[Galaxy S III Android Development] Oliviakrk:
Great rom.

I just installed it and it runs pretty smooth.

I only hope that I has full support of bluetooth...I had tons of problems with it in the past.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] drkaosdk:
No problems with Bluetooth here so far...

What problems are you talking about?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Oliviakrk:
I wasn't able to listen to music on other roms. It was stopping for second or two every 5 seconds. Just as if bluetooth connection was to slow to transfer all data.

Now on this rom bluetooth is working :).
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
Good to know everything works well!

And may the Light Force ROM be with us all! :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] shr95:
did anyone check out the media scan fix? any difference? :P i cudn't really note..anyone?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
I didn't notice anything in media scan. I installed better battery stats since day 1 with V8.0 and did not see any wake lock of media scan. :confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Oliviakrk:
I use isyncr every day (and media scanner with it) and haven't noticed any bugs.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] vinhtq79:
I confirm the media scanner works so far so good and amazing battery also. Now i am at 28% with 3 days and 6 hours in battery life and with 4 hours and 3 minute on screen. I cant believe my self that this is true. The words can be released: "simply the best"
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kalebdevil:
Hi, this is a great ROM, I have a request, can you provide just the transparent notification bar, without circular battery icon? Thanks for you great work....
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
Thanks for your feedback.

I will make that and place it in OTA...let's see if I find the time for that tonight :p

[Galaxy S III Android Development] LentoViolentoMan:
On flashing the rom, it freezes after dalvik cache wipe, it just says: system

On another occasion the screen started analogue fading away as if the battery was empty.

Do you know what can cause this? i'd like to run this one.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] shr95:
Thanks a lot man your the best :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
What have you done? Step by step please...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] LentoViolentoMan:
Well, i've flashed my device i guess over 200 times now, so i've done that first.

Then, when i saw this rom, coming from anonorom 4.1.2, i figured i wanted to flash this one.

So I downloaded it, put it on my internal SD and booted into recovery.

then i did:

wipe data/facreset

wipe cache

wipe dalvik cache

format /system

install zip from sdcard, install, --> first time it got stuck at dalvik cache wipe, second time stuck at system, third time looked like all kind of pixels, like the sandbox game and faded away like that.

Edit: Today it flashed twice in a row successfully

Edit2: Loving it.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
Glad to know it all went well! Probably you had a bad download or something because anyone had problems with installation. Also I installed it today to check and everything all right.

Cheers

[Galaxy S III Android Development] kacab:
Hi!

Just two questions: Is there a kernel available for this 4.2.2 leaked ROM

And

Where are the "developers" settings? Like USB debugging and stuff like that?

Titanium is constantly popping up this message....that I should enable the USB debugging....

That's it - otherwise - smoooooth and great!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
Hi

There aren't any costum kernel for 4.2.2 because samy don't release the sources. We believe when an official 4.2.2 firmware's release the sources will be released as well.

To activate developers settings you have to go to settings then tap: about device and in the last info that shows the build serial tap it 7 times repeatedly and then go back and the developers tab appears.

Cheers and thanks for the feedback
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Oliviakrk:
What for USB debugging is? I sometimes get that message, too.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] vinhtq79:
Yes, you're right. But i hear that new leak ME7 4.2.2 has little improved battery life. So if we have a light Force ROM from this 4.2.2 version, we can have a GRANDMOTHER ROM of all ROMS :))))

---------- Post added at 11:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:23 AM ----------

[Galaxy S III Android Development] shr95:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] shr95:
:D Awesome battery life
[Galaxy S III Android Development] LentoViolentoMan:
yeah im having massive batterylife with current version. it really is the best rom i've ever used. i dont like the pure aosp feeling, so this is absolutely great.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
Thanks all of the good feedback you are giving. :D

I really try to do my best to give a good stock experience Sammy should give from scratch.

I already deodex the new leak and hope tomorrow have some time to work on it.

Cheers ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] LentoViolentoMan:
The only thing i'd really like for this rom is a stock looking 23/random toggle option. Because TW doesn't let you pick the ones you don't want to see, and flashlight was just superhandy at the toggle bar.

But the mods i see around kind of ruin the experience of a stock feel i guess.

OTA Email App

Hi,

Flashed 9.0 and all good so far, but in V8 there was an OTA stock Email app. It doesnt show under V9. Could it be made available please? Also there doesnt seem to be an extended power menu as there was on V8?

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
I will place email in OTA (forgot that :p).

As for the EPM...I found some problems building that mod in my Windows PC. I will have to try in Linux if works... i will see that today.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] NM666:
I see Superuser and SuperSU (both!) in my applications. And both try to update su when launches.

Maybe it is because I was updated without wipes?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] shr95:
Oh I didn't see the ota sorry :P lol yeah am able to palm swpe capture photo saves all but if I try to access the image through the notification bar it hangs and phone reboots :confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
Yes... you must wipe.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
As I said...and didn't even knew that was possible ;)

I didn't managed to get that to work...

[Galaxy S III Android Development] hwjrmrm:
flanshed V9.0! it's great!

could you make a stock battery+transparent statusbar for us? thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] shr95:
Isn't it what's default with v9? Lol
[Galaxy S III Android Development] supreethms:
I observed that we get transparent status bar in S4 launcher. ;)

Why dont u try that?

Even it is better than the current s3 launcher. :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
Wipe is always recommended...but if you came from V8.0 you're not obliged to do it...if you came from older versions you have to wipe before install.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
Media scan fix is built in the rom from scratch. Don't need to install.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
What's the difference between what you ask and how's the status at fresh install?

hello!!! can anyone tell me what kernel are compatible with v9.0?

As far as I know no custom kernels are yet available for 4.2.2. But could be wrong ofcourse :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
You are right!

Until Sammy release the sources we have to stick with stock kernel.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] LentoViolentoMan:
as good of a batrterylife i had with 8.0, as bad is it on 9.0.

hmm
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
Check My stats...

I think V8 has better battery...but no doubt that V9 is way faster!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ekie84:
Really?to me battery is better on v.9.0...did you restore apps+data using TB?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] LentoViolentoMan:
yeah, i did that. Is this unwise?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ekie84:
Yupp :D try not to restore data using TB,only apps if you want to...maybe you can restored apps+data on games but not all apps...i tried it flashing a couple of roms and better is better :thumbup:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] LentoViolentoMan:
alright, thanks, i'll restore app only in the future
[Galaxy S III Android Development] shr95:

Hi,

I have installed version 9 and having lots of troubles with exchange email app.

After installation in recovery phone freezes randomly. When I try to open email app it just freezes.

PS:

I have updated from v8 with about problems. Than I wiped the phone done factory reset and install v9 from clean and same promblems
[Galaxy S III Android Development] claytow:
+1 Ive tried everything but as soon as I install the email app everything freezes, reboots and generally doesnt respond..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] samokko:
light force and widget locker

Yo,

I found this nice rom a week ago or so. Im using light force rom + widget locker + nova launcher combo. After i installing those, i uninstalled tw launcher coz it kept popping every now and then. Now the noob question is: Is the roms original lockscreen included in tw launcer or not? If not, whats it called and is it save to remove? It sometimes pops over widget locker.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
Everything works my friend! :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
I have to check the email app again. Don't know what's causing that kind of problems... please be patient as I will try to have that worked out today. ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
Hi

I don't recommend that you unistall it. It's better if you force the widget and Nova launcher as the primary ones. It should have that kind of option on those apps.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
For those having problems with email and exchange:

I tested on mine and it works fine. Installs normally and without problems. Do you restore data from previous email app? You must not do that.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] austibor:
I don't restore data for email app.

In fact after I install email app in recovery and the boot the phone and click email app the screen goes blank and phone freezes.

Nothing react I need to remove battery to restart it.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] claytow:
I did a "Wipe my phone to install new rom" from Philz recovery. Then installed V9.0. Then first thing I did was install the exchange app. It goes downhill from there, that was before anything was downloaded or installed. Although things were downloading from the Play store, but I stopped those while I was dealing with email app. I dont have another email app, have only ever used the in built one with a hotmail account.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
WTF!

I will build another Cwm with the apps to install...For know please be patient or use a 3 party app such as k9 email...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] vinhtq79:
I uninstalled gmail from system apps and reinstalled 3rd party gmail app from playstore, It said that "can not install gmail". So I had to reflash ROM using gmail from ROM's system app and yahoo mail installed from playstore. I think it is a temporary solution for guys have problem with email system app.

V9.0 is still the best. Awsome battery will be show up after a full charge cycle.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] austibor:
I (we) have a problem with the samsung exchange email app.

Gmail works ok for me.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] vinhtq79:
OK, I see, it is just a small solution, ignore it if you dont need.

In my case, gmail from system works well, but 3rd party gmail app did not work. I suggest it relates to your problem.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
I posted this message:

IMPORTANT: In Recovery go to 'advanced' and tap 'toggle /data/media' to enable OTA auto-install

did you enable it? This way the recovery is set to automatically install the downloaded files from OTA and reboot, if you choose that option, but if you want to install manually and the OTA files don't appear in the app 'my files'... you can see them using a file explorer with root and navigate to /data/media/0/LightForceROM_OTA
[Galaxy S III Android Development] otto_di2:

Just sync'ed my Exchange account and must say, It is working fine now :) Can I install the media scanfix from website?

/Otto
[Galaxy S III Android Development] claytow:
Success!!

Right,

To confirm, used Email App Fix and all is now well with my V9 no issues at all. I do however have one issue that maybe you can help with. in the old V8 you used SuperSU by chainfire and in this release you are using Superuser. I am using the Barclays banking App and it requires an unrooted phone to work, so in the old version I used RootAppDelete to disable SuperSU when I needed to use the app and that worked a treat.

In this one, even if I disable superuser the Barclays app still recognises that Im rooted and wont work.

Can anyone help me with uninstalling superuser and installing superSU so I can see if that works? as long as it wont cause any issues to the ROM. Or suggest anything else I can try?

Thanks, great work, great rom.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
No need to install media fix...It is already built in the rom from scratch
[Galaxy S III Android Development] edgeqwerty:
I will give you a solution in PM
[Galaxy S III Android Development] otto_di2:

I have similar problem with Helium app. When I open it the phone freezes and after 5-10seconds it will restart.

in previous versions it worked just fine.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] manemzjum:
What happened to the sms app with the contact picture next to each message I liked that feature

Still an amazing rom
[Galaxy S III Android Development] claytow:
Contacts

Just a question, Im pretty sure in the last version V8 the contact pics for people that you didnt have a picture for were the newer ones from 4.2 and in this rom they are more like the old Jellybean ones? or is it that they were the S4 ones and these are the proper S3 ones for 4.2.2?

Not a biggie, just curious.

Thanks
