Try one if the multitude of gps apos to change your config. For example....

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.fastergps

As for ota; if you cant see it you are either blind or you didnt mount data and flashed in cwm. Get it from market. Just search allianceota.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
No clue :P
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Someone said they did one but never posted the link
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sumpf2:
Just flashed update 1

As far as ive tested the volume key to skip funktion still doesnt work.

It always gets a song backwards, no matter if i press up or down

+ volume only gets lower, too, no matter if i press up or down.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
It works right here. Anyone else??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] therealashish:
It happened to me, but before update 1.

After applying the update 1, skip track works fine and also volume +/- when phone is locked also works fine.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Thankyou :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sumpf2:
Maybe its because i flashed the temp.zip through recovery and not startet the update through ota oO

Edit: wtf?! Downloaded and flashed again (but through ota this time) and now it works!

Maybe because ota wiped cache or dalvik cache after flash what i forgot to to after i manually flashed it (got the optimizing apps screen after second try)

Happy again. :)

By the way: i also noticed the lockscreen playing the unlock sound. But only the first time after boot, everytime else it works fine :)

Edit2: before the lockscreen fix i could choose a high picture as normal wallpaper and it would give me the choice to use it as lockscreen wallpaper, too. But now this is not happening. When i want to set it up seperately, it only gives me the wide frame to scale the wallpaper, not the high one that it gives you normally for the lockscreen wallpaper.

Also when i choose a wide lockscreen wallpaper sometimes there are black bars at the top and the bottom or sometimes the wallpaper gets stretched in length instead of with as it was the case before the update o.O
[Galaxy S II Android Development] therealashish:
IS there any way to get this

Instead of this

because i really don't like the small photo view. :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] snake86:
hi,

i've a question: i've read the flash istruction, but i want to know if there is possibile to flash directly from recovery mode (wiping all)?

thx
[Galaxy S II Android Development] therealashish:
yes.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Indeed...BUT....MOUNT DATA AFTER WIPING BEFORE FLASHING :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cloud596:
cant wait sgs 3 theme, would be good.. but please add remove all button on stock task manager. just need to remove all recent app, without swiping it.

thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] amitmiz:
Finally i got a working SGS3 theme. though I used stock LPO framework-res as base and not Allince so its a bit different. how ever I ported to that framework the ripple lock and all the other alliance feature so its just the same but without ugly HOLO =]

screenshots will be uploaded soon =]
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jadajada:
Thanks for this ROM! I have tried to install the hacked s-voice package from this forum, but it does not show up in the apps drawer after flashing it. I have tried it on Portal Rom before and it worked there. Should it not work on this rom also? Someone mentioned that it could be because the partition was full, they adviced to delete som apps from /System/Apps... Is this true or does the hack simply not work on this rom?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] snake86:
this is the problem...how ??

there isn't mount in my recovery :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Its a big app so yes probably full. Uninstall some stuff with rom customizer
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
You have it in any cwm. Under mounts and storage if i remember right
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Do me a favour pls... If you have external sd, please remove it and try installing update via ota again. Think this may be issue :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ehmjay:
i flashed the rom but without mounting data.. what complications could there be? the only thing i noticed is that the phone is not rooted but that's easy to fix :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ali madan:
Amazing job! Waiting for the link ;p
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ipmanwck:
I prefer this too. I also prefer ics text application rather than Samsung one as you see more text. Can we have these as an add on?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] amitmiz:
Lol everytime I am ulocking my phone using ripple (means I am moving my finger to crate waves ) there's Samasun'g Over the Horzion rington instead of water sound thats so funny lol, probably forgot the raw file Xp
[Galaxy S II Android Development] therealashish:
Nobody has an answer to my last question ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Lol. It is rooted but you didnt mount data like i said. So anything that should have flashed to /data i.e superuser didnt flash. Jeez i swear people think i write this stuff for the good of my health.... ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Maybe. But you need to reassign ids in policy. Just wait a bit until i put ota s3 theme up. Im not writing out instructions to fix it
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Im not searching back to find what i missed...

Incidentally...there are lots of people saying "can i have this" and "can i have that". I will add stuff when I can but consider this.... from 4500 downloads not even one person thought this was good enough or even liked ripple enough to offer to buy me a beer....
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] amitmiz:
fixed that XD the wave sound was missing from raw folder as I said.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GalaxyGusta:
Can I install this rom without wiping?

Coming from wanamlite XWLPT
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sumpf2:
Easier. Problem was that i didnt delete the cache or dalvik cache. When i startet the update through ota the app deleted it after flashing. Its working now :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] xator91:
This rom is wonderful but there is a mod to remove toggles? 11 toggles is too much for me :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] therealashish:
Really sorry about that man, for now i have nothing to offer than a big thanx for this amazing rom and your time you had put into it.. Am still a student earning nothing.. :( i got no credit/debit card to make a payment.

Well i had asked that thrice and i am so unlucky that it got unnoticed :) .I would try to do it myself if somebody could guide me a bit, what exactly needs to be done for that.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] amitmiz:
......(removed images)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Did you change much xml from stock files in that theme?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ali madan:
Hey guys!

Any chance I can add arabic to the rom's default keyboard?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Please pm me about the theme. I have an idea :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] arhanghel92:
The theme is awsome!! The gs3 one. Pls goldie let him release it :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ehmjay:
Ho goldi! i flashed v3 now and this time i mounted data :) i see there are many things that i missed including ota when i flashed without mounting.. One questuon though, do i have to flash update1 or any other updates on v3 version?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ali madan:
goldie waiting for your approval :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sumpf2:
Flash update1

Fixes some problems like wrong volume button layout when screen is off (update 1 includes all other fixes you can find under updates in ota)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ehmjay:
Thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mufcmsy2012:
I tries installing this from and it just stays at yellow triangle is there any waiting time till it starts up.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cruisinbeatz:
Hey all, looks a decent rom but is there any battery mods that work properly? e.g. the GGB ones dont work which is understandable as I dont think they are ment to. but the ICS ones do part work, none of the 9 show the battery percentage or am I doing something wrong here. I also have click on "Old AllianceOTA" to get anything but from what I see on some screen shots that some people have "General, Phone, Info" along the top where I only have General and info. Tried looking their site but either there isn't much info on the rom mods or Im finding guides unreal hard to find on there. Really want to use this rom and it suits most of my needs more than other roms. Thanks for any helps guys.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ehmjay:
after update1, lockscreen wallpaper has very low quality
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Turn on battery % in settings-display! :P
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
How did u flash?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cruisinbeatz:
Aww i feel so stupid, thank you so much.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mufcmsy2012:
Recovery then tried from customizer
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
If you are stuck you can follow the guide for coming from stock and flash resurrection rom wiyh odin to boot your phone. Then this with rom customizer.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] xatou:
Very good Rom. Keep working!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mufcmsy2012:
I'm coming from mysticking32 ics rom. I've never had a problem before installing roms worked with doing the same with Sammy roms and cm9 and I don't have a comp to use Odin.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Well boot recovery...wipe everything...mount data...install from zip. Should work.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mufcmsy2012:
What does mount data do?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Mounts /data so the script can flash to it properly
[Galaxy S II Android Development] aljo00:
Doesnt work with latest siyah beta 6....

stuck on Samsung Galaxy 2 screen.

Removed the battery. Going in Recovery (v5 from this rom...) reinstall again...and it works :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GalaxyGusta:
goldie please apply this theme

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=30206458&postcount=265

the current theme is very bad i have to say.. :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Sorry...this is impolite...mods please excuse me....but f*** off you cheeky b*******. You slaggin off weeks of work there. Not some "cobble together stuff from all over and dump in lidroid toggles". This was built from scratch. I try to help people and be polite but that is just too much. Dont like the theme.... Learn to theme yourself or go elsewhere. Im not your personal rom maker.

The whole point of AllianceROM is that its different to the other 1001 roms that just add jkay framework, lidroid toggles and a theme. Want that....go elsewhere....

Im done here til some people stop the ask ask ask and take take take and learn to be more appreciative

/rant over
[Galaxy S II Android Development] plotinus:
Guys Goldie its making a theme so stop asking him to "apply this theme/ theme looks uggly/" come on he had posted several times: "I'M MAKING A GS3 THEME JUST GIVE ME A FEW DAYS" can't you guys wait?? He's not working for us we just have to be patient.

@goldie I would definitely buy you a beer but I have no PayPal. This rom is amazing and for me everything its excellent. Also your support its great so please keep the good work at your own pace.

Just please don't ever remove ripple lock screen and remove all button in recent apps. :p

SGS2
[Galaxy S II Android Development] amitmiz:
Understand you XD

and sorry, I think that I had the same question before (wanted u to make a theme)

I removed the screenshots that I had posted before so you won't be bothered.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rajarshi10:
I am on Ollo S2 which is probably one of the best rom I've used. This rom seems its on the same track with the ripple lock as bonus. A review maybe? :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
You didnt need to do that. You i have no issue with as you actually did something to help rather than slag off my work and ask for stuff!! :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] plotinus:
Stable

Fast

Great battery life

Ripple effect :D :D

No problems so far. Just make sure to follow installation instructions to the letter and you'll like it. Trust me

SGS2
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GalaxyGusta:
but you'r rom is already NOT different from any other samsung based rom!

you didnt changed a thing beside putting some weird AOSP theme that look weird on the TW interface

the only new and awesome thing you did is implanting the S3 lock screen which in my opinion is AMAZING and what im asking is only putting the rest of the s3 theme to complete it

design is one of the biggest things in a rom because all the samsung based are THE SAME

im sorry if im rude but that the truth
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
So...how many samsung based roms have s3 toggles with auto scroll instead of lidroid ones? How many have different style toggles instead of ...again....lidroid or jkay? How many roms do their own mods instead of just using jkays files. How many edit every smali and change every id themselves? Sorry if im rude but you have absolutely no clue about development. If you did you would know this IS different and not just jkay dressed up. If you did you would do the theme yourself. But you didnt...so you dont....so your opinion of what YOU want means nothing to me. Now troll elsewhere please. You made your point but my aim is not to do things just because YOU decide thats what you like. I do what I want. All you needed to do was be polite when asking but even that was too much to ask.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ehmjay:
just go and try another rom with the theme you like! it's very rude to just command others to do something for you!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GalaxyGusta:
but i didnt commend i just recommended that he will check what amit made for him an maybe implamant it in the update becuase amit was wait for an approval to do it

belive me im trying to theme it by myself its very hard im not very good at those stuff and amit dont want to realese anything to me (only the hebrew dialer which i needed) even in PM
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cloud596:
ahh another troll, didnt appreciate the hardwork of developer if u didnt like it just modify by ur self. dont spam here just for post some meaningless.

peacee :V
[Galaxy S II Android Development] aljo00:
Somebody want modified system-ui with circled battery mod ?

Attached is APK (you must push and change permissions)

If anybody wants CWM flashable I could upload too.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ehmjay:
wow man did u at least check u what u said?? " pls apply this theme coz ur theme is very bad! "

your posts are not coherent so pls stop! apologize to goldi and wait for the theme like we all do. amit himself said that he will wait for goldi's approval, and that means RESPECT! you should have some of that too
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GalaxyGusta:
i am sorry if goldi got it the wrong way i Respect him for the work he put into this project

it seems like the rom that i was wating for a long time only with a diffrent theme..

and the word please refers to asking someone to do something not commending/forcing him to do so
[Galaxy S II Android Development] amitmiz:
I modded the settings apk with the same order like gs3 with some modifications frommy side, it's pretty neat xD

I can upload the edited apk file if you wish

Nice. You used lidroid toggles right? If you can remove that and theme the existing sysui i will put it in the updates section of ota if you want? :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] amitmiz:
i'll try Xp
[Galaxy S II Android Development] porkchopbolt:
@amitmiz

I noticed you have alliance settings in the settings. Was that something you have done? I don't have that in the standard ROM.

By the way Goldieking, full credit to you for blazing your own trail with this ROM. Think I'll be staying on it for a while.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nmeuret:
Goldieking,

Would you mind if I add your Ripple lockscreen to my themes (Blue XPerience and S3 XPerience) ?

As you know, this will include the use of some of your resource apks (framework.jar, android.policy.apk and framework-res.apk merge with mine). Of course, I will credit you as the author in my thread.

This will make this lockscreen available for other ROM ...

Thanks for your work !!!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jayk32:
Yes PLEASE!! :cool: :fingers-crossed: Love it.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Of course. All we ask is that you do not modify the custom settings app to remove the name which is needed for the shortcuts. That way it still bears the alliance. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Theme Cleaner added to ota to remove blue texts and xml colors in preparation for themes. There are 2 in ota already, a red and a green which you can see in the first posts here...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1704959

Install the theme cleaner from updates before and between themes.

I added color changers in the rom settings for date, clock and carrier. These will be blue until you change them. Once changed do a hotboot from powermenu to see the changes.

Other themes will hopefully follow now the cleaner is done to remove the blue texts. OTA will push the images and xml into the existing apks.

:)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nmeuret:
ok no problem, as you wish. Actualy, I will still need some time to merge some resources, but I already make it work on my Wanam 12.3.

Once again congratulations for your work, nice to see we still have talented developers on S2 (not leaving for S3 !). Your ROM is very special, a unique alternative to stock and aokp/cm roms !
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ryther:
Hi all! I've managed to boot Alliance as a second ROM ;)

It's simple: move your first rom to second rom, install Alliance as the first rom and then swap!

The rom is really good! I was looking for a stock ROM with the vanilla look ;) the only things troubling me are the delay on the home button (i'm coming from the AOSP world, how can i remove it?) and the notification toogles, they're too many and not so intuitive! Everything else, however, are really a piece of art of theming :D

Keep the good work up!!!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] amitmiz:
Finally I themed the stock sysui, it was really hard, but I did it

I 'have applied the green theme after using theme cleaner, but the date and time in the status bar are still blue.

Is dat normal?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Open rom settings...scroll down...change with color picker. Reboot
[Galaxy S II Android Development] aljo00:
Which kernel did you flash ?

Latest siyah?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sumpf2:
This rom is rocksolid...

Not had any freeze, reboot, nor the need to remove the battery. In my opinion this is pretty awesome, cause i would say that my phone usage is kind of hardcore...

I got to 3 hours display time in 6 hours without charging and 2 h display in around 12 hours untill the phone was empty. No oc, no uv, just stock supercoreics + high data usage and autobrightness.

The theme is really unike. At first i thought "ehm... Okay o.O" but after some time now i really started to like it!

Great to see something new like this and i cant wait to see more development-greatness going on here :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tcs80:
1) May i know how to customize the toggles? i dun wan to display the text.

2) I din see the OTA option...how to enable it?

Thx :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
You cant easily im afraid. Will look into this for future updates
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sumpf2:
Open rom customizer and at the top you will find Old AllianceOTA

If you dont have rom customizer or alliance ota installed, go to the play store and dowload them (or flash the rom again and mount data before you flash!)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tcs80:
I cant see the AllianceOTA in rom customizer..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ehmjay:
u should have mounted data before flashing the rom.. i guess u can reflash without wiping and u will have ota..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mythtrandyr:
This is my version themed SystemUI.apk...But this design is based on lidroid-res...

If this theme is like Goldieking, I upload it ..lidroid remove and add their own amendments to the system ... I think will not take more than 10 - 20 minutes ..

I could remake itself, this version of the SystemUI for use in AllianceROM ... but from one file to download all the firmware, there is no desire..

sorry for my BAD English, i use Google translate
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tcs80:
Sorry, i am from another custom rom. What do you mean by mount data? Thx..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sumpf2:
In the clockworkmod recovery you have on your phone there is a menu point called "mount and storage" (not 100% sure about the name)

In the next screen youll find the point "mount /data"

Press it. After that it should say "unmounz data" but.dont press it again. Go back and flash as usual :)

Edit: some battery screenshots :)

Data usage says ive used ~104mb data today :D

Spoiler content hidden.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sumit.K:
Whenever I hit OldAllianceOTA, it says "Connection to http://ota.alliance-rom.org refused".... thoughts???

BTW, this is the smoothest custom ROM I've tried so far. Gonna stick with it for long :) A big thumbs up to Goldieking!

EDIT - After a couple of re-starts, its now working but only downloads via 3G and shows error while on WiFi. Any reasons why it wont work on WiFi?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tcs80:
Thx...will test it out.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] aljo00:
I like your toogles.

Could you please upload

I've lost root. I flashed Siyah but still it says I don't have root access. What do I do? :( :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
You did not lose root. Install and open superuser. And next time read the instructions and MOUNT DATA BEFORE FLASHING! ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] snake86:
thx for your support!! i've founded it!!:D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] carlz0206:
hi just want to ask if i can install this by flashing in cmw(full wipe) read the instruction and imabit confused as im used to flashing in cmw,downloading atm and thanks for your work and for sharing it
[Galaxy S II Android Development] maanz "L":
hello there... so, how do u find it so far? does it cause u bad battery drains? just wanna know yr feedback..;) thanks.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sumpf2:
Yes you can but mount data under mounts and storage in cwm. And dont forget to wipe everything. Then you can flash as you normally do :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rajarshi10:
there's some serious lag in settings... how to fix?

AND OTA NOT WORKING. CWM is not flashing the downloaded zip :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] carlz0206:
is this compatible with siyah 4.0.1? anyone tried dual booting this? primary or secondary?
