[MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION] i have some requests and questions, if you have time please answer me :)

1. How can we Hide sms from call logs, i remember seeing it in other roms such as omega or neat roms.

2. Also can you add if you have free time 4-way reboot menu in the rom :) (found in omega, neat rom)

3. Is scrolling cache disabled? If not, does disabling it really benificial ?

4. in search for a 2g/3g toggle in stock toggles, i found this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=38219589

can it be added to our rom (it is for 4.1.2 roms) but i dont know if it can be ported somehow.

Thanks for your time, really love your work.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
First rule of using ArchiDroid, this is not neat rom or omega.

Second rule of using ArchiDroid, this is not Q&A thread.

And the most important fact:

Compare ArchiDroid's smoothness, lightness, responsiveness and everything you want to other ROM. This is my masterpiece. I already included everything what is important for me, bunch of my self-written unique tweaks and other modifications, which results in a very special ROM, which in my honest opinion is perfect.

I have nothing against modding/customizing it, as this is the whole reason i.e. for having themes in aroma, but before you point your finger at any so-called "tweaks" or other "magic init.d scripts", think twice.

I'm always open to any pull requests, features and further optimization/tweaking, however if something is NOT included in ArchiDroid, then either:

a) I have it on my todo list

b) I didn't find it before

c) It's useless, user-specific or I can't find any reason for including it

d) I didn't want to include it for a very good reason

e) It's placebo, doesn't work correctly, causes problems or developer of this thing has no idea what he's doing

All keyboards, SGS4 ports, special "mods" and so on are covered by point c). Your cache is covered by d) and e).

ArchiDroid is the ROM with outstanding development and I think that every developer agrees that it's the most advanced, complex and tweaked ROM from the inside. However I'm definitely not going to make it super-duper-customized-with-one-click, because most of the mods you can flash on your own and I really don't want to include additional hundreds of megabytes just to allow you using Note3 keyboard instead of S3 one...

This is why I included Wanam Xposed, Gravity Box and Themes - to allow YOU customize your ArchiDroid as you want. With those three tools you can change EVERY component as you like, and you really don't need magic mods to do so, neither my specific settings to achieve that.

If I find something useful, something what really works, something what really makes a difference, I'm always happy to contact with the proper developer and discuss this change, which eventually includes adding to ArchiDroid.

This was with Devil's F2FS.

This was with Frandom

This was with CrossBreeder

And this was with nearly every component, which is available for you today.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ayoubij:
Hey man, long story short: no doubt this is one of the best roms, and I didn't mean to compare it to other roms either, was just giving example where the mods may be found (maybe choice b ).

Second about the keyboard, I know its the easiest thing I can do, was just giving suggestions since its the same as s3 keyboard but with one extra thing, I meant adding it not for me personally, for all archidroid users, but ofcourse it is your rom in the end of the day and you will decide.

Third about the scrolling cache, I saw tons of roms that add it as a feature (even in wanam xposed module it is found), that is why I asked you if it is beneficial, since you are more expert than me in that are. Also hide sms from call logs, and 4 way reboot are found in xposed wanam module, but I was suggesting merely to help all archidroid users, really not for my personal use. I also thought maybe if they found in the rom, they would do better in ram management than in a module app, but maybe that's not true.

The only thing, that I honestly didn't find any solution for was the 2g/3g toggle, but that's not a big issue, seems there is no current way of adding it on Samsung roms yet. ( I used to use it a lot on aosp roms, and got used to it that's all )

Also was asking about the Arabic font before, but no one is able to help me, so can you please tell me if the font in your rom is different than the stock 4.1.2 stock font? or even the 4.3 aosp font ? The Arabic font was normal in both, but in your roms its very small. Really not sure if this is a specific rom issue, or a stock 4.3 issue as I didn't use many custom 4.3 roms, *hint* I directly liked yours ;)

Also please don't take my posts as offensive, as I am really only trying to help and improve whenever I can, and I am learning, I am new to android, this is my first android phone, so please don't take it offensive if I bring up noobish questions :)

Thank you again, sorry for the long post, and hope we are on good terms!

EDIT: just noticed you updated your post

Wanted to ask you about gravity box actually, do the quick settings mods work? because I see no change when I play with them.

Also wanted to say, although I am noob, I am also new to your rom, and in short time I will be accustomed with everything (im reading as much as I can, because this is all new to me, I have been on aosp for over a year and only flash new nightlies every week). Sorry about asking too many questions in these few days...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
I don't take it as any offense, because the whole xda is about discussing and this is why we're all here, but the point is that this has been discussed already. And I repeat myself - this is not Q&A thread. This is development thread and you should ask your questions in proper ArchiDroid Q&A.

Also your font is probably somewhere in bloatware pack.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Maplobats:
I get an unusual amount of satisfaction when I see 'apt-get' in the heavy processes field on cool tool.

(sorry, I know it is rather off topic, but I really really enjoy having linux on my phone...only thing better would be if it was arch linux instead of debian :P )

Archi, I'll be sending something your way after next payday.

Hi [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION]

1.7.11 is quite smooth.. thanks..

Just one thing I noticed is that when I switch on video recording, the record button takes about 2-3 seconds to appear.. the same happens when I stop recording..

Although it is not a show stopper but I thought of bringing to your notice.. If there is some setting which can be modified, do let me know..

Thanks again

---------- Post added at 10:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:10 AM ----------

I have stock theme and I didn't notice such camera behaviour. Maybe it's related with custom theme?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] srv.abhishek:
Hi, I am on Stock Theme itself..

Ok.. I think that happened when the phone first booted after the flash.. it is working fine now...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Radder124:
Hi Archi, what's the new Fix Camera in the tweaks? Should we install this?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kalda01:
Aroma says it can't find rom presets from previous install of 1.7.10 when I try to install 1.7.11.

How do you save the current presets so aroma can find it ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Again, option for saving aroma preset is mostly for experimental users who flash rom often.

This option won't work when new ArchiDroid version has something new or something removed in aroma. And this happened with camera fix in 1.7.11.

No, unless you have camera problem after flashing custom kernel, it's experimental feature more or less.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kalda01:
Is it required to wipe anything before upgrading from 1.7.10 to 1.7.11 ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
No, as the base is the same.

HOWEVER this is Sammy's base, no hopes.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] srv.abhishek:
Ohk.. I have anyways applied it.. should it be bother?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
No, it's fine.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kapiljhajhria:
I just just fllshed 1.7.11

install... mega wipe....formatted system...formatted internal sdcard....but my wifi direct and bluetooth is not working. Not able to send files through either one.

So I followed all these steps again. But still same result. Any suggestions?

Not able to search thread....getting message that search functiomln is unavilable right now.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Flash with stock kernel.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kapiljhajhria:
Ok I will try tomorrow.

My wifi is working fine. Just wifi direct and bluetooth not able to send any type of files.

I was about to falsh bloatware package. Am downkoading it right now. Should I drop that idea? Because I dont need any other app except the one which are included in your rom. Just want this wifi direct and bluetooth problem fixed because this is the only reason I swiched from cm based ROM to sammy. I habe used your rom befor and never faced this problem. This is the first time.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] k6?:
Flashed straight over 11e and works perfect.

Thanks Archi.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] vyp54:
Sometimes the usage goes up to cca .450 especially if I keep some apps resident in memory like Phone, Contacts and Messages to avoid the famous Samsung lag. This is the black theme included in the Archidroid. I'm onto the smartcard - you'll have the answer tomorrow.

Ok so to you and all lads that get FC in recent apps if they uninstall google search - I can only share my experience and cannot guarantee that this will work for you although it worked for me on different ROMS with different cleaners. Maybe Archi can back me up with this one since my programming knowledge is flat zero.

As I stated before I use cleaner apps (not ROM cleaner script) after flash to remove apps that are not to my liking (such as useless google search). First I was using Clean Master from KSmobile untill it became hardcore intrusive and RAM wasting. Then I was pointed to a (in my opinion) way better app called SDmaid from darken. Inside the app you have Appcontrol which can remove system apps also (if you're rooted, which I assume you are if you're running Archidroid). I removed "google search" and "com.google.android.voicesearch". When you remove those 2 apps - google search should be out of the app drawer and out of the google play installed list.

The only thing that won't be functioning no more is the google search dedicated button in the recent apss. It will become gray and unresponsive like in the screenshot. Everything other is functional.

Give it a try and report back. Maybe we can get rid of it forevah.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Then why you didn't select wi-fi direct in aroma?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ayoubij:
I tried the same and removed the 2 apps but it still FC for me when i hold home button. Lol the max i can do now is hibernate them.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] vyp54:
Well, crap. I cannot shine any more light on this. :rolleyes:

I am clean flashing .11 version tonight so I will try to experiment some more. I'll post findings if I get anything.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ayoubij:
If you will experiment, try using the aosp theme. because I noticed the difference between me and you is that you use stock theme, and I use aosp theme, so maybe it has to do something with the FC...

Also please do look at my screenshots, I have

1. Nfc service (34mbs) and nfc service:handover (34mbs) and I have NFC disabled always, and I never use it and I never will use it, so how can I remove it completely?

2. What is the 'package access helper' (35mbs) it is running most of the time in the ram.

3. badge provider (35mbs) ?? for what??

4. Factory Mode ?? for what??

5. smartcard service ?? for what??

If someone else knows, please do enlighten us :)

Does built-in adblock update?

Hi, 1.7.11 seems really great, smoothest update yet!

Just wondering how the adblock host file is updated - or is it only updated with the rom? Just so used to adaway and seeing it check for new hosts, update itself etc.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
If you point AdAway to /system/archidroid/etc/hosts_adaway then you can update it in the same way.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] viktor92:
I've just updated from 1.7.9 to 1.7.11 and all went well. The first try with forced update, after setting manually many options, in the very last step when aroma begins the rom installations, it suddenly exited to recovery. Tried one more time, and then it seems that the installer has remembered all previous setting and went directly to the rom installation. Once booted, changed many setting in Xposed, Flashed boeffla again, and all is working fine :good::)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kapiljhajhria:
i selected all the bloatware. didn't skipped even one. and the error which i am getting is file sharing not available.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Melissakis:

Aletrnate download link for ArchiDroid V1.7.11

Hello Team,

Could you please provide torrent link for downloading AD v1.7.11 ,trying to download from past two days but couldn't finish it ,might be cuz of network drop. would appreciate Torrent link ,

---------- Post added at 12:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:27 PM ----------

Did you choose any custom kernel in aroma? I'm using AD with boeffla and I don't face any wakelags problems at all.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Melissakis:
I installed boeffla kernel, the one that was in the installer. If it's kernel related, then maybe I should try a newer version or reset Boeffla config? The truth is that I have not tweaked anything in Boffla config, except the sound options.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ayoubij:
Which archi profile you chose? Performance or battery or ultra
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Melissakis:
I don't remember it's name, but it's the one that's recommended during the installation.

Thanks Malachow:cowboy:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] hernis_22:
thanks archi for your work i love this rom more and more and more!!

installed the 1.7.11 with boeffla and the camera fix and work perfectly! nothing to complain!!! keep the good work!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] vyp54:
Reporting removed com.voicesearch and google search and no FC on recent apps in AOSP theme.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
Why would FCs appear? I always delete google searchvoice, it's totally unnecessary for me and doesn't cause any unstability. :) Afaik the only situation in which that app is required for anything is when you want to install Google Next Launcher, but in all the other cases it's just a normal app which is meant to be installed or uninstalled. ;)

But yep, thanks for info, maybe smbd here didn't know about this possibility to remove GVS.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] fema90:
I have the same issue.

This happens after a few days. It happened on 1.7.9 and on few-days-old experimental, too. After a few days the phone becomes slow as hell. In the beginning there's hardly any wake up lag, apps work flawlessly and then everything's over. Every time I switch between apps, the previous one is loaded from scratch (Maps forgetting that I was currently following a path to the destination, and such annoying things). Wake up lag 5-10 sec, after getting a call, I can't even wake the phone with buttons for a few seconds; after the call is over, the phone hangs for a few sec. I'm not getting nofitications because the apps are killed as soon as another view is loaded. Today I didn't even get my emails until I opened Gmail app. This is chaotic.

I'm using Boeffla kernel with Archi's default profile, no bloatware, AOSP theme, less than 20 apps from market, and before install, I made a full wipe. Only apps running in the background with enabled notification are Messenger, Stack Exchange and GMail.

Before 1.7.9 I was using an older rom base, it had none of these issues, only the usual 4.3 wake up lag, but it was stable.

I will try the current rom base and if it has the issues I mentioned above, I'll rather sell the phone. I'm tired of this continuous struggle.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] vyp54:
If you read back a page or two there's a member called "ayoubij" that gets FC on recent apps after removing google search. He wanted to know if it's due to AOSP theme. :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
ArchiDroid by itself doesn't cause any wake-up lag.

You can try:

a) Other kernels

b) Disabling zram

c) ZeroWakeUp tweak in aroma
[Galaxy S III Android Development] fema90:
b) doesn't help even a bit

c) would only (possibly) remove the wake up lag but this would only fix one of my problem

a) isn't boeffla the best kernel? :/

I think the problem (at least for me) is something less obvious than simple wake up lag. It's as if something would eat up my RAM, although the OS says I have 150MB+ free RAM (in general) and there shouldn't be anything doing this. I run less app now than I was on my zte blade...

I'll try another kernel then. Maybe Samsung's. I'll report back (in a week as it takes days to reproduce the problem).

Thanks for the suggestions anyway. :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Rusiru:
Hi Archi,

I have moved from XperianZe 0.9.8 to your excellent rom few weeks back, Thank You.... its the best I'v ever come across after using XperianZe as i was much concerned abut Battery+Performance focused roms..

But at the first flash i had a issue and managed to sort it out by just going through the forum, it gave me a unsuccessful flash even before it reach 50%, and end up with a boot loop ( CWM > Boot animation >CWM >boot Animation). so I had to update it to PhilZ Touch Recovery n then a successful flash.

sad thing was after the boot loop issue, my internal memory has gone missing by some 7Gb ( my Storage was almost full by 7Gb before the flash) which i cannot find anywhere. when i check my storage in settings it shows me 7Gb miscellaneous files and when i go there there's nothing to be found goes up to that amount.

is there any way of a recovery?

much appreciate if you can look in to this matter..

(i have attached a screenshot for your ref.)

Thank you in advance.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] ayoubij:
Thats weird bro. Im using nova launchee btw if that makes any difference.

But the the thing is i removed google search and voice search when they were system apps. Then it causes fc. So i install only google search from playstore, and now i have both apps again in drawer. So they were before 2 icons and 2 apps. Now 1 app but 2 icons.

Also when i hold home button i get icon of a magnifying glass (search) instead of this google icon you get in the middle.

im unistalling them from titanium pro.

Really confusing
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Roidred:
There is cooltool which shows there is free ram. And also show process intensive task. I have never had problems with ram here. That is one of the outstanding feature of this ROM. Before I was on neat. My configuration is v1.7.11 with f2fs devil kernel. Before I was on boeffla beta 4.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
Hmm, few flashes ago I had similiar problem with app drawer after uninstalling google voice search. But not any FCs for sure, that's weird..

Anyway, next time, after AD flash, go to Titanium Backup, find google search, freeze it and go back to app drawer. Then again open TB & uninstall freezed google voice. I've been performing these steps since AD1.7.8 till current version 1.7.11 and I haven't experienced any FCs or app drawer failures at all.

I hope you'll get the point of my solution. :)

---------- Post added at 11:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:13 AM ----------

I'd have some idea [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION]. Can you make mentioned above Google Voice choosable in aroma? It seems that for some users this app is only a bloatware. :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ayoubij:
Bro I tried freezing it through titanium backup, but then I exited and held home button and got the same FC (system UI) as if I removed it. I don't know what it is, but this recent apps is too dependent on it for me..

Hey guys I don't know if this is rom related (some script running over and over or something)

But every now and then in wifi settings the option "scanning always available" keeps re enabling itself although I have already disabled it. Is anyone else having this issue or is just me?

(it causes battery drain since wifi is always on )

I am on the latest archidroid(thanks a lot for your contribution mate) and everything is perfect except for this.

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Google search provides google voice, and we definitely want to use voice from time to time f.e. when messaging. So my answer is no unless you can prove otherwise.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
Ok, but I'm not asking for removing app completely, but only making it choosable in AD's aroma. If it also means the lack of voice then OK, let's add an info about it under Google Search tick box in aroma. I can't see any cons of such solution, do you?

---------- Post added at 02:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:58 PM ----------

Moroever, you can also left it ticked by default in aroma so only users like me or [MENTION=5093763]ayoubij[/MENTION] will have to change something to get rid of GV.
