Check your PM

( becouse i dont want this thread to be locked) , before this escalates.

Ontopic:

Like always, for stable daily use, i advise you guys to stay on kitkat, this are preview betas.

And a lot of bugs are present, it lacks proper NFC ( for advanced version) , gesture supporting, other advance features ( like miravision,etc) .

Make sure you fully backup your system, before trying out the preview betas 5.1 LL.

Cheers
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] lolemenos:
This will be my opinion and only that.

I think that the new 5.1 for the advanced model works way faster than it does with the KitKat one.. Yes you lose some features but taking full advantage of the 64 architect is really awesome!

I didn't have one problem with the rom or random shut downs or apps closing... Everything works correct.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] superdragonpt:
Hi

Of course, its lollipop, and its FINNALY using the full chipset 64 arch. :)

But its not stable, i just want to re enforce this, since most of the guys here, are not very confortable flashing roms via SPFT, reverting back, etc.

But i understand you guys get excited, and wanna flash the betas right away :)

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] lolemenos:
yes i tend to forget that.

it's not a stable rom so only get it if you are into the experimental stuff

apart from that i am really happy to see lollipop on my newly purchased device :p

btw guys i am super busy at the moment but perhaps in the near feature i can take part in the developing process of the phone. .

i haven't used xda for a while and had to dig up this account connected with my google. Didn't even remember i had this one

edit what you mean differences? screen from other company than synaptics or just other model?

hello sir and welcome to the forums.

you can find anything you need here http://www.needrom.com/download/s3-lollipop-v5-1

i suggest though not to install yet if you are not familiar with installation process cause the rom is still in beta and so it's not 100% stable for every day usage

have a nice day

Seems the new units (white version) use an newer LCD revision.

Download MTK Engineering Mode from playstore. Entering this code doesn't work *#*#3646633#*#*

Yes they did, and it's a common practice by sellers from Aliexpress. I forgot what they wrote on the package, I think they put $11 as the item's value. 4G only from XL (band 3) and Bolt (band 40). Indosat and Telkomsel are not supported (band 8). That's a bummer since I use Indosat and I have Bolt already. XL 4G is not available at my place.

0204 rom is the official rom. It is available from China official site.

It is available for 2GB version because they use the same rom.

All 3G ram version should have come with the stock 0204 rom.

0204 rom comes without gapps.

No 3GB ram version had been shipped prior to the availability of 0204 rom, afaik.

LOLLIPOP!

Sorry. Excited! Got my S3 (3gb) sorted today with the beta 2. It's glorious. Pretty much vanilla android as far as I can tell, which is exactly how I like it. I also enjoyed the process. I'd almost forgotten about ADB! Used it to unlock bootloader and flash TWRP (TWRP is in Chinese, but it's self explanatory.) Had a moment when the first gapps I tried to flash failed as although they were 5.1, they were not 64 bit! A little search got me the right ones. I seem to be semi-rooted, need to get busybox installed.

It's glorious. Really snappy. I've not had any issues yet. Benched just under 45000 on antutu (around 40000 on KK.)

So yes. Worth the wait!

when you boot on recovery it goes black screen and restarts. at least that happens on the advanced model. Also advanced and standard version have

I'm new to Android, but I'm looking into flashing(?) Lollipop on my Jiayu S3S.

Two questions:

Is bricking still possible these days? Coming from iOS where I was able to mess around.

I already flashed a European Rom when I first got this phone, is this process kinda similar? Because i'm reading all sort of terms I don't really get.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] :
not all libraries are 64-bit and there are dex files not art
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] ProTechShark:
To answer your first question, yes, bricking is possible. This phone has a preloader, a base processing thing that let's it charge and allows it to boot and connect to your computer. If you mess this on up you are screwed, but you never really should be messing with the preloader anyway.

To answer your second queston, yes. I haven't tried it yet myself, but on the post on needrom it says you use flashtools.

http://xdaforums.com/android/general/jiayu-s3-boot-logos-bootanimation-t3079773
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] :
one would expect independency but, for one thing, recovery is certainly tied to partition layout, and, apparently, also to kernel security and/or other features (but I do not understand exactly how, but if kernel is shared between system and recovery, then for sure), and so, as it seems, one needs newer recovery for newer firmware.
