Thinking about flashing this but had a quick question before I do so. Since I'm coming from NoSympathy's latest VRALF2 build, will I need to do a full wipe or could I just do cache/dalvik? I'd like to be able to retain my settings but I certainly understand if a full wipe is necessary for optimal performance. Thanks very much.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] blade7840:
You will have to do a full wipe and wipe dalvik for it to work properly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XooLoo:
I did too. Then also flashed Jellybomb... Let's put it this way: won't be flashing anything else anytime soon again unless a change earth-shattering good is implemented... Jellybomb did mess up my SMS which forced me to install Go SMS, which is by far the best thing I have discovered on Android! Also the generic VZW Hotspot icon is replaced with the Sprint Hotspot icon (which quite frankly is ugly) but the insides of it still looks identical to me... that is, only if you use the VZW. I have been using FoxFi (can't remember the exact name but I am fairly confident that's what's called) and it works beautifully for me. So yeah, short answer to "how is it": It's great... Go for it... Did I mention the 50GB added to your Dropbox?!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goodwidp:
Thanks very much for the response. Sincerely appreciated.

Is there something wrong with Build 5 and goo manager? I can't download. It gets stuck at about 24% every time.

Anyone else?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1Android:
also be sure you download EZ recovery from the market(It will be specific for S3). Download the V5 file and copy to your SD card. open up EX recovery, scroll to the side so recovery is now in top middle. On bottom left switch to recovery/on right pull down and switch to 6.0.1.0, hit "FLASH" and then the recovery to the right of it. this will now bring you into the current CWM. then wipe (3X) data/cache/delvick then install zip file from sdcard, reboot. once everything is up and running, then go back into CWM and flash your jellybomb if you want.

maybe you already knew all this, but I had some issues because I didn't fully understand everything. incase someone else was slightly confused hopefully this will help you with a step by step. :good:

Even with setcpu I can't stop the battery drain and heat, I don't know what is wrong, I'm going back to 3.1 for the time being. I definitely believe it's the kernel, not the rom

Anyone find an equalizer that works on this build? Awesome Beats sounds like distorted garbage, Audio FX doesn't work, and Equalizer doesn't either.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] anrichardson:
Turn your phone off for a few minutes. Then reboot, all is well. Same thing happened to me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sanjsrik:
I don't think this is the custom ROMs. I think this is the device. My device has been running hot since the day I got it. It was so hot at the bottom of the screen on stock that I had to wonder if I was doing something wrong. I thought about taking the device back in case there was something wrong.

Have there been any real reviews of this device that use it "normally" for a week or so, not one of those "unboxing" reviews or those that just have pre-release devices and don't really use them but just talk about specs?

Has anyone done any real research about overheating? Could this be "normal" for this device and no one has figured it out yet?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] p-slim:
can't find build 3.1 anyways :crying: :(

edit: I found it but i will give your method a try first

phone been set up and have rebooted for a couple hours now. seems like it is taking FOREVER to charge and I cant receive any emails. I can send but dont get anything in my inbox if I send a test. I use yahoo as my default. my gmail account is fine. If I go into accts and sync and try to remove the yahoo to start it over it says I cannot without doing a factory wipe. WTF!?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BeansTown106:
power amp works amaazing and i was debating taking the beats out and restoring the stock musicfx stuff

thats stock email for you lol.. i personally prefer aosp email but went with what the people seemed to want in the rom..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1Android:
how do I get AOSP email on?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mondoveliz22:
I had to go back down too..ridiculously hot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1Android:
this has been a WASTED afternoon!!!! got the phone all set up. email no worky. just did a full wipe and now setting up again. I think the reason my email wasn't working was when I was setting up it asked if I wanted to restore my email accounts. I pressed yes the first time which i think locked some things up. did wipe and set up new account and passed on restore, everything going through now. Now have to set all my settings up again. hoping everything will be worth it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mattydangerfox:
I use Power Amp for mp3s, but I also use Spotify and Google Music for streaming. Oh well, I'll figure it out. I would vote pulling Beats out, honestly. People always ask for it just because they think since they heard of it it must be awesome. It actually just makes thing sound terrible, IMO.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] boynamedstacy:
Think I'm gonna have to bail on this rom. My phone is getting way to hot even under clocked. I flashed every rom under the sun on my gnex and it got warm but never like this. Something is definitely wrong. No mods, completely stock build 5

wow thanks. read the last 10 pages a few times, but your post is the most organized. one problem tho: notification bar is gone even after 2 reboots. keep rebooting?

edit: i re-flashed v5, than jelly bomb again. this time it seems to be working fine. notifications and recently used apps working perfect. thanks to all devs and others who helped
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stephenj37826:
I'm on version 5. I use setcpu and create a profile for screen off 384-702. This seems to be great on battery and that is plenty fast for anything that doesn't require screen on use. Heck at that speed the CPU is still faster than a tegra 2 by far lol.

Can someone please confirm that this rom takes forever and a minute to charge.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] indyssee:
Are you charging by USB? If so, then yes, it will take forever. I have had no problems charging by outlet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Farabomb:
Charging on a computer with the stock cable trickle charges iirc. Find a charge only cable or use the plug if you want faster charging.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1Android:
Im not usb. Im talking wall outlet and it is taking forever! My buddy also on this rom also experienced the same. He was down to 9% last night at 11. Woke up tgis morning at 530 and he said he was only at 77% on wall charger.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jcurley:
That almost sounds like something is running in the back ground. Maybe a RAM clean before you plug it in. Or even turn the phone off when charging and see if it charges faster.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] p-slim:
On rom 3.1 it does not take forever to charge thru usb. I ran v5 all day yesterday with setcpu installed to underclock and there is significant battery drain and heating up on v5. The 2nd I flash back to 3.1 everything just worked better. Honestly if I'm not running cm or aokp there is no need to be running kexec kernel/recovery , I just feel like that whole experience was all bad. Beans rom was perfect while trying to make the best stock rom, but adding in custom kernel that comes stock overclocked and that recovery is just too much, especially when it made things worse (overheating and rapid battery drain)

On a side note 3.1 has to be the best rom out there and I will stay on this till samsung sends out an update, then I will find another deodexed rom to use
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] im_on_fire:
Since the Lean Kernel is now built into the newest version, I'm assuming the following will work:

How do I use USB Fast Charge?

1) Unplug from USB cable.

2) Open Terminal Emulator, type "ffc" (without quotes) and enter. This command will toggle your fast charge state.

3) Plug it back in.

Note: running the same command again will disable fast charge.

Also, when fast charge is enabled USB communication will be disabled.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlokos:
For those of you who are complaining about the time it takes to charge your phone, have you enabled fast charge? if not, follow these instructions from imoseyon:

"How do I use USB Fast Charge?

1) Unplug from USB cable.

2) Open Terminal Emulator, type "ffc" (without quotes) and enter. This command will toggle your fast charge state.

3) Plug it back in.

Note: running the same command again will disable fast charge.

Also, when fast charge is enabled USB communication will be disabled."

The phone was getting a little warm when I set at 1.9 but I dialed it back to 1.674 with no effect on performance. Battery life is great.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stephenj37826:
There is a file over at root wiki that brings you back to stock kernel from imoysens it would probably put you back on stock kernel with version 5. If I was home I'd try it out but no way until I can restore if something doesn't work out. I did use imoysens 11.1 kernel and then reverted to stock so my bet is it will work.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goodwidp:
I flashed this last night and while the phone was definitely hotter than usual immediately after flashing, I followed the advice of a poster a few pages back who recommended turning off the phone for a few minutes to see if that helped. I must admit I was a bit skeptical as I didn't know how turning off the device could lead to normal temps once it was back on, but I am happy to say that did the trick for me. My phone is still OC'd to 1.9 and even with restoring all my apps via TiBu and doing some other resource heavy activities, the phone did not heat up more than usual after that.

I definitely like this ROM so far. I thought something was wrong when every time I rebooted it almost seemed like it was going to bootloop, but then I read in the OP that it's just kexec doing it's thing. I also had some issues with FC'ing after flashing but a quick Fix Permissions seems to have solved that as well. The dropbox space is awesome to have, the phone is blazing fast (quadrant over 5000), and I'm looking forward to seeing how the battery does during a full day of usage. Thanks very much to Bean and everyone else involved in making this ROM. Your time and effort is sincerely appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hitekdroid:
It did @ first but after re flashing v5 than jelly bomb again everything is working fine! I didn't know this phone could get faster but it is. Setcpu is on to under clock it if it gets too warm. (which it got warm @ 1.5ghz. I imagine it would get warmer @ 1.9)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] appye:
Flashed this a couple days ago. I am happy with it.. it still had a bunch of stuff i had to remove with titanium backup... good to know i am running a custom rom as this is my first one on the s3... Data does its thing and the phone ... phones. Bravia and beats audio feel like placebos to me honestly...

Hmmm. Also not a huge fan of the center clock mod. I like having the clock in the center, but when I get a notification and the rest of the notification bar "lifts" up off of the screen and shows the contents of the text message/notification/whatever, the center clock is still there on top of things so the message is unreadable. Never realized how much I liked that feature until I saw this happen. Oh well.

... anyone know if there is any way to disable the local bookmarks in the browser? I like using the Google based ones, the ones stored directly to google account. It is a nice feature in ICS. At least this is the first time I have seen it.

Could you implement a way to disable screen-on when receiving a message with the stock Messenger? I can't stand GO or Handscent
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goodwidp:
Battery life after flashing r5 last night. A little over 2 hours screen time and same amount of time streaming Google Music. More WiFi than 4G and no phone calls. I'm hoping it improves in the next few days now that everything is set up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] joebob296:
All that needs to be done is to flash in recovery and it will automatically install the cm9 kexec recovery? obviously need to wipe date...etc
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goodwidp:
Yup. That's all I did coming from NoSympathy's build. Wipe data/dalvik then flash and you're good. It's mentioned in the OP that it may seem like it's bootlooping after you install (and every subsequent reboot afterwards) but that's just kexec doing it's thing so just give it a minute.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] joebob296:
So I just tried this and I get reboots into recovery saying error running rom manager script over and over agian. has anyone encountered this before? I did wipe everything I am restoring nandroid now and will try to flash it again

EDIT: THe MD5 sums matched before I flashed this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goodwidp:
Sorry to hear that. Which recovery are you using? I flashed it using CWM 6.0.1.0 and didn't have any of those issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rehpyc:
I'll be releasing a proper center clock mod as well as various battery image display mods late tonight. If you have any battery mod requests that you find from any ROM, no matter the phone, let me know.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] joebob296:
I am on v.5.8.4.9 I am redownloading it now and will update to the newer recovery. Where can I get it at in Rom Manager it shows only up to what I am on now v5.8.4.9 Does it matter whether I place it on the internal storage or the external storage?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] niv3d:
Think I'm gonna give this ROM a shot, I'm on Synergy now. Can I just use EZ Recovery to flash a kexec CWM (6.0.1.0)? also what's everyone's experience with BEANS ROM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goodwidp:
Download the app linked below (EZ-Recovery) and use it to flash the latest CWM version. That should do the trick.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mmmeff.ez
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] joebob296:
Thank you I just flashed the newer recovery. Just curious about something, a few years ago everything was centered around rom manager. I mean if you needed something downloaded or you flashed a rom that was the place to go. Now it seems like one needs a few different apps to get the same result. Its not a big deal just curious. Not bashing any devs they do amazing work and I am grateful for all of their hard time and effort they put into making our phones even better.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] faehsemc:
I was very apprehensive to try this rom. I rooted with 66 and customized my rom by removing everything and changing my launcher and whatnot, but I gotta say on R5 when I flashed it with the jelly bomb theme... I fell in love. I had my launcher and set up backed up on tibu and restored it on here no problem. Thanks beans

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lynneddington:
Actually, I seem to get a little better battery life on beans, other than that I really like both. Synergy has more themes and mods being made for it, but most of those work on beans too. Both use nosympathy base. I don't have a problem wiping and flashing, so usually whatever is newest is what I'm running, unless me or phone don't like it.

Add on: Right now I'm running beans v5, high def color theme, and orange transparent toggle mod, with imo's v12 kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kench33:
Okay, I was just curious because it seems like more people recommend beans but it seems like synergy is a lot more popular.

Here is the first of a few mod gifts for this ROM to come - clock + battery mods

In each of the mods, the battery has been centered and the AM/PM made smaller. Unlike other center clock mods made available, including my previous, notification updates WILL show w/o the clock present like stock.

Stock ICS battery image - no image needed

No battery image, allowing for just a battery percentage:

Download the zip of your choice and simply flash it while in recovery. For those that have more know-how, you can take the SystemUI.apk in the zip, mount and replace the one in your /system/app, and reboot.

*Note: Any time you change the SystemUI, your wallpaper will change. Simply change it back to what you want.

Great ROM. I do have a question for users and op. Does anyone else's screen get real dim when you're using the browser or watching a video? I can deal with it but it is kind of annoying when I'm trying to show someone a video or something on the internet. Fyi I keep my screen brightness at 100% all the time (still goes dim).... I'm always near a plug so I'm not worried about my battery.

Did you lose your IMEI/MEID?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] alexcolodner:
I have the signal problem too. I have been running 5 for a few days and half the time I pull out my phone to check messages I don't have any signal. Usually switching airplane mode on and off fixes it for the time being, but still frustrating. Other than that the rom is awesome!

One of these times with no signal, when I tried toggling data I got a message about needing to insert a sim card in order to use cellular service. I had to reboot (hot reboot did not fix this) in order to resolve. Could sim card be part of the issue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jay Evans:
It's not a bug, it's a feature. Both the browser and the video player have their own brightness settings. Look under Settings in the Apps. (you have to be playing a video to see it in Video Player)
