T-Mobile S3Rx 1.5 Test

Ok Flash-a-holics here is a test of 1.5

I'm pretty sure I nailed it. :laugh: it's a small update but it's a good one.

Update 1.5
1. Updated AROMA with some more options and layout, backup/restore EFS, a working File manager, Fix permissions, Reboot and Exit options.
2. Cleaned up install script.
3. Added 8 all new Inverted AOSP MMS.apk's
4. Updated some apps, Gmail 4.5.2 and Inverted Gmail 4.5.2, Playstore.... GMS_core
5. Fixed inverted blue YouTube install
6. Added lidroid's multi-window smoothness patch
7. Increased joinable contacts to 99.
8. Flashplayer install work around. Have to install manually. App will be saved in "sdcard/S3Rx_apps" Then install like a normal apk
9. New S4 4.3 AOSP camera/gallery. Have to install manually. App will be saved in "sdcard/S3Rx_apps" Then install like a normal apk
10. Fixed a few things in AOSP theme also rethemed the TW messaging bubbles.
11. Minor annoyance with lidroid-res with text, reboot and shutdown popup said "WanamLite ROM", edited to generic "Reboot options".

Before it's official and I put it in the OP I need some testers.

For the Brave Only Muhahaha...

Couple of things... no matter how much I tried to get Flashplayer and The New S4's AOSP camera/gallery to install during flash, they just don't work. But they work perfect if you install them like a normal app after boot.

I also have the best luck flashing from the internal sdcard. I also suggest before flashing to delete all the S3Rx_xxx.props from your internal sdcard, lot of aroma changes

I know you won't discuss about battery life but is there any kernel you would recommend to get the best battery life out of this ROM?

You did a very good job. This will be my daily driver from now on. Thank you!

I been using faux kernels uv by 50 or so.. with 1.3 ghz max and with intellidemand. I have used that for all tw roms and that has been given me good battery. To each their own but you can always play with the clocking and gov's and allll that good stuff. :)

Got a good download, md5 checked out and file size was the same. Tried 3 times to install with the latest cwmr and it would hang right before aroma loaded but installed perfectly on the first try with rom manager:confused: other than that everything is running perfectly with 1.5 for me here. Thanks again for this beautiful rom:good:

    • Please refer to feature list in the OP

    12/21/13

    1. fixed font issue force closing settings.
    2. added crt off effect.
    3. fixed updated hagouts video chat, missing lib file
    4. moved more bloat to data/app
    5. Needs testing but I resigned the AccessT-Mobile app so it shouldn't be recognized by the market. So since this version should be safe form the update you can choose to use it or uninstall it.
    6. Fixed 1% battery mod... seems Samsung used 2 sets of xml to control the the battery icons.

    Known issues
    1. Screen off torch light is buggy. It will work fine within 3 seconds of the screen being turned off. If it works perfect for you no matter when you turned the screen off then it is creating the wakelock and you may experience some extra battery draw. *A reboot will get rid of the wakelock*
    2. Battery MOD my be a little funky till you mess with the settings. *It might also be slow to open, as we add more icons it will get slower*
    3. Tell us if you notice anything else.

    GPS issues?


    GPS not locking: Unfortunately This is going to happen to some when coming from AOSP based ROMs and other carrier ports.

    A couple common fixes include...

    ==============================================================

    1. Easiest and most reliable way. Try this first!
    • Enter the Samsung service mode by typing this code into the dial pad *#197328640#
    • Then go to Mainmenu>UMTS>Common>NV REBUILD>NV REBUILD> (Important: don't exit the menu yet!)
    • Wait 30+ sec
    • Long press power button and select "Restart / Reboot"
    • Now check your GPS from any software that may use GPS like "Maps" or "GPS Status"...
    ==============================================================

    2. Returning to the stock ROM via ODIN, acquire a GPS lock then reboot into Recovery.. Wipe and Flash new ROM.
    I recommend trying Chainfire's MOBILE ODIN first before the desktop version, it's really easy to use and it's free to XDA users HERE.
    You can flash an ODIN package right from your phone and still retain your custom recovery, simply exclude it from the list of partitions to flash.
    It will also inject ROOT if the ODIN package does not already have it... makes things really simple.
    ==============================================================

    3. Restoring a nandroid of a TouchWiz ROM with a known working GPS status, make sure all location services are enables and can obtain a GPS lock. (go to additional steps now if needed) Reboot, Wipe and Flash New ROM...
    Additional steps if required before flashing new ROM:
    Backup your internal storage and take out your sd-card now... just in case stuff gets deleted. Do a Factory Reset form within the restored TW nandroid. Reboot... Skip all the setup stuff... acquire a GPS lock again... Reboot into recovery Wipe and Flash the new ROM.
    ==============================================================

    4. Flash back to the AOSP ROM you were just on. Obtain a GPS lock, then reinstall ROM again and see if GPS works

    ==============================================================

    5. Repeat until one of the options ends up working... Not much else to tell you to try. Good luck!

    ==============================================================

    GPS and Location Services: If you have Google Maps installed and Google Now, you will notice Maps uses your location services a lot during the day. Apparently Google thinks we need our location tracked 24/7. Turning GPS on only when needed will help eliminate the wakelocks created by maps. Going a step further you may also want to disable the "Use Network Location", This will also stop other apps form getting your location... Most apps will let you enter your location manually so it's not really a big deal turning it off, especially when your talking about increasing your battery life.
