I will look to sort out any niggles people have with the phone, so I guess auto brightness will be high on that list.

Most "performance" enhancements are kernel based, and this Rom had a solid kernel in ninphetamine.

Welcome, Lenny.

Nice to see one more awsome Rom for S3, the good names just keep rolling in for this device..:)

And +1 on that Brightness fix :)

Minor version bump coming as soon as I can upload with the Cell Standby value fixed.

FYI, when I have time (hopefully this weekend) I will be rebasing to the new UK LFB base that went out via OTA to unrooted people today.

Seems like Samsung have added a few minor UI fixes, stability tweaks as well as a few new features (to be confirmed)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sstanton86:
I haven't heard about this new update! Sweet! Looking forward to it mate :)

Only 4 pages what happened to the Villain Rom rush! Haven't tried yet.. need more feedback guys!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Andrewtst:
Probably will try it when it release using XXBLFB base.

Now this ROM is base on LF2 (I know it is the latest UK ROM when this ROM is release, but it is just kind of too old for that time). So I believe that is the most reason people skip.

Beside the baseband & CSC, it seems not really big different the ROM from which country, all is same.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Ariozo:
Is alot off nice devs. for the s3 so guess folks have hard time chose..:)

Same goes for kernels, few big names so many jump around and try...

[Galaxy S III Android Development] sstanton86:
Being from the UK myself I'd rather support a UK dev. Also means I don't have to faff about with flashing modems/CSC as it's all optimised for me.

Looking forward to the new update mind :victory:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] colatehjorth:
I have a problem with CWM manager when using this rom.. if i click reboot to recovery or download it does not react at all.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] danarama:
Why not just try it and add your feedback to help others? Rather than wait for everyone else's feedback.

Its a stock based ROM, so not much can go wrong.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] dlads:
Flashing this tomorrow, the villain team gave my Hero superpowers a few years back, it's still alive :) although the battery is almost definitely dead.

768Mhz out of that little mother, I was one of the lucky ones who could get the clock that high, ah how phones have changed. :)

Good to see villain on SGS3 ;)

PS: Holy s*** @ the download speed, 5.5MBps !!! I like.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kaibosh:
Awesome - loved VR on my GS2, and was nearly wetting myself waiting (hoping!) for a GS3 release..

Everything is right in the world again!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] giajp:
i'll try it with next release, great team, thank u!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lennyuk:
Next release is in the process, had nfc issues so had to pull a release I had planned, think I have fixed it now though (or getting close)

and for those of you wanting more feedback, did you ever stop to think that the fact there is not much on here means there was nothing wrong with the rom? :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JieeHD:
Any feedback on the OTA app would be much appreciated. Bugs, features you'd like to see etc.

*goes back into hiding*

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lennyuk:

I'll be checking out your rebase when thats uploaded.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JieeHD:
http://twitter.com/jordancraig94

Check my recent images to see how it's looking, but if anyone wants to test updated versions of it, feel free to ask me on twitter and I'll happily provide you with a bleeding edge build :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] danarama:
I'd love to, but I'm not a twitter. Can I pm you my email address?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JieeHD:
Sure
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lennyuk:
Ok some information on the upcoming new build

Firstly JieeHD and myself have decided to include a beta version of the OTA app, this is largely so you can see what it will look like and what it could do.

Please leave feedback for it here or PM jieehd with feature reqests.

You will be able to download tweaks from the app (or even update from V1.0.1 to v1.1.0 if you install the apk on your existing rom, but the app cannot yet flash for you so you will have to manually do so after downloading.

The rom will not at release include lockscreen NFC, I have not had time to decompile the new nfc.apk and make the changes but as soon as I can this will be an availiable tweak.

all other 'fixes' in the previous roms will be included here.

I plan to include autobrightness 'fix' as a tweak

I plan to include "on screen buttons" as a tweak

an incremental version may be out soon after release to include bootanimation.zip functionality.

I hope to have this uploaded either today or tomorrow, but I do have a personal life to live, and work full time in the day.... so..... who knows.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] noobandroid:
yaa, coming back to good old villainrom that i used since some long time ago on older device (gingervillain desire)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] danarama:
Just to confirm, is this going to be with standard toggles? Not sure why but I like standard more than 15 toggles
[Galaxy S III Android Development] danarama:
What happened to RichardTrip? Still villain?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lennyuk:
Yes standard toggles and yeah Richard is still about too
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kartalgurhan:
Dear OP,

Mobile ODIN v2.45 is not working on this ROM. I tested many other ROMs with success.

any advice?

regards
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lennyuk:
This rom is not in an Odin format, it needs to be flashed in Clockworkmod recovery
[Galaxy S III Android Development] noobandroid:
is there any plans to implement a taskbar toggle like the "15 toggles"?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lennyuk:
I will make a tweak for this, but it will not be included as default.

Not sure on ETA, might be as soon as the rom is out, might be soon after.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kartalgurhan:
Sorry , I think my statement wasn't clear. Here's is the problem:

- I flashed the ROM successfully in Recovery mode ;-)

- I installed Mobile ODIN 2.45 (paid version)

- I ran Mobile ODIN and tried to install a different Modem

- Normally, the program should have rebooted into recovery and do the job but it didn't.

Same problem for both 1.02 and the previous one.

please advice.

thank you.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lennyuk:
I had this issue with LFB generally, mobile odin doesn't seem to pick up the recovery to auto-reboot, reboot the phone manually after using mobile ODIN and it should flash.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lennyuk:
Uploading now! :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] danarama:
Yay...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] danarama:
May I recommend "Virgin Media" ?

;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lennyuk:
shhhh, I can't get virgin here, I have sky.

My upload speed is not too bad but a 700mb rom is a 700mb rom.

Upload has finished just need it to be pulled to the sever and proper links sorted.... hopefully it will be soon
[Galaxy S III Android Development] danarama:
No worries. As the Americans would say "I'm breaking your balls".
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lennyuk:
Go get it! (tweaks will follow shortly)

Vr 1.1.0

Rebased to LFB (latest UK official base)

Ninphetamine 1.2.0 Kernel (based on LFB sources)

All previous fixes (Lockscreen NFC will now be a tweak)

Updated apps

Beta VillainTools app added, app has no icon yet and is in /data/app - This app can not yet flash any downloads you will have to do so manually. - App attached below too if you want to use it to update to VR1.1.0 from previous build.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Salival:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lennyuk:
two app pack links are up, should be in the ota app soon too (villain tools)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] samerc:
Downloading :D

Its my first time trying villainrom, but i have heard nothing but good news about it. :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JieeHD:
Just to let you all know, I'm aware of the bug which causes the app to load the same bug and tweak in the lists. There will be an issue whereafter rebooting after installing the new version causes the app to FC. I have a fix for it and will be pushing an update tomorrow night.

If you notice any other issues please do not hesitate to PM me or reply in this thread.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lennyuk:
From now on (unless there are any quibbles with the rom) I will start to focus on tweaks for this rom, these will appear as an update.zip in the OP as well as in the OTA app.

So far I have planned:

- Lockscreen NFC

- Autobrightness Tweaks

- Nexus like Touch Screen Buttons

With some others further down the line.

If there is anything you specifically want, then let me know.

ATTENTION

Edit: I may have included the wrong kernel with the rom (a test build rather than final) if you open the VillainTools app the first thing that should display is the kernel name, if this does not say 1.2.0 then please flash this from:

Odin/Mobile Odin - HERE

CWM - HERE
[Galaxy S III Android Development] CamoGeko:
You would be correct, VillainROM was a monster on the S2. :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lepri13:
possible bug

flashed 1.1.0 then new kernel, no sound on calls.

I can hear but noone can hear me have 2 SGS3 this have happened to
[Galaxy S III Android Development] danarama:
Sounds good. The ROM is a good base and should only need to be updated if there is a major firmware release or fix to apply.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lennyuk:
Hmm, strange, you are the only one to report this so far, and (I just tested again) but my phone is working fine?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lennyuk:
I will add this to the download page too, but you need to be on the LFB radio to get mic working in calls

CWM flashable .zip

ODNIN/ MOBILE ODIN .tar
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lepri13:
fixed

All fixed, feed dumb usually figure stuff like that on my own. Thank you
[Galaxy S III Android Development] danarama:
Just quick request,

Could you supply 4-in-1 reboot menu as a tweak please? The one where once you press "restart" you have the options there (not the extended one, but maybe that too) please?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] inffy:
This would be a good addition in my opinion :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] locoboi187:
Can't wait for the OTA function for your ROMs. Helps out BIG when your phone is international and you're in America where there are no firmware updates for my region. Also helps make things less complicated for my GF haha. Really can't wait:)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] aquariuzism:
Haha! Was about to request this one too. Everything with this ROM flies! Really smooth but the CWM app in my phone doesn't work. When you try to press reboot(recovery/download/normal), nothing happens. I had to do it manually. Can someone please confirm it. I didn't change anything in the ROM(V.1.1.0).
[Galaxy S III Android Development] doree:
I can't boot into Recovery from the CWM app. Is this ROM or Kernel related?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lennyuk:
well technically it is a rom issue, but not VillainRom, its an issue that has arisen on the LFB base rom.

Asking it to reboot in CWM app then manually rebooting the phone should send it to recovery, or download the app QuickBoot from the market, that still works.

Mobile odin is the same.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] inffy:
Strange...because on other LFB base roms CWM Manager works without manual intervention
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lennyuk:
well I will look into it then, but on Stock LFB it certainly didn't work.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] inffy:
Don't know about stock...didn't use it more than 5mins :)

and there seems to be a new Samsung firmware for i9300 on samfirmware (BLG1) :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] maximoz:
I flashed cfroot 6.4 and Franco v9 both cwm works though.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lennyuk:
maybe it is related to the LFB kernel sources then

Regarding LG1 - this rom has only been released in Asian countries so I will not rebase this rom to it. If/when its out in Europe or more specifically the UK I will use it.

Unless of course it has some exciting new features, but I have not heard anything.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] otto_di2:
Is it only me?

I have some problems using the camera on the V1.1.0 ROM? Can't use any settings or se whats going on, the screen is just black :-S

Any update on teh Villain Tools app?

When an update is pushed, does having removed it prevent that? I removed it as I got "upgrading android" after every reboot.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] locoboi187:
Whenever I go to my app drawer I always get a villian toolkit FC. I didn't even hit the app itself in the drawer
[Galaxy S III Android Development] squeeish:
I keep getting a random gapps has forced closed error too. :) No logcat for now.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lennyuk:
Interesting points, not had and issues with the villaintools apps myself. If you remove it you won't get push notifications, but remember it's only a beta that's why I stuck it in data app so if you had issues you could remove it.

Rootsu so removing the app stopped the upgrading message you were getting?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] locoboi187:
My villiantools app is just a black screen when I try to go on it and then FCs once again but this time in the app. I took proper steps flashing this ROM as always, even wiped and flashed again after the FC but still persists
[Galaxy S III Android Development] danarama:
It did. It was on the latest version packaged with the rom that fc. The one I already had was fine
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JieeHD:
For the guys having issues with the toolkit FCing, it's not your fault. It's all mine, I've found the source of the problem and will post a fixed build tomorrow.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] locoboi187:
Can't wait :)

The villain tools OTA app. I had to uninstall the broken version as it was causing me startup issues. Without it, I can't receive push updates of the app. So I'm wondering how far along the update is
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JieeHD:
Yeah, sorry been a bit behind with the app due to work and Jellybean for the Note taking up all of my time. So far I've only been fixing small bugs here and there, the start up bug should now be fixed. Please let me know if you find any others.

I've attached the updated version to this post.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] exgtigsr:
BIG Thank you Lennyuk and the Villain Team UK (good luck in the olympics as well) :fingers-crossed:

I've been using Villainrom 3.0 on my SGS2 for the last 1 year, and its solid as a rock!

Today on the 2nd day of using my SGS3, without hesitation I flashed it to VR V1.1.0 :D

I got 2 questions though:

- Is Jkay still doing his thing..? really miss his theme work like for SGS2... VR 3.0 + Jkay was da bommmb

- I can't seem to restore any of my Titanium Backup apps from SGS2.. i just copied over the whole TB directory into SGS3... downloaded the TB again from PLAY.. the TB list all the apps from SGS2 but, the restore will always just hang...

Sorry bout the later question on TB, nuthing at all to do with VR team.. ;)

Looking forward to a stable solid life on SGS3 with VR Team again.. (a Jkay mod will make it the perfect and beautiful ROM again)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] danarama:
Tb you need to use the option in preferences for backup folders

S.O.S! no voice on the phone speaker..

S.O.S !!

hi all,

just notice this morning, that my voice is not going through the phone in a call :crying:

receiving a call, i can hear the caller just fine but my phone speaker doesn't relay my voice

its the same if i'm making a call out..

thought it was the nippo kernel, but i switched between the Ninphetamin3-test-1.2.1.tar.md5 (camera fix) and Ninphetamin3-release-1.2.0.tar.md5 (Stable ROMs LFB or newer)

but that does nothing other than affecting the camera :(

i confirm that my phone speaker was working fine prior to flashing VR

anyone encountered this before?.....
[Galaxy S III Android Development] danarama:
Eh? I don't understand. You shouldn't hear your own voice in your own speaker should you?

If you're having mic issues, ensure you have the lfb modem as posted by Lenny earlier in thud thread
[Galaxy S III Android Development] planetj:
I'm on VillainRom, and I just noticed a problem. I can't use my camera anymore. When I try, it says "can't connect to camera".

I first noticed it, when I installed Barcodescanner. When I opened the app, it said, it couldn't contact the camera. Then I tried the camera app, got all black screen. Had to push home button.

Then I went to settings/apps, and cleared data for Camera. Now it sometimes says it can't contact camera, other times, it opens camera, but it is all black, and i can't press any buttons or anything. Have to push home again. Phone will freeze for a while, then it'll work again.

I have also installed Camera ICS from market. When I open the app, it says no contact to camera.

Camera has worked just fine on Stock ROM, SlimICS and Cyanogenmod.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] danarama:
Reflash the ROM? Factory reset?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] exgtigsr:
Yup.... my bad.... i totally overlook the modem part... :silly:

haven't flashed a ROM for almost a year since VR 3.0 on my SGS2 (excuses!! haha)

I did a stock firmware LFB and only then noticed the baseband is LFB instead of LFA..

after that flashed back to VR..

now everything is back to normal :victory:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] planetj:
I did wipe everything before install.

Now I wiped again, but still no luck with the camera :/

I have changed to Omega now, so I could have my camera back. I'll try this rom again later on, see if the camera works for me then.

Still think it's a good rom, though. I just need to have my Camera. Keep up the good work, dev.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] exgtigsr:
i had the same camera issue...

villain is using nippo's kernel... for those with camera issue, u need to use the "fix" kernel...
