Guys is it my fault ? Everywhere I see people proud about the battery with this rom, but my battery is not really good, I mean it dropped 19% over night, even much than the stock rom, anyone can tell me how to get more battery? I use Archi Kernel 1.2 and in aroma I choose the stock look (touchwiz, stock keyboard, etc)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DroidShift79:
did you check for any apps that could drain your battery?

Cos this ROM surly has top battery life for me. ~12hours on with up to 5hours screen on time.

Using ~3% at night

your battery could be broken as well
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lsalamun:
How old is your battery, what is your kernel and it's config and do u use facebook etc? Because i can get max 4h SOT.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gabyif:
Hmm...I think my battery is 1-1 and a half year old, I use greenify to sleep the apps.I downloaded now the boeffla kernel and use Archi profile
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DroidShift79:
Same here.

Always on boeffla kernel. With location based battery profiles.

Yes, using Facebook and stuff.

Anyway, 4h SOT is perfect.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gabyif:
Are you using Archi profile as well?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DroidShift79:
Yes, i did use archi profiles, back then.

I'm on V2 version of archidroid, nowadays
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gabyif:
I undestand you're on 4.4.4 version,does the camera work well,I mean the second video bug is there?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Depressed T.Bear:
Even after a totally fresh and clean install, beside the Wifi problems, something went horribly wrong with the latest release... I hope the next update fixes the issues... Or I'll have to downgrade to .15.... :((

I had this problem before, including some crazy root problems and incredible FC problems. It only happened twice when installing archidroid (keep in mind I've installed AD a bunch of times and different versions).

The solution for me was to backup my data from internal SD to my computer, then format the internal SD (erase all data on it and prepare for super duper clean install). After it worked flawlessly.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] enebro77:
How did you format the internal SD ?

Just windows defaults ?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Gastozz:
What should I install from bloatware to get Samsung account available?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] benedictros:
First do a full nandroid backup to your external SD. Once you are sure you have done that:

1) make nandroid backup to external SD, copy this backup to your pc if possible

2) make sure you have manually backed up any files you need from internal SD (such as pictures, videos, music etc)

3) take out your external SD (to make sure you don't mistakenly format your ext sd)

4) go to recovery

5) wipe data factory reset

6) wipe caches

7) wipe to install new rom

Give that a try. If it doesn't wipe still, you can try the format/mount function in recovery to format internal SD. Just make sure you know the consequences and don't just wipe blindly, because you will lose all data!

I hate to sound like a total rube, but I'm under the impression that the s3 builds are unified now, so would this work on a CDMA network such as Verizon? Figured I'd check before testing.

That's how I made my "clean install"... The problems in 1.7.16 are still present. .15 worked fine.

So I'm waiting for the update which hopefully fixes all the reported issues and male ArchiDroid work again like it did before.

Otherwise I'll downgrade to .15 or change the rom :( But I'd really love to stay on ArchiDroid!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gabyif:
In the .16 vresion even if I don't keep the wi-fi ON,in battery option it shows me that it is ON all the time,also big battery drain :angel:,trying .15 now and see if the "bugs" are fixed

That's no bug. That's standard android behavior. You need to go into the wifi options and set the menu item scanning always available to off

I have battery drain in this rom, so I do what archi said in q&a section of the rom, I charged my phone, rebooted it, open BBS and let the wi-fi on for the night, in the morning I took a text doc of the BBS.Hope anyone can help me :)

Also the phone is heating, sometimes the processor can have 53-60 C
[Galaxy S III Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
Hi there, I don't get this issue, BUT I put my wife's phone on it and she is getting this issue, bad WiFi and bad battery drain. [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION] it does seem like something is wrong somewhere, but it seems limited to certain phones only, I'm going to guess there are some phones out there with different revisions of hardware and this is why it's causing some people issues and for others not.

Are you looking into it or should people with issues revert back a release? If they revert should they clean install or can they get away with dirty flashing to v15?

These stats are pretty normal if you have Wi-Fi, location and some stupid app like google maps turned on whole the time.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gabyif:
I thought that this problems comes from the .16 version and I dirty flashed .15 over .16 but this "problems" are still there :(
[Galaxy S III Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
Archi, my wife has wifi on at all times, no location services, I maintain her phone, nothing different in apps or usage compared to her being on Carbon rom at all, she is a creature of habit, never uses anything new, but either way it has wifi issues including unstable warnings etc, put her back on carbon, restore the same apps and everything is perfect for her again.

I only use wifi as required, so I never see the issue, but I have noticed when it's one, wifi does somes get unstable warnings and the rom does use more power than usual when it is on.

Many people like my wifi are barely ever out of wifi coverage. She has it at home, at work and as a British Telecom customer she has coverage from hotspots as she roams, so there is no point turning it off.

I'm going to try previous version, with same usage on both phones, if I see an improvement then I will come back and confirm.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gabyif:
I never keep the gps on,only the wi-fi is on almost all the time and GMaps..I don't really use them,or other Google Apps,just Play market and GSearch,but very rare.Should I try to calibrate the battery with an app from PlayStore?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lsalamun:
For fixing the drain (worked for me) download and install xposed, afterwards download and install wakelock terminator from Play store, then enable it in xposed and open the app, search for google services, then check prevent wakelock and under filter wakelock write

NlpWakeLock

NlpCollectorWakeLock

CheckInService

NetworkLocationLocator

And reboot the phone.

That will chill down your GPservices and it will not break down something like Maps or GPS.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Sammy ROM can't be responsible for such problems. Reverting back to older release won't magically fix your issues.

Good for you, I just updated my Wi-Fi drivers in ArchiKernel, which will be included in next 1.X release (soon), this may reduce such drain.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
Excellent. Testing neatrom, no issues with that Sammy based build, so you might be onto something there! Will keep my eyes peeled for next release. Thanks for looking at potential resolutions :thumbup::)

[Galaxy S III Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
~For those with wifi drain, as a test last night (on neat rom) I left it on along with mobile carrier still connected also and in 8 hours it is down from 100% to 97%. 3% in 8 hours seems fine to me, but is that would people who do this would expect or would you expect more? What did people observe with build 16 of Archidroid who complained?

Interested to know.

I selected Neat rom as the test rom simply because it is a sammy based rom that pretty much closely follows that of Archi's works, so as far as I could see would be the best test.

My wife is back on Carbon at the moment, so I am going to get her to perform that test tonight also so I can see how asop compares.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ramansehra:
I tried to send files through wifi direct, but I didn't get option to share via wifi direct.

Otherwise there is no connection problem.

What statement do you want? "It works fine for me"? Are you satisfied now?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
Hi there, it is not archi 1x

Issue, I found the problem with that, I assume you have used one of the archi kernels at some point? That is the issue.

If you flash 1x over and select a non-archi kernel the issue still remains, however if you fully wipe your device and install archi 1x and select stock kernel and test again the issue should no longer be there, can you test that without restoring any apps first and report back?

Play Store [update]

ArchiFolks, version 1.7.17 release date is still unknown (thanks to lazy Samsung which literally has left us.. but on the other hand thanks to Archi for 1.7.16 which makes me almost impassive if our manufacter will ever seed any update :cool:) so in case you were wondering how to update Play Store here comes my answer. :)

[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
It's nearly two months after last release, and you say that it came with latest update. Right, everybody was suffering since last two months and nobody told me about that :rolleyes:.

Probably you didn't read AK instructions, flashed this kernel on top of boeffla and now you're complaining.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Depressed T.Bear:

Hi Archi, I just wanted to report back again.

I remained faithful to you and just switched to ArchiDroid V2.5!

Now this ROM is amazing! I find it much leaner and faster than ArchiDroid V1.

It took very long to move (I performed a "clean" install, then installed all the apps and ported their data manually...), but it was worth it.

All the "problems" I had with V1 are gone :)

Keep up the good work, it's fantastic. :good:

Hi! First off I just want say that this rom is amazing and fast! I haven't had any problems except for one thing. The SNS for facebook is not working. When i log in to "Sync apps with Facebook" after i hit log in, it just shows a blank page. I tried:

-Re installing Facebook several times including rebooting.

-Re flashing the rom (clean flash)

-Clearing the "SNS" app's data and cache.

-Turning off the SNS app then back on.

I would appreciate any help! Thanks in advance.

P.S

I never changed my modem and it's still the same on the phone (using the latest modem for the Philippines), but I don't get full network signal bars.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Depressed T.Bear:
Hi, I think it might be a good idea :) I'll post a benchmark later this evening for your!

/Edit: Keep in mind, I have lots of apps running in the background (~ 90-120 mb free ram)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
My Sammy 4.3, not sure I see the point of aosp on this device, 4.3 stock has been so well optimised by the likes of sale and archi. Just about all the benefits of KitKat can be replicated and you get the benefit of keeping all that's proprietary. I spent all my time on my i9100 on AOSP roms, mainly Carbon, but the camera issues etc on i9300 just make it such a deal breaker for this device.

Anyway, my stats, for what they are ever really worth! lol

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Depressed T.Bear:
Not sure I understand what you mean by that.

He has asked me to make the benchmark - I've done that.

I also wouldn't have changed to ASOP, if the "problems" for me were not there. So I've tried 2.5.x and I like it very much, everything works like a charm!

Anyway, to each his own...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
So no camera connect issues or video record initialisation failures after using and switching between photo and video modes? You are one of the lucky ones, i get no end of issues with it sadly. It would be nice to have the choice but unless a universal hal/camfix comes I'm in the dark.

Luckily it's forced me to discover just how good stock can be and that had saved me from selling the device.

Sent from my GT-I9300
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Depressed T.Bear:
No, I don't have this problems :) camera works flawlessly and video capturing so far as well... ;)

Yes stock is really good, cause normally everything should work (Samsung knows best (^o^)).

But atm I've no reason to switch ?

One final question, have you ever had camera/video issues with aosp projects? i know our device can come with i believe a camera made by 3 different vendors you see, if you never had an issue then you most likely have the lucky/good camera :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] NexxP963:
@ metalgearhathaway

Just a small statement from me. It's quite interesting how different the S3 reacts.

In the past (6 month ago) I had always problems with camera and AOSP, so I switched back to stock based cr or pure stock. But now I 'm on ArchiDroid 2.5.1 and everything works, so there must be some significant improvements on this issue. Unfortunately it seems that there are Hardware combination that have still problems (like yours).

Hopefully you will be able to get it work. (maybe with ArchiDroid 2.x)

(thanks for your kernel profiles ?)

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Depressed T.Bear:
Hi, this is the first time my device is running asop :) I tested the camera/switching today -> works all as intended! :)

As NexxP963 said, you maybe should give ArchiDroid 2.5.1 another try! Or I'm really just one of the lucky guys who have this "good" camera like you said :victory:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
Cheers guys, that does give me some motivation to try. I'll do a nandroid this weekend (x2 as every time i really don't want a md5 checksum fail I get one lol) and see if my hardware combination has any success! I would miss stock camera app, burst mode and video record pause are handy features, but then I get some other goodies for being aosp. Well nothing wrong with playing, that's where my fun has always been! :)

I am working on a final improved boeffla profile for Sammy, I'll make sure I have that nailed to perfection today and play with aosp tomorrow!

[Galaxy S III Android Development] AssassinGEO:
How can camera failed error be hardware related? I'm not saying I don't believe,but I think mostly it depends on ROM itself or camera version which is installed.

For me,camera always worked flawlessly on temasek and with fixed camera libs,but when I tried slimkat,camera couldn't work normally even with fixed libs.

Well, tried it, camera looks like it might not be crashing anymore, no failed connects in my first tests. But, I have spent a good couple of weeks optimising my sammy installation, that I can't say there is anything different enough about 4.4.4 to make me switch back to it! I think, I will wait to see what a proper new version of android has to offer, when it arrives and matures. I missed stock camera instantly! CM camera and google camera are ok, but not a patch on the sammy software. Cheers for pointing out the things may have got better on that front though! :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Depressed T.Bear:
No problem, great to hear that it works anyway :)

I was also a great fan of the stock camera... Until I bought ProCapture on a sale event - in my opinion it's even better than sammys! :)
