Even service center guys siad same reasons. After escalating this issue, they found out the actual problem was with the power button on right side. I have Gs3 thru T-Mobile. On my last holiday I put my s3 in airplane mode while in air and the Wi-Fi worked like a charm. Hi, My firmware update is working fine, I just wanted to know what the N and little signal icon at the top of the screen means..? I bought my samsung galaxy s3 from korea as it is cheaper there.
Since im using a philippine provider, i cannot do that. Pls help me, i want to get the best out of my phone. I am having the exact same problem!
Did you find a solution for this? This website is dedicated to anything that has to do with Android. You will have to go somewhere else to find help regarding your apple device. Same for me.. I bet you regret putting this on your blog with all these end users hounding you for a fix ;. Nah thats ok. I only wish I could help more. Uninstalling an update is not very easy. Most likely the stock settings are set to a more battery consuming setting.
I am posting a comment as i have updated my phone with no problems. I have unlimited data on my sim but opted like last time for WIFI as it is quicker and i have to say it has been stress free. I never seek updates and only do so when promoted by the S3. People who are having issues may need to consider that when you buy a phone be it on contract or second hand or sim free brand new like i did that the phone needs to be for the country you are in.
I know of a person who bought a second hand as new S3 but can not update his phone as it was for the Asian market only but the phone is fast for his needs.. Should I let it continue or try a restart?
Hi, Iv just updated my phone and come up with the same problem you mentioned….. Email works the rest of the time though. I have the Galaxy S3, with T-Mobile. I have tried to push the update thru, but the response that I get after I click on Software update is….
Try later. I have never heard such a thing. Any suggestions?
The first thing I would try was to turn off the automatic update and give it another shot. This has actually worked for some.
If this fails I would update my phone with the computer program Kies from Samsung. You can find a link to a tutorial on this subject in the article above. I got kies to reinstall the cable drivers using its help feature and I still have the same problem. Please any help would be appreciated, thank you. Pull down the notification area on your phone. If you can see that it says connected as a camera, press that area to change your USB options.
Pick the connect as Media device. Your phone should now connect to kies as it should. When i checked for update on my phone galaxy s3 , i found a message told me that my device has been modified and software updates are not available!!!!! Very thanks for your expected cooperation. It has blown all my mobile data and for the month: But if I turn OFF the Auto Update setting on the Software update screen first and then ask it to do the Update it now happily downloads that rotten JellyBean update and applies it successfully.
Can you help me out here please? I think my phone has sudden death syndrome. What can I do???
Many s3 owners that comes to this site has reported the same problem. So many indeed that I contacted SAmsung support to hear what they had to say about it. Basically this is what they said:. They had never heard of this spesific problem but would suggest the following way to update the Galaxy s3 :. I had this problem while updating once. This should make the update get back on track. Strangely hitting that notification area message seems to have no effect at all.
So Honestly, is this update Worth It after reading all the problems…. Thanks, Mac. Well I guess if you ask the people who have problems getting it right they would likely say that it is not worth it. But then again if you ask the millions of people who have updated their device without problem they would say that it was worth it. Consider the fact that those who updated without problem would probably not post on this article, while those who have problems are more likely to post to get help I upgraded my phone to 4. Now it took ages to load contacts phone log and messages and also its playing and high performance games like Asphalt 7, comtract killer 2, Modern Combat 3 and many more like them…..
Can you tell me whats the problem with it and what should I do. Samsung recommends that you do a factory reset after updating. You can find a link to a tutorial a few posts down. Hopefully this will help you get back the performance you are used to. Tried updating firmware via Kies on pc. Hold for a while and this should bring up the recovery mode. You will have to confirm your choice on the next screen. Let me know how it turned out. Few days ago I instaled the new updates to my Galaxy S3 and now I hate my phone!!
It started to freeze and to reboot a few times per day.
I have the same problem but a little more complicated.. Please help!!! Inside are a ton of features built-in to the phone, most of which are disabled. It makes real-time data recording. An event is something that escapes the routine and is always programmed to gather a group of people. I found this web page which I located through a Google search exceptionally useful. I went to bed and woke up, and there is a password on my lock screen, and I didn't make one?
The Games and the music are also not running smoothly like before. Please help!! Is there a way to uninstal the last updates?
Most likely your phone needs a factory reset as Samsung recomends after doing an update. Remember to back up your data and contacts before you reset your phone! It only show tel no without names. Does anyone have this problem and is there any way to solve it? Most times when people run into these little glitches after an update all thay need to do is a factory reset to get it right again.

It only shows me some icons I already have on my startscreen and more important, it blocks space when playing games. It will enable you to run two apps at a time.

Any thoughts? The fastest way to get updates is to use Kies Software from Samsung. Many times when updates are not available through OTA updates you can get it using this method. I go into about device and there is no sortware update option?! Is there something wrong with my phone?
How do I perform an update without using the Wi-Fi connection? I have a data plan but my phone will not give me the opportunity to update unless I am hooked up to a Wi-Fi connection. Your problem has two possible solutions : 1. Go to settings — about device — Software update. Uncheck the Wi-Fi only tab to enable downloading updates without Wi-Fi.
Update your S3 using Samsung Kies software on your computer. The device is from Three UK but now using it in Mauritius. The actual firmware is 4. Wat to do pls?
