Re: [ROM][2/9] CleanROM ACE 4.5 -★| Unrivaled Performance Stability! | The Clean Way!

Any enhancements to the Rom that haven't been mentioned i.e. besides speed, or fluidity of the Rom? What I mean is did the new base bring anything interesting I haven't read about in the op or the the thread? I HAVE read everything I could, just have 4.0.5 set up so excellent with compatible mods like call recording, lock screen, etc. Just curious, as I tested the beta it was VERY smooth but I didn't see many changes really. Just felt....real smooth.. like all Scott's build! Any feedback would be great guys, i'm really just stuck on how perfect 4.0.5 is running for me.

---------- Post added at 12:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:26 AM ----------

Haha +1 to that!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mutantblack:
If you are happy with 4.0.5, then by all mean stay with it. I don't know 4.0.5, but I tested out 4.2.5 and not a whole lot of changes other than new aroma installer. The rom does feels like super smooth. Smoother than any other cleanrom. May be Scott put in some tricks to fool everybody thinks the rom is faster. lol

Re: [ROM][2/9] CleanROM ACE 4.5 -★| Unrivaled Performance Stability! | The Clean Way!

It's CleanROM. Visually your not going to see any differences. Your not going to find any themeing or mods except for things like 5x6 launcher, etc... It's basically the stock rom on steroids. Smoother, faster, better battery life, less bloat and the choice to install the things you want using the Aroma installer. It seems a little smoother than the previous build and the battery life seems to be great but I wouldn't expect anything less from Scott. I've used his roms for a long time and there always top of the line. Basically, if your like me and need to have the latest and greatest I'd say flash it. If not and you have everything set up and running how you like then I'd say stay where your at.

Thank you!

Post it!

Fair enough...

Yeah, from my own server! WTF is wrong with people man?

Hey man, I am not an English teacher, I am a ROM developer :p

Faster... I pulled out all the stops on this one!

I also will have to give some credit to Samsung as they helped me a little too... They made a messy ROM with a good base, and I just cleaned it up and Tuned it.

Actually....

I didint want to say I fixed it but yes...

What I did was this... I pulled the WiFi files from each Carrier, Canada, AT&T, VZW, TMobile, GT-N7105 and placed them in the carrier files.

So when you flash the ROM and select the carrier it copies over your carriers WiFi files! Ingenious hey? Should have thought of that one a long time ago!

But yes, i did not advertise it because I was unsure if it would fix the issue or not.

I do lots of things under the hood that I dont speak of and wait to see if anyone notices ;)

Your Welcome!

Good deal!

There are not new toys if thats what you mean, besides what I listed in the Aroma installer.

This build was to clean up the File System even more, focus on overall performance, and increase the user experience through a more fluid interface.

And give me a chance to start fresh so I can re-group, think, plan, and do it all over again with all the knowledge I have gained since Version 1.0. Plus I threw in a couple little goodies as far as apps but those can be downloaded on the Market as well.

From the feedback I have seen, I think I did good :D :angel:

If it feels faster, feels smoother...

Its faster and smoother :angel:

You can trick what your eye sees and your brain calculates.

Meh, I think 4.5 is worth the jump from 4.0.5. But thats just me.

Anyone has this problem?

When I was on 4.2.5, testing GPS status with various apps, they all show that I have 20+ satelittes in view and managed to lock 10+ (which was of coz awesome!). However, when I on Map, although the phone stated Location Set By GPS, nth reflect on Map. Instead, it stated location currently unavailable.

Then, I clean installed 4.5, hoping that whatever issue will go away. However, this issue still persist. Anyone know what happened?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] brittoking:
Re: [ROM][2/9] CleanROM ACE 4.5 -★| Unrivaled Performance Stability! | The Clean Way!

So on 4.0.5, the beta, and now the amazingly smooth 4.5, I've had the same problem. I installed the Samsung photo editor thru the aroma installer but I also had paper artist installed and when I go to gallery and try and edit a photo the only option is paper artist?? Which is NOT a "real" photo editing app. I deleted that app, cleared the galleries info (data and cache and rebooted) tried to edit a photo and paper artist option is still an option but a dead link. So I started from scratch, wiped everything, and reinstalled without the paper artist this time. Still no luck and no way to edit photos from the gallery app for me? Anything I'm missing guys/gals/always knowledgeable hackers? Thanks in advance for helping with my long winded question.

---------- Post added at 05:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:20 AM ----------

Have you tried the trick mentioned in this thread a couple times about going back to stock, opening maps getting a lock, and then flashing back to clean Rom and the lock should then stick for good?

Re: [ROM][2/9] CleanROM ACE 4.5 -★| Unrivaled Performance Stability! | The Clean Way!

Re: [ROM][2/9] CleanROM ACE 4.5 -★| Unrivaled Performance Stability! | The Clean Way!

Are you opposed to sharing the picture, then choosing photo editor...that's how I access it since paper artist is worse than useless.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Canadoc:
I had this same problem when using earlier version of this ROM and it went away when flashing my Canadian stock CSC file. I suspect there is some piece of code in the CSC that enables or disables the ability to have photoeditor as an option.

---------- Post added at 09:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:26 AM ----------

When I click edit, my choices are paper artist or photo editor.

Same as what Samsung shows on their online video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBvwgA9E3GE&list=PLhpbZcOKxtO1kBNqBJxmsMVHlmXCBe8Ob see at 1:32 seconds.

Of course I am using the stock new Canadian Rom that is rooted, and will likely move up to Clean ROm when I hear more about Canadian users experiences with the new CSC he put together.

I know when I was on 4.2.5 and 4.0.5 with the CSC provided I did not have photo editor.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] brittoking:
Re: [ROM][2/9] CleanROM ACE 4.5 -★| Unrivaled Performance Stability! | The Clean Way!

I would prefer a cleaner direct editing route but, no I'm not opposed to it, that is what I've been switching between to edit now anyway. Mainly wanted to know if that was how note came outta the box, trying to use the useless paper artist, or if you had options for which photo editing app you could choose? I didn't try it on the stock Rom before flashing/rooting etc. So I don't know how it's supposed to be. Thanks for any help provided

I'm haveing the same results as you. Use to be able to hit share and go to photo editer but it has not worked in the last several roms. If you hit settings the only option is for paper artist.

Personally I love the keyboard options.

Having the option to install both of them when I flash is awesome. Thanks Scott! Can't real comment on the launcher since I use nova for the backup capability.

Re: [ROM][2/9] CleanROM ACE 4.5 -★| Unrivaled Performance Stability! | The Clean Way!

Basically. You don't need to root again though. Just Flash stock firmware thru TWRP recovery like Scott recommends using for flashing his Rom's, open up Google maps get a good lock, flash back to clean Rom and then open Google maps and see if the lock will stick, it's a work around for people having trouble for whatever reason with GPS. You could also try flashing the zip for clean Rom on your internal card (if you previously flashed by using internal?) Or the opposite could work as well (flash from internal card if you flashed from external previously).

All my S Notes disappeared?

Has anyone else flashed this ROM and then found that their S Notes are all gone (including the ones that were there from Stock - there were example notes in there as well)?

I came from CleanRom 4.0.5, then tried (for a few hours) Jelly Beans v8, and then flashed this one (CleanRom 4.5). I did a wipe in recovery between each flash, as well as formatting /system and wiping Dalvik.

It looks like S Notes are stored on the internal SD card of the phone. I restored the nandroid backup I had done of 4.0.5 - this didn't help. Titanium Backup didn't recover them either.

I saw one other post in this thread about this happening to someone else - and not sure if they ever solved the issue or not (or found a way to recover the S Notes). If you are flashing ROMs and want to make sure that you don't lose those S Notes, it might not be a bad idea to copy the S Note folder to a safe place beforehand...
