I tried to install the latest official version of DashClock but it would not work because the package was not signed.

I installed it from the ROM using Titanium, but now if I want to install the version from the play store, it says it's not compatible...

Any clue?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bjtheone:
Absolutely... and am on Rogers. TYpically get around 25 Mbps down, 5 Mbps up on my tablet, tethered to my S3.

First thing, the obvious question, do you have LTE tethering enabled by Rogers (ie over 1 Gb data plan)? Did tethering ever work on your plan?

Beyond that I found that tethering broke in 4.something. Basically Google implemented a flag on data packets coming from tethered devices that allows carriers to know you are tethering, so that they can block you if you do not have a plan that allows it. Unfortunately as far as I can tell in typical Rogers fashion, they screwed up the implementation such that they broke tethering even if you have a plan that allows it. It is definately carrier specific, as the "stock" tethering in Slimbean works with some carriers.

The "fix" i have found is to do some tweaking to the iptables such that you masquerade the tethered data packets. See post:

Not sure if Im asking this correctly but..does the latest Upgrade_build.6.to.6.x.AIO_Addons have the new gmail? And if so I assume will work with real dark slim setting?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] joefloater:
Thanks for this it is greatly appreciated, I didn't know a fix even existed for this. Now I cant wait to get to work where I actually have lte so I can test it out. No longer any reason to go back to touchwiz. :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] blk_jack:
Uninstall the DashClock that comes w/ the ROM (using SlimSizer, etc) and install the one from the Market. The deal w/ DashClock is we're only allowed to ship it with the ROM if we compile it from source. Since WE compile it from source to include it with the ROM, we also sign the compiled package. That means the signatures will be incompatible and you won't be able to update it via the Play Store. That said, we always grab the latest changes with every new version of Slim (so, every week), which means our version is actually updated more often than the official one on the Play Store.

So yea, you could go through the hassle of deleting it then installing the play store version, but every time you flash the ROM you'd have to manually delete it from /system/app/ after.

Every weekly the Upgrade packages gets updated if a new version of a gapp is out (and, obviously, we've had the time to update/test it ourselves w/ TRDS). It literally differs per-week, but I will say that we're pretty good at providing timely updates. To my knowledge the version of Gmail in the latest Gapps/AIO upgrade packages is the newest, with TRDS & all that jazz.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] basily:
I had a weird thing happen. I'm on Slim 6 official, and all of a sudden, starting yesterday, I kept getting frequent soft-boots. It would soft-boot no matter what I was doing, maybe every 8 minutes or so, and it would soft-boot every single time I would try to uninstall an app. Sometimes I would need to try to uninstall the app several times before it actually went.

So I tried deleting cache, dalvik and fixing permissions. Problem persists.

I tried freezing all recently updated apps. Problem persists.

I tried reflashing slim and gapps. Problem persists.

I am now reflashing clean and so far so good, but I'm afraid that I might restore some app's data and the whole thing will start again.

Any advice?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jasvncnt1:
Sorry I dont have any advice..but I have the same problem when uninstalling apps. What way are you uninstalling?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] basily:
I just started uninstalling everything that I had recently installed or updated, because the every-8-minutes reboot was putting a damper on my netflix... but then everything that I tried to uninstall caused a soft-reboot too! That's why I tried freezing the apps.

Let me see... I had NFC-retag, netflix, and I can't remember what else now because I'm on fresh install now and I can't see my apps in order of updates anymore...

Well, I just restored the data for all my user apps and the problem has not returned, so I guess that's the long winded solution. Now if only there was an easy way to restore all my slim and system settings...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] vrekeno:
Thanks, I'll think about it then.

I have the exact same problem.

Which version of the BMS kernel should I flash? 3.0.y or 3.4.y?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] arse87zx:
3.4
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jasvncnt1:
If your on slim v6 then 3.4
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] baconatorXVI:
How hot was your phone? Heat can screw it up, were you on kt747? I think his kthermal fixed the reboot issue when you overclock

If it ever happens again perhaps pull the last_ksmg and see if you can get help. Or I think you can use adb to pull a log for if you ever run into the soft boot loop again.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] basily:
The phone wasn't hot, not that I noticed anyway. And it wasn't in a hot place either. What's kt747? A kernel I assume? I'm stock all the way, no overclock (is it necessary on this phone?) So what it last_ksmg? Is that a log file? Where do I find it?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] seko666:
Sdcard/proc/last_kmsg

Slim-4.2.2.build.6-official & lk v6.4
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] baconatorXVI:
I think I misspoke last_ksmg would be some kind of log when you reboot unexpectedly, not sure about a soft reboot though. It's helpful for telling what the kernel did before the reboot, it can point you to the problem if you know what to look for, I don't know what to look for, haven't looked into learning how last_ksmg's work.

Kt747 is a great kernel by ktoonsez.

Overclock isn't necessary, I'm way under clocked. There were people running into overheating issues that made boot loops, but that was awhile ago I can't remember the specifics.

Anyways if your clean flash works then awesome!

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] prbassplayer:
last_kmsg should be created when device reboots unexpectedly. It should be in /proc/last_kmsg. Also it's not always created so if you can reproduce the problem do cat /proc/kmsg > kmsg .txt from terminal emulator or adb shell. You need su for this.

Quick question. Hadn't played in a while, so I brought up GTA:VC. Everything works great until I get into a car. It's as if the display won't update my view (i.e. the HUD like the map and health will change and update, but the playing screen is still stuck at the point of the door closing). I haven't played it since my last TouchWiz ROM, and this went well. This is my first AOSP ROM playing it. Any thoughts? I tried all of the GPU developer options, tweaking the display options in the game. The only thing I hadn't tried was the "Surface improvement" under the Settings > Performance.

Also, holy cow on the battery life. I've been using the stock kernel for two days and wow. For me it has been much better than KT. I was having issues with random soft reboots. Could not figure it out. Downloaded and dirty flashed 6.8, still had issues. Clean flashed 6.8, still had issues. Tried to flash PA nightly but it freaked about the bootloader. Went back to a clean 6.8 and now it's been soft reboot free for two days. IDK...

I am spending at least 24 hours with each modem. If anyone knows a fix and can let me know that would be great. Before the ROM, this wasn't happening so it can't be a hardware issue. I've attached the times when the signal is lost/restored.
