I tried this morning, after your previous post, without success.

I used the pc sdcard reader to format a 32 GB card to exfat, using Windows 7.

After putting back the sdcard in the phone, sdcard1 was not recognized by android.

I used both ES File Explorer and the stock SlimSaber file manager.

I'm on latest SlimSaber 03.10 with gustavo_s 03.08

Edit: sorry, just realized that you asked about SlimKat, not SlimSaber!

I didn't try on SlimKat

I would like to ask if there are System Apps that I can freeze/uninstall, namely:

com.android.backupconfirm

Google Backup Transport

Google One Time Init

Google Partner Setup

KeyguardTestActivity

One Time Init

There are some others but for the listed above I don't know what their function is ;)

Dont worry, I use Slimsaber too, so the answer is still valid.

Did you try with dorimanx kernel? Supposedly supports exfat too.

short answer is "currently no" but response is open, so it might be a "not yet" depends on the slimbean team

Try Xposed with Gravity Box.

find the culprit. your latest logcat indicates that your storage is corrupted.

not yet...

i might cherry-pick the exfat commits from omnirom to build slimsaber with exfat. the support will be on the rom, so no kernel change is needed.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
probably you uploaded the photo long time ago as google contact doesn't support high resolution photo.

you need to reupload the photo. go to contact app, edit the contact person photo and upload a new high resolution photo. the contact photo should now fine.

currently not supported in the rom. you can try xposed like [MENTION=5642241]akilleas[/MENTION] suggested.

as far as i can remember, slimbean doesn't support exfat.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] LAKAME_MAN:
I asked if you would consider implementing custom lock screen backgrounds in the Note thread a few weeks ago. Not that you owe any of us anything, but an Xposed module can't replace something that's integrated in the ROM itself. I hope you'd reconsider implementing it. It's the only thing I miss from Slimbean :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
yeah i know you requested for it there. :p

there is a lot of going on currently on my side, so cannot promise anything right now. :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] j1gga84:
That would be awesome :fingers-crossed:

Hopefully this nasty bug will be solved finally with formatting external (and maybe also internal) SD with exFAT :good:

Changes:

exFAT support.

SlimKat has already exFAT support from CM11 but the binaries are not there and it is not enabled.

If you feel unsecure, backup the content of your storages. Don't blame me if your precious files are gone. :fingers-crossed:

Added transfer progress reporting for push and pull commands.

Use: adb push -p filetopush destinationfolder

frameworks/base: Some AOSP updates.

See changelog for the rest of changes.

Hey guys, this is a bit of an odd one.

I changed my dpi back to stock 240 to test out something with one of my own apps using ROM Toolbox Pro which worked fine as I've done before, but now when I try to change it back to 182 it never sets after a reboot, it always defaults back to 240.

I even tried a dirty flash of the Rom again, but it's still stuck at 240.

Any ideas?

[update: also uninstalled and reinstalled Rom Toolbox Pro and it still won't stick]
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Drahy:
You did not understand me ...

I have all my photos even in HD resolution and synced ... In all applications and in my call log photos have the best quality even in callui when someone calls it is ok ... But problem is in notifications the picture is just blurred maybe becase it is so "smalled" but other applications are resizing it much better let me show you it in screenshots below ...

you can see in notification the picture is really bad, can it be somehow fixed? It is not one contact but all of them ...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Hopper8:
I use texdroider DPI, works fine, nice and simple. Give it a go maybe
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bytes2000:
From your screenshot, you are using haxsync for syncing contact photos with the ones from Facebook.

I use that too and in my pc the photos look great.

1) The problem is that you are using low quality photos

and/or

2) Probably ZOOMING and CROPING the contact photo. -> if you zoom the photo it will loose detail, you can change individual contact photos using Haxsync -> config button -> "Manage contacts" option.. there adjust the photo to not zoom it.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonaseymour:
Can't even change it using ES File explorer with root access. Won't let me save the file even though it says I have rw access... Very confused. I didn't realise how much the stock dpi sucked until I was stuck with it... lol
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bytes2000:
there are no problems with that, Below is a hint on whats happening but I still advise you to use an app for changing it.

130|root@android:/system # mount | grep system
/dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system ext4 [COLOR="Red"][B]ro[/B][/COLOR],seclabel,relatime,user_xattr,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0

[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonaseymour:
Yep, Textdroider DPI did worked. Should have tried it before. Not sure why ES or Rom Toolbox weren't though. They've worked fine in the past.

Phew, back to the beautiful 182. :)

btw only these support stweaks: dorimanx, gustavo_s
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Twiq:

It says you have "some" problem and it fixed the coruption, try running it again until you dont have "YES" in the output..

Then clear media storage data from System Settings > apps > all tab > Force stop then Clear Data..

And reboot..

If the media server stucks again then you need to find .thumbnail folder inside DCIM folder on your sdcard and delete it.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] bytes2000:
from the screenshots you posted before, the source image (3rd pic -> haxsync) is not very sharp; you should try with another (high quality) picture.

dont expect the rom to improve the image quality; if its grabbing a low quality image from facebook you will need to contact Haxsync support team, its a paid app that includes it :)

And i think it has something todo with this :

https://github.com/SlimSaber/framew...roid/systemui/statusbar/NotificationData.java

public int add(IBinder key, StatusBarNotification notification, ExpandableNotificationRow row,

View content, View expanded, StatusBarIconView icon) {
Entry entry = new Entry();
entry.key = key;
entry.notification = notification;
entry.row = row;
entry.content = content;
entry.expanded = expanded;
entry.icon = icon;
entry.largeIcon = null; // TODO add support for large icons

return add(entry);
}

I don't know what line is that, but note the comment :

// TODO add support for large icons

Looks like somebody haven't finished their homework :giggle:

It means, Probably large icons are returned as normal icons without proper resizing (for now)..

To [MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION] i don't know if this will be any help, but best resizing method for image reduction is "bicubic sharper".. I don't know how to translate that into a code since i'm not much of a coder myself :D

About reformatting memory space...

Is there anyway to reclaim /preload partition? It is 512Mb of precious internal storage...

I think that deleting it is too risky in case one want to go back to stock ROM.

I think it would be easier to have the ROM automatically put there part of its content, using links, if this makes things easier
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
why not using airdroid? adb?

ums is not recomended by google. with ums, the rom doesn't see your both storages anymore. only your pc sees them.

it is just exfat support. its job to mount exfat partition. so independent whether the partition for internal/external/usb storage.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
you cannot just use /preload partition alone on stock rom. it is just partial system files...

do you notice that our rom name begins with the word 'slim'? :p

our rom is only 130 mb compared to samsung rom 600 mb. we are not bloated system partition, so there is no need to use preload partition. :)

using symlink needs an extra attention...as i was using samsung rom long time ago, everytime i restored the backup, the rom always goes to bootloop. until i noticed that i need to enable the preload partition to be backed up. :D

[Galaxy S II Android Development] pdario:
Not clear here... On my phone it looks to be an empty file system (I delete all the files there).

No, I meant to use it for part of the /data partition content, not /system one.

My phone now shows

/system size 512MB, used 335MB

/data size 2GB, used 1.7GB

/preload size 503MB, used 8.4MB

For example, my /data/app is 578MB, /data/dalvik-cache is 383MB, /data/app-lib is 156MB, /data/app-asec is 75MB.

It looks to me /data/dalvik-cache is a good candidate to be linked to /preload, but it has to be in the ROM: if I do it by myself, I'll end up in a mess at the next ROM update, I suppose.

I use the app Screebl to keep my screen on, whenever I keep my cell between 15° and 90° of angulation. But, after sometime, the orientation sensors stopped working and the Screebl couldn't get acess the sensors information to keep the screen on anymore, and I had to reboot the phone...
