[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] senaferdy79:
i have 2 questions, maybe its a super mainstream question, but i dont get the answer yet..

first, what is the difference between CM11 Nighly and Snapshot??

second, how to change the lockscreen wallpaper?? hehe :D
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] kornelius1982:
Stop thinking and install, But don`t forget to install camera fix also I posted few pages before.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] FadeFx:
Iirc these problems were gone for a long time, only ocassiionally xposed framework still caused that. However even this is gone for a while now.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] simplicio11:
Finally fixed in the next nightly: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/77528/

:good:
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] jeevanreddy58:
Nightly are experimental and have lot of bugs and not stable. But snapshot is stable builds with minimum number of defects.

Goto home page and click on menu key , it will show you the themes tab. Click on it and u will see lock screen wallpapers.

Thanks,

Jeevan
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] FadeFx:
Hope this does it, as for me phone app crashed though i was using stock sms
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] senaferdy79:
thank you..

but if snapshot is more stable than nightly, why do a lot of people prefer the nighly version?? it must be have something special, doesn't it?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] jeevanreddy58:
It depends. I do not prefer to install nightly. I don't wanna risk.

If u r interested then try them and see which suits u.

Dude snapshot is exactly what it means in english. It is the state of a nightly in a particular moment of time. Definitively not more stable compared to nightlies. And may contain bugs that were fixed in a later nightly. For example M12 contains the stock SMS crashing bug, which is supposedly fixed, or at least remedied in the nightly of the 19th. To sum it up. Flashing nightlies is a mixed bag of good and bad (fixed bugs and newly introduced once). Entirely up to you to decide if you want to live on the edge or not. Many of us are simply put addicted to flashing of nighties, and we love it!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] senaferdy79:
okay, thanks..

btw, do we have to download the full rom (200mb ++) when update OTA?? i thought we just need to download some files, based one the changelog :confused:
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] jeevanreddy58:
Yes. Full ROM is needed even though it is OTA.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] FadeFx:
You are not completely right, actually a snapshot represents the state of an older nightly, giving the device maintainer time to alow it being built, or not due to instability. Problem is that we currently have no maintainer, meaning that all snapshots get build regardless the stability, which renders you defacto right...
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] kornelius1982:
AFAIK snapshot is based on mixed components of recent nightlies as I`ve compared size and one never match to any nigthly release.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] TWEAKiMP:
Can someone tell me how long we approximately have to wait for 5.0?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] TWEAKiMP:
What is wrong with you lol

Tell me what to read instead of this meaningless advice >.>
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ndttung8487:
Does anyone notice with camera when you touch to focus between bright and dark area on scence, it doesn't seem to correct the light? I mean if you focus the brighter zone on scence, whole picture must dim a little and if you focus on the darker zone, the whole picture must brighter? Sorry for my bad English. This make me feel galaxy s3 does not a BSI camera anymore.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] kkaranjkar:
In the update section......they r not showing available nightlies build (updates).......i'am using M12

Pls help..:)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] jeevanreddy58:
It seems it is defeat. We used to have another field which asks us to select what kind of updates it should check for. Like release , nightly..

That is been removed. Don't know why..
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] kkaranjkar:
Yeah they have removed that selection field...: (
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] VirusPT:
So, is the sms issue fixed on the last nightly?

Thanks, happy weekend everyone!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] simplicio11:
yep
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ferhpsquad:
Is there any flashable fix for sms bug of M12 build?

And camera with its "camera fix" is working ok?

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] senaferdy79:
just use the nightly version and you will be happy :D
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] twinsen.net:
I can't manage to install fresh nighlt over the previous, from 7Nov version. Something must happened with it. The only way for me to have a working ROM, is to flash after FULL wipe. The same zip which refuses to install over it's previous version. And I'm tired of it. No one never explained, what 'can't install this package on top of incompatible data' really means. What script checkes WHAT? Why data is incompatible? And the same /data after wipe is suddenly compatible? MD5 sum is OK, and this happens from nightly to nightly. It happened with the news about Snapshot number 12. So I tried to install it after wipe, then next nightly - the same problem :(
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] JustArchi:
What is wrong with you?

The ROM tells you that you must wipe your /data before install.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] zalimtayyar:
Sim Toolkit

For me Sim Toolkit is broken. I am on nightly 22-11-2014. When I try to use the "mobile signature" service it just doesnt seem to send the signature correctly. Before the signing attempt STK menu seems to function. But after failed sign attempt, none of the options under the STK menu works.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] JHilderbrando:
Wait so do we have to full wipe before flash now as in we can't dirty flash anymore?

That's a big deal to me as I simply flash the next nightly I download with no wipe every few weeks and do a full clean flash every month or so.

Can you confirm no you can't dirty flash a nightly on top of an older nightly?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] twinsen.net:
Man, before every install could be done over the previous one. Was any information, that it's now different? Just one information and there is no problem for me. I know what to do to install every nightly, but I want to cover previous one, without wiping data, and restoring all my apps from backup. So, I'm think there is nothing wrong with me, but with some announcement for cm users, like: "from this <date>, the only way to install nightlies is to wipe data". Period. And no offence, just a little upset with this.

p.s. where can I find information, what /data compatibilities are checked in order to install rom? what is the name of the script, I will run through it and find the reason of that blocking dirty installation message.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] guido_glx:
I've been dirty flashing nightlies for a long time, NEVER had to wipe data...

Enviado desde mi GT-I9300 mediante Tapatalk
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] teppe498:
Exactly! Wiping data is bull!!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sanguinesaintly:
Here's my tuppence worth - Twinsen.net obviously has a problem but we don't know why he has to do a full wipe (maybe back to stock and start over just to get a really clean install ?)

JustArchi seems to contradict the OP :

Upgrading from earlier version of CyanogenMod 11:

- Copy CM11 ZIP to your SDCard

- Boot into Recovery

- Flash CM11 zip from SDCard

- Reboot

Pretty clear - dirty flash, so why are people accusing CM of changing the rules ? Let's calm down and if dirty flash works then do it. Yes, once in a while we may need to clean install a ROM because we've messed something up, but hey - that's life.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] JustArchi:
CM implemented a data-checking feature long time ago, that aborts the install if data is incompatible with new system (ROM). In such situation, you MUST wipe your /data in order to avoid issues.

A workaround is to make a backup of /data, wipe it, flash ROM, then restore /data, but you're asking for problems using such hack. Rom may not boot at all.

If the installer tells you that you need to wipe your data and aborts the install, then it's doing it FOR A VERY GOOD DAMN REASON.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] miketino:
Can anyone help me with this, it's a little OCD thing really, but since a couple weeks ago, in the dropdown quicksettings, the user tile says 'Owner' and has a blank photo instead of my name and picture and I have no idea how to sort it out
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] dark0shark:
Just installed cm-11-20141124-NIGHTLY-i9300.zip by dirty flashing it over the previous nightly - works smooth as always.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] twinsen.net:
Maybe the reason is Xposed? Maybe different partition layout (I use /cache storage for /data, described here:

[GUIDE][REPARTITION] Get extra 1.5 GB (2.4 GB for AOSP users) on user data!?

Maybe Boeffla kernel? :confused: But it worked may times, then stopped.

I'm about to wipe absolutely everything from the phone, revert repartition trick, backup /efs, then repartition with Odin, flash newest available stock, then CWM-Root, then wipe data, cache, dalvik, /system, /boot, /preload, /sdcard and install cm11 again. I then try if I can dirty flash zip from next day.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] simono_pl:
I use Xposed and Boeffla kernel and always dirty flash without any problems.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] svetloslav:
I have no xposed, but I dirty flash each and every nightly. Caution though, Dalvik and cache must be wiped, the rest does not matter. I flash every time also Boeffla and the Camera fix v5 and just in case SuperSu. Works like a charm.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] dark0shark:
I use app 'Cyanogen ROM Downloader' in conjunction with CWM 6.0.4.7 Non-touch Recovery, which does necessary wiping automatically. Works great...
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] cyborgmanu:
Battery Backup?

Can you guys please tell me how much battery backup you are getting with the latest version of Nightly or Snapshot.

I want to know the On screen time and how long did your phone last from 100% to 0%.

For me it was 18hrs and 30mins before my phone turned off with a screen on time of around 3.5hrs.

I just started using the S3 so I don't have any idea about its battery life.

Is this normal battery life?

Shouldn't it last at least 24hrs?

I am using CM11 M12 Snapshot.

I flashed Bofella Kernel now, lets see how it goes now.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] agusdallalba:
Those are very typical numbers. It will last you longer if you don't use it so much :P , the S3 rarely does more than 4hs of screen-on time unless you use a black wallpaper, 'night mode' apps, etc.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] exwan:
Does cm have open delta update like omni for nighlies? Downloading 200mb per few days would kill my quota.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sanguinesaintly:
Try CyanDelta from the store. It only downloads incremental updates.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] exwan:
Thanks. Does the system ui still crash when using theme manager? The bug is still marked unresolved in jira. Or it is fix with latest nightly.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sanguinesaintly:
Sorry I can't help you there. Personally I can't be bothered with Themes as they seem to cause more trouble than they are worth for the insignificant (to me) prettifying of the OS. Each to their own though.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] exwan:
Yeah i know. But if i dont even use the theme engine, will the systemui crash still happen?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sanguinesaintly:
I can't say for sure but make a nandroid and give it a try !
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] marlin333:
I have the same problem. Updated from 26-10-2014 to 24-11-2014, and the STK don't work when performing mobile signature. Anyone have a solution for this?

Am i the only person who gets weird red lines when i take a picture in the dark with flash?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] twinsen.net:
I use CyanDelta for months. Finally I managed to flash 25Nov nightly over 24Nov nightly without problems. But trying to flash 24Nov over some older nigtly wasn't possible.

At least it works now ! Hooray.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Demonhotrod:
Has anyone else found in the last few Nightlies that their notification light doesn't work? Mine doesn't seem to flash or do anything when I get an SMS, Email, Whatsapp message etc etc. I know it works though because it lights up when I charge the phone

Hi I am wanting to know if there is a way to add onscreen Nav buttons? To the rom? If so how? Thanks for your replies and help :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] millo1978:
Yes, you can.

But you must decompile and edit framework-res.apk
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] imation_nz:
Why would they not build it in. Is there anything on x posed?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] kkaranjkar:
Write the following code in the build.prop at the end......

qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

I've got a couple of zip files you can flash after ROM updates to enable or disable the navbar if you prefer. Let me know and I'll stick them in DropBox.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] imation_nz:
Thats would be cool thanks man. But I guess with this way there no way of adding more buttons like a screenshot button. I was using liquid smooth rom and found it quite handy.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sanguinesaintly:
Not as far as I'm aware without using Xposed modules or a different ROM.

Anyway here's the link -

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] imation_nz:
Thanks downloaded

I use Xposed Modules which should I use of those?

---------- Post added at 06:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:48 AM ----------

Can I flash through cwm? Do I need to reformat? Or I can load and unload anytime?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sanguinesaintly:
There's Xtended Navbar which add a sliding dock of buttons - I wasn't impressed.

And yes, you can flash either with CWM or TWRP as you wish. You'll need to reapply after a ROM update but probably easier than editing buildprop every time.

Hi [MENTION=4604352]Moster2[/MENTION], do you think that blanck screen when you reproduce YouTube video on full screen from stock browser is due to missing hwc? Are there any chance to get this issue solved with Nameless sources about hwc (in CyanogenMod 12 I mean)? Thanks :).

I have a question about the Kitkat version (cm11) :

How can I set the OS to have the SD-card restrictions (and back to no restictions) as Google made it work ?

The reason I ask this is in order to test apps (and my app) on devices that have SD-card and Kitkat, but didn't patch it to let apps be able to freely access the SD-card.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Demonhotrod:
Ahhhhh, I found the mention in the Changelog that you mentioned. Is there somewhere we can report this issue? Or should we just hope that other devices are facing a similar problem?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] VirusPT:
Well since I use Boeffla NG Kernel and Snap Camera I never had that "cannot connect to camera" error again and I'm taking of months.

The only issues that I have related to video is that Instagram is unable to convert correctly the videos so gives error when trying to upload.

But I don't know if it's CM or Instagram fault.

hi

since I installed cm11 the camera quality became very bad,

the last version I installed and still had the same problem is cm-11-20141122-NIGHTLY-i9300.

is there a fix for the camera quality ?

thanks
