Some Great Tips!

If you can't get more than 1 day of battery life with your Zerolemon 7000 mAh battery, something is horribly wrong then. Because I get like almost 4 days with around 18 hours screen on time (on Zerolemon of course). And this isn't even the best I could achieve but it's good enough for me. I don't stream Netflix or Pandora and only occasionally play a game once in a while. This is how achieved this battery life:

#1 Get rid of as much wakelocks I could, and replace wakelock causing apps with wakelock free alternatives. (Total Newb's Guide to Wakelocks

#2 Keep my KT747 Kernel up to date. (KT747 Kernel Sprint XDA Thread by Ktoonsez

#3 Read through Team Kernelizer's XDA Thread & Use TK Mod (Team Kernelizers XDA Thread) (Latest TK Mod Download Link 1.0.4 Revision 4)

#4 Applied custom settings by Team Kernelizers for my kernel or someone else. Currently I am using: Margarine GS3 Aosp v0.5 but you can head over to Team Kernelizers Box and check out some others.

#5 Use Crossbreeder Mod for even more performance while losing no extra battery. (Crossbreeder Mod XDA Thread)

#7 Enjoy and REMEMBER that your phone is made to be used and don't not use it just to save battery.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xPSYB0RGx:
fOn 2nd thought, I guess I will just go right ahead and install his kernel. Right now, Im restoring a few apps and stuff. Good to know you will be up for a while

Thanks so much for the links, will be back once I get things situated to discuss those voltages and stuff with ya,

Now arent you guys so glad u didnt have to tell me to flash the MD4 AIO again? for the gazillionth time? lmao
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kingy9000:
No Problemo

Haha yah, it's good to hear that and if you appreciate the help press the Thanks button, makes our status on XDA slight better and we appreciate it of course. Also yah don't keep 3G/4G or tethering on while you are sleeping, I just put my phone into airplane mode or sometimes turn it off overnight if that's too extreme for you just keep Wifi off and keep only like your phone signal on with no Mobile Data. This is because even when you turn off your phone Mobile Data is still on and sucking up battery life. This should really save you tons, I know it has saved a few people who I told this to tons. :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xX_Psycho_PR_Xx:
Man try same as me... Flash MD4 firmware then reboot on recovery and flash the rom.. I came from people rom too and believe me works perfect.. Yesterday i spent about 2:30 on this amd i flash md4 and done..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hiboi214:
I know this has been mentioned countless times but is there any resolution to the screen glitch? I mean besides a reset. Did a quick search and couldn't find anything. Any tips will help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kingy9000:
More Information Please!

Could you be more specific on what glitch it is? Is it the screen tearing glitch I have heard of before? I have helped out someone out on that before but could you describe the glitch?

Previous instances of a screen related glitch

Does this sound like your glitch? Please describe it in detail. Also what have you tried to fix the glitch? And what ROM version & Kernel & Mods do you use? Without this information, it's much harder to help you. :silly:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xPSYB0RGx:
Thanks man, my issue has been resolved (before you reply). It wasnt because I was flashing incorrectly, it was because I had an outdated recovery

and that recovery was incapable of creating SYMLINKS properly :p
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hiboi214:
It is the above glitch you mentioned, with the screen all pixelated. I am running version 2.4 with stock kernel. Latest modem running. Also running acid mod 5. Only temp fix I have found is to reboot phone. Hope it helps
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shinesthru:
System settings > Development > Disable HW overlays. That should help, but the settings don't stick through a reboot, so you have you to redo it if you reboot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kingy9000:
Try turning on System Settings>Developer options>Force GPU rendering (do not need to set it on every reboot)

Also I would recommend flashing T.K. Mod with the following instructions. (It helped out someone else with the same issue!)

(I have it hidden because it's rather a lot of text)

Quick Question, can more than one be selected? Im assuming so because you said "tweaks". I got to this part and selected none. Mainly because I wanted to dig thru the repository to manually pick from those.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kingy9000:
Yes you can click as many as you want but make sure they aren't Touchwiz Only I recommend going through the Team Kernelizer's Box, because that is more up to date and many more options.

Hey guys, im still reading the hundreds of pages regarding the ktweaker, undervolting and all that good stuff.

Aside from that, Im noticing one big issue. After flashing the this rom, ktoonez kernel, the 1.0.4 thingy (forgot the name of it), I had to make a call, scrolled through my call log, and my call log keeps force closing, I cant scroll past the 10th number. Weird
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] TuscaloosKen:
Anyone have a mirror? The download is super slow and I really wanna try this ROM. :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hiboi214:
Used the Tk mod as described. Has been a little over 20 hours and no screen glitch. Just wanted to say thanks and appreciate the help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] feelingnerdi:
I am unable to flash this. Tried 2 different recoveries. Wiped everything and it crashes once I try flashing the file.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xPSYB0RGx:
Have you flashed the MD4 AIO zip first?

Are you using 2 of the latest recoveries?

---------- Post added at 06:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:35 PM ----------

If you still havent downloaded it yet, I can add it to my dropbox and let you download from there. Im assuming you have already downloaded it after all this time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xPSYB0RGx:
Hey guys, Im having troubles with my call logs. I can not scroll past the 10th number that called me, if i do, it will force close. Any one have any ideas on how to correct this? I've did a quick search and no results came up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
Clean flash or dirty? Try a clean flash, also verify md5sums match
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xPSYB0RGx:
Clean flash (never ever ever dirty flash, lol)

Verified the md5 before flashing, and it was fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shinesthru:
Maybe try clearing the app data for the dialer?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lars1110:
download speeds

i get pretty good bandwidth where i'm at and this is telling me its gonna take 3.5 hours to download the rom. you guys need to get new mirrors.

Love the custom shortcut thing too

Hit that Thanks Button please. And yea you should have explored the ROM before saying the update seems the same lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Soundtrack to Chaos:
What I meant by that was: nothing seems to have significantly changed in the rom

Obviously coming from 2.2 to 2.4,there will be changes in the rom, I just haven't seen anything while using it, or via the changelog that has significantly changed between the two, features wise etc
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
I know I was joking bro. No major changes but they are there..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Soundtrack to Chaos:
Yea, can't wait till some more big stuff is added, but the rom is great as is for now, very smooth

Apparently MMS still doesn't work for some and auto brightness has become a minor issue between phone states. I don't believe anyone has reported Bluetooth drops just yet so that's a good sign. Better test it out yourself though, just to be sure.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stormseek:
Mines is saying failed every time I try to install the rom
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
More info is needed to further assist you please..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stormseek:
I downloaded the Rom.I started TWRP.and about two seconds into the installation process it it says failed in red letters
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
First make sure you are on the latest TWRP then try redownloading the ROM and check that the MD5's match. If it still fails then you may have to update your bootloader. Confirm your bootloader version by going into a terminal and typing

getprop ro.bootloader (hit enter)

Report back after you've attempted all this
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stormseek:
Ah ok. I think I'll just be a quitter for now. Don't feel like putting in effort

So lazy. It takes less time to do this than it does to flash a ROM, and it can save you headaches in the long run. This ROM is worth "the effort".

Im also having a 2nd problem, which is screencaster (or any other screen recording app) will not work on this rom either. Although when I was on 4.1.4 they were working. I really need these apps to work as I have a project that Im working on.

Questions: HDMI and 3G/Google

I installed Liquid 2.4 and now after a full wipe ( 3 x Cache, Davlik, System, Data) I have also installed Liquid 2.5. The following observations have been made when using both ROMS.

The following symptoms are present after a clean install of ROM, Reboot to System, Reboot to recovery, install gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip, reboot system:

When on Sprint/3G, connections to google services are not working (connection time out). For example, google searches, google now, and google play store. Most apps just hang when trying to make a connection. Now if the same 3G connection is used for things like News & Weather, foursquare, etc... those applications work just fine. If a wi-fi connection is established, all of the google applications (browser, google now, google play store) all work fine.

Before installing ROM, this file was used to upgrade firmware/modem: Galaxy-S-fre3-MD4FirmwareModemAIO.zip .

The second observation, and a question I have seen asked in this thread but never answered it the HDMI mirror out capabilities. I recently (after installing Liquid ROM) bought this cable from Amazon ( http://amzn.to/10y66sS ). I obviously never tested this cable before installing Liquid, so I do not have a valid test that the cable is even working as advertised. Assuming the cable works (power/hdmi/SGS3 port all connected), HDMI out Android interface (mirroring) or video play (MX player pro) is not working. Has anyone successfully used HDMI out using Liquid ROM?

I tried searching the thread for 3G to see if anyone else reported the problem with google services. I did not see a post which I thought was strange, as I would think this would be a big problem. As no one else reported this, and I have the same issue after a clean install I am wondering what is different in my environment.

Thank you for your help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Circaflex:
what radio do you have enabled? from what i have read if you have 3g/lte enabled but are only on 3g (HRPD) data sucks but if you go to 3g only it will work fine maybe thats the issue you are having
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gemneye:
I will try

I will try toggling and see if that makes a difference. I just thought it was strange that only google-type apps were affected. Rumor has it LTE is close in my area, but only 3G is available at this time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jorv976:
Lmfao!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gemneye:
[SOLVED]

Just to update the thread. . .

Toggling to 3G/CDMA Auto did work.

Strange. . . but it is an improvement.

Now, does anyone have any insight into HDMI?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] IcerJo:
Can someone try the screen brightness via the status bar? See if you experience a lag/delay or not? Also anyone else experience screen/wallpaper flashing?

It's weird, I'll get 12500 - 13000 AnTuTu scores, but barely top 5000 in Quadrant. Thought the Quadrant would be much higher, but still, the performance is amazing with this ROM + Kernel combination.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JPhantom95:
The lag happens to me as well. I saw screen flashing the day after v2.4 came out but not again since then.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stormseek:
I'm going to do this now. Should I back my phone up tho?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
You should always do a backup before flashing anything.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stormseek:
Lol too late :( time to download this rom again tho
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Jfree3000:
Having some serious titanium backup issues with the latest release. Only seeing half my apps when restoring and when selecting the file location it says moved 0 of "x" amount of files. Anybody else having this problem?

Edit: This is with a clean install also.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
You probably need to update your firmware to MD4.

Edit: Too late haha.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Did you try clearing your filters?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Jfree3000:
Yup don't know what's going on. Going to try again in the morning.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Jfree3000:
Yes, full wipe and clean install.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Can you provide some shots of what's going on in the app?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Jfree3000:
Nothing to show really, after flashing the latest rom and gapps, I do the usual log in blah blah blah. Install Titanium pro and the free app, restore license (usual) then a reboot. Open Titanium again pick the folder where my apks are stored and then it says 0 of "233" apps restored and then there are only 43 apps to install when I have about 80.

Well gave it another go and everything restored correctly this time. I don't know what I did correct this time or my phone is just haunted. :confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
1) Launch Xposed Installer and click "Install/Update"

2) Reboot

3) Launch Xposed Installer and go to the "Modules" tab (you will also get there if you click on the notification warning you that the module is not enabled yet)

4) Enable the module by checking the checkbox

5) Reboot

You may now go into the Xposed per-app settings and edit the DPI's of any app to your liking.
