Already there is no doubt that the SDS has a fix in all the firmware 4.1.2. This means that the I9300 with firmware 4.1.2 and above should not be exposed to SDS. Fix SDS is not in 4.0.4 and 4.1.1 firmware.

* Dinis124 , Hint understood. Well, I will unsubscribe about stock. I read the comrades and tried to seek the flow of 4.0.4 and 4.1.2. As a result - I did not like it. That does not fly and not whistle. Like a dialer player and a camera, let it come down. But for the Internet, forgive all the morally obsolete everything. Built-in browser Most of the modern sites cannot be displayed normally. The new chrome is dicked for a new chrome dicked into it. And in general, the entire software that works with online slows down. Many of what we are accustomed to recently and not to put at all. Banking applications, Stregnation Services - forget. Of the advantages, only the corporate beautiful software, which, however, is also outdated, and a quick native high-quality camera (the main plus IMHO), and everything is perhaps. At 4.0.4, nothing is modern at all, even YouTube. On 4.1.2 something else is put, and 4.3. Trying no longer, because I dumped from it because of the brakes. If you do not update the Gugalvisians and the Market, in principle it was still possible to live and even almost not suffer, but the battery. It turns out to be obvious faster than on custom. Long tormented, but still could not stand and dumped on here that higher by Caste. And the body got a second life, you will not believe. So here is the stock.



Rep: (14)
* OT990_ags If rolled back to 4.3 to 4.1 by the twrp zabekapit the EFS, flash, and on this matter to restore the EFS. You'll lose your native source modem and will suffer with communication. Just do not try to sew EFS from 4.3 or 4.1 to 4.0.4.

The nuances there is a modem. I flashed here the service, which is higher for the state of the box and got troubles with communication. Periodically tight bond fell, although indicators show that approximately only helped restart. I tried to sew a few different versions of modems, but nothing helped. Then guessed ask only EFS backup of original firmware, and lo and behold, it worked. Even an exclamation mark when booting disappeared.

People! Does anyone else use Sabzhem? In the sense, GT-I9300 Galaxy S III. What firmware? Recently, I was surprised to find on my phone that there is NFC. Well, OK - I think. I will put the program for contactless payment - Cool, Che! I began to wake the film market, and there is no application compatible with this mynter. Okay, Mudmay, give it to the fasteners. I was 4.1 in the original, and I saw 4.3. I thought, I will update and find someone to find myself. Updated, and they are still incompatible. Although, there is some NFC Tools, such as you can set up something, but I have not tried. So the question: Does anyone use this thing for contactless payment? Or is it a hopelessly obsolete model and nothing will be satisfied with it?

Here is an infection! But, however, how is it? If there is a technology in the device, then how payment may not be supported, this is also a kind of gear. Transfer through the same technology, that is, with touch. And what to transmit there, without difference - data, they are data. Sustaining .. Well, okay .. Do not take the same new apparatus only for this garbage .. This after the wipe behaves like a new one. :) And it has already tortured to blow. After some moment, in the previous system, the ability to transfer applications to an external card was disappeared, as a result of which the internal memory was overwhelmed and all the processes were bravely braked and generally tin .. But after flashing, this feature appeared back and now the device came to life .. You can still a couple of years Squint.

Here is an infection! But, but, how can this be? If you have the technology in the machine, as the payment can not be maintained, it's also a kind of transfer.

Contactless payment has been previously. But because of the support of Google Android 4 discontinued last year and on our apparatus no longer beskontknoy payment.

Good vein day all! The problem is as follows: Tel arrived from Israel. It was already flashed by several local regional service multi-factor Factory firmware. Prior to that, it worked normally - unknown. It was not possible to check the opportunity and if it was all the time it was buggy, it would be even noticeable that something is wrong. It may be checked sim card and in a rapid version. The problem is in very unstable work in the 3G network mode. That is, the dialing in times and the Internet once. In 2G mode - works fine. Through such reasons as a sim card, operator, technical connection, slot, antenna, and so on. Can you influence this anything except the modem? Communication chip, iron "Non-" (maybe in the gland laid a foreign range), EFS section? There is such a problem that after the initial EFS there are troubles with communication (after the firmware), but I don't know if it can only affect 3G? And if so how can I solve? Initially, firmware 4.3 was stitched by 4.3. The problem is not gone. Firmage of service 4.1.2 and updated by air to 4.3. Then stitched one again. 4.3. There is a backup full for TWRP after the first firmware 4.3 .imei on the spot as it was originally. Can someone come across such an option? Backup EFS is very original naturally no.
By the way exactly the same problem with the officially bought "vinfonoy" (certified) Nokia 620. The same solution has yet been found.

P.S. The reason is revealed. On the reverse side of the board is right in the middle of the antenna GSM biasing contact with the impact which structurally may prosest. On board a lot of contacts, and almost all from the front and this can and miss. Which is what happened. In this case, it touches but it was not a good contact. That's the whole reason 2 days troubleshooting. (Maybe someone will come in handy)

The closest caste to energy saving as well as to a faster and long-limiting work - optimized stock. (Ruttle-Right - Removal of the stock List from the header - Replacing the stock AIC for less resource-intensive and more efficient - Restriction Max. Processor frequency of the SETCPU processor - Auto Summination of the Software Program Greenify If it works - Disabling rarely used programs in the application manager or in the program Root uninstaller pro_8.1.apk - disabling unnecessary processes by disable service by the list that can be asked by Google - auto power / auto-connected SIM cards for the night at a given time by the TIMED Toggles_1.5.0.apk program) is not counting the power saving mode included. It is also desirable to throw out the headband from the phone and do not use them. Or freeze and defrost when you need. They also contribute to the loss of charge without the demand of swarmingly in the phone. A more efficient option does not exist in nature like a ready-made castoma.
