Well talk about bonehead moves. I have been so busy with things outside of XDA that I updated TPR set everything up exactly how I had 3:17 set up but noticed that the phone was running hotter and battery was draining quicker. Had not had the time to break it all down to figure it out. But while sitting at my mom's today thanks to a conversation with [MENTION=1754759]prboy1969[/MENTION] I realized that with this new update the files that have to renamed in system bin do not get automatically renamed. Also learned that with 4.3 we should freeze ELM file. Immediately my phone started to run cooler and battery drain seems to be what I'm accustomed to.

I guess it doesn't matter how long we have done this we all pull a NooB moment.

Have a great day!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
What are the names of those files, gonna look for them on the 4.4 stock rom... And what is this elm file, I see it in 4.4 but no idea what it actually is or does
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
Individual renaming of the following bin Files for battery savings:

[*]gsiff_daemon

[*]mpdecision

[*]qosmgr

[*]smd

[*]smdexe

I have no clue what the ELM file does but that's new since 4.3 and I think it has something to do with Google services

Edit:

This is what I found on ELM agent:

ELM Agent - Emulated Legacy Mount for multi-user support

Have a great day!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
Gotcha qosmgr no longer in 4.4.2, the rest are, for some battery testing!

---------- Post added at 09:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:07 PM ----------

After some searching ELM Agent - Emulated Legacy Mount for multi-user support or enterprise level management... Either way it looks like it's logging for enterprise emails... And frozen... Lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neuton:
May I ask what do you mean by renaming these files? Can you be a bit more specific...sorry about the newb question lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
Navigate to system/bin using a root Explorer, locate those files, rename by putting .bac at the end of them and reboot
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neuton:
Okay cool thank you flastnoles

Okay I did that again ty. The only one I didnt have is qosmr...I take it that comes part of a messaging app? I did not install and third party message apps. Only what kenny provided in his zip
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KennyG123:
Hmmm...my bad....thought we were finally past the need for renaming those. Hard to test on a wifi only device.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neuton:
Kenny the stop the nd8 zip is no good. It either breaks the rom completely or it is breaking the boot sequence. I have tried to install it and after the Samsung Screen it stays black it does not load the rom. It is breaking the rom and root. I had to dirty flash the 3.3 and 3.31 zip again to get back into my phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KennyG123:
Well that is weird. Actually the stop MK3 zip should restore your build. Prop and make it work again... More Samsung trickery?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neuton:
I actually tried that at one time..using the mk3 zip but it didn't do nothing I still had the black screen and it broke root.

Another weird thing is even when you dirty flash back to 3.31 it does not keep your settings the way you had it before. Like all the icons on the desktops are gone that are manually put there by the user and the setting for the download signal, everything has to be turned back off and put back like you had it before.

**** And its weird I didn't get the notification about the update till after I tried to install the nd8 zip...now it says the download is complete click to install the nd8 on my phone :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KennyG123:
Make sure when you flash anything you always choose to fix root in CWM before booting. 4.3 will mess up root Everytime without doing that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neuton:
Yes I did that, but when you run the nd8 zip and still click on yes to fix the su it still breaks it. It just doesnt boot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
FWIW I never renamed them on any 4.3 rom and had great battery life... Maybe not necessary anymore?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neuton:
Since the nd8 zip is not working atm...how do I take this off my phone its the nd8 notification???
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
Touch to install.... It'll fail and then that notification will stay gone for a while...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neuton:
I clicked on it and I got the screen reboot/install and it started to get ready to reboot. I stopped it, if I let it reboot will it still fail or kill my phone? Lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neuton:
By anychance this wouldn't be the update correct?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
It'll reboot and fail, no worries
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KennyG123:
OK...through much testing, black screens and loss of baseband....I FINALLY got a working stop nag for TPR 3.3x.

Stop ND8 Notification nag
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neuton:
Thanks kenny the new zip worked like a charm and also took away my notification :)

I do notice a delay tho from when you see the android logo and the phone boots after clearing caches..or it can just be my phone lol.

I get this "Unfortunately, ContextProvider has stopped." error on boot up and the keyboard stops functioning. And then everything else unfortunately stops too.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KennyG123:
Sounds like you need to do a factory data reset, reboot to recovery, flash ROM, clear cache and dalvik and boot
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] vshah24:
I did bro. I really wanna use ur ROM, especially because of the boot animation. I wanna show it to my friend, who loves apple. Either way, the ROM looks legit. Don't know what more I can do. I even fixed Permissions from Rom Manager (from a different ROM though, it's nearly impossible w/o a functioning keyboard). Only thing I can think of is my Clockwork might be weak. I'm using recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.5-d2spr.img, not the all new Touch Screen one you guys be using. Maybe it just wasn't meant to be :confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KennyG123:
What ROM were you coming from? You should try flashing the stock rooted 4.3 ROM first, make sure all is working on that, then flash this without wiping. Also verify the md5 of the download to make sure it did not get corrupted. Also place it on your internal memory instead of the sd card to eliminate any issues from that.

I still have the original stock battery on my phone...but my question is has any one experienced the battery charging very quickly on the 4.3
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
Yep, even quicker on 4.4.2 also
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neuton:
Thank you flastnoles I thought it was the case. Like I just put the phone to charge like 10mins or less and it went from 29 to 40 quickly lol.

Now I only wish kenny could of brought kitkat over as well...but I guess he might not since he is not on samsung no more lol

What kitkat version is as good or comparable to this rom flast?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
I'm just running stock TW rom right now, rock solid... There's only one custom tw 4.4.2 out right now and I've been following the thread since the beginning, not a single bug reported thus far... Wicked X ROM, check it out if you want to check out 4.4.2, but it does require biting the bullet and taking Knox, but if you plan on upgrading to 4.4.2 tw you'll have to take Knox no matter what, so may as well do it now... And no worries, if you don't like it, you CAN restore your backup of this rom, only thing Knox prevents is being able to downgrade your bootloader (using odin to install a rom version before nd8)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neuton:
I will wait..hopefully someone can have a custom 4.4.2 with out knox :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
Not going to happen, some of our best devs have tried and it's just not happening... If you want 4.4.2 TW you're going to have to take Knox...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neuton:
Damn I want to avoid it lol...but I also dont want to be behind on what the 4.4.2 can bring out of the S3 lol. So if I ever want to go back I need to odin back to 4.1.2?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KennyG123:
No! You cannot odin back to any version once you are on 4.4.x. You will be able to flash older things (I think) but cannot use Odin...you will be stuck with the 4.4 bootloader.

I am not dead and gone...my S3 is still here...Once things are settled with this 4.4 stuff I have some help coming to try and rebase this...but it is not happening until all the dangers are known. My man [MENTION=4342879]flastnoles11[/MENTION] knows his stuff and will guide you the proper paths.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
You can flash/nandroid/modify whatever you want. The only thing Knox effects is no downgrading your firmware and with 4.4+ there is no downgrading the modem either (which is firmware but it really needs a separate mention)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KennyG123:
What that means is do not flash this ROM after upgrading your firmware to ND8 until I pull the modem out of the zip and reupload it. Restore a backup only.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
Well they could flash TPR 3.17 no problem as that does not come with bootloader or modem.

Have a great day!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KennyG123:
Yes.

I am currently uploading the full 3.31 which has the modem removed and the ND8 stop nag built in as well as Wicked ROM settings.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Oh I forgot you had the modem in here, good catch
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KennyG123:
OK here you guys go The People's ROM 3.31

Coming from a fan of a team who produces murderers that's pretty funny
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neuton:
What do you mean kenny? I installed the previous 3.3 which had the mk3 modem, will that affect me now or in the future after you release 4.4?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
No it won't, but if you decide to go to 4.4.2 when he does update (make sure you read up before updating to anything 4.4.2 TW based) and decide you want to return to the mk3 version instead you won't be able to use the mk3 modem (If you want data to work)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neuton:
So you are saying that the nd8 modem might not function well on a 4.3 rom?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
No, I'm saying if you use an nd8 rom from there on out you HAVE to use the nd8 modem from then on out no matter what rom you're on... If you flash back to mk3 or any other build before nd8 you still have to use the nd8 modem because the nd8 bootloader won't let any other modem work... And sadly u to upgrade to nd8 (tw 4.4.2) you have to upgrade your bootloader also
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neuton:
Ahh ok...well I will wait on kenny he said he is not done yet lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KennyG123:
THIS ^^^^^^^^^^^^ I removed the modem for any who now will need to Odin the 4.4 in order to run current 4.4 Touchwiz ROMs. Wants you have the ND8 bootloader and modem on you cannot revert to the MK3 modem or bootloader, but now you can flash 3.31 without worrying about that.

And THIS AGAIN ^^^^^^^^^^

You have a long way to wait for a 4.4. The current 3.31 will keep away the nag at the moment and also allow you to odin the 4.4 stock, root, try [MENTION=4310299]bilgerryan[/MENTION]'s ROM or play with stock and Xposed, then flash 3.31 again if you like.

Hey, anyone (like you, [MENTION=4169204]edfunkycold[/MENTION]) remember the inverted SMS app we used to have here? It gave you the option to select an inverted bubble for the SMS text threads. I'd love to get one of them there apps for the new KK version. I really really hate the stock SMS colors, and the colors to choose from leave much to be desired.

Note to Milky and Flast; my daughters B/F just committed to FSU, where he will major in anesthesiology (and shellfish pilferage). I am relieved, as he was also considering Tennessee and Auburn. I told him under no circumstances would a Tennessee Volunteer be allowed near my daughter, and if he was going to have to go to a school in Alabama I would rather it be FSU than Auburn.

There are also warnings against flashing 4.4 if the bootloader is unlocked.... What is a bootloader and is it unlock if im on the peoples rom?

Sent from my People's ROM GS3.3 powered Galaxy S III.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
Don't know where you seen that but this phone doesn't have a locked bootloader... You just can't flash 4.4.2 with recovery until you either odin the full tar or take the OTA from 4.3....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] george1614:
Ok, let me go back and read that over again, i might be mixing things up. I try to keep up with you guys but its hard with all of these really smart people in these forums

Sent from my People's ROM GS3.3 powered Galaxy S III.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
Really the only two things you need to remember about 4.4 is that the only way to get it is to Odin the tar or take the OTA update from 4.3...the other is that once you get on 4.4 you can't odin back to any build before 4.4, you can still flash any rom you want but if you mess up your phone and need to Odin stock you have to Odin 4.4 and no earlier build
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] george1614:
ok, i knew i read something similar to what I added above. I was looking on how to root 4.4, but this auto root made this clear. see below

UNLOCK BOOTLOADERS

If you have locked bootloaders, flashing one of these will probably brick your device - with the exception of Nexus devices, which will usually automatically "OEM unlock" and wipe your data !

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
Yes, the bootloader stuff doesn't apply to us... And yes, you can flash any rom you want, including this one, you just can't downgrade using ODIN... Once you have 4.4 flashing roms with recovery still works as it always has, you just can't odin md4 or mk3 or any build before nd8...

Good morning people. So, still running my TPR 3.17. For some reason, it has been extremely sluggish. I'm looking for advice on how to attack this. Once again, thanks people.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
First thing to try is wiping cache and dalvik cache in recovery
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KennyG123:
And the second thing is to figure out if you have something syncing or running in the background hogging up your CPU power. Easy answer is always factory data reset and only install apps you need and pay attention to any sync or background process they might use. It could be something simple like a weather app trying to get location and data in a bad signal area.

Hey, guys:

I've been away from the Forum for awhile (somehow, I stopped getting e-mail Update notices...out-of-sight, etc :eek: )

Anyway...I was reading some stuff about 4.4 coming out for us....and I was wondering if anyone has plans to make a People's ROM for 4.4 (notice I am *NOT* asking the "wh" word...only "if"...or whether everyone has moved on to the greener pastures of GS-5, Note3, etc)

I'm also more than a little confused about the numbering scheme...people here keep talking about 3.31....how did we get from 3.17 to 3.31 with nothing in-between? ...From what I can see...all "3.31" has is a couple of Stop-Nag additions....and 3.17 is still offered as the "regular" People's ROM? I read back, and am still lost :confused:

Thanks in advance!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
3.31 is the Android 4.3 updated version of TPR...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] FerretPD:
*erm*....then I'm *really* confused....I have Android 4.3 on my phone....with TPR 3.17....?

(AFAIR, I never got the 3.31 update...I got the StopMK3Notification flash, back in November...but that's all...)

Does that make me the People's version of the Virgin Mary? ...If so...who's the Father? He gots some splainin' to do... :p
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
The Mk3 no nag (which I think is included in 3.17) makes your phone think you're on 4.3 when you're not, it will tell you that you are on 4.3 too. If you're on 3.17 then you're on MD4.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KennyG123:
Yeah...what both these fine gentlemen said!

The no nag for 3.17 makes Sprint think you are on 4.3 in order to not get the nag, when in reality you are on 4.1.2 and MD4. I named the new version 3.3 because TPR for the S3 has always been a 3.x and the .3 signifies 4.3 version...and 3.31 will also include the stop nag for 4.4. There are some difficulties with 4.4 which will require you to Odin your phone to 4.4 stock and then you will be able to flash a 4.4 TW ROM...I don't know if that little kink will ever be worked out. There will probably be a 3.4x for TPR but it will be a little ways down the road...there are rumors of a 4.4.3 update...so may just wait until the smoke clears.

Weird....3G/4G and hotspot issues

Hello All!

I've been running TPR 3.17 for a good while now with little/no issues. Recently my email (stock email app using exchange accounts) started acting up (two exchange accounts were good, one would not send out emails, they would just disappear - not stuck in outbox, not in drafts...just gone! and not sent). I digress...lol...so I decided to upgrade to TR 3.31.

I did a dirty flash, I know, bad Kiefer. It went smoothly and quickly. I added the exchange accounts back and all 3 worked perfectly.

BUT I could not connect to data unless I was using WiFi. If I set the Network to CDMA only I could get Data but if I set it to CDMA/LTE there was no connection. I then did a clean install starting with 3.17 then 3.31 on top. I have the same issue with the CDMA/LTE (no data unless I am on CDMA only) and now when I try to use the Hotspot (TPR hotspot) I get an error message asking me to insert my SIM card! Sim card? Sprint?

HELP! (please)
