[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forsakened:
Hey all,

I've tried my best not to be a noob and did a search of the i9300 sub-forums before posting this and also a search of the WanamLite thread.

I saw a few people have FC problems and others with "ghost" notifications. But my problem is a bit different.

I have a i9300 running WanamLite 2.0 ROM with stock kernel. I have about 9,500 texts (SMSes).

I backed up and restored them using "SMS Backup & Restore" from the play store.

The problem is this:

I get a notification that I've gotten a text, I open the messaging app and the relevant thread is not updated. When I open the thread, its fine I see the new sms and THEN the thread gets updated when I go one level back.

Its not as big of a issue when its a single sms or multiple smses from a single sender, but with multiple senders all I see in notification is that I have "X" amount of texts. I do not know who the sender is until I open the threads one by one and see which has a new text in it. =/

I really hope that I've been able to explain the issue properly. I wonder if i'm the only one facing this bug =/

Regards,

Forsakened.

Is ICS update started by LG Update tool?
[LG Nitro HD] Deleted member 3821646:
Yes. I did it last night and it works great.
[LG Nitro HD] avee02000:
Thanks for reply, i will update it now.
[LG Nitro HD] esqwav:
Will the update through the lg mobile tool wipe everything ( apps etc ) ? Is it recommended to do a factory reset after the upgrade?

Thanks.
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
Yes, it will erase everything. I'm guessing a factory reset wouldn't be necessary since I think it starts you with a clean slate to begin with after installing it, but if you prefer to do it, it wouldn't hurt I suppose.
[LG Nitro HD] eshka:
LG Update tool

LG Update Tool or whatever you call it. I used it yesterday for update from official first update (vj10?) to official ICS. It leaved all contacts, messages and WiFi access codes intact.

Everything as it is described on LG page (remove spaces, add www in front)

lg . com/us/ NitroHD-Upgrade

1. Install driver

2. reboot

3. install Tool

4-and-5. connect phone and run tool

In ~25 minutes I've got ICS installed.

The only issue I have is the battery life. My usage mode is "Mostly idle" and battery lasts 1 day +. Now it is running out 10% per hour. Not sure what is the problem.
[LG Nitro HD] blaineball:
There is my issue, I cannot get the tool to see my phone is connected? Where in CM9 do I activate the "PC Software" mode or have the USB connection menu come up?
[LG Nitro HD] eshka:
In my case (Stock ROM) that was in phone's Settings -> Connectivity -> USB settings then it was a menu { Mass Storage, Charge only, PC Software, MTP something } and "Always Ask" (I'm Paranoid :) ). I'm not familiar with CM, so check other threads. May be it's easier to get stock ROM first.
[LG Nitro HD] avee02000:
No, it won't erase everything. just start LG Update tool & connect your phone and start updating. after everything is done you will see your installed apps are still there even call log sms everything remains there.

[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
Fail on LG's part. In that case, I'd suggest that everyone who installs this ROM perform a factory reset after installing it.
[LG Nitro HD] mattman86:
Not a fail at all... It backs up your info before doing the update.

Personally, I find this to be a huge win. I find it very cumbersome and annoying to have to go through and download my apps and customize the settings.

Way to go LG!
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
No, it doesn't back anything up. It's just means it's not clearing your data partition at all during the update. It's the same as not doing "facory reset/wipe data" from CWM before installing a ROM.

The problem is that can lead to all kinds of weird problems once you're in the new ROM. It's probably why some people report bad battery life and others don't, etc.
[LG Nitro HD] avee02000:
I have upgraded and my data & apps and everythings are as it is. should i factory reset/wipe data now? or should i re updrade? my battery back up is worst at present, 10 hours light use only.
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
I would suggest that you do a factory reset and see if the battery life improves after doing that. You'll have to set up the phone again though. Make sure your contacts are either stored to SIM or Google so that you don't lose them, etc.

If you don't know, you need to turn the phone completely off, then hold down volume down and power button at the same time -- keep holding until the text appears that asks if you want to factory reset. Then let go and follow the instructions.

There shouldn't be any reason to install the update a second time.
[LG Nitro HD] avee02000:
Thanks for your useful point about factory reset. i did factory reset and downloaded about 30 apps which i installed earlier. now i will notice battery life. i will confirm it after using a day.

Anyone else have any issues with the charging port? I'm the idiot that deals with customers doing gymnastics with their phone on the charger that mess up the port and now mine won't read some chargers...such as my moms Razr Maxx or girlfriends HTC one x charger....i tried a new charger fresh from packaging at my store and its kinda working....

Just wanted to see if anyone had any other issues

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] cjsspape:
Haha thats never good! Im having a strange issue with my charger/port. It started a few weeks ago with my car charger. It would start charging then stop. If I rebooted then it would charge. For a while it was limited to my car charger (OEM samsung btw) but as of last few days it started doing it with my wall charger (OEM charger with aftermarket cable.) Fast forward to today. It will not charge with the device on at all. Turn it off and plug it in and it intermittently charges very slowly. I dont think its a software issue or a charger issue because the charger works for other devices. Its either the Battery or the charging port itself. Either way fairly easy fix but a major nuisance when I use my phone for most everything these days haha. Good luck finding your answer!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
Boys, that usb port is like a belly button. And you have to dig out the lint ocassionaly. Use a non metal item, like a tooth pick to get all up in there. A little compressed air too.

For my warranty I went through att device support center n got a new phone the same day
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] cjsspape:
Update: I got my flex cable yesterday from eBay. 12.99 free shipping. Took forever to get here but packaged very well in a hard plastic box. By looks its the same as OEM in every way to include the i717 markings. Opening up the note was very easy, just use a small jewlers screwdriver set. I have an iPhone toolkit with picks and suction cup so that helped. Biggest thing to remember is BE GENTLE! parts are very well put together so very easy to break if forced apart. Then a few screws later the speaker port and main board were off. Pay special attention to the charge port flex ribbon as its fairly well glued to it with super sticky tape. I used the guitar pick and seperated it with great success. Reassemby was just as easy and I am now happy to say my charging port WAS the problem and my note is 100% operational and unlike some phones once you take them apart they never look the same. Not the case for the note. It looks flawless again. Also a lil bonus by cleaning the dirt out of my antennae connectors my networks are a lot faster so take the extra time to tidy up while your in there!

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] betoishly:
If you select wipe data/factory reset...you will lose everything that isn't saved to your USB storage. You should be fine with just flashing the ROM without the data/factory wipe. Just make sure to wipe your cache and Dalvik! :p
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwibis:
What betoishly says. Wiping cache and dalvik cache does not affect your apps/data. Only if you do factory reset you wipe everything.

For the record, this solution did not work. Any other suggestions?

After wiping the cache partition and Dalvek cache, the phone continued to boot with a black screen. It then went to an "Android is upgrading..." screen and Optimize every single one of my apps (128). Nothing was messed up.

Root again (worked)

tried to install this ROM

(full wipe, installed zip, full wipe, installed gapps, full wipe)

and now I'm stuck in the CM boot animation :(

Any suggestions?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Nicoleef:
Try with full wipe, install zip, gapps and reboot, also it takes some time to the phone to start.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] raiderfox:
Ok, now I've tried full wipe, install zip, install gapps, reboot.

I'm in bootloop again (for 15 minutes now).

EDIT: Now it's 30 minutes :/
[Motorola Droid RAZR] base_band5:
If you have BootMenu Manager installed, why not have your phone dual boot. On he Primary Partition stick with stock ICS, then on the second stick a CFW - I'm using Epsilon v4 also I tried Artic. But obviously you'll have to get your primary partition up and running first. Guess the easiest option is to go back to stock. With this method your 2nd partition is your play area of different roms, and you should always have a working phone. Just search for the dual boot link in XDA if you wanna go for this method.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] raiderfox:
:cowboy:

Now it worked. It was my fault, I forgot to convert the ROM.

Anyway, thanks for your help :good:

I recently bought a Samsung infuse 4g from a lady at work.. she got the phone from At&t and I am on T-Mobile so I bought an unlocking code today. I was so excited that I could finally use my new phone.. when I went to make a call I heard nothing while dialing out and when my husband answered he couldn't hear me talk to him

Almost every time I try to call out the phone will freeze and there is no sound so I did a factory reset and still nothing so i went to Samsung.com the tech support lady had me plug in and unplug headphones then blow air into the hole. This did not work so we did a soft reset (taking out the battery for 30 seconds) and still no sound at all no music no alarm no phone calls. I am so upset that I have payed 150$ for the phone and 30$ for the unlock code... I know the phone worked when my friend was using it a few days ago but I am not 100% if the sound worked when she gave it to me BC she had got the skyrocket and using that.. I saw the phone turn on and receive text messages never would have thought to check and see if the sound worked..am I totally up a creek with no paddle ?. I am confident that the phone still has a warranty but it would not be in my name and I am not sure if it would be voided by unlocking it.... please help me !!!!!!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Clark Joseph Kent:
ok since you unlock it has to be rooted. so that would void your warranty, but it can be put back to stock if you must replace it, with that have you tried to one click or odin back to stock, that may fix and at the same time get it ready for return if needed. Question are you on stock or custom ROM? BTW way to check i warranty is good, reg it via samsung website it will tell you there, I reg all my sammy products for that reason.
