sorry about double post just trying to make this rom work i flashed three times already but alway get bootloops on the splash screen thanks in advance
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] KevinGee:
What ROM are you coming from?

Sent from my phone
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ryezen:
I don't think Aroma is actually flashing the selected kernel(s). I don't use TWRP, but use CWRM version 6.0.3.1 and have never had a problem before (I'm kinda old school). Also, tried a clean install (full wipe) with this release multiple times, and every time the setup wizard hangs in the first few steps. I can exit it and add my Google account manually afterward, but my apps don't auto-restore. Anyone else seeing these types of problems?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hallstevenson:
Just flashed the latest and got an error message:

All I can do is select "Next" and reboot. Let's see how it goes !! :)

I do think it stopped at the above error vs just skipping on to the next item(s). I selected more than what it listed though I can't give exact details.

========

Edit: On the last screen, I unchecked "Reboot" to back into Recovery. When I try and re-flash, now it tells me:

Better check the MD5 ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NeWCuLTKiNG:
Something with Backup assistant is hanging try not selecting this or if we have to we can use an old setup wizard
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hallstevenson:
It did it AGAIN and I did verify the MD5 and it's good. Failed at the same point and when I try and re-flash, it tells me the ZIP file is now "bad".

Since it's indicating that it's keyboard related and there's only (2) keyboard options, emoji and Swype, I chose both of them this time whereas the first time I did NOT.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] unhappybirthday:
Same thing happened to me installing verizon16. I ran the install two times, first time choosing KT747 and second choosing stock. It did not flash the boot image either time. I manually flashed a kernel and it booted but I found that many apps I did NOT select in aroma were present (along with text on my toggles when I had selected no text).

I did notice an error in aroma both times:

file_getprop: failed to stat "tmp/aroma/keyboard.prop":

no such file or directory
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Did you dl the new version posted last night?

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] HarleyChick:
I don't know about the kernels, but I definitely have had the problems with getting hung up in the setup wizard. I try not to auto-restore anything, so I can't help you there.

Its such a great ROM - all of the problems I've had, have been with the set-up, not the running of the ROM itself.

:cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hallstevenson:
Yeap. I downloaded it this morning. I think my SD card is dying.... I tried to flash a couple other ROMs that I have on it and they all are failing. Copying it to the PC now and will re-format it so I can hopefully get something running.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] juancaperez2000:
just odin back to stock LF2 then root and unlock, do i need to be on MF! before flash the rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
its funny i came in here tooting the MOAR horn and now where hitting a never before seen issue with the ROM.

i too tried flashing and hit a roadblock..dont know what it was but it didnt flash at all...it hung in either AROMA or after the reboot of setting up AROMA.

back to MD1 for me. ill keep an eye on the thread tho to see whats up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] krazie1:
Hey [MENTION=2003161]NeWCuLTKiNG[/MENTION] do you know why my network says empty?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
No. Just do a factory data reset and make sure you have an unlocked bootloader and root.

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY

---------- Post added at 04:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:48 PM ----------

There's only an issue with backup assistant. I don't use it cause it's worthless. Just don't choose it in aroma.

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
i didnt select it either...its a waste of an app.

actually i barely selected anything..im gonna give it another go tho. i just redownloaded. gonna check md5's and load it on my sd. :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] juancaperez2000:
i am root and unlocked bootloader, but everytime i flash and reboot, i never pass the splash screen and boot loops
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ryezen:
Is Auto-restore apps broken in build 16? I really like that feature, as I don't rely on TIBU for restoring apps (not truly a "clean" install if you do it that way). Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] qdtphotog:
? about light manager

I just installed this rom for the first time. Pretty cool stuff so far. I do have a question about the built in light manager app: how come I can't add another app to the list? the option is grayed out and does nothing when I tap on it (see screenshot). I'd like to be able to add apps that I actually use like Google Voice. BTW, I did update it to the latest version via the play store. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
How long are you letting it sit after? 1st boot can take a while. If it still doesn't come on after say 10 minutes you may have a bad dl.

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY

---------- Post added at 05:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:59 PM ----------

I think that's only in the paid version.

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] qdtphotog:
Oh, I didn't realize it had a paid version. That makes sense. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Double check in the play store as I'm not 100% on that.

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NeWCuLTKiNG:
Let me check aroma might have something amiss that's what I get for moving things all around should be an easy patch and I'll upload a fixed rom

found the issue in updater-script

if

file_getprop("/tmp/aroma/keyboard.prop","item.0.27") == "1"

should be

if

file_getprop("/tmp/aroma/apps.prop","item.0.27") == "1"

quick fix and you'll be good to go you can add to the rom zip with 7zip if you know how or wait for full rom upload

Extract this zip and add to rom with 7zip or winrar compression store
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hallstevenson:
How were others not running into this ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Here I found out why- it needs to be on alternating mode.

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] juancaperez2000:
just re downloaded, check MD5 flash and get same problem, kind of weird
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] qdtphotog:
Thanks for finding that. It works now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NeWCuLTKiNG:
anyone selecting swype keyboard the installer will fail everything after the selection will fail rom uploading or get the fix from above if you aren't afraid of adding to the rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hallstevenson:
I'm not 100% certain, but the first time I can't say I selected the Swype keyboard but it still failed. I never use it and if I don't, I won't install it either if I have the option.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] omair2005:
on the notification pulldown menu i'm getting "empty". as well as on top of the stock lockscreen. it usually says Verizon Wireless .. :confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NeWCuLTKiNG:
Any error I make in the updater-script like I had with keyboard.prop instead of apps.prop may cause the whole script to fail. When I moved keyboards from keyboard selection I missed that :crying:

I just rebuilt uploading now about 3 hrs replaced backup assistant and setup wizard with ones from mb1 hopefully that will fix it getting stuck, I selected everything there is all installing and setup wizard just started fine with backup assistant all should be perfect again

:cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NeWCuLTKiNG:
I noticed this also being looked into it never did this before
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hallstevenson:
You posted a META-INF.zip file twice - is there a difference ? Just want to make sure and get the right one.

Also, we can manually edit updater-script as well, yes ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] phatreno:
wifi not working

just flashed 5.0.1 from previous version of Moar,full wipe .my issue is wifi wont turn on ,hit the toggle it goes to on position the instantly back to off .using kt747 kernel no themes when I flash my nandroid of previos M.O.A.R it works fine. anyone else having issues or know a fix for this.THANKS
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NeWCuLTKiNG:
They are the same and yes you can edit the updater-script inside the zip change swype

keyboard . prop to apps.prop

Select kernel only in rom selection the modules didn't flash
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hallstevenson:
The META-INF.zip that you uploaded only has aroma-config and updater-script in the android subfolder. That same folder in the ROM itself has two add'l files and folder: /aroma, update-binary, and update-binary-installer.

If one replaced the ROM's folder with this one, it wouldn't work out well, would it ? :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lennie paz:
Can I dirty flash v16 over v14?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FingerBlastJ:
Bluetooth

Bluetooth doesnt work on the release from 7/8/13. i had it backed up in tibu and nothing. any fix for it in the 7/9 release?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lilafleisch:
Bluetooth worked for me in both of the new builds...only problem I had was the first time I tried to connect it the settings menu froze..had to do a batter pull and go into Bluetooth settings again and manually add the device for phone and media...I also would not suggest restoring any system apps through tibu.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FingerBlastJ:
im not getting anything come up in the bluetooth menu, searching scanning beng discoverable, nothing works. in previous builds i'd find my car and my headset, not on this build. what should i do besides gong back to moar 4?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] omair2005:
what kernel are you guys using? maybe try a different one? stock,lean,kt?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NeWCuLTKiNG:
Android File Host:MOAR v5.0.1 Verizon 17

Changelog : 07/10/13

Let's try this again

Fixed wrong prop in updater-script keeping it from installing full rom

Moved some more apps into the rom and out of aroma

Sorry for the trouble let's go again :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NeWCuLTKiNG:
It will only replace the files and won't delete anything that's not there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FingerBlastJ:
im using stock. everytime i use any other kernel with this rom my phone lags.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] omair2005:
yeah you have to play with the build.prop settings. they can conflict with kernels that have some of those tweaks built in or at different values.. which is why stock kernel is best with moar. unless you know what your doing, you can change up the build.prop and try a different kernel.

on that note, my bluetooth seems to be working fine.. i'll test it more soon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FingerBlastJ:
unfortunately, i dont know what im doing when it comes to build prop lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] krazie1:
Will that fix the empty word being in notification bar?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] theroar:
Us Cellular R530 as well?

Rocking M.O.A.R on my Sprint S3 and was looking to put it on my wifes USC S3, the R530. I am posting here because I am currently using a liquid smooth for usc which is found in the Vzw orignal development thread. I am guessing the hardware must be pretty similar, but it is just a guess.

It would be nice if there were a USC S3 area, but at this point the post for it are spread all over XDA. Thank goodness for search.. =)

Any tips?

Thanks

Anyone have issues with their alarm not working. I can't get mine to work.

Can we dirty flash over v16? Also I'm having gps issues on v16. Did a clean install.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pbman1953:
file in the SD card shows ver 17

About phone shows Ver 16

What should i do if anything
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lennie paz:
I asked the same question, and no one answered.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hallstevenson:
Ignore it or if it bothers you, edit the build.prop file to change the entry from 16 to 17.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pbman1953:
File location please

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] unhappybirthday:
/system/build.prop

(You will have to mount your system read/write to change this file. A root aware file manager will do this.)

Careful with your changes and make sure you don't change the file permissions.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pbman1953:
all set

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Dirty flash should be ok. But if an issue comes up you'll need to do a full wipe.

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
Why dirty flash 16 when it was a bit problematic wouldn't u want to start a new with 17?

Anyways 17 is money thus far! good job as usual NCK!

The ONLY kink I've found is the long press feature found in M.M.C does not work. Other than that all seems to be working just fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NeWCuLTKiNG:
this one is odd you have to select menu though it's already checked. Most everything needs to be selected on first boot, clock brightness slider ect

Anyone who is inquiring about a dirty flash, that is your choice I can't give accurate support if you run into issues. With that said try it if issues arise clean up and start fresh.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FingerBlastJ:
so far in 17 aroma froze twice, still cant get 17 to install all the way
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NeWCuLTKiNG:
Check your md5 17 should install perfectly
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
that is weird BUT it got the job done..thank you!

its true it installs just like its supposed too. maybe u missed a step FingerBlastJ?

always when flashing a new ROM i wipe everything PLUS i format my data/cache/system and INTERNAL SD

installs flawlessly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Why clean internal sd? I have like 8gb of stuff on my internal. I would never wipe it.

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FingerBlastJ:
i got it to finally install, you basically have to choose what you want quickly before it decides to freeze. Also build 17 has bluetooth fully functional. 1 issue i noticed about all build that i keep forgetting to mention is the dialer. When its in landscape mode it goes to stock dialer, but in portrait its the theme you chose.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SoCalSpecialist:
i NEVER save anything of value on my internal SD everything goes to my external card. dumb **** like game saves and stuff i can re-input goes to my internal card.

maybe just a matter of preference, but i flash between AOSP and TW alot so i wipe it all just to be sure that nothing gets left behind to make things quirky.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] omair2005:
when going from aosp to tw or vice versa, it helps to minimize errors.. i keep my stuff on my extsdcard always just in case.

I'm running 16 is it a must to upgrade? only thing that i noticed was 'empty' text and sometimes the capacitative buttons (menu and back) stay lit when watching video
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
I guess it makes sense. Nothing in my phone is of any real importantance. I keep my backups and themes and stuff on my internal. I have 30 gb of music on my external. But everything is on my hard drive. I don't save too much on my external cause I had 1 get corrupted and lost a bunch of stuff. I gave up on aosp roms last august. No interest in them anymore. I got over being a flashaholic. But I've never completely wiped my internal.

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] samsgun357:
OK guys,

Q. Can I dirty flash?

A. Yes you can, anytime, if you want too, its your device. Usually incremental upgrades are fine with a dirty flash. Not so much when the base is changed. And as NCK said, if you have issues, reflash with a full douche!

Q. ROM isn't booting, stuck on boot

A. Usually the first boot can take some time with all Roms. Larger the ROM the longer it will probably take to write all files etc and boot. If its not booting after say 5mins, pull the battery then power the device up. That usually does the trick

*I recognize there were some issues with the previous version that could have been causing this* this is just some general advice

Q. Can I have ice cream for breakfast?

A. Y'all are all grown, well at least most of you. Its probably not the best choice but your body, your decision.

*the last question is kind of an analogy

The first 4 letters of analogy spell anal lol.

Love, peace and fish grease my dudes and at least one dudette!

Lies, spewed poetically from galaxy S3!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MrHeyWilly:
My drop down menu still says empty. Does anybody know how to fix it. I.installed the new version 17. On my nexus I usually copy a file to fix /data . Can I do the same here?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] joshua5683:
I was loving this rom but my pulldown said Empty so I flashed Remove Carrier Label.zip and now my SystemUI is screwed :p pretty nice rom though. I was lag free with a cool theme. Also my lockscreen still says empty even after flashing that, how can I get rid of this empty stuff?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] samsgun357:
I think there is a little more to it in TW Roms.

You are going to have to reflash, sorry.

Honestly though guys, does it mess with the ROM at all?

I'm sure NCK will drop a fix soon so just hang tight.

Lies, spewed poetically from galaxy S3!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] joshua5683:
No problem. No I don't mind keeping it right now, I would like to though if it is possible at the moment.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MrHeyWilly:
I thought there was an easy fix like on the nexus. Lol which is the only reason I asked. I can wait until he fixes it.

The fact nck is uploading a rom each day to fix problems. I think that's pretty ducking awesome.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] igloohed73:
Yeah I found that out the hard way too a few builds back.If your talking about the "Remove Carrier Label.zip in the op.Its for Sprint users.;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NeWCuLTKiNG:
Hey everyone the new empty carrier label is all new. I even flashed old Roms to try to remedy this is a carrier made occurance that I've never seen I'll see what I can do
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SqueezeAndRun:
Loving the ROM! The only issue I'm really having is with the Empty label instead of it saying Verizon and the installer being a little buggy. Other than that, things are awesome. Seriously the best battery life I've ever gotten. Keep up the good work :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] omair2005:
i think its just a visual glitch.. doesn't affect anything i believe..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] joshua5683:
Is there any way to customize the aosp mms app? Like change the color of the message frames and change it to stacked organization rather than on the sides? I think I've seen these as options on a different mms app but don't know how to do it in this one. Using regular mms by the way, not inverted.

LTE not working

decided to jump back into touchwiz this morning and flashed MOAR. LTE isn't working for me tried re flashing, switching kernels, toggling data and no luck. is there something i'm missing? Thanks in advance
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
The icon in moar doesn't show lte. It's just the 4g icon.

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cjohnsonthe2nd:
I get that but it only shows 3g. I'll try reflashing one more time if that doesn't work ill try re downloading the rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Signal has nothing to do with rom. It's the radio. Did you flash the updated radio and rpm?

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cjohnsonthe2nd:
I flashed the latest AIO firmware im assuming that included radio and rpm... I flashed invisiblek's AIO VRBMF1 firmware.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Try flashing the mb1 and see if your signal is better. I'm still on mb1.

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NeWCuLTKiNG:
This is a gray area with a port. If the ROM doesn't install properly or framework gets changed network won't work as its supposed to. There are many framework files that affect network interaction. The ROM doesn't actually change radio settings but the ROM does affect the interaction of your phone to network. Everyone downloading a file over 1GB should definitely check the md5 of your download to the md5 listed on afh there have been many mismatches. Dev-host is looking better for ROM hosting but costs $50 a year as afh is free I've had a $5 donation so far for using devhost in the future so if I get enough I will use them
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
I've never had an issue with signal. Only when I updated from mb1 to mf1. I've used 3 ports and never had any issues. But I guess every phone will be different and you learn something new all the time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NeWCuLTKiNG:
Fix for empty in pulldown coming gotta fix the lock screen also
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ryezen:
Had to restore Nandroid of Rls 14 here. I just kept getting too many issues trying to do a clean install of 17. Not sure if it was Aroma options I was choosing, or what, but I kept having to battery pull and re-flash because phone would just hang forever on the MOAR boot ani screen. Even the couple times I was successfully able to flash, when I tried to flash using just the Morphology option after a full install, it would break the ROM every time. I just pulled a working MMS from another ROM and I'm super happy again using v14.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NeWCuLTKiNG:
Sounds like I need to remove messenger option from aroma. If anyone selects tw or aosp the database has to be wiped or messenger won't work. Too many options not working out gonna pull them out so ROM size is under 1gb sounds like a lot of corrupt downloads are happening. Please everyone verify the md5 of your download if it doesn't match you have a corrupt rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ryezen:
Honestly, for me, perfection would be RLS 14 with the Aroma crashes and MMS fixed. Other than those two issues, that release was flawless IMHO.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheDriller:
Go to settings/more settings/mobile network/access point names and make sure that the vzwinternet lte setting is selected. Mine got stuck on 3g too until I chose that
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hallstevenson:
Just my opinion, but if an app is available (especially when it's free !!) in the Play Store and I was building a ROM, I wouldn't include them. :D
