[SGS3-R530M] Metropolis Rom [4.3 Touchwiz]

[ARocker]

You could wait for shabby to chime in or you could try it and either confirm this issue or perhaps it will work for you. Back up either way.

 

[n4zty]

so wait since ppl are getting issues with flashing this do i wait till shabby updates?

well this was suppose to be the public version release we currently using a raw dev enegineeing build of this metro firmware it has lots of stuff that neither of us know whats its for, we decided it was best to strip most of it since alot of you guys are curious and wont be able to resist messing with such settings that might mess something up. that way we avoid such epic threads where such members beg for help lol. but if your wondering if its working trust me its flawless.

Ok shabby decided to go ahead and release the previous version which has such dev tools now i will warn you guys If you dont know what it does dont play with it!!!

Hey nasty. So 1.0.0 is 1.0.1 with the dev items included. Other than that they're the same?

 

[n4zty]

[ARocker]

try the link i posted shabby was in a lil bit of a rush he might of messed up in his script somewhere.

 

[krazeekirk]

Flashing Now ! Quick question after 1.0.1 is fixed will we be required to do a completely new flash? Doesnt really matter just curious.

 

[Hwramirez]

Flashed but just stays in Samsung galaxy s3 screen

 

[Avera6]

Same here

 

[Shabbypenguin]

sorry bout the issues folks, version 1.0.0 works fine it takes a WHILE to boot. thank you krazeekirk for the exact error, makes it so i know exactly what to fix

a full wipe will not be required to go from 1.0.0 to 1.0.1, its a minor bump and only time youlll be recommended to wipe is on major changes like 1.0.0 to 2.0.0

 

[krazeekirk]

Flashed up and running .. guys try re downloading? IDK

thats the previous version should work, shabby had me swap links just to let ya have something working for the moment. newer build has adb added to it and some other things.

 

[krazeekirk]

Not a problem Shabbypenguin! any thing to help. on 1.0.0 working great, waiting on your 1.0.1! Thanks Again!

 

[Hwramirez]

Format system lol. Now it works I forgot :/

 

[n4zty]

Format system lol. Now it works I forgot :/

lol yes wipe system not format lol you scare peeps when saying that word

well just incase people wonder

1.factory data reset in recovery!
2.wipe system!
3.Install rom
4.Reboot!
5.N-Joy!

Things to be pointed out! you may experience 1 boot loop then once it reboots you may notice it remains on the metro pcs splash logo for more than a min. eventually you will see white soft key light up and screen dims from there it will enter first time setup of your device you know for gmail and what not.

Shab can you add notifcation and ring volume sync in next version? Its a hoe having to constanly adjusting them manually.

Also volume rocker to change mp3 tracks while screen is off would be nice too.

 

[n4zty]

keep in mind this isnt a custom rom its a stock firmware. Im sure if he makes a rom based off this firmware he could add some of those modifications. But then again why would any1 make a rom based off of 4.1.1 when theres roms already being made off of 4.2.1

 

[terrellz]

Hmm for some reason im getting force closes on the welcome screen and not sure how to get back into recovery, any ideas?
Nvm got it working

 

[ARocker]

Very nice and with many options. Well done!

Thanks so much for your and all contributors efforts!

 

[Hwramirez]

Volume up+ home button + power

 

[n4zty]

Lol has any1 noticed adding a new contact to your contacts gives you the option to save to sim or contacts? only ask once though.
