Hey my friends, sorry if you guys felt left out, but I made a conscious decision to make the S4 ROM, then to port it to the S3, I released the ROM for the S4 finally today, so now it's your guys time, I will be porting the ROM exactly as it is for the S4 down to the S3.

It should not take me very long at all (granted things between S3/S4 aren't that different, which I am not expecting them to be, Android 4.3 is 4.3)

So give me about 2 weeks and ROM will be out. :)

SO I have been running roms on my phone since the got the boot loader unlocked. I have to say, this is by far the best rom I have found out there. Thank you for all the work you do.

Also it works GREAT with the Zero lemon battery.

I know I get scoffed at every time I mention this but andy's 4.1.2 is the sole reason I have not flashed anything a mod, and exposed module, a script nothing in a year and I will be reflashing bonestock 3.4 again just for practice it's that good people

I'm having extremely bad media drain after 5 battery cycles from switching back to bone stock 3.4.

I switched back from clean rom 8.

I flashed the mf1 firmware and am not running anything else besides what comes in the 3.4 rom.

What do I have to do to fix this issue?

Thanks for all your help in advance!

Now I can't even get into twrp recovery. I know I haven't lost root.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYSAKZ:
Which recovery and version are you running twrp 2.7 is still having major problems I believe
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hank3fan:
That's the one I was using. I switched to the latest cwm touch. I'm able to get into recovery now but I'm not able to get into my extended sd. Only my internal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYSAKZ:
Try using flashify and switch back to twrp 2.6.3.1 and report back as that version is super smooth
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hank3fan:
I can't access my external sd so I think I'm just going to odin back to mf1 tonight.

I wonder if this thread is done. I see Andy had to get rid of his s3 and s4.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYSAKZ:
Well I guess we are all thankful he left us arguably the best 4.1.2 rom for our phones to date. Sadly though I knew he got an HTC one m8 but was unaware he dumped his 3 and his 4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mystique:
Again, I really am very impressed with the old & slow 4.3 build running the kt kernel..

As for the /data/media thing.. You need root to see your things..

I found it easier to go into recovery and move the files that way..

Don't forget to chown the contents otherwise you'll have other problems..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Nomad1600:
No slight intended to Bonestock or Andy but just in case you do need to find an alternative and want a 4.3 ROM, CleanRom 8.1 is really stable, smooth, and shares a lot of the same great attributes as BoneStock. And just like Andy,the developer Is very supportive. Though I have moved on to a KitKat ROM I would highly recommend CR just as I highly recommend BoneStock as the best 4.1.2 ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
hey guys do to personal reasons I had to sell my S3 and my S4 unfortunately before I was able to release the ROM.

I do still want to put out a 4.3 ROM that is like my S4 ROM, at this point I know it isn't much of anything but I will be building it regardless. I don't have the device so I will be building blind, but I don't foresee a problem. To see what Is to come take a look at my S4 ROM, I will basically be porting that.

I had some personal stuff go on which is why I had to sell all my devices (cept M7). I did pick up an M8 on release day as I had an upgrade I wanted to use so my 24 months start asap./, but I've been so busy I am still on my HTC One M7.. I haven't even S-OFFed my M8 yet - it's still in the box.. :-/

I am getting my stuff back together though and I want to apologize to everyone for not being able to release the ROM before I had to sell the S3..

You guys are the best group a DEV could ever ask for and I will sincerely miss this community. Thank you all!

I am considering selling my M7 once I get settled on the M8 and maybe I'll see some of you on the S5 someday, granted I ever get enough $.

I'm picking up another S3 and it still has Android version 4.0.4 and Baseband I535VRLHE in it. Once I root it and load a custom bootloader on it, can I just flash this ROM, or do I need to ODIN stock 4.1.2 first?

Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
I would Odin MF1 and then run Casual to root, unlock and recovery. Easiest way to do all at one time. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] royta:
Thanks for the advice. I've always used the method here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2046439. Whatever way we're used to, right?

Where can I get 4.1.2 & MF1?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
That method is outdated and lot harder. Casual is one click GUI like Odin. Plug and play. Here is MF1. 20 minutes or less total time to Odin and Casual. :cool:

Hey Andy,

I hope this message comes to you in good health. First off I hope all is well and that you and those around you are healthy. Secondly, do you think it would be possible to just get a quick update of your intentions with regards to the 4.3 ROM for our S3? Is there too much going on right now in your personal life that you think it wont be something coming out soon? Otherwise what is an estimate time frame in which we might expect a release of your terrific work?

Once again I hope all is well.

-Infected0ne
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Doubt if 4.3 is going to happen. He does not have device and although porting from S4 is possible we are getting close to 4.4 update. S4 hasn't been updated to 4.4 for same reason. Try Old&Slow's or Bean's. O&S has Aroma and some mods and Bean's jas more mods than you would ever need. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Nomad1600:
You can also try CleanRom 8.x . When I was using CR (coming straight from BS) I found the two ROMs very similar (CR had perhaps more customizations).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ammjr71:
"Old," but awesome nonetheless...

Just wanted to let you know that I finally got around to checking out this ROM. It is absolutely AWESOME. I used to get around 2.5 days with actual stock TW 4.3, this one is pushing 3.5 days of battery life. Just saying THANKS!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYSAKZ:
Here here I second that motion.

This rom is the sole reason I may never want a new phone with a little help from the verizon lockdown team. But mostly because this rom does everything and more. And if you have not tried it use the aosp theme in the op it may just be a placebo effect but I feel I get better battery life. As of right now with close to a three year old battery I get 4.5 to 5 plus hours of screen on time per charge.

And for a completely insane theme try bandit moto theme in the app and theme section from prdog and jLyle.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ammjr71:
Haven't tried the themes. I'm using Hippy's dialer/contacts and MMS, Gunthermics google now and play music. I themed the notification panel with Xposed to my liking (dark!)... might have to check them out now, though...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SpyroDazee:
Replacing the SystemUI apk in the ROM.zip with the middle clock fix one causes a SystemUI force close upon reboot.

Same thing happens with AOSP theme one.

Perhaps it conflicts with changing the colors on the clock & such?

Works fine flashing the middle clock fix by itself, but it is that stock grey color.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Andy any chance of adding the choice to use your whole AOSP theme in aroma? I know the toggles are themed as well as the status bar, but I loved having everything themed. Or would flashing your actual theme designed for CR over this rom work?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SpyroDazee:
he included an AOSP theme.zip (for this ROM) in the OP. It themes the Icons as well.

I don't think he'll add it in the ROM.zip, because he wants to keep the ROM itself as small as possible.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Excessiveidling:
Curious what if any audio package this rom uses by default... Coming from clean rom 6.2 to this and using player pro (no equalizer used just installed and play) I notice there seems to be ALOT more bass in this rom than clean rom... Normally this would be fine however I've noticed on occasion distortion even after lowering the bass. Just curious as to what if any difference there is audio wise (and no I did not use any volume adjustments in aroma on this rom). Thank in advanced and otherwise this rom rocks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
I always use stock kernel or the one included in the ROM by the dev. They create these ROMs and I feel like they would know what works best on their ROM. Everyone will have different opinions and I know there are some great kernels out there, but I have never had a battery issue or any lag with stock kernel. Plus it supports my need for custom boot animation and sounds. I don't know if anyone wants sound for boot up and down but I can post a volume dB file that has the sound up. Just need to paste it in system/etc folder using a root browser. Or maybe andy can make a flash able or make it an option in the next release... Here's the nodded volumedb- http://db.tt/xWHBnHAk

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
that's very strange..

unless you chose the 50%/100% volume boost in Aroma, it is 100% stock.

I diffed CleanROM against my ROM, and all the libs are the same IF you picked stock for the volume boost.

I can upload you a file with the stock lib in it. if this fixes it, you must have choose a louder boost in Aroma on accident.

If it doesn't fix it. then I'm very curious as literally anything associated with volume = that of cleanrom

link for stock lib is attached at bottom of this post, please download and flash in recovery and let me know

completely agree, well said brother!

100% my fault!

Sorry about that!,

glad it's figured out and fixed now though!

thank you :)
