CM 10 Preview Bugs/Questions - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

I thought that it would be a more effective and easier to find if we were able to post some of our bugs/issues with the CM10 rom here.
Here is the link to the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1778266
I guess I'll start with mine. MMS works only with receiving messages. Sending has not worked as of yet. Also the signal reporting on the phone makes it show a lower signal strength. I know for a fact that I get full bars at my house, but on this rom it says I've got only 2 or 3 bars.

Also Bluetooth audio doesn't seem to work. I have trouble connecting to my jawbone jambox.

when i flashed it i got stuck in bootloader.

[Q] Wifi Signal dissconnecting! WTF Google?

I have read that many people are having 4/3g issues on verizon but i have the GSM version and 3g works perfectly for me. BUT the damn Wifi signal sucks. I posted here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20519741#post20519741
that i had fixed my issues but i was answering too quick. When i am a few meters away from the linksys modem everything seems to work fine (sometimes i get connection lost in speedtest) but when i go upstairs, (modems is downstairs) i get 1 signal bar, if lucky 2. But when i do a speedtest i immediately get connection lost. Wifi disconnects and reconnects after 1 sec. But when i watch netflix movies or download same thing happens. Wifi disconnects and reconnects. This doesn't happen when i am close to modem. But this is seriously google/samsungs' fault. My Sensation and Glaxy SII has FULL signal bars and they NEVER disconnect from wifi. Now my question is... Can this be fixed by flashing a different radio? Or can google update a software fix for this? Or do i i (and many others) have a faulty unit?
PS: So sorry, i meant to post in Question forum.
Bump. I really need some kind of answer because my 14 day is almost over and i have to make a decision to return it or not.
I had crap wifi and signal and flashed xxkk6 or whatever the new one is and it's much better.
However I cannot say for sure if this is your problem. I would just exchange the handset anyway
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20312089&postcount=6
I am going to try the xxkk6 one but do you know if the other one is newer?
Ok i just did fastboot flash radio radio.img and fastboot said OKAY but i am not sure how to check if i actually have the new radio. But still same issues :S
EDIT: Okay now it seems to be stable at 2 bars ONLY but atleast it doesn't disconnect, for now. Will report back if anything happens. Fingers crossed.
Ok i have had some connection lost during this 24 hours+ but it's okay for now.

Wifi not working properly on my device.

Hi
I just got my galaxy nexus 3 weeks ago. Everything went well untill 2 days ago.
Randomly and since yesterday permanently, my wifi isn't working properly.
I haven't changed any settings. Our laptop works great on wifi and this is why I tought there would maybe be a problem with my galaxy nexus device.
Under normal circomstances the "wifi bars" are blue. Now they are gray and internet isn't working.
(2 weeks ago I did a switch from yakjuxw to yakju. Everything worked properly)
I provide you with some screenshots of my device.
(As you can see I'm connected to wifi)
What do you reckon the problem could be?
Thanks
(ps: posted this with the laptop connected to wifi right now)
I'm experiencing some strange issues as well. I haven't nailed anything down, but it seems I'm having data problems (both wi-fi and vzw data) when I'm in a low signal area (my house) around -100dbm. Phone and text seem to work fine, but it's a little strange that the wi-fi would drop out too. During this time my wi-fi and signal meter are gray. If I restart the phone, everything seems to work again. The last restart was 12 hours ago and the signal is still "blue" now, but I know at some point it will "gray out" again. I do not experience this problem at work, and both wi-fi and signal meters are blue.
This is kind of a big deal for me because I rely on my phone for email notifications and I come to find after the fact I have several emails and never received the notifications on my phone.
Looking around the web, it seems others are experiencing various signal issues as well, but no one has any solutions and I'm not even sure if the issues I've seen are related.
Yes very strange indeed. I tried turning my phone off and on again but the wifi signal meter is stil gray.
I remember my brother buying a HTC sensation last week. He had a gray wifi signal meter from the beginning. Luckely he could attach his HTC to the pc and download updates wich fixed the wifi signal problem.
No updates for us yet. I wonder if they will fix this in 4.0.3 and if they even know about this issue...
I'm now at another place with wifi acces and it seems to work Here... maybe it is a compatibility problem with the router? I bet that when I go back to my place the wifi signal meter Will be gray again...
How to make it work properly?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
My wifi goes to sleep every time the phone goes to sleep, despite having it set to always on. Also signal is poor. Where my iPhone 4 has full or 4 out of 5 bars, the GNex only has 1 or 2 bars.
I´m having these problems too... my other devices work fine everywhere in my house, but gnex doesn´t... it gets a very bad signal. I´m on 4.0.1 (OTA update hasn´t arrived to my phone yet... whyyyy!?).

You might have a yakjuxw or other yakju-- built instead of a yakju? I THINK (not sure) that they receive updates slower. I think they go via samsung or other carries.
Anyway I'm now at 4.0.2 and tbh I much more prefer 4.0.1. Since i got to 4.0.2 my phone seems a bit slower.
All of a sudden my gray wifi signal meter turned blue (after 2 days being gray). I can now even connect to ANOTHER network that I was never able to connect too ...
I think this problem is very much related to the phone/phone's software. I didn't change any settings nor apps...

Weird phone reception/signal problem

I have this weird reception problem. Every once in a while, my phone would enter this weird state. It looks normal as I see my phone has reception. However, people would complain that they try calling or texting me and I would receive nothing. During this same state, if I try calling others with my phone, the phone call application would freeze and no outgoing calls can be made. Also if I were to send a text, I would see a "sending" message and I know for sure the text won't be sent. The only fix is to reboot the phone to get proper reception and I would be able to receive incoming signal and make outgoing calls/texts. Is there a fix or explanation for this problem?
This problem existed on my phone for a while, for stock, AOKP (all stables) and CM (10.1 stable). I don't know if its a radio issue as I tried different radios.
I'm having a similar issue where I randomly can't send or receive calls even though it shows that the signal is just fine. A reboot fixes it.
At first I thought that it was the latest update to the ROM (Slim 7.5 weekly) and so I reverted back to 7 Official. It then happened again so I tried out the Carbon ROM...and it happened again so I went back to Slim but changed radios...and it just happened again so I'm trying a different kernel but I'm doubtful as they've had different kernels anyhow.
My guess is that it either has to do with hercules and 4.2.2 or just whatever commonalities which exist between the various non-TouchWiz ROMS. (if it keeps up though I'm going back to Embryo as it's TW-based and never had this problem)
Oh well, wish I could've offered a solution instead of the above but hopefully someone smart will come along and help.:laugh:
Where are you located and are you on T-Mobile? It could be tower work in your areas. I experience similar situations when they did the refarm and again during the LTE upgrades. Either way if you report signal problems they can have the towers checked where you are.

It could be the work to tweak and expand the LTE in Houston. I know on my phone I get sending errors when I don't delete message threads that are huge. I'm talking about 1000+ txt to the same person with pictures etc. It's just more memory that the phone uses up to display all of that information. You could try deleting some old messages, after backing up anything you want to keep, and see if that helps.
I'm OCD about deleting messages but thank you for the tip.
There are two others in my household on my family plan who aren't experiencing the issues but they are both on completely stock ROMs.
if still having connectivity issues try this -Download terminal emulator and type the following command (or copy and paste)
cat /sys/devices/platform/msm_rpm/fw_version
If your output is 2.0.67419 then you don't need to Odin anything...if it isn't...then you need to update your firmware via Odin. 4.1.2 stock
I am in houston and I am experiencing the same problem. I think it could be related to the tower work.

Here is usually what happened to me. I got into an area where there is low or no service, I tried to send a MMS and it would just stuck at Sending. Once I got back into the full bar area, the MMS is still stuck even though I can send text and get online. I have to delete the MMS, reboot and then I can send MMS fine. I don't make calls that often so I don't know if I can make a call when this happened (I am on a $30/mo walmart plan).
So it could be something in 4.2.2 and got hang up when there is no signal and never timeout so you would lose that functionally until you reboot. Who knows? I can't go back to 4.1.2 ROMs tho so I just reboot...
It's definitely nice to hear that it is happening to others as I've been tearing my hair out trying to figure out which component was messing up (ROM, radio, or kernel). I'd much rather it be them (T-Mobile) than me.
I went back to Embryo, which is TW-based and 4.1.2, just to give it one last go in case it is something with 4.2.2 but if it happens again I'll be back on either Slim or Carbon.
@fsured I sent you a PM back but it didn't look like it sent. Either way thank you for your help as well as everyone else.:highfive:

4gLTE comes and goes

Hello I've been having a little issue with my Note 2 ATT. Currently I have this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2704375 but I have tried many others all with the same result... once the roms are flashed it shows 4g lte and at least 4 bars but no calls data nor messages are received or made, when I try to make a call it shows the dialing screen but it just hangs there until it drops. I do have the ATT logo showing on the top left. Checked APN as well and is whats supposed to be. TWRP recovery version 2.8.3.0 and also thru Odin. I have followed all directions. I have been messing around with android since the G1 not an advance user but I know my way around them. I read many post from other users reporting similar issues, many were unanswered but hopefully someone will chime in here.
Update!!!!!!!
For some odd reason now im able to send/receive sms. and also data works perfect. But if I try making a call it will just hangs on the calling screen and will make it loose the data connection having to restart the phone.

Signal Issues

Hi all
So I know that many people have reported the same issue but no one ever seems to come to a conclusion on what is causing the problem...Some say it's the network, some say it's the software etc. Anyway I'm hoping to get to the bottom of this, my issue is as follows:
I see signal issues multiple times a day where I have signal bars and phone calls and texts work but data does not. The only thing which resolves the issue is a full reboot.
I currently run Cloudy G3 2.2 in my imported 32GB G3, I saw the same issues on the stock ROM too though. The signal issues only seem to occur when the signal drops to a low "H" signal...all the time i am in the office I have a full "H" signal and do not see the issue...the issue only occurs when the signal drops quite low...even when it goes back to full again the issue remains until I do a full reboot.
Anyone got any idea what this is all about? I don't want to have to switch phones to get rid of this issue....
Thanks
Just to be sure, did you flash the lollipop baseband when you installed cloudy
Ermmm I thought it came with the baseband?
Just checked and i do indeed have the Lolipop baseband...any other ideas? From searching around it seems a lot of people have this issue!

Id say if it happens on Stock Rom as well its probably a network issue related to the cell towers in your area. So i wouldnt worry too much about it
Can't be that either as it happens in multiple locations which are all around an hour from each other I'm gonna have to sell the phone at this rate and get a one plus one or something

Try Flashing 'Newer' Modem, first.....
If you are using Model D855.....:- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3110376... Thanks to @Step-han
I have the latest 20p version already though, there are no newer versions
Have a case open with Vodafone (they have simply suggested sending the phone in for repair, not an option for me) and have a case with LG too who have only suggested basic things so far (none of which have worked) aiming to get both of them to progress the cases to their engineering teams
