I wouldn't call it a bug in camera . I would say that something is missing and I have to instal Siyah or another kernel to make the camera work. I have this camera error with stock kernel in each and every Slimbean build I have ever used. I always wipe before the installation of each release (including formatting the system folder).

I have "ZD.." camera module.

Other than that excellent Rom as always.

Edit: I also forgot to say that I don't get this error with CM 10.1 .
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] bajong:
all i want to know is, if the touch to focus w/ flash on issue/bug or what ever you want to call this.is working? because it was already fixed with cm team last may 2, the camera on cm10 is 100% fixed. thx

sorry bad english

Kernel ?

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] x111:
All the Slim versions have the issue of disappearing the call sound. I found the solving that problem just when I did full wipe in recovery after installing and rebooting the system.

That is here huge problem with modem, but anyway others rom much more bad.

Just done up a charging animation zip package that should work. Clear cache and flash with CWM. The actual images were pulled from the latest CM 10.1 nightly.

I was Siyah kernel on build 4
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] stmaster:
Does anyone have a problem with build 5 and notifications lights. It just doesn't work on my S3. Not just notifications, even while on charge I got no light. I've done clean install after full wipe/format.

I've reverted back to previous build 4.2 and notifications light work just fine.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] JDogg1329:
Camera is absolutely perfect now!!!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] m0cha5hake:
Is there any way to set a song as my alarm ringtone. I remember on one of the previous builds when went to select a ringtone a dialog box would open up asking which program you wanted to use to complete the process; browsing your music was one of the options. Would be great if we could get that again in the next build.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] bajong:
yee perfect!!! ^_^ this ROM is now Stable as the stock samsung ROM ^__^

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] JDogg1329:
I'm using Temasek kernel, Siyah is also good.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] arbi97:
Have you got any lags in games for example ? How can hold the battery? Was it as the stock Rom's or not ?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] JDogg1329:
Haven't experienced lags on any kernel, this phone is very powerful. The battery is decent. I get about 12 hours with my usage, I'm trying to get more but I need to do a few things for that. The kernel has stweaks support which is good lots of settings to play with. I'm not sure what the last question means sorry
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] arbi97:
Soory man, I'm not Englishman, my english is bad((((

So... what version do you used ? The Linaro or waht. The Temasek's kernel has got 2 versions
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] JDogg1329:
That's alright buddy don't stress, you speak English better than a lot of people who have English as a first language :P. I'm using the Linaro version.

One question. How this Rom work ? Any bugs? Camera for example, autofocus is work ? and front camera ?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] JDogg1329:
The latest build is great. Camera is pretty much perfect and stable mow. Touch to focus works, auto focus works, front camera works fine switching is quick and it doesn't get stuck when you take a photo. There's also some new features. Swipe to take a photo and use your voice to take a photo
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] supreethms:
Will there be an addition of Photo Sphere to the camera? ;)

Just curious. Because i have so many places where i want to click a 360 view. :P
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mark26:

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Gabeloooooo:
I am loving this rom, hard to believe the samsung stock rom made the phone so sluggish!

I apologize for asking this dumb question, but I can't seem to find a definitive answer by searching. Is there somewhere where the directory structure is explained when you install slim (or any other AOSP I assume) after having stock before?

More specifically, it seems the old /sdcard/ is now in /data/media

I was wondering how much of /data/media/ we can safely delete to make room?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] supreethms:
I downloaded a package.. It contained the photosphere.. I flashed it.. the photosphere works fine.. but lacks the features like saving to SD card, and all those options.. if i go to settings, there's only 3 options.. lol.. i dont remember which.. :D
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mark26:
the downside of photosphere is lack of features from standard cam. not worth it imho.

Good evening guys, I read just now that my favorite rom (that I also used on my galaxy s2) exists for my samsung i9305, but on the site slimroms.net i do not see my phone i9305 but only i9300 and I was wondering if I install the rom of the i9300 the 2giga of ram and lte are handled correctly?

I got some problems that the camera pictures gets a blue tone. It's also blueish in the camera display:

Anyone else with this issue?

I have had this problem since build 3 and now im running latest 5.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mark26:
did you peel the blue sticky film off the camera lens?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] blackdust:
Make sure your white-balance is set on Auto
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] JDogg1329:
I had that. Go to lock screen settings and change that target manually to camera then change the icon again. Maybe the apk was renamed

Camera

Hi guys,

Not sure if this was reported before, but, the camera freezes with the error message "the gallery has stopped working", when the focus mode is on AUTO and flash is on Auto or ON. I am using I9300.

I have noticed this bug ever since i started using the ROM from build 4.0

Tried full wipe etc etc, starting from scratch, but nothing seems to fix it.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] SWEUP:
Where do I find this setting?

..

(no plastic on lens)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] orbine:

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Malle_eppie:

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mark26:

nice work mate :thumbup:
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] SnowPluralism:
Mate's tryed this after a proper flashing, full wipe, clean install, and at sim lock screen it keeps on asking for it, no matter how many times i insert it, checked imei and everything is ok with it, so is nothing with efs folder, any clue?

------------

Back On Stock and Sim Unlocked Perfectly ... could it be the ril?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] blackdust:
Right bottom icon of the camera 'settings-circle'. For me it says AW, I'm guessing yours looks like an upsidedown lightbulb
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] twinsen.net:
For me, that 'Take bug report' from development menu does not work. It asks for generation of report, then nothing happens.

I don't know why, but at the same area, on stock rom I had always H or H+ data transmission, with Slim it's often E or 3G only.

I tried it day by day to prevent suggestion of sector fulfillment by others. Sometimes after reboot phone seeks for network for long time (2 minutes?)

My network is T.Mobile Poland, I have modem I9300XXELLA. I tried to find RIL for this one, but after download I had no ringing tone. So I reflashed that Open RIL from build 4.2 and phone started to ringing again. But i think there is still some problem with match my modem and that Open RIL from Slim (too many speed decreases IMO).

Apps & Widgets

Hi Everyone,

I would like to say i absolutely love this rom and i have tried a fair few. Just one little problem after upgrading to the latest version, i have some live train apps from the UK and they have stopped working for example National Rail app and its widgets keep saying that it's offline and cannot find a connection. But it was perfectly working before i upgraded to the latest version has anyone else had similar issues? If so how did you fix it please?

Thanks

was missing since i flashed, this morning i set it to show (was ticked, had to remove and retick, and it reappeared)

Hi guys,

Having this weird issue, my sound (notifications, media) just goes off when I am using my headphones but when I unplug them, let the phone play some sound out, the sound recovers when I replug my headphones. But the sound goes out again after awhile but i can recover using the above method.

Am using latest build 5 and just flashed siyah 1.9.1 (initially was on stock kernel but encountered this issue, hence tried flashing a kernel but didn't work).

Build 5 was a dirty flash.

Huge Battery Issue!!

Hi Guys,

I must this is by far the best ROM I have used for my S3. I like every feature of this ROM and keep comoing back to it no matter what.

The only problem I have faced with this ROM is battery life. 'Google Services' uses the maximum amount of battery and the battery lasts merely for 12-14 hours on a full charge. I have attached screenshots of the battery stats. I have already switched off Google Now since I don't use it anyways but even that hasn't helped.

Is there any other kernel I should try? Or something else that might help solve this issue? Please help me with this guys, I relly don't want to go to any other ROM. Any help will be highly appreciated.

The baseband version on my phone is I9300DDEMB1 and I am using the phone in India, if that is of any help.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Skin1980:
I also haven't a good battery life but in my case is Android os that eats my battery.... any suggestion?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Stipe:

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Skin1980:
And how is battery life with that?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] kufikugel:
lol that has nothing to do with a rom...that can happen on all roms as well on stock rom.......to get now closer what this is causing (ok clear is it is some google stuff :p)

1. google for it and you will find links like that eg http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/38822/google-services-battery-usage

2. more important to help you....install BBS and find out which app and/or service is producing permanent wakelocks. Then it is easy to say what the cause is.

3. I hope you did a clean install :p

cheers
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] somanshmittal:
Thanks a lot for your reply. I didn't do a clean install of the build 5 but I got the exact same results on the previous builds whenever I had used Slim ROM. Also, this might not be because of the ROM but I was on pure unrooted stock for a couple of weeks and could easily achieve around 30-35 hours of backup on a single charge. So I guess it could be the kernel as well.

I have BBS installed but can't understand half the things in tha app. Could you please tell me which things to look out for to find out the notorious apps?

Should I try a clean install as well. I honestly don't think it'll make any difference. Correct me if I am wrong.

did you flash RIL? build 4 and up is using openril so flashing a ril of any kind is basically gonna screw with the signal indicator.

seems SlimPIE doesnt work for me on "Show always" mode

anyone?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] m4psycho:
It does work, but the trigger is very finnicky. I'm not sure if this is because of Nova Launcher, but it seems pretty unintuitive to actually get it to show. You have to hold down long enough, before sliding your finger for it to pop up. But the problem is the window of "opportunity" is rather short since you can't be too fast or it'll move you to the next home screen, and if you're too long then it'll just open up the menu to add a widget or whatever. I didn't look at this in detail though, since I don't actually use slimPIE :P

Awesome ROM!!!!!!! :D :D

I only have one issue, the sound in all CM10.1 roms are very low. I used Siyah kernel and by using STweaks, increased the sound by 2 units. But when I play music on full volume, using any music player, the sound distorts a lot and speakers start to burst.

Can someone suggest me how to resolve this, if there are any solutions?

Also, I know that there is a "The real dark slim" option in settings, but that option makes everything almost dark. I only want to change the background image in settings to black. Is there a way I can push a black image to achieve the same?

Thanks for all the help in advance.
