Encrypted flag

I previously had my phone encrypted. I installed some other ROMS, which wiped the encrypted volume. I can use other ROMS fine, but every time I reflash Intergalactic 3.0, on boot I still get the dialog which requires entering the password to decrypt the phone. I can't get by this screen, since it won't accept the password that was originally in use, and the phone is not encrypted anyway. There seems to be a flag set somewhere to cause this, but I can't find anything. I've repeatedly wiped everything before and after flashing Intergalactic, but I simply can't use it because it requires a password for encryption that doesn't exist. I really would like to get back to Intergalactic for some of the features, but I've been unable to use it. Anyone have any ideas?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stratatak7:
Have you tried using Kies to do an emergency firmware push? You'll have to reroot, but it should send things back to normal.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sgosnell:
No, I don't use Kies, and I don't own a Windows PC. I'm Linux-only. I could probably adb the firmware, if I had a link to it.

But I'd still like to understand why some ROMs, cf CyanogenMod, boot fine without the password prompt, while others, cf Intergalactic, won't boot and won't accept any password.

Edit: actually, it does boot, it just won't go past the non-existent password, to 'decrypt' the unencrypted phone.

I can't get this ROM to download.....no matter which mirror I try. It downloads for a little bit and then fails. Tried it on WiFi and 4g. :(

Sent from my AT&T S3 on T-Mobile 4G

Odd, I have no problems/issues from any link, via WiFi...maybe try via your PC then transfer over to device. ;)

I miss the AT&T Wi-Fi. It's it as simple as putting the apk in system/app, or is there another file I must add too.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] maxoooo:
How to get in network setting and change to 3G or 2G only? In my country there is no 4g...

Thank u... :(

Well it has been awful quite in here. Strat hope you doing good and everything is OK. Noticed there seems to be a KitKat out now for our phones, in our developers section. Anybody checked it out, or y'all working on something. Even though this Rom is working great without issue, it just TO DAM QUITE IN HERE. As you just noticed I'm screaming, about to go nuts.

Anyways, hope everybody is doing great. Rom working great without any flaws I can find.:angel::confused:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Duffman14:
Kitkat is still buggy but looks to be progressing nicely.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stratatak7:
Sorry things have been so busy lately. I really have quite a handful to do. Two projects with presentations, I had three tests last week Wed, Thurs, Fri. Now this week Thurs, Fri. I work Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, Sunday. I did some kernel work to get root working on 4.3 and once we get an official ROM out in the next couple weeks, you bet I'll be working on it. For now, I ask that you all hold tight and I'll do my best to keep up. Also, XDA hasn't been giving me notifications on my phone lately. I'm not sure what's up with that but it needs to be fixed. Glad I checked in tonight. Anyways, I must get back to studying. Good luck and thanks for holding it down guys.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] scorpiopantera:
Broke my screen and the LCD was damaged too. I am buying a Nexus 4 this Friday.

Thanks for all of the fun and a very, very stable rom Wesley!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cliftomr1082:
You the man, I wasn't pushing. You have a great rom, but real life always must come first. So study hard, become real brainy and you might own XDA.

I accomplished what I wanted, got some activity going in here. It is so dead quite here, I guess from not much trouble. So go back to studying.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Clark Joseph Kent:
Wat! Study and School over rated....:p:laugh::p Good luck and did you get my notifications...:p:eek:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cliftomr1082:

I too am having issues with the xda app. Most of the time when I tap on a post to either comment or Thank someone, the app closes. I can't quote, or multi quote either. And I only get notifications on a reboot of my phone. Even then the notifications aren't found. Anyways, I understand the study and homework issues Strat, having a tough semester myself. Running loserskaters Rom now. And waiting patiently for yours. "Thanks"
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stratatak7:
Damn XDA app needs to get it together. This is a tough part of the semester isn't it?

As for loser's ROM. I'm running it too until we get an official leak and then I'll run my own tweaks, etc. I should have time over break. If you're running the 4.3 ROM, me and upndwn4par put that kernel together either way. Loser's a great dev. Much respect.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Darian71:
Yes sir it is a very nice Rom. Thanks to you both for fixing the root on the kernel and optimizing it. Battery life isn't quite as good as the kernel from the 4.1.2 but for 4.3 it may never be, but who knows. With you guys all things are possible. Really like the extras you put in yours such as status bar tweaks, battery icon preferences etc. Have a great rest of the semester! (I skipped class this morning to get ahead on some Algebra) lol

Dito to that,You are you the man strat' we can wait.. 3.0 still works perfect for me.. Don't work to hard.. Find time to play too..
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diablo009:
3.0... muahahahahaha!!!! I am still on 2.8 right from the day of its release!!!! And still running strong!!!! I don't think even Samsung/AT&T release was as strong as 2.8 (well, that's what I am on). I think 2.8 was some time in April, and that gives it a full 7+ months of going strong!!! And strat, even the kernel is the same kernel C from releases prior to 2.8.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stratatak7:
This is my absolute favorite online math tutor. This guy saved my butt in calculus loads of times. He also has TONS of algebra and also statistics videos. He makes it super easy to understand: http://patrickjmt.com/

Back on topic. You guys are so kind. Thank you for sticking with me and I'm wishing you all the best in my current hiatus. I'll get this bad boy running 4.0 when we get a new release. I like 4.3 a lot despite its minor buglets. Nothing we all can't iron out. :)

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diablo009:
Now I have some time to spare Strat and feel I'm ready to jump from 2.8 to 4.0 whenever you are ready :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] matrixzone:
I falshed back v2.8 after reading your comments. To my surprise after running v2.8, the mobile phone seems better. Performance, Battery is much better than 4.1.2 or 4.3. Think Samsung is sacrificing the battery life after each update, i was getting very bad battery life 4.3 leak. Samsung has been adding new Apps, latest being Knox which just impact the battery life. So think Samsung should focus on user experience rather than the just adding apps without any logic.

Just thought I'd share our official update info incase you didn't catch it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cliftomr1082:
What up guys, quite in here. Somebody liven things up in here.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diablo009:
*** breaking discovery ***

Ok guys, not sure if its a discovery or find or anything, just felt like sharing with you...

Prelude:

Non Google nav apps used to kill GPS. After some time, the icon used to vanish, and GPS stops working. Only way out was to restart phone.

My Efforts:

I was looking for on if anyone else too had this issue... unfortunately, that post didn't get a single reply.

I was looking at some new ROMs to see what else is new here, and in one of those threads, the OP posted that if GPS acts on their ROM, to try rebuilding nvdata.

My experience:

I rebuilt nvdata on my phone, and rebooted. Well, thus far (*touch wood*) GPS started working well.

Accidental Find:

Its not the just the GPS, even my phone became smoother. I have absolutely no explanation on what rebuilding nvdata did, but I even down scaled the governer from "intellidemand" to "bad ass", and max speed from 1.24 to 1.02, and surprisingly, it still is much smoother than it used to be before I rebuild nvdata.

I did NOT even rebuild dalvik cache or anything!

If anyone has any explanation on what made my phone smoother, I am all ears. I still can't believe rebuilding nvdata had this kind of effect.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cliftomr1082:
Now that's the way to get things going in here.

And then to ask a highly technical questions, you the man.

Just wish I knew how the hell to answer it!!!!!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diablo009:
Ok... After a couple days observation of doing this:

1. Negative: GPS still acts up.

2. Positive: Phone has smoothened up.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pickupman66:
Hmmm. How did you rebuild the nvdata?

Alternate gps fix
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diablo009:
Its under options under mmsc code *#197328640# from stock dialer.

---------- Post added at 01:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:23 AM ----------

The thing is that GPS works perfectly. Its just that in non Google nav apps, after using for like 30-60 mins, it kills GPS. Turning GPS on n off won't help. Only way out is restarting phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrhaley30705:
Here's the link for the alternate gps fix. It also works when you lose gps going back and forth between aosp and tw roms.

I'm having the same GPS problems, except it is with standard Google Maps and Navigation. Sometimes the GPS icon just doesn't show up in the statusbar and it will never lock on, have to reboot phone.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diablo009:
1 a. Touchwiz - Samsung stock modified as needed

AOSP - original android, won't find any carrier specific apps.

1 b. Recommended to wipe system and data before you install this ROM.

2. Yes. Installation instructions in OP (first post in this thread).

Intergalactic 4.0 is being prepped for launch and should be ready for testing soon. Thanks to loserskater, without whom, many of the updates features would not be possible. Sorry for the long wait everyone. It's coming. :)

Edit: Lost a lot of my hard work due to 7zip failing hard. Always make a backup. No worries. I will get it fixed, but this puts release behind a bit more. Thanks guys.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cliftomr1082:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DEVLIN7:
sounds good
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diablo009:
I'm sorry to hear that.

Strat, for this very reason I installed free version of version control system on my laptop. Any work I do, I check in regularly. It not only keeps backup, but also keeps versions too in case of wanting to revert. Sharing info so may forget about backing up regularly :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stratatak7:
Okay, here is the first and hopefully last version. It should be good for release. It includes the Xposed framework but you will need to install it with the included apk if you choose. This will allow you to tweak as you please. I am also including the CRT off animation (finally), some original Intergalactic wallpaper packs, the usual behind the scenes battery and smoothness tweaks, proper APN settings for maximum speed, Insecure kernel, Knox and SELinux disabled, rooted with SuperSU, the AllianceROM boot animation, some tweaks from loserskater and enewman17 (many thanks to them for those), a few goodies, stock Google Keyboard, AT&T debloating, transparent AccuWeather widget and S4 widget available. There's a lot in here guys. A BIG thing will be that you need to update your bootloader and your modem to MJB to get data/wifi working properly. Some of you may not be willing to do this because once you update the bootloader, you can't revert it at this time. Welcome to Intergalactic 4.0. :) Please let me know if there's anything funky going on and I'll fix/revert it until I have more time to further implement things. Thank you all for your patience and for staying with me.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stratatak7:
From the S3RX thread:

Option A: MJ2 bootloader and MJB modem

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23269279319197286

If you choose to flash the official MJB bootloader and modem package DO NOT try to install any older bootloaders or use any odin.tar, you will brick your phone.

Option B: Official MJB 4.3 bootloader and modem

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stratatak7:

flash instructions

I noticed in the OP that you did not specify flashing the kernal, but i see it in the downloads section.

can you clarify the flash instructions so I do not make a miss step and brick my phone?

Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stratatak7:
+1 guys. Please try the mirror in the OP.

The flash instructions are exactly as specified in the OP. I always include the kernel just in case someone changes to a non-stock kernel and wants to come back. The ROM includes that kernel. As long as you are on the new bootloader and modem, this ROM should install.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mhumfleet:
kernal

so coming from S3R3 i should be good
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stratatak7:
You should be 100% perfect.

I'm working on a stock weather widget fix. There should be a transparent one in the widgets but I'm not sure if it worked. This being a first version, I'll be sure to fix it. Is that the only thing you guys have seen so far? Just want to iron everything out. I hope you all are enjoying so far.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cdjaney:
Only problem I've seen was TW launcher kept throwing errors and FC'ing. Only a temporary annoyance since I typically use Nova anyway. :D

Just came from S3Rx 4.3, yours seems a little snappier.... maybe kernel tweaks??? Anyway, digging it so far! :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Only question I would have, screen off torch (hold volume up tweak).... I can't seem to get working on either ROM.... enabled in Wanam too.... there a secret or is it a WIP?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stratatak7:
Hmm. It may be because of the weather widget. That's the only thing I can think would cause TW launcher errors. But that's a big deal for me. I will revert these changes and fix it by tonight. Hopefully that should solve those issues. Sorry about the hiccups! Anyone else with this issue?

Secondly, I don't use the Xposed mods, but that is probably the main cause. I was not able to get all the tweaks working. Did you try the loser mods?

Edit: Can you guys try changing the wallpapers and let me know if that's causing crashes?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cdjaney:
Changed wallpapers with no issues, lockscreen and main..... bear in mind again, I am using Nova launcher if that matters
