Voice Search Workaround?

To those having issues with 7/23 Voice Search not working (Stuck at initializing), mine started working after making a test phone call. Nothing I did beforehand helped. Let us know if that is the actual workaround.

edit: Apparently this does not hold through a reboot. Make another call :)

Yay?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Elysium1215:
Just confirmed this over on the RootzWiki thread; this workaround does work, as soon as I made a test call Voice Search started working.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Elysium1215:
Just flashed CVPCS's unofficial build, and it doesn't seem like there's a huge change. The camera was working better for me but still no video. I installed the TMo gallery apk and now everything is working (but people had gotten that to work on the 7/23 build too). Voice Search worked out of the box this time but Netflix still doesn't work and YouTube plays but has a few issues (flickering screen until you pause and play again as well as flickering at the top of the video while playing).

I'm keeping it because my camera is working now but if you camera was working on the older build I don't see a huge reason to switch.

Edit: Also no MMS as he said on his G+ page; curiously it was working for me in the old build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jdhas:
Does the video camera work when you pull the Gallery2.apk from here? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1778217

EDIT: Coming from dhacker's 7/23, I wiped Dalvik and flashed cvpcs's 7/24. Video recording worked fine out of the box, though playback required MX Video (playback froze in the CM gallery app).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hilbe:
FYI, a reboot sets you back to unable to use Voice Search. Made a voice call. It started working 15 to 30 minutes after that....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Elysium1215:
Yes but video playback using the gallery video player worked for me as well. Have you had similar issues to mine with YouTube as well?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jdhas:
I'll try the TMO apk and see if it's any better.

EDIT: Confirming that the TMo Gallery2.apk allows playback of recorded video in the Gallery app.

Just tried to watch a YouTube video. As soon as I twisted the screen into landscape, the phone rebooted straight into the CM9 screen.

Tested landscape in YouTube again -- same result. Going wipe data for the app, then uninstall and reinstall (I know it's redundant -- don't mess with my OCD).

EDIT: Fortunately, I hardly ever watch YouTube, so this is no biggie. If I need to watch something there, I can either wait until I have a computer, or try the mobile site in Chrome.

EDIT 2 - Egads! Even watching a YouTube video in landscape in Chrome causes the phone to do a hot reboot.

FINAL EDIT: To be clear, none of this is meant to be *****ing or complaining. I know this is a pre-alpha rom. Many, MANY thanks to cvpcs for all of his awesome work on this. I'm just pointing out bugs that I've found to aid in development and, hopefully, eliminate future post spam from others.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PJnc284:
Youtube works fine here in landscape on the 7-23 build. The audio controls are off though. You have to pause the video, adjust the volume slider and then play the video.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Elysium1215:
Yep, I just tried it again and I had the same result. I went in and cleared data for the app then disabled and re-enabled it (does this even do anything?) and now it doesn't crash the phone but switching to landscape causes the image to freeze. The audio still works and changing the audio while playing works as well.

Edit: Annnnd another video forced it to reboot (starting at CM boot screen), looks like YouTube is still broken, maybe I'll switch back to 7/23

IMO's test kernal:

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/30247-teaser-for-imoseyon-lean-kernel/page__st__70__p__839236#entry839236

maybe it will help with some issues?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] chakra:
Where is this T-Mo apk? I cant find it, do you have a linky?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Elysium1215:
Download this: http://db.tt/qnpeAJO7 and copy it to your internal phone memory

Using Root Explorer or something similar, find the apk on your phone and copy it

Navigate to system\app using Root Explorer, mount R/W (at the top) and find GalleryGoogle.apk and rename it to GalleryGoogle.bak

Paste Gallery2.apk into system\app and rename it to GalleryGoogle.apk

Press on this newly renamed apk and install it, then reboot

Test to see if it's working, I can't guarantee full functionality

Edit: thanks to jdhas for the direct download of Gallery2.apk
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jdhas:
For ****s and giggles, here's a direct link for the lazy.

What GAPPs package are you guys using? I install CVPS's Unofficial today but he did not include a link for GAPPs so i installed the 07212012 package from Dhacker.

I noticed Google Now/Voice Search does not work (shows as app not installed).

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ahodson1985:
Had CM10 installed since it came out on here and it was amazingly smooth! Great job everyone involved :) Had to switch back because for some unknown reason, data stopped working. I had the same problem with my Galaxy Nexus the one or two days before I returned it for being a battery hog. Installed a custom rom, and data started off blazing fast, then dropped to evdo speeds, then completely vanished. Any idea what causes this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Elysium1215:
When you flash CM10 don't touch the mobile network settings at all, stay away from that tab in settings altogether. Don't use toggles either. You should be able to reflash CM10 with a data wipe to get it working again
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] chakra:
has anyone been able to get cm10 to recognize the external sd card?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] chakra:
I thought I did, oh well I will try again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Travisimo:
I've been running 7/23 most of the day now and I've noticed something regarding data connectivity:

4G LTE is working great. As long as I'm in a 4G coverage area, it stays on 4G, speed tests are great.

However, when going to a margina LTEl area or an area with only 3G, things are not good. First of all, on stock Touchwiz (before installing cm10), the phone would very quickly change between 4G/3G. However, on this rom, it's more like my Galaxy Nexus where sometimes it doesn't know when to switch or it'll show gray bars with no data. Finally, it'll switch to 3G but that's when things get very erratic. The signal will bounce around from -100 all the to -200 or even -240. I didn't even know the signal could get that bad (never seen those numbers before). But then it'll jump back to around -105 and show a bar or two of 3G. So I think something is borked with the 3G or perhaps the authentication for the network.

Has anyone else seen signal numbers in the -200 to -250 range while on 3G? It's got to be an error in reporting, I would think. I went into the Phone Info app and checked the prl and it is properly set to LTE/CDMA. I still have to wonder if it's connecting incorrectly on 3G though. Like I said, 4G LTE is perfectly fine.... it'll only when I went out today and was in areas of marginal 4G coverage or just 3G coverage.

I sure hope they nail this down because I don't think this could be my DD with data wonky like this. On stock, I was so happy to get rid of those pesky data issues from my GNex. I was getting a good 3G signal in areas that my Gnex did not. But on cm10, something is definitely not right with either the data handoff, or just 3G connectivity in general...But So far, I have not lost my IMEI but I nervously check every once in a while! LOL
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wera750:
I agree completely. Just like my gnex.

3g definitely has issues imo. 4g is rock solid and handoff is very lacking. But for it to be alpha it's sweet as hell! Dhacker has done an awesome job!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] luke1987:
Also having 3g issues. Same as previously described (non consistent signal reception, weaker than expected) . 7/22 and 7/23 builds of dhackers cm10...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] :
OK. I have a T-Mobile variant of the t999 and I have everything working fine. I don't want to brag but I'm deff an advanced user and help noobs with bugs and such. However. My friend has the Verizon variant and he wanted a custom rom for the first time. So we rooted his phone, installed a cwm and put beans rom on it. He liked it a lot and stuck with it for a week or two. But after seeing my phone he wants cm9 mostly cause it supports themes right in settings. We followed the OP and got it installed and the cm9 rom works great and he's getting benchmarks in the 5000-5400 range. The only thing I find odd is the recovery. This could be because I'm used to the T-Mobile development or because this a real issue that needs to be addressed. So someone if you could please let me know if this is an issue.

His cwm recovery has a grey background and every time he reboots his phone it goes into recovery twice then finally reboots.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JetBlue:
It reboots into recovery twice because of the locked bootloader that we had to use the Kexec recovery to install roms like CM and AOKP.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] :
So this is normal?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JetBlue:
Yup, perfectly normal until we crack the bootloader or find another way so just tell him it's normal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jdubau55:
Agreed. When I am at work where 4G comes in and out due to multiple levels of structure I set my phone to just 3G and the battery life is not good. It seems like 3G just is in and out all over the place.

When I was at home all day on Sunday, I had 4G solid connection and was getting GREAT battery life. I was on 4G and was getting like 5 hours per every 10%. Granted I wasn't using my phone much, but I still felt like it was solid standby battery life.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nsmal24:
For those who can't/won't find the Gallery.apk from TMO, dhacker updated his thread and said that it was unnecessary. The one is his ROM works fine, it just gets replaced by the one in gapps. Copy it out of /system/app just like with the TMO ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jdhas:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] burkett375:
Where did you find this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] juancaperez2000:
after CM10 installation i can not conect my phone to my computer, the phone recognize that is plug it but nothing happend on my computer, it is supposed to be on this way, or there a some way to fix this, thank you
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] burkett375:
I had the same problem, had to fire up the SDK and upgrade to the latest google drivers
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Travisimo:
Any fixes in this? Can you flash a new gapps without updating the cm10 rom as well?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] juancaperez2000:
so thats all that i need to do update google APls and the should start to work properly?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Kamokazi:
Yep that will work. Recovery is the same.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Marcismo55:
I've had nothing but FC's when I didn't wipe when flashing a GAPPs package. I suggest backing up all your data, factory reset/data wipe, flashing GAPPS, and then restoring your data. It is not necessary to update the ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Travisimo:
Thanks, sounds like the best route to go. However, unless there's a specific fix in the new gapps, then I'll likely just stick to the one I'm using. Usually, aren't versions of a rom built with a specific version of gapps as well? So this new version of gapps could possibly cause problems? Or is it the same thing as just updating the google apps from the play store with the current gapps we have now?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Marcismo55:
Not cause any problems that I know of. I flashed DHackers 07212012 GAPPS and noticed there was no Google Now so I wiped and flashed the 07152012 GAPPS in the OP of this thread and Google Now is working. No issues that I have noticed and I even restored data. :eek:

The only reason Devs keep GAPPS separate is by Google's request for AOSP development. Also, some people consider some apps to be bloat while others don't. It give you a choice to pick and choose what you want. Sorry if you already knew all that!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] burkett375:
Didn't have to update the APIs, just the google driver that came with it...check to make sure you have the latest samsung driver, too
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] juancaperez2000:
ok got you, the problem that i will have is that i have mac, so no google driver for mac :(

Provide more info. Are you in an app or just your home screen? And if you are in an app what were you doing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] juancaperez2000:
it hapend with spotify and pandora, inside the app and also at the home screen, im using phone speaker, and volume bar on the screen move to the sides but volume still really loud
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PJnc284:
Pause the app, adjust the volume and then hit play again. This seemed to work with youtube and scanner radio on the 7/23 build. Doesn't really help if you're in a call though.

CM10:some issues soft keys no light, mms not working, built 24
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] revolt1:
what about the haptic feedback and YouTube
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] juancaperez2000:
Not sure about haptic but just played a youtube video
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bwhite757:
I can deal with all the little quirks, but losing data makes it a deal breaker. I drive roughly 250 miles a day and the constant handoffs from 4g/3g always breaks data and I have to toggle airplane mode on/off to get data back. I love CM10 so much that I've gone back to my GNex for now until data issues are resolved on the SGS3. With as fast as things are coming along I'm sure it won't be too long before it's fixed. Definitely missing the battery life of the SGS3, but the GNex is stable right now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kameleongt:
Same issues lights need to test MMS. Not sure what's been updated but haptic is wonky MMS worked on initial boot after restart I lost about settings "phone #" and "min". No differences between this and last build thus far. Will keep thread updated with any findings
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] juancaperez2000:
so based on your personal experience which rom is more stable CM9 or CM10,
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kameleongt:
I haven't tried cm9, only stock unbloated, aokp & this. Stock unbloated is working best for me with my device. I'll will be switching back for now I use MMS a lot and can't live without. If I do a clean flash I noticed MMS worked but had to restart for backup of apps. Once I did that it changed the ROM. I wonder what changes to make MMS stop working after first restart.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] juancaperez2000:
So aokp ics is at this moment more stable for u, ill try it tomorrow
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] chakra:
No he said he tried three, stock nbloated......aokp......cm10..... And stock un bloated works bets.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kameleongt:
This is correct. I went onto synergy now with some theme installed no issues so I'll stick with them. Cm10 is great but needs some work still.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] suzook:
Soft keys fix.....flip auto brightness on/off....they will then be on whenever screen is on....this needs to be done after a reboot. MMS receive works fine....no go on sends after initial reboot.

Dirty wipe ok, or should we fully wipe for this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hilbe:
Dirty wiped here. I'm good. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Travisimo:
The gapps here is an older version though, right? Should we use the newer version and just do the gallery swap to fix the camera? Or should we use this older version with the gallery taken out? In other words, the 715 gapps without gallery is still quite a bit older than the 726 gapps, right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bwhite757:
Any data improvement with 7-26 build?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kameleongt:
This will be my 4th flash within 24hrs. Haha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hilbe:
Can someone tell me the issues you're having with the camera? I've been using goo's gapp all along and never had any issues with my camera.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Travisimo:
Just dirty flashed cm10 726 with the gapps 726. Seems ok so far (just booted). Camera is working, but I'm not sure if that's because I had already replaced the gallery2.apk from the last build or because the new rom and gapps gallery is working (everything seems the same).

I'm in a strong 4G area right now, so I'm curious to see if there are any improvements to the erratic 3G behavior I had on the older builds. However, there was no mention of any fixes in this build, so probably not.

My phone number is still not showing up in the about/status section. I thought I read there was a fix for that? Anyone?

---------- Post added at 08:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:54 AM ----------

As I understand it,

In previous builds, the cm10 gallery app was overwritten by the gapps gallery, which was not functioning properly (force closes, 3mp instead of 8mp, no video recording, etc). At first, we were directed to the T-Mo preview build and grabbed the gallery apk from there to use. But then all we really had to do was grab the gallery apk from the cm10 rom itself and put it back in. Apparently, the latest gapps gallery is working now? Whatever the case, there's a working camera now... stills and videos both work. yay

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rkirmeier:
Sorry if this has been asked/answered but I didn't see it...

If I flash the CWM recovery with Kexec support then flash CM10 and decide I want to go back can I keep the CWM w/Kexec recovery or do I need to flash the standard recovery? I know it's only one additional small step but I could see going back and forth as CM10/AOKP progress...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hilbe:
7/26 build has no new fixes for RIL, this just includes the latest CM10 with theme chooser.
