First off - thanks to those that have offered some feedback on this, it is very much appreciated. That being said, I know not many have tried this out but I'm getting an update together, so I wanted to ask if anyone has noticed anything else not working quite as they expected or anything that should be changed/added/removed...?

I haven't come across anything I wanna do with the launcher yet, but I have cleaned up a few things in the toggles, Google Now is now working as it should, I fixed another little bug I found when you first turn on wifi after flashing... outside of that is there anything people have found that I should address before updating? No worries if not - like I said not many have tried this out, but I'd like to get all the little issues ironed out before updating if possible.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Animosity:
Great ROM. Very smooth. But is there any way I can get the touchwiz ICS style battery percentage next to the battery icon?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] chjema:
Really I only think what's left is theming lol
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Hmm... is there an image you can share for this? I'm just not sure if you mean the size/font color of the %, or if its the battery icon itself is what needs to change. Shoot me an image and I'll get on it :)

Yeah... the dreaded theming lol. Any themers in the house? I could take a crack at it, but I've technically never really done it before. I suppose now is as good a time as any to learn right? :)

Thanks for the feedback folks - with all the other options out there it makes me appreciate it all the more :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Phattack:
Any way to see emoji?? I know go sms lets you see them.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Hmm... well I'm not sure if I'll be able to do anything about that one, but I'll take a peek at least :)

DSP sometimes works, sometimes not. Rebooting solves it. Anyone else listening to music on their phone nowadays? :) That's all I got... what a great first release :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Thanks :) - so when you say it sometimes doesn't work - you mean changes/adjustments you make don't stick/take? Is there anything in particular more prone to not working, or any pattern to things not working? To be honest I have not messed with that AT ALL - it just seemed like folks thought it handy so I threw it in.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
Settings stick but sometimes while listening to music it's like dsp isn't functioning. I haven't seen any pattern to it, today it worked fine but it didn't want to work at all yesterday. I will have more time this weekend to mess around with it - I'll get back to you if I find any cause/pattern to it.

This may work. I haven't tried it on my wife's Blaze but it worked on my S3. She's on CM10 right now but I think I'm going to move her back to this Rom, the little things are starting to bother her. My only gripe with touchwiz it's that garbage messaging app. Hopefully this works. GoSMS spams her all the time so I want to avoid it. I'll get to trying it this weekend. If anyone wants to try I suggest renaming the stock messaging app with a .bak at the end of it as opposed to deleting it, it's just easier than restoring a nand if something goes wrong.

I know that themeing was suggested, this is my S3 running the wicked Rom by evilart. I'd love to see the theme look similar to this.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dispozable:
The gf finally got fed up with the random reboots and forced me to remove CM off her phone :(

Anyways, I installed this on her phone and am very impressed so far. The boot animation is a nice touch, animations are smooth, touch response is very good, and I like the mods you put into this ROM. The recent apps/task manager combo is very appreciated as well. So far very smooth, I can tell you spent a lot of time on this ROM. The only question I have is how to change the stock 4 icons on the home screen. No biggie, just dont wanna run a different launcher just to replace gmail with contacts. Usually you just long press and you can drag it off. Prolly a TW thing huh? Either way, GREAT ROM!! Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Bradlees:
gmail not working?

I flashed this rom yesterday and everything is good except gmail. It won't open. Just goes to a black screen and then back to the home screen after about a minute. Doesn't matter how I try to open it.

never mind, just uninstall via tb and then reinstalled from market all good
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Sounds good - keep me posted :)

To be honest anything as nice as that is likely beyond me - also most of the UI people engage with stems from the launcher that is being used. I have yet to come across anything nice enough to force into the rom, and have sort of assumed people change that to some preferred 3rd party launcher choice anyway. I will look into the theming idea more though.

Also - looking into the emoji stuff, though I'll need a way to test things once I get done tinkering...

Thanks for the kind words! The task manager/recent app thing is all TW - none of my doing. To change things in the dock, go into the app drawer then hit the menu button. When you select Edit you may be forced into changing the view type to edit, but just go along with it and you can then drag to add/remove things from the dock.

Glad to hear - I haven't experienced any GMail issues, so I'm not sure what the original issue was, but glad to hear you got it figured out :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Hey everybody -

So the emoji thing is going to be a beast if it works at all - I'm trying to wrap my head around what people have done elsewhere to make things work but it's taking a while. I think this will be on the long-term to-do list, as I am pretty sure it's possible I just want to get a better understanding of how it works before I try to tinker it in.

There were also a few things I wanted to pose to the (not-so-large-in-number) masses -

1) There are a number posts involving vold.fstab edits to change what is deemed internal and what is deemed external. Would someone mind replying with some of those options? I know of one, but I believe I saw another one that differed... I would very much like to cover my bases for a handy dandy script utility I plan on implementing, but to mitigate space issues it needs to know where the external sd ACTUALLY is.

2) I noticed w/ the AOSP lockscreen that there is still some circle-lockscreen-esque functionality around the clock area - do we like that? I feel like I can remove it if people find it an undesirable mashup, but if folks like it I would be more than happy to leave it be.

EDIT: Yes I definitely can remove it - I will wait for feedback to see which variant I will include in the update :)

Alright, that's all for now. Keep the feedback coming :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Flowbyte:
adding the xposed installer and tweakbox would be pretty nice :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
True, and the thought has crossed my mind, but I've stayed away from such things for two reasons -

1) That is the main source of fun tinkering/customizing on the blaz3r rom, and out of respect for the others that tinker on the blaze it seems wrong to have another. Going down that path could lead to two different roms that are different in theme alone, and while all the AOSP goodness out there dampens the salience of such things a bit, that just doesn't seem as fun for the lovers-of-options folks out there.

2) I've played around with the xposed/tweakbox setup (while using blaz3r), and a good number of options available in it are already available in Tweaked. It would seem a little redundant to add that in and have it replicate/undo some of the stuff I already worked in.

That being said, are there particular options in tweakbox that you wish were available in Tweaked? I'm always looking for new things to throw in :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Flowbyte:
I guess you are right. Call recording is a nice option but I doubt I'd really use it.

Thanks for the well put together reply.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
No prob :)

Call recording... hmm... ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Flowbyte:
Just for the record I love this ROM. It's my daily driver. I need wifi calling due to patchy reception in my apartment so a ROM like this on which everything works with all the extras added is awesome. Thanks for the hard work.

DSP

I haven't been able to get DSP running at all since last week - it kind of reminds me of when dark knight v8 (or was it v7?) had this problem. I swear the first time I used DSP in dark knight it worked great but I could never get it to function afterwards. I have almost the same thing happening here but it worked for the first 5-7 times (don't remember how many times I listened to it before the issue) and not since. Cache & Davlik wipe didn't help. I'm gonna try to wipe all and reinstall hopefully soon, I have a ton going on this week plus my daughter's birthday party is this weekend. Don't wait for me if you have a new version to put up by any means, people here LOVE flashing :) ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Flowbyte:
Have you tried booting to recovery, wiping all cache and fixing perms? DSP is working OK for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Hmm... well, like I said before - I did nothing to get this incorporated into the rom, just dropped the files in. I was under the impression that it worked fine as-is on 4.0.4-based builds. So what sort of settings are you changing that aren't working? What music player? Output to speaker or headphones? Bluetooth? I'll see if I can't recreate some things and figure out if there's a pattern to it, but I'll need some specifics on how you are doing things so I can try to tease out anything (and I likely won't be able to, but I'd like to give it a shot). No worries if you can't get the info to me anytime soon - sounds like you got your hands full this week :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] putney:
Psyched to have Tweaked back!

Having issues with yelp. Downloaded, it appears on my desktop but not in the app drawer. When searching yelp location services won't work. Checked on google maps and shows my location just fine.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
I called that "bloat" and removed it - you can get the relevant stuffs from the system apps zip in the Tweaked OP, then drop what is needed into the /system/app folder in the emptysysappflasher zip thing (also in the Tweaked OP) and flash in recovery.

Soon there will be another way as well... ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] putney:
Dunno what I did, besides a reboot, but it's working as intended.

Great work sir!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Hey all -

Anyone wanna test something for me? Merwinski and I put together something that folks using UVLH5-based roms could use to get around the whole internal/external sd hooplah, but I wanna see how it works for other folks before posting it. No worries if there's no interest, and this is all the at-your-own-risk blah blah and what not. If any are interested or want more info, feel free to shoot me a PM.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Phattack:
Is anyone else getting awful battery life? I'm getting up to 7 hours max. I closed apps after uses. I make sure to closed background apps. My brightness is at 0%.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Hmm... have you done the usual look-for-battery-draining-culprits search? Is this similar to what you get when running unmodified stock? The kernel usually drives most of the battery life stuffs on modded stock roms, and as this includes just the stock kernel it should get at least comparable battery life to a stock setup.

Are others having battery drain issues? I haven't noticed any really, at least in relation to how things behave stock. About all I did in relation to battery life was throw one or two build.prop edits in that are supposed to aid such things.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Phattack:
I usually get around 11 hours on stock ics. Yeah, I've looked around to see what's draining my battery. It'll drains a lot while it's on sleep
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Does it say what it is that is draining while the screen is off (and is that what you mean when you say its on sleep)?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Phattack:
Like when the phone is not in use or anything or like it's sitting without use.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Flowbyte:
Try GSam battery monitor. It should help find the culprit.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
I wanted to report back. I was able to take out DSP and replace it with awesome beats and it works properly. Might just be an issue with the included dsp...? I've heavily modified this (sounds, launcher-using tw5, awesome beats, 4.2 android keyboard,etc) and am loving it! I can't see too many things that could be tweaked other than the lock screen message. Any chance 2.1 could have a text color chooser for that?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Hmm... Well I may just remove DSP and offer it as an extra for the time being, one you can install through this nifty utility that'll be included in 2.1. Text color chooser for the custom lockscreen message - I will get right on that (shouldn't be too difficult). Thanks for the suggestion and feedback!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
Another suggestion... not trying to be annoying :)...

when customizing signal strength text is there a way to change the 'levels'? Usually a bad signal ranges from -105 to -111 (or worse) which is where the signal icon should show no bars. Currently the 'level 0' is from -100 or less. Is there some way the level range could be user controlled or maybe update the level range so it closely matches how many bars you would have by default? I think the only levels that would need changed is level 0 and level 1 if you can't make that user defined. My suggestion would be level 0 from -105 or worse and level 1 from -105 to -95.

Thanks again for this great rom!!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Hmm... To be honest making the ranges user controlled would be a bit cumbersome - but I've known I needed to adjust ranges on that (based on signal bar behavior for a Verizon phone). I will absolutely change the level 0 and level 1 ranges for 2.1 :)

And fwiw you aren't being annoying - keep the suggestions coming!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Removed for the time being, though like I said for those that want to play with it I have a nifty way for getting such things back :)

EDIT: Although... I may have stumbled on a reason it wasn't working... hard to say though... hmm...

Done :)

Done :)

I'm doing some final tests and preparations (i.e. still tinkering) so let me know if anything else comes up as a possible fix/edit/improvement/etc!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
I'm really getting excited here!! :D:victory:
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Check your PMs :)

EDIT: LOL Or maybe I should :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
Been listening to music a lot over the past week while working and haven't run into any issue. The other day when I was looking for other launchers I saw someone ported a version (I didn't check which one) of TW and called it 'tweakwiz' and I couldn't think of a more appropriate rom for a 'tweakwiz' launcher than this one!

I was also wondering if there was any way to maybe switch out the icons in this rom without using a desktop visualizer app (you lose notification count with the icon that way). Other ideas for the next version: include 4.2 keyboard (I've been using it exclusively since it's release with this rom and others - It works flawlessly with every rom I've tried) and maybe cook in something like voltage control or something like we blaze owners had back in the darkknight rom days. I can't think of much else unless you also bake a custom kernel... that would be sweet!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Interesting... tweakwiz eh? *runs off to google it*

I'll look into the 4.2 keyboard as well - I'm a big fan of that one myself. Switching out icons... the only way I've done that is to change the pngs within the apks themselves, which is how the notification count still shows on the edited mms icon. What desktop visualizer app do you use? I may take a look at it, or at the very least add it to the long-term to-do list.

To be honest things related to kernel stuffs have been in the works for a while, thanks to merwinski. In fact we even discussed something similar to what you suggest here... haven't implemented anything like that yet, but you never know :)

And also - THANK YOU - for both the testing and the feedback. It's really appreciated, and I'm glad the DSP stuff is behaving now!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
Hey if you need someone to test kernel stuffs send me a pm! :victory:
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] johnb380:
I'm always down to test ANYTHING too So if needed keep me in mind...

And I was thinking u may want to use amazing beats instead of dsp manager its much easier to get working since it's wrote for Samsung and cm ROMS and I just think it works better maybe check it if u get a chance dwitherell... And ur awesome man I have always loved ur roms

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Just so people know I'm still hard at work with things...

This shows some nifty color/transparency you can throw on the notification background/statusbar...

And this shows making the statusbar just plain transparent...

Back to tinkering I go :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
I am having an issue with the mms.apk (messaging) when I open a conversation thread in landscape. And only when opening a conversation thread in landscape. If it is opened in portrait orientation and immediately switched to landscape when the thread is opened I am problem free (so it's not an issue of landscape orientation in mms entirely). My phone freezes and after a few seconds mms closes and says 'unfortunately messaging has stopped'. It may very well be something I did as I have heavily modified this rom from its original form - mainly pushing things (system sounds, launcher, 4.2 keyboard, etc). If you think it's something I've done that's cool - it probably is. If you want anything specific (catlog, etc) to see what's causing it (again it's likely me) or if there's an easy fix to it let me know.

I also checked the default launcher and it does the same thing. (just now before posting lol)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Hmm... I see it on my end as well. I'm going to push the full stock one and see if it happens there - then go digging around. Nice find!

Outside of this - I'm getting the last little details (I am way too anal for my own good) ready for 2.1. Shouldn't be much longer :)

EDIT: Ok, stock doesn't do it, so I broke something lol - once I fix this I'm done with 2.1 (unless any other issues come up of course)

EDIT2: OK, all fixed. One or two little things to check and I'll call it good :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] 2vivid:
If everything goes good may have a surprise for 2.1 thanks to dwitherell :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
Oh, man... I think I'm coming down with that nasty F5 virus...:p:cyclops::p:cyclops::p
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Bradlees:
group sms/mms

does this have it? I've been spoiled with group messaging on the aokp roms. I inadvertently posted this question in the dev section...
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Is it there on stock uvlh5? My gut says its not, and if that's the case then this ROM is no different unfortunately.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
Wow... what an improvement!! This rom just flat out flies! Imma have to find an old post or two from merwin and give him some much needed thanks! ...that is of course unless I already maxed out my thanks for the day on you dwitherell...

AnTuTu Cpu Master Free works well with the new kernel. I can set cpu min/max freq, cpu governor, and gpu i/o scheduler with it (and it's free).
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Yes please do! Merwin put in SO MUCH TIME into getting this kernel into the shape you see now, really anyone running a UVLH5-based TW rom should give this kernel a go (link to the kernel can be found in Tweaked OP for those interested). He deserves mad props for this stuff. Beyond the kernel work he's also been great on sharing all kinds of useful info - in fact he helped me figure out how to do a mini-tweaked stock kernel repack that supports custom boot animations (available on tweaktools).

On that note - I hope people have discovered the awesome that is tweaktools...

To truly uninstall it requires a bit more - gimme a little and I'll throw up a zip you can flash using tweaktools. I'll edit this post once it's ready - and in case you change your mind I'll also throw in a re-installer too :)

EDIT: Ok - both are tested and now are up and accessible via tweaktools. Go to CWMMods (5), then Misc (3), and you should see them there. Let me know if there are any problems.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Animosity:
Loving this ROM so far! Quick question, is the scorched governor more towards performance or battery life, or both?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Not to speak for merwin - but sort of both, or at least increased performance without a huge hit on battery.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] LiveFaster:
Thank you so much. Not only have you given us this amazing rom, but you are providing great quick responses. And you took it an extra mile and put together a reinstaller just in case I change my mind. That says a lot, thanks once again man :) fixed my issue flawlessly and with tweak tools took me close to no time

Switched from CM10 to this ROM

CM10 was pretty good, but some unpolished stuff with camera and other issues forced me to come to this ROM. ROM is really good, although not as smooth as CM10 IMHO. Plus, I am missing some CM10 features like QUIET HOURS. I also had some problems with dialing on CM10 (can't hear the other party and they can't hear me), so I am testing with this ROM if this is a ROM issue or the carrier's (unfortunately I suspect the latter).

Some of the options are graded out in Settings/Display/Screen display: unable to change Clock, weather, weather settings and Clock and weather position.

Also, when getting an e-mail I do not have flashing touch buttons (anyway to switch them on?).

Thanks.
