Nice complicated rom :)

puha to many system UI stops :eek:

But for as long as the phone was running it looked nice.

Sadly i had to much lagging and fc's with out installing anything on the phone other then this rom.

I don't see the point of all the options in the aroma as most of us arnt programmers and don't know what most of the scripts installed together will do in the sense of the scripts will interfere with each other and create problems which in my case did happen.

Maybe someone can or will create some kinda walk-through on how to install this rom and get the best out of it ?

Most other roms install all the mods on its own sparing the user all the problems in having to reflash many times til they get the right mix of mods making the phone fast, smoth and battery efficient.

The above is just my opinion but its good to see a rom with those kinda options for those that have the know how to flash the right mods/scripts to make the run in the best way.

Anyways good luck to this thread maybe i will return when i figure out how to flash this rom hehe.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] jcrompton:
I haven't flashed this ROM yet but I was going to ask a similar question (maybe worded slightly differently) --- what option (tweaks) are others (and the developer) using as far as the best combination for this ROM. The option are many (which is good) but I have heard elsewhere that sometimes the tweaks can interfere with each other.

Thanks for the great work!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Mzakrih. Mate, plz share your setup and assist our new comers here.

They wanna know what options to choose...

If i'm coming from V7 do i need to perform a full wipe?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Full wipe is recommended in case you face issues.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] jayeshbsoni:
knwhow

If I flash this latest rom on mu device updated to dmg1 version , will I face any problem of network issuue or network will be ok after flashing this rom ?? I am asking this coz i read some people have had problem with network and IMEI after flashing Assassin rom .
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Hmmm.

People face issues with all roms recently, not only assassin.

They face issues if they try to downgrade to older releases or change to old modems.

Samsung decided to not allow to change modems due to security issues.

You will have no problems as long as you flash a rom with stock kernel and its modem that comes with the firmware.

XXDMG1 kernel and DDDMG1 modem from aroma.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] fenchai:
Awesome, this is by far the best rom, i always return here because 4.2.2cm roms are very battery sucking. Nice rom my friend! :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
And we always welcome you my friend :D:thumbup:

We are glad you like it.

Enjoy the power of Assassin ;)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Mano1982:
Awesome update.. Thanks a lot Devs :D
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] mzakirh:
Once again a winner:thumbup:

The aroma options are self explanatory. Usually I do instal all tweaks & scripts. I don't think these interfere with each other. Like the developers recommend, it's always advisable to stick with the recommended n default kernel & modem.Result is a super smooth n lag free rom. Enjoy the experience guys, you've run into the best ROM in business:D:D

Gr8 job as always, bros Firas n Wesam. Could you pl.look in the Inverted apps page, the page only has AOSP black messaging n not other options as mentioned in the OP.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] jcrompton:
I agree - these guys do a great job BUT the options are NOT self explanatory and they have some that are redundant on separate pages of the Aroma. That's why I asked about individual set ups.

Do you use Simplistic? I have seen other developers going away from it ??
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
I will write up my setup of installation soon.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] mzakirh:
I do use Simplistic. .I think it's a great tool to customise status bar & other settings. Don't know why developers are shying away.

sorry if this dumb question. im on v7 and loving it but want to try v8. if I do a nandroid backup of v7 and want to restore via cwm...will this be an issue after I install v8?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
I haven't restored v7 after I installed v8. So I can't tell. But it should be ok since both versions are based on new firmwares.

Also v8 is way better.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] mzakirh:
Bro Wesam

Much appreciated if you could provide inverted gmail n playstore apps. :D
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Mate. Play store and Gmail gets updated frequently. So if you have inverted versions you will loose the invert once automatically updated.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] mzakirh:

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] fenchai:
Hi wesamothman, it seems that the new multitask doesnt dissapear the apps closed with back button. It should of with the bew 3.6 version of simplistic framework. Is there a problen if i flash it in this rom?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Hi mate. In the changelog if Assassin we mentioned fix for simplistic recent apps.

We removed the new multitasking and replaced it with old one because the new one doesn't allow you to navigate the recent apps with home long press.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] fenchai:
Wow, was that a bug? I think the new multitask is like REAL multitasking because when you close with back button it means you are not going to use the app, so in order for it to appear in the multitask you should press home button.

Can i do something so that i can get the new multitasking?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] aditya1987:
Hi mate...after installing v8 my camera has stopped working...It shows 'camera failed'....pls help....everything else is just awesome...M new to this ROM and I want to use this ROM but without camera its just not possible..
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
I will make a flashable zip for you tomorrow to put back ext.jar :thumbup:

---------- Post added at 01:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:58 AM ----------

That is weird. Well. Did you choose camera 4.2 from aroma or stock camera?

Did you try to fix permissions or flash the rom again no wipe.?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] fenchai:
Thanks, 1 question, when i do a restore do i need to wipe or only flash it via cwm?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
When i make the flashable zip for the original recent apps of simplistic, you just flash it thru cwm. But make nandroid first.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
[MENTION=4077382]fenchai[/MENTION]

Hi my friend.

Here it is. Original Recent Apps of Simplistic 3.6 Flashable zip file :)

The script will:

- delete existing /system/framework/ext.jar

- install original simplistic 3.6 /system/framework/ext.jar

- set permission 0644.

1) Nandroid first, just in case.

2) Flash the zip via recovery.

3) Reboot your device.

Good luck :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] fenchai:
It works! I didnt need to set permissions as it was set to 0644 rwrr by default :) thanks wesam
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
You're welcome mate.

Congrats :)

when selecting tweaks in the init.d and build prop section, there seems to be a lot of tweaks that deal with the same thing?

What are your wifi problems? Try to reflash the rom or fix permissions.

Which recovery? Try twrp... Works well.

---------- Post added at 03:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:57 AM ----------

I flashed v8 over v6 wid full wipes..i have flashed neak kernel and default modem dmg1 n i get wifi issues..authentication error. Wifi works just fine on v6..so currently restored v6 thru nandroid n its workin like a charm..wonder whts got behind this version?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
I just tested. No wifi issues here.

The new base has new libs for wifi and other components, firmware related for security reasons.

Whenever you face authentication error while trying to connect to wifi, it doesn't necessarily mean it is rom related. It could be caching issue on device or try restating your modem/router.

thanks bro firas n wesam for the awesome ROM.

Noob question, i'm currently on assasins 7.0, and would like to upgrade to 8.0.

However, i don't want to lose the settings (i.e, simplistic setup, freezed apps, setup on google play services, maps, etc.)

Would it be possible to backup all of it, then restore it after flashing?

---------- Post added at 03:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:51 PM ----------

Wow!! how you do that?

is it simply because of this amazing ROM?

Or do you have any other's settings? please share if you don't mind/].
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] mzakirh:
Honestly have no other settings mate..it's all coz of the rom n the latest modem:D
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] asepuhuybok:
Dear all,

Is there any option in aroma installer if i just wanna stay with stock modem and kernel?coz lost imei makes me hv to very carefully in flash rom.

Im still in xxdme1 firmware, and xxdlk5 modem..

Many thanks
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
In aroma, choose xxdmg1 kernel and DDDMG1 modem which are the stock files of the latest firmware.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] asepuhuybok:
But right now my fw is XXDME1, Modem still XDLK5 which is my country (Indonesian) latest firmware and modem.

Is it can cause a problem?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Well. Dlk5 modem is not released anymore by samsung. Latest firmwares include different modems and newer kernels for security reasons and enhancements. My country modem used to be Dlk7 and now i am on DDDMG1 modem with the latest stock kernel and i dont see any bad reception. All depends on how the service provider reception towers are covering the region.

Once you upgrade you cannot change the modem even if you are rooted. This is samsung decision lately. So it is your call mate.

But in general when a new firmware is released it means for the better.

Good luck.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] fenchai:
I dont really find any difference in the change of modems, the signal reception i thinj it depends on your provider and the data speed is a mistery, some say specific modems have specific RIL and if you change it ur data speed may be faster but thats just a theory. Personally i tried it and the ril fix just made my speed worst so i dont think you guys should worry about changes on modems...

Oh and GPS reception is already calibrated in aroma by country which is really great!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] asepuhuybok:
Samsung hvnt released officiall latest indonesian fw of XXDMG1 still in XXDME1, im concerning of lost IMEI if i flash this ROM with latest fw and modem. Is it possible to lost IMEI?

Wish me luck :D:D

Hi, I need RTL FIX for this rom, where can I get it?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dexter10478:
180 degree Orientation

First of all thanks for this great ROM. Have been using it without any issue.

In the previous versions, I was able to get 180 degree reverse portrait screen rotation. This stopped from the latest version.

In this orientation, while using S-Pen, palm doesn't interfere with the back/menu capactive buttons, which i have been finding very helpful.

How can i get this back.

Thanks in Advacne.

Yes.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dexter10478:
No. I am not talking about launcher rotation. I am talking about all applications rotating to 180 degree. I find it useful while using S-Pen during taking long S-Notes. It doesn't interfere with back button because phone is upside down in that orientation and buttons are up.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Application rotation is controlled by the framework. Make sure you enable auto rotation from settings.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dexter10478:
Auto rotation is enabled. but it rotates only in landscape (90 and 270 degrees) orientations NOT in 180 degree which is like reverse portrait where the phone is upside down with home and capacitive button on top. This was happening in previous version.
