Thanks very much for the new information. Affirmative, you don't have to care about these notifications.

However, coming from Eclipse definitely requires a clean flash.

If desired update your Titanium Backups (if you use TB).

Boot into TWRP.

Take a Nandroid backup.

Wipe /dalvik, /cache, /system (very important - now it's becoming a clean flash) and /data. If you want - and have all necessary data on external storage, you can also wipe internal data.

Flash RR-N-v5.8.3-20170608-i9305-Official.zip

Flash the GApps version of your desire (all of our devices are GApps-free i.e. no recommendations)

Boot into system - and enjoy.

Restore your applications from your TB backups.

Adjust the kernel settings e.g. by use of Kernel Adiutor.

Provide feedback of the charging time.

I uninstalled Magisk.

No more reboot and the Battery live is better.

Hi

This thread have 687 pages so i won't read all, I just ask for a few things :P

I'm using Amcha v9 4.4.4 rom with stock kernel, I have 1,5h SOT, low signal, lte not working. This rom will be much better? How longer will battery work? Is signal better? Are there any issues or everything is working fine in this rom? And does it have virtual android function keys (menu, home button, back) on screen? I saw it on screenshots and I don't like it. And which kernel is best to this rom?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] catdog2_was_taken:
In general it works fine. LTE works, battery life might not be the best you can get but definitely OK

issues: random reboots but not that often, maybe every one or two days in average; camera sometimes hangs (workaround is to kill cameraserver)

It defaults to hardware buttons, virtual buttons are only an option you can turn on.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] DJ aliasz3d:
With the correct kernel settings battery is excellent, as you can see in my screenshot I've had already over 2 hours sot and am only at 50% still. I also have never changed my battery since I bought my phone in 2012. This is running with boeffla kernel ( you can see which one in the picture) but stock kernel can achieve the same if you know how to do it considering most battery issues are caused by user settings rather than a given ROM or kernel. As well as kernel settings Make a checklist of things that drain your battery i.e launcher settings,screen brightness,location,apps with background services and eliminate or reduce them one by one until your battery drain holds on screen off, by doing this and using the greenify app no ROM has bad battery for me.

Edit: with a bright screen battery after two hours should be around 500mAh but with a reduced screen brightness or as low as possible you can see my screen only used 240mAh

Also using a dark theme

And no Gapps :good:

Edit 2: once battery got to 4% I'd had nearly 3 1/2 hours SoT running Gapps free.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] vic_111:
So i done the clean flash like you described and it seems fine, instead of 7-9 hours now charge in 1-3 hours , i skipped the TB thing because i didnt had much apps installed yet and it seems the Kernel Auditor was not necessary too but if i had the same problem i will give it a try . So thank you ;)
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] kingmateusz:
Thanks for reply. I have last question, last time when I changed rom was 1 year ago, and I don't remember, it's nesessary to wipe internal storage to install this rom? Or can I leave it without wipe? Just wipe system? On my KK Amcha v9 I have 3h sot, just changed governor to power save :)

Edit

Which gapps should i download? Platform arm, android 7.1, variant ...??

Edit2

Which wipes do in recovery before installation rom to leave internal storage like photos, music etc? Sorry for this stupid questions :D
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] vic_111:
See the quote from the post above , i did the flash with no problems with the indications on the quote :D

But i can tell you the wipe of the internal storage is not necessary so you can leave it xD

Edit: I forget the GApps thing , you can install one of the flavors you desire from the ARM -> Android 7.1 -> Your Choice, i used the nano if you want to know , the differences between the flavors is the number of applications included, but dont forget more applications = less smooth experience (in my opinion), or you can download the Aroma flavor and select the packages you want on a Graphical installer :p
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] kingmateusz:
So I will do this and internal storage like photos won't delete? It will just delete all apps and system settings, right?

Could you tell me which variant of gapps is best to download?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] vic_111:
Yup all of your photos , musics , etc will remain on the "Internal Storage".

I use the nano package because have the essential needs, i don´t like that apps like Google Music, Google .... i like install at the time i will need them and nothing more, but if you want you can always download the aroma version what have a graphical installer and select the Apps you want, Home Launchers and that kind of thing.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] kingmateusz:
One more thing, what kernel install to this rom? I have agni now and somebody wrote that agni is available up to marshmallow...
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] vic_111:
Right... About that , the agni kernel is a very good kernel but unfortunately is outdated so don´t support the Android Nougat , but the kernel from the ROM (Lineage) seems to work fine so don´t worry about that
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] kingmateusz:
Kernel is included in this rom? I thought I must install it myself.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] vic_111:
Yes it is included, the ROMs brings always a kernel by default you have the choice to install other but its not necessary.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] kingmateusz:
Ok, thanks for all, I will flash it soon :)
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] kingmateusz:
Rom flashed, now I have problem, "supersu su binary is not present this is a fatal error" what to do now? And where are themes in settings?

Aaand I have force close on every app... What's wrong?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] woodman:

I've flashed rom exactly as this instruction says.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] woodman:
Which recovery do you use?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] kingmateusz:
TWRP 2.7.0.0.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] woodman:
OK, maybe that's the culprit. Flash TWRP 3.0.2-1 and try the same procedure by [MENTION=7408621]noc.jfcbs[/MENTION] :)
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] vic_111:
That´s very weird , this ROM doens´t have SuperSU it uses Magisk (Same kind of software) instead.

I would try flash it again if i was you. But i will see if i find something about.

Edit : Wood Man is right use one version more updated of TWRP
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] DJ aliasz3d:
Sorry I was offline when you needed help? thanks to [MENTION=4752536]Wood Man[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4979374]vic_111[/MENTION] for helping ?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] kingmateusz:
Ok I will update twrp and then flash rom again. Maybe I should flash another version of gapps? I've flashed mini version and after 15minutes every app isn't working till I restart phone...
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] DJ aliasz3d:
Yeah try a different Gapps but try rebooting into the ROM after a clean flash then reboot and flash Gapps. What was your exact wiping and flashing process?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] vic_111:
He will get bored with that question xD

He followed the guide from [MENTION=7408621]noc.jfcbs[/MENTION] : HERE

[MENTION=4760163]kingmateusz[/MENTION] just to confirm you downloaded the ARM Package (7.1) and not the ARM64 right?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] DJ aliasz3d:
Yes I know noc/Schmidy's guide i have my own link in his thread ,but it sounds like a user issue not ROM and he's flashed more than once. :good:

Arm64 wouldn't even make it past recovery it would fail.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] kingmateusz:
I have used this guide

[MENTION=4979374]vic_111[/MENTION]

Yes, i confirm, I've downloaded arm package 7.1, not 64.

Let me just find how to update twrp :confused:

Edit

TWRP updated to 3.0.2-1, now i'm downloading gapps aroma and next try to flash it.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] vic_111:
Well i did some research and i not found anyone saying to flash twrp updated on twrp recovery so i will not say to try it (.img so i think not flashable anyway) but i find other method where you will need to reinstall your old ROM 1st.

After you flash the old ROM , go to the Play Store and download a app named "Official TWRP App", give the Root acess and "Backup Existing Recovery" (You know just in case).

After you done with all this process follow the GUI , "Select Device", "Download TWRP" and finally "Flash to Recovery".

Edit: I didn´t see your edit before , my bad xD

Let we the result ;)
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Oswald Boelcke:
Maybe this is useful to @kingmateusz, too. I don't know if older TWRP versions offer the possibility not only to flash zip-files but also img-files but at least in TWRP 3.0.2-1 you've the option. You always have the option to flash an img through Odin or Helmdall.

I've never used the "Official TWRP App", and I'm personally reluctant to do so. Their are a few other tools available in the Play Store to flash recovery images e.g. Flashify (the one I always use) or the wellknown Flashfire (also known as the mobile Odin).

I just wanted to make an add-on; and fully concur to your suggested procedure. Very important is the backup you mentioned. Thanks very much in deed.

P.S. Currently out of thanks for today. I apologise.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] kingmateusz:
Flashing done again, firstly flash rom, boot up system, back to recovery, flash gapps and it seems everything is ok now. Where can I find themes?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Oswald Boelcke:
RR-Nougat doesn't have its own theme engine. Download and install Substratum. Then download and install the themes you like through Substratum. To follow Substratum, I suggest to connect to this forum and its threads.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] kingmateusz:
Ok thanks. Is in this rom any app to change governor etc?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Oswald Boelcke:
No. Are you using the ROM inherent kernel, or did you flash a different one? With the ROM inherent kernel, I'm personally always using Kernel Adiutor (the pro-version). If you want to change governor profils with KA, please use the very powerful XDA search engine for some posts of @alias_ z3d in this thread, where he explained how to find the profiles and where to set them in KA. And don't forget to hit alias_ z3d thanks button.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] kingmateusz:

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Oswald Boelcke:
Which version of RR did you flash? What's your baseband/modem? Might want to collect a kmsg and to post that?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] kingmateusz:
v5.8.3-20170608, baseband i9305xxufnj1 (this is baseband?) What is kmsg?

And how to restore my contacts? I can't find an option for that.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] vic_111:
To restore your contacts (from a backup or SIM Card):

-> Access the Contacts App -> Click on the three points at the right side corner -> Import/Export -> The option you want.

About kmsg is a message from a kernel on the android to get it you will need ADB Drivers and Samsung Drivers, after you get that two installers reboot the PC and follow the guide:

- ADB Drivers : HERE

- Samsung Drivers : If you not find just install KIES on your PC just for the Drivers.

Use the .exe from C:\adb folder

- Guide about kmsg : GUIDE (Section 3)
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Oswald Boelcke:
When I started at XDA, I was reading, reading, and reading. Prior to that I used the powerful XDA search engine, and was searching, searching searching. Finally, I commenced to post...

Might be FNJ1 is your baseband? How should I be able to prove? If it's the baseband, I'd certainly go for a newer one suiting your country and your provider. I've the one stated in my signature (on all of our devices).

A search had brought you to an idea, what a kmsg is... Even some of the links in my signature but it's only on you to read, read, read, and search, search, search.

Besides the absolutely correct way, @vic_111 described to retrieve a kmsg, which normally provides clear indications why a reboot occured there's another option.

Open a terminal.

Enter following code:

su
cat /proc/kmsg >sdcard/kmsg.txt

This is going to record the kmsg on your internal storage, and it's running as long as you don't close the terminal (you're allowed to run the terminal in the background). Later you can retrieve the kmsg and post it in XDA.

Now, I'm off for today, European Champinion Ships U21 in Football are calling.

Dear specialists,

I know I sound kind of stupid to ask this question, but what is the gain in returning to the regular RR version, coming from HWC version...? Since the middle of last year I'm daily reading all posts of this (and other xda threads) to be up to date about the ROM development. With HWC version (that I use since weeks) the most annoying thing - the reboots - are gone.

Now, back to regular RR version, everybody seems somehow to be happy to have just a few reboots, even when only every now and than. Nobody really know, what are the reason /culprits: modem, bootloader, magisk etc. So why not moving on in developing the HWC version?

I'm using our device as a daily driver. For me the reason to go to another ROM (-version) that need a clean install is to be up to date with the security level.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] DJ aliasz3d:
I prefer the regular official version personally the reboots have stopped for me I think there related to network issues you can see the errors in the logcats. Also for substratum and boeffla, plus I like RR to be as is from the sources.

Its quite normal for any custom ROM or kernel to have soft or hard reboots from time to time like on cm/Los ROMs.

I also haven't had any reboots now I'm Gapps free.:)
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Oswald Boelcke:
Great that you were able to retrieve a kmsg so quickly. However, I didn't find any problems, and I assume the reason might be that the kmsg was not taken (or call it running) when/until an unintended reboot occured.

Please find here a good note by @mtr_ for what to look.

Regarding snapchat unable to assist. First, not using it, second, my device doesn't pass SafetyNet.

Two i9305 available at home. My personal one (i.e. the one daily in use) is still running on RR-N-v5.8.3-20170510-i9305-Official with custom kernel (beta3-Linaro6 by stratonz). That RR version is still in use because I've a custom kernel available with sufficient tweaking capabilities. This combinations also provides nearly no reboots.

The other i9305 is still on RR-N-v5.8.3-20170605-i9305-Official-HWC with boeffla-kernel-6.1-boeffled-HWC-stratonz-test1-LxSM_6.0-LOS14.1-i9305 as mentioned here.

Extremely good system combination but I think that this RR version even with its built-in kernel is superb. It's simply not (yet) on my personal device due to the less capabilities of the "test1" and the built-in kernel.

Regarding the reboots: I personally assume they are kernel related; however, as our devices are very complex system and most likely in thousands of different setups i.e. for someone reboots occur more often than to somebody else. Additionally, I already learnt in the past that themes can have heavy influence on system behaviour. We never compared yet who's using Substratum and with which themes. I personally doubt that the bootloader has anything to do with the reboots as it has a total different task. Magisk might be as some guys reported to have less or no reboots since uninstallation of Magisk. All of our i9305 are still with Magisk v12, and I can't confirm that statement due to the lack of reboots. But as mentioned complexity of systems, and exactly for that we are all using custom ROMs, custom kernels, and lots of other customisations.

Seems Netflix is not available anymore via Playstore, anyone else having this problem?

Or isn't it ROM related and just not available for the i9305.

I am on the 20170608 ROM.

I can restore it with a backup I made, but I am just wondering what it is...

Marshmallow RR help needed

Hi Guys. 5 days ago I installed ResurrectionRemix-M-v5.7.4-20160920-i9305.zip, the latest MM i could find (just bcause i dont really like nougat yet)

what I get from the CM camera is force closes and cant "connent to camera" known from the kitkat version of CM.

i even can use the camera restarter on it (wtf??)

how this is frikin possible? two android versions and CM still didnt fix the cant connent to camera problem?

is this serious?

btw it was a full clean install with philz touch, after a 5 file stock TW binary install with odin, so the phone was closest to stock as possible.

I was very surprised that he even replied to you, and I totally concur with his statement and was astonished about his politeness. Somehow, I anticipated nobody would answer you.

I'm very grateful to rodman01 for maintaining our pretty mature device.

Now to your issue: A search with the powerful XDA search engine in this thread had shown you not only that the problem is well known but a bit more. However, I'm not going to search for you. But I can tell you seriously that I don't have any issues with my camera; maybe because I'm using a really fantastic FOSS camera application.

Hi all,

Can anyone upload the compass fix? It was earlier in the thread but the link is dead now. My compass doesn't work on this ROM. I think it was sensors.smdk4x12.so file or something like that.

Also, what's the newest build that DOESN'T use Magisk? I've gone from April build to the latest hoping it would fix the compass but now I have other issues like Viper4Android not working. I'll restore the old version as it was OK apart from the compass.

Thanks!
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Oswald Boelcke:
Never heard or read about this issue and a compass fix. Guess it must have been prior to my time on XDA.

Can you slightly elaborate on this to allow me to search for it?

And I don't remember the latest built without Magisk but I believe this one was without: RR-N-v5.8.3-20170416
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Glenn2:
Actually I just realised that the compass fix was a really old post from years ago.

I'm back on the build you mention now (that's the one I was using until today) and V4A etc. is all working again. Compass still doesn't work though. It gives readings but they are randomly wrong. On stock ROM it works so I don't think the compass in the phone is broken.
