I flashed this rom and running smoothly from last 6hrs

I too restored all my applications by TB and it's working correctly

Only one issue I am having is that rom manager is starting but if I try to fix permissions then it's not completing but it is showing fix permission completed

Root access

Hi all

really nice looking rom.. no issue so far.. I did what it says on the second post about root access but i m still unable to gain root access :crying:.. Any other advice? please let me know
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] shoong512:
I tried to do a battery calibration but it wasn't able to gain access. I noticed super user wasn't installed so I went ahead and installed the one by chain fire. Upon doing so, super user didn't go into cwr, I did it manually but still nothing. Any thoughts?

Everything else seems to be working fine. WiFi works, Google music works perfectly for me. I can't duplicate the error stated in post #2. And by default is it suppose to be on nova launcher?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
So you read post #2 kind of? I state how to gain su access in my post. Glad you don't have issues with Google Music, I miss it. Hopefully it was a bad test build causing issues.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Djapatos:
I reread post 2 stopped panicking and breathed and tried again.it still didn't work. My superuser is outdated and each time it tries to update it fails to get root access. Do you have an updated superuser?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nxoxe:
Solved... My mistake
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Failing, superuser is built into the ROM within /system/app its tied into the dev settings and its all in my 2nd post.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] IXChicharitoXI:
Enable developer options by clicking the build number a bunch of times. Go to developer options and click root. Then pick the last option and you'll be fine.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Annex1:
for the ones that still need a little help its the 7th option down and select apps and ADB in developers menu call ROOT ACCESS :)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Djapatos:
OK, i figured it out

So here is what happened.. After flashing the rom at first i didnt see the superuser so i flashed the one i had before. So because this rom already had a superuser built in i guess they had some conflicts. Thats why it couldnt work.

So i reflash the rom and enable root and it works fine

Thanks all

Abslutely beautiful rom. My favorite by far. Within the pass 24 hours my phone reset itself 3 times. Is there anything I can do or is this a cause of this rom being in Alpha stage?

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mitash03:

Dope ROM development, guys! Job friggen well done. It's been buttery smooth so far. Although, I have switched to a different kernel. So far, no random reboots and battery life is so-so, will hold off for a few days on re-flashing another kernel if battery life seems to get better.

So headset connected and calls ending is officially a bug I'll add when I get to my PC. Apparently there is an issue with SU for some, so I'll post a flashable 4.3 su .zip that some claim to fix to their issues.

Nandroid Illusion R2.5?

First of all, my apology if this question isn't supposed to be posted here, please let me know and I'll delete it.

Did anyone has any issue creating a nandroid backup using TWRP after updating to 2.5? I kept getting this error:

"E: Error tarring split files!"

I restored my 2.1 nandroid then make another nandroid backup of this version, and it was fine. Then I installed 2.5 and got this error again when trying to create nandroid.

It partially writes the backup before this happen. It seemed to successfully backup system and data, but it was missing the boot loader part of the ROM.

BTW, I have not tried this with CWM Recovery

Thanks for your help.

Hey guys, don't know if this has been mentioned or if there's a fix.

I am on Alpha 2.5. When running Pandora with noozxoide enabled both programs show a notification of the app is running that isn't clear-able from the notification drawer. When clicking into them it brings me to the APP's details to Force Stop it or to disable the notification. Is there anyway to stop this from cluttering up the notification drawer?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Indian9990:
Yikes having some battery issues.

I unplugged my phone at 6:45. Probably had Pandora going from 6:50 to 7:30 and then paused the song and drove to work. Got to work at 8 and my battery is at 14%. I had WiFi off before I went to bed last night and it hasn't been on since.

Here are some pictures..

Now that I think about it. I didn't calibrate the battery this morning or wipe battery stats since I flashed 2.5. Hmm

Betterbatterystats. Google "betterbatterystats xda" and go to the xda thread, download the free apk file and install it.

Then open it so it'll start working. Give it time so it can read what's going on with your phone and tell you what's draining your battery.

Honestly I didn't do anything spectacular. Clean wipe as per the OP. I did cycle the battery a couple of times, keep my brightness halfway and keep Wi-Fi and Bluetooth off.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Brusington:
No issues.. First flash was a bit buggy. Theme chooser stopped working and what not and UI was iffy but I think it was titanium that ruined that one for me. When I flashed again(after wiping etc) I let the play store bring back the necessary apps then (one at a time) flashed whatever was left wit titanium. Been rockin with it since the late sat night/early sun morning drop.

No bugs no force closing no nothing. Battery life is very good so no charger separation anxiety or anything like that. If nobody is taking their time with this ROM and getting issues that's on them. If u are and ur still getting issues, just chock it up to ur phone just not liking you. Sorry bout ur first world probs. Technology isn't perfect.
