Many thanks for your work my friend, I really appreciate that you tried to eliminate that nasty Skype bug. I think sooner or later it is time to upgrade to SlimSaber LP. A german user told me that Skype is working in 5.1.1 SlimSaber :)

As a matter of fact, I thought I had given up on this, but I decided to at least start comparing CM11 and SlimSaber. Maybe that would not be so hard as think.

And for my surprise, at least at the very first point of failure (the CreateFromCamera API at libstagefright), the code is IDENTICAL!! WTH!

So I went back to my orignal proposal: The problem is on SKYPE application itself.

Then I decided to take a look at Skype´s libcodecs.so and foudn something very interesting:

- There are two CreateFromCamera calls in it!

sudo readelf -Ws /media/sf_Lubuntu_shared/libcodecs.so | grep CreateFromCamera
624: 0004015d 2 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 7 _ZN7android12CameraSource16CreateFromCameraERKNS_2spINS_7ICameraEEERKNS1_INS_21ICameraRecordingProxyEEEiRKNS_8String16EjNS_4SizeEiRKNS1_INS_22IGraphicBufferProducerEEEb
1058: 00000000 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT UND _ZN7android12CameraSource16CreateFromCameraERKNS_2spINS_7ICameraEEERKNS1_INS_21ICameraRecordingProxyEEEiNS_4SizeEiRKNS1_INS_7SurfaceEEEb

When I demangle the call above I got:

android::CameraSource::CreateFromCamera(android::sp<android::ICamera> const&,
android::sp<android::ICameraRecordingProxy> const&,
int,
android::String16 const&,
unsigned int,
android::Size,
int,
android::sp<android::IGraphicBufferProducer> const&,
bool)

android::CameraSource::CreateFromCamera(android::sp<android::ICamera> const&,
android::sp<android::ICameraRecordingProxy> const&,
int,
android::Size,
int,
android::sp<android::Surface> const&,
bool)

And what I have found it that the first one above is Androind 4.3 onwards version, while the second one it Android 4.2 version.

:victory: Skype thinks SlimSaber is Android 4.2

:rolleyes: Is that good news? :confused:

:crying: Maybe not. At least for me. I have no idea why Skype thinks SlimSabe is 4.2, and what it takes to make it believe slimsaber is infact 4.4.4

First thing I thought was to compare CM11 and SlimSaber build.prop.

1) ro.build.id=KTU84Q is the same on both

2) ro.build.description and ro.build.fingerprint are very similar:

cm11
ro.build.description=GT-I9100-user 4.1.2 JZO54K I9100XWMS2 release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=samsung/GT-I9100/GT-I9100:4.1.2/JZO54K/I9100XWMS2:user/release-keys

SlimSaber
ro.build.description=GT-I9100-user 4.1.2 JZO54K release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=samsung/GT-I9100/GT-I9100:4.1.2/JZO54K:user/release-keys

The rest of changes seems pretty much irrelevant.

:confused: Would someone else have any other idea? :confused:

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] j1gga84:
That is infact very interesting but does not explain why it works in 5.x and not in 4.4.4, maybe for LP skype is another apk?

maybe [MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION] or [MENTION=5419355]warrior1208[/MENTION] has any idea on that issue :confused:

regards
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
the source base is simply different and in 5.1.1, i don't even add any toolchain optimizations that i used in 4.4.4 and 5.0.2. that's why i come to the idea that the skype issue might be in the toolchain optimizations. as far as i can remember, skype also doesn't work in 5.0.2.

tagging [MENTION=5103629]thunder45[/MENTION]

i'm starting to think that skype issue might be in the strict-aliasing fixes that are spread many projects. it'd hard if you want to track each of project that has strict-aliasing fix.

i'd say, just forget about skype issue. this is the only app known to me that is not working. don't spend too much time on it. the important thing is the play service fc fix.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Nick_Knight:
My Girlfriend is still on Dec 21 build with last TRDS GApps and [MENTION=5811506]gsstudios[/MENTION] DorimanX 10.45v009 without play service fc and Skype 5.1.0.57240_84008856.apk work perfect. I don't know what is the problem for so many people.

I'm on [MENTION=5419355]warrior1208[/MENTION] SlimLP beta #5 without Skype issue.

hey i've been using slimsaber with dorimax kernel from past 1 month. today i tried to enter recovery to flash some other rom. but i couldnt enter the recovery rather m stuck at the start screen showing dorimax sign. and it wont load after it.. pls help me out!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] thunder45:
You should use Odin and flash recovery again.

Please download Odin, kk-kernel-04-02-TWRP-TRIM-for ODIN.tar and Samsung drivers from here

Do the magic key combination (power+volume_down+home) to enter LOADER.

Plug your device USB and wait for ODIN to detect your phone (you should see some com: port detected)

Select PDA check box with TWRP Kernel in tar format (kk-kernel-04-02-TWRP-TRIM-for ODIN.tar)

Hit start button in ODIN and wait it to reboot your device.

then you should be good to boot recovery again.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] bialabs:
i have whatsapp problem (camera and crash when send videos), how can i solve?should i try a different kernel? otherwise everything is perfect
[Galaxy S II Android Development] j1gga84:
That is also a known problem and it is present since a long time, I think it is similar to the skype issue..

regards
[Galaxy S II Android Development] thunder45:
Whatsapp works for me. Why don't you give a try on my today's build? It has almost all the optmizations back:

- All targets but "thumb" are compiled with O3 and all other optimizations from FusionJack

- Thumb is compiled with Os (I realized that O2 is enough to get Play Service FC's)

- Strict-aliasing is back on

- Memomry optmization is back on.

Skype still doesn't work by the way.

You can have it here SlimSaber_Thumb_Os

[Galaxy S II Android Development] vickymbbs:
[MENTION=5103629]thunder45[/MENTION],I dirty your 24/6 build over fusionjack's 06/4 build..still whatsapp camera crash is present..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] amirfida:
Try clean.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] thunder45:
I used to have this problem in the past when I was restoring Whatsapp from Titanium. When I installed it from Play Store, the problem went way. So try a clean flash and istall from PlayStore. Maybe that helps.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Chillmann:
At least a dirty flash got me rid of the annoying play service fc. :thumbup::thumbup:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chickenbeefZA:
Tried this, didn't work :(

Not a big issue though.

I'm just glad Play FC is gone :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ssanyi:
Theoretically, is it enough that I overwrite some system files with files from the new build (some libs w/o optimizations), or the whole system should be flashed? Thx [emoji1]
[Galaxy S II Android Development] thunder45:
I would simply backup boot and system, then dirty flash it. It should be the simpler and safer way.

Regards
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
some apks need libs to work. if there is function in lib that is removed or added and that apk is using or expecting that function, that apk won't work.

i just want to point out that flashing the whole rom is better instead partially. it could work or it could mess up your rom :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
[MENTION=5103629]thunder45[/MENTION], what is the conclusion of the play service fc fix? disabling all optimizations without uaing libcore commit?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] thunder45:
Just change O3 to Os for TARGET_thumb. You can leave all your other optimization on.

No libcore fix required.

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GreekDragon:
So which build should i use? the thunder one or slimsaber one?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
The build from [MENTION=5103629]thunder45[/MENTION] fixes the play services crashes, so you're better off with that one

My device does not go into deep sleep.

I checked the apps. Its none of the apps. Tried the things mentioned in the first post.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] OlMightyG:
I attached a screenshot of Wakelockdetector. I managed to reduce the batterydrain by re-installing my modem (RIL-Cleaner). Also the Kernel is now Gustavos recent one. I am using this Gapps: https://github.com/opengapps/opengapps/wiki/Pico-Package

Any ideas on that?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sun90:
install "CPU Spy' app from stores and see how much % of deep sleep the phone is attaining, and also Use BBS (better battery stats) app and check what is keeping ur phone awake :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ultravy:
If i select Data enabled/roaming/national this page go dark, and i noticed that when i selected use only 2g - battery saving mode, (preferred network type 2g since i dont need at all 3g) its changing by itself some times to 3g . Too much battery drain on 3g!

Also anyone noticed an increased drain on "cell standby" and "voice calls" on kk based roms ? My prevous phone was SGmini2 with jb 4.2.2 , when i swich on kk i had similar drains on battery.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GreekDragon:
Skype works fine for me. with dorimanx trimmed version by gsstudios.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] OlMightyG:
I think there is some problem with the Kernel. It drains my battery.

I am using Dorimanx UBER now without problems. But still not that good batterylife as with JellyBean.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] souler456:
Do this:

1. Add a Network Mode Tile, like on the screenshot below:

2. Still in Tiles & Layout, click the Network Mode and set to 2G/3G only, like on the screenshot below:

This process will force the network to go either 2G Only or 3G Only, sincw in Settings > Mobile Networks > Preferred Network Type, the 2G there is 2G+3G, and never 2G Only... Good luck... :good:

:D :) ;) :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GreekDragon:
On 0406 build with DorimanX kernel Trim version by gsstudios everything is ok. Can we expect a new build?

Also skype works for me and whatsapp camera works. Is possible to fix video playback issues? :P

also the google play services i never got FC.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] gippy2:
Normally an hour or so later iirc.. cos Ive normally just got to work which means I cant wait

so I go missing for about 15 mins and have to use the data allowance lol.....45 mins before I leave home and m on 55% download atm..

Happy days :laugh::highfive:

I need a doctor
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
hehe for me, it would be better to flash after work. if something goes wrong, then i'll busy with my phone not with my work. :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gippy2:
That makes sense and thats why I need a doctor..I cant wait and if it goes wrong I will just have to do a restore ..And have the hump with myself for flashing..Damn I really am not well....:good:

Edit - Flashed fine with dori 39v4......Now for another test run...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Nos_20:
Yes. I will do that as it may help others to get it going. I posted here on the off chance someone else had encountered the same thing and got it working..... Will report back any updates!

[Galaxy S II Android Development] OlMightyG:
Just checked that for you: no, it says "unknown ringtone" after reboot. But I had to chose the ringtone via another manager (in my case ES Explorer) because the standart one wont show ringtones outside the ringtone folder. I dont know if it is a bug or just a regular android-thing. Just put it into your ringtone folder to fix that problem.

That's normal. Just put your ringtone to internal memory and you're fine.

Is there much difference between o3 and os on thumb? I'm planning on going back to kk after having some fun on lp I think
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Arjs:
guys I am travelling and I am unable to use my phone suddenly. Please some quick advice would be really helpful, as I am stuck with no phone and none of my data in a different city.

I have been using this rom v4.4.4 from last few months and everything has been running smooth. Today suddenly the phone rebooted randomly and then kept rebooting again and again. I pulled out the battery and tried to power on but Now I just get stuck on the DorimanX kernel screen. Is this what you call a soft brick ? Because I am ABLE to access recovery. When i try to exit out of the recovery i get this message saying Root Possibly Lost - with 2 options Yes and No.

Please guide me what to do, as I dont want to loose any of the data in my phone. I do have the same Rom which I flashed on my sd card, will flashing it again without factory reset fix my phone without loosing the data ?? Or is there any other way to fix this ?

---------- Post added at 07:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:43 AM ----------

Well i was able to mount storage from recovery and copy my files to laptop.

Then I dirty flashed the same rom again and I was able to boot the phone again. But before I could be happy..

I realized the phone is working really slow and none of the google apps work. they just crash on launching. also my google contacts have not synced. Any way to fix this or do I just have to flash a new rom ??

EDIT - If the phone stays in recovery screen, it does not heat at all. But normal state even on flight mode, sitting idle, its heating so much like it will explode.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] OlMightyG:
I would wipe Cache and Dalvik. If this does not help try to reflash the kernel and GApps.

But maybe you need a clean install...

Google location services crash

Hello all, I have a serious problem. About 2 months ago, my phone suddenly freezed and I reset it. After this, Google play services frequently started to crash. Just a few days ago I just realised that it is something related with location service,because it stops when I turn off network location. In addition to that I have disabled Google location service by disable service app, it is also stopped. I did factory reset, wipe all, anything about cleaning, absolutely nothing worked. I really need help because I can't use location it is so annoying :((((

I will probably try to do some cm12.1 builds for personal use once I have some time. I believe cm will probably have a longer lasting support than slim for i9100. Note that most of the issues we have on SlimSaber today is due to the fact that Slim gave up on KK4.4, while cm11.0 still seems to have been receiving update.

There is no changelog guys. I just rebuilt the HEAD of SlimSaber github tweaking some optmization settings. If you want to reproduce it, look at line 112 from

https://github.com/SlimSaber/android_build/blob/kk4.4/core/combo/TARGET_linux-arm.mk

Just change O3 per Os.
