Got CM11

Hi I'm very glad to have CM11!

The Release from NewMaclaw is very good
[Galaxy Ace II General] forbidden8:
Yeah, i remember when bought this phone, we didn't have any custom rom's. Now i'm glad to see all these CM builds. Thx to all great developers that we have. For such a low end device have very good development.
[Galaxy Ace II General] tofueatsbread:
im pretty sure we were mid-ranged.. :/

when i found xda there was only kyrillos v5 and the few other ported/modded stock xD
[Galaxy Ace II General] forbidden8:
Mid-range? Now mid-ranget devices are devices like MotoG, S2, Optimus L9 2, S4 mini, One mini etc. Our is low from where you looking at. But most important is that development goes pretty good.
[Galaxy Ace II General] Rox:
You cant compare mid range from 2012 with mid range of 2014...
[Galaxy Ace II General] tofueatsbread:
obviously :P ^.^
[Galaxy Ace II General] forbidden8:
No compare here. After time mid-range goes to low. Maybe before two years Ace2 was mid-range, but now is not. Just like S2 for example. What range is? High, mid or low?
[Galaxy Ace II General] hackuletz16:
Please try it , and tell us the results

---------- Post added at 01:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:53 AM ----------

For me it is high end,, dual core with 1.2 ghz,, it will depend on your own tweaks
[Galaxy Ace II General] tofueatsbread:
So i OC a phone to 2GHz and call it high end? Dont forget about GPU and such. OC to 1.2GHz doesnt 'increase' performance of phone.

how to root android 4.4.4 kitkat novathor cm11

Hi mates, I've been looking into this thread and I have no found any information about how to root 4.4.4 kitkat novathor CM11. The case is that I flashed to 4.4.4 KK from 4.1.2 JB and everything was fine less the f%%% R of roaming. I have to say that I get data connection but appears always the R, because my company brand is crap and use antennas from other companies. Thus I found some useful guide to sort it out but I can't change any document on my phone from the Root Explorer to get rid of "R". Do you mind helping me? Thanks a lot!

Pd: CM11 comes with a #superuser but I've been trying so many times and I could not sort it out....

Some people has detected high battery consumption on CM11 (e.g., http://forums.androidcentral.com/google-nexus-4/354484-cm11-very-fast-battery-drain.html ). Can you confirm that? Many people is thinking about going to CM11, but we are still on CM10 to preserve how battery time.

hey, question.

I have a GT-I8160, want to install games on the sd card.

Not move them to sd, but install on sd, i like to do it with sideloading, dont know if it is an option.

I can move the games to sd in the system, but the phone memory is too small to even install the games i want. Like gta sa.

The phone is rooted.
[Galaxy Ace II General] er_ozan:

U can try ' App2sd ' in google play... To move from phone memory to sd memory...

That is really dumb. My other android phone did it. Just a setting. But on a samsung galaxy, it is not an option as far as i can see. How stupid is that. The phone only has like 800mb free.

And if you fill that all up, you dont have any memory left. (as in RAM)

What a dumb system. My other phone had the same problem, but i could just install to the sd card.

I thauhgt, maby with root, i can change that.

Are there different GT-I8160?

From german samsung website it states it has only around 2,1 GB of internal storage.

http://www.samsung.com/de/consumer/mobile-device/mobilephones/smartphones/GT-I8160OKADBT-spec

But why should XSE (Region Indonesia?) and DBT (Germany) have different memory?

I have a non branded GT-I8160P onyx black so GT-I8160OKPDBT, that one is with NFC (P vs. A in product key) and also have only 2,1 GB memory.

Is it ok to flash a pre-rooted stock Rom on a network locked phone or MUST my phone be unlocked first? I was on XXLK3 firmware and I've successfully flashed(using Odin) two upgrades XXLK6 and XXLK7. I would really like to flash the XXLK7 pre-rooted stock Rom now, is it ok to do so on my locked phone?
[Galaxy Ace II General] xenex1:
The proper answer I'm going to give is I'm not sure, but my original baseband was I8160XXLK6 and csc I8160O2ULK1 (O2 UK carrier) and I flashed my pre-rooted ROM I8160XXLK7 which I think is non carrier specific, went well for me and my phone works as expected, although I lost the dull O2 boot screen and got a much nicer Samsung one :D

It also asks me to confirm my carrier after the first boot when the flash is finished.

Anyone else here know about locked network phones to confirm if this is ok or not?
