Awesome news :fingers-crossed: Thank you so much Archi! :)

Don't worry about your java skills, it's quite easy to learn the basics ;)

It's so great to have a dev how's really in contact with his users, improving things, spending his free time and even make our wishes come true :highfive: :good:

That's worth a donation from me, for you, for christmas! You can expect it this evening / tomorrow! :)) :angel:

Hey Archi,

Can we change versions ie from stable to experimental or vice versa?

Thanks buddy

Ignore me, I found the option.

[MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION] I have no contacts , ore more exactly they all have (no name) as name and the calls log doesn't work at all. :/
[Galaxy S III Android Development] j8hnb:
Call logs are working for me did you make full wipe before flashing rom?

Also did you restore data after flashing, may be there is the problem after restoring? If you have a backup you could try to full wipe then restore it.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] eb6:
yes I did , do you have contacts ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] j8hnb:
Yes call logs and contacts are fine for me. I edited my first quote above maybe you could try see if it solves problem for you if you have a backup
[Galaxy S III Android Development] eb6:
i tried resetting contacts and contacts storage with titanium but i got fc so i reflashed the rom
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Depressed T.Bear:
Before you're restoring your contacts, make sure to read the FAQ of Titanium Backup!

Deactivate Google contacts backup, activate system data migration (in TB) and then restore your contacts. It should work fine.

It's not a problem of the ROM ;)

a) update your recovery

b) redownload the whole .zip, it might be corrupted

No other ways than these two imo.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] :
How to make AdAway working ?

Hi,

just a short question. I am on the latest Dec.21 3.0.1 experimental.

Whenever i start the AdAway app provided with the ROM it says "Deactivated".

Pressing the "Download and activate" button always results in a symlink failure and some kind of S-ON/S-OFF message.

In ArchiDroid app the Adblocker ist activated and uses the "AdAway" profile.

So, what do i have to do to activate AdAway?

BTW: It seems that blocking ads works anyway. For example my weather app does not show any adds any more.

So maybe my question is totally absurd simply for the reason i do not understand the mechanism....
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Depressed T.Bear:
I'm only answering because it's almost Christmas. This question has already been

frequently

treated here!

ArchiDroid has it's own Adblocking system, faster & more resource-saving then f.e. MOAB. So Adaway can't be used here! Adaway is only here to update & customize the hostsfile.

To learn how to do it, just use the search for this thread. It is not so long ago that archi has explained it.

Took less than a minute find this using search "AdAway"

I've installed Xposed module EnableCMcallRecording, and it works, BUT the voice of the other side is almost inaudible. I've tried a lot of apps but have the same problem. This isn't a hardware limitation because in TW roms call recordnig works perfect, so, is there something that can be fixed on the rom ?, I know that CM has disabled many things because legal matters.

Hi , thanks for your reply but I still got fc after activating system data migration and restoring contacts . :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] tinyutilsdroid:
Not sure if this is reported already, but I noticed an issue when I selected 'navigation bar' to be enabled during installation. This actually disables the hardware keys after boot. If 'navigation bar' setting is not touched, everything works fine. (You can set it later by editing the build.prop file)

Just an observation.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
This is intended, why would you need hardware keys if you enable navigation bar?

[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
I'll make hardware key selection optional in next version.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] vldesco:
Not related to AD, but CM. The default record source is MIC (this is the reason you hear your voice but not the other side) If you enable speaker, MIC will record the other side too (I know, some conversations must be private)

It is supposed that changing the record source to VOICE MIX, will record both sides, but I get an error starting to record (something about not device found). I have a logcat about that error and tried to track in middle of CM sources, but my knowledge is less than noob level :p.

Sorry for off-topic :D

[Galaxy S III Android Development] whatsgood:
That's great! I was wondering if dhiru would do that with his nameless kitkat branch as lollipop isn't polished up just yet, but I'm really into AD 3.0. I have to say, i think it's the fastest kitkat rom available. The installation process is so simple. Very professional as well.

Good luck for hwc!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sputnikk23:
Is there no options in this ROM for shortcut notifications on the lock screen or active display?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
BEHOLD, I BROUGHT THE HWCOMPOSER TO EXPERIMENTAL.

Take care, due to working hwcomposer densities "changed meanings", e.g. UI is now PROPERLY scaled in 240 DPI, so it's much smaller than before.

It's working HWC, the one found in Nameless 2.0 Lollipop. In KK it was only half-working. Now it's FULLY working. Send your money to Dhiru, not me. I just backported his work from Lollipop to KK.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] dead4ngel:
i cant wait to install this rom when the new version is out. im still on sokp rom and need to move to something new. this rom and its features seem the best out at the moment prior to lollipop roms. keep up the good work archi. also your boefla profile is simply amazing.

[MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION] I installed your latest 24/12 AD3.0.1 experimental and it working fantastic! thank you for this ultimate rom with fully working HWComposer..

I tested 'Show GPU view updates' and its really RED on screen. Hooray!!

BTW one question though, if I tick the Force GPU rendering (for 2d) and Disable HW overlays, will it saves more battery since it use HWC for 2d for all the time?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
No, don't do that. Forcing GPU rendering takes freedom from Android. Android knows better what to render with CPU, and what with GPU.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cangcan:
luckily I asked. thank you master! no issue so far with the latest experimental.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ng1998:

Well for best performance results i have informed my friend to install the newest release cleanly (with a factory reset wipe i mean) because i guess that this release is the final KK ArchiDroid release and after wards it will be LP based

i hope we get fully working HWC also with the upcoming AD 3.1.x series :fingers-crossed:

BTW is it ok to install AK 1.7 in AROMA, but the non-stock variant to have some OC and boeffla sound goodness ?

thanks Archi for such a big xmas gift :good:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sputnikk23:
Great ROM so far except I have two problems right now:

1) MMS works but SMS does not. I'm in Ireland. Provider is three. Set SMSC # from here: http://ask3.three.ie/SRVS/CGI-BIN/W...Web,T=Casedoc,varset_CatID=1868,Case=obj(4245) (and mentioned in lots of other places). still no go. stuck on sending.

2) any shortcut notifications options on the lock screen by default in this rom (like activedisplay or shortened notifications?)

Edit: I can receive but not send. Seems like a SMSC thing. I've rebooted. #*#*4636#*#* to verify SMSC, etc.

This latest version has some problems with rendering.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Depressed T.Bear:
Like Obama told you: Yes you can!

But if you face any strange problems, a clean install (including wiped internal memory) is recommended.

I personally didn't make a clean flash since weeks ;) and I'm always up to date with the experimentals... You just have to know how to fix things! :D

Had the same on the very first experimental, but only with the first sms i tried to send... Sms app fc, but the sms was still send.

I suggest you a ultra clean wipe and reinstall. Don't restore sms! First try to send an sms.

Can't confirm that. On which dpi are you? Clean install or dirty flash?

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sputnikk23:
Nvmd. Got it. Had Voice+ activated for all apps.

Still curious about the notifications on the lock screen.

Also, since flashing 3.0.1 after a few minutes of tethering the phone requires a long power press to start back up. 2 of them actually so I'm guessing it freezes.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
HWComposer is still in early state, however I didn't notice anything similar on my phone.

Make sure to full wipe.

There must be a way to fix the camera on Aosp roms for our s3! Every single aosp rom has camera issue's. I think ive nailed down the cause, it seems to be when using more than one app that uses camera or something similar. I get: cant connect camera and have to restard the phone... Other people have the issue so its not just me. But it is the reason why im sticking to stock all the time. I tried this rom as i love it but camera issue still there ????

Hello folks,

I've been running Vikingways classic clean ROM for about 2 years now without changing anything. However, I just got an activity band that requires Bluetooth 4.0 BLE (and the Vikingway ROM runs android 4.1~), so i figured why not flash something flashy in order to get the required android version to get BLE. Ive been running CyanogenMod before the Vikingway, and i really enjoyed it, so I thought id give it another shot.

Now, it was 2 years ago I got into the whole flashing, rooting, etc, and am very rusty atm. That's why before I get in to it all again, I would just like to ask you guys if its possible to do the following:

Can I backup all my phone data, completely wipe the phone, and then flash the CyanogenMod? Or do I need to do more changes before? I have replaced the stock recovery to ClockworkMod btw.

I know this is one of the lazy make-it-work-quickly questions. But Ive been into the whole research-from-the-ground-deal before, and managed. So i have no problem getting into it again if needed. However, if all it takes is a wipe and then flashing the CyanogenROM, it would save me alot of time and id be able to enjoy my new christmas gift sooner ^^

Thanks in advance for any advise,

Cheers,

Byxl
