Thanks for putting the effort. Please don't compromise on your light Clean Slate policy. Don't add stuff which will effect the butter smooth performance of this ROM, and if possible please release light and full version of the ROM for users if that is not much of an effort.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] upndwn4par:
Not a problem. The discussion is relevant.

I will look in to that.

The next version of the ROM will be very large (~780 MB download).

But, it will be an Aroma package. That way you can decide exactly what you want to include.

The most minimal possible installation would result in a ~550 MB ROM - crazy fast and smooth.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] matrixzone:
Thanks for your reply. 550mb ROM will be sick and awesome. Please do include the 550mb as lite version of your rom, if that's not a big request
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] louvass:
Very Nice

Nice Rom thank you for your work. This has some nice wallpapers anyway I can get them in a zip, been trying to find them but can't seem to.

Thanks again

What modem is everyone using
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CyaN1de:
Hmmmm....guess I am still used to the size of the S2X roms (just got my SIII last week). I did not realize the roms for the SIII were so much larger.

Sorry bout that... :)

Will still be DLing this rom and giving it a go.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] shawman:
I use UCLH1 seems the best 'round these parts.

Giving it a try can't wait to see what you do with the Aroma installer. I loved AOKP on my S2I777, but it's hard to ween myself off Touchwiz UX and all it's great features, even though I use Nova on top TW is still in the back noticing all my motion gestures.

Suggestions: AOSP Lockscreen? 4.2 Keyboard. That's all I got for now.

EDIT: Why's there all this talk about the ROM being 600mb, is it just me or is the size of the ROM irrelevant.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] alotmoore:
Very nice rom. Fast and smooth. I'm loving the RAZR M Launcher!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] goodtimes50:
I'll second that. I love the stock lockscreen and if there was a way to bring it to TW, that would be brilliant!

---------- Post added at 11:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:30 AM ----------

Couple of questions for the folks using this.

1) Do the 15/23 toggle mods for TW work with this? (see here or here for example)

2) Is anyone using Ktoonsez's kernel for JB TouchWiz? How's it working with this ROM?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 65coupei6:
The ASOP lockscreen & 4.2 keyboard have been posted in another thread thanks to loserskater & enewman17. You can find them here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2034844 You can toggle the TW or ASOP lockscreens under system settings.

As to the other questions.

1.) Yes

2.) Yes, works great.

Great, thanks! Installed the mod and it works great, but is there any way to edit the shortcuts on the AOSP lockscreen?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mis3:
Or you can program long press of menu key in Nova if you use that.

This was the last rom I was on. I had gps issues and it was not from this rom so I had to flash back with odin to get my gps working..
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] matrixzone:
My GPS is working perfectly till date. I used TWRP for flashing this ROM, just follow the steps in OP.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DamageSource:
I have been running your ROM since release and I have to say this is the best ROM I have been on since owning my galaxy 3 months ago and I've been through 15+ ROMs. I have had zero compatibility issues, zero force closes, zero reboots etc. Not one problem what so ever. Just played baseball superstars 2013 for the last 8 hours (lost track of time gotta looove vacation) and I was at 100% battery upon start. I'm only at 74% right now as I post this. I usually would have had to charge almost twice by now. The RAZR launcher is great and the circles widget that comes with it is pure awesome and sharp looking. If you ever come out with a 4.2 ROM you're the one I'm coming to first. Thanks for the hard work and great ROM!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] goodtimes50:
This is my first TouchWiz JB rom so it may just be a new "feature" of TouchWiz, but I get an annoying popup telling me how to clear app defaults every time I select an app for a particular action. For instance, if I click "Share" in an app and then select a web browser to use for the action, I get a popup titled "Clear defaults" that says "Clear default app settings by going to...". Anyone else getting this? Is there a way to disable it?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aaroncal:
I am using kt's kernel and honestly I get better battery life using the kernel that came with the rom

Can you post the TW stock calinder widget and the sMemo app.

Thanks.

seconds or pull battery and re-start the process.

Screenshot shows my recent battery stats with my current set-up with moderate usage.

(no Samsung options installed with Aroma and minimal GApps)

Edit:

Completely forgot to thank oldbbman for testing....thanks!!!

I really like your rom although I lost the csrom options in settings because I flashed the things I need over you rom like aosp lock screen, note 2 camera, stock android camera for the photosphere and the most important the 23 toggle because I really need the data toggle in there! I switch it on and off like 40 times in a day!

I'm telling you all of this because you might use it as a suggestion if you like.

Thank you very much for your work!

Last thing just to know : Samsung calendar widget will only work with touchwiz launcher and no other launcher, right ?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] upndwn4par:
Normally yes. But I made changes that may not allow it to work this time.

Do a nandroid backup and give it a shot. Can't hurt. Worst that will happen is systemui will FC.

If it doesn't work, let me know and I will make it for you.

I will see about adding a data toggle. Not sure about the calendar widget - never tried it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aaroncal:
It works just fine although make sure you install a email client, gallery, google apps etc....because the first try it unistalled them when only choosing the status bar and it took all my widgets off of apex but left my app. Not a big deal at all

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xylos123:
Really really good ROM. I use it for my daily driver. The RAZR m launcher is just fantastic coming over from an atrix HD. One thing thats still kind of annoying is the music apps toggle thats still present when you plug in your headphones. Other than that this would be a 5/5 ROM. Keep up the good work. :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cdjaney:
If you're referring to the notification that comes up in the pulldown menu in the notification bar, that can be turned off by you. Press Menu soft key/system settings/Accessory. You will see the selection at the bottom of that menu. Saw this in another thread. :thumbup:

I am using zooper calender widget, uccw clock widget, system info widget, desktop visualizer for the two large icons, and new century theme from the market...although the theme does not support jellybean and I could not get any response from the dev so I backed it up in titanium backup and moved it to my pc and changed the file extension to a

.zip and pulled the icons that way
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bustervic:
Gave it a quick try, I tried a clean install and a dirty reflash but still couldn't get rid of a green pixel deep strip across the top above the notification bar.

I like the Aroma options though.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] upndwn4par:
I tried it last night and it "worked" for me. I don't use that service, but I was able to watch a TV show trailer. I say "worked" because the service/app seemed kinda weak. Kept telling me that I didn't have enough bandwidth to watch in HD, despite the fact I have 25/25 FiOS service. :confused:

There may be another app conflicting with the Movies app.

Yes, as per the instructions.

You turned on the battery bar.

Go to Settings, CSROM Options, Battery Bar to turn it off.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sg3love:
I am a noob as well but from what i experienced, I don't think you actually put aroma on your phone it is used to customize your ROM when you are updating your current or doing a fresh installation from recovery. Aroma activates as soon as you flash the updated CSROM 1.1..hope I helped if not, forgive me.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Mac1679:
Right, flash the new v1.1 like you would normally, Aroma is built in to the flash. The Aroma installer has you pick your options first, then once you are finished, it will flash the Rom like normal, only it will include the options you chose in Aroma.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Wond3r:
How do we change the lockscreen wallpaper without having to choose one of the built in wallpapers?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rodger-sp:
Love your ROM and the 1.1 is the best yeat.

I was wondering is there a way to incorporate a tranparent notification dropdown to your ROM.

Using the Aroma Installer

This is a quick guide to using the Aroma Installer since this highly customized version may be slightly different from what you have used before.

Looks complicated, but is super easy. And I think you will appreciate the ability to customize your set-up without having to re-install the ROM.

Enjoy!

Installation:

Nandroid backup

Factory reset in recovery if coming from a non-TouchWiz ROM (backup internal SD Card contents first)

Flash in recovery (button or touch)

Aroma installer should start within ~5 seconds

After agreeing to the disclaimer and viewing the changelog, Choose either:

Install or Update ROM - Installs ROM

or

Add or Remove Features - Allows you to add or remove apps, launchers, etc without re-installing the ROM.

________________

Install or Update ROM:

Choose either:

Full Wipe - Clean install wipes system, cache, Dalvik, and app & system data (no media, etc).

or

Update Wipe - Wipes system, cache, Dalvik (for current CSROM users only)

Choose desired options.

If you don't choose a launcher, the TW launcher will be installed.

If you install both AOSP and Samsung email you will get repeated FC's.

You can install both launchers and decide which one to use after boot.

________________

Add or Remove Features:

Be sure to select everything you want included in the ROM, even if it is already installed on your device.

If any given item is not selected, it will either not be installed, or deleted if it is already installed.

________________

Additional Info

If at any point Aroma hangs, hold the power button until device reboots recovery (10-15 seconds).

If install completes and you get a "Status 0" error after pressing "Reboot" in Aroma, just reboot the device.

________________

Current Aroma Install Options:

GApps (13 options)

Samsung apps (7 options)

Widgets (9 options)

Flash Player

Titanium backup

Launchers (2 options)

(each with and without battery icons).

Stock and AOSP email client

Not-So-Great Battery Life

Liking the ROM so far, but getting terrible battery life. I don't push my mail, never leave Wifi on, and have the lowest brightness setting. I use Juice Defender and have the Power Saving mode on.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Mac1679:
You may have a rogue app or a weak cell signal. I leave my wifi on all the time and my battery life on this ROM has been amazing.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Wond3r:
How do you change lock screen wallpaper. I can't choose from my own photos
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] upndwn4par:
Mac1679's suggestions are correct. High LTE usage or a very bright display setting will do it too.

Assuming you are running the stock kernel and modem, I would look in to your apps. One bad app can easily kill your battery life.

I run the stock kernel & modem, and leave bluetooth, wifi, and GPS on all the time. And I have my email accounts set up for maximum sync.

I have not had battery life this good since Gingerbread.

You need to use the Samsung gallery.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 65coupei6:
You need to choose the stock camera in Aroma. If you choose ASOP camera you loose that option.

Quick question...When you click on Bluetooth toggle on dropdown screen....do you get a previously paired devices popup screen? That feature is important to me since there is no autoconnect with the Rom....
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] goodtimes50:
Quick feature request, 15 or 23 toggle mod in ICS blue to go along with the blue status bar icons, preferably with the brightness slider removed (or an option to remove it).

Great rom! Like someone else said, I'm getting the best battery life of any rom I've tried!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] upndwn4par:

Working well for me!

Question though.....is Bluetooth Share app different from regular BT? It seems to be using a lot of battery. I'm not tethering just using a headset.

Thanks for your work!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Mac1679:
Everything on this release is working great. Easily my favorite Rom. IF you're bored and looking for something else to improve on, I will make the request for a (optional) stable AOSP MMS apk with Quick Message. I've somehow managed to get the MMS (4.1.1 version) posted by DeNite! to work. It's not 100% stable, but works well for the most part. I don't remember what Kernel is stock on the CSROM, but at some point I flashed the Ktoonsez Kernel and that improved the stability quite a bit. From what I've gathered the Quick Message feature was added to the 4.1.2 AOSP MMS. I'm guessing that's why I've had stability issues. I have no idea if there can be a stable ASOP MMS apk with QM on a 4.1.1 Rom, but I'll throw it out there if you are looking for another challenge. Or even some more insight as to why it won't work so I can put this pipe dream to bed, one way or the other.

One other request, is notification badges on the Email app. for the Homescreen Launcher.

Thanks for all your hard work!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] upndwn4par:
You only need to have BT turned on for audio. BT tethering is for transferring files (un-check in tethering options).

I am not familiar with AOSP MMS with Quick Message. If you post an apk or tell me the name of a ROM that uses it and I will have a look. The problem could be as simple as you suggested (4.1.1 vs. 4.1.2). Also, loserskater just mentioned that he will be looking in to it soon.

And notification badges for email with the RAZR launcher is on my list (I want it too).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] oldbbman:
No complaints.

All is working fine!
