is there a reason you would recommend the simple zip (with noizxiode) vs the aroma installer options?

EDIT: nevermind. I see the noozxide option in aroma. rebooting now

Great build as usual, although gps still borked for me
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dems86:
It takes two seconds to flash as opposed to a minute through aroma
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Enphenate:
I am having the same issues usually happens when the phone is in landscape mode after the screen times out. The screen freezes and I am able to lock and unlock it but it just stays on the frozen screen. It might be my voltage settings because I am using the FAST recommend voltages. This wasn't happening in build 7 though.

acid audio

I was able to get this working with the aroma acid installer. I find it interesting that the sound tweaks did not show up until I rebooted a 2nd time. Also, I am still not seeing the build.props file updating. I definitely am getting better sound out of the device, but wondering if I need to manually change the file as well?

EDIT: researched a little and found that the build.prop file editing makes ALOT of difference. it actually will ensure key features and tweaks from the install are activated.

I took the plunge (after my nandroid) and edited my first build.prop file, yeah me.

a reboot and....BOOM! great audio performance. Just noted that there are many options on how to edit that file, several I tried wouldn't save the file afterwards.

EDIT: after turning on some of the noozxine features, volume up to skip no longer works: (

what's that icon in the bottom left corner of the dialer? when I click it, the screen has a weird graphical glitch for a sec (flashing gray and black) and then goes back in a half second to the dialer with nothing different. what should it do?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] akakai:
i believe it might be the call recording option..

This is exactly whats happening. Only on screen timeout. Didn't notice if it is just landscape or if it was portrait as well.

odd. I didn't select that in aroma, which might explain why it's so broken, but it shouldn't really be there at all if that's what it is

that is S Voice. if you had installed it, you could set it up or use it via that button.

When I go on YouTube landscape mode it'll freeze unless I keep tapping the screen, has happened in previous builds too, anyone know how to fix?

No issues here. I'd wipe system/dalvik and dirty flash.

Is it just my phone, or does the "best face" feature not work? I hear the burst noises, but after that, nothing happens :/

It installs that feature no matter what you select

I like using the stock kernel with this ROM but am noticing it taking a lot longer to charge the battery now on B8. Is there a kernel setting or anything I can change to make it charge faster?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] m_s_ifland:
I use ktoonz kernel and it has a fast charge setting in ktweaker. It let's the phone charge really fast.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ProfLonghair:
IDK what you did, but the bass has really upped. I didn't install anything optional or change any settings (Beans 8), and been using the same headphones for years, and on a few songs today, the headphones were literally vibrating on my head. Same volume and everything I normally use. Not 100% how I feel about it, but impressive none the less.

This ROM is straight awesome for me.

Best of TouchWiz with the best of AOSP. Much appreciated Beans! I just donated a beer to ya

Can we get the touchwiz weather clock widget to work with the nova launcher?

Nope won't work.

Noone has made a app that's close to it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dmalikyar:
I was getting the same behavior when I used the aosp lock screen. I returned to touch wiz lock screen and no more issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Inkedadrenaline:
You have a link?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droid316:
You are missing the point.This guy takes the time to load a Rom on his phone and makes himself familiar with all the options of the devs Rom and presents us with a video review of said Rom.It helps people decide whether or not they would want to install a particular Rom.He is very informative with what he talks about in the videos.His own free time just like the developers.So imho I think he deserves a little bit of coin for doing this service for us.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sparkerjc:
You guys with the problems with the phone freezing in landscape read the OP, specifically the giant bold warning section about the phone freezing in landscape with the wrong options selected. If that does not apply to you, please say so and we can further assist you. There is nothing wrong with the ROM or the AOSP lock-screen.

It's in the requests for the next update. No word from beans though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WormDoes:
Guess no one else has an issue with the ugly TW clock on the AOSP lock screen?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dlongb13:
Yeah I am aware of the bug, everything was unchecked in lock screen settings. No need to get snippy dude.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hobart!:
Nicely said my friend! Thank you for those kind words!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xbiker321:
Thanks for the video reviews! I watch them to see if upgrading to the new build is worth it. Currently on Beans 6 and watched your video review of 8 and liked what I saw. Will be upgrading when I get a free min. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sparkerjc:
Sorry I sounded rude. Not trying to be snippy, just when there is a known bug it helps to say you are aware of it as well. Then we can move on to what the next issue might be.

You say when you hit unlock it goes to the frozen screen. what do you mean by unlock? The home button or you actually slide to unlock and then it goes to the frozen screen?

Is it OK to dirty flash from beta 6 to beta 8?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Vagitarian:
Just wanted to see if anyone else was having this issue. Flashed B8 with the note 2 camera. Everything seems fine except when choosing cartoonify from the effects options. Force closes every time. Anyone else having this issue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ProfLonghair:
V8. Tiny detail: the icon on the TW lockscreen for the weather is borked. It's like a smeared cloud, no matter what the weather. I'm in Ohio and it's January, so that's not too far off, but even so we do still have brief bouts of sunshine :)

That doesn't change the fact that he went around copying and pasting (spam) his note asking people for money in multiple forums. I'm just saying if anything that extra money that you might give him should be going to the devs... They are actually doing things that most people can't.

i'd add something about the s-voice button becoming just a glitch button in the dialer if you don't enable s-voice in aroma. either the button should get removed or maybe if it could be set to do something else
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sparkerjc:
I added it in, but I don't see the glitch button. Can you post a screenshot? The button in the bottom left of the dial pad goes to voice call for me which uses Google voice and works fine. I didn't install s-voice.

It looks like some devs on other carriers have made a better implementation of the long press volume to skip mod.

I chose not to install call recording (its illegal and inadmissible for anything of relevance anyways) and I have the glitch when pressing the bottom left button inside the dialer as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] crikev2:
i flashed ziggys newest vzw kernel with this so far it is running very smooth, always had good luck with his kernels back in my Evo days so i thought i would give it a try. Not sure about posting a link to it here but I will say it can be found in the synergy rom forum.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] daturkel:
oh boy, one person told me it was call recording, another said s-voice, now supposedly voiceDIAL (my bad). whatever it is, for me the button has the normal appearance (microphone with a little square of a phone on top) and is always blue but touching it causes the screen to freak out for a sec and do nothing. (as WormDoes confirms two posts above me)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sparkerjc:
I don't have call recording either and have no idea what this glitch is. Is it only during active calls? And is it related to s voice or call recording?

And I didn't say voicemail I said voice dialing... As in I click it and say " call so and so" and it works. No s voice. No call recording.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] crikev2:
on Beans 8 just hit that button and it goes to Svoice for me, no screen freaking out though.

I made a video too. Doesn't mean I would ever come on a dev site and ask for $. Make your own site and ask there. The Devs are putting a lot more work in than videos. Videos are easy. Somebody needs to check that ego

And if your videos are popular you'll be making some cash off YouTube... so honestly I don't really see the point in donating for someone making videos.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] daturkel:
my bad, voice *dialing*. regardless, another user is reporting that it turns on s-voice. for me, the screen blacks out (or sometimes grays out with a gray rectangle slightly smaller than full display resolution) before going right back to the dialer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sparkerjc:
Can you do a normal google search by voice? (Does the app "Voice Search" appear in your app drawer and work)? I think that button is basically a shortcut to whichever app is used for voice dialing, S-Voice being the default and google voice search being the secondary if s-voice is not installed. If neither are installed/working my guess is it probably glitches out... or there is some other issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Real_JESRadio:
Good point.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] daturkel:
voice search is installed, working, in app drawer. s-voice not installed (not selected in aroma). so yeah, seems like some sort of current issue. (rebooted since who knows what a reboot will fix sometimes, but the issue persists)

Not illegal in the state I live in. I personally don't have a reason to use it but I know people who have.

Sorry to ask, was it a clean flash? It sounds like we have the exact same aroma install so I just want to try to figure out why it works for me and not for you. :confused: Just to be clear we are talking the same button also, I put up a screenshot of the one I am talking about. Did you use the gapps from aroma or flash separately just out of curiosity?

mystery button
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] daturkel:
indeed it was a clean flash. and it's the same button. i used the gapps from aroma, is there any reason why i should flash them separately?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sparkerjc:
Nope, I just thought maybe if it was flashed separately the other gapps wasn't playing nice... I'm out of ideas. :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] daturkel:
video for the curious: http://videobam.com/EufHz (in this video it's not doing the gray glitch it sometimes does, but you get the idea)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sparkerjc:
Let's just blame it on the AOSP lock screen and move on! :laugh:

I think I'm going to do a nandroid tonight or tomorrow and try flashing some different combinations in aroma and see what happens. Maybe there is a dependency for it to work right... You could also try just re-flashing over your current build with the same options and see if it changes anything, like if it was a bad download or bad flash.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] daturkel:
I may give this a shot tomorrow.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sbattosai:
I have to admit I am also having major audio issues with the rom... I have installed beans 8 after a proper cleaning and I am so happy with the theming that I feel bad to say negative stuff on the rom.

But yeah I have a audio issues. The tracks have some milliseconds blanks, no matter the app I am using. Apollo seems to act worse and FC from time to time but what strikes me is that sometimes the music would stop playing, pure and simple. I had issues with the blutooth and my headphones... First I thought it was a kernel issue so I flashed galaxy kor 1.2 from rath1 but the issues still persist... I guess I will wait for beans 9...

:(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sparkerjc:
This is not normal. I listened to hours of music with no problems.

The short skips are common, and the only solution I have found is using poweramp and adding a buffer to it. Some other music apps also have a buffer feature. It's in the list of bugs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sbattosai:
Short skips common? First time I am hearing those and I have flashed a bunch of jelly bean roms..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sparkerjc:
Sorry, I mean it is a common complaint with this ROM, it is in the list of current bugs. The current work around is using music apps that allow you to set a buffer.

Really guys? Still with this Donation Button ****?

It's fine having a donation button, however announcing it to everyone in a thread that isn't even yours that you did not even contribute towards the product of it whats-so-ever is impassive, stupid, and immature.

Can you guys just not even talk about it anymore? It has nothing to do with the ROM at ALL. Next person to bring it up should face consequences from a moderator. My friend doesn't need his ROM thread filled up with bull****.

Both the people complaining and the person who posted a reply about putting it up are very immature. Ignore it and move on.

I deleted mine to stop this..I am sorry I posted the link...it was in bad taste and it won't happen again.

One thing I've noticed with the music issue. Not just this rom, I've had it with a couple others. Could flashing too many ROMs be the problem? After going through several flashes I had the issue many talk about here. I formatted the ext card, reloaded music. Works perfect. Just a thought.

Is anyone else having a small issue where when your screen times out, if you press the home button before the screen actually locks, it not only wakes the phone but also moves the current app to the background and brings up the home screen.

---------- Post added at 08:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:58 AM ----------

The only "feature" I know in some ROMs (not sure about TW) is that there is a delay from the screen going black to when it locks so if you click home fast enough it will wake your phone without going to the home screen so you can keep doing what you were doing. If you are using a third party launcher nova, apex, etc it could be taking you home anyway.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jdub251:
It does this when u either don't have Svoice installed or u don't have home button delegated to it.

He is right also. U can use alternative launcher.

Okay, when I installed build 8 I decided to try the Note 2 Gallery and Camera. As nifty as the gallery is, I find they both lag quite a bit more than the stock gallery and camera did. So... is there a way to get the stock gallery/camera apps back without doing a complete reinstall of the ROM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] teknomar7:
Were you using the AOSP lock screen? If so, I think there is a bunch of stuff you need to uncheck in the lock screen settings menu for it to stop doing that. I remember reading that somewhere in this thread... I don't use the AOSP lock screen.

Build 8 is awesome. I just want to say that I have no problems at all that the above posters mentions, audio, freezes, batter pulls, anything. Everything works perfectly. I dirty flashed over build 7 and run KT747 kernel undervolted, regular clocked.

Thanks for the great work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WormDoes:
I can't believe NO ONE else has mentioned the clock on the AOSP lock screen. Every build prior to 8 Beans used the correct AOSP clock. Build 8 is using the TW clock. It looks sloppy and incomplete, IMO. Don't know why he changed it all of the sudden :thumbdown:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] GreenMunky:
Since I use a modified TW launcher (4x5) I appreciate the clock font matching the TouchWiz font now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sparkerjc:
I noticed it, but I like the B8 clock personally.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WormDoes:
I can understand it matching the rest of TW, but the font doesn't match anything else on the AOSP lock screen. Looks out of place, IMO. I hope for build 9 Beans gives us an option for TW or AOSP clocks.

I can't be the only one who doesn't like the TW clock??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] APeaceofStrange:
I'm just guessing it needs it to have the tw weather incorporated on the lock screen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Relentless D:
This is the third time you have mentioned this and I think you just need to accept the fact that Beans has themed this rom heavily to his liking. Some theming you may like and some you may not. Take it or leave it but don't give the man irrelevant thumbsdown for it.

you can extract them from the zip file and side load them

Well, I just did a nandroid and re-flashed using a few different options. I left all choices where Bean's had them except any choices to remove items, I removed everything and it still worked for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] daturkel:
How odd. Not sure why mine's misbehaving. Doesn't really matter to me personally since I never use voice dialer but I suppose it should be noted. My aroma options were basically, other than stock: medium clock, remove all bloatware (including s-voice), stock music only and nova launcher only.
