What lockscreen are you using and do you have Ripple Effect enabled in Lockscreen options?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] APeaceofStrange:
The swipe lock screen with lockscreen controls?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Stock. Yup.

Enough with the updates Google!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thejron:
Had stock swipe and then I just disabled ripple effect. I'll report back after some playing with it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Sorry. To clarify. I use the pattern. The controls show on the pattern lockscreen. Sorry. My bad.

Enough with the updates Google!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mav3rick478:
Thanks for this, now I remember I used to use pattern lock because coworkers love to hack Facebook statuses lol.

Hey [MENTION=4395895]beanstown106[/MENTION] is there anyway to implement the controls on the stock lockscreen with just swipe to unlock and having the short cuts on the bottom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BeansTown106:
Do u have lightflow or any other apps that require accesibilty? Those will do the same thing as having ripple effect on aosp lock screen. If you are using the galaxy s3 ripple lock screen and ripple effect u should have 0 problems
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bettadaze:
any quick tips on where to start to try and see whats causng some apps to completely freeze up my s3? Chrome Beta is usually the main culprit, and then will take at least 3-4 minues to unfreeze. Been using Beans for awhile now, but haven't really figured out this issue. Would a quick fix permissions help clear some of it up?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ucpro:
The Rom has really slowed down my phone. I've used greenify to hibernate the apps that said were running in the background and pending, I've checked gsam battery monitor and the most that an app has taken was 17%. Even Lmt keeps restarting, which also slows me down
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ace2d:
I personally call shenanigans, i bet there is something else going on in the shadows. Been using tgis rom since b10 n i never had any issues that were rom related when it came to speed. My speed issues were always and app i had running.

My gf loves you now beans... She got a gs3 over the weekend n i had her run the stock 4.1.2 for a few days so she'd be able to tell the difference. Rooted, put her on b15, with tkmod n she is loving it. Hasnt put her phone down much between messing with settings n playing that stupid ****ing candy crush game. Last night she asked me why i didn't force her to make the switch from her iphone sooner.

If there is something else going on in the shadows, I wouldn't know how to find it with the apps I have installed now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sweeds:
You guys will need to provide some more information if you want us to be able to help you.

[MENTION=2722154]bettadaze[/MENTION] and [MENTION=1957112]ucpro[/MENTION] try an app called SystemPanel. You can use it to see how much CPU and Memory apps are using. And u can enable Monitoring in the settings and track these statistics over time.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.systempanel.r1

(they also have a free version)

.....

For everyone else out there, B18 has been running great for me with LeanKernel 3. I love the TouchWiz stability with AOSP aesthetics!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ucpro:
The cpu fluctuates between that and 35%
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ace2d:
You have any of those alterate market apps? Also i am a noob at trouble shooting someone more experienced will chime in but as i stated my issues are usually app related and once in a while i clean up my storage and back up and do a fresh install.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
For the Google boot animation? If so, that's just how it is on this rom.

Guys going to flash this beautiful rom on my wifes s3 in a few minutes. Anything to know besides factory reset wipe everything format sd? I read through op and didnt see anything out of the ordinary. No need for radio flash or anything? Thanks guys

Sent from my SCH-I605 using Xparent BlueTapatalk 2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Its encouraged to flash the VRBMF1 firmware but not required. Turn off Ripple Effect if you're going to use any lockscreen except TW lockscreen. So long as you follow the OP, you should be all set.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ucpro:
I have the Amazon app store. I'm thinking about buying a class 10 Sd card. Maybe that'll speed things up a little.

GPS toggle issues

This is not the normal GPS issue, I'll open waze, or maps and it tells me it can't find me, or lock on, and there in the task bar there is no GPS seeking signal status thing, but if I turn off GPS from the quick bar and then turn it back on I get a lock pretty quick. I have all three location settings checked but it seems that apps cannot toggle the GPS on. Any thoughts?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] davidmcw:
Can this be done after the ROM is installed? My phone reception is horrible and it's not clear what my options are in terms of radios, etc.

Advice appreciated. Kick a$$ ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] omair2005:
yes. you can go to settings, about and see your signal strength with your current modem, then flash the latest radio and compare.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] VigilanteM2:
Hey guys, quick question. When I clean flashed into this ROM, I did not use the 50 percent more audio mod that came with the ROM. Now, I would like to use it. Is there somewhere in the settings where I can enable it? Or can I/have to do a dirty flash to install it again?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jurassitol:
I see the file in the rom zip but it doesn't have a file extension, and there isn't a setting for it so it looks like a dirty flash may be in your future.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
/apps/misc/50sound/etc/sound_soc_msm/sound_soc_msm_2x is the file you're looking for (in the ROM zip file)... It has no file extension....extract it and overwrite the one already located in /system/etc/sound_soc_msm, change permissions to rw- r-- r--, reboot, profit!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ellisz:
The newest radio does not work as well for me :( my phone is also a bit more laggy with 18 than it was with 15. I wonder if a kernel change would help? I have always used the Beans kernel in the past though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BrUhNiGGs:
Flash Operation Killjoy + Crossbreeder (Google both of them) and see if that smoothen things up a bit ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sideoutjj:
I too got the "Unfortunately System UI has stopped" as soon as I got to the "start" screen. Anything I need to worry about or fix?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] unhappybirthday:
Whenever I do a full reboot or start from power off, my phone always does a hot reboot about 30 seconds after I get the lockscreen. Stays running after the hot reboot.

It doesn't matter if I leave it at the lockscreen or enter my pattern and start using it.

Update: Some experimentation revealed that this is related to the Xposed framework. I'll take my issue over to that thread.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sweeds:
Turn on Monitoring and let it run for a day or two. That will log over time to see which apps take up the most RAM and CPU.

I doubt your lag is directly caused by the ROM. Probably a rogue app or maybe Kernel. What Kernel are you using?

Yes you can flash a modem baseband (radio) afterwards the same way you flash a ROM. I *think* he was recommending to do it first, but after *will* work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sievers:
Lockups 99.9% of the time in Landscape Mode

So I ran into a major issue with build 17 and 18.... I've been a long time user of Jelly Beans and have never seen this happen before. Here are my phone details:

Hardware Version I535.10

Lean Kernel (Stable one that came with the rom).. also have tried Bean's Kernel as well

Problem:

If I run an application in landscape, and the phone goes to sleep.. after 5 - 10 seconds or more I'll turn on the screen, the application screen is stuck on the screen. I've receive phone calls I can't answer, and it seems like the phone is running in the background.

What I've done to Troubleshoot the issue:

Imaged both builds 17 and 18... issue remained

Unrooted brought back to stock to return to Verizon... issue was gone.

Rerooted installed 18... issue came back

Installed another Rom (DanDroid)... issue was gone.

I would like to go back to Jelly Beans as I think this rom has the most options with a ASOP theme. Does anyone have any idea to what I can do to fix the issue I'm running into?

Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Gutsman:
That sounds like the lockscreen ripple bug. Turn off lockscreen ripple and see if that fixes things. Apps that use accessibility controls can also cause the same bug.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Srambo217:
Evidently my phone doesn't want me to talk to my wife and keeps blocking her calls. Tried to edit the Block Settings in contacts and it just force closes.

Blocking only works with TouchWiz messaging. It force closes if you are using AOSP messaging.

That sounds like you tried AOSP messaging and tried going back to TW or Vice Versa and didn't delete the Databases. Sounds like you need to wipe everything and start over. :cool:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xaybor:
interesting....

i noticed that if i download most of my apps from the google play store, they work properly.

for example, the new map and navi system was ****.....tried so many things....

then i did a reflash of this rom and only install really needed apps, everything run so much smoother.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] VigilanteM2:
Thank you for the quick answer. I found the file you were talking about. Pardon the noob question, but can you guide me on how to "change the permissions to read write mode"?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
Make sure you have es file explorer or something similar...and make sure it has root privileges....next...do this...after you get the file copied to where it should be...long press on it...and press properties, then press "change", then set the permissions the way I have in the screenshot, then reboot...done!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] razortaz18:
Maybe I missed it somewhere. Is there a way to change the AOSP lockscreen targets?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Nope. Hardcoded into the aosp lockscreen. Same as on aosp.

Best kernel
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
This is a rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Fate0n3:
Can anyone give me some info as to why the Wifi Tether app would be force closing all the time I can't tether or apply any settings due to it force closing. The rom was fresh installed with a complete full wipe of everything. I am running the KT747 kernel not sure if that affects it or not. Would like to at least know what might be causing the issues I have tried wiping the app data and everything.

Thanks

Speed UP GPS

So my GPS was taking longer than normal to lock. I tried the built in FasterFix, didn't help much. I replaced the /etc/gps.conf with the one found in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=953630

and it was almost an instant lock! Try it out.

Use root explorer or something similar. Rename the current gps.conf to gps.conf.bak.

Then I downloaded the zip for your area,

extraced the gps.conf and pasted it to etc/ and fixed permission. reboot.

I'm on the latest radio and clean install. My phone won't hold 4g and my phone calls to about everyone is broken up like I have poor signal.

Edit:also receiving repeat texts
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
That is one weird map lol last time I checked, the entire Southeastern and Eastern coast bordered the ocean.

Pull the sim for 30-45 seconds. This will update your PRL. Might suggest a dirty flash/clean flash next.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xgerryx:
Was the fast charge mod removed somehow? Using "ffc" in terminal emulator just brings up an error now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
USB Fast Charge is kernel dependent as well as way of accessing it. Check kernel developers thread. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xgerryx:
Ahh thank you. I think I just have the normal one that came with the ROM. The first option on the aroma installer.

Going to flash leankernel and just go with that one.

Any chance this will get ported for us cellular? Or does anyone know if someone already has ported it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
I've noticed this a lot and don't know if it is really rom related but I get the msm_otg wakelock and it really drains my battery not letting it deep sleep, does anybody have a fix?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Don't get it or know what causes it. Many are getting it across roms and devices. Don't know if yall are trying to use hdmi to tv, an app that looks for otg out or what. Full wipe and reflash should fix it. Wipe data/system/dalvik and cache and reflash. :cool:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MorphiousGX:
I'm with you on this. I came back to Jelly Beans after trying another Rom and regardless of what I do the screen is stuck in some app after screen off. I can unlock the screen. I can check notifications but I can't do anything else. Only way to get out is to pull the battery and reboot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hillmom:
I'm running 18 and haven't experienced that problem myself. Here is what I did during the install, sone of it might be over kill but it my usually flash routine.

1) Reboot recovery and back up existing ROM (after checking MD5)

2) Wip everything (including internal storage and system) but external SD 4X

3) Reboot recovery

4) Install (doing an additional full wip if available in the installer)

5) reboot and let settle for 10 min minimum before setting up.

Not sure if anything I did during the install helped, or what.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] unhappybirthday:
Discussed and solved many times. Turn off lockscreen Ripple Effect (or choose the stock SGS lockscreen). Ripple effect causes this to happen with other lockscreen styles.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sshafranko:
I would suggest leaving ripple effect off on any lockscreen.

Stick with the SGS3 stock lockscreen and ripple should be fine :)

GPS

Beans has been my goto Rom since I first rooted this thing and I thought I would report something that is puzzling. Over the past few months I have run Beans 18, MOAR, Hyperdrive, And CM, all having issues with getting a GPS lock and holding it.(Tried the screw thing to no avail) This has been really annoying while using navigation because it would just drop. So tonight I decided to restore an old Beans Build 15 Nanadroid and now it locks within 15 seconds usually getting 17/21 sats. on the other roms I was lucky to 7/21.

Is anyone else having gps issues? Are they possibly because of the newer firmware? I don't know, anyways, I will probably run Build 15 for a while and never delete that nandroid...:D

Love your roms Beans!

Anyone having a problem with it connecting to Kies on Mac? it was fine b4 the ROM but now it just sets on "connecting" and never connects

And why do you need Kies when on custom rom? It is bloat to us and has been disabled. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mav3rick478:
Maybe he doesn't have a micro usb reader or hasn't tried Airdroid? Wait what is kies for again lol? I know android file transfer is hit or miss since our phones came out.

Appreciate the response even though it was harsh. Being on road and only using phone to browse makes it hard to actually search the forum.

Should have put the disclaimer beginning of my other post. I should know better
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TillysWilly:
I have had android since the first time it was release. I use Kies bc yes android file transfer is not reliable what so ever. I will be transfering a file and 1/2 way threw it will just disconnect so I will have a dirty file I have to delete and start over (if I can ever get it to re-connect). Kies has been flawless for transfering. Also I have all my appointments in iCal and the only way I can get it to sync is threw Kies. I can hit sync all day long in the calander app and nothing but hit it in Kies and everything transfers. So yes there is a pretty good reason behind it. Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mav3rick478:
Never knew Kies could be used for iCal syncing because I never bothered using it. Good to know. Can't you sync your iCal through Google calendar and in turn have it sync to your phone calendar? I'm gonna try some experimenting now, you've got me intrigued.

Yes android file transfer is the worst, hell getting my phone to recognize on my MBP running lion is impossible. Good to see another Mac user here though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kude87:
Hey everyone,

I have an odd issue. Fix Permissions in CWM doesn't seem to be working for me, but it is only on this rom. Very weird. I try to run it, and it says "done" in about 1 second. It actually isn't running. I have to Fix Permissions through Rom Manager, which is a bit annoying with all the reboots instead of doing it within CWM when I flash stuff. Any thoughts?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
The real question is why do need to fix permissions. I personally never use it. If have to fix permissions your apps and rom don't match. Fix permissions is to try to match nonmatching UID's caused by dirty flashing non matching rom bases. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kude87:
I guess I've been using it when I change kernels. Wipe cache, dalvik, fix permissions. That's really the only time I do.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Never done it. The zip binary sets permissions and boot is on a totally separate partition from everything else. Wipe Dalvik/cache yes. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kude87:
Huh, and after all this time I've been wasting fixing permissions and such with each kernel change. Good to know, thanks! :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
I've flashed roms and kernels thousands of times and never used fix permissions. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kude87:
I guess now, out of curiosity, why would this ROM not allow me to do it, though? I can nandroid to other rom backups, and they all work just fine. I just find it strange. Good to know it isn't essential.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Fixing permissions was so pointless that cwm got rid of it in the latest update. :D. Never did it either...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thefatalepic:
I must say, I've been a crack flasher for quite some time now (new to the S3 but coming off of the Galaxy Nexus) and never have I seen such a polished installation. I've flashed a rom that used an "Aroma" installer before, but it's implementation was nothing like this.

I chose this ROM to try out TW a bit since the first thing I did was flash AOSP on my S3. I'm just amazed and impressed you could say.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Personally, I never messed with AFT. I've been relying on Airdroid with my MBP running 10.8. Been great for me, just happy there's a consistent solution for my use over the last eight months.
