gotta say, the 4.3 feature i'm looking forward to most is the revised samsung gallery app. current one is a bit cumbersome and i rely on it a lot. related: weird that it doesn't have a built-in video player, right?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
Stock Camera and Gallery are pretty much the only stock apps I'm including :)

Thanks to [MENTION=4985020]Grouxho[/MENTION] the AOSP lockscreen is up and running :D Big thanks to him.

I also want to note this again, just for anyone that didn't see before:

The inital release will be BARE. Very barren. I'm practically starting all over again. I will gradually add things as they happen. If I spent time trying to get everything from 4,1.2 working, or looking the same then we'll still be here in the new year.

Also, the direction of this ROM has always been a hybrid/blend/mix of Samsung and AOSP. That mission statement has never been more relevant than it is today. However, now a new direction is being taken, replacing as much as the Samsung crap with AOSP stuff as default. This will be a "Google Edition" ROM and may well split into a new thread (haven't decided).
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SuperAce609:
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!! Google ftw. Omg. I was so jelly when I flashed the Google Play rom to my cousin's S4. I know we have AOSP but it's not as stable.

Will you be releasing everything by patches? Man I really can't wait now xD

---------- Post added at 11:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:48 PM ----------

I've no idea. Quickpic is my stock gallery. Always has been. As for video players, MX player has literally more than everything you need. Get it and you won't be disappointed.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] c_tho:
oh yeah, i use mx player but i find it slightly irksome that i need to switch apps to view media that appears in the gallery but won't play in the gallery.

i will try quickpic though, cheers.

also kryten it goes without saying but you are a god among men.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] renmo:
atm on omega and boefla got great battery life ,but i so want ultima 4.3 ,your mixed rom are so great that of all the roms i used (nearly all :))

i used yours the longest:D

thanks kryten :victory:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] zeyadrani:
I have a problem when trying to set the limit background process to 4..it alwayes backed to standard limit after restarting the phone..and if not restart it..the phone also perform like the standerd limit and killed all apps in the background...any help !??
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SuperAce609:
Oh that's easy.

Stop messing with that setting. ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] zeyadrani:
No..i doing this..because i have aproblem with task manager is it killed all my background apps :( i cant know where is the problem !? :(
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SuperAce609:
Oh wow I just realized the emojis aren't shown on XDA. That sucks. Anyway, what kernel are you using? If you're using boeffla kernel, you can head over to the thread and look for my settings. They work amazingly.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
Hopefully readying a beta for this weekend.

After today, all being well (that is, if this build I'm copying is good) I will NOT be doing any Android stuff until the end of next week. I've done it again, got an assignment due for Wednesday, need to do 90% of it in that time :/

Hopefully, beta uploaded tomorrow. 587MB :D Will get a little larger with the inclusion of more kernels and such, but not much. No themed apps will be included right now, since you can get them all here anyway: http://ultimarom.com/themed-apps/browse/
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SuperAce609:
Will you be doing OTA files? Since they were missing in v15. I can easily wait until everything's done. v15 is working great.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
Possibly. The OTA files are a massive PITA which is why i never got around to them this time around.

However they should be significantly smaller this time so.... Maybe lol

File was good. Couple of minor issues i can get sorted before uploading tonight.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SuperAce609:
Does 4.3 also move everything into a new folder like CM does? Into some /0/ folder or /emulated. It did on CM10.2, is it the same in sammy 4.3?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Racinghart91:
Good question im wondering that to
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
Yes, all 4.2+ ROMs do this.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Undermyoath:
My body is ready to test, already made some backups, will see how it's gonna handle everything :D

Sent from heaven
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DroidShift79:
the MK6 build is available.

http://www.sammobile.com/2013/12/13...y-s-iii-gt-i9300-and-galaxy-note-ii-gt-n7100/
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
Dunno why they're calling them test firmwares. People are getting them OTA.

I already have a build working with this. Will be uploading today in the beta forum :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] miketino:
Will we need to flash gapps for V16?:laugh:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
I suppose not. Gapps aren't neccessary for stock-based roms, even if they's a mix of aosp look/stock base as Ultima is. :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Saenic:
Well Google moved a lot of Stock Rom functionality into Google Apps (to make money with licenses)... like gallery and sms. But Samsung copied those functionalities and made Samsung Apps. So for Samsung Roms they are not necessary but for Aosp they are kinda ^^
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
I'm considering removing all gapps from the ROM and making a gapps package to install :)

Possibly even a Samsung one too!

Does anyone remember the alternative market app someone posted?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SuperAce609:
That would really take customization to a whole new level. It's slowly becoming "Assemble your own rom". So nice
[Galaxy S III Android Development] 4Smoky:
It was F-droid https://f-droid.org/
[Galaxy S III Android Development] miketino:
What is happening with the gallery apps? Will it still have the sammy gallery for the lockscreen wallpaper? Or will there now be just one overall wallpaper for home and lock screens like AOSP?:good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] NapsTer.VicTor:
Is this taking any longer? I don't wanna be annoying..but i cannot wait anymore guys.. I haven't flashed a new rom for 4-5 moths.. Kryten said he released a beta this weekend... where is it? or at least an information like next weekend it will be uploaded..THANK YOU !!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SuperAce609:
Stop asking for ETAs. Newb.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Racinghart91:
Thank you superace :P
[Galaxy S III Android Development] NapsTer.VicTor:
I'm not a newb, mate !! I just asked for a confirmation that there is a work in progress.. Because 4.3 is out for a month.. Just want to know that there will be a new version..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SuperAce609:
Yeah, and then when the next one is out, you'll be asking for an update. Learn to work with what you have. The way v15 is right now, there's literally no need for updates.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
There will be an update when this:

//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Name: WinMain()
// Desc: The application's entry point
//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
int CALLBACK WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, LPSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow)
{
Init();
//----------------------------------
// Register the window class
WNDCLASSEX wnd;
ZeroMemory(&wnd, sizeof(WNDCLASSEX));
wnd.cbSize = sizeof(wnd);
wnd.cbClsExtra = 0;
wnd.cbWndExtra = 0;
wnd.hInstance = GetModuleHandle(0);
wnd.lpfnWndProc = MsgProc;
wnd.lpszClassName = "MAIN_WINDOW";
wnd.style = CS_VREDRAW | CS_HREDRAW;

if ( !RegisterClassEx(&wnd) )
{
MessageBox(NULL, "Failed to register window class", "Registration Failure", MB_OK);
return false;
}
// Create the application's window
HWND hWnd = CreateWindow("MAIN_WINDOW",
"Ultima Engine",
WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW,
0,
0,
mBase->getWindowWidth(),
mBase->getWindowHeight(),
NULL,
NULL,
hInstance,
NULL);
if (!hWnd)
{
MessageBox(NULL, "Failed to create a window", "Creation Failure", MB_OK);

return false;
}
if( SUCCEEDED( mDirect3D->InitD3D(hWnd, hInstance)))
{
// Show the window
ShowWindow( hWnd, SW_SHOW );
UpdateWindow( hWnd );
// Enter the message loop
MSG msg;
ZeroMemory( &msg, sizeof(msg) );
while( msg.message!=WM_QUIT )
{
if( PeekMessage( &msg, NULL, 0U, 0U, PM_REMOVE ) )
{
TranslateMessage( &msg );
DispatchMessage( &msg );
}
else
{
g_dCurTime = timeGetTime();
g_fElpasedTime = (float)((g_dCurTime - g_dLastTime) * 0.001);
g_dLastTime = g_dCurTime;

mDirect3D->Render();
}
}
}

return 0;
}

Is not a large portion of my life. Which will be after Wednesday. Which means I can THINK about updating, after Wednesday.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] draxterix:
Goodbye Ultima.

"Learn to work with what you have" - this is noob answer.

If you want more - shut up and keep quiet... so hard to understand that people are waiting for something new? Earlier rom was issued every three weeks, now silence. Undestand - people want to know what and how.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Goldie:
Any you feel you have some divine right to know what and how? Kryten will post when he wants and all demands to know what and how will probably make that later rather than sooner.

Enjoy wherever youre going that made you say goodbye :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
Exactly. And there hasn't been silence. I post often enough and keep everyone up to date with my ongoings.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SuperAce609:
And just who are you demanding answers? A noob will always ask for updates to make things "better". Someone that DOES know will max out what they have. Learn how to administer your resources instead of asking for more. I don't want more. Updates are appreciated, yes, but not needed. The way Kryten makes these roms are meant to be long term. Someone on the thread was running V6 from who knows when and didn't realize v13 was released already. Understand - people need to stop demanding and start looking around at what they already have. Newb.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] miketino:
I'm personally just grateful that Kyten puts his effort, and his time, which nobody has enough of, into making a rom for a phone that he doesn't even use anymore. He obviously isn't doing this for himself, he's putting his time into a completely free product with no financial gain, and people don't have the decency to recognise that. On behalf of everyone, thank you Kryten :highfive:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] EP21:
Only thing that i wish from this ROM is to be able to use it as a 4.1.1 S3@1.2ghz 440mhz at 4.3(newer if Devil or Googy) @ 1ghz 350/333mhz [Now that would be an awesome ROM and Kernel combination] :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] renmo:
'kryten take your time with your rom and thank you for all your work:you do in your spare time good: ,

i do want to say one thing that bothers me (and probably others)

i and many others are looking forward to flash the new rom

some even get carried away and ask for eta which is a clear NO GO (if your bored flash a other rom or play with settings etc)

but i do want to ask if rules are broken either tell them on a normal way ( exsample : calling people you dont know newb isnt) and else leave it up to the dev or admins .

if any of you think this is about you , , grow up because i say this generally and i'm not pointing at people .

i for one hope we can have a nice and clean thread about the rom :fingers-crossed: and thank you all for reading this :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] treb88:
you are right..people just need to learn to respect the dev...they can always check the forum if the update is coming out..and they will know if the forum is still alive or not..kryten is in silence for now, cause what have said, he might be doing something for the rom or maybe there is no need for an update..just keep checking the forum if there is an update..you will know..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] c_tho:
Kryten has made it absolutely clear on previous pages:

- what he is working on,

- where it is up to, and

- what other commitments he has that are holding him up (i.e. actual life).

There is absolutely no excuse for ETA requests, whether they be overt or thinly veiled (of the "I'm not asking for an ETA but..." variety).

Kryten puts an immense amount of work into this ROM for very little in return. Even if you have donated, it's unlikely you've paid as much as he deserves from you. He has absolutely no obligation to keep any of us informed of anything at all, but he always does. Any argument to the contrary is just false entitlement.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] psichokillah:
I've squished from 15.1 as much as I've could. :cyclops: I'm on 4.3 but I miss all the Ultima customization that's why I'll be patient waiting for this release. It will be AMAIZIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING, as always.

So, Kryten, take your time and get this right and thank you for all the releases.

One thing, though. What do I have to do with Ultima to have a theme in white? I like the features but sometimes I want to try something different while keeping all what Ultima offers.

/just asking.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] miketino:
You want white? WHITE? What is this white you speak of? :laugh:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SuperAce609:
If you've ever seen 4.4, you'll understand.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] psichokillah:
Are you blind? I said a WHITE THEME! :rolleyes: instead of blue.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Goldie:
Is that not red? :P
[Galaxy S III Android Development] damithark:
Is there another kernel to rectify the lag?.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kroustibat:
@Kryten2k35 hi mate you did a real good job i like your style your rom is great no probleme for now :) it miss just one thing... OTA :P if you could do it it will be very thankfull

and you'r the only one how answear so faaast :P thank you
[Galaxy S III Android Development] zoomee:
My first custom ROM on my S3 and I chose this one :)

Glad I did as it works very well and smoothly.

I have a couple of issues though:

A)- T-Mobile APN had to be added manually (T-mobile UK)

B)- Location detection on the stock clock/weather widget only works via a GPS link.

Otherwise seems very slick and smooth - love the theme, don't destroy it by adding in too much that people will bug you for (i.e. extra apps etc)

Keep up the good work mate, well done :) :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
It is supported :sly: it's supported by default on most Android ROMs. If by threaded you mean the speech bubbles in the screenshots.

Either way I have disabled anything like that

This seems to happen for some people :( not sure why it happens. I think it's a problem with busybox on the phone. Check the downloads section for the wallpapers!

It haven't disabled anything and not sure how/why I would :p

The stock kernel is actually great!

I used Siyah for most of yesterday without lag, but then my phone was crippled at about 8pm using Firefox, so I'm back to stock. There's also GalaXsih and Perseus which have always been decent in the past.

I can check this out :) it'll make incremental updates and downloads easier for people!

I think that's true of the stock Accuweather widget I'm afraid, not sure about the APN thing. I guess that happens sometimes?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] senses!:
Only Music and Video Player App are problem in your interface

The Rom iS AMAZING, the best jb ROm
[Galaxy S III Android Development] saitek1911:
does this rom include DSB Manager or Beats audio or something?

becuase i have this expensive headset that is capable of so much more than the stock samsung rom can provide. (base)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
Ah, yeah, this is part of a bug in the Jelly Bean Domination theme. Should be sorted within the next version or so.

Guys, just a note, I've seen a lot of you thanking me for my amazing look... that honour should go to Vertumus. I've done a few things like create the 15 toggles mod for his theme and the battery icons but the rest is him :)

No, but I can put that on the to do list :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] senses!:
Call Recording Mod please
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
DSP/Beats and Call Recording added to the to-do list. I'm working through it top to bottom
[Galaxy S III Android Development] saitek1911:
To bad =( that kinda killed it for me right now.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] senses!:
And Gmail / Talk / Google Now Black? jajaja
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
All I can find is AC!D which isn't working for everyone judging by the comments.

I can try :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] saitek1911:
Will this work with CWM Manager v3.60

and my current recovery: CF-CWM-v1.5

will it work?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
Should do :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] saitek1911:
witch wipe shall i use? full vipe or normal vipe? coming from stock samsung rom official
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
Hmm, ICS? Super Wipe. Backup your internal sdcard first (external will not be wiped).

JB? Normal wipe. noth sd cards will be fine :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kamalsutra:
I tried the Phenom Kernel 4.0 Extreme....working smoothly
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
Link? :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] zoomee:
Didnt have problems with stock li8 accuweather but not sure about lib. nothing reported about it in stock rom thread i think mate.

Usually i'm prompted on the stock rom to select between either t-mobile or virgin shortly after a factory reset and the phone boots . this time there was no prompt and it set itself to virgin so i had to manually add in the correct apn.

thanks dude
[Galaxy S III Android Development] saitek1911:
FEEDBACK!

Just did a clean flash, with Syiah Kernel.

And the phone works just fine.

2 Major problems for me right now!

1: I read a bit back that the Syiah Kernel has MAJOR Lag Spikes?

Becuase if i listen to music and install and app from playstore, the phone freezes up for 13 seconds then it slowly gains fps and then is back at full speed.

Is this because of the Syiah Kernel? should i reflash with another kernel? if so Witch one? what's the diffrence between them? (bit newbie)

2: please add DSB Manager, for better sound, it's so much appriciated that it can provide better quality for those who need it.

Other than that it's epic!

PS: wallpaper did not work :(

Let me know!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ickoicko:
Hmm..I'm using XXDLIB JB ROM too..I think I should reflash and make it NEDJL1 (not sure of the name)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] skricciolo1981:
:good: Great job mate, the best rom!;) A question: I have installed the camera 4.2, and now I have two picture galleries ... you know how to delete or hide the default? I want to keep the gallery of the Note but the widget gallery of Nexus ... thanks a lot
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ickoicko:
Just an update, I changed to NEDLI1 coming from XXDLIB that fixed the long charging time problem.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] alexxx87mi:
i've got a little problem...my screen doesn't turn off automatically...i've tried with phenomenal kernel, perseus and galaxsih
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ickoicko:
Did you check your screen timeout setting?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] auralzx:
does this ROM have MDNIE tweaks for better screen sharpness?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] thekoRngear:
It had been frequent to me. I went to settings: App Man> there if you see Factory Test is running then close it. I closed it and now the prob is much less frequent.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] vinokirk:
This was exactly the same on FoxHound. You would have to download a file about five times before it would actually complete.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lexje:
I am on NEDLI1 form day ons. But still have long charging time
[Galaxy S III Android Development] btje:
Try an other kernal. Siyah can set the charge rate connected to usb to 900 mAh

Charge rate has nothing to do with LI1or LIB
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lexje:
Ok will try. Thx
[Galaxy S III Android Development] bofh1:
Android keeps upgrading?

Rally great ROM:good: Thank you Kryten.

I just upgraded from 3.0 to 4.1.1. and a popup keeps telling me "Android is upgrading, starting apps." everytime I boot the phone. Is that normal (haven't noticed that at last in 3.0)?

Just one wish: is there any chance to start / stop a VPN connection by a toggle and can the order of toggles changed? If so, how?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DonHuan:
You can change toggles order in QuickPanel Settings (it's an app installed with the rom).
[Galaxy S III Android Development] bofh1:
Thanks mate, but I must be blind..... I use the stock launcher and cannor find that QuickPanel Settings App.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
You should delete one of them :) The older one. Have alook in the CAmera 4.2 zip and see which gallery is incluided (I think it's gallery2 or soemthing?) and delete the other from system/app

If you install Siyah, yes :)

Try clearing the cache in recovery. That might help.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] skricciolo1981:
thanks mate, but I solved it by hiding the gallery menu apex, thank you mate;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] brodiniozo:
Great ROM! *bookmarked*
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mosec:
I can confirm that JKay framework including aosp lockscreen works perfectly with Ultima. Kryten will you consider including the aosp lockscreen in the next version?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DonHuan:
Try to find this icon:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] thekoRngear:
Till now I have no problem downloading with OTA.

With OTA I do not feel the need to go to the download website DL the Zip file Putting it on my phone by connectivity means And finally flash it by manual recovery. It has now become ol' school to me. Hail OTA, hail Krtyen. xD
[Galaxy S III Android Development] miketino:
Haha I just meant Ultima should always be black haha , white colours on amoled screens absolutely destroy battery life just so you know :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SuperAce609:
He definitely said trading the blue for white. Blue being status bar icons and such. 4.4 style
[Galaxy S III Android Development] miketino:
Why's everyone getting so butt hurt about it, it was an inoffensive joke
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SuperAce609:
About what? Maybe I missed the joke and went into literal explaining. If you read carefully, there's no personal intentions behind my replies. Therefore, your assumption of "everyone's" mood is a complete negative.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Goldie:
I laughed. Guess the guy who asked didnt get it :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lpuboy87:
does anyone else have a bluetooth problem ? when I connect my headset and using it on a call...after a few minutes it disconnects the headset..i gotta turn bluetooth on and off to get it back connected only to have it disconnect again after another few minutes :confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Rohil.khadgee:
No such problem here .....
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jordyboy123:
Activity surely has dropped on here. This saddens me, I like to hear what other people have issues/solutions to, and it's kinda just stopped. Maybe UltimaROM is coming to an end, sad times!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
^ No it's not.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] THE.W!ZARD:
^ I believe you will bring something amazing, although it is late :D
