Nice, will try this out today!
Boot animation keeps looping. Do you have to be stock before flashing this?

Don't have to be much of anything besides rooted w/ custom recovery. It should operate fine unless there's something wrong with the boot.img

I was running Hydro, wouldn't boot, went back to stock, will flash recovery and try flashing again.
Edit - Don't know what else I can be doing wrong. I went back to stock, flashed TWRP 2.2.1.3 and wiped, installed this rom, and it stays on the boot animation. Any ideas?

Check out Term's AOKP JB thrad to see if he posted a boot.img/flashable kernel. That sounds like what your issue is. I have heard that TWRP doesn't properly restore/wipe boot partition.

doesn´t boot with CWM here.
Stuck on the AOKP bootanimation

But that is irrelevant if you go back to stock.

It's fantastic, thanks man.

Thanks for this. I just dove in! Everything seems buttery. :thumbup:

Negative... as the same with other JB roms for this pad.

The reason it works fine for those who already have jb is aokp still doesnt make the boot.blob correctly. So unless the OP switches it out with one built from a working build those not already on jb will not boot.
@karodee I'm gonna send you a DM later you can continue the AOKP builds. Ive got my own ROM I'll be releasing here soon so I'll give you ant help you want or need on the aokp stuff.

Figured it had to be something like that, since I used your builds before without issue.

The boot restore was actually fixed two versions of TWRP ago. The most recent update also fixed external SD card support.

First off. Thanks I love AOKP. Is anyone else having notification toggle problems? I had preview two on before and they worked fine. I did a full wipe and flashed this and the toggles don't work at all. They don't even show up. Any ideas?

Do you mean you can't customize the toggles displayd in the notification area? I think that is currently not implemented in AOKP, they just recently merged the battery icon for the tablet navbar. Or do you mean the toggles that are there by default do not work? I tried them and they work for me :-/ Could you give a logcat?

I do mean those toggles. They were in the previous preview. That's why Im confused. The OLD preview was working fine. This latest one doesnt work.
Oh well, we'll see what happens.

I like the boot animation, but this appears to be a port of cm10, not the aokp that is based on stock. What sucks is it doesn't have some of the cm features like battery percentage.

[Q] 3.0 Kernel

Is there a 3.0 Kernel for the droid inc, 2.x.x.x.x is just not working.
And aokp doesn't even boot up...
There are no 3.0 kernels that I'm aware of. I can tell you now that the kernels being on 2.6 is not the problem. If you're running the wrong kernel for the ROM it won't boot or will boot but not run properly. What ROM or ROMs have you tried and what kernels have you run with them? What is the build date on the kernels? (incredikernel has the build date in the zip file).
Also you can try flashing the ROM without a kernel - it would use the included kernel in this case - and that should boot. Not working or not booting is not specific enough as it doesn't indicate what you tried flashing.

Later aokp builds had issues booting. I cant remember the last build that did. Which one did you try? If you look in the aokp thread there's a fix to get the later ones to boot. Also note that aokp is no longer supported by the aokp team for the inc.

CM10 update build???

I am currently running CM10 alpha 4.3 and I am loving it!! Question, when a new build comes out, do i just put it on phone and update it in recovery on top of the previous version, or is it recommend to flash in another manner for it to work properly, also should i wipe data,delvik,cache or anything before flashing a new build?
Keep up the Great work guys !!!!!
:good:
No need to wipe anything but cache/dalvik when upgrading versions of the same ROM
ya same rom they say cache and delvic cache is all that needs to be wyped... which is nicce.... as long as your faithful to one rom lol...... but im running the same rom and is the crt off animation only working sometimes for you as well?

Hard Lights not working

On every AOSP based rom such as CM9 AOKP and Muiu when you are on the lock screen the hard lights dont turn on this started with CM9 9.0.0 Stable is there a fix for that

I found that all the ROMs that changed up the stock 3.0.8 kernel jacked up the hardlights.. the only working ones are stock 4.0.4 and also the AOKP ICS rom. theres really no fix until they fix the kernel source
this includes CM9 and almost anything cyanogenmod based, darkside ROM also have this issue but it comes on sometimes, the only stable one i found was the July 15 build 40 of AOKP rom, and anything as close to stock as u can find with the 3.0.8 kernel.
goodluck
CM9 RC2 works fine so if the kernel could be ported from RC2 that would work

yea exactly, i even suggested that to some devs and they dont answer the call so idk.. they are just waiting for the kernel source to be updated thats all they tell me...
By the way on the RC2, how did you flash it? im thinking of just doing superwipe, flash rom, cache wipe via CWM recov?
thanks

Installed last night running really well so far. Android build number is 4.4.1, so looks like Cyanogen team has already incorporated Google's latest source.

I noticed some comments on the download saying after installing they fell into a boot loop, but I didn't have any problems like that. Only two issues I saw was rom mgr was gone and wifi couldn't get past "...turning on" (even after a reboot).
I went ahead and went back to my backup and will give cm11 a try every day or so - the wifi thing I suspect will work itself out.
Flashing CM11.zip Problem
mine is having issues flashing the rom, anybody know i running TWRP recovery could be my issue? Thanks in advance
im flashing this since this morning i flashed the newest CM 10.2 nightly and it some how it broke all my gapps and could only fix it to where the phone worked except most Google apps, therefore i decided to do a full wipe and istall CM11 but it is not flashing

Most likely yes, TWRP is the culprit. Try Philz Touch 6.0.0.8, it has been amazing for me. Make sure to do a complete wipe of system, Dalvik-cache, and cache, the option on Philz is called "complete wipe to install new ROM" and then make sure to flash 4.4 GApps as well.

Philz Touch worked perfectly. Thanks! now im running 4.4.1 and its running pretty smooth i must say. Two things i didnt not find was the capability to change the brightness with the notification bar and the option to remove the name of the apps on the home screen. If anybody finds a work around lemme know thanks in advance.

the cameras fine. the original CM 11 had some bugs like the front facing camera freezing up a phone and causing a reboot but the newest updates based off Google's release of 4.4.1 which was to fix bugs with the camera on the Nexus 5 they have fixed all camera issues and it even takes photos/focuses faster than before.
anybody able to use ART runtime, mine just reboots but it doesn't change it. my nexus 7 with CM11 does run ART though, any luck?
everything seems to be working fine and super fast. calendar wasn't syncing but today's update thru the playstore fixed it for me. camera seems the same to me.
running 12-1013 nightlie.

I have read that if you use GAPPS, you need to flash a special ART compatible version if you want to use the ART runtime.

it was the same GAPPS i used on my Nexus 7 tho, ohh well, im gonna have to read up on it, i did try looking for info here at xda but couldnt find much, didnt have much much time to look though.
I just Installed the newest nightly and Xposed Installer+GravityBox(KK) to make up for the past CM features such as controlling the brightness witht the status bar and changing the launching application on the notification bar's Time & Date. One feature I am still missing is removing the names of the apps on the homescreen... If you like extra features and modifications to your guy's phone i highly recomment Xposed+Gravitybox.

Losing all the Baseband and Modem settings after flashing an AOSP ROM.

Good evening everyone. I recently got this phone from the Black Friday deal at Best Buy for 80$ and rooted and did all of that without much problem. I installed the Wicked ROM without any issues, and tested it out but I prefer AOSP. But when I flash Cyanogen or Bliss, I lose all of the mobile data , the baseband, here I include a screenshot. I have flashed a stock ROM once again, activated it again without any problem, but when I try to flash an AOSP ROM again I lose everything. Is there anything I can do about that? I have searched the forums and Google and found no solutions. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Did you check to make sure that the md5 matched? Anytime I've had that happen either the md5 didn't match, or I needed to use a different kernel. My Goto kernel for AOSP ROMs has been BMS.

Thanks for the tip, tried flashing Cyanogenmod with that kernel and the same thing happens, I lose all of the settings related to the Baseband, Modem and IMEI. I checked the md5 and it matches completely. I have no idea what is happening. For now I settled into the Conquest Singulalirty ROM which provides an ASJOP look but on offical firmware. But still I would like to know how to solve this problem so if anyone has any tips that would be greatly appreciated.
Is your phone the L710T model by any chance? I had the same problem with every rom I tried EXCEPT for Gummy 3.0. For some reason Gummy 3.0 recognizes my baseband/modem but if I try Gummy 4.0 or any other AOSP rom, no baseband.

Flash the file here: http://androidforums.com/threads/mo...apn-fix-wip-cm-aosp-4-4-x.840298/#post6516416
It will modify necessary files in the system to allow you to connect. Also, dial ##72786# to reactivate after flashing. That all worked for me on my Virgin S3 running Carbon. Good luck!
The SPH-L710T is what was on sale at BestBuy for $80 (as I found out after running into a similar problem), and it's a pain in the ass. It seems that TW ROMs are the only ones that don't break the radio... and the M10 snapshot of CM11 apparently (except rotation is backwards). I'm looking for a fix as well.
It seems that all of this can be fixed by a custom kernel, but there's no AOSP/CM kernel (that I know of) that fixes both.
I wish I knew something about kernel development...

That is exactly the one that I have, the 80$ Best Buy from Black Friday. Yeah, I tried what metalhead131 said and it did not work. Hmmm, M10 snapshot worked for you? I will try it out them to see how it goes. In what way did it break the rotation? It does not rotate or is it inaccurate? It is a pain in the ass that we have so many ROMS available but we can't use them. I have been using the Conquest Singularity by Moon Knight. The one that is here in XDA is kinda of outdated but if you Google it you will find his blog with the latest update. He created an AOSP looking ROM but it is TW underneath. That combined with Gravity Box has satisfied me for now, but I hate no being able to flash AOSP ROMS. I know nothing about kernel development, but if someone wants to help with this I can provide anything they need in order to fix this problem with this T version of the phone.
I will try to take the kernel of the M10 and flash it with another ROM to see if the rotation works. I will update as soon as I do that.

Yeah, the radio worked with the M10 snapshot. I was able to get the latest version of ParanoidAndroid to work with the M10 snapshot kernel as well.
When I say rotation is broken I mean when you hold it sideways, it rotates the wrong way, so it's upside down.

Excellent. Thanks for the good news! That doesn't bother me that much, so I will do that with the Bliss ROM that I wanted to install. I will keep investigating and trying things to see if we can fix the rotation issue. I will keep the thread updated.
Semi-Fix for the rotation issue on the M10 kernel.
After checking some apps out, I found one that worked well for the rotation problem using AOSP ROMS on the troublesome SPH-L710T. The app is called Adaptive Rotation Lock and is available for free on the Play Store. What it does is that a little button pops up everytime you rotate your phone, and if you don't click that button the screen will not rotate. So once you put your phone horizontallly, click on the button that pops up to allow the phone to rotate upside-down, then rotate the phone so it is not upside-down anymore, but do not click the button, so it stays in the correct rotation. It is a little cumbersome, but it beats always being upside down while using the phone horizontally! I think this is a good option while we find out how to fix this issue in the kernel.

Greeting kdude63. Thanks to your tips I was able to test many roms and as you settled on Paranoid Android. The only problem I have right now is that intermittently point I lose cell coverage for like 2 minutes, but then I get it back. Does that happen on your phone?
I have also tried many kernels to see if I find another one that works but no go. I am still using the M10 boot.img. Have you found another one that works?
And thanks for helping out with the ODIN tar for this phone! It makes me feel a lot more safe when I am experimenting.

I don't currently use PA or CM as my daily driver, so I don't know. (I don't like dealing with the rotation issues)
I was testing some other kernels earlier, none of them worked before I got careless and accidentally flashed an i9300 kernel, so I can't use my phone for the time being.
Cnexus and several others have posted debrick images and stock ROMS for various versions of the s3. Good luck debricking

Good evening everyone. I recently got this phone from the Black Friday deal at Best Buy for 80$ and rooted and did all of that without much problem. I installed the Wicked ROM without any issues, and tested it out but I prefer AOSP. But when I flash Cyanogen or Bliss, I lose all of the mobile data , the baseband, here I include a screenshot. I have flashed a stock ROM once again, activated it again without any problem, but when I try to flash an AOSP ROM again I lose everything. Is there anything I can do about that? I have searched the forums and Google and found no solutions. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yep, I flashed it normally. Using Philz I got the Wicked 8 zip file and a couple of the addons that are available without any problems but since I don't like the Touchwiz UI too much I am currently running Conquest. Maybe try the full Wicked 8 zip? I did not try the barebones, but I can confirm that Wicked 8 works on the T model. It has the rotation issue but a couple of post ago I described how to get around that. Let me know if it works!

i was finally able to flash bare-bones i had to flash the updated kernel i used for Conquest beta 10
I'm glad! At least we can use Touchwiz based ROMs while we can find a way to create a kernel that is completely compatible with the T model. Is your rotation working correctly?

Yes rotation is working and with the next few updates on CM side they will be fully working on the T model cause CM already updated a fix for the T model
I got spooked when the baseband disappeared and rotation was not working. Went back to stock. Of course you also seem to need the special 2.7 twrp in order to mount system. But the price was right.
