I agree, re-downloading and installing the apps itself takes a long time, and that is before restoring exchange setting, sign-ins, etc - its a multi-hour process if you have a ton of apps. However, you can always nandroid right before flashing - which you should do regardless - wipe/flash to the new version, and test it out. Or you could dirty flash, cross your fingers, and just hope for the best, it may be less stable but there have been people who have had good luck doing it. If you have issues, then wipe/flash.

Also, I have generally had good luck with Google restoring all my apps automatically when I first sign in after doing a wipe/flash. Although with this latest time (and with my Nexus 7) I ran into the 920 Error mid-restore, which is a nightmare to clear. If the phone doesn't auto-restore then going to a computer and logging into the play store on a web browser will allow me to quickly push any apps that did not make it in the restore process down to my phone.

I have never had issues

selectively

restoring

app data only

using TiBu - never restoring system app data or ones that have "accounts" integrated in Android (see the list in Settings/Accounts to see which apps have this - FB, LinkedIn, Groupme to name a few), picking and choosing the various games/other apps, and for things like call logs and SMS only restoring the XML backup rather than app data. TiBu allows you to customize your restore after you hit the restore all batch operation, and just check off "data only" and unselect any system or account apps.

I am not suggesting or superseding Scott or any of the other developer's instructions here, and everyone's experience is different with an infinite number of variables affecting results - the path with least potential for problems is wipe/flash or even return-to-stock then flash. Just offering my two cents based on my limited experience.

Great rom thanks very much for all your hard work!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] UWRF:
Thanks for the tip, it seemed to help, bit still not the smoothness and fluidity I had on CR 5.6.

Did you have one more idea to try?

The blotches is a known issue with the screen used in the s3. Don't know if other phones have it but it's been a source of concern since launch. Everyone has it to one degree or another and I've seen some claim it gets worse with time. Luckily it's only visible on a black background and usually only in the dark. Ymmv

The battery mods all function Ty good sir
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] npompei:
Scott,

Great job man! Been using certain versions of CR for nearly am entire year now. CR was the first Rom I ever put onto a phone and its been my only! Beer money coming!

Oh and is anyone having unusual battery drain? I was in 5.0 I think last and it was good. Now I am plowing through battery when using media. Like radio, Google music, my fitness app, etc. But it idles like a boss! So not sure if the old "media fix" will work with thus new Rom?

And lastly, I feel like I read about "Talkback" being constantly on? Mine isn't on but it keeps showing up in my notifications. And when I go into accessibility it says off but in my notifications it says it's on. And I can't get it to go away?

Full wipe, dalvik, cache and added new modem...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sinker1345:
Thanks for the updated clean room Scott and thank you rwc95 for the themes, my s3 is now "back to normal"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Halorl:
I'm having the same problem with "Talkback" being on. Happens after a Lock Up, which brings me to my next problem...

Whenever I use the camera with flash it locks my phone up. I've tried it with Instagram, Camera JB+, and the stock Camera app... every time it locks up when the flash is used, and requires a battery pull. When I boot the phone back up Talkback is "on" even though it's off.

The last problem I have is none of my default apps seem to stick. I use Action Launcher Pro instead of Touchwiz, and everytime I reboot my phone I have to re-choose it, even though I always choose "always". Same with my messaging program (I use Sliding Messaging Pro instead of Stock)

I installed over Cleanrom 6r2 with MB1 firmware. I formatted cache, dalvik, system, and DATA, and then installed Cleanrom. I also upgraded to MF1 firmware.

Any suggestions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ImYoungxD:
Battery drains faster while in use than previous version with the same settings.

Battery charge is also slower than previous version
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Do a complete full wipe. Factory data reset. Do not install backup data.

---------- Post added at 02:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:52 PM ----------

Give the rom time to settle. A few days it should level out.

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Halorl:
I did. I just forgot to put Data there... Formatted everything and started from scratch... no backup of anything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Did you flash rom and firmware in the same session? Try wiping dalvik cache and reflashing.

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Halorl:
Different Session. Flashed before I flashed CleanRom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
I know people were having issues with the camera and updated firmware. Might try flashing the old firmware. I'm on mb1. It's worked great for me and I see no reason to update.

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Addiso:
Yeah but since he's on the mf1 base rom now, he's going to need mf1 firmware, the mb1 firmware will just make his camera unusable instead of just freezes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Didn't think of that. I use the note 2 camera and no issues so far. I never use my camera though...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] UWRF:
Apparently the creator of the ROM disagrees with you, IN8skillz.

I had the issue with Talkback also. I cleared data on the app and rebooted to resolve it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MuGGzyx:
Love it!

A quick question on the modems and such..

My wife has a box stock S3 and sitting next to me she gets considerably better reception than me. I can have like just the tiny single sliver/bar, and she will have 3-4 (we live in BFE). Is it possible that this ROM is the difference? Do I need to flash a different modem, or whatever a "rpm" is?

Currently baseband ends in MB1 if that helps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rwc95:
Yeah pm me this stuff or use my thread lol, post a screenshot over there and I'll look into it.

Has anyone tried bonestock volume boost with cleanrom 7? I was wondering what the results are.

Yep need the MF1 link should be back a couple pages

EDIT: here ya go http://invisiblek.org/d2firmware.html
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Every phone will be different. Some get better signal on mb1, some on mf1. Try them out and see which 1 works best for you. You need to flash the radio and rpm for signal test.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dmudd:

Just download triangleaway and it will be normal, it just means that you have unlocked your bootloader
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] s197:
Tested camera with flash, no lockup. I don't see a talkback notification either. I noticed some high battery drain but after a reboot and a full charge it's a lot better. High media use always seems to be an issue after reboot with these TW ROMs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hank3fan:
I had that problem a long time ago. What I was told to do is go to root browser or any app similar and on each folder of your extended sd card add a file named

That worked for me

I just tried to do it and for the life of me can't remember what I did to get it. Have you charged your phone since flashing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jihoonie:
I'm pretty sure triangle away doesn't change the device status showing modified. It resets the flash counter which you see in download mode.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] GalaxyS3IsMeh:
Well those are my quadrant scores... oced to 1.9 ghz on performance governor. All apps closed. Kind of a noob so what am I doing wrong...?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott:
Yes, the ROM includes the Kernel. Just flash ROM and you good.

The download link is to the SOURCE that I used to build the kernel. Per the GPL I have to give out the source when I build from it. It allows people to download what I did and change it up. Just like I did when I downloaded the source from Samsung. Its good for everyone!

Status bar or pop up? Or bother?

If its pop up then read the OP. You have to dial a number or something.

The Status bar on-going notification should disappear after first boot.

Thanks man, glad you like!

Hmmmm.....

Just looking at the status bar tells me you have things running in the background. I do all Bench testing with a fresh install, no acounts set up, apps sided loaded and anything like auto-rotate, auto-brightness, etc turned off.

Also, I know this will sound crazy.... Real crazy... BUt I get better scores when I leave it On-Demand! I know, strange!

Can you remove CRT without reflashing? Getting screen flicker with it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott:
You can... You seemed to be pretty smart on the Rezound so I will explain this...

The CRT Animations is just a change to services.jar.

You can open the ROM, grab services.jar and services.odex from /system/framework/ and push them to the corresponding folder on the device.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hopesrequiem:
Edit edit. Root explorer was flawless. Thanks buddy. No reflash for me!!

This will work on 2.0 and 2.1

You're the man but I woke up a little and did it the original way you had said. Really simple. Transfer those files, delete the originals , reboot and done!

2. The wallpaper? I changed it by accident and can't find it anymore.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] npompei:
Hmmmm weird. I disabled, restarted and it came back. I force stopped did the same. I have it forced, disabled and data cleared and still came back! It's a freaking nightmare because it's the worst app ever. It's so hard to control the phone. Man its annoying!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] santas16:
I have created a flashable zip that adds the original CleanRom Seven wallpaper to your wallpaper selector. Seen a couple requests to get it back, now you can try other wallpapers and come back to it.

Scott, I hope I am not stepping on your toes, figure this would stop any more requests for the default wallpaper.

First of all I wanna say that this rom is AMAZING! this rom is ridiculously fast. My first time ever using CleanRom and there is no way im switching back to any other ROM for a WHILE...

But does anyone know if there is any possible way for me to get the hack where I can use Volume Up/Down to skip tracks when the screen is off? That's one of my favorite little hacks, especially when I'm driving and I have my phone plugged into the car stereo. Thanks!

Just curious if any of the themers have got any AOSP themes running yet . Love Scotts work , have ran CleanRom for months . I was looking for the stock status bar icons (3G , 1X , 4GLTE, data arrows and battery) in ICS blue , as well as the clock . Thats the only changes I want done . I attempted to edit them in paintshop pro but it for some reason the icons get distorted when I try to edit them or even view them in PSP . Its an older version which Im suspecting is causing the issue .Any assistance would be appreciated .

Worked for me also, but the Aroma installer hung after I applied the patch. I waited and the progress bar never filled. After a battery pull and restart, the volume BLASTS now. I selected the 100% increase option, but probably should have picked the 50% option.
