After a minute of a YouTube video playing in 720/60 the video stops playing and you can only hear audio. Better?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ibuprophen:
To be honest... There can be a number of things that can cause that to happen.

It could be anything from the app itself to an Internet connection to the apps connection to YouTube etc...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] alado221:
I am hopping someone can replicate it because it feels like the phone is struggling with the 60fps option. Thanks anyways.

I see an updated CM14.1 dated 12/12 was just released...

Anyone see any improvements as to the GApps Pico and the other previous issue that was happening with the d2vzw?

Though I'm a little hesitant to try it, I'll probably go for it tomorrow.

Just wondering if anyone else tried it yet and the outcome...

If memory serves me correctly, 60fps has never worked for this phone. I don't think the technology was in this phone quite yet and is a hardware limitation
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ibuprophen:
Well I tried the last 2 CM14.1 releases for the d2vzw and they all resulted in the same outcome...

I must have tried a half dozen times using the ROM and 4 different GApps packages from Pico to Mini and still it reflects that the Provider is "Unknown", Play Store is unable to access the Internet (though the Browser and CM Updater can) and though, I can see everything on my External MicroSD, it gives an error when i try to open, read, write, move, etc...

I don't know what in the world is wrong with Cyanogenmod... I don't know how to report these issues since reporting them on their forums go unanswered, emails even to [MENTION=2385005]invisiblek[/MENTION] go unanswered or even unconfirmed, etc....

The only thing I can think of is reporting the issues from within one of (and not sure which) their Github page and, i feel, that if i do that, all I'll receive is a lecture that either i submitted my issue in the wrong place or something that ultimately ignores me.

This is why i love the XDA Forums. It's a place that doesn't ultimately ignore me.

I'm also aware of other members who are successful with CM14.1 for the d2vzw device and I'm truly and honestly happy for you but, I'm hoping (absolutely not wishing upon) someone (sometime) who has experienced these issues and has, somehow, found a solution.

Okay, I decided, one of my Christmas Wishes will be the ability to find a way to figure out what in the world is going on as well as a solution to this problem.

Do me a favor. Reboot your phone, then immediately try to access the Play Store from the app, 3 times exactly, exiting the app in-between each time. Right after you do that, capture audit.log, dmesg.log, event.log, last_kmsg.log, and finally the logcat.log. SYSLOG is a great app for grabbing these exact logs. Don't change anything in the program from defaults, just tell it to grab the main log. If you do it right after the Play Store incident, it will contain very detailed information related to what is happening. I will look at them as soon as you can post them.

Where does cm1 stand bug wise? What would you like me to do to help and further improve the performance??? :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dltccf:
I am seeing the gapps problem also. I went through the various fixes including loading and old version of gapps from november 17th. still no luck. google maps works, but play store says no internet, gmail sits at 'getting your messages' forever. I was about to chalk it up to gapps when I tried CyanogenMod updates and when I hit refresh I get 'The update check failed, please check your internet connection and try again later.'

In the browser I can reach mail.google.com, cyanogenmod.org etc.

First Run of CM14.1 - Initial Report

I love that this device has CM14.1, big thanks [MENTION=2385005]invisiblek[/MENTION]. I did a clean install of today's build (12/15) using opengapps Nano via TWRP 3.0.2 with no install issues at all. Wifi, playstore, external sd (I did not reformat, using exfat as external storage), file manager (Root Explorer & Solid Explorer), general copy/paste/storage actions, and audio are all working as they should unlike some of the reports here. Fast and smooth so far. I'll keep my findings posted here as I use the device more, but my usage is limited as I disable the cellular radio and use this phone strictly as a media player.

So others know - you can run this command from a root shell

setprop persist.radio.noril 1

and it will disable the cellular radio (wifi will still work). This is a fantastic bit of code that invisiblek added in to allow you to basically turn the phone into a wifi only tablet which saves a ton of battery power by not constantly searching for a cell signal (which it does even if data is turned off). Google should bake that into the Android source.

First time running CM14.1, so far I'm impressed. I thought I read somewhere that CM's 7.0 builds would have a global dark mode? Did I dream that or is it there and hidden?

My device is WiFi only at the moment. I've seen this occur on mine, but pressing the button to reload play store does get it to load. Whenever updating apps, it appears it tries to download things and stops before it starts. Attempting to download multiple times does eventually get it working. Gmail intermittently works, but doesn't seem to work on command. I've been using Inbox with no issues. I'm assuming these problems are with CM 14 and will be fixed fairly quickly. Other than these minor issues, everything else appears to be working
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ibuprophen:
I must have press the retry/refresh in the play store at least a dozen times and i know it's trying but, no luck.

I can check for CM updates and browse the web on the browser without an issue.

Also, I can see everything in the MicroSD but, it provides an error if i try to view, read, write, copy, etc... But, only within the MicroSD. I've booted into recovery and copied some files and folders successfully from the MicroSD to a location in the internal sdcard then, when I boot back into the ROM, i have no problems at all with installing, reading writing, copying, etc... With those files i copied to the internal sdcard. This is truly a challenge I'm adamant on figuring out.

I still have the installation logs and I'm going to post a few lines that seem to look out of the ordinary.

I'll be back and paste those lines...

Hmmmmm that's very strange. Is your SD card formatted as portable or internal? Mine is set to internal. I just attempted to move files around and it seems to work for me

What happens if you turn your mobile data off and try to access Play Store over just WiFi? Same result, or does it work?

Here's the exact text from the installation log file. This was located at the end of the flashing of the ROM and before the GApps was to begin to be flashed...

Those lines refer to the CM14.1 flash (to be honest, it was located at the completion of the ROM flash). And they were the only ones within the whole the log that reflect any installation issues/arguments.

Any thoughts?

FYI... To reiterate, i ONLY selected the CM14.1 and the GApps 7.1 ARM Pico to be flashed. I usually install SuperSU to be flashed after the GApps package but, I intentionally left it out to rule it out for any contributions to the issue (which I obviously did since the same issues were present without it).

EDIT: I attached the installation log...

Well, Ibuprophen, I offered to help, and got met with yet another one of your sarcastic comments... As i stated before, I work with Invisiblek directly on issues, and any DEV will tell you that the logs I asked for WILL be the logs that contain the needed information. Your install logs and such do not contain the needed information...

Just an FYI.... Flail around as you may (see pic below), the path to the answers that you seek........... Nevermind. I am not going to continue to offer you help... I showed you right from the START, I was in the loop on this project, and you were not.... I tried to be nice to you, even after you constantly tried to misdirect people in the other thread about the fact that there was even an "Official" coming....

This is just a result of (and what I've always tried to express) texting something that involves an emotion but, is mistaken in another meaning. This is an example of that.

I also need to get my "Rear End" up and get my S4 turned on and test my S3 (in question) while communicating with you on what to try and what the results are.

Since I am having the same issue I can try to gather the logs for you, however, I may need a little more instruction on how. when you say syslog are you referring to the tool in the play store? Do you know where there is a version I can sideload since I can't get to the play store? I can get to the terminal if I reboot into the teamwin recovery but I don't have the su terminal loaded, or are you using adb?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Stealth111:
Ibuprophen, No hard feelings man! :)

I really just want to HELP YOU! lol

Yes, I 100% agree, that you can never convey your true emotion or demeanor when talking in a forum like this... It is EASILY taken out of context! If you would like to post me the requested logs, I will happily check them out for you.. I agree, you should be able to install, and move on, but you need to also remember we are very early in production on this ROM for our device. There was more of a likelihood that it would have never come to be, than actually happening... I am super stoked that it made it out of unofficial status...

We are all here as volunteers to help others with issues, and I am no exception... I am the same as you, and have been in your shoes more times than I can count. I have also been dealt responses ranging from helpful, to all all attacks! I don't want this to happen here.... The quicker we can identify issues, the quicker this ROM becomes perfect. You must agree, that for being into the first 5 builds or so, we are more stable than CM13 was after months of development. If everyone here will keep participating in this thread, we can work out issues as quickly as possible...

Thanks again for your patience and understanding! :)

Awesome!

The tool you will want to use to make it easy is: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tortel.syslog&hl=en

You can also find the apk file hosted on many "other" site for direct install outside of the Play Store... Just make sure you are downloading the latest version, and verify the file sizes to make sure you are getting and accurate file.. Just be CAREFUL, as there are many many apk hosting sites out delivering absolute ****... :)

Or you could grab it from another phone, then backup the apk file and send it to yourself and then install normally... Once you fire up the program, you literally just hit the "Take Log" button in the middle of the app. (Make sure all 5 logs are selected at the top). It will generate a nice zip file ready for posting!

And one more note, now cyanogenmod updates shows two new nightlies, so I assumed it was working, but when you attempt to download it doesn't.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Stealth111:
Can the people with the download issues check to see if you have this on your device? /system/framework/tcmclient.jar

Also, are you on strictly cellular data when you try, or wifi, or both (meaning you have in the developer options enable to "always keep cellular data active" which keeps it enable even when connected to wifi.)

Also, are any of you on a Verizon Network Extender? Actually, I can see one of you are... :)

If you are using a network extender, please make sure you enable "data while roaming" as well, and let me know if that changes anything.. I have lived with, and fought with my S3's behind Network Extenders for years, and like I said before, it is VERY finicky when you are on one... I will say this in the same breath, I upgraded to the new 4G LTE extender, and ALL of my spotty Network Extender Connection issues went away IMMEDIATELY... The reason i say that is, when I was on my old Network Extender, I would see similar things in my logs, showing the connection jumping from "Connected to UNKNOWN" in the logs, and then back and forth. Enabling Data while Roaming helped with the issues back then as well...

I am still looking into the logs right now...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dltccf:
I do not have /system/framework/tcmclient.jar

I am on the older NE.

I have turned on data while roaming.

I have tried it with wifi only, data only, and both.

none of the changes yet has made a difference. Where can I get the missing file? latest nightly perhaps?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Stealth111:
I am assuming so, but, have you tried it off the Network Extender? Like literally unplug the extender, do the clean install and see if you have any connection issues. I know it sounds funny, but back in the days, on the old extender, when I would do a clean install, then I would install my Verizon Visual Voicemail apk, it literally mattered if I connected to VVM the first time while on extender or not. If I was on it, it rarely worked after that. If I connected OFF the extender the first time, it worked almost all the time afterwards. It was a security type problem. The stored authentication was getting generated differently when I was on extender or off it. I don't have an old one anymore, so I am curious if it is still causing some small issues... Worth a check... Let me know!

P.S. Check out the new TWRP App! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.twrp.twrpapp

No, I do not have this jar file located there.

I connect to the WiFi during the setup process.

Actually, speaking of the WiFi connection in CM14.1, there were instances where the WiFi had suddenly gotten weird. Out of nowhere, it would keep the WiFi connected but, there was no Internet (as it would state "Connected, no Internet"). I would try forgetting and reconnecting, resetting the network then reconnecting and it would result in the same way "Connected, no Internet".

I never ever touched the "always keep cellular data active" option.

To add, I had never needed to touch any of those connection options within the Developer Options.

I have never ever used a Network Extender. Had looked into it years ago but, had never went went through to get one.

Also, another thing that I just realized, when I'm going through the initial setup, after the WiFi is connected, the network provider screen reflects a strong signal but, labeled it as "Unknown". Then, when I'm done with the initial setup, i go into the network settings and the APN's are all correct and ready to go. It was odd.

Accelerometer issues?

I've been daily driving the cm14 nightlies for a few weeks now and have been very pleased with them. There are some quirks but nothing fatal. Some time around December 10 the accelerometer stopped working. I use the pacer app (cc.pacer.androidapp) to track steps and it stopped working then. and is still broken with cm-14.1-20161219 (also checked with several other tracker apps with the same results).
