Any idea why phone is on so much? I haven't made or received any calls. Or does it fix itself after a few cycles?

Running stock kernel.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
That's unusual. Your second screenshot does not show that much Screen time at all. I'd say, either go to Recents and Clear all the apps from there or reboot. And Oh yeah, try couple of jolts from Fast Reboot.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] LuigiBull23:
Something you did triggered a partial wakelock to the phone. I would force stop it then reboot.

is anyone's photo editor working on the 2.5 update ? i did a clean install of 2.5 update and the photo editor is not working. it just sits there with the loading circle.

Edit: nevermind. wiping cache, davilk and fixing permissions fixed the problem
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
Most likely one of your Google accounts is having trouble syncing. It boils down to poor coding. We can't sync, so we will try forever instead of waiting a few hours then trying again.

Hi there,

I really love this ROM, I tried close to 7 different ones over the past week and I keep coming back to this one. The only problem I am having is this annoying flicker when looking in the gallery. It went away in other ROM's. I am not sure what is going on with it but nothing I have found online to resolve this has helped.

disabling HW overlays does nothing to resolve it. There are not crazy colors appearing or anything of that nature, the gallery images itself just blacks out, menu will show up just fine, top and bottom show up just fine but the picture will go in and out constantly while scrolling through the images.

Also I use Handcent SMS as my messaging application and when I get a text and the quickreply window pops up and I go to type the text box gets completely covered by the keyboard. I have tried a few different keyboards and its all the same.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
As far as the flicker or bands are concerned, they have been known. You may change Kernel to see if that helps. Make sure to do Clean Deploy. As far as Messaging goes, I typically use WhatsApp not Handcent. So can't say for sure. But the Android default SWYPE keyboard seemed to do fine for me. No issues. Same goes for my Gallery.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
There is an option in hand cent to fix that issue, its not the keyboard its the app conflicting with aosp or at least liquid smooth. The fix has been mentioned don't think I put it in the op though. Search around as I'm on mobile and can't help much with this app.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fdc_guy:
Thanks for the info however I was not able to find a resolution in the thread only that it was an issue back on page 105 but never did see a resolution mentioned. I cannot find the option in handcent that would fix this issue.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] PostMeridianLyf:
I seem to be having a bit of an issue with the inverted apps on my t999. Current issue is "Contacts has crashed".

But Ive re-wiped 2.5 and inverted apps about 5 times now with different results each time. Also clean install of 2.5 holds no issues on its own, its only when I flash the inverted apps. So far I have seen "Phone not installed", "acore force closed" and "Contacts has crashed" all on separate occasion. Guess ill try normal gapps and see what happens.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] LuigiBull23:
I'm assuming you're referring to the Aroma based inverted gapps? have you tried my recommended installation procedure from a few posts back?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] PostMeridianLyf:
Yes, every time. Which apps did you select to be inverted? Im thinking there is a problem with inverting the contacts. Installing 2.5 now, curious if I select different apps what the outcome will be.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] IXChicharitoXI:
Everything is running great so far. Only minor issue is sometimes when I unlock my phone my lockscreen is a bunch of different colored lines but once I unlock it's ok.

Only happened like twice since yesterday.

Loving the rom so far. My first AOSP rom I've used. Battery life is pretty good also. Haven't had a long convo on the phone so I still haven't tried that yet.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] PostMeridianLyf:
Known issue, in settings>developer options Disable HW (hardware) overlay.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] IXChicharitoXI:
I don't have that enabled.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] PostMeridianLyf:
click it, that should fix it. my phone is in twrp right now so i may be mix matching some words.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] PostMeridianLyf:
Disregard this, reflashed without selecting contacts, messaging and a few others. Working good now!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] LuigiBull23:
Good to hear buddy
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] banksdaname:
So good to be back on this liquidity goodness. Dumb question, do you flash kernels in recovery like it was any other rom? I've never played around with kernels and want to try ktoonz to see what the fuss is about
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] papi5120:
Yes.. Just wipe dalvik and cache. Then flash the kernel
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] LuigiBull23:
If you're gonna go for Ktoonsez then you're gonna wanna wipe cache/dalvik then fix permissions AFTER flashing his kernel.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] KingKostas:
anyone else having flickering in gallery? :eek:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fdc_guy:
Yes i am also having this problem.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] OffDatGoGo:
I had that same issue. Small headache because it force closed so much & so often that it was hard to select Titanium Backup to uninstall it. Which lead to another small headache....android something(can't remember what exactly it was) started crashing more so than contacts first did.

I did manage to notice that the contacts app was version 4.1.2. LS is 4.2.2. So being that this is a system app, the system rejected it. I just restored 4.2.2 via TB & all was well.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] PostMeridianLyf:
Well i read the op of the inverted gapps with aroma and it was mentioned that you shouldn't choose apps that can already invert themselves or else they will break. I ended up not installing messaging, contacts and I can't remember if there was another one but it's running fine now.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Do kindly note that you need to carefully decide which Google Framework you are going to keep. When you install Inverted, they being 4.1.2 is not so much as a issue. But if you installed the Google Framework from the Inverted on LS 2.5 then you are asking for trouble.

Edit - The framework is a combination of the Google Services Framework, backup transport & few others.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] IXChicharitoXI:
Read the op guy.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] itzzbenx3:
Will this rom successfully flash and function on the S3 model SGH-T999V? My S3 is stock and unrooted, I plan on rooting and flashing the latest liquidsmooth rom. Currently, I am on Andriod Version 4.1.1, having a baseband version of T999VVLDLL1 updated through OTA.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
I believe so. Just confirmed, MT3G does state in the OP that T999V is supported. However did not see immediate references in the OP for the main thread.

FWIW - The rom does not touch your Modem or Bootloader. So no risk of getting D2TMO Modem on your device.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] LuigiBull23:
You should be able to flash it but it may fail in recovery due to an incompatible image towards the ROM you're flashing, reason being it's attempt in identifying your device model. Should the ROM fail in recovery simply flash the D2TMO recovery image rather than D2CAN, whether it be TWRP or CWM, and the ROM's updater script should run through just fine. The images are compatible with each other. Also, make sure you are on the latest version of whichever recovery you choose to use.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] itzzbenx3:
Thank you for your informative reply to my question. :)

Thank you for your reply, but, what is the D2CAN recovery image? To flash this rom, I would have to download the d2tmo liquidsmooth rom and flash the rom and gapps with the latest recovery (ex. TWRP) after having done a backup, full wipe, and etc. right? :confused:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Confirmed if it fails in recovery just flash d2tmo recovery and no harm no foul

Did anyone have the problem of the video thumbnails not getting displayed??

If yes please advice on what to do.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] LuigiBull23:
Guess I'm getting those echoes today lol
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
D2CAN is Developmental Device name of T999v. D2TMO is the name of T999. Rest of what you said is correct. If for some reason the ROM won't flash in the recovery then install d2TMO version of the Recovery and then try the ROM.

Haven't seen the issue myself. You may want to clear Dalvik & Cache in Recovery and then try.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] itzzbenx3:
Oh, okay. Thank you for your clarification about D2CAN and D2TMO. Since I plan on using the [SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 UNIFIED TOOLKIT V7.0] Drivers, Backup, Root, Recovery + MORE [TMO] to root my phone and flash the ALLINONE, I'm assuming I have the D2TMO TWRP recovery, will it be best to update the D2TMO TWRP recovery and flash liquidsmooth or somehow get the updated D2CAN TWRP recovery to flash the rom?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
CWM doesn't even have a d2can version. Just keep using d2tmo recoveries. But always remember that you have a T999v. And never flash d2tmo firmware to your device (radio, bootloader, etc). You may have to edit update script files sometimes. I guess that's what you get for living in Canadia :)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] critofur:
I have the even newer LTE one and it won't let me install :( EDIT: so, I still want to install it, any easy way to overide that check?

T999UVAMB7 is what I had, I tried downgrading to T999UVDMD5 and rebooting to system then to Recovery, but that did not work (still would not let me install this ROM, I mean).
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
When I get home I'll post what scripts you need to remove for it to work. Or just remove them myself and reupload for you, all will be a test as I won't guarantee results you desire lol. Search around fit the scripts if you would like. I'll be at home in about 3 hours.

T-Mobile SGS III
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] itzzbenx3:
Quick question, currently I think I have a d2can TWRP recovery because when I try to update through GooManager, it finds me the latest d2can TWRP recovery and I am not sure how to check. If flashing the rom on the latest d2can TWRP fails, can I just download and flash the latest d2tmo TWRP recovery on my d2can TWRP and I will then have the d2tmo TWRP recovery and then flashing liquidsmooth should work? Sorry, I just want to make sure that I can flash the d2tmo TWRP recovery on top of the d2can TWRP recovery if it fails.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Yes that should work
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Your subsequent post negates this.

What I'd suggest is to take the v2.5 of LiquidSmooth and try to flash it using existing D2CAN Recovery that you already have. If that succeeds then no further work needed.

However for some reason you are not able to flash the ROM or you get some error then I suggest Downloading D2TMO version of TWRP. Since I usually flash the recovery using ODIN, I suggest doing D2TMO Recovery via ODIN rather than Goo Manager.

P. S. - I usually take Goo Manager's update suggestions with a pinch of salt. Even though I have v2.5 of TWRP, it keeps recommending me the version v2.2 of TWRP. Similar story goes for the GAPPS too.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] critofur:
Thanks. (I've run out of thanks, I'll press that later). I wasn't sure if I open the .zip file on my PC and grep around maybe I could just remove that check...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
If I hazard a guess, you are probably looking for it in the updater script. Usually found under META-INF Folder.

P.S. - Do note, you are looking to re-sign the zip file after making changes.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] OffDatGoGo:
Here's a rather miniscule issue....

I don't have to smiling jellybean face in the center of my screen after multiple taps on the Android version.

What happened to it? I still receive a hectic feedback after touching and holding my finger on the screen for a few seconds which brings up the "flingable" jellybeans though.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
:confused: Huh ? Say What ? Not sure I am even remotely understanding your issue.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] OffDatGoGo:
Lol!

There is usually a red jellybean with a smile on its face after tapping the Android version from within the settings menu. I do not have the red jellybean anymore. I actually haven't had it since LS 2.4.

Go to your device settings, about phone then tap the Android version several times rapidly. The red jellybean should appear. Then hold the screen and the "daydream" jellybeans appear that you can actually fling appear. Surely a person of your Android knowledge has been aware of this "easter egg" that has been in the Android OS since at least Froyo.

The screenshot has a green Android in the center because it's my wallpaper.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Ya but I've not tested what it'll do. I change the updater script often on some att ROMs I like to flash, never removed those lines so not sure if there would be any consequence, shouldn't be, just should be a fail or proper flash.

T-Mobile SGS III
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Yes I knew of the Easter egg. What I did not understand was that you were referring to the said egg in your post.

As a matter of fact, I do actually have the correct Red Colored Jelly Bean with smiley face. I do get the throw-able versions too.

P. S. - FWIW, on a Nexus image, Google actually unlocks the Developer Options instead of the egg.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
All asserts can be safely removed from the update script. Their only purpose is to prevent dummies from flashing mismatching files to their device.

I submit that if you are smart enough to root your phone, you are smart enough to edit a zip file.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] OffDatGoGo:
The jellybean icon is even missing in Settings/Display/Daydream. Weird. No apps that come packaged into the ROM have been frozen nor uninstalled.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TheKucho:
Hey guys, newcomer to this device, and i have a few questions regarding this rom:

1) Can i flash v2.5 which is 4.2.2, even if I'm on 4.1.1 with baseband T999UVDLJA?

2) Can i flash v2.5 on CWM v5.5.0.4? Or do i need to update it somehow?

3) Are there risks of losing data on an external micro sd card? Should i remove it before flashing?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] LuigiBull23:
1) Yes you can. Just be sure to perform a FULL wipe (System, Data, Cache, Dalvik Cache) before flashing the ROM.

2)You may try flashing it on that version if you wish but it's highly recommended you update to the latest recovery to ensure a successful flash.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] IXChicharitoXI:
1. It SHOULD work. Incase it doesn't, you might have to update your bootloader. Then you'll need to flash this and your bootloader will be updated. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2282603

2. Download ROM Manager from the playstore and through that you can update to the latest cwm.

3. External sd card should be fine. Although I recommend backing everything in your internal sdcard. Pictures, music, etc. You're going to get the /0 folder.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
I'd like to add that, it is best to completely format the internal SD card. Otherwise sometimes you get weird errors like Camera or GPS Not working or Wi-Fi problems etc.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fdc_guy:
Hi,

I am still getting some crazy bad image cutting out flickering when scrolling through the gallery, the top notification bar keeps working and looks normal and the menu option works inside gallery just fine with no flickering, its just the rendering of all the thumbnails of the videos and photos that just constantly cut out and sometimes I can get that whole display area to go black. Again the top notification bar never blacks out and the menus still pop up when I have this issue...but the gallery images are cutting out with every touch of my finger.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
A similar issue has been reported before. My understanding is that this is inherent issue with CM. It seems to pop up only when there is a very high number of videos in your gallery.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] IXChicharitoXI:
I just reboot when I get flickering and it stops for me.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fdc_guy:
Rebooting does not get rid of the flicker at all. Its not an issue that causes me to want to leave 4.2.2 roms, but it is quite annoying. I have tried a few different kernels and roms. some of the other ROMs get rid of the flicker issue but then I have to deal with my camera not working right, or force closes.

Bleh oh well. I will deal with it till a resolution comes down.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
I used to get it really bad but on these latest builds I'm not getting any on stock cm kernel, if I switch kernels I get some flickering but no more tearing that looks all pink and green. I think they are getting extremely close to a very more stable 3.4 kernel
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Bobbywich:
So I just flashed to the ROM and setting it up and I have a question about the messages app. When I restored my sms messages, both my and the person I'm texting messages appear from the left side, instead of the usual "person messages on left and my messages on right" Is there a guide to set it up to make it look like default?

I'm combing through the options but I haven't had any luck yet.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Default what? Like TouchWiz?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Bobbywich:
I'm coming from Dandroid which uses default AOSP.

Edit: Ok I kinda understand now that you're supposed to use the colors to make it different between sender and receiver. I'm looking for an option that indents either side so that either message doesn't end up taking the whole screen but only the respective 3/4 of the screen or similar.

Also, could I just flash aosp mms source from the dandroid thread? Never done anything like that.

Edit 2: Now when it reboots,it sits on the liquidsmooth logo and never changes from that.

Edit 3: Played with this thing all day and couldn't get it working right. I'm coming from Dandroid which is a 4.1.2 TW based ROM. Rotating issues over at least 10 proper reinstalls of this rom are broken home button and more commonly, hanging liquidsmooth logo. I have a feeling it relates to my Titanium Backup (and possibly coming from 4.1.2), as I played with restoring various data which would eventually lead to hanging logo, and always after it would ask me to restore my Android ID, then restart.

All I really want is my text history and call history, and my app data, but I seemingly can't do it. Is anyone else having trouble with this?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
I have been restoring App data time and again in TiBu. It restored my Texts in WhatsApp just fine. Please note, if your backed up MMS app was a System App before, then the symptoms you are describing will occur. I suggest 2 things.

1. Please restore the app as a User App rather than System app. Better yet, install the App from Play Store and then just restore App data from TiBu.

2. Before rebooting, which hangs at LS logo, clean Dalvik & Cache if you had restored any app data.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Bobbywich:
Thanks for the suggestions. I finally got it working late last night after several hours. I learned a lot about the rom, the phone, and most importantly, myself.

I believe the problem stems from trying to restore unnecessary system data, as well as me trying to flash another aosp sms that I like better. I'm sticking with the current sms, though I don't like it compared to the sticker style aosp sms I enjoyed using Dandroid.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Glad to know you got it to work. Guess TiBu told you like it did to me that Restore All is Perfect recipe for disaster ?
