Since the OP from the Faulty thread isnt around and theres already too many issues lost in the forums i thought on gathering all the issues/fixes in one spot to help people out in a quicker way.
I will be listing all the issues/annoyances and their respective fixes in this thread but i need your help since i cant find all of them and your feedback about the fixes.
Once someone reports a new issue, if needed/requested, i will start a poll to see how many people are experiencing the issue to help out detecting a faulty device from a real general issue.
Issues:
Lag time in getting to home screen after pressing home button.
"Uncheck "launch S voice by double pressing the home key" under settings in S voice" by littlegiant WAITING CONFIRMATION

WiFi slow or with constant connection drops/errors.

Annoyances:
When adding any app as a accessibility service (e.g. Lightflow), the Touchwiz Launcher will start telling you where you are right now, e.g. "Homescreen 3 of 5", "Opening folder".
Waking up the phone isn't always instant.
No USB storage mode, only MTP or PTP. You can't use the phone while transferring files.
Boot animations use Samsung's proprietary QMG format --> no custom boot animations for now
While you're in a call, sometimes you can't use your mobile data connection. Wifi works though.
Attaching headset/earphones shows various audio applications that can be launched in the notification area. These apps cannot be customized.
The accuweather widget has a maximum refresh time of one hour. Setting it to anything less than that is not possible. Also, it doesn't always update the current location.
- Couldnt drop more than two apps (one after the other) in to an app draw folders

The "Talking Touchwiz" issue afflicts me too now that i have installed Lightflow...
BUT... it's not that easy to prove - as it seems to depend on what you are doing at the time, such as Double tapping the home key to start S-Voice etc - it might kick in and 'talk to you', sometimes it doesn't. It did it many times for me at first, but its not done it this past week.
To the OP...
Just to add to your comments...
"Remove Lightflow" as an Accesibility service would remove it's use altogehter. Removing "Talkback" as an Accessibility Service did nothing to stop the problem for me. Even though you have this marked as a "FIXED" item.
They don't equate to my expectations of what a Fix is alas *lol*
And in similar terms, the wi-fi issues "fix"... Firstly, as we do not know what affect this will have on battery drain (I mean I'm sure Power Saver Mode is there for very good reason), then again, I certainly don't see this as a FIX either... A workaround perhaps, but if so, one with all it's own issues at that.
Notwithstanding, that today, when I ran a Speedtest and again found my connection to be dire, I looked in the Service Menu, and I too, as posted elsewhere, had found that Power Saver Mode was back ON again, and it had not remembered my settings.
So if I have to do this regularly, then its far easier for me just to turn wi-fi off, then back on, which seems to fix my issues every time anyway, but without any Battery Drain, or fiddling with secret (and dangerous) Service Menu settings instead.
Please don't think me having a go at yourself...
It's just that you seem too quick to take something as being a "Fix", just to perhaps seem like you have all the answers...
Please believe us - our ire is not with you, it is with Samsung, to whom we hope a fix will soon be coming for these, and the many other little minor issues in the current firmware, like forgetting all settings, brightness, etc.
So don't worry (yet). Just list any issues, and we'll berate Samsung for a proper fix, not yourself in any way.

Yeah i understand, should be more of a workaround than a fix indeed, need to redefine maybe the words used, all the info in this thread was taken from threads around the general forum but since i dont have my SGS3 im kinda going blind here, that why i need everyones help to make this thread decent
Thanks for your support
I'm grateful that I don't have the Wifi issue but I don't take comfort in the fact that every new handset that's been announced to fanfare has had issues that have made me think along the lines of, "seriously, who tested this?"
That said, in my day job, people call in to see me with one or another issue and their device has a common problem that we'll talk about in XDA, but the customer don't see it as a problem, just as something that they deal with day in, day out. Or it goes into the box of, "doesn't work, don't really care." I love being a perfectionist.
Open the dialer,
You'll see

the first three tabs work like tabs, but click on the 4th contacts tab, the screen reloads and now the tabs shuffle to:

Now last three tabs work like tabs, but click on the 1st to go back to the first state.

This, good sir, made me laugh!
In regards to the TalkBack issue, I tried the following scenarios:
No accessibility services: Silence
Adding Tasker: Phone tells me where I am in certain situations
Removing Tasker: Silence
Adding Lighflow: Phone tells me where I am in certain situations
Removing Lightflow: Silence
Adding Tasker and Lightflow: Phone tells me where I am in certain situations
Removing Tasker: Phone tells me where I am in certain situations
Readding Tasker and removing Lightflow: Phone tells me where I am in certain situations
Removing both: Silence
Adding TalkBack: Phone tells me where I am at all times
Removing TalkBack: Silence
Could this be a common issue of Lightflow and Tasker? Can anyone test some other app that needs to be added as an accessibility service?
The dev of Missed It! (which needs to be added as an accessibility service) has suggested making sure that both Talkback and Install Web Scripts are set to off in the Accessibility settings. I'm *still* waiting for my blue S3 so can't confirm whether this works or not with other apps but someone might want to try
Sent from my CM9 TouchPad
TalkBack is set to off, web scripts are not allowed. The problem is still there.

Simply put, I would love to see a developer to take advantage of this real-estate and put this area to use.

Its a great way to quickly press and toggle on/off your radios, BUT what i think would be FANTASTIC is that a long press or a hold on that same icon (so you're not wasting any more space)... Will launch the settings for that button.
Example, long press on:
1. Wi-Fi - takes you to WiFi setting
2. Bluetooth - takes you to Bluetooth settings
3. GPS - Maybe have this launch an application,
(i prefer GPS-Status, but I could see others wanting Google Maps)
4. Silent/Vibration - (see notes below)
or have it take you to settings/Sound/volume popup
or /setting/sound/vibrate popup
5. 4G - (see notes below)
or have it take you to Wireless/network settings
I understand cyanogenmod has a feature that allows you to select which widgets to display in this area. Great feature, because who really uses the silent button up top, that's what the volume rocker is for... And im sure 60-80% of us are not in a 4g area so that's a waste too.
I see no need for the Silent/Vibration in the pull down, we have a hardware rocker that does the same thing. So i say replace it with Brightness Auto on/off (with a long press going to settings/display)
Optional (i would like some feedback)
For most of us not is a 4g I would like 1 of three things
1. I love the tiny flashlight app/widget so it would be nice to pull down and turn flash light on/off https://market.android.com/details?id=com.devuni.flashlight (long press opening app?!?)
2. Open Phone, (log press open contacts)
3. DroCap (so you can take a screen shot.)
4. IDK what do you think????
So 1st off from a development point is this possible, The log press to other action and changing default action of slient/4G?!?!
And what do you thing about this request?!?!?
Thanks to the great delevorpers here and mkasick for his Ringer volume fix!!
That is a huge request lol. Not impossible but some major framework editing required. I don't have the time right this second but I'll look at trying to get one button to work just to see how hard it is
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
Even 3g toggl in place of 4g toggle would be a huge help to me =D i know it's not so hard to press the power key, but (half?) of the US doesn't have 4g lol
Lol, I guess it is a big request, I'm not a developer so I wasn't thinking what would be involved.
I was just throughing it out there.
...But I was pretty sure that if it could be done, it would be incorporated into most of the Roms here.

Not exactly we can attempt to rewrite ours but we have tw framework-res.apk controlling our status bar buttons and it don't like to be altered at all and I wonder if any of this had to be changed before the os was built by the compiler but most likely not on that

Just because you don't have 4G doesn't mean no one else does.

As someone who travels quite a bit, I can tell you that the vast majority of the country does not have 4g. Population-wise, 4g is near a lot of people (major cities/large population), but geographically it is almost non-existant.
As for the idea in this thread, if someone could get this to work it would open up a whole mess of new possibilities. I'd imagine if you could make the toggles open up the settings, you could also make them do a whole slew of other things, and maybe even replace the dock entirely for those of us who prefer things minimalistic. Not holding out any hope, but it would be really really cool.

Swipepad does pretty much what you are asking, only in a slightly different way. It's even a little better, I think, because the swipepad will appear even at times when you can't get the drop-down thing because you are inside an app. Anyway, it's a free app in the market that I use for a lot of the stuff you are wanting (basically it gives you 12 quick launch buttons that you can set to whatever you want and which appear when you swipe on an area of your choosing) --- try it out and see if it meets your needs:
https://market.android.com/details?id=mobi.conduction.swipepad.android
Thanks for the cool app. Neat idea! but most of the time i find it hard to enter the swipe menu...
Thanks,

I love this app! Key to it is say you on default top right. Don't slide down the edge and to the right it opens notifications. Put your finger right where the screen color ends and the black border starts anywhere that red line showes when you set it up. It vibrates then slide to the left

From erishasnobattery:
We will keep all bugs/fixes updated in the first few posts here.
Please, post a bug once. If you have a potential fix, PM me. I will test it and get it added to this post.
Let's not have a repeat of last time. If you can't use the search function, don't use our ROMs.
Also, if it's not posted in one of our posts, it's not an approved mod. We take absolutely zero responsibility for anything that happens.
Known Issues:
There numerous graphical bugs, such as misalignment and colors being off. Please, unless it is affecting the usability of the phone, don't post them. (We are squashing these as time goes)
Pin screen and password unlock screen are sized incorrectly
Some fonts/images may appear a little fuzzy on the home screens. At this point, with the tools available, there isn't much we can do with it.
No Verizon VM notfications. Base ROM issue. It won't be fixed without a new leak.
Force close in music app. (trouble reproducing)
[*]Camcorder only supports up to 14mbps recording. Anything higher will cause it to close. To be included with RC4.
No .wma Playback.
G-sensor Calibration Issue - Kernel Related. (Talk to your friendly kernel devs)
[Watch app not working quite right yet.
Bad strings in the Calendar Widget. (trouble reproducing)
Twitter causing FC on phone calls.
Speed dial 2 now selectable, but only dials 2....
Car dock needs a bit more love.
If your screen is staying off, slow to turn back on, general weirdness when coming off a sleep state, try increasing your minimum clock speed. I have the best balance or performance/battery at 368/368 for screen off and 368/1.2 normal.
The Manage applications page is freaking out. See Below.
Patches:
6 Bar signal - Official BAMF mod. THANKS rbox!!!
Disable wake on Volume Courtesy of bp328i.
Looking for Netflix, My Verizon, or VVM? Arcanexvi put this little thread together to keep them all current and working for everyone.
Free scrolling app drawer, courtesy of ihtfp
Help! My Manage Applications page is freaking out!
The base leak, for whatever reason, has a serious problem with populating the applications list.
At the bottom of the screen, there is a 2 tone gray and green bar. There is a small animation that appears once everything is loaded above the gray portion.
DO NOT, and I repeat DO NOT, modify any apps in any way shape or form if this has not appeared. Do not force stop, uninstall, clear data, or clear cache when they are flickering. This means the package has not been fully loaded and linked. You might think you are clearing data on Angry birds when in fact it is Accounts and settings.
I got a little overzealous on one last night and ended up having to do a complete wipe and reinstall.
Need help setting up Google Voice? Thank RootandBoot for these instructions!

On your phone dial *71 and your Google number (that is call forward no answer) put the 1 infront of the area code.
That's it.
When someone leaves a VM it will show on your notification bar.

Nothing special, i have crope picture from routine pic n made background black.
It gives 3d effect as well saves battery too, more the brighter wallpaper, more battery draining.

Question about voice speed dial:
Is it possible to replace voice talk with this app. I mean when I press my call button on the Bluetooth headset note activates voice talk. Also double click of the home button activates voice talk.
Since my language is Serbian I have little to no use of voice talk. On the other hands ability to voice tag calls or applications is much better.

Are you sure this is no virus/spyware/adware?
For some reason all Youtube downloaders seem to be viruses, even on the PC.
I don't know why the virusmakers all seem to do youtube downloaders but they do. The website that you linked says it isn't a virus. To me when a site claims their software isn't a virus, it usually IS. The site looks kind of dodgy too.
Is there a way to detect a virus in android apps without installing a bloated antivirus on the phone? Does something exist where you can check android files for viruses on the PC?
Been using this for ages, since Galaxy S time. No issues mate. Have it on my Galaxy S, 8.9 and Note.

Hey guys...I haven't seen a thread started for this yet and since I've been toying around with my M8 all day I figured I'd share 2 bugs I seem to have found and if you guys have found any feel free to contribute. Any edits I make will be for resolutions and updates to the bugs found. So far what I've found:
- I seem to have difficulty deleting files off of the external SD card. I have my pictures saving by default to it and I noticed if I delete one it disappears then pops back up. This happens through ES File Explorer.
--Issue lies with Kit Kat version not the phone itself
- When I manually set my brightness and then open up the camera it auto increases the brightness (which I don't think is a bug) the bug however, when you exit the camera app the brightness remains the same and doesn't revert back to your manual setting.
--If you exit the camera and then shut the screen, when you turn the screen on again you have your manually set brightness back.
- the buttons like to reappear over the top in immersive mode, they appear on the side if rotation is disabled
- the task switcher has options at the top, task manager and close all that get covered by the notification bar at the top
- blinkfeed looks odd with the 4 menu buttons still appearing
- Possible static on other end when using speakerphone
- Cannot take pictures of front and back of a check with the Bank of America app check deposit feature
- Snapchat filters will cause the screen to flicker.
- When authorising Sense's access to Facebook the Facebook app will take you to your newsfeed, meaning you cant authroise until you get to the homescreen. It's somewhat confusing, if you already have a HTC phone you won't see this issue.
Let me know if you find anything else on the Verizon model please as this is the one I will be getting in a few weeks. If others comment please specify which carrier model to maybe help. Thanks

I can write to the ext sd card as when I take pictures it saves to it just fine. The problem is trying to copy/cut/paste to/from it and delete off of it.

It *is* possible to modify the contents of the internal and removable sdcard when connected to the PC. As discussed in several threads elsewhere, KitKat 4.4.2 has modified the manner in which apps are permitted to write to the sdcard. I'm wracking my brains because of a number of issues I'e encountered (and I have a 128g card!)
Also in the bug list:
Can't get Amazon Appstore to download apps (download always fails).
- the buttons like to reappear over the top in immersive mode, they appear on the side if rotation is disabled
- the task switcher has options at the top, task manager and close all that get covered by the notification bar at the top
- blinkfeed looks odd with the 4 menu buttons still appearing

A restart of the phone fixes this.
I had the same issue. I believe its due to the spotify video which starts on the firs time launch of the app.
Guys, I have updated the OP as of the latest bugs found by Electronic Punk. When posting bugs we find please specify which version you have international, Verizon, etc. When we find a resolution to the bug I will post underneath the bug in the OP in bold red.
1.54.401.5 although now running that same version on Android Revolution HD 2.2
want to clarify the last one as it looks the same on sense 5.5 but the blinkfeed did not continue underneath the buttons (ie phone, camera - that row)
In Sense6 it does and looks bad.
In addition, on ~Blinkfeed if you swipe left
the options menu covers about 2/3rd of the screen and stops about half way over the task switcher, looks really odd.
Dlna is not working properly for me . I keep trying to connect to my LG smart tv but it fails every time . Miracast works fine but not great for watching videos . My HTC one max and note 3 work well so it's not the tv .

Anyone else having problems with the loudspeaker while on the phone to someone? I've tried using the loud speaker while on the phone to 2 different people and both have said the moment I put them on loud speaker they hear loads of static in the background
OP updated...Noticed the Bank of America app taking pictures of a check for check deposit does not work.
Snapchat filters will cause the screen to flicker.

Hi folks, I recently got the update notification and updated my D6603 to Lollipop. I do like Lollipop's new features, but there are a few things I miss from the previous version:
Slide from left to right in the middle to unlock. I used to be able to hold the phone with one hand and slide with my thumb, but now it's from bottom to top. The motion is harder to do, but it's something to get used to.
Remove all from recent apps menu. I cannot find a button to remove all apps in one press. It's not there anymore.
Wishful features/changes:
THE CAMERA! I don't see any improvements on the camera. Still smudgy photos and pink issue with white background, etc. Going through the picture thread is still a disappoint. My hopes for this fix with the update has been lost.
Remove Small apps completely from Recent apps menu. I have never use this and it takes up space on the bottom of the screen, especially when flipping through Recent apps cards. Got this removed, thanks to lu99ke!
That's all I can think of for now. Got yours? Please share!

Hey Hanime
Your wish has been granted!! There is a way to remove small apps from the recent screen - no root required! You just need to be able to run and ADB command ...
I can't post the link but google "remove small apps z3" and you will see a post in the android central forums..
Look for comments on this post as with lollipop, you need to use "hide" instead of block.
See attached pic of it on my phone... Looks HEAPS better.
Cheers

Lu99ke, thank you for this! I will give this a whirl when I get home tonight. Awesome!
NP!
Sound Mode in Quick Settings. I can't mute calls / messages anymore while listening to music as it only affects the media volume.. I would have to go the long way over settings. Is there any work around? Preferably not a widget.
LED notification light in Silent mode
If you switch your phone to silent mode the LED notification light you will not be on If you got a notification.. This not Sony fault
very annoying
Notification bar icons. Not only are they pretty ugly designs but they're also varying in sizes and don't seem to follow any kind of consistent theme.

You still get the notification light if you set it to vibrate. I rarely use silent as I think vibrate is well, silent enough.

Speaking of vibration, how do I get rid of the vibration on keypress of the home row buttons on the bottom (including back and recent apps buttons)?

Thank you very much!
I noticed the physical camera button opens the camera app with a chime sound now. I turned it off via the camera settings (Sound = Off), but it still chimes. The touch version opens the camera silently. Anybody know how to turn the chime off?
Also, on the lock screen, it says "No Service" even when I have service. And it continues to say so until a good restart or when I download the "Internet Settings" again. Normally, it should show my carrier, T-Mobile. Anyone having this issue?
