[Q] Jelly Bean ROM's for Inspire 4G/Desire

After giving it some time for Jelly Bean to hit developers, I've seen 2 versions of Jelly Bean that work on the Inspire, both of which are variants of JellyTime. There is a CM10 version out there, but the Inspire/Desire is not on their supported list and after installing it I can't get it to boot past the splash screen.
Has anyone seen any other JB ROM's out there? I've seen Randomblame's and Synergy's and I must say both are noticeably faster, faster internet, faster APP install, and improved efficiency overall.

Please post all questions in the Q & A section. Thanks!

Those are the two. Since nothing official will be hitting any similar devices it probably won't be a big collection of roms like gb and ics. I bet someday we will see a port of a jelly/sense combo but it will probably be missing stuff so it is actually usable. Our devices are becoming dated compared to jelly bean devices. It's like running windows 7 on an old Athlon. I know I am looking forward to upgrading. My inspire has been a great device, but most of the really great devs have upgraded and moved on, and I can't wait til I can do the same. I've only got 11 more months lol. Keylime(or whatever the k version will be called) will probably be out by then.

My apologies, thanks for moving it. I am new to this.

I've been using randomBlame's jelly bean nightlies for some time now. It is nearly perfect but the one major flaw made me revert back to ice cold sandwich: the screen blacks out when the first sound is initiated after sleep. It's actually a problem with cm10 and it interferes with calls. When that is fixed it will be my new os.

JellyTime
I just flash this rom (below) yesterday night and i must say thsi is the best one I've flashed in awhile.
its fast its good on battery life and the design is Crack lol. only problem i have is the camera function
dont like that i have to snap a shot just to calibrate it. and the Apollo music app, installing a different theme it doesnt seem to work.
other than that the dialer works, wifi is excellent and the battery life is sweet....check it out​

A workaround for camera focus is to hold button and then slide finger off it sideways. It will focus without taking a picture. Works for me.

When I launch the camera application the picture is upside down until I snap a shot. Then it returns to normal operation. :cyclops:

Thank you :good:

I'm currently using JellyTime R13 and I haven't run on any issues. Great battery life, very fast and the camera bug stated earlier in this post is fixed. Only thing not working is the headset controls, but for me that's not a big deal. I use it as my daily driver. I haven't used the other one but I think it should be very similar to JellyTime since both are unofficial CM Nightlies.

Still has backlight issues I think. Biggest deal killer for me is not supporting all wifi channels...

SL101: Rear-Camera upside-down

Since i'm trying to find this issue over 2 months, i open a New Thread in here, in hope some developer will read or normal user who know how to deal with that.
I dont have this problem with others version of android, only with JB.
In JB, my camera is upside down/flipped, even if i want to make a picture or record a movie.
When i playback them, image is still flipped, it is so annoying.
As i said, so many months without an answer on this.
Your help will be much apreciated, thanks in advance!

No answer?

C`mon!

What ROM are you on. Have you tried going back to an ICS based ROM to see if it fixed the problem?

Mulitple Users

Hi All
I am new here so please bare with me.
I have a Samsung Note 10.1 Model GT-N8010 running Android 4.1.2
I was under the impression that the new update (4.1.2) would allow the ability to setup a 2nd user profile.
I can not seem to find the setup process.
If someone can help I would be grateful.
Many Thanks

I think you need to wait for 4.2.1 for multi-user.

No Waiting Buddy, be Happy.
you can use SwitchMe ( Root Required)
available on Google Play Store

Jb 4.2 isn't available from Samsung yet. Even if it was, i wouldn't touch it. The latest update to JB 4.2 still hasn't fixed the bluetooth issue that Google introduced with 4.2. Breaking bluetooth was a pretty bad coding glitch and releasing it to the public just plain sloppy. At times, Google looks as bad as MS.

I think your right, thanks for the help.

I have seen the app that is avaliable, my device is not rooted at the moment, I am thinking of doing it but a little worried I might brick it!
I have owned various android products but never rooted one. The idea of a 400.00 pound brick frightens me lol!

[Leak] 4.2.2 leaks for International S3

MOD EDIT: DO NOT FLASH THE FILE IN THAT ARTICLE, IT IS FOR INTERNATIONAL S3 ONLY!
I can't wait to see what the ROM devs do with this!
Includes some of the non hardware based goodies that the S4 has.
" New features include a familiar array of lock screen widgets and unlock effects, new display modes, a re-tooled quick settings area in the notification pull-down, a new driving mode and an updated version of the S Voice assistant app. Some of the headline Galaxy S4 features like "Air view" hover-touch abilities aren't included -- that's because they're dependent on the S4's internal hardware."

I'm pretty sure that everyone knows that already. Although thank you for pointing it out.
While AOSP is more cutting edge, I like simple functions like Bluetooth volume working correctly as it does on TW.

I have it on my other S3, along with ktoonsez's kernel. While the volume seems to be acceptable, I still get the static and clicking every now and then.
This post is not to compare TW with AOSP, some do like TW based roms.

I'm saying ktoonz does have a tw version of his kernel if that's what you prefer. You could try using the ViPER4Android app and mess with the settings to clean that up. I'm sure someone in that thread could point you to good settings. In not sure if fauxsound amplifies BT, but you could try that as well.

Just wanted to point you in the right direction to fix your Bluetooth issue either through ktoonz's touchwiz kernel, fauxsound app, or ViPER4Android app. You may need to tweak the settings a bit to your liking as i don't know how severe your issue is. Could be the phone hardware, a software issue, a rom issue, or the Bluetooth headset itself causing it. It's not something that's easy to troubleshoot online. Sorry if i lost you, I'm a bit sleep deprived. Sorry if I was vague or rude. On that note, bedtime. Hope you get your issue resolved.

I've never had the Bluetooth issue with a TW ROM, only AOSP.
Thank you for the insight though. Get some rest.

So once the International version gets the official update, we can probably expect to see it 3 or 4 months later thanks to Verizon.

I just read that article and watched the video. Looks like aosp but with a few design tweaks. It would be nice if they just fixed the keyboard in the update. Ha

I wish Verizon would leak more updates. Other phones I have had in the past had new roms almost every week. The Galaxy S3 has been a big disappointment in factory updates, released hardware, and support. Once Samsung neglected to release a decent wireless charge option and Verizon cold shouldered its users, I don't think I'll go back to Samsung. I miss my HTC.

I was looking into inductive charging. Verizon apparently offers a cover....but I can't find it.
Ha and yea the Verizon variant might see this update in September or November and it will most likely have all the cool things removed.....it's almost like they want everyone to root their phones

LiquidSmooth 2.7

Haven't seen anyone post anything about LiquidSmooth, but wanted to let everyone know it's available via Goo. Been running it for almost 24 hours and it seems very snappy and stable, no issues to speak of. Its an AOSP ROM for anyone who doesn't know, so you'll need gapps. I'm not affiliated with them in any way and all credit goes to the LiquidSmooth developers. Just a fan of the ROM!
If this post isn't allowed, just lock it. Or use as discussion about LiquidSmooth since there isn't one for s4...

Your in the right area, everyone is cool, I hope. Does bluetooth work consistently? and I had drop calls right in the middle of a call, random, but there. The rom rocks actually, but those are major bugs to me.

I was just about to post about this. Downloading the ATT build as we speak. Not sure why they haven't made a thread yet but have our carrier build made. Any way, it's nice to add to the ROM selection around here. I was checking out other carrier's ROMs, saw liquid and jflteatt on their goo.... *Profit*

Awesome!
LiquidSmooth is VERY similar to SlimBean feature wise, except for they run a normal DPI out of the box.
I was always switching between these two on my S3.

Don't really use Bluetooth, don't even have anything to test around with either. I'm hoping that when the 'Google Edition' is released that all the feature drivers gets ironed out for AOSP. Camera, BT, GPS, have always been janky with TouchWiz phones on AOSP.

I've been running this ROM for three days? now on my Galaxy S3.
Smooth, fast and stable. No issues that I've found yet. Though, it does seem to take a while for my phone to charge. Battery life is excellent though. Love Halo being added to it as well. Also Halo settings kinda stick... but nothing major.
Great ROM.
