No you're not, read back a few pages, quite a few people including me are facing the exact same issue you described, with clean flashes nonetheless. Devs are looking into the matter.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ark17p2t3:
I'll try flashing with CWM recovery. Will report back if everything goes fine.

Edit: I'm still getting bootloops.

I have installed rom (version 18 september) on twrp 2.8.7.0 in this order: wipe, install ROM install supersu install open gapps pico modular reboot and all good work.

Note2: i have 9300 international variant.

Soo sorry for spam but i write it to help developers.

:confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] redlag:
Which version? (I am new to this device. Sorry for taking this off topic.)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] fir1996:
This issue happen to some devices other confirm that it work you have to try it by your self but i warn you it may cause boot loop on your device

On my device with murata ship it boot normally with Slim_zero_gapps.BETA.5.1.build.0.x-20150917

it's really fast :) i'll continue to test

congratulation for this nice rom
[Galaxy S III Android Development] fir1996:
For those who have succecfully boot the rom can you tell us exactly how did you flash it "recovery,wipes,every thing". And if any one have boot loop And succeded after that booting the rom tell us sooory for spamm.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mcgi5sr2:
OK so let start at the start

try using only the latest version of TWRP

second use the normal wipe from within TWRP nothing else should be required

Flash the ROM.zip file

reboot

Please don't install anything else until you check if it boots.

If you do get a boot loop can you please post logs, I am pulling my hair out trying to replicate the bootloops you guys are getting, but physically can't manage it.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] myshakugan:
Luke posted a log earlier, did you check that?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mgtroyas:
I've detected the hardware buttons have an erratic behaviour:

Timeout: sometimes they turn off 1-2 seconds after pressed, others after 10-15 seconds, sometimes they stay on forever and must turn off the screen. Very annoying for use on low light conditions.

Also sometimes back button doesn't work, the app ignores the input.

Is there some compatible kernel I can test over this ROM?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] b0unty:

same here, I've sometimes slowdowns

[Galaxy S III Android Development] mcgi5sr2:
Yes, but nothing that helpful in it. Plenty of "challenges to work on" but nothing that would lead me to believe a failure in boot process was about to occur. May need a full set of logs including lastkmsg and dmsg. Really frustrating that I can't get it happening to me. This is probably the first time I have intentionally tried to get a device to boot loop.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ark17p2t3:
Tried on my friend's murata i9300 and the ROM booted fine. Mine is semcosh and I get bootloops.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SteStanich:
one word: great!

hi devs, this rom is simply great. I added features I cannot leave without by GB, rom is fast, stable and battery backup seems very good too.

thank you all!

any custom kernel working with it? only thing I miss now is boeffla sound.

cheers!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lukewilliams418:
It must be due to semcosh, because in the log i posted before mentioned semcosh in it. and any murata devices seem to work.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] b0unty:
at the moment there is no fix yet available

you can open your /data/.cid.info (txt format)

you can see if your phone use "murata", "semcosh" or "semcove" ship

at the moment it seems only murata chip are working without bootloop (this chip is the cellular radio)

hello [MENTION=4901061]mcgi5sr2[/MENTION]

i saw an old post by [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION] talking about murata & semcosh ships at : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=53656902&postcount=7534

maybe you could ask him some tips to fix that bootloop problem with your AOSP project

have fun and thx again for this nice project
[Galaxy S III Android Development] fir1996:
Finally !!! I have made the ROM boot successfully without boot loop by dirty flash it over slim or omni ROM that's the only way to make it boot .

Also there is unfortunately message ( phone / clock ) ril don't work.

The ROM is solo fast I hope the devs fix it soon that's all what I can do to help you ROM dev.:highfive:

Click thanks button if I help you.:good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Ariano Ângelo:
Maybe they should have a chat with Archi about that, and looking to the news about CM, I think I will prefer to use AOSP anyway. Couldn't use this one. I have a Murata chip. The rom boots, optimize the apps and reboot into a bootloop and does that again. Gapps problem?

Edit: Tried without gapps. Same thing...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Suo.Eno:
Or retry w/ a fresh dl ROM .zip? A borked .zip may yet show a successful flash but not necessarily so. Semcosh here and sending this in on the build + the recommended Slim zero gapps latest.

Since nothing came up with the logs we got so far.. we need more

dmesg from when the rom is trying to optimize apps, last_kmsg right after the reboot, and a full logcat. You can get a full logcat like 'adb logcat > blah.txt' from when the bootanimation comes up, until the phone reboots

:highfive:

Regarding the test release, it boots fine, great job on that. I used to get bootloops on the previous builds. ��

The stock camera and wifi do not work though.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Gokulbalram:
Works fine here mate
[Galaxy S III Android Development] myshakugan:
I meant the test release that the dev posted last page, it was intended for those who had bootloop like me with the previous releases. I assume you don't have bootloop with the previous releases?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Ariano Ângelo:
Test build booted fine here.

Things I noticed:

-If you put your phone charging while off he will turn on automaticaly.

-having fcs with Google play services, and I tried with 2 gapps packages: open Gapps and slimgapps. The ones of the thread.

-Camera app having Fc dunno why.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mcgi5sr2:
Hi sorry thats why it was a test build expected things like this to fail. Looking for a proper fix atm

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Gokulbalram:
Nope, I'm having a really smooth experience here.

Although I am using Boeffla, so I'm not sure if that's the reason why my setup is stable.

As for Gapps, I use TK Gapps Nano and everything's working very well for me
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Ariano Ângelo:
I wanted to use this rom, but all those problems it's hard. I'll wait for a stable build.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] vinz3nt:
I'm afraid there will never be a stable 5.1.1 built. I tried them all but they all suffer major problems.

I went back to 4.4.4 and I'm happy now.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mcgi5sr2:
Issue is due to semcosh chipset devices. The test build was to ascertain that was definitely the issue. Now I am searching for the fix. Anyone on Murata chipsets should have a nice stable experience
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Ariano Ângelo:
I have a Murata chip and I had bootloop...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Ivan_Meler:
And latest test build booted for you? In that case you didnt have murata chip but semcosh

[Galaxy S III Android Development] lukewilliams418:
When kitkat roms first became available, these kind of problems occurred. It will take time. I believe also this will be the same case with Marshmallow when it also is released for the S3.

Out of interest? Does anybody know why there are two sets of chips (murata and semcosh variants) in the S3.

I tried to install a new rom(cynogenmod 11 from xda forums) in my lenovo a6000 which i god a day before on my birthday. it had lollipop os and i installed TWRP recovery in it. but the instructions for installing rom said to clear data. dalvik, cache before installing and the twrp cleared cache and delvik cache but then it had been over 5 min and it still stated -"formatting data by mounting(bla... bla...) method". so i just reboot the phone by removing the battery and booted in the recovery again. i tried to clear them again but this time all of those three stated mounting problems while clearing. i went on installing the rom but it stuck too stating only these lines:-

1>no md5 checksum found.

2>skipping md5 checksum(bla.. bla...).

so i did the same mistake again and removed the battery to reboot but now it just shows the lenovo logo on bootup and nothing happens thereafter except frequent restarts. i tried to connect it to pc to load recovery via minimal adb and fastboot but the phone is just charging itself via usb cable and not connecting to the pc no matter i reinsert the battery.

i dont want to reach the service center or my dad will kill me for damaging a new phone. please if anyone can help then reply soon or i am gonna screwed.
