ChatOn - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is anyone else experiencing problems with ChatOn? Was working fine but now refuses to load.
Basically, after entering 4 digit code and pressing the tick it throws me back to my home screen with no errors. I have tried un installing any updates but still no joy, was working ok a week or so ago. Done a system reset but still no joy!

Any idea as to how? I'm not rooted and when I uninstall the updates it will only allow me to disable the app

when trying to root

All was going well until Norton decided revolutionary was a virus and removed it while it was running! Retrying revolutionary I kept getting error messages saying device was not supported. I then reset the phone to the original sprint stock image. Now I'm able to run revolutionary but I keep getting an error that reads "Communications with phone unexpectedly interrupted" I tried reinstalling the drivers and I made sure nothing was on auto sync and even tried different usb ports and cables. I still am getting that error. Please help!
did you download revolutionary again?

Disable your AV completely while you do this process, or just uninstall Norton. Then redownload Revolutionary and put it on a new folder on your desktop. Should be good after that.

"Process android.process.media has stopped" after JB update

Hey guys, I can't even use my phone after the official update of the Jelly Bean (via Kies). After booting, the phone freeze almost completely and pop-up this message. Any fix without reseting ? I tried cleaning the cache but the problem isn't fixed
If anybody had this issue, can give me an idea about how to fix it ? Thanks
Try clearing its data in app manager
Nop, can't find it. I tried cleaning most of data but nothing works :/ Damn...is Samsung able to do something without bugs ?
that's why no one uses kies
Factory reset or download an Odin version and flash with Odin

Yeah, I like to root, but not to change the rom Now I need to root again. At least the issues has been solved.
Fixing permissions usually solves that problem barring that a full wipe and start again.

As I got the official update, I lost the root, I tried to clear the cache and as I've seen that is not working and the phone was freezing each 5 seconds I got a bit scared to start rooting it. I wiped it, installed my apps and now everything is ok. However, it's weird that I didn't got the apps automatically installed like it's happened last time when Amazon replaced my S3 for some screen issues (some scratches inside the screen). I just added my google account and everything started installing automatically. Not this time...
just downloaded jelly bean tonight and having this issue. has anyone come up with a solution that does not involve a full hardware restart???
Had same problem after I updated 3 months ago. I think was an incompatibility with an app or something has not updated completely. Fixed it with factory reset.
You can backup apps with Samsung Kies I think if you don't want to lose progress in games, the other stuff is automatically synced

I'm afraid it'll probably have to be a full reset just make sure you've backed up.

Did you unlock the bootloader?
No I didn't unlock the bootloader yet. From the guide I thought it said I had to root before I unlock the bootloader? Unless I read that wrong.

I had a similar issue as well. I uninstalled the drivers and then reinstalled them and it solved the problem. Try doing that and see if it was the problem.
what kind of software are you using? e97011cc?
I uninstalled the drivers and it still didn't work. And yes I'm on e97011c

You will need to downgrade with lgnpst to root. It is in topic at top of page on irc.
http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=lg-optimus-g
Yeah you will my bad also I don't know what i was thinking lol but I ran into that same problem and I restored back to like the day I got it and then rooted it and it worked just fine lol Some time's its just like that
Hop into the IRC to get the link to LGNPST so that you can downgrade. I think theres links in the other threads like the conversion, to get the link to the stock firmware. LGNPST is not hard to use, just make sure you have all the correct drivers installed and its quick and painless
I tried to rooting. But phone did not reboot, but it loses cell net.
I reboot it manually and phone now turns on screen for a half second and turns off. And I can not use it (unlock screen is not working).
I can run it in download mode. So what can I do? Download stock ROM and flash it? BTW, what app I need to flash stock ROM?

My friend did thus to his G as well. Screen was flickering on and off and the lock screen wouldn't open. He factory reset and was returned to out of the box like new.

Power+vol down does not reset (I tried all combination: VolUp+Power, VolDown+Power, VolDown+VolUp+Power, only last one works).
Updated: Thanks! Power+vol down almost a minute holdin resets data. Now phone is working normal.
Question: I also tried to root on E97011c and it got stuck after the restore part and nothing happened. Does this mean nothing was put on my phone? Is it possible it could become messed up now?
I don't remember accepting any ota but I'm rooted and unlocked and I am on software e90711c , I don't know if a ROM changed it or what, but I followed the guide and used the free gee app on play store to unlock boot loader. Not sure if this helps in anyway, but like I said I managed to do it and don't recall accepting any ota.

latest gmail update causes reboot when accessing new mail via notification panel

Just got the gmail update to 4.3 and everytime i access new mail via the notification panel, my phone reboots. I'm running stock rooted ICS w/o any other issues. Anyone else notice this?
I had the same problem. I ended up uninstalling the update and then reinstalling with a regular restart. I'm not sure what exactly fixed it.
I'm also stock ics rooted. It works fine now. Try just restarting (regular restart). If that doesn't work, clear the app data.

just tested it again, and it stopped doing it. must have been one of the reboots. Thanks for the ideas, I'll definitely try a reinstall if it acts up again.
print MYFILE " fi\n";
Thanks that fixed it for me
I have a worst problem:
I upgraded Gmail
I checked the email
The phone restarted.
Since then it keeps restarting again and again...
any idea for solving it?
Thanks in advance!

Already tried it, with no success! I also wiped cache partition.
Now I'm trying to uninstall gmail app using ABD during boot, in the hope to do it before it reboots, but so far I had no luck.
The command I'm using is:
Code:
adb uninstall com.google.android.gm
Do you think it's a feasible way?
EDIT: Is there a way to boot the phone in safe mode? All I found on the internet is how to reboot it into safe mode!
If ur phone is rooted u could install root app delete and try to uninstall Gmail from that
Here's the link"https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=zsj.android.uninstall
After uninstalling the Gmail app if the problem still persists than maybe u could re flash ur rom but most probably the problem will get solved after uninstalling the app..

My problem is that my phone doesn't boot!! It keeps reboot right after the Insert PIN screen appears.
So I have no chance to use the Android GUI.
I tried also booting in safe mode, but the same applies, as soon as the PIN screen appeas, the phone reboots!
Well than I guess u only have one option i.e go to cwm recovery and wipe data/factory reset
Ur phone would b in the condition wen u bought it... Every app u installed will b deleted including Gmail it would of previous version so it will solve ur problem..

[Q] Problem with OTA update

I'm having an issue with my OTA software update. I can download the update, but when it gets to the installation process, it just reboots into download mode. Currently running VRUAME7.
I had SafeStrap and root, but got rid of both of them, thinking that might be causing the problem. Still happening though. Any suggestions?
Did you reinstall any bloatware you and removed? Also when you removed SS did you remove it completely or just uninstall it? I had to remove it completely in order for update to take. Also if you want to keep root there is a thread that shows the way to do it. If not it should be as simple as plugging into PC running Kies and then doing a emergency recovery. Then the update will take without any issues. Hope this helps.

I never removed any bloatware. Only rooted so I could use Xposed Framework. I think I removed SS completely - the uninstall option in the app wouldn't work, so I removed it manually with terminal commands, and the SS splash screen no longer shows during boot. Also uninstalled the app for good measure. I'll try the Kies trick.

Here's something interesting: after a deeper look, it says the update failed and gave and Error Code of 410. Anybody know what that means?
From what I can tell error 410 and 404 both mean that a needed resource is gone or removed and cannot be found

Pretty sure Xposed is causing your problem. You might have to Odin back to stock.

So is there no way to do a clean uninstall of Xposed? I've looked into this and haven't found anything yet.

Also, is it even possible for me to flash the stock ROM with Odin? I though the locked ME7 boot loader meant I couldn't do any of that stuff. Sorry, super noob.

You don't need to uninstall it. Just run the Xposed Installer, and click "Uninstall (restore app_process)".
That'll restore the altered file.
Hopefully you'll keep root through the update (I didn't) and can reinstall after the update completes.
