New To The S3

Ok so I am new to the S3 and have been told that this is the best ROM out there...I'm coming from the OG EVO and was a big time root user...My questions I have I'm sure will be easy to answer but I want to double check mainly because I am uncertain of what Odin's purpose truly is...am I to use Odin to flash roms or just recovery and md5.tar files? I am guessing to flash I will be going about flashing the same way by cleaning and then flashing through recovery...because this rom is using Aroma is CWM a usable recovery or is there a different recovery that is recommended? And last is this ROM touchwiz? becasue I have had this phone since thursday and really miss my SBC (superior battery charging) and UC/OC ability depending on my needs...Thanks for the help I'm downloading the ROM now and look forward to flashing soon its's a much larger download than any of the EVO roms lol

Am I missing something? I searched the thread. I know people usually dont respond if its a well known answer.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xblackvalorx:
It's touchwiz.

Odin is used to flash recoveries, and I'd strongly recommend flashing the latest twrp.

You flash roms straight from recovery just like the og evo.

Putting a Rom on internal storage instead of sd card flashes much faster.

If your not on jelly bean already you should flash freezas latest firmware/radios.

SBC is a thing of the past. It's actually bad for your phone.

This Rom includes a stock kernel so no oc/uv but the custom kernels that include these features are still quite premature for jellybean and are unstable, so flash at your own risk. (Best battery comes from freezas updated 11/4 kernel) which is stock so perfectly stable/ fully functioning

I just came here from the 3D so I've already scrutinized Samsung's inner works, so if you need any help feel free to pm me man.

Happy hacking.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mercado79:
can't seem to find a fix anywhere (or much mention of it to be honest), but... is there any way to force notifications to be played through the headset / headphones when they're connected?

in this post, they mentioned that it was a bug fix that would come with JB, but that's doesn't seem to be the case....or at least not on freegs3.

if it's out there in the wild, i'd love to see it implemented.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Dgsaxhitman84:
I appreciate the help as none of us want a pretty brick LOL I will look into twrp prior to my flash I did update prior to rooting last night and have been in love with this phone so far and I'm thinking I will be doing some kernel building over the next couple of weeks to get another kernel choice available! and I appreciate the idea of installing the rom from the internal because I would not have done that...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Brandonrz:
Try searching "search". Aha, only if you want to see some good rants lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xblackvalorx:
Definitely not lol. And that'd be awesome. The available kernels function much better on aosp than tw. So if your a tw fan who wants to kernel dev that'd be pretty awesome.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nuclearmeltdown2046:
No we must not !!!!!!!

So if there is going to be anymore senseless killings for god sakes let it be pigs. I just ran out of bacon and the price per pound is outrageous.

Peace, nm2046

BTW ......... This rom is pissing me off. There's nothing to fix and I'm left wanting more. ;) :thumbup: j/k

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hayzooos:
I wasn't able to get it working :(. Tried everything on default (still changed the SSID, and password) and then changed the model to GSIII in the settings. It showed up in my network list, but couldn't actually connect to it.

I was trying it from my work laptop (Win 7 x64) and couldn't get it to work. I might give it a shot from an iPad or something later tonight though. If anyone gets it working (looking at you Naddict) could you post up what your setting are? Any security or open? What boxes are checked in the Settings menu, etc.

Would be good to set it up the same way and see if that works.

Although now that I'm typing this out, I'm using the KT747 kernel so that might have something to do with it?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] evoer:
Confirmed working for me also, didn't even go into settings also running kt747
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hayzooos:
Gah, thanks for the info. I'll test it out a bit more later on and see if I can get it working.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Naddict:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Jettubby:
Can you read pal? I guess by my Sig you can clearly see that I have NO experience with this. :rolleyes:

To everyone else no programs that require root access prompt superuser for access thus won't work. "Prompt" option is selected. Superuser doesn't appear to be working. Any help would be appreciated.

Install SuperSU and see what happens.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] travisd4est:
Your questions say otherwise. :D did you try installing Su? Step one.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] treedog5:
I would suggest that you try and update the superuser app. It has been updated to version .97. this was discussed 1 or 2 pages back, there is a zip for it in this thread or you can try downloading it in the playstore.

Ok, I found the link to the zip for SU posted by ChainFire.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Jettubby:
Yes that was the first thing I did. It asked for permissions but superuser must have been blocking it. Disabled superuser...renabled it....updated it and with a few restarts it works. Wi-Fi tether is still not working after following OPs directions. Bummer

With all do respect did you search This thread for answers?

I am. :) its just that its really not that hard to either read a few pages back or search. And I'm not anon. Just because I don't have a photo of me smiling makes me anon. :eek:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nuclearmeltdown2046:
Wow...... I'm truly at a lost for words. The past ten page's of people really being harsh on others. Why ? Because some are tired of reading it ? I TRULY understand the frustration but it certainly doesn't deserve this type of response.

Team sonic thank you for putting a truly fantastic rom but the way this thread is going I pushed into not asking for help of any kind. I am human.

Peace, B
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] treedog5:
UMM. did you happen to see my post?? i answered the guys question and didn't say a word about using search. if someone said something harsh to you for asking a question, just ignore it. I'm willing to bet someone will answer your question in due time. but you got to understand how bad it gets when different ppl keep asking the same question over and over again and ppl post the answer over and over again. and then it gets asked again!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MontyPyFly:
Yes. But Jettubby just hit the Trifecta!

His first three questions in less than two hours hit three of the top most asked questions in this thread. That's kind of hard to ignore.

READ. The last ten pages at least. SEARCH Always. try google, its amazing.

If not, then you are just asking for some good hearted ribbing.

Yes we give help.... we teach about searching. (Give a man a fish... teach a man to fish.....) you get the idea.

Now, lets just see if the next question is "Android System is eating my Battery" That would be priceless:silly:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hayzooos:
I think people are getting antsy waiting for the next update to drop. Gotta remember our audience here...people are flashaholics and when they don't have anything to flash, they start getting all jittery. Like me and golf...I love playing golf. Living in the Midwest puts a damper on that for about five months out of the year. If you're into that sport, you should check out a golf forum around February. It's pretty obvious who is in Wisconsin and who is in Florida!

I'm only halfway joking, but I can see both sides of the coin. Some people read literally every post in this thread because their lifestyle or job enables them to keep up on it (like me). Others simply cannot. They see the thread, and how MASSIVE it has become, and let's be honest...the search feature leaves a lot to be desired, and they just ask a question instead of searching and trying to find what they're looking for from literally over 10,000 posts.

Do I suggest people search before asking a question? Of course. But I can't honestly expect every single user of this ROM to keep up with every single post in this thread. That's asking quite a bit considering how popular this ROM is.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ionthedemon:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hayzooos:
It got too big. I remember when this ROM first came out and it was a smaller group of users. We were saying how nice it was because people in here were actually helpful quite often and we would compare it to something like the CM10 thread where it's constant bashing, flaming, "cool story bro" crap.

The more users your ROM has, the more childish ones it has too. It is what it is.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Duce HD2:
To get somewhat back on track...I have a question about awesome beats mod: Does the mod/app actually do anything? I have beats selected under menu>settings>sound. When I enable beats from the app and select difference settings (moderate, strong effect, louder, etc) playback sound quality or loudness seem to not change at all...I use with the stock music player. Any ideas?

(Wanna be Rent-a-mods, please refrain yourselves from responding unless you have something intelligent or useful to say. Thank you.)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Shadefactor:
Only works with play music
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] treedog5:
Trust me I'm no audiophile, but i didn't notice any difference when i tried it out either. maybe if i had some beats head phones i might notice something :laugh:

Ok that would explain it then.. speaking about the prior post..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Duce HD2:
Really...had no idea. If that's the case then it explains it. Not really a fan of google's music player tho.. I was a hardcore PowerAmp believer, but after playing around with the stock one a little it's not half bad when setting it to custom and tweaking sound.. Damn I miss Voodoo Sound from my Galaxy S...it even sounded great with cheap headphones lol..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Shadefactor:
I'm a power amp guy myself I used to use play music just because of beats but its gotten bad. So I messed around with power amps equalizer andit sounds better tthan beats
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fishingmedic:
From what some peeps had said previously in this thread I believe, it's really nothing more than a fancy equalizer. I personally use the stock music player and can't complain, but then again I'm also not willing to dish out $100 or more for headphones, so maybe it's just me. There's some decent eq apps out there in play store for free even that make tunes sound great. My step son has the Evo with Beat on it and I can honestly say I can't hear a difference playing the same song with the same headphones. YMMV though
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Shadefactor:
I choose DSP over beats anyday
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hotpocketdeath:
So does anyone know of a fix to the ringtone issue where it is really quiet for the first second and then jumps to full volume all of the sudden? My ringtone doesn't work well with this "feature".

So far, searching as come up with a lot of complaints, but no fixes. I didn't notice this behavior on ICS.

And also @ Naddict: My weather information on the lock screen did eventually start to work. Took it like 2+ days to start working though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Naddict:
I know for a fact that Clark was working on the ring tone fix the other day, I would expect him dropping that fix with version 2 of his rom. That's all I can say about that.... Glad to know your weather is good...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mlin:
I think 'tired of reading' is a copout. Proper searching yields less reading and shorter time to reach the desired answer for topics already covered. However I do agree that the tone is unnecessary. We should offer helpful guidance to new comers and teach them to use the search function, not flame them.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ramondel:
I downloaded Noozxoide EIZO-rewire from the play store and it works great, you can actually hear the difference when you change the settings on it.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Humzaman:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Penvision66:
Lol, all good, is the apk downloadable? also I get a fc on connection priority and wi-fi connection settings... not a big deal though... awesome rom man
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bytes2bits:
I apologize if either of these items have been addressed already. I noticed my brightness button on the quick panel pulldown only goes from Auto Bright to non-autobright no matter which brightness configuration I choose in the Quick Panel Settings app. Also it looks like the Google Quick Search is web only (like after the "security update"). In other words it's not a universal search.

These are by no means complaints, merely observations. This rom is awesome and Clark44 is a GOD!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] clark44:
Hmm. I will get the Google search widget fixed if it is what you're assuming but on my side the widget works quite well. Auto brightness on the other side no matter if it's on or off will be enabled because Installed what is called" Best Brightness fix" which repairs the stock auto brightness levels. Should be better than normal. So don't worry about auto brightness :)

If you have 0.0.6 you can install it from there but ATM I don't have the apk. I already removed that feature in v0.0.8 :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bytes2bits:
Oh okay, now I understand about the brightness. That sounds great.

As far as the google search issue... I was referring to when I click on the google search app or even just use the google search box. It will only search web results... no contacts, apps, etc. That's really weird that it works on your end. I wiped everything possible before flashing. Any tips to get it working? I don't mind digging around with Root Explorer.
