Problem upgrading to latest nightly

I'm currently using nameless-5.0.2-20150118-i9300 with boeffla-kernel-3.0-alpha10-CM12.0-NG-i9300

It works great!

However, today I tried to update to the latest nightly (nameless-5.0.2-20150313-i9300-NIGHTLY.zip) and I got stuck on boot. I waited for over half an hour in the bubbles screen.

I'm using the same recovery I used to flash Nameless 20150118 (CWM 6.0.4.6)

BTW, I tried to flash a few times, with the same results. I even tried wiping the cache before flashing, but had no luck.

I ended up giving up and reverting to a nandroid backup I made before trying to update.

Does anyone know how I can update to the latest nightly without wiping data?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reaperdevO7:
There was an update in the source code (from 5.0 to 5.0.2). So I think.. formating /system is must. And use Philiz Recovery. This worked fine for me.

hey guys again

about WI-Fi Direct

it doesn't work for me i can't send or receive anything also i can't rename my device

did anyone encountered such a bug?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Estebanlag:
I tried your suggestion but it didn't work.

I flashed Philz recovery 6.48.4 (which is awesome, BTW). Then I formatted /system, /cache and dalvik-cache, and then I flashed nameless-5.0.2-20150313-i9300-NIGHTLY.zip

I'm stuck on the boot screen again (bubbles for over half an hour).

Any other ideas to upgrade to the latest nightly without wiping data ? Thanks!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reaperdevO7:
You wiped out everything, right? /System, /Cache, /DalvikCache, /Data, Full factory Reset(includes internal memory)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Estebanlag:
Well no; I'm trying to update to the latest nightly without wiping /data or doing a factory reset.

I don't want to have to configure everything again every time I update to the latest nightly.

I did however wipe /system, /cache, and Dalvik Cache before installing nameless-5.0.2-20150313-i9300-NIGHTLY.zip

The first post mentions that should be possible; it's just not working for me:

bugs that occured to me

I was using this rom for 3-4 days and everything is super nice, one of the best s3 roms of all time! Nevertheless i found something annoying:

1) i dont know why, because i didnt see any tendencies, but it freezes sometimes.. Im using latest twrp for flashing. Im running latest version (3-13), stock kernel. :)

2) stock music player crashes while listening to music. And alsobstock browser crashes sometimes.. Maybe some ram issues?

3) almost every time i press home it seems that launcher is not in memory, it redraws home screen

4) sometimes cant connect to camera while using snapchat or stock camera app. Only restart fixes it

Thanks you for help :)

Noticed such bugs:

2) Camera app sometimes crashes. With message like "unable to connect to the camera". Although it mostly works.

3) Screen Recording app crashes almost every time after record stopped. MP4 file can't be played back.

4) After rebooting regularly appears message "in the Music app error has occurred".

I've resized the bootanimation to fit GT I9300's resolution, all you need to do is use something like root browser and go to system/media and replace the original bootanimation.zip there, remember to change the permissions to (rw-r-r) and the ownership to owner: root Group: root or it won't work.

Notification drawer from Lock screen

Hi all,

first of all thanks for all Nameless ROM folks, it's fast, light and stable!

I, however, remember the option to access the notification drawer from the lockscreen (w/o unlocking) in settings, and I don't currently find it!

Does anybody know if it was removed or I am making something wrong?

Many thanks!

Nighties are GOOD :)

Most of the things seem to work fine in this feature-bundled ROM. Missing one thing.(I know that it is not ethical to ask a developer about it, just being nerd)

XPOSED has become a essential part of almost every 'nerd'. Been missing this feature in NAMELESS for a while(Whenever I flash xposedarm.zip file, every function of ROM force closes, to be precise-UNUSABLE mobile).

Used others lollipop ROMs flawlessly with XPOSED.(But I am kind of addicted to the Smoothness of Nameless ROM, that is why I am sticking to it)

Is there any chance that Nameless will add framework support to XPOSED anytime in future? [MENTION=2875964]dhiru1602[/MENTION]

Hey U may flash the zip manually. It is stored in internal memory and you have to delete the update .zip to eliminate that "Update Available" notification.

Boot loop,doesnt load recovery, but goes into dl mode - NEED SOME HELP guys

I would truly appreciate some guidance here!

Some details:

I use a Samsung GT i9300 International Version, rooted and had flashed Nameless Rom based on Android 5.0.

Flashed TWRP or Philz Touchwiz CWM recovery (I dont really remember now)

The phone worked fine until recently when the battery started behaving bad!

(Small story short : On a vacation, my 1.8 Amp charger broke, and my phone crashed saying "Do a factory reset since the encryption during a restart failed". Forcefully, had to factory reset and my battery has been draining like mad ever since) Even when on wifi, the rate of draining was faster than the rate of charging on a 1A charger)

I was previously on a Slimkat Rom then.

I decided to flash Nameless Rom to see if the behavior changed.

The Rom was smooth but the charging issue persisted. I decided to buy a 2.1 A charger but one fine morning after an overnight charge, the phone didn't boot up. I assumed that the charge wasn't enough and I let it charge a bit longer. After several attempts, it booted up all of a sudden.

I believe this was a significant warning/indication of something possibly wrong but I didnt bother to really investigate.

Then came the surprise a couple of mornings later. The phone went into a boot loop displaying the WHITE Samsung logo with GT-I9300.

Tried booting into recovery, but it just doesnt load into recovery with the usual Volume Up combination.

However, download mode comes up with the Volume Down combination. So I was happy in a way that it wasnt hard bricked just yet!

Read somewhere in the forum asking someone with a similar issue to flash recovery alone from which i could wipe cache and dalvik and try rebooting - So I downloaded TWRP latest version and flashed, but Odin failed to flash - Got a FAIL message and on repeated trying, got no response sometimes.

Tried flashing Philz CWM, but failed again. Also tried flashing the Stock recovery too, but it just didnt pass!

Doesnt flash the recovery in whatever way I tried.

Now, I did read that flashing the stock firmware of GT - I9300 Intl version is the option I have left (approx 900 MB).

Will this flash the stock rom and reset the root?

Is there something that I have missed out on? Or I need to try something else before I try flashing stock firmware?

I need some pointers now guys, help me out!
