Anyway, am an S3 Garnet Red user for almost a month now. so far so good until up to today. Suddenly my S3 would auto off by itself. I mean even when the battery was low all these while, it never happen before. Only today it happened twice. any idea why? Did not root my phone. Using Stock ICS 4.0.4

Recent Apps Installed
-Asphalt 7(free from Samsung Apps)
-Nova Launcher Free(but have been using Nova for a week now, have no issues with it in terms of perfomance)
-Go Keyboard
-Go SMS Pro

any of these apps might trigger the sudden auto off?

it's quite weird actually. I mean the time when it is auto off only when the battery is about 25 - 38%. So far it only happened twice and i never let any apps running. (even when I leave any app running, this never happened before). But even when the battery is at that stage over the past month, this never occured.
*
i keep on trying to think logically how some people got weird sympton such as auto off......

auto off as in you see the phone suddenly shutting it self down?
or auto off as in the phone goes to sleep and you cant wake it up?

happen once or twice on stock it hard to wake up from sleep cause it lag for a while, usually happen if got heavy apps running in back, so when you keep pressing the power button for so long, the phone cut the power, and you thought the phone was auto off

it happened twice on friday. that was the first time. then yesterday it happened once. there is no other options besides master reset? I don't really seem to find this solution very practical. It's like spamming in technical support, saying ''REFORMAT la. sure gao dim dy the problem''/ No offence though. I would just want to have a proper diagnosis. What if the problem reoccur after formatting my phone?  hmm.gif
Well. I'm pretty sure it is auto off. Since when i press the power button or the home button, nothing pops up. I mean i press once to switch on LED. I mean that is the function of short press right. Only when I press it for a longer time, it switches on back, showing the Lock screen.

I have a few apps that I would want to prevent from running in background processes since I'm not using them. Apps such as LINE or games like GT Academy, Samurai Vs Zombie, Blood and Glory. But i cant seem to kill them in task manager. for LINE, it refuses to be killed. It will auto restart itself in the background processes.

deep sleep does have that sympton, you press home/power it just doesnt switch on, but it doesnt mean it is off, it just doesnt wake up from deep sleep.

what the status of your phone?
root? stock? custom rom? custom kernel?

Google never sent stock vanilla firmware to S3. All official firmware comes from Samsung (with Touchwiz UI)
Yes..S3 will get KeyLime Pie as Samsung have obligation with Google to upgrade atleast two firmwares version.
So from ICS > JellyBeans > KeyLime Pie.
After that you can only hope and pray hard for another firmware upgrades. tongue.gif

next update is not keylime pie, next update is jellybeanMR1 or some web called it 4.2+ whistling.gif

Maybe I wasn't clear, I was referring to turn by turn navigation on google maps which is disabled in Malaysia?

I understand that with a rooted device, you can do a clean uninstall of google maps and then do an install of a modded maps which allow navi.  But on unrooted S3, you can't do a clean uninstall of google maps which means you can't do an installation of the modded google maps
*
yes, that is correct, no root, no google map navigation

try waze.

waze also online gps, kinda no different with google navi,

but with waze you can avoid traffic jem, with the sacrifice of distance, and tol money, and the maps sometimes are not properly made by the community,
some poi are also hard to search,

google map, most completed POI i ever know, shop names also got, but sometimes the shop name, and the place are not correct, show the traffic condition using colour, RED,YELLOW,GREEN, but does not have jem avoidance. the maps maybe not as updated, but it get you there no problem,

Forget about Papago. Their maps are too outdated.

Waze will continue to improve with more users. Some  areas are more detailed than Google maps.

maybe you forgot to update your papago monthly? wink.gif

Hi, I got 3 questions.
1. I dont have CWM apps? Rooted with CF 6.4 and flashed ARHD. Do I need to install CWM separately. SU is there.
2. My whatapps doesnt show full listing from contact, same to viber (Synchronization not working well), any idea to fix this? Flashed from ICS, before that full contact sync-ed. Enabled "Sync" option though.
3. Any other option to wake S3 without using home button? Afraid my home button damage in long run.

-For those looking for GPS, would recommend "Sygic" https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?...eWdpYy5hdXJhIl0. Free trial 7 days, working well offline without data.
*
1. get quick boot better, reboot into recovery, download, or just reboot, easy.
2. whatsapp/viber only show contact that also using whatsapp/viber, if they dont use it, they wont appear, (you new in whatsapp?)
3. use power button

I used some headphones and the sound quality is not so good , can anyone recommend  smile.gif , not those in-ear ones but outer ear buds

try asking in the audiophile thread, i think most here use normal one only, senheinser is recommended always, dont go for the mainstream-konon-hipster beats headset.

My S3 got problem after changing SIM.. I just realize it few days later.. No wonder I keep getting missed call.. My caller ringtone not ring, just vibrate..

I wonder what causes this.. Tried everything; restart, go to sound settings, change ringtone, etc. Even factory reset.
The last thing I did was install back official ICS.. Before this I just root only, no custom..

Anyone have this problem before?
*
sound like simcard faulty sympton, did you cut the simcard? what do you mean by changing sim? (normal ->micro? , digi -> maxis?)
