Android 4.3

I'd like to know what everyone's thoughts are one 4.3 on their S3 so far. I know the 4.3 roms are still in beta, but who anyone consider them daily drivers or are they still just something to tinker with? Thanks for all replies.

Im running PA 4.3 right now and its fine for a DD. The camera can be a bit weird but it works fine 95% of the time. Battery life is amazing running LK. I thought I would have to flash back to TW, but I think im staying with PA for a while.

I figured that would be the one problem if there was any, but that's just how it goes I guess. Thanks for the input. Would you say besides the camera issue, 4.3 is have a noticeable difference that's better than 4.1 and 4.2?

4.3
Any increase in performance?

Sorry guys, this is the first time i've ever run an ASOP rom so I can't tell you about 4.2. I was TW since day one. I was fed up being so far behind in updates that I had to try something. Did my research and decided on PA. The differences I have found are mainly app side. More integration and fluidity between apps and tasks. No reboots or any major bugs have come up. I like the stock android feel. I miss the TW camera but I have a feeling a mod will come around for 4.3.

I'm on PAC man 4.3 and it is so sweet

What's the name of the camera app? I'm thinking about going to this ROM from CM10.1, but I want a good camera.

Check the Apps and Themes forum

[Q] Multi-compatibility

I'm just wondering if there is another phone build that is compatible with the XT897 (i.e. there aren't very many available ROMS for this phone so could I try to install a ROM for lets say the RAZR build on the Photon?

What ROM were you looking for?
If it's built from source, rebuilding it for the Q would be a better idea, and really not that difficult.

I think we've got plenty of ROMs. CM10.2,Liquid Smooth,PacMan and Carbon. I'm still waiting for Liquid Smooth 3x.

There is a family of MSM8960 phones (Photon Q, Razr M, Razr HD, Atrix HD). If a ROM port exists for one of them, it will be easy to port, but has to be slightly reconfigured. In short, you cannot flash other phones ROM directly.

Right now I'm running cm10.2(nightly) on 4.3 os and I love it! I just like taking different ROM's and playing with them. The phone that i had before this one was the Nexus S 4g which was probably one of the most amazing phones I've ever had and I miss it dearly(got water-damaged) because of the fact it was compatible with almost any ROM I found. Even had GS3 stuff running on it at one point. SlimRom was my favorite but I have been wanting to try out paranoidAndroid and the like but wasn't sure if it was compatible with the photon Q. I do like Carbon as well.

So would you just change up stuff in the build.prop to make it work?

Hey don't get me wrong....Carbon is an awesome rom and Liquid Smooth has a lot of potential. I haven't tried PacMan yet though.

There's a few tweaks the Q needs. Again, if you have a ROM you want that there is source available for - it can probably be rebuilt for the Q from source.

Oh yeah I am looking for a good stable ROM with photosphere and able to overclock my cpu to 1.7 or higher.

Overclock is a kernel thing. You can do that on any ROM.
I just Googled Photosphere (had no idea what it was ) and it says a 4.2 feature? Most of the 4.2 ROM's should have it, I would think the 4.3 ones would as well, although they are maturing obviously.

Man I just heard about Android 4.4 KitKat on the news. I just barely got 4.3 about a month ago. What's up with that?

That's right, The boot animation will be an ad for Nestlé. Ads everywhere nowadays.

It is Google after all! So who's making bets on Android 5.0? Lucky Charms?

I was just talking to some friends of mine today about Google back in the '90s making their first million from selling ad space.....I remember that like it was yesterday. Then Yahoo comes along and so begins the Battle of the Search Engines on the Nasdaq.

I just flashed Pacman rom for the Q....I really like it. Dont know why I havent tried this one before.

[Q] new user, one question!

Hi just got the nexus 5 and its rooted rumning cm11 m9 and all is good. What my question is that will franco kernel work with cm11,m9 as im aware the latest version dont but not too sure about cm11 m9. I have tried searching but no luck.

Don't think so...afaik FK doesn't work with CM and derivatives

It should work with older versions, before they implemented CAF, not sure when that happened though.
Kind of pointless though, there are many other roms. Try some out before you decide it is the only one.
Nothing against CM.

Ok thanks for letting me know. Just angry as i gt the franco updater from playstore and it wouldnt let me uninstall or refund it so i had to force uninstall with sd maid pro

Thing is i have tried many roms on my previuos phomes (s4,s1,wave) but i always got back to cm i dunno i guess i only like CM as its stock google-like but with a few moar features. Paranoid is nice but its too much customized for me lol
I guess ill just wait until frano makes it usable again for cm11 m9

Franco will not become cm compatible. CM is the most customised ROM out there, so much so, it is the only (original) ROM to use CAF. You must use a CAF kernel with CM. Chaos is good.
Otherwise if you must use Franco (seems silly) you'll have to use stock or AOSP.

You should give Elemental X a try. It complements CM 11 very well.

If u check the franco thread the warning will jump at you...

You know you can choose which tweaks to use right? You don't have to have 238 DPI with luminous pink signal icons. Though that does sound kinda cool!

Why? Isit less customized? Look my thread was just about asking if franco is compatible with cm, not changing my rom. No offence to any1 but like i said i love cm rom and if franco is a no go then so be it. Geeeeeeeeeeeeeez

Then why mention PA at all? ...and the cite the most ridiculous, childish reason to NOT use it?
If you don't want to cause offense or make yourself look foolish, take more care about what you say. If you don't want to debate anything specific, dont say it at all.
This thread has run its course. Plenty of great cm kernels around.

Port international lollipop?

Just out of curiosity would it be possible to port over the international version of lollipop?

not without a kernel for our variant

The AOSP based CM12 will probably work better than the actual lollipop update. I'm running it on my G3 and it works great. It's like using a mini Nexus 6. I don't use my G3 and much as my Nexus but having the ui be the same is always nice.

I do miss the camera app that LG has but even with google camera it works great.

Its okay. Not the best. The camera seems better on the proper firmware.. The why I was hoping we could port it.. But doesn't look possible since it relys on LGs code.

Is AndroidNow HD ever going to come to D850?

It seems like a highly customizable stock rom, and it's currently using lollipop. So is there any way we can get in on that?

Maybe the ask the developer?

I tried asking, and didn't get a reply.

Literally take the ROM and slap a D850 Lollipop kernel on it.
Of course, if we had one...
