thanks, is it the same zip name? or just not uploaded yet?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] troc240:
Different zip name in OP, newest dated 12/6...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] chispa9:
How is the battery life on this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mystikalrush:
Wow not too bad of a ROM already, only thing that I can honestly tell that doesn't work is the camera, all else seems good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dscblu:
Can we dirty flash the update or do we have to wipe everything?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AegonTheDragon:
So titanium backup doesn't work... Is my stuff gone forever or will it come back if i flash a new ROM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] billypoke:
If your backups are on the external sd card, that's why

Sent from my miui-ified Galaxy S3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AegonTheDragon:
They're not, I can see all my backups in SD card 0 but not in the actual app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jpi.islas:
titanium is probably not yet compatible with 4.2... probably still looking in the old location.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] billypoke:
Make sure that on the main screen of the app that the backup directory points to that folder. If it doesn't you can change it in the preferences

Sent from my miui-ified Galaxy S3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] CrucialBT:
Make sure that TiBu is pointing to the correct directory. It's probably looking to the default and since everything was moved into the 0 directory it doesn't see it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AegonTheDragon:
Alright fixed it, the problem was that it was in another folder.

Anyway has anyone tried listening to music? Mine won't play anything, videos still work though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dscblu:
Music don't work for me either and with the 0 issue in the internal SD open 0 and the top of the next directory has another 0 in there is all your stuff
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jo_blow421:
Seems like mount extsd now works but it isn't showing that there is anything saved to it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] atc3030:
To the OP:

I sent you a pm, but just incase I am not the only one inquiring about this. Would you be able to tell us what you had to do to make this boot? I have been working with the mr1-staging branch trying to make this boot but have had no such luck. Again, awesome work on getting this to work. Thanks.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sdana:
No Sound

Anyone else have no options for ringtones? I checked the system folder and all the ringtones are in there, but when I go to choose a tone my only option is "silent". I can't figure out what the problem is. Had to flash back to cm 10.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jr313:
No problem switching ringtones nor notification sounds. I'm luvn this ROM so far can't wait for the camera to be available but its gna be my DD. Thank you for sharing with us!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ryan1977:
Saw over on rootz , someone was having same problem on bmcs 4.2 build. I think a wipe and reinstall ROM, then a couple reboots fixed it though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jpi.islas:
everything aside from camera works great for me so far
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] djj624:
So restoring a backup is not a problem anymore?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AegonTheDragon:
Well I can't listen to music... but that may just be a problem with the SDcard folders. Also MMS doesn't work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jpi.islas:
I'm listening to music on mine just fine... using play music, mms also working. are you using the latest modem? the only problems I've had are camera and storage... but root explorer seems too see external sd just fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AegonTheDragon:
Nope, not using the latest modem. I don't even know what a modem is. (yep I'm a noob :D)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jpi.islas:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/34053-of...zon-sgs3-sch-i535-odin-or-recovery-flashable/

k3 seems to work pretty well... gps locks almost instantly and no mms problems for me. I'm not sure how big of a difference the rpm makes, but i flashed that as well.

http://goo.im/devs/invisiblek/i535/rpm
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AegonTheDragon:
Alright, I will try flashing that later. Do you think it will actually fix the mms? I only had the problem when I flashed this ROM.

Also my phone is the I535VRLHE version, do I have to download that one or just the latest one?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jpi.islas:
it's hard to say since i haven't tried both ways... but i haven't had any problems at all, so chances are good

also, some people had problems flashing the modem in cwm, but it flashes fine in twrp.

latest one should be all you need.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AegonTheDragon:
Alright thanks for everything. :) Two more things, where do I get twrp, and I'm a bit confused about backups/nandroids, if I do a backup when I get twrp can it be on a custom ROM or do the backups have to be on the stock TW ROM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jpi.islas:
no problem, to get twrp download goomanager from the market, launch it, hit the menu key, and select install open recovery. you can use it on any ROM... but i don't think you can restore your old cwm backups with it... you'll have to take new ones.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AegonTheDragon:
That's fine, I just wanted to have a backup available. So when I install twrp it will just replace CWM and that's all I have to do right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jpi.islas:
yup, that's it... and if you need to get back to cwm just download rom manager and flash back to it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Josolanes:
I didn't expect much but this fixed a couple issues I was having. I had the J1 band before and had the 'activation required' every startup and long SMS that became MMS sent well but picture messages wouldn't. Flashed the k3 modem and it fixed both of these issues for me, literally next start after testing the others before hand
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] digitalsynner85:
i'm using the k3 as well, i'm still getting data drops and whatnot, but i don't think this is based off of the 12/6 build where they changed how APNs were configured and other changes to optimize connection, so the data drops are still there and noticeable too

after running this rom all day and playing with a bunch of settings, here's what i noticed, and I know some are already known

1) obviously camera is broken, and not just in stock camera app...its broken in every single camera app i've tried (camera360, camera zoom fx, paper camera, etc)

2) nfc is broken, but not in the sense that if you enable it, it stays broken, it acts like it wants to enable but after it can't, it just times out and toggles itself off

3) toggles work magnificently

4) mms works depending on which modem you're on

5) the camera included in the 4.2 gapps in the OP doesn't include photosphere ability, so you'll have to flash another 4.2 camera over and delete the old camera if you want that functionality

6) google now works a little better than before

7) it runs a lot smoother than CM10

8) battery life seems to be better, but that's all based off of me just running stock w/ few apps installed and left installed (xda, pandora, facebook), so battery life is gonna vary per person

9) my gallery notices all my images that were on my device and sd card, and all file managers see internal and external cards

edit: 10) the way the launcher setting handles the sizing of the grid is off, it's not maximizing the entire screen, for instance, i have it set for 7 rows 4 columns which before on CM10 made everything look good, but on here, it seems to leave a lot of empty space at the top and bottom, yet theres no vertical padding enabled

11) no way to change lock screen wallpaper individually of homescreen wallpaper that i've noticed

12) can't add/edit lockscreen wheel shortcuts

13) chrome force closes constantly
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] woolbeo:
NFC is working fine for me, but it is the opposite of most people's phone in that regard, i.e. It only works with the JB NFC binaries. FWIW, I am running LK1 modem + rpm and the last TW rom I ran was LK1 based too. I plan on flashing LK3 modem and rpm
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] digitalsynner85:
can you link a flashable jb nfc binary for me to test out?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] woolbeo:
From what I understand this rom is already using them. CM10 did for a few days but then reverted since it broke NFC for most people.

There are flashable ICS NFC binaries in the unofficial CM10 fix thread.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] digitalsynner85:
kk thanks, only other idea if that doesn't work is to flash the last version of synergy that was ics which i think was r72 and then flash back to here and see if that does the trick
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] digitalsynner85:
This is what I meant by real estate not being utilized fully when using a 7 row 4 column grid size

Gotta get some nsfw images for backgrounds now lolol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BlueCross:
The modem has nothing to do with GPS or MMS. Neither does rpm. :banghead:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jpi.islas:
weird... seems to have helped a few people.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kidhudi:
potentially dumb question. after i flash back to a 4.1. rom is it safe to delete the folder labled "0" .

**** let the "newbie" flaming begin****
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] billypoke:
Only if you've moved the contents of it back to the internal sd card. That folder contains all the files that were on there before you moved to 4.2

Sent from my miui-ified Galaxy S3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TXI Kaze:
Since WiFi can be used to get a stronger lock and the modem does kinda relate to WiFi, I guess you can say it does :P. I agree with the part about MMS, though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PureLife90:
Good enough to use as a daily driver yet?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aeroevan:
If you don't need a camera, I've been using it every day since my post :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jpi.islas:
i agree, small things that don't work yet, but all major things work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PureLife90:
Is there a camera alternative then? I use camera a lot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] digitalsynner85:
No, no camera alternatives At all..... I had stated that no matter what I did, camera is just broken period
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Josolanes:
So I decided to take a chance and use the KT747 kernel (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1853816) with this rom

At first I flashed the TW version (as I forgot that's what I had on my phone before) and of course just got boot loops lol, but reflashed the rom (dirty flash) and had it up and running without issue again after that mistake

As for flashing the AOSP KT747 kernel with this rom (for 4.1.X of course), I do not recommend it. I gave it a shot and it just goes to download mode now, will odin back when I get home. Figured I could just get out of it again via cwm but power+vol down+home just takes me to:

"Warning!!

A custom OS can cause critical problems in phone and installed applications.

If you want to download a custom OS, press the volume up key.

Otherwise, press the volume down key to cancel."

Volume up takes me to download mode...fuuu lol

Unless someone has any ideas to get out of this without a computer but it looks like I've got a date with odin tonight now -_-. I knew there was a chance this would happen so not upset at all just think it's somewhat funny

EDIT: as jpi.islas pointed out in the next post, vol up + power + home gets you to CWM recovery, vol down gets you to download mode. All fixed now :D. Thanks jpi.islas!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jpi.islas:
you should be holding volume up key, that boots you into recovery, volume down boots you into download.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Josolanes:
Doh!

Thanks that was almost too simple :silly:

And phone's running again! :)

Either way, definitely confirmed that a 4.1.X kernel won't work with 4.2 haha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hippoman13:
Is it noticeably smoother than 4.1.1? Google touted smoother scrolling and browser performance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] digitalsynner85:
I noticed a much smoother experience with it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Josolanes:
Same here. I'm using it as a daily driver in hopes of the camera being fixed soonish (I don't use it a lot really). It's pretty stable overall though, haven't had any unusual crashes really
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jpi.islas:
i agree, it feels like it preforms much better. aside from known bugs it's also pretty stable.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TXI Kaze:
This. I still noticed some lag on 4.1 but this makes android completely polished. Only bug I've had is screen flickering.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hippoman13:
Thanks for all of the responses, I'm still running 4.1.2 (cm10) and the common slowdowns are very disappointing... Can't wait for a stable cm10.1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] juremy:
Loving this..seems better than cm10 (minus the camera)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] what be up:
Does anyone experience an echo when in a phone call? (the other person who is listening to you)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jpi.islas:

Hm.. Ok, I'll try re flashing
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ryan1977:
Do the lockscreen widgets the work on this? I can't seem to get a them to the work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] digitalsynner85:
Yeah they're working for me, just wish there was an ability to add extra widgets, like for go sms
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ryan1977:
I only have like 5 to choose from and list won't scroll
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TechSavvy2:
Slowdowns? On cm10? I have none. If those disappoint you, then I'd sway in a different direction for a while. While 10.1 is beyond a shadow of a doubt much smoother than 10, its way more buggy. Probably will be for a while. I think many (myself included) have placebo effect from the rediculously cool features of 4.2, lol.

But for me....as soon as camera is fixed, it'll be my new dd. I need camera, I'd fail some classes without it, ;);) lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hippoman13:
That's odd, I had installed this (cm10.1) yesterday and i still receive slow downs... I'm pretty sure it's not caused by my installation; I know what I'm doing. It's possible I have bad hardware... :thumbdown:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jpi.islas:
any chance we can get an updated build? if you wouldn't mind sharing how you got this building I'd be willing to help keep a nightly build going.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Secretwar1:
I must say, very impressive for such an early build, running very very smooth, best I've seen my s3 run so far, 4g is mostly solid, not quite as good as stock... 3g is really iffy as always (which from what I've gathered will be the case until we get an actual jellybean ota ) but other then that and the camera, this is really great! Great work!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mds96:
If you go to the dev section on goo.im and find aeroevan you will find more builds. The last time I looked, 12/9 was the latest. He may not be posting the new builds because not much has changed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jpi.islas:
there are actually quite a few changes... lock screen shortcuts, mark text unread, and clear all on recent apps are a few i noticed right away. maybe others i haven't noticed yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shawnten:
if ther a way to get wifi tether working
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shawnten:
i love this rom runs good but i had no idea how much i used my camera. lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jo_blow421:
I think it killed my ext sd because I just got a brand new 64g sd that worked great and now can't even be formatted from the phone. Other than that it's pretty stable and runs well. The lack of camera is kind of upsetting but is to be expected in these early builds.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WolfsFang:
When the camera gets a fix i shall hop on this asap.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Josolanes:
Its 4.2.1 yep, that's what my phones Aboht menu says :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jpi.islas:
looks like invisiblek has a build on goo.im from the 10th that fixed external storage.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wrippel82:
I noticed that OP has a build from today (13th) on goo.im anyone snatch that and see whats fixed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ryan1977:

Did you use CWM 6.0.1.9 and 11/30 gapps?

---------- Post added at 04:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:15 PM ----------

It amazes me that 50 users have DL'D the 12/13 and only a couple people have posted their experiences! :/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] funnyperson1:
It probably didn't wipe your sd card. Check your card for a folder named 0. The files get moved there because of the multi user feature in 4.2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mds96:
Booted up fine for me, but sorry guys, still no camera. That's as far as my tests go cause it's the only thing keeping me from a 4.2.1 ROM being my DD! Thanks for making these for us aeroevan!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mpetruzz:
Ok the files are in a folder labeled 0. I'm assuming that I just need to copy them back over so they're accessible??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mds96:
There are new gapps out if anyone didn't know. 12/12 and they fix the Google Chrome fc issues. They didn't help with camera though :/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TXI Kaze:
Why would they? Gapps doesn't relate to the camera lok
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sweeds:
Can anyone confirm properly functioning Group MMS? I heard AOSP 4.2 might fix it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mds96:
Lol wasn't really thinkin when I posted that. Too use to the KDH gapps packages I flashed on 4.1.2 roms and TW to have the 4.2 camera and gallery, haha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PoLoMoTo:
No, you should leave them there, they're perfectly accessible there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] swirly05:
Unless you have a back up on your external, it won't be there
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AegonTheDragon:
So has anyone tried any custom kernels?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] swirly05:
Yes and don't do it! Won't work,I tried em all

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] swimdude1120:
I tried 12/13 and while the camera still does not work it is amazingly fluid and my nfc works, as apposed to 4.1.2 based cm10. Took a logcat when I was playing around with the rom. Specifically the camera.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Deliquified:
Tried to install this with the latest cwm recovery (6.0.1.9) and it kept throwing out status 7 errors.. I'll try to re download and try again. Not sure why it's failing.

Ya,I saw it when I used to for a couple of days as well

Try using twrp, it's much easier to use and maybe it'll work, you can flash it off of goomanager

Technically, yes, eventually we will have a camera fix

Where you hear we might have a camera fix? That is the only thing holding me back from cm10.1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goldsmitht:
I'm using twrp 2.3.2.3, if I flash 10.1, will I still be able to ref lash my nan droids? Or is the file 0 still causing me to have to re-copy my sdcard back over?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] swirly05:
Correct you wont be able to flash your backups
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goldsmitht:
So how is everyone able to flash back? Would think the nandroid is there somewhere.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] swirly05:
Iv been asking that for the longest...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goldsmitht:
Make sure your boot loader is unlocked too. Otherwise you will error out

If you used current ezunlock from market there is supposed to be a problem with it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mike216:
Update to the newest recovery. If your recovery doesn't stick then unlock your bootloader
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tanpatnode:
Thanks! I figured it out, it's the CWM Touch that screws it up, no idea why but that's what it was.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tonu42:
Use TWRp and you will never see one of those errors again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] EGill42:
I got CM10.1 up and running. I still have GPS locks with this rom, but it is not like I am going backwards at this point. I simple re-pointing of titanium backup, and my phone is as good as new. I am very surprised that it feels more fluid than CM10 since I thought that was fast.

Does anyone know where developer options are now?

I am hesitant to use TWRp because I have been using CWM since literally the beginning of time (Droid 1), is it just as easy to use? Anything that is better on it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] digitalsynner85:
Check goomanager

app to see updates

I just switched from cwm to twrp..... I love it, but that's a personal preference..... It just feels easier to use
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AegonTheDragon:
The functions are the same but everything is just so much easier to do. It's all touch,you get a battery percentage, all wipe options are in the same place. It's just better.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] digitalsynner85:
this ^^^

also, you can fully wipe internal and external in less than 2 seconds because you have the options right there in the wipe section...not to mention zip queuing to flash all your stuff at one time instead of one by one, you can easily navigate through your SD card to find your zips instead of stumbling like in cwm, and i've attempted to flash a rom just recently and it gave me an error while i was on CWM which prompted me to switch to TWRP and i flashed the same zip file and it worked fine
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] roscoe08:
Takeing it that the camera is still broken? Just wanna make sure before I flash
