Hey guys, so I re-installed Wallet 2 days ago finally but left my build.prop as the edited Nexus version. Well, not only did Wallet and my phone continue to work, but Bluetooth worked consistently too. I think some of these commits that have been merging are mostly for the Verizon GNex, and since there are so many differences between the GNex and our S3 that is what is breaking our nightly builds. Not sure what all everyone is having problems with because I don't follow the thread anymore, but if you are having issues try using the build.prop edit and seeing if your problem stabilizes.

I'm sure this has been discussed before but what's with the low speaker volumes on Google Voice ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] josh995:
Is this good enough for daily use?

Any common issues? I'm debating what my first rom should be after I root
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Restola:
I think right now the "biggest" items (depending on who you ask) are some bluetooth issues maybe, recording volume is low for videos, and some in call volume issues where call volume is a little loud. If you can deal with those flash away! I certainly think it's a daily driver.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WhammyDroid:
Besides the issues you listed, I have also been getting the in-call issue where you still hear the "echo" in the conversation and not the person on the other line. I have experienced it on 10/5, 10/7, and 10/10 nightlies.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] josh995:
So you hear yourself and not the other person? Does that mean you can't use it as a phone?

Also, do you, or anyone, know if you can turn the touch button lights off? I don't like them coming on when I tap them and I have them set to stay off, can you do this with CM10?

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mybook4:
I'm running 10/5 and I do not have echo. Also, yes, the touch button lights can be turned off.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] alee:
They can be forced to stay off.

Quite honestly, there is very little downside to trying any ROM days. CWM has been around for long enough that changing your mind is a non-issue. Roll back is totally reliable. There are some annoyances in my opinion, but certainly a daily driver. However, depending on how your use your phone, the things I don't sweat could end up being a deal breaker for you.

Wait until the M2 release (allegedly tomorrow), and just go for it.

Every time I reboot my CDMA subscription switches nv. Why does it do this? Also, is there a fix for sending pics through MMS? They are always sideways.

Also I flashed unofficial 10/10 that someone posted on my wife's phone and signal strength is consistently at -102 where it was at -104 or 105. Its better side by side with my phone. Were some changes made to fix this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sparkerjc:
Does anybody else have to push the home button twice to wake their phone up? I was on the 10/7 just flashed 10/10 so I'm not sure if it is still going to happen. Its almost like phone is too asleep. I don't have separate screen off governors or anything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shinjielric:
I'm on 10/10 and it works fine for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xsteven77x:
Won't m2 just basically be the next nightly with a different label? Allot of people seem to get that confused.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] chetqwerty:
Yes. Has happened as long as i can remember. Widget Locker or stock locker same thing
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] apacseven:
Same here, ever since the original invisiblek unofficial build from 8/16. Sometimes it does it more than others. In certain situations it wakes on the first tap, sometimes I have to hit it 5 times. Pretty frustrating.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] evandena:
Or the constant data drops. That can easily drive someone insane.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MG386:
Normally I would say yes, but last time I think they (cm team) said something about holding off on new commits for a few days so as to not break anything new and to allow time to iron out a few things.

On the other hand, I could be completely wrong :beer:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] That Baker Guy:
i think you're right it just supposed to be like a nightly thats confirmed stable enough to flash without breaking things.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] scriz:
m2 just posted :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TechSavvy2:
True dat. Im pretty sure they only hold off on commits for a day before hand. Downloading it now.

For me, M builds are just my weird excuse to clean install, lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] josh995:
OMG.

I just flashed this and I am getting this message:

A big yellow triangle

I unlocked using ez unlocker, and have CWM recovery, and also did a backup of my stock rom.

Where do I go from here?

I read that apparently I didn't unlock my bootloader? But I did, it said successful, anyway. I have to odin? IDK what that means. I'm a newbie to GS3 and I followed every instruction
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MG386:
When your phone boots, does the first Samsung logo flash on then very quickly dissapear, or does it stay on for a second or 2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] josh995:
It stays on for like 2 seconds
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] exoteric:
Now I'm scared to flash...

Josh, have you flashed a ROM (i.e. a cm nightly or m1) with custom kernel before?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MG386:
Your boot loader is not unlocked.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] josh995:
Nope this is my first time...

I swear the things said it unlocked :/

What to I do now? Is there a guide I can follow
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shinjielric:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] josh995:
I'm a newbie. This is the first time I've attempted rooting/flashing/whatever on my GS3. I did it on my HTC EVO with no problems, but that was a long time ago.

I'm learning. Don't know what odin is. How do I go about doing this? I can't even access bootloader, the same message comes up.

The method I used was to download the insecure boot loader to my SD card, then push using terminal.

The only way to confirm an unlocked bootloader AFAIK is to see the initial Samsung logo at boot go away very fast, like 1/10 second.

Edit: I've heard earlier versions of the unlock app work better than later versions, however I've never used the unlock app myself...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] josh995:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TechSavvy2:
Dude, calm down, lol. You're completely fine. The problem is that ez-unlock is not working right. The new 1.4 does not unlock it although it says it does. You need either 1.1 or 1.2 . Give me a sec and I'll dropbox it here for you. That's your only problem, your not actually unlocked.

This is way after the matter here.....but to the people talking about RIL a while back, we are ARMv7. Not 6. So several of the commits pertaining to "per v7" do not actually pertain to us, contrary to popular belief....which makes sense of why things didn't ever change with those updates.

But like I said, this is waaaayyyyy late on this comment.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shinjielric:

Do appreciate that link tho. Now I have a backup just in case.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TechSavvy2:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Zacharybinx34:
For those who clean flash. Did you just buy Titanium Backup Pro? Using the standard version and manually hitting install then close for each app is annoying!

Also, What system files do you restore for getting JUST your desktop and top icons in the pull down menu back? I wanna restore settings like that without conflicts.

And if I do that, after should I reinstall dirty install CM10 to overright anything or is it fine as is?

Also, the 4G data drops are rare and random, but really frustrating when playing Dota 2 while tethered. =(

Also, sometimes my google account will actually just send all the apps to be downloaded. Sometimes it doesn't. Anyway to manually make it do this?

You actually don't even have to install any cracked APKs; a simple edit of three lines of the /system/build.prop will allow you to download Wallet through the market.

Additionally, I have found that there are many locations that can accept Google Wallet who don't know they can do so. Really, anywhere you see the tap/blink/etc pad that you can tap a credit card on to pay can be used with Google Wallet.

I've personally used Wallet at my work cafeteria, Starbucks, vending machines that have card readers, Wendy's and many more places.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] senorbuck:
Just so I'm clear, and my apologies if this is has been answered before (searched for it...)... for the VZ SG3 folks - the low recording volume issues can only be fixed once a VZ JB update gets pushed? Or is the issue bigger than that?

Thanks :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NegativeOne:
"low recording volume" is a misconception. It's using the wrong microphone. The issue is bigger than that because it has to do with the sound management system in AOSP.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xsteven77x:
Ya it's starting to piss me off cause it's not that hard to just put the app back the way it was before they screwed it up. Just my opinion. Now all these people are getting scared that their stuff is broke for basically no reason.

10/11 is experimental M2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Brian Gove:
M2 was released on 10/11 and has that date stamp but it is essentially the same exact thing as the 10/10 build. 10/11 nightly has more commits done to it.

That is if we understand the milestone logic of how/what they are.

Well, it's obviously a sub domain of the main cyanogenmod Site... They build it and are the first places to get it.

Yes and no.

Yes, in that it clears out the database that the OS uses to determine how much of the battery share everything is using (screen, Android System, etc. All the stuff you see in the more detailed battery report).

No, in that clearing it won't improve your battery life or how the phone interprets how much battery it has.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Zalithian:
Going to stock is not necessary.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] iofthestorm:
Best way to back up the IMEI is the way that has you run something like 'reboot nvbackup' in a terminal. But don't do that until you find a thread about it because I'm quoting that from memory. But that method will back it up to the place where your phone tries to restore it from randomly (which is what causes the IMEI loss) which is blank by default so you'll never have an issue (as far as I know).

---------- Post added at 12:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:20 PM ----------

You definitely have to wipe data at the least. I dunno about going back to stock since I don't waste time with stock based ROMs but if you have issues with apps force closing don't bother posting here until you've followed instructions.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Nightwind Hawk:
No you don't have to do that. From what I've read, just wipe data, cache, and format system (why not..). Some people are fixing their NFC issues by going back to stock, enabling it, then going back to CM10.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] edwards311:
That's what I thought....just wanted to be sure since I have seen different opinions on everything.....plus flashing back to touchwiz seemed pointless since I am already on a AOSP/CM based ROM.
