1. BT calls not working, media is fine.
2. Ringtones don't stick, on reboot.
3. Location icon shows up in status bar intermittently. Not sure if it's running, or not.
4. Doesn't always show as charging, when plugged in. Not sure if it's charging, or not.
5. Wireless charging not working. Says it is, but it's not. Just had my phone on my charging pad, for an hour, and it lost a percent.

i'm able to send text messages on Validus (using Evolve).
i just flashed Validus, and am wondering if BT calling works? I know it's a known issue with AOSP roms.
Vanir: 1. BT calling doesn't work.
2. something with proximity sensor - screen doesn't turn back on when call ends or when move phone away from face.
3. wireless charging doesn't work yet (shows as "charging" but doesn't actually charge).
Vanir was just a quick release, and they are working on 5.0 rom now.
EDIT: wireless charging seems to not be working with Validus, either (Tylt charger).

@Bwen droiD thanks for the comprehensive bug list! This will be a great resource as more ROMs and updates are released.
As for Official Liquid Smooth
- BT audio is working, but BT calling is not fully functional (caller on other end cannot hear you, similar to pretty much all vs985 AOSP based ROMs I believe)
- dt2w has sporadic issues

Thanks for the report!!

With latest invisiblek's CM12 build, bluetooth calling is fixed.

Just realized that ringtones will stick, on CM12, if you have them on the phone's internal storage. If you have them on your sd, you lose them on reboot.

Thanks for the reports!!

Blue tooth calls also now fixed in cm-11 which is also now starting official nighlies

[ALL CARRIERS][BUGS] Post your issues here with the phone here | Updated: 7/20/12

Reported/Confirmed Bug List for US Galaxy S3 Variants
This is going to be for the stock ROM and hopefully this will be a starting point for devs of this great device to start ironing them out in their custom ROMs. If you are not on a stock ROM, please do not post issues here unless it is a common issue throughout all ROMs you have tried. For example, WIFI disconnecting on any and all ROMs you have used. This is to weed out the actual issues/bugs from ROM issues/bugs.
I will try to keep the issues list up to date. If you see one not in the OP, please PM me!
If this has helped you, please click "Thanks"
Note: If you are having issues with connectivity via Bluetooth with car systems, please note that it is probably not a bug. While Bluetooth connectivity works on some cars, other cars might not be compatible. This is once again not a bug. It is just a lack of compatibility.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rules:
-Do a search first.
-If you find the same issue, quote it and +1. Once an issue is confirmed by three different people, I will update it from Reported to Confirmed.

Try to switch the encryption and see if that fixes it. If it does then this will be a confirmed issue.
I am here to learn.Thanks for sharing.
Ok it's been about 10 mins without a single drop...seems to have corrected the issue. I was using WPA-PSK [TKIP+AES] and I switched to just TKIP. I'll check back in a bit and let you know after about an hour or so. I'll try it using just AES then switch back to TKIP+AES and I will also try on 5gHz bandwidth.

Glad to see that it worked. Let me know and I'll post it up as a workaround for the time being.
Ok so it seems that the only WiFi issue I'm experiencing stems from using duel encryptions. It works fine using WAP2-PSK [AES] alone. WPA-PSK [TKIP] works fine alone as well. I played around with the settings for a bit but I couldn't seem to get it to work properly on duel encryption.

Are you restoring a backup from an HTC device or perhaps a backup from a Froyo device?
WIFI Disconnect/Reconnect Issue
Here's the issue I've been having. I'm in a very active wifi neighborhood. Even though I had the advanced wifi set to 'Always on' it kept disconnecting (and instantly reconnecting) to my network. The phone is scanning the neighborhood almost every 15 seconds. It's simply WPA-2 with just AES (and I'm not changing to TKIP)
This is a problem for me as I use "WiFI Unlock" to keep from having to enter my PIN when I'm at work/home and "Home Sweet Home" which uploads any photos I have taken to my server when it detects the home wifi network (and deletes them from my phone after 3 months).
Anyway, I was just on the chat with Samsung and in the end we did this,
1. disable the ATT WIFI auto login function (seems there's something similar on the Sprint phones that's a issue).
2. soft reboot the phone (turn off, pull battery, count to 30, boot up)
However this suggested solution doesn't work.
The wifi isn't staying connected though the breaks are very very temporary, but long enough for those apps to kick in.
Update additional things tried:
3. Turned off WiFi power save in the *#0011# service menu
4. Turned off Open WiFi notifications
5. Selected a single wifi band (5Ghz) where there is ONLY one network, mine
FWIW, I like that it connects to my 5Ghz wifi at 150 mbps, the speed is great.
Here's a video of the issue showing the phone:

Here's a videoe of the issue showing the router: http://youtu.be/rRALDc8LZOk
Yeah this is the same issue. I tried turning off sprint auto connection feature and also dialing *#0011# menu> WiFi> and disabling WiFi power save mode. But either of those had no effect after I had rebooted the phone. Maybe you should give it a try, it seems we have the same problem but with different encryptions.

I had hope for a few minutes that this would work ( *#0011# ) but it's the constant rescanning for networks.... since so many wifi in my 'hood have the channels set to auto, they're constantly changing as they compete for space. This is why I wanted a phone with 5Gh- I even set it to only use the 5Ghz* but that doesn't do it either even though I can only see ONE network with 5Ghz, mine. this phone is constantly scanning and every few scans reconnecting.
turning off the AutoNotify of open wifi doesn't help either.
It's a plot to make you use more data on the carrier's network!
*which is bad for me, since I rely on wifi which is mostly 2.4Ghz when I'm out of the house (may need some NFC tags for the car or house doors.

WIFI Disconnect/Reconnect Issue - Level 3 report
FWIW. I just got off a 45 minute call with Samsung Help Support, went to level 3 support in Texas. This is newly documented, I've referenced this forum for additional reports of the dual encryption and the wifi connnect/reconnect issue I'm having. My ticket # 2113584507 (just for disconnect/reconnect) which you can mention at level 1 as having the same disconnect/connect issue. I specifically asked if I could post the ticket # so anyone could reference it at Level 1, but they will still take your own experience down.
Level 3 said they expect that they will be getting calls today since it's the first full day after the release. So if you want it fixed, CALL SAMSUNG, they're collecting bug reports.

SlimKat umts_spyder build 3.4 2014-03-04 short review

Hi
I prepared short review for SlimKat 3.4 unofficial build for XT910 UMTS.
I use it for a last few days and my general impression is positive.
But lets start from beginning...
1. Instalation
I use SafeStrap, so installation process is very easy: create slot, install software and gapps, clean cache and Dalvik cache. That's all.
After booting of phone there is sort setup and phone is ready to work. ALMOST...
After next restart phone stops connecting to network and to fix that problem it is necessary manually delete CellBroadcastReceiver.apk what is very easy because SlimKat is delivered with SlimCenter containing SlimSizer when user can delete any app.
So, delete it, reboot and forget about network connection problems. Why this app is delivered with most of KitKat ROMs for XT910 UMTS I do no understand. All of them have the same problem after rebooting.
2. Daily usage
I use it as my daily driver last days and it worked really good. I noticed just one crash when I used Any.do app but I cannot reproduce it so far.
Battery life is good for me - see BatteryLife.jpg attached. On the other hand I was totally surprised when I charged battery to 102% - see Battery102.jpg - really strange.
I turned system to use ART instead of Dalvik and I haven't noticed any problem so far. Every app I used worked properly. Of course app installation time is a bit longer now, but good information is that apps starts faster.
Call/receive calls - not problem. Sound is clean.
WiFi - I haven't noticed any problem with connection/disconnecting WiFi networks. Everything worked good.
GPS gets position really fat, I was very surprised with that.
SMS sending works properly but I still cannot send any MMS message. Nevermind data transmission is enabled. I does not work. To receive MMS data transmission must be enabled. This is the biggest bug I noticed.
Flip actions to dismiss call or alarm also don't work what confuses me. It worked perfectly in CARBON 4.2.2 version I used for long time.
It looks very strange in action: flip down - no action performed, flip up - phone seems to be blocked for some time and after a few seconds you can finally dismiss alarm or call.
Memory usage is much better than in 4.2.2 ROMs. After boot there is used 434MB and free 405MB of RAM with all of my services and widgets started. Great result.
Bleutooth I didn't test. I use it very seldom and it is not much important to me.
What was new for me - used apps display. It is changed in SlimKat - nice right side panel is displayed with list of used application.
Generally I must say that I like SlimKat. It has all options I really need to use it every day. I'm happy with Real dark option which turns system and most important apps into black theme, performance good enough without replacing kernel, ART support without problems and smoothness of GUI.
I hope that strange battery behavior and MMS sending problems will be fixed in next releases
And maybe XT910 will be officially supported by SlimKat team?

Small update:
MMS issue: installing 8sms application solves problem. Probably Messaging app does not resize image and whole MMS message is declined by network as too big.
SlimKat umts_spyder build 3.6 2014-03-09
I performed dirty flash of SlimKat 3.6 over SlimKat 3.4 - no problems.
Everything works as it worked before. I haven't noticed any new problems.
I'm still not happy with bad flip actions support but that this problem exists in every of tested KK ROMs - looks it is general malfunction.
Waiting for new version...
bluetooth
Hi I would be curious to know if the bluetooth works, in particular in the car. also if the bluetooth has any problems pairing and keeping the pair when you change from flight mode to normal, if you have to pair again or not . thanks for the review
Hi
I have tested bluetooth with other phone and headset and haven't noticed any problems. You do not have to pair devices again after going off flight mode.
SlimKat 3.8 upgrade
Hi
I performed dirty flash to SlimKat 3.8 without problems. CellBroadcastReceiver.apk is still delivered so you have to delete it manually to get rid of cell connection problems
After that device works good. Still great memory management
I noticed that problems with flip actions seems to be almost resolved and now I can dismiss call and alarm flipping down my phone.
For calls it works immediately but for alarms I need to perform flip down - flip up - flip down and after some delay alarm is dismissed.
What I'd like to see in SlimKat are Performance options in settings. Of course I can install some app to manipulate processor settings and governors but I think this should be part of system delivery.
And, of course, XT910 is still not supported officially, so forget OTA.
How about slim 4,any surprised?
I used SlimKat for a while and I found it REALLY FAST AND SMOOTH! I reccommend it!
Now I'm installing the 4.0 build and we'll see how it works
the only problem I experienced: when discharging completely to "0%"...my phone resets itself, quite strange/frustrating...
I'm still on 3.8. Yesterday I dischrged battery to 0% and phone shot down correctly , not restarted automatically.
Abou 4.0 - I'm a bit confused. SlimRoms.net does not mention that so far but in changelog we can find 3.10 version: http://slimroms.net/index.php/changelog.
I'll wait a bit
hello
I installed 4.4.2 build 4 and I got the network problem and after i deleted the cellbroadcast.. it worked!! but now i have a problem with the hotspot ;( my brother tried to connect but he couldn't ;( do you know what to do to solve this little problem?
I havent tried wifi tethering before (no need) but it looks problem exists. I also cannot connect to established hotspot (I still on 3.8). I remember that there was tethering problem on beginning of work on kitkat custom roms for Razr device but it was fixed long time ago.

Hello, 1st post here I LOVE Slimkat for our Razr, I've been running the latest updates in slot 1 for months and for the last few days I've run the latest build in the stock slot and love it even more.
But I have to agree that AP / hotspot / wifi tether is not working anymore. It was working fine for a while there -- here are notes in the update log:
29DEC2013 - CM's netd code "hopefully fixes wifi tether" [I think it started working around here for the 1st time]
09FEB2014 - "mobile hotspot fixed" [might have broke again along the line ? ]
In the last 2 builds (20MAR2014 first then tried 27MAR2014 both as dirty flash and then fresh in slot 1), I can create a hotspot but nothing can join. Too bad because I really make use of it, hope it gets fixed again soon
And thx to original poster for posting a quality review of what is one of the best ROMs for our classic spyder.
After a week on SlimKat 4.0 i have to say that it is really solid and stable. Wifi tethering is known problem (reported to dev forum). I also noticed that my favourite governor "hotplug" is no longer supported and battery usage over night is now 4% instead of 2% I used to. I'm not sure hotplugging is supported by interactive or ondemand governors. I think I'll try to use JBX kernel with SlimKat and see how good it is. If you have any experiences, plz share with me.
Whew this guy figured out that the CM11 WiFi AP fix still also works for us:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51713472&postcount=1592
just installed and it's working.
Finally I tested SlimKat with JBX kernel (only battery saver enabled) and I havent noticed any better bsttery life. There was even worse than without it: 5-6% over night consumption when phone did nothing. I also played with governors enabled in JBX what almost every time caused system hanging.
So, finally I resign of JBX and made decision to give another chsnce to Carbon Rom that was my daily driver for months (release 4.2.2).
I must say I'm surprised how good is Carbon now - I remember first 4.4 releases. Everything seems to work properly including tethering. What is quite important for UMTS razor users we can disable CellBroadcastReceiver in settings - no need to delete it and restart phone.
There is one feature I love especially: lockscreen notifications. This is killer feature for me.
What is also important for me, Hotplug governor is enabled in kernel and again I have overnight usage 2-3%.
I must say I'm currently very satisfied with Carbon Rom. Looks it became my daily driver again.

Hi
I prepared short review for SlimKat 3.4 unofficial build for XT910 UMTS.
I use it for a last few days and my general impression is positive.
But lets start from beginning...
1. Instalation
I use SafeStrap, so installation process is very easy: create slot, install software and gapps, clean cache and Dalvik cache. That's all.
After booting of phone there is sort setup and phone is ready to work. ALMOST...
After next restart phone stops connecting to network and to fix that problem it is necessary manually delete CellBroadcastReceiver.apk what is very easy because SlimKat is delivered with SlimCenter containing SlimSizer when user can delete any app.
So, delete it, reboot and forget about network connection problems. Why this app is delivered with most of KitKat ROMs for XT910 UMTS I do no understand. All of them have the same problem after rebooting.
2. Daily usage
I use it as my daily driver last days and it worked really good. I noticed just one crash when I used Any.do app but I cannot reproduce it so far.
Battery life is good for me - see BatteryLife.jpg attached. On the other hand I was totally surprised when I charged battery to 102% - see Battery102.jpg - really strange.
I turned system to use ART instead of Dalvik and I haven't noticed any problem so far. Every app I used worked properly. Of course app installation time is a bit longer now, but good information is that apps starts faster.
Call/receive calls - not problem. Sound is clean.
WiFi - I haven't noticed any problem with connection/disconnecting WiFi networks. Everything worked good.
GPS gets position really fat, I was very surprised with that.
SMS sending works properly but I still cannot send any MMS message. Nevermind data transmission is enabled. I does not work. To receive MMS data transmission must be enabled. This is the biggest bug I noticed.
Flip actions to dismiss call or alarm also don't work what confuses me. It worked perfectly in CARBON 4.2.2 version I used for long time.
It looks very strange in action: flip down - no action performed, flip up - phone seems to be blocked for some time and after a few seconds you can finally dismiss alarm or call.
Memory usage is much better than in 4.2.2 ROMs. After boot there is used 434MB and free 405MB of RAM with all of my services and widgets started. Great result.
Bleutooth I didn't test. I use it very seldom and it is not much important to me.
What was new for me - used apps display. It is changed in SlimKat - nice right side panel is displayed with list of used application.
Generally I must say that I like SlimKat. It has all options I really need to use it every day. I'm happy with Real dark option which turns system and most important apps into black theme, performance good enough without replacing kernel, ART support without problems and smoothness of GUI.
I hope that strange battery behavior and MMS sending problems will be fixed in next releases
And maybe XT910 will be officially supported by SlimKat team?

Hi!
I installed Slimkat version 7.0 stable and my cell phone (S3 I9300) lost network connection randomly. Duration of connection is 1 - 2 seconds max. If I delete CellBroadcastReceiver.apk as you say, network connection will be stable, without disconnect randomly?
Thanks!

I think u mean 12.
Thanks for ur work
Thank you for this!
Are you abandoning AOSP rom and only focusing on this now? Why did you prefer CM12 rather than AOSP?
Nice, can't wait for the major bugs to be fixed so I can try it out!
gps on cm12
Gps working for me (very very fast locking)
This rom is smoother than aosp 5.0.
Camera doesn't work with any app, also teslaled doesn't work.
Graphical glitches are also when rotate screen, not only when turn it off.
Gps works good after download lto with gps fixer. I think a little better than in cm11. I tried it on aosp and it doesn't work even with gps fixer.
I miss aosp task manager in notifications.
I didn't try calls yet to know if there is echo.
On aosp I have poor phone signal (half full) but on this rom it's full.
Is it just me or it is not possibile to get root privileges?

¿robot or root?
I'm rooted flashing supersu 2.30 beta (now updated to 2.35)
Ooops, i meant root of course! I thought there was no need for SuperSu (like in CM11).
My bad!
I can confirm, gps works well after downloading lto data im gps fixer. Unfortunately mobile data dont work for me. Artas good work!
So I tried the rom and it seems fairly smooth.
A part from the bugs already written in the first post
- mobile internet does not work, only wifi
-Privacy guard force closes if I try to open apps settings
-when I close a call dialer force closes
-if I try to delete call history in dialer it force closes too
-alarm doesn't work, clock application crashes
Haven't tried GPS but camera doesn't work anywhere, as state before. AOSP ROM seems more stable to me.
Great new CM version and artas fixing gonna give us soon a stable 5.0.
We have to thank to artas for his gift to us.

More bugs I experienced:
Bluetooth fc's when trying to send a file.
Echo in calls seem fixed but sometimes caller can't hear me and I have to hang up and call again.
Uhm i guess I should have reinstalled. Maybe some configurations of mine were the problem. I'm gonna wait for a camera fix mainly, at least if I can use third party app.

- Mobile internet does not work, only wifi
- ALARM - OK
- GPS - OK
- Something breaks the sound. How bad it will wake the phone or audio can not be that someone is calling, sms or even to activate the alarm.
- Off the phone and connected to the charger - lit display
- Camera doesn't work with any app.
- Echo in calls seem fixed but sometimes caller can't hear me and I have to hang up and call again.
- Stock ... Most visible when rotating an image.
- Lack of access to the phone when connected to a computer.

LG G2 CyanogenMod 12, 11-May-15 Nightly build feedback (cm-12-20150511-NIGHTLY-d802)

Hi All, just wanted to start this thread to add my feedback for CM12 11th May 2015 build.
I flashed the ROM using TWRP after a complete wipe. Before this ROM, I was on CyanogenMod 11, 20141115-SNAPSHOT-M12-d802
Download Google Apps from here. Version CM 12 (20141212)
So far, I have an amazing experience with this ROM
Everything works as it should (Wi-Fi, calls, messaging, camera etc etc.).
Battery life seems to have improved. There was an issue in the previous ROM. Google Play Services use to keep a wakelock for one of its processes. This was resulting in immense battery drain.
This ROM seems to be lighter than CM11
The interface is smooth as butter, no lags nothing.
CM11 also use to give me random call drops (loads of them), CM12, no issues.
Hope this helps : )
Alrigt are you sure about everthing working? What about wifi drop when bt toggling

Yup, no issues with BT toggling either.. even tried transferring a file. worked perfectly.
Rotation works without flashing baseband?
Sent from my LG-D802
didn't flash anything but the CM12 ROM and GApps.. from the links above.. Did a clean install. Rotation works perfectly well...
I'll just leave this here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/general/rom-cyanogenmod-official-nightlies-5-0-t2994910
this has nothing to do with android development
please use existing threads, like the one linked above me.

All good. It's my daily driver. Awesome experience so far.
Found one issue.. Not sure if its ROM specific. I use open WiFi when in travelling to work via tube. I always use to be able to connect to the WiFi and sign in to the network. Now I can connect but can't sign in to the network. Cm12s 'sign in to network' is very different than the one on CM11. In CM11, I will need to click on 'Sign in to network' notification and it will take me to the default browser for signing in. In CM12, it doesn't take me to the browser, rather I get a dedicated 'sign in to network' window (see attachment) and it never signs in.
This not a big issue but I thought I will point it out : )
