Root [Virgin Mobile] Official LiquidSmooth Nightlies!!

Just uploaded my personal version of the latest nightly (3/22), same additional goodies as the 3/10 build, along with a new calculator app in place of the default, and the eri.xml file has been replaced with the VM one, so if you flash the latest APN fix from the amazing @MopedRyder, your carrier label will show as Virgin Mobile. Thanks to Moped as always, and thanks to the team at LiquidSmooth for making such an awesome ROM!

LiquidSmooth KitKat Nightly 20140322.zip | ROM by struckn for Galaxy S3

Did this version remove the Appbar? I don't see it in the menu anymore. I hope it comes back because it was one of my favorite features so far.

Yes. LS keeps a lot of that info posted on their G+ page just fyi, since they don't run a page with a dedicated changelog. Sidebar Pro in Play Store will provide the same functionality.

Well I've had 2 reboots since last night. The first was right after I had set the phone down, and the second was about an hour ago, as soon as I touched the WiFi tile on the notification bar the phone went straight to the LS boot animation.

Idk lol I guess my phone is just finicky

Edit: 7:04 pm rebooted again just sitting, hadn't touched it in over 15 min lol

I've had two random reboots recently, both while navigating with Waze. I'm not sure if it's Quantum or the ROM or something else yet, but I wasn't having random reboots prior to installing LS and Quantum. I think I may install struckn's latest LS ROM next, and skip using Quantum for a bit. I am mostly connected to charger so battery life isn't a big deal to me right now.

From what I've seen online as well, looks like navigation is giving people issues on multiple KitKat ROMs, but mostly from using Google Maps. Haven't had a chance yet to try mine, maybe I will turn it on for the drive home from work tonight just to see. Will test out Waze at some point soon too.

So today when I Was skating to class listening to music my phone randomly rebooted. It was taking forever to boot up so I did a battery pull and tried to reboot again. It took forever but it finally did boot. Once it did boot up however, I got this message....(this being the banner) System UID's inconsistent with this underneath it, "UID's on the system are inconsistent, you need to wipe your data partition or your device will be unstable." What does this mean? What do I do? ignored the message one time but then my phone started to tweak out and then it rebooted when I put in the password for my schools wifi. The phone rebooted and now the message is back up however, I cant click on anything at all. I'm planning on doing a full wipe and fresh install but any input about this is really appreciated.

I keep getting reboots everytime I try to play music. Whenever it happens google play services keeps force closing and some of my apps data gets wiped. Any input on why this could be happening or what I should do?

I'm running the 3/28/14 LS and having no problems with the music player. Haven't experienced any reboots either.

Does anyone have a problem with the camera not being clear and streaks when I use flash???? Or is it just me.

A lot of random reboots here too. I haven't tried to catlog it yet. Not real motivated right now. I may revert to a back.

The 03/09 build was stable too. Im gonna try the 3/13 suggested by jr9306

edit: Ive been on 3/18 version

Back on 3/15 build myself. Zero reboot issues but having strange texting issues, mainly with SMS not sending and getting duplicates on incoming SMS. Plus, this build has AOSB recents panel, which is my favorite.

On 3/10 here. Woke up this morning to my밈alarm and couldn't shut it down because phone was just showing a black screen. I was in hell, I have a case on too so couldn't even take out battery. Being dazed from just waking up, it took me a while to remember that I could hold power button to shut it down.

I moved from LS 3/18 to LS 3/13 today, based on JR9603's recommendation. I don't yet know whether this will cure my reboot issue with Waze. If it doesn't then I'll be moving back to JDSingle's deknoxed 4.3.

I also switched from Quantum to DKP and from Trickster MOD to Andromizer.

I have chosen to not install Visual VM app this time. I've noticed that when I listen to VMs with it that later I will get obscure sounds that I can't stop except by rebooting.

My last days experience with Waze on 3/18 was a bit crazy. Waze kept telling me that I was at my destination when I requested navigation. But I wasn't, I was more than 10 miles from my destination. I get the feeling that Waze is having GPS issues. I'm still not sure whether to blame Waze or the OS. I've tried changing the GPS accuracy setting but that made no difference.

Another issue, the Dropbox app won't let me try to login. The UI just vanishes when I click either login, or create new login. This has been the case on both LS 3/18 and 3/13. I can still access Dropbox via ES File Explorer and other apps, just not the Dropbox app. Weird.

I noticed that playing Royal Revolt 2 is a little less smooth now, probably due to settings of DKP. I used freelunch and Zen based on prior posts here. I'll have to play around and find what I can change to make it better, but only after I figure out if my Waze reboot issue is fixed.

I haven't had any camera issues apart from the issue I had that caused use of the front camera to cause a reboot. The photos I have taken show no signs of problems like in Darien153's post.
