Hi all
I am the new samsung galaxy s3 user and I bought it in hk and it is the HongKong S3 version.
It was gud but recently it show the very tricky situation when turn on or off the wifi it shows a strange sentence.
And I sent it to HK samsung twice and they just said the hardwares are no problems and fine...they believed that was software pro like apps crash.
Then they flashed it twice for original hk samsung rom....however it doesnt work and i give up to ask the stupid hk samsung.
I hope u guys can help me or let me know what its goin on....
Thanks so much

Am getting similar msgs about a running game whatever..... It must b some application i installed which pushes such ads or adware...... How can i know which app? Nd by the way dont know if it is wifi on off related but rather happens when internet source is toggled..... Wifi/3g etc.... Task manager shows no application running....
I asked my (Chinese) wife, it means "The Internet connection was changed".
I don't see any pics man
A quick look at logcat will probably tell you the offending app or process.
It means way of connection to the internet has changed in Chinese
I had a similar issue to this on a UK firmware with an SGS2 and when wifi was enabled it used to display a Korean message, I think there maybe some non-translated strings in this area.
Here is the text if you need it:-
網絡連接狀態改變
So do u guys know how to fixed it?

Well, there is no "issue" except that they've forgotten to translate a string of text somewhere saying "your internet connection changed" as previously stated. This notification is correct.
If you don't want to root it or flash different firmware you'll have to live with it for now.

Hello.. I trying to fix my S2 i777...I upgrade it to ICS 4.0.3 the official version using Kies... and the same issue no signal... after that I root the phone... tried so many different apps.. such as the Samsung galaxy s Sim unlock etc etc etc etc.... and the network lock is OFF and pretty sure about it... but I do not have signal... I tried different Sims from different providers and is the same issue... the phone is recognizing the Sim cuz is asking for the PIN... but not signal...also I bought a unlock code and no is not that... so someone knows how to fix it
Not trying to be an ass but why do people come to a custom ROM forum to ask questions about official att Samsung updates and help with them.

Did it work before the upgrade? If it did I would return it to AT&T and tell him the ICS update broke your phone.

did the upgrade break it? did you do something to break it?
Does your provider support at&t bands?
If the phone is stock, and you havent done anything to cause the problem. check the contacts on the SIM, or the phone h/w failed.

If it was like that before the upgrade then it's a hardware issue. The phone has a broken antenna.
And you probably voided his warranty by flashing a custom rom. LOL.

the phone was working fine 3 weeks ago!!!!
Because if I was over In The att / Samsung forums asking for help with a custom ROM what kind of replies and help would I get. Like I said I wasn't trying to be an ass about it was just kinda curious why people don't ask for help on official ROMs from the people who actually release it.

Hi everybody,
The camera flash of my new Samsung S3 haven't worked since the first day I've got my new phone. Factory reset didn't help The phone is in repair now, but I 'm wondering - did anyone have the same problem, or it's only my bad luck.
Thanks!

Yes, I'm sure
Try a flashlight App from the market then you'll know if it's just cam software related.
You're the first one I've heard of who has a broken LED light, so it's not a common issue.
However even with the most rigorous quality control, when building several millions of a device there are a few bound to be broken upon shipping or have loose connections.
guys im facing this issue from couple of days , if my 3G on i cant make any calls however i can recieve calls and sms as normal, as soon as i make it GSM only it works and calling as usual...
i flashed stock rom but same issue and i called my service provider , they assured me nothing from there side, so please if u have ever heard about this issue let me know how it can be solved

Hi, did you find any solution for your phone problem??. I'm also facing something similar, I cannot place outgoing calls when my LG phone(Zain SIM) is connected to 3G network. I used the same SIM in a different phone and it works fine. Then I tried a Batelco SIM and it doesn't work either. Zain says its a problem with my phone. Then I tried VIVA SIM with my phone and it works perfectly. Now I'm totally confused.

Sounds a bit virus like, or to be more accurate, it may be that you have been conned into signing up for some expensive text service. You might want to check with your provider that you aren't being charged a fortune for the texts. If you take prompt action you should be able to get the provider to refund any charges.
I have found something similar - SMS to 00-919560345888
I was looking over my phone bill and I noticed a SMS sent to 00-919560345888 on the 9th of November - the number seems to be in India (provider probably Airtel, somewhere in the Delhi area).
Doing a quick search here was showing this thread most recently.
During that day the only software that I remember installing on that specific S3 was Criskelo v19 (and there is a post of mine from that day to confirm that) - did anybody else see something like this?
EDIT:
IMHO the original poster should change the title to include the words SMS and 00-919560345888 to make this thread more obvious for other people that have seen similar problems!
i think when you install the india rom it sends registration sms to samsung india or network provider..as here when we purchase samsung phone we get free data for first few months..so each time fresh installation of rom it sends sms..
I doubt that ...

I really doubt that - I consider this story a major problem and I think we should further investigate the owners of that number and how that stuff got injected into the ROM - it most certainly does not look like a company number but instead 100% like a number a hacker would use to signal back the existence of a backdoor - which most likely he could perfectly use at any time with a SMS back to your phone where he most likely has root access!
I'm sure if you ask politely someone will track the number down and nuke the bastterd
Edit: Turns out to be an Indian Samsung service centre.. Nuke it anyway.

While I appreciate your generic advice you are probably not understanding what was happening - the trojan is inside a custom (auto-root) ROM, and as such could in theory do anything while the ROM was first booted - the program could not only send SMS in an "invisible" way, it could also leave a pretty much invisible hook/backdoor, and if the program wanted it could also uninstall "LBE security master" or whatever other similar program - and for the record AVAST was already installed - but as expected the program could see nothing unusual since the problem was inside the root-mode ROM!
This was a problem with the earlier jelly bean rom for india LJ5. Due to technical issues this update was withdrawn by Samsung India and later LK1 was released.
Any ROMs based on LJ5 would have this issue.

When you say that you know nothing 'about that product', what are you referring to... the N7100, the stock ROM or the kernel... or possibly all three?

Have tried almost 10-12 custom Rom on this Baseband and never showed problem plus wi-fi drivers of this ROM are considered the best by many ppl incl me.
