I've had a very good experience. I clean flashed in case anyone wanted to know.

These are the

minor

issues I have encountered:

1) Status bar crashes sometimes. (goes away and comes back). But no ibig deal to me.

2) The 'slider' for brightness across the status bar doesn't work. Not a big deal.

3) Adjusting the animations doesn't seem to change the animations. A little annoying but I just turned the speed of them up to 25% in the dev options.

I have yet to have a random reboot and i've been running since yesterday. The stock camera app works fine as well for me so far. I am really pleased with the speed and stability of the rom so far.

Mr. Smurf, you've done a nice job sir. Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ChickenArise:
It seems like my 'random reboots' happen right at or around times when the screen is trying to rotate. I got them frequently when I used the PIN lock (4x4) with lockscreen rotation enabled, but disabling the rotation has led to 0 reboots on the lockscreen since (it was happening 3-4 times daily). It's hardly a bother to me at this point, but there's my anecdata on the off chance that it helps anyone else.

I want the inverted 4.2 GAPPS,can I dirty flash it and it will work?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] thearch1tect:
No you have to use 4.3 gapps
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] zman519:
Hello PAC fans & devs

Dose this ROM or the 4.2 ROM work with PDroid ? I'm looking for a ROM to use it with and it seems hard to find the info or users that have it working.

I found an app called shush that you might like for your quiet times. Whenever you turn the volume all the way down it pops up and gives you the option for how long you want the phone quiet before it goes back to the previous volume. Works great and I use it all the time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] calisro:
just dl the rom and try the auto update tool and see if it gets patched correctly. the auto patch tool will patch the framework for use with pdroid.

Same experience here, on the 10/14 nightly.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] trouinky:
Well I'm not sure what happened, but I was running the 10/17 nightly and just browsing in Chrome, and suddenly got a hard reboot from which I can't recover. Rebooted a couple time and get stuck in the boot animation.

I went back to recovery, wiped cache and dalvik, and I get prompted that all my apps are updating (creating cache for each) then finally "starting apps" and now I'm stuck there. Ugh. I don't know what to do. Guess I'l wipe and start from scratch... FML Everything was so smooth!!!!!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] carole6m:
you can just re-flash the rom. no need to wipe everything.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] trouinky:
Did that several times with no luck, even with earlier nightlies. Had to start fresh. Can't figure out what happened. I didn't install any new apps or anything. Hope I don't have internal ram going bad...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] huckl3b3rry:
I tried wiping completely and flashing the 10/17 w/gapps and it would get through the setup wizard and would get the blame Tyler error. I tried twice with full factory reset and got same result. I wiped again and flashed 10/14 and gapps went through setup wizard and then flashed 10/17. My switching between Wi-Fi and LTE has been perfect. I immediately did handcent and disabled messenger but I haven't had any sms or mms issues, woohoo! I also haven't found any apps that don't work. The only FC I've had were on apps right after titanium backup installed a couple but they've worked fine since. Only been a couple of days but so far it's the best version I've used since the stable release.

Issue - Install 1021 Nightly

I installed the 1021 Nightly, just like always wiped Dalvik and Cache. Flashed ROM, have not updated GAPPS in a while ( Not sure if they've been updated, I will need to look into that ). But after the install was done, it did it's re-initializing of all the installed apps, then came up with the COM.ANDROID has stopped working. The lockscreen showed, so I tried logging into it, it gave nothing but a black screen then restarted and did the same thing.

I'm going to do a Factory Reset, which I hate doing but have no choice now. Then see if it works. If it fails then I'll go back to 1017 and wait for another update.

UPDATE: After doing a Factory Reset it is working fine now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] RTWright:
Focal

Seems as of 1021, the Focal app is included, but because of how it's done, we can't uninstall it. The update on Play Store will not take, claims it's not signed right and to uninstall previous version and install again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] huckl3b3rry:
I still see this issue. I'm using Nova and to fix it I just go into Nova / Look and Feel / uncheck and then check the "Show Notification Bar" and that fixes it for a while. I thought it was more stable after I 10/17 nightly, but it's still happening.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] carole6m:
You can just delete the apk file from system/apps

Was there any issues with MR1 4.2.2 version of PAC man or was it a perfect last release?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] aryehzev:
Im running that one its perfect. I don't like problems so I guess I'll have to wait a bit for 4.3 PAC
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Notorious:
Thanks for the response been tempted for a while
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] calisro:
fyi 10/21 broke my launcher even more.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] RTWright:
I gave this a try and it doesn't work, it said incompatible update. So this goes back to it needs to be either not included within the ROM itself so it can be installed from the store and updated when the updates come. Or make it so that is able to be updated. So this is why I made the report.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] carole6m:
If you delete the focal app from system/files then it won't be in your rom anymore, hence it will not be an update if you install from the play store. I have focal deleted and I just installed from play store with no problem. Also took a picture and it works fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] RTWright:
I did, it didn't, you had better luck then me.

Can anyone make or receive calls on today's nightly (10/27)? When I try, the process crashes.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] huckl3b3rry:
I dirty flashed 1027 over 1017 and my phone would FC. Tapatalk and several other apps would also FC. I then did a full wipe and reinstalled and apps and nothing has crashed yet. I did notice that Bluetooth audio (not BT headset) in my car has some trouble connecting sometimes. Will test other functions on 1027 and let you know what I find.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Papa Smurf151:
Sorry I've been absent in here guys. Just so you know I'm very active with pac. We have been fixing a ton of things. Including the cm FUBAR over the last week. That's fixed and now working on bugs list again. Unfortunately due to issues with the fixes a full wipe is needed for yesterday's build to work correctly. Then u can dirty flash all u wish.(until this happens again). We now support over 160 devices and I over see a bunch of this as well as adding devices, maintenance, servers for web , gargamel on dibs(our build farm system, check website for it), gerrit , going to school, working 50+ hours, planning a wedding, taking care of my kid, having a personal life, as well as a ton of other things. I know I'm not in here much posting but I do read responses and see a lot of others answering them. I'll try to stop in and say hi and help answer when I have a free min.

Well all I am getting when I select to Flash ( Install ) the latest 1029 is "Failed" it will not flash. I have done Factory and Data wipe, it will not install. I'm using the latest version of TWRP and I just cannot get this to work. I'm going to have to go back to an older version. Also 1028 didn't work either, it gives the same "Failed". I've re-downloaded it several times now as well. I'm going to try and download it to my Dropbox from this Mac and see if I can get it from the site itself with better luck.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] sigson:
10/29 works for me both on a dirty flash and a clean flash still has the PAC in black bug though... Anyone know if a patch was ever released? Thanks again for all the hard work!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] deepsix_69:
I has this same problem downloaded both of those multiple times from the console and from the site. 8 kept getting failed. I messed some stuff up and restored a nandroid which took me back to cm. I downloaded the 29 again and it installed first try with everything except internal storage wiped. Not sure what happened.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] huckl3b3rry:
Does anyone else have trouble with auto connecting to a Bluetooth audio device? In my truck it automatically connects with the Bluetooth headset profile just fine but not the audio profile. I can get it to connect by turning Bluetooth off and back on. Also in the last few releases if I turn Bluetooth off or on with the toggle in the main settings screen it doesn't actually change the state. I have to go into the Bluetooth settings page to toggle on our off. Minor thing.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] RTWright:
Well I finally got 1029 to install, it was a full wipe, clean install. Only problem was it developed an issue with the com.android.phone and everytime I tried to answer a call or make one, that would crash and fail. So for right now, I've gone back to my previous ROM.

What ... If any... Bugs does this ROM have. I really love pa. Just don't want to flash if there are bad bugs.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JCJ77:
I've been on this ROM for a mere few hours and I've experienced #3 as well. Regarding the clock, you should find what you are looking for under settings>ROM Control>clock. There are options in there to change clock specific features. One possible bug I noticed on this:

- I changed the clock to "center clock" and then "no clock". After a few minutes of adjusting other settings, the clock would just reappear in the normal location in the upper right corner. Checking the clock settings, it was still set to "no clock".

- One more if I could (I don't want to "hijack" this post with my thoughts, but I noticed on the ktoonsez kernel, I would get a consistent screen flicker...maybe every few seconds or so. I read that it was due to UV settings, however adjusting the settings higher or lower didn't change the flickering. I initially adjusted the settings in Ktweaker to reflect galaxyman and m86s settings for the kernel.

Any help with all these issues would be appreciated. Thanks.

I will be taking over this thread when I release the next build. Thanks for the bug reports. The kernel will get updated with this update to remove the wake lock. The 3g to lte handoff has been fixed on the latest nightly and I will be putting fix into the update. I got my github setup last night for the vendor files. I've gotta pull and new stuff over and add in my fixes and will build soon. Need some time to look into bugs but keep them coming cause the more bugs reported the more I can try to fix.

Two PAC-man v18.0 ROM Threads

Disclaimer: This is not intended to turn into a "this ROM is better than that ROM" post, nor am I trying to cause conflict between developers...I ask this question with honest intentions.

Why are there two PAC-man ROM threads. They are both v18.0. However, they have different dates. This thread is dated 5 Dec 12 and the other is dated 2 Dec 12. Each thread looks to be started by different Devs. Just looking to find out what the difference is, if there is a difference. I haven't looked too hard into the other thread at this point. Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Papa Smurf151:
One is a port meaning the Dev grabbed the built ROM from another forum I think he said the version version and our vendor files were ported over so it works for our phones. This is a built from source ROM meaning it was compiled from source code with all the updates and such all done via source. I have also contacted szl.kiev and ask for permission to be the official maintainer for our phone. So this will get an official tag and entered into the PAC man github as officially supported. I know the Dev that ported the other one has stated that he just doesn't have the correct setup to do source builds which is completely fine. Each ROM has its plus and minuses and it's to each there own.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] RascalDoc:
thanks to all involved for the rom and work. When I heard Team LOTK was taking over I made the jump. I can't wait to see what PapaS and team come up with.

I have a buld from the op from 3 nights ago. Should I flash the 3g-lte handoff fix?

Also... where in settings do I go to turn off one of the sets of toggles? I've been through a couple times hunting it without success .....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] pathtologos:
I believe from what I read a few posts back, the lte handoff fix will be baked into the NEXT build so I flashed it. As for the toggles, u can turn off the aokp ones under ROM control in the settings. Just uncheck all of them. I removed those cuz the other ones are bigger and easier to hit, IMO.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JCJ77:
So, I guess the question I have is why take the time to create a port for a phone (i.e. Sprint S3) based from a ROM already created for the very phone you are creating the port for (i.e. Sprint S3)? Does my question make sense? I'm not a Dev and I am new to the rooting field, so these are probably noob questions.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Papa Smurf151:
I believe but am not sure that the port was out first before the source build. So he maintains it as he wishes. Kbizzle was able to get a source build going and like I said I don't know for sure but is most likely more up to date and doesn't have as many bugs. See the biggest problems that I found with ports is you acquire all the bugs that the original ROM did for a different phone plus the bugs associated with this phone. Some devs prefer ports some prefer to build from source or have the tools to do it. Take a good friend of mine from the evo section Mazda from team dirt. He did nothing but ports. He preferred them. Now Hes moved on to a few different phones and has gotten into doing source builds. Its really apples and oranges.

thanks papasmurf one more bug i found is wifi to 3g handoff i lose data connection i got to toggle airplane mode also.... i tried the new ktoons kernel update but black screen wake lock isnt fixed if anything i experience it more...thanks for taking this rom over i love it over every other gs3 rom i have tried.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] RascalDoc:
I flashed the hand-off fix a little while ago. (It helped a bunch on the last ROM I was on, also an AOSP Rom) I have yet to see 4g in my notification bar today, but data speeds (pictures loading etc) seem to be fine.I just flashed this ROM last night and did not have it set up until this morning. I'm not the best judge in the world as I didn't realize I had a 4g signal I was supposed to be seeing until last week but I had been getting good speed. Before I was on the AOSP Rom I was on a TW ROM and rooted for the two months or so I have had the SGS3.

I was previously on an Evo with an LOTK Rom that flew .....

edit: I flashed the fix at lunch and have been occupied.... I just looked down and have 4g in my status bar....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SwimDrewid:
I flashed this on Monday and have had no data drops when switching protocols
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] pathtologos:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] simply_sme:
I also tried the kernel update, but the black screen wake lock issue is fixed for me. Flashed, wiped cache/davlik, fixed permissions - 100% better. Koonservative gov, mw86's tweaks, bfq scheduler. Maybe with another try?

try rebooting

this has happened to me a few times. rebooting corrected it for me. I made a habit of rebooting after an intial boot any time i flash.

---------- Post added at 11:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:17 PM ----------

tried 11/4 nightly today. Only issues I found were the bluetooth switch from main settings menu doesnt turn on or off BT. Have to open actual BT settings screen and turn off and on from there. BT worked great from car other than that. couldn't add BT to the nav drop down menu

also, all icons on home screen will vanish randomly. it comes back if i add a widget to any screen. i usually remove and add the cLock widget to do tihs.

pretty solid beyond that. going to try 10/30, 11/1 and 11/3.
