Will the aosp theme need to be updated or will the current one be OK
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BlaJod:
Weird, I've used the link in the OP (clicked, it opened up page, no countdown and then closed and reopened about 6 times), and the link you posted did the same thing. I'm sure its just a glitch or something that will eventually fix itself.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
It will need updating..

limited though, so it won't take long.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] royta:
That will be so cool. The ability to try out different colors, batteries, widgets, etc. without having to reflash the rom.

On another note, have you given any thought to creating a zip file containing a choice of boot screen animations that can be flashed in recovery? Scott has one for CleanROM, and I must say they are much more pleasing to the eye than the stock Nexus "X". Just a thought.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ANDROID 3G:
Thanks for adding all these different colors. This in combination with the new aroma will be the best thing ever to hit my S3.

P.S. My friend wishes you made a BoneStock for T-Mobile GS3. She gets all jealous when she looks at my phone, lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Cool ;) thanks for the work
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
no. I haven't.

I am building a ROM, not a MOD for all.

just because it isn't offered in Aroma, doesn't mean you can't change things..

I offer that boot ani, and have it set up so literally all you do is change the bootani.zip.

once I make a page and offer one boot ani, then everyone is going to want to add one.

hope this doesn't come off pricky, not meaning too
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
haha thanks man!

It's def hard building blind, but I could consider a t-mobile port of bonestock :)

I won't ever make this ROM multi-carrier, but I would consider a port.

multi carrier just too much work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
ok guys, I think it'll be pretty self explanitory, but for Aroma when flashing the ROM again to change stuff in Aroma,

1) this can only be done with stock, once you flash AOSP theme, you would need to re-flsah the AOSP theme, not the ROM.zip

2) when you want to change something, say rotation, on all the pages that needed it, I added a "no change" option, so for the pages you don't want to change anything.. pick no change, and on the pages that don't have the no change option, it is for ones like the verizon apps, just make sure they are all UN checked. it's pretty easy, you guys will see, it's very nice!

thank prdog!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
uploading v3.1 ROM

then uploading

v3.1 AOSP theme,

both are done and ready to go.

middle clock add-on's aren't done, but will be soon.

(I have to re-build the dang thing over 8 times now cos of the colors..)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
HaHaa. Sounds like you doing more themeing than deving. :laugh::cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
haha it's a pretty even split.

you did Aroma.

and the rest is theme/call recording options.

definitely worth the download though.

this opens up the ROM to be way more options without having to kill yourself erasing data. Seriously can't thank you enough for getting this done for me. you and newcultking.

This is really how Aroma should be, yea it's great for debloating, but now, look at all the amazing things that were built off that one function.

Now everyone can freely check out any battery, animation, or MOD that was already there, but never really had a chance to check out.

I also added "no change" option to AOSP theme pages so that can be freely re-flashed as well. :) :cool::cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Yea. had to do my theme that way also. Too many add on options. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
yea man can wait for your theme!

AFH seems to be uploading pretty fast today.

already @ 20% :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
HaHaa. Thought I had it. But still having problems with VR and the files. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] phoenixaldana01:
im sorry been keeping up but 3.1 i can dirty flash over 3.0 is that rite or wrong anyways just wanna say thanks for this rom runs good on my phone no problems :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
I guess the servers are not as heavily hit today .. Last time I tried to upload a ROM it took 4 hours lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Yessir, you will be able to pick the option to edit existing ROM, it wipes automatically for you what is needed. This update is basically just adding some theme options, call recording options (Auto, or just having the option in the menu, or stock removed.) and the new option to choose either full wipe or edit the existing ROM. Which will be great for everyone, as you can now go ahead and change JUST you battery, or whatever you want! Free reign! :cool::cool:

haha yea man AFH really does vary, I guess the mixtuer of Fourth of July weekend and being Friday is a great advantage for us to upload and download today! :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Yeah.. Andy for the win ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cr4ck3r4lif3:
I'm using the mms from slim but the reply option from the notification dropdown does not work. I haven't found one that does.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
It works in this rom! I use it everyday. Check it out. Or just wait till 3.1 :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
83% uploaded. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
woohoo...gf is off at 330, will be home at 4. Hopefully I can get it flashed before she's home so I don't have to hear her crap about "restarting" my phone. That's how she puts it haha

Though she has a sgs3 sitting in my house that got shipped today(verizon swapping her droid razr m out for it due to issues). Maybe she'll let me root it and install bonestock so she can see why I "restart" my phone often.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wolfballz:
Andy, prdog1, and newcultking you guys rock. Donation coming to you all on the 11th (get paid then). Keep up the good work guys and you are much appreciated.

v3.1 is hot!

v3.1 AOSP Theme uploading.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] royta:
Will we need to do the full install the first time with 3.1 before we can start using the modify only features of aroma?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Shouldn't. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] royta:
Awesome. So I could add new features or make changes to my 3.0 install with the 3.1 zip file, it would make those changes, and it would show BoneStockROM v3.1 in Settings --> About Phone?

And perform just as well as a brand new wipe data install (obviously from a very recent and great running v3.0 full wipe install)?

Awesome!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] LaserEyeballs:
I tried dl'ing 3.0 last night and the file was less than .2k and the same thing happened when I tried dl'ing 3.1. Any ideas? I'm dl'ing from my phone
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
ONLY if coming from

1) another ROM

2) any other version of this ROM besides 3.0

------------------

make sure to do a FULL wipe before installing and picking Full Wipe in the ROM install, Aroma will not wipe the phone for you! (not any of this directed towards you, royta -- this if for all:) )

If you are already on v3.0 then just download, install and choose MOD only, edit existing ROM, and pick "No Change" on the pages you don't want to change anything on, and for the pages you can un-check everything, make suer everything is unchecked that you do NOT want.

Pretty easy once you guys see.

Oh and make sure not to mess with the "No Change" option when doing a Full Wipe, that is only for MOD Only :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Won't get the 3.1 in about phone. Have to do full install for that one. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DROID3R:
Removed sound mod:confused:?? I dont want to lose the extra volume. Stock volume sucks. I love the 100 % sound mod

iSheep... iSheep... Meowww that's Apple VZW GSIII
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
yea, don't download from your phone. :)

or I think try chrome if you have to use your phone.

Prdog will chime in.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
can't wait to get this fired up! thanks andy for posting instructions. Was about to type the question asking what you provided. thanks :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
yes, I read it doesn't play nice with call recording, so I chose to dump it. You can find flashable.zips.

Just cos not in Aroma, doesn't mean you can't use it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Yea. Most dependable browsers for phone download are Firefox, Opera Mobile and Chrome. Personally I never use phone. Never even check MD5 on PC. lol :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
the build.prop only gets installed on a full wipe, and you are not missing anything. v3.1 was ONLY to allow for option to now go and edit existing ROM without changing anything. ONLY thing I added was a call record option. and removed the volume boost.

Nothing dev wise.

also I can upload one that says v3.1 if you want. or just edit it from your phone use root browser, root explorer etc.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
nothing a build prop edit can't fix right? ;) or maybe I'm wrong lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] royta:
I guess I could do a Titanium backup, do the wipe & install, and a Titanium restore. Hmm, I wonder if I could include 100% of the system files too, not just the call log, SMS/MMS messages, wifi ap's, accounts, etc.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
TBH, if you're on a PC you don't need to check the MD5.

If the ROM.zip opens with zip file program, then it's downloaded and good.

If you doesn't open, the download failed. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
You're right.

Simple edit. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] LaserEyeballs:
Coming through on chrome. Thanks pimp
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jackdubl:
So what exactly is changed on the AOSP theme? Did you decide which system ui you were gonna use in it, the old one or the 4.2.2 one? And what phone apk is in it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
just updated to match the new stuff in v3.1, and I did go with 4.2.2 clear/settings buttons look.

Aroma, also has "No Change" option to re-flash the AOSP theme at anytime.

Also updated Aroma binary in for this as well, flies, no more freezing
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] terpsarlington:
MOD or Fullwipe

What does MOD or full wipe mean?

I am currently on 3.0

thanks in advance
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Quite self explanatory. I also already posted this a few posts back. but anyway,

If you are on v3.0, and want to change something, you choose MOD only.

and you then change only what you want, by choosing "No change" on those pages that have the option, and the pages where you can un-chcek everything, make sure everything is unchecked you don't want..

very easy.

if you are coming from a different ROM, you do a full wipe in recovery, then choose full wipe install :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
v3.1 AOSP theme link is hot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jackdubl:
Is the settings fix in the 3.1 theme or do we still do that separately?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Good deal man!

I understand everything you've said, but for the pages in aroma that don't have the no change option. Such as the pages where we select any apps we want. If I go back in to change just the battery, do I need to select those apps again? Or can I leave them unchecked? I wouldn't think they'd be deleted if I leave them unchecked AND have had them installed already from previous 3.0. Thanks again for this.

BTW, new aroma is extremely fast.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nsaechao:
Just tried the link... Not working correctly said download complete bonestock v3.1.htm?

maybe its my phone.. Will try later when i get home... Thanks Andy

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Download from chrome, Firefox on phone. Don't use stock browser.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
as I've posted a few times now, on the pages without "No Change" just uncheck everything you don't want. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
I've flashed the aosp theme now over 6 times. I can't decide on a theme! Lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Someone requested the Browser/E-mail Edge Zoom MOD.

I decided to give it a go and followed the way loserskater did it in his ROM, and made it into a toggle into settings > display.

Problem is, I have no idea what the MOD does, and how to test if it works. :)

I did test it to make sure it goes into the settings, and able to toggle it, I just need someone who knows what this is and would be able to test to see if the toggle works. Play around with it, it may require a reboot, it may not.

both versions are available:

1) Stock ROM - http://d-h.st/RXH

2) AOSP theme - http://d-h.st/3jc
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bigee1212:
Hey, did a fresh/full install and initially picked the transparent weather widget. Went to reboot and just did the mods and picked the SG4 weather widget since I didnt like the look of the transparent.

TW home crashes, saw two weather widgets installed from Titanium backup, removed the transparent one, but now cant add a city ... crashes...

just FYI that you can't just replace one of the options for the weather widget as the old one stays.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
ah shoot sorry bro, yea I totally forgot to warn you guys..

(this is why it's not an option in the AOSP theme)

I think the only way to get it work correctly is to delete the .apks beforehand, then go an re-flash and pick the one you want, I can't remember if that worked or not, but that's pretty much the only one you have to stick with.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bigee1212:
I deleted the weather widget via titanium backup and the SG4 weather widget now is displayed clean on my TW launcher, but if i "Tap to add city" TW Home crashes. Any idea if I'm missing something here?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Yea. I haven't looked but unless the AOSP one is named Accuweather it won't work. May could rename that widget to Accuweather so that it will overwrite. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
nope, it's just something that can't be changed..

gunna have to restore a nandroid of v3.0 which I do hope you have,.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bigee1212:
not a huge deal since i just flashed, didnt restore anything really yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
No. They are all named correctly, all the same, but they just won't override. It was an issue I came across awhile back, just forgot about it. Just make sure to do no change on accuweather widget guys. It's the only thing that can't be changed.

Please, if you know what to look for please test it. I am uploading stock files to get back to stock now. At most it will take 10 minutes out of your day. (re-building SecSettings takes about 5 minutes per re-build on top of editing, and I had to re-build 4 times, twice for each theme. All I ask is you test :)

New aroma 3.1

Andy, just a heads up: No big deal, but when you check the box in aroma for mods only, it flashes the stock kernel so if you have a custom kernel, you will need to reflash when your done.

Thanks for this great work; very easy to use and change as often as you want (need).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
ahh shoot, I may have to add a page to choose to pick the stock kernel, or no change to alleviate this, thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlokos:
No worries; it isn't a big deal; I would just wait until 3.2. I would test the Browser/E-mail Edge Zoom MOD, but I have no idea what it does.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
edge zoom may cause may issues with that toggle.

I may have to try and find just the mod.

but what did u pick in mod only?

it shouldn't flash kernel, but I'm testing now, gunna flash a custom kernel, then change just battery and see if it flashes me back to stock kernel.

maybe something you chose is doing it. it will greatly help to know what you choose, thank you!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Felosis:
In case folks are wondering... I'm using LeanKernal 3.0 on BoneStock 3.1 and it works perfect, same as BoneStock 3.0! Thanks again Andy for all your hard work on BoneStock, your work is definitely appreciated! :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Hey Jason!,

Glad to see you finally able to post in the thread finally, lame ass XDA posts rules. I understand for a new member, but you've been on here for over 3 years, lol :laugh:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlokos:
My recollection is that i chose a battery icon and a keyboard. I'm pretty sure that was all. The rest I either checked no change or unchecked all the choices.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Felosis:
Aye man, no worries, it is what it is! I'm here now, and staying! :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Prdog is working with me on the Aroma fix for kernel.

I will not re-upload the ROM as it's just one file.

Instead you will need to go into the ROM.zip

and into the META-INF\com\google\android\and replace the updater-script with the new one.

I am testing now.

If working on MOD install. I will make sure Full install works then upload the updater-script
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Byonik:
I flashed my usual hack - RemoveExhangeSecurity.zip - but when I booted, email kept crashing. I did a fix permissions in TWRP, but it was still crashing. Then I restored my backup Email 4.0 and Exchange Service 4.1 via TiBu, then wiped data for both, and after a reboot, it worked!

Not sure where I picked up that particular hack - I've had it forever - but the zip is 17.41MB if that helps track it down.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Thanks for the quick find on that!

New updater-script is finished thanks to prdog1 again, since it's just this one file I added it to add-on's, instead of make you guys re-download a 1GB ROM for a 50KB file. :D

You must be able to know how to re-place the file in the ROM.zip.

Instructions are given with the link in post #3

v3.1 updater-script - fixes the problem with replacing custom kernel with stock kernel when doing an existing ROM edit - http://d-h.st/dj5

***Once you download the updater-script you must know how to re-place this file in the ROM.zip correctly, using a file program preferably on your computer. If it works from the phone that's also great but I haven't any experience with that.

1) download the updater-script

2) open the v3.1 ROM.zip

3) navigate to META-INF\com\google\android\

4) you will see the existing updater-script

5) re-place the existing updater-script in the v3.1 ROM.zip with the one you just downloaded
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] LaserEyeballs:
Flashed lK 3.0 stable and the Rom definitely got snappier. There was just a little hesitation before. I don't know if there's a difference between the 3.0 experiment that comes w/ the Rom versus stable but, I definitely see a difference. Lastly, this Rom is dope.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Not exactly sure what you mean, but this ROM offers and SUPPORTS ONLY stock kernel.

A custom kernel such a leak kernel is obviously going to give you performance gain, and I highly suggest using them, I just can't support what I don't make. So, if a problem arises, stock kernel must be installed with this issue and a full wipe to confirm, before I can be sure it is a bug.

Glad you are enjoying the ROM, though :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cynikalJ:
Gotta give it to you andy. This rom is the smoothest I have used yet. LOVE the new aroma. Pretty much a FLAWLESS VICTORY! lol but seriously, I know alot of people are waiting on scrosler to release a new cleanrom, but with no disrespect he really doesn't need to. Your rom is the most stable and USEFUL feature complete rom there is now. Thanks again!

What is quick reply. Is this capable on tw messaging? I didn't see anything in my notification pulldown that allows me to do that
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Thank you so much man!

really means a lot!

I know Scott is great at keeping up with all his devices, but he has a lot on his plate, I just have this SG3 and am content.

Would I take GS4 if donated to Dev, hell yea lol, but I am so very content with this phone, and all you great users!

It's a great feeling when can do a release and it's bug-free.

and with the new Aroma, everyone can now do their own testings, and I don't have to make anymore personalized .zips!!!

This is an AOSP messaging feature..

one that many people just love to have. :)

is it really that useful? IMHO, no.

is it cool, yea.

Would I use it just for that feature, no. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlokos:
Worked like a charm. All is good. Very nice aroma selections. Now try to relax over the weekend!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cynikalJ:
I used to want to trade phones all the time but truly the s3 is a great phone. I am content with the phone and now finally content with a Rom. Used to be a crack flasher but I am now a recovering abuser lol.

Agreed... I've used Scott's ROMs since the beginning of the GS3, but once Andy released his ROM, I've been on it ever since. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
I love this feature. You never have to leave the app your using to reply to a text. Pretty awesome IMO. Plus you can use emoji with aosp MMS. I guess if you didn't text a lot it wouldn't matter much. I text a lot so its pretty useful.

I think the best way to install is to mount the /system directory as writeable, delete the old adfree.apk file from /system/apps/, copy the new adfree.apk file to the same directory, unmount the /system directory as writeable, then reboot the phone.

At first, I tried just installing the adfree.apk and I ended up with two apps installed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] CeeMillz:
Go on the new Google talk and check out the updated emojis, they're just redrawn emojis.

I'll look for the apk now gimme a sec.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
I never implied you were asking for an ETA, just pointing out I never said it would be released tmw. But I completely agree I would wait for v1.3 it def could be out tmw but like I said just don't like to make a promise for releases.

I very much apreciate the offer for the mirror.
