I use it now too, but BEFORE i flashed the new nightly I just found out

my RIL and baseband were not matching so I downloaded it, so it isn't

provided by my nightly ;). But indeed the modem is never being over-

written, until you install a new ROM or formatting it.

You sure? Thought I had another one when flashing it for the first time.
[Galaxy S III General] tux821:
lol, I learned how to do this now (thanx), dont know exactly which ril files.

How come my friend with the exact rom and kernel does not have any lagg when using his S3 while I do?. I'd like to take note that his s3 is the white while mine is the pebble blue.

edit: With the camera, I mean. And by camera I mean by taking pictures, switching between the 2 cameras.
[Galaxy S III General] Zatta:
No, I'm not sure about wich one actually, all I knew for sure it looked like that and that is is not the same one I use :) However, flashing nightly 1004 shows:XXDLI2;XXDLI3 with md5sum 8ee4496 ..... f1e84b

It is /system/lib/libsec-ril.so (same md5sum as GetRIL shows, only one that has a changed date stamp)

Attached zip flashes this script to /system/addon.d/66-rilsaver.sh (for the lazy ones, anyone else could add that file to one of the other scripts in there)

I'm really not sure if it's clever to just replace libsec-ril.so.

I think libsecril-client.so and libril.so should be replaced, too.

We can't say for sure since it's a black box, but.... nvm.

There are some RIL zips available via rommanager at my account.

[Galaxy S III General] Zatta:
I'm sure that that it's what GetRIL does, maybe that whole app is a scam. At least that it's the only file GetRIL replaces.

Checked again, that is indeed the only file GetRIL replaces. Some people swear they improved their battery life with that app, until the discussion here I was walking around with a non matching ril according GetRIL without me noticing it.

On the other hand, I've never been convinced of the benefits of changing modems, never been able to determine significant differences between them on my old sgs1.

Is cm10 actually working(fully) on any decent device except for the galaxy nexus?
[Galaxy S III General] tsangaris:
Since we got no stable edition of CM10 yet we don't have it working fully. Bugs like camera focus and some other minor things will always be there until the stable is out.

I have CM10 running on my GS3 international and since I installed it I have never thought of going back to Samsung's ROM.

My battery life is OK.

Its much more faster than samsung ROM.

I got real Jelly Bean experience almost 2 months before all my other friends running Samsung ROM.

I am sure that I will get jelly bean 4.2 faster.

Also installing a new ROM like CM10 you can really learn a lot of things thanks to the xda community, and for me this is the biggest advantage of all.
[Galaxy S III General] kickassdave:
Hey.. I'm not trolling but I'm inclined to comment on the whole speed thing. CM10 is definitely not noticeably faster than Samsung ROMs. We also get a much smoother JB experience, the only reasons I come back to cm10 every now and then are due to theme support and the extra UI customisations you get.

But I'm afraid the annoying bugs often outweigh those benefits for me, especially the buggy hwcomposer (not that it's perfect on Samsung ROMs.)
[Galaxy S III General] DROCSID:
Well, thanks for the clarification but I still think you are.
[Galaxy S III General] f0li0:
Samsung roms are smoother and faster, he's not trolling, just stating the facts. The CM Team do an amazing job with the tools they have to work with i.e. no Samsungs sources. That fact alone would suggest that the CM experience isn't as smooth. I love Cyanogen roms and have used them for a few years on various devices but on my sgs3 im currently sat on stock JB for full functionality, speed and smoothness.

Sorry for topic diversion.
[Galaxy S III General] Dark5tar:
Is this stable and reliable?
[Galaxy S III General] tux821:
Personally I like CM10 far more than stock Samsung rom. I use CM10 as my daily driver.

.. but, .. the best way is to just try it yourself. What are you waiting for?
[Galaxy S III General] Theshawty:
Stable, yes. Reliable, maybe. What are you expectations of reliability in i a rom? CM10 has all basic features one would need. The camera is decent and takes decent pictures, but that's all it's ever going to be.

Although, a decent AOSP rom (like CM10 or AOKP) is still better than Touchwiz.
[Galaxy S III General] tux821:
See this a lot 'buggy hw composer'.

Just want to know, what specific problems are there because of this.

I know Samsung does not deliver sourced etc, but what does not work on my phone with CM10 right now?

I know about the camera with touch focus and flash can have an initual crash. But I find this hardly a problem, I enjoy the camera on CM10.

Have you tried latest nightlies?
[Galaxy S III General] TheMrCaveman:
Using CM10 as daily since it came out.

Although some little issues but they fixed it pretty fast.
[Galaxy S III General] Theshawty:
Another problem with aosp-based roms is that the animations are buggy/jittery and that is because of the hwcomposer, I think.
[Galaxy S III General] XpLoDWilD:
Stability of the ROM doesn't depend on the fact the build is labelled as "stable" or not. Even if we allow i9300 to be part of next stable batch, it won't mean that the ROM will magically work. Remember stable builds are only a snapshot of nightlies considered stable.

We don't want to push it to stable because it is NOT stable. Camera got a lot of issues, hwcomposer is not working properly, etc etc. As long as we have those issues, we're not going to let this port be part of stable builds.

Yet, the ROM is still pretty usable. Blame Samsung for everything else.
[Galaxy S III General] tux821:
Agree, slight remark.

I have seen some nice 4.2 camera things already working on S3..

My opinion CM10 is great and will get better and even more awesome.
[Galaxy S III General] :
Hey guys quick question: How to restore my device Original RIL ? if i do a factory reset + cm10 install it will do the job ?
[Galaxy S III General] tsangaris:
And we are all blame Samsung for this!!

Also no one would like to name something as stable and in the end nothing to be stable. Better wait - and for cm10 I will wait as long as it takes.

Let's hope Samsung will help eventually.
[Galaxy S III General] kamalmawa:
Just reinstall the nightly... no need to factory reset
[Galaxy S III General] DROCSID:
So, just for my information;

- modem/baseband will be backupped? or also restored?

- RIL will be restored to original?
[Galaxy S III General] XpLoDWilD:
Modem is stored in another partition that we don't touch. If you want another modem, you have to flash it separately.

RIL will be the one we shipped within the ROM.

[Galaxy S III General] binaryanomaly:
I'm getting this "Couldn't connect to camera" messages as well. I did a full wipe and it still seems to happen after a while.
[Galaxy S III General] fonsigno:

[Galaxy S III General] onurerler:

[Galaxy S III General] XDA mark:
Same here, preview 2 I could make as many pictures as I wanted (with only the back cam offcourse, no switching or end of story). Since p5 I can only make the camera work once, after starting the app the second time I get a black screen or cant connect to camera message.

I guess Xplodwild has the same issue and enough people have provided logcats. I'm just curious if this problem is going to get solved in the near future or is this something that will remain untill the first Samsung JB leaks start popping.

I might have to leave CM10 if it will take long :( Really need my camera/video since I'm going on vacation soon. No disrespect to Xplodwild/Codeworkx, I know you are doing all you can to fix this. I guess it's no problem, I can restore my LFB ROM when I leave :)

Do as I did, backup cm10 then rollback cm9, then when back from holidays, go back to 10.
[Galaxy S III General] big_adventure:
Damn, I'd hoped that the camera problem was a bit better, but I'm getting similar crash results to P5:

Camera launches the first time, and for me, other times as well, but eventually it WILL decide to start up with the "Can't connect to camera" error messages.

One difference with P7 from P5 - under P5, CameraMX would still work even when the stock cam would not connect, but in P7, even CameraMX won't connect to the camera.

I see three files replaced and two of them actually changed:

-libril.so, not changed but touched.

-libsec-ril.so, replaced.

-libsecril-client.so, replaced.

I also did find those three files in a ril package.

Maybe its better to backup those three files?

If you come from samsung rom your sdcard is formatted exFat, this is not an 'open' format and not supported by CM.

If you want to use your sdcard with CM, backup your files, format it to fat or ext4 and restore.
