Hello.

1) I tried to upgrade my rooted SGS3 in Kies. It freezes during upgrading at 6% (more than an hour at 6%). I stopped upgrading, turned off and turned on the battery. Now I see "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again".

2) I tried flashing in ODIN. It failed, the phone freezes in Downloading mode.

3) I tried recovery in Kies. It freezes too (at 11%).

What should I do now? Guys, please help...

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaktiker:
1) Of course I extracted zip file before flashing.

2) XDA don't offer the latest version of SGS3 firmware for Russia.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Correct firmware used and instructions followed .

Then a faulty download of the firmware or a damaged phone are the only solutions left ..

I would personally try flashing CF root via Odin and wiping phone via mounts and storage format .

Only other choice is a service centre .

Hi everybody and thanks for those. who tried to help me.

I just tried to connect the cable to another usb port (not front one, but the one on the motheboard) and this helps!!!! Now I have the latest firmware, installed by Kies. So the reason was simple - the bad USB Port. :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diehard2222:
That's good to hear. Wonder if its the USB port itself or a software problem..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaktiker:
It's the usb port. I used the idea from other thread. Never use front usb port (on desktops) to upgrade the phone.

Another idea - is to change the cable
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GalaxyS3man:
Great you solved it, i learned my lesson, never use front usb ports. Would be really ***** if u bricked ur device. I would have gone nuts.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NDUTU:
It's not the front USB, It's THE CABLE,

ALWAYS and I Mean ALWAYS use the STOCK CABLE of your S3 for Updating....
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaktiker:
Cable was the same :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr.Nemo:
Hi.

1) Phone to Download mode (power+home+volume down).

2) Flash pit file with odin and repartition checkbox (only pit file without firmware!!!).

3) Start Phone to Download mode again and flash stock firmware.

Front USB often means its not running full power as its not a direct motherboard feed but wired as a supplementary port .

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mellowmark:
Anyone know how come my dropbox web access on tablet hides first line of files or folders? Also how do you move the files from one folder to the other with the android app?
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sstar:
Hi I don't know why you're missing the first line unless it is to do with font size I have mine set to large and do get an overlap on some websites/apps .

Regarding moving files the only way I have been able to do it is by creating a new folder in dropbox and re-uploading the files to a specific folder I have created. Which is a bit long winded but doesn't really take to long if the files aren't to large.

Sorry I don't have anything more positive.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sstar:
I would seem that dropbox has addressed this problem with its latest update. All you do now is a long press on a file you wish to move, this will for want of a better word put it into edit mode all then do is put a tick in the box next to the file and any others you want to move and click on the send icon in the top right hand corner ( third one in ). This then brings up a menu asking where to send it ,just select any existing folder or create one before hand. The second icon in ,which looks like a couple of sheets of paper will copy your file/files to another folder without moving them .

I assume this is new as haven't noticed it before !!

Hope this solves your problem.

Hi

Benchmarks apps like AnTuTu are Quadrant are very polular.

This thread should give you some insights why the results

of such benchmarks should not be taken too seriously :)

"Real world" example:

KISS kernel with max 1.5GHz OC

Using scheduler "odemand" -> AnTuTu will score at about 4000

Using scheduler "smartassV2" -> AnTuTu will score at about 2800

(Quadrant results are similiar in ratio)

So how to "read" this:

The ondemand scheduler scales very fast to highest frequencies.

This means you will get higher numbers at the "cost"

of beeing not so good on battery life.

smartassV2 is "smarter" by doing this frequency upscale differently which leads

to lower numbers since a benchmark can not take that into account.

BUT actually you will not notice a difference in speed in "daily" usage of your device

whereass you will notice a difference in battery usage especially if you tune

the govener to a battery "friendly" profile

regards

max
[HTC One V] ckpv5:
Thanks for the explanation... I guess the real feel of the ROM is more important that the benchmark score.

Anyway, here is my benchmark score running your kernel at 1.5 smartassV2. single run.

Database IO is :good:
[HTC One V] maxwen:
Thanks for the results

For smartassV2 it also dependend on the "tweaks" you apply

So if you "force" values to be more performant "friendly". The values

are of course higher (CPU clock switching is faster then)

Have you changed any smartssV2 tweaks on your device for this

benchmark runs? The defaults are more performant friendly IIRC

BTW: you can run "my" getcpuinfo.sh script which will print out

all the govener settings

Regards

max

No change to smartassV2 tweaks, use it as it is.

you have downgraded your SPL, i dont know why you cant install that rom but you must be able to install a shipped rom if you have no roms on your phone! and remember! they all change your SPL to their own so choose the one that is not 4.xx or 5.xx if you want to RSPL or HSPL later!

Hi, I have the same problem too. After flashing rom downgrade RUU_Shubert_HTC_Europe_5.10.401.04_SLSPL_Signed_by_ansar program wrote the same mistake. BLDR is the Asian version 1.57 and simply can not be changed by DFT_XSPL utility. Otherwise everything works bootloader contains the following information:

PD29100 MFG SS-BC (4K)

SPL-1.57.2250.0 (113571)

MicroP (LED) 0x07TOUCH S1 (v.1.8,* 1624)

SD SANDISK 15193MB Class0

Partition Info-v211v413

Windows are version 7.0.7403.0 only in English and are located in Singapore. When connected via Zune updates are available, but only two are installed, other (7.5 Mango HTC) is a download Zune then writes the error 80180048 and the phone returns to the state before the first update.

I tried to change SPL version closer to 1.56 or 1.60 but after a successful upload and reboot there is still 1.57. When you boot the phone at the top left shows only:

BLDR: 1.57.2250

Modem: N/A

Then normally started WP7. I do not know what to do. I had a Deepshinning ROM 7.5 and I wanted to give the phone to the original state. After the problems I described what I downloaded about 5 different ROM, but not one I could not because of the bootloader to flash.Sorry for the very bad google translation. :(
