GSM signal bars

Firstly thanks for the nice work. This is the first non-tw rom that functions properly in my device.

I am using an international SIM Card, in Europe. The signal bars show up inactive, I feel no problems in receptions, but I see grey (inactive signal bars) and I am not able to see the level of reception (the colored bars).

Second thing, sometimes, when I end a call, it pops a message saying "call lost".

Are these due to my international SIM card?

Thanks in advance
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JRJ442:
Could be. Think I saw someone in the PAC thread with something similar and a different SIM

Well, downloading the newest update (from the updater that says compiled on 10/17) seems to have fixed my problem. I wiped system, cache, dalvik, and reinstalled downloaded version and now everything works perfectly. Weird, but my mms messages go through on my network extender (roaming) now, so I'm happy :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Azuma73:
Hey fellas, could someone please link me to 10/17 build pour fAvor!?!?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TotallyAnxious:
Download the build from the in rom updater. It says 10/13 on the updater but it is the 10/17 build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Azuma73:
A'ight...I'll give it a go!!

Thanx...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ryezen:
For some reason, after I've been running for a few days, when I hit the home key from within an app, it automatically brings up the "recents" list instead of going to the desktop. I've tried it many times, making sure that I'm not holding down the home key AT ALL, and it still does it. It then takes another push of the home button to leave the recents list and go to the actual desktop. Anyone else having this issue?

I'm on the 10/17 build, FWIW.

Same here. I had this problem with other aosp Roms if I reboot is gone for a while. Not sure why it happens though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Same here. Mine froze on sunday 4 times alone. A few times it's rebooted on its own and the other have just completely froze up. I'm confused as to why it's doing this. Does anyone know why it's happening or have a solution?

This has been running good for me with the stock kernel unless I edit text from this overlay. This happens to me on many different ROMs. Am I missing a setting somewhere? How do I turn this off or make it work?

I'm not getting any freezes, just a few reboots mainly from the lockscreen when the pages move randomly.

Yea I'd rather have it reboot than just completely freeze. It did it sunday morning twice in an hour. I was seriously ready to switch roms but so far I've stuck it out

In 4.2.2 I had no troubles in sending SMS, but in this one I do. I liked the work and I wish I could use this rom as my DD. Isn't there any workaround to solve the sms sending issue?

Any help would be appreciated...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JRJ442:
Are all of your mobile network settings correct? I haven't had any problems with SMS or MMS messages.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dergome:
Yes they are. I have no problems with network reception, i have H+ (3.5G) active and functional (except signal bars active level missing), I receive text messages but cannot send.

This happens with all 4.3.1 Roms that are in the threads, CarbonRom, OSE Rom, etc. All of them are causing the same problems I mentioned above.

How do I get theme chooser to work? When I download a theme from the play store (betterbean) it doesn't appear in the app (under ROM Control in settings).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bostonsean:
Update

After running this ROM for over a week. The only problems I ran into were Snapchat FC > Phone reboot. I'm pretty sure this is 100% APP related. Also when you select "Change to 2G when screen is off" It changes the selected network coverage to the wrong type. Easy fix. Go into settings and change it back.

So after seeing the stability I decided to flash a different kernel to possibly increase battery life. I went ahead and READ EVERY SINGLE POST here about a possible custom kernel. I went with the 10.16 v. of BMS. I have been running it for 2 days now and again haven't had a single issue. I must say that as of now it seems like the battery life is significantly greater/longer. Same heavy usage across the board.

The D.I.R.T. team keeps making our device so damn DIRTY! Thanks for the hard work guys!

Go under setting>rom control>theme chooser

So far this is running great. Thanks for making this available!

One question / request... I usually flash the Google Edition S4 camera (has working Photosphere) but the front-facing camera typically doesn't work. I know front-facing does work with the camera that comes with this rom, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't in the GE S4 camera. Anyone know of a 100% working camera (including front-facing) with photosphere?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thedawn2009:
Known issue with the S3 at least, looking into this.

Not implemented yet but if you have a rom that has that feature, please link it here and we'll consider it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MrBrady:
Just noticed something while using the 10/15 build in a dark room. As soon as the device boots, one of the front sensors turns on (with the dim red light), and never turns off. I'm guessing that isn't necessary and probably drains the battery a bit.

VZW SGSIII
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JRJ442:
I think that's because of Active Display using the proximity sensor. That's what the dim red light is. Try turning Pocket Mode off, the red light should go off then. Unless you can't live without it.

Hi, great rom!!!

Fast responsive I really like it.

Only issue is that now seems like my phone lost root ..

---------- Post added at 08:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:43 AM ----------

Sorry I'm stupid.

Root is here everything is working great.

I do have a question ...I'm using boa merchant credit card reader and it wont let me use it since the phone is rooted. On 4.2 I used voodoo root keeper and it worked great. But it wont work on 4.3.

Any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hexcorev2:
Gonna give it a try. I'll report back with feedback.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mbiterman:
Your feedback will be that's its the best rom out there.

Its just perfect. Battery is great so far, its very fast. Lots of options.

I have nothing to add its that good!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] flyestAC:

Has anybody gotten the new KT kernel working on this? I tried flashing the 10/27 build and it will boot but the screen goes nuts and acts like its zoomed in and the colors are all messed up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JRJ442:
[MENTION=4821753]Matt1024[/MENTION] if you're gonna use a custom kernel you need one built before 10/19. There was new video drivers merged around then so the ROM needs to support that. This one was built on 10/17 so it doesn't have the new driver support, the next version probably will.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bostonsean:
Font change?

Was changing the font ever addressed? I searched and might have missed it.

I know you want to run the new KT Kernel but with the video issues I figured I would throw this out there for you as an alternative. I'm running the 10.16 ver. of BMS. Zero issues. Slightly better battery life. Was talked about near the middle of this thread.

A couple days ago I tried BMS & lean kernel. After wake up the phone screen was not normal and then went to LK. LK didn't load at all so I wiped the caches and re-loaded the rom with the stock kernel. All's good for now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JRJ442:
Sounds like the new driver thing caused that. Since our ROM was built before 10/19 it doesn't have the new video drivers. So you need a kernel built before that. The 10/16 BMS build I'm on has been awesome with no issues like that at all.

---------- Post added at 12:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:12 AM ----------

There's a setting that let's you select the 4G option. Maybe try enabling it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ryezen:
There are actually tons of reason people choose AOSP over standard ROMs:

- The true "Google" experience (the way Google "intended" Android to look/function)

- No bloat to remove (usually means better/snappier performance)

- Using the latest Operating System WAY before it's released to VZW through a standard update

- Enabling features that our phones are capable of that Samsung -might- not choose to include because they want you to buy their latest model

- Depending on the AOSP ROM, there may be a lot of new, trendy features incorporated from other AOSP ROMs

And finally, don't let the signal strength of TouchWiz over AOSP fool you completely: Verizon has had a history of "boosting" the signal indicator in their official ROM versions for phones. To my knowledge, AOSP-based ROMs don't do this, so technically, an AOSP ROM will almost always report a worse signal than a TW ROM, but it's actually just reporting the "true" signal strength.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SomeGuyDude:
In regards to the signal, it's not about what's being reported, it's about literally having a connection. On TW in an area you might have full 4g but the AOSP has no connection at all.

So been running this for about a week and am liking it a lot only a few hickups here and there but nothing persistent or able to duplicate .except one thing .I have the notification bar at the top of the screen 100% transparent and when leaving apps or going into them the notification bar will flash the home screen wall paper.not major but annoying at times. But that is really it .

I would like to make a request ,a way to turn the back and menu button lights off lol

Thanks for the rom

If you're running the 10/17 build that option should already be there. ROM Control > Device Specific > Sensors > Uncheck enable keys backlight

Yeah. Lol. Lots of people did. Go to your DU updater. Its gonna say you're on the current version, but download and flash anyway. I promise you its the 10/17 version. Make sure you delete or move the current ROM zip on your SD because it may download with the same date. There's new soft key options (hardware key rebinding) and Device specific options in that build.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] incubus26jc:
Yep. you can just install the apks if you want. Although it will give you 2 versions of some of the apps in your app drawer.

Do not install google search apks unless you know what your doing. There is a lib that needs to go into system/lib manually. you will need to make your /system R/W.

If you do know what your doing then unzip the attached lib and place it in /system/lib overwriting the older version after you install the new apks..

You also might be able to delete the old versions of the apps in /system/app while you R/W

If you just want the launcher just install the googlehome.apk. etc...

That line in the build prop doesn't really matter. It doesn't effect data connection or anything. Its just used for identification purposes like playstore and stuff I think. I'm using MF1 currently. I'd say the issues you're having probably has more to do with the new RIL stuff and not actually having a SIM. Maybe they haven't taken into account people use the device like that. I'm not sure.
