Try beta 4, it's nigh on perfect for me. I'm also on three and have no issue with connecting to the network. I moved from xtreme and in my humble opinion it is much better.

Could you please share settings from ViperFX? I tried using Viper4Android but the results are non existent. The ROM overall is good, but sound coming out from the phone is like having a problematic speaker.

I believe this is the next thing you guys should fix!
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] cert88:
These are probably different serial numbers. I checked a non Jiayu android phone.

The firmware I saw this on was stock S3SW 20150314 (Had to restore it for a short time and realized this.)

Now flashing back beta 5. Will see.

If stock S3 had this value then I don't care. I thought I lost it by messing with NVRAM.

Yes, on 5.1.1 beta 5 it is not 01234... anymore. Interesting.

I have battery drop too since the first LL and counting. Cleaning battery stats doesn't do anything
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] genesisalgor:
This

I guess the drop is more related to a wrong showing of % than a litheral drop of 20% of energy to 0.

I guess when the phone drop of 20% to 0 in less than a minute, that 20% is in true 1% (?)

Just my 2 cents.

Somebody said he solved the bug by doing the following:

1. Flashing normally using sp flash tool

2. Flashing again the same rom using SD card update

I was on a concert and had about 34% battery. Did exactly 2 photos and 3 videos (longest was 3 mins approximately). Did not check how much battery was left but the whole event was about 2 hours.

After the end we went to a pub and I wanted to check the videos but the phone was turned off. So I guess it was the battery bug. I've moved to beta 4 from beta 3 because the sound improvement but when I was on beta 3 I had about 1 hour SOT at 15 - 4% battery.

On stock KK 20150314 s3sw I had 8 - 0% battery drop bug.

PS Charged the phone to 10% and after 3 YouTube song videos plus some browsing it dropped to 9%. Still no drain and counting. I really think it has something to do with the deep sleep.

One of things I really don't like about Lollipop, and prefer in KitKat is the screen auto brightness. It's crap in Lollipop. It's always too dark.

For those who don't already know about it, this app will give you full control to customise the auto brightness to how you want it:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.velis.auto.brightness

Also you can use the app below to separate the ringer and notification volumes:

I believe so.. But it's like the phone has to use to to the Wi-Fi, 3g gaming and all just to work a bit like lubrication, now is great.. Battery is also very good 6,5 hours on screen, before that I had zenfone 5-great phone terrible battery 2.5 hours on screen. So one day whit very heavy usage and still 25-30 % in the end..

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Paradelle:
So I've had my S3 for a few days now and I thought I'd write a quick review.

Firstly, it's been great to find an active thread, and to find the roms on needarom. Thanks guys.

So. The phone. I'll start by saying this is all relative to how you use your phone. For example, I don't play games on my phone so can't comment on that side of it. I have to say though I've been hugely impressed. It's really nice to hold, and definitely takes its looks from Apple. It has an Iphone feel to it. It's also pretty well put together. It doesn't feel like a cheap phone. I'm running the JY-S3 Stock Moded System and it's suburb. The phone is really very quick, even on kitkat (which I don't think makes full use of the 64bit processor though I may be wrong.) I have had no lag and loading time of apps is as quick as anything I've had before. It feels snappy.

The camera is excellent. I go through a lot of phones, and my last was a Z Ultra. The Z Ultra is a great phone but the camera is shocking so the leap to the S3's camera is huge, but it still takes what I feel to be good photos, or at least good enough for my own personal use.

I haven't had the charging issue that others seem to have had. I notice no difference in charging times between this and other phones.

The screen is crisp and clear, and the colours vivid.

All in all there's very little difference for me between the S3 and other phones I've had such as the M8 and LGG3. Bearing in mind this cost me £150 new, where as my G3 cost £280 second hand, it really goes to show what a remarkable achievement the phone is.

I definitely recommend it, and I'm excited for when lollipop drops.

Jiayu S3B spemall

Hello everyone! I've been reading this thread for so long and haven't got time to join JY S3 club on xda :D

Don't won't to repeat others but it's really nice phone and that we have so much nice people out there who are already working hard to "complete" this awesome phone in terms of software.

I've already written a short review on my phone which you can find on china-devices (also nice place with nice people willing to help) in the following lin ( china-devices.com/Thread-Hello-everyone--4790?pid=31186#pid31186 )

So I think I might be able to find hew answers here, especially from [MENTION=3055125]Fraggel[/MENTION] , [MENTION=4488810]Levered[/MENTION] , [MENTION=4106626]haasgo[/MENTION] etc who have already learned "illnesses" of the phone :highfive: :p

Question I would like to know answer for:

1. ejiayu shows "Jiayu S3B" what does the B stands for. I assume "Basic" but I would like to know which versions are available.

2. Minding the Lollipop, any estimate time of release? If it will come in a month or so I don't mind waiting but if it will come in 5 months I would like to solve camera firmware/software issue and gapps (which can be installed, I installed with fastcardtech app, and work but cannot be synced - I would like to have calendar, gmail and contacts synced). So if I could get a recommendation minding ROM that has fixed camera software and included working gapps with sync.

3. I've done backup using TWRP (thank you ejiayu developers and TWRP! :good:) but atm I have no sd card so I copied it to my pc. Can I flash some ROM through TWRP without sd card or is it not reccomended.

4. I've got S3 20150204-16117 version out of the box. Is this the latest firmware since I cannot use OTA (it says system is up to date)?

Thank you all. Enjoy your weekend with S3 in your hands! :D

Thank you for your reply. I cannot find almost anyone with this firmware.

So, bad things kinda happened. Some people told me to install gapps through ejiayu.es apk and I did. But my phone booted in Chinese and all data lost. I do have my backup before it but I cannot boot into recovery after this.

Any idea?

Edit1: So I managed to boot into recovery but it's not TWRP anymore. It's stock recovery, chinese.

Edit2: Well, this is strange. I seem to have with PowerButton+VolumeDown chinese bootloader and with PowerButton+VolumeUp TWRP, is this even possible?

After entering TWR I managed to restore all my data. So now I'm back to stock and trying S3W 20150205-141543.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] L4s7Re4lG4mer:

Hello again. So I've woke up this morning and had to try AOSP from TF and after setting it up, it's awesome! All gapps working/syncing fine, camera is better but it does need some more tuning. And overall it's blazingly fast, way better then stock. Great job TeamForce!

So I am deffinately keeping this one until 5.0 so I wanted to ask few stupid questions. I know I can uninstall system apps but I also know that system might start malfunctioning due to uninstalling so I need advice.

Apps I would like to get rid of are: Calendar - stock app (I am using google calendar or bussiness calendar 2), Voice search, Google (I thing it was used to be called google search. that blue icon with small letter "g") and that's about it.

Ohh, and there are some features I really lack from stock Jiayu and I would like to know is there a way to implement them on AOSP TF.

*Those quicksettings/toggle buttons from "bottom slide" were really nice.

**DoubleTap to unlock. Since my phone is usually sitting on the table. And if it could be locked by double tapping (Like LG G2/3) it would be awesome!

***There were few nice gestures like: You can turn on flashlight when holding Menu button on lockscreen, draw C and swipe up to unlock. But double tap is definately the best one.

So, any advice regarding my question is welcome. Thanks guys!

Just wanted to add my two cents about the battery drop problem.

I had the exact same problem on my wife's phone: Motorola Moto G 1st generation. But not around 15-20%, around 60-70%.

Full charge phone, lock screen, after a while, when battery was around 60-70%, phone would turn off.

If the screen was on, like a very long youtube video (for testing), never had problems. Only when screen was off, phone locked.

The battery drop didn't happened all the time, but pretty often. She had the phone for about 6 months, problem occured, first, every 2-4 weeks, then every week, then every 4-6 days.

After phone turned off, I had to charge it for 5-10 minutes before it started. Also, I had to do a very very long power button press, about 30 seconds.

After phone turned on, battery shows 0-5%. Every time, the drop shows clearly on the battery graph.

I sent the phone to be repaired 3 times, on warranty: first time "phone has no problems", second and third time "re-flash". Of course, problem was never fixed.

Phone had Android 4.4.4 I have found this problem on numerous forums, exactly the same phone model. Some users said the bug occurs on Android 5.x too.

Then I changed the phone, got her Huawei Honor 3C, she gets 7 days if battery.

So, is this a software or hardware problem ??

Stock camera don't reacts to this button. Camera FV-5 also don't reacts. But CameraPro takes shots.

Problem is that nor stock camera nor CameraFV-5 understand headset mediabutton. Camera Pro takes shots (there is "Take shots with headset mediabutton option").

So, I've already asked [MENTION=4196889]DerTeufel1980[/MENTION] to add headset mediabutton to stock camera etc.

There is working workaround in KK to fix that. Dunno if it works in LP. But workaround isn't a problem fix)
