How can I disable the CRT effect?

I searched the thread and Googled it, but what I found didn't work.

Added setprop debug.sf.electron_frames 1 to build.prop, but it didn't disable it.

Is there a solution?

The problem with it is that it does not respect brightness, so even with low brightness and/or screen filter enabled, the CRT effect flashes at full brightness, which is quite annoying at night or in very low light.

I mean, realistically, the retro effect seems as out of place as strapping a Model-T hand-crank on a Ferrari.

Disable all animations in developers option, 1by1 one of these will disable crtoff
[Galaxy S III General] phlashb4k:
I'm having horrible issues if somebody could please help I'd really appreciate it. I flashed CM10 about a week an a half ago. Everything was great until last night. Randomly after restoring a previous backup I was unable to save any APN settings and the current ones I had on there were deleted.

Like after I go into the APN settings and put down the information and hit 'save' it just goes back to a blank screen with nothing set.:confused:

Just an added note when I flashed from stock to cm10 my APN settings stayed the same. Is that normal?
[Galaxy S III General] donalgodon:
That works, but it's a pretty dirty solution. Isn't there any way to disable it that doesn't require turning animations off entirely? :(
[Galaxy S III General] DSA:
just mod your services.jar and remove the crt effect completely
[Galaxy S III General] 2n2u:
Using camera in video mode for the 2nd time caused my phone to crash with cyanogen logo, had to remove battery. Did any of you experienced the same issue? (I'm using build 20th March)
[Galaxy S III General] pickandwhammy:
You had a bootloop? And removing the battery fixed it!? I don't think I deserve to be called an engineer any more.
[Galaxy S III General] donalgodon:
I don't know how to use apk tool to modify services.jar, but if I figure it out and modify one, will I be able to use the same modded services.jar after each new nightly?

I wish the check-box would be included to turn it off like it used to be.
[Galaxy S III General] DSA:
possible depending on what gets updated

but if you can mod it once, doing it again will be a breeze - just repeat your process (copy/paste code)
[Galaxy S III General] tommihut:
Ok, sorry.
[Galaxy S III General] 2n2u:
I think I didn't explain myself well. The "bootloop" or whatever you call it, happened after I tried to use the camera in video mode the 2nd time, if you think this is normal behavior, maybe you aren't an engineer at all. At least on my stock ROM that never happened ;)
[Galaxy S III General] donalgodon:
What status bar battery mods are compatible with CM 10.1?

I'd like something a little easier to read the percentage on than the stock blue circle. It's numbers a bit too small for my eyes.
[Galaxy S III General] pickandwhammy:
@donalgodon: You could actually create a patch and commit it on gerrit - even if it isn't merged into the build (for whatever reason), you can always build with your own custom source.

Haha, no my engineer comment was because bootloops don't resolve themselves by rebooting (hence the name). A "bootloop" occurs when you get to the bootanimation screen but your homescreen never loads. It usually happens in case of corrupt /system partitions (like no-wipe installs of significantly varying ROMs).

Also, if you can't reproduce a bug, there isn't much people can do about it - the scenario you've provided so far is "open camera, switch to video, record. repeat. bug!" This is unfortunately not going to reproduce the bug 99.99% of the time (maybe even more) for anybody. It's quite likely that the reboot didn't even happen due to camera but some other fault, like an OS-level deadlock.

Last, but not the least, if you're missing your stock ROM so much, there really isn't anybody stopping you from flashing it back, mate :)
[Galaxy S III General] DSA:
or this ^
[Galaxy S III General] 2n2u:
Where did I state that I miss stock ROM? I just reported a problem that happened with me, and asked if anyone had the same problem. You know that's how the things evolve, when people report problems and someone is willing to fix them ;)

I already translate everything, it just need copy-paste on correct gerrit

btw I found a small copy-paste error (I think): https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andro...ues/arrays.xml

theres 3 lines of "<item>@string/pref_camera_picturesize_entry_5mp</item>" in a row (lines 161, 162, 163), is this correct?

EDIT: and I found another mistake too, the i9300 -front- camera is 1.9mp but the max resolution supported on CM is 1.3mp. Someone can enable 1.9mp resolution?

[Galaxy S III General] donalgodon:
Not really. You can fully-adjust the brightness level settings. To me, CM 10.1 is far better than stock. Everything is just getting better and better. I seriously doubt I'll ever return to stock at this point.

Hi everyone,

Just wandering what are the current issues with CM for the i9300:

1. I saw there are some BT problems. Can someone please elaborate?

2. Is wifi tethering working with a password or not?

3. Any other bugs?

Sorry about these question I just couldn't find the bug list and I'm under the weather...

[Galaxy S III General] Eddiemc:
Because you didn't search or read up on this at all. It's a new feature, there should hard to miss this by searching.. Basically it has to do with security and you can turn it back on in development settings:)
[Galaxy S III General] Zatta:
It hasn't vanished, you just have to look under development options somewhere. It is disabled by default now for security reasons. When the phone is on lockscreen you can't reboot to recovery at all from the powermenu. Security security.

[Galaxy S III General] scoobyjenkins:
1. Bluetooth works for me transferring files between this and other devices but I believe others have had difficulty using Bluetooth in the car

2. I have been unable to get any tethering working (wpa, wpa2, open or BT), connecting is fine but no data will transfer. I actually tried the leaked Sammy 4.2 and enjoyed tethering but started to feel a bit sick so had to return to CM.

3. I know others have trouble with camera but it works fine for me since updating the firmware (someone kindly posted a zip that luckily matched my camera) and I use the Huawei camera (someone kindly posted an apk) which also works fine, is a little quicker to take a photo, doesn't freeze up on display after a selfie (front cam) and lets me store pictures on extsd.

So, I'd say barely any issues, just a very smooth rom that I'm happy to sacrifice tethering for. But if anyone has been successful, please share any details that may be of help!

Tried flashing the new recovery with mobile Odin but it says no partition detected wtf? Is the file corrupted?
[Galaxy S III General] bala_gamer:
Mate follow this. Either simply downgrade the firmware from a samsung rom. Or

1.download latest fi02(GD or ZD depending on your model) bin file attached in this post.

2.extract SlimISP.bin

3.copy it to System /vendor/firmware

4.now depending on your camera model rename the. Bin file to SlimISP_GD.bin or SlimISP_ZD.bin and replace the existing file

5.fix permission

6.reboot

7.now your cam should work.

@codeworkxx

attaching the latest camera firmware files slimisp.bin for both GD and ZD versions of camera. Hope you can add those files to cm10.1 builds :)

is that ok?, and what are the newest values? im using latest nightly
[Galaxy S III General] donalgodon:
You should flash the XXEMB5 modem as well. Matching is generally better, though not always possible, but in this case, the XXEMB5 is the same for both the RIL and the modem.
[Galaxy S III General] lukaaa47:

Is it better to keep the default CM10.1 ril which is XXDLIB and change modem accordingly or is it completly ok to change the ril and modem? Thanks
[Galaxy S III General] svetloslav:
Bluetooth works flawlessly for car streaming of calls and music. It only looses connection when you move to a distance from the car stereo of about 3 to 5-6 meters depending on conditions. That seems to be an unresolved problem for the time being due to lack of sources.

---------- Post added at 09:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:54 PM ----------

I might be wrong, but I doubt you will find a XXDLIB modem, so your only option is in the opposite direction. My modem is XELLA and at first I was reluctant to downgrade the ril especially since everything was working so smooth. Than once I updated to the following nightly after March the 14th, I noticed that the phone after reboot took much longer before establishing the radio signal with the base. If I matched the ril the problem was alleviated and as a bonus there was a marginal improvement in overall connection quality. So matching the ril is at least partially a necessary step.
[Galaxy S III General] oae08:
Yeah well but im saying this because the opposite happened. I had emb5 baseband and all was fine but when i installed mb5 ril too, now it takes more time to find signal. However when it finds signal its normal again. But for example i switch between 2g and 3g. Now it takes morr time to find the signal..
[Galaxy S III General] pickandwhammy:
There is no technical evidence of requiring matching RILs and basebands, try searching online. Whatever people tell you here, it's completely their opinion.
[Galaxy S III General] donalgodon:
Has anyone noticed problems using Google Now to search? It seems like the mic isn't picking up the speech properly.
[Galaxy S III General] kamalmawa:
Are you saying samsung modify RILs between ROMs/modem just for fun ? nobody knows what Samsung actually changed, since those files are closed sources... but when I did my testing with my T model on 850 band network I noticed a huge improvement of data speed & switching between H & H+ with matching RILs... it might be not that noticable to other networks but it definitely did for me... the guy who you replied to didn't do much testing with other modems etc..
[Galaxy S III General] pickandwhammy:
No I'm saying modems are what matter: they determine connectivity because that's actually the low level code that communicates directly with the radio chip. RIL is simply an HAL for Android to access the radio layer. In my opinion, as long as the RIL is "compatible" with the radio - i.e., the interfaces present in the RIL are understood by the modem (which will naturally happen with matching modems and RILs), it's good enough.

So, I'm not saying that matching is pointless, I'm just saying it's not always necessary.
[Galaxy S III General] kamalmawa:
Thank you..This I have already explained in RIL thread... some people just lazy to read a bit..from my experience usually changing modem have an effect on finiding network signal don't think ril have much effect on it... I'll stop here since this is CM discussion thread not Modem/RILs
[Galaxy S III General] RohanAJoshi:
Guys, here is my experience..

I m from india, 16gb model and have bsnl network..

I was using temasek cm10 with temasek kernel..

With default modem i didn't get as much battery life as others get, and also 2 to 3 network bars.

So tried kernel tweaking uc, uv etc..

Little difference but not up to.

So got bbs and checked that my l2_hsci wakelocks are too much when screen off.

Then i jumped to modem and ril testing..

In test i found that XXELLA modem(with default ril wich comes from cm) giving best battery life, full 4 bars of network and very few l2_hsci wakes..

Then i matched Ril to XELLA and again same too much wakelock while sceen off and 2 or 3 network bars..

* here matching RIL cause battery drain. *

Till day before yesterday i was using XXELLA modem and cm ril.

Yesterday I read that new XXEMB5 giving good battery life.

I flashed that modem and checked, unfortunately it was not good to me, same too much wakelocks by l2_hsci and low network ..

After that I flashed same XXEMB5 modem with matching RIL, and surprisingly its gave best battery than XXELLA modem..

* so, in this case i m getting best battery by matching RIL *

here is screenshot of yesterday's battery drain.

0% battery drain while screen off till 7 hrs.

Btwn, i knw that its offical cm thread..

Sorry for speaking about unofficial stuff here.

.

All thanx To CM.
[Galaxy S III General] pickandwhammy:
Just FYI, CM doesn't ship with modems, they remain what they were on when your device was on stock. If you hadn't flashed any other stock ROM, your modem should have been what is stock default in India (assuming you bought it there).
[Galaxy S III General] nicesoni_ash:
I am having the same problem, I will try to flash yout attachment. Btw can you provide me more info about where did you get different modems and ril for cm10.1?

Thanks.

Edit:

Oh, its a screenshot.. Can you provide me that modem to flash?

So if I flashed a custom rom based on stock rom, that would change my modem, right?
[Galaxy S III General] scoobyjenkins:
There is an XXDLIB modem, I got one from Perka's stash. I've found very little difference in changing modems and matching ril but I like the idea of matching. However, some matches seem to cause problems!
[Galaxy S III General] pickandwhammy:
Hmm, that's a good question, I don't know. Have never used any such ROMs.
[Galaxy S III General] RohanAJoshi:
Yeh, thats what i want to say, Some DD modem which comes with India firmware.

---------- Post added at 03:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:45 PM ----------

1.Here you will get all modems and rils

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=36143326

2. Depends upon rom, some stock roms comes with modem some not, basicaly its mentioned in op post..

Modem will flash on different partition, thats why its optional for toms

But every rom comes with ril cause ril files in system partition.

Everytime we flash rom, system partition gets formatted, thats why every rom must hav ril

Cm doesn't comes with modem.

My environment in details :

Fast dormancy off, cause i m on 2g network.

Data off, cause i use wifi.

Brightness automatic.

Location off, sync off.

I think my Mediaserver consumption was due to Spirit Radio. I listen to it 1 hour and a half per day, and no Spirit Radio showed up in the battery consumption. I guess Mediaserver includes Spirit.

03/23 CM update causes no sound in call, as a previous update I mentioned in this thread. I will skip this update once again :)
[Galaxy S III General] RohanAJoshi:
For no sound in call, just make any sound after rom flash, best way is enabling lockscreen sound..
[Galaxy S III General] TheMrCaveman:
Don't have this sound issue @ all is this not rill related?
[Galaxy S III General] RohanAJoshi:
No, its related to sound..

After new flash, We need to make any sound before making call..
[Galaxy S III General] ptiloubar:
You were right. I faced a similar issue on a previous nightly that was not related : it also lead to no sound in call, even when playing a sound beforehand. I misjuged the problem, thanks ;)
[Galaxy S III General] MF88:
i have some questions

1- i'm on omega Rom, but when i switch to Cm i don't see my internal SD Card

maybe b/c the extfat format or something i don't know.. how to avoid such problem before i install cyanogenmod?

2- i'm confused about gapps, i don't see photo sphere present among camera options

and when i use 1080p in video recording the ratio becomes 3:4 not 16:9 and everything looks stretched, how can fix this ??

thanks :)
[Galaxy S III General] ptiloubar:
Usually, the internal storage is not exFat-formatted. The external may be, depending on its size and maker.

For your second question, there is no photosphere on GT-I9300. That is normal.
[Galaxy S III General] RohanAJoshi:
1. Maybe you want to say you can't see your internal storage data.

If this is it, then cm10.1 create new directory for your internal storage.

In 4.1 internal storage = data/media

But in 4.2, internal storage = data/media/0

.

So, use any root explorer and get your data from media, cause in 4.2 all your data will be on media/0.

Check that you doesn't has one "0" folder in the first "0" folder. That could happend if you flash back to a 4.1.2-based ROM without moving all files to the original folder.

Maybe sounds a little bit complicated but it isn't!
