[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Camron708:
The phone is hooked up with a car charger and never drops below 80-90% battery life. The same thing happens if I use the phone just for GPS access.

I installed the new kernel and I will update in a few weeks if it fixes the problem or not.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
Your device doesn't overheat in that situation? I swear, I could cook an egg on mine while plugged in and playing Ingress. Thermal throttling usually kicks in too at that point. :(

Has anyone flashed 07/01 successfully? I flashed the 29 nightly and it didn't boot.

Any major issues to speak of?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
No obvious issue on my end.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sugarkryptonite:
Boo thanks. I clean flashed 07/01 nightly and I'm still getting stuttery animations...SO frustrating. In an app, hit home screen button, try swiping to a home screen on the left and the transition lags. Going to the right is perfectly fine...it's so strange!

Sent from my S3
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
I only use 1 homescreen as stated before, so I don't get any of this. :p

However I tried creating 2 more homescreens putting some icons and opening an app, pressing home, then moving either left or right and I get a very faint stutter almost hard to notice. Mind this is in Nova, not Trebuchet launcher. It doesn't seem to be worse left than right. Might be because of a widget you have?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sugarkryptonite:
Thanks for testing it out.

I thought so too...I have 5 widgets on that page so maybe that's causing it....didn't do it on earlier nightlies in May though

Sent from my S3

EDIT: I removed a bunch of widgets and it seems to have dissipated for now...potentially the "Torch" widget.

Issues that I face.

I have installed the Latest July1 Nightly and have the following problems:

1. Camera flash not working

2. Once Photo is clicked through Quick Settings Camera Shortcut then sound from the device either through headphone or speakers is stopped. Reboot is needed to fix this.

Please tell me whether there is any fix for these issues. Also, when M8 releases, do I have to clean flash it or will I be able to do an OTA update with all apps and data intact.

Thanks in advance.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Fallon:
After having what appears to be overheating related problems for the past 3+ months (sometime after I left CM10 for CM11) & probably a half dozen different CM11 versions (currently milestone 7 I think). I decided to go back to stock, at least to test things out. Last Night I flashed UCUFNE4_4.4.2. So far I've rooted it, Xposed & thrown a few apps on.

Google maps in navigation mode has been running for the past 15-20 minutes with at least half of it charging & I haven't seen it spike beyond the high 130's & mostly stay in the low 120s. Compare that with CM11 & I was getting 130-140+ just charging or GPSing, at which point thermal throttling killed performance & sometimes crashing. Doing both usually hit 160+ and would crash within about 10-15 min.

I definitely miss CM features, but need to get this thermal issue with CM sorted out before my phone is really usable with it again. Are others seeing the same issues?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
Other people have noticed the exact same issue with the gps. Doing other things seems fine though.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
Yes!! Although, I've also had good results with Quantum kernel (and a couple others) + CM11/PA. But nothing seems to handle the device as well as Touchwiz. Even though it's ugly and bloated.... lol

Having the same issues as well, it is really getting old having gone through several M builds with no improvement. Switched to kt kernel and it is a tiny bit better, but still can't charge while I'm streaming Bluetooth with navigation on.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xArtanis:
Is the latest M7 snapshot actually stable and usable as a daily driver? I've been on M6 for the longest time because I'm too hesitant to update to a messy nightly.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
Got used to disable it with every boot. Could have automated it, was too lazy. :P
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PiperD:
Since going to KT kernel a week ago I haven't had nearly the same frequency or severity of performance issues I was having with the CM kernel. I routinely run the phone on external power in the car with GPS active (Google Maps) while streaming audio over LTE and Bluetooth; or I'll stream Youtube/Plex over LTE and Bluetooth, again with no issue. It wasn't always like this in the 1.5 months prior.

I'm now fairly certain that the last CM kernel that worked for me was in M3 d2att. After that I went to M6 d2lte and that's when the problems started. Never tried any nightlies in between those releases or since M7.

I'll see what happens with M8. And I still think I've got bad blocks in /data but I don't know how to fix that.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] StunGod:
Same here. With the stock M7 (and M6, for that matter) kernel, the phone was just unusable. Just browsing the web while listening to music was enough to trigger throttling. The KT kernel totally changes the experience. I haven't had a thermal throttling problem at all since installing it. And the responsiveness is way better than anything I'd been getting without it.

On the other hand, I'm getting some random reboots that are a bit frustrating, but that's not appropriate for discussion in this thread. But even the occasional reboot is more tolerable than the alternative.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Fallon:
I made the jump to CM11 from 10 maybe around M3... It was early this year sometime I think, but CM11 had been out for a little while. I don't think I've ever gotten acceptable GPS performance on CM11, or at least not over 15-20 min or so. My phone has been getting steadily worse over the past few milestones with thermal throttling & what not during normal use. It was sad to realize I haven't been able to count on my phone for much other than calls & some quick E-mail. Anything beyond that for the past few nightlies (even after a factory reset) just got to laggy to use.

Going back to stock has been a breath of fresh air in that I'm usually seeing temps under 100 when I start using it & rarely over 130. I did see it into the 160's while GPSing & charging on the dash in the direct sun in 90+ degree weather the other day, but it didn't lag out at all when doing it. Generally I'd say it's at least 10 degrees cooler with stock than any of the recent CM11 nightlies. The stock OS sucks with TouchWiz compared to CM, but the poor performance with temp (and resulting stability, lag & battery issues) just makes on the wrong side of usable for the moment.

I've never been motivated to mess with a kernel other than stock (stock TouchWiz or stock CM), but might if they don't have overheating & stability issues when I can take stock TouchWiz anymore.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] StunGod:
I get that, and generally have felt the same way. Personally,I just can't make myself go back to TW. I just hate it. I haven't messed with alternate kernels much on my S3, but used to do it a lot with my captivate.

It's really worth giving it a shot. The KT kernel is very mature and might make you stop considering the stock Rom. It did for me.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
To counter this point (nothing against [MENTION=4325945]ktoonsez[/MENTION] kernel!), I've had serious issues with KT kernel on any ROM I've tried it with. Maybe my specific CPU can't run with those specific settings, not sure, but I've never successfully run KT kernel for more than 5 minutes before a random reboot.

I've had no issues with Quantum kernel though!

Unlocking SIM

Apologies for this newb question. Can anyone point me to how to unlock my SIM if I didn't do this while in stock? I've tried dialing *#197328640# but that gives me "invalid mmi code".

I'm on latest nightlies with:

I747UCUEMJB baseband

I747UCDMG2 bootloader

I suppose I might need to flash back to a stock derivative? Is there a "boot-once to stock, then revert" ROM for S3?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
You can't unlock from a non-stock rom. The MMI code won't work.

You can make a nandroid backup of your current setup, flash a 4.1.2 based ROM, unlock your phone (and test it!) then restore your CM11 backup. Wipe before flashing TW obviously.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pmgnet:
I can't seem to get any stock based 4.3 or 4.1 ROM to work. Each is showing "Rat_Free_Supporting ON" instead of the option to unlock. I understand a 4.1 ROM is required.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2116346

Anyone have any suggestions for a known, best stock rom to unlock SIM? I have tried Hyperdrive(4.1.2), dandroid(4.3), AT&T UCMG2 (4.1)

I'm attempting to unlock an AT&T S3 phone with an AT&T SIM within the US.

The fact that the UCMG2 derivative didn't work is concerning. Maybe I just need to call AT&T and ask for an unlock code? That might have saved me a couple of hours!

The AOSP browser is affected, Javelin is affected, but Chrome and Chrome Beta are not, so I'm thinking it has to be a Chromium/WebView type of thing, right?

Yeah the same thing happened to me not sure when it started but I found that the sound search widget didn't like being a widget anymore. After a bit of poking and prodding I found that Google Now had absorbed the powers of the sound search widget at some point and took over its body. It now feeds off the corpse of the "sound search for google play" app and requires it to sustain itself. If you would like to harness the power of the sound search just say the ok google hotword then say "what song is this" and it will start listening for music. If/when it finds a match it will tell you the song name and artist just like the sound search used to.

I had a similar issue but mine has been resolved a long time ago. I did a bug report to chromium and it should have been resolved for everyone.

Here is a link: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=341598

It turned out that the early iterations of our CPU (specifically revision 0) has a bug where it cannot do neon code correctly. You can check what CPU you have by going to terminal and typing in

cat /proc/cpuinfo
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Cryptecks:
Well, my Evita is NEON-capable and its chip is Rev 0, so I think you may be right.

I've pointed the CM guy assigned to the bug tracker issue to that link, so they can see about incorporating the patch into their OpenSSL repo. The issue you linked to is for Chrome Beta (that and Chrome don't have this issue, so you're right, it's fixed for Chrome), but if the ROM repos don't have the same fix, the AOSP Browser and other WebView stuff that uses the Android Chromium won't be working, showing the error we're all seeing.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pmgnet:
Oh, I agree completely. It was the latest build avail then, coincidentally.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sgloki77:
just confirmed my device is Rev 0 too, so it seems until CM patch the bug we are going to have to roll with chrome/chrome beta...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Cryptecks:
I know it seems silly, but if you guys could go to the CM Jira and "Vote on" this issue, it will help at least a little bit with getting it noticed and fixed faster. We have someone assigned to the issue, and I've provided info, links, and a logcat, so we just need it to get worked around to. Thanks S3 guys!!
