I'm happy i made your day but i was asking a question ... can someone give me an answer please,

thx
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DSA:
So you think people should reply within the hour do you?

We arent here just to answer your questions. With an attitude like that, i doubt anyone will reply

"Hey guys! i'm downloading this rom right now !! i used to have your rom on my s2 ! i trust this rom will be great!

One thing can i have original icon colours ? i don't like the blue icons

Cheers Robbie!"

Do you find this rude ? i was just saying hellooo because there was really noone, and i found that weird, sorry if you took that as rude, it was not my intention man. Why would i be rude ? i appreciate everything you guys do!! you do it for free and for us!!

Sorry for the wrong impression
[Galaxy S III Android Development] turilo:
Where can I get ficeto kernel? I'm having same install issues :confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DSA:
C'mon dude, its in the first post (did you read the first post?) :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PlanetJumble:
First of all, sorry if I sounded rude, that wasn't intended. I was just in a bad mood after using CM10 for a day.

I do have a good JB ROM installed, and had it for a while, Omega. It does improve quite a few things, but it still is Samsung based. And Samsung sadly made some terrible decisions. And Omega does not improve on the lockscreen functionality, while this ROM does. I just hope that spreads. Third party lockscreen apps don't work as good as modded lockscreens (at least judging from my experience with the GS1).

I have no doubt about that, but it simply isn't what I am looking for.

Please note that I didn't make any demands "or I won't flash your ROM". I was just asking for a part of the modifications.

What he meant to say is that you should be a bit more patient around here. While there may be lots of people here on XDA they aren't always present round this way in order to answer everyone's questions in the blink of an eye. There are real people behind the usernames who have lives of their own to live, and I'm sure the same applies to you :).

Can't flash

Hey guys, I know these alliance roms since a while now, love what Robbie and Ficeto did with the Galaxy Note one.

I have a problem I can't flash this ICS one on my S3 it just gives me the "installation aborted" message... any ideas?

I've already downloaded 2 times and it does the same thing.

Sorry if this was asked/resolved already, I'm at work and can't do a deep search into this, so shame on me i know, but please do shed some light over this.

thank you guys in advance.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Goldie:
Try flashing the kernel from c) in the guide first
[Galaxy S III Android Development] djsteel3000:
Wasn't the easiest to install but managed in the end. The 1st time i tryed ti install it as it was booting up on the "alliance rom" boot animation it hanged. Then i went back to the recovery and wiped everything again, re-installed the rom then it worked.

Seems very smooth and fast. Looks great too. I always had a issue with JB lag in opening the dialler and contacts but on this there is only a slight lag.

Any change for a volume hack ???

Keep up the good work guys !
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jonitfcfan:
What volume hack? You mean the mod to change music tracks when you hold the volume keys? If so that should be available under 'Settings' > 'Rom Customizer' > 'ROM Settings' > 'Choose modifications' > 'Choose 'n tweak lockscreens', then toggle 'Skip song'.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] djsteel3000:
No I mean the volume hack that increases the sound volume and quality of the device.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Pretzel Kleo:
Can someone tell me how to delete the folder that was created on my SDCard? It's called "Alliance" and everytime I try to delete it does not work! Any idea?

I already uninstalled the Mod.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] comnam90:
Why do you want to delete it?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] paintball23456:
o_______________O i cant flash i flash in recovery and it wont flash
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Pretzel Kleo:
It's garbage, how can I delete it?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] comnam90:
Its not garbage mate, its part of the rom. It's also needed for Rom Customizer to work.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Pretzel Kleo:
Yeah bro, I know that... but I flashed JB Stable Release so I don't need the folder anymore... ¿Can someone tell me how to delete it?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] comnam90:
Use a root browser and delete from /data/media/Alliance
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gtda:
I've tried installing this ROM from cwm just like a few others and nothings happened. (even tho it says in the op that it's possible to just wipe and install as normal) I'm currently on checkrom v5 ics. Yes i wiped everything. I've also signed up to the forum to get the customsettings.apk but i never received the confirmation email so now when i click on the link, it says i don't have permission. Can't it be attached to op? and from reading the op the kernel is if coming from jb roms so I'm not flashing that coz I'm on ics. id really like to get this rom working, is there some how a simpler way. Am i missing something. Sorry, not trying to sound rude, just a little frustrated at the situation.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] comnam90:
You could put a blank file called "wipe" in sdcard/Alliance

Or just boot into recovery, do factory wipe, then reboot recovery from advanced recovery menu and then continue to flash from zip from recovery like normal
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gtda:
I think I'll stick with what i have until i get jb working the way i like it. Cheers
[Galaxy S III Android Development] turilo:
We need alliance in note 2 department
[Galaxy S III Android Development] comnam90:
Alliance doesn't have the money for the devices ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] shricker:
Impatiently waiting for Jellybean version of alliance rom robby you're the best mate. I your rom is smooth as!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] comnam90:
Have a look on our forum, we have some jb bases you can try

Let's donate some more peeps :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] komsa:
didn't manage to install this ROM from custom recovery......."installation aborted"........do i miss something ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jonitfcfan:
Did you do a checksum on the download as per this post?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] komsa:
now i did that and if i did everything right,the result is "match"
[Galaxy S III Android Development] komsa:
it is real mistery......i tried almost every ROM here on XDA(ICS and JB) and this is the only one i wasn't able to install......tried both way from CWM (5 and touch) and from "customizer" ...................did a cheksum and everything is ok...........now i am out of ideas.........
[Galaxy S III Android Development] beaver2233:
did you flash the custom recovery from the 1st page?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] djsteel3000:
GREAT ROM !!!

Any kind of LOUD VOLUME mod i can flash please ????
[Galaxy S III Android Development] komsa:
i didn't cause this is when you are downgrading from JB ROM and i already have ICS ROM installed but thanks i'll try that too........
[Galaxy S III Android Development] turilo:
The way I got this rom to install after a jelly Bean rom was with mobile Odin I selected the custom recovery along with the alliance rom itself and all went well. I also kept getting rom install aborts before hand

EDIT: but as you can see I am now on my almighty note 2 :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] komsa:
if somebody could repair installation of this ROM it would be nice :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] comnam90:
I dont believe there is anything wrong with the installation of this rom?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] komsa:
ok,agree that i miss something in process but all the other ROM's i tried could install without any problem but this couldn't ???
[Galaxy S III Android Development] comnam90:
have you tried reinstalling? copied it to your phone again? are you trying to install it as a second rom?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] komsa:
tried 10 times(from cwm and from ROM customizer as described...),no i am not trying to install as second ROM
[Galaxy S III Android Development] monose1:
Does this rom have the memory leak problem?

Because i now have a jellybean custom rom from this forum and the ram managing is AWFUL...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] :
Use TWRP. Not CWM. This is not the first post about this issue though... ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] komsa:
thanks for the idea but the TWRP didn't help either ..........
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Goldie:
Did you follow the guide for coming from stock?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mkim055:
I know where you are coming from. Also downloaded this ROM 3~4 times on my PC, and tried to copy it to my phone ext-sdcard.

Seems like the copying process stop at around 67% ish but do not show any error, copy window just disappear as if it is done.

Once in CWM to flash, i get "unable to open".

Try new XXDLJ2 JB ROMs, I reckon it is pretty solid and fast, MS Team HD 5.0 XXDLJ2 I recommend and will be out soon.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] comnam90:
best practice...always flash roms from internal sdcard...

this has been the way since the early days of s1...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] dazznuts2000:
Message from robbie "i will be repacking the rom today to see if problems dissapear"
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mkim055:
Sorry for not mentioning, but I did also try copying to internal sdcard. Samething
[Galaxy S III Android Development] dikkebas:

it was and always has been CWM flashable....
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gtda:
I couldn't get it to work either way, from cwm or the touch recovery, that's why I asked.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Robbie Hood:
it flashes perfect man ......

for some reason it helped for a user on my forum to remoe the external sdcard .

Pls try that , there is absolutely nothing wrong with the rom or cwm zip ...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lomniom:
Installed back ICS after several days of JellyBean. I miss the smoothness of this Rom so much, so i came back. =)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Robbie Hood:
Tw jellybean roms just arent quite there yet :)

However im building on lj4 now and will see what will be the result.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] enigmaamit:
Exactly! I'm confused over the hue and cry over jellybean, as I have personally failed to see what's so magical about JB except for the notification upgrades and Google now... I've tried all of them, but before leaving for work in the morning, I make sure I have Alliance up and running. ICS does much better on Sammy based ROMs than the current lot of JB upgrades.

I hope you can change that... :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lomniom:
That's why he and his team are here. =)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Robbie Hood:
Same here mate.

It only performs good after first boot but will slow down pretty quickly without any clear reason or problem.

All my devices still run ics and i only run jellybean to explore possibilities with modifications.

My note running ics final feels much smoother than my s3 on XXDLJ4 :confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lomniom:
I think it will take several more releases, then they will be as stable as ICS final.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Robbie Hood:
Prepping some upgrades for the final release.

- Long press back kills app

- Switchable/themable battery mod ( alliance stock and circlebattery, the last will be iterchangeable via ota visuals )

- BlackBerry 10 lock

- Stock note/s2 lock

- Cleaner Settings

- quad lock upgraded to octo ( 4 to 8 targets)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] enigmaamit:
I'm waiting eagerly to test... Do you think JB is upto the mark yet? I found it lacking in terms of battery life in all the versions so far...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Robbie Hood:
Getting something to smoke real quick.

Then i need to edit policy for the extra locks.

Battery, long press back and settings ive allready finished.

And no i just restored ics final today for the extra mods because i was gettin sick and tired of these poor builds.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Robbie Hood:
ok done :)

- Long press back kills app

- Switchable/themable battery mod ( alliance stock and circlebattery, the last will be interchangeable via ota visuals )

[Galaxy S III Android Development] themsubtle:
I'm trying to use the ics original one but when I select it and press lock button it just turns the screen off, and when I go to unlock it just wakes the screen, no lockscreen.

I also have the custom launcher home button bug too, is there anyway off getting the fix again?

Plus I can't get the task manager to open from the notification drop down but this could be part of the home button problem

Did you f;lash the new update ?

I selected it but just can't seem to get it to work, I came from resurrection remix aokp,

But I need the home button fix too, cos I can't even get the task manager up when long pressing the button just doesn't work

Thanks man :)

You as a users are my m ain goal and i try to keep you guys happy :)

I tried to re flash the rom but when I restored from my titanium backup it has the same problems home button and lockscreen

Sent from my GT-I9300
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jimbo77:
Take as much time as you need! I'll be in for testing as well!... BTW, when I was using my Xperia Arc, one of the most reliable and beautiful ROMS was a "Hybrid Version" of an AOKP and a STOCK Sony ROM (here is the thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1537717).

Basically what JJ'doctor did was to port some of the AOSP apps like dialer, sms, contacts etc.. and merged them with SONY's framework, the same did with the aokp apk to control the toogles etc...

Now, I know you have way more experience in modding and porting framework and smalis, do you think this is somehow possible for our device? This would definetely be a ROM killer :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] themsubtle:
Thanks robbie I think it's all sorted now, i fixed it by installing the rom and doing a full wipe, then I restored my titanium backup and applied the update after the restore instead of before and all problems seem to be sorted :)

The only other thing I have noticed is when you long press the home button the task manager and other buttons are slightly mishaped, see below

Sent from my GT-I9300
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Robbie Hood:

Edit: Is OTA updates available for your JB base ROM?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] emerald123:
Is it possible to dual boot your rom?..

I mean ficeto kernel supports it?...

Will your rom boot with siyah kernel...

No offense...

I can't wait to try your rom but I also love my stock ics rooted rom...

sorry for this question, but is this rom bloatware free? thank you
[Galaxy S III Android Development] petzku:
@Robbie:

There is still a smal graphical bug that keeps bothering me a bit. It's the H and H+ icons,, some times it's bold and some times it's not.

And the upload/download arrows needs to be little bit more down and to the left to be exactly like in aosp. Not a big thing, but just wanted you to know if you didn't already.

nope, samsungs apps are there.. edit: and yes, listen to robbie :)

---------- Post added at 11:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:43 AM ----------

You had to quote the entire op to ask that?? N1

OK. You flashed the ficetos kernel 1st with odin and then did a factory reset and flashed the zip? Then the control and setting should be at-> hit menu -> settings.. 1st 2 at the top

And after update package, they are under -> menu -> settings -> Alliance control
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Robbie Hood:
Yes its bloatware free if u choose it ;)

Before flasging vis rom customizer simply choose to flash without samsung app vja the rom config..

These apps then will get installed to sdcard/Alliance/uninstalled/sys and if a user might miss something he is able to reinstall it from romcustomizer / manage system apps.

Ia manage system apps u can also uninstall any system app u want.

Dou you think is possible to make clock centered and remove the "full" date from status bar?

That Way Ithink the Rom will look a little bit better :)
