Hey [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION] i am facing overheating issue after flashing 3.0 while on 2.5.3 every thing was just fine,

Any thoughts on this problem.?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] EP21:
Change cpu gouvernor (hope i wrote it right)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] amirsaishi:
Thanks for suggestion :) any governor you recommend.?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] EP21:
You can do so in settings >≥ performance>> cpu. Also i suggest lowering the clock speed to 1.2ghz, since you shouldn't feel any difference( i don't when i'm not gaming).

Gouvernor, probably pegasusq, but i'm not sure if you're not using it already. If that doesn't work play around with the few different gouverners in your kernel.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] vldesco:
What are you doing when phone overheat? Gaming (GT Motor Racing Academy / Asphalt 8 / Minion Rush) and Video playback (Youtube / Netflix) always over heat my phone (more than 50°C).

for normal use, temp is about 45°C, but that was the same inclusive with samsung stock rom.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ghostvirtualз:
sorry if this was answered before,i checked a few pages back and couldn't find the solution.

How can I flash this on my phone?

https://github.com/ArchiDroid/ArchiDroid/tree/i9300-lollipop

Do I just download the zip then flash it? Do I need gapps?

I am currently on the last version of 2.x.x,I think it's 2.5.3
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jtndinesh:
Hey guys! Just reporting in after using the 3.0 stable version for few days. Apart from the awesome smooth user experience (thanks archi)I would like to report super massive battery drain on my S3(like 10 percent drop in minutes of use on WiFi). I use my S3 pretty heavily and I wouldn't day my battery is top notch. Looking to get new batteries for Xmas (if I get my internship that is). Anyways the battery drop is pretty significant when compared to when I was on 2.5.3. Anyways this ROM is excellent. Thanks again :thumbup:

Whats new in V3?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] noobSU:
If the ROM flashed fine & booted up. It doesn't belong to how fast or how slow you went into the AROMA installer. The issue of AROMA is just random. I have checked that going as fast as possible. & as slow as i can. But issue can even be appeared.

Youtube is crashing your phone. Or battery life is poor are not the aroma culprits.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] NuK3DoOM:
Hi Archi, I am trying out your ROM, I am enjoying this so much!

Halo is such a good implementation! Also, all 240 DPI makes my S3 screen so perfect and lovely to look at!

Congratulations for your ROM, for me it is one of the best AOSP out there.

I have just one question. My Google Services Is draining a lot of battery (more than my screen).

I did a quick search and found that this is related to the new Google Framework. However, I could't find someone using this ROM with this problem.

Do you have any clues?

Thank you very much.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] STAticKY:
I find 245dpi more pleasurable as 240 puts menus up the top and 245 they are down the bottom where they are much more accessible.... For apps like root explorer.

TP.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xenoyosh:
My first install was 2.1.2. I updated to 2.1.3 as soon as it came out. As you can tell, I'm fairly new to your ROM. BTW, I love the ROM. I might shoot out a review at some point, but I'm a bit busy. All I can say is it truly delivers in speed. I'm running 2.1.4.1 right now after a mega wipe.

I tried to experiment a bit about what may have happened and I almost replicated the issue (on 2.1.4.1 no less). It turns out that your ROM can't move between orientations too fast. for example, if I flip the phone horizontally and the screen changes orientation, I shouldn't flip it at least for a couple of seconds to change orientations again. If I do that, the system seems to lock up and the display went totally dim. My phone restarted everytime I did that, so I think its definitely related to that issue. Luckily, I never experienced a wipe like that again so far, but I am getting worried in case I accidentally switch between orientations too fast. Might be worth looking into. :cool:

Still, I can't let go of the speed. I just have to be careful until that issue is patched. I'm back up and running and I was able to restore some data (SMS was gone and I had to spend a few hours reorganizing everything again.) I'm keeping my fingers crossed.:)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Hey. This issue also hits some of my local polish users on other forum. I don't know root issue yet but it's definitely related to google as you may know and I'm not sure if I can do anything with that... You can always disable "Google Core" in aroma but... that's not an option I guess :laugh:. We can only wait for next updates and hopefully CM team will handle that. Remember that CM is never finished - one commit fixes bug, second one adds improvements while third one breaks something.

DPIs <= 240 cause that, you're right. This is the reason why ArchiDroid default is 241 DPI, as this is the lowest DPI without any graphical glitches, which appeared on 240. Personally I'm using 240 and now 241 since my first implementation all the time, as I like "bigger" resolutions and smaller icons, thus it's proposed by me. If anyone doesn't feel comfortable with my choice there is always an option to choose either 280 or 320. Or even 240 with a little warning. 280 Is also a nice compromise between 320 and 240, especially for users who don't feel comfortable with 240 right after Stock's 320. It's a real pain, same as balanced colors instead of vivid ones :D.

Nice find. Unfortunately scenario is same as #1. CM 10.2 is still in let's say early stadium and it's nice for daily use but still minor bugs (like this one) may appear. The question is why it makes system unstable in terms of /data partition... Don't ask me...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] adiel91:
Hey

I dont quite understand

The problem apeared after updating from 2.1.2

Why flash a wbole new rom and then again full wipe and install arcidroid 2.1.4.1?

I'll Be glad if you could please explain

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Hey.

Your phone has many hidden partitions, low-level parts of the phone and other things which are more or less stable and don't change often. When you're flashing full firmware from Samsung you're updating a) Bootloader b) Params Partition c) Hidden Partition d) Recovery e) Kernel with ramdisk f) ROM (/system) g) Modem. And I may forgot about anything anyway.

As you can see custom rom updates... maximum of 3-4 of these things, no more. It is very good advice to make a full update from time to time to ensure that using custom rom, totally seperated from Samsung isn't in fact a problem of just having old firmware.

Example? Having old bootloader ( < XELLA) can result in a sudden death and usually noone cares about updating bootloader. Chance is ultra small because insecured microkernel in bootloader works only for about 3 seconds when you're rebooting your phone but the risk is very high in download mode (bootloader works in dl mode only). So in fact if you're using ONLY custom roms since let's say december 2012 then you have 1 year old partitions and bootloader.

It is always good to do an update from time to time. My last one was XXEMG4 (I have XXEMG4 bootloader, modem, etc) and I'm planning next "Update" when Samsung release Android 4.3.

Additionally you're making sure that you don't have any junk left, you're full wiping everything, and that's always good in case of problems.

And lastly CM is never finished and always has bugs.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] adiel91:
Thank you for your complete explanation.

So to be sure -

1. i need to download latest OFFICIAL samsung release? isn't that 4.1.2? or does they officialy released 4.2.2 already?

i'll be glad if you could please provide me with link.

2. i need to to make FULL WIPE, than flash samsung rom through ODIN only right?

3. after that, ROOT my phone 1st, install CWM (philz or something), and then flash latest Archi Droid, with also, a full wipe?

4. my most important question - when backing up using TB, is there any special remarks/suggestions?

like some settings/system apps/specific data that i should NOT restore after completing this " journey:D"?

Thanks again for your time to explain and help,

much appreciated.

:good::good:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Egozy:
You don't need to flash through ODIN and then re-root. It's enough to just flash the latest zip through Philz (after wipe) and then just flash Archi/
[Galaxy S III Android Development] adiel91:
אגוזי? חחח

According to Archi, for best result its better to flash latest through ODIN and not CWM..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Egozy:
I'll wait for him to reply, but I think flashing through CWM should do the trick.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Exactly but not really. First of all make /efs backup because XXEMG4+ modem changes efs. Copy this backup to your external card and to PC to be sure (in .img format and .tar.gz or .tar). Then enter your current recovery, format /system /cache /data /preload, and reboot to bootloader/download mode. There is an option in recovery for that (old PhilZ/CWM -> Advanced -> Reboot Bootloader. New PhilZ/Cwm(?) -> Power Off Options). Now you need to download latest software directly from samsung in .zip format. Unpack it, extract .tar.md5 file, put in PDA tab in Odin, flash. After short while your new system will boot. Make sure you can make calls and your IMEI is right (*#06#). You need to make sure it does not start with 0049 or says null/null. Usually it should not but you have backup of /efs just in case. Now if everything is right put AD on your internal memory, then reboot to download mode once again (vol-down+home+power), open Odin, UNTICK auto-reboot and flash latest PhilZ Touch Recovery. Phone won't reboot this time, unplug the cable, hold vol-up+home+power for about 7 seconds, phone will automatically reboot to recovery without launching your stock rom (it may override recovery, that's why you don't want auto reboot). Now you can just full wipe once again and flash AD.

It's IMPORTANT to flash latest pure-stock from Samsung through Odin because only Odin package can update low-level parts of the phone - bootloader, params, hidden partitions and so on.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Egozy:
Would using Mobile Odin to the same?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Nope. You can not update low level parts from running phone. It's the same as updating Windows through Windows.

Odin and download mode is the must. Yes you can flash rom but not update low-level parts of the phone.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] adiel91:
Thanks! How to format preload folder usibg philz?

Plus, where do i find latest official samsung rom?

And about my question about TB backups? Can you recommend anything regarding that?

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
In Philz select Wipe Data/Factory Reset => Clean to install new rom. That's all you need to do.

Samsung firmwares -> http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/. For now newest is XXEMH1 afaik so you can download it.

About TB backups I suggest moving them to external sd card.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] adiel91:
Thankg again. about TB i meant if there's any settings/system apps/data

that i should not restore after wiping&instaling all

EDIT:

i see latest firmware for i9300 is XXEMF6 (from Iraq)

is that ok to use?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Egozy:
MH1 was released after MF6.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
It's always safier to start clean and not restoring anything as long as possible.

And yeah use XXEMH1 (PDA) for Netherlands instead, because it's newer.

Hi,

enter to Boeffla app. On top you will see "Default" and click (touch) there. These is the profile selector (in that place you can mek multiple profiles, for example a low batt profile to save the last "galons of energy"). I that screen below it exists a button "load foreign", that load the file that you download and put like a new profile. And Done!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] fre78:
I think I solved the issue I had. There was an app which I used for rebooting (Reboot Menu Widget by tmlhodge) that is the culprit.

In v2.5.3 there was no problem using this app, but in v3.0.0 it's a different story.

Luckily, there are many alternatives on the market.

In case I didn't thank you yet for all of your hard work, thank you Archi.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] spark2331995:
i installed v3 with archi kernel that came within

the default settings in stweaks was cpu was over clocked to 1600mhz

so i think you should clock it to 1400mhz (thats what i did)

and for me pegasusq with deadline causes no overheating whatsoever even while playing hd games :)

and if this doesnt solve your problem then you can basically try re-flashing as for me sometimes the problems like this go away by re-flashing :p

[Galaxy S III Android Development] mchughman:
I was having the same problem and this solution worked.

I have a murata wifi chip so the file ".cid.info" contains the text "murata". So find out the manufacturer for the BCM profiling (murata, semcosh etc.) and create this file. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, restore back to stock and find this file in /data/.cid info. Remember that it is hidden, so be sure to enable 'show hidden files' in your file manager of choice.

Trouble was that this file kept on being wiped/deleted on each reboot.

I had to created a init.d script to create the file on each boot.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] maash10:
thanks for the reply mchughman

isn't there anyway to find out the manufacturer other than reverting back to stock. when i installed AD 3 i saw in aroma about this BCM profile thing i think and i chose the option archidetect and that detected semcosh automatically. does that mean that i must write semcosh or stock firmware option is the only choice i have ?

I will try with semcosh and let you know. :good:

P.S i reverted back to stock sometimes early but that doesn't also seemed to work. anyway i will try your suggestion and let you know.
