I saw that a few people had issues with WiFi/WLAN crashing their device in this thread, which seems to happen for me now almost every time I start it with WiFi enabled. Has a solution for this ever been figured out? If this might be related to my baseband/bootloader version (the most recent I was able to find), it would be great if anybody could point me to a ROM with better versions. This does also happen if I flash only the ROM (so no google apps, SU or whatever). Any suggestion would be appreciated!

Device: GT-I9301I, Sony sensor

Baseband: I9301IXXUAPG1

Bootloader: I9301IXXUAQL1

TWRP: twrp-3.3.1-1-s3ve3g

ROM: lineage-16.0-20200112-nightly-s3ve3gxx
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
I'm sure you mean build date of 08.12.2019. I hope you have made a backup of EFS, i would try to restore EFS partition and see if bluetooth again works or again a clean flash. There are nightly - updates for LOS 16 so latest build is from today or yesterday.

This isn't right or - I9031IXXUAQL1 - As you have GT-I9301I whats your baseband / bootloader. If your bootloader is I9031IXXUAQL1 - its older than the one which is recommend!. It should be ...I9301IXCUARA1, which you can get if you flash latest stock rom from greece

I never tried encryption, so i cant do a statement to this...

What's exactly your problem? WiFi crashes? Your baseband is ok bootloader - there is a newer one...
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] phonelover1000:
i can see that your baseband version isnt the latest. The latest are these: Latest baseband: ...uapg1

latest bootloader: ...xcuara1 So you you can update these and see if every thing is ok with this ROM. ( if you update to the latest stock firmware only in the stock firmware you will have no cameras.)

[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] sh1mrr4:
Oh I see. Thanks, I'll try this out as soon as I have downloaded it. The issue was that the whole device would crash and reboot as soon as it was connected to a WiFi network, which is bothersome.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] fabian.ecker:
Thanks a lot!! This has resolved it. Flashed the greek rom, then the latest TWRP then the latest LOS16 build. No more crashes. Partition resize was still necessary for encryption but once you know how, it is easy. And I meant the build date of the Samsung firmware, sorry that was confusing.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] fabian.ecker:
Using the rom now I have noticed a minor thing, the night mode "LiveDisplay" deactivates itself when the display is switched off and back on. The setting is still on but the screen is no longer tinted after waking up the device. Anybody else can confirm this?
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
LiveDisplay was always buggy on S3Neo custom ROM. I dont know if this will ever get fixed. There are some other bugs in this ROM.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] mariocaraf:
which bugs?
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
1) Builds before 18.12.2019 did only set a dummy wifi mac-adress. So if you have two S3Neos at home you've got a problem with yout network.

2) Builds from 18.12.2019 has fixed wifi mac-adress, but it seems to have a mobile data problem after a while of using it. Which means mobile data slows down, for me its also not possible to log in to some apps... Reboot fixes it. So i am back to build of 09.12.2019 and set correct macadress manually.

3) Fully charging your phone prevents Deep Sleep fixed after reboot until you again fully charge your phone. - Instead of deep sleep phone runs on 300mhz, which is also battery economical. On older custom roms such as CM11, Cm12.1 ... its enough to put in charger to your phone to prevent deep sleep

4) No Deep Sleep, when Wifi is enabled but not Connected.- Instead of deep sleep phone runs on 300mhz, which is also battery economical

5) Phone can't charge when you have used flashlight or take a photo with flash.

6) Glonass-Satellites are not used for location-services ( since Los 14.1, also for other devices like S4,S5) - So its a (known) bug of LOS for some devices

That are the bugs i know. (Livedisplay i never used - so i cant say anything to it)
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] lxl92:
This is the best rom i seen, Thank you and keep going with this. Since i use it i find no any issues with it. Thank you
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] msst72:
i have twrp recovery on my phone

unlocking bootloader is necessary for flashing this rom?
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
1) Whats your model? GT-I9300I or GT-I9301I. Anyway you should upgrade to latest stock firmware. If you have GT-I9301I, then first flash greece stock rom, to upgrade your baseband and bootloader. Baseband should be I9301IXXUAPG1 and bootloader I9301IXCUARA1.

2) Upgrade to latest twrp (3.3.1.1). If you already have twrp, just download and flash twrp-3.3.1-1-s3ve3g.img, if you have to flash stock rom, then you again have to flash twrp via odin this file twrp-3.3.1-1-s3ve3g.img.tar

3) Download LOS16 from official website und flash it via twrp. Make sure, that you choose the right software for your model. It depends on GT-I9301I and GT-I9300I, also if you have GT-I9301I it depends wich camera-sensors (Samsung or Sony) your phone have.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] kurtn:
Bootloader is already unlocked, if you can boot into twrp. Now you can fash.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] msst72:
i have GT-I9300I firmware 4.4.4 and twrp-3.3.1-1
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
Then flash this rom via twrp.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] msst72:
i flashed this rom and everything work perfect :good:

thanks a lot
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] lxl92:
I use this rom for some days now and it work perfect no issues i found in the rom, It's awesome, But i think i have a issue with charging. My phone won't charge sometimes. But when i turn off my phone and take the battery out for a sec and put it back in it work okay. Is this a issue in the rom or is it my phone? I think it's my phone but i'm not sure. I got a simular problem like this before on the stockrom. Or do anyone else have this to?
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
Phone can't charge if you have used flashlight or take a photo with flashlight until you perform a reboot. No need to take out battery, it's enough to reboot
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] HTC82:
i confirm, same problem
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Aufhellblitz:
Hi,

I changed from my broken S3 Neo (display damage) to another used S3 Neo. But I didn't consider that the other one has a Sony chip.

How can I fix this problem without reinstalling. Is that possible? If not, please send me a current nightly link for a new installation with a Sony chip! Thank you!
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] mariocaraf:
download the correct rom, make a backup of data, with twrp, install the rom, and restore data from backup.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Aufhellblitz:
oh, so simple! That I would not have thought now. Thank you so much.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] levyeggtr:
Can someone tell me how can I install this rom and how can I get ota updates ? (I have TWRP 3.0.2.0)

(Do clean flash ? Just I don't know what it mean)

Thnx a lot

It drains my battery

It drains my battery...I don’t know if the problem is from my device or from the ROM
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] kurtn:
Or from the addons or apps you installed? Try clean install?
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
ROM is very good in point of battery draining!

Bluetooth crash on fresh install

I actually badly need help here. The first time I fresh installed lineage os (+gapps) on my I9300I, it flawlessly worked. Then I realized I need more speed and gapps ridiculously slowed down my device so I fresh install lineage os again (this time, without gapps) and it sped up my device. But after 5th(?) time of flashing, bluetooth suddenly crashed (as soon as it boots) and ridiculously bombing me the "bluetooth keeps stopping" dialog. I flashed the stock rom again (on my first attempt to fix, russian rom as prescribed in the official instructions I9300IXWUBNJ1, then trinidad&tobago rom as it came with my device I9300IUBSBQA1) then reflashed twrp and flashed lineage os. Nothing seems to fix the issue and I only encountered this on lineage os 16 after the 5th(?) flash. Because in lineage os 17.1, it works. I want to flash it again *since I prefer using an official lineage os* but sadly, bluetooth crashes then. Can someone help me??
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
Try flashing this Stock Rom and take care that your baseband / bootloader has updated. Then Flash TWRP 3.3.1-1 and LOS16.

Download here or here.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] KingRangerXX:
Sadly, same error persists.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
Is your Baseband / Bootloader updatet after last flash?

Whats your baseband/Bootloader?
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] msst72:
I have this problem (#2) with mobile data on build 20200119.

Upgrading to a new build can fix this problem or i have to back on older build?

(my phone is GT-I9300I)
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
It seems the problem is located, i have tested a edited boot.img, which has working wifi-Mac adress and no mobile data bug. I think it will last about 2-3 days until its fixed on official builds
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] msst72:
Thanks for informing :good:

I wait for official build
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] andriodking:
After installing GApps, device slow downs even playstore takes a long time to download an app, also chrome take time to load a page, whole device netspeed slows down, Plz fix this :crying:
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
Which Gapps are you using.

I have pico and no speed problems. Is speed slow in mobile data and / or also wifi?
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] andriodking:
I m using pico with mobile data
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
Do a reboot and try again. If this fixes your problem its the "mobile data bug" which should be fixed in 2-3 days.

Before you reboot try to go to "settings / system / advanced / updater " and try to refresh list. If that fails (wifi must be off), then its the "mobile data bug". after reboot it should work for a while
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] andriodking:
Yeah after an reboot it speedups but after some time it again slows down
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
Yes this should be fixed in 2-3 days. Or you can go back to a build before 18.12 ( if you have a backup)
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] andriodking:
No links for that build :(
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
Yes. Older builds are no more available on official servers. There are solutions, but you have to make some adjustments yourself, I recommend to wait the 2-3 days.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
At the moment a dev uploads a new boot.img. you can try that. it should work
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] andriodking:
Ok i will wait :svetius:

---------- Post added at 08:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:02 PM ----------

It will fix?
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
I guess yes. If it fixes it it will be merged to official build. I am testing now
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] andriodking:
Thnx, i am trying
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] andriodking:
I have tested it its working very good. Thnx dude ?
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] KingRangerXX:
Yes baseband/bootloader already updated.

[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] ALEXIS_0071:
I have a samsung i9300i dual sim, will this rom work for me? Which file should I download?
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] msst72:
I have same model and this rom work fine on my device (except mobile data).

If you have latest stock firmware and twrp (version 3.3.1.1) you can flash this one
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
OK, this is good!

Did you a clean flash, meaning wiping everything except "sd-card" and "usb-otg". And Do not install twrp as system app!
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] KingRangerXX:
Already did. Actually I did almost everything that might solve the issue but nothing seems to work.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
If you flash stock rom and boot up, Bluetooth works?

And Los 17 also Bluetooth works?
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] KingRangerXX:
Yes. So basically:

Flash stock rom (any samsung stock roms possible) = bluetooth works

Flash LOS 17.1 (UNOFFICIAL) = bluetooth works

Flash LOS 16 (OFFICIAL) = bluetooth does not turn on and crashes repeatedly
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
Hmmm weird. I only can recommend to do a clean flash again or go to settings/system/advanced/reset and try to reset network settings.

---------- Post added at 09:34 ---------- Previous post was at 09:26 ----------

Another idea is to flash Los 17 and boot up. If Bluetooth is working. Go to twrp make a backup of efs partition. Then again a clean flash Los 16 and booting up. If Bluetooth is still crashing go to twrp and restore efs partition. Maybe that helps. BUT REMEMBER. "Playing" with EFS can brick your Phone, so do it only if there is no other way and on your own risk!
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] mariocaraf:
I sent 5 videos, 50 MB, with bluetooth, without problems, and I installed the boot.img, for the data connection, it seems working fine.

i am testing...
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
Yes, also my test is positiv till now. I think it will go official...
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] mariocaraf:
I hope so, if not, with every update, I have to flash the boot.img and magisk!
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
Yes. But i am sure if the test is positiv, the devs will merge it to official. Here you can see, if its merged.

Now devs says, he will push it this afternoon / evening. Then it will be on official on tomorow or a day later...
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] ALEXIS_0071:
where I can find the latest firmware of stock and twrp (version 3.3.1.1), how serious is mobile data, what happens is that I am new to this device and I have never installed a custom rom
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
TWRP

Latest Firmware for GT-I9300I or here

LOS16

Mobile data is slowing down after a while, reboot fixes it, in 2 days on offcial build this bug will be fixed!
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] ALEXIS_0071:
Thanks for all the support, once you install the twrp do I proceed to install los16? It is not necessary to install the latest firmware first?

Or is it necessary to install the latest firmware after twrp and pre-install Los16?
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] mariocaraf:
if you have the latest firmware, install twrp then lineage, if you don't have the latest firmware, download it, install it with odin, after the first boot install twrp and then lineage,and opengapps,pico or nano.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] KingRangerXX:
"Playing with EFS" actually did worked but it took me a lot of time to figure out to solve this. Resetting EFS helped though. Thanks for the tip.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
How did you repaired efs? The way I descriped or did you it another way?
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] KingRangerXX:
Basically on a different way, but here are the several things I did before it got fixed

Backed up efs from LOS 17

Clean flash LOS 16

Restored efs

*didn't work*

Clean flash latest stock rom (efs cleared, nand erase, repartition) which got my imei cleared (wifi and bt worked but cellular reception doesn't)

Flashed twrp and supersu

Restored efs once again

Used z3x SamsungToolPRO to reset efs

Clean flash LOS 16 once again (hoping for it to work)

*voila, after a long journey, it worked*

It's kinda messed up but atleast it did worked now.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
Ok thanks for giving feedback
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] andriodking:
I want to ask something hw i clear Cached data, in storage it is not showing :eek:
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] kurtn:
Un twrp you can wipe cach partition. In settings - apps you can delete for individual apps.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] andriodking:
Any App suggestion, to do that Job
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
No need for an app. Just go to settings/apps, choose the app you want to clear data and clear it.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] andriodking:
Is substratum is working in the rom.? I turn on dark theme from settings but notifications are still white
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
I never have tried substratum on LOS16. I add a more advanced trebuchet launcher, With this you can set up icon packs and full dark mode. But notifications are stille white...
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] andriodking:
Thnx i m installing this one
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] msst72:
Which wipe i should do for upgrade to latest build? after upgrading should i flash gapps again?

I didn't root the rom When i flashed first time, can i flash "addonsu" within upgrading?
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] mariocaraf:
Is substratum is working in the rom.? I turn on dark theme from settings but notifications are still white[/QUOTE]

I use swift installer, not substratum, it's perfect, but it's paid

https://imgur.com/a/gAX0Ktd
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
If you are on LOS16 official, there is no need to wipe, just do a dirty flash. Otherwise do a clean flash, means wiping everthing except "sd-card" and "usb-otg". After flashing LOS you can flash openGapps (ARM, 9.0 and Pico / Nano) and Magisk / AddonSU (16.0 for ARM)
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] kurtn:
You can flash addonsu at any time. When flashing rom update without wiping, addons like su or GApps get restored. No need to flash them again.

Followed the build instruction from LOS website on Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.10 and the build completed but the package size is different. Build from source is 436 vs 458 from LOS Website official build.

My build does not boot (screen stays at Samsung logo), build from LOS website (official) boots and works.

Any ideas?

Below is the log from the build:

Hi

LOS 16

Suddenly I can't update anymore without getting a red alert text in TWRP_3.3.1.1, which just flashes up, unreadable.

This happens when updating externaly( copying the update via PC) as well as internaly (updater).

After that and a reboot it and runs OK again.

Have I crashed the system somehow or is there any solution ?

Thanks in advance

P.S.

I have to mention that I restored an LOS 16 Image back from LOS 17.1 ( with a wipe ), which worked well previously though.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
So your phone is booting correct but you cant update anymore or does update after reboot work?
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] meilenstein13:
Hi

It's booting correct, but no, it still refuses to update, no matter which update and procedure I use....
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
Maybe your "storage" is damaged.

Can you post the error-message in TWRP or why cant you read it?

In your place i would make a backup of LOS16 and Try a clean flash. But remember that this maybe isnt a good idea if your storage is damaged, because maybe you cant install a rom anymore... And i also dont know if you then can restore youre backup...
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] meilenstein13:
Thanks for your efforts so far.

But, it's weird, I just tried again to update, again with error(Updater process ended with error 7.)

But this time I got the 'Wipe dalvic' option ( without no update done at all..), what I did , and tried again to update.

This time it worked....

What shall I say....
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Humaxxx:
OK, error 7 often occurs, when twrp is not uptodate or twrp "thinks" the rom you try to flash is not for your phone model?!

But you wrote you have latest twrp, maybe flashing twrp can help you, if again its not working!
