Help Jelly Bean discussion/issues thread (released Dec. 13)

Going through things in case I do have to do a reset and under Settings -> Storage -> App Storage it shows "Other" as a huge amount (4.03gig). "App" can be selected and see what comprises it but other can't be. Any ideas what "Other" would be?
 
Well, downloaded, updated.

Phone immediately started running warm, it was connected to my WiFi, but no data coming in or going out. Couldn't load web pages, download voicemail etc.

Restarted. NEGRES.

Switched to mobile data. Sync updated.

Back to Wifi. NEGRES.

Forgot network. Reconnected. NEGRES.

Any ideas, thoughts?

Also, sync notification at the top is constant whether on mobile or wifi.

Never had a single issue with this phone before.

LoL Sorry. Negative Results.

The sync DOES go away with mobile on.

I can't connect to my Wifi. Could be me. About to reset router, though, other things working in house.

Just updated my son's EVO 4G LTE - zero problems. His able to connect to my WiFi no problems. Turned mine off for a bit. Still no luck. Wish could easily pull battery. Not sure if I can find my small screw drivers. Factory reset will be next..

Try a flashable instead of an OTA. OTAs can cause problems.

Of 16 GB storage, just over 2 is apps (/data), just under 10 is /sdcard and the other 4 are system/firmware/etc.

Remember - holding power for 10 seconds is the same as a battery pull, it pulls down all the silicon. ;)
 
Sigh....looking like a reset is in order. Just got off the phone and the screen stayed black. Saw a thread where someone else has this issue also. But I got some more notifications from texts which is good!

Yes, the OTA just changed your firmware and you may no longer be unlocked. Not sure though.

Let's please start a thread on this in our root forum, this isn't the best place, ok.

Guess we need to amplify our warning to others -

Please Note -

If you are rooted, do NOT take the OTA.

Sorry, should have been more clear. Shows 4gig used under other. Top section of the storage screen.
 
Thanks, EarlyMon.

No luck with the holding down power button.

Still running very hot .. took case off an hour ago.

Backing up and about to reset.. bleh.
 
Everything works well except I get "android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly" every 30 seconds. Trying a backup/reset now.

So I have the deodexed version installed... Haven't activated it on my line yet. My S3 has been running like a champ. The most important question I have for anyone (and it would help extra if you are in an LtE market). Has the signal improved at all as for as connectivity with data?
 
I installed Jelly Bean a few hours ago and did the ten second power button push. Why is my memory under task manager so full? It's never been this full.

That's completely normal. My suggestion to you would be to stop checking the free memory left(and def don't kill those applications :)). Let android do its thing. Its not like a windows computer where more free memory=faster performance. Free memory is wasted space in android land.

im with this guy, im experiencing the same problem with my wifi. i tried the same forget network hoping that it would fix the problem with no dice. im also considering resetting but i really dont want to as my phone is fine everywhere else with the update. anyone else have any other ideas? im thinking it has something to do with connections optimizer since that was the last part of the update..
 
You cannot disable the shutter or silly zoom sound now when you touch the screen?!? WTF? Is there a work around for this? I've tried using silent mode. Turned down all the sounds on the phone. The option is gone in the camera settings now. Like most everything about JB so far but this.
