Tested the interim @Moster2

Hi [MENTION=4604352]Moster2[/MENTION],

I tried dirty flashing your interim upload and found the below aspects:

Before Flashing your interim ROM:

My 3G data working because of 3G Fix flashed previously

My Wifi working due to already working in Alpha 4 version

My stock camera working due to flashing of Camera commits previously

I had already flashed Archi Kernel 1.6.3 R4P0 after alpha 4 installation

After dirty flashing your interim ROM:

No bootloop on first boot. Phone upgraded apps and finished boot.

My 3G data not working (I will try flashing the fix)

My Wifi working !! However, from quick settings 1st time on-off works then it remains off. I have to manually connect from settings->wifi

I removed some of the stock apps with ES file explorer like : File manager, phase beam, black hole etc, cell broadcasts.

My phone rebooted twice don't know why?

I thought that it is the initial launcher problem: I cleared app data from Settings->Apps->All->Launcher 3 (cleared cache, data, force stop, ->exit )

After lockscreen activated (auto screen off), again reboot. so thought it was launcher problem

So as soon as phone rebooted, i immediately went into settings from quick pulldown, stayed for a while without letting the screen turnoff and the phone did not reboot. I quickly exited settings and went into playstore to install google now.

Making google now default launcher fixed the lockscreen caused reboots.

Now the phone is stable and lockscreen does not give any reboots.

Have flashed camera commits to use stock camera. and the phone is working fine.

Will use the phone for a day and observe battery, and other things. Then will think of flashing AK 1.6.3 R4P0 and 3g fix.

Hope this run was of some help to you.

Thanks for the amazing work [MENTION=4604352]Moster2[/MENTION] [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION] [MENTION=4898097]arter97[/MENTION]

You ppl rock :good:

Worked fine for me, had to do a full clean of system, caches and data, but no issues installing. WiFi, data and GPS work great now. Thanks ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kjivar:
Kudos!

Hi!

New member here. First of all i want to thank the devs for making this possible. Awesome stuff, thanks alot!

I've flashed the CM12 and archi kernel. No problems except some difficulties with 2g/3 gdata. Flashed the RIL.zip and that helped. My phone was noticably faster :)

Now I'm gonna switch back to Kitkat to try out some more Roms. And perhaps wait for the official 5.0. I have one question tho:

Can flashing of the RIL.zip affect the system when I install a new Kitkat ROM somehow? I've done a factory reset, wiped system and data, dalvik cache (I know 5.0 uses ART but I thought I might do it anway) and formatted the internal SD card.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] HectorAguirre:
What Gapps are used with this rom, where can I get them? What recovery is used to flash this rom? Thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] flykthewiz:
No you'll be fine back on kit kat
[Galaxy S III Android Development] depecheguevara:
do u guys using stock kernel or r3p0 kernel?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Deadpool:
I have the same problem but my phone reboots every time screen turns off
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lil Geeky:
Just keep WiFi on it won't reboot
[Galaxy S III Android Development] dreamaddict:
The new camera FV-5 2.31 version can utilise android lollipop, I tested it with this ROM, RAW capture and manual shutter speeds not supported with our device, but real time ISO display after focus and improved image quality works. Saturation, sharpness and contrast of images can be manually set.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Ahmed*IQ*:
You DONT But me and so much peoples need to do this because if we flash cm12 without cm11 we gonna get into a boot loop !!!

plus me if you had a boot loop with cm12 :good:

if you dont belive us.. i can make a video and show you that i get a bootloop on a clean install like alot a ppl..

if you want a vid just ask and ill make one
[Galaxy S III Android Development] user1911:
At the very first beginning of trying out Lollipop roms, my device also bootlooped. So i used Odin and flashed a (pre rooted) Samsung stock rom including repartition the whole device. So maybe, you wanna try this out. ;) Just like JustArchi and many others already told you before...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] broyer10:
ill try that :) :D

just for my info (*when downloading the stock rom from sammobile, does it include the (repartition thingy) cuz to be honest with you i dont even know what that means :\

---------- Post added at 09:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:16 AM ----------

can you do me a huge favore ? can you send me a download link to the stock rom pre rooted ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] rascal0pl:
No.

Yesterday I installed it on my friend's phone, directly from 4.3 stock rom.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
There is no prerooted stock. Stock is stock. You have custom 4.3 prerooted. Dont't worry about repartition,Odin will do everything for you,just sit back and relax;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] broyer10:
:D thanks :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PriteshChauhan:
Hi [MENTION=4604352]Moster2[/MENTION]...

The ROM is running smooth.

Occasionally lost network may be due to my location and then had to reboot. After rebooting the phone, the problem of reboot on lock screen turn off again got recurrence. Hence had to uninstall the launcher 3 by using es file explorer. Keeping wifi on didn't help as suggested by someone in earlier threads. Uninstalling the stock launcher did help and thereafter a few manual reboots and locksreen turnoffs did not trigger any random reboots.

Secondly to my surprise, data is working all by itself. As I mentioned earlier I had flashed the data fix on my alpha4 installation and not on 11-12-14 installation. Your ROM was dirty flashed directly on alpha4 without any wipes or clean. Yesterday data was not working and WiFi had to be manually connected . now that's not the case.

Thirdly I am running on stock cm kernel that came with the ROM 11-12. And the battery is great. Yesterday night it was 79% after flashing and testing and morning was the same. I full charged the phone to 100% and its 7 hours of normal use with an hour of calls an hour on WiFi and data and right now its 64% as of my writing.

Home button wake works. Guest user enabling works. Calls work flawlessly. Signal updates full and null both as is the condition.

Great work folks..

:good:

Will keep posted on more observations.

---------- Post added at 10:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:03 AM ----------

Install Google now and make it default launcher on first run. Then go to settings-apps-all-launcher 3. Delete cache, delete data. Force stop and if possible disable. Before rebooting uninstall the stockl launcher 3 with any root explorer. And then reboot. I did the same and its working now flawlessly.:D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] user1911:
Technically true. So lets say i used a custom rom based on a Samsung stock 4.3 rom, which differs only in the feature of being pre-rooted. :D And i flashed that three part custom rom with a .pit file and the Re-Partition option activated:

Odin Settings

Before you mess around with your device. Maybe read and do this:

Backup efs partition
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lil Geeky:
where is the link of pit file ... and i just flash the pit file in PIT and stock rom file in AP without any thing in BL/CB/CSC ?

and can any pit file flashed with any stock for any country ?

is this pit file for 16Gb I9300?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] RoelD92:
A couple of things i noticed so far:

Alpha 4 = rock solid

The new build by [MENTION=1350613]MONSTER2[/MENTION] is causing soft reboots everytime my phone screen turns off. Same happens with the 11th december build in the other thread. Could be in CM sources or something you added?

When i dirty fllash the build from the other thread (10th december) i still have perfect working WiFi. However when i clean install his version, WiFi only works after every reboot. So basically after boot, Wifi works. Then turn wifi off and you can't turn it on again till you (soft) reboot. [MENTION=1350613]MONSTER2[/MENTION] was right about the WiFi problems in 5.0.1 (never doubted you of course :o)

Conclusion: Back on Alpha 4 and staying there with ArchiKernel :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ayoubij:
How many times we should say.

1.ODIN to a stock 4.3 rom.

2.Root

3.Flash this rom

Simple as 1.2.3 its not this roms fault that you are outdated.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Scorpionea:
U are good member here but please don't put your head into the sand and act like there is no errors...

This boot loop issue is not just from this thread it also happens on Note 2 cm12,galaxy s2 ect... So you see GS3 is not the only one..

And that is why some people need for some strange reasons install first cm11 then 12.. Even monster2 has released test version for bootloop with no success so far
[Galaxy S III Android Development] user1911:
The test version from [MENTION=4604352]Moster2[/MENTION] aimed at the size of the system partition, as far as i remember the code changes on github
[Galaxy S III Android Development] marenp:
I dont know exactly how many times i flashed cm12 and i never got a bootloop. Even moster2 update working fine. Clean for new ROM, flash rom, gaaps, ril fix and it working fine.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Grimzee:
I will agree it is quite strange some people need to flash other roms before this one. From the times i've flashed this i never got a bootloop and i did the usual factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik, flash rom then gapps and it boots for me fine. Is this what people who are getting a bootloop are doing? Just curious

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lucas_Gachoka:
awsome rom....i got boot loops at initial flashing but a dirty flash seems to work fine for me too
[Galaxy S III Android Development] achkap:
Really there is no point in arguing about bootloop. The most of us here are experienced in flashing roms so most of us know what to do before flashing a rom. Lets just accept that some phones bootloop and some dont. Besides as Archi said no log or it didn t happen. So until someone provides a log lets continue our report on this great rom. Again sorry for ot but we have overtalked about bootloop

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lukijs:
Im just curious? Does anyone who has bootloop issues are using arters recovery? Or same ol philz

Use twrp recovery for overcoming this problem.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] aaminotti:
People, lets explicite the procedure with the name of the packets that used.

I come directly from ArchiDroid 3 and every time flash of CM12 works well.

I used:

Recovery: philz_touch_6.48.4-i9300, Wipe for new rom, then flash with:

cm12-20141211...

Archikernel_v1.6.3-AOSP_R4P0

Fix_camera_cmmct_5.0

ril.zip

Fix_3g_by_and_sd...

then boot and:

pa_gapps-micro-5.0-A..

done. Boot and all works

Maybe cleaning the internal SD helps too.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Zwulf:
I would LOVE to see such video. Please create one!

I'm 99% sure that it's one of the following reasons: old recovery, wrong Gapps, no proper wipe.

Such a video would prove that. If not, I would be really surprised...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] aaminotti:
Good idea, less errors.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] blackyz:
Even i never got bootloops flashing this..dont know why people getting bootloops

that can be only possible with wrong recovery/gapps/or improper wipe.....

PS: i have used TWRP latest.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lukijs:
umm, ril.zip is 3g fix, so why are you flashing other 3g fix too?

---------- Post added at 06:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:17 PM ----------

I think so too, cm12 and nameless. if I'm correct, isntallations are block based and that might have something to do if you are using older or incompactible version of recovery.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] deovicchristian:
did that... no result :) still bootloop

edit: twrp 2.8.1.0 wipe and format cache, dalvik, system, data, internal storage, flashed with/without gapps from https://s.basketbuild.com/gapps :) why ? :(
[Galaxy S III Android Development] aaminotti:
I believe til its for phone calls

I mean "same here" like: "I've used TWRP for overcomming problems," because it was mentioned in one of the first [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION]'s posts in this thread..

Maybe is my english only bad and i dont get at first, what you meant :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lukijs:
fixes 3g too, thats the only one I flash and it works.

---------- Post added at 06:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:54 PM ----------

try arters recovery https://s.basketbuild.com/devs/arter97/S3/kernel/xda/recovery/, newest of course
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kriss1151:
Well, I flashed archi kernal and still no mobile data :( any idea guys tried everything
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lukijs:
kernel wont give you data:) ...search ril.zip ..and also use archis r4p0 kernel
[Galaxy S III Android Development] frankyzah:
+1 the best for the battery is arter97 kernel
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ayoubij:
Best battery life is with the kernel that comes with the rom which you didnt even try probably
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lukijs:
archis kernel is best battery life : D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kriss1151:
Flashed both but still nothing :( really racking my brains but I genuinely have no idea lol
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lukijs:
really weird basically ril.zip or other 3g fix, fixes data.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] deovicchristian:
Just used arter's recovery... Still no result :( but i think i found something while "clean to install new rom" there is an error while formatting preload partition it says something like error make_ext4fs and dev/block/mm...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] aaminotti:
Try format preload partition, if not, maybe you need to flash with ODIN an Samsung Rom and start again.

Did as you said working for you, manage to get google now launcher and removed launcher3 but still getting a reboot when device turns off, seems that like someone posted before, that if i leave wifi on it helps.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Ahmed*IQ*:
OK Here is my tools :

1.A Rooted Samsung Galaxy S3 I9300 (international)

2. I Tried the latest cwm and didnt work , Tried the latest PhilZ touch and didnt work , Tried the latest just archi recovery and didnt work , Tried the latest TWRP and didnt work !

3.Every Time i want to install ANY Rom i Wipe The data , cache , system , preload , internal storage and dalvik cache !

And What i get is a bootloop....

I am doing EVERYTHING in the RIGHT way !

Now | [MENTION=4315611]Lukijs[/MENTION] | tell me about the tools that i use , Are they old ???????!!!!!!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] RoelD92:
Had soft reboots with wifi on in that build. Seems unrelated but i could be mistaken.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] casujo18:
Did u try install cm11 first?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Ahmed*IQ*:
Yes i do dude i know that its working with cm11 flashed but i just want to explain to Lukijs Because he says that i me and some of the other people use an old tools.

so i want to show him my tools and ask him if our tools are old. BUT i am sure that my tools are the latest !

By The way , Thanks for the advice but i know about it :o
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cookiepuppy:
actualy you might be right, i noticed that it worked only until i reboot my device, it seems like it was working cause when i turend wifi off, it didnt soft reboot by itself, then i decided to check if this hold after i reboot myself. i left the wifi on when i reboot but immidietly after the device was up again it soft reboot unless i unlock the screen and turn wifi on and off, so i guess this trick is not holding. it also happened when i let the device sit for few min, with screen off, and wifi on . so i can't even guess what might be the issue. maybe systemUI (just throwing a reason).

other then that all the rest was pretty ok including video playing profiles, gps, wifi, data, most common apps was working fine and signal icon.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lukijs:
Arters recovery 4.0 beta 2 , wipe factory, then again choose "clean install new rom", wipe cache and dalvik/art cache.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] RoelD92:
Hmmm. I am now on alpha 4 being happy so not going to try that trick. Could it be a deep sleep issue? With wifi on, device staying sort of awake. With wifi off, device going in a (too deep) sleep?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] broyer10:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Ahmed*IQ*:
Can you Give me the link to Arter's Recovery 4.0 beta 2 ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] flither:
That's funny cause I'm using latest TWRP (2.8.1.0), and Alpha 4 is working fine after cleanest clean installation. I doubt our S3s are different on a hardware level, so I bet it has to do something with bootloader's version or small differences in partitions filesystems/errors (?)

i am sooooooooooooo gonna make that video . cuz you know why ? i just flashed stock rom and did repartition... and then i rooted my phone. installed twrp latest recovery ... wiped internal SD , wipe cache , delvik , and what not .. flashed cm12 the new build [MENTION=1350613]MONSTER2[/MENTION] put up, flashed gapps .. the 0911 one.. booted up! and ! got bootlooped -_- yay :D (2 hours of my life is gone for good :D )
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mostafa Wael:
sadly i am facing troubles with my phone

whatever ROM i am on, it boots up and then after some usage it just locks the screen, if you unlock it, it will totally shut down and keeps on showing the "Galaxy S III" for a while and then black screen in a loop manner

i tried arter97 kernel and boeffla kernel, it is the same

i flashed the ROM again (DN4) and tried to moving to ArchiDroid 3.0.0 and moving to ArchiDroid 1.7.18, it is the same

i guess it is a pure hardware problem! maybe the NAND chip is worn out :(

so sorry about that guys

but that may be the end of my S3 life

You need to ODIN to a pure stock 4.3 unrooted rom. This will fix your problem then you can root the phone again and flash roms happily without troubles

Please do include in the video, that you odined to a stock 4.3 unrooted rom and ill bet you anything if it didnt work

I bet the only thing missing is that you never odined to a stock 4.3 unrooted rom
[Galaxy S III Android Development] broyer10:

Great Job Guys

just downloaded the latest build on github, running flawlessly, although the aroma apps didnt install, guessing thats being worked on, cant believe how smooth it runs, 3g and wifi tethering worked perfectly out of the box at 260dpi (edited build.prop) and no FCs yet. This is an amazing rom, seems i will be sticking to my s3 for another year.

i dont understand how some people are having bootloops, came from archidroid 3.0.0 kitkat and installation went perfectly using twrp and archikernel, i did have a bootloop on alpha 3, but reflashing somehow fixed it. i suggest flashing to a stock 4.3 via odin and seeing if it works thereafter, other than that it just might be that the hardware is slightly different on our phones.

Whenever u face connection error with camera just open the app

And your camera will work fine

App just restarts ur camera module not whole device
