So far after set up, I have not noticed every one of these issues. My battery life has been normal to really well and I always have wifi on. I actually went and redid the entire OP instructions all over again via mobile ODIN. After all the patches from li5 to li8, I installed TWRP and I wiped cache, system, dalvick and did a factory reset then I ran superwipe. I then installed v18 and been running pretty smooth with zero issues of my own to say. After I restored all my apps, I disabled HW overlays and changed all animations to 0.5x and then I rebooted to recovery and ran fix permissions. Before the reboot I did update busybox as well. So far I am running smooth as butter with good battery. I been using my phone for about 4 hours and I am at 87% battery life

+1 , Yes I have this issue as well, Dim Screen

+1 , Yes I have this issue as well, there are many options or settings to dim the screen. I Just received my 2nd "Extra" battery so I am not concerned with saving juice so I do not apply those energy saving settings and I still have that issue.

Hey Wild what are you using as your apktool? What version?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Im wondering if disabling hw overlays may be helping your battery drain....

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bdorr1105:
Hey Doc, I have been going back and forth between Verizon Forums and they been using our Jelly Bean leaks and experimenting, it is basically trial and error for the HW overlays, but I figured why not I do not notice a decrease in performance and I am not a gamer on the phone, I use it for texting, pictures, and internet and for me the phone runs smooth. I been moderate to heavy using with multiple text messages and what not and have not had bad battery at all. I did however redo the entire process from LH2 all the way back to the latest version...I also do not suffer from the dark light issue, however for those who are, just pull the drop down and uncheck auto, it will brighten up and then check auto again and it should resolve, its probably a minor bug if anything. Hope this post is helpful to others.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Yeah, I had updated the same way. Almost always do. After flashing any new rom or fw one of the first things I always do is go through settings one by one and turn off anything I dont use. (Plus its a great first step to finding any changes or new features). I've always had fantastic battery life doing this...until the last 2 leaks. Seemed like the main difference between what you and I did was the hw overlays which is why I mentioned it.

Im on a different build now and not really planning to change till the next leak, otherwise I'd happily test it out. (Another reason I mentioned it!)

Thanks for the input man!

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Swimguy14:
WILDor DOC or anyone smart:

I just noticed that in this particularlar rom the default kernel version is based off v3.0.31....

Now i know that CM is entirely different but the latest kernel in cmx is v3.0.43.

Pardon me if this is a stupid or irrelevant question but why does this sammy jb leak use the older kernel version?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serendipityguy:
Not a Dumb Question

Not a dumb question,

One is Stock and the other is CM.

I just dont think that there has been any stock kernels released because the Official JB is not been released yet.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Swimguy14:
That is what i surmised as well.

But then i wonder why sammy, especially with the multitude of public-release JB leaks, wouldn't have updated the kernel base/whatever you call it. Or Maybe they did it on purpose so that the official release is just that much "better"?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Im guessing that its because their main goal is stability and release. For example if they were to rebuild the kernel completely (or update it that much) it would likely cause both new compatiblility problems as well as make old ones resurface. By the time they got it ready there may be yet another update....

Correct me if im wrong but often with the cm/aokp kernels its easier to just patch the existing code to bring it up to the latest and greatest available.

Its been quite a while since I've messed with kernels at all and never knew as much as I'd like about them anyway, so I could be way off here. Hopefully someone else can chime in on it as well.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Swimguy14:
+1 on that,

taking into account the fundamental differences between cm and a tw rom it would make sense that updating the code for cm would be an easier process..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Wildchld:
OP Updated...

v19

Updated Busybox

Removed JB Keyboard

Added AOSP Keyboard

Fixed Modem Flashing

Added Bunch of Launcher2's (Thanks blgblade)

:cool:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Wildchld:
That's the Linux version used to compile the kernel. Newer versions are like Doc said newer options you can use.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TarHeelTrigger:
Wild, can you make the flashing of cmw or trwp optional? The new touch cwm is not agreeing with my phone.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] OxyClean:
Hey wild. Did you take out the default, modded touchwiz launcher? Or is it on of the ones below that you were using? And if so, do you mind stating which one it was? Found the one I think it was, but want to make sure. It's nice to have the option to change the scrolling wallpaper :)

My GS3 can never use the AOSP Keyboard, it just keep rocking with vibrations.

For some reason, My GS3 can never use the AOSP Keyboard, it just keep rocking with vibrations. what it the fix on this one?

Great efforts on this release WildChld. Maybe it is too early to start mixing in AOSP assets into this stock phone.

I like the STOCK look and feel. There are plenty opportunity to try the AOSP roms, but I have found that their assets at best come in marginally in comparison to the STOCK apps. The Keyboard, the Camera and Dialer are a distant 2nd place when it comes to the Stock TW Samsung assets.

Unless we get this resolved, maybe we could just scratch the AOSP features until we kill all of the bugs in this Stock rom.

What are you thoughts?, Anyone?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] lazarat:
The fix is in the market install one keyboard and works just fine. And i do not know what bugs do you find in this rom...

Sent from my SGH-T999
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serendipityguy:
Battery consumption by 40% over night, minor stuff like the keyboard and unknown vibrations..... Stuff that are present, but not as often. Sure this is a daily driver, hands down.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] lazarat:
Maybe you should do a clean install full wipe before flashing because none of those things you mentioned happen on my end. Battery drain overnight is because you probably have some app in the background refreshing every 10minutes. My battery dropped only 2% overnight but i have no push notifications on, no facebook auto update and crap like that.

Sent from my SGH-T999
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serendipityguy:
sure would like to use the AOSP keyboard, but it's just not happening for me lazarat

Yes I probably will because with every install I have used the Factory Reset / Then installed the Super wipe script and then continued with the install. This weekend I will Odin back to H2 then flash what ever is the current release.

I sure would like to use the AOSP keyboard, but it's just not happening for me lazarat.

Say saldebot, thanks for the link to the web page.

Your assistance is great here where it is needed, saldebot your feedback is valuable here in this thread. But do you think that you could be more specific with this link, to a web page with 14 different files.

Could you be a clear to list the file name for the other members here at XDA who may not be as senior as yourself and may not have a clue as to what file to download. :good:

Out of curiosity, why do we need the patch (OTA) if we have this rom and do a complete superwipe?

USA (T-Mobile)	2012 August	4.0.4	T999UVALH2	T999TMBALH2	Info

I followed the OP and had not problems just with a complete superwipe and flash.

Un Hho, I can confirm, this is an issue.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Regarding the call echo...

Im wondering if theres any other system edits that can be attempted, such as build.prop, init.d tweaks, etc. Seems like for most people with the echo problem are the ones who had it on previous builds/roms, so maybe it has to do with how their phone is connecting to towers in their area. From my own testing the build.prop edits such as gprsclass and hsxpa seem to be tower/location dependent for what values are best. Maybe its a similar issue?

Another theory is it could be kernel and/or driver related.

Im just throwing out ideas, maybe spark something someone hasnt thought of that could lead to an answer. It just doesnt seem to be totally rom dependent to me. Ive never experienced it regardless of rom, radio, kernel, etc. I have heard it before but its rare and usually hanging up and calling back would fix it. (One of the reasons i think it could be connection to tower). Naturally i could be way off but i think in the end itll be up to someone who has the problem to put in the time and effort to figure it out.

Sorry for the long post in here, just thought I'd share my thoughts on it!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serendipityguy:
I would image functions and usability, the first version was leak, such as this puppy. There were constant lock up with the applications. Most of the root applications were not working because of the Rom's Jelly Bean features wanted to validate permissions. We have access, data, phone, MMS, along with Tether (although I have not used this feature as of yet) :good:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] saldebot:
Thank you for your input and you are right, I went and edited the post. Again thank you for bringing that to my attention.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] MorePAIN:
Thanks buddy! Worked like a charm. Now I can say everything running smooth. Battery life is a ***** though. Probably need to let it sit at least a day though. Great job Wild! Thanks
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Make sure Disable hw Overlays is checked in dev options to fix camera.

The reason you should install the ota first is because it patches/updates not just the System/Rom portion. It also patches other partitions, including kernel, bootloader, etc. Flashing just this rom will not update these other parts which can lead to bugs and instability.

If you can afford the $5, get Mobile Odin off the market. It now supports zipped otas and makes this process a breeze. Plus it protects root!

Hope that all made sense to you.

Delete these:

I did install Goo Manager, now how do I get into recovery.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Look one post above yours! ;)

Also, if you open goo manager just select reboot recovery. Easiest way! But delete those files first!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Paging Dr B:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] MorePAIN:
Holy hell! How you pulling those numbers? You using the stock kernel?

Thanks This was the remedy and great tip!

Thanks This was the remedy and great tip!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sourabh_st:
Erm...thanks to Wild for the tip. I just re-stated it :)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Paging Dr B:
I was hitting high 5900's after a few reboots but as the phone began to warm up the numbers dropped. So I put it in the fridge for 5 minutes and ran those benches literally cold and hit crazy numbers. Yes I'm using the stock kernel with no mods.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serendipityguy:
The same way as usual or from the reboot option >> recovery.

Volume UP & hold the home and POWER bottons.

When you see screen light up with the instance of a image, or feel the vibration which is very prominate, let go of power and allow the recovery screen to follow threw.

Once this is complete, then you can let go of the home & volume.

Trust me, this is like neo of the matrix jumping his first building in the trainer,,,,,, nobody get's it right the first time and will take some practice.

I was able to load a VM on my iMac and BootCamp on my Notebook Pro. To Odin the actual TWRP.

So if you are having limited success from the reboot to recovery via goo manager installer. you may need to Odin...

But first Practice the techniques and check out YouTube loads of stuff over there.

Your interpretation of my question baffles me. I simply wanted to know the technical reasons beyond multiples wipes, rom/patch flashes etc that are recommended during the installtion. Do not assume other peoples ability or inability based on a question or see blame where there is none. I have been using Wildchilds ROMs and am thankful to him for all his work.

---------- Post added at 03:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:10 PM ----------

can anyone whose on this rom post a picture of there battery. dont actually need to see the battery need to see how high is android system. or can anyone confirm its down to normal?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] L1Wulf:
Rule of thumb: complete wipe crossing over from other ROMs, rebase of same ROM and major versions (ics to jb). Otherwise dalvik and cache.

Always exceptions and always try a complete wipe/reset if strange things happen.
