That updater script don't matter. It depends on which of us writes it. It does the same thing. Only updater that is user/rom dependent is Aroma updater-script. :cool:

---------- Post added at 09:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:11 PM ----------

I would. MA2 was a test leak that was never released. The full leak was bad. You can flash MF1 firmware before, after or at same time as rom. It goes to a different partition and is independent of rom. If want to flash at same time pick it before rom so can just run through without stop. If pick rom first will have to uncheck reboot at end of rom flash to go back to recovery and manually boot.. :cool:

After I restored my apps with TB The phone will not reboot. Did anyone have problems restoring apps?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Must have restored data also. Shame on you. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] badbeats:
Yeah I did.. I usually restore with data when I did restores on AOSP. I guess that is bad....

Live and learn....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Can and will always have problems coming from AOSP. There is no safe dirty flash coming back to TW. I would wipe everything till raw and reflash. Data, system, dalvik and cache. The more the better. Contrary to recent beliefs and my thousands of beta test I still go with the multiple wipes especially if coming from AOSP. The original recovery devs, Amon and Koush didn't do it for no reason. Static flash memory is still static flash memory. Flash wiping and actually overwriting are 2 different animals. Flash the data is still there and the flash may miss some renaming as empty or corrupted block. That is why we have superwipe with ext4 support to fix the blocks that can't be fixed with flash. That being said AOSP data is not compatible with TW data as far as I'm concerned. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] badbeats:
Yeah....

Ok HELP

Titanium Backup

I see Restore

restore mising apps with data

restore all apps with data

restore all system data

restore missing aps + all system data

restore newer versions of apps

Am I missing restors apps?

thanks

---------- Post added at 10:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:07 PM ----------

Ah ok

Yeah I wiped everything data, dalvik, cache, etc a few times this time. I just want to use titanium to get my apk back.

Thank you for the help, the first flash of a new rom for me is always the worst.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
You can pick restore all apps with data. When get to restore page where everything checked at top you can change to apk only. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] badbeats:
Wow I knew that... 6 years using TB.... god been a long day

thanks again
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
No problem. I haven't used TIBU in a year. Deving so much my back only been on phone a half dozen times. :laugh::cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] badbeats:
Ok.... sigh......

I restored just the apps. No data. Same problem, on reboot it will not get past the lock screen.

Not my day.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
If not getting past lockscreen you have a bad download. If downloading to phone use Firefox, Opera Mobile or Chrome. Opera Mobile and Firefox the most reliable. If on PC check MD5 or try to open zip with 7-zip or winzip. If won't open it is bad. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] badbeats:
Oh not sure if I was clear or not. The md5 sums seem fine. I then use CWM and isntall it. It installs fine and boots up. It seems to be working fine. I then use TB to restore my apk's. Then when I reboot it freezes.

I assume its the TB restore.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Has to be. TB backup is bad. I never do AOSP and if that is what it was backed up from could be the problem. Never had a TIBU problem restoring antway but I also never cross platform. You say now why is it cross platform. ASOP is built from straight Android source and they build their way. AOSP, AOKP and CM are still all different and their own idea of what the source should be. The OEMs (ie, HTC, Samsung, LG,ect) take source and build their own version of Android. The file names and the files don't match and are not compatible. Each is a different idea of what Android should be. That is why the OEMs don't have to provide source unless they want to. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] badbeats:
I guess this is going to take a lot longer to restore then normal... oh well

Thanks again for the help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
No problem. I always restore from scratch. lol The studies have shown that the average amount of apps actually used by an individual is 16 although we may try to restore hundreds to thousands. If I restored every app I downloaded would be in the thousands. I may use 5-10. :laugh::cool:

Is anybody else having an issue with android os using around 25% battery in battery info? Can't figure out why, if somebody can help that would be great.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Dearborn1977:
Anyone else get contacts fc when while you're looking at a contact, hit menu key and choosing "Block Settings"?

---------- Post added at 09:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:52 AM ----------

If your phone is otherwise idle, that's not necessarily unusual. The percentages are relative, so if you're not using your phone much android os and kernel might be at the top of the list.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] StrumerJohn:
Nope.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYSAKZ:
You have to check both call and message block and for some reason it will state unfortunately contacts has stopped so yeah I have but you can work around it cause contacts will let you call block and messaging will let you text block
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
So I just did a clean flash, haven't even installed any apps. I'm going to slowly add apps. One thing I'm missing is voice to text. Neither on samsung keyboard or google keyboard, I don't have the microphone option to do voice to text. What am I missing?

Solved: had to install google search and than enable voice typing in language and input.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
do you have it enabled in language/input?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Yeah I had to do that, but needed google search first. thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vettejock99:
I searched the thread last night, but I didn't see this so hoping someone can help me out. I was running 3.1 a long time and really like it, but I did a full wipe and installed 3.3. Now my mount for /sdcard seems to point to /sdcard/0 in many apps when booted into the ROM and even in TWRP recovery. I don't think this was the case with 3.1 and the impact to me has been that I can't seem to navigate to files I need in the actual /sdcard folder (as it acts like /sdcard/0 is root for that path) and in the ROM it broke all my media scanner links, for example (though I believe it has rescanned and fixed). Is this expected behavior, and is there any way to make it revert to the other behavior (where /sdcard/0 doesn't come into play)?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Sounds like you went to the darkside and flashed AOSP based rom. Shame on you. Wipe your sd and delete the infestation. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Okay, completely fresh install, no apps installed yet. Been about 2 hours. Android OS seems rather high? I'm thinking its because the phone is still setting in but the whole reason I started over, was because it was similar percentage all the time before on my previous setup. Maybe it's suppose to be there but just wondering. Not trying to harp on battery life, as I think I get good life on this rom. Just experimenting here and curious.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Standard Samsung Base bug. Been doing since ICS. Flash stock and will see same thing. Will settle out eventually. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vettejock99:
Yeah, I confess. Man, why did it mess with my SD card? That's exactly what I did though, went from 3.1 to try AOSP and then back to 3.3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
4.2 and 4.3 adds SD0 for the multi user. Save what you need from that folder and delete it. Will be good to go. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Okay thanks lol I was hoping by starting fresh wasn't a complete waste.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vettejock99:
Will do
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
No worries brother, I don't think there is much anyone can do to deny the great battery life on this bad boy :)

Hope that you get the battery life deserved.

Also would not consider this a waste.

Clean Fresh is always good once in a while.

I like to do it to my CPU about once a year.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rootofalldroid:
Is formatting system /data/cache/sdcard along with wiping dalvik overkill ? Since we are on this subject
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] syintiphic:
I tried BoneStock v3.3 for the first time a few weeks back and gotta hand it to you, this is a top notch ROM. Keep up the great work!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Excessiveidling:
So I ran into the dreaded package file is invalid and did the usual clearing data, cache for play store as well as services as well as rebooted even deleted and readded my Google account to no avail.... Is this issue caused because I'm not using the official rom from my provider? I'm running bonestock 3.3 now and just recently noticed the issue as I was working fine before. Any info is appreciated (more than likely will clear dalvik to see if that helps)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYSAKZ:
I have only run into that occasionally during app installs but a wipe as you mentioned and of course a reboot clears that right up
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jackdubl:
Formatting the sd card is definitely overkill.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Yeah only thing I think you need to format is system. Than I always wipe data, cache, dalvick.

Roaming network notification

So, this morning I was just on the edge of service and my phone buzzed. When I looked at it, it had a message. "Roaming service notification". When I click on the message my phone hangs for a few seconds and then says: "Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped." but I can't get the message to go away. I haven't tried rebooting but I'm pretty confident that it would work. Just thought I'd share my findings...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wolfballz:
Same thing happens here when I go from Arizona to San Diego and am in no reception areas. Rebooting will make it go away. It is not ROM related as my wifes S3 which is stock does the same thing and have to reboot to clear it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] blueb0x:
It's weird but that's happened to me in certain parts of my house and at work. A reboot will fix. I agree it's not rom related.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] badbeats:
Just a few questions.

1. How exactly do I get the multi windows to work? Sorry I just have not figured it out.

2. Does anyone know which themes would work with this ROM. I really did not want to just try one, and then mess up my phone.

Thank you!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 0331:
Themes for touch wiz based, aka stock based roms should work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
1. Press and hold the back button. It should pop up. If it doesn't, go into settings>display>make sure multiwindow is checked. Close multiwindow again by holding the back button down.

2. Not really sure, but before you flash anything, make a backup! Then if you do screw up, you can go right back as if nothing ever happened.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] StormFreak:
Haven't posted in awhile because this ROM is running so well for me! However I have noticed 1 new thing. I have always used the pop-up browser with this ROM, but the past week or so, my battery life decreased noticeably. When looking in battery stats, I saw that pop-up browser was using 20-30% of my battery. Reboots didn't resolve the issue. I froze the pop-up browser in ROM Toolbox, and now everything seems back to normal (15-16 hours with 3 hours screen-on time). Has anyone else encountered this with the pop-up browser? Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Wipe dalvik and cache. Then reboot. It will unlock processes that hung up. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tampaboy1984:
Does this rom have lidroid tweaks? I wanna use Ultimate OMG the but don't know which version to download?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Dearborn1977:
You'll be reflashing the rom if you try to flash the omg themes. They are not compatible.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prenedo:
Yes it does have lidroid, but that theme is incompatible. If I'm not mistaken, that theme is built for the 15 toggle mod that's included on CR7, unless scot includes the newer lidroid now (this and most other ROMs include the 'new' 23 toggle mod)... Not sure if switching to the 15 toggle mod would allow it to be flashed (this used to work back when ROMs started using lidroid 23), but that could start to conflict with some of Andy's mods.

Check out morphology though, it uses VRTheme and *should* work on this ROM. Morphology has most of wasabis themes built into it....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
HaHaa. Good answer. To get full theme have to use Andy's or Bandits. If can live with partial VR Theme have to delete all XML's and resource.arc from theme. Or at least the one's that Andy has modded. Scott does have 15 Toggle. For 23-15 have to replace all the xml's which will also break the clock and other mods in BoneStock. Not as easy as it looks. That is why my theme is built specific for each rom. OCD doesn't allow for partial theme. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tampaboy1984:
Another 2 questions, I installed the AOSP theme and really like it. But is there a way to make the app drawer less transparent? Its really busy with the fully transparent drawer and kinda hard to distinguish my apps from the background. Also is it possible to turn on wallpaper scrolling?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Change wallpaper. My theme is same. Can't tell you what file that background is in now but it could be made solid. Need darker wallpaper so text shows up. Icons look fine. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tampaboy1984:
But I really like my wallpaper :-/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Probably look same on any rom/theme. Put in Gimp and darken the background. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tampaboy1984:
So I take from your responses I can't enable scrollable wallpaper in TW or darken the app drawer?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
I'm using a 4x5 scrollable wallpaper tw launcher. I've never looked to change the transparency of the app drawer but it shouldn't be too hard. Probably an edit to colors.xml or syles.xml from aa00000 to ff000000 for pure black...

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
You can get International I9003 launcher that will scroll wallpaper in any configuration you want. Can solid the background but I would have to find the mod. Working on several themes now so I don't have time to look. Search is your friend. :cool:

---------- Post added at 04:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:56 PM ----------

If it a values xml will have to decompile, mod , recompile Andy's files and then transfer resources.arc to theme. Easy mod. :laugh::cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Yeah. I themed my own tw launcher. Just never looked for that background. I prefer it semi transparent as I use a dark wallpaper. But it would be an easy mod. :D

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Use nova launcher or something similar. You can adjust app drawer transparency separately using those launchers.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Don't learn anything doing that way. Lose TW widgets and half of our themes. Can probably do with Exposed also. :p:laugh::cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Truee..but what worthwhile TW widgets are available that you can't find replacements for in the play store? Is there really that much themeing in the launcher? Just wondering :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
We also theme most the icons also and you have to take the time to transfer them. Lockscreens themed. We theme everything per rom. Even Homescreen folders themed. I never used the widgets but a lot do. I use AWP. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
I hear yah. I guess when you can theme, you opt for stock launchers since you can easily make your own style with them. I on the other hand cannot theme, therefore I go for Nova for example to give me themed icons, etc lol But what is AWP??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
May be APW widgets. They are free and work with Samsung and Google apps. Multiple themes available. Have calenadar, people, Facebook, twitter ect. Most widgets to replace anything and work with TW or 3rd party launchers. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
thanks, I will have to check that out! I'm actually thinking of trying the TW launcher out. I'm content with this rom but I get bored and still need to tinker with my phone. First thing I installed on this phone was Nova. Never really used the stock launcher.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
With Nova you get the fancy folders and animations. Depending on how you work it can be good or very laggy. Just depends if understand and can manipulate the options. I used Apex for a while on Rezound just cause the homescreen folders were ugly. Now stock TW folders the same except in our theme we have like three different themed options of folder. Andy has transitions built in. To me there is no other reason for third party launcher. I fixed the things I had a problem with and runs as fast as designed. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Yeah it definitely feels very snappy with stock launcher. Two complaints though:

1. The distance between the dock icons to the first row of icons on the home screen is pretty big. Those damn dots are there. I'm probably just use to Nova but it just feels like wasted space.

2. There are no shortcut options. For instance google music, on nova I have a folder of shortcuts to playlists for recently added and most played.

They're relatively minor complaints but just issues that I can see why 3rd party launchers are so popular.

EDIT: Just realized only have the stock 4x4 launcher. I could of sworn I selected the 4x5 option. Do I have to reflash the whole rom or can I copy the 4x5 laucher apk into system/apps?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Depends which launcher you use. Our theme supplies 4x4, 4x5 and 4x6. That fixes space problem. lol TW has folders also and can add as many apps as you want. Our folders are themed. We call this one "Beam Me Up Scotty". :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Only feature I miss using tw is overlapping and resizing widgets. Otherwise tw launcher is easy to theme and definitely a snappy light launcher. Been trying the xperia launcher and that too is pretty nice. Oh also vertical scrolling in app drawer. I really like vertical scrolling...

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
If you can theme Experia let me know. It is an app and it crashes on decompile for me. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Need the xperia framework I think to theme it. I've tried myself numerous times. Same result as you. Still a decent launcher. If you get it to recompile let me know what you did. :D:cool:

Thebe@r'$ G@L@XY
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Yeah I took a stock 4x5 launcher from hyperdrive and replaced the one in this ROM. So I'm rocking a 4x5 again! But that theme is awesome. What status bar is that? Or is that your bandits theme? Lol I didn't recognize the 4g icon. In your op you have WiFi turned on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Yea. Wasn't worth the time to me to chase Sony framework. I hate ports. If want that **** should buy one. :p:laugh::cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Lol. I agree. But I have the launcher and it works good on our phones. I'm not hunting down any other frameworks either. I was pissed off that I had to install 4.3 to recompile updated apps. Anyone figure out the trick to recompiling the updated google keyboard? No one I know has figured out that mystery...
