Reboot once a day? - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

I dunno what's wrong with my phone, im getting reboots at least once a day. Sometimes when using YouTube and other times when streaming. I have it rooted stock. Should i send it back for a replacement or wait for JB update hoping it will go away?

You will wait, and wait, and wait. It will reboot again. If you rooted the phone, there's no more guarantee card. You can flash another firmware, with odin

Send it back, I did the same thing and got a new one. Why would you want to wait when we dont even know when JB is coming out.

Li5 as in the JB leak? if so, yes...go back to h2.

LI5 isn't stock it's a leak, so you're not stock like you said. Why would you install that leak??

The leak will definitely made your phone reboot or spare battery too(if not made by samsung) I don't have any reboots I'm completely stock that only time I did was in the leak with spare battery

I've got a Sprint GS2 E4GT flashed to cricket and I change ROMs all the time. The only thing I lose is 3g data, but only when I flash AOSP roms, and that's easily fixed with a CWM flashable zip (link below) that I flash after ROM and gapps. And mms can be an issue, but if you do a little homework here, it can get fixed. Mod on! :thumbup:

I'm still trying to figure out how to get Cricket MMS working on ICS TW-based ROMs. I've tried numerous fixes, and either it doesn't work, or it works and incoming SMS messages stop coming through. Never really found a true fix for this.... any ideas would be much appreciated!
The only way I can get both working is on AOSP ICS or JB ROMs. I'm not bagging on AOSP (love and appreciate the work these devs put out), but I'm kind of a closet TW fan, too.

The only way I've found to get MMS working is by CricketMMS.apk
Install like a normal APK, then when you want to get MMS open the new program called "Cricket MMS" with a black messaging icon, and download the MMS as normal.
Just what I was looking for. I also had my S2 flashed to cricket....now I want to Root and install the CelstialBody rom. The first time I tried to Root it I got the yellow triangle and had to pay again to get it reflashed. Don't want that again so can anyone help me get some advice/info on a safe way to Root and install this rom....Please. Many thanks in advance. Used to have the cricket mercury....rooted and a nice rom but dropped it and broke.
You do realize the yellow triangle means nothing right? Thats just "voiding" your warranty. It will tip off your carrier that you have had custom firmware on the phone. It doesn't matter because its so easy to reset. Either download triangle away or like me just use a 2$ usb jig. Plug the jig in while phone is off and 5 seconds later no triangle and no binary count.

Deff agree on that one. But alas, i will miss alot of the OG functions from touchwiz on this phone. Although with GN1, they found work arounds for it. Especially S Note.
My plan is to root as late as I can to avoid messing things up. I figure we won't see an update for a few weeks and by then all the bugs that come along with rooting a phone should be worked out. I really enjoy this phone and can, surprisingly, wait on rooting.

I know when I rooted that if I go to check for a software update it says it won't do it on a modified device so I am pretty sure we won't get OTA's through the rooted devices but you can just wait for someone to post the updated OTA and flash that and your good to go!
Or do you still have stock recovery?

You obviously flashed the wrong rom.. JTAG or samsung repair can fix this. I recommend Sending it to samsung cuz its free

Exactly! And the tmobile version is almost exactly the same in terms of hardware so you can flash sgh-i747 for sure, and sgh-t999 you just gotta remember to change the apn if your flashing a tmobile rom. Other then that. You cannot flash international roms or sprint roms or any other variant to this baby. But im sure xda will find a workaround to this. Till then Goodluck and take care of that phone

Wouldn't it be ok if you put in a spare, charged battery, and booted into recovery or bootloader and flashed the right rom?

No, even with a spare battery it is highly doubtful that the device will come back to life. He tried to flash an incorrect ROM to his phone and the phone has shut itself down to prevent physical damage to the circuits. i/e Burn outs. This is one of the MAIN reasons to be sure of what you are doing BEFORE you do it.
Patience is an overwhelming virtue when your thinking to flash a non stock ROM. Read it, understand it, ensure it, then do it but ONLY if you are 100% sure of what you are doing.

Take the battery out.... And sim card/sd cards.... And put it in rice for 24 hours.... If you have not already fried the speaker/circuitry then this might help.... Rice absorbed it weight in water 10 times over... Or something like that.... Give that a try and see what happens

I'm rooted and I checked for the OTA update and their was no update, said I had the latest version. I want to go back to stock rom now because every time I read about installing a custom rom it breaks something else on your phone and you have to wait for a fix for that.
Rooting your phone with custom roms takes too much time and energy. I don't have time to research different roms and play with my phone everyday. Ill just wait for ATT to come out with their updates, So if someone can link me to have to get back to ATT's I317 stock rom that will be great, thanks.
This OP's started a raucous, and does anybody notice that they've miraculously gone AWOL since the 1st post...??? Oh, and 0 (zero) individuals have successfully retrieved this "phantom" update?! Seems like a weak (yet successful) attempt at stirring the pot,
if you ask me...
Just my $.02...
I didn't install it because I was on a custom ROM.
AT&T and using jedi 3.1
If you're on a custom ROM, especially if it's a port, then you shouldn't even bother starting a thread like this.
I am on a custom Rom and also got the update notification, but it is just to 'OK' the software updating service.

Its not hard to root or unroot, although its normal to hesitate on potentially bricking anything as expensive as the GNII.
Just remember, you only have to unroot if you have to take the phone back. 70 bucks on an otterbox has me covered for the occasional slip. As far as flashing concerns, theres generally a way to unbrick everything but lets say the modem (which apparently already has a fix) or system is corrupt, the stock roms and triangle away app are available for flashing and reseting counters respectively.

I've never went through for warranty for a phone I bought outright but for the last company (virgin mobile) when I went for the warranty, I just unrooted the phone and locked the bootloader and it was fine. I don't think they would go all out to check if you rooted the phone. I forgot if they could check or not, but most of the time (IMHO) they wont. Unless they really don't want you to fulfill the warranty.
Well im willing to root lol stock is slow and it lags -_- and I hear some echo. When im on the phone.
Is this rootable?
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
That's rootable. I just re-rooted after the update to LL4 two days ago.
I bought my phone in November, which means it's still under warranty - I've rooted and unrooted and rerooted the phone about 3 times now just to make sure I've got the process down and nothing weird happens to it.
The way I rooted that worked for me was to root using CF auto root through ODIN. Then to unroot, I ran Triangle Away, then unrooted through SuperSU full unroot, and for good measure, I ODIN'd the T-mo stock firmware back on the phone. At the end of that process, I was factory reset back to a clean phone with 0 flash counter and status was normal.
So now I'm rocking an unlocked, rooted, stock rom phone, and I love it.

Option 2 doesn't load a custom recovery (CWM or TWRP). It just roots the phone, but you'll still have stock recovery. If you want a custom recovery, you'll need option 1.Or, flash the custom recovery separately after you do Option 2.

Option 3 only works if you're not on baseband LL4. Once you've updated to LL4, the exynos exploit was closed, so if you're still stock uprooted by LL4, then you'll need to do option 2.
If you're still on valk8, then yeah, you can use option 3.
