[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] brc0703:
so start off by saying im new to android but been jailbreaking iphones for years and just not sure whats what here.. so i got an s3 t999n for metro and it get stuck at the carrier screen and just sits there.. a few times the blue light would blink green then the screen scrambled and it shutdown. i did the reset and no change.

i can get it into recovery and download modes. i installed kies and odin3.07 and 3.09 and a rom that i think was suppose to root it but odin never saw the device and when i rebooted my pc (win7) it failed to boot due to corrupt boot up file acpi.sys. i mananged to restore from a system image a few weeks old but what the heck happened? id like to not have to go thru that again so would like to do things right and not just pick a thread from random forum and go with it..

how can i tell what version is on it since it doesnt actually boot up?

i see that if its 4.3 i cant go to 4.1.2 so should i just go to 4.3?

and where can i get downloads from reliable sources for the programs needed? odin, roms ect..

just to help me make sense of things..

rom for android is the same as firmware for iphones?

iphone you install tweaks and themes through cydia. Android install custom roms with preloaded things?

hate feeling like a noob again :p thanks for any help and guidance
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
I hoghly recommend teading through the stickies here and in the xda general section.

I dont see how anything you did with the device could have affected windows that way. Something else was probably going wrong there.

Uninstall kies. It interferes with odin. You can find everything you need to get going on my signature.

Flash the latest 4.3 build. Since you just got the phone, it will already have the latest firmware. You can only flash the same or newer firmware. You can flash older roms if you like, but if you force the firmware to downgrade itll hard brick.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] brc0703:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serio22:
1) To answer your first question, stick to XDA forums, T-Mobile S3 forums not some random site you know nothing about..

2) in a way yes, but ROMs only contain the necessary components to boot and make the phone operable. It is not full firmware, they don't contain modem, bootloader etc, like firmware does. Some ROMs come with tweaks that you can select in aroma installer, others you enable tweaks through your settings, others already have tweaks enabled and you can also install tweaks from an xposed app called modules, this is kind of like cydia but for android. If a ROM is heavily modified, some modules that do tweaks may not work, or some of their settings may not work

help!!! all expert

My dopod 838 pro hangs sometimes once per day or on alternate days. Other than tat its working fine.

Will hard reset solve the prob>?? Will hard reset damage the phone? coz as everything is working well i don wan to do hard reset tat will worsten the phone function...

Anyone? help
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Rayan:
You can hard reset your device as many times as you wish, it won't damage your phone at all.

Just be aware that all your personal information and all programs installed by you will be erased.

In other words, it will be returned to factory defaults.

Regards,

Rayan
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
Welcome to the board juninho, Rayan is right hard reset will not harm your device. I would not be rushing to hard reset though. A hang can be caused by many different things, but folks on this board cannot make very targeted suggestions unless they know:

when the hangs occurs

are you running any particular application,

do you have a few today plugins running,

do you fully close apps when you are not using them,

have you taken steps to stop active sync running by itself,

what apps are installed,

what mail eg push mail options do you run?

is device connected to the PC at the time it hangs,

does the hang occur at night or when on charge

does it occur when a notification or an alarm is due

etc, etc, etc

In short I'd try pinning down the cause or else a hard reset may only temporarily fix the problem until you re-create the problem again.

Cheers

Mike

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] juninho_10:
Thanks

oh ok thanks .

My applications are as follows:

IN PHONE MEMORY:

1) Pocket plus (cant use)

4) spore map

Those cant use i just delete prog wit files left. ( I don tink i wan use registry editior)

Tot of buying spb backup - any recommanations???

hang

and forget..my phone hangs most of the tme after normal usage. The backlight went off wit the todays screen showing- then all the rest freezed
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
Well there are one or two things that concern me. It appears you uninstall by deleting files and not the add remove programmes facility. This can leave a messy load of unused files in the system/memory and it also makes the registry untidy/slow.

There are a couple of programmes that you say "can't run" but they are ones that should run. In fact sprite backup should be fine and is a good backup facility. (I use SPB however and find it excellent if you backup regularly and keep say most recent 5 backups + one done immediately after a hard reset. I then delete one of the oldest ones for every new one I create. I keep more than one because it's quite likely you backup thinking ebverything is working fine and then find later there's some application that used to work but you've saved after it went wrong - so you can see it's good to have a few backups going back maybe a couple of months.)

I think you have a choice here. Try to pin down what is causing the hang - could take a long time. Or go for a hard reset. In your case I fancy the hard reset because you have only a few things installed.

This may not cure your problem - in fact it lkely will not - but it will clean your system. This done you can then start doing some of the standard things listed on this forum to avoid hangs - I can pint you in the right direction if you need it.

Throughout this process take quite a few backups i.e after every installation you make. - boring I know but eventually you can reduce the number of backups you do.

Last alternative - just live with one hang a day. Soft reset does not take long. Could be very annoying though!! In normal use I think from experience that a hang once a week to two weeks is about normal!!

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] juninho_10:
wow

wow thanks for e good advice!! ya think i just maual delete the prog tat don work and leave the files behind(i m afraid of deleting files tat will cause the phone harewire.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
Did you take my advice and create a backup after EVERY installation you made? Indeed did you take a backup before the Hardreset?

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jasjamming:
Hi Juninho,

anyone of the apps you mentioned could be the root cause of your freeze issues.

It would be wise if you install a single app at a time and then rigourously test the stability of your device before installing another app.

I guess you might have to repeat the hard reset and start from scratch and remember take a backup after each app installation so ou can easily "roll-back" to a known current working state (this will save you future manual re-installations).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] juninho_10:
?

U mean every prog b4 installation do a backup? if i do , hw am i suppose to kw if which prog cause e hang? i mean- tat means i will have to install one prog, backup- then use it for few days to see if it hangs- then dwnload next prog- and the process continues???

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yathani:
I just wanted to share some of the information i found.

I'm currently using Micro SD from Sandisk called Sandisk Extreme. The card have speed of 60mb/s Read and 40 mb/s Write. I used an app called A1 SD bench to test the card speed on my phone.

The result I got on my Note 3 was 19-21mb/s Read and 9-14mb/s write. As you notice even though my card should have higher numbers but I think the Micro SD reader slowing it down. Now that I have the Note 4 the result is amazing. I have 59.8mb/s Read and 38mb/s write. The numbers are very close to the advertised card speed which is great.

I though I will share this information just so you know that note 4 does benefit from higher micro sd card speed.
