After a day using 2.16 I'm getting the play music “can't play the song requested" only when pausing songs in the notification drop down and then trying to restart them or move to the next song. Doesn't happen every song but 2.15 was doing it also. 2.13, 2.14 didn't have this issue. Otherwise ROM is great!

When upgrading from 2.15 do I need to factory reset, wipe cache, and dalvik? or can I just install zip and reboot?

Also, I have purchased both jrummy's rom toolbox and rom manager as well as installed goomanager. Is there a rom app that has PA and allows upgrading through the app?

I finally decide to try this out after running Beans since I first got the phone. This is my first experience with AOSP on the S3 and I am very pleased with it so far. The only major issue I've had was the screen flickering, but that was solved by disabling hardware overlays in the settings menu. It's amazing how fast and snappy this ROM is, especially with animations lowered to 0.5x. I am enjoying the "hybrid" look, especially in the settings menu, and it's nice to have the on-screen buttons again (1st time since running AOSP on my DX). The battery life has been noticeably worse than Beans, but I usually have access to a charger throughout the day so that's not a huge deal for me. Thanks very much to the Dev and anyone else involved in creating and maintaining this fantastic ROM. Your time and effort is sincerely appreciated.

Can anyone tell me how to manually edit PAD? It's been a long time since I've messed with it but AFAIK there is no pad.prop or pal.prop anymore... I need to raise my DPI for an app and I'm not able to do it in paranoid settings..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] notta:
I was hoping for the best as I haven't had a single screen flicker yet and I was getting them decent at home screen!

I received email notifications and mms but I don't use anything else to get notified on... :o

I noticed a similar behaviour with 2.16 and apollo, so perhaps a bit more wide spread. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] notta:
You should be able to select it from the Apps part of Paranoid settings.

The manual way if done incorrectly can cause your phone not to boot! I believe that is a very crucial file for PA! Be warned! This also assumes you have a properly setup pc as well!

Pull the file

adb pull /system/etc/paranoid/properties.conf

Make your modifications or add your app!

com.package.name.dpi=240
com.package.name.layout=720

Now to place back on phone!

adb shell stop
adb remount
adb push properties.conf /system/etc/paranoid/properties.conf
adb shell su -c chmod 644 /system/etc/paranoid/properties.conf
adb reboot

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] notta:
I thought I was seeing the same.. You guys have to remember this is basically like a nightly!

I have stable builds and the echo fix seems to be easily implemented via a patch!

For those with battery drain try the aosp kernel everyone is mentioning or if you are capable enough revert back to the 08.28 boot.img and post results!

I will make a flashable zip and post a little later on... I need to grub... :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bill12690:
Thanks! Wasn't sure where this stuff was located now that pad and pal are pretty much done with. I ended up finding another version of the app that supported full screen on my S3, but this is still useful knowledge incase I need it later..

Edit: While I'm here, has anyone else had issues with bluetooth audio? I use my phone to stream music to my head unit in my car... but lately it seems that some apps won't stream the audio through bluetooth, while some do. Ex. Apollo will stream music through my car speakers just fine, but if I switch to an audio streaming app it plays through the speaker on my phone instead...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sdube3:
My notification sounds aren't working either for anything...MMS, texting, Facebook, email, etc. Clean wiped to get to 2.16. Never had any of these issues before. Any thoughts?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Demiurge7:
Been having an issue on 9-29. I always disable hybrid mode, and after reboot I disable HW to ease the now increased flicker. Works for a bit, and then phone will randomly switch back to hybrid mode. Sometimes after a reboot I don't see, but I am pretty sure it's done it twice without a reboot (if that's possible?). It also has randomly rebooted twice, both times booting with HW re-enabled (but staying out of hybrid mode). I am basically at the point I have to deal with flicker (which can get pretty bad). I tried several other ways to fix flicker, no transparent notification bar, and including upping minimum cpu. I've been using PA off and on as a dd for a month or two, and this is the first time experiencing this series of events. Used proper protocol on every flash, and did not dirty flash latest build.

Overall, amazing job on this. Ive flashaholiced everything, and keep coming back to PA (especially for its lack of glitches and reliability). Would appreciate suggestions, so I can continue to use this as my dd. PA is amazing, no other issues to report (though I do not use BT media) keep up the great work, and thank you!

Is anybody else having auto brightness kick up the brightness randomly when in an app with a bright background?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jspidah:
It expressly states in the "Quick Tips" section that you can't reassign the home button on the nav bar in Phone Mode.

I don't see any option to customize the Nav Bar in Tablet Mode.

Am I missing something? Two people said that I'm wrong about this - that you can reassign the Home Button on the nav bar in Phone Mode and that you can customize the Nav Bar buttons in Tablet Mode.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aznguyen316:
^ mine looks like that. I cannot modify on screen buttons in tablet mode.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddurandSGS3:
isnt the house looking icon in the nav bar the home button? ..........
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Clienterror:
Yea, he means you MUST have a on screen home button weather you want it or not despite having a physical home one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddurandSGS3:
ah gotcha. my apologies.

I had this problem with 2.06 and it actually made me stop using tablet mode. im just so conditioned to the buttons i dont think i could not use them.

id eventually get used to them, but i wasnt ready to try lol

anyways - upgraded to 2.16 from 2.06. the phone is much "snappier" than it was before.seems to be anyway.

got wallet and everything working so far.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fftlambet:
love the ROM! However, I cannot get my google photos to sync into gallery. Not a big deal just like having them all there. Thank you for the hard work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rainabba:
I can absolutely confirm that voice recognition must occur to the top microphone for success and the camcorder volume is also extremely low. I'm still having problems with Bluetooth audio output is well. Some music applications work but only a few (Play Music and Astro) , while others will output nothing from Bluetooth (Slacker).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tjohnstone3:
Just want to chime in and add that I am also having the bluetooth issues on 2.16. After a flash I re-paired my phone with my car stereo and Play Music was working just fine. After a couple of songs I got a 'couldn't play requested track' error and ever since that the music either plays through the phone speaker or i get the 'playback error'.

Not complaining, just wanted to chime in. Everything else is working flawlessly. Will go back to my 2.14 Nandroid until these issues are ironed out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mghilardi3:
Same issue for me as well. I actually jumped over to Codename Android to do some testing and found the issue did not replicate there. So it's just a bug in PA. I have no issues waiting for the next release.

Additional issues regarding the Bluetooth (not to criticize or anything, just for any further troubleshooting that may be needed)

- Bluetooth will sometimes not pair to a device or just "try to connnect" forever until it times out.

- When attached to A2DP Bluetooth, the pause play seems to continually run, or the skip command, (may have to do with the connection to the device not being initialized properly)

- May play through one app and not others, although once it plays one track through the app, it stops playing from that app and may or may not work in another app.

All in all, very curious issue. I am a huge PA supporter though, Love Paranoid! The battery life and performance are fantastic, so I could do with some Bluetooth oddities, while the fantastic Dev team work on the issue.

I seem to have lost 4g connectivity when i switched from 2.06 to 2.16.

IMEI is fine. 3G works fine, but i cannot get onto a 4g network.

any help? I had no issues with 2.06. is there a way to enable 4g? I have an LTE widget in my notification drawer. I dont get it with both mobile data on, and LTE on, and I dont get it with just LTE on. on 2.06 whenver i had mobile data id have 4g. I get great coverage in my area.

hope this is an isolated problem. any help appreciated.

Exact same problem I'm having. Currently on 2.15, think it started on 2.14

wonder how'd you get wallet.

im using 2.16.

whenever i clicked NFC from setting, it doesn't turn on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddurandSGS3:
its been working for me since i started using PA.

here you go.

1. flash a working TW rom.

2. Enable NFC

3. restore nandroid of CM10 rom

4. NFC - works.

i might be off a little, but thats the theory. if you check it in TW roms or stock root itll fix our issue.

im pretty sure this is a fix for GPS also

im using wallet and tags without any problems!

How can I clear data when the apk won't install or aborts upon install?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dpwhitty11:
Download it somewhere other than the market and place the apk is /system/app/, set permissions, and reboot. Should install like this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rainabba:
You misunderstood. I didn't mean to clear data for an app that isn't installed, I meant for the app that is causing FC's. In this case, that's Play Store.

Your other two options are use Titanium Backup to reconnect market links (if you have that installed or can get it to install) and then if you still cannot, wipe data/factory reset.

Fantastic Rom. Been my daily since yesterday. Very stable and super snappy as well.

Just one question - I"m in tablet mode and the status bar is enabled. When I long press on the status bar, the navigation ring shows up, but it only has one target - google now. How do I add more targets to the navigation ring?

Thanks!

I was just trying to restore a 2.13 nanodroid I had and it said he md5 didn't match. That never happened before to me while trying to restore. Anyone know what happened? I'm just going to delete it and I have no problem flashing a new build but that was a first for me
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] notta:
I noticed moles bumped the build so I put together a pre-build for testing. The music issue where it is skipping/freezing tracks is present and rather annoying! Upon research it seems to be isolated within the LPA (low power audio) mode! This was also causing a keep awake on mediaserver.

I have put together a zip that is cwm flashable that will install an init.d script that will turn the lpa decoding off (lpa.decode false) at every boot! As said I have not seen an issue since deactivating this. I don't have many things I can test with my phone so can anyone running PA from Sept 25th and forward try this and report. Is the problem resolved and has it caused any further issues?

To revert simply delete the script at /system/etc/init.d/disable_lpa

Just to let everyone know, the VRLHD modem is not stable on this ROM...at least it wasn't for me. I have read other reports that it will only function properly on the Verizon ROM built with this modem (scrosler built a base for this). I reverted back to the VRALG1 modem and all is well now.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rainabba:
For the purpose of running the GS3 as a smart[phone], this is about all the ROM I could hope for, but I've been struggling since 2.12 to actually use it as a phone because of the audio issues (echo, cutting out, Bluetooth). Am I a minority here? Do I have to settle for something else to try and get phone functionality back or is there hope? Please don't get me wrong. This is an outstanding ROM and I appreciate the Ops work very much. I WANT to keep running this ROM but I'm getting the impression that I'm one of few having these issues and they're not insignificant.

If anyone (op?) in the know can give me feedback, tips, advice, etc..., I'd appreciate it. Also, I'd love a recommendation for another ROM in case I have to switch. I want to stick with a fully functional JB but I will give up extra goodies like the DPI tweaks and layout stuff that PA give me if that results in a more usable phone.

Thanks in advance for help/feedback/recomendations/etc...

Unfortunately those of us with audio and the dreaded speakerphone echo problem seem to be in the minority. I have tried every JB ROM out there and that issue exists in all of them. If u want a stable no audio issue ROM then unfortunately u will have to go back to a TW ROM.

Radios are completely separate from ROMs so you can flash whatever whenever but it shouldn't be giving that guy FCs in apps.
