Story time!

So I always, always struggle with the gps on my Ace. Was one of the main reasons why I bough a smartphone, so having problems with it didn't make me happy.

Basically, it could take more than 10 or 15 minutes to get my position, depending on where I was. Sometimes even after 20 min. I will not get my position, specially if I was not in a open space (where I live there are plenty of smalls streets with buildings that have 3 or 4 floors to the side).

Sometimes was really annoying, and made me waste a lot of time or just exhaust my battery.

I did quite a lot of research about it, posted here on xda (For example: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=29853821&postcount=7), made changes in the configuration, but nothing worked. The only change was that in the beginning show me sometimes up to 10 satellite, but none was use, and after many changes, it show me up to 10, but all of them appear as used (see the image in the post to know what I'm talking about).

But the other day I made a test with this new rom and BAM! I get my position quite fast. I was in a open space, near the beach, so I was not sure if it was that or not.

So it happens that I go out with a really hot girl, and as always I look in advance in the map the places we are going (and here some advice, save them as favorites in google maps, so you can check them later quicker). But in the middle of the date, we decided to change plans, and heard to a new place. So I took my phone to look how to get there, hoping it will not make me look lame waiting 5 or 10 minutes to get the damn position.

But no! In less than a minute, voilà!!! I couldn't believe it.

I made a couple of test since them, even in the small streets where I could never get the position, and yes, is definitely blazing fast compared as how it was before.

So I don't know what kind of magic you did for this rom, but thank you so much Masterex567! Finally my gps is useful!

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] masterex567:
Hmm.

Thanks. :good:

Looks like my idea of mixing stock binaries and cm7 together worked!

As well as the concept of keeping the gps related files clean as stock.

One thing,

Are the screenshots on the OP working for you guys?

These screenshots are from my Gmail Account and they do not work for me when i'm signed out, only when i'm signed in.

So, are they working for you guys?

I finally moved from Apocalypse to this one and I must say

that I am glad I did it. Looks and feels nice, good work.

Anyhow, there is this one little thing...the ROM seems to lag a little

like all the time, this never happened on Apocalypse.

Latest firekernel flashed, all steps done correctly, I even wiped

cache and dalvik cache after flashing. Governer is smartassV2

and overclocked to 864MHz. Is there anything else I could do to make it

more fluid?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] zizibuba:
Anyone?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] wbrambley:
Try disabling animations, look for an app called autostarts and use it wisely. Using on demand governor should also make it more fluid.

Soft Buttons ICS Click Me.

TO UNDO, Just Disable Soft buttons from CM Settings > Tablet Tweaks if you applied by mistake.

Procedure to Install

1. Download the .zip file

2. Copy them to sd card

3. Go to CWM, MOUNT SYSTEM and MOUNT DATA

4. Flash the .zip file.

5. Reboot.

To Mod the soft buttons go to CM Settings > Tablet Tweaks.

Enjoy.

Just want to ask you guys if this works to you? I flashed it 3 times in my v2.1 (9/10/12) but tablet tweaks settings don't show settings for the soft button. Won't it work in v2.1?

Hmm.. Didnt see that before. Thanks.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] masterex567:
Hmm. It seems i have to do some more testing.

Dead Codes on framework are known.

It's probably because of being compiled wrong...

But, i haven't seen it affecting performance. so it could be tagged minor. :)

May I ask which app to sd method or/and additional scripts you use with this ROM, CMV?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] masterex567:
At the start of the setup wizard it's noticeable.

I've found the setup wizard somehow laggy and i'm sure others have felt some lag with it too.

But, after some time around 2 days.

The stability gets sort of back to normal.

Ofcourse i have no proof for this. But it's a experiment i carried out. :)

Do not expect an update to v3 for some time yet. It will come when ready.

Contact your service provider to check your mms settings are correct.

Hi, can anyone confirm that the alarm/clock is not able to turn on the phone when this is turn off?

If I'm not mistaken, it was possible to leave your phone turn off and still the alarm will sound, at least in the stock rom, but that is not happening any more in my phone. Does anyone knows if this problem is an issue related with this rom or cyanogenmod roms?

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Tusharkamath:
If i over clock, that is in this case upto 920mhz . What are the pros and cons?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] masterex567:
Overclocking can bring stability and will make your phone smoother. You will notice less lag in system apps as well as games..

The main disadvantage is battery life. With overclocking the processor runs faster and will use more battery.

What I usually do:

Keep phone at 480 max and 240 min when I'm not using it.

Then overclock to 820 for daily use. And for gaming 940 works for me...

Stock Messaging and Contact app

Hay, great rom! I put it on as my partner found her stock rom too dam slow, this looks super slick and speedy. Just what she needed.

However, I was hoping for some help....

I backed up her apps, texts and contacts using Titanium Back up and flashed away.

Only problem I have it TB wont restore her texts because the stock Samsung Messaging program isn't in the phone and for some reason it wont restore it.

This is the same with her contacts. Normally I wouldn't worry, but somehow her contacts weren't syncing with her gmail account. So if I cant get her contacts out from the TB file I dont know what to do.

Does anyone have any ideas or advice?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] 121C4:
Hey,

Restore these ones.

The xml versions
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] nowimboard:
Hypothetically, if those weren't there, would I be screwed?

Because they aren't. Guess I didn't back up all the right stuff.

I have just tried searching for the apk on the forum and installing them but that hasn't appeared to have worked.

Appreciate the assistance!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] 121C4:
I assume you didn't make a cwm nandroid backup because you could restore that, backup properly and then reflash?

---------- Post added at 08:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:40 PM ----------

What about going back to stock, restore details using your titanium backup, redo backup, do backup with other app as well, then flash again and use new backups?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] nowimboard:
I've never made a nandroid backup. I know, I know.. It always looked to complicated and everything (on my phone at least) is sync'd up anywhere and everywhere so I've never been that bothered about loosing data. What I didn't think to check on this phone that that her contacts and texts were sync'd.

Would it be sensible to flash a stock rom back on, upload the texts and contacts again, sync then reflash this rom? Or is there a way to get the data out of the TB Files I have backed up?

(I'm expecting that, "No nandroid back up? Then it's your own fault you silly sod" messages, and you would be completely right)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] 121C4:
That's what I would do first because I don't know how to get that info out of the backup you have. On the same ROM (I. E. Stock) that you did your backup on, your titanium backup should work. Once you have her data restored you can do things better.

Everyone makes mistakes and yours isn't serious.

Clean install and the ROM's working fine. But how/where will I see the increase in space? Installing apps seems to use the usual amount of space and no indicators anywhere that I'm using d2ext+. I tried searching this thread and the original d2ext+ thread but couldn't find much. I hope I haven't missed anything obvious. Thank you for this ROM!

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] 121C4:
1) do you have internal storage low messages/warnings? No? Good!

2) if you look in /system/etc/init.d/ you should have a file called this 40d2ext

3) look in your settings applications/storage. Your internal storage should be the size of your ext partition on your sd card

As seen in this very old screen shot, look at the bottom of the screen.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] forcrp:
Sorry, I was in a hurry. Should've been more specific. My internal memory is still at the usual ~180.

And I checked /system/etc/init.d, no 40d2ext. Screenshot of contents of init.d attached. I haven't done anything other than flash DroidAce 2.1, d2ext+ and the settings fix.

I did flash the zip, in fact the only reason I did a clean install was to avoid problems with d2ext+/other scripts and make a clean start. Should I reinstall d2ext+? If there's a different thread I should be asking this question in, please let me know. Thank you!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] nowimboard:
Just wanted to say thanks for your help. I don't think I backed up everything on TB properly, but I managed to get some contacts off of an old phone and facebook. Going to learn lessons from this one and make sure that all data is sync'd up and that I do nandroid back ups from now on.

But I appreciate your assistance all the same.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] masterex567:
Use go backup next time. :D

It's better.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] 121C4:
Did you mount system, data & sdext before flashing d2ext+? Try again after flashing droid ace.

Also, 06mountdl in your init.d screen shot can be deleted when you get it working as d2ext+ does this anyway.

Hi.

Is it ok to update to the latest Firekernel (09.10.2012) and to the latest Xperia S theme (Xperia S v011 FINAL)? I mean, because of all the scripts and tweaks of DroidAce... :confused:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] 121C4:
Make a recovery backup then try what you like. If it doesn't work You can restore your backup
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] masterex567:
Yes, You can.

Firekernel 09.10.12 has no main difference from the 28 one.

It just adds something for cyanmobile and since droidace is based on cm7, It doesn't make a change.

You can upgrade the theme, but you will lose all ics elements and other modded png.

Yes, try get "TJ_Ahluwalia" Music mods, Beats Music Player and all his little tweaks

The fastest possible tweaks, Adrenaline Engine, Geeky Engine

And for the love of god please have a working camera/Flashlight and USB/Wi-Fi Tethering, I'm sick of good Roms being ruined because one of those don't work

Also, A2SD (keep in mind performance)

Low RAM usage like in nvky71's NVKY-ICS THEME-XWKTR rom

Only do this if you want to be the maker of the best ROM out there :P
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] masterex567:
Beats audio + alsa is already integrated.

Plus, i'm trying to port the AC!D Audio Engine. It's awesome on the S3.

Since i hv both devices, it can be done easier.

Adrenaline engine included.

Has a working camera/flashlight etc. :D

A2SD should be optional. But i'll add some more ext4 tweaks.

Low ram usage has been there since v2. only 60MB. ;)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] SteveBenz:
Very nice, covered all criterias :P

How's USB/Wi-Fi Tethering? can you USB Tether Wi-Fi?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] 121C4:
Wifi tethering, torch, camera have been working since v1. Usb tethering is with an app so I'm sure, if it's important to you guys, Masterex567 will add it to the ROM.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] SteveBenz:
You're right

do you plan to change the theme? (different launcher)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] masterex567:

I'm still investigating on how to do it for theme....

giving me some errors, but i'll get it fixed.

Aroma looks nice, if you get it working right you could just put it as a seperate option

Suggestions/Ideas

Let's see...

-JB Statusbar and Notifications (ofcourse with the same statusbar closing transitions)

-Lewa's PIM. (Will be needing to deodex the original lewa first AFAIK)

-If PIM not possible then backporting CM10 Messaging App. (for the sake of popup option on a lightweight messaging app)

-SEMC Music Player/Timescape/Bravia Engine (just for the eye candy)

-WP7 Style Lock Screen

-CM9/10 Style Recent Apps

-A Digital Clock Widget xD

-Ability to stay permanently in Landscape Mode or Portrait Mode (feature to be backported from CM9/10)

-Extended Volume control (feature to be backported from CM9/10)

-System Themed to WP7 style. Looks classy the black and white stuffs (tired of ICS/JB themes)

Huge list I guess,That's it for now :D

P.S: I might edit this post later on :p
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] masterex567:
1) I have already finished modding notification drawer to JB.

For status bar, you can use a theme. Which is included in aroma. ;)

2) Lewa's PIM is not possible. As for the backporting i don't think that's possible either coz of API levels.

3) I'll try implementing the Walkman music player..

Bravia engine files are included, but it doesn't show a difference.

Timescape is laggy and uses space. :/

4) WP7 style lockscreen included in aroma.

5) I think that's impossibru. But if there is a mod, i'll implement it.

6) Y u no download from play store?

7) Another backport? I'll look for a mod if there is one like that

8) Backport. :rolleyes:

9) Hmm. More suggestions??

I'm waiting for an edit. :D

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] abhibnl:
Well one thing i always kinda want on a cm rom, it must install apps to sd automatically(no ext). Like on stock, it installs in sd rather than phone. Even i tick on external in cm settings, app go to internal memory. Really i would like to have a fix for that. Well i never tried blackhawk on cm so it'd nicd to try.

Why not a sense style lockscreen on v2? :p:p

Checked the latest SuperSU v0.94

It has some cool features such as :

- Per-app notification configuration

- Temporary unroot

- Works when Android isn't properly booted

- Works with non-standard shell locations

- Trusts ADB connection

Have a look if these might fit for the v2. I ain't sure if it will support ace.

You can incorporate OTA Update center which will allow all of your users to just go ahead and update like a usual Stock ROM Update. Would be easy on non techy fellows.

Click here to have a look into the OTA Know-how.

Btw to the noobs:

OTA is Over The Air Update Service which works something like a software updater for the ROM you are dealing with right now. If you are scared about the workovers to flash in recovery the non wipe/wipe ROM update then you should probably ask the dev to incorporate this.

Well if you end up with incomplete downloads or MD5 error then blame your network provider or ask Dev if his upload was on a full sharing capability website or not such as dropbox or goo.im.

PS: Remember, never go to pee taking your mobile away from the wifi zone.
