[OFFICIAL] Kyrillos' ROM Problems, Questions & Answers

Hello to all
Too many people don't have enough posts to post on my rom's thread.
So i decided to created a new thread in general!
Here you can post your problems or ask something you dont understand for the flashing process etc.
Will be posted flashing info and known flashing problems here soon.
So feel free to post your question, or report a bug!
1. How to flash Kyrillos' rom?
- Instructions: Here
2. I just flashed Kyrillos' rom and after flashing the phone bootloops (it plays the same boot sound again and again).
- You havent done a Wipe data/factory reset in Recovery mode. Remove the battery & re-insert it, go into recovery mode (Vol up + Vol down + home + power), and select the Wipe data/factory reset option. Click yes, and reboot.
3. The phone booted but my sd partition isnt working. What should i do?
- Firstly you have to ensure that you put the Hybrid Data2SD files in your sdcard. They are contained in v8.0 rom you downloaded. You can also download them from here. You must put the four files (data2sd.dirs, fs.data2sd, multiosdata, multiosdata.cache) in /sdcard/Android/data/G3mod/*. Then reboot your phone and your partition should work.
4. I partitioned my sdcard but i dont see the free sdcard (a2sd) space in Titanium Backup.
- Hybrid Data2SD doesnt show up in Titanium Backup. Its normal Fixed
5. After restoring my backup with Titanium Backup, i dont see all my apps in Android Market.
- Go in Titanium Backup, find Android Market and wipe Android Market's data. Reboot your phone, and it should be ok.
6. I have too much lag!
- Make sure that you dont have more than 50 User Apps installed in your phone.
- Go in titanium and do a batch operation: Move all apps to internal memory
- If you have a linux-swap partition in your sdcard, delete it.
- Go in Settings/Sound and disable all Feedback sounds (leave the haptic feedback checked if you want )
7. I have battery drain issue.
- Let the battery calibrate itself and after 3-4 days recheck if the problem remains.
- If your problem isn't fixed and you have installed the Overclocked version, install Setcpu and change the governor to OnDemand or Conservative. You can try to Undervolt/Underclock the cpu too. You should make a screen off profile (83min - 400max) too.
- If SetCPU is not used, in OC version, CPU frequency is at stable 800MHz, on performance, so there MUST be a battery draining^^
So, SetCPU is absolute nesassary to be installed and set up. Best working governour is ondemand, if it laggs, drop up threshold in advanced to lower level.
8. What are the best settings for setcpu? [Updated 25/10/11]
- Main tab: Min 83Mhz, Max 800-1200MHz, Scaling: Ondemand (or Conservative), Set on boot: Tick
- Profiles tab: Set on boot: tick
- Profile (1): In call: 83min, 400max, Scaling: Ondemand, Priority:100
- Profile (2): Time profile: 1AM - 7AM (here put the time you sleep), min/max 83MHz, Scaling: Powersave, Priority: 99
- Profile (3): Screen off: 83min, 400max, Scaling: Ondemand, Priority:98
- Voltages: Try -100mV in all frequencies from 500-1200. If it hangs, try -75mV/-50mV, apply, set on boot: tick
9. How to enable v6 supercharger?
- Go in Terminal Emulator, type "su" hit [enter] (you may see a superuser popup, press "Allow", then type "v6_supercharger" hit [enter]
- Choose scrolling speed "2".
- It will ask you if you want intergration with init.rc, choose yes (press Y).
- It will ask you if the home is locked in memory, choose no (Press whatever you want except Y)
- When you see this: Please enter option 1-30, enter 2
- Let the rest of the text scroll through. When script finishes, press the home button, then press the power button and reboot the phone.
- For best results, go in recovery and wipe dalvik-cache and cache.
Note: You must re-enabled v6_supercharger after kyrillos' rom updates!
10. I have a partition in my sdcard and each time i try to install an app from market, the phone just reboots!
- This could be a corrupted filesystem problem. Make a backup d repartition your sd.
- Wipe data/factory reset.
11. I really miss some removed apps. Where can i find them & how to install them?
- You can find any app you want in this thread [By Dharam]
- To install an app, you must put it in /system/app/. There are many ways to do that.
- a) Copy the app you want to install in your sdcard. Use an app, which called root explorer. Open it, find the app you want, copy it, navigate to /system/app/, press the Mount R/W button on the top-right of your screen once, the click paste. Reboot your phone.
- b) You must know how to use adb. adb push appname.apk /system/app/
12. Kies isn't working.
- I highly recommend you to stop using Kies and start using Titanium Backup!
- Anyway, to get it working you must download this and this app and put it in /system/app/
13. How much left data space is normal to have after i install Kyrillos' rom?
- If you dont have partition in your sdcard: ~112MB
- If you have partition in your sdcard: ~150+MB
14. Gps isn't working.
- The gps in our phone isnt the best. I did try to make it better and for many users i did succeed.
15. I have partition in my sdcard but internal storage is still 200MB instead of eg. 1200MB (if partition => 1GB)
- Its normal. Your partition works as it should, but its not full data2sd, and thats the reason that it doesnt show 1200MB.
16. One of my apps cant start because it detects that i have adblock on my phone.
- Download Adfree Android from Android Market, open it and click "Revert"
17. When i sent messages in Arabic it displays ??? ? ? ???? ??? ???
- Go in messaging settings => Input Mode: and change it to Automatic or Unicode
18. I want to set an mp3 file as ringtone or notification sound. What should i do?
- Make a "media" folder in your sdcard. Inside it make an "audio" folder and then make a "ringtones" or "notifications" folder and place the mp3. Reboot and select it from settings
19. The order of the messages is fu**ed up. How to fix it?
- Go to Settings => Date and Time. Untick "Automatic" and et the correct Time Zone!
20. Sometimes i see squares instead of letters.
- It happens because the Ubuntu font. Download android fonts from v9.0_extras if you cant live with it
21. What about themes? How can i know if a theme is compatible with kyrillos rom?
- Firstly, you have to check it it supports nine lockscreen. (If it doesnt, contact the developer of the theme and ask him to enable his theme 9 lockscreen support)
- You can replace any if the theme files EXCEPT: Settings.apk, android.policy.jar, framework.jar, services.jar. If you do replace any if those, your phone will bootloop.
- Enjoy the theme
22. What is Chainfire3D? How to configure it? (Use version v2.8)
- Info: Chainfire3D is an intermediary OpenGL driver. What does that mean? It means that Chainfire3D sits between your apps and the graphics drivers, and can intercept and/or change commands between the two. It has some built-in functions, and can be further extended with plugins to provide extra functionality. (More info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1087427)
- With Kyrillos' rom v9 + Chainfire3D you can play some 3d games, or play some games better than before & without white textures.
- Chainfire3D installation: Ensure that you have Kyrillos' rom v9 OC. Download Chainfire3D Free or Chainfire3D Pro, run it, accept the su permissions. Press "CF3D driver", and then press "Install". The phone will reboot in a few seconds/minutes.
- Plugin installation: When it boots up, download the plugins (search for Chainfire3D plugins on google. Plugins: libGLEMU_NVIDIA.so, libGLEMU_POWERVR.so, libGLEMU_QUALCOMM.so), put the in your sdcard and open the app. Press "Install Plugins and Shaders". The app will search your phone to see if there is any plugin available in your sd. Install all the three plugins. Go back to the main app menu.
- Configure Chainfire3D: In the main app menu, press "Default OpelGL settings". Select the option "Reduce texture quality", and then choose plugin by pressing "Use plugin". There are 3 choices: Powervr, Qualcomm & Nvidia.
- Test the plugins: Select the "Powervr" plugin and run the game you want. Run it for a minute. Then close the game and change the plugin to "Qualcomm" and run the game for a minute. Compare which plugin worked best (if it worked) and enjoy the game. Note: Nvidia games require Nvidia plugin.
23. Most of the apps are being installed in sdcard instead of internal/partition. How can i change the default app install location to internal?
- Open terminal amulator
- Type:
su (enter)
pm setInstallLocation 1 (enter)
- Done [Info: 0 (Auto), 1 (Internal), 2 (External). You can see the current state by typing "pm getInstallLocation".]
24. How to convert my sdext partition from ext3 to ext4?
- Download KMapp from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1301697
- Install it and run it. Accept the superuser permissions and press the menu button. Select "Filesystem Conversion". Scroll down and select Sdext => ext4 and click "Convert".
25. What is Mobile Tracker and how to set it up? (Highly recommended // Enabled it in case you lose your phone) (for Kyrillos rom v9.4+)
- The Samsung Galaxy 3 comes with a mobile tracker software by default which is not activated, as you need to register your phone and account with the Samsung online website. Only then the option works and your phone goes more safer, as the Mobile tracker is one of the best options to use when your phone is stolen or lost.
The Samsung Dive mobile tracker is something that helps you remotely work on your phone when it is stolen. The online website of its helps you in remotely swiping the phone and delete delete your private data. Though this service is not available in India, a few features of its work, like prompt SMS sending when the phone is used with any new SIM than that which was used to register with the mobile tracker. The app also helps in getting the location information of the phone.
- How to set it up (source):
α. Go to Applications => Settings section in the phone. Select Location and Security tab in it.
β. Scroll down in the menu in Location and Security, and you will see a section for Mobile tracker. Here you need to hit the “Set Mobile Tracker” option which will set the mobile tracker recipient and control the remote phone that is activated. It will take you through the process of registration and set-up of the mobile tracker.
γ. The first thing you need to set is the mobile tracker password which would be asked to you or anyone who changes the SIM in the phone. It has to be of 8 digits and all numeric characters in it. You need to remember this password for always, as it can get your phone locked if you forget it and type the wrong password multiple times.
δ. After you set the password, you need to add recipients to whom the phone sends an SMS from the new SIM to notify/alert them about the changes made in the phone.
ε. Set the information of the sender, i.e. the Sender name and the message to be sent to the recipient. And then agree to the terms.
στ. Login through your Samsung account, and if you have not registered to it, you can do that for free online by registering the product. And then you would be directed to the mobile tracker settings where you can change any recipient or make changes in the samsung account.
ζ. After everything is setup, go back to the Settings section, and into the Location and Security section. There you have to check the “Mobile Tracker” option, so that it is activated.
Note: If at all you have reset your phone through the factory reset option, all the information in the Mobile tracker is lost. You need to set it all over again.
- Now if you lose your phone or somebody stole it, you can track it and/or lock it and/or wipe all your private data in SamsungDive.

I flashed your version of ROM directly from DDJP2 with the hope that camera bug would go,and the facebook touchsite would open. But even your rom has the same thing. So i changed to the european version new release XWJPF. And its pretty stable an i can bet its boots alot faster than any of the custom rom or even offcial ROM.
Anyway is there any solution.
1)The camera bug. YOu cant click a photo unless you get a fix on location or disable the location settings.
2)Facebook touchsite wont open like it use to open in eclair. DDJP6. And when you open facebook it shows GT-I5510.
Please fix this.

Linux-Swap
What is SWAP?
Swap space is an auxiliary storage, such as a portion of a hard-disk, which can be used as memory by the operating system when system RAM is insufficient. This is especially useful on systems with very little system RAM, such as most DD-WRT compatible routers, as it helps prevent the system from running out of memory when multiple background processes are installed.
Swap is rarely used, and if you have a high class sd you may see more responsive phone.

So in a class 2 SD swap should not be used.
But a class 4 is OK, isn't it?

Using the non OC 4.1, b/c i had freezes with the OC version. But the normal version is ok for me.

The "gt 5510" issue is Facebook's problem, not Kyrillos's or Samsungs problem. This does not affect anything, other phones are detected falsely, too. Facebook divided phones to groups and the most ubiquotous phone is shown. This only serves for offering you the correct version of Facebook app. This is a non issue.
I never saw "the camera bug", is this present only in India?

i mean when ever i open facebook touch site the mobile site opens. And is there any solution for the camera bug???
Every time i click a photo i have to wait for a lock or have to disable the location.
My camera was working perfect on Stock eclair DDJG6. But after upgraing i am having this prblm. My camera is working perfect but if the location is enabled and if i dont have lock on my position my camera would force close if a click a photo. But if its turned off it works flawlessly. And in FROYO their isnt any option for turning off Geo-tagging.
And when i flashed kyrillos 4.1 i ddnt do any partition or anything i directly flashed it over DDJP2 by wiping cache. And i ddnt understand the procedure of the partitioning properly. I liked the ROM though.
Do you have any solution for this prblem..or a most stable ROM that doesnt have any prblm.
DDJG6>DDJP2>Kyrillos 4.1>XWJPF
tnx for thread.
I have v4.1 and i had some probs. 1st when using CoPilot and GPS. Phone was just turn off, and that happend 4 times :S. 2nd: Day before yesterday, phone just turned it self off, and i couldnt turn it on.
Everything else is OK, I have OC version and its great!
Also, can you put battery change by 1% in new version?

GPS problem flashing from Lestat 1.8 >> Kyrillos 4.1 fixed
Kryrillos,
Thanks for all these roms
Curruntly using 4.1 ultimate non OC.
4.1 OC just sometimes freezes even at 667 mhz.
Tried Lestat 1.8 alpha 14 is was very slow with reading sd card and also the phone reacts slow.
So decide to flash back to Kyrillos 4.1 non oc.
Everything works only GPS fix was not working.
After wipe cache / factory reset.
It is oke, gps fix in 30 sec or less.
can you do something about flash and 3d driver for next version ?

Facebook mobile site is supposed to open if you access Facebook trough browser. Facebook redirects you to the most appropriate version of the site for your device/browser. If you want the Facebook Touch experience, download the Facebook app - called Facebook Touch.

I have tried using facebook touch app but it redirects me to the mobile site i dont know why. Even on the official India Update DDJP2. And what about the camera bug?

[APP] SwitchMe Beta - multiple users WITH OWN DATA on a single device

SwitchMe - An Android first
Welcome to SwitchMe, an application for root users that allows you to log in and out of your device just as you would on a personal computer.
The technology behind SwitchMe saves all of your applications and data, protects it and stores it as a file in memory. You can then log out of
an account and log into a fresh installation of Android or another account with its own unique content.
You may create as many profiles as the memory is capable of holding. Some of these may require very little free memory because they contain
few apps, others will be larger as they contain many applications and lots of cache and data.
Why is this functionality useful?
Privacy - the most obvious benefit is that you can securely share one device among multiple users, which gives you privacy and peace of mind.
Testing - if you are a developer, you can use profiles as clean sandboxes to test your applications and their interaction with the system.
Speed - the games your kids play slow down your tablet, but with SwitchMe you can easily create profiles in without games or messengers.
Battery life - when the battery is low but there are important emails or documents to edit later, switch to a profile which only contains these essentials.
These of course are only suggestions - there are plenty of other uses for the functionality SwitchMe offers.
SwitchMe explained
In order to start using the application, you must create at least two profiles. The first you create will contain all your current data, the second will be a
fresh installation of the operating system.
Once you have created a second profile and booted into it, you will be presented with the Welcome screen, where you can add a new Google Account.
After you have set up your wireless connection and logged into the Google Account, you will find that SwitchMe comes preinstalled so that you can switch
back to the original account without needing to access the Market.
Advanced users can also clone their current profile - this can be useful if, for example, you want to see how the installation or removal of an application
affects your device.
Recommended usage
The most basic use for SwitchMe is creating multiple profiles for your family members. To do this, create separate profiles for yourself, for your significant
other and for the kids. Then log into these profiles and install the relevant software.
For your wife, for example, you can set up an email account and create bookmarks and widgets. For the kids, download and install some games.
From now on, handing your device over without worrying about them reading your emails or installing lots of junk is as simple as switching profiles.
Usage warning
Its very important to understand that incorrect use of this application can potentially harm your device. This can happen if you create and switch to
a profile that exceeds the available memory - switching into this profile will cause a boot loop as Android attempts to unsuccessfully build the Dalvik cache.
Before proceeding the use we recommend that you perform a full nandroid backup through recovery.
Looking forward
These are early days for SwitchMe, which means that a lot of additional functionality will be added to the app in the months to come. Planned features
include full profile encryption, profile storage on external memory and switching without the need to reboot your device.
We also plan to expand the information window to include data about each profile's applications, as well as the ability to reserve memory for profiles.
This Beta
The apk attached to this post will expire in 24 hours. Use that time to tell us if there are issues and to send logs (as always, with descriptions) via the
"Write to us" function.
Lots of functionality has been removed from this version, but will be added over the coming days.
Screens:
Known issues
Help doesnt work outside main screen
Persistent notification doesnt enable in new profiles
Hot switch not working on ICS (almost fixed, currently unavailable)
Encryption doesnt work (only password protection atm)
Sweet! Going to try it.
This allows me to have multiple chars on 1 device for games also? (like Emross War or the Storm8 games?)
edit: Sended my first crash log allready
Yes. I see there is an issue with the trial...
This is a brilliant idea! If you can add a feature to disable su for accounts it would be great.
For my use, I would probably have a default account that has limited access and limited apps. It should not have su or the ability to install new apps via the Market or via adb. The second account would be an admin account with everything enabled. I'm very interested in the encryption features as well. This and a password protected bootloader combined will keep my phone pretty locked down
Hi guys. Sorry I'm on a tablet ATM, so you'll have to use this filehost link for the next few hours. The apk has been updated:
http://www.datafilehost.com/download-beac0342.html
Okay this is what I've seen so far:
At first launch it asks me to create a profile, works fine.
When pressing the lock icon in the top right-hand corner it crashes.
The 3 dots open the settings page, and the notification icon works fine.
I can't seem to figure out how to create a 2nd profile?
When opening my profile I don't see any data in there, it just says "Details" in the top left-hand corner. It has the 3 dot setting icon thing, when I press settings, nothing happens. When I press the lock icon it crashes.
To view the details of my profile I have to hold-press on my profile in the main screen and then select details. Now I see some bars and I can put a password on my profile with the lock icon, settings still don't work. After you've done this, you don't have to press details anymore unless you restart the application. By pressing the activate button when I long-press on my profile it also allows me to see the details when I click on my profile.
A lot has to be done, but the concept is there, good job!!

General Ways To Open Chrome (or File Explorer) from Settings (Android FRP)

Hello, this is my first post here. I've used the info on these forums many times through for years and love you guys. If this is in the wrong sub-forum I apologize. I've removed FRP from dozens of phones & tablets in a multitude of ways but I am far far far from being an expert. (A bad memory doesn't help, I forget methods in a use-it-or-lose-it type of way.) I also apologize if I am not pithy!
Anyway, the point of this thread. A situation happens fairly often where I can access Settings, but then I am stuck. Usually on a device that is too new and/or unique to have a specific tutorial for it online. I remember from various tutorials there being a handful of methods for once access to Settings is achieved. I hope we can make a list of them here.
Once I have access to Chrome and/or File Explorer I know how to load various apks (GAM and FRP Bypass / Gmail Browser Login or QuickShortcutMaker if need be). So this thread is not for those things that occur later in the FRP removal process.
I do have a tablet I am stuck in this situation now, which made me think of making this thread, and I will list the details below. But I would like this thread to have various methods for opening Chrome or File Explorer from Settings even if they don't apply to the situation below. Especially considering many of the normal methods have the user opening the web browser and then just typing Chrome into search to access Chrome.
I'll start off with a couple:
Open any link
You should be able to find a link in a multitude of places in Settings. Then in the default browser that opens type Chrome into the search to access Chrome.
Users > Guest
This will often load the desktop, which will let you just select Chrome or File Explorer.
Apps > Data Usage > Application Settings
Usually Application Settings is not highlighted (not selectable). I'm not sure if I even remember successfully opening Chrome via this method, though this can sometimes let you open some apps like Gmail or Maps.
Any other general and/or novel ideas on how to access files once in Settings would be appreciated!

RCA Voyager Pro
Android Version 6.0
Android Security patch level June 1, 2016
Kernel version 3.18.22 Aug 19, 2016
I had 3 cheapo RCA Voyager tablets to do, the first two were easy, but this Pro is being a problem. And here is why. Any web link I find opens up in a very restricted, no-feature, pop-up window browser. It does not let me do the normal search > Chrome to access chrome. And, what is worse, this browser does not allow access to download links.
I am in Settings. (Accessed via Highlight characters in a wifi field > Share > Gmail (Hold) > Data Usage > App Settings > Manage Accounts)
I have tried the Users > Guest > Guest trick. It doesn't work (it switches back to Owner almost immediately). Users > Owner just lets you change the User Name. Users > Add User or Profile both also just switch back to Owner upon loading.
Any ideas would be awesome.
Argh, I'm dumb! I completely missed a very obvious vector. (My memory is so bad; I had just used this method several months ago and completely forgot.)
File Explorer
Storage & USB > SD Card
