I'm having the same problem, chatted with Sony and they gave me an issue # and told me to send it to them. My att service has always sucked from my house but now is non-existence.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] osiris010:
I realize this is a year old but I just wanted to report back that since switching to a non Sony android phone (LG if it really matters) I have not had this issue once. My best guess is it's some Sony issue.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
You where not alone on this. I have a LT28at and had the same issue with JB only. After I switched to the Rogers JB I have had zero issue. While running a att base band on 211h it would work for some time but randomly drop resulting in no service. Then it would come back with no LTE what so ever. The only way I could fix it was to start over with a fresh flash. Very few of us ever had this happen and it seems to only effect the 28at version.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] manuelsavino:
Hello everyone! My phone is having an issue. For some reason its a mission to turn it on. I will show the samsung Logo, and then just a black screen with continuous vibrations which drain the battery. When i get lucky and I am able to book into CWM its gives me for errors saying

E:can't open /cache/recovery/log

E:can't open /cache/recovery/log

E:can't open /cache/recovery/log/last_log

E:can't open /cache/recovery/log/last_log

If i try to go to a menu like for example to do a restore from a NANDROID it seems like the power button is stuck it'll just press backup by it self, not even 5 seconds until doing the back up it'll turn off.

If I am able to get it to boot, It seems like the power button is stuck because the power menu keeps on popping up.

If it helps Im running AOKP JB Build 4. No kernel changes.

If it is the case that the power button has malfunctioned, is there any way I can set my phone back to stock so the T-Mo warranty can get me a replacement?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] noingwhat:
Originally I thought it would be a good idea to add boot animations to my Downloads Thread but I quickly realized how many animations there are and how different the formatting should be to make it effecient to preview them all quickly and easily.

So I've decided to compile this list of boot animations, mostly for our Galaxy SIII, but also some that aren't. It's broken up into two sections; the first is the animations which are formatted specifically for our device and are available in a recovery flashable download, the second section is more of an underdeveloped section where everything else will be posted. This section may or may not look correct on a device with our resolution, and you're on your own as far as figuring out how to install it (if it should directly replace the bootanimations.zip, if it's flashable etc). If I get a few people to request an animation in the second section, I will get it working just right and add it to the first list. So please, tell me what your favorites are!

The first list consists of a preview, and also a link to the OP where it was first posted, a link to a recovery flashable file, and a link to the bootanimation.zip which can be manually placed in the "data/local" folder on your device.

Love the boot animations man, they look great!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] crazydad:
Ok can you please remind me on how to install this again .... so that way no one else should be asking!!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] noingwhat:
The animations in the first list are setup to be super easy. You can download the flashable version and flash it using CWM or TWRP, or download the "manual" version, rename it "bootanimation.zip" and place it in "/data/local" using root explorer, ES File Explorer, or an equivelent.

The second section you are a bit more on your own. It's up to you to open it up and determine if it's a flashable zip, or if it's a bootanimation zip. If there are a few people who would really enjoy an animation in the second section, let me know and I will create a flashable zip for it and move it to the first section.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shangrila500:
Could you perhaps give me an idea of how to install one such as the Star Trek one? I downloaded it and it's definitely not flashable, but I have no earthly clue if I should push it or what in the he cl to do with it. Inside the zip it has desc.txt and 2 folders that say part 0 and part 1.

I am a little lost with that one.

On another note, thank you so so much for this great collection!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] joeylwood:
I'm looking for a ALABAMA CRIMSON TIDE logo can you help me please thank you
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] noingwhat:
It appears that with that one you need to rename it to "bootanimation.zip" and move it to "/data/local" and that's it. You can push it if you want, or you can just use a file browser as long as you are rooted.

Anything with the "desc.txt" and "part0" and/or "part1" simply need to be renamed "bootanimation.zip"

Would you be OK with simply a static image? If so, then if you can give me the image you'd like to use (remember our phone is 1280x720) then I can see if I can make one from scratch. It seemed pretty simple to me, and I'd love to give it a shot, but I can't promise anything.

Amazing Boot Animations... Anyone know how to change the first two boot images... one just says samsung next says Samsung Galaxy s3 then my synergy boot shows... Thanks in advance Guys
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] noingwhat:
Although I'm not certain, I believe those are both entangled in the bootloader which would make them extremely difficult to change, and even if we could it would be a really bad idea to do so because of something went wrong you would have just made a shiny new paperweight.

Thanks for posting these, very cool. I had the blue eyes on black animation on an older droid and it's my fave but when I put it in the /system/media folder and rename it bootanimation.zip (after naming bootanimation.zip to bootanimation.zip.bak), the vaery first animation of the blue eyes (eyes closed) appears for a couple of seconds and that's it...any chance you can either tell me where I am going wrong or turn it into a flashable file?

Thanks again!

sorry i'm fairly new to this and i am addicted to the cm9 cid bootanimation. is there a way you can make a flashable one for me. I tried going into the media and replacing the zip file but the boot gets stuck or it only works sometimes :(

right now i'm using the twitch9 bootanimation which is pretty badass but yeah, i'd prefer the cid ironman style one.

let me know, thanks.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JE1058:
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 (SPH L710) from Sprint that I rooted a few months ago. I'm not too familiar with rooting, but knew I needed to do it to utilize the Wifi Tether app I wanted to use. It's worked pretty well ever since, only have to re-start the wifi app sometimes to make it actually connect.

For the past week I've been getting tons of pop-ups advising that there's a new update I should accept and install. I would assume this is Jellybean. So, I have a few questions:

1. If I'm already rooted and I accept this, will it delete my root?

2. I have SuperUser v. 3.1.3 which has a check box "temp unroot" If I check this box then allow the over the air update, will it allow me to go back and uncheck this box after the uprade to JB, thus restoring my root?

3. I researched apps in the Playstore and came across one from Voodoo called "OTA RootKeeper" if I use this, (or can I even use it on this device?) will it allow me to simply accept the OTA upgrade and then it'll re-root the phone afterwards?

4. How can I disable the OTA pop-up notice?

Please excuse my elementary questions... I know enough to read a basic set of instructions to get the root on the device (I've previously rooted a few Evo's and unrooted one all successfully), I also know how to Google questions I have and tried using the search feature here, but didn't really see answers to the questions I have.

I'd appreciate the assistance!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Speedin07si:
It's not jb, but if your stock rooted just use root keeper and temporary unroot.

Take the update. But if you have a custom recovery it may fail to need stock recovery. But it won't harm your device.

The update they want me to load isn't JB? It's pretty big, like 85MB... Any idea what it is then? Think I can simply accept it and it'll install or will I need to check the temp unroot box in SuperUser first?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] billard412:
its the li3 update. Would temp unroot. you need stock recovery too with no altered system files. Would be easier to use one of the ones from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1904099 or here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1743923
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DrgnRebrn:
Once rooted, you cannot accept OTA updates due to having a custom recovery. You can get rid of the notification, without installing anything or losing root, two ways (that I know of). The easiest is by accepting the OTA and letting it fail.

Possibly the hardest/riskiest is to edit your build.prop and change everything that references the older build to the newer one, ie changing all LG8 references to LI3.

Updating is, once rooted, based upon preference. You should always investigate the changes from one version to the next, & decide if those address issue(s) you may have experienced. Updates will generally address one, or all, of the following: kernel performance (could impact battery life, hardware performanc, etc.), baseband performance (could impact cellular reception, network speeds, wifi performance, bluetooth, etc.), firmware updates (could impact overall hardware performance & functionality), &/or system software updates (could impact hardware/software performance, user interface).

The beauty of being rooted is that you have the choice of addressing all of the above at once, or being selective and updating only the items that address what you want them to. For example, you can choose to update your kernel only, or to just flash a new baseband & update your modem.

I choose to run a custom ROM based on the LG8 software build, paired with the leaked LIF baseband & firmware, and the stock LI3 kernel. I've found this combo to give me the best battery life, cellular & wifi performance, hardware performance, and stable day-to-day UI.

If you absolutely just have to have the latest of everything, use one of the methods described in the previous posts.

Good luck, and have fun!

EDIT: PRL can be updated regardless of root status...just an FYI...

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ArunOnline:
I am getting a new Samsung Galaxy S3 (SPH L710) this week. I will probably get the update notification too when I connect it to the internet. Can I apply the OTA and then do root?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jmdatcs:
That would be the easiest way. Get all the updates, then root once. But, you will need to use one of the previously mentioned methods for all future updates, like JB. When you get to that point, I have found the easiest way to do it is to get rid of the notification by letting the update fail, then waiting for one of the nice people here to offer a rooted version of the update w/kernel (odex, not deodex, unless you plan on developing stuff yourself) and an AIO (all-in-one) firmware update like here. You can just flash those through CWM or TWRP.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ArunOnline:
@jmdatcs: Thanks a lot for the reply. I will apply all updates and then will do the root using qbking77 method which I guess is the easiest or should I use the qcom toolkit?

I do not want to flash any custom ROM right away as it has ICS by default. I will get the custom ROM for Jellybean once its available, through CWM or TWRP as you mentioned.

There's a great modem flasher tool, ran through your stock recovery (CWM or TWRP), here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=29820376 or you can find the most recent leaked baseband here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=32152586 (this is also where you'll find the leaked JellyBean TouchWiz Rom).

I'd recommend staying away from the custom kernels though, until you're more confident in what you're doing.

I like OdexedBlue for several reasons, but it may not be right for you. You can view several review videos for several different ROMS at http://www.qbking77.com and figure out what will work for you, or figure it out by trying different ones out.

Read the threads - every post - use search to find answers, make sure you know what to do & expect before you flash anything, and have fun doing it!
