What kernel are you using?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] giro8888:
Weather widget won't show up anyhow i mean whenever i tap the widget it wont interact so it would update to current's location weather.it says there no data.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sentinel196:
Are you sure you have location access enabled under settings? It's off by default and won't work without it.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] giro8888:
Yeah location services enabled.anyway thats not a big deal my friend.this rom runs smooth.no lags no fc's.all worth it

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sentinel196:
Strange. Maybe try updating to the latest Google Now, Google Search and Google Maps if you haven't already, then wipe cache and try again.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sentinel196:
Very strange. maybe try flashing a CM10.1 nightly instead and let me know if it's any different.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] djclark25:
Just tried playing a few videos I have downloaded on the phone and they are playing fine through MX player. I haven even tuned pegasysq for even more battery life so not performance settings and every video played fine. Tried MP4's and FLV's.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sentinel196:
Likewise. No issues on my devices.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] giro8888:
Done that before hand...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sentinel196:
In that case, I'm out of suggestions. Sorry.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ajgftw:
Hi mate, just quickly answer your question, the multi-window feature is reliant on stock Samsung firmware. As you are (hopefully) aware, this not a stock Samsung based Rom, thus unfortunately that feature is incompatible.

If this feature is a "must have" for you, then you may need to stay on Samsung Roms, but.... If your feeling adventurous try this Rom...I bet you won't regret it ;)

**Just some additional reading for those interested**

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Undgrand:
Okay im going to give it a try :beer::)

So you said you should stay on the Kernel which is included in the Rom?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sentinel196:
You just have to long press to resize widgets :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] bixano:
OMG it's look amazing !

could someone post a benchmark score with this rom ?

i think all the SGS3 devices have a problema with 3D grafics in CM, I can only get 1300 points in Antutu ( 3D benchmark) the total score genaraly is 15500 its not bad but with stock I can get 1600 points in 3D benchmark ! and 16500 in total score, by the way I will test this rom until I arived at home!

sorry my bad english !

and tanks for your hard work with this rom !
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ekie84:
So flash the rom first,boot the phone then go recovery & flash the gapps?not the usual flash rom,gapps then reboot? :p:D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Meemo23:
Download the rom and gapps put them both in your memory card. Go to recovery and install rom first and when the installation of the rom finishes you then install gapps straight after. Then when you start you get the setup menu and you're sorted..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ajgftw:
Nice to see an Aussie (I'm assuming from the .com.au web address?) putting up such a promising Rom!

Downloading now! :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ekie84:
I did whats on the OP,testing it right now :D hope the battery life is that good

How do you go from CWM to TPWR (or what is the name :p)! i'm on OmegaROM now, but the battery dies in 10hours.. so I'd like a new rom with great battery, im happy if I get two days :D!

Sentinel I restored my call log using my backup pro... But while scrolling thru the call log.. Am getting a message saying contacts stopped working. Any fix for that?

Here's the screenshot
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sentinel196:
If you're restoring your contacts from a non CM Rom it gonna have problems. Best to sync with Google.

CM stores contacts and linkages a little differently from some other ROMs.

I really want this rom but i dont want the /0 to be added to my sg3 : /sdcard0/storage/0/ it killed my backup before...

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sentinel196:
The 0 folder is required for multi-user support in Android 4.2.2. If you plan on moving to 4.2.2 you'll have to bite the bullet at some stage.

I know what you mean though...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MauroG:
I'm pretty new with my GS3 but I'm coming from a LG swift which I used to flash lots of ROMs, so i'm giving this one a try, having around 8 - 12 hours of battery with my use, so hope this one gives me more :D... Im using ReVolt right now :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ajgftw:
OK got the ROM installed, restored my backups, applied my favourite theme. Looks good, feels good too. :)

I'll use it for a week and decide if I'll stick with it permanently.

Just a few quick questions,

I'm missing some of the settings options from previous ROMs I've used, ie Beanstalk and DeviantXOne. Do you have plans to expand the customization options to the depth of these roms?

In the meantime, do you have the option to enable the navbar available? (I couldn't see it, thought maybe it was hidden)

Happy to enable it via other means if its not there, was just wondering.

Thanks for the ROM!

I'll keep you updated with my user experience. :thumbup:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sentinel196:
I don't plan on adding too many extra customisations as in my expeirence, they tend to slow things down and eat battery.

I did a poll of my current user base on Facebook last week and 90% of users said they prefer extreme battery life over heavy modification options. Feel free to vote if you like :)

That said, there are still lots of customisation options under "settings- system". Not as many as you get on an AOKP ROM though.

I figure people are always welcome to make their own adjustments and flash mods etc. This way users have the freedom to do what they want, with a solid framework to start from.

I think of it kind of like cars... Most people world rather buy a stock car that's fast, reliable and economical, and modify it themselves, than buy something thats already modified and has had the t!ts thrashed off it.

Happy to report over 200 downloads in the first 12 hours which is a new record for me!! Thanks for the support guys!!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ajgftw:
The stock kernel will give you Rom experience as intended by the dev. So start with that.

Once it's flashed and your happy make a back up and you can always experiment with the other compatible kernels. :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mr.Nitro:
Nw i can say that i have Awesome s3 xD

Battery is excellent ...

Thnx dev :)

waiting ut new update ..

its my stable rom for ever ..:o
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Undgrand:
Wow this **** is awesome :eek:

Super fluid and super battery friendly!

Thank you very much!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] arjunpaliath:
Hi,

I am trying out this ROM and am surprised to have an amazing battery life with even heavy usage.

And the camera bug is also not present.

This is a great ROM and I cant wait for your updates.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] evertjr:
Just tried this ROM. The most reliable AOSP so far! Great job!

There is only 1 problem... Dungeon Hunter 4 didn't work, I think it is a CM bug, I hear that this problem affect some other games too... Could you look into it? Maybe there is a workaround...

Anyway thank you for this rom!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mafioso:
Any exdialer users here ?

I'm getting wierd bug with exdialer on this rom...Nothing happens when I try to edit a contact using exdialer contacts (usually this step open the stock contacts app edit functionality)....Any solutions ? It used to work in fine in all TW or CM roms i tried previously.

Happy to see so many good experiences above, and almost 1200 downloads in one week!!

I'm currently working on v4.40 so stay tuned.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] erto90:
i don't know if is my problem or not,but haven't experienced this before

i got a question

to increase battery life, have you increased heartbeat notification time? because my talk and whatsapp, if in deepsleep, and not always, have an high delay..

Is kernel related or?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Psycho_666:
ok, flashed this rom now and started completely fresh, so no more dual-boot siyah kernel...just stock rom+kernel.

games run flawless again, and it feels much smoother.

so siyah kernel does NOT make this rom feel like it should.

but on a different note: what apps are recommended for extra tweaks? pimpmyrom? setcpu for OC+UV? android tweaker?

maybe somebody already tested some apps?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] usopjidin:
Dear Sentinel196, can i use this rom on i9305 lte?

Anyone else having an issue when flashing this ROM they loose all mobile reception?

I also seem to have the issue with the latest nightlies aswell
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sentinel196:
1200 downloads and no-one else has reported that issue. You didn't install the version for i9305 by accident?

Make sure you follow the installation instructions in the OP.

Have you set up your APN settings?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] BenMHarvey:
Definitely installing the i9300

Not sure the APN settings would affect the lack of reception but I will investigate

Hey it seems a bit laggy as in the animation is not that smooth after I installed some apps. Is it due to the apps that I installed or the system itself?

Hi Sentinel !

I am very interested in your ROM and would like to flash it ... however, I would like to know if the softs and base band of my SGS3 will or will not cause issues with the ROM ; I have the following (stock ROM from Orange):

- Android 4.1.2,

- base band: BVELK1

- kernel 3.0.31-742798,

- version: I9300XXELLA

Thank you very much for your help
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Tavrinlol:
The ROM is epic and just what I needed: CM10.1 with a very nice battery life, but there's one bug I experienced, after I take one picture, the camera app says "Can't connect to the camera". Any help?

Thanks! :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sentinel196:
Hi mate. Yeah the camera seems to have a few querks. Hopefully all fixed in v4.40. In the meantime there was an alternate camera app shared a few pages ago.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sentinel196:
It should be OK, but I'm not totally familiar with your baseband specifically. Maybe one of the other guys with more sgs3 experience can confirm?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] giro8888:
Hi mate.that would be fine..baseband version should be BUELK1 not BVELK1.that is from previous versions.he's good to go for a flash.just do a full wipe once again..;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] erto90:
An other nice thing,present in CyanogenMod

The possibility to mute the ringtone putting the phone face down

I use a lot this thing,would be nice to see it here too!

Hopefully your right! If not the best bet will be to remove the micro sd card and begin data recovery via pc.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] giro8888:
Yeah lets just hope mate.he's got nothing to loose if he would try that. ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] tarmacmaster:

No really, the battery life depends strongly to the user. You can't say how long the battery will last.

Try it out and check yourself ;)

Save battery by switching of fast democracy, download the app for it on play store by gokhumorol and then just switch it off. Keep it on though if you're with three every other network doesn't need it.. And it wastes battery. Also download rescan media root and disable scann at start up make it faster at boot aswell.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] giro8888:
oh i'm so sorry about that mate..philz touch recovery is my best recommend for you...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sentinel196:
It's highly unlikely you're data is actuallly gone, unless you accidentlly wiped it in recovery.

Please read the FAQ link in the OP for instructions. Android 4.2.2 handles SD card folders differently in order to support multi-user. Your data should be in a folder called "0".

Open CM File Manager from within the ROM and you should be able to see your data if it's there.

Is there any way to enable zram on the stock kernel?

And is there any tweak-app that works on this rom so I can disable the boot animation and some other tweaks?

Zram - No you'll have to use a different kernel.

Tweaks - ROM Toolbox should work in theory, but I haven't tried it myself. Nandroid backup first.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Psycho_666:
Too bad, was hoping there was some way to force it in the kernel, since this works better than Siyah kernel.
