[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustArchi:
Now it's making sense.

Do you have any frandom enablers apart from ArchiDroid implementation? If yes, disable them.

If this error stills pops up, disable frandom in ArchiDroid app.

If you update, from any ArchiDroid version to another, be prepared for a full wipe, nobody can assure you that full wipe isn't required. Full wipe can be required due to:

a) Important changes/incompatibilities in the base (AD 1.X likes that due to Sammy's updates)

b) Important changes/improvements in ArchiDroid itself (very rare, my code is very universal and clean, last occurance was in 1.6.X and 2.2.X if I remember correctly)

c) User applications, which don't like system updates, "incompatible apps". The more applications you have, the higher chance that they can not work properly and cause a bootloop.

d) Your luck

You were right JustArchi. When I took out my external card, the error stooped happening. When I put it in again, the problem came back. Any way to fix it without formatting internal? :)

I have a weird issue. I had it in 1.7.5, so I reverted back to 1.7.4 and didn't have the issue. I just flashed 1.7.6 and the weirdness is back.

I loose root. I open SuperSU and it says there are no binaries installed and it can't install them. I reboot into Philz recovery and reroot. Then, I have to download SuperSU from Google Play.

I have no boot animation whatsoever.

Nothing I can't deal with, but I thought it was strange.

Issue 1 indicates that my backend isn't working properly, this is sad.

Issue 2 indicates that not only backend doesn't work...

Which kernel?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s14sh3r:
Yank555. I tried it as a forced update and as a full wipe. Same result on both. Maybe it's something in the way I'm setting it up in Aroma? I don't make a whole lot of changes from the default preset. I install Samsung Calendar and Gallery. I check the Boeffla sound so I can use my own config later. I uncheck LMT and Cool Tool (I don't use them). That's pretty much it, that I can think of. I tried it as soon as it booted and I signed into Google, but before I restored any settings or apps.No root. If you need me to, I can reflash and list exactly what I change when I flash. I rerooted and I'm restoring my apps from TB at the moment, but I can do whatever you need when it's finished.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustArchi:
I'd be more than grateful if you could check other kernels, f.e. boeffla.

Also, provide me with your current RunOnce.log and Init.log (from /data/media/0/ArchiDroid folder).

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s14sh3r:
Flashing now. I'm typing a log as I do. I'll update this post in a few

*UPDATE*

Log I typed as I reflashed:

Unchecked Archidroid OTA

Unchecked LMT and CoolTool

Selected Samsung Calendar and Gallery, left FM radio checked

ArchiDroid Powersave kernel preset (default)

No changes in Xposed modules

No changes in Buildprop tweaks

Selected "Yes, I don't have Archidroid"

Flash, reboot.

Have boot animation

Double boot, didn't have before

Set up phone as usual, signed into Google, but unchecked "Bring apps, settings, and other data, etc...."

Clicked SuperSU, phone is rooted.

So, issue with Yank555 kernel perhaps? I haven't run it, but I'll give Boeffla a go. I honestly don't mind helping, if you need me to reflash, I'll do it as many times as you need.

Camera crashes

I have this issue on 1.7.6 (1.7.5+flashed latest changes from repo): camera crashes after taking a pic. Using Boeffla, tried to reinstall, etc.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustArchi:
Yup, probably ramdisk stuff. Always examine my Init and RunOnce log in case of such issues, as Init calls SU Daemon, which is required for su to work.

It won't help me mate, this is Samsung base. System restart can be caused by one of your app or sammy itself, in such case I can only suggest installing bloatware pack + selecting everything in aroma.

Please be more specific because I have no clue what you're refering to.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Boldizzle:
Running last stable (2.3.3) and I'm suddenly getting this weird bug where I'll set the brightness from lowest to highest then lock the phone (using the power button) and then switch it back on (using the home button or power button) the brightness will reset itself to what I had previously set before setting it to the highest setting so in this case, go back to the lowest setting.

After seeing this, I'll go into the brightness settings and it will still read as being set to max but is obviously showing a very dim setting.

Any ideas? Cheers

Hi all,

As a newby in the ROM world I thought: let's try this ROM as it looks great. The problem I have now is that after installation I keep getting the message "SET_METADATA_RECURSICE: SOME CHANGES FAILED". Does anyone know how this can be solved.

Hi Archi.

2 questions about AD 2.x

I am currently running 2.3.8 previously 2.3.3. In both roms i noticed that website links in my emails are unclickable if that makes sense. Wasnt an issue with your preomni roms. Now i have to highlight and copy and paste links into the browser

My last question refers to snapchat app. The video feature will not last the duration of time its supposed to. However i did notice that when i flashed the most recent 2.3.8 that snap chat worked perfect directly after the flash for a few minutes but then went back to its old ways.

Seems to hint that something is blocking it from using the vid feature properly.

Another question about the camera.

Upon using front camera video ( not snap chat related) the picture becomes very flattened horizontaly.

Is there a better camera app ?

Thanks.

There's always a possibility, but I highly doubt it. Flags are simple, either they work properly, or they don't. I doubt that they may cause camera errors after some time.

Disable low battery warning in the options.

1. The only thing which comes to my mind is the adblock, but this works from the boot. You can try to disable it in ArchiDroid app.

2. You can search for other camera apps, such as focal or photosphere, but I highly doubt that there will be a big difference.

Hey Archi, I'm using your rom ArchiDroid V1.7.11. It's a great rom and I love the battery life. I just have one problem. Whenever I launch instagram it keeps crashing 2-3 seconds after launch. Sometimes it would work but as soon as i'm done processing a picture it would crash again. I have cleared cache, wiped dalvik cache and re-installed the app. I'm using the rom on 240 DPi though. I tried changing instagram dpi too, I thought it might be because I'm using the AOSP theme so I flashed the rom again to stock theme but still no luck.

Hey Archi,

This is not specific to a particular version of Archidroid but right now i am on 1.7.11 .

using 2.3.8 since a few days now, updated from 2.3.7. Went smooth so far, but had now about three times the problem that device would not wake up. Had to hold power for reboot then.

Oh and uninstalled koushs mirror beta...

Lag and freezing issues sometimes may caused by using improper governor/cpu setting combos. For example when i use battery saving governors (both pegasusq or zzmov) with aftr-lpa and multicore power save cpu settings. Especially while i am using zram.

Lets try these settings;

Governor: zzmov insane or pegasusq standard

IO scheduler: zen or noop

Cpu settings: Idle-LPA / multicore power save off

Zram off

No undervolt cpu/gpu
