I don't get it. I always had the "Cannot connect to camera" error on KitKat, it was never fixed. Now, on Lollipop all worked fine until the weekly 2 update. Now I have the same error. What's the matter?

I also tried using the Restart Camera app from temasek, but it seems that it doesn't do anything on Lollipop. Is there any alternative?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Prasath.B:
Please restart the mobile

Can you please restart the mobile and check? I got this error once or twice but a restart of the phone had fixed it and now I am not getting any errors. If still you are getting the error, then go to Settings -> Click on Apps -> Scroll to All -> Select Camera -> Clear Cache, Clear Data and even you can clear Defaults.

Most probably this should help with fixing the issue but if you are still having the same issue then you may try with another camera app.

install mediaserver killer app from playstore.it saved me from rebooting!whenever camera crashes i push the button in the app and camera works again.

Thank you.

I guessed that was the case, but thought I would double check on the font of all knowledge forum.

My WiFi fast reconnects when turn on, almost wouldn't notice, but it really turns off when screen turns off, so if I am downloading something it stops when screen goes off and only return when I turn on , not sure if it would use data if was enabled because mine is off since that is my second phone without data plan.

Stock kernel, full wiped, and didn't get why was so slow to reinstall apps from play store, until keep the screen on to complete
[Galaxy S III Android Development] VVMM:
Ok, I did restart the phone and at least for now, all works fine.

Another bug that wasn't on KitKat with the same Google Camera: If I choose video, the displayed video is in 4:3 format (does not go under the record button). If I turn around (rotate) the camera (the phone, actually) the image seems distorted. Remark: the actual video being recorded is 1080p indeed, just the displayed format during record is 4:3 and skewed.

Now I'm on weekly 1 and I can't get an update to weekly 2 from the Cyanogenmod update menu so tough about update handy.

When I'm installing the rom, sould I factory reset my device? Cause I really don't wanna backup every thing right now
[Galaxy S III Android Development] deejaycarras:
Try checking if your Power Button or Home Button are broken
[Galaxy S III Android Development] casujo18:
Hello

Weekly2 clean installed.But i haven't sim access. No data, can't call, definitely no red.

I back to cm.20150122 version and all works perfectly.

Anybody with this issue?

Sorry for my english
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lennert_F:
No, but when you have installed the weekly 2 build, it is recommended to wipe the cache and dalvik cache. If you do everything right, you will not lose your data and files.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jereroland:
Thanks for the advice but I doubt it is a hardware problem: the power button does turn the screen on and off (and brings up the power off menu when long pressed). On the other hand I realized that when the screen is on the home button sometimes stops working, but when the screen is off it systematically turns it on. As for the Menu button, it works as expected but I cannot reassign its behavior with the "settings->buttons" menu. Considering that I also cannot get any other setting than "none" or "swipe" to stick in "settings->security-> screen lock", I would conclude that something is messed up in my settings, but I have no idea how to fix this (and if I do a clean install I am afraid this would come back at some point).
[Galaxy S III Android Development] rob180sx:
Just to update on my own issue re mobile data not working, i wiped the phone and reinstalled weekly 2 with gapps and mobile data is working again.

It must have been some issue with the dirty install i did previously :o
[Galaxy S III Android Development] toto2700:
The app Mono Bluetooth Router is still not working. Something is wrong with the ROM. It is working on I9070 with CM11 and on N8020 with stock ROM. Must be CM12's fault. Please fix this bug.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sanguinesaintly:
Could you be more specific? What is 'not working' ? Error messages and logcat would be useful. Clean install and stock kernel? Incidentally didn't you post earlier saying that it didn't work in cm11 and that there was a bug in it?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DrCuddles:
So, I'm doing nothing different, I've been using this since weekly 1 got released and today my phone crashed and is now stuck in bootloop.

I can't get to recovery (key combination not working), every so often the phone boots up but my build.prop dpi changes have reverted back to default and after about 10 seconds the phone reboots again.

I'm hoping I can get it to boot up so I can boot to recovery from the phone and do a full wipe but any suggestions whilst I wait for that to happen?

Update: The longer I kept my phone off the more chance I had of it booting up, eventually managed to get into the OS, rebooted to recovery. Full wipe, reflashed rom, reflashed gapps. All sorted :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andrewwright:
Don't really know were to ask this so I'll ask here. I'm trying to compile with local_manifest.XML in first post and get the error 41. Telephony-common_intermediates/classes-full-debug.jar]. Many thanks for any info. :)

Usb OTG

I tried to connect usb otg cable and a pen drive. Pen drive's led turns on but then off. So pen drive doesn't work. Can you fix it?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sanguinesaintly:
So you can't see the usb drive from the android file manager? When did it last work. Clean wipe and install, with stock kernel?

Android Auto

I flashed Weekly 2 and have noticed a few issues I wanted to ask the devs about. For some reason every now and again (seems to be random) I get "Andriod Auto" appearing on a black screen and a steering wheel icon in the notification bar. The screen flashes a few times and the icon blinks and disappears. I checked the running apps and cant see an app of that name, is it a system process?

[IMG="Screen Shot"]http://www.picpaste.com/pics/Screenshot_2015-01-28-20-26-41-FwGx3fAR.1422476974.png[/IMG]

Also, this is probably an upstream request, but is there any way of dulling down the boot logo? That white background is super bright on tired, just awake eyes!!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DaisyF:
Install another one with recovery. A few pages back someone posted a dark bootscreen.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Isovitisgr:
Hey guys!

I did a clean installation of Weekly 2 and I am really satisfied with smoothness of it! I only have one problem. I use 7 screens with widgets and apps and I do have some redraws from time to time. When these happen, though, some of the apps on these screens dissapear. I think that's the only problem I face with the ROM!

On, the other hand, I have a question. Since the smoothness is great would you recommend to try Boeffla's Kernel or stick to the stock one?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] toto2700:
I'm sorry if I wasn't clear. I don't get error messages just I don't hear any sound on my bluetooth headset. It was clean install with stock kernel but yesterday flashed boeffla kernel. But it does not work with boeffla either.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] ayoubij:
ive been looking for an alternative since I have the same issue and its a pain to restart the phone and wait each time this error occurs.

In kitkat I had this issue but I had restartcamera.apk by [MENTION=2332422]temasek[/MENTION] now its not working on lollipop I think it need some minor modification. I really hope that some experienced dev such as [MENTION=4604352]Moster2[/MENTION] or [MENTION=4735953]JuStar[/MENTION]ch or [MENTION=4898097]arter97[/MENTION] fix and release such an app to restart the camera in lollipop and thus avoiding to restart the whole system and the long wait.

Been running several versions without any problems except that I can never get the CM music app (eleven) to run. Always wigs out. Not a horrendous issue as I can use play music or alternative, but anyone else with this issue?

Catlog attached. Am on Weekly 2 stock kernel. Any logcat whizzes or there? :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] toto2700:
I made a logcat. I hope it helps.

(Yes, I could not hear any sound in my Bluetooth headset in CM11 either. But it works with I9070 with CM11)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Skully123:
I also have noticed it as well. (I've only had this issue when the phone is being charged, but randomly and not often)

Hi guys, i flashed supersu and then i also installed the script of backup, when i update, need reflash supersu?? with others ROM i installed the script of backup but i lost equally supersu and i had to flash supersu again :(
[Galaxy S III Android Development] flither:
I'm really curious what can cause camera problems for some of you guys. I flashed many roms on my s3 (since KitKat times) and NEVER had any issues with camera (except ONE distorted video problem in one of older SlimKat builds), also no problems since first alphas of this ROM or Nameless. I'm always performing fullest wipe, even if just jumping from previous build of the same ROM.

Maybe we could explain problems with wi-fi for some people, as there are two different wi-fi chips installed in our phones, but afaik there is only one camera module type (or maybe I'm wrong?)

Guys please, to make all bugs reports trustable and comparable, REPORT BUGS ONLY AFTER FULL WIPE AND WITH STOCK KERNEL :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] fcaronte:
You can install mediaserver killer from playstore... Open it disable auto kill and add the kill widget on your home.... When camera fail to start touch the widget (give root right) and now camera work again.... Different app but same result :) I found only this trick with less passage
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ayoubij:
There are different camera modules
[Galaxy S III Android Development] flither:
Thanks buddy. So could be a hardware issue then, since I never had problems with stock and couple of other camera apps.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] FadeFx:
To those having non themeable quicksettings like I had, do a factory reset and you will be good ... Seems dirty flash from cm11 was not problem free.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Hubik82:
Anybody knows what that icon (marked with red) means?

I've never seen it before.

EDIT: I found it out, I've just accidentally turned off all sounds. Didn't know that it's indicated with this icon. On older android versions, especially Samsung's TiuchWizz that icon appeared when there was no connection to cellular network.

just would like to ask regarding home button... example when i'm browsing... suddenly screen goes sleep, when i press home button to wake the device.. it woke up with lock screen and after i unlock the screen, it shows me the home screen.. not the page that i'm recently at.. while sometimes it woke up without need to unlock and showing the page i'm browsing as example at but shows from top, i have to scroll back down to read..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sunny1234590:
Amazing!!!

Just flashed this rom and it works pretty well. Smooth experience with stock kernel and it is perfect for a daily driver :good::good::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Just waiting for that memory leak bug to get fixed :D:D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Apo.calypse:
Yes. I have mobile data issue. It can not turned on. Anyway to fix it?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sunny1234590:
The mobile data is working and it works flawless! Anyhow can we add widgets to lockscreen?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Apo.calypse:
im using arter97 kernel. How about you? How to download stock kernel?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sunny1234590:
Just flash the cm12 and you will be having stock kernel! cheers!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Apo.calypse:
Thank you for answering my questions.

Before i flashed with arter97 kernel. How i flash stock kernel without changing ROM?

---------- Post added at 05:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:33 AM ----------

i upgraded kernel from arter97 4.0 beta1 to arter97 4.0 beta6. After that my data started to working.

Bluetooth Issue

Hi [MENTION=535343]all[/MENTION],

Since i flashed CM12 unoffical, theres an issue with some Bluetoothdevices.

When i play Musik over my Bluetoothspeaker, sometimes it sounds very strange.

I also have an Bluetoothreceiver for my Homespeakersystem, there i have soundfreezes very often. Also i noticed that AudioFX dont working correctly.

I tried to flash Boeffla Alpha7 for some changes but it doenst work :(

I also tried to flash the official CM11 and there are no Problems with my bluetooth or sound.

Thanks for the great CM12, i love it and i dont want to flash back to KitKat ;)

Thank you also for reading my "Bugreport" :D

Greetings
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ScratMan38:
I had the same issue, caused by incompatible SMS/MMS database, I was restoring the messages from KitKat, deleting all messages solved the issue.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sanguinesaintly:
Thanks

You're not alone with Bluetooth issues - maybe someone can look at this logcat and give an opinion ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] audinswfc:
I don't have to reflash SuperSU when flashing roms, it stays just fine. I usually have to update SuperSU binary though but this was the same for me on OmniRom...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] g.andi:
Hi, i tried but no difference. So I even tried to make a clean install, full wipe, clear every cache but always the same. Every outgoing call picked up by the dialed number in call list is shown as unknown number.

After the clean install the rom runs pretty smooth. Only If i turn on the service of Tasker-App it slows down significantly. So for now i turned off the tasker service.

After installing latest version i feel super sensitive power button. I tried to push once but too many times pushed. Please fix it on next version. Also if anyone know fix this issue please share with me.

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] EP21:
It's hardware not software. Also how can the sensitivity of an off/on switch be adjusted via software. Think lamb , think, only crApple has the power to make hardware changes with software updates :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] straylight23:
my second review

When i first tried the 1st weekly of this ROM on the new to me i9300 some days ago I faced issues with Google Play Services crashing very often and serious lags with stock kernel. Using Boefflas kernel and some tweaks i managed to reduce the lag issues to some extend, but never got rid of them entirely.

I already thought that the PA Gapps were causing parts of the problems so i decided to perform another clean flash with "Weekly 2" and this time use these gapps, because i never had problems with them when using CM12 on my OPO. They are a bit outdated, but all the included Apps get updated via Playstore anyway.

First things (nearly) first: Thanks to [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4604352]Moster2[/MENTION] for working so hard making CM12 on the i9300 possible. Muchas gracias señores! :highfive:

The change of ROM version and Gapps made a huge difference! Before i had to take special care of some RAM and swap tweaking in order to achieve a sort of smooth experience. Now this is insanely smooth, fast and lagfree without any tweaking. All with stock kernel and standard settings. :good::good::good:

No more crashing of Play Services at all, very fast GPS, excellent task switching speed and the whole UI is smooth as butter. This feels like a completely new phone!

I gave it to my wife yesterday to let her play around with it a little and she was exited about how this phone feels now compared to the former 4.4 touchwiz experience.

I'll definitely postpone buying a new phone now and am exited about who things will develop with CM12 and the i9300.

Thanks so much!

Hello! I installed yesterday over last CM11 nightly and works better than expected. Battery drain is quite similar to CM11 for me.

I have just a problem.. both on stock keyboard and on Google Keyboard I can't add the microphone key for Google dictation.. the option is greyed out and tells me that "there is no voice input method enabled, check your settings".. but in settings-voice input Google advanced services are enabled.

Anyone else facing this issue?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cliffordd:
Strange, my S3 does it at random, even off the charge. I was trying to take some photographs this morning and I couldnt due to the Android Auto screen taking up the entire screen. I couldnt get rid of it without rebooting!! Does anyone know why it has suddenly started doing this and how to fix it?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] FredAnna:
Hi there,

I have von following this thread quite a while. Now I intend to upgrade to CM12 from CM11.

I don´t see a problem how to do this. What I am wondering is how to backup my data und recover properly after installation.

Until now I have been using Titanium Backup, which is not working in CM12, right?

So what app/method do you use/recommend?

FredAnna
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Caranja:
Cm12 is running in my S3 and i have no problems with Titanium.

Backup is working fine.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ChiragFTW:
Is there any way of can increase the volume of the effect_tick.ogg (touch sound) ??

The default touch sound is veryyyyy low. Any help would be appriciated.

Greeting, Chirag.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ayoubij:
If you want free of problems just backup the app with tibu and not data
[Galaxy S III Android Development] AndyGizzle:
Had a strange thing happen now. Suddenly what seems to be a splash screen for Android Auto appeared and disappeared a couple of times. First on top of another app, then that app closed and the splash screen for Android Auto appeared again. It was on screen just long enough for me to recognize that it said android auto. Immediately after the car mode status bar icon (looks like a steering wheel) flickered a few seconds before staying on. I pressed it and it disappeared..

I have never used Android Auto or car mode before, so I have no idea what just happened.

Has this happened to anyone else?

Edit: at first I thought it said android studio instead of auto. Changed the above text accordingly.

Edit2: I just saw that others are having this issue also. Anyone know what's going on and how to fix it?

Notification drawer : tiles missing

Hello all,

First i want tot say thanks for this ROM. It even keeps me from buying a new phone.

Now here's my question: I can't seem tot add a soundcontrol or an auto brightness control tile to my notification drawer. They are simply not in the list to choose from.

Am i doing something wrong?

Thanks for the reply, Fox
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Skully123:
No, it's a (new) feaute of Android Lollipop. I've this problem too. If you search on youtube you can see how it works. With Android Auto your phone integrates with your car. Pretty cool feature, but not much cars support it at this moment and if that feature starts randomly it indeed can be very annoying :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] AndyGizzle:
Do you know if there is any way to disable this feature? I can't find any references to it through Settings/Apps...

Is this perhaps an issue with cm12 and not this particular rom?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Skully123:
Titanium Backup can freeze (system) apps. Maybe that's a workaround. But I can't figure out wich app in the huge list is Android Auto.

And I don't know if it's an cm12 issue or ROM issue ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] AndyGizzle:
A thought I had when watching a few videos of Auto on youtube. It seems the phone is plugged in via USB. Could it be that the phone believes ut is docked for some reason? Someone mentioned it only happens when charging. I had a faulty charger once and when I plugged it in, the phone thought it was a docking station. I know that my connector is ... delicate.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] audinswfc:
Did you perform a full wipe before flashing cm12? If not then you will have problems...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sanguinesaintly:
The notification drawer is not yet complete - no doubt further options will come, after the devs have concentrated on the more pressing issues. Hope that helps - no, you are not doing anything wrong !
[Galaxy S III Android Development] AndyGizzle:
Hm, strange. That did not happen for me. When I booted back in after the above operation it was as if nothing had happened (ie. just like before I activated colour inversion) :)

If others who might have done the same procedure could chime in with their experience and others loose appdata I could add a warning to the steps.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ayoubij:
Wanted to ask the same.. How can i switch directly between silent and normal general. Because sometimes i go into meetings and i need just a toggle to switch between silent and sound
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sanguinesaintly:
As far as I know there is no silent mode in Lollipop. You need to read up on the new priority notification settings. It's a pain.
