So why is [MENTION=4538493]prdog1[/MENTION] telling us to disable it? DAMN, ALL.MEN.ARE.DOGS [emoji34] You've got me going crazy looking for ART and there is none. I think you do this stuff on purpose, Dog... :P
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Well you learned something. There is no ART. But if you had ART it would cause problems. No Art. No Problem. Problem solved. :rolleyes::p:cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
Hearing ART works well on newer devices. Experimental though, Nexus 5 owners rave over it. Hopefully on the next Android OS it's fully functional and working well. Who wouldn't want to open apps faster. [emoji3]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Depends if apps are compatible. A lot still are not. Even xposed not compatible yet. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
I see, good info. Thanks for opening my eyes [emoji1]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
That why they released some of the Source code for 5.0 or L whatever. Give app developers time to make compatible. No more dalvik once released. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ryezen:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] old&slow:
That sucks but I feel his frustration. [emoji20]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
Thinking about a new device and a bit curios, you have a rooted GS4 with 4.4.2 mostly stock on it or that is a no go also? Jw [emoji3]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] old&slow:
Yeah, I threw together my own personal 4.4.2 stock rom. There wasn't a boot check on the S4 this time. If I were you I would buy a used S4 off of Swappa and make sure it's still on the MDK bootloader.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddog511:
Then is it official? No TouchWiz roms with the 4.4.2 base?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] old&slow:
At this point, I would say that it's highly unlikely since they started signature checking the firmware too. The S4 folks got lucky this time and 4.4.2 still works on old firmware. I'm sure that will change with the next update. I bought this S4 Dev Edition which apparently will never receive an update so I'm probably screwed next go round too.

But then again, the folks on the Note3 just got a leaked test build that allows you to roll back to previous firmware so I guess I shouldn't say that it would be impossible....just highly unlikely. [emoji20]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
Thanks for the info, brother :)

Damn... F U BIG RED...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobloblaw1:
Yeah I think this phone is dead to me. I'll probably wait to see the X+1 and then make the switch to T Mobile. I'm so so fed up with Verizon thinking that they own the device that I paid for out of pocket. Their practices are basically one step removed from extortion.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] old&slow:
Agreed.....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ed hit:
So are other carriers just easier or possible to root on? What is easiest? Contract is up in August so I am wondering which carrier I would see you fine folks at?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddog511:
So what would you suggest is the best way to upgrade? Odin back and then take the Ota or just apply the update zip file?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] old&slow:
You could just grab the NE1 tar and update that way. Seems like most of the people that took the actual ota are having all kinds of problems. Just keep in mind that you can never go back. Once it's locked, it's locked.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddog511:
True, no going back, but in my case I've had terrible signal and performance running aosp roms so I guess the unlocked bootloader isn't that important to me. Although it would be nice to upgrade and keep this as just an android device rather than a phone, but I can't swing dropping $600 on another phone when this one works ok yet
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
Don't.Do.It!!! [emoji107]

He's right. . . #TRUST
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] old&slow:
I don't know. Safestrap may be the way from here on out. I'm just going to wait a little while longer to be proven wrong.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
Oh yeah I loved Hashofcode and his D3 Safestrap. ****, some folks are still into that ancient device and use it proudly. I was talking in terms of the ota and how it's no bueno. If you are used to the smoothness and speed of roms like this, the 4.4.2 ota is going to disappoint. Only thing I see that is better is the dedicated camera button on the lockscreen, but that's just me [emoji12]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddog511:
I have no problem waiting. I love this rom and so if there's still a glimmer of a chance...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] joekiv:
Please excuse if this is a dumb question, but this is still new to me. I'm rooted & unlocked with custom recovery on 4.1 2. Could I use the NE1 tar to update without going back to stock 4.1.2 first? If I can, is there anything I should do before starting the update?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] old&slow:
You can go straight to 4.4.2 using Odin. But like we were saying, that's a one way trip.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
It isn't worth it. Nothing is better on KK if you're locked up with NO CHANCE of parole. Trust me, keep to the 4.1.2 or 4.3 roms and bootloader. My wife, sister and my 2 in-laws updated to 4.4.2. My sister I had to wipe everything and start again bc the update made her phone shut off rando, apps fc rando, AND best of all, camera was nonfunctional. The others have issues too. Not as severe but issues nonetheless. Only beef I ever have with this rom is the flashlight toggle once in a while doesn't turn on right away. other than that, this bad boy is PRICELESS [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] joekiv:
Thank you for the information. I am only going to have this phone until my contract runs out a the end of August and I'm not using a custom rom right now anyway. I can use Towelroot and dump the bloat. Then when the contract ends I will probably be saying a long overdue goodbye to Big Red.

---------- Post added at 09:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:39 AM ----------

I appreciate the info, but my sentence with Verizon is up at the end of August so I won't need parole. :). There is a couple of things I want with KK such as host card emulation for one, so I can go back to using Tap & Pay with Google Wallet.

Actually he's pretty good at picking through the low level stuff. He's been trying to get a bypass going on the S4. I'm glad he's looking into it.

Device Idle is killing my battery, like down to 78% with an hour of sitting on my desk..

Fantastic ROM otherwise, running exposed with a couple of modules and no bugs so far. I assume the battery will stabilize over time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Excessiveidling:
Its been awhile since I've messed with touchwiz (short of what bonestock has when using only nova launcher) but by default with touchwiz launcher....can you assign your home button to long press and bring up google voice search(or svoice depending on your like)??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MrBrady:
You can with Xposed and Wanam
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
Or an alternate launcher like Apex or Nova
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MrBrady:
Not sure if it affects battery positively or negatively, but VulpiX Mod makes this ROM a bit more buttery:

Also, I haven't thoroughly tested it, but the White S4 Sprint 4.3 theme seems to work fine, except for some font color issues I noticed in TiBu:

Also the Google Edition S4 camera (AOSP with Photosphere) and the AOSP 4.4 clock work perfectly as well.

What widget did you use? The glass v3 from AndyBones' thread or an S4 glass widget? Can you post a link? Thanks for reporting back on this.

Anyone get all enable apps in multiwindow to work yet
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jihoonie:
I did but not the way we did on 4.1.2 with the mw app. Instead use xposed installer and enable the Wanam module. There's a setting in the module to enable the apps you want.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wolfballz:
I may be slightly retarded so bear with me. I am using stock messenger and on my lock screen when I receive a message I see a widget or something on my lock screen. If I tap it, it opens what looks like another bigger widget on the lock screen but its empty. Should something be showing up there like the full message?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] old&slow:
I know it seems goofy but after you tap the message and the second box pops up just swipe across the second box and it opens messaging app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wolfballz:
Ok, thanks. So I guess I'm not missing something then.

I also must be overlooking something but is there a way to remove the partial message part from the lock screen?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] old&slow:
Nope.[emoji1] I think they should have made the widget selectable, you know, swipe it and go directly to messaging.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
I actually use the stock app and Handsent messenger app. They don't conflict at all and I just like features one has but the other doesn't and vice versa. Handsent has a popup window and you can set it to show and use it through the lockscreen. Stock messenger I like bc Handsent is STUPID AS FU*K in how it won't show you email addresses in your contacts when composing a text. Just my 2 cents :)

Off topic but this red x or lightning bolt, after the new ota update, while charging, this a problem or no? I read it's an issue and I also read it's just the phones way of showing trickle, fast, etc type of charge. Thanks, boys :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] old&slow:
My understanding is that it is just not charging optimally, like slow charging, etc.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
Basically, is this harming the phone? Like, having a red x or having the lightning bolt? I read on a VZW Forum that there is actually 3 diff symbols that can show now. I think it was white bolt, black bolt and the red x.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] old&slow:
Supposedly it's not causing any harm, just inconvenience. If the phone is charging too slowly then you basically have to let is sit while it does it's little trickle charge. :rolleyes:

So in case no one heard of it but Vzw has started THROTTLING you unlimited data folks. Freaking punks, wish better service was around me, I'd jump ship. I don't have unlimited but my 4g sucks now and it never did before

Where did you hear/read this?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobloblaw1:
Its been all over just about every site that discusses mobile. Google turned up this along with many other reports: http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2461435,00.asp
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
Yup, read the articles the guys just posted and I heard it from Vzw high level support rep yesterday. I had an issue and I was curious to see what the rep would say when asked about throttling. She said the employees weren't told this yet but she did read about it. Funniest thing was she said that people "abusing" unlimited data should SAVE SOME DATA FOR THE REST OF US. I started to laugh and argue with her but it isn't my battle to fight, as I don't have unlimited. It's like data is likened to a nonrenewable resource and we only have so much to go around. How are you abusing it? If you pay your unlimited plans bill, you have the right to as much data as you like because IT'S UNLIMITED. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lepa71:
To verizon UNLIMITED means lose money.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
DUHHHHH :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddog511:
The few things to note about this are:

In order to see reduced speeds,

you have to be a customer that meets all of the criteria below

(again, ALL of the criteria):

Top 5% of data users (you use 4.7GB of data per month or more)

Enrolled on an unlimited data plan or feature

Have fulfilled their minimum contract term

Are attempting to use data on a cell site that is experiencing high demand

So if you're an unlimited data user, and do not meet every bit of the criteria listed (as of how their policy is currently looking - this may change), you won't feel the pinch. I've been reading a lot of comments about this issue, and people are getting bent out of shape over it, when really it likely won't even apply to them. Yes, we pay for unlimited data, but we are still getting unlimited data. They're just going to slow us down a bit IF we meet all the points listed above.

IMO, this really isn't as big a deal as some people are making it out to be.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ryezen:
Depending on the logic behind it, I think it's a good thing. For one, if it means I could see better speed/performance because all the torrent/streaming/file-sharing tards are throttled, I'm all for it.

On the other hand, I'm hoping Verizon isn't doing it just to avoid having to upgrade networks that would otherwise need to be upgraded.

I seriously feel that "mainstream" users who use their -mobile- network for stuff like browsing, occasional YouTube watching, map data, etc, shouldn't have to see performance hits because of overzealous users downloading hundreds of gigs of p2p files and whatnot. That's what desktop connections are for. I love how people correlate having the ability to abuse something as feeling that it's automatically "appropriate" to abuse it.

Additionally, unlimited does not necessarily mean unthrottled, nor should it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobloblaw1:
So they claim. In practice we will see. My experiences on FIOS don't fill me with hope, however.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nl3142:
So is it necessary to wipe data if I am going from a stock VRBLK3 rom? To be specific, it is rooted and I have cwm but everything else is completely stock, aside from freezing a few built in apps like whatever checks for OTA updates.

Just wondering because reinstalling everything from Google Play is going to take forever, and even worse some newer versions of certain apps are broken. (and even worse, apparently you are not supposed to restore user data which means restarting any games and such from scratch)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] old&slow:
Would definitely be a good idea coming from a 4.1.2 based rom to a 4.3 based rom.

Edit: I restore userdata for non-system apps all the time with TiBu. I've got a small number of apps that I restore after every wipe that have proven safe.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nl3142:
Ok, I was told to just reinstall all non-system apps one at a time from Google Play (very slow and sometimes the latest version will have features removed compared to earlier ones) and never to restore userdata at all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] old&slow:
If you're unsure which ones will play nice you can restore them one or two at a time along with their data and just watch for problems.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
I was going to get a LG G3 but my wife wanted a GS5 but she has no upgrade. Being her birthday and all, I gave her my upgrade. Ik, I get husband of the year now [emoji12] Heard you can root the LG G3 and stuff. Only problem is will it have the cult following that the Moto E815, Droid 3, GS3 n GS4 had bc without that, rooting is a moot point as the roms n mods will be few and far between. Notes are cool. Just really big and clumsy. My brother-in-law broke the glass on 2 of his, Note 2 and 3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lepa71:
LG G2 has quite a bit roms. I'm thinking to pick one from CL. My wife already has one and it's very nice.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobloblaw1:
I'm waiting to see the deal with the Moto X+1.

Note 4 is tempting but I don't want to be stuck in the Touchwiz universe -- an unlocked/unlockable boot loader was the saving grace of Samsung devices.

I know the X+1 is likely to be locked as well, but close to AOSP with enhancements and updates to new versions within a week make it pretty tempting.

In short, I think I could get away with just root on the the x+1 but I'm going to need more on the Note or another Sammy device.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] brickbeats:
My wife has the G2 also, it is a very nice phone, but it's hard to not get another Samsung phone. I've been team Samsung since the Omnia!
