Hi forkbomb444, Sorry I put an empty quote box. I wasn't sure how to tag you (not very forum savvy). Anyway, could you please implement a way to turn off fast dormancy into the ROM? I don't know if that is something you can do but I figured I would ask. I have wakelocks from secril_fd-interface and multipdp, and I read that these are fast dormancy related. I searched around some more and the methods for disabling fast dormancy don't work on this ROM. Some have said that I need to add a line to the build.prop. In fact, there were at least 3 different lines suggested and I tried all three but none of them seem to have worked to turn fast dormancy off. Other methods that I found are not working either. This is driving me nuts, because fast dormancy is keeping my phone awake for about 30% of the time that I am away from wifi. This means that my screen on time is only two hours at best. My wife's first gen Moto G also has lineage OS 14.1 and her phone gets 4hrs screen on time and no kernel wakelocks, and that's with a lower capacity battery. Is this something you would be able to look into?

One other thing, I was testing whether the lines entered into build.prop were working so I left wifi off. But Better Battery Stats says that Wifi is running 100% of the time. I don't know if it is actually draining battery but I thought it was strange and thought may be you would like to know.

Anyway, if you could please look into the fast dormancy issue it would be much appreciated. The ROM is otherwise awesome, and if I could just turn fast dormancy off and get 4 hrs screen on time it would be perfect.

Thanks in advance.

I was had battery drain problem with Wi-Fi before, but I fixed this problem. Maybe this method can be useful for you.

Go to Settings > Wi_Fi > Tap settings icon on top right > Change "Keep Wi_Fi on during sleep" to 'Never'.

Thank you so much. I used terminal emulator instead of adb. It should work the same, right? All the commands seem to anyway. I will see if this works. But can I ask how you know this?

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] andrescm:
Happens to me too with and added bonus: sometimes when I plug the charger the phone won't start charging. Unplugging and plugging again one or two times resolves the issue. So I thought it was a problem with my cell phone's USB port or the USB cable. However I've done a test 3 times now and always with the same result:

1. Plug the charger (if the phone starts charging right away, test can't be done. Try later).

2. Wait for several minutes, the phone won't start charging. Led is off, etc.

3. Without moving the phone reboot into recovery (I have TWRP).

4. TWRP shows *I am* charging.

5. Reboot to system again, the phone charges and the led stays on.

Alternatively, just rebooting the phone without going to recovery also sets the phone on charging mode.

No one is treating you like one, baltics offered a detailed help. No need for a harsh response.

Sadly or not, I think those are the rules of the game; if you want to use Google services, and for free, you have to give something in return or otherwise use something else. I'm not saying I don't agree with protecting one's privacy, but that's how things are at the moment.

It is not a ROM issue.

I've been building lineage 14.1 for my own use with this docker image.

If anyone wants it, it's here.

I've added some tweaks to it by pulling commits from other repos.

The feature include: Boeffla sound engine and charging control [pulled from ChronoMonochrome's lineage 15.1 repo], lower minimum brightness [Oebbler], forced disable Bluetooth absolute volume and added OMS support [from LineageSubstratum].

If you want to change the boeffla settings just use the init.d script mentioned here. SmartPack-Kernel Manager also works.

Aptx bluetooth codec and stock Samsung boot animation is available as magisk modules in the dropbox too.

The latest build has the 5 April 2020 security patch. If anything break, I won't know how to fix it, but it's working fine on my device now. I'll build whenever there's a new security patch.

I don't have the device anymore so can't check , but other users here have confirmed that the rom works ok, so i guess gsp/wifi are working, you can check if your imei is ok (it seems like you have problems with efs partition) , there are some nice tutorials here from curiousrom about almost any problem you could have , just search the thread

Hello,

i cant seem to find google play store?

Using TWRP 3.0.2-0

lineage 14.1, gapps "arm,7.1,nano/pico/micro"
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] kurtn:
Wipe system and data. Then flash lineageOS and GApps in one twrp session.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] KAR0TTENP0WER:
Yes, does work now.

2 more things:

Is it possible to play Pokemon Go this way? Since PoGo only supports Android 5+, which i only get by using a Custom Rom on Samsung S3.

Because ive tried that and i cant find it in the Play Store.

When i google for it, it says "Device not supported", even tho I am on Android 7.1?

I wanna uninstall Googe play service updates, but i dont see the 3 dots in the top right corner for doing it. I disabled all the apps using admin power.

Would it help to root my phone?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] kurtn:
Pokémon go is not shown because your phone probably fails safetynet checks. Maybe magisk can do something for you.

You just installed play services with GApps. Live with it or remove it with clean flashing. You can get apps from other sources.

I am not a developer , I'm just doing this as a hobby on my free time and i hope I'm being usefull to someone out there to keep this device secure to use in 2020.

I try to unlock my Bootloader, all the tutorials say using "adb and fastboot"

But ive read samsung doesnt have "fastboot", it uses "download/odin mode".

Ive managed to install adb using this tutorial https://wiki.lineageos.org/adb_fastboot_guide.html

By "setting up fastboot" it doesnt work to say "fastboot devices", its stuck at "wait for any device".

When i go into download mode by pressing VOL DOWN + POW + HOME, there is information at the top left corner "custom rom, custom kernel etc..."

When i go into download mode by "adb reboot bootloader/download" there is NO information at the top left corner and is stuck, also i cant find it anymore using ADB Devices.

How can i unlock my bootloader on Samsung S3 ? Or is it already unlocked maybe?

WTF? [MENTION=6294510]KAR0TTENP0WER[/MENTION] ? Yesterday you tell us twrp is installed -- today you don't know the difference between fastboot and Odin?

very helpful answer

but it seems like it yea? wheres the problem

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Revvoc:
Hi there,

I have tried the last unofficial build from here and found two bugs beside the known ones.

First of all: Thank you really much for supporting this legacy S3 still in 2020. :good: :o

Is anybody here, who can fix bugs or knows where to post them?

Cause I got the build from here, I give it a try to report the found issues here. Maybe as a warning?

My setup uses TWRP 3.2.3, LOS 14.1 unofficial from 20200429 (link from here) and a full wipe before installation.

#1 higher battery drain after first call

After a call, two processes start consuming constant cpu load. "com.android.dialer" about 4% and "/system/bin/surfaceflinger" about 3%.

Still in standby.

Between boot and first call, those processes have 0% cpu load. This load drains my battery in less then 24h, when not calling it lasts about 4-5 days.

I have tried Flight Mode and disable display rotation without success.

Any ideas?

#2 Disable WiFi standby does not wake up proper

When this feature is activated, wifi does not work any more after wake up. The last connected AP is shown instead of all available. It does not connect.

Workaround 1: After every wakeup disable and reenable wifi, less comfort

Workarount 2: disable this feature. leads to higher battery drain. Disable wifi manually to safe battery, less comfort.

I know, this feature was working flawlessly in CM11 I used for many years.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] barbe31:
Same here for number 2. Not fundamental but annoying :(
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Mad-Marty:
Anyone notices extreme slowdowns as well? Seem to happen since the last 3 versions.

Mostly they happen when either turning on wifi or when using the camera.

It's not a real freeze/lockup ... if you are very very patient you might be able to get to the launch screen ...

really annoying ... mostly it's battery pull time for me

S3 Frozen or in Bootloop - Hard Reset

To me that's like being in a car @ 50 km/h and turning off the engine without a clutch.

Not too good & some users reported file corruptions & other problems in this thread after doing that a couple of times.

If caught in a bootloop or the S3 is frozen it's better to press the Power button for about 8-10 seconds until the screen turns black & release it immediately to turn off the S3 & prevent the phone from rebooting.

If you want to hard reset & reboot then release the Power button when the bootloader's Samsung GT-I9300 splash screen appears.

Any advice on improving the battery life using this rom? I followed most of this guide and disabled a bunch of stuff.

I remember the battery being an issue on custom roms since forever with this phone, but it seemed at least decent when i was using SlimKAT a few years back, but that one is pretty outdated now.

It's not like any app in particular is doing this, it's just the screen/system eating the battery at a excesive rate.

Should i flash a different kernel or use the kernel auditor app to enable some cpu/memory governing to tweak performance/battery usage a bit?

What settings to use?

I found a decent guide in the LOS 16 thread but with this rom i doesn't have zzmoove avalible in the ernel auditor so i'm looking to do something similar.

What do you mean? You turn off Wifi and Mobile Data, and then reboot and Wifi and Mobile Data are turned on again? Is this what you mean?

Check again, now it is off (enabled)! for all system apps.
