---------- Post added at 08:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:40 PM ----------

How do I do this? I'm kinda new to Android

tried to copy the file with ES file manager but it failed with error saying something about read-only file system
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Mount as R/W in the menu
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] turbozapekanka:
Turned "Root explorer" ON and it worked

Unfortunately, it did not help, Polaris office still crashes
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Did you change permissions to 0644 and reboot?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] turbozapekanka:
yes I did (with ES explorer, set permissions to rw- r-- r--)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
OK, then I don't know what problem is. That was the only lib that wasn't present.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] turbozapekanka:
here is full error message:

Any ideas?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
It's because the device is listed as klte (S5) in bulid.prop change those back to d2spr (3 instances near the top) or delete the asserts from the updater script of the zip.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] turbozapekanka:
worked, thanks!

attaching a file in case someone needs it
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] turbozapekanka:
Hi

I've noticed multiple tempoVo* files are created in Downloads folder

any idea what app is it related and how to disable that?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
No idea. It has to be an app other than the stock browser. I have no idea what you have installed so there's no way of telling.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] neondev:
If I install the new nd8 modem required for this rom, will I still be able to restore nandroid backups created before the nd8 was flashed? Oh, and great looking rom by the way, I am hoping to install it soon!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
No, you need to install the full ND8 tar with Odin. Yes, you can you use MK3/MK5. I don't know about earlier firmware.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wetbiker7:
You could update to NJ2 too. This ROM runs great with it as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
And the NJ2 tar doesn't wipe your data.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
Its the super downloader that does that sometimes. I forget why but it does.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] turbozapekanka:
I uninstalled it. but not sure if I did before the files were created.

anyway, I removed the files, will see if they reappear
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wetbiker7:
Barebones!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
What's your average battery life with barebones?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fuzzybuffalo:
You always have such great looking screens. [emoji106]
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wetbiker7:
I'm using a 7000mAh Zerolemon and I get great battery life out of Barebones. With standard use (a lot for me lol) I can get at least 2 1/2 -3 days. If I set it up for minimal battery consumption and stayed off my phone there's no doubt I could get 5 or 6 days.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wetbiker7:
Thanks Fuzzy. :) I love making them.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wetbiker7:
Here's 1 more for ya Fuzzy. The Punisher! LOL. I love playing with these things. There are soooooo many options.

openvpn bug

can someone confirm openvpn works my stock 442 has the "sorry due to a known bug in this version of android it is not possible to gain permission to open a vpn tunnel"

thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
That would mean it doesn't work on KitKat, judging from the statement.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] edb:
well its a freedompop s3 with their own rom and i would assume they might have altered it in ways to limit use same with hotspot etc , so its hard to really say without an actual test from someone running openvpn . thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fuzzybuffalo:
Dang, how did I miss this post. :o

This one is great too, the one I really liked though was, you had a Beautiful Widgets blugel clock and Platinum Icons. :good: :good:

Edit: What Icons are those, in the Punisher?

Edit2: And the Icons from Barebones above?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wetbiker7:
Punisher icons- CR- Red

Barebones icons- 7null Icon pack.

The dock background is from a dock pack.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fuzzybuffalo:
Thank you Sir.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wetbiker7:
My pleasure. If you ever have any questions about what I'm using just ask. I'll be more than happy to share the information.

Another thing to keep in mind is that many of the launcher themes can me used with one another. I use the ADW EX launcher and many of the other launcher themes (Apex, etc) are compatible with it. ADW lets me mix and match different parts of the other themes which I think is awesome. It's a lot of fun seeing what I can create in my spare time. :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] black_out78:
updates

So there are no longer going to be any new updates for this rom?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
No, I have the S4 now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] black_out78:
would it ?

would it be too late to call the s3 dead? i cant find new roms for the s3 anymore.....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Soooperstar:
I hate to say it but I think so. I'm thinkin about moving on to the s6. We had a good run, longer than most phones. And they still sell it surprisingly
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cwhatever:
I will be here for a good while longer. This phone does everything I need it to do. I even have a spare sitting here incase this one breaks. Seems like I was one of the last to leave the prevail and will be with the s3.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fast69mopar:
SGS3 not dead for me

I will be continuing to use my S3 as I have a backup S3 as well that's bone stock just in case this one with the Wicked S5 Experience from Ryan takes a dive. I love the S3 as my daily driver. It's a solid device in my opinion.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Soooperstar:
Don't get me wrong it's a great phone and I still run Wicked X as my daily driver, just not much development going on for it anymore for new ROMs and looks like it's at the end of the road for firmware.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fast69mopar:
SGS3 not dead for me

It does appear to be the end of the road for firmware. I have not been here at xda for very long and I'm still learning a lot of new things about ROM's and development. I have learned a lot of great things from reading bilgerryan's threads and posts. I hate to see things like the S3 die off but it's the evolution of technology. I'll eventually go up to the new S5 I have sitting at home but not just yet
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fuzzybuffalo:
Great, I've been going with the minimalistic approach lately, but your screen shots got me thinking about changing.

I just set Next Launcher Gestures to open everything I need.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fuzzybuffalo:
I was using an old scratched Matte plastic screen protector and just put on a Glass screen protector, I had forgotten how good these S3 screens really look.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Yeah I got one of those super cheap for my S3. My one for the S4 is on the way. I think they're great. And apparently blast proof.

I will continue to support my ROMs but there will not be any updates for this ROM. the_original_teknikl is almost done with an update to Wicked X, he will continue to support that ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wetbiker7:
LOL! I just swapped out a matte protector for a clear one. Huge difference. The matte just kills the screen quality. Haven't tried the glass ones. May have to give one a try.:thumbup:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
No bubbles. A little thicker. Feels like no screen protector. You have to clean it more often than matte but the screen quality is a lot better.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fuzzybuffalo:
Oh yeah, love the glass.

Using them on my S3, S4, Nexus 6 and a 7 inch tablet.

Have not scratched one yet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wetbiker7:
I've been using Tech Armor and they're pretty good. The matte is hard to see outside but the clear ones are great. I've got about 8 clear ones left. They should last me quite a good while .
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fuzzybuffalo:
Yeah Tech Armor is what I usually use also, they sell glass ones too, though they are usually a little higher priced than other glass ones.

The glass ones are so good I will never buy another plastic one, unless that's all I can get. The difference is amazing.

[MENTION=4310299]bilgerryan[/MENTION] do you have something wicked coming to the S4? How do you like it? Is it the T model? Are you using sprint, boost, virgin, ting? Thanks. Enjoyed your work on the S3, thinking about following your work on the S4.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Yes. I love it, it does everything I want it to and it's blazing fast. I had the T model but they all kept coming up financially ineligible on Ting so I ended up just getting the regular L720 model after seeing the Spark network wasn't going to be in my area any time soon. Ting.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
I miss you already Ryan, currently I'm learning how to edit TW on the T model so we have at least 1 rom based on stock...

Has anyone tested sending a photo with NFC?

It does not work for me. Looks like it starts the communication and message "Touch to beam" appears, but the photo is not sent.

Tried both ways from and to another phone running CM 12.1 using this tutorial http://support.sprint.com/support/tutorial/Use_Android_Beam_Samsung_Galaxy_S_III_16GB/40803-1445-2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
It's probably because the other phone is on AOSP.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Soooperstar:
Works fine for me
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
S6 Launcher Theme

Install with file browser (or just tap the notification when it's done downloading)

https://www.dropbox.com/s/2ygcfpy7tm1xitc/com.sec.android.theme.S6-1.apk?dl=0
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
I currently have the S6 Ringtones, Notificationtones, Alarms and UI sounds if someone wants to help me make a flash able for them ^_^
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Just take the ND8 VR Template from post #3, unzip, and insert the files in system/media/sounds/ringtones or whatever folder they go in (notifications, ui, etc). If the folder isn't there then create it, just make sure it follows the correct path to where you want the file to go (capitalization and spelling matter). Then go back to where it says META-INF and select all folders (system, VRtheme, META-INF), then hit Compress (normal compression) and Ok. You now have a flashable zip. This can all be done using Root Explorer (I can't say if it works with any other file explorer) from your phone for making almost anything flashable.

Need help! How to flash Rom from CM 12.1??

I get stuck at the samsung splash screen and can't get any further. I tried to format /data, /cache, /boot, /system, and /modem after reading a previous post about formatting ALL internal coming from lollipop to Wicked.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
In Philz Recovery (the only recovery supported for this ROM), go to Mounts & Storage->format /data and /data/media. This must be done every time you flash a Lollipop ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
If your phone is flashed to another carrier, I do not know how to help you.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] edb:
its all messed up now . first i flashed this it worked fine but no 4g connect . then i flashed sprint nj2 update now im unrooted . working on that . i did a bunch of fix 4g stuff now it wants me to activate via 4g that dont exist . its a mess

i will give that a shot im doing the stock now looks like my IMEI is gone folder that is supposed to have the info is empty and its stuckin activation not completed prl and profiles fail . ##72786# rebooted the phone not sure what it did now in hands free activation fail .
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mattzeller:
Since you're on Touchwiz, call your carrier to troubleshoot your issue, they should be able to get you straightened out
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fuzzybuffalo:
Any time I have this many problems, I had to odin back to a stock image, usually fixes everything, then I start over.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Soooperstar:
Sometimes just willing your internal sd will fix issues

Edit: wiping
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] edb:
willing your internal sd? looks like i have a efs tar from nandroid . can that just be restored or placed in the efs dir?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Soooperstar:
Oooops wiping
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wetbiker7:
+1 on using Odin.

In many cases I've found it takes less time to Odin the stock tar and do a fresh install than trying to troubleshoot pesky problems.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] edb:
well i ended up calling them and had to reprovision the phone was fun being off the radar while it lasted new number id etc . thanks for the help
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] sander999:
OK so I have a annoying problem with my phone ever since I flash this awesome rom every time I reboot my phone I get lot of force close apps and my phone goes black can't use it in less I reboot and clear delvic and data then reboot it works fine and also I wanted to take my phone in for repair when I try to flash stock rom it doesn't boot no matter what I do and only works on wicked s5 any help much appreciated thanks an advance
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] sander999:
Thank you for the quick reply do you know what stock file I should use i was on ND8 stock before flashing wicked S5 ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fast69mopar:
ND8/NJ ROM

You will need to Odin the stock ND8/NJ2 firmware. You can get it from Sammobile.Com I think there is a link on XDA as well to download the firmware.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Either ND8 or NJ2... The NJ2 tar won't wipe your data or internal SD which might make things easier.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wetbiker7:
Hell yeah! Barebones baby. That's what I'm talking about.

Edit: I've been using navigation and the phone a lot. Mostly Internet over WiFi. The battery life with this ROM is amazing.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] thenugdestrroyer:
Ryan do you think this will work on my n3?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
It might... you'll need to rename your current Accuweather Widget and Accuweather Daemon (put .bak at the end so if it doesn't work just delete mine and rename your backups)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Deth4all:
I really like this.. thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tommy_2q:
This ROM is smoother on my s3 than my stock rooted note 4.. Awesome work Ryan.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Cmicasa the Great XvX:
I seriously wish U would have gotten an S5... I would love to have this Rom on mine
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] rktdoc:
ROM works great but have a serious bug with the media sound control, it automatically reverts to minimum.

You open settings to increase volume, and it keeps playing the default music sound it will not quit after you make the adjustment.

Any ideas on how to fix would be greatly appreciated.

Other than that this is one of the two best works I've ever seen in past 6 years of flashing different roms.

Great job!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wetbiker7:
[MENTION=4310299]bilgerryan[/MENTION], have you had anyone mention any issues with the Google+ app force closing? It's happening on Wicked S5 and Wicked X. I don't use the app often and I thought it may have just been a bad app install. I've uninstalled and reinstalled twice on both ROMs but I'm still getting FCs. I've wiped cache and dalvik between new installs too. The app will open and I'll get a FC pop up. The app will open afterwards but full FC after a few seconds.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
You must have a bad download, there are no problems with volume nor any mentioned with over 1,000 downloads.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] rktdoc:
OK thanks will try again.

Will it need a full wipe or just flash dirty and then clear the cache?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
You can try dirty... just make sure you check the md5sum.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wetbiker7:
Yeah man. That's what I thought. I keep up with both threads pretty well and I haven't seen any posts regarding that issue. Just thought if I'd missed anything about it, you'd be the one to ask. Looks like I've got a little troubleshooting to do. LOL!

Oh! One more thing. I decided to go ahead and try flashing back to the ND8 modem from NJ2. I'm on it now and everything is running smooth. Just wanted to post and confirm I've done it with no ill effects. I looked around and it seems like everyone who had flashable ND8 and NDC modems posted have pulled all their links. Thankfully I have both.

If any of you are running the NJ2 modem and want to flash back to ND8 or NDC modem just shoot me a PM. I'll be more than happy to share the flashable ND8 and NDC modems with you.

Does anyone have a link to the stock kernel for this?

Thanks

sent from my Wicked 4.3 hybrid
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bodyshop:
Thanks, but I doubt the kt747 is the stock kernel. My phone doesn't like that kernel. Freezes before I can change the settings to stock. So I need the stock kernel.

sent from my Wicked 4.3 hybrid
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
You said stock kernel for this, so it was assumed you meant this ROM. I think its in this thread, hard to say where. I'll check to see if I have it. Stock for sprint, VM, or boost? You gave no details at all.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
They're in General, both ND8 and NJ2, as stock kernels are not considered Development (I think Odin tars should be in General too).. ND8 has a permissive version, NJ2 does not.

Link in OP not working? Is NJ2 okay?

I would really like to try this ROM. I have a couple questions, before I start my first new ROM for Samsung. (I've flashed HTC Thunderbolt several times and RazrMaxx a few times, finally getting brave enough to try the S3)

From what I've read the NJ2 and ND8 are very similar. Do I need to down to ND8 before starting?

Also, when I click the link in the OP for Wicked S5 Xperience v 2.2 I'm brought the the 19th page of this thread and I cannot find the download.

I'll continue reading as to whether sd means the internal SD card or my External card. I've seen lots of confusion. And with the Razr, I was with Verizon and had to use safestrap and partition my card in order to do anything. I haven't seen anyone in the Sprint S3 world talk about anything like that. I'm not missing anything, there, am I?

Thanks so much
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fuzzybuffalo:
NJ2 is fine, the title of the thread lists NJ2

[ROM][ND8/NJ2][4.4.2] Wicked S5 Xperience v2.2 [Updated 2/19/15]

On the 19th page, post #941 shows

Download Link:

Wicked S5 Xperience v2.2

The Wicked S5 Xperience v2.2 is colored text, on my PC its yellow, that's what you are supposed to click.

Or just click this... https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934531440

As for SD, you can put the ROM file on either internal or external.

No such thing as Safestrap on Sprint.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] leeco:
Thank you! I got so caught up in reading the posts I that I forgot the title. And, thanks for the link as well as the SD info. Much appreciated. I had backup devices with my other phones. For this one, my only backup is an iPhone 4s that my husband teases me about. (He has an i6+) Don't want to go there. Being extra cautious, I guess. Already did my Onandroid backup & backed up all my docs, pics, etc., and changed my ROM manager from CWM to Philz. I think I'm ready to go. Oh, Titanium backup. Almost forgot. That's next. Will be trying this ROM out very soon.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Just a suggestion from the dev of this ROM on Titanium Backup. Only restore data on apps that you actually need the data (like games) restoring data on some apps can cause more harm than good, especially if it's just to avoid signing in. I would say 80%-90% of your apps you only want to restore the app and not the data.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] leeco:
Wow! Thanks so much for taking the time! With that in mind, I can only think of one app that I might want to restore the data on. Lastpass helps me log into most of my life and a lot of my data is linked to the various online accounts so no poblems, there.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] leeco:
Okay, nerves set in before I actually made the leap. I read a few posts/threads about having dual boot on this phone and I enjoyed having this on my Razr. I kinda like the idea of having my stock ROM still on here, as well. So I began searching but it hasn't been talked about in several months and the posts I found all seemed to involve different ROMs and TWRP. My Philz is CWM . Is this something I can do with the S2 Xperience? Is it worth trying, in y'alls opinion? And if you thick it might be, would I need to start with one of those ROMs to get the dual boot set up, first? Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
Just make a full backup, if you don't like this ROM just restore back. Don't think there is any working dual boot for this phone.

Or try one of the lollipop Roms, heck, try them all!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] leeco:
I did it. S5Xperience is pretty! I lost data though. When I go to settings I see mobile data is checked but only while I'm on the activate this device screen do I see that I'm getting data. I've turned off the optimizer function but when I open anything that needs data my phone tries to go to wifi. I flashed the kernel from the OP wiped cache and dalvik rebooted with no change. I backed up my apn but having to use hub's phone to even make this post. We have the worst internet and told us it would be down completely for the next 12-14 hours. About to go to McDonalds for some wifi-maybe a yogurt parfait, too. Any suggestions? Thank you!
