Another oddity just occurred on my device. As some have mentioned gps being an issue, I too have gps issues, which I don't care about since I don't use it, but nonetheless, i attempted to uninstall maps a few times in a novice attempt to rectify the issue and found that maps, nav, etc will remain in my app drawer until reboot despite my uninstalling it. I'm using nova with a third party icon pack which could potentially cause issues, but this is a stretch. Also, swype lags considerably as I just noticed while writing this longwinded comment
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] oddspec:
Swipe is an issue with their app some how though if u disable hw overlays it goes away I have read

And the nova app drawer thing is a nova bug it was complained to Kevin ( nova dev) many times in his thread and should be fixed next update if u wanna make GPS work try the GPS test app in the play store and use it to reset agps SATs I believe this fixes it for most

awesome rom, probably the best one i've used so far out of many, especially since its the only that I get good battery life with. Only issues are occasional screen flicker and my main problem:

Can't get USB dock audio to work after checking it in advanced settings, tried rebooting phone, unplugging and replugging usb, and killing/restarting play music/music apps. Is this a kernel issue or just a prob with 4.2.1? Worked fine on all previous aokp/cm10 4.1.2 roms. Anyone else get dock usb audio to work?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kafepuya:
There is some serious discussion going on about that subject over at the LiquidSmooth thread. I could not tell you personally if it works or not because I don't use that feature, but apparently there is a mod that some users flashed to gain the ability to USB Dock audio. Give it a look. Hope that helps.

Edit: Sorry I don't provide the link, I don't think it would be god etiquette. Just look at the AT&T Original Android Development sub-forum, and you'll find the thread.

OK well I reflashed, wiped everything and started clean. I also did a "fix permissions" after everything was installed. (currently running 1747UCLEM modem)

I now am able to get rid of the widgets page on the lock screen, which is great.

I have another problem though:

-Under "accounts" in settings, my google account has a sync error. If I try and "sync now" from the options menu button, I just get "sync is currently experiencing problems, it will be back shortly". If I click on my account, each of the items within have all been synced recently, and they seem to sync just fine

Any thoughts?

Also, does anyone know how I can disable the lock screen animation? I used to be able to do this within the dev settings, by changing a setting to 0.5, but that doesnt seem to work anymore.

Download SlimBean 4.2.1 Beta 1?

Hey everyone,

I tried out both the 4.2.1 Beta 2 and RC1 and I have experienced a few issues and I wanted to go back to Beta 1. However, I lost the rom I had and its no longer available for download on the SlimRom website. Does anybody know where I can get a hold of the 4.2.1 Beta 1 rom?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Re: [ROM][4.2.1]Slim Bean-d2(att/bell/telus/rogers)

I don't even think that beta 1 was on the slim site so unless someone still has it on their sdcard and is willing to host it, it will be pretty hard to track down.

Did you clean flash the latest rc1? And did you search this thread for the problems you were having?

I haven't had any issues with rc1 aside from the graphics bug when opening certain apps, which was promptly fixed the next day after the release.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mcescolini:
Hello there, thanks for the reply.

The Beta 1 was actually on the slimrom website because thats where i originally downloaded it from. However it isn't available for download anymore. The original link for it now just points to Beta 2. I did do a clean install of RC1 and i did seach the threads for my issues but I couldn't find anything about it. I think I'll give RC1 another try though. See if I have any luck.

I found a cool feature while using this ROM, it reminds me to restart me device every two days.

How does it do this you might ask? Well the delay for long press gets shorter and shorter and I can whenever I tap the Home (or any) button I get the long press action! Plus when I reboot it clears all my widgets! :eek:

But I enjoy this ROM, it is great, better for me on battery life.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] baconatorXVI:
Huh hw overlays fixes Swype lag... i thought my kernel settings were making it lag. It must use a lot of gpu then or something. Perhaps there's an issue with the gpu?

Also guys, is there any way to stop Google play store from updating apps over cell data between flashes? It's not as big deal to go change it manually but I often forget to do it and loose data for the month. I'm just wondering if it can be changed in the gapps
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] basily:
No lag in my swype here - you guys using swype or swype beta? I haven't messed around with hw overlays or anything and regular swype seems ok - the only lag I get is when I switch languages, but that's ok because it matches my brain lag.

Losing your data for a MONTH? Either you have a crapload of apps, or a very crappy data plan! How about taking out your SIM before you flash, that way you HAVE to remember to turn data off and wifi on...

To me this almost sounds like a heat issue. You say it's only when gaming? I'm not sure what kik is.

Try putting your phone in the freezer and playing your game. You may be just getting a thermal reboot.

Either that or get cool tool's and setup the overlay custom read value to tell you cpu temp. I have to use ktoonsez's kernel and undervolt or mine overheats like crazy.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] basily:
I'd be cautious about putting your phone in the freezer! If there's any humidity in the air at all when you take it out, you'll end up with moisture inside the phone, maybe a lot if it's very humid. That could easily spell the end of your phone...

Yes! And I can't figure out why. It's been happening since build 6 actually. But on 6 I thought it was because I dirty flashed from 5 to 6. With 7 I did a clean install and battery life is not what it used to be prior to 6. I downloaded an app called Wakelock Detector and it's showing me that the phone is not going into deep sleep at all.

It seems like the AOSP/AOKP roms don't have the same battery efficiency as touchwiz builds.

Your using 7.4% per hour? Looks like bluetooth has been running the entire time too. I could be wrong but It looks like thats where a lot of your issue comes from. Do you usually leave that on? How long have you been running build 6
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TadMorose:
Yes, I always leave it on so I don't have to fiddle with it when I get into my car with bluetooth handsfree.

---------- Post added at 10:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:13 AM ----------

I'm running build 7 actually, but it was the same thing on build 6. I've always left bluetooth on and never had a problem with battery life until build 6.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pberge:
Your phone is never going into deep sleep. I think the bluesleep and msm_serial_hs_dma wakelocks are related to bluetooth. If you search you can find some potential fixes for that, but I don't use bluetooth so can't vouch for any of the methods.

You might also want to consider getting rid of WeatherEye or changing the update rate if possible.

Greenify is a good option to stop unwanted things from running in the background.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jasvncnt1:
Only thing I can say is maybe fresh clean install. You can just try shutting bluetooth off for a few hours just as a test. Your phone is not sleeping at all. It looks like two of your biggest wake locks are from bluetooth. Also looks like your weather app is updating way too often.

Sorry..didnt see pberge had also responded with same info
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
You're gonna have to turn bluetooth off then reboot in order to get rid of those wakelocks. Otherwise, clean install is recommended.

Take care of that weather app as well.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TadMorose:
Thanks for the suggestions guys. I turned bluetooth off and rebooted. Will keep an eye on deep sleep for the next few hours. I also searched on xda for bluesleep and msm_serial_hs_dma wakelocks and it appears it's happening to many people. Not sure why it wasn't an issue for me before build 6. I did full wipe and clean install of build 7, so don't think I need to do that again. But I did find a fix for bluesleep, which claims significant battery life improvement:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2021469

It says it should work for any device and any AOSP ROM, so I will read some more and will try it later.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jasvncnt1:
Think part of the problem is when you turn off Bluetooth the service would still be running. You can check by looking in running apps
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TadMorose:
Looks like it's working so far. BBS is showing deep sleep and battery drain is down to 4%.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Yes, a simple BT toggle off and reboot usually does the trick.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TadMorose:
What do you think about the Bluesleep fix? Worth a try?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Just monitor how the phone runs. If all appears to be well then it's not needed. If those wakelocks decide to reappear then try that fix. You're obviously gonna want a backup in case things go horribly wrong while writing to the system.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TadMorose:
Of course. I will make a nandroid backup before flashing the fix. Thanks for your help! :good:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Konner920:
I actually flashed a different kernel after I had gotten home, and it stopped hard rebooting. I actually don't know how to do logcats and last_kmsg or I would have done that from the beginning. :C I'm sorry. It was most definitely something with the kernel, if flashing a different one solved it, everything else with the rom is doing just fine though.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] J M L:
This is something I've also noticed. When the phone's asleep, it's asleep, and uses almost no battery at all. When the screen is on and the phone is awake, sometimes it uses much more battery than others. To me, this seems to be a difference between 3.0 and 3.4 kernels, but because those are on different ROM backgrounds, it's hard to isolate it to just that. It very well may have to do with the CPU governor. I've not done any rigorous testing to draw any firm conclusions. What somebody with time needs to do is something very simple, like set a particular governor and hold brightness constant, then read a book on the phone for a few hours, then set a different governor, and read for another few hours, and see if there's any change in battery usage. All of this while keeping other things, such as wifi, cell signal strength, and background processes as constant as possible.

I've also noticed the problem with bluesleep and msm_serial_hs_dma using the kernel which comes with slim. I did try to do some testing on this, but I'm not sure I got it right. I didn't find an official place to report bugs with Slimrom, so I wasn't completely rigorous with my testing. I think that if a device is connected with bluetooth and then disconnects and bluetooth is left on, that the bluesleep wakelock kicks in. My method of getting around it is to turn on bluetooth, connect my device, disconnect my device (when I'm done using it), and then turn off bluetooth. This problem has existed for several of the past weeklies and the current 7 stable. I tried Lean Kernel and it didn't seem to show the bluesleep issue, but did have random reboots, so I went back to the default Slim kernel with 7. I've not tried the latest Lean Kernel to see if it still has the reboot issues.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] blk_jack:
Your issue is being caused by an upstream issue with Bluetooth (affects all AOSP based ROMs). What's happening is Bluetooth is crashing and it's causing permanent wakelock as well as thrashing the CPU.

It's one of the biggest outstanding issues for d2. Read more about it on CyanogenMod's issue tracker here: https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-504
