Hi everyone.

Just flashed this ROM yesterday. Came from cm 13 beanstalk ROM.

Followed the instructions at page one in this thread for installing a new ROM. Clean flash with Pico Gapps.

Baseband version i9300XXUGNA8

TWRP version 3.2.0.2 I think (latest today)

ROM version 2.2 (latest today)

Just havent tested everything until now, but i can tell you:

- flashlight works

- WiFi, 3g , SMS and calls work.

- batery life seems even better than my previous ROM during use and even overnight by letting smartphone on but cleaning all recent apps. Only 1% consumption overnight. This batery is almost 4 years old now and i have another one but phone is still hanging strong :)

- root is working by activating it in developer options.

- had to download another file explorer since stock one won't get root access to external SD card.

- memory management works OK for me.

- batery charging time seems the same.

- earphone sound is working OK,... Just can't seem to notice any changes using the audio FX app included.

I don't have another phone so the s3 and this ROM is my only daily driver and looks good.

OK guys and girls, the ROM looks and feels very nice and fast. I would like to thank everyone involved in the development of this ROM, thanks a bunch!!!!!

Now, i will post some screeshots after this work week so i can show some numbers to you guys and maybe comment on any issue.

Thanks again.

Cheers ! :good::good:

Edit : is there anyway to get rid of root icon indicator in upper bar without disabling root on developer settings ??? Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kippy51:
Reboot into recovery, use TWRP file manager to delete '.secure_android' file/folder from ext. SD card. Then standard file manager works

Root icon: settings > crDroid settings > status bar > untick 'SU icon' :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] makina22:
Done that and worked flawlessly.

Thank you very much for your help:good:

Hi friends

I use this ROM(with stock kernel) daily for more than one week and I thing This ROM is better than other I try before

battery life is very good, fast charging and more than 6 hours 3g data use (with 4 years old battery)

No crazy random boot

No freezing, hanging or errors

No camera errors

good call sound quality

I face Just one little problem that after call ending network die for about 5 second ( I sure this fixed in next build and I wait for update)

I love this ROM and recommend this strongly

But I like to ask if bufella kernel make it better, which build you suggest?!

Thanks a lot ???

If you ask on this Boeflla forum you may get help from the users of this ROM that also use Boeffla.

In download page of Boeffla kernel he specify exactly what kernel for what build version you can use

Just do some careful reading ;)

Sorry was not for you batics

That's a different issue.

Here in this case, S3 works fine with normal wifi devices or access points, but hangs with other mobile's hotspot.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
My point is that it will very likely be a Lineage issue.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] richyg81:
How can I switch System Profiles more quickly? e.g. quick settings, or power menu

Currently I'm having to open settings and navigate to System Profiles and then change. I recall having this in power menu before in another ROM which was really handy. I really like this ROM so hopefully there is an answer to this. ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] imboy25:
anyone also experiencing very sensitive / weak signal reception? in my place, 3g is kind of weak but 2g is consistent. however, in this rom on my s3, even 2g is so weak. thanks.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] makina22:
Nope. Signal is OK. The only thing is that right after ending a phone call, the signal goes off during 5 seconds or a little more and then comes back.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] eurotubes:
As for the 3G, same on my side. 2G is always at 100%, super stable and working fine. 3G can't get more then 50% and consumes all the energy very very fast - you could watch even if mobile data is disabled. This problem was introduced on my device long time ago. 3G stopped working correctly somewhere with android 6. :-/

[Galaxy S III Android Development] MacLeod100:
Thank you for your work and keeping our belowed S3 alive This update fix that annoing bug (especialy if you have a second call whaiting ) " no network " after finishing a phone call ? and the usb - PC bug ? :confused:

I made a clean install of crDroid 2.3 last night.

The ROM appears to run very smoothly.

The two new Lineage features:

Google Assistant

Single hand mode

Both work.

I am not quite sure what functionality the single hand mode feature adds to a device with a small screen, but getting Google Assistant to work -- given the Store version requires 1.5GB of RAM -- is impressive.

One day I will have to try understand all the options in developers options.

I have only received one incoming call since installation and the signal loss at end of call bug in LoS did not appear. Hopefully it is now fixed.

Gratitude to the developers of Los and crDroid.

We stuck.

Thank you and sorry for breaking the rules.

Google Assistant works brilliantly on this ROM.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Samofr:
I mentioned on other threads that on Galaxy Grand Prime 530H 7.1.1, whatsapp video call works perfectly. And btw my mum is using it right now. This issue seems i9300-related, and not a bug in the rom.

Long press home button, Google Assistant pops up. I can ask for example the current share price of a listed company and I get an instant answer.

Snap chat works good :)

Video Call on wassapp ( i just try to see if camera is working on wassapp and it did ) , viber or fb messenger i didnt try on my to do list :p
[Galaxy S III Android Development] oae08:
Guys what is the average screen on time you are getting? The only down side is I'm having heavy battery drain. Other than that rom works perfect
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
I wiped system, data and caches when making a clean install of crDroid 2.3, rather than dirty flashing from 2.2.

The gap down a short time ago was caused by creating a new TWRP back-up in Recovery.

I use a 1 year old Samsung stock battery. I use power saving when not using the phone.

I have a toggle setting for battery saving in Quick Settings.

crDroid gives the best battery life and best performance and stability I have ever had on my i9300.

I used Google Assistant quite a lot yesterday.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SMRS007:
Settings crash

The settings app crashes whenever i try to open CrDroid Settings.

Please suggest a fix, if anyone has found a workaround.

If you seriously seek help with your ' ... issue ...' you need to file a bug report including a logcat.

Hi. Sorry for my English. CrDroid is very great Rom. Can you include call record in phone? Thank you!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Elton47:
Same, looks like you disabled omni switch system app. Enable it and you can access the crSettings again.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Syoenth:
what custom kernel have you installed with this ROM? Boeffla it's still a good choice?

[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
TWRP have released a new Recovery for the i9300.

The major change this introduces is the ability to back-up directly to a connected PC.

It can be flashed using the Official TWRP app found on playstore.

has anyone encountered a problem where the rom by it self runs smooth and fine but when gapps are installed, they keep crashing, all of it and the phone is not useable at all. "setup wizard keeps stopping" it says.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kippy51:
No problems here. Maybe try another gapps package? Did you check MD5? I always use Pico.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
You have to flash the ROM and GAPPs together before you reboot.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] guntlet:
I tried 2 different Gapps. I was fine couple of days ago and my phone went "encryption error" all of a sudden, I had to flash stock firmware to be able to use my phone again. the stock firmware runs fine, the rom on it self runs fine its just that when I flash gapps as well its stuck on "setup wizard keeps stopping" on a black screen.

I do that, I just flashed the rom alone to see it was the rom or the gapps that was the problem. the rom on its own is fine so it must be something with gapps but I have tried 2 different gapps as well.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kippy51:
Which ROM and gapps are you trying to flash? Which TWRP-version??

Sent from one of my Sammy devices
[Galaxy S III Android Development] guntlet:
I have philztouch 5.00 flashed for recovery.

Trying the new 2.3 (I was on 2.1 before with mini gapps) I have tried every possible combinations. the only thing I haven't tried is the recovery I guess.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
You have to use TWRP!

If you need help with installing that, let us know.

If you cannot access your device other than in recovery, you can flash TWRP using Odin connected to a PC. If using Odin you need the tar download.

You can download TWRP from here

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Jack123hello:
I'm trying to install v2.3 now, and hopefully, things will not be as bad as those on 6.0.1. Given that S3 only has 1Gb RAM, I have no idea how well can it handle nougat...

I'm currently running 4.4.4 and I really want to try nougat out...

Edit: By the way, does this ROM support F2FS for /data, /system, and /cache?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Samofr:
Nougat LOS is far more stable than KK (at least for me). Ram management is perfect and smooth. Battery drains a bit more but you can use greenify and wakelock blocker
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kippy51:
I wouldn't recommend using anything but ext4. There have been lots of reports that files got lost etc. And the speed advantage is almost nothing.

Sent from one of my Sammy devices
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SMRS007:
Yes, I realised that after I reinstalled my system to restore all system apps as I had deleted many, including both the Omni Switch and Omni Style.

I have always done that with every ROM but this is the first time this happened.

Thanks!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] oae08:
That's great hope it will release soon for our S3

I want to install substrate themes, which supports OMS or legacy?

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Jack123hello:
I use OMS for substratum because it is using OMS v7 in crDroid v2.3
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
Nicholas Chum released a Rootless version of OMS on 5 March. The next release of crDroid, designated V.2.4, will include Rootless OMS.

OMS7 Rootless

V.2.3 supports legacy.

---

So, what's new:

* r25 release merge

* OMS-rootless - faster and better.

* Weather tile with lots of customization (OmniJaws)

* Improved slim recents.

* Added Easy toggle for location.

* Fixed "partial screenshot" and "full screenshot" assignments via smartbar.

Cheers! Have a happy weekend. :)﻿

Compared to v2.3 battery drain has increased in v2.4
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
It takes at least two reboots and 24 hours to make such an assessment!

For me the drain was so fast couldnt wait for 24 hours.. lets see what others say :eek:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] baltics:
As always I clean installed the update and restored my Apps using Titanium.

Having used it heavily since the install this morning, I have not noticed any difference in battery use c/f crDroid 2.3.,

crDroid 2.3 battery use was excellent.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Jack123hello:
I've been using v2.3 for 48 hours, and the battery is a lot better than before (2.5 hours SOT)

However, installing substratum themes makes my phone lag AF(it took me 5 mins to uninstall all themes because it just freaking lag). But the performance seems better than CM11 and the animations are a lot smoother than before.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] avishek83:
U mean to say u are using v2.4... the latest version we are talking about...definitely v2.3 is great...but we are trying to find out if v2.4 gives the same battery backup...or its me who is having increased battery drain

Los based Crdroid rom is the best thing that has happened to our S3..very stable,,very smooth..and very few bugs..the only major thing i wish to get fixed is the video calling on whatsapp, viber etc

Is these images from v2.4? As for me, v2.4's battery drain is less than v2.3

Hi to all I had installed this Rom it is working very good quick and fast, but please I want to make a silly question, perhaps I am missing something, when I try to make a call I open the dialer I press the number then I press the green dial button, the dialpad is going down the phone I had called is ringing and I cannot find a way to hangit up, in the rom I had in the past I had the options during the call to mute record or to hang up the call I was doing , what am I missing?

And a second one is there a way to change wallpaper in the lock screen only?

Thanks in advance

When you install the Apk it will open and function as an App.

It will be automatically installed in the correct folder for an App.

If it works for you and you want to make a 'system app' we can work out to do so.

Edit

It is quite easy to make it a system app. There is a clever new App created by an XDA contributor called "Root Essentials' . It is on Play Store. Install it. Give it all necessary permissions. When the App is running go to Storage/App Manager/Phone (being the App created from the Apk)/ press to open/Tools/ move to'System'.
