Great Work!

Still loving this ROM as my DD. Great work again, Andy.

Maybe that is the fix for the package fail bug they are working on. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
Probably. Only jumped .0.01. Minute update...

Wow does that look sexy!

I just tried it out, and it looks great. The one thing that did not "theme" was dolphin browser. I still have the original dolphin icon.

Also when I rebooted chrome browser was missing. I redownloaded it, so not really a big deal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] myk.robinson:
Another semi-related question. Since I use this ROM, i guess this is the right place...

I have a car cradle to hold my GS3 on the dashboard when driving. When I plug the AUX cable from my stereo into the phone, I can hear the music or whatever, and it works well. I cannot, however, use the onboard microphone. Apparently when an audio cable is plugged into the jack, even though there is no conductor for a microphone, the internal mic is muted, meaning I have to unplug the audio cable and just pic up the phone to use it.

Is there a toggle somewhere, or some kind of hack to allow this to work as I am expecting it to? Seems the internal mic should not be muted if there is no other mic present to perform the same function.

thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gorgarath:
I've noticed this as well.

I'd be interested in hearing about any solutions to this as well. Or if anyone has an extra micro-USB to stereo/USB car dock cable they'd be willing to send so I don't have to use the headphone jack as mine got bitten by the cat and is all static-y.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlyle:
Dolphin icon is not themed but I may change that if desired :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] badbeats:
Oh I swear I saw a dolphin in the aroma options. If you could that would be great!

Also I saw so many options. Is there a thread where you can see how the options look first, and then choose? I sort of just clicked whatever sounded great and overall the phone looks amazing, but I had no idea what I was really getting.

Thank you again for the theme its really fantastic.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlyle:
After ur first flash u can do mods only and select different things toggles, folders etc and that flashes pretty fast.. I will work on screen shots of all different options when I get time... Let's move to theme thread for any further chats as I don't want to plug up bones thread :cool:

Dolphin was just an option in blackout app section but no additional themeing has been done to blackout app. (yet) ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prenedo:
I would assume this is related to the issue of voice commands not working when connected to BT. I believe that android 4.1 shuts off your phones mic when a device is plugged in, thinking/assuming that the device has an external mic. This was addressed in android 4.2.2, so the only 'fix' I know of is to run AOSP. Make a backup and try it on CM 10.1... It should work for ya. I know it works for the BT situation described above, but should be the same idea.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gcodori:
I use the headphone jack to plug into my car stereo. I am still able to use the mic to answer calls, etc.

It even pauses the music for calls and notifications. The only downside is the length of the pauses. Even for a simple Ding it pauses for a good 15 seconds or so. And I end up missing a few seconds of whatever is playing. It's like each sound had a few seconds of no sound at the end of the file.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sithlyone:
Hello, I am looking to install the Bonestock Rom and I have a couple questions. I appologize if any of these seem noobish (well thats because I am a noob here) and/or if they have been asked in this thread already. (And since this is an epic long thread I figured someone could answer my question before I got even a quarter of a way through :fingers-crossed:) I did try to search through the thread but I either couldn't understand what was being discussed or it didn't deal with my current issues.

Here it is I watched Tomsgt video on Youtube and while it was very thorough I was left with a couple of questions/concerns.

1. Do I need to install a Kernel before installing this rom? If so can you point me in the direction of the right one.

2. If the answer is no, then if I flash the lean kernel will that mess things up?

3. What is MD5? In the video he says to not back it up, but in the OP (or there abouts) it gives instructions to do something with it. I just want to make sure I don't mess something up.

Now if there are sections in this thread that discuss any of my concerns, please point me in the right direction.

Thank you so much for your help

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PaulG1488:
Never mind false alarm complete noob error on my part. I had music control set to off in the sound settings. Didn't realize that was the volume skip mod once I set it to on it started working.

---------- Post added at 11:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:01 PM ----------

Go into your sound settings from the phone main menu and turn music control on. That solved it for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Thank you, Sir.

Makes me feel better about uploading v1.4 :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] crjjr:
The download link is still showing 1.3. Did you get 1.4 uploaded yet or am I just too impatient?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ufjay5:
Is there a way to get tw messaging to have a pop up like aosp messaging without a third party app? Also, anyone know if they fixed the aosp group messaging issue with I phone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] QBall45:
Impatient.

Andy will post the link in here when it's uploaded.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShhImSleeping:
Lol I appreciate the suggestion, but my first post mentioned I already had it on in settings, thanks though man.

I even downloaded google play music, no luck there either. I'm starting to wonder if one of the aroma options I chose somehow is affecting the volume skip. I chose pretty much everything stock except for the keyboard, white lidroid toggles, and grey battery. Hmm..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
new v1.4 links are up.

unfortunately there is nothing in Aroma that would throw this off :confused:

the only file affected by this is the android.policy.jar and it's hard wired into the ROM, nothing in Aroma edits it :/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
Hey andy if I already have the 1.4 msgr and the 1.4 contacts on 1.3, do I need to install 1.4 and set everything up again? Are there any other changes not listed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShhImSleeping:
No worries man, I'll try 1.4 and report back, no use dwelling on an old version lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
good question, no you will be good to go, unless you want like SG4 accuweather, you are all set :)

this was mainly a release to get everything up to date
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ufjay5:
Is a full wipe absolutely necessary from 1.3 to 1.4?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
Is the widget available as a flashable? I dont really need it just wondering
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] trueParadoX_2446:
A full wipe isn't absolutely necessary but is always recommended. You never know what bugs might form after dirty flashing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] STLRamsFan1k:
So far really liking this ROM! Just like cleanrom but without the hassle of having to install mod after mod after mod. For those that still use it, acid audio 7 works fine with this, with the stock volume level setting.

One thing I would like to see is folders closing automatically when you open an app that is inside a folder. Pretty sure synergy had that and it was pretty useful in my opinion. A bit annoying when you exit an app and you still have to close the stupid folder...

Otherwise, keep up the great work! :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bluphi1914:
so the links are down again?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ed hit:
1- comes with standard kernel which I have been very happy with.

2- I think you can do lean kernel just fine but I don't.

3- just a way to ensure you have a good download. Google md5 checking and you can get a download from CNET that works fine. Prdog will say not really needed if you download on a computer and can open the zip.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] badbeats:
1. No

2. No

3. Md5 are basically a check to make sure the the package you get downloaded correctly. If the sums match up then the file is good to flash.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sithlyone:
Thanks so Much. Do you know if there is anything important in this thread I should look at before I proceed? I know that seems lazy, but like I said earlier, this is an amazingly long thread. ..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Bonkurei:
im on MB1 stock rooted, after flashing bonestock do i need to flash MF1 firmware as well or its fine if its not?

Hint: Learn what a Nandroid backup is, how to do one, and do it. I have a feeling you may find it very useful.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sithlyone:
I have made a nandroid backup using twrp. However there is a lot that I don't know about. I wish there was a dictionary somewhere that explained the meaning of a lot these terms.

I've taken a lot of steps so far.

Rooted my phone

Unlocked my bootloader with EZ-unlock

made a nandroid with TWRP (at least I think thats what its called, where I backup all the data on my phone)

Backed up my apps with TiBu

and probably a couple other things I am forgetting.

I'm taking this process slow and doing a ton of research, the problem is that most of it is over my head. So I'm sorry about the noobish quality of my posts and I thank you for your assistance. Any other suggestions that might put me on the right path?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jay Evans:
Slow down. Lean more before you start flashing things like LK. Spend time enjoying and exploring different ROMs like Bonestock and how they perform. Explore how to optimize your experience with what the ROM has to offer as developed. Keep the number of variables to a minimum until you gain experience troubleshooting and always have a plan on how to undo before you do. You'll save yourself from a number of panic attacks. ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sithlyone:
Ok, thanks, will do.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SilverFox66:
Came from CM10.1 to Bonestock and am loving it. Its my first TW ROM, and with the way its customizable, I may never go back to AOSP. I have only found 1 issue. I like to use voice for texting. When I installed the ROM, I chose the standard Samsung keyboard. It had no microphone on it, or in the settings popup. I installed Go Keyboard, and it had a microphone button, but when I pressed it, a message said it required Google Voice Search to function. Ok, so I downloaded Voice Search. Now when I hit the microphone button, it says S Voice has stopped working unexpectedly. So, it said it required Google Voice Search to work, but is trying to use S Voice? I reset the app permissions, but get the same message. I can open S Voice and send a text there (which I hate) but cant get voice to work in stock messaging. Any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] M_T_M:
Settings>language and input>check Google voice typing ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Try disabling S-Voice as default in app management. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sithlyone:
Hey guys quick question here.

I have read a lot about having to wipe the the phone before installing a rom. The video referenced in the OP obviously is showing how to install a previous version of this because he goes to the install button on TWRP and it gives the ability to wipe all data. However, the version I am installing V3.3 doesn't show that option of wiping data prior to installing Bonestock.

Is this just assumed that it will wipe it automatically when choosing to install? Or do I now have to choose the Wipe function separably?

Thanks for the help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RaptorMD:
Nice looking ROM, I am actually sending back my GS4 on Verizon and looking for a nice used GS3 on eBay or elsewhere to tied me over while I search out a new phone. Maybe the G2 or GN3 just not sure and hate wasting an upgrade. I will be looking to roll out your ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ufjay5:
Is it possible to have middle clock fix with bandit theme?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
I believe it breaks the theme. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SilverFox66:
Thanks guys.... here is the thing. Before I installed Google Voice Search, the only option under "Speech", was "Text to speech output".... so I had nothing esle to set, no other options to change. Installing voice gave me two more sets of options...."Voice Recognizer" and "Voice Search". I had to set google voice as the default and use the Go Voice keyboard, as it wont work with S Voice and there is still no mic option on the stock Samsung keyboard.

My question now is, on a TW ROM, why didnt the stock Samsung keyboard have a microphone on it, and why didnt it work with S Voice? Both are items from Samsung, for this phone. Having to install another keyboard, and google voice search to get this to work, seems kind of silly. Am I missing something here? I know Ive never had to do all this, to get voice to work in text before
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gherman222:
I have the mic on Samsung keyboard. Here's a screenshot of my settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
I can see the confusion here, was a huge PITA explaining to everyone on the GS4.

Aroma does NOT wipe anything for you (even though you are choosing "full wipe" in Aroma)

that is just the OPTION full wipe, (technically yes I could make Aroma wipe your phone but chose not too.) so,

you need to FULL wipe your phone in Aroma before the ROM if you're doing a full ROM install.

Hope this makes sense. :)

Thank you Sir.

Got an SG4 ROM out as well.

Not nearly as good as this one, and I miss the GS3 badly, I may be switching back soon, the SG4, just.. kinda sucks.. but shh don't tell anyone guys lol.

the keyboards are weird.

for Google keyboard I like the enter button rather than the mic..

well if you DON'T have Google voice installed there is no mic..

if you install Google voice, mic comes back.

trick I figured out though.

Download the Google KB, download Google voice. delete the KB, then delete Google voice, download the Google voice first, then the keyboard and some odd reason, I get my enter button and not the mic, I know this doesn't help but just thought I would share.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
This is why I'm hesitant to upgrade to a different phone. I love my gs3. I don't wanna make a huge mistake...

Enough with the updates Google!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobd2754:
If you download anything from CNET, carefully READ the install instructions as they tend to load you up with crapware.

Is there a build prop tweak or some other way to increase wifi speed? Been having upload problems over wifi.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlyle:
No issues here .. As we all know Speed is from your ISP.

Right where i should be. Dont think a build prob is gonna help there :confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikey4226:
I seem to be having an issue with the speech-to-text being spotty in swype and google search. Sometimes it will register and other times it'll stall and won't work. Is anyone else having this problem and/or know how to resolve it? Thanks in advance!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SilverFox66:
yeah, I just found all this out the hard way lol. I wound up with the Go Keyboard and google voice to handle things.

As you said... no mic till Voice was installed, then it appeared

Thanks

Blue center clock

I apologize if this was covered elsewhere but my searches of this thread brought up too many posts and I couldn't find anything specific .I have chosen white icons/toggles/etc. in aroma but when I choose the center clock it shows up blue. right and left clock are white. Is there a specific setting that I missed somewhere, or is this just how it is? Will the "center clock fix" also fix the color to the one chosen in aroma? I have everything else set up perfectly and don't want to mess it up...I can live without a center clock lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] helobubba88:
Yes, try the center clock fix.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Excessiveidling:
As of late... I've noticed my phone has been rebooting on its own for no apparent reason.... Can't think of any apps I've changed or anything recently... Any ideas what may cause this? Don't seem to see any set pattern or time frame on it either.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
That is usually from flashing a different kernel. If not I would wipe everything and reflash. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Excessiveidling:
Same default kernel so not that... And I figured as much with the wiping/starting from scratch again... Will have to do that on my next day off

---------- Post added at 08:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:13 PM ----------

What's weird though is that (to my knowledge) my phone was NOT rebooting until like the past week.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] static.chaos73:
Worked perfect, thanks!

One more question...is there any way to get the AOSP pulldown notification colors on the stock setting? I really like the blue/dark grey notifications, especially for a persistent notification like weather or something, rather than all black, but the only way I can find to change it is to choose AOSP instead of stock theme but that changes everything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zmedhaug:
I'm still on 3.1. Was there any changes except theming between the two?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Reading the OP doe wonders. :D

I literally list every little detail that I do in my change-log so there is no confusion. Yo9u won't ever see "and bunch other stuff I forgot"

cos I list it all, OCD if you will :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ericizzy1:
hey andy, great rom, thank you, just wondering if there is anything else you are cooking? ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Nope, this ROM is pretty much where I'd like it to be. And until I have a new base to play with there isn't much for me to do.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tomm1079:
just found this rom.

I just got off of Cleanrom 7 cause i was having text messages failing (never happened on cleanrom 6). Does this happen with this rom?

i ended up going back to rooted stock and would rather have something like this.

---------- Post added at 08:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:07 PM ----------

2nd question:

Im on firmware: VRBMB1 should i upgrade to VRBMF1?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
If Cleanrom 7 ran on MB1 this will. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SilverFox66:
well, it rocks brother. I like the fact you can have all the stock TW you want, yet customize all you want also. I have run AOSP for all my phones till this. Got tired of things being broken. I understand this isnt a perfect hobby, but it seemed the Devs were more concerned with getting the nest version out with more features, rather than fix the problems with the features they already had. Again, this rocks... keep up the good work :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pkd600:
Never used CleanROM 7, but I have no text message issues at all on BoneStock 3.3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Excessiveidling:
Just curious but...have been running bonestock 3.3 with aosp messaging and all that jazz just fine....however whats the difference really between all these touchwiz roms? Cleanrom 7, bonestock, jellybeans seem to be the most popular (of the recently updated ones..synergy hasn't been updated so not mentioned). I know the whole...try it out and see which one you like better but is the main difference really just themeing? Just curious as I've always wondered this since I'm not really too picky on how the phone looks...but moreso on performance and/or ease of use. I'm currently trying out jellybeans latest and the only significant differnce I can see is the themeing. Now touchwiz vs aosp I know theres a significant difference themeing and overall everything...but touchwiz vs touchwiz rom....any ideas?

by the way: I did not mean to insult any other developer nor state that one rom is better than the other...just looking for actual facts of any differences aside from themeing between said touchwiz roms.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jacquestrapp:
The differences are pretty minor between Touchwiz ROMs as opposed to the differences between TW and AOSP but each of those three has its own advantages. To my mind, CleanROM is for people who want an experience close to stock (meaning, 100% stable with no surprises) but without the bloat. It also seems to be the most popular ROM and it is unthemed by default, so it has the most add-on themes available. Jellybeans offers the most customization options and is heavily themed but at the cost of a little bloat and a little speed and stability. BoneStock to me represents a midway point, it's just as reliable as CleanROM (in my experience) but adds enough customization options to keep a minimalist like myself happy.

Another major difference is the presence of Call Recording functionality, CleanROM doesn't have it and BoneStock does. I sometimes interview people on the phone and being able to record conversations (with the other party's consent of course) can be invaluable.
