Does anybody's phone ever randomly turn off or the screen just wont wake up with the home or power button? I always have to do a battery pull when that happens. Not just this build, I've experienced it in previous builds as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sinman02:
Thanks... I know know that work around... Just that this worked brilliantly before 2.17. Just wondering if this can be fixed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
Im sure it would be fixed if it could be at this point in time...past history tells me that cayanogen must of released a fix for something that broke torch in the kernel...not the first time it happened, nor will it be the last. This is Android Open Source Project, where folks take time to bring us custom software at no expense. I can deal with a few work arounds in exchange to play with FREE software.

Dont take this post the wrong way, as Im not lashing out at you!! But for some reason I feel that there are quite a few folks that have this sense of self entitlement, like this stuff is owed to them or something??

Never had this once...try wiping data, reformat system, and reflash rom/gapps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dag1337:
Any recommendations on which kernel and modem to use? When I used lean kernel on build 2.17 I got lots of screen flashes, wasn't sure if anything else was going on. Someone said the VRLHD modem was broken on build 2.17 so I flashed the VRLG1 modem. I just flashed build 2.18 and I have just the regular paranoid kernel that comes with it and VRLG1 modem. Any suggestions for best performance/battery life?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sinman02:
No sense of entitlement here, just pointing out what works and doesn't work, in case other people are wondering... Isn't that what this forum is for...to exchange observations and ideas? Just sayin'...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aznguyen316:
I too noticed this. Glad it wasn't just me. I'll have to remove the toggle then.

Battery life so far has been excellent with LK1.13exp1 + PA2.18, very happy with it over. My weekend with AOKP battery was pretty horrible.

I keep dropping 3g data any ideas why or am I just missing something?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kmoore11:
I dirty flashed this over 2.15, and now I can't find the option to make my status bar transparent (I'm in tablet mode). Is it not an option anymore or am I just missing it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sdube3:
I'm having the same issue here. Tried everything, full wipe, AGPS patch in the forums, etc. Sometimes I'll get a lock, but it'll never lock again after that. Seems to recognize the satellites, but can't fix to them.

Either way, this ROM is hands-down the best one out there. Just this GPS issue that is killing me right now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddurandSGS3:
made a nandroid. get a gps lock on stock roooted or with a touchwiz rom installed. restore your CM10 nandoid right after.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tombepa:
Not Bad
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rainabba:
Not bad but my Rezound is still calling for me to come back for its battery life (26 hours with 3 hours screen on ICS).

Man I wish I could get my GS3 to do THAT! It's so much faster and the bigger/thinner screen is so nice though :(

---------- Post added at 04:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:05 PM ----------

Many of us are having echo/feedback and bluetooth audio issues with this ROM for quite some time. I'm on 2.16 (didn't see any point to moving to 2.17) and I'm reading up now to see if there's any reason to think that 2.18 will be worth the trouble.

---------- Post added at 04:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:07 PM ----------

As someone else said, it is a "feature", but I too have experienced this despite setting the sleep feature to "Always on". I'm on 2.16 right now and having the issue. Each time the phone sits for a while it disconnects.

---------- Post added at 04:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:10 PM ----------

Yeah, like he's holding it wrong? I'm happy if I make it to 16 hours with 1.5/2 hours of screen. I've NEVER gone much past that with this ROM. Maybe you could consider that usage habits vary greatly and there are other things going on with this phone and ROM that are unexplainable (like how some of us are still experiencing echo) instead of telling him that he's "doing something wrong" (yeah, I saw the smiley face as if that mattered).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pinhead875:
So I understand 2.19 will be 4.1.2. Can't wait.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Dcox28:
2.18 is very nice but the speakerphone echo issue still exists. I have just been trying to not use speakerphone and when I absolutely have to for work then I use my home phone instead. Other than that issue this ROM is great. With pimp my ROM I'm getting incredible battery life

I'm not sure if this has been covered, and I have been searching for a while... but why is it that when I update this ROM with a newer version/nightly, I have to reinstall Google Apps? I don't remember that happening on the CM10 nightlies.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] got556:
But that kernel is not for vzw S3's.....or are you telling me you're running it on your vzw S3 w/ this ROM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Dcox28:
That link was for Paranoid Android settings that get covered in the AT&T forum which should be same on our phone as well. The KT kernel is the kernel that i'm using and it is for our phone and can be found in the Original Development section. I haven't noticed bad battery drain yet and am using the KT kernel. I read from a developer of another rom that has that kernel included in his rom that he uses pegasusq as the governor and bfq for the I/O Scheduler. I have set both of those and also set it to apply on boot and then rebooted. My battery life has been pretty good so far.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Royel:
noticed a lot of screen flickering with 8/29. and holding the home softkey would bring up google now and then the recent apps ui
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ghilliek9:
Great Rom! One question....I keep getting this flicker at the very top right by the status bar. Is there a fix for that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] got556:
Check your Disable Hardware Overlays in the Developer Options Settings
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Dcox28:
This rom still seems pretty cool for me but I may have spoken to soon on everything working good for me. I would assume that the Paranoid Android settings, MODES such as Phablet, Tablet etc are a big selling point for this rom. Mine don't work. I can go in and select any one of the modes such as Phablet and then it asks me to reboot which I select OK and it does reboot. When it comes back up it is in the same default mode and nothing has changed. I have tried Tablet mode as well and it does the same thing, which is nothing........................HUGE BUMMER

Edit - Nevermind, modes are indeed working and I am a dumbass. That is all

Let's make this perfectly clear!

Can I quit getting pm's about posting this. This thread was in general, I posted this to share my personal build, no more no less!

I even went as far to try and stick it out but apparently people are getting there feelings hurt!

The moderator has cleared everything and states nothing has been done wrong!!!

Furthermore, the sdcard issue was the battery issue and that is resolved! But perhaps I shall become a closet builder once again!

So embarrassing!

Anyone bootloop with the 8.29 release? I had the 8.28 release installed, pretty solid. Nandroid backup, booted into CWM 6.0.1.0, wiped data/factory reset, flashed 8.29 and 7/27 gapps. Boots up once fine, get to homescreen and after a minute or two it says no sim card inserted. Rebooting throws it into a bootloop.

For now i've just restored my 8.28 backup and I have the call echo, no big deal. Thanks for posting this up for us!

This is by far the best ROM I've used for the sg3 and I've been on them all at least once. I hope the complaining doesn't push you away as this ROM is the only medicine to my crack flashing addiction.

The key to good battery life is using custom brightness settings in CM10. Here are a few screenshots of my battery life today, it's usually better but I had 1.5hrs of phone calls and did some tethering/RDC, definitely a very heavy usage day for me with no WiFi either (which saves a ton of battery over 3G/4G)

I can't wait to come back to this ROM. But the speakerphone echo is a killer. Does this plague everyone or is it just a select few? Is this a CM10 bug or Paranoid thing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PureLife90:
I don't have any issue with the echo. I'm on the phone all the time and I use speaker a lot as well and still no echo on my end.

Anyways, im running 10-4 (the last build) can I flash this new build over it and just wipe my cache and be alright or should I completely reset everything?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] elreydenj:
I have the echo as well. It is never on your end. It is the person that you are talking to that hears an echo of themselves. Sometimes it is slight and sometimes it is unbearable.

Is that just a temporary fix or permanent fix?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] skusa93:
Check my post a page or two back about lowering screen brightness settings, it's the biggest way to save battery life. As for flashing a kernel, it's the exact same as rom flashing, download and flash with recovery.

This is called the screen of death, not necessarily rom related I would suggest a Google search and read through some of the info out there, but you're definitely not alone I used to get it all the time on my nexus.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rainabba:
Mind linking to LK1.13exp1? Also, what radio are you using (baseband)?

Last night I flashed 2.18 and the HD radio (have since flashed G1 radio) and my battery is acting like someone has cranked up everything. WiFi or not, "Awake" isn't slammed as I'd expect, 40 minutes of screen, strong 4G signal, and after only 1Hr,49Mins, I'm down to 68% from a full charge. I don't think I've ever had a device drain this badly and this phone typically gives me 12-18 hours on all the PA roms I've run so far (and I've been running PA since 2.0).

I'm about to revert to 2.16 backup and see how it behaves there with the HD radio to try and isolate the cause.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sinman02:
Sounds like you have a rogue app or something keeping your phone awake. I've been running 2.18 with the latest HD radio and my battery has been fine. The shots below are with 1.25 hours of screen time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rainabba:
My experience is that "rouge" apps always keep the phone awake and that's how you can confirm that issue. That's not what I'm experiencing. Nothing in my battery stats explains the drain. "My experience is different" doesn't mean I'm wrong either as I'm one of the people having echo and BT problems as well. There's something going on that's yet to be nailed down by the community and it's either a remnant from another rom (unlikely since I've formatted partitions before installing and still experience it) or something I'm missing because I was so thorough (again unlikely since I didn't format until I experienced the issue) or there are differences in hardware that have yet to be identified.

I'm not trying to argue, just putting the facts out there.

UPDATE: Just thought to check again and it looks like the drain has leveled out since i installed the G7 radio. I'll give it another hour or so then flash HD back to see if the problem returns.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Soulripper180:
Anyone else been having issues getting the rom to switch to stock phone mode?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rainabba:
Thank you.

Another update about my battery drain: After flashing back to G7 and things holding steady for a while, I flashed back to HD and recharged to 100%. Now I've gone 1h 48m, Wifi on the entire time (doesn't look to be disconnecting as it was before) and I'm still at 96% (just changed as I was typing this). That's MUCH better. At this rate of discharge, I'd get 45 hours on a single charge (virtually no use, but still incredible standby).

Also, SpeedTest.net on Wifi is hitting 24Mb/10Mb where the same test on my PC (Cox Ultimate Cable) gives me 65Mb/5.5Mb. LTE gives me 10.5Mb/3.5Mb (not the best I've seen, but not bad).

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JMooney5115:
This morning I updated to 2.20 from 2.10. There are two things that I noticed aren't working which were working in 2.10.

Torch: When I turn on torch from the notification toggle, the LED doesn't come on but a notification appears as if it is working.

Navigation Menu Button: I like my menu button on the on screen navigation bar. In 2.10 it appeared as the menu overflow button in apps but I cannot get it to appear for the menu button in 2.20. I can select 'Menu (alwaysShow) button' and the menu button is always there; I want it to appear only when needed.

Audio Staticy: This occurred on first install of: 2.17, 2.18, and 2.20. The first time audio played it was very staticy above ~30% volume. It was awful. I changed songs or restarted (PowerAMP), and the static went away and hasn't come back in YouTube or Pandora as well.

These are my issues, let me know if I'm a dummy and doing it wrong.

manatti: Here's what Google Now gives me when I say something related to calling Best Buy:

Call Best Buy: shows the nearest Best Buy with a countdown until it is going to call

Call Best Buy (zip code): Shows a map of the nearest Best Buy

Call Best Buy (City, State): Shows a map of all the Best Buy's in the City, State

I just tested this while on Liquid Smooth. I never used Google Now voice, just for the cards. Anyway, saying Best Buy it searched for Best Buys near me fine. When I said "Call Best Buy" it knew what I said, but pulled up a contact card of my cousin to call.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddurandSGS3:
google now is probably independent from PA, no?

does it pop up a random contact every time or one that could possibly sound like best buy to google nows ears? Ive had the latter happen before. I searched for something that sounded similiar to a contact in my phone. It started the countdown to call. it only happened that one time.
