Help S3 Issues

Hi,
Noticed a few things with my S3.

It takes ages to charge up. I don't mind charging it up once or ywice a day, but it is the time it takes that gets me- and always seems to be low when I am going out and need the phone. Would the stock S3 charger be not man enough to push a charge in, or have I got a dodgy one.
I am not going to root this phone because I am useless at things like that- leave well alone, but I have read here that program permissions can only be changed when rooted. I have wiped a lot of apps off the phone where the permissions requested go in excess of what is needed. Especially facebook and I don't do twitter at all. Is there any other way to restrict permissions with an un-rooted phone, please ?.
I also read somewhere that it was suggested that the Jellybean update made certain docking stations not work properly.
Is this info correct, please?
Thanks,
Greg

Ordered a genuine Samsung hard wired charger- not USB version like supplied with phone. Will give that a try.
Thanks for the tip.
