It's WIP and not finished. Also, Linaro hasn't released any build with GCC 4.9 yet, which means that I'd need to compile it from scratch which definitely won't be a good idea.

Also, my ArchiDroid's optimizations, O2, strict aliasing and more, definitely affect android much more than bumping GCC version. Remember that it's not "easy" update, as GCC 4.8 wouldn't be possible without this or this. And I'm very confident that you don't want to see broken builds caused by unknown errors and various segmentation faults.

GCC bumps are risky, as they may work properly, or they may not. Same goes with java. Java 1.8 brings enhancements and shouldn't cause issues, but I can't compile Android with it, as it in fact causes various errors.

Currently, ArchiDroid 2.X is compiled with:

Linux ArchiDroid 3.13-1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 8.0 "Jessie" (Testing) 3.13.7-1 (2014-03-25) x86_64 GNU/Linux

Java version "1.7.0_51"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_51-b13)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.51-b03, mixed mode)

Linaro 14.03 GCC 4.8 (Android)

Google's GCC 4.8 (Kernel)

JustArchi's ArchiDroid Optimizations

Android optimizations itself are more or less finished, I've ran out of flags to test, more is described in the commit above. Now I can only update my environment - GCC, Java and machine itself.

In general yes, I'm "trying" to use best possible option for performance and battery BUT in the same time I don't want to cause any stability issues, which happened for example during -fipa-pta flag and various sound issues. When GCC 4.9 comes out, I'll definitely test one or two builds with it, but if it won't compile or won't work stable then I'll have to wait until someone fixes the culprit.

I want to to have the normal Google play not the blacked one so if I flashed the gapps will I have any problem ??
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
I'll repeat once more. If I applied something and you didn't have a choice for that in my aroma wizard, then it exists for pretty damn good reason. You're asking for troubles.

Guys, flashoholics, AD's&Omni's fans - if you are crazy about new, freshly merged commits into Omni project you should definitely give a try to OmniROM Changelog app.

Just a piece of news. ;)

[Galaxy S III Android Development] vldesco:
Hi, I know that there is a camera fix for Omni. I am using ArchiDroid since v2.4 (updated to v2.4.1 and now to v2.4.2)

the fact is, I read that the fix is already included in the ROM, but I got the "Can't connect Camera" error after taking 5 pics, first the camera (stock) went laggy, I had to kill it, when restarted, I got the error message...camera works again after run RestartCamera app.

Some users said they didn't need flash any fix, others said that is need, due to this, it is uncertain to me if I must flash the fix after the rom and what fix to flash (I suppose omni lib V4). Any advice will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
The fix you're mentioning is the same included in Omni already, so you're literally flashing placebo effect, which can only cause more harm than good. But sure, if it helps you and you think that camera crashes less or even doesn't crash at all, flash whatever you want.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] vldesco:
So, no fix needed, the weird think is, I tried to reproduce the crash with no luck (camera is working fine this time)...Maybe We are facing another type of camera bug. If it helps, I will try to reproduce and get some logcat.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Tyrigi:
Archi I tried to switch from archi 1.x o this, I tried use f2f format now i can't install zip from recovery, when i click install zip from sd card it say "Error mounting /data" also if i use "clean to install new rom" or formatting manual data, what can I do? >.< first time that im brick.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] __Michael__:
I think the best way to come back to ext its to flash stock ROM with full wipe.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] boyheadkick:
try flashing a different recovery through odin
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Tyrigi:
Can't install any zip from this recovery.... now I will try flash recovery trough odin
[Galaxy S III Android Development] __Michael__:
If it will not fix the problem, you can install the stock ROM via Odin.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mostafa Wael:
Hello archi,

Thanks for the themes engine.

I just wanted to ask a question;

Which is better for our android-4.4-powered S3s, O3 or O2?

I saw a ROM that had "O3 optimizations" so i got confused.

I thought that O2 is the best in terms of performance. Can you please explain your point of view in building with O2 instead of O3? (I am just curious to know, of course i will not change ROM!)

Thanks alot for themes chooser.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cepsisx:
I wonder if the line could be the problem why I made full wipe
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Let me quote ArchiDroid's 2.4 changelog:

Hope it answers your question, if not, let me know.

In general, Os optimizes purely for size, smallest possible binary. O3 optimizes purely for speed, fastest possible binary, O2 is something between Os and O3.

O3 does not always produce faster code, in fact, it may procude slower code because instructions may not fit in CPU cache due to being oversized. O3 is a tactic of using every optimization available, which may, or may not, increase performance, even if it doubles or triples the code size. In fact O3 gives faster compute speed, but Android is not a benchmark, and it benefits more from O2.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Tyrigi:
Tried with philz recovery same problem "E: could no moun /data to setup /data/media path!" but with this i can install zips, flashing archi from there still fail when write on /data, now im downloading a stock rom for flash via odin let's hope that will work :c
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Seems like a serious problem. Try formatting of /data and /data/media in recovery.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
A typical example between O2 and O3:

Consider such java source code:

for (int i=0; i < 10; i++) {
System.out.println(i);
}

When using O2, it stay as it is. When using O3, this code will be optimized and result in following:

System.out.println(0);
System.out.println(1);
System.out.println(2);
System.out.println(3);
System.out.println(4);
System.out.println(5);
System.out.println(6);
System.out.println(7);
System.out.println(8);
System.out.println(9);

Is it faster? Yes it is, we don't need to use for loop and increase the i variable. Is it worth such optimization? Ask yourself.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Tyrigi:
It worked thanks, but continue to fail installation of rom, also after mounted, so I tried with all "f2f" flags and now it booted up, I risked so much that time, I want know if this f2f would improve launching time of apps and switching from them, thanks anyway.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mostafa Wael:
Thanks alot Archi for immediate answer on my question. that is fantastic!

Now i understood. And i am more confident that there is NOT A SINGLE ROM FASTER THAN YOURS!!

Wish you the best Archi!

Ohh btw when activating battery saving mode there is a 3-second lag when pressing on the "app drawer" icon on the homescreen. You need to disable the battery saving mode and reboot to get this bug fixed.

Can you please take a look?

Thanks again for shedding some light on my quest!

Wish you the best!

Ohh just one more;

Can i return to ext4 filesystem from your partition wizard?

Or will it damage my phone? I had problems earlier when reformatting to ext4 and i had to flash a Stock ROM through ODIN.

Is it a must that i have to flash a stock ROM through ODIN to have my phone back to ext4 sucfessfully?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] LegendM:
If it's true

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=51829504&postcount=390

Can you put them into your rom to?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Partition wizard is pretty useless at the moment, as it supports only /system and /preload partitions. But yeah, you can go back to ext4 on these two.

And battery saver mode is WIP, if you want to help or report bug, you should use gerrit.omnirom.org and write proper comment. I'm only cherry-picking community requests, consider all of them as early access to such features.

Also, most of the people who use famous "O3 optimizations" have no idea what they're doing. O3 performs faster than Os, this is the fact. But it performs as good as O2, or even worse than O2, while O2 still provides smaller code. And we know that smaller code is faster code :). Also, they're using O3 only for ARM instructions (those, which have O2 by default!), so it doesn't give any noticable improvement. Kernel does not do any complex things, optimizing kernel is pointless, however optimizing android is a key.

The most usual cherry-picked commit for O3 is this one:

https://github.com/IAmTheOneTheyCal...mmit/2c1e134c8a97cbc02adf7888327a7a276a7c4846

Compare it to mine:

https://github.com/JustArchi/android_build/commit/0971d972156913363cb71358278cb3230a1e5a96

Especially TARGET_thumb flags (90% of Android).

I have a problem with the last experimental version 2.4.3 with video recording. The framerate is very low.

I was using all old versions until 2.4.2 and it was really perfect. Does this change depends on you archidroid, or on omnirom team?

Ok, after tons of months spent with perfectly compiled & well cooked AD 1.X (endless hats off [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION]) let's give another try to AOSP. Ofcourse it must mean only one way - AD2.X, welcome. ;)

With every hour with Omni I must say I feel more and more convinced I made a right choice. :)

install a heavy app game and report and the u can choose again :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
You might have not got a point of my android journey ;)

I'm not one of these heavy-games players looking also for the best antutu-srututu score.

My goal is to use rom giving me few basic things such as stability, flexibility with insane dev support - and in these categories AD has no opponents. :cool: And, what's more, till now, I feel like the only cons of using Omni is a battery drain which seems to be a little bit higher than in AD 1.X. But, as I said, let's give a try, at least few days, few cycles. Apart from that all is shining with unbelievable smoothness. :cowboy:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] fedex-bermu:
Try boeffla kernel with Archi's profiles. I found lower battery drain with Archi default profile than ultra powersave. There are other profiles and kernels, also you can try adjusting it yourself (Im a noob so I prefer to stick with Archi's).

With that I get almost 20 hours of battery with moderate use.

For me that's more than Enough.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mostafa Wael:
Btw, in the AOSP World, omnirom is the best in terms of battery life believe me!

I tried almost every modded CM11 ROM and Stock omni and CM nightlies and i found that Archidroid 2.X "especially from 2.4 and above" have the best balance between battery life and performance, really! Even i never reached the whopping 4.5hrs of screen on time except with Archidroid 2.X :victory:

And even if there is a CM11 based modded ROM that gave a better battery life, it will never give the performance of Archidroid 2.X series... :good:

I have tried a ROM based on CM11 compiled with linaro 4.8 and sabermod along with O3 optimization 2 days ago. Just curious to see if O3 is better than O2 "and thanks to Archi and his amazing support he clarified it to me why he chose O2 instead of O3 :) )

And yes it had a slightly slightly slightly better battery life, but hell no it has came to a sudden freeze at some times. And also it wasn't that fast as archidroid.

So i think this is quite the best ROM in the AOSP world!

Hope you the best experience [MENTION=5264108]malachow[/MENTION]

[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
Thanks dude, but I wouldn't never-ever flash AD (1.X or 2.X) without boeffla & Archi's ultrappwersave profile. So yeah, I'm already using such mix. :)

What I've discovered this night is perfect deep sleep. Guess what - I didn't turn off wifi & sync and, during my 7hours sleep S3 ate only.. 0% battery! Pretty awesome.

It seems that, really, the only thing is battery drain during active phone usage, but let's give, as I said, few cycles to make final verdict. :)

Happy Easter all!

This is something I've noticed as well and I'm pretty sure it's Omni bug, but before reporting try barebones and latest Omni nightly first.
