Flashed new rom with full wipe, cleared cache, cleared dalvik cache as well. Nothing helps. Think it's a facebook app! Just did everything from scratch without installing facebook app and system is working fine! Have all apps insalled and put into folders etc and all good. Anyone had issue like this before?

Can I re-install Touchwiz alone? Without loosing my apps? I have polish official jelly bean. Where can I download Touchwiz alone for jelly bean? Will it help?

Well you can rip the relevant files out of a rom and replace .
Or use the flashable modded TW files .
My suggestion would be to download and reflash the firmware .

Turn off developer options in settings, the green button at top right of screen and then reboot.
Remove your screens and enable your developer options and reboot again.
The problem is related to animation settings.

What about the kernel? Does it work with CM7 kernel?
Is WiFi hotspots working?
I'm asking because I currently am using Achotjan's ROM, and my only complain on it is that hotspots doesn't work.

You will lose that part of settings where you can do OTA update, and check for new firmwares. If you think you will ever need that option, just back up that .apk, and install back whenever you'll need it

ICE CREAM SANDWICH GUIDE AND NEW FEATURES OF SAMSUNG OFFICIAL ICS AND ROM QUESTIONS
Hey guys. With the new Ics roms there are brand new ways to do things that are very different from gingerbread.
How do I take a screenshot in ICS?
This is one new feature of ICS. Hold down the power button and volume down button.
Can I still slide my finger across the status bar to change brightness?
Yes.
Where is usb debugging and unknown sources?
The usb debugging is now in developer options in the settings menu. Unknown sources lies in security options in the settings menu.
How do I activate face unlock?
Go to settings then security and select screen lock. There you will find face unlock along with 4 other options.
How come when I hold the home button I get this menu instead of the last 6 apps I use?
Google made a better way to multi task in Ics so now everything you used is shown. You can swipe right or left to kill an app.
How do I copy and paste?
Hold down on the screen and move the arrows to what you want to copy and press the piece of paper at the top right of the screen.
How do I activate mass storage, all that shows up when I plug in the computer is mtp?
Once again this is a new feature of ics. To get mass storage go to settings then click more then usb utilities and click usb storage.
How come when I click on phone I no longer see the contact tab in the menu. I only see phone, log, and favorites???
This was done by Google to help stay organized and provide a clean experience to users.
How come with all ICS roms my facebook photos don't sync and how can I fix them?
Well you got me there. For some reason the photos don't sync natively on ICS. I think its a way by google to boost users of google plus. This is easily fixable by using an app called sync my pics or by using friendcaster from the play store?
Is overclocking possible with this kernel?

Do you have clock work recovery? If so. Wipe data then wipe cache. Then wipe dalvick cache under advanced and flash the rom.
(it sounds like you have 3e recovery. If your not rooted and running a custom kernel it won't work.)

How many apps have you dl?
Sent from my GT-P7510 using xda premium
Probably nothing to do with the apps.
Procedure to follow
Wipe everything first, from recovery, if its custom, wipe cache, dalvik cache and factory reset, if its stock recovery, wipe cache and factory reset.
Then reinstall your rom using whatever method you used, mobile odin, odin, cwm etc.
Afterwards before you get a 1st boot, pull battery after the successful flash, put your battery back in again and boot back to recovery and wipe everything again.
usually when your getting fcs performing the wipes and factory reset resolve it, so i would think it is something to do with how your installing your roms.
Failing the wipes, perhaps its the firmware your using, could also try a different rom.
i made all of this
first : i have these apps gta 3 assassin creeds chainfire pro all of them fc
second i made full wipe but i didn't make the battery thing

[Q] No camera in SlimBean 2.7

Hi,
i am using a Samsung Galaxy S3 (i9300) and installed the new 2.7 SlimBean yesterday. (Kernel: Siyah-s3-v1.7b6)
I wiped it before upgrading from 2.6 to 2.7 just to make sure.
Everything worked fine, and after i pleyed back my apps with Titanium i was a happy camper.
Until today when i found out the camera app dissapeared.
Also i couldn't start the app from the lock screen by sliding to the left.
So i once again downloaded all the files(ROM, slim_gapps, multiDPImarket) but no change.
So am i the only one with this problem, and if yes any ideas what i could do ??
Thanks alot in advance

Did you install in the following order:
1.I9300.zip
2.Common 2.2.zip ( has gapps among others, including multi dpi play store, don't flash another one)
You could always use a 3rd party camera app or look in the themes section of xda for the stock apk
I would suggest a fresh install, but first, have you frozen the gallery app by any chance and can you see camera app and gallery in your app drawer?
Try clearing data from both in app manager as well, also bit recovery, wipe cache/dalvik and fix permissions

I looked at slimroms.net but only could find these:
-Slim_Gapps
-VoiceDialer_Addon_GoogleNow
-Extras
-Face_Unlock
-AIO_Addons
-Multi_DPI_Play_Store
-Inverted_Multi_DPI_Play_Store

Gallery is there (also works) but nope, cannot see the camera app in the drawer ... this is why i tried to get to the cam via the lock screen.
Also i tried a fresh renistallation with all wipes possible (several times) in recovery.
*sigh* i guess i'll go back to 2.6, everything worked like a charm with the old version.
Thanks anyways :highfive:

Try the all in one package instead of the slim gapps?
The common file has been renamed to slim-gapps so what you did was correct.
All I can suggest is use Odin to flash a stock Rom and then Flash slimbean again.
