Galaxy S3 contact list (phone book) slowly - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Hello, greetings from Deutchland and I would like to sincerely all those present here to read my lines. Many thanks for that.
I've also been in many other German forums but not yet received any answer much more useful and now I hofffe that you can help me please
I use a Galaxy S3 WanamLite 2.0. But unfortunately I have a problem with the request that you help me.
When I try to open the contacts on the Samsung does it take so four seconds before I can see the contacts. then after that when I open another application and then go to the contacts it opens instantly. Do I use the phone for quite some time no more and then unlock the screen an like my contacts back open again so it takes so four seconds.
I want to open the contact list .... this takes about 4-5 seconds to open it ... then again I do anything else with dm phone and open the contact list then it goes fast ... then I put on the phone for 30 minutes away and it goes into sleep mode ... then I wake it up again and again call on the contact list again and it takes a small eternity .... I would like to change that I do not always wait 4-5 seconds be open to the contact list is.
Thx

Having the same problem here, after que last firmware upgrade... even when I receive a call, it takes some seconds to recognize the number and show the contact picture...

My S3 phone there have been no such problems. You can go the franceyou online to learn more.

its all clear
Andreas dont worry, nothing is wrong with your phone, its the samsung theme(touchwiz). i have cyanogen mod 10 which is very fast, i can asure you its fast, if you dont want to install new rom, find a new kernel to speed up your phone.
I was just using my buddy's gs3 today and his phone has original rom and yes it was slow in response.
So, there fore your phone is good, no worries. :good:
Edit: He did have alot of apps so if that is same thing with you. Factory Reset your phone by going in settings. its a hassle but it would make you happy though.

yeah mine too...pretty annoying....Im on cm9 but i found out the voice/sound is quite low compare to stock althought the contact load very quickly....those samsung guys who read this thread please do something with contact app.........

My contacts open slow
I have Galaxy S3 and I have same problem. I receive update 4.1.2 and my phone goes slow, when I was on 4.0.4 phone works perfect. Did facoty reset help my?

Hi

I had the same issue, I tried something that's worked. Go to your Google Now settings. Under Phone Search, remove 'Contacts'. That fixed it for me. The downside is that 'send text to blah blah' and 'call blah blah' won't work in Google Now. I barely used that anyway, so I can manage. Hope this helps.

I think I found a solution. Go in to contacts>Contacts to display>Customized list>uncheck everything except the google account.
My phone app and contacts app now open instantly. I think the lag was because of the samsung account.
Try and report.

That worked for me,
Thank you toadpole

I''ve the same problem. I've noticed something that may help someone figure out the problem and a possible solution. That is when I activate airplane mode the contacts list's speed becomes normal. When I deactivate airplane mode again it becomes slow again. Activating Wi-Fi or Bluetooth in airplane mode doesn't make it slow so I guess it has something to do with sim card.

Had the same problem - Found a solution!
Hey man,
I have been using an app called ExDialer.
it does everything just as good and doesn't lag.
This one cost a few bucks, maybe you can find one for free.
I personally don't mind supporting the guys.
Works great for me!

few questions about sensation

i ve searched but could not find the answers for the questions below.
1 wheres the setting( if theres one) to make new window go straight to home page instead of giving me a list of those damn useless links from history..
2 the phone automatically turns the screen on at midnight for few seconds every night. i dont remember any setting that would make it do so.
3 the yahoo email just randomly stops working
with wifi disabled i would try to send an email and it would tell me that my settings are incorrect, and then 2 hours later i try to send another email and it works fine. then next day or few days later i get same thing unabe to send message and its completely random as far as i can tell.
anyone?
i honestly cant find anything on google
With regards to the homescreen no there is no setting. You just have to make your Home page part of your bookmarks and click it when you open a new window.
With your other problems I would suggest a factory reset - all seems a bit wierd.

How to silence a call (not cut it) ?

[2 deep breaths]...
Okay, I have searched it but there was no answer corresponding to Atrix 2.
A call is coming and I want to silence it. I will not cut it because I dont want caller to know that I deliberately cut his call. In E71 there if I press right menu button, i can silence all calls (which stops vibration + ringtone in between). How do I do it for Atrix 2? This is not for all callers, I should be able to decide whose call I want to silent at that particular moment.
I dont want temporary/workarounds like keep it in silent mode/press volume button all the way downwards, etc. Thanks.
Press power button. Silences the call and locks the screen with out hanging up.

Just Press the volume up button once when you are getting a incoming call it will silence the ringer.

Question:
I dont know who deleted my post which said that my screens automatically shuts off. So i adjusted my screen timeout to 1minute. But still the screen turns off after 5 seconds. This is very annoying because I keep my phone on table, reading something on it, and suddenly the screen turns off after 5seconds. Help !

I am thinking of simple things first, make sure that you are not on maximum battery saver mode. Go to settings --> battery and data manager --> battery mode --> select the performance mode..
See if this solves the problem.. if it doesnt then let me know if you have installed any battery miser kind of apps.

Ok, will try that. Meanwhile, other issues:
1) I downloaded the facebook app. But it never logs in. It keeps on saying "loading". Similarly, when I try to sync social networking app/widget, youtube doesnt sync. It says "youtube sync failure". Why is that?
2) I recieve an SMS containing a mobile number. In E71, I could select the number and save it to a contact. This is not possible in Atrix 2. When I recieve an SMS containing a mobile number, there is no option to save it. This is the basic requirement of an SMS. Any ideas?

Pattern lock?
Is there a pattern lock feature for A2 like in case of galaxy s2 and iphone? If yes, how to enable it? All I have is number/passcode lock feature. In IPhone, the passcode is 4 digits and after that we dont have to press enter key, but in A2, i have to enter passcode and then press enter key (which is too much of extra pain).
Settings --> location & security --> setup lock screen --> pattern
Just dig into settings you will find everything you want.

Pattern option is "disabled by device administrator".
I see what is happening here. Since I had setup my phone to use my office email, i have having such problems like screen automatically shutting down and inability to use pattern lock !!
Thats my best guess.

yes, that is because you are now forced into a corporate security policy. No way around that unless you stop using your office exchange account on your device. an easier way is to forward your mail to gmail, and setup a way to do this over https. This is all on the gmail site, so don't ask how to do it in here.

This should have been the first thing that you posted, little info like this my friend is vital..
Android gives you freedom, use it and start exploring.. it doesnt mean that people here dont like noobs, everybody here started pretty much as noobs, i still consider myself a noob.

All u hv2 do is to PLAY with ur fone dude ....
xplore everythin .... make mistakes (only when u hv powerful tool of flashing back ) ... try each n every settin
mistakes make u learn faster (not @all intention of lecturing u :laugh: )
So I installed a new sandisk 16gb card microSD card yesterday (after formatting it first in PC, then in phone) and put some songs in it. More problems started:
1) Randomly, the phone says "no sim card". I have to restart the phone to get my sim card working. This is frustrating.
2) When I woek up in morning, the phone was dead. Something drained the battery to 0%. Why?
3) The notification was automatically set to some random song. Why?
Have you tried taking out the memory card.. see if it solves your problem.. though few things are strange in your case, but take out your new memory card out.. and pls dont ask why because there are already ample threads on "class 10 memory cards not working with A2"

Samsung Galaxy 3 with CyanogenMod 10

Hello Everyone,
Please excuse me if what i write is not on the right field or it doesn't make sense because i'm new to flashing ROMs,development etc.
Yesterday i spent a few hours to flash CyanogenMod 10 on my Samsung Galaxy 3 and everything went perfect even if it was my first attempt and i want to say a huge thanks to marcellusbe for his amazing job.
I want to mention some issues that i encountered:
1.It's impossible to move apps on sd card,not even with Titanium backup and if i try this from Settings>Apps>On sd card>Select an app>Move to sd card it says that couldn't move app.
2.Whenever i try to use another keyboard from Settings>Language and Input>Keyboard and Input Methods here a window pops up with my current keyboard and i press Set up input methods i get Unfortunately,Settings has stopped.
3.On Homescreen it's impossible to scroll wallpaper right or left even if i checked it on Settings>Launcher>Homescreen>Scroll Wallpaper.
4.There is a "bug" on the sound of my device that whenever i play music or sound i hear some noise that shouldn't be there.
5.When i try to make a call sometimes i don't hear a thing and sometimes the others don't hear me.
That's it for now.I would love to send these directly to marcellusbe but i can't find a way to do that.Please give me some tips or solutions.
Thank everybody for your time.

Bypass Samsung Account Galaxy S5 OK3 (Without PC and OTG)

Hello Guys... i recently got a Galaxy S5 from Ebay that unfortunately was locked by a Samsung account due an abnormal factory reset... there are many ways to bypass this on previous versions of android but unfortunately mine has the last update OK3.. After many attempts to bypass this I was about to give up until i got an idea that finally worked..
In the previous versions of android it was very easy to do it because you could open a web browser very easy but in this update the people of Samsung remove all these options... but... they forgot one...
1. Basically what you have to do is connect to a free WIFI from any store that request you a sign in... for example in my work we have a guest wifi that is free but in order to make it work you need to enter some information like your name and email address...
2. Once you get to this screen enter the information and accept everything so you can log in to the WIFI.. after that a web browser will open and that's what you need!! if the browser do not open just try to select any text and press the search button so you can open the browser..
3. Once the browser is open go to the Playstore webpage, after this the Playstore application will open.
4. Enter your Gmail account and search the app EASYTOUCH
5. Download the app and run it... this app will open a floating bubble in your screen that will allow you to open any app on your phone or go to settings etc...
6. After this you will be able to do anything you want on your phone, well almost anything lol.. you wont be able to receive any calls... but you can make calls receive sms and also send sms... something is something
7.. I suggest downloading a Launcher like Cheeta and a screen locker like CM LOCK. Sometimes the bubble from Easytouch disappear and you wont be able to do anything unless you restarts your phone.
As you can see the whole point of this is to open a web browser so you can install any app from Playstore that will let you use your phone "normally". If the browsers doesn't open just select any text as you were trying to copy it but instead of pressing the copy button press the search button...
I'm sorry if my explanation was not clear... English is my second language....
Wouldn't it be much better to return the defective item to the eBay seller on the grounds that it was probably stolen, and then buy one that works?

Yes and No... 99% of the time yes it was stolen... but there is nothing I can do about that, actually it will be a lot of of rework on my side... i will have to open a case in ebay.. wait tons of days... send the phone.. get a refund... buy another one... wait like another week.... So I decided to keep it.... yes it may be wrong buying stolen phones... but I think there are worst things than that and you wont stop doing them... so.... just keep an eye on yours so it doesn't get stolen...

Irritating things with the Global software...

Hi,
As we now probably all know, the Global version of this ROM lacks a lot of features : no gestures, no dark mode...
But even without those missing parts, it is still irritating...
Here are the three things that are bothering me :
- 1°) the notifications : I have 2 SIM cards inside that thing. It constantly reports that I have a new voice message. But whatever SIM card answering machine I call, tells me "You have no new message". I erase the notification. I keeps popping up again...
- 2°) the dialer : when I get a call, I have to swipe up to answer it. On every other phone, a short swipe is enough to answer the call. On this device, I have to swipe up to the top of the device for it to understand that I would like to answer the call...
- 3°) whatever I do, the default app selected for SMS messaging is not kept after a reboot. I use Textra. I select it as the default app. Each time the phone is rebooted, I have to tellit that I want to use Textra again as default mesaging app.
Do you guys have those problems also ?
Regards.
It's not a real problem or bug, but really irritating
I have some more:
I know it's nitpicking buuuuut
1. When watching YouTube vids and touching the triggers by accident, it brings up the scroll bar and does not go away untill you let go of the triggers.
2. Can't silence notifications.
3. Unreliable OTG USB file transfers (gets stuck)
4. When increasing the volume on Bluetooth devices, it only goes up by 0 or 2
5. My alarm clock never works
6. Switching between Sim Cards is super slow
7. Searching for settings is difficult
And some more things that I can't think of the top of my head.

Hi,
Hum... That can be sorted I think
1°) About your thing with the button triggers : install Button Mapper. Open it. Choose to add a new button and tap the left or right trigger button. Once created, say you don't want any action to be configured. You should be good to go
2°) You can silence notifications. But you have to do that under "Notifications" and not under "Sound"... Go figure !!!
3°) Hum... Have you tried to format your card to another format like FAT ? I don't use that feautre so I can't really tell.
4°) Yes. I think that is true. But will try to confirm later when I'll use it in my car audio.
5°) Mine works... I think.
6°) It is not unusually slow here...
7°) The way they organized the settings is just... super stupid.
Conclusion : I think I will try to install the chinese ROM and root it to see if I can use that with better results.
Hi,
Another thing is totally stupid to me : that is the fact that you cannot pin an app to stick even if Recents are cleared.
So I can have gestures enabled because the stupid people at Nubia removed that from the EU/US ROM.
But that requires access to "Accessibility" services.
As soon as I clear recents, that feature is disabled...
And as it is gestures => no more control over device !!!
SHEER STUPIDITY !!!!
All in all, I think I will return the device within the next 3 days within my right of withdrawal.
Hardware is brilliant. Softwa
I will be returning mine also. Such a shame the software sucks.

Let us know how that goes. I've seen several posts on other forums complaining that Nubia is not answering emails when it comes to returns and RMA's for the Red Magic 3. Some have started disputes with Paypal to try and get their money back.

Let us know how that goes. I've seen several posts on other forums complaining that Nubia is not answering emails when it comes to returns and RMA's for the Red Magic 3. Some have started disputes with Paypal to try and get their money back.

I emailed them yesterday that I want to refund the phone due to problems and they sent me a form to fill in a few hours ago. [email protected]

how did you return it?
I have no return option in order details
also how did they accept it if you used the phone? they say in their policy that the phone must be unused

Did you fill in the form they emailed you? Is the case number the order number?

As long as you return it in the first 15 days you can return it used or not, and I emailed their customer support to return it

The form is not accepting my IMEI number. Did you have this problem?

I am returning mine as well due to these software issues, and I received the same response about DHL. They did not say they would not take it even though I had used it, they agreed that I could return it because I was within my 15 days. I would assume as long as you didn't damage it (screen cracks, water damage, etc), they should still be able to process the refund.
For me, GLS is the courier. Never heard of them.
I hope if they get so much people returning the device because of it's lousy software, they may consider improving it...
Let's wait and hope...
Anyone had their refund yet?

Hi,
As we now probably all know, the Global version of this ROM lacks a lot of features : no gestures, no dark mode...
But even without those missing parts, it is still irritating...
Here are the three things that are bothering me :
- 1°) the notifications : I have 2 SIM cards inside that thing. It constantly reports that I have a new voice message. But whatever SIM card answering machine I call, tells me "You have no new message". I erase the notification. I keeps popping up again...
- 2°) the dialer : when I get a call, I have to swipe up to answer it. On every other phone, a short swipe is enough to answer the call. On this device, I have to swipe up to the top of the device for it to understand that I would like to answer the call...
- 3°) whatever I do, the default app selected for SMS messaging is not kept after a reboot. I use Textra. I select it as the default app. Each time the phone is rebooted, I have to tellit that I want to use Textra again as default mesaging app.
Do you guys have those problems also ?
Regards.
It's not a real problem or bug, but really irritating

I notice these weird things too but doesn't bother me too much. Coming off several other Chinese devices lately these are not so bad and hopefully get dealt with by a software update or by someone here.
Have they ever fixed the touch trigger issue with YouTube?

From version 2.07 to version 2.10 on YouTube, triggers did not fix!
