Kudos to HeadAmp !
Unlike a lot of USB DAC manufacturers, HeadAmp has tested and fixed the Galaxy S3/Note2 - HeadAmp Pico interworking issue.
HeadAmp Pico is one of the most interesting USB DAC/amp:
"At present have the HeadAmp Pico, RSA Intruder, and Leckteron UHA-6S.MKII. Was using the Pico with my US S3 and just love its sound, the other two are truly excellent in their own right, but their sound signatures just don't gel for me quite as much as the Pico."

News on Pico DAC & Pico DAC/Amp compatibility with Samsung Galaxy Note II and Galaxy S3 (International version)
=======================================================================================
It's been reported that the Pico DAC/Amp doesn't work with the Galaxy Note II or Galaxy S3 (international version) -- except with a powered hub -- but does work just fine with the north american Galaxy S3.
I've acquired a Galaxy Note II to figure out the problem.
Progress has been made and it is working right now. However, it's likely that a fix will require:
- A small component swap on the Pico circuit board which does not change performance
or possibly
- A custom-made USB cable
I prefer the first solution. Once a solution is finalized, you may send your Pico to me to have the change made, free of charge, just pay the shipping costs. New orders will ship with the change already in place .
Those who are 'in charge' of the compatibility lists of phones/DACs feel free to update the info.
