Hey that works! Thanks for the tip guys! :)

No way I can get chinese input on the keyboard? I hate using external keyboards like Go Keyboard etc. They just SUCKS. IMO at least.

Edit:

So I have dug around the XDA forum. I have found ppl saying that you requires a .apk file in order to install chinese input for the keyboard. Anywhere I can find file?

Is there a way to completely disable the led notification? Driving me nuts! Using light flow and its made no difference. Right now it's flashing away due to a missed call and ice cleared the notification!
[Galaxy S III General] nqk:
It was said before, I'm sure, that you should have your camera driver updated if you haven't done so.

1) Flash a Samsung stock rom

2) Follow instructions here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2006128

3) Come back to CM

I have tried a lot and have no problem with Cam now. Only the preview in HD video recording looks distorted.

Is it bad to charge my battery with a 1500 mHa charger instead of the 1000 from Samsung. Does my battery suffer from that?
[Galaxy S III General] donalgodon:
You are asking in the wrong thread. This is the CM thread, not Q&A, but yes, there are potential drawbacks. You don't get something for nothing. Basically, higher charging current heats the battery more and shortens its usable life.

trying to update to latest 20130311 nighty

phone stuck at recovery at update

cannot enter to recovery (update always starts)

how to break update and enter to recovery?

update and fix

than updating in recovery connect phone to computer

using`ADB delete update package

switch off phone and switch on

phone boot in recovery menu

and you can flash any rom you want

sorry for bad English ))
[Galaxy S III General] LenAsh:
Bullmud

You can use a 3000mA or whatever (please drop the inclination to quote "H" it has nothing to do with charge rate it is a measure of battery capacity) charger. It is the phone that controls the charging rate.

If you use a 500mA charger and expect to charge at the phone's 1000mA rate - you won't charge at that - in fact the charge rate will be even less than 500mA as the charging circuit will deem the charger as instable and reduce the rate until it becomes stable. Which principle often accounts for the misguided stating that their battery takes an age to charge...

And yes, this is in the wrong forum.

GPS issues

I have a problem with the GPS, it shows the direction of travel in a different way than it should.

In the screenshot added below, I am sitting in a train facing the way I travel, yet the arrow (from Ingress, also occurs in Maps) points to my right, somewhat behind.

Other times, it shows the exact opposite direction.

This doesn't only happen in CM, but that is what I use now, so I post here.

Any help on this would be appreciated, you rock. ;)

Hey everyone I have 2 questions

1st

How can I change folder icons? (I don't wanna use other launchers)

2nd

Is exynos and brick bugs are fixed in Stock kernel?

Thanks everyone
[Galaxy S III General] donalgodon:
I'm pretty much done with Samdung at this point after getting burned with the defective emmc MCAP erase in the SII, I said to myself, "I'm sure Samdung will have this fixed in the SIII!"

Bam, defective emmc SIII also!

Couple that with no userspace source support, which kills CM 10.1 in all the ways that matter to me (I bought it as a media device as well as a phone, and the signal noise in it with CM 10.1 is totally horrible, with all due respect to the devs.... it's not their fault!)

Any company that supports open source and builds good hardware from now on gets my money. Samdung has failed to deliver on both counts for me too many times.

[Galaxy S III General] guerouig:
I agree with you on defective emmec, but not on one point : what is it with signal noise you mention and describe as "totally horrible"; AFAIC, sound is as good as with stock rom; no noticeable difference. same goes with so many issues people have reported all along the thread like freezing, camera qualitiy, camera FC, chrome, wifi, ..., none of which I have experienced ever since end of feb nightlies. Whilst cm10.1 is not perfect yet, I wonder if we have the same devices.
[Galaxy S III General] donalgodon:
With all due respect, I must question your hearing. I am a musician, and I have years of studio experience on both sides of the mixer, and I know signal noise well enough to know that there's a world of difference between the stock audio system and the CM 10.1 experience that the devs have managed to build out of the crap that Samdung has provided them.

Again, don't get me wrong, The devs did a fantastic job of polishing the turd, and it's not their fault at all, since they weren't given what they need. I commend them for getting it to work at all, but it's just not comparable to the cleaner signal that the stock ROM has. It was the Wolfson DAC that made me decide to give Samdung one more chance.

Get a good set of headphones, I mean real ones, not "Beats" or whatever, and get alone in a quiet room. Study a few tracks carefully, then play them back on both a few times. You'll hear it, unless you just don't have ears sensitive enough to hear it, but trust me, it's there, and I'm not the first person to comment on it.
[Galaxy S III General] guerouig:
thx a lot for your comments and explanation, with musician ears there is nothing I can argue about; I retrieve my own perpcetion, and I'll get a good set of headphones and give it a go.
[Galaxy S III General] Soleo:
Hi,

I am a new user of your ROM. I currently nightly test today. (03/11/2013)

I'd brought my assistance to help you in your development because I love this ROM.

So I noticed that the battery discharges faster and a bug when the keyboard SwiftKey is selected by default in text messages and make phone slow.

I selected the Android keyboard and problem is resolved.

Thank you for your work!
[Galaxy S III General] scoobyjenkins:
Try "Greenify", it's really made a difference for me! Someone here also pointed out, if you convert Google Now from a system app to a user app (using titanium backup), you can greenify that too! Or just turn it off if you don't use it. Google Now and location in maps are known battery abusers. But I am finding the latest nightlies are better for my battery than previous ones. Been great since the beginning of March for me.

I use ultra keyboard (so I can skin it) and have no issues at all.
[Galaxy S III General] ProxyChain:
Well I guess it's good to know the actual recorded video comes out fine. Is the stretching due to missing Samsung source code or what..? I don't recall having this issue when I first got CM 10 months ago
[Galaxy S III General] pickandwhammy:
No I think it's the camera application that's showing an incorrect "viewfinder". It happens with front camera too - try taking a picture of only half your face.
[Galaxy S III General] cink40:
Try Temasek kernel and Boefla app. Sound is better that in Samsung stock. IMHO of course.

Hi All!!

I've realiced that most of my battery drain is because of the MediaScannerService.

Each time i'm unlock the phone i can see the system searching (seem to be into the SD card).

Any way to avoid this?

Thansks!
[Galaxy S III General] pickandwhammy:
I'm a semi-professional musician myself and I agree that S3's audio output (with custom ROMs, I've never used stock) is in fact worse than my old S1's with the WM codec. I use MEElectronics IEMs and though Poweramp does an awesome job, it's not nearly as good as it used to be.
[Galaxy S III General] cink40:
Yes, S1 is better sound wise especially with voodoo sound

For me it works best to rotate the phone 2 times on each axis, but still there seams to be something wrong, hold the device with display down (ok, that is a seldom case, but still) and rotate it and you will see what's wrong.

Hello folks, with the latest nightly i lost the three reboot options into the power menu, any tip? ;)

✉Sent from my GT-I9300 using CM10.1
[Galaxy S III General] KrewsialNL:
I've tried them all...

Well, after being stuck with a flu at home for the past 3 days, I can now honestly say I've tried all available ROMS for the S3.

I'm now reverting to a clean install of CM10.1. There's honestly nothing as good as this (even with its little perks, like camera).

This means all Android phones I had (even my HD2, that eventually got Android) can't get anything better than Cyanogen. :D
[Galaxy S III General] guhvanoh:
The search is weak in this one Obi. Use the search. That and Google help in 99% of cases. Yours falls into that group.

[Galaxy S III General] eseregin:
It is not problem have some not excellence in Camera, but i must say that Battery time on Stock ROM (last JB) better.... I estimate it in about 20% better on stock. This is my IMHO, estimated with good phone load 2-3 hours screen time, a lot of wi-fi, internet, Exchange Push mail, Music about 3 hours a day...
[Galaxy S III General] angus216:
Hi All,

I have a question

when i'm charging the phone and using it at the same time

the battery is dropping, especially when playing games

is it normal or not?

And seems difference cpu governor setting will get difference result

As I remember, stock rom doesn't have this issue

Is there anyone can explain it and how to fix it?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S III General] pickandwhammy:
USB or wall? And is your cable the stock one (Samsung)?
[Galaxy S III General] angus216:
wall

I've try the samsung stock one and a motorola one

but having the same issue
[Galaxy S III General] pickandwhammy:
Connect charger and type "cat /sys/class/power_supply/battery/current_now" in Terminal and check the number, it should be around 1500 if I'm not mistaken. At least above 1000. If it's ~500 most probably your cable is spoilt and its not drawing as much current as it should.

Just to be sure run the command when connected to USB also and compare the numbers, they should be drastically different.
[Galaxy S III General] angus216:
I use a motorola wall charger, the number is 999

usb is only 4xx

I will try the samsung stock one when I'm home later

Thanks!
[Galaxy S III General] pickandwhammy:
So then your hardware is fine, and most probably battery's fine too (meaning it's the stats you're seeing that are messed up). Give the ROM a day to settle down, also charge till 90% and let it drop to about 20% before charging again.
[Galaxy S III General] LegendM:
Bump
[Galaxy S III General] pickandwhammy:
Use themes. Different launchers won't change the icons anyway. And if by stock you meant CyanogenMod kernel, then yes. For more information, check rootSU's thread here.
[Galaxy S III General] svetloslav:
I agree completely. If you spend the time to research, you can have S3 exactly where you want it to be. Plus with the support for external SD it is a joy to upgrade to nightlies, to instal any apps you want after leeching. Than I have on the external all my music with tens of gigs and I successfully use my phone as an audio streamer over bluetooth, which by the way - except for the little bit shorter range compared to stock - is a GREAT experience and sounds fantastic. I don't pretend for audiophile quality, because if you do, than mp3 and portable media players should not be your primary device as a rule. So yes I love my S3 and it will be hard for other brands to cook-in all the extras Samsung has managed to put. Yes here and there better builds, faster specs, but always lacking on other features. So don't be too fast on ditching old Sammy.

Now what seems with the new S4 is that Samsung will be trying to impose (similar to Apple) a closed model where no updates if you bought your phone in another country, which ultimately will kill the sense of getting an international version. That indeed might force everybody to abandon Sammy, so they are getting too big and should watch out for where they are stepping. Once you loose your bling and sexiness, there will be no coming back, like with apple. And nobody in the android world likes impositions.
[Galaxy S III General] pickandwhammy:
This isn't about S3 being good or bad, but about certain elements of non-stock ROMs being somewhat inferior to stock (yes, before you scream, "because of lack of sources"; this shouldn't even need to be mentioned any more). Porsche might be inferior to Lamborghini/Ferrari but it's still freaking Porsche!

The reason there's so much hatred for Samsung in the community is because they've actively gone against the community, which is the exact opposite of the way they used to be. They promised sources and conveniently forgot about it. They released obsolete, old kernel sources which have codes going back to Gingerbread! They have made it impossible for devs to reverse-engineer HALs and libs so we can never fully utilise the camera or the audio codec or the GPU. All this while Sony actively helps the community by contributing to the CyanogenMod project.

Anyway, if you really want to know why @Codeworkx is so anti-Sammy, why don't you read his interview about the same?
[Galaxy S III General] stshhh:
Back to STOCK :) but i can tell you that i miss CM :( ... the reason why i turned back is because of camera! i really use camera a lot, and i like STOCK features! ... HDR on CM was crap! very slow when it shoots! recording a video was also CRAP! on stock while you recording you can use all these feature (shoting photos, touch to focus, colors etc) ... even on battery STOCK is better i think?!... however, CM is better on tasking, faster, smoothie as f*** , beautiful, cool etc... everything was exciting... 10.1 on my S3 felt like the NZT drug (from the Limitless movie) :):):)

i'm dreaming the day when it comes and the CM staff will fix these bugs!
[Galaxy S III General] Theshawty:
Wow, thank you for telling us what we've known for several months. What would we do without you?

CyanogenMod (namely the TeamHacksung division) can't fix squat without assistance from Samsung. Of course, none is given.
[Galaxy S III General] stshhh:
My comment wasn't "a feedback" or "bug report" my friend :) it was just my expression and how i feel about this and that...I have these rights though?!
[Galaxy S III General] Theshawty:
We've had millions of these expressions similar to yours and they're in fact tiring. "this doesn't work" "this works better of touchwiz". You seriously don't think we already know? Hell, the recording thing is even on their wiki, as stated: "Recording effects broken" among other bugs such as the touch to focus with flashlight bug which millions still report.

The CM team knows ALL BUGS!!! Unless new ones arise with nightlies but they get to know them as well fairly quick.

You have the right to express yourself, yes, but sometimes it's better to hold back the expressing if what you're about to say has been mentioned a lot before, which it has.

CM 10.1 kernel UV

Dear friends,

Just wanted to inform you that Temasek's CM 10.1 kernel (based on CM 10.1 kernel) is now compatible with the wonderful STweaks app (open source configurator from the creator of Siyah kernel) !

This means that you can tweak a LOT of things as well as undervolt cpu and memory while enjoying the awesome CM 10.1 rom(s) !!!

Enjoy :good:
[Galaxy S III General] GR0S:
**** YEAH
[Galaxy S III General] scoobyjenkins:
Absolutely. I personally have no beef with the camera, I've got it working as smooth as stock by my amateur estimation! I get a sense here that there are so many variables for getting this rom running smoothly, some within our control, some not. Maybe I'm lucky, but if any aspect became unbearable, I would quietly find an alternative.

[Galaxy S III General] danielalarcon:
Quick update, been trying the latest nightlies, and there still persist a small GUI issue on the power switch bar/panel, this ONLY happens with the auto rotate switch, if you scroll down the notification bar and view the small power widget bar, if you clic on the auto rotate switch, the screen is refreshed, and, if you have the switch after the 6th position, the bar returns to the first 6 viewable elements.

I'm pretty sure there is some redraw in there, wich is completely normal, if I'm trying to change landscape to portrait, or viceversa, but the bar of switchtes should stay in the same position, that is, showing the switch, and without the refresh.

Another question, I notice there a "show dark theme" option in the default SMS app, but it doesn't actually do anything, any hints on this? I uundesrtand that CM is not all about colors, kind of Aroma style, but would really like to see a dark theme contacts/SMS app, to match the Phone/Dialer style, yes, I can use themes, but if I want pure CM look, this would be better :good:

I tried rebooting, also taking out the battery for 5 minutes but that resulted in a discharge and now its at 4%. Currently plugged into my power bank. Help?
[Galaxy S III General] donalgodon:
You could have a bad battery or bad charger or bad cable. After ruling out those possibilities, I'd flash a stock ROM and see if you get charging.
[Galaxy S III General] AaronMichael:
But a bad cable/battery is not possible..well first of all its only a few months old..second the cable looks brand new and the battery issue just started today!

I'll try and flash stock and find out if I can charge when i reach campus...
[Galaxy S III General] donalgodon:
I wouldn't be so quick to rule out those possibilities without at least checking them out. There have been several reports here of bad chargers, cables, and even batteries. No manufacturer, including Samdung, get's everything right in 100% of all cases, as the SDS fiasco of the SIII (and earlier MCAP_Erase fiasco with the SII) clearly illustrates.

Good luck.
