Cool yeah I hear that. I think I have tried every form of install, and the only one that doesn't immediately lead to a systemUI FC after opening the camera or gallery is using the pure set up. Also I never install any other camera options I just stick to the stock. But I'll save some logs and shoot em over. I'm not huge on mods, so I never install xposed or custom kernels (although I did try that), I think this rom just hates my camera lol.

Only going to post test builds once.

This is badassery v4.0 prior to next release. Based on audism v16. Source is the same. I only changed default app install location. And what the kernel defaults to upon install. I also tweaked the crap out of the kernel VM settings.

Only issue is mtp. Which has been broken since v14. I'm going to diff and see if I can restore mtp.

Note on the next update. Dubbsy is still going over the updater-script for permissions errors as we believe that is accounting for some if not most of the issues people are seeing.

Aroma installer has been updated by its creator and he has fixed the scroll lag!!! This gives much better experience running thru the installer.

Do we have transparent status bar yet? I tried this Rom about a month ago and even with NOVA Launcher it still wouldn't make it transparent. I remember reading somewhere that we could possibly do by editing some build props?? Correct me if I'm wrong. That's probably the only thing holding me back at this point. I've gotten too accustomed and really like the transparent status bar. Thanks!

Just so I'm clear because I initially installed the stock kernel, when flashing a different custom kernel without using the aroma, I need to get the TW edition of a Kernel? For example, I'm planning to try KToonz so I should flash his TW 4.2.2 and not AOSP 4.2.2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
Correct. TW 4.2.2 kernels and GE 4.2.2 kernels only

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] arcane spade:
Thanks, this whole GE thing throws me for a loop, I'm used to the AOSP or Stock based only. But I'm glad there is a medium for now, can't stand TW, love AOSP but the phone apk keeps crashing on AOSP. So for now your option gives me a little of both and that is a lot better than nothing.

Thanks Dubbsy!

Any way to get the Samsung stock music player on this rom? I am looking to use one that works with the s- view cover and I can't stand poweramp.

Maybe. Grab the apk and try to push it to system, set permissions, and reboot.

I'm surprised no one has posted about badassery v4.0

Upon install with init.d folder emptied before install.

Got all the files/folders patched today. But couldn't get any to recompile. I'm wondering if me updating my SDK screwed up anything. I'll play with it more again tomorrow. May send the folders to hlx and see if his errors the same

Does 5.9 fix wake lock issues? I've been having it a ton on 5.8
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
What are your wake locks? Clean install? Did you allow Google to backup and restore? Do you have task killers?

I only ask because I never have wakelock issues. But if any app really is causing issues I just setup greenify to hibernate it

What problems have you seen with Google's auto restore? I've always felt like it was pretty safe, but I've seen you mention it a few times now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
I personally have had issues with the data they restore not being friendly with the new ROM. I don't trust it. I've had 2 friends I was dev'ing with for droidx and they had similar unexplained issues.

And really I don't know why I would think any different because batch restoring app data with root apps often causes issue with sync and wakelocks.

I won't tell people not to use it unless they are my real life friends. But i also expect people to figure issues out if they can be before reporting a "bug" that may or may not be a real bug.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Cruiserdude:
Since you asked, I used the BadAssery zip you posted. I mainly did it to get ausdim v16, however, as I don't typically like to peg my devices to their absolute maximum clockspeed. I've found that it may benchmark well, but it's constantly throttling itself so much that I get inconsistent performance. Remove the throttling, and you get persistent heat levels that could potentially shorten the life of the hardware. I've found a moderate overclock better for my use, as its still a noticeable increase in performance, but it's alot more consistent. So I opened up the zip and removed or edited most of your scripts, saving only the internal and external read ahead, and the thermal code. I couldn't find thermald, or for that matter, mpdecision, anywhere, so I assumed I should leave those scripts in place to make sure I didn't break thermal management. Cores are still sleeping properly even with the screen on, so everything appears good on the mpdecision front.

Just curious, but what all was changed other than the kernel parameters defined in the init.d scripts? Also, are the sysfs defaults still stock ausdim, or are they the same as your scripts? Again, just wondering, as I still see a bit of an increase in performance even though I removed most of your scripts and went back to my preferred defaults. (1998/interactive/row/undervolt/performanceGPU/600) And I don't need mtp, as it doesn't work well for me on my Kubuntu machines anyway. Good stuff though, I always enjoy playing around with new kernels.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cjkacz:
I had allot of issues with the kernel as well. My phone couldn't take it and constantly rebooted. I tried tweaking it down a little but I do not have the knowledge or skill to know what to mess with
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
Even if you deleted every init script I put in there it will still perform better than a regular v16 install. That is unless you unpack the ramdisk, remove my edits, and put it back together. :laugh: All of those edits are to the VM and how it handles data writing and times between writes.

And you don't need to remove the init.d scripts...just open the audism app and change what you want. :good: It will delete the script and replace it with the correct one for your setting. When I first started the kernel setup I was deleting the audism scripts in favor of my own. But the audism app which I wanted to keep, would overwrite my settings on boot. So I chose to use his scripts, but the ones I desired to be ran. That way the app would play nice.

The heat is due to the way I have the tunables setup to not throttle it's writing to the disc. It's to give it the highest i/o speeds I could feasibly get. Also, the GPU gov set to performance, the interactive go high speed load set to 70(normally 99), and I raised the thermal throttling so it won't throttle your CPU until it's hotter than normal.

I'd have to check again, but I'm fairly certain that audism removed mpdecision for a easier hotplugging setup. Again, I'd have to look. I don't mess with hotplug settings, ever. I've had not so great experiences doing that.

Runaway Google Services?

Hey Dubbsy - thanks for such an awesome rom. Just upgraded to 5.9 and am now having an issue with Google Services behaving erratically and consuming all of the battery (GNow tabs disappear, etc).

I did a full wipe before installing and didn't restore from Google. I did do a full restore from a Titanium backup though (from 5.7).

Should I have only restored apps (and not system data/settings)? I've tried nuking the cache/data for Google Services but it just goes right back into the loop.

Thanks in advance for any advice and thanks again for such a great rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sherdog16:
I would assume the full restore is your issue. Not a very clean way to do things so I would try a clean set up and see how that works for ya

Wow. After being away from AOSP since my Gnex days I must say. It's been less than six months but it's so clean. So smooth. So simple. So functional and uncluttered.

Hey, I had a few questions. I'm one of the poor souls on stock ME7. I thought hope was lost until I heard Hash was giving us a hand. However as I understand it, until Kexec is functional, SS will only be able to run ROMs that use the stock kernel.

I was under the impression that the G.P.E. ROMs weren't actually pure AOSP, but rather AOSP running on top of TouchWiz framework. Assuming that's the case, does that mean this ROM is running on the stock kernel and therefore could be made to run on SafeStrap?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
It's running a TW kernel. But not stock vzw TW kernel.

I imagine the safe strap stuff is going to cause a lot if headaches when it drops for ROM Devs. I'd like to be proven wrong... But we shall see.

If on mdk it would still be a really poor decision to upgrade to me7 when SS is released. SS is not a work around I'd consider. I'd sooner JTAG so i didn't have any stipulations or a useless 2gb of space used that I'll never touch again.

Don't get me wrong. Hashcode and SS are great for those on me7 who don't want to go through the hassd

Anyone have issues hearing sound during a Hangouts video call?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Itsmyphoneyo:
12 hours running and only 1 concern

Ive been running this ROM for about 12 hours now and everything seems to be great. Except 2 things... One has already been mentioned frequently so I'm not going to bring that up again (Hangouts video call audio quality).

I'm having an excessive battery drain from "Google Services" 43% Battery Drain. CPU total is only 5m 33s, Keep Awake is 1hr 14m 50s, GPS is 25s.

I came from a stock ROM that all I did was remove unwanted APK's and installed it. I did a full wipe, chose the pure google experience in Aroma, and did not restore a google account.

I do have Wifi on when connected and always keep my GPS on (it worked good with the Stock ROM I used before).

I did some research online (in addition to XDA) and found a number of people who said that they have had the same issue since the latest maps update and that uninstalling that update and then clearing Data and reinstalling from Google Play resolved that issue for them. However, the maps app that is installed has not been updated and is showing as the current version.

Does anyone have a suggestion or resolution?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ckelly33:
Can the "swipe down' tiles be modified (ad/remove change the order)?

I see this uses the 1 finger (for notifications) / 2 finger pull down (for tiles). On other ROMs, one finger pull down goes to tiles if there are no notifications - is there a setting for this?

Also, on occasion I get a text but I don't realize it because when I next use my phone, there is no icon at the top of the screen indicating a new message. Also when this happens, no LED notification either. Anyone else having this happen sometimes?

Clean wipe and flash. Custom (only to remove some apk's).

Thanks

While on the subject of the aroma installer, I played around and installed about half a dozen different ways yesterday but didn't play around with any combination very long.

Does it work (or did I forget it on my most recent install)? I really don't want to reinstall again just to get that feature. Is there another way??

Man, I'm gonna be afraid to use anything but this ROM seeing how it has been these last months. I was using Eclipse for the last few weeks and though I dug it retained the stock Android vibe (especially those wicked in-app transitions) something felt like it was..."missing" compared to this.

Sure enough I restore back to GE 5.9 and immediately notice a difference. There's just that little boost of speed here and everywhere, swift, elegant performance through every task, and just..."something" that makes it feel more efficient, more complete. I can't say it enough, but great job dubbsy.

1) Please have hlx split up the Google apps screen. That scrolling bug is annoying beyond belief. The Play Store should never be an optional install.

2) Google Play Music has been updated. Attached

3) Adobe Flash Player should be an optional addition. I've attached the newest version.

4) Hopefully one of the permission errors you're fixing has to do with the xPosed framework. See attached screenie.

GREAT WORK again gents. Thanks for you all you do. This thing is butter!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
The scrolling bug is fixed... That was one of the big reasons I wanted to push the update.

Did google play music update yesterday? As soon as I built an update I had to build again because Google released an update to Google Plus right as I began my first upload. :-| Wondering if they released it as soon as I fixed the G+.

We can add flash fairly easily

I was shuffling around permissions due to some apps being installed after permissions were set.

I probably need to move xposed to after the permissions because, I'm not sure if others have noticed it before or not, xposed is disabled if you run fix permissions from recovery. Leads me to believe that xposed uses it's own permissions when doing it's thing. I'll move the permissions around more today.

A lot going on. :eek:

LTE

Okay, first off I would like to say thank you for your hard work. The ROMs are amazing. Second, I'd like to apologize for asking this. I really resisted posting for a couple days now because you've answered it several times and put a comprehensive guide on the first page to answer these questions. However I am at a loss. I flashed your 8/30 build and I lost my LTE. I did not go into my network settings until after I noticed LTE problems. I did have LTE immediately after flashing, but not for long. I have tried everything you have posted to fix it with no luck. I read what you posted about rebuilding the NV, and that is where I am stuck. Google returns a bunch of information about unlocking the SIM, but nothing that really helps me (probably due to my own lack of skill/knowledge). If you or anyone reading this gets a chance, could you post either a guide on how this can be accomplished or point me in the right direction? I would really appreciate any help I can get. I usually consider myself relatively savvy in Android (compared to the general population, not the xda community), but I'll be the first to admit this is a little over my head. Thanks again for the great work.

Try backing up the phone info app with titanium or other and flash a stockish ROM. If you don't get lte in the new ROM, try toggling with phone info...don't just confirm the setting...change it, let the radio sync, then change it again back to what it should be. Might not work, but it's worth a try.
