Hopefully someone can help the new guy out. I have been trying to get themes and lock screens to work for days now on my GS3 running CM10.1.0 and nothing seems to work right. Using the theme manager in the settings I keep getting an error that says my screen resolution is not right.
I have also tried using CWM recovery to load the lock screens and it says the zip was successful, but doesn't work.
Any thoughts?

After installing juggernaut 5.0 on my phone with the ics ultimate theme I have had a couple of problems.
I have noticed on my home screen (i have cnn, accuweather, and and retro clock and date widgets in it) I have seen portions of the screen flash blue (like half the screen sometimes)
Did I kill my phone?
Also swiftkey x keyboard keeps on disabling itself.
Please help me, thanks

Also the blue flash problems takes over the whole screen at times and it looks like it has lines going down in them.

Did you install the correct ICS theme? The one for 5.0 and not 4.1?
give it another reboot then perhaps the rom will settle down....thats what i would do...

You also want to make sure you always restart after flashing a ROM, then go back into recovery and flash a theme. Don't flash them back to back.

Well I just rebooted my phone let's see if it happens again... Yes it's the 5.0 version of the theme and i rebooted after I flashed the rom before I installed the theme.

Its in goo manager listed under compatible ROMs and also says sprint gs3 in the ROM name. But the damn thing gets into a boot loop on every build I tried. Anyone else notice this?

No luck here either
He's working on getting it to boot but try flashing a kernel right after you flash the rom and gapps.

That's great, used ktoonsez kernel and it worked. Only thing that doesn't seem to be working so far is 3g, wifi's working though.
It also gets stuck on getting started, just turned off the screen and turned it on and it worked.

Has anyone else had issues while fixing permissions in recovery on jellybean? I've read about a few people having bootloops, etc and I've had it freeze up on me and had to do a battery pull. Never had issues before on gb or ics... Is this a jellybean issue or maybe cwm 6?

I'm jellybomb domination JB and mine freezes as well and I have to pull the battery every time. I thought it was just me.
I tried it on my friend's Droid Razr (which is also on a JB leak) and it froze and had to be reset.
Lickily...no bootloops, so far.

Try using the new TWRP 2.3. They rewrote the code for fixing permissions and should now complete in a few seconds rather than minutes. To get it easily, download goomanager from the market, open it press the menu button in the top right and choose install open script recovery and it will automatically download and install the latest version for you.

I noticed I could potentially change my icons and themes from RT, but attempting that on my DX caused bad results. Has anyone tried it with this S3 rom, or any others? GS3 SGH-T999 with Root66 4.1.1 T-Mobile rom with flashed boot animation enabler and CWM Touch 6.0.1.2 (I think)
Thanks!

For most part RT Pro works. Some Status Bar icons can be changed will others dont do anything. Ive noticed that some work like a battery icon change works visually but the percentage of the battery level was always off. I know boot animation can be used but on a CM10 based rom it does not store the boot ani in the right folder but I do believe it does store it correctly on a stock rom.
Never fails to try just do a Nandroid backup. I do it all the time.
Okay, I'll give it a go after my next backup. I got the boot animations to work after flashing an enabler I found on another post. It still does the T-Mobile chime, but that's fine.
Thanks for the feedback!

Tried RT Pro icons and it didn't do anything, other than bugger my accounts up. I just restored the backup from TouchWin to get it back. I'm curious if It's just where Samsung stored the icons, since some came up not found on system, or if Samsung has them blocked, and it requires an enabler, like the custom boot animations do. I'll have to finger walk a bit more and see if there's an enabler, or another app that can change icons. I looked into UOTKitchen, I think it was called, and It's got some neat icons I'd like to use, but I'm worried about using it to mod Root66, and totally screwing up the rom, or worse, fouling my phone up.
Any thoughts/suggestions?

It should still set reguardless of the screen resolution.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
I know it should, but there are only pieces that set. And sometimes when I set it once part sets then I redo it again and more set.
As it comes to the lock screens they don't set at all.

Take a look at this thread. Be sure to read everything.
The golden rule is to set the default, reboot, then set the new theme...

Plus, please use the q&a section next time
Edit
Try this, you might like it, I just tested it

Remember to reboot after you apply it, and yes accept the install even with the error...
Also I'm using taskers 4.2.2 rom

I appreciate that I will try it and get back to you. Unfortunately I am currently using my back up phone (rooted HTc Vivid) while I wait for my replacement GS3 to come in the mail since mine died. I will let you know what happens.
Also sorry I'm still newer to the Xda forums, but I will make sure to check and also post in the q&a next time
