Thanks for the nice work. In 11-20 build my camera also works (including ffc).

I did a clean install of cm-11-20131120-UNOFFICIAL-d2vzw.zip and then pa_gapps-full-4.4-KANGED20131117.zip but when my phone rebooted it showed the Phone error (Unfortunately, Phone has stopped), and it did not allow me continue with configrations.

I tried the following:

1. Redownloaded

2. Formatted system, chache, data, dalvik cache and reinstalled again firstly rom and then gapps (17-11) - result still the same error

3. Installed an earlier version of CM-11 (precisely speaking 19-11) and then gapps (17-11) - result still the same error

4. Then I thought it must be a problem of kanged gapss (17-11) so I clean installed 20-11 rom and then 14-11 gapps and everything worked fine.

Thanks again for your excellent work :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RayMcGrath:
Are you using ART? If so it does break root access. Flash this SU update, then let it update the binaries, go into settings, turn it off then back on. You should then have root access.

It worked for me. Good luck:good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RayMcGrath:
now try flashing the kanged gapps over pa gapps. that worked for me. ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jadesdan:
11-20 looks great, but I think we lost the pulldown toggles we had in 19.

Is the 4.4 camera taking clear, crisp pictures as well? It has always operated for me, just did not take focused pictures. Thank you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mattydangerfox:
Mine is taking clear pictures, and both front facing and rear facing work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Clyde Tacoma:
So my camera finally works! But all the pictures come out mirrored... Maybe I need to do a clean flash but has anyone else seen this?

Where can I find the latest version of ClockworkMod Recovery ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Obaterista93:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Clyde Tacoma:
Disregard. I restarted and tried it again and it's working correct now, front and back cameras. :eek:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] markdapimp:
I'm confused on dirty flashing you flash rom and gapps again?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BrUhNiGGs:
That happens regardless. I'd say the only thing that won't mirror is using the instagram FFC but it reboots the phone every time you take a pic

Flash the newest nightly, wipe cache and dalvik cache
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DvdOwens:
any alternative ? I just want to be able to flash the latest zip or some similar method .
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mightybryan:
Rom Installer on the market is the easiest easy to install any recovery for free.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jhanford:
The difference between dirty flashing and clean flashing is as follows:

Dirty Flashing

You wipe cache and dalvik cache (I also format /system)

You flash rom

You flash gapps

Clean Flashing

You backup your app data using something like Titanium Backup (aka TiBu)

You wipe cache and dalvik cache (I also format /system)

You factory reset which wipes /data (except /data/media)

You flash rom

You flash gapps

Reboot and setup phone

Install your backup app

You restore your backups

The reason to clean flash is to wipe out data associated with the operating system itself. This is why you cannot call restoring from a full nandroid backup, a "clean flash" as you will also be restoring o/s related data

Soft Key Lights?

Has anyone noticed that the softkey lights quit functioning?

I am on the 11/18 build. Running ART.

I just flashed the SU UPDATE .zip to fix root. when it rebooted, I noticed that the lights werent working. Not sure if they were working before flashing the SU update.

Anyone else seen this?

Thanks!

Update. I hit the home button, and the light came back on and seem to be working correctly now. Weird.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goatman101:

Use better battery stats app. You'll need to run through a battery cycle after you install it to populate info. Heres the app

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dawest:
Yup. Insanely high battery drain. Also, we can't check for wakelocks, none of the battery stats apps work with 4.4 yet.

Settings for screen

Cammy, what do your screen settings look like that's first time I've seen screen battery stats that low mine are always between 35% and 45% and feel that's the only thing really draining my battery.

Just dirty flashed 11-20 we'll see what i get. thanks jhanford.

edit - spoke to soon just rebooted back into phone after flashing and screen battery stats are @ 20%. :)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ryezen:
Anyone come from Dirty Unicorns? Just wondering how this ROM compares before I consider taking the plunge. I'm usually more about stability, but the screenshot has me ready to flash...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jloaiza:
Good point Steve, I remember when i started using Andy's BoneStock ROM after a solid two weeks of daily driver my extended battery went from 1 and 1/2 days to 3 days. That's when i started believing in letting battery settle in and get acquainted (sort of speak) with the ROM plus when you take into consideration all the stuff were doing to it while trying to get it to a point where we"re happy that will take some drainage.

Thank you all, my CM days were over since GS3 and Touch Wiz came out plus Scott's ROM and then AndyBones ROM. Only reason I came back over was because i was bored and relapsed back to flashing :eek: I do have to admit though this has been quite a pretty nice build.

Although i'm not playing with ART yet I'm having no issues with built in SU I actually uninstalled SU app and used TIBU app to remove a couple of apps that are not needed. Rebooted back into recovery did one last wipe davlik cache and all good currently.

Also just confirmed FFC and BFC both work great.

---------- Post added at 02:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:15 PM ----------

Correct me if i'm wrong guys but Dirty Unicorns is 4.3.1. I played with before 4.4 was released and quickly went back BoneStock backup. This is KitKat 4.4 and is very nice and clean cut.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dwaipayanray95:
did u manage to get root working on ART..

I have xperia sola with cm 11 n m facing no root issues on art...please help
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] CCivale:
Ok, so I've been following this thread for days, debating over taking the plunge and trying this Rom out. So, I spent the afternoon fighting with my phone to get CWM recovery to replace TWRP and finally accomplished that.

Now my question is, if I flash the most recent nightly, what is the recommended gapps package that everyone is currently using?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WillisD:
For some reason the email app wouldn't sync to my exchange account for work, clean install, cleared app data and cache any ideas?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
I'm on the other 4.4, but I came from DU and like it so far. The mediaserver in 4.4 uses far less juice, so if you stream music all day like I do, you'll have better battery life. There's some aesthetic issues to work out, but I imagine CM will push them out as the bug are worked out.

Basically, there's no deal-breaker of a reason NOT to go with this rom over DU.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jloaiza:
I've allways used EZRecovery app to switch back and forth between recoveries search in google apps

I've been using this CWM with no issues at all

CWM = http://download2.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.3-d2vzw.img

TWRP = http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/d2vzw/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-d2vzw.img

Download CWM and TWRP and put it in your external SDcard

Install EZRecovery from GAPPS

Open EZRecovery use custom image option and point to where you put the image select the flash button (i do it 2x just to be sure it flashed) then select boot into recovery and done.

Don't forget to make nandroid backups first before you start anything else once you get into recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
^ This. It can't get any easier. EZRecovery is a breeze... just save the img files in a folder where you'll remember where they are and you're set.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jloaiza:
make sure it's in a folder on your external SDCARD. If you happen to do a full clean flash you'll end up deleting them for future use on your internal SDCARD. Like i did at first. :silly:

One more thing when you do a Clean full wipe flash ROM - you'll not see nor have EZRecovery installed when you reboot all you have to do is re install EXRecovery your img files should be in your external SDCARD and done.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
This might not work for everyone, but I was able to flash this rom 'dirty' over AOKP's latest nightly. All I did was wipe the dalvik and cache before I flashed the rom and gapps. I hate wiping data/apps if I don't have to, so I was pleased to see the flash took.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jloaiza:
Not sure if anyone is working on mods. But if anyone is I do very much miss the following

- holding down the Home button when locked and lighting up Torch

- from home screen holding down Home button and selecting close all open apps

- moving status bar clock to the left corner

- making the alarm icon not show on Status bar (it's annoying and personally the less up there the better- i believe Dirty Unicorn has this option)

- call recording

obvious ones would be

- toggles when drop down status bar

- some Lock Screen options

- some battery options

I'm sorry I can't be of more help as I'm no where near a dev but I can play and test very well.

Also by no means am I demanding these I'm just putting it out there and once again thanks to all for oyuor help and hard work to bring us all better and faster greatness.:)

If there is any other way I can help I promise to do my best.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Relentless D:
Patience. Stability comes first. CM features are slowly trickling into the 4.4 code/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jloaiza:
Will do, if there's one thing I've learned through flashing and mistakes is patience. I just want to make sure I'm not missing out on anything. And I'm sorry, like I said on another post I've relapsed from flashing and you know how that goes. :eek:

Clean flashed using 11/20 version and 11/19 version of gapps. Worked great out of the gate.
