s3 lte touch screen problem - Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help &

my galaxy s3 lte sometimes the screen freezes and it is unresponsive to touch. As soon as I turn the screen off and back on with the lock button then it works fine. It does it randomly, for instance when somebody calls I can't answer it sometimes I have to hurry up and turn the screen off and back on so I can swipe to answer. Also when I'm playing games is the same. Everything solves when turn off and then on screen
Thanks for tips

I had same kind of problems when i was using "bad combination" of kernel and rom. Got it fixed by flashing stock kernel But if you're running stock rom, then i don't know how to help you :s

[Q] Darky's Rom auto rotation problem

Hey guys I just flashed Darky's Rom v8.1 on my Samsung Captivate and i really like it but I have two problems. The first one is an auto rotation opposite rotation problem. The screen auto rotates the 90 degrees the wrong way so if i hold it vertically, the screen is horizontal. I calibrated the horizontal axis but it didnt work. The only solution I have found is to turn off auto rotation but then i cant use the qwerty keyboard when emailing or texting. My second problem is that when i download apps it restarts into the Darky's rom screen and reboots back to the home screen with the app no where to be found. Is there anyway you guys can solve one or both of my problems, or even suggest a better rom because im up it P.S. please keep in mind this is my first android phone and Im more or less a noob with this phone (not technology but just the phone)
Sounds like a bad flash.
You can, reflash the rom
Our try a different one
What kernel are you using?
I have not used darkeys but this is not a common issue with the rom

The problem you have with autorotation is because you loaded Darkyys ROM from the I9000 forums. To resolve this issue, use a captivate Kernel. Use the K12O kernel from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893880
Flash it in CWM Recovery.
Hopefully your second problem gets resolved after resolving the first issue. I have Darkyys 8 and using it with the SpeedMod kernel, without any issue..
@rickysa2000 your kernal worked amazing and my phone is mega fast and the auto rotation is back to normal but I still can't download an app successfully. Since i downloaded the kernal, half the time the download is successful and installs and half the time it goes back to the Darky's screen but for both, the app still isn't on my menu. Maybe I'm just being dumb and it's right under my nose, but either way I still cant find it!
Try this
Go to settings
Applications
Manage
market
Clear data
I tried it and it didnt work. I also tried to download other apps besides quadrant standard and that sent it into the darky's screen as well. Any other suggestions? Is there a place where I can see my downloads besides the pull down menu (which doesn't show it) to see if it got downloaded to some obscure place?
Just an idea, but why not download gaskets from the captivate section, and flash it again. I have never encountered your issue but if I did I would either reflash, or flash stock then reflash
Try flashing ytt3r's Captivate port, as he mentioned fixing several bugs present in the I9000 version:

(it's the big "DOWNLOAD HERE" link)
Thanks everyone! I'm downloading the newest Darky rom from ytt3r but for the mean time I just flashed phoenix which works great. But as I was flashing it, I noticed a nice scratch. AHHHH

Screen wont wake after call on any Gingerbread

Hello.
Im having the weirdest problem and i am going insane.
In Gingerbread roms,stock or custom (darky rc3,rc4,CriskeloRom) when i try to make a call or when i receive a call,the screen turns immediately black and never ever wakes up.
No button works,nore do they lit,nothing...
I have to pull out the battery and restart.
Some times when i plug the cable in kies mode,its ok,it comes back the screen but thats seldom.
I tried to keep the screen on,nothing...
This happens only in gingerbread,if i return to froyo,everything is ok.
PLEASE HELP ME
Wait for official Gingerbread .
jje
You could try installing the official (NEE) Gingerbread.
Or flash back to 2.2 and forward from there.
thanx guys but did that too...
i installed official ginger xee and the same thing...in froyo everything works ok.
insane!!!!
Sucks to hear Hope it will be ok when the official Gingerbread gets released for your country. Allthough that probably wont work either.
ps. how do you update from Froyo to Gingerbread? Odin? Maybe try updating from Froyo with KIES using the registry spoofing tool and then installing NEE.

No such issues for me, had stock JVK now on stock JVB. Remove any lag fixes and do a factory reset + Format SD card and try.
i have done everything!!! everything.im no noob in flashing bussiness.
i have tried almost all roms in xda in froyo,i like flashing but that is one of its kind...
i dont know...i will wait for a fix(?).
maybe an update version on ginger?
i repeat,in froyo or even eclair,everything works perftectly.
i even restored my efs file,my csc code...nothing...

WiFi won't go to sleep on JVP

Hey,
I have this problem with Wifi not going to sleep (yes it's set in options to sleep while screen goes off).
I had it on stock JVP (darkcore) and now i got this on Criskelo v70 (darkcore also).
please help me cause it's really annoying
cheers
Try to ask help from Darkcore's kernel thread so that same kernel users could help you with your problem.
Wait, you cannot post yet on the development forum, right? Maybe you could PM some of the darkcore kernel users...
Well i dont really think it's kernel related since no one else seem to have this problem on dark core.
I tried changing a kernel and just as i thought it didnt help, then i wiped the device and still the same thing...
i have no idea what could'v cause it and it seems im the only one with this problem
i think i can try going back to older GB release and than flash jvp again, but i will wait some time for an answer first
edit: i forgot about one important thing: when the phone is connected to the charger Wifi goes to sleep normaly, weird..
edit2: FIXED!
this was my case:

Screen randomly getting stuck and black.

Forgive the title, I just don't know how to describe what is happening all too well.
When I lock my phone and the screen goes black, usually it's fine and I can unlock it but at random times, it just stays like that. My phone still works because when someone sends me a message on Skype, the phone vibrates but the screen just stays black. Neither the home button or the lock button help and the only solution I have found is to reboot my phone at those times.
What should I do to unlock it when this happens or to prevent it from happening again?

Oh CM9 i see Does this happen with other custom roms or stock-rom too?
If reboot solves the problem, it is high likely not hardware related i think. Maybe you should choose another custom rom and give it a try. Back to the times i flashed cm9 nightlies nearly everyday, i experienced a lot of those random bugs. Since i use cm10 nightlies all annoying bugs are gone and my phone runs like butter
If the problem persists, you should do a bugreport on the CM9 original thread:

Hehe, old thread. I actually thought it would get lost in the ages
Anyway, I didn't exactly solve the problem but it sort of fixed its self when I started using the Nightly, my phone has never been this stable. (currently on Android 4.1.1 using CyanogenMod 10-20121003-NIGHTLY-galaxysmtd)

Wi-Fi wont turn on

so this morning, after reflashing VJ's slim bean rom, i noticed that my wifi wont turn on. i would slide it to [on] and it says "turning on wifi" but it get stuck there and the button becomes grayed out [off].
i have tried reflashing the rom
i have tried complete wipe
(sd,factory,cache,/boot,/system,/data and etc etc etc)
i did use blackrose prior to flashing the rom to adjust the hboot again, though that shouldnt cause this issue right?
what seems to be the problem here? i have been using VJ's rom for like 2 months stable and this has never occured.

Did you finally solve it? I have the same problem with Evervolv's Kitkat. Posted details here. It doesn't seem very common, just found you with similar problems, and this other post.

oddly enough, i clean flashed the rom one last time and eventually the problem fixed itself. after a few days it was back to normal
some things i did try (not sure if it helped or not)
-airplane mode on for a while and then off
-power off phone and take battery/sd/sim card out and let it sit for a few hours
-i got to a point where i could "turn wifi on" (drag slider to ON) and i left it there permanently until it fixed itself
