Im having a problem w/ the emojis. i checked the box in the sms settings but the first 3 rows are all android smileys not the iphone ones( with the exception of 2)... anyone else seeing this or having this problem. Thanks for any help... LOVE THIS ROM
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] spacepirates:
I was having issues as well, until I did a few extra steps in my flash procedure. I mounted/formatted system separately and flashed the kernel patch. after that, the phone/rom has been working very well.

As for the DPI, that kind of thing is personal preference. After experiencing the smaller DPI on SlimROM, it is a must-have feature for me and a complete dealbreaker when I can't have it. I think it makes reading text much easier. Every so often I'll flash another ROM that can change DPI but doesn't set it to 241 default and I am shocked/appalled by how massive and crowded everything seems.

When listening to pandora i have no bass at all how do i fix that if at all?

I tried the suggestions about using the other dsp app for the bluetooth bass issue and it doesnt work anyone know of a fix? I really like this rom and music sucks with no bass. :rolleyes:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fz798:
Did you even read those posts?

There's a well-documented work-around. It ain't elegant, but it works, and it's in probably a dozen of the links I posted to you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dawiseguy77:
Maybe i missed something cause all i saw was using noozxiode. Ill look again
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fz798:
I'm not trying to be snarky, but it's really plainly stated over and again (and in posts by ME about this very issue) that to resolve the no-bass issue, you simply initiate a telephone call, hang up, and voila... bass.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dawiseguy77:

Love the Rom, but major issue with Bluetooth. Lost BT to my car stereo after receiving a call and now it simply refuses to reconnect. Tried every trick in the book.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] brando7010:
Thanks... I'm about to try that extra wipe and see how things go.

I've been so disappointed since Slim is the only thing I have run on my phone since 2.7 came out. I too have become addicted to the "stock slim dpi".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fz798:
I've had that happen too. Is your car key by chance a smart key? If so, here's what worked for me:

1. Leave the vicinity of the car entirely.

2. While away from the car, delete the pairing from your phone

3. Return to the car and delete the pairing for the phone,

4. Initiate the pairing again, and pay attention to any numeric code (PIN) input prompts, either on the car stereo interface or the phone. Sometimes I have to use what's presented on the dashboard, other times I have had to use the car's default PIN.

Hope that helps
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jaguarpaw:
anyone else not getting all the emojis?

Only about half are the actual smileys the others are the green android guys.. is that the way its supposed to be?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AdmiralSurf:
I took the nuclear approach and super wiped/reinstalled. Worked :).

I'll try your approach if it happens again. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] foreverinpanama:
Man both of you took a Rambo approach lol. I've had a weird issue that it won't connect but it's been more if I kill the car while the connection is on. When I turn the car back on it won't connect.

All I've really had to do is turn off blue tooth and back on, or sometimes ill just reboot the whole phone since it's fast enough that by the time I am done putting in gas its waiting on me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rampantandroid:
Why on earth can no ROM get the Bluetooth right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] foreverinpanama:
I don't fret too much over it. The way I see it, for my long commute it stays on the whole time. And even stock Os's are never without fault. If anything I switched to slim to have less issues.

What I'm trying to say is that it might be more hardware than anything. Just how back in the day of the old Motorola alias with an old school blue tooth I could voice dial contacts easier than now.

Either way this rom is polished to a factory quality in my opinion.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FastEddie422:
I'm not sure if it was an issue with the app or the rom but I just recently had a bug (and resolved it) with Play Music. I figured I would throw it out here for posterity.

I was streaming music yesterday from my Google account when Play Music stopped after one of the songs halfway through an album. I tried to manually play the next song but it kept giving me an error (something like, "sorry but this song cannot be played at this time"). It gave me the error for any other song I tried, too. I deleted the data for the app and tried to go back in to set up my account again but it gave me no screen to and the option was missing from the Settings menu.

I resolved the issue by uninstalling the app and reinstalling it, after which it prompted me to set up my account. No idea what happened but I thought I would put it here in case someone else runs into the same problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cordell12:
source files are needed from qualcom to get it 100% all the AOSP ROMs are more-less using CMs Bluetooth, thats why we all "got it wrong"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mickskillz:
How are you guys making out with slim 4.2? I heard that liquid has a build coming in the next few days. I just don't want to leave the slim line. Love this Rom!

Slim SGS3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rampantandroid:
I get this much, I remember plenty of woes with drivers and such years ago with Linux. I guess what I meant to say is "why has there not been more of a concerted effort to get this working?" As it stands CM seems to have just now done some fixes, while in turn breaking things like not getting low frequencies over BT.

Example being: Codename Android - worked great with bluetooth, just had other issues. CM10 works well with BT, but you have to call yourself to fix the low freq issue. This rom somehow has more issues than CM nightlies (at least, that I saw) - how far do roms deviate from CM in their system level code? Is there a reason this rom is currently not integrating with CM (or, are you? I really have no idea here.)

I honestly mean no offense, and appreciate the work everyone does. The answer might just be that there are different priorities, and those don't align with mine.

It's exceptionally hard for me, when I dumped my iPhone...and I'm MOSTLY glad I did. Except for bluetooth. It worked GREAT with my car, and on the S3 I'm lucky if it connects within a few minutes on it's own, doesn't drop phone calls and doesn't go snap crackle pop.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jaguarpaw:
dude.. no one cares about your post.. enough already. : /
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FastEddie422:
Did you just reply to yourself? Either way, I think no one is responding because they either don't use emoji or don't know how to change it. I remember there being an option on CleanROM to use default smilies or android smilies but I believe it was baked into the TouchWiz SMS since I can't find a similar option in AOSP. If you're worried about what other people are seeing when you send them, they should still see the default smilies if they're on iphone...not the android ones. If you just don't like looking at the android ones yourself then you're probably out of luck.

Best IO Scheduler for Ondemand governor

First time user of SlimBean for the S3, was just wondering which scheduler makes for the best combination of battery/performance. This rom is very smooth and allows a great deal of customization, thanks SlimTeam!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] daihl92:
So I made a backup and flashed the inverted AIO to give it a try and decided I didnt really like it so I went to restore my backup but it was corrupted, so then I flashed the normal AIO zip again and figured everything would go back to normal and every app went back to normal except messaging, it is still inverted. Any help or tips? Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fz798:
Try wiping cache and Dalvik then flashing the standard AIO?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pimpmaneaton:
Did you reflash ROM as well? The inverted AIO included the inverted MMS but the regular AIO does not have the MMS app due to it is included in ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] foreverinpanama:
I like to use interactive and I turned down the overclock back to 1512 (fast enough I can't tell the difference). Just anything to avoid it sticking to the highest frequency.

I do use SetCPU though because for some reason the max would keep jumping back up to 1800 at random it seemed. No such issues with setCPU.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] born1690:
Some games give me a black screen like Beach Buggy and Paper Monsters and some others that i had to delete that's the only problem that I'm having some games don't work right
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] daihl92:
I did not reflash ROM, should I just wipe cache before I do so? thanks man
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
that happened to me once or twice before.

check ur flash settings. make sure you have all the adobe's installed. air & flashplayer

that would be considered a dirty flash..and i dont like those cause way too many issues.

honestly...if you dont have anything pertinent on your device..start from scratch.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
just checking in and making sure everyone is still alive...its been awfully quiet around here.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] spacepirates:
I'll ring in:

I still have the issue on 3.1 where about 10% of the time the screen doesn't turn on (though the soft keys light up). This happens using volume rocker wake, power button, home button, and I've had it happen on the end of a phone call (moving the phone away from my ear).

I know this was brought up/mentioned earlier, but I was too lazy to find the post and there aren't any fixes linked in the fix section, nor on the slimroms site that I know of.

I've also had vibrate not work a few times for SMS, though that might be me losing my mind. which happens.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
flash an alt kernel.

i recommend KT's latest.

i had the deep sleep issue with the screen not wanting to turn on .. its a huge P.I.T.A, but it was fixed once i flashed the new kernel.

the vibrate issue is prolly just you losing it. i havent seen that one yet. lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] oryanh:
Quiet forum = Stable ROM
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] spacepirates:
I was on KT's 11-13 kernel, just updated to 12-11, hopefully that'll fix it.

Other than that I suppose we're all just enjoying the ROM and its stability.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prototype7:
12-11 build doesn't fix it completely, but it does make it a lot less frequent. Stock kernel doesn't have the issue at all anymore.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] foreverinpanama:
Yeah it's been quiet but it's been stable so I'm good. BT gotta do the work around but otherwise everything works.

Otherwise I can put up a question. Is this about what you guys get in terms of battery life? Screen was on for about 2 hours (forgot to take screen shot but I did look).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prototype7:
Not terrible, highest I got was a little over 5 hours screen time, I believe that was with pegasusq governor and sio for the i/o scheduler, either that or ktoonservative with cfq, OCed to 1.7 ghz and UVed as much as I can.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FastEddie422:
Has anyone tried the new radio and rpm with this? I saw there was another leak to VRBLK3. My reception has been awful with this phone and I'm still holding onto the crazy hope that it'll magically get fixed with a new radio.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
thats what radios do..but flash at ur own discretion.

ON ANOTHER NOTE

glad to see everyone else is doing good with the rom (except for minor issues). if anything else is needed post here...ill follow up.

and stay tuned..im pretty sure something awesome is on its way

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FastEddie422:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wizzardeel:
Problems with ROM...

Installed this today, and I am running into some trouble. First off, I cannot restore my data from my previous stock ICS Verizon ROM. I backed it up with Kies, and I cannot get my phone to sync with Kies with Slim Bean. I even tried to restore data from CWM 6.0 and Slim Bean does not boot afterwards; gets stuck on the animation. Second, I tried to update the Gmail app and it does not let me install it, gives me an error. Haven't tried installing any other apps. If someone can let me know how I can restore my data back on this ROM it would be greatly appreciated (mainly my pictures I am concerned about.) Some apps also show incompatible with my phone in the Play Store. I installed Slim Bean 3.1.0 and AIO_Addons.zip. I will try to copy and paste my pictures to my computer using the regular USB Sync, and if it does work, I'll go back to Slim Bean because it is a work of art. Simply gorgeous. I did try to remove Gmail.apk from system/app and then I successfully installed Gmail latest version from Play Store but I get force close everytime I try to open it. Help would be greatly appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] snael:
Go into interface settings-->general UI--> then LCD density and run through all the steps. Should fix market incompatibility. I did the same thing for Gmail but I don't get force close so I assume it is probably the lcd density as well? As for pics, I think moving to computer then to sd card is your best bet.

Sent from my SCH-I535
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wizzardeel:
The deal with the LCD Density did not fix anything for me unfortunately, the market does not find all the apps and I get incompatibility issues.

Location set by GPS is stuck in my status bar and it wont go away.

EDIT: Gmail is fully updated now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FastEddie422:
Is there any way to have the phone in tablet mode but not have the navigation bar icons? I like having the status bar on the bottom with the smaller notification pop-up but I don't need the navigation icons taking up that space when I have hardware buttons.

I played around with the settings for a bit but I couldn't get them to go away. Sorry if this has been asked and answered; I did a search to no avail.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wizzardeel:
WhatsApp

Has anybody gotten WhatsApp to work with SlimBean?

EDIT: It finally synced and it now works.

On another note, what is the stock rom cpu settings? RIght now I am on max 1512Mhz and Interactive governor. I am trying to make my phone run smooth but still keep a decent battery life of 12 hours.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] indyssee:
Stock is 384 min and 1512 max. I think default gov is ondemand but I always use interactive with deadline. You shouldnt have any problems getting 12 hours. I avg around 16 with 2.5 hrs screen on and poor 3g signal
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wizzardeel:
This ROM is purely amazing. I am so happy I switched from stock ICS, that Touchwiz bs was driving me crazy. My Phone and Messaging app were laggy as hell. The reason why I postponed it for so long is because I used to have an HD2 and because I flashed so many times, I ended up with bad blocks.

Another question: Is there any way to change the lockscreen animation? That old-school tv like animation is driving me crazy
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ben7337:
I know this is a developer forum, so sorry to intrude, just wasn't sure where to make feature requests for this rom.

I used to use Codename android, but it appears to have lost any signs of update or development for the past month at least. Not even a word saying the developer(s) have no time and will be back at a later date, plus their website has been overrun with malware it seems.

I found this rom though, and it works great, it seems to have at least all of the same features, if not more. However there is one feature I am missing, it's a simple one, the ability to control the battery text color the same way one could control the battery bar colors. I know codename android 3.8 has that feature, though it isn't available for the Galaxy s3 at the moment, possibly not ever.

Aside from that, would it be possible to have the option to change the lockscreen from having the slim bean icon to a more stock style icon?

Anyway sorry to bother everyone, just wanted to as least as or put the ideas out there. There was nothing on them in the faqs or features listed on the website.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
Does this ROM have the low mic volume recording bug that CM10 has? It's the one thing that drives me nuts about CM10, and I like the options in this ROM from what I can see, so if mic works normally I would instantly switch lol.

That's android kitchen. I've used it before but not on this phone and don't know if it works on AOSP. You can make a backup and try at your own risk but, other than that, not sure what you could do to get what you want.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wizzardeel:
One small issue I've noticed...

Whenever I reboot, it used to go straight into rom after slim bean animation, now it goes to the animation, stays for 5 seconds, and it reboots, then goes into rom. not a biggie since I will probably never again have to reboot, or maybe once a week if... just curious if anybody else's does that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ben7337:
I used to use uot kitchen, I'm sure it would work, but the icon choices are limited. Compared to other phones, thes 4.6-5" phones with 720p resolutions have tiny status bars, I love the super circle battery mod, but the numbers were too small to read comfortably without actually looking. I like how the battery percent built into the rom is bigger than that and can be seen at a quick glance. The closest uot comes to that is some old fashioned digital led style thing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FrostyOrDie:
Can anybody help or direct me on how to enable call recording please?

I do have a 4.2 build for d2vzw and d2spr, its up to date with the rest of the Slim devices. I will go a head and upload it to be released with the rest of Slimbean 4.2 betas. I cant promise anything on where it goes from there, I will try to keep this fit into my daily schedule. Yesterday I spent nearly 18 hours working on the two devices, that is what made me step back and think about this whole android thing. Between work, family, and "real world life" android takes a big chunk out of the day/night. Either way this thread will remain open, look for a new thread that will have the 4.2 beta, this afternoon (?)

Yeah as others have already stated Cordell, home life is first and family sure does. It is hard to keep up with projects on here. I have dropped some projects that I know many would have like to see keep going, but I just don't have the time to do them all and there are certain ones I would rather per sue. I decided that my wife and little daughter are more important than some android projects. Thanks for the hard work and sweet ROM.
