***The Unofficial Samsung Galaxy S III LTE (I9305) Thread***

Yep, I like I actually got a notification when the ROM was ready to download.

Pandoriam may be 2 or 3 days still for the update I think -

Just advising I am aware of the new Firmware LL5 and i am in progress of Pandoriam v6.0 but i aint in no rush.
 
Thanks mate. I have over 300 video's on my Hemorrdroids channel, but now moving out on my own.

One note, I'd been getting really bad battery with LL3, I mean like 10 hours total, but today on LL5 I went 8 hours and used only 35%...
 
Anyway, is there any benefit to flashing the device through Odin to have a stock/non-network firmware? Will the OTA updates come through quicker direct from Samsung without relying on ee/T-mobile to tweak and release the updates? From what I know so far I'm under the impression that if I do a stock firmware flash via Odin it WON'T trip the flash binary counter, and will still show as an unaltered stock device? Can anyone please confirm this? Thanks. :)

I believe your correct, I don't think it will trigger the binary counter.

I'm not so sure as to OTA's once you've flashed via Odin. For me, I've always flashed updates myself via Odin from leaks, so I've never had an OTA that's more recent than I already have on my phone...
 
Hmm, I have Jkay installed, then installed JB Dom from the JKay mods. I'm sure there's a regular JB Dom download, as I did that one once by mistake.
 
Hmm, look quite different to mine. I think I got rid of 3G Watchdog though as it used to drain my battery. Is that your launcher keep your phone awake?
 
As you can see - some nasty wakelocks there. Got rid of the mediascanner one I had before via full sd wipe.

I got to be honest, I thought they were pretty good. 13 hours use and no partial wakelock over 5 minutes? Have a look at mine...

(Granted, I think something's gone wrong with the Network Location, probably a reboot would fix it.)
 
Are kernel wakelocks not the ones that keep the phone awake when you're using it? I've only ever used partial wakelocks, which are the ones that wake your phone up when it's sleeping.

Anyway, here -

no partial wakelocks over 5 mins - but then why is my phone awake for 3hrs when my screen on time is 1.5? I only used my phone when the screen was on and I turned off all sync services.

I think it's near impossible to have an Android where nothing happens when the screen is off.

If I were you I'd be wanting to know why your launcher is waking the phone when it should be asleep.

Also, I don't think it goes into deep sleep the instant the screen is off. Let say it takes 20 seconds. If you've turned your screen on 60 times, in total, that's your phone awake for 20 minutes with the screen off. It easily builds up.

I use Latitude, so I know that's big for partial wakelocks. You do seem to have next to nothing waking it. I don't think you'll get much better than that, apart from maybe the launcher thing.
 
45 minutes!?!?!? That's barely enough time to... erm... nevermind.

I'm on Ripper v9 with Jkay and JB Dom. No problems with it at all. It's actually too good as I get itches to flash something new, but no reason to.
 
After another full wipe and have nothing syncing my batterylife is back to excellent, got rid of lightflow, 3g watchdog and cpu widget.

Yeah, I could probably have told these would cause some drain, the first two definitely. What did the CPU widget do? Show clock speed?
 
Being on Three, for me the appeal was 100% the DC-HSDPA. Honestly I can tell the improvement.

I've been on Ripper 9.6 all day, this evening I flashed CrossBreeder and Perseus kernel and an hour or two later, I couldn't turn the phone on. Battery pull and then reboot and all seems fine, but I guess I'll keep track. Anyone else have any issues?
 
It's happened again. I was fine all day, so I think 9.6 is fine, and I used Perseus 32.1 before, so I guess it's the new CrossBreeder.

Flashing back to 9.6, will put just Perseus on it.
 
I've noticed that version 10 has just been released. Did any of you try it out yet?
I did and noticed there is an issue flashing 'JB Dominant' (after flashing JKay).

Worked okay for me...

Mind you, something's thrashing my battery, and the usual pointers indicating what it is, just aren't there.
 
CM10.1 and LiquidSmooth are out for this device. Very very buttery! I will be posting a YouTube video on this very soon. =)

I'd be quite interested to know how well it runs, any bugs at all. Tbh, I've very happy on Ripper ROM and with Jkay mod and Domination theme, you'd be hard pushed to tell it from CM.
 
Have to say, that's what I thought :)

I know people say it's a hassle to sell private, but it doesn't have to be. Throw an add on Gumtree for free, it lets you upload a few pictures. State in the add, cash on collection only and wait a week.

Maybe 5 minutes effort, then someone will come to your door and place a big wad of notes in your hand. Personally, I think that's less effort than posting it somewhere.
 
Sounds silly, but are you 100% sure it was the correct ROM? Can you link to it for us?

No service sounds like it has the wrong radio ROM perhaps?
