Not kernel related...

The invisible gap is a know issue with toddler mode (fixed in the upcoming v9).. Toggle it off and it will disappear. The am/pm in the pulldown has always been removed. The pulldown clock runs on separate smali due to the clock mod, and it was intentionally left out..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] RTsMorphedS3:
You mean you're already working on MOAR v9.0?? Dont you ever sleep??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] marcran75:
I prefer to not have the am/pm in the status/notification. I mean.......do you really need it??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
I can't tell whether it's day or night in my underground cave without it.:p
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] metalfan78:
Yea, the am/pm is useless. When I first started modding that was one of the first things I wanted to remove.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] marcran75:
Glad I came across this post. I had deleted S-Voice but not the files associated with it. Deleting those files seems to have gotten rid of a lag I was beginning to notice when turning my screen on.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] marcran75:
You can find a a lot of "apps safe to remove" threads but none of them list the files to remove that are associated with said apps. After debloating my phone I probably still have a ton of useless files on it.

MK5 using Sprint MOAR 8.1 cell towers

I loaded the MK5 modem and reception has greatly improved, but I use Tasker to do different things when I near certain towers and now they all are show up names as -1. Is this because it's a Virgin Mobile modem?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] glserr:
Delete
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] thekrautdog:
Thanks:cool:

Not instant but definitely better :good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tdunham:
Can you put together a little uninstaller script for Svoice in case anyone wants to get rid of it the easy way? :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Quoted the wrong person, but yes I can do that tomorrow, got the wife's birthday tonight. Also I think it auto corrected me, the other folder is system/ voicebargeindata
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] marcran75:
I assumed that was what you meant since there was no /bargeindata.

Knox secure bootloader.

I just want to confirm that this doesnt include the Knox bootloader since the wording in the first post is not very clear to me.

Thank you!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Wrightperspective:
So "Based on MK3 firmware // Knox free including bootloader!" wasn't clear? Not trying to be rude - just asking if you maybe interpreted it differently.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] meyerweb:
This does not include Knox. The bootloader is part of the kernel, not part of the ROM, and this download doesn't affect the kernel at all.

That said, if you already accepted the 4.3 OTA, you have Knox, and installing this ROM won't remove it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] marcran75:
Think you should do some more research on KNOX before you start trying to educate others about it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Yeah this ROM definitely effects the kernel (you have to choose one of the 3), but that's not where Knox is at, it's in the bootloader. Knox also has apps but those are easily removed. There is a thread on Knox in the General section, I recommend reading the OP all the way through, a lot of good information.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] meyerweb:
I stand by my statement. If you accept the OTA, you have Knox, and nothing you can install with this ROM will remove it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
Applications quick launch panel...coming soon to a rom near you ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] the_mentor:
Just to clarify

I'm currently running CM 10.2 and haven't received any OTA since maybe a year ago so i'm sure i don't have KNOX at the moment.

I want to install a TW ROM so i can do some tasks that's only available in TW but i don't want the KNOX bootloader since i'm planning on going back to CM.

Would the ROM work for what i want to do based on the info above? and protect me from the evil KNOX?

Thank you very much for the info i'm just trying to be cautions.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ramer:
Yes, it will. To state the obvious, make a Nanoid. You will need to update your modem to MK3 and then do a clean install. A lot of people are saying you need to wipe internal storage as well. I did not do that and I've had no problems. Just to clarify, it does NOT install Knox, you don't need to worry about that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] the_mentor:
Awesome thanks.

I was able to do everything I needed and no Knox.

That thing is plain evil!!

Found a bug Air Gesture does not work. I set it to show me notifications waved my hand over it and nothing happened. I than tried the tutorial and the pickup tutorial crashes so definitely not working.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] thekrautdog:
I don't remember seeing this brought up before and I'm current with the thread - also did a quick thread search...I'm wondering if it would be possible to incorporate the ability to swipe left and right through the tabbed pages in settings.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
I believe tdunham was looking into it, I know it's a lot more work than it sounds like. He got it working on the S2 4.1.2 so I believe in him.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] meyerweb:
I'm pretty sure it was stated that the Air things aren't yet implemented, even though they show up in the toggles. Maybe in version 9.

So I installed the rom, then the modem update. I still do not get any 3G/4G. Need some help troubleshooting. Thank you
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] erikalin:
Make sure the MK3 modem really did flash - Settings/more/about phone/baseband.

So my next question. IS there anyway on the lock screen to have it with security and still have multiple lockscreens?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ramer:
Anyone else can answer? I just use swipe to unlock.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] treedog5:
Since someone just helped me with a similar issue, I feel it's my duty to help you.

Settings => Moar Mod Control => noobz extras => Flashblink => Settings => SMS => Uncheck flash for new Sms. :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mech8:
Google now and Internet seem to crash a lot when I use them. Anyone else?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] rickmatic:
It's amazing how many people have problems.

Then there's those of us who have a smooth running perfect rom.

I know not all phones are the same, but that's a lot of incompatible phones OR bad flashes. Idk what it is.

Fyi..... I've said it before 4.3 creates a "0" folder all ur stuff (if coming from 4.1.2 rom) should be inside ur internal storage in another folder. This rom doesn't wipe anything u don't want it to wipe.

That's why I personally recommend an internal wipe. I haven't had 1 issue with this EVERYTHING including myhub works flawless.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mech8:
But since all phone should have had to come from 4.1 I would think that Samsung would have taken that into consideration? The old and new storage that is.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] rickmatic:
I completely agree, but if we start talking about what Samsung should've taken into consideration we would have no need to flash custom roms. ...:p
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] barberboy420:
Im using es file explorer would go to device then data?when I did that folder was empty but when I select whether to look in the external card I see a path labeled "0" when I go into it I see the old files you mentioned. My question is how do I go about doing this. I trying to restore a app thru tb but it doesn't show my apps

rooted galaxy tab and What!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mech8:
Them and Google should have thought of that. Lol however I would still need custom roms cuz unfortunately companies like our cell phone carriers are in the business to make money and I'm not paying to use my phone as a hotspot or anything else. Lol not to mention colors and other mods. We should start our own legal team for romp so he can put out Sammys roms or help Google make new versions. Get it right the first time *****es!!! Lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] therenegadenail:
so every time i use google voice commands, like call whomever, it always says google process has stopped working, and then i press ok and it does the thing anyways

any idea whats going on and how to fix?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] .Bambino:
It is nice to see someone not having issues. I understand some people would have an issue. I think it has a lot of people dirty flashing possibly. I know I did a factory reset and I still had some issues. But that was before 7.0 was even released. I see you said you should wipe internal. I am using TWRP. I have no idea which version since I haven't updated in a while. It's a recovery for crying out loud. Anyway, when you say wipe internal do you mean factory reset, wipe cache, dalvick? Or is it something else we should be doing?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Orion78:
does anyone know where I can find the initial install wallpaper from this rom?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] rompnit:
The biggest change I have seen with MK3, is actually the lack of TouchWiz code. My opinion of course, Sammy was in a hurry to get 4.3 out across multiple devices, and so they fell back more on the AOSP code. AOSP has had the '0' folder for a long time now.. just they way of the code. :good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mech8:
Also I wouldn't move files to the main storage on phone mine seems to be reading info from the folder anyway. If u mess up the paths some apps may not work
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] glserr:
ROMPNIT this ROM is great, super fast with no issues so far, thanks, cant wait to see what's next, here is a screen shot of my layout
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dweber81:
[MENTION=1167171]rompnit[/MENTION] so the myHub issue seems to me that the lib file I have has a size of 0 in ROOT >data>data>mik??? (sorry cannot remember the folder at this time as I have myHub removed) but I want to test this theory. I need the lib file that is more that 0. Can you send a link out here?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JupiterOne:
I do think most issues are 'dirty' flash related. I would advise all to make a nandroid then factory reset and wipe both cache and dalvik then do the install.

I've been running all day smoothly with PhilZ recovery, dpk kernel, wanam, etc... Installed all my apps and games, about an hour of game playing throughout the day, created a nandroid and still have 63% battery. Only thing i'm missing is a reboot toggle in the drop down.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dweber81:
Nice wallpaper. Here is my home layout on 4.3.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] TomThom:
Ok...so does this rom include the mk3 radio now? How can we tell if our device already has the updated radio....still a little new to the whole flashing thing....also what is the best options when you install this ROM? I'm using 6.0 right now and just stuck with the stock options....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] scottsnl:
Went from moar 6 to 7 yesterday. 7 seems to be pretty stable. One thing I can't find is how to disable the camera flash from flashing when the phone rings. Can someone please help me find the setting?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tdunham:
Anyone use the noise suppression feature without issues?

The reason I ask is because I accidentally turn it on sometimes and it causes all kinds of issues with call quality. I have devised another mod to completely disable the noise reduction feature and was just wondering if anyone was interested. I suppose one of the guys could make a toggle for it as well. ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Sweet!

---------- Post added at 07:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:48 AM ----------

I've had it enabled all along and I don't get any complaints.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tdunham:
I haven't tested it's use very well but I think I have issues when it is enabled while I'm in a low signal area maybe? I'll have to test that theory out too.

What happens for me is the caller can't hear me very well for a few seconds then it seems to be ok or noise reduction kicks in properly. At least, that is what I've been told. Maybe its thinking about it and there is a lag for some folks?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jbadboy2007:
It does seem to have a lag for me as well but when they can eventually hear me they say it's more quiet than normal. I do not use this feature or would I care if it's gone altogether.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
You know me... I like everything LOUD
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Chad The Pathfinder:
I NEVER use it and see removing as a good thing. Just me 2 cents.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tdunham:
Ryan, you're going to have to post an audio clip of the wife someday. :eek:

Oh, and thank her from the bottom of our hearts for tolerating you(r spending so much time with us ;))

On another note, puttering around trying to get call holding working too. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Deleted... wrong thread
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
And tdunham has a Call Record mod and a mod to remove Noise Reduction here
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tdunham:
That will work but it will disable the Phone toggles in MOAR Rom Control and the users will need to use the ones built into call settings instead. Just a heads up if anyone tries to install it.

Edit: I will post a guide for the guys to maybe add the Disable Noise Reduction feature into a future MOAR rom update when I have a few.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prboy1969:
I turned off the Noise Reduction feature for a while. Because I was getting complaints of people not being able to hear me well. The sound being garbled. But then I turned it back on, and flashed the kernel again. Haven't had any complaints, or issues since.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] meyerweb:
I use it, and in noisy environments it works really well, making it easier for others to hear me. Make it a toggle, but don't remove it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] marcran75:
Removing the S-Voice file apparently wasn't the cause of my screen on lag. I've done a clean install and even tried another rom and I'm still getting it. It's a 3-4 sec delay before my screen comes on. Anyone else experience this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] thekrautdog:
Yes, sort of. I removed S-Voice and its related files to remove the home button lag (press to return to homescreen). It seemed better (although not gone) at first but like I said before it fluctuates and today its back to up to a couple seconds...doesn't sound like a lot but it is frustrating.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Tested right now and it takes less than a second for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
Guys, I've looked into this, run my own tests in attempts to fix it, and it just seems to be 4.3 itself. I've run logcats on turning on the screen and they all show things along the lines of SurfaceFlinger: call_on_wake took too long: 450 ms and other things that hint at memory leaks or redundant calls leading to the net effect of "on wake" lag

SurfaceFlinger is the application (written in native C code) that bridges android graphics calls to hardware graphics calls

The worst thing is that we can't even modify it or attempt to fix the lag since its native code compiled into an executable (see /system/bin/surfaceflinger), and not an apk or compiled java code (which IS reversible to some form of understandable assembly code)

tl;dr Everything just seems to point to one thing: badly programmed surfaceflinger code. I've said it before and I'll say it again, I honestly just think that Samsung did not put a whole lot of effort into making this update perform well
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] meyerweb:
Right about 1 second for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Dark_N1ghtmar3:
I'm getting a lot of force closes and I clean installed and checked md5 before install and it was all good to go but I tried smart keyboard pro and pressed download dictionary and it force closed do a lot my apps force closing at start up
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] thekrautdog:
I very very much appreciate the effort put into finding that out :good::good::good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] offtohavasu:
Another interesting lag for me is when I make a call, you hear it start ringing, then a second or two later it will make the "connect" sound
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] loaderboy:
Some phones seem to act differently depending on kernel, settings, tweaks etc.

I was experiencing some lag early on but as of now almost zero lag when screen turns on. No lag changing screens or hitting home button to return to home screen.

Sometimes maybe a short lag when closing an app but that may be normal.

Currently running KT kernel with [MENTION=2674887]Ramer84015[/MENTION] Ramer_KT_settings.txt.

Took a day for it to settle in but runs well and great battery.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
For that, try toggling toggling noise reduction
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] offtohavasu:
Thanks c. Tried that and have it off right now.

Hopefully Samsung will be more friendly with kitkat
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Liner81:
I second the suggestion for using [MENTION=2674887]Ramer84015[/MENTION] settings... I had the unpredictable lag in waking up the screen as well... sometimes immediate, sometimes long (4-8 second delay). I removed S Voice as suggested, no change.

The governor and settings that Ramer has set up work very well for me. Good battery, no lag. Happy.

Am I the only one having issues with text messaging? When I get multiple texts at once from someone,it does not show then in the right order
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MontyPyFly:
I think that's the service, not the room. Especially getting texts from iPhone and "dumb phones" which send sms in multiple texts when they get too long.

I got food poisoning the other day..... I don't know when I'll use it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] marcran75:
Anyone stop to think why they're pushing KitKat out so quickly after we waited forever for 4.3. I think they know they effed up in an effort to sell as many Galaxy Gears during the holiday season as they could. All about $$$$$$ to them.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tdunham:
I wonder if anyone has tried just pulling in a different 4.3 SurfaceFlinger bin file to try out. I don't have this issue with screen lag but if anyone is interested, maybe we can provide up a few for people to test out. I just flashed the file I pulled out of an I9300 4.3 build and it seems to be working fine.

Update: Just compared the I9300 SurfaceFlinger file to our own and the binaries are identical. Go figure. LOL

I'll keep trying.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Anybody experiencing screen on lag, have you disabled the home button for screen on?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] metalfan78:
I haven't disabled it because I like that feature. Have disabled it and gotten rid of the lag?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Just trying to see what everybody else is experiencing right now. A lot of mods sometimes makes things hard to track down.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ryno2333:
I have a little bit of lag with the home screen but not much. Lately I've had the home button not work at all. I can long press it and it brings up the recent apps like it should but when I single press it I get nothing. I usually have to reboot to get it to work again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] burghfan3:
Weird.....the only zip flashes were Comadose, the Comadose Remover, and the Exposed Disabler. I can still boot into TWRP, but can't flash anything. Also no access to SU. Any thoughts? I'll root again soon, but just wanted to prevent another mishap. Running 4.3(it was on there when I got it as a replacement), with KT kernel
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Just flash the SuperSu zip from their XDA page
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
The thing is, I (and others) have had this problem since stock

---------- Post added at 11:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:51 AM ----------

The thing is since surfaceflinger acts as the bridge, it could very well also be the HAL (hardware abstraction layer)that's taking too long to respond to surfaceflingers calls

See /system/lib/hw/[copybit, gralloc, hwcomposer].msm8960.so

If you replace THOSE though, the device display will either not work, or surfaceflinger will throw a fit of errors
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prboy1969:
Some users have reported this happening with older versions of ComaDose Mod. If you check the thread, you'll see various posts about it. It's fairly easy to fix. Just flash the SuperSU file as suggested by bilgerryan. Then update binaries. Or you can fix while still in Recovery after flashing ComaDose. This has been resolved in the newer version. I believe it was an issue with the Recovery sh.

Flashed and wallpaper no longer fc'ed but my Google play store began to fc :T any idea what can be causing this? Tried wiping cache and data from the play store but still got the fc
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tdunham:
See if removing your Google account and then adding it back does anything for that. I know there were a couple of other things to try but that's the only one I can remember.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] burghfan3:
Thanks guys. All is well. It happened either after I got rid of Comatose, or got rid of Exposed. I lost SU after updating. Had to download from market again. I'm gonna quit pissing around. This rom runs great "as is" for me. I personally don't need any "add-ons". I'm not knocking them, or their developers, I'm just happy with MOAR
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
What I was getting at was disabling the home button screen on seemed to significantly increase the lag (3-4 seconds) for me. I enabled it and it's back at about a second... just a thought, haven't put much testing into it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] marcran75:
I've seen others report that enabling home button/wake decreased their lag time as well. I personally don't use it because it turns on the phone when it's in my pocket.
