That did fix the issue, thanks again.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Android-Banjarmasin:
Oh sorry I mean the focus toggle is when you pressed the camera screen then it has a white circle, its always gone to center

For the open camera, sorry i always stay stock as possible, without replacing the stock one e.g: If i already has a camera, i don't want a 3rd party camera apps

Then for camera failed/crashed, its only a simple issue, just grab the "Slimxxx" files in system/vendor/firmware then paste it to /data/cfw, it should working fine without download any other apps lol

I have the battery drain problem too.I am not even using the device but cant stop the drain.I did everything I can do.Also while using mobile data ,google play services drains the battery which I cant fix it.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ash0103:
com.android.phone stopped working.

SIM card is fine. Phone has carrier signal too. Any ideas?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] dana.marivani:
Do this:

The walk, settings>Memory>Apps started on boot>Consuming applications

1-Run in background

2-Start at boot

Turn off

Something else affect battery - Body Sensors > Google play services Turn off

With these two things can be somewhat easily save battery consumption
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] itachi uchia:
You can use MicroG for LineageOS.

I am using it now and my S3 battery life is incredible :). (It holds for 2 days, with active usage)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ArdaCsknn:
I ignored everything I can ignore already.Something wrong with the rom.It is not happening on Samsung based roms.Only happening on Lineage OS and CyanogenMod.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] dana.marivani:
Yes that's right,But we do not know that we still have the finalization of this ROM, there are still some problems,friendly offer You will have to do the basic cleaning again from the beginning then reset factori,Be careful to analyze your battery,Good luck

Hello guys, I try to install it but after flashing rom device start and remain in start mode with an infinite lineage animation... I install lastest nightly version ( lineage-14.1-20180131-nightly-i9300-signed.zip ).

what can I do?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] itachi uchia:
Yes, you can install every APP with Yalpstore (YouTube too), you dont even need a Google account to install the apps.

Are ther any ability to increase amount of memory, that is available for user? Now we have only 827Mb, but I need ~850MB for Android Auto.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] has78:
It's not possible coz there is reserved space for critical system apps.

By the way if you can get more than 500 MB free Ram usage you will be lucky ?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] lyolic:
I'm lucky :) I already have 827 MB RAM and I want to increase this number

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] has78:
Are you sure that you have free Ram usage 872!!!

Don't say jokes ?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] lyolic:
I'm not talking about free RAM. I have shown you on screenshot what kind of RAM I'm talking about.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] LuciferIII:
Sorry, but we can't follow your thoughts.

Could you explain your request with a little more detail?

You can't increase your Physical RAM unless you upgrade the phones Hardware.

Another option is to use Swap, which is slow.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] lyolic:
I'm not talking about increase os Physical RAM.

Our phone has 1024MB of RAM. If you will go to Settings->About menu you will find, that you have only 828MB of RAM. Other 196MB is used for smth else. So I'm asking about any ROM or (may be) kernel, that have more than 828MB of RAM available.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] acroreiser:
Huh
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] LuciferIII:
Read this:

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/general/actual-ram-available-t1656930/page1

In short: You can increase the amount of Ram, but don't expect miracles.

I don't know the current amount of available RAM on stock, but according to this thread it's 779mb.

On this ROM we have 828mb available, this probably means that it was increased as the kernel was modified and the Android version is newer.

I heard that every new Android version optimizes the RAM usage.

So my conclusion, either some someone makes a custom kernel with Memory optimizations for Lineage for the s3 specifically(if possible) or wait for an Oreo build.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] lyolic:
So it was my question: what ROm modificatio or custom kernel can provide more than 828MB of RAm :)

Is is last version of LOS?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] raghavsharmaxda:
so i have been using this rom on m440s variant (i know sounds strange but actually all roms work perfectly on that device from i9300 ). except this specific one has weird screen stutters and darkening happening all the time. there feels some weird kind of lag and most importantly even when settings app is scrolled through, i notice screen tearing (similar to as if VSync is off in games, hope im making sense.) so is it something common for you guys too on i9300 latest nightly (31/1) or is it just me because of a different device? (also if its just me and there exists a way to solve it that you can advise that would be great, else i will simply be switching rom). Thank you for reading :)

He is not asking about LOS 15.He is asking for the HWC.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Flegmon:
With Los15 comes the fixed HWC
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ArdaCsknn:
Simon didn't say anything about HWC.We can only hope.I just want a new relase of the Experimental build.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Android-Banjarmasin:
Umm, the HWC already fixed in official build
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ArdaCsknn:
Can you give me the link or some proof about it?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] LuciferIII:
Hold up :confused:
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] qb74:
You'd feel an insane difference in overall smoothness, multitasking and battery life if this was the case.

Besides, looking at Simon's github, he seems to be adding commits that are related to our device and the Note 2, not entirely sure in what way they're related.

Hopefully we'll get a new experimental build up and running. :D
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ArdaCsknn:
When Simon first published the experimental build it was awesome.I used it until 3-4 days ago because had too much drain whille phone sleeping(In every CM and LOS had that issue and wont be able to fix the drain).But the performance was incredible.I don't know how to use that phone without experimental build.I waited for new build but never came.It's sad he is not giving any information about experimetal build.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] alexrose1uk:
Hi Guys,

Sorry for a very quick post, but I've dug this ROM up as the father-in-law is starting to run into some issues with unavailable apps/unavailable updates/security issues etc due to still running stock Android 4.3 on his handset (a lot of apps seem to want Android 5+ these days). He's essentially just looking to use the phone normally, but with the phone updated to a newer version of android than the now rather dated stock OS. Are there any specific idiosyncracies I should be aware of; or any reason not to use this as a daily runner?

Also, how is speed running Android 7 compared to the old stock roms, and Samsung apps? I've had a quick skim over some of the thread, but not found the answers to this in one easy place as yet :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ArdaCsknn:
It's running like a modern phone and with much much better multi-tasking.But app openings not fast like the modern phones.I want to say I just can't use Stock ROM's after 7.1.2.It feels so slow and laggy.But it comes with disadvantages.Battery consumption not good as stock and you need to make many adhustments after first installation.While idling battery drains really fast if you connected to Wi-Fi.I didn't use official latest version of the LOS but used Simon's experimental build and official version doesn't have working HWC so Audio and Playback issues probably will happen.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Ashraf Iraqian:
No Sound and playback issues in my side

about HWC i have only 2 problems

The first: some social apps not connecting to the camera for video call (black screen).

The second: when i try to produce any video from any video editing apps it is end with changing the colors of the original video colors ex. red to green.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Android-Banjarmasin:
Yeah but i didn't have a bug in the video call, youtube play in browser, playing video in video player. That's all works fine here, in official latest build
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ArdaCsknn:
It is not happening as often as on Nougat.It was a big problem while using 5.0 and 6.0.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Android-Banjarmasin:
I don't know what are you talking about lol, i thought you was talking about the nougat
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mrpascal:
Can Anyone please tell me any critical bugs in wifi or network or calling and stability of this rom and can I use it as my daily driver ?? Please help me I am fed up with my 4.4.4 rom :(

Thanks :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ArdaCsknn:
I was already.But if you read all the things that I wrote, you can easily understand.I did only use experimental version of nougat because Simon said it fixed the HWC(Half fixed btw.).
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Robert-R:
Since a few month, I'm using it as my daily driver, and I'm very happy with it. Wifi, cellular data, calling work excellently, and I didn't encounter spontaneous reboots. It runs smooth and battery-life is oké.

The Lineage-camera may crash once and a while; install "Camera Restarter"-app from the Playstore for a quick restart possibility. You can also install Cameringo-camera from the Playstore; this one will never crash. However you will still need the Camera Restarter when the camera crashes during a videocall (e.g. via Whatsapp).

"Cameringo"-camera-app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.perracolabs.cpd

"Camera Restarter"-app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.exlyo.camerarestarter

With this Nougat you have much more adjustment-possibilities in comparison with Samsung stock-ROM; and last but not least, you get the latest android security-updates via an easy update-procedure.

Thanks for help guys, and final step, what is su removal (arm), su? that extras? for what they serve?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Kippy51:
If you wanna have root, you either flash SuperSU or Magisk. Su removal is to remove SuperSU if you wanna change to Magisk.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] lollo.21:
Does Magisk work properly? I'm thinking of abandoning SuperSu and moving to Magisk!

about SafetyNet?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Kippy51:
It seems that with Magisk you have a better change of passing SafetyNet, but as I don't need that I'm still using SuperSU. And some users say that Magisk is less stable and loses root now and then .... So you decide what you want/need!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] curiousrom:
LineageOS su, ROOT, Magisk & SuperSU

That is incorrect. The LineageOS su add-on (addonsu-14.1-arm-signed.zip here for S3 i9300) & ROOT works fine for me since 3 months on S3 i9300 so it's not only "either flash SuperSU or Magisk" as explained clearly in post #1 of this thread:

"...Su removal is to remove SuperSU..." - The addonsu-remove-14.1-arm-signed.zip found in the same LineageOS Downloads > Extras page is to remove said addonsu-14.1-arm-signed.zip if installed previously and NOT to be used to remove SuperSU. One can use the SuperSU app or installer to remove it and uninstall that app afterwards which I did recently on a S5 Mini G800H w/ stock Samsung ROM rooted w/ SuperSU.

More info about installing the LineageOS su addon in post #1 and the Install LineageOS on i9300 wiki.

To enable ROOT after flashing the LineageOS su addon (What is Android ROOT?):

1- Settings > About phone > tap 7 times on Build number until a pop up saying "Developer options enabled" appears.

2- Go back to > Settings > Developer options > Root access > enable Apps and ADB.

While there I recommend > Settings > Developer options > Enable USB debugging > Toggle On as it does not use any resources & can be useful down the road.

Magisk currently does not work well with stock LineageOS 14.1 for S3 i9300 as reported several times in this thread. Some S3 LOS users reported success with [MENTION=7907521]A$teroid[/MENTION] 's custom [KERNEL][7.X][i9300] Koffee + Magisk. Discussion about that custom kernel should be done in that thread obviously because it is not part of the Official LOS 14.1 for i9300.

"...about SafetyNet?" - Stock LineageOS 14.1 for S3 i9300 does not pass SafetyNet check. If that is important for you use Magisk + that kernel or SuperSU + suhide may work too but I have not used any of those on S3 running LineageOS 14.1 so can't comment about it.

***
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] LuciferIII:
Magisk has his pros and cons.

But for the s3 it more on the bad site as it makes the mobile data cause an annoying bug. While the phone is sleeping, sometimes it won't startup and it may end up rebooting unexpectedly.

Also SafetyNet workaround by Magisk won't work either unless you flash a specific kernel, which i don't remember name of, but you can find it a few pages back in this thread
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] curiousrom:
Name of that Koffee kernel & link to it is in the post just above yours. ;)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] lollo.21:
perfect, I have clearer ideas, now I try it too Magisk and see how it behaves, with regard to SafetyNet little I care :) thanks to all of you

Hello i would like to ask you about this rom

which version you suggest me as daily driver

im a university poor civil engineer student

what i need to be stable in daily bases are

Phone calls

sms messages ( yeah im from 90s )

fb lite messenger

viber

skype

camera

chrome ( or opera mini no worries )

discord

google drive

word

excel

adobe pdf reader

gmail

here wego maps

solid explorer + ftp server

Plus i would like to ask if in this rom the fallowing are running

gmail go

youtube go

google maps go

twitter go

just to give an idea of what i mean stable

im running on 12.1-20161015-RPDROKY 5.1.1 with stock kernel

and i clean install the rom every 6 months instead to run smooth as possible !

i want to keep my device one more year at least and then as a second device.

thank you for your time friends !!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] curiousrom:
Daily Driver? - Google Go Apps

What he said. :good:

I have been using S3 LOS 14.1 stock (currently updated to 2018-02-14) + Opengapps Nano + LineageOS su addon since 3 months as my daily driver w/o any problems and agree with [MENTION=7746932]Robert-R[/MENTION] .

[MENTION=6797921]kokos94[/MENTION] : "Plus i would like to ask if in this rom the fallowing are running gmail go, youtube go, google maps go & twitter go" - No Go at all in the stock LOS by default. No Google apps are included in LineageOS to keep it clean. That's why you need to flash Open Gapps or use Yalp Store or microG or APKMirror for example to get some.

I tried Files Go & was not impressed because it's using resources and I prefer using a ROOT enabled file explorer & the stock LOS File explorer works fine for quick access to regular user's files.

Searched Play Store with: go google llc & found Google Maps Go did not try it as well as Gmail Go.

No YouTube Go nor Twitter Go in the Store @ the present.

So I guess you could flash LineageOS for S3 i9300 then Open Gapps Pico variant(Open Gapps Package Comparison) one after the other in that order (and optional LineageOS arm su addon) before rebooting in System as per the LOS install wiki and manually install those Go versions via Play later.

*****

[MENTION=8854590]NewbieToo[/MENTION] : did you notice in the https://download.lineageos.org/i9300/changes/ (2018-02-07) there are two recent ones concerning your US T-Mobile APN's? cm: Consolidate T-Mobile US APNs and cm: Allow IPv6 on roaming for T-Mobile US APNs

What's the problem here?

The video is very good and the links just require you to wait 5 seconds and click a button.

It helps supporting the youtuber who made the video.

Unless you are pretty new to the internet, you shouldn't mind those kinds of stuff.

Also, saying "if he exists" is kind of disrespectful towards any religion.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] curiousrom:
Obviously you did not check the links as some are broken or open a further popup SPAM new window which requires extra clicking to close them (Are you sure you want to leave this page?) or link to old files like for TWRP: https://dl.twrp.me/i9300/twrp-3.1.0-0-i9300.img.tar.html The ones in the description to LineageOS & OpenGapps are working indeed.

Also, saying "if he exists" is kind of disrespectful... - Nah, that's just agnostic, it's legit IMO. ;)

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] qb74:
'Transfering HWC codes' isn't possible. Requires a lot more work than just straight up copy-pasting stuff.

The only ROMs that have half or fully working HWC are: Nameless (6.0.1 - media playback bug happens here as well), LOS11 (iirc doesnt happen at all) & LOS14.1 experimental (cant test, no boot for me). So there are your options.
