New build availiable. This build and future builds will be based on CM 12.1/Android 5.1.

Android 5.1 brings a number of enhancements and usability improvements. For a full feature spotlight, click here.

Notable improvements for d2tmo:

Improved battery life

Animations improved and much smoother overall

VPN and proxy settings should be much more functional (they were a bit broken in the last build)

Portable hotspot issues fixed (in the last build, it could only be activated via quick settings. Activating via regular settings would cause it to go into an on-off loop

App switching should be noticeably smoother

didnt seem slow. i used two different mirrors several hours apart. seemed to dl at the same speed both times, but i didnt compare byte counts or anything between first and second attempts. yours wasn't the only one not working for me, so it's probably something wrong with my device. the charger port's loose and charges stupid slow when it charges at all, so who knows what else is wrong... i'll grab this new one and give it a shot in multiboot, or backup/flash if that doesnt work.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ShernDog:
There are some upstream CM camera fixes that allow the camera to work fairly well on CM based ROMs, is there any way you could merge those?

They work but one says do not merge but it makes them work so...

Stock cam photo+video are working very well with only occasional disconnects with camera hax in place.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] StealthBravo:
Link? I didn't see these on d2-common, maybe I'm blind.

Those were a couple, they aren't completely solid, I don't know what the octos devs did to make them work but that's what's needed.

Nice to see a thread specifically for T-Mobile builds. I'll grab this and just use my iPod touch's camera if I need it lol.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cLogic:
yep ... I discovered that the lockscreen custom widgets have been completely removed ... but, there are apps that will bring it back so that I can get dashclock back

I always disabled heads up on cm, omni, etc ... disgusted that google went so far as to not only make it a new feature, but the default feature, and cant turn it off

it is such a terrible style ... popup, bright white background FUGLY!

positive notes:

- it is called Interruptions .. in notification manager and/or sound menus in settings ... and it can be turned OFF :good:

- apps like dynamicNotifications still work .. bringing desired notifications to lockscreen (when screen is off) :cool::cool:

- there are xposed modules that bring back kitkat ticker notification (in status bar) :good:

thanks for the 5.1 build .. I was going to backup and restore nandroid to cm 11 for regular sunday nite weekly update and STAY on kitkat, but now I'll just backup, restore cm 11, update cm 11, then restore your 5.1 cm 12 build :D

@StealthBravo

I have noticed in other forums for lollipop roms that there are different gapps for 5.0.x and 5.1.x and they have a big effect on rom usability

remember to download a 5.1 gapps for latest build !!

personally, I am going to grab the 5.1 version from [GAPPS][2015-04-04] Google Apps Minimal Edition for Android 5.0.x & 5.1

.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Jay Rock:
The Gapps linked to in the OP worked for me with the latest build. :good:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] StealthBravo:
Yeah, everyone gets different results it seems. For me, Google Play Services spammed me with crashes. I had to flash back an older version of GPS, and then it worked again.

I'll try to get these merged for the next build, thanks!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mc00:
so far so good on t999l with latest bootloader and modem NF4

only issue camera of course and snapchat is black screen viewing other people snaps...

thank you for the releases!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cLogic:
so .. I've been running the latest cm 12.1 android 5.1 build .. smooth, runs well .. thanks for the nice work bringing it to our S3 :)

any chance that cm might consider you as official cm 12 maintainer for our device ?

fyi .. I used an awesome gapps with full aroma installer to pick and choose apps .. [GAPPS][5.0/5.1][AROMA] LP-GAPPS [April, 20 2015] by [MENTION=4964524]raulx222[/MENTION]

however .. while running this rom I'm noticing all of the issues that have been reported all over the net regarding 5.1 in general and specifically noticing that cm 12.1 is simply not ready for prime time (daily driver) .. too many features partially functioning, broken cm 11 and cm 12 features and new features/apps poorly implemented

5.1 brought the ability to select wifi to connect to via drop-down in notification drawer toggles (only if enlarge first row is enabled) .. however since 5.0, wifi occasionally drops and leaves a ! indicator which then says that is cuz there was an authentication problem or similar .. wifi was rock solid on 4.4.4

I depend on Google Now always working, xposed modules for greenify, functional call recording, camera, etc etc

I'm going to revert to cm 11 latest nightly or cm 12 5.0.2 as daily driver and keep trying these 12.1+ builds on weekends until they becomes a positive upgrade rather than a beta

.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] StealthBravo:
These have been merged for the upcoming build. It's building right now, I'll have to see how it goes.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muhammada1257:
ok doing now

---------- Post added at 04:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:18 AM ----------

it says T999uvdmd5 so what kind of rom do I flash safely. Keeping in mind cwm installed rooted and i9300 says the phone in about device. The board says i747 when disassembled. Plz help . And thankyou so much for replying. One tech here says flash i747 roms without doubt. I m waiting for your advice. Thanx again.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] canodroid15:
[MENTION=7057938]muhammada1257[/MENTION],

Ok, proceed at your own risk, I'm not responsible for your device! I don't know how in the world the phone came to be the way it is but.. you'll need to flash the d2tmo builds according to the terminal output & download mode. However, you're on an old firmware (UVUMD5) so if you don't get cell signal & data after flashing d2tmo builds you'll need to Odin the latest tar for T-999 found on sammobile. The T999UVUBOH1 tar is the latest. Good luck!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muhammada1257:
Ok so I did the emulator command it says t999uvdmd5 and download mode says t999 only so can I directly flash any custom roms. Like Cm
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] canodroid15:
Yes custom roms for d2tmo. You need to be on the latest TWRP as well for d2tmo which is TWRP 3.0.2-0

As mentioned above you might need to flash the latest tar if you get no sim/no data on custom ROMs after flashing
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muhammada1257:
So can u plz give me some roms link for this phone.

And another thing. I flashed i9300 twrp before and it bricked. Plz a link for the right model with method would be appreciated. I just need the right kind of Cm Rom with good Battery life.that's all.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] hasan.sy:
My samsung s3 had been like your device i9300zsemc1 and the firmware is i747mvldlk .now it works on t999 boatloader and roms ...so your device is t999
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muhammada1257:
So it's safe to do that and can you give me a link of roms for this
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muhammada1257:
re

ok so found this rom (Update T-Mobile Galaxy S3 T999 to Android 6.0.1 CM13 Marshmallow Custom ROM) there with some comments not working dialer or some other things and one of em said it worked for him. so should i try?? i wont brick the phone right. i mean dead.

and u said no cell signals etc then first i try this rom then flash the latest tar?? cause they said CWM recovery needed and i already have it. so shall i go for it with CWM 6.0?? thanx
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] muhammada1257:

Just installed 1/30 nightly Lineage. In dev options root DISABLED or ADB ONLY. How do i root it? Flash/install supersu?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] brossovitch:
If you want the regular root in developer options download it feom the extra section on their website. Otherwise use SuperSU (2.79SR3 works) Or do the whole Magisk thing, which also works.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] StealthBravo:
If anyone is wondering, development of this ROM is halted indefinitely seeing as Lineage 14.1 is already out and stable. I also moved to a Nexus 6P last year, so this is no longer my primary device. I'll make builds whenever Android 8.0 drops.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] brossovitch:
Thank you for your continued service. Official builds work wonderfully. With the exception of video recording which is broken on all my LOS14.1 devices. Easily fixed by using Google Camera instead of Snapdragon Camera.

✌️?

Will this work for Canadian SGHT999V (wind)

The front camera crashed after updating my t999 to 24-04-2017 los14.1, if i remember this problem happened last year with cm13 in april ? is there any fix
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] hooutoo:
Any one know if there's a way to go directly Android 4.3 to lineageOS 14.1?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] brossovitch:
Boot TWRP, factory reset, then flash LOS.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] hooutoo:
Thanks for the help but as I subsequently found out, it's necessary to do a wipe/change the system file to F2FS format.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] brossovitch:
Oh? I didn't do that on either of my d2tmo devices. They're working fine. I suppose of its something you think you need go for it. Goodluck.

My SanDisk SD card had stopped being writable after the August 28th nightly and it won't let me roll back to the previous week's nightly (yes, I got complacent and didn't do a backup before installing--my bad). Anyone else have this problem?

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TheOddTaco:
which CyanogenMod/LineageOS version runs the best for performance on the s3? CM10, 11, or 12.1?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] rojovilla:
I can only speak for myself, but my S3, which I coincidentally just fired back up after being off a few months, is running butter smooth (nothing broken) on a nightly (20160511) of CM 13.

I came to check out this thread because I have two other devices running Lineage OS, and wanted to see how it was working on the S3. Will probably nandroid and then flash this to see how it does...

Good luck! :highfive:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TheOddTaco:
I went back from 14.1 to CM11 since it was the last rom used for a daily driver before I switched to a different phone.

At the moment it runs fine, but I'll try out CM13 later on. Thanks!

Has anyone tried any Custom Kernel with this ROM ? Please share the link(s) for custom kernel that work with this ROM, Thank you.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] lambert_67:
Earphones not working . when connected the sound just goes off and even after removed no sound. Need to reboot
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Ashaz93:
I`m facing the same problem for many months now. It started one day while my phone was on CM 13. The phone goes totally mute, It makes no sound whatsoever. I need to restart the phone to get the sounds back but it doesn`t work everytime and even if does, it doesn`t remains audible for long.

So far I have tried CM 13. Lineage OS, Mokkee ROM but they all suffer from this problem on my device. It can due to some issue between the ROM and kernel but I don`t know what other Kernel work on this ROM and where to find them so I can experiment with them to fix this problem.

The only thing that works for me is going back to Stock ROM. All sounds work just fine on stock 4.1 or 4.3 Jelly bean.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] droidlesswonder:
Lineageos.org has dropped support for the US carrier-specific S3 builds, including d2tmo - even the past official 14.1 builds seem to be gone. Are they still available anywhere?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] StarSpeak:
Yea, the maintainer quit. Info: https://www.reddit.com/r/LineageOS/comments/7x43gv/updates_for_samsung_galaxy_s3/

I have a copy of the last build, lineage-14.1-20171204-nightly-d2tmo-signed.zip if you really need it.

You can also get it w/ microG here: https://lineage.microg.org/

I just loaded the microG version of LO 14.1 on my d2tmo, but am running into major issues with MMS being completely non-functional. Spent all day working on it to no avail, tried everything - apn settings, network resets, reflashed modem firmware (thanks DocHoliday), even wasted an hour with t-mobile support. Nothing works. btw, this thread's OP (StealthBravo) had the same crap. Can't send or receive pictures.

Might give OctOS Oct-N try over the weekend, looks pretty good... but then again, it's based on LO 14.1, so may run into the same MMS crap.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] droidlesswonder:
I checked with my d2tmo S3 running LineageOS 14.1-20171127-NIGHTLY-d2tmo, baseband version T999LUVUBOH1. I had never tested it with SMS or MMS messages - sure enough, the same problem you report - it won't send MMS messages. I tried switching to the Textra app, which has a few extra knobs and lets you fine-tune some of the MMS settings, but nothing I tried worked. Textra at least could give me a diagnostic log, for what it's worth:

2018-03-16 23:36:49.159: Txtr:mms: content://queue/1: biv@3841c95: handleMmsSent(uri=content://queue/1, entry=bjh@241d011[id=1,when=1521257794752, state=SENDING_WAIT, startedAt=1521257794608, failed=false, deliveryInfo=azb[waiting=false,infos=ayz[attemptId=1521257794463,segments=[azc[sent=false,delivered=false,when=0]],when=1521257794463,failed=false,deliveryReceiptRequested=true]]], httpStatus=0, resultCode=MMS_ERROR_HTTP_FAILURE)

If anyone has suggestions for how to further debug this problem, please post!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] StarSpeak:
So that's three of us now with the same mms b.s.

btw, try to receive them - I believe you'll find that won't work either. Endless "downloading...."
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] droidlesswonder:
Guess what, I found the fix. The same problem happened to my regular phone, a Moto G 2015 also running LineageOS. After I crossed the border into Canada, regular texts still worked, but no MMS. After some desperate web searching I found the answer at https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/problem-with-t-mobile-mms.560661/ where someone figured out the correct APN settings. I just tested the same changes on my d2tmo running 14.1-20171127-NIGHTLY-d2tmo and lo and behold, it can now send MMS messages!

So here's the fix:

* Settings / Wireless & Networks / More / Cellular Networks / Access Point Names

* Click the plus sign in upper right to create a new APN definition. Name it "Tmobile custom" or the like

* Copy the settings from https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-2090 (BYOD T-Mobile data & APN settings) into this custom definition, WITH ONE EXCEPTION:

* for APN Type, use the setting: "default,mms,supl,hipri,admin,mobile" (without the quotes)

* click the menu dots on the upper right and save the new APN definition

* back at the APN menu, select the new APN definition by touching on the radio button on the right

My guess is that the LineageOS APN definitions are out of date or otherwise need fine-tuning.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] StarSpeak:
I followed those steps on my phone and no dice. I'm running OctOS-N, which is basically the same as LOS 14.1.

The only variable so far that affects the transmission/reception of MMS is my wifi connection. If I turn it off and ensure the cell signal statusbar icon says 'H+' , mms magically works. When connected to wifi, it really is a crapshoot - but usually won't work.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] droidlesswonder:
Cyanagenmod had a setting somewhere to use only the cellular network for MMS, but I haven't found the equivalent in LineageOS.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Joker1716:
I have compiled Unofficial lineage 14.1 for the d2spr and the d2att in the past few days. I can compile for this device also I will post a link to download it when it is done. Timeframe will prolly be 24 hours or less. I will probably build one a week , hopefully people will enjoy it as much as I do.

Cellular data always...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] StarSpeak:
enabling 'cell data always active' in dev options was among the first fixes attempted. So I don't believe that's the CM legacy setting droidlesswonder was referencing.

It's getting harder and harder to find recent ROMs for the old phones. Mokee lists what look like Android 7.1 (Nougat) builds for d2tmo:

https://download.mokeedev.com/d2tmo.html

This isn't a recommendation, I've never tried it, but this is the first time I've seen any d2tmo downloads with a 2019 date on the files so that must be worth something.

I am assuming I would have to clear /system then if I switch form PA-GAPPS to CM-GAPPS. Maybe I should just a full clean install and see if that works. I did test Skype video and it was working during a call.
