only 4.1.1 offers blocking mode, I dug the .apks apart and found JUST the missing code from the ATT .apks and made our 4.1.1 .apks (phone, contacts) 100% VZW with blocking mod code.

4.1.2 wasn't changed enough so there wasn't a reason to port into 4.1.2 .apks

so if you choose 4.1.2 you will not have blocking mode working..

but if you choose the 4.1.1 .apks you will have it working 100% with VZW applications

other ROMs use .apks from sprint or att, I like have all VZW applications personally.

blocking mode is pretty neat, and I don't really use it, but I still use the .apk in-case I do need to use it.

call/message block in settings.apk also works 100%, I also ported the code from att to our messaging.apk for that to work 100%..

basically if you see a ROM with blocking mode and are using VZW apps, they are using my method and work, Synergy for example had nicely asked to use it and they have incorporated it into their ROM, I like to give everyone options though, so that's why it's an option, and not just apart of the ROM :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
thank you Sir
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Thank you very much man!

and you are very welome
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] QBall45:
Of course. Check PM.

How can I enable long press to skip track mod?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prenedo:
Settings>sound>music control
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] chubbrock:
Sorry another question, would the 4.1.2 SMS/MMS break the vzw blocking? And thanks for your quick responses and fixes! Awesome job on your ROM loving it!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ccogan:
Would it be possible to add the camera with photo sphere? Is it the 4.2 camera?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Very welcome, good question, I coded the 4.1.2 messaging application so that is baked into the ROM.

I don't think that's on TW ROMs yet, but if it is then I can
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cynikalJ:
Yes this is good stuff Andy. Running smooth no bugs. Thanks for a great rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Yeah its not. There are just several TW roms that have the 4.2 camera available in aroma as an option to install. Probably what he's talking about.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] CeeMillz:
Scratch that, just read back :) 1.2 is awesome by the way.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
I PMed you, hope you got it.

I didn't mean to come off so harsh in the post.

I should have been more specific when I said about the expectations as that was to anyone reading, not directed towards you at all!

I hope no hard feelings my friend!!

and the fixes are coming soon, I just haven't had time to get to them, yet. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
This is very strange..

has anyone else had a problem like this?

I use BofA .apk a lot also and haven't seen this problem yet. :(

what firmware, rom # and theme are you on? :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Nutzzer:
Just wanna say, I flashed this rom last night and I am highly impressed with how snappy and feel for it. I was on synergy and I think this rom will be my daily driver.

One quick thing, how do I get rid of the persistent 4g LTE icon when I'm on Wifi? I never had that icon show up, but seems like the latest update has this. I read awhile back that it has to do with a particular app, and by freezing it or removing it, it will go back to how it was. Forgot which app.

Any help be great, thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Delete the Verizon Caller ID app. It is pay for bloatwear. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jackdubl:
Here's how I experience it on BofA: go into bill pay, outgoing payments, then either go look at one payment or just stay at the list of outgoing payments. Back out back to the main page(two backs) and it blacks out. Not every time(but close to half the time) and may depend on how fast you hit back. I am still on the mb1 firmware, other than that on 3.0 with AOSP theme(which is awesome).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Sounds like a Verizon/ BOFA problem to me. Nothing in rom should affect 3rd party app. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
I would flash the MF1 firmware..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jackdubl:
Were you able to replicate?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
haven't been able to try yet, but I suggest the firmware that goes with the ROM. :)

can always flash back to MB1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jackdubl:
Updated firmware. No effect on problem.

I'm thinking it may be the theme. I'm gonna see what happens if I don't apply the theme.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Could be but depending on how themed unless the app itself is themed should have no effect. Once you open app you are in app and no longer in rom. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cynikalJ:
Running great over here. Out of curiosity, I saw aroma got a huge update any plans to update aroma?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Not sure what you mean. Aroma is a base script and everyone writes different scripts off of it. Not all Aroma installers are the same or it would be much easier. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
You are most likely talking about the v2.70 beta6? I am using the latest official 2.56. I would have yo see if it's any better and how I evem update it. Will look into it. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sipple31:
I was getting some goofy black flickering in the stock Samsung mail app. I unchecked 'Force GPU Rendering' in Developer Options and it seems to have taken care of it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jackdubl:
Confirmed it's the rom. Happened on a fresh install w/o theme. Doesn't happen on the stock rooted mb1 backup I restored. Will try to stop gpu rendering. I'll bet that fixes it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gfausey211:
Can't see the battery bar? Choose it in Aroma along with no battery icon could that be the issue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
I agree maybe I an just to dumb to find it :p but I can't find it either
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jackdubl:
Ok, looks like turning off gpu rendering fixed the issue. So, what are the benefits of having gpu rendering on?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sipple31:
Not sure how credible these people are... but there's some good info here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1938081
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
I do enable GPU rendering in the ROM by default in the build.prop, so maybe it is conflicting :confused:

Having it un-checked is best, I will state in the instructions to un-check once booted. Thanks!

shoot, looking at the ROM.zip now, I forgot to add the batterybar.apk into Aroma. :o

Will have to install separately until the next release.

sorry guys.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gfausey211:
That's cool. Thanks for the fast answer. Where can I find the apk to install?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
It's cool :) you do much work here
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
It's best to uncheck gpu rendering and set animation levels to .5, it just works better on our screens. Battery bar is in the playstore. Search miu battery bar.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] viskey:
andy,

couple of things i just noticed coming to 3.0. Not sure if these are things that need to be fixed or they might be meant to be for reasons i am not aware of but i thought i would at least let you know:

- status bar transparency doesn't work with nova launcher

- i chose no file manager in aroma but i still have my files listed in my app drawer

- i chose no live wallpapers/installer in aroma but there are 2 that are still installed - bubbles & phase beam

- i didn't choose any vzw apps in aroma but i still have Verizon Login & Backup + media installed

- your op states in aroma we have the option for 8 versions of launchers but i only seen 4 when installing

suggestion:

maybe everyone doesn't think like me but you could remove the Android 4.2 keyboard from aroma and replace it with the Google Keyboard from the playstore. I personally use that one since its release and is really nice, almost identical and this way it will consistantly get updates:) ill leave this one up to you but thought id mention it

Thanks and keep up the great work! Make sure to give yourself enough time for a b**r or 6:)

Navigation Crash

Hi all -

I just switched to this ROM from mastamoon's CM 10.1 and am running into a major problem. When I am in Navigation and click the "Speak Destination" button, I get a force close from Maps. I searched the thread and couldn't find anyone else running into this issue.

This is after a complete factory wipe. I also tried clearing the data and cache for Maps and then uninstalled/reinstalled it without any luck.

I've attached a log here in case that helps identify the issue.

Is anyone else running into this issue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Thanks bro.

Did trans status bar ever work for Nova? Can't really support that launcher, if it works on stock launcher not sure what else to do.

For Aroma, good finds Sir, thank you for the feedback, Aroma scripting doesn't come easy to me, so this helps to track down anything I missed, will add on the to-do list for no launcher, and also add the remaining live wallpapers I missed added to Aroma.

I'll also add the backup + media into the Verizon section on Aroma, (I just realized that vmmhux.apk is it) and I would like to add Verizon login as well, do you know which .apk it is though?

As for the keyboard, I'll prob. Just leave the ones that I have and add in Google keyboard. I think I tried it for the beta but it f/c, could be missing a needed lib.

For the launchers its in OP as the extra launcher are in v1.6. You can use those and I may actually include them in v3.1 but they are Sprint .apks (which I didn't know at the time I included them or I wouldn't have added them). I will try and port to out launcher but no promises, so it's using at your own risk for the v1.6 launchers, they work fine for that base and should for this one as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
It almost looks like a hardwarecomposer problem ...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
I just tested and it works for me. Do you have Google search installed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] viskey:
sounds good, i already uninstalled it with TB and its not in there anymore or i would let you know the apk for verizon login, ok it just came to me, its like.....com.motricity.??????? it starts with that, thats all i remember from when i uninstalled it

no biggy on the launchers, i wasn't looking to use them i just wanted to let you know they weren't in aroma.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pkd600:
Transparent status bar works great on Nova Launcher. I've been using 75% transparency on both the status bar and pulldown on both BoneStock v2.0 and v3.0 and it works just fine with Nova Launcher.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] damnyouwaffles:
Anyone else getting signal drops with the new MF1 update? I usually get full bars/5bars, but with the update, I sometimes drop to 3 and go to 3g. Kinda weird because the MD3 worked great for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] viskey:
i do apolagize, it does work, i just did the 75% and we are good to go
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Glad you got it working. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] btonetbone:
I did not, and that was the problem! I just installed it and the problem is fixed. Many thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Very welcome my friend.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] viskey:
andy,

verizon login is com.motricity.verizon.ssodownloadable
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
I don't see this in system/app.

It must be a system/app for me to include in Aroma as option.

Thanks for taking the time to look.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] viskey:
your welcome!

It is listed in TB as Verizon Login, but once i uninstall it, it changes to that com. name

interesting....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
ok found it,

VzwSilentSSOEngine.apk

Not sure if I want to put in Aroma or keep permanetely. I think it's safe to delete and offer in Aroma.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Vidfreek:
Wow, all I got to say as that this is the smoothest and fastest ROM I've tried to date, have played around with Jellybeans, Hyperdrive, Plasma and various others (AOSP roms dont work on my phone anymore) and this is definitely the best touchwiz ROM I've run on my phone, things come up so fast and there is no bloat and extra junk that all the other ROMs have had. Fantastic work!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hallstevenson:
This is a general question that relates to your comment: When a build.prop setting enables a setting but a menu somewhere has the option to disable that same setting, which one "wins" ??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Good question.

Since I have it enabled in the build.prop it will work regardless of the it being checked in the settings.apk menu.

It most likely is best to actually turn if off in the settings menu to save any issues,

I will be suggesting this for now on. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] capt730:
Can we just edit the build.prop by removing this and making a backup of the original?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] viskey:
im 99% sure its safe to install, i have it uninstalled now and i also had it uninstalled when i was on 2.0 as well.

also, maybe i missed it in the settings but in 3.0 messaging settings, the option to turn keep the screen off isn't in there?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
If you selected the hour bug messaging stock app, it's not in that one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Yessir you can, if you want to remove GPU rendering

It speeds up the ROM nicely though.

but def. feel free to play around with it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] viskey:
i did the stock one with the hour bug fix, same one i chose when i was on 2.0 and it was in there....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] capt730:
I will try it both ways when I am off tomorrow and let you know how it goes. :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Not in v2.0/v3.0, for those having the hour bug (started in v1.5/v1.6 can't remember)

and I got it fixed for v1.6, so I added into Aroma an option for those having the hour bug. But starting with v2.0 I did the SAME fix as in v1.6 but those were still having the hour bug, so I was forced to use the stock .apk for those having the hour bug.

I would like to make a couple tests, but last time I did, I made 2 tests and once the ones testing found one that worked, they never tested the second one..

So I was un-able to fix it for you guys.

If someone or yourself is willing to test all of my test's that I make I can track down what I changed that is causing the issue and still include all the extended features, it just won't have the one that is causing the hour bug, and I know it's not the screen on/off toggle.

Let me know, and I'll start making tests. but I can't have the testers flash test1 have it have the screen on/off toggle and then stop, if I am taking the time to make all these changes I need testers to test every version as each one adds more features as we go until we find the bug, then I cut that one out..

Sounds good, thanks man.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hallstevenson:
I'm thinking that build.prop is actually just a starting point, not a fixed thing. For example, in build.prop, it defines the ringtone (Verizon_Airwaves) but that is NOT my ringtone. With GPU rendering, if it's turned off in build.prop, but the user turns it on in Developer options, I'm betting the "on" setting overrides build.prop.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Srambo217:
Had to exchange my device due to the input not charging the battery correctly. Currently on stock rooted but will be flashing 3.1 as soon as it's available! Very excited for this release.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Good point.

It's hard to tell.

I do know that it did seem to speed things up with those build.prop edits, and with it un-checked in settings everything seems to be smooth.

Not sure if removing the build.prop edits for it, would it fix the black screen flicker issue for those .apks if it is checked.

basically, I wonder if it'll still have the issue if the GPU rendering is removed from build.pop
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prenedo:
3.0 running great here Andy. Quick suggestion for future releases... When AOSP system sounds are selected, it keeps the 'water drop' dial-pad touch tones. Could you include aosp touch tones in future releases? I forget where the files/sounds are located, but I know it's a seperate sound set that needs to be replaced. That's all :D Thanks for another great release :thumbup:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
I honestly wouldn't be waiting for v3.1..

I just released v3.0 - 6/23 @ 6p.m. not even 2 days. :)

v3.1 isn't even in the works, and I wouldn't count on it being released for at least 2-3 weeks.

Aroma scripting is a PITA and is going to take a long time as I have to completely re-write to entire scripting code for Aroma to do what I want, and as you guys know there is quite a bit in Aroma. It's going to take me awhile of testing to get everything correct. (that's if I can even get it.. Hoping I can)

Hope that the new device is working properly for you, and to see you on v3.0! :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
GPU rendering will never be 100% till it is enabled in all apps. It breaks apps that don't have it coded in. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Thanks bro!

Yea absolutely, I will include the entire media/audio/ui from AOSP, in Aroma, so it chooses hopefully everything now.

I took the MOD from a Sprint ROM, not sure why it only has 4 files in there, it seems to only be like unlock, and a few others, hopefully if I do the entire folder, it will include the sound change you want. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Yea I know, were trying to figure out whats different between the included code in build.prop for GPU render vs. the toggle in settings > dev. options. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prenedo:
Jelly beans has the dial pad touch tones in aroma if that helps. Thanks for the quick response.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] McDastardly:
Ever since MD4, I get this message upon reboot while using light flow. I turn off the accessibility option and turn it back on and it goes away. Anyone know how to make it stay away for good?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Very strange Sir, I'll keep my eyes posted for any information on this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gfausey211:
Anyone know where I can find the Battery Bar .apk? Andy said he forgot it in the build so I'd like to flash it if possible.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
That is a lightflow bug. Been doing that ever since S3 came out. That is one of the reasons I don't use it. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
You can download one for free on the play store. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:

Can I use any kernel on this rom and newly based roms? This new update has been confusing to say the least so I am not sure...does the kernel have to be md3 or mf1 based? If I use a mb1 kernel will it break anything? Just trying to clarify...thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
I do believe you can you any kernel from mb1 md3 or mf1, as they are all 4.1.2 based.

Just make sure to do a nandroid before hand. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlokos:
If you update the firmware to MF1, you must use stock or KT; otherwise, you will bork the camera (FC). If you use the modified AIO firmware that is somewhere on this thread (or just stick with mb1), you can use any TW kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] akakai:
Have you tried using Light Manager?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cr4ck3r4lif3:
Kind of off topic but maybe someone can help.

How do you control the spacing from the bottom of the lidroid toggles and the top of of next item shown in the drop-down?

Looking for the xml to edit in system ui.apk.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hobart!:
No I like the mf1 base...its smooooth! I was just wondering so I dont break anything I cant reverse.or is a pain to reverse...lol I have the mf1 mb1 firmware from prdog..but I am cool with stock kernek for now. ..no worries thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:

The space is there because that's where the words for the toggles would be. Not sure if you can control that or not. Sorry I can't be more informative but that's the reason the space is there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nicholi2789:
I am very interested in this Rom. I've been trying to find a stock VRBMF1 rom that has adb as root. I doing alot of adb pusing and pulling of system files and I can't do that unless I can successfully adb remount. Scrosler's stock deodex rom says that it has adb as root but it doesn't. I posted in his thread and he said that he accidentally didn't do it and that he will fix it. Which is understandable, we all know he and other devs work so hard.

Anways, I have tried the newest Moar release and adb remount doesn't work on that either. Obviously because it is built off of Scott's MF1 deodex.

So basically what I'm asking is, will I have that same problem with this Rom? It looks very well put together and would very much like to try it.

Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlokos:
Then you are good on most any TW kernel, or the stock that comes with 3.0.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Dang, unfortunately, this is also based off scott's and I never thought to look to see if it had it working.

very sorry.

First I want to thank you Andy for your hard work on this awesome ROM and for being so available for support and requests. I'd like to add an experience I had with the Aroma installer. I selected the stock (non-inverted) gmail in Aroma but still got the inverted version. I had this in both v 1.6 and 3.0. I didn't try 2.0.

Edit - I uninstalled gmail app with Tibu and installed from play store. All good.
