DSA seems like a hummingbird on amphetamines...srsly, I can`t flash as fast as he`s pumping out releases oO

Originaly I just wanted to drop in and give feedback to 8.5, which I flashed just yesterday. I was quite astonished to see so many ppl reporting problems with this release, since I didn't notice a single bug, inverted apps are complete and up to date, speed is blazing fast. Also I don`t have any problems with menus or apps (f.e. using poweramp with no problems whatsoever).
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DSA:
Lol...just trying to keep my users happy!

It's a weird one with 8.5...I had only one of the issues mentioned. ...but I would rather have a rom released that everyone can use

My roms are about stability...I let myself and the Rom name down with 8.5...won't be happening again though ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] buster041284:
the work u do u don't let anybody down pal
[Galaxy S III Android Development] slaphead20:
Shut up putting yourself down or I will go to the local RSPCA ....get a litter of kittens and shove them down your pants, that really will bring tears to your eyes! :p

So many people have been downloading the new rom/accessing the website it has crashed the website

Currently being investigated

EDIT:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Dwaalspoor98:
8.5.1 seems to work fine, thanks :)

One note: You have disabled logcat, please reconsider this. Basically android is a Linux system which logs, never seen logging disabled on a Linux system :s.

Again thanks for the grat ROM!

[Galaxy S III Android Development] DSA:
so just enable it again

[Galaxy S III Android Development] DSA:
my internet just died so the 93% completed download has to be started again...ive had enough for today so im going out and it wont be online until tonight
[Galaxy S III Android Development] asc366:
No worries.. can imagine ;) perhaps somebody who has succesfully downloaded the rom already can share it?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Dwaalspoor98:
i have removed the logcat live line from build.prop en rebooted the phone, I still get:

Any idea how to enable it properly?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xanthrax:

Nasty.. If you google the filename (XXDLJ4 CodecROM 8.5.1 S.E by DSA.zip), google picks it up as uploaded on devhost.. it's just devhost that crushed their nginx config :-/

EDIT: Oh, now they're really down, connection refused. Somebody must be fixing something ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xanthrax:
damn ... 299 mb and it`s down ...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] asc366:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] asc366:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] PilgrimToHyperion:
Downloading this now to try it for the first time. Been running the Omega roms and just feel like something else for a change. Looks solid. :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xanthrax:
wellcome ! the Agency is wide open ! :cool:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DSA:
Im gonna update the op tomorrow to include the latest mods

8.5.2 will be a small update

Currently have the new aosp 4.2 keyboard included, looking at the 4.2 gallery/camera too (currently causing fc taking photos)

Going to look at the animations again too... I'm not a big fan, but its another choice for the user

Also, if i have time I will split the volume keys/extended power menu etc mods up so each one can be chosen individually

I also want to put the aosp clock back in,so i will look at the 4.1.2 framework at some point
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xanthrax:
shhhh ... quiet ! ... we are flashing here ... :cool:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] asc366:
Done flashing here -- twice (to make sure I had the right Aroma settings) (full wipe both times)

After first flash I somehow didn't get the "reboot device now" tickbox but landed straight back into CWM touch recovery. Oh well, no harm done, second time, no problem.

As I prefer Holo, I noticed that there's an outdated holo in the ROM (1.0.4 vs 1.0.5), but that's not really a big issue.

Also, there's a small typo: EMP vs EPM, in the aroma descriptions :)

So, two minor things, no biggies. Will test more!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] rowlers:
Your certainly knocking the updates out!

downloading, but will prob wait until tomorrow to flash.

Hows the job hunting going?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Flastroon:
Thanks Agent for this wonderful ROM :) , this is what i was searching for a mix between Samsung-Google AOSP ,cheers mate !

I'm facing a force close issue in google search voice , google now is working well but when i pess the microfone button it works well for 5 seconds an then fc , if you could fix it it will be great :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xanthrax:
No such problems here mate! Tested for 1 min .

Full wipe?

Factory reset, wipe cache data system dalvik .

Everything I tried is ok, Bluetooth stuff not yet though, the GPS is damm strong, I can navigate from my bed, indoors .

Chrome works better then stock, has been a while since I haven't use it .

The mods from OTA stopped working when tried to download but I personaly don't use it, just tried and I think is due to servers connection .

Good job Master Agent

*****

Right now I'm trying to push some personal applications into system/app, as usual to save some space but not all of them are working, there is a trick with the permissions

Could you Master guide me or suggest me something?

I'm addicted to the inverted gapps and I will quit this Rom as soon as you'll drop them down.

Until then I'm your faithful user! :beer:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] slaphead20:
Yay, up and running, nice work DSA .........loving it, nice to have inverted gapps, all round this pretty much sums up my perfect room in look and style and tweakiness! Nice work :thumbup::D:thumbup:

i think aroma 2.56 stops when the screen is touched when not selecting anything...i.e if you go press reboot when the flashing procedure is finished and accidentally press it twice...it will go back to the beginning of the boot menu...im assuming amarrulz knows and is doing a fix

I totally forgot about Holo...its updated for the next version

still nothing yet fella, applied for another 17 and not heard anything yet :(

ok, will have a look

what apps are you pushing to system/app dude?

Thanks man, good to hear this version is working properly :victory::good:

lol, welcome to the Darkside of Android :cool:

Android Police claim they have fixed 4.2 camera/gallery for non-nexus devices...read note at bottom of http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/1...gallery-app-with-new-ui-editing-photo-sphere/ in case this helps.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DSA:
lovely, thanks fella :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] asc366:
That looks like a very nice camera update!

Any idea what would happen if I just flash it on 8.5.1 using CWM ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DSA:
it very nice, some great new features...

that and the new 4.2 keyboard are a welcome addition - already added and tested
[Galaxy S III Android Development] asc366:
Just flashed the 4.2 picture-app.. cleared dalvik and fixed permissions. lets give this a testdrive.

EDIT: Okay.. it works, but I need a steady hand to create good pictures :) I do have two camera-icons now and they both seem to work. So, that must mean they have different names and therfor can exist next to eachother, right?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lampz:
can we send large of sms with this rom like CM10?with out limitation on sending sms to large groups of recipients too?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DSA:
One will be the camera you already had...the way I will do it in the next release is to decide if you want the gallery and camera from the nexus, if you do then you can bypass the other galleries and cameras. .it won't work if you mix n match

Yep
[Galaxy S III Android Development] asc366:
Well, it DOES work, but having both is not really supposed to :) I'll wait for 8.5.2! :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lampz:
Im having this error on omega rom when sending large content of sms ..

I hope sending large sms is allowed in this rom.. theres no limitation on sending sms..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xanthrax:
Error! ?! Is this about error :banghead:

Why don't you just tap 'allow' ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lampz:
yeah your right tap and allow.....tap every permission? like a hundred times? waiting for it to popup and tap?just want to know how to bypass this.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xanthrax:
Ok, I don't know how to bypass that, maybe isn't possible, is just a normal warning not an error ... and I just sent in the same time the same message to 7 people and I've got no warning pop-up .
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lampz:
try to send a 4 large SMS content conversation to a large number of recipient over a hundred sir.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] asc366:
Yep, me, that's default ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xanthrax:
Pfff ... I quit!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lampz:
i think i found a fix..

but i dont know how to apply it here =))

Working good, but i have 3 issues.

1. In OTA settings the option to download all the aroma files is never there.

2. I can not send mms.

3. I can not delete anything from the externel sdcard. It is inly working with root explorer. With other file explorer it is not working.

The first issue us no prob, but the issue with the mms app is bad, cause i send often large sms or mms. Is there an option to get the original mms apk or an fix?

I've got other "bugs" though! I don't have the extended power menu and neither do I have the option to download any mods from the ota menu! Let's hope someone advises us! ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] asc366:
powermenu is in aroma... epm its called!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] asc366:
btw... camera for 4.2 gave me two crashes of the rom today so flashing it over codecrom is tricky ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DSA:
i cant replicate this

did you actually choose extended power menu in aroma?

OTA - If you had read the thread, you would have seen that i have had to pull everything from the website to get it up and running again due to a dispute with my hosts and im in the process of finding a new website host

I have no idea about this one, but after flashing CodecROM and installing Facebook from playstore, I can't sync photo's. If I install stock (or, for example UltimaROM) I am presented with an option to sync facebook photo's. It seems farfetched, but could this be ROM-related somehow?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DSA:
download, extract and move the attached file to system/app with a root explorer

SNS file - not a cwm flashable zip
[Galaxy S III Android Development] asc366:
Ah! Social Network Sync! Particular reason for not including it by default? Not many people use it?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DSA:
yeah, not a popular apk...it will be in the next rom as a default though...

Is it me or the stock status bar clock just smaller in 8.5.1?
