Running the latest nightly. Everything is OK although I haven't tried the front camera.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jimmytwotimes.parker:
Just tried the latest LRS build. Still no working front camera for me. It works on video but camera just freezes whole phone when taking selfie. Back to backup. Tanx for trying tho.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] sabunassar:
Anyone having issues with MMS since past few builds? I tried different settings in Chomp as well as specify manual settings, but doesn't work. Default messaging app didn't help. Only thing that works is to flash APN fix v2. That forces me back to 3G only tho. If I dirty flash new CM13, LTE is restored but MMS stops working again.

Maybe I need to try clean flash & see if that works? Wondering if anyone else having issues. Used to work OK a few builds ago.

Thx

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
Confirmed. Same thing on aicp too.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lowmaz:
OK so I took the plunge and loaded it up along with the gapps package. Everything works great although I keep getting the "Google play services have stopped" error message every 3 seconds. What have I missed or what am I doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
I don't know if it you did this or it's related. But with android 6 and probably any newer version. You must flash gapps before the first boot. Meaning do this, wipe, flash rom, flash gapps, boot system. Not this, wipe, flash rom, boot system, reboot recovery then flash gapps. Other wise I'd say clear the cache from the recovery and make sure play services is up to date.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lowmaz:
Thanks for the reply. I finally got it working. Success. Only bug I can report is the front camera not working. Had to load the boost mobile APN fix to get 4g working, but other than that everything works great!

Confirmed working on Galaxy S3 L710 Sprint model on Boost Mobile service.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] meatfest1974:
...that happened to me when I inadvertently flashed a 5.1 GApps.

You sure you're flashing the 6.0?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
Me? Yes, that is an actual condition with using gapps on 6.0+ versions of Android because of both encryption and how Google signs their system apps
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] meatfest1974:
...my apologies. My response was meant for lowmaz, but it seems you've gotten that covered. Whoops.

cm-13.0-20160308-UNOFFICIAL-d2spr.zip

...thanks for the new March security patch level update!

Just as Lrs121 predicted, there's a loss of mobile data upon the usual dirty flash.

After a restart, the re-flash of the VM apn fix, another restart, then the whole dirty flash of the ROM, GApps, and SuperSU again, everything works great!

Thanks again, for MM on my VM.

Happy flashing!

I have virgin mobile on my sgs3, I've never been able to get 4g to work, is there something special I have to do? Does reboot nvrestore actually work? Please post a guide! I've been desperate for years now... I can drop you a tip. Complain about how there's other unlimited 4g providers giving $60 deals, like metro or boost, if you are a long time customer they will give you a good deal.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
Your welcome, I actually completely forgot the fact that there was a security update. I just felt like it had been a while since the last build.

I think someone posted a like to a guide [MENTION=5752019]madbat99[/MENTION] made on getting 4g working a couple pages back. It had some weird steps involving flashing the rom, gapps, and vm fix, booting to Android, then dirty flashing the ROM and the VM fix again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] meatfest1974:

I'm still unable to retrieve pics in messenger, but at least I've got LTE goin' on.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] sabunassar:
S3 MMS on CM13

MMS doesn't seem to work anymore when you have LTE enabled, but it did a few builds ago (back in Dec. I think). In order to get it to work, I have to revert back to 3G, then it works fine. You do that by:

Flash APN v2

Boot & go to cell network settings. Set preferred network to 3G. Without this, mobile data doesn't connect.

You won't get LTE anymore, but MMS works, so pick your poison. I'm living with 3G for now as I don't really need high speed. Some additional notes:

If you dirty flash a CM13 again, LTE will be restored..BUT, you have to manually go back into the settings & select "LTE (Preferred)". Without that, mobile data doesn't work.

Once you dirty flash CM13 & go back to LTE, MMS stops working again. So, I have been re-flashing APN v2 after every CM13 update to remain on 3G & have MMS.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jeremybrown82:
Thanks, you are a life saver, I finally got it working thanks to dirty flashing! 4G FTW!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mikel81:
Has anyone had trouble with screen rotation? The only way I have been able to get the screen to rotate was by fullscreening a youtube video but then it was stuck sideways even after closing the app. I had to turn the screen off and on to get it back normal.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
First official nightly is out. As usual, with the release of the official nightlies my builds are done. Please redirect all further questions and problems to the proper official CyanogenMod thread.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jeremybrown82:
LRS121, you seem like an elite coder, so please allow me to ask you this, is there anyway to get cm13 working with LTE AND playstore apps from 6.0?

Right now I am able to install the Virgin Mobile Patch, and dirty flash etc.

It works, except then when I proceed to install gapps 6.0 it seems incompatible with the underling dirty flash.

I know this, because 4.4 open gapps is flash-able and working on the stock rom, and D2LTE which seems compatible with gapp 4.4, however cm12 or cm11 is not.

I am thinking some of the framework is not forward compatible with the dirty flash and gapps.

Is there any way to remedy this? Good job on all your hard work!

Jeremy
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
I've mentioned this once previously but I'm not certain this helps. You must flash gapps when installing the rom, before you boot into system for the first time. This is an absolute requirement with Android m and likely anything newer. Part of that requirement is the use of gapps packages meant for Android m. This may require flashing the gapps package when updating to ensure that gapps are installed. So, I'd recommend, when first setting up, you'll wanna flash the ROM, gapps and the fix, reboot, the flash the ROM and fix. Also keep in mind cyanogenmod messes with a ton with the framework.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jeremybrown82:
I appreciate your prompt, and curious feedback.

You suggestions are great! I will try them out.

Just wanted to clarify a couple things, Right now I have J2D rom flashed on my virgin moble with 4g working.

I have removed knox, loving how everything just works, but interested in furthering the development of cm13 on (sph-l710)

In your sentence: "So, I'd recommend, when first setting up, you'll wanna flash the ROM, gapps and the fix, reboot, the flash the ROM and fix."

when you say ROM, in both those instances, I am assuming you mean cm13? Is this correct?

What do you recommend formatting after each flash?

I found a problem, that with flashing anything other than d2LTE (tested newest updated release), unless I format the /Data partition in twrp 3.0.0-0, after having install a stock rom, via odin, I get an error message upon flashing cm11,12, (haven't tried 13) but I assume it is the same deal.

The error message states that data is incompatible and will not flash. I have erased the /Data partition, and found that it proceeds to install the new cm11/12 when attempting to do so.

So, do you recommend erasing the /Data partition only? Or do you recommend erasing Dalvik, and cache as well?

It seems I get errors like, system not responding, along with other errors, but I may have never tried flashing gapps immediately after installing cm11/12. It seems like I have flashed a million different ways.

Does dirty flashing only relate to /system partition?

Which /partition is crucial for 4g to correctly work?

Please describe the steps in greater detail.

I appreciate your hard work and contribution to the android community!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lonelyskatter12:
Just wanted to say, thank you for giving us unofficial Cm-13.0 builds while the official builds were being worked on. :)

You're the best. :good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jeremybrown82:
This is perfect I will give it a go, thanks. I tried something similar, with the exception of not flashing internal storage /sdcard/emulated/0, but I will do it from ground zero.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jeremybrown82:
Did everything as you said, exactly. 3G works, but 4G does not...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
nj2 is the latest as far as i know. im just basing it off of whats listed in the source
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
Upstream commits have broken the build. im trying to debug it but im not having much luck.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] micbro:
I can also confirm that "sim cards" don't work at all as the rom constantly says that it was inserted and etc. Overall, this is a very good rom with some features that I didn't think would be possible for a first build, good job!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
Sim stuff have patches up stream that may have been merged. But im unable to kick out a build because of the issues with the ril.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] micbro:
Is it a common issue with various devices??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
Yes and no. It depends on the device for what I know the entire d2 series is having sim issues. Especially the CDMA variants. Also the ril seems to still be broken in one way or another and won't compile against the source.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
New build is finally out, it should have sim fixes as well as a working ril. Things that are probably still broken are camera/video and some other things.

also, no bootloader requirements, however, i still sugesst using the latest firmware NJ2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] micbro:
Thank you sooo much! good luck on the video and mic support!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shekinahsmoke:
tried to flash got stuck on CM splash ... didnt make it to boot ani.. I even tried the wipe caches thing. using Open Gapps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
Things are bound to be broken. It'll be some time before everything is working properly including a stable boot across devices. However, curiosity grips me. What rom were you coming from and did you do a dirty flash?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shekinahsmoke:
Clean flash all the way
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
My guess that if it has worked for others then you ended up with a bad download. A new image was built a couple days ago but there was a ton of new code added so I'll be running a new build soom
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wizzdome:
I enjoyed seeing the 6.0 on my d2spr. I had no problems getting it to install or boot... I found that if I install from people's rom L710VPUDNJ2 I had no issues except that I could not get it to boot after installing su. Also had a hard time at first installing gapps for this think I had a bad dl the first time. But definitely need 6.0 gapps to get it to run. Wondering myself if anyone managed to get root on this???
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
Since cm12.1 root was moved to the developer options. There is a known issue with SuperSU only use the built in root for now. And ill always recommend people run L710VPUDNJ2 firmware as that is what will allow for future rom support, IN FACT i plan on making it a requirement for my builds in the future.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wizzdome:
I see... From boot in was unable to even get into the sd card cause it asked for root which I thought was odd (must be new os security) Though I did not look into dev options and such... I will keep my eye out here and give another build a run... thanks for keeping this phone going =)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
Cm uses privacy guard for root now. You enable it in dev options. The only SuperSU that works on nexus' running marshmallow is SuperSU beta 2.52, but I doubt it works on cm13.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
Root for sdcard must mean they havent included the sdcard patch yet or it may have to do with how M handles sdcards http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/05/28/android-m-feature-spotlight-external-storage-can-be-adopted-as-true-internal-storage-or-accessed-normally-with-no-additional-apps/

The rumor mill says that the issues with cm13 and SuperSU is because cm13 builds with both busybox and toybox where as the nexus roms only include toybox.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lonelyskatter12:
Lags a bit when installing apps, but camera is working.

I use the Cm11 Camera, since I never like Cm12 Camera. Nice work ^-^
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lurker1126:
so overall this is working surprisingly well running your 12-4 build.

Only thing I have noticed so far is no microphone. couldnt record audio while recording video nor did the mic work in a call sadly.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
Huh, i thought i posted my 12-5 build. oh well. theres always been issues with the mic in prestable builds. what supprises me is that the camera is working. usually thats one of the last thing to be fixed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JRM_3:
Will this work with ND8? I don't wanna screw up my device
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
Builds before 12-4 will but they are lacking bug fixes, every build afterwards will only install on NJ2 as stated in the op. If there is a valid reason in which the latest firmware doesn't work on your device please let me know and I will look into re-adding older versions.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] maheboi:
Holy crap dude. I just realized im on nd8 and i flashed the 12/7 build anyway without thinking, it booted up just fine and things seemed to run pretty normal. However, in no way do i condone the use of these builds on ND8 baseband version. What you do with this info is your business. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
If I remember right nd8 is one version below nj2 so it should be OK. And I'm not surprised it installed its not heavily enforced since if the recovery has a list of valid versions and generally includes the latest even though it may not be installed, it will allow the rom to install.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
New build based on android 6.0.1 is up. dated December 9
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shekinahsmoke:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] min1968:
Any working functions/known bugs list?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] maheboi:
The aicp ROM has a lot of stuff working. Microphone and videos work. Will you add these e to your ROM?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
Have you tried the new build here to see if they work now?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
Haven't a clue

Please reread the first paragraph of the op.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jimmytwotimes.parker:
Flashed your latest update on my VM gs3 sph-l710. All went well except for no mobile data. My phone doesn't have sim card, but rom thinks it does. Went back to restore for now. Can't wait for this to be fixed. Looks sweet. Tanx for hard work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] min1968:
Did you set proper APN?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
For virgin, you have to flash apn fix
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
the s3 has an integrated hardware uicc that acts as a sim card. normally there isnt a problem unless the apn isnt available.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] meatfest1974:
...take a look at page 22 of the CM 12.1 for d2spr where madbat99 and PClouser helped me out with getting LTE to the VM d2spr:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3-sprint/development/rom-d2spr-cyanogenmod-12-1-t3074688/page22

...I wonder if there's an update to this APN fix because although I could text pics out, I couldn't receive pics; only a download button shows. Even when I try to manually modify the APN in Settings, my entry would vanish when I attempted to save it.

Meh. Honestly, this was a small sacrifice for a smooth ROM.

When I get time, I'll install this on my phone.

I mean, I've already got it downloaded.

Just gotta remember to backup first...

Carrier: Virgin Mobile

Firmware: L710VPUCNJ3

Recovery: twrp-2.8.7.2-d2spr-virgin-boost.img

ROM: cm-13.0-20151209-UNOFFICIAL-d2spr.zip

GApps: open_gapps-arm-6.0-stock-20151211.zip

APN Fix: Universal_vmu_ApnFix-v.R2.zip

Tonight I decided to try out CM13 for the 1st time so I tried the 12/9 build and on the initial boot I had mobile data until I restarted the phone. Then I received the "No SIM card" message. Then I saw that you uploaded the 12/11 build (although it shows 13.0.20151208 for the version) and started from scratch. Wiped all and flashed rom/gapps/apn fix and again mobile data worked until rebooted. So I tried once more wiping all and flashed rom/gapps/apn fix and mobile data continues to work even after numerous reboots.

Installation of apps from Google Play seem to install much faster on CM13 than they did on CM12.1

Bugs:

Camera - Switching to Video crashes camera

Camera - Front facing camera does not take pictures

Bluetooth audio does not work

Virgin Mobile voicemail bug still present in CM13 as it was in CM12

So far I am impressed with CM13. Now to test out using the SD card as internal storage.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Spanky':
So when I update this on my d2spr it takes awhile to optimize apps and by the time it's finishing my phone is really hot.. Any ideas?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
It's normal. Optimization is very resource intensive.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Spanky':
OK thanks for the responses
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Spanky':
[MENTION=5380554]Luniz2k1[/MENTION] I'm not sure if would help any.. But, the sprint s5 (that's what I have) had experienced internal storage format going into an endless bootlooop ... So if that's what you are experiencing than maybe give the s5 guys a talk to maybe they can help a little? Now we can format as internal and portable.. Also some GPS issue were just resolved.. Eh worth a shot I thought I'd share .... As mentioned before the d2spr and kltespr roms are like a mirror image and see the same issue we were having now on the d2spr .. Hope everything works out for you!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Luniz2k1:
I haven't had a chance yet to test the SD card as internal storage yet, but thanks for the heads up about it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Spanky':
Dude ya no problem I'm flashing onto a d2spr as we speak with a fresh sd card I'll check it for u and report back...

[MENTION=4487349]Lrs121[/MENTION] and to everyone else it seems the S5 bug that was pesent in an earlier build when formatting SD card as internal storage does NOT exist in the D2SPR as i just clean installed the latest rom and formated my SD card using internal storage option..it hangs at 20% for a few but then continues along :) ALSO if any errors do acure it was brought to my attention to format to fat32 on PC first and all goes smooth.. I did not have to do that tho
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Lrs121:
Wish i could test that feature. the only device i have that has an sdcard is nvidias original shieldtablet.

On another note theses builds may be the last i do for the d2spr. My friend that i was originally building them for upgraded to my old nexus 5. Ill keep doing them until the official nightlies come out. i may or may not continue early unoffical builds in the future but i have yet to decide if ill continue to do so.

as for the problems with virgin/boost may have to do with the ril changes the devs did. they did revert it in a way so this next build i do may or maynot work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Spanky':
Well I have your rom on mine and my fiancee's phone (she uses it every day) I have an s5 as my every day but it is working amazing! The sd card is working great! Calls work text work, video recording is bugged but its also still bugged on the s5 work around that I have found is the "snap" camera app video and pictures work perfect on the d2spr and s5 with that app..
