[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thisiskindacrap:
​

Requirements

These mods are intended for a rooted Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III SCH-I535 running a TouchWiz-based rom.

At least 100mb of free space on the phone's internal storage is required for backup and temporary installation files.

As of Version 1.4, all versions of TWRP are not recommended for installing these mods. TWRP does not properly run the installation scripts which can result in boot loops, force closes, and/or bad backup files. This post will be updated when a reliable version of TWRP is released.

As of Version 2.0, these mods are made for Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean and no longer support ICS.

Version 2.6 has been tested on stock rooted odexed & deodexed VRBLK3 roms using CWM Touch 6.0.1.2. I have also verified compatibility with the following roms:

CleanROM 5.0 (Deodexed VRBLK1)

CleanROM Lite Edition 4.0 (Deodexed VRBLK1)

JellyWiz RLS 13 (Deodexed VRBLJ1)

Galaxy MOD RLS9 (Deodexed VRBLK1)

Jelly 'Beans' Build 5 (Deodexed VRBLK1)

TaStEoFbEaNs 4.0 (Deodexed VRBLK3)

SynergyROM Revision 125 (Deodexed VRBLI5)

When prompted by the installer to select the build being used, choose the build of the rom and not the baseband if they are different.​

What's New

2.6 Updated 12/8/2012

Added support for leaked build VRBLK3

Updated Lidroid Extended Quick Setting Toggles with additional toggles for Android Beam, Blocking Mode, Driving Mode, Lock Device, Multi Window, Power Saving, S Beam, and Smart Stay. This was made for Android 4.1.2 so not all toggles are functional, ie. the Multi Window toggle works but does nothing, the S Beam toggle doesn't work, the Screen Brightness toggle can't switch between Auto and Manual, etc. Use the new Lidroid Settings app to configure the toggles. Credit goes to lidroid for the update and wanam for porting it for Samsung Jelly Bean roms.
