[Q] Random freezes after DLIB flash. - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey there
Just installed the XEO-DLIB release.I've restored several apps with TB and got root again with CF-Root. Wiped completely after flashing. But from time to time I get annoying freezes.
Tried different SetCPU governors but none of them seem to improve this.
Some of the freezes need me to pull the battery in order to reboot.
Is there anyone who might have a solution on this?
If any further information is needed just let me know and I'll provide it
Kind regards
ch0ka

Im getying the same with omega newest vs.
I reverted to stock ics wiped cache dalvik factory reset the lot.
Every now and then the phone gets really slughish and i mean really sluggish ive actually just had to power off.
Also the stock browser. It doesnt seem to go back a page unless you click hard key 4 times. very annoying.

Suggest you guys to reflash with full wipe again.

With TB restore apps but not system data .
Factory reset and full wipe and flash stock rom .

You are not alone mate.
I couldn't resist waiting for the Official JB so I flashed Wanam JB ROM 3.7
I got 3 Touchwiz home error already which i read some where reported already + i've noticed while the phone charges the Led is so dim ? very strange. The Quadrant result shows my current JB Rom is slower than ICS ROM by big margins. not impressed by JB.

LED`s brightness is controlled through the light sensor. Thats why its dim. Get light over the phone and it will get brighter.

Ty mate you are right.as I moved it towards my study lamp. It got brighter. Anything else or the known bugs which I've missed. By the way just flashed note 2 gallery.it's amazing. If any one missing it check it under theme section.

Same here random freezes I got so frustrated I am back on my best nand backup ICS.... and I swear to god i actually forgot how this phone felt, Now it is BUTTERY smooth even opening widgets and instanly scrolling hardly jerks... I have it clocked to 1704mhz and battery is great perfectly stable.. Every single game works without a problem. Nothing beats ICS still in my eyes, even with that extra ram on JB. ICS is still smoother on my phone right now. Untill JB becomes like this I aint going to use as a daily
well in one week I will be on I9305 now that JB is 100% better

Re flashed it and it has sorted lag and browser problems.
Is anyone having problems with 3g. I am nog able to get it working. Tried a couple of modems and nothing.
Im on omega v27.1
cheers

[Q] Skyraider not starting right

Gads. I've waited 2 years to root my phone and the first ROM I flash toasts it. I downloaded the Skyraider Zeus 1.3 and everything looked fine. When it rebooted, though, I realized I'm not able to do anything.
I slide the lock to get into the phone and I'm greeted by a dialog about in-call volume. All I can do is hit the Silent button and it switches between that and bluetooth volume. I can't figure out how to get past it so I can actually do anything.
Ideas?
ETA: Now I'm really sick to my stomach. I decided to restore from backup. Neither one of the backups I made prior to flashing are working.
Error while restoring /data!
WTF? Now I'm dead in the water.
4pm Update: I figured I have a brick now so I wiped data/factory reset, wiped cache. Now I'm trying to re-install Skyraider. I'm not holding my breath.
You're not bricked.
Go back into recovery...
Wipe data/factory reset 3x, wipe cache, and then wipe dalvik cache.
Flash the ROM.
You should be good.

Thanks. I did that and it worked. I guess I have to reinstall everything.
Why would two different backups fail to restore? The first I did manually last night through Titanium. The second I did when I flashed through ROM Manager.
That's your problem using rom manager. Download 4ext in the play store and you wont have backup issues.

Will do. What a debacle it started out to be. I think I'm ok now. I got the ROM working and for some reason although I wasn't able to boot into recovery and restore I have been able to restore my apps and data through Titanium. I have to say buying the Pro license was worth not having to acknowledge each install. :laugh:
One thing I noticed is that I used to be able to slide the task bar down and have two options. Initially it was set with notifications but I could select a tab to make quick selections like enable/disable the hotspot, etc. I'll have to figure out why I only see notifications now. Maybe that's just part of the ROM behavior.

That's strange that you don't see the quick settings tab.
Usually after flashing a ROM through recovery, I flash it an extra time so that I know it gets all the files through.
I know when I flashed Gingeritis 3D, I couldn't get the music player to stop force closing when I changed the music sound effects. The only way to fix these issues and a few others was to flash it a couple more times, without wiping anything at all. Dirty flashes (not wiping) could possibly fix any issues as long as you haven't changed any of the ROMs settings or set up anything.

Ha! I was just trying to grab a screenshot and found Quick Settings. I accidentally tapped the top of the window and now I see it. However, it only lists Wi-Fi, BT, GPS, and media volume. I really hope I can figure out how to add the hotspot.

So far this ROM seems to be much faster jumping between apps than stock. I'm going to play with it a few days and then throw caution to the wind and try the Skyraider ICS ROM. :silly:
Skyraider ics? I wasn't aware that they had an ics rom for the bolt.

Nusense is actually on my list. These are what I was initially looking at trying:
Liquid Smooth AOKP
SkyRaider Zeus 1.3
NuSense
I think I'm like most Tbolt users that are tired of waiting for ICS. I wasn't sure about Nusense because I was believing that Sense was the source of a lot of my problems. However, SkyRaider (even though it's neither ICS nor Sense-less) is running considerably better. My phone was next to useless. It might take 1-2 min just for the stupid thing to dial a # once it was selected. I'd tell people if I ever needed 911 I'd be dead before it even dialed. I also had a lot of problems with messaging and general performance. So maybe it was just a bloatware problem that was dragging me into the mud.
Now that I'm having a positive experience with SR I think I'm going to make NuSense my next one. It looks very promising. I appreciate the warning and help to steer me clear.

You should try Twisteds version of Liquid ICS AOSP . Only problem is Netflix and video can don't work. But other than that its a great rom --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33076925
Sent from my ThunderBolt using Tapatalk 2
Thanks. I'll give it a shot. I don't use Netflix much from the phone so that's not a deal breaker.
How is it with data? I flashed NuSense yesterday morning and flashed back to SkyRaider last night. I couldn't stay connected. The data drops were horrible. It was odd. I'd have the 3G/4G icon like I was connected but couldn't surf/email/etc. Then other times I'd lose the 3G/4G altogether. Sometimes resetting the mobile data would work and other times it would just laugh at me.
I guess I didn't give it much of a chance since it only lasted <12 hours but it was driving me nuts. Nothing like spending time with family and not being able to surf and escape.
Any liquid based ics rom is plagued with data drops.

You don't get data drops on other builds? Have you checked the gold tabs under your battery door and bald sure they aren't damaged? Maybe check to see if they are making good contact too.

Ugh. That's not good. SkyRaider has been rock solid on data. The only thing I've really run into is it seems flashing my apps with app2zip only works on some things. I end up having to re-flash Kindle, Lookout, and a few other apps once I'm up and running again.
I was really looking forward to ICS but not if data drops are the norm.

Laggy after a while....

After use for a while....the screen gets real unresponsive. To the point where if I try to scroll down on FB...it will actually register a click instead of a swipe and open up the picture I happen to swipe over.....anyone else???

This only happens to me when I'm trying to use my phone while it is plugged in and charging. It acts all crazy, but once I unplug it the thing works fine. I pretty much keep my phone in ECO mode and haven't switched that off to see if it makes a difference.
Same here. I keep my phone on ECO mode and have no issues with responsiveness, except for once in a while when it's plugged in and charging.

I DO have that problem with mine. I am unlocked, rooted and running nottach's Base ROM the problem has reoccurred with the stock ROM and versions 0.5, 0.6.5 and 0.7.3 .
It's probably a kernel-level memory or CPU issue because for most people it appears to be a specifically time-based problem. The longer your uptime is, the worse the problem gets. Reboot your phone and the problem goes away for awhile.

[Q] Phantom menu??

1 month ago it begins...
im in using an app and ramdomly the screen start to flicker
as someone was pressing as a crazy the menu and back softkeys
sometimes a reboot fix it...sometimes doesn't...
it drives me crazy!!, dunno how to start to fix this

since yesterday, flashed the stock rom with LGNPST...not the stock that i've flashed with CWM...
at this moment, didn't installed nothing, didn't rooted, and phone is nice and stable...
maybe an app is causing it?
maybe root?
so...let's try it a little more and see what happens

Agreed. I was forced to use the stock tot for a few days because I couldn't unlock. The stock ROM is actually the smoothest ROM I've used. The boot time is only a few seconds. I'm on Nocturnal now, because I have to have Google Now and the jellybean ROM had BSOD issues.

HELP! S3 touchscreen not responding.

Since yesterday I am facing this problem.
Last evening the touchscreen of my phone just stopped responding. It happened so: all of the sudden the touch wouldn't respond. Pressing the power button to switch of the screen for sleep mode was not happening. The last thing I had done was pull down the notification bar so that so it was stuck there. I pressed and held the power button to restart and it worked fine. After a few hours again it happened. Restarted again. Worked. But now everytime its happening. It stops responding. I restart then it works for 2-3 minutes and stops responding and again Ihave to restart and again it stops after a couple of minutes.
I tried going into recovery mode and download mode and it enter and it charges properly also.
Also, last night I switched the phone off and I left it on charge annotd today morning when I switched it on the problem is still there.
please help me out
My galaxy s3 is rooted and its running on stock rom 4.1.2 and siryah kernel.
Is it a hardware problem or software? What can be done?
Another thing just happened now. It stopped responding while I was watching a video on youtube. The screen didnt respond but the video was working and after a while the video stopped but the audio was still playing!

Its not 4.2 It's 4.1.2 Using the official one. And I have been using the siyah kernel for over a month now. Never seemed to cause a problem and never updated anything.
And no I didnt take out the battery. I just kept it switched off. Anyway I will do that too now.

Should I flash stock firmwire then try rooting it again and then flash the kernel?
The thing is I used to use my phone while on charge. A friend says the circuits must have gone haywire but this doesn't seems like a hardware problem.

If u use your phone while on charge that only harms the battery (it will make it last less...but it is inevitable anyways who dooesnt use phone whike on charge)...
What would be the very best option would be to factory reset through recovery (u have clockworkmod right?) (U can save apps with titanium backup) and flash a new rom and THEN a new kernel.
If you flash foxhound it comes with kernel already backed.
BUT before doing this (nobody likes to start off fresh) just try flashing another kernel first(or try and get an updated version of siyah kernel, maybe you got the s2 variant, which has a higher build version than the s3, making it look obsolete).

Yeah, I'm seeing 0 lag... coming from LG G2 and this phone is just as smooth or smoother... dunno what they are taking about. I installed Nova Launcher for the first time in 6 months and omg I didn't realize how much I missed it. (never installed on LG G2 cause I was worried knock on/off would break, but never bothered to even try it out lol. /lazy).
All of you say NO lag, is anyone here actually rooted?
I'm rooted, which was fine while running stock...but I've installed Omega (international ROM) and yes, I'm experiencing some lag. I've also lost the "HD" feature while in a call...I'm considering coming back to a debloated version of the stock ROM while maintaining root.
Not rooted here yet. Going to see how long I can last before I feel I need to/get desperate.
I've made up my mind to wait for a TMO custom ROM, the international ROM that i've tried caused me a little bit of lag.

that could just be the result of omega being very early - the OP admits that he hasn't done much with the ROM - just enought to get soemthing out I think - I would imagine it will improve as development progresses.
I flashed omega - saw a little bit of lag and installed LagFree from Playstore - I also have an ap called "Seeder" that i use if Lag becomes an issue - after i installed those, I didn't see any lag issues on Omega - I didn't need to install either one of them on the stock rom - smooth as silk.

Yea, there isn't enough change in the Omega rom that warrants flashing, unless I had an international version of the S5. I'm using the debloat software right now on the stock TMO image and seeing what that's gonna do.
Well sometimes walking up my screen I do get a second or so lag before the screen comes on.

I also don't like losing wifi calling - so for me - an international rom has to be really special to make me want to flash it - but then I have an addiction to flashing - so sometimes I just flash to check it out - and then restore my previous rom - it's a disease...lol..maybe one day I will get help..
It's typical for the regular TouchWiz specific carrier to have issues, especially with bloatware . That's why we won't see the true potential till we start seeing custom Roms. Any phone stock is like a empty canvas
Mostly no lag here. I disabled the Lookout or Lockout, whatever it's called, security thing that kept scanning everything I was doing. Switched to ART. Some other stuff I don't remember. The only lag I experienced was a second delay when pressing the recent apps button. But it's a hell of a lot faster than the S4's. Also switching between pages on the UI was a little stuttery, turning off battery saving mode fixed that. Also don't forget that the battery saving mode limits the CPU.
Ehh, just got my S5 yesterday and am having super lag. Even just typing on the keyboard is laggy and choppy. Flicking around home screens, app drawer, and menus mostly fine... but typing and scrolling through just about every app (including email) is choppy and stutters. Haven't seen it, but friend claims his S5 is fine, so it might just be my phone. ..
Taking it back for an exchange anyways because of screen discoloration issues, maybe I just got a bum unit. Definitely not right though, have never seen so much lag on a phone before.

My phone seems a little choppy especially when opening up messaging and the keyboard popping up.. Sometimes waking up the phone tends to have a slight lag. This is me being stock not even rooted yet. Don't know if rooting will be worth it..

The problem I'm having is random app closes. Just like Facebook and Google maps. Maps closed down several times today while in navigation for some reason. I have yet to figure out why it's happening.
