For the wallet hack, I want to manually edit the build.prop

1. I can't find it.

2. Can I do it on build 4 without boot problems?

Sent from my SCH-I535
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddurandSGS3:
i used the script method (on PA and AOKPB4) and wallet has been running without any problems.

i havent used it in a store yet with aokp, but i use NFC and that works.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] abissel22:
I know wallet will have no problem. Whats the script method though? You're sure it works without boot problems? I don't want a brick x)

Sent from my SCH-I535
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddurandSGS3:
The script method is in the OP of the wallet thread in the development section. It accomplishes the same thing I believe.

I've done it on paranoid android too.

My wallet is trying to update though, not sure what i should do.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aznguyen316:
build.prop is under /system

I just set up my google wallet on build 4 yesterday. If it updates, go into store and uninstall it will remove the update but it will leave the flashed wallet there. You'll know if you got updated if it says the device is not supported etc. Latest patched wallet like r79 from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1769083

I used htc_jewel changes as some reason the Nexus one wouldn't show the flashed wallet. Set up your cards, change back build prop to stock and nandroid it with wallet notation just in case you forget to reset it upon a new rom.

I keep getting NFC disabled error even though it is active. I don't get it.

Installed, added the 3G patch, everything works perfectly.

1st edit: stupid question

2nd edit: generally stupid and didn't understand why sound wasn't on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] th3taman:
Wow, you are mixing things here and you are going to make yourself dizzy! :eek:

It's good you did the IMEI fix. Ok, I'll try to make sense of this.

1. Radios are completely separate of ROMs, Gapps, patches, themes, or anything you flash. They won't impact any of that stuff. You are simply updating the radios. Flash independently always.

2. JustinBeans Inverted Gapps all-in one specifically tells you to wipe if installing first time. If you dirty flash and aren't experienced, don't be surprised to have problems.

3. The 3G radio patch should be flashed after flashing the ROM and gapps. I would boot up, then go back to recovery and flash later. It's supposed to better handle the 3G/4G hand-offs and 3G signals...it's all dealing with RIL I believe.

4. Google Wallet won't work on SG3 for VZW because their asshats. Anyway, you can fix by modding build.prop and faking out what device you are doing. There are some zips to do this. You really should read up on this before doing...just so you know what it is. I personally have so few Google Wallet locations, I haven't messed with doing it.

5. Don't use Wifi Direct? So can't answer. Don't use NFC bump so can't answer. But I know some, but not all, have had some problems with NFC on this ROM.

AOKP is going to have more issues than an ICS TouchWhiz ROM. With your blurring all that together in your paragraph, I question if you should read more first? Of course, you could always nandroid and if you screw stuff up you could do a restore, lol.

EDIT: Well crap, guess I typed all that out for nothing. :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MasterPoppy:
Well, thanks anyway. Gapps flashed fine dirty and I did the patch and all that after booting into AOKP.

I had a problem though after installing this, not sure if the ROM caused it. I went out after I had flashed my phone and as soon as I was out on the street a bunch of women started chasing me. Now I wouldn't mention it here if it weren't for the fact that I turned on the swagger toggle. Do you think it was that or just my old spice activating?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] flash_27:
Running great. I haven't really tried the 3G yet but I also flashed the fix.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MasterPoppy:
Found a minor bug. When I go to performance and try to change the governor and i/o scheduler everything reverts back to normal after reboot even though I have "set on boot" on.

I always have this issue on dirty flashes...try a clean flash and go from there

---------- Post added at 01:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:07 PM ----------

Stock kernel? Or custom kernel? Any mods other mods? Clean flash or dirty? Just helps when truing to track down the cause of things
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fix-this!:
both stock kernel and or leankernel / faux. happens on every aosp rom i try. it works fine on beans 13 touchwiz. and it was a fresh install, no dirty flashing. this is the only bug that's keeping me from using aokp.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MasterPoppy:
fix-this!: Do you have the 3G patch? Maybe that could fix it. Alternatively you can check your radio. It's probably G7 or HD but if it's not flashing one of those into your phone might also fix it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] flash_27:
I wonder if the 3G patch with other AOSP roms.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] flash_27:
I noticed that wifi is a bit weak on this rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MasterPoppy:
Wifi is meh, I can't get bluetooth to work. I'm sure everything will work fine after the OTA JB is released. It'll probably be a while though. There's announcements that they're being worked on but I see it as a month if we're super lucky and up to 6 months.

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/34789-wifi-issues-with-cm10aokp-after-sep-the-11th/

i found this on rootzwiki and it describes my issues to a tee. somethings funky with the jb wifi driver or it's kernel related.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] GalaxyS3IsMeh:
Guys I actually know how to fix this. The ROM defaults to an option that says it will disconnect from the network and revert to data if the connection is weak. While in the WiFi tab go to advanced settings and check no for that option. It worked for me. Cheers!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dvaderx:
My wifi works fine, but I can't get my bluetooth to work at all.

I have a motorola h730

it connects & pairs

but never passes any audio (mic or earpiece)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MasterPoppy:
Mine doesn't pair, could be user error though. The wifi stopped when I decided to flash to the HD driver. Maybe I need to reflash the 3G fix? Not sure if it's a kernel patch or a patch for the rest of the ROM. I've got KT747 on it now though so IDK if they're compatible.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cgulliver:
Is the HD driver in the CM source yet?

Use kt747 kernel it has an option for this
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddurandSGS3:
you can customize your virbation somewhere in the settings, cant remember where exactly at the moment though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jakereeves31:
But not for the intensity.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] trafalger888:
You can with the kt747 kernel and this is the only way this can be done...to my knowledge at lease
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mharrall:
Alarm with no sound

Ok I have looked through the thread and have not seen any one talk about this. I just flashed to AOKP Build 4 from Sep 29th and my alarm works but only in vibrate mode no sound. I have wiped everything and reflashed and have the same out come. Any help is welcome thank you
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddurandSGS3:
take your alarm volume slider and slide it from 100% to 0 then 0 - 100%.

It should work after that.

That worked thanks a million
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Flashing this for a friend today on his S III. My phone is a S II so i am unfamiliar with this section and want to give him the best setup on his phone. Which kernel works best with this rom, modem, etc?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] trafalger888:
Kernel wise kt747...just boot into the ROM the first time then install the kernel or you will boot loop...I've been using the HD radio non problem but there are varied reports of who likes what radio better

Had the same issue, and in my own experimentation......found the above to work for me as well.

Is this on par with cm10? I would like to try this out thanks

I Have been Using Build 4 since it came out and like the rom a lot however it has started doing fun things i now get process "x" has stopped you can put just about what ever you want in for x as lon as it is the app you are currently trying to use ie phone, browser, play store ..... has any one else seen this i notced there were some issues back on build 2 but no chatter since then
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] OutdoorOBW:
I don't have that problem. Did you do a clean I stall with build 4? If you did I would try doing it again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mharrall:
Yes I wiped Delvic ? Data and Cache :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Brian Gove:
Fix permissions, that generally helps when you get a lot of FCs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] OutdoorOBW:
Try doing a factory reset, cache and delvic cache.

---------- Post added at 08:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:21 PM ----------

This too. Every time I install a new build I wipe cache and delvic cache then fix permissions.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] le0.br4zuc4:
I just got myself a GS3 on VZW, I'm currently running JellyWiz but I really miss AOKP. Someone said that pictures taken with Android's stock camera app aren't as good as pictures taken with Samsung's camera app, can anyone confirm this?

I hope isn't true so I can use this ROM.

Thanks a lot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] th3taman:
If you read up on Android and tech news, it's been known as of late that HTC and Samsung have been delivering better cameras than stock AOSP, which is what AOKP is based on. An improved camera is something that many of us are hoping, well at least I am, will be delivered with in the next major update to Android.

So yes, camera will not be as good as on a TouchWhiz ROM. You just have to try it out the ROM and camera to see if it matters enough to you to stay away from AOKP.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] le0.br4zuc4:
Very good, thank you!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddurandSGS3:
echoing this.

the camera works and you might not be able to tell the pictures side by side. (stock vs AOSP)

If youre not a photographer, the differences are probably negligible. just speaking generally, im not a photographer.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kevinb77:
I just did a full system restore yesterday due to my NFC not working on this ROM. I used Odin and the root66 method. I tested everything and then did my backups. I did a full wipe and flashed aokp 4 Everything was great. When I got home I flashed lean kernel and the 3g fix (for good measure) . Stopping in between to make sure both were fine. After I flashed the 3g fix I rebooted and now I no longer have data (just wifi). I will occasionally get the "R" over my data signal, but nothing more. This is my work phone and I need data to function 100% of the time. Any suggestions for a fix?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] OutdoorOBW:
Sounds like your IMEI might have got wiped. Have you checked that? If your IMEI is still there just try a new install. I flashed the 3g fix and think my reception is worse. I live in a fully covered 4G area but have noticed more drops with 4G/3G after flashing the fix.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kevinb77:
My imei is gone! I was lazy and didn't do a backup since I had never had that problem before. So do I have to whip out Odin and restore again?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] trafalger888:
Verizons backup service
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] OutdoorOBW:
Unfortunately a simple Odin restore will not help. Since you don't have a backup you will manually have to inject your IMEI back on to the phone and then more than likely will be stuck on roaming for data. There are a few threads here on how to "fix" your IMEI. I also want to say that someone posted a tool that will let you actually let you inject your IMEI back on to the phone and be 100% working.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kevinb77:
Any ideas where I can get the link to that tool? Thanks for your help btw.

If that doesn't work you will need to flash back to a TW ROM and turn it off.

I had Verizon turn off back up assistant on my account and now the texts are still coming but now they just say "DELETE" or "00", I wonder if I can stop them? The rep had me going to a menu setting for backup assistant but I didn't seem to have that setting....

If I can't stop them I may have to use a different ROM, I get them all thru the night.

I'll do a quick search here in a bit, but is anybody having trouble with browsers? The stock browser works, however when I updated Opera last night, I get the "The app will not start, because there was a problem during installation. Please reinstall the app." Not only that, I downloaded Chrome, and get the message similar to that "Chrome did not install completely/correctly, please uninstall and reinstall" or something similar. Firefox also freezes/won't load on startup. Have tried deleting all data, uninstalling, etc...nothing.

Anyone know how to optimize battery life on this rom? Coming from Clean rom 2.5 I was getting 4 hours screen time and lasts the whole day... Does this ROM's battery life compare or come close? It's my first AOSP rom and I'm loving it minus the battery life and LED notification not working
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] OutdoorOBW:
Everyone will have a different way to optimize battery life. Just play around with different governors and see what works for you. Also the LED notification is working. At least for me and I have yet to hear of it not working for anyone else.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Nopi45:
I can't wait for build 5!!! Just say in!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] th3taman:
You can mess with things all you want but most will tell you that you are going to get better battery life with a TouchWhiz ROM vs an AOSP ROM. That's been my experience as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jo_blow421:
One thing I wish this Rom had is all the gestures that came on touchwiz and s-beam (my girlfriend and mom have s3's but they won't let me touch them). Other than that it's great. I didn't mess around with the stock touches for more than 5 minutes so I can't compare battery life.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] th3taman:
You can get gestures for some things via Nova Launcher Prime. Not sure if that's what you are looking for?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jo_blow421:
No I have that the only thing I use it for is to launch google now (I can't find a way to designate an action to it throughout the ROM such as double tap home). I was thinking more like the "gimmicky" stuff such as life the phone to your ear to call whoever's text convo or contact you're viewing or panning the phone to change screens when dragging icons. Just little things that were kind of cool.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pschatz12:
Media server draining battery very fast when listening to Pandora... Is this a known issue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] th3taman:
That's all based on Samsung TouchWhiz and is there way of trying to differentiate their design in the market. I wouldn't expect to see any of that stuff on AOSP based ROM anytime soon. If you really want it, best to use a TouchWhiz based ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] madyinanger37:
Same here. Downloaded Watchdog Lite a few days ago to start monitoring my CPU usage and this morning at work I started listening to Pandora and this mediaserver process is routinely getting as high as 61%. What gives?

I'll try one of those then. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] th3taman:
Synergy or Clean ROM would be my suggestions.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] GuitarrassDeAmor:
So...anyone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] th3taman:
Did you do a fresh install? I haven't used most of those browsers, but do use Chrome. Never have had a problem on any SG3 ROM. :confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] GuitarrassDeAmor:
It was on my install of Build-2 that was a clean install. I downloaded the latest build and did a backup then a non-fresh install of the latest one + gapps, and it works (without reinstalling Opera)...doesn't make sense to me. Oh well.

Do have another "issue" though. Randomly my brightness drops down to the lowest setting. I have it set usually at the middle without automatic brightness on. Sometimes it happens when the phone goes to sleep and I wake it up, right now it just happened as I brought the top menu down. I do not have a brightness toggle.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kevinb77:
With Jelly Bean installs it is really strongly suggested that you always do Clean installs on every build. It may be a PITA but if you have all the backups done with Titanium BU, AOKP settings, etc. it can be done in less than 10-15 min from start to finish.

You may want to consider flashing back to stock (hopefully you have a backup) and then start from scratch.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] GuitarrassDeAmor:
I don't see why as long as it works. If I was flashing a different build sure, but flashing an updated version of the same ROM shouldn't make a huge difference.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kevinb77:
After reading everything on JB for the S3. It seems that anyone who does not do a clean flash has some sort of problem, whether large or small. I've been flashing roms since the Moto Droid 1 and always use to do dirty flashes all the time. But I have learned over the years that a clean install is always best. Do what ya will though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] trafalger888:
Same for me and agree completely
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddurandSGS3:
no problems with stock or chrome browsers.

but it does, thats why so many people recommend clean installs. Im not as well versed as others here, but id think its especially important to do as of recently because the base changed from 4.1.1 to 4.1.2.

it takes minimal effort to restore teh phone the way youd like.
