Made the default Multiwindow theme transparent, Overall I think it fits better with the stock theme.
Fixed Wifi Direct tap to transfers.
A line I changed in the csc might have been responsible for some people with lock screen issues. Reverted.
Added every language I could. So if yours isn't there try using More Local 2 from the market.
Lots and Lots of little things you probably won't notice. There were a lot and I didn't keep a very good changelog.

7-17-13

1. I fixed some more possible issues with the non stock kernels, I still can't guarantee there performance but I've done all I can so they perform like the developer expected them too.
From what I could tell some of the init.d tweaks were conflicting with parameters already established. Then I made a mistake and forgot to replace a few modules.
I got everything taken care of now in that regards. I still can't say if they will perform any better. But at least now I can say I've done everything I can. Somebody in the AT&T forum said they noticed a difference right away.

If your on a non stock kernel simply do the kernel only install. That is all you need to do, script will do the rest.

2. Can't say for sure, because I never had an issue but might have fixed issue for some with the AOSP gallery/camera app and flashplayer not being copied to the sdcard/S3Rx_apps.
If you can't find them look for a 0 folder or sdcard0/0 this folder gets sysmlinked with CWM and any CM10, AOKP builds. Recovery might have copied there.

Changelog/FAQ/Issues?

• KNOWN ISSUES:
• If SystemUI force closes on first boot, it will come back... Has something to do with Time and Date not syncing right away.
• AOSP Mms has a bug that when selecting your own contact in a message thread, it will force close the contacts app
• There is a small line between the pull down toggles and the brightness slider when messing with the notification drawer color/transparency
• Status bar might be black upon reboots till the status bar is touched then it will return to what it was.
• 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"...

All credit to harshaedvern for this easy fix

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

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.
