Good Afternoon Fellow Members,

I work in a independant mobile phone retail store. We are seeing a hell of a lot of broken screens on the Galaxy S3 handset. I was just wondering if this was a common problem with this handset (I use a HOX myself). It would be interesting to see how many people here have had a simillar experience.

Thanks

Very true. Not even a Galaxy S I or II either.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] member68:
FYI: The S3 uses a Super AMOLED display. LCD is a different technology.

Concerning your question: Since the screen is rather big, it's rather easy to break it, if you drop it on the floor. Using a case can help a lot, but it won't save you 100% of the time either. Most of the time, it's just the user being careless with their phone.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nosferatu.:
I get this every so often but now it's happening more frequently.

I get this when I boot into CWM recovery (v 5.5.0.4). I've had this happen before on other ROMs too. Currently I'm on ShoStock2. Usually I just reboot CWM and it's fine/gone but now it won't budge.

Anyways this is what I get at the bottom:

CWM Touch v.5.5.0.4.

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

Is this something to be concerned about?

EDIT: I wiped the cache partition and error is gone but I'd still like to know what gives with this...I did some basic searching and couldn't find a clear cut answer.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tocirahl:
It's nothing to be worried about, it just happens when you switch kernels sometimes due to permissions I believe, but wiping cache (like you did) fixes it.

Hey guys, wondered if you could help me. My phones only charging when its turned off, and when i connect via USB it wont pick my phone up, but when its off and i connect it via USB it detects it but doesn't know what it is. Comes up with USB device not recognized... either way, how do i get my phone to start charging properly again?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leoingle:
bump this. I am having the same problem. when booted it, it wont charge at all, nor can a computer recognize it. The only way to get it to charge at that point is to yank the battery for at least 10 seconds and put it back in. While it is off, it will charge. WTF??? :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dh33r4j:
I had the same issue. It happened after a few drops of water got into the phone through the earpiece. First the audio stopped working. The earpiece and the speaker wouldn't work. Only headphones would work. A day later phone worked perfectly but I faced the issue that you stated. I reflashed the boot loader, the radio, the kernel, the ROM and RIL. Now everything is working fine.

My girlfriend decided to wash the sheets.. white note, hard to see on white sheets. My phone popped in my head, so i looked around.. it wasn't in the 3-4 places it normally was, and i remembered it was on the bed. We ran to the washer, waited for the lock to disengage from our front-loader, and bam.. soft white glow from the back. The screen was still on, so I immediately removed the soft case, cover and battery. Pulled the sim, sd card, even the stylus. It's now in a ziplock bag full of rice, sitting on a chair in the sun. Any thing im missing? Should i leave it for 24 hours? Longer?

Don't take this the wrong way, but I love reading stories like this. Not because I enjoy the misfortune of others (well not in this case atleast), but because it reassures me that I'm not the only one that **** like this happens to.

As for what your doing, it's a great start. Make sure you flip it around some to move the water around. I simply can not believe that the screen was on, that's amazing. Expect some sensor damage, but you may have made it to it in time to save it. I've dropped phone into ponds and managed to save them, yet had ones suffer permenant damage from a glass of water spilling on them. It's a game of chance. If your feeling really froggy, you can open it up. Then let dry or even wipe down with alcohol to get any excess water out. Regardless of the outcome, sounds like the GF owes you some serious "compensation" for the emotional stress and turmoil she has put you through.

Edit: if you decide to open, it'll require a very small philips screwdriver, one small enough for glasses screws. Canned air/compressor helps remove excess water too.

Try leaving it for least 48hrs. Then examine it to make sure there isn't moisture. When you feel its completely dried..turn on the phone. Make sure to clean the battery terminals.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] studacris:
Rice is much much much too large to actually be effective as a Desiccant in most cases such as this.

The best course of action is to immediately disassemble the phone, take some rubbing alcohol and a q-tip over the entire board, the alcohol will mix with the water causing it to evaporate significantly faster.

Then leave it on top of an upward pointing fan over night.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Clark Joseph Kent:
IDK if it would help...I took my kids phone when he jump in our pool...:crying:

did the rice thinng for a day...:D

since it gets like 109-115 in our area in the summer (SouthWest AZ)...I put it in the dash of my truck mid day, face down battery out ...for 2-3 hours...it dry out completely, almost melted...LOL.... but it still worked!

It was not a note but still a phone, so IDK maybe it will help...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
It actually works fine. He placed in bag and left in a warm location. This causes the humidity to be absorbed by the rice. I've used this trick many times with rather good results.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] studacris:
The grains are still too large to get inside the Damn case...if you want to be 100% sure it's dry you have to take it apart, and at that point rice is slow as hell compared to alcohol..

It may work, but it's not the best way...And it could still leave moisture in there that could cause issues in the future.

Just like walking 100 miles will get you to your destination...but i bet you would prefer to to have a better form of transportation.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
LOL, my bad. I assumed that when you said it wouldnt work that you meant it wouldnt work, not that it would work but not the best possible method. Just like when most say it will work, we didn't realize we meant that it would "get inside the Damn case". Like I said, my bad. Didn't mean to offend you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] studacris:
Lol sorry if i sounded upset...

I repair drive thru systems for a living..Just had this exact conversation with a customer that dropped a headset in the dishwasher, who just kept insisting that rice would be perfect.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
NP, my point is its better then nothing. And by "steaming" it in a closed container it helps keep it in a very dry envoronment. I actually have a parts cooker in my garage used for when something can't be opened and also serves as a baking oven for refinishing firearms (wife got sick of me using her oven)

Yes alcohol is better if you know what your doing with it (suggested it myself earlier), but i've seen people do damage by soaking things in it. I started my career years ago as a hardware tech and have used rice and silica many many times as a last option.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] capite:
keep rice warm

Maybe now you won't have to wipe your cache next time you install a new ROM? /jk

But seriously, I've heard that (when your phone isn't in the sun) you could put it in a regular oven with just the light on (NO HEAT), which should keep it warm.

When I dunked my Skyrocket in the tub, I put my baggie of rice+phone on top of my PC which is in a cabinet. That kept it nice and toasty but not too hot, and it got working again after a couple of days.

Like someone else above mentioned, you should shake it to try to get some of the excess water out; there might be a lot stuck in there that will come out with some vigorous moves.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Gramurai:
Update! :*(

Well... i left it in rice overnight. The next morning i put it out in the sun, in said ziplock full of rice. The heat really helped get some of the moisture out, but it just wasnt doing the trick to the point that i felt comfortable slapping a battery back in it. So.. i headed to a bigbox and grabbed some rubbing alcohol, put on my big boy pants, and set to work. I found a tutorial on Youtube to take it apart...

The Food Lion MVP card was used to seperate the housing from the frame...

Cleaned everything.. there was corrosion everywhere. I couldn't get all the way to the screen, and i know there were some remnants, but i couldn't get to it without risking cracking the glass. I wouldn't want to have to pay to replace the glass as an ebay one is around $200 and a new phone i've found will cost me TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS through my insurance. I've paid for this once, i'd rather not have to pay for it again.

So, i put it all back together, and...

VOILA! It boots. The screen looks just as amazing as ever. Touch works. Wifi is connected. The only issue i've found so far is that it i have no data from AT&T. No calls, no sms, no web. *sigh* Going to sort through APN issues and settings with my rom, thinking of flashing the recently updated KANG, but i might want to consider setting it back to stock for an insurance claim. IDK. Thanks for all the feedback and wishes, love me some XDA.

I've never used rice.. I've honestly had every single device since I was a windows mobile nerd come back to life by immedietly pulling the battery then soaking the device in rubbing alcohol then placing it on top of the vents of an old crt monitor. (Where the heat rises) and its yet to fail me. I work around a lot of water and cuastic chemicals.

I've done this at least to say 4 times to my own personal devices and recommended it to friends I work with in the same situation.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dumbquestion:
Just in case anyone finds themselves in a like-situation, I have saved 2 phone with rice in a bag, after cramming my phone in the hose end of a shop-vac and leaving it in there running for 2-3 hours... it pulls air through the phone and gets in deep. My HTC HD2 survived drops in the toilet and bathtub, and an Infuse in the pool this way. I know though; klutz I am.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
Interesting approach, but I like the idea behind it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] capite:
Interesting but how could you possibly cram a Note into a shop-vac hose?

But if it could be done -- since shop-vacs can suck up liquid, how about jamming the phone in the shop-vac hose, then dunking the hose in a bucket of rubbing alcohol? Maybe that would replace all the water with alcohol, then let the alcohol evaporate?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
I pictured using a small tupperwear (plastic) container where you cut a circular hole for the hose in one side and a couple small slits on the other side (not to big to preserve pressure). I built something similar to prove you can almost instantly chill a room temp beer within seconds with the assistance of a air duster held upside down.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] capite:
Nice -- I will use this next time my Note takes a toilet dive.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
like this

Now use this with alcohol or use source of mild heat (sun or place on warm CRT monitor) and it could prove to be rather effective.

But this is alot to go through for something that is so easily opened up. Swap it for a device that is difficult to open, such as one made with triagle or other odd tamper resistant bit and you will have a good use.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
1- JRO03C is GSM

2- This will overwrite existing ramdisk/kernel, so while it may be possible to use this with a custom rom, you won't be gaining anything, but might loose something. This is intended for stock roms.

3- Invalidated by first Q&A; toro doesn't have an officially released factory image yet.

4- The first one should be the ability to remount /system RW through adb, using 'adb remount'.
