There's an attempted fix to the Bluetooth wakelock issue. Can't wait for tomorrow's nightly!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 250 or Point 65:
Is anyone still having camera problems? It seems anytime i use my camera, the problem happens when I rotate the camera too quickly after opening the app.

Also, if I am able to get the camera to work, it lags on rotation every rotation.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lakingslayer:
I'm on the 2/6 build and the camera on my S3 rotates with very little lag. I use the 3Mpixel setting. Not sure if that matters.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] harry_seaward:
If you're camera is crapping up, turn off continuous focus.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 250 or Point 65:
I don't see an option for continuous focus...but I am now on the 2/6 build and it is still messing up and has on every build i've tried.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] spscoral:
Has anyone tried the 2/7 nightly as far as bluetooth is concerned? I see there is a fix for the BT wakelocks in the changelog. I might try it since better battery life would be great, but 2/5 and 2/6 have worked so well, I'm scared BT might get screwed up again on 2/7.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] merdely:
I haven't tried to see if my Bluetooth still works or not yet. But the wakelock problem is still there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ned4spd8874:
I tested the alarm & dock sound issue last night and it wasn't working for me. I remember someone wrote here that it was working again. Anyone have any insight on this? It's really annoying to not be able to put my phone into the dock charger at night.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lakingslayer:
2/7 build.

BT is working well in my car except for my ability to hear the SiriusXM app sound. I think it's my car compatibility with CM/Sirius issue. Others have gotten it to work with their cars so I guess I need to get a new car. Damn! I just bought two new ones. I'm screwed. LOL. Also my other apps such as iHeart Radio and Apollo work just fine streaming music via BT in the car and I can stream the Sirius through my block rocker at home. I can live with that pretty easily.

Phone connection seems to connect just as quickly as it did when I had 4.3 and previous ROM's installed. Nice job CM developers.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] spscoral:
I'm on 2/6 and my battery isn't doing any worse than it did with various TW 4.3 ROMS and kernels. If they can get the wakelock issue solved, CM11 will be far better on battery life than TW 4.3 for me.

Thanks for the info - sounds like we're at least not losing any ground as nightlies come out. I'm already pretty happy with 2/6 as a daily driver so any improvements will just be icing on the cake.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NegativeOne:
Are you guys using the standard GAPPS or the ParanoidAndroid ones?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lakingslayer:
I'm using Gapps 12/30 version.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] brockkk:
YouTube over 4g is working for me now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] colklink14:
I have been doing clean installs on every nightly I have used. The rom itself runs great. I have the basic Ford sync. It connects dandy, I can make a call, but the next call I make via sync does not work. I request the name, it acts as it should but I get 'call ended'. I am not whining, just providing info.

Thanks to everyone involved
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ChiefIlliniwek5:
I'm on the 2/06 nightly and throughout most of today the battery was depleting normally and I also connected with my cars BT. Then on the ride home I was listening to music via BT and it decimated my battery. Now my battery is depleting a lot even when BT is not connected to anything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Yep. Should be fixed in tomorrow's build.

Cycle bt to kill the batt drain after usage.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NeoMagus:
I think this is the commit masta is talking about. Great work tracking it down and getting it worked out guys. :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ChiefIlliniwek5:
I turned BT off and the drain continued so I'm thinking there may have been more going on. But I'm excited for the change you are referring to
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
That's weird, I thought turning bt off stopped the drain.. But maybe that was a different bt problem. Lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bdr9:
I'm using Nova Launcher and whenever I install/update an app in Google Play, it says "Unfortunately, Trebuchet has stopped". I'm using the 2/1 nightly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] brockkk:
But seriously, has ANYONE found a way to disable the back capacitive button? driving me NUTS. lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rmg88888888:
Xposed Additions should be able to disable it. Search for it in the play store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] merdely:
I won't be able to set BT in my car until tomorrow afternoon EST, but the wakelock problem seems fixed in 0108.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] chowner:
Anyone else having horrible battery life with 02/07?

Also it is taking forever to charge with 02/07 and 02/08. It has taken me 6 hours to go from 15 to 60%. Anyone else having charging problems?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] merdely:
Nope. My battery life has been good. 68% after 6 3/4 hours. And I'm in a basement with bad signal and no wifi right now. I had bluetooth enabled for about 4+ hours (with nothing connected) and that had been draining my battery until 0208. So, try upgrading to 0208 and see if your battery life is better (assuming you use BT).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ChiefIlliniwek5:
My battery on 2/8 has been good with BT on and nothing connected. However on the 2/7 build my battery began draining after I had connected a BT device. I'm not sure if 2/8 has the same problem yet
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] chowner:
I had no battery or charge issues on 1/31 however battery life on 02/7 was horrible with less than average usage. I don't use bluetooth. Now with 02/08 having this slow charge deal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] brockkk:
Thank you!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] yhknq:
anyone having wifi issues?

my indicator in the quick settings panel is orange and my apps load very slowly if at all.

my laptop on the same network is working fine.

i have reset the router and forgot the network on my phone

still no luck

thanks for any help

im on the 08 nightly with pa gapps

**** edit

i finally solved my issue

in my router settings i had to disable the IPv6 settings

everything seems to work smoothly again
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] LudicrousPeed:
This flashable zip can disable the hardware keys. I love it. Lets you have on-screen soft keys. You can set it to have one of many configurations, including setting the hardware home button as a camera launcher while making the capacitive buttons disabled etc.

I have been unable to change volume sometimes from the home screen. Sometimes it works though. If it isn't working, it will work when I enter any app. Anyone else experience this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RedRumy3:
Hmm everything is running so good. Running the latest nightly I did notice it took a long time to charge as well I was at 5% last night woke up and it was at 85% not sure usually it's charged by the time I get up. But after that battery life is good so not sure what was up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] palluk33:
What is the most stable version? I just downloaded the 2/8/2014 and the facebook notifications don't, Skype don't work or facebook messenger notifications don't work.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] o0BlacknesS0o:
I don't use Skype but my Facebook ones are working just fine
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ericsdeadinside:
When did they remove the normal SMS app?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lakingslayer:
The Playstore version can be the culprit. I use the gapps-kk-20131230-mm.zip version and the messaging apk is there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rednukleus:
2/7 fresh install. Cannot get any GPS satellites detected even after switching to a US GPS server and rebooting. I did encounter the very slow charging issue today. I charged for 2 hours with data and wifi disabled and was still in the teens. Now charging in the car on my usual car charger that normally slowly builds charge even during use. Battery has dropped to 5% while charging and web browsing & maps. Otherwise it's running excellently.

2/9 daily build

Getting crazy battery drain on 2/9. Not sure if anybody else is seeing it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SerialTurd:
I am as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] merdely:
Battery was draining pretty quickly today. How was 2/8 for you guys?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hybridnoob:
Clean install 2/8 has been great! I'm getting 13 hours with 2+ hours of screen time, 1 hour of GPS, and Pebble connected all day. Mix of WiFi and LTE.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cheekoo:
Any experience with the latest M3 build?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] im_on_fire:
Try it out and let us know
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xs11e:
OK so far. Haven't tested Bluetooth yet but it worked for the last couple of builds so I'm hopeful....

Later: BT connects and re-connects as it should, camera works OK.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] skrusrnmz:
Camera still broken in M3 Snapshot

The camera is still broken. I read the incredibly long change log and got excited about all the camera mentions.

I did a clean install. On first-boot I was messing with some phone settings (display brightness, sleep timeout, etc.) and got Unfortunately, Trebuchet has stopped. So I let the phone sit for a while and then rebooted.

Gave it a few minutes after boot, launched the camera and then rotated to landscape. I realized it was hanging when I tried to click the No Thanks button to store location in images and nothing happened. And then the camera crashed. Now I get Can't connect to the camera.

Rebooted to fix camera. Launched camera in portrait and hit No Thanks to location info. Rotated to landscape fine. Switched to video, waited a few seconds and switched back to camera and it crashed again.

Trebuchet crashes every time I long-press an app shortcut in the dock and drag it up to App Info. Doesn't do it for apps on the desktop or in the drawer.

For the record I'm on cm-11-20140210-SNAPSHOT-M3-d2vzw with gapps-kk-20140105-signed.

Going back to 10.2.1 for the time being. The camera is a deal-breaker for me.

Not *****ing, just thought I'd share my experience. I really do appreciate the hard work still being put into this device.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cfairchi:
I'm also on M3 and 20140105 gapps. Could not get camera to crash, but charging seems to be VERY slow.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] skrusrnmz:
I just rebooted and repeated the crash. It happens every time when I launch camera, switch to video, and then switch back to camera.

This is on a fresh, clean install with nothing else installed yet.

I'm going to wipe and reinstall to see if that fixes it and will report back.

Edit: Yup, factory reset and wiped dalvik. Reinstalled ROM and gapps. Rebooted and let settle for five minutes or so. Repeated camera crash.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cfairchi:
Yep, just tried it again and it crashed on me this time. Think I had to go landscape then switch to video and back to camera and it crashed. Can't connect to camera after that. Not even in camera zoom fx
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PSUFINN:
I'm on m3. No problem with the camera. Try gapps-kk-20131208

Edit. I'm also using the kt747 kernel if that has anything to do with it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] harry_seaward:
You guys with the camera issues are certain you're not using 'Continuous' focus mode? Switching it to 'Auto' immediately fixed all of my camera issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ChiefIlliniwek5:
I'm on the 2/8 nightly and it is a champ. BT auto connects, it doesn't drain the battery when its not connected, and battery life overall has been stellar. Unless something changes I think I've found my dd until a stable version is released.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RedRumy3:
I can confirm for me as well switching camera to video and back to camera causes it to crash and I have to reboot phone to get it working again, I don't have it on continuous focus and it's still crashing. I'm on the latest nightly and stock kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] merdely:
I have the same experience. Camera works too. The camera lock screen widget doesn't, so I disabled it. I never use it anyway.

FWIW: 2/9's nightly had a significant battery drain, so I restored to 2/8 and have been happy today. I've made two BT calls through my car and have 70% battery left after 6.75 hours.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sean Z:
Hey guys

So I'm on the 2/7 nightly build, everything works but as soon as I connected my phone in my car, it plays my music fine but it doesn't show the music info? And also, I made a phone call and it seems that the reception is really bad through blue tooth but not when I disconnected it from my blue tooth from my car. Additional info: I have a 2013 Honda Accord with HandsFreeLink

OMFG GTFO STFU!!!!!!!!!! Uploading videos now works on the M3 Snapshot!!!!!!!!!! In Instagram
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ned4spd8874:
I'm running the 2/5 nightly and just realized that when I plug my phone into my computer it no longer shows as a drive. Tried multiple USB ports, other things work. Everything seems set correctly on both my laptop and the phone. It worked just fine with my previous nightly. Any ideas???
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NeoMagus:
Not an issue yet here on 2-8 coming from 1-20

Deep sleeps fine with Bluetooth on and all my stuff works like it should

(** I have MF1 firmware / ML1 radio/ stock kernel)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ChiefIlliniwek5:
My idea....don't buy foreign cars! :p

On a more serious note, try flashing the 2/8 build. I and many others have had a lot of success with it in regards to BT connectivity and battery life.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AlphaXray:
Sorry if this has been brought up recently, but has anyone's GPS been screwed. Google Maps more so. It's been very overcast here the last 2 days so it may be that...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] slambert27:
I kept saying to myself... "Hmm, no one else seems to be reporting the GPS issues I'm having.". I ended up tightening my access for the third time. Been solid since
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] npro1464:
What does "tightening the access" mean? Is gps any better then 10.2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lakingslayer:
Tightening the screws is so the antenna makes better contact with the main board.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gt43aw:
I just toggle location and GPS services and it seems to fix the issue for me......
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 250 or Point 65:
What is this "Continuous" focus that keeps getting mentioned? That isnt an option that I see.

Is this the problem with the camera? Some people have different 'stock' camera apps than others?

2/8 "fixed" the camera for me and the M3 keeps it "fixed"

There is still about a 1 second lag as the on screen camera buttons swap orientation.....is that what everyone else is getting? I don't have the lag when using Focal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] slambert27:
Sorry. Auto correct strikes again. **Screws. Tighten the screws. Hahah

Anyone use today's nightly yet? I am on 2/6 and am thinking of doing the update, but not sure where to update to. Not seeing 2/8 in the about>Cyanogenmod Updates. It goes from 2/6 to 2/9-11. Is the SNAPSHOT good with BT and battery?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hellven:
Ok, so am trying to do a clean install of the 2-8 nightly. I have done a nandroid like normal and then when I install the rom it gives me an error "sorry Phone has stopped" I have tried redownloading the rom, using different gapps nothing seems to help. When I restore from backup, everything works fine. I try to reflash the new rom and the phone stops. Any ideas?:confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] merdely:
The CM Update only shows a small number of recent updates. You can download it from here:

I am using 2/8. 2/9 had significant battery drain for me (even though BT worked). So, I'm sticking with 2/8 until I see a commit (or feedback) that the problem has been resolved. In fact, on 2/8, there isn't anything that I use daily (except for the barcode reader in MyFitnessPal) that isn't working.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WarER4X:
M3 working good so far

M3 is working good for me so far. I had trouble at first, though. When I was on the 2/6 build, I froze Trebuchet with Ti Backup because it kept giving me force close messages even though I wasn't using Trebuchet as my launcher. I forgot about that when I flashed the M3 build and when it started up, it gave me a few different problems. I defrosted Trebuchet and reflashed M3. Now, everything is working good and I don't have to freeze Trebuchet anymore because it is behaving... for now.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RoboJoe:
Do you have the right version of GAPPS? Sounds like you might have the 4.3 version.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bmeek:
I've updated to the 2/11 nightly and all is well. A long walk listening to NPR via Bluetooth while exercising gps with the Google MyTracks app, and the battery drain has been less than I've learned to expect.

Not sure about why the latest build has an LED pulse-on-boot feature (and a "spice up the pulse" kernel addition), but everything seems to be running well...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] chowner:
Found the light interesting as well. what's "spice up the pulse"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NeoMagus:
It's probably the nightly he's using, I use bluetooth daily between my S3 and 2013 Si Navi and haven't encountered an issue yet on 2-8 , no skipping audio, info shows, steering controls work, phone calls and texts come thru..

You can keep your Ford or Chevy lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bmeek:
Someone else suggested you may have the wrong gapps (which will result in that error). I just thought I would add that since the cm11 install scripts are designed to preserve gapps during nightly updates, a "clean install" should include a format of /system in addition to a data wipe before installing the .Zip.

Also, you may as well install the latest nightly or yesterday's snapshot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hellven:
Thank you for your comment, I am, and have been using PA 4.4.2 full modular. It has been running on my nightlies since 1-27 nightly. So I doubt that is the issue. I also tried using the older version from PA that I used with the 12-7 nightly, and it still does not work. I will triple check that I have correctly formatted system. Again, thank you for you comments and response.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hybridnoob:
What modem/firmware are you running?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ned4spd8874:
Just updated to the 2/11 nighly but my computers still don't see the phone as a drive. Any thoughts?

Just poking around the settings and noticed that under tethering and hotspot, it says "USB not connected". Weird. It's connected and the phone is being charged via USB.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] chowner:
What OS?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] skytbest:
What kernels are people using with this ROM? About to do a clean flash of the 2/8 nightly and looking for some good suggestions for battery life. I know it varies based on how you use your phone but some suggestions would be nice!

Thanks!

Edit: Also, do I need to flash any modem/firmware when installing? Or should it have the latest already?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ned4spd8874:
Both computers are running Windows 7 and have worked previously.

Also, I just noticed another thing. When it's plugged in, I don't get the little USB debugging icon in my notification area either. The phone definately doesn't think it's connected to my computers.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] esjames:
To those who are looking for the gapps download, cyanogen has a link on their website that has been provided for them.

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bmeek:
Yeah, I sensed that you have the requisite experience to use compatible GAPPs, but you didn't say what ROM you were coming from... Good question from Hybridnoob about your firmware/modem - I noticed a reference to d2 kernel updates related to ML1 (although I guess that wouldn't affect your issues with the 2/8 build).

I suspect that a fresh download and a truly-clean install will set you straight. good luck with it...

---------- Post added at 01:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:59 PM ----------

I suspect this feature is a descendant of decimalman's "Glorious animations" that showed up in the dkp kernel about a month ago...

---------- Post added at 01:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:13 PM ----------

Running the same build here and USB functions are all good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ned4spd8874:
It started when I performed a clean, fresh install of the 2/5 nightly. Just realized it recently, but before that was the last time I'm 100% sure it was working.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bmeek:
There've been a number of kernel-level fixes for this device recently in the native cm11 kernel that you want, so I've been sticking with it for the most part. when everything's stable and up-to-date, I've been a fan of the dkp kernel due to decimalman's "freelunch" CPU governor and one of TCP tweaks he offers...

hey all, anyone else getting a behavior when you click on NFC it greys out, but never turns on? I think google wallet didn't work on kk but NFC did. However, i can't even turn it on. Latest nightly. Fresh install (complete wipe, including /system)

_---------------------------------

Nevermind. Battery pull solved the issue.

----_-------+-------------

Spoke too soon. Its greyed out again......
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] scorchedsky:
I've seen this behavior on TW roms and AOSP roms - I have come to believe it's somewhat hardware related, it's intermittent and happens with every battery I try. It will work fine for a bit after a reboot, but it eventually greys out and dies. :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] skytbest:
I'm getting a persistent notification from the default text messenger app. I restored my texts from my previous ROM and I have a feeling that is what caused it. It is saying I have 400 unread texts I know this probably isn't a ROM specific problem, but does anyone know how to get rid of this? Tried restarting, clearing it, etc.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Defragger51:
Installed 02/11 around 12:15 noon, recharged til about 1:00 noon to full charge used Bluetooth for a 15 min call, been on Bluetooth all day and not connected and at 9:35 pm I still have 80 % battery left. I would have to say best battery life I have ever seen.. I did have to reboot phone after changing from video to camera because it FC and camera would not work again until I rebooted.. The flashing blue led on phone boot up seems like a waste of energy to me. Does anyone Know of a way to get Google Wallet to actually work ( make a payment).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShhImSleeping:
Could someone try using the camera via swiping right-to-left on the lockscreen and attempt to change the flash setting? I have a secure lockscreen, but I'm not sure if that matters.

Every single time I do, camera freezes, crashes, then uses up a ton of battery in the background for some reason until I restart the phone, and I'm curious if anyone else is experiencing this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 250 or Point 65:
If you are using Hangouts, just disable the stock app or disable the stock app's ability to cause notifications.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pmdied:
Hows the battery on wifi? Ive noticed very good battery life on recent4.4 builds on a few different non TW roms but wifi seems to drain quickly. Other than that, excellent roms.
