[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exofex:
Hi

Just before I went to bed I tried muting my sound, but the screen was stuck on the lock screen, so I held the power button untill my phone restarted.

Then it got stuck on the samsung galaxy s3 screen (not the samsung logo) and wouldn't go further (like the 7th time I did get to the samsung logo, but that was the first and last time, and it didnt go further).

When I tried charging my battery, the battery icon popped up but it stayed grey with the grey circle in the middle. I wasn't able to get to safe mode at that point, because nothing would happen. I did get into recovery mode once,

but after rebooting, I couldn't anymore. I am able to enter download mode, though. But when I saw no point in that, I held the power button once again to shut my phone off, and some strange grey stripes appeared all over my screen :(. I added the picture of the weird stripes below.

In download mode, the info in the left top corner says: Product name: GT-I9300 - Custom binary download: No - Current Binary: Samsung official - System status: Custom

I don't think its SDS because I can still see the product name. I am not an expert in this stuff but when I used odin, I got this result :

<ID:0/003> Added!!

<ID:0/003> Odin v.3 engine (ID:3)..

<ID:0/003> File analysis..

<ID:0/003> SetupConnection..

<ID:0/003> Initialzation..

<ID:0/003> Set PIT file..

<ID:0/003> DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!

<ID:0/003>

<ID:0/003> Re-Partition operation failed.

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

So to be clear: when I charge my phone when It's off, I get the weird stripes, when I boot it, I get the weird stripes, when I try to enter recovery mode or safe mode I get grey stripes.

The only thing that doesn't get me grey stripes is download mode...

I am really desperate right now and I even used a custom pid for my GT I9300 but to no effect...

I obviously have no warranty anymore and don't want to pay alot of money to fix my phone...

I am concerned about my data though, I recently added some very important files to my phone, but I did not back them up since I didn't see this coming.

You should also know that my internal storage was almost full (like 98-99%) and I was planning on transferring my photos today ( I really hope that wasn't the cause of the problems...).

I hope someone can help me or at least point out what is malfunctioning and tell me if I will lose my data.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I have installed the latest version of cyanogenmod 12 which was released yesterday (31/3/2015), but the wifi isn't working, couldn't know the reason. Can you please help?? Also I want to know if I have to install thunderzap??? If yes, why is it needed ??? Kindly respond at the earliest, cos as you know wifi is a vital source for internet connections.
[Sony Xperia L] SdtBarbarossa:
THIS is cm12.1 thread not cm12 ....if wifi doesnt work and you have flashed thunderzap via fastboot then please flash thunderzap via recovery (zip)

I have installed cyanogenmod 12.1 beta 1. it's working great for me. But in the call hold feature is missing also call mute option not working.

Also after installing thunderzap kernel 4.15 wifi isn't working. Pls help to fix these.
[Sony Xperia L] SdtBarbarossa:
did you flash tz via fastboot? if so just flash zip via recovery

should you repair it?
[Sony Xperia L] KingShahJahan:
It has been quite some time (almost a month) since an update has been released. Almost all the other ROMs have been updated to 5.1.1

Is Varun alright? He hasn't released or updated anything in quite some time now.

The current CM12.1 BSODs almost 4-6 time every day with and without TZ 4.15

Any updated will be appreciated.

Thanks Varun.
[Sony Xperia L] SdtBarbarossa:
bro TZ controll app update + TZ 4.16 to be coming soon..... TZ4.16 will be compatible with cm12 and cm12.1
[Sony Xperia L] KingShahJahan:
Hopefully that will fix the BSODs. Also, any word on 5.1.1 update? Almost all the other ROMs have incorporated that update to their ROMs, waiting for Varun to update it too.
[Sony Xperia L] Saif Ansari:
Anyone on beta 3 yet? Is Tz15 recommended with it?

Let us know the performance..
[Sony Xperia L] SdtBarbarossa:
no because bsod was a kernel related error..... use stock kernel until tz4.16 is out

I don't know is a problem of your rum, or the developer xposed. But at activation of modules, I receive bootloop. On 5.0 such isn't present.
[Sony Xperia L] SdtBarbarossa:
bro its a xposed bug.... xposed for 5.1 = superalpha ..... when will you people get the meaning of that?
[Sony Xperia L] Oscarm99:
Is this thread for the last beta too?

If it is, does the last beta have low incall volume fixed? Because I've made some calls today and volume was very low compared to cm12 nightlyes(with the fix done)

Thx
[Sony Xperia L] Joel16:
[MENTION=4309448]varun.chitre15[/MENTION] like you asked, it's definitely time for nightlies. I remember writing a short review on CM12 before it got nightlies. I thought CM12 was great, but hey!, this is without any doubt greater.

On CM 12.0 after a while of use, apps like messenger occasionally starts to lagg, but here it opens almost instantly without any problems. Battery backup's pretty good as well. There's only a few problems apparently like some of the users reported. Like the NFC, which I don't use so its pretty fine in my case. And the video recording lagg, but there's always room for improvements in nightly updates right? So yeah, these are minor issues that don't really bother me. Infact I can use a video camera app, and turn down the exposure to get rid of the laggs.

Been running for almost 2 days now, and I must say I've been more satisfied than I was with CM12. Haven't faced any problems apart from the two addressed above. Thanks for all your contributions for this device.

yep. but now i'll try to install TZ4.16 to see if this will fix the problem

it's getting worse, i got a bootloop after flashing 4.16, and then i did a clean reflash beta3+tz4.16 and the wifi isnt working :(
[Sony Xperia L] momentum44:
Hi All, I was in cm12 nightlies and did clean install for cm 12.1 and flashed latest tz 4.16 but my wifi is not working, even though i switch on wifi , it does not ! does any one have found quick solution to this ?
[Sony Xperia L] Stronger1101:
After testing beta 3 for a couple of hours, I decide regressar to CM12.

Initially the performance is more than decent, but after a while the device is slow, some lags, sleep device, overheating, and excessive consumption of RAM .

It is on track but still needed so much work to make daily use of the ROM

[MENTION=4309448]varun.chitre15[/MENTION] Thank you for your excellent work.

f2fs support

is f2fs filesystem for data and cache supported by default or we need to format /data and /cache with f2fs filesystem.. hoping for a qiuck reply
[Sony Xperia L] SdtBarbarossa:
you need to format it via Philz or twrp....

(for Philz= only the build i uploaded 10mins ago will be able to do)
[Sony Xperia L] HMZGUPUR:
I use f2fp only in /cache. If I change all partitions (/system /data ...) to f2fp, Can I see any benefits of it ? Because I dont want to reflash every thing again :(
[Sony Xperia L] SdtBarbarossa:
if you format /system to f2fs.... you can see that you have softbrick ;)

ONLY /data and /cache are supported....
[Sony Xperia L] HMZGUPUR:
Thank you, good to know :D
[Sony Xperia L] Oscarm99:
Can you confirm that WiFi bug appears after flashing tz 4.16?

If no, which recovery did you use to flash the kernel?
[Sony Xperia L] cascabel:
No wifi bug. Used twrp for flashing tz 4.16. Not the latest twrp though. I'm still on the one before the latest.

Cm 12.1

Hello Lads,

Does anyone have any idea when the stable version of cm 12.1 is going to be released?

Has the stuck-in-bootloop whenever you reboot ur device on cm 12.1 problem been fixed?

anD COULD SOMEONE INTEGRATE philz recovery into cm12.1?

Thank You!
[Sony Xperia L] KingShahJahan:
Just on the previous page SdtBarbarossa replied to a similar query with, "bsod fixed.... stablest LP rom i saw..."
[Sony Xperia L] HMZGUPUR:
I am on CM12.1 Beta 3, everything working good and smooth. I faced only two little problem:

-Email app do not show some of my mails, It waiting on loading screen but there is no content .

-Vibration problems on navigation buttoms

I follow these to flash CM12.1 Beta 3

1-Download and install [MENTION=6248658]SdtBarbarossa[/MENTION] 's one click app (Thank you again for this) http://xdaforums.com/xperia-l/themes-apps/beta-fota-cwm-one-klick-t3068084/post59778797#post59778797

2-Select FLASH FOTA PhilZ CWM, then phone restart on recovery mode automatically

3-OPTIONAL : you can change your file system for /cache and /data to f2fp (I also did that)

4- Install zip --- cm12.1, gapps, SuperSU and finaly TZ 4.16

5- In first boot, my wifi didnt start (I dont know why), then again I restart on recovery mode and again I installed only TZ 4.16 zip. Then my phone opened without any problem.
[Sony Xperia L] SdtBarbarossa:
bro the link you give is for the wrong app ;)
[Sony Xperia L] HMZGUPUR:
:D sorry I corrected it
[Sony Xperia L] EternalXDA:
Sorry guys, I guess I'm a little late to the party. is changing the filesystem of /data and /cache to f2fs beneficial ?

how we do it?

is it doable with cm12 and tz 4.16 ?

thanks.
[Sony Xperia L] SdtBarbarossa:
1. changing it will give you more speed.... its not "whole performance" its just read/write performance..... its like using a better hdd in your PC ....

2. cm12 is atm not compatible.... but to fix this is verry easy.... you just need to change fstab.qcom and BoardConfig.mk before building.... for this just pick the last commits from varun for cm12.1

3. the easyest way to do it is to pick up my app....

if you are familiar with twrp you can use twrp to do it

if you like philz more then you can do it with philz also.. for this you will need my last philz build ( in my app v1.0.0.3 included)

at the end a little warning...if you format /data and /cache to f2fs all old builds or Philz are unable to mount it....so if you want to use this filesystem use twrp v2.8.6.0 or Philz v6.59.0 with f2fs support
[Sony Xperia L] KingShahJahan:
This got my attention and got me interested. So how does one do this? Is there a guide to using your app and formatting to F2FS anywhere which I can use to do it?

Also, what is the workflow? Like earlier I used to flash to stock > Flash TZ > Flash CM > Flash TZ again. Now how should be my workflow?

I'm NOT good in coding, never done it. Even unlocking my bootloader using Sony's site was fairly difficult for me! I can really use some guide or better a youtube video ALONG with the guide! Is there one?

OK, I'm now willing to give your app a shot. Kindly guide me though!

i

What do you recommend, TWRP or Philz? Are there any benefits and limitations to each?

I don't understand this. Should I be concerned about this?!

Thanks again for your help! I appreciate it.

EDIT: I just remembered, will this cause me any stability issues and/or battery impact?! Like Overclocking also increases performance, but can cause stability issues and battery drain. It can even fry the chip! So does this increase in performance via F2FS come free or are there any caveats?!
[Sony Xperia L] SdtBarbarossa:
ok thats much!

1. f2fs on /chache and /data does perform very well and you have no issues to be aware

BUT to be clear if you change the system of this partitions they will be erased.....like clean installing...

2. for a unknown reason my Philz build is able to flash TZ4.16 on cm12.1 BUT NOT on cm12 ..... so you have to stay with Philz if you want to use f2fs on cm12

3. if you want to test my app then its easy..... install it like a normal app.... grand root permissions if it asks..... and choose your recovery

4. the correct way atm (for really clean install) stockrom->TZ->cm12.1->my app->tz4.16

but if you want to stay on cm12 instead of cm12.1 ..... and you want to use f2fs on cm12..... then just wait for 1hour or 2 ....maybe i can do something

---------- Post added at 03:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:13 PM ----------

sorry cant do anything

...the rom have to be builded with correct flag in boardconfig....
[Sony Xperia L] KingShahJahan:
I ALWAYS do a clean install anyways, so that won't be a problem.

I'll be on CM12.1, so I guess I'll use Philz.

I'll enable developer, grant root and then I'll use Philz. Then what will happen?! Will it boot and ask me to format to F2FS or ask me to provide the zip for TZ 4.16?

So doing all this will automatically format it to F2FS?

I'll now NEVER go back to CM12, I'll be on CM12.1 or later.

Was this directed towards me?! Is this about the coding thing I told you about?! Will I have to do some coding?!

Thanks again for your help. I appreciate it.
[Sony Xperia L] SdtBarbarossa:
no it was about f2fs on cm12.... nevermind since you will go for cm12.1 ....

my app will do NOTHING on the recovery.... it only installs the recovery....thats all....

after you havae done the whole process to go to TZ4.16 ....you can boot on philz.... wipe and format options .... custom format options.... toggle f2fs < - > ext4 (only available in my last build) and then klick format /cache and format /data
[Sony Xperia L] Stronger1101:
Hi

I understand wrong? Or you say I can add f2fs support changing CM12 fstab?

Tanks

Send from my C2104 using XDA Premium HD app
[Sony Xperia L] gogofoxx:
can someone tell me how to flash tz 4.16 ?
[Sony Xperia L] SdtBarbarossa:
only change fstab doesnt work....you have to build from source with changed fstab and changed boradconfig

---------- Post added at 08:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:29 AM ----------

on cm12.1 you can use twrp v2.8.6.0 or Philz v6.59.0 ... on cm12 twrp only
[Sony Xperia L] KingShahJahan:
OK. I finally installed everything.

My workflow was Flash to Stock > TZ > CM 12.1 > TZ > Philz > F2FS

After I flashed stock using flashtool, I tried using flashtool to flash TZ. HOWEVER, now TZ does NOT include the .img file which is used by flashtool. I tried searching all the folders/subfolders and it did NOT have any file with the extension of SIN, IMG or ELF. Thus now it WONT be possible to flash TZ using flashtool anymore!

So I used SdtBarbarossa's app granted it root and installed Philz and it immediately booted to recovery. Unfortunately I had the older version of that app and hence it DIDN'T have any option to format to F2FS. So I thought maybe it automatically formats to F2FS and thus formated cache and data and then flashed TZ. After that I installed the new version of SdtBarbarossa's app and after installing Philz again it allowed me to format cache and data to F2FS.

So my workflow was all messed up; Flash to Stock > TZ > CM 12.1 > TZ > Philz > F2FS! But I hope it should run fine?! Until now everything is smooth.

Thanks again everyone for your help and specially thanks to SdtBarbarossa for his app and his personal responses to my queries!

Very sad with the camera app

I'm still wondering when in the gods time is this dear friend going to fix the BIG problem with the camera. I bought this phone FOR the camera! For the quality of his lens. Now that I'm addicted to Lollipop i've sacrified my photos, I want my beautiful pictures back varun.chitre15, please someone tell him that I admire his work, but I'm getting frustrated, trying for him to hear me, and fix the camera app. I can't use HDR, I can't take the good pictures I've been taken 'till beta 6 when he decided to erase that rich app and put the one is now that don't work, is so poor, I can't believe it. Every day is a change of minusculas thing, and the camera still the same. May I ask you, you guys don't take pictures? I'm begging, please improve the camera app, please. If I could pay you, I would, so you can keep working on this beautiful phone, but I can't. I only can ask you as a favor, PLEASE varun.chitre15, IMPROVE THE CAMERA APP. I'm thinking about doing a social media campaing so you can hear me. Improve camera app, is all that I'm asking for.
[Sony Xperia L] KingShahJahan:
Why don't you just use a camera app from the play store?!

I personally like Camera FV-5. It does NOT have in-app HDR, but it can take bracketed photos and I can create an HDR from that. I like bracketed pics from which I can make HDR better than the in-camera or in-app HDR shots. I also have a LOT of option to take pics and it's quality is better than most, if not all, other apps.

You can check it out here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flavionet.android.camera.pro

how i can do that if there isnot boot.img file , when i tried it gave me error
[Sony Xperia L] SdtBarbarossa:
what do you mean? can you be more specific please?
[Sony Xperia L] KingShahJahan:
If you have read just a few post above, then I have already mentioned, there is NO longer a .img or any other file that can be flashed via flashtool anymore. You will have to use SdtBarbarossa's app, install the apk, grant it root, install philz and it will reboot to recovery, from there you will have to flash the .zip file
