Dev Modification Request - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

I have looked for a while to locate and found a working file to get edge zoom back on the s3.
I know many hate edge zoom but some love it. I found a file for the sprint s3 and tried it on 4.1.2. with success.
Others have tried it on 4.2.2 without success. What I found was that the 4.1.2 accepts the install and works but it
disables or messes up wifi calling. If there is a brainiac here that can get this to work without loosing wifi calling,
im sure you will make some others, other than myself, very happy.
This is not my work, only what I found. Look HERE, Post Number 4 for the post , file and info.
Good Luck.

No promises, as I probably won't get to it, but if I can, ill take a look at it this weekend.
If you don't hear anything from me on it by sunday night, pm me with a reminder.
And this is by no means a guarantee that ill even be able to make it work, so don't get your hopes up!

Any Attempt would be great. I figured out how to open it but cant see what to edit or how yet.

Enewman got it working in his Rom with a toggle to turn it on or off
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

Running that Rom right now. Why hasnt there been more notice of this Rom? It's rock solid and everything works smooth.
Asked Mr E about one small issue but this looks like my new DD. Other Roms are great, this just seems to be a better fit, so far, for me.

I just came from the Nokia n900

I just came from the Nokia n900 and having so many things working on the phone is a refreshing change! Ive lurked around and read a lot! As a result ive succesfully rooted my phone and have even tried out a few custom roms! However I have a question about a ROM im currently using but I cant post in the dev forum yet so I figured ill try here. Im currently using the digital warfare ROM and ive noticed that my powersave feature does not seem to work correctly. It will kick in regardless of the battery percentage I set. So ive just left it off for now. can someone help?

First I want to give you huge props for actually reading and doing all that on your own instead of posting a ton of useless threads with questions that can easily be found! But to answer your question, the My Account app has its own power save feature, try going into that app and adjusting it from there or just disabling it all together. Hope this helps.

oh man it was really easy compared to what i had to deal with using the n900! well for now i suppose ill just disable it. thanks!

Just disable the power saver in the my account app and use the power saver settings built into the phone, that's what I do.

Welcome to the family.
This phone is pretty beast, and it will only get better.
Thanks! I can tell! making the transition from hw Kb to all touch is kinda weird but this.phone is so capable and powerful its awesome!
Welcome dude and yea i would just disable this phone is great with battery life anyways. One suggestion tho i would freeze tmobile my account all together in titanium backup or uninstall it tgats if u have it installed it actually messes with wifi. When your on wifi it will turn on 4g signal whenever data is requested which isnt good cuz u think ur using wifi the whole time. Ever since ive disabled tgat app i have not had a problem with wifi or 4g service. I actually think its a way for tmobile to snoop on our data. I made a thread about this and other people have confirmed this app to be the culprit. I actually was gonna take my phone back because i couldnt get wifi to stay connected so thats when i started investigating and found this
Hmm I like to keep track of my data usage but if thats the case away it goes!

No im running at stock speeds
It's not unusual for a phone to get warm when running cpu/gpu intensive processes like games. It only becomes a problem when it gets incredibly hot and forces the phone to reboot or the battery gets too hot to touch.

Thanks. now i'm having a new problem. My phone will just randomly shut off and I cant turn it back on until I pull the battery. It has happened twice so far
is your phone hot when this happens? try darksides kernel. haven't had an issue.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App
not hot. i just flashed his new rom/kernel combo with a clean wipe and as i was messing around with milocker it did it again. just shut off on me. only way to bring it back is to pull the battery. very strange.
You using a new ROM? I know you said new ROM/kernel combo but that could imply same ROM new,kernel. If youre on the same ROM, check the thread to see if its an issue with it I guess. Could always try a new one and see if that fixes it. Let us know if you find out anything.

I use 3G Watchdog. It's available in the market. Has a nice little widget as well.

[ROM] Alpha2 iml74k (I may have received a leaked alpha of aosp 4.0.3?)

Today I received a warranty replacement phone through tmo. When I went to root it I found two files on the USB storage. Alpha2.zip and sr2gs2.zip
I held my breath and flashed alpha2 through cwm. And to my surprise a vanilla aosp ics rom booted up. i will post the zip when i get home but nothing really works on it. its fast and snappy but no wifi audio or camera
When i tried to flash sr2gs.zip and it overwrites the kernel to a tmo branded one. i cant get it to boot past the kernel though
Heres the info i have. Ill upload the rom later today
Model msm8660_surf
Kernel 2.6.35.11 -dag0.43+
Build number ends with iml74k and contains a name with @themothership
DBTR-U6S#AOMN-L
Rom was preloaded with softAP and developer tools
hmm can you maybe upload the t-mobile one ?
Interesting

Well, on my current setup, I flashed everything one by one, and I'm stable. Not a single SOD/RR. Great battery life. However, AOKP JB is fragile, the only way to know is to test it. I'm making a nandroid right now, so I myself can test at around 3:00 PM eastern and report back by dinner time, lol.

Any RR or SODs?
I promised I would get back to you, so I am. So let me start off by saying that it is SUPER smooth. When I first booted it up, it was really smooth. One bug i found though is that data doesn't work. It says in the notification drawer that it is on, but when try to go onto the internet, it doesn't work. Also, there were no SODs or RRs. I also liked the fact that is a like a "lite" ROM. You didn't add too many extra applications. The data is a big problem for me, so once that is fixed, I will use it as my DD. I went back to the ROM I was running before. I am really impressed that on your first release, it only had one bug.

So far the rotation seems to be messed up I tried flashing the rotation fix with no luck :/
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
Thanks guys. I'm gonna test it out this afternoon and hopefully figure it out from there.
Edit : I have a educated guess into what the data problem could be, so I'm going to remove speed tweaks for the net.
As for the auto-rotation not working, not sure what to say about that at all. I'll review it when I get back, I'm highly curious to see if I can resolve these bugs. Thanks guys for testing! Hopefully no SOD/RRs yet for anyone!
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
Hello Dev, I think you should remove the word "stable" from your heading. It is misleading. But hey, I am sure you will have this rom up and running nicely. great work.
Why do people keep complaining that is isn't stable? It is pretty stable. I used it for around 20 min. earlier today and no lag, no issues (besides data). It is really nice like I said earlier. Perfect for people who want a ROM without any extra apps.

Sorry, I'll admit it's not completely stable. But stable enough to atleast be a DD. It is misleading, sorry, I'll change it.

Edit : Rev 01 should fix the problems. If not, I should have it all fixed by tonight. I'm typing this from college right now, can't wait to go flash it though. AOKP is buttery smooth with great battery life. CPUSleeper + tweaks = even more performance.
However, the biggest two killers you should be wary of are 4G/3G (data) and high screen brightness.

Because it is based on source that has SOD and RR. There have been no core framework or kernel changes, so it inherently has the same issues as the source it is based on.
BTW: SideKick...good job. keep up the good work.
VoiD_Dweller said:
Honestly I dont get why you guys put all these unofficial builds out all the time if they have SOD and RR in the first place.. Great, you can compile a ROM from source that's got broken kernel problems and patch mods in. It's not like anyone is actually changing the core things that fix those SOD/RR problems, besides of course the Aokp and CM peeps.. It just doesn't make sense to me..

Well, seeing as up until very recently team_kang was only releasing builds on a NO ETA cycle. The nightlies give people something to flash and tinker with. Code is merged every night from the team, so we (people lik erik, myself) release nightlies for the community. Now, Sidekick has taken things a step further by providing yet another option for the thankful members of XDA to flash. If you have no intentions on flashing the rom in the OP, i would suggest you move along.
Choice is yours, but I doubt that OP appreciates someone trolling in his thread.
OP updated. Fixed most bugs.

[WIP] Google Wallet 4.2 Version For Galaxy Note

Heya all... I got wallet to at least run on my phone with a card loaded... All I did was use the 4.2 build of google wallet... Changed my build.prop to that of a google nexus... And I had already linked my card to my wallet on the website prior to installing the app... Worked like a charm... But... Haven't completely tested it yet (hence WIP)... I went to McDonalds and the machine recognized my phone... And my phone said that it had sent the info, but it never cleared... It said to ask cashier to check for further instructions... But... The guy behind the counter had NO clue, and there were others waiting, so I didn't test further... Just wanted to share my experience... Just to let you know I'm running stock rooted...
http://dgrillman.com/filez/wallet.apk - APK File for 4.2 Version...
build.prop
ro.product.model=Galaxy Nexus
ro.product.name=yakju
ro.product.device=maguro
Another thing... Don't know if this had ANYTHING to do with it at all... But for some reason it didn't work the first time I tried to install... But the second time it went through... The second time the only thing different was that I had the back off of my phone... Don't know if it had anything to do with the NFC antenna, or if it was just a strange coincidence...
Ok would I have to remove the current Google wallet? I wonder why no dev has looked into this

I tried the method in THIS POST first... It didn't work for me... But maybe something I did trying that method changed something for when I installed the 4.2 version... Lol... I have NO clue...

In reality I can add the card information but google does not allow me to add the card to my device. So that is why it does not work for me. I am just going to reinstall Jellybomb and wait until they make some progress with the Cyanogenmod 10. I had a feeling this would be a waste of time. So the the apk in the original flagged my device as lost and deactived google wallet from my device.

[Q] [T217S]Installed CM11 and GPS now doesn't WORK

Hello All,
I have researched and researched and now i have given up. I have installed CM11 for my SM-T217S, love the rom super fast and all but one bad thing....my GPS seems not to be working properly. I use Waze for GPS and the main purpose for this tab purchase was so that i can use it as a navi.
Please note that i have installed apps to reset, restore, reconfigure the GPS but nothing seems to work. Tried re-flashing a thousand times from clean to dirty wiping. Even other apps such as TelNav and Maps won't work either.
Can someone share some light on how i can get this GPS issue resolved? :victory::good: now im currently using stock TW in which is slow and old fashioned :crying:

I have researched and researched and now i have given up. I have installed CM11 for my SM-T217S, love the rom super fast and all but one bad thing....my GPS seems not to be working properly. I use Waze for GPS and the main purpose for this tab purchase was so that i can use it as a navi.
Please note that i have installed apps to reset, restore, reconfigure the GPS but nothing seems to work. Tried re-flashing a thousand times from clean to dirty wiping. Even other apps such as TelNav and Maps won't work either.
Can someone share some light on how i can get this GPS issue resolved? :victory::good: now im currently using stock TW in which is slow and old fashioned :crying:

GPS is a bug known by the dev, but I think he gave up on fixing things. So what we got is what we will ever have. I don't use the gps or cameras so I'm OK with it.
I know there was a dev that finished some of the work but used the build without permission. I have it, I'll flash it to see if it works, but I don't think so

It locks on close, but says I'm in the street from where I'm at. I'll do further testing on my way home from work

yea it shows that but the minute you put your destination it stays stuck in searching for GPS.

Well I didn't test the Nav, but walked around my complex and looked like it didn't budge. I'll try the Nav later before I go to sleep.
The one I've flashed is cyanogenmod version 11-20140416 that was taken down. The other is 1110140408 that's in general. Biggest giveaway of the two is the mobile network switch right under Bluetooth and WiFi switches. If you don't have a recent build I'll see what I can do about uploading somewhere.

Sorry if off topic. I'm running cm11 on this and can't remember for the life of me where I got it. Are cameras broken for everyone and is there no thread at all anymore for any builds for this device? Also, if anyone knows, it's there a device tree for it? Is it codename p1? I'm hoping to build pacman for it. If I can get her done, I'll start a thread. I have someone helping me with a kernel with wake gestures as well. We'll see how lucky I get with either.

I know what you mean lol. The original thread who was first opened by one of the developers was deleted and never reposted the CM11 build. Only a few lucky ones like me managed to get a good download but yes it does have the broken camera and GPS. I do hope you can bring pacman ROM to this device . If you need my DL i can send you a quick link to it just let me know. I think there's also a device tree for it but im sure that one was deleted as well :crying:...even though i think i may have that as well...sorry i stopped half way in making an AOSP rom for this device so left my work half finished.

Well I have the rom. I'm just learning about building and I have a couple friends helping but I don't get why it would be taken down. Especially the device tree if there is one. Wouldn't that be on the cm site? I believe if that's there then the rest should be fairly easy. Do you know, is the device codename p1? Or what the codename is? I know the model number but I think there should be a codename by which to find it on cm. I installed a nightly for the p1 and it didn't break anything fit what that's worth if anything. I'll deff drop a post in here if I come up with anything. If anyone has any info at all that you think might help, even if you think it might not help or aren't sure if it's right, let me know. Anything about this device seems to be so ambiguous it's unreal.

Hey guys I just got my T217S yesterday and almost cried when i saw the lack of dev support for this model. If you guys are willing to help get me up to speed Im willing to help test some new builds. I cant find a single concise piece of info regarding anything about this model, and the information I do find seems to be out of date. Ive rooted and rommed an epic 4g, s2, s4, tab 2 10.1 and a bunch of friends phones, its easy when you can find the info. If you know any links it be appreciated. (Sorry to threadjack)

Sorry dude but unfortunately there's really nothing atm. Only a whole bunch of TW roms in which in reality is still stock just rooted. We did had a themed one before but that was taken down.
Even tw ROMs are scarce. The one bad seed one looks pretty good but Wi-Fi doesn't work.
