Your comment is pointless. "Snapshot" it doesn't mean "Stable" and Build 17 is based on sources more updated than snapshot.

I will download it again.

About TWRP, I looked for it into their site, but for i9300 I found 2.8.6.1 only (that's mine), no 2.8.7

[Galaxy S III Android Development] elba:
this is a zip file, should I update it using TWRP itself?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] LoriOP3:
yes, from your recovery install zip and reboot recovery, update installed ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] elba:
I was able to install TWRP 2.8.7.0, and I downloaded build 17 again, but I still have the same behaviour:

it start the process till the message "Detected filesystem ext4 for /dev/block/mmcblk0p9"

it stays in this condition for a while then I see TWRP boot page and main menu again.

And, of course, no update is done
[Galaxy S III Android Development] galen2:
Seems a bad zip, download build 17 again.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ackzsel:
In archi's defence, I think build 17 is a pretty solid build.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] konohanz:
IMO ArchiDroid supported with latest Boeffla Kernel will always be a perfect combo ever :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] elba:
Sorry, but I downloaded Build zip 3 times, both from MEga and from XDA, always with the same bad behaviour descripted above.

Do you have any other suggestion to solve this?

I loaded different ROMs from time to time, but never happened somthing like this
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jackulus:
The next suggestion is:

(backup internal SD if necessary)

1. Flash last Sammy ROM via odin.

2. Flash custom recovery via odin (latest TWRP?).

Perform clean installation procedure again - I'm not sure, don't use this ROM, probably it could be..

3. Make again a full wipe (including internal storage)

4. Flash the BUILD 17 again

This "cleaning" procedure by flashing stock ROM from time to time helped in many cases.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lephoenix73:
Using build 17 for some times now, very happy with it. Great works
[Galaxy S III Android Development] whatsgood:
OK, I've tested various roms with the +3dB changes and I've come to the conclusion that this does more harm than good. It will produce distortion when the volume of your phone speaker is near full when playing a song making it sound as if your speaker is breaking, but also if you turn the volume up to full on your phone when listening through external speaker e.g. in a car this issue still occurs. I'd recommend using a 3rd party kernel that manually allows you to increase volume instead.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] galen2:
My speaker works like a charm with +3db boots, no distorsion at all, tested too in my car with car speakers at max volume on phone. Seems your speaker could be half broken, perpahs by use custom kernel to increase volume.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kippy51:
Maybe a dumb question, but have you checked the MD5 hash (on XDA download) of your downloaded roms? I've been using JustArchi's Rom since build 3 or so and even dirty flashed sometimes (also build 17), but never have or had any problems.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Hubik82:
you can try also to download it directly from github or using ArchiDroid app
[Galaxy S III Android Development] elba:
I didn't it before.

I did it now and Md5 matches, so my download seems to be fine

[Galaxy S III Android Development] sperelli:
I am using Xposed on 17.

Charming beauty, no fc, no reboots, and with MobileActiveRadioFix module

it seems the battery drain has stopped.

Only thing I am missing, is touch-2-wake. For I don't want to flash another kernel.

Great Release!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kippy51:
Don't know if you follow the Q&A-forum of this build aswell, but a junior member (@E1-13) who can't post here yet, remarked: "Can someone tell elba in the post where the rom is to wipe system, cache and dalvik cache and try to install the update again? I had the same problem installing it, and that solved the problem for me. I'm not allowed to post in the other one".

What I do when I install an update: go into TWRP, wipe, advanced wipe then wipe system, cache and dalvik cache -like E1-13 says also- and install the ROM. Then wipe cache and dalvik AGAIN and then reboot. I set up everything and then I flash the Gapps-package (for me Open Gapps micro). The rest of my apps I install later with Titanium BU pro.

This method of installing (a sort of 'clean' dirty flash) comes from [MENTION=3545504]smeroni68[/MENTION] from the JDC team of a S4 ROM by the way. Works every time! For me anyway.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] elba:
Thanks for your suggestion.

I was able to solve my problem in a different way:

I restored a previous KitKat backup using Nandroid backup.

From there, I wiped cache and dalvik and installed both build 17 and Gapps and it worked for me.

thanks for your help, I will probably use your method in case of a similar issue in the future
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kippy51:
Glad you got it working! It's a great ROM!

Great ROM guys - Build 17 very stable on my GT-i9300.

I had this problem using Temasek's CM12.1 when I did a factory reset from settings. You should be able to get the phone into bootloader mode - home+volume down+ power. Then use Odin to flash cwm non touch.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] lil11b:
He won't port any features from anywhere because this ROM is supposed to be clean, just the original cm features. Nothing more or less, something like 'hey could you port this feature from that source to this rom' will not happen unless it's required for the ROM to work. Correct me if I'm wrong :)

Since cm has its design manager, go and search on Google play store for that.

Easy rule: don't know if something is going to work, then make a nandroid backup and do it, instead of asking here since you have nothing really to lose (except time)!

This applies to themes, xposed, kernels or other things,BUT don't ever.... never post a problem related to that or the ROM when modifications are applied.

EDIT: Nevermind the below. As th phon is for my dad, I should rather start with some stable ROM. I am switching to ArchiDroid thread now.

Hi,

I recently got one Galaxy SIII, decided to set it up for my dad and trying to find best ROM for it now. That's a helluva reading, gotta tell you. This ROM looks very interesting. I have a question tho:

- When I get all prerequisites (like custom recovery, root, odin) can I flash rev.17 straight onto stock 4.1.2 (Orange PL), or do I need to flash some different ROM first and add the build 17 one?

Nice stuff, but not working with cm-12.1 YOG4P

Hey JustArchi,

this is nice work, I'm currently using this to modify the kernel to work with Kali-Nethunter.

The build doesn't work since some days.

This is caused by a change in 'android_server_FingerprintManager.cpp', which isn't reflected

in you android_hardware_libhardware (fingerprint.h needs to be adjusted)

I don't know if this is the only error, cause I'm rebuilding right now.

Btw: replacing /drivers/net/wireless/ath with the sources from original 3.0..31 kernel makes the

ath9k and ath9k_htc modules work, which is fairly interesting in terms of using it with nethunter.

The smdk4412 sources are messed somehow, if you reenable the ath9k Makefile.

With bet regards MaMe82
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Sources are synced when I build. You can sync yourself anytime you want.

I synced them just now for you.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mame82:
[MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION]

I don't understand how you mean sync... I used 'repo sync' this raised the issue, because latest CyanogenMod/android_framework_base isn't working with last ArchiDroid/android_hardware_libhardware because of changes in hardware/libhardware/include/hardware/fingerprint.h which aren't reflected in ArchiDroid... how do I have to sync to circumvent that?

exchanging fingerprint.h with the one from

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CyanogenMod/android_hardware_libhardware/stable/cm-12.1-YOG4P/include/hardware/fingerprint.h solves the issue
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mame82:
Do you mean removing

<remove-project name="CyanogenMod/android_hardware_libhardware" />
<project name="ArchiDroid/android_hardware_libhardware" path="hardware/libhardware" remote="github" />

from roomservice.xml before synchronizing, to use the original CM Source?

Thanks again for updating your repo :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
No, I mean forking my repo, syncing it and using yourself. If you remove my repo and use CM's instead, you'll get faulty build with non-working things. Which may not even compile.

Need your help again:

Problem 1: The build runs till creating of recovery.img which is too large now - is the whole smdk4412 kernel used in recovery? If this is the case it could maybe fixed by changing some new builtin drivers to modules, but I'm not sure about this and my build-times are >3 hours...a hint would be nice before retry.

Problem 2: I need to integrate to firmware files, which should go to /system/vendor/firmware in final image. I've tried to use proprietary-files.txt for this (after providing the firmware files to vendor/samsung/i9300/proprietary/system/vendor/firmware) but this didn't work. Could you give a hint how to integrate them?

Thx in advance
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
1. Then you screwed up something, make sure that your manifest matches the one found in OP. Although CM might changed something, I didn't build for a week.

2. I don't have time neither willings to teach somebody how things should be done. Take a look at proprietary_vendor_samsung.

Not necessarily true, you can also "slimify" system32 folder if you know what you're doing :)

I'm always removing some bloatware (better to say - things I don't need in CM, it doesn't have too much bloat), and never had problems with stability of the ROM. I made a list of safe to remove apps in CM12, but cannot find it in my posts history.

I can make it again if anyone's interested :good:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] mame82:
Okay you helped somehow, even though you haven't the willings ;)

1) Indeed kernel grows too large, because of using builtin driver instead of modules - changing to modules makes recovery.img build again.

2) The file where the copy instructions for the firmware blobs should go is vendor/samsung/i9300/i9300-vendor-blobs.mk

Thanks to your work I was finally able to build a rom with hid-support, wifi injection and drivers ath9k based alfa wifi cards. It works like charm with nethunter and is based on latest cm on an old i9300. Seems my rPi isn't needed anymore
