Hey Im new to the s3 forum and was on the s2 forum..
Question is, what are some good ROMs that are stable and have the CRT off animation effect?
Only one I have seen is the older AOSP Jovy Rom where he implemented The sony xperia feel
Any other choices? Thanks!!
Keep reading. There are about 25 good roms for the S III. No TouchWiz roms have the CRT animation in them (I'm almost positive) not sure why not, but it is a great deal of Smali coding and not every one likes it, so it's just not worth their time maybe. AOSP roms are strong here cause of the qualcomm chip and their support for the Open Alliance. Just backup your IMEI and start testing, there is also an abundance of videos of each rom on YouTube watch those to get a better feeling.
Haha I remember the galaxy s1 days when enabling CRT off animation just meant changing a boolean value in framework-res...I guess that it requires more smali hacks nowadays so people are including it Sammy ROMs less.
However all AOSP based ROMs for the s3, have the CRT off animation by default.

Like mentioned, none of the sammy roms have the crt off effect however nearly all aosp ones do. It is an integrated feature in both cyanogenmod and aokp. My favorite is the pacman rom. It is completely stable as a daily driver but does have a few bugs that can be easily fixed.There are also nightly releases adding the best from all the other roms.
thanks to all!

Cyanogen and liquid smooth has the option to enable/disable.

You sure it has the CRT effect, I haven't tried that rom, but I need to and need to add it to my Resource guide.

I'm pretty sure, I've been running it for like 2 days (if that matters) I believe the CRT effect is the TV mimic thing? Yeh, it doesn't have it.

I was referring to your title. I thought you don't want the animation, right? Or you need the toggles too? Sorry for misunderstanding.

No no no. They want the animation to be there.

well the ics roms that are out currently are the leaked versions of the skyrocket made to work with t989 which probably means the devs just need the proper drivers in order to do the crt animation in ics roms for t989 which is not out yet.
but the crt animation works in ics, just not yet in t989 until proper drivers are released :L
For the time being you can use the app "Screen off and lock" it's not perfect but it does its job.
>>DARKSIDE<<
Devs have been working on this for awhile. Basically it boils down to the fact that ics lacks the libs for this (surfaceflinger), and it would pretty much have to be re-written
I believe once we have kernel source for ICS. Then we'll have bln support.

This value might be true...I haven't dev'd in awhile so it slips my mind a little

It shouldn't be drivers because you have the ICS build....
Its framework related....
If anything it would only be the libs if what I posted above doesn't work...

NVM got it to work. I turned all animations off.
I have been using this app on my vibrant. Installed it onto my SG2 and it worked for the first day (Darkside EVO 2 ROM) but now the only animation that works is the static. Any ideas as to why I am having thiss issue or is this due to the ROM still being in beta?
it works in aokp. i was so used to not having it i was surprised when it did it. lol.
Hi Guys,
Soo.. I know this question might of come up like 100's of times BUT, I couldn't find anything for my needs . My question was, as a guy who is starting out on rooting/flashing/roms/themes etc, what do you recommend I use? Which rom and which themes?? (Want a rom with good features, and I am on JB btw)
Would appreciate your opinions...
Thanks!
I suggest you wait until AOKP ROM updates to JB. I had AOKP and it is beyond awesome
I am just rocking stock everything for now though
When will that be updated? Any estimates?

The CM10 Kang is also a good option. Lots of added features and more coming each day.

+1 CM10 is very good for starters since all you need to do to change most of the customizable things is change a setting! In other words no flashing themes necessary and since a lot of people use it, there is plenty of support and developers.
was just curious if anyone has caught wind of port of paranoid android rom coming to the sprint gs3. ive seen it on the international and the verizon one. id love to be able to pick between the 3 different uis on this phone. thanx in advance. and befor anyone flames, yes i did use search lol
I want this too
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
super excited for this as well but patient. While some had the s3 since initial launch over a month ago. Many have only had the phone for 2 to 3 weeks. It will happen give it time.
But Verizon got it already
Verizon
That was the version I thought would have the least dev with the locked boot loader and all

I don't follow this comment. Paranoid Android Rom and FreeGS3 are no where near the same type of rom.

No.. They are not... I asked a question, being as it not available for sprint phones... Have you tried alternatives until then?

ParanoidAndroid
I've ported it to the AT&T S3 but haven't made a thread for it yet because I have one bug left in it, call audio doesn't work. I could port it to the Sprint S3 and upload it in this thread if anyone wants to test it. Call audio should be the only bug, well if there's any bugs in CM10 those will be present too.

The more ROMs the better
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
well im personally using aokp right now. it takes care of a lot of the cm10 bugs and it has a few customizations that i really enjoy already baked in (i.e. center clock and circlemod battery). the main reason i want the paranoid android is the in depth ui changing. and with jellybean now having 3 different uis baked in id love to go through and tinker with all of that. i really want the 7inch notification bar ui and the tablet camera ui ( i love the option wheel look). but just like it was mentioned earlier, more roms is never a bad thing but the only way i see me giving up aokp is for some PA love lol
Yup it is pretty badass

One thing I really miss about having my Galaxy Nexus was the CRT animation. I'm no dev son I don't know how to get this on the Siii and would be awesome if someone could figure it out. Anyone know how to go about doing this?

CRT
There actually were several threads devoted to this, but it turned out that every update meant a lot of smali code had to be changed. It got to be too much for the developers, so they stopped. Another way was to use an app without editing anything, but that was stopped for the same reason. It worked sort of OK on UVALEM, but UVALH2 broke it completely as the app was not updated. Google "xsposed, xda" and you should find it.
FreeGS3 and Wicked have CRT animation on there roms

Appreciate that information. I'll keep an eye on both!:good:
Newest cn10 and aokp has CRT. It actually works very nice. With touchjizz based ROMs there was a slight flicker after CRT animation not apparent anymore
I have the ParanoidKangDroid v.2.30 ROM. I saw that they updated the stock TouchWiz which allows you to have multi view on the s3. I want multi-view on my ROM, is it possible?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
the stock TW you speak of is 4.1.2 and includes mulitview on the international stock firmware only.
for a custom ROM with that feature, you will have to flash one in which the framework allows. there are a couple in android dev section. i'm not sure of their stability. i've heard good things about csrom thebmb

Likely not. As a TW feature, it is dependent on the entire framework.

Didn't really like CSROM to well because it seemed like a basic themed TW, I was hoping it would come with more features like PIE or different UI's.
however if it had features like paranoid androids roms then i'd take it. I like to have the Tablet UI and PIE controls which is why I stick with AOSP, AOKP. Could someone speak with a developer about porting Multi-View to AOSP?
I appreciate everyone's help!

As long as source code for TW stays unreleased its impossible to port. That's why no devs bother to try and port. Its going in blindfolded. Same with Sense and other UI overlays. So when Samsung releases source code it'll be possible.
