I almost can't understand it either :) he he he ...

Jag menade att om man har ROM från andra länder så kanske det påverkar blåtanden? För jag har problem med att folk hör mig men jag hör inte dom när jag har svarat. Köpte precis ett Marque 2 Plantronics för 800:- och så funkar det dåligt :( Tråkigt! :)

I meant that if you have the ROM from other countries so maybe it affects blåtanden? Because I have problems with people hear me but I can not hear them when I answered. Just bought one 2 Plantronics Marque for 800: - and how it works poorly: (Tråkigt! :)

[Galaxy S III General] Theshawty:
Nja, andra länders roms ska inte påverka det så. Om du har problem med samtal är det oftast modemet som jävlas. Testa flasha senaste nordiska modemet eller gå helt till stock nordisk. Då har du även nordiska csc'n då den inte har multicsc.

English:

Well, other countries' roms shouldn't affect it like so. If you've got a problem with in-call audio, it's because of the modem most of the time. Try flashing the latest nordic modem, or go back to the full nordic firmware. Then you'll also get the nordic csc at it doesn't come with multiCSC.

Hi All,

I have a problem with firmware ELLA (BTU) on my Galaxy S3, where the phone loses the network connection and only a power off and restarting the phone sorts out the problem this happens at least 3 times a day.

Any ideas.

EDIT: I came across this just today. After updating to LFB OTA, I decided to give Allshare Play a go. I got my PC and mobile registered but i couldn't access the PC from my phone or the phone from my PC, so i decided to have a look under my settings and found that File Sharing was off and locked.

Ah, that's a shame, though would running rooted stock rom (as in just cf root so stock kernel and everything else) count as "deviate from stock"? :p But for now it looks like you'll have to wait for OTA or wait until you can get to your computer (whichever comes first!)

He advised me to re-flash my firmware at a Samsung Service Center. What a solution!!!
[Galaxy S III General] LenAsh:
All the recent firmware releases recently are basically the same core with varying degrees of overlayed localisation. Therefore any "bugs" will be common as will any performance quirks.

Until there is a major update nothing fundamental will change.

Folk getting hooked on "ChangeList" increments are kidding themselves that ELLA/ELLB/ELLC/EMA1 etc have anything different from each other... apart from the localisations or branding and a meaningless CL number.

Hi, is anyone else having issues with random reboots? i'm using EMA1 but i've had the same problem with the last 3 or 4 firmwares, tried wipes and re-flashes but it always seems to happen.

[Galaxy S III General] raj_p:
Hi,

I had the same problem, I had a SGS III Sapphire black edition. It was made in China. I brought it back to the store and they told me that it was a hardware issue. As I am living in Suriname I had the option of waiting a month for sending it back to Samsung or I had to pay a little amount and get a new. So I took a new phone and this one is running fine. So if you still have warranty just go to a Samsung repair center.

I think you are confused. XXEMA1 has no advantages over XXELLA or XXEKLLC, so poster, quite sensibly, will defer flashing anything over his XXELLC ROM until such time as Samsung actually make some fundamental under-the-hood improvements or a later Android version. Simply flashing one regions' version to another regions' localised version is utterly pointless. Forget Changelists... fools' gold.

Hi,

I just flashed the EMA1 rom from Argentina. I confirm that the keyboard bug is solved in this rom. It doesn't have a larger change list but the problem is solved.
