Check the md5 of you're download, this isn't normal

cannot repeat this with Poweramp, what kernel are you running?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aaroncal:
the MD5 checks out good I have tried to flash several time to no avail

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Danvdh:
Hmmm interesting, What recovery are you running and what ROM are you coming from? I assume you are full wiping the system, caches and performing a clean flash? What modem are you running and bootloader? Did you choose a different kernel in AROMA or are you just sticking with the stock mg2 kernel?

No reason it should not work, might be time for you to odin back to stock and reroot for some fresh partitions and a newer bootloader/modem, might be something behind the scenes going on that loserskater, myself and enewman cannot repeat. best I can do is throw out suggestions

here are my steps if you are unsure how to do this, (I'm not saying that you need to this, but it does give you a fresh clean system :) )

1) Backup all user apps and data with titanium backup, DO NOT BACKUP SYSTEM APP'S (if you have it)

2) Backup internal storage onto PC

3) Odin to stock latest

4) wait for phone to boot then reboot into stock recovery and full wipe and clear all cache

5) reboot and root the phone and install custom recovery

6) put what you need on your internal storage back onto your phone via usb

7) your phone is now ready to flash

Flashed on my girlfriends phone, runs fantastic and she loves it. Nice work btw. only strange issue that that she's experiencing is just random reboots. Hyper drive also had the same issue. Everything wiped with charmin ultra and with and without titanium restores. Anyone else see or experience this.. Bootloader and radio updated, pre-packed kernel nothing else done to it. ?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Danvdh:
Hi there

How did you go about updating the bootloader? This is not a known issue and it's definitely isolated to you're girlfriends phone, is her battery holding a charge ok?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
If flashing the bootloader or modem goes badly, what's the best way to revert? Just restoring a good nandroid backup is not enough, right?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Nucleartx:
Modem can usually be re flashed in recovery. Boot loader flash going bad is what we call a paper weight, has to be sent off for jtag service.

May sound weird, but have her get a replacement SIM card. I had that problem and went through 3 phones and 2 batteries before figuring it out.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Whoa! Has anyone had problems flashing the new bootloader or modem?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] danvee:
Nope. Not a bit. Did 3 S3s within the last week or so....

Sometimes it happens whenever I unlock the phone now. Imo messenger and greenify. Maybe my phone is just too cluttered now. I did a full wipe before this happened.

As of now no they are working on that not sure when they will add it tho so keep and eye on those links for more updates!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] osdave:
Great Rom! Just hit thanks and donated. I actually just got my S3 a couple weeks ago after my HTC OneX died (decided to get the S3 for $.97 instead of the expensive S4). I was a little worried about the S3 not keeping up for the next 2 years, but with Roms like this, I think I will be fine! Thanks again!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Mordred69:
Loving and rocking this ROM. Just wanted to bring up a few issues I have encountered.

1. YouTube App disappearing whenever I flash/upgrade ROM from Aroma. Also disappeared when I tried to change the YouTube MOD. I had to install from Market. None of the YouTube MODs will work.

2. KToonsez (Sp?) kernel caused random reboots. Reverted to Stock (Better battery life and no Reboots)

3. Issues with Multi window causing FC (Since, corrected by fix a few posts back - THANK YOU)

Everything else is running smoothly so far. I really dig this ROM and have installed it to a few friends' S3 phones. They also love it: Stock feel with tweaks and mods is the way to go.

Question:

Is (any of) the email app(s) here able to poll and sync IMAP (push email), rather than call in the server as POP3 every x amount of minutes? Programs like MailDroid push mail immediately, and that's what I use, but my thinking is... if my phone already has an app that should handle email, why add more app layers? I have a few important email addresses and most of them need to be on IMAP due to sensitive information needing to be addressed in a timely manner.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BakaNeko59:
What would be the reason to flash the new bootloader and modem? Do they provide better performance, or what?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] enewman17:
1, I flash this a lot I've never encountered the YouTube not installing or disappearing. But we'll look at.

2. KT kernel? I use the stock kernel as well in my test I didn't have any reboots but my phone seems to always run the best on stock.

I'm not sure about the email. I think the aosp email does IMAP
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Mordred69:
Hi enewman17,

I had detailed 14 pages back how I got to this YouTube error. Here's the link.

Anout KT, yes, the KT Kernel. I tried it looking for better battery life but no go. Reverted back to Stock. I seem to have better performance overall with it, just like you.

About email, yes, the email apps do handle IMAP... but they don't Push email.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] suprtrukr425:
First of all, Thank you for this ROM. Seriously, this is imho the best i747 ROM right now. Great work!

Secondly, I'm not sure if this may be your problem or not, but when you flash mods/themes with aroma you have to make sure that the apps that you have installed are checked to be installed in the apps section of aroma. I found out that if you have an app installed (e.g. facebook, youtube, maps, ect.) and you don't check the install box then aroma will uninstall that app. Hopefully this helps.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Mordred69:
Thanks for your reply! I am sorry to say this does not help at all due to the fact that I had mentioned that I had changed the app to a modded one and THEN it disappeared. I had then tried to go back to Stock YouTube app and it would not install. Now every time I run AROMA installer for any change, even if I have the YouTube app selected (any mod or stock), the app will not install. Furthermore, it will delete the Play Store installed app, too.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
It sounds like many people are preferring the stock kernel over KT. Is the same true for the Faux Kernel?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] enewman17:
I'm really sorry, I've been through the install script and everything I simply can not find a reason why your having these issues. But yes if you don't have the app selected in aroma I assume you don't want it so I made the script delete everything even market apps. I have to do this because the modded ones won't show if there are YouTube apps in the data/app.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Mordred69:
Right, and it makes sense: if it is not selected, it should be removed. Thanks for checking anyway! I install it from the Market whenever I need it, so next time, I will just re-wipe and install. That should clear any issues.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kingwp1:
I promise this isn't a complaint about battery life. It just starts out sounding like one...

I was having an issue with RILJ causing battery drain so I started doing my research to find the cause and hopefully a fix. A page here on XDA somewhere recommended "GetRIL." I was told if your baseband and RIL don't match, it can be the cause of the RILJ battery drain. GetRIL can supposedly fix this problem. So I downloaded the app and ran it on this rom. The app told me "No RIL exists." I'm running S3Rx with a clean install of version 2.0 with stock kernel, and a dirty install of 2.1 on top.

I'm no dev, but is this accurate; how can there be no RIL? From my brief research I think I've found that the RIL is what makes the actual phone work (not the S3 itself, but the actual phone part of it). My phone works fine.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] enewman17:
Yeah I promise you the RIL files are there, the app just might not support the S3. On the few occasions I've had the RILJ wakelock a reboot fixed it, if not look at your accounts and see if there is something stuck and trying to sync.

New KT build out today, for anyone who might have flashed it and had issues and would like to revert back to the stock MG2 kernel quickly

STOCK MG2 KERNEL (Latest official stock kernel from the new AT&T build)

sorry if this has been answered, but I can't find it anywhere in the phone options... how to turn on call recording???
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Caliesv:
Should just place a call. And when it connects, look at the screen and have the option to record.

(⊙＿⊙)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] soblecram:
that is what i thought too, but nothing shows up on screen or in options
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] selw0nk:
Did you check off the phone recording option in the aroma installer?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] niqjones:
Is there a way to add take a screenshot to the power menu?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Danvdh:
Just hold home and power for a few seconds ;) more convenient and faster!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] soblecram:
Sure did.... Going to try to reflash the ROM and try again.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] enewman17:
Just do the mods only. Mind you it does not work when connected to Bluetooth.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tbird57:
I think the power menu is more convenient,one hand one finger ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] enewman17:
The Palm swipe is even more convenient IMO. Just turn motion on in the settings.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tbird57:
Yes, that method also ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jack man:
Seems like I've read about a camera problem here before but couldn't find it. Let me briefly explain. Out of curiosity, I flashed back to 100% stock then got the new update. As usual, realized it was a typical at&t update so I rooted and went right to S3Rx 2.1. After being on S3Rx 1.1 for a while recently, 2.1 didn't feel as smooth to me (and I don't use multiwindow) do I decided to go back to 1.1. (assuming the OTA update flashed new bootloaders) Is it right that the camera fails with the latest bootloaders?

Again, sorry if this is repetitive.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] raylzq.cn:
Thanks for your work. Will this support I747M?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] enewman17:
Yes, so apparently the new bootloaders and modem break the camera with old kernels, Try the newest stock kernel http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23060877490001703

Awesome ROM! As far as new features, is there anyway to get expandable notifications on all notifications (not just the top one)like in Android 4.2? Not a big deal if this isn't possible. Great work guys!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] enewman17:
Well... 4.1.2 has expandable notifications but the particular notification has to be expandable... make sense. Then it takes a two finger reverse pinch to expand it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kofrad:
I just had something interesting happen to me. I have been using my phone with it plugged in to the wall charger and noticed it is charged enough to make it through the rest of the night so I unplugged it. Right after unplugging I saw a dialog box pop up that said "Switching from wired charging to wireless charging". I hit OK and dismissed the dialog before I could think to take a screenshot. Trying to replicate this produces no results and I can confirm my phone is not charging through magic - as much as I would like it.

Has anyone else seen this before? Might it have been caused by something the firmware update or the rom?

It doesn't seem to be effecting anything. I just wanted to let you know about this little bug I found - if it even is one.

Any way to get back button kill? Instead of the menu?

(⊙＿⊙)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] melvinaury:
For what I read in the new base that is reserved for multiwindow.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] HappyPlato:
Did you go to Setting, then Display, turn on "Long Press kill"?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tbird57:
He is asking for the back key option instead of the menu key,like it was before the multi Window was built into 4.1.2
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Yeah, I miss that feature too!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] suprtrukr425:
OK, so I'm not crazy then. I did not have this happen on my phone, I did however have this exact situation happen when unplugging my wife's phone which has never been rooted and running latest firmware. I also hit the OK button without thinking first.

On a side note, tbird57 your signature is awesome. Blew my mind the first time I saw it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
If multi window is disabled, it would be nice if long press back to kill could be enabled.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] enewman17:
Loserskater tried to do it on dTm but it's really wonky from what he said and it won't ever work like intended because there is just too much going on with multi-window.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Caliesv:
It's just hard to use the menu for a Google search. It keeps killing my launcher. Lol

Then it takes a few tries to get the search up.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] melvinaury:
It also happen to me two times. I change my the cable and don't received any more message.

Great ROM. Good battery life, but still a few issues....

Got the call recording working (kinda - still only records other side of the conversation, but good enough for what I need - as FYI Dandroid was working 100% both sides - using Record My Calls and have tried all different settings as well, need it to record as I go, not having to press record everytime because I never know when I will need to record the call, and sometimes it is too late to push the button..)

Can't get tethering to work, all my other devices can see the hotspot and connect, but no internet connectivity is passed through. (have tried all security settings and password types, even left open...)

Also, has anyone been able to toggle off LTE? 90% of my time is spent in areas without LTE and I would just as soon force it off as to save the phone from trying to find it and burning battery...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
This app records both sides of a conversation perfectly even when using Bluetooth.

For mr the WIFI is working perfect too.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gots54:
Great ROM! Everything seems to be working for me except wifi direct transfers. I can receive but I can't send. It worked perfect when I was on Devils reject versions 1-7. I'm on s3rx 2.0 now but can't get it to send. Files just just sit sit saying waiting to send. Verified on my buddies S3 as well on the same rom. We can send files over blue tooth however.

I'm downloading 2.1 now but it doesn't look like it's been reported or hence fixed.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] enewman17:
Ok I can confirm. Go back and install all share. It works after installing that. I'll figure out which apk is responsible, but for now that fixes it.

It's the WfdBroker.apk that is causing the issue. I'll make sure it get's packed into the system for the next update.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] soblecram:
Thanks to everyone answering the questions about the call recording.. works great now (Using skvalex call recorder so everything is automagic)

Still not having any luck with tethering (either wifi or usb). I create the hotspot and the laptop/chromebook/tablet/etc can connect to it, but has no internet, but yet my phone is working fine....

can anyone suggest some things to try? I have tried different apps (foxfi,barnacle,etc) to no avail, have tried all the kernels that ship with 2.1. And yes, it has worked prior when I was on CM.... Even did the odin flash and reflashed this rom, still nothing.

Thanks....
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Yes, skvalex's Call Recorder app is simply PERFECT! It is the only solution I've found for successfully recording calls over Bluetooth.

Using this ROM's built-in tethering feature or the clockworkmod tether app, both work successfully for me.

I would just like to add a side note about the languages available in the ROM. As the ROM is made for North American market, it might be interesting to add French (Canada) in the available languages selectable in Language and input. French (France) and French (Canada) don't have the same keyboard -- an AZERTY one vs a QWERTY one. I don't know if changing the language also has other impact on the ROM. Nevertheless, I enabled French (Canada) in /system/csc/language.xml. I replaced the two fr occurences by fr_CA:
