I'm on serenity 1.1 and not a fan of the grey toggles and tried flashing a theme from update me and it did nothing, anyone else using twrp have success flashing those themes, I thought a read somewhere earlier in the thread people using twrp having problems with themes
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drewgaren:

How so? Their more responsive?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] smeatr0n:
They are ugly, lack any sort of customizing, have half a dozen toggles most people will never use and are missing important toggles ie. Flashlight and hotspot. If they were any good then it wouldn't be the first thing changed in almost any custom ROM. Sorry again if this is offensive, its just my opinion here folks. I really hate those stock toggles.

Hey Drew. (or anyone else because I'd rather not bother him on vacation)

On serenity 1.1 I have no lockscreen options for weather or news. Is that a note 2 thing? Is there anything I can do about it? I'm staying on this rom until 1.2 drops regardless. Just curious.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xEVILFREDx:
Thanks Drew on the update! Quick question. Will this update fix the bad audio when connecting a headphones / aux cable to the phone. It sounds terrible like its mono. Thanks again.

Bluetooth Audio in GPM

I am using JellyBean 747 Milestone 5 Firefly Edition on my AT&T GS3 and when I use Bluetooth audio out to my car stereo it works fine in the stock music player however in the Google Play Music app it is silent. There is a toggle in the top right to select the phone speaker or the Bluetooth audio and works fine out of the phone and all sounds from the phone come out of my car stereo except from Google Play Music... any ideas on what I can do to fix this?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Irfdiddy:
Does anyone else notice some lag on the serenity 1.1 vs the stock TW ICS GS3 rom? Also on the keyboard? Like the transitions arent as fast. Any suggestions? And my quadrant score is like 1300 more then when i was running stock GS3 TW
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Futant55:
I just got an sgs3. From the skyrocket 2 days ago amd really liked all the built in features. I ran almost every rom possible on my skyyocket. I was going to stay on stock until I found your roms. I have to say serinity is a wonderful rom. Best of both worlds. Thank you so much. Looking forward to 1.2
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Ghstudent:
Since drew said that he was including multi screen in revision 7, the only thing really keeping me stuck to serenity is the fact that it is AT&T based. Silly i know, but I swear i can see a difference in performance in the t mobile leaks. I can't wait until drew gets his hands on an s3 att leak.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tacotino:
Can't wait for 1.2:eek:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drewgaren:
Serenity 1.2 and Jellybean747 are different roms. Serenity is a Gnote 2 port and I have enabled Multiview in it for the upcoming 1.2 release coming later this week. Jellybean747 are S III JB TW leaks, They are only at Milestone stages and I have not made a version 1 yet. Jellybean747 Milestone's are basically the roms that are coming before the first rom version as I am waiting for the official release to release my version 1. Hence Milestone 7 will becoming out. Berry Blue, Plum, Firefly, etc... are codenames for each build. Jellybean747 Milestone 7 will have a new code name and will also include multiview for the S III TW Leaks enabled as it is a feature that our phones include.

NOW GOOD NEWS EVERYBODY:

SERENITY 1.2 IS IN TESTING PHASES AND IS ALL GOES WELL IT WILL BE UP SOON (IF I CAN GET A GOOD INTERNET CONNECTION AND FEEL THE ROM IS STABLE)

Is anyone using ktoonez latest jellybean kernel? If so, how is it working?I am currently using the milestone firefly rom.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mocsab:
Unfortunately the only Jellybean TW ROM that Koontzes Kernel works with is FROSTY JB - I have tried to flash in on virtually every JB Leak and even the Serenity ROM and all you get is a black screeen when you try to boot. It sure would be nice if it did work - but honestly it is way over my head as to why it will work well on one JB Leak and not another.

Onavo Extend

Hey guys, so I flashed the M6 firefly to try it out in comparison to serenity to see if there was a difference, don't see too much but I thought I'd give it a shot, one thing I did notice is that Onavo Extend won't work anymore. When I try to activate it it says "VPN Unavailable Sorry it seems that VPN support for applications isn't available in your version of Android. Onavo Extend can't compress your data without this." Any ideas of what happened or what I'm doing wrong? Thank you in advance.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Ghstudent:
Lol trust me drew, i have been following this thread so long i know all the differences! I do like the gnote 2 leak a lot but i just want to see how the milestones compare in terms of battery. Testing the milestone 6 today and will let you know my impressions. So far it seems a lot faster than milestone 5!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ARchamps:

Did you change your transitions yet to .5? Also don't rely on quadrant scores :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ewingr:
JFYI...(came from Ariel...which is nice ICS ROM)...I'm on second full day. While I had a couple spontaneous reboots soon after install, all has been good since.

Just to reference some things in my experience rleated to other folk's problems reported earlier in the thread:

WidgetLocker is working well (had posted possible issues earlier), In fact I have Tasker running a task that disables the lock screen while home (and on wifi), and it is working much better on this ROM than Ariel.

Only thing that I find problematic is Quick Glance in motions.

GPS works great. WiFi working great. Battery life seems good. Blue tooth seems fine, although I have not yet tested volume from BT.

Overall volume is lower that I would like.

Great ROM.

Nice write up of the differences. To prevent the continuous requests regarding difference, you may consider putting above text in the OP. Then when referring noobs to OP, it will maybe make a bit more sense than reading changelogs. They probably do overwhelm noobs.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] smeatr0n:
Which rom are you using? Widgetlocker closes for me when pressing home or back buttons. I'd love to be able to use it!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Irfdiddy:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jon3sh:
Are you talking about when you just open text box and you start typing right away and there s a delay? I noticed that in all jb leaks not just serenity 1.1. I think it has something to do with Samsung keyboards cuz when I am using Android keyboard on Liberate didnt get that problem.

Tethering works!!!

God bless you...finally!!! The wifi hotspot works on Serenity build without having to activate a tethering plan with AT&T. I spend hours figuring it out, but I finally got it. DO NOT GO to settings/more settings/ and then click on the Tethering and portable hotspot; it wont work from there! To activate the hotspot, go to the pull down bar and click on the Hotspot icon...and Vuala!

BTW ... Benchmarking 6111 on quadrant standard; couldn't get pass 3500 on ICS stock!

Not justnky. Doing a bloatware removal with tibu and analyzing with "auto killer" what programs are sucking everything up. So far have I have persistence on programs that no matter how many times I "Chuck Norris" them, they keep comming back.

I'm putting up a Droid Wall, that should at least control what goes out and what comes in, added Busy Box 1.20.2 and installed Lookout Security. You never know if something stuck in even after moving over to this ROM.

That's what I got so far.

PD. There is no such thing as a free lunch. Beware of what you flash.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ewingr:
I'm using Serenity 1.1.

Sorry...I too have Widgetlocker close when pressing home, but NOT when I press back. I think I have always had WL open when press home. I was thinking I had done a setting that does that, but I can't find one now, so not sure about that.

You need to the following:

Go into sVoice settings, and turn off 'Open with Home Key'

Then go into Home2 Shortcut and set item 1 to point to Voice; and item 3 to point to your launcher

You then need to set the Home2Shortcut program to be your 'Defrault Launcher'. You may have to go into Application Manager, and to your launcher, and then clear defaults; then press home for the selections to come up.

That should get it going for you.

Slightly off topic...I guess you could say.......but I'm having the same problem on STOCK LI8 JB leak (T-Mobile).

Haven't tried any other programs (Google Play/stock/etc) yet.

I have been using the Serenity ROM for about a week. Everything was fine until I started downloading other apps. SwiftKey 3, Lite Flow both force close and then reboot the phone continuously until you uninstall them. Battery life sucks. I was getting a good day and a half before and now barely a day, with moderate use. I really did LOVE this ROM. Will be back when issues are fixed.

Not that I know of. I just full wipe and boot from backups. I'm using cmw for that.

I think you are correct - to switch back and forth between ROMS you have is to make nandroid backups and then simply restore the back up you want when you want a change - that is what I have done in the past -and usually without any issues. I have been having a problem doing it recently with the MIUI ROM - for whtever reason the backups don't want to play nice and I end up having to re-flash it - but I have consistently done this with Serenity - M6 and Frosty JB without any issues.

Good luck.
