no one is annoyed by the home button not waking up phone? - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

on cm 10

I honestly stopped using it to wake the phone eventually after so many months on CM. Now that I am back to a Touchwiz (Frosty) I do find myself using the home button to wake the phone.
So I guess yes?

how's frosty?

Not enough to make a whole thread for it. I just double tap the button and it hardly ever messes up.

I really like It so far. Battery life is incredible at least 50 percent better than CM. Lots of toggles and themes and while CM is no doubt cleaner and more minimalistic I like a few touch wiz features so it's working out well for me.

Agreed, i actually completely disable mine from waking the device regardless what ROM im running. Its a stupid 'feature' why have a power button if you aint gonna use it? lol

Just flash any recent nightly. My home button wakes my phone. Just pressed once
I'm running the nightly from Sunday

I have a T-Mobile--$30--d30 case which aside from being over priced as makes the power button as well as the volume rocker a pain to use. To go into download mode I usually remove the case. All I can say is that when this phone drops I don't panic d30 case is amazing it just bounces like a ball lol leaving the phone unaffected. It also weakens WiFi but the protection I can not argue with...

That annoys me too, especially us folks who are used to iPhone and transitioning to Galaxy s3. Some of the roms i flash on here support home button wake others don't, i just cannot be without home button wake because this phone is the next hugest thing next to Note 2 and since both are big phones, reaching for the power button to wake up the phone each time is a major annoyance for me. It DRAINS MY ENERGY LOL.

[Q] CM10 Call volume really loud

I cant post in the CM10 thread in android dev soz...
I flashed the CM10 M1 version from 9/11 and the call volume is freaking loud. Like its speakerphone loud and i have speakerphone off. I turned all the volume dials to low mid call but its still the same.
Is there a fix for this?
Known issue... Try playing some music and toggling the volume all the way down, then back up again. It reset the volume for mine. Keep in mind you will have to do this at least once every time you flash CM.

AOKP Jelly Bean Build 5 - What does everyone think of it?

Just put build 5 on my S2, and I gotta say, its pretty amazing. Its a lot smoother, and has some more options. But mostly, there is a noticeable difference of smoothness and look. I was crashing once or twice a day with build 4 as well. So, I am happy. What are your thoughts? Any other Jelly Bean ROMs that are better?

Goomanager. I myself am in love with this release. Everything has been smooth as butter. Implemented the usual build.prop tweaks for graphical glitches. CPU settings are all stock ondemand/cfq, went for 20-21 hours yesterday with 3-3.5 hours screen on time and that was my first cycle!! Of course no RR or SoDs either. Can't wait to see what whitehawk has in store for this update!

I noticed it in Goo yesterday, haven't flashed it yet though I think I'm still going to wait for the updated SBean.
This is the first aokp rom that I have tried and I am very happy with it. Everything is very smooth and fast. The only problem that I have with it is the lock screen. When I hit the power button the screen comes on really bright for about a second then goes back to the normal brightness level that I have it at. I usually have have it on the lowest setting. It doesn't always happen but most of the time it does. Anyone know how to fix this?

What are you using for a radio? Sounds like something is sucking the life out of your battery or you're in an area with crap reception and your radio is draining your battery trying to get a good signal. I myself am using uvle1 for a radio. I've had nothing but bad experiences using uvlh1.

Build 5 is working great for me. No issues so far and been running it for over a day. Using it with custom Kernel and OC. I must admit that its very smooth. My battery seems very good, wasting about -6%/hr, with WIFI on the whole time and messing with the phone constantly.

App-Virtual button bar

Great app for me on the note 2 its an app where u can set on ur screen a little virtual button to act as the home button. Im not a fan of the physical home button and so paranoid of wearing the physical home button out,so i use this app and works great.Has an trial and paid version.

What could it be?

My phone phone has shut down twice today for not apparent reason.
Once I had it sitting on my desk and the second time it was in my pocket.
I saw a video that it might be the battery connectors but in my case I was not able to replicate it.
So what else could it be?

As stated by another user, occasional reboots are "normal" on 4.2.1 but twice a day is a bit ridiculous.
If I may suggest a substitute ROM in which I don't really experience any reboots, it is pretty much stock with tweaks, no AOKP, CM10, PA, eye candy, just a fast stable ROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1821673
Yeah I really wouldn't mind a soft reboot or even a reboot once in a while but I have had 3 shut-offs in the last 2 days it wasn't even a reboot, which makes me wonder if it's hardware rather than software.
Thanks for the suggestion but at this point I really don't want to flash a ROM, I will most likely end up coming back to stock at some point if I do.

Double check that your kernel settings are stock and you haven't done any tweaks that could cause kernel panic
