No errors while flashing. Using twrp 2.3.1.0. Wipe everything, then slim 2.8, then gapps. When I get time start screen it starts telling me unfortunately ***** has stopped working. The phone freezes and sometimes does full reboots by itself.

Shh! maybe I'm just paranoid, but I think people are listening....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RoboJoe:
That *should* work. So, off the top of my head, there are a few things we're taking for granted that could cause your problem.

Define "wipe everything".

Make sure you're flashing the correct version of the ROM for this phone.

I saw you ask about the MD5 for the files; did you verify that your files weren't corrupt?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ogrekane313:
its says google maps isnt compatible with my device. anyone else have this issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nativesmiley:
I'm getting the same with Facebook. Idk why its like that either
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fusiongalaxy:
I don't get a not compitable message with Facebook. But if I go into the "my apps" section when im in the play store app Facebook doesnt show up even though I have it installed. I have to manually search for it for some reason?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eris72:
I've tested 4 roms in the past 24 hours, AOKP build 5, latest paranoid, eclipse build 2, and slim 2.8. This is the only one without some really funky graphical issues for me. And I cannot say enough how much I love the combination of CM power widget and AOKP brightness slider. Awesome work
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FrostyOrDie:
When I wipe everything I mean cache, dalvic, data, and system 3 times each. And I did verify MD 5

Shh! maybe I'm just paranoid, but I think people are listening....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nativesmiley:
Still nothing with Facebook app. Can't find it in the market. Its installed but can't find it on the market

Play store and music not working

Updated to 2.8 from 2.61 via dirty flash (according to instructions, was OK to wipe cache/dalvik then flash rom and new gapps). Neither play or music would work at all, but then I installed inverted gapps and actually seemed to work fine (loaded normally) but then I receive a network error message whenever I try to play a song or install an app. Any ideas? I tried flashing an update once before when 2.7 was released via a full wipe and I had the same problem. I'd like to avoid having to wipe again just to have the same result.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
dude ive never used that **** before.

good looks!

rom is still smooth as butter btw..i just need to find the right kernel for batt life. :good:

---------- Post added at 02:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:13 PM ----------

u need to re-flash. start from scratch (wipe davlik cache's / wipe system all that good stuff) and install the AIO zip. i have facebook, pinterest, tweetcaster all working with no issues.

soooo try wiping all and flashing again? ive been on the ROM for the last 24hrs with absolutely no issues at all. of course i came from another rom so i wiped all and started fresh, but .. it always works out better that way anyways.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nativesmiley:
I flashed the gapps, extras.zip, and the AIO in the beginning. Should I flash only certain ones??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
after wiping EVERYTHING, flash the ROM and then the AIO zip. Let that boot and settle in for about 5 min, then set up your phone. Reboot to recovery and then wipe your cache. flash the extras zip and you should be golden.

dont forget to hit the thanks..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] werdpark:
Play music works now but not Play store. I also noticed the bluetooth issue is still there. Playing music through my Logitech mini box is painful - static and crackling. I will just try to wipe everything and re-flash. Probably won't fix the bt issue but hopefully play store will recover. I can live with reverting to ics when I want to play through bt.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
bt was iffy at first but was able to get it to sync to my car this a.m. it took me about 5 min's but it worked after that.

ok i was able to replicate your Google Play Music issue. when you go to launch it, it gives you a FC. glad i dont use that. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
This looks rather interesting... anybody wanna comment on anything that's different in this compared to liquid smooth?

and by that i mean its got the latest CM merges correct? I looked through the changelog but couldn't tell.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nativesmiley:
so i should only flash the AIO and the Extras.zip and not the gapps?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
According to this http://slimroms.net/index.php/new-addons-menu/new-addon-app-list-menu the AIO already has the extras.zip in it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
exactly.

AIO = All In One.

so its all inclusive to that one zip. its the only other zip i use when i flash a Slim Rom, its all you really need.

@Neverendingxsin

i really cant say whats the difference in the 4.1.2 i just know stability and functionality have always been on the money with this and with Beanstown Touch Wiz's Rom. The only two i really flash, the only two i follow.

besides Cordell's pretty chill lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
I might have to take a stab at this then. I read a page or two back that there are currently some google now issues so i may hold off for the moment.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cordell12:
The Google Now issue was device wide for SlimBean 2.8 and has been resolved. All downloads have been made proper.

also Google Play Music is being looked into. it doesnt FC on me, is it FC'ing when accessing paid music or what is happening exactly?

edit...wiped and flashed rom/aio and google music still doesnt FC for me. How do i reproduce this? thanks

can I get a logcat if possible???
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
Well then in that case i guess i should give this rom a chance ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
u might be changing that signature pic soon as well lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
We shall see :) I've been meaning to do a clean install of anything for a while now, was hoping liquid would have an update. But i'm always up for trying new things :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tucstwo:
I don't know why but the site host is giving me over a half hour to d/l the rom and an hour to d/l the AIO package. Is SB having problems with their host? Going really slow tonight for some reason. Jus wondering.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] werdpark:
Did full wipe and everything looks good except for BT (which I use A LOT). Play music and store both work now. I'll just have to reboot to ICS when I want to use BT.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
just a hiccup in the process. i say refresh the page and see how that works for you.

(p.s. i just tried downloading it and it said i had 4 min's.)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tucstwo:
It actually timed out mid download twice. I tried it on my computer and phone. both times, the add on pack has taken over an hour. Its KILLING ME, I SAY!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
Is there a way to turn off the notification light being on while charging?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] foreverinpanama:
Thanks for this, works great so far. Will try it out and if I run into anything I'll make sure to make myself useful and put all relating information and problem here.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] letinsh:
For some reason, I'm having some serious connectivity issues... I flashed clean, full wipe, etc.

Status bar shows 3g and 4G connectivity, depending where I am, and it'll be in blue, indicating a connection with Google servers (right?) but none of my apps will have data (even after toggling airplane mode) .

Maps won't connect, mail won't fetch, Google+ says it doesn't have a connection, XDA won't launch, etc. When I switch to wifi, no issues, but this is quickly killing this rom as an option for me... And I really dig it :(

I've done nothing but a stock install, stock kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
And also whats the stock dpi?

checked FAQ and found the answer

---------- Post added at 12:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:10 AM ----------

Check your IMEI
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
that sucks. hopefully you got it working and all squared away
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] techgov8:
So is the google now issue fixed? Are there any other bugs? Im still on 2.7 but wanna update but dont wanna loose any functionality.

Tap'n
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] steveo11284:
I went to 2.8 yesterday w/o doing a full wipe. Google Now and everything else I've tried works fine!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] letinsh:
IMEI's fine. Sometimes mobile data works, and sometimes it doesn't. Haven't been able to sort it out...oh well :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] indyssee:
Try rebooting and then toggle data off and on (not airplane). I have to do this after every reboot but then is fine from then on. This has been on every aosp rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fusiongalaxy:
+1 i liked it better without the led staying on while charging. Don't know why everyone likes that anyways?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
i wonder the same thing, but he said he'd be adding a native toggle for it in 2.9. For now my "fix" is to just put quiet hours on while i charge and turn off the LED notification in quiet hours settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] techgov8:
I agree. There's no option to turn it off (at least that I've found)

Tap'n

---------- Post added at 04:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:15 PM ----------

Yea I said screw it, may as well try it myself and just made a backup and flashed 2.8 so far everything works great!

Tap'n
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
+1 on this.

that yellow light was annoying eh?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
very annoying and it changed to green when the phone was fully charged. I didn't notice at all until finally after setting it up i plugged in my phone and thought "what the heck is that light on for?" lol.

I'm sure it'll get worked out :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
oh yea, for sure! its something so minor in the grand scheme of things

so whats ur take on the rom thus far?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] techgov8:
Ive had this ROM as a daily driver for a while now and I love it. Especially since im not too big on touchwiz cause i came from a Motorola and couldn't get used to the new interface. I was flashing different ROMs daily and was ever fully satisfied. This is what im sticking with! (until my note 2 arrives :D)

Tap'n
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
I actually really like it, but last night it gave me repeated hot reboots, and now its doing it right now. I'm at 5 right now, can't even really do much. It boots up then works about 10 seconds, mounts the sd card, freezes and reboots :( Completely fresh install, only installed the AIO zip on top of it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] techgov8:
Try wiping cache/dalvik/factory reset and see if that helps

Tap'n
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
I just now managed to do a battery pull and things seem normal, went in and reverted the lean kernel voltages to 1150 or whatever to see if that was the cause. If it happens again ill wipe cache and davlik, would rather not have to do another clean install.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] techgov8:
Yea I dread doing those

Tap'n
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
I did one to install the rom and didn't have any issues, and didn't restore any kind of data that would cause an issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
theres the problem. the voltage was too high.

see when i flash a new kernel i dont like to tinker too much with the voltages for things of that nature happening. so glad u got it back on track..

lets see how it goes
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
im hoping that was the issue. Oddly enough i never messed with the voltage originally, left it all stock. But figured it was probably a kernel issue, ill update if anything else happens. What are your voltages at? Just curious
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Coderedpl:
I've grown used to touchwiz, might have to give this a try though. Not seeing too much negative comments.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
Trust me, you will not miss touchwiz ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
honestly stock. i dont touch it at all. ive looked at the voltages, watched them fluctuate but i never mess with them. i used to on my GNEX and even both on my Inc 2 and OG Dinc, but not with this device. I have to apply a rom that has been sluggish.

i mean ive only really used 3, but even still out of the 3 that survived my daily destruction, i didnt touch those settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
Thanks for the tip :) i just set them back to what i had them set at when i was on liquid. And those voltages were 1150 all the way across the board.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cordell12:
Question, were you playing a game when this started happening (hot boots)? If so what game, if not a game what app if any were you messing with? I have found a bug in ROM, not just Slim, all AOSP ROMs built since the MSMFB_OVERLAY_COMMIT merged, about 3 weeks ago. The 15th of Oct, when the kernels wouldn't boot the device until they match the header, anyway. Certain games such as "Jewels legend" will kick these hot boots off, and once they start it takes a battery pull. I was reluctant to even release 2.8 due to this, but after following other AOSP ROM Threads and no mention of it (even though I can reproduce on all of them) I decided to go a head and release.

Myself and Imoseyon (lean kernel dev) have been trying to track down exactly what the cause is. He thinks its in the ROMs, hate to say it but I agree Imoseyon post about the hot boots If you can please get me the dmesg and last_kmesg, or a logcat at min.

Looks like LPA (low power audio) is making its way back into the repo ;)

EDIT... can you reproduce the hot boots using http://db.tt/o08t72GG <---test build 2.8.1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
I downloaded the test build and will try it after work. Oddly enough all I was doing when it started last night was changing themes in the theme chooser and it suddenly started happening. Nothing to intensive or anything
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] drmanhattan:
I Read though the bugs and FAQs and didn't notice a fix so hopefully u guys have the answer. I have a nasty screen flickering bug that happens when not touching the screen. Love the ROM hope there is an easy fix

When everybody agrees there is something in it for everybody
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] techgov8:
Go to settings-> developer options-> disable hw overlays and you should be all good. It doesn't stick on boot so you'll have to do it after a reboot

Tap'n
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cordell12:
Wasn't " The Next Level Theme" was it? That theme and a few others will cause crashes as it modifies the layout.XML. being Slim is AOSP based and not CM the layout.XML are different causing a crash. I'm sure there are a couple more of these CM only themes floating around the forums.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RoboJoe:
I've had that happen to me two separate times; once watching (streaming) a movie using Plex, the other was watching a video on YouTube. Both times it happened after about 10 to 15 minutes of continuous streaming. Hot boots would cycle until a battery pull.

How do I install this test build? Just wipe dalvik and cache and flash?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddurandSGS3:
disable hw overlays in developer options.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
No it wasn't. But on that topic which themes would be okay? Anything thats AOSP based?

Realized the theme i was using was PA and CM10 so i switched themes we'll see what happens now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cordell12:
most CM10 will work, even more so if they have the AOKP in title

.

getting there (battery light) ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] indyssee:
I've been able to consistently produce hot boots by just browsing the Xbox smart glass app using both LK (with and without stock voltages) and KT747. I only have to browse for about 1 min before it hot boots.

I'm downloading the test build now and will let you know if it fixes the problem. I'm with you though that it seems to be ROM (AOSP) related because I get them on all the ones I've tried. Also, I can run LK on ICS with no issues.

Edit: I still get the hot boots on test build
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jgrimberg1979:
I am getting hot boots with the k747 as well. Has happened in a few different apps?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bailey1:
Is anyone getting very weak 3g signal on this rom? Lte is great but anytime i drop 4g i get at max of 2 bars 3g next to an iphone4(gfs -.-) full bars?

Ive also noticed my phone randomly maxes the cpu max to 1900 even though i change it in performance and set on boot.

Sent from my CM10 Galaxy S3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] evolishesh:
I'm not sure about the 3g and 4g,but mine was having same problem with being over clock to 1900 mega hearts. All I did was install the modified slim bean gapps and it helped with the over clock.. I hope this helps!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bailey1:
Weird, when i came from cm10 thats what i installed and am still having the problem. Guess i could flash again see what happens.

Sent from my CM10 Galaxy S3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bailey1:
Yeah still getting the random cpu max increases and even decreases. Kind of sucks for battery life when it bumps to 1900, but overall rom still very smooth.

Sent from my CM10 Galaxy S3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
my bad for not getting back to you sooner but i wanted to make sure i recommended the right one for you...

honestly KTT47 found here plays very well with this ROM. give it a go, lemme know how that works.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bishop0114:
Could this resolve issues with Bluetooth? This ROM is great but Bluetooth has connectivity issues and at times reboots the phone. Overall, the ROM seems pretty stable until I use Bluetooth.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
i cant replicate the bluetooth issue at all. my wife and I are both running the rom right now.

we have it connected to my maxima, the bmw 525i and my wives xterra. all ok. sound quality is on point and all.

maybe the kernel helped. :confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bishop0114:
I updated the kernel and will see if that fixes it. Thanks for the feedback!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
not a problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bishop0114:
First time I connected to Bluetooth, within seconds, my phone did a warm boot. I reset the phone and tried to connect to the Bluetooth. It showed connected but would play audio through the phone speaker. After a while, it would disconnect and then reconnect, like it was out of range.

Any other suggestions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] oryanh:
Long time lurker on XDA, but wanted to leave my rock for a post worth my while... This ROM is superb. I've tried all the JB ROMs between the three S3's I play with... and although your decision should be governed by feature set and is more preference than performance. Slim Beam is very well done. A lot of effort has gone into this ROM... only a hand-full running JZO54K...

The best kernel for this ROM seems to be KT747... CPU Gov: ktoonservative is worth a look, its home grown and gives me an all day charge consistently (with 3hr on screen)

Slim and KT are hard to beat.

Thanks dev.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
same thing i said. thanks for the confirmation!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] indyssee:
OJust wanted to add to the praise. I had posted earlier about how the Xbox Smartglass app would cause a hot boot (and so does the regular Xbox Live app), but other than that, which also happens on other AOSP Roms, Slim has been great and the real dark aio is exactly what I was looking for.

I do have a question but its only slightly related to Slim. I was on Slim and flashed to Eclipse to test the Xbox app (hot booted), and after making a backup of Eclipse, I lost my IMEI. So I odin'd to stock and recovered IMEI and restored Slim. After the restore I had data at boot, which I have never had on any AOSP ROM (ever!), and it lasted the rest of the day.

After a full charge, I no longer have data at boot and have to toggle it, which its fine after that. So here's the question: anybody have any clue why I would have data at boot for just that time? I rebooted a bunch of times because I couldn't believe it. I'm in a poor 3g area but data is fine after its toggled. Regardless, great job Cordell and will donate soon.

Edit: derp... answered my own question. Leaving it on LTE/CDMA has data on boot and CDMA only does not. I use CDMA only for the fewer data drops... sorry for the waste of space :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] foreverinpanama:
I have a question I know is going to make me look like I learnt to run before crawling.

For the life of me I can't figure out if there is a way to change the default save location for screen shots taken via the power menu, nor have I ever found any other screenshot apps that take screen shots this way.

I want to default it to my external SD. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PureLife90:
I have just a quick question about 'Fast Charge'...

I'm running the latest Slim rom with KT kernel and I was wondering if fast charge will hurt my battery and how exactly does it work?

Will it work if I activate it and plug it into my wall or car charger? I just never heard of it before until I flashed this rom...

Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cordell12:
I appreciate you guys stepping up and helping each other out. Been pretty busy with work, we had a guy quit so until he is either replaced or they lower the workload for my area me and another co-worker have to pick up the slack. Makes for a good check but takes a good chunk out of my day. Don't worry though, 2.9 is still in the making ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fawkiPhone:
Im using KT747 and I have the governor at koonservative lowered min. CPU to 96. And its given me great battery. I often times loon up at the battery status and am like wait I think my battery percentage froze..

Instagram Question

Heya everyone - I mostly lurk here, most of the stuff you guys talk about is waaaaaay over my head, so I lurk - I read and try to learn. But I recently rooted my VZW S3, and a few days later installed SlimBean, and I love it.

But I am having issues with Instagram. When I pick a picture to upload, and crop it - starting at the next screen the picture starts blinking. Not the whole screen, just the picture. It will stay on the screen for a second or two, then vanish for a second or two. It makes using filters and such VERY hard. But I am able to use filters (as frustrating as it is), and when I go to the NEXT screen, everything seems fine - and yes, the pic actually uploads correctly.

I tried rebooting, and I uninstalled and reinstalled instagram. But the problem remains. Any ideas?

Also, real quick - I am gettin old, so the smaller print due to the DPI is a bit rough for me, what is the default DPI for the S3 - and what would be the EASIEST way to switch back to default DPI?

Take care,

Rob
