Well, since last night, I have been experiencing some extreme screen problems with my laptop. I can barely see anything, which means I may not get to cook for a while. :( I know, breaks my heart. But before it took a dump I was able to get a build out. This one seems a lot more stable, so here I present the latest update. Again, I'm hard on trying to fix this problem but, its looking grim...

Anyway, check out the screens...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] GhostIsBaked:
Did the icons on settings change or do you have a custom theme?

Also nice weed farmer app lol ;)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] madrrio:
wonder if deadzone is fixed... for some reason any samsung, ics, or leaked rom gives me crackeling sounds for custom notification sounds and ringtones... this jelly bean and a few other builds have managed to fix it...

maybe ill get my zombie kill fix in and come back.. i miss tablet mode :D

Hey OG my version says 2.13?

Is this ok or did I flash 2.13 like a dumbass

Check if status bar settings have transparency. if it does, then you are on 2.13.2 latest
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] snysa:
Hello All,

I was trying to install this rom (my first rom on S3) through CWM recovery by selecting 'install zip from sdcard', but is was giving some error (status 7). I tried both 2.13 and 2.13.2, downloaded several times but same error. I also tried installing from internal storage but it is also giving me the same error. This is what i did:

Wipe factory/data

Wipe cache

Wipe dalvik cache

Formatted system

Now I am not able to enter CWM recovery and when i power on my phone it struck on "Samsung GALAXY S III".

I am also not able to use S3 toolkit. It is saying 'waiting for USB debugging to be enabled'.

I really worried.

PLEASE HELP

Thanks in advance.

- Samsung GALAXY S III when i turn on

I am very scared. Please help.

OK can you get into download mode?

If so you can Odin back to stock firmware
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] lennie:
Formatted system? You didn't need to do that? By the way what version of cwm are you using?

Can you still boot into android?

---------- Post added at 08:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:45 PM ----------

If u can't get into cwm then try to go into download mode home key + power button + volume down button.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] apascual89:
Since you formatted system and then couldn't flash anything, your phone doesn't have anything to boot into.

You need to try and get into download mode flash a recovery and download a ROM into tour SD card in the computer and flash that.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] OGWisdom:
Yes!! Have you guys done a full factory reset?? Wiping what is mentioned in the OP? I just built this this morning, flashed it and have no issues!! No gmail fc's, No incompatible app messages. I'm not saying things dont happen, but please wipe and reinstall. After reinstallation, before anything else, reboot recovery, wipe cache, dalvik cache, fix permissions.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] NeoAndroid:
Okay. Everything is golden now. There is a learning curve on per app settings. Google Play Store requires 300 size and 360 layout for it to work. Thank you OP for the heads up.

---------- Post added at 11:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:51 AM ----------

Same settings apply to Gmail, size 300 and layout 360. Works like a charm. Use those setting as a starting point with any apps that are FCing. Then go from there.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] soundslikemitch:
yes. It did nto work...

@soundslikemitch just a silly question and just trying to help, did you flash JellyBean GAPPS?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] OGWisdom:
Just curious about the people having issues, you do have a tmobile galaxy s3, t999 right?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] NeoAndroid:
Yes here. Thank you for your swift response. And no more issues after following your suggestions. About to try Faux's latest 16u kernel after I back up this awesome ROM.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] icrzymonkey:
Ok Im about to try it on T-999V, Just waiting on the nand back up to finish and see how things going
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] OGWisdom:
You are so very welcome. Thanks for letting me know that things are working for you. Let me know how the kernel runs. I am unfortunate to not be able to install his Ultimate line, as my cpu wont boot the device past 1729 Mhz, his mainline kernel is pretty nice though. Check out morfic's trinity kernel as well.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] soundslikemitch:
Of course. I will try everything from scratch when I get home. I used up a lot of power at work.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dynamisoz:
Thanks... I know the stock Touchwiz has this in their Settings menu.. where u can adjust the heptic intensity.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] scriller:
ok. when fresh installed the play store works fine, no incompatibility, however, as soon as I change the workspace problems, and it doesn't correct itself even after change back workspace to the default. I have to then go into recovery and factory reset in order to get back a proper working play store. it seems there's definitely something wrong the what paranoid settings for the store.

also: why does the play store default to 1000px and size 220? ......

EDIT: OP: 220dpi won't work for the marketplace. just letting you know. the lowest I think you can go is 240 anything lower than that will give compatibility problems

please change the tablet dpi from 220. 240 is the lowest you can go. thanks. here testing trying to see what I can do.

EDIT 2: yep. I found what the problem was. it's that paranoid settings set the system-ui / lcd density to 220dpi. this won't work for the play store. we have to use either 240 or 320 (nothing below or in between). thanks awaiting a fix. or you guys can just change go in and supposed to be able to change your build.prop lcd density to 240 or back to 320 (I'm not sure if the build.prop will take precedence over the paranoid settings. but yeah, this is most definitely the problem.

I'm still going to use this as my daily driver however I'll be here awaiting a sweet update. Thanks for the work you've done so far.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] laraiza:
Is it me or is PA 2.13.2 missing the option the turn the camera shutter off. I thought it had it before but I can't seem to locate it now? :confused:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] GhostIsBaked:
Same here actually lol

It also makes a noise when you autofocus.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] OGWisdom:
One of the teams probably removed this feature for stability purposes. Besides, i believe in this country it is illegal to remove the camera sound because of lawsuits and such.

Hey og I'm loving the new build btw... def works really well with apex launcher pro i don't buy allot of apps but this is a gem thanks for telling me about it
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] civicvx94:
It's definitely not illegal and even if it was, the user should still have the option.. If you could add this setting back it would be greatly appreciated!

I just wanted to say I've used just about every rom on here and this one definitely has the longest lasting battery I've seen. My battery last me all day now. And my cpu doesn't burn my hand anymore. Thanks for all your hard work.

The only thing I'm waiting on is hdmi support. I know that's not to far away though.

I really like all the options you have from this Rom and look forward to everything you do thanks....:)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mikeyinid:
I flashed this last night. Very impressed. I love being able to lower the DPI in certain apps and leaving the rest as is. Very cool. Phone sat in my car today for 8 hours while I did community service, long story, but the phone was still at 92% when I got done. I lost less than 1% an hour. I'm running lean kernel so I'd say its a good combo.

hey when theres an official jelly bean release for the tmobile S3 will there be a PA build based on it?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mikeyinid:
Huh?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sleevasteve:
I like it. I'd say pull some of the black out of the icons, and go with the more of the transparent blue style. The transparent status bar is awesome!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] zeusakatkm:
Apparently the latest apex launcher update breaks Apex.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] lennie:
huh with what mike? I wanted to know if OG will make a PA build based on a released tmobile JB ROM

I think instead of a "huh?" a better question would've been "why?". the reason I wanted that is because as far as I know the official ROMs are based of a different framework. specifically I wanted it because the phone app has call waiting

I think OG had said the officials are based on the TW framework while the aosp are based on the Holo framework.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] elterible:
I have confirmed this as well. WTF.

Switching to Nova launcher in the meantime. I must admit, I have been a strong advocate of Apex but i am loving Nova. Slightly less customization options but much smoother
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mikeyinid:
I'm pretty sure pa will never be based on non aosp ROMs.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] OGWisdom:
This is true! Sorry bro, i have been way ahead if ya on that one. I did have that in mind. But the way the stock builds are made, it just wouldnt be possible unless the pa team and rewrote the framework and all those smali edits within a stock build. Yes the stock builds are primarily based on the tw framework but the holo framework is also there. Hence stock builds being built from aosp source, just as cm is, but without all the garbage. It would be 2, 3 times more work for them to implement pa on stock builds then aosp builds. Maybe they have it in the works but i doubt it, we would have heard word of this. That would truly be the next big thing, but honestly, i dont like how the tw framework makes the environment look. If we had stock builds that were straight aosp, but with all proprietary drivers and such for all of the samsung apps, man, that would be something! But again, this would probably be the biggest project in the history of android besides cm.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mikeyinid:
I just don't think it's possible. Tw is closed source making things like this impossible. It would take a smali hacking god to do something even remotely close to this on a stock rom.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] lennie:
Damn. Guess I'm outa luck with that one. Guess I'm gonna have to come up with a work around like install a regular jb based on stock and keep a backup to install when I need it (which is going to be often....sigh)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] madrrio:
am i the only one that gets speaker problems with stock builds? aosp roms and cm are the only way i get rid of this
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mike216:
My guess is team PA will always be based on (AOSP CM10) however maybe someone will try and build a TW version? It would take some mad skillz

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ge3kswag:
I believe it's because all the stock build want to be cool and tweak the amp and volume defaults. they add too many things that mess with the audio and cause static and crackling. IMO anyways
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ad.hoc:
I've noticed a couple of oddities; whilst in tablet mode, I see a black shadow a little below the status bar & above the application try, also noticed, custom wallpapers are always blown too big, & if a forth button is added onto the navi bar, the button can only be pressed on the side, not in the middle, &, i'm probably the only person to notice these, alas, as always, great work on the rom.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] OGWisdom:
No, i notice these things 2 :) its just the only people that can fix it is the pa team. They are the ones rewriting code and hacking code. These mishaps would definately be from their camp. But it doesnt mean they dont know or wanna do anything about it. I guess they feel its stable enough for now to add new things then go back and iron out the wrinkles.

OK, let me first say that I have finally upgraded to the Samsung Vibrant 3 hours ago! Got a white 16GB S3 for $50 with new 2 year agreement :), if you live in the san gabriel valley area pm me and i'll send you to my friend. anyways, I have been flashing and modding the vibrant for as long as i've had it (4 years) going from eclair all the way up to ICS (with slim beans rom). Now, after reading a through the forums for a few hours I thought it was quite simple since I rooted/flashed on the vibrant, but I can't get this Rom to work.

I did what a previous poster on here did and got the same results

wipe everything and even did the format system like he did, luckily all of you responded to him so I am now back on the stock rom.

I then proceeded with following the instructions word for word, step by step, etc. however, everytime i open it up thru cwm i get "Error 7" so i end up factory resetting so that it doesn't hang in the "samsung galaxy s iii" boot.

any idea what i'm doing wrong?

1. I used odin to root and get CWM / SUPERSU on my phone. (the sprintgs3 method)

2. Downloaded these two files:

a. pa_d2tmo-2.13.2-19sep2012-221519

b. gapps-jb-20120726-signed

3. entered cwm, followed instructions from first post (wipe everything possible, DID NOT FORMAT SYSTEM)

4. Chose to install file from zip, upon opening I get "error 7"

any help will be appreciated, If this has been solved I apologize, I might have over looked the post, please guide me to the post and i'll take it from there. Thanks.

Use rom manager and update to the newest recovery! I'll bet a million dollars it flashes :thumbup:
