[Q] Continuous Accelerometer usage.. - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey all,
I've a SGS3 i9300 and use Miui 2.11.23 (Jelly Bean). I've got a strange problem.
After calling someone..the Phone.apk (com.android.phone) doesn't seem to release the accelerometer and hence causes the battery to drain more than usual. The same follows for several apps such as Camscanner, Google translate, Getril, Any.do, Camera zoom fx etc. The problem persists till I restart the phone.
I have accelerometer disabled by default. I've tried reinstalling the ROM with wipe data, wipe cache and wipe dalvic cache but can't seem to put away the problem.
Is anyone else having this problem?
Much appreciated

[Q] Market application problem

Recently I have lost my Market application (vendor.apk)
I managed to install it back from the internal memory, but now it gets force closed after a few seconds.
I have tried to clear data and cache too. The problem still occurs.
Is there any way that I could get it to work without FC?
I would prefer not to re-flash my ROM.

[Q] Dalvik cache and general setting problem

Hey guys, I have problems about wipe dalvik cache and general setting
first of all I flash KA10.2 which seems to work great for me, so today I decide to flash KA11 but I have the same system UI problems as everyone so I flash KA10.2 back. After I flash KA10..2 back, I can't download any app from play store and "insufficient storage on device" occur, so I decide to do a full wipe and re-flash KA10.2 again, but "insufficient storage on device" still occur and when I try to wipe dalvik cache, the screen flash and nothing happen, no confirmation. Another problem is that every time I turn off the phone and turn it on again, I have to set up my general setting every time. (Language, connection, account, sync just like the set up guide)
so do you have any solution or suggestion for me?
Thank you in advance
Don't know what to do, but download Lucky Patcher (used to patch paid apps, but also has a fix for the storage issue) and keep it with you installed.

[Q] My S3 freezes when syncing

Hi all, I have a real strange problem I cannot underststand.
Since two or three days, my S3 has been freezing every few minutes.
I restored factory settings and installed latest italian original firmware without root or anything.
I powered it up and, after having logged in to Google during the initial setup, my Phone freezes.
I thought it was a hardware problem, but, after trying and trying, I discovered that if I toggle off Syncing, everything works fine.
Any idea?
I am going to try a custom rom, because I cannot really understand the problem.
My stock is: I9300XXEMA2_I9300ITVEMA1_ITV
TIA

did you try to switch off certain parts that are synced (e.g. contacts, calendar etc.) to isolate the problem?
Yes, it could be caused by Picasa... but not sure at all

well try to deactivate only Picasa and see, maybe it tries to sync all pictures and you got too many to bear?
I tried, no success
Try clearing Google services framework data, and all Google app data, or remove Google account and wipe cache/dalvik then add account again

I've got the exact problem, but since I turned sync off (by the pulling-down menu) my SGS3 has managed to stay on for an hour without freezing. The very minute I turn sync on, it freezes again, and it does'nt matter what I'm doing at that moment, if I'm browsing the internet och just flipping around in the settings or using the Play store.
Samsung says they havn't heard of this before..
Have you tried the custom ROM?
Here is how solved.
I added the google account. I pressed "cancel" while it was syncing.
Then I deactivated Sync with Picasa and Google+ Photo.
Moreover I clicked "Settings -> Apps -> All Apps -> Gallery -> Clear Data".
In my gallery, now, I only see Camera Photos... everything is working fine.
Let me know if it works for you.
P.S. Custom ROMS I tried did not have this problem.

[Q] Voice Services Not Working: rooted, multiple custom roms

Hi, I'm currently running the latest liquid smooth rom and all is well. However, I've been trying out different roms and I follow the same procedure when moving to different roms: factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik and then I install. With newer carbon rom, pacman, and PA after a clean install voice services fail to work at all. Voice on google now, voice dial, voice search, and voice input on keyboard all begin initializing but then fail almost immediately. I can't seem to get them to work. Tried clearing cache and data, fixing permissions, and downgrading google now. Please help:laugh:

[Q] strange bugs plz help

HI there,
Since a week or two my S2 showed some strange, yet very specific bugs.
The bugs that I know of are the following:
-the 9gag app will open and I will be able to navigate through menu's but it will not show pictures
-My news app (nu.nl) will crash about 10 seconds after opening.
-I cannot enter my gallery, it will give the message that there isnt enough space and that I should remove stuff.
-I cannot send or download pictures/videos on whatsapp
As far as I know the rest works fine.
I tried the following to resolve the issues as followed:
-clear and reinstall the apps.
-clear dalvik and cach and reinstall apps after deleting them
-clear all cache and do factory reset
-clear USB storage and SD storage and do factory reset.
-change between touch wiz and Nova
All to no avail. When I reboot my phone both the 9gag app and the news app and the gallery will work. I can use them and they will respond fast and correctly. After a few minutes all apps will stop working in the way described above.
I have no clue on how to further explore this bugs.
Is this a hardware problem maybe?
If something is corrupt, how can I try to fix it??
PS: the news app (nu.nl) works on all my friends phones. 9gag also works on other S2's
If anyone has any idea what else I can try, plz advice.
thx

Best idea is to switch to custom roms. You can have latest 4.4.4 Kitkat, so why are even trying? If you need thorough help, just let me know
This is a kernel problem. As Ahmed described, get yourself rooted and switch to custom roms. Otherwise if you want to stay stock, root your S2 only as it changes Kernel during rooting. Then tell us. I don't think it is a hardware issue. It is the bad behaviour of your kernel.
I had the exact same issue with my galaxy s2, even after installing new rom and changing the kernel the problem was still there.
After some reflexion i realised i let google play reinstall all my application before the bug reappeared. so i have made some test and came to the conclusion that the 9gag app was the problem, after uninstall it and restart the phone everything run fine for me.
So if you still have this problem try to uninstall the 9gag application.
Sorry for my bad english i hope it's still understandable
