I'm kind of a noob here, my new galaxy s2 crushes a lot especially anytime I try using the music player with my headphones connected. I'll have to manually reboot by removing the battery. Read that it's very peculiar to the GT-I9100G models, but I'm yet to come across a solution. Any ideas? Pls help!

Try using a xxlb1 firmware. For me it works perfectly.

I've got the same issue here. I know that changing to a new ROM would probably fix that forever.
So until someone comes up with a better solution heres what I do:
Install PowerAmpPlayer (look for the full version)
then when playing DO NOT LOCK SCREEN, its ok if screen locks on its own but never push the lock screen button when playing.
Did that and never crashed but I'm still uncomfortable with the stupid phone!

Okay, there's only 2 solution,
First, flash some official firmwares (choosing any other country region) it may solved, for example XXLB1 firmwares.
Second, Flash a custom firmwares and kernel. (for sure it will solve)
That's it. =)

hi guys,
I got my S3 about 3 weeks ago, (a noob in android) i recently flashed the rom to an unbranded version because i hate the bloatware but one thing i noticed is that my ram is really high on the device and when scrolling through the homescreens there's sometimes a delay in response or goes to the next screen with lag. when i go to task manager my ram is always above 500mb of 779mb. Even when i clear the memory it goes down to about 400 but then comes back up.
what could be the issue. don't really have anything running in the background. i did download go keyboard and go sms pro but I'm pretty sure that is not the cause of it. it even happened when i had the branded version of the firmware installed.
any ideas?
Thanks
Go software is very laggy. But yeah I have very few running processes and have high ram usage. I don't know why. It was the same with my s2. But I'm not sure y your laggy. Mines a beast
Wipe cache?
it I do ever get laggy I just hold home button and swipe to end background running processes
Hope this helps mate.

thanks for your response mate,
Ive tried wiping cache stopping useless processes but even after that its still quite laggy and when i swipe to remove that even lags... pretty bizzare
RAM usage is supposed to be high. Please read the link in my signature. The lag must be something else. Possible drawing issue on whatever launcher you have.

The GPU may not be very good on the sIII, the GPU controls video, scrolling, animations, ect. But my guess would be that its just a badly coded ROM. Go on the forms for that ROM and see if its a common issue.

Could you perhaps be looking for fault. I mean have you come from another high quality phone. I haven't had any problems so far. I have not heard anyone with the stock Rom having problems.. obviously it's gonna have some bugs. But I haven't heard of this one mate. This is the fastest phone I've had.

Have you tried:
Setting animation speed to 0.5 from 1.0 in settings/ development?
Enabling gpu rendering?
Setting maxheapsize=128 mb (from 256 mb) in build. prop?
Clear both caches, reset permissions, reboot
Also, removing all bloatware helps

you need to be rooted, edit /system/build.prop using root explorer or es explorer (the /system file system needs to be mounted read/write first)
you have to reset permissions from cwm (clockworkmod), again this needs root

I have a similar problem with custom roms. I have only tried 3 (Paranoid Android, Resurrection Remix and Slimbean) and the all had frozen my phone at least once a day while the screen is on. So I had to pull the battery then it decreases my battery significantly. I also tried different kernels but still the same result.
I don't undervolt or overclock it So I honestly don't understand why it's doing it. I however set the governor to performance.
Any help please? It's getting rather annoying. Thanks guys.

1. Post your present ROM and kernel details
2. Post your kernel configuration
3. Next time you have SOD/freeze, there is no need to pull the battery, just hold the power button for about 10secs, your device will restart

Performance governor caused the problem, if you want performance boost with Siyah kernel then use performance profile.
1. Uninstall voltage control
2. Download Extweaks from market
3. Run Extweaks
4. Reboot to recovery
5. Select kernel specific option
6. Select performance profile for Extweaks
7. Reboot phone
Your phone should fly now without freezing

Thanks but I changed governor to smartass 2 but I still had a freeze..but I will try use the kernel tweak instead.
I have just formatted my external sdcard as I have read corrupted files may cause freeze.
I have also noticed that it does it when the phone is on charge and while on the xda app lol. But then again that is what I am mostly on when I'm on my phone: )

i believed the reason why you changed your governor to performance was because you wanted to boost performance.
Siyah default governor favors more performance, use default governor.
If you want performance, then
Boot to recovery
Kernel specific option
Reset Extweaks profile settings
Select performance profile.
Reboot phone.
Change every other thing except the governor.
Now that you are experiencing freezes, use stable configuration first

media scanner bug is very common in jelly bean roms http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2072250 this is a fix from another thread not sure if it will work with your model. DO A SEARCH and fish through the results.. I would guess that on the disaster rom thread for your model there will be loads of mentions and possible solutions have a look. The chances of you being the only one are impossible! Good luck

Hi all, I've some problems with my undervolted S3 (but same issues has my brother with his undervolted Note 2).
If I undervolt my phone (-25mV/-50mV/-75mV, ecc...all values are the same thing), lag problems appear with youtube app and also with other video, like flashplayer. Lag appears after about 10 minutes I'm watching some HD videos, and I must reboot S3 to solve the problem, infact change voltages to default values don't help.
I used apps like Voltage control or CPU tweaker, that allow to create different profiles whit different values, but when the lag appears, also if I select profile with default values the problem remains until i reboot...
How do you solve this problem? If you undervolted your phones, how you solve the lag problem? Thx for replies

OK... as far as we know, every phone has its own tolerable voltage... You said even default voltage causes lag as well, may be you should overvoltage to see if you can get it stable?
Maybe it's related with ROM?

I would suggest you try stock ROM and stock kernel first, if it's all OK with stock, then first try other kernel, if using other kernel still OK, then perhaps it could ROM problem, anyway, you have to slowly determine where or what part went wrong and cause lag
