Yes it does work with the Samsung S3 I have this installed in my phone (S3) and it works great. Lots of storage and fast response times.

Unfortunately the controls work onky with iProducts. I returned my earphones. I tried the model down (450 I believe) but they also didnt work. I then got Mobster DNA with "universal remote" but those also did NOT work with my Samsung phone! For now I gave up!

Most services work. I did find that SMS images would not be received with the standard message app. Nor did it receive any android updates.I rooted mine, set s-off, and installed lollipop and it works like a dream!

This device works fine in Android, though you need an app to make it work. "You Are Here GPS" is one of the apps, though there are a few others. You'll also need the PL2303 app (it adds the driver needed for Android to recognize the device).

Yes, I have two of these and they work with an Android app remotely - setup is a little tricky if you don't read instructions - but if you do read the instructions carefully it's easy.

I have an GS3 with an HDMI kit purchased on Amazon that does not work well, the S3 is sort of known for terrible MHL implementation. I don't think this actually supports Mirror Link. I have had two of them (AVHX8500's), one didn't work with appradio mode at all, with no firmware updates available. Got a second for another car, and it mirrors my phone display, so it could have been added at some point but not supported in older models. Watch out for the revision I guess. Look into ARLiberator on the Play store, that appears to add display mirror with touch control, but requires root.

It does work with Android. I have a Galaxy S3 and it works great with my phone.

It worked fine with my Samsung Galaxy S2 before upgrading it from Android 2.3 to Android 4.0, the software works on Android OS v2.2 (Froyo) and v2.3.6 (Gingerbread) BUT does not work on my Android devices running 3.0 onwards. It still works on my Glaxy tab and the old Galaxy phone (i5510) though.

Sorry, I never hear of a OTG until I received your comment. Your question is interesting. I'll check myself whether this or any thumb drive will work with a cell phone via an OTG.

I bought the Torque app for Android and paired the device with my phone over Bluetooth. The disc that came with it, I tossed. I read that it was full of viruses, so I never risked it.

I have a Galaxy S3, and have been wondering the same thing. I've searched a lot for the same info. As far as I know there aren't any units that are android friendly. Most are compatible with Iphone. You should still be able to stream music, or play music from the phone through the unit using an aux or usb connection. I just don't think it will show any artist info on screen.

I sync mine with my Samsung Android phone. My friend uses her iPhone to sync hers. No issues.

Assumig your phone has NFC, check to see if your phone can download the Samsung app to program them.I use an app called trigger which works just the same. If you can download it, you can program it. Trigger is also a really nice free app to get into some more automation. Look up tasker which gives you full access to the abilities of your phone

Yes it works great hooked up to a usb otg cable on both my galaxy s3 and my rca walmart black friday tablet both running android 4.2+. With the gamepad, cheap tablet, and stand, it makes for a great snes/nes/gb portable emulation system. Fantastic Controller. Needs no drivers for any OS i've tried so far.
