FAQ/Issues


  • ON NJ2 DON'T INSTALL THE GALAXY 5 PHOTO EDITOR IN AROMA. It will cause the gallery to crash.
  • Smart network switch still shows on first boot in the wifi connection. Haven't found the cause yet. DON'T USE IT, it causes issues.
  • Wanam Torch, using the home button for flashlight will cause extra battery drain. It creates a wakelock and will show Android System to be consuming a lot of battery.
  • Wanam Xposed breaks auto brightness. disable the setting in wanam>themes>brightness slider settings.
  • Wanam Clock and battery mods do not work.
  • Wanam lock screen tweaks shouldn't be used.
  • Clock will be dim on first boot till you enter the Extras menu then the color will appear.
  • Modified Note 2 and Note 3 camera will FC only on 720p video recording. Will fix later.... Can't fix
  • I'm only going to support the new NE4 bootloader, modem and kernel set up. If you don't want to update your bootloaders then you need to use ktoonsez kernel for TW 4.4.2. I cannot support issues due to kernel.
  • Base should be pretty stable, please report any bugs. If at all possible please try and recreate the issues while running a logcat. The issue can be solved much faster then just telling me "this don't work".

Which camera? Don't ever think that was a feature of touch wiz, so I'm going to say no the camera does not work while the screen is off.
The camera icon on the secure lockscreen.

EDIT: Installed the ROM and the camera icon does not show on the secure lockscreen. :(

If I understand correctly I can install this rom while still on the older bootloader and modem but I just have to flash ktoonsez kernel afterwards ?

Great work enewman17!

I've been running loserskater's S3Rx since he released it.

XDA 4 LIFE!

hey gang,

I know this build just got released. I DL'ed it. saved it to both micro sd card and device storage. ran nandroid backup (just in case). using philz recovery 6....although tempted to revert back to twrp because I like the GUI.

after doing the necesary and usual wipes, installation is aborted.

I tried to install the rom first and ktoon's kernal afterwards. something tells me I may or may not be doing this backwards.

I need a quick FAQ. I'm dying to try out s3rx 4.0 -- thanks enewman17 for this.

Try flashing again. After it fails, look for an option to copy log to sd. Then post that here.

You might also want to consider trying with TWRP. If I'm not mistaken that's enewman17's preferred recovery so my guess would be thats what he tested it on. (I could be wrong about that, just going by his other threads.)

I used twrp 2.7.1.0 to flash. But if you try again can you save the install log from recovery. It will at least give me an idea of what happened.

I remember seeing that it was added with 4.3, but if you look at the lists of supported devices the S3 is not listed, so I am not sure anymore.
if im not mistaken, it was added in 4.3 along side of support for the Gear and other wearables. I could be wrong though....

Not working with older bootloaders and kloontz kernel

At least mobile data isn't working for me, no 4g, LTE or 3g. I know you don't support anything other than the NE4 bootloaders/modems, but it's a non starter at the moment. Not sure if it's a quick line edit or a much bigger issue?

Using MJ2/MJB.. Going back to stock NE4..

Thanks
Rob

Hi, the auto brightness is not working, anyone having this issue too?
I've checked with Androsensor and I saw it's sensing the light....

What could it be?

Thanks

Install the latest bootloader/modem (Which would be NE4, you are using MJ2/MJB)
