Help! My phone is freezing / locking up and rebooting several times a day now!
I successfully did the stock AT&T Jellybean update this week when it became available via Kies.
I had no issues with the initial upgrade…it seemed to go smooth.
After a day…or a few hours….I can’t remember…I did start noticing a few issues with Touch Wiz closing or freezing and some other apps misbehaving. I can’t even remember what exactly the issues were.
I was also having some other quirky issues with the phone on stock ICS before the JB update…so I have been meaning to do a factory reset and reinstall everything.
So with the phone being even more flakey with JB I went ahead and did a factory reset with my new JB setup.
After a few hours setting up the phone with all my apps, settings, etc I noticed two issues. Swiftkey would not remain selected as my default keyboard and AT&T Voicemail viewer would not retain any of my account settings after a reboot.
After some Googling I learned that this is a know issue with JB 4.1.1 for many apps…they don’t quite install properly and something happens during shutdown that causes the settings to be lost. The only work around seemed to be:
Root Phone
Install apps
Backup with Titanium or other backup program
Uninstall apps
Restore apps – then they somehow install properly and work
I did this…first time rooting the phone….and the root and work around worked perfectly first time.
But after continuing to install apps and tweak my phone the real problems have now begun.
The phone is completely freezing at random times…in any app or in the TW launcher. It seems to just sit there frozen until I hold down the power key long enough to force a reboot or take out the battery.
There are no force closes or other error messages and I have found no other pattern to the freezes.
So now the phone is almost totally useless. It may work for a few hours…or just a few minutes before locking up. Worse…I have no way to know this has happened if the phone is in my pocket.
I did another full factory reset using the Recovery Mode and reinstalled everything again and am having the same issues.
I fear the root somehow corrupted my phone or one of my apps is totally incompatible with JB but I have to many (~70) it will be very hard to tell which one.
The other issue I am having is the battery is draining in just 4-5 hours even with light use.
Coincidentally….4G LTE was just turned on in my area this week so that would be a factor in both the battery drain and maybe even the lockups. I have a Microcell at home…wondering if 4G LTE and my Microcell are not behaving.
There are just too many variables with a new ROM (JB), fresh rooting of the phone plus recovery app installed, plus 70+ apps, plus new 4G LTE, plus my Microcell.
I don’t know what to try next to get the phone stable or to get the battery use reasonable.
Please post any and all suggestions….
One thing I’d like to clear up or eliminate is the root issue…is there any way that is the cause of my phone’s current problems?
What a mess of a week! Instead of the total awesomeness of JB, 4G LTE, and the fresh experience of using a rooted phone...all happening for me in the same week...I get a total headache and useless phone. Sure hope I can dig my way out of this.
Thanks for reading my long post!
I'd say to flash stock rooted official jellybean from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1968625 i'd then do a Hard Factory reset *2767*3855# then you can install apps that are compatible with jb but not the app data and see how the phone is. also, for signal issues, try using a different modem located herehttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1831898

Thanks for the ideas....had not heard of the "Hard Factory reset *2767*3855#"....how is that different from a factory restet initiated from winthing Android or from the recovery program?
Also - is there any quick / easy way to know which of my apps are supposed to be compatible with JB?
Sure will be a pain to reconfigure everything again.
Should I be safe installing my apps via Titanium backup restores? (as long as I don't restore data)
Also - what about restoring my IMs and call logs from Kies? Is that safe?

Do you happen to have juice defender? I had the same problem, and noticed it only happened when I was on battery. I uninstalled that and it stopped rebooting.

Nope....juice defender...
And my phone doesn't really seem to be rebooting....just freezing up. I have to force it to reboot by holding down the power button for 10 seconds.
About to try a fresh factory ROM install (pre-rooted) and a hard factory reset.
Then I'll add my apps back very slowly to see....
What a pain in the you know what!

Well...I did all that...and no luck. Still freezing up.
I could not actually do the exact *2767*3855# reset...the phone would not respond to that command. So I used CWM to format the SDCard and also did a factory reset there.
Reinstalled my apps carefully and without data restore...boom....phone is locking up all the time again after maybe 12 hours of good operation.
Either this build of JB is not working on my phone or it somehow got fubar'ed during that first upgrade.
My plan now is to restore to factory ICS un-rooted....reset the flash counter if possible....and return the phone under warranty if possible.
Any recommendations for this?
Got replacement phone - still freezing up!

HELP!!!! Please!!!!!
I did a warranty RMA and got a new (refurbed) phone from AT&T. I set it up with stock ICS and it seemed to work fine. I installed CWM without rooting via ODIN and did a Nandroid backup. I then used CWM to load TWRP recovery and did a backup with that.
Then I loaded the stock JB room with root. Tweaked the phone and app settings a little and things seemed to be fine for 1/2 a day. I reinstalled TWRP since the ROM flash replaced it with stock recovery. Things still seemed fine.
So...with JB rooted and seeming to work fine....I booted into Recovery (TWRP) and did a fresh Nandroid backup since the phone was finally all configured and working (apparently).
Well after rebooting from the backup...the phone is acting all crazy again. It seemed to crash my home WiFi network....had to reboot my router. Now the phone freezes or locks up any time I disable WiFi or change WiFi settings.
I am just cursed with the GS3!
Two separate phones with stock AT&T JB with root...one running CWM Touch and the new one running TWRP and both lock up or freeze all the time.
Should I give up and try custom ROMs? Give up on rooting?
I want TouchWiz for SBeam and some of the Samsung apps that I like better than stock...would rather just stay stock with Root.
What can I do to get this phone stabilized with root and JB???
Just did another test...
If I leave my house and walk a couple hundred yards away...as soon as the phone finally loses the WiFi signal and disconnects it locks up.
Seems like all my issues (with first phone maybe too) are tied to WiFi.
Is no one else having WiFi issues with JB? Could it be tied to rooting somehow? For instance...maybe the stock rooted ROM has different modem or WiFi drivers...or different kernel than the actual stock JB ROM I first used via Kies update?

I've got the KIES JB Update, & rooted. I am not experiencing any of the issues your having. It might be helpful if you could post a list of apps & widgets that you have installed, If you have frozen or removed stock files.
It sounds like you may be experiencing some app conflict issues.

I have not frozen any apps or done anything I would consider advanced or risky....
I tried running with what I thought would be just "safe" apps....no luck. I've got most all of my apps installed and did a Titanium Backup so here is a dump of all the user apps backed up:

Having the exact same problems as you. Please help. I'm also considering giving the phone back at Best Buy and having them give me a new one with ICS and leaving ICS on there. My steps are very simple. I had the stock ICS ROM from AT&T and I used Kies to upgrade to stock JB. That's it, nothing else, no rooting, nothing.
I am seeing exactly the same behavior, when wifi switches to 4G or even sometimes when bluetooth comes on, etc I will see the lockup and hang. Have to hold down power button to restart. But I don't think this is completely the issue, because even if I turn off wifi, bluetooth and only leave on 4G, then I still will see random reboots, but a lot lot less frequent. Also, I have always had 4G and I see the battery only lasting 4-6 hrs, so I think this is normal with 4G. I saw this even with ICS.
I have not done any factory reset or anything - I would assume if you use the Kies s/w to update and it leaves your files and apps on there, then it should just work. But I will try the factory reset once I backup my contacts, etc.
I'm a little shocked that people are having this problem with a newly released ROM.

After several re-flashes to stock JB with root and still more freezing with WiFi, etc....I gave up and loaded a custom ROM this morning.
I'm running BlackJelly...and after about 8 hours it seems be be running great so far. It is TW JB-based...and having very few issues with it. Battery is poor but it takes a few days of charging and use I guess to get the battery / phone / ROM calibrated. AT&T Visual Voicemail is not working and the phone shows H instead of 4G LTE...but I'm sure I can fix those issues by searching through the hundreds of thread pages on that ROM is this forum.
Give it a try before you switch to ICS or trade in the phone. You can always flash back to stock un-rooted and use Triangle Away to reset flash counter.
Good luck!
Still stuck with crashing phone!

Well...after over a week of trying it out....BlackJelly did not help me. Still had freezes / lock-ups.
I can't tell if the phone is re-booting itself or just re-launching the Launcher (I us Nova but tried stock and Apex too). The phone appears to re-boot on it's own but the up-time under status would not reset...making it seem like not a re-boot but a launcher reload or something. Pretty much same issues as with stock JB.
So I gave up and tried CM10.1 nightlies....and wow....crashing all the time now. Whereas stock JB and BlackJelly seemed to crash when I left my home or left any WiFi network or even just when I disabled WiFi while connected....CM10.1 crashes all the time while at home seemingly at random. I can get 5 hours of great use...then have it crash 5 times in an hour. Seems to crash a lot in the settings menus.
This is with my second (replacement) phone. I am just cursed!
How do I effectively use a LogCat app or something to find out what apps or services or whatever are crashing my phone? Help!
Read through this whole thread and no where did you ever mention clearing your cache. Clear your system cache/davlik cache and reboot.

Sorry...should have mentioned that. I've cleared the system and davlik cache many times...before and after flashing. I've done full system wipes / resets, formatted my SD card...everything I can think of.
I either have a rouge app that I seem to install right away after clean flashes....or a rouge Wifi router in my house that messes up my phone even when I leave and use other networks...or a rouge ATT&T microcell that does the same....or a rogue LTE area in West Michigan....
Or a second bad phone sent from AT&T. But no form of JB seems to work for me no matter what. Guess I could run a clean install with no apps for several days...and then add in an app a day for the next 2+ months until I find the bad app...if that is even the case.
So bummed with this mess!

Interesting....that might be what I was experiencing....but I never thought that was it....did not notice that cause/effect.
I gave up and went back to stock / rooted ICS / TW...version LH9. Loaded it yesterday and have had 24 hours of great use...no issues.
I miss JB and Google Now...but at least my phone works!
I'm not sure for stock JB but on other ROMs, you could try changing your governor and scheduler.

When on CM10.1 I tried bumping the minimum CPU speed to 484 and 5xx (can't remember the actual numbers)....and the maximum CPU speed to to 14xx and 13xx (again, can't remember)....and this did not help.
Not sure if that is what you meant tho.
Anyway...I gave up and went back to rooted stock ICS (LH9) and the phone is working great. I've given up on JB for now. I will wait for a new major JB release from Samsung before I try again.

Q: The phone keeps freezing when I go into landscape mode.
A: This has been covered many times in the thread, but to reiterate: If you are using the AOSP lockscreen you must disable "Ripple Effect" in Settings -> Lock Screen -> Lock Screen Options
Hi everyone, this is somewhat complicated and il try my best to describe what happened.
My device is a i747m (rogers).
I was running CM10.1 (running gapps-jb-20130812 and CWM recovery 6.0.4.3) for a long time, tried to update to 10.2.
(i messed up on 2 things.I don't think i cleared neither of the cache or data and also didn't have proper gapps which would be 20130813).
After installing 10.2 through recovery, it would just stay in the boot Cynogen booting logo.
i restarted into recovery, since my old CM10.1 zip was still there, i installed that instead, but same thing happened, it would just stay at booting logo.
I had made a nandroid back up from before all of this, and so i wiped data, dalvik cache, cache, formatted system, and i recovered into that, which was a stock 4.1.2 rooted (rogers).
However, nothing worked, only WiFi. I couldn't make any phone calls, send/receive messages, or get data.
I then used ODIN 3.07 to flash the new stock 4.3 rooted (rogers). WiFi worked as before, but i still couldn't make any phone calls, send/receive messages, or get data.
i then re-installed the latest recover 6.0.4.5, and installed paranoid android 4.4.2 and gapps for this version. But still nothing, so i went back to the stock 4.3 rooted.
4 months ago, when i made the nandroid back up, i also made an IMEI back up as well (i did not do a full imei/NV/EFS/IMSI/data backup) , i only had my IMEI backup, so i wrote using "NV items reader writer" the IMEI back onto my phone, and now i can recieve/send messages, and get phone calls and make phone calls. wifi also works.
But my data is stuck in Edge, its extremely slow, takes 10min to download a 15mb file.
so far:
-The APN settings are correct
-my IMEI number in settings menu, matches the one on the back of my phone.
-network mode is GSM/HSPA/LTE
-i have installed the latest modem for i747m through CWM recovery and also tried slightly older versions.
i am pretty much lost and i dont know what i should do.
-rogers has told me to use kies and perform backup and then recovery, apparently that will factory reset my phone.
-should i simply use kies to install the latest 4.3?
-does anyone have the imei/NV/EFS/IMSI/data files? or the full NV file?
-should i install CWM recovery and wipe everything that i can? and re-install stock rooted 4.3?
-should i use QPST to fix my IMEI? <-- dont know anything about this, noticed a few threads.
i have used these threads in all my rooting and so forth.

please someone help me out, I dont know how to fix this.
thank you for reading this long and complicated problem.
same problem, ive spent every minute working on it for a week
I went through from 4.1.1 to 4.1.2, no problems, phone ran fine after update. Then went to 4.3, same thing. The phone was running fine so I booted back into recovery and removed Knox as well as manually rerooted by flashing SuperSU. Rebooted after that and still no problems, phone was running great. I then make a backup so I have a restore point of stock 4.3, rooted, and without Knox. I then go on and try to flash Dandroid and get a status 7 error and the phone was acting up after I rebooted.
At this point I go back to my backup and simply restore it and reboot again. The phone boots up, so that's a good thing. The problem is the GApps will not run and it continuously has a pop-up notification. The phone is rendered unusable like this. I got lucky once and was able to try and launch ROM Manager to see if fixing permissions would work, but it also closed. I tried flashing a 4.3 GApps package with no success and even tried reflashing the 4.3 update but got a status 6 error.
I'm at a loss here, does anyone have any ideas on this?
Not sure if this will help much, but even when plugged in via USB my computer will not recognize the device. The S3 states that it is connected and it does show up in Device Manager, it just won't show up as any kind of readable memory.
Trying to ADB sideload a rooted stock 4.3 ROM now. Any advice at all would be a help.
EDIT: I took a video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJ-eaQ_9mVI) of the problem so everyone can see what I'm talking about and I also found a fix.
I'm not sure what was causing it, but after a solid day of researching it online the closest thing I got was resetting app preferences and also trying to clear any data of Google apps. This seemed to sometimes slow the popups down for me or create a longer gap before they just came right back in full force. So, going off that small success I had managed to navigate my way over to Settings -> Accounts -> Backup and reset -> Factory data reset and ran that. The first boot after that took a very long time, I'd say a solid twenty minutes but it did work. No more error and everything has been going smooth for me since. A restore of apps with Titanium Backup also did not bring the problem back up again, so the device seems to be good as new again.
I apologize if any of these is out of line, I just thought I would follow up with a solution in case anyone else has this problem and can't seem to fix it. Maybe this will help them.
Hi, I flashed CM 10.2 on my Galaxy S4, and I used titanium backup to restore all my apps, only apps I didn't choose was TouchWiz and the TouchWiz simpler one. And it said I needed to reboot my device for the changes to apply, so I did that. When I rebooted it said everything stopped working. Even the core thing. Screen went black. Then I took out the battery and when I tried to go to my custom recovery, it just skipped the recovery screen and booted into cm again and same thing happened. Everything just stopped working. Help please. Also I am able to get into download mode. I just don't know how to recover from this. I am running 4.3.1 cm nightly, well I was. I don't know if I could count it was 4.3
if you are able to access the download mode then flash a stock rom. then root your device again.
Hi, I have i problem with my mobile connection.
I have been using liquidsmooth v3 for a couple months without any problem. It started when i started trying 2 stockbased roms : romaur and kitslim. I wasn't able to get mobile data working even if i tried to configure it... download mms settings, choose provider... So i decided to get back to cm, aokp... I tried lots of them : carbo, pacman, aokp, aicp... new problem. at that point mobile network worked, but i was always loosing all network connection (not just data) about 30sec each couple minutes... then i decided to restore my liquidsmooth backup. It helped a little bit, but i am still loosing connection from time to time : about 30sec each 30 min...
Right now, i just reinstalled aicp 4.4.4 r2 5.0 and moshkernel as a last attemp, but it is still not working properly.
I know all this is not very clear, but i need help!!
In the process, i installed and flashed many roms, kernels and recovery...
my question actually is what could affect my mobile connection in all that? in time i installed a new rom, i wiped data and factory reset the phone.
i remember on my samsung there were modem you could flash...?
hope someone understands my problem et asks for more info..
thanks
Flashing a load of modded ROMS wont make trying to find out any easier so you need to flash a stock ftf and do a full wipe of your Phone, I'd even wipe your SD and start from scratch.
