When removing some apps, they leave behind files in your phone so it doesnt completely gets removed. I think the go locker left some files in your phone to cause this. Try going into your my files folder, and delete any go launcher and go locker folders. It might just work.

It may be a corrupt efs. I had the same problem but mine happen because of a bad radio flash. This fixed it for me. (I used fix.zip )
Good luck

I am not dev so they may be able to explain more then I.
Keystr is a android base file that in simple terms tells the phone to display the lockscreen or not and how to display it, (password, pattern) for the most part. It’s a simple file that can become corrupt or missing.
I first ran into the problem with a bad radio flash, but I have heard of it becoming corrupt just uninstalling a app. That leads me to believe it’s a issue with OS and not the app that it making the file become corrupt (missing)
Since you are not rooted there is no way for you to diagnose this correctly. About the most you could do is enter into the stock recovery on your un-rooted phone and do a factory reset. BUT in all honest I don't believe this will touch your EFS/IMEI directory. If this is indeed the problem your left with warranting your phone or rooting it to fix this problem yourself. If you’re going to root it to diagnose this problem and fix it, be glad to help you with that..
In short there is not a lot more we can do to help fix this problem without being rooted..
The launcher is not that invasive and can not touch your root folders (because your not rooted) how ever the underline android OS can, and OS files can become corrupt.

Thinking about rooting but I only have a mac, is Heimdall an option? If so, how?

You are welcome..
As far as Heimdall goes the following link is about all i could find for directions..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17828262&postcount=3
I am not even sure if it can do a full root or not. or if it will actually work on the I171.. Sounds like it may, but that is a risk you would need to decide if you want to take.
I just need to say this.. I personally would not attempt to root my $600 phone with unknown like Heimdall. Maybe someone else here has used it to root there phone and can help on this..
Heimdall sounds like it can flash the kernel alone so doing a (what i call) soft root may work.. (kernel root)
This should explain the two ways to root your phone. Refer to "b. Flash counter intact"

Hey Dude, sorry for my explanation. I reinstalled trought CWM. When I intented to restore my apps, make the mistake to interrup the process. The phone gone to Black screen. That my point. At this time I partially solve the problem. I unroot the phone, Root again and install CWM 5.0.2.3 but has not activate the options to reinstall Kernel, Rom o whatever. Everytime I intent to applly the options, the screen go to a figuro of CW and nothing more.
Thanks friend. I just make this. Please read my recent coment to know my situation.
OK. That makes more sense. But I'm not sure if you need help? The only thing I can think Titanium would cause the phone to go to a black screen is if you were restoring system apps, which you should never do. Only install "missing apps and data" with Titanium Backup.

Ok, so have you tried starting from square one? Use Odin to return to stock and then make your way to whatever you want to do from there. And just a word to the wise, if you ever stop titanium while its restoring an app, you can just kill the app and nothing will be worse for wear

Thanks soo much you all guys for the help. Sorry for my english when I intent to explain my problem. Certainly, it´s not my first problem with the phone. Last time I bricked the phone and take the action to unroot and install the stock kernel. Later Rooted and feel the same that actually do. Later, touching the buttons activated the CWM and solve the problem, but not remember which one of the is..
I will test again with your recomendations. Thanks again for your help.
Finnaly and after insist to open the phone under Download Mode, it was open and install the recent CWMR and reboot. Restart normally . For precaution, wipes, and reflash the ROM and Google apps. I will reinstall my apps manually (Sure)
Thanks again to you all for your help.
When I shutdown my phone or reboot it the boot tune, the one that happens when you first turn on the phone happens, then the Verizon 4g lte tune happens, finally right after that the boot tune happens again but this time MUCH louder and it loops while the phone is on infinitely, unless I pull down my notification bar, otherwise it'll play over all other sounds, and even while the screen is off.
Anyone have a fix, I'm unrooted, I have done nothing exotic to the phone, everything is stock and typical, help, thanks.

Edit : I have tried "Silent Boot" and "No Statup Sound" apps and they work once but the sound comes back.
^ another option all tho im sure this is not the op's problem:
-must have root
-install a root explorer app
-navigate to the system/media/audio/ui folder
-scroll down and add .bak to the end of files poweron.ogg & poweroff.ogg.

Hello all Galaxy S3 owners !
I am totally desperate about my phone. IN fact im almost crying.
My problem is simple, trivial, stupid. Yet its totally affecting my work with phone.
I can´t delete home screens in Touchwiz.
Yes thats right, when i zoom out to manage home screens, and i tap and hold to move the homescreen to the delete bar- it just freezes at the first touch with the bar and bam. Touchwiz has stopped, it will restart, and that homescreen is still there.
Pretty simple, huh? Yeah, but well the point is, i have done around 4 factory resets and that problem is still there. When im done setting up the phone, its working good. But the first time i will restart it, i cant delete any home screen again.
Please for the love of god, help me.
What firmware .What phone missing information .

Just make a backup of your apps (use titanium backup) and then restore them
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
that's interesting, because as far as I know, the ripple effect on the desktop (not the lockscreen) is not included in the stock ROM. are you sure you're not talking about the lock screen? you can enable the ripple effect by going to Settings - lock screen
Yeh I am sure. I'm sure that it was there for some time after I have updated the os. Then again I have installed a great deal of software which I think had made my wavy effect disappear?!
And can I do a backup of the apps with no root access I don't think it's a good idea to play an expert and damage the phone beyond repair. Thanks!

Aye, what do I have to do? If you just give me a link to the most current method used, please.
The phone is gt-i9300 international. Thanks!
read the basics
I realise that. But there's a lot of people who suggested all sorts of different ways doing the same thing. All in all if you flash the rom solely don't it enables root privileges in a more effective fashion..? Thanks!
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
R: [Q] No effects when clicking on a desktop icon
The most effective fashion is the most complete one, not how you do it.
If youre speaking of flashing through odin modified parts of the rom so you can gain root access..then yes thats what i did (just look it up on youtube, make sure you write galaxy s3 international (if international version) and android version of your rom).
If youre speaking of flashing a custom rom which comes with root access already unlocked, you need to have root for that.
Its easy you can find it on google or youtube. Best method for now (or perfectly working one used by the most people) is flashing some stuff through a programm for pc (or mac i think, but im not sure) called odin. Then i advise (once you have root) you boot into the phone and install from the play store rom manager. Thru this app you may install a new recovery (basically safe-partition of disc, think of it as a bios or firmware for a pc. What u need it for is to save ur ass if u f***k up your phone, or to make COMPLETE backup images of your device so that you may restore them later on. It can also be used to flash other recoveries and therefore replace itself, or flash other roms or kernels. Its a MUST HAVE for anybody with root)

Edit: You can add the browser to Multi-Window manually by going to /system/csc/feature.xml and edit the multi window settings to include com.android.browser. Listed below is how the end of mine appears, if you don't have the multi window string you can just add it before the end as I did.

Thanks, and yes you're absolutely right, sorry, I should probably have mentioned that in the OP. The reason I requested everyone rename/freeze the touchwiz browser was a precaution. If you look at the updater script it contains the following code within it:
"delete("/system/app/BrowserProviderProxy.apk");
unmount("/system");"
And if you look in the zip, you'll notice theres 3 system apps being pushed to /system/app
1. ChromeBookmarksSyncAdapter.apk
2. BrowserProviderProxy.apk.bak
3. Browser.apk
So the renaming part is already done, if anyone wants to re-enable the tw browser to use alongside of the Aosp Browser, the only steps required are either to unfreeze the tw browser or renaming the .bak back to .apk at the end of the file.

Thanks, and yes you're absolutely right, sorry, I should probably have mentioned that in the OP. The reason I requested everyone rename/freeze the touchwiz browser was a precaution. If you look at the updater script it contains the following code within it:
"delete("/system/app/BrowserProviderProxy.apk");
unmount("/system");"
And if you look in the zip, you'll notice theres 3 system apps being pushed to /system/app
1. ChromeBookmarksSyncAdapter.apk
2. BrowserProviderProxy.apk.bak
3. Browser.apk

, yeah sorry I did not notice any of that because I never actually flashed you're zip. I just was browsing through the threads and thought I would chime in because I like to use the touchwiz browser strictly for downloading because I can download to the SD card I wasn't trying to sway anybody or anything like that. just a tip

Where is the setting in the TW browser to download to SD card?
NVM....found it in Content Settings - never noticed that before, glad you mentioned it!
Thanks for this. I can't get quick controls to work, however. Is there a way to add options to customize those?

I'm not a quick control user but maybe you can help me understand what you mean when you say it doesn't work, I just tried it and it seemed to work...

Okay, I took off my my TPU case and was able to get the quick control menus to pop-up, but it's still very difficult for me to trigger. Is there a way to build in an "activation zone" pixel # setting, like the AOKP browser has? Thanks!!

As an alternate option, I believe Quick ICS Browser in the market has that feature.
