[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boeder9:
OK I reflashed factory, got stuck at the booting "X" so I installed CWM anyway via fastboot, attempted to restore the nandroid and it gave the same error at /system.

Now, I reflashed factory again, got stuck at X but this time I used stock recovery to erase the data. I will try the nandroid backup later tonight - though I do feel transferring them from /data/media/cwm/backups to sd then to the PC has corrupted them somehow but then where and how do I transfer/keep the enormous backups?

Meanwhile, is there anyway to extract data from the nandroid - individual stuff for example, app data etc.??

Thank god I have adb backups, for apps and full (without system apps). I also have older nandroids and backups of the SD..
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boeder9:
After reverting to factory, none of my nandroid backups (3 from Feb) are restored completely.

For all 3, I get: "Error while restoring /data" as system is restored fine. Same problem with all 3 nandroids.

I would appreciate some help here. And again, is there a way to extract data from these nandroids?

Please help!

*****THIS HAS BEEN POSTED ON SEVERAL FORUMS*****

I got a text message on my phone today from Cricket. It told me Cricket and AIO have or are currently in the process of merging and gave me a link in the text for more info regarding what will happen and change during this transition.

Site: http://merger-info.aiowireless.com/

check it out for yourself. It gives less than ANY info. It does say though, that Cricket users will be required to buy a new device at some point when the merge is completed to continue to recieve service.

I bought my Samsung galaxy s3 from Cricket in early December.

It is 4g LTE compatible and uses a sim card, even though it says clearly throughout the Cricket site that they use CDMA devices.

Does this mean it can still be used after the merge, or will I STILL need to buy a new device? I believe it is a gsm compatible device.

I will include a picture of my phone, with the back cover showing it is a Cricket phone that has a sim card slot. That actually has a sim card in it.

Who else has Cricket or AIO? What are your thoughts on this merge?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Edgar J.:
Hello I have the Galaxy S II from T-Mobile T989 (I cant find the correct forum) my Google Play Store always is stuck on loading... I've been using over Wi-Fi but I think on 4G does the same thing. I've been able to access it buy deleting cache and data, also by uninstalled store application update, but still after i use it and close it then it get stuck again, I have to always clean cache/data to access it, is there anything I can do to permanently fix this problem?

This is the support thread for CM11 on the AT&T Galaxy S3. It's a major work in progress. It may cause all the things in the disclaimer to happen, or steal your girlfriend while you are busy flashing ROMs.

Known issues:

Recording video can sometimes result in strange things happening. This includes random reboots or discoloration of the video stream.

Install instructions:

1. Install TWRP Recovery for "d2att".

2. Download your correct; updated bootloader/modem from here, and here.

3. Get the nightly build here.

4. Reboot into recovery and install both.

d2lte is all inclusive. It works with all of the phones listed here.

Google Apps are not included in this ROM. You'll need to find those yourself if you want them. (Or just follow the link below.)

I prefer this.

Follow the changelog!

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Aqua1ung:
Awesome. Thanks for the new thread. Questions:

For someone coming from CM10 or earlier, is there a special bootloader that one needs to flash prior to flashing CM11?

Has there been an "M" release for d2lte?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RJQXCV:
Updated OP with information regarding updating of bootloader/modem.

d2lte is all inclusive. It works with all of the phones listed here.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeXyStEpH87:
Will it still work on cwm recovery or do we have to have twrp?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RJQXCV:
It will still work with CWM, but TWRP was recently updated to support some more aspects of KitKat, and it's what I use personally, and since I can confirm it works, I wanted to list it as my recommended recovery.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GlassRaven:
Any compatible kernels with the nightlies? I tried KT747 (3/9/14) and BMS (3/5/14) and they don't seem to work as the com.phone.application stops responding after a reboot from installing the kernel. In particular, I want to know why BMS doesn't work with CM11 because it's based on the same CM kernel and they even have the same Linux kernel (3.4.x) so what went wrong? What makes BMS kernel incompatible with the CM11 ROM? I'm currently using a d2lte build on an SGH-i747M.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] UnhoIy:
Have you tried the Quantum Kernel?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RJQXCV:
Make sure you're using the latest d2lte nightly. I had the same issue a while ago. Apparently it had something to do with a ramdisk update.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GlassRaven:
So after the 3-12-14 the incompatibility goes away? I haven't read the logs yet about the ramdisk update.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] johnhazelwood:
Not sure if you installed the Google Dialer, but that will cause issues with the latest CM builds, so it may not be kernel related but I'm guessing without more info. Check your System/add-on directory and see if you have a Google dialer entry. If yes, in the FAQ it walks you through the steps to take to clear out the dialer, which is basically wipe system, install ROM, install gapps, wipe caches, good to go.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GlassRaven:
There's only the com.android. dialer entry that I've found so far. I've read the procedure that you suggested but I think that's the same thing as installing a new ROM and pushing out the GApps package again which might've included the Google dialer. AFAIK, CM intertwined the Dialer app with the Phone one so removing the Dialer one might not seem ideal..
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] johnhazelwood:
To confirm it's in the add on folder, not the system folder. Meaning you shouldn't have a googledialer file in the add on folder.

I'm all for random April Fools jokes, but this one seems a bit "off". I mean, it's funny and all, but imagine the kinds of important calls people receive in a day, and the number of those calls that could easily be missed because the ringtone was too short/quiet/unexpected. Next year, play with system colors guys, not notification sounds.

I have a strange problem, running latest CM11 d2lte nightly

When connected to WiFi my cellular network will get disconnected every few minutes for a few seconds.

It is not the cellular reception in this area, as if I turn of WiFi completely, this doesn't happen.

I have:

Latest recovery

Tried all modems available for GS3

Tried stock kernal and ktoonz

All tests showed same results

Any help / advice will be very appreciates

Thanks

Hi all, if I make a cwm recovery backup on the gs3, will I be able to restore the data partition on the gs4?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] araemo:
I wouldn't try it. Too many apps with hardware-specific settings (System apps). You'd be better off doing a titanium backup of all your apps, and restoring your apps (And 'system data' like wifi hotspots, bluetooth pairings, sms history, etc..) while things like sms history and bluetooth pairings would probably transfer fine, system settings could get really flaky, and those are stored in the data partition.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dpwguenther:
Ok thanks for the info and quick reply
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] araemo:
Just pay attention to what you're restoring.. You can cause odd issues if you forget about what exactly you had an app set to do on your old phone, and restore it to a new one.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aviramido:
Just wanted to update, the April 3rd release seems to fix my issue, but only time will tell

ART working on 4/4?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
Once again, LTE issues, signal disconnects, they're all related. This has been discussed a lot on these forums. The solution is simple, restore to a TW based rom. Make sure you don't flash an older bootloader if you're on MJB/MK5.

Search around. I must have made at least 50 posts regarding this.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] joemommasfat:
Why don't you just try it and see. You tell us.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Phazonclash:
Nope, still broken for me (FCs). I'm sticking to the 03/28 Nightly until it's fixed ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aviramido:
Can't be LTE issues, because if I turn off WiFi connection remains steady, located in the exact same area (my apartment / home), behavior is consistent and identical in both areas.

WiFi is on and connected, cellular network disconnects every ~15 minutes and re-connects

WiFi is off or not connected, cellular network remains connected

Other ideas?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
No. But have you tried?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aviramido:
Yes, doesn't happen with stock.

I thought it might be modem (as I used the latest), but same behavior with CM + Stock modem.

Oh well, I guess I will have to "live" with it :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
What modem and bootloader are you on?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aviramido:
BOOT = MG2

Modem = LEM (stock)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
I would try with MJ2 bootloader as well as MJB modem.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aviramido:
Tried all of them, same result every time :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
Why did you revert back to MG2 bootloader?? Either way, I don't know otherwise. If you've tried everything yet still have a flaky connection, that would be the first I've heard of this sort of issue.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aviramido:
Cause I first tested the latest, had the problem, so I tested all modems, problem remained, so I reverted the bootloader and tested all modems again....

thanks for the help man
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
You reverted your bootloader without triggering the KNOX efuses? I'm quite interested in the method used there.

But, as stated above, use the newest bootloader (this is a must with new ROMs) and modem (not quite as important as bootloader) and you shouldn't have these issues.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RJQXCV:
Oh hey thanks for the helpful post man I really appreciate it bro great contribution 10/10 thanks so much.

Why waste my time if someone more eager than me is willing to tell me, so I can avoid making the mistake of flashing it? Get lost.

I've been noticing that the option to add the "Network Mode" tile only shows up if you go into settings, change your network mode from GSM/WCDMA/LTE to something like GSM only, and then go into your quicktile settings. After you exit settings the option disappears, but if you don't mess with your tile configuration, the tile will stay. Can anyone reproduce this?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RJQXCV:
Thank you.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] araemo:
After you went back to stock, how did you re-upgrade to CM? If you restored a CM backup, you probably restored the problematic setting as well.

I had a weird issue where the LTE toggle (to turn the phone back go 3G only) did not work - because I had been dirty flashing since an old CM build. A back to stock and clean install of CM fixed that for me. There can be system properties/preferences that have no exposed UI anymore that still effect things like the RIL, but get saved in your system settings with everything else.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aviramido:
went back with a clean install, but I will do a clean install again, it's worth a try....

Thanks.

Still broken for me, with both

I'm observing a stange issue btw on 04/10, and I wonder if I'm the only one. I can apply a wallpaper without any issue on my destop, but whatever I try, the Lock screen wallpaper will remain black

Update: Nevemind, I figured out what was going on.

Settings: Lockscreen custom wallpaper (2/2) (android_packages_apps_Settings)

Frameworks: Lockscreen custom wallpaper (1/2) (android_frameworks_base)

Nice addition. Quantum had this option for some weeks now. Good thing CM finally has it to.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
Didn't even notice it was missing; GravityBox has handled these kind of settings for me for a while now. It's also a reminder to reinstall Xposed after an update when my lockscreen and framework look completely different from what I expect to see. :) lol

After being back on dalvik for a few days now, I'm convinced that any performance increase I experienced on ART was just placebo. But I hear you, we like to run the cutting edge stuff. I'll go back when it's fixed.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
I've fiddled with ART a bunch of times, the constant issues of software not yet ready for it and CM breaking it half the time + not having access to Xposed modules made it seem like it just wasn't worth the hassle for now. There's a reason why it's in the Dev section. =P
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sugarkryptonite:
I definitely notice it and it's definitely not a placebo. Look up videos online.

Apps have a slight decrease in start time and it makes a world of difference for me because I'm always going in and out of apps. If you're a slower user I guess it wouldn't seem as apparent.

I installed Xposed once and because I didn't know about the lack of ART support, the phone switched back to Dalvik automatically (without me realizing). I always found myself saying "why is my phone so damn slow now?".

Sent from my S3
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
Xposed now force-enables Dalvik (JIT-compilation) when you install it, because Xposed can't operate on ART. (essentially precompiled binaries) That switching is a fairly new feature of the Xposed installer though.
