Hi,
I recently installed cm10 stable on my sprint galaxy s3, and its great but there is an annoying issue for me with the screen. Oftentimes when I go to wake the phone up with either the power or the home button, the screen stays off, but the phone is on and I know this, because I can still feel haptic feedback when I click on the screen which is off. Is anyone else having this problem, I would hate to back to touchwiz. Thanks.
On a side note, on my previous phone, evo 4g, I had the same problem with cm7, so could it be a problem with cyanogenmod and snapdragon chipsets. IDK
I have the same issue. Copy and paste this in the actual CM10 forum! You will have a better response! I really hope this gets worked out.

I have the same issue. However, it doesn't bother me too much. I just hold the power button for a second or so longer and the screen comes on.
I just posted it on cm forums. Here's the link http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/61705-cm10-stable-screen-on-issue/

Try and post what you originally said on the xda CM10 thread. I think that'd your best bet.

NOT Stable!!!!
Still isnt that stable. I was updating the nightlies a month or so ago. Same issues here dialer freezes during calls, bluetooth connectivity issues, cant recieve picture mail and I think thats all. I am now looking for a non touchwiz replacement ROM. IF you have any other ideas please let me know.
I agree, its not very stable. I'm trying to find a stock rom not based on cm, but no luck. I'm stuck on touchwiz, which sucks. I doubt they will ever fix it, had the problem on cm9 also and cm7 on my evo. I know its most likely something to do with the snapdragon cpu.

I just came from the Nokia n900 and having so many things working on the phone is a refreshing change! Ive lurked around and read a lot! As a result ive succesfully rooted my phone and have even tried out a few custom roms! However I have a question about a ROM im currently using but I cant post in the dev forum yet so I figured ill try here. Im currently using the digital warfare ROM and ive noticed that my powersave feature does not seem to work correctly. It will kick in regardless of the battery percentage I set. So ive just left it off for now. can someone help?

First I want to give you huge props for actually reading and doing all that on your own instead of posting a ton of useless threads with questions that can easily be found! But to answer your question, the My Account app has its own power save feature, try going into that app and adjusting it from there or just disabling it all together. Hope this helps.

Just disable the power saver in the my account app and use the power saver settings built into the phone, that's what I do.

Welcome to the family.
This phone is pretty beast, and it will only get better.
Thanks! I can tell! making the transition from hw Kb to all touch is kinda weird but this.phone is so capable and powerful its awesome!
Welcome dude and yea i would just disable this phone is great with battery life anyways. One suggestion tho i would freeze tmobile my account all together in titanium backup or uninstall it tgats if u have it installed it actually messes with wifi. When your on wifi it will turn on 4g signal whenever data is requested which isnt good cuz u think ur using wifi the whole time. Ever since ive disabled tgat app i have not had a problem with wifi or 4g service. I actually think its a way for tmobile to snoop on our data. I made a thread about this and other people have confirmed this app to be the culprit. I actually was gonna take my phone back because i couldnt get wifi to stay connected so thats when i started investigating and found this
Hmm I like to keep track of my data usage but if thats the case away it goes!

It's not unusual for a phone to get warm when running cpu/gpu intensive processes like games. It only becomes a problem when it gets incredibly hot and forces the phone to reboot or the battery gets too hot to touch.

Thanks. now i'm having a new problem. My phone will just randomly shut off and I cant turn it back on until I pull the battery. It has happened twice so far
is your phone hot when this happens? try darksides kernel. haven't had an issue.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App
not hot. i just flashed his new rom/kernel combo with a clean wipe and as i was messing around with milocker it did it again. just shut off on me. only way to bring it back is to pull the battery. very strange.
You using a new ROM? I know you said new ROM/kernel combo but that could imply same ROM new,kernel. If youre on the same ROM, check the thread to see if its an issue with it I guess. Could always try a new one and see if that fixes it. Let us know if you find out anything.

I use 3G Watchdog. It's available in the market. Has a nice little widget as well.
My co worked who used to have an ET4G and now has a Galaxy Nexus stumbled upon this MOD. Knowing how must of us running any jb ROM have low headphones/aux issues I thought I could post this to try and help.
There is a tiny problem though.... I flashed this last night. I successfully booted my phone but once everything loaded my phone froze up and just powered cycled. I tryied flashing it with different gapps combinations and different jb ROMs. So with that said... do any of you devs or anyone that want to try to modify this MOD for our phones?? Maybe it will bring a solution this this bug?
Thanks in advance to anyone willing to try this and provide some input

Might be a kernel thing? Who knows.
Glad to know I wasn't the only one with the audio problem but from my short testing in my car it seemed to only be music related, I'm using double twist. When I got a text message the ringtone was alot louder than the music itself and the volume setting on that was only around half as loud. Things use to be the other way around on ICS. Like someone else posted hopefully there can be a fix soon because I'm loving JB.
I tried this mod on my Nexus 7 and I didnt notice a difference
Not sure why it didnt increase volume for you. Worked just fine for me.

Sent from my E4GT by using THE FORCE
From what I can tell from my testing on the E4GT, your headphone and bluetooth volumes are tied to the speaker media volume originally. I haven't seen it in any other builds of CM10, but it seems fairly common in the E4gT's roms.
Where are the nightly builds posted? I don't see it on thier official site

This is not true ... Pandora and/or any other music related app still has the problem, even Youtube, however, everything else is topnoth in CM10. We all hope it gets fixed quickly. Im running CM10 9/24 nightly.

If its fixed in CM10 it will be fixed in all jb ROMs since they run basically the same base. Jb has made some great progress thanks to all the devs. Hopefully they work out this bug. I wanna jam! Lol

Hello,
I have a big request to ask the developer for the Nightly Official CM10 builds.
I have been running them ever since i got my S3 with only a few known issues. I love love love these builds and greatly appreciate everything that they are doing for us.
I have one small favor to ask them to include in the next nightly or near future build.
Ever since build 9/18, i have been getting a hot reboot. I have narrowed it down to the app, smart status bar. This app has worked perfectly on every other ROM or nightly of CM10. So i KNOW its not the app.
I have a logcat here
and i personally feel its this change that is causing this.. i may be wrong but i dont know since nobody is giving me support or even caring.
On that note, i have mentioned this in the CyanogenMod 10 nightly thread. And all i got was a bunch of people *****ing me out claiming that im the only one who uses this app and experiences this issue. And that the problem lies in the app. But when nightlys are released arent they suppose to fix issues and not cause new ones? and if it were the app causing the problem then the app would have caused a hot reboot on my stock rom, on my galaxy s 2 cm10 nightly, on my HD2 cm9 nightly. And on EVERY other ROM out there. Well it doesnt nor has it caused issues up until the 19th build.
I apologize for any attitude or disgust in my dictation but i was very offended by the rudeness and ignorance of the remarks i was receiving. So i apologize for any hostility in my dictation.
Thank you for your time in reading my thread. I hope something gets done to resolve this issue.
Why not post in the cm10 thread?

Lol i did -.- read my post.
I would say send the logcat to the app developer and they should fix compatibility. Link them to the github change as well. Supporting all possible users should be a priority.
Cyanogenmod adds changes that make the most benefit for over all performance. If this broke their code it would be resolved but this breaks the apps code so the dev needs to correct it.
I have sent info like this to devs before and been obliged and had the issue fixed.

Yes i know. But it WAS working before the 9/18 update.. thats why i dont think its an app issue. Now Camera ICS has never worked on CM10 for my S3, it doesnt cause a hot reboot it just freezes then force closes. Thats an app related issue. But smart status bar causes a hot reboot and if you look at the logcat you can notice something is not right with the overlay. Everything runs perfectly on 9/15 build. Smart status bar works and desnt cause a hot reboot. so how could it be the app when it was working before? I just dont understand that part.

The next logical step would be to see if it works on stock 4.1 on a Galaxy Nexus. That was you can see if it was something added that is different than stock Jellybean.

Yeah that might be your best bet. I was thinking since CM10 is attempting to put stock 4.1 on our phones, you can isolate it to see if it is in fact something extra that CM added or if it is something that would be an issue on stock 4.1 as well.

For the reboots, are you on the jb bootloader? As for Bluetooth, try turning your bt device on, then turning on bt fir the phone
It's called nightly for a reason. They're unstable builds that gradually progress. If you can't handle the bugs, stick with the stable build.

i get that these are unstable..... how come then was it working just fine at one point then it all went to **** after updating with one of the rc's and/or nightlys? if they are supposed to get progressively better then how do you explain this??

Nobody said that they get progressively better. They progress as they add new features or tweaks that tend to break other things. Fixing one problem may cause another to show up. If every build was to improve the rom, it would be stable in a month, but that's not how it works.
The bluetooth issue has been beat to death in the i747 cyanogenmod development thread. All you can do is wait till they fix the issue. Just flash back to a build with the bt working and follow the development thread. I'm sorry if this comes out in the wrong way.

Alternate method to enter recovery?
Does anyone know of a way to enter recovery other than with using the power button? Is there a way to do it through ODIN?
I installed ICS Stock ROM, but I need to be able to enter recovery to do a factory reset.
My power button is broken. I can get into download mode (pressing volume up, volume down, and then inserting usb cable).
If the phone is off, I can also get the phone to power on (by inserting power cord, feeling vibrate, and then quickly removing power cord).
But I can't get into recovery. If anyone has any creative methods, that'd be awesome!
I'm saying goodbye, as well.
After installing ROM after ROM, I never found any that "just worked". Anything 4.4-based had all kinds of busted stuff (1080p video, Netflix, etc). 4.3 had camera/gallery issues. Even with 4.1 and 4.2 (including 4.1 stock), they still seem to suffer from "vbus_present" issues forcing me to reboot any time I unplug the device.
The device froze up on me and corrupted too many photos. I tried asking the community what the "best" ROM was, and mods closed the thread.
I wanted the T989 as a tool. Not something I had to babysit.
Maybe I'll get a Moto G or whatever Motorola's new phone is.

The way I see it....ROMs made of 4.2.2 and higher may have their odd glitches... But that just life bringing android versions to phones who's official support ended. Its either accept the odd problem, or stick with last official update. In this case touch wiz 4.1.2. Which is pretty much perfect.
Flashing custom ROMs comes with the odd glitch, no matter the phone. That's just how it is.
Stock is for those that can't accept the odd issue.
Good luck with your next phone!! The moto g is nice, for its price for sure!!!

A point I should have made.....the devs work hard and for free and for fun....and share with us lucky members.
They do their best with what they have to work with....especially on android versions not even created for our device.
They deserve our respect and thanks. If what's available disappoints anyone....they should keep it to themselves or choose their words wisely.
Without the devs.... We'd have nothing at all. Especially when Google stops giving us official updates.
Be grateful.
Still loving my Herc. Carbon rom with SaberMod Uber kernel and I have no complaints...

Current T989 kitkat bugs piss me off, lol. They seem to be putting finishing touches on it, then all of a sudden they make a bigger change that opens a whole new can of worms.
My power button got stuck several months ago, so I actually opened the phone up and removed the entire thing. To turn my phone on, I plug it in with a usb chord and hold volume up/down until I enter download mode, then I cancel it.
I use an app called Quick Boot to reboot, enter recovery and so on.
Also, I kind of agree with you guys. Sure, the latest 4.4 ROMs are a little buggy, but I've found 4.3 roms to be perfect, in terms of stability.
Got my T989 last november from a friend, second android device I had but the first to get serious with. Also tried to check for newer devices like that LG G2 but the chance for me to get a new one is far less than you can do.

I lucked out. I complained enough to tmobile about the screen blobs and lines from the amoled displays that they kept sending me as refurbs, wrote the CEO an email, then they called and agreed to send me a GS3 LTE, and let me keep my s2, so I immediately sold both phones and got the g2 new.
