idelgado782 posted a nice photo shoot of the Elago Breathe case (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1774853), but since there was much discussion (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1795198) about what color cases match well with "Pebble Blue," I thought I'd post some pics of my Jean Indigo case on my Pebble Blue phone. Color names are getting so creative lately.

Here's a link to the case. $9.99 on Amazon.

http://www.amazon.com/elago-Breathe-Verizon-T-Mobile-Carriers/dp/B008DO84M6

The case feels very nice, and although it isn't rubbery it isn't gonna slip out of your hand. Those perforated hole things are very grippy.

The whole thing attracts lint like a magnet. I brushed it off the best I could for the pics, and it is still noticeable. No biggie, but...

And, as a side note, that last pic was the result of a fumble 2 feet above my bathroom floor, about 3 hours before my case came in the mail. Gorilla Glass is NOT indestructible.

No, the color isn't for perfectionists (I have CDO: It's like OCD, but in alphabetical order, like it should be. :D), but it's not that bad.

That sucks about your phone. What are you going to do?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] jtg007:
Probably leave it and get a Steinhal Curved Crystal screen protector to go over it. :(

Hi. I, trying to use Google play music instead of Apollo as I like the interface better. Anyway when I do my CPU freq goes way up to max setting and the nexus gets hot lags and reboots. With Apollo its like at 200mhts and runs fine. Anyone else get this same issue? I don't understand. I even disabled Apollo but no difference. Thanks in advanced
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] infoflo:
Hi folks,

just bought me a S3 yesterday and i realized there is just 779 MB ram. Where are the other 200 MB ?

What does Samsung say about that?

Is there a kernel or rom out there which allows to have more ram available?

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedyjay:
799mb available to the user (you) and the other 201mb is taken up by system processes.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ajoslaf:
Those megabytes are in system and graphics usage. But if you want to slightly increase your RAM, you'll have to try some other kernels than stock, or other roms... :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] infoflo:
Thanks for the answers, now I understand.

I was a little sceptical because on my sister's HTC One X there is almost a gigabyte available to the user.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
Some ammount of the total 1G RAM is also "given" to the GPU, that's why you don't see 1024 MB as max. free.

It's there, just reserved to the GPU.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jaskaran498:
The 200MB is being used by Android OS (Ice-Cream Sandwich/Jelly Bean) itself:)

Every android phone has this. Even similar ones like HTC One-X.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GalaxyS3man:
I was bit disapointed to that fact aswell, because Galaxy S2 had more free ram than GS3. Why not just have 2GB ram on the device.

Well, till Galaxy S4 maybe then.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arsaw:
2gb ram will be nice. But wth, GS3 with 1gb ram still rock. Enjoy your phone. :D
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akboiboi:
you can free up some ram occasionally in task manager if you are worried about lag due to low free ram which shouldn't be the case. you can also reboot your phone once daily which is what I always do (:

I am able to get 5 hours of screen on of battery life on ICS if I underclock to 800Mhz..But ive read jellybean is quicker but does it improve battery life ?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] d3athsd00r:
5? What do you do? I can easily get 12-13 with 20-30% remaining.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sidneymac:
sorry I meant screen on time
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CZ Eddie:
In my limited experience over the last 48 hours, the battery life seems as good or better than ICS.

Not a huge difference though. Yet.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hallo13th:
If u run aokp cm9 based with power savings (kill data when screen is off) under volt heavily you will lose 1% an hour idle. I have NEVER seen that on any other ROM...especially jelly bean ROMs. And jelly bean lags a while lot more than ICS regardless of clock speeds.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sidneymac:
I lose 0% after three hours on idle during sammy's kernel and stock rom..But the issue comes when I begin browsing.

I constantly get 5 hours of on screen time with 800Mhz underclock - to me it's the best setting for battery life.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hallo13th:
That's amazing battery life. I'll try the same setup.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] lunercrab:
Do u underclock all values to 800mhz? Ive Lowered my values on 192 and 394. Is it safe to lower the higher MHz?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] corythug:
Yes it is. I've lowered all values up to 1512 by 75.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robertobarreradh:
so... real smple question...

how do i unlock my bootloader?... i know... have heard about this paid unlock... is it done remote? any link?

thanks everyone...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jon565G:
Look at my reply in this thread mate, and just change it for the pro. I believe that jinx does remote unlocking, but it's easy enough to do yourself if your technically minded.

No Brain Guide:

This flash is a no brain flash. So stop thinking !!

Coming from Custom ICS :

YOU HAVE TO WIPE OR THE NEW TEARDROP LOCKSCREEN WONT WORK!!

Just put the ROM on SdCard , if you dont already have ROM Settings in ROM Customizer then extract and install THIS as a system app with ROM Customizer. Scroll down in ROM Customizer to Rom Settings and setup wipe etc and install zip from sd with the app.

If it wont flash, wipe in recovery, then flash from recovery.

Once flashed open superuser once before using any apps requiring root!!

YOU HAVE TO WIPE OR THE NEW TEARDROP LOCKSCREEN WONT WORK!!

Please do not report issues without wiping first.

Any issues with flashing ...... follow the guide below first.

Coming from a stock rom:

Flash this HERE

and come back here and follow the above : no brain guide

There are Red, Green and Blue versions of the v4 toggles in Visual Mods should you want more of your colour.

There are also Red, Green and Blue options for the v3 style toggles.

Hey,

I was interesting in using this ROM on a Dual Boot, Is MHL Working on this ROM as its a Samsung Based ROM?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] buttwad:
Nice rom matey, well done.

Can you use jkay 14.1 on this rom??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
No you cant. It would wipe out ripple etc. I wont support mods you have to pay to use properly :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
MHL Should work. Dont think it will install as secondary though.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Thanks. Hope you and the family are ok buddy :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] buttwad:
No you cant. It would wipe out ripple etc. I wont support mods you have to pay to use properly

Like the way you think!

All I wanted to do was maybe change some of the icons ie battery/wifi etc.

But not to worry superb rom and superb battery.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
There are a few batteries under [ICS] Batteries in ota visual mods. There will be more stuff added over time including wifi, signals etc. Just wanted the initial release out.

On that note....if anyone can help with packing some visual mods for ota please shout up. You only need to be able to use 7zip or similar as the app injects images into existing apks. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Oh and try this....

Turn screen on...count 25 tap touches on ripple and see what happens on number 26.... ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sumpf2:
Aaaand nothing happened...

Slow and wait till the ripples are gone or fast? Tried several methods, didnt work.

One thing i found confusing somehow is the way rom customizer and old alliance ota work together.

Both start the same application (rom customizer i think). And from there you can start the old alliance ota. Why not directly start it with the shortcut instead of going the way through rom customizer?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Because ota is being replaced witb com customizer. Its just in transitional period.

You get a wave instead of ripple on 26. But people dont notice it so i wouldnt bother keep trying. I just thought it was cool. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dharmil007:
Hey cant find ROM settings ??

where is it located ??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
In rom customizer. Scroll down

This rom is definitely a keeper for me.. And not only for the s3 ports (that are really a good work, as you didn't simply port a lockscreen).. I really like the entire work you did! Congrats:D however, what can we do to install visual changes through the customizer app? It seems not to flash, but I'm on rom stock kernel..

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
It will come. Personally I dont believe in rushing a rom out that adds nothing to the ones already out there just for the sake of it. You just end up with regurgitations of the same thing. Its pointless. The majority of the lsj roms now for example are near identical give or take a battery icon or something.

Alliance aim has always been to be different. So....it will be out when I am ready ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] malavan:
Yes i am using 4.1 and its and it's marvellous np

I can wait for Glodie magic.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] arunreturns:
Well said.. Of late there have been so many JB ROMS out there with no other difference between them.. When i started using this ROM on 4.1 I figured when JB came i had all the features except multi window in Goldie's ROM.. Truly amazing to have ported all the features of this JB ROM all the way back to ICS..

Keep Rocking Goldie.. :D:D

Precisely. People forget we had lots of this stuff already on ics. :)

Thanks for the great rom :D can't wait for JB version !! :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] TG09:
Still have an issue with the Calendar and also the camera. They are not big issues, but was wondering if people have them too and if there was a fix. Otherwise I will wait for the JB Version of this to come out.

The camera most of the time freezes when you open it, and the calendar crashes.

For the time being I am using Google Calendar and another camera app

Hey Goldie! Can you add what it takes to make a perfect Rom? Like theme manager? Or is that only for cm10?also what is your expected time line? Any progress update would be cool. Like you've been doing.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Well...theme manager is only cm.

I think im ready for beta release. Just a couple of things to tidy up. All theming is not done yet but I want to give you guys something so dropdown and status bar are themed for now. Rest will come in later versions.

So far ive got...

Perfect ink in constant flow

Customisable stock toggles

Brightness slider on/off

Blackberry 10 lock

Jellybean lock

Back to kill and vol rocker from mirko

All the other stuff you see in the other roms

Jobniks camera mods

Pop up browser

Now I dont mod at weekend (family time) so probably Tueaday or Wednesday. Which gives me time to add a little more too :)

I am using Alpha, no battery issue, only one I have is lock screen unresponsive from time to time.

Theme twframework-res and contacts.

Mod mms.

Couple of small id fixes.

Check install script.

Redo volume rocker mod as it seems to skip on any press not just long press. Hard to test as my volume buttons hardly work.

I might leave mms for now and add it from ota later. So...if all goes smooth then maybe I can get that stuff done tonight and tomorrow night :)

Im working as fast as I can but its hard as I only get a couple if hours a night after my kids are in bed. :)
