Happens anytime there is a change to your system. It shouldn't happen every reboot though if y oy haven't made any changes.. I just rebooted to check and it booted up without "android upgrading". Also on v8.1.2 patch.

Re: [ROM][10th Jan] - UltimaROM v8.1.1 Ifrit - [XXELLA][AROMA][1226MB|743MB|426MB]

I've got everything to work fine now. This Rom is very fast, stable and beautiful. It is the perfect choice. I only have one more request. This mms.apk rocks! Way better than stock, go and any other market options. But could I used to like the blue text color for incoming sms and white for sent sms. It make things easier to read. Is there any way to implement this option? Thanks!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kishanthj:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:

Try clearing the data for the app in the Applications Settings?

Is it possible to add something like that?

Sounds like you deleted your only MMS apk. I would suggest reflashing v.8.1.1 and update with patch. Choose whichever you would like on install.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] crazix:
Media scanner ROOT and Media scanner did work but still was facing issues where my gallery was not populating any type of media files. So I guess something happened within the phone. So reinstalled everything. And the phone is at it top performance be it speed or battery wise.

Hey satfan. I really appreciate that you are trying to help but if you would have gone through my posts then your answer would have been little more polite. I never complained about the ROM. I always make sure that I install and test all versions Kryten come up with. The issue seemed to be with my phone and something might have happened and my phone started running at 100% CPU speed. It was a mere coincidence that it started after updating v8.1.2. And right now after flashing my phone with all the patches (v8.1.1 and v8.1.2) after v8.1 its the same great or I would say the best performing ROM and battery has improved a lot. And I did not even try installing Media scanner ROOT and Media scanner. :)

Hence chill. Giving a helping hand can be rewarding for both you and the person who receives your generosity. ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
Both that one and the one in the patch include this. You just need to type about 100 characters and then it shows.

-.-

It's in the patch.

I changed some of the text colours, because there was far too much blue that didn't make sense. For instance, the pop up dialogs? They're white they're never blue. The character counter was dark grey and you could barely see it, it's now a much lighter and visible grey. I also changed the divider between the text box and the messages, as this was white and was totally out of place, it's now darker and more in-place. Finally, when starting a new message and you start to type someones name? Their name is blue, the "mobile" or "Home" text is blue, but the phone number is white. Makes more sense and is easier to see.

I'm also going to change the colours of the text messages for the next release, so that the sender is white and your messages are blue, to it's easier to see who said what. One of the older releases we used was like this and it's much better.

I think I know the answer to this. A while ago I had some major lag issues and some serious drain and overheating. It was the mediascanner trying to scan my nandroid backup. You should change the backup format to .tar instead of the million blob files, or try putting a .nomedia file in there. For me the clue was connecting to my PC and checking the size of the SD card, which was some hundred thousand TERABYTES... lol, that was big giveaway.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
Quick pic, I can't be bothered to take a picture of the names cause ill only have to blur the numbers out and such. But that's some of the changes.

Also, forgot, but the arrow for sending will be made blue as well.

EDIT:

Also, I hunted high and low but could NOT find the part that makes that name black. There are only a handful of reference sot the word "black" or "#ff000000" in the files and none of them were relating to that part :(

Hello, one little question.

I installed the stock mms/sms app because I was not aware of the 8.1.2 patch. So is there a way to get the aosp app without reinstalling everything? I can use the ota app to get the MMS aroma package and flash only this?

Here are some things i suggest you do:

1. Download another stock rom (perhaps it was a corrupt download?) And flash again via odin, u can go to download mode so that is a good sign.

2. Idk if u can go to recovery mode but if u can, then reflash 8.1.1 again.

Idk any other methods to reset the count, only triangle away. :)

You can try any unbrick tutorial at xda. There are a lot of ways to do that. Give a try.

Alternatively try taking battery out and do NOT put it back in. Take SD card out. Plug phone into computer and try booting on download mode.

On galaxy S 2 this used to work. Give a shot before doing anything

EDIT: I tried that, Galaxy s3 dos not boot without battery =(

But try doing that plugging the battery again after removing the sd

Hello Kryten. I've been using Ultima ROM for like 3 months and it became my favorite. As a daily user and a fan of your work I also would like to make a suggestion/request for the new version you are building.

You could replace some stock sounds like in the new foxhound 1.8 (which i also like and support).

As your rom is named after Final Fantasy stuff, it would be very cool having some sounds from the game like for example the scrolling sound from FF7 menu or when you use an item like a potion.

If you liked the idea, I can help you on finding the sounds.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DonHuan:

Would you be able to find the string for the grey background and maybe change that one?? Either blue or brighter grey..?

And a question: If receiving a message and pulling down status bar to open message (by clicking 'read' from the notifications), the message just doesn't open. How is this coming on your other devices?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] OmarFar:
Many many thanks to Kryten for this looking gorgeous ui, it's great to have this rom and i really don't want to leave it but there are a few irritating bugs:

1) When i call to someone from foreign country, my number shown as another gsm number seems like sth. transforms my number.

2) Lots of time, phone stucks into power saving mode. Even if try to disable it brightness and cpu clock speed behaves like in power save mode. And it becomes to impossible to screen content while outside because of the amoled screen.

3) Rarely status bar freezes and requires to reboot.

As i said i really enjoy to have this rom but those bugs depressing me.

I'd like to delete the themed YouTube app that came with ultima and get the official one on the play store. How can I do this?

The reason being, the YouTube player from ultima has problems with apps that use the built in YouTube api (or whatever it's called).

Re: [ROM][10th Jan] - UltimaROM v8.1.1 Ifrit - [XXELLA][AROMA][1226MB|743MB|426MB]

So the modded YouTube in AROMA definitely has a problem with playing YouTube videos within an app (using the YouTube api). Examples of this can be found in apps like Reddit News and Reddit Sync (were videos are played directly within an app).

The YouTube app in the play store works. So the problem must be with the modded version.

It's a shame because I really liked the themed app, hate the default YouTube look.

You don't understand what I meant. Reddit News has a new feature that plays the YouTube video within the app. Not going directly to YouTube.

In order to do this you have to click on a video thumbnail, not the submission. It should play but there is an error.

After using the official YouTube, it works.

The messaging... you didn't read the patch notes or the installer at all. You were only to install the AOSP MMS part of the patch if you had the AOSP MMS.

2 problems here. I can't add the second city to digital double clocks and when I connect my headphones I see 2 headphone icons which is a little irritating.

Thanks for solutions if you have
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MattBooth:
The two headphones icons are down to the Headphones Shortcut apk which you picked in the AROMA installer. You can delete "ContextAwareManager.apk" and "HeadphonesShortcuts.apk" form "/system/app/" to stop that.

The clock thing I can't confirm as I don't have those widgets installed, but I don't remember them causing an issue before. Try clearing the data for the clock or the widgets.
