could you tell me where you got that stock file from?

Also can you You Elaborate more on problem? so I can compare against your fix'd file. The file I used was STOCK Browser (never modified)

on my Cell - I go to to Browser... (upper right bookmarks click)...shows "My Device with 9 lame stock bookmarks" - then below it "shows {my Gmail address}" and 1 folder below it called "Other Bookmarks"

Your file has date of 11-14-2012 (which means, it was de-odex'd then or that was the last time the .apk was zipaligned or MOD'd)

when I compare my Rom's "SecBrowser.apk" against yours, they show the EXACT same file sizes, different dates, and slightly different compression sizes)

My ROM was De-Odexed + Zipaligned on 12-01-2012 (so all my stock untouched files will have that date) (Moding file = newer date)

I noticed of the 15 or so Custom Stock based ROM's I've seen, there is usually 2 or 3 different type files (different sized and different dates)

I 'm pretty sure it has to do with the compression that is used in kitchen file, or program used to De-odex file & Zipalign .apk.

The Stock UNtouched ROM starts as a ODIN type file (and it's in Odex format) so all DE-ODex'd files WILL have different compression size's, dates, etc)

Edit: thanks for post below (i'll look into it)

I pulled the secbrowser.apk from wicked v5 rom so I don't know what they modded in it if anything.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ktmdave7:
I'm trying to find fix for stock email problem: The flashing (or flickering) part is normal (because -it's inverted. meaning black background)

Stock Email files are this set (SecEmail.apk + SecExchange.apk)

to change Email to White background (or normal way), you can edit this file... system\csc\feature.xml (Line # 292 in Notepad++) to show this change...

<CscFeature_Email_UseFixedBgColorAsWhite>true</CscFeature_Email_UseFixedBgColorAsWhite>

Then - Boot into Recovery - Wipe - Cache + Dalvik Cache + Factory Reset

(WARNING - this will Remove all User apps + settings) it's will cause it to do a restart of Rom like right after you first flashed it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] hurtz777:
KTM why don't you use the secEmail and SecExchange apks from wicked V5 rom. They are rock solid.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ktmdave7:
Believe it or not, I added those 2 email files + sec_browser.apk from Wicked v5 ROM (right after your Reply)

Wiped - Cache + Dalvik Cache - and Factory Reset

after reboot, I noticed same email problem. The Email works! (but if you goto Settings - then back out it FC's)

Edit : UPDATE : even after changing 95 of 97 STOCK untouched files from his ROM (still not fix'd)

Edit: at post below I CAN change Wallpaper for Home + lockscreen with any images i have (gallery, or any picture files) WORKS Fine for me!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] hurtz777:
Another bug I found is that you can't change the lockscreen to a custom wallpaper like you can with Wicked V5. Any ideas here?

I've got the Email Fix!

I've got some great NEWS about email Fix... I narrowed it down to Changing back to Stock calendar !

Remove Google Calendar (CalendarProvider.apk & CalendarGoogle.apk)

Add Samsung Calendar Files (SecCalendar_NAmerica.apk & SecCalendarProvider.apk)

I just tested by Extracting ROM version 12-28-2012 files (and changing above files) Fresh instal and it works!

Way to test it is with 12-28-2012 ROM Open Email - Settings - {change any setting} and hit {back key} (and it FC's)

Uploading Now... NEW Complete Rom version 1-1-2013 (with new Fix + I have few CSC Tweaks to add)...Few Hrs Away

Thank you for this rom. Please keep this rom as stock and as simple as possible. If there's a way to limit the mods or keep it optional, as separate downloads, even better. Thanks so much! Please have a donation link, too! :)

BTW, the battery icon acts funny when charging. Is there a way to keep it with the small font or the digital look? I know there's a way to go back to stock. Thanks!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kimbo1986:
I would also like to see it stay stock as possible with just his included build.prop tweaks. There are plenty if flashables for most mods out there, and as far as themeing, nah! Keep it stock!

If you want themes, there are a huge selection with the new Morphology port for tmobile in the themes section, what more can you ask for? Just flash the toggle mod revert thats posted in that post and then flash morphology and you can use any theme they offer.

Bloat your ROM

All, I referred OP and created TRIM or BLOAT your ROM app.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2075993

So here is the deal....

You dont need to TRIM your ROM for sure. Slim ROM is already trimmed and slim. KTM has gone above and beyond to create Slim ROM.

But If you are missing any app in Slim ROM, you may want to this app to install missed apk.

KTM: You may add this into OP, if you like.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DOTC:
Keep it Stock

+1 on keeping this as stock as possible.

Can you make one that doesn't have all the mods done to it? Be nice to have a super slim de-bloated Stock only ROM.

Edit: Also, the reason you are seeing the error in the email with the Calendar is probably because of it being the stock samsung email app, which I hate.. I wish there was a way to include the nexus email app along with the Google calendar.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] rener78:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mutiny:
I guess the OP can mod and tweak his Stock Slim rom as much as he wants now! To those who wants a super stock rom, fully slimmed and debloated, just download the Aroma debloater above and download the stock rooted below.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1991255

The advantage with Stock Slim rom is that whenever you need to reflash the rom, you won't have to debloat each time... that is if you're fine with the mods the OP chose to integrate.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ktmdave7:
I just checked this, I choose "OK" instead of "Add" and it changes Ringtone fine. (not sure Why "Add" FC's)

not sure if Problem with STOCK ROM (or just mine)

Thank You, for posting FINDing!

HELPful info maybe ?

- system\build.prop file (Notepad++ Line # 184) ro.config.ringtone=!Wassuppp.ogg

- system\csc\feature.xml (if you compare STOCK untouched file vs. Mine)

So many Custom Settings + Tweaks changed here (if you switched files -probably fix problem, but you'd loose about 50-70 Great Lines)

I was gonna start a THREAD on CSC Tweaks (later down the road that work on SGS3) it will take lots of Wiping {Cache, Dalvik Cache, Factory Reset} to test them out and is very tedious. Not Something I want to Rush.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tnt8902:
Should we wipe and flash then restore with titanium back up? Or should it be flashed over without wipe?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ktmdave7:
it's good practice, to always Wipe (almost all except External SDCard if you can),

Some could say just Wipe - Cache + Dalvik Cache + System (but only these 3 will keep your older User Apps and Settings)

Changes between Release 1 & 2 will work better with Factory Reset added to above 3

-some Tweaks will NOT work unless "Factory Reset" is used.

TWRP Recovery Wipe Menu...

Cache =...........always ok to wipe (longer next reboot only, adds back apps)

Dalvik Cache = always ok to wipe (longer next reboot only, adds back apps)

Factory Reset = Wipes Data (All User Apps, Settings, etc) (DOESN'T wipe Data\media or Internal SDCard)

System = Wipes ROM (All System Apps + System Files) (you'll need to have another ROM of some kind to flash or Restore "System" option from Backup)

External Storage = DON'T accidentally use this (be careful)

Internal Storage = All Data (All User Apps, Settings, Including Data\media or Internal SDCard)

Format Data =......All Data (All User Apps, Settings, Including Data\media or Internal SDCard)

SD Ext = ok to wipe usually (Installed Apps you move to External SDCard go here)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tnt8902:
I noticed on some roms you were able to flash over. I wiped since I use to flash on my htc dream. So I guess it never hurts.

i wasnt having screen flicker issues, but setting persist.sys.ui.hw to 0 really reduced heat and battery drain caused by surfaceflinger on my phone.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Djspinister:
My thoughts (However small they may be)

KTM,

Just want to say amazing job here man. I think I have tried every ROM there is out on this thing so far, and although I really like a lot of them, your ROM beats every other ROM hands down.

I know benchmarks aren't 'real world' blah blah, but I'm going to post mine anyways. I do a lot of benchmarks on my PC's and unlike most people I do believe in them.

It's like putting your car on a Dyno for me. I just like it.

Battery is perfect and anyone can get even more out of it if they fine tune their governors/clocks.

So I have some Quadrant and Antutu scores, and you are almost 20% higher than anyone else's ROM. As far as my tests go.

Also, I think you should keep everything STOCK as possible. A few things here and there are okay but I think adding themes is pointless as almost every other ROM out there has that, and if someone wants it bad enough it was already posted here that they can do it themselves easy.

Personally, this is my DD and I see no reason to use anything else at this point! Outstanding work! The best part about it is that it just does what you want it to do when you want it to do it.

-DJ
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ktmdave7:
Thanks for Great Review !

I never plan on theme'ing it, or customizing it too much to my liking.

certain mods, I feel are worth it, like 4 way reboot, 5x6 6x6 allows more apps to be seen, inverted apps saves battery.

Hotspot hack is a must.

Another has given me a GPS Mod'd file + init.d tweaks (16 files) (right now there is 0 files in init.d folder).

I'm slow to add and might leave as a Optional Download MOD (if others want to test it).
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jermaine151:
The reason it didn't work was because this rom doesn't have the init.d folder created automatically. Create an /etc/init.d folder with ES file explorer or whatever, re-run odex me and it will work. :)

OP, the reason that it doesn't push your init.d folder is because it won't push empty folders. Throw a place holder file in there and it will work.

Good work on this rom.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ktmdave7:
Your absolutely right, I gave ROM init.d support in Kitchen, but removed "placeholder" file (since it was a dead file) (didn't think about repercussions)... I'll add file in on Release #3 (in a few weeks or so), if i don't have any tweak numbered files inside folder. Thanks for the Finding!

I never had to run the procedure above on any of the 4 phones that I Control with same ROM on them.

So I'm saying it works!

-If MANY need to use fix above (which is same fix mentioned on Post #1 HotSpot fix posted last week),

then I will address it (but until then don't think it's needed to mention).

pretty much everything works to my knowledge, and when I find stuff little off or not working, i'll post on post #1

as mentioned in post #2, (ROM is lacking a File Manager, Music Player, Video Player)

I don't care for their bloated, lame, or, Proprietary apps. so they've been removed.

I use pro version of MX Player 1.7.10 from market.

(Plays ACV1, DIVX, DivX_v3, DivX_v5, FLV, H264, Intel Indeo, MPEG, MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPG, MKV, XVID, WMV9, & more))

A great Music Player app + shows some video formats = PlayerPro Music Player 2.5 from market.

(Plays ACV1, DIVX, DivX_v3, DivX_v5, FLV, H264, MKV, WMV9, & more maybe)) (WON'T play Intel Indeo, MPG, MPEG, MPEG-1, MPEG-2, XVID)

Voice commands... "Voice Search on Google browser" + "Google Now" + "Call {name from contacts}" Works for me!

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ktmdave7:
Not recommended, but if you want to update, I would rename system\app\TitaniumBackupRoot.apk to "TitaniumBackupRoot.apk.old" & Reboot.

File Manager has to have Read-Write permissions ON (can't Touch System files without that permission)

Go to Market, Download Newest version (which will go in User App folder (data\app) from now on)

If you ever wanted older version... uninstall App & Rename system\app one by (Removing xxx.old & reboot)...and You'll be HAPPIER

It's not really a matter of being techy, more a matter of reading and correctly following the directions provided.

Go to the second post and download the removed files, there you can get the stock music player and file manager.

Honestly, just download ES File Explorer, better interface and gives you root access to more easily add the apk's you want. For music, so many to choose from, there are great recommendations in the OP's that are better than the stock player.

In the first post you can get the file to change the battery percentage back to stock so it will not be next to the clock.
