First time using a Samsung after being a longtime HTC user and this ROM alone has me sold.

Running super smooth and loving the customization.

Thank you for all your work!

Does updating the phone to 4.1.1 through PA cause any issues in the downloading of any apps? I'm curious because a few apps (for example instagram) aren't compatible with my device. But I am honestly not 100% sure if it's the ROM, or that it's really not compatible.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] peoples_flip:
I'm currently on the CyanogenMod 10 nightlies and I was wondering if it would be advantageous to jump on over to this newest version of PA?

Any suggestions or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] robamacaf:
I just installed the newest version and the first thing I did was test the new pop up when I get a text. I tried it with the device unlocked and also locked. I don't get a popup at all. If I do "Quick Reply" from the notificaitons I get the pop up but how do I get that pop up on screen the second I get message?

Flashed to AT&T Samsung GS3 and after setting everything up I have no data connection. Wifi works. Can make calls. shows 4G symbol on top of screen. Searched and found a couple of people who had same thing but different phones and said rebooting or turning off data and rebooting then re-enabling data corrected...tried that and still no data.. Does anyone know how to re-enable? TIA...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] expertzero1:
make sure you have the ATT LTE APN
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Oleschuldad:
I did check to see if the APN was there and ATT LTE was selected already, so I tried switching to the regular wap apn with no luck...was I supposed to flash a kernel along with the rom or was it part of it already? It looks like the settings are in the LTE APN already too so I shouldnt have to configure any settings should I?

Hi I'm also having problems with lte I'm on rogers and I usually get a pretty good signal. It seems like this ROM switches the APN automatically so I do t get lte any ideas ?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Oleschuldad:
Well, I dont know what I did, but for some reason it started working all off a sudden after changing the band once more back and forth and rebooting again..... :eek: The icon doesnt say LTE, just 4G now , but getting about 14mps down and 6.5mps up.....
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rAFTA!:
I tried it and still no go. What are your settings at if i may ask?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
4G is LTE on CM10. It's just on the stupid stock ROMs where they label things horribly wrong for the sake of marketing. (Example: Stock ROMs call HSDPA "4G", which is just H+. Maybe they should call it "fauxG" instead? lol)

CM10 ROMs don't ever say "LTE" up top, they'll say "4G" when you're getting LTE.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Oleschuldad:
which settings? You mean the APN settings??

No sir, sorry i forgot to quote the guy that I was talking to. Im having problems downloading apps from the Play Store
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ChrisG683:
Maybe this isn't exactly the right place to ask, but I figured I'd start here. I absolutely love this ROM, but I've been having a persistent issue with my running apps being closed after about 3-5 minutes pass. I don't recall ever having this issue on TouchWiz ROMs, but for some reason I get it all the time on this ROM, I have not tried AOKP or CM10.

The issue as I mentioned is pretty simple. If an app isn't in the foreground of my phone for about 3-5 minutes, it appears that it gets "cached" and closed. When I try to open it again, it is forced to redraw and reload instead of being instantly available. It is very reminiscent to how the HTC One X handles apps running in memory. I almost always have 900-1100 MB of RAM free, so I know it's definitely not a memory issue. I have also tried both the ktoonez and faux kernels with multiple governers, and both exhibit the same problems. I also just did a clean upgrade to PA 2.1 from the 1.x version, and I am having the same issue in both versions.

Is this a known problem, and/or is anyone else having this issue? If not, does anyone have any further debugging or investigation suggestions?

Thanks for the help guys, and I apologize again if this is the wrong place, I can move it elsewhere.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
What problems is this causing? That's how Android handles idle background tasks, no matter how much RAM you have. I could see this being an issue if, for example, Navigation was closing if you minimized it, or Music stopped playing, but I have never seen either of those things happen.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ChrisG683:
It's just generally a hassle to multitask now. The whole reason I switched to the S III from the HTC One X is because TouchWiz multitasked like a beast. I could have 20-30 apps running and nothing ever required a redraw. TouchWiz never gave me this problem. I'll explain the problems it has been causing me:

1) When downloading a ROM at the hotel, the download took a while, so when I minimized firefox, the download would continue. But after a few minutes Firefox would close and the download would freeze, then when I opened Firefox, it would re-initialize and load from cache, which would abort and restart my download. In order to get it to finish, I had to leave Firefox open and keep my phone's screen on the entire time.

2) I have a bunch of game guides loaded in my Firefox for my trip, and when I wanted to read them, instead of my tabs already loaded, it has to pull them from cache and reload, taking 10 seconds sometimes. Sometimes they would fail to load, or Firefox thought the sessiom crashed, so I would need to redownload them, except I am in Europe, so finding a free Wifi point was very rare.

3) When I lock my phone and come back to it later, the app I had open has to reload and redraw, very annoying, especially when using Google Maps for navigation frequently.

4) My Apex Launcher seems to have to reload and redraw when hitting the home button if I have been in an app for a while.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stickem601:
This issue is fixed to a point, the sound and video is now working, only problem now is the video flickers pretty badly from the bottom of the screen to just about mid-screen with a "MHL to HDMI" cable output.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
Might I suggest talking the the Firefox team about issues #1 and #2?

#3, not sure what to say, as I can't get Navigation to stay open. It instantly closes.

As for Apex, do you have the same issues with any other launchers?

Sounds like you've either got app incompatibility causing problems, or you've made a change to the OOM-Killer settings in Android somewhere. I've never had issues like you're describing on any AOSP-based ROM on my S3, and I've left apps open for days.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] imstill@g:
I am not experiencing that issue, I just ran through some test and to double check. I am loading a few games now to double check
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] swpreiy:
is there way to get video to play while doing other things with this rom, or will it come at a later point, or do i have to get an app to do that?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ChrisG683:
I wouldn't even know how to edit the OOM Killer :x. Do you have any more information on that?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] loudog3114:
While the lockscreen is scale-able, I cant get it to kick over to the tablet interface, which I really want so it will show my calendar and weather info with a pattern lock. It does not show that information in 'phone' mode with a pattern lock.

Have you tried changing the "Layout" tab in PA settings?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] loudog3114:
I dont see a layout tab for the locksreen, nor do I see anything that can be identified as the lock screen in the app list.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
As shown on the far right of this screenshot.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] radeon_x:
This isn't something that's mentioned a lot, but I completely agree and it's really what makes stock (well, heavily de-bloated) TW the only option on this phone for me.

From my observations, I'm not sure I'd put a specific time frame on the effect... but apps are constantly reloading/re-drawing when multi-tasking for me. They do so on any AOSP/AOKP 4.1 based ROM. In stock TW I can literally go an entire day with apps like Flipboard, the browser, gReader, etc. never closing in the background. It's really what makes having the 2GB of RAM in this phone worth it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] loudog3114:
This is for the lock screen specifically, which I cannot find listed under the applications list to edit the layout for.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
I'm not 100% on this one, but isn't the lockscreen a part of SystemUI?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jdhommert:
Outstanding ROM.

Only issues I have is it is saying my SD card is corrupt/fubar, and when I text a lot I get a warning saying you are sending a lot of messages, are you sure you want to send this message..for every single message....very annoying.

Haven't seen anyone with this rom mention those problems. I did see people mention that with other roms or ICS etc...and I'm not smart enough to know if i could apply those fixes to this phone, or fix it if something is messed up unless I have a how to....yes I'm useless but at least I searched first. :laugh:

If anyone has any advice LMK.

Thanks again, I have never been as happy with an electronic device as I am with this. The phone is just so instant with everything.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] robin48:
Zero issues so far. Nice and stable
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ChrisG683:
Very interesting, I didn't know that this was something that affects all AOSP ROMs.

I'm getting very inconsistent behavior with multitasking right now. On my 20+ hours of aiport time yesterday in Airplane mode, my Firefox did not once close itself and never required a redraw.

However when I turned airplane mode off and began resuming my normal usage, Firefox had closed within an hour. I don't know what to say, I'm very baffled at how tasks are being handled. Sometimes they are open for long periods of time, sometimes they don't even last 5 minutes.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] atmospher1c:
check to see if you have the same SD card issue with other ROMs, my SD card went FUBAR a few weeks ago. It wass till under warranty so I got a new one. I'd try a clean install (not a dirty) to fix the messaging issue.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] yokken:
What do you mean, different options? PA has per-app density, making it completely customizable based on the app you're using. You can choose to use the tablet or phone UI, and at pretty much any size you want. Nothing else offers this. So, to answer your question: no?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cuhrazy:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PuffinNugz:
On my SGS2, I used what would be equivalent to small tablet, but there were only 3 or 4 options, and no "phablet" mode. I'm still going back and forth with a couple on here, but will probably stick with small tablet.

Just having a little hiccup with lte.. I have the option selected, but won't connect.. just switches between 3G/HSPA+ and no connection.. any ideas/suggestions?

Thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] baconatorXVI:
It's been stated, but no big deal.

on stock Att software

4g=hdspa/H+

4g LTE= Real 4g LTE

On CM

H+=hsdpa

LTE= Real 4g LTE

Just a marketing ploy to make you think you're getting 4g.

on a side note,

I'm eager to find the time to try this Rom for the first time!!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] illCrizzee:
I realize that, but what I'm saying is that it never shows that I'm on 4G LTE.. it only has H+ and 3G. 3G is on most of the time, but I have LTE/3G/WCDMA toggled on. I'll get H+ sometimes but never LTE.. and the signal bars are grey most of the time when its toggled on.. but when WCDMA/3G is toggled on, the bars are blue and 3G is usually the band my phone chooses.. occasionally H+

(I don't know if it has anything to do with it, but I probably should've stated that I'm on Rogers Canada. I don't know if that has anything to do with it..)

Hope that's a better explanation..
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
www.rogers.com/coverage/

Are you even in an LTE area? The stock ROM was lying to you the whole time, if you got "4G" on the stock ROM, you were only getting HSPA.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bradtn:
Also you should note that HSPA is really 3.5G and my understanding of CM is that it will keep switching from 4G(HSPA 3.5G) to 3G icon almost in real time according to your connection speed

I am at my second s3 and in this one they did the mistake of not giving me a Lte SIM.

Now I am sure you probably do. I do get 4g (since yesterday which is really LTE) but my reception cut off often and takes like one min to come back if I enable the LTE TOGGLE.

The rom includes a kernel. You'll probably want to do a full wipe and should let the rom boot up fully then go back and flash the kernel afterwards. I personally haven't run into any issues with gmail but I think it comes down to the settings you have for it in pa preferences.
