[Q&A] [ROM] [LOLLIPOP] Unofficial CyanogenMod 12 for Galaxy Ace 3 LTE (GT-S7275)

[MrAdubal]

I have build from 10 October, I should make a clean install? If i installed kernel, CM would work faster?

Well, you should read some stuff, before flashing custom roms and so on. You try simply installing the zip without any wipes, but you might face some issues. A kernel is an essential part of android and in general of an OS, you can't boot without it. The builds are shipped with stock kernel without any modifications, the custom one has all the good stuff like overclocking

Some questions regarding the custom kernel:
1) Does the OC to 1.7GHz affect the battery?
2) Does the kernel remain untouched after a clean ROM installation? I mean, if I flash the custom kernel, and then do a clean install of CM, I will have to install the kernel again?
3) Since it's a .zip that means, I have to install it via TWRP and not Odin, right?

Also a question about baseband, on the main thread you have quoted this:

NOTE:
If you have problems with calls make sure to have the latest baseband! Thanks @maximianu for the investigation.
Original post

I have some long-standing problems with calls quite often, when I receive a call, I don't
I mean, someone calls me, and nothing appears on my phone, they hear that I have my device shut down or "connection failure".
The problem is easily fixed by enabling and disabling flight mode. Does the baseband update fix this? I maybe catlog the problem the next time I realise I don't receive calls.

1) Of course overclocking affects the battery.
2) After a clean installation you need to flash custom kernel via Twrp, because builds include stock kernel.
I don't have issues with calls, latest AML1 Baseband

Enquiry

Heyy
I have Ace 3 S7275R with S7275RXXUANF1 baseband. I have tried the CM11 and then the CM12 in the beggining of the year but both of them had reboot issues 2-3 times a day (I suppose it happened because of the wifi) . It drove me crazy so I decided to install back the touchwiz software.
I am interested again to install back the CM12.1 because as I see it's ready for daily use, BUT I would like to ask (i don't want to waste days for this) how stable it is, and before I do the upgrade, should I install another baseband to work the CM 12.1 properly? How about the camera software? It was so poor in March with no settings. My dad has Coolpad Porto phone with 5.1 Android and the camera is so good. It has so much setting in the software
I hope it is possible to install the CM12.1 on my phone which has not reboot issues.

Thanks in advance!

It's really difficult to believe that you're on stock everything.

With:

A - No logs
B - Your post history being riddled with modifications
and
C - Your past history of being a complete **** to the maintainer and others in the community

I'm really wondering what it is that makes you think that anyone cares?

on the camera is not avaible the zoom (neither on the googlecam)
i have sometimes reboot when i am conncted on a wifi connection... other times when i am connected on the mobile connectio (2g) too.

Is there the possibility to deactivate the sensors? when i have my mobile in a poket i don't receive the pop-up of a notification.
thanks!

Archive

Hey guys,

I thought I would just post a reminder here for anyone who might want any of the old builds, for whatever reason.

I have, over time, managed to accidentally archive a fairly comprehensive list of files for the Galaxy Ace 3.
You can see the list of files here. I believe that it is every build of CyanogenMod for the Ace 3 to date [Tue Nov 17 14:28:45 NZDT 2015], along with BlissPop, Resurrection Remix, ClockworkMod Recovery, Team Win Recovery Project, ...well, the list is there. Have a look.

In total there's about ~30GB of files there. About ~25GB of that is CyanogenMod 11.0, 12.0, 12.1, and 13.0 files with the remaining ~5GB or so split up between recoveries, the other ROMs I mentioned, a few other assorted files (PIT, Odin), and some factory images for the GT-S7275T TNZ.

If anyone wants any of this for any reason, they should shoot me a message.

Been using a GT-S7275Y that was locked to telstra australia, on vodafone now.
With stock rom everything works out of the box but with lollipop I can't work out how to fix the MMS problem.
I've tried every possible APN but nothing to do, can be the radio?
Suggestions are very apreciated.
Cheers

How did you unlock it from Telstra? Did you pay them or did you unlock by some other method?

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for some informations please (in the last update 2016 08 26)
-Can we zoom in any app camera ?
- Is sometimes the phone reboot itself ? when it is overwhelmed for example
- Is there any force close ?
- Is all Gapps work ?
- Is system crash ?

I'm wondering this, because in previous version it could be happened.
Thank you in advance for your answers
