[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
yes..

but this is a vague question. If coming from a previous BoneStock ROM that is 3.0 and above then yes

any other version before v3.0 or any other ROM you must fully wipe.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidxxxxx:
Never really dirty flashed before does it keep your apps and everything? And I am coming from 3.2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] schneid:
Try clearing cache and data on any calendar apps and storage.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYSAKZ:
Andy I know this is off topic and I should be elsewhere but I just figured you're the smartest person I know with regards to thisstuff since the new update of Google maps I can't get Google Maps the old version the new version nothing to lock it has nothing to do with the rom I just figured I'd ask

---------- Post added at 05:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:43 PM ----------

I would hate to keep tightening the screws to it would just wind up stripping them
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bairste:
Thanks for that. I did all but the storage.:)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYSAKZ:
What you have to do is delete the Google Calendar with Titanium Backup and then re download it from the Play Store and it syncs no problem
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] schneid:
I was stuck yesterday on both the Play Store and Calendar. Fixed the Calendar but never got the Store to sync.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
please do a nandroid, and check it out.

no idea, probably why it's not official yet. may not be working on this phone..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
New maps is official and locking fine here. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYSAKZ:
I am just screwed cause I can't get this thing to lock for anything I wiped the cash I wiped the Dalvik Cache I wiped the cash in the out Application Manager nothing no matter what I do won't lock I tightened yhe screws with the dollar store screw driver like you and I spoke about previously and still nothing
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mystique:
Not sure if I am one of the last people to embrace Google minus.. but I still want to keep Talk around for as long as I can..

Totally not interested in hangouts or Google minus..

Just saying..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYSAKZ:
And again I know it has nothing to do with the rom because previous it wasn't working right when the Google Maps updated it wouldn't want to lock anymore
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Clear data and cache and reboot. Anyone having issues with google apps syncing, try signing out of your google account. Reboot into recovery wipe cache and dalvik. Boot up and sign in to google. It's worked for me in the past. Coming in August I hear all g apps will be tied into g plus. :mad:

Just saw google updated maps again today. Anyone else think they have 8 year olds designing their apps? Looks like it was drawn with crayon on looseleaf paper.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BigBallin:
goin to give this rom a try since clean rom isnt getting any further support, at least for now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Figures.. literally like an hour after release of v3.3 Google updates Maps.

lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Pm'd you a link to look at for gps.

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
thanks.

I think GPS is fine though..

after I updated I tested and locked inside my appt in 5 flashes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Cool. Wasn't sure if others were having issues after the screw trick. I know that would just look like chinese to most people though...

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
thank you, Sir.

Will def come in handy if people are having issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BrUhNiGGs:
When dirty flashing from 3.2 to 3.3, I would choose the modify option in aroma correct? And press no change for most things.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
You don't want to choose full wipe :)

so the other option is the one you want.

then choose "no change"

for everything you don't .. want to change

also untick everything that can be unticked such as apps, unless you want that app,

and then change what only what you want. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
If doesn't flash entire rom won't get the updater script changes for 3.3. If not playing with messaging shouldn't matter tho. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Dearborn1977:
I just chose the "clean install" option to upgrade from 3.2 and it worked fine.. everything's still there!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WestOkid:
Andy,

Seems like most of the changes are to skinny down the ROM. Being that I am loving 3.2 with the AOSP theme and have no wants or needs, am I missing out if I don't upgrade to 3.3?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
read the change-log and decide for yourelf, it's dependant per user, I can't say if it's worth it or not for you.

"Slimmed Down the ROM by about 10MB

Removed some apps that can be found in the Play Store

Updated Gmail, Hangouts, Kies, Maps, Allshare, Samsung push, SuperSU

Cleaned up un-needed code in SecMms.apk for Call/Message Block MOD

Added more status bar icon .png images (Silent, Vibrate, Bluetooth, etc)

ADB works as should, can now adb remount, etc

Added Exit Menu to Browser

Snooze Enabled by Default for Alarms

Fixed updater-script:

Allows to switch between AOSP and TW SMS

Added a few Extended SMS Features for those having hour bug:

Screen On/Off Toggle

Group Messaging

Split-View On/Off Toggle

Save/Restore Messages

Scheduled Messaging

Vibration

Signature"

basically the only new features are the people having tw mms hour bug now have more extended features, and ADB works as should, can now adb remount, etc

Added Exit Menu to Browser, and Snooze Enabled by Default for Alarms

up to you if you think these are worth it..

I added the optin in Aroma to specifically cut down on these questions.

You have the option to change only what you want.

I personally think it's worth the download to have so if u want to change things u can.

:)

I may be able to put out a patch for those on v3.2

I still feel that the v3.3 ROM is worth having though on the SD-Card
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYSAKZ:
Bear how does one go about signing out of the Google account I know it sounds like an infant question but I guess I'm just not sure which way you suggest I do that cause now I'm having people detail sync error
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WestOkid:
Thanks for the response. I don't think there is anything That will affect me, but I feel compelled to move to the latest. Lol. Makes no sense, but when the ROM creator says he thinks it's worth it... I'll just cross my fingers and flash away.

Just got .3 all set up(clean install) and everything seems to be running great with the exception that while Wi-Fi is on my 3g icon is present. I don't know if it matters but it's something I've never noticed before. Is there anything I should do or should I just let it ride?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
If you installed the Caller ID app delete it. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hank3fan:
Right on. I literally did that right before I came to check if anyone replied. I'm all set.

Still not able to use the "Chrysis" battery icon option. I choose it in Aroma, but just get stock battery upon boot. Maybe just remove from Aroma?

Also, for some reason Google isn't auto-restoring my apps from the Play Store upon setup. Any idea what would cause this? I always check "Keep my phone backed up with my Google account".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Remove it?? :confused:

no...

fix it?

YES

with over 40 batteries I'm bound to have a mis-spell but won't know until someone tells me.

It's already fixed for next release. ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ryezen:
Awesome, thanks much--looking forward to trying it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pettigrew95:
First off thanks so much Andy! Quick question, anyone know why I can't connect to my phone using WiFi File Explorer or Airdroid anymore? I type the IP into my browser and hit enter and it can't reach it. Also, noticing I can't even ping my phone. I have ruled out firewall, networking, etc. I remember reading a while ago about some command to enter into terminal emulator to get it work but I forget. Any input is greatly appreciated!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BigBallin:
couple issues I'm having. when trying to use multi window it says white listed using stock function. And when using the stock internet app it gets such on Google. I type in an address, and it just goes back to my homepage

---------- Post added at 05:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:12 AM ----------

I'm having the same issue, how do I remove that app via using the phone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
something like root explorer
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BigBallin:
thanks got it. any help with the multi window issue? where when I use it it says white listed using stock function
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
That is back to kill. Means you have another app open. You close apps before using multi-window. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
not sure what the issue is, it says white listed because u have back to kill, and when u are trying to kill something like settings, phone it's on the white listed app and then it works as it should.

either disable the long press to kill, or change it to menu.

can find it in settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BigBallin:
thanks I'm new to your rom and didn't realize that is what it ment.

another question for anyone. I like to use the Google voice ( like siri) to make appointments extc but can't find the widget for it. I installed the asop theme of that matters at all. and when I hit menu then search, nothing happens.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Depends which widget. Long press menu brings up GNow. The quick search bar on the home screen does same. or voice search Icon in the app drawer. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BigBallin:
thanks but I ninja`d you. my menu search doesn't bring up anything. or the long menu hold doesn't bring up anything. I probably forgot to install something during install
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Go back throug the mod only option. If just loaded 3.3 it may have been removed and can download Google Search from the Market. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BigBallin:
I just downloaded Google search now it's good :) high five, thanks

---------- Post added at 06:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:22 AM ----------

thanks, we posted at the same time :)

noob here, if I just flash the zip again will it give me the mod option?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Yea. You can change mods without flashing entire rom. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mkintop:
Is Group Messaging better with TW or AOSP messaging? I tried AOSP on Bonestock 3.2 but group MMs did not work with iPhones consistently. I ended up installing Verizon Messaging which works great but is really ugly to use. I've also tried Chomp and some of the other messaging apps but didn't like them either.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nico4k:
Is there a delta for this ROM? Or can we just flash the new ROM over the current and keep settings, data, etc? By the way, Loving this ROM. It is my daily driver now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
What is a delta??

And Yes, you can dirty flash the new update, or choose MOD only and changes things that way
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
You can dirty flash anything. Whether it causes problems or not never know till it's done. That being said you should be able to dirty flash with no problem. If have problem don't report till bug shows after a clean flash. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hank3fan:
Man I know this has been asked before but I've never seen anyone answer and I'm getting a large amount of results when I search.

The volume boost in the add ons. Does it increase audio out or just the phone speaker itself? Is it the 100% or 50%. It didn't specify on the dh download page.

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
I honestly don't know maybe someone can chime in..

just try it though..

It's an Aroma .zip that has the option to change between stock, 50% and 100%..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Addiso:
It increase volume overall of the the whole system, personally I wouldn't go with 100 at all just way too loud, 50 could just about pass.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
50 is perfect 100 is almost louder than the ONE which is to loud
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zmedhaug:
Does anyone know where to grab the completely stock kernel? The one that would support the stock boot animation? That X is just blah!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
[/COLOR]

Stock animation should work fine. Have to remove the x bootanimation zip and replace with stock boot ani. The stock boot ani is removed from what I can see. The stock one around somewhere just need to search.:cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Flash the file attached.

I made it so it should delete the current bootanimation.zip and give you the stock one.

http://d-h.st/B7g
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zmedhaug:
Thanks Andy. That didn't work because the kernel doesn't support qmg files. I'd need the completely stock kernel, the qmg boot animation
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
stock kernel.

http://d-h.st/2Uh
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zmedhaug:
Dang it I'm lost. Didn't work either. It's like I have no boot animation now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jackdubl:
Andy, I made something for ya in case you wanted it. I pulled this cyan LTE icon from the Verizon Google Edition S4 rom; I think it looks much better than the 4Glte symbol our phone has. I adjusted the graphics to work with our resolution. I already put it I'm my copy of the 3.3 AOSP theme, but maybe you want to put it in the rom. Also, I noticed the data-in icon was white on all your alternate color options. Don't know if that was on purpose or an oversight. I attached a cyan colored one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mystique:
I use kt747 tw 5-31 kernel..

And I use cleanrom qmg files and bootanimation zip..

Chmod as well.. otherwise you get the stock android logo..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nico4k:
I meant a flashable zip that only installs the updated changes of the ROM, that wayi don't have to keep wiping and fresh installing the new updates?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WestOkid:
Dirty flashing the ROM over itself does the same thing as the "delta" you seek. Normally, there is no need to wipe if you are installing the same ROM.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nico4k:
Awesome! i will give a try sometime this week. thanks! :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WestOkid:
Cool. Just wipe the cache to clear any temporary stuff before flashing and you should be good.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
I work oposite from yall. If I dirty flash I prefer to flash old data over Clean flashed rom instead of clean rom over dirty data. Also don't have to rerun the theme. Get 100% restore first time. Make Nand/Cleanflash rom/ Restore data only from Nand. Profit. All data, settings, tweaks and theme 100% restored. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cr4ck3r4lif3:
There's no difference other than just flashing dirty is quicker. I used to full wipe, install rom, advanced restore data, but found the end result was the same.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BrUhNiGGs:
Hey Andy have you ever thought about adding PIE controls in aroma if possible?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jdog_12345:
What do you use to make your nand backup? Do you use ADB? I have been looking for a better way to backup and restore but I have no idea how to use ADB.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cr4ck3r4lif3:
Either twrp or cwm.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
No difference if run stock theme. Don't have to reflash any themes regardless of which you use. If themed have to flash twice. With different zips. I just flash rom and Nand back to back. No need to go through second Aroma zip. Definitly faster than straight dirty flash if themed. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
... It's already an option. :confused:

A custom recovery. TWRP is my preference
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mystique:
Other than the circle mod battery icon..

Any idea on what it takes to get the battery percentage to show in the lock screen?

Maybe a mod of some type?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Why would you need it on the lock screen when it's right on the status bar? Just curious. I'll look into the MOD as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dunlap92:
Have you tried uninstalling maps with root uninstaller and re installing it via play store?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MetalMan2:
Today I finally got around to installing 3.3 (dirty flash over 3.2). Twice now I've come across the same issue, so I wanted to bring it up.

While installing the 3.3 ROM, I choose "no change" for most stuff, including messaging (I'm using TW messaging default). Messaging worked fine after installing the ROM, including keeping all of my messages. With 3.2 I was using the AOSP theme.

Now my issue is, after I install the 3.3 AOSP theme over the 3.3 ROM, when it boots back up all of my messages are gone. While installing 3.3 AOSP theme I selected "TW messaging default".

The first time this happened I thought I made a mistake, so I reverted to my recent TWRP backup, and tried again. This second time confirmed the issue.

Any idea what's going on? Maybe there's something I can try differently? Maybe I should try selecting TW messaging when I install the ROM? (instead of selecting "no change") Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Anyone know if the down data arrow issue with it turning white while using the cyan color is fixed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYSAKZ:
Not yet I even as one person suggested waze navigation app and that locked quick and then stopped lost GPS signal and never came back I will try and report back and I am open to any suggestions. it's just a shame cause andy gave us such an amazing rom and Samsung just kills me with there terrible updates. I blame them
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Should have picked no change again in Aroma it is set up for swapping back from AOSP messaging and will delete the messages to avoid a FC of messaging. Need a second option for TW in Aroma that does not wipe or a note to avoid or pick no change. Myself I would also default to no change. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ty07allstar:
I'm assuming since it's the same theme it's still not fixed. I mentioned this several times before but nobody ever responded. Hopefully it will get fixed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
After install I always turn on all location services, wifi and reset and download AGPS data with GPS Status Toolbox. Mine shows locked and sitting on my head in my chair. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] putney1477:
Really? I can't get it to work at all. I tried DL the apk and installed it on my phone. Even tried using dolphin browser (come to find out its not compatible)..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Dolphin may have updated to not use anymore. The JB flash works if app is compatible. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
ahh bummer. Hopefully Andy can look into it if he has time. Not a huge deal but keeps me from using it lol there is plenty other stuff to use.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
How many people watching your download arrow. It even white in my theme. One of those irrelevant things I haven't taken 2 minutes to fix. At least I hooked yall up with most of the stat and missing cyan icons. :p:laugh::cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
I think I may have made the script that way so can switch back and forth and forgot to warn it wipes messages. Sorry, Sir. On phone now so can't look to confirm
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
That is what it is. That why we have 2 TW versions. Just add a Install TW with no folder like No Change and mark other one as restore from AOSP. No need to bloat with TW app. It should have been installed with 3.3 Base install. That way they cant bork it up. Those that flash AOSP messaging and lose their 10,000 messages I have no sympathy for. :D:cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wyvern49:
I don't think this is ROM related but I'm having an issue with setting wallpaper on my lockscreen. If I go to settings and try to set the wallpaper for my Home Screen I get a choice of using Wallpapers or Gallery where Gallery lets me choose any of my custom wallpapers. If I choose Lockscreen or both I can only select from Wallpapers. I'm not sure when this started. I know it is the case with 3.3 (I'm also using the AOSP theme but It acted the same after a clean install before I installed the theme), I went back to a nand of 3.2 with the AOSP theme and it was the same way. I haven't gone back further but I know Gallery was available for Lockscreen on the 2 series and, I believe 3.0, since I changed the Lockscreen wallpaper on those installs. Its not a major problem but if anyone has any thoughts I'd appreciate it. Also, where are the wallpapers stored that Wallpapers shows you and can I add my own wallpapers to that location?

Thanks.

I know AFH is working on their network (and I'm guessing the answer is no), but are there any other mirrors?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MetalMan2:
If you could implement a "no change" related to flashing TW messaging over TW messaging in the AOSP theme, that would be great! Restoring messages takes a long time on my phone (I'm one of the people with 1,000's or stored messages), and when I do it messes up the way the MightyText app loads messages. So if I can just flash the AOSP theme TW MMS over (like how it worked before) then I would be much appreciative!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Adding to list for next release. What do you do with all those messages anyway?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
