Hi Somax,

I've been looking for a way of having your TW on a stock rom. I found a method that states that all i need to do is place the .apk inside a zip file with a /system/app structure and flash it through CWM. Would that be all?? Also, could I do the same with the SecPhone.apk to enable call recording? Sorry if this kind of question is not meant to be here... It's just for a friend that doen't want to leave stock roms but wants to enjoy some of your rom great features.

I installed last night v19 and it's great battery life, i lost only 1% in 6 hours in standby. WOW

Great battery life i ever had, thank you sotmax.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] redcom7:
I just can not believe you guys with these stats of lost battery ....

i never manage to lose under 3% per hour and i have try allmost every rom ....

except if you have everything closed data,wifi,notification etc

in that case there is no reason to have a smartphone ...

wifi on data off, only gsm signal, removed all samsung crap left only polaris and dropbox.

using yank kernel with default settings, i installed only 60 apps., screen light to 30%, vibration to 75%, it was on silent last night. this is the first time i ever get this kind of battery life, i was just like you with 1%-2% per hour, and using the stock modem.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] corrsea:
Actually with that setup you should be getting down to a standby drain of somewhere between 0.1% and 0.5% per hour.

Have you used BBS to check for wakelocks?

Go to settings and unsync picassa albums (untick it) in account sync (google) then application manager third tab find gallery and clear data and cache. This should do the trick.

Im sure you could find a guide on xda too but I used Google instead:

Sotmax, have you heard jkay is leaving his mod? You are a great developer. Can you try to speak with him and maybe you coninue the mod? Sotmax mod?..... your rom without jkays settings is like a cake without cherry :p

+1 please:)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sotmax:
I will my friends.

I think i know what happens exactly but i m not sure.

Agree that s3 is half without his mod and is one of the greatest devs ever and much respectfull.

I will try to have a conversation with him but at the end the final decision is pesonal and i cannot push someone to do something that dont want of course....

[Galaxy S III Android Development] soundping:
Here's a easy quick tip to add more speed.

Goto Settings.

Developer options / Turn off Window animation scale / Turn off Transition animation scale / Turn off Animator duration scale.

In Lock screen / Lock screen options / Turn off Ripple effect.

Now your S3 will move a lot faster.

I know its off topic but since it is surely like a family in here thought I would get your recommendations before I place my order today. :(

By the way I don't think upgrade from S3 to S4 will worth, the only thing I like it's the doubled ram, but there's the LTE S3 that have it too.

Hi

I accidentally hit the clear init.d folder in boeffla app. Is there anything meant to be in here from rom installation or is it usually empty until tweaks other than those in the rom are applied?

Drew071
[Galaxy S III Android Development] orangerot.:
Usually it's empty ;) Only if you selected this keep phone and contacts (and launcher?!) in memory during installation there is one script called 00sotmax in it.. You can remake it very simple..

Create text document called 00sotmax on your pc. OPen it with notepadd ++ and write:

#!/system/bin/sh

renice -20 $(pidof com.sec.android.app.launcher)

Now save it and remove the .txt extension.. Now paste it into /system/etc/init.d and give it the right permissions(-rwxrwxrwx) and reboot..

If you didn't tick this option during installation there's no need to perform those steps ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] drew071:
Thanks for the reply. I don't use keep in memory so I it's ok being empty. Cheers again

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lagggi:
The S4 price here in Greece is aprox 730€...

I agree with you.

I had a hands on with S4 recently and I noticed that S4 screen is 30% brighter than than S3s...

Smoothness is similar with my Sotmaxed V19 S3 [MENTION=1247388]1.6[/MENTION]ghz.

S4 looks much lighter and better in handgrip possibly due to its slimmer design...

No optical difference in size between 5" and 4,8" screen...

In other words it looks like a smaller smartphone and it has a better screen...

Thats all...

My conclusion:

Too much money for minor improovements...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Cieptak:
Sotmax could you contact with Yank because in hes kernel option I can't see your settings did you know why?

Wysyłane z mojego GT-I9300 za pomocą Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Yank555:
Because those setting I still had in Aroma are really outdated and not inline with all the new stuff in the kernel ;)

So rather than keep the outdated, and not having the latest Sotmax config at hand, I removed that profile.

If you really want to use the kernel to it's potential, try out various settings and find those that suit you best.

You can take my settings as a starting point, I think it should not be that bad a start. You might really be surprised !

As snapdragon is very good and devs know it expect that at least for the beggining devs will know it better ;)

But from the other hand octa with little big working at 1.6 is very promising if you over it a little lets say @ 1,8 ;)

I m suggesting octa....

Of course my friend. I m just waiting for an EU fw ;)

Now that we have an s3 to play rpm will continue...especially the moment that not everyone will upgrade to s4.

S3 have many days of history remaining :D

Agree that is not worthing an upgrade if you re on s3 or there is not much money in your pocket ;)

If money is not the problem upgrade is fine(after all if money is not a problem you can keep them both :p )

indeed too many but price has already drop a little (670 ;) )

This is yank's decision my friend.

He said that he dont want to include aroma configuration inside my aroma anymore and now he dont want my settings profile in his configuration.

Personal build,personal taste.

Cannot force anyone to do that. Its up on the dev for that........
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edinak:
True i have pleasure to give one on my hand and is have small lag on open browser and some open menu`s programs.Just phone is laggy in start on is take 1.03GB of RAM crappy think :) Camera is great with BSI sensor but i not have some biggest change of s3 . My s3 open all faster but i m not with stock :) On the whole phone is good but not have some big different`s with S3. I wait to come some better phone to buy it :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sotmax:
You need also to give 0755 permission my friend with a root explorer.

With fx is easy. Keep preesing on file chosose details and change them ;)

Also as sammy seems to keep contacts without fixing the opening lag i will charge it a litle more almost as it was before to avoid lag if someone dont use jkay ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Yank555:
I just don't want my work on xda, so since the ROM is on xda ... :( At first I refused every kind of inclusion on xda available ROMs, then I agreed on 'partial'...

Sad situation, agreed, but I'm still not friendly with xda, even if I'm still around and I haven't changed my mind either on this.

If you pass me some current setup, I'll add it, the one I had was really pretty outdated, didn't use most of the best stuff that has been added to the kernel, so kind of pointless to keep it inside like that while updating the kernel, then using an old kernel was just as good :(

[Galaxy S III Android Development] mcwurth:
The resize issue can be resolved by the settings in xposed app manager (per app dpi settings) the contacts crashing can be fixed by flashing the file given few post above this (for 240dpi that is) or take the file from one of the OP's (dpi fix flashable) files.

Running siyah kernel now but not sure wich kernel i like best yet.

I have played around with both exynos and snapdragon versions. Did some serious beatings too but didn't have any considerable lag. Maybe it's just me coz I want the device?

Here in Maldives we don't have lte yet so doesn't really matter. I read a lot of reviews and watched tons of videos. All those people who say that it's not worth an upgrade should be hanged hahaha. It surely is a worth upgrade.

Yeah its lighter and tend to fall out of my tiny hands too much and it's not too much money.

I have gone for the octa as you recommended. Hope you buy the same device someday coz your rom is the only thing I want on it but will mess around for sure until you get there....

Yeah its really not an upgrade if you are on the sotmax rom on s3 but compared to stock s4 is a good upgrade I guess.

I don't have much money but I just met a very stupid guy who paid me 450usd for my s3 lol he have seen a lot of s3 but nothing like mine and he is desperate to get this one coz it's much smoother faster and not even a single scratch on either screen or back. All thanks to you sotmax. I have loved my device with your rom and I have taken great care of it. Your rom made me an otherwise impossible 450. Hahaha. I spent 717 with an additional 16gig card since memory is an issue on the device.

Finally I wanna apologize to everyone for going off topic and talking nonsense here. It's just that this has been the only thread I have been on the last couple of months and have been on this rom since v8 which makes me feel like part of the family I could get some ideas from. This has been the best thread ever. Thank you everyone who made this thread such a wonderful place to spend all my spare time. Especially sotmax, you are one of a kind. Keep up the good work. I'll still be here coz I can't leave this thread that easily even if I will not have an s3 starting next Friday.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] tarzan11:
Hey..your not talking nonsense...your words are just true..i also agree with what you say about this thread...sorry i didnt comment about which s4 you are choosing..tbh i havnt checked their specs..im trying to avoid it because i want it..i havnt even tried it yet...im sure one day sotmax will be working his rom magic on it...see you soon mate..keep in touch on hear and tell us how your s4 is;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sotmax:
No off topic restrictions here my friend.

Apart from that if there is anything i can help also with the s4 i will glag to do it ;)

) ) ) over the air on GS3 ( ( (
[Galaxy S III Android Development] AladdinZ:
The specs are all same, except for the Snapdragon is clocked at 1.9 and Octa version is at 1.6 and octa version does not have LTE but I dug up a little and it should be there, maybe sammy blocked it for now. I tried both and both work the same and you could not tell the difference. Octa version comes with 8gigs user memory and Snapdragon comes with 9 gigs.

When sotmax comes to S4.... That would be one hell of a day I guess. Im sure then it would be the best ROM for S4 as well.

Thank you my friend, I will surely ask if I ever need any help. For the time being I have only one favor, if you go for S4 anytime soon go for Exynos hahah :p
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kami_karakaj:
question..

sotmax friend . .

Is it possible that in the next software release appears something like a dual video as the S4 means that can be used both cameras at the same time

?

:cowboy:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Nick Fury:
I like the idea friend but i think the only way this could be done is if the next release was based on 4.2.1.

I say this because as we all know there are a fair few s4 ports but they only work on 4.2.1 so far.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] skim0322:
I read through the thread but couldn't find a solution. Does anyone know how, xposed, I can set up the keyboard in horizontal view to be resized correctly?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sotmax:
You mean in 240dpi?

The including one working fine i think in landscape..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sotmax:
My friends.

Jkay left the mod and thats it.

No response no problem.

Its up to anyone to decide what to do thats for sure.

Great mod , great dev.

No more jkay in next releases.

I will try to mod the framework a little(not changing anything) just to bring compatibility for next releases and only that.

Notice that i m not promise anything nor for other devices. I will just try to implement the same framework to upcoming releases and only if jkay gives me the green light.

If not i will try to mod the framework a little to make a mod similar to jkay but yet thats not a promise.

Jkay mod have a lot of work behind it and requires years of development for the final result.No time to try from scratch unless a brilliant idea from the clouds.

If i find that need a lot of time i will proceed to 4.2.2 modded framework.

Again that;s not a promise but a single idea to keep all you happy with your devices...
