Will this product work if my charging port on my S3 isn't functional?

Absolutely. That is why I got the product. I no longer plug my phone in to charge it.

As long as the port is the problem and not some underlying issue with the charging system, this should work fine I got this to reduce wear and tear on my charging port on my phone for that very reason.
1728082
YES! This is the exact reason for more getting this device. It works of some contact points on the back of the phone, under the cover.

DEFINITELY! It bypasses the port completely. However, you prob should look at it charges slower than direct cord to the charging port. and you will need to buy extra 'plates' to have ability to charge your phone in more places. Lastly, start backing up your stuff so if you do get your phone replaced, you don't have to be totally out of luck.

Unlikely. The S2 and the S3 differ significantly in dimensions and overall shape. The charger wraps around the phone very snugly and because of the snugness the phone is supported upright. While the S2 might technically "fit", you run the risk of the phone being supported by the USB port in the phone itself, which could lead to significant problems, including permanent damage, to the phone.Find a dock that is especially for the S2.

I am not sure if it will work but I will share that I purchased this for my S3 and it stopped working out of no where after second use...

You can try and others charger also use the description "Travel Charger for Samsung Galaxy S3/S4/Note 2 and Other Smartphones". Also you can look for others by searching and will find other options that strictly tell you are for S3/S4. The only issue could be more time needed to charge but it will do anyway.

I am not sure. I have the S3. If the battery on the S4 is bigger, then it will not charge it.

I cannot answer, the question but logic says since this is a adapter the port on the phone needs to be working correctly to have this work correctly, my recommendation is to take it to one of those place that fix I products and get a new back put on it and then the charge adapter should work, Just a Note, it is clearly stated that this is not a Apple supported product, you will get warnings pretty constantly when you are using it.

Electrically, the USB 3.0 connector will work no problem. The issue with the S5 is the USB 3.0 port cover. The S5 port cover will have to be removed to be able to use this dock. If you remove the port cover, you phone will no longer be waterproof.I recommend just using the USB 3.0 cable that came with the phone and not trying to dock.

Honestly have no idea, as I do not know what kind of charger plug Galaxy S3 Accepts. However, it works so fine with iPhone 4/4s/5 and now 5/C and 5/S that wherever I find it I try to buy a piece, even to gift it to my friends. For 5, 5/C and 5/S you need to get that 30pin to lightning converter plug from apple store. Let me see if I can find an S3 from one of my friends and will give you a feedback...

My daughter has an S3 and has used the charger and it worked fine.. It is a standard microUSB connector. According to www.phonearena.com both the S3 and S4 use the microUSB connector. http://www.phonearena.com/phones/Samsung-Galaxy-S4_id7597 and http://www.phonearena.com/phones/Samsung-Galaxy-S-III_id6330

It wouldn't work on my S3. The batteries were different. The charger would get crazy hot & never would show fully charged.

I only had an S3. I have a nokia ikon now and it works. I would imagine any phone would work as long as the charger can plug on the bottom of the phone

It should work for all the S3 models. Look for the two prongs next to your battery

Yes, maybe is the best solution. But you need to find the right one, because the receiver for the phone is diferent in S3 from the S4.The charger are all the same.Sorry for my english, I speak spanish.

While it may charge, I had data transfer issues with this older style cable on an S3 so I'm going to say the same would probably happen on a even newer phone.

I only have the S3 version so not sure if it would work or not. They have the same port, though not sure it will charge well or not for that version, sorry.

Check the charging light is on, if it is you may have got a dud! It should work

I have both the S3 and S5. The S3 uses the smaller USB Micro connector, but the S5 also permits an USB3 wider micro connector which provides additional communication about charging between the charger and the phone. If this unit comes with the newer USB3 cable, the cable will NOT fit into the S3 phone. As standard Micro USB cable would work.
