Currently running the latest version of AOKP. I'm getting a lot of distortion and terrible audio quality from recording videos (ie. at concerts). I remember on the previous 4.1 releases this issue was fixed but it seems to have reappeared for me on the 4.2.1. Any fix for this?

help...super noob

ok...um..where to start...

i downloaded this "beats audio installer" from the play store and i realized that its pretty useless:eek:... so i want to get rid of it, but it installed all these drivers into my gslaxy s3 I747M.. i got an email from the developer o how to get rid of them, it tells me to manually delete the drivers by root explorer. but i cant find certain system files and some im afriad to delete:crying:.. and yes, im so stupid i forgot to have a back up, so i cant restore back to my original settings....

so now im planning on just flasing another rom into my s3. BlackJelly, because it still got all those motion controls. but the link thrread says nothing about is it safe to flash for I747M ..only I747 for AT&T.:confused:

so cam anyone tell me is it safe for I747M ?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] smelenchuk:
The i747 and i747m are effectively the same device for ROM purposes (the only difference that I am 100% certain of is that they take different modem firmware), so you'll be safe flashing a ROM for the i747 to your device. Just don't try flashing something for another model of the S3...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cj95zz:
Helphelp

Yeah....I did that...found out that blackjelly is sucks...

S3 drivers install then search again

Hey everyone, I have looked high and low for answers, and I have tried just about everything. Here's my issue...

I have a i747

I just wanted to update via Kies from 4.0.4 to official JB then Root, but when I plug my phone into my computer it searches for the drivers then finds and installs them. For about 5-10 seconds it says it is ready to use, then it starts searching and installing again. I have uninstalled Kies, uninstalled the drivers, reinstalled the drivers, taken out my sd card, switched the mode from modem back to pda, tried other usb ports, tried other usb cables, switched from ptp back to mtp. turned usb debugging on, turned usb debugging off... Nothing has gotten my computer to keep the device as ready to use.

As a side note, when I look in my computer for the phone to pop up as removable storage it never does, but in device manager it shows up as a portable device even though it is continually installing the device drivers...

Please help.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] smelenchuk:
Unless you have a custom recovery installed (not extremely likely if you've just re-stocked your phone), you're going to need to reflash the rooted stock image to get your SuperSU back. If you do have a custom recovery, you could grab the recovery-flashable .zip from here and flash that to restore SuperSU.

Hello guys, I have been searching for a way to stop my GS3 from going to sleep when I use a specific app.

For example, my settings are to go to sleep after 1 minute but if I open Chrome I want the phone to stay awake for a longer period of time. Any help is welcome.

Thank you very much
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eduardo_b:
You mean beyond going to Display > Screen timeout? Typically, unless the developer of the app provides an override setting, the master timeout setting is the default.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] y0yerrj0sh:

Hello, is there a way to get bluetooth keyboards to work on aosp roms? I'm running 4.2 AOKP and the keyboard I'm trying to use is logitech k810. I've had trouble with other roms based on aosp and this keyboard as well. I have tried slim rom also with no luck.

It pairs but doesn't connect. Searched the forums for answers but found device specific and rom specific fixes..

This keyboard is made to work with Android as well apparently
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eduardo_b:
So you're scanning from phone, it finds keyboard and pairs but doesn't "connect?" Pairing actually is a connection...once paired the devices should be able to communicate. Does the keyboard show up as a keyboard device? Does it require a passkey (it shouldn't, unlike bluetooth in many cars)? It might require a few attempts before it makes a complete pairing.

Not sure any of this will help.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ryonyanko:
What happens is that when I put the device to be seen the phone picks up on it right away, it asks for a passcode to be typed on the keyboard itself to "pair" with the phone. It pairs successfully but when I try to use the keyboard it doesn't work. I notice that it its listed under paired devices but it never connects.

So it pairs up but can't be used. I've attempted for days...

and I've used this keyboard with touchwiz roms and I believe the M1 rom, not task's
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eduardo_b:
Okay, so it does require a passcode. And the passcode typed using the Logitech keyboard is actually received by the phone? Hmm. It may be the ROM because there are more than 20 device categories for bluetooth, which is how the master (phone) knows what type of device (slave) is trying to connect. That the keyboard works with other ROMs would indicate an implementation issue with this particular ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ryonyanko:
THANK YOU SO MUCH. So now... the question is that can that be implemented in some way by the rom dev? Is there a way I can pull that information from one ROM and somehow implement it to another?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eduardo_b:
I'm guessing what you would need is a bluetooth driver(s) that could be installed and would sit on top of OS and hook into appropriate Android OS services. That's what bluetooth code in ROM does to access bluetooth radio. Sorry I can't be of more help. You might ask ROM dev about this.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] calebsb:
Try going to "manage apps" in settings. Then clear data in youtube.then open YouTube again and see if it works. Can you download any other apps? If not clear data in play store too. And lastly you may just have to install a whole new ROM. Remember to back it up right away so you can just restore it if you mess it up next time. Good luck :D

AOSP - Download?

Good afternoon,

I'm seeing a lot of different options for ROMs, and all of them with extra mods with them.

My question is this: Where can I get a base ROM? Something with only the Google Jellybean code (4.2.1 preferred) with the i747 drivers, but with no extra mods, nonGoogle things, or required for hardware to work things? This there such a thing?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Bruce Lee:
If we are talking about the same thing then no.

For the s3, we don't have just 4.2.1 pure Google ROMS. We have others that are but have bugs and or are themed. I can recommend some if you like.

Unlocking with custom ROMs

Just discovered that if I want to unlock phone, at least with ROM I'm currently using, I have to flash back to stock because it doesn't have SIM access in settings. Is this common to non-stock ROMs. I can wait for quite a while to unlock, but having finally set up phone, I wasn't planning on flashing back to stock. <sigh>
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] XaveT:
Oh great Kung Fu Master,

Any recommendations are appreciated!

Also, is there much of a way to remove parts of the custom roms so that I could have a more "Google" experience? A friend of mine got a Nexus 4 and it has nothing extra on it, just pure Google. I was hoping for that plus the bits 'n pieces to make Samsung's hardware work. Is there anything you can think of or link me to to start looking in that direction? Or am I missing the big picture and it simply doesn't exist at all?

Here is my favorite Touchwiz ROM which is far from a pure Google experience, but keeps the functionality of the phone.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] busarov:
Not with a Stock ROM unless there's an app in the play store I don't know about. AOKP ROMs seem to have that ability. Task650's 4.2.1 ROM does for sure. I use that feature often :cool:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ikjadoon:
Download Llama (like Tasker, but easier to use). Then, you can make it change the screen timeout automatically every time you open Chrome and then reset it back to your normal when you're away from the app.

I use it to turn data on when I open my SMS/MMS app to download MMS messages.

Some how what ever i do this it didn't work for me.. but Hand Motion works fine.

Home + Power Key is used in iPhone, why do samsung wanted to use same keys..

Edit: It works. Need to hold it for a 2 sec to get screenshot.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] skrambled:
I loved the hand swipe screen shot option before I got a case. I hate using a case, never needed one on my Captivate or my S2, but after I broke the screen on my S3 and had to replace it I got a case that makes it hard to swipe edge to edge (the case sticks up too much).

It's a cool feature though, wish I could use it with the case. The home + power combo seems faster though, at any rate.

I prefer Mobile Odin Pro. It's a paid app but the dev (Chainfire) is someone I'm happy to support at any time.

Doesn't trip the flash counter, and if you enable Everroot and select Inject SuperSU you don't lose root (just make sure you know how to use it before proceeding). :good:

If I root my phone, will not longer able to get offical updates? If a new version of Android comes, I will have to wait until someone get it in the forum, is this right?

Not a stupid question at all. OTA updates will likely fail on rooted S3. You can try Voodoo OTA app to hold root and see if it works with OTA, but otherwise you need to flash back to unrooted stock, run OTA and then root again.

Keyboard Layout

Recently, I upgraded my S3 to 4.1. One main reason to do this was enable keyboard layouts, so I could finally type in my native layout, Dvorak.

Everywhere online that I was able to find, (Mainly websites just parroting the release notes, unfortunately) Dvorak is included as a layout in Jellybean.

Places offering solutions to add Dvorak mainly relied on an Application, or rooting the phone and playing around with the keyboard files directly. While I am not above such drastic measures (I use Arch, so I know how to edit config files), I am keen on utilizing the features included in jellybean, if I can.

In the settings, I can't find the option to select Dvorak or even change my keyboard layout at all. I can change the phone language, but not the layout.

Can someone point me in the right direction? Surely, there must be something I'm missing.

Thanks in advance.

Ok I upgraded from a gs2 to a gs3. After having my gs2 for almost a year I broke down and rooted and flashed because I wanted the latest software, JB. Well now that i have the gs3 running JB is it worth rooting and flashing to just get rid of bloatware? Im loving it and could use some guidance, like pros vs cons? Thanks in advance.

Stock Camera will not install

I have looked all over and can not seem to find an answer for my question. I upgraded my rooted Galaxy S3 i747 to the Paranoid Android 2.55d2att custom rom. I also installed the gapps. The camera that came loaded is different and doesn't have a lot of the stock features like best shot/smile detection. I tried to load the backup of the camera 1.5 that I made with Titanium Backup but that doesn't seem to load. I was getting errors when I tried to load apps with system data and I would have to wipe to factory because of the error "android.process.acore", so I just installed the apps with data only.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] skrambled:
I prefer the stock camera as well, it works really well. However you can't just restore it on an aosp ROM. You need the TouchWizz framework.

Your best bet might be to find a cm themed stock-based ROM, or use a stock-based ROM and install a launcher that makes it look like cm (I prefer Nova Prime, but there are others like Trebuchet and Apex).

I'm working on 4.2, so this might not correspond 100% to how it works on 4.1, but I did figure out how to enable a Dvorak layout for the AOSP keyboard. It's rather counterintuitive. What you want to do is:

System

-> Language & Input

-> hit the Settings icon next to "Android keyboard (AOSP)"

-> Advanced settings (at the bottom)

-> Custom input styles

-> Add style...

-> set "English" and "Dvorak", tap "Add"

-> follow the prompt to enable the style.

My questions

Okay ever since the 4.1.1 update over ATT the phone has been draining battery like crazy.

Also, anytime I do a reset it reverts back to the original settings on some things such as keyboard. I use swiftkey and it reverts back to samsungs keyboard for some reason.

Is there any way to fix this?

Another question, is there any way to move and organize photos and videos on the phone itself, or does this have to be done by computer?

When I mean draining battery like crazy...I take it off my charger when 100% full, go take a shower, get ready, then when on my way to work I pull my phone out of my pocket and it's down to 92% already and I haven't even looked at the screen.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] smelenchuk:
This could be caused by a few things, but let me check the most likely: do you have a lot of media files stored on an external SD card? There's a known bug in Jelly Bean that causes drain under those circumstances.

This is a known issue with Jelly Bean's interaction with SwiftKey; see here.

Organise how? There are plenty of applications that do what I think you mean; something as simple as a file manager could do it...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bdr1010:
I don't even have an SD card installed yet. I did find that weatherbug is using about 20% battery every time I check my battery usage. however it wasn't like this before the update.

I just wish there was a way to move or organize photos and videos from within the gallery app itself, instead of having to go into the file manager and finding the file by name to move it around.

Aha! thank you very much for that quick and informative howto. There are little differences between 4.1 and 4.2, but overall it's pretty similar.

Turns out the problem is I don't have the android keyboard. All I have is "samsung keyboard" which has no dvorak option, and Swype.

I will probably have to root my device to get the default keyboard back, because it can't be installed from the play store (as far as I can tell).
