I'm having one of those "not really a big deal" issues:

I use the email app to connect to an Exchange server. When scrolling through an email, the screen flashes black, like it's redrawing the page every time it moves.

I've only seen this since installing the ROM and I haven't seen it in any other app.

Is anyone else seeing this behavior?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zrx12mike:
I have been playing with this ROM for a few days now. Very nice and problem free from my use. Thank you for your time and effort. NICE JOB! My DD!:good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Yep., can't remember to do everything. I'll provide a very small patch to those who don't know how to edit the build.prop, I use root explorer, personally.

Thank you Sir! This is highly appreciated!

Hmm very strange indeed, I use gmail so I delete the email .apk, but let me install it so I can see what you mean and hopefully squash the bugger :). Do you know by chance of another ROM that has this same issue, or a ROM that doesn't have this issue, maybe I can find something I did or did not do. Have you by chance tried deleting the email.apk and installing one from a ROM that has it working correctly? Hopefully I can see from a ROM that had it working of something I did wrong or possibly need to change to fix. Isn't there some sort of exchange hack? Perhaps I can include this for you in v1.5 of wanted.

On a side note, I see a few are missing an option to add audio MODs, I'd like to include some of these audio boosts into Aroma for v1.5 , just wondering what is preferred or wanted as I haven't yet used any of these, I think that Viper and Ac!d are the popular ones I believe. If you'd like this or anything else added please let me know so I can do my best to get it included for you into the next version.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
I remember seeing that email issue somewhere else. If I remember correctly the fix was to uncheck GPU rendering and set animations to .5 under developer options. Don't know if that will fixthe issue as I don't use email either...

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Thank you Sir! Perhaps the new code I added to the build.prop to force GPU rendering rather than bogging down the CPU, maybe something isn't playing nice with that .apk.

@ NoTolerance can u try changing the animation and also play around worth the "force GPU rendering" in setiings > developer options and see if any of those things fix the issue please. Also do you recall if you had this problem in v1.2 or is it new since v1.3? If it worked in the previous version then I can go over what I've changed to possibly find a permanent or temp. fix
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Not sure about signal meters but AOSP theme will work. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Nomad1600:
Mine are gray.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
Andy build an AOSP 4.3 ROM!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
There are already plenty of them and would be just as buggy. They all use same RIL and Kernels. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
I would have to agree and I am an aosp lover ... Between data drops and constant f*ck ups on the "cough cough" cm team side you would be better of hear and that is coming from somebody that compiles their own ROM and custom kernel every day
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mystique:
Any idea what I might have done to break this?

I'm open to suggestions..

:(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Is you're WiFi on ?

Maybe try using the notification toggle
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Travisdroidx2:
I did that by activating it through settings. Toggle works fine. Also in the FAQ section of the op there is also the TrevE tether app
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
No need for TrevE app anymore. TrevE built for us when original app only supported ICS. Native works fine but if want to use the Android App it has been updated to JB and can be found in Playstore or on their website.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Travisdroidx2:
Yup the native works fine with the toggle. There is no need for the TrevE app but was just wanting to offer another solution. And seen it posted in the OP. But you are correct the toggle works great.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Hey prdog quick Q ... Do you have a zerolemon ? I got one and started testing it on this ROM and aosp, on both it seemed that signal wasn't as good. Do you have those problems with it ? I heard it covers up the antenna but your case would to
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
No need for ZeroLemon for me. I get 24-48 hours on stock but I stay off Candy Crush. :p:laugh::cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
I like the youtubez lol I'm still at 70% and in bed at the end of the day

I'm trying to figure this out xD

Anybody wanna lend a hand
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
Buggy? Im not sure which one u tried but most of them are running pretty good right now. Eclipse is 100% functional. I added a modded Camera with HDR and the KJ script and loving every minute of it. I was just throwing it out there cuz it might be a fun project, mainly to get a laugh.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Aosp is a fun project, like I said I have my own private kernel and compile it with carbon every night but it just does not work "to par" with touchwiz specifically signal is not as good
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
That is because signal is related to the homemade RIL. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Yupp :P
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
Sorry to clog up ur thread Andy, Shouldn't have said anything. It was meant as a joke. I just miss using ur Roms for the support and quality.

I have done numerous tests using my phone and my gf's phone. Shes running this ROm, im on Aosp Eclipse. I have both phones right next to each other, both read the same exact DMB/ASU. Her phone has 3 bars, mine has 1. I think AOSP just displays signals bars different. Im probably wrong but thats what i have found. They are both great. Im not knocking either.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] miguel11691:
do the add ons work on 3.4?

---------- Post added at 08:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:11 PM ----------

whats th ebest kernel to use with version 3.4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Yes the addons work with 3.4, for the kernel it is all personal choice
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wolfballz:
A lot of users report great performance and battery life with stock kernel but like zachf714 said it's personal preference.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] emarietta:
Pr I have a quick question. I flashed carbon then came back to this and no calls will go through and my signal will just go away. I wiped everything internal , system , data and reflashed bones again and still same problem. You have any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Either Verizon is having problems in your area or I would Odin back to stock. AOSP causes problems for a lot. Some say they don't have a problem going back and forth while others have signal and GPS issues. AOSP jacks with the partitions so no telling what happens. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] emarietta:
Thanks.. ill have to odin tonight after work and see if that works
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hallstevenson:
Signal bars, as has been shown / proven in the past (Apple with the iPhone, # of bars change from ICS to JB when the radio didn't, etc, etc), can be "manipulated". You could have a piss-poor, next-to-no signal and the phone could still show all bars.... Reading the actual signal strength (dBm) is the only proper way to judge.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
They both show same dBm because that is what the radio/antenna are picking up. The degradation of the signal happens after that as it passes through the RIL. All software ports using homemade RIL have this problem. Was really obvious when they were porting Sense 4 to Sense 3.5 devices. Same happens with AOSP as it is reported as the main reason people come back to TW. Samsung doesn't have the greatest radios/signal in the market as it is. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hallstevenson:
I ran Liquid's AOSP on my S3 for a while and even encountered different signal widgets that would show different values. So it even seems there are different "spots" that apps can query values and some are right and some are wrong (or they read values "before" or "after" the RIL ??). I was comparing signal strengths with different radios, kernels, etc and to make it quicker and easier, I had 3-4 widgets on my main screen. Until I looked at Settings, About Phone, Status did I realize that the signal was in fact just fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
The dBm in status is the actual signal between radio and tower. After the RIL pass through is the signal you actually experience. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYSAKZ:
Brother I know that this may not be in the right spot to pose this question but andy or prdog is there a way to send like 8 or 9 photos in one text message cause sometimes I can only attach 2 tops 3 or I am doing something or going about it all wrong. ?

Ps using stock touch wiz messaging
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
May not be the answer you want but try making it into an album and sharing the whole album as a slideshow. I think that's the only way to send that many...

it's so nice to see hockey back on tv...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] emarietta:
still nothing after ODIN. went completely stock and now i can't even send text messages. the PRL is correct IMEI is correct, IMEISV is 00 if thats normal? im not sure. but everything but call and text messages work now. still getting the complete signal loss though. im confused... probably will have to call verizon in the morning
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Looks like all the numbers are good. Not sure what else to do. This is why I never flash AOSP on a non Nexus device. I have to pay full retail so not worth the chance to trust Devs. Lot of AOSP roms are copy/paste from other devs. Has to be Verizon down or a hardware/sim failure. Never seen one not come back to life with Odin that didn't loose IMEI. If lost IMEI would have to Odin all the way back to pre H version ICS and reprovision. Can call Verizon and if down will be first message you get before picking an option. SMS should still go over WIFI but MMS requires data. Also could have borked your sim card. Remove battery and sim card for 30 seconds and replace to reset and update PRL. May need new sim. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] emarietta:
its weird.. i ODIN back to BLK3. but ive gone back and forth between AOSP and TW many times on this phone and never a problem, not even GPS. but its just weird, its only calls and text. Data works fine. Thanks for your time though, i appreciate it. ill see what verizon can do for me tomorrow
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
If no calls and no text I would look at borked sim card. We have only had to reprovision for data. I have been lucky and only had to reprovision once sin pre-release and that was because I tested the Phone app to go to 3G and couldn't go back to 4G. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prenedo:
No calls/text but working data?... sounds like you're preferred 'subscription type' was changed. It can only be changed on aosp (in my experience). I would flash back to aosp and check your network settings, make sure subscription type is set to RUIM/SIM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mystique:
What will wiping data do?

Seemingly simple question..

I'm having weird issues with my phone (namely ADs are showing up when I'm connected to wifi) and usb adb no longer works.. only wifi adb does..

So I wanted to data wipe.. I am assuming that will wipe things like killjoy, volume mod boost, ie anything I've flashed from a zip..

And all my settings and prefs as well as all install applications from the market and such right?

After all that.. its not going to reset my build.prop (assuming nothing but killjoy has touched it) and it probably won't fix my usb adb problems either..

So I'm thinking just a reinstall and reload of all the mods and such is the best way..

Opinions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Won't affect flashed mods. Only settings, apks, and their data. If USB doesn't work have lost drivers, path to SDK, need to use a different USb port on PC or cable is bad. Myself when these things go wonky I just wipe and Nuke everything and start over. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tcsheen:
An XDA thread search yielded no results so I need help, I would really like to know how to get to the clockmod settings in v3.4.

I wouldn't post this if I hadn't already spent an hour looking for it.

Thanks for the help
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
settings/date and time
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
I had this problem yesterday .. Ended up having to restore my imei .. Luckily I backed up to nv (yes all my numbers were correct)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
[MENTION=4538493]prdog1[/MENTION] BTW yesterday during that craziness I odin'd to stock and now msm_otg is gone ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cynikalJ:
Yea I got the roaming lock. I did a adb reboot nvrestore and had to wipe everything and reflash my room and all is well now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Did you flash AOSP also. Other thing to look at is CWM. Those were the 2 original traceable variables on original NV problems and loss of IMEI. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cynikalJ:
I had just flashed the newest carbon nightly. 9/20 I think. Came to find out everyone that flashed it lost their network....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Yea. I saw that. Same thing happened a while back with MUI. :rolleyes:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cynikalJ:
I wish they would get 4.3 data fixed. I still get random data drops
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Gonna get TW 4.3 soon. They need to sell all them Smart watches before X-Mas while they can. If Verizon don't release, Samsung will leak for financial purposes. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
I flashed the same thing but a build that I compiled myself
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
That what you get for kanging. Copy/paste will bite you in the ass every time. :p:laugh::cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
I really hope so... I like 4.3 and am getting sick of these carriers not releasing anything, the international exynos S3 has an official 4.2.2 ota so seriously they need to get their act in gear
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
They stopped 4.2 on US as soon as 4.3 was released by Google. Actually wouldn't see any difference between 4.2.2 and 4.3 unless you buy the watch. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Either way :P what takes Samsung so long to update the older devices, it's obvious that touchwiz is updated to 4.3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Still have to update binaries and all to match each device. That's why we don't port International. It a lot of work. We are in line behind S4 and Note-2. Both of those are newer. New devices come first. Only reason they speeding up update is to sell you a watch. :laugh::cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Yeah i know ;) exynos uses a different chipset entirely so it is harder but I think the carriers is what is holding us back except for the note 2, the international has not even got a good ota yet

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] uberbdon:
What features set this ROM apart from the others? Considering making the switch but don't know what the differences are.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] frodo_lives:
Not a customizable as some, but clean and simple. I don't have as many issues with this one as opposed to others that allow you to choose more options. Only issue I have had is the occasional backing out of an app sending me to the lock screen. I've been running it for a week and no FC, no random reboots, no wifi or data issues. It has the few options I like in the Aroma installer. This and JellyBeans v19 are my 2 favorite and most stable ones I've used. Jellybeans has more aroma options.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wolfballz:
All features are listed in the OP under Features... There's a wealth of knowledge in the entire OP if you read it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Naddict:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Guys please just ignore that guy.

He doesn't bother me and I have real life issues. It's the only way for him to get attention, better to not give into the games.

on extra extra side note guys, I just got told my step-dad has to get open-heart surgery. There is a 99% success rate, so I am optimistic as it could be much worse. But such a healthy guy all his life, recently just broke his most weight for bench press, routine check-up and not only does he have afib, but an irregular heart-beat. I share this with you guys because these next few weeks I will not be around much.

The ROM itself should hopefully be bug free. But I did want to let you guys know this is why I won't be around that much in the next month or so.

Don't worry, Andy. My dad had quadruple bypass in his mid fifties. Doctors are very good at this type of surgery these days.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hallstevenson:
Yeap, for heart surgeons, it's routine.... Many probably do more than one every day (depending on the hospital, of course). To family, it's obviously not.

is there a mirror for the add ons? the links on the OP aren't loading for me. just need the AOSP theme, the middle clock AOSP fix, and the AOSP settings fix. thanks!

ps.. why is about phone-build number telling me that my rom is still version 3.3? i know the aroma installer still showed 3.3 also, but when going through the change log within aroma.. it said 3.4, so i figure that andy just forgot to update the text...

Is anyone having an issue with the new Android Device manager? It doesn't detect my phone, Actually I don't think the play store sees my phone, dls from online don't work, from the phone there is no problem.

It works on stock and CleanRom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wolfballz:
Did you enable to feature in the Google Settings app in your app drawer? When you open Google Settings there is an option at bottom for Android Device Manager, tap that and then there is a check box labeled Remotely locate this device.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobd2754:
Yep, everything enabled in the settings. Is there an option in Aroma I needed to check?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wolfballz:
I don't think there's anything in aroma regarding it.

I'll do a re-install over the weekend, Something in framework may not be working right

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mystique:
Hey all, reinstall question..

I flashed faux 24m kernel and after a ton of random reboots, we simply boot looped and never came back..

So I wiped and reflashed clean rom..

Somewhere I incorrectly picked that aroma option that allows the lock screen to rotate 360..

So my screen seems to never wants to turn off when smart stay is on, and flickers like crazy when the phone rings..

Anyway to back out that one mod? Or am I wiping again to get rid of it?

Thanks in advance..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobd2754:
I believe if you just boot into recovery as if you were installing a ROM, when aroma comes up instead of wiping and reinstalling , you pick the mod option and just change the lock screen choice,
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
100% correct.

Dumb question, I used the download link from post #1 but the "About Phone" dialog says I am running BoneStock ver 3.3 (not 3.4). The "AdvanceS" app also says BoneStock 3.3. - did I miss something?

Even if I'm running an older version by accident, this ROM is fantastic. It's stable and has the right amount of customization/tweaks for phone junkies like myself. :D

i've downloaded the rom 2x. both times the MD5 checksums do not match. any thoughts on what i can do? downloaded to my laptop both times.

i did try flashing the rom, after proper wiping, despite the mismatching checksums and it hangs forever. thinking something is wrong. hmmmmmm???

thanks

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hallstevenson:
Yet when folks have any quirks, people say "could be a bad download, try again". I've always believed the same as you, the flash will just fail, not do a broken install.
