Thanks the for tips :).

strange thing in the screenshots i added in the other post, phone wake time was higher by far from the real use i made in it! it was during a very busy day, i barely used it :rolleyes:! like WIFI, it was set to always off during sleep, yet it shows as always on.

anyway, i reinstalled the entire rom, followed some of your tips, and you can see the results in the screenshots, very happy with it :).

***have to mention i suspected some apps to drain battery, like gmail, facebook & few others, so i did the battery tests without them installed.

will do it now, but will make sure to set them in the right way, so they won't drain the battery.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mrbouli:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] keneth_c:
It's been out for a week now. I prefer waiting for the official release... after the previous mishap from Samsung!

--
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Slims34:
But this is the official test firmware from Sammobile.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Jamson85:
It's the official test release for the note, not for the s3

the page even says that they not recommend flashing / updating your s3 with it
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Open Europe test firmwares available for Galaxy S III (GT-I9300) and Galaxy Note II (GT-N7100)

Downloading. ArchiDroid 1.X is one week behind in terms of common ArchiDroid changes in 2.X. It will take some time before syncing everything. I'll release 2.3.1 today and start merging changes, if everything goes good expect experimental even by end of current weekend ;).

Also, changes being merged from last week are big... :cool:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] newk9:
Nice! I will be going back to 1.X so nice to have the 2.X goodies from recent days =)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] tezukaryoma:
just now after i flash 1.7.2,during the first boot,after the samsung boot animation done,n the language page came out,it straight away reboot again,is it normal?or bugs?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Normal. This tells you that my ArchiDroid backend works as it should :).

Guys, as I told you earlier I'm now working on my own. New ArchiDroid 1.X base finished -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2569180

Now I'm syncing with upstream (ArchiDroid 2.X) and updating 1.X-EXPERIMENTAL. After a while, stable should be ready.

No ETAs please. It's big.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] regaber:
Been enjoying your releases for the absolute stability of them, it would be contradictory to be impatient :)

Take all the time needed to make the next release perfect as usual, we know to task is no small one now that wanam moved on.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Actually, backporting pocket debian from latest ArchiDroid 2.3.1-E is far more difficult than preparing my own base from sammy's drop :laugh:.

But you won't be disappointed with 1.7.3 changelog, I can assure you... :cool:.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sergini:
Maybe I'm coming back to 1,X archirom, I enjoy version 2,its awesome but my only "complain", is that battery is not as friendly as Samsung roms, but it will always be like that.

Since I first flashed your rom I gave up testing other roms.

You and sale are awesome developers and always ready to help, we're lucky to have guys like the both of you.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Thanks for kind words :).

Do you guys know this feeling when you're merging all commits from last week, resolving more than a hundred of conflicts, and then flashing first build, prepared for the worst...

...

...

:D

1.7.3 is near...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] nomaj:
OHH! can wait! from moment that i discovered your rom... i'm on it! hope that will be out tonight =)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
Stay tuned, something really big is coming. :victory:

I bet this release will make my day, as always. :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] KingAzzA:
Can't wait for 1.7.3

Currently running temasek 4.4.2 which is awesome but I can't do without the ability of connecting my phone to my TV
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andro_king:
Perfect ! Bookmarked the op ;) got ma popcorn !! Sitting before my pc .. waiting for 1.7.3 :D let the trumpets begin !! :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Oh yeah, it is.

Successfully backported debian from 2.3.1-E. However don't expect release today guys, still some misc issues to fix.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] tezukaryoma:
ad away cant work on 1.7.2, is it?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
ArchiDroid uses dnsmasq built-in CrossBreeder. You should NOT use AdAway on my roms. It's a very bad and slow method to deal with ads.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DroidShift79:
What du you suggest against the ads? Adblock?

...I got used to LBE Security Master.

Should these be good to go?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Nothing. Adblock is already bundled and enabled with CrossBreeder. You should only manage rules in /system/etc/CrossBreeder/dnrd_root/master
[Galaxy S III Android Development] grino:
Hi, I've installed thi rom.

I can't use live wallpapers and onther launcher.

Any solutions?

Tnx,

Flavio.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Bloatware.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] tarmacsurfer:
Afternoon all. I installed the latest version recently (been using an older Omega ROM for months but 4.3 finally lured me over) and whilst I didn't recognise Archi I've used Wanamlite roms on a couple of previous devices.

I tried 2.3 first, had a few problems with apps and did a clean wipe before switching to 1.7, all app problems solved and a new one appeared - on opening the gallery it informs me thusly - "Warning - There is not enough space (-4807MB) in your device memory. Delete some files".

Oddly there is around 4.8GB free, but as you can see the system is not recognising it. I've done a fair bit of googling around and none of the usual problems seem to be the cause, all permissions are correct and the memory itself doesn't appear to be bad as all other aspects are fine (music player is fine etc). Any idea as to what is causing this? I was wondering if it was something to do with the script used to switch the legacy file system to the newer setup?

Other than this error I've been impressed, the DPI changes work really well and the phone is fast, fluid and very responsive in all situations. Thanks for the work Archi :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Hey.

Enter /data/media folder through any root browser, f.e. the one included already in rom.

Delete everything APART from "0" folder.

Why?

Android 4.2+ uses new /data/media/0 folder. If you used 4.1.X before (and you did) you have some junk in /data/media folder, from older roms. You can either move it to new 0 folder or delete, up to you. Then you'll recover all missing space.

Have fun with ArchiDroid :).
[Galaxy S III Android Development] tarmacsurfer:
Thanks for the quick response. Sadly it's no different, the only change is that the message now tells me there's only 6.5GB free and I need to delete things ;)

I might just do a factory reset/format and ground up install, can't see any reason why it'd only be the Gallery app that is the problem.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DroidShift79:
uuuhh.... i don't know whta to flash now...

1.X experimental or 2.x experimental or is 2.3.1 stable, yet.

How's the progress on 1.7.3 ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
2.X-E will always get releases faster because all newly implemented ArchiDroid functions are firstly put it 2.X-E.

Now it's the time of backporting changes into 1.X.

As for now it's nearly finished. Maybe you can see 1.7.3 even today ;).
[Galaxy S III Android Development] adnan7khan:
All the Best Man <3

waiting
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DroidShift79:
I'm excited to see that 1.7.3

Great if it comes along... Meanwhile i take some 2e testrounds
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sergini:
Archi, can I use adflash to change from 2.x to 1.x? Or do you recommend to do it the traditional way?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] newk9:
Only reason I'm going back to 1.x is better camera quality and slightly better battery life.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Of course you can. adflash is universal.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] grino:
So, can't I install them?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
You need a part of bloatware. Why and how to include it, it's widely described in the first post.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DroidShift79:
changelog and stuff added^^

...can't wait to see updated sources :P

Wohoo :P

+- Added AOSP (KitKat) Theme, thanks to @Crussader

Does it include AOSP like quick settings and toggles?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
Go here & check it by yourself. :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Actually it causes a few FCs, I'm looking for a reason.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
Master, does it mean everything works now without any FCs while using KK theme? :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DroidShift79:
i just flashed your clean "base" and "20131123_2305 - KitKat Style" theme. no FC so far. But im missing dark contacts and sms.

:fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
It's more likely to be connected with the bunch of crap which I'm putting into bloatware :p.

I'm flashing a "release candidate" version right now. If no FCs, I'm starting upload.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] KingAzzA:
Got my apps and settings backed up and hitting the refresh option every 5 minutes hoping to see a new number. :eek::eek::eek:Can't wait :eek::eek::eek:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Haha, start hitting after a ~30 minutes, because I'm not uploading yet and it's a big boy, 800 MB :D.

Let me barely test release candidate a bit more.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Meh, system interface just FCed for me :rolleyes:.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
FCs fixed. Upload started... :).
[Galaxy S III Android Development] pricey2009:
Will be giving this Rom a go.. thanks archi :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sergini:
Awesome my friend. Let's put adflash to work again.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] s14sh3r:
Well, this gives me something to do on a fine Sunday evening :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] KingAzzA:
Its 12am Monday and here I am waiting for my download to complete (45 minutes)

Archi can I just check, if I wanted all the bloatware do I just flash the bloateware.zip file or do I have to unzip and change things

PS Thanks for your awesome work
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
If you want all the bloatware it's enough to just flash.

If you however want to select bloatware, you must repack it yourself.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andrecaron:
One question, If I want to update but keep my custom settings on the bloatware apps, how can I do it ? If i copy the .apk files that are on my phone right now modified as I want and copy them to the custom_bloatware folder will I have this result?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S III Android Development] s14sh3r:
I don't use a lot of bloatware, but I do use S Planner. I've been using Titanium Backup and it restores with no issues. I haven't tried it on any other Samsung app though, sorry.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andrecaron:
Thanks. But will titanium backup save system apps correctly ? Well I'll wait if someone know while I download the update, if nobody knows I'll test it myself and holp not to lose every setting again.... lol ...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] s14sh3r:
Gah! XDA is only downloading at about 30kb, so I was downloading from Github. It was almost finished and the download stopped and the file is corrupted. Probably a problem with my connection or something. Now the wife wants to watch Netflix so I'm going to be nice and wait until later to download the ROM.

I haven't used it, but can't you backup and restore with a Samsung account?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andrecaron:
I didnt even know that Samsung account does that...lol... but i think that for exemplo I cant restore the backup of Touchwiz while using touchwiz right? It must have to be on recovery

[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Actually it depends on the rom. I'm always uploading new bloatware coming from newer base because you never know what Samsung put in new versions. Older versions may FC, may not work properly or cause other strange problems. I always suggest flashing bloatware coming from the same base.

There's no easy solution this time. You need to repack manualy or make a script for that. Maybe I'll somehow try to integrate such feature into adflash.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andrecaron:
Yeah youre right..on this update I'll lose my settings because is a new base..thanks a lot

[Galaxy S III Android Development] exjc1986:
Hi i'm on ArchiDroid 2.2.4 and I did not update my modem to MG4, so I still have the old modem. Can you please suggest on how to flash this rom, does it include the new modem in Aroma, if yes, can I just go ahead and select that while flashing or do I need to first flash a modem separately ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
Just remember to select new modem (MK6) in aroma, it would be enough. ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] GrimPivo:
Is the full wipe necessery if I came from another custom 4.3 ROM (Omega)?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
Nope. :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gijs007:
I've just flashed 1.7.3 over 1.7.2 and made a new (customized)bloatware package, but I no longer have the weather widget.

I do have the: AccuweatherWidget apk's from the app folder. Are there any other apk's necessary to make this widget work?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
The answer is: Nova Launcher. Most of samsung stock widgets don't work here, you need stock launcher afaik. ;)

4.3 mk6 update is finally official

http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9300

Cn u see if there r any changes in this..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
It's totally unneccessary to check this out, because, as you can see, it has the same changelist as latest, friday released, open europe firmware (which is the base of 1.7.3). :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] adnan7khan:
"Bootloader" [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION]

Is it Necessary/Better to Update the Bootloader to the latest one??

If yes, is it possible to update it without losing the data etc??
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ScratMan38:
Yes Yes Yes !!!! ArchiDroid 1.7.3 :victory:

Downloaded, now installing.

I tried the dumped MK6, it was a little bit more stable than AD 1.7.2, so I stayed with MK6 for a few days, but I prefer ArchiDroid for it's speed and efficiency, so, I'm back on this great ROM.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kemby13:
Really satisfied with 1.7.3, only 2 things would've been better if u ask me. That is black themed message and contacts apps.. I know that is theme related, but anyways... I noticed that inverted google translate needs an update, everything else is top notch :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
So go here & ask for a change. :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ScratMan38:
Big issue there with the bloatware package : it does not install the apps.

I tried both my customized version and the unmodified full version, same results : no bloat is installed. Nothing.

Tried several times, with full system + data wipes, reboot after ROM install before installing bloat... no way, it doesn't work. :crying:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
Have you tried with the newest bloatware package for MK6? If so, that's weird indeed.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Jamson85:
Have been using 1.7.3 for a couple of hours now and loving it!!

Like the new theme.. the little bugs of earlier in the camera app, contacts and dialer have been cleared everything is in the right position now

Furthermore respons of the rom is great and smooth, (wake up) lags I haven't found yet..

Haven't installed the bloatware so I don't know about the problems there but for now the rom is working like a charm

Will test battery life today to see if that's improved also

Thnx for the update archi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ScratMan38:
Off course I did. I downloaded both the MK6 based ROM and the corresponding MK6 bloatware package version.

Now trying an other method : extract everything and manually copy it to /system folder
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gijs007:
I'm using the samsung stock launcher..

I think you might be right.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Evaldino:
Nice looking changelog (though I'm not experienced to use all the Debian goodies)!

One thing I regret:

- Removed Foxhound All Black Theme

I really liked it a lot.. White background is hurting my eyes :crying:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
I may reconsider, this was just because I don't want to spam package with themes, it's already 800 MB big.

BTW, I found my little bloatware derp. I don't know how it could happen :eek:.

Uploading fixed pack.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Bloatware: ArchiDroid XXUGMK6 XDA

It should work now.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] newk9:
I'm having a problem with adflash/debian.

I did a full wipe since coming from 2.X-E.

That whoami output is pretty weird. It should just say root.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] exjc1986:
Thanks a lot. :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
It's in framework. If you want to use it -> https://raw.github.com/JustArchi/Ar...k-res/res/drawable-hdpi/default_wallpaper.jpg

True. Fixed in https://github.com/JustArchi/ArchiDroid/commit/b43b06dc07cc9bafe91288e98f47fa13ad4559ea . Samsung doesn't care about proper whoami output :rolleyes:.

[MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION]

ROM looks good, I only have one issue, but I had it on the previous ROM as well. If I install Yank555 with the ROM, when I plug my phone into USB it causes my USB to quit working and I get a power surge notification. The fix has been for me to flash Yank555 by itself and lower the USB charging voltage. Not a big problem and I haven't seen anyone else mention it. Just thought I'd mention it.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
I'll fix it with new Yank's kernel :).

Updated from 1.7.2 to 1.7.3, why my phone gets warm all the time, even without running anything and the screen is off?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Check with cool tool most resource-expensive task. Probably third-party issue.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] abdulhamid1978:
Is screen mirroring working in this ROM? Really trying to find a stable 4.3 ROM with working screen mirroring.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] enebro77:
Allready installed 1.7.3. Perfect, as always :D

Just a couple of things,

- I am having problems with the GPS. It was not detected at all.

So I decided to re-install the ROM without wipes ()only format cache and Dalvik) and it worked. Any idea of why this happens ?

- Voice recognition. With the stock version I was able to speak and automatically 'type' the words in whatsapp. With this version I can not find the icon in the keyboard which activated the recognition. How should I activate it ?

Many, many, many thanks in advance
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
1. No clue. It should work instantly.

2. It works for me with google voice (search). If you're looking for s-voice from samsung, it's in bloatware.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sergini:
Archi, it's fine if I delete github folder from /Archidroid? Cuz it takes almost 3gb! If I delete it will I still be able to use adflash?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DroidShift79:
Well, flashed 1.7.3 right after a full wipe. (no inverted gapps; 240dpi)

I have ticked stock keyboard, but it did not install (flashed again, cos of this. to double check -> same result)

Also flashed full bloatware right away in same flashing session (no reboot between)

...meanwhile, flashed 3rd time (320dpi), same result. now installed google keyboard afterwards.

//EDIT:

just noticed it was there, but in the setup assistent only the voice input showed up, so i needed to skip that.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Of course. However if you use adflash with git mode then it will need to redownload whole repo.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kirtesh.k:
How to change DPI after installation. i am not liking the 240.﻿
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kemby13:
I had a similar problem with inverted facebook and messenger, they simply don't install (tryed twice, 280/320dpi). Everything else i selected installs without any problems. Anyway, i failed to find the cause of the problem. It could even be a faulty download, dunno... So i restored backups with TB for now...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] guerouig:
hi everyone, I'm new to Archie's and his own way of doing things. so bear with me as a newbie. I'm trying to lighten the bloatware 334 Mb; after deleting what's useless to me from custombloatware folder and then selecting and adding to 7 Zip archive, a zip file is created but its size seems to be almost 650 Mb? anyone care to help here.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] dolceka:
I have got a similair problem... After increasing the USB recharge voltage via Boeffla Kernel 5.1 Beta my mobile was not recharging at all even via A/C while the recharging sign appeares everytime I connect the charger "Via USB or A/C" and I did everything possible till I changed the cable with Galaxy S Advance and the problem has been solved... And my cable worked very well too on the Galaxy S Advance... I don't know what happened but it was annoying :(
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mindeboy:
Hi, you copied stuff from bloatware folder to custom bloatware folder so I think that's why it doubled in size?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] guerouig:
oh yeah, thx, but should I keep them both or should I keep only custom bloatware?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] dolceka:
If u will restore the custom bloatware only and u really don't need the full bloatware any more for any furthar modification so delete the full bloatware folder.

---------- Post added at 12:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:09 AM ----------

Congratulations [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION] for your new ROM mate, I wish you the best luck forever :)

Gonna try it soon, I am just busy for the time being... My dad died so please I wish you guys pray for him with mercy and heaven ISA
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Up to you. If you delete bloatware folder then of course you won't be able to flash full bloatware back, only your custom one.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Gonzakpo:
Do you know if this ROM is compatible with the patched modems by zuluman? Because he uploaded patched kernels too, but I was wondering if your firmware default kernel has those patches too.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] dolceka:
[MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION].. Is this ROM supercharged or not mate !? I wish u still consider supercharger V6 as u told me

Downloading... ZzzZzzZzZZzzzZzZz
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Supercharger doesn't offer anything to the ArchiDroid at the moment.

If you prefer to have placebo scripts in your init go ahead.
