I'm having a lot of bugs on 1.05 I don't know if I flashed it correctly. I did my normal process (backup, wipe, flash, reboot) maybe I need to wipe cache and dalvik after? There's no straight up instructions on this thread. Gallery force closes, rom setting force closes


Sometimes that helps right after you flash the rom. & you can go into advanced (on twrp) & fix permissions. That will generally help too
Also, what kinda wipe did u do? Personally I go all out & take no chances. I do factory, system,& internal. That way there's nothing left to cause problems

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the Note2 & S3 are the same except for size. So anything that can be taken from the Note2 can be used on the S3. I know the camera works on ours, so why not anything else?

Framework is different. Note 2 uses a Exynos 4412 quad core, our S3 uses a duel core Snapdragon (S4)... so, some things can be ported over.

I'm on 1.0.5 but it still says 4.1.1, does that even matter? just curious..

i had assumed the new leaked was 4.1.1 as well and so i grabbed the build.prop i had planned for my original 1.0.5. i realized my error after i started teh upload.


im terribly confused? pop up browser was added by myself in an earlier version. and 1.0.5 it comes natively.

Hey Shabby, you forgot an addon. The note2 camera & gallery from post #178.

thats just a flashable i was more referring to addons that were created for this rom :)

considering this is a thread dedicated to a group effort to give back to the community something they wanted. me , shabby and others prefer to support our in-house devs and team effort. alot of you guys are using stuff from the us cellular site/forum and thats cool but instead of posting such comments like
why waste time when you can just get chemistry?
thats just disrespectful shabby has put in alot of man hours for free just to give back to this community. to be honest ive never used anything made for us cellular and i refuse to use such things. i have my reasons. if you prefer using stuff made for another phone else where thats great we hope you continue to enjoy it. Ya wanted stock jellybean rom for metro ya got it!
