Are any of guys having problems with the phone taking 3-5 mins after reboot to show signals? This started after I flashed pics I have flashed different radios but it still takes a lot more time than before. I tried flashing the gb update and still this problem with the new radio that was with the update.
Am i the only one having this problem?
Yeah it's seems like you're the only one...did you wipe everything properly? Try to ODIN and reroot and reflash also. Try different recovery like touch or TWRP

i have tried using different recoveries, different radios, different methods of flashing. i even odined back to stock but the same problem on both ics and gb roms
Questions go in the Q&A section
one last bump in this section otherwise i have no other choice but to believe this is a hardware problem and not related to software
If you pay attention to the threads after you flash a from it usually says to wait 10 minutes I use this rule of thumb with anything I flash after reboot

Hey guys, I need some help,
I have been using CleanGB v1.1.2 for a long time. Recently, I've been having a huge problem. Whenever I use ANY ROM, after about ten to twenty minutes, my phone just becomes *slow* as molasses. It's unnerving. It could be at the bootloader screen... it could be in the ROM itself... but if I'm using ANYthing but the stock ROM with everything unrooted, the phone just goes slow-as-*&#^-as-*&&& and I have to pull the battery out after ten to twenty minutes.
Any ideas?
My ROMs aren't corrupted. I've tested them all and I've tried installing and rooting from different computers with the same problem. I have tried CleanGB v.1.1.2 and People's 2.2.1 and Thunderhawk 5.1. All have the same problem after ten to twenty minutes.
EDIT - I should add that I have rooted (even as of today) other people's Epic 4Gs and none of them have had the same issue as mine, so I know there's something going on with my phone, in particular.
The only thing I can think may be doing this is that I use the CWM flash + the FC09 rom method to root my phone. Maybe I should be rooting it using Odin as I used to do back in the day.
When I go back *from* the root to the unroot, I always re-partition and time reset in Odin with a stock ROM. No problems after that.

Sadie, I root by odining cwm with auto reboot unchecked, pop battery out and in, 3 finger to cwm and flash ROM of choice. It definitely sounds like a strange issue.

Hey KG,
Yeah, I think I need to go back to performing the rooting procedure from ODIN. I just can't seem to find the links to that online. God, I've turned into an ultra-n00b again.
What do *you* think is the best way to root using ODIN? I think the problem is that I've been rooting using the easier, flash-to-CWM in Odin and then flash the rooted ROM from CWM. I think I need to do it all from ODIN and repartition at that level.
Epic Touch or S3 here I come! LOL!

This sounds like a rogue app sucking up your memory. Does it happen on stock with all your apps restored?
It happens with every Rom I use. When I flash my phone back to stock the problem goes away.

Is it happening with your new phone as well? I recommended flash the rom of your choice do not install any apps for a day or two. If all is fine install one app a day till you find which app. My guess would be a app that you use that needs root because it doesn't happen on stock. Just my 2 cents.

Okay recently i've been trying to un-root my phone completely by installing the stock rom from odin and when i tried to do that my phone would just not work so while it was soft bricked/Continous Samsung Flashing i decided i would download Cwm again and just try and re-flash another rom just to get the phone to open up and i did just that than when i did my phone is now wacky and seems sluggish and my phone is also begging to crash can anyone help me ?
Btw i attempted to un-root my phone because i wanted to play puzzles and dragons Jpn Version which requires no root any help would be amazing thanks
Bump!
Okay
I find it impossible to believe 75 people have read thsi and not one had responded
How long did you wait for the stock to load? It takes longer then a custom Rom. Which stock Rom did you flash? Was your downloaded file corrupted? Try re-downloading the file making sure it is the proper t mobile, koodo or telus Rom. Hope this helps.

I don't find that impossible to believe...you're not very specific in the op. If your ROM is lagging you need to specify which ROM you're using...what did you wipe when flashing...what recovery version are you using...

so I don't know how it happened
but over the past couple weeks I've had a lot of trouble with my phone
I didn't notice any issues until I flashed Skynote
it started out as just my computer not recognizing it when connected via USB
but problems have escalated further now
for some reason if I try flashing touchwiz roms 1/2 the time TWRP crashes while doing it and if it doesn't it constantly hangs up during flashing(it took me almost 1/2 hour to flash ultimate internation rom last night)
If I get a rom running the phone is constantly hanging when going through the settings menu.. or if an app is installing it will lock up totally for like 5 seconds
I've formatted thru twrp, I wipe the system every time. I've tried countless factory resets
nothing seems to be helping
anyone have any idea what might be going on?
Probably something corrupt or misplaced. Flash stock to using odin. That should fix it

I have faced similar issues twice after changing a rom. The only way back to stability was to odin a stock firmware on to the note II and then to re-root, re-install a custom recovery and reflash the rom.
You can use this thread to get the files to odin back to stock: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2275844
Give it a try. . . it helped me!
thanks for the help guys
seems to be running well on stock......I'm gonna put it through it's paces for a while before I get my hopes totally up though
I think I'm just gonna keep it like this until we get some 4.2.2 touchwiz roms
hopefully with 4.2.2 coming out in the coming days the wait wont be too long

Try CWM recovery, not twrp....I never use twrp, , always hearing issues with people using that recovery method...Some phone's just don't like it..lol
And like Greg stated...most phones need a thorough cleaning every now and then to get the bugs out.
With TWRP its always good to have the latest version... it can really make a difference

I prefer using CWM to flash ROMs on my device. I Always had problems flashing zips on my phone using TWRP recovery. It gave me a headache that I had to use the emergency firmware recovery in kies to revert to stock and reset my flash count. Do try flashing in CWM recovery instead and see what's the result.

Hi all! I'm new here so please refrain from flaming me...
I'm no noob to flashing the rom on my phone as I have successfully carried out the procedure multiple times. However, on this occasion things didn't go as planned. I began the procedure to update my S3 via odin to the new firmware that was released yesterday, however when the process got to 'system.img' the status bar just hung in the same place (just past the beginning of the bar) for a good 20 minutes... I panicked and unplugged my phone... BAD MOVE. I now get the error message "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." and the only thing I can do is put my phone in odin mode, which I did, and tried to install the stock jelly bean rom, the exact same thing happened as before...
What should I do?
Thanks in advance

I don't believe we have that for our model.
If you can still get download mode there's hope, maybe not a lot in this case, but there is some.
Try to flash cwm or twrp via odin. If successful boot recovery and try to flash a stock rom. Hopefully it only screwed up the system partition. ...
Never unplug till odin says either PASS, FAIL, or RESET. You may end up really lucky this time. If its taking a long time, just leave the room.

Wow! Ok, I am glad you got it working again, but you took a huge risk flashing that. Luckily its just the kernel aparently, but you should never flash anything from the international forum. More hard bricks have occured from flashing international stuff than anything else.
Just pointing this out so you or others reading this don't take it as meaning they can flash international roms and mods.
Glad it did work out for you though!

Thank you for the info! I keep that in mind so I don't run into any other problems. Now, I'm deciding whether I should try to install that firmware that caused the problem again... Even though I know what to do in the event that odin hangs, the results may not be the same... What do you think?
On a side note: It seems I only text messages and app settings, luckily I backed up my phone with Kies a few days ago so it's all good

Before you do, check under the battery so you are certain of the phone model. There are 3 variants if the T999, and they cannot flash each others firmware.
Also, I don't believe you mentioned which firmware you tried, or I missed it, but which was it?
And i said it before, but do not unplug during flash. It may seem to take forever if it hangs, but it will eventually Fail out if it does.

Ahhhh, well, I know now why it didn't brick your phone when you flsshed thst kernel! You do hsve the correct phone for that. So you will need to reverse what I told you and do not flsdh anything from this forum! Sorry for the confusion, I assumed you had a T999.
It sounds like you have the right firmware, but I know very little about the international models. They are very different than ours. You should definitely go to the International forum from here on. Very little info you get here will be relevant and you cannot use any of our roms or otherwise.
Good luck!

Heres the back story. I flashed a rom that wasnt meant for my version of the GN2. I was excited for it and I didnt read properly. So because of that I lost my IMEI, and the phone had no cellular connection. I fixed that with the toolkit and flashing a new modem. Then I re-flashed the ROM I was using before, CleanROM ACE 5.0.
Forward to now, Anytime I try a new rom, I can get them to work until the first reboot then they bootloop. Ive done full wipes, formats, everything and they all lock up after the first reboot. The only thing Ive been able to get to work is the original CleanROM. Im not sure if Im doing or not doing something wrong, any ideas?
Only one idea ...or rather a question...
Upon the repair of the device ...did you do a full return to stock using the factory shipped rom ???
You should try ...as it will map the partitions properly ...
My thinking is...that despite your efforts ...something within your partitions is still out of whack ...
The flashing of a rom not meant for this device can be particularly damaging as you already know....and may have left a portion undone ...g

I used the toolkit to reflash a stock image. The only thing I havent tried is deleting partitions. Does the TWRP offer that ability?
Don't delete partitions ...
You need them...
Run the return to stock method again....
And I mean fully stock ...with the 3e recovery ...then root again with CF autoroot ..and then ODIN flash your TWRP recovery..
Then we can attempt the different Roms...
And remember ...
Use a PC for downloads ...not the device ...g
