BootAnimation

I made a custom bootanimation based on a previous thing I'd converted.. I think it looks pretty nice and matches my dark theme perfectly - feel free to try it out. Will remove it if you don't want it posted here [MENTION=2450054]Sentinel196[/MENTION] :angel:

To install, simply :

- Download [ this bootanimation.zip ] and put it into /system/media/bootanimation.zip (don't forget to back up the original!) using your filemanager - Solid Explorer is a good choice.

- Change permissions on the bootanimation.zip to -rw-rw-r-- or 664

- Reboot and enjoy. Credits to original gif animator, and Sentinel for a great ROM:good:

Animation looks much smoother on actual device.. and with no watermark.
[One (M7) Android Development] Sentinel196:
That's rad!! Thanks :)

What software did you use to animate?
[One (M7) Android Development] snachez:
I ripped apart a gif I found using photoshop, inverted the colours and added the logo tagline overlay, then re-saved as individual .png frames out from Photoshop again. Actions make it all easy enough, glad you like :highfive:
[One (M7) Android Development] DeathAngel66669:
First of all, Sentinel196, thank you for all the hard work you put into this rom. I use this rom as my daily driver in conjunction with 5UBZ3R0 theme, they both compliment each other very well. If you don't mind, I'd like to share these 3 wallpapers for other people to use. One question though, how do I add home screen to the launcher and hide apps from the app drawer? Thanks again. Can any other members recommend a kernel that offers UC/UV'ing capabilities for extended battery life and other tweaking capabilities?
[One (M7) Android Development] romaspeed:
Elementax is only for Sense based.

[One (M7) Android Development] MJFox78:
just move an icon or a widget to the far right and another home screen will open up

as far as I know you can't with the Google Experience Launcher... I think the nova-launcher allows that

but you can use for example Titanium Backup to remove system apps completly

[One (M7) Android Development] DeathAngel66669:
Thanks guys, I'll try Nova Launcher.

Happy Holidays!
[One (M7) Android Development] DeathAngel66669:
Nova Launcher worked... Thank you so much!
[One (M7) Android Development] soopermarkus:
Fantastic so far in terms of smooth operation and speed. Can't comment on battery yet as I'm not in an LTE market and I am traveling. Had a wakelock issue yesterday that I haven't been able to replicate or troubleshoot. I suspect it is beyondpods fault though.

Gonna be my daily driver for a while. Then I'll come back to update.
[One (M7) Android Development] crnkoj:
what firmware is suggested to be used with this rom?
[One (M7) Android Development] rayndog3:
Hope someone can help me out, seems I can't send an mms message with this or any other aosp rom. but with the sense and gpe roms I can. Does anyone know of a fix for this? I'd like to use this rom but mms is a must!!!
[One (M7) Android Development] Sentinel196:
Use Google Hangouts for SMS
[One (M7) Android Development] Sentinel196:
I suggest converting to GPE 4.4 and using the latest firmware in that, then flashing a custom kernel and flashing my ROM.
[One (M7) Android Development] rayndog3:
K thanks. I'll give it a try.
[One (M7) Android Development] dseries60:
Downloading your ROM now mainly because I am looking for louder volume in general. As you stated in OP#1 all aosp ROMs have low volume. What changes were required to increase all volumes?
[One (M7) Android Development] Sentinel196:
I increased the gain in the libs. :)
[One (M7) Android Development] soopermarkus:
Update after a few days of usage.

I haven't had any more wakelock issues and was never able to replicate the behavior i experienced earlier. I have noted that while the sound is crystal clear compared to other CM11 variants, the gain is raised up to the point where using the DSP equalizer causes most of my music to clip with presets, bass booster, and virtual room effect or any combination of.

Battery life is pretty good, i can go about 16 hours and still have 30% battery left if I stay in good LTE coverage with moderate usage; checking twitter, snapchats, tinder, and a little youtube with surfing (~2 hr screen time total). i'm getting a day easily sticking to wifi. The kernel seems to do well with recognizing my car dock, which is not the case with ARHD without a custom kernel. The only problem that may keep me from continuing on with this ROM is that the kernel does not seem to allow the phone to draw enough current to outpace battery drain in the car dock. I have a iBolt xPro dock that is marketed as especially for HTC phones so there is a chance it could be the fault of an aftermarket dock.

However, with Tbalden's kernel and ARHD, i get stock like behavior with this car dock. I get about 1% charged per 20 minutes with navigation and beyond pod on with volume at 100%. i went from 86 to 75 % under the same conditions during a 35 minute car ride despite the battery showing that it was plugged in and charging. I'm going to try Tbaldens cm11 kernel and see if that helps. I would really like to keep this rom for a while.
[One (M7) Android Development] Toxicoblivion:
Can i use any CM11 kernel with this ROM?
[One (M7) Android Development] Toxicoblivion:
Cpu freqs dont stick (on stock and on tbaldens cm11 kernel) and then lock min and max to 1.7ghz if change is attempted. No mods or anything. Tried with built in changer and trickstermod. Any ideas? :/
[One (M7) Android Development] Sentinel196:
The features are there as part of a ROM, but locked down at kernel level. It should work on other kernels that support it.
[One (M7) Android Development] Toxicoblivion:
What kernel would you recommend for use besides stock?
[One (M7) Android Development] Zachinater:
Do I need s-off
[One (M7) Android Development] Sentinel196:
No. Just custom recovery

[One (M7) Android Development] soopermarkus:
I've had good results with tbaldens team7 cm11 kernel.
[One (M7) Android Development] snachez:
Anyone seeing decreased signal strength ? I haven't done thorough testing yet but get the feeling CM11 is giving me poorer reception compared to the Sentinel Sense version. I'm on latest radio and firmware.. any ideas ?

Also, [MENTION=2450054]Sentinel196[/MENTION] what are your plans for updates with this ? I'm toying with the idea of trying to build CM11 myself but would be stoked if I knew you wanted to release updates regularly to match the CM devs. Thnx :highfive:
[One (M7) Android Development] MJFox78:
would love to see updates as well, I'm on SentinelROM v6 since it was released and although I tried a few other ROMs after that I always come back to Sentinel

greetings

MJFox
[One (M7) Android Development] Sentinel196:
Updates once a month or so. No way I can do nightlies to keep up with the CM team.
[One (M7) Android Development] snachez:
Of course, nightlies would be insane :silly: I'm really enjoying it now so anything further is in no desperate need at all !
[One (M7) Android Development] crnkoj:
One more question, I couldn't find anything about sweep2sleep and doubletap2wake. So i take it it's not supported? I guess with your focus on battery life you don't plan on adding it either?
[One (M7) Android Development] MJFox78:
you have to install a custom kernel for that (e.g. bulletproof)

greetings

MJFox
[One (M7) Android Development] crnkoj:
Yeah thanks. Just wanted to see what's the take on it by Mr Sentinel :)
[One (M7) Android Development] Bhavpreet:
i just need some clarification.

when you flash a sense based rom, its best to have the latest firmware flashed on your device for better performance, which is currently 4.06.

I was previously on a sense based rom with firmware 4.06, and im about to flash Sentinel 6, is there any firmware i need to flash before doing so, or is 4.06 fine?

thanks
[One (M7) Android Development] sweetnsour:
Updating the firmware is always optional, for all roms I believe.
[One (M7) Android Development] Bhavpreet:
is there any risk for flashing 3.62 gpe firmware over 4.06 sense firmware?
[One (M7) Android Development] sweetnsour:
My understanding is that as long as you are S-OFF, you can flash any firmware on top of another, no matter what the version number is.
[One (M7) Android Development] snachez:
Has anyone tried flashing one of the latest official CM11 nightlies over this ROM install ?

EDIT : yeah, dont do this :p
[One (M7) Android Development] Vel-San:
So as i have read, 6.00 is not Compiled with new Linaro toolchain v4.8, sound may be different than a sense ROM ( Beats ) and for the battery, i'm on ARHD 41.0 and it takes 1 day and a couple of hours to die.. Gaming performance in this one may be better i think ( tried it once on htc one x ) and as for bugs, no bugs yet right ?

Can anyone tell me if flashing this one over sense is better ? or stay at sense ?
[One (M7) Android Development] MJFox78:
depends on your priorities... the CM ROMs usually are more fluid and less bloated... but usually have less features out of the box (no blink-feed, no ZOE, ...)

also the camera is better with SENSE ROMs

I prefer CM ROMs, but your mileage may vary
[One (M7) Android Development] MacLaughlin:
In my opinion this is the best cm based rom. It runs smooth as hell. Also no lag in chrome. Battery life is good. I get about 36 hours.
[One (M7) Android Development] Vel-San:
Okaii with the battery thing, and i approve with the camera feature, sucks in CM.

i don't use zoe neither blinkfeed.. i just want to know if sound is good like sense , no bugs, and Performance :)

Thanks For fast reply
[One (M7) Android Development] MacLaughlin:
It has no bugs. Sound isn't as good as in a sense based rom. You get the DSP manager to adjust and boost your sound.
[One (M7) Android Development] Vel-San:
hmm.. and games lag a bit on sense, not an obvious lag but still.. on this one ?
[One (M7) Android Development] MacLaughlin:
I don't play much. I noticed no lag so far. Overall this rom feels faster than any other rom I tested before.
[One (M7) Android Development] Vel-San:
Will flash After making nano backup ^^
[One (M7) Android Development] Unrivalled:
How do we get sweep2sleep/wake feature in this ROM? Any kernal for that purpose?
[One (M7) Android Development] Vel-San:
okaii i visited the download page and it says m7UL for 6.00 and M7 for 5.00 , how do i know which one is my phone ?
[One (M7) Android Development] Vel-San:
Okaii i checked my variant and it's M7 only , no U or UL.. I'm on ARHD 41.0 right now, can i flash this rom even if it's M7UL ? It is in HTC One M7 Main thread tho.. Thanks.
[One (M7) Android Development] rs1089:
This should help clear things up:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2223236
[One (M7) Android Development] Vel-San:
I saw this too, but no M7 only model.. i have a M7 with LTE support.. so is it M7-UL?
[One (M7) Android Development] rs1089:
What country are you in and what mobile network are you using? Based on the chart, as long as you didn't get your phone in Japan, and aren't a Sprint or Verizon user (some ROMs do support these variants, however) in the US, you most likely have the M7UL variant.
[One (M7) Android Development] Vel-San:
lebanon - Touch

Also in Gapps there are two packs for cm11.. which one to choose ?
[One (M7) Android Development] rs1089:
Okay you're good then. Not sure about the gapps, but I would go with the most recent version. I'm not using sentinel v6 now, but it was my favorite cm11-based ROM. Very smooth and pretty good battery life. I just prefer sense :P
[One (M7) Android Development] Vel-San:
Thanks so much mate ! and Gapps packs ,one says recommended and other one says ART COMPATIBLE .. >.>
[One (M7) Android Development] rs1089:
If you're planning on using any mods, including Xposed, stick with the non-ART version. I think you could use the ART compatible version even if you decide not to use ART. If you want to use ART, you absolutely need the ART compatible version. To my understanding, ART is an experimental environment in which Android can run. Dalvik has been the standard environment thus far, but Google's trying ART out in KitKat. ART is supposedly smoother and is supposed to give better battery life, but I don't know if there's a significant difference.
[One (M7) Android Development] Vel-San:
Much help from you mate ! thankS !
[One (M7) Android Development] rs1089:
No problem - glad I could help you out. Let me know how you like the ROM, and remember to give sentinel196 some thanks too for a great ROM!
[One (M7) Android Development] Vel-San:
Working :)

Working just fine :D flashed it (: :victory::good:
[One (M7) Android Development] crnkoj:
not to ask for eta, but i would like to ask if this rom is still being developed on and if there is going to be a release soon, seeing as the last release was over a month ago?

Thanks
[One (M7) Android Development] MacLaughlin:
You have to check the sentinelrom Facebook page. He says that he's busy for the next time and it could be, that there won't be an update for the next months.

Right now I'm downloading my apps from Google but I've noticed that the boot ani comes up. It isn't fully rebooting but the sentinel animation will show up. It's done it twice so far, like it's resetting or something.

Full wipe - cache/dalvik/data/system before install. Wiped cache & dalvik after install as well. TWRP
[One (M7) Android Development] Sentinel196:
That's a kernel crash. It should settle. I haven't had that happen to me on my M7, but it used to happen once or twice after initial install on my endeavoru

Hey Will, or (anyone) any that can help, I was curious if this is for ATT as well? I know it's for the m7_ul n that is where my confusion is. A little while back I tried to install cm (using cwm) from the regular HTC one forums but got a status 7 error because cwm said my device is a m7att which is correct. So i installed m7att cm n worked fine. So I google'd n couldn't find my model except for just m7 and (pn172000) I think if I remember right. My bootloader says m7_ul though. But I did flash the hboot 1.44 to get rid of the ugly red warning on the splash screen. Lastly I just used twrp to install it because twrp doesn't seem to check your mid but I could be wrong. It installed fine but I got cold feet and decided to restore a nandroid to be safe and ask you & the community cuz you guys are great with knowledge. Sorry to take up so much space with a simple question but I just wanted you guys to know that I do try to research on my own FIRST. I'm s-off w/ supercid 11111111, unlocked w/ twrp. I appreciate any help, thanks...
[One (M7) Android Development] Sentinel196:
Basically, if the Device ID isn't m7-ul. The installation will fail as it's checked prior to flashing.

First of all, thank you for this awesome ROM!

I've noticed that the WiFi range is lower than the stock ROM... Is there a way to improve it?

The audio with HTC in-ear set si awesome but the audio of the speeker seems to be metallic and disturbed... Do you have the same problem? Is there a way i can resolve it?

Thank You
[One (M7) Android Development] Sentinel196:
WiFi is a work in progress. the CM team are working on that. As for audio, try tweaking your EQ settings in DSP manager. It's a flat EQ by default.
[One (M7) Android Development] ImJacky:
I'll try (: Oh, last thing, can i display my % of battery on the status bar?
[One (M7) Android Development] Sentinel196:
Settings - System - Status Bar - Battery Status Style
[One (M7) Android Development] nasty159:
Is putting in features like the remote from Sense, Beats and Maybe the Sense camera too farfetched?

My ultimate rom would be AOSP with Sense Remote, Beats Audio and the Sense Camera. Is this even possible or am I just dreaming?
[One (M7) Android Development] ImJacky:
It would be the final perfect mod!
[One (M7) Android Development] Sentinel196:
Anything is possible, but I'm not smart enough to do that. Both ROMs require completely different firmware.

The Sony Xperia Z is the closest I've seen to an AOSP experience with good camera and audio.
[One (M7) Android Development] skulldreamz:
So anyway I decided to flash it on ATT and I can confirm it's running great. I used cwm and was expecting to get the same status 7 error but wanted to give it a shot and man I'm glad I did!! I did notice that ROM manager see's my phone now as m7ul (non-us gsm) is what it says upon recovery setup now. Use to just say m7. Weird cuz I live in Maryland... But it has always said HTC_Europe when I type getprop in terminal since I purchased it new from a ATT store. Anyway thanks, another flawless ROM from SentinelRom!!

[One (M7) Android Development] gsr519:
So far this rom is AWESOME, thanks again Sentinel

One concern for me is when playing audio in my car (Pioneer x930BT) with previous roms the track information displayed on screen, now it does not, also, approximately every 5 minutes the sound goes really low (like half a second) then comes back to normal volume.

Anyone else experiencing these problems?
[One (M7) Android Development] Sentinel196:
It might be worth tweaking the Audio settings for Bluetooth in DSP Manager. I haven't had similar issues with my car though (Sony XAV-701BT)
[One (M7) Android Development] gsr519:
I have tweaked the DSP settings, how about the track information displaying on your head unit, does it work?
[One (M7) Android Development] Sentinel196:
depends on the music player app you're using.

[One (M7) Android Development] Sentinel196:
the themes need to be compatible with the latest CM framework. A lot of them are quite old unfortuantely. The framework changed significantly about a month ago.
[One (M7) Android Development] threetwentyfizzle:
Just flashed this rom, and WOW. It is fast. It was hard to break me away from Sense, but I'm in love with AOSP all over again.

One bug I noticed so far, is Google voice typing accidentally got selected when typing and crashed the keyboard. Disabled it in settings so no biggie.

Would love to see some extra goodies in some possible future updates like PA's Pie, or maybe even Halo if its possible, but loving this Linaro build it is lag free!
[One (M7) Android Development] skulldreamz:
Are you a kernel dev as well. I see that you compiled the kernel in this ROM so I was curious. I want my phone to be strictly Sentinel196, but I do like to use custom kernels with all the features they include. Not pressing for more, just curious... Thanks
[One (M7) Android Development] Sentinel196:
I don't make any cahnges to the kernel. I just compile the stock CyanogenMod source with the linaro toolchain :)
[One (M7) Android Development] Sindroid:
This ROM is butter smooth. Better not be any wakelocks. Just coming from ARHD and the new version just sucks battery.

This has some great tweaks. Haven´t used AOSP for ages. But this ROM suits my needs perfectly.
[One (M7) Android Development] skulldreamz:
Got ya, yeah I saw your YouTube video where you did a comparison using stock and then used linaro toolchain and I could definitely see the difference. I think that is were all the "look how smooth this rom is and so on" comments came from!! Haha
[One (M7) Android Development] Sentinel196:
To be realistic about it, the difference is more profound on older devices. It was massively noticeable on the HTC One X and Galaxy SIII.
[One (M7) Android Development] skulldreamz:
Yeah that reminds me of the seeder app which gives your entropy pool more room to work with but on older devices the result is a lot more profound in my experience...
