[Q] Help with RemICS ROM installation

It's my first time to actually take the plunge and install a custom ROM and I seem to have encountered a problem. I followed the instructions to install RemICS ROM and initially everything went well. I turn on the device and everything seems to work except for the preinstalled MX Player and Apollo. That won't be a problem since maybe I could download replacements. The problem comes with locking the screen. I press on the lock button and the screen turns off. However, pressing the lock or home button does not turn on the screen, and the device proceeds to just heat up and use battery. I've tried returning to the stock ROMs and there seems to be no problem. Just with RemICS. Note though that I am not using 5.7.2 RemICS since it cant be downloaded for bandwidth reasons, I'm on 5.7.1. Thank you!

i think 5.7 or 5.6 or 5.2 the most stable till now ,
and All 5.x.x is not for everyday use it's just to testing new Mod's ,
i now use 5.2 And every think is ok and good ...
i will build new rom with next alpha6 with HW fixing ....
this bug you talk about is from new Tweaks i think it's too much so i remove the big one

Thanks for your reply. I'm downloading the 5.7 ROM now. Will the same TouchWiz and GApps files I downloaded with the 5.7.1 ROM work here? Also, is my understanding correct that I first install the RemICS zip (199MB), then install the Fix-RemICS-A4-A5 zip (25MB), then the FixSU zip in that order?

[SOLVED] Galaxy S3 Camera Not working (OLD problems no fix)

hello, i love my galaxy s3 and even more because i took the leap and rotted and I am running on roms. My favorite rom is cyanogenmod but I have never gotten the camera to work on it with anything greater than cm10.0. I am currently running AOKP which allows the camera to work which is awesome too but i would love to go back to CM. I have searched for hours but never found a solution that worked. I tried flashing a file that some around this forum and other forums have said fixed the CM camera issue but that did not help. If anyone know of a fix so i could use CM10.1 or CM 10.2 I would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Have you tried a clean install of CM 10.2? I haven't had any issues with my camera running any custom rom.
Does it work at all, or are you just missing some feature?

I have not tried a clean install. I will try that when I get a chance. The camera sometime opens and I can zoom in and out a few seconds but then it freezes and the phone restarted. Also, other times the camera open to a black screen and freezes and the phone restarts. It really sucks This is the only issue I am having with CM and why I switched to another rom.

Doing a clean install fixed the problem. Thank you so much for your help. I would like to mark this thread as SOLVED but i do not know how. Hopefully an admin can do this.

[Rom] [alpha] [Unofficial] Omni 5.0/Cyanogenmod 5.0.2

Alpha Omnirom 5.0 (Trying to get calls to work properly on CM first before doing more omni builds))
baseband is still unknown. So no phone calls or data.
Alpha Cyanogenmod 5.02 with working baseband
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4k5OpXTXcS9NF8zN1dreFAtOUk/view?usp=sharing
Build 5.0.1:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4k5OpXTXcS9NVp0Sm9YMFdEUUE/view?usp=sharing
Calls should now work without lockups. Data seems flakey? Let me know your finding
(This is now working due to rolling back to old RIL blobs (pre 4.3). This means that the connection process takes longer on initial start-up and switching to air-plane mode as well. )
Leave wifi on to avoid reboots.
Also this doesnt have the camera bug fix yet that Derteufel made.

Nice.. Never been a fan of omni.. I'm more a cm or aosp person

REVIEW
Thank you very much for this build for the i9305
I have been waiting for the first lollipop build
I installed this rom and this is a written review after one hour of usage
1 the phone boots without any problem
2 lollipop gapps are working
3 Sometimes wifi works and sometimes no
4 Bluetooth works
5 some random reboots and sometimes it stuck so I need to remove the battery to get it working again
6 no FCs at all
7 seems fast
8 when I open an app installe from play store the phone stucks and I remove the battery
Thanks again and I wish u improve this rom in the coming days

Good job mate but I think it'll be better to edit your thread to make something more attractive, Flash Guide for noobs , links to gapps, alternative dl links , what works, what doesn't , credits , shiet like this would be better for everyone.
The main problem of your rom seems to be the kernel (random reboots , wifi issues , random freezes)
Anyways , good luck and thank you for the rom

Thanks for the feedback.
This isnt meant for n00bs to flash yet. This is an alpha.
In Alphas you expect to get problems! This is only meant for testing and for trying out 5.0 on your device...

can we flash this normally?

CM 5.0.1 build added to OP. Please read notes about what isnt working before flashing!

So the latest build is the most stable one (CM12)? Can I help you in any way, testing, logs or something?

Well at this point in time no. I've just got to try to figure out whats going wrong still and then people can test to see if it works for them and if there is any long term problems with it. Until then its just make a change, compile and flash and I'll let people know if I get anywhere.

for me it is stuck on bootloop... first flashed wih wipe full/dalvik/cache then flashed gapps - bootloop. second dirty flashed again, booted, android is upgrading, optimizing apps, then rebooted and again bootloop... how to get past this ?

Tested. Boots okay. Data baseband ok. Incoming calls ok. Outgoing calls impossible. Tested with 2g

As I said this doesnt have the camera firmware patch added so some people might get bootloops... I'll add this in the next day or two from Derteufel

So, we are at the final step - outgoing calls, huh?

There also appeared some new commits on nameless gerit, just informing

Outgoing calls can be made now. But it seems to lockup when hanging up. New link in OP for 'new' build.

Calls should now work!
This is using old ril blobs so initial connection from boot will take longer. Also I think data is stuffed a bit. Seems to take a long time to get connected. Seems to work for me after that though. Post your finding please!
Hopefully Derteufel can figure out the problem with the newer blobs but till then this is working if anyone is interested.

Edit: only got one question. Can wifi be turned off. Will disabling it cause bootloops?

Yes, it does work indees! In and out! Really great, the whole system is smooth.

Great work. Will be swapping back to the i9305 from the note 2.. All we need now is for someone to work on the stock cm kernel to make it smoother.

Great work on calls! Please let us know when you include the camera firmware fix so I can download again and flash, this is the only thing causing me bootloops and preventing me for further testing. Thanks

Stock kernel? We are only using that to get data working... I'm sure Derteufel will switch to his own kernel as soon as he irons out the problems with phone calls locking up etc. (Or he switches to old RIL blobs for now)
Then there will be the challenge of getting R4P0 drivers to work properly.
After that who knows? Fix opensource compass?
Then Nameless may have other upgrades to implement for HWC.

[Q] What is the most stable ROM?

What is the most stable ROM for C2104 ?
I just want something that works :crying:
Not even the stock 4.2.2 works well. I get bootloops and wifi issues on every ROM I try.

First - Do not cry because of phone .
Second - Re-Flash newest stock (I recommend you to do that by Flashtool)
Third - BL Unlock , Root , Install Philz
4th - Make compresses backup of stock (Nandroid settings like compression available only in philz)
5th - Then feel free to flash CM 12 and ThunderZap .

I've done all that, except for the Philz Touch. I'm running CWM with CM 12.
Is there ThunderZap available for CM 12 beta 3 already?
Everything still unstable, though. It's beta as it says in the name.
I'm looking for something, solid. Rock solid. Everything working ,no problems, no crashes.

Yes . 4.10
Well , don't use CM 12 , cuz it's unstable in web browsing and video playing .

No.. I usually get crashes doing simple stuff.
Wifi stops working very often.
Many functions are still being developed.
Even when choosing ringtones I've noticed that some names do not belong to the respective ringtone.
I understand that it's beta and I'm not complaining. It's just not what I want for now.
I've used beta ROMs many times. I've even developed some stuff for PSP years ago. But now I don't have the time for crashes and bug reports.
Even the stock ROMs give me often crashes.

Stock
i test ALL roms. but finally i undestand the stock rom is better for us. All KK roms have BIG BUG

I was using version 15.3.A.1.17. Customized from India, from Brazil and I've also tried 15.3.A.1.14 from Vivo_BR.
They all gave me sudden reboots.
Do you know how to fix that or which ROM works?

I've been using SlimKat for almost 3 months and I have no major bugs at all. Wifi and GPS work fine, I have no random freezes or reboots, no low volume bug...
There are only two problems that I can remember now: unable to move apps to SD card and error trying to search for networks manually.

Front facing camera issue

Hey,
So I got my Oneplus One few days ago. It was running Cyanogenmod 11s front facing camera was working fine by then. Then i figured to switch to resurection remix did that, and when i tried to access the front facing camera the program just froze and crashed. Then I went for AK Kernel, still crashing, went for Paranoid Android now with default kernel still nothing, tried multiple camera programs, nothing seemed to solve this problem.
So does anyone know what's up ? Why it doesnt work ?
Any help is highly apreciated.

What ?
I mean i do it everytime i reinstall/install new rom.

I even installed Oxygen OS Same problem, nothing fixed i did it as cleanely as posible Formated every possible section i could. Anyone to help ?

bump

Did you updated also the firmware? Or just ROM?

Nah just the rom, dont know what you mean by firmware
I mean i installed the cm12.1 newest nightly first, then went for Resurection Remix and so on

And you left the firmware on cm11s? How did you manage to install 12.1? Did you read the installation instructions, cause every Rom I tried states update your firmware. You'll find a link to the latest one somewhere near the ROM download.

**** maybe i dont understand something what do you mean by firmware, can you explain more in depth ? Because i did everything that paranoid android tutorial shows and see nothing changed, I tried instaling a rom it came with it was cm 11s 44r still same stuff nothing changed.

Do you mean i should flash CM 12S first, then go for other roms ?
Edit : So newest 12.1 Nightlies dont have newest firmware itself ?
