System Settings > ROM Control > Hardware Keys: set back key long press to kill.

Thanks for trying to help me. I ticked "kill app" but it doesn't seem to do the trick.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gauthier81:
You have to check off the first option on that page as well, called "Customize hardware keys". Then go to "back - long press" and select "kill app". This may require a reboot to take effect.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] barbo:
YES! Thank you!!!! (duh) and didn't need a reboot.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] adrock74:
Man I'm really liking this. Built in animations nice. My battery life is on par with every other rom I've tried. Looking forward to 3rd party kernels.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] thecapitalr:
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can not boot into my phone any more after flashing this. Was running liquid smooth with the latest cwm installed. Did a clean install of this rom (wipe data, cache, and system then flash rom and gapps) and everything went fine.

My phone will not get past 'initiating swagger'. It is stuck there (the animation still plays it just doesn't get past ).

To make matters worse I cannot reboot back into recovery. I have held the power and volume down button and it will not boot back to clockwork.

Can anyone give me advice on how to get back into recovery ? Any help would be much appreciated.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bdithug:

sound options

I may simply be overlooking this but I cannot seem to find the option under rom control. Any help is greatly appreciated.

In the previous build, I had enabled an option that whenever I pressed the up or down volume controls, it would bring up the volume slider bar. However, there was a button next to the slider to adjust all volume preferences (Ringer, Notification, Alarms, etc.)

I cannot seem to locate this in the new kitkat build. Any ideas where that might be? I found the option in sounds but I was hoping for an easier way to access it.

Thank you!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bdithug:
I couldn't find that option either. It's called expanded volume controls I believe. I'm pretty sure it will find it's way back into the rom eventually. It's probably because it's a new version of Android.

FAQ Updated

The FAQ has been updated. I dont't have this phone anymore but will continue to follow the threads and try to keep this updated. As always anything new is in bold Red and the Date in title will be the day it was edited.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] theramsey3:
I can't read half the stuff in the first post shows black instead of red. A few things are red but almost everything black and I run the dark theme xda App. Guess I will change themes for a bit to read everything.

Edit: read it switched back to dark theme. Thanks for a well laid out post, gonna hold off on kitkat for a bit. At least till some bugs are worked out.

I'm getting the dreaded status 7 error trying to update with cwm. From what I've read, LK3 is fine which is the bootloader I have.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
You don't even know what bugs are present if you havent used it. This isn't an OEM ROM or a nearly finished product or anything. And it never will be if I have anything to say for it. This is a ROM for people to use and help make it better. So if you're waiting for bugs to be "worked out", then why are you here posting about something you are not helping (by using this ROM) to contribute to furthering the development of? Ive only released one update so far. So it seems to me that you just want conversation or something from your post?

P.S- Please don't take this personal. Its not intended to be that way. I just know that I release these Roms for the community to use to help me make it better. Fixing the bugs is why its here. :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
The previous build has absolutely nothing to do with the latest build. This is a different ROM. Features/Options will be making it back (or not depending on what they are) eventually. ;)

Is it just me or is someone else also not getting notifications for app like WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] theramsey3:
I don't take this stuff personal. I appreciate the hard work you do for us and provide for free, please don't think I am ungrateful. The biggest turn off for me is the known bug that says user applications cannot write to the external SD card, many of the other things that people have reported have been fixed or were isolated incidents that may vary from phone to phone depending on kernel, settings, apps and etc.

The main subject of my post was to report a problem I was experiencing with attempting to read the first second and third post while I was on my phone using the xda developers app when it was in the dark theme, I had to switch to the light theme to read what the post said. The OP and I communicated via pm and clarified my problem, he fixed the problem I had and now I can read all of the first three posts without switching themes. I did add a comment that I would hold off on trying kitkat for a bit until the bugs(SD card issue for me) was worked out. So if I offended you I apologize I thought I might be helping other members of the community who might be running the dark theme on their xda developers app.

Should I next time just not say anything or only communicate through pm? I am open to suggestions as I am only here to learn, help as I can and find what works best for me on my phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CYRAXDroid:
Just flashed this rom and couple of things when I go to charge no led light shows of I'm. 2. Major lag any ideas to help fix, I seen some people talk about the mp decision I disable that and still have lag issues.

3. Where or what other kernel can be used, I'm guess no Asop only AOKP kernel types. Cause all I seen are just TWZ or Asop kernels.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] grubby0:
That was an old bug that was asked a lot about when first going to jellybean. It was the applications problem not the rom and I believe most of them have fixed this. I know TWRP has. There is some older information in the FAQ that I will get off.

Just a side note I use feedback from all the users and Task to come up with the FAQ's so if anyone see's anything wrong, outdated or has a problem with seeing information in those posts just shoot me and PM and I will fix it. Thanks for your input I actually didn't know there was a problem with the dark theme and hopefully fixed it to be easier to read.

Task offers us a great product for free and properly reporting bugs is beneficial to everyone. In summary the FAQ is there to keep the same repeated questions out of the threads and to keep them clean so Task can get logcats and useful information in continual improvement of his rom. Once again I don't have access to this phone anymore so I rely solely on information from Task's threads. :highfive:

Is there a way to set the capacitive buttons light to only lit when I press them and then turn off after 1 second like it was on a stock touchwiz rom? The only thing I found so far was to disable the light completely.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Not a problem with this ROM. Works just fine on 3 of these devices that I've personally flashed and tested. Something on your end must be causing it.

I'm unable to flash to the latest version. I have a SGH-I747M (Canadian, Bell).

It worked in the past. I had to remove the verification of "d2att" but now, it no longer works. It now says my device is a "d2spr". I tried to modify the file to check for "d2spr" but now, I'm having error 7.

I've read that it may be because of CWM. I have CWM 5.5.0.4. Do I need to update it to the latest version?

Thank you for your help.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Euphoria64:
Yes, update to latest version of cwm and you'll be good to go.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Aradim:
I'm a bit confused though on how to update CWM. What is the best way to do it? With Odin or Rom Manager?

Please go to that recoveries thread and follow the directions. These are things you should look into and already know before flashing Roms.

Hey guys, sorry if I'm asking this in the wrong place.

windows isn't recognizing my device when I plug it in via USB. I tried mounting storage through recovery and just through the system normally but it didn't work. This is on the latest 4.3 build.

Any ideas?

EDIT: Actually, ignore this for now. It just occurred to me that my drivers may not be installed cause I got a new computer so I'll have to try that when I get home.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Ian1331:
The issue is likely one of the following in order of likelihood: Drivers (like you said), usb cable (always use stock Samsung cable), computer usb port (try a different one or different computer) and/or your phone microusb port is failing. Do what you said and if it's not that, which is probably is, follow the above.

KT747 Kernel

I was just curious if the new build that is being worked on (not the 3/1 build) is going to be able to run the KT747 kernel (wifi isn't working right now), or is that something set for the future to be fixed?

Questions:

1. Has the LED-color-per-app setting been removed? That was a really useful feature in previous builds.

2. Looks like there's no way to make 'custom' tiles in the settings menu. I assume this was removed as well? I used to keep my "Recent Apps" tile in there. The workaround is to use the navigation ring FYI.

Issues:

LED doesn't come on when the phone is plugged in. The setting is enabled in Settings > ROM Control > LED. Collecting logs now and posting in the dev thread/G+.

Thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Nothing has been removed. The kitkat ROM is a totally different ROM than the previous. Nothing in any previous releases has anything to do with the latest. You're also not on the latest release if you dont have any of those options.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] x3knet:
Understandable.

My fault for not checking G+ for the latest update, I was looking in the dev thread and saw the latest as March 1st. Disregard.

Anyone have a kernel other than the one that comes with the ROM running on the latest build? Apparently there are WiFi issues with a couple of them, not sure if any are working yet.

I miss using KT's kernel because you could adjust the vibration intensity and the phone wouldn't feel like it's going to explode every time I type something.

Request

Task,

Amazing Rom. The notifications on the locks Creek was an unexpected bonus - really impressive. And the Rom is oh so buttery.

A couple humble requests:

- addition of lock screen targets. Saw your G+ post that you're working on it. Just want to "+1" that addition.

- can you add the option to allow pin codes without having to press "enter" at the end

- add option for battery circle mod with percentage.

Don't touch anything else in the Rom!

Need help. I have been on the July Build for a long time because I love it but phone started to do random boot loops and I am trying to get back to stock then flash this latest update. can anyone please point me to a rooted stock image? I have been with this phone for a long time and love it a love this ROM. I have looked for more than an hour for a flashable file. Also can a zip do and keep custom recovery or do I need the odin file.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Going back to stock is a waste of time. Its unecessary. Fully wipe and reflash the ROM dude.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Boot loader won't make a difference if its just bootlooping. Sounds like something else is getting in the way. I've flashed this ROM on the oldest boot loader and it works just fine. Redownload the ROM and gapps (both packages I've provided for 4.4), nothing else, no kernels, no OTHER PACKAGES, fully wipe, flash them, and you should have no problems. ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pimpnmaxima:
Ok so after alot (like 4hours) of effort with flashing from 2 different computers with multiple flashes I finally got it up to AOKP 4.4.

I downloaded this file Current I747UCDLK3 (JB 4.1.1) from following this post http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1822308

Downloaded it twice. Flashed it twice. Last time got me to stock.

Them I installed GOO Manager.

Installed Custom Recovery.

Installed 4.4

and it completed the boot.

I would like to say I had TWRP updated before I started down this path and nothing help solve this except getting back to stock. I have no idea why.
