That's a good idea. I had used an old VRALF I had DL'd waaay back when I first got the phone. Maybe some bits decayed on it or something. Looks like SamMobile is the only place that has untouched factory ROMs. All the ones I can find here are either down, deleted, or the file host has been seized by the MPAA assclown dept.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
Rootzwiki? I'm not sure if VRALF 1 is 4.1.2 but why not go with that one? That's what my phone came with when I got it last September. Forgive me if VRALF 1 is 4.1.2. ;)

Been having an issue with the stock calendar, I assume that is what this zip contains, could I flash this and see if it helps or not a good idea? I keep having calendars disappear, like I have weather, events, holidays, Facebook, etc all showing in my calendar and some days half these things disappear. I have to go and wipe calendar storage, re-sync, and then all the items reappear. Anyway, let me know if I can flash this. Thanks so much :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
VRALF2 is ICS 4.0.4 stock image. The latest (safe) stock image to flash is VRBMF1 4.1.2. [MENTION=4538493]prdog1[/MENTION] so graciously posted a link awhile ago for it. You could try that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] catalyst11:
I really don't think it's a ROM issue being that there has been minimal complaints about this rotational freezing. Only us and maybe a couple others have mentioned it so this makes me think our phones' hardware is not liking something and causing the freezing. I never had the issue on 4.1.2 ROMs so I know this is new since the 4.3 ROMs came out and I'm guessing it's the same case for you. I've done a couple full wipes and clean installs but the issue is persistent, no matter if it was with just stock or with several mods. This does make me hesitant to install a 4.3 ROM on my family menbers' (6 other GS3's) phones though because while I'm OK with turning off auto rotate, they might not be. Also they all have Otterboxes so that's a PITA to take off/put on to do a battery pull. Hope someone figures out a fix. If not, I hope the next update (4.4?) from VZW takes care of the issue. I wonder if any stock non-rooted users have the freezing issue.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
From all that I have read, GS3 will not be getting a Vzw/Samsung update to Kit Kat 4.4. You can try the few Kit Kat 4.4 roms that are out there but it may make things worse. Idk though what bad might happen if you flash Kit Kat ROMs. Read up in the Kit Kat 4.3 xda threads. Good luck.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] roachkv:
It is. And I did. But, still, no widget. Just the app
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
I see. Well, did you try the zip that [MENTION=4818411]RayMcGrath[/MENTION] posted? Wipe cache and dalvik, then install the zip. Also, check this thread for how to install the apks if that doesn't work. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1969991 Good luck :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Aquila76:
Thanks for that. All the links I've found are on slow as hell Rapidgator or similar sites with no hash checks.

I'm starting to think this way, too; it's some minor outlying HW issue. I was running Synergy and BoneStock (both 4.1.2 ROMs), then the CM 10.x & 11 ROMs with no issues. Not until the "official" TW 4.3 ROM did I have this problem. All I really want TW for is so that MiraCast and MHL work, which none of the CM-based ROMs support AFAIK. If Verizon wasn't such a damn paranoid restrictive NSA-whore with KNOX and all the bootloader security, it would make my life a LOT easier. LOL.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] catalyst11:
I read on Phandroid the GS3 was going to get Kit Kat. Would be nice but I guess I shouldn't expect it.

I did a Google search last night concerning the 4.3 update on GS3's and read about the screen freezing issue even on other carriers' GS3's. Also a wide range of issues on the 4.3 update in general. I think there will be a minor update soon to fix some of the issues that stock users have reported.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
All reports of upcoming updates are always for the International version. US may or may not get and if do will be months later if prior update history holds true. We only got 4.3 to help sell Samsung watch. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DigitalMD:
Software is never intermittent, hardware is. So its not the ROM. Have you tried different kernels? The included kernel is not stock and is undervolted, LK is default undervolted also and does not work for every phone. Also, are you overclocking? (don't) , running XPOSED framework (try removing that) in other words. clean install the ROM and make sure you are using a kernel that has the stock Samsung voltage settings and that you are not adding any custom tweaks. LK has a script to set default voltages, KT kernel has a tuner and you can set everything to default,
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
I'm still running the 4.0 beta LeanKernel....I don't know if it was changed in the official 4.0, but I haven't even installed a tuner app since I installed the kernel and the voltages do not appear to be undervolted by default....see the picture below...

This file I have shown in the screenshot (UV_mV_table) is located in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Pretty sure Imoseyon does that intentionally on all his kernel releases. Some can't UV at all and that's due to their cpu version (fast, nominal, or slow).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DigitalMD:
The beta LK had some issues and LK is undervolted by default. Update to the newest release and run his script to restore voltage to stock.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
The voltages ARE stock.....from 384 to 1512 MHz the voltages are all 1150mV...and maybe I'm lucky....but the beta has been a true winner for me....absolutely ZERO issues whatsoever and my phone is fast as hell! I am in no way trying to discount anything you say....however Im a true believe in "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"...

Edit: and I've been using the beta since Jan. 9th....so that's quite a long time....I think if there were any issues I would've run into them by now, don't you?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DigitalMD:
Whatever.... but if the developer says it had an issue and he fixed it, I'd believe him first, he should know.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
He does do that intentionally....which he clearly states in his thread(s) on Rootzwiki, and that is why I'm scratching my head wondering why people are saying otherwise! And because of the simple fact, like you said, that we don't all have exactly the same revision CPU in our phones, that would be a good reason right there why someone like me would have no problems at all, meanwhile there are probably people that have nothing but problems! I know that I should probably update to the official 4.0:rolleyes:, but I honestly don't think I even need to! Maybe I will anyway now....lol! See what you guys did....:pand I thought my kernel was perfect!:eek:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Man, I'm never satisfied with my kernel setup haha. I actively switch between UV to 925 mv at my lowest steps OR if I want to listen to audio without popping I switch to a setup with 1150 mv as a minimum. Life of a tweaker haha

Yeah, looks like 4.3 really messed with all of the US carriers' crapware. I may end up dual-booting this ROM and CM11 so I can have one side for blasting stuff to my AVE and another so I can use the phone normally. Think that's gonna be next week's project.

Hey all, I wanted to try the GS4 secmail.apk with this ROM. Am I playing with fire if I take the secmail.apk and install it? The apk won't install, so I'd need to use Root Browser, copy and paste the apk, then change the permissions. Also, anyone know if the secmail is any diff between gs3 and gs4? Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Probably the same but still could have compatibility problems due to hardware /framework differences . Have to manually install or push any system app. :cool:

I see. I'm not going to mess around bc last time I messed with the stock calendar app I got a boot loop and had to wipe all and reinstall this ROM. I just can't find a good email app w/ a nice widget that's free and I'm not going to pay $5+ for one. The hunt continues...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:

Gotcha. I just wish the K9 email app had a nice widget, their widgets are useless. Oh well, I'll try another 200 email apps and see what happens ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DigitalMD:
There are very few good email apps or widgets out there and K9 is no longer being supported by the developer., what is it that you are trying to achieve that TW or AOSP email doesn't do?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
Would like a widget that shows all emails; can cycle throw each mailbox and I an update the emails from the widget. I use the gmail app for gmail, but I need a good email app for my one AOL and 2 pop3 emails. I'd like to customize the colors of each mailbox in the app. The stock app is OK but can't ever get AOL to work right and sync. You will see that each mailbox has a color, but you can't chose your own, they pick colors for you and they are horrid. If I could get the colors changed and the sync to work with the stock app, I'd be very happy.

---------- Post added at 11:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:12 PM ----------

AOSP email? Is that something I can use on this ROM? I'm not familiar with it. Thanks for your insight.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lexluthor:
Why do you say that? K9 got an update last week.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] catalyst11:
Yes you can push the Kit Kat AOSP email and exchange apks and change permissions. I never use the Samsung email app, only AOSP. Not sure if it's good enough for you're looking for as it assigns your email accounts different colors as well that you can't change.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
Cool. I'll check the threads for that email app but I found a Kit Kat one. It says it is the stock Kit Kat email app. It looks just like the gmail app and all. Works well but leaves something to be desired. Is this the same one? Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] catalyst11:
Yes that's the one that looks just like the Gmail app.

Sent from my VZW GS3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lexluthor:
With either TW or AOSP email, is there any option for imap idle push? Both ask me for a sync interval and then don't receive the email until the sync interval is hit.

With K9, I get my email almost instantly.

I'd also expect that pulling email on intervals uses a lot more battery than getting the email pushed.

No push is a total dealbreaker for me for either TW or AOSP email.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
Thanks. I mean, it's not a bad app, but it's very minimal. I feel the stock email on the 4.3 GS3 is better. Anyway, the search continues. Lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hobart!:
I know I am late to this party but I just flashed the new MOAR 8.0 and figured I'd try the also mms app in OP.....WOW love it great job Old and Slow!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DigitalMD:
Because I stopped using K9 a long time ago when the developer dropped it. Yes it is now "community" supported but its fallen woefully behind, for example it still only supports older exchange 2007.

---------- Post added at 10:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:25 AM ----------

The best combination I have found for supporting multiple providers and custom inboxes is Executive Assistant + (paid) plus Enhanced Email or KitKat email.

I no longer use IMAP so I can;t speak to that option. I can say that polling IMAP doesn't use any more battery than IMAP push because IMAP push requires constant handshake messages to be exchanged between client and server.

Yes you can use AOSP email, there are threads about that here on the forum.

Have you tried the lookalike version of K-9, Kaiten. I think it's great.

The full version is not free and the ratings are not great, Why do you think its great? We should start a separate thread. Email clients on Android are a source of never ending complaints.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RayMcGrath:
Pretty cool. that this ROM and themes are so stable that our conversation has turned to email applications and widgets :D

Found this once before but didn't like the look, K-@ Mail. Tried it again yesterday and it's completely customizable, Idk if I missed that or it's new in the settings.

So it looks like my phone was rebooting while in recovery due to the power button problem that i have been having for the past month or so. Spoke to Verizon support just now, they were really nice and offered to ship me a replacement even though i dont have the manufacturers warranty anymore. The new phone will be here Friday; hopefully its still on 4.1.2 so that i can unlock it and flash away.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] old&slow:
Good luck and I'm glad you figured that out. Since it's coming from VZW there's a good chance it will still be on MF1, unlike Asurion which makes sure the phone is updated to the latest software before shipping. :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
