[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rabidaries:
So here's the situation and this is literally the 3RD time this phone has done this. I'll be on a ROM on my rooted unlocked galaxy nexus, and randomly I'll be opening my texts or contacts or something and my phone will reboot. No big deal right? But then it just boot loops. Endlessly. If I try to restore a nandroid from a different ROM, it'll get almost done then won't be able to restore /data. I know it's not a bad nandroid backup cuz I switch back and forth between them all the time. I can't flash any rom, it'll be a boot loop, can't restore a nandroid,so I always have to end up flashing a stock image and start from scratch again.

I've seen this problem before after it happened the first time and found that flashing stock img fix. I have two questions: Why does it do this randomly every month? It's like my bootloader goes MIA or something for no reason. What would cause it to do this and literally, almost once every 30 days?

Second question: Is this a stable phone? I'm coming from the nearly unbrickable Captivate and I've done some crazy stuff to that phone and always managed to recover it, a couple times when it shouldn't have even worked at all. But yet this thing breaks down almost every month. Didn't flash anything new, didn't flash anything incompatible, nothing. Everything was running smooth. Then all of a sudden reboot, boot loop, backups dead, roms on SD card are useless.

Can someone please fill me in on what's going on with this? lol this is my 5th rooted android phone, not a developer or a themer or anything, but I know quite a bit about what would cause a phone to do whatever. Any insight would be great. Thanks guys!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msedek:
Wich roms are you trying? Wich rooting methods? Wich flashing method? Are you using adb and fastboot?

Edit: does the issue happens on stock?

So far my phone its rock solid stable and buttery smooth fast after 3/4 months

Galaxy Nexus AOKP m5 Franco kernel m3
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rabidaries:
It first happened on liquid rom. I rooted via Samsung gnex toolkit. It happened again on gummy 1.2.0 honestly I wasn't on stock long enough to see how stock ran lol I don't use adb or fastboot often. Just to root and recently, to flash a stock image every time this happens
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
I'd try rooting properly by using fast boot and flashing a superuser.zip. It may be that the toolkit is not working properly and you have a bad recovery. Something is wrong if this is happening. Its not too hard...
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] madelgijs:
Phiexz Kernel 3.1

Sounds interesting as I'm looking for a modified, solid stock rom. Could you possibly include the most recent Phiexz-Kernel? He updated to V. 3.1

Thanks! madelgijs
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] SpaceCaker:
=,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] coccolino_dbro:
Madelgijs, I tried 3.1, but unfortunately, does not work on stock rom; looking into the zip, there are no kernel modules present, no wifi drivers... maybe he forgot them and that's why it doesn't work.

I used the smali files responsible for the screenshot function from a cyanogen rom, called from a new option in the menu (copied one of the existing option with a few edits).
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] madelgijs:
Ah. I see. That explains a lot. I gave the new kernel a quick try last night and it didn't boot, but I thought it was due to me being tired late in the night.

madelgijs
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] SpaceCaker:
Thanks

Btw can you add links yo the original sources of most stuff ? Mighht be helpfull lol
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] razer.93:
Does it include italian language? I'm very interested

Inviato dal mio GT-S5660 con Tapatalk 2
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
european roms always include italian, don't worry about that..

only firmwares for countries outside europe problably don't have italian, like the asian firmware..

some questions about the rom:

why RFS? ext4 is better..

why ODIN? flashable zips are easier to use, modify..

you used the swipe to remove from ace or did it yourself, cuz I use the one from ace but its a bit buggy, is yours too?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] razer.93:
Thx... just another question... can i use a2sd with phiexz kernel on thos rom with ext4?

Inviato dal mio GT-S5660 con Tapatalk 2
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
kernel should support it..
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] coccolino_dbro:
Most complex mods are put together by bits and pieces from various posts (like swype to remove, original tutorial wasn't working as is, and some edits were required; or original 14 toggles included flashlight - not working on Gio, so I modified it for wifi hotspot instead). I'll dig through my bookmarks though to post some links...or maybe provide the edited files with modifications highlighted?

Yes.

RFS is just a starting point...wanted to have the rom completely bugless before moving to more advanced things. Ext4 and flashable zip are in project.

For swype to remove notification see above...ported using different sources, no bugs whatsoever with it.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
see above? I don't see sources.. ?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] razer.93:
Coccolido do you know something about a2sd support?

Inviato dal mio GT-S5660 con Tapatalk 2
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] coccolino_dbro:
I meant see this:

razer.93, I'm using link2sd so I don't know if a2sd works good; but it should be supported, if implemented properly.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
ah ok, I see...

I tried the tutorial for it, but that doesn't make any sense, its not working :(

now using it from ace, but now as good as it is on cm7, is yours?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] coccolino_dbro:
It's almost as good, sensitivity is ok.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] razer.93:

o like this rom. Thanks. How about battery life?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] SpaceCaker:
Now i know why my statusbars dissapears when i tried to build swipe to remove xd
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] coccolino_dbro:
Unfortunately I have no idea... how do you change the timeout? In display settings or using the notification panel button? Maybe that's what making the difference, although on my phone works fine either way...

UOT kitchen should work, just need to upload the required files (framework-res.apk, SystemUI.apk and twframework-res.apk).
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] emutnyeh:
Update plz...hahaha
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] itwasgood:
already try both method. but still my screen timeout back to 30seconds.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

solved. cosmos app that cause screentimeout automatically change to 30seconds
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] EvilKing009:
please add arabic languages in this rom because i really want this rom in arabic.does it possible?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] RazOne:
No. I think it's not possible because this rom is based on an european 2.3.6 firmware for nordic countries
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] itwasgood:
can someone teach me how to use link2sd properly?

i already installed it. but now my internal memory only 7.7MB left. i don't know what happen.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] amst3l:
Talkback is giving me error's. I use swiftkey x. but yesterday Talkback keeps getting force closed ( although i didn't enabled it ). So i went to settings and it was enabled for some reason. Also enabling it gives me force close.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Majkio:
Despite the fact that installing applications on the SD card is always something in the phone

Perhaps this is why you have so little free memory
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] itwasgood:
Just realize. My trouble comes after i'm playing tower defense. At first it's quite good played on my gio. But after 10level it becomes laggy. And then my internal memory only 7.7mb left.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Majkio:
This means that the game saves the state of internal memory

But I could be wrong because I do not play :)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Thatgrass:
It's possible: Open framework-res.pka and add arabic strings ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] NirVas-:
i there, i saw few posts back that you added extra languages to the samy xt9 keyboard, i opened the file and saw that Portuguese is not added, is there anyway you can add PT language to the sammy keyboard or even to swype keyboard?

my girl is really wanting it.

oh btw, awesome rom m8, she loves it.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] coccolino_dbro:
Talkback sometimes keeps force closing even on unmodded roms...you can remove it from system folder without problems if you don't use it.

My guess is that the game is saving some data, maybe some kind of cache, on phone memory.

That will work, but for a full localised user experience he would have to add his language strings to most applications in /system/app too.

Ok, I will add all languages I can find in Samsung keyboard, as it is quite easy (but will use some space from /system partition)

As for Swype, unfortunately, we are not allowed to distribute modified versions or even distribute the unmodified apk by itself. We can only distribute swype only in ROMs that include it by default. Read more about this here http://www.xda-developers.com/android/official-stance-from-swype-inc-regarding-its-distribution/. However, you can download a Portuguese ROM from sammobile, and extract Swype yourself.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] dominatore22:
there are some problems for this rom... superuser is slow and sometimes dont give permissions.. some apos are crashing when open and wifi sometimes turn off and imnediatly on automatic.. and apps are force closing when they are using average ram :( for me its impossible to play games like fruit ninja.. its very laggy
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
Try using latest superuser.

There was a bug on "slow devices" not able to update su binairy.

Update app first, than binary
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] dominatore22:
made it but apps and wifi are stll force closing :(
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] bgm92:
I'm wondering why that's happening only on your Gio......
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] dikasatrio:
i've been using this rom for a week and it's bugfree as advertised

1) can i delete system app(s)? i once deleted talkback (crappy force close) and get process error. i reflashed and did nothing to it and things went good

2) is it compatible with tweaks? i only use adrenaline engine since it is the only one confirmed to be working with this rom

3) actually, i'm the guy itwasgood refer as the UOT kitchen user. i finally made it but the change is only partial. it change the battery color but not the clock and date in the status bar.

thanks,

a thankful user
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] amst3l:
anyone else problems with mobile data? I got no connection so many times, very annoying but reboot usually resolves it!

Update:

Also bug: not able to turn mobile data off in the drop down menu, when you go to settings you can disable it
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] bgm92:
I don't have any problems :)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] dikasatrio:
i don't have such problems.. mobile data toggle-ing went perfect
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] phayz:
This ROM is very good because it delivers exactly what is stated "on the box". Congratulations on some great mods to an already very stable ROM. :good:

I'd like to tweak some things and I wonder if it's possible to achieve what I want:

(1) instead of the battery bar, I'd like to have the battery indicator show the percentage of charge;

(2) I'd like to have a toggle item which can activate the lock screen. I have enabled the "Lock Screen" toggle but it appears that this enables or disables the timed lock screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] coccolino_dbro:
You can delete system apps, but make sure you aren't deleting something essential. When receiving errors and force closes usually a logcat can help in pinpointing the cause.

It should be compatible with most tweaks/scripts as it doesn't include any. There is just a zipaligning on boot script present in init.d.

How were the clock and date supposed to look after using UOT (I don't know what clock/date themeing options UOT has)?

I don't have either one of these problems. You could try finding the exact CSC files for your country and operator and use those instead of the ones provided.

Point 1 could be an installation option in next release; the bar willbe kept, as it is optional anyway. As for the second, if what you mean is to add a button in notification area to instantly lock the screen, it's not doable, due to the way those notification toggles work.

Small update added in first post, in Update & Addons section!​

​
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] phayz:
Regarding the bar, I understand. I thought that changing the location of the bar might be possible after installing the ROM but that doesn't matter much.

Regarding the notification toggle, again that's not a problem. I just thought I'd ask in case it *was* possible.

Thanks again for your work on this!
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] dikasatrio:
thanks :good:

and for the UOT, it looks like this

i dunno, maybe i made a mistake :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] belyava:
Well, I don't quite get what these backlight tweaks are for. If they are supposed to turn the backlight off and add haptic feedback, then they don't work for me. Anyway thanx for the update.

I have a request - can u remove the samy's feature to turn the screen low, when battery goes under 10%. It can be done by changing services.jar, i found one, but it's for russian 2.3.6 and it doesn't fit (phone, gmail and brm.bluetooth constantly FC)

TIA
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] amst3l:
for the one's that don't have problems with the mobile data toggle, which kernel do u use?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] belyava:
Phiexz's, from 6.06
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] dikasatrio:
i use phiexz's kernel, if you refer the question to me
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] coccolino_dbro:
Have you granted root acces when requested by those options? They don't work without root. Oh, and maybe you haven't noticed, they are not for display backlight/haptic feedback, but for touch keys.

If you can provide the services.jar you found, I could take a look and try to implement the feature.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] belyava:
It didn't ask for root o_0 reinstalled manually and via CWM - same result. And, yes, i understand that it's for the softkeys, not the touchscreen. As i understand, it's working for everybody else, does it?

Attached a flashable zip with the needed services.jar

TIA
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] belyava:
A question i forgot about last time :D

Downloaded Spare parts, changed font size, but it's back to default after reboot. Can it somehow be solved?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Pancakes_Gio:
Is this wonderful rom still updating?:D

Sent From My Galaxy S II Mini, Problem?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] amst3l:
Maybe thats the issue, i don't use the phiexz kernel. So my last question:P can i just revert to the phiexz kernel without losing all my apps etc?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
yes you can
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] amst3l:
Alright thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
Install the kernel from phiexz.com

Dont try to re install the rom ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] amst3l:
Alright thanks, site is offline now but when it gets back up i will try it. Also how can i remove the talkback app, i went to sys/apps and found the apk but i can't remove it with IO filemanager?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
Somehow IO manager can show system files without root, but you cant edit anything of this.

Use titanium backup or root explorer, IO doesnt have root function
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] amst3l:
Alright thanks, removed it!
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] dikasatrio:
i can't make nandroid backup. it's stuck at backing up cache. any help?

Phiex or Delanos kernel?

maybe a good idea to implement the adrenalize engine? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1604321 battery life increased a lot, almost 5 days! ( but then again i also have a bigger battery:P ) And also the performance is just great.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] esilviu:
5?!!!

Mine usually last 5 days, and this with default battery.

If i don't use-it for wifi or camera last 7-11 days ;-) screenshots allready posted on a few forums.

So, stop living in the phone!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] emutnyeh:
Oh yeah....try until bugfree then realease...
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] amst3l:
Do u use adrenalize engine or something else?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] esilviu:
Now yes. But i have obtained about the same stand-by time with giopro, cm7.2 and adrenaline rom. Deep sleep kernels added a few days more.

So it is more like how you use and how you set little details than how featured is the rom.

Hi sir. This is the best stock-base rom! Tyk so much ;D. Im using it for two weeks and i dont miss cm7 xD

Only i have 1 request if it possible.

Can you put an option to changue the carrier text on pull-down notification to "compact view" like on cm7? Cause its very big and anoying :p.

Tyk again for this great rom! :D

Edit: amm i have a bug. In moments, on any app like facebook or xda, the phone freeze and the screen gets back to home or to the app started before. I forget it ;)

2G/3G switch mod done.

Easily doable, but need more time for testing.

Yet unsuccessfull... Guide may be incorrect or incomplete (for example, lidroidparts doesn't even work on Gio - no launcher icon, i can't even find its activities or hidden intents) or mod conflicts with the notification bar toggles.

I leave the choice of installing these kind of scripts to the user... Reasons:

- need extended periods of testing for functionality and bugs

- I see it puts some stuff on /data. If included in ROM, at first installation it's all good, but what if you factory reset afterwards? All data contents it's lost and engine is incomplete.

- It's sooo easy to install by anyone, not like these mods I added, that require more advanced smali/xml editing or programming knowledge

- Not exactly a mod per se

Can't make an option for it in the ROM, but I can make the mod as an option during installation (you will need to chose custom installation). Will be added in next release.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] coccolino_dbro:
Link2SD is as easy as downloading it from the market, and enabling it. You do need a second partition on the SD-Card though; more info on its official topic: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=919326.

I think i have the same bug with contacts, sometimes when i try to open contacts the screen goes black and i can only go back with the home button. I can get to a particular contact through an other app though. I think i can better switch to phiexz kernel to see if this maybe resolve my issue with contacts app and mobile data always being on.

Can someone explain to me how to change kernels :angel: ?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] bgm92:
You can choose what kernel you want to use from AROMA Installer - at the moment when you install this ROM :)

I also encountered a bug. When I have loss of 3G signal, and the network switches to GSM (on Vodafone, cause Vodafone does not have EDGE), MMS application it's force-closing :)

Mmm its diferent for me. Not only on contacts. Everywhere very random jejejej. Im using phiexz kernel. I only has that bug and i dont know why but the battery its drain fast (1 day max) anjd when i kill task onbthe task manager, close me more than 20 apps O.o and i have freeze so many apps jejej.

Would it be possible to modify the following ICS theme for this ROM?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23523949&postcount=5

I tried applying it but it caused the status bar to FC on boot. I knew that it probably wouldn't work but I thought I'd try it anyway. :laugh:

I really like this ROM for its:

* stability;

* speed in establishing WiFi connections;

* the fact that I get notification of unread SMS on the lockscreen and dockbar;

* the Swype keyboard included.

I'd like to see:

* battery remaining as a percentage *beside* a bar, as you can get from CM7 and CM9;

* the ICS theme linked above applied.

Great work on this ROM. It amazes me that after flashing so many ROMs trying to get away from the Galaxy Gio's stock look and feel, I am back to something that looks like the stock ROM. :good:
