[copied from my development thread in the general section for easy finding of people unaware of that thread]
Ok I got all the bugs worked out and I think it's ready for public testing.
May i present the first ROM for the Motorola Bravo:
BravoX RC2 by bandroidX
Includes:
-Fully Deodexed Framework and Apps
--Deodexed means fully themeable
-Optimized/zip aligned apks
-Bloatware Removed:
--All ATT Bloat (except FM Radio app)
--Vlingo, Where and YP
--Vsuite voice commander is gone
-Atrix Forest Live Wallpaper (weather changing)
-Atrix ringtones and notifications
-Wifi Tethering is included
-New bootanimation thanks to heydabop!
-Minor tweaks/enhancements
-stock swype (deodexed) included
-you will retain root, superuser, busybox, and bravo recovery.
NOTE: if you have swype beta I would recommend uninstalling it first and ridding your phone of all swype beta files. then flash the rom, then remove the stock swype and its lib and then install swype beta. if you are using stock swype you can just flash the rom.
Instructions
1) Bootstrap Recovery using my bootstrap recovery app (found in the android market, now that I am done with the ROM I will focus on finishing the ad supported version of the app, for now please consider supporting my work and buying recovery from the market)
2) Perform a nandroid backup.
3) Dont wipe anything!
4) Select to flash the zip from your sdcard.
5) reboot. the update.zip will wipe your dalvik cache for you which will slow down your next boot, let it take a while, dont pull the battery.
6) Go to about and confirm it says bravoX RC2. The boot animation should be good proof the flash worked too

Enjoy! Consider flashing heydabop's battery mod, hopefully many more will use the rom as a starting point, i encourage you to make some cool flashable themes!
Loaded this on my brother's Bravo and so far its running great. Smooth and fast. Glad to see some development for Bravo users.
Here's a battery icon theme and an incomplete statusbar theme for bandroidx's ROM.

Battery icon looks great. I will load it onto his tomorrow.
I loaded the dark status bar mod and even with the dark clock I still think its awesome. I love the icons and the colors, they are super frigan cool.

@heydabop this looks great on the phone, thanks!
@ bandroidx I do have one problem. When I try to launch the camera app it closes by itself and a message appears briefly saying, "Oops, cannot open camera, please try again later." I wiped cache and dalvik again just to make sure. I also cleared app data for it under application tab and still have the same problem. You think I should wipe data/cache/dalvik and reflash rom?

Lets wait to see if any other testers have this problem, maybe its unrelated in some way.
actually, you flashed heydabops framework? he did have market problems at one point, i wonder if camera is also affected.
Can someone w/o the batt mod or status bar mod report back
and someone else with the mod?
I will check my phone in the meantime.

Ok I just tested and my camera works fine w/ RC2 + heydabops dark status bar.
can you run alogcat and send me the log?
My camera works with my status bar, tho I'm still on RC1.
I had the problem before flashing heydabop's icons. I've never ran a logcat. I'll look up how to do it and get it to you.

Nice. I just got this loaded onto my phone along with heydabop's theme and it looks great so far even though I'm still having problems trying to get rid of this "permanent" sliding lock screen and get back the option "allow apps from unknown sources" since that disappeared and I have no clue how to fix those two.
The mod works fine, though.
So far so good Bando! Thanks for it all. I'm needing a lesson on UOT kitchen now.

So I've been sitting at "Opening update package..." for about five minutes.. does it usually take a while or can I pull the battery or what?
EDIT:
I pulled the battery. Will try again.

PLEASE make sure to thank task650 for his dedication to this body of work
Thanks to all the members of XDA and Task's threads, credit goes to everyone as I have just taken info from users input and located it to one place. Thanks to you all for helping us learn everyday
.
Please read the OP in dev thread carefully on latest update, it has some very important info in it.
BUG REPORTING: Very minimal at least read the thread from the date of the update you are running. If you see a couple posts about a paticular bug then consider it noted by devs. They do read these. Remember if they can't duplicate the problem then they sure as hell can't fix it. IF you are going to report a bug - include the necessary information or it will be ignored.
thanks for understanding that after a few bug reports are made and i acknowledge them, that the unecessary 100 that follow are ridiculous. Task
Always read the OP. If it says full wipe then do a full wipe. If you don't follow the OP please don't post problems. This isn't helping anyone. Full wipe isn't a big deal. You can backup and restore your launcher settings with Nova or Apex, Backup and restore apps with Titanium backup(pro has the batch feature and is worth the money) and you can backup and restore most of your AOKP settings with AOKP backup. ***AOKP BACKUP can cause issues when restoring. If you have errors after restoring with AOKP BACKUP try the process again without using it.*** Using these three methods takes about 10 minutes. This is barebones backup/restore. If you have a lot of tweaks and kernel changes it will take you longer. So as stated in the OP if you have problems do a full wipe before you report any problems.
Read the change log. This will answer a multitude of questions.
This is for the AT&T version of the Galaxy S3. This rom may work on different variants of the phone, but as for now Task and Ktoon do not have the time to support other versions. If you are on a different version of the Galaxy S3 and report a bug please understand that this ROM is AT&T supported only.
This is just to help Task and Ktoon keep repetitive questions out of there thread. If any information in this post conflicts with Task and Ktoon's OP or ROM thread then ALWAYS follow their information first.
Below is am alphabetized list of FAQ, bugs, known issues and tips.
This is just a collection of answers that have been posted in the thread. Use as a guideline not as a rule of thumb. Always follow the OP.

Make sure you always have the latest recovery if you have problems flashing roms. See 17 of this posting.
Not all ROM control settings are back yet. As always this will take Task some time when updating to a new OS. Be patient. If you don't see it just "wait for it". See post 3 #3.
AOKP BACKUP
AOKP BACKUP is a great app for restoring most of your settings, but may cause some issues
Third party app not working properly
This ROM has nothing to to with 3rd party apps. You would need to contact the developer of those respective apps to get support for them. You also need to understand that not all apps support the Jellybean 4.4.x OS yet and need to be updated by the developers in order for them to work correctly. task650
Trying clearing data for that app
If you used TIBU to restore app, clear cache and data and delete the app and download it fresh from the Playstore.
Some people are reporting third party camera apps not working correctly and/or causing stock camera problems. This could be true for a number of third party apps that could be conflicting with system apps.
If any given app/process is giving you problems or fc'ing- try clearning data for that app and/or fixing permissions.
Make sure you have the app updated to latest version. The existing version may not be up to date for 4.2.X or whatever version the ROM is.
If your app won't sync or no notifications - try logging out and then back in. Or try deleting the account and add it back.
2g toggle
If you can't get your phone to wake up-
Hold down the power button for up to 30 seconds - it will restart. You should not have to pull the battery after using this step to restart. It does work and may take a few times for you to get it right.
BATTERY LIFE:
We all at some time have been proud or dissapointed in our battery life, but please keep battery stats out of the development thread.There are threads for this and the Development threads are not one of them.
There are way too many variables that influence battery life to be concerned with in a DEVELOPMENT thread. This has been stated daily by the Developers.
Install betterbatterystats and figure out if the problem could be something causing a wake lock keeping your phone from entering deep sleep.
Go here to discuss BBS wakelocks and read the how to in the app. It is very beneficial.
It is a known fact that it may take a couple charge cycles for your battery to calibrate and settle in. Also it should be known that these batteries do not need the data cleared for them. THEY WILL CALIBRATE THEMSELVES.
If you are getting over 3 hours of on screen time on a single charge that is nothing to complain about. IF you do see a post in the development thread about battery life, ignore it. Once again, no one uses their phone the same and their set up is probably not going to influence your phone significantly.
Sometimes an app or process is just sticking and a reboot will help.
You could possibly see battery showing charging when not plugged in or a dramatic change after a reboot. Once again this is just the battery fuel gauge recalibrating itself. This is normal.

Bugs/reporting
Bug reports should contain a logcat or information that would help. saying this doesn't work or this is happening doesn't help us at all and at that point belongs in Q&A. task 650
Some bugs are being reported by a few that Task, Ktoon and others are not seeing. Follow avidmovies notes below on trouble shooting/comprehensive reflash and Task's suggestion above on weird sh!t. Stick to the basics and see if problem is there still - such as stay with kernel that is included with rom, skip restoring anything with titanium back up, other words just try the basics and if a certain app has been giving you problems download it from the market instead of TIBU and see if problem still persists. Some apps have been reported to make ROM features malfunction.
If you had a spontanious reboot, we need the file last_kmsg from the /proc folder.
If you have n FC on an app, thats when we want a logcat
Guide on how to logcat. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1726238
All In One Android Logger > AIOlog

If you do not have the latest update of this rom consider it unsupported. This is why they update- to get rid of the bugs that we may be having on older versions.
BUG REPORTING: Very minimal at least read the thread from the date of the update you are running. If you see a couple posts about a paticular bug then consider it noted by Task. He does read these. Remember if he can't duplicate the problem then they sure as hell can't fix it. Bug reports without a logcat or a random reboots without a last_kmsg will be ignored.
"Thanks for understanding that after a few bug reports are made and I acknowledge them, that the unecessary 100 that follow are ridiculous." Task
Just follow this practice and you will be golden.
If you see a bug reported once - go ahead and report it again with a LOGCAT or proper info.
If you see a bug reported twice and you are seeing it consider it a known bug and the following will probably happen-
Task has the same problem or enough info from LOGCATS provided and will fix it or
Task is not having the problem and can do nothing about it unless a LOGCAT is given
Point here is Task can't fix problems with out the proper information.
"Be patient for the galaxy s3 settings to be fixed." Task --- Some stuff is taken out, left out or temporarily removed for good reason.
If you are going to report a problem, include some details. Kernel, UC/OC, circumstances, etc...
Once again TALKING about a bug without the proper info including either LOGCAT or last_kmsg is nothing but A WASTE OF TIME.
Read THIS posted in the development thread by Task.
HOW_TO_PROPERLY_REPORT_A_BUG
Please put logcats in a text file so it doesn't take up a whole page in the thread.
BLUETOOTH
If your phone switches to vibrate when you connect to bluetooth. Check here
Settings>Rom Control > Bluetooth A2DP connected action
No action
Vibrate Mode
Silent Mode
Bootloader
The I747UCDLK3 bootloader is needed from rom update 5-17 and on.
Instructions for updating to the LK3 BOOTLOADER are HERE
LK3 is not the latest bootloader but it is that one Task calls for.
Bootloader and modem(baseband) are not the same thing.
Use ROOTCHECKERto check what bootloader you are running.
Task has given instructions to Delete the bootloader assert from the updater-script HERE
Messing with bootloader can be dangerous to your phone - MAKE SURE YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE DOING.
Benchmark Scores
The devs have stated many times that these scores are BS. If you run a benchmark and want to discuss it, there are threads that are purely for discussing these random numbers. The development thread is not one of them.
Canadian
It has been reported that this rom works with the canadian version phone
Please understand that Task does not support canadian users because he does not have that phone.
Feel free to use his rom with the understanding that he does not support it.
GO HERE for help with LTE/Data problems using this ROM.
Reported that you must turn off LTE to tether.
CAPACITIVE BUTTONS
For instructions to disable capacitive buttons go HERE!
CM10
This is not a CM10 ROM nor is it based off one.
Comparing the two makes no sense. This is based off Google as is CM10. Other than that there is NO comparison. Please understand this. If something works or is in one rom doesn't mean it will work or is in the other.
If you want to compare CM10 and Tasks AOKP take it to the general section. A development thread is not the place for it.
CRT animation
If you put your animation speeds below .75 CRT will not work.
There are now toggles and more options for CRT - familiarize yourself with them.
DATA CONNECTION/SPEED
If you have no data after a flash, dont freak out.
Try rebooting
Make sure you have data toggle turned on.
Try toggling airplane mode
Check APNs.
If you have no APN's make sure your SIM card is in good and reboot.
If SIM card is not detected during a reboot - your APN'S will/could be blank.
DO you have your IMEI intact?
GO HERE for help with LTE/Data problems using this ROM.
DATA SPEED PROBLEMS
Data speed can vary greatly depending on user traffic and distance from towers.
SpeedTest app is not a reliable source of accurate data speed
The ATT APN is being phased out by ATT. You need to use the ATT LTE APN - task650
Network mode is for Canadian users only
Just because your stock ROM said 4G doesn't mean you actually had 4G/LTE. ATT roms report H/H+ as 4G where as this ROM gives you true data connection.
DATA Symbols
I flicker between H and 3g. AOKP shows true connection where as stock roms just show 4G. Also this rom controls data connection and kicks it down to 3G when not using data and kicks to H+ when you need it. This is a feature to save battery.
Blue symbols means you are connected to google servers - gray means you are not
Symbol equals>
G=GPRS
E=EDGE
3G=3G
H=HSDPA/HSPA
H+=HSDPA+/HSPA+
LTE=LTE
You must have d2att recovery to flash Task and Ktoon's JB rom or you will get error 7. task650
This is usually caused by a corrupt download, or bad file signature. Re-downloading (or re-signing) the ZIP will usually fix this - check MD5 sum.
Update or try a different recovery.
Remove the build assert in the updater-script.

Disable HW tick will not stick after reboot. This is the way it is suppose to be. This will still help with any type of flickering, usually.
If you are having some weird sh!t going on.
Redownload rom and gapps
Wipe data factory reset
Wipe dalvik and cache
In mounts and storage select Format System
Then flash rom and gapps
Reboot task650
Gapps
You must flash Gapps AFTER every flash of the ROM.
Use the Gapps in Task's OP or any Gapps package you want. They are just Google apps.
Sometimes you may have to flash Gapps twice - they have been notorious for not taking the first time.
Read the OP to see if a new version of gapps is required.
UPDATING APPS INCLUDED IN GAPPS
Delete app you are wanting to update with titanium back up.
Reboot
Install newer version of app
Google now
Phone language has to be set to english for google now to work.
My google apps are working correctly. If it was just the play store force closing all you would've needed to do is reflash gapps. gapps is notorious for not taking the first try. but you always have to flash gapps after a rom install and make sure to clear cache and dalvik. no issues should occur if those steps are taken. Task. Make sure you are using the correct gapps!
Task and Ktoon do not support google wallet. There are fixes available but don't ask Task or Ktoon to fix it.
You can't remove the google search bar with default launcher but you can with nova or apex.
GPS
GPS not working correctly isn't always the ROMS fault. Sometimes its the satellites.
Make sure you have internel GPS selected.
Try flashing original stock and then come back to this rom if you have flashed a TW based rom.
To change your number of home screens
You must use Apex or Nova launcher, possibly some other third party launcher. But the default launcher will not allow you to do this.
You must use Nova or a third paryt home screen to disable search bar.
If you flash other things like inverted gapps or change things from the original packaging of this rom and something goes wrong or doesnt work. Think about it. We cannot support those issues here. This thread is for this rom and gapps that are posted in the OP. Thanks. task650
Inverted gapps are awesome but not supported in Tasks thread.
If you are using inverted gapps and having problems - full wipe and reinstall rom and gapps in the OP and see if problem still persists.
Go here for support of inverted gapps. > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2138156
IRC
Task has started and IRC channel for his rom. ##Task650_AOKP
KERNEL:
If you are using any kernel other than the one packaged with this ROM please post questions and problems to the appropiate kernel thread.
you need to understand that all devices are NOT created equally. one kernel might work awesome on my device while at the same time it may work horrible on your device. so to say that Ktoonsez says it works awesome, that means it works awesome for him. It has nothing to do with how it will work for you. If the symptoms that you're talking about are happening with that kernel it's obvious that your device doesn't like that kernel. Easy fix. Use a different one.
If you are using Ktoon's awesome kernel and experiencing problems, try reflashing with the kernel included with this ROM and see if the problem still persists. This may help understanding if the problem is kernel or ROM related and will help benefit development of both.You can full wipe and reflash rom and gapps to be back on original kernel.
If you wish to run another kernel other than what comes with the rom, Task suggest loading rom with included kernel, set up phone, then flash the kernel you want.
Governor/IO scheduler
Change these in performace control in settings
If you do not tick set on boot they will revert upon reboot.
This is a safety check in so you can try settings out before you make them permanent.
Last report in Feb is that Task uses row and interactive as his settings.
LED
LED charging works exactly as it should.
0%-%10 = Red
%10-%90 = Yellow
%90-100 = Green
You can't change the colors for LED Charging unless you download the source and rewrite that portion of code.
You can only change the colors for the Notification LEDs not battery indication color.
Make sure you have "pulse notification light" checked - uncheck to turn LED notification off.
Some colors will not work. Test LED color before relying on it.
Go here for some LED color talk. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1890774
DO NOT USE LIGHTFLOW WITH THIS PHONE - DOESN'T WORK WELL. LED CONTROL WORKS FINE ON ITS OWN.

Please do not post links for Task's ROM or gapps. He wants to keep count of downloads. Thanks.
If you don't have LTE in your area it's not draining your battery.
AT&T is phasing out the old non LTE apn either way so we will all be using the same "LTE" apn. Network mode has nothing to do with you if your on AT&T service. That's only for the Canadians.
Also see 14 and 15 in FAQ post 1.
MD5 sum is located in goo.im via download link.
MODEMS
This ROM does not include a modem. You will have whatever you had.
Modems are location based. Try this and see which one works best for you.

Ringtones
There is not a repeating ringtone on this rom(AOKP). Get a longer ringtone if you want more notification.
Ringtones are located in system/media/audio/notificating or ringtones depending on what you are looking for.
You need to set the permissions to rw-r-r and then reboot.
More RomControl Settings added
It will take some time to get all the rom control settings back in, be patient. This happens after any new OS.
If you see a major update as in a new kernel or OS, some items will take some time to be added back.
ROM CONTROL: This is a very customizable rom, please spend some time and learn the many features it has.
ROM MANAGER APP
It is advised not to use ROM MANAGER APP. Notorious for causing problems.

SCREEN SHOT
To take a screen shot hold volume down and power button at the same time.
You can add screenshot option to the power menu.
Changing the color of Signal and wifi only changes the color in text mode.
SMS/MMS
MMS not downloading
Some suggestions offered that have helped people with MMS.
Add "hipri" in your APN type and save. This has been reported by several people to help.
This is being seen on several phones with different roms and even iphones. Call ATT.
Try auto retrieve on.
Set Authentication type to "none"
In text client make sure "auto retrieve" is checked in all boxes.
This ROM does not having a problems sending MMS. It is most likely an ATT problem. But you can double check your APN to make sure it is not on your end.
If you are using a third party app to SMS/MMS it is not supported by Task.
If you want to use the quick reply option make sure you have it checked in settings.
SOUND/VOLUME
If you are not getting sounds on something check your quite hours.
Make sure you have not accidentally toggled silent/vibrate.
Take a look at THIS in the play store. It's awesome.
Swag Pink hat - It's a joke. Either you have it or you don't. As cool as Task makes this phone he can't actually help you in this area.
Themes
If you are having graphical glitches and using a theme, try removing any theme and see if it still persists.
CM10 themes should work on this rom but if you encounter problems do not bring it to the thread.
Go HERE for themes.
Toggles
Are located in ROM control
The toggle for DATA is called SIGNAL
TOUCHWIZ FEATURES:
This is an AOSP rom, touchwiz(sammy) features are not incorporated into this rom. Reason you ask? Framework!!!
Chances are something you want from TW is probably in the app store.
Voicemail number missing. Use your call forwarding number.
Try this for ATT visual voicemail.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1641981
If your wifi won't stay on while phone goes to sleep check settings to keep on during sleep.
If your phone sometimes drops wifi check settings and uncheck avoid poor connections.
These are found under advanced settings in WIFI.
If you are having problems connecting or using tethering try changing your SSID and try unsecured.
Most of the time lack of WIFI connectivity is usually cause by router settings or router itself.
IF you are having wifi connections problems try rebooting your router.
ROGERS WIFI TETHER
Tether will not work on 4G/LTE unless you use a third party app.
Task can not test/fix since he obviously doesn't have a rogers phone.
Changing the color of WIFI/signal colors only changes the color in text mode.

Wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, and wipe dalvik cache, then go into mounts & storage and format system!!!
(If already on AOKP JB/CM10 you should be able to just wipe cache & dalvik. If you have ANY ISSUES, FULLY WIPE BEFORE POSTING IN THIS_THREAD!!!)
Flash ROM
Flash Gapps
Reboot
Troubleshooting/Comprehensive Re-flash
(Optional, but recommended) Back up any apps you may want restored (Titanium Backup's batch mode (a PROfeature) makes this painless! Set TB batch filters to User type only. DO NOT RESTORE SYSTEM DATA! Hell, don't even back them up.
Re-download the latest version of the ROM and Google Apps (even if it's the same version you have) from the OP. It's possible you may have a corrupted download.
Reboot into recovery. Follow the process below exactly, and there should be no NEED for a kernel cleaning script.
Wipe cache partition
Advanced > Wipe Dalvik Cache
(Optional, but recommended) Mounts and Storage > mount /system & /data
Install zip from sdcard > choose zip from sdcard (wherever you saved the download) > Flash [ROM] AOKP Task & Ktoonsez Run a Train (version)(TGFY ONLINE!!!).zip
(Optional, but recommended) Mounts and Storage > mount /system & /data
Install zip from sdcard > choose zip from sdcard (wherever you saved the download) > Flash gapps-jb-(version)-signed.zip Jelly bean version only
Reboot
PS. Sometimes all that is needed is a reboot again. Doesn't hurt to try it.
Test ROM, BEFORE restoring *any data* (if you did a full reset). DON'T RESTORE SYSTEM DATA! You have been told twice!
Fixing permissions in CWM/TWRP helps fix MANY *random* glitches.
If you still encounter problems, do a FULL reset ( Recovery > Wipe data/factory reset) & follow the steps again. THEN, you can report issues!
You may have to redownload ROM and/or Gapps. Sometimes you can get a corrupt download that will cause issues. It happens.

I get the "AOKP Statistic" all the time. Clicked on it (was disabled by default) and closed it.
Unfortunately it came back after a few minutes. So I enabled and then disabled it. No change.
Anyone solved zhis problem or does anyone experienced the same?

Do not have that problem I would redownload the ROM and do a fresh install aka a a full wipe off all data that tis the first thing to do and see if fixes the problem.

It will work but not to the full potential that it has on TW based roms. I believe it will not speak back plus a few other bugs.
If you would like something like svoice but on an aosp rom then I'd suggest trying cm10 and using google now.
I flashed the rom last night but when I woke up, I noticed my contacts still did not sync their pics with Facebook. Is this a known issue? It's not a big deal, but I prefer to have contact pics.

Not heard of before, however fb has never been stable w/ Android. You will find most cases devs will not include w/ rom builds, for that reason
Alright I'm a little confused here. From what I can tell, everyone seems to indicate the Camera is working 100% - but it's still FC'ing for me. It opens fine, shows the live preview for about 2-3 seconds, then force closes.
My install procedure:
Latest CWM recovery (non-touch)
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik
Wide data/factory reset
Install AOKP (latest 07-16 build)
Install gapps (ics 04-29)
Reboot
Didn't touch a single setting in the ROM.
I've done this twice and the FC'ing persists.
Am I missing something, or could this be related to the fact that I have an I747M (Bell)?

Yeah fb sucks for the most part, but with touchwiz, it syncs contact pics pretty much instantly.
On aokp, I just have tons of gray squares instead of the pics. I did a fresh install, and I still get the same thing happening.
Does the ktoonsez aosp kernel work better with this rom than the one that is included?

CNAM Name Caller id for Rogers
Great ROM....just one issue for me
Rogers exclusive in Canada "name caller id" has issues. When call is received from someone who is NOT listed in contacts, I still get NAME of the person calling but Name doesn't stick in LOG and only number shows afterwords.
It works fine in stock ROM.
Can that be fixed? I can commit 5/6 beers as I know its your time. Thanks

Try this full wipe flash rom. Don't instal gapps. Boot the phone see if the camera works. If it does then clear cache and dalvik then flash gapps.

Is there any way to reformat my 64gb microSD to FAT32 without a USB reader? AOKP doesn't want to recognize my card in exFAT it seems.
I know there's the SGS3 UMS app, but I don't think it works for AT&T phones.
Aanyone seen any icon packs for the lockscreen? Chrome is the only icon that doesn't follow the same theme as the other icons on the lock screen. I found a post in the nexus forums where someone made some icons for the lock screen but whenever I try to choose one of those icons it fails asking me if I am sure my SD card is mounted

Samsung camera app requires touchwiz. Aosp based roms like aokp do not have touchwiz
I am on phone so expect errors
I've looked through the forums for hours now and according to the noob video made by xda. I'm asking for help. I have an at&t Samsung galaxy s3 with the CyanogenMod installed (as the title implies) and to be honest its not worth the hastle. I'm having problems left and right. First off, the camera app that comes with the phone is missing. Or if theres a custom one. Its not included. I'm aware that I can find and install an external apk but I'll get to the problem with that in a bit. I followed very detailed instructions on installing the cyanogenmod and gapps and everything was fine (stable version) but the notifications suggested I update the mod so I did. Now I have the camera but my play store will not work. It opens for a split second then closes. Also, the file manager is gone. So I downloaded multiple file managers and it seems after first use that they can no longer open anything. I can't even access the files. I checked the superuser allowed and disallowed apps and everything seems fine. Now with the apk problem. Almost any apk I download will not install on my phone. Sorry for the erratic problems just jumbled everywhere in this post but I'm using my phone to write this so its a bit difficult to organize. Any feedback would greatly be appreciated. A link to a post already like this (which I couldn't find) or a link to a tutorial maybe or troubleshooting these problems. I will delete this post as soon as I find a solution so I don't use up space on the forums with a somewhat personal problem. Thanks in advance!

Go in application settings and delete your play store's data/cache. That should fix it.
Without it, it's kinda hard to install apps unless you sideload. If you do sideload, you need to allow it in your settings (security I believe).
if you're using the stable version of CM
you might have to go to Date & Time setting
and fix the date on there in order to make play store works
and everything you say about camera, it is weird indeed because not only CM, every rom out there should include a camera app
if that problem still exists for you, you might want to clean/wipe everything, from cache to system and then flash the rom again
Thank you guys. I tried wiping the cache and it still didn't work. I don't mind side loading which is what I've been doing but its not ideal. I can only search for the exact app(s) I want rather than exploring via play store. Also, you guys didn't mention the problem with the file managers not working after first try. If you have any feedback it'd be great. I would like to keep the cyanogenmod but its just not worth the time and effort (opinion). If I can't fix the problem or find a solution I'll just go back to my phones stock UI because even though I think flashing ROMs is awesome. It really isn't worth frustrating myself with something that's an option and not a necessity. Thanks in advance for feedback.

the file manager part is really weird.
if you clean install, especially the stable version, everything should works just fine
however, it sounds like bad install though
how about this this
Download Titanium Backup and wipe data + cache for file manager only and see if it works
if not, try the longer way
download stock att rom(4.1.1)
go to recovery, wipe everything
go to download mode
flash stock rom with odin
restart to recovery, wipe dalvik and cache
root the phone
Re-Download CM10 stable
go to recovery, wipe everything, including System
flash cm10
reboot and see if everything works
Yeah I've tried a factory reset. It only deleted my user data not really resetting the phone. Thank you pcchano (sorry if I got name wrong) I'll try and erase everything and reinstall from scratch but its not my first time using custom ROMs so I'm sure I did it right but I'll give it a go. Also, someone told me that I need to completely wipe any data associated with Google wallet before I root or else play store will not work. Has anyone tried out this theory or know anything about it? It doesn't make sense to me seeing as wallet is saved server side beside the basic user data stored on the phone. But please let me know. You guys are all very helpful thanks for the feedback.

Also, I've never had to wipe dalvik before? Could that be my problem? I also noticed that when I updated cm the info panel said 'experimental' even though I chose the stable version to start with? Could some of these problems be associated with cm rather than blaming it on my phone? Thanks in advance for any feedback.

i have like 2 s3 using CM10 stable version and no problem with it (other than the play store wouldn't connect due to the date in setting wasn't correct) while I myself am using CM10.1 and other than the bugs that come with CM10.1 or google source code, it is a functional rom
so i would rather say, it is your phone
and you should always wipe dalvik cache along with cache partition before flashing new rom.
OK pcshano thanks very much. I'll just erase everything and start from scratch. Thanks everyone who helped me. This forum and you people are awesome. I'll delete this post as soon as I reinstall the ROM to make sure it worked. Thanks again!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747
The stable cm is of the 10 variety. The experimental builds are 10.1 if I'm not mistaken. In which case you should only need to flash the appropriate gapps package to get the play store functioning and camera as well. The file manager issue I don't know beyond the external sd card being a bit sketchy on 4.2 builds. Are you using an external sd card? Start with a fresh flash of 10.1 if you want to go with that, flash a 4.2 gapps zip and see what happens from there.

What this rom is.[/COLOR]
===========[/SIZE]
This a rebuilt stock deodexed rooted base, with some added csc tweaks and build.prop tweaks.
I have also updated the apps to their latest versions and included a couple extra Google apps (keep, and voice). Also included is
Mi FileExplorer, and Adobe Flash.
But this rom will be kept as the stock Touchwiz feel, I didn't like the way it was debloated by some so I decided to do it myself. And
I like the result.
Some of the features added
=================
Flash Player preinstalled and working - Apk Thread Here Thanks to stempox.
Browser has the user agent set to desktop by default
Browser exit option
Browser Bookmarks are editable
Carrier IQ removed (I consider that a feature lol)
Internet tweaks
4 way reboot - Credit to bryan2894
data/app folder for uninstallation of extra apps
proper root and busybox
Removed Preload Folder
data/app support
HD/off screen playback youtube - credit to theos0o
It does not have (yet)
=============
Unrestricted tethering/data cap (coming to a future build, i wanna take my time with smali editing though... its been a while)
Any kernel changes (never will, you can flash your own[I flash Tiberius])
Volume rocker wake (I hate it)
Flashbar (The amount of info on this is dang near nonexistant, so any help would be appreciated)

THREAD RULES
============
i have some ground rules i wanna throw out early on so that everyone knows. I know there are rules and guidelines on xda about searching and whatnot before you post blah blah blah.
screw that... in this thread these are my guidelines (xda is total law over these obviously... what a mod says goes...) i suggest.
1. chit chat is cool as long as it semi-pertains to this rom. I've gotten great ideas and suggestions from chit chat.
2. if a total noob asks a total noob question, don't rip his/her ass for it. answer it or stfu and i will answer it. I don't care if the answer was one page back or in the op... be nice about it.
3. suggestions, feedback, and criticism negative or positive is encouraged. ESPECIALLY NEGATIVE CRITICISM. i'm super serious. the whole point of the rom is to rid all of the crap that annoys you.
4. I will always update the OP (original post, first post) whenever there is an update. and while i am working on the rom i update it super often (every few mins sometimes)..
5. eta requests are allowed.. and ill give one... but know that the e in eta stands for estimated.

try the new build, its completely rebuilt, but as an fyi on the 1.0.0 version the playstore was working for me and phonesky.apk is in the preload folder and updated, along with gmscore and the others. also if you didnt let it settle for a couple minutes that may have been an issue. just try the 1.0.1 and lemme know. im running it now with no issues.
having trouble with superuser not asking for permissions on apps, any suggestions?
thank you for pointing that out. it may be the version of superuser, im gonna try another one and get another build out tonight.

yeah n/p ill remove the startup sound this go round, im deodexing again with the kitchen but this time im rooting with chainfire instead of chainsdd. manually replacing the superuser.apk and su binary fixes the root issue, i still want to let it finish deodexing the new build for that fresh build taste though. his superuser asks for an update on boot tho in the play store, so im gonna bundle it in so it doesnt ask.

Hmmm, flashed the latest and still no Play Store. I am also not able to add a Google account. I waited 15 minutes after flashing. I am using Clockwork Recovery. I get stuck on the boot screen us TWRP. I did the appropriate wipes before flashing and cleared caches after.

4.1.2 is havinf trouble when wiping caches afterward, either dont wipe or use the cache wipe file from Jamison904. i dont wipe after flash anymore now...hope this helps
here is the link to it...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2235141.
just a helpful pointer if you think it gets stuck after wiping cache on twrp, it stays on the end of that loading bar what seems like forever but eventually does boot, so try giving it a little time, you may be thinking its stuck when its not. shouldnt take longer than 5 mins though.
btw new build is uploading now. root and flashplayer are working.
edit.... please read second post, the wipe scripts should solve our issues.
if i'm on ICS stock rooted, can i flash this in TWR to switch on over to JB?

i would reccomend you flash the newest radio beforehand for no issues (radios can be found here) UVMC6 should be at the top, also be sure to nandroid a backup first.
(note, im not certain if the radio is required, but its the way im using it, perhaps someone can clarify.)
Also... New build up... this should be the one to rule them all, very careful tweaking from here on out. please let me know of any issues you can find, also be mindful of how you wipe due to the symlink partition (read post 2)...
that being said i wiped normally even after flashing a kernel and i am not having any issues other than having to log into my google account again. and thats only when i wipe through twrp. but it does boot regardless if you wait. using the scripts should eliminate that problem though.
reflashed after downloading from my dev host link through the phone and i can flash dalvik cache and cache just fine again through twrp. so this is looking very promising and should turn out to be a stable base.
installed just fine, setup went good has superuser..set up to my liking now, using tiberus kernel with kernel tuner set both cores to max=1836 min=192, smartassv2, scheduler=row, and sd to 4096..only have internal sd so ( dont know if that matters but placebo effect makes me think it does...lol )......no volume rocker wake=awesome...no boot up or shut down sound=awesome.....steup screen to 220 density.....rebooted into TRWP recovery wiped cache/dalvik cache using Twrp advance wipe option installed miui player, s-voice, and transparent accuweather widget...running smooth and fast, wifi calling works...will report back after some more time but for now running great...awesome work, Thank You for the hard work!!!!
I decided to update the optimized stock rom that @negamann303 made and some of you are a fan of.
Features:
Based on NWD1.171016.002 - Wear 2.0 - Android 7.1.1
Stock kernel
Optional root/busybox package that will install root and busybox 1.28.1
Same build.prop additions as NegaLite Huawei-Rom NX 2 v 1.2 (including ADB debugging pre-enabled)
Removed Google Fit from /system (download from Play Store if you want it)
Removed the tutorial that appears when you enable wrist gestures (but not the tutorial that happens when you first set up the watch)
Changelog:
v 0.2
Actually installs stock kernel instead of the rooted kernel I accidentally put in v 0.1
v 0.1:
Initial release
Install Instructions:
Factory reset in TWRP (optional, but recommended)
Flash rom
Flash root/busybox package if desired
Note: The first boot takes a looooong time.
Note 2: The SuperSu/Busybox package tells you that it's installing an older version of busybox than what I listed. Don't pay attention to it. If you want to make sure I'm honest just do adb shell, then su, then busybox.
Download v 0.2: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=962187416754467969
Download SuperSu and Busybox package: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=962187416754466211
Download Busybox only package for those who want to use Magisk (personally, I don't see the point of using Magisk on a watch that doesn't need to pass safetynet, but to each their own): https://github.com/yashdsaraf/bb-bot/releases/tag/v1.28.1-YDS-201803061707 (flash the universal zip)
Requests are welcome. Keep in mind that since Android Wear is not fully open source, our power to change it is relatively limited.

It's really nice to see the new rom for HW1!
If this rom can have lower brightness for ambient mode, I would love to test the rom!!!
Amazing rom
Thanks for the effort.
I will give it a try when I find some free time.

According to the quick Google search that I did, it looks like this is controlled by the Android system framework. It's not as easy as changing a build property or telling settings to do something different. So unfortunately it doesn't look like it's something I can change, but if anyone finds any other information on it I'll definitely take a look.
Thanks a lot for continuing his work. Will be testing out on my watch soon.

Thank you very much for doing this rom, look forward to using my watch again as I haven't used it in months.
It seems this build still installs the "rooted kernel" (that contains SuperSU binaries and configurations), which in turn blocks installation of Magisk (same as the original NX rom), as the two root solutions aren't compatible.
Guess I'll have to work around it using the hard way for now. It's better if the kernel can be made rootless so one can choose to install either SuperSU or Magisk.
EDIT: Got everything working: ROM, Magisk, and Busybox (installed using this one).
EDIT 2: It seems the Daily Tracking is working on this version, as on Explorer watch face the steps and kcals are properly registered just like on Android Wear 1.5.

Oops. You're right. Sorry about that. I'll fix it this evening.
Source?
Where did you get the source?
i want to start making roms with the AOSP.
Omg. You are the man negast33v. Thanks for keeping this watch alive.

I didn't get the source. In fact I didn't do much at all. I took the stock rom, put negamann's build.prop tweaks in it and put together the optional root package. That's about it, because that's about all that was done to negamann's original rom.
When you say the first boot takes a long time, how long are we talking? I'm testing something with my watch, so I already expect it to fail. I want to know so that I don't wait for hours when it should have been done in 20 minutes, which would mean my test has failed.

This is correct! That is why I typically spent more time on the kernel.

Definitely not hours. 5-10 minutes I'd say.
Does someone want to try using the negamann kernel with this rom? It might work. I'm not sure and I don't feel like testing it.

Hey,
I tried it, it doesn't work, it just hangs on the Android logo, waited over an hour, rebooted, nothing. Will not boot.
Edit: this is what I tried: negalite_kernel_HW_dffc4c0-2.0.zip - 6/7/2017
Edit 2: Just tried again, this time I cleared cache/dalvik and even so its just been on the Android animation for over an hour, and the watch has become really hot...Going to go back to stock kernal.
