What recovery are you using?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hobart!:
I was using philz...then tried twrp rollback to 2.6.3.1..both not working. When I use root browser and go into system to move anything in or out it says operation failed..sometime it moves it mist times it doesn't. Something funny is going in here. Maybe need a reflash..hmm

Got it to work finally...got it to push to system finally. ..still weird

Lol i meant forth.

On a side note, just trying backing up the Rom twice using the latest twrp in anticipation of testing your app but I got a fall twice. Going to try and use my rom toolbox pro app but wondering if anyone has a suggestions. Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mav3rick478:
TWRP 2.7 has issues with backing up for some people like myself. For others it works fine, I just decided to back to 2.6.3.1 since works all 4.3 ROMs.

Thanks,I may have to do the same. After i used r om toolbox,I think it worked. I wasn't watching it the entire time and it rebooted on its own after over ten minutes(which is pretty long imo) and I checked the size and it was 2.55gb so hopefully it was a good backup

I haven't backed up the Rom yet anyway so I figured just to have one regardless. And when do you plan on sending out the app for testing? Just curious

I usually just format internal SD and wipe cache and data, then you're all good to install fresh.

my banking app won't work propery

i loaded the latest build (22) and tried to run my banking app "Citizens Bank" and i can't log into the app.

i uninstalled the app and reinstalled and it didn't help.

what happens is that after i enter my ID it brings up another screen to enter my PW. when i type in my PW it doesn't show up on the PW screen, but rather on the previous screen!

e.g. on the 1st screen i type in "ID"

on the 2nd screen it type in "PW"

nothing shows up on the PW screen but if i go back my ID is now "IDPW"

Same thing happened to me. I solved it by turning off DRM Protected Content Storage.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Dcox28:
Thanks for the tip. If I go back and try ROM again is that DRM in Developer Options?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] helobubba88:
It's a system app that can be turned off in application manager.

Thanks, yeah I had just googled it. Looks like some also freeze it with tibu
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sshafranko:
Guys just to clear it up a bit the sd downgrade zip I posted was originaly made for the note 2 I beleive and it was made for switching between Aosp 4.2.2 and TW 4.1.2 Roms. The reason for it is because the Aosp sd file structure is as follows:

Internal sd-Storage0

Ext sd - Storage1

TW file structure:

Internal sd-Storage0

Ext sd - ExtSdCard

So flashing TW from Aosp the Aosp file steucture would stick and you wouldnt be able to find songs, pictures, etc. That zip brings back the correct TW file structure. Thats all.

Going from 4.4 to 4.3 or vice versa this is not needed. Just wipe your internal sd and everything else your suppose to wipe and you should be fine.

Sent from my SM-N900T
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Dcox28:
Makes sense. Pardon the question but all my apps are on my internal SD as well as my tibu backups. Guess I could copy the tibu backup to my external SD and then wipe internal but just curious what you or others do to keep from losing everything when you wipe internal?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sshafranko:
I move everything over to ext. or save to pc. I move all my user apps to my extsd but leave the data. Never move the app data over to ext. The only thing that you will loose really is your app data and some apps if stored on internal. What you should do before flashing a rom is backup all your apps and data with an app such as Myback up pro. (Its the one I use) That way when you wipe your internal sd and flash a new rom you just restore the back up of all your apps and your good to go. Make sure you dont have any pics, videos, songs, or Twrp backups on your internal before wiping. If you do just copy them over to ext using root explorer or such, or using your pc. Pretty simple. Just remember never store app data on extsd.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sfobrien:
Yes you can I have mine set to the external card. Open TB hit menu then preferences then back folder location.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] KevinGee:
Here's what I did too solve this problem.

I backed up all my internal storage to computer, then proceeded to format internal. (Only had to do this once so it was worth it.) then right after the format, I flashed an AOSP rom 4.4 so the /0 folder was created then I proceed to move everything from my computer back to my internal so now since the /0 was created before I had my pics, music, backups... Etc in the internal storage, I can switch back and forth from tw to aosp without having to worry about pictures or music not showing.

Play around with the color settings under Custom Settings > Rom Control > Colors.

I had the same issue and ended up setting the Theme Color to a blueish hue, then under Linked Colors I checked Phone Text. However, it took me a while to get them to stick.

question on xposed

I saw a lot in this thread regarding not using Xposed, but I've noticed that it is actually installed with the ROM. Is there general issue with Xposed, or is it the UI modules that create a conflict?

Edit: just realized it's accessible from rom control but not recommended.

any problem with going back to JB20?

Will I see any issues (I'll know soon enough) unless someone say in the next 10 mins.. if I rollback to JB20 / ie not 4.3. this rom is nice but the lag / lockscreen issues / and overall lag is not usable for me anymore.. If no one reports back I'll report back my success.. I figure I'll just

-format cache / dav / internal / system etc and start fresh.. and if the ML1 modem doesn't work I'll flash a VRBMF1 when on 20.

I've gone from 4.3 and 4.4 back to JB 20 several times.. just never had the ML1 installed..

thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
The only issue I foresee is the /0 directory on your internal storage. If I recall, build 20 is TW 4.1.2 so all of your data will need to be moved to /sdcard unless you have no qualms with wiping internal storage.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JustinDC:
thats what I figured.. no quams at all.. thx
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buffal0b1ll:

Back on JB 20 and here is lockscreen option

This is the lock screen option a few of us was referring to a while back when we switched to 4.3 or >= 21

Screen Lock is Secured with pattern

I've done my best by searching as well as a quick review of the last few days with of posts and I'm not believing this isn't an issue for someone else, so please excuse me for asking what must have already been asked and answered, but surely, someone Whyte had lost the ability to read and write to external SD card...?

Apollo nor Play Music will even look at my 10gb of music, TiBU says it can't read the back ups there and Pocket Casts says all my downloaded podcasts don't exist...

I HAVE to have my external SD! It's 64gb of data goodness and I spend most of my time in a cellular black hole - without the SD, this is not a viable option as a ROM for me. I've been on AOSP forever but really want to make this ROM work for me!

Anyone for any ideas as to a fix?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Alliance Manager is a one stop shop to create, install and backup your styles and settings. Users can create their own styles to upload for everyone to use. If you want your style including in the app or available for others please upload it and post it in this thread!! The app will show no preview for your style unless you include a screenshot png named preview.png.

NOTE: The backup and inclusion of dropdown, statusbar and system wallpapers needs changes to your ROMs. These will be included in the next released versions so at present these wallpapers will NOT be included until you get an update for your device :)

The main features can be seen in this screenshot:

- Create Theme - This will create a theme.zip of all your custom settings that relate to theme options with a name of your choice. This will add all colors and theme settings along with dropdown, statusbar and system wallpapers to a zip that can be restored by you or uploaded for others to use. They are saved in the Alliance/Themer folder on your internal SD.

- Choose Theme - Choosing this option will display a list of all Theme.zips in the Themer folder. It will show you a preview image of the style and on pressing install will change all your options to create the style in the preview and restart SystemUI and Dialer etc

- Create Custom Settings Backup - This will create a backup zip of all your options in custom settings which will be saved in Alliance/Backup. This includes lockscreen options, general mods etc as well as all the theme stuff that is included in the theme zips.

- Restore Custom Settings Backup - Obvious really....restores all of your options

The app will create all necessary folders on its first opening and there are 5 preloaded styles for you to choose from:

Alliance Gold:

Stock Samsung:

S5 Style:

The Driller:

KitKat:

Thanks and enjoy :)

CREDITS: All of Team Alliance for testing this over and over and over again....Thanks guys :)

Starting in jelly bean, Google took out the api that let software on your phone go into / out of airplane mode. It's considered a security concern (a virus app can take over the phone and connect to internet without your knowledge). Problem is, that it is also very useful to extend the concept of quiet hours. Instead of just putting the phone to silent mode there are apps that let you automatically connect / disconnect network. Those apps no longer work without a patch.

Thanks for the suggestion for the XUI mod, but it works well enough without xposed for me.

Wow, it didn't expect to see a build 23, that's going to be slick. 22 is slick I think for a stock based rom, but wow 23.. Thanks again for the hard work you have put into this.
