[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ModestMouse1312:
hey, my mother in law would like to run this rom on her phone, her phone is running stock 4.4.2 and is rooted, how would i go about installing a custom recovery and flashing without bricking? thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Odin. Download the tar.md5 file for the recovery and flash it through Odin.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
If you're already rooted, just get flashify from the play store. It will download and install recovery for you. Get either philz or twrp, both work well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] whbisondtr:
Is there a way to disable sound alive?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
I believe it's in sound settings, switch it to MusicFX or Viper4Android.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] whbisondtr:
Yep! Thank you

Is Wicked S6 Xperience in the kitchen?

This ROM is amazing! I can't complain about it. Are you planning to build a similiar ROM with S6 UI, like Wicked S6 Xperience?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] remotehugger:
what recovery will we have once this is flashed ?

from my VM SGS3 - jdsingle76's rooted 4.4.2 NDC - stock kernel (for now ?) ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
The same one you flashed it with
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] remotehugger:
I thought that was the case but wasn't positive - ty -

from my VM SGS3 - jdsingle76's rooted 4.4.2 NDC - stock kernel (for now ?) ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Yeah the E4GT was the only one with that crazy Recovery/Kernel combo.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] remotehugger:
ahhh ues, the good ol' E4GT (aka GS2) - my first adventure in pgone rooting - loved that phone - it was so easy to customize - anyway, barebones is updated to v2.2 as well correct ? and I could of sworn that you had a bare bones feature list as well - maybe not - just thought I saw one at one time -

from my VM SGS3 - jdsingle76's rooted 4.4.2 NDC - stock kernel (for now ?) ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
I still have my E4GT running Project X, my son uses it every day... Can't believe it's still working.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] remotehugger:
that's awesome - I sold mine for 125 bucks just after I picked up my S3 last year - will give this one to my daughter next year when she turns 9 so gotta run with my S3 for a little while longer - thank goodness for yours and jd's Roms to keep me going- and sorry I didn't realize that I just had to click the bare bones link to get to the content list - DOH !!!

from my VM SGS3 - jdsingle76's rooted 4.4.2 NDC - stock kernel (for now ?) ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] techmanc:
I installed the Wicked S5 Experience 2.2 ROM about a month ago and recently I needed to use it without any WiFi setup I have and I found out I could not access my apps due to no network connection.

Mobile data is checked on and wanted to know why my data connection is not working. I tried in a few different spots and I know I am getting good phone signal. TIA!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Try Updating PRL and Profile on Settings/System Update.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] remotehugger:
I was gonna ask where that was to update prl - I can't find settings/system update - I'm on barebones - also, can I delete all these tempovo files in the dwnld folder ?

DOH!! nvmd about the system update, didn't realize there were 2 settings icons - lol -
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] techmanc:
That fixed the problem thanks forgot to say was using Boost Mobile but I am assuming that works to hook up to any unknown network.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Yes, any file with temp in the name you is usually safe to delete
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Yes and if it doesn't, dialing ##72786# resets the network entirely.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] remotehugger:
thank you - will dialing that number also reset the network name as well ? like on the pulldown bar and in he device info ? everything is labeled sprint now instead of Virgin Mobile - also, I keep getting ktweaker has stopped working, it doesn't close but it keeps popping up every time I do something with in the app -
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
No, it won't. Try wiping the app's data.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] remotehugger:
man this is a smooooooth rom - very fast and no hiccups so far - still getting that toast notification with ktweaker app but it still seems to be working - it's retaining settings on reboots - still odd though -
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
To get everything to say virgin Mobile again flash virgin Mobile apn fix r2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] remotehugger:
anyone have trouble changing battery color with wanam ? clock,WiFi and cell signal colors change no problem but battery stays white ?

also, is this the correct apn fix ?

Universal_vmu_ApnFix-v.R2.zip
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
You have to change it to the Circle Battery to change the color.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
It's the correct apn fix if you're on virgin Mobile (vmu)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] remotehugger:
apn fix worked great - thank you - but here's an odd one - when setting my notification sound to the "3d effect" in the messaging app, it f/c's whenever I receive a text - can anyone else confirm this ???

Sent from my Wicked S3
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] 555rt:
I had to use secContacts_OSup.apk and secContactsProvider.apk from Wicked-X 8.2 to be able to assign any ringtone other than default. F/C's stopped after this.

Does anyone is getting randoms black screen?

I've been getting randoms black screen when I put my phone charging, recently. When my phone is charging and I try turn on the screen to see if I get any notification, the phone doesn't respond. But it's just happened a couple of times. I thought it was the hardware's problem but it wasn't. I've been using this ROM since april. It's the best I've used on my phone but I'm getting this problem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Go into Settings/About Device, tap on Wicked X ten times to enable Developer Options, then go into Developer Options and turn on Keep Awake.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Randy3011:
I am back!!!

Went to Best Buy end of June. Had upgrade for $1 for Sprint S5. Tried it for the past 13 days. Volume issues, two connectors for USB cable (supposedly USB 3.0 but only fits USB 2.0 ports). Battery life just as good as here. Had the old S3 powered up to have them revert everything back. At 78% I had over 24 hours still left on battery!!!

Lesson learned: Newer is not always better.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
I do have the S4 now, and the quad core 1.89 MHz processor is good enough for all of my needs (including playing PSP games) and Wicked X is killing the competition on Lollipop.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] remotehugger:
soundalive keeps stopping whenever I play music -

Sent from my Wicked S3
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Use MusicFX or Viper4Android
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] remotehugger:
installing V4A wont interfere with sound alive at all ? or is there a way and should i uninstall soundalive ? im sure there are build.prop lines involved -
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
I honestly don't remember, just search the thread for SoundAlive, I know it was discussed pretty extensively.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] remotehugger:
ok- I read that you do have to freeze it with Ti but do you know if I can just uninstall it safely ? I see its located in system/priv-app but not sure if there are any residuals left if I just delete it -

If you can freeze it with no problems then you can uninstall it safely.

can we flash boot ani's ?

Sent from my Wicked S3
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Yes, I think so.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] remotehugger:
thanks - flashed the blue TBO boot ani and It worked - you were correct - also, do you use the fast charge option in ktweaker ? and if so, are there any special settings for it ? I see that big warning in the settings for it and it gave me pause - lol -

Well guys and gals,

I went and did it. Bought a note 3 off craigslist. REALLY CHEAP! (bad esn). Did the domestic sim unlock. Thanks [MENTION=2106817]jejogo[/MENTION].

Long story short I am running MOAR ported over by [MENTION=2744265]sac23[/MENTION]. I still have the s3 and will be following along here. Even if I only keep it for wi-fi use.

I liked Wicked xperience so much when I first installed it I never got past ver. 1.0 LOL

Just wanted to say so long (but not farewell) to [MENTION=4310299]bilgerryan[/MENTION] and all the people who help make all this possible.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] remotehugger:
doesn't this like excessive usage ? it was very light usage, like this forum,some play store and g+ browsing - I have ktweaker set per this post with -25 undervolting - just seems like it's draining fast -

That has no card slot for an external or a removable battery. What made you pick that phone?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
Most new phones don't have those any more. No biggie.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wetbiker7:
I have a USBOTG so I'm not worried about space although I do wish it had a removable battery AND SD card slot. I'll just start using the cloud to store my music. That's what takes up most of my ext SD card space anyways. The phone itself has plenty of internal storage.

A buddy of mine bought the phone a few months ago when Best Buy ran the Sprint LG G2 on sale for $149 and he registered it on Boost. The G2 is allowed now. He has told me how great the reception and performance is since he's been running it. I though about getting it then but decided against it. I thought about it again, checked but it had gone off sale. My buddy messaged me again a week ago and said it was back on sale. I mentioned it to my wife last week. This morning my wife asked me if I still wanted that phone. I said why? She said she wanted my S3 and was going to buy me the G2. I said hell yeah I'll take the G2 if you're buying it! LOL. :D So there ya have it. My wife gave me an offer I couldn't refuse.

Yes NJ2 is fine with this ROM.

Did you dirty flash? The only way that might happen is if the apk is present. I'd do a full wipe and reflash from scratch.

Completely agree. I've always disabled or froze it with the last three phones I've had. It's definitely a battery drainer and continually turns wifi on even when there's no wifi connection.

Sent from my Wicked S3
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
Connections optimizer shouldn't even be there. What did you flash to get that? My wife is still running wicked s5 on her phone and its not there. You dirty flashed or didn't wipe something somewhere. I would start over with a clean flash.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] remotehugger:
it was a clean flash - idk why it stayed - also not sure why when I freeze it I lose wifi - well not really lose it but everything times out - and as soon as I unfreeze it all is fine again -

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] elgecko:
Just installed this ROM yesterday to check it out.

Had no idea what the Xposed Framework Installer was or Wanam Xposed.

Have been playing with them for a bit and have a few questions.

I was trying to change the color of my status bar symbols and text using Wanam. For some reason I can only change the Network symbol & cell reception symbol color. I turn the other items on in Wanam and hit apply, but the others stay stock white.

The other issue I'm having is changing the battery icon.

I installed xbattery themer and battery themes from here: http://xdaforums.com/xposed/modules/mod-xbatterythemer-v1-2-t2516074

My battery icon will not change to any applied themes. Not sure if Wanam settings are not playing nice with battery themer, or a settng somewhere that needs turned on/off?

Anyone have any thoughts?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
You have to change it to the circle battery in Wanam to be able to color it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jmstrat:
Hello I've been running this rom since february and it's been damn near perfect. Kudos to billgerryan. Since then I've noticed that I tend to get lower reception all the time, and the data drops to the point where I can't make basic calls sometime. I know this wasn't the case when I had the stock software on there so I'm wondering if it's a "modem" issue? I tempted to upgrade to a note 4 but the S3 just works so damn well though. Plus I have an extended battery (7200mah) so it's never dead. Everything runs fine except for this always fluctuating poor reception. It's not that I'm in a crappy spot, it struggles to get online sometimes or in maps when I compare it to my friends stock s3, and we are on the same company. I've already updated what ever I could (like PRL) but I think this is a modem issue. (Correct me if I'm wrong) If there's a possible solution to this let me know, because I just don't want to go back to stock when this phone works and looks so well!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Neitmrh15:
In case anyone is interested, I was able to install the Stagefright patch linked in the other Wicked rom thread and it worked.

Hey all

Is anyone having issues with the "bluesleep" wake lock? I started having that issue and it seems to not matter if my bluetooth is on or off. The searching I did seemed to point to a kernel issue but nothing has changed in months for me so that doesn't make any sense. "The bummer is it is keeping my phone awake almost 100%. Last night it drained at 5.6% per hour overnight. Any input as to how to fix it?

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Try Wakelock Detector to find exactly what the problem is.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] vwags:
Thanks Ryan. I did look at it and didn't see anything unusual meaning different wakelocks than usual but I will look again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
How do you know it's Bluetooth that's causing the drain? How old is your battery?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] vwags:
I don't know it is bluetooth other than the kernel wake lock name. I have let it sit after a reboot for 1 hour. Awake time 1 hour, Screen on 2 minutes. Kernel wakelock in BBS shows "bluesleep" and "msm_serial_hs_dma" both 59 minutes. In Wake Lock Detector it shows Google Play Store 3 minutes, BBS 11 seconds and everything else less. Any ideas?

Man, i am missing wicked
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bodyshop:
I wanna try the kt747 kernel with this. I know it comes baked in but I always have problems with custom kernels. My phone always froze. So I always flash stock immediately after I flash the ROM.
