I want to interject for a quick PSA.

Many people seem to be experiencing issues due to bad downloads. Taking the time to verify the MD5 will save you a lot of headache.

If downloading to your PC, the MD5 can be found on the download page for both goo.im and dev-host. After installing the program hash tab, you can go to the files properties, click on the hash tab, paste the MD5 into the hash comparison box and if you get a green check you can be 100% sure the file downloaded correctly.

If downloading directly to your phone, use goomanager to download things like gapps and whatever else is hosted on goo.im, that will verify MD5 automatically. If downloading from somewhere else, you can use MD5 Checker on your phone.

Making sure you have a good download before flashing and reporting issues can go a long way toward making sure bugs reported in this thread are actual rom issues.

When I flash the latest inverted Gapps, Gtalk wont show up in the app drawer. How can I get it working? Its in the system app folder
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DatDude123:
Don't know if this is referring to me, but I always verify MD5. My WiFi issue has been resolved. Seems to have stabilized. It could have just been the WAP onsite at work, they have been known to be wonky as well.

Can someone clarify for me: Is this a different Rom build from yesterday's 3am drop? Or just a modem update bundled with yesterday's build?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jharre08:
Thanks for the quick reply, I was about to flash the new release with normal GAPPS.

Tried the 7/26 release with inverted GAPPS and no issue. Had already been running 7/26 with normal GAPPS, no problems either....

Back to 7/26 with inverted I go :silly:

Yeah just checked it out and I really haven't tthe slightest idea what differences have been made unfortunately. I am having one annoying issue though. How come when I ask Google Now the weather it gives me a location I'm not in and how can I change the default location?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Darth Pooh:
Are you connected to WiFi? if so, it might be pulling information from your provider who thinks you're somewhere else. For instance, I live in Philadelphia... I have Comcast. I am sometimes "located" in New Jersey by Google Now because of how Comcast reports back to my router/modem.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] techusky:
What have you tried to fix it? In my experience, you just need to find the right CM10 build with the right radio combination... hence my over 2 days on a single charge battery life.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] sonarchist:
Same here..........you gotta mind those power hungry apps (especially when your're not actively using 'em).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] techusky:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jsmcmahon89:
That's gotta suck man. I could never even make it to my lunch break on CM9 on my Epic. However, running CM10 on SGSIII I make it my entire 9 hour work day and have atleast 35% battery left when I finish work. Mind you I always have anywhere between 2.5 and 4 hours of talk time. I train and support an online CRM system, and use my phone to sync my gmail(we have a 5 minute call back policy when people send support tickets), so I have to be able to receive the e-mail immediately on my phone, and then I use that very Galaxy S3 to call the customer back. People who are having bad battery life should really check into trying out all the radios and watch the apps you are using. Low signal area is obviously going to add to your battery drainage big time.

I keep seeing people with the

Phantom Voicemail

Here is the only fix that works for me. This works on my CM10 newest build.

Instructions

1. Go to 'manage apps' / Navigate to 'Phone' and press "Clear data'

2. Download modified Phone.apk

3. Using Root Explorer with 'R/W' set (or similar app), go to your 'system/app' folder and backup the phone.apk or rename with '.bak' extention.

4. Move downloaded Phone.apk from the download location to your 'system/app' folder.

5. Make sure to change the permissions to match the other apps in the folder.

6. Close Root Explorer and reboot into Recovery

7. Go to 'Advanced' and press on 'Fix Permissions' and then reboot phone.

8. Enjoy not having that $%$*&# notification anymore

Note: If you are scared of doing this then long press on the notification and click app-info, then just clear data on every reboot.

Cited Works: The directions are by moonzbabysh from here and the phone apk is by JusticeAA from here.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] chrisbass:
Mine has been showing the same but data still seems normal. Not sure if its been stated but I believe I found a small bug. When I set a direct dial for a lock screen shortcut it says its been saved but doesn't actually show up at all on the lockscreen

2+ Hours of screen time. This is a first on a CyanogenMod ROM. Lol. Coming from the epic 4g. Used to get less than 1 hour of screen time. Stoked :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nicholaaaas:
Well that's part of your problem
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] asforme:
Yup. You're running your CPU to go clear out ram. Then when you launch the program again, you're running it even more to reload everything from scratch.

Just let the OS do it's job.

Get Better Battery Stats and check to see what's top for kernel wakelocks. That'll be what's preventing your phone from sleeping and killing your battery.

-Install JB GApps

-Reboot

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CogDancer:
That's it, unless you want to dual-boot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] techusky:
I have to disagree there... closing apps does not harm your battery life. I routinely get over 2 days on a single charge and always make sure there aren't any apps running in the background (assuming I don't need them open of course).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr Ian B:
I would wipe cache and dalvik after you flash rom and then flash jb gapps.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] algirnavi451:
you can hunt down the system image files and replace them with your own individually. Would have to do that with a brand new flash, unless you create a zip. Themes use that same principle

How about anyone how knows anything about android will tell you task killers use more power than letting android handle it itself? /discussion
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] :
I don't know what you guys were arguing about, but I'd just like to step in and say that ever since Android 2.3 task killers are no longer needed.

Now the OS keeps the app in the RAM. Keeping an app in the RAM does not affect battery life at all. Once you use up all your RAM, it automatically removes the lowest priority apps from the RAM. Basically, the OS has its own built in task manager.

Task Killers, on the other hand, removes all the apps from RAM and they have to re-open themselves again. This just wastes your battery as the apps have to re-open and it bogs down your cpu + battery.

I'm sure I may have been wrong on a few of my points but the bottom line that any android user will tell you is that task killers are unnecessary.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] techusky:
Before we get too off topic here, I again ask for some proof... I've used Android for years now in various capacities, and I haven't ever heard that claim before. I'll fully admit I'm wrong if you can show some links/research that prove your claim about battery life, but until then... it's just a claim.

---------- Post added at 11:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:04 PM ----------

Just the fact that I get over 2 days of battery life on a single charge, and he was saying that closing open apps will reduce your battery life. However, a point I forgot to bring up is that I contend in development ROMs such as CM10, closing open apps is better for battery life... consider the camera bug in the earlier bugs that would zap your battery if left running in the background. But you very well could be right on a fully polished ROM with very few bugs.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nicholaaaas:

does anyone know where jelly bean stores purchased apk's?

they used to be in data/app-private but no more
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] :
JellyBean has a nice new anti-pirate system so my guess would be that it installs them in a different way or hides them somehow. I doubt they'd just change the install location since that wouldn't help with piracy at all.

It doesn't really matter though since titanium backup still backs it up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] AvatarOfFrost:
Thanks. I was just thinking about the possible anti-piracy thing. I paid for this app I just want to tweak a couple of png's.

Oh well, I will see if I can't get it from Titanium Backup.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Try backing the app up with TB and taking the app out of the zip in your TitaniumBackup folder which is on the SDcard.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] AvatarOfFrost:
I just tried this and Windows won't see the file on my SD Card. It won't see the Titanium Backup folder either. I can see it with ES File Explorer from the phone and after I connect via USB I see no Titanium Backup folder on my SD Card via Windows Explorer. Weird!

I moved the file form the TB folder to another location on the SD card and Windows Explorer still can't see it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Did you move the apk or the zip from the TB folder?

That's really strange but my suggestion would be to use ES to remove the apk from the zip and upload it to something like dropbox or google drive.

yes you should flash the radio. Its been great for signal for me so far

"When it's ready, don't ask for ETA's"

I wasn't asking for an ETA... I know that. Don't assume I'm a noob, and look into the question more. I meant at what point in the development of any given rom is it posted on the cyanogenmod site?
