Fix permissions via rom manager
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Biker1:
You can But it won't turn out well, and not at all recommended, and most likely be a waste of time coming from 125.

Flash 290 using Super wipe with any of the other options if you'd like. You'll be glad you did.

Remember to install 290 on your ExtSDcard because your Internal will be Wiped.

Back up, and/or transfer your Internal stuff, and make a Nandroid to your ExtSDcard ;)

Was it said somewhere that it isn't necessary?

Dl 290 to your ExtSDcard.

You can dl it directly, or on your pc and transfer it.

I dl 290 onto my internal, and moved it to my ExtSDcard, and used MD5 Checker, or rather had Root Explorer check it with its built in checker.

Back up the data on your Internal memory if you want to save it.

Yes you can download directly to your phone. Be sure to move it to your extSD afterwards since you want to wipe your internal before you flash synergy. AOSP back up what you want :thumbup::D

Gallery No Pictures

Hi, did the full wipe/ext4 etc. Everything is super except for one thing.

When I try to choose a picture for my contacts Gallery comes up. It shows how many pictures are in each catagory but it does not show any pictures.

I have quick pic installed and it works fine.

Question: I do not know how to make quickpic the default for the contacts. I am able to do most defaults but not this.

Does anyone have gallery as an app that I could reload?

If none of the above would work I am willing to do a reburn but since I just did it...........

Gallery No Pictures

Well, another self answer here.

I did a third clean and burn. Just did it and I checked that the Gallery is working for selecting pictures. I blame this on me. Maybe I did not clean one of the caches on the other two burns. Have to blame it on me since the third burn is working. Just goes to show that on this version R290 that we MUST clean everything, do a factory reset, and do the ext4 thing to make sure everything is going.

BTW love the new choices in R290 but I sure wish I knew more about the choices. On the two galleries I chose to install the Samsung gallery since I did not know what would happen if I did not. There were some other things I was not completely sure of but it was not big deal.

Very nice on the battery use. While I was using burn two I could see a giant difference in battery use. Very nice.

since released and the only

minor issues I,m seeing are

** The pDroid manger fc

**The status bar will not show at times for a few. Testing could be due to runnig live wallpaper. Since

shutting off the live wallpaper

status bar has not done this since

** had to dirty flash the second time around cured the gapp fc's

I chose the following config this time

*** selected ziggy's kernel

the ONLY thing I'm concerned about is SPEED. The stock Verizon software is so slow and bogged down for me, by installing this will I see a noticeable difference?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] codemonkey2k5:
Just thought I would post my experience at this point...

Build 169 was nearly perfect on my phone.

I had to change the kernel because no matter what voltages I tried I just can not get my phone to like Ziggy's kernel.

Then 290 came along... For my phone, it was a disaster. Almost nothing worked from the stock install.

Upping Ziggy's voltages a bit solved the Bluetooth audio crackle. But my GPS was useless.

Also I could call out, but people calling me had about a 1 in 10 chance of me actually having the phone ring.

I decided to take a chance and dirty load 169 back on to my phone over 290.

I then loaded up my trusty LeanKernel and the result was nothing less than amazing!

I really only planned to keep my phone like this long enough to finish my work day. But everything is working so amazingly that I am not touching anything! It seems that I have created some kind of Synergetic Franken Rom that has kept the best of both builds.

My battery life is phenomenal! My GPS locks better than it ever has. I'm serious, this phone has never worked so well ever!

Now I am not saying that everyone should go out and try this. I think it's just a happy accident that things worked out this way. But who knows.

Also I realize that by changing away from Ziggy's kernel I am undoing some of the special optimizations of the Rom. My phone just doesn't like the kernel. By the way, if anyone is curious what voltages I run, i use the ones in the 169 android university video on the opening page.

Regards,

CodeMonkey

R290 full clean/factory reset/ etc.

I heard the phone buzz three times when I got to it and looked it was showing the Samsung Galaxy SII logo normal for a boot. Multiple attempts after pulling the battery over and over, but it never gets past that.

This phone had everything working perfectly. Reinstalled my apps and they were working. Then this.

BTW this is the second time this happened. On my first burn I figured I just messed up something. But now I know I did not.

I can get back to recovery but it takes attempting to get there about three times. The first two times it gets to the same logo and hangs. Finally, on the third attempt it boots to recovery.

Will attempt a fourth burn without Ziggy's kernel.

If that does not work then Root66.

Yup, I know that upgrading ROMs isn't as seemless as I'd had hoped with Titanium Backup. After I found this out, I did not restore any system settings only apps. I have also downloaded multiple times with the 257 and the 290, so I doubt it is bad download thing.....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BillBauman:
I experienced many of your same issues, on both my own and my friend's GS3. In many re-flashes and re-formats, it *think* the culprit is SuperWipe with EXT4. I can't say for certain, though, as I continued to not add things.

My phone is finally stable, running like it did back on R125. I don't want to go back one-by-one to figure out what the exact combination was that accomplished this, but for your reference, I did not add ANY Google Apps. I did NOT install PDroidManager. I SuperWiped WITHOUT EXT4. I DID install Ziggy Kernel.

The reasoning behind much of what I didn't include was that I knew I'd just restore it from Titanium Backup. It seems that, at least on the 2 GS3's I've attempted R290 on, restoring any sort of backed up data to an existing Google App (for example, I have several, large, offline Google Maps saved) seems to mess everything up.

Okay, as a bit of a pain, but I figure to help all of those of you who may experience GApps FC'ing, Phone not booting or getting stuck on the Samsung Galaxy screen, odd behavior in the Gallery, etc., etc. here is my (FINALLY) stable configuration/install of R290 in pictures (taken by the Nexus 4).
