[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goatman101:
Thanks for sharing Chris. I flashed last night. Will report back tonight if there are any issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dushotgun:
Just fyi on the Cyanogen Twitter account they said to not flash today's official nightly build (9-7-13)!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] khymbote:
Chris with your build from yesterday..... Went from 1x to LTE area and no data. I only had to toggle my radio off and then on and it came back.

Edit. My bad I was still on mastas 9/5 and that happened.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Was going to say, only time I had no data when testing those changes was when I was in an area with no service (the basement of a big brick building )
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] khymbote:
Right now on Chris's build and my signal strength is worse. In my house I usually have two to three bars and I only have one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] airmaxx23:
So does anyone know what changed between the 8/28 and 8/31 nightlies and after to cause certain themes to completely mess up the OS and need a complete device wipe to fix? I tried the unofficial 9/7 build and once my theme (Cobalt Inferno) is applied the device gets stuck on the splash screen and need a complete internal storage wipe to get it up and running again. Backups won't restore, dirty flashing doesn't work...etc.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hybridnoob:
You may need to talk to the Theme Dev. I'm using Betterbean without any issues on and up to 9/5 (official & Masta Builds).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] airmaxx23:
I found out it isn't the theme, I just can't get the newer builds to survive a reboot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Restola:
Masta's builds task wye signal bars to match tw (ie more bars at the same signal strength). Not sure if Chris's do but try comparing the numbers, but the bars.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
He used to use magic, don't think he does now cuz I've seen 0 bars which is fugly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Masta tweaked the signal bars to read out like touchwiz but he does not release those tweaks .. Oh and when I lost data it came back when I walked back into a signal area
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] airmaxx23:
It turns out it isn't the theme after all, I just can't survive a reboot on the newer builds. I just installed the unofficial 9/7 build and GAPPS (4.3) and rebooted before even signing in and I'm stuck on the splash screen. This is after a complete device/data wipe.

Edit: I tried a third time and get the same results after signing into Google and rebooting, stuck on the splash screen.

Any suggestions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
What recovery , are you installing from internal or external
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] airmaxx23:
TWRP, I'll try wiping and installing from internal in a few minutes. I am able to restore a backup from the extsdcard once I completely wipe internal storage.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hybridnoob:
Just FYI - I've seen many have problems using TWRP to clean install. Possibly partition issues. Some solved the problem by switching to CWM to clean install, then used TWRP without issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] airmaxx23:
When did the TWRP issues start? I've been using it for a couple years and never had an issue.

---------- Post added at 11:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:33 AM ----------

I just tried installing through internal storage with TWRP and got the same results.

Edit: I just flashed CWM and I'll give that a try then report back.

Edit 2: I get the same results when flashing through CWM.

This all started happening around the 8/31 build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] airmaxx23:
Where can I find the 8/28 through 8/31 Nightlies, they aren't on get.cm, I want to try to find out which nightly starts causing issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Check goo.im
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hybridnoob:
Are you doing a factory reset and formatting data using CWM before installing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] airmaxx23:
Yes, I did a complete wipe (data, factory reset, system).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hybridnoob:
That sucks, man. I'll let the other guys chime in, but at this point, I would Odin back to complete stock and start over.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BrianAllred:
Interesting state statistics. Never entered deep sleep.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] airmaxx23:
Yes it does, I'm running 10.1.3 just fine for now though. Since I completely wiped internal storage would Odin-ing back to stock and starting over possibly fix anything?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hybridnoob:
I'm not sure, but your phone is behaving abnormally. That's why I would go back to a known good state. If you continue to have issues, and want to upgrade, but can't, that's what I'd do. If it's fine on the stable build and you like it, then wait (for now).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sivarticus85:
Bluetooth not turning off on Chris's 9-7 build. Clean flash. Had to fc to stop it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Not had that problem even used beam
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sivarticus85:
Not sure why... I'll run some tests when I have time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Can you get me a logcat :) .. Just open a terminal on your phone do

su

logcat

Then toggle Bluetooth on and off, wait a few min . copy and paste the text into a .txt file and upload it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kidhudi:
please disregard......

Is it smart to format the internal sd card before flashing or is that just looking for trouble. like loosing imei and such?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PsiPhiDan:
This is a great question - I don't think I'd honestly ever figure it out without reading about it. This is the first Android update that doesn't excite me at all, mostly because my daily usage doesn't involve any of the things I'm reading were changed.

In fact, I'd venture to say that this update went improve the user experience for most users. The techie ones, yes. But the average cell phone user in this country, the ones who still don't know they have NFC and other cool things like that... no, I don't see them benefiting from 4.3.

My only hope is that things are smoother than ever, a la project butter. But that may be the only real improvement I see as the end user.

Please note that I'm not trashing this or Android 4.3 in general. I'm just commenting on it from my personal perspective. I realize that it will be a huge update for many people, depending on their usage.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kidhudi:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hilbe:
Seem to be having weird charging issues on 8/2. Seems to take forever to charge on USB, maybe the kernel doesn't have fast charge?

I did a clean install this time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
Check CPU usage, is surfaceflinger still losing its **** when plugged into USB? Don't think it does it on a wall charger.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hilbe:
Not seeing that. Android System has 5%, total usage is 15%.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] damnyouwaffles:
Just installed blek's 802 and had no mobile network connection.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
8/2 build in the OP

-- Front and Rear cameras should be working fairly well with stock camera, use FOCAL at your own risk. (reboot after it crashes)

-- MMS recipient selector got ported over

-- removed Standalone Power Collapse to see if it was causing the screen on delay

-- repo sync @ 1:10 PM EST
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] damnyouwaffles:
Downloading and testing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dpaine88:
Damn, screen still slow to turn on with latest build
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] khymbote:
I might have missed where you mentioned what the actual issue is. Is it slow to turn on when you hit your power button or is it slow somewhere else?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
When it happens, you see the buttons light up and it takes another second or 2 for the screen to come on. Seems to come and go for me and haven't had it yet on this build. Gonna keep an eye on it over the weekend.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] khymbote:
If I sit here and keep turning on and off my screen then yes I see where it happens.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
These are still very early builds. Mine should be no different from anybody elses besides what is listed in the OP. If others are tweaking theirs behind the scenes, invisiblek or aeroevan for example, im sure those changes will get pushed soon enough if they are really responsible for the lack of screen on lag.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] damnyouwaffles:
It really only happens for me if I turn the screen on and off fast. If you let it sit for more than a few seconds its fine. Also Masta, your ROM is running perfect so far. The animations are a little slow but that's expected since it hasn't really been optimized yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikejr83:
Where does Romdb put its download?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] khymbote:
should be sdcard\download. That's where mine go.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] necropuppy:
download folder.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] khymbote:
I'm not knocking your build and I hope others aren't either. You have had the most solid build I have used on my phone as far as ASOP. 10.1 and today with 10.2. I know I had a gallery issue that was resolved when I deleted the built in gallery2.apk and replaced with one from 10.1. That was for yesterdays build and today's build has been fine for gallery and camera.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PsiPhiDan:
Thanks - I definitely learned a few things from that! I'm hoping the performance boost and battery gains are noticeable. Those will be my favorite features. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bluezr1:
I clean flashed Chris's most recent build (no mods, stock kernel) and my data is equivalent to any of the other 3 (stock, not rooted) S3's in my house.

I went in the basement where we can only receive 3g and it switched right over. Went up the stairs and by the time I got to the top step it switched back to LTE. I did this a few times with each time having the same outcome. Each time I would check to see if data was working using a speed test app, and sure enough all was good.

I turned on Bluetooth (although I didn't pair it with anything yet) and then turned it off. It turned off and then after a few seconds it turned itself back on and then quickly turned off again, and has been off ever since.

I played 3 turns of Scramble With Friends and 3 of Words With Friends without any hiccups at all.

I'm an extremely happy person right now. This is the best my phone has ran since bringing it home back in October and immediately gaining root.

I still had to install SuperSu to overcome the problem with OS monitor, not a big deal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sivarticus85:
It's working now. I think my car Bluetooth is interrupting it. Toggles just fine on my headphones. My Mazda is a little weird sometimes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Alright cool

---------- Post added at 07:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:19 PM ----------

Thought I would bring up that all the reverts I posted to fix the data dropping problem but 1 were merged in from the review by Shareef then he could not figure out what broke it :P
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hans5849:
Official or unofficial. For unofficial check romdb
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Stealth111:
Correct me if I am wrong, that would explain exactly why I have been feeling the whole time that data/handoff was NEVER a problem on Mastas Unofficial builds he was putting out, right up until the day or so that they started releasing Official 10.2's...

Not to be a ****, but things were buttery smooth with those unofficials, then BAM!, they started the officials and things went rapidly downhill. I get that there are a lot of things that have been fixed, and made better since then, but don't wreck data, and then keep moving forward like it didn't happen. Data/handoff/stalls SUCK right now......

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Shareef merged a bunch of stupid ass SamsungQualcomRil and NV/RUIM stuff like right when official nightlies came out and they really f*cked things up .. Those reverts are all Shareefs merges from gerrit (things he gave the go ahead to ) but one and that one was by toastcfh but he does more fixing than breaking so we can give toast a break
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
I actually got data drops on my build today, took the subway to the Yankee game, had no signal on the subway and when I got to the stadium data would not connect (LTE), toggled mobile data and it came back so I think the root of all evil is elsewhere in the ril code
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Hmmmm very odd ... I saw this today http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/50036/

The last revert is ril code which shareef pushed ... Read the comments on the dctracker file on that to shareef was saying that it was going to break things then he said that it was a better version of his patch
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
Chris where u from? I live in Hells Kitchen. Brutal Yanks game to go to. Actually this whole series has been terrible. I wouldn't count the service in the area of Yankee stadium. Even on TW I have problems up there. Season ticket holder here so I would know. I can't even check in on FB half the time up there. And forget about sending MMS
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hoban_eris:
Google Maps Navigation-induced overheating issue

For at least a couple months (and under both CM10.1 and 10.2) prolonged Google Maps Navigation (e.g. 30-40 minutes straight) causes my phone to overheat, become unstable/unresponsive, and eventually power off. The battery drain is pretty crazy when navigating too. Any tips on how to deal with this? I've tried different kernels, governors, undervolting, lowering max CPU frequency, and haven't been able to work around it. Anyone else experiencing this? Any way to fix it? Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sivarticus85:
Man no kidding. I was at the Alabama game last Saturday and even on full 4g I couldn't hardly do anything. And I was running TW at the time. Too much bandwidth usage going on at the Georgiadome.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
I live out on Long Island, Smithtown area, went to the game today as I haven't been there in a couple years, and yes it was a brutal game, we were pretty much out of it by the middle of the 4th inning when they went up 12-3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidfreak02:
I had to revert back to 10.2 because the last nightly build update crash on me. Couldn't get pass the gs3 splash screen with the alien droid. Anybody had this problem. I usually take the update through the cm updater I don't know if that what cause it or not
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Androideka5:
I have the same issue (I even use bluetooth at the same time for music) but, I negated the heating a little bit. Using KT747, I set the GPS governor to Powersave. I would imagine you could even change it to Abyssplug, or Pegasusq, set the max MHz to 400 something or a little lower, then fiddle with the governor settings so it hotplugs aggressively, so that the 2nd core is off as much as possible. I think you can automate that process with Tasker, too. Other than all that, I don't know anything else.

If you're responding to me, make sure to quote me so I get an immediate email
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
That's pretty funny, I just drove through Smithtown to get back to school tonight. Long island all the way!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Maninthemirror:
Getting a sim card removed error today followed by a complete drop in service. Anyone else?

Sent from my SCH-I535
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sivarticus85:
Are you running a custom kernel? I've read in other forums that this can happen if you install it without wiping system and caches then installing the rom and gapps again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hoban_eris:
I tried out navigating with Waze today and experienced the same issue. If I lower the CPU enough to potentially make a difference, the phone will freeze somewhat through the trip.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
When did this problem start for you guys?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hoban_eris:
I can't say for sure, but it's been a few months (at least since CM10.1). Perhaps since the 3.4 kernel was merged?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jalewis:
Just so you know, I haven't had any issues with navigation. I don't use it much, but used it for a 4.5 hour trip recently in and out of cell service with no issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Reborn627:
I used My Tracks for a 26 mile hike on Saturday without any issues on the 9/5 build. Ran in airplane mode all day and it tracked my position nicely.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bitterroots:
Car dock and voice input

I wanted to see if there has been any progress on this issue. I did a clean install of the 9/5 release and tested it this morning. When connected to car dock and USB audio enabled, I can't use voice typing. Any music playing stops playing (like normal) but voice input will not work. If I am on Google Search, it reads "initializing" but hangs there. When I back out, music resumes. All is well when USB audio is disabled.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] CrustyMcLovin:
26 miles. Day Hike.

Impressive!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Did this ever work on CM10.2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Reborn627:
Thanks but it was more like sheer idiocy. A plan change on the fly. Not sure I'll do that again. I was glad football started Sunday. Gave me an excuse to be horizontal all day, lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bitterroots:
I am not sure. When I started on 10.2, USB audio did not work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Try tonight's build. Got USB audio working without reverting a bunch of stuff so maybe it killed 2 birds with one stone?!

Uploading now :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
Ohhh really? We're going to rename you to Mr Magician lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
LOL, I wish it was my own knowledge that fixed it lol, http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/47849/ , I merely followed Arne's comments. :) I asked invisiblek to put the commits up on gerrit for it, but he didnt respond. Maybe tomorrow? :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
9/9 build in the OP

-- had to leave the NAV bar cherrypicks out, needed rebasing

-- got USB Dock Audio working without reverts, so our audio is back on track with official.. removed revert.

-- 2 RIL cherrypicks.. possibly help with the 1X to LTE data drop some are seeing

-- repo sync at 3pm EST
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
On today's build, I am able to speak with Google now while my phone is on my usb dock. So I hope it works for you! :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goldsmitht:
wooo hooo... downloading at a blazing 96KiB/Sec on FULL UP 4G LTE... full bars, nothing else going on.

VZW throttling, or too many people trying to download at the same time. You be the judge!

:confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BrianAllred:
Dirty flashing just 9/6 wiped Google Play Music and Books, apps and data, off my device completely. Not a big deal, just thought I'd warn others.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
9/9 you mean? I have Google Play Music installed and had no problem when dirty flashing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BrianAllred:
Yeah, 9/9, sorry. Interesting, when I booted up, my icon in my dock had turned into the Android guy, tapping it said app not installed, and my widget was gone. Reinstalled from Play Store and I'm re-downloading all my music and books right now.

What should I check to make sure that doesn't happen next time?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Downloaded it to my computer, was getting 9.6Mbps.. which is about the limit of my connection here at work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Thats really weird. I both dirty flashed (no wipes) and almost clean flashed (wiped caches & system) and all my apps are where they were before.

Probably a fluke, those apps aren't included in GAPPS correct.. so there should be no reason for a flash to delete them out of the blue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BrianAllred:
Alright. I never flash nightlies anywhere I can't easily recover anything, so it's not a big deal, I just thought it was weird. I'll watch to see if it happens again tomorrow.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] khymbote:
I'm out of town this week. Have to wait till I get back to the hotel to test but I don't have a dock so it doesn't natter for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] khymbote:
I don't know about Verizon throttling anything. I had over 22 gigs of data last month.

I love unlimited data.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cynikalJ:
Installed the 9/9 and had no data my entire commute to work or at my parents house when I usually do. Kept cycling no data to 3g....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
I expect the rat cherry picks to be the cause... Apparently some uses on the m7spr had no data at all with the patch
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RRF12:
Running 9/09 without any problems, data has been fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
Oh yeah, that RAT commit is bad mojo, you get a com.android.phone crash when toggling wifi off while connected to wifi.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MrBrady:
Curious if there is a write-up somewhere on how to do the "Tweaked CDMA & LTE signal-bar display" listed in the OP, on other ROMs. I know it's placebo, but still nice to see.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] culpn8r:
Is anyone able to do sync with the fitbit app?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goldsmitht:
Anyone having issues with alarm clock shutting itself off? I know I'm hitting snooze, but alarm hasn't been snoozing. Or if anyone knows a better alarm
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hybridnoob:
Try Timely in the Play Store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sbenson1226:
Second this. Timely is amazing. Been using it since it launched a couple weeks ago. Might be the best designed android app of all time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mds96:
So what's the verdict, stay on Chris's latest build, or clean flash Masta's build? I'm seeing mixed posts about 4g working and not working. Chris's build is running great for me, that's why I'm not sure about the switch.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RRF12:
I was on Chris`s build now I am on masts 9/09 build both run very good without problems. I flashed masta·s 9/09 over cm 9/09 , because Bluetooth will not turn off in cm build. Works great in masta build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jalewis:
I'm on masta's 9/9 build too. Data is working fine for me, although I haven't been in any areas where I've been down to 1x yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goldsmitht:
on 9/9; not sure if it was a data drop or not, but signal bars where white (using purple theme) and then came back. BUT travel routinely through Baltimore / DC METRO Trains and Subway system with lots of zero signal areas. would lose where i was supposed to, but always came back

:good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bitterroots:
Grrrr. Dirty flashed yesterday's build with no luck. I will try a clean flash tonight. Everything else is smooth.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PerCompLLC:
FYI for those that may be interested. Just tried KT747 with masta's 9/9 build for battery life. Kernel worked flawlessly, but the Candy Crush crash bug is back with KT747. I reflashed masta's 9/9 build to overwrite the kernel and all is well again. YMMV
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WhammyDroid:
I pointed out the kernel fix to KT. Hopefully he implements it.
