Last upgrade original GT-I9300 - Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)

After last original upgrade ive noticed a issue with the space knob when in sms mode. You have to tap it twice to get a space or you can just keep your finger for at least a second before releasing it then you got a space in txt message. This was not the case before upgrading to last ver 4.0.4 Factory reset does not fix it neither indata language settings with only one language selected. Anyone noticed this an have a solution or should I just wait for a new version? Ive talked to the Samsung support an d the mentioned things above was what they told me to do but that did not fixx the problem. Anyone? Thanks in advance

This isn't the GT-I9300 forums....

KF3 Firmware out on KIES

I am not sure if there is a thread already out for this as i couldn't find one on search.
I am a SGS II user in India and i just got a KIES notice that a firmware upgrade is available to KF3.
Is this the same one as what was release on samfirware?

Is your phone Vodafone branded ? Wonder if Vodafone Romania released this firmware ?
Firmware had already been posted in the firmware thread in the dev forum.

As for changes, I have noticed the following till now...
1) The image for background effect, in the display settings has changed
2) The battery life seems to have improved significantly
3) Lock screen display wake lag seems to have come in now
4) Background themes in messaging is no longer there
Will keep you posted as soon as i notice more changes.
Do share anything you guys find too...
i jus tried updating my SGS II to KF3 via KIES it downloaded the update and after decryption of binary data the mobile display is staying on the green android logo and below it downloading ...
WHt do i do .. pls help
The update process gets stuck if KIES is not able to connect to your phone properly. Usually this ends with a popup message saying Update mode couldn't be activated or something like that.
If you do find a blue progress bar increasing slowly below the green android then all is fine, just wait. But if The process is stuck at 0% or an error comes up. Then you can try again by doing a hard reset of your phone and trying to run the update process again. Do not use the recover firmware option in Kies at this moment. The hard reset is necessary as third party launchers and other apps sometimes interfere in the connection to Kies.
To, get out of the green Android download screen and do whatever is stated above, simply remove the battery briefly and start your phone again.
Hope this was helpful. The information i provided is just based on my experience, correct me if i am wrong...

Faced the same problem. It failed the first 5 times. It worked the next time after I rebooted my laptop and the phone before attempting the upgrade.

Thanks for your feedback. But what do you mean by No.3, Lock Screen wake up lag seems to have come in? It was there in KE8 also.
And can you test if the Noise Cancellation On/Off option is included while pressing the Menu key in a voice call? It is not here in KE8.

Yuppp, I know many people faced the lock screen lag issue even in KE8/KE7 but mysteriously, I never had the issue! Where as in KF3, I now get a delay even though its just a couple of seconds.
As for the noise cancellation option during the call, both, the call screen icon as well as the menu option are still absent. :-(

Top of screen and capacitive buttons unresponsive!

Hey everyone, I woke up this morning to find a surprise! My Atrix screen was unresponsive. It took me a couple reboots to figure out that the top part of the screen doesn't respond to touch. Worse yet, none of the capacitive buttons work. So if I get into an app, most of the time, there's no real way for me to get out of it, thus requiring a reboot and more careful selections.
The weird part is, it happened within a span of about 2 hours. I woke up around 5:30AM, checked some emails and texts, and woke back up around 7AM with a buggy screen. It did drop from about 18 inches off the couch last night. But everything was in working order...
Right now I'm in the process of backing up my text messages, because I might have to use a set of them to prove my case in court.
What's the first steps to try to get it back working? Or do you think its a hardware problem(maybe a cable loose)? As far as returning it under warranty goes, I'm rooted and unlocked on Kenn's GB ROM, so that's a no-go.

you are unlocked/rooted/custom rom = no warranty
anyways backup and maybe reflash the rom and see how that goes.
Hopefully you don't need to replace the digitizer... But if you do, there are lots of videos and it's reported to be one of the easier phones to do. Keep that in your back pocket as an alternative to a lengthy and costly court fight over a phone with no warranty!

Thanks guys, I already knew the risks associated with rooting and unlocking. I used an app called SMS Backup+ that allowed me to backup all my sms/mms and it also linked and sent copies to my Gmail.
I'll go ahead and try a reflash
*EDIT*
Did a quick wipe of the phone, and during setup, everything was OK! When blur came back, it was back to the same thing.
Bump...

I would suggest backup all you apps and do a complete wipe of data. I had a similar problem when I first installed Alien. This fixed the issue.

I'm currently doing a Nandroid backup of my phone so i could try flashing to cherrypie hopefully this will solve my problem cuz I'm seriously feed up with it...
do you guy's think this will help? if so any suggestions before i flash? thanks in advance...
I had this problem brand new out of the box. I just took it to the store and they gave me a new one. One other thing i noticed was the FP sensor/button was almost like loose and i had to push it in real far for it to work. Maybe its a stuck FP button...

S3 new user ... So many bugs !!!

Hello all,
I just bought an S3 and updated it to 4.1.1 stock. I like this device but I am very disapointed by how buggy is the stock 4.1.1 ...
I currently own a Xoom running the stock 4.1.2 and never found a single bug using it for months.
I only use my S3 with stock 4.1.1 and already met multiple annoying bugs !
- if I set the Wifi to auto-disable when the S3 goes to the lock screen, then, when Wifi does re-enable, it connects well to the router but I cannot acess to internet. This bug does not exist on the S3 mini running stock 4.1.1.
- the S3 randomly reboot, it rebooted 3 times in about 12 hours.
- the email application has a display problem : the screen flashes black when I scroll an email.
- some apps crash with no reason : stock web browser, stock camera app ...
- the stock browser bookmarks preview is not available : all bookmarks are displayed with a grey icon instead of the web page preview.
- some features in the parameters menu has no effect, they just don't work even when activated : the feature which disables the screen when you're not watching it for exemple, there are some others which did not work but I can't remember which ones.
And as I am only using it for 24 hours I am afraid of discovering some more bugs soon ...
Am i the only one to meet these bugs ?
Is CM10 for S3 less buggy ?
Does anyone know when stock 4.2 should be available for the S3 ?
Thanks
i have 0 problems you mentioned.. try a reset and see if it solve. or just install a custom rom ( you can always return to stock in case of warranty's necessity)
Yes, I already tried to power off the S3. I don't want to use a custom ROM for now, I think for such a high level device I shouldn't have to. I can't understand why so many bugs could be found in less than 24 hours on a stock ROM, this is not serious from Samsung : they waited several months before releasing Jelly Bean for the S3 and finally the ROM is as buggy as an early custom ROM ...
This is a big dispointment for me.
no power off, but a wipe at factory reset
try it!
Settings---> backup and restore--->factory reset ( is the last in list, don't know how is written as i'm using italian language)
Suggest you have a problem and you return the phone either for exchange or refund .
- the S3 randomly reboot, it rebooted 3 times in about 12 hours.
>>> That suggests problem with the phone or an app its not normal behavior .
some apps crash with no reason : stock web browser, stock camera app
>> As above .
Twelve hours and you updated
OTA or Kies update or a self update ????
.. Any of those going wrong could give above symptoms .
Does anyone know when 4.2.1 should be available for the S3 ?
>>> No known date .
jje
I am using the stock 4.1.1 release so I just did the OTA update, everything went fine during the upgrade.
If I am the only one to meet these problems it may be due to hardware issues ... Too bad ...
Not seen any of those bugs at all on ICS nor on JB.
You need to do a complete factory reset.
I don't understand why I would need to do a factory reset : I am just using it for less than 24 hours ...
That's crazy if I already need to do this ... Loosing data and reinstalling everything ... Please, not yet !
I am more an more thinking of installing CM10 ROM, but it seems to have too many issues for now.
I wonder if I just shouldn't get my money back ...
I also suspect you got bad luck and received the only faulty device in store.
Been using mine constantly for 10 days on stock rom without any problems.
Earlier today, I could not wait for 4.1.2 any longer and flashed this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1944035
Been using it also without any problems.
No such problems for me, I expect there was a slight issue when you updated. I would just reflash via Odin and see if that fixes your problems.

because,maybe, in OTA process something is gone wrong ( like some datas of application not compatible or corrupted during the process)
Might want an exchange as you may have a faulty device..
Considering you're having that many problems in such a short period of time, I think you should return the phone and get a replacement. It's clearly a faulty device. If I were you, I wouldn't bother trying to reflash firmware for it or anything, I'd just go straight to wherever I bought it and demand a new one. Good luck with whatever you end up doing.
Never had a random reboot on my s3 running stock. It has happened running custom kernels but that's a different kettle of fish entirely.

So I finally decided to do a factory reset. All my reboots / Wifi problems are gone now. But I still need a more time to judge this as my problems came after a few hours of use. Thanks to all of you for your advices !
Still, the feature wich uses the front camera to power off the display if you don't watch it does not work at all ...
Dude, return it asap. Mine also did that the first week before totally failing and getting stuck in the inicial samsung logo without possible recovery. Very high chances of happening the same to yours. Plenty of "omfg my phone's totally dead" threads around to confirm this, don't be another one.

OK, so this one is a real bug. Not a big deal as I don't want to use it anyway (I was just curious to try it) because I guess leaving the front camera working may decrease battery life and performances.

No problems here, Factory reset (power off the phone, push the volume up + home + power button continuously)
Choose factory reset and you should be okay.

Good to know it solved it.

Home button doesn't wake the Screen some times

hi guys..
Got my new phone at the launching day.. everything runs perfect..
But yesterday and today i encounter a small issue..
please note that i have fingerprint scanner lock on my phone..
when i pressed the home button just to wake the screen, the screen didn't respond.. only the side buttons lid..
the screen remained black after the second press too.. then i pressed the power button once and the screen woke..
the thing was that when i pressed the power button after this incident the home screen game me a third option, apart from emergency calls (left) and alternative password (right), Unlock via Google placed to the middle..
this happened also today twice..
Any suggestions on this ?? did anyone encounter this ??
please note that i didn't use any other locking method except fingerprint scanner and the home button responds fine in any other case.. Thanx..
I randomly get unresponsive touches when trying to open an app in the app drawer folders. Haven't had the home button issue though

I'm having the exact same problem. Very disappointing for a new device. Not sure if I'm going to return it yet. I've tried factory reset and it didn't fix it.
Guy in the shop said he'll have to send it back to Samsung for testing.

im having similar issues while on a call, i cant type in the extension, i touch the number pad and it does nothing. I turn off screen and now it doesnt want to turn back on. Like anything new, there will be a few hiccups, but samsung are usually fast for that first firmware push. I remember for the S4, i got it on launch day and the same day a new firmware was available, the note 3 took about 10 days before that initial firmware that fixed the few most obvious issues. Dont bring it back, just be patient.

Hey man,
Had the same issue with my S5, I think the wait for the fix is easier to handle if you know there are other guys having the same issue rather than having something wrong with your specific device. So imho it'd be great if some other guys would reply just to know it's a common issue.
To me SGS5 is a great phone even with all the rants and reviews against buying it, there will be updates, we just need to be patient.
Thanks for the post!

I can confirm that i have similar issues too.
Sometimes (2-3 a day) the screen is not waking up from sleep state when i press the home or the power button.
The solution is that i need to press the power button to sleep the device and then press again or press the home button to wake up.
Not a big deal but i hope that this issue is not hardware related and a firmware fix will solve it.
Apart from this, it's really a great smartphone.
Hi,
Just a small update, the issue replicates also when using the Samsung S View case, just bought one and I still get the same behaviour as with the home and power button (i.e. only the softkeys light up, the screen doesn't wake up).
I haven't been able to consistently replicate though, but it seems to happen after long sleep periods.
All the best!

Hi !
One question.
Which ROM version do you have ?
The ...ANCE, or ANCF ?
thank you all for your replies.. its good to know that its not my device..
Hopefully with the new update they will fix it..
by the way yesterday i missed a call, do to that problem.. the phone was ringing but the screen was sleeping..
So i decided to chance my ROM, from EUR-Greece to NEE-Norther Countries.. Also did a hard factory reset after that.. Volume up + Power + Home.. Also deleted the cache partition..
I used odin.. No problems found.. and Kies recognizes the phone..
So i will check how this goes and get back to you..

I have the XEH G900FXXU1ANCE...
I was just thinking that the G900FXXU1ANCF is maybe a little bit newer, as the build number is higher (1186806) So that's a different rom for sure.

Hello,I have the same lag?
Anyone else have noticed this?
Yes, I've got the same problem. It took so long the other day that I missed the call completely.

anyone have an solution?
First thing I would do is a hard reset - A pain I know, but doing so you can check whether it is potentially a Hardware issue with multitouch/touch etc.
Once you've done that, if it's still exhibiting the same behaviour check your screen behaviour on touch reactions on normal day-to-day use. There may actually be an app for it. (the Note 3 suffered some touch problems, not saying the S5 has them but have to check to be sure) .
If it is deemed a software glitch and a reset fixes it then you should be OK. - However if it's a touch screen bug I'd suggest returning/swapping it.
I'm more inclined to believe it's a software glitch, and a factory reset will indeed solve the problem.
Oke,thanks
Same issue! Did a factory reset but didn't help. Send it to local service center, they keep telling me there is no issue with the phone and that when it happens I should record a video as evidence of the problem. So much so Samsung warranty! Plus I have encountered ransom reboots when answering the phone.
Totally unhappy with S5. It is terrible. S4 and S3 were very stable.

i did noticed that too..
on mine if you put directly your finger in the circle and drag it works 1st try..
i still didnt have time to hard reset to be sure..
I noticed this too. I find that you have to hold your finger on the green answer and slide slowly. It's definitely a software problem that will hopefully be fixed in an update.
Factory reset makes no difference as done this for another problem I was having.

Don't suppose anyone has found a solution to this yet? Or any alternatives to the stock dialer that might perform better?
I also get a lag between selecting a text field and the keyboard popping up which is very frustrating. Had expected more from a brand new phone
I had this problem at first as well, but after the latest update it fortunately disappeared, I did a full wipe as well.
Same problem here! Partially solved with enabling home button to accept calls....
Same here....its a pain in the ass ?

I disabled the lockscreen animation and that helped making the device more snappy. Here are some more usefull tips http://phandroid.com/2014/04/25/samsung-galaxy-s5-first-14-things-to-do/.
I also have this lag when I'm trying to respond. It only woks on the 2nd attempt.
There's definitely a knack to answering a call, which can be quite annoying. Cannot understand why they didn't just leave it alone. Would rather answer my calls with a quick swipe to the right.

What FW version are you all on? ANG2 seems to have solved it for me!

Until a firmware update, enable answer with home button.
