cm10 cursor weirdness - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Hello all, I am running the latest CyanogenMod 10 nightly and I've noticed that with all autocorrect features off, sometimes when typing numbers, the cursor will jump back a space and it will continue typing in the wrong place. Maybe this is a Firefox related thing because if I recall correctly that is the only place I've run into it, and I just tried duplicating the issue in this app to no avail. The problem also occurred in cm10 stable. Does anyone know what could cause this or how to fix it?
Thanks

Did this occur from a clean flash or dirty? Which CM10 version are you running? I'll be able to give more advice with more details.

Clean flash I believe, I flashed the latest pre-rooted stock rom with odin, as I couldn't get heimdall to work properly with the guide in the CyanogenMod wiki, then flashed cwm, then wiped cache, dalvik, formatted /system, and flashed the cm 10.0.0 stable. That is the version I first noticed it in. After updating to the nightlies (as of yesterday's) I still noticed it. Thanks for your reply.

are you on the beta firefox? maybe thats causing problems....

Yeah, can that actually affect the keyboard though? Sorry I'm an Android noob.

hmm, it does look like it's a Firefox thing, I just tested typing the same thing into the default browser that caused the issue in Firefox. This was the not beta version, so it must not be only the beta.

I'm not having any issues with ICS. You should only be getting that issue with JellyBean ROMS.

YES!!! I've been saying this for awhile now lol. Don't know how to get rid of it. I've tried to flash with both trwp and cwm6 to no avail. Sad about it :'( my usual go to roms are cm9 and tdjs dark side v8. No more cm9 now.

See the funny thing is I dont have that issue with jellybean roms anymore... And this did NOT happen to me on previous cm 9 builds. This only started happening ever since I started flashing jellybean builds

I know you guys are looking for ways to eliminate flickering on cm9 but the cm10 flickering issue has many different solutions. I am quite sure they can be attempted on cm9 as well. First off though I think you guys should list what you have done to remedy the situation so people just don't inform you of what you already tried.

That's the thing.. its an issue with cm9 itself. I've tried disabling gpu rendering, flashing that useless gpu mod, fully wiping with both trwp and cwm6 touch.. not sure what else I can do.

Interesting... I just flashed cm9 9-30 nightly last night and i don't experience this screen flickering, or at least i'm not noticing it if it's happening.
I'm using sk8's cwm6.0.1.4 and I just followed the instructions on TC's webpage. And I just came from erick's cm10 9-28 nightly. Don't know if this'll help, but that's what I did and I don't see any screen flickering. What's the best way to reproduce this issue? I can try and report back if I see it or not.

Go into your settings, pull your notifications down half way then swipe them back up. The screen should flicker black.

Yup, I'm also seeing a small flicker as well. I couldn't get it reproduced every time, but if I played around with the notification pull down about half way and then swiped them back up, the screen does flicker black.
Is it only from settings that you see this? I tried from my home screen, and I didn't see any flicker.
EDIT: If I go only 1/3 of 1/4 of the way with the pull down in Settings, I can reproduce the flicker every time I believe.

It happens in all apps except the homescreen. For me, it does not matter if you pull it 1/3 or 1/4 or 1/2 or all the way down... the chance of it flickering when you drag it back up is about 20%
edit: I have the 9/30/12 nightly build installed. The flickering is not an issue for me and I use this ROM as my daily driver.
Same here. it appears randomly for me. i see no trend. also at times my data stays on E. but overall i love it.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
I'm going to flash the 9/30 nightly with trwp and see what happen. I'm going to try to flash without installing gapps to see if that has any effect.

Try adjusting the build.prop entry below:
debug.mdpcomp.maxlayer=3
change it to ->
debug.mdpcomp.maxlayer=1
....this might or might not fix the flickering issue.

Went from CM10 to 10.1 camera won't work at all

okay so I was running CM10 flawlessly, no kernels or anything straight CM10 and the camera alongside everything else were all working. flashed 10.1 because it was the next nightly. Being that 4.2 is not stable for the T999 yet, the camera didn't work. after running into too many bugs I went back to CM10 and the camera still didn't work. ODIN flashed the stock 4.0 software, camera still failed...
I never dropped the phone or anything like that so hardware is a bit farfetched, any ideas?
did you bother to wipe at all during any of this? 10.1 is 4.2 by the way. did you make a nandroid of your cm10 (with no issues at all)... flash recovery wipe everything besides your sdcards and restore your nandroid.
Yes, I did. I know what 4.2 is dude, you're missing my point.

Calm down. Sounds like a hardware issue. Might have just been a fluke that it happened during flashing 10.1
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
If mt3g missed your point, then I also missed it. You said you updraded to 10.1 from 10.0. Then the camera didn't work, so you reverted to 10.0. Never said if you wiped anything, or if you tried to restore the nandroid (I think) you are saying you have. Assuming you attempted to restore a nandroid that should have worked, the next step is to see if the problem still occurs with a fresh install of CM10. If yes, Odin to stock. If problem still occurs, get replacement.
Ok.

[Q] Did something to my phone... One of the buttons aren't working

I just updated my phone with the MIUI, I think the problem might be the gapps folder I installed, but suffice it to say that the rectangular home button on the bottom of my phone isn't working. It could have also occurred when I formatted my phone. The phone itself and the software is working fine, it's just that one button on the bottom. Tried reverting to an earlier version of MIUI but still the same issue. Is there a means to fixing this?
Is it only MIUI or does it happen on other ROMs?

It just started doing this on MIUI. It wasn't doing this on any earlier version of MIUI, it only started after I upgraded, then when I reverted back it was still doing it.
What I'm saying is, try another ROM before asking so that we can tell you if it is MIUI or your phone...

I have the same issues that you... since install the v10 and my S3 is also slow .. I like the version v10 .. but i had to return to v9.1
Haven't tried any version other than 10, but will give it a shot. Now that I think about it my s3 is kinda slow. Thanks for the idea!

Have you read thru the rom thread? If its a rom issue others surely will have reported it.
Otherwise it may have more to do with the flashing method you may have used than with the rom itself.

Just love how ignorant supposed techies point blame instead or correcting the issue. Dont be ignorant.
I wasnt aware of an existing post on this or I wouldnt have asked for help.
I did ask for help and not complaints.
Other than that this is by far not my first time loading roms, I think after the 20th or 30th time I would say I know what im doing. So again save your ignorance for yourself.

Md5 check the download . Try again with a full wipe? I. I'm v10 and have no issues. Usually a clean install will resolve most problems. Good luck.

Only a few problems here!
I've been using Wicked since ICS days with very few problems. Had an issue with Bluetooth that was resolved by wiping and reflashing the ROM back on ICS.
Since switching to Jelly Bean, about the only issue I've had is S Beam and/or Wi-Fi Direct connection/file sharing. In the two cases I've had, a dirty flash has fixed the problem.
Other than that, the ROM has been great for me!
Good Luck!

LMT Stopped working
I have been using Wicked Rom v_9.1 for about three months with NO problems. All of a sudden LMT service stopped working. The pops up. Unfortunately LMT has stopped working. So I see that V10 is out so I Flasj V10 the proper way thinking that would take care of the problem. NOPE same thing happened. Any ideals?

How in GOD'S name do I do that? I was under the impression that when I flashed a new rom that would have cleared out everything.
Its an option during flash. Or boot recovery and factory reset.

Are you restoring data or any backups?
Have you searched in or asked in the rom thread to see if its a common or known issue?
I think someone else had a similar problem. (Isnt lmt related to some app called pie?) If so uninstall and reinstall the app.
Otherwise, try clearing data for lmt and force stop. Then reboot and see if it still acts up.

I'm personally glad you started this thread. Because of my low post count, I can't post in that forum.
I've only been using this rom for a couple days and I love it. The only problem I've had was that I can't seem to get the Awsome Beats to do anything. Changing the settings doesn't seem to make any noticeable difference in sound quality. I know it's not a big deal but I think it would be a cool thing to have since I use my phone to listen to music almost as much as I use it to communicate.
I'll admit that I didn't read through the 1000+ pages but I did do a search of the thread and didn't come up with anything.
Oh, I'm using the stock Samsung music player, Songbird and Pandora to listen to music.
Stock kernal as well.

[Q] Phone locks up when installing apps

So I'm having this problem for a while now. Sometimes my phone locks up when I'm trying to install a new app. The only thing I can do when it happens is to hard reset the device. It seems to be happening mostly on relatively large applications (~30mb and up).
Initially I thought that maybe my sd-card is dying so I tried to unmount it, but it happened again on the second app that I tried to install.
Any ideas on what may cause this?
Give more details like what rom and kernel you're using.
I'm on CM 10.1, default kernel.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium
Which cm10.1 rom? And what date is the rom build?
I'm on official nightlies. Currently 3/20, but it also happened on the latest monthly.
Since no one reported this kind problem, I don't think it's a bug.
