Dkp kernel but I usually use ktweaker. Just tried out dkp. Its not bad. Here's my undervolts. Like -150 but I changed them all going to dkp so its all over the map.

How's performance with -150?? I find that anything over -50 especially on the top end things get less snappy

It really depends on your processor. Some handle low voltage very well while yours seems to not handle undervolting very well. I can usually go to - 100 without any performance lost.

I doubt your battery life was a glitch, though when you flash new roms and kernels, it can take a few days for your battery to calibrate correctly. There's several battery calibration apps in the play store, these will help speed up the process. Make sure to change your i/o scheduler and governor to something more battery friendly too. Noop is one of my favorite schedulers for battery life. And for the governor I usually have it on ONDEMAND, simply cause it gives me performance when I need it, and doesn't when I don't need it. Hope that helps :)

GPS

Hey guys,

I've tried reading up on this but haven't found anything. If i missed it, please redirect me.

I flashed PAC 4.3 with the GAPPS listed in the OP. I have a sgh-i747m (rogers). The rom works great except for one little thing. The GPS can't lock on. Keeps saying looking for sat.

Is there a fix for this?

Like i mentioned, if this question is redundant, my apology!

Cheers

does anyone know about the Nightlies, is it possible that at some point you need to do a Clean WIPE. because after playing with Task650 and then reinstalling the newest nightly 10/01 the Brightness Slider is working, and also I am notice the Boot Animation is also working ... TEST continues

feedback please .... did the new nightly fix these by coincidence or the Clean Wipe

You don't have to use exposed for that, just go to the setting under PAC man and chose lockscreen and then turn on "minimize lockscreen challenge." There also used to be an option there for unlocking with a long press, but I don't see it there now :(

I don't mind responding. I usually try to help a lot of people out. I see it as my contribution to the devs. Help the community so they can keep focused deving.

I always do a Clean flash because I have seen how these roms are made and run. It's so easy to have issues if you dirty flash. I like it clean personally. Usually in every OP they recommend a clean flash but say to dirty flash if you want to, unless specified otherwise of course. I have never tried aokp backup but I would assume it shouldn't work because this has bits of aokp but not actual full aokp. The coding would be different. That's my theory
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SkyboneNoya:
Just go about it as usual. Titanium Backup has never done me wrong. And as long as you have you're original stock backed up to the computer its no problem.

Going through the configuration process once in a while allows you to see what features were added in. Dirty has been working fine for me lately:cowboy:.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kirbymaster101:
Especially when you had problems like me, with Final Fantasy games not working and the status bar not showing up plus the constant reboots every 5 mins. Its good now after clean flash. Just Titanium backup and Nova Launcher backup layout saves alot of time and the only thing I really have to mess with is the configuartion and widgets.

May I ask what configs are useless for an s3? Like I think the naviation and ribbons options are meant to be used for softkeys or am I wrong?

I constantly flashed everyday so that could have been the problem. If you're getting alot of problems with the ROM like I did, I recommend to clean flash as long as you use a program like Titanium Backup to backup and restore apps. Heard Helium backup is a good alternative, if you dont wanna pay for batch restoring for Titanium Backup
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SlothlyDX:
Ribbons are amazing. Basically they are gesture launchers. Like swipe left and swipe right ribbons are just like the appbar option but better in my opinion. I love ribbons.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kirbymaster101:
Not sure if its the ROM or just my phone, but it randomly rebooted and all my saves got WIPED. Although the apps are still here, any of them I launched, has their save cleared away.... This has never happened to me before in the 2 months Iv been using PAC rom. Oh well, good thing I still got a titanium backup.

Bluetooth

Please don't spank me, I've done lots of reading. I love this ROM, and have been using since the inception. Since about the 28th nightly, Bluetooth will only connect intermittently, always drops after minute or two. Connecting in my car, always was fine before. Any thoughts?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jdagreek:
I've done a clean wipe and installed the last three of the nightlies independently with all clean wipes each time ...

I have about 280 program also installed ...

if I go into Hybrid and change the dpi where it needs to do a soft reboot it gets stuck on the boot animation ... trying to reset the phone it seems stuck ... I then go into recovery and try to clear dalvik and cache reboot and it seems like it is going thru the apps and then when starting apps it stalls then I see it continue to register more apps after it states starting ...I go into recovery a few more time and clear cach and dalvik again and then it does boot ...

but it is replicatable if I change things and the app wants to soft boot

Ribbons are GREAT, I wanted to try using Appbar since it seemed fast but Appbar seems to be unstable? I don't know why both of these are in the ROM seems redundant.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SlothlyDX:
My suggestion would be to use the hybrid before you restore everything. Also are you using a theme? Make any changes like different kernel or undervolting?

GPS

Hey guys...

Still getting a gps problem after re-flashing (clean). can't get a lock.

What information would you like to have to help me fix this? I love PAC but its the only thing keeping me on another rom... I use the gps daily...

(never reported a possible bug before)

I've tried all other 4.3's and didn't have a gps issue...

--- Flashed latest nightly and gapps from OP.

any help would be great, thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SkyboneNoya:
Anyone can get 3 days not doing anything. Although yes, wifi/data off. Just sounds crazy to let them stay on. When I really need them, I use Tasker for sync.

Battery stats doesn't supply correct music play time with power amp either. I was listening for a few hours. Either way.. MEDIA SERVER is the bane of androids existence.

This is my problem. Dirty or clean flash it stays there eating my battery after I've played music. 40 to 50% battery gone to it. It's a wakelock loop or something. There's hints about corrupted music but there's also hints at it scanning photo, other media as well.

I'm using .nomedia files in most of my folders to keep the scan down which was another option. Rebooting seems to work for me.

On another note, does anyone else notice the bugs in trying to use this forum with chrome or the supplied browser?

Chrome locks up trying to download nightlies and sends you down or up the page about 3 times before you get the downloads screen.

The supplied browser won't let me upload attachments and has some other bugs that I didn't bother to remember.

Do you update every nightly ?

Don't you get annoyed re-entering all you ROM settings every time ?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SlothlyDX:
1. No I update every like 3 or if I see something real good to update for.

2. No, I like setting up my phone everytime. I usually change it too but their isn't much to setup either? Is very minor really as long as you backup stuff where you can and use the nandroid backup app. It helps a lot.

3. I flash multiple roms a day sometimes for testing purposes and have gotten used to it.

4. I can't live with dirty flashing. It bothers me a whole lot to flash over another build. Maybe it's OCD but clean means less problems no matter what.

I've been using kt747 for months and I would never switch. You do have to flash it each time you update but it's worth it. Make sure you rename /system/bin/mpdecision if you decide to use the ktoonservative governor though, as this prevents high battery drain.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] luc.highwalker:
From my experience, you don't have to rename it since your on an aosp rom. Though I haven't used that kernel with this rom yet. But you should be good.

And if I understand your question correctly, it's a sort of bug where the governor tries to access a file that doesn't exist. Which basically makes the kernel constantly check for that file and causes the battery to drain dramatically. (this is an educated guess and I've never looked at the source code for that kernel. So take it with a grain of salt, but that's basically what I think causes this drain)
