I had to do a clean install this AM after the whole GAPPS thing. Phone lost my Google account info and wouldn't let me add it back. Google Play Services didn't appear to be installed anymore! Clean install this morning using the last linked PA micro alpha GAPPS package (the one that gave me trouble dirty flashing) and everything appears to be working fine.

One odd thing I noticed doing the install, though. I did my normal wipe procedure (format /system, factory reset, wipe cache) and then installed CM and then the GAPPS package. When I went to flash the latest SuperSU I got an error. I should've noted the exact error on the screen. It was something along the lines of not being able to write to /tmp. I tried clearing cache and then reflashing (I had a kernel package that would do odd things like this and this would fix it) but that didn't resolve it. I went to Advanced and then Reboot Recovery. When the phone had rebooted I was able to flash the SuperSU zip.

I'm wondering if something in the CM or GAPPS packages is locking up /tmp. I also noticed that CWM wasn't able to write it's log to the mount either as I saw errors around this on the screen. Has anyone else seen this behavior?

EDIT: Ugh. The /sdcard got moved around (similar to CM10 -> CM11). /sdcard was moved to /sdcard/0 so that my original sdcard data was pushed to /storage/emulated/0/0. Running

mv /sdcard/0/* /sdcard/

Fixed stuff. You'll need to make sure you don't move the Android folder if you've already restored from Google Play.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
So to try this wipe everything as you should when starting anew or can this be dirted? Anything different need to be done to flash CM12? Can I use a Nand backup of the apps and data I have in CM11 or no good? Thanks, crApple
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
I dirty flash everyday... no issues so far.

You cannot dirty flash from CM11 to CM12... major revisions call for a clean install.. no way around that. You might be able to restore some app data, but I wouldn't attempt any system data.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
Are you back to building everyday for a new nightly?

Sent from my ghost white SGS3!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
No, been doing like every 2 or so days. Unless I see something good fixed or added.

This build should have the new audioFx dsp and also has the location icon sticking fix. I had to cycle gps off then on to get rid of the stuck icon, but it works.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
Sweet, that's about how often I was gonna flash. I will download tonight and install tomorrow afternoon.

Again, thanks for your hard work!!!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenny1974:
I didn't mess with GPS and the icon eventually went out on its own. You're doing an amazing job with these builds and I always look forward to the next release
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
I guess an app calling for location does the trick then.

Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
Very good. Thanks a bunch.

Titanium Backup won't restore apps?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aromig:
For many apps, yes. Worked well prior to Titanium's most recent update a day or two ago. Hopefully it will be resolved soon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droid316:
Damn I just updated my titanium backup like a hour ago to and I'm one of those guys who has 300 apps lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] matt_man:
On my SCH-S986C after clean installing the 12/05 build along with the pa micro gapps, I can't install any apks from my SD card or the humble bundle app. After updated I restored apps from TB and the play store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] LLStarks:
Why does CM12 spam phones to death with notifications at certain low battery thresholds?

I have a 2 amp charger, and I am still losing battery because apparently Low Battery Mods cannot be enabled to disable those notifications while charging.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bitemeoftn:
Audio is still only at half speed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenny1974:
My audio and video was playing half speed at first, but started working properly after a few hours
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bitemeoftn:
Hopefully that's my case and I just jumped the gun a little too quick.

EDIT: Videos did start playing correctly after a little while, but Pandora was still half speed. Disabled NuPlayer as suggested a few posts down and it's playing correctly now too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
where exactly does audio/video play at half speed?

Can you guys go into dev options and disable nuplayer and see if it helps?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikejr83:
Try rebooting. I was having trouble downloading in chrome and got SD card errors. I rebooted and it went away. Also, make sure you don't have a /sdcard/0 folder (/storage/emulated/0/0). For some reason I had this issue and had to move my sdcard contents from the 0 folder. I haven't had any problems restoring apps+data from TB for user apps (I would highly advise not doing that for system apps).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenny1974:
When it first happened on 12/5 I disabled nuplayer, but videos wouldn't play at all. Videos on Facebook and music on Pandora was my issue. It's working great now tho
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Flowah:
Could you try Netflix, Youtube, and a Twitch streaming app like Vortex or Twitch.tv? It wasn't working for me on any of the previous builds.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenny1974:
I'll try YouTube and Netflix

Both are working
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AndroidCrusader:
YouTube and Tune in work for me on 12/10, but Pandora is slow. Netflix is stuck loading the video.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] matt_man:
I moved the files from the extra 0 folder and rebooted and it still doesn't work. Maybe I'll just try another clean flash later this evening.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Flowah:
Hm... wonder why it works for you but not the guy below you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenny1974:
Pandora ads played fine, but music was slow again. It was working for me on the previous build

*Edit* disabled nuplayer and its working again
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pickaxe300:
Really itching to flash this... Gotta get my fix.. Lol Has the camera issue been resolved? I've been keeping up on the posts, but haven't seen recent issues with it being mentioned.. Also, I rarely use the stock camera app... Just FYI. I use camera zoom fx.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenny1974:
Camera still isn't working for me. If I force close it and change the settings it will take one pic then stop working
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SDQB17:
Camera not working still for me...worked once and that's it. Also a weird tidbit....everytime I open the browser, does not not matter what page, can be you tube, android central, anything...iy always starts downloading the last thing I downloaded, in this case...the only thing I have downloaded with my phone is this rom. LOL So everytime I open a browser window to anything, I start downloading cm12. Very strange.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenny1974:
Click the pages tab in the browser and make sure all pages are closed. I had that happen to me after I rebooted
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Master Cylinder:
This didn't work for me - wrong directories.

It's a mess, that's for sure, on fresh installs of cm12. .:eek: You might need to do your moving in /data/media because that is the real directory - the others are just linked to that, n'est pas? Also, It's possible to have /data/media/0/0/0 and have your stuff in there!! That's what happened to me the first time I fresh flashed 12/10 This is just like when 4.1.x moved to 4.2.x. When it installs, it creates empty directories in the normal "/emulated/0" which is really /data/media/0 but those are empty except for Android, which fills as you install stuff. You already have that folder on your real sdcard stuff and it's a lot more full. Overwrite that one too?

Don't forget there are also hidden files and folders in your original directory!

Mine is FUBAR from ... not sure. Restoring a nandroid left out Wifi.

Also, TWRP don't work at all anymore for me on the new builds, either installing or restoring a newer one or a dirty flashed older one. Won't boot. Have had to switch to Philz.

Also, Philz has an option to designate /sdcard as /data/media/0 or /data/media. When I changed this to the second one I had less "/0" I had to deal with and the fresh install automatically updated/installed all of my apps, but with the extra "/0" I had to install everything manually.

Why don't they have an emoji for cluster eff?

EDIT: Don't listen to me - now I can't get a nandroid to boot or install with Philz...:crying:

EDIT: Hurray! I'm back in business. Guess I shouldn't have played around with the Android folder, if that was it. Also deleted the /0 folders.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
Took that on my way home tonight. No reboots, force closing, only issue I have is no video. I know there is a fix, just lazy to look for it, I don't video much.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenny1974:
Did you do anything to make it work or did it work right away?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MrBrady:
There's a fix for video? Is your photo from the stock camera, Google Camera, or other?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
Ya you need to change the resolution or something. There was a post about it a few pages back.

I used snap camera, by a member here, dzo. When I first came to 12, it would not work, the normal fc everyone has. Since the third build I've had no issues, only with video.

Worked right away. See above.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MrBrady:
Thanks. The lack of camera & video is the only thing that's keeping me from CM12. Perhaps I'll give it another try.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
If your camera does not work out of the box, read back a few pages and look for the fix. I know you have to change the resolution for it to work correctly. I just don't remember what it is off hand.

Thanks for the info.

I did a few searches and found a post by [MENTION=2963287]mastamoon[/MENTION] about changing to a lower resolution. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=57177330&postcount=1715

I know this is a long shot of a question, but....

In your next build, is there a fix for Bluetooth?? Here's what is happening with mine. Music plays fine, I have all controls. Phones calls, don't ring, can't answer, have to reboot phone to call back because the dialer force closes and refuses to open again.

Also, don't know if its related to the incoming calls with the BT issue or not, but I cannot set a custom ringtone. When I do, it will play in settings, the preview, but then when I exit it does not save it.

I had a similar problem with on of my Jabra earpieces. However, my other Jabra and a Jawbone work fine. I haven't tried the first non-working one on this new build yet.

Notice:

Ive updated the OP with links to where my CM12 files are found. Instead of posting every build in a new post.. just head to my site (or the OP) and find the latest build.

Since it looks like im not getting a new phone anytime soon, I might start releasing these via the RomDb app that you probably have noticed on your phones. This will automatically notify you of new builds when I release them. But for now, just check my site for builds. I may still post a 'new build' post here, but not always. Ive been releasing builds every like 2 days.. usually M-W-F between 2-3PM EST.. so that should give you a time/date of when to look.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
I am sure when someone sees a new build, that someone will post it.

I am looking forward to the db you have setup. I liked that on 11.

Any reason you're not upgrading? Waiting for the N6 on VZW? I just don't know what device to go to right now. I've basically been trying to see what all my favorite devs are doing (read: I'm waiting to see what masta is doing).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Flowah:
I'm not upgrading because there are no good, reasonably sized, new phones for VZW that aren't totally locked down. I need them ROMs and root. Otherwise I'd be all over the Turbo or Moto X.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SDQB17:
Is the motox locked down and will it ever be unlocked? I only ask cause i was considering that or the N6 ( but I have small hands) as my contract ran out last week. Thank god for your cm12's because that is what actually has me considering keeping this phone...lol I have had more fun with it recently than ever:) :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] deuce237bblock:
I upgraded to the LG G3, that was a mistake. The BL never got unlocked like it was promised, instead we got a "Loki" like workaround called "bump" where the boot.img needs to be "bumped" to boot. The phone is just very sluggish in general, I don't see this phone having good performance as we get OS updates. The GS3 on the other hand is very fast no matter what version of android is running on it. Anyway, I want to sell my LG G3 and get the N6, or possibly wait for the nexus 6 knock-off moto device rumored for 2015 here: http://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/motorola-droid-branded-nexus-6/ hope masta gets the N6 or the new moto.

I have been instructed to flash the CM12 ROM on my MetroPCS GS3, and network can't be found. I know it was probably stupid thinking it'd work, but I had even tried changing the updater script. Anyway, it booted fine, but sound won't work, the camera (google or stock) won't work, I don't get data, and I can't switch my CDMA Subscription from RUIM/SIM to NV. Wondering if I can fix these symptoms or do I have to give up on LP for a while?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] matt_man:
Try inserting a sim card. That fixed data on the straight talk variant. Open Camera works.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] iZandeR:
I have my SIM card in there, and it won't detect it. Although I'm pretty sure CDMA doesn't actually have SIM cards, they're just for internet I think.

Anyway, I'm open for more suggestions
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Look some posts back, there is a GSM ril blob flashable zip. I can upload it if that link don't work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droid316:
Everything running great so far, my backup pro restored all of my apps along with the play store, open camera works good just force closes like everyone else's, would like to see a torch light option, like being able to wake the phone with the volume up and down buttons, never mind lol I just saw that it does have a flashlight button as I was typing that.Also wished it had the hardware buttons like kit Kat had on the bottom of the phone,ivona text to speech doesn't work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenny1974:
All of those options are in the settings
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droid316:
I got the two options set but I don't think you can have two sets of hardware buttons like on the bottom of the screen

so what is working and what isnt on the cm12 builds? im on liquid smooth 4.0 beta and was wondering if cm12 is any better.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenny1974:
There's a few problems. Camera, video, and BT. I tried liquid last night, but came right back to Mastamoon this morning
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mtsprite:
is that all, cause i can live without all those.mainly i just wanna switch cause im really missing home button waking.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenny1974:
In my opinion this just an all around smoother ROM
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aromig:
Agreed, I came back quickly after taking it for a test drive. Ironic considering that ROM's name. Love Masta's CM12 nightlies, phone runs incredibly well. Aside from Xposed, the only other thing I'm really missing is the theme engine so I can invert with Thyrus' dark material theme.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] iZandeR:
Haha I go to Rowan, but I live in Union County. I have friends from Brick, lol.

Anyway, is there any chance that this could become CDMA friendly? We're dying for an LP ROM :/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Is metropcs a sprint partner? If so, you'll likely need sprint's ril blobs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] iZandeR:
It's owned my T-Mobile as of recent, but it's part of the d2lte variant of roms. I'm not really sure what it is though, T-Mobile is GSM
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
If its T-Mobile you'll need the GSM ril blobs. D2lte was just a universal rom setup, but cm went back to seperate roms per carrier. So now, even though a d2vzw rom might boot/run on a d2mtr phone, you'll still need the correct ril blobs to do so.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] iZandeR:
I know for a fact 100% that my phone is CDMA though, so GSM doesn't sound too good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
If you are using phone on a GSM network like T-MOBILE, you need the GSM ril blobs. If you don't want to try it, I don't know what to tell you.

My d2vzw is also cdma, but if I wanted to use it on a GSM network, I'd need GSM radio blobs. That's the way it is.

Flash the zip, if it doesn't work, flash the rom again and your right back where you are now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] iZandeR:
Gotcha, I'm just a little apprehensive since yesterday I temporarily lost my IMEI and Baseband lol. I can give it a try later on.

REF: My Experience With This ROM.

Hello Everyone.

After reading the many threads/postings here, in this forum, and on the Google Plus postings, I decided to give this ROM a try. I am happy that I did, because I am loving it!! So far, I have no issues. Keep in mind, I did only flash it this morning. I will continue to use this as my daily driver and post an update by the end of this week or next week. By the way... The camera that's installed, with this ROM, works fine. No 'Force Close' like I experienced on another Lollipop ROM. Also, I am able to enable the percentage for the battery (Too bad it's not separate though).

Now... I have a question ~ ~ ~ Where is the option to change the 'sound' profile on the fly (Holding the Power button for Menu Options)?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Master Cylinder:
Whoa Cowboy!! Going back and forth between a 4.3 TW ROM and this ROM via nandroid hoses the LP one. Either it won't restore - errors out attempting to restore the /system archive, or it boots but presents an error "Process system isn't responding. Do you want to close it? " asking to wait or press ok. Able to only get the power menu and it worked.(Just rebooted it but it's stuck with that freaking arrow going round and round.) Restored again, same thing. Same thing yesterday. Have fresh installed a lot of these lately.:crying:

I'm using the last Philz in cwm mode with medium compression. Both the TW and LP work fine restoring, unless it comes after restoring the TW.

I'm using 12/1 with this because I couldn't get 12/8 or 12/10 to fresh install and boot (I can't tell you how many hours I wasted watching that arrow go round and round...) and 12/12 dialer/phone is borked on mine.

Guess I gotta decide if I can make this my daily driver because I can't figure out a way to go back and forth to TW, though I haven't tried to restore a KK backup yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenny1974:
I use d2vzw on straight talk. When I first tried it there was no calls, text, or data. I inserted a sim card that I had lying around from a Verizon phone and everything works perfect now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Yeah I believe you must have a sim card inserted, even if you're not using it.
