I know it may sound ridiculous, but the battery drain is starting again... I went to bed with 98% and woke up with 83%. Everything was turned off, except 2G network.

Changing modems stopped the draining only for a few hours...(?!) :what:
[Galaxy S III General] Code124Y:
nice... but with data on or off?

if with data off/WiFi off, i manage to get 1% battery usage for 6hours or more(over night time) with CM10 or AOKP.

Well it was possible on the HTC Desire with CM7 trough a kernel patch, I'd reckon it should pose no issue as that is up to the user to confirm if it's legal yes or no.

Here in the Netherlands if you call a callcenter they record your calls and so can we. It's a great tool to have if you work in and with callcenters a lot and right now I'm missing the feature but don't want to move backwards to a stock ROM.

is NFC working in CM10? :confused:

I am currently using CM 10 nightly 20121030 and I noticed that when I am trying to enable or disable Mobile data from the notification drawer it doesn't work. It works only if the data are disabled and you want to enable them. After that if you want to disable them you can't even thought sometimes the icon looks like its inactive.

Has anyone else experienced that?

And just to be clear if I go through System Settings --> Data usage --> mobile data it works perfectly. I am referring strictly to the notification drawer where I manually added from Notification drawer--> widget button--> toggle mobile data.

Thanks in advance.

Keep up the great work!!

I got the same problem before, so I used "Profile" and it's fine. Now I'm on the 1101 nightly and I use the "getRIL" app to get the right RIL for my radio and everything seems to be switching fine now too. You can try those 2 solutions

[Galaxy S III General] Astrofrigo:
I'd say that it's indeed rebooting during some part of the night, maybe during its deep sleep phase there's some wake lock that causes an error and therefore, reboot. You could try to track it down with catlog, check at battery stats when there was a turn off and try to find it on the log. Send it to the developers @ de cm10 development thread.

Hello dear friends :)

I'm using CM10 on my i9300 for a month and got one annoying issue.

Sometimes when I press power button (to see unlock screen and unlock the phone), nothing is happened (no unlock screen is appears), and the phone did not respond to any actions. The only way to back him alive is to turn off a battery :( I got this issue 4 times.

Is anyone saw something similar on his phone?

Thanks.

Found a little bug,

When connected to a Bluetooth Headset all audio and functionality is fine.

However if you wish to disconnect from the headset and transfer the call/audio back out the phones headset, you cannot hear the caller.

They can hear you but you cannot hear them...

He probably wants to move some assets to the external SD card. Which is technically possible, and while Root Explorer and others can do it, FAT32 can't, and that's what almost every SD card is formatted in. Anything else and it won't Mount in windoze. But using MTP solves that problem.

[Galaxy S III General] yshan:
I've bought a used s3 three days ago from a quite reliable vendor. The first thing I did was to root the phone, make a nandroid backup and flash the newest cyanogenmod nightly. However the phone reboots 2 to 3 times a day without any good reason (eg when I start play store or try to go to settings)

Also sometimes it just won't start any apps. The home screen works but as soon as I start any app it fc's.

I flashed the nightly using CWM recovery touch 6.0.1.2 doing a full wipe (format system, factory reset, wipe cache and wipe dalvik). The problem occurs on every nightly available from the last days. I tried to look for an M-snapshot but I realised that there is no M-snapshot yet available for i9300?

So today I restored to stock from nandroid and the stock UI also has the same issues (random reboots).

I'm also using Titanium backup to restore apps and user data on the phone (no system settings (the red ones in TB). Is this an issue?

Could it be that the baseband I have (XXLH1) is causing these issues?

I'm sorry if this is a known bug, but I'm pretty new to the phone and I haven't found anything useful from the opener and the last 20 pages on this thread. Also there was nothing in the FAQ's.

I hope it's not the worst case, that my phone has hardware issues because from what I read, the flash counter still can't be resetted to 0 and I have no warranty anymore?

Any help is deeply appreciated.

Updating CM10

I flashed CM10 Custom ROM 2 days ago and I have few questions in the bucket :)

1) How often should I upgrade the ROM?

2) Should I have to do a factory date reset and wipe cache before upgrading to the latest CM 10?
[Galaxy S III General] wolfboy1984:
@yshan

You need to wipe data/ factory reset in recovery.

Never! restore system apps!

+ you never mentioned fixing permissions in recovery >advanced. Do that if you haven't already...

Fixed.
[Galaxy S III General] yshan:
I did wipe data/factory reset. Even for each nightly (from 30.10 to today)

Sorry I forgot to mention fixing permissions. I did this twice after the reboots. Maybe I should do it right after I flashed the nightly?

I didn't restore any system files (but I had to learn this on the hard way already ;) )

I've been using CM10 for about 3 days now and I have to admit to the smoothness and overall usability of the phone. Trumps stock JB all day.

But I just have one glaring issue. Every time its going to dim its light (on its way to sleep or if the ambient light is dim) the transition from full brightness to dim isn't that smooth. It's slow and noticeable and I'm anal when it comes to this. I appreciate all your input regarding this.

(Thanks to all who created CM10. Let's brace ourselves on November 13 and see what Uncle Sam has to offer - hopefully full documentation of Exynos.)

Note: if you come from other roms you should wipe, see OP!!
[Galaxy S III General] mdfpido:
Your mileage may vary, but to all those facing huge battery drain, just flash Siyah Kernel. It won't make your CM10 like stock ICS when it comes to battery life but will have improved battery life than with just stock JB.

You don't flash every nightly. Follow the changelog, if you find anything significant download and flash. Nightlies are created and pushed out by buildbot, a "machine" if you please.

Try it! At worst, if you have odd, unsolveable problems, just go wipe then.

I went from 2 to 4 wiping cache/dalvik, had huge issues, wiped, still had issues.

4 to 5 wiping cache/dalvik - some issues, wiped, they didn't get better.

5 to 7, wiping cache/dalvik (though it's possible that they moved Dalvik to /cache, so I'm not sure that added anything), and almost everything I care about seems good:

No more sound issues, even using Doggcatcher (which instantly killed system sound until reboot under 4 and 5) or Apollo (which sometimes did the same).

Camera autofocus works again with the JB camera (it did not under 4 and 5).

I can restart the stock camera consistently (this was also the case under 5, under 2 and 4 it was NOT) and use it for photos. I have not yet tried video and face cam, but I can live without those for the most part, and I have CameraMX for Video until I'm sure it's good with stock.

Call mic works on the first call and on all succeeding calls (under 2 and 4, on the first call incoming or outgoing call, I could hear the other party, but they could not hear me. I worked around this by just calling my own desk line and connecting to voice mail after each reboot. Under 7 at least, this is no longer the slightest issue).

Battery life isn't bad so far, but I'll need longer to be sure - this morning:

87% currently (was 100% at disconnect from charger)

4h53 on battery

50 minutes on wifi, 4h03 on 3g or edge data (depending on where I am - 3G and wifi are always enabled even when not connect-able)

22m screen on

31m listening to streaming music

30m listening to a downloaded podcast

downloaded a 50mb podcast over Wifi

Sync on for 3 google accounts

Camera and mic tests

2 calls, 4 minutes total

6 text messages sent

7 emails sent

3 contacts created

The LED does NOT illuminate when charging, but since I use the phone as my alarm clock and charge it overnight by my bed, I'm happy about this.

[Galaxy S III General] Cyb3rGlitch:
Next version of Siyah has JB support. Wait for that.
[Galaxy S III General] big_adventure:
Video problem confirmed with the stock gallery player. Open a video (it happened with every one I tried) let it play, when the scrobble bar slides off, the screen freezes. Sound still works, and tapping the screen causes the video to run again (it brings back the scrobble bar), but video remains frozen.

This does not happen in MX Player Pro, which is what I use for video anyway.

Other issue I've started to notice - if you are looking at the screen, and the screen times out, if you tap the home button to light the screen back up before the screen locks, it returns you to the home screen, just as if you had pressed the button when not looking at a black screen. I do not have Delay Screen Lock turned on. My workaround here is to set the timeout longer - 1 minute for me avoids pretty much any unwanted auto-blackout.
[Galaxy S III General] cameronh90:
How do you change your network preference? My provider has a problem where 2G/3G handovers don't work well, so in the stock ROM I set network preference to WCDMA only. It seems to be missing in CM10 though?

It was previously in Settings -> Wireless and Networks / More... -> Mobile Networks -> Network Preferences -> WCDMA Only
[Galaxy S III General] Flynny75:
You can use cyandelta to update the ROM with delta updates. They are only about 10mb each
[Galaxy S III General] sathkartha:
You don't have to change if it is working fine. However, XXDLID is the newest for JB while what you have was for ICS.

.. or if you want the complete package, you can also use the excellend CM updater feature, see settings, information.

They will perform the same however, if you installed the Samsung JB ROM it will have updated your phone's NFC firmware and if you then install CM10, you will not be able to turn NFC on/off. You need to install a Samsung ICS ROM first - it will downgrade the NFC firmware to a compatible version.
