I am unrooted right now because I wanted to take OTA, but OTA sucked and battery life was hell. I wanted to know, how do I flash this from mb1 root? Do I flash this and the new MD3 AIO with the mb1 tz? Also I noticed that stock radios on mb3 weren't getting data (the arrows on the 4g icon would only go up), After about 2-3 minutes, data comes back on and then stops. I know people have reported these kinds of problems, I just want to know that does the mb1 tz make a difference?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wyvern49:
I'm working on about 7 hours sleep in the last two nights so my memory may be bad and I didn't find what I was looking for with search. However, I thought at one point you were going to/thinking about making an Aroma install that just allowed you to quick change some of the cosmetics, e.g., colors and animations, without going through the ROM or theme installs. That would be a nice addition. The other thing that would just make installing v2.0 a bit quicker would be to not have to flash the Blocking Mode update unless that is just left over for those who installed a pre-fix version. Other than those nit picks I agree with you that the current 1.6/2.0 are good to go until something else changes.

One thought on the Aroma install is that you might want to look at Ultimate Real Icon Theme. He just recently changed his Aroma install so that one of the first things you get is a list of check boxes to indicated what you want to install/theme. Then just those pages appear for you to make the appropriate selections. I have no idea if this would be easy or a PITA or if it makes sense for this ROM but I thought I'd throw it out.

Great ROM and amazing amount of work both initially and fixes in a very short time. You certainly have everything in good shape and deserve a rest for awhile. Enjoy the family and other parts of you life and we'll be enjoying the fruits of your labor.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
blocking mode is my pride and joy lol

Samsung did some trickery to try and take it away from us (again) as they watch these threads and seen that I got it. but there half assed approach to coding came in handy for us, lol

when I was making the AOSP theme I found some missing code, I then spent over 6 hours to get it to work 100% on this base!

and over 40 hours to get it to work on VRBMB1!

if you want it.. flash the patch.. if you don't.. then don't..

it will however be built into v2.1.. it doesn't hurt anything as it's a 100% fully working VZW port. like I said almost 50 hours total now on blocking mode alone....

v2.0 had over 500 downloads by the time I fixed Blocking Mode, there was no point to re-upload it when I could just provide the patch....?

animations, you can now find in the AOSP theme.. (all links are up-to-date..)

I was going to do an Aroma.zip but it's about 750MB big and I would need to upload one for AOSP theme and stock ROM, it's just too much work for me, I can't keep all these links up to date and for basically two ROMs.. I know I put out things fast, but I do need some family time.. I am human after all :), I am trying to make everyone happy, but I gotta say no to some things ya know? so I decided to just put the animations into the AOSP theme instead..

thank you though bro!

but I like how things are with Aroma and have no intentions on changing..

I don't want the theme included with the ROM.zip..

I know it freezes and stuff, but it's nothing I can do about that.

and it's only a 10 second hold of power to restart the install.

I get maybe 1 freeze for every 20 flashes personally..

a rest is in store, I hope everything is running well, cos I am taking a much needed break this weekend!

Hopefully others can answer any questions people have, I will try and check in some, but I won't be around too much.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] howellcp:
Take a break. You deserve it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
working on getting the mirror links up for v2.0 and v1.6 hopefully by tomorrow.

also going to work on the battery bar.. no promises.....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] capt730:
Just another thanks for the great rom and being so on top of everything. Smooth, battery doing well, everything is working great on 1.6. You really nailed it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BrUhNiGGs:
First time using this rom and I chose to have the statusbar a 50% transparancy but it just looks greenish/opaque. Any help on this?

And also, is the AOSP theme to be applied after the initial rom install or am I supposed to install the AOSP zip from scratch. They both have the same Aroma settings so thats why I was kinda confused. And especially both have very different file sizes
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] syoungblood95:
Could you possibly theme the multiwindow bar?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
We are fixing to release a full stock theme. If you want Multiwindow themed now you can flash our Original Andy Multi window theme in multiple colors in the theme and mod threads. :cool:

Please read the OP before posting. Simple request..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ccogan:
Andy,

Love this rom, thanks for your hard work. I was wondering on the screen shots for. 2.0 what base band are you running? MD3 or MB1.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Don't know when he took the shots but he is now running MB1. I can guarantee that if you are in a low signal high handoff area MD3 modem will eat your lunch. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ty07allstar:
Andy, just flashed the newest aosp middle clock fix and the clock is now blue but it messed up the toggles so that they look like tw instead of just the icons like aosp. Also the down arrow next to WiFi is white. I know your busy so take your time. I just wanted to let you know. Thanks again
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sipple31:
Andy - you can see in my sig what i'm running... but just wanted to give a shout out and say that everything is running great. :good: I'm a long-time user of your work from the CleanROM AOSP theme. This is my first ROM with multi-window. I never use it - but it seems to work great.

thanks and enjoy your R&R.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] HarleyChick:
Andy, sweetie, you have done a phenomenal job with this ROM. With the exception of a battery bar - which I know you are working on - I can't think of anything that needs added to this ROM. It works just great the way it is. Thanks for being so responsive to your users; personally, that makes a HUGE difference as to whether or not I'm going to flash a ROM, mod or theme.

Keep rockin', sweetie!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ccogan:
So I am running 2.0 with the MD3 . what would I need to flash to get back to mb 1 and I assume everything will work OK with w2.0?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wyvern49:
Andy, as usual you have thought things through and done an exceptional job of balancing user wants with what is practical and maintainable. As I said, these were a couple ideas I had that were very nit picky and not at all necessary to enjoy this ROM. I'm good with installing the patch and can see why you didn't want to redo 2.0 after so many downloads. I was away for a while and didn't realize it took you so long to redo blocking mode for 2.0. I know it was a lot of work and time and I'm impressed you got it working 100%. Maybe Verizon will give up trying to find new ways to block our using this feature and settle for just blocking it for those who run stock.

Enjoy your weekend and whatever other time you need to recover from not only the hard work but many frustrations in getting us such a great ROM so quickly. I know sometimes we users can seem to have endless, conflicting, and often not possible requests and expect you can just wave your magic wand to make them happen. However, we do know you work very hard on your projects and I'm sure I'm not alone in understanding that the answer may be no for a variety of reasons.

You can flash either the MB1 aio or the hybid posted earlier with the MB1 and MD3 mix. Either will work just fine with 2.0.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ccogan:
Thanks,I am going to give the hybrid a go.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] HarleyChick:
You took the words out of my mouth. You, sir, are awesome..... :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] viskey:
i wiped the big 3 twice, flashed, and now have all my apps back and updated.....what am i missing on getting the center clock? it didnt flash that way from the initial bonestock install. did i miss it in aroma? i also flashed the middle clock fix and its still on the right side of the notification bar. i have not flashed any AOSP themes yet. i was trying to get this all right before i do that. Any recommendations? Thanks guys!

i also noticed that some live wallpapers in my apps list when i didn't select them in aroma. also only selected google calendar but both samsung and google are on my phone. Is there an issue with aroma possibly?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hallstevenson:
I don't put the clock in the middle nor do I know what the "fix" is for, but under Settings, Date and time, Clock style, there are options for right, center, left, and none.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] viskey:
wow, can't believe i missed that....lol...thanks man
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hallstevenson:
Just wondering, but I keep re-flashing to try the different animations as well as the statusbar and notifications menu options. When I do that, do I wipe out the blocking mode patch ? I am NOT doing a full wipe - if I were, I'd know I needed to re-apply.

I still have the Settings entry for Call/message block, just not sure if it's fully functional without re-applying the patch.

If only I'd remember to flash then apply the patch !! :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rldev:
I am quite pleased with this rom. While I prefer using an asop rom, I was growing tired of the poor battery life and bugs I was experiencing. My only qualm and it is minor is that performance can get a bit sluggish from time to time. Is anyone using a thrid party kernel with this rom for better performance and similar battery life? Which kernels? LK has always been hit or miss for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hallstevenson:
Again, I have those options but have NOT applied the patch. For all I know, selecting those options may do nothing unless you've patched it first. Hmmm, nope, that's not true. The clock moves position.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
You will need to reflash the patch as it replaces all the new files. (Try opening blocking mode settings and you'll see how it was at first)

No all the options always work but if u try using the middle clock without the fix itll show overlapping icons and not display right.

Sorry guys on my phone or I'd respond better
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jdog94:
you have a link to these launchers?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BrUhNiGGs:
I've read it twice but I cant find any details whether I flash the AOSP theme on top the initial rom. Sorry if I'm really just that blind but according to me, I literally cant see it, along with my question with the transparent statusbar
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] CeeMillz:
Wipe dalvik / cache flash the theme, choose your options in aroma, finish up and rewipe your caches and reboot. Status bar can't help ya with I don't use the transparent one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlyle:
Theme for bones rom is coming together nicely
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Under downloads I give a step by step of how to install, but all good man was just a busy day yesterday.

You want to install ROM , reboot to ROM ho through the setup, then reboot back to recovery to installed AOSP theme. Wipe dalvik, cache reboot.

What's wrong with the status bar?

If it's too transparent try using the 25% one
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
That looks awesome bro!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jhanford:
As you haven't got much to do now....

Hi Andy,

One suggestion I have is to release and maintain a separate MODs zip that can be applied after a full install that contains all the options that DON'T require even a Dalvik wipe. That way certain options can be tried out for look and feel, etc. without taking the phone out of action for too long (I've got nearly 400 apps and a Dalvik wipe means 10 minutes of downtime when booting)

Just an idea.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlyle:
Ya ..me and a homie been hard at work on it

Motomoto base from international that has been heavily modified..with graphics and major code work
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] deuce237bblock:
Looks sweet. Will it be universal for other ROMS or specific to this ROM only?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlyle:
Our theme has a full Aroma itself.. full of options and goodies...wont break anything from bones...

Theme will be universal to all roms once complete
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BrUhNiGGs:
I chose a 50% transparency but it stays opaque and has a greenish color to it. And what I also noticed when flashing the AOSP theme is that the lidroid toggles are still in TW format and not AOSP icons like in the screenshots <-- someone last page was having this similar issue as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
The toggles I'll fix , but the trans idk what you mean can u get a screen shot?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
It's a good idea man but I already have enough extra add-on to maintain.. I know I try to give you guys everything you ask for but I'm getting overwhelmed..

I would do an aroma.zip but then I'd have to do 4 more 700mb files. One for stock ROM. One for AOSP and then do that for v1.6 and v2.0.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BrUhNiGGs:
I will in a few, but right now I finally got everything setup the way I like. I'll reflash the theme and see if I get the same issue.

And could I make a suggestion in the aroma settings? It would be nice if you can addon the AOSP ringtones within the theme aroma or just the initial ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
I'll look to add the for the to-do for next release

did the status bar look like this...?

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2014149&d=1370265484
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BrUhNiGGs:
Okay thanks. And no mine didn't look like that. It was more like a solid colored darkish/faded green (if that makes any sense) all across the statusbar
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hallstevenson:
I'm willing to bet that if you're just making theme type changes, wiping Dalvik cache isn't necessary.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cuban11182:
Does anyone else have data drops when using the tether application? I'm on stock kernel using the built in tethering.

I've noticed it on all TW roms that everything will be fine then my 4G icon will disappear then reappear, and repeat. All I have to do is turn tether off and on and it will go away. Doesn't do it on AOSP rooms...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
no it doesn't until I see a screen shot :(

sorry about that issue bro.

you are correct, Sir!

what modem do you have ..?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cuban11182:
Mb1.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] deuce237bblock:
Heres a screenshot of my pull down after flashing the clock fix. Other than that everything is running silky smooth and the AOSP theme is amazing. You did an excellent job on this!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] STLRamsFan1k:
Never had that problem, on the lk1 modem however.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BrUhNiGGs:
Okay here it is on 75% transparancy. Or maybe thats how the transparancy is supposed to be? On 50% AND 75% they both look the same. The statusbar is very dark still and I can barely see through it. I was very used to AOSP and being able to use a slider to change the opacity.

On this screenshot it looks better than it actually appears on the phone. On my phone, it just looks kinda greenish/brown regardless of the color of wallpaper
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Thank you very much!!

the black background I am fixing as I type this..

new link I will post when is ready

that looks just fine to me? :confused:

transparency is hard to do using a .png image..

I had to manually make these images, it isn't an exact science like with a hex number..

if you'd like to fix them to your liking or suggest new ones for me to use I am open to that : you can find the images in aroma/statusbar/trans/and then u'll see the numbers for the different trans 100/75/50/25% and stock.

edit the one you want or all of them.

as far as the blue hint goes, I don't have that issue and I haven't heard any other complaints about it but I'll keep an eye out for it :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Posted another new link for the AOSP theme middle clock fix v2.0.

This one I promise is good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Unfortunately there isn't anything I can do about this, only offer suggestions, but since you are already on MB1 I'm lost. You flash the firmware I posted in the OP?,

Andy 2.0 is running fantastic. Went to see QotSA on Wednesday and the phone ran perfectly thru all the pics, vids, and voice recordings I did. Battery life is excellent. Thank you so much. Donation sent.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cuban11182:
No I've been using the aio from rootz. I'll flash this one and check. I'm Hopeful it will work
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
OHH man am I jealous!!

I only got to see them once, and it was before I knew who they were, this musta been 10 years ago, I went to see RHCP (major Frusciante fan!) and not only was The Mars Volta opening up but QotSA did as well!

That was when I first fell in love with them and everything Josh Homme touches.

He helped produce the latest Arctic Monkey album and you can 100% feel Josh Homme's presence, the album is unlike any of their older material and has really trippy killer guitar parts totally influenced by Homme.

If you got any good pictures from the concert you don't mind sharing that'd be killer to see.

I haven't ever really used this camera, I'm curious how it does.

thank you so much for the donation, Sir!

It's going to great use!

I am very glad to hear that the ROM is running so well!

The hard effort really feels like it paid off!

Thank you again.

Yea, I highly recommend this .zip by prdog1, he thoroughly tested it for us to get the best combination to run on any ROM, you don't need to worry about your camera/wifi working or not working on VRBMB1/VRBMMD3.

Pop back in after and let us know how it works!

------------------

I just want to say thank you to everyone for being so kind and helpful throughout this process for me.

This is technically my first true ROM.

I have made ROMs before, and I have posted one other one for the Inc2, but it was right before I left, and I couldn't maintain it.

Over 900 downloads in less than 4 days!

I never thought I'd be seeing stats like this.

You guys are the reason I like doing this, and producing a stable product that just about anyone can enjoy.

I like to be able to give everything that the user wants, while maintaining that clean feel.

I've been in a lot of different communities here on XDA.

From my very first, the HTC Droid Eris, Incredible 1, Incredible 2, Rezound, DNA, and now here.

I can without a doubt say that everyone here is amazing, and such a pleasure to work with.

You guys understand that, yes I do provide things fast, but I also do have a life. This means a hell of a lot to a developer like myself.

Some Developers (would never name who) like to provide things fast for donations.

And as much as I do need donations, I do not do this for donations.

I love doing this.

I enjoy waking up in the morning, reading through the thread and seeing if their are any issues I can address.

It's the way I would have wanted a Developer to be when I was running other's ROMs.

So when I see that the clock isn't turning blue for middle clock, I will fix that ASAP.

If I don't get on things right away, it isn't because I am ignoring you or anything personal like that.

I could have simply missed the post, this thread fills up fast.

Or, I might not be able to get to it so I didn't respond, knowing that it will hopefully be brought up again later, and I can address it then.

Thank you all so very much!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hallstevenson:
I had posted previously -- not a complaint, mind you, was asking -- that the 50% transparency option wasn't that transparent to me. I've changed to 75% for the notifications pulldown and 100% for the status bar and I'm happy ! By the way, when you first reboot after changing the statusbar transparency, it seems to be at 0%. You have to swipe it once to basically apply it and see it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
which Aroma options would you like?

I could make a .zip like the middle clock fix, that has the stock SystemUI.apk and you can flash this to change, animation, lidroid toggles and status bar Aroma options, all without need for wipe, it helps, but don't need.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
I'm trying to keep my cool here,

and this isn't direct at you at all man!!

this is for everyone.

the issue about it being black til u swipe it.. not a big deal, nothing I can do..

as for the transparency

I don't want to hear any more complaints that it is too transparent, or it is not transparent enough.

they are .png images I had to edit by HAND.

I don't claim to be the best themer.

if you don't like it.

either deal with it, or fix it yourself..

I will GLADLY use new images if someone wants to make better one.

i have a 4x5 launcher that works but it has scrolling wallpaper and i dont see any way to stop the scrolling
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Where did you get this launcher, is it from the new base??

as for scrolling wallpaper that's smali code..

The launchers will come though,

I am working on them.

you can use the launchers from v1.6

but it's not the .apk from the new base, and I don't mix and match .apks

if i say the ROM is VRBMD3 ALL the .apks are from that base

so, I can't use the old launchers, and I haven't had time to edit and test them, but they are being worked on.
