YouTube has been working since around November of last year...

Has a new issue resurfaced? I haven't been affected.

EDIT: Nevermind. I just updated. Changing the quality to 720p fixes the issue, and I think 480p fixes it too.

Are you using the AOSP keyboard or the google keyboard. The AOSP (the one that comes installed) hasn't worked with gesture typing for many iterations of CM.

Hi!

Now I confirm that google camera works fine on latest cm build on my S3.

But there's another bug - GPS not working (no sattelites found in any app). Does anyone know how to fix this or when it will be fixed in CM12?

BTW, service mode codes where disabled in cm?

BR, akadimka

New build hype!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eatkabab:
So I was on CM11, tried to flash 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...

Thinking that this might be one of those 'you can flash up but can't flash back' type things, I realized the current booader and modem I have on there is compatible with the Lollipop ROM's, I attempted to flash the latest CM12 from the OP.

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 8min now for it to boot...all I see is the CM man with the evil eyes and "Samsung Galaxy SIII" above him. I'm not sure it's going to boot. Help greatly appreciated.

UPDATE:

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. I used the one from the other CM12 thread found here: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3-att/orig-development/rom-cm12-d2att-alpha-builds-t2959561

Seems to have worked

UPDATE 2:

Working beautifully! :D

Getting B/W chopped up YouTube video.

Google Camera and other camera apps seem to work for a picture or two but crash very often and video seems to be a no go at all.

Any fixes for this? Camera is more important. I don't need YouTube... Thanks for everything regardless.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] VGMC0001:
Try changing your resolution to 720p to fix youtube. That worked for me. The Camera fix should be in todays build.(when it gets uploaded)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tazmanian200:
thats true, it is cheaper but slower but a viable alternative. it just worked better for me because speed was a factor and computers are so cheap and if one computer craps out, u always have a backup.

Anyone try it out yet? Flashes okay?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] VGMC0001:
Yup, flashes ok.

Tried the camera first thing, taking pics was good, switched to video then tried taking a video and it crashed. Rebooted and tried again. It worked this time, instead of trying to take a video as soon the app opened, I waited a couple of seconds for things to settle, and it worked fine and every time since.

Everything else is great, well, except for the difficulty trying to connect to wifi, but that is an already known issue, the last issue that I can see.

Great work matrixzone

Edit: The Google Camera is still glitchy, I've had a few force closes. Ive found that using OS MOnitor, to kill the camera process worked, after that but only until I closed the app, re-opening would not work.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] matrixzone:
OP updated with 03/06 Update. Major Change - Working Google Camera with Picture and Video. Important Note - Let the phone settle down for approximately 5-10 minutes before you try Google Camera

Whats wrong with the wifi and does snapchat video work also?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jswclw:
Installed flawlessly. Did a clean flash. Even went back to a Touchwiz ROM first in hopes of cleaning up this LTE problem for once and for all. Still installing all the apps right now. Letting it do so from the playstore versus my backup. Really want it as clean as possible - again hoping to be over the LTE problem. One thing I did notice for the first time is the last several builds, Wi-Fi conneted properly durring the first-boot/initialization process.

Will report back after apps are all installed and some testing done.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Boutchilatouffe:
Nice work! I dirty flashed (cleared dalvik cache, cache and system. Flash rom then gapps), even though it clearly said not to...lol.... but everything is working great. Wifi all good, google camera (from playstore) works including videos and youtube is working fine again. I did get a few Can't connect to camera at first, cause I was impatient, but after 10 minutes or so I tried again (without having to reboot) and it works great, everytime.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eatkabab:
Came from a recent hard brick so everything is 100% fresh. Just flashed the newest one after wiping everything again. Allowed to install apps from the play store on it's own. Not too many apps anyways, 15 only and most of those google apps.

Wifi, youtube, LTE, all work flawlessly. The camera does not work. I tried about a dozen apps. I can see the viewfinder, but am unable to take a pic. It freezes. I can't even get so far as to switch to video to try that. Tried letting it settle for ~15min before attempting as well.

Regardless this is an excellent port to this old phone. If it wasn't for the atrocious battery life, I wouldn't have any issues using it as my main phone. Even without the camera.

UPDATE: Even just tapping to focus freezes any camera app
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jswclw:
Issue with LTE is still present. After reboot, or toggle of Airplane mode, LTE does not come back until I toggle it on the quick settings.

Google camera did not work at first. Not sure how long I gave it. After second reboot, Google Camera worked, at least show the view. I accidently touched the screen, as if I wanted it to focus, and that caused the camera to go unavailable again. Rebooted again. Cannot connect to camera, again. Waiting for it to settle now. Pulled battery, rebooted. Camera opened, but still couldn't take a picture. I'll just give it a rest for now. Try later after it is VERY settled.

App Drawer in Launcher3 had very choppy animation. Made my head hurt. Fortunately, I don't use it after the intial setup. App drawer in GEL does not have the same problem. The issue may not even be new, just something I noticed this time.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sugarkryptonite:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Boutchilatouffe:
I have a i747M also and google camera from the playstore works. The Camera app that is with the rom is glitchy for me but I prefer the playsotre one anyways so i`m happy.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eatkabab:
YES!! Exactly how mine is responding! I got instagram to take ONE picture once but after that, nothing would work again. Tried rebooting and attempted instagram video, complete failure. Still going through a multitude of camera apps to see if any will work. Every crash required a restart to get possibly going again but everything is a no-go. I wait a solid 10min between restarts to attempt anything or even unlocking the phone to try an app.

What is the "wifi issue"?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] VGMC0001:
Whenever I try to connect to any WiFi network. I get an error " failed to connect to network ". Sometimes it will connect after a few tries, sometimes not. Sometimes it'll connect randomly and sometimes drop randomly.

I've had this issue for quite a while, and thought I read an earlier post saying that the WiFi issue was known. So I was quietly waiting for a fix.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TimeAndroid:
Me too! I thought I just screwed up the WiFi somehow.

Any way to mitigate the ~10% batt drop/hr issue?

Sorry to ask. I know it's a well known issue for this phone. Been battling it since the beginning. Some flashes seem to be good, others aren't. Just wondering if there is any specific issue that was found and can be repaired. This is the first I've returned to this phone after a year...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tccool:
Google Camera working fine in the latest build for me. Took lots of outdoor shots and all turned out well without crashing. Took a panorama too. Didn't try video. Tap to focus will eventually crash the camera. In-app cameras don't crash the camera anymore, show a picture, but will sometimes not take a picture or occasionally crash.

Verdict: The camera is working better, but it's still not bug free.

-My battery is also really bad. I'm pretty sure it's my phone's battery itself, but it drains super quickly, using it or not.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] WitnessG:
What recovery do you guys use? I'm currently using Philz touch recovery 6.48.4 but it has problems with these builds/lollipop builds in general. Randomly when I'm trying to dirty flash and update or restore a previous backup of CM12, the phone reboots midway. Obviously it sends my phone into a boot loop and causes problems when it reboots mid restore/flash. I'm using Philz because it allows me to flash d2att builds on my d2tmo without having to change the build.prop or anything.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Boutchilatouffe:
I solved my battery issue a while back doing this: http://xdaforums.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-google-play-services-battery-t2832525

Also, it seems that battery starts to drain quicker after you used the camera. 5ry rebooting your phones and not open any camera app to check if you see any change. I noticed this in 04 update where my battery drained 50% in a few hours without use. Rebooted and the battery stat graph went in a straight line when not in use

first off thanks so much for your time on this rom! i just loaded it on my mothers phone, everything is good for her except that wifi bug im now reading about.

thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bjgrenke:
New build is very smooth, thanks!!

Camera still isn't working for me however. Google Camera crashes after I take a picture, and the stock camera app doesn't do anything when I press the capture button. The only thing that seems to have changed with the camera is that video recording now works in Snapchat, which is nice.

Also, I'm wondering if anyone has a solution to an issue I've been having for as long as I remember with Snapchat. The front camera on the latest version gives a distorted image, and appears to be in the wrong aspect ratio. I've been using an older version of Snapchat since the front camera works fine in older versions for some reason. I have Googled the issue and didn't find a lot in terms of solutions. Has anyone had this problem and know how to solve it?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] s.vivekananda007:
Thanks for the build.

I am facing network switch issue. I am not able to switch to 3g or LTE. It immediately switches back to 2g. Guys please confirm if I am the only one facing this.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Nico3d3:
Snap Camera still work, but it still have a few glitches, Google Camera does have glitches too. Nexus camera from the PlayStore works great but it won't save to sd card. For now, Open Camera is working great for me (poor ergonomic but anyway...). Ayone tried to install the Camera app from CM11 KitKat?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jswclw:
I am experiencing a similar problem. to get it on LTE I have to toggle the LTE quick setting 2 or 4 times, allowing it to settle each time. then it will hold the LTE until a reboot, or using airplane mode. LTE usually does come back after use of WiFi.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] $avage$3:
Did a clean flash and I have zero problems other than the camera, I have used camera zoom fx for nearly every ROM and it seems like a good alt for me. As for wifi issues, I've never ran into wifi bugs except for sometimes when fresh installing a ROM (Not only this ROM), I will have to connect to wifi in the initial setup I have to enter my password and hit ok, then it goes back to available networks, put in my password again and its always fine the second attempt.

Nice build matrixzone.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tccool:
Here is what I have experienced:

FIXED ISSUES/ADDED CONTENT IN DEC. 15/2014 LOLLIPOP 5.0.1 BUILD:

Home button unlocking

YouTube and Netflix app (unsure about Netflix)

Some camera stability

Added CM features (button options etc.) (well, atleast added compared to my last Lollipop build)

More material-ized stock apps

More built in CM apps

It's 5.0.1 compared to my last ROM which was 5.0.

ISSUES STILL PROMINENT:

Snapchat video doesn't work.

Snapchat front camera is crunched up. (This happened in CM11 Milestones and Nightlies too.)

Instagram videos may not upload properly.

Camera is still very buggy. Video recording doesn't work at all. Stock camera app doesn't save pictures.

Apps like Open Camera and A Better Camera crash the camera when trying to focus. Very annoying bug. I would like to see a camera APK that doesn't have this issue.

Google Camera doesn't even launch to a preview. It just says "Cannot connect to camera" even after a fresh reboot. Camera will work in other apps like A Better Camera, Camera FX, or Open Camera

Stock launcher constantly refreshes and restarts. Using something like Nova Launcher will fix this.

This is what I have experienced. Any help would be appreciated.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] matrixzone:
Thanks for the detailed feedback. CM has recently made good amount of merges for Netflix and Youtube to work. Camera will be next for sure. Camera is buggy even on CM11 nightlies.

Have you tied Camera FX? Zoom works with this App

I think the CM12 builds has now moved into the Beta stage from the Alpha. The last thing which will be fixed would be the Camera and we will have the official nightlies

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] slickdexic:
Does this update fix the 64GB EXFAT issue? Every Lollipop ROM I have tried so far does not see my SDCARD.

It's the only thing keeping me from using LP daily. Camera hasn't been much of an issue with previous LP builds.

I use "A Better Camera" and it seems to work well. Haven't tried to shoot video though.

I just installed and my SDCARD is detected and working great.

Great news for me.

Thanks for the great ROM!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ominousnimbus:
Loving this aside from the iffy signal and frequent lack of LTE (AT&T).

There is a bug that's been present on every LP ROM I've tried thus far: MMS does not send or receive in third-party apps like Google Messenger. However, I discovered this morning that it does work in Hangouts, which allows the user to specify an APN within the app. It's almost like the APN settings from the main system menu aren't sticking... maybe?

This bug has been a constant source of frustration for me on this phone dating back to various CM11 nightlies. If it helps, I recall MMS issues popped up around the CM11 9/12 nightly and a successful fix was applied about a week later. (However, the behavior then was slightly different in that the bug was only when connected to WiFi... on this build MMS is kaput no matter what in Messenger).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Holmes108:
MMS works well for me in GO SMS. I also haven't noticed any issues with signal or LTE, although I know you're not the only person to mention it. That being said, I'm in Canada, so I don't know if that (ie: the APN) is making the difference with those issues.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xxrafasxx:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] $avage$3:
I recently had ALL KINDS of issues with Gapps. I am running another ROM and it seemed like I came up with every possible glitch there was, I used numerous Gapps packages and every one had some kind of FC or install errors. I never heard or seen anyone else having Gapps issues and I may be posting in the wrong place, but I figured with a post like this one is a good place.

I run three different Roms ....CyanideL,.BrokenOs,& CM12, I have NO issues on two of them and nothing but issues on the third(NO NAMES,LOL). All Roms I run are 5.0.2 and I cant figure out for the life of me what the problem is. Seems like I can maneuver around and clear data and cache in the playstore and its fixed for a moment then upon next play store install I get an installation failure. When these issues come up and I reboot I get system ui crashes,and all kinds of google FC , NONE of this happens in CM12.

Any input?

On a side note, now that I've got your attention, I know I've asked before and maybe you didn't see it but, any chance you can add d2mtr to the update script pretty please?

Edit: Just tried installing PA gapps after a clean flash and it still didn't work. It says:

Edit 2: After looking around in some forums I may have found the cause of the problem. It's CWM 6.0.4.7 thats what I'm using as my recovery.

"That specific version has a known bug in it that prevents certain zips from getting installed. CWM is no longer maintained, so if you can't install a newer version for your phone, switch to TWRP."

Edit 3: Changed my recovery from CWM to TWRP and was able to successfully install PA Gapps
