I tried this, in attempt to restore back to one of my TW Roms (i really want to get off this CM if i can, this issue is scaring me being stuck here) I still get the "E:Error opening '/data/lost+found' , it pops up 4 times during the restore process. (wiping data causes this error)

Even with the error, the restore is successful, but the phone will not boot up into OS, it gets stuck at logo screen forever.

**EDIT

Okay, after restoring Synergy, and it didnt boot, i went back in twrp, flashed the old MB1 firmware, and it booted!

TWRP is still messed up, dont think ill be flashing much. I tried restoring my Stock nandroid and i still get restore failed, Its strange something it works and others it wont.

Can anyone else with ART runtime selected confirm that their sound search widget does not work? Or that it crashes if they try to use the sound search from the Google App?

Edit: I'm on todays nightly (4.4.2) but the issue has been happening since the first nightly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Lorenzo VonMatterhorn:
I have been reading in many places that there is no reason to use ART right now. Are you using it for developing purposes, or do you need it for some reason? Otherwise, the only reason to be using it at this point would be if you want to cause instability in your apps and system.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] drake90001:
I'm just using it because it's the "lastest and greatest" and I'm not sure if it's the ROM's issue or ART's. That's all I was trying to figure out. Thanks for replying, however.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] o0BlacknesS0o:
You have to wipe everything and format data then flash a Rom... Not a backup... You have to flash a rom and then reboot... Go thru setup and then reboot into recovery... Wipe system, data, dalvik, cache... not internal then you can try a backup
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mystikalrush:
The big issue is data cannot be wiped, ive gone into data/lost+found and see 5 of these files, Ive tried deleting them all and leave just 1, but all 5 seem to come back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] o0BlacknesS0o:
Using the twrp file manager... Delete the lost and found folder
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] titanshadow:
In CWM I would go into Mounts and format where it says /data (/data and /data/media)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mystikalrush:
Wont delete, these 4 folders are just stuck left in /data after wiping it. Tried within recovery, and root explorer, i should have never flashed cm11...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] drake90001:
So basically /data/ isn't formatting?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mystikalrush:
Yes, basically, its not completely formatting without receiving an error in recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] o0BlacknesS0o:
Have you wiped what you could and did a fresh install?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
There's a few users that are spreading completely wrong info, so what you read is more than likely wrong.

Art is new and incompatible with many apps, but it is far from only for developer use. In a sense, us users should be using it to inform the devs (mainly app devs) as to what works and does not. It's a much more efficient run environment than dalvik, but is not for the average user at this time. If you plan on flashing nightlies, stay away from it, but if your gonna stick with a build for a while, give it a try. It's far faster, especially on these newer builds. Just do your research first... Enable it on the initial clean flash before adding user apps... You'll be pleasantly surprised at the performance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] drake90001:
Yeah, do you have any method of flashing or it just won't work at all? Odin back to stock and try again? It seems really weird that you can't even do a factory reset.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Gibscreen:
On cm10.2 I was able to hit the home button once to wake it to the lock screen, and hit it again to unlock the phone. Can't seem to do it on cm11. I have the option checked to wake the device with the home button but no go. Anyone have any insight? Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mystikalrush:
I was able to restore a nandroid but recovery still gives me errors.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] titanshadow:
I would Odin back to stock at this point. Something is seriously wrong.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thelangosta:
I'm pretty sure your firmware/modem is okay. You will need to update your recovery as it's several versions behind now. Not sure about Bluetooth on calls as I don't use that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] capt730:
Imcoming audio on bluetooth is good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] smelkus:
I jumped on M11 this morning. Flashed over the 08-01 nightly (I've tried others here and there, but always restored back to this one forever). GPS lock instant and accurate. Bluetooth incoming call working too. NE1 modem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] GHOST99K:
Can I update from nightly to M11 through "CM update"? Last time I tried from nightly to "snapshot" I had infinite "phone" and "dialer" force close. And also currently every nightly from 10-1 and up my incoming phone calls no longer works but everything else is fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] darklavalizard:
I installed M11 through the TeamWin recovery this morning, I still don't trust installing from CM Update due to how it hooks into the recovery. I dirty flashed from the 8/24 build and so far everything has been great with the latest build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XdrummerXboy:
What do you mean by you don't trust cm updater because it hooks into recovery?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] darklavalizard:
I believe the way its scripted is for CWM and not TeamWin, plus when it comes to flashing stuff of ROM nature I trust my steps and procedures more than a generic script.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] GHOST99K:
U deleted data and cache going from nightly to M11? Does incoming calls work on your end?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] darklavalizard:
I deleted dalvik cache and cache and then flashed to M11. Regular incoming calls work on my end, haven't gotten to test the BT incoming calls yet. I'm on the ML1 modem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] adm746:
So per the lobster, I updated cwm and flashed m11 after full wipe. BT SMS calls all good. Should I flash ne1? Will I get better reception?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] capt730:
I haven't noticed a difference after going to NE1 from MF1. If you are in a good signal area already I don't think it will make much of a difference.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thelangosta:
Glad you are up and running. There's no guarantee that the new modem will give you better reception. It seems to help some but not others unfortunately. I think it just depends on where you live and I'm pretty sure no one has figured out how to determine who benefits. If your signal is fine then stay with what you have. If not then try the new modem.?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] orgon3:
Does anybody know the file that saves the default applications? Perhaps that file's permissions are off, even after a full wipe. Are the files per app or just one file for them all? Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XdrummerXboy:
What do you mean by the file that saves the default applications?

Default meaning all of the included Google apps in the GApps flashable zips?

A full wipe (with clearing cache, system, etc) should clear any files remaining from a previous install, meaning any saved permissions too...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] orgon3:
Yes, the file that saves the default actions, not the default programs.

I know a wipe should clear anything, but I'm still having the issue of the system asking me which program to use for default every time I click on a missed call. I'm just trying to figure this thing out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XdrummerXboy:
It HAS to be a software issue.... But the software is completely reset after clean installs...

That's so bizarre man...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] orgon3:
Yeah, tell me about it. It's not like it breaks functionality or renders the phone useless. It's just super annoying knowing that every time I click on a missed call, I have to see that stupid dialog and select something. It's just weird that it persisted after a full wipe/clean install. And that it only happens with the call history. I guess at this point I'll just blame Contacts+ for doing something it shouldn't be. I shall reach out to Contacts+ developers, although I doubt they would help someone on a custom ROM.

Thanks anyway. I appreciate you trying to help out. Especially since we have the same phone! :P
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XdrummerXboy:
What happens if you uninstall contacts+? Just for Sh*** and giggles... Haha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XdrummerXboy:
AnTuTu keeps force closing on me when I try to test. I guess my phone fails :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] orgon3:
Heh. History loads up just fine. Of course, once Contacts+ is gone there is only one program that can complete the task, so it won't ask which should do it. I'll put Contacts+ back on later and post back.

CM11 M11 - Thanks!

CM11 M11 :good: :highfive: :victory: :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XdrummerXboy:
Its not the stock contacts manager right?

Maybe try uninstalling it, installing a different third party contacts manager, set a default, reboot and see if it sticks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] smelkus:
RE: M11... Thought everything was gravy and forgot about the whole SMS/MMS sending receiving issues. Got one SMS not going and one MMS not downloading. Can't wait to upgrade. Just need to figure out which phone.

Even better... Phone says SMS is sending so I kept hitting retry only to find out it went every time and they got four of the same message.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Samsung.Galaxy.S3:
I don't know if it counts, but I sent both MMS and SMS to myself. Both came through just fine. Maybe I should try someone else. :laugh:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikejr83:
GW doesn't work for the S3 on 4.4 AOSP ROMs. It has to do with drivers and the change over from secure element to host card emulation. If you head over to the themes, mods, and apps forum for the S3 there is a thread where this is discussed.

I really wish that some awesome dev would fix that though. I have missed GW so bad!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] samman82:
I'm running slimkat right now, but when I was on cm having sms/mms issues, I switched from lte to global. I retained my lte plus my texts worked instantly. Requires a reboot afterwards. Not sure why it worked, but it did. (I had to switch back to lte when I flashed slim.)

I do think you have to update the binaries in them though. I will look for another post and edit this one if I find it.

Allows you to install the modems. I had to update them to install on my phone.

If you go to install the modem and it fails, let me know. I will upload mine with the updated binaries so they will install.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
New to me. Never heard of such a thing and have flashed them all. There have been builds where something is missing but if build is good all should work. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
Those three I had to update. They are good builds. There was an issue months ago where everything would fail to install, roms, kernels, radios, themes, anything that you flashed in recovery. It had to do with an update in the main code. Took like a month to figure it out. Some people who still build and compile still don't add the updated binaries, so you have to add them yourself. Its easy to do, I do it on my phone.

My first time on CM in a very long time. Latest nightly is very nice! Insane battery life, great performance and everything works except MMS. I can't seem to send MMS, havent been able to test if I can receive. Is there a fix or has it been a bug for a while? Oh Im using Hangouts for SMS/MMS

That post is from Sept. 17th! It's not the one above mine! Why u trying to make me look like more of a noob PR? LOL thanks man. I'l try that file.

What APN am I supposed to select under settings/mobile networks/ apn? Options I have are Verizon 800,CBS, FoTA, IMS, Internet ....

Now Im getting a FC when trying to export a file to my Device with Dropbox... weird.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
HaHaa. I meant you were next post on Sept 17. I was right under yours. lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
Tried that APN file. Still not able to send. Should I try the M11 release and not the latest nightly?

Just noticed that in Hangouts under settings/sms/ Access Point Names I dont have any options for Verizon. The list is MetroPCS and then a bunch of Sprint names...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] matt_man:
You can get Hangouts to work by editing an existing APN entry and saving. Make sure you only edit the MMSC setting if you edit the others the entry will disappear.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
What is the MMSC supposed to be? Sorry never had this issue before.

Well I just tried the stock Messaging app and I get same thing, stuck at sending or downloading. Guess I have to revert to a back up. Dammit.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] haps16:
What gapps can I use... Both links in the OP aren't working? Can I use slim gapps?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Try sending a small image. If you can sms and not mms, and are using the stock apns, maybe it's just too big of an attachment for your area.

Where are you located btw.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
Im in NYC! Im just trying to send a pic that I sent out a hundred times yesterday on a different rom (PA)

All the APN's in hangouts say Sprint.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Ah ok. Try taking the Mms app out of PA.. Hangouts might use the mmsconfig, maybe PA doesn't kang CM's and might have settings that work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
I did that. I'm having a hard time trying things cuz I can't use dropbox without it FCing on me.

---------- Post added at 02:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:56 PM ----------

So I reverted back to my last Rom and everything is fine. In hangouts now, under APN settings the list is blank. I wonder why on CM it had Sprint and MetroPCS listed? Also there is no APN settings under Mobile networks on PA so im not sure how to find out what im using. Sorry to discuss a kang Rom, I know its a touchy subject. Sorry.

Anyway today is my Fiance's bday so I dont have time to mess with this anymore. She's already giving me the look lol. I'll try M11 on Monday. Really hope this can be solved cuz I really liked my time on CM even though it was short lived.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XdrummerXboy:
Ahh, okay. I have all those modems and they installed fine. I don't remember where I got mine from though.

---------- Post added at 12:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:56 AM ----------

I receive MMS, but sometimes they're black and white even though they sent color. Also, a lot of times sending its LOW quality, which is a known issue. Not sure about low quality when receiving.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikejr83:
Anyone running CM and have a paired Wear device? I'm running one of Masta's latest and I can't get more than 9 hours a charge. Is it really because Bluetooth is on all the time?!

I leave my BT on all the time, its not connected to anything most of the time. I can go almost a full day with light use.

I use a logitech bluetooth headset. I use the headphones for hours while driving. Only make occasional calls. I do have a ZeroLemon battery, but that lasts 3 to 4 days for a full charge. Also, i use the BMS kernel.

Just installed M11 last night. Battery life seems at least as good as the 8/24 nightly i was using.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] orgon3:
I don't use it as a contact manager. I use it to sync Facebook/G+ pictures/contacts and merge dupes. That's it. I just re-installed it and once again, it is asking me every time. Sigh.

Can u use a different kernel with Cm11 or do u have to use stock?

Nope, no apn specified.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ffeingol:
I have not tried images, but I can send to groups (MMS).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikejr83:
While KT's kernel was awesome when he kept it up to date it probably will not run on the latest CM11 releases due to it being so out of sync with stock sources.

I have in the past tried releasing it after merging in the latest code but I haven't been working on it since I pretty much suck as a developer. Perhaps if I get some time I'll pick it back up. I'll probably need some help though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] haps16:
Is there a kernel you would recommend with cm11?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikejr83:
I suggest asking over in the Q&A forum. There are too many to discuss in this thread. The stock one works just fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
There is a ktk that will work. I will grab you the link. I have not tried it, but people say it works. Its a unified version.

What's wrong with GPS? Which modem you on?

Hello, m11, ne1 modem, mms doesn't seem to work, GPS locks on God though. Any suggestions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
I've heard switching from global to LTE or vice versa may have helped sms/mms issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ffeingol:
If I'm looking it up correctly, it's MF1. What does the modem have to do with the GPS (pardon my ignorance on that). My issues is that I have no GPS. If I run GPS test (for example) it sees no satellites.

From what I read on the CyanogenMod forum, this is an issue with M11 that hopefully will be fixed in the next milestone.

Thanks! How do I do that, again?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Mobile network settings, preferred network type.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
Mine was already on LTE when I clean flashed M11. Wierd cuz the APN's in Hangouts are still listed as Sprint and Metro PCS but MMS works, and sends very fast, so I'm not messing with it lol.

GPS working fine here. What app are you trying to use with GPS that its not working?

Also if anyone is having issues with Dropbox revert back to last version before this recent update. Works perfectly now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Mines on global and works fine, also have the same apns listed in hangouts and works fine.

Hmm. I almost have no idea what you said. ;)
