Trying to flash v10, and have an issue I've never seen before.

Using TWRP 2.2.1, started flashing, git into Aroma, and I am at the Longpress Volume selection, and whole phone is now frozen. No touchscreen response, no buttons, nothing.

Should I do a battery pull, and go back into TWRP?????

Please help, fellow *droid fans....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kench33:
Battery pull. Happened when I flashed 9
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1ManWolfePack:
Audio seems quieter than 9. I did not install Awesome Beats.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Well if its frozen you can either let it sit a few minutes to see if it responds. Or probably just gonna have to do a battery pull. Just start over when u get back into twrp, starting with wiping.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zombieplanalpha:
You are the man. I was able to watch the battery drain before flashing that now it hadn't moved for 20 minutes

Luck favors the prepared... Get a plan

where can i find Imo's #5

I tried search i m embarrassed but can't find a link.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eakrish:
I found it on rootzwiki.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] loveubuntu:
FWIW: I installed 10 going from 9 by just wiping cache and dalvik.

Not a big fan of this installation program overlay, just old school. Great ROM though. Thanks

Does anyone know how to keep google now but have Svoice for the home double click. Everytime I double click it opens the voice dialer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Well first time I double clicked the home button, it gave me the option of svoice, google, or dialer. I'm assuming you selected dialer. So go into app manager and go to dialer, then clear the defaults. Back out and double click the home button and it should bring up the options and just select svoice now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XfrostX:
Anyone else use exchange? Still getting security notifications on it even though I put removed :/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JawaH8r:
I downloaded Home2 Shortcut from google play. You can setup what the phone does when using home double-click
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 760hacker:
Yes i have that problem. I selected the option during install to remove policy restriction however when i configured my exchange account it definitely enforced the policies.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JMink:
Going from B9 to B10 and i'm stuck. Wiped cache and dalvik, went through aroma installer and all seemed good. Rebooted and its been at the boot animation screen for 30+ minutes now. Never had this happen before...do I pull the battery?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rehpyc:
For those having any Aroma custom install menu or bootloop issues.. are you using TWRP recovery by chance?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JMink:
No i'm using Clockwork

---------- Post added at 01:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:42 PM ----------

I'm using clockwork
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XfrostX:
Yeah, I'm still looking for a fix. any luck?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RoboJoe:
Is your bootloader unlocked?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JMink:
Sorry...yes I'm rooted and unlocked. Build 9 was running great and I've had no problems flashing anything prior to this. Should I pull the battery and reboot into Clockwork...then reflash?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Toad:
I am on 10. I keep losing my status/notification bar at the top. It will come back when I Get a notification.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 760hacker:
Asside from removing any configured accounts and SECemail.apk and Exchange.apk then ADB pushing the proper .apk's, no fix that i know of. Curious if going through the installer again and selecting the option that IS supposed to enforce security will actually install the one that does not. Could just be an error in the script for Aroma. I'm sure beans will work it out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] swordphsh:
Someone mentioned a few pages back that you need to remove the Exchange account as a device administrator. I don't use it, so don't quote me on it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 760hacker:
Also experiencing this exact same problem. Reboot and no status/notification until i get my first Notification and it persists until next reboot. Hope this gets worked out in Build 11.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] swordphsh:
I've had this issue since build 1, just take a screenshot or something on boot.

On another note, my S-Memo has never worked on Beans. I get a force close trying to create a new note from the app or the widget.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RoboJoe:
You can try a battery pull, I'm pretty sure it's really tough to permanently brick a phone with an unlocked bootloader once a custom recovery is loaded.

I did the same exact thing you did (dirty flash; wipe caches only) and it worked fine.

If you battery pull and it doesn't fix, remember that you can manually get into recovery by pressing power + home + volume up until you see some blue words in the top LEFT of the screen.

You *did* make a nandroid backup right?

Edit: Apparently I don't know left from right. Fixed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JMink:
After a couple of tries I was able to boot into recovery manually. I'm restoring my nandroid backup now....fingers crossed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tdetroit:
I posted some comments about a black screen (no wallpaper) and no notification bar, unable to answer calls properly....everything is fixed now and working great. Here's what I did....after a clean wipe and install of all of my apps and configuring my 5 e-mail accounts, I had those issues...I figured that I had nothing to lose and did a dirty re-install over my existing system and all problems I had before-were fixed. Try doing a dirty re-install on top of the already existing system....worked for me, maybe it will work for those having the same issues. Been running strong for two days now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JMink:
Well I've tried restoring my nandroid twice now and keep getting "error while restoring /data!" Any ideas...not sure what to do from here?

Apex pro?

So i have looked through this massive thread to try and find anything about this but cant, so here it goes.

I had already purchased apex pro from the market, but when i install apex from Aroma i am unable to use my pro features. I also cant uninstall apex. Is there a way to uninstall the 'included' apex installed by Aroma so that i can install the market version?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] je2345:
The last 4 roms I've tried always give me a force close process.android.?.media,lol, when deleting something from the downloads app. Beans 9 & 10 and last 2 Synergy builds. Don't know if its just me but it sucks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RoboJoe:
When flashing Bean, Install some other home and install Apex the old fashioned way.

Or

Using Titanium Backup, move Apex from a system app to a user app and it will probably work. (long press on Apex in TB, it's one of the options)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Should be able to use an app like root explorer to go into system/ apps an delete it. Now before doing this, make sure you have another launcher installed since your deleting the only launcher on your phone and you need one. Then you can download apex pro.

Has anyone had any luck getting HDMI-out to work on this ROM? Tried it today, and no luck. Just getting "No Signal" on the TV for the HDMI input (and yes, I got the correct adapter). I haven't found any settings involving HDMI-out. Are there any? Seems like the problem is either the phone not outputting or the cable/adapter is broken. I know this ROM strips some of the Samsung stuff from the phone, so I'm wondering if that's the issue.

So, any HDMI experiences on Beans?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Haro912:
I haven't tried any hdmi, IMHO its pointless on a cell phone, but did you ever use hdmi while on stock?

I agreed with you when I had my DX, but I don't think its pointless on a phone that outputs at 1080p. It was never a priority, so I never tried it during the few days it was still stock. I was going to switch back and try, but I think my problem is actually in the adapter. Its making a suspicious rattling noise when I shake it...

CPU sleeper script has been proven a fraud and actually hurts rather than improves your battery. see my post at his thread for more explanation.

Can anyone tell me on the new Google Search how can I set it to search my phone only? I have gone into settings and selected contacts/apps only. I am not using the Google Now it is off. All I want to do and say "Deborah" and get that contact in my phonebook to pull it. What it does not is give me 3 web items and the dang contact I want it at the bottom...I want the contact only without the 3-web items it thinks I want??

Any advice???

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheMorlince:
Okay i have experienced another issue, this time i think it's more serious.

So i was doing fine, no issues that i can remember. I had my phone plugged into my computer, i unplugged it then packed up my computer. I put the phone in my pocket. As i was walking out of my office, i heard the phone beep like it got a text message or email. After i drove off i took out my phone and realized it wasn't on. I tried turning it on and it wouldn't come up.

Before this happened, i found that my text messaging wasn't working. The text message app would just force close every time i clicked on it.

It didn't seem like it was charging in my car.

Waited till i got home and plugged it in. Nothing, doesn't come up with the charging icon, wont vibrate or go into download mode or recovery mode.

If i take out the battery and plug it in the led will come on red, if put in the battery it will go off after a min. No buttons seem to do anything.

Beyond just installing this ROM and Kernel using Aroma i had done nothing else today. Any hope? Sounds like a hard brick to me, but i'm not an expert. I'm not accusing Bean's or anything, just thought i would start here.

Let me know what to try and i'll try it. When my wife gets home i'll have another battery to try in the phone, but i did check the voltage on the battery and it seems fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1ManWolfePack:
I read that the red light when battery is out is a sure sign of a hard brick, but like I said -- just read this yesterday...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Yeah I heard as well that the red led signifies a hard brick. That is some strange stuff right there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JPD19:
I can confirm that red LED with battery pull on wall charger = hard brick. I even tried to use a jig but no go. Had to return to Verizon. Sorry for the bad news. There is a way to recover hard bricked SGSIII without getting into download mode if you pay this one group of devs $60. Their method will save your data. Let me know if you need help getting to their site.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Toad:
Just flashed the new leankernal v0.6. When I rebooted I had no status bar until I received a text. I wiped cache and dalvik.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Has been reported an yeah, comes back with any notification. You can force it by taking a screenshot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XfrostX:
yeah i tried that, didnt work :/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheMorlince:
That's what i feared Doc, I'm not worried about the data, there is nothing on there that i was worried about keeping it's all on my external card.

The worst part about is is by the time i call them now, it wont ship till tomorrow. I dont think they deliver new phones over the weekends and Monday is a holiday so it could be Tuesday till i see a replacement. :(

At least i got my 50gb before my phone died on me.

I do wonder what caused this though, i would be very interested to find out. So, when you returned yours did they charge you the insurance deductible or just replace it under warranty? If i pay the dev's the $60 dollars does the phone work or is that just for the data recovery?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rbellis:
Do we know what cases this? Is it plugging the phone into the wall with the battery out or doing a battery pull while plugged in? I love this ROM and dont wanna change but I am kinda afraid I am going to hard brick
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Milly7:
What recovery were you using on the device?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheMorlince:
THERE IS NO EVIDENCE IT WAS THIS ROM. There is also no evidence of it being anything else either. Could have just been a bad phone that was destined to go bonkers. Again, not blaming anyone or anything. I know the risks of what I do. :)

Same here. I did uninstall it with Titanium Backup (since it's installed as a System app) But now when I try to install from the PlayStore I get Error incompatible update.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Clear play store cache and data, Reboot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Milly7:
I know you said you had the phone plugged in to computer, but what was the charge level? The beep you heard could have been the battery dying. I asked what recovery you were on because there have been issues with the inability to charge a dead battery if clockwork mod is the recovery on certain devices. I know this was an issue on the rezound and it happened to me on my Gnex. Had to go buy a battery to get it to power on. FYI, the red light will come on if plugged in with no battery if you are not bricked as well. If anything go to a Verizon store and see if you can try to power it on with a different battery first.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JPD19:
They did not charge me a deductible as it is still covered under the manufacturer's warranty. You have to pay ~$12 for 1 day shipping and ~$7 for 2 day shipping...free shipping = 5 business days. Also, the phone they give you is a refurbished phone, but my phone looked brand new. I don't expect too many refurbished SGSIII out there yet.

The dev's $60 service is found in the site below. You should watch the youtube video too to get an idea of what they do. The phone does recover to the state it was at prior to bricking, therefore, saving all of your data as well. Hope this helps.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnA8Djs55Ds

EDIT: My bad, it does NOT restore to the state it was prior to bricking...my mistake. It does however save the data in MY FILES as well as CWM recoveries, which you can then flash to the state you were at prior to bricking. I believe it also saves any TiBu you may have had on your phone.

---------- Post added at 02:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:38 AM ----------

Not sure why my phone bricked. At the time, I was on SynergyROM. I was pairing the car bluetooth with my phone, and after successful pairing, the phone just shut off. I then could not turn it back on for the life of me. It has nothing to do with Beans ROM or pulling battery during a specific time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheMorlince:
I am, correction was, using the latest touch recovery from clockwork. 6.0.1.0

My wife has an S3 as well and i tried the battery with no luck. My battery level was around 70% before i pulled it off the computer and it was only off the computer for about 5 minutes before i heard the beep o'death.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] phatmhat:
this is a great rom. really. thank you. its stable. it looks good. been really enjoying it. way more than stock thats for sure. again thanks for the work.

if its not too big a thing, i was wondering if an option to get rid of the brightness adjuster on the pull down menu could be added. also, i cant remember if it was on this rom or another, but i saw an option to use the vol rocker as a means of moving the cursor. that'd be great as i tend to mess up typing a lot more than i'd like to. :)

thanks again!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bhags8:
Been searching all the pages and can't find answer to my question. Anyways my question is: in the OP the messages icon is blue and mine is green. I want a blue one, I'm using Build 9 and I'm also a big noob(my first root and flash) so please take it easy on me.

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RoboJoe:
It's an option during installation. The Page that talks about Clocks and Sliders; the slider is referencing the brightness slider. (So, you would want an option that says "no slider")

Mine hasn't been blue since Bean 8, but I use Google Voice, which happens to match the theme already, so I switched the lock screen app to GV; so it hasn't bothered me. I'm unsure why it stopped getting themed, though.

text messages from 6250 saying " VZWNMN1"

Great ROM. Keep up the good work!

Ever since installing version 10 i keep getting text messages from 6250 stating " VZWNMN1" in incrementally increasing by one. I searched the forums and most people elude to a setting change on My Verizon. I did have backup assistance turned on for some reason so i disabled it and i am still getting the text messages. Does anyone know how i can fix the problem?....no bandaid it by blocking the number.

Thanks,

UPDATE:

So i left the phone on the charger overnight, even though i had swapped batteries with my wife. I tried to turn it on this morning and still nothing. So i uplugged it and started to put on my back cover with i felt it vibrate. Felt like a tiny beating heart trying to come to life. So i pushed the power button, it vibrated again. I held in the power button and the phone sprang to life in my hands. :)

I have since restored a prior backup just in case. I dont know what would have caused this but i'm glad i dont have to worry about waiting on a new phone. I still might call verizon and try to get a replacement sent out, i'll see how it goes.

Thanks for all the well wishes last night, must have helped.

What launcher are you using? Most launchers allow you to assign a custom icon to any app. So you would just hold the Messaging icon, hit "edit" for instance, and select an icon you would prefer. You could either download a theme with an icon you would like, or just google "Blue messaging icon" or something of the sort and select it from your gallery.

So, I looked through all apps and nothing is set to launch w/ home double tap.
