Hi, am I the only one who noticed an improvenent in terms of OTA-update speed with the latest weekly from 06.09.2017? Booting after flashing took less than half the regular time(approx. 3-4 minutes). Previously it used to be ~10 minutes. No issues so far, I am just curious. :)

Firstly, this is the wrong thread to post that. It is for I9300 (international) and this is for LOS 14.1 not bootloaders.

But it is posted so here is what I got: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...51bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5tbW1lZmYuZXoudW5sb2NrIl0

Try the app and if it's not working then here is another post: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=30274025&postcount=317

Hello everybody!

Something weird is happening with my S3! The phone boots up just fine. But all I can see is the notification LED and the backlight buttons.

The screen is completely black.

Yes, the device does work, because it has WiFi connected and I can hear the notifications coming. The phone is charging too. Just nothing on the screen.

Anybody can help me with this? What might be wrong?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Ashley david:
Try unscrewing the device and clean the cable to the display and see if it works.you can see videos on YouTube:)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] eriol1:
Happened to me once. One minute I'm using the phone and everything is fine, then a few minutes later I take it out of my pocket and it's as you described. No screen, everything else fine. Even managed to take a few pictures by pressing the screen, so I know touch still worked as well. (couldn't see the pictures at the time but when connected to a pc I saw them on SD card).

What I tried:

Removed the battery, waited for over a day before putting it back.

Opened the device, completely disconnected everything I could, cleaned it all.

Nothing helped.

I didn't try clean flash with Odin because a few weeks later someone I know who also had an s3 told me he was replacing it because his motherboard died.

I put my mobo in his phone and everything works.

Conclusion: my display died somehow.

I hope that's not the case for you but I thought I'll post so you know it's possible.

My guess is that everyone is focusing on Lineage15 now. Also,sometimes, but rarely happens that there are no changes. You probably don't need to worry :good:

---------- Post added at 11:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:45 AM ----------

I don't know how this works out, but i would prefer that Simon would skip the work on Hwcomposer on Lineage14.1 and work straight on Lineage15's HWc.

Lineage14.1 is pretty stable, so maybe noone will mind it

Maybe this would save some time and get it out sooner on Lineage15.

Or maybe i am getting this completely wrong and it doesn't make any difference :silly:

What's your thoughts?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Mirajoo7:
I'm also thinking about LOS15 in our s3 Beauty. :o

I'd like a stable ROM (no camera crashes in apps & stable HWC so no audio/video not playing bug) more than the Oreo update. But hey, it's not like our opinion matters anyway.

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] multiwirth:
Not on such an old device.

Don't know where you have read this but this is for newer devices with faster cpu and mmc.

I'm just wondering if Android 8 will even run well since we have only 1GB Ram.

Android 6 is able to run with 1GB and Zram.

Android 7 has it's problems.

On my HTC One M8, it uses around 1,4GB all the time.

Even 2GB seems to be not enough and get close to its limits.

Multitasking is barely working.

And however, i'm more interested in a better optimized rom with HWC working and everything else.

Maybe we could also add new governor's to the kernel since pegasusq is old and slow.

For example "zzmoove" in the boeffla kernel has a smooth and fast hotplug which increases the clock at the right moment and shuts down 3 cores if they're not needed > better performance and battery lifetime.

The pegasusq governor keeps always 2 cores online and does not turn on even if your device would need it.

It turns on the extra 2 cores while booting, and I believe while updating apps and playing games.

This works fine with Android 4.x but everything after this needs more power in a short moment to be smooth.

Which profile do you suggest ?

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] qb74:
Fun fact is that there's not a single 6.0 ROM that's completely stable (working HWC & Camera/Video call playback). I'm baffled by the fact that nobody ever bothered building a 6.0 ROM with the HWC&Cam fixes applied and keeping it up to date.

The only 'stable' (I still think there are some small quirks here and there but not of big significance) ROMs for our device are 4.4 ROMs (like rpdroky's LOS11 etc.)

I did find LOS Nougat to be quite fluid and stable during the time I was using it, except for the annoying media playback bug that kept on happening.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Androidead:
Is in-call volume still broken in 2017-09-06? Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] minealex2244:
Did you heard about Android O? No matter what phone is running it, but our phone will get these improvements. Did you worked on Android O's kernel? If yes then you maybe saw some improvements in performance and multitasking. Also Google fixed the battery drain issue for all devices not just for some devices. They did improvements in the entire Android. CPU doesn't matter when it comes about app behavior. Google Play Services were the biggest culprit so it doesn't matter about your CPU: the issue is fixed! Same for boot up speed thanks to the updated Android Binder.

Where did you got your information? Did you checked the code?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] tonga01:
Unfortunately, it is. :(
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Hamx5:
I agree with you. Another android update with the same old damned bugs i believe it's useless.

The fact is that there is excitement in the air due to android Oreo incoming. However, when it will be relased for our s3, after the initial happines, people will start again to be bother by the bugs that we use to deal with.

I'm looking for stability, now i'm on a kitkat based rom which is more stable; even after 2 month of use. It has bugs and it's far from being stable like a stock rom, but it's better that this rom.

I want to underline that I respect and also thank the developers of this rom who give us their work for free. Nevertheless facts are facts, this rom is too far from being a good rom.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Robert-R:
I totally agree!

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] TramSK:
Hi,

I found a few bugs in Lineage OS 14.1 and I need to get them fixed. I am very sorry for my noob post and bad english.

1. Loud volume when calling - minimal call volume is SO loud.

2. When installing update of system, it deletes busybox, flashed zips (I must flash them again) and patches (I don't know if this is a bug or a normal thing, but I think that CM 13 was not doing this)

Thanks for all help and again, sorry for my bad EN and 'noob post'
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] LuciferIII:
1. I think it's a known issue

2. If the zips modify the system, an update will revert the changes. This is completely normal.

This applies to busybox too, but you can use Magisk root + BusyBox module it provides.

You can also use the Addons folder to your advantage, you can search it up on Google. Magisk also uses that addon folder to survive flashes alongside it's modules.

For the <BEEP> part, if you are modifying any system apps, it should also reset that, but i don't know exactly. BUT talking about any kinds of patching tools (or any other pirating methods) is strictly forbidden on XDA, so try to avoid that. Using this kinds of applications is up to you ;)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] TramSK:
[MENTION=7305969]LuciferIII[/MENTION]

1. OK, now I know that 1st one is already reported.

2. Oh, thanks, I thinked that it will be normal because...because :). I will try to properly install Magisk and busybox module. And that with LP: yes I know that it is forbidden here, so I don't promoted it any way. I just said that it removes patches. Nothing more.

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ttayyab:
Hi everyone. I wanted to thank the developers for this awesome ROM. I mean, I never imagined the i9300 would be running Nougat!

Performance is great except for some lags which are expected from outdated hardware. I do have one issue which involves the media stop working i.e. instagram, youtube videos, ringtones don't play anymore and the only way to fix them is a reboot. Does anyone have a similar issue?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] qb74:
It's a issue that won't be fixed anytime soon probably. It's the HWC's fault, will be fixed once somebody ports our device over to Oreo and maybe it'll get fixed a few months afterwards.

You're essentially stuck with rebooting everytime to fix this, or install a MM ROM (Nameless is the only one with stable HWC but broken vid. call because the devs are inactive and don't wanna build a new nightly with the fix while the files are there to flash, but you gotta disable HW overlays for it to work.) or install a KK ROM.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ttayyab:
Thank you for your reply. It's not a very serious issue per se but definitely annoying! I could get back to KitKat but that OS has gotten very slow especially due to all the animations of the new apps. This ROM is fantastic though with little to no issues.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] minealex2244:
I have some bad news: Not even one commit for our device (specifically) for LOS 15 branch. Not even for S2 :( That means that LOS 14.1 was the last official build. Simon worked a lot for oppo but nothing for our device. We will see after one more month. Don't trust unofficial compatibility lists for LOS15. It is a big update.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Option58:
Guys, I just wanted to tell you some stuff cause I see all this conversation and I feel like you deserve it.

The thing with HWC is that Samsung has never released the source code.

Previously (on lollipop, kitkat) we just took the finished 'hwcomposer.smdk4412.so' from Samsung's TouchWiz firmware and it worked. Now, on Nougat, that file is too old.

Now we (not me - forkbomb, javifo) have some HWC open source code...but that doesn't work 100% as it should. It creates some issues with video, weird lines, and black screen in some cases (Snap camera) etc. So that's why it hasn't been merged yet. It's just not ready, at least yet.

Don't expect hwc to magically solve all your video issues, it won't. All you get is that your device feels really smoother. Else you can use your device as is.

Just because you don't see commits doesn't mean the work isn't started. It probably is.

Forkbomb has been doing something...but here's the thing - How to boot Oreo on an old linux 3.0 kernel? That appears to be too old. So kernel upstream to 3.4 (which is quite a bit of work) or...? Hence the delay.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] qb74:
As long as it solves the media playback bug, i consider it 'fixed' and therefor 100% stable :)

Is there any way to get a petition going on for Samsung to release the source code? Or just pull the source code out somehow?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Option58:
It doesn't solve that bug. I am running a test build on my device. (youtube still sometimes stop). If that's the bug? (Also don't ask for a build, I don't own an S3, but similar device)

No Samsung won't release it. It's been 5 years. We actually have something...but as I said. Needs further work to be official. If I can describe it, hwc will create you even more video bugs, but your device feels smoother.

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/f...14.1-rebase/exynos4/hal/libhwc/hwcomposer.cpp
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] qb74:
yeah, the one where playback randomly stops, as explained on page 319 by [MENTION=8556683]ttayyab[/MENTION] (cant play any video/audio at all till reboot)

rip, i guess the wait continues D:
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] aser_elhbayeb:
Any hope the fix will be here on Nougat anytime soon? Or the work will be migrated to Oreo (if any)?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] paulcarroty:
You can try to use another apps. Gapps and Youtube now are very slow, Google just motivate you to buy new device. I use apkpure/aptoide as market and NewPipe instead youtube app and never meet your problems. 1080p x264 plays perfectly without any interrupts, the same with 720p x265.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ttayyab:
Hmm...thanks for your reply but I think it is more of a system-wide issue related to playing media. Prior to Lollipop, I could just terminate the mediaserver process and the issue would be fixed; this is not the case with Nougat. Usually the issue is triggered by browsing Instagram/Twitter with all media just coming to a standstill but the phone still running. I could try that NewPipe method. Are you saying you never installed Gapps in the first place?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] paulcarroty:
No, because they make your device slower and can be easy replaced to better market/youtube/email/twitter/G+ clients, which can be stopped/deleted when you want to do it.

Hello,

I'm using a clean install (after full wipe) of the latest LineageOS's nightly for i9300 (14.1-20170913-NIGHTLY-i9300).

I can't get how JIRA works (or the BUGBASH is closed) so I report bug here. Feel free to point me where to POST it in a better place.

Since I've installed it, all seems to work well... except two fact.

The first one : each morning, when I wake up my phone, it ask me for the PIN code... I can't understand why.

And this morning something strangest happened : when my alarm ringed, that wasn't the ring tone I choose previously... OK, it can happen.

But, getting back to the launcher, hugh : all my shortcuts and customisation disappeared ! It seems to be back in default (look like the launcher when I've launched LineageOS for the first time).

Notice that my user data (photos, message, ...) still be OK.

How are those things possible ? Is it "normal" ?

Thanks for your help !
