After enabling developer options, S3 doesn't recognise USB (PC&charger) topic

Hello to all,

Phone is Galaxy S3 running JB 4.3 stock. I ''played'' with options, more precisely I was clicking Developer options, until the end (7 times - activate it)... because of my stupid curiosity. Now, with developer options being enabled, I'm having problems with phone doesn't recognize USB, whether I want to connect it to PC, or charge via charger.

On this link it's showed how to disable developer options, but you can't do it on Samsung phone (!!!). I know I have to do factory reset, but before that I want to backup everything I need. The thing is that currently I'm having 13% of a battery available, and I need to fix this USB/charger issue to be able to further work. Now it's turned off (doesn't charge in this state too), because if I run out of battery I'm scared I won't be able to start it up again.

P.S. I tried to check/uncheck USB debugging... nothing happens.

I know this is a 100% software problem, and I hope you guys know the solution. Googled it earlier, no similar topic.

Thanks in advance!

Enabling Gestures,popup msgbox,online themes,shutdown or restart with conformation. topic

******I am not responsible if you brick your phone or any other damage that causes to your phone.*******

Hi to all xolo Q800 x-edition users,
I have been using Xolo Q800 (x-edition) for a past year , used almost all custom roms but none of the gesture support in those roms made me happy. And finally I found few useful hidden features in the stock rom of xolo Q800 x-edition. You can enable gesture support such as smart pause,smart answer,smart dial, video control progress, air browse pic.,and more,popup msg box,online themes , Shutdown with conformation. I have attached a zip file( not a flashable file),unzip the given buildprop file,then go to device -> system -> replace the existing build.prop file with unzipped one. To replace the file use es explorer (recommended).and restart you're mobile go to settings and you will find the smart gesture option in which you can enable the gestures.when you receive any message you will be able to see the popup feature, open theme app where online tab appears you will be able to download few gionee themes.I am not sure if this works in xolo q800 because i own a x-edition version.For any queries you can mail me at rkishan04@gmail.com.

[Q] [I537] WiFi Enabling Automatically During Sleep topic

Hi. Yesterday my I537 4.4.2 AT&T S4 Active started automatically enabling its WiFi when in sleep. No changes were made that would enable this. I've checked all the WiFi settings and Location settings, but nothing has changed. Any idea what might cause this? Thanks.
