Anyone's phone not remembering settings? - Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)

I haven't seen this but feel free to blast me if I missed it here somewhere but I have a small issue with the phone. In my call logs I set it to view by "all calls", and but as soon as I leave and come back it has reverted back to "all logs". Nothing I do will keep it save as such. I appreciate any help and sorry if I missed anything in another thread.

i am facing the same issue, and its driving me nuts! i am on AT&T GS3...

It was like this on sgs1 and 2 as well. Will have to wait until custom roms come out that remove sms from call logs I believe. When you sort by call logs its only sorting by that for the moment but no permanently unfortunately :-(

On the screen itself it looks perfectly fine it does not look like there is anything wrong with it at all just cannot touch in that specific line down the screen it jumped either to the right or to the left of it

It sounds like a digitizer problem. There are a few guide on the internet on how to fix one or if your phone is under warranty still you can say your screen is messed up and get it fixed through that.

Thanks but still the problem the only way.i cant make a call is by wifi call, what could e be?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA
After I flashed a ROM, I was letting my phone cook, and it started clicking. It would randomly, and slightly often, click for about a day. I'm not sure what it was, I'm thinking the CPU throttling.
I think it might be related to the radio. Check for a firmware update. I was reading several threds and clicking and static during call was radio related.

Can't receive texts but can send them...

I'm running CM9 final and haven't had any issues lately. Today I received texts up to a certain point from some Ppl and some I didn't when they texted me. I can send out but get nothing back. Phone calls work fine and so does my data... Any ideas? Please help!
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda app-developers app
Well it's a pretty stable build. Which they wouldn't have released if SMS didn't work. Which means its user error. Either it's a setting u changed. , an app u have running, or u didn't full wipe before installing. Best guesses at least. Good luck , happy flashing

I posted in CM9 only cuz that's the run I'm on, but thought I should post in question and answers instead. I will remember that next time. I've been on CM9 for quite a few days now and exec today I have been getting texts then all of a sudden nothing... I haven't changed anything, I was working most if the day.

You might try clearing data for messaging app on manage apps.
I tried that, too no avail.

I had good luck following this guide for setting up APN on I777 on CM9 , it is for ATT. It is from Infuse forums but it works anways. If it doesn't there is an option to reset to default.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1791526
*update* I ended up calling Att and tech support. After some trouble shooting he had me put my Simon into another phone to "wake it up, or un freeze" it then put back in my phone. I then got 18 texts when phone turned on. He said sometimes the Sim card gets confused from switch between towers and locks up. So really was an easy fix. Hope this helps anyone else. Thanks for suggestions!

That's the first time I ever heard of this happening. Weird.

Def a weird thing. But I thought it was something with the phone or especially being on a ROM. But just a confused Sim card turns out. Lol

Problem answering incoming calls

I have noticed an issue with incoming calls. If the phone is locked (not password or pattern locked, mind you, just locked via the power button) I cannot answer incoming calls. It will allow me to slide the green phone icon as if I can answer, but then it immediately hands up and alerts me that I have a missed call. The problem does not seem to happen when the phone isn't locked, but how often does the phone ring when you have it out, looking at it?
FWIW, I am running SnowJBv1.1 no other tweaks have been done.
Any ideas?

Also on snowjb 1.1 with no additional tweaks... 8 incoming phone calls over the 3 days I've now been on this ROM, all came in with phone idle/locked, not using any security (pin/pattern/face) and all were answerable just fine...

This may be a crazy idea, but what lock screen effect are you using? I was using dew drop, and I may have isolated the problem to this effect. When I use "none" as the effect, the problem seems better...

well, after a few days of trouble shooting...i have no idea. i cannot answer the phone when an incoming call wakes it up from lock. if i happen to be using it and it is unlocked, then i can asnwer. this is regardless of what type of lockscreen i use. dewdrop, pattern, slide...
i even tried reflashing to see if that might be the culprit. no dice.
anyone see anything like this or have any other ideas?

I am having same problem answering phone. But I'm not a tech wizard, and don't even understand the full conversation thread. But yes, it is hard to answer an icoming call. And other forums seem to have identified same problem.

[Q] SOLVED Switching between calls ?

I feel kind of stupid but I used to have a swap button and now I seem to only have a record button and can't switch when I take a second call. Am I missing something, this seems to be the case in the regular dialer and in rocketdial

I'm going to help get this back to the top cause I have the same problem. Not sure when the swap button went away but I'm sure it was there at one point. I can not find anywhere in the settings that would change this. Only things I have done is root via chain fire method, install twrp, flashed freeza's crt animation mod for the native wifi tether and his beastmode kernel. Have you done any of this? I would love my swap button back but instead I have to hang up with both callers then call back whoever it is I want to continue talking to and it is really getting irritating. Anyone have any ideas or the same issue?
Sent from my SM-N900P using xda app-developers app
Thank you. I don't feel so alone and dumb now. I rooted using the other knox safe method dela root and odined the same file in that post although my baseband and software say mi3 and the build says mi5. With calls that is the exact problem I have. I can now record a conversation when its on speaker phone but dont need that. Only other thing I downloaded was rocketdial for a while I thought that was it but uninstalled and have the same problem
Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk
I am finding it hard to believe out of 200 views we are the only ones with this problem. I let my phone update to mj4 before I rooted it. Have you installed the crt animations or a new kernel? We seem so far apart in what we have done to be able to make sense of this.

Hope the bump helps. I don't have the issue you described, but I am with Sprint on MJ4 - what root did you use?
Dela vega. Lets try this does everyone else have a swap button in the top left position or does it say record. Or do you have a record button that switches to swap when you answer a second call
And nothimg else installed for me

And I used chain fire to root. It appears we have both gone completely different routes yet still have the same problem.

Didn't even think of that but might be the one thing we have in common. Let me know what you find. I won't have time to mess with the phone till later tonight.

Its hard to tell because I reset with De la vegas again. But the first thing noticed n Wanum was the record button checked and unchecked it calls work fine now.
Finally got to mess with the phone and wanam was definition the culprit. I can now swap between calls again. The issue I still have and not sure what happens on the stock rom, when I want to hang up with one person I tap end them it doesn't switch me back to the person on hold. Instead it acts as if someone is calling me and then have to answer the phone where that person had been on hold the whole time. Hope this makes sense.

Did you just disable the module this is frustrating I never noticed until today when I tried switching back to the first call I had on hold
It's under the phone tab. Uncheck add record button or something like that. Should work. I have since installed a rom so not 100%. Let me know if it doesn't work and I will reinstall it to see if I can find it.
Sent from my SM-N900P using xda app-developers app
I wish we could have both. I want call recording but also want swap. I use swap so little however that I live without it.
what I want is behind the scenes fully transparent over any connection bluetooth or speaker call recording in the background fully automatic.
I had this on my Touch Pro 2 (windows mobile) and its one feature I really really miss. it just "always" worked.
