I am currently on the Jellybean 4.1.1 stock rom (poland release) on my i9300.
I have an annoyance whereby if you are browsing the internet for example and the screen times out. pressing the home key wakes the device up but minimises the app (this case the browser)
On CM9 rom this does not happen the device wakes up but the last app is displayed and not minimised. Is there any mod to replicate this on the stock 4.1.1 Rom? I am rooted.

Yea i dislike this 'feature' aswell.
On my good old SGS1 this was working as well...
I think it's a bug. ICS ROMs normally ins't like that. all we can do is wait for another update on the Jelly Bean ROM
also tried formatting my SD card to my 2 S3's same Poland JB ROM it will just eject the card ang remount it, it will not format the card

Can anyone esle also confirm if this is a bug? If so is there any fix or mod that can be applied?
it is evident in all jb leaks so far, yes. Jkays mod fixes this, however it also adds a lot of other features you may not want. Not sure if there is an individual mod/fix though somewhere.

There's an alpha version for JB here.
Didn't you say on another thread a minute ago that you're on CM9?!?!

Thanks, I have been switching between CM9 and stock JB and have 1 annoying issue on each so wanted a fix before deciding which one was going to be my daily driver.
Yeah it's definitely a bug, but it only does it for some apps, not sure why. It was in CM10 for a bit at the start then someone patched it out, not sure what they did exactly. I haven't noticed it for quite some time but I don't use stock browser, I'm running Siyah Kernal, maybe GM patched it?

So are you using JB 4.1.1 or another Rom? It happens in FB and all other apps I have tried?
This annoyed the hell out of me too but I finally found a solution that works for me. Get Widgetlocker (lockscreen app). Once installed, run it, tap the settings icon, go to advanced, homehelper, then enable homehelper component. Now apps that was open before screen was off, are still there when unlocked using home button. Hope this helps you.
Btw. running Omega 27.2 in case you wondered.

Yep JB 4.1.1 or Omega 27.2, and dualbooting with Paranoid Android JB too, both seem fine now.

Installed jkays framework and this has resolved the issue, providing there is no major bugs in this framework I will contnue using this. I know its an alpha but from what I have seen so far seems very stable

I had the exact same problem after flashing checkrom based on XXLIB. This version of checkrom is a "Naked Base" which means a lot of samsung apps are missing... BUT it has the option to flash all those missing apps and functions using one package. After flashing the said package this was FIXED. After that I could press the home buttom after screen timeout and it turned screen on without minimizing the app I was using.
I have same problem with ARHD 11.2 (Android 4.1.1 / I9300XXDLIB), so it seems to be JB related. It don't matter what app I am using, they all do the same. Very small but annoying problem.

Notifications got changed, you can now do a gesture to show more info (more emails etc) - search on youtube.
Blocking mode added, new homescreen modes (easy mode for noobs)
Projectbutter forces the system to run at 60FPS everywhere, removing/reducing lag.
Google Now, better than S-Voice AND SIRI (check youtube).
More free RAM (check Task Manager)
I just installed JB with CM10 and besides some aesthetic modifications, specially in the notifications bar, nothing changed from CM9 with ICS. I guess with Stock ROMs it must be pretty much the same. And CM10 was a bit laggy sometimes so, seen the lack of differences, I went back to ICS:
All the hype on XDA has been from overexcited noobs .
JB is an incremental update nothing more .

JB is more than an incremental update, check the Google IO 2012 video on youtube for complete changes.
CM10 is laggy because of missing HWCOMPOSER sources from samsung, that means project butter and GPU acceleration don't work on CM10 and ROMs not based on samsung builds.
Thanks for the replies .... I'll go check out youtube .

In the s3 notifications have no JB gestures. Project butter is only partly here, not as good as on the nexus. Google now is here, but seems to drain a lot of battery. Other features that are supposed to be in JB: Android beam doesn't work with gallery (which is probably where you want to use it) the gallery is the same as ics and has none of the new gestures, it isn't connected with camera like on true JB. The For now only nexus users know what real jellybean is! I miss my nexus... Touchwiz is quite different from vanilla android and not in any useful or particularly better way!

You're right, I forgot about the 2 finger part! Well, at least we got that, another thing that's missing that I didn't mention is the throw to delete gesture on the homescreen, but a third party launcher can easilly fix that.

so when i am on aokp or cm10, and i tick the "force GPU" setting, are you saying it doesn't work?
i'm on psycho aokp now and it's damn smooth to me, virtually no lags, unlike the prev aokp roms i've tried..
Hey. It seems like the "new" 4.0.4 (4.1.B.1.13) is available through Vodafone. I've just updated my phone and here are my thoughts.
1. The notification led problem hasn't been fixed.
2. There's no new kernel.
3. It's a bit smoother than .587. (Actually it's not. Just placebo.)
4. The touchpad responds better. (Placebo)
5. The dialer is much faster.
EDIT:
6. I'm disappointed in Sony. I've waited so long for this update and it's a pile of t****, slow and buggy. If you're still on GB, stick with it, don't "update"!
EDIT:
7. Sony, are you playing us? Video recording still laggy, audio output is still mono.
EDIT: According to CTCaer the only real change is related to WiFi libraries. There's also a new baseband which might also solve some signal issues. That's all folks! Don't expect better overall performance.
Download: http://d-h.st/WcP
Note. Vodafone branded. Contains carrier bloatware.
Some screens and Benchmarks.
still same pathetic mixed ui
What other changes? more screenshots please)) there is a problem with the network mode?
i'm still curious about what did they update actually. kernel is still the same exact kernel as .587, bit by bit.
if notification led and buggy video record with stabilizer on haven't been fixed, what is the change then?
btw i can see the baseband is .85 now.

Total waste of time. Going back to my sweet ginger because this update is a total fail. Also, this is totally my last Sony phone.
Whether switching of a mode of a network (2G/3G) after reboot is corrected?

Did they fix network mode resetting?
Did they changed, added, removed any widgets?
Is there still double "Fun & Downloads" widget?
Does "media shortcuts" widget still takes 4x2 grid instead 4x1 which is proper?
Is WiFi coverage still as weak as before?
Is app drawer still laggy as before?
Is overall experience still cluttered and choppy as before?
Is gaming still "mission impossible" as before?
I guess it will take some time to answer all this, but we're not rushing anywhere. Take your time.
this is like they mock us -.-
they releasing new firmware with no noticable changes

5,6,7) It's still full of lag. Homescreen switching is slow and choppy, the app drawer is the same. Video recording laggy and mono sounded. Gaming is laggy, for example, Temple Run lags, same as on .587
As for the rest, I can't tell for sure. Once I saw how bad it runs, I switched back to GB.
What's the change except numbers then?
thank god this is xda, custom rom and kernel beat the hell out of oem stock rom.
but at least they tried.
well try again next time, sony. try harder
sony just change number >>>

Like I said before on several occations, Gingerbread is light year ahead of this half-finished ICS wannabe.
In everything - period.
Beside fanciness and somewhat wider choice of apps, which will appeal to "up to date" type of users.
But everything (important) else is on side of GB really. Usability, performance, rock solidness, stability, gaming, etc etc...
As for me, I'm sick of waiting for something to happen, and then being slapped in face harder than before, over and over again.
I was using (torturing myself) ICS in last few weeks just for trying to make myself to like it, and hoping that new update will make it usable finally, but now...
I'm going back to GB for good, at least with this phone. This ICS experience made me appreciate GB even more than before. So, dear fast and usable GB, here I come. I'm sorry I ever left you.

Can anyone recommend on fast, elegant and simple dialer?
Dialer that doesn't look like alien with weird green laser colors on some space wallpaper?
Something white with flowness feeling.. that I can swype left and right smoothly to switch between contacts\ favorite and dialer..
And that it will be *SMOOTH*, and quick load up..
I've tried few and they were all so sluggish and slow.. and takes years to load up.. especially when I need to call some1 NOW..
another important feature which forced me to run from the stock to an external because the stock one doesn't have this is:
Dial by name.. like if I hit "323" it will find "dad" or if I press "326435" it will show "daniel"..
I'm desperate..
Huge thanks ahead for helps!!

Too bad i always liked the % of akku in the status bar, but i will try this version also.
I like ICS for Sola because everything works fine even the fm radio.
The idea behind this rom is great
- latest rockstable android for sola everything works (even fm radio)
- removed bloatware
- superslim and basic
I dont know if its possible, but it would be nice to update the drivers also in this ROM for GPU etc. i have no idea how to do that.. but everytime when i try Sola ROMs with "updated drivers" they hit 10000points in Antutu and run games smoother. (no overclock i mean, just up to date drivers) Otherwise you will stuck at values arround 8000 in antutu and modern games feel more laggy.
I have one bug, when I switch to data transmission. it's turn, logo of HSDPA shows but when I go to browser only can open Google website, everyone else, didn't work... I get this with few STOCK ICS, and still don't know why.... :silly:
@Moglie I can make a SystemUI (maybe flashable) with battery percentage
And the graphic driver thing. Akkufix and me tried to make the JB mali driver runable on ICS and it worked for him but I couldn't integrate it into my ROM without having bootloops :/ Sorry
@Geek1995 Strange. Never had such problems
Flashed, everything works (lags when entering concatc - but this si sony fault), and hell i thought that i never gonna missed sony ui.. Thank you

I believe what he wants to point out that his SJB rom is quite stable, sans the usual bugs of JB on sola. Its good on daily use but not as quite stable as ICS. Also he hasnt anymore his Sola on him so dev on roms will be hard so he needed the help for testers on this rom.
