Hello
I bought this phone 3 weeks ago and since then I have always kept GB stock
5 days ago the phone started to have some small stick-slip and 1 time it has also blocked
at that point, given that just can not stand to have a slow terminal, I started to install all roms available on the Internet now, and I was very disappointed ..
Both ICS and JB or had problems or were slow (or all together) and this thing just is not suited me. ESPECIALLY THE WEB BROWSER THAT'S VERY IMPORTANT FOR ME
I am looking for a phone without many pretensions, but it is always fast to what I have to do, without locking up, while remaining reliable to top
mainly use the phone to call (but should be?), sms, whatsapp, email and Fb (the latter 3 course always push) and all roms try every time did not manage to keep open these apps (like the dialer) and every time you had to wait for it to reopen (I know, a few seconds .. but it bothers me) and in any case even if it remained in the Rams were still slow ...
so I wanted to share with you that I found the configuration that is giving me great satisfaction these days
I used stock rom as GB ... the only one without too many delays and the only one with all the drivers (like the status bar or Wi-Fi) perfectly installed, optimized and running
I tried the other rom, but got stuck for no reason, and even the basic functions like call and send text messages had serious problems
for speed up the system i have used Smart Launcher with the "notification for Smart Launcher"
from the phone looks minimalist, as in my case immediately gives me everything I need

The stock Lockscreen I really liked the fact that some things like text messages were displayed, but third-party programs like Hotmail, whatsapp and Facebook did not work, and since I could not find one with this feature that I liked and it was light, and view graphics on the home, I decided to use the NO Lock to disable it
because we will not want to activate widgets in the home (consumes a lot of ram) I used NOTIFICATION TOGGLE to have all the shortcuts I want in the notification bar (including the torch)
having said that, the speed is great, and the battery consumption is gorgeous (one day heavy use, just using it for two days)
look how little consumes night that 'I left with wifi off and screen off
I hope I was helpful, and if you have any questions / suggestions as well ask
HAVE A NICE DAY
The problem with this phone is limited ram. First off, I suggest using greenify. It keeps apps from waking up and running in the background.
As far as Roms go, xnovathor project is the lightest ROM. Pure aosp jelly bean 4.1.2, just as mommy Google made it. Clean install no apps, 200mb free ram. With Facebook, what's up, g+, etc, I still get 80 to 100 MB free.

Not sure if it is specific to the Market app or if it on Google's backend, but the 'trial' period for paid apps (return window) is now only 15 minutes instead of 24 hours.
Pros & Cons
So, it shortens the time for refunds, could be slower than previous version... Any reason I would have to hurry up to install it
? Sooner or later google is going to shove it down my throat doing a forced automatic update most likely
worked for me
thanks
New market is slow.

The new market UI is sooooo much worse than the original one... The HUGE part of a screen occupied by a green useless bar is horrible. The screen size for the list, the thing I'm more interested in, is much smaller. Carousel for featured apps - I'd much rather see the apps in the list than swiping them.
This's just my opinion, of course
Im really liking this new market app. I think its a very clean ui and I don't miss the tabs at all. Reviews and related and developer info all on one page. Seemed as fast as the last version.

While i like the overall look of the new market i agree, you should have the option of hiding the carousel. Definatly takes up to much screen/app list space. Would be nice to be able to slide it up/down much like the notification dropdown.
Also think the 15 min trial is not enough time to test so apps, i.e. Location based apps. Say you DL it indoors/area with no GPS signal and by the time you can get outdoors to test you realize app doesnt work because of a defective GPS ;-). I think trials periods should be developers choice with a minimum of 30 mins

Have cm6.1 Beta3 installed and get nothing but fc's. If i clear data through manage applications I get it to present terms and conditions and after I accept I see the new UI for a sec (if that) before it just exits and fc's repeatedly.
tried it and it's looking good. but seems a little bit laggy.

Hi
I have a Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 running on WanamLite XXELKC V5.1.
I just put this new ROM in recently. But now I notice that my battery is getting drained faster than before. The stock battery stats shows that google services is the major contributor.
Any ideas ?
try to disable google now's features.. just open google now and then his settings..
if you have your s3 rooted, you might just delete/move the apps from /system/app folder to your sdcard,
i moved a lot of apps that were consuming battery and now its better so... just another way

The point is... Before tHis ROM, I was running the stock 4.1. 1, with even Google Now turned on....
So i should be able to do the same with this ROM too right.....
I've tried different roms and all the time the battery drain was due to google now
Turn off WiFi location access as when that's on maps will run in background as well as network location service.
Disable apps that run all the time (facebook, Whatsapp). I use App Quarantine to do this, places a widget where you can click to disable, clock to enable +open.
Reduce auto sync apps and their frequency. I generally only have gmail auto.
Before leaving your phone to sleep for 10+ minutes, kill background processes. Majority of the time my ruining apps is ONLY Android Keyboard, (set CPU if I feel like using profiles).

Too bad, but the battery is still so much better than the iphone for length right?
whatsapp consomes closely to no energy.
My Iphone lasted about as long as my S3 with all process tuned (location services off and so on)

All of what you said does make sense....
I don't think that any of my settings have changed after getting the new ROM... So what i am trying to understand is why Google services is suddenly eating up all my battery.....
Anyhow, somewhere someone Suggested to delete all the accounts and add them again..... I tried that and somehow today Google services doesn't seem to be there in the list of battery draining apps......
Let me Keep am eye.... Will keep you posted......

Ah, so V6 supercharge script isn't working for Xperia U or say any phone with 512 mb ram. Well, we have always concentrated on freeing RAM memory than actually using it. Because we think the more free RAM we have, the more Apps we can use at the same time. But guys that's not how Android works. You should let your phone use all the RAM memory it has. By limiting it, you're only telling your phone to keep a certain amount of memory "free" all the time and android does its job well by doing it. So if you tell your phone to keep 125 mb free it will keep it and kill other apps for it, even the launcher . That's unused space. And yeah now you will think that when apps are loaded on ram they are active and using CPU time, NO! They are paused because you're not using them. Android automatically excludes the apps which have not recently been used from the RAM as soon as you load an App which was not loaded earlier.
Now let's talk about the values. I've kept 12,18,25,40,45,50 by using the 10th option from the V6 script.
Launcher rarely redraws. (Actually not yet happened with me )
No running apps are restarting.
services.jar not patched. Only using OOM settings. No extra kernel settings either. 75% charged
I seriously recommend not patching services.jar, just set these values or you can set your values to see the difference in performance.
That's all for now. Enjoy!
Only 13 mb RAM memory is free. I know the image isn't that clear.

My phone isn't lagging at all. But facing battery problems a bit. I'm working on that now.
odd
It is kind of odd because my phone tends to lag more after I run the v6 script. But on the other hand, my gaming experience improves. Am I doing it wrong?

WRONG!
My phone is fast and smooth now. When I share something from facebook to another app say Whatsapp, and when I come back to facebook I don't have to wait for facebook to load again. Even after that my launcher doesn't redraw.
Few bugs are solved now.
Guys, there were a few bugs but now I've overcome them. They're under testing. Soon i'll release them. I guarantee you that by applying my settings, the battery percent will take few minutes to drop. Before it used to take a minute to drop 2-3%. Now 1% will take more than that.

well that's interesting.. I've also been testing around with supercharger script and didn't find any values that actually pleased me... so the only thing I did was patching services.jar and locking launcher on memory. I'm going to try it your way and let's see if I actually can feel any difference. BTW I'm running JB with phantom kernel.

I haven't tried it on JB tho. BTW I'm using Greenify to hibernate apps. But still i faced redraws. So I put values like very low. 8,12,22,30,35,40 current values and i'm testing this. Yday I patched services.jar and so far it's working fine. Until i'm pretty sure about it I'm not recommending patching it.

i dont use stock launcher.. i download and use nova as soon as i flash any rom, so i have not faced the problems mentioned above. PAC rom as always bring forth the best cherry-picked features... but just as i've faced before in every PAC ROM (galaxy nexus, xperia z, etc.) system UI keeps crashing at every notification arrival blaming Tyler each time ... perhaps it has something to do with the way i use android... usually at very low LCD density (200) and tablet UI (1000dp) with systembar replacing nav and status bar. so the notificaiton part might be messing things up... its not there when i use the same settings in Paranoid Android, but ofcourse there are tonnes of more options in PAC and that could be the reason for this... but with perhaps Active Disply features like pocket mode n others combined, half the times, i cant use the bloody phone.. i cant turn it back on from sleep because the stupid syetem UI may be stuck in the background and will let the lockscreen be engaged i guess. I end up having hard reboot the phone (press + hold the power button + vol up + vol down) to restart the phone in such situations.. but i've had these problems with all PAC ROMs, and have always ended up moving back to PA or AOKP or carbon for those phones.
Anyway, thanks for bringing PAC to xperia z ultra. the lack of RM choices for this phone was getting on my nerves. hope i get these problems fixed this time around.

Cannot change network type from 2G to 3G or LTE
Hello Guys,
I am unable to change network type from 2G to 3G or LTE. I've tried everything I can think of like changing sim slots, reboot, etc.
Please suggest, is it a bug or is there a trick.
Thanks in advance
I am fully stock running OOS 3.0.2 and everything is much faster but I have one issue. Internet is working strange when I am connected to wifi. It has normal download speed but it is still "working" slow. I don't know how to describe that. When I go to Youtube for example and tap one video it will "load" video for long time before it starts but when video really start it will go normally without buffering and problems. Same thing with Instagram or any other app. When I go to instagram it will refresh posts for long time but once it has refreshed I could do everything else with normal speed.
