[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solidsnew:
think you are alone... Yesterday, beach day: From ten o clock with 100% brightness, about 40 minutes surfing with dolphin browser, total in amount 35 minutes facebook, 30 sms, 9 calls all about 2-6 minutes and some recording of the soccer game; the rest of the time the phone was on standby. Coming home with 80% left....

what says your battery settings? what stands by "battery in standby"? How much takes "android system", how many apps are listed in total? Do you have battery save mode on?=> Try to turn it off. Do you have auto brightness? Turn it off, set the display to 40-50% and make a widget on home with settings to 100% so you can read under heavy sun. You are outside the day?=> turn the wifi off....

Tell us more and post your results, the comment that your device is a bucket full of crap is bull**** because the S3 has one of the best battery and settings in smartphone business!...

Greetings,

Snew

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DSA:
no-one can give you a legit answer as you haven't bothered to tell us anything about what rom/kernel you are using, what you have installed, whether you have any syncs switched on..

why leave wifi on overnight? thats gives apps the chance to update in the background

have you looked at bbs stats?

Stop using Wifi, do not leave it on. Wifi is the culprit.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmd512:
I still suspect this may be router related though. When I had my crappy Netgear, I would get strange periods of battery drain on my SGS2 when WIFI was left on. That just about all disappeared once I upgraded to an Asus RT-N16 running Tomato, and now, I don't get any drain on my SGS3 as well when I leave WIFI (set to "Always On" under Advanced WIFI Settings) idling.

You have something that is sucking power, and you need to find it
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlimJ87D:
I too think it's router related. It can possibly be due to Wifi dual banding in some routers that support it. Faster internet with less battery life.

I have been flashing only roms by CyanogenMod and MIUI for the past 6 months or so. Now, I've been thinking of flashing the Lite'ning Rom. But I have a few doubts, which are as follows:

1. Will I be able to flash CM 9/MIUI/Sense roms through CWM as usual or will I have to flash them through Odin?

2. Why is it necessary to flash it through Odin only and not through CWM as other roms?

3. Can you please give me a link to download the latest version of Lite'ning Rom as I'm unable to find it?

A response to my query will be much appreciated!

1. I'm quite sure you can. It would be stupid if you couldn't. Correct me if I'm wrong.

2. I'm not sure. But for some people this method is easier than flashing through CWM. So that shouldn't be a big problem.

Does the 3.6 version have any known issues with it or is it quite stable as compared to the previous versions?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krnrdstrm:
Remember to click that "Thanks" button. :)

You mean 3.2? Usually newer versions are more stable than the older ones. That's why they're made! :D It's possible that the new features may be a bit buggy but that shouldn't be a big problem.

Internet pass through, as in wired teathering? Isn't that already included in there? I've never used it, but ive seen it as an option. or are you talking about reverse teathering? or even wireless hot spot????

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] evilbarcode:
I see no reason why you shouldnt have the update. Have you at any stage reflashed firmware with flashtool?

If not then.....

The only reason could be is that your carrier is holding back the release so they can add the crap too it.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] S4G1E:
I flashed 0.42 to be able to root it..but i had some issues upgrading to 0.62...

Can that be a reason?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Manipulation:
I'm having the same problem. The latest update PC Companion is saying I can have is .62 but not ICS. Never flashed the kernel, only rooted it. When I try updating to .62 though it won't let me update keeps saying there's an error. Do I need to have .62 to upgrade or not? I'm on O2.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] S4G1E:
i am having exactly the same problem...:confused:

my pc companion says i'm updated and before the ics rollout it asked me to update firmware to 0.62

current firmware:0.42
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Manipulation:
I'd update to .62 but every time I try it says theirs an error and is unable to do it :confused:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] MSTHETERROR:
Both of you try doing an ota update, i.e using update center from your mobile itself then you'll have 0.62 and also you will keep root :)

I'm going to try flash the updated version to my phone using Flashtool. I can't see any reasons why it wouldn't work but I'll let you know if it does or not.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] MSTHETERROR:
You can't update to ICS ota. I asked you to try updating to 0.62 ota as you had problems updating to 0.62. If you are flashing and want to keep root access, then remember to uncheck 'wipe data' while flashing :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] S4G1E:
upgrading firmware to 0.62 gives me that error..

i want to ask you all smthing...

How i flash the 0.62 fw via flashtool..? :confused:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Manipulation:
I meant that I tried updating to .62 OTA and it says I need to connect it to the PC. So will flashing from .58 to 4 work then and keep root? Not so bothered about it not keeping root but as long as it would work.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Manipulation:
I now have 4.0 and on root. Followed this, no need to update to .62 or follow the rooting procedures if your phone is already rooted.

Hey guys,

Its been 4-5 months since I've got this phone and since then it has been in a TPU case. I regularly clean the case, removing all the dust and all but I've now noticed that there are wear marks on the phone's back. And I can't seem to remove them, you can see them clearly under light and it really doesn't look good to me. Any way I could get rid of these? They seem removable but they don't go! Any liquid recommended? Anything to use?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zetsumeikuro:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] costlyman:
My advice is don't install the cases. Those r the culprits which marks ur phone with scratches. Its usually the friction between the case and the phone and if tiny dust particles are then its like sanding paper rubbing on ur phone

No, i would stay with the case. In the long run, a longer phone life is better then a few scuffs or scratches. Believe it or not, i used makeup remover on a tissue. It worked pretty well for me.

Noo! The nexus s uses power and volume up at the same time. just the two buttons.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
This. You'll need to unlock first (if it's not already unlocked), then flash a custom recovery. No need to flash the kernel via fastboot, they come in flashable zips and a working kernel is part of every ROM you will find.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlazkano:
Hello, thanks for the replys.

I have unlocked the bootloader. I have this file: cm-9-20120618-NIGHTLY-crespo.zip

With other devices, I use to flash the kernel with fastboot:

# ./fastboot flash boot boot.img

Then, enter to recovery mode and install the ROM and Google Apps.

Is this the way to install CM9.0 on the Nexus S?

Thanks and best regards.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
Flashing the zip installs the kernel too. No need to do it separately.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlazkano:
Thanks for the reply.

Sorry for the newby question, how must I install the zip file?

Thanks and best regards.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
Through CWM (or other) preferred recovery. As i said, your phone will need to be unlocked and you'll need to flash the custom recovery via fastboot. After this, boot into recovery and flash the .zip file.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlazkano:
Thanks again.

How do I flash the custom recovery via fastboot? Sorry, but with the Xperia devices I have no problem, I just go to fastboot mode to flash the kernel, then reboot and enter recovery mode to flash the ROM.

Kind regards.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
This rooting guide gives you all the basics. How to setup fastboot and Nexus S drivers, how to unlock if you are not already (note you lose ALL PERSONAL DATA on the phone unlocking - even sdcard) and how to flash a custom recovery. Only the last part is actually rooting the phone so you can ignore that for your purposes, the rest are necessary.

The only difference is you'll want the latest custom recovery. Note if you reboot into stock android it will replace the custom recovery (delete /system/etc/install-recovery.sh to stop this) each boot. After this, boot into recovery, install zip from sdcard and select the ROM.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlazkano:
Thanks.

I unlock it and now I have a clean device.

When I try to go to recovery it just restart, I can not go to recovery mode.

Am I missing any step?

Best regards.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlazkano:
I got it, just install the recovery this way:

# ./fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-crespo.img

I just install CM9.0 and it works great.

Hi,

I shutdowned (sounds strange) my phone and now I'm not able to start it again.

It stucked at the LG logo (with some blue in the background) and didn't do anything.

I entered CWM wiped Dalvik Cache and Cache Partition and reflashed the ROM and the Kernel, after that it boots as normal but instead of asking me for my PIN it just redoes the boot animation.

I tried flashing some other ROMs but always ended up at this point (Removing SD-Card and SIM-Card and wiping battery stats had no effect).

Are there any ideas how to solve the problem without a Factory Reset (I didn't perform a backup in a while)?
