You sirs, are all scholars and gentlemen. Thank you. Will get on it once I'm home. Any reasoning why the would suddenly need to be done? I changed nothing.... Updated to 4.4.240 day it was out... No issues till today.... Clean flashed again, same thing... and it's isolated?

Horrible battery drain! Any suggestions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TotallyAnxious:
Check your battery details on your phone. I had a bad battery drain (it looked like it was play services doing most of the drain) I was still figuring out but when I updated my kernel it was gone. What kernel are you using?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JoeyDuran:
Whatever came with the rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TotallyAnxious:
DKP fixed my problem. You might want to try that since you are still on the stock one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JoeyDuran:
You have a link to it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RayMcGrath:
I use KT kernel with this rom for the best battery performance. It's set on ktoonservative.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1853816

on a side note: a very reliable contributor said never to flash a custom kernel over another custom kernel. Only flash a custom kernel over the stock rom kernel. Honestly i dont understand why but this advice has worked for me. Good luck!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Shallow_1:
Hey Jenny what is DKP?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TotallyAnxious:
It's a kernel. BMS, DKP, and KT are the three big kernels for the d2vzw (our phone). DKP actually just got updated a few minutes ago.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Shallow_1:
You get good battery life with your settings? And what are they?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Goose306:
I would also count in LK, there are many, many people who use LK, I would say likely more than several of whom you listed. Extremely good lightweight kernel if you don't need the frills.

As far as not flashing custom kernels over each other its actually perfectly fine as long as you know what you're doing. Some kernels will also flash various scripts which is why some recommend reflashing stock first, but as long as you know the affects and which kernels to watch out for its fine.

You're probably right, I didn't realize LK had been updated. Ever since I moved to beanstalk I haven't really been searching through other threads, since this rom is so great lol. My mistake.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Goose306:
Haha no worries. I flip ROMs regularly but have been a big fan of LK for ages. It exists more heavily on Rootz, but development over there besides LK and AOKP has gotten a lot quieter so people tend to forget about it. Imo is still quietly releasing solid kernels tho. Run them on my GNex, S3, and Nexus 7 :)

Verizon VVM solution?

Would one of you fine Beanstalk brethren mind taking a couple of minutes to help me?

I want to stick with VZW for VVM...but I am having ZERO luck with the builds I have found. I read the solution entails dropping the apk in the priv folder and setting permissions, but all I get is a FC.

This was one reason I left CM11 builds...but sooo glad it lead me to this ROM!

I am using Sammy G3 on VZW running Beanstalk 4.4.240.

Sorry...can't seem to edit outdated Sig info via mobile.

Many thanks,

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] yoderz:
First off, a huge thanks to the devs for this ROM. I was hesitant to jump up to 4.4, but I don't know why I didn't do it sooner. This thing is phenomenal.

The only issue I seem to be having is signal strength. I'm not sure if it's ROM related or not because I installed the ML1 modern prior to installing the ROM. I'm now losing signal at work where I normally had service. Anyone else in the same boat?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sammymcalaxy:
From everything that I've read, 4.4.x does indeed seem to show less signal strength in terms of bars in places which once yielded more. That is due to a more 'true' reading of signal; instead of VZW hamming it up and juking the stats as they are notoriously known for, the painful truth is revealed in the KitKat scripts. If you are actually getting dropped calls, and it is not in fact a superficial mindfack, than you might need to.......

......have someone smarter than myself help you out!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] yoderz:
Haha. There have been a few occasions that texts have not gone through and I haven't been able to connect to the internet. All while on Verizon network.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sammymcalaxy:
I've actually dealt with that recently too. I love this ROM, and I'm very grateful as well as forgiving, so I've just ignored what I could... The not being able to text pictures that has given me a headache. Might be signal related as well.... Had more than a few dropped calls recently and I have told myself that was snow related.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TotallyAnxious:
What app are you using? I use Textra only have problems with texts and stuff by my house (where I have low signal) but at college I have full bars and never have problems with mms or sms (besides the occasional double send of a long text).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sammymcalaxy:
I use the stock one, like I said a few days ago, I can't stand having a 3rd party app for something already baked in (there are a few exceptions, the hypocrite digresses). I did try Evolve at the recommendation of tenderloinshadow, and I was surprised at how much I did not hate it... but it was just to see if trying another .apk would allow me to send pictures. It did not. I have no clue why I'm having this issue. It's not a deal breaker by any means, I don't send pictures often, and for now I can just email them, it's just a pain in the ass.

Additionally, while I'm thinking about it, does anyone know of/use any kind of script to: received mms/turn on data/download picture,video,whatever/turn off data ----and/or------turn on data just to send mms and immediately turn it off again? (why's this nitwit always wasting space, asking texting questions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TotallyAnxious:
Textra has that, but I don't know of any individual scripts that do that. I'm sure Tasker could something like that or one of those task apps could do that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Deliberate:

dear god, I'm having some bad juju... I'm hoping it was a bad download, but I've been trying to flash this daggum update since 5 minutes after it was posted... loads sssooo slow into the "Select your wifi" screen, and from there it just reboots everytime. tried a bunch of junk, downloading it again...and if this doesn't flash, im going back to Honeycomb.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TotallyAnxious:
I can't get the rom to go past the second step when starting (the screen that says "Welcome. Just a second") It freezes then reboots.. It also doesn't have any signal. My restores still have signal so I have a feeling the phone isn't switching to the right mode for signal. I've downloaded it twice so I don't think it's a bad download.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sammymcalaxy:
THANK YOU! I've tried everything I know, and learned some things I didn't just to try....it won't flash. Downloaded 3 times, wiped everything in all kinds of different orders. Even TWRPed. jesus. Glad its not just my phone. What'ja'do OP?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sammymcalaxy:
Yes sir, I, tried it immediately, got it to work, and then it went kaaputt; really want to get to the root of why it wouldn't work in the first place. I leave my data off 90% of the day, and that was another issue I wanted to tackle- getting my data to briefly enable to send/receive and immediately disable after the process completes. I've done it with tasker, but my theme-o'-the-month has been trying to use as few 'single purpose' apps as possible. (Tasker definitely does not fall into that category, it's glorious, just can do a number on battery)

I'm assuming nobody has learned about what happened with 4.4.247 last night? I haven't seen any other devices have this issue we had; I surmise that it didn't come from upstream..

I was lurking today looking to see if Slim was updated yet and lo and behold, Here's BeanStalk! Yay! Looks like Ray got it going. People really should flash clean unless the changes are very minimal. But that's just my two cents.. Having said that.

Has anyone who has wiped cache and data had any issues? Just wondering.. I was a diehard slim user for 4.2-4.3, but I've ran beanstalk most of the time on 4.4. I really like the feature set of Beanstalk. But I also really like the slim size of slim. Soo "what to do what to do"??

Thanks to the devs and op for putting this out for the sgs3! Appreciate all the work that goes into this stuff.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sammymcalaxy:
There's your problem, you need to use a GAPPS from 11/26(maybe 29?) or new, and it needs to be a 4.4.XX GAPPS....

Get the newest 0-Day GAPP http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2397942 .... read through that carefully and choose what's best for you.

Try flashing this is wipe before flashing the ROM.

Sounds like you need to update your recovery. Install the latest CWM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] smiley4017:
There is definatly something wrong with the last build. Dirty flash reboots when I touch anything. Complete wipe reboots after I pick English on the setup.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jaguarpaw:
yes to avoid anymore frustration from users... THE LATEST 4.4.247 build IS BROKEN. DO NOT FLASH IT. the previous built works great THAT is the only one to use. DO NOT FLASH THE LATEST VERSION. .

Fingers crossed that the OP will update/fix the problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] griz.droidx:
Yep Yep, thanks for the tips guys.. I went ahead and flashed anyway, without checking back here first. I wiped data/cache/system. Flashed the Beanstalk from the 247 link in the OP, used PA micro gapps from the middle of this month (approximately, forgot the date), rebooted. ROM booted fine to the setup screen. Did the four corner trick, and couldn't get farther than the option window to select and start the home launcher. This is where it failed for me. No matter which launcher I selected, it would kick me out to the lockscreen where I would unlock and go through the same process starting with the home / launcher picker. Repeat.

Anyway, just thought I'd throw this out there and as others said the 240 build is fine.

I'm on build 4.4.225-20140123 and really the only problem I am having is that if I am copying files from computer to phone via usb the phone will crash at some point.

Anyone elses GPS really spotty on this? I have to use "High Accuracy" in order for it to work, meaning WiFi, Mobile Network, and GPS. Whenever I try and just use GPS it does not work. Location is set to on btw.

Also, does anyone ever have a problem where their phone reboots, but then gets stuck at the Galaxy S3 Loading Screen and only a cache wipe fixes this? But other then that I love this rom so much, thank you for your hard work!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sammymcalaxy:
GPS: yes, I have tried to figure this out, sadly, to no avail. Definitely is a pain battery wise, but I've accepted this and set up tasker profiles to turn it (meaning the high accuracy) on when I need it and if when I don't.

As for your boot issues, what version of beanstalk are you using? I'm assuming if you're getting it to work after clearing the cache, that it is not the newest one, correct? (It's missing something and has yet to be fixed )
