I'm changing most of the stuff in v2.1 now.

Just improving them. And keeping care about RAM Usage.

As usual, It would be in full and barebone. :D

I've added more stuff. and removed some.

Don't know what else to do.

Any comments?

Camera not working

Hi,

Excellent work! But an important 'Camera' app is not working. Any development on this case?

Please let me know.

any news about rom update?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] R3Map:
Nice!!

Damn man, love your work!

Loaded this last night on my wifes ACE, got sick and tired of the official cooper rom (slow, buggy) and decided to search XDA for a better solution. And here it is.

Well done, you're definitely going places with this fantastic ROM.

The experience so far on V2:

1. After loading DroidACE, charged to 100% last night and took it off charge at about 10pm. At 12 pm today (after quite a bit of usage on whatsapp, messenger and data on since 6am) batt down to only 89%.

2. Every now and again (on either messaging or whatsapp), the screen goes black and then to home screen. Not a biggy, but maybe have a look when you can.

3. She does not like the smiley faces on the lock screen.....(woman....go figure). I must admit though it does tend to stick out like a sore thumb when looking at the rest of the ROM's interface, which is extremely slick and professional.

Keep up the good work, and what ever you do....don't let trollers pull you down (I read one of the trolls posts earlier and its absolute crap).

Stick to your guns, you're doing a bang up job! :highfive:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] shibumi77:
At the moment I'm using Holo launcher a launcher with the ICS style and some cool features,it works quite well. It is light, fast, and seems not to use much memory. My previous favorite was Launcher Pro, but stopped to be updated long time ago.

Not saying this should be the default launcher, but is a nice option to try if you want to have a launcher with more options that the xperia one, without it being too laggy.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Remcotjuuh:
Dear masterex567,

I left your ROM since a few days now, but me finding it bad will be the last reason I left it. I would describe myself as progressively orientated, and that's why I moved on to ICS and possibly JellyBean soon. I still want to thank you and have to say that your CM7 is probably the best CM7 around. Thanks for creating one of the best ROMs ever and keep up the good work.

My wife is using DroidAce v2, the battery level reporting seems not accurate, eg full charge before sleep, 70% when we woke up, but once plugged to charger, it shows "full charge" within a minute! No improvement after several charging cycles. Any advise on this?

For new version I vote for holo launcher or ACW.

I'm still sticking with Xperia Home, because that seems to look good on the rom.

Or else, Holo Launcher is another option.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] lazyfai:
Not about the notification, but the battery level itself seems strange.

It drops from 100% to 70% in one night (~7 hours)

and then once I plug it to charger, it shows fully charged within 1 minute.

But actually it is not, when I remove the charger after several minutes it shows ~80% only. :crying:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] charlessxavier:
Ok fine.. give us two options to choose from holo launcher and xperia, that would be better.. And what theme would be your default if it is holo launcher ?

Because we know xperia theme would suit perfectly with xperia launcher :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] 121C4:
That is the point. Your phone will say it's at 100% when you charge it long before it's full. Use the app to be sure it's really full not just saying 100%. The battery percent numbers are not accurate anyway, they are a guide. If it doesn't work then fine, you have lost nothing so surely it's worth trying?

maybe use aroma to offer choice of launchers and music players at install?

Maybe it's not important, you can never please everyone and people who want different system apps can just change launchers, themes or music players anyway! It's deodexed after all!

Same result with the app, the main issue should be the kernel driver for battery reported wrong, not accurate but wrong, whenever USB is plugged, it ALWAYS think the battery is full. :eek:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] 121C4:
Perhaps using Odin to put official stock back on (check if it fixes the problem.) If that works then flash custom ROM. If not it may need a new battery. I don't think the problem is with this ROM because plenty of people get really good (relatively speaking) battery life using it. Myself included!

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] R3Map:
On my wifes phone (and on both my S2's) I have loaded a battery widget from Elvison and added an alarm to sound when the battery is completely charged. On all the phones, even though they say 100% charged, the alarm only sounds about 20min later to say that the battery full.

You may also want to reset the fuel chip. (charge till completely full, while phone is on, pull battery and leave out for about 3min. while battery is out press and hold the power button for about 20 seconds to ensure all capacitors are discharged. Replace battery and charge to completely full again. Worked on all our phones)

Try that, maybe it works for you
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] lazyfai:
Sounds practical, let me try this tomorrow!

PS. battery life is good, but the level is quite inaccurate...

@M567

After the recent stories about ussd security flaws in android I was wondering if you would consider including cyanogenMod's back ported script?

I have included a paste from their G+ post an hour ago

CyanogenMod 1 hour ago · Desktop · Public

USSD gate

Panic! Or remain calm and grab your towel. There are various (and sometimes contradictory) reports going around about which devices are vulnerable and which are not. It is largely perceived that AOSP devices are not affected. Regardless, a bit of certainty goes a long way, so here is what we know:

Three patches were merged into AOSP in June by Daisuke Miyakawa (of Google) to rectify the issue. This would effectively mean JB sourced ROMs are immune (CM 10 included). Likewise, it would appear some OEMs have independently patched the behavior.

So, we are taking Daisuke's work, and after testing, back-porting it into CM7 and CM9 source (ICS patch is already on gerrit http://goo.gl/SuuWH and GB patch is http://goo.gl/zDuca ). Testers are wanted, just to make sure there are no adverse behaviors.

Sure, I use this ROM as my daily (when I'm not trying new ones) battery for me is the best I've had, it's smooth, fast and bug free in my opinion but you should try it for yourself. Also, read other comments because many people have said this already and I agree with them :D

I hope I can find a shortcut to the data connection in the next update, maybe by put it in the notification bar, so you can turn on/off the data connection from there.

For now, I have to enter system setting every time I want to turn it on/off.

this rom has one problem with the battery .actually after 1st install when bwttery went down to 15 % i put my phone on charging and suddenly after 10 minutes it was charged 80% .is it a bug ?please help me
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] 121C4:
Charge your phone completely full, not to 100 %. I use an app called battery full notification (on play store) to let me know when it is full. After a few days use with full charging each time you need to charge, this problem should go away.

---------- Post added at 12:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:49 AM ----------

That was not the full story. The truth is that the problem is with the device. Battery percentage is not accurate. That is why stock official ROM doesn't have the percentage displayed. When charging, your phone will display a much higher battery percentage value than it really has and will reach 100 % very quickly. It also says charged. If you go to about phone > status in settings you will see it's still charging. This is where the app comes in. It's an easy way to know when the battery is full. If you charge your phone overnight while you sleep you will be fine because when your battery is full the charge changes to a trickle charge which I've read is safe. I've found my phone takes about four hours to charge from nearly empty. Charging to full will improve the accuracy of the display and obviously give you longer use from each charge

hi again i resized my ext partition to 7.70gb still using the cronmod so now have 7.70gb system storage and still my ace runs fast and smooth :D

p.s to all remember that when you resize your ext partition it will also resize your fat32 partition as well so you need to re format you fat32 partition or your ace will not read your sd card

Hi, I will like to give it a try to that script, and I think a good time will be when installing the new version of the droid rom.

Now, looking at the page that is linked, there are several scripts. You seem to be recommending d2ext+ cronmod, but the author of the scripts says:

So which should I install? Have someone tried the INT2EXT with the Droid rom? Will they work fine together?

Cheers!

hi i have not tried the int2ext but i do use the d2ext+ and can say speed is not an issue.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] shibumi77:
Thanks! That's helpful.

A couple of questions: The instructions said that one fat32 partition and a one ext3/4 partition are needed. What are the sizes they should be? I imagine the ext3/4 will be the bigger one, but how big should be the fat32.

And the other, which you choose? ext3 or ext4? I know in linux ext4 is faster, but I saw some people recommending ext3, not sure why.

Great news!!! :good::good::good:

Thanks!!!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] PsyGik:
512MB of Ext3 more than enough for above average number of apps.

FAT32 your wish, it will contain all the stuff which you'll put in SD.

No, Partition need not be bigger.

Ext4 has has stability issues. Ext3 recommended. Best way to create partition is using CWM Recovery.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] shibumi77:
So, to be sure I'm understanding this correctly, is the fat32 partition the one that will simulate to be internal space? The one that will be mounted inside /data?

And the ext3/4 the one will work as normal sd space?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] PsyGik:
It's the other way around.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] 121C4:
I tried int2ext+ first but it didn't take first time so I tried d2ext+ which I've been using ever since. Only glitch is when I install apps I get a popup saying "process system is not responding " I tap "wait" and that's it. Small price to pay, really. My sd card is 32 gb class 6. My ext partition is 1gb. I have around 150 apps installed between system and sd ext and have over 500mb free.

@Mol3y: is that (picture) a preview of the new version or is it your own personalisation?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] dj_mol3y_x8:
Its my own personalistion :D what you think of it?

P.S I don't get the pop up glitch
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] masterex567:
