Reason there aren't many or any themes yet are the versions change to fast and twrp doesn't work with vrthemes. So I'm on the process of re writing Aroma so this isn't an issue anymore. Once done I will have clocks, colors, mods, ect and backup/restore option also. Its a ton of scripting, testing, and re editing so it all works. I say I'm about 50% done now and hoping to be complete by the time the release version of JB comes out.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
For screenshot you now have to go into motion settings and turn the whole motion feature on. Then you can pick and choose whichh ones you want, including screenshot.

I highly doubt there are themes for this. Many themers are prob holding off till the official release. The leaks are coming out to fast for anyone to reasonably expect them to keep up with it.

By the time someone got a theme working for this, a new leak would be out and people would be asking why they cant find themes for it! Patience is key!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serendipityguy:
can you do some OP maintenance

I did not see a patch in the OP regarding Video Recording.

Say WildChld, will you be able to clean up the OP, it has listed the LI3 patch still and this may confuse others now that we are on the LI5 & LI8 patch. So during your next release, can you do some OP maintenance.

I am very happy with the Aroma, this makes the updates just so easy. Great work. I am not been heavy on the phone, but all seems ok so far.

If there is a patch for Video, will some one please post it.

If you were able to find this thread on your own you should be able to find the thread titled [MOD] [CWM] JB TW AUDIO FIX ..it's even in this same subforum

:facepalm:

If you guys would spend 1 minute browsing or *gasp* searching (yes there is actually a search function) you could answer these questions on your own and then we all wouldn't have to sift through pages and pages of repetitive posts that comprise 75% of every single thread.

I realize I did a dirty flash, but is there a reason (other than dirty flash) why my notification bar won't pull down. Also, I have a (looks like a letter "i") with a slash through it on the notification bar.

Any clues on either?

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Osolot:
I really like the detailed instructions started by DocHoliday, then modified by Themcknights. I don't want to clutter up the instructions, but I've had (and seen) questions about which OTA files to use going to step 4.

Looking at the chart for OTA files in the posting by serendipityguy, it's starting to make a little more sense to me. Go to link and look at chart and make sure you're on the correct version that will allow you to use the right OTA.

Please correct me if I'm wrong here:

Once on VALH2 all of the OTA's are Jelly Bean fw Except VALI5, which is quite a bit smaller (and keeps you with Ice Cream Sandwich fw.)

So I don't have to continue flashing each progressively higher OTA so long as I start on VALH2.

However, in order to get to the latest fw VDLI8, I must be on VALI5. (based on chart)

I see this leaving me with either of two options.

1. It seems it would be best to mobile odin to VALH2, then use OTA VALI5, then OTA VDLI8, which would get me to the latest fw available for Jelly Bean.

OR

2. I could mobile odin to VALH2 and then OTA VDLI7. However this is not the latest fw.

I don't know if you can go to OTA VDLI8 from VDLI6 or VDLI7 or if it would be necessary.

At this point I think I'm finally ready to pull the trigger on this ROM. I'm still on XquiziT v70 and loving it. Seeing some of the confusion that I've had getting cleared up and all of the excitement from those that have already flashed this is really starting to give me that little needed push.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] pantect:
I had same problem with those instructions on two different phones so this is what i did with odin (

did you change the ota at all? the one you that fails the sig verification?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] pranay7777:
what do you mean by "change the ota at all"?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] pantect:
i would recommend going to I3 first after VALH2 then flash VALI5 and so on I3 does 4 different partitions on the phone hence the reason for the size I5 is an update to it. other than than you have the right idea.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] lokichim:
like what i did was open it and remove the install and the other file that replaces the stock recovery but thats what made it fail on me. then i downloaded the ota gain without removing or adding anything and worked

li3 isnt needed. li8 is pretty much li3. but it goes h2-li5-li8. the same that li7 tooked the place of li3 .li8 does now
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] pantect:
So the question is why do you need i5 if li8 is the same, why go backwards to li5. just asking?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] lokichim:
were not going backwards. when li3 was leaked it was the whole package, the way they did it was use li5 to prepare the system for li8

i could be totally wrong but its what this says http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&model=SGH-T999&pcode=TMB&os=1&type=1#firmware

pretty much h2 to li5,li5 to li8

Hey Wild There is another leak out T999UVDLI8, yes it is the same name as the last but instead of having to be on T999UVALI5 to update you have to be on T999UVALH2 in order to update. Looks like JB could be right around the corner as now you can update from stock T999UVALH2. This one is 1.1MB larger than the last LI8.

this is not my day lost data after restore, not the first time today, well looks like its not related all my phones have no data
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] L1Wulf:
Wow, bad day for sure. :banghead:

Sounds like the common factor is the recovery from backups maybe? Did you go through the full, long upgrade/patching process prior?

Considering the total loss of data, it might be worth it to start from H2 and do the full upgrade process to I8.

I feel your pain man. It happens to us all but a clean slate should get you back on track.

well shows 4g, but no data on 3 phones so its tmobile, had this problem before, so i thought it was me, so started from scretch, guess what same problem again, this time i checked 3 phones no data called tmo no problems in my area, yeah right wonder why it works on edge but not on 4g of course they dont know. this time at least i did not wipe my phone before i called

OP Updated.... v18

v18

Re-Based off the H2 to I8 (lots of new files)

Video Record Fix Thanks to djintrigue808

Added Note 2 Camera and Gallery

Added JB Keyboard

Ok could not replace the file that we assume is causing the battery drain... Its created when the rom is loaded... New base so hopefully its gone.

As I was prepping my phone the H2 to I8 came out so I made a base from it and found a lot of files were different.

So this is based off of that. Yes still have to add the other Launcher and a few other things but I was done after working

on getting my phone backed up and all the new nandroids.

Well damn! I am sorry to everybody! Don't I feel dumb now! I flashed the ota and it appeared to me that they were pretty identical. (Didn't pull and do a side by side, so lesson learned I guess). Seemed to have same kernel, same build, same bugs....

I dont think the battery is bad on V17 I have my screen on full brightness. What do you guys think
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ipaq_101:
Well Genius, the roms have been up for about a day now.

Guess what you can flash both of them within a day and it is quite easy to benchmark the battery drain.

I tried v17 first yesterday and I got a lot of battery drain and the culprit was "Android System".

I tried Frosty before I went to bed yesterday and after a full charge overnight I have disconnected for 92 minutes with 25% discharge and the culprit is "Android System".

I never had this problem on "T999UVDLI7" but both "T999UVDLI8" roms I have tried have the battery drain issue.

I am just trying to find out if anyone else is having this issue and if it is a known issue.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Maybe they'll be moving to a hex based numbering now! UVDLIA-F!? :what:

When I was running the H2 version I really didn't notice any difference. Seemed like someone just repackaged the ota to patch LH2, so I dont know.

Either way, thanks again for your work and for making sure everybody got the latest available!

Thanks. I know it wasn't really a big mistake, but I was all over the place trying to "inform" everyone!

Really was just trying to help cause I hated thinking of everybody wasting time with something I thought was identical to what we already had. Dont like seeing the devs getting asked over and over if they're gonna rebase too.

Ahh well, I appreciate the forgiveness regardless. I certainly will be more diligent in checking similar stuff in the future!

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Just thought I'd chime in real quick on the battery issue. I noticed the heavy drain on both LI7 and LI8, but worse on 8. I saw some folks blaming wifi calling but im not sure that its the only culprit. I ran both builds for a good while, li8 about a day and a half I think running through 2-3 charge cycles. Wifi calling is one of the first things I disable after a flash and the entire time I was still getting the heavy drain. Not saying wifi calling isnt a problem, but that its probably not the sole contributor.
