my tests - weekly 5

Updated a few days ago to weekly 5.

Ad 1 - Problem is gone after updating :)

Ad 2 - Sending MMS still doesn't work. I have read on polish forums, that it is a problem in apns-conf.xml, but I looked at the settings in this file, and they are ok. Still waitnig for a solution.

Ad 3 - Problem solved - I had to change internal settings in exDialer and now it works fine.

Ad 4 - Ambient Display still doesn't notify about missed calls.

Many thanks to the developers for their great work on this ROM :good:

Weeklies are linked from the top of the OP.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] sanguinesaintly:
Not really the point. Two different releases of the same ROM should not have the same name. I think Moster2 and Arter97 should name the weeklies and/or nightlies as such.

I took a list of running process from terminal window and compared it with the running apps displayed in the APPS tab.Though google keep is closed and I have disabled wakeup,keep awake,auto start using PRIVACY setting it still appears in the running process list displayed in the terminal. any idea?

Here I'm posting the list of running process appeared in terminal window and the screenshot of my APPS tab.

Please help me to remove the unwanted process.

Edit: even I have not enabled NFC,Location services, still these 2 process are there in the list.

Bootloop after applying a theme

Guys, i have weekly 4 and after applying a theme my phone is in bootloop... How can i fix? Only wipe?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] flither:
Don't use this theme or try it again after clean flash. I had similar issue, but I left my phone at home, came back and it was dead. Nice 3 hours bootloop :D

edit: weekly 4 you say? why not weekly 5? You shouldn't report issues with outdated version, try weekly 5 and see if it fixes the issue.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] flither:
No no. I had this free RAM with weekly 2. Now I've got about the same amount of free RAM, but with enabled Zram in weekly 5. That's why I'm asking for a hint how to disable it, because in my case it's completely unneccessary, I hardly ever have any out of memory problems. (BTW I'm not using Gapps).
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DMD567:
In the nightly 19/2/15 every time I apple a theme it goes in a bootloop is it fix in the 2/21/15 nightly??

One thing i notice is the "Cast Screen" function from the top panel is not working. It says "no devices found". If I use the Chromecast App directly, everything works. Not a big deal.

Everything else seems to work fine. Will keep testing in the weekend.

Don't know if you can disable Zram with stock kernel, but you can with Boeflla kernel.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] HTCDreamOn:
Found the easiest and 100% successful way to turn off zram is to disable it completely in the kernel. No zram support = literally incapable of turning on zram at all :good:

Give the attached kernel a go, it's exactly the same as the one which comes with the ROM just with zram disabled (may have enabled some other i/o scheds and stuff, can't remember :silly: ) hope the devs don't mind but source is on GitHub so GPL stuff is all good hopefully. :victory:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] flither:
Ok, thanks, I'll flash it and see. I hope you know what you're doing ;) Wait for edit :good:

Edit 1: Ok, the phone booted, let's go to check zram files ;)

Edit 2: I searched for zram files, there's only one left - system/bin/configure zram. It still says there are 4 zram devices, with the same size as before. I'm not sure if zram is really disabled (I'm semi-noob), but there are no dedicated zram0, zram1...etc. directories anymore. How to check it to be 100% sure?

Can you help me?

Whatsapp can't back up the conversation. CyanogenMod 11 on camera after uploading it can not fix her perform. Notifications are also delayed. What is the issue?

imgur.com/OykDfJB
[Galaxy S III Android Development] HTCDreamOn:
You can use an app such as this one or the "free" command in terminal to check how much swap there is. If it's any more than you think you have (i.e. 512MB swap file, or none at all) then zram is still on. Those zram directories are probably as a result of the zram creation files already in the rom, as root in terminal emulator execute "cat /sys/block/zram0/disksize" for zram0, zram1, zram2, zram3, you should get "0" back each time.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ilnessuno4691:
But i don't understand this thing, i have zram automatically activated? for ex i have ram system 470 app 180 free 190 guys can you tell me well what is this zram please? :crying:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] FadeFx:
The google is weak in him...

Use the search next time. Zram is a compressed virtual swapdrive in physical ram, this is used to gain some space in memory.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] darksx:
It is already enabled,just relax and enjoy your S3.We have enough RAM for daily use.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] HTCDreamOn:
... and breathe ....

zram compresses some of your real ram, so it won't show any more ram in the sense that you'll be able to see the "extra ram". Trust us, it's enabled by default, and there's 600MB of it.

Seriously you "can't find nothing"? If you search zram the first result is a wikipedia page and below that are a ton of links to various linux forums as well as xda itself explaining what zram is. If you feel like telling us you still don't know, maybe this thread isn't the place to ask and you should try the Q&A threads instead.

dpi value is stored in a file called build.prop located in /system/ which gets overwritten when you flash, even dirty-flash (update) And the value is lost. So yes you need to change it again.

He mostly didn't install gapps, a ROM can run without gapps, it is usually lighter and faster but you don't get Googles stuff like "playstore"

[Galaxy S III Android Development] thearc77:
Already said by me. Use a terminal emulator and write wm density and your desired value, ie 240. This stay even wiping /system, is saved in /data.

Also some apps took that value from build.prop and in that case you must edit with something like build prop editor from Store, and reboot

due to ram management some apps (e.g. sleeprecorder or scheduled backup on titanium) don t work. sleeprecorder works for about one or two hours and then shuts down and tb doesn t start at all. is it a setting that i ve made (without noticing) or it is rom related ram management?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sunny1234590:
I won't say that it is because of ram management because i have been using titanium backup and it is working flawlessly.

One think that you can try is increasing the zram.

Install Open Camera. It has about all features that samsung camera had and even more! First one i found with 3:2 AR! (Always hated the 16:9 or 4:3 format, because the real photography AR is 3:2)

It even has great features to allow led to be on to take pictures. A dream for pictures at nightclubs, because when you use flash, it will light up all the smoke and give a grey image without background light. With torch, you will have great light! expect people should not move while taking a pic. :)

I suggest using 2 disks, 600mb and swappiness of 90 this seems to work good for me.

Here my configure_zram content:

set -e

ZRAM_DEVICES="zram0 zram1"
ZRAM_SIZE="629145600"
NUM_DEVICES="2"

for ZRAM_DEVICE in $ZRAM_DEVICES; do

echo `expr $ZRAM_SIZE \/ $NUM_DEVICES` > "/sys/block/$ZRAM_DEVICE/disksize"
mkswap "/dev/block/$ZRAM_DEVICE"
swapon "/dev/block/$ZRAM_DEVICE"
fi
done

echo 90 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness

First that's not a nice question to ask! Having 5.0.2 is already a gift of hardworking devs like moster

As if there will be 5.1, first you have to wait until it's officially out, then wait til CM update their Framework and sources, then if our dev have time, and find no issues he will update it! In the meanwhile enjoy what you have.

And BTW if it doesn't get updated no other LP rom for s3 will because all of (except for nameless) are based on this rom

Thank you for this great rom! I am using it since beta 6 and I love it! I was planning on buying a S5, but now my good old S3 is working like never before. However on weekly 5 I experience an issue that it is not possible to move apps to my external sd using the move to sd button in apps settings. It returns with an error saying that there is not enough space available, but this can't be true since I got a formatted 32 gb microSD in my phone. On the other versions this worked just fine.
