Nope. It's strictly to avoid the random los. Ehrpd service is still strange. Noobnl is working hard to fix it though, given the amount of lj7 blobs builds.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] EndlessDissent:
You're comparing them wrong.

1. Bars are arbitrary representations of relative signal strength. They do not measure absolute signal strength. Signal strength is measured in dBm, not bars. You need to compare dBm to get an accurate comparison.

2. CM displays 3G signal strength when connected to 3G and 4G signal strength when connected to 4G. Stock ROMs show voice signal strength at all times, even when connected to 3G or 4G, so the bars you see on stock are for 1xRTT signal strength and will always be stronger than any 3G or 4G signal from the same source.

3. Going back to 1, CM and stock use a different number of bars in their respective signal meters, so they will always show different numbers of bars no matter what.

I just installed the one today (11/4) and MMS worked fine for me...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ascertion:
It's been confirmed MMS issues last few pages. Regardless, should work fine in next nightly.

---------- Post added at 12:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:19 AM ----------

Interesting. I always wondered why my bars were always full 5/6-6/6 bars on stock while cm had usually 1-2 bars of 3g. Stock is measured in 1x and cm10 displays it in 3g. Sweet. I just thought that the dBm measures just scaled lower on cm10 for some reason.

You learn something new everyday. ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DerIdiot:
I have chronic loss of 3g data and get cellular only service. Toggling airplane on/off fixes it, but it's aggravating!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] EndlessDissent:
I think the fix should be done soon. The most recent experimental build seemed to switch well between 4G and 3G. I was never disconnected for more than 5, maybe 10 seconds, and a lot of the switches seemed instantaneous, so progress is definitely being made.

---------- Post added at 10:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:28 PM ----------

It's also worth pointing out that in markets with 800MHz 1xAdvanced activated (Chicago and DFW for now), the stock signal will appear even stronger since it's going to be at a lower frequency with better coverage. 3G, however, will still be run solely off of 1900MHz with the same coverage as it has now. That will cause an even greater disparity between the stock signal meter and the CM meter since the 1900MHz signal will look even weaker in comparison.

As Sprint rolls out 800MHz 1xAdvanced, expect a lot more people to complain a lot more frantically, "Why does stock show full bars in my basement, but CM only shows 1 bar of 3G? WTF? Something's wrong! Fix it!"

Tried this but it fails for me. Tried both paste selection and move selection.

CM 10 Nightlies - Blazer Rom - TWRP
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] EndlessDissent:
I just tried it, and it didn't even give me the "Paste selection" or "Move selection" options. This is exactly what I mean when I say it's not intuitive. We shouldn't have to guess how to copy or move files like this.

Note that the bottom of the screen indicates that a file was selected, but the available options don't correspond. Am I doing something wrong? I selected the file in /storage/sdcard0/Download, then without performing any operations changed directories to /storage/sdcard0/1-ROMs, at which point I pressed the action button and was presented with the options in the screenshot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tlrsax54:
Right...I read that too I guess I am just lucky =)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GatoL0c0:
You have to touch the eight "dots" on the bottom left to see more options but either way it didn't work for me.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] HanMan5000:
YES! me to! I'm on this one: cm-10-20121102-NIGHTLY-d2spr

I like everything else, I just wish the intermittent loss would stop :/. It's only affecting the 3G/4G and cell data for me..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] EndlessDissent:
Whenever I press the action button a second time, the dialog box just disappears. Those seem to be my only options.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jeremiah.rs:
After you tick off the box next to a file or files, it should say "1 file selected" or 2 files/etc, after you've made the selection, just go to the place where you want to paste the files, press those eight dots, and on the left you should see an option for "Paste selection" I just did it on my phone, on my SD card, and it works perfectly fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] EndlessDissent:
That's exactly what I've been doing. That was how I got to the point in the screenshot. I explained the exact process in the post with the screenshot.

1. Select file.

2. Navigate to new folder.

3. Press action button.

That was the point at which I took the screenshot. I can do this all day. I get no options with the words "Paste" or "Move". I'm using the 11/4 nightly.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] s1dest3pnate:
When installing nightlies, should I be clearing cache and dalvik or anything?

Also, is it true that next nightly (I assume today 11/5) will have the LoS and MMS fixed?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] EndlessDissent:
Try the 11/4 nightly. It has a QualcommSharedRIL fix that seems to be working for me. I haven't had LOS at all yet. Though, I've only been using it for a few hours, but I used to drop to 3G a lot on previous builds, and 11/4 is treating me right (except for the file manager).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] G U C C I:
I don't think you HAVE to, but it's recommended.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jeremiah.rs:
That's really weird buddy, it's working here.

Try going to settings and see if the root access mode is enabled. See if that changes anything.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] EndlessDissent:
Ha. I figured it out. I was using the folder icon in the upper right corner to go back to the previous directory, and from there, going to the destination directory. It doesn't work, just like I experienced. However, to the right of the folder, if you select a directory from the list and go to the destination directory from there, the dialog has all of the options.

To clarify, what I was doing was selecting the file in /storage/sdcard0/Download, pressing the folder in the upper right to go back to /storage/sdcard0, then selecting /storage/sdcard0/1-ROMs. This resulted in the screenshot I posted earlier.

The proper procedure was to select the file in the Download folder, then select sdcard0 in the top-middle of the screen, then select the 1-ROMs folder. This results in the full dialog as shown in the post above this.

Both procedures should produce the same result. Clearly, there's a bug that needs reporting. Is the proper place to report bugs on the github page, or is there a better place? Edit: found the bug tracker. I'll fill out a report when I have more time tomorrow.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GatoL0c0:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] EndlessDissent:
Yup, fails for me, too. I guess there are two bugs to report for the file manager so far.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jeremiah.rs:
I see what it is, everytime I try to copy big files, it's failing. I was only copying and pasting smaller ones because it would be quicker, and they worked. So yeah, two bugs they need to fix.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GatoL0c0:
I just noticed this. When I use the paste option, it says it failed but when I back out of the folder and check again the file copied over. The move option just fails to do anything all together.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] js2shanks:
thank you for that information about the bars I appreciate it. So I have the same recpetion on CM10 as I would have on a stock rom, good to know. I have one more question how do you guys read the release notes for the new nightlies to know what is fixed and all that?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] EndlessDissent:
I suggest downloading BBQTools from the Play Store. It has a changelog for each nightly, and it's much more human-readable than the one you get from CM Updater.

I haven't had any issues recently, wipe and reinstall, maybe your rom got corrupted somehow?

If you're on the testLTE build, then your camera will not work.

Grab the latest nightly.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SadieNibblesworth:
For all of the people who install a latest build and find that their SD card is wiped and/or their data is corrupted, I don't know what to say. We hear about this on other forums, and I want to say that either you have a *&#^ed up SD card, or maybe you have a voodoo curse upon you.

it happened to me once. I don't for the life of me have any idea what happened. Only thing I can think is I accidently selected Wipe Data (in TWRP if you select that it wipes ALL data) and not wipe System. That's why I let the scripts handle that now
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] EndlessDissent:
Not if you use the factory reset option in the Wipe menu. That would only happen if you used "Format data" under Advanced. When TWRP wipes data, it specifically says it's wiping data without wiping /data/media/.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] EndlessDissent:
How much do you use MMS? There were a lot of MMS changes after 11/3, so if you use MMS a lot, you may want to update. There were also some minor changes to the camera. Other than that stuff, there isn't much reason to update to 11/6.

Edit: There are also a bunch of audio fixes, mostly for dock/HDMI/other output. And I think they fixed the error when moving files in the file manager. If any of that sounds important to you, you should consider updating.
