lol, cromptons grove/turners avenue area so im like so far west im nearly in elderslie lol - not quite near smack city. Although all the stories people have told me about the street along from ASDA (ferguislie park)... took a drive through there one day when the main road was closed, it dosent look as bad as people make it out to be - i was surprised they have made new houses and put junkies back into them to be fair, ive lived here for 4-5 years now and never had any bother, i think people make paisley out to be far worse than it actually is.

I dont think the neds want to mess with a crazy ayrshire bitch either lol. I will give as good as i get.

 

[funkylogik]

Well a wudny mess wi u lol.
aye the violence in paisley has calmed down a lot but ive seen my fair share of it lol. Ferguslie Park (Feegy) isnt so bad, i have friends there. Youre far enough away from the town centre to be away frm it. Around Well Street is bad. Heroin is a huge problem though, you seen the queues outside the chemists for methadone in the morning? And the town is slowly dying, the big shopping centres have ruined it. I love Paisley though

lol, one of my work colleagues usually slags me for the way i say fegi, brediland road and lounsdale (pub). shes like you need to learn to speak right ha! To be honest i haven't actually seen much like that, im very rarely in town (just because its dead). i quite like a visit to hamishes hoose for some fodder lol. my docs is up king street and i never see any junkies there either - i must walk about with my eyes shut, or im up too early in the mornings for them.

I like where i live, used to be a country bumpkin but i hate the busy life of Glasgow, so paisley is so handy for everything, m8, airport, M77, Xscape, phoenix, etc.

Whats the chances of a faulty sim card causing the reboot issues im seeing?

I stuck sim card in an old nokia N73 this morning to do me at work but ive just noticed it was off...... coincidence? (it is old right enough and it never came back on).

It is not impossible, easiest way to check is get hold of your networks PAYG SIM and try that. Usually 99p from newsagents. You don't even have to top it up or register yourself to it, just stick it in and call it to make sure its working.

Update:

I took the phone to carphone warehouse on my lunch break, they tech guys said he has alot of S3's with various issues they have a backlog and that you can go back to the 4.2.1 (or was it 4.1.2) that if i wanted to leave the phone with them it would take approx 14 days - eh don't think so. Apparently he said samsung are also working on a patch too.

I will have a bash at flashing the 4.3 tonight and wiping everything, with a new sim card to rule out mine (just incase) and take it from there. I see there is alot of angry people on the Samsung mobile facebook page lol. I couldn't find any official update from samsung about a patch though.

 

[fleenio]

Finally......i THINK (fingers crossed) i have fixed the issue, re flashed phone, wiped cache and did a reset just to make sure (all without the sim in). Have set all my apps up again, etc the only thing that annoyed me was for some reason google back up never remembered my wifi passwords so have to enter them again. Will see how the phone goes over the next few days.

Thanks to all for helping me - i couldn't have done it without you.

 

[dynomot]

Google never ever remembers Wi-Fi passwords. It is a Google fault not a phone one.

 

[dmcjr22]

[fleenio]

I9300XXUGMK6_BTU using odin.

however i have bad news..... all was well last night but this morning.... boot loop again but my battery life seems worse! Boooo! Not so sure i might be software related - i will take it into one of the smart centers for them to have a look, otherwise I need to wait on a patch being released.

Just root it n flash a custom rom pal. Samsung firmware is poison for this otherwise amazin phone.
Mrs Logik goes to Hamishes on a thursday night for the kareoke.

[fleenio]

Well i took the phone to a service center - i don't have much confidence in their services the receptionist wasn't very competent so she didn't give me much confidence, hopefully the repair guys are better. They are supposed to be looking at it in on Monday, so will let you know how it goes and what they say the problem is.

 

[funkylogik]

Nice one pal :beer:
