This paper presents Flow-Time Theory (FTT) v3. 0, a phenomenological scalar field formulation in which time is associated with a fundamental scalar field Φ (x). We construct the total action coupled to general relativity and write the extended Wheeler-DeWitt equation as a formal construction, showing that coordinate time disappears from the fundamental equation while Φ persists. The FTT entropy functional SFTT is defined continuously using tanh regularization, eliminating singularities present in previous versions. The interaction Lagrangian uses a fermionic current J^μ = ψ̄ γ^μ ψ with ψ interpreted as a dark fermion condensate (a phenomenological assumption), yielding a coupling ξ ∂_μΦ J^μ. Linear response theory then gives ⟨J^μ⟩ ∝ ∂^μΦ, and irreversible thermodynamics leads to the coupling equation dSₜhermo/dt = ∫σᵢrr d³x - |γ| dSFTT/dt, where |γ| is a phenomenological constant to be determined experimentally. Complete mirror symmetry between entropy increase and decrease is restored. The cosmic direction U (average of ∇ρₜ) is assumed to originate from inflationary quantum fluctuations; it leads to a testable directional prediction for the P1-U ice-water experiment: the ice growth rate modulation should exhibit a dipole pattern as the magnetic field rotates relative to celestial coordinates. Existing Lorentz violation bounds are satisfied because the effect scale ∼ H₀ is below current sensitivity. The superluminal group velocity from D (∇²Φ) ² obeys Sommerfeld-Brillouin signal front causality. The theory offers a phenomenological account of the 10¹22 vacuum catastrophe and provides a concrete experimental protocol. A separate information retrieval protocol (P5 experiment) has been empirically validated: independent analysts, given only a precise temporal anchor, can retrieve specific event information (past or future) with Cohen's d > 0. 8, p < 0. 001. All predictions were posted on public social media platforms with server-recorded timestamps prior to the events (or, for past events, prior to public verification). This result is independent of the core physical predictions but provides empirical support for the theoretical framework. A dedicated "Limitations Statement" (Section 14) explicitly lists all assumptions and open problems, including the emergence of time, the dark condensate hypothesis, the phenomenological nature of γ, the local‑global equivalence for U, the effective magnetic‑field mechanism, and the formal character of the Wheeler‑DeWitt extension.
