Sudden screech

Hi XDA!

I recently updated to PA 4.41 and using the latest Googy Max 2 kernel, and I have this strange bug that I wonder if anyone else has happened across. Basically, while listening to music using my earphones, whilst I am just browsing the web on chrome, or reading an eBook on Aldiko, there will be a sudden loud, high pitched screech that nearly deafens me every time it happens. This randomly occurs, and I am not sure of to recreate it, and I am not sure how to make a log, and I don't know if this is a ROM specific thing or my phone acting up. However, i'm leaning towards the sound engine of the kernel, as this has never happened to me before on PA 3.60 (the previous version I had before updating to 4.41). Would anyone please provide their insight/experiences if this has happened to them, and if it has, any known fixes.

Thanks!

I've got the exact same issue.

Did a clean install of 4.6 beta 4 and i've had issue since flashing.

Now on Boeffla 2.3a omni and issue persists.

nice rom tho. :good:

update:

light flow from the play store appears to have 'fixed' this.

the led still does that weird initial blink when the notification first comes in but then the led works as it should.

if i remember, i'll report back here if it stops working / keeps working properly.

update 2:

lightflow workaround still works a few days, and plenty of restarts on.

just make sure to configure charging and battery full states in lightflow or it makes charging lights turn off when screen is off.

Hangouts sync issues

Anyone experiencing sync issues with Hangouts? I am using the latest beta as well as the latest GAPPs. When I use the desktop hangouts app, messages don't sync right away, and when they do, it only syncs the messages I received, not the messages I sent. In most cases, messages don't sync at all.

I tried signing in and out of the app, clearing app data, uninstalling the app, and re-downloading off Google Play, and still the error persists. I also tried deleting the said google account, and add it back again, same results. On my tablet, this issue is not present at all.

Well, the good news is that I fixed it. I did a wipe and fresh install. And it was fine. But I figured what was causing the issue too.

So after setting my phone up again, I went to enable the Dynamic Status Bar. And voila, the stuttering and lag begin again. So I don't know whether I had configured it wrong or its bugged, but that's what the problem was.

Thanks anyway.

Capacitive buttons

Hello all,

I have been using PA for almost half a year now on my GS3 I9300 and I absolutely love it. It was my first custom ROM and now I don't want to go back to stock again. I didn't have a single major problem with it but there is something that bothers me. Why do the capacitive keys light up every time I touch the screen? It's annoying, especially when I'm reading something and scrolling at night. Are they supposed to be like this? I don't remember how they behaved on stock but I just watched some youtube videos of the S3. It seems like they were like this on stock before Jelly Bean. On Jelly Bean they seem to light up just when you touch them. It would be nice to have an option for this on PA as I don't want to turn them off completely.

Thank you!

Hi there,
