They don't understand how runtimes work and the reason art breaks everything when you use it. You have to use a gapps package that is compatible with art (specifically the dex files) for it to even work
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AndroidCrusader:
Here is my recipe flashed in this order after clean wipe. After booting I installed SuperSU from Play store, updated its binaries, enabled ART, then rebooted. It hangs on first boot but reboots itself after a couple of minutes. Then do your thing!

If these links do not work, you can find them easily enough.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
DONT USE ART , NOT ONLY IS NOT READY FOR PUBLIC USE BUT BECAUSE IT IS A RUNTIME CHANGE MANY APPS WILL NOT RUN AT ALL WITH IT.. IT IS NOT MEANT TO BE USED BY THE PUBLIC IT IS MEANT FOR DEVELOPERS SO THEY CAN ADD SUPPORT FOR IT IN THEIR APPS SO WHEN THE TIME COMES FOR ART TO REPLACE DALVIK ALL APPS WORK CORRECTLY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AndroidCrusader:
Hmmm..... I must be asleep or something then, cause I am doing everything I have ever done on this phone right now with ART: WiFi, tether, streaming audio and video, camera, 200 plus apps, etc.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] o0BlacknesS0o:
I see that there are cm11 builds available by masta... since the op doesn't discuss those... I'm just wondering if there's anything that's a known issue besides art that may require an extra package to flash or anything... about to flash... thanks guys
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlokos:
Masta's builds are solid and have the same issues as encountered on the other 4.4 builds. Depending on your phone, you may encounter problems. On my phone, I sometimes have problems with the FFC FC'ing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Front facing camera is borked, it literally just had a fix pushed to gerrit 10 ~ 15 min ago by desterly
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlokos:
That's great, but it was working on sspencer's builds. I know his early builds substituted a 4.3 camera, but I believe he later used the 4.4 camera.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] o0BlacknesS0o:
OK... so far so good except one MAJOR PROBLEM... It's not reading my external SD card? Any thoughts? Completely clean flash (as in format data) using mastas gapps
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Use mastas latest build.. Many early builds had that problem, took myself and aeroevan a while to fix it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] o0BlacknesS0o:
I did use mastas latest build and I just flashed spencers latest build and still have the same problem... I wiped everything except SD card and formatted data before flashing either one... I used the gapps that each dev recommended and the exact flashing directions given when given

Could it be because I have a 64gb card?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Is your sdcard formatted in exfat ? That would be why
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] o0BlacknesS0o:
Idk lol... never did anything to it... bought and started using and never had an issue
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
Most 64gb come in exfat
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] o0BlacknesS0o:
I guess that's why then... Well I guess I'm going back to another ROM cuz I definitely need my sdcard... Otherwise both of the ROMs are smooth and seem quite stable from what I saw so far
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
I do not think vold has support for exfat yet in cm11
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
Move all contents of it to computer, format sd card in fat32 and put everything back on it and you'll be fine
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] o0BlacknesS0o:
How do I format to fat32... sorry if this is noob stuff but I've never had to do it yet... Is there a tool or program I need?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
Use adaptor to hook to computer and right click and select format
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] o0BlacknesS0o:
Lol... now I feel stupid... Thanks for the help
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
We all have our moments

Dirty flashing do I have to flash gapps ever time on this ROM everything working great on 10/2 thxs

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikejr83:
I did not flash gapps when dirty flashing from 11/27 to 12/2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ugachris:
Anybody else having trouble getting Calendar to let you login? Usually that's set up when you first sign in to Google when setting up the phone. When I go into the app, it asks me to sign in and then says trouble communicating with Google's servers.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Just wait a bit
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlokos:
The FFC works on masta's 12/3 build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Yeah, masts built with the pick... I work with masta Chris blek desterly etc daily
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] phoenixaldana01:
Got some new battery settings in 10/3 build running great thx again
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikejr83:
I had this issue. I removed my Google account from the phone, cleared data on the Google apps, and then added my Google app back. Things worked fine after that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Yep I had to do the same thing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mcdevil58:
Idk if you guys had this answered but if I use the stock browser and not chrome I get it to work, I hope this helps you guys too ha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
I found only LTE seems to be an issue. I was told it might be an ipv6 thing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Nard ... Dundun dun lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] caifan:
Yes it works for me also. However, 3rd party camera apps still force close when using the FFC. Is this normal?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
Yes, because the 3rd party apps don't have the proper patches. That and d2 is using ancient blobs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikejr83:
Question about blobs. From what I've been able to gather during some Google searches is that these blobs are for drivers which, due to the fact that our OEM hasn't released the drivers, are required to be pulled from an official OEM release, correct? If that is the case and Samsung hasn't made any recent releases then where does the "ancient blobs" remark come from?

If our blobs haven't been updated from Samsung why do camera apps function differently on TW vs. AOSP, specifically on our S3 running CM11?

You'll have to forgive my ignorance as I've never looked into any of the camera API code nor do I have any idea how drivers or blobs work. Just curious. I seriously wish I had the time I had when I was in college to look into this stuff and really learn it. .NET development is kind of boring me at the moment.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NedDasty:
reproducible camera problem

I've found an issue that causes the camera to crash every time:

Take a photo

Swipe to look at photo

Press "back"

This causes the camera to crash and requires a reboot. However, if you swipe back to the camera instead of pressing back, everything works fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Samsung updates their blobs in touchwiz and generally they have a camerawrapper compiled as well, we don't have that most of our blobs are old because we are using a 3.4.x kernel which uses a iommu heap instead of the pmem heap that Samsung uses stock in their 3.0.x kernel which their blobs need . that is the reason our blobs are so old

---------- Post added at 10:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:43 PM ----------

Logcat or it didn't happen =P
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikejr83:
So in other words no big improvements till Samsung or some carrier gets around to releasing an update for US S3s, correct? Sigh, I guess it may be awhile before that happens. I wish after 2 years OEM's would either have to support an upgrade a year or release the source... That'll never happen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
No, no improvements until Samsung decides to say f*ck the 3.0.x kernel on the S3 or another device with the adreno 225 gets a 3.4.x kernel
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NedDasty:
Had major rebooting issues on the 12/4 build. Switched back to 12/3 which has been rock solid.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] phoenixaldana01:
same here might stay on 12/3 for this week running great
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Could you actually get a log of it and say if it was hot booting or actually rebooting all the way =P
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Rebooting issues were due to a cherry-pick, others were seeing the same thing. Ill leave it out of the next build if it doesnt get cleaned up by the time I build again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gpcatch06:
battery life

Is everyone getting better battery life on default kernel or diff kernel. My battery is getting shredded on kt kernel on mobile network. BBS says bam_dmux_wakelock when off WiFi. I'm afraid to change anything cuz the 12/3 build is so damn rock solid aside from battery drain.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mattish13:
Any way for us to track change logs for these cm11.0 builds? Really stable and great battery with kt kernel. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] senorbuck:
Masta, is there any way to get the Instagram cherrypick back in the 4.4 builds (to allow video recording/editing)? From what I understand, you guys have to get the camera working 100% first (I think it is now?), so just wondering.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikejr83:
OMG!!! 4.4.1 source was posted! When is this going to be integrated masta???

Lol :p
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Here is a kernel that has the 'instagram fix' built in. Let me know if it works. I haven't even installed instagram on CM11 yet.

http://bit.ly/1gJUbhz
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] senorbuck:
Awwwe snap! Thanks. I'll give this a shot and report back.

---------- Post added at 10:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:30 AM ----------

No go with that kernel. Recording a video leads to the distorted picture stuff. Did all of the gallery/media store wiping and what not from the 10.1 builds. Eventually either Instagram crashes or the phone reboots.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Did it get further along than previously before it went wonky?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] senorbuck:
I'd say so, yes. I can only compare it to how it would act back w/ the 10.x ROM's. With the "instagram kernel" you provided, Instagram seems to stay more stable through the process of recording a video. It just gets distorted after a press or two of the record button. I was able to play it w/ effects (both the normal video it captured and distorted) before it crapped out too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenbrownstone:
I'm up if need testing

Here's a build that should mostly work:

ROM: http://goo.im/devs/aeroevan/cm10.2/cm-10.2-20130731-UNOFFICIAL-d2vzw.zip

GApps: http://download.clockworkmod.com/gapps/gapps-jb-20130726.zip (unless you find a better 4.3 gapps)

Camera can only take one picture and then you need to reboot, but other than that it should be okay.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] khymbote:
I could probably live with out a camera for a few days. maybe.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zetsumeikuro:
Thank you sir! I just had a nerdgasm.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mapatton82:
Just flashed this and any app that requires root access is telling me that my phone is not rooted, is there something I missed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goldsmitht:
Will RomDB let us know an update is available, or will we have to download the first version we flash, and then subscribe to that build number to get future updates?

:confused: I think i even confused myself on that one...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenbrownstone:
Its says I need root too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] khymbote:
I thought I read something about 4.3 and root issues. Not sure if it was rootzwiki or cyanogen on Google +
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] blempka:
They had a similar issue on the old Nexus 7 early builds of 4.3. Perhaps look there to fix root issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
Camera issues are fixed so builds later today (unofficial of course) should be good to go on that front.

Also you guys having root problems, do this:

enable developer options (tap build number 7 times)

go in and check "Enable USB Debugging" and set Root access to "Apps+ADB"

Enjoy working root.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] khymbote:
Already was set to that so no root issues hopped up for me. The camera did freeze glad they have that worked out already.

---------- Post added at 11:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 AM ----------

Tried focal also and it just crashed. I know you said there was a fix and will be in later today.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
I think the camera fixes will take care of focal as well but don't quote me on that, not 100% sure
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stearic:
Stupid question, but will this have Bluetooth LE working?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] squito:
have any of the testers seen if the video recording audio is still too quiet?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sbenson1226:
Nice, super excited for this. Getting pretty tired of TW, need me some CM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jakereeves31:
Hmm. I'm not quite sure. I really don't record videos much so when I tried it right now I have nothing to compare it with. I can say it wasn't loud though
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlokos:
No problem with the root issue. However, I set up my exchange email account and shortly thereafter I got pop ups that email has stopped. I tried clearing data and rebooting, I also uninstalled and re-installed the account. I booted into recovery cleared cache and dalvik, but it didn't help. I tried fixing permissions and still no go. I had to restore a previous rom. Has anyone had this issue with 10.2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] larry0987:
Bluetooth is not working for me. clean flash 8/3 build when i try to search for devices bt turns off. Have to reboot to get I on again, updated to 8/4 same issue. Everything else works great that I can tell. Battery is about the same as 10.1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] khymbote:
A couple of times on the 8/2 build my phone becomes un responsive. I have to pull the battery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
This is being worked on now, there's already a commit to fix it so the fix will be in mastamoon's build tomorrow, turning BT on on 8/3 or 8/4 also breaks a lot of other stuff, it's pretty much one of those break all the things scenarios.

Edit: BT fix is merged.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
I have a build with it , would you like me to upload it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
I compiled one with the BT fix a few hours ago, but if you want to upload yours go for it as long as you didn't pick patch set 2 or 3 since those had the bluesleep wakelock issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
I did mine not long ago, I get 30min builds so I am doing one with the merged one right now so I say a 30min eta with upload

Bluetooth is fixed for me
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Prack:
Invisiblek's 805 build is up. I have had a really busy weekend so I wasn't able to hop on and tell you guys how these builds have been going for me but here goes:

Everything works fine minus root. I tried flashing the supersu 1.51 zip and it works for 30 seconds or so then the app stops responding. I open supersu and it's just a white page and does nothing. I've tried installing supersu several different ways but I can't get it working. It looks to me as if you won't be able to dirty flash these roms. Clean flash probably required each time.

I'm going to clean flash invisiblek 805 build with the gapps-jb-20130729. I will let you guys know how it goes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Eyalkn:
Try using CWM recovery if you are using TWRP. I have been using TWRP for a long time without any issue till JB 3.4 and now I am using only CWM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Prack:
Thanks for the tip but I've always used CWM. 6.0.3.1 touch. I've been stuck using the invisiblek 802 build because I just cannot dirty flash over it without root breaking. I'm going to try to dirty flash 805 and if it doesn't work I'm going to clean install 805 and hope that it fixes the superuser issue for me going forward. Would really like to be able to just dirty flash for a while.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PerCompLLC:
Try using the SuperSU zip flash which will give you back root as it drops in the necessary files in recovery. I used it with my Nexus 7 when I lost root upgrading to CM10.2 and it worked like a charm. YMMV

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] locodroid:
thanks to all of you, this rom is working great. (8/2 built)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Prack:
Thank you for the tip but if you see my previous post I said that I have tried the supersu 1.5.1 zip file and It did not work however....

I am very pleased to say that invisiblek 805 build has fixed all my root issues. So far this is the best/most stable build I've used yet :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PerCompLLC:
Sorry to hear that SuperSU didn't work for you. That said, thanks for the thumbs up on the invisiblek build!! (I'm still on Mastamoon's 8/2)

Anyone know reverting back to 4.1.2 nightly's leaves my phone in an infinite booting state shownig the CM loading animation?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prenedo:
Revert back to 4.1 or 4.2? Either way, did you clean flash it? That would be my first guess... If it was clean flashed, you could have a bad download (verify md5).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] HandsomeOne:
Is anyone still having data handoff issues,mostly in 1x areas,which is big for me ??? Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlokos:
Try Masta's 4.4 build; I haven't heard anybody complain about handoffs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] HandsomeOne:
Ok thanks for responding.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Ok, maybe Ill have turn the tweak up to 11! :P
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xyrcncp:
Are your builds still experimental? I don't see a new thread for them, so I'm assuming so.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Try this one...

http://bit.ly/1cqW8i0

Turned the tweak up a bit more. Problem is if we go to high, other things start to suffer..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Not really experimental at this point anymore.. More just dont wanna make a thread with there being a handful of other CM11 unofficial roms here.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rmg88888888:
Has anyone used Google Wallet tap and pay successfully on 11?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] HandsomeOne:
Sorry forgot to say using Masta's 4.4 build 12-05-13 but happens with all 4.4 rom so its is probably qcril not quite right yet same happen on 4.3 builds then they got it. I didn't think they would get this far, Great Work Thanks for response
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] khymbote:
I know when I go between WiFi and LTE I have to cycle data to make it work sometimes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
I've had no handoff issues what so ever. Sometimes it seems to stay on a certain data type a bit longer than I think it should but never needs me to intervene.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] HandsomeOne:
Yeah i have to do that sometimes but don't get any 1x, I get 3g, wifi, LTE have play with it. . thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mattish13:
Pleeeeeease :) sspencer recently stopped posting builds to his thread and we could all use a new one I think...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hans5849:
I could second this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Div033:
Has anyone found a workaround to this issue? I've had it on all unofficial and official builds, even stable 10.2. I know we're all talking about 4.4 now but if anyone has any experience with this I'd be greatly appreciative if someone could shed some light on this issue. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] senorbuck:
Soooo close! Now Instagram crashes after the effects portion is applied and you next give a description and post. Had to do all that wipe gallery/media storage stuff too like before.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xyrcncp:
Oh, ok. I was just wondering because I'd like to try your CM11 builds, but it's a bit confusing reading them here. Like where to start reading in the thread, what to use, bugs, etc..

But it's your choice :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
I'll do another one Monday, don't have my Dev box here at home.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] senorbuck:
All good. Greatly appreciate you tweaking everything :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Everything you need is at mastamoon.truelinux.net just grab the ROM and the kk gapps package.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikejr83:
Wondering the same thing. I haven't had Tue chance to try it myself. Going to try to run out to the store tomorrow and see if it's good to go. Kind of worried, though. In the themes and apps section under one of the wallet threads there's reports that it doesn't work on cm11.

Masta, if when I try it doesn't work is there anything outside of a logcat that you'd need? If it doesn't error I'm not sure what a logcat would provide.

I'll report back tomorrow.

What kernels are working best with 4.4?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bmeek:
I've been happy enough with the native kernels, but I had a great experience with decimalman's aosp 4.4 test kernel - ran it with masta's 12/04 build for two days with no issues and great battery life. The freelunch CPU governor is excellent.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] HandsomeOne:
Cm10.2 has a stable version 12-7-13 .
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Cm11 official has been released. Instagram should work also. The issue with it is it trying to record 1080p which is wonky with our phones. That's been worked around for the time being so you can give that a try for now. I might have a build out with the fix this weekend but more likely Monday.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] senorbuck:
Awesome. Let me give that a shot. Thanks again for the update! :thumbup:

---------- Post added at 01:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:05 PM ----------

So, Instagram on the official CM11 has none of the wonky video stuff. The only problem I'm having with it now is it crashes every time you go to process a video. Same for picking a video you've already recorded. Stupid Instagram!
