Task,

Ever thought of scrapping the whole AOKP, and rebasing your ROM on straight CM?

CM is running so much better, with no issues what so ever.

Having your extras on CM base would be the ultimate ROM.

How are you guys flashing the latest bootloader straight from your phone or on a Mac?

It doesn't seem to work with Odin Mobile (and in the Odin Mobile post, it says that it won't allow to flash bootloader?)

Just noticed the dpi settings have been put back in! I've been playing with em, but not sure what a good medium is. What are people using?

I'm enjoying 240 much better then stock as of now.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] OTSS:
I'm on an older bootloader but I've installed the most recent stock ROM in the past (4.1.1) however I did it through mobile odin. It installs fine, but it doesn't change the bootloader since mobile odin won't allow that.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Ian1331:
I've been on this rom for over 6 months and have never had a problem. Bluetooth has been good, switch to 4.2.2 was seamless and the 'new' kernel has improved performance well beyond stock. If everyone followed Task's instructions perfectly I think there'd be no reason to even consider comparing this to CM, especially when the thread rules forbid it ;)

Edit... Ahh crap, app didn't update, thought I was the first to reply

Tried to flash on TWRP 2.5.0.0, CWM 6.0.3.1 and CWM Touch and all of them gave me "status 7" error, downloaded the ROM file 3 times too, and the same..

Followed the OP instructions..

Any solutions? :S
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Ian1331:
like task said in the dev thread, ensure you are using the D2ATT version of TWRP, and ensure you have the latest Odin, and ensure you are putting the file task told you to get in the PDA box in Odin. If it passes, treat it like any other update and follow the OP.

Signal Issues

Hello,

I just flashed the latest Task rom (5/17) and prior to doing this, updated to I747UCDLK3 through Odin.

Now prior to this morning, I was on the 5/14 release, and a different baseband (I cannot remember which one). I was getting wonderful 4G speeds in my house, and around town as I always have. After the flash to 5/17 and new bootloader I747UCDLK3, my phone shows a blinking H+ or 3G icon, and more often than not, I lose signal (phone and data) when my wife, who has the same phone and plan, has a 4G connection. I know it's comparing apples to oranges since she is stock, but the point I am trying to make is that she gets 4G, and I only get 3G, or no signal at all.

Is there anything I can do to restore my old bootloader, go back to a previous release, or is there another radio for ATT I can try? I've searched all morning but could not find a definitive answer for this.

Thank you!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] alacrify:
Works fine for me - did you change the DPI?

---------- Post added at 02:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:33 PM ----------

On stock it will show 4G whether you have it or not. AT&T "feature". Check your APN, sometimes it needs to be set again.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] imcol:
I don't think I did. Where can I change it?

EDIT: my DPI is 320
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mikecantreed:
Looks good here.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] imcol:
Any help on what I can do? My DPI is 320. Is that correct
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Ian1331:
Do what alacrify says and confirm your APN settings. Also make sure your network mode didn't get flipped to just WCMA/GSM preferred (rather than one of the options that at includes LTE). Lastly, if you had never flashed a radio/modem prior to today, take a look at your wife's phone baseband version (in about phone menu) and see if it's the same as yours (I747UCDLK3). If she has something else, it could be that her baseband (radio/modem) works better in your area and you could try switching it by going to this thread. If you have questions about the modem/radio PM me as we are now outside supporting this rom.

One search - three words in Google. Please search around. And yes, 320 is stock.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Ian1331:
320 is default, and with that your swipe options should look like mike's screenshot. There was a time when the swipe options were cut off and task had to recenter it to move it up. Are you on an old release? If not, try changing your DPI to 240, rebooting, then changing back to 320. If still no good, let's see a screenshot and/or consider a full wipe/reflash as per OP to correct it.

I am on the latest release. I just did a full wipe to get to this release! What could be wrong?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Its surprising to me that you're not used to always having problems that nobody else is by now. You're asking people to guess what the issue is that you're having. That's not very productive. Redownload, fully wipe, and reflash.

P.S- Fully wiping you device is a good thing! Not sure why you're making is sound like its such a horrible thing with your exclamation points!

There's no such thing as calibrating the battery on these devices! Read up a little to better educate yourself about the subject! Don't look for support here if you don't want to follow the proper instructions just as I've told you to do! You obviously don't want to fix the issue that you're having!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Ian1331:
I suppose a bunch of things could be wrong. Did you try the DPI switch and switch back? If I were you I'd nan my setup, Full wipe and flash only rom and gapps provided in OP and before doing anything else, including restoring apps, setup the swipe options and see what you've got. If it's still not working, post a logcat but expect to wait for a new release to magically fix it.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Ian1331:
Yeah I kinda set that expectation. I'd be curious to see the lockscreen screenshot (PM it to me to avoid dragging this out) as I'm wondering if theirs several widgets jammed above causing problems. I imagine he'd find it works great after a fresh wipe with no changes and would have no need to submit a logcat anyway.

I figured out what the problem is. When I select slide as my lockscreen without any icons set for the different sides of the circle, the problem is seen. But if I set something for the bottommost icon then it automatically fixes itself.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Enraged Medic:
Here's my question: do you have to remove the .md5 part of the file (thus making it a .tar file) before you update your bootloader to LK3 in Odin PDA section?

I used rootchecker to confirm that I have LK3. I was on TW stock for a while (including the update to stock TW JB) before I rooted my phone in March (I was late to the game, don't judge! :laugh:)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Here's my question: If you're on the latest bootloader then why would you need to worry about it? I've given the instructions in two different places in the OP. They only need to be followed.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] torred:
Is there a way to disable ad blocking that I'm assuming is included in this ROM?

On a certain website it tells me that I don't have flash player installed.....Same thing happened to me before when I used Adaway.

Searched but didn't come up with anything.

Thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
I've never included ad blocking. That is something that the user can do with many 3rd party apps if he/she chooses.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Enraged Medic:
Well, in the OP someone was having issues even though they had LK3. Who knows WTF he is doing when he's flashing. I came here because I thought this was the proper area for Q&A. Sorry if I wasted your time with what I thought was a legitimate question.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
You're legitimate question is answered in two different places in the OP.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Enraged Medic:
Yeah, I checked that and it says nothing about what I was referring to (having to manually removed the .md5 or not). I just wanted to make sure just in case I actually had to do the bootloader update as I don't want to F up my phone. In fact, here's a direct quote from YOU:

I'm sorry but you're one of the most arrogant and offensive developers on XDA. I come to the correct area to ask a question (albeit a dumb one in your eyes) and still get flamed. Thanks, I guess.

I have the same issue with the signal dropping out. I've flashed the latest bootloader for my phone, with the included modem.. I've also tried another modem as well, but the issue persists. I know its not an apn setting due to the fact that the internet works perfectly, i just get no carrier signal. I know there's cell service where i am, but i get random signal loss. My rom installation was a clean wipe, after the bootloader update. I will try a full wipe/reinstall again, before i revert back to stock.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xavierpunkreno:
I've had my differences with Task before but I'm pretty sure he clarified that he was having his original issues because he tried using mobile Odin, hence why he recommended it to everyone to use the desktop version. However in response to your issue, I didn't remove the md5 extension and it worked perfectly fine. Make sure you run it in the PDA section.

Will the ribbons only work at 320 dpi? Changing to 240 seems to prevent the swiping from occurring.

Has anyone else had their signal completely drop out? Mine does that periodically where i get no service at all.

I've checked the apn, and it seems to be the correct one. I've noticed there's no signal dropping when using the gsm/wcdma preferred setting in the network mode menu, but as soon as i switch to the lte/gsm/wcdma setting i get periodic signal loss.

I understand that, and its always worked perfectly on my bell phone. I've noticed the same issue with the newer CM10.1 Nightlies as well. 99% of the ATT Roms work with no issues on the canadian phones.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Yes. But this ROM isn't 99% of the ATT ROMs. This is just this ROM. So whether or not other ROMs work doesn't apply to this ROM. ;)

LOL I understand that, Everything has worked amazing up until the past couple updates when I started dropping signal randomly. I was just looking into the "problem" because i'd like to keep this one on my phone.

When I go into odin my phone has to be in download mode when I flash the tar file for updating the bootloader right?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
There are plenty of places here on XDA and Google to search these types of things out. This has nothing to do with this ROM as this is a support thread for this ROM only. I only mention this because you should really read up on these types of things before moving forward with them. You can brick your device when doing things like this. Please to a little research before you go messing around with bootloaders. That way you will continue to be able to use your device for a while.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Instead of persuading to educate another user, you have accomplished the opposite. Instead of letting the user learn about odin, bootloaders, and how to flash them properly you have just contributed to the "HELP! I JUST BRICKED MY PHONE!!!" threads. Please try and contribute to the education of the user rather than contribute to the problem here on XDA by spoon feeding. The best part of that is that he/she can pass that knowledge along here to the next guy. Helping to progress that average user down the line. Also. Please stay on topic in the thread which is this ROM. How to use ODin has nothing to do with this thread or this ROM. Thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Please don't flash it. You will brick your device if you don't do it right. Bootloaders are not in .tar format so you must be trying to flash the wrong thing. I would slow down dude.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Jaspah:
First, are you sure you even need to flash the new bootloader? If you were ever on a TouchWiz JB (4.1x) build directly from Samsung, you already have the new bootloader and do not need to flash. If you don't need to flash the new bootloader, there is no need to use Odin for anything and you can flash the latest ROM builds no problem. Odin is a powerful program that can potentially brick your device if you don't know what you are doing.

Like Task650 said, you need to slow down and read some of the documentation available to you on XDA. You don't want to brick your device, especially just because you didn't follow directions.
