Hey Guys and Gals. Okay, I just noticed this today when trying to watch The Avengers after using the T-Mo free download sneaky sly-boots buildprop trick. If I turn my WIFI off while trying to play it the video is crazy choppy. No audio lag. Just video. I was trying to watch during my lunch break and I was out of range of the office WIFI so I toggled it off to save a little juice. When I got home I tried to play it again and it worked flawlessly... but I was connected to my home WIFI. I found that curious so during the movie I toggled it off again and low and behold, choppy video. One would think with all of the horsepower this phone has it would be able to handle HD movie playback without packet streaming from WIFI. I haven't seen any mention of it on here anywhere. Is this an annoyance that will be fixed with Jelly Bean or is this just how it is with this phone? Is TWiz murdering playback? Honestly I haven't tried it with any JB Rom other than Drew's 3.5, but playback simply doesn't work on that rom's current version. I tried it on just bone stock rooted and on Wanam.

So has anyone else experienced this or have tips?

Also I downloaded MX and Mobo to see if their hw acceleration was better but got the same results.

WonderDroid Gurus activate! Form of... Tips and/or knowledge? Idk. :D
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kinghorsey:
Hardware specs don't enter into streaming much. Its choppy likely because the network is congested.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] OmRomRom:
Well alright then. I guess my next question is if it is the network shouldn't it not happen if I shut off data and WiFi? If it is a network only issue then shutting off data should help right?

Hi! Srry for create a new thread, but a few months ago, i did tutorial posted here, which explains how to change internal memory to a partition ext, but i can't find this tutorial anymore. Anyone knows how to do this? Or where i can find this tutorial?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] highonfire77:
i strongly believe the directions i need our on here somewhere but i just cant find my exact situation.i apologize if im causing clutter in the forum. with that said if i could get help on how to install the correct devil kernel it would be greatly appreciated. i am still learning. so im running jb build 3 on the verizon fascinate. im not sure if and what kernel i have now. all i know is i have the cm7 recovery and flashed the build 3 rom. i keep reading about how build 3 along with devil 1.2.1 or 1.5? i think makes it run even better. so what devil kernel is the right choice for my set up and how do i install it correctly?....oh and where would i find the link? sorry for probably asking such a rookie question.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schilly:
I am running the latest AOKP with Devil 1.6.0, which is the latest kernel I believe? Things change so fast here! Here's a link to the page for downloading the kernel, I would recommend following DroidStyle guide over in the General forum as you install your kernel. Good Luck! http://rootaxbox.no-ip.org/derteufel/jellybean/Fascinate/ choose the one that has the date of 9/28 and number 160 as the link.

Very cool. Thanks for the needed help!
[Motorola Droid X2] jkingaround:
Hey guys. Recently rooted my DX2 that was on the latest 2.3.5 update and flashed Eclipse. I love it and its amazing but I want to try other ROMs that have much more custom options, etc. However, I was wondering what the best way to go about this is. I know how to make nandroid backups and have one with eclipse as well as one from right after i rooted.

what's the best way to switch between these without losing data etc?
[Motorola Droid X2] GoClifGo05:
Ok well the nandroid is good but all the other ROMs for the X2 are based on 2.3.4. You will need to sbf down and unfortunately there is no way around this. If you ever wanna come back to eclipse though just take the 2.3.5 ota, root and restore your backup. The same process can be done for the ROM's on 2.3.4. Install one, make a backup so if you ever want to come back to it you can just restore the nandroid. Use Titanium Backup to backup apps so you can just restore them on the other ROMs. Don't back up system data though because it will screw up other ROMs.
[Motorola Droid X2] jkingaround:
if i have a backup of stock rooted i can just boot into recovery and restore using the backup? also, is there an up to date guide on how to rename them.

as for the 2.3.4 ROM backups, i'd have to be on 2.3.4 in order to restore them?
[Motorola Droid X2] GoClifGo05:
Yea you can restore the stock rooted if you want. To rename them just use a file explorer or something similar and rename to whatever you want. Don't add spaces though or it will screw it up.

And yea you don't wan't to restore a backup of a different version of android. I don't know definitively that it will not work, but it's just a bad idea in general.
[Motorola Droid X2] jkingaround:
What gets erased when I apply an update? My backups are on my external sd card so they'll overwrite the internal correct?
[Motorola Droid X2] metaphysicalgx2:
Ive had my internal reserved for mostly just mp3s (and recently photography books and vids), and it still hasnt been erased through months of data wipes and sbfs.. App data can be backed up with titanium backup pro and batch restored. Google backs up contacts, wifi settings, wallpaper sometimes. If using a non stock launcher, your home screen setup and setting can be transfered btw roms. Its just system data and customizations that you need to do for the new rom and thats the fun part. I skipped some details of course but Android is a really efficient system.
[Motorola Droid X2] jkingaround:
thanks for the reply. it looks like the /system and /data folder are the ones that get overwritten so everything else stays untouched from what i can tell.

i tried restoring an old backup i made and got stuck at checkin_mot.db file.. pulled the battery, factory reset, restored latest eclipse backup. not sure what went wrong or if i just wasn't patient enough lol.
[Motorola Droid X2] metaphysicalgx2:
I had trouble with a cm7 backup freezing at the same spot..had to delete it. The cm9 backup i tried afterwards restored fine and pretty fast.
[Motorola Droid X2] Soapy77:
The biggest issue when coming from Eclipse, is the kernel. You cannot use a nandroid backup to switch between a 2.3.4 and a 2.3.5 rom. The nandroid cannot backup the kernel due to our ****ty locked bootloader.

So the only way you can go to another rom is to SBF back to 2.3.4 then root, and flash a new one. And even then a nandroid of Eclipse is worthless without it's kernel.

So no, there is no easier way. Other than to avoid eclipse like the plague, and stick with 2.3.4 roms.

Please let me know if I'm a complete retard here, but this has been my experience for the last year and a half.
[Motorola Droid X2] GoClifGo05:
Well before JB CM10 came out I'd say Eclipse was the most stable and best DD... Lol "avoiding it like the plague" is a bit overboard. But otherwise you are correct. To go to any other ROM it's time to SBF.
[Motorola Droid X2] jkingaround:
I definitely love the skin and feel of eclipse but I would like some more flexibility in terms of options, without overloading the overall device and making it sluggish again like stock.

Are any of the CM versions entirely stable and does everything work? Or they all have force close/non working parts?
[Motorola Droid X2] GoClifGo05:
Cm7 is pretty stable. The ones with the most bugs would be the CM9 based roms. CM10 JB is incredibly stable for the most part. You would never know it is an alpha. It runs very smoothly. There are problems installing some apps from gplay until alpha 2 is released but if you have titanium backups of your apps you can restore most if not all of them. It's only a work around but its good for now. I'm using CM10 as my daily driver (came from Eclipse.)
[Motorola Droid X2] jkingaround:
that sounds promising. is it specific to the x2 in regards to the soft buttons? (as we already have hard buttons and the baked in ones dont really make sense)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Necrosan:
It's been a while since I've released anything neat for the Android scene and I felt it was time to do something unique. Without further ado, I present to you something that has never been ported before:

Flyme OS 1.0.5

Notes:

This ROM is based on the OS for the Meizu MX phone.

It was a major undertaking getting it ported over.

I am not 100% sure on what is all 'broken' so please leave feedback so we all can address the issues as they come.

Thanks goes out to:

frogor - Thank you so much for your guidance, I doubt I would have this as far as it is without your help.

chris41g - Our base ROM provider, thank you so much for compiling the entirety of Android for me to get us those 2 methods,

|0xD34D| - For being a good sport and assisting where he could. Thanks.

Working:

Phone, SMS, MMS, Data, Camera, Internal/External Storage

Not Working:

Wimax, Settings.apk option for "Network", Call recording, SoundRecorder.apk force close (Still working on this, call recording uses SoundRecorder.apk)

Issues:

-Still reverse engineering the nativeCreateShare and nativeMmap methods. Lockscreen won't work correctly until they've been figured out
-Web browser crashing when video played (I believe only HTML5 content) (Will issue a fix for this asap)
-Need to center launcher selected-pane indicator
-Scrolling left in Music.apk when the record is displayed causes force close
-We are using CM9 Camera/Galley - Stock Flyme Camera app has lots of native calls. Going to see if I can port some in from the CM camera so we can use it - I don't have my hopes up though.

Instructions:

Wipe your poopy /data partition before installing.

Install through a safe recovery (EL29 verified working)

Download FlymeOS_SPH-D710_v105_u1.zip (10/3/12)

Enjoy and keep the 420 burning.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Necrosan:

-Throttle Service Removed
-Removed Mstore.apk & MzCloudService.apk as they were wasting precious CPU cycles (And are useless to us without a legitimate Meizu serial number)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] juggalo1300:
Looks interesting gonna have to give this a try soon.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] abadasstanker69:
This looks awesome! Never even heard of it...anyone test this yet?

Edit: FIRST! Lol sorry. Couldn't resist
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] revamper:
looks neat!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris41g:
Looks good.. i know a lot of work went into this... a lot...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ericvbp21:
wow..a rom like this..i will run as a daily if it makes calls and wimax works..lol.too clean
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ubuntunerd:
im about to try it im itching for something new !!! i will report back
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] alongmire22:
yuppp

cant wait to try this,keep up the good work!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrick_1:
Niiiiiice!!! Love it when our devs flip things up!!!:thumbup::thumbup:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] manup456:
Did a fresh install using el26 recovery no boot just Meizu boot, but I have the cwm6 recovery you think it would be safe to flash back to a booting rom to try the process over? Or just use odin and get a rom booting with that fine just a pain, but rather do that than brick my joint.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Necrosan:
I use the EL29 CWM directboot available from chris41g site.

Did you remember to wipe your /data?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] im0rtalz:
You finally got the keyboard working?!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Necrosan:
Just took a week to figure it out ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ubuntunerd:
same here i wiped all im stock on an endless boot loop :cyclops:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] manup456:
@Necrosan

Oh for sure I did just used el26 I have direct boot el29 as well just thought el26 would be fine, getting back to a bootable rom and going to try with the direct boot to see if that makes a difference. I don't think it will, but ill give it a try to see.

NOTE: I don't see mention of gapps are they needed for this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Necrosan:
Looking into this. I think you guys may need to use chris newer stuff. After flashing it to get out of the boot loop boot recovery and flash again. (A newer, safer recovery is included in the kernel that is included)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] F3L1XZS:
Wow, when I heard about the Meizu MX a few months back, I thought it was pretty badass. Really glad you guys ported this! Will definitely give this a try!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ubuntunerd:
im using that one still boot looping :crying:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] manup456:
Okay that was what I had asked the first time just didn't want to brick i'll just wipe cache and dalvik flash and see.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Necrosan:
At a loss for why it's not working - you guys got logcat handy?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TheDudeAbides:
Whoa. Bad. Ass.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] manup456:
Just tried a fresh install with chris recovery nothing still looping i'll try el29 last to see if not I think we have a issue
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Necrosan:
Would love a look at your logcat.

I just reflashed it (albeit from the built in recovery in the kernel) and it's not looping on me.

Trying to sort out what is going on now. Stay tuned.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] manup456:
Yeah will do on this last flash with el29 then i'll paste bin and post for you
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] traskers:
This. Is. Awesome.

Downloading now. Can't wait.

What kernel is included? Something new or AOSP?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Necrosan:
Something is up. Looking into it and temporarily removing download. Will post when fixed.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CyberpodS2:
Ok so if your able to flash it from the included kernel why not make a flashable version of that?? We can just install that first...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ubuntunerd:
http://pastebin.com/5KbR99r4 this is from recovery log

im about to do adb log cat it may take me a few minutes i need to boot my ubuntu pc
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Necrosan:
Was a stupid issue - I should have tested wiping my own data ;)

Uploading shortly - I'll post when the link is up.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ubuntunerd:
im getting bad zip installation aborted
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjs2011:
So don't mind me asking, but what makes this Rom cool?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick4mitch:
If you have to ask then its not for you ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjs2011:
Come on! Really though, what kind of features does it all have?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ubuntunerd:
that is something new for us to try lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick4mitch:
To me it looks really clean and I'm all for that, let's hope it gets sorted it out and works, thumbs up to the OP ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Necrosan:
All fixed, folks. Redownload and enjoy!

Time to eat some tacos :)

Sorry to anyone that wasted their bandwidth before!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
Wow. Necrosan is a name I haven't seen since the Sprint hot spot app hack. Awesome to have you back bringing sweetness for this phone. I'm looking forward to trying this when the initial kinks are sorted out.

Big thanks man.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ubuntunerd:
:laugh: ok im eating chalupas right now lol it booted bout to check it out !!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
very cool, me likey options :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ubuntunerd:
Gps works good got a lock within seconds navigation is on point too root explorer fc. A few screen glitches but over all is pretty awesome is a lot like miui. Awesome work thanks for bringing this to us is much appreciated
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
Thanks for bringing us something new. I had to look up Meizu MX to even see what it was. Looks like a cool phone and nice looking OS.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] felibon:
OK so somebody is gonna ask so let it be me.... lol does headjack audio work at full volume?

Clean looking ROM btw
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] abadasstanker69:
Delete
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Necrosan:
That is something I noticed. Looking into this also.

What I do to ensure I receive full volume is turn the volume up all the way before plugging my headphone cable in.

Otherwise if you turn it down you can't turn it back up and have to unplug/replug the cable.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Cricket Droid:
I can haz meizu mx os? Thank you Necroscan for the option.

Now that it's on here, this is amazing. Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] timmetal6669:
This is truly cool. Someone sent me a pm a fewmonths ago with information about how to port this and i seriously considered doing it, but have only this phone and can't risk it. But I'm stoked to see that Chris 41g and necroscan are on the case! I'm gonna watch how this goes! Great job gentlemen!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] traskers:
Do you want bug reports or not? Just found some little things so fat with it. Loving it though. Finally, my phone looks clean!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Necrosan:
Yup, would love bug reports.

Throw em in a CODE tag if you could or link me to the relevant pastebin of the logcat + instructions of how to reproduce.

Wow this is a sexy rom, Very nice work! good job porting it bro, I look forward to future developement! ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elliwigy:
running smooth.. also wifi speeds seem much better..not sure how to take screenshot tho? lol either way im in phx and have no 4g.. sd card is a little eh.. but everything i need i can flash through recovery if i need to.. i made a short screencast but havent uploaded it.. batt seems good off the start and havent had any major issues thus far.. kind of missing the app drawer but like miui finally found the play store in the folder lol. oh and any idea where to get themes? i tried a search but no luck and cant use anything meizu since cant verify serial number..

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] traskers:
Couple of things so far.

Open up calendar on month view and all the dates are un aligned.

Also, in the power button menu what is the icon with the signal bars and the power icon?

Battery life hasn't been spectacular so far, but I don't have any actual stats :P

Can I use chris' aosp kernel or does this use something else altogether?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Necrosan:
Noticed that with the calendar - will need to be modified for our screen size.

Looks to me like that button in the power menu disables the radio. (nice find, I didn't even notice this until you mentioned it)

This is already using chris' aosp kernel - although any replacement AOSP kernel should be fine.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] traskers:
Ah okay. Just wasn't sure about the kernel, if I could try his for battery life but if it's the same.. Haha. Still running it though!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Necrosan:
Battery life hasn't been that bad for me - I'll poke through logcat and see if I can find anything that is causing more-than-desirable consumption.

I am getting about 9-12 hours I'd say with some light browsing & pandora usage.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] traskers:
I just don't think that my screen on time has been very long. Hard to tell though :P

Also, when battery hits 19% the dialog says "battery is low than 20%" rather than lower. Just letting you know!

Screen brightness at the lowest setting only goes to 47% I believe?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] felibon:
Bad. Ass. Rom. Nough said. Finally gave this a shot. Very clean and smooth.

On to the bugs:

1. YouTube fc when I clicked on a preview for a game on the play store. Also tryed YouTube in the browser and it fced as well.

2. Changing LCD density causes lock screen glitch out and only cover part of the screen. I have it set to 190 btw. I'll post a screen shot.

Also the volume is over all controlled by the settings in sound. You can't say make Pandora volume loud and ring tone low volume.

Oh by the way. To take a screen shot hold power and home together for a couple of seconds.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Blars1206:
Looks awesome. Can't wait for it to be completely stable. Thanks for sharing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] *Luke*:
Thanks a ton for your hard work on this!

I have a question, and if the answer is no, it won't upset me in the slightest, but I'm just curious:

Any shot at the included app center ever working? For themes and such?

Also, for those looking for a launcher substitute that will allow you to keep that awesome status bar, launcher pro works
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Necrosan:
1 - Will fix the youtube crashes ASAP - I know what's causing them.

2 - Yep - the lockscreen is hardcoded to certain density. I actually had to figure out how to edit this before releasing as it looked rather bad not adjusted correctly. You need to use apktool to decompile framework-res.apk and edit res/values/dimens.xml and change the keyguard_screen_height value. You'll need to increase it or decrease it depending on what you set your density to. Something I've noticed also is that the passcode lockscreen is slightly out of place - the exact same amount I had to adjust keyguard_screen_height initially to make fit our default density. Still trying to track down which setting controls this.

Also going to take a look at the volume stuff as it is kind of weird the way it acts right now - especially if you use the headphone jack.

Nice tip about the screenshots - learn more every day about this ROM.

Don't think it's possible as the store actually does a check to verify your serial number is valid - and we don't have one for obvious reasons.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] felibon:
I'll give the density a try but it may be a little too advanced for me lol

Glad to help get this rom on stable grounds.
