Hey guys, posting to get some help with some forced reboots.
I migrated from d2att CM 10.1.3 to SlimBean 4.3 stable build1-876 with no issues, running rock solid and looks and feels great.
I've tried "updating" to the SlimBean 4.3 stable build2, CarbonRom nightlies, and the new DanKang's stable slim + optimizations with success...but I get random reboots on all of them. I'm wondering if it has something to do with going back to the CM kernel with the other roms? The DanKang kernel uses LeanKernel, I also tried independently flashing LeanKernel on top of these other builds to no success.
Currently here's what we're looking at:
SGH-I747
Baseband: i747UCDMG2
3.2.60 slimbuild kernel from Sept 14 that shipped with build.1official-876
Have tried dirty flashes and clean flashes and open to suggestions. Currently have a Dandroid of Slim that I've been going back to between trying these different roms out.
I may just have to be happy with build 1 but I would like the bluetooth fixes and the SlimCenter keeps telling me to update lol, I'm trying!
Which bootloader and modem are you running? Have you tried a odin back to stock, reroot and install custom recovery to try again? This usually resolves these kinds of issues
in fact I'm about to it myself
I believe I'm on the "new" boot_CWM_I747UCDMG2 version and
modem_CWM_I747UCDMG2 flashed from dstruct2k's bootloader and modem threads.
I have been having the same issue on SlimBean 4.3 build 2. I have TWRP 2.6.3 and the newest official modem and bootloader. I don't have any reboot issues on build 1 either. I can try to grab a bug report next time if that will help.

Hello I hope you are doing well. I have tried to flash Liquidsmooth and Cyanogenmod nightly 3/16 and both of them will freeze during a phone call and or after a phone call. I tried the sonic TW rom and have had no issues. Can someone please let me know what the issues might be and how I can fix them. Thank you so much I need a very stable ROM as I use my phone for work.
Were those 4.2.2 roms? Those arent quite stable yet, theyre still working on them
Flash a 4.1.2 / MB1 / MA6 ROM if you're looking for as much stability as possible

I believe for Liquidsmooth that error was caused by the most recent release (titled STABLE). I know that RC2 didn't have the same issues with freezing on phone calls. The RC2 is available on their goo.im page.
But, like CNexus said, 4.2.x Roms will inherently be a less stable than TW-based Roms. That's just the way it is when you're developing something that's not been officially released for your device. In the 4.2.x Roms that I tried, it was stable enough for my (non-business) needs.
Seems like I've been hearing this issue on various threads since the new CM kernel was released. CM is still in nightlies so it is not 100% stable. But it could be a lot of different things.

I appreciate all the help is there any good roms that are not TW that are stable MA6? If you could point me in the right direction. I tried searching MA6 and got kernels?

Well, I don't know exactly what you mean by non-TW-based MA6 Roms. As far as I know, MA6 Roms are inherently based off of touchwizTW (since it's a build of Samsung's Sprint Rom). I assume you mean Roms based off Android version 4.1.2, which is the version that came with MA6.
I know freeza has gone and removed a lot of TW features from his Galaxy S fre3 Rom. It's currently on MB1, which is only a minor upgrade from MA6.
But for the most part, the MB1- and MA6-based Roms are pretty solid in terms of stability. I'd recommend going to the Rom Wiki created by Hamspiced. I have no idea when it was last updated (maybe a week or two ago), but it has a lot of links to MB1 and MA6 Roms (as well as a lot of AOSP, etc. Roms)
Just wondering if anyone is still running this? I seen this is the last version before the 10.1 started. I want to run the CM10 because 10.1 still has some bugs.
Just some quick questions
1. Does MMS work?
2. Are there any major bugs?
Again this is for the 12/16 CM10 4.1.2 nightly.

im still running it and its perfect.. everything works and has great battery life.
im using the kt747 kernel with it and oc to 1.8
The latest nightly builds of CM have a FEW bugs...but still quite stable/usable. I run the 12/16 build every once in awhile, but the new nightly's are so damn smooth.
Also, give LiquidSmooth RC2 a try. Virtually bug free. The Stable release of LiquidSmooth has a few bugs, but again, still very stable.
If your going for a virtually BUG FREE AOSP Rom, I would advise LiquidSmooth RC2 with the latest BMS Kernel. Tweak it to OnDemand/Row : 126 min, 1512max, and you will be quite pleased.
Generally the CM versions up to the latest official release are very stable
As in, the latest official release was MB1 (4.1.2) so you can expect CM 4.1.2 to be very stable
Its when you go past the official release versions that you start encountering more bugs, like in CM 10.1 (4.2.1 and 4.2.2)
I just tried out Liquidsmooth. It's not a bad rom, just don't like the fact it looks like a theme.
Yeah I know CM uses a launcher as well, but overall it looks like a stock JB rom. Flashed cm10 nightly 12/16. Runs great with no issues or freezing. Once we get the official 4.2.2 I'll update to cm10.1.

If anyone uses cm10 (4.1.2) stable, I have the handoff update still if you want it.

Hey guys,
I've noticed recently that when i flash any kernel that is compatible with my rom, it results in black screen on reboot. But its as if the phone is active in the sense that i can hear the phone make the unlock sound when i pretend to unlock it. so its all there but the screen is black.
Rom i am on currently: Carbon 4.2.2 stable release
Kernels Ive tried: BMS, KT both of which are 3.4 version needed for the rom i use.
I've cleared cache, fixed permissions, factory reset and started from scratch with installling the rom and then flashing the kernel with the same issue.
Ended up doing a restore of nandroid for phone to work. But still cant flash any kernels that I know for sure are compatible with any rom. This doesnt seem to be a rom or kernel specific issue because i've tried different combinations. Like for example i tried the aokp tasker with KT with same symptoms pr for example liquid smooth with BMS etc.
Any suggestions?
Thank you in advance.
What's the release date of your rom? Try using a kernel release of that date or earlier.

the latest version of carbon rom 1.61 is what is I use regularly. I've tried older versions of this and other roms but the issue persists.

the release date of that rom is 3/29. i would try a 3.4 kernel with a release date of 3/29 or earlier to see if this corrects the issue.

You need to use an older version of a kernel. Either 4/15 for BMS or 4/11 for KT747. The most recent builds have display commits that are required on the ROM for the display to work.

Thanks for the response guys. I've tried flashing the older version of KT kernel as suggested. Thanks for the link man. Unfortunately, the same issue again: On boot, it goes all black. The difference though is that this time while the screen is black, there is no sound response by tapping on the screen. I tried increasing the volume to see if there was any difference but still nothing.
I guess i'll be fine. The only reason i tried flashing a different kernel was so i could enable fast charge.
Thanks for the help guys.
Cheers
flash tasks 4/23 build. its stable, bug free (for me) and has the fast charge feature in addition to amazinf battery life. cheers
Hello! I've searched quite a bit but have been unable to find anything to address the frustration I'm having. Recently I have been having an issue where my phone will restart itself at random intervals. The best way to recreate the issue is to use a streaming media app like Spotify/YouTube/Google Play Music/etc but it does happen at other times as well. This will occur on all ROMs I've tried including AOKP, CM10.1, Carbon, etc.
I believe I have narrowed the issue down to the 3.4 kernel as all the ROMs I've flashed in recent weeks have been using 3.4. If I use an older ROM (such as the stable release of CM10 with the 3.0 kernel) I do not have the issue.
It gets even stranger...I have found that LeanKernel is the only 3.4 kernel to work and has been stable for about 3 days on my device. So apparently I am stuck with reflashing LeanKernel after each ROM update if I want to run the latest and greatest.
My question is two-fold....
Is this a known issue for the AT&T GS3?
Any suggestions to fix this problem?
For the record, I have reverted to the stock, unrooted ROM and do not have the issues there.
Thanks in advance for any guidance!
Issues and bugs with 3.4 kernels are known. This is not specific to you.
I am running tasks 4/23 with the packaged kernel. No issues. Full wipe is key

Thanks for the feedback. I may look at Task's ROM in the future.
I tried to use the cyanogenmod installer on my AT&T GS3 and it said it worked but when i booted, i only got CWM asking if i wanted to root because i was unrooted from the reset that takes place. no cyanogenmod then i looked for a build to flash but there are no official cm11 builds. only 10.2 officials and 11 nightlies. does anyone have cm11 official or a fix for the installer? thanks!
I suggest installing cm via custom recovery.

okay, but how should I use the cm11 nightly or would cm12 nightlies be just as stable? I would like to use an official if possible but if I can't, cm12 should be better right?
If you want stable stick with cm11. Lollipop is still a work in progress on the S3.

Okay, should I just use the latest cm11 nightly? There's no stable release for my phone
I flashed the 20150208 nightly earlier this week and it seemed perfectly fine. I had no issues with it, but I only used it for a few hours. SlimKat Stable 9 is my daily driver. I just needed cm on my phone briefly.

Can I use the d2lte releases on my phone? I have the at&t s3 and they have a separate section for it but the last nightlies are from early 2014
You can flash d2lte on the AT&T i747. Most AOSP ROMs unified some of the S3 builds sometime last year. Anything d2lte or d2att should be safe.
Not sure which bootloader is on your phone but some ROMs will only work with the latest modem.
