can anyone explained to me what screen overlay i, I can't change permission
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] shaggyskunk:
An App such as Lux uses Overlays - You can White List Apps in Lux - Advanced - Sleep List.

Also - Settings - Apps - Click on the Gear top right and select - permission to Draw Over Other Apps - Select the ones you want

screen overlay dectected says to turn it off and nothing happens it wont let me add permissions to a app. I turn off screen overlay for the app and nothing happens, I turn it back on and nothing I cant change the permission. maybe I found another glitch in 6.0

What app are you trying to change permissions for - Did you Reboot after you turned Overlays off?

The test builds keep getting better. I had Bluetooth problems before, but now I am able to pair with my smart watch, and with the car's hands free. The only problem is, I get out of the car, then get back in and the Bluetooth is not connected. I have to toggle Bluetooth off and on to get it to connect again. But we're making progress! Thank you , Mr Matrixzone.

I've been randomly checking this thread for a while, and I've been thinking of making the plunge...I am currently on official cm12.1 nighlies, and am somewhat new to Android. Would anyone suggest this as a daily driver? Basically, I'm just not sure about quality between unofficial and official ROMs, though I know that's more dependent on the maintainer rather than the "brand", so to speak.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jswclw:
It's been my dd for months now. Depends on whether or not the remaining few issues are deal breakers for you.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Mydnytefantasy89:
Well I'm not too picky, I've always been an "experimental" type guy when it came to my systems. Living on the edge I guess? Lol basically, so long as I can call/text, play my music via Bluetooth is important. I've noticed a lot of people worry about camera quality, but there are apps for that. Is cm file manager still broken? I use ES anyway, just curious how that's going now that cm has official 13 builds rolling out.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BZJoe:
I've been using the built in FM without problems for basic copy/paste/move. Not sure what issues existed but I have not encountered them. Bluetooth is giving me issues though. Although it may be better to wait for the next build, the more people using the current build and giving feedback, the sooner things will be ironed out...

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Mydnytefantasy89:
That's good to know. All Bluetooth audio, or just calls? I've seen it go back and forth a few times, and I'm just concerned with music playback, since I don't use a Bluetooth headset for calls except for maybe a couple times a year lol I do have a problem with knowing how to report bugs. I know logcats are needed, but I don't know how to obtain them, and I used Xposed, which I know a lot of maintainers hate dealing with.

If the battery is not charging is that a rom problem, cause my battery wont charge has not gotting over 20% on charger all day
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kereno:
I would suggest that you try another build. I've been using the one month old one (veryyyy stable!) and I have not had any battery issues whatsoever. If the problem persists, I would consider buying a new battery if I was you, particularly if you still have the original one in your phone. Batteries can be picky at the end of their life. I have personally changed mine after 3 years of use. Anker batteries have not failed me so far: get the 3.8V, 2200mAh, 8.36Wh for Samsung Galaxy SIII I9300.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] chill4279:
When that happened to me about a year ago, I had tried 2 replacement batteries and the phone still would not charge past 20-25%. I was going nuts....turned out it was my charger...got a new Samsung charger and charged to 100% again under about 2 hours..good as new.. I would have never guessed it was the charger itself would go bad.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kereno:
Indeed. Both the charger and the battery are potential issues in this case.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jfarrah:
Tried different charger as someone said not working just won't charge not the ROM downgraded to 12.1 and still won't get above 20%

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kereno:
Have you tried changing the battery? I am curious about the fact that your battery might have "suddenly" failed.

I'm not sure if I can post links, but here is one explanation:

"During charge, lithium gravitates to the graphite anode (negative electrode) and the voltage potential changes. Removing the lithium again during discharge does not reset the battery fully. A film consisting of lithium atoms forms on the surface of the anode called solid electrolyte interface (SEI). Composed of lithium oxide and lithium carbonate, the SEI layer grows as the battery cycles. The film gets thicker and eventually forms a barrier that obstructs interaction with graphite." Ref. BatteryUniversity - What causes Lithium-ion to die?

I don't see Android Device Manager anywhere in the settings. It was under the Security settings in 12.1 I think. Is this feature being left out of the builds and is it on the list to be included at some point?

I have AT&T Galaxy S3 which I haven't been used for long time.

I need this one for stolen S5 yesterday(It's been hectic to report credit card companies, DMV, etc). Wonder if I can flash this rom, and can switch back and forth from rooted and unrooted?

I saw http://galaxys3root.com/galaxy-s3-roms/cm13-rom-for-galaxy-s3-android-6-0-1/ which I believe I can turn root on and off because I want to use Android Pay

I have been reading for about an hour, I don't seem to find the installation guide on this.

So would you direct me where I can get the install steps or give me the brief installation guide for beginner.

I'm currently in 4.4.2 rooted (I747UCUFNJ1, Kernel 3.4.0-1514807) Build KOT49H.i747UCUFNJ1.

Let me know if there more info needed.

Thank you,

Sparky.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] yiazmaty:
I'd definitely go for this one over that other one. The other one is a Tmobile ROM edited to install on the AT&T S3. More importantly, matrixzone is actively developing this ROM. I don't know about that other one.

You should be able to just install TWRP recovery (there are apps that can do this on the play store).

Then download the ROM and Google Apps (ARM, 6.0, and pick whichever one you want based on what Gapps you want). Save these to your SD card.

- Turn off your phone.

- Hold Menu, Volume Up, and Power buttons until you see "booting recovery" or similar in top right.

- Go to Wipe. Go to Advanced Wipe. Wipe Dalvik, System, Data, Cache. Return to TWRP home screen.

- Press install. Navigate to the ROM you downloaded and press it. Press Add more Zips.

- Navigate to the GApps you downloaded and press it. Swipe to confirm and flash your files.

- When it's finished, you can wipe Cache/Dalvik (it'll be an option on that screen).

- Reboot.

Would you tell menhow to install Gapps? Downloaded micro or pico, it complaints that installation aborted right when trying by adding more zips right after flashing the rom. Maybe something wrong in my process?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jswclw:
I'll assume you're using the OpenGApps as recommended by the OP. Be sure you are selecting the ARM (not ARM64) platform, and 6.0 Android, then pick your variant and it should not be a problem. Personally, I have used Stock, Full, and Aroma variants successfully.

Hi Matrix. Thanks for keeping this phone alive.

Tried most recent test build (Jan 18) because of issues with BlueTooth Installed doing are full wipe and TWRP 2.8.7.0

Phone

Model - T999V

Baseband - T999VVLUFNH4

Bluetooth

- Nothing on external unit (BlueAnt).

- Calls: Low volume, can't adjust volume on phone, and phone resets trying to hang up.

- Phone did not receive incoming call then reset. After reset indicates missed call. With bluetooth off, no ring tone at all

Display

- Installed Sensor Multitool: light sensor reads zero

I may have to revert soon in order to get more stable operation.

Will also donate again soon as well.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MJPollard:
I don't think it would be worthwhile, as the international (i9300) and US AT&T (d2att) SGS3 are different beasts. The i9300 uses Samsung's Exynos chipset, while the d2att and other US devices use a Qualcomm chipset. Totally incompatible.

Did you read the modem/bootloader notes carefully? NJ1 said you had to be on NE4 prior to flashing...and you said you were on MJB....so there's your issue.

Fantastic work on this rom!

I have a question/request:

There appears to be no way to change widget settings without removing the widget and replacing it (I'm referring specifically to the clock/weather widget).

Finally got to install and try it. Seems like the light sensor is still not there. I also tried installing to files in the sensors.zip into system/lib but it killed my previous install. That led me to do this update, but now I'm afraid to repeat the failure.

Google Camera no longer works. I cannot get past the initial intro screen where it shows how you swipe left or right to switch between photo and video modes. It dies when switching to video mode and you cannot get past the little training exercise that it insists on starting with.

The new SnapCamera seems to take the picture, but crashes if your try to preview it.

Keep in mind, this is all after a dirty flash. I only wiped the cache, dalvik cache, and system partitions. I did not wipe data. Based on what others report, I may have to do a full wipe, but I wait and see.

Update: Clean flashed the latest test build (01/28) and light sensor is not working. (I have a i747M)

Did a clean flash of the 1/28 test build. Looks like Bluetooth connects automatically now (don't have to toggle it off and on every time)! But now I have to toggle Airplane Mode to get the mobile data to come on. Didn't copy in the light sensor driver file but it looks like there could be some light sensitivity: I put my finger over the light sensor and the screen seemed to dim a bit. The log shows a lot of LightSensor errors: LightSensor unknown event (type=2, code=9) (or code=2, or 1, or 0).

One other problem that is probably not ROM related, though. For the last couple of days GMail FCs on me all the time. I tried reflashing gapps and that fixed it for a short time, but now it's FCing again. Reflashing gapps doesn't fix it now. Very frustrating.
