custom user agent

Can anyone tell me what custom user agent actually does in the messaging app? I searched and couldn't find an answer

I seem to be getting screen flickering with animations (mainly in flipboard when flipping through articles and with animating icons like the loading icons).

The only fix I can seem to find is by changing the governor to performance, but I thought I remember reading a while back that performance shouldn't be used as a daily governor. Is that true?

I've Never had this issue before with prior releases. Any suggestions?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 1weener:
The performance gov shouldn't be used at length because it sets your CPU at max. Doesn't your phone get hot? You do run the risk of burning it up if you leave it that way for extended periods of time.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bdithug:
It does get hotter much quicker with performance governor. Right now it's the only thing that seems to work to fix the flickering at certain times.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 1weener:
Have you tried reflashing the ROM with a clean install?

I have no flickering (even at 189MHz) and don't see other posts about it being a problem. Have you confirmed that there is no hardware issue with your phone by seeing if another ROM also flickers?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bdithug:
Yea I did try reflashing with the same results. And I always do a clean flash for this reason. Can't troubleshoot problems with a dirty flash. I really only use tasks rom so I can only compare to prior releases. I was on 4-19 up until about a week ago. Tried the 7-9 with no issues as well so I upgraded to the latest yesterday and this is the only issue I seem to have.

The only other thing that seems to fix it is by increasing my MPU voltages by 75.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aeppacher:
Quick question, I love how smooth and stable this ROM is, but I hate having to look at Tasks underwear everytime I boot (sorry if you read this). How can I edit the boot image to prevent this?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Search before posting please. This has been answered too many times here. You can change it by compiling your own kernel. Otherwise just live with the 1 second it shows for.

If you guys reboot your phone enough for that to bother you, you should just switch ROMs.

hahahah yeah like I said, the rom is awesome man, keep up the great work, its just I sometimes boot at work and my colleagues give me the strangest looks. I just wanted to know if it was as simple as a file swap in a root browser
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Glad you like it. Switch kernels. A search before posting would've told you that. Please always follow XDA Rules and search before posting. ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aeppacher:
Yeah, I was posting here to see if there was a way to keep the kernel but modify the boot picture. Sorry thought this was the place to post that type of question

Maybe its time to finally learn how to build
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Yes this is a Q & A thread. But that doesn't excuse the fact that XDA Rules should be followed. One of those rules being that you search before posting. Your question has been answered so many times in this thread that if you just simply searched prior to posting you would've received you answer without even having to post here. Just search first. It's simple.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 1weener:
Well this kernel is under-volted by default so +75mV is certainly doable (you probably only need to raise the lower frequencies by 75 since they are undervolted more. Some of these kernels have 1150mV as the lowest voltage). And it's a MUCH better solution than running the Performance Gov!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bdithug:
Thanks. I'll give it a try for a day with +75 and see how it goes.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ViciousDiarrhea:
I've been having an annoying bug recently, car mode keeps turning on and off. I'm not connecting it to any dock nor is there a USB connected.

I tried a clean flash and it just returned after a few minutes. I also tried the official AOKP and it still occurred. Then I tried Paranoid Android and it didn't happen so I'm thinking it might be something with AOKP in general.

I'll do another clean install and provide a log, just wanted to throw it out there in case anyone else is experiencing it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gsm22:
Really weird issues with sound on the latest release. I get no sound whatsoever (not even screen lock or volume adjust sounds) after full wipe and system format, but the strange part is that it worked briefly after a dirty flash from a March build and then stopped altogether. (I did make sure to flash the new bootloader beforehand) That was when I tried the full wipe, but still had the same issue.

Winamp crashes immediately whenever I try to play a file, and DSPManager also crashes randomly. Clearing data for DSP didn't help either. :(

Checked quiet hours, muted/unmuted etc. No dice. Logcat attached; the events related to sound were generated each time I pressed the volume keys.

So far so good with upping my voltages. No screen flickering anymore, everything smooth as butter.

Thanks for such a great smooth rom. Makes the gs3 worth keeping a little longer until I find my next device. And thanks for continuing to support a device that you may no longer use as an every day device. I know you have a gs4 but am not sure how often you use this device. Either way, huge thanks, and don't let the unappreciative kids who troll your threads disencourage you.

This is really annoying, I have to restart the phone at least once a day to get all my contact back, and all my call logs get delete.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
You do notice that you're the only one having this issue don't you? I've never seen anything like this happen. In would fully wipe your device, redownload the ROM, and then flash it. If it continues. Find out what app or setting that could be causing this.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] fvargasfrank:
i did just that with the newest ROM, I saw an error that Google sync was not able to sync with the phone after the crash. I will delete all the apps and report back once i find which freaking apps is the one causing this, may it can help someone else in the future.

I cannot turn on WIFI after falsh AOKP

I am with Rogers, did exactly what instruction said, wiped everything, including format the internal storage before flash the lastest AOKP.

after reboot, everything looks good. However, cannot turn on Wifi no matter what I do. the Wifi toggle button (first one in the Settings) won't allow to switch on

I can only use Mobile date now

Please help. Many thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rbedell:
Redownload if necessary.

Format system and everything else besides storage.

Reinstall ROM.

Do not restore any apps.

You are doing something wrong or it's an app.

Task, same issue as before with no boot after app restore. Different device. Tried updating recovery, pulled every ounce of data off the device and full wiped it. reflashed, let google replace the apps. did nothing else but that.. what I thought to be funny was even after a full on wipe.

the lock pin was the same as it was before the wipe.. any thoughts on that?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 1weener:
If you still had a pin in place after a wipe... it wasn't a full wipe.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Use a recovery that actually wipes.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rani9990:
Did you check the restore tick mark while going through setup? That could be restoring your lock password as well.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Chr0nicDreamz:
I was not the one flashing it. My buddy over here was. Just replaced his recovery, wiped the entire device and now he is going to be pulling his TiBu backup from dropbox. I told him to restore APPS ONLY with TiBu. Going to see what happens when that is done considering he has 265 apps. Not sure who the hell needs that many but it is what it is. [MENTION=2928662]task650[/MENTION] keep up the great work.

Also, on a side note, anyone know of any apps that will work in conjunction with boot up to encrypt the SD card. He is asking about it but does not want to post on XDA he is afraid of getting flamed.

So after all that, it is still a No Go for him. Not sure what could be causing the issue. Maybe it's his device.

Have you tested to see if the ROM works correctly before restoring the apps from TB?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dizzle91:
Been having same issue for the last three builds..the only way i have updated is by dirty flashing..i know its a issue with a app from the flashable .zip made on TIBU that causes me getting the boot loop i just haven't pinpointed the app yet..making a new zip minus one app per zip is very time consuming..it would be nice to have a fresh clean install but i haven't ran into any bugs with the rom as it is..great job on the rom task..i cant find any other rom that can replace this one!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 1weener:
You shouldn't assume that you know what the issue is. The very first rule if you have an issue is to clean flash. Boot looping doesn't sound like an app to me.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dizzle91:
It may not be then..i am open to any suggestions that could help..i work two jobs, 7 days a week and have a sixth month old baby who's cutting teeth so its hard for me to just sit down and troubleshoot the problem for very long. Maybe when i take a couple days off my jobs i will be able to find a solution..
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mikecantreed:
Didn't even know you could restore your apps from a flashable zip. That zip is probably corrupted. Just restore your apps the normal way.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dizzle91:
Yeah its a feature available in the pro version only ( if im not mistaken ). Ive tried the regular way before, but i will try it again in between work this morning. Thanks for the input
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xsever:
I used to use it too until I started getting the stuck on boot problem. Couldn't find a way to solve.

Now I restore using tiBU normally.

Let me know if you find anything please.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rbedell:
You should restore inside the os and not flash the zip. I have no problems restoring apps but inside you can restore them one by one and find the one that is causing your issue.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 1weener:
Unfortunately I think you need to find the time to do a clean install. Test to see that it works, and then restore your apps from TB.

notifications during call

Is there a way to allow notification sounds/vibration/flashing during a call? I've found instructions for other ROMs that say to go to the dialer-->settings-->call alert-->alert during call, but that setting isn't present in the AOKP dialer. Is there another setting somewhere that I'm missing?

I use an app called missed message flasher, which allows ongoing signalling for certain notifications, but that's also being suppressed during calls.

Thanks for any insight.

Task, I tried searching this thread and can't seem to find what I am looking for. It is possible that I am not using the correct search terms though.

I'm wondering if it is possible to have the Swipe option before putting in a PIN to unlock the phone, kind of like how the iPhone works where you swipe to unlock and then put the PIN in. I believe this used to be an option but can't seem to find anything about it.

Thanks!

Would it be possible to have deeper Dark UI control? It'd be great if the Dark UI setting was a page that allowed you to toggle Dark UI for the specific apps instead of the all-or-nothing setting it is now.

But to no avail. anyone else confirm?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bdithug:

Cerberus tracking app causes reboot when instructed to take picture

Hi, I love this ROM - been with it for a long while... I am running into trouble with a single app - which happens to be very important for me: Cerberus (protection against theft)

I am attaching both logcat and device info in a zip. If someone can take a look at this - I would appreciate.

Seems like when Cerberus asks to take a photo (using the camera discreetly) - the phone goes into a slowing spiral which ends in a reboot and the task is not executed...

Any help appreciated. Thank you.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mikecantreed:
4.2 development has ended. You'll have to wait until 4.3 to troubleshoot any issues.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] alacrify:

A long shot, but do you guy(s) have "fast charge" enabled as it needs to be disabled (kernel settings or notification toggle) to connect as a storage device with a PC.
