You misunerstood idea of reflashing - what I meant was not reflashing rom, but kernel. :) And here must appear additional statement - fix described below matches only the situation when you have

custom

kernel (f.e. boeffla, archikernel, devil, etc..), not the stock one which comes with neatrom. To sum up:

#1 if you have currently neatrom stock kernel & you're facing camera related issues - sorry, there's nothing I can do here

#2 but if you have currently custom kernel then:

- reflash neatrom without any wipes, just change kernel in the aroma to the stock one,

- reboot system, open camera app, take a picture to see if everything is OK,

- boot again into CWM,

- flash custom kernel you want, reboot system, open camera app - it should be working like a charm now :good:

It may help in case third party apps related bugs with camera functions, but it may also not. Keep it in mind, please. :) That's the whole magic around the samsung exynos totally code-closed devices. Crap, crap & once again next time don't pick up samsung. :D

[Galaxy S III Android Development] insane2103:
in my case, i just have neatrom 7.9, installed the extra lite rom, and I just chose some apps that I wanted, I havent touched nor "kernel" nor any other setting like modem.

kinda installed it on the default settings.

and the camera bug is RANDOM, as stated, I took 3 pictures and BOOM, later at night, I tested taking 100+ pictures and NOTHING, using all the filters, scenes, wifi on, wifi off, 3g on, 3g off, portrait, phone standing, flash on, flash off, flash auto, internal memory, sdcard... nothing...

the only thing was that, my phone was on for a few days (dont no how long since it turned off), and the tests were in the same day as a rebooted.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
As I said - when it comes to camera related bugs appearing with stock kernel we're almost unable to fix them.

I mean, hey, you can switch the instructions given by me above & flash now some custom kernel to see if it helps, but the chance it would solve your problem is likely the same as Polish national soccer team will win next World Championship. ;)

Welcome to the samsung world full of unpredictable things.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
Stock based ROMs should be fine with camera I would have thought, as proprietary blobs stay intact? Never had camera issues with any other version of neat rom, in fairly sure it's not coincidental as I take hundreds of photos a month.

Did people complaining of camera issue also have no issues prior to the release of 7.9?

---------- Post added at 08:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:28 PM ----------

malachow, it´s a shame, we don´t have HTC in Brazil, every single website on the internet said that "s3 was the best android phone ever", so I bought it, and regret it. I had the sleep of death, they fixed it by changing the mobo, but i was felt this phone very laggie, now may battery is not working anymore, I got a lousy 10hs yesterday using energy saver (the stock one)...

im waiting for the new nexus release, or even, maybe, the new moto x.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
If I were you I would flash via Odin stock firmware & then try with custom world again by flashing CWM & Neat. It's the only solution I'm able to give right now after issues reported by you.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sargos76:
saying its the worst with out even try it's easy...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] musmax:
ok, ok, I do not know what it is, I do not know how to do it and do not want to know.

Thank you.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] insane2103:
so... i was using stock, 4.3 and all, this was right after I got the phone back from service (the mobo change), then I tried CM 11 (with the windows installer app), by doing this, I got CWM, I tried lots of builds, I tried, in this order: PA, SLIMKAT and neat rom, I was surprised with the bug on a stock rom.

I´ll keep testing this rom, it happened only once.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
So hey, you should still consider yourself as a lucky person anyway due to the lack of camera bugs in those previous AOSP roms you had flashed. ;) All in all it looks like you don't have this 'bad' handset, one bug in neatrom means nothing or at least says *your device isn't affected in any way by manufactor* (yet :p) & only reminds about this very random issues appearing rarely which we have to face from time to time. Once again - it's all about this crappy exynos without proper open documentation.

If bug will be present again - report back. We're staying in touch.

P.S. Please do place quotes above your post, not under, my eyes bleed. :) :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] insane2103:
dont bleed man, and sorry, I had the bug in ALL of the AOSP ROMs (I stated this in my previous post I think), and I was very surprised in having it on a stock based rom (I dont want to fall back to samsung stock, which sux).

i´ll keep you posted.

One thing I noticed after I flashed this is I now have 2 internet icons. I can't uninstall 1 of them so I've just hidden it instead.

Any chance of adding screenshot to the device options? (the shutdown/restart screen)

2 last questions

I can't use gravity box module with this rom as it causes problems. How can I change the colour of the fonts in the status bar as I did used to use gravity box

I always use titanium as my backup when switching roms. What restore option do I use though when I've flashed my new rom?

The reason i ask is I've had roms freeze when restoring

Cheers guys
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sargos76:
Negative man,gravity box works 100% with this rom i use it :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
1. No metter how well gravity box works for some users I would definitely recommend to forget abou this tool as it's made for pure AOSP, not touchwiz based roms & it's reportedly compatible in ~50%. It is stated in its OP thread in XDA. Seriously, as I had written before - xposed modules are too powerful things to use them without proper dev permission and well known truth about incompability. The far more better choice would be Wanam Xposed in which settings you can change that color afaik.

2. Not sure, but here comes from me similiar few cents as in point 1. - restoring app data is one of the most issues-causing thing. It's just begging for problems. :)

These are only my few cents based on year experience with this device - the final decision is obviously yours.

Regards

---------- Post added at 05:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:40 AM ----------

..because you didn't choose in aroma to install additionally note 3 browser which would create second looking-the-same internet icon as stock one. That's whole sicret. :) Anyway, it's not any bug/issue/problem.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mike710_0:
Incorrect my friend! Try turning your volume up for notifications using the volume keys. Bet you can't!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sargos76:
after asking several times and nobody as answered or pointed to i managed to wakeup the screen with gravity box and it works great as all other tweaks that i use from it, the ones i use work flawlessly
[Galaxy S III Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
I have no issue with gravity box either, but I would not be surprised if there are a couple of tweaks that have detrimental affects, so it seems your requirements, like my own, do not touch the bad ones :)

What rom did you have before you had flashed neatrom? And what

stock rom you were running last time? Have you tried ariza patch in the past? Is your imei correct currently?

There are too many questions & entries which could possibly mess up your efs. Answer it as precise as you can and maybe we will figure out how to help you.

In the meantime please do also come across this important ref about IMEI/efs:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] pedjasmek:
From my experience, you have two choices:

1. Flash stock patched kernel ( or stock repacked with init.d script or only boefla) and patched modem ( this is what I am using ) or

2.You can take your device to the service where you can get working,non rooted device, root it again,flash NeatRom but you skip modem flashing

Either way, from that point on, you always need to skip modem flashing during the installation or you will encounter the same issue
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sargos76:
The first option is READ,READ,READ and READ AGAIN,then after understand it all flash the software,this is the main problem of all,i had some experience from mtk devices and xperia but before i flash my S3 for the first time i read several threads including this one 2 times and then with just a few doubts we all have ones :) then i flash neat rom 7.8 im now with 7.9 and all runs smooth :) read guys thats the best advice i can give so we can help each others,and thanks to all in this thread :good:

Hey buddy :)

Honestly speaking, buying this phone is more~less huge waste of money. It was made especially for hipsters looking for an iPhone in terms of screen size, metal body and.. Yes, and what else? Alpha unfortunetely has very mid-range specs for a price suggesting it's a premium phone. Pure marketing. I wouldn't go for that.

What's more from me - don't buy again crappy samsung device with so source-closed policy (so called "Knox" :p).

If I were you and I were to buy a device right now I would definitely consider this "flagship killer" OnePlus One (look, it literally costs a half, or even less, of Alpha's price with S801, 3GB ram & 3100mah on the board lol) or at least any xperia devices (Z3/Z3 compact) as sony has a fine privacy about sharing its devices' sources. Imagine that AOSP roms for xperias provide better battery life than stock roms - it sounds unbelievable for us, galaxy-crap users, right? :D

That was only few cents from me, I keep fingers crossed for your best choice. :)

Ah, and the last thing if anyone were to ask.. Yeah, personally I'm replacing my S3 as soon as new ARMv8 (64bit) comes out. So, Nexus 6/OnePlus One 2/Xperia Z4/LG G4. *hey santa clous, I've been really polite & helpful this year, go ask neat family if you don't believe me!* :D

Hey dude,

Few more thoughts after coffea time..

I know how much you are into Neat Family so in case you really would like to have this masterpiece in the future the best device currently (once again - only regarding the fact of NeatROM presence & your love for samsung) is undoubtedly Galaxy S5. Additional pro over its rival Alpha is price - S5 costs 3/4 price (or even less?) of Alpha with far better specs and NeatROM on the board possibility.. :)

Forgetting just for a while about all advices given above one conclusion seems to be very clear - no metter what phone will you choose, buying an Alpha model is pointless for a NeatROM supporter like you, man who literally can make every thing flashable :D :silly: :laugh:

Think of it once again & don't forget to let us know about your new child. :)

Cheers!

Isn't OnePlus One available in original only by invite? I see it ono oppomart for 379$, but, it comes with ColorOS, but, it has the same specs but many call it chinese version and say that back material is not 'babyskin' as OnePlus calls it.

Is this a fake, a replica, or just a 1+1 with ColorOS (easy changeable).

And, how the hell can oppomart get so many 1+1 if they're not an official dealer haha.
