Atm no I have too much already and not powerful enough hardware.

Here 's a guide I wrote ----> http://xda-university.com/as-a-developer/porting-aosp-roms-using-source-code

If you need more help ask [MENTION=4148153]TJKV[/MENTION] or me .... Good luck it wouldn't be easy because PA is mostly pure AOSP so a lot of CM stuff will be needed.
[Defy Android Development] lexer98:
I Have a i5 2300 and my friend has a 3770k @ 4,8 Ghz is faster than the roadrunner with a rocket in the as* :silly:, maybe i can help you building and uploading your roms ...for learning proposes ;)
[Defy Android Development] dkv2222:
For some reasons I can't find any options regarding lock screen and others on slim Bean 7.8 :(
[Defy Android Development] xufooo:
maybe in the security setting??
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
If you're talking about different types of lockscreens ( Honeycomb, Blackberry) like there was in 4.1.2 then you won't find it as the Slimbean team removed it a long time ago... Anything else relating to the lockscreen you need to find yourself
[Defy Android Development] dkv2222:
Like different lock screen options regarding widgets and stuff.

Camera widget and stuff like that....

Illusion Perfect ROM, Excellet!
[Defy Android Development] razorinc:
I Installed lateast Illusion rom and I have problem with button brightness, it s ultra bright... How to change this, changing the settings does not effect this...
[Defy Android Development] hotdog125:
Its a known bug.
[Defy Android Development] jassi32:
go to settings --- interface --- lockscreen ,

you will find everything there ..........:good::good::good::good::good:
[Defy Android Development] TJKV:
Tease
[Defy Android Development] dkv2222:
Well here you go. :/

I knew that but can't find it.

PS I found it in security. Then some lock screen option there. *bad*
[Defy Android Development] yogesh324:
hi I m using illusion rom and the bug is due to init.d not working also because of this bug the baseband switcher in settings is not working so to fix this just copy the ramdisk file from cm10.1 quarx build and place it in system/bootmenu/2ndboot folder thats all
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
Sorry for the delay on the fix for init.d in illusion I will upload the fix now as it's not always the ideal thing to use another rom's ramdisk because they can be very different and cause the rom not to boot luckily not in this case :p. Thanks for the tip yogesh324 as I don't have to reup a new build now.

View attachment 2168661

Flash this in recovery and it should be fixed ---> Added to O.P

Also if anyone want's an updated kernel they can flash Blechd0se latest from the CM-10.1 thread
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
Tease V2
[Defy Android Development] Shubhamqweasd:
just want to ask --

is scrolling in system settings while in hybrid mode smooth ??

or it lags like cm10.1 ??
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
It lags :( ... PAC4.3 is not really friendly with the defy hardware this time around. I had to stop all Wallpaper apks(PA's, CM's, AOKP's) and Video Editor from building so the rom will successfully compile because it was too big for the system.img. The problem with PAC is that it is very resource heavy because it has a very big framework and settings due to having PA,CM and AOKP in one rom.

Root-Box IMO is a better option but it's doesn't have all the options from all 3 but it has most and works well. The issue is it doesn't boot properly so has some weird issues :p

So it if I can get Root-Box to work as intended then I will probably drop PAC-man.

Currently Slimbean is the only one that I think is ready to go, the PAC-man team are starting to get in gear and are bringing up and fixing some stuff that is broken in 4.3, illusion rom has been rebased and itsmikeramsay( Rom maker) is busy getting it up to speed for 4.3, Bajee (Rom maker) for Root-Box is currently on break but with start 4.3 development soon.

So it won't be some time till you see the first builds from me.

[MENTION=4148153]TJKV[/MENTION] when Slimbean is ready PM me again so I can make the thread.
[Defy Android Development] sUpErwHoO:
Kayant, will using swap help with build performance???

Sent by an alien.
[Defy Android Development] TJKV:
It doesn't help here. I have 8GB of RAM and a 10GB swap partition, and I have never seen swap usage go beyond 200MB no matter what I am doing. It's at 200 when i boot up, when I have a million browser tabs open, and when I'm compiling and watching videos and browsing at the same time.

As for Slimbean alpha, it works perfectly except for one major bug, it charges only through AC. It detects a Computer USB port but continues to discharge, doesn't mount SD card on the computer, no adb access either.
[Defy Android Development] yogesh324:
Hi everybody I wanted to increase my vol increase steps so I modified framework of illusion rom to use 45 steps for vol and 15 steps for other and 5 steps for call vol... I thouht I would share it here thats I m aatachin it here if anyone needs it
[Defy Android Development] sUpErwHoO:
So probably other then getting kernel version 3.x to work, improvement in performance is difficult??? Any who, kudos guys!! I'm happy :) thanks

SlimBeam Camera issue

Hi,

I am on latest SlimBean. I have a defy (Red lens)

After around 3 weeks of useage My camera is starting to act weird.

Its clicking pics but not saving them. The camera takes the pic,the pic slides to the right. But when opening gallery its not there. And at times like this the phone tend to reboot.

Can anyone tell me why this is happening?
[Defy Android Development] antarix:
Try to wipe data of gallery and see if it works.
[Defy Android Development] danhtho:
why is slim bean not have camera ?
[Defy Android Development] delight535:
Yeah, I see. Thank you!
[Defy Android Development] jassi32:
i am about to buy a new sd-card , will Class 10 works fine with 4.2.2 + roms on defy ??

i am on slimbean at the moment and in future , will move Slimbean only based on 4.3 ....

can any1 help me out ?
[Defy Android Development] TJKV:
Why do you say it doesn't have camera?

I don't see any connection between sd card rating and android version. If you want to know if the Defy works with class 10's in general, best bet is the Accessories forum.
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
PAC 4.3 is done and in a good condition but I will wait for a bit as the PAC team will probably by ready for a release soon and am testing it for a bit...
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
I need some suggestions

I know many people love PAC but we all know it's quite heavy on our defy with very high ram usage compared to other AOSP rom (CM, Slim) and heavy resource use. I will still release PAC but it will probably be one version if people agree with the above after testing it. Right now am thinking f replacing it with pure PA. I would like RB 4.3 when it comes out but it probably will have the same issues as am having with it now :( .... So give me some suggestions and I will make a poll to make it easier to see what everyone wants......

I will upload the first build I have of PAC 4.3 tomorrow or so there are so nice changes in review atm so people can see and feel what to expect of PAC 4.3 and decide if it should be replaced or not.
[Defy Android Development] ldiomedi:
Hi, Kayant. I'm waiting since you start with 4.3 for Pac. I'll be one of the firsts flashing it. If I have to suggest some rom, my votes are for pure PA. It have what I expect from a rom and more. Now, waiting for this release of PAC. :good:
[Defy Android Development] level_666:
Since I preffer an usable phone than an slow phone with a tons of features, i'll vote for RootBox to come out, or Illussion; I've heard a lot of nice reviews of their speed. [MENTION=4173406]Kayant[/MENTION] why do you say RootBox it's like PA? have you tested it?
[Defy Android Development] souviktherocker:
when i use any aaps which needs superuser permission its shows "

superuser request failed

" :confused:and notified me that "

check your device is a rooted device or not

":confused: please help me to solve this problem. i'm useing mb526.​
[Defy Android Development] hotdog125:
Flash the fix through recovery as stated in the ROM OP. You've actually quoted the OP without noticing the fix mentioned?:silly:
[Defy Android Development] antarix:
I'll be waiting for pure PA.

Root box will be something out of the blue if you are able to make it work.

I don't mind pac but it takes everything and sometimes response is too bad.

Still I'll use any rom posted in this thread cuz I don't find much difference between response time of the custom roms.

I think to use features we need to have patience at times cuz we were stopped at GB and quarx led our phone to a new path.

Now you're giving us almost every custom rom which makes my day.

Please don't stop developing.

Hope the roms you're working on boot up and keep on working because I don't mind a couple of late response in a day.
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
Yh i have ;) but not for long. I say that because it has features from all three in some shape or form but its since fast and smooth maybe because of use a cleaner base (AOSP) or supposed to CM which needs to support a lot of devices... Or because bajee is a beast coder - who knows :p

Don't worry I won't stop anytime soon as long as I have time to compile and do school work :)

And don't worry guys RB is an extra that will come where its fixed... Am looking for another ROM to possibly replace PAC if needed.
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
Amazing right :( :banghead:
[Defy Android Development] antarix:
I think replacement of pac with RB will be much better or with pure PA.
[Defy Android Development] jassi32:
Xylon and LiquidSmooth roms --- they are known for speed and fluidity

I heard about them alot from my N4 friends ......
[Defy Android Development] UncleDan:
My vote would be 1. Pure PA 2. a new minimalistic ROM or SB.
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
Xylon is the mainly new base for Illusion in terms of the frameworks and settings (Backbone of the rom where all the features come from) but itsmikeramsay (Rom maker) also uses sources from AOSP, CM, Slimbean but the reason for the speed is mainly due to the GCC, bionic optimizations that our device can't work with because we use a 2.6.32 kernel and as we has seen with Blechd0se using anything above GCC 4.4.3 for the kernel actually slows down our device however, it should be okay for compiling the rom with anything above the default 4.6 which I think the new illusion uses 4.7. The bionic optimizations are based around the articheture of the cpu and since our device uses the old outdated cortex a8 we don't see any of the new ones used by many devices including the N4 because they use cortex a9 like so ---> https://github.com/ParanoidAndroid/...mmit/465a000e0c9f91016a2dbf98b122761b5d3422f3
[Defy Android Development] vedang81:
My screen stopped working .....only some part after status bar of the screen.....after using PAC rom for 1-2 months.

I read about the commanly known problem "digitizer" ............may be that would the only problem.

But i doubt its cause of rom ...because the same problem is with my HTC Wildfire S........Using the features of PAC i got impressed and flashed the PAC rom in it........and after 2-3 months it's screen also started becoming unresponsive :crying:

Please help me guys...lost both of cells :crying: :crying:
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
When since I haven't gotten any other suggestions apart from AOSPA, LiquidSmooth and PA is winning I decided to go ahead and start porting.... The hard work is done now to sync and compile it :)... See you guys in a bit...
[Defy Android Development] retekevo:

Hey kayant ...will you be doing the latest paranoid android ..with holo?

Would be something exciting and interesting :)
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
No as I don't have the time my computer takes about 5 hrs to compile one ROM and I also don't have the hard drive space required for another ROM.... When the PA team release Halo it will be merged into PAC, root box and other AOSP ROMs.... It hasn't been released yet (source is not available atm) ;)
[Defy Android Development] mohan vinay:
rom was very nice and smooth

pa setting feels awesome
[Defy Android Development] pgreed:
I encounter a problem: after installation (from CM10.1 last version -wiped cache and dalvik) an error message -"unfortunately android.process.acore process has stopped". What can be done? THX.

LE .. and I can't make or receive calls!
[Defy Android Development] hotdog125:
The ROM felt sluggish the first time, so I started from scratch. Then it was smooth and seemed as if everything was fine. Only my home button didn't work and quick settings, too, didn't work.

Anyways thanks Kayant! Will be my new ROM.:D
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
Full wipe is needed when switching between AOSP ROMs
[Defy Android Development] Pottkopp:
wow cool thing mate! I'll test it later! :)
[Defy Android Development] abhifx:
Just delete data of contacts and contact data app.
[Defy Android Development] pgreed:
:) that solution I've found myself on the net but unfortunately even contacts apk and contact data disappear. I've done a factory reset from twm and reinstall. Work.

Kayant, in settings can you make that the text occupies all the row not just a half? It will be better because Defy screen is not to large,
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
Hybrid properties is there for a reason ;) You can change the dpi and layout ui
[Defy Android Development] retekevo:
Hí!

Too high memory usage here. About 20-30M free. Just some apps installed.
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
Yep thats the down side to PAC in 4.1.2 it was heavy but in 4.2.2 it is heavier and with the fact the we are still use a 2.6.32 kernel doesn't help and also low ram, slow processor small system space etc.....
[Defy Android Development] pgreed:
I think that I don't make me clear.: When push the Settings icon at this ROM the screen that appear by default (and I dunno how to change it) is a two panels style which is OK for tablets but not for phone. I like to make it like old fashion -one panel. How to do it? In hybrid even if I choose Stock UI the two panel style remains.
[Defy Android Development] TJKV:
In hybrid head to the Apps panel, choose the Settings app, and click the reset icon on the top right or manually change the layout to 360p.

---------- Post added at 02:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:20 AM ----------

android.process.acore (Search Applications Provider) hogs a lot of that memory, probably to give PAPrefs a list of installed applications so it can do it's thing...but it still perfoms really well, can't tell any difference between cm10.1 and this :)

EDIT: Remove the PA tile from the quick settings panel and kill off android.process.acore, and it won't launch again, that saves that much ram :)
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
Thanks for the tip added F.A.Q in the pacman OP.... Yep feels a lot smoother now ^_^
[Defy Android Development] retekevo:
It's ok, but after restart, the process starts again... :)
[Defy Android Development] ldiomedi:
Great. Nice to read that. Btw, is there any chance to try the 4.3 pac rom you builded recently?
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
Yh I will upload both at the same time probably but am waiting for one more patch for PAC which is still in review before it's gets merged
[Defy Android Development] lexer98:
Oh men !! ... :crying::crying::crying::crying: thanks !!
[Defy Android Development] level_666:
What do you mean with "both", PAC and LS?
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
PAC and PA.....
[Defy Android Development] antarix:
waiting for both.... :)
[Defy Android Development] TJKV:
Well new Slimbean (4.2.2) uploaded but honestly not many changes compared to 7.8, just uploaded it for the "Final 8.1" tag. If you are on 7.8 you can most probably skip this, unless you really want that "I'm on the latest" feeling :P

Still wrestling with 4.3 SB, mostly frameworks_base.
[Defy Android Development] xufooo:
Thank you for your work!

There is a problem in 7.8, when connect as usb mass storage, my phone reboot...
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
I will help out in a bit.... Fighting with PA over here ;)

[MENTION=4148153]TJKV[/MENTION]: I am using Slim-mb526-4.2.2.build.7.8-UNOFFICIAL-20130728-1557 build, but I cannot find the option to long press back button to kill application. I am missing something, or Slimbean does not contain this feature anymore?
[Defy Android Development] TJKV:
Settings->Navigation->Hardware->pick long press back, choose kill
[Defy Android Development] delight535:
You are right. I didn't think of that. Thank you!
[Defy Android Development] Neurom707:
Any news!?
[Defy Android Development] TJKV:
Yup. I have SB4.3 running fully stable, kayant has PAC, PA, RootBox, Carbon, Illusion all based on 4.3 running just as stable. Also Blechd0se has fixed ION, bluetooth, and video recording (Zero stutters). But we decided not to share it with everyone because we are awesome like that.

In other words, we'll post here when there is news, no need to ask.

Darn it!! You had me completely fooled, I was reading wide-eyed when I got to the last sentence :( :D

Still, I've got nothing but love and respect for you guys :) :o :silly:

[Defy Android Development] yogesh324:
[MENTION=4173406]Kayant[/MENTION] i m currently using illusion rom and read in cm 10 thread that flash videos are working now (posted by frozenwaverider post no 17388 for latest build by sunnyqueen) so maybe there is some update to make flash videos work in our rom too if possible... thanks
[Defy Android Development] TJKV:
Oh I'm calm...that was just humor. It may have been at your expense, but humor nonetheless...
[Defy Android Development] Antiga Prime:
True, but his response was funner, given your question. You actually thought they'd have made important progress and even had working builds, and not post them? Or worse yet, post them somewhere else?

It was not personal and I'm sure you can appreciate the sarcasm in the response, considering you're posting in the Development forum asking for updates. :laugh:
[Defy Android Development] Neurom707:
Wasn't asking for an update, was simply asking if they'd ran into any new issues, your response was not needed
[Defy Android Development] TJKV:
New issues? You should have said so. Yes...adding this and this = bootlooping. Not sure why. So have to disable FM for now.

Apart from that the usual issue with usb. When plugged into a computer the phone doesn't charge. It brings up the "USB Connected" notification but if I click "Turn on USB Storage" it appears to connect but doesn't actually come up in the PC. Logcat is also clear, no visible errors. Also no adb access. However the phone itself can access the sd card, eg file managers etc. I use the slim file manager to install terminal emulator and get logs.

The phone charges through AC though, and everything else works as expected. No sarcasm/humor this time, but if you can help then by all means you are welcome to. I haven't pushed the updated local_manifest.xml to github yet, I'll do that soon.
[Defy Android Development] Neurom707:

Im on xperia d 4.1

I wanna install this rom

What i wanna know is

Can i play games on this rom ?

Like pes2012 and small games

Not hd games

And what are the bugs in this rom ?

Should i install slim bean or pac man ?

I wanna try something new

I m bored of Cm10

Pls help me out
[Defy Android Development] giciu:
[MENTION=4854448]hotdog125[/MENTION] thx :)
[Defy Android Development] gyorgyszemok:
Judging by the performance of Temple Run 2 on my Defy with Illusion ROM (Illusion = graphically tweaked SlimBean with a whole lot of settings for the interface), you can run games without a doubt :). My advice is SlimBean or Illusion, it's a pretty lightweight and fast ROM. Bugs are same as Quarx's CM10.1 so read that thread... (Mostly with Bluetooth, a very little delay on wake-up)...
[Defy Android Development] dkv2222:
I have an unusual bug where when I un install an app the phone will restart.
[Defy Android Development] Rawwr:
Ok

Thanks for the help

Last thing i wanna know is

If i flash illusion rom

Do i need to flash that root access fix ?

And which kernel should be flashed ?

Thanks a lot for helping me out
[Defy Android Development] gyorgyszemok:
You don't need any kernel flash as far as I know! I came from CM10 too!

First flash illusionrom, then flash init.d fix (if you meant that by root access, yes, you HAVE to flash that), than flash gapps, and you are done.

First boot is VERY SLOW! So don't be scared just wait.

edit: another thingie.. the ROM looks AWESOME with this theme: Hologlass beta
[Defy Android Development] Rawwr:
Thanks a lot

Gonna flash it tomorrow morning :D
[Defy Android Development] Rawwr:
So installed this rom yesterday

Its such a wonderful rom

Thanks kayanat

I m on the same rom

No such bugs for me
[Defy Android Development] TJKV:
I was getting a little bored, so to make things interesting I thought I'll upload the most recent SB4.3 build I have made. Find it here.

Try it only if you don't mind charging using the wall charger, and if you are okay with rebooting to the Bootmenu or the Recovery to mount your SD Card to your computer.

It is BETA, no guarantees it won't explode in your hands or pants. Well no such guarantees with ANY custom ROM, but more so with this build :p
[Defy Android Development] Antiga Prime:
[MENTION=4173406]Kayant[/MENTION] or [MENTION=4148153]TJKV[/MENTION]: Would any of you know if the init.d fix (aka., the ramdisk) posted by Kayant for the Illusion ROM also work with older Slimbean builds that haven't had this fix?
