Not sure what I am doing wrong...

Good evening,

I am fairly new at flashing and am looking forward to flashing this ROM (it looks great!). I am currently using MOAR and have tried taking the proper steps to installing the ROM.

1. I have created a backup

2. I am using the factory reset

3. Clearing cache

4. Clearing Dalvik cache

5. Installing zip from SD card

6. Getting error (Unable to load).

I did notice that this ROM is small (152 MB) when compared to others (up to 800 MB). Can somebody be so kind and point as to where am I going about it incorrectly?

My Phone stats information is as follows:

Build Number: JZO54K.L710VPBMD4

Baseband Version: L710VPBMC3

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] 88EVGAFTW:
You need to be on MD4 Baseband for this rom to work. Also the 152MB size is correct. AOSP roms are light compared to the Touchwiz bloated BS.

Go to Freezas MD4 rom thread and download the Modem/Firmware/Baseband AIO and flash that before installing this rom.

Sweet! Downloading!

Thank you, I will try this right away!!!

Odd question. But does anyone know a way to get .gif files to play correctly? They won't animate for me. On 2.7 build. Cwm recovery.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shinesthru:
You need an app to play them on, don't think the stock gallery app plays gifs. Try QuickPic in the Play store, or is an excellent gallery app, and it pays gif files just fine.

HULU Plus and Weather Alerts

I searched this thread for "hulu" and no results were returned.

I did a dirty install of Liquid Smooth 2.7 from v. 2.5 (also installed latest gapps and ktoonsez kernel). Almost everything is working fine. A couple of exceptions I have noticed is Hulu Plus will not play videos. It acts like it is going to play video but only a black screen is displayed. I tried to delete data/cache from hulu app, but that did not do anything. I tried to uninstall and re-install hulu from play store, but again the results were the same. Hulu played videos fine on v2.5. Is anyone else having problems with Hulu?

The second thing I have noticed is that the Natiional Weather alerts that used to come up when using stock ROM are not received. When on stock ROM my wife's phone and my phone both received weather alerts. Now that I am on Liquid Smooth, I did not receive an alert, when my wife's phone did. Is this to be expected with custom ROMs?

Thank You.

sup guys ... just flashed this rom today. so far this looks like this will do great. It seems to be really responding to my battery savers like JD and Greenify. [battery life looks AMAZING] Im on the kernel that came with the rom.

QUESTION: how do I mod the green light to work for full charge to go from Always On to Only When Charger In or something? Also . it seems to go green at 90% not 100% .. anyway to change that?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] itsmikeramsay:
Gonna look into it bro.... I prefer it to change to green around 96% myself...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JoeFCaputo113:
Can we expect this update tonight?! I will break night if I have to lol..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shekinahsmoke:
Re: [ROM][4.2.2][RC1] LiquidSmooth ROMs - d2spr & d2mtr - 2|14|13

I was taught that a battery is not fully charged until 30 min after the phone says 100%. Simply because cellphones do not give the accurate read. I tested this over the last six months with my og evo and now the sgs3. If you pull off the charger right at 100 it'll down to 99 in a heart beat. If you wait at least ten minutes more, it'll sustain at 100 much longer. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bsg411:
I prefer the battery to change to green at 100%.....

For some reason my battery low/charging/and full led colors got overridden by something and would not display what I chose for them.

I then tried lightflow, but it still has a few quirks so I tried using a combination of both.....lightflow for battery low/charging/and full led and built in option for everything else....seems to work but drains my battery more than when using just the built in function to control the leds.

Mike....one question tho....your teaser for the camera....not sure what was different about it than the current one. I saw the camera had one more setting....camera, video, panaramic, and something else....what was that??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] itsmikeramsay:
Not tonight bro... not quite yet... We're still adding and still have testing to go through...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JoeFCaputo113:
Well idk about you guys.... but even when my phone says 100% it still says "Charging" then 20-30min later it'll say "Charged".

Huge problem on 2.8

Almost anytime I try to use the pie controls it freezes the system ui and sometimes it won't respond at all and I have to force a reboot. I use this ROM exclusively for the customizable pie controls and it deeply saddens me to see that they are borked.

Clean flash with latest dkp kernel.

Edit: had a couple freezes rebooting the phone. Stuck on boot screen. Im going to roll back to 2.7 for the time being

Halo works well now though. :thumbup:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hewey_mx5:
I use the pie controls and haven't had any problems at all. Maybe there was a problem with your download.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ach1lles:
Hey guys im running 2.3 liquid smooth right now and ive been meaning to upgrade. I was wondering if there was an easy way to upgrade to the new firmware without having to redo all my settings or if it is the same as the standard wipe and flash?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hermeticist:
Wipe cache and dalvic then flash rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ach1lles:
that sounds alot easier, thank you!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Please also note that upon dirty flashing the ROM'S script wipes the system so if you're currently running a 3rd party kernel you will need to reflash that.

My First Non-Stock ROM!

Thanks so much to the DEVs for this ROM! This is the first one that I've seen that I really liked, so wish me luck on the flash!I am still a bit noobish! :silly:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ksmullins88:
I don't think so. The md5 sum matches perfectly.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Have you done the usual of wiping cache, fixing permissions and whatnot?

---------- Post added at 12:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:16 PM ----------

I'm guessing that was the default kernel at that point in time so yes, you should be fine. Default kernel is CM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ksmullins88:
Yes, I did a Clean flash (wiping data, system, cache, dalvik) flashed just the rom and gapps.

the pie works completely fine until i change the buttons to a custom app. (e.g. phone, mms, camera...) After i change to the apps i want, it causes system ui fc almost every time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
which gapps if I may ask? cuz that may have something to do with it, especially if you're using an unofficial package where the code doesn't play nice with dark ui and such. I would also try another full wipe along wiith formatting your internal storage as there could potentially be some leftover junk from previous ROMS causing this.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] beyeond:
I dirty flashed from 2.7 to 2.8. I'm using the slim gapps package and just tried to replicate his problem to no avail. Everything working fine here.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Slim gapps were a no go for me. Had to revert to the official ones to get the phone to boot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] beyeond:
Really? I'm running Slim_Gapps.4.2.2.build.6.x.zip and it boots fine. I'm not sure if it really makes a difference though does it? I just already happened to have slim gapps on my sdcard when I flashed liquid.

---------- Post added at 01:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:44 PM ----------

Oh yeah and the boot animation is a work of art.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Yes really lol. I ran through all troubleshooting steps individually to pinpoint the main culprit and it was in fact the Slim gapps. I use them all the time. After flashing phone did not boot and literally had to fully wipe and flash with official gapps and it finally booted. That's just one of the many troubleshooting steps I run through as they can potentially have negative affects on a specific ROM and depending on the device in hand. I fell into that situation unfortunately..

EDIT: I'm wondering if your phone booted because you possibly flashed an earlier build 6 gapps package prior to it's update on the 6.9 weekly?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dizzy21:
Yeah I had the same issue with Slim Gapps. Had to reflash the rom and clear data and cache. Ran Original Gapps and booted up no problem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hermeticist:
I always use the official gapps and have no problem.

Has anyone had a problem zooming with the camera on 2.7 and 2.8?

When I pinch to zoom/unzoom there is a very noticeable delay.

I'm running a clean flashed 2.8 with stock kernel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Nope and yes, official gapps will always work best.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ksmullins88:
Official gapps 03012013

Tried several full wipe flashes...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
And did you also take care of your internal storage?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ksmullins88:
Link to the gapps you used? I'd like to try. I'm confident that this is a ROM issue. Flash back to 2.7 and it works flawlessly. Flash to 2.8 and instant fc.

My pie settings are as follows,

First row... quantity 5 long press checked

Long press - contacts

Button two - camera

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
It's not an issue with the ROM exactly. There have already been reports of this occuring on other new ROM builds besides this one so my guess is the recent CM updates merged into these newer builds. Here's the very latest Slim gapps that put me in a bootloop.

http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/d...ad/383-addons/2875-slim-gapps-4-2-2-build-6-x
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ksmullins88:
Ahhh ok.. I was unaware of it happening on other ROMs. That makes a little more sense to me lol. I knew it wasn't user error. Thanks a lot for all the help guys. I'm not gonna flash those gapps and put myself in a boot loop lol. I've done enough flashing today.

I'm just gonna roll with 2.7 for the time being. Hopefully they get it squashed in 2.9
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] beyeond:
I don't know. I like how Gmail and YouTube are included in slim gapps. They've been working fine for me ... didn't realize they were causing people bootloops.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
I beg you to at least test those with 2.8 to gain some definite confirmation on my theory that is is updated gapps lol. The dude who said they worked for him probably flashed an earlier build 6 package that happened to have the same filename but were still updated on 6/28.

EDIT: Actually scratch that. Just got confirmation. Phone does not boot!

---------- Post added at 04:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:17 PM ----------

Are the Slim gapps you flashed the updated ones from 6/28 or earlier?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] joeyddr:
Just installed 2.8 and all is working great, I was wondering if it would be possible to get the gs4 play edition camera working correctly? i get some freezes and if i use the front facing and snap a pic it freezes and reboots.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] d0g:
What's the "proper" way to dirty flash this?

Can I flash ROM & gapps in one go? Or do I need to boot ROM first, then flash gapps, then clear cache/dalvik?

Do I clear dalvik BETWEEN rom & gapps?

Would love to hear from someone who did a successful dirty upgrade.

thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Your very last question is the very answer you're looking for. Wipe cache/dalvik then flash ROM and gapps all in one go.

Also, if you're using a recently updated unofficial gapps package I highly suggest you stick to the official ones in the OP. There seems to be a lot of bootloops going around and I was able to pinpoint this to be the cause. If you're willing to take the risk anyways then good luck to you.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] beyeond:
Not sure I downloaded them like 3 days ago. I was on an aosp build outside of xda for months and it had the gapps baked in. I can Dropbox them but not sure how slim would feel about it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] d0g:
I can't get this thing to install. The best ROM, the trickiest to install!

I finally had to do a clean install. Kept getting bootloops. (Yes, using the 0331 jb gapps from OP.)

Trying to install TiBackup from flashable also caused bootloops.

Now, is there any way to restore my lockscreen ring customizations and my Pie custom targets?? Please say yes!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] HoustonKid29:
00.

do I need to re flash the gapps too if just flashing over 207
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Yes as flashing the ROM will wipe the system.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] d0g:
Yes you do. At least I did.

---------- Post added at 04:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:22 PM ----------

Titanium Backup did restore my lockscreen targets, and the Pie styles (colors etc.) but not the "targets" & icons.

I posted a message on this yesterday. I am wondering if there is some sort of add blocking that might be blocking hulu. Either way there are multiple people who have confirmed that hulu is not working for them.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] life:
you do know that the best way to report this would be to download a logcat app, after its done downloading start it, then go to hulu and start it, after it fails, go back to logcat and pause and save. then upload the saved logcat file to pastebin, or dropbox, and post the link to it here, so the dev's could actually see whats happening, instead of just "it doesn't work on this rom, why?"
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Benconquerer:
It's not this rom, it the latest hulu update. If you have adblocking it won't work

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] life:
does this rom have built in ad blocking?? don't see anything in the changelog saying so.

Google Play Store (Web) -- Device Missing

Another thing that has been observed since dirty flashing v2.7 and subsequently v2.8 is my device is no longer listed on the play.google.com website. The google play store on the phone seems to work with no problem (updates are working and apps can be installed/removed).

I am wondering if this is a strange phenomenon with my configuration, or if this holds true for anyone else.

Just to clarify, what exactly did you flash before MOAR? It has to be an official MD4 firmware. You can't just flash any MD4 based ROM.

And I would just double check. Or just flash this first...
