My flashlight toggle works for me but I did a clean flash, not a dirty one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] KevinGee:
Here are the screen shots of my battery usage and screen on time.

I'm on stock kernel 12/08 build and I haven't changed anything just flashed the rom and installed my apps and that's it no modification whatsoever. I'm loving this rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] unboostedzc:
Just reflashed 12/15 build with 12/15 modular gapps. Still having issues with the stock camera, anyone have any other suggestions?

EDIT: Flashing the modded camera and using anything but auto for the scene mode seems to have worked for now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Butterandguns:
I am on a clean install of the Beta and the LTE is working perfectly but I can neither make nor receive phonecalls or texts. Any help would be appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Schaweet:
I dirty flashed 12/15 over the last build and am using 11/26 gapps. Camera works just fine with and without the camera mod. Maybe try the 11/26 gapps?

No sim card

Well, now I'm worst off. Now, I have my phone telling me that I have no SIM CARD at all. I've rebooted the phone multiple times, wiped everything but data on internal and sd cards, reflashed 4.4, and even flashed back to 4.3.

So, the million dollar question is do I flash back to stock or is something else going on?

Side-note: I've already replaced my SIM card once a couple of weeks ago.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] flamus:
Looks like I manage to fix the no SIM card error (not sure exactly). I installed the adb drivers for windows and by the time I got these installed, my SIM was working. =\

Still getting "SIM Card removed" error though =(

Does anyone have a link to stable 4.3 paranoid android? Thank you
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] manaox2:
I never found one myself. 4.4.x is already twice as stable in my case.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] d1ez3:
I may give it a shot. Slim beta 1.7 is unstable for me, I was thinking of going to stock CM 10.2, but I hate the vanillaness of it, I need tweaks. Which nightly are you having success with, latest?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] manaox2:
Yeah, I'm on the 12/15 build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] KevinGee:
Yeah this 4.4.x rom is stable enough. I was on the 12/08 and that one was perfect enough but then I heard of the added tweaks on 12/15 so i flashed it and it has been running good so far.

And by unstable, what exactly do you mean by that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] doratheconquistadora:
For my alarm problem I ran a test where instead of using my own mp3 that I placed in the Alarms folder that I've been using through many versions, I used one of the built in ones instead and it worked.

Here's hoping it works in 6 hours when I need to get up for work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] unboostedzc:
I just went back and re-read your alarm issue, and have been having the exact same issue. I've been attributing mine to overlaps in the alarms/sleep duration's but haven't figured it out yet.

i.e. If I set an alarm for 6:35 with an optional 5min snooze, another at 6:41, another at 6:47. The first one never appears to go off, the second usually will and the third usually will. All three alarms are going off in the pulldown/settings but completely silent. I'm using Sleep as Android btw.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
Are u guys adding ur custom alarm tone in the sd card alarm folder or system/media/alarm? Put the Alarms in system/media/alarms Make sure ur permissions are set right as well

My custom ring tones won't work unless the permissions are set to rw-r-r

New build is awesome Notta. Thanks for the light bulb tile and the quick pull down for tiles!

Is there any way to add a Play/Pause tile in the quick settings tiles? We had it in 4.3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] doratheconquistadora:
I've been putting alarms and ringtones into their respective folders on the sd card and didn't alter the permissions at all. Ringtones work fine when people call me. I'll try moving the alarms to /system/media/alarm and changing the permission and then I'll run tests to see how it goes. Might be some time before I can verify this as I just got to work and have 13 hours before I can go home.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
all other roms prior to 4.4 didnt need to change perms on sound files but for some reason (at least for me) my sounds won't show up unless I change the perms. maybe its a new 4.4. thing. I dont know, I was just throwing it out there for you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DreadCode:
12/15 Build won't play my music and crashes apollo when I first plug headphones in. Usually I have to force close a few times and it works again
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] brons2:
Just installed this.

The good:

Solid ROM. Seems to be working really well. Phone works, camera works, apps work. Haven't found anything broken yet.

The bad:

4.4 blows. I want 4.3 back.

Assuming that this is the default Kitkat launcher, why did they make it more like iOS? Swipe to the left and you get Google Now no matter what, and all your extra screens to the right? Just like iOS. Just exceedingly lame to so blatantly copy crApple, whether I ultimately use a replacement launcher or not. I am disappointed in Google for pulling this crap.

Worse, Google Now doesn't work as well for me on this release. I use the Google Now widget on my home screen to track things I care about, like the weather, commute times, my sports teams, my stocks, etc. But now when I click on an item on the widget, it just takes me to the Now screen and doesn't go to the item that I clicked on. It used to be that if I clicked on an item like the weather, it would go right to the weather. Now it just goes to wherever the last place I was on the Now screen.

Another thing: I expect that clicking on the Menu button and then Settings will take me to the System Settings. But now it takes me to the Google Now settings? @#$%#$^#$&^#$. I know how to get to the damn Google Now settings. I want this button to fetch the System settings. It should not take me more than two clicks to get to System settings from the home screen.

So far I don't really care for the new phone app either.

Whoever was in charge of making these UI changes should be taken out back and flogged. I have appreciated every incremental upgrade until now. KitKat is a step backwards.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dawest:
Someone has mentioned the flashlight not working from QS, I can second that, clean install of 12/15.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] doratheconquistadora:
That's weird. I mean my problem was never them not showing up, just the alarm crashing. Nonetheless, this is probably good practice anyways.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
I had same issue upon fresh install. Go into Apps and clear data/cache and force stop Apollo. Go back into app and its fine.

Working fine for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Torfin:
Loving it!

Using the latest as my daily driver and it is smoooooooooooooth! :good:

Only hiccup I had was a data issue with google music but a quick reboot cleared that up and it hasn't happened since (I'm guessing it was a cell tower issue, my signal kept bouncing up and down).

I've seen a few posts regarding exFat compatibility, how's everyone's experience been so far? I've got a 64gb card I was thinking of using.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] KevinGee:
4.4 is way better than 4.3 IMO I find it more stable and better overall. As for the Google experience launcher just use another launcher.

You're the first person I see talk bad about it. If you don't like it don't use simple as that.

And as for the settings, if you're on the 12/15 build, just pull down the from the right to access quick toggles and press the settings icon. I'm pretty sure it's up there for a reason right.

But every one is entitled to have their own opinion so if you say 4.4 is a step backwards then it's ? but I'm sure many people disagree ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] brons2:
It worked for me after the first reboot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] notta:
Update!

Not a whole lot going on with this one. Some bluetooth reverts and basically just pulling fresh sources and I had to right some wrongs with another build so queued em up. :good:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] notta:
No option to disable the right side pull down. PA made it default. Lightbulb worked for me but I can say this. I have noticed that some things just don't seem to stick right at times. Example Launcher3 sometimes doesn't properly setup the workspace but re-flashing corrects it. Maybe the case not sure but it is working for me.

PA did that stuff.. :D

I can look into it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] o0BlacknesS0o:
For those discussing the alarms... You should have or be able to create folders on the Internal storage labeled Alarms...Notifications...Ringtones and the system will pick them up after a reboot... That way you don't have to keep moving then into the system after a flash
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Torfin:
Being irrational.....

So this is me being totally irrational but I REALLY want that shark splash screen back from the previous build! :eek:

Can anyone point me in the direction of a flashable mod to bring it back? Or maybe a DIY thread on making your own splash screens?

I like the new boot logo, but that shark was boss!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Maphack:
I got my replacement sd card from sandisk literally today and I can't get it to read exfat. i'm running ktoons and it is supposed to support exfat.

i formatted it to fat32 and thank god it worked, i really did not want to go through the process of asking for another replacement...

i'lm going to flash this newest build and give it a shot

edit: exfat not working :(

edit 2: i think exfat is working. i reflashed the rom and didn't flash ktoons. in the changelog for ktoons it said exfat support was implemented, so i didn't think much of it, but it seemed weird for it to not work on this rom.

i guess there's some kind of conflict or ktoons is too out of date
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stu1811:
I agree that it would be nice if we could move the Google Now page. I wish it wasn't statically set as one to the left of the home screen.

You cant say "Ok google" from your home screen, but it's better in every other way in my opinion. Stock launcher has never been good.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] manaox2:
Redownload the file and make sure you have a Verizon galaxy s3. What recovery are you using?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] roghitmanx47:
Well now I'm pretty sure my phone is soft bricked now because I can't even revert back to my last backup. I'm on TWRP 2.6.3 and I've had no problems before. The screen will flash the Samsung logo then just go black and stay there until I reboot back into recovery again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] manaox2:
Is your boot loader unlocked? I would re download the ROM and gapps onto your sdcard and flash if so. Make sure you clear data factory reset after.

Time to download a stock image and use ODIN then I suppose. I thought you could still get to recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] roghitmanx47:
I was afraid it would come to that answer haha isn't there a Stock Image thread around here?

---------- Post added at 04:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:24 PM ----------

And I can get into recovery still! Its just I can't flash the file because TWRP tells me it cannot open the .zip file. That's how it all started, then I tried to revert to my last backup and that was somehow messed up too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] manaox2:
That is what I meant with my instructions above. I assumed twrp could flash zip files from the sdcard. You need to use another phone or card reader and a computer to download a proper zip file, certain that your zip file on there is corrupted.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] roghitmanx47:
Ohhhh, I am so sorry man! I misread your reaply, I will try this before having to revert back to stock firmware, will report back, thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
I just got the last build set up and u drop another one on us LOL! Thanks Notta!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] brons2:
Yea yea yea

The stock launcher on Eclipse was Trebuchet, which was fine with me ;)

I went ahead gave Nova another chance, I liked Apex better before, but I thought maybe try Nova again since it seems to consistently be more popular. Much happier now with the launcher state.

Guess I'll try to get used to the other stuff.

---------- Post added at 05:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:00 PM ----------

ok one confusing thing.

I'm a big user of Google Voice since the Verizon signal doesn't penetrate the building I am in, so it just works better to join the WiFi network and use Google Voice to send all SMS messages.

This ROM came with "Voice+" to allow all apps to send using Google Voice, which I went ahead and turned on.

Seemed like a good idea at the time but now all my Google Voice messages are going into Hangouts, which is where my regular SMS messages go too. I still need to use the regular SMS to send MMS messages like pictures or group sends. But I'm used to using two different apps to do it. So how can I tell Hangouts which number to use if I'm doing a new message? Or is it just smart enough to know which one to use? It would be cool to be able to use only one app but I want it to use my voice number by default unless sending an MMS.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] manaox2:
I haven't had any problem with using voice+ and messenger for MMS. It's doing something. MMS sent to my voice also show up in my gmail. Pretty cool, I just have to get used to not using the voice app itself or I receive two responses and the conversation doesn't sync correctly in my messenger app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] doratheconquistadora:
Well yeah. That's how I've always done it. Seems like the 12/15 did something differently regarding alarms and causing the FCs for me.

Also, has anyone got Tap and Pay to work? I have Google Wallet set up and I know my NFC works since I use a tag to check the balance on my Clipper (transportation) card from time to time. I tried different things at a Walgreens that accepted Google Wallet with the Pay Wave thing and I just couldn't get it to work. :/

I apologize if this has been covered before, but is there a way to get pull down toggles in this ROM currently? Can I also disable quick tiles?

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
Maybe? LOL

No. And No. Those features are not included yet but they shouldnt be that far off. Each update has brought us something new. We just got the light bulb toggle. I really miss the power toggles in the drop down as well, tiles arent my thing. Especially the Play/Pause toggle. I think Gummy rom has them.

I just had another Apollo freeze up. I went into app clicked the play button on the bottom and the app FC. Tried again 2 more times same thing. Had to wipe data/cache and force stop in settings/app to get it to work again. Maybe its time to start using the latest Walkman port.

About to install. Few quick questions -- is this good for daily driver? Do GAPPS include google dialer? Nfc working? Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
this is a fantastic DD!!! Im not sure if any GApps right now have the GooDialer included. But there is a thread in the Apps/Themes section with a zip for the dialer. When I install a new Rom or update, I clean wipe, flash Rom, flash Gapps and then flash the GOODialer zip. Ive never had an issue doing it that way. Dialer works 100% and its one of the cooler features to come out in a while. In order to have search features Location setting must be on.

Im pretty sure NFC works. I shared a photo with my GF thru NFC a few builds back to test it and it worked. If ur asking about NFC for Google Wallet I dont think it works for Tap and Pay yet, or so ive read, I never use Wallet.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Torfin:
When you downloaded the rom did you save it to an SD card or to the phones internal memory? I was having a very similar issue till I saved it to the phone and not the SD card.

---------- Post added at 09:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:45 AM ----------

I'm having a similar issue using Audio Manager (a text message hiding app). Both hangouts and Audio Manager are getting texts no matter what settings I check or unchecked in regards to which messaging service to use. Never happened before, but i'm assuming it's somthing to do with the zero day PA gapps and not the rom itself.

I can't get better than 8 with 2 hrs screen on time....sync off, along with all gps related settings, one widget(bw), screen at about 30 percent and most of the time I'm underclocked to 832 ish.

I've tried almost every rom/kernal combo for the gs3 and they are all far from what I got on stock....I'd hate to go back to stock but 14 hrs and 4 screen on time was amazing.

I was hoping to put another build up tonight some time. Although at some point I may not be able to do nightly's! Considering this is PA's source and 2.0 is the next slated updated, I do not want to distribute 2.0 source in a 1.99 build! Also wouldn't want to spoil anything... :p

That said and also considering everything functions quite well as a daily, I may only make builds for significant changes and maintenance. At least until I get some further information.

I'm trying to get a charge now so I can test out a few things before cleaning and building! :D Just a heads up...
