[Q] Questions regarded Sprint Touchwiz Jelly Bean 4.1.1 Leak - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

I have a question regarding the new Jelly Bean leak ROM. I went through the official thread before posting, however if I missed something, I am sorry for the redundancy. Since I am under the 10 post minimum I cannot post in the official thread.
My question is when my phone is locked I usually press the lock button to turn the screen on to put in my pattern, however when the screen lights up, the edges flash blue and red for a quick second. If I remember correctly there's a LCD screen test that produces these affects. I was wondering if this was normal or just a glitch found in the ROM. Or do I have a setting that needs unchecked/checked?
Thanks in advance for any and all responses.

i seems to be happening to a lot of people. Some think its at fault due to Touchwiz Launcher. I use Apex Launcher and haven't had that problem with the phone since I flashed it.

I am still on LIG and I have never noticed this on my phone. I think this may be somewhat unique to LIH. Which version are you on?

Whew, good deal! I was a little worried I went about flashing the kernel, modem, and rom wrong. I'm new to all this as this is my first smartphone lol. Thanks for the input, I'll try playing around with different launchers and see if that helps. Appreciate it once again!
Edit: Currently I'm on everything linked in the OP of this thread Neil Fruit

I'm on LIH. Haven't seen the flash yet. So hopefully that helps you, if not, change modems.

GPS Signal Broken -- Fix Found

Hello all,
Long time lurker, just wanted to share an issue I had.
I've flashed nearly every ROM that is out there since I got my SGS3 and have never had any GPS issues, however this weekend I used it without a problem but Tuesday all of a sudden turning it on and off still produced nothing...not even the increased battery drain from having GPS on.
Here's what I did in hopes that it can help someone or at least give some knowledge as there wasn't a lot out there when I searched:
1.) Restored a previous Nandroid that I knew had a working GPS --- Result = FAIL
2.) Searched XDA and Google...found a video with some USSD codes for the dialer, etc.. ---- Result = FAIL
3.) Pulled battery and sim card, etc... --- Result = FAIL
4.) Flashed Wicked as I know that is a stable and highly used ROM. Everything great but still no GPS. ---- Result = FAIL
5.) Found a suggestion about clearing cache in google framework, Maps and uninstalling Maps updates. Result = FAIL
**however Play Store wouldn't let me update Maps when I rebooted as it said it wasn't compatible with my phone. No clue why.
6.) Finally I decided to do Triangle Away and Chainfires unrooting procedure to get back to unrooted stock. ---Result = SUCCESS!
Not sure what about it made GPS come back, however the next step will of course be to root again and see if there are any issues.
Hope this helps someone who ends up in my situation. Feel free to PM if you need more details.
Thanks to all
Edit: Just as an FYI -- when I rooted again, GPS was still back and I've had no issues since.
Thanks man, I like threads like these because you never know when you may need them. Same issue for me. On CM10 ROMs,I have trouble locking onto GPS, and the fix for me has been downloading GPS test and running that before using something like navigation.it's a minor inconvenience but it works great
Overall, if you have something borked, no matter what rom you use... no matter how many times you wipe... odin back to stock, should fix it always.

True, but honestly, that doesn't always work. I have a second SGS3 Pebble Blue 32GB, and it won't play nice with Lean Kernel/Ktoonz, unless it's the touchwiz based kernels, whereas my white 16GB runs all of them flawlessly. They were rooted and booted the same way, and they both have the same GPS issue.
Out of curiosity, what's the chainfire way of going back to stock?
Also, do we have any guides here/on youtube that detail how to odin back to stock. I'm gonna give it a go on the blue one again/cross my fingers hoping I made a mistake, hence why I want a guide lol! *Searches*
thanks for the info jpk17!
saved us a lot of time here for whoever has that issue in the future.
can you provide the link to Chainfire's unroot procedure?
thanks!
Good to know but youcould have got straight to the point rather than writting five pages of useless stuff then saying something that to be honest is not any special invention anyways.

Kind of a **** huh? He was just explaining what he did. Geeze.
Sent from my SGS3 Stock Rooted & Odexed
I love this thing!
The only time my gps was ever messed up was when i used a sprint leak JB rom and had the gps turned off. Flashed a couple roms after no gps whatsoever. Odin'ed with 2 or 3 different versions and still couldnt get the gps back.
Finally I flashed another JB rom based on the sprint leak and turned GPS back on and everything started working again. Lesson learned on using sprint leaks lol.
Had op's problem myself before, and full wiping and Odin'ing back to stock actually didn't work.. what did work though was after full unroot, doing tmo ota update.
Who knows, this info could help someone out as well..

Confirmed working
This fixed my GPS too. Triangle away and then flash stock NON ROOTED firmware and GPS will come back...NOW hopefully this fixes my weird battery life too. About to root again and shoot right back to PA android and see if it works there. Wish me luck
Edit. Yup it works. Went straight to pa android

Ok so i finally unrooted using above steps. Still no gps. Tried GPS Toolbox, GPS Test and the google navigation. Nothing.
What Im seeing is that the little Icon in the upper status bar never shows. Like ether it doesnt even see a SAT, or the receiver in my phone isnt even turning on.
If i cant figure out, i guess ill go back to Tmo....
Thanks for the help.
What I did was go to a stock ics based Rom then triangle away and then I followed the site that op posted. The download was ridiculously slow. Took like an hour for 690mb. That should do the trick. Do it in that order

HAHA funny, i actually did it EXACTLY like that. I tried a stock ICS ROM from wildchild and nothing. Then Triangle away, ODIN flash to stock with un root and factory reset and nothing.
If i wasnt getting lock, that would be different. But im not getting the little Icon in top left corner.
I have a friend with a Stock Sprint phone and his works in same room.
Thanks
Sucks cordell... Sorry you're not getting it working.
Only thought I had if I followed you correctly is you said you went to a wildchild stock. Maybe you need to go back to the older stock from the link that worked for osmosis and I?

I went to wild child stock just before i unrooted and went to Stock Tmo form the guide above. I didnt think that would have made a difference.
Im not gonna root and go to store, so ill go to store and see what they say.
The reason i went to the wildchild stock based ICS rom was hope that I wouldnt have to unroot....
Thanks.
EDIT>>> Just did the OTA from Tmo and back .. Yes GPS back,

[Q] AOKP (KangXperiaProject) 4.1.2 on XperiaS [BUGS]

Hello people!
I have not long been using AOKP for very long, but i can say overall i love it, i have a few issues though.
I am aware of course it is a unofficial ROM and to expect it to run perfectly would be ridiculous and i was hoping if anybody had experienced anything similar and had any solutions?...
- My headphone jack has 100% stopped working since installing is ROM, i even reinstalled an old backup of MIUIv4 and it was working fine so it defiantly isn't the hardware.
- Black screen notifications, if i received an IM like whatsapp or even a SMS my led would light up and the screen backlight will turn on but its just a black screen?
- Fail to unlock screen first time around, now this doesn't happen all the time, maybe 30-40% of the time, but ill press the unlock button... the backlight will turn on but again its just a black screen, so i have to re-lock and unlock again and it will 100% work the second time... its kind of annoying.
Other than that the ROM works fine for me, i really don't want to lose the JB OS... is there a stable alternative maybe? or hopefully a simple fix.
By the way is based on their latest build.
Thanks!

RE: Task & Ktoonsez 4.2.1 ROM...

RE: Task & Ktoonsez 4.2.1 ROM...
I...absolutely...adore...this ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766684
But it's uber buggy.
I definitely understand that you're going to have bugs in a cutting edge ROM. I just wonder what the status of this ROM's development is and there's no way I could go through the seventeen thousand plus replies on the ROM's thread.
2 things:
1 - Is there any way to fix the messaging issues (it says nothing ever sends when it does), the unlock screen issues (I have it set to not have to hit enter to unlock but I have to anyway) or any of the other things this ROM does? Is there an update in the works?
2 - If there's not a way to fix these things, is there another 4.2.1 ROM out there that is less buggy yet?
I desperately want to run this ROM as a daily ROM!! The lock screen widgets, the camera, the stock messenger amongst other things...it's just so GOOD!
Any help, info and/or words of wisdom would be GREATLY appreciated!!
Thanks!!

Considering that this ROM just got released two days ago, you're not going to have to read through 17k replies. Maybe the last 15 pages or at least from the date of the release and all your questions will be answered. Probably within the first few pages that you read.
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda premium
Dude, you have about 2-3 small bugs to complain about and you think you can't run this as a daily ROM? Come on, if you care that much about being bug-free then you should probably just stick with the Stock ROM.
or you could read the change log in the op
1 - Hey...as long as they are WORKING on the ROM still, I'm good. I'll keep checking for updates for sure. Can't wait!
2 - I knew someone would give me the "well...this is so new, you're stupid to ***** about it" reply. Knew it was coming and thank you for that MDX. I KNOW it's new. I KNOW it's going to have bugs. And, a partially functioning messaging app is anything but a "small bug." That's why I said, and I quote, "I definitely understand that you're going to have bugs in a cutting edge ROM." The whole purpose of this post was to find out if there are ways *I* could fix the things that are screwed up and/or help any and, if not, if there was another, similar, better ROM. Only n00bs run stock. I'm definitely not n00b.
3 - Thanks for the clarification, AJJ. I thought it was a new thread for the ROM and was actually like...what the ****!? How does this have so many replies!!?? I'll check that out. Thanks again.
Thanks everyone!!
Yeah...cause you cant text, or receive texts at all on the ROM...and nothing on the lock screen works**end sarcasm**....try cm10.1...only other 4.2.x rom out there...otherwise, this has already been covered ad nauseum in the Dev thread...

[Q] screen blackout while using my galaxy nexus maguro

Hi Devs
I'm from Mumbai India and i'm using galaxy nexus gsm.
It is an awesome phone but lately i'm having problem
My phone screen flashs and blackouts out of nowhere While operating my nexus and than i have to reboot it.
This has been happening from the time when i tried few custom roms (xylon, miui, overdrive, pa, minco v6 and madoco) back to back couple of weeks back. I don't know what is the cause of it and why is it happening.
So guys i need little help here.. Plzz help me fix it.
Right now I'm using baked 7 rom and gapp 4.2.1 12/12/2012.
Thank you in advance
I believe this is referred to as a Screen of death, or sod. Search the forum, and you may find some answers. Ive heard this is common on 4.2.1, but have yet to deal with it myself. Actually, though, ive had some close calls where the power button will not wake the phone, and i believe ive also seen where the actual issue is waking the phone from sleep..
Actually, I've just noticed that you're using the old gapps as well. The baked downloads page has the new gapps, and perhaps that may help you.
THANK YOU

BUG: JB 4.1.2 update - Pressing Home Button to wake brings up task manager sometimes?

I dont see a lot of posts about this. But, there is a very annoying bug after the update; where if I press the Home Button to wake the screen, it will sometimes launch the task manager about a second later. I've seen sporadic posts about this for Tmobile as well as Sprint for JB 4.1.2 update; but nobody seems to have a solution.
I guess it's possible that some people dont think it's annoying enough to post; or, it's a possiblility it only affects people who have the factory rooted update installed.
I'm hoping someone smarter than me has already figured out a way to circumvent this very annoying behavior. What makes it really bad is that it only sometimes happens.
PS: The only carrier that doesn't seem to have this issue after the 4.1.2 update is ATT. My guess is they caught this bug before pushing it to all their customers.

I'm going to bet that is you disable your lockscreen you'll see this behavior just about every time. I'm fairly certain I tracked down at least one way to circumvent this behavior - check out this post for some info on it. The take home - my approach requires a wee bit of smali hacking, and everything that utilizing such a solution entails...
Dwitherell, thank you so much for responding. I was even considering on reverting back to 4.1.1 because of this. I don't use any kind password or pattern lock.
Forgive my ignorance, but the post you pointed me to locks like its on a Jedi ROM. I don't even see any specific references to this issue. What is this fix for specifically? If it is for sure going to restore normal behavior, i guess i could try to do this hack.
If this issue is as wide spread as i think it is, is there any chance you could make a tiny root app that fixes the problem or some way of automating a fix for not so technical people? How wide spread is this issue? Thanks a million for your help.

My annoying fix...
I have been plagued by this since the update as well. I have tried factory resets and uninstall programs one by one. Nothing worked. Today I decided to try removing my lock screen pin, just used the swipe to unlock. That did not work. Then it came to me...
I set back up my pin to unlock, and switched the setting "Lock automatically" to Immediately instead of having a delay that I love. That "worked" as in it no longer goes to recent apps. But now I have to chose to have a pin to unlock it every time my screen turns off or remove security or deal with the recent apps issue. Any way you choose it's an extra annoying step to unlock.
I'd like to hear if anyone else has found any other solution.
Edit.... I have tried every lock option and as long as set to lock immediately, it will eliminate the problem. And the same with setting any delay, with any lock option it will result in the recent apps.
I forgot to mention that lock screen prevents this bug from happenening. I'm guessing that's why not everyone has complained about the issue.. and why the bug somehow sneaked passed beta testing of 4.1.2. I would think this changed behavior was a new "feature" as horrible as it is, but it looks like it dad unintentional since its not consistent behavior.
I'm hoping that a kind android developer who also can't stand this problem, Kay offer a small script or app for rooted user to patch this problem.

It was posted in a Jedi thread, but only because that is where I noticed it was mentioned. The context outside that single post was someone stating the same observation as you, my responding saying that I was also annoyed by it, with a later edit saying I may have come up with a workaround for it, and their response of "tell me more". As far as automating a fix or creating an app or the like - that is well beyond my paygrade unfortunately. What are you running? If you are interested you could PM me - all I need is your android.policy.jar (or to know what you are currently running) and I can try to get a fix together for you given some other conditions (i.e. have a custom recovery installed so you can flash things). It seems to have fixed it on my end, but I would be very interested in getting some others to test
You did it! Your fix works perfectly! The bug is gone! ...like the bug was never there. My understanding is the fix prevents the phone from stupidly trying to launch the task manager when the screen wakes by the home button. I also donated for you time and effort. Thanks a million.

No, thank you for making me learn how to put an odexed mod together and testing it for me!
So this fix will work for anyone running a stock odexed version of 4.1.2 UVBMB4 - you just need to be rooted, and having a custom recovery would be nice so you could flash it but you could also just copy the files over. That being said - would this be worthwhile to post?
I wish i had know i could just copy the files over.. that's actually less convoluted process than depending on a script. I thought the reason you made a patch via flashing is because the system files were locked/open by the system. Anyway, i am extremely thankful for this'll as there is no other way to fix the bug without adding extra steps to wake the screen.
You should definitely share both odexed and deodexed patches with others. I personally don't know how i could tollerate that bug for much longer. I'm sure there are others who don't use the lock screen. Plus, this would give a chance for others to appreciate your work by dontating for your time and effort.

The flashable zip is just one method to get the files where they need to go. Literally all it does is overwrite the 2 files in /system/framework by moving the 2 files over from the zip - but there are definitely other ways to do such things. Some are more comfortable with this route, others are more comfortable w/ getting /system to be rw and move the files manually.
I'll likely post this at some point in the next few days
I don't mean to revive a dead thread or anything, but this bug has been driving me CRAZY & the smali hacking worked perfectly for me, thank you!!!

Is it possible that my phone isn't affected? If its a 4.1.2 bug, it should be in all phones with same version right?
This is not happening to my phone. Whether I have lock screen activated or not. I'm rooted but running stock ROM and I have Nova launcher installed if thats even important.
It's not all notes.

FYI, I'm willing to help people out with this as well. If anyone wants this done but doesn't wanna mess with the java stuff, PM me & send me your android.policy.jar and I'll hack it for you

Absolutely. just PM me. Yeah, you have to be rooted but that's easy to do & worth it for this hack & all the other things you can do once you're rooted.
