okay i flashed the kernel/recovery thing and now i have twrp recovery, next time tell me that this recovery does not recognize fat32 sdcard, now i have no access to my backups or roms because they are all on my external sdcard.

now help me!!!!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] petzku:
Anyway to get this rom without twrp??
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cmajetic:
I don't see a way, I changed recovery back to cwm and now I am unsubscribing this thread, a rom that doesn't work with cwm is not worth it, too complicated for just an ics Rom and not enough information (you have to pull battery after flashing recovery because jb won't boot with ics kernel and so on, I am just happy that I didn't brick it...)

@Robbie :

This one here is an eye opener man. I've been using all sorts of Custom ROMs and was kinda satisfied with the ROMs I'd used so far - both ICS and JB. But somehow, JellyBean just didn't live up to the hype in my book. I couldn't see project butter actually working, and frankly speaking, most of my apps behaved better on ICS. Secondly, the battery was never as good as it was on ICS. And there were lags!! Sometimes reminding me of the Gingerbread days on 600MHz single core HTC devices.

So I was strolling across the Development forums and came across your thread. Looked very professional - had a certain appeal to it. It looked like you knew what you were doing. The extensive modding and painful XML edits must have taken considerable time and energy- and it shows. This is what a CUSTOM ROM should be like - Actual hard work - and Uniqueness!

I've had enough of using "custom" ROMs that are merely Stock ROMs pushed through an automated kitchen, with a couple well known add-ons slapped on and each new version is the same with just the base updated. No offence to any one, but that ain't development... it's repetitive mechanical work. The second option was to use semi-broken AOSP ROMs with many features missing/ needing workaround/ in development/ etc... again, felt incomplete.

But this one here is a genuine masterpiece. It's ripped me away from Jellybean, and I am so happy for it. Looks like AOSP, feels like AOSP - but still has all the Samsung goodies. Rock stable, great performance and yet I don't have to pay the price with a sucky battery life. It's taken me through two entire days of work (36hrs) before running out of juice. Couldn't ask for more.

Please carry on the good work. I wish there were more Devs like you on this device.

I have the following issue:

When I try to flash the CFW via CWM (not CWM touch), I get to "Extracting New System" or something like that in the process, then CWM recovery reboots...

Nevermind. Figured it out. Flashed the kernel you are supposed to, when you are coming from JB... This fixed it for me, though I was comming from sammy 4.0.4 only with the root from Samsung Galaxy S3 Toolkit thing.

Thanks anyways. Nice ROM so far (2 minutes of usage lol)

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mirciulikkk:
One small thing though. What is that notification in the right of the statusbar (right near the 3g signal or wifi connection sign) with that grey N? How can I disable it? (Yes, I have already tried through settings > custom settings > choose modifications > status bar tweaks, and it doesn't show there)

Besides that, this phone works great (got it today) with this ROM, I absolutely love it.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] enigmaamit:
That is the NFC indicator. Go to settings> more settings> NFC and turn off NFC, and that icon will disappear.

I have problem with hw center button - home.

When i Choose it like app drawer starter (nova and apex) that isnt work.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DSA:
The hardware button doesn't open the app drawer does it? I thought you had to press the app drawer button on the screen...that's why the hardware button is called 'home'...

This is all based on the fact I'm assuming you meant hardware when you typed hw
[Galaxy S III Android Development] budvajs:
Why not?

Nova settings - gest & buttons - home button - choose app drawer open

This choice is good for me, but that isnt work on this rom :confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DSA:
Are you sure it's not a nova bug?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] budvajs:
It isnt nova bug, i test it in apex and i have same problem.

On Revolution and stock rom all works fine.

go to nova settings menu - gest and buttons - home button settings - set it as app drawer starter.. go back to homescreens and test it.

It doesnt work for me (Nova and Apex too)

Any ideas?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Siberian Tiger:
You must read the OP carefully.

That's why is there and not in the middle of the thread :D

Hint:you have to flash the kernel first ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Goose247:
I did read the OP and according to the OP I only need to flash that kernel 1st if I am coming from JellyBean or AOSP

Just for arguments sake I did flash that kernel and it got to the same place in the install and then would just reboot to recovery.

I'm not coming from JellyBean or AOSP ROM I am coming from Samsung ICS and followed these instruction about 20 times.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] enigmaamit:
Goose, I know this is a little frustrating for you but the Rom is really worth the trouble.

After flashing the kernel, just reboot recovery do afull wrote and and try to flash the Rom. The process may get hung or abort. Don't give up, reboot the recovery again and flash the Rom again with wiping anything. This is what worked for me, so I'm typing it up for you.

Best way to reboot recovery is via adb :

adb reboot recovery

Try it and let us know how our went.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] :
I could not get this to flash in CWM 6.0.1.2. It only worked in TWRP. Just flash their kernel + recovery via odin. The one they say to use when coming from jb or aosp. I was in Samsung 4.0.4 too.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Goose247:
Ok thanks guys. Finally got it working by installing TWRP then doing a full wipe and trying to install rom. Then having to repeat by rebooting to recovery, doing a full wipe and installing rom 5 times.

All good now though :laugh:

Hi, I installed your ROM and reverted back to JB after some days trial. Your ROM is great.

Unfortunately I found there was a folder named "Alliance" remained in Sdcard. And I could not delete the folder. It shows "cannot delete alliance: the storage is protected" when I tried to delete it. Could you please advise if there is any way I could delete it? Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jonitfcfan:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] paintball23456:
how the hell can 30fps be smoother than 60fps 0__0???
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jonitfcfan:
You could try one of the following if you haven't done so already:

- Check the folder permissions of the Alliance folder. If it shows as belonging to the root user perhaps try changing permissions/ownership to non-root user (I don't use Root Explorer so I can't tell you where the option to do this is).

- Use Terminal Emulator from the Play Store, browse to the folder then type the following command (as superuser):

rm -r Alliance

Hope this helps.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] enigmaamit:
Have you tried it?

Tapatalked from my SIII
[Galaxy S III Android Development] tczhang:
Thank you very much for your advice.

- Root Explorer does not let me change the permission/ownership.

- Terminal Emulator : Permission denied

Thats probably why it isnt working. try flashing the zip inside recovery manually. Official versions of CWM recovery dont allow unsigned commands to be passed through (eg rom customizer), so you either need our version of 5.8.x.x or another non official version that doesnt require signed commands.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] shorty1483:
Very good work guys! ROM is looking awesome!

Referring to the flashing process of your ROM with few guys where it is not working properly. I guess it is because of the 5.5.0.4 Touch CMW version. With this version (included in the Kernel tar) the flashing process works flawlessly. As soon as I try it with Chainfires 5.5.0.4 I get problems. Nevertheless, i flashed CF CWm and siyah 1.3.8 afterwards and now everything works well on first view.

But Prime Lockscreen is a bit laggy isn't it?

[Galaxy S III Android Development] PlanetJumble:
This seems to be the only stock based ROM with custom lockscreens - is that so hard to do on the Galaxy S3? I remember every last stock based custom ROM having something like that on the Galaxy S.

I hate the Touchwiz lockscreen! How could they become so arrogant as to only support their crappy music app with media controls there? It's not just the fact that they gave theirs an edge over third party music apps, but haven't they ever heard of audio books and podcasts? Since ICS there is a standard for lockscreen controls and they should really support that.

But, I am not going back to ICS, no matter how smooth you call it. Is there any way you could port your lockscreen customizations over to JB? :o
[Galaxy S III Android Development] enigmaamit:
Nobody is forcing you to go back to ics. There are a ton of jellybean Roms out there.. why don't you flash one of them?

What you see is what you get here man.. this has taken a lot of love and labor to build and you can see it once you install it.

Jellybean may eventually happen but for now all we have is ics...take it or leave it. And XDA really needs to exit this"I want this feature or I won't flash your Rom" attitude. The devs are doing us a favor here, not the other way around.
