If you are using the Perseus kernel make sure that ALL the audio settings in STweaks are turned OFF. Otherwise they will conflict with some of the Beats settings and lock things up. Actually..... they will eat RAM until the phone freezes.

Hello. Is there anyway to remove call recording and to have call swap instead. I hate having to completely hang up instead of being able to switch back to the original call
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Leoisright:
Step one done tonight.

Aroma now lets you choose which of 5 launchers, which keyboard, music mods, gapps, s4 apps, stock or modded mms or phone, other apps and mods.

Next step is just link them all up in the updater to install. That should be a fun adventure. Went from knowing nothing about aroma to completely rewriting it and simplifying it. Now lets see if we can put it all together...lol

At the end of the day this should be easier for us to add and remove options. I wasnt a fan of which type of install you wanted but more what apps you wanted to choose from and which mods you wanted to better customize your installation.

Once I get this done, we can then add custom kernels to the mix or a pure stock to basic aosp if we wanted

Overall the main zipp will remain large due to all the added features of aroma but the overall footprint on your device will be up to you during install.

Please dont ask for any special features added or removed until this is working the right way. Once it is we can then discuss which features the whole wants to see.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] coiledwire:
For right now: r83 > r85 > torch/reboot/clear fixes

I thought the mms fix was included in r85.

So long as it works and is as easy to follow as the last release(I.e. the little notes) personally I don't care too much about the aesthetics of it.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingdazy:
the only things I could see that were unclear* was "verizon apps" (are these for sprint users too?), and perhaps a little grey text blurb re: "S4 apps"? (what are they?)

I also think "swap internal/external SD cards" checked by default might cause issues/confuse some of the... "more recent" members?

otherwise layout/function seems good, makes sense. (i'll run through it again when the GF leaves...)

* as in perhaps someone that doesn't follow this thread religiously might not understand, or know to search for.

I've noticed that any time I flash a supplemental zip the version falls back to the last major release.

I just flashed the latest flashlight fix and shows version v83 and i already flashed v85
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] coiledwire:
The overall layout seems reasonable to me.

For the music service, stock music is just a player? And beats eq is a system wide adjustment? That's what I assume.

Please try to include as much detail in the comment field for the options. This will reduce the questions asked here.

Looks good tho. Can't wait to put it in use.

Guys, thanks for the feedback. There will need to be more work done. Im thrilled to be part of this team and look forward to helping platty as much as possible.

Just wanted to let everyone know that this was just my attempt in understanding aroma installer. Now with great input from platty there is a still more work I need to do to understand this. I appreciate all the help platty has given to get me caught up to speed on this amazing rom and the opportunity to help.

This installer may not even be used. It was just ideas throwing out there to see peoples thoughts. Now that we know how to add choices of launchers, to which mods, to which apps, we very well may stick to the original version and add just a few pages to select different add ona.

Thanks again for the input. Heck I may just use this type of installer for flashpacks...

Thanks

Leo
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Leoisright:
Agreed.. adding details is the easy part and most have no descriptions. Like mentioned. It was just to wrap my head around how aroma works more than anything.

There will be much more learning for me.

Thanks everyone for the feedback. I will go any direction platty decides. Its been a blast working with him and the open communication between us has been great. Hes one hell of a dev. Many should buy him a beer...lol or three. :)

When I use my s-pen to write on a photo it wont send using the main messaging app but will send using Handcent

Before installing Synergy I could send using both.

What might be the reason for the main messaging app not sending those screenshots now while Handcent still sends them?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lopies:
Will this work with MA7 as well?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] the_plattypus:
What photo app are you using to write on image with
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] slthree:
The stock Gallery as well as QuickPic as well as anything from Flipboard (like when I write a note on a story I'm sending someone). Any screenshot too.

Its strange right? All those things send if I send them using Handcent but won't send using the main messaging app

By the way, I'm loving Synergy
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] bobloiy:
Any idea?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] coiledwire:
Platt knows about it and I believe it's just related to the stock icon. I'm using text only and the % is correct, so try another battery icon until Platt gets a fix out.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Leoisright:
Ok. Some success tonight. Had it fully install the custom system. Man. Platt is good. Hes gonna fine tune things to help get the wipe options and carrier choices in too.

I will say its pretty cool to see a flash of your choices installing. Whether we use this or the current one, ideas are just flowing on how we can add an even more customized installation.

With some suggestions made, each item has a full description. Most are bland because they are self explanitory but others are more detailed to show which s4 apps and beats as system wide installation.

This has been a fun learning experience and thanks to you guys and plat for getting my dev back on....lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] m3meems:
Just wanted to give you a heads up on the group messaging. Messaged two people with iphones, when my phone sends, it lists the name as "anonymous" and I can't send any other messages. When they reply it goes to the individual sender's thread.

Also, noticed if you center the clock and have too many icons (Bluetooth, vibrate, smart stay,) it overlaps over the am/pm.

Thanks for a great rom!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Leoisright:
Yeah weve had many comments about the center clock. Its a shame cause it looks amazing in the middle. I think we can fix that one.

Thanks for the feedback on the geoup chat. It sounds like it hates iphones....haha. no for real thats good info. Sounds like a link may be broke.

Kind of annoying to skip through the whole quote in the xda app, especially when there is no reason to quote the whole op. Not trying to be an ass or anything.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] JusticeAA:
Is there a way to reboot back into recovery from the aroma installer? If not, I would recommend adding an option to exit the installer and go back into recovery.

Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Leoisright:
There used to be but it would cause freezing issues with some installs so we took it out for the mean time. Will add it back at some point
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Negrito:
Whether you can fix it or not please leave it as an option. Not all of us get a stupid amount of notifications, and I agree for some reason the clock looks quote legit in the middle there.

So you quotted the OP so we could read it to you? :confused:

....typed one handed from my Galaxy Note II
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Leoisright:
Im guessing he didnt mean to make so many people frustrated by quoting the OP. Lets give him a break as im sure he got the point now.

And to answer the ultimate question. No, no bootani mods yet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] OneoftheRabble:
I'll avoid the other comments.

You can install a custom boot ani. You can use ROM Toolbox to install one or just about any other app. The thing is you need to go in and defeat the Samsung ani to do it.

nandroid backup - never know what can happen, so backup first.

using root explorer or es file explorer or whatever.

Navigate to System/Bin.

rename samsungani to samsungani.bak (or delete)

rename bootanimation to samsungani

Navigate to System/Media

rename bootsamsung.qmg to bootsamsung.bak (or delete)

rename bootsamsungloop.qmg to bootsamsungloop.bak (or delete)

add custom bootanimation.zip of your liking, and fix permissions as you would any other app.

I have done this several times with the Boot Animation settings in ROM Toolbox. And also installed two through flashable zips. All have worked.

YMMV and I am not responsible if you bork your phone while playing in /System/bin. Nor will I take responsibility for your dog getting fleas, the cat catching mange, your kid brother breaking your models, a bad grade on a test at school or any other acts of God, man or the errant electron.

A couple of questions. First, is about the center clock, I LOVE the center clock, so how are you guys getting it? I've flashed r83 and revision r85 and I have no center clock....

Second, right after I flashed r85 I got a FC on dropbox. So I cleared data in "application manager" in settings and now when I try to open dropbox it just freezes for a sec and FC's.... Anyone else having this problem?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Game619:
under settings, go under SynergyRom settings for the clock option, you also have choice to choose a different Battery Icon.

For Dropbox it continue to freeze until you completely uninstall it, and just reload it from Google Play :)

1. Dropbox & Google Search freezes/crashes till u uninstall and re-install from playstore

2. Facebook Events/Calender don't longer sync with the phones stock Calender (example ppl bday)

3. There is no internet bookmarks from Google syncing either, on r78 both issues were actually working.

4. Google Talk disappeared on mine but since everything else works i can live without it just like the two previous bugs.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] the_plattypus:
I think some of these are a result of restoring data and or installation. #4 is most likely an install issue. #2 may also be either a facebook setting or sync setting in accounts. #3 works just fine on my phone (see below). And #1 , is anyone else having this or any of the other issues?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wolfeyes30:
Had the Google voice search issue until I uninstalled and reinstalled it. Also had the bookmark sync issue but I found the bookmarkadapter.apk and all is good.

Thanks Platt for a great rom.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Game619:
oh yeah i agree too many problems with restoring Data, i quit trying to restore anything with facebook & google related, i do it just by hand cause everything syncs back once u Login

Facebook only gives one one option to sync and thats contacts only :(

WiFi Tether & AROMA Question

I'm still learning my way around the partition setup, please be patient with my ignorance.

1st the AROMA question: I performed 4 wipes of Cache / Dalvik / System & performed factory reset and AROMA gave a message about dirty flashing because data had not been wiped. I'm curious as to what that is about since I did perform recommended partition wipes. This happened when installing Rev83, applying Rev85 has not resolved the 2nd item of interest WiFi tether.

2nd item of interest for me is with the 2 WiFi tether methods. When attempting to use the built in option I do connect between phone & laptop, (after waiting a few minutes and finally getting the laptops "Limited Connectivity" message to go away) and based on 3G icon activity it appears to begin working and like magic my 3G network icon goes away and restarts / reloads with a message about preparing the network.

When using the Trev-E mod I connect between phone & laptop but never get onto the network. I have manually changed Trev-E settings to use S3 & Netd-Ndc after reading about previous Synergy versions mentioning this as a fix.

Thanks for your suggestions & assistance,

Respectfully,

Hey hey......I should have some updates for you on the AT&T today bro.:)

Going to bag up all the changed out files and get them over to you arty some point today.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Leoisright:
We are in the process of overhauling Aroma installer. Why is still says a dirty flash is because you didnt wipe in aroma so it doesnt know youve already prepared the system prior to starting the Aroma installer.

I believe everyone here will like the new aroma options as we can install to individual liking rather thwn flashpacks to get it where you want it to be.

I cant answer the second part because I havent used the tether yet. but now that you mention it, it will be something we can look in to.

Thanks

Hah, nothing like a code refresh / overhaul to get the adrenaline pumping, and to push a receding hair line further back with multiple face palm strikes while muttering to yourself about "Now what the heck did I get wrong with the syntax?" etc....

Best of luck to you and the rest of the developers of this ROM, since I've installed it last night It has been a lot of fun putting it through the paces. Other than the minor bump in the road that got me scratching my head regarding WiFi tether I am finding this to be a well thought out & executed setup. I look forward to your continuing progress.
