[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wasya152:
could someone post the link to where i can download the actual file. i did a manual update from ics to jb through the toolkit, but something got messed up. my phone has not been working properly. i was just going to flash the entire clean JB rom again, but i'm a complete noob and can't find it. i've searched the forum, but i get super confused with the multiple rom/files threads.

can i just downloand the factory image of the jb 4.1.1, boot into cwm and just flash that file. I believe it will wipe everything and lock my bootloader again. i've been trying to sort things out, but it's driving me crazy, especially my contact search. normally, the people you call most frequently show up right away as you type or two letters of the name and at the top of the search. for me, it's always at the bottom of the list. it's super annoying. i have to scroll all the way down to select them. also, the pics that i take with my camera only appear as files on my comp. there's no preview of the actual pictures. for work, i always need to select/pick out a couple, but now without seeing the image, i have to manually click through each picture, open each one until i find the one i need.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wasya152:
i used the nexus toolkit to flash the google factory image. is that the same thing as flashing the stock rom?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
You know adb and fastboot controls? If so, you can easily reflash... assuming that you got stock recovery, do fastboot boot cwm.img (you need to download clockwork recovery and put it into the fastboot directory)

Then just flash the zip file of stock Jelly Bean.

You can find stock ROM in Google developer site I believe.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wasya152:
well, i now believe my issue was not a update problem, but instead a jb issue. i got a new galaxy nexus for my wife last week and when it came in i set it up for me first. tried using it and same issues as i'm having. i guesss it's a coding issue, than an update. the phone has same issue with contacts. when you use search bar to look for contacts, the most frequent ones come up all the way at the bottom of list, instead of up top. it's like it's reversed for some reason. also, when i took a picture with the phone, i could not see a preview on the computer either. tried same thing on my nexus 7. i really hope google fixes this, it's really annoying.

Hey gang.

Does everyone's s3 get hot when playing games?

Just trying to figure out if it's normal. It feels hotter than other phones I've owned. And want to know if this is common or if I should return my S3

It's really warm when using data (browsing, YouTube etc.) around 95-105°

But gets hot when playing games. Around 120 -125°

Chime in. Would love some feedback on everyone's S3.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] horr1blek1tten:
Yes mine does it especially when playing dead Trigger it gets nice and warm near the bottom of the phone.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Charlie Brown:
Yeah exactly. At the bottom of the phone.

I appreciate fellow S3 owners posting here. Just to put my and everyone else's mind at ease.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] elracing21:
Every smartphone I have had gets warm when playing games for over 30min.

I believe this is normal as long as you monitor and don't over clock a lot. Eventually that can kill your hardware.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Crisisx1:
Yea mine gets hot even if I am just browsing and texting and watching videos .. I guess its normal but its annoying because then my hands get all sweaty .. lol ... but I think the maximum the temp can go to is 60 c which is above 125 f so ur ok
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kulzboy:
Not only the s3 my iPhone gets hot when playing dead space or surf while charging too
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mrmako777:
today for me was the hottest my phone has ever gotten - 105F. it was 95F outside and i had to turn my screen brightness up so i could see, on top of surfing the web and chatting on the phone. someone commented in another thread that our phone can go up to 140F without issue. i dont know if thats true, but there ya have it...oh, i havent played any games yet
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Charlie Brown:
Been monitoring temps with system tuner under different stress levels. Playing gta3 I pushed temps to 52°C.

Internet browsing has me around the low 40s. At idle the temp is around 32-35C

My ambient temp in my home is about 73-74 F.

None the less this phone is one hot tamale! Lol
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jrwingate6:
I've only played one game for any extended period of time so far which is Home Run Battle 2 and my GS3 doesn't get hot at all. It runs just slightly warmer than it usually does but it's by far the coolest phone I've eve had.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] durvall:
Get really hot when browsing too long 30 min +
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] chrisram88:
My phone gets warm as well. The temp is about average just like the rest of you guys so I wouldn't worry. Having a very thin back cover doesn't help either.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] benefit14snake:
Under voting helps with this a TON. I took my voltage for 1.5ghz from 1150mv down to 1025mv and it stays much much cooler under full load. Oh and temps won't break your cpu, too much nanny software on this chip. Even over clocked. Over voltage may though =)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Koye:
not really
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Lighthalzen:
So far I tried playing Final Fantasy 3 on it, definitely very warm, but not hot to touch. Others include Youtube and prolong Web Browsing. Music is fine however. :victory:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] MRCANNADY:
hey, how's it going man... has this phone replaced your Asus Transformer Prime? I haven't touched the tablet in a while since owning this phone :)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] benefit14snake:
Hey dude!

Yup this phone rocks so hard! Yeah I sold the tablet... Still gotta get rid of the dock will probably list it soon.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] etherealglimpse:
The phone gets really warm on stock. The cpu has a temp control feature that if it gets too hot it will slow down. The cpu is made to work up to really high temperatures so I wouldn't worry too much about it.

If you flash to a custom kernel, they are lowering voltages on some of the frequencies and I am noticing an incredible loss of heat. My phone does not get warm anymore, at least no where near stock.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] benefit14snake:
This. Like faux said some of the chips run the same voltage across many frequencies (in my case 1150mv) I was able to lower them into the 850-1050s which is crazy low. Remember power draw goes up exponentially with voltage change.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] clouds5:
Is it possible that the American version (dualcore 2gb ram) doesnt get as hot as the international one (quadcore exynos 1gb ram)?

Mine gets pretty hot as well when i play for long times, i guess the main reason why many people are talking about this is that the Chipsets are located directly at the bottom where you would hold your phone while gaming in portrait mode for example. So you can directly feel it and the heat of your hand further warms the phone :) My Tegra3 tablet gets pretty hot as well in one spot - where the cpu is, but its not a place you normally place your hands, so you wont even notice that it gets warm.

Same thing was with my previous phone the DesireHD. It never got hot on the places where i held it, so you think it wont heat up at all.

In general though: I have some experience with cpu clocking on PCs and overclocking and stuff. It depends a little on the chipset of course but in general temps like 50-70° C are no problem at all for CPUs.

Workaround on SGSIII: Enable power save mode CPU. It reduces the clock to 1ghz (at least on my rom - stock jelly bean polish release), it still runs most games and UI perfectly smooth in jelly bean but it gets considerably less hot.

The image previews in the gallery app become black and white and somewhat slanted. This has happend to me on stock and on clean Rom. I have never found a way to fix this and it happens randomly and just stays that way until I flash a new rom
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] SkookDroid:
Thats odd :confused: I never had that problem but you could try downloading a gallery app from the playstore
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] G4 Man2:

backup your SD, boot into recovery, go to mount, unmount everything then mount the SD storage and wipe via PC, reboot the phone on a clean SD and mount the Sd again, copy the files back but only the ones you need, like backups, DCIM but delete all the thumbnails, and any music/media you want to save.

Sorry but the S3 is the best phone on the market at the time, and best place to purchase is on Amazon o eBay
[General Questions and Answers] Scorpius666:
There are zillion threads like this and always everybody jump to suggest Samsung Galaxy S3.

But actually I wouldn't buy it. The battery lasts ways less than S2. The S3 screen is bigger and for some people is nice to me makes the phone bulky and heavy.

I'd get an S2. It's cheaper, the CPU is 1.2 vs 1.5 from S3, battery lasts WAY MORE even though it has less mAh!! (which is the MOST important feature of a phone) and 1 GB RAM "ought to be enough for everybody".

A powerful phone means less battery and that means more frustration in the street with a phone that ran out of charge.
[General Questions and Answers] Kou Dou:
I think you can also install Jelly Bean on S3 several months later when an official ROM is produced. But HTC One X is also a good choice.

I also would go with the SGS3. The size isn't that much different from the SGS2 and all the reviews i've read said the battery life is good.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] D Mansell:
Hi everyone, long time lurker here. I've searched a good deal for similar posts from people in my situation but have found none.

My phone got wet a month or so ago. I took it out almost immediately, took the battery out, and let it dry (had no access to rice at this time). Both the battery and the phone indicated that there was water damage. I started it back up the next day and it started up fine. I noticed that the battery died a little faster than before (I've since then purchased a new battery, but seem to have this same issue). I took it home a day or so later and put it in rice overnight, but still had the same issues (described in the following paragraphs). I did a factory reset and also got a sim card too.

I noticed that my calls and texts did not always go through. For texts, the circle symbol would show up and animate, but would eventually fail after 30 seconds or so. Additionally, when I tried to make a call and press the send button it would either 1) go to the call screen but make no ringing sound or 2) go to the call screen and ring continually (it never went through to voicemail). I can sometimes tell its doing this by how the way it is ringing- there's a slightly shorter pause between every fifth or sixth ring. I've found that my data connection typically doesn't work during these periods either.

The thing is, it doesn't always do this. Its only for certain blocks of time that it seems to go out, usually just 5 or so minutes, but sometimes longer. I do feel like its even gotten better over the past few weeks or so. During these blocks I can't send or receive calls or texts, or connect to voicemail. I've tried going in and out of airplane mode, turning data on/off, turning the phone on/off, and manually removing the battery to shut it down, but none of these techniques will consistently re-enable my calling/texting abilities.

When I do regain connectivity, for whatever reason, texts sent to me will appear, and voicemails as well, but missed calls don't show up.

Everything that I missed during the outage will appear all at once.

Any suggestions as to what this might be, or possible fixes? I'm guessing an internal component might only be working intermittently due to being exposed to the water. I'm up for an upgrade soon, so I'll be able to live with it regardless.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
1. back up all your stuff, pics and data if you haven't already

2. factory reset/data wipe/cache wipe

if that doesn't work, you may have residual moisture.

look in youtube: search infuse screen replacement for how to dissemble phone.

take it apart and dry it all out for a few days...(rice, silica, warm surface, bigjoe's sunny desert back yard)

reassemble.

gl
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Truckerglenn:
You stated that you only let it dry for one day.

You should have put it in a bag of rice as soon as possible. Whether that day, that night or the next day. Then left it in that bag for two days.

Notice two days in rice compared to one day without.

I'm planning my escape from the digital world!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] D Mansell:
Thanks for the advice everyone, I'll try the cache wipe.

Its been almost a month since it happened...do you think putting it in rice for two days could still be beneficial?

Can't hurt.

So if you dont know how to wipe in recovery

reboot device in recovery

(vol up+home+power)

you will see option to wipe cache and wipe data, perform it

then reboot system

Thats it.
