I'm curious if anyone else has similar behavior/issues that I am seeing with this ROM (on version 2.7, which I have stuck with since it has been stale).

Out of curiousity, I ran another analysis on my battery (ZeroLemon 7Ah) a few days ago since it has been in use for months. I used the phone to charge it back up from 0% after using the analyzer to drain to 3V at 500mA. The charge got to full and I pulled the pack to verify with a multimeter - 3.861V. Put back in phone and booted up, the software shows a correct 54% and continues to charge. I just let it continue to a full charge. At full, I pulled the pack again and found the battery to be sitting at 4.327v - WAY overcharged and resting there. I installed an app on the phone and it showed similar high voltage.

As a test, I let the battery drain to 4.1V over the next 2 days and charged back up. It has hit 95% at 4.18V unplugged and 4.24V plugged into a usb port. It doesn't look like the charging system is switching over to constant-voltage. 96% shows 4.27V plugged in and the same 4.18V unplugged. The resting voltage appears to be working more accurately on this charge, but it still shouldn't be getting 4.3V from the charging circuit.

Now I assume the charging circuitry is built completely into the phone, with nothing required of the battery itself (but the battery apparently doesn't have any good protection circuit). The phone knows that the voltage is high. How responsible is the ROM for charging a battery, versus some other part of the phone? The kernel?

I plan on testing the stock 2.1Ah battery again tonight, to see how it behaves.

I saw the mention of battery "tweaks" earlier in this thread. Can anyone provide more information? I'm curious if the charging algorithm can be improved in any way, to charge the battery like Li-Ion is supposed to be charged. Better yet, limiting a charge to 4.1V instead of 4.2V would be awesome for longevity. I don't need the extra 10-15% available in such a big battery by the extra 100mV.

I'm sure everyone would love to prevent a "vent with flame" incident with their phones. Perhaps the S3's charging circuit is just terrible and it relies on a protection circuit on the battery to cut off at 4.2V? I wouldn't think a manufacturer would do that, due to liability reasons. I've already contacted ZL for their take on the issue, but I have heard nothing back in the last 2 days.

Edit:

My stock 2100mAH battery is "96% charged" and at 4.24V. The overcharging continues.

Sorry this is off topic...

Can anyone help me get some better battery life? I've tried every kernel(BMS, dkp, ktoonsez, lean, stock cm, etc.) And I still get abysmal bat life. I'm currently on lean, undervolted. I can't seem to get more than 2-3 hrs screen time. I have two batteries that I rotate between.

My batt life sucks di** Lol. Ughhh

Been off the charger for 5 hours and already lost 50% only one hour screen on.

Hey everybody. I don't know if anyone is interested but I have put together a flashable zip that installs the Sony Walkman app from Hyperdrive (a TW ROM) on AOSP ROMs. I've been using it on Liquid Smooth for a couple of weeks and I thought I would share. I got permission from sbreen94 to make it public. I hope every one likes it. :)

What kernel are you using ?

From my GE GS3 xda developers app
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Circaflex:
Found my first bug if I try to insert contact details in messaging app it force closes tried wiping cache fix permissions even did clean install
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Thadd Valeika:
Nope. Don't have that problem here. I pay for the app and I mow lawns every single day so I'm listening to music almost all day everyday and besides XDA, Google Play Music is probably the most used app on my phone. Try clearing the data. If I ever have a problem with and app I always go into 'manage apps' and clear the data from whatever app I'm having trouble with. 9 out of 10 times it will fix whatever issue I was having. Hope I helped.;)

Anyone else had the black screen issue on this ROM? I did. The charge while off for an hour trick worked fine. However I don't know why it happened. Clean install and then bam, screen is black. O do have a special s3 as its been through a few rough patches of serious not working but its now working fine.

I had similar problem running dkp kernel. Try switching kernels and you'll be good.

Don't know if this issue was already posted (its hard to go through the whole search for this topic reveals a lot of results), but is anyone else having issues with the Camera putting in weird multicolored lines occasionally (especially when photos are a bit darkish)?? I've been having this problem for the past few versions. Just wanted to know if its just me, or if its just been missed, or if its everyone and already been mentioned and i'm just an ass for not picking up on it throughout the thread?

Thanks.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bytes2bits:
Nothing like that for me. I tend to think that could be a kernel issue. Did you maybe flash a kernel other than what the rom came with?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] src182:
I had to switch kernels 3 times for it to go away.

Remember to wipe cache and dalvik and fix permissions.

Got a question. Every time I install a theme, none of the items under Customize or Interface in settings menu don't get themed. This makes it difficult to see and read the icons and letters to those sub menus if I install a light colored theme. It just doesn't look complete as well when thief icons don't get themed.

Could this be rom related? I've emailed some of the devs for the themes and they aren't sure

Can anyone say Liquid Smooth 3?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Volknochi:
I've got an odd issue. Awhile ago, my stock messaging app wouldn't work properly in the sense that when I tap on "New Message", it wouldn't give me the input line where I can tap on it and put in a contact. If I went to the app itself and cleared its data, that would fix the issue temporarily. I've since downloaded HandCent SMS to be my current texting app but wanted to know if anyone else noticed this with this ROM. I couldn't seem to find any search results similar to my issue, sadly.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Soundtrack to Chaos:
I have that issue when I try to share a link or something to someone. I cannot put in a contact in the space because there is none

Camera and HDR

When using LS 2.8, I had HDR working. When I upgraded to 2.9, HDR is missing. I tried a clean install, wiped, and fixed permissions. No luck. Any Ideas?

Also, does anyone have a complete guide to this camera system? I think the one thing I miss the most is the anti-shake and I didn't see it.

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bytes2bits:
Pardon the somewhat off topic question but is anyone using Handcent? Specifically the popup notification? When I try to reply to a popup notification, my keyboard blocks the text input area. It doesn't matter which keyboard I try. Just curious if anyone has experienced this. GoSms doesn't cause this issue but we all know what a spam fest that is. I do love the stock messaging app but I miss the ability the enlarge the font on the popup notification for it.

Thanks for any insight.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xxSTARBUCKSxx:
Change your DPI for Stock Messaging app. Zap the cause, not the effect.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bytes2bits:
Hmmmm, now I'm intrigued. Can you be more specific? My dpi for the entire rom is set to 320. I haven't changed that from it's default when I first flashed the rom. Are saying to change the dpi for just the stock messaging app? Change it to what? Isn't 320 as large as it can go? And where do I go to change it just for one app? And thanks for taking the time to answer and any further info you can provide.

Never mind. I figured it out. This was a great solution! Thanks for the suggestion.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] WhiteiceDMSTech:
Hi there,

I am trying to install this rom after a buddy recommended it to me.

I am coming from Dazednconfused's Wicked Sensations (TW based rom.)

I have the latest TWRP recovery and wipe dalvik, cache, system, data.

I flash the latest Liquid Smooth rom and the latest GAPPS. It boots to the home screen. Then it immediately says "Android keyboard has stopped working." So when I go to my WiFi and enable it, it pops up to log into it, but when I click on the username/password part, no keyboard pops up so I can't do anything."

Please help. Thank you in advance,

Whiteice
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shinesthru:
Where did you DL gapps from? My hunch is it is related to the gapps package.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bog3nator:
Get a different keyboard. Or go into recovery and try fixing the permissions and clear cache

Otherwise we're still compiling and uploading builds... I'm currently compiling i9300 and will seal the deal for me and the devices I have to take care of. i9300 will only be available through GooManager til "Hiemanshu" updates the OP.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Xontic:
Ever since 4.2 they redid the location of the folders for multiple users. You can still access everything in a file browser like ES File Explorer. I don't know what wouldn't "read" the external card, you just need to know where you are looking for your stuff. This ROM is confirmed, like all others I have tested to have access to your ext sd card. If you need any help with locating files that appear to be eating up memory but aren;t showing up... check in your /mnt/shell folder. I think that is the path, maybe in there is an emulated or something. All files located in the shell folder show up as "0kb" but actually take up full amount of storage that they should and it will look like your sd card is showing way less available memory than it actually has.

Hope that explains that... :-?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] scirio:
I've was exclusively running this rom since version 2.3 (latest at time of this message is 2.9.) Always a clean wipe then flash between releases.

Somewhere between 2.7 and 2.9 my reception levels were increasingly deteriorating in areas where I always had great data, even 4G. Eventually I could only ever get data services on wifi, mobile data was busted. I then tried other TW and AOSP roms, swapped radio/modem out -- generally lots of troubleshooting and nothing brought back data except CM10 which on which I was able to get a weak 1X data signal.

I ODIN'd back to stock unrooted and data services did not return. I then decided to get it tested at the Sprint store which they determined after diagnostics that it had a dead modem (hardware) and the phone was deemed replacable. 4G/3G data now working, I immediately rooted the replacement and restored a nandroid backup of my Liquidsmooth 2.9 setup on it. Boom - no data.

I cant definitively blame this ROM or the process flashing of it but I thought I should mention this happened as I think it's a good test case.

I've had rooted, ROM'd Androids since the HTC Hero and never had an issue like this.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bog3nator:
Never had that problem. If you get cell signal just no data try flashing a tw rom and doing great a profile update. Then flash back

Sprint Galaxy S3 Google Play Edition
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] scirio:
Im not new to this by any means so that is one of the many troubleshooting steps I performed before AND after odin'd to stock. It was not fruitful.

Also no amount of flashing or troubleshooting will help when your modem chip is fried/corrupt.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] POWerSUrgeSW3:
Yeah but I wonder if they just got a false positive. I fried recoveries before and got them to take my phone back under warranty. Aside from flashing a different ROM, did you try just flashing a different modem firmware? See of that gave any errors?

i had this problem also, to fix I downloaded PA 4.2 gapps. and flashed. wiped cache and dalvik.

That's possible.

Still, I wonder why when I restored a 2.9 backup to the replacement phone I lost 4G/3G and was still left with only 1X data...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shinesthru:
I may be ignorant here, but my gut tells me it is probably at best risky and at worst a horrible idea to restore a nandroid between devices.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] scirio:
Agreed. But I considered it was worth a shot as I had them set up identically. I typically use Titanium to do cross-device restores with migration option enabled.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] POWerSUrgeSW3:
Yeah you're safer doing it that way. But as always TB can drag back issues from a previous ROM.

but if a TB backup brought the issue back on a different device makes it sound like the issue is totally software and not hardware related.

Liquid is dealing with some life complications at the moment but will get right back to work on 4.3 when and if it's convenient for him.

As far as you upgrading to 2.9 is concerned, if 2.7 has given you little to no issues then I would stay on it. However, if you're curious towards it's performance and stability then I'd suggest backing up your current ROM and give 2.9 a good test run. If it holds up to your standards then remain on that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Chad The Pathfinder:
Liquid, you all have a great ROM here. Thanks for all your hard work! Take as long as you need. Life and family come first.

As far as 2.9 goes, I used it for several weeks and it is top shelf. I say give it a go.
