I absolutely love what the devs have done to make this ROM possible on the S3, and I have the utmost gratitude for their efforts.

With all due respect, the only thing that keeps me from not being able to use this as my "daily driver" is the audio quality compared to stock, and I am aware that this is due to the lack of proper sources, as we've all griped about in the past, but my question is:

Do you think that update 8 will likely improve the audio quality?

There's considerably more noise in the audio on CM when compared to stock, and if this were resolved, I'd be ecstatic.

I see GT-I9300_JB_Opensource_Update8.zip is there at Samsung's open source site.
[Galaxy S III General] LenAsh:
Yes - but you're 8 hours late.
[Galaxy S III General] lyvyuk:

[Galaxy S III General] SpaceGooner:
My bad. Restored the app with TB and all fine now.
[Galaxy S III General] rosso832:
I'm getting the same issue on a latest nightly. Did you only restore the app from backup?
[Galaxy S III General] BillGoss:
I'm using Google calendar and I've never seen an option to auto-add birthdays. I've always added them manually.

However, I recently installed aCalendar from the Play Store because it supports colour labels and found that it automatically adds in birthdays and anniversaries.

Hey there,

Is charging slower on CM10.1 than stock or is it just my imagination?
[Galaxy S III General] mdfpido:
Google "sync Facebook calendar to Google Calendar". It basically involves exporting your FB calendar and opening it in Google Calendar via a URL.

This for me is the best solution. It's always synced on the cloud, too.
[Galaxy S III General] LenAsh:
Same - CM10.1 uses stock charge settings
[Galaxy S III General] rosso832:
Now it's clear and working. Thank you.

If I'm not wrong, you should activate such option in desktop version of calendar. In addition your contacts need to be in "my personal contacts" group on order to be shown

Add this calendar to your Google calendar (I think you can do this only from the calendar Web interface) :

#contacts@group.v.calendar.google.com

You will then be able to see the birthdays on the phone too (granted you have the birthday set into contact entries, no matter in which group they are... )

I use haxsync to sync Facebook birthday dates with Google contacts :)

Another interesting one is

it.italian#holiday@group.v.calendar.google.com

I think there's one of those for each country :)

[Galaxy S III General] thegh0sts:
i might back up my apps with TB and do a fresh install of CM10.1 to see if the camera is better that way cos i swear there's something in my install of the ROM is causing it to keeping FC'ing even though some people say it works fine for them.

for me it work fine initially then it would FC with the flash on.

[Galaxy S III General] mdfpido:
If people are not lazy there are two very simple solutions to camera with touch to focus FC:

1) turn off flash for first photo, then turn it on for the subsequent photos, but people are lazy and don't want to take that extra step, which leads us to;

2) don't turn off flash for the first photo, but don't touch to focus as well. Just click with the flash on for first photo. Never mind where it focuses. Then do touch to focus with flash on to your heart's delight after that.

No camera FCs for me since I found out the second solution since 4.2.1. But then again, I hardly use flash on such a small sensor. Difference is between night and day.
[Galaxy S III General] jlink38:
Or use a camera app from the play store... I use camera zoom fx and it works flawlessly.
[Galaxy S III General] mdfpido:
Camera Zoom FX for whatever reason can't access the video cam. It FCs. YMMV though. But yes, it is indeed an option if you don't mind shelling out money for something that CAN (using the two methods I just posted) work anyway out of the box.

Change your charger i use my tablet charger and a Galaxy S1 cable and its charging fine before i had the same problem when the phone would charge from 20 to 70 overnight.
[Galaxy S III General] ami2510:
Much slower, I charged for now 9 hours and am only able to get up from 14% to 77% on a wall charger... On top of that, when I use my phone while it's charging then the battery gets lower. And android os is higher than screen in battery. That does not seem normal because my s3 t999 has 7% android os.

I have tried a different cable, a different charger and a different battery.

What is your guys baseband version and modem you are running? And under data, mobile networks, access points. What are you using att or att phone. I'm asking because my mobile network signal is mostly yellow and not full green. I live in the middle of a major city, with towers close to me, so I wonder if android os and the bad signal have something to do with this...

Yeah -101dBm is considered a very weak signal. You can try changing modems. Its easy you only flash the modem via cwm.

Check this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1740061

You can get any modem u want from perkas stash. Its not always the newer modem the better. And give each modem atleast a day to make sure if it is good or bad :)

You can also asure your ril libraries are matching the baseand you are using, this improves the signal strength and battery life.

I've just charged from 2% to 100% in less than 2h.

It's all about the charger...

In my case, I use one from my BB Playbook. It charges faster than every other method that I've used until now.

It have an input of 100-240V - 300mA 50-60Hz and an output of 5V 1.8A.
[Galaxy S III General] scoobyjenkins:
Charger and cable definitely make a difference, any branded ones I've used have been fine (LG, Huawei, Samsung, Nokia) but cheap unbranded cables have been very slow data transfer and charge.

I did notice however that a few nightlies ago using my phone while plugged in still drained battery but since 26-02-2013 build, battery has been much improved and that issue doesn't occur.

USB connection

Hi, I have just installed CM10.1 (and the stable 9.1) on my i9300. Both versions do not register any telephone when I hook them up to Linux. Literary no data connection seems to be made at the USB level.

Since I was able to flash Clockwork Recovery in Download mode, I am very positive the cable is not an issue.

I have also enabled the developer mode by tapping on the buildnumber severaltimes, enabled adb etc. On Linux I only get "waiting for device". Even enabling 'network' version of adb doesn't help me here nothing happens. I have also tried to use the program "aLogcat" which reports: "error opening trace file: No such file or directory"

Any leads?

Thanks for your reply.

I was running indeed an older version of adb, I have upgraded to 1.0.31.

My best advice is that you plug the phone on another usb port, it seems there're problems with the usb port, it may be a distro/config related problem.
