Hi everyone, I've got this problem with newsense ROM. every time I exit the browser the HTC logo appears and whole launcher reboots. same thing happens when exiting games or other apps. Does anyone know the solution to this problem 'cause it's pretty annoying

Hey dude, I'm getting the very same 'problem' but you'll get used to it...
I suppose, it's because the legend runs on low memory and then kills the launcher. I did not see any setting to force the launcher to stay in memory yet.

Hi, when you say "newsense ROM" do you mean OGO's gingerbread?
If you do mean OGO's, have you flashed the new kernel? It seams to fix "most" problems
you'll find it here ---> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18184470&postcount=2228
If not forget I typed
yes I was talking about Ogo's rom. I've flashed this new kernel yesterday and it works slightly better. sense restarts only once in a while and there are not so many reboots. Thanks mate!

Hi,
I am using Ogo's RC4b since some weeks. Sense reboots were once or twice a day. After fixing permissions via CWM, Sense reboots are occuring really seldom, let's say about once a week.
So I assume, reboots could be caused by several reasons and only a few reasons are in the ROM itself.

Hi, I've been using a number of ics roms since it was released and am currently on wanam v 12. I was wondering if anyone else has had a very slow response from the stock camera since moving to ics, never had any problems with gingerbread. The camera takes a picture normally but takes several seconds to finally respond and able to take another picture. Any advice?

Probably not the advice you're looking for, but try miui rom, specifically cmiui. The camera is really nippy on that one.
It may be a CM9 camera apk that's installed in cmiui. You could see if you could track down the apk on its own if you don't want to flash another rom.
And I know what you mean, every ics rom has given me bad lag with taking pics.

The GS2 doesn't have zero-shutter lag, but I am not experiencing a few seconds worth of lag as you are.
Try clearing data in App Info, which will hopefully fix your issue.
Try alternative cameras on the Play Store, namely Camera ICS.
Report back and tell me if that fixes anything.
Hey thanks for the advice! I cleared data on the app and is way faster now.

Hi,
I have 3 issues. Hope somebody can help:
1: Phone operates too slow. For example when I go to menu, app icons take around 5 seconds to appear. Similarly when I go to home screen it takes the same lag. So much delay that I could capture the screen short. You can see that weather clock and alarm widgets didn't appear. I cleared cache several times n restarts but it works fine for few mins n then again becomes laggy.
2: Keyboard disappears after typing few letters and sometimes it takes several secs to get it back. Reappearing delay is may be related to the above problem of slow response but why it disappears in first place.
3: Battery doesn't charge despite the whole night charging. Its happens not do often but really bugging me. I noticed that whenever I get missed notifications like calls or msgs it stops charging. Not sure why it's happening.
Looking forward to some help from experts. Please note that I feel these problems are occurring more after recent update. I'm using stock Rom of intl s3 version.
Thanks

Hi,
First, give me your firmware number. Tape *#1234# on your phone dialler. Is it a custom ROM ?

Factory reset it and update to latest firmware via KIES or Odin.
How to factory reset
http://www.jayceooi.com/2012/06/08/how-to-hard-reset-samsung-galaxy-s3/
Thanks.I have the latest stock firmware already. Do you think stock Rom is faulty? And I should root it and lose warranty. I can do that but is it the only solution?

Where have i mentioned to root? I don't say root.
Read again. Yes, sometimes it could be something related to your software.

Ok read It agaIn. Thanks. If thats the only solution, will wait for jellybean update that's just around the corner. I wondered if anything related to hardware or phone settings was to be blamed. But anyhow, thanks.

I am also on XXBLFB and facing no such issues. You should check if some app is not eating a lot of RAM.
Jelly Bean won't be available for this region anytime soon keeping in view the time it took S2 to receive ICS update here.
I suspect the same. my RAM doesn't go below 600mb even if I close all apps and clear ram from task manager. After restart, phone behaves well for an hour but then again becomes laggy. My S2 is much faster than this with lot more apps. This S3 is really disappointing me.

Try to find the culprit app. I have 100+ apps and set is still very very smooth.

That's the status when I just cleared cache.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
my suggestion is to do a factory reset (after backing up your contacts, messages, notes etc). then download your apps again and note the behavior of phone after each app. You might find the culprit then. It doesn't seem like an issue with the update since I also updated mine. Also very less likely its gonna be hardware issue.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Maybe the CPU is not working at its entire power. If the factory reset is not working, maybe you should go and replace the device, before it's too late. When you bought it ? If the phone have less than 30 days you should get an instant replace. Not sure that JB will help you, as the installation isn't like a "full format" of your phone
Hard reset: *2767*3855# (no warning message before formating, so type it when you're ready, also remove the sdcard if you don't want wiped too.)
Or *#*#7780#*#* - Factory data reset - Clears Google-account data, system and program settings and installed programs. system will not be deleted, and OEM programs, as well as My Documents (pictures, music, videos)
Thanks. Will get in touch with the vendor for replacement (though I'm sure he will not agree that easily) or else will do a complete reset. I'm really pissed off for spending this much for getting this device. Samsung is very serious in pushing their loyalists away!

Sometimes, there can be some errors. You know, nobody's perfect and we are all humans. After one week after I bought my phone, I found that it have sort of scratch on the screen, but looked like inside of it. It could be seen only in high light. The vendor replaced it instantly. This one is perfect. Love it and is extremely fast and I have many apps on it. Good luck!

You're a lucky dude. I did one thing. Uninstalled AVG antivirus. Will update if I see some improvement.

Check in task manager, you should have an idea about how is going bad. Also change the antivirus for Avast. Avast is much better. However I recommend without antivirus. I just scan sometimes my phone with it or lookout but never leave the antivirus installed. Is just a waste of RAM memory.
If nothing works do a full backup with Kies and do the complete factory reset.
Most of the apps will be automatically reinstalled when you add back your Google account, but you need the backup for settings and saves.

Uninstalled several apps. Removed widgets from desktops. But still same issue. One thing I'm not able to figure out is why my RAM doesn't go below ~600mb despite killing every task n cleaning cache. I guest a factory reset and ROM installation is the only way out. Thanks guys for all the tips.

Even with all the apps I have on my phone the RAM usage is around 580-640 (stupid SwiftKey using 45 mb most of time) and when I kill the apps I have 430 mb, slowly increasing til 530. Try reset, you have nothing to lose.

Im using WAZE as my main GPS software and my problem with it is when I want to multitask by going to TuneInRadio or Chrome,
after a few seconds Waze stops and I have to start waze again, instead of just going to the window I was in.
I was told Samsung kills softwares after you are not using them, but is there a way to disallow this? I want to define that nothing kills waze but me, when exiting.
Any ideas?
If your phone are not rooted, nothing much you can do other than disabled some bloatwares.

Looks like its exactly what I needed.
I was gonna wait for OTA JB, but now Im gonna upgrade to JB and flash this rom when I get the chance.
Thanks.
any Fc with the following mod given above???
I'm not too keen on that mod at all. Rom got noticeably slower using it. I just flashed Foxhound Rom Essentials (Stripped down JB Rom), flashed latest siyah kernel and left it there. Very smooth and apps don't tend to close. I can use Dolphin Browser with Co Pilot in the background and Poweramp running. Go SMS was also in memory as was Whatsapp.

I use Waze too and I don´t have this problem on ICS Stock Rom.. I can switch between app and Waze keep tracking in background.
For my experience Chrome consume a LOT of Ram but it the best browser I can´t switch to another..
Hi, I have just purchased my new s3 2 days ago and I'm loving it.. Until now. It is a rooted s3 32gb running cm 10.1.3 stable.
Here's the problem, out of nowhere my s3 touch screen started playing up. The input lag is far greater than it was before and my keyboard has become really sluggish and slow. Also, the touchscreen will also do weird things like if I try and click on an app it flips to the next app page instead. I've tried different kernels, killed apps and fully optimised my device to 100% yet it's still the same. I even reflashed my room but still no change.
The strange thing is that the device still performs tasks flawlessly with no problems, it's just the touchscreen input that isn't doing what it should.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance!

Just fixed the issue after 5h of trial and error, it was caused by having magnification gestures on in the settings menu lol :/
