Hi guys. Brand new to this whole rooting thing. Long story short, I rooted my device (Galaxy S3 sgh-t999) a while back and was just living off stock touchwiz just with all the bloatware deleted. I had the most recent version of TWRP installed and my recovery was based on that. I then downgraded...

Within the past hour my Android phone * suddenly always thinks that earphones are plugged into it, and it does not use the normal sound outputs. This is a serious problem since I can't use it as a speakerphone or indeed a normal phone, or many other uses. Any ideas? * Samsung Verizon Android...

Hey guys, about 6 months ago I was finally able to figure out how to root my Sprint S3 (SPH-L710) with the recovery method, using Philz Touch. However, I lost root back in August when I updated that patch that was pushed out. My software/baseband version right now is L710VPUDOH1, hardware...

Hi, I've already tried everything (I think...) and I need help to get the keytones back. I can hear them while dialing but during the call they don't work, and with tons of answering machines where you need the keys to get where you want it's pretty difficult. 1. I tried to activate and...

I reflashed the stock ND8 tar which went fine and showed in recovery as official, but I still have no 4g and I am unable to install any...

About six months ago I had an episode that lasted a few days where the phone turned itself off and wouldn't come back on again until the battery was removed. It was still just in warranty so I sent it away and the problem was resolved although they said there wasn't a fault. They did a factory...

Alright, so, I'm not sure what you call them exactly, the "Main Updates" for Android or what have you, but I've been having issues after installing the very latest one just awhile ago. Process went as follows: 1. Phone requested to install update for main android whatsit 2. Accepted, phone shut...

I received a good signal in a rural location for about 18 months. For the last six months I get "no service" or dropped calls more than completed calls. I am guessing that the antenna array has been realigned and coverage is now reduced in that area. There is only one tower in that area. I...

Hi, I've upgraded my phone from the S3 to a newer Samsung phone. I now have an S3 not doing anything, and so i wan't to use it purely as a SatNav. I don't have a sim card in it - so no network data but i can connect it to WiFi every couple of days - therefore whilst in the car, it doesn't...

When i put my phone to charge it shows that it has full battery but has the red notification light. I press and hold the power button and starts to turn on, it gets passed the name of the phone, the brand of the phone, the carrier of the phone, then once it gets passed the blue oval circling...

Hi Friends, I’ve been having a problem with my Samsung Galaxy S3 since the last update where I am unable to use my Settings, :(. Every time I tried to access something in the Settings, it would display a message that reads ‘Unfortunately, Settings has stopped working.’ I’ve tried a factory...

I went to update my S3 and I waited for a while. I turned it off and back on. It just keeps going back to the Samsung logo. I know a solution but it will delete my pictures and stuff. Anyone know any other way? It would save my life. Thank you very much.

So, about a year into having my phone I rooted it, then decided to unroot it and sometimes it would randomly say "Device Memory Damaged." I'd take the battery out, then it'd work. But then randomly it shut off while I was using Snapchat and powered back on and said it. I tried everything to...
