Hey guys, I've got a problem, and I'd ask it in the dev thread for this ROM, but seeing as I'm just a newb, I'm not allowed to post there. I've done some light searching around the forum and haven't found an answer, but if I happened to miss it, please forgive me for my newbishness.
Let me preface this by saying hot dang, I am SO glad that I flashed my Skyrocket with SKY-ICS. I've been running stock for half a year and after tasting SKY-ICS, I'll NEVER go back. I've seen that Seanz has worked up a great reputation with this SKY-ICS and now I can see why!
Anyways, my problem is that whenever I'm running PowerAmp and I put my screen to sleep, it stops playing music. When I turn my screen back on, I can quickly see up top that PowerAmp just gets activated again, like putting my phone to sleep caused it to terminate the application. I'm guessing this could be a design in the actual SKY-ICS, as in maybe it forces my phone into deep sleep when I press the power button? The only thing that confuses me on that is that Spotify will run perfectly even when my phone is "asleep."
Is anyone else having this problem? Or at least does anybody have any suggestions as to what I could do to solve this problem?
Thanks for your help guys!
Check your Settings in Poweramp.

Thanks for the reply, but I did already check on that, and I enabled "Use Wakelock," but that didn't seem to fix the problem... Any other suggestions?

Not sure. I'm running aokp and have no problems with poweramp. Maybe it's rom-related, i'm not too sure. I'll poke around and see if I can think of anything else.
Edit: Wondering if it's maybe due to whatever was stripped from the rom itself. Have you tried the regular safe base? If not, maybe you should make a nandroid and give it a shot if you're willing.

I may give that a shot whenever I get a little bit of time this weekend. I kind of figured it would be something that was stripped or something, but I couldn't ask it in the dev thread. Upon some more in-depth searching in the official thread (I discovered this handy search bar labeled "Search Thread"! Who knew?) I was able to come across a temporary solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28593163&postcount=114
But like I said, I'll probably troubleshoot it by trying out the other flavor, but this is a temporary solution that oughta work... If I find anything else out, I'll be sure to update this thread. Thanks for your willingness to help out a newb, btm fdr!
I just tested this and have the same problem. It's always worked on past SKY ICS Roms. This will be a HUGE inconvenience for me since I listen to music while riding my motorcycle. As soon as the screen goes off, PowerAmp stops playing.
I'll post it in the "SKY ICS AT&T Official" thread.
It's running fine for me on the dragon. Wakelock is unchecked.

I saw this thread in the Skyrocket General section, and then tested myself and realize I am experiencing the same issue:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1770780
I'm currently running:
4.2F6 R2 Rom (not speed dragon)
Update 1.7
UCLF6 modded kernel
Issue/symptom:
When playing music in PowerAmp, music stops playing as soon as screen shuts off. Music resumes when screen awakens. EDIT: music doesn't resume automatically.... I have to manually restart it in the PowerAmp player. I am double checking all settings in PowerAmp...
This is a major inconvenience since I listen to music while riding my motorcycle.
I haven't experienced this issue on previous SKY ICS. It worked perfectly on the "SKY ICS Rogers official release". All PowerAmp settings are the same from previous ROM versions (restored from Titanium Backup)
Thanks in advance!

I uninstalled/reinstalled PowerAmp, left the default settings, and it resolved the problem.
I went through each setting individually and confirmed that if I check:
Settings > Lock Screen > Enable Lock Screen
If that is checked, it breaks. If that is unchecked PowerAmp plays while screen is off.
This is a new "issue" on this Rom.
I also don't have the lock screen power amp controls. *shrug* I can live without that.
Thanks for posting the issue in the official thread. I agree, I can do without the controls if I must (as I only discovered them a few weeks ago,) but they really are handy to have. I'll keep an eye on the official thread for answers too.
The process is probably being turned off in setting on power amp theres a box to keep service on when screen is shut off,SKY ICS is a very awsome ROM though I was on it for some time

I tried turning that "keep service on" on/off eariler today while troubleshooting. That had no affect. Like I previously posted, the setting that "breaks" it is the "Enable Lock Screen" in the PowerAmp Lock Screen Settings.
I also tested it with different lock screens (AOSP, Stock TW Launcher Lock Screen, etc...)
This wasn't an issue on the "Rogers" (AT&T Safe) release. This just started happening since I flashed tot he new "AT&T Official" release. I've been using SKY Roms on the SkyRocket since December, and this is the first time it's had this symptom.
I too have only had the problem when setting the poweramp lockscreen not the ics lockscreen that is the only way i can change my music on lock. If i hit enable poweramp lockscreen i get a fc. I havent had the problem of music stopping when i lock my screen, then again i bought my poweramp on the offical site and thats where you can download both the app and the key. So maybe download the app from the site? Has anyone had a probelm with the playlists? I would make a playlist and have like 60 or so songs and every now and then they disappear? Sometimes it just goes to 0 songs but the playlist is still there. I export/import my playlists now to another location but i havent had the time to explore this situation.
Hi guys,
I tried searching for this but I keep running into very old threads.
I read on Android Central forum that there's a zip file to make Galaxy S3 CM10 have the same exact menu bar as Nexus devices and completely disable the capacitive buttons.
Could someone please point me to this zip file? Also, is it possible that this is already just an option in CM10?
This is honestly the only thing stopping me from getting this phone. Since I have Nexus 7, I don't like how I have to adjust to buttons every time I use my wife's Galaxy S3.
Thank you.

I am running the 9/6 build and i havent had any issues with the ROM.
not one reboot, no screen flicker, everything works for me.
just do a nandroid prior so you can revert back.
if i remmeber correctly, there is a bug that causes the backlights of the keys to stay on. nto sure if its been fixed

I think most CM based Roms have the option to disable the capacitive buttons and enable the on screen navigation bar.
Unless it's been fixed now, when I was running Paranoid Android every time you reboot your phone you have to go back in to the settings and disable the lights on the capacitive buttons.
I remember shortly after getting my Nexus 5 that I noticed a hand icon in quick settings for do not disturb setting..
I went to use it the other day and it had disappeared. I had unlocked and rooted and also flashing custom kernel.
So as I couldn't find any setting to re enable, and suspecting it might have been something I had done, I downloaded Google nexus 5 image and reflashed to stock, but still no joy .
Any advice ?

I don't remember seeing anything like this, as I recall. But I am disappointed that the Quick Settings are not really all that quick. Tapping things like Bluetooth or Wifi takes you to the full settings page for that feature instead of simply toggling it on and off as I usually am trying to do.

If you hold the icon instead of clicking it, it turns on the radio. For example, pressing WiFi takes you to the WiFi settings page, but long holding the icon will just turn it on. Same for BT.
As for the Do not Disturb, I've never seen that. I know iOS has it...and I'm sure there are Google Play apps to do something similar, but Android doesnt have that stock.
Sadly it doesn't exist in stock android. They really have to add that. Every other platform has it except stock android.
EDIT: Yes, I know touchwiz and sense have it.

I found that you can press the power button and from that menu you can set the volume to vibrate or mute. Not sure if this is what you were looking for.
Thankfully custom ROMs will be here soon (in more complete/stable forms) to make all of these annoying issues better. Stock Android lacks some seriously useful little touches, but that's why we got unlocked devices....

On all custom Roms I've tried so far (and they've been a few), there's an ongoing problem while using Android Auto connected to the car's built-in display. Basically, if you plug in your phone and start using AA, after a while the bottom bar on the car's display will disappear, and although you can keep driving and AA will keep working, once you stop and unplug the phone from the car, the phone will lock you out and it's screen will start to flicker and go crazy, giving you no other option but to force reboot the phone.
This issue was present on MIUI Oreo roms as well, but since they updated to Pie last month, it was addressed and a fix was found (seems it was related to the devices default display drivers). For custom Roms, there's a temporary workaround, which is to disable hardware overlays in developer settings, but you need to do this every time you reboot your phone since these settings don't stick permanently.
I've posted and mentioned this issue on several different custom ROM threads, but as far as I know, none of the devs has acknowledged the issue nor has tried to find a solution. So, the question is; how many of you have the same problem?
Please provide your feedback, as it would be good to let the devs know this is not unimportant or isolated.

For me with MIUI 8.12.27 weekly EU version and Skoda Bolero display I'm not having the issue you describe.

Yes, and it was (plenty of comments on MIUI forums and over the net, if you want to take a look...) They fixed it on Pie, and if you're still running Oreo and don't have issues, then I guess they fixed it there, too.
This poll, topic and thread is for the issues still affecting Aosp based custom roms, such as Crdroid, PE, Lineage, etc.
Even I would like to know the result of this poll. I am on the verge of trying out a custom ROM (since i am done with the bugs in MIUI). But if AA doesn't work on custom ROM, it is a showstopper for me.
Hi,
I have a different issue with Android Auto.
My problem is that when I connect to Android Auto, after a couple of minutes (1-2, 2-3 minutes) the screen on the car's display seems to be stuck, and from then on it doesn't follow my progress on the way. The screen itself is not frozen, because e.g. I can make a reroute but after it is done it goes back to the "original" state of my route when it stopped progressing. The screen remains responsive regarding the controls because I can even change to Google Maps on the car's AA display, and it works flawlessly.
Anyone else had this issue?

I'm currently on Crdroid, and in my opinion it's the one that works best. As for the AA issue, it's present on all custom roms, but for the time being, I'm using the workaround I mentioned on OP and can use AA fully.

Strange, I tried an EU rom about a couple of weeks ago for a few days and AA worked out of the box. Didn't like the MIUI stuff, though, so reverted back to Crdroid.
I however remember I flashed the full MIUI rom completely, wiping everything and starting from scratch, so if you want to stick with MIUI, maybe you should do a fresh install...

Thanks, I had read you could use tasker for that, but it's a paid app and I wouldn't be using it for anything else at the moment. I'm fine with remembering to disable it manually. Still, I believe the issue has to be addressed at some point by the devs...
One General question:
The only thing keeping me away from custom roms is the AA issue. Nice to hear that at least we have a workaround.
At the moment i am on MIUI Android pie and using a VW in build AA Display. The issue i'm having is that WhatsApp notifications are not shown on the Display. I can send WhatsApp Messages via Ok Google but not able to hear received messages.
Do you guys have the same issue?

Wouldn't be able to confirm that, although I did read somewhere that if you're using any Dual apps on MIUI, AA won't work correctly. Are you using two WhatsApp accounts by any chance...?
I can tell you though that on the current rom I'm using (crdroid), they do work and appear on the cars screen, although most of the time there's no notification ringtone whenever they arrive. Since that was happening on my previous phones too, be it on nougat, oreo and pie, I guess that's a problem with AA itself...
Thanks for your quick reply.
Happy to hear that it is generally working.
Not using dual Apps. Will try to flash a custom Rom in the next days

If it still won't work, then Im guessing it could maybe be due to different screen panels or something...

Seems fine on my PH1 but then I never seem to have all the weird issues others have. Stock unrooted.
Maybe a placebo, but I've noticed a marked improvement in touch and scrolling.
Edit: I've had it running the latest beta for. 12 hours, and have noticed the standby battery drain is much improved for me compared to previous betas.
Also feel faster so far. When I was travelling with maps and play music on it got painfully slow, hanging all the time. Now it looks better. But banking app still not working :/ not sure how I'm going to get it working.

My beta 4 has been working flawlessly besides the screen studder when I swipe home from within EVERY app. Getting great battery life, 6.5hr+ on screen time with every charge, with 4hrs+ of them being streaming videos. If I don't watch videos, this phone will easily last at least 3.5-4 days. All this at 60% screen brightness.
With that said, I'd hate to install beta 5 and have new issues and worse battery life.
Beta 5 has been good for me. Good battery life about as good as beta 4 was but the only issue I have is even after going full gesture navigation. It seems to go back to 3 button mode randomly and I'll have to change it back. Also I don't see the option to enable the side peek feature that was supposed to be a part of beta 5

Are you using the stock launcher? Supposedly Google added a "feature" that blocks you from using full gestures if you're using a 3rd party launcher on beta 5.

Hmm na I'm currently using rootless pixel launcher because in beta 4 on quickstep with dark theme the app drawer apps had white letters on white background unless you changed your wallpaper to a dark one.
So your saying if I use the quickstep I can also enable the peek feature?

I'm not sure about the peek feature (to be honest I don't know what that is), what I was getting at was about the navigation reverting to 3 button. If you're using something other than stock launcher, it's supposed to force you to use the 3 button navigation according to Google, so that might be why you're seeing that behavior.
Also, beta 5 fixed the dark theme issue.
Edit: Peek is working.

I didn't have to enable anything, it was just working. I had full gestures as my default when I flashed, and I didn't change anything after that. Looked in settings as well, no option there. I'm assuming it should be on by default.
If you're having trouble with it, disable grip rejection, that could be conflicting with it.
