I perform a clean install by formatting system, wiping data, cache, and dalvik.

I am using Clean Rom Lite. I remove the following files from the zipped package with winrar:

AccuweatherWidget.apk

AnalogClockSimple.apk

AnalogClockUnique.apk

ChromeBookmarksSyncAdapter.apk

DeepSea.apk

DigitalClock.apk

DigitalClock21.apk

I'm using Imoseyon's Lean Kernel 1.8 with SetCPU set at 384/1620 and interactiveX governor.

I allow google play store to auto install all my apps.

I only restore data to k-9 email, GoLauncher, messages (SMS & MMS), Mr Number, PalmaryWeatherPro, Pandora, Poweramp, RootExplorer, Slacker Radio, Tapatalk, ProfitBandit, Beautiful widgets, Camera Zoom FX, CatchNotes, and GasBuddy.

I don't let FB sync my contacts.

I turn off GPS when I am not in need of it and when I do turn it on, I only use the standalone services.

I always have wifi and data turned on (it varies from day to day what type of data I am using and how much).

Brightness is usually set to auto.

With this setup, I consistently get over 24 hours (averaging about 30/best being almost 48) with 3-4 hours of screen on time. People will tell you that it takes a few days for things to settle before you notice your true battery life. I find this to be completely false. After my setup is complete and I notice that all my contacts (over 10,000) have been synced, I swap batteries and immediately enjoy crazy good battery life. I have my stock battery and 4 spares (QCELL from some seller on Amazon). They all seem to hold a charge equally. I have so many, just in case. I almost never plug my phone in, since it such a bother to be tethered to a wall socket or PC. When on the road, I always keep one spare with me (you just never know).

Of course, YMMV.

Best of luck and happy flashing. :D

Anybody have any issues with a GPS lock love the ROM just need the GPS and Navy to work. Help me please :confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buggerritt:
I was having problems with GPS for a while. This was after flashing a few ROMs. I tried using GPS fixes all over the place. I thought I was doing a clean flash by wiping data, cache and dalvik. So, I threw that out of the troubleshooting equation. Then, I noticed someone mention

formatting system

as a part of a clean flash. When I incorporated that into my clean flash routine, the GPS problems disappeared. I hope that this works for you and again, YMMV.

Best of luck and happy flashing. :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] njmeyers83:
I formatted the system prior to installation of the ROM and all the settings are on and still no lock and no navigation.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buggerritt:
I would try making a backup and odin back to stock rooted. If you can't get a lock, then, it must be hardware related. If you can get a lock, then immediately flash the ROM again once a lock is achieved.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] njmeyers83:
I got a lock no problem on stock rooted and I have a backup made of stock rooted. So if I restore that and let it lock then reflash my back up of this ROM I should be good right? Thanks sorry for being so needy.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buggerritt:
That's possible. If it doesn't work, I'd do it all clean and clear by odin to stock, get a lock, flash the ROM, get a lock. That way, you are eliminating the possibility of any of those things being the problem. Restoring can sometimes be the whole problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] njmeyers83:
Running the 1.8 imoseyn(sp?) kernel could that be it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buggerritt:
I'm running 1.8 and have no problems.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buggerritt:
I think that your negative experience may have been a result of flashing the GPS Fix. I know from experience that when flashing that fix, I would get no locks for about an hour. After that, it would begin to work. However, the fix never lasted long for me. After a few hours of use, my GPS would flutter away and it would be intermittent at best, until I flashed the fix again and waited an hour or so. I am using VRBLK3 RPM and modem with no GPS or data issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] njmeyers83:
Where can I find the rpm for the newest modem?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buggerritt:
Modems and RPMs are all available here. Latest is VRBMA2.

I just flashed them and am getting great GPS in my house.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fasheezy:
Will VRBMA2 work on properly on this ROM since it's a 4.1.1 ROM and the modem/RPM for VRBMA2 is 4.1.2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buggerritt:
Any Verizon GS3 modem/RPM can work on any Verizon GS3 ROM. They are not android version dependent.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] brandonrossl:
You must not read well, the radio fixed my issue, I still have the gps fix installed and it's FAST.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buggerritt:
I read your post just fine. I noticed that you installed.the GPS fix immediately after flashing the ROM. Afterwards, you experienced no GPS. Then, you switched modem and rpm. Then you got locks. I imagine that if you wiped data, cache, and dalvik, then formatted system, then flashed the ROM and never flashed the GPS fix, your results may have been just as great as you are experiencing with you VRBLK1 modem and RPM. I am saying this because I am have been using the same modem and ROM that you complain about and there has been no issue. I am also saying this because it is a known fact that after flashing the GPS fix, you must wait a period for GPS to start working. This is common knowledge in that entire thread. I won't discuss it anymore, because instead of considering what I say, you take offense and make insinuations on my ability to comprehend the English language. Also, this is completely off topic from the OP. Everyone is ecstatic that you have a FAST GPS fix. Good day to you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] brandonrossl:
Oh that's right, the guy on the internet knows better. Such a surprise.

Gps issues - known issue with production run of some phones

For those of you having GPS issues, there are several possible reasons:

1) Known issue with flashing ROMS without a GPS lock

2) Known issue of AGPS causing lock problems

Both of these can be "fixed".

3) There was a production run of SGS3 phones with faulty GPS chips.

They would work perfectly until some outside stimulus goofs them up.

This could be a physical shock, or from what I've heard at Verizon even ROM changes could cause this.

If it's THIS cause, the only fix is a new phone.

I spent an hour with a verizon tech who was a member here and very sympathetic to us that like to run custom ROMS.

For me a new phone was a blessing. Warranty replacement, no cost, and out of it I got GPS back, plus a phone with a new shiny screen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droid2drummer:
Although you are right. There was a bad shipment in the first wave of production in gs3 line most had sticker saying "updated" for a few months untill all finally were fixed permanently from what I gather. However...I'm not saying its ok to flash then brick your gps or phone in any way then expect verizon or asurion to send shiny new one and my reason is simple. As I'm sure its been stated before on the forums it costs us all in the long run. Ie.. jacked up prices etc.

Not saying your condoning either but just an opinion I express often when I see this type post. Peace bro. And glad your all good now...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobd2754:
Anyone have a problem with beaming a photo from one device to another? I'm running CR Lite 5.6 with no issues, stock kernel, no mods. When I try to send a pic over to my stock un-rooted Nexus 7 (JB 4.2.2) it makes the sound and says touch the screen.... the Nexus the tries to open the Play Store. It says "no connection" even though wifi is working. I have done this before with these 2 devices, what's up?

Ok, it works the other way from N7 to S3. Now i'm confused

Update : it works between 2 S3s, but with a different Nexus 7 it tries to open play store

Can you send photos over android beam? I know with the S3 it's actually using s-beam (wifi direct).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobd2754:
thanks for getting back, I can do phone to phone and Nexus 7 to phone, but not phone to N7. The N7 run 4.2. the phones are CR 5.6 so 4.1.1 baseband is BMA2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kujayhawks77:
just tried on mine (I honestly forgot my N7 had NFC and I could transfer photos that easy) and it worked both ways. I am running 5.6 lite with lk3 baseband my N7 is running mmuzzy's 4.2.2. Not sure why yours isn't working.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] brandonrossl:
boot to recovery

clear cache

clear dalvik

fix permissions

Turned off S Beam, now it works going to Nexus 7.

will we be seeing an update to this rom similar to the non lite version?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jynxx:
I'm wondering as well
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] helobubba88:
Scott has released 6.0 in one flavor only and if you want a "lite" version then just pick a launcher, Google play store, and Google voice.

Sent from my SGSIII
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gts24:
The precedent has been set that there is always a lite edition of this ROM which coincides with the release of the mainline ROM. It seems logical to ask if there will be an update.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] michael*:
Just don't reboot after flashing radio & rpm and before flashing the rom. I don't believe the order will really matter if you reboot with all 3 in place.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FastEddie422:
This is only anecdotal but I flashed the rom, the radio, then the rpm and I haven't run into any problems yet, although I haven't been playing around with it for too long. I don't believe it matters at all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bigdad1963:
Thanks to you both for the input. Gonna go for it now.Seriously excited.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sfobrien:
Yes
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jbdan:
Yup that too and I think it's pretty darn cool :)

The icon, is a little tiny house with wifi signal bars above it. It's super teeny tiny

OT: shout out to WormDoes good to see ya man!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BBCheese:
Think it has to do with the radio. Went back to HE and the date and time seem normal now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jbdan:
Although I'm on the new modem/radio and date/time is fine
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1ManWolfePack:
Ditto.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sfobrien:
For the date issue try this. Turn off automatic time, turn off device, pull battery for few seconds then reboot and set automatic time back on. This seems to have helped mine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gfausey211:
Mines good too
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BBCheese:
Spoke too soon. The HE radio causes the same issue. I'll try this suggestion.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ralphie0108:
All I did was turn off auto time and turned back seems to have fixed for me. Didn't have to restart.

Unfortunately I have messed something up... please help. I flashed this with the new radio and rpm and now I have no mobile signal... it wouldn't even allow me to use WiFi to access the web even though it said I was connected to my WiFi I have restored the nandroid but still no mobile signal can someone please help me asap thanks

Specifically:

Cleared data

Cleared cache

Cleared davlik

Formatted system

Flashed modem(newest)

Flashed rpm zip

Flashed ROM

It rebooted first time I booted after that and then it booted normal and now I am having the issue I mentioned above. Any help is appreciated, thank you.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] V-Ty:
Ok... This rom is amazing. I wiped data, cache, delvik, and system. Flashed rpm and radio, then rom. Fixed permissions and booted. It looked as it was going to go into a boot loop and felt 2 vibrations. It restarted and was at the rainbow for about 4min. Then tada!!! PERFECT. No problems of date and time or lights on the bottom. Works perfect with no issues. I went threw the set up only setting up gmail, let the apps from the store download. Left the phone alone for about an hour to let it settle in. Just lettin ya know!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FastEddie422:
Maybe wipe your dalvik and cache again, as well as fix permissions? If not you might have lost your IMEI, which means you'd have to check out http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1867442 to recover...although I didn't think that affected wifi.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jaskwith:
Yea my imei says 0... is there a way to fix it from my device only? My personal computer literally just took a **** on me the other day so I have no access to a computer right now..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jbdan:
idk...can you go to "about phone" then "status" do you still have your imei?

**edit** I see that you lost it. Yup you'll need to go through the steps to recover it have you backed it up? I still think it is recoverable if not, but hear its a pita. Good luck sorry that happened to you
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jbeitel:
My real icon theme works fine, just flash the non percent one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jbdan:
This would be a good time to reiterate how important it is to back up y'alls imei before doing any further flashing. Now that it's happened here it seems as any flash on this phone no matter tw or not can cause loss of imei.

Here and here
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jaskwith:
No I didn't back it up....silly me I thought that it was happening to people cuz they were flashing stuff that wasn't made for their phone.... been holding out on flashing anything on my vzw s3....after flashing multiple ROMs on my ATT phone I didn't think backing up imei was really all that necessary.... unfortunately this ROM's lure was too strong and I caved and flashed and poof there goes my imei...and as I previously stated my personal computer literally died on me like 2 days ago so now I'm going to have to find someone's computer to use.... man I am really upset right now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bL33d:
I did actually seen a guy asked no one replied. But IMO it should be stated in the op so there won't be need for questions.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jbdan:
I haven't had to venture there yet....thank goodness :p //knocks on wood//, but do some research and reading (I know it sux) because from what I've read loosely over the last few months is that it is still recoverable so your not SOL :)

---------- Post added at 10:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:37 PM ----------

I agree and think it will soon. I think that is Scott's intention in the 2nd post hopefully he can get these kinds of things/questions posted there for all to read. Should also include backing up IMEI too
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FastEddie422:
Could be worse, man. My cousin (who just switched to over from apple) tried to flash MIUI on his S3 last week and couldn't even get his computer to recognize the phone to Odin back to stock. He got the phone replaced without issue but I think it turned him off from android a bit.

Either way, I don't think I'm the right person to be giving you advice on IMEI issues but I hope someone else can help you sort it out better.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jbdan:
Yes. Perfectly. All your location settings are set up correctly and on right? Did you go through the setup where it asks if "You're in" or "No, maybe later"?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott:
Gotcha!

WHat you see in the screenshot is all that is in the ROM, Generally I dont give any support on the ULE version except posting it.

Its more proof of concept on how trimmed down the ROM can get.

Cool!

No, its flying for me! Mad fast!

I would. Yeah.

Thats encouraging! I will need to load maps to check i tout. Just woke up and tyring to see if any major issues...

Your suggestion fixed it for me...

I will post VVM in a minute. I keep forgetting those SOB's dont put it on the market....

Sorry to hear that man :(

I would agree!

I think this has to do with a default language settings or something. Thats what prdog told me. I need to investigate....
