[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adrole:
Hello and firstly thank you for this ROM, so far is it looking very impressive for me after a few days use.

I am a relative basic users this is my first ROM for the SGS3 and I only used ROMS a bit on my old phone a year or so ago, just so you know my knowledge level roughly.

I have two questions one I am sure has been asked many times before but I would like to know what "Known Issues" there are with this ROM I assume you meant that they are the same as the base Cyanogenmod 12.1 but this was not clear, plus I am out of the loop and do not know what these issues are.

Secondly I backed up my old Data before installing of course but I want to use some game save files.....I located these and pasted them to my Android/data folder app specific folders where they should be but one game just ignores it and another game shows the save file ingame but fails to load it (starting a new save works for both games). I also tried copying all of the backup games files into my new install but this did not work either.....I did however test this process before installing a ROM (as In while stock I cleared all game data and reinstalled the game then added just the old save file which worked) so is there a reason it does not work on the ROM or is it unexplained bad luck? Also of course would there be a fix for such a problem?

Anyway regardless I am very pleased with this ROM so far, I can live without game saves even if I did spend far too many hours on them.

init file

Hi,

I have Archidroid 3.1 installed on Samsung s3 and I found the init.rc file in the directory /data/local/tmp. I would like to know if this is okay or is it part of malware that can be deleted.

Sandip.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zlatan13:
Archi said don't restore backups cos they can cause problems... And your save game files were probably made on 4.4.4 and you switched to 5.1 so game does not recognize it.

Great rom, but I can not get it to run reliably on my phone. Running 3.1.2.

I am getting many soft-reboots during the more "intense" moments such as downloads, backup-processes and copying big files, google maps works fine until I turn own navigation, then it lags a lot, whenever I get called the phone becomes super laggy and I can barely take the call.

I used CatLog to "save logs" just after another reboot. Maybe they will help.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DMCrimson78:
Try clean flashing either stable 3.1.3 or experimental 3.1.4. I've had just one soft boot since my hassle last friday, which led me to forcibly clean install 3.1.3.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Behemoth1702:
Thanks, but I did a clean install (used a wipe script to delete all data).

I am trying another ROM now, maybe it works better for me.

hey, I had tethering issue with 3.1.2 and now 3.1.3 AD. I can start Wifi hotspot or USB tethering, It works, but right after when I start Mobile Data, both tethering and hotspot shut down and they keep restarting till I restart the device. Any clues what could cause these tethering problems, since it worked on 4.4.4 AD android?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MakotoY:
Hi developer, I have installed ArchiDroid 3.1.3 for about 2 weeks. I really enjoy the ROM. It is much faster and smoother than the official ROM. And Android 5.1 is much better than Android 4.x. I feel like I have got a new phone with this ROM.

However, I have encountered some problems with the ROM. First, the phone gets automatically rebooted sometimes even I have done nothing to it. It is more often that the phone gets rebooted when I received a phone call. The reboot issue happens one to two times per day and is really annoying.

Second, the voice quality of the calling party is not good for the first phone call I received after I boot up the phone. The calling party's voice would be a bit weird and unclear.

Third, the stock camera crushed sometimes. I have to reboot the phone in order to get it working again. I have heard that pressing the Back button instead of the Home button helps to avoid the problem. I am trying out on that.

The last two problems are not big deals indeed but the first problem is really annoying, making me miss some important phone call. I would really appreciate if you could help me to resolve it.

problem with update

Hi, I am tring to instal 3.1.4 using Archidroid app but I cannot download the file. I change to i9300-cm-experimental, choose "direct (recommended)" and the app start download the file showing percentage. With file manager I see the file in folder ArchiDroid/tmp growing and the free space in memory decreasing but at the end of the download the file disappear and the free space remain the same as before starting download. Someone has the same problem?

taken from [MENTION=5462364]konohanz[/MENTION] ... Thanks ￼

I copied this from another thread. This is on archis github.

ArchiDroid 3.1.4 Experimental

How to flash :

1. Click on Download Zip button located in lower-right corner of the screen. The AD 3.1.4 is roughly about 794 MB.

2. Extract the downloaded zip file to a new renamed folder eg.: Archidroid-3.1.4-Experimental

3. Select the newly created ArchiDroid-3.1.4-EXPERIMENTAL folder

4. Create a new zip file with name Archidroid-3.1.4-Experimental by selecting all files from the extracted folder.

5. Make sure that you have zip format, you cannot use the downloaded file with its current compression as it will show a ERROR notification when you try to flash it.

6. Copy newly created ArchiDroid-3.1.4-EXPERIMENTAL.zip to your phone and flash as usual (full wipe suggested)

PROBLEMS::

1. If you encounter Force Close in the Synapse, update from Play Store will fix the problem.

HI guys!

I am pretty much new into custom ROMs. I want a stable and fast ROM. As far as I understood I should choose v1 instead of v2. What about v3? But CM 12.1?

Thanks! I hope I posted in the right topic.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I am using Archidroid latest experimental 3.1.4 and, I love this rom, everything excellent, apart from one minor thing. Modern combat 5 lags way too much.

I am using default kernel settings that came with rom, not using custom kernel. Tried ramping up GPU clock, but no difference. On Archi jelly/KitKat ROMs, much better game play. I used to think this was bad game optimising, however, on my crappy xperia e4g, full graphics, butter smooth.

Any tips for how to get this game to run well on latest Archi rom?

By the way, tried also, gltools without much luck.

Which kernel do i get when i install archidroid 3.1.3? If it's stock can i flash archikernel right away or i need to flash stock rom, then archidroid and after that archikernel. Thank you.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zlatan13:
You get Archi kernel 1.7.2 and with AD 3.1.4 you get Archi kernel v2.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xvivo:
thanks

I came from Archidroid 3.0.2 which i was using as a daily driver.

Clean flashed 3.1.3 stable and used most of the pre-chosen settings when installing (archikernel).

I also changed to zzmove governor and cancelled the overclocking (1.6 ->1.4) in synapse.

Only greenified one app (instagram) after checking with wakelock.

Using a dark theme and night mode only when the environment is actually dark I enjoy almost double the battery time than before and no bugs!

Thank you Archie!!!!

I am sharing this because people only write their questions and as one reads the threads one may thing the Rom is buggy. That is not the case. Excellent work!

Also, clean flashing does not mean that you have to sacrifice anything. Just that you need to work a little.

Backup everything with titanium backup just in case you need to fall back to your older rom and your files (photos, mp3, videos) etc with usb or wifi (share-it is one easy app that has an option to choose everything (internal storage and SD) if you are lazy like me)

Sync your contacts to your gmail (take care to move those stored in phone-only as well).

I use Google keep for my notes and Gtasks for my tasks, so these are backed up automatically

SMSbackup+ to backup your sms, mms and call log to your gmail.

You may also use google photos as an alternative for photo backup.

Flash and restore everything back from the cloud. There may also be other options, ever easier ones, but that was my way. Just sharing as some may find it useful.

I am far from an experienced user but I have never experienced bricked devices or other serious problems. Research and follow the instructions.

I'm loving the live display, set night mode to the lowest figure possible and I really love it. Beats any night filter app I installed. It's red background not dark yet not straining my eyes. So great I'm wondering how I can set it for my sony ultra z on official software.

I'm currently on v3.1 and awaiting for 3.1.4 everyone is raving about.

I have occasional no Sim detected upon powering off, but the main issue I'm facing is camera tends to get frozen too often and phone gets impossibly hot on mobile data. I read these issues are solved on v3.1.4. Can anyone confirm?

AD 3.1.4 28/09/15 Build - Camera Error

Hi. I'm unable to post in the dev thread (perils of being a new member, eh!?) but would like to point out that the Camera is NOT functioning correctly for me (using the Google camera, at least). It worked once, then after a reboot it no longer works and I get "can't connect to the camera.

Is there a workaround? Thanks.

Hello everybody,

I have 2 questions:

1. Where do I find option to show only Contacts with phone number (I don't need those Contacts with only email address)?

2. Why do i get such a "glitch": I receive all calls neatly, but when I redial some contacts Dialer shows me "Uknown" (see printscreen). I am sure I'm calling not Uknown, but a person who I have just spoken with and whose in my contacts (all my contacts are synced from Gmail or MS Exchange).

Now I'm on AD 3.1.4 Exp with AK 3.0.31, but 2. problem was on previous builds. And I did a clean flash.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sashankps:
OK, If the camera is working after a reboot and then showing "Can't connect to camera" Then install "MEDIASERVER KILL" app from the play store. Set it to kill on screen unlock and you should have the camera overtime you turn your screen on.

If the camera isn't working even after a reboot, try changing your kernel. If you're on stock It will work. I've used archidroid and it worked flawlessly.

Hope it helped and it gets resolved soon. Reply back if you hit a dead end again:cool:

Alright, so I installed Archidroid on my S3 but I've got a few problems:

1. During the first set up (google acc) there were graphical glitches. Not a big deal, just reporting.

2. Synapse is always displaying Boot Settings Cancelled everytime I reboot the device. A bit of a problem.

3. My battery was 12% and when I plugged the device into the charger it was saying 60%. A big problem.

Any ideas?

EDIT Also Better Battery Stats dont work, I get a lot of error messages. Also other apps are misbehaving and showing errors. I am suffering batter drain. I am using Archidroid 3.1.3.

EDIT 2

After updating Archidroid and messing up with the apps it looks like it works fine. If anything happens I'll be back. Very cool ROM tho, and really fast.

Charging problems

Hello ,first i wanted to say that nice work from archie with the archidroid rom v3.14 stable . My problem is that the s3 of my gf charges slow . It had a cm11 rom before and i flashed archidroid in hope of a software problem . I did a clean and fresh install and updated the twrp recovery first ... i set in synapse the governor as zzam battery to save her more battery and the battery time seems to be really good although it is a bit slow because of the governor . The main problem i have and why i did the rom change is to fix the charging problem . I read in synapse that the charging rate was 999 mah so i assumed there are no problem with charger cable or microusb port . I wanted to ask if changing the kernel to boeffla would fix my problem ? ( now with good charger and all says it need more than 2 hours to charge from 50% to full) .... And if a change of kernel would fix my problem can i just flash boeffla over the rom . ( i mean just flash without doing any wipes or another rom flashing ?? ) Thnx in advance pls help me fix it .

Loses around 2% per hour .... I dont think thats normal and powermanagerservice lock has waked the kernel for 2 min ... and now that i used it only to try and find how to get a battery log from bbs went down to 94% ( the battery was alot better last night after i had flashed ... and then overnight 8-9 hours it drained 8-10% which i think its more than it should ) ... Please tell me if it is safe to just flash another kernel like boeffla and would it fix this problem ?
