Got some questions.

Hi there

Been using the tweaks for some time now. Think they are awesome!

However, got a couple of questions:

1. If I didn't tweak the kernel the first time I used Pimp My ROM, can I then just flash the .zip -> tweak the kernel stuff -> and then apply/flash the changes? Will it then just be added to my other tweaks I made some weeks ago?

2. I will only be able to remove the tweaks when the .apk comes out, right? I mean, remove some of the tweaks, if I somehow find out that I shouldn't have flashed e.g. WiFi tweaks.

Thanks in advance!

Is it normal that the Aroma is starting very slow? I have waited like 2 minutes... and I am still at "Starting AROMA Installer"

EDIT: I quited after 7 minutes waiting.

EDIT2: tried several times. tried even with to run after a clean install. NOGO.

There's something wrong if thats what happened. As I pimped my rom is less than 3 mins ;)

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
Thanks for your kind words,

1) yes you can reflash pmr and simply add the tweaks you didn't select before, without having to select again those you already have. However Aroma tends to make problems when no option is checked on a selection screen.

2) You can currently only remove all the tweaks automatically (by reflashing your current rom, no data wipe). If you need to remove one specific tweak just remove it manually with a file explorer.

I was able to use PMR on my sola after using the update-binary he posted. I believe it just shuts down the touchscreen as I noticed our glove mode gets turned on in aroma since the ghost selections only happened to things that were near my fingers on the power and volume buttons.

Well... I restored my phone to a before PMR state, and here's the results. It's not like PMR was miraculous, it got better a few petty points, more like nothing. Anyways, my phone is way off the charts, too slow comparing with what it's supposed to perform according to the chart, before and after PMR. I'm running Google Stock Jelly JellyBean.

After a few days my phone started to lag. Something which never _ever_ happened before PMR. I'm rolling back to stock. The problem with this concept is that it offers too much for every phone supposedly but fails to deliver any of it.

How to un-pmr my Xperia S ? Just delete all the scripts in init.d folder under system/etc ?

---------- Post added at 09:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:03 PM ----------

No I understood that :) I know GPU rendering and anything directly hardware related drains battery more. I only turned on the JPG and improved video rendering, allowed battery tweaks and Dalvik tweaks, plus a few more from the init.d page and also added AwesomeBeats.

No explanation for the battery drops though? Or could it be something else? :/

Here's a minor update, mainly to fix the common issues of colour/texture bugs and GUI not scaled to the screen-resolution of the device.

Please download the version that corrresponds to your device's screen-res (ldpi/mdpi/hdpi/xhdpi) and re-read the instructions section of the OP (been updated).

Thanks a lot for your kind words man, I didn't set up a donate link on my account already as I consider having received from the xda community a lot more than what I've brought to it. Maybe I will, in the future.

Plus this project is still at a very early stage, I don't mean to make money profit out of a proof of concept.

Anyway, your intention is very sweet, I appreciate it and it motivates me, and this is already a nice kind of donation you made :good:

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
Is this on the full or lite version ?

Anyway this is a scripting error of mine, will give you a patch asap. Until then you can work-around this by selecting Jelly Bean (aosp-based) in the base-rom selection at the beginning of the script. Just don't install the extra-features and themes that you didn't see in your previous installation (tweaks are the same).

That's weird, need to take a look at that. Did you replace the update-binary-installer as explained in the OP ?

Thanks mate, but sadly there's no team, it's a solo work (except of course for the included features made by the people present in the credits, kudos to them)

Btw, If some familiar-with-aroma-dev wants to help, I'm open to any help offer

PATCH n°2​

Left a typo in last patch so it wouldn't start properly (error in cwm), here is the working version of the patch :

XHDPI : http://d-h.st/ePn

HDPI : http://d-h.st/5xt

MDPI : http://d-h.st/hgc

LDPI : http://d-h.st/HTv

Here is how to apply this patch :

Open pimp my rom's zip (i.e : XHDPI-PIMP_MY_ROM-v1.5.1-by-Androguide.fr.zip)

Navigate to META-INF/com/google/android and delete the file called "aroma-config"

Now take the downloaded patch (which is also called "aroma-config") and copy it in PmR's zip, at the place of the other one that u deleted

Close the zip and flash it

That's it, those installation errors should be gone.

I delayed Lite version release to include this fix, will be available soon today anyway. And of course will be included in tomorrow's update.

yes strange indeed. I've not tried it on PA, only ARHD and MUIU so far.. but there's much mixed views on its effectiveness..

hi quantumtraveller

only the wifi is bad but its cm10 related

1 = Gingerbread, stock rom.

2 = (Kernel Tweaks) | Vsync; Disabled | Misc. Kernel Tweaks; Disable Kernel Error.

3.= (Init.d Scripts) | Touchscrn Responsiveness, Internet Speed, Batt Comsump., Tweak CPU & GPU Tuning, Use Strict Minimum Free Mem, Miscellaneous Ram Tweaks, Install Various init.d smoothness tweaks, Enable main Thunderbolt system_tweak script.

4 = (Build.prop) | Bat saving, Wifi Tweaks, Deeper Sleep, Dialing Time, Internet Speed, Touchscreen Tweaks, Allow Purgeable Assets, Scrolling.

5 = (Enable/Disable) | None

6 = (Multitasking) | OOM Priorities; Mid | Minfree; Mid | ZRAM, 64mb | Kernel sysctl / |

7 = (Networks) | Network; Network Multitasking / |

8 = (GPS) | Phil., Asia.

9 = (Extra) | None

Then when I install, the last log says,

"EXTRA FEATURES"

file_getprop: failed to stat

"/tmp/aroma-data/themestockjb.prop": No such file or directory

That's what happens with or without me choosing any kind of extra
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Androguide.fr:
You can either fix your issue by reflashing your rom, or you can use aroma file-manager to remove the scripts in /system/etc/init.d one by one to spot the one causing this on your device.

All those Aroma-related issues (like for example the one in your log) will be gone by tomorrow with the release of the apk version.

Also, as you're on gingerbread, are you sure you didn't simply disabled boot-animation through PmR ? First boot after flashing might take a little while, try to let it boot a few minutes, even if the bootanimation doesn't display.

Tnx for fantastic new utility. Been using for a few weeks on top of CM10 nightlies on my GNote (N7000).

I'm too cautious to hit the 'all tweaks' option, so each time I have to flash pmr (practically daily on top of nightlies... or is that nightly ;) I have to scroll through each screen and choose what I want. Any chance to 'save selections'?

Being able to reload my selections at the start will save me a load of time.
