Any Poweramp users who use the Poweramp lockscreen controls?

After updating to DJ4 through Kies I have found that when using Poweramp, if I turn the screen on using the Power button the Poweramp lockscreen appears, but if I use the Home button it bypasses the Poweramp lockscreen and goes to the TW lock screen instead. Is this intended Home button behaviour? Anyone know a workaround to get the previous Poweramp behaviour back?
[Galaxy S III General] FDisk80:
Yep, same here. It's driving me crazy.
[Galaxy S III General] KennyLegend:
Has poweramp been optimised for jellybean yet?
[Galaxy S III General] FDisk80:
It's not a Poweramp problem. The Home button problem on JB is f****d up.
[Galaxy S III General] The S3 Kid:
Why is it when I click a YouTube link on Twitter or a web page it takes me to the YouTube desktop site? ICS would use the YouTube app.
[Galaxy S III General] KennyLegend:
It's not f****d up..... It works differently.

Pls restore an ics rom and stop reporting bugs that don't exist.

Don't not get the option to choose Web or app?
[Galaxy S III General] blazevxi:
Clearly there needs to be some clarification over a feature / bug.

A bug is something that doesn't work, a feature is something there for a function.

Well I can suggest a workaround, it worked for me....try it out...go to s-voice -> settings then enable 'OPEN VIA THE HOME KEY', u will get the poweramp lock screen when home key pressed and this will also fix that home key feature/bug whatever that is....pressing home key will take you back to opened application and not to the home screen, will just work as on ICS....:):D

So I've been using jellybean for a couple of days now and the battery seems about on par with ics. It seems to drop off a bit quickening the morning, where say when I used to get hone from work with use on ics I still had 85-80 battery left I know have 75-70 left, but it doesn't seem to drop so quickly in the evening now
[Galaxy S III General] Bun-G:
I don't know why I lost my text in the post with the attachments above, but...

Now I've been using jb for a few days I thought I'd give you an idea about the stock battery if your still waiting on the update.

It seems to lose it's charge more steadily throughout the day, where on ics I used to com home from work with about 85-80÷ left, now I come home with 75-70÷ left. Thats checking internet fb ect on a couple of cig breaks and a few emails, calls & txt messages on my lunch.

But when I used to tether home with ics and a couple of hours usage would see me reaching for the charger at around 15÷ it now seems to be able to deal with better heavy usage on jelly bean.

Say thanks if you found this helpful :D

OTA Update over cf root??

Hi guys,

I was waiting for the s3 Jelly Bean update to root my phone but my patience gave up yesturday and today the jelly bean updates are being rolled out in my area :(

I have installed CF Root SGS3 and yesterday, again with the luck, chainfire decided to stop supporting CF_Root and has started CF autoRoot. Which I really like as it won't increase the counter and also has the stock recovery.

The CF_Root post says that installing OTA updates is fine but will it work if I am updating to Jelly Bean or will my phone be bricked?

I wanted to ask this in the CF Root forum post but I don't have the required permissions :(
[Galaxy S III General] KennyLegend:
If u mean will cf root work after updating to JB, the answer is yes. Just flash JB, wipe, let boot, then flash cf root again after. Hope this helps.
[Galaxy S III General] Born2Model3D:
No, I meant will I be able to update using the OTA update that I received. Samsung is asking to install the update I have just put my phone on stand by :P
[Galaxy S III General] KennyLegend:
U should be able to use OTA's if u keep the same csc.
[Galaxy S III General] jshashwat93:
Which countries still have not got OTA?? India has not.
[Galaxy S III General] Born2Model3D:
Whats a CSC and all I have done till now is install CF Root for SGS3, so is it changed?

I don't mind doing some googleing but if you can help me out thats great :P

Getting really impatient. Jelly Bean is just one click away :D

---------- Post added at 04:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:27 PM ----------

Well few asian countries like Pakistan got it on 25th and the India update was going to come out in october so I am assuming this is it. Also the download took a lot longer then usual.

I am not sure but I don't wanna take the risk. What if its jelly bean and it bricks my phone cause I am using CFroot SGS3?!?!
[Galaxy S III General] El Mariach1:
Same in Slovenia.
[Galaxy S III General] jshashwat93:

Problem with JB after update

Hi all,

I know this might be answered somewhere in this awesome place, but unfortunately I couldn't find my way to it. If there is a place where I should go and look please point me to it.

Problem description:

" After updating from my stock android Rom to the official JB ROM using Kias... I started to have an issue with the WIFI connection. When I use a network with MAC filtering, it works fine. But, when I am connected to any other type of networks, it just keeps disconnecting, even when I'm standing exactly next to the AP... It is driving me crazy!!! I can't finish a single task on it now!.... I was looking how can I get my stock ROM back ( which i don't remember what is its number)... I hope (I'm sure somebody will help :) ) I can find help here!"

Device info:

Model Number : GT-I9300

Android Version: 4.1.1

Baseband version: I9300XXDLID

Build # : JRO03C.I9300XXDLJ1

P.S>> I guess one problem might be that this device is a UK manufactured, but I live in US. Probably the version I received is based on the location!!? Maybe?

Best to you all...!

[Galaxy S III General] KennyLegend:
Did u do a factory reset after upgrading?

If not, now would be a good time to do it.

It is Important cause u obviously came from ics or maybe gingerbread which are different bases.

You can do it in settings. But beware, back up ur apps, photos. Etc as factory reset will wipe ur phone.
[Galaxy S III General] myhussien:
Yes! I did many times, but nothing changed... I wanted to get back my original stock ROM, but honestly Never done it before and I don't know what it was :( . Seriously, I feel it is useless device now with this WIFI issue, since I don't use data plan!

Best,

- MHY
[Galaxy S III General] KennyLegend:
Flash a stock ics rom. Download from Sam firmware.Com or Perka.zapto.org

Turn on NFC, turn on wifi.

Then flash latest jelly bean rom followed by a factory reset.

This should sort ur problem.
[Galaxy S III General] myhussien:
Thank for the help. But as I said before, I have never flashed before, would u please let me if there is a place that has a step by step guide? Also how should I know what is the a appropriate stock ICS flash that I need to use, or all of them the same?

Best,

Update: using Sam firmware.Com, I found a UK ICS 4.0.4 since June... I guess this is the one I had before... But now I need to know how to flash it :)...

Thanks Again!

[Galaxy S III General] Mr_Twist:
Thanks for the quick reply, I have tried every day 2-3 times with Samsung Kies but gives me no update when I connect my phone with USB through my PC.

I have updated my phone before through Kies and haven't had any problems I don't know why this time is taking so long.
[Galaxy S III General] Sjaakbanaan:
I found that Kies kept updating, then restarting, but the update apparently failed because Kies was still the same version. It happened at least 3 times before I finally figured out the update was not affecting anything :eek:

To solve that, I decided to right-click -> choose 'Run as Administrator', and after that Kies successfully completed its update and found the JB upgrade my S3.

[Galaxy S III General] tweetatoo:
Hello.

I applied a stock firmware for JB 4.1.1 (I9300XXDLJ1) with CSC of XSG. After I connected the device to charger, the device kept rebooting until now in a fashion of reboot-standby-5seconds-reboot loop.

Any idea?

Exactly the same here. I've turned off Google Now but that doesn't seem to have made a difference. Overall I'm still glad I upgraded to JB but I really wish the battery would get sorted :(
[Galaxy S III General] disclaimernotice:
Well, on ICS, I could get between 4-5 hours of screen time. And now, on DL4J, I've been getiting slightly above 4 hours on the first few cycles. I assume the battery life will only get better once it's properly recalibrated.

[Galaxy S III General] disclaimernotice:
Okay, so after using jellybean DLJ4 for 5 days, here's what I can say about it:

1) Battery life is almost the same, perhaps only slightly worse but definitely not better

2) Project butter is poorly implemented. The system does run at 60fps all the time, but this means that the animations stutter and occasionally skip frames. So the overall UI is fast, but the animations are sometimes choppy. Biggest example is when you flick through the app drawer really fast

3) Wifi connection is very much improved. Not sure if it's because I was previously using a non uk firmware in the uk, resulting in poor compatibility with wifi frequencies here. Nonetheless, the speed of connecting is faster

4) Games lag slightly where they never had before on ICS. Examples include Dead Trigger and Modern Combat 3

5) Google Now is extremely accurate, though it's still quite gimmicky to me

6) Gallery seems sluggish

7) Pulling down the notifications bar occasionally causes lags, unlike on ICS

8) web browsing is smoother, but due to implementation of a mouse-hover-like feature (presumablytheme the note 2), sites like mobile Facebook have become difficult to use as you'd constantly open pictures when scrolling

9) Web browsing has permanent desktop mode so that's great

Overall, I think I'll stick with ICS for now until the lags are ironed out. The improved browser, wifi and google now aren't worth the significant stutters. I mean, on ICS, my phone never lagged 99% of the time, but on jb it's more common.

After 4 days of I9300XXDLJ4

- battery is ok (did not change)

- it makes it more buttery - but also laggy sometimes

- sometimes i have to press home or power button again, to activate touchscreen and use "swipe to unlock".

- sometimes no background on locked screen

- app icons and widgets get updated slower

- my messages are finally shown in my bmw system (E90 + CIC mid)

- browser feels a lot better: faster, more options, always desktop mode and brightness issues are gone

Battery and other issues

Hey all

I have had a few issues with csc's not working properly, strange battery drains and locks on boot screen etc. I eventually realized the problem and perhaps some of you may have over looked it as I did before.

KIES! I always heard Kies and Odin don't play well together but I figured kies isn't open and everything appears to work fine with Odin when flashing so I dismissed that as a possible cause for these issues - Battery drain, CSC problems, Stuck Boot etc. WRONG!

You need to Ctrl Alt Delete and kill all KIES processes running in the background before running and flashing with Odin.

After killing Kies COMPLETELY and flashing with Odin everything is perfect. Battery went from lasting 24 hours max to closer to 2 days. LJ4 Rom is running fast fluid and perfect. :D

[Galaxy S III General] Matcarroll:
My 2 pence worth about battery life. I flashed various different jb versions and was having awful battery drain. When the official btu version came out I thought it would resolve it but it didn't. I was draining 4-5% every hour. I uninstalled everything, installed bbs but couldn't identify anything and nothing rogue on bbs. I did a factory reset last night and reinstalled all my apps. Last night I drained 4% in 8 hours, that is so much better. As I said I have the same apps installed as before so it must have been corrupted somewhere between flashing. My advise, once flashed, do a full factory wipe and you will have all your battery woes sorted out.
