Flashlight

I just flashed v10 of xD last night (9/10/12) and the only issue I've found so far is that when I try to open either one of my flashlight apps, the phone reboots itself. Any clues? It's not critical, but it's a nice feature and I wanted to mention it.

thanks

Anyone have an issue when you set a wallpaper it wont set but on the lock screen it does or when you do set it is gone after you lock the phone.... sorry if this has been mention i am on the road n didnt have time to look thanks

I was screwing around after work and got my music to play in car via BT. I had started my player and at one point toggled BT off and then back on. When I got the BT connect tone, my music came through the car speakers.

Closing the app and trying other music apps worked flawlessly. Rebooted phone and no BT music. Toggled off and back on and it worked again.

I'm on V6. Hopefully this works again today, the drive in to work listening to the radio sucked. :(

So you're saying that being on the road, this is important enough to ask someone else to find your answer for you because you're too busy yourself and you need a different wallpaper to impress the other board members, right?

Set via the gallery or use quickpic.

This comes up about every 5 pages or so along with call echo, blue tooth music, turning off wifi calling for SMS/MMS to work over wifi, why you need to patch l3, how to patch l3, no there are no custom kernels yet and a handful of others. There, now you can get back to peace talks or whatever else is keeping you from reading the forum. :D
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jbm0329:
I am not a fan of the stock wallpaper setter as I've noticed that depending on which editor you use, it won't actually apply it, plus it seems like the lock screen options are limited vs the home screen. I use the Sony album APK to set my wallpaper and lock screen. See if you like it better (attached).
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kenv202:
you tried the built in "Assistive Light"? works fine for me on v10
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] skyyrocket:
First off i dont need to impress no one nor do i care to impress anyone 2 whatever i do on the road is my problem not yours so dont worry about me 3 i just dont want a dam dandelion and my last point i already used quick pic and it didnt work my fault for not mentioning it in my post
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jbm0329:
I didn't notice that there was one included in the widgets. Is there a way to change the look? I'm using Go Launcher and for some reason, it doesn't really look like the other icons and when I try to resize it, it doesn't allow me to show JUST the word 'assistive' or 'light.'

Thanks for the help.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sluggersix:
To change lock screen wallpaper just go into sys settings display... Pick lock screen wallpaper... When option comes up use any other program like quick pic etc to select wallpaper.... Once it asks you to crop use the regular gallery and it will set your wallpaper...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] L1Wulf:
Update: toggling BT off and on didn't work this morning. I retraced some experiments from yesterday and toggling "call audio" in the blue tooth settings for the paired device did it.

I thought I had it nailed down yesterday, but for some reason the simple BT toggling worked even after a reboot. Maybe the BT receiver in car held something between reboots. I dunno. This morning, nothing worked until I did the call audio trick above.

Anyone else able to test this?

There now! See, you had more time than you thought.

It's frustrating to see people who think the rest of us have more time available than you do. The answers to your problem have been listed many times over. It's hard to help someone who obviously can't bother to help themselves. More so if you can't even give us a complete description of what you've tried. You can't be mad if you look at your original post and realize what you left out.

If you don't care to impress anyone then don't bother mentioning your circumstances. Nobody cares why you can't be bothered to read back a few posts, the fact is the information is there.

Incidentally, quickpic works. Long press at home screen, use quickpic for home screen wallpaper, use gallery to crop image. This too has been posted. Alternatively, use the apps on the previous page.

Don't get all butt hurt because you're asking a question that is repeated over and over again. You got your answers, deal with the chastising and move on.

Anyone else having issues with Google voice not working?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] vnguyen972:
I don't use Google Voice to make call directly but I use SipDroid with GoogleVoice and it works fine for me.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Sometimes its the best thing. Stubbornness will often only get you so far! :D

Just thought I'd throw out a couple of recommendations for ya. I dont know how all the others have been for stability and battery, its too much to keep up with! But I do know that on FreeGS3 and on Xquizit (wilds other rom) I myself and quite a few others were getting phenomenal battery life. Almost 2 days worth in some cases! (Usually closer to the 26-32 hour range but still!) Anyway you gotta do what you gotta do. Have fun on your new flashing adventure!

See you around man! :thumbup::D
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] afbengochea:
I normally use it for making calls as well. It seems with the leak there is something not connecting though. I found a workaround though, in Google voice options have it ask you if to make the calls with or without Google voice. When done that way and choosing Google voice it'll connect. A little bit of a pain but hey we're working with a leak
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] vnguyen972:
Yeah.. I did a similar way... in GoogleVoice I set "don't make any call with googlevoice" but in SipDroid I set an option where ask me everytime... So whenever I dial a number, a pop up pops up and ask me if I want to make a call via SipDroid or Phone... That'll allow me to decide where and when I should use my phone # or my Google Voice # to call... complete freedom! :)

twrp not flashing via odin

im trying to flash this rom per the instructions in the beginning of op. however when i get to the part where i am flashing twrp via odin, it doesnt flash it. it gets stuck and invariably fails everytime. ive been trying to do it since last night, and have tried every different thing i could think of, i dont see anyone else reporting on this, so i figure i must be making a mistake somewhere... im using xp, odin version 3.07, i downloaded twrp from the link in the op, and followed the instrusctions to the letter. somebody save me from myself.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Two other options.

Make sure to delete or rename these:

/system/etc/install-recovery.sh

/system/recovery-from-boot.p

If they're not there, good!

Option 1

Install Goo Manager from the store and open. Press menu and select Install OpenRecovery. Follow prompts then wait a few untill a popup says its done.

Now just press Reboot Recovery...Done!

Option 2

Use Mobile Odin instead to install the recovery.

Free, lite version here on xda (easy search), paid full version is in store. I love this app!!!

Just press Recovery in Mobile Odin and browse to the recovery file.

Flash away!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] L1Wulf:
Worth mentioning -- deleting the files mentioned above obviates the need to do the battery pull which was required to keep TWRP from being overwritten on boot with stock recovery. Option 1 above requires root, is a few more steps but is probably the easiest way to get TWRP on your phone.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] leetone:
Did anyone tried flashing the newer modems on this rom? Such as the leaked 5?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Wildchld:
ok did the same thing and it works Thx now that explains what I have been seeing in the files about the phone needing to be a "master"

Need the source to change this but from what I have seen Samsung need to make the phone the "master" to get it to work with some systems so I guess if your BT device can handle being a "slave" and let the "master" take control this will work.

My car now works fine just hopped back in and music started right up and can make calls also.

Nice find!!!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Wildchld:
yep I4 and I5 suck for me its H3 or I3 are the best
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Wildchld:
Ok music Bluetooth works as explained above but now it acts like 2 different devices now but does work back and forth
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jbm0329:
keyboard

Besides the flashlight apps not working (I understand that there is a light included), it seems like if my phone is rebooted, I have to choose SwiftKey as my keyboard every time as opposed to it remembering that I set it already.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Thank you! I was starting to wonder if people ever noticed my many many posts with this info! This isn't just the safest and easiest way to get TWRP on your phone, its the ONLY way to keep it there. (If you've applied any ota patches that is)

Thanks for pointing it out man!

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kenv202:
is it normal for the phone to vibrate during the selection of setting for v10? like each time u select an option the phone would vibrate
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] gaww:
Yes I did.

Using 4 (which was latest in the ROM script as of last night. So far, i am seeing much better battery life - maybe twice as good as H2. I had been seeing calling eating up the battery before. This AM, 1 /1/4 hour call took only 7-8% of the battery.

I will not try 5 until I hear it is also very good with the battery.

Opps - was on powersave governor in System Tuner pro, so have set it back to on-demand to be apples to apples - lol.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jbm0329:
Yes, it is...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jwalters1123:
First off, thanks for the help, secondly, the problem for me is when I odin back to stock that takes away root. And once I apply the update patch, im still without root, hence unable to get odin To flash twrp, that never happens, odin just fails, so I cant get it to flash once let alone twice. I cant use goo manager or mobile odin cuz no root. So is it safe to assume I need to root the phone once I initially odin to stock? I ended up just going back to uvalem2 stock + root because I was fed up...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fcortes626:
since i couldnt install it i might just go to the previous leak (the second leaked version)

Can i use the I3 modem on a previous version?:confused:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Here's what I do, works every time for me, unless I do some dumb experiment during the process! :rolleyes:

From whatever rooted rom im on...

1) Flash the full UVALH2 fw using Mobile Odin Pro. Injects root every time for me.

2) Boot into new rom.

3) Verify root access.

4) Flash the ota update using Mobile Odin. Again, has rooted everytime.

5) Reboot, verify root

6) Delete the two files I mentioned.

7) Install preferred recovery.

8) Enjoy!

If you for some reason have problems with Mobile Odin Pro or don't want to pay for the paid version, replace steps 1 and 4 with this:

1a) Flash MrRobinsons root66 UVALH2 from Odin.

4a) Download Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper from play store.

4b) Protect root

4c) Reboot Stock Recovery

4d) Flash OTA update in stock recovery.

4e) Reboot

4f) Restore root in Voodoo

4G) Verify root

4h) Delete two files I mention below.

4i) Install preferred recovery.

4j) Enjoy!

Two files to rename or delete are:

/system/etc/install-recovery.sh

/system/recovery-from-boot.p

root66 is the same as stock fw but is pre-rooted. Find it here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1771687

I have had both success and failure with Voodoo. I've seen a lot of people report it working though so it was probably my fault when it didn't!

Hope this helps!

Adding this to the OP!

Thanks!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] L1Wulf:
I left XDA a long time ago because of the elitist attitudes -- but back then if anyone asked a simple question it was flame on. Now, most forums are more tolerant but damn, easily half of the posts here are repeats of either the same questions or the same answers to the same questions... It's making it hard to keep up with anything new.

I saw your explanation (again LOL) and thought "might as well answer the next two questions now..." Haha. As for it being the ONLY way -- yeah, deleting the files, but option 1 is essentially a no brainer as far as getting TWRP on the phone after you've handled the two files mentioned. I think ODIN scares a lot of people and as more and more people come here for their daily drivers (rather than testing, leaks, etc.) it's obvious that the easiest options are going to be the best for most people.

Side note: I've got nothing but mad respect for you, Wild and the other devs here. I'm not a Java person, so I haven't even looked at any Android source, but I'd seriously lose my **** if I had to put up with half of what you guys do here for one of my own projects.

We might not always say it (yeah, look at my post count, then look at my join date), but there are a lot of us that enjoy the fruits of your labors, handle our own problems and tweak the hell out of our phones using your apps, mods and builds. Sometimes I try to give back when I can either via donations, triage in forums or whatever. Keep up the good work guys, you're the reason Android is the OS of choice.

---------- Post added at 05:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:02 PM ----------

Modems should be compatible across leaks/ROMs. Use the aroma modem flash tool (linked in OP) to test out different modems. I think most people will tell you that your milage may vary between ROMs and modem versions, so don't be afraid to experiment a little -- what works best for you may not be the best for your neighbor and vice versa.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jwalters1123:
doc saves me again!

you saved my hide again doc! I was so aggrevated earliar, and this install guide is completely idiot proof, everything is in great working order thanks to you, and mobile odin is the ****ing mad notes yo, **** is on point! Im excited again, lol. anyway, i appreciate the time you took to school me again... much obliged sir, much obliged.

This is my first time flashing a TW jb rom, do I need to disable hw overlays on v10 or was that only for previous version ?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Beefvvl:
Wildchld will you be re-basing the ROM on the LI5 leak?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] L1Wulf:
Disabling was the work around for pinch zoom in the camera. I believe Wild said this was fixed in V6. I just tested and confirmed I am NOT disabled in dev settings and it works. I'm still on V6,but assume the fix carried over to v10. :thumbup:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fcortes626:
i tried but i got stuck on intalling the i3 update. the blue progress bar went all the way to the end but it never said complete or it never rebooted. i left it for like 25 minutes and nothing happened. i followed the previous steps but it was a no go. and i didnt want to brick my device. i ended up hard bricking for the second time last week on thursday and just got the phone back yesterday lol. it would be nice to see a cwm flashable tho:silly: lol
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
I have to agree with you on the elitst attitude of some. I've poked around some forums that just made me ill. I love that its not like that here! Much more fun this way!

Thanks for the compliments! Though I have to say, that while I'm confident enough with my knowledge of this stuff to dive in, experiment, and help folks out, I by no means consider myself a true dev. I can understand and edit some code, but i dont put myself in the same class as many of the other guys here! The real props imo go to devs like Wildchld, uoY_redruM, clark44, and chainfire to name a few. (Not to mention the rest of the guys around here that share their time, work and patience). They are the real rock stars of the Android world!

My goal is to try to help those guys out as much as I can while learning as much as I can along the way. And share some mods/ports and other work if I ever get around to finishing any of them!

Anyway, thanks again man! Your words are most appreciated!

Right on! Im glad I was able to help! Really good to hear such good things about my installation guide too!

And yeah, totally agree about Mobile Odin! Chainfire is just plain badass! Mobile Odin, SuperSU, Triangle Away to name a few. Just the fact that he pretty much rooted the i9300 before it was even released says it all! Considering all that its a no brainer to purchase his app. Its worth it all on its own as it is!

If the blue bar gets to the end, try vol up/down. Does the menu move around? If I remember right, I sat there waiting for a sec too, only to realize it was actually finished. Select reboot in menu like normal and you're done with that step.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ScottBroker:
Love your work wild, but I think the reason is the overly complex install process. V70 works great, V10, I cannot wifi tether or use my gallery. too many bugs for me. The new modem 6 leak however is giving me download speeds of about 25mbps :)

what?? did you not follow your own instructions? :p try again mate im running it just fine and just finished debloating it

also can i just replace my build prop with the one form v10 and get the same tweaks or would it need to be tweaked all over again from the beggining

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] vnguyen972:
Wild, love your Aroma installer and it went smoothly for me without any problem.

I have a request though, especially for the "Custom" installation part...

With Custom installation, I can pick and choose what to install and that's great ... but in the next version, could you make it so, I don't have to go through it as a wizard? I mean.. once in Custom, I can then pick if I want to install:

1. Rom

2. Kernels

3. Radios

4. Apps

5. Bloats

I'm asking because lets say I want to come back and try new Radios or new Kernels or pick an app that I didn't choose the first time... it'd be easier without having to reinstall the Rom and other things.

Is that feasible and acceptable request? :)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jbm0329:
I was under the impression that you could always go back and flash a new radio or modem without going through the whole ROM installation process. At least, I've done it with no problem... Guys, correct me if I'm mistaken.

Thanks
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] vnguyen972:
I went back and chose Custom but I still had to go through everything... I can still choose things but I can't not just install a new radio... if I remember it correctly...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Wildchld:
Its good now yea you can cut the tweaks from the end of the file and past to the new one.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jbm0329:
Right, but what I'm saying is that I just boot into recovery, flash a modem or kernel without involving the ROM installation process at all. I just choose the zip that I want to install and go from there. That way, I won't have to choose custom, normal, full, etc. because that's going through the Aroma ROM installation process. Hope that makes sense.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] vnguyen972:
Yes...that makes senses and that's what I've been doing too... I guess I was hoping not to have to separate zips to save spaces and just have one v10 zip to flash since it almost has everything in it. Oh well ;) thanks.
