Tasker sure doesn't like this latest nightly. Keeps crashing. Maybe it's a 4.3 thing. Anyone else having issues with Tasker?

EDIT: Actually getting a few random reboots for the first time, like, ever. Gonna dig around, see what I can find.

Just FYI...tried to update to the latest daily via the PAC Console and it downloads the right filename, but it's only 2kb. Using a browser it downloads fine though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Gorwin:
Anyone else try using the 'Gesture' for the screen lock? I inputed the outline of the Pac man, and just messing with it I was able to unlock the phone with a pure circle. So just a heads up for anyone else using it, test your gesture afterwards to see if simple stuff overrides it. I now use a bow-tie which seems to work pretty good.

Something keeps turning up my brightness up. I manually dim it as dark as it can be and then I check later and it's back to full brightness. I'm not using Lux.

Any thoughts or ideas?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] deck82:
Had the same problem with the 9-21 nightly...updated to the one posted today and seems to be gone.

Not sure if the update is even what fixed because I had also changed mine to auto dim for a about 12 hours and did a few reboots and also wiped caches.

Now my manual adjustments stick where they would change when I pulled down my toggles. It was driving me crazy but thought it was something I did until u posted about the same problem.

This is great. A friend of mine just got. No joke, 49 copies of one text I sent him. This seems to be an ongoing issue, sine the other day, he got 17, and a few days before that, another friend got 17. Battery is also draining really fast, and the phone is getting scolding hot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tpike1296:
I haven't been having any of those problems you've mentioned... Any clue when they started and what build you were on?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fearphage:
I can confirm the loss of data (3G and 4G). I haven't found a workaround.

I can also confirm the multiple texts. I think they may be related. I've gotten that before on stock when the signal was really low initially. The explanation is along the lines of it has trouble communicating the state of a sent text so it gets "stuck" sending it numerous times.

I'm also having issues with GPS getting stuck and not taking my position.

I haven't flashed today's build (28) yet though. I hope it remedies these issues.

EDIT:

The loss of data is on the nightlies from the 25th and 26th for sure. Multiple texts have been happening since around the 18th or so.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] trouinky:
+1. All of it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bondosho:
I flashed 28 last night, and if I turn WiFi off, I will not have data (I'm in an LTE area). Since I receive work related email on my phone, I need data, so I'll most likely go back to stock today until all these issues are fixed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Edgardo101510:
Help?

Who knows what is the best build hands down because the past couple of builds have been trash. can someone help thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] trouinky:
Was after 23rd or 24th when things went sour for data. The earlier nightlies were actually running quite nicely.

I get my data back (LTE) on the latest nightly if I switch to this APN...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Edgardo101510:
Thanks

Yeah dude thats what I am on also, on the latest nightly (09/28):good::fingers-crossed:

but i see no change... same stuff:confused::crying:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] trouinky:
The CM 10.2 thread is reporting data problems as well and they solve it by switching to the Sprint LTE entry in the APN list which is what I did to get my data back. Everything else is working fine. No weird sms/MMS issues so far. Stock battery burn rate seems about the same.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] trouinky:

I'm on CM nightly from early September. Everything had worked perfect but I'm bored lol what's a good version to flash
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] trouinky:
Nothing after 9/24. If you're wiping and starting from scratch maybe try 10/1 but no guarantees. There's some recent issue with locking to data via the included APNs that popped up after 9/24. There are solutions but it's aggravating. I've also been having MMS issues with the newer nightlies. Might be APN related, not sure. Battery is pretty good for me even on the buggy nightlies.

Hey,

First of all, fantastic rom. Battery life and performance are exceptional!

I'm currently on 10/1 and everything seems to be working fine. The data issue I had with the previous nightlies up to 9/26 seem to be gone.

One issue (not a deal breaker) is that my wifi only scans the local networks once on boot. When I say leave to the office I have to reboot so that my office wifi pops up same when I get home. Is there a fix for this or should I just 'deal with it'?

Thanks,

Bo

Also, im getting no data on this rom. 9/26 was no good. 10/1 was no good. 10/4 was no good. from searching it seems like this is a pretty persistent issue from release to release.

I am having the same issue. No 4g data connection no matter what I set mobile network settings to. Is there a known fix for this since it's happening on several other ROMs?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fearphage:
For those with data issues (everyone on the latest snapshots?), try this fix

It worked for me so far. I snagged that from the CM thread.

Any of you having camera problems? All my low light pictures are streak-y. I've attached a picture. Notice the vertical lines/streaks/noise in the picture. Is this just me? I'm using the default camera app.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] 88EVGAFTW:
I get this on MOAR 6.0 Touchwiz rom too
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fearphage:
Are you referring to the picture quality or something else?

Is this ROM using the camera stack (drivers and whatever else) from CM?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] 88EVGAFTW:
Not so much the quality but the vertical streaks of rainbow colors all over. I get it frequently

Hey guys. I was thinking if flashing this on my son's s3. Reading some mixed results of 3g/4g loss of signal. He needs a daily driver because he's 11 and needs in touch with me. Is it a Daily driver?

I have it up and going, but so far, I'm still switching from (2g/3g) and (4g) via the APN list in :Settings -> Mobile Networks'... I haven't seen a fix yet, but it works out great for daily.

Are there any 4.3's that aren't experiencing this problem?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] carole6m:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Deeveeance:
To the best of my knowledge, it's a CM based bug, so I think 4.3 AOKP might do it good (if it's out yet for our S3's)...I'm out of the loop as of now haha
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] thearch1tect:
I'm running the 10-6 build and so far no data issues and having to switch apns. Also haven't had issues with the camera thus far with the rainbow streaks like I was before.

Edit: nevermind still having issues with the data/apn
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] huckl3b3rry:
I loaded the 10/6 release and it has the same issue with APNs. All data works fine at first but after reboot it screws up data. However, if you read a few posts back someone gave a solution that involves using the APN backup app and that worked for me.

Another thing I noticed with the last couple of releases is that voice+ seems to be changing your Google voice settings (if your using Google voice for your Sprint number) and unchecking the setting to send text messages to your phone. I had to go into gvoice settings and check it. Seems to stay checked after doing that but something to keep in mind.

Except for those two issues I use this ROM as my daily driver and live it.

---------- Post added at 04:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:51 PM ----------

Fearphage was the one that posted the solution for data. Seems like a lot to do but once you've done it it's easy to load the corrected APNs after a flash.

So first time user of the PAC-Man ROM. However I can't stand these menu animations. No offense to anyone. Just a personal preference. Spent the last hour trying to find where to disable these. Can someone help me out. Really like the idea of this ROM. Been using CM so this definitely has more customization. Just wish I could go back to stock animations so I can look through menus easily.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] carole6m:
Pacman settings - animation controls
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] km00000:
None of them seem to go back to stock style animations. Even when set on default.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] carole6m:
They added animation a few builds ago. Default is the animation you're seeing right now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] km00000:
Yeah went through all the animations. I don't know what are the stock animations. And not knowing when each animation comes into play makes it really hard to configure the animations. I'll keep trying and hoping I (or someone else) finds a solution. Otherwise this ROM is pretty cool. So much to do.

If there is a zip file I could flash that would bring back stock animations, I would love it if someone can link me to it.

Actually it was a pretty prevalent issue, even for myself, during the June nightlies (around 6/19)... I actually just clean-flashed 10/7 yesterday, and the same problem came up... "sys UI has failed. blame tyler." and such...

some people had luck with wiping the dalvik 6+ times and that being the solution, others, like myself, have yet to remedy.

Battery is dropped 21% in an hour and even playing soundclound that still seems silly high

And still stock kernel. Which I dont see lasting long at this rate lol

Just a heads up, not booting after dirty flashing 10/12 over 10/9 after wiping cache and Dalvik. Boot animation just plays and plays and plays.....

EDIT: I was running with KToonz's kernel (8/31) so I reflashed the 10/12 nightly and left the stock kernel and only flashed gapps and I'm booting now.

EDIT REDUX: 10/12 incorporates JB 4.3.1 so custom kernels probably won't work until they are updated. Now to go explore.....

Status Bar Hiding

I'm in the 10/12 release. I admitted dirty flashed from 10/5, but everything is working well (SMS, MMS, Data, etc) so I don't want to do a clean flash for this small issue, but has anyone else noticed the status bar autohiding no matter what you do? I'm using Nova launcher. I have disabled hide in the setting menu. In Nova I can uncheck and then re-check the show status bar option and it keeps it from hiding for a while, but then it goes back to hiding it without me changing anything. Anyone else seen this?

Settings

I have a couple of questions....

1: Is there a way to set settings for quiet time? In a few other ROMs I've used they had it so you could do like a profile that shut LED, Sound, WiFi, etc... off from a starting time and they'd come back on at the ending time (ie: 11pm to 7am ).

2: How can I turn Pie off? I've been looking for the setting even under PIE itself in the Pac menu. I must be overlooking it I guess.

Other than that, I'm very happy with this ROM and have been using the Nightlies for a while and I'm on the 1014 ( current ) and having no issues.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] carole6m:
1, settings- sound

2, pacman settings - pie - trigger area none

I've never liked the Pie thing, always felt it redundant and unnecessary ( that's just me though ) and didn't think to look under sound. Much appreciated!

Anyone getting random reboots or hard freezes lately? I've been getting them since 10/7 I think.

It's a bit more than a software freeze. The state of the phone freezes. So for instance if my phone freezes while it's charging, I can unplug the cable and the light will remain on (as if it were charging). None of the buttons are responsive and the only way to get it back is to pull the battery.

Is it just me?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] trouinky:
I've had a few random reboots as well with the last couple nightlies. Can't isolate the issue. Random with the occasional FCs, also with random apps. Pretty smooth otherwise I can't complain.

Also, APN issue is better, but hand-off between them isn't great. I have LTE access at home and coming back from work (3G area) it switches back to APN that connects to LTE maybe half the time. Again, not complaining, as long as I have data.
