Okay. My bad. Now, since i can't get into recovery or download-mode... am i stuck with a brick or is there any ways i can get my stock rom back on the phone? Odin doesn't sen the phone, but windows "reacts" to me connecting it... (i get the little usb deviced plugged in sound)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 1weener:
Hold the power button and the volume down (I think. You might we ant to check some forums) and try to get into download mode. You can use Odin from there.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nlz242:
Volume Down + Power + Home.

But yeah, that doesn't work. I have no screen and no leds. If i hold the power button long enough, i can hear window's USB Device disconnected sound, but thats pretty much it...

Oh well, i guess i'll have to find someone around here that does JTAG repairs.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Danny 0311:
Try a "JIG". That should get you into download mode. They're sold on Ebay & Amazon, for about $5.00.:p
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 1weener:
Sounds like what I did to my S3 a while back. Task had come out with an update to his S2 and S3 ROM on the same day and I was subscribed to both forums... needless to say, the S2 ROM bricked my S3. A jig did nothing. It was just like yours; the computer made noise when plugged in but no nothing from the phone. I found a guy on Ebay that did JTAG repairs for about $25. Had my phone back as good as new within a week!

Good luck with it!

cm 10.1.2 stable had issues with apps using front facing camera (cerberus caused system crash and reboots) and issues with certain games like subway surfers, were they fixed in the latest nightlies?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 1weener:
The latest nightlies have been great. Make a nandroid backup and flash away. You'll know in 5 minutes and can easily revert to your backup if you find something you don't like. :good:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sajoeee:
You hard bricked you're device. Because you flashed a bootloader not meant for you're device. A JIG won't work. You need to buy a new phone or go to, www.mobiletechvideos.com and buy there JTAG brick repair. I hard bricked from flashing a T-Mobile bootloader. And they fixed it for 50$! It will take a week. And it will be fixed. But you will have no root. (; so root and start flashing again. (;
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tasteslikechicken:
You sure? I'm pretty sure download mode is part of PBL or SBL1, not the boot loaders that can be modified(SBL2, SBL3, ABOOT). Also, I'm pretty sure he only flashed his modem, not his BL.

so what is this about: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/46842/

now I know how to flash nearly everything from CWM, but i thought flashing a rom which just did merged the new baseband for my device would flash the baseband too. isn't it?

thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tasteslikechicken:
No, CM just added an assert that the device must have one of the latest two boot loaders.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hormosapiens:
oh ok. you are talking bout bootloader, and I am talking about modem/baseband. I got it. for now i am satying with same bootloader and DLK3 Modem for att.

thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] zmore:
Thanks for the flashable zip, Jiangyi, as I really didn't want to have to resort to flashing all of Touchwhiz w/ ODIN again just for the bootloader bits. So I just flashed your I747UCDMG2 bootloader zip, along with the (1-month-old) modem that "goes with it" (from the modem thread), and all's well on the 8/4 nightly. Haven't noticed much of a difference yet, if any. Too bad the proprietary bits don't have changelogs.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] iCyanideS3:
Hey, I have a question, when you flashed all these files did you do it consecutively for example: Bootloader file, modem, than nightly, or bootloader, reboot, modem, reboot, than finally the nightly. Thanks for your time!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] zmore:
As long as you're on a post 8/2 nightly which allows the new bootloader version, the order doesn't matter. I happened to already be on 8/4, so I just queued the bootloader and modem and flashed both at the same time (a TWRP feature), cleared caches, and rebooted.

BTW, in the last couple hours, I have noticed one positive change with the new DMG2 modem (as others have also sortof commented about in the modem thread), which is that in places where I used to barely get 1 bar of 4G and my signal would fluctuate all over the spectrum (G, E, 3G, H, H+, 4G), my phone now idles on H much more and quickly ramps up to H+ as soon as data is being used. Not sure how this'll affect battery usage.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] iCyanideS3:
Hmm, I'm on a different ROM. I'm running Dandroid 3.8.1 which has the baseband UCLG1 .I use TWRP too. I was just wondering if I should flash the bootloader first and than modem than reboot, or if I should flash everything at once?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] zmore:
Wrong thread then. I see you just hit your 10th post, which means you can now post in dev forums, so, try not to clutter 'em up with offtopic stuff (which I'm now compounding by replying publicly). You should've found another thread or PM'd.

Have all 4.3 updates been merged into CM at this point? It's so confusing to know when it's done or not...Are they going to change the thread title to 10.2?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gcamp0730:
Just FYI, this package includes the DMG2 modem as well. No separate flash required.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] fastest963:
It doesn't matter the order of modem and bootloader and technically not the nightly either. Just do all 3 of them (including nightly) before restarting. Also afaik the bootloader isn't required to match the modem so you don't have to update that.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] skim7x:
Umm yeah, I was going to say... I only flashed the firmware package and my modem was automatically updated to DMG2, so nobody needs to flash that modem on top of this firmware... Just:

1) Boot into recovery

2) Flash firmware zip

3a) Either flash nightly in recovery OR

3b) Boot device and update to newest nightly via built-in CM-Updater (I just did this option and worked perfectly)

You'll be able to flash any nightly 8/03/13 and newer, and you'll have the new modem installed.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 2new2care:
I only seem to be getting 2 bars max no matter where I am under 4G with the new modem. Anyone else?

Does anyone else have problems with their phone not locking after a while? It works fine when I start the phone up but then after about 1 day on the battery the phone stops locking...hitting the menu key and hitting "Lock homescreen" does nothing...

Very strange and it's happened to me on 2 nightlies now.

EDIT: It seems to be app related...I just closed all open apps and the lockscreen is working again...ugh
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hormosapiens:
just updated bootloader and modem on nightly 8/5 and now if i go in settings/about phone/status, under mobile network type HSDPA:8

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
I believe you simply lock the grid so you can't move the apps around when you do that, not turn off your phone...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] marinierb:
Did you set your preferred network mode?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sugarkryptonite:
Gotcha...thanks.

Still an app stopping my phone from locking, though...boo!

EDIT: Actually it's not an app...I think it might be a bug? If I close all apps, lock screen works, if I close one by one trying to find the culprit, it doesn't work until I close the last app...very strange :(
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] blasterrr:
Yes, this has happened to me several times as well.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
What are you doing exactly?

Do you use a pattern lockscreen, pin, password or not secure lockscreen?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] adammur:
So from what I've read, me being on Rogers with a 747m, I have to wait for the updated Rogers bootloader before I can upgrade to the latest nightly?

My phone randomly stopped sending/receiving texts. I was on 8/4 nightly and I just updated to 8/6 and still can't get texts. I tried texting my phone and it wouldn't send. It does say sent but no one gets my messages and vice versa.

Is this just a network issue? I can go online and everything internet related is working fine
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nlz242:
I am the guy that hardbricked his i747m.

If you got any of the bootloader that is in the assert list, you are fine.

I was running I747MVLDLK4 and everything was OK.

But i messed up and installed "I747UCDMG2", this one is for the i747 (NOT M) and thats what bricked it (all my fault, 100%)

If you need it, you can get the bootloader here : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=41503727&postcount=13716

Just put your phone into download mode, launch odin, connect the phone, click PDA and select the file and flash.

BE SURE TO GET THE GOOD FILE THO! :)

Also... if i can take a minute of your time (or anyone with an i747m)...

I have found a procedure to unbrick my phone without external programming (jtag) which involves flashing the bootloader, modem, etc to an Sdcard. It looks promising, however, i need a working copy of the the first 128mb of the memory (it contains the bootloader). It's not hard to do but requires a working rooted i747m, which i dont have access to.

If anyone with one would be kind enough to run "dd" on their device (using busybox for exemple) and share that file with me, i could probably revive my phone!

All i need is the output file from this (modify the path of the output file (OF=) to something valid):

busybox dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/debrick.img bs=1M count=128

By stop locking you mean stop going into standby and turning the screen off without you touching it, or you mean when you press the power button it does nothing?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ganjah:
The number codes won't work on CM, only stock afaik. I have tried them at various points as well. What I do to change preferred network type is the following, but it only works until you reboot or cycle airplane mode.

Goto Settings-->More-->Mobile networks-->Network operators

Let the phone search for network operators for awhile. The time it takes is completely variable - sometimes it's 45s, sometimes 8+ minutes (makes no sense - how would I automate this upon boot with a script?). Doing anything with your phone while it searches will interrupt the process, causing you to have to re-search.

Once the phone finds the list of all netops, choose the top listing for your carrier. Your selection will cause the phone to register to that network, then CM will back out to the Mobile networks menu by itself once registered.

From here, choose Network mode, then pick your preferred one, and you're done.

As I mentioned before, these settings will persist until you reboot or cycle airplane mode. I have to redo this process (to force the phone to never use LTE) every time I perform one of those two actions, and it's one of the only remaining gripes with CM that I have.

Best of luck!

I had an issue similar to this a while ago. My screen would turn off but it wouldn't lock. I found out it was because of a tasker profile I used that woke up/unlocked my phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] imfletcher32:
I've had this occasionally after new builds, too. Go to:

Phone > *#*#4636#*#* > Phone info > SMSC > Refresh

You should see a number populate the field. Then hit Home to exit. Always has cured the issue for me.

On a related note, I've also had a few builds where I could not receive calls (straight to VM) until I made an outgoing call first. Almost a habit to check both things after a flash now.

Hey, this is interesting. This is my s2 on recent nightly. Screen off, but yeah, that says four days, cell and Wi-Fi on the entire time, three market apps updated and a few Rom update notices. 70 percent battery remaining. I do have an extended battery on it. In theory, I could leave it for six to seven more days and have battery left.

If I could get 24 hours on my s3 with usage, I'd be happy. Just wanted to leave something non relevant and annoying here. Apologies.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] abbz123:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] czechpunk:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pmgnet:
Hey, no conspiracy theories, please! I couldn't believe it myself, but yeah it's a phone that was sitting idle for this long. In fact when I hit the power button, I thought it was certainly out of battery and was going to be dead, as is normal. I've been fighting battery issues since captivate, stock, and cm7+... I've never had a screenshot like this, and am probably just as dubious/angry as many others here when they see out of whack screenshots like this posted by others with crazy claims about how they used some kernel to get it. I was happy to get to post one of my own screens for once. :)

Using my actual phone, I can't even leave location access on now (for the last year) without Google Services having its way with my battery. In fact, I bet if my post history is avail on xda, my complaining is too frequent. Much griping about this type of stuff.

Anyway, I thought it was cool, and showed what might be possible with idle phones and current battery tech. Please take it for what it was worth, which is not much to nothing.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
The battery jumps back to the top without charging. So either you swapped the battery, or it's a battery glitch. Either way, it's like comparing oranges and apples.

I wish you hadn't posted this! :) Flashoholic here, and I've already been on this and back. I was on a couple of builds on dirty flash, and started getting random reboots, so went back to nightlies.

I've been having issues with my phone rebooting randomly for about the past weeks worth of nightlies. I've wiped data, cache, and dalvik cache.

My d2att is just a test phone, so I have no problems running it without any of my personal stuff on it. Even without any 3rd party apps installed (and no account info loaded), it still reboots randomly.

Not sure if this has anything to do with it, but it's unlocked so I have a Tmobile SIM in it (and getting LTE here in Chicago).

Anyone else getting random reboots with the latest nightlies?

No reboots here!..
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] naddie:
I don't see any complaints either in ROM Manager's comments. I'll flash back to stock and see if it happens there as well. If so, sounds like a hardware issue. May need to invoke the insurance. :(
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 1weener:
My phone hasn't had a random reboot in months. Are you using a different kernel? I use BMS or Lean, both give unreal performance and the best battery life that I've ever seen. Try one of those. If you are running one of these, then try upping your voltage on the lowest few freqs.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sugarkryptonite:
Just to clarify: is there ANYONE out there like me who has problems with their lock screen not showing up? It works on and off but after a while of having the phone on it stops locking the phone at all.

Closing recent apps sometimes makes the lock screen come back and work briefly...
