it has been out for a loooong time, there is another device similar to the Beam was on July, the other one was on March
both are for Europe market
they don't seem to be very popular
they are from the 8000 family, although the spec are very close to the Galaxy S 9000 family

Few weeks back I came across a review of this phone on youtube. Even though it was announced early this year (and GSM arena says its already available), I didn't find any information indicating that this phone is actually available on the market. I was looking for it's price.

good idea
Just bought mine a week ago from StarHub (the official retailer for galaxy beam).
I second the subforum idea. How about starting a google group as well since the community is so small.
For those who wish to purchase the phone:
You need to place a reservation at StarHub Center before making the purchase. It takes about a week before your phone is ready for collection.
I was lucky enough to get it immediately because someone cancelled his reservation.
waiting for mine, deseperatly ....
i'll check with Admins and Sr Mods to see if they want to create a new forum for it
That's great! Thanks man.
nocomp: you may try bugging their hq at cuppage road. They might just have an extra handset lying around like mine. Haha
i ve bought it from a local shop in singapore, they were agree to send it to me to france.
still waiting for the delivery...... the singapore post tracking service, isn t much alive since 2 days......
i guess that ll be a change from my nexus, what i am pissed of, is that you can t use an app that use camera and projector in the same time
it seems that what has to be done, (part of find a way to upgrade it to froyo):
get gps working when projector is on
get projector working when camera is on
can you tell me if the galaxy beam has also the tv out like galaxy s?
best regards
herve
I have some bad news for you. Samsung has officially stopped software support for that device last month and said there's no plans for official froyo for it as there's just not enough beams out there to warrent the support as it was only sold in Singapore and very small numbers. They now have all development on tablet and galaxy s models. Google for more info. I read that last month someplace

hi
thxx a lot, that news has been goin on here and there fr a while, surely some ppl can adapt 2.2 to the beam model.
i finally received mine )))
bad news, impossible to install an application from android market :'(
never happend before with the nexus, i get the message "unable to download" either i am in wifi or 3g
any idea why?
herve
Hmm never had a problem with market. Have you tried replacing the stock market app with a generic one from ipmart? Perhaps it's locked down to Singapore or something.
Topic moved to General until and if a new proper forum comes into place for this device.
hi,
well i ve took sim card off n sdcard off, and then it was working over wifi.
put the simcard back again and market was working.
no idea wtf happend.
hi,
how can i know what software update is current?
my version is 2.1 update 1
I8520DXJ11
kernel 2.6.29-zeus1
can t find in the setting menu the update section
thx for your help
btw i ve found this, anybody tried it?
http://shomblingteam.blogspot.com/2010/08/samsung-i8520-galaxy-beam.html
My phone is running the same firmware version as yours. It's released on 1 Sept which is more recent than the July version on that blog.
hi,
thx for the news, so if there is an update it ll appear in the "about" section right?
do you know any trick/tweak for allow to run gps when using projector?
herve
Probably, but I doubt there will be any more updates since the beam is not getting froyo. Hopefully I'm wrong...
I'm not aware of any tricks but if you have the time and expertise try editing the source code? Haha I'm no expert either.
Sorry if it has been answered, but I could not find it. Does anyone know if Samsung has an official site to order their S3 accessories? I looked on their site and only found up to the S2.
Mainly looking to purchase the official USB Dock, unless someone knows another site I can grab it from.
Thanks!
The Zenis Dock is very popular at the minute..
Most Official Products are not available yet,here is a few websites with alternatives
MobileFun - http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/cat/Samsung-Galaxy-S3.htm
Clove - http://www.clove.co.uk/accessories/samsung/samsung-galaxy-s3
Sorry to crash tread.
does the official dock / other docks be able to hold S3 with back casing on?
If you look at the 2nd video in the gallery it shows it working with cases on.

Official Samsung cases here - quite a lot of them!!

OK, not all of them are available but some are (or are shortly)
Samsung Galaxy S3 / S III Cases and Screen Protectors
Check out the Cool accessories for the samsung mobiles from the one stop shop of SF Planet. Its really Good. I like it.
Here's the official samsung accessories site:
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SGH-I747MBBATT-accessories
That's linked from the AT&T version but I'd imagine it would be the same list for all the versions. You can select the carrier version on this page and then on the cellphone page you can click accessories in the upper right:

Hi Guys,
i just bought a LG G3 and got a Samsung gear S as a gift, and i'm really sad to know that its not working together.
I found some instructions to make it work together but i don't get notification and things like that.. does someone have something new to get full access to the watch with this cellphone?
thanks.
Well ive ordered and cant wait! Also i am the very first robin thread which officially makes me the number one fan!
Yes, waiting is killing all of us, but at least we finally got the forums here, yay!
New Home..

In the shipping costs VAT and taxes to ship the phone out of the US are included, that's why it is so expensive
Just ordered mine last night so now I patiently wait......
I love this phone but first i'm wait the kernel/device tree source
