my keyboard keeps changing...unsure of how long it takes to do so but i lose long press options and i think the way it looks changes too. samsung keyboard. i tried reflashing and it went back to normal...for a bit. then it went all wonky again. i can get screenshots if needed.

i have since gone to touchpal again but still weird.

also it seems like some of the settings dont always stick after a reboot. its not that they dont stick per sey but they change to something different, most of it is alpha settings for some of the backgrounds. hasnt done it since the reflash though so that might have worked

My call log and Tapatalk show only time stamps (no dates are shown for any of the entries).

Is there a setting I need to enable?

EDIT: Simple fix. Under Settings/Date and Time it showed a display date of 12/31/2014 but it needed to be selected (radio button was empty).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Libertarian73:
Thank you so much Beans!

I use Car Dashboard Pro but it can't seem to get control of the car mode. Build 22 was the same way, but it was fine in earlier builds. Thoughts anyone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] LiRa89:
Yes, it works,

after installing alliance version you can try it, some go through, some keep loading, or sometimes you can get a white dot when group msg'n,

After installing aosp ml1 contacts work and group msg'n too

Have tried with two Android phones (mine included) and an iphone,

Also with two iphones and my phone
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] helobubba88:
Try this:

Under Settings/Date and time/Select date format, it shows a display date of 12/31/2014 for me; however, I actually had to tap it and select the radio button for the date to appear on the lockscreen.

Hope this helps.

For those of you like myself who absolutely MUST have AOSP messaging....I just stumbled onto this awesome free messaging app in the play store! "Sliding SMS" ...It really does, for the most part, look and feel just like the AOSP messaging app that a lot of us love...AND....it has iOS style emojis! Right now the developer is not charging anything for the app, but there is an option to give a donation inside the app of any amount that you want, ranging from $1 all the way up to $20! Also, it seems to just take over, meaning, if you already have the TouchWiz messaging app installed, you WON'T receive double notifications! Unfortunately, it doesn't seem absolutely perfect yet, as it has force closed on me once or twice, however, I'm sure that can be straightened out over time! It's at least worth a shot to check it out if you need that AOSP messaging fix and don't want "Contacts" constantly force closing!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hoodieNation:
You can also use "8sms".

Works pretty darn good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mav3rick478:
Have you looked at Slide Messaging Pro by Klinker apps? Looks like the app you posted is similar. I use Slide Messaging Pro and have not had any issues from earlier builds to even now and also on AOSP roms. Guess I never knew what aosp messaging looked like because I was always using this (which looks like what you guys are looking for) and before I was using handcent.

Is there a way to increase jack volume output like on AOSP ROMS? Stock volume from jack lacks oomph.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
You might have a shot with Trickster MOD....I'm just not sure if you need the donate version to do it or not. Try it out and see how it goes...

My question:

The dialog menu boxes in Google Play Music are white text on white background. How do I fix this?

Snapchat, the whole contact list shifts down leaving the top portion of the screen blank, happening to anyone else?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] exAusTiN:
Anyone know why I'm at 37% percent on battery and my Screen has taken up 85% of that, but has only been on for 1hr 9min. I have my brightness on pretty low so it cannot be that. Flashed the DKP kernel after flashing the rom.

One of my local weather apps is doing the same but only on certain menus... wondering same thing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrite123:
Why are so many people obsessed with AOSP messaging app? I tried it once and immediately looked for a new one. Am I missing something? (no offense)

I am having the same problem with pop up notification titles showing up clear or the same color as the background, nearly unreadable, as well as other things occasionally doing this.

On a side note, how can I boost volume similarly to the MOAR Rom method?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
The only reason I love it, is because I have a VERY decent and capable phone and I can't stand when something lags like crazy and just doesn't really work smooth when everything should be smooth! Let's face it, we're not using the OG Droid here, we're using the SAMSUNG GALAXY SIII! There are many parts of TouchWiz that I love, don't get me wrong, but I absolutely HATE the TouchWiz messaging app! To me, it just doesn't work the way I want it to! Oh, and let's not forget the fact that AOSP has the built in iOS emojis, which I only love so much because that makes it so there's not 1 single thing an iPhone owner can rub in my face, saying...."My phone can do this, but yours can't!" Does that answer your question? Lol..... I seriously despise people and their iPhones!!!!

Edit: I just reread what I wrote here and just want you to know there was no intended attitude:D:cool:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bigee1212:
To fix the colors, you have to go to the AllianceMOD Custom Settings Menu -> General Mods -> Dialog Pop Ups User selction and pick the one you like, I picked Holo Dark.

Then based on the color you pick, go to AllianceMOD Custom Settings menu -> Colors -> Unlinked Colors (Assuming you aren't linking) -> Text Colors -> Pop up headers text I made HOLO and In app Menu Button text I made BLACK for apps like google play music where the dialog pop ups cannot be changed (stays holo light, thus black would be the choice to pick here).

Only downside of this is Holo Blue looks bad on the Power menu header, but w/e only complaint. Rom is awesome.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dvaderx:
I know there is an exposed module to do it, but is there a way in the rom or xml file? i'd hate to run xposed just for that.

When creating a reminder using Google Search the time and date appear in white font and can't be seen. I'm currently using S5 theme
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] S. Prime:
I have said it before, if you are having trouble with menus showing the text as white on white and you want a simple solution, go to apps, Alliance Manager, Choose Themes, select S5 style and you will have your issues corrected. I was in the dark, until Goldie developed Alliance Manager and now I have learned a great deal about modding the theme in our ROM, using Alliance Manager as a safety net.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] :
I have tried setting the theme to the S5 theme but I'm still having problems with visibility in menus. For example if I go into the settings menu of hangouts, I can't read the text. It's dark (black I think) on a super dark background. (Attached) What can I change in theme color links to fix this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] I_TerraBull:
I like the quick reply feature found in the AOSP messaging app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrite123:
Thanks! Worked great!

All good. I personally use Go SMS and was using hangouts for a minute. Go SMS has an emojis plugin as well. I, too, can NOT stand iphones and the apple worshipers. iPhone menu navigation is f***ing terrible.

Thanks!

Great work on the ROM! In the past my phone didn't handle ROM's with all the customization but that's not the case here.

Hello 'exAusTiN'.

Did anyone reply to your post, because I am having the same issue. My battery is 'DRAINING' rapidly! I have been reading through the forum and was wondering if flashing the KT747 Kernel would solve the issue and if it can be flashed on this ROM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
I'd try wiping dalvik and cache first. Sounds like CPU stuck wide open. Not sleeping. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Master Cylinder:
You could use the cpu display in the notification panel, but OS Monitor is awesome. You'll see what's going on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] S. Prime:
I did a bit of searching in our forum and found that prdog1, (thanks man) had stated that you could run the aroma installer within the same version of the Beans ROM without effecting programs or data, so since I was experiencing rapid battery drain on the stock kernel, (which I had used on all previous versions). I decided to run to aroma installer again and select the KT kernel, leaving all the other settings the same, I was prompted to wipe dalvik and cache and it took quite a bit to boot initially, but my battery life has improved tremendously, and all of my apps and data were unchanged. I am not sure if wiping dalvik and cache or the new kernel is responsible for the improvement, but I am happy with the results.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
If drain is rapid it was the Dalvik wipe. There is not gonna be that drastic of a difference in the kernels that you would be able to see it. Wiping Dalvik and cache is a known fix for a non sleeping device. :cool:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
And if I may add.....sometimes (actually, a lot of the time) the best course of action is to make 1 change at a time...otherwise you'll never really know what fixed your problem! Probably was the dalvik wipe...just my 2 cents.:D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
This SMS problem has been going around aosp based ROMs now for about a month and it only effects VZW, specifically areas where they have recently done work on towers. The reason his SMS is not working is because he used the aosp MMS apk and that has aosp frameworks compiled in which is where the problem lays
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ghost Protocol:
Hello 'S. Prime'. I did do the Dalvik and Cache wipe only and so far it seems to fix the issue! Battery life seem to be much better and I am happy now.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] OnceAMatrixMan:
I agree v22 is perfect - so good that I don't know if I want to flash v23. The one and only issue I have is that screen rotation will lock the phone up occasionally (requiring a battery pull). I turned off rotation for now until I see a solution.

Thank you Team Alliance!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] exAusTiN:
Haven't heard anything back from it yet. I wonder if I need to try a new kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] LazerDino:
KT747 is an option in the aroma Installer, so should work fine.

Posts in another forum suggest wiping cache & Dalvik in recovery to fix the issue

Yes. Wiping Dalvik and cache will usually fix a fast drain problem. There is not enough difference between kernels that would be able to actually see it. Even undervolting is only worth maybe 30 minutes on a full charge cycle. :cool:

Hi all I am loving the look and features of this ROM however there is a good bit of lag during certain activities/apps.Seems to be common for me on any Touchwiz ROM.I would like to stay on Alliance so I am hoping to find some useful tips to help me speed the device up.I have tried different animation settings and GPU rendering on or off but doesn't seem to make much of a difference.I am using Apex launcher free version and I just updated the kernel to Ktoonz but any advice would be much appreciated.Can't seem to find much doing keyword searches.I am willing to flash back to stock and start over if that is what it takes which I have done a couple of times throughout my flashing career to clean things up from time to time.I am of course running the ML1 modem.

Just wanted to comment that I have been running this ROM (23) since it dropped and this is by leaps and bounds the most customizable ROM ever created. With that comes a fairly steep learning curve. However, taking the time to read through this forum answered every question I had and helped me to set it up the way I want it. I feel like "Private Powell" in Full Metal Jacket e.g. "this phone is mine, there will never be another phone like mine..etc". Thank you Alliance Team for your ingenuity and the regulars (you know who you are) for helping us get the most out of this aging phone.

P.S. When upgrade time comes, I got to go to the land of the free so Bean's let us know if you make the switch to T-Mobile.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrite123:
Undervolting is really a big fat myth. It causes instability with hardware which means it can lag and cause the phone to eat more power and in most of these cases cause the phone to hang and/or reboot on its own, which Is very bad. Rebooting uses a lot of battery. And if your undervolt was successful (not too low to cause problems) it still only adds a whopping 2-3 minutes to battery life, while still risking reboots caused by some apps. What I learned this year is after installing a rom or new kernel is raise all cpu voltages by 5 or 10 digits (if using ktoonz stuff). I did a bit of extensive testing with his kernel and it seems a lot of phones have problems with his default voltages.

Also I made a theme I thought was worthy of sharing, if anyone wants to use it. Here are some screenies.
