Would someone please confirm that the new game Dead Trigger 2 fails to load? I am just getting a black screen. Could it be the MF1 kernel? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.madfingergames.deadtrigger2

So if I leave bluetooth on and connected then my alarm only plays through my bluetooth device... this is a terrible feature.

Is there anyway to fix this?

Alright, I think I'm finally ready to take the plunge and get off touchwiz! I was going to use the casual AIO tool to root/unlock/flash cwm. Anything tricky I should know about? Previous android phones were motorola, so I always had to do crazy stuff to do anything custom.

Back up your imei before you even start the root process...

Just in case.

I haven't had issues myself... But some others have.

Don't you have to be root to run the nvbackup command though?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dmginc:
Yes. Use mastamoons 10.2 custom build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buschbarber:
10.2 is very stable
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] invisiblek:
This is untrue (mostly)

They may add more features, like some cpu governors, I/O schedulers or other misc things, but they are in no way more 'polished', In fact I'd argue the opposite since many of these features are not tested as thoroughly.

The CM kernel is definitely not 'meant to accommodate multiple devices'. There are several different kernel trees on CyanogenMod's github for each device family. Sure a few devices share the same tree, but that's because they are the same chipset. They'll have different board files and defconfigs.

Most of the time, a custom kernel will be based off the CM kernel tree since its known to be working.

Has anyone had difficulty getting an SD Card to work? I have tried to get my 64GB card to work but it keeps saying it is damaged and when I try and format it, the phone soft reboots. I know the SD Card works as I can format it in windows and copy files to and from it, but outting it in the phone seems to corrupt it. The phone should be working as well a my 16GB card from my OG Droid work in the phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] drdagreenphd:
Try formatting your card to exfat format on your computer. You'll need a SD card reader and an exfat converter program. This will wipe your card, so back your stuff. This worked for at least 2 different 64gig cards I had the same issue with.

There's an official 12/20 out... But I'm afraid to flash it because I don't want to lose data...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DennisJuneLee:
yea can anyone confirm that data at least is working?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prophetjinn:
I just flashed it and lost my IRE. first time it's happened and didn't think it would, i guess im dumb. gotta odin back to stock to get the fix. guess i should've just been cautious. lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RCITNet:
I can confirm that data is not working on the 12/20 nightly. The phone is not registering with the carrier. MIN number, Phone number, EIMI SV number and I think something else was missing. Dirty flashed back to 12/18 unofficial and all is right with the world again. What I did notice was that an activation screen came up on 12/20 but nothing happened it just sat there. When I dirty flashed back to 12/18 the same thing happened again. I just hit the home button to go away from it.

dont odin back, just dirty flash 12/18.

dont odin back, just dirty flash 12/18.[/QUOTE]

I did, it didn't work :( i kept roaming. my ime was fine but ire wasn't there. i'm already halfway through fixing it anyways. did you try this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RCITNet:
I had the same issue when I flashed back to 12/18. Go in to mobile networks settings and make sure CDMA subscription is set to RUIM/SIM and Preferred network should be LTE/CDMA/EvDo. Back out and reboot in to recovery, fix permissions and reboot system.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wctaylor79:
Take it or leave it but in post 3 of this thread is links to the commits needed for data to work. Personally not flashing till those are added. The unofficial is still good though once built..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RCITNet:
Without looking at their git I wouldn't know what the changelog is telling me they did. I saw some changes to the D2 framework and they renamed the kernel so I gave it a shot. No harm done.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrostic:
If you took the time to look at their git or the review.CyanogenMod.org site, you would notice two things... One they have pretty well found a proper data fix, and two it is up for official review.

With any luck we will see it in tomorrow's nightly. I'd bank more heavily on a later date however.

When the final change is made you'll see roughly one to two commits merged regarding RIL.

One such commit is: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/28246/

Please don't bug the development team.. They don't have time for your ****.

(P.s. this is what an informative useful post looks like. Please take note.)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RCITNet:
Useful? Yes. Unnecessary bashing? Also yes.

Some people don't know what to look for in the change log to determine if something was fixed. What harm did it do to ask if data was fixed? You spent more time providing a bloated answer when a no would have sufficed.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thafngame24:
This same thing is happening to me but with a 32 gb sd card.... just out of nowhere this happened this morning. And I too get a soft reboot each time I try to format it. I have been on unofficial nightlies.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] grimez:
I had the same issue when I flashed the latest 10.1 nightly, and was slightly freaking out. Thank you for this, saved me the headache of going back to stock.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrostic:
I really shouldn't even bother responding to you, but why not. Sure I bashed a little, but this is a development thread and it shouldn't be posted in if you don't have something even remotely helpful to provide or report.

Asking a question about if features are working or not working is adding to the bloat of this thread and could be remedied by a General Discussion Thread. Furthermore, I enlightened people with a link so that the question doesn't need to be asked again if they read. (Doubtful)

To make this a relevant post and to hopefully reduce the amount of bloat. I'll add one more link to all open pending commits, there you can be ahead of the curve and see what features might be coming soon: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/q/status:open,n,z
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
Does anyone else find the comments from the dev team on the review site humerous? It was almost as if they were having a pissing match over the RIL fix haha.

Either way will be nice when this is fixed. Might give CM another shot when NFC is confirmed working, and maybe someday we'll actually get decent microphone volume.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] peaceofpi:
Have a 32 myself and I'm listening to the music on it as I type this. And looked at some photos watched a video... Not sure what's up with your cards.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goldsmitht:
Mastamoon's unofficial is working great on my phone, been my DD since install, and with a little help from a NFC fix zip (google, search, sorry, think it is InvisibleK's but not sure so won't post here) my NFC stays on even after reboots. Now, not going to say it is working, as i am the only one i know who has an S3 / Note so can't test it, but it didn't grey out

:cyclops:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
What about mic volume when recording video? Is it still low or has it been fixed? That's really the big thing holding me back. NFC isn't huge as I really never use it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] danstar:
I am some what happy with the unofficial builds right now. They are functional and smooth. I hope that they approve the ril fixes sooner than later. My phone is still functional, but more often than not, my signal status shows 0db with a high asu number. Other times it shows 2 or 3 bars on the display, but no 3g/4g indicator. I either have to turn airplane mode off and on, or turn data off and on to get it back. And yes, each time it has done this or I am showing 0db, I have checked and still have my phone number, imei, and all other appropriate numbers.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WhammyDroid:
Guys,

I am not sure if I made myself clear, so let me rephrase. CWM from the app (not recovery) is putting backups to the /data/media/ folder, not the /data/media/0 folder.

Edit: BTW, I should mention I first flashed CWM 6.0.2.3 on CM10. Then made a backup of CM10, completely wiped my phone and installed mastamoon's 12/18 10.1 nightly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] will.bates94:
dont use the app. go into your flashed recovery and run all your backups. it will save it to a safe location. I never use the app. Im not sure if there is a way to redirect where your backups are saving to in the app either.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Christopher3712:
To enable photosphere

Well, i can get the camera to take photosphere pictures, but my gallery times out when trying to view in 3D. Double-checking my permissions then will make sure there isn't a display setting I changed that could be interfering with it.

###Edit###

Download the attached.

THIS IS NOT A FLASHABLE FILE!

Unzip the file and place the folder on your sdcard (or internal memory, doesn't matter)

Use Root Explorer (or similar) for the next steps.

Remove (or rename) /system/app/Gallery2.apk

copy GalleryGoogle.apk and GmsCore.apk to /system/app/

Change permissions to rw-r--r-- for both files

Remove (or rename) /system/lib/libjni_filtershow_filters.so

Remove (or rename) /system/lib/libjni_mosaic.so

copy libjni_filtershow_filters.so, libjni_mosaic.so, liblightcycle.so to /system/lib/

Change permissions to rw-r--r-- for all 3 files.

Reboot.

Upon review, the gallery took a minute to initially view in photosphere mode, but it did load. The thumbnail colors are still off, but the picture loads correctly.

Here is my unofficial 12/20 build as of 10am EST.

http://d-h.st/e1Q mirror http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390233485161005297

Has a new RIL commit - http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/28246/ and a mic/sound commit http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/28754/

Using the same NFC blobs from yesterday so NFC should continue to work for those that used my rom yesterday and had working NFC. If you want working NFC and want to use my builds, I believe you will have to flash back to an ICS based TW rom then install mine. I believe the issues we are having with NFC between builds depends on the last TW rom you had flashed.

If you haven't been on a JB TW stock rom the ICS NFC blobs will work for you. If you have been on a JB TW stock rom you need to sue a rom that uses the JB NFC blobs (like aeroevans CM10.1 unofficials).

ICS NFC Blobs - http://d-h.st/BGN

JB NFC Blobs - http://d-h.st/UHv

If your NFC doesnt work try flashing one of these, one or the other should give you working NFC.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PerCompLLC:
Thanks mastamoon! Been waiting patiently for this today... I'm at work so I can't build my own. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goldsmitht:
this could just be my phone, but has anyone been able to download this yet? I've always had problems with devHost on my phone, but have been able to download and install before. HOWEVER, today i've tried 4 times, largest file that was downloaded was 94MB, but all say download complete.

Like i said, may be my phone, but was just checking

and thanks again Mastamoon; i was sitting here with my coffee, shaking, my flashaholic symptoms getting the better of me, when i found an update!

:cyclops:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tmac:
I used your 12/19 unofficial yesterday flawlessly.. Did clean install of this one and I have the same roaming issue as I did with official nightlies.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Ill try upping to another host. Might take a lil while though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PerCompLLC:
I haven't had the chance to test yet, but you should be able to dirty flash 12/19 over the top and everything should work again. I'll be dirty flashing this unofficial as soon as I can download it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
I dirtyflashed the 12/20 build on my phone twice with no roaming issues in sight. :-\
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bchi49:
Does 4G LTE work? I only get 3G, but it's better than no data. Thanks.

*edit* I had to remove sim card and batter for 30 seconds and put it back to update PRL, then 4g works.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PerCompLLC:
Again, I haven't been able to test yet as I'm not where I can download. But 4G worked perfectly on the 12/19 unofficial from mastamoon. I imagine that it will work perfectly on the 12/20 as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Zacharybinx34:
12-20 does not have working data.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Works fine here
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PerCompLLC:
I think we may be confusing the official with the unofficial. The CM10.1 12/20 Official does not have working data. mastamoon's CM10.1 12/20 unofficial has the RIL commits added and data does indeed work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390233485161005297 See if you can download it from there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PerCompLLC:
Work blocks it on my computer... :( But I'm going to step out in a couple and download it with my phone (I don't get a very good signal in my office).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bchi49:
I'll give that a try. For me I get 3G only on the un-offical versions 12/19 and 12/20. Not sure why. The network setting is set to LTE/CDMA/EvDo, CDMA roaming mode = auto, and CDMA subscription is RUIM/SIM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PerCompLLC:
Nope.

Edit: But I was able to download it from the first link you posted without issue. Just finished installing - booting up now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] peaceofpi:
anyone get GPS to lock - having issues here

on mastamoon's 12/19 build
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tmac:
Will reload 12/19 and try to dirty flash 12/20 over it and see if that works..

Is the distorted volume issued fixed on 12/20?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Restola:
The mic/sound commit does add stereo recording to camcorder, although it still doesn't sound as "full" as stock TW. It also seems to add a tiny bit of echo on calls to the other person (I tested by calling myself and putting my gs3 in a different room). There is no echo on speakerphone though (which i thought was curious).

I've been PMing the dev working on this for a few weeks, he's definitely doing us a huge benefit by working on this! I PM'd my findings today as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Zacharybinx34:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goldsmitht:
well, looks like i got the roaming bug too; been sitting on "waiting for network" for a while after dirty flashing lastest mastamoon 12/20.

my network says verizon, and i am able to send and receive facebook messages, and get messages, but can't get past "waiting for network" screen

phone number is borked, as is network type (something weird and not normal) :eek:

going to go back to backup and see what happens.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
I had the activation issue yesterday out of the blue.. what I did to get past it was turn on airplane mode while it was sitting there, then turn off airplane mode. Said "activation successful" after that and hasnt popped up since.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
Does this at least do something to fix the volume issues when recording? If so once this and a full working RIL fix are in I think I can move back to this. Here's to hoping lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bchi49:
[edited it...] after dial *228 and then 2 (Used another speaker phone with dial tone to press 2), it changed to 4G, but speed test still shows 3G, restart the phone it went back to 3G.

I wiped the data and factory reset, 4g works on CM10.1 unofficial version.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PerCompLLC:
Pretty freakin innovative! I never would have thought of using another phone to generate the tone... Nice! :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WhammyDroid:
Will that fix the voice dialing issue as well?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goldsmitht:
:D

DROOOOOOOSH!!!!@!! YOU DA MAN!!!!

DAMN!!! i've been in roaming mode and was thinking i was hosed (no way to odin back, no phone etc!) found your fix and DUDE!!! that was IT!!!

not sure how you figured it out, but saved my butt big time today!!!

OP: his fix should be put in OP as method of fixing roaming! definitely a LOT easier than odin'ing back to 4.0.4

flashed between TW and CM 10.1 and only residual is that it seems to try to activate every time, even tho it is showing 4G, and everything is ok. quick 4 corner tap and it clears right up. No issues here. back on 12/19 and very stable. :cyclops:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RCITNet:
Mastamoon I'm rocking your 12/18 build and it is solid. I don't know if this is possible but I tried earlier with no success. I tried having cyandelta load your rom which it did but I guess the build data is different from the officials and it didn't recognize it. Couldn't it be fixed so cyandelta knows to pull the new changes from the official that way your base rom still remains functional?

Sent from my Galaxy S III
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Restola:
All I can tell is that both mics are used when recording a video.. It does not sound as good as TW, in fact it sounds exactly like CM10 except you have stereo recording now. I never used voice dialing before so I'm not sure what "fixing it" would look like.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Zacharybinx34:
So is wireless tethering still broken?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Christopher3712:
That moment when you realize you posted a minute too soon and your post is completely overshadowed by the latest update. Lol, updated to the 12/20 unofficial and have no data connectivity issues.

**edit** but NFC is borked now, which it wasn't on the previous 12/18 build.

Hell, i'm at work, no odin possible, and knowing if i didn't get my phone back up was going to have to listen to the wife's "i told you so" about borking my phone!

gonna give 12/20 another shot, as i think i know how to get around data issue but want to test first.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gdanko:
After restoring a touchwiz ROM, open the dialer and type: *2767*3855#

Your phone will reboot and you will have data.

Just for giggled I tried these unofficials, got the data problem on both 12/19 AND 12/20, did the whole airplane toggle/switch subscription thing, STILL showed roaming. Nandroided back to my custom TW ROM, no roaming and I have data. Very odd, wondering if I should odin back to ICS and re-provision just to be safe. I was having roaming issues on CM10 as well towards the end.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bajasur:
Just wait till you get to an area with no reception. They will come back...

I'm going to Odin back in an hour and I'll report back
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
What do you mean? I mean I suppose I should re-provision just on the basis that something definitely seems weird, CM ROM's roam where TW ROMs do not.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] M Diddy:
Guys,

Any idea why I can seem to flash ANY of these 12/20 builds? Unofficial or not? This morning, I flashed Invisblek's, went into roaming and lost my phone number. I went through the entire process of using Odin to go back to completely stock. Got my phone number back and worked fine on TW. I then wiped data and installed Aero's 12/20 build, and again now, I've lost my phone number. No roaming this time, data is there, I simply can not make any calls.

Do I need to go back to stock again? More importantly, how do I stop my phone number from getting wiped?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bajasur:
I flashed back to TW ROM and I'm still roaming and global mode...!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
Same issue here, and I think the answer is obvious, the CM team latest RIL patch is screwed.

dial *2767*3855# in the phone app, backup your internal SD first as that will do a total format, your external SD will be fine. That fixed it for me.
