Just here to confirm that my photos are all missing from internal storage after flashing the 08/14 build as well. I don't store music on the phone but I'd imagine if I did it would be gone too.

Luckily I didn't have any important pictures on there that are now lost.

Is there anyway I can get the stock AccuWeather widget to work on CM10? It's a really nice widget!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Looks like it might be an issue with ROM Manager, try and delete it... I did it myself, removed ROM manager and still can't see things in gallery or in my music player, but when I go through Root Explorer I can see them but I can't play music until I move it to external, if I try to play the music from root explorer it says that the file is not supported

I have no idea about this besides that it is a known issue with having a borked recovery some how, or you have downloaded the wrong rom or GAPPS... post where you got the links (I hope they are not from my post lol)

No it's a stock TW widget and needs TW framework to work... Try searching weather widget in the market and pick one out there are some alternatives out there, I agree though the TW one is nice.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] txnr70:
Try removing the .nomedia file in the root of your /sdcard and see if that helps.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
I read the thread and nothing helps... I just moved the files I needed to my external.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Davidion:
The files I have is the following

CWM: 5.847 touch from toolkit

CM10 8/14 - from official thread link

Gapp: I believe I got this from the second post in the official cm10 thread in original dev forum.

I thought it may have had something to do with how the phone uses symlinks for the sdcard directory? Maybe? Total guess on my part.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] SeanFloyd:
LED Notifications

Has anyone got this to work properly with texts?

If I use it with the stock msg app, I cannot change the color of the light.

If I use it with GOSMS, I can change the color but the light turns off after about 5 seconds.

I have messed around with the settings, including adding custom values for GOSMS but this just disabled the LED altogether.

Anyone?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Only things I have read were that the recovery was borked, and that rom they downloaded wasn't proper for the phone. Our phone is set up to flash only roms that have the same partition setup, I think. An error 7 gets thrown up, but it's weird that you can nand back and forth but no Cm/14... try CM15 or the latest AOKP, I find them more stable to be honest lol, I don't know why but Euroskanks build is much better then Cyanogens, I believe Euro tests his build before posting, and Cyan just puts them out quickly. I have read that we are dangerously close to nightlies instead of previews... :)

ALSO: read you posted this

-Every once in a while attempting to boot the only thing that will show on the screen is a quick flash of an empty battery icon (no, the battery isn't drained). This started happening when I tried a couple of times to flash CM10 8/10 onto my phone with an older CWM, I believe.

I have seen this after a random reboot, it wouldn't boot up and kept getting stuck on this until a battery pull. CM.14...

I can't help you with this one as I'm not particular to as what color I get. Just didn't want you to think you were being ignored hopefully some one will answer you.

You can give Light Flow a shot.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] txnr70:
Is full charge necessary before flashing?

I've heard some people say they charge their phone to 100% before flashing. Is this necessary and if so why? I've been doing it myself, but it is now becoming a pain.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] SeanFloyd:
You're the man, LightFlow did the trick.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Davidion:
It's official; I just tried to install the latest kang nightly and am getting the same error. This isn't a rom-specific issue; I'm suspecting that it has to do with the way symlinks are being made on the backend.

Something else to consider. I've noticed, while my phone was plugged in, that the files in a given directory shows up on root explorer and on file view on my computer is different. Some files that I deleted in root explorer is still visible on my computer, etc.

Is there any kind of widespread reports of symlink issues happening with the S3? I've been looking up and down and not finding anything.

Oh, and re: the empty battery icon/boot issue, you often can't boot into recovery as it'll give you the same error. I've found that a quick and painless way to get it back to recovery is to boot into download, CANCEL, then quickly hold up and home for recovery mode while the phone is rebooting from the download mode reset. Not sure how or why that works well, but it does.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dankydoo:
Camera Not Functioning

I posted this in the other thread, but I guess I'm supposed to do it here:

I've scoured this thread, so please don't tell me to search. I've seen a few people that are missing the camera, and they've been told it's now in the gallery. Well for me, it isn't. As a test, I downloaded Camera ICS from the market, and then Gallery has a camera icon in the top right. There is something missing for me. I've done a complete wipe, and it still doesn't show up. Does anyone have any ideas on this??
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Man that is bizarre I have no idea, maybe try to move it to external or vice versa... I don't know much about symlink errors, but within searching around people are reporting how you enter recovery might have something to do with it, how the rom is transferred little things all over the place... I honestly don't know. I'll keep searching and report little things I find.

What was the way you installed the rom? Can probably just reinstall the rom...

glad it worked out for you.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dankydoo:
Camera Missing

I used CWM and did a wipe of system/data/dalvik.

I've tried twice, I'll try again. It's just the strangest thing. It's as if the system doesn't think it has a camera. but instagram, and other camera apps work. As soon as I install Camera ICS and say...UCam, when I'm in Galerry and press the camera icon, it gives me that screen asking me which app to use and if I only want it "just this time" or "all the time".

It's weird, is their any data I'm missing when I wipe?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
You can wipe data... or isntall this http://dl.dropbox.com/u/92214305/Gallery2.apk see if that works...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dankydoo:
Okay, tried that and it says "a matching package with a different signature already exists"

I then tried to use titanium to force uninstall and it says "no matching apk found"

So I went back into clockwork and did a wipe data/factory reset, then wiped cache. Then reflashed, and still the same thing.

I'm wondering why my apps are still there...isn't that the point of "factory reset" ? You think this has something to do with it?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Davidion:
Cool, thank you. i'll keep an eye out as well...this is really frustrating as I basically can't upgrade anymore.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
i wipe those and I am rebuilding from the setup screen there is something going on with your wipes.

I'd be very frustrated too lol, I am cause I'm not figuring the issue out lol, but try changing to TWRP. I'm on that and its working flawlessly for me external and internal.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Noticed a little difference between ondemand and performance with scrolling as well. I'm certain it'll all be smoothed out as soon Qualcomm releases the rest of the source, after that it'll be legit 60 fps, I'm happy enough with the way it is now though.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dankydoo:
Sorry, was in a hurry, my user apps weren't there it was my google apps from me installing the JB Gapps. So I didn't a completely fresh install and still nothing. This is weird. Here's the kicker, I just tried the AOKP nightly, and it's there.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] osho741:
if and when u try twrp make sure you make a backup before doing any wipes or anything because i think twrp handles backup files differently than cwm does. otherwise you could try reflashing the cwm from the cwm app.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Yes twrp does backups differently but why backup a messed up ROM with no camera? Haha, restore your old stable and then install twrp and then recover.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] osho741:
i wasnt sure what he all had backed up, thats why I said that.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
I get ya, just didn't want him to backup something pointless. Wanted to make sure he has something he wants. Good point to make sure he backs something up so he wont have to odin or something.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] MaPuO_007:
Hello! I'm new here. I finally decided to return to smartphone scene :) after a long LONG time :) so I bought S3 2 days ago, its my first android and first touchscreen phone :) so right away I decided to jump into installing/changing things. Wanted to try cm first but after 8/14 release decided to go with cm10. I did the root, put clockwork recovery. Tried to install cm10 it didn't work, kept giving me an error during installation, it was clockwork issue, I used version 5.5 at first but then downloaded 5.8 and installation went perfectly. It works great so far, thank you for your work! Have couple things though: so as everyone else I have slow internet now. Sometimes when I turn on the phone it asks me sim unlock code, I pressdismiss and eeverything works fine(about 1 out of 5 times asks the code). Can you make that huge panel on the right when using camera small as it was? And I don't see all those motion things you could set up in settings, are they gone? And maybe put the lock sign a bit higher so there would be down option as well? Can't think of anything else atm. Again, thanks for the great ROM.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ronin4740:
Default Lock Screen?

Any way to disable the default lock screen? I've changed mine to pattern and now I have to unlock it twice. Can't seem to find the option to disable in the menu... Would someone give me the path to the option to disable it please?

Thanks!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Welcome to the club

-slower internet is there for lots, unfortunate but it'll get sorted out as soon as they feel the need to.

-I've read once about the sim unlock code, after the person ignored it, they said it went away... hopefully that is your case as well.

-as for the camera, that is how Jelly Bean camera is, you can try alternatives from the market, but the stock camera that came with the phone does not work with this rom unfortunately.

-Yes the TouchWiz features are gone

-The lockscreen is as is for now, they might add some hacks to it in the future for that kinda request... You should however be able to go into settings and select lock screen at the bottom I believe there is an option for shortcuts...

I think I got all your questions, feel free to search the main thread for any questions you have in the future and ask here as I will do my best to help out.

I've seen numerous questions about this and yet to see a solution.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Davidion:
Appreciate the tips. I tried flashing through TWRP and guess what, failure! I did backup before hand so I'm back at my old touchwiz rom.

I'm pretty sure there's just something wrong with the way symlinks are handled in the background on my phone at this point. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be much of a solution anywhere, sigh.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] rufolangus:
So I've been using the latest build since it came out very little bugs. I just ran into one where i randomly went into the gallery app and nothing shows up... cleared app data and still nothing showing up. The files are there because i can see them using root explorer. Can anyone help?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] RollerCoasting:
It's an issue with ROM Manager, it puts a .nomedia file on the root of the storage which stops music and files from showing up anywhere. I'm using Euroskank's CM10 Kangs at the moment and it seems that even though I used SystemAppRemover to get rid of ROM Manager the issue still occurs. I'm honestly lost as to what to do.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
I don't think that is the issue at hand to be honest, I've removed the files .nomedia and rom manager, wiped caches, fixed permissions, and still got nothing. I think there might be more to it then that, I try to play something through root explorer when selecting from internal and it's a no go, says the file is not supported... Weird issue, and just speculation on my part...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] RollerCoasting:
Yeah, I did the same thing. It's pretty annoying, especially when you don't have an sd card to move your media to. Oh well, I'm trusting that Cyanogen will get it fixed in the next release.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] MaPuO_007:
Thanks for the reply. Couple more questions: I saw Sony bravia engine has been added to almost all ICS ROMs, can you add it here? Since its my first phone of that kind I have no idea what is normal battery life, it seems to die quickly on me, can you tell me normal time/screen time on full charge? And since I'm total noob, how do I put new version of cm10(when released) so all my settings/apps are intact?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
I don't even know what bravia engine is and don't I don't like it haha. No reason but I never tell what the difference in anything is after its baked into a rom... installing procedure over a rom is best to wipe cache and install and reflash gapps directly afterwards. My battery lasts up to 20 hours 28-30 if I don't charge it over night. I usually get about 3 ½ hours on screen time. I usually have WiFi if not very strong 4g so my radio is isn't always searching. Average is about 3-5 on screen time depending on how you use it. I mainly text call and email... search a little with the browser on news and then XDA here quite a bit and Facebook a couple times.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] MaPuO_007:
Bravia engine is for a camera, makes it better. Couple more things: when I go to the camera(photo)-settings-focus mode I can only switch between continuous and auto and only once, then switch arrow disappears and you need to close camera and open it again(did about 10 times always the same only can switch once and then 2 mins ago tried and it worked normal, many modes, can switch as many times as you want, don't know what's going on with this). When you go to settings-sounds-volumes there's link ringtone and notifications volumes if you uncheck it sepparate volume for notifications appears but when you press ok and reenter it disappears, only ringtone volume shows, you need to check and uncheck box again for it to appear. When I listen to music and do smth that pauses it for a bit when it continues its on different volume, I have to press volume button for it to become as it was, any solution for this? Also, with everything on, Wi-Fi, GPS, music etc. its on 6 hours with 4:40 screen time with 10% left, is it ok?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dankydoo:
I finally got this to work, it was the google apps package replacing gallery2.apk and wiping the camera!

I didn't even bother installing the gapps package as the playstore is already in there and you can just download the rest. Hope this helps someone.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] rufolangus:
Rom manager got an update today. It says it fixed the bug where it ads the .nomedia file. Installed. cleared gallery cache. No files showing up in the gallery app.

Edit: Just went back to my gallery and it was all there.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] RollerCoasting:
That's interesting, especially since it still doesn't work even though I completely removed ROM manager.

I went ahead and extracted ROM Manager from the ZIP and I'm going to see if it's truly just ROM Manager that's causing the issue or if it could also be other factors.

Flashing, brb.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ronin4740:
Is anyone else experiencing reboots in call with the latest nightly build?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] alexrobot:
No need to clear the gallery cache, instead, 'clear data' from the 'Media Scanner' process. Give the phone a minute to rescan music/pictures and you should see your files again. This fixed it right up for me!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Virtual Pariah:
Combining questions

Just moving the WiFi calling question into this thread.

Is there any build upcoming that will have the wifi calling feature activated?

I don't know if this is on the to/do list.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Its never been addressed by cyanogen. Or anyone else for that matter that has been working on these roms. There are substitutes though. Just search in the market.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ladyk74:
I was usually always browsing the forum, but I registered now as I want to provide feedback and I do have some questions. I'm currently on Paranoidandroid and I really love the paranoid settings like switching to phablet. I was on CM10 nightly only and had some force closes after playing around with torch. Since I can't post directly in the development threads I will just add it here.

Torch fix: When I first opened torch, high brightness did not work. Just using strobe frequency gave me the flickering LED. I moved the slider from strobe frequency all the way to the right. Uncheck High Brightness. Go to display light setting and use the brightest option. Go back to torch. If you turn it on now you have a steady LED light.

Asking for network pin issue: When this appeared I just dismissed it. If you take out the battery and simcard and then restart your phone it will be gone.

What I miss:

I did like the palm swipe for screenshot. Now I have to press my powerbutton to take one.

Missing 4G icon: Wow it took me forever to figure this out. I thought I had no 4G network connection. First of all, in Settings/Mobile Networks/Networkmode make sure you have LTE/GSM checked. By default its on GSM only. Apparently as posted on Cyanogenmod forum,

LTE = 4g icon

4g = H icon

3g = 3g icon

I ran a speedtest with speedtest.net app because I only had the H icon, I do have 4g speed. Kinda liked the 4G icon though, maybe that can be fixed.

What I want back and need help with::

1.I love Google now! But I do want my S-voice app back. Can I get this back/install it somehow?

2.I tried to reinstall Samsung Galaxy S3 ringtones/alarms etc with a package found here on xda:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1663591 but I don't have that path mentioned to place the files. Where would I place them when I'm on CM10/Paranoidandroid?

3. Anyway to get the lockscreen ripple effect back?

4. Someway to restore Palm swipe option ?

I know I can't have my cake and eat it too, but I would so appreciate your HELP with my 4 questions. Other then that love CM10/Paranoid Android. It runs fine and I had no other problems so far. My battery life is outstanding!!.Using as :fingers-crossed: Daily Driver.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Ok.. welcome and let me try my best.

LTE doesn't exist for T-Mobile so that is incorrect.

'"4G" = H Icon'" is pretty much correct.. 3G is when "4G" isn't active and is just idle.

1. I will look around and see if you can get S-Voice back but I haven't seen it yet, I'm sure it is possible though.

2./system/media/audio is where I remember them being, (I went back to stock build for stability and work)

3.Lock screen is probably something in the market... just search Galaxy s3 lock screen see what you find...

4.Palm Swipe is not available like most features of TouchWiz... Hold volume down and power button to take a screen shot though.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nicogetz:
I'm on the 8-20 nightly, and was wondering if anyone else lost several camera features coming from 8-18? Starting with the 8-14 update, i had an ISO option (with an 'auto (hjr)' setting I didn't understand) and an SCN setting called AVR or something... I installed the 8-20 nightly and experienced a vicious red screen flicker for the first time, a few random reboots, and noticed a said camera options were no longer present...

I'm not complaining, just curious if anyone else had a similar experience or if it's because I did a full wipe for 8-20 and not for 8-18 that I had the issues/ lost the settings ...? Any insight? Overall , the whole experience has been impressively smooth and I applaud the whole CM team for cooking up such a delight
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Any body want this updated? My next two days are 12-15 hour days which will put me at overtime by quite a bit, so I should be off most of next week, to do some extensive updates if it's worth my time.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] chrisram88:
What update Bro?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
No update. I was keeping this updated with common issues that should be addressed to keep the cm10 thread less cluttered, but that didn't work obviously. People still flood that thread with useless repeated questions.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
So with 10.1 would any one like me to change the what's working and not working list and update with each nightly for changes?

The camera restart is for when the infamous "cannot connect to camera" popup comes about. just use the apk to restart the camera. (I haven't tested but wcoast says it works great. https://www.dropbox.com/s/h1hiqp49xx2rhbo/Restart_Camera.apk?m

the svoice apk is just that svoice lol. It works great though, I don't like svoice but I know plenty of you miss it. So here it is. YOU NEED TO MANUALLY PUSH TO /SYSTEM/APP FOR IT TO WORK at least for me lol. https://www.dropbox.com/s/fphbu368bye10k4/voicetalk.apk?m

So many new CM10 threads popping up lately.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] net.lander:
I have t-mobile S3, and have couple of questions:

1. is hotspot WITH PASSWORD support working in CM10.x nightlies??

2. Can I swap internal and external memory of my phone with CM10.x???
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
Yes and yes.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] net.lander:
wonderful. Can you link solution to external internal swap on S3 CM10.x ?? I spend days googling and looking at xda. Seems there are two ways:

1. via vold.fstab. BUT I cannot find one that will work on my t-mobile S3 CM10.x.

2. via extsd2internalsd but it said it's only for touchwiz based rom.

Will be very grateful if some can give me a working linky???

Has there been any fix on the echoing while on speakerphone on the nightly builds? I'm running the 4/29 build, and that is the only issue I've encountered so far.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Not that I can say to be honest. I was on an aosp ROM last week and used speaker phone write a bit with no complaints, possible fix lower the speaker and if you're not up to date on the radio, upgrade it. The best advice I have unless someone else chimes in.

T-Mobile SGS III
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
I honestly thought that was fixed months ago. I don't use speakerphone, so can't test.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Demodokos:
Thanks for the quick response - I'm on the latest baseband, so I guess I'll live with it until some other advice or fix comes along.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
The lowering volume didnt do it? I was on cm10.1 for 3 hours last night and had a call while on speaker phone and they said they didnt hear anything like an echo or static. Call clarity wasnt the best, but still good and no real complaints. I dont know what else to tell ya bud.
