Mine:

1.) same

2.) same

3.) copy SecMMS.apk to system/app using Root Explorer

4.) Using Root Explorer change the new SecMMS.apk permissions to rw-r--r--

5.) Using Root Explorer change owner to Owner: 0-root and Group: 0-root

6.) Reboot

After that everything works for me.

**EDIT**

Looking over things it looks like the Stock SecMMS.apk I have is different from the Stock SecMMS.apk listed in the OP. Mine is 4.86Mb and the one in the OP is 6.48Mb

I saved a complete copy of the stock system/app directory a while ago just so I could restore any stock apks I needed.

I just tried my steps with the apk listed in the OP and it seems to work just like my stock SecMMS.apk so I don't know what the differences are. Both work on my device.

i did the same thing, still crashes for me after reboot
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bslate07:
I can't figure out how to set the ownership for the secmms.apk app using ES File Explorer. Any help?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PMentior:
I don't know. I rarely use ES File Explorer. I just check but I couldn't find anything. For all my root stuff I use Root Explorer, I know it isn't free but it seems to work the best for me.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bslate07:
I did some more searching and it appears ES doesn't have the option to change ownership. I guess I'll be buying Root Explorer. :o
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PMentior:
Root Explorer is one of the best $4 I have spent on the market besides Tasker (I love Tasker:fingers-crossed:)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] natefish:
Did That. Still getting the same messages. It also won't let me change owners. I can definitely confirm I've followed all of the instructions. Maybe it's just the S Memo apk I'm using.

Thank you for trying to help.

Is it me or does mtp and USB transfer not work in this rom as well?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PeterGuru:
More possible solutions ...

Hey guys, I'm back.

I've been working on more flashable zips. Most notable, Stock MMS and Stock Samsung Camera. Testing is going well so far. Right now it appears that the camera app is working, so you guys should be able to flash the zip file and get the stock camera that some of you want so much. Again, you should not need to delete anything in your system/app folder. The zip will do it for you. And, as before, it will perform a wipe of your cache partition and of your Dalvik cache, so you won't need to do that, either.

I'll be uploading the flashable zip momentarily.

Regarding MMS, I'm still working on it and hope to have a solution within the hour.

Peter

For JDBeitz: The camera zip is called, strangely enough, Samsung.Camera.zip. It will be uploaded shortly.

Addendum: By the way, my tests on the GMail app work perfectly. Well, from what I can tell so far. If you flash the black-themed version, and then flash the stock version, you get a working stock version, which will work with Nova Unread Count. I will be testing the black-themed version for workability with Nova in a moment.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jdbeitz:
WOW! great work peter!

I'm currently uploading all the flashable zip files you requested. :o

I'm also working on a build with stock sms, camera and gallery,
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PeterGuru:
Fantastic!

Fantastic! I really do need some people to test them. Okay, you don't all need to test all of them, but if some could test some, and so on ...

Thanks to JD and Peter for all your hard work. This is by far the best ROM I've used.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PeterGuru:
I think I discovered the problem also ...

I think I found the issue also. I am now preparing a flashable zip to go to stock MMS.

Be ready shortly.

Peter

The flashable stock camera already works, which is in JDBeitz's list of flashable zips here:

http://jdbeitz.usgalaxys3.com/Mods.Flash.in.CWM/, and then click on Parent Directory. It's in the main directory called Samsung.Camera.zip

Outgoing worked. I didn't receive the incoming.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PeterGuru:
I found this ...

In order to switch between MTP and Camera (PTP), connect your device to PC via USB, pull down the notification bar, and select the current method of USB connection in the list. It will pull up a menu with MTP and PTP.

DIET ICS is DA Bomb

690058247X885171N confirmation. Enjoy the beers fellas and thank you for your dedicated hard work. I have learned so much from this forum and glad I chose this ROM as my ROM of choice for my GS3. As a iPhone user for the last 5 years you guys have single handily converted me 100%. Also to add my $.02 I really like the MMS and gallery of the 7-20-12 zip. Hoping you can include a ZIP for those files so the users who prefer those over stock can install those instead. Thanks so much for the ROM guys. Peter beers on the way for you two man... at least a 24 pack. :good: enjoy your eve everyone!!

Thats what happens normally but in the latest Diet ICS build, i dont even get the choice in the notification bar....do u??

edit: that is so weird....im not even able to do it on the stock rom anymore...eeeek getting scared.

edit 2: figured it out....2 defective USB cables in a row. One didnt charge at all, the second one charged but no mass storage, tried original OEM cable and voila. Now i need a new usb cable
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] spyker73:
I have flashed the samsung camera.zip from the dropbox, the stock camera got installed. However, When I took some pictures, I could not open the gallery, it waited for a few seconds and then it says "unforturantely, the camera has stopped working".

Do I need to copy the SecGallery2.apk into system/app?

PS: There is already an existing SecGallery2.apk inside system/app and I have installed it, rebooted, but still getting the same problem.

Any idea?

Love the rom!...but

When I try to copy a zip from my PC to my phone I get the following error:

Cannot copy Item

The device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected.

I tried different cords and different ports but the error remains. I also can't find the USB mass storage mode under settings->more settings ->USB utilities. It is also worth noting it is only files with the zip extension. I can rename the zip files to apk and then they transfer fine.

Anyone else or is this just me :confused:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jdbeitz:
its just you lol. make sure your drivers are updated and restart your box. if all else fails, uninstall drives, get new usb cord, get new phone. in that order :rolleyes:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Johnny11:
Thanks. Looks like it was just bad download of 7.22.12.

There is no USB mass storage option though right?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jdbeitz:

It has worked for me with music player, gallery, email and camera app and you don't even need to change any of the permissions.

jd! the link on your op is broken cus you didnt add the .zip at the end :)

i was able to go to the direct site and get the link from there, just lettin ya kno. downloading know, and THANKKKKK YOUUUUUU for supplying a version with the stock apps. as a dev, that makes you even more awesome because you listen to your users. downloading now. cant wait to flash this bad boy.

Although I didn't know this, it seems the gallery is connected to the camera. I will modify my Samsung.Camera.zip file to include the stock gallery. Perhaps this will solve the issue. It should be ready later this morning. EDIT: DONE! See below.

Peter

---------- Post added at 06:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:36 AM ----------

Okay, there will soon be three new flashable zip files.

1) A Revised Samsung.Camera.zip, which includes the stock gallery, and it works!

2) A stand-alone stock gallery zip (Gallery.Stock.zip)

3) A Stock EMail zip (EMail.Stock.zip) EDIT: Hold off on this one ... not quite working yet.

For JDBeitz: All three are in the process of uploading now to our DB folder, sub-folder Mods.Flash.in.CWM.

More to come ...

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jdbeitz:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] AtoZ0to9:
So after reading the past few pages and seeing that the IMEI possibly disappearing could be from not flashing away from CM10 properly I went ahead and decided to go back to AOKP from CM10 using my own flashing judgement to see if it would kill my IMEI... it is still intact... my steps:

3-Button into recovery not the power menu

Wipe Data / Factory Reset

Wipe Cache

Wipe Dalvik

Flash latest AOSP kernal from ktoonsez

Reboot Recovery

Flash latest AOKP from Task650

Flash inverted gapps

Reboot Recovery

Flash latest AOSP kernal from ktoonsez

Wipe Cache

Wipe Dalvik

Fix Permissions

Reboot system now

All is well...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PeterGuru:
I'm glad to hear it went well for you ...

I'm glad to hear it went well for you. Although I did lose my IMEI on my previous device, it will not deter me. I think, with greater vigilance, losing it again may be an extremely rare event.

I do like the AOSP look and performance but, right now, I'm committed to the DIET ICS ROM. Only time will tell.

Peter
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] AtoZ0to9:
I have an idea that possibly its due to having a non Sammy kernal and flashing a Sammy rom... the rom doesn't include a kernal so that would make sense... having cm10 then flashing this rom without a kernal in between... so I would suggest to everyone if your going between Sammy aosp and cm10 be sure to flash a an appropriate kernal first if its not included in the rom flash...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PeterGuru:
In the meantime ...

I almost forgot. I also have two flashable zip files to change the theme of your Settings. One is blue and the other is a stock appearance.

STOCK / BLUE

Settings.Stock.zip

Settings.Blue.zip

P.S. For JDBeitz: The flashable zip for the AOSP Camera, Gallery, and MMS is now in our DB folder with a file name of AOSP.Camera.Gallery.MMS.zip, and it's working.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] malinois16:
Here is what I did

This is the process I used coming from cmd 10, due to me wanting everything working for work today. Restore nandroid of stock rooted plus all the apps I commonly use, reboot, flash Diet ICS, advanced retore, resore data, reboot. No problems using this method numerous times for me.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PeterGuru:
v7.22.12 works great ...

Just flashed v7.22.12, and it's working great. The stock gallery, camera, and MMS are also working great.

Given this information, and rather than wasting more time trying to solve the Stock MMS issue, now that's it's working on the new ROM release, what I will do is simply prepare a flashable zip to change to the AOSP style MMS. If people want stock, it works, and if they want the previous version, I'll prepare a zip for that. Keep in mind, though, that once you change to the AOSP version, you may not be able to go back without re-flashing the ROM v7.22.12.

I'll keep you posted.

Peter

P.S. The only thing that doesn't seem to work in the latest release, from what I can see so far, is the stock EMail app. While it's in the ROM, it does not show up in my app drawer. :(

Addendum: My efforts to prepare an overall BLUE theme flashable zip is working extremely well. I'll have screenshots for everyone shortly. :) By the way, once all the flashable zips are working well, I will prepare another very detailed post with links to them all. Then, we can simply refer to that particular post when anyone wants them.

---------- Post added at 08:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:14 AM ----------

Okay, as promised, here are screenshots of a few things.

The first one is to confirm that, if you flash the latest ROM, version 7.22.12, which works incredibly well, you will get stock MMS. Fortunately, the flashable zip to change to AOSP style is working perfectly. So, here are the two screenshots:

STOCK MMS / AOSP MMS

If you flash the flashable zip entitled BLUE.Theme.zip, here's what you get. Standard images from ROM v7.22.12 on left, and BLUE on right.

As I mentioned earlier this morning, all flashable zips should be ready sometime this morning, at which time I will prepare a new, detailed post with all the links.

Peter

Addendum: I'm currently working on the following, if anyone's interested:
