I didn't read thru the whole forum but I am running a pacman build from a nice dev and it is fantastic. Showed some guys today and got my bud with a nexus on it. I had to send him my mms.apk because his build didn't included the ability to change bubbles and colors like my build did. Its extremely nice and battery is the same for me as a good sense ROM.

There's another fix, you have one go into paranoid settings and select apps and superuser, then go all way to the right and uncheck this box

Congrats on getting into Team Pac-man Strike. :cool:
[HTC Rezound] Superm@π:
He accepted?
[HTC Rezound] jon7701:
Go back a page and he says that he is an official member of Team PAC-Man. Unless he said otherwise in a later post i missed.
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
Anyone running this, I found a fool-proof way of fixing the Superuser display issues. Open /etc/paranoid/preferences.conf in an editor. Delete any line containing "com.noshufou.android.su". Save and reboot.
[HTC Rezound] Edvard_Greig:
This ROM sounds quite cool- for those that are testing with it, will it have the same BT Headset issues the current AOSP/AOKP ROMs do?

Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
Unfortunately, yes. I'm using the same device trees as in the other AOSP ROMs, so all of the device related issues will come with it. I know we have someone actively working on BT right now, so I'm cautiously optimistic that we'll see something on that front.
[HTC Rezound] SynisterWolf:
BT will get fixed, its just a matter of time. chad is focused more on getting jb working 100% or close to it without having to use ICS parts.
[HTC Rezound] stkiswr:
I couldn't say about Bluetooth headset but I can Bluetooth files no problem to other phones
[HTC Rezound] SynisterWolf:
bt calling is what doesnt work if im not mistaken.
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
Yep. File transfers and A2DP audio work fine. It's just in-call audio that doesn't work. The current theory is that it has something to do with noise cancellation not getting disabled correctly.
[HTC Rezound] Superm@π:
GPS lock issues anyone? Also, issues with echo both ways during calls?
[HTC Rezound] agentofchaos:
For the longest time my GPS would say I was off the coast of west Africa LOL. and for some reason it randomly started working .
[HTC Rezound] stkiswr:
No problems here but haven't tried my navigation yet
[HTC Rezound] Superm@π:
No west Africa but this all daaaaaay loooong! Also, echo during calls is consistent and will not stop.
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
I haven't noticed any call quality issues. That should be the same as CM10. For GPS, I always install this patch with every new ROM install. It's the same one that's in CounterShrike.
[HTC Rezound] Superm@π:
Thanks for the zip! I will try a superwipe 10x and a reflash and maybe that will kill echo.
[HTC Rezound] Edvard_Greig:
Thanks! I've got plenty of faith that you guys will figure it out, just wasn't sure how this ROM was being put together. Keep up the great work! :highfive:
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
Minor update in github today to fix the Superuser display issue. I haven't been able to figure out the MMS dark theme issue yet.
[HTC Rezound] jon7701:
Ill probably repo sync later and then let it build over night. Then flash tomarrow. :cool: Thanks again strike for getting this to work.
[HTC Rezound] Superm@π:
Has anyone found a fix for the GPS lock-on issue or am I the only one having this problem?
[HTC Rezound] stkiswr:
I'm sorry but mine is working fine on my build. What recovery, firmware, and soff? Just curious. Trying to get info to see
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
Been working fine for me. Used it today.
[HTC Rezound] Superm@π:
Latest firmware, S-off, and AmonRa. Weird thing is I just nandroid back to ICS (paradigm) and GPS locked on right away. Back to latest pacman build.....nada. Its got to be something obvious in just not seeing.
[HTC Rezound] stkiswr:
Official or the 2nd global leak. I dunno. I running the last leak firmware and use a 6.0.19 touch cwm I think. I really haven't had any issues.
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
Just a note for those who are building this from my repo, if you've built before, make sure you delete you .repo/local_manifest.xml and run another repo sync before you build again. I switched over to Snuzzo's jellybean source in the dependencies.
[HTC Rezound] jon7701:
Strike are you going to add chads ION changes to your github? :p
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
It might be a couple of days. I'll work on it some this weekend and get it booting, and if it all works out, I'll add it as a new branch. I'm not going to merge it in as the main branch until the camera issue and video tearing Chad was talking about is fixed.
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
Going to be pushing to the branch vigor-ion later today.

Word of advice, if you want it to boot, you need to find the line "CONFIG_MT9D015=y" in kernel/htc/vigor-3.0/arch/arm/configs/vigor_defconfig before you build and change it to "# CONFIG_MT9D015 is not set". You'll either have to stop the build after the dependencies download, make the change and restart the build, or just go in and change it while it's building but before it gets to the kernel.

Also, if you've built before and are using the same build directory, 'rm .repo/local_manifest.xml', run a 'repo sync', and run a 'make clobber' before you try to build again.

I'll post a note when I have the branch uploaded. Will be this afternoon sometime.
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
Ok, guys. vigor-ion branch has been pushed with zero support or guarantees. I built it and flashed it and it working, but I haven't had much time to do anything with it so I can't comment on performance or anything else much. Just like Chad mentioned in the dev thread, the cameras are still pretty FUBAR'ed. The FFC doesn't work at all and the rear camera is tinted purple.

If you build, pay attention to the notes in my previous post. They're important.
[HTC Rezound] jon7701:
I'll try building when I get home. Also do the pictures come out tinted as well?
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
Yep. They look exactly like the preview, so it's not just an overlay issue. Oso thinks it's something reasonably simple though. Hopefully, Chad and Oso can knock things out pretty quickly now.

On the plus side, it definitely seems smoother. Gonna run it a couple of days and see what's up.

Edit: BTW, if the rear camera issue gets worked out before a general release, I'll distribute a new test build to testers at that point.
[HTC Rezound] jon7701:
Hey strike i got a quick question. Why doesnt JB run as good as ICS even though both of them ran on PMEM and it takes us getting ION to make performance better?
[HTC Rezound] Obaterista93:
I was curious about the same. I had assumed that JB without the triple buffer would perform the same as ICS but that isn't the case.
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
That's more a question for Chad or Oso, but my assumption is differences in the architecture of the OS and kernel.

I just wish I understood enough to help out with some of this stuff. The rear camera issue is my only major sticking point right now.
[HTC Rezound] jon7701:
Also when i try to do a repo sync with your vigor-ion branch i get "fatal: manifest 'default.xml' not available

fatal: manifest default.xml not found" I know what the issue is i think but im not sure how to overcome it.
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
repo init -u git://github.com/shrike1978/PacMan.git -b vigor-ion
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
EARLY ALPHA! NOT A DAILY DRIVER!

This is compiled with ION drivers and kernel.

I offer this with no guarantees and absolutely no support.

If you want the Paranoid Android settings app (control of the tablet and phablet mode settings), you'll need to get ParanoidPreferences.apk from an official PA 4.1.2 release, as I'm not including it here. Put it in /system/app with the permission rw-r--r-- and reboot. The ROM will still work without it, but you won't get all the features.

Known bugs:

Front facing camera does not work

Rear camera is tinted purple

Tearing in video playback

Bluetooth calling does not work

MHL/HDMI does not work

Additionally, I offer no guarantees that anything else works as it should, and at this point, I'm not really interested in hearing bug reports. Until the device JB support is up to par, there's not much I can do on a ROM level to fix most things you're going to encounter.

Basically, if it breaks anything, you have been warned and you're on your own. If you want a supported daily driver, this is not where you want to look.

If you still want to try it out, here's the link: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390248398092763198
[HTC Rezound] stkiswr:
Finally people are starting to post up. I have tried a build with ion and vsync but it didn't seem to run as well as the older build that had no ion implemented. I haven't tested your build but this is just my opinion.

There are two builds I have been using that work perfect. One build the video recording doesn't work on and YouTube HD doesn't work but there is no video tearing on standard. The other build has some video tearing but camcorder works. I wish they were mine I would post them because they are very stable for me. I used one build for 2 weeks with no craziness.
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
If the camcorder works than it is an ION build. Additionally, you will get full audio function of Netflix videos but bad video quality and tearing. Unfortunately, although video recording works, attempting to play it back crashes.
[HTC Rezound] stkiswr:
I have a build from the end of November that's def not ion. It records video but it looks stretched while recording and it plays back normal. Has a little tearing. I ran that build for a few weeks and could watch you tube with minimal tearing and all worked great. No HD YouTube. Just standard.

I been in talks with the same dev that sent me am ion build and I truly can't see the difference. The non ion build ran great for me. The camera took great pics. All the basic stuff I use has been working for quite some time now. I own more than this rezound and project butter is very smooth and fluid. I dunno if ion is supposed to offer that type of feel and if its not then I am misjudging then new builds then because I am making the wrong comparison
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
ION definitely feels smoother to me, but ION is not Project Butter. It's one part of it, but there's more to it that hasn't even been touched yet.
[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
Shouldn't it be camcorder works with pmem but not ION?
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
Yes lol :p and also not with older kernels

If I use Sync Manager to transfer photos off my PC will it resize them to the native size of the phone's screen or preserve them. Seems unnecessary to store photos that are a much higher resolution and 1280x720. I guessing it doesn't.

I believe you have to switch it to global, but because it doesn't have tmobiles 1700 band, you will be restricted to edge speeds.

Of course it's 5V else it wouldn't be USB compatible.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vintos:
here are 2 interesting articles about usb otg:

http://www.edn.com/design/communications-networking/4346710/Understanding-USB-On-The-Go

http://www.maximintegrated.com/app-notes/index.mvp/id/1822

I haven't read them but i suppose the voltage must be 5V and the current can't be more than 500mA.

As far as I know all the usb devices are 5V ±5 %(at least the ones that are bus powered).

Even usb 3.0 is 5V but it can provide 1.2A.

A lot of them have an internal regulator which provides a 3.3V voltage to the circuit but the "external" voltage is still 5V.

It's not a matter of the battery, what voltage can be provided.

Battery has a certain capacity/charge.

It's a matter of your circuit, what voltages will be available and up to which current.

I think it's not so simple to measure the voltage/current of your usb otg device, with just a multimeter.

You need to create a circuit to be able to do this.

I hope I am not making big mistakes, in my considerations :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TonyBigs:
A DC to DC converter is used. I suspect that the question is related to the 3.3VDC of typical flash memory vs. the 5VDC output of USB.

i need to change the screen digitizer on my mytouch 4g SLIDE

i already have mytouch 4g so i was thinking if they have they have the same digitizer do you guys know?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Tgrable:
So let me start out by saying this. When i purchased my phone in the top right corner their appeared to have been a air pocket in the glass. It even had a small bump feel when running your finger over it. Well took the phone back to best buy the next day and they wouldn't replace it. Took it to sprinr for the 14 day return, but they wanted me to pay a restocking fee and would not allow me to swap for another galaxy s3 best they offered was a evo lte. So i just decided i would have to keep this phone.

I put a otterbox defender on it, which thankfully covered this little screen imperfection so it wasnt seen. Well i have now had the phone for about 3 months and today i dropped it from the couch(about 18") to the floor that is carpeted. It hit on the corner which is well covered by the otterbox, yet when i picked it up.. the screen has a few big cracks in it running from that little air bubble that is still easy to tell has been there forever.

I took the phone to sprint and they want me to pay the 150 for insurance.. Despite their being record of me complaining about this air bubble the day AFTER i purchased the phone. They refuse to fix it, or replace my defective product. I have called sprint to no avail.

I have proof that it has been like this since i got it. I have pictures and the phone still is proof it was defective, yet sprint refuses to fix the issue.

What are my options? I feel paying the 150 for insurance is bs. There is no way anything but this defective screen would have broken from 18" onto carpet in one of the best phone cases you can get.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DizzyMP:
I would try calling customer service rather than in store, and whenever you hear the words "I'm afraid I can't do anything for you" reply with "Let me speak to you supervisor." It may not work, but the keep making noise, the squeeky wheel gets the grease.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mulhiny:
I think you're screwed. Sucks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Speedin07si:
What this ^^^ person said.

You should of kept going at best buy or deal with Samsung directly.

Sent from Pluto.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Sunsparc:
They should have swapped it on the spot the first time, no fee involved. The only time you have to pay a restocking fee is if you return the device or you swap it for a different one. If you're doing a defective swap, no fee.

Also, it's covered under the ESRP (service plan) portion of TEP, not the ERP (insurance) portion, which means no charge to you. Take it to a repair center and they will exchange it for you.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Aersaud:
Correct. I work for sprint corporate and this is the correct policy.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Tgrable:
No correct policy would have been to replace it the day after I purchased it and took it to them for a phone swap to a non defective gs3. However they seem to have just told me whatevercto get me out the door. Also corporate is responsible with some research. Me buying from best buy is the same as buying from any sprint store since a lot of them are 3rd party themselves which is exactly what best buy falls under.

Direct words from sprint last night. That where I purchased it does not mattef as long as it was a authorized sprint retailer.

I should be hearing back this evening from the supervisor of a supervisors supervisor supevisor. I think everyone at sprint is someones supervisor.

I will update this thread as things unwind.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ripley6:
Yep this.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DirtyShroomz:
Sprint cant and will not fix any phone with physical or water damage. If it was broken it should have been replaced or returned within 14 days otherwise you agreed to keep the device despite the condition it was given in. Sorry for your luck. An over/short/damage order should have been done for you from the beginning. Being that it came from Best Buy you would of been directed to them within 14 days as Sprint is not responsible for their inventory within the trial period.

Incorrect. Any physical or water damage is not repaired or replaced for free.

Did you read your employment contract? Sprint can kick you out whenever they want.

Why you are enforcing their policies so much?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bsanto9:
I think what makes me laugh the most about this situation is when you call sprint ask them what you should you do. Well they explain to you go to you nearest sprint repair store so they can look at the hand set. So you do and you have a sprint "tech" who knows absolute crap about phones and there way of taking care of you is, "sorry call asurion." They'll fix it for you. I'm sorry sprints store and some of over the phone cs is a joke. And those who defend it have no idea what customer service is. I don't care if samsung made it or not . Why is it other companies who don't make device they sell have no problem to take care of the problem for there customer base. Verizon prime example all I do is call cs and explain the problem and have another device sent to me. I
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Speedin07si:
I've never had a bad experience with Sprint cs or any in store fixes. 45 min and I either have a fixed working phone or a replacement on the way.

But that's only for software issues not physical damage.

Pretty clear if it can't be fixed in store they have to turn it over to insurance claim.

Honestly sounds like your just butt hurt because Sprint is standing their ground on their policies and procedures.

If it was a issue when you bought the phone you should of returned it within the 14 days.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bigdreco:
For the insurance protection we have thru sprint.. what do they cover if they wont fix a broken screen anymore.. and when did they stop because have taken in the touch pro 1, the TP2, and the EPIC 4G multiple times. And they all were rooted.. Some even with water damage.. from things like screen wont come on.. keyboard not working and even a cracked screen.. and they fix it wit no problem and dont charge me anything. Luckily I havent had to take my gs3 in yet.. but my girl has the galaxy nexus and they wont fix a little crack on the screen.. so my question is what do they fix and should I keep the full insurance or just pay for assurion since more then likely thats where they gonna send me any way

Because they make up costs through ridiculous monthly pricing. Pick your poison. You want cheap rates and free phones after YOU break it too? Entitled much aren't we?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bsanto9:
Entitled much how do you mean I pay a large amount off money as do a lot of us why should I have to pay another 150$ for a new phone when I should be able to just walk in have a tech a knowledgeable one look at my phone see the problem and help me resolve it. What use is a tech if that cannot not fix my issue at hand. I mean I pay for insurance that is supposed to cover those costs of repair at the store level as well. I mean the logic is dumb!

---------- Post added at 11:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:08 PM ----------

Correct I have called Verizon multiple times when I had my galaxy nexus due to the insane purple screen issue it had at low brightness. They would ask me a few questions verify my info and send me a new phone whether it was a refurb or not, is irrelevant but they sent me something. None of this go to sprint "repair" site have a "tech" look at it and they will take care if my issue. I mean really and then they have the balls to ask of you want to take a survey asking if you resolved your call. Well of course I would love to! I'm sorry but those defending this as acceptable is beyond me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DirtyShroomz:
What makes people think phone insurance is any different? Health, car, home, etc all have deductibles. Half the people complaining about phone deductibles didn't even pay the retail price for their phone why should a company give you a free replacement for a device YOU broke? Anything else Sprint fixes free EXCEPT water/physical damage. That's entitlement.

Just so you know, the reason its all done at stores is because Sprint was losing millions a month sending devices to customers for free as replacements for devices that had no issues. So now your claim must be verified by a store tech before any replacement is offered.

Also, stop comparing one companies policy to another. They're different companies. Because one does something doesn't mean the other company has to do it to. They all have different ways of handling issues. Verizon can give you free phones because you pay more and get less. Nothing on this planet is truly "free".
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ooxteme:
Bottom line is if what the op states about the air bubble is true it should have been taken care of no questions asked. As for the free replacements who knows... under the one year warrenty (which ever company that sells a a product with a warrenty) should be able to honor that said warrenty. When these companys begin to sell certain products they also say hey we'll sell this but we are aloud to return 20% or whatever % as defective from the factory. Did he crack the screen? Yes bit after the bubble was already documented. best buy should have done a swap right then and there because of the air pocket. Its called customer service which imo best buy is really begining to suck at...
