Been using the nightly for roughly two days now. I use the long tap on the menu key for switching apps instead of my home button and it doesn't seem to work well like how it does on cm10. Well it works but it's not very practical some I need to continue holding the menu button and clearing the apps with my other hand. The screens have some space at the top and bottom, is that due to the dpi? If anyone has some insight, I appreciate it

Notification drawer gone

Hey guys, greetings from Norway. First I would like to thank the community here for providing answers to almost everything I´ve been unable to figure out on my own and ofcourse a huge thanks to all of you developing :)

I have some with my i9300; the notification bar is gone when the device is unlocked. Problem occured after flashing to CM10.1. No issues on CM10.

Occured after I was fiddling with the settings, but all my efforts trying to resolve the issue is without luck. I also tried searching the forums without luck (yes, I did watch the "You are a noob"-video. :)

Any suggestions?

Best regards

making a phone call doesnt work

Hi,

testing the new build (from the 17 th and 18 th) had encountered a strange problem,

first, good work !

secondly, after a fresh install of the rom 17&18 builds the phone can only receive phone calls, when trying to make a call it hangs immediately (no ring tone).

Tried to use getRIL to update the RIL version to fit the basband which didn’t helped.

Any ides anyone?

now im back to 4.1.2 latest build, also needed to restore all settings and app manualy *restore proccess didnt work using CWM

[Galaxy S III General] *GalaxyDev*:
This ROM is like the best I used and the first nonSamsung ROM it's smooth and almost stable :D but I've founded a couple of bug I don't see in OP so I thought I would post them just in case:

1. When you hear music via headphones and you use the Flashlight the light will blink between low light and high light

2. Well everybody know about the scrolling and ghosting problems and also the black shadows that appears in icons and widgets

3. If I turn off the screen in Landscape the CRT animation will work as if there were two different miniscreens in portrait very weird

4. When keyboard pops up the icons are like out of borders like bad cut.

5. Sometimes network doesn't work and in the browser it gives me a message that the server was not found with tiny letters. IDK if it's my network but it didn't made that with CM10

6. Well my main problem is with the stupid subfolders that don't let me restore to my Nandroid (my solution will be to return to CM10 or ODIN an official software and restore my nandroid from there)

7. Battery is not so good for me...not bad but not the best....apparently the Android OS and a thing named gspsa or something like that is sucking my battery instead of screen.

8. Mobile Data automatically connects even if I disconnect it manually every twenty minutes.

9. Data signals (WiFi, Service, etc) inaccurate and lost of signal frequently

Call

First of all, amazing work. The upgrade from the 16th to the 17th and from 4.1.2 to 4.2.1 was seamless. Only had to reinstall the google apps and uninstall and reinstall some of the google apps and it worked! Great work CyanogenMod team. Bravo!:good::good::good:

I experience the same problems. Moving from 20121217 10.1 to the 18th on baseband version i9300XXDLID I can make a call, but no sound. The other side hears him or herself talking (echo).

I tried to go back to the ROM of the 17th but that did not help. Neither reinstalling the ROM of the 18th. Does it have to do with the fact that the baseband version is not compatible with 4.2.1?

It was in the logcat that i took right after the camera app FC.

It looks like this:

2-18 09:16:33.690 E/SecCameraHardware( 1909): camFW = GDFI02 GDFF03

Where the left one (GDFF03) is the fw that you have in the phone. And the right one is the FW that you have loaded in the camera module.

[Galaxy S III General] sfjuocekr:
I disagree about multiuser being useless, my niece plays games on my phone and opens apps at random (she is two years old). So what happened: she makes posts on Facebook, she locks your banking app, she moves homescreen icons, she removes apps and even removes backups.

So having a second account just for her would be a blessing, as I can hide and lockdown everything I don't want her to-do. I'm fine with her installing new games, taking pictures and whatnot.

It would also be nice to have a separate account for when you let a relative use your phone for navigation.

There are probably some other occasions I could boil up where multiuser would be nice (like friends that like to play Ruzzle etc, because the have a dumbphone).

=====

About 10.1, I noticed some weird "tearing". It looks like no vsync tearing, but it's blocks instead of lines and I have yet to find something good to reproduce it. I notice it mostly when scrolling in the Facebook app and sometimes in Pulse or the browser.

Also the superuser app still has some issues, like repeatedly asking for permission while the app is already in the list of allowed apps and denying superuser access.

=====

I tried enabling multiusers, this works great but it is missing "KeyguardHostView" "user_selector". Syncing the CM tree is a pain on 4Mbit, maybe someone else lurking here feels a calling to port it over from the tablet sources.

edit: User switching doesn't work the android way due to the above. Also when you make a new user, you can't switch out of it. You can reboot to get back in the "owner" account, but then you can't switch to the newly created user.

There is a way to switch users if you change DPI to 192 and trigger the tablet interface, but the widget is still missing. In the tablet UI it shows the users at the bottom, it might be a good idea to use that for the widget?

Admit it, most people cannot afford an S3 and they'll want to check out the phone. I have at least 3-4 people coming up to me everyday to see how the phone is and there are many things in your phone you DON'T want anybody to see. :p

The younger cousins/nephews/nieces are a big factor too! Please don't get me started with app-locking apps. They're a pain.

Multi-user is a boon in such cases. Create an account with all owner data/apps inaccessible and you should be good to go. :)

Yup v sync isnt working. That doesn't cause severe tearing. Causes dropped frames, lag. The tearing we were facing was quite a bit in the first build. Most of it has been fixed hence the change log. I see choreographer dropping alot of frames in logs too and that is what handles vsync .
