I'm wondering if anyone can give some insight..

I'm looking for a application password protection app that will set a password for

Nova shortcuts..

Essentially, I have a shortcut set to my performance control and I want to set a password protect..

I have tried the trial version of SEAL and I lile the popup password notification when accessing a locked app..wondering if the pro version will let me lock a shortcut on my home screen.. or any app would be nice to know of..

Thanks

Yes, it's called the themes and apps forum - open a thread there or search - I've not heard of anything like it, but it's in no way related to any ROM. Or the play store for parental controls might help. But please, not here.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rayoubi:
not the nova one that comes with the ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] AtoZ0to9:
Try apex or holo hd...

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rayoubi:
I dont want to use any other launcher. I like the one that came with AOKP.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Then you have to write the code to have the features you want for it. Otherwise use Nova.

Which recovery is recommended? I updated my cwm and now can't flash your Rom updates.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
people use CWM and TWRP.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] alacrify:
If you want to use the OTA updater, CWM 5.5.0.4, or TWRP 2.3.1.0. And you can still flash the ROM by downloading from the OP whatever recovery you have.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] solaris11:
Thanks, I'll try twrp out :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] IUH1991:
I have no idea why this occurs, but my phone is unable to obtain LTE in areas where it should. I've selected the option under settings, fixed permissions, even wiped and no improvement. Furthermore, the signal randomly drops for no reason.

I'm on the Bell network
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
you're in the wrong place for this. you need to blame AT&T for this issue. They are having outages and "technical difficulties" all over the country right now. It's most likely because they've just added a massive load of LTE cities over the last couple weeks.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] IUH1991:
I am actually on the Bell network.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
gotcha. then i would suggest next time you reveal that kinda of important information so that people can actually help you troubleshoot the issue. ;)

Looking for the mod to add blue touch effects to lockscreen on gs3 running the task650 aokp rom.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Riktar:
Hey guys,

long time lurker first time poster. I recently came over from an iPhone 4s, grew a bit tired of the same ol' apple OS limitations and jailbreaks would only do so much in terms of customization, so I came over to the Android side with my first android device, the AT&T Samsung galaxy SIII. I've been looking into Rom's and roots and came across the AOKP and have been reading into this for a couple days. I went ahead and followed instructions and how-to and got it to work but have had some minor glitches here and there that i could not really find a definite answer to other than "do a full wipe/install"

Q#1: From what I read S Beam is not supported by AOKP, just wanted to make sure that this was in fact the case and/or is there any way around it?

Q#2: I purchased Titanium back up PRO and made back up of apps and once AOKP fully installed along with G apps i attempted a full restore of apps but this appeared to create a couple of errors such as "adroid.acore process has stopped" and a flew of other process failures. was not able to use the phone. after some messing with it I realized that some of the apps such as "messages" etc are ICS files and i assumed would create problems with Jelly bean so I simply restored the apps i purchased. So far this has been working but am i doing something wrong as i am unable to load some apps like google music and the samsung music player and am forced to used double twist and other similar apps.

Q#3: When setting up lock screen i am unable to set applications as targets. Apps such as "phone", "messages/email", "dolphin browser" etc. is there a reason for that? any way around it?

thanks for the help.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] alacrify:
1. Nothing Touchwiz (i.e. S Beam) will work - ever. Check the Play store for other options.

2. You can only restore user apps - not system apps (which you apparently did). You'll have to full wipe and install again, then just restore "missing apps". And don't back up the system apps after this - it will just cause more problems.

3. My guess is that if you full wipe, install just the ROM and the included Gapps, and then maybe just let the play store install your apps, you won't have any problems with targets.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Riktar:
thank you for the hasty response!

1. I'll look into a sbeam replacement but will it be able to communicate with my wife's GS3 via sbeam on her end? or is that not possible.

2. It's what i did, i ended up just restoring the apps and not the system apps, everything seems to be working just fine.

(SOLVED) 3. I wiped the entire device along with caches etc prior to last flash and everything works but it wont even let me assign phone and other apps that are included in gapps. am i not doing something right?

edit: ended up reflashing and was able to save targets.

thank you for your help.

Okay so I've searched but haven't found an actual solution yet. Occasionally, when I receive an mms message, my phone won't want to download it. After a couple of minutes of attempted downloading, when I try to go back to my messages screen, it just says "loading conversations". The only way I have been able to get back to my messages is by rebooting. Any thing I could do to fix this stock messaging app from freezing? :/?

Ever since the 4.1.2 build I have been having reboots constantly on my phone especially when watching videos. I have tried many builds 10.26, 10.28, and even milestone 1. I am still getting constant reboots and I think the cause is 4.1.2. I went back to the 9.30 4.1.1 build and my phone has not had a single reboot and everything is perfect. Has anyone experienced the reboot problem on 4.1.2 or do you have any advice to stop it?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
dude. that's a paid app. so you're basically asking for where's here on XDA which is totally against the rules. AOKP Backup app is gone now as it doesn't work.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nonnarb:
I realize it's a paid app, but what I meant is that some apps have in-app payment systems (like Handcent's services for example), so since it wasn't in the Play Store anymore, I figured maybe they switched to an in-app payment system. Thanks for letting me know it no longer exists at all though.

you're posting this in the wrong thread. this is for me and ktoonsez's aokp. not official AOKP. you need to go post in the official thread if you want support.

P.S- No it's not fixed in their versions yet. I just fixed it in mine though. ;)

Thanks to those in the development thread that suggested running Ktoonsez KT747 kernel to help with the home button wake issue. Since flashing that kernel, the home button has woken up my Telus SGS3 100% of the time without issue. Relatively minor issue, but the randomness of it previously was pretty frustrating. Thanks!

Messaging

Hi, I am currently running the 10/31 build and have noticed that text messaging stops working. I can send texts, but do not receive them. I have done a full wipe hoping that would help but it did not fix the problem. I did notice that the signal bars turn to grey from blue when this occurs. Not sure if this is an At&t issue or a Rom issue, but any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

Edit: flashed the 10/26b rom, have not seen the problem yet. will keep you updated

Edit 2: still happened on 10/26b, not tried reflashing the G1 modem to see if that helps

I've learned that the ROM thread is not the place to ask these types of questions, but I hope this is!

There are two things I really miss from my previous phone (HTC Inspire, which sucked). If you could let me know how I can add them to my phone I'd be greatly appreciative.

1) Music controls on the lockscreen

2) Show newly received text message on the lock screen so I don't have to unlock in order to read it.

Thanks for the help. I LOVE THIS ROM!!

Stuck at AOKP logo screen...solution

I can't post in the ROM thread due to number of post restriction, but I know that a few of us were experiencing this issue.

The issue was that after the 31.10 build, even after a clean flash, the phone would not move past the AOKP logo screen. Phone would dim and then brighten as the logon would go into a loop.

I managed to figure out that mine was due to have a lock code on my SIM and so for some reason it appears that the ROM could not address the request and would start over the boot process. I took the code off, re-installed the latest build, GAPPS, kernel, etc and it resolved it perfectly!

This was frustrating the everloving **** out of me. Flashed back to stock, etc. Wiped completely, etc, only to end up at the same spot.

Hope that this is helpful to others that were experiencing this issue.

This is a brilliant ROM! Much thanks to Task and KT.

I dont see anything in any of the threads, about this but my phone calls turn into conversations with alien lifeforms, im not sure why the cell speaker gets all staticky and turns my incoming caller into an alien voice. Please, it seems to be recurring on CM10, PA, ParanoidKangDroid, and AOKP. If anyone knows how to fix it or why its happening, please let me know ASAP. i cant use my phone to make phone calls unless i start studying the alien language. Thank you.

5.8.4.7 loses the external card - and Rom Manager may work, but it's not recommended (I have seen problems, and have yet to see anyone guarantee that the problems it had on the SGS2 are gone with the SGS3).

Could this be the problem as to why I'm getting Status 7?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] alacrify:
Did you come from stock, or a different ROM? The status 7 normally (I think) means that your build.prop doesn't list the right phone (d2att). I've never seen the symlinks error before.

Nobody answered my question, so I'm going to ask it again because it's already been buried. Task says the ROM does already does these things, but it does not, and nobody has told me how I can get it to. I didn't download the 11/4 update, if that matters (so I'm on the 10/31 build).

There are two things I really miss from my previous phone (HTC Inspire, which sucked). If you could let me know how I can add them to my phone I'd be greatly appreciative.

1) Music controls on the lockscreen ( "stock music layout" option in lockscreen options does nothing)

2) Show newly received text message on the lock screen so I don't have to unlock in order to read it. (enabling quickmessage doesn't help for this, because you still have to unlock the phone in order to see the message)

I really don't mean to be a pest, but these are the only things so far keeping me from being totally happy with the S3 experience, and I'd really like to fix them.
