Stock and flash daily. Still can't send. I reset the APN settings and clean flashed.

I don't wanna do factory reset and hour someone has an idea that works!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Six6Sicks:
What build are you currently using?

"noticeably more stable than stock"

LOL. Ok.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] improperburial:
When a message fails to send look at how big the file size of it is. I've noticed that cm isn't re-sizing the images correctly. You can download an app to re size the image before you send it. That's the only way I have been able to send mms
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] frappe33:
don't have the issue on my device (I'm one of the folks who have either been stable for a while on RC5 or one of the folks recognizing that the free product people choose to install/run is constantly evolving to improve it) but wonder if the same MMS issue would happen if the pic is staken from the front camera vs the rear camera... just thinking that a smaller start size (and if this change made a difference) perhaps selecting a more modest camera file size for the rear to get around the issue while the devs take the time to do what they are doing for free.

You're complaining that the daily automated development builds of pre-release software has bugs? Maybe you'd be happier with an iPhone.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] niphoet:
Maybe the mods need to have a little chat with this guy.

Stupid Tapatalk, sorry.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] EtherealRemnant:
People obviously don't know what a "nightly" build is... Its a pre-release build that is built daily based off of the currently merged code on the server at the time the target build is started - **** breaks as code is being changed which is why they have this lovely page over here for builds considered much more stable -> http://get.cm/?device=d2tmo&type=stable <- anything else has the chance of working perfectly, eating your cat, or anything inbetween. If you use 10.1, you do so with full knowledge that things can and will be broken. End of story.

I avoid nightlies - why? Because I only have one phone and as such, I need a stable daily driver. If you can't handle stability issues, don't flash the ROM but don't slam it either as the CM team themselves EXPECT things to be broken!

That said, while CM isn't my favored experience, I found RC5 to be much more stable than the M1 build I was running on for awhile. Got a lot of reboots with that one, didn't have any with RC5.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ziggy46:
keep in mind that the code use for this project isnt necessarily easy to write or read...

example of real code from the commit "Hide additional blacklist separator"

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/44331/6/res/layout/incall_touch_ui.xml

and

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/44331/6/src/com/android/phone/InCallTouchUi.java

it isnt just "Hide_additional_blacklist_separator = YES"

and keep in mind that all of the devs do it as a hobby, not a job. they are not paid to cater to your every whim. it is something they like to do and on top of that its FREE. <--- key word
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] itzsmokey:
How did you get it all set up like that?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] rage913:
Instead of forcing the capacitive buttons off For pie I wanted them to still work like normal so I searched around a bit. Found a great thread here on xda but I can't find the link. But google: xda lmt. Download the apk and then with a file directory just install. The forum will tell you what to use in terms of which device we run. (but it's the sprint gs3) after that it's pretty much straight forward from there.

If you are running. A tight fitting case (I'm running a uag) it makes pie controls from right and left difficult because it can't read the access point. You can always tinker with it in its actually settings. Oh and if you have gestures with your native launcher I would advise turning them off. Lmt with launcher gestures gets retarded sometimes.

So I finally came out of the stone-age, I was running 5/8 nightly and finally installed the new MD5 bootloader and installed RC5.

What's everyone's opinions on kernels? Up until now, I've been running leankernel, but I'm wondering about kt. Worth switching over?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] EtherealRemnant:
KT is a great alternative kernel but I've had stability issues with it. I don't usually have problems with Faux's kernel.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kpizzle:
What kind of stability issues? Flickering and reboots?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] EtherealRemnant:
Yep. Both. It stutters occasionally too. That said, Faux's kernel doesn't work anymore because he hasn't released a 3.4 kernel for our device.

KT is mostly stable and I haven't used it lately so the stability might be much better. Its great on TW - part of the stability with CM could be the fact that CM itself is obviously not stable. I tend to stick with the stock CM kernel when I'm testing nightlies, for example.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Sixonefour:
I've been on RC5 for awhile. Tried both the stock and KT for several days each before deciding. +1 with the previous post about stability issues with KT (though I only tried the ktoonservative governor). Stock kernel seems to be more stable for me with RC5. I cannot comment on other kernels as I have not personally tried any others. The ROM itself is great. All of this of course is subjective.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kpizzle:
What kind of battery life are you getting out of the stock kernel?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] vitosans:
On the latest nightly I get 100% CPU on a core with the process being radio.

Dropped back one nightly and its fine.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] lowsnamebrand:
Have they fixes the issues with sending pics via MMS I have tried diff. Apns and lower quality pics but nothing seems to solve this issues :confused:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Sixonefour:
In the beginning when RC5 was freshly released it was getting 24+ hours with typically less than 3hrs of screen on time. Recently 12+ with maybe 2hrs of screen on time. It suits my needs. Low to moderate usage. WiFi has been my single biggest battery drainer according to Better Battery Stats.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
Are you using ktoons kernel?

Also try downgrading to the LJC firmware. There's a bug in MD5 that causes massive battery drain. I'm not sure what causes it, but I was able to reproduce it with enough accuracy to identify it as the problem. Been running a week or so now on LJC, with no issues to report. No more phantom battery drain.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Sixonefour:

As you can see its pushing 17 hours with roughly 40% left but less than an hour of screen on time.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Sixonefour:
I was using it but it seemed to have made the situation worse so I went back to stock. Thanks for the info. I think I still have LJC somewhere on my laptop. I'll give it a spin.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kpizzle:
One thing to note about the MMS issue. I was able to fix my issues (delayed incoming MMS messages) by messing with the APN settings.

I have T-Mobile in the US.

MMS Proxy should not be populated by default, change it to 216.155.165.50 and that should do it. Make sure you pull up the menu and click Save before leaving this screen.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
LJC+LeanKernel. Try that for a couple days.

mic inop

my mic on my wired stopped working. i tried the headset in another phone works fine and my stock head set works fine in my phone. im using a set or urbeats and also a set of monster energy.. both have no mic on my phone only. any ideas :confused:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] falcons2:
I noticed that after listening to a voicemail in the visual voicemail app then making a call it sounds all distorted and messed. I'm on rc5. Is there a fix or does a newer version fix this?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Sixonefour:
I've never messed with APN settings so I have no idea how to do this. Care to elaborate a little more? The few pictures I did attempt to send worked fine. I didn't pay attention to the file sizes but there were taken with the default settings in the camera. I'll send a few more pics tomorrow to see if this issue even exists for me.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] itzsmokey:
So how do you flash newer nightlys?

Do you just change the updater-script?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kpizzle:
Go to Settings - Click "More" - Mobile Networks - Access Point Names - Click on the T-Mobile APN, then you can edit the MMS Proxy.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Sixonefour:
Just out of curiosity, is this something the CM team will eventually address or would it be Google that needs to drop another MD5 update or another firmware release all together? If it was that detrimental to the battery why would CM continue to move forward with it instead of advising users to revert to avoid the phantom drain issue?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] moldyghosty:
I believe that he was referring to the md5 radio, not something Google related. You will just have to flash a different radio most likely.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
We are able to use LJA, LJC, and MD5 bootloaders with the newer updates. Even then, you could edit the script to force it to install anyhow.

Unsure if radio is the issue. But it is definitely one (or more) of those 5 files. I did not troubleshoot further as I didn't feel the need. I suspect that the issue with MD5 may be do to bug(s) in the CM kernel (and it has propagated to the 3rd party kernels). However, I am also assuming TW users are not having this problem. Very few (comparatively) have complained about it. It's not an issue that is blatantly obvious and easy to detect, but is most certainly visible if you know what you are looking for.

I'm making lots of assumptions with few facts. I don't know where the problem is, or what causes it. I only know how to fix it. I know that for weeks after flashing MD5, I could not fix my battery drain issues. The day I flashed LJC firmware, the problem stopped. Haven't seen it since. Better deep sleep, too. 98.4% on mobile connection.

When AOSP users are complaining of battery isses, I first want to see their wakelock activity. Then I tell them to flash LJC and another kernel. LeanKernel is the flavor of the day, but I normally use ktoons when it's up to date. But after the recent slow of ktoons' updates, I'm starting to like LeanKernel. No options to configure. I am anxious for him to update his kernel though, I want to try it out with my new setup.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jankies:
IPhone... Hah
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Sixonefour:
Well he said firmware initially but I believe when you flash LJC firmware it will flash the LJC radio as well?

Aerowinder - Maybe ditching the MD5 radio (for now) would also be beneficial to my battery?

So basically downgrade the firmware AND radio back to LJC from MD5? root66 the easiest or best option for that? Just trying to make sure I completely understand what you're saying. I already see an improvement with leanKernel though MAPS, instead of my WiFi is the biggest drainer (so far today but its been asleep all night so we'll see how the day pans out).
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
Follow the last firmware link in my signature. Starts with an m. It will flash the LJC radio, too.

You need to Greenify Maps. It's notorious for doing exactly what you describe.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] itzsmokey:
Why is it that TW Roms look a lot better thank CM ROMs....... Just wondering because CM looks a bit off white while TW color are vibrant.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Sixonefour:
Off white? You can always theme the ROM if you don't like the Cyan look. There are plenty of themes in the Play Store.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mondokat:
If you put MD5 back, does the drain come back?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
I flashed it again. I will update when I have an answer.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] itzsmokey:
Went back go LJC and battery is a whole lot better....noticeable!

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] abc123pro:
There are certain kernels that give the option of "tritinity colors" which gives a beautiful screen originally by morfic I believe but you can find it in kernels such as ktoonsez.

I'm coming from Paranoid Android. I really dug the 'phablet' UI I got from it, but the latest builds gave me nothing but trouble with video & games... So... Can I set up phablet UI with CM10.1?

I know how to edit the LCD density build prop, and setting it to 240 looks pretty nice... but it doesn't give me two-pane windows or a partial-screen notification drawer. I would love to have both of those back in CM10.1

Thanks for any input you can give!!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
Posted findings here.

Pretty sure that's what PA is all about. It's unique.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] lextex:
Is there not a build prop edit to enable tablet or 'phablet' mode? :(
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] s_special:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Alpha_wolf:
anyone else have this very lovely surprise of getting in a car with some friends putting your earbuds in and wanting to listen to some nice cool music only to have the volume glitch and you got on up from mute and suddenly its ful blast -_-

oh what a lovely thing to have woke my ass up and everyone else in the car to ...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] silverton:
I got a weird one. Was running MIUI, decided to check out CM10.1, get in to the system all apps redownload from market, change animation settings in developer options to .5, reboot. Now I can't get beyond the Galaxy S3 splash screen with the CM logo on it. same thing happens when I restore my backup up of MIUI, at the splash screen with the miui logo. Won't get far enough to even get a logcat...

Edit:

I'm gonna guess something about MIUI and CM not agreeing with permissions in the /data/app folder... ended up having to wipe data :(
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] stonew5082:
Since when do you not wipe data when switching roms? Hehe

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] rage913:
Where you listening to Apollo? And are you on 6-19? Just put in my headphones to listen music with Apollo and I made sure to put audio low because I know that I had my audio up in my car and made my ears explode... Effn hell man...

Killed the app, rebooted, wiped app data and still no dice. Not a deal breaker but Jesus christ thought my ears would start bleeding. Just a heads up guys.

Edit: and it just hit my Google play music too. Jesus.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ce_rob:
if i've updated firmware, can i not flash the older releases that didn't require it? i think the last all-around super-stable nightly for me was 05/01...

since updating firmware and flashing new nightlies/RCs, data is INSANELY slow and fickle, my reception sucks major effing as*, and battery life is only MARGINALLY better - which i'd gladly trade for flawless/working MMS, consistent data, and better reception.

thoughts?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
Is this an Apollo issue? I use Poweramp all the time and have never seen it. Not one time.

If it is an Apollo problem, why don't you guys just stop using it? It's not as if it's your only option. Not even a good one, if I'm being honest.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] rage913:
Yeah. I just turned it on to see if it was just Apollo. But the bug/glitch migrated over google play music. And that got all sorts of loud. I'm assuming power amp is the end all for music then huh. :cool:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Alpha_wolf:
yeah to all that lol
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mondokat:
I'm on a 6/14 nightly and it's been stable and running nice, but what the hell happened to the RC's? are we not getting a stable after all? I see a mountain of commits lately.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
Hopefully not. Still quite the mess.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] silverton:
I've gone back and forth between MIUI and CM before and have never had a problem. But touché good sir!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mdfritz:
You should be fine flashing older nightlies. I am tempted to go back to 5/1 myself, or maybe even 3/17. Seems like everyday my phone is losing another semi important function

or gaining another bug.

I use both play and power amp. From the very start I had never had a single issue with power amp. Apollo is total crap and I'm not sure why the CM team thinks it should be included in the Rom. What kills me is when I am listening to power amp and get out and then back into my car and Apollo picks up the Bluetooth instead of power amp. There's no notification curtain controls for Apollo and it doesn't show up in long press home, so I have to fumble around for the app while driving to kill it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
Freeze it. No more Apollo. All of the CM apps have a far superior alternative in the Play Store. The best ones aren't free. But if you spend a few dollars, you never have to worry about this crap again.

Apollo -> Poweramp ($)

CM File Manager -> Solid Explorer ($), ES File Explorer (free), also, they finally updated Root Explorer ($) into this decade. That ship has sailed for me, though.

CM Camera -> Camera ZOOM ($). None of these apps have camcorder support.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tyronekndrck:
what am i doing wrong

im rooted and have cwm 5.5.0.4 do i need latest cwm or something and its not touch btw

If you were to post the error message, someone could help you, I'm sure.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] rage913:
+1 to both solid explorer and power amp. Just gotta get used to Poweramp. Thing is crazy intensive! But I love solid explorer. One of my most used apps and it's absolutely gorgeous. I'll check out camera zoom :p I'm actually kind of satisfied with the cm camera but if it's got your seal of approval then ill try it out!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
Not really; I use the CM camera, too. But it has some neat effects (plus free addons for gazillions more), as does Camera 2. Paper Camera is pretty neat to mess with, too. I don't take that many pictures, though.

Poweramp is intensive in what way? I always figured people who don't use Solid Explorer a) haven't heard of it or b) it's not free. It really is the best. Both looks and functionality. The cloud support sucks (java.io.exceptions) for a lot of files on Drive. But it's got (s)FTP, FTP server, SMB... I use the SMB to stream movies from my computer via MX Player. Pretty neat.

Anyone having issues with volume in Google music? Its on or off with no attenuation...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] skewty:
I have had this issue. It hasn't happened in a few days though. Running 23 nightly now.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] rage913:
I guess its just really, customizable? That might be the word im looking for. I had to go back through the folder selection process because it had my notifications/ringtones on their as well :silly: Yea solid explorer is amazing, I still think that I havent even scratched the surface in terms of functionality with it. But poweramp is slowly becoming my new favorite modem for music.

8 tracks seems to still have that audio glitch on being stupid loud no matter what the audio level is set at, spotify seems to be allowing the switch in volume levels and power amp is as well. Can I still pull a logcat on something thats working...just being retarded loud? lol
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] arathur:
I'm having the same problem, but with BOTH SMS and MMS. I know T-Mobile doesn't exactly give the best signal in my area, but this only happens with CM. I had the problem with UVDMD5 (the newest modem) and I'm having it with UVLI8 too. As of this moment, my phone shows sometimes H+ or 3G but with ZERO bars. Then sometimes the H+ and/or 3G disappear and leave only the dark gray bars, which I think means I have almost no service. Even if I leave my phone still, it cycles so fast through these. It is during these times that I am unable to send SMS and MMS.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mcs6:
mms

Yeah im having the same problem sending mms. So annoying when something that normally works fine gets broken randomly...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] silverton:
Me as well. Noticed it last night when I wanted to sleep with Pandora on. Volume bug squashed that idea!

---------- Post added at 01:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:58 PM ----------

Went digging through the AT&T CM10.1 thread to see what people were complaining about over there. Got an answer to the MMS thing. the MMS file size setting in CM10.1 is too large for most carries, here is a bug report which is current in RC5.

https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-1312
