Been there, done that

Using latest Philz: Wipe davlik, cache, wipe to install new ROM, install Spirit, install pa-gapps (recommended from OP), reboot, go through setup. Select Play Store, my apps, all, error connecting to server.

Can't see any other way. Been doing that with all other ROMs without issue-CM11. Tribute, Wicked-X (and Bare Bones, too) and Conquest Singularity. MD5s not an issue, either. Any ideas? :confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fathom614:
Anyone have an idea why my external SD card is not being read? ROM is good except for the SD card issues. Internal reads fine, but not reading external. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Cmicasa the Great XvX:
Obvious question is did U try a different ext SD? I would slip it in an adapter and see if your PC can read it or see any files. If not.. U kno what the issue is. Furthermore if it can read it.. back up the files onto the PC and format the ext again. Then place the files back on there and stick in phone and see.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Randy3011:
Apparently Google was having issues yesterday. Loaded and got all my apps just fine. Starting to play now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Try SDFix by NextApp in the Play Store

My ROM: WICKED X
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fathom614:
My SD card works fine on Wicked X, PAC, Tribute, Broken, Slim, and Liquid Smooth stable, but when I flash Spirit, liquid beta my ext SD doesn't show up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fathom614:

[MENTION=4310299]bilgerryan[/MENTION] Gave this a try said it was good, but not so much. SD card is fine on some aosp roms and will not read on others. This was tried on the new bliss rom, spirit, liquid beta no external sd. Slim, Pac, liquid stable, broken all read my ext. sd fine.

op update v1.6

Op updated check download link changelog will post at later date
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Cmicasa the Great XvX:
Still no change log. What's the deal?:confused:

Lock Screen targets don't work at all. Going to them simply gives a pause, and then an unlock of the screen. They never actually open target app.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GT247:
Any. ...

Any word on the newest release?

I flashed the previous build on my gf's bff phone, I'm with them both now and wondering if I should flash it lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] notebooko:
How's the battery drain on this ROM? Other cm based ROMs I've tried like PAC and liquid smooth have had terrible battery drain when being used.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Cmicasa the Great XvX:
With exception to the lock screen target issues (insecure) and the lack of interest of the OP.. this Rom is my fav of all the AOSP roms. I'm getting 18+ hours with heavy use unless I use a lot of Bluetooth. That tends to drop me down to about 13
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
The OP has the AT&T variant of the S3, I know from experience it is very hard to provide support for a phone you don't have even if it is the same ROM... And I know at this point in time he is stepping back from development for awhile.

My ROM: WICKED X
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] notebooko:
Awesome. What kernel are you using? I tried flashing KToonsez KT747 and DKP but I end up with no signal/no wifi afterwards. I use kernel cleaner before flashing the kernels too.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Cmicasa the Great XvX:
No kernel but the one it came with. I do use Trickster and have it set at 486min 1512max Deadline
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] notebooko:
Hmm alright. So far my battery life doesn't seem so good like other cm based ROMs, but I'm gonna give this one a try. At least GPS works in this one!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Battery life takes at least three cycles before you get a good reading.

My ROM: WICKED X
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Cmicasa the Great XvX:
Even with this one I had to use Bilgeryan's method of gps calibration before it would work. That required me restoring TW then typing *#0*# in the dialer tapping sensor and getting the sync to 3.. then restored AOSP and I was good. (See http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3-sprint/help/gps-problems-4-4-4-t2895206/post56183429#post56183429).

I will say that reception signal and Data signal are extremely good on this version of AOSP. 3G-LTE almost always when I'm not on WIFI.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] notebooko:
Quick update: had pretty good battery life until mid-afternoon. I downloaded BBB and noticed a google play process causing wakelocks. I disabled all processes related to it (android wear stuff/fitness) and battery life seems to be really good again. Got through the whole day (14 hours 25 mins) with screen on time being 2 hours 10 mins. Pretty heavy usage making phone calls, checking emails, etc. I have 15% left before going to bed so not bad!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Cmicasa the Great XvX:
Told U. Now had that process not been running:cyclops:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Pariah24:
Howdy,

I'm on Boost and I've been trying this ROM for a while (v1.5) and it quite a bit. Unfortunately, my signal is noticeably lower in low-signal areas than Touchwiz ROMs. Also, my GPS cuts in and out and can't keep a lock on me when driving. That's a no-go for me; I rely on having an accurate GPS sometimes :(. And lastly, my external SD just dropped off one day. Disappeared, not mounted at all or recognized in recovery. If I could reconcile these issues I would keep using it as it is my favorite but if not I'm gonna try CM11 or go back to Touchwiz.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Cmicasa the Great XvX:
Just found a new and WORKING fix for GPS for AOSP. Found this out because I flashed another rom and lost GPS again. This time tho I decided to find a quicker, easier way of getting it back instead of having to flash back to TW... so I went in search and found this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1247683

the OP posts that by simply editing the gps.conf file with this:

NTP_SERVER=us.pool.ntp.org

NTP_SERVER=north-america.pool.ntp.org

NTP_SERVER=0.north-america.pool.ntp.org

NTP_SERVER=1.north-america.pool.ntp.org

NTP_SERVER=2.north-america.pool.ntp.org

NTP_SERVER=3.north-america.pool.ntp.org

XTRA_SERVER_1=http://xtra1.gpsonextra.net/xtra.bin

XTRA_SERVER_2=http://xtra2.gpsonextra.net/xtra.bin

XTRA_SERVER_3=http://xtra3.gpsonextra.net/xtra.bin

C2K_HOST=default

C2K_PORT=0

GPS will work. And it did.. perfectly.

I copied the file first and renamed it old, saving it to my ext SD.. then used Root Explorer to edit the file.

Just follow the directions by OP in that link and U should find PROFIT. :laugh: I deleted the original lines and then copied and pasted the new (above bolded) so as to not have to type all of the lines.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cLogic:
have you tried using Navigation ?

the OP in that thread says, "However, if you are trying to use the Navigation application, there is a good chance it will not work."

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Cmicasa the Great XvX:
yes.. used Google Maps and it got me to the door. :good:

Have not tried it with MapQuest tho.. will report back tomorrow

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AhsanU:
Anyone else experiencing this? I'm not sure what the reason behind this is but is it normal? After about 7 hours off charge with barely 30 minutes of screen on time, I'm down to 77%. Wakelock shows that it's been in deep sleep for only about three and a half hours. The phone has literally been doing nothing with location turned off, widget updates only once every 24 hours, etc. I'm not sure what's keeping this awake.

I have knock on turned on, but have greenified nearly everything for optimal battery life, including a handful of system apps (left a few one since i didn't know their purpose) but it seems like I should be getting a bit more.

Is anyone else getting this kind of awake time? Hopefully I didn't mess something up somehow. I can post more screenshots if anything.

Also, I am running G3 tweaksbox.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Protagoras:
Download wakelock detector from the google play store, and see what apps are the culprits.

Did you even read the post, or the look at the attachment?

I'm getting my information from Wakelock, and I don't see any applications and/or services that appears to be triggering CPU usage, or screen wake ups.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rkdku:
Hi guys,

Running: ARHD on HTC One M8 (with Nova Launcher), 4.4.2

Upon device startup (e.g. after a reboot), LMT Launcher automatically runs (I think) but the service is always deactivated. I have to go into the app and activate the service manually. This is quite a pain. Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.

Also - are there any good apps (root or otherwise) that can set certain apps to always run on startup? Apparently BootManager is one of them but it doesn't seem to work for me and is a little confusing. I've tried the app 'Autostart - No root' but it always takes ages starting the apps.

Many thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dertfy:
Hi, I soft- bricked my phone (recovery mode loads, boot logo loads, phone won't start)

I have MT6572 phone, I can write down specs if needed.

I rooted it, and it was working OK, but then I tried to change status bar images (battery logo etc.) with ROM Toolbox Pro and the phone just shutted down and won't properly start.

I haven't got a backup of my stock ROM, but I downloaded the one that was for my phone model, and I tried to apply it by entering recovery mode, selecting 'apply update from sdcard', and selecting the ZIP file with the ROM, but it just said 'installation canceled' in a few seconds.

Does anyone know how to help me?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] aeneas1:
a couple of questions:

1. thought i would take a look around in the "edit access point" settings but when i i tried to back out of it i got the the message "the name field cannot be empty" and the prompt "exit / ok". if i select "ok" it keeps me on the screen, if i select "exit" it i'm taken to the previous screen. why am i getting the "name field..." message? did i accidentally make a chance? or is the "name field..." message normal even if no changes are made?

2. thinking that i must have made a change, i t decided to use the "reset to default" apn menu option. well this ended up deleting the "T-Mobile US LTE" apn that was listed before i hit reset - it was listed along with one other apn, "T-Mobile US". but after taking a look at the "T-Mobile US" apn settings, they appear to be identical to the "T-Mobile US LTE" apn settings. so do i need to add back the lte apn? do all t-mobile s4 phones typically have both apn's? and finally, did i mess up the modem i flashed by hitting "reset to default"?

any help would be greatly appreciated.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] HampTheToker:
I believe, you could manually add the APNs back, or you could just reflash whatever rom you were running. Messing about with unknown things is the number one reason it's always a good idea to have a backup handy.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] steven-026:
I'm a little confused on what happened, but I would just add in the APN manually. This is the one I always use when putting it in. I don't think you need the non-LTE APN, as the list seems to show only one being used on my phone (I have a Verizon APN on my phone too because of the ROM I'm using). Modem should be fine I think.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] aeneas1:
thanks for the replies guys, i already sorted it out, just selected restore default apn and i was back in business...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Still_living714:
search the forums or google the apn for the phone. i have it written down since you have to manually add them if you flash hyperdrive rom. its better to have them incase of anything
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] aeneas1:
ha ha i've become an apn expert in the last couple of days in terms of editing and/or manually adding them thinking that i might have a problem! :laugh: but as it turned out i didn't have an apn problem after all, if you choose "add (+) " apn and then back out you will get the message i mentioned "the name field cannot be empty"... instead of backing out you have to select menu then "discard" which will take you back to the previous screen without an error.

but since you have been kind enough to respond, maybe you can help me with something else, i've started a thread but haven't received a response yet. are you able to send mms messages with wi-fi calling enabled? i'm not, i have to disable it if i want to send mms messages. the reason is wifi calling turns off the data network. i can send texts, but i can't send them to email addresses nor can i attach photos or videos - mms has to be sent over the data network. this is a problem for me because i live in an area with poor coverage, i need the wi-fi calling to make calls, and when i turn it off and try to send mms it's far too slow because of my signal strength. is there a mod, hack or workaround that would allow me to send mms over wi-fi rather than mobile data? what would be great is a web-based mms solution which would handle mms on the web, bypassing my phones limitations. here's my post:

This ROM is running really good. Really nice features.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RRF12:
Rom runs very good an is feature packed but I have very poor signal an I am in full service lte area switched back to Omni an have all bars on signal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrite123:
Installed easily, seems pretty stable, features, etc. But I noticed it uses imoseyon, does this mean it supports OC/UCing?

Installed fine using PA Gapps full-modular.

Edit: Yeah I'm not getting any signal either. WiFi works great, though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JNolan24:
Working great on my end. Very fast and stable. No reboots yet and signal is fine for me. Thx for a great ROM! :thumbup:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JNolan24:
Having problems with YouTube though. Was also having it on carbon ROM before I switched to this rom. Dont think its ROM related. I'm sure its YouTube related lol. Anybody else experiencing problems with YouTube?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrite123:
Yes I've been having youtube trouble on 2 different roms since yesterday and on PC. Some videos won't load.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dandydon414:
day two no issues at all. not even systemui fc that I've experienced with other 4.4.4 roms. great job. Using lean kernel
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidxxxxx:
Getting a fc after using voice text..banks minimal gapps..otherwise very smooth..

---------- Post added at 08:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:40 PM ----------

I mean using Google voice typing just to clarify..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrite123:
Just had a random reboot. Was downloading an update and trying to use Chrome. Default kernel.

Edit: Texting is also broken for me. I can receive but all outgoing texts fail.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dandydon414:
I must be lucky. I haven't had any problems with this rom at all. as far as texting, is it the stock messaging app? I use chomp and have no issue receiving, sending, mms...........all work for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] capt730:
What modem are you on?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrite123:
You know what, I think you're right. Just checked baseband and it's MB1. Is there a page with all the Android modems for download? I'd like to know for reference because I always find myself searching for them...

I have the same issue with all messaging apps. Stock, go sms, and hangouts. No idea.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] capt730:
I have had to use the MB1 Firmware in order to get messaging to work on AOSP roms. Masta's Unofficial CM11 thread has the MF1 firmware for download in the OP.

I also have a copy here.... https://mega.co.nz/#!RVAGHRDC!boUFGD-5jlMyBNNL9iMR5VOiu4wfQ_VjSUbwLvirGVU
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrite123:
But I am on MB1. I recently flashed mb1 firmware to test a 4.1.2 ROM. So I should flash mf1 firmware and then reflash Spirit?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dandydon414:
that stinks. out of curiosity I switched to stock mms and seems to work fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] capt730:
You shouldn't have to reflash the rom. Just flash the MF1 and if it works then nothing more to do.

I tried using the ML1 and NE1 modems and both put me back to the 1 sms problem where I could send 1 sms/mms and then have to reboot in order to send another. I also tried the MF1 firmware package and had the1 sms/mms issue. So, while on AICP at the time, I just flashed the MB1 firmware package and voila...sms sent normally again.

I am stuck on MB1 as long as I am on AOSP. Everything else I have tried has resulted in the 1 sms/mms issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrite123:
Well bad news... Just wiped dalvik+cache, flashed mf1 firmware, wiped again and I still can't even 1 sms/mms. It just says failed. Idk what else it could be. First time I've had problems with sending sms...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] capt730:
The only other thing I can suggest is turning off blacklist in the messaging settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrite123:
Nope.

Looks like I'm moving again... If it isn't one thing that doesn't work for me, it's another. :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] capt730:
Were you on the full MB1 firmware before or just the MB1 modem?

---------- Post added at 06:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:24 PM ----------

Just had my 1st issue in 2 days of running the rom....my phone just shut off. It was in my pocket (where i usually have it) and it is in a case, so it would be hard for the power button to be pushed in long enough to power it off. I have 75% battery left.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrite123:
I was on full mb1 firmware and tried the mf1 firmware and still had the same problem. Luckily after switching back to a TW rom fixed everything thanks to the mf1 firmware.

Still getting fc when trying to voice type a text message..I'm using Verizon messages.

---------- Post added at 08:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:26 AM ----------

Using voice type now though and it's working. Maybe it will even itself out. On the last spirit rom it seemed kind of sporadic.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidxxxxx:
OK..voice text still causing fc. Right when I hit the mic symbol..bam..fc to the spirit boot logo. And GPS is not staying locked..constantly lagging then catching back up. I tried tightening my screw's but still no go. Those are two features I use frequently.. So I gotta bail to an actual stable ROM..people throw that stable word around too easily.. Lol..otherwise a very nice piece of work.
