If your playstore and play services are at there current revs their not going to update. The current rev for playstore is build version 4.6.1.7 and for play services is 4.3.25(1117461-036)

If his apps are downloading and installing without errors his playstore is functioning fine.

you can re-sync your google account and make sure it syncs back up with no errors.

If nothing helps i would re-download the rom, clean flash again, and see if it resolves the issue.

Will do, thanks for the info!

Just so everyone knows, the new nd8 modem works great on the mk3 update
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Danny1st:
Okay, so I do not have the phone in my possession (family issue and was unable to meet), but he told me all apps updated and even restored game data. But still no contacts? Also stated phone is working great, hotspot, etc... ? Still think I need to dirty flash or is it on Google's end?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
Took the plunge and did the update to 3.3. Its was real smooth. Everything seems to be working great.

Edit: I really forgot how much I missed this and most of The People... :thumbup::thumbup:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
As long as you haven't taken an OTA update it will work just fine. Just what I think but those people on cm11 saying it worked then bricked hours later.... Makes no sense but be warned

Have a great day!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] orlzzt:
Keeping fingers crossed. I will try it now...

Taz, correct me if I'm wrong, but don't you have a game to watch??? :victory::victory::victory:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] agentphantom:
nd8 working nicely on TPR yeahhhhhhhh
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
OK quick question for you veterans running TPR 3.3 the data signal which now appears on the upper left corner, I would assume that is download? Or is it representative of all exchanged data?

Have a great day!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
All exchanged data. Check it when you're pulling up a web page. It will probably say between 14 and 40.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tazfanatic:
You are correct LOL and what a freaking game heart attack city!

Okay I am going to go for it NO OTA here! I am going to try and find a flashable PRL update as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
Taz it's not worth the risk for a modem. It works just the same as what you currently have. I wouldn't have flashed had all these issues been made public prior to me flashing.

Have a great day!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
From what I've seen only people that have the mk3 bootloader are Bricktown with the modem.... Nobody with the md4 bootloader have had problems... So if you have Knox, don't flash the new modem
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] orlzzt:
I was on the MD4 and flashed it, and it works fine. I am actually seeing a bit better reception.

Great game.. great playoffs so far. Go Rangers!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] TexasLTE:
:good: same with me (thankfully :fingers-crossed:) , like flast said it seems to have only caused problems for folks on mk3 bootloader :good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KennyG123:
Which you can only get if you 1) Took the OTA, 2) Flashed the released OTA before the devs could remove the bootloader or 3) Odin'd the 4.3 stock tar.

Now are these bricks or sponges (soft-brick)?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Apparently hard bricks... I don't understand how a modem could do that, but with it being multiple people... Anyways, everybody's gonna have to upgrade to the 4.4 Bootloader to even run KK anyways, might as well do it now. CNex has a flashable for just the firmware in the General section.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wolfen1086:
I'm at the point I wish I'd stayed with a GS3 even though I went over to Tmobile from Sprint, I havent even bothered rooting it yet because I can't fiond a rom for a GS4 that I like, and teh damn ads are driving me nuts

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
Lol that would probably have been Uber (Fabian) who did that for you. You should feel comfortable enough by now to do it yourself. Just make sure you read it all 20 times and understand it before doing it.

OK here is the TPR 3.30 to 3.31 zip that adds [MENTION=3533781]dazednconfused[/MENTION] and [MENTION=1167171]rompnit[/MENTION]'s Wicked ROM Control - Thanks Rompnit for the help!

3.30to3.31.zip

This adds access to clock mods, Network transfer indicator, battery indicator controls, status bar icon control and also easy installation for Xposed mods so have at it.

Cycle Network transfer indicator on and off to remove.

It adds an app called Wicked ROM Control.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] offgridgrower:
so im making the switch to TPR from jellybomb .v20 soon. Im dl files today, looking for a little confirmation before i get started.

so once i get the rom on the phone, just wipe data only, what about cache(s)?

(going straight from jellybomb , no full wipe, TPR 3.3)

or should i full wipe, install TPR 3.17, then wipe data, install 3.3, then 3.31?

I have never flashed anything clean but YMMV. If you see an issue flash clean. If you want to clean your phone up a bit, flash clean as well. But I like 'em dirty..heheh
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] milky1112:
If you do flash dirty and run into problems. Please try clean install and see if they still are an issue. It will save the devs from chasing an issue from a dirty flash. :D

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
The 4.2 camera is cool but anyone who is going to use it needs to know that the gallery for 4.2 is directly connected to the camera. If you flash this you will have two (2) cameras and two (2) galleries. You can always freeze or remove the 4.1 camera and gallery. But you can not remove the 4.2 gallery because it's part of the camera app without removing the camera itself. The new gallery installed on TPR which is super cool will not be linked directly to the 4.2 camera but will work if you don't mind having 2 galleries. Now the photosphere benefits and edits will only work with the 4.2 gallery. You might be able to view it in regular gallery but not edit or do some of the cool things its capable of.

My hunch is that your recovery partition is borked beyond repair, this problem as you report it has been reported elsewhere and I highly recommend the following ...

Flash the team epic CWM, which will clean out gremlins, klingons, or aliens...http://k0nane.info/rom/ecm/CWM-Recovery-LTE-SGS3-Sprint-v5.zip

(website is here..http://www.epiccm.org/2012/06/cwm-recovery-on-all-sgs3-lte-variants.html)

then reboot, this will keep you rooted and clean out any schmutz ...

then, flash cwm or twrp ...I just so happen to have a link to a wonderful thread for you to pick from the latest flashables :rolleyes:

Anyone flashing dirty, you might want to remove tether before install. That may alleviate any issues with it; different versions, apk names, etc.. SuperSu, Tether, and Quickpanel have all been modded to 'disappear' from the app tray since they can be found in the Settings menu.

Any additional suggestions/comments on the installer? Easier? Would change... ? Hate it? Want more options? After all, this is The People's ROM! Built by people, for The People!! ;)

GPS issue?

Weatherbug stopped working all of sudden for me. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing, no luck. I think it might have to do with my gps, i noticed it was not on, i tried to toggle it on, but I get a system UI has stopped working, if i try to enable it through settings i get settings has stopped.

I have rebooted and cleared cache, still not having any luck, anyone have any ideas? I running 3.17
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tazfanatic:
All of a sudden this happened? Leads me to think that maybe a app caused it. I had that happening with Waze app had to reflash.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
Knox only affects if you need to send your phone to Samsung for repair, which most of us would never have to do anyways... Sprint / bestbuy doesn't care from my experience
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] figgarro:
Yep, now that I think about I updated a bunch of apps over the weekend, probably part of the problem. I have restrored to a backup i made in April and all is fine, I guess i will update those apps one by one to see if that was the issue.

Xposed Button Actions does the back to kill... You also grab the camera from Wicked Sensations or MOAR, or I'm sure there's an Xposed mod for that too.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] offgridgrower:
So i went for it, did a fill wipe, installed 3.17, let that update Google and all, then wipe data, flashed 3.3, let that update Google and all, flashed the 3.31 update, wake zip, rebooted. All seems to be working, so far, no shutter off confirmed but i do have kill list holding home.

Without nandroid back to jelly bomb and backing up stuff with titanium back up (that i forgot)

how and where do i go in the jelly bomb Rom zip to pull say the camera, fonts, etc. . And then install them into what i have now.

Thank you.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
System/apps for the camera and other apps (some apps may be in data/app depending on the app) and system/font for the font
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prboy1969:
Be warned the Camera may not work on TPR v3.31. TPR v3.31 is Android 4.3. JellyBomb is Android 4.1.2. That goes for some of the other apps also. The fonts should be no issue.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
The camera shutter sounds option is not there but it works with the sound setting. If you mute or place the phone on vibrate it silences the shutter.

Have a great day!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Chad The Pathfinder:
The camera shutter sound option is a csc edit. Go into system/csc/features.xml and edit with es file explorer (or the like) Its divided up into sections. In the camera section look for " <CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>false<" and change from false to true and reboot. That should add the option back into the camera settings.

Or you can copy the features.xml from Dandroid and paste it into TPR. That would work too.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] offgridgrower:
Ty, well I used titanium to back up the major apps I used the most, so far the jelly bomb Pandora and the you tube 2 are working fine. I figured if they work the camera and fonts should work. .. but you know better than me for sure.

Just to be clear, so I can use my laptop to open the jelly bomb rom and navigate to system/apps and try to pull what I want and see if it works?

Do I "flash"the apps or will a simple transfer and click install the apps?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Chad The Pathfinder:
I'd try to click and install. That way if something isn't compatible android will just say "nope".
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] offgridgrower:
Ok, I just noticed that my widgets don't size up to what they say in the in the widget menu. The widgets are one size smaller in width than what they say, any fix?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
They are sized right, you're seeing that because the launcher is modded to have one extra column... I personally replace the modded launchers with the stock tw because of that if I'm using the tw launcher but I use nova most of the time, great launcher, only down side is you can't use the tw widgets with it
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neuton:
Does the file taz has up on the mirror link in the op...does that also include the 3.31 files?

EDIT: Okay I did what kenny said and I only wiped data after I cleared cache and dalvik like I always do. I didn't touch the system at all. And when I ran the 3.3 rom that I got from taz link in the op..it did its thing and checked for previous rom and then it said formatting and installing system files and it also installed the mk3 modem.

However at the end when it was time to reboot it asked that the system might try to install the recovery files...so it asked if I should say no or yes disable recovery flash. I hit disable and I kept getting a boot loop into cwm. I tried it a few times with clearing data and installing the rom again but nothing.

In the end I had to wipe system and reinstall 3.17. Can someone please tell me what went wrong??

*** Also I find it weird that even after wiping data and then formatting the system to go back to 3.17 my downloads from before are still on the phone? This is the eternal sd storage.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KennyG123:
Wiping data ONLY deletes what is in the /data folder on the phone memory...it does NOT format anything. All your pix, music, old app folders, any mess that does not conform to putting things in the /data folder will still be there. It does nothing to the external sd card.

No, the 3.31 is a separate zip to add Wicked ROM Control.

Reflash, and say yes to everything.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neuton:
Yes king I did say yes to it all and got caught in that loop into cwm. It would not start up only keep going into cwm.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KennyG123:
Try redownloading the ROM from the dev-host link in the OP. Put it on your phone's memory in case your sd card transfer is giving you problems. Also you can flash right after booting with 3.17, you do not have to wait until all the apps have updated. <fingers crossed>
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neuton:
Okay...so if anything try a dirty flash then :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tazfanatic:
In case here is a mirror for the 3.31

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neuton:
Ok I got it to 3.31 after redownloading the 3.3 Rom. But I tried to go into supers and it said it was unable to update the database...that I had to root my device. But it is rooted correct?

Edit: The Supersu app said if I updated to the 4.3 which I did with the new rom lol...it said I need to manually re-root my device...how do I do that safely?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KennyG123:
Just follow the instructions in the General section to root 4.3. On 4.3 roms when you exit CWM it will tell you it wants to fix root. Make sure you do... Every time. Whenever you boot into recovery these updates try to break root, reinstall stock recovery.. All kinds of crap... So make sure to always choose fix root. I don't use TWRP so not sure if that detects this issue and also offers to fix it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] offgridgrower:
Do you have a link for the stock tw launcher?

I am on CWM Kenny, I am looking in the section but I do not see the one for re-root, but I will look again...was using the phone at the time but it is harder to do it on there. I saw some old post from last year about this issue but was hoping for a more upto date one lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Use Philz recovery (Philz Settings has a reroot option) or just flash the SuperSU update zip in recovery
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neuton:
I tried the update SuperSu option but all it did is uninstall SuperSu and then the play store re-installed it but it still wouldn't let it update the binary.

Will Philz recovery remove the cwm from my phone? Has anyone else had this issue when switching the rom from 3.17 to 3.3?

Thank you bilgerryan, I went to the thread for the rooting that talks about the philz recovery, I grabbed the 2 files he mentioned and all I needed was the update supersu one, I had done it before but didnt realize I was using an older version lol. Now everything is back up. Again thank you and Kenny
