Created my CM account in 9/10, and the device info shows up at account.cyanogenmod.com after logging in, but I still haven't had any success with the "locate my device" feature yet. Not a big deal, though, since I didn't create the account for remote locate or wipe (Google already does that), but instead to be ready for when (I *hope*) CM adds a system settings sync feature.

Just peachy. Though, I'm cheating, because I just replaced my 1-year-old stock 2100mah battery with a $15 2200mah anker battery w/ NFC, since after a couple hundred charge cycles these batteries only hold something like 80% of their original capacity (depending on temperature, etc).

(hmm. I probably need to wipe my battery app stats to account for the new battery. Still good averages with an old battery on 10.2 though)

Can anyone point me to the right thread for a recovery issue?

Every time I try to backup my phone, I get an error saying "Error while making a backup image of /data!".

Battery led indicator

I searched but didn't find anything on this or maybe I missed it, anyway, is there a way to have the battery led turn off and stay off at night when charging other than disabling the option in the settings.

When I was on stock OS and put my phone on the dock at night to charge the led would come on indicating that the phone is charging, but when I launch the clock and put it on Night Mode, the led would turn off.

So is there a way I can do that on CM10.2

Cyanogenmod has sound profiles that you can enable. You can control volume for media, ringer, notifcations, change the sounds/ringtones for group of applications or per application, change wifi, bluetooth, mobile data, led and more all that in the Settings. :)

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
Go in an app category (example SMS), and you can see at the bottom LED. You can Enable, Disable or No override.

I have myself made a Night profile with quieter notifcations sounds and such. It gets activated based on my location using app Llama (could be done with Tasker too) so if I'm at home between 10pm and 7am during weekdays the night profile is automatically triggered. I could have set other conditions too, such as being on charge, bluetooth connected, near certain NFC tag etc etc.

There's only one purchase needed to do that sort of automation and it's Profile 4 Tasker

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.martinutils.profiletasker

That's what interfaces Llama with CM profile settings.

I hope that's a joke... If you have 1 hour+ of screen on time for 2 hours 30 on your battery and lost 20%, then that's perfectly normal. You'll get around 4ish hours of screen on time on a normal battery when everything is going just fine, depending on your usage.

Well it seems like you had the screen on for longer than that...next time, hit the "screen" percentage, and it'll tell you how much time you had the screen on for...

Everyone bases their battery life by "screen on time", because everyone has different usage patterns and the screen is what takes the most power, so this way, it's easier to make decent comparisons between two people's battery life...The picture you saw of the 15 or whatever hours definitely did not have a lot of screen-on time.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] flexfulton:
Ah be careful here.

There are two different issues that involve the IMEI number not appearing correctly. First and the biggest ***** of them all to fix is your IMEI number showing a 0. This means is erased, gone and a big pain in the ass to get back. The OP is correct most threads about fixing this have disappeared.

The second issue which yes reflashing the Rom will correct isn't so much an IMEI number as it is our phones ROM not recognizing the radio baseband. This reports back an unknown for your IMEI as well as your baseband version and a few other areas. Yes a reflashing of the ROM and or kernel if using a custom one will fix this. I have seen this a small handful of times since making the switch to 10.2 both with stock kernel and custom kernel.

It sounds like the OP has lost his completely if it's showing a 0. In which case reflashing the ROM or restoring a nandroid will not recover it for him.

As for any further help, I have none except I know the information and files have seemed to have disappeared from XDA and it's a ***** to get your IMEI number back. Even after doing so some people can never get off the edge network. Best bet might be restore to fully stock and return under warranty.

Yes you're right, thanks for the insight as usual.

There's a few tools that help you recover your IMEI even if you completely lost it, but as you noted there's still data issues.

Ideally, everyone would backup their nvdata safely. Samsung has their embedded tool to do that too called nvbackup and it's pretty simple to use. Copies IMEI partitions to 2 backup blocks. Can also be restored using nvrestore after.

I feel like this piece of information does not get enough credit.

Yes, I completely lost IMEI. I'm still stumped as to why. I haven't flashed anything in over a week and haven't had any issues for months. From what I've read, it could be as simple as a corrupt SD card.

I reverted to stock 4.0.4 and was able to re-inject my IMEI, but I'm still stuck on EDGE. It seems like my options are pretty limited. Thankfully, I'm usually near Wi-Fi and had been holding out for a Nexus 5 anyway. I might re-up my old Captivate in the meantime. Or just keep this as a badass data-less phone.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
There's no real tool necessary other than those integrated in the phone (yeah I know seems weird).

Just use adb:

adb reboot nvbackup

or terminal emulator:

su

reboot nvbackup

Upon rebooting you'll see a blue text (bootloader) that looks like the one that appears right before entering your recovery telling you about the backup of your modem + efs to hidden backup blocks (if I remember correctly).

To restore, replace nvbackup by nvrestore instead.

Why this backup isn't done at the factory prior to shipping to the end user I don't know.

Seems a little too easy as most other methods to back up your NV stuff requires stock dialer codes etc. I've given it a shot. Appears to have done what you explained. Guess I'll only ever find out if it works if heaven forbid my IMEI gets corrupt. I hope the day to find out never comes.

Thanks again and cheers!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
Hope for you too.

It's pre-emptive move (so in the event you haven't done it prior to your IMEI disappearing you're SOL) and it needs root + it's not widely known, so I imagine that's why it doesn't get much credit.

Wow that was easy, great info. Other backup methods looked like a science project.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
Nothing wrong with the science project way either. This is one of these things that more = better in my opinion. Plus don't get a false sense of security, nothing shows this method will be more effective than the one currently accepted and it might leave you with the same problems down the road (stuck on EDGE?) or worse, because I haven't tested it myself and as noted earlier it is not very widely known.

But just the fact that's it's there, built in the bootloader by Samsung themselves makes me feel a bit more confident about it. ;)

I know for a fact that I747 works with Google Wallet when I was using a TW 4.0.x/4.1.x rom. Ever since moving to AOSP ROMs that feature has "disappeared" and a lot of folks are suggesting that the AOSP don't have the necessary drivers for the SGS3 secure element.

Now a little history... I was NEVER able to get it to run on the old Google Wallet... it would crash right away on me... and when I would run it again, it would sit there for 5 mins and then say it can't setup (or something to that effect).

But this time using all the files in that link I was actually able to go through the entire process. The only thing is I haven't actually went out to buy something using Paypass.... I might later tonight though just to try it out.
