Hi guys, how are you? I'm currently downloading this rom to try it, i've always used cm 11 and actually i am using now the markox kk build, but i decided it was time to try another rom and this one is really popular and from what i have seen, it's kinda great

can you tell me your experience with it and why did you choose it? just little things, i don't want to make the thread an offtopic one.

and a kinda more important question, which kernel are you guys using with it? i think many people is using dorimanx right? on my current build i'm using gustavo, but i don't know if it can be used on slimkat

anyway if you can tell me that, and just how the battery life is going on this rom, maybe a screenshot would be nice!

i hope i'm not too demanding, thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] wassk:
well if u ask me, my favourite...its fast and smooth...doesnt have to much mods...i didnt experience any problems with this rom...things that doesnt work are same as in slimrom...but i can say everything is working great...for kernel i use the one that comes with rom...dori is also good but sometimes it drains my battery to quickly...so i rather stay with stock one...and sometimes i had litle problems with wifi on dori kernel...but thats just my opinion...specialy coz i never use stweaks...try it man...probably u wont regret it.:good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Spaulding89:
You can use Dorimanx, Gustavo vor Apolo. It's ure choice ;)

I use this Rom because it's fast, stable, slim, smooth, not overload with useless Features. Short answer it's the best rom ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] velocity90:
I tried it and it seems like a decent rom. Personally im back to neatrom at the moment but I don't notice any difference to be honest. Is there? Look exactly the same.

I highly recommend apolo light.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Twiq:
Of course it's similar, because neatrom is based on latest slimkat ?

There are some diffs, some immediate like network I/O meters on status bar, some hidden, like rebuilt with more powerful GCC and with more optimization. On the other side, _Sale_ applied different patches for other topics. But, they both share slimkat engine :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Facuu:
thanks for so many replies! i'm actually testing out slimsaber latest build right now, i've always heard neat roms have the greatest battey life but i just don't like the stock sammy view, i mean the touchwiz , and for what i've seen neatrom looks like that

I'm on stock everything right now, and even though it works geat (it really does) i think battery coud be an issue? but i'm not sure, 1 hour awake for listening to music, 30 mins screen on time and 3g drained 20% of my battery, and some times the phone gets kinda hot under the camera, especially when the screen is on.

also another weird thing that happened to me, i flashed the rom and gapps, and i had hangouts, and play store and gmail and google play music, that didn't sounded like minima to me so i reflashed the rom without gapps to check if play store could be there, as it was the only one i wanted, but it wasn't, so i flashed gapps again and it only flashed play store like if it would have read my mind lol, no google play music, no hangouts, no gmail, just the store. why could have that happened? (Both times i did a clean flash btw)

thanks!

Edit: i had a random freeze and the battery drained to 68% , i think we started with the left feet with this rom, but i'll be patient
[Galaxy S II Android Development] velocity90:
Neat looks exactly the same. Will test slimsaber again.

First Google needs to fix the orange wifi no connection bug. Googled it and it's kitkat related. Nothing works. Reset my router, installed other modem, another rom, change heartbeat for wifi to 8 mins.

Hope it's fixed in 4.4.3

For good battery I must not install Google + (fingerprint wake lock, whatever it is) and flash Apolo light. Modem can also make a big difference. Install Better battery stats and see what drains your phone.

Screen on drain is approx 20% per hour. Screen off I can get 0.6 to 0.8.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fubo73:
No orange issue with wifi up to now. Working ok with stock, apolo, gustavo kernels. Tried on different routers (mine is DGN2200v4 configured for 300mbps).

camera

Hi everyone,

After had tried some rom I come back on this Rom last version. After istallation and restore all app with titanium, I played with camera app and it start to crash even after reboot and a cache / dalvik wipe.

As this Rom was one of my first rom installed, now it seems to be different from point of view of quickness to answer of commands.

Another strange thing it's happened, when after a outgoing call, device start (auto) two outgoing call. Infact then I was called from one contact like he had missed it.

thanks

guys is this normal?

i'm having this kernel wakelocks

wlan_rx_wake, consuming 14%

l2_hsic, with 5,3%

sec-battery-monitor, 3,5 %

wlan_wake 3,0 %

monstly wlan_rx and l2 i want to know what they are and whay are they draining so much batter, i thing battery monitor is called by bbs, and wlan_wake is wifi with screen on, any info on this?

7 hours with almost no usage and i have only 30% battery left

[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
use minimal gapps and if you don't need other google apps, just freeze them with tb.

the random freeze could be related to sdcard fuse bug or kitkat problem itself.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
wifi is fine. try to delete the wifi supplicant folder manually, somewhere in data/etc/

i'm not using g+ so can't comment. i heard some users have battery draining issue with it. not sure what when wrong.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
slimsaber and neatrom aosp are based on slimkat. not sure which gcc toolchain is being used on neatrom. i'm using the sabermod one and i usually include more aosp fixes than official slimkat. i'm also add zzmoove governor into stock kernel and some others small patches. there are also some slimbean features that are not yet available in slimkat.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] guitarfreedom:
Sorry for OT but I'm using slimsaber 4.2.2 and I'm very satisfied. Thanks FJ ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] velocity90:
Tried that, didn't work. The wifi problem is in kit kat. From now on unlock your phone and instantly pull down to see toggles. Sometimes they are orange. When they turn white I receive my messages. I googled it and there are hundreds of complaints about this. Mostly nexus 5 users (one of the first kitkat phones).

I checked a moto g which also stock runs kitkat, same issue.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Twiq:
That issue aren't only happening in kitkat builds, but also in older builds.. And the problem is in the Google Services (google login,google services framework) so in short, if you're seeing orange wifi/mobile data icons that means you're not connected to google servers.

What could cause it? There are plenty things to check here..

1. GAPPS issue, try removing google accounts then clearing data for google services framework, then google play services and optionally google playstore. Then reboot. Add back your google account.

2. Network issue, check your apn settings

3. Will add later

I'm not sure why it matters if the tile is orange or white... My tiles are NEVER white, and I get all messages and instant messages. They are always orange because I'm never connected to the google servers, I disabled the un-needed google services as detailed in the first few posts of the bettetbatterystats thread.

Edit : I guess it could be an indication that whenever your screen is off, your data is also off.. That would equate to your symptoms.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] hawaiisteve:
Your problem is very strange and you've had it for awhile judging by your previous posts. The strange thing is the orange tabs are for Google services but your past posts mention whatsapp, which shouldn't be affected.

Seems like you are completely losing connectivity with screen off. Just making sure, but you do know about the settings>WiFi>advanced menu, right? I'm assuming you do.

Have you looked at battery stats and BBS to see if your WiFi is on and working with screen off?

Really seems like you have no connection at all when your screen is off...

Meant to quote [MENTION=5223852]velocity90[/MENTION]
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Twiq:
Actually it's just an indicator that we're connected to google server, i also disabled some receiver and services from GSF and Play Services so i always have orange icons, but that doesn't stop me getting notifications from other apps.

Orange colored doesn't always mean that you're not getting access from network. Only from google login services on our device. And that also doesnt mean we can't access google sites.

And yes, like Hopper8 said, when you're connected to wifi, your connection will be turned off (unless you set it to always on)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Hopper8:
Haha everyone just loves quoting me ;) [MENTION=4546441]Twiq[/MENTION] says what I didn't say very clearly regarding the colours. That's how it is.

Summary for [MENTION=5223852]velocity90[/MENTION] (more notifications for you :p) is that you've either got data off which is why nothing comes through (whether its intentional or not), or disabled some google services like Twiq and I have. Those are the two scenarios which make the tiles orange anyway.

How can the phone not being active when the screen is on?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] guitarfreedom:
Really I don't know, but this 4.2.2 with apolo kernel is very impressive. I've stressed phone so much yesterday, and it was always fast and battery lasts like in a Sammy rom. I like it. I've used KK too for some days , but I don't notice too much differences in terms of performances.

Old issue of the battery stats not being generated/read properly. Its just a visual bug. It has been fixed as of the latest CM11 nightlies though :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] guitarfreedom:
Oh yes, now I remember that I've read about this issue somewhere in this forum ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] velocity90:
When I unlock and look at the tiles they are orange (a view times a day) when they turn white I receive sometimes messages from 2 hours earlier (whattsapp) that indicates complete loss of connection. Have wifi set to always on and safe battery off. Bbs shows 100% wifi

Just tried something new, my last resort. Opened ports 5228-5230 manually (I can access the playstore manually but not receiving auto updates anymore)

Also changed wifi heartbeat to 5mins. But my guess is Google. Strange that it won't update automatically anymore.

Hi guys. Im not sure but I may have found a bug. It seems like the option in settings>WiFi>advanced>keep WiFi on only when charging is not working. I have attached screens. Notice my screen on time and my awake time are similar, so I'm getting good deep sleep. BUT WiFi on is significantly more. Maybe its normal operation. Can anyone confirm? Thanks!

check if there is an app that could override wifi settings. if there is no app that overrides wifi settings, flash rom + gapps and whatsapp only. set wifi to keep alive when screen is off and try someone to send you whatsapp msg.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] velocity90:
Will do. But im in some very active whattsapp groups so the problem is very noticeable.

Is there an easy way to check it or do I manually go through all apps:(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] razen_kain:
Not to butt in here but, i had a very similar situation with my Wi-Fi. I started a q&a on it over in the i777 section. My problem turned out to be my router but in my search for answers i came across an app called push notification fixer that alters the heartbeat rate to keep the connection with Google services thus restoring your lost notifications when the screen is off

Hello how can I change the recent apps to the original ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rachid.Ala:
No, but you can compile the rom from sources with the original recents app or install omniswitch.

A question : What's wrong with actual recent apps ?

Any suggestion??

[Galaxy S II Android Development] TheImpossibleEnemy:
Don't know if anyone here is still using 4.3.1(waiting 'till that nasty fuse daemon bug will,if ever,be solved in kk),but I'll it ask anyway:

When battery level drops to about ~20% or lower sometimes my phone looses signal.It may reapear after a few seconds and stay there or only a reboot helps to restore it.This only happens when phone is at heavy usage,like gaming or benchmarking,and only when battery is low.

I know I can't ask for help here because I'm using a custom kernel, dorimanx to be exact,+CPU&GPU OC/UV(p.s. it's great!),just wanted to know if anyone ever experienced this.Maybe it's a known bug IDK,did my search but found nothing.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] amirfida:
i am also using 4.3.1 hhhmm never encountered that bug or may be i never noticed it :/ can you tell me your exact settings for the kernel? i want kernel which can give me more juice as i just use my mobile to keep up with my social life that's it means no gaming and all can you suggest me any good kernel ?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Spaulding89:
[MENTION=5708556]TheImpossibleEnemy[/MENTION] do you have enabled Eco-Tweaks or Auto Data in STweaks? I dont know if this Settings could be the reason for your issue but it can be.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] TheImpossibleEnemy:
Thanks for your reply,but no,I haven't enabled those.

Hmm..so it seems only I have this problem.

My battery is still great btw,it's a thing I can rule out for sure.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Harsha Raj:
I had this issue. Every time when I was in need of the network, the battery would be low like below 30 or 20 and the network would go. It was so annoying. So I replaced the battery for new one and no more issues.

I'm on stock kernel with stock cpu, etc..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] velocity90:
Any chance of dormancy mode being implemented in this rom?

It's you can have a emergency list and the people that are on there can call you even if the sound is muted. In 4.1.2 you had that and could turn it on during the night.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hawaiisteve:
Look in settings>sound>advanced options>quiet hours. I think that's the closest thing to what your asking for...

Yes, i can star the emergency contacts :thumbup:

i want to try 4.2 and 4.3 slimsaber, but both of them are jellybean, so which one do you recommend? as they could be extremely similar, how is battery life doing there? and what are your opinions on them?

i'm on kk now and it is great, but if i can get a little more batery with jb, then i'll stick to that for a while, that's why i'm asking

thank you

Personally i don't see any battery difference between 4.2/3/4. i get 2.5 to 3 hrs screen on time on them all
[Galaxy S II Android Development] JavaScout:
It depends whether you use Art or Dalvik, and also the kernel governor make serious difference.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] velocity90:
Art vs dalvik has been tested and makes little difference. personally I don't see any difference as well.

Kernel I clearly see difference. Apolo light bfq-slp works great.
