I'm using the stable version and I have the call problem. The other person can't hear me and I can't even hear the dialling "beeps".

I've tried a couple of modems (LFB, LG8, LH1) but none has solved the problem.

I'm in Portugal and my phone is unlocked (using Vodafone).

Can anyone give me a suggestion of how can I solve this?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] box4m:
Im having some weird problem, since the "stable build" really, but it just started the other day..

when i connect it to the PC, sometimes i cant see anything on the internal sdcard, sometimes i can see only some of it.

mp3s that used to be recognized as ringtones, arent found nomore when im gonna choose ringtone.

wtf ?

edit: this only happends with CM/aosp, have only tried cm9 different builds etc, full wipe and what not, its just not working what i said above, the samsung rom ive tried it works..???

same thing with cm10.. this is odd?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] labbe-:
there should be a newer update coming if it isnt on play yet.

e: yes 5.0.1.4 is in play

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] box4m:
how would updating rom manager solve it tho?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] labbe-:
because there was a bug in the previous update that caused the media files on the sdcard not to be recognized

i don't use rom manager so i have not had this issue so cant actually test if updating will help though, if not, google is your friend

Sent from my GT-I9300
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] box4m:
only reason i had rom manager installed is cause it came with cm9, i never used it etc, wouldnt i need to, for the bug to occur?

---------- Post added at 10:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:54 PM ----------

5.0.1.4 didnt do any difference, so im not updating to it when it asks, its working before i update to that

---------- Post added at 10:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:42 PM ----------

edit: with 5.0.1.1 that i had on my nandroid, ringtones works, but i cant see the contents of internal sdcard with it... so i guess theres something wrong in that version aswell

Cm9 stable, amazing Rom.

I can't see music controls widget in lock screen when I'm playing on Apollo or Google music and lock the device.

Playing on Spotify and locking, when you press power you can see music controls only for a while (1 second) and then disappears.

It's working ok in cm9 stable on other devices (sgs2 for example)

Thanx!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] iperezru:
cm9 stable.

Problems with stock camera app. See attachment.

Suddenly, trying to access you get this error message "can't connect with the camera".

Sometimes it happens if you open another camera app without exit. It's like its stock app wasn't able to close other apps to open itself.

Anyway, after a while all you get executing stock camera app is a black screen.

Ideas?

Thanx!

This rom fixed black clipping issue.

This rom fixed black clipping issue. All grey levels are visible. With stock rom i had problems to see gray levels 1 to 8, now i can see it perfectly.:good:

EDIT: Will it be please possible to adjust gamma correction (i dont mean gamma correction of automatic brightness)? Even when all grey levels are visible, the colors when viewing for example movies are still dark. I have found some apps at Play store which can adjust contrast, but none can adjust gamma.

Dim LED

hey guys..just wanted to ask is there some kinda bug with the LED colors? it's pretty dim compared to cm10.

i've searched the whole thread but couldn't find a solution.any help is much appreciated :) i'm on the cm9 stable build.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] simonpcook:
I have tried this on my device and I am still having the same issue where NFC works correctly on the stock rom but not on either cm9 nightlies or stable (I am still getting the same "Firmware update FAILED" followed by it not being possible to turn it on with the cm9 roms).

I'm pretty sure its not a hardware fault with the device working (because it does work) but not sure where to look to try to fix it for me
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Notor1ouS-:
did anybody try a comparison between samsung rom and cm9 regarding battery life?

it feels like the battery drain is higher on cm9?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] manveru0:
actually I didn't compared it with a tool. But my feeling was the same. Stock rom is already well balanced when it comes to battery life and speed. Even better than CM9 in terms of battery drain. But just a feeling... ;)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ch33kster:
I feel that CM9 is slightly better than stock samsung rom in terms of battery life. My battery doesn't die as fast I feel. Probably depends on usage. We all know by now the screen eats most of the battery, thus if you are continuously using it, battery will definitely drain faster.

Another thing is you might want to try using Siyah Kernel with CM9. I feel a slight improvement in battery life with Siyah kernel than with the stock cm9 kernel. Sometimes I feel I am a bit paranoid when it comes to battery life but I feel I should just be natural with it instead of keep looking at my phone lol.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Kevin.Silbstedt:
Nope, not here. With Stock Rom and Siyah Kernel my S3 lasted up to 4/5 days in mostly idle (with Juice Defender, but i don't know, if that thing does any huge difference). Now, with CM9, I'm happy, if I get 2 days with the same scenario (again with Juice Defender).

I love the rom, how fast it is, how it looks. I love, that it doesn't prompt me to install some goddamn OTA Update which doesn't work, because of Siyah Kernel (and for which I couldn't care less). I love it's customizability and all the settings, but the battery life seriously sucks. Too bad CM9 is a dead end and who nows, when CM10 gets polished enough for everyday usage with good battery life.

But I really won't get back to Stock Rom, I really hated the UI and the OTA Updates.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Ev0d3vil:
Does this ROM need the sd card to boot? I remembered using cyanogen and when i removed the sd card, the phone refused to boot.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Qliratu:
No u do not require a sd-card to boot cyanogenmod. I have tested with and without.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] gee2012:
You can disable samsung updates, delete Fotaclient.apk and FWupgrade.apk with Root Explorer. Also can change the launcher.

What modem are you using? Make sure its a ICS one. And reflash latest nightly
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ch33kster:
I have asked this before, but just want to confirm, I am currently running on CM9, I do not need to wipe data/factory reset if I want to upgrade to cm10. Wiping cache and dalvik cache only will do the trick right?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] kizax:
No.... You do not need to wipe etc.

Only install it from zip

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] manveru0:
yeah, you're right about the screen. As I've mentioned before, no tools were used to see how fast the battery drains down on both stock and custom rom. So just a feeling with no real value ;) I'm always using my own kernel by the way, thus no differences there.

Can anybody confirm whether droidwall works when connected to 3G? It doesn't work for me, and I'm wondering whether it can be worked around.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ch33kster:
Sorry that I can't answer your question, but allow me to ask how did you even know that it is working?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] fenstre:
Simple test to see whether droidwall is working: Change the droidwall rules to disable your web browser from browsing the internet. Connect to 3G. Open the browser and see if you can browse.

Another way you know it's not working is if an app that's blocked is using your data (check data usage in settings).

I just tested this a second time and it *did* correctly block the web browser. The problem seems intermittent, but I've noticed a few programs sending/receiving data that shouldn't be able to, including Dropbox and Google Music.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Mize:
I've no doubt CM9 drains the battery faster than stock or Supernexus JB. If the latter didn't have the memory leak issue I'd be using it still.

With very consistent usage I've gone from a full day of hard use to swapping out my battery around 5PM with CM9.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Razyre:
I downloaded CM9 and flashed it to my S3 after following the instructions to the letter. Everything went smoothly and haven't had any problems to report yet with the ROM.

However, I did go ahead and restore apps via Titanium Backup (free) only keeping the apps+data. When I tried to restore the apps, they all restored fine, but most of them with external data did not restore properly. Apps like SonicCD have to re-download. This isn't what I had hoped for. Only doodle jump seemed to keep any app data whatsoever and there was a hint of it in Sixaxis, but that hope soon diminished.

Is there any reason why this has happened? Could someone run me through how to get my apps so backed up and restored so I do have my data?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] demc1982:
Hi, what is the LFB modem you say to install from the rom manager? I can't see it. Also can i change the background colour in the sms app? Great rom and guide btw. Done my first ever flash with no probs at all
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] YDardeer:
Search these forums for the LFB modem. There is a thread with a list of tons of modems for the s3.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ch33kster:
Actually i don't understand why don't you guys use the stock rom? I think the best modem for your phone is the modem that came with your phone. Am I not right?

---------- Post added at 10:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:09 AM ----------

I think the reason is due to external data. Store your apps all in internal data. I use titanium backup too and i don't face such problem cos i stored everything in my internal storage instead of external sd card.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] vegaman:
We don't use the stock ROM because CM offers more features and doesn't have the bloat of the stock ROM.

The modem hardware is the same so you can change the firmware side of it, but some ROMs/modems get updated more often than others and the updates could include fixes/improvements. Some modems could also work better for certain networks, so it's hard to say what the 'best modem' is, if you want you can try different ones and compare signal and battery drain and find the best modem for you.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ch33kster:
Oops my bad, I mean stock modem instead of stock rom. I myself is using CM9 too. Ok thanks for the explanation.

By the way, are most of you on CM10 already? Or still updating CM9 nightly?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] vegaman:
It seems to be split a bit. CM10 itself is still incomplete, and on Mali devices (most Samsung devices) JB suffers memory leaks, which is keeping a lot of people (including me) away from it. Hopefully the memory leaks will be solved once Samsung releases JB source, until them I'm happy enough with CM9.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ch33kster:
Same thoughts man. Are you on CM9 stable? Or the latest nightly dated on 20120819?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] vegaman:
Stable, IIRC nothing actually changed between stable and that nightly. The buildbox was just carrying on with the nightly builds until someone stopped it.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ch33kster:
Same opinion man. I prefer stable builds because I am quite anal about bugs.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Razyre:
I did though... Well I tried to anyway. There is no way to install on the external SD card a standard with the S3 as far as I knew. You have to use a mod. All of my data should've been in the internal SD card, I just presumed that "external" meant data that wasn't within the .apk (Apps like Sonic CD that need to download data from the app). I know it was in my internal SD infact because I cut all of the data off of the internal SD card to my computer and on my standard ROM it now needs to re-download everything.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Al3xI98O:
Hi, i've CM9 and i'm very happy :) but I think i have some issue... (i've the last nightly)

1. I do (from CWM 6.0.1.0 touch) a nandroid but from pc i don't see anything in <clockworkmod> folder...

2. I'm in doubt for my CWM but ROM MANAGER can't download it... at ~90% it crash!

Thank you!

PS: sorry for my bad english!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ch33kster:
Don't need to worry about anything man. There is an issue of Rom manager crashing, you aren't the only one so chill.

As for CWM, try to see if you are able to boot into CWM Recovery and Download mode, if yes, then there is no worries.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Al3xI98O:
Ok tank you :)

Yes, all works properly :)

I just cannot copy the nandroid on pc
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] saranyan:
Did you root your phone with cf-root? Had same rom manager freezing problem, Resolved by deleting the CWM app of cf-root.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Al3xI98O:
Yes with CFRoot ma I don't have CFRoot app... Now I have uninstall ROM Manager...
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ch33kster:
After rooting with Cfroot, you will get CWM manager, however after installing CM9 rom, there is no CWM manager, instead there is rom manager. I never use that to flash roms/kernels/modems, instead i reboot to CWM recovery by offing the phone and press and hold volume up, power and home buttons altogether, and then select the zip file i want to flash from there. I have the same problem of Rom manager freezing too, well not really a big deal I guess.

---------- Post added at 02:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:28 AM ----------

What do you mean by copying nandroid on PC? Basically you create a nandroid backup when in CWM Recovery mode, and the backup is stored in external SD in clockworkmod folder (if you have an sd card in the phone).
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Al3xI98O:
Ok... finally me too :)

I usually do a backup of nandroid on my pc... :) Two is better than one :) (this is a quote of a italian' spot!)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ch33kster:
Haha yea true about that too. By the way is there anyway to clear cache in cm9?

http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip for gapps. But this link seems troublesome, not sure if you will experience it on your side.

Anyway there is no Face Unlock. That is a feature of Samsung's rom, not present in Google Android, and CM9 is a pure google android rom so it doesn't have face unlock.

I have the same issue with the microphone.

When u are calling someone or u are being called they dont hear u.. its a common issue heared it ALLOT on this forum.

Quick fix (but quite inoying.. hate stupid sounds) is to disable lockscreen sounds (if u have it enabled) then reboot and enable the lockscreen sound, then reboot once more.

Okay but I'm a bit confused about all the different modems. I'm from germany and have a Telekom S3. Which one should I test?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] tux821:
I had something similar.

Incidental people not hearing me or I did not hear them or both.

For me checking G2 only in the mobile network settings did fix this.

May be something with the hd voice feature used by KPN / Netherlands provider.

See earlier posts in this thread.

I am, since a few weeks, happy with CM9, LFB radio/modem, and 2g only.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ch33kster:
You tried the stock modem? It is said that the stock modem that came with your phone is the best modem for your region. I am using stock modem myself too.
