I don't think that's the case. The monetary gain from their software being used isn't remotely close to what they gain on hardware sales as a result from sources being available to the dev world. Sure, they need better documenting, and perhaps that's just a matter of having the right people at those buttons, which right now is not the case; The people releasing their sources are NOT the developers themselves, which is of course a really dumb thing to do.

I think by now Samsung could not care less if the entire source the S3 is running on had become wide-open. They win more than they lose making that decision. Someone with a brain needs to wake up at Samsung though, so they'll provide proper documentation etc.

Hi guys, i'v been using this ROM for few days and its realy amezing. Fast, smooth and it seems, that everythink is working to me (build 26/9). So thanks for great work devs.

But i have few questions. Is there aby way to remove the 2 seconds lag, when device is waking up from sleep mode? I'v had this issue on every ROM i tried do far. Do do guys have this issue too? And another question - how about battery life? It seems, that this ROM has quite battery drain. I tried temasek's kernel and it has better battery life, but its still not perfect.. Do you know guys domě better kernel? Because i cant find any other but temasek's. And what governor in settings do you use? Thanks guys for reply!

I don't have the 2 second lag when waking up. I use temasek's KANG of CM10 plus the latest kernel from http://d-h.st/users/siyah/?fld_id=5774#files

Using the pegasusq governor (default in Siyah). You can save on battery-life trying to undervolt and use lower CPU- and GPU speeds, but don't go overboard on those, start with small steps and note what happens for a couple of days.
[Galaxy S III General] :
sorry mate. Nothing changed :(
[Galaxy S III General] dboechat:
Maybe a stupid question, but did you reboot the phone afterwards? :)
[Galaxy S III General] :
Yep i did. Everything Worked fine on CM10 09/19/2012.

But now, on latest nightly i cant get GPS to lock. It takes like 5 minutes to.
[Galaxy S III General] :
http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommana...t&name=codeworkx&deviceName=Samsung Galaxy S3

don't think there is nightly from 19th, but maybe 18th. anyway, take a look at link, but i suggest you flash 3part ICS odin firmware via Odin to clean everything up, reroot and then flash latest nightly and profit.
[Galaxy S III General] :
Just flashed cm-10-20120920-ODIN-i9300.tar.md5 from First post using odin.

Wiped Cache/Factory Reset.

Rebooted and... same **** going on :( sometimes it locks fast, other times 3,4,5 minutes.

lol maybe Im living on a cave or undersea. Im running out of options
[Galaxy S III General] regardtv:
What worked for me:

Installed "GPS Test" by Chartcross limited

Open it, Select Settings

Click "Clear AGPS"

Click "Update AGPS"

give it a moment ... and it should work... Mine needed a flush of the AGPS and then it caught a wake up...
[Galaxy S III General] Exqlusive:
Just tried this rom and so far it's good. Just wondering if anyone has had problems regarding the front facing camera not working at all and instagram just refusing to connect to the camera?
[Galaxy S III General] fervorous:
I am using Holo Launcher HD and it is smooth. The only issue is some redrawing when you view widgets in app drawer
[Galaxy S III General] peterperfect:
Hum, you found no way to fix it because this is not a issue at all. Device takes time to wake up.
[Galaxy S III General] aydc:
Then why do devices made by HTC, Motorola, Sony etc. etc. need no time to wake up? Only Samsung devices with Exynos SOC need 1.5 to 2 seconds just to show the screen. This is just another epic fail by Samsung.
[Galaxy S III General] :
hehe be gratefull... right now I'm in a demonic battle with my Galaxy S3 gps. That bastard wont lock inside, outside takes 3 minutes.

I wish my problem was those 2 seconds to wake up.
[Galaxy S III General] LemonPlusTea:
Hey guys, I came from ICS stock and flashed CM10 a couple days back.

I've been using the CWM that came with CF-Root for my backups.

CM10's ROM manager seems to have a updated version of CWM. Whenever I backup the ROM with the new CWM it works fine, then tells me this error

Unable to find mounted volume : /sdcard

Error finding an appropriate backup handler.

Any ideas?

Is this maybe cause I backed up the ROM to the external SD card instead? :eek:

EDIT : Nevermind. Checked out the CWM 6 thread and it appears other people are having the same problem too :/

Edit 2 : I've tried backing up to phone memory but I get the same error. i was able to backup nandroids with Chainfire's CWM. Is there something I'm doing wrong?:/

Last edit : Nevermind. LOL. I reflashed Chainfire's CWM over the 6.0 CWM. Backups work fine now. (:
[Galaxy S III General] rvdveen:
GPS wont lock inside? .... Do you not have to have a clear view of the sky to lock a GPS signal? ....
[Galaxy S III General] Entropy512:
change the region code... it's been changeable in settings for 2-3 weeks now...

No, there isn't. Don't you think that after over a year and a half, if there were a way to make the modem wake up faster, someone would have figured it out?

Admittedly I9100 added around 200ms with ICS, but that seems to have been reduced again in later ICS releases for that device. Either way, the modem interface takes forever to wake up and it'll always be this way.
[Galaxy S III General] eseregin:
About HWcomposer - as i understand this feature was implemented since ICS to go from hardware GPU acceleration to OpenGL software acceleration of screen.

https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android/ICSwithSoftwareGL

The same as i understand this feature can be just disabled - use HW GPU instead of CPU rendering.

Why software OpenGL run smoother than native HW GPU accel? As i know GPU not bad at all in our phone...

So if we switch "Use HW accel 2D" in development it should disable using hwcomposer and use native GPU accel for drawing screen?

If so, very understandable why this option getting phone act faster

Other - as i can see source of HWcomposer - this is not so big code - https://android.googlesource.com/pl...surfaceflinger/DisplayHardware/HWComposer.cpp

Is Sammy implementation of this code really dramatic different or what exactly the problem in using HWcomposer?

---------- Post added at 09:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:01 AM ----------

Why we need to wake up modem turning on screen itself?

Let modem waking up after screen up, could we just parallel those 2 process and dont wait for modem waking up screen?
[Galaxy S III General] rush25:
Guys i just want to ask that is butrer working 100% on S3 coz i heard its working partialy..and is butter working fully on stock jb?

I am asking this coz i am plaaning to buy a new S3 coming from S2 :)
[Galaxy S III General] jemz0r:
If Poland LIB JB FW is back to r2p4, then this Samsung released FW should have memory leak??
[Galaxy S III General] Theshawty:
I thought you could remove the wake up lag by changing IDLE+LPA to just IDLE? (Or maybe it was IDLE+AFTR)

It was my understanding that Samsung devices were sleeping more deeply than other devices (and the Galaxy Nexus)
[Galaxy S III General] Toss3:
No. You still need to check force gpu-acceleration and hw composition in order to have a smooth experience.
[Galaxy S III General] eseregin:
CM10 works pretty smooth.

Stock as well.

But Butter as it is does not work now not on stock not on CM10

If you need butter, better buy Nexus
[Galaxy S III General] jaju123:
Ticking those makes no difference for me. If anything, it makes it stutter and lag more.
[Galaxy S III General] Toss3:
To be honest, I did not know exactly what those to options did until recently, so I just turned them off too(I thought GPU acceleration was the same as hwcomposer, but apparently they are indeed quite different). Well, guess we all learn something new every day. Should have a Sticky explaining what hwcomposer is exactly and what those two options do. Seen a lot of people asking about that.
[Galaxy S III General] w1nter456:
No, it is cheap butter from discount.
[Galaxy S III General] eseregin:
Probably you right, it should speed up waking up time.

May be AFTR even better (AFTR is a patch to support Top=Off mode for deep idle. Level 2 cache keeps it data during this mode.)

Just AFTR, you can not set together IDLE + AFTR.
[Galaxy S III General] TecQuality:
guys, anyone is using LIGHTFLOW? issues with this ROM?
[Galaxy S III General] eseregin:
It is MAKE difference - not sure about animation speed, but even picture of screen changes somehow - it LOOKS a little different
[Galaxy S III General] Toss3:
Could someone please explain what "Force GPU Rendering" does(I know it uses GPU for 2D acceleration, but is it different from the built-in hwcomposer and is it needed for Jelly Bean)? Enabling it does make a difference, but I'm not sure if it should be enabled or not.

Searching google only resulted in a cluster**** of misinformation and no official explanations.

EDIT: Found this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8582355/android-ics-what-does-the-system-force-gpu-rendering-option-actually-do, so apparently it does matter whether it is enabled or not.
[Galaxy S III General] djselbeck:
Force GPU Rendering ist for android applications which does not have the HW-acceleration flag in the MANIFEST. So it forces HW-accelerated rendering for old applications (pre android 3.0) and those which have it disabled otherwise.
[Galaxy S III General] Matc21:
To the guys complaining about the wake up time.

My devise wakes up almost instantly with no delay. I remember having a small delay (no way 2 seconds) before but since the latest nightlies, don't know exactly which one, it's gone. Very smooth and super fast.
[Galaxy S III General] eseregin:
Continues spamming

For hwcomposer.h

As i understand, the main object that encapsulate functionality of drawing canvas is hwc_layer

typedef struct hwc_layer {
/*
* initially set to HWC_FRAMEBUFFER, indicates the layer will
* be drawn into the framebuffer using OpenGL ES.
* The HWC can toggle this value to HWC_OVERLAY, to indicate
* it will handle the layer.

So, if hwcomposer is broken, hwc_layer will be set to HWC_FRAMEBUFFER.

So, HWC_FRAMEBUFFER - is it possible to speed up working of this one "painter"?

Suppose this is Open Source part?

PS

Eeehhh

I can see a lot of optimization is doing for Krait

[Galaxy S III General] furyau:
Have you tried a full wipe? I had to clear cache and dalvik and then clear gaps data
[Galaxy S III General] codeworkx:
it's normal that it takes a little bit to come out of the deep sleep. if it doesn't then your device wasn't sleeping properly.
[Galaxy S III General] Jezwick:
todays nightly is up already

:good:
[Galaxy S III General] lestalegend:
There is no ability to set individual contact led lights and notification tones with the standalone settings so light flow does have its advantages. The trade off being decreased battery time / wakelocks and thus the reason why I stopped :D
[Galaxy S III General] kizzmaul:
Where can I find the buglist of CM10 for S3?
[Galaxy S III General] TecQuality:
yep, you're right, i've just tried your feature, works flawlessly! :D
[Galaxy S III General] Antony_McLovin:
With activated GPU rendering the last three builds are very nice and fluid.

So if you have problems with smoothness in different apps like whatsapp and keyboard delays activate GPU rendering.

The only bug left is that changing the camera to the front camera takes more than 5 seconds. Others say that there is also a bug affecting the flash light by focusing the camera. So for daily use the latest builds are awsome.

Nice work!
[Galaxy S III General] gokhanmoral:
yes! finally!! I have no wifi on cm10 :)

it was as hard to reproduce the problem as fixing it....

now I hope I can fix it. too little quote left in my data account is my biggest motivation :)
[Galaxy S III General] w1nter456:
So we only have cheap butter?
[Galaxy S III General] XDA mark:
At the moment yes.

Though I just had a moment thinking about this whole situation. The only reason people aren't satisfied with the (imo) amazingly smooth and fast experience like it is now in cm10, is because they have the Galaxy Nexus as a comparison. Yes I want the best possible too, but really... isn't the device fast and smooth enough?

You know what, for me it is. My friends using unrooted S3's are amazed by the speed of cm10. My friends with One X's and other HTC devices are amazed. Even people with iPhone's are amazed. Isn't that more important then the tiny idea that the Galaxy Nexus/Nexus 7 (which are made to actually run stock android) are a tiny bit smoother?
[Galaxy S III General] TecQuality:
anyone has noticed an issue with rom manager? it downloads the latest build until the 99% then stuck, so i need to restart the download and it gives me the 1% that i need to complete the download.
[Galaxy S III General] w1nter456:
Ya, i really like how cm10 developing and really love it but i hate how samsung give us cheap unfinished project butter. It is the biggest feature of jelly bean, how can they give us unfinished software and roll out loud?
[Galaxy S III General] Dazzuko:
Installed CyanogenMod 10 yesterday on my S3 and it's working perfectly. Also changed the Kernel to Siyah 1.6rc2 for overclocking, and its all still running very smoothly at 1600mhz cpu and 700mhz gpu. Good job and thanks!

The only slight issue I've had is that my VPN keeps dropping out. This could just be a problem with my VPN supplier but thought I'd mention it incase anyone else has the same issue.
[Galaxy S III General] Cyb3rGlitch:
Really... I find this very hard to believe. Have you used an iPhone? It's a lot smoother than even the Galaxy Nexus on 4.1. I highly doubt they were amazed by the fluidity of your S3.

The problem here is that you're more interested in comparing with other devices and making concessions, than aiming for the best possible experience. At this point, the experience is sub-par, and I say that with full respect to the developers who work on CM10. Samsung dropped the ball, don't give them a free ride.
[Galaxy S III General] eseregin:
Really?

I saw IPhone and internet browsing experience much better on my SGS3 with CM10.

Those who deppresed by "slow" animation just turn bloody animation off!

You seriously guys thinking animation is the main feature of phone?
[Galaxy S III General] XDA mark:
The iPhone users had the "old android" devices in mind, which were terrible in the smoothness/speed department. Having these old devices in mind, it probably gave them an extra "wow".

Yes, I agree that in theory the S3 could do better. But really, all my apps open instantly, it's smooth, it's fast. The Human race has gotten were it is because we always want to do better and better, even if something "seems good enough". So I'm happy that people strive to get an even faster and smoother performance on the S3, but sometimes I think it's excellent like it is. What would be the benefit for you if the S3 was exactly as smooth as the Galaxy Nexus? (So we're talking level 9 (s3) against level 10 (nexus)) Would that one micro second make you have time for an extra hour of doing something else, every 10 years :P no offence I get your point, but maybe you can also see what I see.
[Galaxy S III General] Cyb3rGlitch:
No one said anything about animations. The OS is more fluid in almost every way, including web browsing. It also tracks the finger a lot better. There's no denying this, it's a fact. I own both iOS and Android devices, I see the difference all the time.

As a community, we need to stop pretending that competition is inferior. Otherwise we'll always settle for less.

---------- Post added at 08:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:51 PM ----------

The difference is that you're settling for a product that isn't as good as it should be. We don't want Android's motto to be "Good enough".
[Galaxy S III General] Lannyx1:
same for me, i have also the iphone 4s with ios6 and is smoother than the s3 with cyano (the official jb is terrible),i have 2000 photo in the ios gallery and them don t need to create any cache for scrolling the pics database and the others apps open in a half (sometime 5x) time than the s3. but... the most thing don t have ios is: GOOGLE EXPERIENCE, after 2 weeks of business and personal use YOU CANNOT come back to ios,with android you can work like a notebook,with apple you have only a big remote controller for apps on demand like tv : press button for channel 1,press button for channel 2...etc
[Galaxy S III General] respider:
I'm using android for a week now and this is my first cyanogenmod (flashed it before sleep yesterday).

I'm very satisfied with "smoothness" and it is indeed much faster than stock roms or custom roms based on stock.

Today I'll test battery life and GPS. If everything is ok for me, I'll definitely stick with this rom.

Good job guys!

I'm not saying much at all, but WiFi Client mode against a WPA2 router worked directly after my nighty upgrade. On the other hand I lost WiFi tether which worked on the last version I was using (20th Sept).

I'll investigate further and try to manually activate it via terminal.
