For the sake of full disclosure I'm not looking for a solution just sharing issues I found, thanks for the info though.

I ended up going back to a touch wiz ROM, the GVoice issue was a deal breaker for me.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] BigDogPooh:
It's fixed in the newest release which I will be uploading shortly...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] p3rljam:
Awesome hs1333a!

All backed up and ready to give it a try.

Thanks!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] pcriz:
May have to update the nandroid I kept, can I dirty flash over the previous version?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] saotua:
Awesome. Thanks for still porting for us. I'm gonna backing up sand get ready <3
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] BigDogPooh:
*****Update is ready*****

Check out OP....

Any issues let me know...

Runs great on my ATT so you guys shouldn't have any issues....

I will keep porting this for you guys/gals because in reality the only difference between ATT and tmobile is the build.prop and updater script so its simple once I build the ATT ROM.....
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] theminigame:
Is There an md5 somewhere for this?..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] pcriz:
Do you use GVoice??
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] BigDogPooh:
nope...I never really bothered..

maybe I will look into for future releases..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] theminigame:
No worries just wondering
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] BigDogPooh:
Nope...that one is an issue though..

I think I read somewhere that their was a fix, not sure though
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] pcriz:
Okay, I feel a bit better to know I wasn't fat fingering something. I really think I'm going to go back. Especially considering I probably had 6 voice mails in the last three months.. :crying:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] GhostIsBaked:
So far so good. Haven't encountered any issues with the new build that I had previously :thumbup:

With the exception of certain games not working, which isn't a big deal.

Awesome thanks for the reply

Did anyone else experience the Skype issue? I went back to touchwiz only because Skype was funky on this ROM.

whats up with thread title change, thanks for the rom lol.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] BigDogPooh:
I'm working on getting my user name changed so it matches other forums so I added it temporarily to the title just encase anyone sees this ROM elsewhere they know its from the same guy...

working very good, so much better than version .7

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] claucXC:
I'm not able to see the contents of my external sd card when connected to my pc. It shows both internal and external drive folders but the external has no contents. I can see everything on the external sd on the phone, just not when on the pc. Did a nandroid back to my previous rom and the pc could see both drives and contents. Anyone else experience this?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] BigDogPooh:
I will have to check it out.. I never tried it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] XeoNoX:
my sdcard (internal and external) shows/loads/reads fine on mine using v.28, do note that as of Jellybean Samsung no longer mounts the sdcards as a drive (aka " mass storage device "), instead it mounts it in "MTP Mode" u may also need updated Samsung drivers to see it, and make sure your external sdcard is properly formated

aosp keyboard error

I downloaded twice wiped and flashed twice both on twrp and cwm and I still get an aosp keyboard error when 1st loading, any ideas y? I flashed previous build and it worked perfectly.I'm on T-Mobile galaxy s3 , any help would be appreciated
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] puretone:
Known error / mistake. Go into settings & switch your input to another keyboard temporarily, followed by looking on the market for a more suitable keyboard.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] BigDogPooh:
Using twrp I would also wipe system after factory reset and clearing both caches....

If miui had a 10*8 launcher I'd be on it all the time. I love it. It takes a hit on battery as compared to an aosp or twiz build, but the eye candy is impressive and the ui is the best config of android imo. Definitely worth it!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Cakeor314:
Loving the rom, much better than the earlier versions. One question though, does anyone know how to disable the hardware key light? Like the menu and back button, the light really annoys me and I had the option to turn the light off in other roms. Thanks

Try re-downloading the .zip? Possibly didn't get the whole file, i know that's happened to me and re-downloading fixed it.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] chagothegreat:
Cool ROM when installing make sure to do a full wipe, and a system format. If you get the keyboard error.

Only issue I am having is that Google voice is not working properly

Anyone have an answer to this?

For some reason when I install this I get a bunch of FC's main one being aosp keyboard. Tried a different download and same thing. What am I missing.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] theminigame:
www.phandroid.com/2013/01/09/miui-10-million-downloads/

Thought I would post this, Read towards the bottom of the article which is the main purpose I'm posting this..

there's a link for the theme's site there (read it and you'll understand what I'm talking about)

Even though the theme is pretty.. Feminine (which some might not like), still worth a Download for the cause. I found it in the theme app as well, And it's free.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] xfusejc:
This might be an odd one, but I'm hoping maybe someone can help me "fix it".

Everything works when I apply a theme, and everything gets themed, but the icon for the Camera app NEVER changes. It's always the stock Jelly Bean camera icon. It gets added a 'box' or a border depending on the style of the icon set, but the icon itself is always stock.

Any one know how to get it to show the icon from the theme?

And even with the default, on the first flash, I get the stock camera icon (not even the GS3 icon).
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] GhostIsBaked:
Did you wipe system before flashing?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] SlakWReX:
Yes I did.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] theminigame:
That's because it's not the camera app that originally comes with miui, it's pulled from cm.. If you install the miui camera app, that one will theme... Since I started flashing miui for this phone the camera app hasn't themed..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] xfusejc:
That explains that. Thank you :)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] rani9990:
You must be flashing the android 4.2 gapps. Those are known to cause keyboard force closes.

3.1.11 is uploading...

Reworked framework a bit to keep it fresh and current...everything running very smooth..

For those wanting a Kernel tweak....I modified Ktoonsez kernel. So far all is running smooth with it and I have found no issues yet. I tested the original Ktoonsez and I would get screen flickering and themes would hang and MiHome would fc. With the modified one I have none of that...

Update..one reboot just occurred after about 5 hours of use..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] garymachete:
Dude that's awesome. I was trying leankernel and ktoonz and both made themes unusable. Thanks brew
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] BigDogPooh:
Still over an hour left for upload to finish. Very slow upstream...

How can we get the 4g icon back ?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] BigDogPooh:
Did you change your apn to lte...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] theminigame:
This rom defaults to the H symbol, I've never had the 4g symbol. Not sure there's even a flashable for it, especially for miui.

And the t mobile version doesn't have lte or an apn for it (that I know of). Pretty sure that's just for att and others...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] XeoNoX:
i agree, if u do a speed test u will notice the speeds are 4g fast for Tmobile wich means its running 4G even though its not showing the icon. i flashed without doing anything to the apn and it worked fine. thanks again BigDogPooh for your time and effort into the port.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] pakakid:
Everytime i go into messaging i keep getting a FC and i did wipe and everything.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ahoslc:
You need to download the latest Tmobile ICS modem and it will fix your issue I and many others have done this and it corrects the issue.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] BigDogPooh:

keyboard FC here too,

And yes, i did use the modified kernal, thinking that's what did it?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] theminigame:
So far so good with the update. No problems with a dirty flash, also on Stock kernel.

Also, Thought I would share this screen.. Don't know who to report typos to, or barely comprehensible English for that matter... but I mostly just thought it was kind of funny (the little notification above the pause button.)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] SlakWReX:
Did you wipe system before flashing?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] BigDogPooh:
LeanKernel Minimalistic Modified

Here is another kernel I modified..

This will let you over clock up to 1720 and you can use the built in cpu governor in toolbox to set it. Nothing fancy but may be a little better for our units the the other one. If you install you may get some screen flicker on boot up, but then that's it. So far its running well....I will keep you posted

LeanKernel modified...

http://www.mediafire.com/?2azzxbfaj87atbi

Thanks to imoyesons for creating it...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] rani9990:
Did you ask for permission before modifying imoyesons kernel? I believe it's not allowed unless permission is given. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] BigDogPooh:
Nope...but I just reached out to him to make sure. I didnt realize it was his original work I thought it was the ops...and nothing was their saying no linking or modding....we will wait and see...

You can remove any icon...if your trying to remove a system app you will need to delete it with TB or a rooted file explorer..as far as it being laggy, i have no problems. Anybody else having any issues with it being "laggy".....

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] theminigame:
Re: MIUI.us 3.1.11 For TMobile Galaxy S-III

Yeah, when I click both iterations of the song, they both play.. I haven't done a search to find duplicates... Just searched folders I thought I would find duplicates in...

Also, i'm having no lag problems, Whatsoever.

*edit, just ran a search with solid explorer, and found no duplicates... The closest to a duplicate I find is the .lrc file for the lyrics of some songs.. But there are only like 1 or 2 songs that have this lyric file and have a duplicate also.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] BigDogPooh:
I'm updating this weekend..wait for the update and when installing that I would do a system wipe along with format and clearing the caches..

Guys I may be discontinuing the port of this due to ChaOS...

Right now this ROM is pretty smooth and MIUI hasn't done any major updates probably due to MIUIV5 so its really not worth the time and investment to port...I'm still thinking about it..

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FMinMI:
Hello all,

I bought my S3 already rooted and unlocked but with the 'stock' rom (I535VRLF2 base / IMM76D.I535VRALG7 build). It has CWM 6.0.0.8 installed, and I locked out OTA updating by freezing FWUpgrade and SDM with Titanium Pro.

Now that JB is out, I would like to upgrade and am wondering the best way to proceed -- restoring my phone to out-of-box condition and then going though the entire rooting/unlocking process OR (if possible) loading the new JB ROM over what I have. Although I have done a lot of messing around with my HP Touchpad and installing of nightlies, I had done ZERO playing with the S3, so I really feel like a novice and was hoping for a thread that would be a step-by-step guide for the first time I do this (I did search but didn't find exactly what I was looking for).

I have no problem in erasing what I currently have on the phone -- in fact I would like to do a complete erase and reinstall of programs now that JB is out (who knows what is lurking in those folders - plus I have been having trouble with wireless tethering).

Can anyone suggest the best way to go? In the end I would like to have JB on my S3 with the 'stock' ROM, unlocked and rooted so that I can use Titanium Pro to freeze bloatware and use wireless tethering for rooted phones.

Thanks and an early Merry Christmas to all!

Frank

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Try Open1your1eyes thread in the dev section, that has everything you need to upgrade to JB. That thread has info on how to flash the Verizon VRBLK3 rom. There's a version that formats your data and a version that leaves your data intact.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FMinMI:
Hi SlimSnoopOS,

Yes, I did find that thread and also one (with a video) that covered rooting and unlocking the stock JB ROM. Can I use the one you mentioned with the ROM that wipes your data and installed CWM (VRBLK3 Bootchain with ClockworkMod Touch Recovery 6.0.1.2) with my phones current state, or do I need to remove the current CWM and lock/unroot it? Or do I unfreeze the update files I froze, do the OTA, then do the steps in that thread?That is what is confusing to me. I don't want to brick it.

Thanks

Frank
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
You can install it the way your phone is now. Now that I look at it though, the VRBLK3 rom included is the "no data wipe" version.

Edit: ok, looking back at it, both of his threads only have the "no wipe" version. Since you want to format the internal sd card as well to clear out your excess folders, how about you follow section 5 of DroidStyle's guide in the dev section to reset your firmware to either VRALF2 or VRALG1 then OTA to JB.

Do you care to be rooted/unlocked afterwards?

Double edit: I found a full wipe data version! This wipes your internal and external sd card so backup your data! http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1984436

So, what would you like to do? Be on factory VRBLK3 JB with no root (wipes internal/external)? Be on VRBLK3 JB with root?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FMinMI:
Hi again,

OK. But if I read it correctly, the first two ROMS (downloads 6 and 7) do not keep your data -- I think only 8 (which says NO DATA WIPE) keeps what you currently have. I was thinking of downloading ROM 6 which will give me CWM 6.0.1.2, as that is what I have used before and that is what is currently on the phone.

But here again is where I am confused. I do Step 1 and flash the #6 ROM. Then it says in Step 2 to install a Custom Recovery. And if I want CWM, I need to download and flash download 6. But if I flashed download 6 in step 1, why do I have to do it again? What am I missing?

Also, the ROM is a .tar.md5 file. Do I need to unpack it or does Odin know how to work with that file? I did find the Odin Flash Guide (http://androidfirmwares.net/Guide/Details/9) but wish it was a video...

Frank
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dunderball:
The BEST way to go if you're already rooted on VRLF2 stock is to download OTA Rootkeeper, back up your root, unfreeze fwupgrade and sdm and then take the OTA.

Once the OTA updates your phone, restore root from Rootkeeper, and unlock your bootloader again using E-Z Unlock 1.2 (the .apk is around here somewhere).

With this method, there will be no need to flash, odin, trip any counters, etc.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buhohitr:
Best way without any issue in the future is flash full rom with root injected. So VRBLK3 with root is the best way to go. no wipe version is not recommended, it caused some issues. Just remove your external sdcard then Odin the K3 with root. I recommend the pre-rooted Root66 version from mrRobinson. It identical to stock only with root.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FMinMI:
I would like to end up with a rooted, unlocked JB S3 that has been cleaned up. I don't care what I might lose on the phone -- I can download the apps and music I currently have on it, and any settings I changed in ICS I can then find and change in JB. All contacts/calendar data and phone numbers will come back once I install gmail. And losing my SMS messages are no big deal (I need to clean it up anyway and this is the best way). All my pixs have been moved to my PC.

Thanks for your help!

Frank
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FMinMI:
Hi. Thanks for the suggestion. If I go this route, I assume the OTA will not delete any extra folders, data, etc. If I do a factory reset, will that take care of completely cleaning up the phone? Will CWM be removed? Or does Rootkeeper and E-Z Unlock bring this back?

I would like to end up with my S3 unlocked and rooted, running a 'stock' JB ROM and being able to freeze bloatware/fwupgrade and sdm, but completely cleaned up so no 'residual' programs/files/folders from ICS are messing up JB. Just like on my PC, when I go from one OS version to another, I always do a clean install to pitch the crap and make sure nothing old interferes with the new OS.

Frank

Michigan
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Ahh, perfect! That helps out a lot.

Based on what you're telling me, this is what you need to follow; it's the same link from my double edit. This method formats internal and external sd card AND bumps you up to rooted JB in the process. Use VRBLK3:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1984436
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FMinMI:
Thanks. Your thread looks easy to follow if I go this route. What program is needed to uppack the .7z file? And regarding the 'flash counter', when I booted to download mode, I do see a yellow triangle on that screen (that warns against downloading ROMs). Does this mean I tripped the counter? I never see that triangle any other time (however under status in settings I do see Dvice Sattus as 'modified'). Do I need to do anything before following your steps if indeed the counter has been set?

Frank
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Does your computer not allow you to unzip the file? You should be fine with 7zip, it's free and open source. Once unzipped, the file should already end with ".tar" or ".tar.md5" and Odin will flash it just fine.

Tripping the flash counter is rather irrelevant since you can reset it anytime with Triangle Away. Also,you have to flash a non-Samsung file via Odin to trip the flash counter...which would be like installing CWM or TWRP recovery using Odin. Neither of which are Samsung official, make sense? I think the counter status is actually on the top left once fully in Download. Mode. That prompt you see in download mode is always there, just press volume up to proceed then follow the directions in the link.
