Samsung Galaxy S3 Jelly Bean Bugs & Fixes

Anonymous
Not applicable

HI,

 

I have already noticed a few bugs with Jelly Bean on my Galaxy SIII and thought it might be useful to start a list of these bugs & hopefully come up with some solutions?

 

  • Low Battery life - attempting a calibration soon, hopefully this will resolve the problem but i suspect it is caused by GPS usage & data usage from google now
  • No ability to set reminder via google now -"Remind me to XXXXXX in ten minutes" results in setting an alarm for midnight?
  • Sky Go app is no longer compatible
  • Pausing music via voice only works if done in an american accent (even though everything is set to UK)
  • Sometimes, selecting a part of text by sliding your finger to the relevant place results in closing the keyboard meaning you can only select part of text with "press"
  • "Google Now" hangs on "Initialising" sometimes when out of WIFI

Thanks

Hi, the best thing to do would be to contact the app developers directly as the game may have not been optmised for jelly bean yet.

Since updating to JB my screen seems to be reluctant to switch off.

 

I have Smart Stay activated but the eye logo only pops up once and does not put the screen on standby (the phone is on my desk and not being looked at).

 

I also have the screen timeout set to 2 minutes and when testing it today it had not switched off after 4 minutes and the eye logo only came up the once again.

 

It always worked flawlessly on ICS, anyone else had this issue or know of a way to rectify it?

Not seen the issue on mine but i suggest you re-select your time out setting in case it wasn't registered by the update.

This one is really strange... Since updating to JB, my in car charger does not seem to charge as fast. At times it seems to just slow down the rate of battery drain, I have implemented a few battery fixes as suggested by other users (turn off unneccasary syncing, limit background proccesses to 2, remove unwanted apps) and hopefully this will resolve the problem.

 

Not really looking for a fix, more to know that soembody else is going through the same problem. Just to clarify, i have changed the charger twice & tried charging via my radio USB but still no joy.

Car charges and USB's are generally on outputting 0.5amp which isn't enough if the phone is been used.
