Okay, I have three questions. Just wasn't sure where to post.

1) I searched thread for OTA and got more than a dozen pages. It appears that OTA is considered dirty because there's no wipe. Is using OTA still okay for new builds of same version, i.e., 4.2.1?

2) There are app icons that are not displaying in notification bar. I checked ROM settings for icons but don't see app-specific boxes, just generic toggles. Icons appear correctly on stock rooted S3 ROM notification bar.

3) Can I still unlock phone when using T-K ROM or do I need to go back to stock ROM?

Thanks for any insight and have a great New Year. Your hard work and dedication are really quite amazing to me.

Cheers.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
1.) OTA isn't even a part of this ROM yet so i wouldn't even worry about that at the moment.

2.) This isn't a stock ROM. There is no comparison to stock in reference to this ROM. I also have no clue or anything to do with how 3rd party apps integrate with this ROM in concern of the icons you're talking about. Please read rule #7 in the OP. ;)

3.) This ROM is for att. If you unlock or try to unlock and have issues there's nothing i can do for you. I have no clue about unlocking.

@task, how's that new compilec oming? ... great work on this ROM so far! loving it. this is very OCD, but it's driving me crazy, in the 4.2 tiles could we get some consistency in the coloring of the on/off toggles. some things are white when on, others are blue... drives me absolutely nuts haha!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Huh? Not sure what you're asking here. You are more than welcome to change or color the tiles yourself if you like. But they are going to stay the way they are as far as I'm concerned. ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stevemiana:
I have no such problem on my phone all on tiles are blue and off is white.

Task...looking for a clarification on your Ktweaker kernel. I want to try it out on this ROM but the link to download the jellybean 4.2.1 version states it is for ASOP. Is it the correct one to flash?

Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Orsteezy:
Why mess with the build.prop ?? This ROM is freakin incredible stock... Thanks again task !!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] frankrocks:
For some reason, whenever I touch build.prop on 4.2 it soft bricks me. So I've been using Rom ToolBox.

But, change density back to 320, then clear data on Play Store (you can do play store services too to be safe), reboot. open up play store, accept, then change back to whatever you'd like, check play store, reboot some more if it's still not working.

I actually couldn't get it to work properly myself. So I went ahead and snagged a modded play store via http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1839871
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
I dont have a "ktweaker kernel". There is actually no such thing. Ktoonsez has a kernel. And that kernel has an app called Ktweaker to customize that kernel. So if you want support for that kernel you need to go to that thread. ;)

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dlbjmb35:
Ok. That makes sense. Let me restate my question from what information you have given me. The ktoonsez kernel link in the OP states AOSP, is that the correct kernel for this?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] daandman:
It's the latest CWM recovery (not touch), but no I can't boot into recovery. All I can do is download mode, but I don't believe Odin works with Mac. I may just need to try & find a PC somewhere.

Go grab a different gapps. I think Justin-something(?Justin bean?) has a good inverted and non inverted gapps package that had the build.prop edits fix in it. I know for sure that slim gapps has the fix. You will be leaving the boundaries of tasks rules though. I used the non inverted gapps package before and it worked great. No troubles at all.

You can't change the build.prop with stock gapps and expect no issues.

I'm not trying to be off topic, just trying to help a brother out.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eduardo_b:
OK, I'll leave well enough alone.

Wasn't comparing, actually, but wondered if Task ROM handled app icons in notification bar in a different manner, so I could include that info if I contact app dev.

ATT is supplying unlock code to me. Their instructions typically include two important steps:

3. Select Settings, Options, and then select Advanced Options.

4. Scroll down and select SIM Card

I don't see access to SIM card in Task ROM settings, so I'm guessing unlocking will require flashing back to stock.

Cheers.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CrackerTeg:
Yes. Flash back to stock to unlock. Let's keep this on this ROM so it doesn't get locked up again.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 1weener:
You're not bricked. I've done what you describe a few times. You will need to Odin your way out of it. Hint: connect to the computer and go into download mode.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] XblackdemonX:
While rebooting hold volume up+home and you will reboot to recovery. From there do a factory reset and then flash the rom+gapps. It will boot
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eduardo_b:
You will definitely need Odin, but make sure after you flash that you clear cache. I found myself in your situation after flashing ROM and still hanging after boot animation until someone suggested factory reset, but only clearing cache brought it back to life.

Not a Mac person, but I believe there are utilities for it that allow you to run Windows and apps, so you might be able to access Odin that way.

What is KT 4.1? I think you are in the wrong thread. There is nothing KT or KT referenced in this thread. This is an AOKP ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] electech13:
??? KTOONEZ!!

I am on the right thread

This was for 4.1.2 for the longest time but he recently upgraded to 4.2.1 and i have used both for long time

*****

I know what I'm talking about and where i am...i cant believe u didn't understand KT 4.1.2 and KT 4.2.1!!

Lol

The two latest iterations of his JB ROM!

*******

As the headline and title of this thread states:

######

This ROM(s) is "KToonez and Tasks 4.2.1", previously 4.1.2 jb ROM.

######

U got it now? Sorry to sound crude but just cant believe u replied with that!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
No you're not. Look at the OP. Who is that in the OP? Who wrote the OP? Who releases these builds? Ktoonsez has a kernel thread. Go there if you want support for his kernel. Otherwise i have never heard of a KT 4.1 unless you're talking about a kernel. Which is why it makes me think you are in the wrong thread.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] electech13:
I NOT LOOKING FOR KERNEL HELP BUT ABOUT THIS ROM

I just MENTIONED that my ROM which is THIS ROM is using the latest KT kernel ..

Wow...

I understand if u didn't read my whole post but if so then your response is baseless!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SlothlyDX:
You know this is actually task's Rom :p task and ktoonz collaborate on this Rom but for the most part I have only seen task respond at least. I'm am definitely confused about what happened and what is going on with your nandroids however, having too many backups are not safe haha. If you're memory starts running out, which I'm surprised it hasn't, it may start deleting stuff or slow things way down. Still weird issue
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
You don't understand yet how I cant see what you are talking about? How so. It clearly states task650 in every aspect of this ROM. This is not a "Ktoonsez AOKP" dude. It's pretty simply stated. Look at the picture below and please figure out why you would confuse me by calling it a Ktoonsez ROM.

Your nandroids are probably corrupt. You'll need to forget about them or start a thread in Q & A if you want to further discuss it. It has nothing to do with this rom. Someone might have had the same experience with this and be able to better help you. ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] electech13:
Sorry Task didn't notice it was you ...my bad but i am in the right spot...been using your ROM and KT kernel for long time and posting here long time too

I am talking ABOUT YOUR SPECIFIC ROM... BOTH THE 4.1.2 AND YOUR NEWEST 4.2.1 VERSIONS

I understand this is your ROM...but has collaboration with KT.... That is what I'm talking about

I LOVE YOUR ROM BTW AnD HAVE STATED SO MANY TIMES IN THIS THREAD

I know this is directly related to the "development" of your ROM but a strange issue i had with backup and recovery of it nonetheless and was merely curious if u or anyone else has heard of this and may have some insifht

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Don't worry about it. The thing that confused me was the reference to KT. When people reference KT in this thread it's 100% about his kernel. So that's where the confusion came into play. But either way. You can try a different recovery to see if that works but its sounding like your nandroids have been corrupted.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] enomi:
I just tried that combination and I got a black screen. I had to pull out by battery and restart a few times and change settings to get it back to normal.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] shoestar:
@pchemerys

Where are you backing your recoveries up to? Internal or External? Also, I don't think that TWRP added full support for 4.2 until their latest release, so that might be contributing to that.

Once a recovery is corrupted, there is nothing you can do about it.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Medlock87:
Things are pretty clearly stated, if you have any issues, fully wipe and reflash. Old info/apps are pretty easy to recover. Nandroids aren't even necessary most of the time. I'm not sure why this is so confusing.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eduardo_b:
Very true. Nandroids are often more trouble than they are worth. Backing up contacts is easy enough (I have an app just for this), and, as you say, apps are easily reinstalled.

Do you personally use TiBu when you went from 4.1.2 to 4.2.1? I finally have a chance to upgrade to your newest version, and don't really know if it's okay to restore apps with it. I've seen too much conflicting stuff
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
I'm not sure why it would matter restoring from one OS to another. These are all apps from the market I'm restoring. It would be the same to restore them from titanium or download them from the market. The apps don't change because we changes OSs. You're never supposed to restore system apps or data. That would cause the issues.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SlothlyDX:
Like task said, just don't restore system data. Some apps that are "not compatible" from the market can be restored and they either work or force close. Just delete the ones that force close but that's rare. I have used titanium for every restore and flash and never had a problem.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] trecko1234:
I've figured out that sometimes TB hangs on paid apps or incompatible system apps. Maybe that was the problem, the way I fix it is to install the app from the market and the restore continues as intended.

---------- Post added at 07:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:35 PM ----------

What I do is not restore any of the red apps in TB, all the other system I restore (sms messages, alarms, browser bookmarks, etc) and I've never once had a problem.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] crash822:
Using the create an update zip is the best I've found. It makes a zip file with whatever apps/data you want into a zippable file that can be flashed in recovery. It is far far faster than the normal restore method.

Although the tibu thread idea is a good one. Gonna Google around a bit and see if I can find one.

All of these toggles are good for me... It's the wording that makes them seem inconsistent. "silent" is ON, the "Rotation Locked" is ON etc.
