[ROM][3.2]Contingency v1.0b1[5/16/12]

Alright members of the I957 community, I know it's been a long time coming, but I'm proud to (finally) present to you a custom ROM designed specifically for our devices: Contingency! There are a couple of things I need to rattle off in this description before I can get down to business. 1. Due to some error in updater-scripts causing incredible lag with CWM flashes, this ROM is Odin-based only. If you aren't very good with Odin/need a refresher, look down below for a quick little tutorial to help get you started. 2. Due to my lack of an actual cellular data account for this device, it's difficult for me to tell you whether or not the data is working... I'm 99% it is functional in this build, but in future builds I may need a tester to discern for me.
Features & Added Apps
Da_g's OC Kernel
CWM Recovery
Rooted
Zipaligned
Deodexed
Bloat Removed
Build.prop performance tweaks
System Tuner for OC/UV
Titanium Backup
Go Launcher HD (If you're a Touchwiz hater)
As you can probably see, this is a very bland ROM right now; I just had my first successful Odin flash of it yesterday, and the testing lead all the way up to today.
Stuff To Add/Do (Taking Suggestions)
Extended Power Menu
CRT-Off
Bravia
Xloud
Edit Name in build.prop
Put data monitor back in
Theming
Due to my little experience in the world of Tablet modding, I could really use some help as to what you guys would like to see in future builds of Contingency.
Instructions For Odin Flash (It's In Red Because It's Important)
A data wipe is optional, but I recommend it.
Download the .rar of Contingency from the link below
Extract out "Contingency vX.tar" to a place you'll remember it
Open up Odin
Navigate to your Contigency.tar and load it into the PDA slot
Make sure your Tab is in download mode (Power Button + Both Volumes)
MAKE SURE RE-PARTITION IS UNCHECKED!!!!!!111!!!!!111?!?!?!!11!11!%[email protected]^#
Hit start
Go grab a snack, sit back, and watch that progress bar
Screenshots
Look at your Stock Tab... Now back to me. Unfortunately, I'm not your stock tab, but that's what Contingency looks like.

Awesome!
jomeister15, You Da Boss!
I'll flash this in about 12 hours when I am back at home with my i957, and I'll let you know how data is doing. If I get no data action, what is the fallback to get to the original rom?
Thanks very much for this!

Ha, I guess you're right, there isn't really a way to get back to stock if you mess something up... I'll set up a stock firmware repository later today.

Damn! Double damn! Nice....! Finally! Thank you!

if you want wifi hotpost use quick tether from market. it activate usb and wifi tethering.

I'm gonna charge mine up for a little bit and try this rom out later. I only got 30% charge currently.
Bought mine used a couple of months ago. Still has an active SIM in it from the original purchasers account. Guess the termination fee was too steap or they needed the cash and decided to live with the $30 a month
I mainly use it on wifi but will test it out on ATT network to see. I just pop it on once in a while to see if it's still active. Just checked and it was!
If it's a nogo I can just use Odin with the original rom from ATT/Samsung? I already have it downloaded as I've use it twice to reset mine.
Waiting for ICS sucks!
Does this still have the ATT data monitor app?
Thanks!

No issues with flashing the rom. First bootup was a little scary as it stayed on the Android animation screeen for a while. Wound up doing a factory reset once up and running to clear up some issues. Seems to get more responsive after it sits for a while and after a couple of reboots. Had a couple of issues with updating the app store and maps but it seemed to work itself out after a couple of tries.
ATT data is functional for those who are interested. I don't live in a LTE area but it's getting closer by the month.
ATT data monitor app is gone. No biggy but was nice to see how much free data I have left....Hoping original owner keeps my data plan going!
Active applications widget can be added but only clicks when touched. Guess the app is no longer included....No big deal just thought I'd mention it.
Looks like there is alot of stuff to play around with as far as tweaks go. Not sure what they all do but guess I'll check them out later.
Thanks again!
I'll let you guys know if I see anything else that is worth mentioning.

Now that you mention the AT&T data monitor app from the tablet, (poster above) I was trying to get the app working on the galaxy note and I failed. I installed the apk from the tablet to the Galaxy Note via Titanium and manually... I see the app and the widget on the Note perfectly, but I am unable to link it to my phone data plan... Any ideas? I was able to get to a screen were is asking for some credentials that are out of my hands... I guess they are AT&T credentials for my account in order to set or link the monitoring app...

So I've made a NANDroid backup from recovery with CWM already.
If this rom fails, will I be able to do a restore of the stock rom?
Thanks

It would be best to save a copy of your nandroid backup somewhere safe like on your computer just in case you need it later. Not sure if Odin will nuke it or not. My tab was pretty much stock when I flashed it today as I used Odin to restore the stock rom a couple of weeks ago. If I remember correctly a folder in root is no longer there. Not 100% sure what it was called but I'm thinking it was preloaded or preinstalled. Not needed anyways as it was ATT apps/bloatware if I remember correctly.
I'm not sure about the rom failing and nandroid back thing. Maybe somebody else knows forsure.
I'm thinking if you for some reason don't like this rom you'd have to maybe use Odin to flash the stock rom back first, then install the kernel you were using and then move the nandroid back to the tab if it was deleted and then flash it back.

As soon as there is a link to download the original Stock AT&T ROM I will be installing this ROM...

Anyone else flash this on an AT&T (not rodgers) 957? (Not 957R)
Just did, it comes up, but is amazingly slowwwwwww.
Curious if anyone is seeing the same behavior...
Edit: going back to the stock boot.img did away with that problem. Appears to be related to OC kernel?
UPDATE: reflashed the "1944mhz" Da_G kernel to the boot partition (untar'ed the ODIN tar, dd'ed boot.img to blk0p8) and no slowness was observed, set to 1.72ghz, lets see what 200mhz buys me -- hopefully not a crash :-D

hmm, that is odd, anyone else with slowness issue?

Mine is running fine. Better than before actually.

Broadband APN got me on LTE also. PTA didn't work. I think that one only works with phones?
Either way, I'm getting my usual ~25mbit speeds on AT&T LTE's network, so that's a good sign
Seems this ROM is a little faster, but that's based only on software install times from the play store, which is the most intensive thing I've done so far.
Looks like less lag on storage access, maybe.

GPS working for anyone? It appears non-functional here in Texas, hasn't locked in 30 minutes and the "GPS Status" market app shows no sats locked in.
Is there possibly some config that needs to get changed to make it realize it's not in Canada anymore any should look for other birds? or something or that sort?
GPS was really solid on the stock image.
I'll try to troubleshoot but right now just curious if it's just me or all us
UPDATE: Magically started working while poking around trying to see why it may be broken. Maybe the GPS receiver just needed a lot of convincing it's in Texas now?
The rogers image has the debug level at 3, ATT at 5 (system/etc/gps.conf) -- Not that we really need that level of debug for normal use, but just another diff between ATT and rogers to note -- sure is less chatty in logcat that way
If you're having trouble getting a lock, might just be best to leave GPS on overnight and let it figure out its parameters.
ANOTHER UPDATE: Got to work, about 8 miles from my home. Tab now has no clue where it is an is using network (cell tower) location only. GPS is not receiving fixes. logcat shows the location service is making successful RPC calls to libloc, and the GPS hardware is trying, but isn't getting a real fix. Let it sit for an hour trying to get a fix, nothing. reflashed stock AT&T ROM, boot, instant fix to 20 meters.
Got back home, ATT image found it's position ~8 miles away in <1 min
So to be more specific about the "test" conditions, I usually turn GPS on only when I intend to use it, sometimes leaving it off for a day or two... This always presents a bit of a challenge for the GPS to re-lock with it's current parameters (GPS parameters drift, and are updated daily via the internet, aka AGPS). An especially good test of GPS functionality is to move more than a few miles with GPS powered down, so it has to essentially "re-fix". Seems whatever is different in the ATT image makes this process faster?
Any suggestions on what to look at? I don't know much about how GPS works on Android, but I'd guess this would be pretty easy to remedy if I knew what to hack at. It doesn't seem to be a delta in config files (there's not exactly much of those, regardless) so I'm suspecting something in a library or jar (ie: the android framework) -- you guys think the delta might be in something released by samsung? I can grab both the platform sources (957 and 957R) and compare, if I can find where some of the GPS code is (there's a LOT of code there lol!) .. I'd kinda like to learn more about android GPS anyways!

[Q] LAG on NEW UPDATE UVLE1?

WHOA!!! The lag is serious on this ICS overhaul/update.....please tell me I'm not the only one. Did a complete factory reset before doing my upgrade so I could have a clean OS install. The lag is serious here.......I need someone to clarify this for me.
BTW CARRIER IQ IS PRESENT!!! UGH!!!

Well its stock, and well let it get settled ...is it overall lag or just like games from my SGH-T989 using XDA

I sure hope so........or perhaps the damn bloatware. BTW it has carrier IQ!

Set the phone down for 10mins w/o doing anything. Its fine for me.

what that means (I assume you are getting this error message in Kies) is that there is not enough free space on your desktop computer. All you have to do is move some files off your C drive to free up some space. Usually the error message will tell you something about how much free space you need (something like 3000 MB of space needed...etc..).
If you free up some space on your computer it should run just fine.
---------- Post added at 09:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:58 AM ----------
I think it is just during the initial upgrade. I let me phone do it's thing for about 10 minutes after upgrading and it seemed to clear up the lag. But I "think" I still sense a little bit of lag. It does not feel as smooth as the previous stock ROM.
It also could be that I rooted my previous stock ROM and did not unroot prior to the update, nor did I reset to factory defaults. Not sure if that had any effect on the lag.

laggy yes well for me ot is...and ciq is **** yes tmo "only" use thats info but ciq keeps the resr on their server.all it tajes is one hacker and boom the whold world knows everything u dont want them to know

I had some serious lag after I installed ICS, so I did a factory reset and everything seems to be working ok. ICS doesn't seem to be as fast as GB in going into Landscape mode, but I like the ui improvements.
My problem is "Touch Key Light Duration". Seems to be a problem with the little bit I googled. I can set it the duration to "Always On, but it has a mind of it's own. Somethings will turn off the light; have to go back into the settings to reset the light on.

That's very strange. As soon as I upgraded the performance upgrade became apparent within seconds. I had some lag as it first booted up but its working flawlessly. I read somewhere that the qualcomm chip patch implemented in UVLDE is key in the "smoothness" of ics. Don't know about the validity of such claim but hey, it wouldn't hurt to Odin to uvlde stock and then kies/Odin back to stock ics if your problems arise again

[Discussion] FI25 Leak

Thanks to rockypr for his idea to do this on FH23. List all the fixes, bugs, additions or whatever you want to discuss about the FI25 Leak.
I will start.
Additions/Changes:
1. Removed ability to choose between MTP or Mass Storage.
2. Removed the Back up and reset option under settings.
3. Much more stable! "rwilco12"
4. Feels super smooth !"rwilco12"
5. Picture messages now send on 3G. "rwilco12"
6. Connections seem to be much faster. "rwilco12"
7. Battery percentage icon is off by default again. "rwilco12"
8. Several updated bloatware apps. "rwilco12"
9. Connection Optimizer is removed. "tdunham"
10. Bootanimations appear to be working again. "tdunham"
11. Removed contact tab from dialer again. "manufan721"
12. Out of Office editing works again! "rwilco12"
13. Battery monitor for devs is removed. "rwilco12"
14. Sprint Zone has a voice. "rwilco12"
15. It seems they added an extra font called Helvetica Neue. "Dvin211"
Bugs/Issues:
1. The Recent Apps thing, where it isn't transparent if you have 3 or less apps in it, still exists.
2. The led notification light does not pulse while charging. "someguyatx"
3. Bluetooth is not functioning properly. "grncherry" For me it was constantly dropping the connection.
4. My WiFi just stopped connecting out of the blue.
Some quotes from the community:
Hmmm.....i flashed and it seemed laggy to me, modem worked great. "manufan721"
This modem really helped with low signal. "revamper"
Data speeds greatly improved and get signal before where i never used to! "elliwigy"
Holy crap this ROM is fricken smooth! Scrolling on it is nice finally! "daniel4653"
Coming from FI03 I'm finding this build to be laggy at times with a couple freeze ups when opening apps- Market , Gmail & Working in settings which reminds me of the young ICS bad days. Data transfer is slower. "sling"
I went back to FH13 today. FI25:not good modem. very slow. Some hicups opening apps. They took away some functions. :banghead: I did not feel much improvement from FH13 or to be more accurate from FI03. "Omar04"
Battery life has greatly increased. "IamFlynn"
I'll second Omar on the FH25 modem. Its terrible for me. The ROM is alright, a little bit smoother and more crisp than FH13, but not enough for me to change my daily setup. "boXerrumble "

Fu#*! I didn't notice that yet. Haven't had a chance to use the rom yet. That blows. I don't know why they are mucking with it so much. I don't understand why they removed the mass storage option or the backup feature either. As far as it being laggy I am not noticing that part. Seems really smooth and fluid for me.

Some things that I've noticed:
Agat's FI03 repack instead of FI25 kernel seemed to give me even better signal. Asked Tray to test as well but didn't work for him.
The buttons between contacts and dialer - which were nice - are gone again
Wonder if they're cutting down because the ROM was as big as it was...?

wow this is the second best comment i ever came across here at XDA ;P
a few months back a good guy at fascinate forums responded like this when a fantastic ROM update came. He said
* Thanks OP, this thing got me laid last night , my GF just loved it *

Feedback
I don't mind installing stuff like this, especially if it fixes the issues im having, I can handle most of the tech hurdles, however I wish there was some kinda of feedback mechanism. Clearly 'they' aren't just writing the ROMs for fun....

Just some more stuff I've found.
- Out of Office editing works again!
- Battery monitor for devs is removed.
- Sprint Zone has a voice... Maybe I'm imagining this one but it wasn't in previous builds, right? Correct me if I'm wrong on this one.

this is irrelevant but is anyone having power button issues? mine is seriously messing up now.
Also, they better have not removed mass storage.

call recorder is not work at this leak

That is not the issue. The led notification light does not pulse while charging in Touchwiz ics builds. It worked in GB Touchwiz roms and it works in Aosp roms. You can use controls in aosp roms to make the light flash blue and red or the app blink or lightwave can make the light flash blue. Its very handy.

I'm running stock with Tunein Radio Pro & slacker radio installed.
Coming from FI03 I'm finding this build to be laggy at times with a couple freeze ups when opening apps- Market , Gmail & Working in settings which reminds me of the young ICS bad days.
Data transfer is slower.
Battery life not so good but that may change after settle in hmm heck I'm going back to FI03.

Ah I gotcha now ..sounds to me more like a feature that was removed in ICS not so much a bug to be fixed

In addition to the warning CJ posted, can we get a clear explanation about the stock kernel issue too please?
Here is an excerpt from Kobridge's forum by Leaderbuilder:
"Well flashed this and liking it so far but here are some things I've found. Stock kernel worked (works). But when I tried to Mobile Odin a source built kernel with recovery (Agat's 5.4 or RUjeluss' 1.8) the phone locke up on boot and required a battery pull.
To get it back to functioning I had to PC Odin the FI03 Agat's kernel (Couldn't use the FI25 one click from the repository it kept failing md5 check). Then I was able to boot back up.
Then tried to Mobile odin back to FI25 kernel via Mobile Odin and the same thing happened - stuck at boot screen. So back to PC Odin One-click and use FI03 Agats and booting again."

OK please try to go easy, Im not a noob (Im just getting old) I just had my i717 note 1 stolen and i got an att Galaxy S3 on the way... Just prepping, I want to do the most stable paranoid android build out and get into some phablet action. Where can I get the install files for the 3/15 version, it sounds like thats the most stable at this point, any suggestions or points to the contrary, but most importantly where can I find the basic files for the 3/15 and whatever else you need to get from stock ui to PA... Any tips are so greatly appreciated, seriously. XDA love..
Just need to be pointed in the right direction, need full camera/main functions to maintain functionality so whats the way to go for stable tablet style PLEASE HELPPP, LOL
Sincere sincere thanks from an overworked and slightly behind the curve but loyal and dedicated Android user.

I am using 3.11. The OLED changes to its battery fully charged color @ 90%. Is there is there a way to fix this?

Everything is running great. I came from ParanoidKangDroid because of a couple programs where expanded desktop didn't stick.
I haven't been able to make my lock screen pie be the same colors as my device wide color scheme. It always defaults to stock colors for that. Ideas?

Never mind... I'm an idiot. Had to go hybrid properties > apps and change the color for system ui and android system and reboot. Doh.

S3 lockups and LTE?
Hi
I put this on my GS3 (I747 AT&T) last night and so far it's pretty good.
I have noticed some weird occasional lockups and reboots, which is find for unofficial rom, I know what I'm getting into.
My other issue is that it seems to prefer 3G, HSDA, or HSDA+ over LTE even though I'm in a market with extensive LTE coverage. Is there any way to "weight" this?
Also the on-screen soft keys seem redundant, is there a way to disable them without disabling the status bar (PIE mode hides both)?
Thanks!

Lockups and reboots are kernel related you can try flashing another kernel (or wait for an update) I use this. It's the 4/09 All-Star Devs Kernel. You have to make sure if you flash a kernel not to go any newer than 4/09/13 or it won't work this this ROM until it gets updated.
Make sure your APN settings are correct, make sure LTE is selected in your settings and if all else fails do a Speed Test to check your speeds.
You can disable Nav Bar (Bottom) Settings > Hybrid Properties > Nav Bar 0% Apply and reboot if it prompts for it.

Awesome, thanks for the advice, I'll give it a shot!

Actually, I have noticed the same thing for me, only in the past two days.. Specifically: random sleeps of death with no regularity, and when trying to use Spotify, or I Heart Radio when plugged into my headphones (Samsung set that came with the phone) phone will not play music through the app, but it will work just fine when plugged into an aux cable... I have changed nothing in my kernel settings, or system settings since things settled down.
Very strange.

Thanks I was having some problems that kernel seem to fix them.

Afaik pa only officially supports nexus devices. Everything else is unofficial I think.

tablet ui statusbar clock size
Is there anyway to change the clock size and position of the date in tablet ui. The giant clock and date rilling off the edge is a deal breaker for me and this ROM. I've searched everywhere I know of and would apprieciate any advise. Thanks

Yup only nexus devices and now the Oppo Find 5 are supported other devices are not supported. Someone has ported Paranoid Android over to unofficial devices.

What do the instructions mean by "update recovery"?
Thanks!

I'm on the latest version of Paranoid Android. I've been experiencing this weird noise. It happens when the phone is placed down or just the screen turning on or off. In the video, it sounds like I'm placing the phone down with some force but I've activated the sound even when putting it down super gently.
Here's the video:

If anyone can tell me how to disable this noise or what causes it, I would be greatly appreciative!

Simple answer:
The instructions are simply telling you to make sure that you have the most recent recovery for your device is installed, and if not, to install it. Oftentimes not having an updated recovery is what causes the Status 7 errors when trying to flash new ROMs.

Uhm, that is odd? Though it sounds like it might be the notification sound of the microsd card disengaging and re-engaging?
Just a thought.

I read in the PA development thread that ATT and TMO roms are.interchangeable. Has anybody tried flashing the T-Mobile PA onto their ATT s3?

Other than the updated kernel and displays drivers there is no difference in roms. Regardless if it'll work it won't give you anything you don't already have.
