Browser Sync errors

Searched the thread but didn't see anything recent on this (other than some posts in late January). I've noticed that my Google account sync is working fine EXCEPT FOR Browser. I try to turn off/on Sync for that and it shows the message "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly. prbassplayer suggested (back in Jan) to delete/re-add the Google account which I tried -- didn't help. All other syncs are fine -- but I miss my auto-sync of browser bookmarks and such. Anyone else having this issue?

Going to try the Chrome to Phone app to see if that basically does the same thing. I'm dirty flashed Build 5 over 4.2.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] oddspec:
I'm not sure if anyone e else has had ur problem but a general rule on any ROM is if u have a single issue is to full wipe before posting a problem to rule out it being caused by a dirty flash

I had this issue after trying the gpsfix app "trick". After following said directions of force stop and clear data/cache on Google framework step, it borked my Google account. NANDROID!!!

Using the "Galaxy Dock Sound Redirector" app in the meantime to redirect sound to the dock, but this app causes to volume to be locked to max value ... which isn't ideal when using a headset. :rolleyes:

Man, I'm ready to pull my hair out. I've searched up and down and can't find a solution. My device is not shown in Google Play Web store. Google Play is running fine on the phone, I can access my aps, etc. But on the web, it's not registered. I tried clearing cache from Google Play app, Google Play Services and Google Services Framework and restarting, but that didn't help. I'm on Build 5 and never had this problem with previous builds. Any ideas are greatly appreciated! :mad:

Are you signed in with the same Google account on your phone and your PC?

Yes, same account

EDIT: Never mind. Got it working again. Had to remove my Google account from the phone, cleared cache, data and force stopped Google Play, Google Play Service and Google Services Framework. Rebooted the phone, re added account, logged out and logged back into my account on the web and after a while, the phone showed up in Google Play web store.

I don't mind full wipe when flashing, the most difficult thing about it is remaking all of my settings for SLIM in Interface screens. Is there a way to preserve/restore previous custom SLIM settings between builds?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] blk_jack:
I know we just chatted about this, but for the benefit of others the answer is: no. You don't need to change your bootloader with Slim as the rom doesn't cause random reboots.

Sorry if someone has caught this already, but I believe I found a bug.

When I'm using the Exchange email app, and I lock my phone, I hear two lock noises. Then, when I hit the power or home key to unlock it, the phone skips past the lock screen and opens directly to the email app. I cannot reproduce this when locking the phone during any other app, but can reproduce the problem every single time I lock the phone while the email app is open. Its nothing major obviously, but I wanted to make you aware.

Switched back over to Slim after some time on TouchWiz AOSP themed ROMs.

Loving the quick response, my gaming performance is top notch and for the first time ever my battery drain over night was decent (normally can never get <1%/hr drain on AOSP) .

Thanks!

Only issue I seem to be having is Go SMS will not send MMS messages, stock app sends just fine.

Anybody run into anything similar?

Looked through settings but couldn't find anything obvious. Cleared app data and nothing.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Covenn:
Hey guys,

Just wanted to give you a shout out for putting together such a great Rom. Been using it for the past couple days, and with your Rom and the App "Greenify" I was able to bring battery drain to less than 1% per hour when not in use.

Since seeing that Google is going to be releasing the S4 with stock Android I wondered if that would at all help with the AOSP development for the S3 in some way?

As an example currently camera specific features such as the + and - exposure don't currently work. I would assume the drives used to run the camera between the S3 and S4 couldn't be to different.

Any who, just a curiosity.

Nice work guys.

ROM settings

Hey guys!

Does anyone of you know a way to save all the ROM settings to a file? Basically, a way to save all the fine tuning done in the Settings menu, including Slim's customized ones. The reason is, I maintain 4 phones, and all of them use SlimBean. It'd be a great time saver to do the settings once and then restore them to every device (NexusS, GNex, N4 and S3). Apps I can do with TiBu, but ROM settings take a while since there are so many of them (and I like to play with most of them, so...).

Any idea? Or any app that does this already?

Thanx!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] oddspec:
They r working on a built in option for this in the future but it has never been done for many devices u would have to save them on each device only way I ever seen this done is for aokp ( aokp backup app ) and it still wasn't perfect it forgot some stuff a lot

---------- Post added at 04:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:09 PM ----------

Hey blkjack I know u said u were working on this maybe this can help ??

https://github.com/romanbb/AOKP_Backup
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TopperCNC:
Yeah, the fact that some of those settings differ from device to device (even if it's the same ROM) doesn't help either. The restore app or process could simply ignore the settings that don't relate to a particular device though while keeping them in the backup. Why? Because of this:

1) Do the settings on devices 1 through 4 (or more) by hand as usual

2) Backup every device's system settings

3) Merge them together so you have a pool of all your devices' customized sys settings

4) Restore to all your devices. System settings that don't exist for a particular device are ignored, but kept in the backup because you use a single backup to restore to every device.

That'd be perfect! Well, I think...

Thanx!

EDIT: Of course, this implies that you're using the same ROM on your devices.

EDIT2: Maybe it could be something else too. A PC tool in which you inject your backed up settings directly into the ROM zip file, before flashing. Basically, you flash everything from recovery, right after a full wipe. Upon first boot, you're done. I'm not a developer so I have absolutely no clue if something like this is at all possible.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] blk_jack:
Regarding the backups and such. Unless you encounter issues you shouldn't be wiping between releases. Second, you can backup settings provider data and try restoring that. YMMV of course and don't report any issues here unless you can reproduce them after a full wipe with a logcat.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] blk_jack:
Not quite sure what you mean, I think auto correct boned you, but cordell & I both have S4s and have been maintaining beta builds for weeks now. The i337m build I maintain right now will work flawlessly on the at&t variants.

This is very true. Consider it our version of a nightly. It's a literal snapshot of that point in time for our repo whenever it happens to get built. There's no code freeze or review process like our official builds.

Hey guys I feel like I'm missing something simple here... anytime I use nfc with someone my phone always transfers whatever is on my screen without pulling up the "touch to beam" window.

I'm on build five and haven't full wiped since build 4, could this be part of my issue or is it a simple setting I can't find? I don't think I can reproduce this with a log cat for quite some time though as most of my family are Apple users

From what I understand, the gray means that no data is being transferred... it could be that the IP is still being assigned, or there is no connectivity with the selected network.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diakonos:
I've been seeing the same recently with Build 5. The first few times I saw it after a clean install I get the followup page with the particular permission that is requested and I would "accept" it.

Lately, though, I've been seeing this periodically in my notifications and when I select it to see the permission requested, no followup screen is shown. I tried the exact steps in Settings for Google account you mentioned and see the same notification show and, again, I select it and never see the permission screen that should follow. I also am still having trouble getting "Browser" to sync but all other Sync options work fine (I posted previously about Browser a few pages back).

EDIT: It seems the one that keeps requesting permission is My Tracks. If I disable sync on that, I don't get the notification each time I "Sync Now". After backing up my My Tracks data, uninstalling My Tracks, reinstalling it from Play store (not from TiBu) the sync is now working with no notification message on My Tracks.
