[Galaxy S III General] DeadSOL:
Oh, look. It's you again. The last time we met, you humiliated yourself quite a lot. Don't make the same mistake. I'm only going to say this once- it's my choice whether or not I want to flash a ROM and/or root. You can bugger off for all I care.

If you ever decide to try and be nice to people, maybe our conversations could go another way. Anyway, you're not worth another word! Toodles!
[Galaxy S III General] alandd86:
hey guys am on XXELKC ..do i need to wipe data to flash the XXELL5 ?or just wipe cache enough ?
[Galaxy S III General] :
Don't be a fool. It's a fact that your reviews looks like the people on the PlayStore rating an app, and I never saw myself humiliated about that. Still, did you or anyone see any line saying you don't have reasons not to update? I just told you that there's no such thing as branded roms = unstable or unbranded roms = stable, and explained it clearly, and it applies for everyone, not just for you. So please, the next time I give you an some information, read it carefully before reacting like a fool. You have the right to agree or not, but your reply is just ridiculous. I wrote you a neutral reply, not considering your past actions.
[Galaxy S III General] RedKingCrab:
Anyone?
[Galaxy S III General] erto90:
2 observations

1) there isnt a firmware that start in a determined language, it depends on csc ( so if you got a french csc, the rom will start in french) etc..

2) download csc chenger ( is called Galaxy s/s... Csc) from play store and restore your csc,if possible

Dont care about that,language can be selected very easy, install last 4.1.2 that is best rom around :)

Samsung keyboard did not correct anything in LKC and it still doesn't in LL5. Is there any fix without wiping the whole ROM?
[Galaxy S III General] :
I'm having the impression that the RIL from the latest ROM is bad. It's taking too long to get signal. Still, signal is pretty bad. I'll try to get old RIL, and if it's better I'll post here.
[Galaxy S III General] kdebarb63:
Installed ELL5 (4.1.2) Germany with XEF DLJ2 cache.img & hidden.img

(extract all file from tar.md5, replace cache & hidden, build a new tar.md5 file flashed with Mobile Odin).

No issue on language and keyboard.

Connexion to internet using Wifi LEAP access point - I got an Authentification error work by using DLJ4 stock rom. :(

Edit: found some post & issue reported on LEAP Wifi http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=34212
[Galaxy S III General] vBasceanu:
I have flashed I9300XXELL5.

Now I cannot get into the recovery boot menu (following power-on sequence -> vol up + home + power but). Is this a known issues and can you get around it ?

Anothing issues I found : Android OS consumes more power than the Screen Display.
[Galaxy S III General] j0sefuz:
i like this german rom. a little bit smoother than the previous roms.

i was surprised when i opened the S Planner widget (w/c I always use) and saw all the upcoming holidays IN MY COUNTRY in its dates, and also my birthday!!! O_O

messaging lag still present - well have to enable gpu rendering still..

:)
[Galaxy S III General] MuertoKo:
GPU rendering should be On by default, too bad they don't check it, solves (nearly) every smoothness issue as 0 cost!
[Galaxy S III General] volkantipi:
multiview for this rom out?
[Galaxy S III General] MuertoKo:
Sammy 4.1.2 will all have MW
[Galaxy S III General] Chagrim:
Multieview included in the rom, but all apps mod should come out today (:
[Galaxy S III General] volkantipi:
Thank you asked it.
[Galaxy S III General] Squall-Leonhart:
and introduces FC's in some apps... good job.
[Galaxy S III General] j0sefuz:
i never experienced FC issues while GPU rendering on. maybe it is just a myth?
[Galaxy S III General] MuertoKo:
Just lol :P NEVER had a single FC in any App, ever... And I've ALWAYS, since HTC Sensation used this option ticked... Can you share some app where it happens? Anyway to reproduce it¿ Or you just read it somewhere and thought it was true? (Like many of us do I agree).

Don't say things you can't probe, and if you can, please do it, I'll be thankful to reproduce the issue, but for now that's pure myth to me
[Galaxy S III General] j0sefuz:
i remember having FC with GPU rendering OFF. i never tried to reproduce it to confirm but it happens when i open an image from facebook and make it a contact image. after doing it for some time, like around 20 images i put into contact, FB force closes.

i believe GPU rendering is OFF by that time since i just discovered this option with 4.1.2 poland.
[Galaxy S III General] MuertoKo:
I have no FC there neither, did yesterday with all my contacts who have crappy pictures on WhatsApp :P Always ticked On in my case so not related to this but to the app itself I guess...

And completly agree, too much reading too few trying, I guess... not meaning to sound round though, just stating a fact
[Galaxy S III General] j0sefuz:
i'll try to replace my contacts' image later since this is a new flash. GPU rendering will be ON this time. will post an update if FCed or not.
[Galaxy S III General] Mikulec:
Theres definitely one app that does not like GPU rendering on - Androidify. And I recall some problems with setting up the Lockscreen wallpaper but I think thats fixed now. Other then these 2 issues I never experienced problems with this option turned on.
[Galaxy S III General] MuertoKo:
Downloading now :D Just curious about this posible issue, thanks for sharing your knowledge :D

Even if it won't be a deal breaker for me or many it's worth cheking if the "myth" of GPU rendering is a common issue or just a tiny problem with some concrete un-adapted apps (as you say some others fixed it, guess it's something that the dev of the app can fix himself)

Edit: Funny anyway that it's a google Inc. App lol

Edit2: Yep, FC is a myth :P It just missbehaves, you can't see the tiny android, no FC or anything, just visual glitch! Thank you for the knowledge-sharing!

Oh crap, now we can't use GPU rendering to get amazing smoothness at no cost anymore or we will lose our little android customization App! (Jokin' :P)
[Galaxy S III General] _JKay_:
Just compared XXELKC with XXELL5:

Regarding the android framework they are 99.9 % the same... only minor changes to the telephony classes.

framework-res.apk resource id's are the same but a mobile_bip entry has been added to the networkAttributes array.
[Galaxy S III General] MuertoKo:
Any idea what could that be related to? I guess some really-minor fix for something?
[Galaxy S III General] erto90:
is really true that this rom is smoother than poland one?
[Galaxy S III General] RorixRebel:
Was going to download this version but if it's the same as the last one, we'll then what's the point.
[Galaxy S III General] ricnar456:
each version with higher changelist is a bit more polished and smooth than previous version.

(not a biiiggg difference but a bit more polished and smooth)

[Galaxy S III General] philseven:
Just wondering if you could get this working for Samsung Galaxy S III I535 Verizon version.
[Galaxy S III General] robogo1982:
Keyboards other than stock (at least Smart Keyboard Pro) still work at full haptic feedback intensity (whereas it should follow the system setting). The Samsung Keyboard works fine and does not have this problem.

Weird. And annoying.
[Galaxy S III General] atilla88:
I never had on the galaxy s2 and even on the first galaxy a launcher redraw.....NEVER.

I know about a different launcher bought nova launcher prime some while ago and its a great launcher buuut it isn't even near as smooth as touchwiz,

Its only the horrible redraw.

And this has nothing to do with the option to use a different launcher.

I paid 600 euros for the black version and i shouldn't even have to bother about such a problem.

Who buys a car and uses a different engine because the stock one sucks???

This is in my eyes epic fail

Btw: i had on all launchers i used the redraw:apex,nova and go

I tried almost everything to solve it

I used almost 5 apps which clsim to keep launcher in memory-mctweaker,apex and so on

I even used this hardcore multitasking script (forgot the name) it solved the redraw but broke my ram management.

You guys are always talking about multitasking but a phone which closes e everything when i leave it (browser,launcher,gallery) isn't in my opinion capable of true multitasking.............

My 2 cents
[Galaxy S III General] paddylaz:
I only wish this WERE true. Most people are finding the message conversations lag during scroll

as well as the gallery. It slightly depresses me that the fastest experience Ive had with the gs3 is BLG8 BTU ICS which was lightening fast.

I cant stand apple most of the time, but if one had to some it up in a sentence, I'd say the majority of iphone forums get excited about software updqtes because they add new features.....whereas on these sorts of forums the excitement seems to be based around longing for bug fixes and something as simple as smooth lag-free operation on what is meant to be a superior piece of kit :(
[Galaxy S III General] drakester09:
iPhone forums get excited about updates because they are finally gonna get the features that have long been in other mobile OS.

iOS is stagnant and hardly innovative nowadays.

It's true that Samsung's firmware could be improved, certainly most of us look forward to some fixes on each release.

However we have the advantage of a great and rich community that always improves upon the devices we have.

My only wish is that Samsung was more open and helpful with the dev community but that unfortunately seems too far and lost in the horizon.
[Galaxy S III General] paddylaz:
Yeah fair point....I suppose the reason I get frustrated is that the walled-garden iOS nature is restricted, but the benefits of it are that it's smooth and fast, and consistent.....and reliable. Whereas android is wonderfully open to experimentation (hence these forums) but buggy and downright disappointing sometimes. The lag infuriates me. Back when I had an S2 I tried the lumia phones and I kind of thought for a bit that this would be that sweetspot compromise between android and ios that would change mobile devices. Well it hasn't and i still love the gs3 but just sick of the random.....but also (at the risk of sounding insulting))..amateur screw ups. I mean they bring out ICS...then jelly bean but at the same time bring in this gallery black bar issue....now theyve solved the black bar issue but Now made the gallery uncharacteristically laggy. WHY?? It's like they're.almost (to coin a phrase of my country) taking the piss by fixing something but at the same time messing up two others. The fact that every new rom needs now a review and pros/cons is pretty depressing.

S3 rom 4.1.2

is this rom for vodafone only ? I 'm in Turkey and can I use this rom?
[Galaxy S III General] JohnnyGT:
can you add the removed apk in a file if needed to install something i like ?

please
[Galaxy S III General] _JKay_:
I was only talking about the framework. . Some apps may have changed!

Regarding memory and redraw its the same as xxelkc... the best way to make your phone fly is to remove the apps and services you don't use and then whitelist those you use a lot.

Note: if you upgrade from a version with the ink effect enabled then set it to none and disable it before you flash.... otherwise you will have to do a full wipe!

Hint: How I flashed: used Mobile Odin and select my nordic nee csc from xxdlib and removed the hidden.img

No wipe, clear cache. Worked fine.

Also: Don't change recovery until after flash and reboot.

[Galaxy S III General] Lolento:
THANKS!

This is very helpful to know.
[Galaxy S III General] ricnar456:
S2 had bad transicions between desktops in 2.3.3, and was solved in the next versions of GB.

The first ICS (poland) was terrible and have very choppy scroll, with crazy jumps and stops, lags, and was solved in MONTHS of development in ICS, till last ICS with no problems was released.

S3 had a lot a new versions in a short time, with no enough time for improve one, remember the gaps between actualizations in s2 and no visible changes between GB and ICS using the same version of touchwiz both , s3 had upgraded from ICS to JB 4.1.1 and next to 4.12 with a lot of changes in very short time.

S3 will be improved with time ( i think is necesary one month dedicated to the same version) , and the lags and problems will be solved.

[Galaxy S III General] andrewbat:
What is the correct CSC for Australia?
[Galaxy S III General] erviren:
4.2.1 to 4.1.1

Same thing happened to me, I tried to re-install JB 4.1.1 on my S3 running 4.1.2 , ODIN flashed it successfully but it stuck on Samsung boot logo...

Had to wipe out the phone and then tried flashing 4.1.1 again, it was coming with Polish language without option to select English or any other.

Then finally installed 4.1.2 again poland versiona and is working fine now.

Anyone know how can I go back to 4.1.1 firmware, I didnt like 4.1.2, its laggy and making phone slow, also gallery is crap...

Thanks guys!

XXell5 Voda UK just released too.

I get the feeling the only difference between XXELL4 and XXELL5 is vodafone bloatware b/c German XXELL5 is a Voda Rom too

just b/c builds newer it does not mean better
[Galaxy S III General] MuertoKo:
LL4 might be better, but LL5 is newer, and as long as you flash an unbranded version like Perka's you'll have it like unbranded, but newer than LL4 ;)

And about compatibility it has absolutely nothing to do, you can even flash whatever modem you want, no need at all to use the one that comes with the branded if you don't like it, I'm sticking to DLID just because it was the last one for Spanish region and everything works just great, branded or not doesn't mean anything if you flash it after someone else unbranded it and so on, like wanam or Perka use to do.
[Galaxy S III General] :
Which one is the best, XXELL5 or XXELL4? Test both.

Which one might be the newest one? XXELL5, much higher changelog (even though changelogs doesn't say everything) and the firmware code is higher.

If you want, get mobileodin lite, flash XXELL5 system but flash XXELL4-BTU cache if you want to unbrand it. There's no difference between branded and unbranded firmwares with the same code, it doesn't affect at all your performance, compatibility, battery life, etc. The only thing that differ a branded and unbranded firmware is the cache.img, where contains sec_csc.zip, which is exactly the CSC that bloats and brands your ROM.
[Galaxy S III General] brainimpact:
Why is there 2 XXELL4 BTU uploaded by SamMobile and look to be exactly the same?

if I do non Wipe with XXELL4 BTU over ELKC using Mobile Odin pro will it break Ink Effect mod?
