Been running CR7 since the new update! Everything is nice but just doesn't seem as smooth as 6.2 and my battery life is no where near what it was on 6.2 I will keep monitoring it. It seemed like my 6.2 battery just kept getting better and better so hoping this will to.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] manatti:
Yes. I use home2shortcut it's free and easy to setup. Just make sure on s voice to turn it on and off before install. Only way I got it to work. When in the app pick voice search as the application, then your home launcher, then make home2shortcut the default app when you hit close. Works great been using it for almost 6 months.

OK... GPS and Google maps wake up on their own on a clean install constantly, causing short wakelocks (happened all night). Anyone else seen this or know of a fix?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Digur:
Hi Scott,

First off, LOVE your ROM. It is amazingly beautiful.

One question/request: I know other ROMs (liquidsmooth is the primary example) have the ability to re-map the hardware keys to custom functions (e.g., holding back to kill, holding home on lockscreen to initiate flashlight, holding menu on lockscreen to quick-launch camera, etc). I have tried a few apps on the marketplace but have not found any with the type of flexibility I am looking for here. Is there any way this could be ported/added to CleanROM?

Thank you!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hypnosis4U2NV:
Adding any type of modifications goes against what CleanRom stands for. The main reason why this ROM is popular and pretty much bug free is because it's as close to stock as can be.

Maps>settings>location settings> uncheck 'report from this device'... That should tame the wake locks. If Google now is active, maps will almost always show as causing some wake locks; but with device reporting turned off, it will help out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Digur:
To be clear, i'm asking him (as the developer) if it is possible and if he has any ideas how. I am not asking for a new release of CleanROM and I'm well aware of the ROM's intent.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jpmaniac87:
Thank you! I'll give it a shot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dividebyzero:
as far as i can tell, it turns off the media scanner. i'm not sure how it works or how well it works but it was recommended awhile back. I think on this thread. My media scanner doesn't seem to be running now and the battery drain is a lot less at least for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Kelton Rivas:
Anyone else having an issue with their front facing camera? Mine is all fuzzy.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] motocrossmann:
Does flashing Apex or Nova launcher noticeably improve performance over Touchwiz? I've used them in the past by installing them from the Play Store, but if I flash it as part of CleanROM, does it help performance in a significant way?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] faber78:
Skimmed thread, any overall across the board bugs?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Kelton Rivas:
Personally, I use Nova and it is moderately quicker. Though, I've also set the animations to speed of light. Most people would say that launchers are for cosmetic purposes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] neonlazer:

This mod definatley makes the speaker louder. I picked 100 and had to go back to 50 because it was tooooo loud!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] STLRamsFan1k:
Yea you're definitely right, played around with 100 before doing back to 50. Think I've gotten so used to the sound increase that I've completely forgotten what stock sound was like. :P
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] neyenlives:
That's only one of several that needs removed. Check out the TK Mod thread. It automates it for you via Aroma. Personally I run this rom, the latest KT747 Kernel, TK Mod and then run a custom Abyssplug/Row undervolted (screen on) profile, and for screen off it changes to Koontservative/Noop with a max cpu speed of 486Mhz.

I am a very heavy user 8-11Gb data per month without wifi and no music streaming and still get around 10-12 hours of battery life. I keep a second standard Samsung battery in a desktop charger. I start the day with a fresh one and before leaving to go home swap out for a fresh battery. Then around midnight at bed time I plug it in overnight, rinse repeat.

I've been putting Roms on my phone for a long time since I had my droid x. And I have never tried this ROM I'm not sure why but I finally did and wow am I impressed. I've had good and bad expierences and even with the good ones there was always one or two things that didn't work or that just were not right. But I've been on this for 3 days and cannot find anything! Thank you to all involved.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott:
Yeah, I was past deadline and way over budget on this one so I had to cut corners

My head hurts.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droopydroors:
Really cool launcher. Thanks for the heads up on that one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott:
Your welcome!

And with all the corners I cut I still did pretty good, huh!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott:
People who think I cut corners flash this zip...

It reverts some of the file system and caching I put on the device.

The caching can be working in reverse for some (Diminishing Returns)

This should restore the corners!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott:
I dont see any real issues other than the ones caused by me cutting corners to get the ROM out.

Media Scanner is an ongoing android issue. Always has, always will. Just put a file called "nomedia" in all of your non media folders and it will not scan them thus greatly cutting its wake time.

Maps and Locations. There are various things you can do.. I never have that issue... I dont use the NSA TRACKER, I mean Google Now. So I think that is a huge battery drainer.

Any other issues?

I only skimmed the last couple pages and forgot that I cut corners to get the ROM out...

on a device I haven't used in 6 months...

and continue to develop and support..

for... wait for it...

YOU the users of the ROM!

And ya know, the budget was way to low on this one... I HAD to cut corners damn it Dont blame me, blame the project manager! ;)

Anyways...

Unfortunately we always have a tendency to focus on negative instead of the positive, You should focus on the thousands of positive posts instead of the rantings of one.

When I turn on the screen (not unlock) I can see the GPS icon polling..

Other than the obvious (some widget) what could it be?

the rom has no widgets on default and I have no added any..

I've put in wakelock detector to see if that will show me anything..

But I seem to have a massive amount of wake time.. for seemingly no reason..

I always thought that when you take something bulky and square, and chop off the corners to round it out more, it rolls a lot smoother. You learn something new every day, I guess...

Phone is still not charging like it did on 6R2. Tried running the battery down to almost zero and charging full overnight, but that didn't help. Just flashed the MB1 rpm and modem to see if that does anything.

Greatly appreciated. Thanks.

When I launch the Multi Window Manager, I get prompted to update the FlashBarService.apk file.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott:
The patch I did removes some hardcore lowlevel tweaks that I use on some more sluggish phones like the S4.

The initial Version 7.0 pre-patch uses extensive tweaking of the dalvik machine cache and the file system. How that works with the O/S can POSSIBLY cause issues for a minute some but for the most part it should be butter for everyone.

More specifically the 7.0 Non Patch tweaks a lot of cache so it stores more data in memory (to be recalled quicker and also save time writing it to nand memory (smart, heh)). This needless to say causes more memory to be used. Its natural and expected (even desired)!

Then second part that i put in was some Qualcomm hardware specific patches that I researched on few tech sites. They are unique to Qualcomm processors and help improve performance.

I mixed both tweaks together... and walla...

CleanROM Seven!

The patch I posted removes the hard core caching and qualcomm kernel level tweaks as they are / were "somewhat" untested on THIS model phone. But have worked wonders on other model Samsung phones..

Sop there are a plethor of variables induced in Seven that may cause SOME people to acutally decrease performance due to diminish retuns on the caching. In otherwords,. the phone is not as smooth becuase they hava a **** ton of apps running and are not closing them out properly. Thats the only time I could see the caching slowing things down. Becuase you whats called a cache hit ratio... The more crap running the greater chance the hit ratio will be a miss and could theortically slow it down a micro second.

So... Does that explain it

After a clean install, I had some of the common issues with battery drain and slow charging. After settling, the phone charges as normal. I also took the advice of some on this thread to install Rescan Media Root and used TiBu to freeze some culprits like weather stuff.
