Root {DISCONTINUED}MegaTron 6.2.5 (Updated 7/13/13)

ROM has been updated to 5.3.0 the installation instructions have been changed because mavrickmeercat and i have decided to use flashable.zip from now on. This updates includes major bug fixes and the removal of useless apps that dropped 70 MB of the ROM. The signal bars have been enhanced and the system should be a bit more smooth. If you would like the screen fix and Bobs new kernel please head here Here after you install this update, once done restore bobs new kernel that he has in the OP. The kernel will be manually added later on in an update thank you.

This is the part where me and mavrick sit back have a couple drinks and relax after weeks of getting this baby working great. We wont be adding any new features soon other than updates for bug fixes and to include bobs new kernel. We are gonna wait till 2.3.6 is released so we can rebuild the ROM from scratch on the new update.
 
I updated to 5.3.0 and i must say it does boot way faster now u guys did a awesome job .TY again for this rom its one of my favorites and i have tried them all lol,one thing i noticed about the new update,after i ran the zip with no issues it came time to reboot and it was stuck just on a black screen and i had to pull battery.But after i pulled battery i went back into cwm and just hit reboot,and the phone booted fine,other than that no issues im a happy as hell lol.

ps:bobs new kernel worked like a charm too :)

Glad you like the new update, and yeah the blank dark screen after hitting reboot in cwm is a cwm problem it can be fixed by what you did, a simple battery pull.
 
Having some problems with 5.3.0. Unplugged my phone this morning at 100% battery, was charging overnight. Got to work and noticed battery was at 90%. plugged into computer usb and computer saw device but not charging. in settings kept flipping back and forth between usb connected to not charging. my battery went from 90% to 76% in about 5 minutes. tried rebooting, didnt help battery issue but started getting "android system (process system) has stopped" advenced restore of system didnt help

boot into cwm do a factory reset wipe cache and dalvik as well as fix permissions.
 
GPS fix is coming soon guys, im getting my phone mid next week. we will be putting together some fixes that might help and when i get my phone i will test them, Plus any anyone get my a Logcat of whats happening here?. Until then if you use GPS on a daily basis Please revert back to 5.1 thank you.


EDIT: Problem Solved
For those who are having GPS problem please go to settings--> application--> manage--> All tab. once you go that go down to google maps and tap on it. then select uninstall all updates and clear data/cache. Once done please reboot your phone then open the android market and hit the menu button and tap on my stuff and update google maps. reboot your phone and test GPS again.
Thanks to Mackharoni for the fix.

I've got to say I'm having the opposite effect... I'm using bobzhome's kernel and getting the best battery life I've ever had..

let it die completely, and when i mean completely i mean dont make it even power up. then recharge while its off. Wait until it reaches 100% then boot the phone.

did a factory reset and used my prevail USB cord to plug into wall. battery charged normally. so I'm thinking my USB cord crapped out. but I'm still a bit nervous about plugging into work computer. thanks to all for the help
 
Im having 2 issues with the latest build. 1. I'm having an issue with the battery as far as when its charged still on the cord it sometimes rapidly vibrates over and over like its trying to charge with no cord there and 2. My camera wont take the pic. It will focus but wont actually take the pic. FYI for you guys but other then that its awesome. Thanks.
 
I love the new rom, but titanium backup pro will not run. I purchased it when using ver. 5.1 and backed up everything using it, but now under 5.3 it says installed, but will not run so I can not restore my backups. Can anyone help me out. Much appreciated. Keep up the great work.


Also I have noticed a serious power drain. I am using bobz kernel with setcpu and in 10 minutes my battery dropped 10 percent. With 5.1 and setcpu I had no problems with battery drain. I am currently charging phone back up to 100 percent and then will see how it does. With titanium not working and the power drain issue, I might go back to 5.1 for now It was working great for me.

as for the camera and gps issue, I am having no problems there.

I just tested camera to see if it works for me, works fine for me.. I'm runnng 5.3 with bobzhome's kernel. As for the charging vibrating issue I have seen it but I just assumed its because my friends dog dined on my power cord and it is iffy when charging. Prolly is that but I thought id voice my possible similiar issue in case...

Dunno bro I'm running the latest version fine...

Did you install the free version and then the pro key or just the pro key?
 
OK. Never mind about titanium. Stupid mistake on my part. I just installed the pro key and forgot to install the app. Was a long nite at work, sorry for that dumb question. Thanks for pointing out my mistake. LOL I am still however, having a battery drain problem.
 
Is bob's kernal included in 5.3.0? In nofrills the values don't go any higher that 1024 :confused:

I even wiped system before installing the rom through CWM zip flash
