CSROM & Graviton Support and Discussion Thread
This thread was created in response to a new xda initiative to reduce non-development related posts on development threads.
An added benefit of a thread here is that users with under 10 posts can get some help (and won't have to PM me).
I will maintain just one thread (hopefully this works) for both ROMs and all carriers to help preserve my sanity.
Please be sure to specify which ROM you are using and the carrier.
Below are some examples of common types of posts and where they belong
Q&A and FAQ Thread:
"What kernel gives the best battery life with this ROM?"
"Is Nova launcher compatible with this ROM?"
"The battery life for this ROM is off the chizarts!"
"The battery life for this ROM is total crap!"
"I just flashed this ROM and my GPS doesn't work. :crying:"
Development Thread:
"The new cellular data toggle isn't working (confirmed by another user)?"
"I keep getting FC's from SystemUI. Any thoughts?"
"I selected the green battery icons in Aroma but it installed the blues ones (I checked twice)."
"I just flashed this ROM and it bricked my device! "
"The battery life for this ROM is off the chizarts!
(see attached screenshots from Better Battery Stats)."
"The battery life for this ROM is total crap!
(see attached screenshots from Better Battery Stats)."
**********************************************
There are exceptions to the examples above. If you are using a port and your GPS doesn't work I need to know that.
It will probably take some time for threads like this to evolve, so I am definitely open to feedback.
**********************************************

Hey guys,
ATT CSROM v1.4 GS3 - Love the ROM so far, once I got a lot of my apps and data restored and a few issues with that worked out.
Kind of a newb to customs roms. This is the first one I have put on my GS3.
As far as I can tell I am using the CS launcher and would like to the change the wallpaper on my lock screen. However when I bring up the selection screen it only give me the option to use the stock wallpapers.
Can I just move an image to the stock location and have it appear? Or is there another option?

Yeah, it get's tough sometimes. That is why guys like you and the other people that test for me are a huge help. You guys make my life a lot easier by helping out on the threads.
It won't be long before I stop supporting the Atrix. I just don't have the time and I don't use the device anymore.
There is also a pretty good chance I will close up shop for my Sprint and T-Mobile ports for this device. There is not much interest for my ROMs in either forum. Probably not a bad thing since that will lighten my workload.

I am wondering if this thread would be better in the general section. That way it can be Q&A, FAQ, and general discussion. But, like I said in the OP, this is a new concept to we will have to see how it evolves.

If you want to use anything other than a stock wallpaper for the lockscreen you need to have the Samsung gallery installed. The AOSP gallery is not compatible with the lockscreen for pics, or other images on your device.

Thanks for the answer!
Can more than one galleries coexists? If so, do I just select another one gallery in the Aroma installer and deselect all other options?
Im still kinda fuzzy on the modify/upgrade process within the installer.
Re: [Q&A][FAQ] CSROM and Graviton
Yes they can Co exist. I can't remember how many there are in aroma but you can download as many as you want. I have three not including quickpic

Just a mention,
I installed Light Flow Lite yesterday and toyed around with it. Long story short it broke the AOSP lock screen. By broke I mean any time I would put my phone into sleep then wake it up and interact with any function of the lock screen it would become unresponsive and reboot (fast reboot I think).
I was finally able to get out of it by bringing the notification window down and getting into settings. Disabled the lock screen and the device was fine. Uninstalled Light Flow and wiped the data with TB, but the lock screen is still broken. Haven't tried the touchwiz lock screen for fear of it being broken too.
Aside from that the batt life is amazing and everything works wonderfully. Even got another gallery installed via Aroma and can change the lock screen wallpaper (not that im using a lock screen right now).
Judman
Based on what I have read on this apps web site it wasn't meant for an aosp rom. That sounds like a matter of app not being compatible with the rom so I would say not the roms fault.
Glad you were able to get things back to normal.

You are the second or third user that had this happen. I will add a warning to the OP.
If I remember correctly, Light Flow works fine with the stock lockscreen. But you might want to wait until someone that actually uses it chimes in.

Thanks, I couldnt really find anything else that mentioned having that kind of trouble, but it definitely makes sense. And I wasnt blaming it on the ROM, just saying it was a side effect.
Maybe the mention will keep someone else from breaking their lock screen.
Again, thanks for the great rom!!

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.

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?

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.

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:

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.

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.

I have been unable to find a mod or a rom with call recording for the GS3 in T-Mobile. I have seen it available for Verizon only. Secondly i have tried Apps for this and the one i tried said my phone did not support up-link or down-link recording only Mic recording which required using speaker phone and well it didnt work for me.
So if thier is a mod or if you know of a rom that has this i would love to know i have searched yes and I fount nothing specific enough so as it should be my last resort is to ask everyone if they know.
So in Short I am looking for
A flash able mod
A Rom
or
An Application
That lets me record calls.
Also my Sig may not yet be updated i am running Hyperdrive ROM RLS14 with stock kernel.
Last but most of all Thank you for your help and for any devs reading this THANK YOU for your HARD work so others can enjoy it. I certainly do and it is Greatly appropriated. (is my nose brown? j/k)

The deTmobilized ROM has call recording built into it, you might try that one. :good:
We had this on several ICS builds. I'm sure it can be done, just someone has to try it. It's gonna be out of my league I already know!
As for apps, look into ?skvalex? Call recorder. He has a thread here on xda and several ways of implementing it. I believe it should work on our s3.

First sorry for posting in the wrong section.
Lastly Thank you for your reply's, the deTmobileized Rom was what got me interested as yes i used it with ICS and it worked flawlessly running wicked rom.
I loaded up deTmobileized Rom and i had several problems, i could not multi window to work properly I probably gave up on it too soon as my problem with the multi window was that it would not let me add newly installed apps to the menu. For me that sucked.)
I think ill make a backup of my current setup and flash it and see if i can get multi window to work the way i want.

I have installed the detmobileized rom as they say on the op that it supports call recording. I have yet to figure out if this is available with the rom natively or it just includes the patched phone apk libs (whis afaik is what is needed and basically needs to be in a rom or someone needs to make something flash-able AFAIK) I am thinking if the exposed module tweak box works ill try it out. I used it before and the CRT effects work so i hope the call recording works.
If the exposed module works i may switch roms the other rom i was liking at the moment is hyperdrive but i don't like the whole phone rotation (just something that bothers me unless its an app for some reason) and cant figure it out i can stop all rotation or enable all but i haven't gotten the right set of settings to just disable launcher and phone rotation.
So i am learning AFAIK detmobilized does not have the xposed framework natively installed (hyper-drive does) I need to check out and see how to get this working ASAP
As i wait for a possible reply from this post that would make me ecstatic. I believe i am going to first make a nandroid of the DeTmobilized rom (i just did a SD card wipe my phone needed it from so many rom changes) and then i will install hyperdrive and just install the tweakbox module and hope for the best (trying hyperdrive as DeTmobilized is kinda old at 2 months versus several days, although thats not a measure of quality Hyperdrive has all apps multi window already installed as i have yet to flash that.
Anyway im going to try stuff out I hope the Xposed method (sounds easiest) works on both roms in case it works on one better than the other.
Any other rom suggestions are welcome i dont have the time to flash everything although i prefer stick based roms as they usually have everything i want many i can even theme AOSP if i wish but they tend to be easier to work with more functions and they ususally all work. Also currently due to the GS4 and nexus app ports using AOSP based roms just make me lose any touchwiz options
Sorry for bloated post.
Thank for all your help I appreciate it.
A little background on why i need it currently. (unrelated to topic read if bored or if you know about housing foreclosure when it comes to tenants)
Code:
Basically life lol, Ill share it with you lol.
I basically rented a house for the last couple years and recently found out my landlord has not been paying the mortgage.
(other people say she has a drug problem and she has the mannerisms and talks like someone using speed type drugs)
at the beginning of this month we got a notice tacked on our front door
and it almost covered the door so many pages saying she has not paid blah blah blah.
the house is up for auction on the 28th (5 days from now),
I have a lease and the new owners have 2 options one, compy with the lease until it ends or if they decide on moving in we get 90 days
(Obama changed the 30 day to 90days thank god for me sorry for those with terrible tenants)
In all she says things that don't make sense and tends to deny ever saying it
(she may not remember for real)
So for my possible legal matters i need simultaneous recording of me and the other party.
I used Total recall and just did not know how to set it up and was able to get uplink recoding (just me talking)
(i know the legality of recording convos in my state county i have spoken to a lawyer on this issue)
Last thing that erks me about this lady is knowing she was not making payments she rented her other property
(not adjoining but behind my house)
to a single father who has a boy with leukemia She knew this from lease negotiations.
(idk how long he has or what his life expectancy was but as a youngster a friend of mine died at 21 from leukemia)
so it bothers me she would do that to someone.
not only that but she told him nothing and he had been making repairs
(he asked her if it was ok and she said go for it basically)
on the home and spending his own money to make it a nicer place to live not knowing he is wasting time and money.
all i have to say is he was livid
sadly this landlord AFAIK has no other assets than a car to a law suit would be fruitless
sorry i hope anyone who read this is not saying
(thanks for wasting 30 min of my life guy)

Call recording is an option in the mods of aroma installer

Looks like Project Goosh had xposed built in.
Z999 I think has it natively.
Personally I prefer the native kind (at least when I used it on ICS). No extra frameworks, and more importantly Samsung had actually built this in, but it was disabled because it was too many places have all different laws regarding its use.
I imagine its the same in JB.

Well Z99 works fine natively but is lackluster in a rom a want. I remembered hyper drive has xposed installed in the rom so i installed the call recording module (not tweak-box) i think they would work the same but i have no need for other options i simple installed the module and boom enabled the call recording no problem once call connects record button appears and saves recorded calls to sounds folder easy peasy (i spent more time messing around than i had too) I had trouble trying goosh then adding xposed as the record module did not work in all I am pleased all i had to do was simply add the xposed module. (too bad more roms don't just come with it just to make it easy but being a dev is not easy so i understand esp if it was that easy for me to fix) It would have been a lot more work tweaking z999 than adding a single module to hyperdrive. For me Deviant Dev puts out some nice roms. Goosh has some great potential if they add the xposed framework installer and use an aroma installer. Other than that i am happy and i thank you all for your help!
Being that I'm a noob (<10 posts), I can't post this in the actual ROM thread (mods, please move if you deem it appropriate).
I wanted to ask if there was a way in Google Edition 4.3 to change the clock settings to *NOT* display the hour in bold font?
Is that functionality available and I'm missing it in the settings?

Whenever you get a chance can you please let me know how's CM 10.2 working for you so far? I mean can that be used as a daily driver with major things (GPS, Bluetooth, NFL, camera etc) working without any issues. If so please let me know which nightly did you flash.
Thanks.

So far, CM 10.2 is rock-solid. I flashed The Sept 5 Nightly. Reason being - Friday gives me 2 days if something doesn't work.
I tried AOKP (too many options for me -- never thought I'd say that) and both Virgin and 'stock' GE (4.3) ROMs (a bit too stock for me).
I have so far set up email (GMail and Work using K-9 + Invitation Processor) and customized some options/appearance (cLock is da-shizznit). The camera works perfectly. I have not set up Bluetooth and not used GPS, yet, but will try both tomorrow on my way to/from work. One thing that I still need to figure out is the file-system layout inside Android (i.e. /storage/0 vs. /storage/legacy, etc...) as I'm apparently using 7.4GB out of 9.6GB available. This is probably because the stock T-Mo version left most of its guts behind and/or I incorrectly cleaned the device after having flashed all the ROMs.
One thing that I've noticed (with all the ROMs, except stock T-Mo) was that when you press the power button to lock/shut-off the screen, it ends up shutting off like an old-school TV. With the stock version, it would go dark seamlessly.
Regardless, I really enjoy having this phone now that I flashed CM on it. The fact that they provide an 'update-CM' option directly inside the settings is awesome in its own right. I'll update this thread once I give GPS and BT a run (can't promise I'll run TV apps on it, though -- that's not my cup-o-tea).
Best!
if you find certain things to be a bit buggy on CM, give Virgin Rom another try. the hardware elements of the phone work flawlessly. in an ideal world, someone would use Virgin Rom as a base and "Cyanogenize" it so that more things were customizable, such as Quick Setting toggles. CM is great, but the nightlies don't have the stability that the GE Roms have, obviously.
Thanks for your inputs...I guess back up of your old Roms may be eating up your internal space (if you have backed them up )...the old tv animation is the crt animation which Google introduced in ICS 4.0

Aaah! Good to know (about the TV animation).
I haven't backed up my old ROMs, but I'll definitely investigate space usage once I find some time.
Tested GPS and BT this morning: played a few songs over the car radio streaming over BT - awesome.
GPS is working good, too. I get a lock within 10 seconds of starting any app requiring GPS.
Thanks to all!

Even I flashed the RC2 last night. Using it for a few hours only, but it's rock solid as you mentioned.

KNOWN ISSUES
PESTS
Upon first boot, you may see SystemUI Force Close. Just tap OK and ignore. This will only happen once and has no adverse effects.
NFC Polling is not working
Battery Notifications is not working. If enabled, once fully charged it will cause the launcher to keep crashing until you unplug.
Sometimes, if accessed from Settings > Extras > Battery Style, 3minit Battery Settings will Force Close. I have noticed no adverse effects from this, but you can access this from the App and it will not happen.

thanks doc
Right on! Glad to hear the positive feedback! Been running great for me as well!
Hi Doc, Can I flash this rom using TWRP 2.7.0.0
I have not update yet since in your signature doesn't have the new zip file for this TWRP recovery.
So no Wifi Calling at this point?
I'm a patient guy.. Once thats ported over, its an instant flash!

Wifi calling cannot be ported. It is only available on tmobile based roms. Probably will never be on anything else. Sorry.

Yeah, I figured as much.. I have been to several T-Mobile stores while I was on vacation..
Every single one of the store managers claimed that T-Mobile is no longer interested in updating the T999 or the T999L only to focus on the S4 and S5... Not sure of the validity of their claims, but I'm hearing it a lot.. This port that You, enewman17, and loserskater appear to be our only hope at this point... I appreciate the work you continue on this device.. When I have the time I'll give it a flash.. Right now I'm on Carbon and quite happy, but miss the Wifi Calling.. I really should revert back to S3rx 3.0.. so many things I miss that ROM brought to us..
At this point, i cant argue that they are wrong about the update, but support and store employees are notorious for giving bad information. I do like the option of wifi calling, but can easily do without. Its just not like T-Mobile to do something like that. Especially lately with how they dont want to be outdone by other carriers in any regard.
Anyway, thats probably enough OT for now. If you need wifi calling in the future, S3Rx 3.0 would be an excellent choice!
Thanks for porting this Doc! thanks for not letting our phone die when it still has so much potential. Any plans for themes down the road? S5 UI would be great
Im not making plans right now. Too much going on. But keep watching S3Rx 4.0 and TMS3KK, both here and in AT&Ts forums. They are closely related and some things may end up working for both. The majority of the actual development is going on over at the AT&T threads though, so most things will get posted/released there first.
Ill post and keep things updated here of course, but actual development takes time at a computer that i just dont have lately. (Most of what i do is from a device while on the go). But who knows what lies a month down the road! Id love to get more involved with this stuff again!
Those if you who played around with my Sprint port may remember this btw, if you go to build.prop and change d2tmo to k2tmo, itll change some parts such as the toggles to S5 style.
Make sure you have signed into Google, and accessed the Play Store first though. If you make that change before, they may not work.

There are definitely plans for themes. I will be working on some in the near future. As for an s5 one, I believe someone has plans of working on one or will eventually.
Great work porting this doc. Look forward to helping you support this thread as well.

I know what you mean... When I travel long distances, I reflash the S3Rx 3.0 Rom..
But I never left home while I was on vacation, and Reno has pretty decent reception, EXCEPT, in the outskirts..
Like Carson City, and Virginia City where I got absolutely zippo, but no Wifi there either.. Driving in the desert and Zippo signal..
I seriously doubt anyone would build a cell tower in the middle of no where ya know
I just installed this ROM and whenever I boot up it tells me that my system uid is inconsistent. Any ideas?

First ive ever seen that! Im guessing you did a dirty flash an the most likely and probably best solution would be a factory reset.
However, a quick google search found this. Give it a try if you like.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2585160
Out of curiosity, what were you running before this and what recovery did you flash with?
U was running the kitkat sprint port. And I used philz because I couldn't get twrp to work. Kept failing.
