Important Thread (and forum) rules. Please read this section first!

This developer forum thread’s focus is on...development! As such please refrain from posting these kinds of things:

1) “_____ is broken”. Unless you include a logcat or a very easy way to repeat the issue, you’re just wasting the developer’s time by making them read that something on your phone isn’t working. They are busy volunteers, they aren’t going to spend the weekend trying to figure out the circumstances needed to recreate your problem.

2) “_____ is broken, I’m using _____ kernel”. If you aren’t on the stock kernel, stock theme, stock gapps, then there is no reason to post in this thread. Post in the kernel thread, or the theme thread, or the app thread where you downloaded your (broken) modified files from.

For less “developer-focused” questions, please refer to the Q&A thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2405429

Read this post from our very helpful moderator if you still have any questions. I'll keep both OPs updated. I try to install every nightly and read all of the 10.2 threads. If anything is missing please PM me.

Thank you!




10.2 RC1 has been released.
Please make sure you are on the MF1 modem

Rooting, flashing, installing roms, following any instructions below, will void your phone's warranty and there is a chance (however small) that you'll screw up and permanently break your phone. Anything you do to your phone in violation of the warranty, insurance, or anything else is at your own risk!



CyanogenMod 10.2 RC1 Release November 22, 2013

It’s that time again! The bug reports on the 10.2 M1 have been greatly helpful, so a well earned ‘Thank You!’ to all of you that made your way over to our JIRA BugTracker and submitted your issues, ideas and logs!

The entire team has been plugging away at both 10.2 and 11.0 code branches – porting fixes and features back and forth to try and bring you the best CM 10.2 experience! Since the M1 we’ve also added a handful of new maintainers and devices to our merry roster.

Today we ship the initial wave of 10.2 RC1 builds. For those new to our build sequencing, these builds are release candidates. These allow for some final polish and fixes to take place before we release 10.2 for general usage.

To get ahead of the normal round of questions:

You can safely flash this on top of CM 10.2 M1 (or earlier 10.2 nightly) without wiping data
You can safely flash this on top of CM 10.1 (any version) without wiping data IF you also manually update your third party add-on zips (kernels, mods, packs, etc). If you skip this, don’t be surprised by ‘missing’ applications. Also, the phone app changed names, don’t forget to replace your shortcut for it!
For all other previous releases, you should be able to update without losing your data provided you follow the third party item from #2.
Always make a backup, regardless of 1, 2 or 3
A new added quirk to our releases, are those joining us from the new ‘CyanogenMod Installer‘ installation process. You exceptional folks exist on a slightly different release track, so without manual intervention, you won’t see these builds on your update mechanism. Fret not! Your release stream only receives ‘verified’ SNAPSHOT builds, which just means you’ll see a different set of builds as we approach 10.2′s general release. Of course, you can always update manually to the RC1, but we recommend against it. If you do go forward with it, be sure to make a backup (you can do it in recovery) as swapping between release streams currently may cause some issues with your user data.

-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ KNOWN / REPORTED ISSUES -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

On 10.2 RC1

1) To fix root: Developer Options / Root Access. Change to "Apps and ADB". Reboot.

2) Bluetooth may hang when you try to turn it off.

Many problems are fixed by simply wiping cache/dalvik and re-flashing the same rom file over itself.

Please PM repeatable issues from the release to me. Post a logcat in the developer thread or a JIRA ticket if you expect it to get fixed.


-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ SPECIAL NOTES -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

1. To enable Developer Options: Menu > Settings > About Phone. Tap build number 7 times to unlock Developer Options
2. Yes you can dirty flash over CM10.1. Make sure you also flash the new gapps.
3. Yes you can dirty flash back and forth between the unofficial CM10.2's and the official nightlies. Wipe cache/dalvik.
4. Please make sure you are on the MF1 modem

-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ INSTALLATION NOTES -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

  • CM can be flashed using CWM or TWRP. Only use the latest TWRP or CWM!
  • When you install CM10.2 coming from a pre-4.2 ROM your data will be moved to a new folder /0/ (this is to support multi-users).
  • Make sure you have the latest CWM or TWRP installed so that your recovery isn't confused by the new location of your backups. Official TWRP d2vzw or Latest CWM (scroll down to Samsung Galaxy S3 (Verizon))
  • GAPPS is not included in any CM download. You must flash a gapps zip if coming from another rom or when starting with a clean install. You do not need to flash gapps when 'dirty flashing' over a previous CM install. Download the 8/20/13 gapps from one of the mirrors above.
  • Always make a backup before you try a dirty flash or upgrade to CM10.2.


-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ HOW TO INSTALL OVER CM10.1 -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

  • Consider backing up your IMEI if you haven't already (link)
  • Make sure you’re on the latest CWM or Official TWRP d2vzw
  • Download a CM10.2 rom (nightly or unofficial) to your sd card
  • Download the 8/20/13 gapps from one of the mirrors above to your phone storage
  • Reboot into recovery
  • Make a backup
  • Wipe cache and dalvik (if you want)
  • Install the CM10.2 zip
  • Install gapps
  • Reboot


-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ HOW TO INSTALL FROM ANY ROM OTHER THAN CM -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

  • Consider backing up your IMEI if you haven't already (link)
  • Make sure you’re on the latest CWM or Official TWRP d2vzw
  • This process will wipe your data, apps, sms, mms, etc. However your internal SD card will not be wiped. Use titanium or my backup pro to backup anything you want to keep prior to proceeding.
  • Download a CM10.2 rom (nightly or unofficial) to your sd card
  • Download the 8/20/13 gapps from one of the mirrors above to your phone storage
  • Reboot into recovery
  • Make a backup
  • Wipe cache and dalvik (if you want)
  • Wipe Data/Factory Reset/System
  • Install the CM10.2 zip
  • Install gapps
  • Reboot
  • Reinstall Titanium Backup/Mybackup Pro/SMS Backup+ and restore the stuff you have to have, but its better to reinstall things from the market if possible (keep in mind your backups will be located in /storage/emulated/legacy/) (if you want)

There's no such thing as a stupid question, just stupid people

1: How do I fix Titanium Backup?
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=44612424#post44612424

2: How do I fix root?
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=44614991#post44614991

3: Is camcorder record volume fixed?
Yes! It is fixed as on 8/19/13 nightly

4: Is focal working?
No, and if you open it it will wake-lock your phone causing massive battery drain.

5: Why do all my apps have persistent notifications?
Stock 4.3 change, working as intended - http://www.androidauthority.com/android-4-3-persistent-notification-background-apps-250448/

6: Why does the keyboard force close at the setup screen?
You didn't flash the new gapps.

7: How is your new baby doing?
Baby and wife are doing great. Born 8/10, 7lbs 0oz, 20", and healthy as a horse.

8: Why is my location messed up in .... app?
If you enable Privacy Guard for an app that uses location, it will not be able to determine your actual location (that's one of the points of privacy guard).

9: My phone is stuck at the CM mascot after rebooting?
Odds are you're using TWRP. Switch to CWM and the issue will go away. I have no idea what's actually wrong, only that the issue doesn't occur with CWM.

10: Why does my gmail wipe after each new nightly?
It's a problem with the 8/13 gapps. Mastamoon fixed it and provided us with a new 8/20 gapps (available above)

I installed the newest build and everything is working fine so far except Focal which is still only partially working.

Edit: Bluetooth still doesn't always turn off and can require multiple "turn off" presses to get it to turn off properly.

The very last line in the OP:

"Reinstall Titanium Backup/Mybackup Pro/SMS Backup+ and restore the stuff you have to have, but its better to reinstall things from the market if possible (keep in mind your backups will be located in sdcard/0/) (if you want)"

Is incorrect. backups will be in /storage/emulated/legacy/

Hit menu > Preferences > Backup folder location

click detect, search whole device, two folders will be found. Make sure you choose the location with legacy or your backups will not restore

I'll test and let you know. I just flashed it.

EDIT: That's a negative. I repeatedly tapped the capture button and it froze, then couldn't connect to camera. Still isn't working it seems.







It is focal working on official? Or is the same than mastas

The 10.2 nighly is working flawless for me so far.

I flashed over 10.1.2 stable and used 20130813 GAPPS

Focal is working just fine too. EDIT: no it isn't.


FYI a new GAPPS was released yesterday. 20130813.

Not really a CM issue, but anyone else having issues getting SuperSU to work? Won't update the binary for me.

Root was an issue on the unofficials as well. There is an easy process to get it back but I cant remember. If someone can post the short how-to I'll link it in the OP.

Well it looks like SuperSU still functions properly and assigns su access properly (to terminal, greenify, etc), it just won't update the binary.

Everything else works fine from what I can tell.

4.3 is silky smooth on this build. Focal is working on my end as well.

Try changing root access to adb and apps in developer options.

ddggttff3, did you have to do anything beyond that permission change? I've made that change, tried re-flashing supersu in recovery, still no luck.

not a huge deal, but I would like to get root back.

If I remember correctly, flashing supersu replaces the su binary. For me, I installed the rom, enabled dev settings, set it to apps and adb, then rebooted, and root apps started working.

    I found a problem with the script that does the backing up of gapps on flashing. It was set to backup Gmail2.apk instead of Gmail.apk. The APK in the GAPPS package is Gmail.apk so it looks like it just wasnt gettting picked up correctly. So I fixed the script, wiped system/caches, flashed my rom plus gapps.. Gmail is still there, which is how it worked before.. but then I flashed just the ROM and rebooted and Gmail was still there.

    And the reason why this was hitting some of you and not others.... Because the 7/29 gapps has the correct Gmail.apk listed in the script and thats probably the last GAPPS they flashed. So somebody borked it when they created the 8/13 package.

    BooYa :D

    9/8 nightly

    Looks like the no-boot issue was fixed with the 9/8 build. I was able to boot with this nightly.

    ?

    Anyone know when cm is planning on supporting otg cables for storage? It was supposed to happen with 10.1 but still no go. Something about a lack of power to the otg cable. Unless I'm missing something...

    USB OTG works fine for me. 10.1.3 RC2
