Could I flash it directly without losing any user app & settings ?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] txr33:
Even though wipes are recommended it is not always necessary so you can if you want flash it without wipe so you keep all your user apps and settings, I have flashed numerous times without wipe and so have other people and haven't had issues but I recommend making a backup because if you do encounter some strange problems no one else is having then you may need to full wipe to solve the issue. So it is recommended to full wipe but it's completely up to the user if they want to or not.

Hi Txr33,

I want to try out your new V8 ROM but I'm a big fan of the Motomoto theme and also the Jkay framework, are these 2 compatible now?

Also if I just flash V8 over my current Ripper ROM with out a wipe then will I lose theme, jkay etc oe will everything stay exactly the same but just have ROM updated?

Cheers mate
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] txr33:
Yes Jkay mod and MotoMoto theme are compatible. In Update Me in the Jkay mod menu you will find the latest Jkay mod and its compatible themes including MotoMoto.

The themes in the theme menu are for the base rom and are not compatible with Jkay mod except for the Jb Domination black mode zip.

Flashing V8 will replace any extras, themes etc you currently have so you will need to reflash the extra mods and themes you want so Jkay, theme and any others

Question

Hi,

Thanks for your work. I am using the rom for the first time. I am a JKay mod follower (Since the GS2) and own his Deluxe Settings. Normally i prefer stock odexed rom with my own tweaks. Since JKay does not support directly our I9305, I came here because of that. Now I am trying to setup the JKay Lockscreen, but no matter which i choose, it is not working, i cannot lock the screen!!! The stock PIN security is working though. Do you have any idea?

Thanks.

Hi txr33,

V8 is a must have for I9305.

Do you plan to update Jkay Mod : Transparent Dropdown and Ripper Rom Battery with 14.7.3 framework ?. After flashing both mods, it appears that systemui is remaining in 14.6 version (Cf. Jkay settings).

Download the transparent mod for jkay again and flash it. I realised this morning I forgot to update the link for that one but it should be all good now. I just downloaded and checked to make sure

Yeah for VR Themes the TWRP recovery will not flash them but I recommend using the link from wacas for philz touch recovery for i9305. I am using that at the moment and am quite happy with it so far. If you want to try it just make sure you get the 9305 version not the 9300 one

Ok. I flashed CWM and the Rom again and now all that i have test (not much so far, no time) is working as it should. I guess TWRP was not the problem, it was me not wiping correctly. Thanks all who has tried to help.

Yeah I need to get a hold of a better inverted gmail just haven't had a chance yet.

I will try add it today

I haven't been able to get those issues happening to me yet. After each boot of the phone at the start it is possible to have little jittery bits with gallery, contacts and messages because the phone is loading all the data it needs and scanning but once it has loaded up it should be fine.

When you do a factory reset/full wipe it doesn't touch your internal sd, it wipes the data partition where all the installed apps, contacts messages, settings etc are stored. I have tried twrp, philz and cwm 5.5 and to me all wipe ok except from memory 5.5 seems to keep wifi connection where as it seems that twrp and philz clear that info, I could be wrong cause that is from memory. There is another cwm touch recovery available in the development section but I have never tried it because from comments it seemed not everything was working properly

I don't think I have ever updated my boot loader on a samsung phone

For those who want to remove the lockscreen and launcher rotation there is a zip in Update Me under mods to disable the rotation.

Edit: Changed the Gmail apk in the inverted apps zip in Update Me mods, this one is better I think. Also added the splanner and email to add/remove apks.

Edit: Also added the option to remove the rotation for the tw launcher only., because if you flash Jkay mod it will remove the lockscreen rotation but you will keep the TW Launcher rotation so flash this zip to remove the launchers rotation, as the other zip is not compatitble with Jkay Mod
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] tangcla:

I just downloaded and flashed it to make sure it is ok and it worked just fine. Did you have Jkay mod installed. If so then that would be why. I have added a warning to that mod not to flash with jkay and have added the remove rotation just for the sec launcher.

Sorry I totally forgot about Jkay mod when I put the zip up

I haven't had anything funny happen yet but I will keep playing around. I was running the phone pretty hard yesterday with games, music, videos and internet and didn't have any issues. What kernel are you using. I am currently using the latest Perseus kernel now 31.2 which is up in Update Me. I did get some issues from using Perseus 30.1 on V7.1, which caused some bootloops and some strange FC's but that seemed to be kernel related as I haven't had it happen again after changing back to 29.1 or stock and so far now on 31.2.

yeah, since v7 i've had a funny contacts issue where if you go into the contacts app and open up a contact, then press the back button to go back to the contacts list, it will show you the contacts list for a second, then reload it (the screen flashes black) again a second time. Not a deal breaker, but looks pretty lame. I do have the "join 5+ contacts, no phone icon in contacts list" mod flashed, not sure if that affects it.

JKay 14.7.4 has been released - here is the i9305 version with talexop's SecSettings.apk from 14.7.3. All seems to work nicely.

Hello, txr33 please see the new Jkay mod for ll5. I have modded the systemui. Apk and sec settings.apk it works fine with me. I have not made 14.7.4 yet as it has minor changes only regarding flashlight. Also I have fixed a bug that shows an option aosk lock screen inside lock screen settings which does not work.

You can get the Jkay status bar themes here http://www.mediafire.com/jkaythemes You will need to change the mounting partition in the updater script before flashing any of them

Having a look at the 14.7.4 just looks like there is no changes only thing is that it is now made for the latest 9300 base

I haven't had my contacts list be jittery at any time yet and I have used both the add more than 5 contacts mod and standard 5 contact join limit

The lights can be controlled within the kernel but I do not think this is a bug as this is how the I9305 works even with stock rom

I will see if I can make it work with auto rotation not sure just yet if it will though. I assumed it would work that way but obviously it doesn't which sucks

Flashing V8 won't change the boot loader, you would have to flash the stock tar rom to get that. Triangle Away already works to reset the flash counter but at every boot it puts the flash counter back at 1.

yeah i looked there, tried a few downloads, but none of them worked. maybe they haven't been update for the latest JKay framework or something. Either way, Domination theme is awesome, I really like it.

actually you don't.. i flashed 3 or 4 of them in the end (to no avail except for a battery mod), they all mount /system or /data, not the partition, so there was no update required.

ah fair enough. i thought JKay wouldn't release a new minor version without actual functional changes though.. he's never released a minor version because of a new base compatibility before. weird

really.. maybe i need a full wipe. maybe i'll try a contacts app data refresh. [edit] yep, looks like a data wipe on the contacts storage app did the trick [/edit]

reboot recovery NOT phone

back into cwm

reinstall rom

back into cwm

fix permissions

reboot into rom

this covers abt absolutely everything, if its still not working after this, dont add the account that ur contacts come from, gmail for example.

see if the stock app with no contacts in it still FC, if not, then maybe a contact has become corrupt.

Hey guys! I bought my i9305 a few days ago. Going from a gNote to this is the best thing i have done.

I am very new to this side of XDA and ive tried to research to find the best rom with good battery life and im quite sure its this rom. I work alot of hours compared to what i did when i recently got my gNote, so i dont have a lot of time to research as i did before and not so much time to experiment with diffrent roms.

So i just want to know how you guys have experienced this rom and what kernel do you use with this rom.

I really hope you guys to ignore this.

Thanks in advance :)

Edit: Lol, yes stigdu, i meant "I really hope you guys wont ignore this"
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] stigdu:
Well I shall choose not to ignore you, as I suspect that wasn't the word you wanted to use.

I've had better battery from Ripper Rom (is the developer an Aussie?) than I had with Pandoriam 5.7, that's for sure. my experience with it is 99% positive. When I first flashed the 4.2 camera and gallery, they worked fine alongside the standard camera and gallery but now I have a gallery that doesn't work. Still, all is well, as it was the crap one which I lost.

The Kernel I use is Pegasus 31.2 (I think). I did want to go with Kernel Sanders to give the ROM a more 'chickeny' flavour, but that one hasn't been written yet.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Visca Barca:
Thanks for not listening to me :P

Thanks for sharing. So u are using this ROM at the moment? What does Pegasus 31.2 offer that the original stock with this rom doesnt?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Obagleyfreer:
The Persues kernel offers much more than the stock kernel. Lots of sound enhancements, over clocking and under volting, MUCH better greys and blacks.

I have the motomoto them on my device and in a lot of apps it puts a blue circle in the background fading out to black, the stock kernel makes this look terrible, the contrast is shocking and instead of a nice gradient it appears as rings of different shades. The Perseus kernel handles this gradient awesomely, it looks a million times better!

There's also many more tweaks you can apply.

Long story short Perseus in my opinion is much better than stock.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Visca Barca:
Beautiful! Thanks alot man, i appreciate this a lot. So this rom + perseus kernel is the best combo.

What kind of mods do u use? I'm just curious.

Any other things i should know? Do u experience any crashes where you have to restart your phone?
