Hey over there!

Please include specifics:

1. ROM and GAPPS versions.

2. Kernel version.

3. Modem version.

4. PRL.

5. Exact location you were when called.

6. Previous ROM/Kernel/Modem/PRL/etc

7. Any customizations.

8. What you did to *&#^ it all up. Be honest, now! LOL!

9. EXACTLY HOW YOU INSTALLED PA IN THE FIRST PLACE! Simply doing a wipe isn't good enough. Have to wipe cache and dalvik cache after installing ROM and GAPPS.

i did come across one issue regarding the browser.

The majority of the urls wont connect (webpage is nor available)

I went AOKP and they connected ok.

IDK if its because there are different browsers or what.

any info available?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KBizzle:
I have not run into this issue. Maybe reflash the rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SadieNibblesworth:
If you didn't check to see if the ROM would be accepted as a native, Samsung ROM, then who knows what would have happened.

Are you talking about the root-injected ROM available here - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1774722 ????

Have you tried this - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1904099

Also... how did you obtain root in the first place? Was it *just* from doing that? What version of ODIN did you use? What kind of cable are you using to perform all of these flashing procedures? Be as specific as possible and the friendly people on this forum will help you.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] THORMUNZ:
Yeah I used that one and I used the latest Odin to flash with my original Samsung cable and I flashed the recovery via twrp also I did first go on touchwiz 4.1 jb leak but then I found this ROM and I have gone back to stock ROM to update prl and profile.

Off topic last week my dog ripped my original Samsung USB is there any website or anywhere to get a replacement?

---------- Post added at 12:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:20 PM ----------

I just saw the other part but I was first scared on using odin and yeah how do I do this since there's soo much info also I'm on freeza modem lj7
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SadieNibblesworth:
I'm guessing that you done *&%^'d up when you installed TWRP. There's no physical way in hell that you can trip the triangle counter with a stock-compatible, root-injected ROM.

Also, when you say the "Latest version of Odin" you need to be specific! Version 3.07? 3.04? 3.01? It's something minor, but somebody here may know something we both do not.

The beat and cheapest micro USB cables I've found for my phones (that ALWAYS work for rooting) can be found over at - www.MonoPrice.com

You can also try - http://dx.com/

Follow the instructions and you'll be fine.

Get that cable. You need a good cable if you want to root and use ODIN. Bad things happen without a good cable. Just ask KBizzle or QBKing or any of the famous people on the Samsung S1/2/3 forums.

3. L710VPLI3

4. Not Positive, not seeing it on FREEGS3 rom and I don't know.

5. Minneapolis

6. I've been mostly on previous versions of PA, and a couple stocks ROMS. Haven't touched the modem since I bought it. Never flashed other kernels kernel. Haven't updated the PRL as far as I know since purchase.

7. Just themes; faded green, etc.. I flashed only inverted messaging and gmail for a bit. Really just been stock PA with a few themes.

8. Not sure

9. I never really wiped dalvik or cache after flashing PA or GAPPS, this could be my problem. Seems odd that not flashing cache would somehow disturb incoming calls though... But what the f do I know....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tjr2010:
Quick question. Is it possible to get flash player up and running on this ROM. I know that jelly bean wasn't to have it but when I went to the leak and used it I got it working for some odd reason. I followed the guide where you edit two lines in a script and it worked on the stock Samsung browser. Is there something I can do to get it going?

---------- Post added at 10:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:10 PM ----------

Never mind. Problem solved. Another question. Would the not 2 gallery n camera work. Or are they strictly limited to. Touch wiz ui? The slow motion video feature is dope
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fabzbear:
What "not 2 gallery" are you speaking about?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KBizzle:
If it's a tw system app, it won't work on aosp unless someone codes it to work with aosp. Tw apps need tw framework.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] edisonalvarez:
No aosp ROMs do. You have to flash back to a touchwiz version and update. Then restore back to this beauty :D

I think there was a dual boot option or mod somewhere you can try searching in the development section. This may an option to make it easier to jump between the two.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SadieNibblesworth:
It's great hearing from my longtime friend and ally, Mister Alvarez - winner of the Nobel Prize, you know.

My favourite way of updating the PRL *is* the dual-boot option. On the Samsung Epic I would just do that every month for fun. I do not have a preference for how to do that on the S3.

That being said, I just love using the "Flash to ODIN with the root-injected stock ROM" that I posted earlier to do my PRL updates. I have it down to a science. It only takes plugging in my phone and five minutes. Then I ADB inject TWRP, boot into TWRP, and reflash some AOSP goodness.

There are other ways to update your PRL. There is the "Every PRL ever" link on these forums that was updated a week or two ago. Just search for that and you'll find even more information than you wanted to know about PRL updating.

Kbizzle, Saddienibblesworth or any pro. I get a lot of radio transitions. It goes in and out of being able to get internet i have all roam options enabled since i am out of range sometimes on home network. What would you suggest? Im not saying its rom i meant to ask just advice. It came stock on l710vplf9. Ive left it stock. Would a newer modem firmware help and what is a safe good one. Is the latest JB touchwiz modem compatible with your rom? Sorry for noobish question.

Call Screen and Email App

It has been mentioned once already, but you can't answer incoming call on this because the call, hangup, and respond with text options are all on top of one another.

Also, the email app force closes once you get an email account synced up to it (I synced an Exchange Email). It wasn't doing that on the last version. These two things are really affecting what is otherwise the best rom I've used so far on this phone.

Not trying to come across jerky, just wanted to let you know it seems to be working fine on my end.

As JB is still not official for our device, some bugs may just be from the fact that the current build isn't meshing with your device. My only suggestion is to try a fresh reinstall.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gtuansdiamm:
I was hoping you wouldn't say that

It was a fresh install but things happen time to try again

I think I should supply you with a log cat first though

If you tell me how I'll do it for you

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gtuansdiamm:
Fresh install still doesn't work

I wiped/factory reset 3 times

I wiped cache 3 times

I wiped dalvik cache 3 time

I'm going to try downloading from my comp this time
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KBizzle:
Yeah, I should have noted, do not use a custom kernel until it is updated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SadieNibblesworth:
Remember that the modem chooses the phone. LOL!

Have you ever tried one of those little "reception boosters" they sell on TV? You can probably buy a pack of 20 for $10 on Ebay. If you just need another bar of reception, sometimes they work. Passive transponder/transceiver technology is magickal.

ALSO ALSO - where the hell are you? If you live in the country, it's strange that you'd have that in-and-out behaviour with a lot of open space. If you live in a subway, then that's normal behaviour.

KBizzle can answer the "which modem he/she likes more question" better than I can. In my experience, I've noticed that damn near any modem can work well on any ROM under almost any circumstance. It's practically voodoo to me. I'm a kernel developer, so why don't you ask me something about microkernel structures in the Windows environment?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
Lol I see the irony of my question. Thank you. I had a laugh too. So what drives our my Intel processor you can answer about. Ill PM you :p. So ill leave the stock modem. I had a prob and tried to recover phone modem after i messed a lot up when all i needed was a reactivation... Doh. This was awhile back. Ive long since restored function of my phone and used PA since day one :) Ill look into reception boosters. Im sadly way in mountains in Southern Tier of upstate New York. Great place just mean in the mountains with more roaming than home network. Reception usually one bar yes.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dgn_sandibalz:
All our phones act differently with different firmware. I've seen some folks comment that they get more consistent service with the first stock modem. I find it beneficial to try each one when they are released.

I live in an area with fantastic coverage...except for my house and office, and up until LJ7 I had constant signal searching and data loss. So far LJ7 has been the best for me. This will sound crazy but I'm consistently getting 2M download speed and very little signal searching/roaming. Don't laugh at the 2M download...until that I was only getting 900k.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
On lf9 max ive got was 200kb/s. Ill try Lj7 since im guessimg it came with release of official Jelly Bean Touchwiz.... For our handsets. When i did try modems before restoring phone the first few didn't even give me a signal i thought i was screwed. So i remembered lf9 appeared in about phone on stock ICS and nandroid restored after modem fixed and been on paranoid since. I never tried the touchwiz jelly bean. Ill try flashing LJ7 thanks for the advice.i can always go back to LF9 if all else fails. Btw ive never seen the light of 4g lol. Im just in a secluded area. I heard its maybe 40miles from here but i dont travel much to see it.

Finally got the newest version installed and running just now. Two questions.

1) For those who have OTA'd to the 4.2 update, are there any major differences at this point? I'm better off with PA right? :)

2) The last version I installed (maybe a month ago) I wasn't able to get EX File Explorer to find the SD Card. I reformatted just now so we'll see. Will I have this issue again? I want all my DLs and Pictures to go on the SD card and not the internal space.

Thanks all!

Welp, strange Wifi issue now. It only works and turns on after every 2 reboots. :(

Any halp?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tommydaniel:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KBizzle:
Is poor connection selected in advanced options in wifi or is wifi timeout turned on?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LTV:
Nope, Wifi timeout is at 15 minutes (default)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tommydaniel:
Obviously the Nexus 4, but it hasn't even been released yet. I thought he was asking about some other phone, which is why I was confused. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KBizzle:
I haven't had this issue. Maybe try turning it to always instead of having it time out.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LTV:
Haha sorry didn't mean 4.2 :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
More specifically though did you try setting in wifi options uncheck "avoid poor connection" i find what it finds as a porr connection to be all i have and works if thats not set. It tends to not let me connect otherwise.

On older revisions... much of PA i had issues where wifi would not connect every time or turn on so i would turn on airplane mode then off and try again it helped. Haven't seen that since. If you have any apps like Battery Control it could interfere and you could try disabling any battery apps that control the phone radios to see if it helps. Reboot before testing if issue persists so to be sure settings are that way from boot.

Pretty serious issue with Instagram on this now. The image preview doesn't show or it just disappears and flashes back for 5 seconds in the editing process. I need IG to work for my job so I'm not sure if I can continue with this one right now! :(

Any ideas? Maybe an uninstall and reinstall?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] coffeehandle:
you could take a pic with the stock cam and then open it with IG.

Im having a similar issue. It might just be the app itself

Or just wipe data and see id tht works any kinks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
Im not familiar but how bout going to Paranoid settings in settings and seeing if Instagram os set to anything other than stock pjone dpi etc ie it needs to be 320 on size and and 360 on layout UI. If they differ set them, hit okay and preview see if issue persists.

Other than that try adding Kbizzles build prop suggestion back a few posts. It helped graphic anomalies for me. Also check in the developer options disable hw overlays and force gpu render.

Ill add the build prop to my post but it a few posts back.

Try all that and see if it renders Instagram proper now.

Edit: posted by Kbizzle credit to an unknown soul

I have actually come across another way to fix the flickering, which sticks after a reboot.

I haven't done extensive testing on it but initial usage showed no flickering.

You will need: A build.prop editor. I prefer rom toolbox but use whatever you please.

EDIT

debug.composition.type=dyn

To

debug.composition.type=gpu

debug.mdpcomp.maxlayer=3

To

debug.mdpcomp.maxlayer=2

Doing this will it wipe my contacts, messages, email and general setup that I have? If it's not too much what will it change other than the fact it will bring back the original kernel?

It'll bring back stock font, if you changed it. Hmm can't think of anything else. All the things you mentioned will be untouched as long as you DONT wipe data/factory reset
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fabzbear:
Thanks, I just got allot set up and don't wanna be doing the whole process over again just to get the kernel even though I'm bit getting good battery.

Anyone else can suggest a good kernel apart from ktoonz?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SadieNibblesworth:
Do you have a legitimate reason for another kernel?

It seems a lot of XDA people have this obsession with installing different kernels when they have absolutely no reason to try a different one. As a kernel developer, I find this hilarious, offensive, and amoral all at the same time. LOL!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
I have not experienced a kernel as good as Ktoonsez. To be fair to others i have not tried many. The optimization and options available in Ktoonsez kernel are vast. So I also do not understand either. If one governor doesnt work great or an Io scheduler theres so many more to choose from. Ktoonsez brings much to the table over stock kernel. Even has a wonderful app to do the magic. I like swipe to wake he added amongst more. Knowing all this I see no point to use other kernels myself as it does everything I could have hoped for. I am very thankful Ktoonsez is devoloping on the Galaxy S3.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fabzbear:
Um glad you had a good laugh out of this. As for your statement/opinion, I changed the kernel in hopes of better performance overall. As a kernel developer don't you make your kernels with such goals?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
I shouldn't of posted the above. I apologize it was just adding to the fire. I am certain Nibbles has that very goal you mentioned everytime. Was there anything in particular that made Ktoonsez kernel a bad choice? Maybe i even misunderstood. Did you come from a different kernel and want to try others or Ktoonsez? Going to stock is done with the instructions posted above but if its just kernel you switch. Grab in Ktoonsez first post the kernel cleaning tool. Use that then install replacement kernel, wipe dalvik, wipe cache fix permission reboot.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fabzbear:
You didn't add to any fire.

Maybe I might have had a bad install of ktoonz or a bass governor. I tried a couple though but not much improvements. I haven't done much changes to my phone other than install some apk's.

I just didn't a fresh install and will try it again.

Thanks for your helpful replies.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
Okay glad I didnt offend. I highly recommend the kernel clean tool before kernel install. Reading over in the thread Intellidemand and Wheatley could be decent governors to try. He just added those.
