Ok. Did the entire install process and after each reboot doing a power cycle aswell, made sure to mount, did every step to the letter. My UI is still not like the pics, some elements are like popup windows and the power button window with reboot on it etc, but the status bar doesn't look like the screenshots. I tried applying the UOT theme in theme manager - it just seems to revert to default (it says it doesn't include images in sizes for my phone or something (Yes, I have an S5830)

So what else can I do? I'd really like to use this ROM.

Edit: Also to note is that the status bar says my carrier is Orange when it is infact Virgin, so maybe that helps?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Jar3112:
What is the difference you noticed in that status bar? Maybe you're talking about the green bars below the switches?

You can get rid of them in Cyanogenmod settings --> Interface --> Notification Power Widget --> Hide Indicator.

This problem only with any other kernel. If you try to flash for example Blackhawk or Ace Kernel beta 4, you will get not working proximity sensor.

But stay on buggy firekernel I don't want. This problem only with final version of Apocalypse 09/07/12. Version from 17/06/12 without any problems, but it too old. Sorry for my English.

Missing widgets

Hi guys,

I have installed some app as "WiFi Manager" or "Advanced Task Killer" but their widgets are missing in "choose widget" menu.

I didn'd have this problem with StockLite 6 ROM so I don't think the apps have a bug.

Do you know how to solve?

Any ideas?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Qbsti:
Since i have updated the ROM to the final version i have to say it has gotten worse oO

i only did this because i didn't wanted the center clock, but with the final version 9/7/12 also bluetooth is not working, and after reboot i lose all my widget both on launcherpro and hololauncher the battery usage is also very bad i hardly managed to get 24h with no data barely no apps and processor on 122/245.

is this really the best CM7 ROM here?

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] grandgreed:
For new users. Steps how to update to Apocalypse without any problems with stable kernel.

1. Flash via Odin any 2.3.6 stock rom witch have 4 files inside. After phone restarts wait for loading. When done turn off phone.

If you don't have stock rom use this (S5830XWKTE_S5830EPLKP3_S5830EPLKP3 Germany March 2012) Download

2. Flash CWM, restart and do all wipes include dalvik cache Download CWM

3. Update current rom to APOCALYPSE FINAL - 09.07.2012 Download

4. Mount /system/ and Install patch-09.07.12.zip

5. Install Update.zip (SU fixed) Download

6. Make restart and wait for loading. When it done restart to Recovery.

7. Wipe dalvik cache

8. Flash fixed Firekernel-09.10.12 choose in aroma any official CM with(out) liked governors. Choose any updated WiFi driver, both working stable. Download kernel

9. Restart phone, wait for loading and again restart to Recovery

10. Update modem (Japan KT4) Modem

11. Install GPS patch and restart the phone GPS patch

12. After loading go to CyanogenMod settings > Performance > then look for settings: Use JIT = no, Enable surface dithering = no, Use 16bit transparency = yes, Scrolling cache = force disable, Disable boot animation = as you want, Lock home in memory = yes, Lock messaging app in memory = yes

13. Recomended CPU setting: Governor = ONDEMAND, Min CPU = 122, Max CPU = 787, Set on boot = yes.

14. Restart the phone...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] bladum:
Why firekernel 28.08.12 and not 09.10.12?

and Ondemand governor is better than smatassv2?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] grandgreed:
I didn't test new Firekernel on today. For this time previous version works without any problems, fast, lagfree and there is nothing issues with sensors. Edge and 3G switching fast without problems, animation goes perfect. I will test last Firekernel some late. Governor (ondemand) force max freq CPU that you set some fast than Smartassv2, but eats some more batt, but it gives best performance. Smartass was made for smart using between CPU and batt.

___________

upd

Confirm that last Firekernel works great, problem with bootloop is gone. Previous post updated.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Qbsti:
It's very helpful, but what about the ics layout?

you only mentioned flashing the patch(...).zip

what about the undo.zip ??

the original instruction (on page 1) was writen only for the previous final (17/6 or something like that)? because i did the same for the 9/7/12 v. ...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] grandgreed:
Make undo is not needed. If you have problems with status bar, just restart device or connect usb. Make undo only at no other variants. Good luck.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Qbsti:
can i tick the Official cm (in AROMA installer) if didn't flash it from the stock ROM?

Then don't install based only.on screenshots. How lazy are some of you people??!! Read the thread, look at the comments. I know it's 100+ pages, but it's worth the read. Look around in the settings and figure something out for once. People are here to help, not hold your hand. It's a setting, not a problem.

Check your apn settings. If those are ok, go to /system/etc and edit spn-conf.xml and add your carrier info and it will show properly.

"Here is my rom, here are screenshots of what it looks like, here is the download link and installation instructions"

"oh, it doesn't look like you expected it to? sorry forgot to mention the screenshots are different than the actual rom"

and I don't know what i'm even supposed to be checking on the APN section. it says its using virgin but the pull down menu either says orange or t-mobile, I search for networks and it finds virtually all networks in the country except virgin.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] sauron82:
NO THEY'RE NOT!!! Everything you see in the screenshots is in the rom. The screenshots are how the rom maker has it set on his own personal device; they're not universal. It's like saying I have a different Windows version than the store because my wallpaper is different. No, they're both Windows 7, with the same features, but I made mine look slightly different. We're not here to hold your hand. Look at the settings, explore the rom.

I misread your post. Virgin doesn't have it's own network, it's own infrastructure; they operate over other carriers's networks. Your contract is with Virgin, you pay Virgin, but you/Virgin are actually using the Orange/T-Mobile network/towers/cells. It's how the smaller companies offer cheaper prices (slightly): They didn't have to pay to set up their own towers and cells. So technically, what it's showing is correct.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] paradoxiumwind:
Right. that must be it then. the APN info has Virgin as the name though, how can I get it to say Virgin instead of T-Mobile on the lockscreen/pulldown menu? It's kind of jarring to see the wrong carrier every time, is there a file I can edit or something? There must be a way because in all other ROMs i've tried it shows up as Virgin fine so I don't really get why this isn't

I just moved to this ROM, a very new world opened. This is so fast and stylish, you did one fine, fine job here my friend.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] sauron82:
I actually prefer barebone roms. One reason why I started using custom roms was the bloatware that the stock roms have (not the stock-like roms here, those are still custom).

I was playing with my ACE last night. Phone got back to me as I gave my ACE 2 to my wife. I own a NEXUS know (best phone ever). So after a long time, ACE seemed really slow to me. Anyway... i tried latest firekernel and seemed pretty ok. I flashed the OC Official version. I am having second thoughts of upgrading this rom. Is latest cyanogen that much of a difference? One other thing I noticed...launcher pro is getting old and I tried holo kauncher. It seemed to respond better with ACE and APOCALYPSE. LauncherPro gets very slow, especially after boot when phone is loaded with lots of apps. I also want to try APOCALYPSE with no .prop tweaks at all. I wonder how will that go. Any way if there's anything important I missed all this time you can tell me

PS1: ACE is limited to what it can do. The simplest the rom the better the performance

PS2: I see devs here try to port AOKP on ACE. Respect, but...ACE really cannot handle this

Hi itasoulas, a last update would be awesome!

Personally, I'm still using the Final version, though some settings bugs. I uninstalled adrenaline engine and changed it with latest v6 supercharger, and I must say it works better. In addition I'm using INT2EXT4+ and everything 's fine and smooth. I agree with you about holo launcher, in fact I'm using it too!

Feel free to ask me about other things, i think I might be one of the best supporters of your rom (I'm on them since miracle v4 and never changed till then :p).
