I had a multi contact issue, it wasn't from this ROM though, it's a general issue. At least it was for me. I had contacts saved on my gmail/google account, saved to my sim card, and also facebook intergration. The phone would list all the different types of contacts multiple times. Example:

I have Sam saved under google, sim, and facebook

Contact would show as:

Sam Google

Sam SIM

Sam Facebook

I wanted only to show my google saves since I connect everything to google/gmail.

To fix this I made a back up of my contacts and exported it to a micro SD card, and also backed up on gmail just in case. I then went into settings within contacts and changed to view SIM only. Hit menu settings again and select delete, then select all. This will delete all the numbers off the SIM. I then deleted/uninstalled Facebook. This wiped out Facebook. I took my Wi-fi/Data off as well syncing then deleted Google contacts. I now have 0 people listed on my contacts. I then reset the phone. Turn the phone on, turn on wifi/data and only sync google. Once that synced my contacts was restored from my gmail account.

This fixed my multi contacts as well displaying photos when receiving texts or calls. Make sure to also select one account to show contacts, mine was google.

One Question for Sim Lock issue:

Came this issue after first install or can it lock the phone after every reboot or using cwm?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] dordort:
Awsome. :)

And another thing, Contacts and Phone apps are very laggy! its about 3 seconds to open them (if they are closed and not in RAM).
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Virnik0:
Hard to say. I have bought my phone as un-locked, from official distribution (Datart Megastore). I had Criskelo's ROM 5.2 before, and I have flashed version 5.4 directly last night. No issue so far. I suppose that sim-lock happens to the phones which was off-market unlocked, which means that it was locked by some Operator, then unlocked by some store (grey-market sales).

Which is exactly the same like the situation of the ppl who bought locked phone, unlocked it, and then they found it locked after 5.4 flash.

This seems to have something to do with Samsung, who may added some sanity check to the ROM Update itself, restoring previous state of the lock.

I do believe that in case sim-lock activates for you, you have following options:

- restore from previously created CWM backup (ie NAND Backup)

- unlock it again via some tool (from Google Store or app on PC).

I do not have serious insight to this issuse, because I am not affected. To say the truth, everything seems to be pretty fine, unchanged, working, in order. So everything I wrote may be corrected by some other more funded person in this issue. What I wrote depends hardly on logical explanations I've made based on my knowladge and experiences.

Also, I do not believe that your phone may lock during daily usage on it's own. If it's sanity check says it is locked, you will propably find out right after reboot. So automatic sim-lock after some time of unlocked state is hard to happen.

Factory wipe + cache and dalvik wipes.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lpuboy87:
did you try the modem in v5.3?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Virnik0:
STOP!!!

To fix contacts issue, you do not have to do factory reset!!!

1) Disable wireless and data connections and disable Sync.

2) switch to Airplane mode

3) Open Settings->Apps

4) Switch to All view

5) Find: Contacts Storage, Callendar Storage, Email Storage

6) Wipe all data and settings to all three apps.

7) Reboot.

After this, you will have no contacts, no emails, no callendar events.

Switch off Airplane mode, and enable data or wireless. Then enable sync, and just wait.

But much more better solution is like this:

1) Do stepps 1-7 in previous tip

2) Go to /system/app with Root explorer, remount it R/W

3) Delete (or move somewhere else): SecEmail.apk and Exchange.apk

4) Install Enhanced Email from the Google Play store.

5) Run it once, close it

6) Go to /data/app with Root explorer, and find enhanced email apk file. Rename it to Email.apk

7) Move Email.apk to /system/app

8) Change ownership of the Email.apk to root.root

9) Change permissions of the Email.apk to rw-r-r

10) Reboot.

11) After reboot, enable data and sync, and wait.

12) Once you have contacts back, setup your exchange account. It will work correctly this way

To say the truth, I didn't flashed 5.3 at all. I have flashed 5.2, then I have made theme for it. Once I wanted to try and theme 5.3, I was warned that 5.4 is comming out soon, so I have completelly ignored 5.3. So no, I haven't. But it is easy to create ZIP with such modem. Why? Do you want me to prepare such ZIP with the 5.3's modem?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lpuboy87:
oh was just asking to see if you noticed a difference between the 5.3 and 5.4 modem thats all :good: im thinking my battery drains a bit more on 5.4 then when it was 5.3...but maybe its just me :silly::silly:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Virnik0:
Then grab Modem zips I have published here, and try it out. So you can revert back, if needed. Or I can prepare zip with modem from 5.3 too.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lpuboy87:
im new to all this..can i just install the modem zips in recovery with no problem? or do i need to do something else to get them working properly?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Virnik0:
Modems are binary files containing microcode to operate GSM module in your phone. Install zip files do the same like full ROM package. It means that during CWM flash, installer script decompress ZIP, and modem.bin file found in it is written to standalone partition on your phone. So even if this update fails, your phone will not be damaged. If something goes wrong, you may end-up with phone unable to connect to your GSM operator network, nothing more. Fix is easy too, just flash it again, or flash different modem.

So it is pretty safe.

1) Download ZIP with modem of your choice

2) place it on the SD card on the phone

3) boot to CWM, and install modem zip from it

4) reboot

You will find your actual modem in the Settings->About->Status

So yes, you can test any modem released for I9300 (ie from any rom released for I9300) without any danger.

I will prepare 5.3 modem install zip for you, so you can revert back to your actual state easily.

Until I'll finish it (i have to download full 5.3 and extract modem from it), you are free to test both already published modems out.

Enjoy ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lpuboy87:
k thanks for making that clear to understand :highfive::highfive::good::good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] manikam:
Thank you so much. I installed the zip via cwm recovery. The Samsung Chinese IME keyboard appears after reboot. however, it is not stable as it crashed frequently during typing.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Virnik0:
Try Anysoft Keyboard. I think that it will work fine for you, with your preferred language. Just install it, and then install chinese translation for it.

EDIT:

Here is promissed Modem ZIP install package from XXBLG1 firmware (Criskelo's 5.3)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] manikam:
I factory reset n full wipe my s3, install Criskelo v5.3. Still encountered duplicated contacts n calendars. What is the cause of it???

Does the Enchanced Email solve ths issue? Coz i need to purchase it.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Virnik0:
I suppose that it is something borked in the ROM's default Email, and it's Exchange sync (it is not fault of Criskelo and his team, Stock ROM works the same way).

Enhanced Email is maintained by Daniel Ochoa, I have made czech translation for it, and I was his first tester (in the times of SGS and SGSII). It is customized to provide user with best Exchange corporate experience, which means that it should work with it OK. I have it here right now, and it works flawlessly.

Just test it, you can revert back anytime you want.

BTW, login to your Gmail account on the PC, and then check your contacts. Delete duplicates, edit it as it suits you. Just to be sure that everything is OK on Google's side.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] manikam:
Thanks. I was fine with Criskelo ROM v3.x to v5.2. I am searching for a fix. Else may roll back to v5.2.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Virnik0:
Can you try and replace SecEmail.apk and Exchange.apk from 5.2? I mean, copy over both files from 5.2, and place it to your actual ROM with Root Explorer. Fix it's ownership and permissions, and reboot.

Well, I don't know about Phenomenal, but Syiah Kernel is here for a long time. And it proven itself worth flash. At least latest update, 1.5b1, fixes brightness levels on it's own. And it works fine, no need to tune framework.

What do you mean? If you need some app for setting audio profiles, download Audio Manager. It's widget, and you can set any sound volume for any audio type you may need.

If you are in 5.3 flash the kitchen and disabled this option :)

Is this a silly question but... using this Rom... do we still have FULL camera capabilities ie no shutter lag, burst mode, face mode etc? :confused:

Just installed this ROM and am loving the speed.

One thing I have noticed though is when I insert my headphones into the headphone jack, there is no icon at the top of the device indicating that the headphones are in.

I still receive sound through the plugged in headphones but it is a bit disconcerting not having the notification.

I have used the kitchen to mod the battery and was wondering if this could be causing it

I also enabled audio boost and feel like the sound is not actually centred instead with the balance set greater to the left.

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Cheers.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Virnik0:
I suppose that something went wrong in the kitchen theming. I do use different theme, and I do have headphones icon.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] slonn:
Great rom - have tried several but keep coming back to this one. Only issue I have encountered is the screen time timeout. I have set it to 15 second but after each reboot it changes automatically to 30 seconds. Is there a fix to this?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
Are you using the quick toggle in the noti pull down to change screen timeout or going into the actual settings and changing it? Just curious because I do notice that toggling it through the notification toggles doesn't light it up like the rest. The 15 second selection looks like it turn the screen timeout off.. or at least the little bar underneath indicating that its on, turns white for the 15sec selection. Just something I noticed.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] slonn:
Not using the quick toggle for screen timeout. I always go into the actual settings. It's not a big deal, just wondering why it won't stay at 15 seconds for time out.

Tried the pure Jelly Bean rom yesterday and I have to say that the CriskeloRom is just as fast. At least I didn't notice better smoothness or speed in pure Jelly Bean.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Virnik0:
That's because JB is still not finished. At least not for SGS3, it has something to do with HW acceleration of the desktop.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] slonn:
Ok, guess there are different interpretations of "Stock JB Look and Feel" (taken from OP description). It sure doesn't feel any faster than CriskeloRom.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Virnik0:
It won't be until it's finished porting to SGS3. Personally, I don't see reason to use JB on SGS3 as a daily driver as of yet.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] mondeo-rs:
Read first post, themes and mods are in the kitchen.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Virnik0:
In my case, this was easy to solve. In any case, you must have contacts properly synced in google. I had done this:

1) Disable wifi and 3G data.

2) Switch to airplane mode

3) Disable account sync

4) Now go to the Settings->Apps->All

5) Wipe app data for Contacts Storage

6) Reboot

7) On your PC, fire up browser and navigate to your gmail.com page. In the toolbar on the left, select Contacts from dropdown menu.

8) Check that all your contacts are fine, and merge or remove duplicates. Just arrange them like you want them to be (groups, favorites, names).

9) Enable 3G, wifi and sync again.

10) Your contacts should be downloaded right now. Check if the lag is still there.

In my case, It wasn't. It seems that it was some kind of corruption in the Contacts app sql storage. By following those steps from 1) to 10), you are simply wiping corrupted data files out, and importing data back from google, creating new clean database without glitches on the go.

So I suppose that it may help few others.
