Why is this ROM "taking CyanogenMod to the next level?
CyanogenMod does not want to include many customizations like they did in cm7
But why not? We want to customize our phones!
This ROM adds more options and cherries to CyanogenMod, cherry picked from the CM gerrit, Google gerrit, AOKP gerrit, SGT7, TeamEOS, TeamBAKED, Slim ROM, Root-Box, ChameleonOS, and ParanoidAndroid
Basically this is one big mixture of all the great ROMs out here!
Stock but still highly customizable the way we like it
Features:
KatKernel
Gcc 4.7 Linaro
AOKP Riboons
Built in Gestures
Side Bar from ChameleonOS
Dark Domination thanks to Slim
and More go ahead and get Dominated!!!

Settings Menu - When in settings if you go into a sub menu, instead of hitting the back button, swipe from the left of the screen to get your settings menu back.

lol sorry dude.
bug report.:
1. when you go to Asusec to change layout the screen comes up blank - you have to touch the blank area to show the list of language layout options.
2. the back/return key is working double time.....doesnt seem to like just going back one stage. ie - enter a sub menu in "settings" for example, hit return, it generally takes you back to the app drawer rather than the main settings list.
3. Backing out of Hybrid options take you to wifi settings
nothing of any real substance, but nit picking is always helpful for polishing
will report any more as i go.

Don't be sorry, you made me realize I should reserve a spot
1. I will look into the Asusec, i'm guessing that has to do with dock support and not having a dock, I may need to get some help with that one.
2. the back key is fine, in settings when you tap on something like wifi, the settings nav menu dissapears, to get back to it simply swipe from the left
3. It works like that on my phone as well, just a quirk of the ROM, if you swipe from the left, the settings nav menu will pop up.

sounds promising, I`ll try it tommorow

Some screenshots would be very interesting. Looking forward to see them...

So far so good with this bad boy....... almost 16hours on the dock battery (obviously not continuous use) but cant take a screen shot with the screen shot key on the dock as special keys only partly work (volume controls).
Havent found anything to report from my useage needs but what i will say is that it performs really well :good:
Good job its well worth flashing!

I was hoping goo.im would get back to me sooner, updated with dev-host links, enjoy :highfive:

Using this Rom for a day now. I though my poor tablet was starting to cash out with speed issues but this rom gave me new hope. Works great and runs fine. The main issue I see is when using the tabletui the original status bar area has no tap (click?) Passing through. I'm using nova launcher and I have a hard time hitting the menu and app drawer buttons.
Sent from my Transformer using xda premium.

GOD! Please bring the default settings app view, this thing with the sliding has no sense.
And I could not enablet the pie (but I`m stuped so may be that explains alot ).
Another thing is that in all tablet UI mods the navigation bar and the notifications are combined in one row, and like to use my tablet as shown in the screenshot, so it isn`t possible to do it in that stage.
But the rom it self is smooth, fast and ofers much custamization!!! But somehow it is bizzare with it`s strange settings app. I didn`t like the changes in the app store in the offerd gapps link, but I believe it is easy to change by every average user.

Wow! This Rom is pretty awesome. Bootanimation rocks and all customizacion you did is really good. Only just issues, one of them really annoying.
1.- Launcher, whatever it be (Apex, Default launcher) are not smooth at all. They are really laggy when I swipe between diferent screens and sometimes when I swipe down notiifcacion bar. Is the same than happen in Paranoid Unofficial Rom TF101, but not in Team EOS 4
2.- Tapbar (I dont remember know the exactly name of this option, just on the right side of Ribbons) just allow me to put it on the left side, even thoug I select right. I really appreciate this option because we can Install different apps that seems like this, but they are not integrated on the system, so usually make the launcher even slower.
Apps such as Google Plus or Youtube dont seem smooth, at least like in Team EOS. I dont know how to solve this lag, but I appreciate your work trying to make our Transformer a little bit better.
Thanks man!

Mostly what I did was make this ROM work with our device, most of the changes were made by others. I personally love the way the settings work now that I'm used to it.
To enable pie on the right side, make sure you have the right ribbon turned off or it may interfere with the pie, go to the power menu in settings and set expanded desktop to visible, set up pie how you want, press the power button until the reboot menu comes up and enable pie.
You can use other gaaps, but this one toggles to the darker theme.

Did you do a factory reset before running this? Might be some of your lag issues, pretty smoothe for me...
Instead of appbar, I use the ribbons, if you look at the top of the ribbons menu you should be able to select different ones, it defaults to the lock screen ribbon, so tap on that, select the right ribbon and turn it on, the appbar is still being worked on a bit by somebody and should probably be removed.

Interesting. I will play with it and see if I can replicate it. I only use the built in launcher though, so it could have to do with outside launchers.

[NEW] Buglist for XXUBMEA I9500

1.Overheating
Improved quite a lot after the update but the issue is still here. I personally think that there is not a lot we can do through firmware updates with regards to the overheating issue other than underclocking and undervolting. So its basically hardware related as my battery performance is great.
2.Launcher redraw is almost gone but I still see it occasionally coupled with a black home screen and the homescreen wallpaper suddenly shows up. The weather widget also disappears sometimes.
3. Screen smearing issue.
To be honest, I think that this is fully hardware related and there is no fix for this issue other than the workaround that involves keeping the LEDs turned on even at black screen, like it was on the S3
4. Gallery lag when opening.
This seriously needs to be fixed. It is such a shame that the gallery app doesn't start instantly considering how even the older generation phones can do it easily.
5. Dialer lag (All famous)
6. Contact app lag
I doubt Samsung will ever fix this dialer and contact app lag. It is almost like they want the apps to lag. When these apps are not in ram, they take a lot of time to open up. Shame on Samsung! Adding features after features but still can't make your basic app to open smoothly. Even an iPhone 3G does better.
7. Ocassional Animation stutter when opening and closing apps.
Its not very noticeable now and happens a lot less frequently than before. Specially when the transition animation is set to 0.5. Maybe I am nitpicking but the issue is still there when you look for it.
Whoever gets any of these issues please keep confirming or adding any more issues I missed. All these issues are currently present in alot of brand new s4 units worldwide.
Sent from a poor GT-I9500 whose software doesn't do its hardware any justice.

1. It's just like any other high-end phone after MEA update. Nothing wrong with the heating.
2. Never seen launcher redraw, only seen the weather widget redraw.
3. Yes, it's hardware related. The screen isn't quick enough in turning on pixels.
4. Are you talking about the 1 second it takes the gallery to open? You prefer to see the picture loading when you in the gallery or wait a second? I prefer how it works now
Much better than the iPhone that sometimes even don't shows the pictures after a long time of waiting...
5. I kinda love it And seriously, once it's cached it's instant opened.
6. Same as 5.
You talk about iOS smooth? You probably never used WP8, it's NEVER lower than 60FPS.
7. Nope, not presented here.

I found in the gallery there is a setting called "Tag Buddy". Turn this off, and it makes things even quicker. I agree with the above, all working good :good:

[REVIEW] 4.2.2 for Galaxy S II Plus

The official Galaxy S II Plus update landed today, as the first official 4.2.2 update for a Samsung Galaxy device. I quickly flashed it using Odin and here I will review it with screenshots and benchmarks.
Remember, after flashing the firmware you will need to wipe your device, otherwise crashes will start appearing every few seconds.
CAUTION: Flashing this firmware in the non-NFC version (I9105) will cause your device a hard brick, do NOT do it.
First thing you'll notice is the new lockscreen, which includes an update Ripple Effect and the new Light Effect that comes with the S4 (you can choose either of them as your default effect). There are also the lockscreen widgets that is a standard feature of 4.2.2, you can also disable or enable these. Also, you can set the lockscreen to contain a custom message such as 'Life Companion'. Lockscreen shortcuts are disabled by default but it is also possible to enable them from the Lock Screen Settings.

}
The homescreen sports a new weather widget as well as a clock widget, and the app drawer has seen some redesigning. The status bar is now transparent around Touchwiz and there is a quick toggles button in the notification panel, you can also access the quick toggles by swiping down the status bar with two fingers.
The settings app also sees the changes seen in the Galaxy S4 with the new tabbed design, and the gallery app has also undergone some changes. Also, you can now easily move most (not all) of your apps to your SD card, leaving you with quite a lot of space if you're using a large-capacity microSD card.
Performance seems to have improved as well, on 4.1.2 you'd get around 7700-7800 on Antutu Benchmarks, after updating, the score ranges around the 10000 mark. This is also notable in real-life performance as the device now seems snapper than before.
​

awesome thx for the fast preview - dwonloading

Digging in a bit further, there seems to be a new "Move apps to SD" feature built in the phone's Application Manger in the Settings menu.
It works pretty well.

Thanks for the dibs, mate.
How's the battery life like so far?

It has been 7h10m (now at 20%) since I disconnected it from the charger last time, I can't recall if I fully recharged it or not.
But the battery life seams outstanding, judging by the fact that the screen is sucking 53% of the battery, and the Android OS and Android System processes are taking 8% and 5% respectively.

my dirty flash is laggin like hell, many fcs too..
t-mobile branding is gone...:good:

Rooting android 4.2.2 samsung galaxy s2 i9105 plus
Hi my friends, i tested today the new rom 4.2.2 in my samsung galaxy s2 gt-i9105 plus, and as a lot of new options, it is great, the unique thing that i couldnt do is rooting the device as i could in version of android 4.1.1, does any one knows why ? or someone knows the solutions ?
thanks very much
Nuno

Also, if you're going to move apps to SD card, better have an SD card with fast read speeds, or else the app is going to take a longer time than usual to load.

Any remarks regarding memory managment?
I can see some differences in gallery... how it works now?

Wonderful. Though I bought Folder Mount app for $2 it's good to see finally moving apps is supported and a better battery life !

Slight regression:
Several stock apps (among them: Memo, S Planner, stock Music and Video player) can no longer be deactivated without root. So you can no longer get completely rid of Samsung apps if you prefer the Google versions. At least the battery hogging media share services can still be deactivated though.

Another regression i noticed is that the minimum media volume is quite a bit higher than before. Sucks when you're listening with headphones in bed. Additionally when you start and stop listening there is a crackling noise. I really liked this phone because it was perfect for this use case
Is there any way to correct this via a service menu?

Hello everyone,
I received an update message on my GT9105p device today. I accepted to do the update, then i let the phone to do its job. after a while, i noticed that the phone is stucked on the booting screen where the Samsung logo is shown.

Good day,
I did the update via Odin, but there is one thing different from the review done in the first post (two actually). I do not see the new wallpapers AND I do not have the ability to set shortcuts on lockscreen's homepage like in the screenshot. I just don't have an option "Shortcuts.." in the lockscreen options. Don't know if it's right or if it's wrong. Before flashing I factory resetted the device.

[APP][4.0+][v3.1]Quick Control Panel - SOURCE CODE AVAILABLE!

Upon the time a long ago
I had iPhone - of number four
A great device - you might have said,
But only anger mine was great.
Some toggles, widget, something? Where?
No, no, my boy, I'll be sincere
You don't need those, my boy, nowhere.
But then one thing suprised my mind
The music controls - little diamond!
And shortly after I've been hit
With the idea in forehead
"I'll make those controls, but not here.
Android phone - it will be great!"
So then Eclipse IDE I took
To look like real Java cook.
And then I coded very hard
And then this story calmly start...​
CURRENT VERSION: 3.1
You've definetely seen Control Center apps in Google Play. There is no doubt they are handy. Control your music, toggle some Wi-Fi like a boss...and that's from anywhere! Isn't it great?
"YAWN BUT I HAVE STATUSBAR".
Great, my friend, really great answer! But...Statusbar is:
a) On top of your phone, which can be a real pain in the afingers, if you have some modern phone with gargantuan 5inch display.
b) It can be unavailable in some apps.
c) Not every manufacturer puts some neat controls in your statusbar. And not all people love to see notification toggles as a separate notification.
So, if one of those three reasons are about you, then you have to try one of those Control Centers. But there is another problem.
THEY ARE ALL TRYING TO MIMICK iOS!
I mean, seriously?
I've bought my Android Phone because that's ANDROID! I don't want to have app that copies iOS interface!
So...here is where I step in. Or, more correctly, where my app steps in.
Quick Control Panel. It has the same idea as all of those Control Centers, but it's a different story.
I've designed it to be Android way. What does it mean?
Well...here is "what does it mean".
-It's Holo style.
-It's customizability.
-It means everything is working correctly.
What about customizability?
Well...you don't want to see music controls, but you want to see toggles? Fine, just disable music controls.
You want the opposite? Just do it, open the settings and change it.
You want different animation? Go on, select one that's suitable for you.
You want to swipe left to open app? Come on, you can do it.
You want to have your dock with flashy semi-transparent colors? Go on, you can choose your favourite color for everything.
You want to reorder your toggles? That's a piece of cake.
Want to have a brutal rectangle around your toggle icons, or want a clean icon without a border? Do it!
You want custom shortcuts icons? Just go and pick up photo of yourself for your favourite awesome app, because you are using this app, and all the people who use this app are awesome!
What about correct work?
Well, it's easy. If you see something on the screen - then it works.
Music controls? They work, they even show you your music artist and song title! That's because it acts the same as default Android lockscreen.
Want to toggle your Wi-Fi, data, sound mode? Do it!
Want to change brightness? Do it!
And about "control from everywhere". You can swipe to start this app, or you can just call it the same way you call Google Now. This is incredibly convenient when you're playing your favourite game with player on, and your the least favourite song kicks in(we all have the song which we don't really like but somehow keep them in our playlist). What do you do? Close your game, which will most likely result in lost progress? NO! You just open Quick Control Panel like a boss, and switch the song!
So, what are you waiting for? Ah, screenshots! Of course! Here are some:

If I actually did help, how bout a Thanks

I like the idea, but 4.3 version just FCs on nightly 809 CM10.2 build. I tried disabling everything except music player control and it's still a no go.

Nicely made app, works very well...just not my cuppa tea.
Good job :cyclops:

Still hangs, but I didn't think an app would make it hang at the Samsung logo. I am starting to think it's the ROM not your app. Has anybody else have success running it on 4.3?

Wait. It hangs on Samsung logo? That's crazy. I thought that maybe Swipe Detector somehow kills it, because it starts on bootup, but now...I can't understand, really.

A possible cause of heavy lag

Developing few themes I've found out what is one possible cause of the heavy lag (and with that I mean the phone gets unusable. Seconds without reactions) I can get since when I upgraded to Lollipop. In a simple word: themes.
That's 100% certified, I tested and retested it again. In more specific details at least in my case i discovered that if the Navigation bar button for exchanging keyboard isn't properly sized - and it will hardly be since the Sony Theme Creator is messy with those particular icons - the skinner may go banana.
There are other bugs as well (try to install the same theme over the current theme), but the one above is probably the most nasty. The obvious workaround is to apply a different theme (the plain, boring stock ones don't define any asset) and maybe reboot, but if you want to see a bit more in detail if something is wrong with your current theme do the following (requires root):
- Download the Theme Debugger
- Check the size of the keyboard button in the bottom right like in those picture (left is ok, right - which is a stock theme - is an example of things going wrong) :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
- Open Theme Debugger
- Click on the top left menu (3 dots) and choose "Restart System UI"
Now check the size of the keyboard button again. If it changes in size, like if it is too small or too big or if the landscape and portrait version do not match (they get stretched in one direction or the other) you most likely have the issue. Inform the theme developer (with a couple of screenshots) and on the meantime use a different theme. Oh, don't blame the developer, it's the skinner to be effed up.
I hope this helps!

or... You can discover that you have a crappy app called ROM ToolBox Pro which hasn't been updated in a year and with Lollipop it went banana and set the at boot the minfree values to a ridiculously low value. The ugly thing is that there is a sort of "bug" with the minfree in Lollipop (at least with the SnapDragon 400, the Moto G has the same issue), the file
Code:
/sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree
is write only (permissions "--w--w----" instead of -rw-r---r--") so the app above couldn't read the minfree values but it did write them (discovered enabling the full log in SuperSU).
Still the thing about the themes partially applies. With low minfree values the skinner did crash in the situation mentioned. Also if one updates the active theme (as in installs a new version over it) after the reboot the theme has gone (but it shows as if it was selected). Hopefully we'll get an update fixing all these little annoying issues (plus the GPS and camera fixes, sure).

Can i set rwrr for minfree?

Click to expand...

Sure, you can play with the minfree as much as you like. They are volatile files, they get recreated after each reboot (so if it gets stuck just restart the phone). Which also means that if you want to make any modification permanent you should add it in a /etc/init.d script.

Apparently I fixed once for all the lag that has been infesting my phone for months. Other than the couple of things I already mentioned (and yes, the wrong minfree was simply a nightmare), what made it more constantly fluid now has been the following: In settings do:
Settings > Apps > All > Google Play Store, Clear data and Clear cache
Settings > Apps > All > Google Play Services > Manage space, Clear all data and Clear cache
I used that as a suggestion for installing FaceBook returning error 504 (but I've found out that what really fixed the FB installation was to uninstall FB Messenger. What a piece of junk) and no, it isn't placebo effect, I waited few days to be sure. Also apparently the 787 Mhz went from a 50-50 with the 1190Mhz to a 70-30.
Oh well, I just thought could be useful to share!

Hi !
In Lollipop When the brightness is more than 25% phone starts lagging
When the phone is connected to a charger or computer is not Lag phone!
I got Repair Pc companion! But the phone's lag !
This problem can be solved???

It depends on what you define as lag at this point. If you followed this thread you see that it took me months to get a rid of the lag on my phone. Yet if after repairing the phone with PC Companion it's still lagging, either your phone is damaged or you're too much lag sensitive.

Your phone does not lag?
Rom Which region?

I am quite sure the ROM has nothing to do with it. Still I'm using the Custom IT version, which is the one of my phone.
But if after a repair with PC Companion, no apps, no data your phone really lags most likely you have an HW issue. Try to see if taking out the SIM and SD cards it still lags. If the phone really lags changing the brightness it may be damaged.
Then if your lag is just some nearly imperceptible micro stuttering.. deal with it. That can be normal.

I just tried to be on the phone while brightness is on 100%, and I must say it is lagging for me too.
It is not some brutal lag or idk, but it is noticeable.
Check the recording:
2016_01_24_15_30_00.mp4
As seen it is not something major, but it can be noticed lol.

The problem is that the video on my laptop lags by itself, it fries the CPU. I tried to watch it on PS3 and on my television and the codecs aren't recognized. You need a better screen recorder.
Still even with the lag induced by the player it didn't seem that bad, the apps were opening quite fast. Then it's an Xperia M2, we can't expect the performances of an Xperia Z5 (and let's forget an iPhone 6S ). Also you had to show the difference with brightness at zero to compare.
In any case, when I wrote heavy lag I meant that with the wrong minfree values I was waiting even a minute to open certain apps. That was absurd indeed. Fixed that I still had some lag, like when unlocking the screen. The sequence was jumping. Or the keyboard could take ages to load (it still does it sometimes, but not that bad). Clearing the Google Play Service data fixed that as well. But the micro stuttering when scrolling has been there since ever, KitKat included. No matter the brightness, at least on my phone. I just triple checked it now, maybe it's an optical effect. Being higher the brightness the lags gets more more evident, I don't know
Yeah, I am checking it again with brightness zero. Scrolling the home drawer's panels it micro stutters. I'm so used to it that I don't even consider it lag. Well, at least that's me.

Actually I have the same question. I've checked a bit around few days ago and in Google Play they are all getting not excellent reviews. At least the ones I've seen. Which is annoying becauseI've read the Z3 (and above, I suppose) has one made by Sony, integrated in the ROM (it was for KitKat, not sure if it went to Lollipop as well). So if you ever find a good one. please let me know.

Here check this out: https://youtu.be/j5WYd28rhi4
I installed the highest rated app "Telecine" and I must say I have never recorded a smoother video of my phone.
It was smoother than the actuall use xD
But it kinda lacks some features, like saving location etc.
Anyways here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jakewharton.telecine :good:
EDIT: After testing a few apps, I am thinking between AZ Screen Recorder (which I used before, and after enabling 60fps in settings recording is smooth as in Telecine) and Telecine.
AZ Screen Recorder is packed with all features, but I need to do some more testing. Here: https://youtu.be/64xyaASGO9M - This is a recording with default resolution and 60fps. It is smooth, really smooth.
And this is a recording in 720p, also 60fps: https://youtu.be/t_XS3ZZFZkE - Tell me if there is some difference, because I dont see it.
Altough, Telecine is simple as f***, it lacks some features.
So check those two of course.

@junk031 we are vastly off topic, but whatever...
So I checked the two video players. Telecine is quite limited and then it started crashing. I removed it immediately. AZ Recorder seems good. I liked the option to change the audio track. Too bad that it doesn't work. Unless it doesn't like my AAC format. But it did play it on the preview (just the audio).
Anyway, the most important thing is that I can play the recorded videos from my laptop without it frying. So I can do any editing from it. As I always do anyway, I hate to operate from the phone!!

Yeah the AZ Recorder is doing really nice, but something about that audio isnt right, when I was uploading on YouTube it said that the audio codec is not recognized idk.
