After Update oO Crap - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Today i flashed the update over Kies. After finishing this procedure i install superuser again and reboot.
- crappy WLAN (connect / disconnect / cant connect ....)
- Freezetime Sleep (if i lock the phone, the display needs about 5 seconds to turn off)
- Freezetime Wake up (if i unlock the phone, the display turns on, ok, but i cant do anything, i needs to 10 seconds before u can do something)
can anybody help me to get this freeztime fixed ???

So what update ????
Did you try a factory reset ...
Or flash stock rom to suite from stock rom threads .

Reflash stock rom and do a factory reset and then update again.

[Q] In a huge pickle

I accidentally factory restored my phone this morning. But that is not the pickle. At the end of the initial account setup, the phone force closes the setup. And after that I don't see anything on the screen except for the notification bar. I can work with the notification bar that is switch on/off GPS, data, etc. But rest of the screen is black. Since the screen is black, Cant access any setting and toggle USB debugging to use KDZ. Can get calls and use the settings that come up there. But I guess that's about it. I think this is happening cause the option to setup Google account don't come up during initial setup. What can I do? Any ideas other than going to the service center?
did you had a custom rom installed

[Q] Screen won't go off !!

Hi, I have a Galaxy S2 (I9100) that's on a stock rom GB 2.3.4
The kernel is KH3.
Phone works fine, but I cannot update to higher android version because KIES says my device cannot be updated with KIES.
After searching these forums I managed to root my phone (flash a rooted kernel with ODIN) and installed a custom rom.
I tried MIUI rom (JB) and also ParanoidAndroid (JB) and both have the same problem.
The screen shuts off after the 30 sec setting, but then after 1 sec it's ON again.
After 30 sec its shuts off, and after 1 sec it's ON again
If I flash a stock rom back (KH3) the everything is fine again.
Also flashed a MIUI ICS rom, which has the same problem!!
Anyone heard of this problem before, or knows what to do??
1. Did I do something wrong?
2. Is there a way to go to ICS stock rom (KIES or another way)?
Please help....
1. Flash a different kernel
2. Or go to Sammobile and download stock firmware, flash it with Odin.

Did you do full wipe before flashing a custom rom?

I did
- factory reset
- wipe cache
- wipe dalvik
Then install rom
if custom rom - screen on after 1 sec.
if stock rom - screen normal
************************** UPDATE **************************
Flashed a stock kernel from SAMMOBILE (Latest ICS 4.04 for Netherlands) with ODIN
Same problem !!! Screen turns off after time out, 1 sec then turns on again..
I found that with this firmware an app called "Screen Off And Lock" was installed.
Does that mean that Samsung knows the problem occurs in ICS (and higher).
I checked the option with the delay especially for devices tjat turn screen on again after turn off,
but still the same problem stays.
******** ANOTHER UPDATE *********
Just found out....
Everything works OKAY if I connect the phone to my PC.
It's charging then offcourse, and the USB is connected then.
That must be a clue to the solution, but I haven't found it yet.
Maybe someone else has an idea now (I really hope so)

Maybe your usb port is f*cked like mine, Does it happen only when you fully charged the phone ? becuz my device recognize it as charging(when not having a charger connected), ---> so connecting/disconnecting every time . . My screen goes on/off cuz it connects/disconnects the charger (while no charger connected.) If this is your problem u can try cleaning usb port or check this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30290884&postcount=3619

[Q] S6 Edge keeps random rebooting after OTA update MM 6.0.1 update

Hey guys,
since 2-3 weeks i'm using the 6.0.1 official version which i got via OTA update (everything original on my phone, no root, no flashing any software) for my international S6 Edge.
First i noted havy battery drain and uninstalled a few apps. A weather widge forced the heacy battery drain and my phone worked fine.
Since 4 Days i have problems with random reboots. It started with some reboots a day and now it keeps rebooting after i unlocked sim card and want to use my phone. I managed to put my phone in flight mode and i were able to make a backup of my userdata via samsung smartswitch. I initialized the phone via the software and it flashed the newest version. After it finished it booted up and in the language selection screen it keeps rebooting.
I read about corrupted files due update from version 5.x to 6.0.1 and thought to wipe the phone and flash newest software via smartswitch would fix the problem but my phone is not usable anymore.
Maybe you have any advice for me?
Thanks for your further help!

Hi borth87
As it won't get worst, I suggest to flash a clean Stock version.
From SamMobile find the latest firmware for your device model.
After, for the download, I suggest you to use:
[TOOL] SamFirm - Samsung firmware downloader & checker
Just provide Model+Region and it will find you the newer firmware available. Please, before download, check the boxes: CRC32 & Decrypt
Flash the above using the lastest Odin v3.11.1
- Open Odin
- Reboot Phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)
- Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin
- Add the firmware file downloaed to AP / PDA
- Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
- Click the start button, sit back and wait few minutes
Let us know your path.
Nice regards.

Have fun.

Hi.
I has the same problem. I tried to flash all of firmwares (always STOCK), but it's failed with ODIN all times. Samsung Smart Switch PC software say system repair succesfull (with emergency update repair), but the problem keep joke with me.
Phone don't repond without charger. With PC connection, i don't allow to run restore mode, only ODIN mode. With Wall charger adapter, i allow to run restore mode, odin mode, safe system mode, normal system, but i wiped cache, i do factory reset, i rebooted in bootloader and rebooted system as normal. When i run system in normal mode, language selection show up, and when i press next, phone reboot. When i run system in safe mode, i can select my language, and i can connect to my WiFi, but after i press NEXT at wifi list, phone reboot.
So in safe mode i able to do more one step, but system keep rebooting. Charging screen show battery at 89-90% all times, system start updating battery status from 1% to 100% (1 percent/ 1.5 sec).
Some times red-green-blue-purple rows show at Samsung logo and i got bootloop. Like when i put off my battery from my old phone.

Unable to set property ro.boottime.init.mount.cache after upgrade firmware with Odin

I'm having a strange issue after flashing latest firmware on my Tab S7 (SM-T870)...
When I try to flash an update with odin I'm using "HOME_CSC" as I want to keep the data on the device. However it results in a boot loop to recovery where I have 3 options
1. Restart the phone
2. Factory reset
3. Check logs
Restarting the phone just restarts it and boots to the same menu.
I've checked the logs and saw an error saying:
Unable to set property "ro.boottime.init.mount.cache"
I've tried wiping cache in recovery as well, but that didn't help.
Anyone here who can help me out?
Thanks!

Maybe try to reflash previous firmware version.
There is no need to run after the lastest update.

No I tried it but only factory reset does help -.-
This is why I hate Samsung for Security reasons after a f***ing Update ...
I have the same problem, but i didn't update from Odin.
Just OTA september update, and the phone randomly goes in bootloop like once in a week.
Same here. Does anyone have any news?
same here. im in a bootloop and not even factory reset helps. i can access recovery and download mode and have flashed newest firmware three times via Odin with "pass," wiped cache, name it i've done it. I'm despondent. Does
Samsung not have the equivalent of Oneplus's MSM tool? four days have i worked furiously to save my phone.
sorry to revive, but I'm having this issue as well on my z fold 4.
Factory reset helped for about a week, and back to bootloops every 3 min or so.
PASS received in Odin, had to use micro usb cable with C-adapter as c->c did not allow Odin to complete flash (stuck at ~95% on "Super").
Not sure which error in the logs apply, but the "unable to set property "ro.boottime.init.mount.cache" to "0": error code: 0xb, try count 1-3" seem to be cause for alarm.
Has anyone fixed this?
