Using Cyanogen Mod (Question) - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Hey Everyone,
Alright, I know this is a noob move, but I didn't backup my google apps or anything like that. I used the Settings -> About Phone -> CyanogenMod Update and installed cm-10.1.0.3. I thought it was some automated love machine, and everything would come out alright. But I lost my Gapps. Now I have the latest gapps for my phone. But I cannot get Rom Manager to install and I cannot reboot into any kind of recovery mode.
Would love some help, thank you all so much!

adb reboot recovery
or
enable the advanced reboot settings in the developer settings menu item.
To do that, you'll need to enable the developer settings by going to Settings->About Phone and clicking the build number 7 times.

Actually thank you so much, I was able to reboot into recovery, I have also installed the Gapps back! This is a great way to end a stressful thing! LOL Thanks again!

I really love CM, but the bluetooth issue is killing me since I use bluetooth everyday. Anyone tried to go back to TW based ROM after CM? Should I do anything special to get around the profiles/SDCARD 0 created by 4.2.2 or just flash normally?

I would just wipe and flash like normal, then after you're all done move the files u want to keep out of the "0" folder. I read somewhere that you can safely do that. So just keep what u want and delete the rest. That's how I would go about doing it. Might want to try the PAC ROM. Don't know if the BT thing is fixed. Prolly not since it's cm based.

No Service On Atrix 2 When Installing Custom Roms

Sorry if Im not posting correctly, I've used this site a lot for research and whatnot, but couldn't find anything on this topic. So whenever I install a custom rom that is not ICS, I have no data, and barely any service. I installed NUMA and that has been working great, but whenever I try any Jellybean Roms (Carbon, Avatar, Pac-ROM) I have the issue with data and service. I have no idea if I'm installing them wrong or anything, what I usually have done to install roms (and it works with ICS), is to open the Boot Menu Manager while the phone is booting, going into recovery, then preform a factory reset, after that I install the Rom from ZIP. If anyone has any ideas on how to fix this, it'll be greatly appreciated.
Check the apn settings
Settings > wireless and networks (click more) mobile networks > access point names
If this correct, try to disable sim card pin lock on stock ics system

When I checked the Access Point Names list, there is nothing in the list, should there be something?
Sorry if I sound stupid, I am completely new to rooting.

Really? I did put CM10.2 on my phone, really like it. So I checked your recommendations on the phone. Yeah, just what you said, root adb and applications. My phone is enabled and I never lost root on it. You get a Thanks.
Now how to update to 10.2 on the Tab. CWM only lets you flash one zip at a time where Safe Strap will allow you to stack the rom and gapps. I got CWM Pro and don't see anyway to flash more than one zip at a time and this gave a system 7 error. The update is there in about phone, if I allow unstable and nightlies, but installing it dumps me into recovery. Safe Strap on phone, piece of cake. One zip at a time in ClockworkMod, not so easy. Any ideas?
Awesome. I went into CWM Rom Manager and decided to use TWRP instead of CWM, used the update in Settings/About Phone/Update. It did work! But everything is crashing, I had to install new gapps. So I went back and flashed the new gapps. Problem is, playstore is broke, errors everytime it tries to install or update, would not connect at all until new gapps. Wiped data, still not working right. Others had this problem, any ideas on how to restore playstore functionality? Thanks, you guys rock!
Found the answer here, and it works!
I tried everything form everywhere. Nothing worked until I did this. Following the steps below.
RPC:AEC:0 error is known as CPU/RAM/Device/Identity failure.
Only possible way you can follow to get rid off this error is,
Go to settings ? application ? Play Store ? Clear Data & Clear Cache.
Go to accounts ? Google ? Remove account.
Reboot device.

Titanium Backup
Can't restore apps with Titanium Backup pro. Just hangs at 0%. Tried 12/24 and 12/22 release. Not the apps because I can install individually. enabled root for apps and adb and gave titanium root access. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong.
I'm currently on bumpd cloudy stock 1.2 and cannot get illusion to flash either on my external or internal SD. What's the trick?
Idk what I'm doing wrong I'm coming from cm nightly. I'm trying to install this rom. I have cleaned flashed this like 5 times already with different downloads and I either get a boot loop or I get Google services crashes or I'm getting illusion home crashes. Some please help me. I'm so confused to why this isn't working..

Same thing happened with me, all you have to do is flash the latest SuperSU thought recovery. That solved that same problem i had last night. Hopefully that helps for you.
External SD Issue
Am using as daily driver. Haven't been able to get it to recognize my 128 gb card. Have reformatted on both the phone and pc.
Clean install every time, wiped everything including both internal and external. Have tried what someone had suggested, install ROM, setup and then boot into recovery and install GAPPS. For now am using 64gb card. Any help would greatly appreciated. Great work, can't wait until this little hiccup is resolved.

what did you format too? I had mine formatted to Fat32 and that didn't work for me so i had it formatted to ext4 works great now.
Where can I find the modified messenger that comes with this ROM?
Sent from my LG-D850 using XDA Free mobile app
Thanks for the update! Loving the new additions!!
Screen timeout
I can't get my screen timeout setting of 1 minute to stick. It keeps resetting to 30 seconds. Am I alone in this?
I'm starting to think that it's a CM12 issue, since I saw it in early versions of it before coming here.
Has anyone had problems with Instagram and posting videos? Seems like when I take video and post it Instagram flips it sides ways..
Bluetooth issue
Hey i have been using this rom for a couple of days now and it is awesome. It definitely tops the other ROMs that I have tried for this phone by far. The only problem that I am having is that I cant get the Bluetooth to connect to anything. Is there anything that I can try to get the BT working?
sorry if i'm missing the obvious, but is there a way to turn off the notification light while charging? i didn't see it in the 'display' or 'sound & notification' menu under "interface". thanks

I have the same problem. I have searched and searched but been unable to find any way to access Recents. Long pressing the home key does nothing. I also tried the Recently app but could not figure out how to get it to activate.
pretty awesome !
after flashing "Slim-skyrocket-5.1.1.alpha.0.3-UNOFFICIAL-20150607-0208" I keep asking myself "why my battery is not draining" It's like -0.5%/hr during deep sleep.

Not sure. Maybe stock video player doesn't support that video format.
Try MX player and tell me which video format is not working? Oh boy ! ?

SlimLP - Skyrocket
Hey everyone. I am currently 20150607-0208 version. I am thinking of switching to the latest version with the F2FS support. I need guidance on how to install this specific rom. Just need to confirm few things. So i wipe date and cache to F2FS and i wipe dalvik cache and system in the normal way we usually do? Then I flash rom and gapps? Thats it?

Format /data and /cache to F2FS. Then wipe /system and /dalvik (yes, clean flash). Make sure you make a nandroid backup first. This will also preserve your current file system type for data and cache for when you restore, if needed.
You might want to wait until my next build is posted to try it. There will be a bunch of things fixed as well as new features.
Help needed. Strange problem
Hey. I really need help here. I have been using SlimLP for quite sometime now. No issues no nothing. I was using the latest rom with the F2FS support. I was using it and suddenly it flashed, vibrated and kept on vibrating. I did not pay much attention. Took the battery out, reinserted it and it worked fine. I was already thinking of trying Paranoid so i had already put the respective rom and gapps in the phone.
So i changed the rom and clean flashed Paranoid. It worked fine for a few days but i started experiencing the same problem again. I use the phone, it flashes, vibrates and then keeps on vibrating. I try pressing power button so it shows samsung logo, starts to boot as i can see the paranoid icon, but breaks in between and the same thing happens. But sometimes its able to boot properly. I use the phone for a while and same thing happens.
I clean flashed this rom again. Same issue. Clean flashed the previous Slim rom. same issue. Restored backup from slim rom. same issue. Restored backup of my stock jellybean. Same issue! Please help!
My phone is currently sitting idle and i am not experiencing any issue. As soon as i use it, after a minute or two i face this problem. Please help.
Help with google
Thank you very much for the hard work and do appreciate it all.
Am coming from a different rom which is also 5.1 and am using latest philz touch recovery. I cleared everything including dalvik cache and
flashed both rom and gapps and the phone boots up successfully. Am actually enjoying the rom but my problem is i can't setup google account on the rom. It force closes during the account setup process.
Re-flashed the rom successfully, as the first time around it did not ask me Language or Google account info and Google Play services kept crashing endlessly. Maybe I just needed to flash it again, or maybe the Gapps package I got didn't agree with my setup (now using Slim_zero_gapps.BETA.5.1.build.0.x-20150820 and it seems to work ok). Thanks for the upload! I have been looking for a good custom rom to run my i727 until I upgrade to a newer phone. The BEST rom I had before was SlimKat Official for Skyrocket, but it's a bit outdated don't you think? It's very nice to see a new interface; really brings a freshness and new appreciation for my old hardware. Thank you.
Also, I am kind of curious about how to view currently opened apps. I used to hold the home button to do this so I could cycle through and kill them if needed.
-Edit- August 26, 2015 2:18 P.M. CST I really love how smooth this rom is at times, but other times it gets laggy and crashes apps after a couple moments for no reason. I did use a custom PIT file to re-partition my i727 so may be other variables as well. Has anyone else had apps crash on them?
no audio through headphone jack
i have done a clean flash and install of the new build of slimlp (nospamdan) having issues with audio coming from headphone jack when jack is removed all sound disappears music wise

LineageOS how to get out of development settings?

Learning LineageOS on my S6, I tried to tap few times on the build number to go in development settings.
I had a look, but as I am afraid to break the config, I want to go in normal usage. I tried to reboot but I am still in this mode.
How to go back in standard user mode?
BTW, what is this mode "development settings"? I didn't see what differences.
Another easy question: Where/how I can see the exact built number of LineageOS to compare with monthly update?
Sorry for the newbie questions... but I want to learn.
Thanks for you help.

Android is new for me, I need to learn a lot of new concepts and tools.
Question:
When I got to setting > About phone > Build number and I tap few time on it I got the message:
"No need, you have already enabled development settings".
Is ti the same that "Developer Options"?
If yes, where in LineageOS I can see the "Developer Options" windows/features?
lol tapping 5 times on build number gives you developer options yes, and it depends on your rom whether you can reverse that or not. for example, on HavocOS (android 10 version) the Titlebar of that menu has an on-off switch in it which disables the menu again.
The process of unlocking the developer options only adds the menu option to your settings, it doesn't alter any of the settings when you tap build 5 times so if LineageOS doesn't have that on-off switch it really isn't a problem, just stay out of the developer options menu if you are afraid you'll mess your phone up by messing in there
edit: i just thought of this, it's quite drastic to do this just to hide the menu again, but I think that if you would dirty flash a rom it'll hide the menu again without losing your apps and stuff. (a dirty flash is a flash without wiping anything beforehand, simply done by booting into TWRP and directly installing the zip eventually followed by magisk if you are rooted and want to stay rooted)
