coming from stock s3 ive spent like 3 hours reading about this, and ive already flashed yank's kernel. im waiting for v13 cause i think thers no point in downloadin v12 as of now. but u guys tell me, will it take long ? if so i ll start downloading v12... another thing, i was wondering how safe yank's kernel OC is... thank you for your hard work guys.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Yank555:
OC is limited to 1.6GHz, which is rather conservative. I've been running it on my two S3's since day 1, no issues, and none reported by users either.

No problems with Yanks OC, I've been on 1.6ghz (max) from day one.

I'd advise you to install v12 now as there is very heavy demand with new releases and you may be waiting a while to download. That way you can start enjoying this great ROM immediately:)

Dear Sir, right now I am on stock rom ELLA. if I flash Ur kernel via pc odin after that my devise status will normal or modified? and which kernel is fit for Ella. pls reply sir, thaks in advence
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Yank555:
As soon as you use a different kernel and or recovery you will lose that, and you will get the exclamation mark on boot if you updated the bootloader to ELLA.

Anyway, what do you expect from seeing 'normal' there, because except for fooling your conscience it won't help you in any way ;)

As soon as you change something on your device, like even running Stock unrooted ELLA if it wasn't updated by OTA (e.g. if you're not from the UK), you're on the wrong anyway as you should not have that version yet (in India in your case), and you could get warrenty denied just because of running that :(

Reminder in EU they cannot deny warranty for rooting / using a custom ROM.

So if THAT is your concern, don't use anything (no ROM, no kernel, no Mod ...) from xda or any other site, and don't root your phone... only then are you really 'clean' for Samsung, the info 'normal' or lack of exclamation mark on boot won't help you much.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] AW079:
Thanks for your suggestions guys.

Update: still no text, but I can report the following:

Checked and my Service Center Number was non present. :confused:

I find this strange as I have not made any changes to it.

Can flashing a ROM change the values on this?

I have since manually added +447782000800, rebooted, removed sim, gave it time, spun it around 360, crossed all my fingers.....still no good.

I can make call, receive text and use internet data, so I know my signal reception is okay.

I have checked my 'access point names' and the rest of my 'message settings' everything is as normal there when compared against another S3 phone settings.

Now I am really :confused:

Dunno what else to try?!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] wooptarik:
yeah, been following that thread for a while now, but still there is too much fuss about this sudden death issue, and yet no known causes ...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] corrsea:
Check that you have the right service centre number.

Its the most obvious culprit.

Mine disappeared the first week I had the phone, still stock and unrooted at that stage.

I put it down at the time to having used the sim toolkit. Can't be sure though as I've never used it since.

So we can install the last bootloader safely? :) Or there's and other disadvantage (apart from the red mark) ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] STELIOSFAN:
Just FYI, I've reverted back to XXALEF bootloader, in seconds via terminal emulator on the phone.... without messing up anything. Then I used triangle away and reset binary :)

I used this method Everything i write hereunder is based on this method 100%

First I downloaded the XXALEF bootloader, unzipped it and copied all three files on the phone's sdcard

Then I opened my terminal emulator, typed the following... END OF STORY

$ su

# dd if=/sdcard/sboot.bin of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1

# dd if=/sdcard/tz.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p2

# dd if=/sdcard/param.bin of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4

[Galaxy S III Android Development] AW079:
i have inputted +44782000800 as Service Centre No.. which is confirmed as being the same as a few others who are also on the three uk network.

I have also compared all my settings with a colleague who also has an s3 and on same network. mine is no different.

I have also reflashed v12 rom and its still the same....receive txt only...still cant send.

The only thing that I can think off is that my service centre number was not initially there after installed sotmax v12 three days ago.

but now that its been manually entered, it should work right?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sotmax:
At the end you ll see that will be the bl ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] wooptarik:
well i guess yeah, since it does make sense.

i'm back on XXALEF as per your advice, and hope no damage has been already done with 4.1.1 OTA bootloader. i guess only time will tell :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] donteo:
Still no V13 :(
[Galaxy S III Android Development] wooptarik:
yeah, impatient here as well, but sure Sotmax won't release anything until fully testing and validating ... great appreciation !!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] donteo:
I want to move away from ELLA bootloader to XXALEF and after clean install V13 :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Revhead:
To fix or not to fix that is the question?

Okay.

I'm officially confused.

If I'm still on V12 with XXELL4.

Do I needto or should I apply the Sudden Death fix or am I still on the older "good" bootloader and therefore not at risk?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] bone069:
Can confirm this works!!! Many thanks dude ;)

Sotmax should put this in OP. Very easy solution!!!

you need to check what bootloader you have installed -> install Android System Info from play store and check under System > Build Info

if it is a new bootloader (4.1.1 and Later) flash Sotmax b/l fix from OP

Hi thanks for the suggestions guys.

After exhausting many options, I have begrudgingly done a full wipe using cwm and reinstalled sotmax v12 with yanks kernal and hdvoice.

..now..a question: My S3 is running slow sometimes..

My Message Stops when i open, accept i click fast on a message .. it stays then.

when i open 4 tasks he is very slow... when i close a app i must wait 4-6sec till it close :(

Whats wrong? Got no bloatware running.. i clean alway my RAM and close all the apps i not use...

(i did wipe dalvic, still the same but my ram is still 100mb in use from the 737mb 0_0 -in applicationmanage)

When v13 comes out -> fresh new clean install i think.. ! :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] donteo:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] enigma1981:
I did a clean install before I installed v12 using Odin with my old H3G 4.0.4 ROM (ALF6) to fix a f**k-up with my partitions, I think that's probably why I've not experienced any problems with my bootloader - I've not installed any updated ROM using anything other than CWM or Mobile Odin so my bootloader is still the original one that shipped with my phone :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] pride_kr:
I was experiencing the same issues...

thats no ram problem....

after flashing a LOT of custom roms, even cleaning cache, dalvik etc, my S3 was really slow...

Thats a good time to megawipe your internal storage. It deletes EVERYTHING inside your internal storage.

After that everything was solved!!!

Dont forget to backup your pics, music etc....

And dont forget to copy your sotmax´s custom rom V13(fingers crossed, kkkkk) to your external SD card...

otherwise you´ll have nothing to flash!!!:laugh:

Hi, I was just wandering if anyone is using the emoji keyboard, installed via the v12 aroma installer option.

The only way I've found is to set the emoji keyboard as default, but once you switch back to the samsung keyboard to enter text, there no way of returning to the emoji keyboard.....ie] there no visible button to switch between the two keyboards :confused:

with the keyboard on screen...when typing. pull down notification bar and there you will see an option to 'choose input method' and thereby allowing one to access the emoji keyboard.
