[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Not unless you can find the rogue app. It is not the rom. Cleanrom is as close to stock as they get. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kyle1087:
I know its not cleanrom. I've always tried to stay close to clean rom as its hard to beat in terms of stability!

In your Google account turn off Picasa sync if you haven't already. It's probably trying to sync with your Google account and failing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tsachi:
You can try removing your external card if you have one. Corrupt files on the card can cause either media or gallery to work overtime. Another option, as someone else suggested, is auto sync. Check that you don't have picasa or Google+ set to sync.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mike.d:
Just wanted to say thanks to scrosler...dude, you rock!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mystique:
That is due to WiFi uploading.

By default gallery syncs with picasa.

I've been running Scott's roms for quite a few devices now. Recently I was running something else for a month or so and I just flashed back to clean rom 7 last night. I forgot how nice and smooth it was. I am currently using Google Voice for my voicemail. I have a Verizon voicemail notification on my status bar. I know there is a way to remove it but I can't think of it off the top of my head. Does anybody know how I can I remove the voicemail notification symbol on my status bar?

Thanks in advance!

I am running and have been running CleanROM for over a year now and I love the stability and battery life but I want to try something new. Is there something you guys could recommend that is close to CleanROM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] spiderj:
I have the same question. I have been on synergy since the last release and looking to just update to something newer and supported. I was looking at carbon but not sure i am in a place right now to be flashing nightlies and keeping up with updates. Figured i should stay with TW but not sure which Rom I should choose. Some insight would be great.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Not good to suggest other's stuff on threads but there are plenty of good tw roms available. Bonestock, beans, obsessed, and some great ports like moar and the people's rom. The most stable you are going to want to steer clear of 4.3 based roms.

Snagging the newest firmware (VRBMF1) and the newest CR7 right now. Been using CR for over a year now, and can't bring myself to use anything else. It's the best. Hope the newest one is just as good :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RichTJ99:
Does CR have the feature that lets you forward & reverse songs when the screen is off with the vol + & vol - ?

Is there a center clock mod for this ROM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] helobubba88:
No.

No.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Juice3250:
There are several stable 4.3 ROMs out there. I've tried most of them. Pm me for my opinion on them. But more importantly, don't be afraid to try them yourself and see.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] skyss07:
Just install it and I love how my phone response so fast and stable. For me, this is one of the best rom I have install in my phone. Credits to the developers, hope it will have an update.

That's a good news.

I flashed this last night and I have been experiencing a pretty good lag sometime when going from an app back to the home screen. It takes a while for Nova to reload - even to the point that there is a thinking circle on the screen while it loads. Any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Sounds like a dirty flash to me. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bionik9:
Maaaaaan... I spent 5 minutes in CWM wiping everything! Wipe data/factory reset x 2, dalvik, fixed permissions, blah blah blah...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Did you restore apps with data. Try wiping Dalvik and cache again and reboot. Should wipe system and cache on clean flash also. Fixing permissions is only required and does anything on dirty flash when app UIDs don't match. I never have fixed permissions on thousands of flashes. It is a waste of time. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bionik9:
I'll give it a whirl. Thanks! I did restore apps with data. Bad idea?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Restoring data is a crapshoot. Sometimes it works and sometime it doesn't. Not much different from a dirty flash. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] neyenlives:
Today I had a strange occurrence. Toggled wifi on and the moment it went to scan for available networks it rebooted. When it came back up wifi was still on, but it refused to automatically connect. I went in and scanned for networks and had to manually choose the open network that it used to auto connect to. Wifi then worked.

Got home, wifi still on. Won't auto connect to my wifi. Manually connected it and it asked for the password like it was the first time.

It's like whatever stores the info for saved networks got wiped out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bigbear6708:
just finding this ROM. got my s3 about a month ago, immediately put slimrom on it..never gave stock or TW a fair chance. if I get some time later and have a good internet connection I will DL and flash clean rom!

(posting to hold this thread so I can track eventual updates)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenmorgan:
You should flash this rom, it is still the best one out there imo. I've been running this rom since I got my phone 1 yr ago. I would never taint my phone with one of the other ones .lol. I have not had a single problem, and I would say my phone is still smokin fast and it has great battery life.

Once again , thank you Scott. Hopefully someday we will have another great one to flash.

problem with apex

I'm having a problem with Apex in CR 7. The phone click an auto answer feature doesn't work. E.g. I hit the I'm driving choice and nothing happens at the other end. Has anyone had this problem and know of a possible solution?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Hopefully someone does because we don't support 3rd party apps. Need to go to their thread. Has nothing to do with rom. It is the launcher install. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tlegower:
I absolutely love this ROM. I tried out a couple others, but keep coming back to this one.

The only issue I've had so far is my phone randomly reboots. It doesn't appear to be anything specific that makes it reboot. Sometimes I'll be using Google Maps & GPS in my car and it'll reboot, but other times it'll just be sitting on the table doing nothing and it'll reboot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Nothing in rom that would cause that. I would Odin back and start from scratch. lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tlegower:
Thanks. I guess it could have been caused when I restored apps with data. I know that sometimes restoring app data does weird things.

---------- Post added at 11:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:48 PM ----------

Do you think I need to use Odin to fix it? Or just wipe and re-flash through recovery?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
I would wipe data, dalvik. cache and system and reflash first. If you dirty flashed up front that is probably the problem. I never restore data of any kind. Only restore apps. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] t0adman:
Anyone successfully unlocked their GS3 with CleanROM 7 so it can be used on other carriers? TIA
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Don't have to unlock. It is a world phone. Just need to be able to make APN change and stick. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] t0adman:
Well sir, how would one go about doing that (or is that not possible)?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Look in the Q&A threads. They tell how to do it there. Need a couple apps I think May be a thread in this development forum also.. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kujayhawks77:

Exchange Setup

Hi All. I am having some trouble with MS Exchange. I can get it to work using Push Mail but not using the stock Samsung app. When I put the same credentials into the stock app it takes them, but then it just hangs. I get the little spinning arrow in the email client and it just never goes away. Any thoughts?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] byproxy:
i don't suppose anyone has an alternate download for this rom. i'm having a hell of a time with the main download site. have tried on the pc and the phone and after an hour wait (very slow download) i get a failure message.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
My average is 30-45 minutes. Dev Host is time and uasage dependent. Scott is not putting these Legacy downloads on his server. Have to deal with it unless Someone PM's you a link. I never recommend phone for download. If use phone use Firefox, Opera or Chrome. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] byproxy:
is it possible (via app or mod) to get user profiles on this rom? i liked using the profiles when running CM10 and find myself missing them dearly now.

in particular i like having a "secure" and "insecure" profile such that one has a pin unlock and the other has the simple slider unlock.

thanks for the info!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Has to be based on Android 4.2 or above. :cool:

I need help. I have Clockwork Recovery, and I think I soft bricked my phone. I can get to the recovery screen, but nothing past that. I tried using Rom Manager to upload a new rom and it totally failed me.

I want to upload a new Rom, but I don't understand why CleanROM is in a zip format, I cannot get ODIN to upload it to my phone unless its an MD5. How do I do this? I have been reading pages of data and there is so much information I'm more confused now than ever before.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Never flash a rom using Rom Manager. It is known to fail. All roms are in zip format. Recovery is made to flash zips. Reflash recovery. I and most devs prefer TWRP. Odin is for signed image packages and not for flashing rom zips. :cool:

Anyone know what could be causing my lock screen shortcuts problem?

When I go into the settings, I click the plus button to set up a new short cut, it force closes settings. I have lk and running a slightly modified notification bar, but no other changes.

Any ideas what could have caused this?

I am trying to avoid a reinstall on the ROM

EDIT: figured it out. Found that the contextprovider.apk app that I must have deleted at some point, controls that. So I how that helps anyone in the future.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sipock97:
My wife's phone does that and hers is stock not rooted.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
If stock does it there is for sure nothing we can do. It usually caused by undervolted custom kernels. :cool:

cant get apex features working

At least two apex phone call features won't work as they should. The auto answer menu doesn't do anything. For example if I;m driving one of the answer choices is "I'm driving." I select this and nothing happens. I tried it calling my phone. The other thing that fails is the selecdtion to not blank the screen during calls. It does it anyway.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Apex is not supported by Cleanrom. Rom is basically stock. Need to ask question in Apex thread. Third party apps and/or launchers are not supported by us. We don't test or use Apex so have no clue. :cool:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Synergy and Cleanrom have stock MMS. Can always swap out Beans or Bones mms apk. They have been modded. I don't do group so have no clue. Have Hangouts for group. :cool:

Bluetooth Streaming issue?

I've been trying to do a search in this thread this morning, to figure out if it's been reported, but search is temporarily down... has anyone noticed a bluetooth stutter when attempting to play music over bluetooth? I have a 2010 prius that works perfectly on CM 10.1.3 with bluetooth, but when using CR-seven, it's nothing but stutter.... both mp3 and streaming.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Probably still running dirty from CM. Cleanrom is basic stock with a couple minor mods that have nothing to do with Bluetooth. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droid0351:
Can we still get ota updates with this rom, even if we are running a custom recovery?

Edit: Never mind, I found my answer. I need stock recovery. I should have known that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tsachi:
I haven't had any problems with Bluetooth playback. I do get occasional disconnect after a couple of minutes and then it reconnects, but that happens with other devices / ROMs so I think it's some reset from the car that has to do with SMS transfer.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] amaury48:
Just have to say, this is my go to rom. Not to bash the other great devs (who do wonderful work) but I have flashed just about every rom available for the s3, and every one of them has a least a quirk or two. Don't know about anyone else, but if you want a rom where if flashed as instructed to in the op, everything just works. That's what a rom should do, after all why buy a new car that doesn't run on all cylinders. Will wait patiently for the next update, and only install it after scrosler works his magic.

Thanks for a wonderful piece of work.....

Can we use the xposed framework app(s) on this rom? I've seen some that say they work on AOSP roms but wondered if some work on CR since it's TW based.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Yes. There is framework for Xposed. Not sure if framework is same for AOSP base but there are hundreds of modules that work with TW, :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Bassmas5:

Does anyone have a mirror for clean rom 6 r2, my backup went bad on me and I really liked the mods available with that version as opposed to clean rom 7. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XRSTOY1:
MD5

I have downloaded this rom 4 times and each time I get a MD5 of D254E671D2BC9489BA27FEAC42A048ED

Not the 6B9C58A64ACA02F47E33944FC3777FC1 [/U] Scott shows any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Have a couple options. The md5 may be wrong. If downloading by phone that could be problem. I never phone download and never ever check MD5 on rom. Only kernel that not compatible with phone such as international and modems. Make backup. If can unzip it is safe. Flash anyway only thing happen is won't boot. Then restore backup. Rom can't hard brick a phone. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] antawnm26:

You need to ask Verizon for an update first :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] squidmaster:
Decided to try out KitKat from Kang (that won't make for a good acronym....) just to see what the new android is like. Horrible! Missed calls, inoperable camera, constant reboots, and worse battery life. I then went between three other ROMs that just couldn't stand up to CleanROM.

I've learned my lesson, and I'll never stray from CleanROM again!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sfobrien:
It is hard to beat Scott's work. One factor in my next device update will be based on what Scott is using and building for.

I would stay away from a 4.4 builds for now. Best bet going for the S3 is if and when VZW releases 4.3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tlegower:
Has anyone had trouble using DLNA on their S3 with CleanRom?

I was trying to use it today to connect to my receiver or PS3, but when I went to Settings->More settings->Nearby Devices. The entire page is greyed out. I tried tapping on File Sharing a few times hoping that would unlock it or something, but no. I read somewhere to try cleaning the data from Nearby Devices in All Applications, but I can't even find Nearby Devices there.

Anyone else have this issue? Or even better anyone else know how to resolve this issue?

THANKS!

I just read on Phandroid that the 4.3 rollout has begun for LTE devices. Soon, maybe...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 99_ls1_z28:
Does anybody have a mirror for this ROM? I tried downloading it like 3 times and fails every time.. and downloads soooooo slow.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] th3godf4th3r:
i know scott does not do any support for this anymore but i have been getting terrible battery life, sometimes the phone turns itself off automatically and some apps are having trouble running (snapchat is the biggest)

anyway what can i try to fix this because i love the rom just am frustrated by these problems.

if i backup with TB go to recovery, should i delete dalvik cache, wipe data/factory reset and thats it or more? less?

honestly i have to say the snapchat issue may be something with the rom, most times when i open it it says like cannot open camera or something and you have the option to exit or cancel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] technomom:
Might be your device or the battery itself.

This is gonna sound crazy, but have you tried another battery? I've found that the Samsung batteries definitely have a short lifespan. Newer batteries last longer than the original equipment.

Also, the turning itself off seems to be a hardware thing, maybe, unfortunately, a prelude to the Sudden Death Syndrome that some of these phones seem to be prone too. Is your phone still under warranty? Mine wasn't when my phone eventually shut off and refused to power on again, but when I pled my case to Samsung, they actually replaced the main board without charging me. Not sure if they'll still do that, but it may be worth asking Samsung Support.

TL;DR - What you're seeing probably isn't related to the ROM itself, but to the device and/or its battery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] th3godf4th3r:
yeah i actually just got an Anker battery from amazon and it has been a little better but not too much difference. It hasnt done that in awhile so i dont think i will go that far, ill end up upgrading soon anyway

it always seems that media server or android os is always eating up battery.

I dont think i ever had any of these problems with earlier versions of cleanrom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Try wiping everything and reflash for the shut down and app problems. Battery life sucks on all roms right now because of the google updates. I was getting 2 days and now lucky to make one. Shutdown can also be caused by a custom kernel that is too undervolted if using one. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] th3godf4th3r:
when i restore with TB should i exclude any apps or back up all system apps and data or what?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Never restore system apps and i never restore data. Only the apps. :cool:

Do you have a backup for when you had the stock kernel?

If so, you can advanced restore just the boot.img in recovery.
