I have the same issue, works great for a few hours, then the settings turn all white.

You can still change the settings, but you can't tell what you change since everything is white.

Any idea what causes this?

No trouble on v7.5, reinstalled v7.8 3 times with the same result.

I haven't collected any logs, since I have no idea when or why it happens.

I don't tend to keep an eye on my settings all the time.

Thanks on advance and for all the great work so far from the devs!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
Changing the theme fixes it.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Nahojii:
So it's a theming issue then? Never had that issue before on any rom. Any idea what may cause it?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
No idea. But changing the theme fixed it.

Add

There is an App by Chummy called Theme Rebuilder. That may fix it.

Chummy believes with CM that flashing a new ROM can require the themes to be rebuilt.

WHAT THIS DOES:*If you ever tried dirty flashing with a theme applied on your device, and you realize everything is completely messed up (white notification background with white text), QS tiles are all wrong icons, things started force closing, etc.....then this app is for you! This clears the overlay apks from the cache and rebuilds it on the next reboot. Be sure to read the dialog first!

Idk if it's only my bad luck or what, but seems like it's still not fixed.. I still can't upload videos to my Instagram :crying::crying:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
Sorry about that.

Try dirty flashing the latest CM 13 nightly and see if it works. If it doesn't help and others have the same problem uploading to Instagram, you will know it is a CM issue.

But the decoding issue seems to be fixed when playing media.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mohand06:
Updated: change shutter sound . You have to replace the default camera_click.ogg in your /system/media/audio/ui by your own camera_click.ogg (it has to be .ogg)

Hello guys,

I am still running version 6, because I want a stable device over the newest code. But I am thinking of upgrading now, since I have the free time. :)

Is anybody having issues with 7.8 after having the phone run for two days? Things I am looking for:

-WiFi randomly disconnecting & reconnecting again

-problems finding Cellular Network and if found, mobile data is not activated for a few minutes (requires manual disable/enable or reboot)

-laggyness after at least two days of usage

These are the issues that I have with version 6, overall phone performance becomes a bit worse the longer the device runs until eventually a hot reboot happens in the middle of me doing something, lol. :D

Great thanks for the Devs for supporting this grandpa of a device and thanks to all users who might help me out with my "special question". :)

Have a great weekend guys!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] stefanomc:
If you want a stable version, install the last version whit a new installation from zero, and you find a new phone!!! ???

Do I still need to follow this flash procedure?

Flash Rom

Flash Gapps

Flash Rom again

Flash kernel

Reboot?

---------- Post added at 12:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:53 AM ----------

For the life of me, upon doing the procedures that I posted it still leads to a bootloop, the flash procedure went well but the 1st boot was taking too long.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] g104:
the procedure u mentioned is for clean install or u format /system

literally, android optimizing for 90 apps is free long is quite common.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] iceman0826:
Maybe the reason why I'm always stuck at the 1st boot after clean flashing the rom is bcoz of this?

~ patching system image unconditionally-

I'm using TWRP f2fs version.

Why does is do that? Flashing Temasek CM11 doesn't exhibit those issues? (patching system image)

---------- Post added at 01:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:20 AM ----------

Yes I went for the Full clean install, Wiped all partitions.

So how many minutes should I wait, before I conclude that it's stuck on a bootloop? Coz in Temasek CM11 I just waited 2mins. from the 1st boot.

---------- Post added at 02:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:26 AM ----------

Anyone?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kippy51:
Well, that message ' patching image' etc. I see everytime I (dirty) flash. But after that 2 more messages (don't remember what). Lastly you see in the top bar: successfull. And then you can reboot.

Sometimes it can take 5 minutes or so before boot finishes.

Hi.

I have a problem with android M, whichever version I flash.

I can't swipe notification bar, I can only swipe it once, but when I try to swipe it again, won't.. And the lockscreen, when it is set to just swipe, doesn't show.. This problem occures, in temasek, in official CM13, and all others android M ROMs.

I tried to flash stock ROM, with odin, and wipe all memorys, internal included, but problem stays. What could it be? :confused::confused::confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] dioen:
There is only one for contacts which is permited. Should I try installing newest gapps over those I already have? Won't be there a bootloop?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] iceman0826:
So what are the prerequisites prior to installing this rom? I mean successfully?

Upon the 1st boot (temasek logo) typically how many minutes do I need to wait before I conclude that it is boot looping?

Temasek CM11 doesn't take too long to finish the 1st boot up sequence compared to this one.

So I guess this is a step down in the right direction.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sma5hley:
Why are you flashing the ROM again after gapps? Flashing the rom formats system, so you would have lost the gapps you just installed.

For clean:

Format: System, Dalvik, Cache.

Flash ROM + Gapps

Reboot.

If you want Custom Kernel add that during your flash routine, after the rom..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] iceman0826:
I read in the previous post that temasek added some scripts that lead to gapps being wiped, but I already followed the above standard procedure of clean flashing (i.e. Format ALL partitions, Flash ROM, Gapps, Kernel then Wipe Data/cache and Reboot) but to no avail, still stuck on the boot logo but I don't know how long do I have to wait before I classify this as a Boot Loop.

And upon flashing the Rom, it always says this "patching system image unconditionally". So I guess it was must something to do with what I'm facing right now. Using/FLashing Temasek CM11 doesn't produce this symptom, btw I'm using the latest TWRP.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sma5hley:
The unconditional patching is standard now for CM based Roms. Same thing on stock CM13.

In case you have accidentally formatted a partition you need, I would suggest flashing the stock Samsung Rom from Odin, and then starting from scratch.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] iceman0826:
Block Based Builds

I guess the reason why there are some (like me) who are experiencing "patching system image unconditionally" which leads to problems like (i.e. stuck on boot logo for 10mins and counting, stuck on flashing) is because of this block based method, which I think looks for the preload partition.

To all who wants to use this rom, I suggest you flash a stock rom first (the last JB stock rom from samsung)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] orsonbear:
If nothing works to avoid bootloops, try:

1 - delete all the named ”.secure” ”Android” "data" files or folders you may find in both internal or external sd card. Use a root file browser with the "show hidden files" option ON or (much better) the twrp recovery embedded file manager to make this. Then in recovery wipe all normally and flash the rom.

Only if nothing works yet:

2 - By recovery format the internal SD card. Then wipe blah blah...

Only if nothing works yet:

3- By recovery format the external SD card. Then wipe blah blah...

I hope this helps!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] iceman0826:
Finally made it work

I finally passed the 1st boot which is around 2mins, prior to that I flashed through Odin the last JB Stock rom of Samsung, and it fixed the partition tables back to stock.

Then I went on to Clean Flash this rom. :good:

My only gripe is that the built-in SU is not enough for Titanium Backup, and flashing SU's will lead to boot loop, so I went back on Temasek CM11 again till CM or SU's developer sort this out.

But I must say when it comes to smoothness and stability it was on par with Temasek CM11 unlike the Temasek CM12.1 which is kinda laggy and unstable.

I will keep an eye on this thread since Temasek CM13 is quite impressive (smoothness/stability) given that it's still very young in the development scene. :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kippy51:
I'm running TB Pro on my S3 with Temasek and it works just fine with build-in SU; my father in law runs TB free/Temasek/build-in SU and his is fine as well! So I don't know what is wrong with your setup.

Edit: Did you set TB up like this??

Titanium Backup to access the external SD

1- Go to Preferences -> Backup Folder Location.

2- Click on Storage provider at the top (it's not obvious that it's clickable).

3- Click on DocumentProvider storage. That will take you to a File Manager interface. You may have to click on the 3-dot menu on the top-right to enable the (external) SD card to be shown, then click the menu lines in the top-left and select your SD card, and click the "Select" at the bottom right. (You don't have to select your Titanium Backup folder here, you're just using this to get access to your SD Card.)

4- Now you should be back in Titanium Backup and you can browse like you used to to get to your preferred backup folder on your external SD Card

Hi everyone. I'm currently using latest Archidroid (lollipop) but I'm a bit tired of the frequent lagging and the battery life is becoming worse and worse although I replaced the battery for a new one. I'm thinking on upgrading to CM13.

So I was just wondering, how is your battery life with this ROM? Is it stable? Does it laggs?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
I have used Titanium Back Up on every version of this ROM using ONLY the system SU.

You have to enable SU in Settings.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] iceman0826:
Yes I did that, and TB runs ok, but when I tried to uninstall a system app (the default sms/message app) through TB and rebooted, the said system app appears again.

Hi guys

Not seen this problem on this thread but it is around the internet...

"Unfortunately gallery has stopped".

This happens when opening the camera app. Tried clearing data/cache of everything and even factory reset. It doesn't happen until I install Nova Launcher. Doesn't happen with Trebuchet or Apex. I can immediately go back to those launchers and can then open the camera. I am running build v8.0 although it happens with previous versions, again though, only with Nova installed. Anyone got any idea why it happens with Nova?

Thanks, Tim
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Madirdmalaga:
I think you must delete the camara icon of Nova and reemplace for the camara app of the rom. Lucky

I am running this rom for 2 days and i had to reflash back to the older android 5.1.1 cyanogenmod because of the short battery life, as soon as i turn on the screen the phone gets hot and the battery drains fast.

The rom feels pretty fast and i like to use it when this problem is solved.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Behemoth1702:
Try using 3C Toolbox , open Task Manager, make sure you enable display of "Excluded, System, Kernel" apps and check what's using up most CPU. For me after flashing Temasek v8 the "contacts" app was sitting @ 25% all the time, heating up the device. I tried reporting this to the official CM nightlies thread but no response. As usual, forums are overflowing.

"Normal" is a very poor choice of words. This is not normal at all. And 6x is not a temperature value. At least put some work into your posts man, please.

Were you able to find out, if any specific app was using up all the CPU ressources? I am thinking of flashing v8 but dirty flashing didn't work very well. So I am still on version 6.0.

hi, it's constantly interrupted connection during a call with the phone, sound can not be heard!if the latest baseband modem zip link please?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Tapewormlatvia:
The easiest way for me is editing the following file:

Open "m0" in System/Etc/Sound (but do not change the permissions). Please note that some text editors mess up the layout, and it's difficult to read. Find one which works best for you. I use root browser's included RB Text Editor

Then scroll down until you see:

</path>

<device name= "speaker">

A couple of lines below (under path name "On"), you should see the following line:

<ctl name="Speaker Volume" val="57"/>

This refers to the

MAX VOLUME

that will go out of the back speaker. The higher the number - the louder the max sound. However, the max allowed value is 63 - and that is pretty loud and distorted. I usually stick to 61.

If you decide to go higher than 63, the speaker will not work at all, until you lower the value.

Similarly, if you change the speaker volume value under path name "Off" - you will change the

minimum

loudness. By default, and obviously, it is set to 0. But if you want, you can make it so that your speaker never goes silent by increasing this value.

Also, if you want to play with other outputs, look for their appropriate entries:

<device name= "earpiece"> is the speaker on the front (used in calls). I usually decrease Output Volume value to 48, because I find the default volume to be too loud.

<device name= "headphone"> refers to the max volume pumped out of the audio jack, be it headphones, or some speakers.

And then there are values for things that I do not change like, dock volume, microphone volume, and others.

NB!

Note that you need to save the file, and restart your phone for the changes to take effect. And after each flash, the file is reset, and so are your custom values.

Question about charging

Hi everyone, I would like my PowerBank (external battery) to keep charging my phone until it's empty. But as soon as the phone is fully charged it stops and to restart it I have to push a button. I need a method of constant charging without pressing a button - because I would like to use it on the Motorcycle .. not having to worry about my battery draining. I'm asking this here because I suspect that it may have to do something with the ROM. Anyone? Cheers
