When ever i reboot my device i see a red exclamation mark on the left top corner. Is it something i have to worry about?
[Galaxy S III General] zeli9:
It indicates your device is rooted... it used to be a yellow triangle on SGS2... so no worries, mate :)

EDIT: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2011728

Some are saying they see this even on stock ROMs.. very strange, I always thought it indicates a custom ROM is being used. I've seen it only when I've rooted my phone, I didn't see it on unrooted stock ROM.
[Galaxy S III General] Ciebiada:
It indicates that the custom flash counter is higher than 0. So even if you get back to your original ROM or whatever, the exclamation mark will remain. To get rid of it you have to use paid app from the app store called Triangle Away.
[Galaxy S III General] zeli9:
Actually I think it's not so straight-forward since I flashed the stock ROM yesterday (was trying to get rid of the camera bug...) and I believe the red exclamation was not there... it only appears when I flashed custom recovery and CM. In either case it's not something to be concerned about unless you are bringing your phone in for warranty repair...
[Galaxy S III General] qpidtheloveman:
Thank you developer for such a beautifull rom. I would donate but I have no credit card, I've never owned one. This is the best ROM I've used to date. Kudos.
[Galaxy S III General] cammel:
It actually indicates that you have a custom kernel or recovery (only on latest bootloaders).

If you have a stock sammy firmware with the counter at a higher number than zero (let's say 1, 25, it doesn't matter actually) BUT the stock samsung kernel and recovery then the red exclamation mark will NOT appear. As soon as you install CWM, Philz, TWRP or any other custom recovery you will see that red exclamation mark appear at the top left corner of the screen.

So when you're using CM roms, you have a custom recovery and a custom kernel (and custom rom of course), so it doesn't matter if your counter is at zero when using cm10.1 (actually it is impossible to use cm10.1 and have the counter at zero, it will alway be 1 or more), that red exclamation mark will appear unless you have an old ICS bootloader.

Hope this helps...

camera issue

OK, last-ditch effort with the camera bug.

I really hope codeworkx can help here.. Attached is the logcat, the issue starts at around 15:47...
[Galaxy S III General] NOFATCHX:
Hello..I'm trying to install latest nightly on my S3 which currently is on Original samsung Jellybean 4.1.1.

i rooted it. then when i try to flash the cm10.1.zip file...it says signature verification failed. What do i do??

Also i tried to install the TOUCH Recovery from the link provided in the OP via Odin...it failed...can anyone please guide me
[Galaxy S III General] oae08:
What recovery do you currently have? I advice you flash Philz recovery, its very good and then full wipe and flash cm 10.1 latest nightly.
[Galaxy S III General] tsangaris:
A general question: Is it better to flash the latest nightly or the latest experimental version? I have to choose between cm-10.1-20130603-EXPERIMENTAL-i9300-UPDATE9.zip and cm-10.1-20130612-NIGHTLY-i9300.zip and although i have read the changes on the logs i am not sure what to flash..

Thanks!
[Galaxy S III General] FordT:
Always take the latest and greatest. Chances are that the stuff from the latest experimental already went into the nightly (if it was good).
[Galaxy S III General] tsangaris:
Thanks a lot!

Hello all my friends in xda..

I need help here, im a newbie one..

I love using 4.2.2 cm 10.1 nightly build, but i think my battery is drain so fast, i was worried to flash any kernel because i had a experience when i was used vanilla rom and i flashed some kernel my s3 is boot loop, so.. My question is can someone tell me what's kernel that can use on this nightly build? PM me or reply.. And im sorry if my question is bothering u.. Have a good day to all my friends in here :)
[Galaxy S III General] nosklo:
Samsung has all the source code they need inside their internal code repositories. They just won't release it to the general ROM developer. But they can do whatever they want with their ROM since they own the source code.
[Galaxy S III General] shrome99:
Serious question: is there any particular, feasible reason as to why samsung doesn't just release the code? Would it somehow be bad for them?
[Galaxy S III General] pickandwhammy:
Nope, Korean corporate culture just isn't very friendly and sharing oriented.
[Galaxy S III General] Moster2:
Maybe they are violating some copy or license rights in their code :P
[Galaxy S III General] blazevxi:
First of all, see if there is any app or activity that is causing your battery drain. It may be a rogue app causing a wake lock.

Secondly, custom kernel talk is generally frowned upon in this thread because any problem could be a problem of that kernel and not related to the Rom itself.
[Galaxy S III General] admin856:
Siyah kernel is compatible with cm. You can try undervolting using stweaks app to get better battery life.
[Galaxy S III General] Trunkam:
I think you are absolutly right.. on the same side i also think samsu is putting a risk a good train..

I mean most of the times people who root and try/use custom rom are the one that drive friends/collegues to a certain phone.

I have been really happy with sgs1 and so i went to sgs3 and drove half of my collegues from iphone to android and so to sgs3.. only bbecause they trust my choice.. but now i'm very unpleased to this fact of closed source.

Obv my next phone won't be a sammy one.

Pretty sure that a lot of people that read and post on xda are in a similar situation.

Sorry for the offtopic but i cannot imagine how cm would be if they had source code .. :banghead::banghead:

[Galaxy S III General] Darius_AWS:
I'm amazed by the stability and the quality of cm 10.1 on my S3. Only thing that will miss me is the touchwizz music player which is an awesome one...all the other "goodies" are marketing arguments and I hardly used them :) ! Also battery life is awesome !! 3 hours and a quarter on screen with heavy heavy usage !!!

Eats more battery than Samsung Poland 4.1.2 for me. And a bit lower game performance than Samsung Poland 4.1.2+Siyah 1.8.4. But other tasks like switching apps and opening apps, it performs way faster. :D

Anyone find that the wifi is eating way too much battery?
[Galaxy S III General] diegoviola:
I got this issue too, is this issue fixed now?
[Galaxy S III General] Qliratu:
This is a really great rom, works really really fast already :D

I noticed 1 think, on build from 13-12 when i had no notification i pulled down the notifiction bar and i had all the switched (wifi, bt, connection, all that..) but on the new release from the 16-12 i have 2 press that button on the top right side.. are not all changed merged in this version?

Been using the 10.1 since about a week (the first build where you could actually call with and didn't had to reboot the phone to hang up :)

I think this version is fantastic, every day new features. For me this 10.1 is much more stable than 10. No reboots, etc.

Thanks for the wonderfull work Codeworkx!

i want to know how i can make akku time more comparable to stockrom xxemc2.

at cm my akku lasts 30-40% less

maximum 12-15hrs with max 2.5-3hrs screen on

on stock

24h with 4-5hrs screen on....

is there a thread for this problem?

i deactivated googlemaps, disconnected google talk and google now

and i only read sms, surf through forums and whatsapp no games
[Galaxy S III General] pickandwhammy:
That's the kernel source code: every manufacturer has to release that, it's licensed under GPL by Google. Besides, the code Samsung gave was utter bullsh*t.

Cyandelta has it's own site where I'm sure you can discuss this. Discussion of Cyandelta is frowned upon in this thread. I know because I've had my wrist slapped before.
[Galaxy S III General] Darius_AWS:
So in this thread we are not allowed to give idea or advice for kernel for CM 10.1 ?

Envoyé depuis mon GT-I9300 avec Tapatalk
[Galaxy S III General] Theshawty:
Well, it is allowed, I think, but if any issues arise, you would not be eligible for support as you're not running official CM and the official CM kernel.
[Galaxy S III General] Darius_AWS:
Yeah but I was asking if cm team projects to change ota updates because it's not very handy to download 200mb every 2-3 days, and cyandelta process is very good as the zips are small (around 20mb) :)

[Galaxy S III General] Theshawty:
I could see how downloading 160 MB every now and then would be painful if you're living in a country where the speeds aren't too great or if you don't have a fast wifi, but I don't think it'll change.
[Galaxy S III General] nadimsoze:
Hi. I my phone is not displaying black correctly, its now more of a greyish blue colour - washed out. I'm coming from teamsek, had this issue since the last CM nightly though. Is it a display setting?

Maybe im imagining it.

EDIT: Poweroff and battery pull fixed it. Reboot didnt
[Galaxy S III General] Darius_AWS:
Might be related to display settings in stweaks...if you still run an unofficial kernel, you won't have any support here sorry...

[MENTION=3208754]codeworkx[/MENTION] - could you confirm that this bug cannot be resolved on CM due to sammy's closed-source HALs?

Have you tried a full wipe before moving from sammy rom to cm rom ? Because as i recall all camera bugs are resolved :)

Not sure, it's not just an isolated incident since others have reported it too, there is no problem on stock TW ROM... just on AOSP based ROMs. Well, anyways, I've posted the log - I just hope someone knowledgable can pinpoint what the actual problem is.

There are only a few Google apps which are actually in the gapps package. Basic stuff to get you signed in and using Google's products. The rest are downloaded from the Play Store.

Google has to actually send over the newer versions of the apps which are present in the package, methinks.

Who you are to say that huh?

If Korean corporate culture is in the way you say, Samsung or any other Korean company wouldn't be where they are right now.

I won't say Samsung is doing its best to give the best experience to customers but still, you can't generalize like that.

Samsung has over 80 businesses worldwide (ship building, construction, obviously electronics, it even owns a university in Korea, etc) and nearly 350000 employees. Those 350 thousand people won't stay there if there were poor corporate culture. And Samsung has less share price problems than Apple (a good example).

Maybe you meant North Korea? Well South Korea is completely different.

Samsung is doing its job, they could do it better but it doesn't mean unfriendly and selfish.

Sorry for completely off-topic post, but I had to say that.

And yeah, I'm Korean and I'm proud.

Relax, it's a company, not some corporate personification of your country. The fact of the matter is, that Samsung has given next to nothing to the dev community which is why we're still sitting on nightlies a year after the S 3 was released.
[Galaxy S III General] Millenium3:
I know, I already admitted that. But that does not make a corporate culture to be in that way.

What I really want to say through that post was to not make them misunderstand that Korean corporate culture is like that. But yeah, Sammy can do a better job.

Apologies in advance: off topic.

Yes, your pseudo-nationalistic angst is very admirable but unfortunately my beliefs are based on observation and not emotion.

People who work at Samsung have to walk through X-Ray detectors, risk getting any unofficial media confiscated, and work on a need-to-know basis, so nobody knows the big picture.

How do I know this? Samsung recruits from my uni, lots of friends there. How do I know this isn't the story everywhere? I work for a product company myself. How do I know it's an SK thing and not Samsung thing? I know people working in LG, Hyundai, etc too, and it's pretty much the same there as well.

I think it was more likely having a full wipe and improvements in the nightlies than anything to do with the Sammy rom. Every month or so, I completely wipe and restore apps, in my mind (maybe placebo) keeps everything feeling fresh.

I have been testing for a while an this is what I feel:

-Very laggy on first boot after flashing. It took longer than usual to get out of after-boot-lag and I had some unusual crashes (one in Chrome beta). This could be due to being the first boot, I guess.

-Very fast on second boot. Apps seem to be loading faster and chrome's slide-to-switch-tab function works better. I think everything is snappier.

I will keep on this rom version for a while and inform if I see something unusual.
