You cant start with a 4.0.4 ICS firmware cos you will be flashing the old modem.pit file that mess up the IMEI number anyway mate.You need to start with the last 4.1.2 XXMEG4 firmware since thats where the modem change started.Flashing older modems (pre-XXEMG4) wont work anymore since we have this new efs folder.

It was not my S3, I'm writing this on mine. Twas my brothers S3 he had just bought. He was so annoyed with the red Vodacom splash screen, and knowing I had a good rom, he flashed immediately, no backup.

Now I have to fix as "it was your rom that did this."

To be fair, he is being patient, he still has his trusty Galaxy S, but nothing I do to try to fix the S3 seems to work.

It is now at the phone hospital and I bet they will send it on to Samsung to fix.

Hello Omega Team,

I am a big fan of your work and community however the 1st ROM I tried was based on the leaked 4.2.2 for sammy... The performance of this ROM which was based on 4.2.2 was really amazing for everything "Games, Multi Tasks and Everything" maybe cuz I choosed V6 Supercharger in the aroma installer as I heard a lot about this script/tweaks "I am noob about this staff"... I dun wanna bla bla bla, I just have few questions if some1 can help me with them...

1- Is V6 SuperCharger applied to the latest ROM V51!? And if not, Is it possible to use it on this ROM V51!? And if yes, I wish one of your respectable team or any1 to just inform me about organized steps to install this script on this ROM V51 "I will very much appreciate it"

2- While installing Yank555's Kernal and at the last step, There was 2 options for init.d support or something "1- No, ROM handles this" & "2- Yes, ramdisk or something like that"... I choosed 1- No, Rom Handles This and I dun know if it is right or wrong and I don't know what is this.. Is it right!?

3- Can some1 help me with a flashable zips the existing modem MJ3 and the latest modem from samsung which is MJ9 I think!?

Thanks in advance and sorry for being that noob who might ask newbie questions :(

Omega 51 pros and cons

I've given v51 a shot for the last couple of weeks to try out Android 4.3. Running Yank555 kernel after first couple of days.

Pros:

Definite performance improvement over 4.1.2 smoother interface and better app performance.

20% better benchmark scores. (I know benchmarks are rarely "real world" indicators, but it's worth noting.)

Comparable battery life after switching to Yank555.

Cons:

Periodically deleted "rarely used apps" even after I turned this "feature" off.

Seems to have killed my SanDisk 64gb microsdxc. This is the deal breaker.

Standard kernel battery life was terrible.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DeeinSouthAfrica:
I know there is a definite delay - the screen stays black for a while when pulling away from your ear. I wave it in the air for a second until the phone notices the light and gives me the phone pad. :)

I really think this is another 4.3 bug, and I just live with it.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Birthday Suit:
Omega users needed...

Could do with some help.

Been an Omega user since v40 and the Rom/Indie has always delivered. Never ventured to 4.2 because it never seemed to quite settle. Anyway, i made it to v51 and using Yank it seems to just get quicker and snappier each time i use it.

The problem...

So if i go to my 4-way boot option, and hit restart, it restarts to a bootloop...!? If i then hold down the power button and restart again i get a 50/50 bootloop or restart..!? Now, if i go to Recovery and choose restart from there i get a message 'Root access possibly lost. Fix?'. Something is up...

I'm in two minds whether to go back to 4.1.2 or push on with the emotional roller-coaster of 4.3.

Any help would be great folks

Cheers
[Galaxy S III Android Development] II GHOSTFACE II:
The recovery is outdated I'm using the latest philz touch and that issue is resolved. Regarding boot loops I had an issue regarding black screen upon restart and I found my issue was due to removing files (email/my files/usual bloat) and since I've left it I hadn't had an issue. Have you removed such files? If I remember correct the boot animation could also be an issue but I'm sure yank updated with a fix on that etc.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Birthday Suit:
Thanks for the reply.

I'm using the latest CWM 6.0.4.4, but have the latest Philz Touch ready to flash, so i'll give that a go. I've removed or frozen most bloat, so i'll just have to try reflashing v51 and do a little trial and error on freezing bloat. I'll also give the latest Yank a try to see if it helps.

Cheers
[Galaxy S III Android Development] rapita:
I flashed the stock rom 4.3 UGMJ9 and over this rom, I installed the omega v51. On the CWM i did the full wipe, cache wipe and Dalvik wipe, and when I rebooted the phone, the phone was still and boot loop and the screen has a "lighting android" but not boot.

Anyone knows what solve this problem???

Regards
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sh4d0wDr4g0n2:
My 32 GB SanDisk also died using V51 + Yank kernel But i"m not saying it's rom or kernel related. Or is this a known issue?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] II GHOSTFACE II:
If you refer to full of wipe as cache and dalvik wipe then it ain't. Go to cwm wipe cache and dalvik then go to mounts and storage and format system/cache/preload/sdcard(internal). Basically format all that's there under "format" except external/sdcard1. Then flash the ROM under full wipe then you'll be sweet. You will boot with walking android then not lightning one.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Birthday Suit:
Would that be the method for completely gutting the S3 to start afresh/ returning back to 4.1.2?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cooza:
Coming to this ROM or any 4.3 ROM for the first time its recommended to do a full format/wipe install.Also the internal SD card to get rid of 4.1.2 data to avoid 4.1.2 data clashing with the new 4.3 structure since there are new system and framework updates in it.This is what I did,

Make a nandroid and TB backup to externalSD.

Pass everything to my PC and wipe intSD.

Pass ROM to externalSD (important cos the 4.3 flash will make a new memory partition)

Make sure you have the latest recovery with 4.3 support then boot to it.If not then flash it.

Installing...

Wipe cache and dalvik and manually format system/data/cache

Factory reset (choose option to install new ROM)

EFS backup then full wipe install in Aroma.

It will take a while now to boot since you formatted the system.If it doesnt then hold the 3 button combo to go back to recovery and wipe cache partition then reboot.

When it boots set up your phone and then boot to recovery and wipe cache and format system and do 1 more non-wipe install to make sure the 4.3 firmware completely installs and settles properly in the device.

Now I plug the phone in to my PC and pass back my pics music and bluetooth files that I moved to my PC before.Nothing to do with 4.1.2 mods though.

Thats a one-off thing cos after that its just non-wipe installs cos 4.3 will be completely rammed into your phone now.

does last philz cwm v6 supports intalling zip from external micro sd card because i can't find and therefore go back to v5.15?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] II GHOSTFACE II:
Yes it does support it its

"storage/sdcard1" they all support it. Latest placed it underneath "choose zip via sdcard" whereas the older ones place it at the bottom.

Need help here

I'm using omega 50.1, however my motion (direct call & palm swipe to capture) are not working at all

Tried restart phone, wipe cache & dalvik cache, turn off and on back motion still same

What wrong ???
[Galaxy S III Android Development] II GHOSTFACE II:
Try reflashing the ROM as non wipe after wiping cache and dalvik, if that's still no good as a last resort completely wipe the phone of everything then start fresh and then you should be OK.

---------- Post added at 07:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:49 PM ----------

You would want to do the same if your going vice versa like 4.3-4.1.2/4.2.2 etc unless you got a nandroid simply wipe cache/dalvik then restore nandroid as far as I'm aware, to be fair I've never reverted only progressed.

For efs backup as an extra/alternative use ktool from the market its saved me once, having like 3 different ones is always a plus.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Bartman007:
Yes, but with the current 4.3 firmware, buggy as it is, sometimes you have to completely reformat your external SD card, take a backup first :cyclops:

But follow the FAQ in Philz thread:

Before asking for support:

Lots of people fall in this trap, and blame the ROM and recovery, some the custom kernels, but its just the way Samsung works..... in mysterious ways:p
[Galaxy S III Android Development] vladstercr:
You can also try flashing a different kernel rather than the stock one which comes with the rom. I'm personally using Omega v.51 and yankk kernel v4.0a and I dont have any issues with the system. It works pretty well

[Galaxy S III Android Development] jj92942000:
I still think it's a Sammy issue. My external card about 6 mths, forget which Omega version I was on BUT within a week my wife's stock S3 extcard also died. Got both same time, both had same mfg. 32 gb card. Was told it was a Samsung problem, got both replaced under warranty. Orange didn't even check my phone that it was modified. So now both are on Omega.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] ReBORN ViRUS:
My phone has killed 2 16GB Sandisk cards in the past, on Omega and non-omega roms. When I did my research on the internet, I found that Samsung S3 phone had known issues with Sandisk cards. Not sure if this is limited only to S3 or Sandisk or how reliable the sources were but I certainly believed it after burning 2 cards. Now I use external card only for backup and I take it out and keep it preserved in my Galaxy Vibrant.

I am sure this is not entirely true for S3 but may be a specific lot.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Birthday Suit:
Worked like a charm! CWM 6.0.4.4.was clearly unhappy on my S3. Flashed the latest Philz Touch and that has fixed both my random bootloops, as well as my 'root access possibly lost' message in recovery.

Cheers GHOSTFACE :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] II GHOSTFACE II:
What you mean by that? Doing it wasn't the solution or what I said isn't a solution because they both are... reflashing a non wipe may fix a few glitches which most people do. If they don't get straight from that then starting fresh is always a great solution, a pain maybe but if its needed its needed. If you ain't happy with what I suggested... sound keep your dodgy phone as it is by all means.

Sandisk Cards

Hey,

It's not a samsung issue, its a sandisk one. Spoke to a rep from sandisk and they said that they have had issues with several batches of sandisk cards that had suddenly stopped working. Go to sandisk and get them to replace it.

They replaced mine for free as long as I showed evidence that destroyed it. The problem I had was my S3 would say that my card had been ejected and for me to insert an sd card.

Thanks,

[Galaxy S III Android Development] nightwing90:
The development of Siyah kernel is stopped and now continued as Googy kernel. So if u are going to try then use Googy Max 2 or Yank or Boeffla etc. I'm using Omega v51 combined with Yank which results pretty much stable.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] slayerking:
If you read the last few pages or pretty much anywhere about 4.3 on the s3 you will see this is normal and it made samsung pull the 4.3 update which it has recently started rolling out again (supposedly)

To fix it run a custom kernel, I use googy-max2 and the lag is pretty much gone but there are still huge bugs in it. Like I went to the apps drawer and pressed back when I was finished and the phone acted like I was starting Final Fantasy then did what it was supposed to do.
