Hi all,
I've scoured the forum for quite some time now and have tried a number of newish ROMs (those posted in May) but have not found any that are compatible with Ktoonsez's latest kernel. A lot of people have advised against overclocking but my GS3 certainly performs better with OC enabled. I flashed one of Jamison's nightlies months ago and it has been the most stable/reliable out of any ROM I've tested since. I either got lucky and found the perfect ROM for my phone or I just haven't found a solid new ROM that supports OC'ing. I've had random reboots, force closes, etc. with all the new ROMs I've tried so I was hoping someone could give me some ideas on a ROM/kernel combination that might work for me. The only reason I even want to change my current ROM is because many of my Google apps report that an update is available, but when I go to update, my "device doesn't support this version." It's quite frustrating and a pretty sad reason to switch ROMs when literally EVERYTHING else works flawlessly, but it is a problem for me and I'd like to be able to stay up to date. Sorry for the long post, but anyone with advice would be wonderful. Thanks!
You need a kernel that support OC, its not ROM specific.. You do however, need to check kernel's description to which base it works with.. Sometimes they will have one for just touchwiz or touchwiz and aosp, thats pretty much the main thing to look for and just try different ones.. It should also say if its OC able or not

does anyone know, or have a reason, or encounted in a problem with CM 10.1 cuz i recently installed CM 10.1 stable on my ATT S3 and it keeps restarting itself after 20/30 minutes tops, maybe longer but once in a while it randomly restarts itself
installed everything perfectly, no reason to be acting crazy since its from CYANOGENMOD TEAM but ROMS are not perfect or as good as STOCK ROMS (that come pre-installed on your device)
any issues, bugs, any kind of thing you have noticed with cm 10.1 yu can post it here
new upcoming features, fixes, what should be there or shouldnt be there, whats missing everything
HELPING EACH OTHER SOLVE SIMPLE/SERIOUS with CM 10.1 and above ISSUES
am currently running Synergy ROM 4.1.2 Stock rom with ZIGGY KERNEL (clocked at 1.3 Ghz) and its pretty sweet, stable, good battery, perfomance is top notch for a stock based rom that come with all samsung boatload
SO DUMP ALL THE PROBLEMS/SOLUTIONS IN THIS NEW THREAD FOR CM 10.1 AND ABOVE - ATT S3 I747
ANYTHING YU THINK IS COOL/AWSOME ABUT CM 10.1 ON YOUR AWSOME S3 GET IT HERE
Or just post them in this thread which already gets developer support.

Not all phones are created equal. You should try the newer nightlies since they're just as stable. I haven't had any issues with Cyanogenmod. The reboot bug has been squashed a couple of months ago for me.

thanks for that, but this thread is based on everything to do with cyanogenmod 10.1 and above, clearly i am not a fan of nightlies as to do with updating my phone every second (thats a hustle for me cuz i gotta backup everything/reinstall everything again) and not to mention i have better things to do than just updating to a new bulds everyday or trying new roms
ihave too much variable things on my phone to delete for reasons like nightlies
THE REBOOT BUG STILL exists quite suprisingly for me as you dont have problems with nightlies or the reboot bug too
the thread yu mentioned is helpful but new ideas, new thoughts, easy to find a solution for a problem/question and navigate easly without having to dig it up tens of pages, a new thread with new people/same but fast replies, nice to workaround with.
am not trying to break any XDA rules/regulations or whatsoever by posting/asking a question or starting a thread thats already there(content and information that i need) but a new thread thats clean, new ideas about the rom, new problems/solutions is what this thread is all about
PHONES COULD BE EQAUL BUT ROMS ARE NOT SAME/DONT WORK SAME ON XXXXX PHONE

First and foremost, no OS or software, including android, is perfect. Secondly starting a new thread does not mean it will not get "cluttered" either. The ROM thread for CM is not as bad as you make it out to be. The idea is that the newest material covers the most recent nightlies. It is not that difficult to go to the end and work backwards. In regards to you random reboots, look on JIRA as it exists for this very reason. Take a logcat and report on JIRA if not already covered. JIRA gives you all the bugs reported and their current status towards a fix. This is a wasted thread for this very reason.
As far as ROMs being different...that is the point. Each developer(s) put their own spin on it. That is what makes these development threads so great. You can look for a ROM that you like best. Some ROMs are more universal (but you still need your device specific version), such as CM, while others are device specific.
And phones are not created equal. They may look the same, have the same hardware specs, and all else seemingly equal, but slight manufacturing imperfections make them different. Two people can have the exact same phone from the same carrier, manufactured on the same day, but due to some ever so slight differences from imperfections, ROMs will work differently on each. For instance, in your case CM reboots randomly. For others, such as myself, this is no longer an issue. However, it is possible that another ROM will work great on your phone but not on mine.
While you say CM is not perfect like the stock rom, the stock rom is not perfect either. I have AT&T and the stock rom has several issues. The lockscreen securities can be bypassed, the alarm likes to not work at random times (software bug), and every now and then I get a battery plummet after a phone call when the phone switches between 4G and 4G LTE. Others may or may not have these issues but they seem to be rather common (the security bypass affects all S3 phones that were on 4.1.1 that I am aware of). For this reason I stick to custom roms because I do not have these problems which I personally view as severe for me (Aside from protecting my data and enjoying battery life, I rely on my phone as an alarm clock). Now that 4.2.2 has come as far as it has, it is stable enough that I can use it as a daily driver. I knowingly accept any bugs that are there because typically the ones that exist do not have a large affect on me, if at all, unlike the stock rom.
Hello Everyone,
This is only to share what I found after weeks of searching (after posting a question a kind gentleman referred me to it) that works with both the Canadian variant of the t0lte T889V and the T-Mobile version itself (t0lte: haven't tried it since I don't own the phone however it's stated in the posts that it works).
After trying it for a few weeks now it's very smooth, has a control environment that modifies OC, UV, GPU OC, etc with one click depending on profiles, etc.

Make sure to chose the correct version depending on your phone.
Cheers everyone and hope this helps!

Thank you. I hadn't seen it though, and I was trying to find a kernel that would allow OC'ing with 4.4.2. I found others though and thought it may help anyone who would need it.
But thank you again!

From what I am reading, I understand that you tried this with T889V. But for sanity purposes and sake of completeness I want to ask the following:
The Agni kernel was flashed on T889V and in the last couple months you have had it, you have not noticed any glitches/issues?

Hi there,
Yes, I have flashed on my T889V a few months back, since I wanted a kernel that would allow me to OC a bit, use fast charge for USB since I don't have a wall plug always available to me etc. Over the past few months it has worked flawlessly, I haven't had any issues whatsoever. I find my phone runs much smoother that it did before, it charges way quicker and given I haven't OC'ed it to the max allowed, it never randomly reboots or anything. Given I have added a bunch of mod apps such as viper4android for sounds and others that use a lot of ressources, it works perfectly for me, I never have any lags. I don't know if there is anything specific u would like me to tell u about, if so please let me know and I will.
Cheers

Thanks for all the info. I do have a few more questions.
How is the battery life? The biggest issue I found with custom roms and stock kernel was that battery life was terrible. It would drop a percentage roughly every minute and a half the screen was on.
Which Rom are you using this kernel with?
Which recovery did you end up using? CWM, TWRP or Phillz?
Also, did you root the phone with CF-Autoroot or SuperUser?
I had issues with whatsapp when I rooted my phone (I could not download pictures, but could send them). Went back to stock as I use whatsapp a lot.
My pleasure! As for my set up, it's stock Touchwiz 4.4.2 running Agni kernel. The app it comes with allows for several customizations, both battery friendly and performance friendly, but what I use if the above stock overclocking and a little. The governor and I/O scheduler are part of settings that the creator of Agni has, which works very well for me. As for battery, it lasts pretty much all day.. I use the phone for about 3 to 4 hours of voice, read a lot with it and text/youtube/listening to podcasts/casting video etc, and it lasts all day long. I charge my phone nightly, and goes from the morning at 100% to night time (around 9pm) at about 35% - 40%. I use philz, and rooted the phone with philz after flashing the recovery through Odin; I've never used CF auto root. After rooting the phone, I installed superSU and my phone runs very very smoothly. I used (in the past) Omni on this phone, and it used to work perfectly.. I had issues with netflix and the gallery, so I stuck to it for a few months but got tired of AOSP and went back to Touchwiz.. I personally prefer it.
Hope it helps, cheers!

Thanks for that. Now I know the process I can try to get better results with a custom kernel.
Lastly, are you running your T889V on Videotron? If so, have you updated your phone with the new stock firmware (T889VVLUDNH2) from Samsung? The T889VVLUDNH2 appears to be a modem only update for T889V, but I can't be sure as I have not found any official change log by Samsung.
In any case, I was wondering if the update enabled any LTE bands (specifically LTE Band 4 - the AWS LTE Band) on the T889V. The update seems to coincide with the LTE network that Videotron launched last month (Sept 2014).
Are you getting LTE speeds on your T889V?

I have tried CM11 and Omni 4.4.4 roms and it appears that the phone loses:
1) its model number (no big deal),
2) carrier id just shows US (would be useful to have real operator for roaming),
3) and lastly, does not show the type of data network it is connected to. Just shows bars, no E, 3G etc. Also, it show LTE in network options, but not WCDMA/GSM, since the phone does not have LTE. I would like too see the network I am connected to.
Any help would be much appreciated.

The only think I can think of is that since you're no longer running TouchWIz but AOSP, the Kernel might have compatibility issues. From what I read before when I was using this phone as my daily driver, this kernel was meant for TW roms, but since CM and Omni are AOSP, I figure some things might not be compatible. If I'm not mistaken, the creator of the kernel has a version called pure AOSP rather than this version, which is pure stock.
Hope it helps!

Thanks. Is there a ROM/Kernel combination you would recommend as a daily driver for the T889v.
I would want the following:
1) Decent battery life compared to stock. On stock I lose about 2.5% an hour by just being on standby. And with use I lose about 1% every 2 mins of screen time (for example when reading news in chrome browser at lowest brightness.)
2) Is responsive. The stock rom is starting to become really laggy (despite me having uninstalled a lot of apps). I know a lot of the budget phones like the Moto G2, which have less ram be much more responsive.
3) It would be nice if it shows the type of data network I am connected to HSPA+, 3G, Edge etc
4) Lastly, would be nice if it actually displays the carrier I am connected to, instead of displaying US.
Also, would points 3 and 4 be resolved if I removed boot.img from the ROM package? I have read that somewhere, but was not an authoritative source and don't want to brick the phone. It is still my daily driver, and would like to avoid bricking it.
Well, as for past experiences, what I used to run on the phone when I was on AOSP was Omni.. I really liked the battery life, it run for about two days with regular browsing, email checking, phone using, texting, youtube video playing, etc. If you decide to flash Omni, what I would suggest would be to run the kernel that comes with it. Normally, the Rom will come with it's own kernel manager (I believe they either use PAC kernel, Linaro or a CM based kernel), but it will work fine. The only thing that drove me off of Omni was that there was an issue with Netflix, but there's a patch running around in the forums and also in the Xposed framework. As per the ROM showing either 4G or LTE of HDPA+, at the time we didn't have in LTE with the phone, but I could see HSPA+ just fine.
If I can recommend something, is to clean install whichever ROM u decide to flash, and use the minimal GAPPS. Also, when you restore your apps (if you use something like TiBu) never restore system apps, just user apps.
Let me know what you end up doing and how it works for you!
Hi friends!
I've been around the forums the past few days and noticed several Android 5.0 lollipop roms for our device. I've tried out a few of them and have been very impressed with how good they are. So I'd like to ask you guys, what are your experiences with any of these Lollipop Roms? Is there any you prefer? What are any bugs you've come across? Is there any advice you'd like to give on flashing or using these roms?
I think this could be a great way to gather our thoughts and keep track of how development is going.
Thanks!
I am eagerly waiting to make one of these roms my daily. Flash every nightly of the cm12 and play around for about an hour but then nandroid back. Not that many issues but still seem buggy and things that i use daily like the IR blaster dont work. I find it amazing how fast the devs were able to get us 5.0 roms so quick! And almost fully functional to! Maybe you can list the roms? To my knowledge the only 5.0 roms iv seen are 2 cm12s and a 5.0 pac.

CyanogenMod 12.0 by Phantomphreak53

So far I've found Phantomphreak53's CM rom to be the most stable. Only thing not working is video recording which is a common issue amongst all of the lollipop roms. All in all these builds hold up extremely well for Alphas.

I am currently using the CM-12-Unofficial by PhantomPhreak53 and here are my thoughts so far:
I clean flashed the 11/21 build after formatting data (I know this is not required or necessary) and a wipe. With a clean slate, it worked very well with the exception of NFC, double tap to wake, video recording and the resolution was off. Double tap to wake was fixed by editing a file, resolution was fixed with build prop, and I didn't need NFC or video so it was fine.
I dirty flashed the 11/23 build and NFC has been fixed. The video recording still doesn't work and the error "can't connect to camera" pops up after you try. The 11/23 build also fixed double tap to wake, added privacy settings, and fixed the resolution. Some people have noticed battery drain, but I get just about the same I got with stock. I will get about 3-4 hours of SoT with roughly 12-15 hours off the charger. This is all LTE on T-Mobile. Overall, I think 11/23 is good enough for a daily and I am currently using these "nightlies" as my dailies. There are some reports of crashing, but I haven't had any so far.

I was running the Pac Rom build for a few days, but it seems the developer has switched to a nexus 6 and stopped further development. Pac Rom worked extremely well for me, the only issue I ran into was Documents force closing. I switched to the CM12 (11/24) by Phantomphreak53 today. Hopefully it holds up as well as Pac. Phantomphreak53 has been doing an excellent job with updates almost everyday. I'll check in again after spending some more time with this rom. Thanks for the input everybody!
I tried CM12 11/19 and 11/22, but ended up going back to a 4.4.4 rom because of battery life issues (namely NFC service using up my battery), video issues (opening a video in snapchat caused the phone to crash), and some other various instabilities. Is the video issue fixed in 11/24?

It looks like they are working on the video issue, or they changed something because now I don't get a force close but the video freezes and you have to reboot.
As for battery, I would try clean flashing a new ROM, maybe even the 11/25, because I have no misc or NFC battery issues. NFC did show up on the 11/23 rom, but it was very low and I got about the same battery life as I got from CM-11 and stock. Let's see if 11/25 fixes it for good.
EDIT: Scratch that. Taking a video still causes the camera apps to crash. Nothing has changed there.

I'd much rather have the app crash than have to reboot. I guess i'll have to check out 11/25.

I must have done something to cause the reboot. Every time I have tried since it just crashes. I haven't had any reboot issues at all on any of the roms, and I am currently on 11/25. I apologize if my post was confusing.

Things get a bit funky with these roms sometimes. The other day I lost all audio playback on my phone for absolutely no reason. I kept rebooting, but still no sound. I suggest you get everything working as best as you can and make a recovery from it. That way if things get wacky you can just restore and have everything back to how it was.

That's probably a good idea. I have seen some inconsistencies between devices as well. Some people have weird battery drain while others don't, some have problems with AUX and others don't etc. I wonder how much is the ROM, how much was how it was flashed and how much was related to different apps and settings. So far I have had a great experience though, so no complaints here.

Every other post asks that same question. Gets frustrating even going through the threads anymore. Every other post mentions the video not working too. It even states in the CM12 OP by phantom that the video doesn't work. It always helps to read the entire thread before even flashing the ROM. That way when you flash it and stuff doesn't work you really have no one to blame but yourself. If you use the video camera a lot, just don't flash the ROM. That way when you try and use the video camera and it crashes, you won't go straight back to the thread and complain or mention it doesn't work. The moderators are gonna start going through and clearing all the repeat posts. They shouldn't have to if you just do your research people. That is all.

No rom not based on t-mobile stock will have wifi calling, it is baked in low level. However, if you have a Google voice number and you integrate it with hangouts you can make a call over data with hangouts, if you're on wifi then boom, wifi calling. Can't be done with your carrier number though.
I've tried all three. Was hesitant to try PhantonPhreak53's build but I finally did and haven't left. Updates have been consistent and this rom has been my daily for about a week now. Not really worried about the video recording. I take Photos on Snapchat majority of the time anyway so I can wait patiently for the video recording fix. I'm just glad to have a stable 5.0 lollipop build.
Looks great
Anyone using these roms with QI charging? Does it still work?

Finally flashed a 5.0 rom and have discovered that QI charging still works, though it feels like it takes longer to charge.

I have a Find 7s and am having issues with Black Screens Of Death / random reboots whichever ROM I try. As others have these issues on various ROMs, I'm assuming for now it's not a unique hardware fault. I can't recall the issue under ColorOS (but I didn't have that too long). Nameless (Lollipop) was the first ROM I tried and gave BSODs too pften. Went to AOSP and that suffered from, random reboots. Trying Omnirom but that gives BSODs - seems to occur as randomly as the AOSP issue but indtead of rebooting, the phone freezes - no good if I want to ensure I wake up in the morning!
Does anyone who's suffered similarly have a ROM recommendation that eliminates the issue? I don't want to go back to ColorOS but it seems I may have to if that's the only answer.
I had the same problem with Nameless, and immediately switched to CRDroid. I'd recommend trying that!
Also, use the package found here if your phone doesn't go into deep sleep. Using any other modem/firmware package tends to make my phone not go into deep sleep at all.
You can try MIUI 7 for Find 7, get the Wuxianlin version.
Thanks both - had tried crDroid but had issues restoring Titanium Backup (I think I saw a fix for that since) so tried Oppo's Project Spectrum AOSP build (too many teerhing problems) and OMNIROM 6.0 (a few BSODs but not at all bad). Stickung with the latter for now but will research MIUI certainly and may retry crDroid. How do I know which LCD panel version I have without flashing ColorOS BTW?

I'm on MIUI as the daily driver, so you don't have to research anymore. Highly recommend it
Not sure what you mean by teething problems with project spectrum beta release. It is a very stable release, no bsods whatsoever and has maxx audio and a couple of screen off gestures built in. Flashed it last week and it has been great. Great battery life too.

Thanks for the reassurences - many in the thread are having issues so I may hold off until the next patched release. As for MIUI, I'd probably have given it a shot but the benefits of Marshmallow have led me to put up with the odd BSOD on OmniROM 6.0 for now - I'd certaonly be temptrd by a Marshmallow basrd version. It appeats my new LCD panel Find 7 suffers the same BSOD issue as many with this model are expetiencing - presumably a ketnel issue that is evidently very difficult to track down.

I retried the latest build of crDroid (Dec 4th Marshmallow) and it now works, so I'm very happily using it. No BSODs or reboots in two days so far, already an improvement over Omnirom, Nameless, CyanogenMod and AOSP. Think I'll be sticking with this one! Kudos to the devs.
An update - sadly a few reboots but at least it reboots rather than freezing as OmniROM did. As it's hapoening to others, I assume it's not a hardware issue. I see Official CM13 is out but appears not to support LVM so I'll stick with crDroid for now.
R63419 New LCD Panel, random reboots BSOD

@SleepingTreeBear As far as i understood from your previous posts you have the new LCD panel R63419.
So how did you manage to get the crDroid ROM working for you, knowing that it doesn't support this new LCD panel.
I have the same BSOD issue, and with the new LCD panel i don't have thaht much choice, i can use either Spectrum or Omnirom, and both have random reboots or BSOD.
Any help !

I had assumed I had the newer LCD due to the issues I'd had - maybe I don't then - how do I find out on a non-ColorOS ROM?

If crDroid is working well on your find7 that means that you don't have the s***ty new LCD . Only OmniROM managed to support this new LCD
So congrats, you can enjoy any ROM. (not me... )
Reboots in crDroid have become more frequent so keeping an eye on the Nameless Marshmallow progress as (aside fron the last coupple of builds) people were enjoying few or no BSODs so once past the experimental stage that ROM could be worth a road test.
