The update bring the brightness bar in your notification and fix some bugs but you most probably can't update it! I just got the OTA update and it downloaded the file (87 mb if i'm not mistaken) and then restarted to the recovery to install it. It started installing the firmware but on 26% it came up with verification failed and rebooted system. It couldn't install the new firmware cause it was rooted i think! so don't know what should i do!

Hey guys what's with the sound/vibrate/mute profiles not working properly?

If I put it on silent it still has sound. I've had to change the sound manually every time.

Suggestions?
[Galaxy S III General] poida97:
ok, it wouldn't find the OTA update after I cleared the notification. So I upgraded through Kies, it worked on the second attempt.

.... and lost root access!
[Galaxy S III General] siavash8562:
Yeah it worked for me too. Didn't work with OTA but went fine with kies. Lost my root access and Google now though, so have to root it back again.

Working fine here. I flashed LG8, factory reset, then OTA to LH1 and its fine.
[Galaxy S III General] wt230076:
Anyone know what the best stock Australian combo is?

Using the I9300XXALF2 pack from sammobile and it seems to be good but there are a few bugs with the keyboard and t9 input. just curious to see if there are any better stock looking rom combos out there.

Cheers.
[Galaxy S III General] Lonski:
Maybe its the full rom install that screws it up and the OTA that leaves it untouched. I installed the full install as I haven't access tot the OTA update yet and my docked apps are unable to be changed. Full wipe makes no difference.

Tried the firmware from Samobile, and the small update through Kies, both lock the docked apps on the homescreen.
[Galaxy S III General] Kangburra:
I have had the latest JB leak for 12 hours and so far all I needed was a browser fix and I did the wifi fix anyway. Very stable and fast. Battery use seems the same as the ICS ROM.

Good JB ROM to Flash..

hi

I flashed my GT-i9300T yesterday, and well it worked fine as it I used it for a while, customised it a bit rebooted a few times, then it died. SO I'm going to buy a new one and try fix the old one and sell it off or something.

I'm assuming a bad flash, so I have a USB recovery jig in the mail, I tried making one but the pins on the USB are way too small and Im not sure if the resistors are right.

Anyway, I flashed my S3 with SuperNexus, left the modem stock and as you can see it appears to have bricked. Dunno why it took a few hours to do.

So seeing its a Telstra phone, is there a good jelly bean ROM to flash onto it that is known to work? I dont want to ruin ANOTHER phone.
[Galaxy S III General] priyana:
just hold on for a few more days. I am sure the final JB official will be out soon, judging from the leaks so far.
[Galaxy S III General] thisispete:
But then I'll still have to wait for Telstra to approve though right?
[Galaxy S III General] peteri8706:
Can't wait for the JB release as well. I'm sure it will rock on the S3 :good:
[Galaxy S III General] priyana:
Sorry, I thought you were just looking for stable JB ROM to flash.

Then yeah, you have to wait for Telstra to roll out.

For me I would be flashing a rooted CWM flashable one.

And I bet that will be available the day or a day after the official release anywhere in the world.

Edit: BTW, I actually owned a Voda T model but running CheckROM v5 on Optus network. No issue flashing non T firmware on T device.

Currently i have used Checkrom V2, V3.5, V4 and now V5 and i just keeps getting better.

Does anyone know what "modem patch from chip vendor" means?

I'm trying to find any differences other than modem.bin that might be included to T model firmwares that might affect 850mhz behaviour
[Galaxy S III General] kamalmawa:
I think it's the same patch BLG firmware came with months ago making old T modems such as LF2 incompatible with latest firmwares. Some parts of the phone such as GSM chips & camera Samsung doesn't have sources or license to release any sources(closed source) so they wait for the chip manufacture for bug fixes and software improvements

For those in Australia looking for a car dock with usb charging and audio and thinking about the Infuse 4G option, a cheaper option than amazon is a US ebayer they're selling for $43 AUD shipped.

[Galaxy S III General] priyana:
the Infuse 4G is a more angular device, not so rounded.

Is this cradle a precise fit to our I9300 ?
[Galaxy S III General] duskdevilza:
Has anyone received the second service release from Vodafone AU?

If so, has it improved anything? Is it even worth it?

[Galaxy S III General] nikorette:
As you can see it's fits and is a pretty good fit. Reports say it hasn't fallen out while driving and puts our S3 in dock mode right away.

As Samsung hasn't brought out an official car dock this is the next best thing.

Ok I'll try to clear it up:

There are now three generations of roms A B and D (no idea what happened to C)

A modems are ONLY compatible with A roms B and D modems are compatible with each other. Jelly bean and ICS so JB will work with ICS B modems but not A modems. Currently you have an A modem so you need any B or D firmware modem. Most carriers have already updated to B firmwares. Any modem from. Late June is a B modem.

It would randomly crash on me, so the phone would reboot frequently. Had real issues with certain apps just shutting themselves down randomly as well.

Just checking to see if anyone with the unbranded Australian edition have received the update with the brightness control yet? I've only seen one update so far and it doesn't have the brightness control in the notification bar.

Some of the carrier branded ones have received this update, why not the unbranded!?

I haven't had any problems with it. I know with Gmail in particular, you had to go to Paranoid settings and adjust the resolution layout down for it to work, or else it'd crash.

Personally I think it's a firmware issue as SGS2 never had this "problem". Why the heck should it read 99% instead or 100% when the charger disconnected on full! We shall see in future firmware releases if it fixed.....

We all want accurate battery reporting? Deleting batt stats is a myth, and the only way is to run a few full uninterrupted charge cycles. Even so, the above still happens. :eek:

---------- Post added at 09:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:25 PM ----------

I see you tested during "peak hour". Far from accurate, a obviously will be the slowest speeds etc. Testing at different locations and time of day will render any test results worthless.

Now immediately test the other modem(s)..............

What were your dBm & ASU for each modem? The lower the numbers, the better the signal/connection (not neccessarily better speed etc)

yea i tried ARHD, actually i tried almost everything, but OMEGA has definately been the best so far, plus they have 2 way call recording built into the phone.apk and i find that handy. plus they update almost every day, the thread has about 1800 pages. definately the most active rom i have seen. bonus is that it is still samsung based ROM and not AOSP or AOKP. its insanely fast on JB even with the stock ROM, wait until siyah kernel comes out and it will be crazy OC to 1600

Next year the rights for more of the under 900mhz frequency go on auction. The actual 4G LTE should be rolling out in the last quarter of next year for the 3 operators (Telstra, Optus, VodaHutch) By then newer more powerful phones will be release for sure.

Don't forget Samsung are releasing an international 4G Quad core monster later this year. Same specs as the Korean just all around the globe. GT-I9305 is the model code I think.

You DO NOT need to have a rooted phone to flash leaked XXDLI1 jelly bean rom... one less thing to worry about. I flashed mine WITHOUT doing a full wipe and it works fine. Retained my all my apps minus Vodafone apps. You do lose navigon though but you can reinstall from play store for free. I flashed from Vodafone 4.0.4 Maintenance Release 2 via Odin.

Just make sure you back up everything that is important to you like contacts, photos, videos, music etc just in case you DO need to do a full wipe if you run into problems.
