[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] WTFever2012:
My S3 has started a strange charging problem and I hope someone here can help. My S3 has been charging fine and showing the LED, but since I plugged the phone into my laptop USB, now the phone stops charging if the screen is on. It doesn't matter if it is connected to a wall outlet or USB.....turn on the screen and the LED goes out and the unit stops charging. Under "Battery" options in settings it shows as connected and charging, but it isn't actually charging any. Use the power button to turn off the screen and the LED lights back up and the unit starts charging for real. I've turned off the LED(unchecked it) then turned it back on....no difference. Rebooted etc.....nada.

Phone is bone stock AT&T and I'm new to Android. Hoping it is a simple setting that somehow got changed.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] peanut1596:
Led is supposed to turn off when charging and screen is on.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] WTFever2012:
You misunderstood part of the post. Not only does the LED turn off, it stops charging with the screen on. Under Battery options it "says" the battery IS charging, but it really isn't. Battery level continues to drop. Turn off the screen and it starts actually charging again.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] peanut1596:
Well it may be because you are using more power than its putting into the phone. Or it may just be defective. Have you tried another Rom yet?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] bobapunk:
Are you using the USB cable that came with your S3? Is your laptop plugged in our running on battery when this happens? I also believe that you might be using more amps to run the screen and Wi-Fi and whatever else is running on the phone than the USB can output. What generation USB port is in your laptop?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] ayeitschris:
If there is a thunderbolt on the battery icon, then that means it's charging. When you turn on the LED option when charging, it only turns red when the screen is off, and turns green when it's full.

Heylo,

Curious if anyone has a power / notification bar that has dB rating for signal strength? I'm looking to find a good bar that has most everything in a nice readable format instead of graphs...Personally would love to see the signal strength and battery in numerical values.

Just testing the water. =-)

Yes it's possible. You would need either a rooted phone or a custom recovery. The easiest way (I can think of) is with a Metamorph file whick you would have to find / create that had the desired images.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cossie1600:
I can't believe no one is bringing this up. When I decided to drink the kool-aid and updated my phone to ICS, I noticed a huge drop in my speedtest result. In 4G, I used to get speed 2-4x faster than 3G. Ever since I upgraded to ICS, my 4G speed is unstable and it is now speedtesting at less than my 3G speed. Does anyone know what is going on? I have tried 4 different ICS rom and modem, they all do the same thing. I am currently on the official sprint patch, same exact problem again. When I flash back to Gingerbread, my speed skyrockets back up to where it should be. Anyone know what is going on? I can't believe no one is bringing this up.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Tails4u2nv:
Same problem here, I don't get it. Is everyone else not having the problem or just cool with it?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] beserker15:
The OP meant to say our Epic 4G Touch, and he is correct. It varies by region and it doesn't seem to affect everyone, but for those who are affected, the difference is noticeable (in my case, about 8-10mbs on gb versus 2-3mbs on ics). Course, this issue has existed since the first ICS roms were leaked as well as all of the AOSP based ics roms. Based on previous threads, there are people getting 8-10mbs on ICS roms so I'm pretty sure it isn't affecting everyone...just some.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] evilsock:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cossie1600:
It is the Sprint Epic 4G touch Galaxy whatever crap name they give it. Anyway it is definitely related to ICS because I flashed multiptimes back to Gingerbread and I was getting speeds that were 8x faster. Now i am stuck at like 1200kbps at best with ICS. I would have stayed on Gingerbread if I can get the tether to work. My rooted EL29 cant seem to bypass the Sprint block anymore.

Knoxville TN here as well. Near the Halls Crossroads area if you know where that's at. No 4G and 3G sucks so bad I have to use a corporate PRL and Roam Control to have data in half the places I go.

I would try flashing different modems I'm on Fd19 which works well for me ff18 is really bad for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Raistlin1:
My speed tests have been strange on FF18, they start off slow and then they get up to 9mbps shortly after it starts. Back on EL29 Blazer 4.1 I would get very sporadic and uneven wimax speeds, but they sometimes went up to 15mbps. When I blazer I did try several modems (including FF18) and I did not notice much of a difference. I am in NYC and in NJ.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cob11341:
Mine actually went up, I never had this speed before 0.o
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bjonesy77:
I posted about this yesterday.

With FF18 I get .5mbps down and 1.5mbps up on 4g which is slower than 3g. In the exact same location I flashed el29 and got 12+mbps down and 2+up.

I then flashed the EL29 modem and used ff18 but still received very slow 4g speeds. I have to assume that this is a kernal issue, not the modem. I've tried updating PRL and profile, even putting different PRL's on (sprint corporate 11119) and had no increase in speeds.

Either way, forget ICS. Its great but its not worth the crappy data speeds so I'm back to EL29.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Why don't you go to aokp/cm9
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bjonesy77:
because its exactly the same.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
Modems have different effects for everyone. Hundreds of users had tested FF18 prior to the OTA, plenty of talk happened before the OTA.

Flash a different modem if your performance is that bad see if it clears up for you. I get great 4G speeds. Only a couple of modems were troublesome for me and it was usually GPS not network speeds though had a couple that 3G was screwed on.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
This thread is ridiculous, my speeds are the same on ics. The variations in speed are due to crappy sprint (and clear) service not android version.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bjonesy77:
You're ridiculous, not the thread. Did you even read it?

Sitting at my desk with a VERY solid 4g connection, if I install FF18, I get ~.5mbps down and 1.5mbps up

Flash a stock EL29 I get 12+mbps down and 2+mbps up.

Explain how that is crappy service?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Really didn't know touchwiz is the same as cm9/aokp. Smartass.

I've gotten faster speeds on cm9 than ics touchwiz that's why I suggested it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
Flash the EL29 modem back and see if your phone, area likes it.

I get between 8 and 15 Mbps and ALWAYS get 1.4 Mbps Up. I currently run the FF18 modem and I have had the same experience on most of the modems. Like your current experience upload seems to not get much of a wrench thrown in it.

How lucky for you. Where I am, 3G can be compared to dial-up. Point is, just because you found something that works for you does not mean it is the best solution (or even a solution at all) for somebody else. And you simply look ignorant when you continue to push it.

I used the ODIN One-click to install FI02, and pinch to zoom does not work in any stock app that I've tried. That includes the stock browser and Google Maps. Browser I don't care so much about, but Maps is a problem. I have a feeling it may be fallout from the Apple case. Pinch to zoom works fine in Chrome and other apps that support it, so it seems that Google apps are the ones that lack it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
It's fi03 and make sure you have version 2 garwin added after his first initial upload. He took the broken one down already.. I had the first one and my pinch to zoom was gone but it's working fine now that I installed the newer OC he posted.

I was having slow 4G running FI03 roms. And I didn't know why. Until I realized I was flashing a different AGAT kernel. And today they released the FI03 kernel and speeds skyrocketed. So maybe the fix was baked in with the FI03 kernel?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] juggalo1300:
I flashed the f103 rom with out kernel and my speeds went back to normal. Flashed the kernel and same results.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shahran:
So FI03 has fixed the 4G, but I am just wondering Jelly Bean and CM10 roms would also be fixed?

I have read all the posts but I am not sure if I understand if flashing the "[UNOFFICIAL] AOKP JB Build 1" or CM10 would also be a fix for the 4G?

Also, some have said that the kernel was the fix for them, others have said that it is only the ROM that fixed the issue. It would be nice if it was the kernel then we could flash any ICS rom and then the kernel for fix, but I am guessing its really the ROM?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] javan966:
Was in IRC when he was testing a couple of builds with the fix but they wouldn't boot I believe he what's the problem why the phone won't boot and if he fix the it CM9 it should be fix in CM10 and all other AOSP ROM because everyone is using sbrissen kernel to build AOSP rom right now.

I lurk in IRC a lot lol!!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
It's the kernel that brings the 4g fix not the rom. After I installed the recovery garwynn said to flash on his thread for his rooted stock fi03 to get cwm my speeds crapped out again. Once I restored the kernel all was well again. Just my two cents..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cashrevert:
what about CM10? :p
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shahran:
So I have been reading that the kernel in FI03 fixes the 4G issue. If we flash CM10, can we just flash the stock FI03 Kernel after?

EDIT: I think I already knew this, but you can't flash ICS kernel on the JB rom, correct? Meaning what I said above doesn't work. Starting to forget things haven't been keeping up as much....

It's kernel related and won't be fixed until source is released.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mikelav456:
I understand it is kernel related, but don't we already have source? In fact, isn't that part of the reason 4g dies on CM?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] revamper:
Samsung only puts out the source for the latest OTA, which was FH13. FI03/FI25 contain some sort of 4G threshold fix but are leaks, hence we have no source for those kernels.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mikelav456:
So if I go back to anything based on FH13 that should fix my problems?

Anyone remember the last CM9 build based on FH13 kernel (or the last CM9 build with working 4g)?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] revamper:
Flash FI25 if you want fast 4g.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AdhvanIt:
Just a FYI. This is NOT a kernel issue.

It's not. I promise. The kernel actually has absolutely nothing to do with network speeds. They cannot be increased or decreased on our end. Its network congestion and tower issues relating to the LTE upgrade.

I've done tests on GB, ICS, CM9, MIUIv4 and CM10 running each test at specific times on specific days and locations. There is absolutely no correlation between the kernel/ROM and data speeds.

If you'd like to run the same tests yourself, I can walk you through my process.

Sent from another Galaxy [S2]
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shahran:
I am going to say what you are saying is partially not true - specifically that it is not the ROM. Any ICS rom beofre FI03 that I tried would cap my speeds so I went back to GB and 4G has been fine ever since. I had two Epic 4gs next to each other, and I tested mine that I put GB back on and my brother that got the OTA ICS and his was capped just like I was when I put on different ICS roms. I haven't tried any other roms since FH13 because GB is fine for now, waiting patiently for the fix in FI03 and FI25 to be buit into CM and other JB roms.

So I am still not sure if it is the kernel issue since I haven't tried any new roms, but most other have said that the kernel has been the fix for them.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
Hey hey hey Buddy! Did you know that cm10 is built off of ff18's kernel? 4G will continue to be crap unless JB roms get updated with the FI03 or FI25 kernel. Just thought you should know..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mikelav456:
I'm not trying to bad-mouth anyone, just letting everyone know what my experience has been.

Are the latest builds of CM9 then built off FI03 or FI25? If so, are you saying that if I go back to those newer CM9 builds, my 4g problems should go away???
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
I know your not bad mouthing anyone just pointing that out. A lot of ppl are under the impression that this has not been fixed when in reality Samsung has. But until devs somehow update their roms with either FI03 or FI25 there's nothing that can be done.

As for your question that's something you'll need to ask another person who's more experienced with CM9 or 10. I only deal with complete stock rooted. The one time I looked at a JB rom I saw it was based off of FF18 and I told myself I'll pass. I rely heavily on 4g so it's a no go. Only way I got FF18 anything to perform normal on 4g was by flashing FI03's kernel. Once I did that my stock FF18 skyrocketed back to normal.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esk1L:
Kernel FI03 has the fix

I really am surprised that this is still a discussion.. It has been said since FI03 was released the fixes for speed are changes throughout the build, any one part alone , i.e. kernel, modem.. is not the answer.
