I have a problem with sdcard in newest build. It is not mounted anymore. I did a full wipe and flashed with newest Cwm 6.0.1.

Flashing 0802 build over it and everything works fine again.

First I thought it had something to do with the cwm version, because after the update from 5.8 I have to select from sdcard instead select from external sdcard. Not sure what is going on.

I am using the stock kernel.
[Galaxy S III General] LionRock:
Why you must unlokc the phone to click OK ? :) then it would be better to put it in notification bar...
[Galaxy S III General] Kussie:
There was a bad build earlier with an early version of the August 4th build. It was removed and reuploaded. sounds like you still had a copy of the bad build.

On another note, I'm trying to diagnose an issue and narrow it done to being a problem with some launchers or something else.

On stock CM10 the google bar looks like:

But on Nova and Apex launchers it gets a lot more transparent:

Just trying to figure out the cause might be if anyone has a clue.

noise reduction problem on i9300

Hi ever since the 20120802 version i got a serious problem, making calls impossible. The one im calling can hardly understand a word im saying and is deafened by the background noise. Anyone else got this problem, or a solhtion? I keep going back to the 20120726 version to be able to make calls
[Galaxy S III General] dr.m0x:
Or you could just use haxsync.
[Galaxy S III General] jnr21:
Nova and apex has their own search bars, so they might be different as on stock launcher.

Please don't use SWAP! The phone has 1GB RAM. If there is a problem with the memory there should be another solution. SWAP wasn't even a help on the mt3g and slowed it down.

Hellsgod didn't mention that he screwed up his EFS foulder by re partitioning for SWAP!

[Galaxy S III General] samuel583:
This may seem like a noob question, but I see you all talking about memory leaks and giving figures for your RAM. Where do I check those digits?
[Galaxy S III General] sjgore:
Mine doesn't seem to suffer the memory leak either (as far as I can tell).

Reading how others have to reboot frequently because their phone has ground to a halt, it just doesn't happen to me, and never has with CM10.

Since flashing the 04/08/2012 build at about 5pm on the day it was released, my phone now has an uptime of 38 hours 50 mins. Nothing has crashed or FC'd during that time.

Going into SystemPanel, I have 171MB free.

FWIW, ever since Preview 2, I've had the following apps disabled in Settings > Apps: Apollo, Browser, Email, Exchange Services, News & Weather, ROM Manager, and Superuser (I user SuperSU instead).

Could one of these be responsible for the leak? Can't think of another explanation, but then I'm not a developer! :)
[Galaxy S III General] K3yMaster:
Settings -> Apps -> Running

At the bottom, you can see used and available memory.
[Galaxy S III General] kitu-miyashi:
No memory leaks for me with this configuration:

I sync:

- gmail

- calender

- contacts

- browser

I don't sync:

- facebook

- ms exchange with build in email

I don't use anymore after bad experiences with drain in CM9:

- chrome

- g+ app
[Galaxy S III General] samuel583:
Ah thanks a lot, is approx. 280mb a reasonable figure?

[Galaxy S III General] w1nter456:
I don't know why, but it seems my s3 is smoother in faryaab ROM compare cm10, he used cm10 sources, but why is it smoother than original cm10? Could it be superuser problem? Faryaab ROM is supersu. Really noticeable.
[Galaxy S III General] jnr21:
Faryaab uses aosp sources.
[Galaxy S III General] tevion341:
Outgoing calls distorted

Same problem here.

Incoming calls are fine, on outgoing calls the other side can't understand me.

I'm on the newest build and fully wiped. (Germany D1 Telekom)

Tried different modems, all the same. Any help would be appreciated?
[Galaxy S III General] b_bhavu:
Don't think so!
[Galaxy S III General] irzero:
I have 2010 pro media and outbound calls only the sound is corrupt. I sound like a darlick. It makes all outbound calls after sound the same from the phone. I don't understand what's different about my phone that makes this happen. Works fine on stock?

I can see similar cyan problems on other phones with Bluetooth sound problems right back to cm7

[Galaxy S III General] ManCityFC:
Have you tried updating you cars firmware in ConnectedDrive? I found an update the other day. Bear in mind idrive (my car is a late 2011 model by the way, so should be much the same as yours) runs on Linux so you would expect them to play well together. I had issues with my old Sensation with stock ROMs and custom ROMs but everything has been great since I updated the car firmware. The changelog does actually say that one of the improvements is more phone support, so perhaps they updated the bluetooth stack?

The only issue I found with this ROM was syncing call logs didn't work properly, but I haven't re-paired it since this latest version, so it may work now? Bluetooth music works fine with Apollo too, but I have a 360GB pop drive plugged into my cars usb, do don't actually use it as there is 'plenty'of music on the pop drive! ;)
[Galaxy S III General] lawonga:
You seem to be correct, at least for me. I disabled Apollo, email, news and weather, ROM manager, and superuser and have not experienced any memory leaks yet. I'm starting to think it was superuser because menus seemed a bit faster after disabling it.
[Galaxy S III General] kitu-miyashi:
@ Codeworx

is it possible to modify the behavior of the home button a little bit. When I wake up the phone after display timeout with the home button, the phone wake up and jump to the home screen. It would be nice if the phone would stay in the browser after wake up with home button.
[Galaxy S III General] irzero:
It works fine on the S3 stock rom so it should work fine in Cyan. But there is something broken in Cyan 9 and 10 which creates this issue. I dont know if i can update my firmware unless i go to the dealer and they charge money to do it and its not cheap.

I have been googling and found the same issue that people have on other phones right back to Cyan 7 on many phones which describe the same issue with bluetooth sound. it seems to be intermittent which makes it harder to pinpoint.

i might just have to try another mod or the stock 4.1 when it arrives and remove the bloat.
[Galaxy S III General] XDA mark:
Installed superSU and disabled su. Going to see what happenes, though first impressions are good. Usually I would have had to reboot by now.
[Galaxy S III General] irzero:
This the problem i have but with bluetooth only... but all calls after are like this also!
[Galaxy S III General] w1nter456:
Really, I really love your work, but it is almost zero lag on faryaab rom, I don't really meant offend, you may try experience yourself. I have followed your ROM since preview 1 and everyday I tested your preview until latest, but still faryaab smoother, I think should be some bug related, since he using the same cm10 sources to compile.

Is based on his aosp, his aosp was based on cm10.
[Galaxy S III General] Oomahey:
You can update your firmware by downloading the correct firmware from sammobile.com. No need to go to service centre.
[Galaxy S III General] :
I got rid of that problem by using modem LF5.
[Galaxy S III General] irzero:
whats the risk if i change the modem?
[Galaxy S III General] :
usual flashing risks. nothing major. also LF5 doesn't work for me on LG8 Sammy Rom, so download both to sdcard and flash through recovery as needed.
[Galaxy S III General] vatvedt:
Second that. It's not a big deal for me, but it was a nice small feature to have from stock. When the screen turns off, just wake the screen (if pressing Home for the first second or two), instead of the usual Home feature to go to Home.

Thanks for your great work! It's much appreciated! :)

Having worst memory leak.. Free memory goes below 70 in an hour or so.

[Galaxy S III General] butcher211:
Can you plug in your Smartphone with USB cable to PC and than watch your memory every 2-3 hours please? I just think it could have to do with USB... im not sure its just a speculation
[Galaxy S III General] Epedemic:
Now im confused :P Is this running without butter? Because it feels so damn smooth already :D
[Galaxy S III General] 9Lukas5:
I have charged it in tbe last week often through the usb port of my laptop as I'm on holiday right now, and never had a problem during/after that. Try to disable superuser and use supersu, as xdamaik said yet it seems to have solved the memory leak on his phone. If it helps you and others too, we have found the solution.

I generally would like it to see cm using superSU as standard su app.

Hehe, yes thats without/(partial?) butter. But because we have such a strong hardware in our phone you don't recognize it as much as on a sgs1 e.g. ;)

L
[Galaxy S III General] samuel583:
Could you help me install SuperSU as my default superuser? Do I rename the .apk to Superuser.apk and replace the existing one? Also, will flashing new builds reset the superuser app? Thanks.
[Galaxy S III General] 9Lukas5:
Simply install superSU from the play store, open it and let it replace the su binary ( it'll ask superuser for root access). After it successfully updated the su binary to it's own one you can disable Superuser from the app settings. I'd advise you to have a look into the settings of superSU and disable the reauthenticate after app update ( it gone on my nerves in the past until I saw that option checked )

L
[Galaxy S III General] samuel583:
Thanks for the help, I've heard Root Explorer checks for Superuser.apk, however, and that would be an issue for me. I suppose I could test it, but if needed am I able to revert easily? Or is there a way to correct this issue?
[Galaxy S III General] Northern-Loop:
Just do what has been stated above. Root explorer works fine with SU :)
[Galaxy S III General] samuel583:
Cheers, Root Explorer works perfectly.

No issues with internet connection here, pretty stable after a few seconds.. iv noticed my call drop happens randomly also, not every call seems to drop..
[Galaxy S III General] 9Lukas5:
As you have installed is a userapp it won't be wiped on update and you only have to open supersu again and let it reupdate the su binary.

[Galaxy S III General] DvTonder:
I cannot see how the superuser app could be causing the reported memory leak. If it was the case I suspect all devices would have this problem, not just a few.

Let's see.
[Galaxy S III General] copponex:
Got the same issue in areas where reception isn't so good. I start out with 3g or h, but then at random times it goes down to edge, and will stay there till reboot.

cm 10

theres definitely something wrong with internet in these recent builds... always get disconnect...

just restarted the phone and it was ok, 1 min later i placed a phone call for 3 minutes or whatever and as soon as i hang out, got no internet again... the signal bars are ok, if i place another call.. is ok too, but the internet drops!

*obs using 3g, wi fi is always ok
[Galaxy S III General] ManCityFC:
If you have signed up to ConnectedDrive, then updates come in OTA through the cars in-built 3G - but you do need to ask it to check for updates in the car status or bluetooth config page. I tried to re-pair my phone again today, and call lists still don't sync properly even though I granted permission for the car to access them, so there must be some issue with CM10 and our cars bluetooth. But voice, music and phonebook all works fine. Strange. Never had a problem with anything though on CM9 on my S3 nor my HTC Sensation.

[Galaxy S III General] inffy:
Nobody knows. Depends on your are, country, phone etc
[Galaxy S III General] LPirro:
But what i want to know is the influence that the modem have to the phone, I mean, if i install that modem, i can have good signal or something like this?
[Galaxy S III General] inffy:
Well maybe, they make the signal better or worse, depends
[Galaxy S III General] XDA mark:
The modem has influence on:

Your signal strenght

Your download speeds

[Galaxy S III General] Lennyuk:
Thats not a fix, its a very dirty workaround, basically it forces android to close apps more frequently.
[Galaxy S III General] K Rich:
For those with call audio issues, what I've learned on mine to "fix" the audio issue is this:

I noticed that if I put my phone into vibrate mode and reboot, I'll have no call audio (regardless if screen lock sound is enabled). I will then turn the ringer up (aka not in vibrate mode) enable screen lock sound and reboot, and I'll have working call audio. This will last as long as I don't reboot the phone in vibrate mode. If you're interested codeworkx I can post a logcat tonight if you think it'll help find a solution.

Others with the issue try it out and see if you have the same outcome. BTW, I'm on the 8/4 build running LG8 modem.
[Galaxy S III General] :
Some info on what that actually does:

http://www.linuxinsight.com/proc_sys_vm_oom_kill_allocating_task.html

Basically it just kills which ever app you started that consumed the last bit of available memory..

About the memory leak.

Make sure lockscreen is enabled.

Goto Settings -> Apps -> Active and watch your RAM usage.

Power Button -> Power Button -> Unlock ->

Power Button -> Power Button -> Unlock ->

Power Button -> Power Button -> Unlock ->

Watch RAM usage...

Do this 50 times

Disable lockscreen and do the same...

I can only reproduce it on exynos devices.

Samsung Omap4 is fine and Samsung Qualcom is also fine.

Can someone reproduce?
[Galaxy S III General] Cyb3rGlitch:
Yeah, memory goes down when I do this. Went from 300MB free to 170MB free after quite a few on/off cycles.

Edit: Turning off lockscreen seems to make the on/off cycles use no extra memory. Odd.
[Galaxy S III General] edgarf28:
My free memory goes already down (300 -> 170) when I only go to Settings -> Apps

Even with my lockscreen set at disabled.

So I think the memory leak is not the lockscreen, but the Settings -> Apps menu thing....
[Galaxy S III General] Pyr0x64:
with lockscreen active and doing power > power > unlock multiple times, my available memory dropped each time.

after disabling the lockscreen and rebooting, when powering on and off, the memory usage remained the same, around 290-300MB free
[Galaxy S III General] Flynny75:
Can get it all the way down to 0bytes free. With lockscreen disabled free ram doesnt drop beneath 265mb (of course this being subjective depending on what apps you have installed, it would just suggest the phone has finished booting, and power cycling is not causing a problem)
[Galaxy S III General] irzero:

Just a question.

I am using CM10 20120731 Experimental.

Obv there has been updates since. This is first phone Android phone I have used to root and change ROMS.

What I wanted to know. To update to the lastest experimental build do I have to do a wipe or just download and install the ROM.

Just wanted to be 100% sure before I got home and download the lastest build.

Thanks.

With lockscreen disabled I went from 170MB / 200MB to 350MB.

Although I never had any problem regarding RAM. Even 170MB work good for me and I play heavy games, visit many websites, see a lot of youtube videos, etc.
[Galaxy S III General] iernie:
I can confirm that with lockscreen the amount of free ram seems to drop for every unlock, while with no lockscreen nothing happens.

I guess this is good news?
[Galaxy S III General] SjoerdvN:
Tried this and saw decrease in free memory.. However if I use the ' menu key to unlock' it looks like there is no leak.

So enable this menu, reboot, then toggle on/off using the menu key instead of the swipe to unlock.

Are you connecting your phone to Bluetooth whilst the phone is on silent or vibrate by any chance?
[Galaxy S III General] Grego81:
Everytime you scroll through the App Drawer or go back from home to app drawer this happens too. Happenes with Nova and Holo HD.

In the previous builds I used to maintain around 200mb ram free with Allow Purging of Assets option... not sure if that was actually working or just placebo, but it's not working at all now.

I have no idea... I apologize up-front but I'm gonna through this on the table: Scrolling Cache? Any other caches related to images? Does it go to RAM or SDcard? haha sorry.. I needed to ask.

Looks like everytime you go back to homescreen eats up 10mb.. With less widgets on it I see it eats up less memory.

I'm willing to get some kind of log that could help figure this out.. but don't know were to start.

Is there any modification in this build in relation to this recent UNLOCK consuming ram thing?

Another thing, although my signal is great and i can place calls nicely.. my internet keeps dropping all the time (3g with wi fi turned off) did u notice it?

Sorry for the off topic question: what is the best (safe) way to re-install all apps after changing the ROM? Titanium backup? I just heard of some friends that this might cause problems? I was also thinking about apkshare (guess it is storing all apk files on the sd card.. don't know if titanium is doing it the same way). Thank you for helping.
[Galaxy S III General] Vap0ur:
@Neokazaki: No in general it's best to avoid Titanium Backup, especially when moving between ROMs.

That's not to say it doesn't work. My usual tactic is to take full backups with is (as well as a nandroid backup of course), then restore apps that I really need individually (ONLY if I need their saved data, otherwise I do a clean install from market).

That way, if you one is going to cause a problem, you can isolate it pretty quickly.

EDIT: And a word of advice, I wouldn't report a bug based on an application you've restored via TB. You will always be requested to do a fresh install!
