I flashed ML2 firmware. After root when I try to remove all the bloat with es file explorer it says you cannot delete it. What to do now and how to remove bloat. I want to do it manually.
[Galaxy S III General] danierakes:
Use root explorer and mounted to r/w
[Galaxy S III General] darkshaft:
There is something very weird, when I had MK6 4.3 it was snappier and had better gpu performance than 4.1.2 BUT what really pissed me off the even after freezing all the bloat on both 4.3 and 4.1.2, the 4.1.2 had much much better RAM managment and multitasking, any explanation?
[Galaxy S III General] juange:
Newer version of 4.1.2 have efs2 módem. So you can go back to this version of 4.1.2.

In my case I have 4.1.2 which have efs2. I return without a problem.

Man give 4.3 roms developement some time. 4.1.2 roms were not that good too at first but with time they got better. The next 2-3 versions of 4.3 will be better like it's getting better with every release. Hope we'll get a performance boost with KK stock too, but it'll not come until march maybe
[Galaxy S III General] darkshaft:
I need to understand something is ML2 the development of MK6? or it is the same just with PDA and CSC difference?
[Galaxy S III General] Pedrodv666:
Hey, i'm with the last firmware I9300XXUGML2 (Android 4.3) and during calls i get noisy sounds like a "robot", is anyone with the same problem? Thanks
[Galaxy S III General] Sensamic:
Is the wake up lag already fixed?
[Galaxy S III General] whiskerp:
ML2 has a higher patch number than MK6 so presumably has some changes and bug fixes.
[Galaxy S III General] ymy3890:
yes

Nope, mine works perfectly. You come from 4.1.2, do you factory reset after flashing it?:confused:
[Galaxy S III General] danierakes:
The fixes is on the kernel only...so if u on mk6 no need to flash ml2 firmware....just flash the ml2 kernel n u done...
[Galaxy S III General] Pedrodv666:
Yep, i came from 4.1.2 wiped cache, dalvik, system... A clean install with new rom, someobe told me to flash another modem, i will try it :)
[Galaxy S III General] ymy3890:
factory reset?

You done factory reset?
[Galaxy S III General] MethMargera:
upgraded from MK6 to ML2 without wipe...

no prob found currently...just both gallery from MK6 n ML2 is kinda slow..

i guess it because of 4.3..
[Galaxy S III General] ymy3890:
4.3 to 4.3

4.3 to 4.3 no wipe or factory reset is required.
[Galaxy S III General] abhibnl:
Well i guess the lags on 4.3 are due to the heavy touchwiz crap. 1 gb of ram is not sufficient for this heavy skin. However a debloated 4.3 without sammy crap is a decent performer. That's the reason people liks aosp, no crap n lots of ram availability. But i agree that a debloated stock is much greater than an aosp rom.
[Galaxy S III General] Iqbal Ansari:
Yes it is and I'm running it. ML2 debloated. Faster than 4.1. Except galley. :(
[Galaxy S III General] MethMargera:
ikr..!!!

only galley feels like omg..it taking ages to load...(jokes)

just slower than usual one..
[Galaxy S III General] Iqbal Ansari:
Hope the remaining lags and bugs will be fixed in the upcoming builds.
[Galaxy S III General] ymy3890:
My gallery seems ok and didn't have lagging feel..:eek:
[Galaxy S III General] Iqbal Ansari:
I'm running ML2 and it definitely slower than 4.1.

Are you running MK6.
[Galaxy S III General] MethMargera:
its not lagging inside galley..

it just slow on opening..
[Galaxy S III General] Iqbal Ansari:
Mine is lagging inside also. I mean animations and scrolling is not as smooth as 4.1.
[Galaxy S III General] ymy3890:
:laugh: not able to compare....
[Galaxy S III General] whiskerp:
I've been running CM11 (Temasek) for a couple of months and its very good and fast and smooth and based on KitKat 4.2.2 but extras like smartstay and FM radio require separate apps sometimes of beta quality. I've just come back to ML2. It's not too bad. I use the Boeffla kernel (for Sam and CM11 ROMs) and with it you get the kernel controls you need and improved audio. I also use Nova instead of the Touchwiz or AOSP/Google launcher as its better than either IMHO.
[Galaxy S III General] duffymm:
Anyone can suggest a complete list of apk to delete / hibernate to debloat the stock Samsung rom? Thanks
[Galaxy S III General] virakcam:

Hi everyone, hows ML2 performance? im planning to flash back on stock rom. need your feedback. thank you.
[Galaxy S III General] medberdai:
the short answer is it's slightly better without customization.

After I rooted it, greenified all the apps except Viber, installed Nova Launcher and disabled TouchWiz / S voice / Samsung Sync Services running in the background and removed installed apps from booting up automatically at startup I ended up with excellent battery life. the first 10% consumed gave me almost 1 hour of screen on.

Memory usage is around 380MB. so more than 450MB of free memory
[Galaxy S III General] Pedrodv666:
Yes, i did. i've AOSP contacts dialer or maybe is because hdvoice.

Using the Swiss rom, smoother than BTU...

I dirty flash it over BTU. I had 50% of battery, then I made a full charge, but after that full charge I had a quick battery drain. Only today, after the second full charge, I'm getting better battery results, but still, it's draining a lot... I'm on 60% with only 1h of screen...

On the new Israel rom, Is there anything, kernel, modem, etc, that can be better than the Swiss rom??

Ciao
[Galaxy S III General] netllocke:
I have just uninstalled the stock - ML2 - Switzerland 4.3 rom and installed the Israeli Mk7 .

MK7 - smoother and faster

- run at much cooler temperature

- no lag in transition when changing screens

- overall an improvement on the UK - MK6 stock rom 4.3 version

- uses much lesser ram over the Swiss ML2 version

- 2 additional apps come installed ( Jewish calender & Snap N Go) ,you may turn off the apps but cannot uninstall unless you wanna root your phone.

ML2 is a with new build kernel but personally on my i9300 its suck the life of my battery almost flat over an 4 hrs of continuous usage.

Personally to me this is the Israeli MK7 version stock is most stable Samsung's stock rom for my phone with jellybean 4.3 to date !. :good:
[Galaxy S III General] BennyZars:
ok im gonna try this stock rom. let see if its good. i like the "cooler temperature" that you said because it really became hotter when im playing high end games..
[Galaxy S III General] gaui:
Why isn't MK7 listed?
[Galaxy S III General] danierakes:
Its older build dude...ml2 is the latest one
[Galaxy S III General] gaui:
I know dude, older builds are listed below and it's not there.
[Galaxy S III General] medberdai:
My S3 just consumed the last 1% percent of battery since I posted about ML2. I've attached screenshots of ML2.

a full charge gave me 1 day and 14h. 5 h 50min screen on. I used the web browse a lot and watched many videos. Screen brightness set to Auto and WiFi remained on all that time. I Installed a few apps, skyped and used viber and took many pictures.

I could have achieved longer screen on time if I reduced brightness and set Airplane mode on during two nights.

unless I hear better results from MK7 I'll stay with ML2

Which kernel are you using? And what settings?
[Galaxy S III General] medberdai:
Using stock kernel.

I Disabled:

* SmartStay

* Sync (I enable it when needed).

* Keyboard sound and vibration

* Limit background processes set to 2 (you'll find it in developer options)

* Greenified all the apps that showed up in its list

* Quarantined this apps and components: ChatOn, Gear Manager, Game Hub, Google Play Game, Google Play Music, Group Play, Paper Artist, S Suggest, S Voice, TouchWiz, and those Samsung Services that sync in the background (their icon is a blueish circle containing a cloud and turning arrows )
[Galaxy S III General] gaui:
How do you quarantine apps and components?

TouchWiz

you use other launcher? cause you disable TouchWiz...:confused:

No need to ROOT your ROM. You can disable app's without that. Just use Applications Manager and disable unnecessary bloatware.

Update...

Hi

Thought I'd just update on my experience with BTU MK6.

Overall much better than the previous S3 killer; battery life is ok, wake-up lag is ok. Neither is ideal, but not much different to 4.1.2 in my experience. There are a few annoyances though:

1) Go to http://e-musicmaestro.com/auraltests/grade1/1b/practice1/111/ in the stock browser and click the play button on one of the streams. Immediately I get "Unfortunately Internet has stopped". This used to work on 4.1.2, and works in Chrome. It may be an incompatibility with the Flash player I installed a while back, but it's still annoying.

2) Quite often Play Store will crash when I do an update. When I restart it the app that was being updated when the crash happened will show as needing updating, but will not automatically continue.

3) On the lock screen, if I slide down the notification bar that shows updates are available and tap that item, Play Store will open, but will never load anything. Launching Play Store from a notification only works if the screen is already locked.

4) Similarly there are numerous apps where, if I tap on the notification after having opened the notification bar from the lock screen, the app will open, but the lock screen won't disappear.

5) Touchwiz refresh is a pain in the neck; after exiting the e.g. stock browser it is often a few seconds befire Touchwiz restores all its icons.

6) When I tap on the link in facebook emails (using Aqua Mail), Facebook quite often opens but doesn't do anything. I don't know if this is a Facebook issue of a firmware issue. Given that it worked fine on the old firmware, and it's similar to the Play Store thing, I thought I'd add it here.

So, overall, as I said, it's not bad, but there are definitely still issues there.
[Galaxy S III General] DocMarc73:
Did you do a full wipe/factory reset after upgrading?
[Galaxy S III General] GrippingSphere:
Try factory reset. I don't experience any problem on Play Store. I can't comment on Touch Wiz and Aqua mail because I don't use them.

Flash Player doesn't work on stock browser and on Chrome. It works though on Dolphin browser with flash player set to ON in settings. You have to install the Flash Player apk via a File Explorer.

if got an update am i able to update via kies????
[Galaxy S III General] dc_power!:
Your phone's configured Customer Sales Code doesn't match any of the ones in the rom image you've flashed. It seems that with ICS and JB it's become a bit harder to change the phone's CSC (not impossible though). If you're ok with flashing with Odin, then this shouldn't bother you. But if you prefer to be able to update with Kies, then I'd say Google around for a way to change it or flash images intended for your phone's configured region.
[Galaxy S III General] MethMargera:

[Galaxy S III General] Demonhotrod:
Anyone else (unfortunate enough) to of updated to XXLG6, notice suddenly a huge battery drain? Because I have. I've had it off charge for 5 hours and my battery is sitting at 56% (screen on time 25 minutes), which is much, much less than it ever was before when I was using the previous firmware, as a comparison, at the beginning of the week, I remember hitting 1 day of battery with 48% remaining. I've not installed any extra apps, absolutely nothing has changed other than the firmware.

Can anyone else confirm something similar?

(I can supply a picture of my battery stats in Settings, if it would help)
[Galaxy S III General] Corky100:
OK this has left me some serious issues..... I flashed BLG6 update over rooted UK update from last week (using desktop Odin) and get these multiple errors...

"process.android.acore has stopped working" and "messaging has stopped working".

Whats wrong? More importantly how can i fix this?

edit - after multiple flashes (settled on XXLFB ROM) and resets it finally sorted itself... rebooted to recovery, wipe cache/reset and eventually works.
