My phone won't boot with the latest release, it just gets stuck at the boot screen with the underwear kernel. I've tried wiping and redownloading and multiple versions of TWRP and CWM. I've been at this for hours :( Can anyone help? I'm at CWM 6.0.3.1 right now but I'm reluctant to try and flash back to TWRP lest I get this stupid password prompt, and nothing works.. You can see my adventures with that here. I'd really like to have this fixed before I go back to work tomorrow. Any suggestions?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] crewxp:
I've had this problem for a good long while now. Does anyone know a quickfix for it?

When playing music (google play music), there aren't any lockscreen controls anymore to pause or fast forward the music. Sometimes the lockscreen flickers, the controlers are visible behind the lockscreen, but then disappear. Also no controls in the drop down menu at the top.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Yes there is and it works just fine. Fully wipe your device and try again.

Still can't see pics swiping from the camera app. Tried clean wipes and no additional apps twice. Also tried the advice from the guy in the dev thread and still same issue.

Last time it worked normally was two builds ago.

Not sure what else to try.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Things only two things you can try is at this point are...

1.) Write the code to fix it.

2.) Wait to see if future releases fix it for you.

app2sd mod

I use zedomax's app2sd mod to swap my internal and external drive. It works with every ROM, except this one, it used to a few months ago. Does this ROM no longer have init.d support? Actually script manager doesn't even work it's like something is preventing the swap to occur. All my back up are on my external SD. How do I make it work? (The swap)

Ribbon Thread

A thread dedicated for the added ribbon feature was mentioned on the dev thread. I have looked on and off for the past couple of days for something like this but only find threads that mention what it is.

Where is this thread?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
i havent looked at tasks kernel source for details but just off the top of my head, have you tried using a kernel with known init.d script support? cheers
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrnovanova:
That's what I thought too so I flashed ktoonsez latest but to be honest I didn't take the time to verify if it had init.d support. I'll check that out. Thanks.

Edit: So I checked and apparently ktoonsez's kernel does have init.d support but I'll try another one to be sure.

Nope, I always fully wipe.

I'm not sure if this is the case. I have never had any gps problems on tasks ROMs, until this one. Even when losing gps from flashing tw , it's restored by flashing back to AOKP. It could be a glitch in this release.

My GPS did not work,. Redownload ROM and gapps, full wipe per OP and reinstall, works great.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] x10user2011:
Hey beerdroid! I remember you helped me out one time with an improper flash and im afraid im having that now again. I did the steps accordingly in order to flash update and it wouldnt go past the kernel splash image. now that i restored my backup it wouldnt go past the boot animation after like 5 mins already.. what do i do? DO i have to wipe data again after flashing the rom?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] grubby0:
You are in it. Read the OP.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] x10user2011:
does anyone have issues getting past the underwear image after flashing the new update? I followed the correct wiping procedures and this isnt a dirty flash :\
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
what steps did you perform to flash the update?

Boot into recovery, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, reboot your phone. see if that gets you setup
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] x10user2011:
I boot into recov, made a backup, then factory reset, then cache, then dalvik, then system, then flash rom and gapps. reboot. ok i will try that

---------- Post added at 09:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:45 AM ----------

no success :\ I gave it a few minutes to see if it will get past the first kernel image into the boot animation but it didnt even do that... now im in recov, what should I do? Do i need to wipe internal?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
in this case i would either try restoring the backup or download the rom again, wipe and reflash
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] x10user2011:
I tried wiping everything to restore my backup and even my backup wont get through the splash image :\

do you think wiping internal is necessary? cause last time u helped me get through this same situation you told me to do that cause it might have caught onto something not literally

fixed it. I had to format data (internal) and wipe everything after flashing (except system) and it booted into the swagger boot animation instantly. as a matter of waiting for the set up now.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SpasilliumNexus:
GPS works fine here and has always worked with every update Task puts out. I'm starting to think people aren't really fully wiping their phones and/or not knowing the difference between a dirty and clean flash.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] arfarf2:
Thanks! The rabbit hole goes a little deeper tho, since resetting didn't really remove the button, but caused my phone to reboot a little later, and then the button was gone - so net: score. :)

Also lockscreen ribbon went a little wonkey, shows 5 buttons configured, but only shows torch when locked.

Rest is fantastico!! Thanks, Task!

Oh btw...Haha.

Forgot to mention, I flashed new Rom and persistence definitely works... Google now was showing Galena, Colorado instead of my location and couldn't figure out why, until I had the epiphany. :)

I was like... Colorado, wtf... ;)

-- nice story, bro

Torque not connecting to Bluetooth OBD2

Hi All,

I purchase a Bluetooth OBD2 scanner however it does connect to Torque. My phone is able to connect from the setting menu however from the app it doesn't connect.

On the Torque app there is a setting for people running CM or AOKP.

Force BT connection type:

*Off Default

*Force Encrypted Connections

*Force Unencrypted Connectiona

Is this ROM bluetooth Encrypted or not?

I tired it on my Nexus 7 with PA 3.1 Rom and it works perfectly.

Or do I need to change my bluetooth driver?

Phone Info:

S3 - i747m

April 26 2013 built

if you need any more info please let me know.

I will take any help I can get..
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RonG21:
Will look yet again.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Persistence is part of the ROM flash. It automatically works if you have the settings checked in the installer settings. Those are also already checked on by default.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
No info needed. Yes it works on this ROM, my kernel, CM kernel, and ktoonsez's kernel just fine and as it should. It's certain dongles that are giving people issues.

P.S- Just because you have it working on another device doesn't mean anything. I mean after all, they are different devices. ;)

Truth to going to back to stock before flashing AOKP

To what extent does going back to stock, then flashing task's latest ROM help eliminate any dangling issues? When playing my audio through bluetooth, the music skips more than a 7 year old girl playing hopscotch on a warm spring day. I'm interested to know whether going to back to stock and then flashing is worth my time. (I've experienced the skipping on every release since 4/1/13). Thoughts?

I'm having an unusual problem with my phone running this rom. When i'm browsing the web i'll go down the page then it will randomly pop back to the top, or when i'm on the chive i'll view an image then it will randomly go back to the previous image. Weird thing is that if I tap the screen with my finger it will go back again, then randomly keep doing it.

Restored to 4.23. Immediately got a location fix in maps.

I'm curious too about how this works
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Galaen:
I am not sure if this is the problem, but I use Faster Fix from the market to set my GPS region. When I started the app, I noticed that it was reporting to a different server than it used to. I don't remember the name. At any rate, when I switched to the proper servers in my region, it locks in the satellites extremely fast. I know it isn't a source fix and adjusting things like this with 3rd party apps is not supported, but it has never failed me and maybe it will help people get by.

Couple quick questions:

Is the phone supposed to unlock when I use the vib/ring toggle or any of the sound toggles? It didn't before, but it does since I've moved to 4.23 and now 4.26

Also, I know you say update google search in the play store to fix the force close problems, but mine says it's the newest version, and I'm still having the problem whenever I try to search anything, by voice or text. Is there something I'm missing?

Note - I did full wipe when I updated to 4.26.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
You are difintely missing something. I posted and said for all of you guys to redownload and flash the gapps package in the OP and then update it in the play store. That was posted here and in the ROM thread. You need tondo that. It works just fine and as it should.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] goobs408:
10.5 hours almost no use. An hour and half of screen on time. Now im at 10%. Why is it draining so fast? Turned off data for 4 hours, yet it still drains. No rogue app, anything. Before I could have 3 hours of screen on time and the same usage.

The thing goes down a percent almost every time I turn the screen on!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Do you think that we are magicians or something? How are we supposed to know why your battery is draining fast? You need to provide the proper information and you also need to find out for yourself what app is doing this.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] goobs408:
Ya... Trying to get a log cat via tapatalk is nearly impossible.

And it seems as if the problems was when the phone switches to 3g, it drains faster that 4g.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
1.) Log cats aren't going to help you figure out your battery drain.

2.) Logcats are very simple to aquire. Just read the OP of this thread.

3.) For future reference. Please wait until you have the appropriate information to post for troubleshooting any issues that you may be having. Without that info there is nothing that can be done for you here.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] goobs408:
All you *****ed about before was getting you a log cat...?!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
I never said anything to you about a logcat. You need to actually read posts before responding to them. I told you to post with the appropriate information. Your post was the same context as saying "My phone is doing stuff. Why is this stuff happening???" Do you really think that we can help you with that? Not at all dude. Drop the attitude and refrain from posting here if you cant. I never *****ed about anything. That was only your interpretation. I can't help you with that.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] elliott44k:
Yeah, about the lockscreen toggle issue as well?

I installed the new gapps posted and looked for it in the play store, unless you changed the gapps since 4.23, but I'll redownload, reflash and try again.

Anyone having crackling notifications?

I've been running the 28 ROM for a few days, flashed ktoonsez kernel yesterday, and today I'm getting crackling speakers with notifications. The volume is very low, so it isn't actually distorting. If I go into the sounds setting and select a new notification sound everything is fine...then a couple notifications later, it starts crackling again.

I'm sure it is simply coincidental that I flashed the kernel. Anyone else having this?

I flashed this rom did everything exactly as instructed, data works, no force closes, loving it but sometimes I can not make calls. It's weird.
