[SGS3-R530M] Metropolis Rom [4.3 Touchwiz]

[edgeez25]

Best thing todo is get a list of bloat ware thats safe to remove and make a flashable zip so anyone that wants the add on can flash it. If you want to go that route, I can make a list a little later on and send it to you.?

Thanks for the update and the countless hours that you have put into this SIII community.

+1 on this I really only use mymetro to pay the bill...

Where can I download 1.0.3? I'm currently on 1.0.2 and have been having many issues..such as flickering long delays..MMS not working and overheating when charging.

He means where a notification box comes up like go sms

I also seen this on a missed call only though not on incoming text

So since this doesn't have any odex files does that mean we can drop in the themechooser apk and theme our phones that way?

Just tried this. It almost wants to work but force closes after a few seconds.

Are you guys doing clean installs? I flashed over 1.0.2 with no problem. It did a check to see if older version was installed. Maybe that's where you guys run into error?

 

[morgankslade]

Cant get no cleaner with wipe factory reset, wipe system.
Or can you?

But that's what I mean. I dirty flashed it over an older version. (1.0.2) Clean installs fails because when it checks for an older version, it's not there. Just a guess btw...

If you have adblocker installed adfly won't work. Do you see the adfly page at all? wait for five seconds and click the top right.

Im on 1.0.3 with a fresh install I came from that liquid smooth rom. It said something during flash about not bieng compatable and to wipe everyrhing when it was done flashing but I did NOT wipe after flashing only before flashing and I am.haaving no known issues I am flashing using cwm and I flashed straight from recovery

this is a full install, a wipe is not needed if you are coming from previous version. as stated in the changelog the script it is smarter, i need to look into how to go about wipeing it for you automatically if you are coming from a different rom. wipeing before or after has teh same effect but its one extra nice thing you guys wouldnt have to worry about

if you wipe system then you will not be able to install the rom, it uses the build.prop to verify you are on an older version. in the future i plan on being able to customize it even further

i needed a full install for a few reasons, but this allows anyone who is wanting to check out the rom to just jump in and go, hoping to make future updates in full/patch downloads so people who flash can just grab the latest zip for a much smaller download

I know with my phone I have to open the kies app on my computer for it to recognize it...

Still not recognizing....

Duh...sorry guys I've been out, came in and discovered that my usb was still plugged into the electrical outlet and not my computer...I feel like a big dummy
Everything is fine now!...phone and computer, in sync!

 

[monica12]

So just flash 1.0.0 again and then 1.0.3?

 

[edgeez25]

Oh i see i reloaded my 0.0.5 and flashed over and works

 

[Shabbypenguin]

any rom will work as it will pull build.prop, however if it isnt metropolis rom it will advise and say to wipe etc etc...

Also for anybody interested Note 2 cam works on the latest build... Thanks Shabby
