Hi,

I downloaded your Rom 2 times and I had 2 times a different md5sum, but 2 times the same (18f1ed6910f6fcd548fd3efc527a3641), then in the first post.

Is the one in the first post an old one or went something wrong while uploading?
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] educk:
Hello!

Thank you very much for mentioning! Yes, you are right, the md5sum from OP was not updated for the current build (it was from build 6).

I checked and the correct one is:

18f1ed6910f6fcd548fd3efc527a3641 Liquid-JB-v2.7-UNOFFICIAL-ariesve_build7.zip

So, you downloaded the correct build. I'm sorry for this.

Liquid Smooth BUILD 8 & CWM & Performance Control App

Hey Guys!

Loads of releases today :victory: :

[B]28.06.2013[/B]

[B][SIZE="3"][COLOR="Red"]Released Liquid Recovery (CWM 6.0.3.2) - download from OP[/COLOR]
Released Performance Control App (already present in Liquid Smooth) - download from second post
[COLOR="DeepSkyBlue"]Released Liquid Smooth BUILD 8[/COLOR][/SIZE][/B]

[B]BUILD 8[/B]
*Fix HALO Settings (you can now disable HALO and the settings take effect)
*Privacy Guard Support
*Remove Torch app
*Remove Display Backlight timeout & Backlight on touchscreen from AriesParts
*Add Backlight timeout & Backlight on touchscreen to Performance Control (credits h0rn3t)
*Exclusive release of Phenom Kernel v4.0.7 UV (based on 3.4.51)
*[B][URL="http://pastebin.com/bAY6jaeX"]Liquid Smooth Official Changelog[/URL][/B]
*Sync to latest CM/LS sources

Some details about Liquid Recovery: It's built from Liquid sources, and it's basically CWM 6.0.3.2 built with the same optimizations and toolchain. (4.6.4 toolchain from Christopher83 and O3 optimization)

It was tested for a day and every function works as it should (USB Mounting, Wipes, Backup, Restore...).

My advice would be to reboot into the recovery from ROM or within recovery, not by key combo. (this gives extra stability).

Enjoy!

WOW!!! Excellent news! :)

I am flashing right now... Tnx once again Erik! :good:

Very smooth

Very smooth
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Laurentyu1995:
Flashed build 8 and no problems so far. Everything it's working flawlessly and it's smooth. Thank you Erik !!!
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] metalrules321:
Oh my god man. I just love this rom and the timely updates you provide. Thanks a lot mate, from all the i9001 users :D
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] JohnKersten:
Butter smooth

Eric,

I just flashed the latest version.

Very responsive ROM.

Thank you very much.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Jacol82:
Wi-Fi disconnects, freezes and restarts itself from time to time in the latest build...no problems apart from that, no soft reboots when connected to PC as mass storage :good:
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] :
Ooohh Erik, I've a big problem now. A few hours ago I've downloaded the Crystal JB ROM. Now I'm downloading this new build. WHAT SHOULD I FLASH NOW???:laugh:

Just joking, thanks a lot for your awesome work again and again. You're one of my favourite devs in this great community.:good::good::good:
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] jabrif:
Switch off the wifi modem. Delete the saved wifi connection from phone( it should be like 'Forget'). Now setup the connection with the WPS Button in your modem. It will help.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Jacol82:
Didn't help...reverted back to V7 - no Wi-Fi problems, just for the record.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] silviu_iliescu:
+1 and sometimes, cery often, my phone won't wake up. I can press the home and power button all I want...where can I find build 7? Thanks!!!
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] teachmeluv:
Im sorry to say but .. +1 (Wi-Fi loss and phone wake up bug) :(
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] educk:
That is a kernel problem(the device cannot wake up from deep sleep if WiFi is on, only after 30 sec) , I'm working on it. Please flash Phenom Kernel v4.0.6 or K^Kernel meanwhile. That will solve the problem.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Rhonin86:
Problems with build 8

Hi Erik,

after a backup i tried to flash your newest build, but i got stuck in the bootanimation. I came from stock CM10.1 did a facotry reset / wiped cache / dalvik then flashedbuild 8 - wiped cache and dalvik again (I think it was not necassary) and then flashed Gapps rev. 3 from Xellar. After starting the reboot i waited nearly 10 Minutes watching this beautiful bootanimation but nothing else happens :( So @ the moment i am not able to support you - i try again later - loading down the file again - and start without Gapps at first....

Regards

Rhonin
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] educk:
Mmm... Strange, try checking the md5sum next time you download.

And don't forget to change the kernel, the stock one has some problems with WiFi atm.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] jabrif:
Flashed and trying this new build right now.:)

--As Rhonin86 said the first boot stuck at bootanimatiom. A full data wipe, clearing cache and d cache helped.

--The above mentioned problem with wake up from deep sleep is not there. May be because im using a different kernal.

--Nova launcher is fast and responsive.:good:

--Halo is smooth. It's good you provide an option to disable it.

--Pie is totally different other ROMs tried with a second layer. It's awesome..! And there's lot's of choices of buttons to choose for 2nd layer..:good:

--The first thing i looked for was performance settings. Unlocked the development settings, but there was no performance settings. But, then i found it in in customize option..! A nice suitable place where it need to be. Good thinking.:good:

--All the features in settings are clearly and wisely organized..

--An option to select whether scan media on boot or not was really helpful.

On the whole, apart from the first boot struggle, it's all fine. Thank a lot..:D
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] godfather5:
Hi

where can i download gapps of this rom....as u said the gapps in op need to be updated, so where can i find the right gapps of this rom.

Thanks
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] janesz1981:
Its better if i use liquid cwn or doesn't matter? This rom slow down sometimes very strange why i use big mem phenom kernel. My problem with every build its slowdown sometimes. The usb storage slow too. If i plug in the cable need more time when my pc see the phone. If i turn off usb storage need more time when i use my phone normally. The usb icon appear very slow. Maybe need to reformat my sdcard? Thats why my phone hangs sometimes?
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] educk:
It depends... If your sd-card is full with a lot of stuff maybe you should consider formatting it.

Concerning the general slowness you are describing, there are some factors here too:

1. If you have many apps installed, try to greenfy them to prevent them from working in the background when you are not using them.

2. Wipe caches from time to time.

3. Try a clean install of the ROM, doing all the wipes.

4. If you use a Bigmem kernel, that can give some positive results.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Rhonin86:
SRY,

i've tried it twice with different Gapps, instantly flashing your former kernel, redownload the newest build but i don't succeed in flashing. Maybe it is cause by TWRP 2.2.1 ? I can't imagine another reason......

Has someone flashed the newest built with TWRP ?

Cheers

Rhonin
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] janesz1981:
okey. I love this rom and i think the problem is in my phone :D Educk this rom have built in option to use swap file?
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] JohnKersten:
Hi Rhonin86,

I use TWRP version 2.5.5.0 from 'buffo1987' (based on kernel version 3.0) and had no problem flashing this ROM/gapps.

What kind of problem do you got when flashing?
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] jabrif:
You can check the logs.. right..? to know of what reason the ROM isn't booting.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] godfather5:
where are the right gapps of this rom??
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] jabrif:
Its the same gapps of devconnection team's
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] hiej:
with TWRP 2.2.1 I'm not able to flash build 8 too.

During flashing it happens an error during symlinking.

Using lastest CWM all works fine.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Rhonin86:
OK THX for all your helpful posts :D

first:

After flashing and doing all the things i have mentioned i got stucked in the bootanimation - the bootanimation lasted more than 10 Minutes

I would provide some logs if someone can tell me how to get them ??? After 10 Minutes of bootanimation i pull the battery and started in recovery to restore my backup. And weired the backup couldn't even be started now ??? Befor it starts without any problem....

I have to flash the original ROM again and then it starts ???

I think today is not my day ;) maybe i choose another day to test again...

First i have to setup my phone again - otherwise i'll get some probs with the better part of me if she can't reach me ;)

Cheers

Rhonin

EDIT: I've overseen hiej's post - seems to be a problem of TWRP .....
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] jabrif:
I think you can use ADB to pull the log. You have to access recovery for that.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] educk:
OK, this definitively the strangest stuff I heard... I'm really sorry.

As heij says above, maybe the recovery is the problem. If it fails at some symlinks it may result in a boot hang. I would suggest a newer recovery. I used TWRP 2.5.0.0 until now, when I changed to CWM 6.0.3.2, both recoveries are working fine.

And about backup, there is no way a ROM flash can damage it as the backup is stored on the Sd-card and the ZIP only writes the boot and the /system partitions. Most probably another recovery failure but I don't want to rush into conclusions.

For debugging a boot hang, you can do it with:

adb wait-for-device

I hope this won't happen again.

Erik
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Rhonin86:
OK - so i have to upgrade my recovery - it comes to my mind this morning after getting all the unexplainable boothangs..... And from your posts i feel confirmed in my notion :o

So one more question - will i be able to use my old with TWRP 2.2.1 made backups with 2.5.0 or do i have to say good bye to my "old" life ?

THX in advance....

Rhonin
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] JohnKersten:
Just flash the TWRP 2.5.0 version and try to restore backups of 2.2.1, hope it's downward compatible.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] educk:
Well, in my opinion, you should be able to restore a TWRP 2.2.1 backup using TWRP 2.4 or 2.5.

But this is purely based on my intuition, you can try, nothing can go wrong. If the restore succeeds, I would suggest to delete the old TWRP folder (containing the backup) and remake the backup in the new recovery. I really hope you will successfully get back your "old life" too, as far as I know, that was the most stable system you managed to make so it would be a shame to lose it and have to recreate it.

Thank you too and sorry for whole story... After this, I will post in the OP a warning that older versions of TWRP could cause boot-hangs.

Erik
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] JohnKersten:
Eric,

You change someting in the ROm with makes it only working with 'Liquid Recovery (CWM 6.0.3.2)' ;)
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] educk:
Nope, I didn't, and one page back you said that you flashed this with TWRP 2.5.0.0.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] JohnKersten:
Dutch humor:D
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Laurentyu1995:
I've upgraded this awesome rom from build 7 to build 8 only wiping cache and dalvik then flashing rom+ dev con apps( version from 22/06) without problems....no bootloop.Regarding wifi problems i don't know because I'm using k^kernel. I've forgot to say that I'm using TWRP 2.5.0.0 which it's working very good
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] JohnKersten:
I confirm above statement, no problems with flashing ROM using TWRP 2.5.0.0.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] silviu_iliescu:
The exact same thing happened to me when I used PA 3.60. Out of the nowhere. I was running CWM 6.0.3.0 Touch recovery. I was using it for a long time and one day i tried to flash a kernel and the phone won't start. Also the problem with the backup was there too. Then with the same recovery I flashed LS Rom and it workes fine. With PA now even after a full wipe I wasn't able to get it to work...
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] godfather5:
hi

need help i m also stuck at the liquid sooth boot animation...from the past ten minutes.

i m using CWMRecovery-6.0.1.2...is this recovery ok??

please help...!!
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] JohnKersten:
Can you tell exactly the steps you made to flash this ROM, so more specific what you did.

Which ROM version did you have before flashing
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] godfather5:
the steps mention in the op:-

Do a nandroid backup

Put ROM and Gapps on the sdcard

Reboot into recovery (CWM or TWRP)

Full wipe (wipe /data /cache /dalvik-cache and format system)

Flash ROM and Gapps

Fix permissions, reboot system

previous rom -broodrom R3 4.1.2
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] educk:
Which gapps are you using? If are those from OP it means another recovery failure.... Damn, I'll have a look at those symlinks, I just don't know why on some recoveries it works and on others it doesn't....
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] JohnKersten:
What I should try: flash Liquid Recovery (CWM 6.0.3.2) and try to flash again with above procedure.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] godfather5:
no i downloaded the devcon gapps:- DevCon-Gapps Pack Rev.3 MD5SUM: df8607b014165ffd456a15ab608da700

from the thread:-http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2315448
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] educk:
Could you please try once again with full wipe and flash ROM without gapps to see if it boots?

If it boots, flash gapps from the OP of this thread.

If still doesn't work, you will have to change the recovery to CWM 6.0.3.2 or TWRP 2.5.0.0

Let me know what you managed.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] jabrif:
I flashed successfully with cwm 6.0.3.2 and Devcon gapps which i downloaded earlier to flash their release 2. And of course i got stuck at boot animation at first. It solved by full data and cache wipe.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] godfather5:
yes it boots without the gapps....:good:

let me flash the gapps from the OP of this thread.

thanks erik:victory:
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Rhonin86:
Further information

Hi Erik,

it seems as if the DevCon-Gapps don't work together with this ROM. I tried to flash it again after flashing TWRP 2.5.0.0, but it didn't start with the GAPPS. After Reflashing ONLY the ROM it boots. Restarting to Recovery didn't work at first but after a second try it did the job. I flashed first Rev.3 without success and after wiping Rev. 2 without success - I encountered my meanwhile well known boothang....

So for now i try to restore and will try maybe later....

Have a nice WE my friend

Rhonin

EDIT: Former TWRP - Backups are not recognized - the new recovery seems to be very instable on my phone - it suddenly shuts down during flashing - restoring doesn't work due to this behaviour - but i succeded in flashing back to TWRP 2.2.1. Now i'm on my way to restore

What's that ? E:System is not installed ??? - preventing reboot :eek:

Reflashing devCon CM10.1 gives me the possibility to boot -> my google account is missing, due to the missing GAPPS -> back to recovery and trying again to restore my "old" life -> Success :D

OMG - so much fun in the morning :D
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] educk:
And we getting Official

Hey folks!

Guessie guess what ?

Earlier today (about 7 hours ago) through the Liquid Smooth Legacy Project, WE GOT OFFICIAL SUPPORT !!!

Check it out --> https://github.com/LegacyLiquidsmooth

Before opening the Champagne I would like to thank everyone for help, support and feedback.You guys are great!

Unfortunately, I will be out of town next week so the first official Liquid Smooth build will come on Friday July 5th.

Also, thanks to deadman96385 and theapant for including me in this project.

See you guys on Friday!

Regards,

Erik

P.S. The problems from this morning regarding boot-hangs were not caused by the recovery. It was something wrong in the gapps package from DevCon. Xellar already fixed it and will publish the build soon, until then, you can use the gapps from OP, they are 100% safe.

Thank you too! You are always very kind and helpful, and a good friend :)

Thanks to everyone else too, please don't forget that this is our victory, not mine, to have 2 officially supported ROM's.

Sorry I'm out of "thanks" for today so here is something to make up for it:

Attached Performance Control v2.0 with some great features (credits and thanks goes, as always, to h0rn3t)

Added OOM Menu - ability to fully customize the Android Task Killer

Push to /system/app/ and give correct permissions (644)

Enjoy!

when I turn off the screen my phone doesn't wake up, I'm using the standard Kernel.

I would like to use this rom to test it =).

Guys, for the 100th time... I did a mistake in the stock kernel, flash Phenom Kernel v4.0.6 or K^Kernel or DevCon Kernel or whatever...

You don't have to downgrade.

In the next build this issue will be fixed.

Finally the test starts

Hi Erik,

with the invaluable help of the DevCon-Team i finally succeed in flashing your latest build - but i manipulated it a little ;) i exchanged your latest "buggy" kernel with your latestest stable one, integrated the newest PerformanceControl and flashed the so patched ROM directly without problems :D

While flashing the newest DevCon Gapps i didn't encounter any problem - THX and CREDITs to XeLLar* and the whole TEAM also for the recovery :good:

So for now i gonna test the patched build 8 and collect some experiences to share :o

And as promissed i'll create the list for the menu points that are not translated properly.... BTW: If you connect via USB the mobile to PC the SlimRom-background still appears ....

Have a nice week

Rhonin

I could provide the patched ROM but only if Erik allows it - because he had to suffer from any mistake i could have made unintentionally ;)

[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] educk:
Hey Rhonin!

Yes, I would appreciate that!

Currently I'm not at home until Friday.

And if you are using CWM recovery by DevCon team, please remember to reboot into recovery from ROM or within recovery to avoid shutdowns.

Thank you!

Erik
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] ecastel:

LiquidSmooth 2.7 build8a - intermediate release

So guys,

i hope everything went right so that you can flash the patched build 8 without any problem. For me it worked without any problem.

What is the difference to the original build 8 ?

Educk's kernel 4.06 exUV BigMEM is implemented

The new PerformanceControl 2.0 is integrated

This is only an intermediate inofficial release ! But it should prevent the occured bugs and and enhance the settings of the performance Control within the Settingmenu.

Here is the link (ZippyShare)

Enjoy this version and please report your experiences either good or bad

Have a nice evening
