Hi there,

In a nut shell what has happened:

-Phone went through washing machine

-Phone placed in rice for 3 days. Recovered and was working fine afterwards. Only issue was reception bars not as good as before. Overall, phone worked fine for 2 weeks until...

-Phone was charged with portable usb charger for 2 hours

-When came back to phone, it was really hot to touch. Switched it on, it forced reboot.

-Left the phone for a few minutes to cool, reboot it again. It was functional for about 30-40 seconds (you can even make a short phone call) - but eventually it locks up and crashes again. This process continued after many trials.

-Flashed via odin official stock 4.1.1 JB - stuck on samsung animation. Also, when in recovery mode, volume buttons are very unresponsive.

Story in full:

My friend's phone has suffered quite a bashing recently. It went through the washing machine a few weeks ago - but survived. We put it in a rice bowl for three days and after a while it was back to normal - all functions working as usual. Reception seemed to be not as strong as before, but it more or lessed worked 95% as it did before the washing machine incident.

Now, the issue:

I plugged it into a portable charger (I've used this charger on my own i9300 before with no issues). I left it to charge in my bag to charge when 2 hours later I went to take it out. The phone was really hot and the phone itself was off. I switched it and it booted - I noticed it was charged to about 70%. But then the phone locked up and it forced reboot.

I assumed it was the heat, so I just pulled the battery out and let it settle down for a while. I put the battery back in and the same problem occurred. I could use the phone for about 30 secs when it just locks up and reboots. I go into my recovery screen (TWRP) and it does the same - crashes and reboots.

The problem persisted all day and so I just gave up - reflashed via odin stock 4.1.1 JB. It flashed fine, or appeared to anyway - but when the phone goes to boot it is stuck on the samsung screen.

What happened? Is my phone broken for good? Did somehow the portable charger fry the insides of the phone? :(

Any suggestions?
[Galaxy S III General] Hujbalo:
Another strange thing is when I insert an external sd card it works fine. WTF?
[Galaxy S III General] mustang2012:
I honestly think your phone is f..ked up when you left in the washing machine. Sounds like hardware problem and u should see a phone repairer for an opinion. Was it you the one that wanting to go back to iphone?

Ahh.... never leave snything in the washing machine next time:)

Probable wet components degraded on the motherboard and or moisture has allowed tracking between components .

[Galaxy S III General] Hujbalo:
Hey,

Yep that's me - but this is a friend's GS3, someone I swayed onto Android. I'm still using the GS3. It's fine now. But yes - the phone is pretty wonky. Again, it works fine with an sd-card inside, but take it out and the symptoms above persist.
[Galaxy S III General] Hujbalo:
Situation update:

Everything works fine better than ever ONLY when an EXTERNAL SD card is installed. When none is installed the phone will crash, even in recovery mode

WTF?
[Galaxy S III General] mustang2012:
Very strange ...... I doubt if any one can help you here..... specially when the phone works fine with ext sd card install ed.... I suggest take it to Samsung technical personnel or phone repairer for an opinion. By the way whart part of Asia are you from if you don't mind asking ..... :)
[Galaxy S III General] Hujbalo:
Hi I'm an Australian, but of Taiwanese origin. Yourself :)?

Also the external memory card literally is like this phones lifeline. You select unmount and it continues to work. But as soon as a physically eject the card the phone freezes, from here I have approximately 30 seconds to put the card back in, if I don't it freezes, if I do it returns to normal.

It's literally it's pace maker lol
[Galaxy S III General] hefonthefjords:
Sounds like one of the BGAs under the sdcard reader has bad solder joins to me. The extra preassure provided by the card is physically completing the connection.

Partially disassemble and test by pressing the area by hand to verify.

Repair will require significant skill and a hot air reflow station.
[Galaxy S III General] mustang2012:
Hey... I am also Australian with Korean background. .... :)

I want to go to taipei one day....
[Galaxy S III General] Hujbalo:
Cool,I'd love to visit Korea :)
[Galaxy S III General] mustang2012:
I actually pm you pls check your pm.....
[Galaxy S III General] manemzjum:
Exactly what is the problem here

You say phone works fine 100% when an external sd is installed

So leave an external sd card installed problem solved

Does anyone else's DNA not notify them when receiving an MMS or group message?

My lone gripe with this phone is the messaging experience.

Sent from the King's DNA

I got a mms yesterday and it notified me. No issues.

sent from HTC Droid DNA on Verizon.
[HTC Droid DNA] CISGS:

Cannot send text messages Viper Rom

I read alot. I don't post alot. Wish I did because I have a legit issue and I cannot for the life of me get it figured out. I cannot send text messages on my DNA using the Viper DNA rom (Version 1.1.3).

Here are the specs if it helps.

Rooted and S-OFF

Radio is: 1.01.01.0110

Kernel is 3.4.10-dsb9938.Cubed.DNA.Stock.System.Write

Rom is ViperDNA 1.1.3
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
What carrier are you on.
[HTC Droid DNA] Unphazed MD:
I have the same problem sometimes. I will get a text message but I wont get a notification. If i open my messages it will be there.

I am on Cubed + viper 1.1.3 S-OFF, ENG bootloader.

The problem comes and goes. I did a bunch of system cleaning (cleaning up unused apps/data, cleared cache/dalvik, fix permissions, etc) and the problem seems to be gone for now. But i can definitly tell you I was having the same problem. I suggest doing some of the above and seeing if it changes anything
[HTC Droid DNA] uppon2:
I am from Australia and I have issues sometimes too running on GSM!. Things like failed texting and even calls failing because my phone thinks I'm dialling overseas. I resolved all of mine by changing all of my numbers to their country code extended file name. for example numbers in Australia look like this "0403045209" but I have now added my country code which is "+61" while using this code the first digit of the number needs to be dropped. In the end the number looks like this +61403045209. Everything now works perfectly fine.

If you are thinking to yourself oh crap now I need to go through and edit them all. The easiest solution is to go to your computer and log in to your gmail, up the top left you will see the "google" logo. Just underneath that you will see "gmail" click on this and change it to "contacts" - This might sound stupid me explaining it but it took me ages to figure this out lol.

I don't know if changing your numbers to their extended country code form will help, but it's worth a shot. For me, if I didn't do this, my phone thought I was dialling overseas. I think it is due to being Verizon, I dunno.

EDIT* I only needed to change "mobile numbers"
[HTC Droid DNA] Jaybone073:
Carrier is Verizon. I thought at first I was cleaning to much. I run a very lean setup. Very lean. If its on the debloat list chances are that I have removed it. The problem seems to have disappeared for the time being. I did a standard reboot and called someone and asked them to text me and it worked. Perhaps the problem may have been the radio because I had just flashed it when the problem started.

All is well for now.

As far as fixing permissions... I have a question there. The recovery I use is CWM Touch and it has a fix permissions option, however, the Viper DNA rom also has a fix permissions in its tweak options. Which one should I use? Should I use both?
[HTC Droid DNA] uppon2:
They both do exactly the same thing. The difference is, with Viper you will actually see the progress as each app is done. Give it a shot!
[HTC Droid DNA] Jaybone073:
Figured as much

I pretty much assumed they did the same but I did the Viper one. I like the status and it keeps me from booting to recovery to do the work. Finally something I can do to be a little lazy. Ha. This coming from a man who 2 days ago had never used adb in his life. Now, thanks to the xda forums and research, I have achieved alot with this DNA. Official ota blocking, root, boot imaging, kernels, roms, s-off, superCID, bootloader unlocking... and I'm sure the list will grow and grow.

As stated before, I read a great deal more than I post. I know search is my friend too. Lol. If the issue arises again with the sms or mms problem I will be sure to post on it. Need to get the count up anyway in hopes that should I need more help I will be able to post where it's needed. But it's hard to post a question when so much is easily laid out for you and the development team is rocking out gold.
[HTC Droid DNA] uppon2:
There won't be a great deal more to learn to be honest. You have already reached the hardest of it, unless you plan to get in to developing
[HTC Droid DNA] Jaybone073:
You never know. It's a possibility. Being a smartphone owner is much like being a true biker. Sure, you love your bike but you always want something more. Never happy with status quo. There is always something to research, something you want to add or do. Now you could get a mechanic to do it but the feeling isn't as good unless you do it yourself. And I have modded my motorcycle withing my capabilities, so naturally my next project may be my phone. I think I will practice with my spare thunderbolts first though. Lol.
[HTC Droid DNA] beddachedda:
I will get a notification, but when I click on the notification in the drop down, it will send me to the individual messages of the sender, instead of the group text, so I have to exit out and then enter the group thread.

Minor annoyance.
[HTC Droid DNA] r0nz3y:
i have the same issue.

Running digital dream v1.5 on my droid dna verizon.

Bell Canada is my carrier.
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
If you click on the notification between when you receive the message and when the MMS portion of it is downloaded(which is where the fact that it is a group message is held) then this will happen. It is to be expected.

I will also be happy to try to anser questions about Vanir here.

Does this have Facebook Contact Sync?

In screenshot the icon looks different.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbear6708:
Dammit...looks good. Going to flash!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] know8677:
After a month or so on a ROM that was working good for me, I got bored and thought I'd flash this over the holidays.

Just finished and got it all set-up. Everything generally seems to be working OK. I'll report back on battery life later.

One issue I noticed right away is that the symbols key next to the spacebar on the keyboard doesn't display the symbols if you long press. I believe that has something to do with the inverted look. I think menu selections for several apps including Chrome are also affected.

Another minor issue (for me) is that I'm not a fan of the search icon being gone from the Play store. Having to choose it from the menu just seems like an extra step.

Finally, I'd love to see more settings options in the notification pulldown. GPS should be there for sure, but I'd also like to see Torch or flashlight as well.

If the battery seems OK, I may keep this for awhile and just deal with the keyboard issue and other missing menu selections.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DHO:
I think all the above will be fixed in next build. A good intendioned commit went awry.

I run it as ab option. It is not included
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] know8677:
It definitely looks like it has a lot of potential and I really liked some of the features.

Unfortunately, it wouldn't wake up at some point so I re-flashed my old ROM.

More unfortunately, it looks like since Ad Free was baked in, it now won't let me reinstall Ad Free on another ROM. It must have made some changes somewhere and I get a message that Ad Free can't start because it looks like I have an old version. I uninstall, reinstall and get the same thing. Any ideas on how to fix would be appreciated. I really like using Ad Free.

I'd definitely be interested in trying your ROM again once the wrinkles get ironed out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DHO:
I am including leankernel with newer builds as Zen kernel is was not doing it for me... that should fix the reboot issue

And I do believe ut us an issue with Ad Free and not the ROM though I could be mistaken (all I have is the host file, there is no components). When I delete this host file is has no affect. App was last updated in May, soo hoping it is on their side.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigbear6708:
New features or just a kernel swap!??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] idiotzach15:
Gamma

so in the OP in the recommended settings it says gamma 1.2 .... I have a feeling this is not correct... or am I wrong?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] know8677:
I was running Ad Free before flashing with no problem, but now when it tries to open it says something about a fatal error and an older version of Ad Free. I doubt it just stopped working on my phone on its own.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mldiroff:
Running fantastic. Very smooth. Thanks DHO.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] asdecker:
Only thing I found was the phone would not go into airplane mode.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] donnyp1:
Does this rom restore your apps without tibu?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DHO:
A couple new features, Quick settings the biggest

There are different color measuring schematas. THe one I use (franco's) gamma 1.2 looks very good. BUt everyone's phone is different. My colors are applied on first boot then the script destroys itself, so you can change them after

I am looking into this. I cannot see what it would not be working. We do include an ad-block host file, but no other components. And removinf the host file has no affect. I am trying to explore this.

Not currently

Thank for the feedback. Did you do a dirty or clean install?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] donnyp1:
Is there a way without tibu to auto restore? The reason i ask is that the last rom was fantastic, fast, great battery. I got a good set up now, but alot of extra work to reinstall everything manually. I dont care for tibu. Thanks dude.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DHO:
Good catch

Indeed B47 is up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bbm21:
So when I turn on expand desktop the notification bar doesn't go all the way down. Is there a way to fix this, or another way to hide the notification bar Cuz i use pie
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Txwolf1980:
Mine hides fine. Maybe try a reboot?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bbm21:
Hmm i did that's weird
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] natezire71:
Prime fixed this for Vanir. It's been merged and it's working now. The next build DHO posts will have this fix.

This ROM and AK cylon 801 works perfect for me. :)

Remember.. Results may vary. :good:

Ill post some screenshots later. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MBQ_:
Honestly bro, whatever you did this release, you did something right. I mean this when I say this: my phone has never been more responsive, ever. The battery life is absolutely incredible as well. I am honestly blown away by this specific build of the ROM. Here are some screenshots: (sorry in advance if any of these screenshots are ridiculously huge, let me know if they are and ill remove it/them)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matthew0776:
Gotta give it a run today have been running the "other" vanir based rom for over a week(love it). Time to come back to COMMOTIO...and check out what DHO has dropped on us... :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MBQ_:
It ROCKS.

Try out the AK kernel 801 cylon, it has been the most successful for multiple users. I cant promise it'll work the best for you, but.. Statistically speaking, there is a high probability it will :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Citizen_Snips:
MBQ you run this ROM?!!!?!?! Have you tried it with 099? What's your average SoT with heavy usage? I'm getting over 3 on your build. This was the ROM I was going to try but a friend suggested Xylon so that's how I ended up there. Might just have to try dual booting this alongside Xylon!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MBQ_:
Yes :)

Im using Cylon 801

And cant determine that yet, this is my first day on a full charge

:good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DHO:
Primedirective is in the middle of a huge rebase of expanded desktop and PIE. But I cannot replicate the error. But I will keep an eye out for it.

Next build should have a the completed rewrite.

I was thinking of adding AK47 kernel to B47,..... but got lazy :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Txwolf1980:
Check tiny's kernel, as well. I generally wind up on it, no matter what I'm flashing
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bbm21:
OK good to know. Other then that its really an incredible ROM, i have never seen a ROM this smooth
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Citizen_Snips:
Hi. The OP says gapps are included, however using goo manager app, when I go to the ROM it has two options. Download and download gapps. Should I flash those or no? Just a little confused... Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Txwolf1980:
Just the rom. No Gapps are needed
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wund3rground:
I could not, for the life of me, get Titanium to work. Kept stalling out no matter what.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Txwolf1980:
I've run into that a few times. I keep meaning to hit the Dev up, and forget. I generally just force stop, and start the "missing apps" process over, skipping the one it stalled on. A lot of times, I've noticed, that it'll install the one it "stalls" on just fine. It's almost like the progress bar sticks, but the actual write process continues fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pierceye:
Running B47 with no problems to speak of. Had a hiccup right after flashing where the gallery app didn't recognize the pics already on the device. I could see they were present with the file explorer so I waited a little bit and then opened the camera to take a test shot and noticed that everything was present in the gallery. Strange, but I guess it just took a while for things to settle in. My only other question is about preventing notification icons from pushing system icons off of the notification bar when in tablet UI. Am I missing a check box to prevent this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] infinit22:
Is WiFi tether working on this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Citizen_Snips:
Yup. Just used it fine. AK 099 if it makes a difference. DHO love the ROM man. Great job. Very fast, very smooth. I like it a lot:thumbup: Solid

I know I'm a little late to the party here, but I just updated to B47 today. It's awesomely fast. I also flashed the AK.801.Cylon kernel (per a previous post recommendation) and that seems to working out nicely as well. Things are faster and smoother than in B46. Nice work!

There is only one thing that seems to be bugging me though. I have a bunch of custom launchers installed (apex, buzz, nova, sslauncher, others I'm forgetting) and for some reason I cannot uninstall or disable them. I was able to do this just fine in B46 (at least I think I was, lol). I'm guessing since apex comes preloaded this was only supposed to be a setting for apex? I usually flip back and forth between launchers and just to make things work better I like to disable launchers so they don't start running again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Txwolf1980:
Interesting. Same here. I wonder if it's a vanir thing? You might try a home switcher from the play store. It won't disable, the way you've been doing it. But, honestly, if you clear default and swipe it away in recents, you should have the same effect. And a switcher would let you swap launchers on the fly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ZubaZ:
K, thanks. I'll have to try that. If for some reason a launcher bugs me enough and I decide it has to be uninstalled I might try using a file manager to remove it.

hands down best rom i ever had the pleaure of running. only one ?

i am so grateful for this rom w/tiny kernel 3.4.1 and i am never leaving it as long as i got my nexus. I have never and i mean never have seen a difference in battery life when swapping roms and im talking about crack flashing man. now i finally get to enjoy the satisfaction of better battery performance like i have read others having so many times before. there is not one weak spot anywhwere on this badboy. Commotio/Vanir-b47.......you complete me. ok,ok,ok anyways THANK YOU DHO! you rock dude. so my one and only question....my long press options for navbar keys are not working it seems. i dont know if they did and ended up not working later or if they just never worked because i actualy dont even use that option for the keys. i did decide to set them up and im not getting any actions. my navring targets long press works. i have the box ticked to allow longpress for navring targets. i dont see a box to tick for the navbar buttons so i dont know if i am missing something or if its faulty. any help or insight would be great thanks!

best battery performance of ever！

Commotio-B47/AK Kernel
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DHO:
I was away for the weekend,... I alwats read every response, but sometimes takes few days

Maybe send me a logcat? Also which app?

If I can replicate I can fix

I have seen this occasionally, only after just adding, and usually when taking from the lockscreen. I am pretty sure it is related to the app and not the OS, but I have not extensively looked into it yet.

Does for me, but is kernel dependent.

just use down + power

Honestly vanir prob has the option, but never used it :p

Apex is included as a system app for better performance. The others I do not use, but may install as a system app.

System apps cannot be Uninstalled via system/apps. You can uninstall via market, titanium, or root explorer.

This is normal aosp behavior

Navibar is undergoing a HUGE rewrite. Hopefully will be resolved shortly.
