I admit I've been on a flashing kick lately, so I've restored apps a few times.

I will uninstall and reload from scratch. Then I'll leave them alone to see if notification is restored.

The more I use the new Gmail the more I like it. The pull to refresh is much better than the click the sync button. O ce you set the archive delete option it's so smooth and easy to delete single emails or multiple emails.

Based on my experience coming over from the Epic, I think the full wipe issue on the gs3 is due to the fear of doing the wrong wipe and erasing the internal sd card - there is logic to the notion of erring on the side of caution; it's easier to redo the wipe if you forgot a piece than to recover data if you wipe too much ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] iamikon:
With twrp if you do advanced wipe choose data system cache and dalvik this is a full wipe and this data does not wipe internal sd card. Takes any guesswork out of wiping.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] styles420:
The difficulty for many users is that an infrequent need for clean installs makes this process difficult (more so for some than others) to remember with certainty - given that there is also a wipe function that will clear the internal sd, hesitation is wise. I've had to search to confirm the procedure for both of the full wipes I have needed since I've owned this phone (two decades of bullying from my mother's husband have not helped my ability to trust my memory). While I have too much stubborn geek pride to stop doing things manually, I do endorse the flashable script method for anyone who just wants to get the job done without the risk of accidentally clearing too much :thumbup:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] miller710:
There should be a clean wipe button for the recoveries lol

Sent from my blue galaxy
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] iamikon:
With twrp there kind of is lol it's just the regular wipe button :)

You sir are correct but theres also (at least in twrp) a warning you have to type yes into to wipe the internal sd. Though a wiping script is preferred for most users and should probably be in every op. I also always try to recommend people to update to the latest recoveries as these safety measures have been implemented recently.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] styles420:
Lol, I was going to point out to him that the problem isn't that the wipe function we want is missing, but that it isn't the only one (and the other one is destructive Inc a way that I'm not sure if even I could recover from... I might backup my internal at some point just so I can try my data recovery skills on an unfamiliar platform...)

Good to know - I try not to make assumptions, and I didn't want to find out the hard way if it turned out to be a one click wipe with no warning, lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] iamikon:
Ah this should happen. I am yet to find any good recovery method for us.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] styles420:
Then I believe I have a project in the near future... I have an idea, but it hinges on whether I can gain direct, low level access to the internal storage, as if it was a simple thumb drive in a usb port, perhaps... But I could write an essay of speculations and theories without accomplishing anything, lol - I'm suddenly feeling motivated, so maybe I'll have something promising to share later... ;)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] styles420:
I'll definitely hit you up if I get stuck (for now I do want to see if I can solve the puzzle, I've been needing a good challenge for a while, lol). If I can fit the pieces together the way I'm imagining it, I may be able to make an automated tool that will dump everything it can find, even if the phone has been repartitioned (as long as any formatting is done the quick way, which only overwrites the partition table and not the actual contents...)

Thank you to all those who weighed in on my lost notifications. It must have been caused by multiple flash / restore (mybackup pro).

And on another note:

When I ran Goodness Rom they had a Samsung keyboard with an extra row for numbers at the top, eliminating the press and hold for number entry.

I copied the apk from that Rom but won't install. (Both Roms based on TW)

Anybody have experience with keyboard mods? Would I need to do something different to add this keyboard?

I really miss the Smelkus-Mod Recovery. That was the best. It had four or five wipe method mods built into the menu. I like it way better than the ones I've tried on the S3.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] styles420:
Definitely, but not usually necessary - if it didn't take so long to copy a few gb of data then it would be no big deal... But I have seen a backup of 4gb take more than an hour, meaning over two hours of waiting (the restore process is just as slow) in order to do five minutes of flashing - that's something I'd prefer to deal with only when absolutely necessary ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
Back on topic here TPR is freaking awesome. Great since the OG Epic days and best in my opinion in the S3 with MOAR right behind.

this is quite, true, Styles. The first time I used upndwn's "Full Wipe-Factory Reset", I thought I was just doing a full wipe. Turns out, that one DOES wipe your internal SD! Mea Maxima Culpa; I should have read the OP and the thread more carefully! Live & learn...

The file that I posted a short ways back DOES NOT wipe the internal SD card, but DOES wipe data, as well as cache and Dalvik cache. (I keep the "Full Wipe-Factory Reset" file is a separate folder labeled "Apple Applications"). But the over-riding theme of this whole issue is that many users seem to be of the mistaken belief that ONLY wiping cache/Dalvik constitutes a "clean install". This is the misnomer we must address.

BTW: why would anyone or any program want to wipe the internal SD? Isn't that a bit... I don't know; extreme?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hdb15:
It worked on 3.15 but MD4 messed it up...at least that's the answer I got when I searched this thread and couldn't find the answer and asked that same exact question in the very same thread just a few pages back.

Thanks for the tip about the scripts - just like with the wipe functions, it's equally important to be aware of the existence of things to avoid, so you don't mistake them for what you're looking for :)

Boost, like Virgin, uses Sprint's network... But it uses the Nextel network, or used to, anyway - Boost had the push to talk (or "chirp" ) feature back when I used their service. I don't know the status of that network anymore, but it was SIM based (gsm instead of cdma, I'm fairly certain) - that very well could be the issue... I'll see if I can find out more, unless someone beats me to it lol

Well...I think I've become a flashaholic. I went ahead and flashed md4 firmware and freezas optimized kernel. During this I lost my bootanimation...Andy peeing on apple. Is there a zip or something to get it back. I did a search and it lead me to the note 2 thread, but their method seemed a bit more than what I'm comfortable with. Plus not sure if it would be compatible.

Edit: sorry guys I didn't search hard enough...sorry I found it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
For future reference, you can pull the boot animation from any rom you want, just grab it from romZip/system/media/bootanimation.zip and then place that zip at /system/media and reboot

Then profit ;)

No disrespect to any Dev, just my opinion. I am currently running Frezza's stock but I can't find any flashable mods such as a camera with no shutter sound and the other popular mods.

Almost everything that works on MD1 works on MD4

Also if you search a little the camera is available here in this thread somewhere as a standalone flashable. You can also just pull it out of TPR rom. Or as I said flash TPR and use morphology and the zips in post 2 to remove all theming which really isn't much. It took me about 3 minutes to make my wife's TPR look bone stock.

I just want to clarify something regarding my previous posts about my battery life. I get better battery life with this ROM than I have with any other ROM I have installed. I was hoping to tweak it so I could get about 3 days life on 1 charge. I go camping a lot so that would be very useful to me. I do get close to 2 days on it now so I'm more than happy with that. I'm thinking about getting a zero lemon battery(I think that's what it's called?) For camping. TPR is by far the best Rom this phone has ever seen IMO! Thanks Kenny for sharing this amazing ROM with The People!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] iamikon:
Two days on a normal battery? Man you are doing it right. I get about 18hrs a charge but I'm a heavy user testing flashing tweaking etc.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hdb15:
On a normal day I'm not a heavy user. There are times I tend to use heavy but it's just because I'm trying different things and flashing a lot and I've got about 5 hours screen on time. With normal use I've only got about 2 hours screen on time and with that I get close to 2 days with one charge. I'm usually on Wi-Fi most of the time too, so that does make a difference.
