M10 arrives

http://www.cyanogenmod.org/blog/cyanogenmod-11-0-m10-arrives
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] slicetwo:
How many people here use Bluetooth to stream music to their car head units? Does anyone notice a degradation in quality of the sound? I'm running it to a Pioneer DEH-9400BT and it always seems to be a weak signal even though the phone is right up with the receiver. Is there an issue with audio over BT on the CM releases?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mcnutty:
Don't flash it if you are on a recent nightly or you'll get bootloops ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
I was never a fan of bluetooth to stream audio to my car. No matter the phone or the receiver, it seems the quality is always subpar akin to an FM transmitter. My current car radio doesn't have bluetooth though, so I'm no help here.

So wired or nothing. :p
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] shad876:
So does that mean it would have to clean install then?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] elcocolo50:
Yes clean Install, if not you have a bootloops that's happen to me.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] shad876:
Yeah I was experiencing bootloops but gosh I can't be bothered with a clean install right now..all those apps n settings to restore n reconfig ugh!!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
Why would you go back from a nightly to a monthly release when the monthly release is the equivalent of 9/9 nightly + some fixes? Might as well run the 9/15 nightly and not bother.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] shad876:
Yeah, currently on the 9/15
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
In my not so humble suggestion, you should simply stay on the nightlies instead of wiping to go "back" to M10.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] shad876:
Okay..why do you suggest that though?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stormdude124:
Has anyone noticed you can't change anything in /system or change permissions anywhere? Something is wrong with SU.I did a full wipe same thing:

(Really large screen shot)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
Because the CM11 M10 release is none more stable than the current nightlies, and also is based on 9/9, so you're technically regressing.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] shad876:
Okay cool, I get you
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
I just changed permissions of a file in etc/init.d without issue on 9/14 nightly using Solid Explorer + SuperSU. Make sure you allowed su rights to your file browser.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] elcocolo50:
I can change permission on m10 with no problem I use root explorer.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stormdude124:
You mean you installed super SU from play store? I did that and tapped normal install and it failed,should I use zip method?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
Personally I flash the SuperSU zip. But if you can't switch by tapping normal install, then something is messed up with your SU install for some obscure reason.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stormdude124:
I installed su with zip method it was successful but the error still happens,didn't have this problem on m9....I'll try to figure out something because root still works.I know because adway is successful on changing host file in /system...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] korrectmethod:
Flashed m10 clean install with latest 9/1 micro pa gapps and all is fine. GPS is working again for me.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stormdude124:
ES file explorer is saying read-only file system,apparently its unable to mount /system as RW...

EDIT:downloaded https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.beansoft.mount_system&hl=en and mounted system and now everything is normal...strange

I'm not going to question it,just going to accept it lol
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mcnutty:
ES file explorer requires you to enable root functionality in the settings. It is not on by default. There is an option in there to remount /system as r/w.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] wild1z:
CM has SU built in right? Why flash another? Just curious. Unless I missed something.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
For fun. Or preference. CM does have a superuser solution built in, yes.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] slicetwo:
I flashed M10 right over M9 and my camera keeps freezing up when trying to focus. Anyone else experiencing this? I nandroided back to M9 and it's working flawlessly.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bhutoria_1989:
Which Gapps Package are you guys installing (along with Download Link) for the latest M10 Builds.

Will be doing a clean install and would like to know the stable combination. TIA.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2397942

Choose whichever. Personally I run gapps Micro.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pixbuf:
Cleared /data and /system, reflashed the 9/15 nightly and still no GPS. Don't know what to try next.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] monda420:
For me gps started working again on 9/17 wasn't working before. Try 9/17 and see. I hope that helps.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] korrectmethod:
Clean flash of m10 fixed it for me.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pixbuf:
Flashed 9/18. Still no GPS. :crying:

I guess I'll try a clean flash of M10, as korrectmethod suggested. What else can I do?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] vbetts:
You may need to do an NV Rebuild for your GPS.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=39156594#post39156594

You do need a Touchwiz rom for it however.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pixbuf:
Yeah, I don't think that's my problem. That guy says the GPS icon doesn't appear. I have no problem with that. I can turn GPS on but it doesn't see any satellites. Not one. 0.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] korrectmethod:
Mine was the same problem as yours. Showed GPS icon but 0 satellites, wasn't even trying to lock. Now it locks on almost instantly.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] droidgeek99:
I'm noticing a very annoying little bug. When the screen is unlocked it displays a gray screen until the back button is tapped and then it slides away to the right and displays the phone screen as normal. See attached screen shots

This problem showed up recently after I upgraded from a 9/3 nightly to a 9/16
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] droidgeek99:
I also an still using an issue with notifications. After about an hour of use most notifications stop coming in. This affects gmail, hangouts, Facebook messenger and others. Also apps installed from the web on the google play store don't download an install to the device until after I open the google play store which isn't normal. On my old phone they would begin downloading instantly.

I'm using PAgapps full modular package. And I'm using the latest nightly ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] korrectmethod:
I've had the notification issue before, though it wasn't consistent and I couldn't replicate it. Haven't had a problem since clean flashing m10, but before that I went about 3 weeks of dirty flashing nightly's, so I suspected that was why. I haven't had the play store issue, but I'm using pa gapps micro. Maybe it's a browser issue.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
Used to have issues like that at work because of flaky internet, I would lose connection to Google servers and thus push notifications. Usually just turning the screen on and waiting 5 seconds would make it reconnect.

Haven't had this issue since we got a mega wifi antenna that goes through walls...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] droidgeek99:
Yeah that makes sense. But what's interesting to note is that it worked fine on my old LG Optimus T that had even worse WiFi connection. And the new phone is the only change in my home network.

Also it's not only when sleeping that the problem occurs. Notifications just don't come in at all period until I open the respective apps. Problem happens on other WiFi networks too. And also when I'm in my office only 10ft from the router.

All this leads me to believe that it is the phone or the ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
Which modem are you running? Which rom too? Clean flash or dirty flash?

You can see if you lost connection to Google servers by the icon color change for wifi/data. If possible for you, try to see if your notifications popup if you disable wifi and stay only on data. Then you'll know if it seems wifi related.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] droidgeek99:
Baseband modem is I747UCUEMJB

I'm running the CM11 d2lte official nightly for the i747 device. See screen shot.

My WiFi connection is always a gray/white color, when I used ICS 4.0 on my old phone it would change blue but since kitkat it has always between white.

I don't have a phone plan at all. Just use it on WiFi so can't do that one unfortunately.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cristianpark:
I just sold my Almighty i747, I'm very grateful with the cellphone but I had the chance to get an i337 and take it. Thanks for your tips, I'll surely be a CM user in the new S4, see you around guys
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kmarc33:
I had 2 problems, gps and bluetooth. Clean flashed m10, gps back, still no bluetooth. Just flashed 9/20, gps gone again. <sigh> Don't go to nightlies from m10 if you want to keep gps...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] droidgeek99:
Found a solution!!!

Google Play Services is the culprit. If I force close it or any of the Google Service processes they simply restart and within seconds notifications for emails and messages hours old begin flooding in.

So using Advanced Task Manager I set it to kill Google play services every minute. Now notifications come in within 1 min time.

Hope Google fixes their problem in goggle play services soon cause even automated it gets annoying.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hizhonor:
Appears it's kernel related. It's a known issue now and relates to 3.4.103. Load an earlier kernel and it's working fine on the 9/20 nightly. I flashed Quantumkernel from 7/25 and I'm back in business.

Steve
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kmarc33:
Thanks, it's in jira here:

https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/NIGHTLIES-123

Unfortunately I'm one of the people that also lost GPS using nightlies. I clean flashed M10 a few days ago, GPS worked, still no bluetooth. I then updated to 9/20 and lost GPS again. This morning I clean flashed M10 again. GPS is back. I've got a really busy week coming up and can't play with my phone until next weekend so I'm just going to wait. I'm thinking about, next weekend, clean flashing the latest nightly and seeing if I have GPS. If I do, great, then I can worry about bluetooth, if not I'll nandroid back to M10. But I use GPS a lot (I run or bike almost every day). I don't want to sacrifice GPS trying to get bluetooth. Dealing with both issues at the same time isn't fun. I've never actually flashed a new kernel. I've got a pretty good readme for clean flashing but it's still time consuming. I don't want another variable right now. But thanks for the info about Quantum, I also read in the jira ticket that an older BMS will work too.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Tanker Bob:
Where do we get Quantumkernel from 7/25? I can only find version 9/8 based on 3.4.103.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hizhonor:
I found an earlier one here:

Steve
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Tanker Bob:
Thanks, Steve! Which do you think would be better for general purpose use, BMS or Quantumkernel?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hizhonor:
There are several that seem to work. I picked Quantumkernel because I've been on and off his ROMs for several months and have been happy with things. BMS and Lean would have been my next stops. Try 'em all and let us know what you think.

Steve
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Tanker Bob:
Thanks for your input. I'm tossing a coin as my nandroid backup runs. :)

---------- Post added at 10:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:11 PM ----------

I tried both the Quantumkernel 7/25 (based on 3.4.99) and the BMS 20140806 kernel (based on 3.4.101). Both fixed the Bluetooth headset problem. I stuck with the BMS because it had newer CM commits included. Thanks for your invaluable help, Steve!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] comdei:
Just installed cm-11-20140916-SNAPSHOT-M10-d2lte.zip and lost all of my APNs. I have no data, nor can I make calls. How do I fix this? it was a clean flash.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ScOULaris:
All you can do is input the APN info manually for your carrier at this point. Either that or restore from a Nandroid backup that was made before this happened.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] comdei:
it doesn't let me add any new APN, it is a blank window.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
You need to update your modem.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] comdei:
Would that also cause a UNKNOWN IMEA/SV?

Link to new modems? I'll give that a shot first.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kmarc33:
I went to the latest modem/bootloader, NE4, this morning, no problems so far. Remember that if you go to the latest you can't back down. The link I used was this thread:

that worked! thanks!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kmarc33:
Replying to myself but the bluetooth bug just got marked as fixed, should be in the next nightly. Unfortunately I still don't see anything about the gps bug being fixed so I might test it to see if it works but then nandroid back to M10 and BMS kernel because I still need gps.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
Yep I second the bluetooth bug, dan reverted the commit that breaks it. I'm using gps as I write, so not sure what you mean about that.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kmarc33:
Several of us have been having a bug where we don't see any sats with GPS, going back to early September. Examples are:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=55490202&postcount=1202

I've been on M10 because anything other than it causes me to see zero sats. I'll clean flash tomorrow's and see if the bluetooth works. If so I'll check GPS. If not I need to nandroid back down. But we noticed GPS having problems somewhere around:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=55312869&postcount=1151

Also note that it might be related to:

https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-5418

It really sucks though. The bluetooth was fairly common, this GPS problem seems to be hit or miss, some people are saying "works for me", some have nothing. I clean flashed M10 and had GPS working fine, earlier I clean flashed ... 9/11 I think, and no sats. Really odd.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
Well talk about irony. I flashed 28th nightly and for some reason I can't get a lock now on gps. :S I don't need it terribly, but still haha
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] droidgeek99:
Simple work around if you have no lock on GPS, simply reboot into recovery and flash the update ROM zip directly again after running the auto update. Bugs seem to vanish.

Good luck works for me!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kmarc33:
<sigh> well, I'm still stuck. Full wipe, wiped /system, everything. Installed 9/28 and pa-gapps. Went through the usual setup junk. Installed GPS Test. Zero sats. Rebooted back to recovery and flashed it again. Came back up, went to GPS Test, zero sats. Tried configuring one of the GPS optimizing .conf files floating around (from here: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/gps-lock-faster-xdatv/). Cleared AGPS. Rebooted. Nothing in GPS Test. Grabbed a logcat. Rebooted back to recovery, wiped everything, restored nandroid of M10. GPS Test sees 21 sats, using 14, accuracy of 10 feet in about 15 seconds.

of course, being old and senile, I forgot to test bluetooth before restoring the nandroid. Anyway, I think I'm stuck with M10 for a while. I'm going to search around on jira, see if I can find out if my logcat will be useful.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
Yes I'm pretty sure it's broken. Can't fix it either, so I don't know what's up with that.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] J M L:
I did a clean install of 9/28 (coming from a different ROM) and GPS did not work for me. The icon said it was on, but no satellites were located. Because not everybody is suffering from this problem I tested a hunch and clean installed M9, and verified GPS worked. I then dirty flashed 9/28 over M9, and my GPS continues to work.

I clean installed a nightly a week or two ago and GPS did not work for me, so I immediately switched to something else.

I'm not familiar enough with the internals of Android to guess what is happening.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Lessaj:
I dirty flashed 9-28 over 7-19 I believe and my GPS still works.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
Make sure you guys check with gps status or similar app, not just the icon showing up. Either way, strange issue.

My GPS is fine too...Running 09/22 with BMS kernel.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
Both non-stock kernels though. :p
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kmarc33:
When I clean flash I go in to Play Store and download GPS Test Pro, bought it a while ago because I use the GPS so much and I found the free version to be so handy that I wanted to throw the devel a few bucks.

Noob question: I'm running M10 (to have a working GPS) and BMS 06AUG (to have working bluetooth). Someone mentioned dirty flashing 9/2[89] over it. But with BMS aren't I just putting dirty over dirty over ...

I know that I need to reflash a kernel after every update but I'm concerned about all of the garbage being left behind. I'm considering, as a test, clean flashing M10, testing GPS. If fail, nandroid back. If works, flash 9/2[89] over it. If still GPS, test bluetooth. If GPS failed, nandroid back. So kind of build my way up to current, starting with M10, no BMS, and see how I do.

Does that sound like a reasonable approach (although annoying and time consuming, but ... <shrug>)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] swapsmagic:
Will this ROM works for having 4.4.2 att rooted phone with NE4 baseband? Last when i tried couple of months ago it was not supporting NE4 BASEBAND.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
I'm pretty sure both GPS and bluetooth issues are kernel related. It occured to me that I might have been running dkp kernel when GPS was working because I was testing it before the weekend. I need to stop drinking. :p
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kmarc33:
or start sharing, it will reduce your consumption. ;)

I think I'll stay where I'm at for now, and investigate jira and see if anyone is even aware of the GPS issues and is working on them. If not I have a logcat. But I don't want to create a duplicate and some of the jira stuff, when you search for GPS, is ... thick to read.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polobunny:
I agree about the bug tracker. You'll probably know when GPS is fixed by people running the nightly (like me!) in this thread eventually.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kmarc33:
Thanks. I know I'm not going to feel better though until I'm sure someone is aware of it at least. With the bluetooth bug I could watch nightly-123 and have a clue. Now I'm sitting here wondering "is anyone even working on it?"

Bootloader is MJB

Using the "CyanogenMod updates" download feature within the "About Phone" group in Settings I did not have GPS, but I read that I could download the nightly on my desktop, transfer it to the S3, and use Recovery Mode to install it to get GPS working again. I did that & GPS worked.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sgloki77:
quick question

the people having issues are on NE4 firmware, or is only affecting the ones with older modem/bootloaders combo?

just wanna know since I wanna flash latest nightly but don't want to lose gps, I need it daily

Any bootloader/modem combo is affected.
