Cyanogen nightly bug! - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've been having this issue for a while (I think I noticed it from the 20140416 nightly, not sure though). I experience random crashes here and there (everything will freeze and then the UI will "reset" itself), but they mainly happen when I try to pull down the notifications bar after unlocking my phone. It's pathetic that this happens, as I'm sure it's not a big deal to fix!!!
If this is in the wrong thread than please move to the correct section. As I'm a new user here, I can't post in the development section, unfortunately.

The first thing you should do is whipe your phone. Have you done this?

Probably why it's a nightly...

You declared that its easy to fix. So it seems that you have the knowledge to fix it, otherwise you wouldnt know that.
Anyways, dont expect a serious answer if you do several mistakes. First, posts like yours dont belong into the general section. They either belong into the respective rom thread or maybe Q&A. And even if you post there, none of the CM devs will ever read it. They avoid xda.
Then you also brag about a bug in a nightly. Guess what, nightlies are not supported. They are automatically generated builds. A bug report will be ignored (even if you use cm's bug tracker called jira). I can add more mistakes you did if you want.

Don't post in dev sections if you need help with something, especially if no-one can understand what your question is or how the can help. Ask in Q&A, you're far more likely to get help there.
If you mean that "3g" does not really work on your device and nothing happens when you try loading a website, i can tell you it IS actually that slow. but JieeHD is right, please post questions in Q&A...
which leads me to one question: how the hell is he able to do his first (!!) post in dev section?! when i joined, there still was some 10-posts-rule...

Yeah its a good rule, keeps the threads cleaner IMO. I know there is possibly users out there that have some useful info to share but its rare. I think we need to ask a mod what's going on, I'll ask pulser when I get the chance.
Sent from my Hero using XDA Premium App
yeah definately does ;D but i can remember when i first rooted and installed elelinux (it was 0.2 back then ) i noticed some issues but was unable to report them.. and it took until 0.5 when someone noticed and ele fixed.. i think in special situations there should be possibilities to send some pm to a mod , would help to find bugs earlier... especially new users do alot play around and maybe find something we would never have tried?
thank you for asking, keep me up to date would be interested, maybe this is another strange xda-premium thing? were you able to instantly post in dev section with your xda pro app?

Hey, I'm from the Legend forums, just browsing through, when I noticed this thread.
1) DUDE WTF
2) Yeah, in our forum, there was one instance of a guy with 1 post posting in our NewSense thread. I was confuzzled.
3) I think the OP is wonder if the 3G data usage is somehow connected to the H icon that appears when data is being used. Maybe, maybe not.
Either way, NOOB.

Maybe that's why they opened up that Moderator Application announcement I saw a week back.

Although I didn't look hard, I'm not sure where it went. I know it caught my attention the first time because it was a general announcement.
But then after googling the terms in the custom search, there was a moderator opening going on about a year ago today. So maybe that got dug up and screwed over? Anyway, I wasn't interested so I barely looked at the date. Will keep my eyes open though!
FOUND IT RIGHT AFTER I POSTED THIS D:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?f=263
hehe mod announcement already closed again but this doesnt answer how he could make 1st post in dev sections, when i tried having 7 posts it still said "youve got to have at least 10" and denied posting in here...
as from obvious knowledge and status, he's not a mod or admin either. strange. did you find out anything JieeHD?

Wrong bootloader?

I recently rooted my phone, and it seems like I rooted with the international boot/kernel. When the phone turns on, it now shows the i9100 instead of 777. I have MIUI on the phone, calls and MMS and texts are working find. But because of the international thing, my back and search button won't work.
How can I fix this problem?
Why do people insist on coming to these forums and just download whatever catches their fancy without reading first? I'm really starting to sympathize with Miami_son. Everything you need to know is in the stickies in the general forum. Please take the time to read first this time.

Messaging

Hi there
I am struggling to find some info regarding the stock messaging app. Does this app lag scrolling up and down through conversations? This is the problem I have, you can see the screen tearing while you scroll slowly up and down, which is horrible and no matter if I try to do a factory reset (using kies or flashing firmware with odin) the issue will not get fixed. I think Jellybean has broken this app.
Does everyone think the same? I am 90 percent sure that this did not happen on ICS? please heeelllpp

You have to use another app. The stock one is laggy and long to open. Like the dialer.

I do agree that the ICS messaging works faster than that of JB's. It is a stock thing, so I believe there is no fix yet? Tsk
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
So you did notice the ics app faster and smoother. I was really confused because there were 2 updates and I couldn't find out which one messed it up. I don't think there is a fix yet. I only asked Samsung and they told me to call the S3 support but I didn't.
I do believe there are going to be more updates for the S3 even another version of Android which hopefully will fix it. I did ask a few people but theu said their messaging app worked fine but I think they didn't notice what I meant or they wouldn't care too much.
You can install jkays framework on stock odexed Rom and then with his deluxe settings app (paid) you can lock dialler and contacts in memory,.......regarding the tearing whilst scrolling, this nearly always happens when you have an accumulation of too many messages I keep my inbox pretty clean and never experience any tearing

Slaphead: I am talking about a few mesaages not a huge list; I have tried a lot of things which will never work. Unfortunately have to live with it until Samsung releases an update I think they must be aware of this? I wonder if any of the developers around here knows what is the issue and if anyone has implemented a fix on any other roms.
Try this...go developer options and check "force gpu rendering"

file issues

So I tried to go from beans 1.8 to liquid smooth 2.5. Well I found it wasnt as easy as I thought. I thought I could switch roms and reinstall titanium back up and use the apps and data on the new rom. WRONG, so then I went to restore my beans backup, it was gone.
Am I correct in saying that the phone, system, twrp something creates a new file system for ne roms? Once I finally got back to beans I started looking around the file system and found a file labeled 0 within my sd card and it seems to be a mirror image of my original file. Any ideas?

You have to flash the downgrade zip when going back to 4.1 from 4.2. Its I'm most of the 4.2 ROM OPs.
Also this is a question and should have been posted in Q&A not General.

It is posted in the OP of almost every AOSP ROM what to do when you go back to 4.1, you obviously didn't read the OP. I think its in droidstyles guide also but I may be wrong about that seeing as how I haven't checked it in a while.
No one knows all the terms; not me, not hopesrequiem, droidstyle, 1manwolfepack, kintwofan, or any of the others. The difference is we bust our asses to read everything before we jump in the deep end which you obviously didn't do. Its fine to ask questions if you need help or don't understand but there has been a large influx of brand new lazy users who do no research and want everything handed to them on a silver plate, making posts that show you barely read anything makes you appear like one.
Sorry if I butchered someone's name.

I understand and as I said it wont happen again. I had mentioned previously I had come from the samsung charge tweaked 3.2. Totally diffrent being able jump back and forth with it. But it was old and there where really no new roms available. So as you stated I jumped in feet 1st thinking things might be similar yet they are not. I did research and read. But not as thoroughly as I should and yes (I dont know any of your names) you all do put forth extreme effort in order to make the masses happy. And I will state again it is greatly appreciated.
I do not represent anybody other than myself in saying this, but coming from the device I had previously and it being so old and junping in feet 1st thinking I might be able to the same thing with this N2 is totally diffrent. So in turn questions where asked out of turn.

[Q&A] [ROM][OFFICIAL] CyanogenMod 13 Nightlies for i9300

Welcome all!
I took the liberty of creating this thread as a supplement to the development thread to keep the latter clean and to try to channel non-development related discussion here.
According to this post @forkbomb444 prefers those side-discussions to be had in another thread... and here it is.
Q: So what exactly is this thread meant for as opposed to development thread?
A: In the development thread bugs are to be reported only on stock configuration and then only when they are device specific (meaning only present on GT-i9300)!
Non-device related bugs should go to CM directly! It is the reporters responsibility to find out which is the case, e.g. through searching around and checking CM13 forums for other devices.
This thread (Q&A) on the other hand is for people who are not on stock configuration (using different kernel, xposed, superSU etc.)!
Q: What questions don't belong in this thread?
A: This thread is not general Q&A! So if you have questions related to e.g. rooting, repartitioning, getting twrp, using odin, getting your IMEI back etc. this is not the right place (and neither is the dev thread!).
Most of those questions can efficiently be answered by checking the excellent threads in my signature (see below).
So, if you finally come to the conclusion that this is the right place to ask/discuss your questions/ideas, please use the forum search A-N-D(!) skim over the last five pages of the thread, to see if it has already been discussed. If you can't find an answer, then post your questions here, being sure to give as much information as possible so that we can help wasting minimal time.
Thanks for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy!
The option to remove the brightness slider from apps drawer was gone, or is in another place respect CM 12 ?.
Other non relevant option missing is the one that hide the wrong pattern entered in the lock screen.

In current nightlies, bluetooth audio is completely broken, pending this change being merged (EDIT: hey I can merge that now! It'll be in tomorrow's nightly). But yes, even with that change, the sound does lag occasionally.
I'm using version of 2015-12-12. Should I wipe all to install the newer version?

1. The Q&A thread is not created by the dev of the rom. So its quite possible he might ignore anything asked here.
2. This thread is for questions regarding things indirectly related to the rom. Things such as boeffla kernel problems and configurations or the Super SU problem.
3. What you asked is a question relating to a feature request, which should belong to the main thread since it does not concern any other things.

While all of this is true, just for the record: The dev (forkbomb444) has been made aware of the thread via PM, has already added this thread in his OP of main thread and already responded here to a question asked. Although of course I can not say how closely he is/will be monitoring this thread.
