Hello, I'm not a dev here, but I think :

- that a bugtracker is a really good idea

- that the bugtracker MUST have a way to be browsed read-only with no password (or readonly/readonly advertized on login page ?) : it's use is also for users like me to check if a bug (critical to them) is fixed or not, or just to gather informations on actual known bugs before flashing. It would also encourage people to register to submit a not-yet-submitted-bug as they cas actually see it's not there.

- that the link to this BT should be in first post, if devs use it :)

Nope, there is no monthly release that is more stable. The monthly releases are just picked at a point in time when the maintainer decides that the builds are stable enough to call a M release.

Some CM devices have an M release (the more used/common devices), but honestly I do not see the point. If you find a nightly that is stable for you, stay on it unless you need to upgrade or see an issue fixed in a later release.

Thanks [MENTION=4916277]h8Aramex[/MENTION]. Yeah real life has meant no time to dedicate to Android lately. But I'm very happy for you to help drive the Mantis bug tracker for the CM nightly ROM.

It will be easier for everyone and for me to have all logs for a single fault recorded and saved against the same issue number.

I'll update OP and ask that they PM you or me to set up their accounts (I assume this is to reduce spam?)

Thanks!

Used ONDEMAND today and I have not noticed any more loss compared to pegasusq.

But we will see how it works on the long run. I don't mind sacrificing a few % battery life for music. (Especially with cool effects and bass.)

@_everyone who messaged me:

Sent out your accounts (well, Mantis did), check your mailbox or junk folder.

If you did not receive anything, hit me up, I will answer ASAP.

@_mcampbellsmith (don't want to bog you down further with such mentions)

Thanks! Thought it would be a bit of help for you.

As I mentioned earlier, feel free to message me if you want new projects (or you can just add them yourself), or you need a plugin, or some entirely different web software that you need to get hosted. And again, thanks for your work, the new fix is awesome. 10/10

That's a shame - It's still not all adding up to the full 11Gb (about 5Gb is missing) so you have some space hidden somehow,

did you ever use a rom/mod that would have partitioned your storage in an odd way?

Try to find where... use a root explorer or something.

In a shell you can run df and check that the partitions are correct, is /data 11Gb?, and how much does it say is free (6Gb or the reported 1Gb from your ScreenShot)?

Below is my partition table if you want to compare;

ART = Android Run time, an experimental feature that will probably replace Dalvik in a future Android release.

Essentially it pre-compiles applications instead of on-the-fly compiling.

Try this article for a summary.

Register on the bugtracker, or provide logs here.

(I forgot to do so when I reported it on the tracker. A few minutes ago I could only take pictures of full black screens again. No force close, but there was nothing in the cam's picture. I will try to log these.)

Kinda sucks you cannot save/compress logs on longer periods, like it would compress the log, and again, and again.

Maybe I should write a catlog tool? (so it would store a couple MBs for each file, warn you if it gets big, and compress it down.)

Also, I tried to use the new Google Camera (they just released it), and the panorama is totally off for example.

Not sure if it's a CM bug or the app is fudged.

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Hbohd:
You probably have Xposed installed? It is well known 'issue' then, because it is incompatible with ART (therefore it switches automatically to Dalvik).

WiFi issue.

i have done so many updates of CM11 so I thought it was time to begin from scratch. I flashed bot 04-14 and 04-16 with wipes between and both times I get stuck on WiFi. I can enter my password but my device will not connect to my WiFi. I restored my backup.

I noticed you and h8Aramex both reported this issue, but Camera works fine for me, and has done for maybe 2 weeks now, since 20140324 (before that it would stop responding often and need to be killed) , I just tested on 0416 and no issues at all.

I've noticed, during the day, a lot of battery drain... (i'm using boeffla underclocked cpu 1.0GHz e gpu, battery profile) maybe because of screen and 3g connection.

During the day, in bright sunlight, the screen is barely visible ... so I can't reduce the brightness.

Any suggestion? Any trick like Samsung ROM for the screen?

3G battery usage it's ok for you?

Thank you :highfive:
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Hbohd:
Full brightness and 3g all the time may reduce your battery time toughly.. Like 5 hours SOT for normal usage and 3 hours SOT using 3G and full brightness :(
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] h8Aramex:
Why would you even use a custom kernel?

Maybe if you are on Linux and you need a grsec kernel, or a backport, sure. But there is just no point in doing so on Android.

Anyway. Just set dynamic brightness, set it manual too (like by yourself and that's it.) The phone cannot run a day with full brightness and screen. No difference betwen stock and CM in this regard. (Get an extended battery.)

Again, power profiles make no sense, like underclocking.

This waythe phone will run on that lower freq for longer, so its the same, really. Ondemand won't crank, it to max, unless there is a need for it.

(Get the battery with that mesh back, not ZeroLemon. When I was looking for one, people said they had sone signal loss with ZL. But of course, you can do your own research.)
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] psychok9:
The battery drop seems stronger :/

Because I can reduce battery drain and change power mAh charge from USB3 port to 1000mAh like from the wall (Boeffla Kernel 2.2).

maybe you're right ... but I can't decrease the brightness because it is already at the limit (problem of the OLED)

I will try it!

Thank you for your suggestion.

I have attached the image with the battery drop.

MOD EDIT SOME CONTENT REMOVED

The reason I find most forks pointless is because I patched, compiled, worked with kernels so many times.

(Well, it was a byproduct of my heavy use of Linux on both servers and desktop.)

Anyway. You know grsec I suspect. It's one of the sets that actually make sense. It does really enhance the kernel (security-wise). Yes, it's for Linux, not Android.

Boeffla stated personally that he does not own an i9305, it's a cross-compiled thing.

To me, most custom kernels are like the -ck patchset, which is said to "enhance desktop Linux". If only people would change to Deadline I/O scheduler before stating that the -ck patch does wonders.

- Sleeping:

Every CPU comes with it's own instruction set, features (nowadays) and such. But we are in the i9305 thread, talking about the CPU of this exact phone.

- Overheating:

Boy, if your phone overheats, you should send it in for repairs. I sure as hell stressed the hell out of mine, and had no overheat problems, ever.

(Well, my iPhone had no issues either, and honestly, no phone should ever overheat.)

- OC + OV:

1.4ghz *4. And overclocking. For a smartphone OS.

Wha... Why.... I don't even...

- touch to wake:

First, there is G2 for this. But I recall that I was able to install some stuff to accomplish the very same task.

And it was not a new kernel or anything like that.

Awww hell, why did I even waste time replying. It happens. ;_;
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] daedric:
MOD EDIT SOME CONTENT REMOVED

How about a dark magic patch that fixes a wake lock issue ? Would such a patch be enough to prove you wrong ?

Now, back on topic: Why so many wake locks ? :D
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] daedric:
How do you define placebo on a kernel level ? Do you mean the common "my battery lasts longer" or the frequent "my device is snappier" ?

Because, most things can usually be scientifically measured

Same ? You just called something that fixes a wake lock a "simple fix". Different linux kernels have existed since it's dawn. I have had this discussing between the regular kernels and the CK kernels.

Confirm, but i wasn't measuring anyone by their postcount.

For all its worth, please do. While you are at it, please fix these kernel locks that are driving me crazy :D

why the hell am i suffering from mdm_hsic_pm0 kernel wake locks ? 1h of wakelock of 8h uptime.

Also, why the hell PowerManagerService.WakeLocks ? The device wasn't even charging.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] h8Aramex:
You misunderstood me from the start. I respect real developers, and real kernel devs. And all kind of devs who do real work.

I called the placebo kernels silly, because they have no real use. Besides the gimmicky features. (if they feature any)

But you are talking about kernel FIXES and PATCHES, which should be part of the original CM.

Why would I ever say anything against fixes and real work? Again, these fixes should never stay outside of the main kernel tree.

Not for Android, not for Linux, or CM.

The two you mentioned by the way is the best two placebo stuff you hear, indeed.

Even if the "dev" does not even touch the kernel's scheduler or something, it will be faster suddenly.

(Again, I never had the intention to badmouth anyone, but a kernel is a really complex software.)

I'm not a commiter of the CM project, and since we are in nightly, the kernel would change five times before you finish your patchset.

Which would then get reviewed, chewed upon, thrown back, you work on it again.. rinse and repeat.

This is the usual process for every patch on Github too, which is OK. But we are in nighlty again.

If we will have wakelock issues after the final release, then it's worth to spend days or weeks on a patch.

Again, I'm just fine with debating things, talking about anything, because this is a forum. (While staying on-topic...)

Regarding camera, it works for me, but there is a bug present for a long time. Camera works when first time started, both recording videos, and making photos.

Now if I close the app, and reopen it, it won't work at all. This doesn't happen as long as the app is in the memory. So if I just switch to another app, and then back to the camera app, it will work fine.

If other people can confirm this, and if there is a need for it, I can try to provide logs.

Hmm, camera has been fine for me for a while, though I tried just now (on unofficial 17) and it was fine, I switched to homescreen and immediately back to camera, all good, then after 5-10 photo's it froze totally. I then cleared Camara data, and it just says - can't connect to camera :(

After a reboot, all good, taken 50 photos now, both internal and external SD and no issues, switched to home screen and back, as well as to other apps and back, screen off and back to camera all good now. See how you go with a clear Data, and a reboot?

EDIT: re-read your post and tried exiting and reloading camera, rather than switching and yes is causes error, it froze camera app totally, and from that point on "cannot connect to camera"

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] !crazy:
I was talking about stock. I was testing Google camera a day ago, but haven't check this bug.

I just discovered something crazy. Or maybe it is a new thing, as of latest nightly. I was going to reproduce the bug, and everything went ad expected. But then, instead of tapping the restart camera app, I had opened the camera again (screen black, one cannot make photos.) and then I killed it, by holding back button (this can be enabled in developer options.). And now I'm able to do whatever I want, app just works, and I'm not able to reproduce the bug any more... Go figure. I'm sure I was trying to kill it before too, and it didn't help. I can update apk tommorow, or find a link but app behaves exactly as you described. There is no output, it only enables you to start working camera app again.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] daedric:

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] daedric:
Ok, there might be a bug with the Exynos code on CM11. Here's what i did:

Wipe ALL, wipe data, cache, system, data and data media (internal storage). Removed microsd card, left only my musics and roms there( roms dir have .nomedia) , all photos/videos got moved to the computer.

Flashed CM11 + latest gapps (banks edition). Turned on Wifi, left the phone be.

-- The device showed the normal battery usage for a first boot, nothing major to be found. Screen was on the top.

Added my google account. I'm using 2step auth (for the record). The sync includes contacts, calendar, people. Installed nothing.

I saw no app be updated.

-- Android OS went from nowhere to the top, above screen.

At this point.. i gave up. I flashed a stockish 4.3 and presently, i'm with 82% battery, 2h9m on battery. Screen is on 58%, Battery standy on 8%, same as Android OS.

The thing that made me intrigued is, i have a note (N7000). It's a work phone, no mails, no internet access, no data running. Phone as also been set to 2G, not that it should matter, it just makes all speakers go crazy :). Running CM11 official, i got:

94% Battery, 2h12m battery.

Screen: 46% (4m17s)

Phone inactivity: 18% (2h13)

Phone standby: 11% (2h8m)

Android OS: 10% (CPU total: 35s, awake: 12m)

That's it. 12m, 10% battery on a phone that did NOTHING. I got 4 missed calls, but it was on the charger then.

Worse, i remember this bug on 4.3... on the N7000 also. I'll try to find the commit.

What radio are you running? It is one of the few variables left, CM11 does have an updated RIL, so that can cause issues with older radios
