[Q] S3 Alarm not working - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dears,
My alarm on s3 is not working,
I usually set the alarm at 7 am, sometimes it rings and sometimes no, I thought first that the problem in silent mode, but it wasnt,
blocking mode is disabled on my phone,
if i set the alarm for after 1 min it worked, however at 7 am it is randomly working,
My phone was update to the original firmware 4.1.2

[Q]? why post in this section then?

I have the same problem with the 4.1.2 firmware and the I9300XXEMR2 I9300XXEMB1 someone has a solution?

Or if it bothers you so much you can use the report button and ask for it to be moved.

Do you set for which day the alarm should ring ? On default it would ring the next day only. You have to manualy select which days you want it to be active.

Maybe off topic, but is your phone On? Alarm doesn't work on Android when phone is Off.

same thing is happening to my wife's s3.
phone is on stock rom. not rooted. it just happened all of a sudden. previously it was working fine.
did a factory reset and still the same. alarm now does not work when the phone is in silent /vibrate mode. s

[Q] Official ICS Notification Issue

I'm not sure why but my notification sounds will stop working at a random times. I have to restart my phone to get them working again. I'll have text messages and email without a peep from my phone. Notification volume is at Max and will even play the default tone when adjusted but will not play a notification sound or vibrate for any event until I restart.
I can also now confirm that both my at&t GSIIs with ICS do this but mine seems to be more frequent.
Anyone having this issue?

have ya done a factory reset? Pulled battery for a few? checked the water things inside the phone?
all **** at&t will ask you to do.
Factory reset will most likely fix, or its just the fact that your running a stock at&t build.
I've done all of the above and no a factory reset didn't fix it.
Also my phone is not the only phone this issue is affecting. Both of my GSIIs are doing it plus the other folks if you look at the other forum posts.

I wonder the same thing. Why do people think this place is the help desk? Especially for phones running stock. Boggles the mind it does.

SGS3 problem with losing all sounds

Hello,
I bought recently the new SGS3 and after a week or two of using I noticed the phone loses all the sounds despite all of them are turned on and not being on minimum. After a while the sounds get back and everything works fine. At first I thought it might be from the settings because I set up silent mode for all notifications and I thought it may turn all the sounds off, despite it normally shouldn't. After playing for a while with the phone I realized the issue appears randomly without any reasons while I was playing game or simply navigating through the phone. If anyone had experienced the same issue or have an idea what could be the problem (software, hardware, settings, OS, etc) or how it can be solved, please respond. Any answer is appreciated as the problem is quite annoying as I'm missing calls because of it.
Thank you.
Phone details:
Samsung Galaxy S III
Android version - 4.0.4
Baseband version - I9300BOLF1
Kernel version - 3.0.15-782020
Build number - IMM76D.I9300XXBLFB
P.S. Restart of the phone doesn't help as I already tried it. The issues is related to all the sounds not to the vibration, the last works fine.
Backup data and factory reset.

Thank you for your advise JJEgan, unfortunately it didn't help neither. Yesterday I did the factory reset and left it as it is, didn't restore any of my previous settings or apps, didn't install anything additional, just wanted to see if the problem will appear again, and unfortunately it did.
Anything else I can try or I should take it to a service?
Thank you
I have the same problem with notification sounds. The problem appears when i turn off notifications on apk like im+ or Yahoo messenger. Is there any other solution rather than factory rest?

[Q] S3 Jelly Bean -notification stop in WIFI

Dear Friends,
I am new to this forum . I have just bought S3 International version, two weeks back as a first android phone . Its with Jelly bean 4.1.2.
I am facing the notification problems in wifi . Notification works fine in mobile network but not always in home WIFI. The problem starts only if I change twice in between wifi to mobile ( wifi -mobile -wifi ). I am using notification for Facebook messenger and Gtalk. I did factory reset ,hard reset and also tried in friend's WIFI but nothing works to that problem. Only one thing I see, it works if I reboot the phone, then the notifications start to work again in the same WIFI and I use to get all the old notification also.. During this phase( notification stop phase) I see that Gtalk goes offline even though I can chat and Facebook messenger remain online. I am not using any apps other than skyple/facebook/voip that may have an impact to this problem.
Pleas let me know if you are facing this issue or if you know any solution towards the problem.
Thanks for reply in advance.

[BUG] telephone feature complete silent

Hi,
I am having a bug where the telephone feature gets completely silent. Means no one can hear me, I can hear no one, not even the free line signal. Everything else on the phone is fine.
I tried flashing different modems to no avail. Also I checked whether it's headphone related, but no.
If that bug happens, I have to completely reset the phone. After that, it works again.
Anyone here with similar symptoms and a possible fix? I don't want to reset my phone every six weeks..
I am running CM-10.1 from yesterday but it also happened with CM-10.0
[Q&A] altough Id love to help you I cant find anything related. Try a different, reflash gapps, try a megawipe. It is not rom related because otheres dont have the problem.
Also please, put questions where they belong, in the Q&A section of this forum, not in general. Hit the report button and ask for a move.
Kind regards,
Thomas

I have now resetted it (again) and it works as expected. The process with carbon is a bit easier, but still some manual configuration needed...
If it bothers me enough the next time, I'll try flashing stock.
Wrong modem.

[Q] Strange sound problem

Hi. Got a strange sound problem on my S3. Have Omega Rom installed XXEMB5 v 43.1 and J-Kay 14.92.9. Stock Kernel After some time my phone does not have any sound. If i try to play a sound withsound player it says that it is not supported. Cannot play any Youtube video, no ringtone or notification sound. If I reboot the phone everything works normal again for some time until the problem is there again. Tried to reset to factory, wiped and reformatted the internal and external memory card and reinstalled Rom and Jkay. Anyone knows about this problem or have a solution?

Questions go in the question and answer section.

I'd install a stock ROM to test the speaker. That will tell you if the problem is the custom ROM, which it may well be. Otherwise, ask in the specific ROM's thread that the dev started.
Hi, I think I am having the same problem.
About 30 minutes ago I missed a call, Phone was on my desk 2 meters away?? He then rang back and the phone was in front of me with the call screen but no sound, I checked all volume levels and they were all high. Now when I altered the volume with the rocker switch (Down then up) the volume came back
I also had this same problem a few weeks ago when I was running custom Samsung roms, But that was mainly to do with the alarm going off but not sounding. So I reverted back to stock because of those issues and now that I am getting the same problems on the stock software it must be a hardware fault.
So I am pretty sure it has nothing to do with the rom but the hardware instead somehow. I Don't want to but I may have to send my phone off.
Somebody else must have this problem as well? ??
i have the same problem too, just like for me the sonds do not come back after reboot. i made it to work somehow but after one more reboot the problem is here again and cant make it work again.
