I just installed the ROM on my Galaxy S3 after a long time (last time I used it was when it was updated to 2.0) and it's amazing how good it works :D but stupid as I am I can't seem to find some basic settings.

I can't figure out how to bring up the recent apps list, long pressing the home button does nothing nor double pressing.

Can't find the option to change the battery icon. Is there one or if I want to change it I need to use flash some mod?.

And finally, I can't find the option to enable debugging mode.

Yes, stupid things but for some reason I can't find any of those =(.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loserrahul:
still no mode for battery icon cause its aospa better to use battery widget reborn beta from market..

use another launcher like apex or nova and create a shortcut of recent panels to homescreen or create any finger gesture if u have prime..

tap the build number option 7 times in setting < about to get developer option...

@djabeU .. u cant change grid size with option its aosp Google launcher change to lower dpi to change grid size or change to another custom launcher like nova its better in my opinion for that option

"Clock has stopped" on 2.99

Hi,

First - great ROM (super fast and stable), major kudos to you guys!

I do have one nagging issue after installing 2.99 - I can't seem to configure the alarm clock. When I go to the clock application (directly running the app or through the homescreen widget) and press the alarm clock icon on the bottom left I immediately get a popup with "Unfortunately clock has stopped". Same goes for a fresh reboot (after unlocking the "clock has stopped" popup appears).

I can see that there is an alarm set, but no access to configuring it (adding/removing/etc...).

Any help or tips would be highly appreciated!

Blocking mode

Just installed PA 2.99 and am loving it, been trying other ROMS and its nice to come back. One thing I've been unable to find which I quite like, is the blocking mode, usually in the sound settings to limit the notifications from your phone between st times, unless its not in here. If thats the case anyone have any recommendations for a decent app that will do the same?

phone wont charge while its off jus boots back up

first of all paranoidandroid is the only rom i used on my s3 from purchased day v2.54 and now v2.99,gokussjx keep up the great work.there is one issue i notice so far when i power offf my cell to charge it plug in the charger the phone boots up and when i leave in the power cord and try to power off the phone it boots up again.it seems that the phone wont charged while its power off for some reason
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grevane:
Hi, I've updated to the v2.99 (17JAN2013) ROM and am having a few problems with my external SD card that I didn't have with the 2.54 ROM. I'm using a SanDisk 64GB MicroSD Card.

I dealt with the initial known problem that exFAT file systems weren't supported and had the effect of corrupting the sdcard by formating it as FAT32. That worked fine on the 2.54 ROM and all my applications were able to use and access the sdcard correctly.

Since upgrading to the above 2.99 ROM, the external SDCard appears read only to all my applications (except Root Explorer).

For example, in Titanium Backup, if you set the backup folder to a folder on the external sdcard, it reports that the folder is "not writable".

Similarly, in something like Battery Monitor Pro, I can't put the history file on the external sdcard anymore (I'd imagine for the "not writable" same reason)

However, in root explorer I can create folders and files fine.

Any idea's?

Other than that, the ROM is excellent so far.

EDIT: I've inadvertently fixed my own problem (see below)

The solution to the SD Card Access problem:

1. Using root explorer, navigate to /system/etc/permissions and mount the file system r/w.

2. Edit platform.xml and find the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission (towards the top of the document - not the "shell" permissions further down).

3. Add an additional group definition for this permission --> "<group gid="media_rw" />".

4. Save the changes to the file.

5. Restart the phone.

AW: ParanoidAndroid Q&A

Hi there! Great ROM and just did a fresh install of 2.99 with factory reset and wipes.

Problem or inability on my side: not able to open recents by long push of the hardware home button. Short push will send the current app to the background though.

What I did was to deactivate the glow of my HW buttons, but that's it. Any ideas?

Edit: just read that some other guy had the same issue. So I'm not alone on that one...

Thank you.

I did a complete fresh install of the ROM after a total wipe (cache, davlik, factory reset, system) and reinstalled without any restores of apps or data. I've even tried reformatting the MicroSD card just in case boot records or something got corrupted. No change.

ROM screwed up my folders, can't find anything, adm deleted my posts 3 times, Q&A must be the greatest place to bug report and find a workaround for the system.

/mnt/shell/emulated shows all my files, but /sdcard or any other point does not, and since I can't access /mnt/shell with normal apps, I have a lot of data being lost. I've tried to Google the problem, but no without luck with it.

The data being "hidden" are some folders, every folder that the system did not create, like a folder named Emulators or Series. No files seems to be displaced.

Anyone facing the same problem? Only PA does it, Revolution, AOKP and CM does not.

Just figured out the problem, /sdcard or /storage/emulated, are just shortcuts to /mnt/shell/emulated/0. I have to move the files from outside 0 to it. I just don't know how... Moving by pulling then pushing every single file will take ages. Is there any method to batch move files? Or any way to mount the entire storage to my computer?

I did a search bur couldn't find anything on this.

I am using TWRP 2.3.3.1 recovery and the 2.99Beta9 rom. On previous versions of PA I also used an external to internal SD swap script. For some reason I cannot seem to replicate this with 2.99beta9.

Probably when you change that file the permissions aren't correct - I'd say best not to mess around with stuff in /etc if you can avoid it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c0d3x42:
Right my mistake, i wasn paying attention to the first instruction stating remounting rw. For those that have also overlooked that, i did:

1) start ConnectBot connect to local

2) su

3) mount -o remount,rw /system

then i just vi'd the file.

What i find interesting about this, is that failure to remount /system rw and using a root explorer to edit the profile.xml file causes the subsequent boot to hang. It could well be the permissions are screwed, i did not very that, but you hope that if a root explorer was able to write() that file that it would maintain the permissions.

Unfortunately I've had to switch back to the previous build of PA. The new version is simply too laggy, and it misses some essential features, most notably the lack of the recent apps list on long-pressing the home button. It's a shame, because I do like the new quick settings menu, but it has too many drawbacks to use it as a daily driver at the moment. I'll look forward to a future update to a stable build.

Because you used the wrong recovery, files will have been copied to folders /storage/emulated/0/0/0 (may be a number of zeroes!). You can find them and move them back to sdcard.

No time for step-by-step now, but in ES File Ex, go into settings and set root access, and tell it to allow access to root of filesystem. Then back in ES hit the Up button and you will be in the / (root) folder, from there you can see the storage folder I was talking about.
