ROM is fast and solid for the most part. FYI, won't allow me to change the default user photo with my personal photo under edit users. any ideas?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kookykrazee:
I tried that and the apps still crash with open camera installed. If you want to test this I am using MyFitnessPal app and click on the barcode option, which allows the app to take a pic of the bar code and then see if the information has been entered for speed up of food entries.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gradular:
Barcode scanners use video to capture the code. Video is still not functioning for most lollipop ROMs, so they won't work.

No Sim Card / APNs not accessible to user

Hello all,

Tried this rom last night, works great (except for camera of course). One other thing, like a few other users, I was unable to access the connection to Sprint. Tried to create APN from scratch, kept saying the user does not have access to APN. Grabbed APN settings file from nandroid backup and placed it in system/etc (after renaming original one) but still no go. Also keeps telling me to insert SIM card and restart (don't think this phone has one).

Any ideas? I absolutely love the way 5.0.2 runs on this phone, but it's kind of a deal breaker if I can't access voice services. Reverting back to 4.1.2 to I can get texts & voice calls....

Thanks in advance
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
Wait, your on 4.1.2? That's your problem with service. You need to update firmware to at least nd8.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nexus11:
Feb 10 2015 is up but is a test build so somethings may not be up to par. Between school work i been working on making some fixes. but as always schools first.

Note : If you get a failed to connect to wifi at start up wizard just make a sign in attempt and reboot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] FatalIll:
Changelog or anything posted? What exactly is fixed?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ClintE1956:
Stock 4.1.2 worked perfectly. Did complete wipe of all partitions before installing cm12.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BlockOfDynamite:
No that's why CM12 didn't work. You would need to update your modem to ND8 in order to use your phone on CM12

Sprint Samsung Galaxy S3 - Freedompop

1.8GHz Stable
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
You need to update youre firmware to nd8 or nj2 with Odin. Then try cm12. Most new Roms need you to be updated to at least nd8 first.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] FatalIll:
I'm still on MK5, Virgin Mobile, and I have 0 problems on CM12. SMS, MMS, Calls, Data... No problem whatsoever.

But does anyone know where the changelog for the new build is?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hilla_killa:
does anyone know if this will run on the new triband s3 for boost or vm???
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kookykrazee:
New triband for VM? I use it on my 2 year old S3 on VM with the APN fix to ensure info is working right. Only issues (haven't tested on this build but have not seen an update) are bluetooth requiring reboot if I disconnect my BT headphones and the scanner/barcode/camera/video option crashing apps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Slimegod:
Anyone have the link to the gapps to use for this
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kookykrazee:
Can try this one:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Merudo:
How is the LTE on CM12 with the S3?

I had absolutely terrible performances with LTE on CM11, and was unable to update the PRL. Have these issues been resolved?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ClintE1956:
Ok, I understand now. Rather new to the whole rom thing. duh me
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] allrockedout:
Messages keep closing
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Merudo:
I have the exact same issue. I tried flashing roms & restoring backups but nothing works.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
Have you tried a system format before restoring your backup? Make sure your backup is on external then do the advanced format option in recovery then restore the backup.

Dripped from the Tapa of my (Deathly)Liquidsmooth S3
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] I Brick Phones:
I've never heard of an AOSP based rom where you actually COULD update the PRL. Only TouchWiz based roms can.

---------- Post added at 09:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:17 AM ----------

I can't try this right now but if someone else could give it a go and let us know if anything's changed we'd appreciate it!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] FatalIll:
I've been asking for a changelog for days... :crying:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mattzeller:
Here is just building straight from CM, no mods on his part. If you want changelogs, look at CM's changelogs
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Stonebot:
Well...first ROM i've flashed ever (on S3, just bought as a temp phone from Nexus 5), seems to not be able to connect to wifi networks...

Edit: flashed the bleeding edge version just so you know

Edit2: saw a few posts before this, going to see if it fixes self on account creation and reboot
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] allrockedout:
O black screen of death at least 4 times a day on nj3 boost mobile modem and latest philz clean install.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Stonebot:
Update on this. Wifi did work after reboot. Largest problem I'm having right now is the phone is never entering deep sleep. I have ambient display enabled, and maybe that's why so I'm going to try to disable it and see if it will go into deep sleep.

I have greenify on it too, so it should be shutting down any apps that are trying to keep it awake.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] I Brick Phones:
Installed the 2/11 build yesterday and I too noticed that the wifi stopped working until reboot. Also noticed that all my saved wifi connections were gone.

Other than that, there's the issue with the camera still. Open Camera works as long as you don't try to change any settings :)

Battery life is not great but isn't unusable if you have the ability to charge the phone every once in a while.

For what it is (Android 5 on a very old phone) it works great. Glad to breathe new life into my old S3... hoping this can get me by until i decide to either buy the Nexus 6 or the new S6 :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nexus11:
Again, sorry for being so quite. I am really busy this semester. Posted an update that has the minor additions to the theme engine CM implemented
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wetbiker7:
Yep. Me either. Only stock based builds have the ability to update the profile and PRL. There are still ways to change the PRL while running an AOSP build but you'll have to use CDMA Workshop or something like that.

He must be new to CyanogenMod.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] I Brick Phones:
No worries man! If it weren't for the builds you've provided I wouldn't have cm12 on my phone at all! Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Stonebot:
Some quick questions regarding CM12

I don't get LTE on this. Is that typical with CM? I read above that you can't do profile or prl updates, so I was wondering how the radio even works.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] I Brick Phones:
LTE works. It uses the radio that's already flashed on your phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mattzeller:
Have you flashed the proper APN fix?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tatt2mike:
voicemail notifications

First off I would like to say thanks to dev and anyone else contributing. I have been using this rom for a couple of weeks with good results. I am coming from 4.3 custom rom. I had visual voicemail but that disappeared. I would like to know if anyone can help out with getting notifications back. I have tried a few apps without success. I called boost mobile and they gave me instructions on how to enable call forwarding to another number. That is as far as I have gotten.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wyelkins:
You can. There is a Boost version the APN fix that MopedRyder did. Not where I can search for it at the moment.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wizzdome:
Camera not working for me with Open Camera... When I try to zoom it freezes then I have to reboot to get back into the app. Other than that this is a great start. It looks pretty good I kind of like the new look and feel of 5.0 but I suppose It is going to take some getting used to. Real nice upload! Seriously thanks for sharing. I will say that wifi works for sure, not sure about bluetooth as I haven't been in the car and probably won't get a chance for a while. Cant speak for 4g or regular data as I do not have service anymore and have been using my phone as a VOIP phone for a while now. Got 2 points on the easter egg game... cute and frustrating all at the same time. I wish there was support for themes or some sort of custimization as I don't like the bright settings, and I really hope you can find a fix for the stock camera!!! Again thanks for sharing this it is one of the better Alpha releases I have seen in years!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
thank you good sir i has found it, but i think im gonna go back TW for now since i wasn't able to receive texts or calls but it did show signal with both Boost and Virgin Apn fixes......and there is no advanced reboot menu but i have no idea if that's even offered in the basic CM builds tho....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mholloway:
Yea ,advanced reboot isnt offered yet,at least for galaxy s3 .but for the first build this rom is working great.we just need someone to use this as a base and create a very awesome rom;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
for some strange and unknown reason i didn't work 100% for me :/ but i went back to TW and i ended up receiving like 15 texts that i should have gotten on this CM12 build....im so confused cause the MD5 sum matched and everything :/
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] counterfeit187:
Flashing APN fix wasn't needed for me, but I flashed it anyways just to follow the instructions from the opp. After that it said I was on Virgin mobile, & I had to do a full wipe to go back to sprint. After install I have to manually select the Sprint LTE internet APN. You just have to open voice dialer and say APN.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Schmidty850:
Okay if stock camera doesn't work, would downloading google camera from the play store work?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
None of the cameras work. I tried 7 different ones. We need to wait for CM to merge some stuff I think.

Found this though...

http://www.informationlord.com/cm12-note-2/
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mholloway:
I had no luck with the Google camera
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] alex_camacho:
Loving Lollipop so far. I don't use camera very much so I'm not very worried about that. What I'm having a bit of an issue with is the home/wake button. The phone won't wake from sleep when I press the button. Is there a setting I'm supposed to enable or is this not in the rom at all? I ask cause if its a setting I can't find it anywhere.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mattzeller:
It's a known issue with this release
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
I asked another dev how he got the camera to work and this is what he said:

It worked out of the box with r4p0 blobs. We're using open-source implementation.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wizzdome:
I tried the camera the OP suggested, and that did not work, however I was able to get Zoom Camera to work, I haven't used the google camera, but if it does work you might post the results so others know there is a working camera on this.

---------- Post added at 05:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:23 AM ----------

Try Zoom Camera, I have a working camera using Zoom Camera.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nexus11:
Since everything is set apart again. I have to ask the one of the other devs what inputs they use. So I don't miss on fixes or useful features. As I'm not always able to look around .
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Diarrhea Slushie:
can anyone give me the link for boost apn fix cant find it
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] russ722:
Awesome ROM ty very much for your work. I got it installed on boost galaxy s3. I have 3g data working after APN fix, is there a different fix to get the 4g late data?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mholloway:
Idont understand i didnt need the apn fix.and the google camera dont work for me either.open camera does.anyway rom running hreat so far.i also installed cpu control to change govenor and i/o scheduler.to ondemand and noop.running fast and smooth.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] leadfoot99:
I have found that Snap Cam works good, part of the time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nexus11:
"A better camera" works great.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
Just extract visual voicemail apk from the stock ROM and place it in this one.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tatt2mike:
Thank you for the quick reply. I wasn't sure if that app would work on this rom. I will give it a try. I have flashed a few roms on a few different devices but I'm definitely no expert. Just an old dog learning new tricks. Lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tatt2mike:
I found the apk, extracted and installed it in this ROM. Tested and working. Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Stonebot:
Uhhh there's an APN fix for Sprint!?

Where are the details regarding this?

Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] I Brick Phones:
I'm on sprint and didn't have to do anything at all to the APNs, data just worked immediately. Did you do a clean flash (wipe system and data/cache/dalvik cache)?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Stonebot:
Yeah, I just got the phone and the first thing I did was install this ROM. 3G is working fine, but I'm yet to see an LTE. I usually get LTE in my room at home and on my weekend travel route (where I am now), but I only have 3G.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mattzeller:
I didn't realize you're on sprint, check and make sure that your APN is correct though, and make sure that you have LTE selected as the default
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Stonebot:
I figured I'd need to select LTE as default but it does not let me. I select it and then is still shows 3G as selected.

---------- Post added at 08:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:54 PM ----------

Should APNs be blank on Sprint?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] iBlowpot:
Boot into recovery and clear cache. APNs should appear afterwards.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Stonebot:
No dice :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mattzeller:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Stonebot:
Whenever I try to enter it, it doesn't show up under APNs and seeming does nothing. I even created one with crap information that's all wrong and nothing happened.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mattzeller:
Maybe someone can make a flashable version of these APN settings much like the Boost Mobile and Virgin Mobile ones.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Stonebot:
Perhaps that's what I need? It looks like the phone is basically saying I don't have to ability to create new APN settings based on the text in the screenshot I posted earlier.

---------- Post added at 10:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:07 PM ----------

GOT IT!

I found this post here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=57394564&postcount=4

Went to phone information and changed it to LTE/CDMA auto (PRL) from just CDMA and it works now!

Edit for clarification: I didn't do anything other than change the phone setting to LTE/CDMA, no reboots or anything, it just immediately worked.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Stonebot:
Just learned the hard way that the GPS doesn't seem to keep a good lock.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
You can fix your GPS. Make a backup of this ROM first. Then restore a touchwiz backup (or flash a touchwiz ROM) then use dialer code *#0*# and tap sensors. Look in the bottom corner (the little circle) and see if it has a 3 in it. If not, waive your phone in a figure 8 until it shows a 3. Then restore your backup of this ROM.

Done.

This works for all aosp and cm Roms for which GPS becomes an issue.

:cool:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] christophocles:
This rom works beautifully. Much better than I had hoped.

I had been running CM11 M12 and had all kinds of issues -- frequent crashes and reboots (at least once daily if not more), terrible battery life, no LTE. I had working LTE on CM11 M10 _before_ upgrading to ND8 modem, but no data whatsoever on M11+ until I upgraded to ND8 modem..... Then I had NO LTE ever on _any_ build, but 3G works.

CM12 surprisingly, even though it's an "unofficial build", crashes less has somewhat improved battery life, although it IS a bit slower than CM11 was. However, the camera is a bit flaky and I still have NO LTE. The APNs menu says "Access Point Names are not available for this user" even though the user selected is "Owner". The "Preferred Network Type" has 3G selected by default, and if I change that from 3G to LTE then it just changes itself back to 3G after a few seconds. I tried flashing the Ting APN zip, which had no effect.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Stonebot:
See my post here on how to get LTE working: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=59027792&postcount=394
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Stonebot:
AWESOME! This worked, albeit, way more trouble than it should have been. Is there a way to incorporate the same GPS fix in CM12 or something that will do the same thing?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
It works for cm12 too. I did that 1 time and flashed quite a few Roms. Never had to do it again. GPS remains fixed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] floydie7:
Has anyone else had MMS inconsistently not download messages? It's not happening all the time but every now and then I'll get messages that have a "Download" button next to them which will always fail. In case it matters, I am using the stock messaging app.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Stonebot:
No problems here, but I'm using hangouts.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
Try going to app info for messenger app and clear cache then try the download of the pics again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Trigger911:
I just wanted to thank you for this rom. I have been running crombi and such for awhile do to the dock compatibility. This rom is just so fast, no fc's and no battery drain when not in use. I also love the fact you kept it like a barebones rom. Thanks for your hard work and dedication.

does this rom work on Freedompop devices
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
No, you have to have FreedomPop system apps. I think you're stuck with Touchwiz.

My ROMs: Wicked X & Wicked S5 Xperience
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DarkEnd:
Not so, I've been running this build on FreedomPop. Just needed the FreedomPop APN fix that was floating around XDA somewhere. Although I'm using Hangouts/Google Voice for texting and calls so I don't know if the FreedomPop apps would work if you just pulled them from the Touchwiz ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BlockOfDynamite:
Since FreedomPop does a BYOD thing now and has apps for those in the play store, you can use ANY ROM that those apps work on, including this one.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tronik:
Cool.

Build seems pretty solid - but not getting any LTE even after trying the LTE fix mentioned previous (*#*#4636#*#* LTE radio)

So, off to find if that FP APN fix does anything ;)

And I really want the MSL so I can get rid of the sprint proxy - youtube doesn't work on FP with that ;\
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] idealz:
Hi I'm having trouble getting freedom pop to work with my sgs3. I installed cm12, gapps, and the APN fix. I get LTE data fine. However I can't seem to get the calling to work. I installed the freedompop messaging app and I dialed through the stock dialer. After pressing the call button the screen just freezes and nothing happens. Do you remember doing anything else to get your calls to work?? Thanks in advance!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kookykrazee:
I know the dev is busy with school and such but I am curious about any updates on this build or if not this one what one you all might recommend. In the meantime of me figuring out getting a possible Tab 3 or 4 to use on FP, I am working on getting the most out of my VM S3.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
That's all I usually have to do. There are some kernels around that break GPS. Are you on the triband and using one of the rotation fixed kernels? There's one that breaks GPS.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LocoRobo:
I only flashed cm12 and PA gapps, nothing else...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Soooperstar:
I don't know if its just some phones but I dont have the tri band and I can't get it to work either using any of the suggested methods
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] I Brick Phones:
There were some major commits today for the d2 device branch related to camera fixes.

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/q/d2,n,z

[MENTION=3562682]Nexus11[/MENTION] any chance you could compile a new build for us to try out? I would but I don't have the environment set up to do it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
If Nexus11 doesnt make one ill have one compiled in about 3 hrs, i dont have the phone though so i cant test and see if the camera works before i upload it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
I don't wanna thread jack but here are some links for a newer build. Choose whatever one you'd like but I wont be uploading every build to Google Drive. You will get a certificate warning from my server but it's safe, it only shows up that way because it is self signed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Soooperstar:
Thanks I'll give it a try
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lavos635:
i had this working and had to reinstall it recently. i don't remember what build it was. now when i install it i get to the add account screen and it crashes. sorry for the noob question but does anybody know what i'm doing wrong? i dont know if i'm supposed to flash gapps and then the rom or if the gapps i'm using is wrong. i've tried a few different builds and a few different gapps. same result.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] I Brick Phones:
Thanks for building/uploading this.

I tried out the one you have on Google Drive and unfortunately the stock camera still crashes.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ClintE1956:
I had some problems after flashing this or that rom, and it seems like wiping everything via twrp advanced wipe menu helps. After that I formatted data partition then restarted back into twrp before new full flash, following the advice to reinstall supersu before the restart to regain root. From now on, I'll probably do this every time I go from custom to stock or back to custom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kookykrazee:
I will try this build out, myself. I know they are still working on the camera issues and such. I wish that this was fixed, seems deeper than previous version leadins. I know that I have several apps that use the camera/scanner, which I have been told has something to do with video processing or something which the open camera and such do not help resolve...yet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SuperGoober:
Let us know . I'm on another rom and open camera has worked fine until the last build (last night's build) and now broke so I have to wonder if these commits were merged into cm source and then broke what we had .
