Hello!

I am new on this room, try several bat all had some problems for me. Bat this one looks great for now, no problems for now.

I have just few issues, if you can help me it will make this room perfect for me. Why Wanam Xposed didn't work full, some things do not work for me. I can't add call buttons in call logs and contacts, and secondary symbols on Samsung keyboard. I check them in Wanam Xposed, but after restart everything is the same, no secondary symbols and call buttons. And can i remove messages from call logs?

Can you help me with this? I will be very grateful and the room will be perfect for me.

I did full wipe even format internal storage. Using Yank555 kernel, and blue theme, and Samsung (stock) keyboard.

Thanks for this room. And sorry for my English it is not so good.

For that kind of problems you should ask Wanam not archi :)

can someone explain me, please tell me if i must be rooted to flash the recovery before the rom?the steps are 1. root 2. flash custom recovery 3. flash rom?What about the flashcounter?iam on latest 4.3 stock.thanks:cowboy:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benedictros:
No need to root to install. Just enter recovery, choose install and choose the Archidroid installer zip. Once in the aroma installer, choose the option to install latest recovery. Then enter recovery again, make nandroid backup, then wipe to install new rom, and install archidroid.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] microcens:
so i dont need first to flash via odin philz touch recovery ?i use stock recovery to flash the rom zip?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benedictros:
You can use Odin to flash the latest philz. But the archidroid installer also has the philz recovery install option. So you can install it from there if you like.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wangdaning:
If you have stock recovery you need to use odin to install philz. This is correct, custom recovery is not root though. You do not need root to use odin or have a custom recovery.

This will increase your binary count, as having a custom recovery does that.

So, 1) use odin to flash philz 2) use philz to flash archidroid 3) enjoy

Hi everyone. I atach BBS shots just taken. Does anyone know what "PowerManagerService.Wakelocks" (as seen in kernel wakelock screenshot) does to my AD 1.7.16 powered by Boeffla 5.3beta 4? Tried previous betas and the same "hungry" wakelock appeared.

Also, any ideas how to get rid of the "Nlp" partial wakelocks, other than greenifying or freezing Google services? From reading other threads I understand that it is not recommended to remove or otherwise mess with Google services process... or should I?

Many thanks in advance.

Which kernel is the best for s3 kitkat roms?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustArchi:
PowerManagerService wakelocks are the same as partial wakelocks. And your issue is directly connected with the usage of GPS. Either:

1. Make sure that you don't have running-in-background apps that constantly retrieve your location.

2. Change GPS mode to "powersaving", this will not use GPS but only network connection.

3. Turn off your GPS permanently.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] katolink:
Thanks Archi, much appreciated, as always. By GPS powersaving mode you mean the general power save feature from system settings or a special setting available elsewhere? Thanks again!

Having a funky problem and need your help guys.

When I transfer files from pc to phone, I put files in /storage/extsdcard. When I try to attach these transfered files to email, or upload them, or unzip I get a failure message. For example, when trying to unzip I get "null:(file path)", when I try to send via email or share to Google drive it says "failed to upload", instantly.

If I copy and paste those files to internal SD, everything functions normally.

Any suggestions? Am I moving files to the wrong directory?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acezuti:
Lol :):) and how did you enable it? I tried everything to add call button and can't :) how is this possible we use the same room and you have them and i don't :(

What kernel do you use? I am wandering what did you do different from me to have call buttons ? Did you have them from start?

Does anyone else have problems with youtube? When I lunch youtube it freeze the phone and force it to restart. Bat not full restart only system like hot both. I am on boeffal kernel.

Other apps are okay. Only YouTube, and I can browse the app fine, make search for the videos or go to play lists, bat as soon as I start playing the video it freeze for a second and after fast reboot, the video did not even start. It do not make full restart only the system. It do not show Samsung or any boot animation freez sec and lock screen and need some time for apps to show in app drawer :(:(:(

Did everything no fix for this for me will see what will do ether go without YouTube or will try different room :(:(

If you ask me, I'm using AOSP theme by [MENTION=509880]Crussader[/MENTION] and it works awesome, you just need to tweak it through custom settings to your liking.

Hey Archi,

I'm just about to flash 1.7.16 onto my stock i9300. I was just wondering how I would enable the usb otg setting? I know you said it's kernal dependant, so I was thinking if I choose the googy max option during the set-up (I saw they have usb otg enabled) I would have my problem sorted...

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benedictros:
I jumped from 1.7.14 to .16

I've been using it and testing it since it was released by justarchi. I noticed that it seems to kill apps much faster than before (I. E. Background apps). Anyone else notice this?

For example, I was trying to download 2.x via adflash git. Someone called me and the terminal window closed in the background (interrupting download and forcing me to start all over again) ... It happened numerous times and also happens to apps like cooltool (the status bar up top disappears, then it is reloaded again later on). Also with chronus, which also seems to reload all contents sometimes (like when I press home button from another app, chronus has no calendar entries and weather, then it loads). Also happens to twilight (app like lux for controlling screen warmth and dim).

Not sure if this is just my problem or what. Btw I am using Boeffla with ultra power save.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acezuti:
In the last few days I have tried all themes, except black theme. And wanam xposed worked definitely on all of them.

You can't add secondary symbols on keyboard and call button on call logo's, on aosp and blue theme, and YouTube not work with blue theme.

So if you like all to work on wanam xposed go with stock or s5 them. You can add secondary symbols on keyboard and call button on them.

If you have problems with wanam xposed try different theme it may fix them.

I'm using lasted 1.7.16 ROM.

Can anyone explain to me the option on Archidroid backend Adblock Force local DNS?

Sent from my old but fast S3zzz
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustArchi:
By default ArchiDroid Adblock uses OpenDNSes, GoogleDNSes and your local DNSes (which are listed in ArchiDroid app itself). Dnsmasq sends request to all DNS servers listed above and accepts the first (fastest) response. In some cases, i.e. using school network, you may be forced to use "their" DNSes because OpenDNSes or GoogleDNSes may return wrong IPs, which will result in no network. This is a workaround for this lack of freedom.

Hey guys, I need help.. When I try to open a file from my /storage/EXTSDcard directory, like a ppt or pdf or Doc, it says "file cannot be opened". Pictures open fine. I also cannot share files from this directory (like I have to copy paste to internal SD before I can share via email, etc).

Any idea why or how I can fix the problem? Nothing major, it's just annoying because it slows down work flow.

Change your filemanager, root browser bundled with ArchiDroid works fine.

This is connected with faulty app because it doesn't declare using of second storage.

Thanks for the suggestions Archi. I just tried ES File manager and Root Browser, they both return same error... "file does not exist or cannot be accessed".

I also tried with two different office apps, Quick Office and WPS Office. Still didn't work. Weird...

Any other ideas?

And on one phone only, I'm expecting camera error, cannot open it, it says "Camera Error" Even if I mark the option to fix the camera during the flash!
