King Kang™

Android Open Kang Project

​

What is AOKP?

AOKP stands for Android Open Kang Project. It is a custom ROM distribution for several high-end Android devices. The name is a play on the word kang and AOSP (Android Open Source Project). The name was sort of a joke, but it just stuck, just like our infatuation with unicorns.

We fork the source code of Android that Google puts out in the open with every major version release, and we then add the magical unicorn bytes (read: we add some of the coolest features that are both useful and make your ROM awesome).

With AOKP, you can generally do a lot more with your device than what you could do with the original firmware that came installed on it.

Why AOKP ?

We were waiting for when you’d ask this.

There are a variety of reasons why a hilly billy Android user, on a bright sunny day, would suddenly start using AOKP and loving it.

For one, AOKP is lightweight. Most OEMs provide a heavy UI layer over Android and have loads of bloatware (i.e. apps that not everyone use every day, but you cannot remove because they’re “baked in” by default). Since AOKP is built upon vanilla Android source, it has neither of the above.

Also AOKP has features that you will not find on your stock firmware. You can have a multitude of toggles to quickly flip a lot of your phone’s settings right at your fingertips, or you can launch apps quickly from any screen using our Ribbons.

You can change almost each and every aspect of the OS, from its looks to the way it functions, with total freedom. And did we tell you, AOKP helps you make tacos?​

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] navinn:
which memory script can i use..??

rom not booting for me...

my bad.....:rolleyes::rolleyes:
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Red Devil:
Thanks a lot peeps.. lots of stuff to fix.. work to do.. updates will come steadily.. cheers.. getting this thing to compile and boot was a tough task for me.. So keep calm and report bugs :D

It takes some time to boot..

memory script: I dont use any script personally.. I find 150 mb enough for my sort of use..

You can try s2e.. as reported .. works in other 4.2.2 based ROMs..

And dont spam my inbox.\

EDIT : I thought ribbons didnt work.. they do.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Hpsgill:
Good job bro
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] navinn:
Home screen bit laggy...

When any script added then rom is not booting...

Sometimes touch not responding...

Take a look at it...

Akshat....
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akashpatel:
There are some overlapping problem but overall the ROM is very smooth and loved it. Faced no other problem yet if found I will report asap...

Keep up the good work:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Red Devil:
Touch not responding ? Get a logcat if possible.. Laggy.. ? yes a bit for me. sometimes. adding GPU OC will help. But I did not..

Yeah overlapping hope to fix in subsequent builds :)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] marko94:
First,great work..Awesome,I love AOKP.. :good:

For now,bugs same as CM10.1 :)

and s2e don't work for me, but in CM10.1 works :(

that's for now :D
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] maxy!:
Plzz guys tell me is this working

1. Video recording n decoding

2. Bluetooth n GPS:D:D:D
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] marko94:
When I configure ribbons, system.ui restarted so many time..Then ROM is unusable...
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Red Devil:
I will look into it.. Bring a logcat if possible when the system UI restarts.. I have had no problem with ribbons.. have been using this ROM since the past 3-4 days now.. maybe the number of icons/shortcuts you put in is more than me.. I will test a bit more.. Scripts.. I cant do anything much about it really.. Maximum can edit init.rc in ramdisk to make it work.. but thats a long shot .. try other scripts like int2ext+...

EDIT : Added a few more screen shots to the first post regarding ribbons.. all combinations.. I will try to add more options in the ribbons to see if it works smoothly :)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akashpatel:
One more bug bro...:crying:

its not able to mount dalvik cache to sd-ext when using m2sd...

none of the other scripts work but m2sd(it moves apps properly but not dalvik cache)

m2sd works well on cm10.1....plzzz look into this in ur next bulid.....:):)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Red Devil:
Scripts arent a ROM bug .. Remember our phone has an internal memory of 150 MB.. The ROM only deals with that.. The script should be compatible with the ROM ..and not the ROM compatible with the script. ! I will not deviate much from what AOKP has decided the ROM to be as .. this is not a 7zip kang that I will add tweaks..and make it compatible .. I cant do much to do anything about it.. Thats that.. I ll check which script works. Try int2ext+ / s2e.. thats THAT. ! no more script discussion please.. ROM bugs with a logcat is appreciated..
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] marko94:
I don't have logcat,because I flash this ROM again,and for now ( 8 h using it) everything works fine, system.ui works perfect, don't facing any reboots.. Script int2ext works fine, but I have faced small lags
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Red Devil:
Glad to hear that int2ext works. Thanks [MENTION=4765089]marko94[/MENTION].. Will add it to 1st post....

Take this question to Q and As .. PM the guy who used it.. anything BUT SCRIPTS !! This is not a script discussion thread. I have explained before.. One more post and I am reporting.. :\
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Red Devil:
Next build expect a bloatfree and smoother build... I am trying to fix the overlays at the moment.. No etas ! If bluetooth is fixed will implement that too !

Thanks for the support peeps ! :)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] electron.hTcpico:
review time

the roms vey good

all the features work no fc and all

fairly smooth

there is a bit of a lag here and there but thats except-able (i hope your checking on that in the next bulid)

games work ok ok there is a lag :(

script 40d2ext works fine

i turned on the Bluetooth twice it turned on but i dont know about file sharing cuz had no other device to test

i got a weird problem the wifi goes of or something but when i open settings its on but when i press on wifi its shows a blank screen and after some time it comes back again :(

otherwise the roms awesome ...!
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Red Devil:
Ill test a bit more and I'll see if i get the WiFi error. If you could get a log would be even better. Cause I never got it till date. Thanks .. For Bluetooth you can try to stop the Bluetooth share process from app settings and it will then work
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] marko94:
and please make a more free ram :)

when i install facebook and messenger, they left me only 50 mb free :(
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Red Devil:
Facebook is known to take a lot of RAM.. ill show you an example

this is on sakindia123's s2 ..

172 MB :o.. and the ROM is gonna be tinier than before.. so dont worry .. there will be some more free RAM
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Red Devil:
Bump..

I have a relatively old build with just GPU oc and which is slightly smaller in size with some stuff stripped. I didnt upload it cause 1) I had just released the 1st build then 2) it doesnt have many changes so didn't upload. If anyone wants it please post on this thread itself.

Currently syncing AOKP with upstream changes..

No etas please.

Frankly I dont even expect an ETA with how dead this thread has gone :eek:
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] -NickHalden-:
lol..I was going to ask for an ETA :P :P
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] <JohnCarter>:
i too was xD :P
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Red Devil:
To those who are following the thread.. Changes have been picked up.. for now.. but wifi broke for some reason.. WIP. :)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Red Devil:
Yo everyone ! :D Fixed wifi like a baws .. well not really ;). I was experimenting with the wifi toggle fixes.. and turns out I forgot to revert a commit I made before.. :\ so thats why it was getting stuck..

I am giving an ETA for my next build it is tomorrow.. for sure..

Thanks a ton for the support guys..

Apart from this have another surprise for you guys... maybe in the next coupla days you will come to know.. :D cheers people !
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] marko94:
I'm glad to hear that :victory: :good:

can't wait for new build, any changes ??

I love surprise..:p
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Blue3125:
Right now I'm on cm10.1 alpha #6 using s2e and I want to use aokp features so I'm waiting for next build but can I directly flash the next version over this one without wipping any data or formating system ???
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Red Devil:
New build will be leaner with upstream changes. Its just the first milestone by aokp so there will be a few changes everywhere...

A full wipe is always recommended. If your coming in from last AOKP build then maybe no need to full wipe,, but if your coming in from cm. I would suggest you do a full wipe.. Wipe everything except /sdcard.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Red Devil:

---------- Post added at 01:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:24 AM ----------

For me too.. wifi don't work and kernel version not available :(

But,ROM looks very nice :)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Red Devil:
Thanks a lot peeps.. I'll just upload a kernel real quick. I think i did something wrong ...

Couldn't test WiFi yesterday cause my router is crapped.. Have only LAN ... I noticed kernel version is not appearing.. I thought that WiFi didn't work. Just flash terminals patch at the moment. I'll upload a kernel and see what happens.

Thanks a lot [MENTION=4718799]navinn[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4765089]marko94[/MENTION] ... I hope build is smooth.. Linaro + GPU OC is as smooth as it gets..

EDIT : Removed download link for now..Ill upload the kernel for those who have downloaded the ROM already... Uploading a new build will take less than half an hour .. so be glued peeps. ! :D

EDIT 2 : UPDATE

The fix for the file : Fix.zip..

Flash the file ONLY if you have flashed the old zip..

4.1.2 is better at ram and smoothness when compared to this...

hope it'll be fixed soon....:o

the performance and look are all good. apps are very simple which is the style i love.

it seemed there was an temporary method to solving the bluetooth,how to?

You'll get both from here...
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Red Devil:
Go to settings > apps > all > Bluetooth share

Force stop

Then it will turn on again.

If it doesn't happen try it again and again.. It will happen once by trial and error ..

Reboot is a sure shot way though ;)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] :
Sorry for OT :|

Bro, I could find GCC Linaro 4.8 but couldn't find SM Linaro :/

Sorry again
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] wsdyleon:
thank you!

wish the next build can be fixed!
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Red Devil:
I don't think this is a place to ask about tool chains. You have Google for that and as well as the search function. XDA has also provided us with a pm function. Please .

Yeah, same method, 2 partitions (SD-DATA and SD-CACHE,ext4),then flash zip for disabling journaling,wipe cache,system,data,dalvik,and flash rom,reboot,flash kernel,reboot,flash gapps :)

Review

OK guys, here is my review, this rom is smooth just like cm10.1.2, after removing camera widget from lockscreen (use lockscreen policy) and setting cpu min freq at 320 (i have used setCPU) it is so smooth :) and it doesnt decrease battery life, there is no "new" bugs so this is great, awesome build :D
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] sonulohani:
Hey can you please compile this rom using linaro toolchain?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] cuteitsme:

Hi Marko....can you please explain which zip you referring to for disabling journalling.... :confused
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] marko94:
This .zip.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] cuteitsme:
Hi Marko, Thanks but this zip is giving status as failed when I flashed, so I used the zip from this link. Hope this is OK.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1252028

Also I partitioned the memory cardg using this method. Is it right? Then flashed the kernel provided by you and now I am going to use Int2Ext
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] marko94:
Which error you give ?

Partition sd card ( 1 sd-data ext4 ,1 sd-cache ext 4,both primary )

You don't need to use int2ext or any other script if you use OC kernel :D
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] cuteitsme:
Hey thanks dear.... I got it....its working good now....:good:::)

[MENTION=4765089]marko94[/MENTION] Just one thing....whenever I am trying to open camera/gallery I am getting a message as process android.process.media has stopped. Any ideas....
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] marko94:
hmm..Try delete with root explorer in system/app gallery2.apk and install camera jb+ :D

P.S. When you use root explorer or other app , first make on setcpu 600 Mhz max

If you need help after that, just PM me :)

Hi [MENTION=4918174]Red Devil[/MENTION]/ [MENTION=4438404]7alvi[/MENTION]

I created two partitions SD-DATA(7Gb) and SD-CACHE(400MB) with the help of Mini tool partition wizard. Both are ext4 and primary.

I then flashed the journalling disabler zip, wiped everything and flashed the rom. Rebooted then flashed the aries oc kernel, then rebooted and then flashed the gapps.

Now the problem is that in Settings-Storage, I am only able to see the SD-CACHE partition. The Option to mount the SD card is disabled.

The process process.androil.media stops if I try to open gallery/camera or even when I am in the call.

Also I am not able to connect the phone to pc. When I click on Turn on Usb Storage it goes into loop for some time and then comes out to the same scrreen.

Can anybody help? :confused:
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] 7alvi:
First of all why the hell would you make 7gb sd-data partition..i mean like 1.5gb is more than enough..And what exactly do you mean by you are only able to see SD-CACHE partition..If you are using v2 of aries try using v1..Im using v1 (OC) and everything works fine for me.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] cuteitsme:
I am bit confused here....how many partitions do I need to create exactly? 2-3? I have a 8 GB card

To answer your second question , When I go to settings--> storage, it is only showing me the 400 mb partition I have created nothing else.

Also I am using V1 only....
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] 7alvi:
Your partiitons should be

Fat32 (any size) ---- EXT4 (this acts as /data partition. ~1gb is enough0 ---- EXT4 (70mb)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] sonulohani:
Which one is better aokp or carbon?

Right now i am using aokp and it has more freed ram compared to cm 10.1. But i havent installed carbon rom. But i heard too much of news abt its smoothness.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Red Devil:
Uhm , there is no such thing as abc is a better ROM than xyz .. Or uvw is the best ROM ;).

Try all and decide on your own. If someone has taken an effort to make right the code and make a new ROM and someone else has taken the effort to compile / theme it .. I guess it isn't that hard to try it. Hope you understand. Cheers bro :)
