Hi all, I have got a S3 Gt-i9300 running Cyanogen 10.2.20130727 All has been fine until last week when all of a sudden it stopped messaging. Phone call are fine, email is OK just messaging stopped. Any suggestions on what might be looked at will be very welcome.

I too help on a forum where some might say simplistic questions are asked. I just grin and bare it. I've spent 3 days (not 24 hrs per day of course), and then thought this site might provide the answer. Thanks for your answer, I'm sure I'll work it out soon. Just a wonder, if you so dislike answering simple questions why do you bother?

Try reading my signature, it's aimed directly at you. You can't be bothered to help yourself, gave no information but expect someone to hand you the exact answer.
To be exact, your question is not simple so you got the most basic answer which will actually solve your problem -if you don't like it then you can probably work out what to do.

ICS objection issues (Team Perfection ROM)

Has anyone else been experiencing these issues with this rom?
1. Wifi tethering failing:
Is there anything that has to be done to enable this? I looked for the tethermanager file to delete with Titanium, but it looks as though the rom may have already taken care of that.
2. No call history:
The call history remains completely un populated no matter how many people call.
3. Inaccurate battery statistics:
Claims that I spent over an hour and 1/2 on talk time when I spent about 3 minutes on a call.
I just want to know that it's not only me, and if that, how to fix it.
Thanks guys!
Apparently since I'm a lurker and not much of a poster, I don't have rights to post in the development sub forum.

No is just you! And the name to this thread should've been my issues with ics , I've been running and testing most ICS roms since day 1 and there's no issues like you mentioned and it might also help others if you include your setup/rom you have and what steps you took to attempt to resolve your issues. I would suggest redownloading the desired rom, make sure you check md5 after download so you don't have a corrupted file, go into cwm and do a (full wipe/factory reset/wipe cache/wipe dalvik cache) x3 each just to be sure then flash rom and reboot and test out your results. Then fix any issues separately and not blame ICS in general.

Not blaming anyone I was just asking.
I appreciate your input.
No need for the accusatory tone.

If you used every rom like you claim, you would have realized that.

Yes...it does
Op...i am on objection and have not noticed any of these issues.
Bat stats look good...call history is all there
Did you flash rc2?
What steps have you tried to correct the issues
Wipe?
Fresh install?
Wifi tethering works a bit differently on ics . try the foxfi app
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
Thank you both.
Having less than 10 posts limits the places I can actually post.
I'm thinking to do a fresh wipe and install, go straight to RC2 and start from there.
I used CW Touch to flash.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
Haven't had a chance to use tethering but my call log is perpetually empty.
I flashed RC 2 yesterday and was unable to receive incoming calls. also, no call log. But, the developer was working on these issues late last night.

I wasn't aware that asking a question was an attack but there seem to be a lot of very sensitive users on XDA. I was actually hoping a Mod would see my post and move the thread where it belongs and where it might get more exposure and answers to the questions. I was NOT attacking anyone. I was trying to help.
New update should fix most of this!
Thank you for your help.
And thank you apdroid!
All the problems were resolved with the news update.
And I am now using foxfi which works perfectly.
Thanks XDA members!
I guess I forgot to mention how much I love this rom. I've fallen in love with my note all over again.

If you continually post these questions over and over and are still not sure, even given all the information people have given you, then I advise you not to get this phone; you seem more suited to get an iPhone.
Seriously, I'm not trying to be insulting. You've posted this EXACT same question three times now on three different threads. If you still are unsure about getting this phone after all the answers given to you by this point, then get a different phone.
No....you should not buy a gs2
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I understand you want to be sure about your investment on a new device. Unfortunately I will not allow you spamming the boards with the same questions, specially when all the questions can be easily found in XDA or using Google. If your having a hard time with English then use a browser that can translate for you. Google chrome has a extension that allows this for an example. Thread locked

[Q] Which rom to choose?

Hi guys, Ive been using cm9.1 for some time, but days ago I compared my battery life with a friends phone who's using stock samsung 4.03 and realised he had like 5 or 6 more hours. It would be great if you people could tell me which good roms considering battery life. Thank you very much!

He didn´t ask wich is the best rom, just asked for advice.
I advice you the latest samsung roms from samfirmware stock rom, use the proper rom for your carrier or area.
And search one of the great kernels that you have from our great developers here and you will be happy.
Thats what i wanned to know thank you!
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
If your comparing your phone with your friends,you would have to be doing exactly the same things/have the same settings/apps running etc.
Then if there was a 6 hour difference a conclusion could be drawn.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Why not using the stock?
Stock rom has best battery life

Best rom, advice on choosing rom etc etc its the same bloody thing and simply NOT allowed for many reasons but mostly been that is just clones other threads that are also opinionated. There is no need for threads like this you should be trying roms yourself and seeing what works bets for you, not creating topics that already exist to ask and answer the same stupid questions over and over.
Reported!
I think you need to close the half of the threads in xda. Look friend he is a junior member. Don t be so angry about this. He put the things correctly. Thats why sometimes we loose good people in xda. I ve devloped a rom a timw ago and some guys like you with some tone like you lead me to close my account in xda. And I was on the wright way developing roms for xperia devices. So be gentil and don t scarw newbees. Its not needed. Greetings

No, people who don't read sticky topics or use search before creating topics is whats needed as they just add to the flood.
I recommend you search, read and try them out to make that decision. Locked

I think that you can find your firmware on sammobile and flash it on Odin . but i dont think that flashing another modem will unlock your device , that can even cause damage to your device . Dont try to flash zip from another model in any situation

You don't need to downgrade your rom. You can flas a modem even if you don't have root. If you have a custom recovery than just flash the modem.

Better off to say Touchwiz sucks as opposed to 4.1.2 sucks. There are 2 developers that still work 4.1.2 and your going to come off real ungrateful for their efforts. There is not a thing wrong with their ROMs. You just have to know how to fine tune them to your needs. Don't bash them if you can't do it. Just don't run them.
Its not the ROM that bricked your phone

what are you talking about.. at which point in my post did i say anything about the developers and what they do? you should really stop posting things unless your going to help. it seems in every thread i make or post a reply your right there with something to say that doesn't help and your in most of the thread I have read with no help other than to say read and look at the super everything thread. Those arent answers when people are asking questions. If anyone takes the time and reads everything than they wont have to ask questions but that isnt going to happen and thats why forums are created, to help and support and I know i've said this before to you on one of my posts. He asked about downgrading and i said that 4.1.2 sucks. Did i say that the developers or the after market roms suck? No I didn't. I've used several different roms and all the after market roms run much smoother that stock.

Dude, you need to seriously take chill pill. I was quoting you, 4.1.2. Sucks.
I have done nothing but try and help you, including coaching you on your ediquite here. With your clueless way of being vague, you are bad mouthing developers. We are trying to keep them here.
I wasn't the one who recently posted about running a Note 2 ROM on our device. No wonder you bricked yours.
Look at my post count, look at yours.
Look at my thanks count, look at yours.
You are everywhere posting about same issues, multiple times and in multiple threads. Issues that only you seem to have.
I have even PM'd you and tried to help, but you only read what you want to read and question more experienced members who have solid practices. Don't want my help fine, don't post without researching your personel issues. You won't believe anybody anyway.
Good luck..........geeeeezzzzz.
Yes I edited this, as I went on a tangent regarding this, but common decency got the better of me. I hope the other one was read though.

Ok. Don`t know about unlocking stuff. Here is a thread where you can find some stock Roms. The first one is 4.0.3.

Just flash the J2 modem and follow the steps.
I had to replace my main board, so I took the ota update, then rooted, then realized I didn't unlock. So I flashed the J2 modem, unlocked, and kept that modem. It didn't do any better than the new modem that came with the update.
This thread turned pretty nasty for such a basic question.
Yeah it did. I flipped my ignore button to the on position and I'm goooood
