[Q] [GT-I9300] PROBLEM after official 4.1.1 update - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everybody
So today (27.10.) I finally got a Jelly Bean update for my international and unbranded Finnish Samsung Galaxy S3 (GT-I9300). I updated my phone via Kies and it updated successfully. Phone booted normally, but there was little (actually, pretty big) problem: there's no notification/status bar!
I tried to open it with an app that opens it but it still didn't appear. I rebooted and still nothing and I also searched from Google and XDA but didn't find anyone with same problem, so could you be kind and help me if you know anything that might help (without wiping the phone). I would appreciate any kind of suggestion.
Thanks

Try wiping cache & dalvik in CWM.
Your data won't be wiped.

I haven't rooted so I don't have CWM. In my default recovery I can only wipe cache and it didn't help
Any ideas what I can do without rooting?

in my sgs3 with official jellybean update i dont have a startup animation

Backup data and factory reset if you do not want to root .

It seems that it was the only thing I could do so I did it and works fine, status/notification bar is there and before I couldn't also call, but now I can! Thanks :victory:

I have edited my post and added more info.
So... is this solved?
I guarantee if it isn't it would be by wiping data/factory reset + wipe cache + wipe dalvik cache and flashing the latest version of a reputable ROM.

I think so as well. If not fixed by that then the only other alternative is a hardware fault.

I have done these three wipes befor flashing the last rom.
But could you suggest me a reputable ROM. and post its link please.
Well it sounds like an .apk problem.
Try: WanamROM for stock or RootBox2.1 if you want to go down the AOKP/CM10 route.
> G S II Android development. I'm sure you can find them yourself.
What is an apk problem?
I am having exactly the same problem with my Samsung Galaxy S2. I bought mine at T-mobile, it is a T-mobile branded phone, less then a month ago.
I did a factory reset a couple of times.That did not help.
I have not flashed my phone or anything like that. I do not even know what flashing is!

Try to do one of these solutions for the problem
Settings) application) running services) show cached process) camera) stop and clear data. Test your camera.
or
Settings Select Applications / Manage Apps Select Manage Applications Select All Select Camera and/or Android Camera Select Force Stop and Clear Data Turn your device off and back on. Test your camera.
or
If that did not work, please do a Google services reset:
Please go to Settings Select Applications Select Manage Applications Select All Select Google Services Framework Select Clear Data. Turn your device off and back on. Test your camera.
I still have the problem but maybe it will work for you.
I hope it will
Thanks a lot for your advice. Unfortunately it didn't work
What I find weird,is if I clear all data,it says 0.0 kb but after restarting my phone,it says 4.0 kb. Like it didn't cleared any camera data?
I am afraid there isn't anything left for me to do then go to a Samsung servicepoint....

I deleted all the files and directories in storage and then did a factory reset.
After that I can use the camera for a short while.
When I rebooted the phone, the camera goes blank screen again :crying:
So, anyway, this is likely a software problem and not hardware.

Are you quite sure its a software problem?
I've been facing this quite a few months. Problem started a few months after rooting with CF-Root and flashing Cyanogenmod 9 nightly(was working fine for few months). Since then have reflashed kernel (tried many Siyah kernels). It would work a while then become black screen again then again work sometimes.
Flashed Cyanogenmod 10. Would work intermittently now and then.
Finally flashed to stock official ICS ROM. Didn't help. Works for a while after the wipe and again a while if i do factory reset. But problem still persists.
Let me know if you find a solution. I'm really frustrated

Unfortunately, settings has stopped

I have an i777, with ICS 4.0.3. It's an AT&T ROM, rooted via kernel replacement. If I open settings, then tap 'More...' settings stops with the error message in the subject. I can't get to any of the settings under 'More...' because of this. The phone seems to work just fine otherwise.
It's not bothering me too much, since the phone doesn't seem to have any other problems, but can anyone give me any advice on fixing this? Thanks...

ive never had this issue with any of the roms i have used. but maybe try clearing the cache partition and dalvik cache, or just do a whole reset and clear both caches and re-flash the rom.

I'm pretty sure that would not only wipe his memory, but also replace the kernel with the stock ICS one again, thus eliminating root.
OP, what kernel did you use to root? It might help us figure this out, though I've never heard of anything like this and I don't think many others have either.
yeah sounds like you need to wipe. do a full wipe and try again.

[Q] Android Revolution HD - System UIDs Inconsistent

Hi!
Upgraded my phone yeasterday to Android Revolution HD 32.0. Did Full wipe and istalled the rom. When done and reboot of the phone i get this message right before the pincode do unlock the phone.
*System UIDs Inconsistent*
UIDs on the system are inconsistent, you need to wipe your data partition on your device will be unstable.
*I'm Feeling Lucky*
I did wipe data/dactory reset
wipe cache partition
wipe dalvik cache
The earlier rom i come from was ARHD 25.0. Have i done any wrong or do i have to make the steps once again to let go the message?
Hope anyone can help me with this one

I did the wizard today but still get that message The phone is running smooth and everything works. Just ignore the message?
One more thing, the sms tone is not working, the phone only vibrates. It worked on earlier ARHD Rom.
Try another rom is all you can do and read the rom thread see if others have the problem .

Hmm.
It's still there strangely.
I'm going to run a few things in SD Maid and see if that changes anything...
If not, I may look at doing a full wipe and reflashing..

Did you ever solve this problem? I have tried with TWRP: Fixed permissions, wiped Dalvik cache and other cache. Problem persists.

[Q] Network problem.

I'm sorry if this has been posted already. Can't seem to find any thread.
The thing is I updated my s3 from 4.0.4 to 4.3 directly via Odin.
And now I'm getting an "Emergency calls only" error.
I tried reading every thread. If there is someone who would help me??
Please.
Thanks.

Yes. The IMEI and serial number are intact.
When I call on that number, I can hear a ring.
But phone doesn't notify!
Have you cleared the cache (and dalvik if rooted)?.
Factory reset?.

Yes. I tried data, cache, dalvik wipes.
Nothing helps.
Will going back to ics help?
I have the efs backup. But it's v1
Usual reason a phone is on old firmware is the efs had been badly repaired and won't work with v2 firmwares.
