Depends if you have some crappy addon or not. If you want to be sure, format /system before flashing, then tap on "Yes, I'm running ArchiDroid!" and select update mode. This will work.

Also, no. UpdateME apk is only for informing you about new stable releases. If somebody doesn't need it, feel free to remove it and save some wakelocks.

I've just update the rom to 2.5.1.

I have a problem when i'm using my bluetooth headset on 3G network. The sound is very distorted.

On 2G everything works fine.

Is this a rom bug, or?

Except that everything running fast and smoothly.

Thanks to the developer(s).

I am getting bootloops after clean flashing 2.5.1 on a repartitioned S3.

I was using the repartition zip for AOSP from here:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Orel1996:
Hello Archi.. I'm very frustrated with what happend to me. I downloaded the latest version of the ROM (2.5.1), and after a long time of setting it up to how I like it and restoring apps, I installed a custom theme called Fi including its boot animation. Everything seemed fine, didn't try to reboot. Then I went to XPosed installer and went to framework and install, then it asked to reboot the device. I accepted, then it went to a very choopy boot animation (maybe like Fi intended or not, I don't know) then a black screen for a while and then just repetitive messages of "com.androidsystemui has stopped" or something similliar.. I'll upload a screenshot of the screen I encountered when I finish restoring my nandroid of the last ROM I was at... Obviously the ROM in its current state was no longer usable.

Why did this happen?

Edit: the screenshot
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SuperAce609:
Something as fundamental as xposed framework should be installed way before you start restoring apps. The theme engine and xposed have a little feud going on. Why do you think some aspects of the theme reset to default when you reboot? (Only when you have xposed installed).

Reflash and this time install xposed framework before you start theming. You can restore all your apps first too if you want. Just make sure you install xposed before applying themes.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Orel1996:
Thanks, didn't know that... Really didn't think installing a theme and then Xposed would make the ROM unusable

Is it possible to include OmniSwitch ?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Grandcru99:
On ad 2.5.1 Google search is still not working for the telephone
[Galaxy S III Android Development] rafaelbo:
Probably not, because ArchiDroid is now based on CM, and Omni Switch is from Omni Rom.

Then again, Omni Switch is pretty awesome, stable and harmless for the stability and speed of the rom...

I just flash a zip with Omni Switch, but I hope Archi includes it in his rom eventually.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] SuperAce609:
So i just learned something new. Having a theme enabled increases ram usage drastically. Launcher always redraws after playing clash of clans. Returned to normal theme and it stopped happening. As well as random slowdowns i used to get.

Is the new theme engine THAT resource hungry?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Android must keep all theme-related things in memory, regardless if you like that or not. If theme is not optimized and have unoptimized resources, yeah, additional memory will be used.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] abhibnl:
Yes! And it is the main reason many recent issues on CM. The main culprit is low RAM on S3. That's why these issues are not present in Slimkat and AOSP based roms. Theme engine is the main reason of memory leaks and clearly it's not optimized for 1gb devices at all!

[Galaxy S III Android Development] rafaelbo:
Ok, so I've done it, reformatted system partition, reflashed on update mode and the camera apk came back, but the camera problems are still there for me... The usual "can't connect to the camera" .

Nobody forces you to use theme engine, remember about that.

You have HDR with this one.

Camera decided to die on me again yesterday. In the middle of Ultra Music Festival. Seems random, I'll reflash clean today and report if the problem still persists.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Googy Max users, please update to latest experimental ASAP.

You can also delete /system/etc/init.d/98ArchiDroid_RunOnce if you find it (it should delete itself automatically after first boot) + restart device to temporarily get rid of a bug if you don't want to flash experimental.

Thanks. And sorry for that but it's not caused by me in any way. This bug doesn't affect any other kernel (stock/temasek's/yank/other) so nothing really urgent.

(Will report this bug to googy when I have some time and more detailed info)

Hello Archi, love your ROMs and been a long time user on my s3. Give fantastic battery life plus extra functionality.

One thing I have noticed in 2.1.x is that when listening to Audio via a bluetooth headset with phone screen off the audio gets choppy and keeps freezing and then restarting. The phone also takes a long time to respond to the headset control buttons. This does not occur with wired headphones.

Is there a setting in Boeffla configuration or Stweaks that may affect the polling or sleeping around bluetooth that I am missing?

I am running the balanced config with your Boeffla config at present.

The headset I use is also configured for phone as well as audio as is used in motorbike helmet if that makes a difference in how the phone sees it rather than just audio device. I will also try switching config in Bluetooth to Audio only instead of phone headset.

Thanks for any info you may be able to provide :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] drdax:
Interesting you say this, I too use a Bluetooth helmet on the bike. 4,1.2 works fine but 4.3 can have lots of drop outs of BT signal.

I think it's a problem with 4,3 and not specific to a custom rom. Although I could be wrong if someone else knows otherwise
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Hey. Thank you for kind words.

This issue may be attached to very many things, as it directly hits my deeper sleep policy and due to limiting frequency while screen is off you're hearing lagging audio.

First of all I suggest entering STweaks and changing zzmoove preset to "Yank's Battery". It's more optimized for latest zzmoove 0.7 than balanced one (which is placeholder for optimized profile by ZaneZam, but he hasn't released it yet). Otherwise you can still stick with PegasusQ if you don't like Yank's battery profile or tweaking on your own.

The next thing is deeper sleep. Deeper sleep is located in /system/build.prop - you can find it under archidroid tweaks. You can comment line with deeper sleep (pm.sleepmode) by adding # on the front. This will enable again deep sleep instead of deeper sleep.

The next thing is overclock of FLL chip. You can adjust it by opening boeffla app and disabling a few options on the main screen.

The next thing is to adjust minimum cpu frequency, again STweaks. Default is 200 mhz, it may be too low sometimes so you need to tweak it and test.

Remember that all of these tweaks will affect your battery life. Personally I'd start with cpu frequency, raise minimum cpu frequency to let's say 400 Mhz and then test. It may be also bluetooth connectivity problem, this is where deeper sleep enters. So personally these two are my shots. It's also possible to get similar result with 200 Mhz minimum by adjusting correctly governor settings, this is why I suggested having fun with zzmoove/pegasusq firstly.

Overall it also may be attached to 4.3 directly so if you won't hear any difference by above tips then sorry but we can only wait for update.

Good luck.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Duka:
Thank you for the quick reply Archi, I'll have a play around with what you have suggested and see where I get.

Even if I get nowhere better still not a deal breaker for me as can't go back to a standard rom anytime soon as too much missing :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Guys, no update this weekend due to small changelog and lack of my time :). Experimental still up-to-date and 2.1.3 coming next weekend!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kopicha:
just a quick update for you. the current 2.1.3 experimental seems to fix quite a bit of the graphic glitch and dpi bug. I am running it with 320dpi on the last Stable build 2.1.2, I notice on certain apps if you rotate the screen and switch back, the text and everything will go all mess up. Been testing the 2.1.3 build for today and seems like the issue is gone. Could not replicate it. Haven't been able to try your past few builds until this one. For some reason I am having issue downloading the zip from Github. File keep dropping when it reaches 10MB or something. And my GitHub windows client also keep crashing. :eek:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
That's right 2.1.3 fixes some glitches because of updated CM source.

About GitHub - No idea, it works perfectly fine here. I'm using client for windows/linux + download as zip, no issues. Maybe it's temporary.

Installation problem

Hi everyone :)

I'm having problems with the installation of this rom. I use TWRP v2.5.0.0 for flashing, but it gets stuck constantly at 8% (at "Executing Archi's Scripts") of the installation.

I'm doing a full wipe...I also restored EFS, but it didn't work. I've tried installing it like 10 times...

What could I do? I've never had this problem with other roms before and I didn't read anyone having it :(
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Known issue, move slowly through aroma and hope for the best. You can also use preset which doesn't cause a risk of freeze.

I always did full wipe. Recently I decided to flash latest experimental and it happened again.

This time I switched the governor from zzmove to pegasusq (btw. I am on ArchiKernel). After this I did not have any freeze anymore. I am not sure if it is related, but I am happy and hope there will be no freeze with this setting.

Build CustomRom on FedoraCore

Hi Volks,

short question, it is possible to build an CustomRom on FedoraCore ?

thanks,

Archi your Rom is great !!!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] vyp54:
So this is my view of the camera for now (talking about 2.5.1). There are 3 scenarios:

1. It opens up normally and you can take pictures.

2. It opens a black screen for around 10 seconds and then the camera view starts and you can take pictures.

3. It opens up with "Can't connect to Camera" error.

I would say the first happens 60% of the time, and the other two 20% each. In my opinion this renders the camera unusable. :rolleyes:

EDIT: For anyone experiencing my problems be sure you're not on F2FS file format. As I've just found out this might be the cause. I will revert back to ext4 today and report if the camera issue persists.
