[Q] Got angry and messed up phone, desperate need of help please - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Phone: Rooted Samsung Galaxy s3
Rom: Cyanogenmod 10.1.2
Using Twrp not CWM
It all started with the freezing problem during gaming only, all games I would play would freeze after 2-20 mins of play time, but it would only freeze for 2-5 mins then start working again, but then it would freeze again soon after. It got worse and worse after a few days went by, started freezing more often. I've tried researching and tried everything suggested. Tried Lagfix trim app, Dummy File Generator app, flashing to a older version rom that I did not have problems with before, nothing worked. I pretty much got pissed off and went into TWRP recovery mode and wiped everything and forgot to have a backup. Now I don't have anything and the phone is not rooted anymore so the phone says. I am pretty much a noob at this stuff. I have no clue what to do now since I have no rom to flash and when I try to restart the phone is says I have no OS system..What do I do?!? Please HELP!

From what ive read in the past u need to flash a stock rooted rom. U can find that here.... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1910947. Just download put on ur sdcard and flash.

When you play games next time make sure all the setting for saving battery life is turned off, it helps the phone perform better. Youtube qbking77 for a good video tutorial about getting back up and running and other things.

I've got all the other problems sorted in out now. Phone is actually working, but the freezing still persist. I don't have any power saving apps on and I'm going to try dummy file generator again.. I've also downloaded the app brickbug, but it said my phone is not affected. I pretty much don't know what's wrong, the for the suggestions everyone. Anyone have a clue on why I'm freezing when only playing games?

Did ur game update recently when all this started? I know there was a very good app that use and it updated once and just started force closing everytime it opened. Maybe uninstall any updates u have for that game. If its all games its probabaly kernal or rom related inwhich u will have to talk to a bigger brain than I lol

Try disabling Hardware Overlays by checking the box in Developer Options about 3/4ths of the way down in the list and see if that prevents the intermittent freezing.

Yeah, no updates.. It's for all games. I'm still running cm10.1.2 with ktoon kernel.. It seems to have gotten better but still freezes. I've tried everything that I have researched besides a different rom and kernel. I want to stay on this rom and kernel though, besides the freezing in games, the phone runs incredibly smooth and fast.

Ok so still having major issues with the new Go Play Market. My apps are not showing up and can't update any of my apps! So trying to keep a old market installed. That fixes the issue but it always updates to the newest market which is broken. And Freezing the Market Updater with TB. Is not working.still updates. Seems it has no affect on the market now. Wtf?? Anyone got any ideas? It been like this for like a week! please help me out! Thanks a million!

Try the Market Update helper in Titanium Backup.
I'm not having any issues running DW 2.1.5. All my apps downloaded fine and market prompts me for updates.
What rom are you using and have you considered full wiping then reflash? Maybe that will stop that..

Google play movie freeze

I purchased 3 movies through the Google Play store. I can download them or stream them. My Nexus 7 will play the movie fine but my galaxy s3 will only play the first 9 seconds. The phone just stops at 9 sec then it will kinda "boot loop" that 9 seconds until I exit. Not an actual boot loop, just the best way to describe the problem. What can I do to fix this? I want to play movies on my phone while away from my Nexus 7. The phone is rooted running stock 4.0.4 I747UCLEM
Thanks
I have the same issue. I'm running rooted Nostalgia 7.5 UCALH1 ROM
I also have this issue
In just guessing, but it may be because your rooted.
My tablet is rooted but doesn't do this
I also have this problem. Tried to watch the walking dead in hd on the google play movies app. At 9 seconds it goes into loop until i stop it. Any kther ideas besides that we r rooted? I would really like to watch the new walking dead lol.
Thanks
I am also having this problem on Jellybean. Downloading my movie now to see if it's just with streaming.
Downloading it made no difference.. Still crapped out at 9 seconds
I'm having the same issue. Thought maybe because I was rooted but that gives you an error message and wouldn't let you actually start streaming. Works great on my Nexus 7 but I get exactly 9 seconds in as well.
Are you on a DeOdex'd ROM too? I have not seen it on an odex'd rom or CM10... Just DeOdex'd TouchWiz.

I'm on JellyBombed v11 and have the same 9 second freeze. I even restored back to the stock rom (still rooted) and i got the freeze.
Is it confirmed that CM10 based roms don't have this issue? Thx for the help, glad i'm not alone in this.
I have this problem as well. Galaxy S3 T999. Currently running Wicked ROM v7. It's a TW based ROM. I just uninstalled it for now. Luckily all I got were some free TV episodes, and didn't actually sink any money into it.

Was there ever a solution to this problem? Its made its way over to the S4.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
An official one, no. However I do not have the issue anymore. The only thing that I can think of is that I am using a slightly modified kernel by freeza found in his deodexed MD4 thread. There might be a list of tweaks done to the kernel in there. Or try asking him.
Hope this helps!

Same issue...
Has anyone got any more info on this? I have the same issue with a sprint s4.
I'm also seeing something similar on an M919 S4. I do think it may be kernel-related, because I didn't see it on stock; I only got it once I tried to flash a Google Play Edition rom (mrvirginia's "Virgin Rom," which does use a custom kernel). But it also seems a bit idiosyncratic, since there's only one other person in the thread about that rom who has mentioned it, which suggests it's not a widespread problem.
My problem is slightly different than the one described here, though; it still plays to precisely nine seconds and then freezes, but rather than a "boot loop" (which to me suggests it keeps restarting from the beginning and playing to that point), mine screeches to a halt, with the screen not moving apart from a few graphical glitches, and making terrible noises. The "nine seconds" aspect makes me pretty certain it's a fundamentally similar problem, though.
As a side note, I sort of wish Google had chosen a better name for the app than "Google Play Movies," because it's seriously difficult to search for this bug with such generic terms.
I'm currently having the 9 second issue as well, ever since I updated to MJA on my Sprint S4. I've used the stock kernel and KTkernel, still the same issue (I'm currently sitting stock, rooted). Hopefully the update to MK2 might alleviate the bug.
Update: The MK2 update fixed the issue with Play Movies.

Play Store Issues

I recently switched back to using Novella Dos Rom on my Galaxy Note 2, it is a TW based rom. Anyways after setting up and installing around 15-25 applications last night, I went to install some more stuff this morning and I keep getting different errors sometimes 491 could not install error and some times just a package file invalid error and sometimes it just gets stuck at a percentage number. This happens randomly too its not like every app wont install and sometimes it doesn't and after installing something else then coming back it installs. Its really annoying.
I also don't know if this is related but Facebook has been telling me I am low on storage space and that this may cause issues running the app, which doesn't make sense since 9.5GB Free on the Device and a completely empty 16GB SD card inserted.
Sorry for spamming but now I'm getting a different error "Google Earth" could not be downloaded due to an error. (905)
I found your answer just from Googling insufficient storage error! Your answer if here as this is what I did too get mine fixed also. FYI

Nope sadly it doesn't work
Now I'm getting a 495 error too
Just to clarify the storage space issue error comes from within the facebook app and it was just a one time thing...
Currently most of my apps are installing now but google earth and retroarch are both being really stubborn and just giving errors.

You should be on the latest play STORE! Right? But the lucky thing..That help me after I rebooted then tried again and I was able to get what I wanted. Only other thing you could try is clearing the cache & data POSSIBLY. Might help.
But at least your able to get most of your apps!

Try deleting the app cache first. Then, delete the Google account and add it back. That should fix it for you.

Indeed. ..
This problem persists across devices and carriers. .
It seems the current version of Google services has a bug. .
But earlier today I ran and loaded rootbox 4.2 with neak kernel and had no issues with the newer play store version. ..
But immediately after a nandroid restore to rooted stock it failed again. ..
Not that this rom kernel combo is any sort of fix...but it was worth mentioning if users need a temp bypass. ..until Google gets it fixed. ..g

CyanogenMod 10.2 Nightlies Discussion Thread

As the title states, this thread was created for the sole purpose of discussion on CM 10.2 nightlies.
Discuss bugs, ask questions, discuss apps, describe your experience and anything else.
TWRP 2.6.x is confirmed to work for these nightlies.
Cwm 6.0.3.6 is confirmed thanks to polarbe4r
To those new or unaware :
So yesterday as of August 13th, CM has been releasing nightlies for Android 4.3.x for our D2tmo. Go to get.cm and click on D2tmo to download them.
Please don't forget to download the latest GAPPS for 4.3.0 from goo.im/gapps and keep in mind the latest GAPPS function only on the latest 4.3.0 current release.
My experience with it so far : I've had very bad run ins with CM on the d2tmo personally in the past. Audio bugs, bad battery, random bootloops occasionally. I would however like to report the nightlies seem stable, smooth and decent on battery. So far with the exception of Focal the New camera app, I have not noticed a problem, luckily the 4.3 AOSP camera is included in. I recommend sticking to stock kernel for the time being. I tried a couple of third party kernels and had some restarts and graphic bugs. So please, if you have tested the nightlies yet, please leave some feedback for the user and the developers.
Please use the following GAPPS for these 10.2 night lies :

I'll hopefully have enough time this weekend to fiddle with my phone and try whatever nightly is up at the time. One thing I'll say right now is that I'll setup everything like I have it right now. Might lose a few mods I recently got but no big deal, all reversible. I hope there's no problems restoring from 4.3 to a 4.2.2 CWM backup.

You mean your backup is stored on an external SD card?
I had a screen of death while listening to play music and skipping a track with holding the volume up feature.
Dirty Upgraded from Nightly 8-13 to Nightly 8-14. Upgraded Gapps as well. FC'd for the first reboot on Phone (Dialer was not present from 8-13).
Used all day on Dirty Upgrade without issue after a few reboots. Play Store could not update any software and Helium could not take a backup.
Got home and Clean installed 8-14 and Gapps. Zero problems after install on typical applications. Rebooted for Google to Restore Apps from Backup. File Manager can not display /storage/emulated/0 or /storage/emulated/legacy after enabling root mode. Had to use /mnt/shell/emulated/0 and /mnt/shell/emulated/legacy (Yes I know they are the same location, but just for thoroughness I used both).
Using Terminal Emulator you are able to see that /storage/emulated/legacy exists, but /storage/emulated/0 does not.
Code:
su
cd /storage/emulated
ls -a

Boot Looping

Was this a problem on the first Note tablet? As I get to installing a lot of apps, over 500 is what I have, I've found that the tablet is going through an infinite boot loop. I'm talking to a Samsung rep online now about it. I've tried taking out the sd card, putting it back it, etc. It appears that some are going through this too with the Galaxy Note 3.

Updating my status. Through my own research, instead of trying to install all 500 at once, I've taken a more modest approach. I'm installing apps 4 at a time, letting it finish, powering down, then starting back up. It's working. I can get to my home screen without problem now. Maybe 500+ apps was too much of a strain for the file system to endure.

it would be pretty stupid if that's the case. it would seem a bug if anything, and serious for some. installing that 500th (or whatever the breaking point would be) at the wrong time could be disastrous.
perhaps we'll her more about it this weekend when the rest of us start getting ours. only i don't really have 500 apps that i want installed, lol.

500 is a big number for most people. i know some people who barely have 10 apps downloaded. i've got quite a bit but definitely not 500...
Yes I would agree with that as well, I don't know that I would have a advocate having 500 applications I think I may have 30 or 40 at the most

Please keep in mind that some apps my not be fully compatible with android 4.3 yet.
Mine goes through the Samsung animation 5 times... I'm not sure at what point started doing that. I have around 100 apps and I feel very lazy to reset it and install a few apps at the time to see if that fixes the problem... Anyway I wonder what the apps have to do with the booting?
For reference I'm using: Nova Launcher, Swiftkey and not rooted yet.
Maybe a future update will fix this....?

DO NOT do this!! I did this on my own note 10.1 2014 after a bootlooping issue caused by corrupt files on my sd card (or so Ive theorized), and after doing so, my software showed as CUSTOM in the settings, and would not let me access the update servers. It was only after restoring the firmware via kies (a long and involved process, though less than odin, which probably would work too) that I was able to get it back to "Official". So unless you want to go through what I did, DO NOT factory reset via recovery. Id recommend doing everything else possible to fix this first.
