[HTC Sensation] Walunga:
Hello guys....anybody,

I NEED HELP!

I recently unlocked my HTC on the DEV site. I went ahead to install custom rom - ARHD - I think I did everything right but now my phone restarts and is permanently stuck on the screen with BeatsAudio.

My phone details are:

- HTC Sensation XE unlocked

- PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-ON RL

- HBOOT 1.29.0000

- RADIO 11.23.3504.07_M2

- eMMC BOOT

I ALREADY HAD STOCK ICS ON (from HTC OTA) BEFORE DOING MY CUSTOM ROM INSTALLATION.

Any help guys please...? It's been stuck for two days. I stayed up all night going through steps over and over!!!
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
what recovery are you having ?

if its 4EXT ..then go to recovery ..and enable smartflash

4EXT -> tools-> enable smartflash

then flash the rom again

if you didnt have 4EXT ..then do the "extra 1" step

from this guide

ALSO read the above guide completely ..it will tell you what actually caused your problem and how to avoid it
[HTC Sensation] jslim38:
lets see after youve unlocked your bootloader you should have flashed a rom so you can have root then install 4ext custom recovery with smart flash enabled i hope you have a back up copy of the rom you have flashed because you will have unzip the file and look for the folder that will say boot.img and copy it to the same folder that you have your adb and fastboot driver's in and then open cmd and typ your camand's to get your fastboot driver working and then typ fastboot flash boot boot.img and the typ fastboot reboot and your set enjoy

Hey I'm looking for an ics rom with a combination of aosp apps and s note apps still present. Ideally it would be stock ics with aosp dialer, gallery and text app? Thanks for any help

Search around. Except for the dialer, you can get all AOSP apps to run on your TW ROM. They're all in the Note Sub-forum.

Still waiting to get my blue s3. I gave the shop a call and they said that deliveries have bagun but since almost all pre orders have been blue ones it takes time. I have read aimilar stories from forums so could it be that samsung draw the blue one to sell more white ones too in the beginning?
[Galaxy S III General] norpan111:
Why?
[Galaxy S III General] 0semaj0:
well, do keep in mind that, there is a strong possibility that most pre-orders for white has been processed since the phone was originally launched...with substantially more pre-orders for blue that has yet to be processed? New Zealand was one of the first countries to receive the SGS3 and it has only been about 2 days since the blue units started to be surface on the market...furthermore, the price difference between white and blue would be minimum so Samsung wouldnt intentionally shoot itself on the left foot by releasing just one of the colours when both colours have been heavily marketed and promoted...

I really need help as the phone wifi won't turn on..

I am new to rooting and have installed CF-Root-SGS2_XW_NEE_LPG-v5.5-CWM5 on my s2 phone.. Everything went on smoothly but now WiFi does not turn on.. It only stucks in the Turning on Wifi mode then wifi automatically turns off.. I have already flashed it to its original kernel and to no avail wifi still isn't working.. Can someone please advise what to do? I am desperate here.. Thanks for everyone's help..:(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vixius:
did u change you rom?

if u have stock rom is almost impossible that the kernel mess up wifi

did u install the right version cf root kernel?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] astro12111:
nope my rom is stock one.. All i did was flash the cf root kernel.. And now Wifi does not work... I have already tried the Kernel Cleaner but still it doesn't work...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
hey dude try changing ur kernel

like u can try Siyah v3.3.1 dwnld link below

dwnld the .zip file of the same place it into ur internal sdcard then reboot 2 recovery and flash the same and reboot 2 system and check ur wifi

[Galaxy S III General] Oli2k:
Just received an OTA update to Android. Still shows version 4.0.4 but it looks like it has updated the kernel. Hopefully this is a fix for the cell standby issue. It was only 8.54Mb so it looks promising.

The transition from apps to the home screen when pressing the home key seems loads smoother and faster so that looks like it is one fix :D

Just updated mine via Kies - Home button much more responsive :)
[Galaxy S III General] Michael_P:
Is the predictive text fixed? Meaning does it still erase everything in "My word list" when you reboot.
[Galaxy S III General] skivnit:
is it region specific or global?
[Galaxy S III General] subvertbeats:
I believe its UK (BTU CSC) carrier unbranded, though havent flashed yet.
[Galaxy S III General] Oli2k:
I haven't noticed anything other than the home button seems more responsive yet. My battery is at 81% which is good going for mid-day but i'll give it a charge and see how the cell standby looks.
[Galaxy S III General] floatwinner:
Will this break root?
[Galaxy S III General] Kalifax:
Hi guys, have you noticed that the home button gets more responsive/faster when you disable s-voice. After "double tapping home button to start s-voice" is disabled, it no longer waits for the "second press", and gets to home much faster.

To disable it, start s-voice /menu/settings/
[Galaxy S III General] subvertbeats:
I think it's pretty well know that at least part of the delay is there by design to allow for double press to activate S-Voice.
[Galaxy S III General] mardon85:
I've got a UK non branded S3 and rooted last night. No sign of OTA here when check on the phone. Any idea whats going on?

[Galaxy S III General] kamirza:
Question remains

Those who have tried it, does it break root or do you still have root?
[Galaxy S III General] c0d3x42:
Yes it did break root for me, only on titanium though. Reinstalled it and busybox and all ok now
[Galaxy S III General] mardon85:
Did you get yours OTA or download then flash?
[Galaxy S III General] kamirza:
Not showing

I am on Omega 4.1. No update via phone and Kies tell me that my phone is not supported for OTAs. Is it because of the custom ROM? Anyone having a link for this update.
[Galaxy S III General] v1rtu4l:
i believe most of you simply do not read the graph in the right way...

for the example i attached my battery stat bar..

if i am on 70% battery after 10 hours (since charging it) and it says the cell standby did take 34% of the whole depleted energy this means out of the 30% battery power i lost over the last 10 hours 34% (so a third basically) was due to the cell standby.

34% of the 30% battery loss over 10 hours equals 10,2% of the actual battery loss is due to cell standby. now divide that by 10 hours and you get 1,02% battery drain per hour for the cell/radio standby. not a big value if you take into account that this is still one of the first firmware and modem files for the phone

depending on what you did for that one hour it might be ok.

i see that the screen is pretty high too, so if you spend half an hour downloading stuff via HSPA it's not a high value.

you have 2,5% cell drain per hour, which is not much if you actually used it for data transfer. if it was just idle than it would be much, but as seen be the screen part you obviously used the phone
[Galaxy S III General] v1rtu4l:
tertrtrt
[Galaxy S III General] SlimJ87D:
There is no math or explanation needed. I've been telling people time and time again to have their phone shut wifi off when the phone is asleep.

I've had awesome battery life this way. But when I leave WiFi on, it's not as good. Even if it's better than other phones, it's not as good like how Wifi saved battery on my captivate.

What is awesome about this phone is that it will switch to 3G and only HSPA+ once you go on the internet to save battery in sleep mode. Heck, I've seen it switch to Edge and when I unlocked it it switched over to HSPA+ right away.
[Galaxy S III General] Baldilocks:
As you can see for 3.5 hours, 9% of my battery was drained. Only 22 minutes of screen time. The majority of the rest is Cell Standby..in sleep mode. I tested with Wi-Fi off when asleep and on when asleep and the results are about the same.
[Galaxy S III General] goodie:
still no sign of an update via kies or OTA on three UK unrooted :(
[Galaxy S III General] SlimJ87D:
Can you show us pictures of the other screen where it shows what times wifi was on. I want to look at your slopes.
[Galaxy S III General] Sheeples:
You have to flash it in Odin mate.
[Galaxy S III General] dazbutler1:
Get them much quicker he you debrand mate
[Galaxy S III General] v1rtu4l:
9 % battery consumption in 3 hours, makes 3 % per hour drain. of that 3 % the cell radio was responsible for 39% of that 3%drain/h which calculates to 1,17%

and you deem 1.17 % drain per hour caused by the radio much?

what do people expect around here ?

it is indeed remarkable that using wifi does use more power than 3g... that was always the other way around in earlier devices, but it could well be something that gets fixed in the future
[Galaxy S III General] Baldilocks:
Not saying it's too much but it IS about double of what my GS2 was consuming.

Sent from my GT-I9300 Galaxy S3.
[Galaxy S III General] Sheeples:
Flashed it with Odin and i'm running LF2 everything however, instead of my CSC being BTU, i'm AFR which is Algerian if I'm going by Intratech's thead...Oh well as long as it works I suppose that's the main thing. Just striked me as a bit of an odd one.
[Galaxy S III General] ajftl:
How do I know what's my phone region?
[Galaxy S III General] Sheeples:
Only way I know of doing it so far is by connecting your phone to Kies. It'll give you an output like the picture below.

The 3 letters in brackets after CSC is effectively your branding/area.
[Galaxy S III General] ajftl:
Thanks would do that.

I'm sorry I updated, I'm on a Generic UK SGS3 on Vodafone UK, my Cell Stanby and battery life were perfectly good, now since the update yesterday Cell Standby is top of my list and battery dropped 11% overnight (6.5 hours).

I had auto-sync turned off and my bedroom is a terrible signal area.

Might just roll it back.
[Galaxy S III General] Oli2k:
At least it was ok before the update, before and after this update i've had issues with cell standby usage
[Galaxy S III General] galaxy.S3:
I have just updated mine on vodafone through KIES, did you get those new apps from vodafone about flash player and music store ?

I can also report that the text message bug is still there. When you have read the message it still shows 1 unread message icon on the home screen. :mad:

I have re rooted and may try the stock ROM now don't want vodafone to keep installing crap on my new phone !
[Galaxy S III General] alias_neo:
Nope, like I said, I'm on a Generic UK SGS3, but I use Vodafone. I don't have the SMS bug, I'd bin the sh** Voda firmware and get yourself Generic UK too.
[Galaxy S III General] Oli2k:
+1
[Galaxy S III General] tallguy88:
Running stock o2 firmware, still no update via kies or OTA. Don't want to flash just yet but starting to get itchy fingers!
[Galaxy S III General] ctai320:
This +1. Pretty clears up everything for me. I think that people are seeing that it's more than the screen and constantly on the top that they assume it's eating their battery.

According to the same math, ignoring other factors, my cell standby sucks about 1.64% per hour while my screen sucks about 12%. Granted I had very light usage (ie gmail, whatsapp, some web surfing, gchat), at an assumed 5.5 on screen time, over 1 day of 16 hours before you charge, the total battery usage is 92%. that's about right. This phone lasts forever. It lasts way lower than my other phones except Bb.
[Galaxy S III General] Baxxter13:
Is it possible to flash the new firmware version if you are using another country version? Right now I have i9300xxale8 austria unbranded. Or should I wait till the new update becomes available in my country?

Thanks,
[Galaxy S III General] Oli2k:
Using this formula i'm getting similar

full battery (100%) – battery remaining (5%) = used battery total (95%) / 100 = 0.95 x cell standby (41%) = 38.95% used by cell standby / time on in hours (26 hours) =

1.5% an hour used by cell standby

The overall battery time is better than my S2 by miles so I'm happy just annoying seeing cell standby eating through so much power.

Root was lost, going to fix that now.

[Galaxy S III General] alias_neo:
~1.64% per hour if I calculated right.

(battery at 5% after 1 day, 10 hours, cell standby of 53%)

Unfortunately I have poor signal at home and even worse signal at work

I also spent a lot of my evening tonight out of signal.
[Galaxy S III General] Oli2k:
The signal strength doesn't seem to make much difference to how much it uses from what I've seen
[Galaxy S III General] alias_neo:
It should do, the cell radio will increase output power in low signal conditions to try maintain the connection before eventually at certain levels dropping to the next protocol down.

Out of interest Alias, why then does a KIES upgrade work on a rooted device and not OTA ?

My S3 is rooted and stalled in recovery when trying to install it. However when I did it though KIES it seemed to work ok.

Id be grateful of any feedback.

Cheers
[Galaxy S III General] Oli2k:
Kies should work fine on a rooted phone
[Galaxy S III General] alias_neo:
If im not mistaken, kies does a full update not a patch like OTA, and it's hard to patch something that is modified.
