One might be under the impression that everyone else spends much of each day checking social media updates, but it's actually far from true. A substantial percentage of people give little time or effort to it. For those of us in that category, halo is of no interest.

I'd prefer Slim to stay...well...slim. Being a minimalist at heart, the last thing I want on a home screen that only has the Slim graphic, with Sidebar hidden on the right and Pie hidden on the left, is halo. :cool:

1. The problem is that after you take a picture for a twit or message, it shows three buttons on the bottom. Discard, retake, and submit. And the picture doesn't show after you take it. It's still showing whats on the camera.Swiping doesn't work, and if you click the retake button, it freezes, and you can't access the camera until you reboot.

Hi everyone,

I have run into a big issue, for the last 2 days in a row, and almost every other day before that my phone has said it's charged over night. When I unplug it it drops to 12% yesterday and 33 today, this is with full charge and almost full discharge cycles.

Once I charge it during the day or when it charges for real it then last very well like 14-16 hrs with normal use.

I really need to rectify this and any help would be very appreciated.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
I normally see such issues like this when being plugged in way too often and/or having the phone sit at 100% too long. If it sits there long enough over night it's like it mimics the % still showing 100% when in fact the battery has deteriorated and with no choice but to drain and once the cable's unglugged you will see the real-time percentage. The more often this is done the more you'll see drastic battery drain.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] oddspec:

Ringtone doesnt repeat

When I receive a phonecall, i can listen the ringtone only for 10secs. My custom ringtone length is 10secs. After that no sound comes from the phone. May be there are some settings to set the ringtone repetetive.

Any one knows, how to make my ringtone repeatable.

TIA
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 12packabs:
I think this is a known issue with other ROM also. If I remember correctly you'll need to create the ringtone with the length you want. There is no option to loop it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jasvncnt1:
I thought you needed to edit your ringtone in a third party app to loop?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] theppler:
jonnyb, I had this exact same problem but it happened while using the stock ROM. For me, there was a couple of problems...

One is a known issue with some SGS3 chargers:

SGS3 stock Charger Destroys usb cables?

I made up a special inline USB jumper cable that allows me to measure exactly how much current is going into my phones when I charge. With my "destroyed cable", the current jumps around and does not come anywhere near the 1 amp that is expected. For me, I threw on a different (cheap) USB cable onto the charger and bam! All good.

The problem is that the phone thinks it is getting lots of current to charge the battery but it isn't. This confuses the battery charging circuitry. Then, when you unplug the charger, the phone figures out that it actually didn't charge properly and drops the percentage accordingly.

My 2nd problem was a result of having my phone in my jeans pocket most of the time. Looking closely at the charge/data port on the phone, I could see a whole bunch of lint packed in there from me plugging in the charger every night. This also caused me problems with getting a reliable data connection when connected to a computer. I carefully used a needle to pick out the lint that I could and followed it up with a couple of careful shots of air from an air compressor and now the connector is clean and everything works as it should.

I would suggest you or anyone else with charging problems check into these solutions first.

4.2.2 Build 7 WIP changelog is up!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] brianray14:
Was experiencing web site weirdness after installing 6.5. After installing 6.8 and then 6.9, it went away for the most part. Still experiencing random sites locking and not scrolling properly. I've chalked it up to a chrome issue, not the ROM. I could be wrong tho
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Knight613:
Looks like Build 7 is up.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] baconatorXVI:
You guys should provide a bit more info besides weirdness... regardless build seven is up. I'd say update and try to recreate whatever problem you were experiencing. We're you using the unofficial flash player app? Try uninstalling/updating. Or not using flash at all.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bjtheone:
Currently running the latest weekly (have not reproduced on .7 Official yet). I am seeing "stalling" on Nav... symptoms are:

* display stalling and not updating

* voice instructions "tearing", get first half, a pause, and then the second half

* visible screen tearing/black voids in maps as it updates position

* once or twice I have gotten the "apps is not responding... wait/close" dialog

It has occured two day running while on 6.9 weekly.

I have never seen this before. It is occuring in an area with solid LTE connectivity. Not seeing any issues with GPS. GPS status apps show solid lock on satellites.

Any suggestios would be greatfully appreciated.

Did you do a full wipe before installing v7?

For me zooming works, but there is no focus adjustment.

There is no focus while the video is being recorded AND the final product is out of focus too.

Also, the video stays out of focus even if I return to the standard magnification.

problems? go clean!

So all through 6 and into 7 I am having little hassles using GPS, Bluetooth and receiving calls at the same time. Stuff like dropping the call or streaming not continuing after a call, or the call not coming through the headset... so I'm thinking Slim works great as long as you don't have anything too taxing for it. If you try to use it to the max... it fails. WRONG

Since I wasn't seeing anyone else complaining about these issues, which I wasn't having on CM or AOKP, I figured I'd give Slim 7 a fair shot with a clean install. Slim handled everything I threw at it without a hitch or glitch. Bluetooth, GPS, Streaming, Calls, Radar... all at the same time... perfectly!

So if any of you out there are experiencing any kind of "little" problems that you think shouldn't be happening, try a clean install.
