[Q] Galaxy S3 I9300 got stuck/freezes - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everybody.
I got a problem with my S3 I9300.
The thing is that it is stuck/freezes very frequently during the day.
Sometimes it doesn't wake up from deep sleep (neither if I hit the home button nor the power on/off button) and sometimes it just reboots and I have to enter the SIM PIN.
I really have no clue what the hell is wrong - it worked like a charme until this thing started (about one week ago).
After I reboot the device it is working for ... I cannot say exactly. Hours? Minutes?
During the night it seems like there is no problem - because if it would freeze/reboot I would not hear my alarm :laugh:
It is rooted and Cyanogenmod 10.1 is running on it (nightly build from the 28th of April).
Are there any logfiles on the system were I can take a look at or something like this? Something is happening and I want to find out what exactly and how to prevent it from happening.
Many thanks in advance for your help.

I've already "flashed"/updated to the newest Cyanogenmod release without success.
But I can give it a try with another ROM/Stock ROM.
Thanks so far.

Have you tried on Settings>Developer Options to disable all animations?
You can also try Greenify app (for rooted phones only) it's disables unnecessary processes.
And by the way don't forget to clean your cache (you can use Clean Master app for that)

Hi Simonna,
thanks - I'll give it a try.
I'll also test if the issue is still persistent with AOKP ROM. If it is, I will try the Stock ROM.
Many thanks so far.

I flashed to the current AOKP ROM some days ago and I have to say it is running really smooth and stable. Just had one hang and this may has been caused by an app. Maybe something was wrong/faulty with the file system or something.
Furthermore thanks for the "Greenify"-App hint. This is app is brilliant!

Hi guys... I have the same problem.. I'm rooted but i'm using the official JB 4.1.2... Help us please i dont want the Sudden Death!!!

yeah tried that and still couldn't get it to work, I also found out that none of my music players could play music from the SD Card, tried switching from CWM to TWRP as some suggested formatted and cleared everything and reflashed and both problems were still there, so i've gone back to my old rom for now till those are sorted.

Random reboots on XDLH8

Hello everybody.
When i'm not toucking my phone, it sometimes do a reboot, all by itself.
Does anybody know what may be the problem?
You mean apart from the fact that you are running a rejected by Samsung firmware ???
Bad flash or an app causing problems factory reset reflash wait for official release .
jje
^^^^Crappy answer.....lol
i am not seeing any reboots on the new leak......so the guy above was probably right about a bad flash or improper install/Wipe.
Hi,
don't have that problem too, factory reset should help.
but i dont get a wifi connection on all jb releases, anyone has this problem too?

Is there a way to disable the navigation bar?
When I flash this ROM all the data that normally goes to SDCard is being put on the external card. Any way to change this behavior? I tried to use ICS Binder but I can't get it right.

Go to ROM Control, Power Menu and enable "Enable navigation menu", from there being up the power menu and you will see the options to disable it.

In that case you need to change the gps satellite pool (I think that's what its called :s) to where you live. By default the device is set to the USA, but if you live elsewhere it is easy to change it. I'll post a link tomorrow when I find the post on changing it
