Everything is running perfect over here! I wonder why certain people have problems. I don't know crap about tech stuff but my gut feeling is that they arnt formatting system in recovery before they instal. OR they are restoring apps & data with titanium back up, when they should be restoring data only.

On another note, I'm using smart keyboard and there is no lag whatsoever. What's trippin me out but I love it is when I'm typing I see a key float across the screen. Don't know how to explain it but it only happens sometimes. Does anybody know what I'm talking about? If so how can I see that more often?

Scott I just want to say thanks for such a smooth and clean rom. Running it on my wifes and my phone and no problems with either one! I promise to donate one of these days. Not working right now but hope to be soon! Also want to say thanks to the people on here cause when I was visiting xda in the way past, there was nothing but arguing and belittling us noobs. But your clean rom thread remains clean and seems like everyone is willing to help!

7 days without prayer makes 1 weak...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NotATreoFan:
I always format /system, /data, and /cache before a flash. I also restore apps with Titanium, but only user apps, never system.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott:
MMM.... GO into settings ans make sure you dont have omsething set in sound to always on or something?

IDK?

Anyone else have any thoughts? Must be one of those burried settings?

anyone?? can you just flash over older version or do you have to wipe?

When in doubt don't be lazy. Just wipe. You wouldn't leave poo on your ass would you?? Wipe it all. :p

I'll take a look. No promises. I dont want to change to much on the next build because I am starting over... And too much change at once can be bad, lol. Eventually I will do it though. Maybe not next version.

Should be fine.

Please remember, this is a stock kernel, unless you are running ktoonz. Stock kernels will turn down the clock if it gets too hot.

If you are playing a lot and reboot, it might be too hot and turn the speed down. Then when you reboot again, it goes up since it cooled off.

Keep that in mind. It's not the Rom. If you want it to stay at max performance when it gets hot, run the ktoonz kernel it should stay cracked up.

But when you restore your user apps, do you check data only? You probably know more then I do. Just trying to help!

7 days without prayer makes 1 weak...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NotATreoFan:
No, I restore user apps + data. That is perfectly safe as long as there's no system data along with it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] V-Ty:
I was always told to just restore data only when restoring user apps. But like I said I've been flashing for a few years and I'm still a babe when it comes to understanding what the heck I'm doing. LOL.

Edit: but for the heck of it you should try it! Never know.

Can anyone get this to work on this ROM? It literally dials a number on mine, used to work fine on previous roms.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sipple31:
Ditto! I had to flash it twice as well. My restore was successful, but severely hosed the ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tedescop:
Love this Rom! Runs great my only issue which doesn't affect performance or battery which has been phenomenal for me is this damn Internet connection when turning on wifi. It does connect and all I have to do is hit cancel but has anyone else had this?

Even on a reboot it stays at 2%
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ilkevinli:
No to all.

No. What I am talking about is when I done using the phone and put it down, the screen doesn't turn off. Stays lit. If I hit the power button it will turn off, but it will no turn off after the set 30 seconds. If I reboot, it will be fixed for a while.

No. I checked that.

Thanks for the help guys it looks like its just me. I am going to wipe and reinstall and test without reinstalling my apps to see if its one of my apps causing it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bsannes:
People that are getting force closes or locks on apps, try and clear the app data.I was running into an app that just wouldn't work went and cleared the data and now it works no problem and it hasn't force closed or froze since

Same problems here with Motomoto. Havne't tried Wasabiwas.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bsannes:
Oh and one question .when you get a text does anyone get the little bubble with the picture of the text icon with the unread count on the lock screen like with ics?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott:
THanks for the donation! It was very generous of you. More than needed but I will not looka gift hourse in the mouth! :D

As far as the F/C issue... IM gonna be blunt... Its a leaked build. Meaning Verizon did not want it because of potential issues. Not sure if I can fix it but I will give it the best ssot any Dev ever has!

But no promises.

1. Thats a bad sign... tells me that may be one of the reasons they passed it up.

2. Yeah, we got that in here already... Just need to find it, lol

Pretty good stuff, heh?

I dont hav emuch plans other than to intestigate hot reboot with the F/C and media scanner. It hink I can fiox media scanner. Hot reboot... Mehhh... May be inhereient to the leak as others have pointed out on other ROMS.

I got a 2011. I will test it on the way home.

Thanks!

Hahahahaha, Glad I am not the only one that happens too! lol

Honestly, everyone uses the phone differntly, differnt apps, differnt radios, differnt pattersn of usage, differnt signal strenght, etc... Thats why you see variances. I have been doing this long enough to this. Years of building ROMS and providing end user support tells me 10 phone with the same ROM but 10 differnt people will give you 10 differnt results.

I have not had 1 F/C, not battery issue, etc etc... And it is very fast!

Another thing to keep in mind. ROM has been downloaded near 2000 times...

If you reall look in the thread, only about 2 real complaints... Media Scanner and hot boot with App F/C. That affects about 20 or less people that posted....

So wiht that and some esimtaions we can say the bugs affect about 1% of all 2,000 users....

Yeah... Very minimal!

Overall I am very happy with the way this turned out :good:

Yeah, that should affect B/T. Did you update Radio and RPM?

I have not seen that yet. One other posted it. I gave some T/S steps and he never posted back.

Seee.... I wonder.... Must be something about the way that app is scanning the SD card.

I think at this point everyone needs to format the SD Card and then copy data back over and Boom! Its fixed.

Donw to 1 bug now :angel:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Coderedpl:
Go to wifi screen, hit menu and select advanced and see if that Internet service thing is checked. Not sure if this will help but it might.

Been running this Rom since the morning and this is what I got so far.

I feel like I used more stuff on there though but I guess not?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jbdan:
It's definitely missing on this version but we haven't figured out whether Sammy intended it or if it just got lost in the rom build. Time will tell

I've had this happen to me a couple times before too. You turn off Picasa picture syncing in the Google sync options and that should fix that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tedescop:
Many thanks you da mañg!

I swear I check that earlier.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NotATreoFan:
Typically a corrupted index. Backup and format your internal SD to fix.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] skiddingus:
It has happened to me too. I always turn off picasa sync now and it has not happened since.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] burpootus:
I used 8 gigs of data in Sept. by flashing ROMs, mostly Clean ROM, due to the gallery syncing. I think it synched thumbnails of my Picasa pics (15k of them) to G+. This can be turned off in Google account sync settings. But it is nice to have all your pics at your fingertips, if you have unlimited data.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott:
Good deal!

You ROM Bouncer you!

Glad you got it working... So I dont have to test it :highfive:

Thanks but I already have a Note 2 ROM. I'll get it from there. I know what needs to be done. I briefly flirted with teh Note 2 if you recall. Put out a killer ROM but... Man... Sprint is SLOOooooooOOOwwwwwwWWWWWwwwww.w...

Format your SD Card!

Another good piece of advice!

Agreed!

There you go!

Thats part of proof!

Initially, before NotATreo fan said it... I was going to say... Corrupt SD card due to constant crack flashing... I had a feeling that was it because I have seen this before.

New OS, new databases, etc... Makes 100% perfect sense!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fawkiPhone:
Idk understand why people don't take the time to just format there system correctly... Not time consuming by any means, and I've never had problems or half the bugs listed by users.

These steps might be redundant but have worked for me since I started flashing.

Wipe data/factory reset

Wipe cache

Format system

Format data

Format Cache

Wipe davlik cache

Wipe battery stats

Fix permissions

Install zips

Wipe data/factory reset

Wipe cache

Reboot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sfobrien:
Good advice maybe little over kill on wipes, but good advice.

Yea your probably right, just gives me the peace of mind, that this mofo is Mr.clean clean.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sfobrien:
I understand. I've Odined back to F2 a few times and did the OTA then flashed. I have had no issues with that method.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fawkiPhone:
I just push everything to my external. I don't really format my SD or external SD unless I really need to.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mayze23:
So formatting data and cache doesn't wipe the phone completely clean including the downloaded zips? How about TiBu if you aren't using an external sd card?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sfobrien:
Same here. I'm using the same SD Card that came with my Fascinate. Have never formatted it. Back it up to computer about once a month.

---------- Post added at 11:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:52 PM ----------

Data wipe does wipe all data except for the internal memory. If you Odin a ROM that does wipe the internal. You can set Titanium to back up to external card or just make a copy of it from internal to external.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jbdan:
I've been through that lol. Wish I cod find the link that talks about all the cwm blob files. That's why. Probably 4-5 GB large. I just ended up deleting all that crap and started fresh. Beware though. Unless you research it and know what you're doing don't mess with the blobs. Unless you plan on losing your backups. Do a search for "cwm blobs so large" or similar
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott:
Amen!

Word!

If something on your system is taking "that" long...

Theres your sign!

Blobs are Asus files?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott:
Updated post #2 to reflect the following
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1ManWolfePack:
Don't delete blobs, as one said previously. Delete the backup from recovery and it will clear out the associated blob files.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott:
What blob files are you guys talking about? Only thing I ever new used a Blob file was the Asus Transformer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1ManWolfePack:
I'm on ULE but I'm posting in here anyways, as many of you CleanROMers debloat the hell out of your stuff. Also, this makes Scott's life easier.

Anyhoo, BA battery life today. Bump charges of 10 mins X 2 on my breaks at work, plus 20 minutes during lunch. Happy man.

Edit: I also bump charged 20 minutes while I showered and shaved. I'm convinced bump charging is key.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1ManWolfePack:
Koush changed the way backups are in the newer versions of CWM. Instead of the .tar backups that was the standard (I believe this was the file type?) the new ways uses these blobs. I'm not the most technical but I'll give it my best. Let's say you make a backup of your setup. Two days later you make another backup. Rather than make an entirely new backup file, the new backup will include just the changes from the previous backup. The "blobs" (I believe) contain whatever changes are from today's backup compared to the previous backup (granted they share similar files/base). So the backup takes less space. Supposed to make backups quicker.

It's late and I'm slightly delirious. It's something like that. I'm too lazy to find the official statement on it, but that's the durp version.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott:
Oh, I didint know that. Asus Transformer series all have "blob" files instead of IMG files so I was mixing the two...

Hey guys I've had 2 S3s that after a month or so the gps stops getting instant locks. At first it works perfectly then after a few weeks the gps stops locking. I've flashed back to completely unrooted stock and the problem still persist. Now Vzw just replaced my S3 for the 3rd time. The only thing I'm doing is loading this ROM, any ideas. I've never formatted system but Odin back to stock does that right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] blulite:
What part of the country do you live in? I travelled to CT this past weekend and thats where I had problems. I installed fasterfix from PlayStore and that helped. I think what may be happening is a problem with Verizon's time setting given the storm. GPS uses satellite signals and time differentials to figure out a location. Once it locks on a hanful of satellites the local time doesn't matter, but locking on inirially requires comparing local (phone's time) to what it gets from the satellites. Fasterfix configures the GPS to use NTP (internet time clocks).

Once I got back to FL I started getting instant lock.

Hey Scott, Happy Vacation!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XRSTOY1:
You can backup without the blob files just change the backup type in the seetings menu to .tar. I only have a couple backups at one time so it works better for me to use the .tar file system.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jbdan:
Thanks for that advice.

Scott blobs I was talking about are for clock work mod aka cwm recovery and I know you use twrp so no worries.

When wanting to backup then wipe internal sdcard and using cwm, the folder is crazy HUGE and takes a year to back up! Even if you only have one backup log in there! I like to format internal sd and external sd every so often. Like reformatting a PC. Clean slate :)

I'm not getting any force closes when an app locks up. But the problem is that instead my phone completely locks up and I have to pull the battery.

I personally recommend using rom manager to make backups, rom manager labels them with the correct time and date stamps.

Recovery has wrong date

Hi,

I have installed this rom and so far it's been good for the few issues. One issue that i'm not sure how to resolve:

when i take a backup, the date of the back up is 1970 not sure how that happened, and it does not matter which Recovery I use, it all started when i loaded latest radio on my previous rom even before installing this rom. now i just can't seem to get away from it. I did a factory reset before installing this one. is there some kind of a fix i could apply?
