I'll look into this, I use an adblocker so not sure I can see the same as you. Its probably a basketbuild thing. Are you choosing regular download or download with peer 5?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bigbaluka:
If you're downloading from a mobile device e.g. your S3 the download page has a donate button at the top but if you scroll to the bottom there's a "Take the Survey" button you have to click before the "DOWNLOAD FILE WITH PEER5" & "DOWNLOAD FILE" buttons appear. You can elect to "Skip Survey" once you've clicked the Take Survey button but the survey is usually only two questions and it helps BasketBuild to offset the cost of hosting all of these files. The desktop site is less confusing than the mobile site. Either way clicking the Take the Survey button is the key to the download buttons. Of course this is all assuming we're even talking about the same page on BasketBuild for downloading this weeks nearly perfect OctM weekly build.

I try to give you guys the heads up every Saturday when new builds go up but sometimes I slip up or 4get a week here or there.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jaws4God:
flashed tonight. nice but front camera doesn't work for me. :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bigbaluka:
Mine works in the dark but not in the light. Perhaps my selfie camera thinks I'm ugly. :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] canodroid15:
This is a CM issue, no CM rom you flash is going to have a fully working front camera until CM fixes it. This new camera "Snap Cam" is CM's app. Therefore we can't do much about it. I've heard others mention that some apps work where stock cam doesn't but I'm not sure which ones. I can confirm it does work in low light.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jaws4God:
i believe that is what i am seeing.. guess i didn't know if any of the S3 developers were able to work some magic.. [emoji1]

if anyone knows of a camera app that works for CM13, please let me know. thank you.

[MENTION=1801772]Jaws4God[/MENTION], try this one. I can't promise it works but it has in the past. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.radcam.camera

---------- Post added at 04:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:21 PM ----------

There's also camera MX & open camera. Both on play store. Again not sure if they'll work just a few I've used in the past. You could try google camera but I seriously doubt it'll work. It never does lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bigbaluka:
Open Camera isn't working either... I'm not worried, I believe this is why developers do nightly releases or in the case of OctM the far superior model of weekly releases. I believe the necessary people are likely aware of the camera issue and I'm sure they too want it fixed. The camera issue is likely one of many issues that need to be addressed, and it's probably not the most important issue. I don't think many of us end users have any idea how much time and work goes into developing a working OS for an Android device and it helps me to keep in mind the concept of nightly or weekly. Most of these developer probably have other lives and don't get paid or even ask to be paid for the work they do on these ROMs. Eventually they will release some type of "Official Release" these to will have bugs.

Weekly for 3/12/2016 No Data

Flashed this week's weekly last night and had no LTE. When I tried to access APN settings I got a nasty message, "Access Point Name settings are not available for this user". Then I performed a clean install wiping everything but storage in TWRP and had the same issue. Then restarted and got "No Sim Card" installed, when I tried to enter Settings it seemed to freeze. I wiped everything again and went back to last weeks build for now, that gave me back my data and CDMA. I'll try again tonight. Perhaps someone with a clue would be willing to buy me a clue. :confused: I can wait for next weeks build if need be. Here's a link to the zip I flashed just to make sure I was on the right file:

https://basketbuild.com/filedl/devs...ly/d2vzw/OCT-M-WEEKLY-20160312-0233-d2vzw.zip

MD5 checks out fine I checked it twice.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] canodroid15:
Looking into it, that's the correct build. It's most likely something upstream that broke it. Weeklies always have the potential to be unstable. Mostly, we get by with stable builds every week but things like this will happen from time to time.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bigbaluka:
Flashed it about 5 hours ago now and it's looking good so far. I was noticing an issue with the "Auto Rotate" function on the last build. I was still troubleshooting but now that I flashed this weekly I can't get that to break anymore. I never did figure out what was causing it but it happened a few times. This build is more stable and fast than a lot of the mashups and milestones out there. Y'all do really good work. I haven't looked at the change log yet so I don't really even know what's new yet.

This SD Card Read Write Thing

Been running over 24 hours now nearly perfectly. The CM-13 issues are still there like the aforementioned front camera issue and the read write permissions issue with the external sd card. This SD Card thing is only slightly bothersome. ES File Explorer will transfer files to External SD but if I modify a file like gapps-config it won't save changes. I have to move the file to Internal Storage modify and save changes then move it back to External. Titanium Backup has a good work around for backups on External.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bigbaluka:
I'm dying for this to be fixed as well. I'm on the first release of Oct-M now and loving it. I don't really use front camera that much but I still want it to work. Nearly everything else works perfectly on Oct-M. I think the front camera issue is a CyanogenMod 13.0 issue. I've noticed any ROM based on CM 13 like Oct-M or AICP-MM is having this issue for now. I've also noticed the issue being discussed in this CM 13 thread as well. http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3-veri...m-cyanogenmod-13-0-nightlies-verizon-t3269675 I'm kinda confused on which team would be the one to fix this as I don't really understand how all this development works. If I had a lot of money I'd put a bounty on it just for fun.:silly:

What build are you on? What firmware/modem? GApps Package? Was it a clean install? I'm on a clean install of OCT-M-R1-6.0.1-20160319-D2VZW.ZIP with OpenGApps and I'm signed into Google everything and it's all working beautifully including Google+ and Photos.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jaws4God:
can i ask if there is a chance for the Oct Team or AICP team able to fix the front camera ? or does it have to be the CM team? I just dont understand the opem source and modifications you all do and the restrictions. ?

has anyone found a camera app that could work instead? i tried a few with no luck.. the only one that somewhat works with front camera is Retica..

I'm on the R1, with stock 6.0 gapps from opengapps.org (I just googled gapps...), and firmware is NE1 I believe. And yes, was a completely clean install.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] raisins:
Hi I just had to re-root and unlock my s3. I am trying to install R1, and after the boot screen and optimizing the app dialogue, the screen goes blank with the LED still blinking blue. Here is what I have done to re-root and unlock:

-Phone was on stock TW 4.3- followed the thread on downgrading to 4.1.2.

-Once downgraded, I used the casual root and unlock tool and I flashed TWRP.

-I'm able to flash zips and confirmed that I am unlocked and rooted.

But when I flash this ROM, after wiping data, it is not able to boot up. I've tried several roms on here, and they all have a similar problem. Any ideas if I missed a step?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bigbaluka:
I'm far from an expert on this but I'm pretty sure it's best to use MF1bootstack/NE1 modem combo, invisiblek built a flashable zip that installs both. http://www.invisiblek.org/firmware/d2/d2vzw_MF1_firmware_NE1_modem.zip I think MF1 for both works as well.

Can i installing this rom on locked bootloader device? (VRUDNE1 4.4.2 KitKat)

What can I use besides this rom? Thx
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bigbaluka:
If you can unlock your bootloader you can use any pretty much any d2vzw ROM. There's been talk on the forums about unlocking d2vzw bootloader, but I don't know if it's possible. Check out this thread, it looks promising but you'll have to read a bit. http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3-verizon/help/4-4-2-downgrade-to-4-1-2-t2819270 Or perhaps this one but it looks less promising as it's for Android 4.3, http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3-verizon/development/downgrade-4-3-to-4-1-2-unlock-t3142876 firmware might be the same though. :confused:

I have found an issue with screen rotation. I had been using Oct-M-R1 from 3/19 for the last 2-3 weeks. I had noticed a few times that photos and videos in Facebook would not rotate. I thought at the time it had something to do with the Facebook app. Today I turned the screen to look at gallery photos in landscape mode. The screen didn't rotate. I dirty-flashed the 4/02 weekly, but no change. I have checked settings in "Settings" and in "Tentacles" - all settings related to screen rotation are enabled. Any ideas? Has anyone else reported this issue?

4/8/16 - issue resolved. I restored an old backup of Oct-L, confirmed that screen rotation was working. I then restored my backup of Oct-M weekly I had made 30 minutes earlier, and screen rotation is now working.

Hey!

So, I've had CM13 and AICP on my phone. What is cool about this one? Haven't tried it yet - put it on awhile back but couldn't get it to boot. Got it on now and putting it through it's paces. I did see it's debloated like AICP. Also saw the post about the new Kernel. Would that same kernel be showing up on CM13? If not, it might fix some of the persistent bugs.

Why go with this one over one of those others? (Though I'm sure glad to see active development continuing for our phone!!:good::good:)

I would read the posts on that thread and see if anyone has actually had success with this method. I know of some who have not, for different reasons, also see following comment.

The last time I suggested this to someone who had used the downgrade method after the BL had been locked from OTA, they ended up with a permanent brick. Worked with them for awhile and we couldn't get it back up. This is when the method was brand new. There are posts about it on the CM12.1 thread.

The method is a hybrid firmware/bootloader partitions overwrite. One of the partitions that a standard MF1 flash would overwrite is not overwritten with this method, thus it works. Flashing MF1 screws the pooch. The info about which partitions are overwritten is in the OP of that thread, and the info about which partitions an MF1 flash overwrites is in the updater-script file in the zip. I posted more details and other info about this on CM13 or CM12.1 thread in the last 10 days or so but I don't remember which one.

Dirty Flash?

Hey all!

New Octo user here - came to join the Octopus party!

So, what's the deal with dirty flashing? I see there's a backup script and it's called from the updater-script but I can't really figure it out much, or I would have to spend too much time trying to figure it out and still may not. But, after knocking my head against the wall after upgrading (

dirty flashing

) my fresh install of 4/2 to 4/9, and now dirty flashing the 4/2 to 4/16, I finally see that GApps is not protected - gone! All Google functions!

Well, if that's part of the deal, that's part of the deal then. First time I've run into this though, from JB on. Is there a functional reason that GApps is not protected during the upgrade? I personally am not thrilled with flashing the latest GApps because I've seen trouble from time to time doing this. I can always keep a set around and use it, upgrading it from time to time I guess, then I would probably face some app updates after booting in. Not the end of the world.

I've searched the thread and haven't found much except that people were always flashing new GApps when upgrading. Nothing on the project website.

Hey! I'll stick with it and see what's what for now.:good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] canodroid15:
[MENTION=5519140]Master Cylinder[/MENTION], When you flash our ROM (as stated in the OP) our ROM has a script that wipes system on install. So to dirty flash all you need to do is flash ROM & Gapps. Some of our testers (even tho the script wipes system) wipe system, cache & dalvik/art. Flash ROM, gapps, any other files that reside in system & reboot.

You don't have to update gapps, I don't. I flash the exact same package I previously flashed. This way you won't encounter a boatload of FC's on boot. ?

Fair enough. Still, never ran into this before in a ROM ever. (I'm surprised my phone still works I've flashed so many ROMS! If there's a theoretical limit to flashing the chips then I've blown past it.) But, an Octopus is a really weird and fascinating creature! So, we'll see how it goes!

Well, for one I'm a team member. Not to take anything away from other ROMs but we strive for stability & test vigorously. Now, weeklies have the potential to be unstable but 99% of the time we release stable builds. We may not have all the latest & greatest features but if you flash a build from us you can count on it being DD material 99% of the time. Bugs are at a minimal, we watch & merge carefully. So far we've only had to pull weeklies twice since we started doing them. So to sum it all up, I'm proud to be a part of this team & what we do. We're in no way better than any other ROM but when you're proud of what you do why go else where. ? ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jaws4God:
thanks, that means a lot to me and i may reconsider your rom, specifically if you all are able to fix front camera..

I do remember an issue i had on OctLP, casted screen for music.. got stuck in a loop where it would show stock wallpaper then black.. repeat.. only stopped when i held power button to reboot .
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] canodroid15:
I'll be the first to let you know when the FFC is snapping again, lol! I haven't heard any issues with screen cast but if you found its still an issue we'll be glad to work with you on it & try to resolve it. So if its still an issue let me know via PM & we'll go from there. I'll check with my testers on it during the next week.
