Hi Everyone,
I was wondering if their was any way to get the latest google apps found in 4.0.3 on a stock build of 4.0.2? I'm currently rooted, but I don't want to flash a custom rom just yet. I know I'm crazy Thanks for any input.
Anyone?

I thought the same thing, but when I used a 4.0.3 rom the Google+ app had a different icon and had some bug fixes that I currently have with the latest version of the app in 4.0.2.
Is there an ad blocker for unrooted S3? All I found was for rooted phones

Impossible for unrooted device.
Need to root 1st
Firefox for Android has Adblocker add on now. Probably for unrooted.
Obviously only for web surfing.

Just what I was afraid of
Thnx guys anyway.
Work around.
Root phone install add blocker run it and let it change hosts file .
Run Triangle Away and then remove root by flashing stock kernel.

I seem to remember a way of blocking ads on the Transformer Prime without root using a trick with connecting to the internet through a proxy or something. I'll have a look around to find the thread and link it in a bit. Hopefully the principles are the same.

here is the link, should work with the S3
Try Mozilla Firefox with ad free add on

read the title
Try Adblock Plus
Try Adblock plus,i used it when my phone was unrooted not all ads were removed but it was quiet effective,but it will only block ads on wi-fi
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwxLDEsIm9yZy5hZGJsb2NrcGx1cy5hbmRyb2lkIl0.
i think adblock plus is an adblocker only for the mozilla browser. it won't block ads from apps and games.
root is recommended in android.

Has anyone noticed that replacing the hosts file with one that blocks ads doesn't work on the GS3? The same hosts file works fine on my GS2.

which is? about the adblocker? or about the root? hehehe.
if adblock plus also blocks ads from apps and games, then that's the answer to OP's quesion.
both, actually. root is not recommended I'd you don't know what you need it for and you're not sure what to do

The only way I've found is to modify each app. Many apps only work properly if they get their ad feed. modifying paid apps is almost certainly against the licence you accepted when you bought it. rooting is the only way to block ads for all apps and browsers, even then many google/facebook etc.

Anyone know a way to block apps from seeing root? My work requires an app to get access to the exchange server, but it checks to see if I'm rooted. I reverted back to stock after not finding a good solution, but I miss CM so I'm hoping there's a way...

I think (keyword:think) MIUI from Notorious has that option. You could try that.
Be sure to read your company's policy though, because it may be illegal to do that.

Great idea, but would that stop the app from running as root or checking for root? My company app doesn't need root to run but it checks randomly for root access....

My bad, I think it only blocks root on a per app basis. Your companies' server will probably still see phone root access.

From my understanding, it may or may not work with CM type ROMs.

Looking for a ROM close to stock no bloatware with tethering and call recording.
Any recommendations? Im not looking for fancy art and blue font. I've downloaded a few already that suck.
Just got my note 3 today. Would like to root and install a ROM just as you mentioned. Stock with working tether and ability to delete the bloat I dont want.

Why not use stock rooted and customize it with xposed? Tethering has a workaround on this forum that seems to work for many people and using xposed with wanam you can enable call recording. Use titanium backup to freeze any apps you don't want.

Flash any rom in recovery and then flash this

afterwards to get rid of 600+MB of bloatware, the option is yours on what you want to remove.

Cool thanks +3, would also like to upgrade to 4.4.2 or 4.4.3.
xposed seems to crash my system every time I try to install it.
Id hold off on flashing non tmobile 4.4.2 til an official release, else youll be stuck on that bootloader for awhile. Im thinking we should see an official release of 4.4.2 soon..

This is not true, I have Vision 4.4.2 built and working, and you can roll back to 4.3 no problem....and when this so called official release does hit, that would be the one that will lock you into 4.4.2, until a dev gets ahold of it and does their thing. Be careful....
You do NOT want to do an upgrade over the phone, that is a sure way to get stuck on 4.4.2.......

WiFi tether router by Fabio. Search on the play store, costs 2 bucks or so and totally worth it. Follow his directions on his page, there's a link from the play store.

Wicked V5 and chose the stock theme in Aroma..... you don't have to activate X posed or Wanam if you don't want to. I think it's as close to debloated/stock and stable you can get. Everything works fine for me. No crashes/no FC's nothing. Wifi calling/tethering. ..... and then you can flash DD Blacked out stock theme and it's just Tits.......

We just don't get it. Old Xperia L could play it, but the S3 get's no love on the game for some reason,.
Its an issue with 4.3 on the S3 and I don't know why they haven't been able to fix it. I did get it to run a while back but had to install an older version that I knew worked because I used to run it
Yeah the older versions worked perfectly but the new one is not.

This new versions been out for a while. I dont think theyre doing a bug fix.
Ps: does anyone know how to disable the update notification in the old versions. i cant play with data/wifi on because it keep bugging me to update to the new version. it takes me to the market and as you know its "incompetible"
If enough people email the dev it might motivate them to fix it. Especially if everyone starts demanding refunds and leaving poor reviews. No guarantee of course, but its more guaranteed that nothing will happen if no one tries to make it happen!
In app manager most apps have a checkbox for display notifications. Maybe that'll help?

And about the updates I just disabled WiFi and data was off so no update nag lol but you can try app ops and see if you can deny internet access to it

Its a notification that shows when you open the app, and if you don't update it you can't play it

I have found a solution. I was browsing Samsung's galaxy app store and saw asphalt 8 being featured so I was like what the hay, so I installed it and it runs perfectly! Maybe they forgot to unblock the S3 from when it was having problems at Google play? Anyways give it a try!
