The camera needs to be fixed. The camera may work, but it isn't stable. You can't do certain things (focus, switching to rear or front camera, turning on flash) without the app/camera freezing which leads to restarting the phone which is annoying. Is there any info you have about this issue?

Bluetooth in car problem?

Has anyone else had trouble connecting their phone using bluetooth to their car? I have a 2013 Mercedes c250 and the car doesn't see my phone, but my phone sees the car showing up as a MAC Address. When I press it the phone can't connect to the car. I tried switching to Cyanide L but it's the same issue. Does anyone have a fix?

Thanks in advance!

Camera Alternatives

First off, thanks for your work. Overall, I have had very few bugs other than the obvious camera issue. Just curious, are there any working alternative cameras out or a quick fix for that? Also, the messaging app won't send messages, which isn't a huge issue because I use Evolve SMS, but I just wanted to report that to contribute. To explain the issue better, the arrow button to send the message does not display itself as usable (not highlighted, and when you press it, no animation or response).

Thanks again for the work though.

Hi there. I need help. I updated my Rogers Samsung gs3 to cm12. I was running 4.4.4 beforehand and everything ram fine.

I have followed the steps laid out to updates the base band however I sm getting error status 7. The baseband is I747MVLDLK4. Android ver 5.0.2. Model Samsung sgh-i747 CyanogenMod ver 12 unofficial d2att .

I have no cell services. When I down loaded VLUFNF2 for rogers and I tried to flash it in recovery cwm, it just said error 7.

What do I do. This is my only phone. Also gapps wouldn't update so I'm downloading from paranoid android 5.0

Thank you.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eatkabab:
So I was on CM11, tried to flash this CM12, waited 20min on boot screen, wouldn't boot. Attempted to Odin back to stock 4.4 and accidentally probably flashed an i747M since stock 4.4 doesn't exist for i747. Hard bricked, debricked, currently able to boot into TWRP 2.8 and download mode fine. Was able to successfully install:

d2att_I747UCUFNE4_bootloader_modem_4.4.2_7-29-14.zip

and

I747UCUFNE4_ModemBaseband.zip

But unable to flash the appropriate CM11 or I747UCUFNE4_Stock_Rooted_Odex.zip. I get the following error with both: E: Error executing updater binary in zip...

Is this one of those things where you can flash up but can't flash back? Like once you go to 4.4 you can't go back to 4.3? Is that why I'm getting this error?

UPDATE:

Given that the bootloader and modem I currently have on there is compatible with the Lollipop ROM's, I attempted to flash the latest CM12 from here: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3-att/development/unofficial-cyanogenmod-12-t2968854

It successfully flashed so I went ahead and flashed the appropriate Gapps and recommended SU update, wiping cache and delvik between zip files. All went through fine. I've been waiting about 5min now for it to boot...all I see is the CM man with the evil eyes and "Samsung Galaxy SIII" above him. Help greatly appreciated.

UPDATE2:

Waited about 12min, nothing happened, held power till turned off, ejected microSD, booted into TWRP, wiped cache and delvik again, factory reset, reboot and WOW! It worked! "Android is updating... installing app XX of 105"

PS:

The link to the GAPPS is broken on the more up to date 5.0.2 page by matrixzone. I used the GAPPS file found on this thread and it seems to have worked.

UPDATE 3:

Working beautifully! :D

Does a different camera app work from the play store?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Rutilant:
Flashed clean.

Issues so far:

Can't set right timezone by network

Camera doesn't work (can cause reboots in some apps)

Home button doesn't wake

Root doesn't work

USB mounting/the like doesn't work

Certain text/buttons flicker during animations across the whole system

Also wouldn't flash in twrp for me (possibly cause I have d2can tho I've always had issues with twrp) so I used cwm.

The only thing not working for me is gesture typing on the default keyboard, and of course stock camera.

Other than that I'd be inclined to say this is noticeably more responsive than cm11.

I installed the beta PA 5.0 micro gapps and everything is perfect.

I did have a small scare while attempting to flash. For some reason my phone shut off while in twrp, and it corrupted. Had to reflash twrp via Odin and all is well.

I'm on ne4 BL and modem, and will continue to test. I would definitely say this is already daily driver material. Thanks!

Probably, but don't do a factory reset since that will use ext4.

Right now when it installs it seems to format system as ext4 and I can't figure out how to make it go f2fs. So you will have to get it installed, then back up, then format, then restore and then convert.

It does not have a format command in it. It uses block_image_update which seems to automatically format to ext4.

There are some dialer settings tou can google. I havent had anything but lte signal. When i started it was an "e" but i changed some setting to automatic and it instantly got lte. It was where you used to go to carrier unlock with this menu. Cant tell you now what they were because you have to be on touchwiz to get it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RoryB:
So block_image_update does put the image on to our partition with the same format as the image. That is why there is no format in the updater-script.

I found on other devices they are having to create separate zip files that can support f2fs. From what I can tell they are using the old zip format and pulling the system out of the file. This appears to create a ROM zip that is like the old ones that could be flashed on to et4 or f2fs.

On a clean flash of this, when I go in wifi and hold down on a wifi network and press modify then check/uncheck advanced options, it doesn't stick.
