I'm so glad to find this Rom, been on E4GT, (bricked 3 and then on 4th Power Button Broke) when went to sprint store last Sunday for a replacement E4GT were backordered so they upgraded me to GSIII. Uprgrade wasn't until 12/13 so now I can use this and wait until next year to uprgrade to whatever is new.

Just rooted and now downloading to flash, first thought is a big learning curve for the phone but with this rom I'll be back up and running in no time. Been a big fan of KT's LiquidSmooth so happy happy happy to be home now.

I'm not able to install apps. The button is there but won't work
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
That's due to a bug with HALO. Just disable it for the time being and you should be good to go.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hermeticist:
By disable it do you mean drag it to the x?

Thanks for the swift response!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Yes sir. It's a screen overlay thing with HALO and not being able to install apps is just a bug that needs to be fixed within HALO itself.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Tremendoleo:
Install over Stock

Just rooted and installed using clockwork recovery. On reboot, the LiquidSmooth screen comes up and just kind of hangs. I wiped Dalvik Cache before installing Any ideas? I'm on SPH710 S3 with SPrint
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
If you just came from a TW ROM it's highly recommended you do a completely clean install meaning wiping system, data, cache, and dalvik cache. I personally do a FULL wipe no matter what ROM I'm coming from.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] treytoro710:
Thanks but thats the wrong link. i found it another forum (link below). Is that considered treason? haha

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/32286-kernel-aosp-jb-v65-62213-leankernel-minimalistic-kernel/
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Not necessarily.. You simply said you wanted to read about the kernel itself and the kernel supports many devices but have just about exactly the same features across all supported models so it wouldn't have mattered which variant I sent you as long as you got to read about it lol so I sent you the original thread to that kernel bud :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jtsv:
Same thing happened to me I took the battery out and booted into recovery and did a factory reset clear all data and it booted up really fast and LiquidSmooth all the way!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] knacky805:
Same thing here. Full wipe, first install, hung forever at boot animation. Held down power button to power cycle, and it booted fine after that and since. Boot time is extremely quick compared to most ROMs I have tried, and the ROM works flawlessly. Haven't found any bugs yet with the functions I use and it doesn't seem to have the "battery-drains-faster-the-longer-its-been-since-first-install" ghost that I seem to encounter with other ROMs.

I continually try other ROMs and always find myself coming back to this one as my stable daily driver.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Tremendoleo:
I don't know guys. I must have done something wrong. I did a factory wipe and reloaded the ROM but it is not working properly. Home key doesn't work - can't access Play Store; no Google Apps (whcih of course I can download separately); Can't add a Google Account. Not sure what's up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kingy9000:
Um. You need to flash Google Apps right after you flash the ROM :p Home Key will not work without it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Tremendoleo:
That's good news. I didn't realize the home key was dependent on Google Apps. I'll give it a try. Thanks so much.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Tremendoleo:
Any way to remove the Google Search bar from the screens? Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shinesthru:
I don't think that is an option with the stock launcher. Any number of third party launchers found in the Play Store like Nova and Apex will allow you to remove the search net, however.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mcluvin1065:
Read it and wheep fellas...:p

Sent from my rooted, suited, and booted s3, living the dual core life, know dat.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Tremendoleo:
Is that PhotoShopped? I've had my phone on since 7AM and the batter is below 50% already.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] clintre:
That is close to what I get. I generally get a day plus a few hours depending on use and signal strength.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] j00manji:
stock battery or ...?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] knacky805:
Mine is usually at 1d 5h with 30% batt remaining, typical usage being 45 mins of voice calls during the day, a few texts and 20 mins of music on max speaker volume in the morning and 20 mins plugged in via headset to the car in the evening. Exchange Activesync is always running for my mail. Stock battery.

Battery life seems to largely depend on signal strength. A lot of people say put your phone on WiFi because 4G eats more battery than WiFi, but my experience has been completely opposite that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shinesthru:
On my stock battery I will usually get about 1 day off the charger, with around 4 hours of screen on time. I do a lot of web, forum, social media surfing, quite a bit of texting, but between home and work, I'm almost always in wifi.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Rxpert:
Yes stock
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] phyba:
What kernel?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] treytoro710:
Were you on WIFI all day or using 4G?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] involuntaryqool:
Everytime I'm in a call people keep saying that they hear an echo of themselves during the call...anyone having this problem?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Rxpert:
Dkp
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] beyeond:
My phone hates dkp. Not sure why. I have a rev0 and even if I bump it up to stock voltages, I get instant reboots when overclocking.

Running lean kernel for a few days then gonna try bms.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Rxpert:
Why overclock?

I underclock down to 1 GHz and can't tell the difference
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] supahero00:
2.7 is heaven! Noticed something though don't kno if it's just me... I added the addition for halo so i can add apps to it and I noticed hardcore battery drain (4 hours, roughly 50%). Also I use juice defender to add to the deep in the sleep... It kept the internet on as well... Have no idea why.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hermeticist:
What addition are you referring to? Do you have a link?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shinesthru:
I'm guessing it's this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.paranoid.halo
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] phyba:
Clean flash? I'm getting over 4 hours screen on with lean kernel and it idles great. Lost 2% over night (7 hours).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mcluvin1065:
3g most of the day.... Im a spontaneous power user so i like it to work when i want it to.... For all who want to get battery life like this.... Go gets rericks universal setup and watch the magic happen.... Smooth and battery life is off the charts...

Edit: Here is the link to the setup. All thanks go to rerick...go thank him for me. @ the kernelizers thread....this is a ktoonz setup so keep that in mind....

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] muahhShay:
Is anyone else having issues with taking front facing pics with this rom?

I had to wipe clean and start over with 2.5 it's fine with the front camera.. But imma update it to 2.7 again and I'm worried ima get that bug again..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] falconator:
Just jumped on 2.7 - awesome work guys!

Does anyone know how to remove the halo icon from the top of the notification drawer when halo is disabled? I personally don't like halo at all, and I accidentally turn it on when trying to flip to quick settings.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hermeticist:
Someone needs to add this to the first post.

Just drag it to the top of the screen
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
This seriously needs to stop already.. This has been repeated far more times than I can count to NOT be able to find the answer using the search bar on this thread...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hewey_mx5:
No issues here. Try redownloading it then reinstall with a clean wipe.

Someone asked this earlier and I think they were told that it can't be removed. It's baked in so the if you don't like it, unfortunately you're stuck with it. Maybe in the next version they'll have a with and without halo option.

I think he was asking if there was a way to completely remove it. Even after you take it off the screen the way you said, the halo icon is in the notification drawer and he has turned it on accidentally from there.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] falconator:
I easily found the answer to the question that you assumed I was asking, but you didn't understand my question. I wasn't talking about the floating halo on the home screen. The post below yours understood me, and I'll get used to the icon on the notification shade and I'm sure as halo matures more options like this will be added.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
My comment wasn't directed towards you bro, otherwise I would've quoted you on it lol. I was referring to everyone in general who constantly asks silly questions like disabling HALO without searching first. It's been discussed way too much now.

EDIT: To answer your question, you can't remove the icon unless you modify the systemUI apk.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cyaclone:
It was mentioned that you could disable HALO, will someone tell me how to do this or better yet how to remove it?

It's sticks and is usually in the way of other things, can I just delete the apk from the root directory?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
The feature is built into the ROM. There is no apk. The only way to remove the notification icon is if you modify the systemUI apk.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cyaclone:
You did mention awhile back that it could be disabled......how to do that?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
lol when I or anyone else says "disable" we referring to removing the HALO circle from the screen by dragging it out, double tapping on it, then dragging it to the X.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cyaclone:
Surely not............can not move it.....tried to drag, swipe, pound, and various gestures using Nova, but it never moves.

Since it is not part of this Rom, could I reinstall v2.7 over it again to eliminate HALO?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ambkor:
So... The only bad thing about 2.7 it's the halo options right? I have a question.. There are any place where i can get liquid nightlies? please.. :( :confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Did you tap twice on it and hold it on 2nd tap? That's when you can drag all over the screen.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cyaclone:
No, v2.7 is great and I haven't had any issues at all. I did install the newer camera and Halo separately. So unless it has been just added, Halo is not part of v2.7
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ambkor:
wait.. how you did it? ( the new camera and halo) can i get the links? and Halo its in 2.7..

---------- Post added at 02:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:52 PM ----------

Please don't.. I love Liquid :( DONT LEAVE US :(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cyaclone:
Yes it was in v2.7 but I did not activate it until I downloaded an apk that was posted that was a maybe fix. The camera is attached
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hewey_mx5:
The blobs CNex is talking about are to help them make liquid better :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Rxpert:
Its connectivity enhancements. They aren't switching devices.....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
There are no nighlies... and how does having HALO make the ROM bad? Just don't use it. Simple as that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hermeticist:
What fix are you talking about? Do you have a link?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hewey_mx5:
He may have been talking about this link that Luigi posted awhile back.

If you guys try that I highly recommend making a nandroid backup first.

I followed the steps and got a million year boot. Then I restored my backup.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hewey_mx5:
I never tried it because the Halo options don't bother me. I think some other users reported issues with it or it not working properly too.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cyaclone:
It is not bad and it does work.....but for me in doesn't move from its station and is in the way. Prior to using your suggested apk, the circle was not active and now it is. If I do a reinstall on top of the current v2.7 that has the added apk, will it then be gone and I will have a fresh v2.7 without the active circle showing?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
You should always make a backup before flashing anything in recovery as there is no guarantee for positive results.

---------- Post added at 07:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:05 PM ----------

I haven't tried that. What I did was a completely clean install of the ROM then pushed the apk before restoring any data, rebooted and I was free of those settings.

You can try your method and see how it works out.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ksmullins88:
I'm bored so I thought I'd take some time to say something.

I've tried every single AOSP ROM for this phone and none of them have as many useful features as this ROM does. It is easily my favorite, as I keep switching back to it. Luigi, liquid, and whoever else put in work to make this ROM...

THANK YOU

I just feel that y'all are under-appreciated and I can sense the frustration with the idiotic redundant posts throughout the thread. :p People just don't read...

Anyway, thank you, again, for this magnificent ROM and I look forward to the next update. :good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Did someone just say I was a member of Team Liquid? Haha.. Thanks bro. I really appreciate the kind words. Idk where some people got this idea but I must ask that you and everyone else take this under full awareness...

I have NO INVOLVEMENT and take absolutely NO CREDIT in the development of this outstanding ROM.

As a huge supporter to this ROM and it's creators I simply contribute and offer my assistance to users across many LiquidSmooth threads. I apologize if I've appeared to be anything more than that but believe me when I say that was not my original intention. Hopefully this will clarify things for everyone.

Thought I would take the safe route and do what you did................clean install. Yea.......all gone for now....no more Halo Circle of Fame on the screen. Clean install of v2.7, plus gapps + camera 4.2.....and all appears to be fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] falconator:
Sorry if this has been discussed, but I've been doing a fair amount of multitasking while on speakerphone (with and without headset) and the proximity sensor still acts like I'm in the phone app when I'm trying to do something else, if that makes sense. I'll be checking an email or something with an ongoing call and as soon as I get my hand close to the screen it turns off as if it thinks I'm putting my face to the screen during a call, making it difficult to do anything. Anyone have any ideas here?

This rom is so good I'm finding the lamest things to complain about lol :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hewey_mx5:
That's really strange, especially since the sensor for that stuff is above the screen.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] falconator:
Ok I'm a liar apparently, I just installed latest stable dkp and ran through several test scenarios, and the only one I could recreate with the proximity sensor picking up my hand was when I wasn't on speakerphone. On both headset and speakerphone it was disabled, as expected. Everything is perfect. Not sure what was going on earlier, maybe it was stock kernel or maybe I imagined it but it's all good.

phone not booting up

here is what i did

1)deleted all user data

2)deleted chache

3)deleted dalvik chack

4)reset system

5)flashed the rom

6)flashed gapps

7)pressed reboot

i waited and the phone didnt reboot and then i took the battery out, put it back in and tried to start it up again and it didn't. my battery was above 20 percent before i did this so i know thats not the problem. Any suggestions?

---------- Post added at 06:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:07 AM ----------

oh crap i see my mistake, i thought this was for att -_-.

i flashed the wrong one

any ideas on how to fix this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Yea. Download and flash the correct one being AT&T.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] yotorogo:
i can't get the phone to turn on :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
If you can boot back into recovery then this is what I suggest. If you have a backup then restore that. If not then If you have an external sd card pop that into your pc. Download the correct ROM for your model, transfer it to your card, pop the card back into your phone, then wipe and flash the new ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shinesthru:
Can you boot into recovery? With the phone off press and hold volume up, power, and home button. Report back.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] yotorogo:
all i see is a black screen. Although if i take out the sd card, sim ,and battery ,and plug it in my computer i get a red light

---------- Post added at 06:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:33 AM ----------

rom is already on my extrenal sd card
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
When you try booting into recovery do you feel any vibration? If you plug in the charger do you see the battery icon pop up on your screen?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] falconator:
Also try download mode and try to Odin back to stock if you can't get to recovery. There were some threads awhile back abut people flashing the international roms that caused a soft brick, try searching for that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] yotorogo:
no vibrations, just a red LED light for like 10 seconds

---------- Post added at 06:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:39 AM ----------

already tried, couldn't get into odin either
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
What about the battery icon when charging? At this point by what you're telling me it sounds like you hard bricked your phone unfortunately... If you don't see anything pop up on your screen when plugging in the charger then you have indeed hard bricked your phone...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] yotorogo:
well i guess the only thing i can do now is just go into att and see if i still have a warranty and or some insurance and try to get a new one
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Wouldn't recommend that. You're better off getting it Jtagged, not to mention it'd be cheaper.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hermeticist:
When I had AT&T a couple years ago they were very good about trading phones for refurbs. Just tell the partial truth: You can't turn it on.

That should work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] beyeond:
I know this is not on topic really but how come this thread is in android development but others like slim and rootbox are in original android development?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] machacapopa:
Anyone has an issue with the bluetooth. Mines when is on and i go to turn it off it says "unfortunately, Bluetooth Share has stopped"...when i press ok, it says "Unfortunately, Pandora has stopped." I hit ok and then it turns off the bluetooth.

Also, when i pair my phone with my Car (MB) and a call comes in, there is a delay. I hit the answer key on the steering wheel and it picks up on the phone, but it does not come out thru the cars speakers until 15secs later. This only started happening after i flashed v2.7.

Any help will be greatly appreciated. thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hewey_mx5:
Because it isn't an original build. In the op, they say that it is built from bits of other aosp roms.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Where do you see that?

Like CyanogenMod, "LiquidSmooth is an aftermarket firmware based on the Android Open Source Project." It was not compiled from bits and pieces of other AOSP ROMS.. It was solely compiled from source.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hewey_mx5:
My apologies Luigi. I must have misunderstood the op. I read the disclaimer that cited CM, AOKP, Slim, and PA as meaning that this was built from different parts of those ROMs.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] beyeond:
So slim and rootbox are original builds and liquid isn't? Sorry I don't understand...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Yes. Their device trees, framework/settings, and code that was all incorporated into the project you are right about that bro. Guess you can say it's SOMEWHAT CM based :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shinesthru:
So, why then isn't this thread in "original development" like this other ROMs?

---------- Post added at 02:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:42 PM ----------

2.8 is in the works according to LS's Facebook.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Yes it is :)

EDIT: Oh and regarding your question I'm not 100% sure why but for the reasons I stated above may have something to do with it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hewey_mx5:
The sticky on the original development board has a pretty detailed rundown of what should be there and what should be here. I can see why this wouldn't be on that board after reading that sticky. Having said that, I've never run any of the roms that are on that board besides CM (which I didn't really care for) so I don't know how they stack up originality wise to liquidsmooth.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Agreed and just to put it out there, LiquidSmooth and SlimRoms are the top 2 AOSP ROMS in my honest opinion. I appreciate and support all devs and their hard dedicated work but these are by far the most stable, customizable, and smoothest ROMS around. Doesn't get any more original than that :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] life:
i agree 100%, if i ever flash anything on my phone it is for one of these 2 roms, and the only thing i ever flash are usually updates.. By far the most stable roms available for our device. The dev's for these two rom's have outdone themselves, and I (and I'm sure a lot of others) are extremely grateful they put in so much time and energy into their craft, and then let us use it for free.

Thank You Team Liquid
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] beyeond:
I still don't understand why this thread is here and slim is in original buy I'm just gonna drop it...don't wanna go off topic.

Running 2.7 with dkp. Raised the voltages to at least 900 and everything is running great. My rev0 can't handle an undervolt.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] 88EVGAFTW:
Tried sending a picture via NFC from my wifes stock S3 to my S3 with this Rom and it just says "incoming beam" then says "Beam failed to complete" then her phone says "the other device doesn't support large file sharing"

edit: I don't think Bluetooth is working right. I see the bluetooth toggle Switched "On" but Gray in quick settings panel.
