***The Official Samsung Galaxy S III Thread***

I just spoke to him again. He still insists there is lag, even slightly, and nothing much running on it. He has a task killer on it but im not sure if thats good or bad.
 
Has anyone tried this firmware that has appeared on Sam Mobile?

I9300XXEMB1_I9300OXAEMB1_BTU


Installed it on my wife's last night - don't notice a lot different however phone is a bit snappier and it seems to have fixed the random freezes she was having. My S3 is coming back to me today from Samsung after it had the sudden death thing and ill get it on there too after work.
 
I've been having a lot of issues with my S3 recently.
For no reason the whole phone will just freeze up, and I have to remove the battery to get it working again. Must have been 5 or so times yesterday.

I'm going to flash crDroid from fresh and see if that makes a difference to anything.
 
Anyone know how to do a factory reset?
Applied some ROM update couple of hours ago to my phone, started seriously playing up and now I can't get it to do anything :(
Try and boot into recovery and all it states is 'downloading...do not turn off target'
This is after I hold 'power, home and left volume' then asks to hit up to continue.
Last time I left it 'downloading' for 20-30mins or so and nothing happened.
Getting a little scared now.

Anyone have any suggestions?
 
That's what I've tried, it goes into some program with the android man center screen. 'Downloading.....Do not turn off target'

Custom Battary Download: Yes (1 counts)
Current Battary: Custom
System Satus: Custom
Qualcomm Secureboot: Enable


and that is it.
 
I got a little (~50MB) OTA update from LLA to MB1 this morning. No obvious changes, but everything seems in order. Nice and snappy :)
 
54.03mb update downloading on mine just now..interesting.

Apparently we and other countires got MB1, in russia they got MB2 - still no idea what changes if any are present, cant find a damned thing - just lots people complaining its not smooth and that MR1/2 is better (never heard of MR1/2)

Sounds much like imminent sudden death to me. I had this over Christmas.
