[Q] feature missing after installing CM9 - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I bought the device 2 days ago.
I installed Cm9 the stable ver. And i noticed that some S III features are missing.
For example the feature you can switch to the desktop while watching a video.
Is it possible to roll back to the rom i got the phone with?
Thanks

Yes if you saved your original firmware .
If not use CHECKFUS .

Sorry for being noob what is CHECKFUS
But regardless of rolling back why can't i find the feature i mentioned?
Thanks.

All the samsung features like popup play, smart stay, motion controls, etc. are all heavily integrated into the TouchWiz framework. Only Samsung based roms can have those feature. CM9 is an AOSP based.

Thank you daka
I didn't save the firmware.
What is CHECKFUS and how can I use to roll back?
Thanks

CheckFus is an apps for searching/checking and downloading firmware.
To roll back, download the firmware for your phone and flash it with odin. Remember to backup.

Are you running a custom Rom or stock?
Edit, also have you downloaded any apps or games recently? If so did it start after downloading a certain app?

Swype keyboard help...

Hey guys, I got an international version galaxy s3 i9300 and for some strange reason swype feature on the stock keyboard isn't working.. any help?
The option to turn on continuous input is greyed out.. see in the picture
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Can you find Swype app on your All Apps list? If it's not there, that's probably why you can't use it.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
No I cannot find it.. but its not in play store.. how can I find it?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
That means your firmware doesn't have it. Need to use a firmware that does. OTA update to 4.1.2 or flash an official firmware from sammobile using odin, or a custom rom.

[Q] Problems Playing HD Video on AOSP or CM 10.1 based ROM

Hi, I'm currently changing ROMs and now I'm trying AOSP based ROM like Slimbean or Beanstalk. Those ROMs are great but I encountered a problem that I can't play HD videos on them. HD videos with big size usually lags especially when I fast forwarded or rewind it, but on Sammy ROM I can play HD videos without any issues. Is this a common problem or there's a solution for this issue? Any help will be much appreciated, thanks before
Shameless self bump
R: [Q] Problems Playing HD Video on AOSP or CM 10.1 based ROM
What player u using? I suggest using mxplayer, it's DA BEST, PERIOD. U can use it to switch from hardwware to software decoding, and viceversa. First try it, then see if problem persists and report here with as many details as u can.

Kay.....weird....
Try 2 things for me:
1)make sure in mxplayer you switch from hw to sw decoding and viceversa while watching a video (theres a button)
2)go to settings, dev options and enable gpu drawing for screen instead of cpu. (There are 2 options about gpu enabling, enable both of them it should speed up ur cell first of all)

Thanks for replying mate. What ROM were you using? So there wasn't any problem at all? No lags when fast forwarding or rewinding?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
No lag. i was on cyanogen...may i suggest you do not use aosp roms as they are not currently stable enough for s3 and not best choice at all. samsung based roms are much better, i suggest using Foxhound, but if you do remember the latest version (2.4) has a bug in one of the tweaks: when you install it it asks a bunch of stuff, a new tweak that has been added is "crossbreeder", do not install it it wont work, dunno why cuz foxhound is very stable itself, theyll fix it next version for sure anyways....

[Q] AOSP ROMs with Samsung Apps & Camera

Hi, did anybody try flashing on the latest CM 4.3 nightlies both the Samsung Apps and ALSO the Samsung Camera?
The main thing I'm interested in is the samsung camera app, none of the camera apps on the market were up to that!
You can't get samsung apps or camera on AOSP. They need samsung framework to function.

Actually, if I remember it correctly, there are some port in theme section, find out yourself
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
They can work on AOSP. It takes a hell of a lot of work. But it can be done.
