Quick question Goldie. The only color I changed was the random color a day and i only checked status bar icons like the clock and Wi-Fi. Also checked the box for default in app color and have the same issue. Just wondering how the default toggle would help when I'm under the impression that I an running the default color for in app text.

Also, as far as i can tell from being on 22 & 21, goggle music is the only app with the issue. Wonder if installing an inverted version would help
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BrokenWish:
Yes it's for b21 n b22 go to that link n you ll see it at the bottom of OP under beans
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Goldie:
By default I mean no text color mod. At present text color mod overrides the color set by apps themselves with our default of white. The toggle would revert to using the app set color.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aypeeootrek:
Gotcha. I don't want default then lol. I may try installing an inverted music and see if that helps. You guys are the bomb
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] S. Prime:
I was having the same issues with viewing text in menus and this is what I did to fix it.

Go to Settings /Alliance Custom Settings /Rom Control /Colors

Unchecked Linked Color Theme

Tap Unlinked Colors /Others

Tap Phone Text Color

Unchecked Alpha

Tapped my choice of color on the color palette (black for me)

Tap OK

Go back to the Colors Screen and tap Restart UI and you can see the results below.

You also get a better feel for working with colors. I am far from being knowledgeable of customizing our ROM, but this method did give me visible menus.

Have another small issue.

Have Alliance v22 / KT747 installed and I run a scheduled Titanium Backup job at 2am but ever since upgrading to v22 the phone goes into deep sleep before TB finishes, so when I get up in the morning I have to wake up my phone to get the backup to complete.

Any place I can tweak to make sure the phone stays awake long enough to finish the backup? Generally I only need about a minute.

thanks -
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] matthew.fiore:
thanks, that helps a bit.

i have mine close.

the only problem i have is with the POWER MENU text. it ends up black on dark blue.

once you click REBOOT it goes white and looks good

and also the text on the top of the color picker SELECT COLOR is black on dark grey.

how do i change / reset those?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AnTiDoWn3r:
Anybody else having trouble connecting to the back camera? Mine just shows a black screen, no error or anything. The front is working great though. Tried clearing cache but that didn't help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidxxxxx:
Mine seems to be working fine. I also swore this rom had lock screen rotation but I can't find it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Hahaa. Lockscreen rotation is the worst mod ever second to homescreen rotation on stock touchwiz. If gonna rotate need to use 3rd party launcher so can at least get the layout right in landscape. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidxxxxx:
Well you know what they say about opinions. Lol I just keep mine in landscape doc on my dashboard so when I need it to quickly unlock I use face unlock and just look at it lol but it won't work unless it rotates. All in all this ROM is running really good. I just wish they would put the WPA PSK option back in the wifi tether so my printer could connect. All they have is WPA2 PSK and OPEN..why they got rid of that I will never know..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Yea. I have car dock so it landscapes auto. Also have eprint printer so that not a problem either. No paranoia here so never lock phone anyway. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wonderrx:
Very very cool, many thanks for your efforts Goldie!

Try testing through IOTHiddenMenu. *#0*# in dialer. If it doesn't work: use a file explorer (I use ES File Explorer)》/efs》carrier》HiddenMenu》{edit}》OFF "to say ON》reboot. Then try *#0*#...a 3x5 menu will appear without hitting the dial button and you can test most of your device's hardware related systems/features . Hope this helps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidxxxxx:
No paranoia here either, just common sense lol I guess you've never had your Facebook randomly posted by another person about how your new bra fits lol....:/ just so happens my HP 460 C will not connect to anything but WPA PSK.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] griz.droidx:
I've been running this since last night and I have to say you've done a marvelous job at this. It's all great. The options and customizations available are plentiful. The only option I didn't like and tried using is the flashlight at lock using the up arrow. Most of the time when I'm using media players, I can still skip tracks using the volume keys but when using the noagenadroid app to listen to their show, I noticed that when I turned off my phone and try to increase the volume the show stops but I don't remember seeing the torch come on. The function works fine otherwise.

This is just an extremely mild gripe that has nothing to do with the rom. Personally I've been spoiled the fact that I can use the unlock button in aosp by tapping it twice to activate torch. Or set the home key to do it with a long press. I mgiht be able to do all this through wanam or another X-posed module but I stay away from all that unless absolutely necessary.

I love that you can change any and all colors under the sun. but I'd still like to get rid of some of the blue left in the framework. I've been thinking about using either all blacks black or a bandit theme then going from there.. perhaps I'll try these after I get my latest crack flasher fix. Otherwise it looks and runs flawlesslly! I highly recommend this TW to anyone who's on the fence, flash it already!

Thanks again for your hard work on this and your past roms. I remember your early work with CM on the Dx.. I think it was CM ICS if I remember correctly.

It's nice to see you wiz and other friendly faces still hanging and banging out code for those of us who are mere mortals.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wonderrx:
Same experience here, I loved the quick access to the torch with the double home tap. I always have a media player running so the up volume torch never works for me. I too love the rom, it's been rock solid since I did the full wipe of my internal memory and installed completely clean with 21 and then dirty flashed 22 on top of it, still rock solid.

FEATURE REQUEST - If possible bring back the double home click torch launch! Many thanks!

When I scan my phone with my Antivirus it keeps showing the yellow gallery as a threat... Has this happen to anyone else?

Just out of curiosity before I test this rom since I've been on aosp for a long time now -- Can someone please post screenshots?

I'm coming over from TKRom and I was wondering if the TK Theme pack will work with this ROM??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
It might, but it probably won't theme everything.

You're better off sticking to themes for 4.3 only, everything in that pack is for 4.1.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] talon4x4:
Ahh yeah. I didn't even think of that. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Herbbowlman:
I searched the thread and found others with the issue, but no resolution. Is there a reason for the delayed action when pressing the home button? It behaves a lot like S-Voice waiting for a possible second button press in earlier releases, but that doesn't seem to be the cause. This happens while the screen is on.

While the screen is off, I've noticed a delay between pressing the Home or Power buttons and the screen coming on. This doesn't happen all the time, and may be unrelated to the Home button behavior when the screen is on. My uneducated guess is the phone is entering some sort of 'deeper sleep' mode which takes a tad longer to come out of, as I've been seeing greatly reduced battery drain while the screen is off in 4.3.

Both are slightly annoying, though I'd accept the battery life trade-off in the latter.

Any ideas or thoughts?

I'm using the stock kernel, without any other mods installed.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wonderrx:
I'd like to try a few themes, what 4.3 compatible themes have people been using? Links if possible!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheDriller:
Cobalt looks nice. One of my all time favorites

edit: but then again why would you want a theme, when you can make this ROM look exactly how you want it?

Is there a way to increase the volume? Usually I see an option in aroma but on this Rom I did not see it? I just came over from moar and love the rom so far...just need the louder volume.

And yes, I tried searching for it...I am probably as blind as I am deaf..m

I swear one time I am going to search you tube and someone is going to do an overview or a how to video about all the sick customization that build 22 is capable of and then I will have to take a weeks paid vacation from work just to play with it man would that be awesome. !!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] S. Prime:
Thanks prdog1, I am assuming that the zip is flashed in recovery, also I am curious if the mod replaces the system \etc\default_gain.conf file and if so does it rename the old file?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Nope. This is the old 50% mod that affects ringtones and system sounds only. It changes the soc file in etc. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] OnceAMatrixMan:
Flashed this ROM about 12 hours ago (my first time on a Beans ROM), and it's still early but I have to say I am impressed. Battery life is really good, customizations are great. It took some time to figure out the colors, but you get the hang of it - the color chart in the OP helps a ton. Thanks Goldie. And the clean install using Philz Recovery that Beans suggested was great and on the money.

There are a couple of things that I need to figure out still and the ROM may need to settle in still -

* like why the microphone is in the notifications bar in the lockscreen (I think it has something to do with voice control, but on or off the microphone is there),

* the messages preview also in lockscreen does not work (or it could be text color) so I have to turn that off

* There seems to be a lot of lag turning on the screen with the power button, sometimes

* There is some lag when closing stock SMS, but again sometimes not always

* tried to flash the Black Glass theme, but it gets stuck on "rebooting", but I believe there was a post about this earlier so I will take a look.

Going to keep playing around with the settings. Thanks Beans and everyone on the Alliance team!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] S. Prime:
Should we rely on a nandroid backup or saving /renaming the soc file, if we are not pleased with the results or does the flashed zip create a recovery option?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Make nandroid or will have to pull original from rom and replace it. Can rename the original before flash. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] griz.droidx:
I agree if you could add the mod that allows customization of hardware buttons while on the lockscreen then you could map torch to the home button.

Also when using volume buttons to skip tracks, usually this is done after long pressing for a period of time. Otherwise it will operate volume. This is something I just can't live without. Using the phone as an audio player in the car. You don't even have to turn it on to skip tracks. Very Very handy. or alternatively use the volume buttons to adjust the volume. Again, very handy in the car or when working outside. I originally bought my first smart phone because I didn't own: an mp3 player, Navigation device, ebook reader, PDA, tablet, laptop, portable gaming device, or a good phone. So I really really use my device for everything under the sun.

Thanks again for the rom, I'm going to be installing it again since trying MOAR, another nice TW rom with a ton of customization, but I just liked alliance more (I don't know why, but it was smooth as silk), I just hate having to use xposed to add stuff that can be baked in.

I did try using the all blacks back theme before installling MOAR, it worked great. I just wanted to get rid of all the TW blue in the framework. It did the trick. This go around I'm tempted to try one of the old Cobalts for TW or Xtheme. If anyone has experience using Cobalt or anything else let me know. Please..

Thanks again.

Just trying to get some input about 22. 21 has been great for me. No lag issues and so on. One thing I would like is the ability to flash the themes. Can I do that on 21 using 22 themes? And by the way, where did hotspot go? I can't imagine it was taken out. ...

No MMS on WIFI is stock default. Not sure if hack is in rom are even available for 4.3. If on WIFI the default is for data to auto enable while sending MMS. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] funkpod:
Hey, thanks for the input. What i meant, was that in order to send an MMS while on wifi, i had to manually turn off wifi, press send, then turn wifi back on. It was a bug, because it didnt' do this in another build. Otherwise, it would saying "sending" and it wouldn't send, and it would stay in my outbox, etc.

Alliance seems to work, though, cool.

There is the TW camera, is photosphere and aosp camera included? I think I'll try build 22, unless you recommend another more stable build. Baseband VRBMF1, i should be okay, right?

i can definitely see why you get a little short when people ask about colors. it is a ridiculous amount of playing with to get everything right. i would say this rom isnt for the beginner by far. you need a lot of time with roms to understand how to set this one up. it seems all the questions come from people who spend 5 minutes on a new rom and expect it to be ready. granted ive been a little impatient and asked dumb/easy questions on occasion, but its only after spending a few hours trying to do it myself.

personally i dont run alliance for the reason that it takes forever to setup.

i love beans work( and goldies) but impatience gets me everytime and i just give up.

now if there was an option that mimicked the "old school" jellybeans roms with little to no color choices, id be back for sure

if no one else says it, thank you goldie for your work on the rom. most of us appreciate your time and effort

as for the mms/wifi switch over, there is a csc edit you can do to get this to work fine(at least it did on another rom)

i have it saved as a screenie, ill post it up later
