*I bought this off a friend of mine.*

All he told me was that he tried installing a rom and he thinks that he installed a rom for a different model S3.

What Happens/What

I

Did?

1. I tried to plug it into the computer and the computer doesn't show that anything plugged in, the S3 doesn't turn on. NOTHING.

2. I connected the phone to the PC without the battery inside and the phone responds with one RED light at the top left of the phone. Nothing shows up on my computer still, not even that the phone was connected NOTHING.

3. I bought a JIG device and tried plugging it into my phone and it doesn't work. (I previously tested this JIG on another samsung device and it worked)

4. I tried doing the method to use a 16gb SD card and downloading an i747m debrick IMG and using Win32FlashTool to copy it to my SD Card. I tried with 2 different cards the first one was a 16gb SD card and the other was a 32gb SD card.

5. Through a lot of research I found a leaked way to unbrick the Samsung Galaxy S3 i9300 by shorting out the R313 chip, I'm sure you guys are all aware of this method. I opened my device and couldn't find the R313 chip. After further research I found that a user was able to locate the R313 chip on the i747m and he'd unbricked his phone with that method. If anyone can help me locate the i747m R313 chip it'd be GREATLY appreciated!

If anyone can help me out it would be great! :) I'm very experienced at soldering so if there's a method that requires me to solder I'm more than confident I can do it.

Thank you!! :good:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Keverh:
Would love to know where you found R313 on the i747m circuit board. Think that's going to be the last choice for me.

Thank you.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
Where did you find info confirming someone did that on the I747M? The I9300 is a very different device with very different hardware. Im not saying it wouldn't be possible....but I would be surprised to hear that. Can you link us to where you found that?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
Ok, I just answered similarly in another thread. Thst is for the i9300, which is a very different device from all on the US Qualcomm models. Very good chance ours simply doesn't have the same components being referred to.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdaDeweloper:
Hey guys,

actually this is a general aokp question but I don't know where such questions are posted. Since I installed aokp on my Nexus 4, I'm posting it here in the Nexus 4 board. A week ago I installed a new aokp version (based on Android 4.3). In my former aokp version (based on Android 4.2) I configured the LED to inform me about the charging state if the phone is plugged into some power outlet. So I could roughly guess the battery status by watching the LED color. Now in the new aokp version I want to activate this setting again but I can't find it. Probably it's at the same place as before but I don't know where it was. I checked out all the menus where I thought it could be but without success. I hope you can help me. Thx.

Hey everyone,

I just saw my phone said there was an update and with out thinking hit download and install. After a little while my phone turned off and rebooted but went into twrp. And when ever rebooting my phone goes straight into twrp. Im on stock and rooted with just a few things uninstalled. Can anyone help me out with what to do thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] TKO236:
Just had this happen to me to lol, spent the last three hours fixing everything and lost all my music because I didnt have a nandroid backup :(. Anyways just use this guide and revert back to stock rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2432476. You'll lose root and I think I've also lost recovery but its better than just have a $600 brick.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
I haven't seen any comments about data connectivity yet. This have the dropped data issues I'd read about with CM?

Thanks. ROM looks great.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NaterTots:
Scott, my device isn't active anymore so I can't answer that.

My understanding though is that there may be a hang up on data when switching networks. Like 3g to LTE and vice versa. An airplane toggle resets it usually.

I also saw in a different thread that someone uses tasker to turn of mobile data when they arent using it. You could probably set it to turn data off for one minute every 20 minutes or so. You'd probably never notice it and wouldn't get stuck without a data connection.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] buckhunter:
I only have lte at work so usually driving when it switches to 3g but I haven't noticed any issues and WiFi to 3g works great to

()() <--- buck tracks
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] GoblinZ:
I have noticed the connection dropout requiring a data or airplane toggle to restart. This first build was a vanilla unmodified SlimKat. Future builds will integrate fixes to these and other issues.

SlimKat is being released in weekly increments so I will keep that release schedule.

Thank you all for the feedback! :thumbup:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ocarinaz64:
Great Build

Great job on this build. I have been working on one myself, but I haven't actually gotten a successful build compiled. That aside, I haven't noticed any problems with this ROM at all. I haven't even noticed any data dropouts, although I'm not a heavy data user.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jdmsohc22:
so i've downloaded this from my phone, and from my macbook pro, and both downloads give me an error upon installation.. =/

it says set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed and than goes on about executing updater binary in zip, etc etc... anyone have a clue..?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] GoblinZ:
There were many changes to the Kit Kat builds of android to include selinux features. This requires an update to the recovery software. Please make sure to use either deck's patched TWRP or selinux capable TWRP.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NaterTots:
If you are s-on and run the ruu there is no guarantee that you'll be able to get s-off in the future.

If it's something that concerns you I'd get s-off now.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] niteNarmor:
I am having trouble achieving s-off as well. So I guess, when I get back off these two trips I'm on, I will try both ways. One using your instructions and flash the ruu then try s-off methods. Second if the first does not work then your full instructions. Thank you for your post. At least now there is a way for us S-on ppl. Lol.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Stryprod:
Search is not working right now, so apologies if this has been answered.

I'm s-off, was rooted. Installed the Captains 4.3, all good. Installed SlimKat, all good.

Tried to install adaway, says I'm not rooted. No problem, I'll toggle root for apps and adb and be good to go. Nope, still says not rooted.

I downloaded supersu 1.25 and installed in recovery, successful, reboot. Try to install adaway again, says I don;t have the binaries.

I've taken the liberty of wiping everything and reinstalling slimkat stock, haven't touched anything else.

I'm at a loss and I know it is something super simple I am missing. Please help this ignorant noob. Thank you!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NaterTots:
Not sure what to say.

If you've enabled root in dev options for apps and adb then it should work.

Apps that need root are working on my end. And I haven't flashed any SU in recovery.

On your clean flash clear out adaway in apps and also clear it from superuser in advanced and so if it registers when you open it again.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Stryprod:
Thanks for the response. I realized I was flashing an older SU version because I'm a moron. I was able to flash a newer version (1.93) and get root working on Captains ROM.

I will try wiping everything out and starting afresh with this rom, see where it takes me. I'll report back on how it goes.

On a side note, this ROM is awesome and super fast.. thanks for managing this ROM!

UPDATE: Factory reset, wiped internal SD, installed Captains ROM, rebooted. Back into recovery, factory reset, installed SlimKat, rebooted. Changed SlimKat root settings to app and ADB.. GOOD TO GO!!!! Thanks.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] grrmisfit:
is there a way to tether with this rom?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ocarinaz64:
Tethering & hotspots should work fine.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] drumwizard:
Just to clarify my own mind, if I've already updated to the new firmware via captains Rom with his recovery, I can flash this without having to install a different recovery like we had to prior to the new partition layout, correct?

Just download Rom/gapps and flash each and be good to go?

EDIT - and possibly flash su as well...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rodohmes:
Yeah, the same recovery worked fine for me, but I did have to flash SuperSU after the ROM.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] drumwizard:
Cool Imma be checking this out soon
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SilverZero:
I've flashed this ROM (and BeanStalk) straight from the new partition layout after being on Cap's ROM and after RUU'ing, and back and forth. Unless SuperSU is built-in, you'll want to have a flashable image on your SD card handy for ease.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NaterTots:
Superuser is built in.

When you first get signed in go to Dev options and enable root for apps and adb.

I've never had to flash superuser separately. But, if that doesn't work for you there is a link in the op.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] niteNarmor:
Thank you for this. I was able to find enough time to go through all these steps. Worked like a charm. Thank you for time and effort.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NaterTots:
OP updated with latest build for 2.10 Hboot.

It has a new Notification reminder in it that's pretty slick. Also DPI On the Fly included.

There are also some Blobs taken from 4.13 that [MENTION=1162986]Captain_Throwback[/MENTION] put together that will make it so your Baseband shows up in About Phone.

They can be flashed in recovery.

Be sure to Thank him for that. ;)

Phone off and charging animation isn't part of the rom. It comes with the new firmware. Still pretty sweet right?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] JManekia:
Any way to add the "clear all" button to recent app menu along with a rambar? Is there a xposed module that does this without other fluff? I know Goblinz added this mod to the earlier releases, but the latest release doesn't have the clear all button
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] numel007:
Use XBlast module.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NaterTots:
The reason Slim doesn't have it is they don't believe it's necessary. And I agree with that. It isn't even available to be cherry picked from their gerrit at the moment.

Kit Kat knows when to close an app.

If you need to close apps manually you could set your back button up to kill an app on long press if you wanted to.

Interesting.... Thanks
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zombie673:
Well done. Just got an Evo last month and the string of updates and everything since has been a bit of a wild ride but so far this ROM seems awesome. Hopefully I can stop getting the dropped data like I was on the old partition version of CM11 and DU. Keep up the good work!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NaterTots:
Glad you guys are enjoying it. Slim is the only thing I've been running on all of my devices.

Hopefully I can get a build out in a day or so. It should have the new recent apps window in this weeks that the slim team has been building.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BaumerS4:
What sort of battery life are you guys getting on this? Is it like all AOSP ROM's and just not comparable to Sense? Does the new partitions affect this at all?

I've been on MeanBean for so long and I'm afraid to repartition and lose the ability to run it again and the great battery life.

I have been known to go 17 hours on battery. That is with me making and taking about 25 calls a day and at least 50 emails.

Currently on 12hr and 46 min with 56% left.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ocarinaz64:
It seems the battery life is pretty comparable to the previous versions of Slim Bean. One of Slim's strengths is being sleek and efficient. But of course the biggest factor for battery life is how you use your phone. Governors, brightness settings, and data settings go a long way on any ROM. But even with all that being the same, there can be a lot of variance. For example, most of the time I let my phone sit, and I don't receive a lot of calls. When that is the case, I can get over 5 days on the battery. But when I'm making calls and using the flashlight I can drain it down pretty quickly. So it's hard to get a fair benchmark for comparison of one ROM to another.

As for your partition problem, it should still be possible to revert back to the old partition table if you revert to an older RUU to get the job done. Another suggestion is to try Slim Bean with the old partition layout, and if you like it, upgrade to the new partition layout. If you don't, you can easily go back to MeanBean.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] niteNarmor:
I don't know if its my device or all devices but I seem to have found either a cool feature I didn't know about or a problem. I'll let you decide.

If you double tap the notification bar, it actually puts your device to sleep.

Like I said either I didn't know it was there or it is problem. I like it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] thewind730:
It's a setting that you can turn on or off. I love it most of the kk roms have that option available ;)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] v01rider:
not that it is a big deal, just thought id ask. is the theme option going to be apart of future builds? im running slim on both my evo and my flo and have not seen the theme option. just wondering!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ADM818:
I think its in there. You just haven't looked hard enough.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NaterTots:
My understanding is that the slim Team is working on building their own theme engine from the ground up. So possibly down the road it will be in it.

I found this on the news website:

I am on build 2/27, but the app I downloaded for fast charging switching says I don't have a compatible kernel. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks for the help
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NaterTots:
Crespo is a different device than ours. Also our kernel source gets pulled from CM since this is an unofficial build. So to my knowledge that option won't work on our device.

Not sure if I'll be able to get a build done this week. It may be n next week but it will b be worth it with the n new additions they've created.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Lee11111:
I see. I wasn't sure what Crespo was. Will this be available in the future? Sorry if these are dumb questions, I'm still fairly new to the evo
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NaterTots:
Unfortunately probably not. Unless it get incorporated on the CM side which we need for kernel source to make this work on jewel.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Lee11111:
Hmm, well. The reason I ask is that I soldered a wireless charger to the motherboard where the V+ comes in and a common ground, but it only recognizes it as usb charging which isn't enough
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] niteNarmor:
Just thought I would show some battery life while we are on the awesome ROM....
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ocarinaz64:
Like I said, I regularly get between 4-5 days on this ROM from a full charge if I don't use it much. Even when I do, I normally get between 2-3 days' use out of it before it's dead.

Then again, I'm a pretty light user. I mostly use it for phone calls, and to keep my calendar / notepad in my pocket. I don't play games on it, and I don't surf the web too often. For most of that I would just use my computer anyway.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] niteNarmor:
Regardless, that's still pretty good. I use mine as a computer when I'm at work or traveling. So I am a real heavy user. My phone is faster than works computers. There email system is slow and won't take people's advice on how to fix it. So at work I use my device constantly.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ocarinaz64:
I just looked on Slim Bean's website and they say their sources are now up to 3.6. I was wondering, is there a reason we're still on the 3.2 build? Not that we really need to be that bleeding-edge, but I was just wondering.

To that regard, I fully appreciate your work NaterTots, and I would be willing to try and help out. But so far, I haven't gotten a successful build ported to this device. I think my local_manifests file isn't set up right. Would you mind sharing yours with me? Even if you do plan to make updates to this forever yourself, I do want to try and build it myself once, just for the achievement.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NaterTots:
I'll see what I can do. I just put in a new hard drive and was working on getting the build environment back up. Hopefully soon I can get an update for this.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] v01rider:
while waiting for the new update, ive tried several roms, including sense. they are all junk. yes they have eye candy, but they are intermittent. slim roms just work. :good: :cool:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SilverZero:
I've used both (actually all of the 4.3/4.4 ROMs) and I haven't had any issues with the Sense releases, visually or performance- related. Everything works. I actually did have little problems with all of the AOSP offerings, so I'm hoping the next batch will clean up the nagging issues that put me back on Sense. But I really did love Slim overall, so I'm looking forward to new builds.

Roaming control

My past few ROM's have given the option for Roam only. undel Settings/Mobile networks/System Select

SlimKat does not have this.

Is there a way to get it in the settings menu?

I spend a lot of time in shotty sprint coverage and phone works a lot better in roam only mode.

Thanks in advance!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NaterTots:
It sounds like you've been on sense lately then. I don't think any of the aosp roms have that option.

I know in the past I've used roamcontrol which is no longer in the playstore but is available from their website. It worked on 4.3 and I assume it still works on 4.4 but can't gaurantee it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] niteNarmor:
I have an issue (not that big of a deal) but when I try to uninstall a system app, let's say Torch.apk (since I have a version that will work when the device goes to sleep and the current does not) it will not install. Neither as a system app or non. Any ideas? I'm all out.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ocarinaz64:
I'm trying out Bean Stalk right now. It's a branch off of Slim Bean. It has more features and options than Slim Bean. It is also a little more glitchy, since there is more going on. Anyway, that ROM gives the following options under "Preferred Network Type".

LTE/CDMA

LTE

Global

GCM/CWDMA/LTE

CDMA + LTE/EvDo

CDMA/EvDo/GSM/WCDMA

EvDo Only

CDMA w/o EvDo

CDMA/EvDo auto

GSM/WCDMA auto

WCDMA only

GSM only

GSM/WCDMA preferred

I believe it is doing the same thing you're looking for by trying to enable "roam only". Except it's even more specific. For a Sprint network, CDMA w/o EVDO would force you to connect at a 1x speed, but if you choose CDMA w/ EvDo, then it would auto-switch for 3G speeds.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] v01rider:
is this going to be updated?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] niteNarmor:
I believe this ROM will be updated according to post #229. Just have to rebuild his environment after changing hard drives. (Fingers crossed) We just need to he patient.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ocarinaz64:
Yes, that is the intention. With full props to NaterTots, there have been some source issues recently. So be understanding if it takes him some time to get it right. I tried my best to get a build myself, but I simply couldn't get it to compile all through. It's not as simple as typing a couple of lines of code.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] niteNarmor:
Believe me when I say I know exactly what your talking about. Even though I am able to a few .apk's here or there, I can not even begin to imagine the work, let alone the knowledge it takes to compile a ROM. I give all due respect to the individuals that put in the countless hours to obtain a working, smooth ROM.
