[Q] a lot of issues $#%$ - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Alright so im having a lot of problems. Usually when I turn off my phone and it boots up it'll usually freeze on that rainbow circle screen so I turn it off and back it then it loads fine no big deal but yesterday I turned it off and tried turning back on and now it freezes every single time. All day yesterday I kept booting into recovery and kept restoring roms, Ive factory reset it, wiped data, wiped dalvik cache and now when iI turn it on I have no apps. The screen is jus black but the pulldown bar is still there and I can't download apps or apks. I get error 24 every single time. Anyone know how to fix this? I'm using moar ROM BTW if that helps. Also one more thing, when my phone starts up now it always says android.process stopped and systemUI stoppes
I have pics but apparently can't post them..

I would try downloading a stock rom... do a fresh install. .. meaning factory data reset, wipe cache, dalvik cache, and just because of the problems I'd format my internal memory too. Are you running 4.3 version of moar or the 4.1.2? If the problems continue there may be something else corrupted

[Q] Freezing, FC's after nandroid restore??

So I decided to try one of the ICS roms earlier today. I nandroid backup'd my current config, flashed the ROM, played around, ran calkulin's format all, and proceeded to nandroid restore. Booted back into what was my original config only to find it's constantly locking up and random apps keep FCing. I did fix permissions, I wiped dalvik and cache multiple times. What the hell is the point of nandroid if it doesn't ****ing work right anyway?
I'm on RA 2.3 recovery. I backup the normal stuff including .android_secure and wimax.
Do you still have the rom handy?,if so,do your nandroid backup,then without wiping anything,install the rom over the top of the backup you just restored,it should help with the FC's,it worked for me,but if you installed a theme,it will convert back to stock as far as the framework goes.
Try manually wiping all options except sdcard and battery stats 3x or more and then restoring your nandroid then wipe cache and dalvik after the restore and before rebooting, sounds like you may have an errant piece of data that got left behind during the wipe
It seems that the 18 or so reboots I was forced to do have fixed something. No problems now. Strange for sure.
G+ was locking my phone up causing me to have to pull the battery, it was working fine then there was an update in the market but I was using an inverted version and didn't want to update the the bright white one and after a week of not updating it it started randomly freezing up when I would try to upload a pic or post a long message I updated and it stopped :-/ which was weird in itself maybe an app got updated and fixed your issue or maybe something uninstalled itself if your using dta2sd, sometimes when I have FCs, random reboots or have to do a battery pull some of my a2sd apps disappear when I reboot

[Q] Home screen keeps crashing / looping every time i change roms

I have been having a problem every time I change roms where after it boots up, i get maybe 5 minutes to play around and then the home screen crashes. It reloads, finds a signal, media scanner running etc, just like i just turned the phone on. Before I can do anything, it crashes again and repeats forever. Its not boot looping though. But it makes the phone useless.
This happened last time i tried the 12 lockscreens mod (im on calkulins 2.8.1), so i had to wipe and reflash calks rom since my backup was bad. Then i made another backup to be safe, which is working. Today i tried flashing blu kuban by rujelus22. Same thing happened. Which makes me thing there is a deep seated issue somewhere in the phone.
Every time i flash a new rom, i wipe cache and dalvik, and format system. I also tried a factory reset. Nothing solves my problem and I cant find anything similar anywhere.
I really hope one of you has a brilliant idea for me because I really love this phone, but If im stuck with one rom forever I would be a very sad panda
BTW i have to thank all the devs for all the sweet roms and hacks, you guys rock
Download calkulins wipe all.zip
Run that then try to flash your rom
Also in CWM run the fix permissions option....that usually fixes alot of issues

S3 Stuck in Factory Reset HELP!

I've been trying to get a Rom on a S3 that the wife likes, so I've recently flashed the latest versions of Hyperdrive, Synergy and Wicked. I always follow the proper procedures of data wiping/factory reset, clear cache, clear dalvik, format system, and format data between each flash. I tried Hyperdrive first but had google sync errors, so went to Synergy. Synergy wouldn't connect to the nectwork so I went to flash Wicked v10 but the device wouldn't wipe/format data. I let it set for 20+ minutes and it never progressed. Pulled the battery and tried again but same result. I was able to install Wicked w/out the data wipe and it seemed to boot up ok but I was determined to get that wipe. So next I tried to restore to a backup from a week ago and it also stopped progress at the formatting data step. I re-flash Wicked v10 w/out the wipe. Once it did its thing and booted up I used went to the Factory Reset option under Settings but now the phone is stuck on the screen with the Android figure and a progress bar. Pulling the battery and trying to boot into recovery or even a normal boot all results back on the progress screen. I've managed to thoroughly piss off the wife by disabling her phone. Can anyone tell me how to fix this? I don't care if its reset back to factory rom or just anything to will allow the phone to work. Any help is appreciated.
Have you tried using Odin to flash a new original factory ROM?
IDK if you can get into Download Mode, but, if you can, it's worth a shot.
i agree with that statement. try flashing stock and unroot with odin. i have use hyperdrive since march, and i have not had that issue, so maybe its just a bad download or something. just try odin,

Problem Booting

so heres my problem. i had slimbean 4.1 on my device and it worked great. but i got a new phone and left it in a drawer
decided to give my phone to my sister and the update message showed up in my notifications
i downloaded it and flashed as i have a million times before
then i was stuck in a bootloop.
i did the usual, full while, cache and dalvik, and no success, the same has occured with every rom except the miui rom for some reason that one works
i have noticed that i can not factory reset the normal way, i have to use the alternate under settings in twrp
i have also used the super scripts and i noticed that it gets stuck on clearing the cache, any ideas?

Are you still using the same version of TWRP you used to flash slimbean 4.1? If you are trying to flash newer ROMS with an older version of TWRP, that could be causing the problem.

Try TWRP 2.6.1.0

[Q] Phone suddenly stopped working with 4.4

Hi,
I was running AICP android 4.4 fine for weeks.
Then it kept hanging at boot screen , well just after when screen went black
Only way I could get to boot was clearing cache and re-boot. Worked OK then same thing any re-boot. This got worse and worse until nothing would boot.
I have found this isnt an ACIP issue all kitkat roms do this now on my phone (has now become they never boot). If I put 4.2.2 back on works perfectly
Im flashing the boot.img and reseting factory, dalvik and cache before flashing
Any ideas - really dont understand why 4.4 worked for a fortnight before becoming problematic and then being impossible to work

You don't need to reset to factory you need to format data,system, cache and dalvik cache this is full wipe. Don't format your SD
