hhmmm...it sounds kinda like people are havin a little trouble gps-wise on the new official 2.4 ROM. I was having an issue with my GPS not pickin up on any satellites when i originally flashed the 2.3 official a couple of weeks ago. I remedied that by reverting back to the 2.2 official and grabbing a GPS lock on that ROM, then simply wiping and flashing back up to the 2.3 Official. Everything was all gravy from then on... Since I'm having no issue with GPS right now whatsoever, will I lose my GPS lock if I go up to the 2.4? ...or will the new 2.4 official maintain the GPS locks carried over from 2.2official->2.3official->the new 2.4official ? I don't mind to do what I gotta do to get a GPS lock; it's just a little bit of a headache havin to go back and wipe, flash, wipe, etc etc JUST to grab a simple GPS lock. Grrr...it's kinda a headache, but if I gotta do it, then so be it...guess I'll do what I gotta do!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lZnGl:
Really enjoying LiquidSmooth after making the switch from PA. Just wanted to throw out that my GPS lock is on point and takes no time, i flashed the ROM and did a cache and dalvik wipe. However, i've had a fairly noticeable decrease in regular and 4g coverage. I would get full bars + 4g at my house with stock and PA but now I sit at 1 bar and sporadically swap between 3g and 4g.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rhamorsky:
no gps problems here either! i read back and only saw two posts of problems with gps on 2.4 official. i dont think that means that "people" are having gps problems on this new build. all phones do not react the same to new builds and there will always be "people" with problems in certain areas. welcome to thr world of custom ROM's. if you havent tried 2.4 official yet, do a backup and give it a whirl....it's working great for me and hopefully it will for you also.:fingers-crossed:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] damnyouwaffles:
Me too. Not as bad but it seems my wifi and cell signal decreased when I flashed this. This is my first ROM on the s3 so I can't compare it to anything but stock.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] savagebunny:
For anyone having GPS issues like I did. I went the old school way of fixing it, like back on the Thunderbolt switching from Sense to AOSP, vice versa

Since I knew v2.2 was working with GPS... I enabled GPS on my 2.3 which WASNT working. I did a nandroid backup. Flashed 2.2, loaded it up, and got a lock which worked perfectly. Kept GPS and Wireless Network Location just to be safe enabled so I wouldn't have anything else broke.

Went back into recovery, Wiped Data/Cache/dalvik of 2.2... Did a restore of my nandroid 2.3, then once restored wiped cache/dalvik. Booted back up, enabled GPS and now it works. Locking on to 15 SATS while I was in my hotel room just now.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jamesino:
I had that with the old v2.1 builds; is this problem still happening?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
Did you by chance launch the camera from the lockscreen? I only ask because camera zoom fx when launched from the lockscreen is stuck in landscape which causes pics to be stored incorrectly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NITRO_2:
I launched it from my app drawer, not from the lockscreen. I am on version 2.3.2 though since I haven't had the time to do a clean install of 2.4. I'll try a clean install tomorrow and see if the problem still occurs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] smokeymouse:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nvertigo:
Same here. noticeable decrease in 4g, wifi, and voice signal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lZnGl:
i had initially made note of these issues earlier after flashing 2.4 and after traveling around today in the car I just wanted to reiterate thats its a fairly large issue. If any of the devs need any info that could help fix the problem i'd be more than happy to do my best to help, just send me a PM or whatever you'd (the devs) want to do. I'm really enjoying this rom and would love to see the issue addressed :) :good:

Hello,

So i've updated my google talk to google hangout. Video chat works, but with one issue: mic doesn't work. The other people can not hear me but I can hear them. Will their be a fix for this or a flashable zip?

Other than that, VERY SOLID ROM for me :laugh::highfive::good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
Same here, I can hear them, they can't hear me. I've only run liquid 2.4 since hangouts dropped, so I don't know if it's rom related or not.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] axne1:
I must say I had to leave the ROM because hang out would not work. I'm hoping that I can come back on as soon as there's a fix.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
Have you confirmed that it is rom related? Are you positive that hangouts is working on other roms/builds?

GPS problems

Hi. I'm on the new version. GPS locks without problems in few second. The problem is when I try to navigate, it stays on " searching for gps" screen for a long time when I try the navigate tab. Then it starts the route guidance after a long time. While driving multiple times it losses GPS signal and goes back to the searching for GPS screen. Cycle keeps repeating. Any ideas Guys?? Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
If your getting a GPS lock without an issue, then the navigation searching for GPS is a Google issue. My wife's new droid DNA was having the same issue and it ended up being a maps issue at that particular time.

I've had that happen to from time to time
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NITRO_2:
Getting hot reboots on a fresh install of 2.4. Could be because of TKmod but has anyone else experienced this? I've yet to even install any apps and my phones hot rebooting

EDIT: Can confirm it was TKmod 1.0.4 rev 4 that was causing my phone to hot reboot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] crjjr:
I had the same issue. Switched back to a TW based ROM, and Hangouts now works correctly. I also had this issue on another AOSP ROM, so I don't think it's just Liquid's build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jalewis:
Same here. It's been that way since I installed the 2.3.2 nightly and the new modem that was released.

I flashed the 2.4 nightly and am now running mastamoon's cm 10.1 with the same terrible reception.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] masri1987:
You're running 5/20 cm from mastamoon he had a lot of ril clean up that was supposed to help
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ANDROID 3G:
The only issues I'm having are when recording and playing back a video or a voice recording. The volume is very low even though the volume is turned all the way up. I tried messing around with the DSP manager to see if that fixed anything but it didn't.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SubMatrix:
Anyone know if bluetooth metadata has been fixed in CM and thus incorporated as part of LS 2.3 or 2.4? I'm on 2.2 official right now and this is one of the main issues that's been bothering me (showing song info on my car's HUD when playing music over bluetooth), but from what I gather this was a AOSP problem and not Liquids fault.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] red911turbo:
I'm have the opposite issue with the volume, I can not turn it down enough!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jalewis:
I'm actually still on the 5/15 release. I just saw that others were having issues here and this is the first rom I saw the issue on. I'll check his thread. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] GuitarrassDeAmor:
Was getting that really weird old TV looking error where I was getting fuzzy screens everywhere, lock screen and Google apps. Pissed me off so I upgraded tonight.

Only issue I have is Opera mobile won't load - continually crashes. Restore, new install, everything. Any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jsdecker10:
wow...man, don't feel bad about it not loading. I have never had Opera Mobile on any smartphone I've ever had. Well, I just read your post and I was curious, so I just downloaded it too...just to see if it would load for me. WEEELLLLLLL...same thing! I tried opening it and it just pops up really quick and then !!BOOM!! closes itself back almost immediately.. closes itself almost as fast as it managed to open itself up. Tried opening it several times and it just does the same thing. It pops up really quick. Just quick enough to where I can see that it's the Opera Mobile browser trying to open, then it slams shut just as quick. Weird, man. Just weird. And btw, I'm on the 2.3.2 Nightly/ 5-9 KT747.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lazarus0000:
Opera Beta! The old Opera was decent, the new is much better. Like Chrome, uses WebGL. I'm not a developer so I don't know the ins & outs of it but I can certainly attest to its speed & reliability. Also syncs with the desktop version of Opera. I'm no phanboi but Opera was the only reliable alternative to IE back in the day & the first to have "tabbed" browsing.

Give it a try...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] olufadi1:
I actually have been experiencing this a lot too. usually on the lockscreen. sometimes elsewhere. i don't think i saw this until the 2.4 nightly and official on my device. I just disabled the HW overlays in developer options and am watching to see if it still happens.

Also, does anyone have trouble when it comes to the updates? I get a lot of bootlooping when I try to update to nightlies and am forced to do a clean install with updates sometimes (factory reset). I didn't have the most current clockworkMod, but just updated so I guess I will see if this is the issue on the next update. If this doesn't fix it i might try TWRP recovery instead. Not too sure what else it might be.

Check to make sure that your bluetooth isn't flipping on and off rapidly on the phone. If it is there is a fix to flash a couple of pages back.

Peak Time Syncs

Is there any way to get Peak times in 4.2.2

Int 4.1.2 I have the ability to do this.. via

Settings -> Exchange active sync -> clicking one of my email accounts -> Sync Schedule (Peak/Off-peak schedule control) (see attachment)

I'm currently running Beans 15 rom..

thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobby janow:
Yes, it was. I reflashed 2.3.2 and it was still not connecting. I'm going to redo all my BT connections and try to see where I effed up. I'll start heading back now to find what you're talking about.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] GuitarrassDeAmor:
I don't use Opera on PC put I like it on my phone. Besides some new weird issues, specifically with Liquid Smooth as I've found so far. I'll try the beta...but I like having all my bookmarks and being logged in and really didn't want to have to redo all that...

Weird...same thing it's doing for me.

Those blue/green/pink/whatever lines are what I meant by the TV thing. I think I was on 2.2 before I upgraded to 2.4 last night. Haven't seen it since then. Did a complete reformat too BTW with a new Gapps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lazarus0000:
Before you uninstall Opera, turn on Opera Synch. You may have to open an account (free). I believe that will allow you to carry all your bookmarks over to Opera Beta. Since turning on Synch, I've not had to move bookmarks any time I've installed / reinstalled on a new device.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thelangosta:
Lol, I can't find it now. I went back 20 some odd pages. I looked on my phone and it is gone. Was going to Dropbox it for you. It stopped the crazy on and off. If it helps it was a link to another Rom thread where they had the same issue. I'll keep liking...

Hey liquid0624, it's there a nightly for the galaxy note II N7100 also cause not having any reception at all :(

Thanks so much

Verstuurd van mijn GT-N7100 met Tapatalk
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
My reception is just fine on 2.4. One thing that may be interesting to some: last week I lost 4g upon flashing a kernel, then on reboot I lost all data. Imei and other vital numbers were all intact. I ended up calling Verizon as all xda troubleshooting had no effect. They had me pull my battery and SIM while they sent a refresh signal to my phone. On reboot all data/signal was restored considerably stronger than before.

The tech said the cause of the issue is related to the phone building a "memory" to your local towers. Resetting the signal erases this memory causing full access to your local towers.

I've never heard of this, but I must say that for once vzw actually fixed my phone. Might be worth looking into. If anyone has any true tech knowledge to clarify what they did, I'd love to hear it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Stricly:
Dude,

The weirdest thing!!! I shut down my N7100, pulled the battery and let it sit for a minute or so. Put the battery back in and voila I got reception again. I never heard a story like yours but it worked so thank you very much!!

Don't know how long it will last till I lose reception again (I hope never) but you're a life saver. Good work man!!!

Thanks again

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lZnGl:
Did you do anything different other than just flashing the nightly? i've been using it as well but still experience sub-par signal quality
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobby janow:
Thanks. Yeah, something is messed up with BT for sure. It works but not quite like it was before. I think all aosp people are having this problem so I'll hang and wait for a fix. I'm wondering if it's a kernel thing though. I'll root around for any answers.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] liquid0624:
No i do not build nightlies for the n7100 but the stable release should work just fine and im glad you resolved your reception issue was most likely the carrier
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jsdecker10:
I've always kinda wondered if having "Access to my Location" settings set to "ON" with the "Wi-Fi & mobile network location" option checkbox CHECKED and the "GPS Satellites" option checkbox UNCHECKED, has any real significant affect on battery life? I know it probably has a minor affect on battery life because it's using more processing power to transmit that info to Google, and other location access leeches, etc. But is it really anything to be concerned about, like having GPS turned on kills battery life? I ask because I always leave my Wi-Fi and mobile network location option enabled at all times, just in case I need it for whatever reason..weather, time, location enabled programs like Llama and Tasker.

GPS does eat battery a bit. I used to have regular OEM battery & work 12 hr shifts, so I experimented with just about everything to be able to get through the day. I found that GPS on does make a difference as does WIFI when you're not connected to anything. GPS is constantly monitoring for a sat. signal, so that eats battery. Same for WIFI - if you're not connected to a WIFI source, your phone scans every so often (not sure what default is - it's either every 30 secs or a minute, I think) and that contributes to drain.

Outside of display though, biggest battery drain is data with a bad signal. I ended up disabling data, WIFI, GPS while @ work and that would get me through the day, only enabling whatever I needed whenever I needed it.

Finally bought big battery & cover from Hyperion and then no longer gave another thought to it. With services enabled, still walked out the door @ end of 13 or so hours with 50% or more battery left. It was (& is) a lifesaver...

Is anyone else getting terrible battery life? 9.5 hours on battery and I'm at 12%. That's with only 35 minutes of screen on time, 2 sent text messages and one 5 minute phone call.

With Cleanrom (touchwiz based) at this point in the day I'd usually be in the high 60s%. Any tips, or is jellybean just this terrible on the juice?

I have searched high and low for a solution to my problem, please help!

I cannot get Calendar to work. I have downloaded the latest version from the play store, and it opens fine. From within the app, I cannot select any of my calendars, it just says "No calendars" no matter what I do.

From a system standpoint, I have tried every combination of GApps' ContactSyncAdapter" and this ROM's CalendarProvider - nothing works. When I go into Settings > Google Accounts, calendar does not show up on the list of available sync types like it does on other ROMs.

Am I missing something? I really want to continue using this ROM, but the lack of a calendar is a deal breaker. Please please help! Thank you kindly.

Try another calendar app. Just as an experiment. For my own part, the calendar is a must have as well but the native app is unusable. I use Business Calendar (I've got the paid version but I think there's a free one as well) and it blows the native app out of the water. Regardless, if that's all that's making you unhappy with the ROM, you might give it a try. Otherwise, you may have to re-flash the ROM & G-APPS.

Hope you get it fixed!

Gmail notifications/sync

First off, love this rom. Definitely the slickest I've had on my s3 since I bought it. Kudos all around.

Here my issue, though. No matter what I do, Gmail won't automatically sync. I have to manually refresh in the app or manually sync the account. And since it's not syncing, I'm not getting any notifications. Really frustrating for work especially. I thought maybe it was somehow set to sync after a certain amount of time rather than instantly, but I let it sit for a day and a half and not a single one of the 50+ emails I received came through. So I opened the app, hit the sync button and BOOM all the emails filed in.

I've checked every notification setting (system and gmail) and every sync setting. I just finished re-flashing for the 5th time. I did a COMPLETE wipe (internal included) as well before flashing and still nothing. I see there have been a few other sync issues but this is the only one I encountered. Everything else in my Google Account syncs fine. Any help would be appreciated!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] projektorboy:
I just had to pipe in and give excellent props to this ROM. Battery life on some of the TouchWiz ROMs I've tried was absolutely horrid no matter how many apps I removed or how many things I disabled. I'm only 24 hours in and my phone finally is sleeping the way it should. LS 2.4 gets so many things right I don't know when/if I'll be moving away from it.
