Branden - My Swype has not been a problem on this ROM. I did a restore from my Titanium Backup after flashing the ROM. Then, I went into Settlings/Language and Input. Then I tapped Default and selected "Swype Beta". Just below Swype Beta, I made sure that Swype Beta is checked. Worked great from there. If you didn't make a program backup, you can go to the Swype website and download the install program directly to your phone and start from there.

Do you know if the stock dialer comes with a dialing shortcut? I hate having to click on a contact or a call twice so that it will dial it. If anyone comes from the atrix then you know that in dialer we had a little green phone next to all the calls/contacts that would dial out with one click.

Hello, everyone. I'm at my mother's house, and will be back at the office later today to continue work on this ROM. My plans are to make individual flashable zip files for many of the important apps, including many of the bloat apps.

Did you have a custom kernel before you flashed this rom? If so you either have to reflash the stock kernel before flashing this rom
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PeterGuru:
Concerning the AT&T pop-up that appears when you open contacts. Simply open contacts, cancel the pop-up, and do it again 3 more times. That will stop it from happening again.

Hey Peter, maybe you can do something like the Aroma Ashaman Debloater, which gives you a list of apps to debloat, but instead gives you a list of all apps (or just the important/requested ones) to put back on. All we have to do is pick the ones we want back and it'll install them automatically. This would make it easier for everyone and you would not have to do a flashable version for each app.

Just a thought if it's doable. :)

I'm having the MMS issue as well. I'm not able to open images with stock messaging app or Handcent with any picture app.

I'm also having issues with the camera telling me to insert my SD card before using, but my SD card is inserted in my phone and shows up via Root Explorer.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] malinois16:
Open camera, go into settings, set storage location? Maybe
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dmm5157:
It wouldn't let me do anything except switch to rear camera, front camera, or video.

I just did a factory reset, clear everything, and re-flash the ROM. Camera is working again, but MMS pictures are still a no-go. I have to download them and then view them.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PeterGuru:
Would be great, but ...

Great idea! However, I have to admit, this is beyond me. I would need to learn a lot more about how this method is developed. Perhaps I can teach myself, as I've taught myself virtually everything else.

Do you have any suggestions as to where I can begin to research such an installer?

Peter

Addendum: I just posted a request on mrRobinson's thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1732039) asking permission to use/modify his AROMA installer. I'll first wait for his reply.

---------- Post added at 04:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:55 PM ----------

I’ve prepared a few files, which you can flash in CWM. If a few of you could test them to see if they are working on your devices, I would be most thankful.

Accuweather files: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/40461231/AccuweatherWidget.zip

Yahoo News & Stocks: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/40461231/YahooApps.zip

AT&T Navigator: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/40461231/AT&T.Navigation.zip

Live Wallpapers: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/40461231/LiveWallpapers.zip

Concerning the last one, what is the app called TopicWall.apk? Is it also a Live Wallpaper?

I’m working on more, but I will not publish them until I know the above files are working, if the apps are actually doing what they’re supposed to do. I’ve never used them, so I’m not the best for this observation. As far as I can tell, they are working fine on my Rogers unit, but your testing will help to confirm this.

Peter

P.S. For JDBeitz: These files are on my DropBox folder, but I’d rather not leave them there. Once they are proven to work, can I add them to our DB folder, and then can you can upload them?

There is a guide floating around for installing Google Now. I tried it a day or two ago. It works mostly but has to rely on the built in voice recognition which isn't as accurate or fast.

Ill try to find the link later tonight when I have a little free time (if someone hasn't posted it by then), I'm in the middle of a batman marathon at the moment:sly:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 3NDL3R:
Just a question (don´t like to read 101 pages and search didn´t help) :

My S3 AT&T (i747) is still rooted and CWM 5.8.4.5 touch is installed and I´m still use CM9, CM10 or AOKP.

But why do I only get a black screen when I wiped factory&dalvik installing Diet, Apocalypse among others?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jdbeitz:
It won't boot at all? I JUST installed cm10 so I'll test this tonight.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] wildcard30:
You need to restore from a stock rooted nandroid and then flash the stock based rom. I believe it is to do with the different kernels used for AOSP or AOKP compared to stock based roms. Thats what works for me because I rotate between 3 roms Diet ICS, Ultimatum and AOKP. To come from AOKP to the other 2 I do a full wipe then restore from one of my stock rooted nandroid and then update to the current version of the rom.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jdbeitz:
Awesome man. Thanks for that info!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 3NDL3R:
No,no, no ... IT BOOTS ... that´s not my problem (Samsung Galaxy SIII logo is showing up)...

... but then the screen goes black and nothing happens ... that w/ every stock custome rom.

Using the CM9, CM10, AOKP I have no problems to get this installed and up and running at all.

So I thought whether I doing ssth. wrong while installing the rom. Maybe needing another CWM?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] malinois16:
2 post above your's is the answer. You can't flash a stock ROm that doesnt have boot.img included over an AOSP build. Restore nandroid first than flash stock rom....of find a stock rom that has boot.img and kernel included.

I'm not a Dev, but I did sleep in a Holiday Inn last night. :p

I replaced the Camera, Gallery and Message app and I can set wallpapers for the lock screen again. I liked the stock messaging app because when you get a message it shows up as an envelope on the lock screen that you can swipe to open and read. On a side note maybe in the next release you could put back the wireless data toggle in the notification drop down, seems like the driving mode replaced it which I personally never use.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] natefish:
I like that idea. +1. I like all of the updated apps, but it would be great to switch if need be. The new SMS app is great, but I think it was acting a little wonky with notifications at first. That or Ringo Pro isn't quite compatible with it yet.

can you please provide a lil how-to for reinstalling certain stock apps (apk files) back onto your rom? i saw it randomly in a couple posts, but it would be easier to see it at the front page for reference. also, does the lockscreen still black out like a tv turning off? how do i get rid of that?

thanks, downloading and will be flashing soon.

The stock gallery can be installed over without any issues at all. But the stock sms/mms apps and camera apps are a must in my honest opinion.

Thanks for taking our opinions into consideration. In the meantime, is there any way to replace the sms and camera apps to stock manually?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PMentior:
The camera I know can. Use the instructins I posted earlier for the lockscreen weather fix just use the SamsungCamera.apk instead of the weather ones.

I don't know if it works with sms but it should. I like the one in the rom now better but all give it a try in a min to see.

**EDIT** I just did a quick check with the sms app and it does work too. Use the secMMS.apk file

Again those steps should work with installing any stock apks in the system/app folder.

Lots of Solutions ...

Okay, I've been working feverishly on flashable zips for MANY apps. Many of them do not need you to delete anything in your system folder as the updater-script handles the deletion. All of these flashable zips also wipe your cache partition and Dalvik cache, so you don't need to do that, either.

For JDBeitz: All 27 zip mods below are now in our DB folder, under sub-folder Mods.Flash.in.CWM.

Here's a preliminary list of everything that should soon be available:

AccuweatherWidget.zip

AllShare.zip

AT&T.Browser.zip

AT&T.Navigation.zip

ChatON.zip

FaceLock.zip

GMail.Stock.zip

LiveWallpapers.zip

MediaHub.zip

MusicPlayer.zip

My.AT&T.zip (opens properly, but can't test as it's not available in Canada)

Polaris.Viewer.zip

Samsung.Clocks.zip

Samsung.Kies.zip

Samsung.Tec.Tiles.zip

sCloud.zip

ShareApp.ShareShot.zip

VoiceRecorder.zip

YahooApps.zip

And the following Black-Themed apps:

Black.DropBox.zip

Black.Facebook.zip

Black.GMail.zip ***

Black.GooglePlus.zip

Black.GoogleReader.zip

Black.Twitter.zip

Black.YouTube.zip

*** Concerning the black-themed GMail app, I'm still testing this. Although it works very well to give you the black-themed version, I still need to test the opposite version, the stock based one, to see if it can override the black-themed version if you don't like it. In earlier tests, once you had the black-themed version, it was very difficult to go back. Both version are in the list above.

I will also provide screenshots of the black-themed apps very soon. Be patient.

Peter

Addendum: I'm currently working on camera zips, so that you can try whichever one you like, as well as messaging apps. These will still take some time. Thanks!

Addendum 2: To repeat, all of these zips will not only wipe your cache partition and Dalvik cache, but they should also automatically delete any existing apps if you already have them installed (referring specifically to the black-themed versions). There is just ONE caveat. Before you flash any of the black-themed zip files, and you already have these apps on your device, it's best to go into Settings>Application manager, find the app in question, click on it, and if there's a button at the top-right that says to uninstall up-dates, do that first before you flash the zip.

Addendum 3: Black-themed screenshots should be ready in my next post. I must say, they look awesome. :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] natefish:

Thank you, I was able to find the post.

However, it's not letting me change permissions in any file explorer I try. In root explorer, when I try to change permissions, it gives me a message saying

"Permissions change was not successful. Please note that some file systems (e.g. SD Card) do not allow permission changes."

If I try to change permissions on a folder, it says it cannot be done because the file system is read only.

Is there a guide to creating my own zip that can be installed in CWM or is that some coding voodoo that it probably beyond me?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] KryptosXLayer2:
PLEASE and THANK YOU!!! I have to find some way to go back to stock!!! As Peter knows already, any modification to the Gmail app screws up the notifications on Nova Prime, so I don't see the unread count and also can't see the screen in the unnaturally bright FL sun - it has been 102 deg F every day for the past week, so there isn't a cloud in the sky and I can't read crap on the top and bottom of my Gmail on the phone!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PMentior:
You need to copy the files to the system/app folder and then change the permissions. In root explorer there is a little thing that will say "mounted as R/O" then "mount as R/W" in a box right next to that. You need to hit the "mount as R/W" to be able to set permissions.

I hope that makes sense.

---------- Post added at 10:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:42 PM ----------

IMO... the stock camera app is a TON better than this aokp camera app. the stock one has a load of features to use.

my overall thoughts after reading through 20+ threads.. stock camera/sms/gallery should be included. i liked dietICS cus it was as close to stock as possible. really not a fan of the new sms, cam, and old gallery.

just my opinion.

i wasnt able to get the stock sms/mms working either. got the same errors as everyone else. unfortunately, im gonna revert back to the previous rom im using. hopefully things get sorted out. :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PMentior:
You can change these all back to stock in just a few minutes. PeterGuru is even making it easier with some flashable zips that will to the work for you.

I personally love the sms/mms app so I kept that but not really into the new camera or gallery so I swapped in the old ones. Whats great about DietICS is all the help and support. Most other devs just tell you to use what they give you or find something else (just my experience over the last year on xda).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mixxy:
You're right, EXCEPT restoring to the stock sms/mms (and by stock here, i mean Samsung's original sms/mms apk) is not currently working. When you replace the app in system/app, even after setting permissions correctly, the app crashes everytime on boot, and anytime it is to be used.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Yze:

These are the steps used by me on the LATEST Diet ICS 7.20. Can you please list yours step by step?

1.) Download Secmms.apk from first post

2.) Rename AOSP apk to Secmms.back

3.) Using ES file explorer, copy and paste the Secmms.apk downloaded from first post to system/app directory

4.) Reboot, clear cache and dalvik cache

Result: on system start, "unfortunately messaging has stopped working" message is displayed. After that, everytime you start the app, it results in an app crash and the same message.
