I think battery drain seems to be an issue some are facing including me and some maybe not. I tried all 4 builds and the drain is indeed noticable in battery. Miscellaneous makes the run and eats my battery like king. Everytime I made a fresh clean install, just for notice.

But as I am not able to log something und I know it is in Alpha stage this shouldn't be a complain only a notice, that battery drain seems to be present :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Scorpionea:
Miscellaneous is not a battery drain at all,reread his purpose and why is there

I remember same thing started when cm.12 was in development and people thought miscellaneous was a drain but it was not

Battery is fine for me no complaints

Thanks for making this clear. Still strange why I can watch my battery percentage going down very fast after clean install of cm13, but when going back to cm12.1 everything is alright.

Do u notice this rom is way to early in development and many things still need to be fixed and optimized ,so u can't compare this rom to anything else just yet :)

Developers has just started to work on this, still many many things do to untill it gets properly stable and most thing to work

I was randomly looking onto CM gerrit and found that the developer is trying to fix the RIL issues. ( phone process restarts when then other person cuts the call).

In the next build, it will be fixed. :D

[MENTION=5606779]Scorpionea[/MENTION] do you also face the optimizing app bug?

[MENTION=5405215]forkbomb444[/MENTION], my kernel isn't booting. I built it using the CM source and the patch you mentioned, but it goes into a bootloop. Any idea why?

Bootloop maybe issue block based format :))
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JohnSmit268:
Have problem in booting

I clean flashed the build 4 of rom without gapps and it didn't pass the Samsung gt-i9300 logo kinda a bootloop then I clean flashed it with gapps still no booting then I dirty flashed it on my cm 12.1 that I backed up before flashing and installed gapps again no booting!! I'm really confused. My twrp is the latest version. I used open gapps aroma
[Galaxy S III Android Development] odyss199:
what i did was flashing a cm12.1 rom without gapps, boot into it and let the art optimize , then rebooted to twrp and flashed cm13

hello i want to ask about this rom ..... i managed to get it to boot with dirty flashing it on cm12.1 but can someone tell me if dirty flashing will afect battery life or stability ?????? please help ????? :(
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sunny1234590:
Nope, it won't much however, it can. I wonder why people are not able to do a clean install!

---------- Post added at 09:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:01 PM ----------

I can confirm that the ROM is pretty smooth with some flaws here and there.

Things I would like to mention:

1. I used Stock version of GApps

2. Phone process crashes when the other person cuts the call

3. Optimizing app bug is a pain!!

4. Sound quality is Good.

5. In love with the multitasking and smoothness

For an Alpha it's a pretty tough build. Looking forward to future updates. :)

Also, I cannot see the WiFi turning off on standby when the data is ON! So, I think that's not a bug. Although, it would be good if anyone else also confirm this. [MENTION=5405215]forkbomb444[/MENTION]
[Galaxy S III Android Development] :
I can not confirm the bug with optimizing bug. I can normally reboot my phone
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sunny1234590:
I think I should flash this ROM again! Will report back
[Galaxy S III Android Development] knuckles1978:
I had huge miscellaneous battery drain, but with build 4 it's totally gone. Battery life is great. Phone is running faster than with any previous version of android.

This ROM is awesome... :D

I hope this will be fixed in next build, but just in case if it will not, what is the best workaround for AOSP keyboard crashes? I can't even enter my google account credentials to install another keyboard from play store. Should i just download an APK and install it manually, or there is a better way?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] :
Please, read the Thread or use the search. This question is already answered bro!

Flash rom, don't boot. In TWRP go to FileManager. Mount /system and delete this file: system/lib/libjni_latinimegoogle.so

Or go through the Setup Wizard. Install google. keyboard.apk (download it with your "old" rom! Now you can add google account and so on
[Galaxy S III Android Development] TareqA:
You will have to get the apk file thats the easiest way I'm afraid :(

Bug report

I tried it out. It was goddamn fast. Tough build though for an alpha one.

But the phone is not usable yet in my opinion.

Bugs that I faced( sorry if repetitive ):

1. Need to be flashed dirty over cm 12.1 !?!

2. After pressing The edit tiles, tile and press add icon the system ui force stops.

3. If the person you are talking to hangs up you phone process will be shot down and you'll have to restart.

4. The lock screen shortcut button in security section of the setting cause setting app to force stop.

5. Switch to 2G or any other network than 3G is impossible even from the testing mode section.

6. Clear data in twrp cause bootloop like you never flashed your rom over cm 12.1.

7. Internet can't be turned on in my country (Iran). It is operator issues too but in cm12.1 it used to turn on(I USE HSPAP MODE).

8. And other things that I have missed.

I've something strange. I installed build 4 cm-13.0-20151206-UNOFFICIAL-i9300.zip on top of build 3.

The issue is that I still see in About phone details that CyanogenMod version is 13.0.20151205-UNOFFICIAL-i9300 and build date is Sat Dec 5.....

I installed it on top of build 3 without factory reset.

Any insight why it happened? How I can install build 4?

Just clean flashed build 4 using TWRP 2.8 6.1

No problems here. Fully booted in about 4 minutes.

Maybe TWRP 2.8.7.0/3 is causing the problems??

Only thing so far is the AOSP keyboard crashing, even after removing the lib thing first.

Apart from that it feels very smooth and looks very good for an ALPHA build

Thank you [MENTION=5405215]forkbomb444[/MENTION] for these impressive alpha builds.

Just to report non-working GPS with its logcat on Build 4.

=== what you did ===

Tested GPS using GPS Status app.

=== what happened (i.e. the bug) ===

The app showed no GPS satellites detected at all.

=== what you expected to happen (how it worked on CM 12.1) ===

The app should have shown a number of GPS satellites detected.

=== link to logcat ===

sorry ignorance, but how do I do this logcat ??
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JohnSmit268:
Search logcat in playstore then you can find some apps to record logcats.

I myself use catlog app. This way is the easy way though. The hard way will go to pc and adb. If you use catlog app open it then grant root permission and go to menu and choose record, set a file name for your logcat then trigger the bug and after that stop the record from the notification bar. The logcat file will go to the catlog folder into the saved_logs folder. Upload it somewhere or paste it to pastebin then. Or anyway you wish to do it.?

My friend has been talking to him and he has given people permission basically to port his kernel if they wish to do so. However I was just wondering if anyone else would be up for helping since we can't let such a kernel to just die and surely many if not all would agree with me. This is all because he said that he'll only make another kernel for CM13 if there's an official version of CM13 which there never will be so he won't actually make another one and has left the I9300 for dead and I don't blame him because it's an old device but still it's big with the modding community and I want to let it taste 6.0 in all it's glory before letting it go.

If you want the bug to be fixed a logcat can help the dev to do it so, specially when some bugs is only happening to special phones not every phone so even if the dev have the phone he can't fix some bugs without logcats.

No need I'm in contact with him and so is my friend. I have clarified what his stand on the matter is and as I said he won't make another kernel unless CM is official and that stands. Also as I said he pretty much gave permission to people that wish to port the kernel to do so and I even got it from him when I spoke to him so it's cool. Now it's just a matter of when the development of the unofficial Boeffla Kernel starts. Help would be appreciated so once again if anyone would be up for helping it'd be great.

then I went to stock recovery I saw the error "efs: unable to mount.."

SO I googled it and I saw this post http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/general/how-to-fix-efailed-to-mount-efs-invalid-t28

I did the steps and it booted but since then on all roms I cant use data and on all tw roms on holding power button for just 2 sec it shutsdown instead showing the powermenu and also there is no lockscreen even if I have one setuped

Please help me guys

EDIT :

Fixed it ...

Had to turn off the factory mode!!!

Everything is working fine now

fix p2p wifi (screen mirroring should work now)

fix network dropouts on hang up

Remember to wipe cache and dalvik after flashing!

Oh, and on a few of the bugs that have been reported:

GPS doesn't work, I don't think it has in any of the public builds, I'm trying to fix it.

Facebook/Messenger not installing? Actually a feature - Improves battery life significantly (just kidding)

Still get optimizing apps on every boot? Wipe dalvik and cache

Still getting bugs that have been fixed? Wipe system, dalvik, cache and reflash ROM+gapps.

Bootlooping? Make sure you flash ROM and gapps *directly after* each other. Otherwise you will bootloop.

On custom kernels:

No, I will not help you build $kernel, beyond linking to the CM sources. I will not help you when it bootloops. Those are your problems if you want to maintain a kernel, not mine.

he can't change version because of all TWRP official build since now (all device) still on v 2.8.7.0
