Patch is OTA, check the OTA app for this.

Changelog is in the app, but also:

Fixed SIM PIN error when using AOSP lockscreen

Fixed syncing Google Contacts when using Samsung Contacts and Phone

Added full call recording controls to Samsung Phone (NOT AOSP Phone)

Added Call recording controls to UltimaControl

Readded PageBuddy settings - Some people on virtual Networks may need to turn off the roaming notification

Added possible AllShare cast fix

Added possible Bluetooth fix

Fixed install bug when user picked a preset

Removed PageBuddyNotifSvc. Can't figure out how to make it larger, and thus it looks ugly. I'll figure something out in future

Removed SimpleWidget.apk. More bloat

Added Android Terminal Emulator to the installer

Full ROM will come shortly. Will not be OTA.

Thanks Kryten, im having tons of problems with v17 startrd from camera now the wifi. So i reverted back to v16. Still awesome!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
Uploading fixes for both now.

I really miss the Galaxy S3

New ROM looks great :cool:

[MENTION=3443334]Kryten2k35[/MENTION] The latest stable diablo v17 doesn't work even after full wipe, data, system, factory reset, fix permissions, etc.

When it start, it says ever: "Unfortunately, the process com.android.systemui has stopped.

Please fix it, it's unusable! :eek:

Thanks for everything

[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
That issue is fixed in the patch, for now do this:

Flash the zip again. Choose wipe nothing

Pick Samsung Lockscreen. Keep all other options the same

Install

Boot the device. The problem is now gone. However...

Remove the SIM PIN

Flash the zip aGAIN, and rechoose AOSP Lockscreen. Keep all other options the same

Boot. Now download the patch, flash it (it's only small) boot

Finally reenable sim pin.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Paiong:
Hi Kryten, glad to see the fixes are coming fast! Think I'll wait until it's the full rom rather than flash the patch.

Just wanted to ask about the kernels - in the installer, you recommend Archiport kernel, which is what I flashed. The rom is running smooth (I had to fix the wifi and the android.process.acore/whatsapp problem but that's it) but I noticed that my battery is draining a lot quicker than before (it's only been 3 days since I flashed this so maybe need to give it time to adjust?). I was running V17 beta with Boeffla kernel for months and the battery was superb. Just wondering, are there any advantages to running Archiport and why it's recommended in the installer? I was thinking of flashing Boeffla again.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
When I wrote recommended, only ArchiPort supported swap, but now Boeffla supports it too :) You can choose that.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] zago84:
OK Kryten, I'll try so.

But do you think release a version without this bug?

Thanks a lot

P.S. Where can I find the patch?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Paiong:
Ah okay thanks! I'll give this a few more days to see if it calms down, if not then I'll flash boeffla. By the way, do you recommend going through the v17 installer again to reflash the kernel or can I just download boeffla separately and flash it through recovery?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:

You can install at any time :)

Well, they did look a little wide for me. This is as Samsung coded it!

Is MHL supported in this ROM?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
You can tell me.

I've added the fix here in the attachment below, because I wouldn't want to wait until the next release personally, so there you go :)

It's on Github now as well and will be in all future versions.

Everyone else

There are also Wi-Fi and Camera fixes in the download link. If this was something that affected you.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Paiong:
Did not expect the updated 17.1 to be released so fast! Thanks Kryten! Good timing too as I was about to flash Boeffla kernel. Will download and flash this tonight. Will let you know how it goes.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sunilzs:
Hi, thanks for the beautiful rom.. its amazing and smooth...

thanks a lot..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cgren:
Kryten, thanks for 17.1 and for the fix, camera and wifi is awesome! You're the best!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Choristav:
I replaced secsettings, systemUI, ultimacontrol and the lib
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Nevii:
Your fix is not working for me :( Switches looks exactly as they were. I have wiped dalvik/cache after flashing .zip. Also, I have noticed that when i call to someone, voice on my speaker is highly disorted, could it be related to HD Voice?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] rafu997:
For me, fix also doesn't work. I flashed clean rom with full wipe and then fix.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] DylanVR:
Hey guys,

first time i'm using Ultimarom and it's looking pretty dope.

i got a view problems and questions.

Rom update doens't work for my, when i try to download i got the message that rom update is stopped...

Statusbar is weird, when i touch the wifi button it shows me the wifi perferences and also with the Data.

Is there a solution that i only have to tap it and just wifi goes on and doesnt show me the wifi perferences?

With my previous rom i could swipe left (down) to see the first statusbar and swipe right (down) to see the statusbar buttons.

Is there a solution for this?

Camera doesnt recognize my SD card...

thanks for answering my questions!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] wmas:
hmmm, just giving a feedback after trying v17.1 for 1 day

the bluetooth settings is fixed! thanks [MENTION=3443334]Kryten2k35[/MENTION]

but im getting random reboots and freezes in this version

never had any on v17

EDIT : is there any difference on archikernel in both versions?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] you_man:
where to find on and off sync? оО
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Paiong:
Hey Kryten, flashed last night, everything's working fine and smooth (the only thing I had to do with flash the wifi fix) - everything else was fine. Thanks!

Just one question: does the kernel affect the display in any way? I flashed Boeffla last night and the display/icons/fonts look different to me, like slightly grainy or something. I felt like it looked better when I had Archiport running. Or maybe I'm just imagining things?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
Please get me a logcat of the ROM Updates error.

For Wi-Fi uick settings, long press to turn on and off. Remember this is a stock SystemUI, not like CyanogenMod or Omni, this is like Nexus/AOSP.

I'd check your SDcard, maybe pull it in and out again.

ArchiKernel is the same in both versions. The random reboot is an error within most Samsung 4.4.2 ROMs. There is an xposed module out there to correct it until Samsung does, but I don't have the link handy.

The presets in the installer for Boeffla do affect the display settings. You can simply change them via the Boeffla config app.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sirdigitalpython:
Made the jump from ultimaaosp back to this one last night... Smoothest ROM hop I've ever done lol...

Smooth so far

Ran with default archi kernel but MA phone kept getting to hot and restarting... So switched back to boeffla Sammy kernel... No issues (my usual power saving profile)..

Wondering if there is a config app for archi kernel, like the boeffla one... Very happy with this set up anyway...

And I know you hate it [MENTION=3443334]Kryten2k35[/MENTION] but using xposed with no issues... I just tested each mod and setting individually to ensure they work as desired.... Its just so hard not to use it...I'm an xposed addict,I need help! Lol

Congrats to you on a great ROM!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
There is an STweaks version of ArchiKernel 1.3, but I'm not sure I liked how it was working to be honest.

UltimaAOSP 1.2 will come soon enough :) I'm having some issues with it in that you can only seem to use ARchiKernel and have working video recording functions. Which is insane, but at least with ArchiKernel it works. I'm blaming Cyanogen's smdk4412 kernel shambles, since AK is based form stock Samsung sources, fully, whereas codeworkx stopped updating the kernel around update9, apparently (AK is update13)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] you_man:
[MENTION=3443334]Kryten2k35[/MENTION], where to find on and off sync?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
Probably under account settings?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Nevii:
Fix for switches in Polish. Could you also help me to get rid of disorted sound when making/receiving call?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Paiong:
Thanks Kryten, been messing around with Boeffla config settings.

Everything smooth so far, perfect.

p.s. have to say, in my opinion Archiport kernel seems to be smoother and faster than Boeffla. Only downside to Archiport that I've experienced is the battery drains way too fast.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Jamesr1292:
with regards to the new UltimaAOSP, will it have all of/some of the things you have done with Diablos or will it be another new take on your AOSP Rom?

I would love to go back onto Ultima Rom but i am starting to like AOSP so i may just wait and see what the new one is like.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sunilzs:
Could not find that option under account settings..

Could anyone please tell where is the option to turn off auto sync..

Also it would have been nice if there was an option to add and remove options in quick settings in notification panel..

and is there a way to theme this launcher 3... using cyanogen themes?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
If the distortion is constant throughout the call, you should use the Samsung Contacts and Phone instead (unfortunately, but you gain some mods).

IF it's just a little at the beginning of the call, (like for me) then I just deal with it since it's not a constant thing, but again, if that bothers you, Samsung Contacts and Phone are the only way out :(

You could try the ArchiKernel 1.3.1 and install Stweaks from the market, play with the settings of that, see if that does anything for you?

Boeffla, of course, is still a solid kernel.

This ROM actually takes a lot from UltimaAOSP :) Browser, SystemUI, Phone, Contacts, DownloadsUI and Messaging. All I've done with Diablos is try to make it more like AOSP like UltimaAOSP :)

The new version has a new base source tree, rather than SuperNexus, it uses [MENTION=4354408]broodplank1337[/MENTION]'s AOSP base for the SGS4. Everything works ebtter, imho, except for the camera... the only solution is using ArchiKernel. Which, having spent over a month on the issue, I'm ready to give in and concede and state openly that only ArchiKernel is compatible (if you want working video recording).

First order of business will be updating the source code, fixing one or two mods that got lost in the move, and then I will start to develop new features (which will then make their way into UltimaROM, if possible).

No, this launcher isn't compatible with Cyanogen themes. The whole framework has to be built for it.

I have no idea where the auto sync setting is.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Paiong:
Ahh good idea. I'm assuming the UltimaRom Stock Kernel.zip that you uploaded to the main website along with 17.1 is ArchiKernel 1.3.1? If so I'll grab that. Cheers Kryten.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
No, that's a totally stock i9300 (technically the ArchiPORT kernel) that some people require to get their camera working properly :) ArchiKernel has it's own thread on here.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Paiong:
Ahh okay, I see.

So the one included in the v17.1 installer, which kernel is that? The one that's recommended - is that the totally stock one or the ArchiKernel 1.3?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
The one in the installer is ArchiKernel I don't include the stock i9300 (ArchiPort hybrid kernel thing) because it's crap. ArchiKernel is much better as a "stock" kernel... but I ahve to include that zip so folk can fix their camera.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] LegendM:
Just installed rom,everything works great and smooth.Just have few problems,first off all,root is broken and we have to install supersu for getting root.After that,it's working great

And updater app is weird,I just downloaded latest version of rom but updater shows 17.0,anyway I downloaded update it reboot to recovery but nothing happens? I was using philz touch but I think rom installation installed twrp

Thanks for great rom [MENTION=3443334]Kryten2k35[/MENTION]
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Paiong:
Ahh got it. Thanks Kryten!

I'm going to run this Boeffla for a few more days, I'm starting to get used to it, plus the battery life is really good.

Everything's working great so far. Even got Gravity Box KK running with no problems (mainly for the quick tile settings). :good:

Any resumable link for 17.1?

My download stops as the romhut page expires, i have a slow connection 1 mbps.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ashutoshsinghy2k:
Yeah! You should use UC browser cloud download. After it gets downloaded in uc disk then u can download the ROM anytime with resumable link

if I helped you don't forget to press thanks button
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Rangs641:
Use Internet Download Manager. Best app for download
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
Hmm root had been done so far for me. Did your enable the open recovery script stuff in the settings for the ota updates? If so I'll have to look into it ad in sure philz supports ORS
[Galaxy S III Android Development] LegendM:
Bump,need answer
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
I answered:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] pensador:
He kryten, good work again!I see (read) a lot of smiling faces here!I waited for your beta to come official...and there it was ;). Still on v15 here ;).I want to flash 17 but I really like the custom curtain/quick settings. I read here that you can do this with gravity box. But is there any way you will include this feature in the future?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] zago84:
Thanks a lot [MENTION=3443334]Kryten2k35[/MENTION] for 17.1 release, now I can install ROM but after first wizard I notice that apps like contacts/phone dialer, chrome, keyboard crashes or closing automatically even after some minutes of usages. It's very frustrating.

I have installed the rom after full wipe and everything on recommended except Samsung Contacts (and twrp recovery doesn't reinstalled).
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
Not currently until I write in such support via AOSP.

Again, I can't do a damn thing about any crash anyone reports without a logcat.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baggio4378:
Tried to install but after reboot I can't get past the samsung splash screen. I was able to flash 17.0 before...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
Barely anything has changed since then so, just fixes to files.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baggio4378:
Actually I went back to android 4.2.2 then tried to flash 17.1 and I get stuck at the samsung screen any ideas?

EDIT: instead of choosing Samsung in aroma installer I chose custom
[Galaxy S III Android Development] pensador:
Ok...thnx
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
No idea. You should try a full wipe.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] LegendM:
I'm sorry I must miss that,anyway I just choose open recovery in settings and updated perfectly

Thanks for help,and also can you add some toogles to notification center.There're few important toogles missing,for example screen rotation lock is very important for me and I coudlnt find setting to disable multi window :highfive:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] pensador:
You can use gravitybox for your toggles
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
For now, yep, this is the best solution.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ashutoshsinghy2k:
Is there any way to increase the icon size like googlenow launcher
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Chimengfc:
How about Aosp lock screen? Do you have plan to add more app on it like phone, messages, camera,....?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] abhibnl:
Man read the last few pages. He said he would but with time, and i assume aosp phone,mms,camera all are included aosp version already! And aosp lock screen too. Haven't tried the rom though.

Sent from Galaxy S3 Powered by Temasek + Boeffla
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mosh Edd:
as it was said, use Gravity Box for toggles, though maybe you don't like using xposed, that maybe a problem :p for multiwindow, seriously...settins, display, multiwindow, untick that, or you can just long click back button to disable it temporarily.

on another issue, maybe [MENTION=3443334]Kryten2k35[/MENTION] can help me answer this, I don't know if it is me alone, but when on a call, my other caller hears lots of noise from my side, this is evident even for voice recording. it could be a kernel issue please advice, thanx in advance.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
Samsung Contacts and Phone?

There are some options for sound and noise cancellation when you're in call. If you're using Samsung Contacts and Phone then there isn't much I can do, as that's the stock stuff. Even the voice recording stuff is default by Samsung, we're just enabling it.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] beppemila:
Hi guys,

are camera and video working with "stock quality" in this ROM? I guess so as this is based on NE2 ROM but I'd need your confirmation.

Also, anybody coming from Quaraqumus here? would yo recommend Ultima over Q?

Thank you!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
QS and Ultima are very different.

Please don't ask which is best on XDA, it's not allowed. Least not of all in another ROM thread.

And yes, the camera is stock.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] pro4ever:
just purchased the s3 as a spare phone gonna install this as first rom . quick question whats the best kernal for this battery saver
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DonHuan:
Boeffla, of course! ;)

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Choristav:
If anyone's interested I made the stock samsung camera where I removed both the focus and the bestphoto (8 consecutive shots) sounds.

Let me know if it shouldn't be posted here.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
No 'arm in that. Don't you just add a value to the CSC feature.xml instead, though?

EDIT:

Apparently, it's:

<CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>true</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>

EDIT 2:

Make an .xml like this /system/csc/others.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<SamsungMobileFeauture>
<FeatureSet>
<CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>TRUE</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>
</FeatureSet>
</SamsungMobileFeauture>

set permission to 644

Reboot. See if that works, without needing to mod files.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Choristav:
For some reason I didn't find that file in my csc folder, so I just did it the hard way.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
Yeah I removed it along with some other crap, but I had forgotten that's where that mod/feature lived :P
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Choristav:
The .xml way is clearly a better implementation since it actually mutes everything and only if the setting is set to ON inside the camera.

Can't really complain about anything else. I personally would like to see a dithered/black background for dark holo apps rather than the default dark grey to light grey.

I haven't had any ram problems, but was the ram issue always present on touchwiz roms? Are they worse on this port than the official roms?

Might you know which parts of the system are responsible for the ram usage? I realize it's the touchwiz framework, but anything in particular?

For example, it seems like SecSettings has a particularly heavy footprint due to all the touchwiz-related stuff in it. Is it even possible to replace it with stock AOSP settings?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
There is no need for dithering on the Holo background any more, because in previous versions it used to be an image, now it's an XML with the necessary information for a gradient. Having a black background is an option, of course, but not something that can be done "on-the-fly" :( It's done in xposed, but that's because it's hacky and intercepts methods as they're run. It's much cleaner to simply replace the xml.

The RAM issues are basically that the system apps are too large. SystemUI (Samsung) Settings, Phone, Contacts, Messaging and Framework (though, framework-res is smaller than 4.3). Settings is about 60MB in size and uses around 85MB in RAM. It's insanely large. This is because it has all the crap for the S5 style stuff in there. There is actually very little you need to add to get that stuff working. Samsung include it and don't use it, wasting space. People running the Note II basically have RAM wasted on loading junk resources they'll never use into RAM.

For Settings it's not possible to use AOSP settings (Though I've tried to restore the list layout). The best I can do is replace all the crap we don't use with 1x1 images
