Thinking about making the glow pulsate.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Excessiveidling:
While you could more than likely get away with dirty flashing...a lot of rom developers suggest...EVEN if its just a point release change...to clean flash. Do you take a shower before you put on clean clothes (or wipe before you put on clean underwear?)? Same deal...sure it works some of the time but theres usually some crap left over ;)

Wolfballz what needs to be done to see your splash on boot instead of the x
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wolfballz:
Download the bootanimation.zip and move it to the /system/media folder and set permissions to rw-r--r--. It will probably ask you to overwrite the one that is already there. If you want to keep a backup of the original one just add .bak to end of it before moving the one you downloaded.

will be installing for first time

Do I need to install VRBMF1 firmware or is it already baked into v3.4?

thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] M_T_M:
Firmware is never baked into the ROM, mate.

That's a separate entity all together ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TabletConnect:
thank you. so I should install the ROM first and then the firmware or vice-versa? The installation instruction didn't really address this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wolfballz:
You can flash in any order you like.

New to this ROM, came from CyanogenMod which killed my signal strength so heard I had to get back to a TW ROM that doesn't have a hacked radio. What I am seeing now is when I am connected to wifi no 4G icon displays - I turn off wifi and the 4G icon comes back - is this normal?

Eric
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
It's normal if didn't completely wipe device till it screamed coming from AOSP base. When on WIFI will not see 4G if rom is right. If see both RUN. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wolfballz:
Not sure if its the same for everyone but I will see a 4g icon along with the wifi icon if connected to wifi and i send an mms. Once mms goes through 4g icon goes away again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Yes only time you will see both is when both are required or it needs to use data instead of wifi like MMS. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
as PRdog1 said, you NEED 4g to send receive MMS messages.

can't do it over wifi (or at least on this ROM)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Juice3250:
I personally like it better without the 4G showing at the same time like it does on stock. Makes it less confusing as to which one is using data.

Has anyone tried this kernel on this rom?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1853816
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
This is stock, I didn't make that 4g icon come on..

and yes that kernel is fresh to use, read the FAQ though, once you flash any custom kernel you forfiet ANY support from me and this thread. I didn't make the kernel so I can't support it even if I did want to (but I don't) also, it makes it impossible to know if your new issue since the custom kernel is from the ROM or the kernel. Please respect this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Juice3250:
If I nandroid backup, does it backup the kernel as well?

Anyone having an issue with screen rotation? Mine either sticks on landscape or doesn't at all. Also tilt doesn't work on temple run. I went from out of the bpx replacement clean flash.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Juice3250:
I dont have any issues with rotation. Try switching the rotation in aroma. Also make sure that motion is turned on in settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Juice3250:
Nevermind. I flashed the theme after finding my answer within this thread.

Homey released an update?? Woot! Thanks much Andy!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
VERY minor.

but I wanted to get all my ROMs updated to rid of all the add-ons and include in the ROM to stop confusion.

a lot tougher than I initially intended maintaining the 3 threads would be.

I might go buy a moto x just for the hell of it today as I never had a moto phone, that one wont be getting root I'm sure so don't need to worry about that. I was stuck on HTC for so long, I thought I hated touch wiz, I've come to love it, might have to do the same with the moto x, seems like the perfect phone to toss in the sim card and bring around and not care if it gets beat up. (unlike my s3/s4 or htc one)

should only cost me the $250 contract price so it's worth playing with it, and if don't like it, can make some cash off it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ericizzy1:
hope its not a goodbye post. great rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
good bye post?

I've said this enough times

I WILL TELL YOU WHEN I AM MOVING ON AND CAN NO LONGER SUPPORT.

I don't just up and dip out.

and for the record I have ZERO intentions on leaving.

AND

FWIW

this is costing me money as I could sell my SG3 for money I desperately need., hence why I am using a contract buy to make money..

instead of selling the s3 to get me by I am keeping support like promised, using an upgrade on a phone I prob. won't like and will just be making money but have to wait 2 more years for an upgrade (no longer 20 months..)

This thread is where it started and plan on supporting it til everyone has moved on.

great rom, thanks again
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Metalhead520:
Well I'm back on Bone Stock again but kinda confused as to what I'm running lol. Clicked the link for 3.4, downloaded it, installed it, installed the correct gapps and everything is working.....mostly. I go into settings to see the version and it says 3.3, so needless to say i'm confused. Does the 3.4 link need to be checked or something or is it correct for some reason in my settings and status menu.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
He forgot to edit the build.prop. If you dl'd 3.4 you should be running 3.4.

Enough with the updates Google!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Metalhead520:
Ok, one more thing, I used the wallet installer to get google wallet. It edits the build.prop to say its a Galaxy Nexus but it doesn't install the cracked version of wallet. Is there anything I can do to get it on here because I love using it. All I'm getting when I download it from the market is a Insufficient secure element error
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] studpuppy102:
Have you tried wiping cache/dalivak?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYSAKZ:
Download the rom again

Try reflash wipe cache dalvic cache wipe system, factory reset, go through installer once finished let it boot on it's own for ten minutes before setting up and see what happens
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Nomad1600:
Just updated to 3.4, and this time in recovery (TWRP). After making a nandroid, I chose factory reset, plus wiped data, dalvic and cache for good measure before flashing the 3.4 zip. definitely made difference since my old backgrounds were no longer there, plus the few mods I made (eg new battery style, transparent Accuweather). And it went through and reloaded all my apps once I entered in my google info.

But... the Verizon apps still show in my app drawer. VZ Navigator, Mobile Hotspot. Accessories, My Verizon Mobile, Verizon Tones. And in Aroma I am sure I didn't check any of those.

Did I not wipe enough? Or did they come over when the phone linked to PlayStore and downloaded all my backed up apps?

Do I need to flash again, wiping again and adding a wipe I may have missed?

Do I need to uninstall using Application Manager before Nandroid, wipes, and reflashing?

Are the Verizon apps on my phone a combination of Jason Voorhees, AOL, and cancer... I can try to kill them, but they sit up and come back again? :o:confused:

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
See if you can uninstall from playstore. If not see if they are in system/app using a root browser. I'm guessing they reinstalled from the play store.

Enough with the updates Google!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Nomad1600:
Interesting, I used Root Browser, and they don't show up in system/app. But using the settings/application manager they show up. I Uninstalled. Icons no longer appear in app drawer. Would it be safe to say they are no longer bloating my phone, or do I need to reflash again?

Second, there is a red icon in the app drawer titled "Mobile Hotspot". Doesn't appear in the system/app nor does it appear setting/application manager. Is that the Verizon mobile hotspot app icon (guessing so since its red)? Is it safe to assume that since it doesn't appear in the system/app folder nor the application manager that its just an orphaned icon and safe to remove?

Update, went onto Playstore -> all downloads and removed all the offensive verizon apps. So if I do need to rreflash, at least they want re-install from the Play Store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
#1-If not in system/app and removable from apllication manager they were data/apps downloaded from the playstore. if uninstalled they are gone.

#2-Hotspot works fine and is not bloat and can't be removed. It is actually native Android tether that was hijacked by Verizon and is tied into framework. The entire Verizon code of the app is 2 web address calls that have been removed as part of the tether hack. You may be able to hide the icon. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Turn off automatic updates in the play store if you don't every time you flash they will come back.

Enough with the updates Google!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 0331:
Thank you! Worked great!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYSAKZ:
I'm so glad you get to enjoy how amazing this ROM is the Andy made us I'm glad it worked you gotta remember a lot of things going on during the initial boot. So when you leave it alone to let it settle on it's own thats that makes all the difference.

If you wiped all that and its still showing up, wipe system when you flash ROMs (for future reference). I always do and I've not had any issues. It ensures always having a super clean start.

Don't know if this will help, but: I had media drain on this rom and narrowed it down to the gallery app. Whenever I open the gallery and go view a single pic, my media would start going and not stop. So I downloaded Gallery ICS, which is pretty much the stock ICS gallery, and I get no drain when using that. Still happens every time I view a picture from the stock(Note 2) gallery.

Gps issues

Hi, I have tried tightening my screws, and all sorts of other things, but I still cannot seem to get a lock. I do not even get 1 satellite, it is always 0.

Please help!!

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Normally this happens after flashing AOSP roms and coming back to TW. Dirty flashing does not help. I would Odin back to stock, get a lock and then reflash. Need more info on where and what you have done. :cool: :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidxroothelp:
I was on multiple aosp roms for about 3 months but then I just needed some better camera software so I went back to tw and noticed that it was now just as good with these great roms. Also, the camera seemed to have better quality. Anyways, I did exactly what you said from aosp to touchwiz. Could you please tell me how to odin back to stock, cause this phone came from my brother and he rooted it so I have no experienced with odin, only flashing roms and stuff. I am on MF1.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
HaHaa. Pretty good guess. Before going all way back to Odin I would try wiping everything. Dalvik/cache/data and system x 3. Then try flashing stock rooted deodex MF1 by Scott (Cleanrom) or Beans and see if can get lock. If not then will need to do some reading if haven't Odin'd before. It is not hard but must be done correctly. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidxroothelp:
If I do get a lock with beans build, do I just flash back the rom I was originally using? If I do not get a lock, will odin just bring me back to stock touchwiz but still with root access?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
If you get a lock with Beans or Scotts can just flash this back. Just make sure it is the stock rom and and not their tweaked rom. If Have to Odin back will have to do whole root procedure over again. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidxroothelp:
Alrighty final question hahah, thanks a lot. This is the rom I presume you are talking about? http://www.scottsroms.com/downloads.php?do=cat&id=72
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Yup. That would be my preferred. Wipe, Wipe, Wipe. AOSP files have a tendency to stick around for some reason. Would also recommend saving anything on Internal storage and wiping it also due to the problems that will come up with the AOSP 0 folder. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 05Warrior:
Just my two cents. I went from tw to AOSP for a month then came back to tw with no issues. I first installed synergy with a complete wipe and format. Then I just reinstalled the rom I wanted. I have not run into any problems.

So am I correct in saying that the brightness slider option in Aroma doesn't properly configure the ROM to have it disabled if picking that option? Apologies if that's been asked before. Searched the topic and didn't see anything specific (and if there is, I suck :silly: ).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Sorry I'm confused by your question. You can choose to keep or remove the brightness slider in Aroma, at any time. Hopefully this is a helpful response.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] senorbuck:
Sorry to confuse, haha. During the ROM install, I selected to NOT have the brightness slider displayed in the notification dropdown. However, it's there for some reason.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlokos:
It worked for me. i selected no brightness slider in aroma and it wasn't there when I booted up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] senorbuck:
Hmm. Odd, I told it to not install it on 1.3 and 1.4 now. Guess I'll run through the install again... I went w/ the stock UI if that makes any difference.

Update: Yup, re-ran the setup, verified I'm not stupid and selected to NOT show the brightness slider. Boot into ROM and there it is :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wyvern49:
I'm on 1.3 and the brightness slider wasn't there when I booted with the stock UI. It also worked to remove it when I flashed the AOSP theme.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] senorbuck:
Okay then. Sorry to clog the thread. I'll redownload (and verify md5) and play around with it. Thanks everyone!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlokos:
Very strange indeed. I just flashed build 1.4, stock UI, selected no to brightness slider, rebooted and no brightness slider.

---------- Post added at 02:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:20 PM ----------

And not sure if this is an issue with my battery or the ROM, but my battery percentage is going haywire. It dropped from 70% to 17% instantaneously. I then plugged it in and it went back up to 71%, then unplugged it and dropped to 44%. I chose no battery and am using the TW display battery percentage option. I started having this issue with 1.3 and now 1.4.

I can't seem to get Acid audio v7 to work... when I flash it, I have no audio whatsoever. Downgraded to v5 and all is well again... doubt its a rom issue but I'd figure I'd note that.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
This is why I recommend a real full clean wipe and stock install first. Odin is last resort and shouldn't be needed. Just depends what has been run and how bad it has borked system. There a lot of bootleg AOSP roms out there. None run as good as touchwiz. Something gonna be broke or signal sucks. :cool:

Synergy with a super wipe deletes everything. It also fixes the blocks or sections of the phone. Like a scan disk I believe.
