[Q&A][FAQ][Support][Discussion] CSROM and Graviton

CSROM & Graviton Support and Discussion Thread


This thread was created in response to a new xda initiative to reduce non-development related posts on development threads.

An added benefit of a thread here is that users with under 10 posts can get some help (and won't have to PM me).

I will maintain just one thread (hopefully this works) for both ROMs and all carriers to help preserve my sanity.

Please be sure to specify which ROM you are using and the carrier.

Below are some examples of common types of posts and where they belong



Q&A and FAQ Thread:
"What kernel gives the best battery life with this ROM?"

"Is Nova launcher compatible with this ROM?"

"The battery life for this ROM is off the chizarts!"

"The battery life for this ROM is total crap!"

"I just flashed this ROM and my GPS doesn't work. :crying:"



Development Thread:
"The new cellular data toggle isn't working (confirmed by another user)?"

"I keep getting FC's from SystemUI. Any thoughts?"

"I selected the green battery icons in Aroma but it installed the blues ones (I checked twice)."

"I just flashed this ROM and it bricked my device! "

"The battery life for this ROM is off the chizarts!
(see attached screenshots from Better Battery Stats)."

"The battery life for this ROM is total crap!
(see attached screenshots from Better Battery Stats)."



**********************************************

There are exceptions to the examples above. If you are using a port and your GPS doesn't work I need to know that.

It will probably take some time for threads like this to evolve, so I am definitely open to feedback.

Hey guys,

ATT CSROM v1.4 GS3 - Love the ROM so far, once I got a lot of my apps and data restored and a few issues with that worked out.

Kind of a newb to customs roms. This is the first one I have put on my GS3.

As far as I can tell I am using the CS launcher and would like to the change the wallpaper on my lock screen. However when I bring up the selection screen it only give me the option to use the stock wallpapers.

Can I just move an image to the stock location and have it appear? Or is there another option?

Yeah, it get's tough sometimes. That is why guys like you and the other people that test for me are a huge help. You guys make my life a lot easier by helping out on the threads.

It won't be long before I stop supporting the Atrix. I just don't have the time and I don't use the device anymore.

There is also a pretty good chance I will close up shop for my Sprint and T-Mobile ports for this device. There is not much interest for my ROMs in either forum. Probably not a bad thing since that will lighten my workload.

I am wondering if this thread would be better in the general section. That way it can be Q&A, FAQ, and general discussion. But, like I said in the OP, this is a new concept to we will have to see how it evolves.

If you want to use anything other than a stock wallpaper for the lockscreen you need to have the Samsung gallery installed. The AOSP gallery is not compatible with the lockscreen for pics, or other images on your device.

Thanks for the answer!

Can more than one galleries coexists? If so, do I just select another one gallery in the Aroma installer and deselect all other options?

Im still kinda fuzzy on the modify/upgrade process within the installer.

Re: [Q&A][FAQ] CSROM and Graviton

Yes they can Co exist. I can't remember how many there are in aroma but you can download as many as you want. I have three not including quickpic

It's a great ROM and I used it as a base to mess with flashing different things and learning stuff. Dev and testers always help.

No matter how many others I try I come back haha

Yeah I'm learning to port and build from source at the moment so this will stay as my daily driver for sure.

Just a mention,

I installed Light Flow Lite yesterday and toyed around with it. Long story short it broke the AOSP lock screen. By broke I mean any time I would put my phone into sleep then wake it up and interact with any function of the lock screen it would become unresponsive and reboot (fast reboot I think).

I was finally able to get out of it by bringing the notification window down and getting into settings. Disabled the lock screen and the device was fine. Uninstalled Light Flow and wiped the data with TB, but the lock screen is still broken. Haven't tried the touchwiz lock screen for fear of it being broken too.

Aside from that the batt life is amazing and everything works wonderfully. Even got another gallery installed via Aroma and can change the lock screen wallpaper (not that im using a lock screen right now).

Based on what I have read on this apps web site it wasn't meant for an aosp rom. That sounds like a matter of app not being compatible with the rom so I would say not the roms fault.
Glad you were able to get things back to normal.

You are the second or third user that had this happen. I will add a warning to the OP.

If I remember correctly, Light Flow works fine with the stock lockscreen. But you might want to wait until someone that actually uses it chimes in.

Thanks, I couldnt really find anything else that mentioned having that kind of trouble, but it definitely makes sense. And I wasnt blaming it on the ROM, just saying it was a side effect.

Maybe the mention will keep someone else from breaking their lock screen.

Again, thanks for the great rom!!

Try light manager app in my experience it is more aosp friendly
