Hello. Just installed this rom and it looks and works awesome BUT 4 things doesn't work imho.

1. In contacts I can not see SIM CARD contacts even if I'am trying to import from SIM CARD it shows 0 whilst stock rom was displaying them ok.

2. Another thing is I can't see Google Play installed. I found some apk in the web, downloaded and installed it but it doesn't work (app is not starting).

3. Also I can't find where I could add gmail profile. I added it as just an ordinary email in contacts but it is not showing it there.

4. I can't charge it to 100%. It displays like 70% at "full" charge.

Help!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
Yes. I discovered that power saving mode does not impair function other than controlling notifications. What it does do is ensure it sleeps deeply.

---------- Post added at 01:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:06 AM ----------

1. I read on the official Lineage forum that LoS 14.1 does not work with sim card contacts.

2. & 3. If you cannot connect to Google Playstore or 3. add a Google account, either you did not install the ROM & GAPPs correctly using TWRP, as described in OP1 or you did not sign into Google when making initial settings after installation. Check to see if you have Google Play Services installed. Without that no Google apps or Playstore will work. If Google Play Services is not installed, you need to reinstall the ROM & GAPPs correctly.

4. I have NEVER seen a report on any forum of a battery failing to fully charge. I cannot help with that.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Samofr:
If you still didnt install v2.4, no problem connecting phone to pc and transferring files :good:

Still testing the battery life though..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MacLeod100:
Well for allmoust 2 days of testing the battery 4 me was maximum 2 hours :( using beffla kernel beta 10 and the phone got so hot i have to take out the battery to let him cool

connecting to pc - i use SuperBeam so no ideea :D

Battery draining so fast.Can someone help about this problem?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
Remove your battery and see if you can spin it easily on a table. ~If you can, it means that the battery is swollen and is dying.

Once the stock battery starts to fail, it drains faster than it charges.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ArdaCsknn:
This is not a problem on a Sam based ROMs only happening on 5.0-7.1.I switch it an hour ago and I had 2.5 hours screen on time on 4.3.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
Well I posted screenshots yesterday showing that after a clean install of crDroid 2.4, I could run my device for 36 hours with power save turned on.

So it is not the ROM.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ArdaCsknn:
This is why Im trying to solve problem because when I switch to non Samsung based Roms this problem occurs.I looked at statistics you sended and it looks like something going wrong on Cyanogen and Los based ROMs on my device.I'm not blaming the ROM just trying to solve this problem.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] eurotubes:
Thx for that great rom, 2.4 is running superb!

Still having trouble with my 3G signal and I wonder if it could be a broken antenna? Is it possible to check the antenna?

Or could it be a wrong modem, I'm in germany and on I9300XXUGNA8? Is this the right Modem? What are you guys using. Thanks in advance!!

EDIT: I forgot to mention, the problem is still a big battery drain when switching to 3G, and the 3G Signal never gets more then 50%. 2G is fine.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
When I was running Temasek's CM13 based ROM, I demonstrated that completely wiping all internal storage, removing all the junk and possible spyware, significantly improved battery life.

Try running the ROM in safe mode and see how it runs. If battery life is much better then you know that some third party app or spyware on your device is causing the problem. You could also run a virus/malware app to see if there is a problem.

When running Temasek's CM13 ROM, I had one playstore app which was affecting sound quality on telephone calls. IEventually I discovered which app it was. I removed it and the problem was fixed.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] a3des:
I also don't have any battery drain problem, one charge will last for a whole day of moderate usage, at 22-23 PM I still have ~30% battery available.

For the first time I have tried out some moderate undervoltage for both cpu and gpu but it doesn't turned out pretty well, I had some self reboots in standby mode. Worth to mention I am using the "Suspend actions" - mobile data off when screen off, this has replaced and app I was using before (Auto 3g). The problem with "suspend actions" feature is that it doesn't allow periodic data sync, Auto 3G has that feature, letting you sync data for a desired time periodically.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ArdaCsknn:
OK let me try the safe mod.

Cant add attachments to the my latest reply so I'm writing new message.I wiped fully my phone so much so that's not the point.Do you know any app which I can see what's draining my battery?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] a3des:
BetterBatteryStats in Play store, but it's not free, try to look for similar apps. But in many cases Battery section in Settings will give you the needed info.

I just don't get it it is bad or not but feels bad.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] a3des:
Why is that you screen on time was 90%, did you run some test?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ArdaCsknn:
Nah I was using it.And also phone booted up when charge was %58 it wasnt %100.But I charged it to %100 and put it on my bed.Never used and it dropped down to %92 without using it.I will wait 6PM without touching it and will send a screenshot of results.

Long pressing the screenshot button gives a System UI force close?

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Jack123hello:
Long pressing screenshot button in status bar should bring you to stock gallery app. If you have uninstalled or disabled default gallery, System UI will restart
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sunny1234590:
Oh okay. I have photos app, that's why.

Thanks!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ArdaCsknn:
Idling 5 hours and drained %20 without using.So that's what I am saying about drainage.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
If you use power saving in battery options, set to prevent notifications disturbing doze, the 20% will fall to 10%, or less.

It can be toggled on or off in quick settings.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ArdaCsknn:
In my opinion after 4.4 I just can't use these ROMs as a daily driver so its better just get back to the outdated 4.3.I'm always giving a chance but I'm always dlssappointing.And only problem is not the drainage.Distorted and low volume and some codec failures on browsers video players.Minor fps problems on 3d games.I think our devices can handle the latest OSes but not without Samsung s own drivers and software.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
Most of the Apps I use simply would not work on such an outdated ROM, but you must run the ROM which works best for you. Good luck.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ArdaCsknn:
Yeah it sometimes sucks but I'm using common apps like YouTube Instagram Twitch and some games.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] a3des:
You can try using Greenify, if you have root it can handle system apps also.

I will try to test ro run idle power consumption tonight and let you know about it.

As for sound, volume and EQ settings, I am very satisfied with Boeffla kernel audio enhacements. I always increase minimum cpu frequency to 300.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Jack123hello:
I have the same feeling as well. In KitKat, animation lags during app transitions, but the animation is a lot better in nougat. However, 3d games like mc5 is simply unplayable.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ArdaCsknn:
Tried Boeffla kernel yesterday and sound was still low and distorted.Tried to change some values in system files for audio but nothing helped(or at least I couldnt find it).Tried Viper and lowered bass and helped a little bit.Normally I can hear at %50 while watching something on Youtube but on cyanogen roms sometimed even %100 not enough.Multi tasking and surfing things faster than ever but I tried all Cyanogenmod and sam based roms since they are released and my main thinking is after 4.4 Roms these Roms are not for daily usage.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
They are very suitable for daily use as mobile phones. They are not suitable for use as a kids games console or for playing streaming video hour after hour.

For those functions one need a OnePlus 3T or better.

My 5 year old daughter can watch kids youtube all day on her Yoga phablet, without recharging the battery. Not sure it has enough memory for games, though.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ArdaCsknn:
You are talking about a stock phablet.What I am saying is these roms are stable (mostly) but has problems in it caused by user created drivers.Because your S3 looks like working normal.But mine and maybe some others has these problems.If im not wrong there are some different manufacturers for wifi and what I see my problem caused mostly by wifi wakelocks.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] papatzis:
H to all again

In the quick settings there are not sound settings as mute vibration etc , I had searched all the tiles am I missing something?

And somethng else although I had all volumes presets at 100% sound escecially system sounds are much lower that I have in my previous rom

Thanks in advance

BTW, have you calibrated your battery with any software after ROM is installed?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Vshu:

But after that I have done a clean installation of rom+gapps many times.:confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
Well I do not know what Modern Combat is, but if it is a game and it is has used up so much power you need either to bin your phone and but a One plus 3 or a much larger battery.

I use 2.4 for a week now and an very happy with it. There is only one bug I have in WhatsApp. Video call works. I can see other person's, but my front camera is not working in WhatsApp. With ​normal camera my front cam works. Is there a fix or solution for it?

I have done everything as mentioned and everything is working BUT there is still one problem. When someone is calling me I can not see who is calling. Also I can not answer cos there is no green phone icon displayed. Well I can answer but with home button only but as I mentioned I can not see who is calling me, a number or any of my contacts (I logged into gmail). Just music is playing when sb calls but thats it. Maybe I messed up some settings? But I have done full wipe format and there is still what it is :( Please help. Thank you.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] :
Do you use a theme ? If so disable it on the phone app
[Galaxy S III Android Development] papatzis:
You must have the same problem with me, you must have replaced the phone app with Google phone during installation

Start reading from post #476 to read my problem and a friend here had uploaded the stock dialer.

Check and tell me there are some screenshots check if you phone app have the same icon. I had fixed that replacing the apk

YOU MUST HAVE PHONE 3.0.0 INSTALLED IF NOT THIS IS YOUR PROBLEM.

Does anyone have problems with Whatsapp video calling too?

Video call works. I can see other person's, but my front camera is not working in WhatsApp. With ​normal camera my front cam works.

Is there a fix or solution for it?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
Whenever someone asks on the XDA forum for the official LineageOS i9300 about whatsapp video calling not working, as they frequently do, the answer given is that the HwComposer is broken and that the developer is working on the issue.

Whether that is or is not the case I know not. But I think that it will not be fixed on this ROM until it is fixed on the Official Lineage ROM for this device.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Jack123hello:
Well modern combat is just a game and it is reasonable for it to consume that much power. To be honest, I want OP3T so badly right now ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kajoe:
Thank you very much for reply. That is a pitty. I hope developers find a solution for it. But there is news. I just saw that official Lineage OS is released. I am going to try it now and will inform here if videocall works in new official release.

After testing the official Lineage OS I can confirm Videocall is still not working.

This morning I created a new TWRP backup. It was the first since updating TWRP to the latest version.

During the day I noticed that my S3 was a bit sluggish, so this evening I checked the storage.

TWRP had placed the backup in the default location, internal storage, rather than on my ext SD. As a result my internal storage was nearly full.

It was my error because I had not checked the storage location before creating the backup.

I wiped the backup and created a new backup on my ext SD.

With 5GB of free space on internal storage, the device is once again running smooth and fast.

Hi guys, could I just quickly ask you about your user experience of 2.4? I'm about to update from 2.0 and just want to know if anyone is having any issues (apart from the WhatsApp video calling) so I don't waste time setting the phone after a clean install, in case there is some problem.

Many thanks in advance

The crDroid download page shows that there have been 648 downloads of 2.4.

I think that provides you with the answer to your question.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Vshu:
Dear baltics,

For me on the first install of crdroid 2.4, everything including battery(1 whole day) was good?, also the rom was working fast and no problems with rootless OMS.

But when I reverted back to 2.3 & then updated to 2.4, battery drain was critical (hardly ran 4 hrs), except this everything works fine.

Yeah, crdroid build 2.4 is Awesome, but facing minor battery issue;)

I'm running crDroid v2.4 and it's a very stable and fast ROM, but I can't make that app running. I have also asked the same question in lineage 14 thread and a user told me that with that rom, the app works good. Therefore I think the problem could be the ROM.

If not too indiscreet, how many I9300 devices do you still own? I stopped flashing those nightlies for a while because of battery drain issue on most. I'm on Hyper ROM 6.0.1 (Boeffla-Kernel-7.9-samsung-i9300) and it's amazingly swift, stable and really nice daily driver. And what's more, works beautifully well with my usual sound mods. Maybe, we're expecting too much from 7.1.1
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
just one.

---------- Post added at 02:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:26 PM ----------

I used Temasek's Si9300 Marshmallow Rom for most of last year, switching to CM14 and then progressing to Lineage nightlies. I too wanted to stop flashing nightlies/weeklies. So I clean installed this ROM, and have clean installed the updates as they have been posted every three weeks or so.

This ROM is very similar to Temansek's ROM in terms of functionality BUT in terms of memory and battery life it is far, far better. Apps never freeze. The battery drain is very low. I could reduce it further, if I wished, but I am happy only recharging every 24 hours.

I use Boeffla kernel set to moderate, but whether it will work with the new Magisk Root, I know not!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mohand06:
Are you talking about CrDroid v2.4? Because it's what I'm now getting on Hyper ROM - I'm using this i9300 mainly as music device for it's exceptional sound card, with a second sim - A3 2016 as main phone.
