Just upgraded from an S2 to an S3 and this is the first ROM I have tried. Liking it so far.

I am having one issue however that I cant seem to figure out. When I connect my phone to my PC via USB cable and DO NOT have Debugging enabled the connection works perfectly and I can transfer files, make updates, ect. However as soon as I turn Debugging ON the connection with the PC seems to drop and reconnect 3 times a second. To the point where my PC is beeping all the time because it is recognizing a new device and on the notification tab on my S3, connected to PC flashes off an on. As soon as I disable debugging it goes back to normal. I have tried reinstalling drivers, booting the phone already plugged into pc, switching to camera mode, turning the pc and phone both off and starting together and none of these things help.

Has anyone else experienced this? Thanks.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hottbill:
I fixed this problem by installing the naked universal galaxy s3 drivers.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SSJSayajin:
Unfortunately no luck with that. I uninstalled the current driver pack and then as soon as I plugged the phone back in I have the same problem. Other ideas?

youtube issue

I'm going to apoligize up front if this has already been covered but when I try to watch a video in the youtube app I get "connection to the server lost touch to retry." Also if I try to watch a video in the rolle youtube app I get a message saying "there was a problem playing touch to retry." Yes I did a fresh install, did all the wipes, fixed perms and everything required (3 times) and still have this problem. Can someone please help? Really want to start using the rolletube to download some dubstep. ...thanks in advance....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xeks:
That might be your problem, lol jk. I had some YouTube issues with the 720 HD YouTube available on XDA but so far no issues with the stock player.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SF Steven:
Clark only puts out solid updates, unlike a lot of other devs...

9:00am: v3.2.455.2.9 has a new boot animation option!;

9:45am: v3.2.455.2.10 has a new boot sound option!;

9:52am: v3.2.455.2.11 re-syncs the new boot animation & boot sound from v9 and v10...

Not that such an active dev cycle for minor updates is bad (lord knows, I was on that treadmill with a few previous phone ROMS and loved every second of it because it "felt" more exciting), but seriously, Clark releases major upgrades once they've been prepared, marinated, seasoned, cooked and taste-tested to perfection.

Blah, blah, blah, Clark44 is a god amongst men...moving on to your OG question, I have one for you: what is "missing" from the ROM now?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] interhawk1:
Yes this has happen to me randomly on a clean install with 2.0
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jordan23945bulls:
If you set the snooze to 3 minutes it will ring again when it cuts of the first time, kinda sucks that it doesn't ring the first time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jhuff83:
Looks like it's back to 2.0 for me. Just had my phone go unresponsive for about the 10th time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nextohel:
I reverted back to 2.0 a couple of days ago. Solid as a rock.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DurhamHusker:
This has happened to me with a lot of LJ7 ROMs. Including stock rooted. Works for a week or two and then I start having problems. I'm beginning to believe its a installed user app somewhere that's going awry. No sure.

I've been running FreeGS3 3.0 for several days with zero problems. I've seen Facebook acting really strange over the past month or so with their recent updates. So I've started with leaving all the Facebook auto sync and update stuff turned off ... see how that goes.

But so far no issues with v3 of this ROM. Hopefully that continues.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] HaXed_out:
No issues here .. installed version 3 directly over top of 2. Did not clear any data or delete anything. Everything.g still works a charm!

Anyone using Morphology 1.4 on freegs3 2.0? I went through the installer but now the phone wont get past the splash screen. Just goes black after splash.

Did you load the modded system ui in the morphology op?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hellraiser2011:
Has anyone been having battery drain issues with v3? My battery is going from 100% to 0% in less then 6 hours and that's over night while i'm sleeping. With v2 I could go for 2 days without charging. I even bought a new battery and still same issue.

I'm on v3 Stock Kernel.

And I've searched and haven't found a solid answer :)

Hey I have been using 2.0 for quite some time and just switched to 3.0 yesterday. I am having problems with WIFI connections. At my work place and home I get an error saying Network Disabled. Poor Connection for WIFI, so I just stay on 3G all the time. I stay right next to the router and I get FULL wifi bars. Any ideas? I tried searching and it seems noone has this problem.

There's a mod for GS2 ... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1580379

Does anyone know of a mod for GS3?

Most of the newer ROMs have this ... they're calling it "Lockscreen Torch" ... anyone know which are as stable as FreeGS3?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MontyPyFly:
If it worked for GS2, it should work for GS3... but......... Always make a nandroid first. It does change the UI, so it might mess up some themes or Morphology if you have any of that.

I might test it myself later, but if you beat me too it, let us all know.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MontyPyFly:
Jordan, dude. For months, you have had quite a lot of issues that I haven't seen anyone else mention. I hate to beat a dead horse, but have you actually done a clean install? I mean clean... wipeing system, and factory reset, not just wiping caches. You should have to start from scratch, signing in to google and everything, and if there is any trace of your previous rom, background, anything, you will no it's not clean.

Just trying to help. You got some serious bad mojo in your phone from something.... :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xCovErtWolFx757:
It goes in phone. Just to let you know. Don't use mobile odin. It doesn't work to my knowledge. Use the PC one

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jordan23945bulls:
You really think I would say I have problems if I did a dirty flash? :eek: I've had like 2 issues and other have had it too. I moved the notications to the phone they were in my sd card, maybe that fixes it. They shouldn't be resetting like that though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MontyPyFly:
I wouldn't think you would say you had problems if you dirty flashed, but you would be surprised how many people don't understand what a clean install is.

I really do want to help, but you have had more than 2 problems in the last two months,

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] vwlove09:
The Led Notifications for Go SMS work perfectly on this ROM. Is this because of the OTA or was this fixed strictly within the ROM? TIA.

I honestly take no credit in that. Looks like the OTA fixed that.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bytes2bits:
Thanks Clark. I had already tried the PRL and Profile but that didn't help. I'm on LG8 which I'm not so thrilled with so on the next rom flash I'll choose LF9 (thanks to the Aroma installer) and see if that helps. I didn't for one minute think it was the rom. It's quite simply impeccable. Thanks so much for your dedication and hard work.

wow i dont even have my s3 yet but i cant wait to run this rom. Plus im a sonic fan so when I heard the name of this i knew i had to check this out
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Naddict:
It's sprint... The network has been noticeably screwed as of late.... Their website shows work being done and or promise of future work... Hard to discern what really is going on... Frustrated along with you... Also, forced me to buy...(gulp) roam control... But, be warned, if you use too much roaming data, the black helicopters will follow you around and you get a midnight visit from aliens... :):D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bytes2bits:
Roam Control works on this phone???? I've owned it for years but I read it didn't work on here. Please tell me if you have been able to use it on your GS3.

I barely use any roaming data (and none since this problem). It's only to send an email here and there if I happen to be roaming. But now the email gets stuck due to no data.

If you had it BEFORE flashing .7, maybe you are looking for Go Launcher. It has the most transitions I've seen, but it wasn't included in this version. Apex only has four transitions that I see.

Hey Clark is there a way you can put in 0.0.8 the CRT animation, kill back button and also vibration patterns. Thanks for all the hard work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] clark44:
CRT was broken by Samsung. You should have checked my previous posts. I answered that question several times. Kill back button is doable. I will add it to the to do list. IDK what vibration patterns you are even referring to honestly. Sorry man.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shinesthru:
Just thought I'd share my kick ass battery life.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Naddict:
"supported" and "working" apps are two different things... The app might work but the developer won't support it if you have problems with it or if you screw up your phone ... Ymmv... If you already own the app, why not try it?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shades333:
Hey guys my apologies if this has been asked already. I have done a clean install with a million wipes of everything. When I attempt to use titanium backup pro it will not install "missing apps with data". The first app with attempt to restore but the progress bar won't move and will eventually need to be force stoped.

Any help will be appreciated

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] .Bambino:
I have read it Clark but thought it was something you was working on. Anyway as far as vibration patterns when you get a text you can enable it to be long vibration or multiple short vibration etc. Not having that CRT animation really sucks. Oh well I guess.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Bigben7:
I'm going to buy it then I assumed it wasn't working.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] clark44:
Oh ok. Both those features are from CM i believe ;) i will see what i can do.

Looks like you dident allow it root permission. Uninstall and reinstall and try again.

Give it a day for the new rom to "settle". rename Gsiff_Daemon in the system/bin folder. and search for "battery" or "battery drain" in this thread, it's been answered many many many many many many many many many many times :p

This ROM has the best battery life I've seen with the Stock kernel.

I'm was just trying to help figure out what might be wrong with your set up. Thousands (20,000+) have downloaded this rom, and very few have issues like yours. It's a conundrum. You said you had 2 problems, I found over ten in the last two months, so I thought maybe you dirty flashed.... I will no longer offer you advice.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] busyychild:
Any way to enable a blocking mode notification widget, or is it anticipated in the next release?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fallguy1:
Agreed.

My upgrade has gone well from a battery performance perspective.

Performance on the old version .2 was also good.

Screenshot attached. Was getting 14-15hrs average after many months on old rom.

After only a few days I am basically back at it - around 15hours on a full charge given my typical use (push email in high volume, lots of screen time, etc.)

What do you rename Gsiff_deamon??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] imaconeheadXD:
Add .bak to the end so it's gsiff_daemon.bak
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] galaxys3man30:
Use a root explore app es root explore works great its free in playstore and then go into settings give it root access and make ur system writable and the goto system/bin and scroll down til you find it and long press on it and tap rename and then just add .bak and then exit and reboot

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shinesthru:
Use the search feature please.

On a separate note, I saw some people were having an issue where the phone would not wake up, requiring a battery pull or a reboot. I also read that it is being worked on for a future release. Besides not using the AOSP lockscreen, has anyone found a workaround? If it was just for myself I would either just deal with it or revert to v2, but I am running v3 on my wife's phone and she had little patience. :)

Edit for clarity, I am not using the AOSP lockscreen, just the swipe with no other options selected.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] 8er:
Knowing there is a when is so much nicer than empty promises. I used to follow another dev. They'd claim 'tomorrow', 'uploading', 'for sure today' and not follow through sometimes a week after an 'uploading'. This ROM / dev is a welcome and a refreshing experience.

Not really. I don't really notice much. The toggle just changed size but everything works fine for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MontyPyFly:
3.0 its self is very good. I thnk the issues come from there being Sooooooo many options out there, it's hard to cover every possibility.

Fresh install with stock kernel works great, add kernels, morphs, 3rd party tweaks at your own risk :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jordan23945bulls:
Go to any app and put it on landscape then bring the pulldown down bring it back up put the app on portrait then close it, that fixes it.

Should have thought of that. Thanks. I'll go try that now.
