Drew good to hear all is well ,we appreciate your work. Safe travels and don't worry about us. ;) We all enjoy your ROMS so thank you again.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] yamahakid:
that is what is keeping me on Drew's 2 roms, ive always been a CM user since my captivate, but i found this and M7 the first day i got my s3 and ive been hooked. i love paying for things with wallet and looking at peoples reactions.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nellycruzz:
I see a lot of ppl saying this rom is so stable now. Anyone care to shed some light on kernel used and settings configuration.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] crazililazn:
My phone randomly says the SIM card is removed and requires me to reboot. It has happened twice and I was wondering if its a known issue with this ROM or the S3.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] VirusZer0:
Not an issue with either, I would recommend cleaning the sim with a Q-tip and a tiny dab of rubbing alcohol, allow to dry THOROUGHLY for about 5-10 mins. Then reinsert. Should be golden then!

Let us know!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Deoxlar:

I was also checking it out again - I've been on slim rom for a while... enjoying 2 days of battery... I've forgotten about android system burning up the battery and warming your pocket - is that something resolved by another kernel?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Jammol:
The best keyboard to use with this ROM for me is the 4.2 keyboard.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eatonjb:
it just does not seem as accurate as the Swype beta.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Shep FC3:
Agreed. The stock keyboard was very laggy. Just updated to the 4.2 keyboard in the app store and all is well

---------- Post added at 04:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:34 PM ----------

Went back to the stock kernel today. The stock battery life was bad but the ktoonz one was worse for me. I would average 6-8 hours of moderate use. Stock I could at least get 10-12
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] louvass:

I flashed back to a rooted stock, odin flashed CWM, root checker says I have root. I flashed Serenity and now root is gone. This is the first time this has happened that I lose root when I flash. Any suggestions would be appreciated

Recommended under volting frequencies with the 11/13 ktoonz? Thank u
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CYRAXDroid:
How is the battery life with ktoonz
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nellycruzz:
Well not to bad so far i suppose. I need to do a full cycle or two first. I just installed google wallet and it works and i wanna ensure the under volting is set correctly.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CYRAXDroid:
Nice I kind of wanted to try that Google wallet
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] yamahakid:
Wallet works great, that's the main reason I use this rom. I can't get it to work on any others
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CYRAXDroid:
Did you have to go with that google fix? I seen that thread floating around here or did you go through update me for the JB google wallet fix
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] yamahakid:
I used the fix in update me then down loaded wallet right from the play store. That thread confused the crap out of me.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CYRAXDroid:
Yeah same here I may have to try it out
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] exodus454:
I just flashed serenity figuring I'd try out a touchwiz ROM, since my phone has had AOKP on it from the beginning. I was running task650's AOKP with KT747, and getting usually 2.5 (sometimes 3) hours of screen on time. After flashing serenity, I immediately got 4 hours of screen on with 10% battery left. Still running KT747 kernel. The extra hour and a half or so of battery life is a pretty compelling reason to stay with touchwiz.

Anyone getting better battery life with a different kernel? I tried leankernel while running AOKP and wasn't very impressed with it. Too "lean" imo, needs more hotplugging governors.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CYRAXDroid:
Well at first for me I was getting battery drain but after a cycle or 2 its been better. A page back another memeber posted a link for a keyboard I flashed it and its been no leag in text.. kernel I flashed jb tw from KT and set for ktoonz but read the info in the kts kernel thread about editing a file so you won't get battery drain
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] exodus454:
Just edited the file. My phone was off the charger for 40 mins, 2 mins screen on and got down to 89%. Charging it back up and hopefully that fixed it.

Wasn't there another file to edit to stop some daemon from running too?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] viny2cool:
I am just running this rom as it came...and its been working well...I did tried all the other JB TW roms and this one beats all of them..I got issues in every rom....I hope Drew continues the development of this rom..
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Unhived__Mind:
Pretty sure soneone said to use the kernel that came with the rom to avoid any battery drain..I tried both kernels and the "stock" kernel is faster(tests) and better battery life, at least for my phone. On ktoons I had horrid battery..
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CYRAXDroid:
Was there a link to download the stock kernel?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kangi26:
Take a look in the Update Me app

Edit**** Otherwise you can do a dirty install to get the stock kernel back
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] paleman27:
Stock Kernel. No OC'd...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] House M.D.:
Use search please!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kangi26:
I already answered his question, so I dont really understand the need to add that response
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CYRAXDroid:
That's all I ever you say if i post anything..jeez..

And thanks kangi26 for the reply
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] paleman27:
You sure? Some ROMs do not modify the actual kernel when they step in; they just leave whatever it's in there... I remember this guy on SGS2 forum came up with a “kernel cleaner" to flash before you flash a new kernel. I think he's the one who told me that.

Remember you are suppose to flash this ROM coming from stock or another stock kernel version...so that might tell us that the kernel was not touched. So if you flash this ROM coming from Kang, or CM9 you might run into some trouble.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CYRAXDroid:
That's pretty cool
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kangi26:
Yeah, I'm sure. From the OP - "Stock T-Mobile Kernel (Updated Ramdisk Ramdisk Link Here, SGH-T999 ICS/JB Kernel Here)

Tons More!"

I am "pretty sure" most of the devs include the kernel with the ROM's. Mainly due to flashing between, say ICS and JB. I dont think the kernels are supported cross releases, so if a dev didnt include a kernel if you were flashing from ICS to JB, you would run into issues
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] paleman27:
Sounds right.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] crazililazn:
Updating my post, cleaning the SIM with a q-tip dabbed with rubbing alcohol did not work. I still got that same message asking me to insert a valid SIM but this time I was still streaming music when I got that message...

So its definitely not a SIM card or data issue. Anyone have an idea what's up? :/
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RiPpeR_dUdE:
First question, is this problem only occurring with this ROM? If not, I'd suggest ensuring the SIM is fitting properly in the SIM slot; sounds like it may not have a good connection and possibly not making a good connection with the contacts.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] crazililazn:
This is the only custom ROM I have flashed on this phone. I was only on stock LH9 for like a day but it never happened on stock.

Also, I don't think it has to do with SIM issues because I still have a data connection when this message comes up. To me it seems like a software problem.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] shoestar:
Just an FYI, if you want to try a newer version of Serenity, then you can flash the T-Mobile version. Working so far for me. :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CYRAXDroid:
I was on frosty which was a t mobile I had a little issues but eh..
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] softkey:
If you miss 2 calls the phone goes into a loop and you can't use it. Only way to bring it back is to re-flash it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RiPpeR_dUdE:
Wow! You're right, just tested this and phone is now in a boot loop. Nice find. Guess I'm back to 1.1.

EDIT: I cleared dalvik/cache and the boot loop has been resolved, definitely a problem though, but at least saves you from having to re-flash.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] paleman27:
$10??? you call that a donation? Jeez...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Wickidmasshole:
Im on the lite version and i just tried the 2 missed calls and i didn't go into a loop.... Also the whatever you did for data speed tweaks worked!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pativets:
Even $1 is a donation, it all counts, so don't make those comments about them.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] allenjthomsen:
I havent had that problem at all since flashing 1.2 ive missed multiple calls and still running strong try wiping system under mounts and storage
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RiPpeR_dUdE:
I initially didn't have the problem either, the key for me was to actually let the call go to voicemail..... after the first call, got a message displayed on the screen about the pin being incorrect even though I can access my voicemail fine, seems not being able to access voicemail (for whatever reason) may be the culprit.

Just re-tested and if I cancel the call before voicemail answers don't have the issue.... but if I allow voicemail to answer, phone reboots.

EDIT: I was wrong in my steps of how to repro... If I allow the call to go to voicemail no problem.... its actually when the caller ends the call prior and I can now repro with just a single call.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] paleman27:
That was very snobbish of me, I'm sorry if offended anyone here. But then again, you helped me, perhaps my donations were a little over the top. Now you are up to 3 thanks.

You guys put out good work here, I'm glad is not about money but innovation.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] FrankJL_:
Yes. 5 bucks per rom ive used (1.1-1.2). What is the problem with that?

Am i suppose to donate every day or something?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drewgaren:
Reply To You Guy's

Update: I will add a 15 Toggle Mod and Build Fix that will include a my original reworked siii framework and systemui from my original 1.2 release before I was going to release the LJ3 version. This should fix up some issues you guys are having with the percentage and give you back your 15 toggle mod as well.

Multiview: Since I am using the Gnote II's framework and SysUI in this build I redid the Multiview zips to include the Gnote II's Multiview instead of my modded version that I had made. This version is still a work in process. If you are having a problem flashing it, extract it and use root browser or root explorer to move the files to their proper location and set the permission as rw-r-r. This is still a work in process and does not fully function as it will cause the phone to crash due to issues with height restraints, the wrong keyboard (as the gnote ii keyboard does not work on the siii) and carousel.

Full Wipe? For best results I recommend a full wipe on this rom as many things have been changed since 1.1 and it may be a conflict it you do not do a Full wipe.

Prompt of Just Once or Phone: Yes this should say Just Once or Always and if you click Phone it act's as Just Once and not Always. However if you click Just Once it will Act as Always and Remember your choice. I am working on fixing this currently by renaming it. It is a result of the Gnote II framework-res.apk and is being worked on. However it does not affect the roms function if you remember what the difference is and you can always set the default app in applications or forget the default app.

Unfortunately, the process, %1$s has stopped - If you are getting this message you probably didn't install the rom properly and should do a clean install using clockwork recovery. However these messages are due to the Gnote II's framework and SystemUI. If you are running a specific program and this message pops up it is most likely due to the size (height and width) of the application and you can attempt to switch the application with the serenity 1.1 version of the app or a s iii version to fix. However through testing everything has been resolved I recommend a clean install using clockwork recovery.

Wifi Tether - Does work if you have an AT&T plan.

I read about a keyboard lag and battery drain from one use - the keyboard may have a little lag but if you turn you animations to .5x there is no lag. also the thermal settings start at the max cpu voltage for the cpu and then brings the cpu down way down and records the stages. the battery will be better after 1 days of use. if your phone is hot is hot at first it is probably because it's at the max cpu voltage and then brings it down. wait a day and its fine.

Serenity 1.1 theme was made by me and it's in the UpdateMe App called DGGreyAOSPTheme

UpdateMe is not My App I Can't Help It If It Crashes

And do not argue about donation because I do not have a job anything coming my way helps. So thank you to all of those who have donated.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Ghstudent:
Lol return your calls! Jk. Sounds like something is wrong with the phone's apk. That renders it to whenever it is supposed to be showing two missed call notifications to go ape **** and crash the framework.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jmacdonald19:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] geiswiz:
Just a question about mobile network data on this ROM. I noticed that under Mobile network type in About Device -> Status it's showing UMTS:3. On the ATT stock ICS ROM I was using before it said HSPDA. I don't have LTE in my area and my data speeds seem to be the same, but I was just curious why it is showing UMTS.

Thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] wing851:
I loaded this Rom yesterday and confirmed it's bad on battery. I had just over 9 hours on mine with 3h22m CPU time.

Any kernels for this Rom that can optimize battery life or things you can do on this Rom?

I saw Power Saving option so I will try.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CYRAXDroid:
Well you can try KT kernels and its the jb tw version and what Im using is the KT conservite now in KT kernel thread it does tell you have to edit a file which is easy and ever since then its been holding up strong ... now I have gave a day or so to notice the changes but I have happy with it

I had this same problem,even to the point where my phone was draining faster then it could charge... so I gave up flashed aocp but I missed the TW features to much...so reflashed this and battery life is amazing... not sure why...So I would suggest.. flash again until the battery life is good:D
