Anyone else seeing crazy graphical glitching in games such as dead trigger right after flashing the official jb update. Makes most of these games pretty much unplayable. Tried restoring my nandroid backup and reflashing jb but it keeps happening. Graphics only blur with motion if that helps any.
I was running latest ics build rooted with cwm recovery and was hoping that there is just some file I have to flash to fix it.
Couldn't find anything on it.

Maybe I should be more clear. I flashed
eec955eb4a5b.update_SPH-L710_LI3_to_LJ7.zip and root from recovery v5, and when in LJ7 the graphical problems happen (seems to only happen with unity engine games so far)
Was completely fine in LI3 and works fine when I restore my nandroid backup of LI3. I really wanna keep jelleybean though so if there is some kind of kernal or rom that includes the required graphics drivers while keeping as close to stock root that anyone knows of, please let me know. I am looking for a daily driver rom that I can flash and forget and was hoping the official release would be that. Want to have tw though as I use allshare cast.
Any suggestions or ideas are greatly appreciated.

That's the exact problem. Also noticed it on contract killer 2, wondering if it is just us or the rom as a whole and just maybe nobody is reporting it. Can someone on the latest sprint ota confirm this please. Thanks.

I had the same issues. What fixed for Dead Trigger and Contract Killer 2 was settings>developer options>disable hardware overlays, make sure this box is checked. Worked like a charm for me and I am on Freezas LJ7 leak.
Wish I could click thank you more than once.. That totally fixed it. THANKS

Don't do it. Realistically, the dev should've disabled the room update feature if he used the TMo ROM for his base. You may want to pm him and let him know.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using XDA Premium HD app
Its not gonna do anything. If you accept it'll download and attempt to install but will fail.
You can go into app management and disable the software update apps there.
FreeGS3 is a wip. Dev is also working on incorporating a software update for his rom, so it may have been left purposely. Either way, no harm has or will come beccause its there. Its already been covered many times in that roms thread as well as multiple others.

Use Titanium backup to force stop the updates from happening or uninstall them all together I did that and now the updates are gone.
Since the thread is covered and done. I'm curious as to the whole update search app not hurting anything. On the g2x WhitehawkX always removed the possibility for it cause it was !
1. Annoying
2. Something that was always checking and causing battery drainage. It this not true?

Do you mean the Software Update and FW Upgrade apps? On a custom rom I dont think itd matter either way. Most likely you wouldnt be able to use it since you are rooted, deodexed and prob on a custom recovery. Like what happened for many on FreeGS3. Able to download the update but installation failed. But we knew it was available.
I dont think it uses much in the way of resources. He could be right about battery though, and im sure he knows more thsn I do on that subject.
In short it doesnt hurt anything to be there, but if it cant be used, isnt it just wasted space?

I would say Titanium Backup, Wifi tether for root users, and Rom toolbox are must have apps.
The toolbox and TB are both really awesome and packed to bursting with features
Oh and +1 to the guy above me on the ad blocker app, it really helps.
Oh and some sort of file browser, root browser has a nice GUI but tends to crash a lot, Root explorer is a little more reliable
Thanks for the replies guys! So glad I decided to root my device and hope to really get into all the ins and outs of rooting!

What i got on board my s3
What I am running is Frankenstein kill joy7 2.1 with the standard AGAT kernel .3.2 which comes with the ROM. It launches on APEX which for me is no big deal. Also Frankenstein also comes with almost no bloat ware.I have been through a few roms and found this one really nice. I have used CM10 and it was ok for me but liked the single core when the screen was off. Titanium is always excellent and even Pimp my ROM or ROM Customizer app. and Goo manager if you are ever plan on switching your ROM. If you are new at swapping ROMs biggest advice anyone could have told me is to do ALOT ALOT ALOT of research prior to switching to a new ROM nothing is more frustrating the a boot loop, soft brick or worse a BRICK. hope it helps and welcome to the custom ROM it gets better from here on out
Oh yes yes, usually some sort of build rpop editor andthe following recovery and managing apps (either one)
ClockworkMod Recovery (CWM) + Rom Manager
TWRP and Goo manager
I would also HIGHLY recommend doing a lot of research (like the guy above me said) and you seem inclined so it shouldnt be a problem, a good start would be going to xda-university.com and reading through the entire "Users" section, it very thorough and easy to understand

Same setup - should work on T-MO.
Just an update about the new 4.3 GPe: External SD Card is readable when you plug it into your PC. The camera however still does not read the SD card. All else is still functioning.Version 4.3 will break root! All versions of SU currently do not work with 4.3. Just keep that in mind.
You can flash this over your current 4.2.2 Google Edition. If you're coming from TW, do a complete wipe, then flash. Thanks
____________________________________________________________________
No - I did not grab the system dump myself
Yes - I have tested this for the TMO variant and it's fully functioning
I did create a Youtube Video on how to install the Google Edition S4. Check it out!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DmYpkJ27WAM
Althought it's not a ROM built from scratch or a project of any kind, it is a rom all in itself straight from the S4 GE
(Updated Link) - Thanks to luckyduck69 for posting a new mirror. Previous Link crashed XD.
If you're interested in the GE (VERSION 4.2.2), download here: http://www.mediafire.com/download/5nz662i2y826kwd/google-edition-bg.zip

Installed using TWRP 2.5.0.2.
Was notified Root was not installed, told TWRP to install it for me.
So far, seems fine! I miss the "long press back to kill app" feature, but I can live without it as I play with this ROM.
Thanks for the link! After flashing this ROM will all software/firmware on the phone be identical to that on the GPe handset? Or are there any other bits that aren't contained in the ROM?
I'm wondering that too. This is stable? Wipe system/data/cache and flash?
I did a wipe flashed and then had to reboot to get WiFi
going,other than that so far so good .feels smooth,but it could be a placebo effect not sure

Not a problem. After flashing this direct port, I've noticed that my Model number changed to GT-I9505G, but my baseband remains the same (MDL), As it appears, everything is fully functioning from that of the GPe. To be clear, no errors, force closes, or mis-haps have occured.

I'm not sure wi-fi calling is known to work even on the real GPe, is it? I thought it might be specific to TMo/TW ROM somehow. I guess only GPe reviewers know at this point.
I was referring more to general wi-fi capability, I saw some guys saying that didn't work with the GPe system dump on TMo handset.

Sent from my GT-I9505G using xda app-developers app
I think they're still calling this JB because the only new feature besides the camera is bluetooth low energy, I'm sure there's got to be code optimizations and other small things, but those are apparently the only new things.

Guys, this works pretty decently, at least from what I have used thus far. One big change in this from the GE 4.2.2.... no TW guts.... Kiesexe in system/app is gone, and there is no TW framework in system/framework. This is pure'er' than the previous GE build

I love using the Darkhorse inverted apps. I currently use them on my Note 3 and have no issues. I installed them on The Note 10.1 2014 (SM-P600) and every time it brakes wifi for some reason.
does anyone know of a way to solve this?
Anyone have a kernel to flash possibly? I believe on phones I've had in the past that was a work around. Wondering on tablet though.
To fix previously I had to reflash MK1 firmware then reflash TWRP and Re root but I lose the darkhorse apps. I currently haven't redone the steps and was wondering for some insight.
Thank you
Sent from my SM-N900P using xda app-developers app
i'm not too familiar with the dark horse apps, but are they for deodexed roms only?
I dunno, Gun said it shouldnt matter. the apps loaded. its Wifi that is at issue. i think i need to reflash kernel to correct.
wondering does anyone have the kernel, just not posted? how do you compile stock kernel? i have the source code, just clueless as to what to do. any type of instruction involved extracting the zImage, or something like that and replacing an existing stand alone kernel to flash but as of this post, i dont know of any stand alone kernels yet for the device.
thanks

compiling crap is way above what I know. if you made a nandroid I think you can reflash just the boot which I believe is the kernel. it's. been so long since I've ever restored that I can't. really be sure. I do make back ups for just in case but haven't restored.
is wifi just a specific router or all your routers? can you connect via tether to your phone?
what's the link for the apps? I may have some screwing around time this weekend and I see if I can find anything. hopefully you'll be fixed by then though, lol.
The wifi button won't turn on, to clarify it says it's turning on but can't deselect it or select. I can't see any routers. It is grayed out.
