Sorry if it's a repost but I am trying to upgrade from T999UVLH3 to T999UVDLI3 but it fails as I have to go back to stock. What is the recommended way to downgrade to ICS from JB without wiping everything on my phone? or is there none? From what my search has resulted till now I will have to wipe everything, but i thought ill just confirm.
If i have to wipe everything then can i just use kies to do factory restore? I am using Mybackup to back everything up.
You really should be wiping everything every time you flash something.....

You could try just wiping the system.
If it doesn't work, then you will need a complete wipe. Question - did you have any complete nandroid backups

I used Mybackup to do a back. Is it good enuf?
Also i just read that I can't do a factory reset. I will have to download the stock rom and ODIN flash it. I am currently downloading T999UVALH2_T999TMBALH2_TMB.zip. Is this a correct stock rom?

Don't want to sound rude in anyway but you really need to just put your phone down and do some reading. Or you are going to end up with a really exspensive paper weight. If you have not even heard of odin you should not be messing wihmth any modems or radios because the wrong modem will brick the **** out of that shiny new SIII. Like I said no disrespect and we were all new at this at one point. But just take some time and do some reading. Google can be your best friend and the more you learn the more you will end up getting out of your device

I flashed DLI3 right on top of LH3 using mobile Odin without wiping anything except Dalvik.
android.process.media started crashing after the reboot, but clearing cache and data for media storage took care of that.

I did that too but when it was crashing this idea didnt occur to me. So i flashed stock on top of it. Now its stuck on "FIRMWARE UPGRADE ENCOUNTERED AN ISSUE", kinda bricked. What do i do?
Try to boot back into download mode and odin back to stock.
There really is a reason these updates have to be applied a certain way. Sorry you had to find out one of them. Shortcuts CAN brick your device!

Look for "Media Storage" in the Applications manager list within System Settings. It will be under the "ALL" tab. Force Stop it then clear data and cache. If that doesn't fix it, disable it completely. You can tell that everything's been fixed if you open your Play Store without triggering a crash. Once it's fixed, you'll need to re-enable media storage again, and reboot.

Worked well but i can't root on JB now... Esignature verification failed when i try to install superuser.zip in recovery. Did u have this problem?
EDIT: Fixed it... all good. Thanks for ur help
Every time I start Google Now while I'm on data, it just says "Initializing" and eventually times out. When I back out of it and do it again, it's fine. This is on 4G and it doesn't happen on wi-fi. Has anyone experienced this and is there a fix?
Are you rooted? If so, has this happened on other roms?
If not, try clearing its cache and then reboot

I am rooted and it's happened all ROMs. Never had a chance to try it on stock since that was pre-Jelly Bean. Do I clean the cache for "Google Search"?
Yes, try that
But on all roms? Have you restored any data?

Yea, I've restored apps+data via ROM Toolbox Pro but not for Google Search.
Yeahh I've seen weird things happen when you restore data...try backing up the Google Search apk, uninstall and then reinstall it
Clearing the cache worked. Thanks for the tip.

I tried a 4.2.2 ROM Version, let Google Play restore my stuff and halfway through I got a 920 error on everything, so I tried to wipe the dalvik cache and rebooted and still got the error. Then I read up and saw 4.2.2 was buggy somewhat so I figured that was the problem, noticed my internal storage was low so I wiped it before flashing the 4.1.2 rom, successfully flashed it, booted back up and was still getting the same error after initial setup.

Hey guys,
I recently moved to the gs3 and jelly bean so this may be a known solution but for the life of me I can't find it. I've tried liquid 2.1 and 2.2 both with multiple gapps and still have the problem on clean wipes. Phone itself is only a day old.
When I start my camera it lags for a minute showing no picture then crashes, saying gallery has stopped. The funny thing is it actually WORKED before I updated my google apps through play? Worked fine on original rom also. This is driving me nuts as it is literally my only problem and I need my camera, but love this rom.
Thanks!
EDIT: BTW. Gallery starts fine on its own and I've tried the camera32_patched_v2.zip fix I found on another site and no luck(just have two camera icons and both do same thing)

Clear data on the gallery app (settings/ manage applications, or something along those lines) go to all apps and find gallery, clear data on it and try to use the camera again..

Yes and yes. I've tried gapps-jb20121011 and 20130301, both on liquid 2.1 and 2.2. Clean wiped each time. Same thing with camera always. Grey screen when it starts and then shortly after opening it crashes with gallery error.

Did factory reset first from settings(not sure if you should do this from inside a rom but oh well) and then rebooted into recovery. Tried rewiping and reinstalling again... Cleared cache, divak. used liquid 2.2 and jb2012011 which goo.im says is correct, fixed permissions. Got constant com.google errors and couldn't run initial setup had to put 20130301 just to get to setup and have phone back running again. Camera still broke(this time I tried before any updates again and it didn't even work then). What am I doing wrong?

Not sure if this will help, but I suggest: Do factory reset from custom recovery, wipe cache and dalvik. Then, install the latest M Snapshot of CyanogenMod found here. Then flash the latest 4.2.2 GAPPS from here. Reboot into system, try out the camera and check if it works. If it works on CM, do factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik then install Liquid Smooth. Good luck!

Update... I've been busy and have not had time to redo the phone again today, and I'm already 4 /0 folders deep(wtf 4.2?).
Here is the thing.. the camera started working out of the blue. I had the phone up for about 4-5 hours and randomly opened camera(which i keep doing) and it finally worked! I was able to take pics. Then my battery died... and now the camera is borked again after restarting. This is driving me insane. Any idea what is going on?

Charged for a bit and was able to start camera on second try then it would not reopen no matter what I did. Restated a few times and everything. This is going to make me crazy lol.

What I recommend doing is having phone charged to at least 70%, using Titanium Backup to restore your apps, and follow these instructions to the dot. This is what I did while using TWRP 2.5.
1) redownload LS v2.2 and gapps 20130301
2) backup all apps to TB
3) boot into TWRP
4) select 'Wipe' then 'Advanced Wipe'
5) wipe dalvik cache, system, data, cache
6) flash ROM then gapps
7) go back to 'Advanced Wipe' and wipe cache and dalvik cache again ONLY
8) reboot and run through setup wizard
9) immediately go into Play Store and cancel all installing apps.
10) install TB and restore user apps from there
11) reboot
now test out the camera

Does it give you an error, or just close out, FC, any thing? Sounds like an issue that may need some other type of edits. Oh and update your recovery, that's why you have multiple /0 folders....

Didn't work same issue
Tried some of the fixes from that thread too and nothing...
My question now is, I've seen someone saying turning on geotagging fixed the issue. I always turned it off when camera starts the first time, is there some way to turn it back on without redoing rom? Installing that other cam didn't even give me the option again and can't find it in settings.
Still can't get this camera working. Have not even been able to get it to work at all for 2 days now. Someone has to have an idea?
Solution - switch roms. You aren't stuck with roms. Try the aokp port. It's good. So is cm.

I HAVE switched to cm, I'm running it right now. Same exact issue. Works once in a blue moon but usually gallery has stopped and force close of camera. Worked on stock, this is a brand new replacement I got last week.
[Q] Phone was fine, ran out of battery, now "System Ui Has stopped" every few seconds
Hey,
Note 2 running PACMAN rom, android 4.3.
I woke up and checked it at 8am, no problems at all. Went to use it at 1pm and it had run out of battery. I plugged it into my computer to charge it, turned it on and it said "System UI has stopped. Blame Tyler" - and continues to do this every time you press OK, with about a 3 second gap in between each one.
I restart my phone quite regularly and I don't think I've installed anything that could be causing this. I've disabled XPosed but same problem. Any other ideas? Otherwise I'll have to just wipe it and start again, perhaps with CM. I need a working phone for tomorrow though!
Cheers
Maybe a silly question, but have you wiped cache and dalvik cache from recovery? If not try it.

This seems quite sinisiter - thanks for the suggestion but it hasn't worked, and it's unearthed something more concerning about the state of my phone (the TWRP messages, see below). Can't believe I didn't think to do that myself though! (I haven't messed around with ROMs for quite a while so am out of practice, I've had this one for a few months).
Delvik cache completed, then said something like "updating partition details. E: Error opening '/data/system/...." I/O Error" and various APKs - one of which was system UI. Wiping the cache again told me done, but loads of errors of similar APKs (This time in /data/data/ though). This sounds incredibly ominous though and I've never seen that error before in any of the wipes or anything I've done.
Restarted it but the system UI error messages persist. I want to wipe and install a fresh ROM but I'm worried I'm going to be left with a totally useless phone if things won't wipe or flash properly. Any ideas would be great.
If anything goes wrong u still have the option to flash a new rom through odin.
