Hey guys,
a week ago i've noticed that my power button is a bit too sensitive, now i'm just touching it like the homescreen and the display turns off. Sometimes it stays pushed and reboot for several times, can somebody help me? Please don't give the answer: "Send it to Samsung" or something else, i haven't got guarantee anymore, so i want to fix it myself.:good:
Then you need to dismantle the phone see the SGS3 tear-down via Google .

To dismantle the phone and fix the power button? Obviously it is some kind of hardware challenge and not software, hence open up the phone is needed I guess.

Hi,

Don't know how to fix the home button but use a usb jig to access download mode and root via odin.

Is it possible to schedule a power up on an android that is completely powered off, like you can do with a pc in its bios?
Thanks

I once asked this about a computer and got the reply
"You mean a program that will reach out and press the power button for you? No."
I know it is possible in the bios of some computers. I had a very old cell phone which would power itself on if you had an alarm set. Though I have not seen that function in many years.

Lol you have to love it when you get a reply from a sarcastic person who is clueless.
I will try the alarm thing, and maybe an alarm app or 2

The device can not be completely powered off otherwise how would it kniw when to turn on? in computers this is done with the bois battery and then normaly a lan connection to get the message to start.
So the simple answer is no. You can on some decives put it into a deep sleep but it cant be turned back on if you want it completely off without some physical action

Hi everyone..
When i unlock my s3, it plays "be-beep!!" sound. Water effect sound plays too. But at the same time "be-beep!!"
If i silence the phone, no sound.. there is not any notif. or fault or error on the screen.. it plays only once when i unlock screen.
Whats that sound??
Ps: it was playing when my s3 unrooted and stock official rom. I rooted it and flash omega v13, its playing now too...

Sometimes it sounds.

Do you have anything near it?
Can it be nfc that's being triggered
Skickat från min GT-I9300 via Tapatalk 2
No there isnt any suspicious object. Even i walking outside it plays.. weird.
U think any hardware error can do this?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
But phone is working perfect. No errors, no lags, no fc's... just cant silent that sound when unlock screen..

Can you record it?

But when it sounds again i'll record it. Because once it appear, it doesnt stop till i reboot.

Lol in the relevant system/media folder and see if you have any additional files for unlock screen, another Rom might have dumped a new sound file and it needs removing?

I'm experiencing the same issue. It is intermittent, but generally if restart my phone it goes away for a while. I am unsure as to what triggers the sound to start again. The only way I can stop it is to turn off notification sounds altogether (or turn the volume down to mute), but this is not practical. I have tried to find the audio file to delete it, but no luck. Happy to record the sound if somebody tells me how!

Take your accessory case off and i bet the noise goes away...
it is NFC ... near field communication... the phone is picking up your case and thinks its another device, it can be turned off in settings
took me ages to figure it out too
Addy
Cheers! I'll give disabling NFC a go (since I never use it but do need a protective case on account of having a habit of dropping my previous phone). I'll let you know how I go!

no problem :good:
Hey, I just bought a samsung i9100 from a network company(orange) with the ics 4.0.4 version on it. Sometimes my screen doesn't work, i mean i'm typing and it doesn't respons but after i turn the phone in lock screen (1 time on power button) it works again. Oh, also it move by itself and if i type on contacts for exaple it execute my command and do one extra touch on some porson from my contacts. I'm convinced that it's a software problem but may i'm thinking wrong?

Must be the touch driver crashing....
*clean your screen, fluids tend to crash touch driver and like you mentioned locking, wiping the screen and unlocking will get it working.
If that doesn't work
*maybe it's because of some app you use crashing/colliding check and see you may might have to try un installing the apps which you installed or updated when the problem started to occur.
*if above two failed try performing a factory reset might help .
*finally flashing a new stock firmware will correct the problem if all above methods failed.

Well.....I think you have just found the answer to your question
Remove it and see if it's all good. If not, returning time it is, don't even bother go flashing firmwares. It's a brand new phone.
Good morning. Guys i was thinking that my screen protection isn't a problem because if i lock the screen and i open it again all works. And sometimes when i'm typeing a text message or i'm on browser it seems to type by itself and i'm looking scared .
p.s : i flashed a new stock rom(4.0.3) , i wiped it and i did all i could. the problem is still there.

It's been a while since I fixed mobiles but it sounds like a hardware issue. (I have heard this can be the LCD but it sounds more like the motherboard.)
Have you updated the phone recently or put on new apps?
Before trying to fix it - try uninstalling any new apps, a factory reset or if you recently updated the phone, try downgrading it.
Hope this helps until someone gives you a definite answer.

did u use any cpu controller or something..?
looks like your cpu got busy that moment. Just do the hardway with unplug the battery.
Unless it happened many times, you'd better do like what jordan0001's suggest, factory reset or upgrade or downgrade
Thanks...maybe I'll should try...to upgrade it...:thumbup:
