Hi! I have a new Samsung I8190 (S3 mini) with full stock ROM. When the screen was locked and off, after some minutes or hours(random), the screen is flash up some times. Is it a bug? I didn't do any mod with this phone. I try to change lockscreen, and i uptade the stock Firmware from the settings menu, but that isn't to be better.

[Q] Galaxy S Plus I9001 - Bootloop

Bootloop on i9001
Hi guys, i gonna tell you about how my i9001 was stuck in a bootloop. Maybe you could help me. I'm sick of it.
Cause: I installed cm10 and cwm5 or 6 as recovery and upgrade my device by using Ota Updater. When I restarted my i9001, it got stuck in a bootloop.
What my i9001 can display: It can access to rampdump mode and download mode. In case I try to turn on my i9001 or access to recovery mode the Samsung logo is shown twice. It often gets stuck showing the typical grey battery flat (with a loading stopped) and the black screen alternately.
Attempts: i've tried everything except for the right solution. Lots of forum threads and nothing works for me. I've tried:
1.- Boot_loader for device boot.
2.- I've flashed an stock rom: XXKQP, and 2 more: BVKPC y XXKQ1. Each one are official.
3.- And then recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4 and -6.0.1.2.
4.- I've tried, then, flashing feamodrecovery 1.2.
5.- Nothing works for me.
I've been using Odin 4.43. AriesVE in OPS section and when flashing these roms: one package. For recovery packeges: one package and pda (I tried these two options).
I can't reach at recovery mode. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Greetings!

[Q] Stuck on Samsung logo + previous flickering problem

Hello.
About one month ago I rooted my Galaxy Note and flashed Phliz kernel, but kept the original ROM.
A couple days ago my phone started to have some screen flickering and battery drain issues. The screen started flickering and the battery drained till 15%, when the phone completely shuts down. This happened a couple of times. I always put the phone to charge after this, and was able to power it on.
But today this happened and when I tried to power the phone on, it stucked on the Samsung logo screen. And stays there forever. I tried to restart and even do a factory reset (I dont care about my data since its everything on the cloud). The problem persists.
When I put the phone to charge the battery charging icon appears and apparently it charges normally.
I am able to enter the Recovery mode (CWM Touch) and the Download too.
What should I do? Can the problem be the battery? Maybe I should unroot it? Flash a stock kernel?

Can I follow your video step-by-step even having a custom kernel (Philz) and CWM?

I did it. I followed your step-by-step video. Everything seen to be ok. Unfortunately the same error is happening, the only difference is that it's stuck on the Nexus welcome screen (the X), not the old Samsung screen.
It kept this screen till the screen started flickering again and the phone shut down, as before.
So, I changed the recovery to the normal 6, the kernel to the CM and the ROM to the Nexus 4. None of these solve my problem. What to do now?
So... I tried to flash a stock ROM (JB XXLSZ) through Odin. I did everything according to this video ?v=nmLm2pTdxk0 from youtube.
I also changed my battery to another (non-original) that I arranged. Now the flickering stopped.
Now I'm on a bootloop (like he was at the first try), but I tried the second time and it continues on a bootloop. Also, when I go to the stock recovery, it says:
"e: Failed to mount /efs (Invalide argument)"
It appears I bricked my phone? I do not have an efs backup.
Can anyone help me?
No one? Common guys, I don't know what to do...

[Q] Stuck in BootLoop and don't know what to do?

I flashed Virginity Rom.
Afterwards my phone infinitely keeps coming up with the 'Samsung Galaxy SIII Mini I8190T.'
I think the problem was when I chose the virginity setting to keep default bootscreen.
I can access Download Mode/Odin Mode but I can't access recovery.
I have a backup but as I said, No recovery so I cant restore.
I have CWM Touch Recovery if that helps.
I tried flashing PAC Android with Odin but that didn't work.
What do I do?
I am willing to completely refresh my phone, backups and all It doesn't matter.
I just can't lose this phone!
Update: I flashed a file called 'PARAM_I8190.tar.md5' and now it doesn't even show the Samsung Galaxy Screen.
It mainly just shows up with the Downloading... Screen sometimes distorted.|

[Q] [HELP]Soft buttons "bug"

Hello. Yesterday I flashed my first rom on my s3 mini, so I am soo noob. I flashed first cm11 and then carbon, and I had both times the same problem: with my stock rom the back and menu buttons lights up only when I press them, but using the roms they light up every time I touch the screen. Is it normal? Is there any way to fix it? I want to use the rom but with the buttons working like with the stock. Thanks

[Q] Phone doesn't work

Phone updated to 5.0.2 OTA, then phone turn off (likely the battery is low), and now it does not work (only screen saver turns).
Fastbut menu work. I Unlock the bootloader through the official website. Tried to instal the stock firmware 4.4.4 or 5.0.2, then TWRP.
The result is the same: the splash screensaver motorola or blackscreen or logo Teamwin.
