No KEIS update

If Samsung have notified that a Jelly Bean update is available in a country - in this case Thailand where the S3 was bought - yet it is not available via Kies or OTA what is the reason for this?

I'm not in Thailand at the moment. Is there an IP related issue? I can even swap out my current SIM for a Thai SIM (I often do this - which allows me to access Play Apps which may be unavailable in my current country, a simple work around..) yet still no JB update in Kies.

How can we get hold of an update that's supposed to be available yet clearly isn't.. mind blowing Android update procedures..

My phone is GTI9300i international version bought unlocked in Thailand. The Samsung run update site for JB reports it is now available for download in Kies/OTA.

4.0.4

I9300TDULH1

3.0.15-CL985643-user

Thanks :)
[Galaxy S III General] karimakki:
I already checked and couldn't find the 4.1 upgrade. Can't you specify which one suitable for my phone
[Galaxy S III General] propodkin:
very weird but after updating to JB my S3 will no longer charge in my official dock

any idea's
[Galaxy S III General] boulek:
I did so but cannot find what to do next
[Galaxy S III General] BOversoe:
I updated my samsung galaxy S3 to 4.1.1 via KIES the other day.. I am having huge problems with it. It hangs every time I try to text(The keyboard hangs, and the text takes forever to send) and the camera now takes around 30 seconds to open. And in general many of the apps are very slow. Anyone else having these problems? Or anyone have any ideas how to fix this??
[Galaxy S III General] NfScLambo:
So, when can we expect a JB ROM for INU?

I thought it would be one of the first, since it is one of the launch countries, if I'm not mistaken.

There are other countries that have already go JB, and yet none for INU. :(

edit: Also, does it matter if we have got the phone in a different country to the country it is being operated in?

For example, I got the phone from India, when I was there, and now I'm not in India, so I'm not using an Indian SIM card.

Hmmm....may be I should just put an Indian SIM card in and only use Wi-Fi, and see if it DOES send the update through.

I'll try it in a couple of hours after I reach home :)
[Galaxy S III General] Mr_Twist:
I have been having a few problems since I updated to JB. Battery life is the main one so I'll see how I get on for a couple of days and maybe try a factory reset.
[Galaxy S III General] IndianHacker:
Friends,

I have S III that I bought in Thailand and now using in India. Today, after reading this thread, I checked if the JB update is available on the phone but it was giving that 'try again later...' message. So, I opened Kies and it said it needs to be updated for firmware management. After doing that, when the phone is connected, it shows screen as attached in the image..

Now, can someone please help me get the answers of the following couple of questions I have?

1. Based on the current firmware version shown by Kies (PDA:LG8 / PHONE:LH1 / CSC:LG8 (BTU), which stock firmware file should I download and keep from this page in case I have to restore back after upgrading to JB?

2. If I want to upgrade to the version shown by Kies (PDA:LJ4 / PHONE:LID / CSC:LJ4 (BTU) but not using the Kies software, which firmware should I download?

Thanks!

My galaxy s3 just got updated to jellybean...but now my google voice app wont work when i try dialing international numbers.....can anyone help me on this front???
[Galaxy S III General] janeku_a:
Hi, after installing Jelly Bean on my SGS3 i found out that when rebooting there is only sound and there isn't any animation as before. Do someone else have this problem? Also i've noticed that when i'm receiving a call the screen makes lag ( first the background screen is coming than the answer screen comes).

Forgot to mention that on geek bench 2 results are way lower than on the ICS ( on the ICS i got around 1800 and now 1300 points).

Some suggestions would be nice, because i'm new user of android devices.

Thanks
[Galaxy S III General] KennyLegend:
1. You need to do a factory reset after updating to JB from ics.

2. You should have killed all kies processes as mentioned above and flashed with odin.
[Galaxy S III General] achugar:
I have to say the same. After i update to Jelly Bean via OTA i have a lot of lags here and there.

The good:

- Facebook is now faster (at least the scrolling)

- Youtube open a little bit faster than ICS

The bad:

- There is a little lag in the transitions when you press the home button (only when you have a some apps open)

The very bad:

- battery last shorter than ICS, not a lot but noticeable worst battery life.

- Photo gallery doesnt show full screen when in landscape

- When you zoom in a photo has a lot of lag when move in the image

- Gmail, when scrolling in a message the text needs a little to render, this doesnt happened with ICS.

Im thinking about doing a hard reset but i dont want to lose my apps, anyway maybe that will help me.

If someone has an opinion about what can i do to fix these problems, thanks
[Galaxy S III General] KennyLegend:
Read my post above yours. You need to do a factory reset if you've come from ics as it's a new base. Otherwise u will have lag.
[Galaxy S III General] achugar:
Thank you for your reply. I will do a factory reset and then i will post the results.
[Galaxy S III General] KennyLegend:
Bear in mind, battery will take a while to settle, esp as Google now gathers information. Probably a week or so. So expect bad battery for a few days.
[Galaxy S III General] janeku_a:
I'm little confused, i have updated my GS3 via OTA to JB and some apps lags, but is factory reset needed? Will i lose something with the reset? I have seen on some posts that factory reset is needed when updating via kies...

Sorry for my stupid questions :)

And yes gallery was better on ICS, here we don't have the full screen view in landscape mode :(

Thanks again and sorry for these stupid questions, because i'm new to android.
[Galaxy S III General] KennyLegend:
New to android or not new to android... U should read a bit of the thread before asking questions....

(hint.... First few pages and last few pages normally suffice).

I will say it ONCE more.

If you come from a different base then u should do a factory reset after updating. (for example gingerbread to ics, ics to jb).

Factory reset WILL wipe ur internal sd which means all apps, settings, music, photos, the lot. There are ways to back these up before you do this.

For backing up apps and restoring later you can use Titanium Backup.

For backing up sms, call logs etc and restoring later you can use My Backup.

BUT.... The programs above will create backup files on ur internal sd. So... If u use them to back up, transfer these files off ur internal sd BEFORE doing a factory reset.

THEN... After flashing, transfer TiBu and rerware My backup folders back onto ur internal sd card BEFORE attempting to restore.

IF Titanium bu doesn't detect any backup folders, then reboot and try again.

I hope I haven't left out anything and I hope I've been clear.

And oh... U should use OTA or Odin for flashing. ;)
[Galaxy S III General] ShironLive:
Hmm. i did a factory reset twice, and my phone is laggy as hell after JB update.
[Galaxy S III General] KennyLegend:
Then restore ics ;)

I am not having this problem.

[Galaxy S III General] dehsA:
My phone is the Thai version and about a week ago decided to flash the UK firmware. Found out that AGPS wasn't really working and as a noob I had no idea why. Tested it with the GPS Test app but it would stay yellow until I went out into the open. Figured it might have something to do with the modem so I flashed the Thai firmware yesterday and the issue still remains. GPS is hopeless indoors.

Yes, I made sure "Use wireless networks" and "Use GPS satellites" are both checked under Location services.

Anybody facing the same issue? :confused:
[Galaxy S III General] clamitas:
I think JB is just wonderful. Better battery life and much smoother with Project Butter.

I'm now on Omega rom but I have tried the stock JB and it was better than ICS.
[Galaxy S III General] Sumea:
Oh nice. I was gonna ask in some general thread to see how people are feeling with the battery life. To me with the NEE release, it feels bit worse. And I think it is quite significant seeing I been using my phone for three months, almost actively daily, I watch a lot of youtube and read even some books so the screen does get most of use, but it still feels weirdly faster. Even when off and sleeping it seems to eat one or two percents in hour.

Of course I am trying to ascertain is it "just be and my feels" rather than actual problem. I already completely wiped and reinstalled all of my apps to wipe any incompatibility. If it is just meant to be this way I will just put CF-autoroot on this installation and use my phone this way. I like samsung's own ideas like the status bar from fullscreen and so on.
[Galaxy S III General] ecastanyos:
There is any news about JB 4.2?
[Galaxy S III General] KennyLegend:
Well seeing as 4.1.1 is rolling out now then I suspect well see Sammy 4.2 in... ......

Probably in about 6 months :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S III General] Alestilohomer:
Spain already had JB, but today has updated to DLJ4. :victory:
[Galaxy S III General] ecastanyos:
Ups......thanks for cheer me up!! :crying:
[Galaxy S III General] Matcarroll:
I did a factory reset and recommended it but after a week or so, it wasnt worth it! Battery still draining at about 3% per hour when not in use. Bbs doesn't identify any rogue app or wakelock but on my battery page, something is waking it up and using battery. I must have a rogue app using battery but cannot for the life of me identify it! I habeas disabled all Samsung junk, turned off Google now and s voice and location services and most other stuff but still draining!
[Galaxy S III General] achugar:
Ok now that i had made a factory reset:

Jelly Bean now run a little bit smoother than before but, and this is a big but:

- Photo gallery remains the same. No full screen photos in landscape (notification bar space is in the top) and also and most important: if you take a picture in 8mb resolution when you zoom in that photo, scrolling is slow and has a lot of lag.

- Gmail app remains whit lag for rendering text inside messages.

The rest is good. But above problems doesnt happened with ICS.

Overall i fell ICS a little bit smoother, dont get me wrong, i mean smoother not faster.

(sorry for my english im from Uruguay - South America)
[Galaxy S III General] Matcarroll:
Right, with me, my drain is DEFINITELY caused by WiFi been on. As soon as I disabled it this afternoon my drain stopped. Just turned it on again and the drain has started again. I have a very strong WiFi signal whether on 2.4ghz or 5ghz.
[Galaxy S III General] KennyLegend:
Fair enough... Gallery is a little sluggish. I agree here. That's why I use "Quickpic" from Gplay. I've always found it better.

Glad u found ur cause of drain. Have u tried a custom kernel that block multi cast packets from ur router?

Ur problem is most likely that ur router is sending out packets at regular intervals to keep all connected devices awake.

Maybe try changing channel.

Perseus and Siyah kernel both have a patch for this.
[Galaxy S III General] Ballgirl:
fixed battery drain

I thought I'd join and post my findings.

I have an UK stock unlocked, unbranded handset. I originally upgraded to JB via Kies and experienced massive drain on battery. Tried factory reset, turning off google now but still didn't improve.

I booted into recovery, performed reset and wiped cache. Then when it booted I decided to try flashing via Odin.

Now my battery is on par or even better than ICS. Used it a lot today as a WiFi hotspot and its still showing 41% battery remaining after being on 16hrs. Its quite obvious when the phone was in hotspot mode from the chart.

So I'm not sure what exactly sorted it, but hope what I've found helps
[Galaxy S III General] Matcarroll:
It's the same on router at home and also at work. I didn't have this problem with ics. I have set WiFi to not stay on when sleeping so let's see if this makes a difference.
[Galaxy S III General] 4eye5:
I am a noob

I dont know the difference between kernel and rom, even with help of google it stays a blur.

I need help.

I have Galaxy S III GT I9300, Croatian T-mobile, installed Voodoo SIM Unlock.

I have tried to update to JellyBean, but update breaks at 31% every time.

I have googled the problem and searched this forum but no luck.

Please, anyone.

Thank you
[Galaxy S III General] prasadns26:
It is because of your wifi just trying with wifi off... Should be ok
[Galaxy S III General] Matcarroll:
I know what your saying but I didn't have this problem with ics. I'm sick of turning stuff off, soon I won't have any apps installed to save battery! What's the point of a bloody smart phone if you can't use it!
[Galaxy S III General] KennyLegend:
It should. Or turn off WiFi at night etc.

But.... U shouldn't have to.

Run bbs, see what's keeping ur phone awake and try sort it from there. There's a dedicated thread in android themes nd apps too.

Also, u might try Perseus kernel. Flash via cwm or Odin. I find it gives excellent battery life without sacrificing performance and has a patch for wifi drain.

Siyah kernel also has this multi cast packets block thingy if u would like to try this but in my opinion has slight higher drain.

Firstly, rom is the software on ur phone (or firmware). Kernel is the interface between rom and hardware.

Secondly, more info needed. How did u try to flash, what firmware were u on etc etc etc

Hello can anyone givme totorial how to instal CyanogenMod 9.1.0 on my xperia arc s

Android version on my phone is 4.0.4 LT18i 4.1.B.0.587
[Xperia Arc General] Yovecio:
1)extract the boot.img from the cm9 rom downloaded

2)put in the sdcard the cm9 rom

3)flash kernel(boot.img) from fastboot mode with adb: put the boot.img in the "platform-tools" directory of your adb, then from terminal launch command fastboot flash boot boot.img

4)go into recovery and do a full wipe(data/factory reset, cache partiton and dalvik cache)

5)flash throught recovery the cm9 rom with "install from sd" and wait the finish

6)reboot and enjoy

7)*not sure*, if you have arc s, after boot install from market "no frills cpu" and check frequency of cpu, if it says 1ghz, you must oc it to 1.4 ghz to have the original arc s cpu freq
[Xperia Arc General] KoKoOo:
the boot.img i cant extract why winrar is not supported with the file how to extract the file ?
[Xperia Arc General] Dirrtydog:
You must extract THE boot.img from the cm9.rar archive. And that boot.img file you must copy into the fastboot folder. After that you copy the initial downloaded cm9.rar file on you phone's sd card.
[Xperia Arc General] spidermoon:
And to avoid some question, the bootloader must be unlock, you must be root, a backup must be done before (clockmodwork and TB) :D

problem with wi-fi

I got a problem with the wi-fi... everything was working smoothly for about two weeks, untill last night!

the wi-fi is not connecting, when its on, I got the list of networks that are available, and when trying to connect, its writing:

obtaining IP adress, --> saved, secured with WPA/WPA2---> CONNECTING --->obtaining IP adress--->Avoided poor internet connection

what does it mean? why does it happen? anyone suggests any solution? it happens with every possible network

You need to install a root file manager.

Then go to /data/misc/dhcp and delete all the files in the folder.

If it happens again, just repeat the procedure. This has been going on for a while, but no permanent fix for now.
