Love this ROM. Stable 7.0 has no issues that I experienced except for OTA function. Version 8.0 has OTA fixed but Bluetooth has issues. Not sure if anyone else has it as well. When call comes in, I can not hear and the caller says they hear clicks. Able to hear and callers are fine, if I initiate a call. Also not able to install any applications. Thank you for a great ROM.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Yes I know. Its fixed. The Changes will go in effect in the next weekly.

You believe correct! ;)

Yes I know. I am hoping the BT Stack we replaced, will hopefully solve this issue. If you see this issue after next weekly, then flash clean and send me a bug report after the BT call.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] vibrant2011:
Thank you

Hey guys does the last updated kt kernel works with slimkat stable 7?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Infamous_Cheez:
I just flashed the 8.2 weekly but have no network connectivity. Can anyone else confirm?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Being I am the author of both, YES it should.

Yes I'd like to know too if others see this.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nirogu325:
Both data and Wi-Fi works normally here with the latest weekly. Clean flash here with the PA Pico Gapps installed. Stock kernel.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Thanks for confirming, In this case, any Dirty Flash may be a cause of loss of data.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Infamous_Cheez:
Weird. Only thing I did differently was that I used PA Nano Gapps instead. I don't see how it would make a difference, but in the interest of testing, I will try those Gapps.

Edit : just as expected, no difference. I have been hesitant to update past the UVDMD5 bootloader/modem for various reasons and I'm beginning to wonder if that may be the cause as some people report this issue and some don't.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Cyclone999:
I'm having the same issue.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
I do believe Bootloaders do NOT have anything to do with the Problem at hand. I do have UVDMD5 bootloader and NC2 Modem. I do not see a need to force an upgrade to the Dreaded 4.3 and beyond bootloaders.

Were you able to make calls successfully on prior release ? What is your Modem /baseband?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Infamous_Cheez:
I believe I read somewhere that 4.3 modems would not work correctly without their corresponding bootloader as they were somehow tied to one another, which is why I also stuck with the MD5 baseband. If that's not the case I will check to see if using the latest baseband will work.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
You read correct. For other variants this is the case. I chose to go with NC2 Modem only to get rid of heating issue of MD5 Modem. Been using it since Late last year.

You don't have to change the modem just 'cause of this issue. We'll find another resolution.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Cyclone999:
I'm still on UVDLJA. I restored my backup (7.8), and everything working now.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Good to know. You don't have to change as a result of this issue.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] amealwithlargefries:
WiFi and network connectivity is working fine with the 8.2 update from 7.9 (clean flash), i can send and receive text messages BUT i cant send or receive phone calls. I reverted to my 7.9 backup and its working fine again.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nirogu325:
Yes, but I had to abandon the ROM as it has some dialer issues. Whenever I tried to dial a number, it would hang on me, not letting me call anybody. So I'm going to give this ROM more time "in the oven". It's fast, though.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] anil2653:
I read that some other builds too having same data and dialer issues so may be some issues with cm

For dialer to work just reset animation to 1x and try as stated in other threads
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Say WHAT ? Please be kind and either elaborate or link me to the discussion ? A quick search gave me a pile of Junk that's messy to wade through.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] anil2653:
Sorry for this

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1778217

It is on original development cm thread
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Thanks. But #14274 seems related more to dialer appearance not necessarily to the inability to hangup. Or am I mistaken ?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] anil2653:
Yes Perseus71 but in same page someone lost apn and network /data and also I flashed pac rom few days back and lost IMEI and just I was reading on ATT forum and there too someone lost IMEI after flashing new build

But only my thinking is that why it happens only to some not to all?

Weekly 3 to 4 times I will be flashing ROMs so don't think I would have done something wrong.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nirogu325:
Yes, you are right. Animations turned off only affect the dialer pad. It is not related to what I reported. Hopefully by next weekly it's fixed.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
The Current issues are stemming from the new Radio Libraries CM introduced. Those seem to be coded with the most recent firmware in mind. Particularly 4.4 Firmware for all other Carriers except T-Mo. If you have older modem, the Kernel isn't able to communicate with it and ends up reporting a 0 IMEI. You didn't loose your IMEI its just not getting read. Think this has spread across roms.

I do have a solution that I am testing.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muleyman:
I just flashed 8.2 over 8.0 I can dial a call but it immediately hangs up on my end. It does ring on the other end, though, but when the other person answers they hear nothing. Calls to my cell number get sent to voicemail. Phone showed H/H+ connectivity but I couldn't connect to anything needing data for a while. I messed with APN setting and Preferred Network Type and then set everything back as it was. My connection switched to E for a while and then finally back to H and data is working again. I can send/receive SMS/MMS messages fine. I tried making a call via Hangouts just for kicks and that worked fine, too. FYI
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] GenericAsianGuy:
I experienced this as well with 8.2. Flashed back to 8.0 for now and it's resolved.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Thanks guys, I have a working solution that is tested. Unfortunately one of the fixes is breaking it for a lot of other devices. If we do not have a resolution in time, I might post a rehosted Weekly.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cash2387:
Is this still broken on 8.4 weekly?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
No.

To All

Please use the following as your Current Weekly 8.4

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95747613655042121

Just for this once, keep aside the 8.4 posted on Slim Website.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muleyman:
So far, so good. No call/data issues with this build. Thanks!

Question: Is this build for just d2tmo or d2lte? There was a comment on G+ about the version on the slim website about phone still not working. Didn't want to give them a link if it was for a specific build...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Go ahead and share. This is a D2LTE Build. None of our builds are carrier Specific.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cash2387:
I've got it downloaded and will install after. But I gotta ask. Whats the difference on this one compared to the official download?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
There's a fix in this one that's not in the official.

Knowing both comes from same guy, what's *Official* ? :D
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] smartdroid:
Just curious: why wouldn't you just release the fix for 8.4 the normal way just sooner. Does this perhaps mess things up for developers working on the 8.5?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Long Story. Short answer, I will eventually.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TrinitiJordan:
keep up the good work

I'm really loving this ROM and all its features. The only issues I've found are 1) I just bought a galaxy gear watch and I cant connect to the gear manager app. It just freezes up and then crashes. It shows connected via BT but I cannot change anything on the watch because I cant get to the settings on the gear manager app. 2) I did a clean installation but im still showing less than 500mb of space on the device. My apps are only about 2gb and thats the biggest chunk of space. 3) None of my pictures are clear. Every photo I take is slightly fuzzy even if i focus. I tried changing the focus settings but it wont change. Its stuck on continuous. Besides that, everything else is great
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Did you do Clean Flash ??
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TrinitiJordan:
yes i always clean flash
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
In that case you'd need to flash Correct .PIT file to correct reported storage. DocHoliday has a thread for those files I believe in General forum.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Lazarus416:
WiFI for Root not working with SlimROM?

I am about to deploy in a couple of days and I just updated my TMO S3 from an old Hyperdrive ROM (4.1.2 based) to the latest SlimROM (4.4.4 based). On the old ROM WiFi for Root users was working just fine, but now I can't seem to get it to work. It appears to turn on, but my tablet does not see the SSID, so I can only assume that it is not actually working. Does anyone have any idea how to make this work? I have run searches and tried to find something obvious, but I have not found anything so far that works. I am now very short on time and don't have several more days to spend looking further. Any suggestions? I use tethering almost daily and I really need it to work. Thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TrinitiJordan:
i found the correct PIT file. can i flash this by itself or do i need to use it with a clean flash of the rom?

EDIT: I fixed the storage issue. I was on 7.0 but I went ahead and clean flashed 8.2 weekly. Then had to format the /sdcard. I never needed to do that before now but I will from now on
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] itsLYNDZ:
I am planning to switch over to this rom from another 4.4.4 rom. What version is the most stable with the least amount of issues?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Infamous_Cheez:
Any build in the Stable section should be fine for you. D2LTE did not receive a Stable 8.0 build so the latest will be 7.0.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] smartdroid:
8.0 is more stable that 7.0. I'm using it currently and have no major issues.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muleyman:
Flashed 8.6 this morning and lost baseband. Put the custom 8.4 back on and everything is working again. I saw there was a Jenkins issue and that 8.6.1 was building. Is losing baseband related to a build issue or do I need to try something different?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
I don't think so. But please note, Dirty flash or even restore of any data will cause you to loose LTE/3G connectivity.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muleyman:
Ok. When I get a minute I'll try again and clean flash. Thx.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
[MENTION=3004837]muleyman[/MENTION]

ALL - Please be on the lookout of a 8.6.1 weekly. Jenkins in Rebuilding.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muleyman:
I was going to try and dirty flash 8.6.1 and I swear I didn't check the format system box but I guess I did. Installed 8.6.1 and everything seems to be working.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] smartdroid:
Does that mean that flashing any 8.6 version or beyond will require a clean flash without the ability to restore data? Or this is an isolated issue and we will be able to dirty flash / restore data beyond this version?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Good For you. Others had trouble.

I do believe this is one off isolated issue.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] smartdroid:
It's a one off for 8.6? Does that mean 8.6.1 should be fine or 8.7 will be fine?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Its One Off DUE TO 8.4.1. If you had not flashed 8.4 you are good. If you did, you have to do clean flash before any other flash.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muleyman:
I can also confirm that I'm no longer having issues installing any of the apps that were giving me trouble in previous builds.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] itsLYNDZ:
Could anyone post the link to download Version 8 stable for the Tmobile S3? I am having a hard time finding it on the rom website. Thanks!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] benleong2008:
GPS stopped working for me after 7.0. Clean flashed everytime
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] GenericAsianGuy:
Version 8 was released as a weekly: http://slimroms.net/index.php/downl.../14764-slim-d2lte-4-4-4-build-8-0-weekly-6967
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Infamous_Cheez:
I can confirm this issue with the latest weekly also.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muleyman:
yeah, same here. I pulled up a map and it found me right away but later found out it was using wifi to find me. Setting to device (GPS) only I found that GPS is not working.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Yep I know. Looking into it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TrinitiJordan:
I've noticed that whenever I restart my phone, it takes forever to boot up, like the initial boot after flashing. Also the folders on my home screen lose all the apps on my sd card, so i have to add them back to the folders each time. Is this normal?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] xkjtx:
Was wondering if there was a way to change the Kernel Color. I have Rom Toolbox and it doesn't have the Trinity Colors option.. Was wondering if the kernel in stable 7 has the ability to change that color? Do I need to install another kernel if not? Also, what kernel would be best for this option? Thanks in advance..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Which Version is that ? Clean flash ?

Gamma control was added after that.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] xkjtx:
Where is the Gamma control option?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TrinitiJordan:
im on 8.2. always a clean flash
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] smartdroid:
Why have a separate question and answer section? Isn't that the point of the thread to discuss questions and answers. The questions were about slimkat. Why complicate things? Its not like this thread has a million posts a day that would be facilitated by separate sections.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
The issue was removed around that time. I don't recall exact weekly but please try a factory reset then see the boot time without any Data Restore.

This is really a development thread with the intent to only discuss LogCat from the users. Basic questions, particularly from those with Less than 10 posts are supposed to go in there.

FYI All - There will be no Weekly this week. I need more time to test for the Non-Working GPS issue. It will not be fixed in time for the Weekly build tonight. I might put out a test build later in the week. But Don't consider as a weekly.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nht48823:
generally i wait until stable version is out but this time 8.0 there is was non in stable section, from what i read weekly was the stable. my daily driver - 4.4.4 build 8 weekly 6967. so far I been struggling with it, clean flash as always, the 1st thing i notice after installation the log in screen kept crashing something related to G+ - i got past it - been using it for about couple weeks maybe more, recently i notice every time i view call history the app crashes with a message " unfortunately, dialer has stooped. " -

another issue with this build, Bluetooth, - incoming calls, no sound nothing happens - out going call is fine, everything works fine if i call out. i tested it with my brother's phone same phone (not rooted) and the Bluetooth worked fine.

at this point i will be going back to 7 stable, i used it for 3 4 months and it worked great. I will wait until the lollipop is out for my next update.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
There was a reason why I released 8 as weekly not stable. If I don't think its Rugged Daily Driver its not stable hut weekly
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nht48823:
That makes sense....Thank you
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mp3deviant721:
That's a kernel issue that was present in some ROMs and custom kernels. Try flashing a custom newer custom kernel.

Hangouts mic working for T999?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
To All -

Please note, there will be a weekly coming up. This weekly may have issues with GPS (or not). That's just a headsup. Please let me know if you continue to have issues with SMS/MMS afterwards.

Do not Post a Bug Report/Logcat if you did Dirty Flash.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muleyman:
Had one reboot after I first connected to my car stereo via bt. Music via bluetooth was choppy yesterday, too, but today it's been fine. As of now, GPS seems to be the only issue. Not exactly what the sms/mms issues referred to were, but i don't think I've had any with SlimKat.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] totbl:
Anyone here with T999 confirm Hangouts mic is working? I love this ROM but I need Hangouts to work as I have no data plan. Please get back to me. Thank you for reading. :)

Awesome! Will try. Tmobile? T999 THANKS.

---------- Post added at 01:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:43 AM ----------

Also, what changed here in 8.10 exactly? For science.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muleyman:
Yeah, T999/TMobile

Check the link to the change log a couple of posts up. General changes to Slim. Don't see anything specific for d2lte devices this week.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] totbl:
Im on d2tmo but according to that changelog, i see a bunch of entries related to telephony and audio at a glance. Hope it works, if not i am seriously at a loss. Really appreciate tge response. Very strange bug on my end, ay?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] totbl:
It's a no-go. What could the problem be? Mic works on everything else. Could it be the modem I'm on? Does that even affect the mic? TW works fine with it. I don't even know. I really need help troubleshooting this.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Post a bug report.

For everyone else. Here go be happy.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] totbl:
Where can I do that?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muleyman:
Thanks, Perseus71 for functional GPS! Will work on testing everything else as the night goes on.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muleyman:
After in installed the unofficial, my phone freaked out... first it was slow and then it would boot loop. A few reboots and a re-flash later, it finally displayed that I was out of space. I cleaned off old versions of the ROM and GAPPS packages going back to stable 7 and got a few gigs of space back. Funny how having a little, (lot of), extra memory helps phones run better... my bad.

Since then, it's worked great. Ringer volume is LOUD compared to previous version. One can turn that down, though. Voice calls are fine. It seems like the gyro is much more sensitive/accurate with this build, or at least it is for me, and that's a good thing. Bluetooth streaming works great. I have yet to try a call over BT through my car stereo but will try that this afternoon. Data speed tests are as good as they've been. Wireless signal strength is the same as I've seen in earlier builds. Battery life seems to be consistent with other builds. I still run Nova launcher and the real dark slim. I'm also using dalvik runtime.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Thanks that is very helpful. I am testing a change that I hope to have some good size effect on battery.

EDIT - If you see flaky LTE, please check your Preferred Network Type. Make sure its set to LTE.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muleyman:
Calls over Bluetooth worked fine.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Oh Great. Good to know. Thanks!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ShernDog:
Can anyone tell me some kernels that will work with this ROM? I need some names to research...

I don't know what makes a kernel work or not work on specific ROMs so just somewhere to start would be nice. I hear sometimes changing kernels can fix battery issues and stuff (which I have bad battery life lately only on SlimRom...)

Thanks.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muleyman:
I see the 8.12 weekly out on slimroms.net. Should we stay away from that if we're using the 8.10 unofficial?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Your Call. Not an absolute Necessity. Just that Battery Commit is the difference. My other commit didn't make it.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ticklemepinks:
the battery drains after using it for like 4 hrs, it light the battery won't hold a charge except when idle/sleep
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nicklovell23:
Not trying to sound like an a** but you basically just told me the same thing. Try better battery stats to see what's causing the drain. Its not a ROM issue its an app your running issue.

Not sure if this has been fixed in the weeklies, but Stable 7.0 cannot receive calls.

Can anyone show me everything I need to edit in the build prop in order for my phone to be shown as a Galaxy S3? I've changed ro.product.brand to samsung, ro.product.name to galaxy s3, ro.product.manufacturer to samsung and ro.build.product to galaxy s3 and I still cannot download milk music from app store. I had to sideload it.

Don't know what's up with that. I just tried another hangouts call on 8.14 with no issues. I did see it on an old vibrant running slim 4.3, though.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] totbl:
Ive read it might have something to do with the build.prop or something. IDK its not like my mic is physically broken. Is my S3 like a unicorn? Lol

Post it on Dankoman's Slim Gapps thread please.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dkarmann:
Thanks Persues, I have market helper installed but I hate having to load it up every time I want to look at the play store. Is there no permanent solution?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Kitkat requires changes in at least 4 places. Please Google for a Lifehacker's article on device spoofing.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dkarmann:
I am unable to find anything pertaining to kitkat specific changes. Everything I see states to change ro.product.model but my build prop doesnt have this entry.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
its converted to ro.slim.model.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dkarmann:
Unfortunatly I dont have a ro.slim.model either...... I'll just use market helper as this seems futile.
