So is it safe to flash this new update on the 4/6 update or should I do a full reset?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ScOULaris:
It's safe. Just wipe dalvik/cache.

If you notice that a few Google apps are missing afterward, just re-flash your gapps zip.

Alright, Thank you.

To add to what someone said earlier about Netflix, I have noticed some occasionally choppy video playback in apps like YouTube in all of these recent builds. Usually the only thing that fixes it is backing out of the video and then relaunching it.

As far as I remember screen casting is broken. Regular Casting should work.

Camera App

Which camera app works with this ROM? I've tried like 4 or 5 and keep getting the "can;t connect to camera" message!:eek:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rdoac:
After you get one can't connect to camera, it may block all other apps which would normally work. You should reboot between each trial every time you get that unless you have an app you know works you can test with.

I use camera MX. It's been rock solid.

Post 4/10 update

After updating, (dirty flashing over 4/9) my device reboot itself maybe 15 mins after the install.

Other issues I was getting on build 4/9 getting on occasion were, the AOSP keyboard force closing on me, as well as the Messaging App will force close.

Everything else is doing just great, including the camera. :)

I'm going to clean flash, the 4/10 build to see if that fixes the reboots, I will update you guys soon.

Thanks for the hard work Matrixzone.

Sidenote: I've also noticed that for build 4/3 and build 4/9 during the install it never went to the installing Apps screen, it just stayed on the CM boot screen until the phone was completely done loading. ( The apps did get installed but no progress was shown)

Any help with the bluetooth streaming will be appreciated. Thanks.

No MMS

I can't send or receive MMS. Updated to 4/9 (dirty) first i had issues with Gapps downloaded it from the CM wiki page re-installed it in CWM got it to work. I'm also having better luck with the camera, Google camera still doesn't work but Open Camera does.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] lullcat:
I dirty flashed 4/09 on top of 4/06; forgot to flash GApps right away.

Rebooted, went back into TWRP and flashed PA GApps.

The good:

- haven't had any reboots so far;

- battery life is much better, and no more overheating;

Not so good:

- camera kinda works: I can take pictures, but once I exit camera and try to open it again - "Can't connect to camera"

(tried with Cyanogen Camera and Open Camera apps). Killing the camera app doesn't seem to help.

EDIT: I spoke too soon regarding the battery life. After verifying the camera apps work, my battery went from 100% to 0% in just 3 hours with no use. I did not notice the drain because the phone was lying on the table all that time. By the time I noticed it didn't have enough battery left even to run BBS. I believe it has been reported that the camera app can drain the battery even when in background.

horrible battery life

Hi everybody,

This is my first time with a CM rom (even unofficial) It's looks very good, but my bettery life has no sense, like 3h only with no use and screen off.

In the battery panel I have :

100% at 17h00 at 18h44 (right now) only 1h left !!!

It's a clean flash, Juice defender and Greenify are runing.

What can I do ?

Also, Is there a way to have the fast charge ?

Thnak you !

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Twitchyleftarm:
If all else fails reinstall the ROM. Could also look into Google play services. Sometimes that messes with battery life.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ScOULaris:
I am so freaking intrigued about that supposed "20% performance increase commit" that matrixzone mentioned. I know it's not currently in the latest build, but I can't help but think as to what could possibly yield that kind of improvement.

Is there some kind of layman's-term explanation as to what this future commit will be doing?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Isuress:
I know that feeling man, I'm pretty hype about it too.

Chances are, it has something to do with the profiling of the CPU or how it sets up tasks for itself. Maybe some ART improvements over Dalvik?

From what I understand, it's the new kernel which gives the performance improvements so it's very likely Linux back-end stuff that improving the performance.

Could be just code optimization. There was a poorly made algorithm somewhere or maybe a task that was getting repeated and wasted unneeded CPU cycles, it could be a ton of things really.

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

From the looks of the commits in the link above, there was a LARGE spike of activity in official development in the last 2 days compared to the whole year, lol.

Considering all the CPU related commits though, my money is on some sort of improvements to idle time CPU usage, CPU pipeline and caching process that's improving performance.

This is all speculation though. Don't take my word for it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] matrixzone:
That commits seems to be under debate. It seems theoretically that change was supposed to improve the performance but practically the difference was marginal. So until that debate is clear, I have omitted the commit.

I have been using the Slim 5.1 Normal gapps package this whole time, but I've noticed that it tends to drop some Google Apps whenever I dirty flash a new version of this ROM.

Should I switch over to Dhacker's gapps instead? And if I do after flashing the latest build, will it cause any problems due to the fact that I'd be flashing it over my Slim gapps?

I suppose I could just be extra thorough and wipe the /system partition before flashing the newest build and Dhacker's gapps.

Hi guys,

I'm back with my too short battery life (3h)

I don't know if removing juice defender did the trick but I also change the kernel to dkp kernel.

With all stock my s3 die during the night, with a full battery (all off, data, wifi, airplane mode)

Now with dkp my battery life seems to be very good (at least similar to LS KK)

Thank you very much for your great job and giving us the opportunity to play with lollipop on my not so old s3

I noticed an issue with the 4/13 build and it is in fact present in 4/9 build as well. When in power shaving mode, the app icons dont show up when you open a folder on the home screen.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cLogic:
ever since jellybean (4.1), android has been wifi-optimized which means that it uses much less battery and SHOULD be left Always On, even while sleeping

I used juice defender ultimate in the old days, and then greenpower, which worked great ... but ALL battery savers will cause more drain than savings since jb 4.1

why?

because it drains battery to turn wifi on/off, scan for networks, connect, authenticate

because apps try to sync .. some cuz they're badly written and dont add themselves to the android sync accounts for auto-sync handling

because system background services fire and test/update at various times

if wifi/data is off .. those apps and services take longer to execute because they ask for internet (which isnt there) and then have to wait for the timeout to fail

remove ALL battery savers

turn wifi to always on, optimized (kitkat), avoid poor connections

use cm user/system profiles to enable/disable sync (in general and for groups of apps) based on where you are and what you're connected to (wifi/bluetooth/nfc)

get Greenify (and xposed)

remember that there is a BIG difference between syncing data (email, feeds, etc) and receiving GCM push wakeups (messengers, alerts, etc)

ie ... twitter can notify you for accounts that you follow and set for notification ... by GCM push ... but there is no need to sync the latest tweets from all feeds until you actually look at them (so can set sync to 20 or 30mins or even longer)

Greenify is excellent for these differences .. especially if you are rooted, have xposed and have paid a donation :)
