Been using it for about 6 hours now. Battery has had some serious improvements. I've restored all my apps, logged into all my accounts, fired up Google Now, etc. so that everything that normally runs is running and then I went out. About 3 hours later I checked the battery stats. It woke up a grand total of 5 times for stuff like Facebook and Twitter notifications, and once when the phone rang.

Will do some more testing later, but there was so little battery usage that it was kind of unsettling. I was afraid nothing was syncing in real-time, but since I've gotten home and I could get notifications on my PC and hear them show up on my phone at the same time, that fear has been alleviated, too. Wowza.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Spiyder:
Flashed RC3. It is amazing how fast and snappy my s3 is, i cannot wait to test battery life!

Ongoing BT Issues

I'm running RC3 and the issues persist.

For me, they are the following:

Low volume

Failure to connect/reconnect without going to setting

Will not answer/hangup via BT controls

Playing unselected music once calls ended incoming & outgoing <intermittently>

I've been seeing this since I started using the 5/23 Nightly. I went back to RC2 and it went away.

Anyone else having these issues or something similar?

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Spiyder:
Can we just call this one stable? Lol

I'll try that.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DeerSteak:
Well I let it go overnight and it sat unused and just brought in notification and email and such, ad it lost around 3% per hour. Not bad all things considered, but not quite as good as stock even though I get more wake locks. Looks like every time I get an notification it's waking the screen, which was annoying when I woke up to a lit bedroom, and according to Better Battery Stats the default governor is putting it up to 1.5GHz way too often. Probably choosing a different governor would help.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
CM kernel is pretty terrible on battery. 2.5-3% an hour sounds right.

Use ktoonz. Ktoonservative/row. 1% an hour. Less if your undervolt.

any possibility that someone can upload the MMS.apk from 5.24?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] c_brown93:
MMS works perfect for me on 5/31.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sabreful:
Mine unfortunately didn't. I was hoping I wouldn't have to wipe. Oh well, I guess I'll give a full wipe a shot
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] :
Do I have to update bootloader to flash latest nightly. Or is there a way to get by that?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sabreful:
Yeah. Unfortunately a full wipe didn't fix the issue :( can someone please send that 5.24 MMS.apk so I can give that a shot? I'm on my work computer, and I can't find the 20130524 to download and extract myself
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] darknessxyz:
Anyone experienced data speed drop with the recently nightly? I notice this from 0528 and RC3 did the same thing. I suppose to have 18-20 mps now it drop down to 10-12 mps. I'm even having a hard time to download from get.cm

I'm in San Francisco and I already updated to the latest firmware and modem
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Pielvrx:
Holy smoke, RC3 is super smooth. Not sure bout battery cuz I'm running ktoonz, but everything else is butter
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] trofmoc:
latest nightly started with a bang

but settled to a whimper. bt and voice dial worked good and then-and then- back to same old bt issues and voice dial working from app not bt. Oh well,nice while it lasted. am sure will be addressed soon.:eek:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] corkythetard:
Easier to ask than to actually test out and report back tangible data one way or the other. I understand the mentality.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mdfritz:
Coincidentally, I was gonna report on that anyway. So today on 5/31, I was listening to play and I was like, this is kinda crappy (flat and low end distortion). So I went to find the eq and now it's buried in settings in play. Dsp wasn't working at all. I flashed elesbb's dsp patch, but that must be incompatible now because it froze all audio altogether. I re-flashed the nightly and ktoons and then dsp was working again. Same old issues - room enhancements cause clicking - not a show stopper, but now bass boost was totally broke also and I noticed a fuzz more low end distortion than typical.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cwalker29:
So anybody have problems sending picture message's?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] aNYthing24:
Yeah, I have BT issues too even with RC4. My Pebble never reconnects normally if I go out of range. It was better with RC2, think I might roll back.

Is anyome have issues with some excess of heat at the bottom of the phone?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] rage913:
Wtf mate... Anyone getting random gps to show up in your battery feed when it's not on. Kinda like this?... Looking into bbs and it's not showing a network state for it. But it's damn irritating.

Anyone having issue with wrong info on wifi data usage? Only install 5/31 nightly 10.1.0 RC4 for 1 day and reinstall app only using titanium backup. Wasn't even 1 day. Flash that nightly formless than 14h and barely use that much Internet.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ahoslc:
CM posted something about data use being listed wrong I wouldn't worry about it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] aNYthing24:
Yeah, same thing for me. I wouldn't worry.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ce_rob:
i've noticed intermittent issues over the last few nightlies/RC3/RC4. some send, some don't - some SAY they send but never do. idk what actually goes through anymore. anyone know what's going on?

What is a good kernel to use on this, I just flashed the RC4 and my phone died in 5 hours?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] St0n3s:
I've got the overheating color pixel look going on again. Running YOUR kernel & 5/25.

No overclocking or altered settings.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] klin1344:
Kt747 is a good kernel if it runs well on your phone. Otherwise I recommend staying on stock.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Androiduser96:
I think RC3 had better battery life.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dyavrom:
im having great battery life in RC4 with the ktoonz kernal. Was running a bit hot with the stock kernal, so I switched it. so far its been solid. a bit of flickering on whatsapp and instagram so I disabled h/w. and my mms isnt working which has been the case with most CM roms ive used. apart from that, really solid rom.

thanks for the update!

Status 7 error

So I'm trying to update RC4, but I'm getting a status 7 error. This is especially weird though because I'm already on RC2. What can I do to solve this??
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] lowsnamebrand:
You have to update your boot loader my friend
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] IXChicharitoXI:
You need to update your bootloader.

Here, flash this and you'll be fine.

Gallery isn't responding issues

Running into an issue that has be baffled looking for a fix. I had attempted to install the PhotoSphere camera and gallery upgrade zip at one point. That didn't go well and would hang so I reflashed and normal camera returned. Not the newest JellyBean camera with full screen viewfinder and the circle-to-set settings (not sure what it is called...) but the camera where 30% of the screen is the blue shutter button, slider to zoom, etc.(Realized that it is the ICS camera that is installed not the JB one.) That was odd, but whatever I could deal with that. Moved through some nightlies, and the release candidates, and somewhere along the line something went awry where now when taking pics with the stock camera Gallery stops responding, and after the force close the camera is unavailable until phone is rebooted. I've reflashed many times using RC2, RC3, RC4, some other nightlies (ones post MD5 radio/bootloader fix) to no avail. After a full wipe it wil work for one picture but on second shot it hangs up, and disconnects the camera.

Additional info: Other cameras (CameraZoom FX for instance) work without issue. I've been using the latest GApps 3/01 following all re-flashes.

Anyone else see this or have some suggestions? I'm running out of ideas on this...

Thanks in advance
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
There is an issue where pressing the screen to focus (many times) the camera will do exactly what you are describing. You still have the old camera? That's weird.

Make a nandroid. Do a factory reset and wipe /system (cache and dalvik too, obviously). Try a clean install of CM - camera ok now?

And use these GApps instead: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2012857

Is there a way to get RC4 working on the LTE T999L
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ganiman:
Does RC4 still have the bluetooth connection/control issues that cropped up over the last few weeks? I keep trying out the nightlies and checking notes, but figured I'd ask. It seems kind of major.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] :
Does mic on headphone work in calls?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] frappe33:
Thanks for your reply. I performed all steps as you recommended including using the newest version of GApps. Full reset with wipe of system cache and dalvik. Upon reboot I do have the JB camera with Photosphere. First try at taking a picture results in a hang and camera disconnect. When I look in the gallery following this there is a placeholder for the picture that was attempted but it is blank. Could it be a permissions issue? I did try running fix permissions from CWMod ROM manager and from recovery console. This should correct any write access issues but, maybe if whereever the Gallery data is stored was changed to a full 777 permissions level it may help? Any idea where the Gallery data is stored? Is there a way (I couldn't find anything in settings) to change the save location of the stock camera?

If it doesn't get fixed perhaps I should be asking what everyone's favorite non-stock camera is :)

Thanks for your help Aero
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Spiyder:
My data and radio is dropping constantly. Ill list exactly when/how it is dropping in bit but anyone else having this issue? Saw a lot of ril commits lately.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
We don't have Photosphere without a mod. Don't flash that mod. The Gapps package has Photosphere in it, but not for our phone. And so, doesn't flash.

Gallery would be in /system. Permissions Fix works only data partition.

There were some kernel commits addressing camera issues a couple days ago. Are you using a custom kernel?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ce_rob:
i've noticed the same thing. data/radio/speed/etc are all very up and down for me. and, unrelated, i'm still having some SMS/MMS issues with 06/02...hmmm.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mdfritz:
Do you mean when it goes from blue to white on the indicator (even in a strong data coverage area or solid Wi-Fi zone), and you lose internet connectivity even if the signal is good? If so, that's been happening to me every so often for probably a month. Reboot is only thing that fixes it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ce_rob:
that + speeds are quite inconsistent - bingo. i can't remember when it started exactly, but a month does sound about right...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Spiyder:
Ok what was happening (lasest nightly, stock kernel, only mod was updated to md5 radio and hsxpa/upa/dpa catagorie change in build.prop but also does it without that tweek) was the radio was completely lost (no bars and just black signal icon), did it when i turned on wifi and also randomly while wifi off. Tried everything, ended up flashing uvdlc radio and all is well now. Gonna test for a while then flash md5 radio and see what happens.

---------- Post added at 10:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:53 PM ----------

And yes my speeds are very inconsistant in same locations around town. Home, work, etc.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mdfritz:
What I'm getting is all or nothing on internet connectivity. All radios (data and Wi-Fi) blank out even if it says 4 bars h+ or 4 Wi-Fi bars. Toggling radios doesn't help. Hasn't happened that much recently, but occasionally it does. Signal indicators turn to white.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] frappe33:
So I have no idea what I did or how I have PhotoSphere but the JB camera I have currently does show it, and if I select it it does appear to work (though I was trying to get the phone back operational so I didn't want to need to reboot to get camera back for other testing... but the horizon line, three blue dots all were responsive for what it is worth...)

found GalleryGoogle.apk and Galaxy4.apk both in /system/apps but not sure if these are where the JB camera would store shots and if so how to modify permissions. Can you do it through Terminal like in Linux using a CHMOD command? Any recursive switch needed i.e. chmod -R 777 /system/apps/GalleryGoole.apk for instance?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ce_rob:
fwiw, after doing some radio testing, the most consistent ones (which isn't much) for me are LI8 & MD5
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mdfritz:
If you want to rid yourself of the photosphere camera, delete Googlegallery.apk and extract a gallery2.apk from a nightly or rc and place it in /system/apps. Reboot Then you'll be on stock cm camera. I know the photosphere camera is cool. But the picasa sync gallery that comes along with it causes problems with cm.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] PrimeNemesis:
Yes. :(

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] frappe33:
Thanks for the reply. Tried to do this but unable to save files to or rename files located in the /system/app location. Likely I'm not doing something correctly - how would one go about modifying these permissions?

---------- Post added at 06:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:09 PM ----------

So weirdly, the only camera function that isn't working using the JB camera with PhotoSphere is the normal camera. I tested video, panorama, PhotoSphere, even shapshots when recording video and they all work without issue. Once I try to take a normal picture, insta-freeze and camera disconnect.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mdfritz:
Using the root explorer app or cm file manager, goo to the system/apps directory and mount r/w, then you can delete and such.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] frappe33:

There is a thread in the dev section, it's stickied.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dave2metz:
My phone was stuck on the Samsung boot screen when I used Odin a couple of days ago. I let the boot screen sit for almost an hour, but nothing. Then I pulled the battery, booted into recovery, wiped data/factory reset and BAM! I have read about others doing the same to get it going. I can almost guarantee this will work for you. BMW... I used Root66 pre-root firmware found in the development threads. Good luck mate...

Is your bootloader/firmware updated?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Purple Ferret:
Since I am getting proper internet again soon (Fiber Optic, Yeah Baby!), I wanna give CM10.1 another try.

I plan on trying the RC4 and the Latest Nightly. I am mostly interested to see if Photosphere has been fixed with RC4. I also want to see if the Battery Charging issue I was having before has been resolved. Last time I couldnt get my phone to charge with milestone 3 from my Car Adapter or my PC.

What kernel should I use with it anyway? I mean what is everyone elses experience regarding it?

Also RC4 is 4.2.1 based right?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
It's 4.2.2.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] timosuomi:
RC4 is 4.2.2. The latest Lean Kernel seems very smooth on the 6/04 nightly. I prefer the new nightly over RC4. No photosphere built in.

Also, if I want photosphere, what issues do I need to watch out for if any? Photosphere looks so much better than that **** two way panoramic touchwiz offers.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] darknessxyz:
Finally got the phone up and working again. After flashed Root66 firmware with Odin, goes to the stock recovery and do a wiped data/factory reset will make or not again.

However, it formatted my Internal SD for some reason. I didn't check anything in Odin. Now all my pictures are gone which sux.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] inkling:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mdfritz:
The flashable Photosphere app is cool, but watch for problems with syncing Google services if you flash it. It is a component of the Googlegallery which is based on an older 4.1 gapps package. It overwrites your gapps with one that generally does not play well with cm10.1. It totally messed up my Google accounts sync for weeks and I had to do some repeated wiping to rectify it.
