I have yet to find one. This and Illusion are by far the fastest. most stable, and bug free roms for our TMobile Galaxy S3. They are in a league of their own.

Wifi Tethering

Has anyone else been able to get wifi tethering working and if so how did you do it? I have tried stock tethering and a it connects no problem but no internet. Then I tried trevermod and that did not work either.

Don't post in here anymore, unless you're contributing to the development of this rom. We never ask which rom is better. It's up to you to try it for yourself and choose the one that best suits your needs.

Known Issue.

Howdy gang. Anyone manage to successfully flash the 1/28 build? I've downloaded it twice & the install fails. Using TWRP, the latest, and if it gives me an error I'm missing it.... Just quickly says failed. Downloading one more ... We shall see.. Checking the md5 this round. Have a good morning... Loving this ROM Mike.. Appreciate your work!

Update... Downloaded a new version & it worked fine ...... I thought. My phone app has disappeared.... I can receive calls, but phone icon s says app not installed.. I've tried everything but reflashing... Which I'm about to do... Anyone else have this happen.

as to the phone thing, remove the icon from your desktop and try again from the app drawer.

Yeah... No go... So I downloaded another copy, md5 checked out, no phone... Flashed 1/25... Phones back... Anyone experience this with the new nightly? Thanks for the reply though man...

Just a few more details... Strange thing, phone was in system/app, had the proper permissions, and appeared fine. No sign of it in the app drawer... I could receive calls, but when I tried to make one, grooveIP was the only option available. Clicking the phone icon in the dock gave "app not installed message".. So is the phone working for any of you guys on 1/28?

Those with phone.apk issues, did you flash inverted apps?

Sent from my SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2
Ahhh. Nailed it.. Running JB inverted gapps. They worked great on 1/25.. Strange... Anyone know why that may be?... Will miss those gapps!... Think it's still worth trying to replace phone apk with 1/25 version, out does this rule that out?

I've done that on a previous AOKP nightly that had the same issue about a month ago and it didn't work.. Guessing the same here. As bajee has stated, if we flash inverted gapps the issue will not be supported here. He will explain later today in the discussion thread
