Installed OG on my phone 5 days ago and it started to get really laggy yesterday. Requires me to restart the phone multiple times a day. I Odin the tar and wiped everything. Did not root. Any solution to make the phone better without rooting?
none root and install custom recovery-is there a reason why u dont want to root will give me a good perspective
I can confirm that the lock screen lag and lag troughout the system is due to auto brightness (services.jar) like the s6 edge.

Ok, so is anyone else having any of these problems:
- When using camera, screen turns off and on when it tries to focus.
- Receiving SMS issues until reboot.
- Issues going from 4G to 3G, or 3G to or from WiFi, or 4G to WiFi.
- Screen responsiveness issues.
- Random rebooting.
- GPS issues.
Most problems are resolved after a reboot but then come back progressively as I use the phone. I'm rebooting 3-4 times per day. I thought this was Android, not BlackBerry...
I'm not rooted and have already factory reset like 2 or 3 times. My Dinc didn't even have this many problems. :/

Also, when listening to music for a certain amount of time, it just stops and then phone becomes unresponsive till reboot. Not sure if that is a PowerAMP issue or not.

Try flashing an update.zip rom of your device using recovery mode. Might need root. Depends on devices though. Mg N1 works without rooting.

Where would I be able to get that? And how do I boot into recovery? My Incredible was rooted and before the last update, it was power and volume down. Then after the update, it changed to power and volume up.
Also, I did reboot my phone and my camera still doesn't work. I'm going to try to clear the data from the application manager
UPDATE: Clearing data from camera didn't have an effect

I guess you should Google for the steps to go into recovery for Incredible... not familiar with it.
For the rom go search your build number on XDA. You can use custom ones too I guess.
But sometimes it goes 'signature verification failed. Action aborted'. Ask senior members for that. I cannot solve it.

What kind of screen responsiveness issues are you having? Mine seems to "slow" down a lot after a day and a half of uptime, a reboot fixes it but it's annoying to have to reboot that often just because the touch input slows down so much I can't use the phone.
I was streaming video from PC to phone last night and after about 3 hours the phone started going really slow. Scrolling through the homescreens took 5 to 10 seconds and opening an app, Torch for instance took about 20 seconds.
This morning I attempted a restore from a few days ago, but now it keeps rebooting into recovery or hangs on the title screen.
All help appreciated.

Factory reset after a wipe .

That's what I did. Anyway I've attempted to flash stock using Odin and it stops and fails at system.img. Think there's something wrong with the hardware so I'm trying to get it back to stock as it's still under warrantee.
Guys Essential ver 0.2 by foxhound is the fastest JB Rom
I have been using it and Rom is less than 300mb with no bloatware from Samsung but you can still enjoy the Samsung motion features.

Op - Factory Reset - Wipe Cache - Wipe Dav - factory reset again - flash cm10
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
In the last few days my phone has continuously been switching itself off or freezing and the only way to get it to work again is pulling the battery or resetting it. The phone is stock, running Android 4.1.2 with firmware I9300XXELLA.
I did notice the phone had switched itself off a few times before now, but now it has got to the point where its happening all the time. I've also noticed that when the phone is booting back up after the lock screen appears the message "Currently unable to download please try again later" is coming up (which I think is more than likely the problem, but when I do attempt to update the phone it says its up to date).
So far I've tried running without an SD card, clearing Touchwiz homes data and switching off auto updates but these have made no difference. If anyone can offer any help it'd be really appreciated as the last thing I want to do is exchange the phone as it can be a pain in the butt.
Tried factory reset? I would suggest flashing the same firmware using odin and see if that makes any difference beforehands.

I've only ever used kies so will have to investigate Odin.
Out of curiosity is there actually a manual way to check for updates through Kies, as I can't for the life of me see how too?
If there is an update, kies would show you the next firmware details below your current one I think.

Hi, I'm laso getting the same issue with I9300XXELLA via Kies.
I've reset, cleared the cache and cancelled any restores but still it happening.
I'm going to downgrade to an older version to see if it resolves this.
I had to do a factory reset in the end and that fixed the problem. Still a bit annoying though as it took me a day to get everything back to how it was and like an idiot I forgot to backup my SMS messages and call history even though I had an app installed that could do it (SMS backup+).
Recommend one from ritesh or something. Works like charm every time I used it so far

Fixed
I wanted to test before posting but I ended up installing 4.1.1 then updating to 4.1.2 without wiping. Very strange.
As an update to this thread the problem came back even after I did a factory reset. I didn't get the unable to download error message but I did keep getting the odd freeze. However after a day of doing it the problem weirdly stopped happening and now 'touch wood' is fine again.
I also wiped cache and reset my phone running stock 4.1.2 on O2. The freezing problem seems to have gone, it's been a couple of days now and no issues. I should say that the only thing I haven't put on yet is Flash, I have a feeling it might be problematic?

Ironically I think the reason my phone was freezing the odd time after I factory reset it was because I didn't have flash installed. After I sideloaded it the phone hasn't had any more issues (this could be a coincidence though).
Ive just ran the eMMC checker that nhariamine linked to and it says that my chip is susceptible to sudden death (VTU00M, revision 0xf1) and is an insane chip.
Does Samsung's most recent firmware address this, an if not can I get them to replace my phone even if it doesn't die?
The second day after I did a factory reset my phone froze once too and it hasn't since then(about a week) I'm still afraid of installing flash. I use Dolphin browser and I can set the user agent to iPad which loads HTML5 versions of videos etc, obviously this only works on sites that have this possibility. I guess I'm trying to wean myself of flash for now.

That it's an insane chip lol I was basically preparing myself for my phone to die. Since wiping my phone it's only froze once in the last week. I still haven't installed flash.

Same problem here.
Uninstalled flash to see if it helps.

I have had this same issue for the past week and have just downloaded the eMMC checker and it seems I too have the phone that is susceptible to SDS.
I have noticed though that the phone only freezes when wifi is switched on though. I dont have any problems with wifi off. I downloaded lagfix from the playstore and ran that and it reduced the freezes from about 20 in a day to 3. I didnt realise wifi was the issue for me at that time though so it could be coincidental.
Updating Roms etc has not worked at all for me. If it keeps up for a few weeks i think i will need to change phones as its way too frustrating for a top tier phone to do this.
Same problem here
I've upgraded OTA few days ago... did a factory rest because the phone was slow... and yesterday the problem appeared out of no where!

4.1.2
Disabling "WiFi Power Save Mode" seems to solve it
1. Open up the Galaxy S3 phone dialer
2. Then dial *#0011#
3. Look for the “ServiceMode” screen and press the left menu button
4. Select “WiFi”
5. You should see that the “WiFi Power Save Mode” button is “ON” – now put it on “OFF”'
Re: Galaxy S 3 keeps freezing every 5 mins (50+ freezes a day)
I took this post from another thread, but it seems to be doing the trick for me too. Especially for those who are not rooted. Big thanks to linnuxxy

I'm having trouble with smart lock working while at home. I set it up a few days ago by adding my home location as a trusted place. It worked ok for a day but now no matter what I do I can't get it to work again. I've been through all the steps to set it up again by making sure it's turned on in trust agents & making sure my home location is added in maps. I have GPS on. I've tried GPS in high accuracy and battery saving mode, restarted phone many times. I just can't figure out why it worked on day one of lollipop install but not anymore. I'm running stock rooted zv8 build that's available in the development thread.
Anyone else experiencing problems with smart lock or have any ideas why I might be having issues with it? :banghead:

I have the same issue, it used to fix itself whenever I left and came back home but that doesn't seem to work anymore. Rebooting the phone seemed to mess it up for me and I had to leave and come back for it to fix itself, when that worked. I'm running the latest Validus so it isn't just an issue with the stock rom.
Good to know it's not just me I guess. Really wish I could get it figured out though, it's one of the best features of lollipop.

I'm not sure, but I think Selinux mode changer fixes that. Set it to permissive.
I can't remember for sure how people fixed it.

Well I downloaded SElinux mode changer and set it to permissive and rebooted. Smart lock still wont work for me. This is really frustrating. I hate to clean install the rom again in hopes of fixing it but I might have to.

Try just wiping cache and dalvik cache it will force everything to restart worse comes to worse I guess you will need to wipe.
When it's not working for you, are you sure your GPS is actually getting a good location fix? Mine stops working randomly.

How can I get rid of Virgin Mobile Launcher?
It atomatically downloads when activated.
I dont like it neither do I want it
Same problem
Seriously this has been a huge pain for me.. since 2 updates ago i think it installed virgin mobile launcher on my galaxy s7 and at least 10-20 times a day i get a notification that only says processes are running and that virgin mobile launcher is using battery. While gaming, like if playing pubg even on game priority mode it still activates and slows down the frame rate tremendously... like enough to where i have to stop playing... i cant uninstall it it looks like so i been searching for a way too... it sucks but so far i disabled all access permissions on my phone for the app under settings/applications it doesnt fully disable it from running automatically but helps a bit and it seems like it doesnt run for as long but we will see i guess... anyone who managed to solve this problem please help.
