Does anyone know when the server will be completely up and running? No zips for d2lte. How long does server switching take?

Also, is anyone else having GPS issues? I can get an initial point but not tracking. Big problem for maps user and cyclist trying to track ride. Thanks

Try this

Try tightening the screws in the back of the phone. This seems to fix a lot of GPS issues.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] metalhead131:
It's not a hardware issue, no problems in stock ROM. I'll try anyway. Thanks

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
Hey guys, I'm trying to find the d2spr ROMs that have the SIM dependency removed, my purpose in asking is to see if I can do with it what the tmobile guys with the d2att with some rilblobs and some build prop edits, my device is the straight talk (vzw) s3, right now we have to use d2vzw and d2lte ROMs on straight talk but our devices are CDMA 3g and the d2vzw and d2lte are for verizon and require a SIM for 4g, these ROMs work fine as long as we use a SIM but its not like everybody has a SIM, thevonly SIM that gets everything working like its supposed to is specifically a verizon 4g SIM and dial *228 to program the SIM, these are not easy to come by so I'm wondering if we can get the d2spr ROMs that are SIM fixed with a few edits, thanks for any ideas or help guys
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] akira6968:
Well, shoot. I dont suppose anyone happens to still have a copy of this rom, or a DL link? CR doesn't host S3 (d2spr) builds anymore, anywhere, that I can find.

Where are the downloads to the nightlies?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] calisro:
Do you read? lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cbond007:
That's what I pay you for. JK, although the 2-3 build I've been on for a few days has been good to me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
Speaking of the nightlies, the server is back up and running, with a new build available for 2/9 after several terrible days of darkness!!

---------- Post added at 05:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:08 PM ----------

2/4 build and 2/9 build are worth it based on the changelogs, most of the other nightlies just have small changes/fixes.

Ya nope for me a no go . no physical link to press
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
Are you on the website using your phone or your computer? I'm on my computer, but several people using their phone have told me today that they were having the same issue.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kaos420:
Phone. Tried Chrome and stock browser. Even tried switch to desktop mode. I just want a link to the 9th build
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
Here it is on my Android File Host account if you want it, I uploaded a copy with no assert lines for the Virgin Mobile and Boost users earlier today.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kaos420:
I'm sprint I guess I'll wait till they fix it. Walking dead on soon. To much a hassle to turn laptop on now. Lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
This is the d2spr version; for users on VM and Boost we have to remove the asserts from any Sprint ROM and then it works for us as well. So flash away!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
Links for download should now be showing properly on the Carbon website when using a mobile device:

CM11 Camera bug

I just noticed on the CM11 thread that camera will crash completely if you go to video record mode and back to camera mode. I tested it on Carbon KK 2-09 build. We have the same bug. Yes, it was a completely clean install with everything wiped.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jglm4u:
I don't have that issue here
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] StuckinMemphis:
That's strange. Maybe my phone is an older version of GS3 than yours. You are on a Sprint SGS3 right? I'm sure this is not user error. I even formatted DATA. I use TWRP. Could that have something to do with it. I get the same issue on CM11.

What happened to the D2SPR nightlies? Nothing for the last three nights.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dcmasta:
I had this problem initially with the 02-05 build. Not sure if this fixed it but I wiped dalvik/cache, flashed 02-09 build again and then wiped again.

Haven't had the problem since.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
Looks like some carriers are getting more consistent nightlies than the d2spr, obviously not every carrier will have the build compile as easily. Fortunately however, there is a 2/12 build up for us, and the change log indicates that PIE is now included, along with some BlueTooth fixes!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] StuckinMemphis:
Very cool. That just showed up in the last hour.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
Anyone having camera issues, use this .apk file instead:

Vanir Camera2.apk

I extracted this from the 2/3/2014 build of Vanir ROM and then swapped out the one that came with Carbon ROM, in the zip file itself. Just drag and drop in the location system/app, choose "yes" to replace the existing camera2.apk file. Did a clean install of the latest Carbon nightly to test, had no freezes or crashes when switching every possible combo I could think of-front camera, rear camera, video. Took multiple pics and shot several seconds of video every time I switched, no problems. Hope this helps!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mholloway:
I came from the S2 or epic touch,flashing aosp rom then you needed an ics modem and gapps. I dont see nothen in theop ? Running moar rom now with MK3.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
Flashing GApps is S.O.P. for AOSP based ROM's. I like the Paranoid Android 0-Day GApps, link is in my signature line. Tons of other options available for GApps though, I also like the ones from [MENTION=2915683]BaNkS[/MENTION]. Your modem is up to you, that will stay until you change it, that is basically a matter of which one gives you the best signal/data in your area of the world.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mholloway:
Ok cool so I will download gapps from your signature line and iam good to go,glad theres no more changing modems for AOSP . Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
Also be aware, Carbon team recommends flashing the ROM and GApps in the same session before booting into system. My normal procedure is to do two separate sessions, while letting the ROM "settle" before flashing GApps, but the initial setup on Carbon involves getting your Google stuff set up as well, so I follow their recommendation when flashing Carbon. Please see my post a few back as well about how to replace the camera .apk file so that you have a working camera. And finally, if you aren't using it, I strongly recommend using Philz Touch recovery, link for that is also in my signature line. Feel free to PM me or post with any other questions/concerns!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mholloway:
Thank you sir I appreciate all your help,
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mholloway:
2 more questions iam assuming to go back to TW I just flash my back up? And will installing carbon change my kernel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
Yes and yes. Every ROM contains a kernel, it is like the engine in a car-nothing will happen without it. You won't want to go back to TW once you try Carbon though! You can also flash custom kernels if you want. The one that comes with Carbon is very nice, but the dkp kernel from [MENTION=4932679]decimalman[/MENTION] is awesome!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mholloway:
Ok . Checking out dkp kernels I guess install the newest spdr newest.

Thanks again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
He actually just switched file hosts, so if you go off the OP in the dkp thread, you won't get the most recent build from a couple of days ago. Use the link from this specific post:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] thornside:
Is LTE/4G working in this? It's not for me so I wanted to know I made a mistake somewhere.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Kuroiyatsu:
Every time I to install this ROM with TWRP I get an "assert error". This happens with the nightlies as well as the Jellybean.

Anyone else get this error? I even looked online and tried to delete the first statement in the Script file.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
Give Philz Touch recovery a try instead, it is the best one for flashing KitKat ROMs.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MBCO:
I updated TWRP to the latest version and had zero issues flashing this. Just a FYI.

Data & LTE works great for me. On MK3 as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] StuckinMemphis:
I continued having the same issue even with this camera. It has been fixed upstream in CM11. The 2-13 build of CM11 has fixed it for me. I'm sure that will probably make its way into Carbon soon. There must be some slight internal differences between our phones for some of us to have that issue and others not.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] calisro:
odd. Mine works. i'vedirty flashed all nightlies.

Sick ROM. Everything is working great. LTE and Bluetooth. Thanks Carbon.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Kuroiyatsu:
I will give Philz a go. Any particular version you recommend?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
New build actually released today. Link for the Philz thread is in my signature line, go to the last page of that thread for the download link.

Edit: download link is in OP, not on last page, sorry. Was thinking about the thread for dkp kernel!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Kuroiyatsu:
I just installed Philz and I get the same message.

assert failed: getprop("ro.bootloader") == "710VPBLJ7" etc....

I just don't get it. Hmmm. I can flash SlimKat, but not this one. This is the one I want the most.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
Are you on Sprint or one of the carriers that piggybacks off Sprint, like Virgin Mobile or Boost? Also, do you know which bootloader you have? That is what is giving you an assert failure, is a bootloader mismatch.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Kuroiyatsu:
I'm on Sprint. For the bootloader I have PhilZ Touch 6. Clockworkmod v6.0.4.7

I tried some other ROMs, and I'm having the same assert failure with all of them but SlimKat.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wetbiker7:
Just go in the updater-script of the ROM and remove all the asserts.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wyelkins:
Yep. I have Boost. SlimKat does not have the script assert that causes the status 7 error.

On other Roms you will have to load the updater script from the zip into an editor like Notepad++ and remove the asserts at the top.

If you have VM or Boost, reply and we can send you a link to a video that shows how to do it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Kuroiyatsu:
You are talking about removing the script up until the first semicolon right? Just before "mount"?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wyelkins:
Yep
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wetbiker7:
Here's a video on how to remove the asserts.

http://s1166.photobucket.com/user/w...ertsFomtheUpdater-Script_zps2865abb3.mp4.html
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Kuroiyatsu:
I followed the video, and now I get a (Status 6) error on the ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wyelkins:
Never got that. Unless you deleted too much. You do have to remove any blank lines at the top.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wetbiker7:
Wy is correct. The top line cannot be blank. You have to move line 2 up to line 1.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Kuroiyatsu:

---------- Post added at 06:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:42 AM ----------

Your file started with the "mount" too, but it worked! jeesh. I was able to install. So much for this Comp Sci degree. Hahaha.

Thank you all so much. I've been having random reboots with every ROM I have tried. I remember Carbon being the most stable ROM. I figured if I have carbon and I still get the same issues, it may be hardware related. Not sure. Thanks again for all of the help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wetbiker7:
WoooHooo!!! Got it working now!!! Now you need to flash this new AOSP DKP kernel. Make sure that you wipe cache and Dalvik cache before flashing it. :good:

You're welcome. That's what it's all about bro, helping each other out. :)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Kuroiyatsu:
Everything is working excellent so far.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wetbiker7:
Excellent. Now what you need to do is make a copy of the ROM, put it in a spare folder and open the updater-script. See how it looks when the asserts have been removed correctly. That way you will know what it's supposed to look like the next time you need to remove the asserts and you will be able to do it yourself. :good:

You can use that video tutorial I posted earlier to help you out.

Anyone having trouble with the hotspot?

Wifi Tether Router by Fabio Grasso on play store will fix the hotspot. It cost right at $2 but we'll worth the price.

I saw something mentioned on the G+ page about them merging all the d2 devices together. Is this why we're not seeing any new builds?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] StuckinMemphis:
I ran the 2-16 d2lte build on my Sprint GS3 for the day yesterday. I was having too many random reboots. So I have left it for now. Other than the reboots it was very good.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wyelkins:
Just flashed the new d2lte build. Tried it dirty and clean, same result.

The blue notification light that normally goes off during boot, stays on.

Any ideas?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] StuckinMemphis:
I got that and the error "process Android has failed" constantly. If you can just stick it out until it completes the initial setup and reboot, they both went away for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr._Happy:
Anybody dare to try 02-18 d2lte?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] upconvert:
Just plug it into a charger, wait a moment, unplug. The light should turn off.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] StuckinMemphis:
2-18 d2lte

Just flashed d2lte 2-18 on Sprint GS3. Not getting reboots this time so far. Just a heads up for anyone else who flashes. I get a constant error that reappears as soon as I dismiss it "com.android.phone has stopped working" while in the initial setup. As soon as I reboot from the initial setup that error does not happen again. So far so good. I'll see how it goes throughout the day.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] upconvert:
2/18 is working fine for me. I didn't get that error. Also LTE is working. I dirty flashed over 2/16.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
I dirty flashed the 2/16 nightly with no issues besides the blue light showing up a couple of times. About to dirty flash the 2/18, so will see what happens; thanks for the heads-up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ssmercurys:
Same for me. Ran 2/16 with newest DKP kernel yesterday, no issues.

Dirty flashed to 2/18 this morning. Running fine so far. No issues to report here so far.

Thanks for the great ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cbond007:
I don't see a 2/18 build. Where is it?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wyelkins:
Look for d2lte not d2spr
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cbond007:
Nm
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ssmercurys:
Not sure if its due to d2lte merge or not but I noticed I had solid LTE all day with my phone until I rebooted.

Since then I have not been able to get LTE back at all.

Already tried to re-activate/flash TW and update PRL/Profile. This works and gets me LTE back.

Once I reflash again, LTE is good on the ROM until a reboot and then its gone again permanently until I either reflash or restore to TW.

I don't think this is a Carbon issue though as it seems all the d2lte builds are having the same issue for those having it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gunfromsako:
I have the same issue with liquid. And I don't think it can be easily solved. I had to Odin back to md4 twice last night to get 4g back, and I was hoping it was just an issue with liquid smooth. However I believe the phone.apk is writing something to the NAM or EFS partition that is seriously screwing our phones. If you download signal check lite it will show that you can connect to evdo only. No eHRPD/LTE. This is a major issue with all "merged" roms apparently. So we need to find a fix asap!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ssmercurys:
Agreed, I noticed that I also was only able to connect to evdo Rev. A only no matter how many toggles.

I did not have to Odin back to MD4 though, I just flashed CNexus's 4.3 Stock Odex rom and ran the activate + update PRL/profile and that fixed it for me.

Either way, something is not right with the merge yet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gunfromsako:
Agreed, flashing back to tw fixed it for me once but after that I couldn't get LTE at all. So I just flashed slim d2spr and all is well, LTE persist through reboot and I'm so happy my phone isn't screwed. My evo LTE had the same issue and no matter what I did I could only get it to connect to LTE if I forced it into LTE only mode. So I bought a s3...lol. I thought I was about to go through the same nightmare that I went through with that damn phone....woo saaa

[MENTION=5197177]CarbonDev[/MENTION] would you be so kind as to look into this? I believe it has something to do with the phone.apk.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CarbonROM:
Have you tried clean flashing it as well?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gunfromsako:
Yes, I have even tried multiple unified builds all yield the same result. People in hangouts with me have reproduced this as well. I've decompiled telephony-common.jar as well as dialer.apk and there are tons of changes which I would assume there would be. I'm on slim d2spr at the moment and I'm having zero issues. Its only d2lte builds that are troublesome.

Snippet from slim thread I shouldn't of even posted there as they are not unified

This may be an upstream issue which is out of your control but I believe its relevant.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shekinahsmoke:
thank you for checking on this. It's really a positive that you care enough to go so far as to post and not ignore us. :good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gunfromsako:
My thoughts exactly while it may be out of his hands I do appreciate it. It seems to only affect d2spr users as my buddy has a d2vzw version and is not affected. It probably has to do with the fact sprint integrates its LTE sim and is not removable. Verizon you can actually remove your LTE sim card. LTE is a gsm technology so believe it or not we have a sim card in a manner of speaking.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wyelkins:
I bootlooped on 0219. I could not get LTE on 0218. I finally restored a TW backup and then restored the d2lte nightly backup. Got LTE again.

Not sure if I will have no repeat this on the next nightly. Might wait for them to fix it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gunfromsako:
Does your lte persist through reboot? Please do test.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wyelkins:
Yes. The TW ROM brought LTE back and it has stayed after restoring 0218.

---------- Post added at 09:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:25 PM ----------

It acts normally after a reboot. It will connect LTE, then go to eHRPD and finally to CDMA depending upon the signal. I may have to toggle 3g or LTE or Airplane mode to give it a nudge.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gunfromsako:
So you just now rebooted to test? It always stuck for me after a tw install but if I reboot in carbon is when it would disappear for me and others. Just wanna clear a few thing up, also which nightly are you on?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wyelkins:
Yes. I just rebooted. After I restored TW, the first backup I restored was of the last d2spr build. LTE persisted. It would not work before that after flashing d2lte.

Then I restored a backup of 0218 d2lte and LTE persisted still. I have rebooted several times.

I am on Boost which is d2spr. Running MK3. Currently running the 0218 d2lte Carbon build.

LTE works now.

---------- Post added at 09:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:54 PM ----------

Are you getting eHRPD 3g? Or is it only Evdo 3g?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gunfromsako:
Thanks I'm going to test the 2 18 build maybe something was fixed up steam.

I was only getting evdo rev A. It would not connect to eHRPD or LTE for that matter.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CarbonROM:
Yeah most likely it is something from CM causing the issues. We;ll just have to go along on this journey together. Who knows what it may hold? :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr._Happy:
So, in order to maintain LTE after flashing the Nightly it's necessary to re-flash back to TW and the flash back to 2-18?

Is there anything one has to do while in TW, or does this just help to correct it?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wyelkins:
I flashed the d2lte nightly.

Then I did a nandroid backup.

Did a clean wipe.

Restored a TW backup.

Did a clean wipe.

Restored the d2lte backup.

In truth, the first restore I did after TW was to the last d2spr backup.

Then I did a full wipe

Then I restored d2lte

But, I don't think that the d2spr restore was necessary.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gunfromsako:
Please by all means just try to flash the d2lte and see if LTE persists through reboot. I don't have a copy of a carbon d2spr build but maybe I'll dig a little. I've been messing with for 2 days and no matter what I do I cannot get LTE to connect after the second reboot. But the more people we have test the more cm may pay attention to us spr users.

If I was a n00b and hadn't been around forever I would chock this up to user error. Unfortunately I am no n00b ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Russ0000:
You said you have been trying for 2days to fix LTE and haven't. Don't you think CM is trying to fix it. It was a lot of work for me to get LTE back as well but don't tell people to break it on purpose. Just be patient and wait it out. It will get fixed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gunfromsako:
My LTE is fine, as long as I don't use a d2lte build. Its working right now on a d2spr build so maybe you need to read more than 1 post. The only "work" it took me to restore LTE was flashing back to TW, it was never broke officially and it took literally 20 minutes to fix. If it took you longer I'm sorry, I'm not telling anyone to break anything just test to see if it works or if this bug is device specific. Im just suggesting to people to give it one try to see if it works for them. Im not telling anyone that they have to, just merely suggesting, so please don't tell me what to do.

K?

Thx
