[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stanleyopar2000:
I have a really bad problem, my gf and I recently both got the Verizon galaxy s3 from Amazon wireless. I happen to like mine. In a day I rooted, flashed Synergy and won't go back.

Now..my gf's galaxy is a different story. From day one,.Hers likes to shut off by itself or become unresponsive (with the blue light blinking in sleep mode. The only fix is to pull the battery and restart.

Here is what I've tried..

Browse the hell out of forums (mainly yours)

Changing stock settings.

Flashed a custom ROM to see possibly it's the stock rom was broken. Same issue

Used my battery to see if it was a bad battery.still didn't fix it

Flashed a different kernel to see if the kernel is to blame. No dice.

Wiped to stock using Odin. Nuh uh.

I'm pretty much out of options.

I'm thinking about sending it back.

Hers has Synergy on it atm. If no one has any options left, can I just Odin back to stock, lock the bootloader, and use triangle away?

Thanks:D

What build was your Synergy ROM? I've had difficulties with any ROM after about 3/23 due to some problems with the whole 3.4 thing. I'm not familiar with the Synergy ROM (obviously I've heard of it, but I don't like the stock "feel") and the problems that I've encountered have been on AOKP and CM based ROMS. But you may want to try flashing an earlier build. I went back to a build of the ROM I use from 3/13 and the problems I had that were similar to the ones you described stopped.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NZitney:
I've been running synergy for months now, and with almost all of their different releases. I have never had random reboots like that though. If you are using r420, or pretty much any of the newer releases, make sure you are doing a full wipe and not restoring any app data. That's the only way to make sure it isn't the ROM causing it. If it's still a problem, use that manufacturer warranty
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] blueb0x:
SynergyROM is awesome agreed. I had similar problems at one point due to my voltage settings. Not all phones are created equal. Increased voltage and changed governor to 'on demand' because 'interactive x' had problems at the moment.

Some have just flashed a different kernel but imo ziggy is a genius and I will rock his kernel as long as he makes one.

The issue is one one of the builds ziggy and I think phones with rev4 couldn't handle the low volt

The blue light blinks or stays on for a bit like when booting.?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] barrackOBAMA:
Clearly..... It your phone does it on a stock kernel,

I highly doubt the software is causing it.

It sounds like somewhere across the line you have a hardware issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stanleyopar2000:
Oh damn...hardware..that's what I suspected. Should I do the three steps (odin, re-lock , triangle away) and send it back to Amazon?..or sammy?

And will they know if I messed with it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Recon0212:
I'm having the exact same problem with the latest AOKP and CM10.1. I reverted back to an older version to see if this fixes the problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] reslor1:
triangle away first then odin, since you need root to use triangle away. re-lock not necessary if you flash a stock image.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ryno77:
+1. Also, Odin will not up your flash counter unless your flashing something that isn't stock......Odin as the last step will leave you at out of box stock.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stanleyopar2000:
Sent back the phone. Hope for the best

It seems O2 blocked the rom writing fuction in the Bootloader.

I did use ntrw to writing the patched english rom (which someone did flash it on MDA2), or the patched chinese rom (patched by myself), the bootloader can't regonize the card. I press many many time "camera" but nothing happen. I tried a 64M MMC and a 256M Lexar SD.

I think the only possibility is O2 won't allow use reflash rom in the bootloader anymore, until XDA-Devlopers :twisted: can crack this lock.

My current O2 XDA2 seems locked everything - extended rom is read only and the rom is "read only" too~~

If I can choose, I really want a MDA2 more then a XDA2.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] palmop:
If you have a serial cable, try to dump the rom to SD first, then use the same SD without formatting, with ntrw, I believe direct write via ntrw misses some stuff that the bootloader is looking for.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] somesex:
Hi Killercheung,

I think you also come from Hong Kong ... :)

I have the exact problem as yours, extended_rom is readonly, the Bootloader won't allow me to write from SD, the Camera button does not response ...

You know I've sent my xda2 to O2 for repairing the yellowish LCD ... but before that, I am trying to use the imate gitex_update.cab extended_rom update file to change the extended_rom. I have already modified the cab using WinCE Cab Manager and it should install custom files into the extended_rom. Once I get back my xda2 I will try ...

Do you know anywhere in HK can get a serial cable for xda2 ? We need to figure it out so that we can revert the English PDA to TChinese ...

Woo ...
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] killercheung:
Hey, You always write message in 3comp.pocketPC?

I know there is one shop selling the original serial cable for XDA (XDA1 /2 use the same cable), but the price is not quite reasonable, $280!!!!

However it seems quite hard to find a cheap XDA serial cable, except DIY~ I think we better get a check XDA usb cable and DIY~

BTW, I heard that someone in this forum even use serial and terminal can't flash their rom. I believe we can do nothing until XDA-Developers can hack the bootloader~
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] somesex:
Hi guy,

I think based on the experience of ipaq, those terminal commands should work so far if we can connect to it via serial cables. I donno where I can get a cable for xda2 ... but if i can, i will definitely try ...

I also read posts saying problems in flashing rom using serial cables ... but I also read someone is not issuing the correct commands ... donno ... I need the cable ...
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] palmop:
Gomadic.com sells them for around $20. XDA and XDAII uses same cable

Get xenforo or ipb 3.

Both are great piece of scripts and recently vBulletin is increasing price/rates for everything including updates.

Xenforo would be a good choice if you can afford the money.Ibp is cheap comparing vB. You can have all the demos and reviews at forum-softwares.org .

Can someone give me a full installation guide of CM10 for acro s,I'm just a new user, thx a lot:)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Rajeev:
Simple

First of all u cant install cm10 in locked bootloader. If ur bootloader is unlocked and u have a cwm installed means go ahead

Copy the latest cm10 and the gapps to ur internel storage

Boot ur phone into cwm recovery. For this switch off ur phone and on it. At the same time press the volume up button continuesly. And u will enter to cwm

Do this..

Wipe data / factory reset

Wipe cache

Go to advanced / and clear dalvik cache

Then choose install zip from sd card

Install it

After that install gapps.

Again wipe cache and dalvik cache

Reboot ur phone. Done

I first seen this problem when i flashed synergy rom. My phone failed to activate so as a result it wouldnt make/recieve phone calls but i could text and use data normally. So i tried skipping the setup, using global apn, went to stock then came back, re-flashed many times and the result was either no service or i couldnt make/recieve calls. So i tried to Odin back to stock and unroot, then tried a different rom but still it wouldnt work. I then restored a backup i had of CS ROM but still not working. Any help would be appreciated.

Update: Okay so incase anyone runs into this problem I found a fix that works for me. What i did was bring my phone completely to stock and unroot it. Then i got a notification telling me about a software update, when i opened it a popup came telling me Im now registered. Then I rooted and flashed synergy rom, skipped the setup but then text or phone calls didnt work, so i put airplane mode on then off, and voila it working again.

Did you check your IMEI? If it's unknown or 0, there's a stickied thread on how to restore it.

Also, make sure you have the right modem for you carrier (modem thread if you're not sure). As well as having the right APNs.

I just did a backup to SD and files are missing (Pix Mp3 etc...) now the only folders are the recycle bin (advanced explorer) Backup file 20Mb and "ignore mydocs" which is 0kb. The properties still says the space is taken up with stuff on the card but i can't get at the files. Any ideas or do i have to format the card.

I know SD card erasures has been thread before but I didn't know if the XDA2 problem was new. I'm using windows default theme, no-name 256Mb SD card.

Thanks
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] ronin:
This is the first that hear about lost SD files on the XDAII. This has been bothering me a lot on XDA1 and WM2003 and there is no OS documentation on the Phone Edition of WM2003.

The interesting thing is that you do have some folders remaining in the card. Is the backup functional(Were you able to restore from it?) Most erasures completely erase the card and all the directories therein.

I did some research on the Radio Interface layer and the specific DLL's interaction with the OS. As a continuation to the following:

http://xda-developers.com/RIL/

I feel the problem lies in how the Radio Stack conflicts programatically with how SD cards are recognized by the device. So I wrote a few apps to trace how files are written to the card and when there is a new card ID generated by the device.

The erasures coincide with the new SD card ID in the OS and port/ layer. However, since the RIL and stack are built in and not documented I have not been able to isolate and resolve the problem.

How long have you had this card?

what apps do you have installed in the XDA II?

Has the erasure occurred before?
