Actually I'm in the process of rounding people together with the release of kit Kat in my hands I will be putting together some goodness for you guys. Life has been very busy past few months and with the talk of kit Kat I didn't want to make a whole new Rom til this release since it will be the final update for the s3. I can't promise it will be done tomorrow as for we are still hacking up the update looks like you will have to have the Knox boot loader if you want kit Kat so keep watching periodically and will let you guys know either way if were going to move forth.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYSAKZ:
What does or how does the Knox bootloader scenario play out for those who did not take the 4.3 and are still on 4.1.2 android version
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] evo3d6:
Looks like if you want to update you will have to have knoxed up bootloader
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYSAKZ:
They meaning android slash samsung are making it impossible and as about as unenjoyable as an iphone holy moley
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] evo3d6:
Actually the only thing it effects is warranty and most of us don't have one so...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
Dude......how've you been? It's been a while! Good to see you guys are still around!!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] evo3d6:
Yes still around and will probably be seeing more of me around were starting from a scratch base that pretty new still working on base as we speak other then that been very busy and doing good you?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
Not bad....learning more and more everyday! The work you guys did on Goodness was amazing! I just hope Verizon doesn't screw us on this 4.4 update! These S3's are still more than capable!!! I was showing a buddy at work my phone today and he was shocked how my S3 is just so much cooler and faster than his stock S4!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] evo3d6:
The update is coming to you guy no worries insider gave me some good stuff
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikeman45:
That's good to hear. Can't wait to check it out when it's ready. I'm always down for a year run if you need me or if you need any help with anything just hit me up.

Playing around
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] evo3d6:
The game plan after speaking to a few of our wonderful development team I have decided that I have enough support to go ahead and bring some goodness back to life still trying to contact a few. But here it is will be making a sprint version then will make a Verizon version. If all goes well I don't like making promises but already started building. For all that know me I still have my same busy schedule bills must be payed with that said please have patience I will do my best to bring you something.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
Nothing is expected! Everything Is appreciated!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] evo3d6:
Almost got it all together on sprint side may have to port over til I get a official kit Kat release on this side. Will include s5 launcher which supports themes out of the box also working on goodness theme to set over launcher the beauty of doing it this way is if Google updates theme doesn't change still will have to redo the app itself but icons won't change.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] evo3d6:
Looks like I've got to wait til the first then I can leave my contract free and clear still working bugs out had to start from scratch. So the first will be the day will start releasing the fun stuff:beer::D Rom will feature s5 launcher, weather widget, contacts, messaging, browser, gallery, music player (still wip) camera (wip) video player, lockscreen ,full s5 settings, sfinder, quick connect, fully working shealth minus the heart rate monitor its there but not physically on the phone lol s5 downloader, file manager, note3 keyboard with three themes, s5 ui and framework. I'm sure there's a few things I'm missing...so I still have a very busy schedule as most know magic usually happens on the weekends.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hobart!:
Am I seeing this right...a new tw ROM to play with? With S5 stuff? Please say yess?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
This rom hasn't been updated for a long time.... am I missing something here?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
It was stated on the last page that one of their developers was going to make a kit Kat build for Verizon. However, we aren't able to boot a custom rom at the moment without the 4.4 firmware and kernel, so this likely won't happen unless there's a breakthrough.

Maybe Evo has something up his sleeve.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
That was 3 months ago by evo and mikeman45 mentioned something last month about helping out if they needed it

Can you flash this on 4.4 NE1?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
As of right now there's nothing to flash.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrite123:
Aw I read the date as 7/15/14 for a second there. This rom looks awesome though, wish it got an update.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrite123:
I was thinking of kicking the bucket and trying my first 4.1 ROM ever, and was looking at this one. I'm currently on a 4.4.4 ROM with twrp and wondered if the change would be worth it. Anyone currently on Goodness and compared to 4.4.4 and 4.3 how smooth and stable is it?

Oh and would I be able to install the Google now launcher using the apk?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Its been awhile since I was on goodness. Google now may work but more than likely wouldn't work. Goodness was a good rom when it was the newest 4.1 rom and is more than likely still quite stable

Sent from my SCH-I535 using Xparent ICS Tapatalk 2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrite123:
Thanks for the response. Would you recommend switching to this ROM from kitkat? I'm just trying to find a version of android that is stable and doesn't give me random reboots Lol. So far Spirit is holding up but I am curious about the other android versions.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
Just depends on what you want. Research both versions and read through the descriptions of the roms to determine what you want. I really enjoyed 4.1 on my S3, give the rom a shot if you're interested, my absolute favorites were Darthstalker X1 and tkrom, both are 4.1.2.

Nobody can recommend what you should do, it's all up to you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
If it helps at all...in my experience...any of the 4.1.2 TW ROMs were way more stable and bug free compared to 4.3!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrite123:
Well everything was going well until I finished installing Goodness, wiped, and rebooted. Now my phone does absolutely nothing when I press the power button. Solid black screen, no lights, nothing. I remove the battery and power it on again and it vibrates and goes into the same state.

I'm assuming it's firmware or modem related... I was looking for an MD3 modem but could only find the full firmware package. I didn't realize this was going to be so complicated. At least I can still reboot to recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
Did you have stock 4.4 kitkat? If so you bricked your phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrite123:
I was on 4.4.4 Spirit AOSP with TWRP

I tried flashing again and at the end of the install log I saw "E: Unable to mount '/system' "

Issue with root?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
Ahhh.....its all coming back to me now.....the modem doesn't matter, but you need to flash the MF1 firmware I believe!

Edit: Start reading round about here...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=43632378

Oh...and here...if you can't find it anywhere else...

https://www.dropbox.com/s/ag8f3dv9b0mjqsx/d2vzw_VRBMF1_firmware.zip

IIRC.....

Flashing the MF1 firmware will cause issues (camera, torch and some other stuff not working correctly) with the kernel that's included with the ROM, so you need to find another kernel to use. Obviously, you have the usual choices....LeanKernel, DKP, KT747, etc...

Also, you can start reading around post #2245.... Good $hit there!

MB1 firmware just for the hell of it!

https://www.dropbox.com/s/f9oienu53x35bc8/I535VRBMB1_firmware.zip
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrite123:
Good, you just answered a few more questions I had with your edit, haha. I'll probably try both firmwares with multiple kernels to do some testing and then report back lol. Thanks again V-Man
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
Not a problem dude!

And.....one thing to take note of....I believe I suggested this WAYYY back in this thread....but if you just flash the MB1 firmware, everything should work fine out of the box!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tiger505:
Thanks, I tried that using root exp etc and I'm still getting the same message "Couldn't contact voicemail server. Please try again later" popup.

I have Verizon Visual Voicemail apk and the zip and nothing seems to work. Somehow it's just not able to connect with Verizon.

Keep me posted as I have a second S3 that I just swap out my Sim and will try testing if you can find a fix. Meanwhile I'll leave the ROM on my backup S3 (pebble blue) and go back to my white S3 with another ROM! I know call me weird having 2 phones, but I can play more. :cyclops:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] drbveb88:
Hey M,

Sweet, Sweet update!! Running crazy fast.. (with faux kernel and 140 apps)

Question, should I be seeing the sprint network and unkbowns in my phone info?

I'm not complaining, Just curious...Loving the Goodness :thumbup:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jarheadflip:
Hey guys great rom I noticed on network it says sprint and when I reboot my phone number and MIN say unkown. Thanks for all the hard work
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] md4dodge:
I'm sorry man, I'll get it fixed today. Shouldn't be too tough, but lack of sleep makes it that way some times, lol.... Thanks for being patient.. and good thing you got two phones. When I say I got two phones the ol' lady seems to take it wrong. Haha

Glad you guys are enjoying it. The network, Number, and MIN are getting reset after reboot, thus causing mms to break. We are working on this with everything we got!!! Believe me, I wish I knew what caused it, lol. Bugs are being squashed, slowly but surely. All the reports help, so keep it up...

Stay Tuned...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vdub2pt0:
This rom is awesome. Theme is beautiful and it is buttery smooth all around. I am sticking to the original build with the updater because I had a few problems with the most recent build. One suggestion, not sure if you will be able to implement it or not, but I would like the option to get the long press task manager back. The 4/5 click and hold is so spotty for me
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] md4dodge:
play store has an app called longpress home, or something to that affect, that will work for that.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vdub2pt0:
Hmm Can't receive mms if my wifi is turned on. I get the message but it just keeps saying downloading until I turn off Wi-Fi
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] md4dodge:
Everything that's broken with the messaging will get fixed when the MMS issue gets fixed we hope. It should also fix the "network, number, and MIN" under about phone. Don't worry, we're working hard to get it done.

By the way, what kernel are you using?? try the latest lk, and see if that helps. different phones, different results.

I hope it works for you for now. the problem is radio related, so the fix will take care of all, in theory.

Thanks for your results. It helps to know what works for who and so on... :good:

Stay Tuned.....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vdub2pt0:
I wasn't sure if that was related to the other mms issue. I was on 1.1. I just tried 1.4 and it was super choppy, I'm on 1.5 now and everything is running very smooth. Haven't been able to test the mms because I have no way of receiving one ATM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] drbveb88:
Be careful with 1.5. Md4dodge was testing it out for this build and he said it breaks stuff. He still recommends lk1.1.

How about voicemail? Still broken in beta 2m
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] md4dodge:
I hope a clean flash of beta2 will fix the vm issue. I have working vm and have since the first build, but we will see. :fingers-crossed:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] raed81:
I always do clean flash and when I try to call voicemail by long pressing 1 it shows voicemail number missing
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] niv3d:
What does your phone number and MIN read under about phone > status?

What's MIN? I don't see mine????? :confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] raed81:
Unknown
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] md4dodge:
I use *86 and it works great :good:

Everyone's network, number and MIN will show as "unknown" until the MMS issue is fixed.... it's a radio thing... ;)

Wasn't sure if you were serious, but you're on Sprint, so here:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrite123:
I can flash the firmwares using recovery or do I need to use Odin?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
Nope....right in recovery! $weet!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrite123:
Well damnit, I'm hitting all sorts of problems. I flashed the MB1 firmware package, cool, then I flashed the ROM and still saw "E: Unable to mount '/system' "

I was also trying to download leankernel but the "All versions" link in the source thread is dead. TODAY IS JUST NOT MY DAY. Now I'm on a different firmware, still unable to use my phone, and will have to find the right firmware to get back to 4.4 if I can't fix the system mount problem lol...

Actually it keeps saying unable to mount system throughout the install but I think it worked this time. I just rebooted into recovery a second time and I guess the firmware updated something. It installed finally without any system mount errors.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
Good....cuz I already found more reading material in case you were soft bricked...

http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-s3-i535-unbrick-soft-brick-125413/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrite123:
Lol no I'm not soft bricked. It installed and booted up fine with MB1. And good news! Google Launcher works great on 4.1.2. This ROM looks crazy but a few apps I use don't work on this version so I'll be moving back to kitkat when I'm done checking this one out... :(

I really wish this could be updated again :<
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
You and me both!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] niv3d:
Oh I know lol but I just thought it only showed unknown AFTER the reboot?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vdub2pt0:
I have yet to have a problem with 1.5. I'll report back if I do come across something.

Eagerly waiting for the MMS fix! :D

Sorry guys, that part is really hard for me to check because I never have a Rom installed long enough to monitor the battery drain. I suggest, since people are having different results with other kernels, trying that option. Wish I could provide a little more info, but I kinda rely on this input to show me what needs to be implemented. Thank you for your continued patience as we work hard to provide a quality Rom for you.

Stay tuned.....

You need to give me more info than that just that. What have you loaded on phone, did you do a clean install?

I run lk 1.5 with no problems, get great batt life.

If you just installed the rom, this can happen. Go wipe caches and cycling your battery helps with this issue. I get this if my screen time is very low also.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bigtoysrock:
If you have "Walkman" installed also it doubles the sound boost. But if you don't, not sure why its doing that then. Its been toned down in the newest build (7.0.3). But if you have Walkman installed do flash the remove sound boost zip Dodge posted, it will remove the built in boost and not the Walkmans boost. Understand all that lol. If not sorry, talking to a man bout a horse right this second. :D

If memory serves, acid and beats from updater in experimental section causes echo when on a call. So you might want to see bout our Walkman mod. If Dodge don't have it, I'll get it to him to test it first.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] drbveb88:
I would be all over that Walkman mod. Honestly, I install acid seperately and then edit the build prop like there open says and never had a problem with call echo. I always install noozxoide only. Works great. Paired with the goodness mod is almost to loud.
