BTW I am running the same setup as you and it seems very smooth.

i use apex launcher and can make a shortcut to apn's. hold anywhere on your screen, tap shortcuts, activities, scroll down to settings and tap, scroll till you see apn's and tap. now there is a shortcut to apn's on home screen, i think its the same way for nova launcher too. good luck and be careful not to mess any up.

You can get RCB to run right? Every time I install it in either a TW rom or in Slim Bean, I end up with a rebooting phone (5-6 times), then bootlooping.

I was about to post these exact steps. I'm on Ting and need to manually edit the apn to get mms working. Those are the steps I use for aosp roms. Just so you know, when I flash slim updates, the apns stick as well.

Using Google Play Music, I can't get it to download songs for offline use. It's probably not a ROM issue, but I thought I'd mention it in case I'm wrong and others are having the issue. I've got space, I've got a network connection, it just keeps saying cannot download music right now, will try again later. If it's just me, sorry for wasting thread space.

I've had issues with reaching my spotify playlist at times. Seems I was in a LTE area yet my phone scans for service and can't find the music!

I don't know the answer to your issue but try reinstalling Google music. Or just try rebooting your phone!!

Battery life while sleeping is the best I've ever seen personally. Does anyone have any tips on how to lengthen battery life while using phone/screen on? I'm on asswax/noop
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Schnadam:
Yeah... Been running for three days with no problems. No force closes... I just downloaded it off a webpage and used lucky patch to remove licensing.

I haven't had any problems ... On stable build 1 use Google play allllll the time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Schnadam:
I'm getting mediocre bat life.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] montecarlo5:
i think i'm getting good battery life. granted i don't use my phone much but wifi,bluetooth and auto sync are always on and also when not on wifi i only get 3g as im not by any lte towers. im not using greenify or any app the like. all stock rom with my theme.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ascertion:
Weekly 1.2 is having 3g issues for me. I'm usually on LTE but today I was in a 3g zone. Took forever to grab an available 3g signal.

I'm hearing cm is having data issues, too.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] projektidiot:
I'm having this same issue!

EDIT: I think it might just be an issue with the latest update. I rolled back to an earlier version without the prettier download queue and it's working fine for me now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prochargedls2:
OK I actually have a problem that's not in the FAQ, I'd post on their website but schools WiFi blocks it.

My problem is that I DO have root access, but I don't at the same time. Yes j have already changed root to apps and abd. Voltage control always force closes after the yellow screen it shows, in CWM it always prompts me to fix root permissions and when I do nothing changes. I don't think it does anything because I'll fix it and it just reboots right after I try.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] rambleon84:
Have you tried greenify or dsbattery saver?

You can also go into Advance options>Performance>Processor and change the CPU governor..same for lowering the min and max cpu

Now I'm not getting crazy life like montecarlo5 posted but i can last a full day with 2+ hours of on screen time

I'm 100% 3g and have not had any data issues with any of the slim 4.3's...currently on 1.2.

I will be traveling through 4g zones this weekend, ill see how it handles switching from one to the other
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wallythander:
I get great battery life with this ROM on a stock battery. Over the course of a day I can get 5 hours screen on time in about 13 hours from when I unplug my phone. I also don't usually make phone calls, I try to use texts instead. Voice calls eat battery alive. I use DKP kernel, freelunch governor and SIO as my scheduler. I undervolt -75, no underclocking or overclocking. I have 45 apps installed in total. I have greenify-ed pesky apps that wake up my phone that I don't frequently use. I try to keep the number of apps installed on my phone to a minimum. I also don't install Hangouts, Maps or other Google Apps that quite frankly eat battery life. I use Mapquest instead of Maps and Xabber instead of Hangouts. They use less battery. I also admittedly don't play games, I use Feedr, Reddit is Fun and Dolphin Browser mostly. A while back I installed BetterBatteryStats and I used it to help me root out apps that kept my phone awake when they shouldn't have. I also played around with settings, AOSP roms and various different kernels to find out what works best for my phone. I have almost no TouchWiz experience though, I used it for about 10 minutes before rooting and installing an AOSP rom. This is probably my favorite AOSP rom, I like how minimalist it is, and I very much like the toggleable GAPPS/RealdarkSlim. It is also, in my experience, extremely stable.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] WhiteiceDMSTech:
Great rom. Been running it since the stable released.

Only problem I have so far is every now and then when I boot the phone, I get "Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped." I just click ok and all seem's fine. But it's annoying.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bog3nator:
Mine sometimes does it also. But only on reboot. Try fixing permissions
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] smartguy10:
I am getting OK battery life with this build , what kernel you guys are using for better battery life .
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nimaim:
Stock kernel works great with this but I'm personally using the asswax governor (min cpu of 192 mhz) and row scheduler combo. This gives me terrific battery life. I checked battery stats using Trickster MOD and my phone is properly in deep sleep for about 50% of the time, which is accurate as my phone is idle most of the time. I also greenify just about every user app that I have since I don't care about push/live updates and just open the app when I need something (i.e. to check an email or get a sports/news update). I also keep most things that I don't use off (NFC, LTE as there's no LTE here, bluetooth, etc.). I easily get more than a day now on the stock battery.

I used to use LeanKernel on 4.2 and was a big advocate for it and I still love it, but the stock kernel works very well on 4.3.

Attached screenshot is proof. This is with 2 hr+ of screen on time, can easily go another half day or so.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] smartguy10:
I will try your recommended settings for the kernel you posted and see.

Been using slim for long times ,pretty stable ROMs but battery life is OK on them .

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dragon_rckr:
Is the crackle sound during Google Play playback still present in the new build?

I'm having it a lot on Stable 1.4 and gets annoying and hard to listen to music while at work...

Anyone else having trouble with Handset SMS pop up not relocating when the keyboard comes up? The keyboard overlays the text box and you have to either assume what you've typed is correct or close the popup and answer within the app, defeating the purpose of the popup.

I'm using nova launcher btw and will switch to stock and see if that error still comes up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shinesthru:
Are you listening on headphones, bluetooth, or speakers? Custom kernel?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dragon_rckr:
Missed to add that info :/

Clean Install coming from TW. Happens in both BT (car audio) and plugged in headphones, kernel supplied with the ROM. Sometimes happens when there's a new sound notification and it'll start with the crackle and skip sound.

speaking of notifications... if the sound notification volume is set to another level that is not vib it'll play the notification as well as the media sound being played back through the speaker, not cool while at work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shinesthru:
I would suggest bumping up your voltages, or trying a custom kernel, or both.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dragon_rckr:
I'll give another kernel a shot and report back.

Thanks!

You might try reading the last few pages.

Edit: Wasn't trying to be a jerk, but the fix has been outlined so many times within the past week or so... Look at the posts mentioning APN.

Edit edit: Wow I'm dumb. Thought I clicked on the CM10.2 thread. My bad! Yeah so go over to that thread, you basically need to backup and restore your APN... At least that's my understanding.

Ha good to hear because the APN issues on CM were getting very frustrating to deal with.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] rambleon84:
Just want to chime and mention that everything is working normal for me, I'm on the latest update. I can toggle off data and that works as advertised. SMS is sending/recieving texts normal, same for pictures.

I clean installed when I switched over to the first stable and then just wiping cache/davlik for the last couple of weekly updates

Well just found an issue that i can repeat on demand. If i am listening to Play Music and i go into my Gallery, i get a Music playback error. Music stops and i get a notification immediately.

Can someone else repeat this? Music more or less just pauses, I exit gallery, go back to play music and hit play, it picks up where i left off.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] montecarlo5:
I tried all i could to get this to happen but could not repeat your effect. Music keeps playing just fine over phone speaker and bluetooth speaker. Maybe try uninstalling play music reboot phone then re-install play and see if that fixes it for you.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ihugyou:
With the first few betas music played from phone speaker was way louder. Now I do understand this could be detrimental to the phones speaker if misused. But is there any available phone volume hack I can flash?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] glcK23:
Agreed, this rom would be perfect if it had some sort of volume hack like in 4.1.2 touchwiz roms:p
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dragon_rckr:
You can give ViPER4Android a shot... haven't installed it yet cause it requires some manual effort and not that savy atm.

A close friend uses it and says it works as advertised and gives him great audio quality as well as a good volume boost. He's an audiophile btw :silly:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ihugyou:
Well right now I use volume+ which when on the right settings gives me great sound. But it would be nice to have something integrated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Root this !!:
I just flashed this and got everything set up. Fantastic rom!! I was curious though, is there a way to get notification ring on the lock screen? Don't think that is the technical term for it but it's where it will show the notification when it comes in and if I press the ring it will appear (like the email or text). I know some other 4.3 roms have it. Just curious if this has it or will get it.

So torn. The stable build or the weekly. How can a man decide. Better get them both just in case. Keep up the good work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Bacardi222:
Hey guys, first off, really love the ROM. I'm having an issue that I hope someone may be able to help me out with. If I'm posting in the wrong section then please feel free to direct me to the proper one. Having flashed this ROM I haven't noticed any problems except for one. I'm not entirely sure if it's actually related to the rom, the kernel I'm running (BMS) or something else. Basically, the headphone jack only outputs audio to the right channel. I initially thought this was a hardware problem so I actually ordered a replacement speaker/headphone jack and replaced the original. It was easy to install and I had it working. I tested out some headphones and both channels were working properly so I left it at that. Literally later that day, the same problem was happening except now it was the LEFT channel of audio that wasn't working. I know this isn't an issue with the headphones as I have about 6 pairs and they all exhibit the same behavior. I also tried with the aux jack in my car and the same thing happens. It's always the same channel that's not working. I HIGHLY doubt it is a hardware problem at this point as I was being extra careful with inserting/removing things from the jack and the second replacement jack/speaker stopped working the same day I got it.

Has anyone had similar issues? What should I do to try and troubleshoot this more, flash a different kernel (stock maybe)? Re-flash the rom (would prefer not to, did a full wipe with all the proper steps before flashing)? I do not think it is the headphone jack because I can see inside of it and it appears as though all the contacts are in proper place, but I'm not sure. Any advice/tips would be greatly appreciated.

If for some reason I can't get the headphone jack working, it may just give me an excuse to buy an external portable DAC/amp I've been wanting for a long time.

EDIT: Running the stock stable build 1 with bms kernel just for clarification.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Spider_Pig27:
Never experienced this issue. Try swapping kernels. Try lean kernel or dkp or ktoonz or stock cm which is what comes with the ROM itself
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Bacardi222:
Do you think you could point me in the direction of the stock kernel included or any other 4.3 compatible one? I looked at the dkp thread but apparently people are having some issues with that one, as for the others, I'm not sure if they're 4.3 compatible. Thanks for the help!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shinesthru:
Ktoonsez kernel is in the original development thread, not sure why lean kernel doesn't have a support thread here on xda... hmm...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Root this !!:
If you want the stock kernel, you should be able to just reflash the rom.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Bacardi222:
Thanks for the replies guys. I got both audio channels (left & right) working properly. I opened the phone again and double-checked that everything was attached properly, it was. After rebooting I was disappointed to see that still only one audio channel was working so I flashed the ksootz (spelling) kernel and wiped cache/dalvik/fixed permissions. Still nothing. So finally, and I don't know why this was my last step I went into manage apps and checked out play music (my music player of course) and cleared all cache/data/uninstalled updates and then voila, everything working fine.

So if for some reason this happens to another person, just double check your music player and clear data/rollback if necessary.

Going to re-flash bms kernel and report back.

Forgive me in advance for my question as its directed towards the dev and I mean no offense. I'm just a curious person. Does this Rom use cm as a base or is it straight Google source and Samsung device source with a cm apk or two in it.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] randomfied:
Accidental post. Sorry.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kmartburrito:
coming from Illusion rom, the battery life on this rom (even with the lean kernel) is pretty bad. I need to let it work for a couple of days, but monitoring with gsam battery monitor, the best estimates I've seen in its "estimated time left based on last 15 mins" was about 27 hours. compared with somewhere between 100 to 200 hours on illusion, something is eating some battery. Remember that's with the screen off and me trying not to mess with it whatsoever. True usage time is much different, depending on how you're testing it. I do find that when the screen is on the battery is draining quickly.

Just to clarify, Illusion rom is 4.3 also.

That being said, I will let it ride for a couple of days and report back.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] smartguy10:
I am having same issues with not good battery life , will see if switching kernels help or not .
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nimaim:
Not trying to come off as a jerk, but you guys can't just post that you are having bad battery life without specific stats and screenshots to show what's running, logcats/betterbatterystats log to see if you have any wakelocks, list of apps you have running/syncing in the background, etc. OP won't be able to help you unless you provide these. I've proven (along with many others) that I have great battery life with the screenshots I've posted, as well as what I do to achieve that. This ROM gives me the best battery life and performance out of any I've tested, and I've tested them all extensively. Stock kernel using asswax / row puts my phone in deep sleep and hotplugged when it's supposed to (around 50% of the time), and runs at underclocked speeds when it's supposed to, it works perfectly.

Changing kernels will probably yield minimal improvements, if any. I reckon there is a bigger problem with you guys' setups. I would do a full wipe and reflash 4.3 and let the battery settle for a bit.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] smartguy10:
