TWRP 3.3.0-0 i9300

Format data & advanced wipe

FireHound-4.9-UNOFFICIAL-20190624-i9300.zip

open_gapps-arm-8.1-pico-20190711.zip

I've installed 20 apps.

Usage: Internet only.

OK, so after couple of days, this ROM works rather stable

for me

. Just like I've said earlier, security updates are old (October 2018). Overal performance and battery life are average (PixysOS V1 Oreo ROM for S3 is faster - probably because is VERY slim, and LOS14.1 has better battery life).

This ROM has so-called "Ashes panel" which contain a dozen or so options to customize. But unfortunitly for me, the ROM itself and the panel lacks option to remap hardware buttons. So, there is no working hardware "recents apps" button, which is bad news for me. But there is option to turn on the navigation bar, where it is possible to set "recent apps" virtual button.

Unfortunately, for me, the navigation panel is broken

. This bug is weird. After I turned on navbar, and reboot the phone, 10 seconds after the system was loaded, the screen went black... but the touch panel was still working!! Because when I pressed power button for 2 seconds, the vibrations told me that the menu appear, and when I blindly pressed "turn off" option (I didn't see it, I just knew where it was), the phone turns off. I thought I'll need to flash this ROM again to get rid of navbar, but somehow I was able to get into the control panel very quickly and disable navbar before screen went black. I don't know if it's only broken on my phone or on other S3s too.

Anyway, this was the most serious bug I've encounter while testing this ROM. Apart of that, like I've said before, when I browse settings, sometimes (very rarely) I got error: "settings are not responding". And also one of the two built camera apps (not that black one) sometimes is acting crazy, like when I tried to take a panoramic photo, and the camera went nuts and started to snap pictures on its own! LOL. It was soooo funny, and also scary LOL.

So apart of broken (for me) navbar, I guess this ROM is OK for daily work (

for me

), I'm using my phone for: browsing Instagram, Facebook and VKontakte, using Chrome and Google News, checking weather and play store, sometimes for maps and GPS tracker for walk/bike, sometimes to listening to DI.FM radio, taking photos and videos, and some minor operation on files. During these few days, I never got sudden reboot or freeze (and I have not installed "go mode"), also no overheating. :good:

SMS configuration

Hi, I've installed yesterday the ROM and it works flawlessy so far but I've not find the way to configure device to Send/Recieve the SMS.

It's not a matter of SIM because the same SIM on another device works as aspected.

How to set/configure the device for the SMS service?:confused:

Regards,

Marco

Random reboot

Home button not Wake up while display off
[Galaxy S III Android Development] deentky:
I came back to this ROM and I noticed that RAM management with android_lowram_enabler AKA "go mode" is much worse than without, which makes the ROM unstable. This is weird, because it's not supposed to be in this way (I guess). Maybe this "go mode" is not optimized for S3, maybe there are some conflicts, I don't know. Maybe my phone's broken (I doubt it!).

All I know is this, without "go mode", even with heavy load and switching between apps, each one was stable. But with "go mode", the amount of RAM drops veeeeery quickly, and apps become unstable, which leads to reboots.

I'm monitoring RAM with app called "RAM Monitor", it has flowing interface, so I can see exactly how much of free RAM is available at any time. When I installed my set of apps, and I used them, after a few hours, with "go mode" it was only 100-150 MB free RAM, and if I started to open apps, they started to be unstable. So I've cleared out everything - made a clean ROM install, then I installed everything again, and without "go mode", under the same conditions, it was 250-300MB :eek: Yes, that's twice. I've checked it all out a couple of times. This is not a one-time observation.

But it all really doesn't matter :( This is the same as the Viper v5.2 Oreo ROM.

With "go mode", no sudden, itself reboots, but very unstable behavior of some applications, bad RAM management.

Without "go mode", the system can reboot itself at any time, but the apps are working fine, very good RAM management. Tonight, late at night, after just few hours of working, it started to reboot to recovery mode.

So that leaves me with PixysOS V1, which so far is the most stable Oreo ROM for S3 I've tested. Probably because it's so incredibly bare bone :D

Hi, I've just installed this ROM and it's working really well (better than any other I tried on the S3) but the call screen doesn't work. I can still make and recieve calls but the screen is black the whole time so I can't use speaker or keypad during a call. I can't even hang up. Any idea how to fix this?

Thanks,

So i bought this refurbished note 8 (SM-950U) T-mobile varient.

at first everything ran fine until i signed in my google account, thats when the phone starting doing random stuff, like opening playstore and downloading apps without notifying.

well that was the least of my concern, when i tried to update my device, it gave an error "Processing failed" as it failed to register the device.

This is what is in my device right now.

AP: N950USQS4CRE1

CP: N950USQU5CRG7

CSC: N9500ZZH2CRD5

AP and CP seemed ok as both are from the same models, but that CSC file is from SM-N9500 model and as far as i know that is from chinese region and from dual sim models.

The next thing i tried was flashing it through odin with stock firmware that i downloaded from Sammobile.

The files i download are these "

Build date:Thu, 26 Jul 2018 04:01:45 +0000

Security Patch Level: 2018-07-01

Product code: TMB

PDA:N950USQU5CRG7

CSC	:N950UOYN5CRG7 "

cant post the links here

i tried to match atleast the build number of my device to the files i downloaded.

After loading the file in odin, connected my phone (turned on debugging mode and removed all of my accounts),

<ID:0/004> Added!!

<ID:0/004> Odin engine v(ID:3.1303)..

<ID:0/004> File analysis..

<ID:0/004> Initialzation..

<ID:0/004> FAIL! (DeviceInfo)

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

<ID:0/004> Removed!!

so after researching the internet i found that there were reports of malware in samsung devices in certain regions, and i am certain that i have got one in my phone, so i am really scared to put my passwords or data in it technically rendering it useless.

i cant return the phone, so im stuck with this.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] deentky:
In the meantime, I've read some feedback from other phone owners, who use PixysOS ROM, and it turns out that this is a very, VERY minimalistic ROM, with very few things to customize. Well, it's not a big problem, I'm just missing a few things to customize, that I've used in other ROMs. I'm gonna test it for a few more days. So far, this ROM is stable and fast.

PixysOS-1.0-20190623-UNOFFICIAL-i9300

AEX-8.1-RecentApps-Fix

Open_gapps-arm-8.1-pico-20190706

I've installed 20 apps.

Usage: Internet only.

First impressions, after couple of days:

It's a very minimalistic ROM, with very few customization options (which could be a good thing, depends on the individual's preferences). Privacy and security settings are absolutely basic (e.g., you cannot set which installed apps run in the background or run with the system startup etc., I miss that cool LOS panel). There is no way to remap hardware buttons (and you can't wake up the phone by home button). Some customization options known from other Oreo (and even Nougat) are almost non-existent, for example status bar, main screen has also very few settings, no LiveDisplay, no system profiles, alarm is not functional (looks like a bug) etc., that's not a problem for people who don't need it. The GPS sometimes is pretty lazy, but eventually it works somehow. Battery operating time is... acceptable, I thought that despite all this minimization, it would be better, with moderate use, battery lasts one full day, which I don't think should be a problem (and fortunately I didn't discover any suspicious battery drain during sleep mode). Oh, and unfortunately the security updates are almost a year old! (September 2018), so apparently this is the final version of this ROM.

This Oreo ROM is quite fast and stable (

for me

). Every other Oreo for S3 GT-I9300 I've tested, had noticeable performance and stability issues, but this one is kinda different. RAM management is OK. Stability was also OK, no sudden freezes, reboots, no overheating etc., I had only one problem - sometimes I experienced the same thing as with other Oreo ROMs - slight performance drop (I don't know why), and the phone had to be restarted, it happened every 2-3 days, so it's not a big deal I guess, I tried to install "android_lowram_enabler" (aka GO mode), but I'm getting "error 4". Also, just like with other Oreo ROMs, I had weird issue with Instagram, some videos in stories didn't play and live stream doesn't always work as it should (no such problems in Nougat).

Overall,

for me

, this ROM behaving quite stable so far, I'm also surprised at how fast it works. It's rather good for daily use. But LineageOS 14.1 is still better for me.

Format data & advanced wipe

Viper-i9300-20190629-v5.2-UNOFFICIAL.zip

open_gapps-arm-8.1-pico-20190712.zip

I've installed 22 apps.

Usage: Internet only.

My observations after few days.

This ROM is very similar to the Team InFusion FireHound v4.9 Oreo 8.1 ROM, for example (when it comes to functionality). The main advantage (for me) is the option to remap hardware buttons :victory: and the ability to wake up the phone by home button (it's important to me because it's uncomfortable to press power button if I'm using dedicated powerbank), it also has the option (in dev options) to kill apps by pressing the back button for a while (it's helpful to me, sometimes I have to use it). On the other hand, I miss one small detail - possibility of placing the date in the status bar.

Secutity updates are from March 2019.

This is where the good news ends :(

Unfortunately, this ROM is rather no stable

for me

.

During these few days, the phone was rebooting itself few times in completely different scenarios, sometimes I had to remove the battery, because it didn't responding (it was hanging on the boot screen). It also reboots itself to the recovery mode :eek: which is the same as with ViperOS V6.5 Pie ROM, it was described here by another user:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=79898907&postcount=12

After installing the "GO mode", this ROM has become unstable even more, I don't understand why. I constantly get an error telling me that the "setting are not responding", and I need to restart it. So I uninstalled "GO mode", but the problem has remained. I couldn't get to the settings :( at all.

It's a shame, because it looked good.

Thanks.

With fresh install, "go mode" is working properly. I had "error 4" again, but it just irrelevant information, patch was applied successfully, I checked in terminal with "getprop | grep low_ram", and everything is OK, "go mode" was enabled.

This time I'm not going to touch anything in the Kernel Adiutor :D

I like this ROM, it has probably everything I need (as for Oreo) :good: I hope now there will be no more problems with self-rebooting.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] hgunduz295:
ı hope tooThank you for liking the rom
[Galaxy S III Android Development] deentky:
Well, after couple of days I can tell that "go mode" didn't help me. This ROM keeps rebooting itself. For example, I can't browse the Instagram for more than 5 minutes, because amount of RAM drops below 100MB and the app starts to stutter, which ends with reboot. Some weather apps behave in the same way.

I didn't have that kind of problems without "go mode", which is weird. Although the phone sometimes rebooted itself, but the stability of the apps was fine.

So for me, it looks like this: With "go mode", no sudden, itself reboots, but very unstable behavior of some applications, bad RAM management. Without "go mode", the system can reboot itself at any time, but the apps are working fine, very good RAM management. I'm monitoring RAM with app called "RAM Monitor", it has flowing interface, so I can see exactly how much of free RAM is available at any time.

It could be more than just a matter of RAM memory.

Either way, is no good.

I have similar observations about the FireHound v4.9 Oreo ROM.
