You can do the same installation. If you are facing any problem then you can do a full wipe.

@anukilimanoor

HI is the Same 8.2 like 8.3 with other Kernel in 8.3 ???

Or gives big Differenz ??

What is better in 8.3?

Tell me and I Flash the 8.3...

@• Removed Exynos Abuse + Camera Fix why? Works because then camera or video the video was indeed a problem with what was the fix, right?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] anukilimanoor:
:confused: I didnt understand the first part

Please check the changelog

Removed because new kernel is with exynos fix.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Abyv:
Hello Anu..is Siyah kernel better than the stock 8.2? If then can i just flash without wipe?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] hgyula87:
Dont know why but 8.3 UI is lagging a bit for me :/
[Galaxy S III Android Development] anukilimanoor:
You can try both kernel.. I'm using siyah it is coming with exynos fix.

Wipe: Really not needed, but if you are facing any problem then you can do...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] anukilimanoor:
You mean 8.2 was working ok for you? :eek: I was facing UI lag on 8.2 but 8.3 is working good...:confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] hgyula87:
8.2 working like charm, but 8.3 is lagging and the battery time is not so good.. :/
[Galaxy S III Android Development] anukilimanoor:
OMG for me just opposite.:) which kernel are you using?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] hgyula87:
Latest Siyah. Already tried phenomenal but got random reboots, with perseus is epic lagging and kill my battery.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] anukilimanoor:
Do a full wipe and clean internal sdcard then install... No need to do any modification on kernel side it is working fine with default settings.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] hgyula87:
Done two times, but no change. I try to mod stweaks settings.. Hope something change.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] qavro:
was the same for me with 8.2 (coming from 7.2)

after a full wipe and reflash i am getting both good battery and super smooth ui.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] hgyula87:
Installed Yank kernel and now the UI lag is gone.. Btw, can i somehow disable that fckin lock screen rotation? Allways get angry when the screen turn left or right. :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] qavro:
You have a toggle button for screen rotation. Turn it off...

Or, if you reffer to the rotation of the lock screen, you have an option ar flash time in aroma installer called "NO Screen rotation"
[Galaxy S III Android Development] hgyula87:
I know both of this, but i dont want to reflash the rom. Thats why ask some script etc.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] qavro:
:) I tried too on 7.2

Ended up in a reflash...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PIRATA!:
Uploaded to v8.3 with success!!

Smooth and good as usual.

Damn! I have a problem with my contacts log and messages!

My log and messages don't match with names and I only see numbers..

Same when I'm calling I don't see contact name/photo but only number...

Please tell me not to wipe!! Is there a way to empty some cache or what so to fix this??
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jack_p75:
hi i like know if the rom have the 1% battery mod.thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PIRATA!:
Ok my problem is that I have all my contacts showing as Unsaved in my phone log list and in my sms list!!

If I edit my contacts editing for just a sec the phone number and then writing it back as before and then save them back, then the contact shows up correctly in both phone and sms logs...

Any suggestions on how to fix this??
[Galaxy S III Android Development] anukilimanoor:
Backup your contact then delete it and restore.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PIRATA!:
Yeah I had tired that as first, but not succeeded.

I then fixedit by backuping call log with TB, then deleting contacts related account in System and also deleting all call log entry. Then rebooted and added account back, fully synced and then restored call log.

No need to restore contacts back.

Everything is back and showing correctly.

Only one thing: there is a little bit lag in updating contact picture in phone app when receiving/making a phone call.

This happened also with last two v8.x releases of DarkyROM.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] anukilimanoor:
You can disable it while flashing...

[Galaxy S III Android Development] hankhandsome:
impressive, but a lot of idle time .. i assume you've got battery saver on ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] qavro:
yes, power saving on most of the time. to be honest there are few situations when i deactivate it. as i said somewhere on this thread, depends on what you are doing with the phone.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] hankhandsome:
I suppose i'm a "heavy" user of mine because I get around a day and a bit out of each charge. the "bit" being anywhere between an hour to twelve hours if i end up leaving it overnight.

i listen to music a lot with it as well which does hammer the battery somewhat. if i had the time and the inclanation, i would probably read through the Siyah thread a lot more to find out the best tweaks for the kernel to improve on that.

Battery draining solved for me... Installed better battery stats and saw an App draining the device.. Uninstalled a hour ago and my battery still 90%.. So i prefer that app for everyone who got problems.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PIRATA!:
I think that undervolting should be found personally on each device as each device is hardware different from each other.

P.S.: when you say to enable speaker tuning,you mean in STweaks? Isn't it for external speaker??

P.P.S.: what is scheduler mc 2???
[Galaxy S III Android Development] qavro:
I also think that each should try his own settings for uv.

speaker tunning has nothing to do with battery saving. i've just posted what i have modified.

thanks for those. i might give them a spin and see how we go.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] qavro:
@PIRATA

From their explanation:

"seting it to 2 will bias task wake-ups to semi-idle CPU package for power savings"

For me anything "power saving" related is good. all i need to know :)

Mmmm... I'll ask in the Siyah kernel thread as I need more explanation..

This rom is the best rom for s3

No bugs and has wonderful battery life

With perseus alpha 29 it gives me 8h and 46m screen on by using internet all of the time with wifi (from 100% till 1%)

Please release next version on xxella base that has new bootloader

U are really the best one, thanx very very much
[Galaxy S III Android Development] hankhandsome:
what is the headphone sound quality like with perseus ? i listen to music a lot on my S3, and Siyah is best at the moment for me but i'm willing to try other ones
[Galaxy S III Android Development] E.L.E.C.T.R.O.N.I.C:
i use poweramp and befor perseus i used siyah kernel,i feel no difference between these

or may because i'm not very tender aboat it
[Galaxy S III Android Development] normally_crazy:
This ROM didn't install in my s3.

After I selected what was to be installed, it showed installing ROM, but then the phone refused to boot normally. It kept going back to recovery.

Any idea why that happened?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Abyv:
Check the downloaded file. Could be corrupted one?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] hankhandsome:
I also use Poweramp. I might have to give Perseus a spin then, thanks :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] qavro:
The new 8.4 is with the previous bootloader? Or is it a build with the new ELLA bootloader?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] anukilimanoor:
There is no bootloader added. If anyone want to update the bootloader they can flash the bootloader via odin. You can find the bootloader from here
[Galaxy S III Android Development] qavro:
no thank you! i preffer NOT TO install the ELLA bootloader.

one more question: has anyone noticed an improved speed on Contacts and Dialer like the other users of ELLA reported? If it is, it is kernel related ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PIRATA!:
Isn't the new bootloader from XXELLA bad?

Why someone should install it?

I'm really interested in knowing this...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] qavro:
i think the new bootloader places a ! on your screen boot and also prevents some modifications. To revert back to an older bootloader you should go thru an entire ordeal. Maybe samsung is trying to contain the waranty claim spread or something. Bottom line is that i do not want the new bootloader.

So instead of fixing the SDS issue, samsung made it easier to reject your warranty...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PIRATA!:
Well... not me either :)

Can flash over 8.3 without wipe as usual??

EDIT: important benefits in installing this new release as is it only as the old one but based on new XXELLA? is this new firmware so better??
[Galaxy S III Android Development] anukilimanoor:
I'm running with new bootloader. I cant provide bootloader along with cwm zip (I read somewhere that it is risky). Thats why if anyone want to update they can use the odin version.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] anukilimanoor:
You can flash it as usual.. But I always do a clean install.. :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PIRATA!:
Why did you flashed new bootloader after rom?

Isn't better to have old ones??

I'll go for flashing over as usual and hope.

What about my past edit? Did you see it?

The one related to new stuff...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] hankhandsome:
Woohoo ! Update :)

Will flash later, but does anyone yet know if the new CWM Recovery supports the external SD Card ? It's handy if it does as I can put everything on the external, format the internal and do some easy housekeeping. thanks :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] didicola:
probably safer with the new one because no suddent death? time will show!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] qavro:
Updated to 8.4. I preffer the Syiah kernel over the stock one.

In my case it is visible faster than the stock one.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PIRATA!:
What? Can you please be more specific??
[Galaxy S III Android Development] intrudar:
Does this rom have inverted apps!? Coz as long as it says darky rom so Iwas wondering if it is actually!? Anyone...?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] qavro:
Pirata, don't bother. There is already proof that a recent XELLA installation suffered from SDS.

The new XELLA fixes the exynos bug, but not the SDS syndrome. For that to be fixed SOMEONE should figure it out why the SDS appears in the first place. I have serious doubts that even Samsung knows why the SDS is present...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PIRATA!:
I'm really sorry..... what is SDS ?!??
[Galaxy S III Android Development] qavro:
Sudden Death Syndrome

[Galaxy S III Android Development] PIRATA!:
Wait a minute.... so not when the last bootloaders should solve this issue??

Not even on some devices???
[Galaxy S III Android Development] qavro:
No Pirata. A bootloader is like its name: just a loader. Even though a kernel is most probably to fix such a thing (but NOT a bootloader) i have serious doubts that a kernel will fix it, especially if the defect is hardware (people tent to belive that a specific lot of emmc is to be blamed). XELLA fixed the exynos bug though but that is not related to SDS.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PIRATA!:
So? What can we do??
[Galaxy S III Android Development] qavro:
You can start praying. After further consideration i have decided not to give a sh.it.

What will happen will happen.

i mean:

1. if it is indeed a hardware failure (emmc or not) we cant do anything

2. if it is a firmware failure we will find out when Samsung will decide to open their mouth or to release the Exynos sources.

in both cases: praying will help at least as much as the supra-intelligent posts i have read in the 2 major threads about SDS.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PIRATA!:
Haha.. would like to take a read out to those posts.. :p

[Galaxy S III Android Development] qavro:
i've read all about it last night.

i will believe it when i will not see the SDS anymore
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PIRATA!:
In that thread they say that kernel ELLA has the fix and the recovery must be fixed ad well.

Samsung update 7 fixed the issue and so Perseus, but a modded recovery now is needed.

Let's see what happens....
[Galaxy S III Android Development] qavro:
that is what i was thinking. We are going to need a rom with "said" patched kernel (no matter who is made it) and also a patched recovery, otherwise just having a patched kernel will do no good to us and we will keep diying. Phones that is...

Sh.it.ty swiss cheese flaw in the damn emmc firmware...at least for VTU00M.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PIRATA!:
How can we know if we have VTU00M mem?

[Galaxy S III Android Development] qavro:
My next update will be just after anukilimanoor will have all the requirements at hand to put together a rom that will contain a fixed kernel but also a patched recovery. Without it using a patched kernel is not good for me because it's enough to boot once in recovery and the damn emmc is vulnerable again.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mirciulikkk:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] qavro:
i've flashed the new 8.4 but i am still on syiah 1.8.6

Working good for now but this means nothing...My emmc can be safe and not affected (only a specific lot of VTU00M are) or it can be too soon for me to have the emmc wear off.

i am too waiting for an update that should include a patched syiah and a patched CWM in the same package. I am not interested in the new bootloader at all...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] hankhandsome:
thankyou :)

I will probably stick with 8.3 for now as it's not giving me any trouble at all and i'm starting to get some good battery life out of the perseus kernel
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PIRATA!:
Yes I have them both..... What does it mean???
[Galaxy S III Android Development] :
It means your phone can be affected by sds.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] normally_crazy:
So if the emmc bug brick shoes our phone can be infected with sds, should we go back to stock un rooted ROM, so that we can get warranty?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] qavro:
That depends on what kind of SDS. With a totally dead phone only God can tell that you were rooted. If the bug allows your phone to boot, depending on where you live you can loose your warranty. From what i've heard, people in india are already screwd by the Samsung India anyway, even if you are totally stock they seems to tell everybody that was "watter damage" no matter what you do. Have a look at the SDS topic in "Galaxy S III General" forum.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] PIRATA!:
For sds I think we need also a custom recovery ad-hoc for it!

True or you will use hijack from Stweaks (gokhamoral has included the fix inside recovery if you use hijack) ; i will wait to appear one as i am not too fond of the philz one.

Re: [ROM][18 Jan] DarkyROM III [XXDLJ4-v6.1][XXELLC-v8.5][AROMA][Android 4.1.2]

Just installed 8.5 over version 8 without wipe. Working good so far

Just a few things.i installed the no bloatwares this time instead of custom. My "new message" icon has disappeared! How can i get it back?

Also in messaging, my contacts aren't shown, because there is a + sign before the number whereas no plus sign in actual contact.. :s
[Galaxy S III Android Development] pendroz:
Hi anukilimanoor

V8.5 used new bootloader ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] anukilimanoor:
New Message app is not there in new releases. For the contact remove your google account, reboot the phone again configure your google account.

No. If you want to update the boot loader you can do it manually.

What is this New Message app? I am still on 8.4...do I have it now?

Again..it's it good to update the bootloader?

I still can't understand the differences in doing it so or not.

In case..where can I find them? Direct link in first page?

---------- Post added at 08:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:08 PM ----------

I'm sorry...why did you removed the 23 toggle??? I love it!!!

Where can I find it as an external mod?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] anukilimanoor:
Its an app for creating new message, it came along with some of the build but im not remembering which one.

You can update the boot loader in two ways

1. Flash the latest stock ROM (LLA, LLC)

OR

2. Flash the boot loader

Removed 23 toggles because no more support from the original developer. And there is some bugs too..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PIRATA!:
Re: [ROM][18 Jan] DarkyROM III [XXDLJ4-v6.1][XXELLC-v8.5][AROMA][Android 4.1.2]

The New Message app is an extra Message app that you added along with the stock one or you where replacing the stock one?

About the boot loader I works like to know the reasons for updating also..

And for the 23 toggle, how can I get it? Just extract it form the Darky folder I have on my sd and add it to 8.5 once flashed, or what???
[Galaxy S III Android Development] qavro:
Thank God, it is not the new one!

Backup all your contacts with TB and sync them all with Gmail.

Delete them all and delete also all accounts from device.

Start all over adding accounts and syncing contacts.
