It doesn't matter. Just update as usual. ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GGXtreme:
Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I'm trying to pin down standby battery drain I've been getting with this ROM. My battery life with moderate to heavy usage is actually great—more than 4 hours of screen time and over 16 hours unplugged. But with extremely light usage (mostly standby), I can't seem to break 20 hours as my battery always drains at 5% per hour in standby. I've monitored CPU Spy and BetterBatteryStats, but there is no apparent wakelock going on and my phone is going into Deep Sleep normally. My cellular signal appears to be strong (I live in NYC) with no 'time without signal', and the biggest battery drain listed in Settings->Battery is always my screen, even if it's only been on for 20 minutes on minimum brightness over many hours unplugged. I don't have auto-backup enabled or anything major syncing besides contacts, calendar and a weather widget every 3 hours. Should I post BBS logs? I'm also starting to suspect the modem, as I've had the elusive LTE battery free-fall issue with the stock ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] AtoZ0to9:
Dude that's really good battery life... What's the problem?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GGXtreme:
5% per hour on standby doesn't sound good at all. That's significantly worse than what my friends get on their Galaxy S3's (mostly running stock TouchWiz), and it's even worse than my Captivate and Infuse get running AOKP with much smaller battery capacities. I understand there are a lot of factors, but I have less running or syncing on my phone than most people I know. I'm used to seeing at least 2 days of mostly standby time, but I'd be happy to even break 24 hours.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] AtoZ0to9:
Sorry I misread about the standby issue... Do you keep things turned on like GPS, WiFI, etc? Anything that would always be tracking your location whether it be GPS or network based? Do you use Facebook app? Is Maps ever on the list? Obviously screen will be on the top of the list, but what else is listed? screenie would help... and no wakelocks and it DOES deep sleep? What baseband?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GGXtreme:
I leave only GPS and mobile data enabled, but I have all the options like location reporting and location history disabled in the Maps settings. I rarely ever see the GPS turn on except when updating the weather. I don't use any social networking apps like Facebook, and I don't use Bluetooth. The only stuff listed besides screen on the Battery page is stuff like Cell Standby, Android System, Android OS, Messaging and the Keyboard, nothing like Maps or any suspicious apps. The top kernel wakelock was smdcntl0, but that was only listed for a few minutes, same with AudioOut_2 for partial wakelock. Nothing under either kernel or partial wakelocks surpassed 10 minutes and most were only a few seconds and did not seem to increase at all over many hours. I'll try to post screenshots from my next rundown. My baseband is UCLH9.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] AtoZ0to9:
Leave the GPS off unless you're navigating... you can be located very accurately by the towers... set your weather app/widget to NOT use the GPS, even if it's on, itll pull the same info... also, give LI5 baseband a try... it's been a lot better for most of us...

Hey guys... I'm getting some weird artifacts using this ROM... happens when watching videos but only when I adjust the volume. Also see it when entering or exiting games. Overlay is checked.. Also does anyone know why its scores so low on benchmark test? I know its a known issue but just curious to know...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
I've never seen these artifacts that you're talking about. HW Overlay doesn't need to be checked. Benchmarks throw out random numbers onto the screen. They are useless and not accurate at all. That's the reasons for the low scores. Does it really feel as slow as the scores show? I bet not. ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ViciousLSD:
Definitely not! Super fast and super smooth! I was using serenity ROM and was even thinking about cm10.. then I gave this ROM a try and I'm sure glad I did!! I will try to take a video of the issue I'm experiencing...

Thank you for the fast reply!!

I tried searching and could not come up with an answer. How do I set up LED notifications for Voicemail notifications? I tried using phone and it just labeled it as contacts.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] AtoZ0to9:
That's a fix... Voicemail = Missed call, so choose phone, it switches to contacts, and if you have a missed call it blinks....
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] deadlyrhythm:
Has anyone noticed lately or in the past couple of release that the camera freezes and locks your phone up?

It works for about 3-5 secs before the freeze until you need to do a hard reboot (pull batt) to get your phone back.

.

Tried a different camera app from the play store as well.

Tried not restoring apps from TB.

After I do a fresh rom flash, the camera seems to work flawlessly for around a day with some reboots in between.

Then after said time, I go to try it and it locks the phone up which I then have to do a hard reboot.

I've noticed this since the October AOKP releases, Paranoid and just tried the latest SLIM BEAN rom which are all built off of AOKP and CM so I wonder if its an AOKP issue for select (unlucky) users.

I've been trying to narrow it down as to when it happens or what changes, but so far its hard to pinpoint.

I suppose my next try would be to see if CM does it then perhaps that would indicate that its a AOKP issue
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ViciousLSD:
I'm on aokp build 5 and no issues here with the camera...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] heyepic:
Great rom but some plaguing issues on mine. I did do a full wipe. I'm on AT&T.

1) Phone calls sometimes have a really static/muffled noise whenever the person talks. I know from the get go it'll be that way because even the outgoing rings experience this. I just enabled noise suppression to see if it goes away.

2) Wake from sleep sometimes requires clicking the power button a few times / the physical button a few times. Not always...

Anyone have these issues? I've been going through pages of threads but haven't found these in specific.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] grubby0:
Number 1 hasn't been mentioned that I'm aware of. Number 2 is mentioned 8456 times and they are aware of it and working on it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] heyepic:
Thanks for the reply grubby - I'll hold tight on that one I guess. Clearly I missed all those references to this issue. ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] flaystus:
I just full wiped and came back to AOKP after finding the official JB to be a bit laggy.

Installed last night and everything is great but once I finally convinced the phone to connect to my car via Bluetooth there is no base in the audio.

Via phone speaker or headphones there is plenty of bass but via bluetooth there is nothing.

edit: Also is there a kernel I can run for better battery life then the default with this rom?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] grubby0:

After flashing 7/26, I lost write access to my external sd card. It was mounted as /storage/sdcard1 before, also had a mount point at /external_sd. Now, no app can write to my external sdcard. I was having issues with SU before I noticed this, but was able to iron out this SU issue by removing the update and reinstalling it again. But after that, no app can write on my external SD, and this happens only on 7/26 build. I restored from the earlier build and it was fine. Any ideas?

It is not there at this time, so you are not overlooking it. No idea when it will return, but it is likely low- priority.

Dialing Issues

Is anyone else having issues dialing out? I can dial some numbers and hear the person on the other end fine. Then other numbers I do not hear the phone dial or the person answer when I call them. It seams like the ones that work are local calls and the ones that don't work are long distance. I've had people call me back and ask if I tried to call them so I know the call is making it. When they do call me back I can hear fine. I'm running the 7/26 build with the 7/25 build KT747. My modem is UCLEM. Anyone else?

go into SU app, scroll over to info, where it says su binary under that it says tap to check for updates, tap there and it will updated. this worked for me.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CamFlawless:
Kernels tend to affect every phone a little differently so you're best to try out a few and see how they perform for you. I know popular kernel include KT747 and Lean Kernel.

Another option would be to try changing your governor/io settings in a third party app such as voltage control. I used the packaged underwear kernel with Intellidemand / Deadline and experience tremendous battery life.

WIFI Hotspot

After searching through this thread as well as reading through the kernel thread and rom development thread, I am still in need of an answer.....

Here's my setup:

Bell i747m

Ktoonsez & Task 12.2.12 Rom

12.5 Kernel

VLDLK4 Modem

I love this rom and everything works well, except the Wifi Hotspot for me :/

I am able to create a hotspot, and set up encryption, the other devices see the SSID and can log into the network, however the phone will not provide them with an internet connection. For example I can have my laptop or xbox connected and it will show its connected to AndroidAP however both will indicate "No Internet Connection"

I have done a full "clean" install of the rom 4 times now, usually in the following order

Wipe Data/ Factory Reset

Wipe Cache

Format System

Wipe Dalvik Cache

Install Rom

Install Gapps

Reboot

Recovery Mode

Wipe Cache

Wipe Dalvik

Install Kernel

Wipe Cache

Wipe Dalvik

Reboot

Restore Apps only (no data) using titanium backup pro

Reboot

And a few variations to the above and I can't seem to get tethering to work

I've tried installing FoxFi and wifi tether for root and nothing works, I get ad-hoc error messages on the program

I have an unlimited Data Plan from MTS up here in canada however no tether......

But...... When I was running a ICS based rom I had no problem getting the tethering to work and it worked wonderfully, now that I have left that other rom behind, and upgraded to a much better rom, I can't get the one feature that for me is a must have.....

Anyone willing to help?

Or guide me in the right direction?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
This subject has actually been posted a ton of times here in this thread and my ROM thread. Seems like the only thing you can do to fix is start trying to recode the WiFi tethering services for the Canadian carriers for this ROM or find a 3rd party app that will work for you. I don't have Canadian service so I can't really justify spending much time on it with the little time I have for these projects.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kellz204:
I saw a couple threads on the subject in your rom thread but when I clicked to go view the post when I was using search the post was gone...... in your room is the tethering provision removed by default or is that what I am battling against that my

Carrier is blocking it for some reason on JB/AOKP roms?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
This isn't a touch whiz based ROM. Which is what you're referring to when stating "tether provisioning." That has nothing to do with aosp based roms. I actually have no clue if your carrier is blocking anything considering I don't have the same service as you do. I tether just fine with att.

Finally got tethering to work, what I did was wipe my cache and dalvik cache, went into my sdmaid pro and ran a cleanup of my root directory. What I found in a dead directory was a profile for wireless tethering (can't remember the directory) which came up as a corpse folder after doing that I installed a fresh download of Wi-Fi tether for root rebooted and now I have tethering:beer:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Then it seems there is nothing that can be done for you. My ROM 100% has the option to choose storage directories. If you've flashed something outside of what I provide in the OP of my ROM thread then you should expect things like this to happen.

1.) Redownload the ROM and Gapps

2.) Follow the installation instructions exactly as they are stated in the OP.

3.) DO NOT FLASH ANYTHING ELSE. JUST THOSE TWO THINGS!

4.) Now watch how problem free things are and that you have the ability to change storage options in the camera settings.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] milicigoran:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] milicigoran:
No problem at all. I thought that you thought I was saying something bad about the ROM when I wasn't. Was just curious if there was a way to change the storage location. When you replied with "ugh" at the end if your reply I thought you were annoyed. But I'm not a tool I obviously checked the camera settings. There is no problem I was just saying I like your ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Alright. So this is now two pages of you saying the same thing. So I want to squash this now to stop the repetitive postings. ;)

1.) Glad you like the ROM.

2.) There is a way to change the storage options. I only use external SD for all my pictures and music. Go into camera settings and select it. It works perfectly.

3.) If its not there then you did something wrong. Redownload the ROM and gapps from my OP and flash them to get it working. Follow all the installation instructions exactly as they are stated.
