Any reboots on BMS? I've only had two so far on packaged kernel, both when I clicked power button to "wake up" the phone. Phone just instantly rebooted both times without any prompts.

Only other issues I've had involve keyboard freezing when making corrections sometimes (may be a SwiftKey issue vs. a ROM issue), Bluetooth music occasionally skipping for no reason or losing sync (seldom), Play Store sometimes freezes (a reboot fixes it), and speakerphone volume is low.

Great ROM!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JRJ442:
Like once in a blue moon. Both times its happened I've been scrolling through Facebook and Twitter. Its been stable other than those 2 times.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
I've had it flashed for 3 days and not a single reboot with BMS.

But...I keep the device clocked to 1.512 and use asswax for a gov with fifo as the I/O; I'm not overclocking the thing because I don't have a need to do so. If I had reboots off my configuration, I'd definitely dump the kernel and use BionicSheep; BMS is undervolted, but either works like buttah with this rom.

I see persistent LCD Density in options...but where can I change LCD Density, or is this not built in? If not, what is recommended?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JRJ442:
We haven't got the update with Hybrid settings unfortunately. I just set my DPI in the build prop, I also installed the Xposed framework, and App Settings so I could change the DPI for individual apps if I wanted to.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] newbie4ever:
I don't think we're getting the update... Next build will probably be 4.4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Nsx93:
Having signal trouble after flashing. No bar. Had 2 bars before flashing. Also Google store wouldn't download any app. Kept getting server error msg. Full wiped 2x before flashing. Wipe again after flashing. Wiped once more after flashing gapps. Twrp as recovery. What can I try next?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
Go to system settings> 'more' under Wireless and networks>mobile networks.

Uncheck 'Data Enabled' and recheck it. See if that restores your data... I have mine lock 'off' all the time and that fixes it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JRJ442:
Lol. Looking that way isn't it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] necroscopev:
I had to remove bionic sheep, not sure what it was, but with that Kernel everything was SLOW. Any app or swipe of the screen was a full three one thousand count to actually respond. I played with the settings and voltages but could never get it even remotely fast.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
What governor and I/O were you using? I found using FIFO as an I/O gave me some lag, as did SmartassX governor. But I started using asswax with ROW and haven't had any further issues.

I'm using the Lock Clock widget, and was wondering if there's a way to click on the widget, and have the weather forecast come up.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] oaklund8:
OK. So I'm going to post in this thread because THIS is the ROM I want to run, and it works beautifully. When it boots..

My problem is ANY 4.3.x rom I've tried gets stuck at boot (at the splash screen not a boot loop). It may be 2nd or third time, but always the initial boot runs through perfectly. Things I've tried:

-Full format before install

-dirty flash over an existing 4.3 ROM

-flash, reboot recovery, nandroid b/u, full format, re-flash

I'm sure I've tried all flash/format combinations that aren't listed here. Somewhere my data partition is consistently getting garbled and un-bootable. Tried carbon and other 4.3 ROMs (forget which all) This occurs on all. 4.2 ROMs do not suffer from this problem. Currently running avatar 4.2 and it's good but I'm missing my DU goodness.

Fix it wizards. Fix it hard. I'm out of ideas
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aypeeootrek:
You try flashing a different kernel? There's a chance that could help
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TotallyAnxious:
Maybe Odin back to stock then switch to DU? I don't think it'll work but it's something you haven't tried yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] oaklund8:
Should have mentioned that. Yes. BMS and Lean I believe. Still same results.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] countryfolk07:
Try using the latest CWM recovery if you're using TWRP. Some people have said that TWRP does that. I had to do the same thing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] oaklund8:
Oh! That is an idea. Does cwm just replace twrp or do I have to take steps to remove it? And do my nandroids stay valid? I'll do some reading. Sorry to hijack this thread ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JRJ442:
[MENTION=1066741]oaklund8[/MENTION] Yeah it just replaces TWRP, so no special steps. Just download ROM Manager and flash it from there. Or you can download CWM Touch from Koushs site and flash with Flashify or something like that. And your TWRP backups will not work anymore. I also had to wipe my internal SD to fix all my issues with 4.3 ROMs. So if you still have issues that may be necessary too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] oaklund8:
Looks like it worked. This is the third boot from DU. I prefer twrp but if cwm let's me have 4.3 and beyond I'm on board.

Thank you all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
I ran I think it was 3 different 4.3 roms with twrp and I didn't have an issues flashing any of them. I just had other issues that were too annoying to deal with

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JRJ442:
I agree with preferring TWRP, right after I posted I saw there's an unofficial 2.6.3.1 TWRP build that works with Kit Kat. I wonder if it works better with 4.3 ROMs. I think I'm gonna give it a try for a bit tomorrow or Saturday.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JRJ442:
With 4.3 ROMs, it was the first time I've ever had any issue really. I'm a huge TWRP fan, I even repack the imgs with custom wallpapers and logos for the splash screen so I can have a full themed recovery. So I was devastated when all this happened. In the TWRP thread some others have the same issue, and it was reported to their bug tracker. Weird how everyone doesn't have it happen. I'm gonna do a few imgs today and run them for a bit and see if I have any issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kinnerful:
Found this new build on the download website. Anyone tried it yet?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hitechrr:
anyone have a problem with gps? it doesn't seem to work as well as the stock rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JRJ442:
Good find. I'm downloading now.

Edit I asked Barry and he said it was a test build, and its probably gonna be added to the site when the server there is fixed. I flashed and seems like its a great build so far. You still have to use kernels before 10/19 though. The drivers are still the old ones.

---------- Post added at 04:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:31 PM ----------

I went for a 6 hour drive last weekend, GPS worked fine there and back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TotallyAnxious:
It works awesome. Only problem is Gmail is stuck in the 600dpi tablet layout even after switching it to the phone one. It's a minor problem, but everything else works fine so far.

Edit: Android email is stuck in the phone layout as well.

Edit2: After rebooting 2-3 times, Gmail and Email are back to the phone layout. So everything is working.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JRJ442:
Yeah I noticed that too, it takes 2 or 3 reboots to get a hybrid setting to stick. When I changed App DPI they wouldn't stick til I did that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TotallyAnxious:
After a few hours of use the test build lost data. I reflashed and a few hours later the data went away again. Back the the 10-17 build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pbaden:
I'm having the same problem and it just happened again. I'm now in process of unrooting and restoring stock. Its the only thing that fixes it. Using cwm not twrp.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] oaklund8:
[MENTION=488816]pbaden[/MENTION]

A switch from twrp to cwm is what fixed it for me. All I can suggest is waiting for a twrp or cwm update. I seem to remember a mention in this thread of an updated twrp. Can't be certain if that will work. Are you running the latest cwm? Doing a full format before flashing. There is a different folder structure when I go from a 4.1.x rom to a 4.3.x rom. I assume some data in the /data partition is being written to during shutdown and is either unreadable, garbled, or not in the expected location during the subsequent reboot. Not being a developer I could be way off base I would wait for people smarter than I to update the recoveries.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pbaden:
Yeah. I've tried all that. Using latest cwm too. You might be right about the data but I've been wondering if it has something to do with losing root, though since I can't boot I don't know if that's the case. Going to try the latest su.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JRJ442:
[MENTION=1066741]oaklund8[/MENTION] I think you're pretty close in your description of what's happening. I think the data partition can be borked while booted and seemingly running fine, and [MENTION=488816]pbaden[/MENTION] I had that problem on every 4.3 ROM I tried. I ended up putting stuff I needed on my external SD, pictures ROM and gapps, whatever else I didn't wanna lose. Flashed CWM touch, formatted the internal SD. Then flashed ROM and gapps. That way you have a total clean slate and shouldn't run into that issue anymore. When you Odin, its still creating the old file structure. Then flashing a 4.3 ROM is gonna try to reconfigure that file structure to what it needs, causing the data corruption. I think its gonna be there for those affected until you format the internal and flash 4.3 , then let it do its thing. I was having major problems until I did that. Even updating apps would make my phone reboot and get stuck. FYI, TWRP updated for us officially to 2.6.3.1, fixing problems for flashing Kit Kat ROMs. I'm trying it now. Hopefully the same thing doesn't happen again. And here's a shameless plug for my TWRP custom curtain thread. Lol http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2432883
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pbaden:
Thank you. Format the internal memory after the 4.3 installation?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JRJ442:
I formatted the internal before I flashed 4.3, just be sure the ROM, gapps and other stuff you wanna save is on the external SD first. Before or after would probably work though. I doubt it would make a difference
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Srambo217:
Just flashed this. Feels like a well rounded ROM. I can't find out how to change the color of my notification bar on my homescreen or change the panels on my pulldown. I've been looking for about 30 minutes now haha.

oof, nevermind. Getting crazy battery drain today and changing my governor slows my device down drastically. Also getting very poor signal, it took my nearly 9 minutes to simply get Google Play Music to open and play a track.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
Srambo... Try aokp. I shifted to aokp and found better performance. Du has great animation, but the source/stripped down aokp works better on my device. Or you can get try the 4.4 builds like I'm on now... Even better battery life.

Which recovery are you using and is it the newest?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
Better battery on 4.4?i would assume opposite

Sent from my SCH-I535 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
Why would you assume that? Every new version of Android has been more efficient than its predecessor and 4.4 is no different. The media server is the main improvement for music players, in that it uses far less juice than previous versions. It also has a smaller ram requirement, which can lead to more battery use if you load the device with terrible apps like Facebook, but if you don't, it's less resources used and better battery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
Can't wait for carbon or pacman or dirty unicorns, one of these really customizable roms to update to 4.4

Sent from my SCH-I535 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
I believe Liquid's next release is going to be 4.4... and more will join quickly, because the phone-specific RILs are already coded and working 100% with CM11/AOSP 4.4, so there's no reason for them not to merge those pieces into their builds.

It's actually surprising to see a new version of Android and CM be so functional on day 1... in the past, it took weeks and even months to get devices fully functional (Motorolas were the worst).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
Oh i know... And is also cool, most of the top of the line phones are on 4.3! Only 1 android version behind what's out right now! That was not true in the past. I don't mean aosp roms either (which have been all I've ran the lady 2 years) but factory roms!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
Yea I had serious issues getting CM9 to work on the Droid 2 and it took community hacking and 6 months to get it to work. I'm amazed and so happy to have 4.4 on my S3 almost the day Google released the source code for 4.4!

I would like to see someone compile a pure AOSP/barebones rom in 4.4... I've noticed a lacking of any bare rom like that for our device, which can sometimes be more efficient than skinned/themed AOSP roms.

Clockworkmod touch 5.8.4.5
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JRJ442:
That one is ancient, no wonder its failing. Update to CWM Touch 6.0.4.3 or TWRP 2.6.3.1 and it will flash fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
I like dual pane and ability to switch colors of everything to go with wallpaper i set. I know 4.0 used more battery than 2.3 and 4.1 used more than 4.0 but after that i didnt notice much difference in any device with all the different jelly bean updates.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
The most noticeable improvement was from gingerbread to ics... The data usage and deep sleep policy was updated so we now see devices go into deep sleep when not in use. Jb was more for nfc improvement, but there were more tweaks to get better life. Google is aware battery life is the #1 beef with phone owners, so they try to improve it with each version. Imo, everything after ics seems to be device specific... Some report great life, others not so much.

Just waiting for a 4.4 rom preferably carbon or pac with all the customization

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
Have you tried liquid? Give it a go when they release the 4.4 base version. It has all the customization of carbon with some pacman features. It was my daily driver for the longest time, but my phone can't use a stock kernel with most roms, so I had to ditch it. Which customization are you looking for? I believe paranoid Android is available as a flashable file for 4.4, so you could flash it over cm11.

No. You can just go to the clockwork website and save the .img file for our phone. Then use flashify or EZ recovery to flash the image.

This is the best ROM I've ever used. Great job!!

Does anyone know how to back up the ROM specific settings without doing a complete nandroid? I've managed to backup just about everything but I can't figure that one out. Trebuchet Backup (from the Play Store) works on Trebuchet (obviously) but doesn't back up the setting like lock screen and toggles.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] saltcreep1:
OK this is the first rom that I flashed on my SIII. I always seem to come back to it. It's the best rom I've found. The one thing I wish I could find is a way to adjust the vibration intensity. Anybody know if this in an option somewhere?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
I had that happen a few times on 4.4 (and I think once on DU?). If you haven't tried this already, here's my process to rectify something like this:

1. boot into recovery and wipe dalvik and cache. If that doesn't work...

2. wipe data, dalvik and cache. If that doesn't work...

3. wipe data, dalvik, cache and reflash the rom.

You can try to pull a logcat, but if it's stuck in a bootloop, the phone probably hasn't booted up enough to start the daemon to let you see the log.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tillithz:
Right on, I did all that, and ended up wiping system and installing rom fresh. unfortunately I get horrible mobile data connection, the signal level is drastically different compared to another sgs3. in addition wifi and bluetooth cant be on at the same time or wifi will cycle connected and disconnected every 30 seconds. also, google talk cant even get data connection, seems only hangouts will work. google voice hasnt worked for almost 5 days.

the rom looks awesome and is smooth, but with little things like mobile data not working this just cant be a daily used rom for me. a shame really as I wanted to go to something new and planned to donate as I always do. heres hoping for a new version that fixes the issues.......... thanks

Hi,

I'm trying to flash a custom ROM to a friend's phone and am having a hell of a time...I'm pretty familiar with this process but I have T-Mobile so i dont have this bootloader issue.. I used casual to root, install insecure aboot to unlock the bootloader..and I flashed TWRP and everything goes well...

I then follow the instructions on here to wipe, flash, reboot but when I reboot I get the message about unauthorized software and I keep having to ODIN back..

Is there a step that I'm missing to keep the bootloader from locking up again? Please help.:confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TotallyAnxious:
Did you do the one step in casual or do each step individually? The one step method doesn't always work. I use casual but I install cwm with it. (I'd make sure to flash the latest recovery before installing any custom roms, casual hasn't been updated in a while so the included recoveries are out of date)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] disturkis4u:
Meh I figured it out. I guess casual doesn't unlock the newer boot loaders so I just used the ez unlock app to unlock the boot loader then I used casual and I'm good to go :D now my friend will see what the hype is about lol

OK, I've flashed several of the 4.4 roms and I just continue to come back to this one. The battery life if great it's smooth and I like the features. But I'm curious now on two separate occasions my phone locked up and required a battery pull. Then my phone wouldn't turn back on. Both times I've resolved the issue by plugging it into a charger and then it would power on. In neither case was the battery dead or even close. Not to big of a deal except if I didn't have a charger close by.

Anyone ever seen this behavior?
