Hi, just traded iphone in on a new S3 yesterday. Pretty happy with it so far. I did notice a few things that weren't on there when I got it and wonder if anyone has had a similar experience. When I drag my finger on the screen, it started leaving a line following the swipe on the screen. Also, there is a line of letters and #'s (some highlighted in red) across the notification bar at the top. They change as I navigate to different pages. They remind me of like coordinates changing as your location changes. Do these sound familiar to anyone?
 
Welcome tivicak, glad to have you aboard!

If i can't help you enough you could try the Galaxy S3 subforum appropriate to your carrier or Android Lounge - Android Forums

Anyhow I have seen this before, which is weird it's in the Developer Options, which i thought was only available if the phone was rooted, but the thing i remember is that it was in there, here is the location in my phone of the thing you need to turn off.

Settings > Developer Options > Pointer Location > Uncheck it
 
Welcome to the site, I will direct you to your device forum for the proper support and help see below I am sure someone will best square you away there, goods luck and enjoy the site.
