As far as i know it's not in settings at the moment. Idk if Krarvind has any intention of adding that feature.

just curious, why do you ask? is 2gb not enough?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stevehkim:
lol. 2 gigs is plenty bud. I don't know why but I like to see how much ram is being used. And it was convinient to have there. But no biggie.

On 2.8 is there a way to disable the notification light when charging the phone?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] JoshReuben:
Followed the ops instructions and the upgrade from 2.7 to 2.8 was flawless, with the aio upgrade. Then flashed Ktoonsez 10-22 kernel and all's running great.

So far 2.8 is running more stable and loving that it remembers my settings again for the hardware key backlighting off and others. Great work!

Google Now

Yeah both me and my lady are having issue with Google now so I don't think it is device specific (she has Toro). Google now acts like it is not installed. It is not in my app drawer. I got it working last night by flashing everything again but after doing to Slimsrealdark theme it disappeared again. Not sure if its an issue with that or not but just a warning. Thanks for all the Devs hard work. Still my favorite ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] prbassplayer:
Gnow zip was updated last night. I suggest you download it and reflash it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stevehkim:
Love the rom only problem is when I'm typing the letters on the keyboard go crazy. Some letters dissappear, some flash off and on. I've tried a fresh clean install 3 times. Wiped everything even my sd card. Tried re downloading twice. Same thing happens over and over. Anyone else see the same problem?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] prbassplayer:
Nope. Stock keyboard?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stevehkim:
yes. stock keyboard. running ktoonz kernel slight oc and slight uv. min/max 384 to 1.6
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] prbassplayer:
Well I'm using stock keyboard right now with no problems (except me being slower than with my swift key). I also use ktoonz kernel no oc/UV but I doubt that could be the problem.

As crazy as it sounds right after flashing the new Gapps I lost my IMEI settings lol. Lovely... least I have a back up.

Texts

Is anyone else having a problems with not receiving text messages and multimedia messages? I had one of my friends text me 6 hours ago and I still haven't gotten it. I'm also having a problem with the alarm not making sound when it goes off. Any solutions?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stevehkim:
Check apns for mms. Make sure mms is listed under type. In alarms go into settings choose your ringtone and hit the volume button.

SGS3 JB 4.1.2 Ktuned Kernel
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] JoshReuben:
Be sure to read the op carefully so as not to flash the wrong one. To go with Slim 2.7 JB, you'll want Ktoonsez' "ROMs BUILT ON OR AFTER 10/14 AOSP JELLYBEAN"

Wipe cache, wipe dalvik, flash kernel, then wipe cache, wipe dalvik, fix permissions, then reboot system. Works silky smooth for me. Adjustments to governor and scheduler, voltages, etc, can all be made from Ktweaker, which installs as an app automatically with the kernel. ktoonservative governor is amazing and will save you battery with no noticeable performance drop on Slimbean. Also, ktweaker allows you to adjust the haptic intensity, and activate swipe-to-wake, among others. It's awesome!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Tyler.Boston1:
Could you explain what apns are? And will that also help with me not recieving any text messages?

Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kylboy06:
I did a search and couldn't find anyone having this issue. I seem to be having two seperate issues. First of all, I have 2.8 installed, and the AIO addons. The first issue is with Google Now, it works great with most commands, except the "call" command, it will call people in my contacts only, and before, I could tell it to call a restaurant, or business, and it would look it up and call it if it wasn't in my contacts. Now it searches the contacts on my phone only. The second issue is that every part of the Play Store works, except if I am in Music, and choose a song, it force closes every time. Just wondering if anyone else had these issues, not complaining, just found it odd that I didn't have these problems in earlier versions. Also, thanks to all the work on this rom, it is my daily driver, and could not be more happy with it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cytherean:
Yes, it sure does.

Have a look at the official page here (http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/112-supported-device-list-cat/182) and make sure to read the OP and follow all the instructions to the letter.

Happy Flashing!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TheArtist8:
Ahhh beautiful. I've been trying to find an actual forum for my version but can't seem to find it anywhere. I guess most of the devs are in Europe/US.

I haven't been able to find another ROM for my phone apart from SlimBean

This section (AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III) is for your phone. If you live in Canada, you wont have a different version of the s3- unless you imported it from asia or something

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] finneginsfast:
Can anyone else comment on their LTE availability with this Rom? I've been using a network monitor and seem to get a significant amount fewer LTE connections than on stock. I still get them but nowhere near as often, tried other modems as well, same result. Just wondering if anyone else is noticing the same thing?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TheArtist8:
Lol I did, don't worry.

Thanks for looking out for me tho ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Heisenberg420:
Anyone figure out how to disable the charging led?

This ROM really runs amazing my phone. Battery life is unreal and its super smooth even with battery friendly kt747 settings.

So right now the pros out way the cons but I leave my device plugged in all night every night. Id just prefer not to have my led on all night and potentially start to degrade the brightness as I'm sure the led was not designed to be on for 12 hours everyday.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] finneginsfast:
I wouldn't be too worried about lifespan of the led. Typical life is 50,000 hours, meaning you'd have to have it be lit 24/7 for nearly 6 years to get near the end of usability. I know, it's more annoying than anything though isn't it? :D
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Wond3r:
DO NOT WORRY ABOUT THE LED. period.

I am having my clock in the notification bar freeze on a time and can only be fixed with a reboot.

Anyone experiencing this? or know of a fix
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Heisenberg420:
I'm sure that stat is for Light-Emitting-Diode LEDs used in displays, not the led light.

None the less, im done looking for a solution. This is like the 10th time I posted about this and I've pmed 2 devs and no one seems to have a clue. I'm willing to look past it to run this amazing ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Wond3r:
That is also a light emitting diode. An LED is an LED. The only way it will degrade or burn out is if its faulty. It hardly draws any power and lasts for a ridiculous amount of time.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] baconatorXVI:
Lol, just put some tape over the light, that turns it off right? Ha!

No need to bother with software and such... Lol
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Heisenberg420:
Finally a solution, tried it, worked perfectly!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] finneginsfast:
Anyone?

When battery goes below 15%

I have red LED on if battery goes below 15%. Annoying and kills the battery even faster.

Im trying to disable lte, dialing *#*#4636#*#* causes settings FCS and launching phone info app causes settings fc. And I can't change the network mode setting. Clean flash
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Wond3r:
:eek:

Why are you doing that? there is an LTE toggle in this rom and I use it. Or just go into the network settings and choose the other option aside from LTE
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] amgpower63:
I don't think it works with att. Only for Canadian carriers
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Heisenberg420:
Yea the lte toggle doesn't work for me on at&t. And like I said network mode wont let me select another option besides lte.

And when I select the hspa APN it won't connect to anything...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] blk_jack:
I'm in the opposite boat. I can't keep LTE selected at all, it always resets back to WCDMA preferred in Mobile network settings -> Network Mode. Not only that, but when I go to *#*#4636#*#* it FCs because the code calls the wrong Activity. As a work around, to get to the *#*#4636#*#* menu go to Developer options -> Device information.

Like I said, my issue is LTE isn't even listed in Set preferred network type (from that menu). I think it might have to do w/ the fact that I'm using an unlocked AT&T SGS3 on a Canadian network, but from everything I've read, I should still be fine.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Heisenberg420:
I get com.android.phone fc trying to get to phone info in dev options

Any idea why I can't change my preferred network? I change it to wcdma and it changes it self back immediately.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] prbassplayer:
Known issue
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Heisenberg420:
So is there any way to disable lte and force hspa

Disable it on the Toggle?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Heisenberg420:
Toggle doesn't work on at&t, still on lte
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Threezees:
I'm in the Pittsburgh region and LTE is just fine. No difference from stock.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Dimarini:
I have noticed this as well. Sometimes I just use the toggle to turn off data and then on again and it connects to LTE right away.

Has anyone had issues with Instagram after upgrading to 2.8? I upgraded from 2.4 and cleared all necessary cache before my install.

Description:

When I try to edit photos (either sent from Gallery or taken from Instagram itself), the image blinks away or it just shows the UI of Instagram. Every time I choose another effect, the image may or may not reappear.

I've played around with the DPI settings but that doesn't affect anything.

Updated to 2.9 today.The flickering is very bad with this ROM. 2.8 rocks probably will go back till this is resolved.

Also is there way to get Picasa Sync working with the 4.1.2 packages? Seems that 4.1.1 works fine for sync, but not so much with 4.1.2.

Perfect otherwise and love the ROM.

Help with DATA please

Hi Guys,

I've been struggling with this for a couple of days now, I've done some searches and I have not been able to solve my issue.

I've been losing my data connection intermittently and my speed on speedtests are so low that I feel like i'm on my old Motorola (I had LTE). I figured that I must have messed something up along the way but I only noticed it when I did a CWM backup to upgrade from 2.7 to 2.8. I ended up going back to my backup of 2.7. I've done the factory reset and wipes/formatting system for 2.9 and my data is still not working properly.

I am with Bell, APN seems to be set correctly:

APN: pda.bell.ca

Proxy: web.wireless.bell.ca

Port: 80

(no issues with messaging when I've got data)

My network mode is set to LTE/GSM/WCDMA and of course Data IS enabled.

Mobile Network type is currently listed as LTE:13

Mobile Network state: Connected

My Phone number: UNKNOWN

There is an IMEI number showing but I have not checked if it is correct (not sure if I need to) as it does recognize the Bell network.

I guess I've missed something simple but I just can't figure it out and it is killing me. Oh, FYI - I have tried to a couple of other JB roms and the data issue is persistent across all of them, so I know it is my phone/setting and not SlimBean.

I NEED HELP, SOMEONE PLEASE!!!!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] baconatorXVI:
I'm sorry to hear that, if it's not software related it's either your hardware or your cell tower near by.

Check your apn. It's on the back under the battery, or on your original box.

You mean IMEI?
