Notice to experimental & stable users using 240/241 DPI.

I'm going to remove 241 DPI, as this was a workaround for some CyanogenMod bugs, but as for now I can't reproduce them on KitKat and if you won't find anything as well I'm going to remove 241 DPI in 2.2.6.

If you know what I'm talking about please make some tests on 240 DPI, because it looks much more cool than current 241 version. For example superuser request is a nice popup instead of whole screen.

Thank you in advance. Remember that stable version depends on you :).

Works perfectly here, including pocket mode.

Nova launcher Prime

Hi all,

Im loving the 2.2.5

But I wonder, anyone has any experience with the paid version of Nova? Will it sacrifise the performance? Is it worth?

Tks and regards
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
In terms of performance, no. Not really.

Is it worth the price? Definitely yes. It gives you more flexible launcher with a ton of options to choose from. They're not core, but they're very useful and nice.

Also it's a perfect way to support a developer.

Just remember that if you want to use paid nova, you should stay with google's (aosp) launcher in AROMA, and in the next update (not after full wipe) you can select "none" launcher to keep your nova launcher only. Eventually you can have a two.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] strubius:
Archi, tks.

But as far as I remember, I had to choose (upon flashing) between AOSP and Nova... If I choose AOSP, I loose Nova, no? Or am I mixing 2 different things? Bear with me, I am IT-wised plain stupid...

Regards
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
ArchiDroid installs AOSP launcher always, then...

Nova -> Installs nova free to /data/app, removes AOSP

AOSP -> Does nothing.

None -> Removes AOSP

Of course if you select "none" after full wipe then you won't have any launcher and it may end in a bootloop or similar. That's why I told you to install AOSP, because if you select nova then you may need to remove nova free in order to use nova paid. And deleting launcher will keep you with no launcher at all, thus may cause problems.

However if you're updating with already having nova paid, then you can safely stick with "none" options, as it will remove your AOSP launcher (only), thus leaving no useless launcher behind in the resources.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] strubius:
I am more confused now...

I tried AOSP in one of my 2.2.4 flashing, didn't like it because it didn't allow "infinite scroll". I do love Nova. So, after I pay for Nova Prime, how do you suggest I should proceed? Do you need me to supply some more info on my config (and how do I do it?)?

Thanks a lot for your work.

Regards

P.S. Im using 2.2.5 with Nova (clean and custom install)

Camera Problems

I'm having problem with video recording ratio. It either gets too thin or too fat. Anyone else has this problem?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] The King Tyrone:
dosent work :(

I was on Archie 2.2.4, now ive upgraded to 2.2.5,,, it keeps going back to phils touch recovery even after a full wipe,, evein after i had to go back to my old Rom, then a clean flash it still gose back to Recovery every time why dose it do that????? the recovery fix thing dont work ether,, im back on my old Nandro:eek:id Rom now.:eek:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Suhayl Memon:
Flash with AOSP launcher, then go into play store and download the paid version and make it always default launcher and on next ArchiDroid update you can select no launcher and your paid Nova Launcher will be preserved
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PilgrimToHyperion:
I have to apologize for not seeing this. And I even went to the known issues section :eek:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] strubius:
Once I read you for the third time, I think I get your meaning. I install the paid now, eventually removing the free one, then, on next rom, I choose "update" instead of clean install. However, if for some reason, I wish to go back on a previous rom (and do a full wipe/clean install), how can I pack in the paid version of Nova, instead of the free?

Regards
[Galaxy S III Android Development] FadeFx:
[MENTION=5510433]strubius[/MENTION]

I would suggest to never use "none" as if there is a problem with your installed launcher that causes it to fc, for example by a bad update or setting or accidental uninstalling, you are left without a launcher and a non functional system.

Backup the Nova launcher with titanium backup, for later use with any ROM

Always install a ROM with stock launcher (AOSP / Tochwiz) then restore Nova from backup and choose Nova instead of stock launcher

Has anyone had this issue at all?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] beerlao:
I'm using latest development version and set DPI to 240. All looking very well except Tapatalk 4. Once I update tapatalk through the play store it falls back to phablet mode (split screen), which is unusable for me on S3's screen. Setting its DPI to 241 or 320 through app settings did not help. Restoring from titanium works well, even with DPI set to 240. Tried also to set dpi for play store to 241 via xposed (play store fixes), no luck though.

Archi. Just curious to know how I use archi restore efs script. Just incase i need to use it in the future. Hopefully not!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] hesian:
Yes, I also have audio stuttering (regardless of player) from external SD card.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
You just need to execute RestoreEFS script in /data/media/0/ArchiDroid/Scripts folder. However please don't mess up with /efs unless you really mean it.

You can eventually find backups in /data/media/0/ArchiDroid/Backups.

Hi, I'm using ArchiDroid V2.2.5 and there is a slight annoyance with it.

I run my phone without a lock screen. When i press the center button to wake it up from sleep, it seems to think I've done a long press and consistently open the task manager (if the screen is only off and the phone hasn't slept yet this doesn't happen). This didn't use to happen on 2.2.4. I can live with it, just thought I'd let you know.

JustArchi,

I'm more than sure that everyone here respects your choice!

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andro_king:
OmniRom is about to reach new heights. Well, good decision at right time by [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION]..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mika83AC:
Even if i'm not using your rom, i agree with your decission! Device maintainers are top most important, and CM has no more for the I9300. So OMNI is the only logical step forward.

And i'll have a closer look at your rom if Temasek isn't switching to OMNI, too ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MuerteDiablo:
Personally I don't really care what it's based on as long as it works :) Do what you feel is the best Archi:thumbup: I'll flash it anyway :) although I'm still on 2.2.3:eek: but that's just because i'm lazy:D:p

Go go [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION]
[Galaxy S III Android Development] IUnga:
+1 for Omni!

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] beerlao:
For me it seems to be the right decision. From my point of view the fact that Omni has active device maintainers for S3 makes is just a logical step to move on to Omni. Of course, as there is no time pressure right now as both Omni and CM11 are in early development state, you could have waited for some more time to see how Omni is developing, but if you consider it now to be the ideal point of time, then go ahed - I will follow you there :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] alatariell:
Probebly the best decission Arch! To me its all voodoo you guys do (Tema, Christian and and you) getting it all so stable without the support of an official CM maintainer.

One question about your Omni source. I was checking the changelogs of kernels. At the moment i am using yank's kernel and the changelog of his omni version kernel says:

Changelog OMNI-4.4 v1.6g-beta2 (compared to CM10.2 v1.6g) :

updated mali r3p2 drivers from Update 12 source drop (GPU OC is lost for now !)

removed GPU OC settings from Aroma and script generator

updated AROMA to 2.70RC2

updated to latest OMNI kernel sources (s3cfb: i9300 update12)

ramfs : updated to OMNI nightly 20131125

Does that mean that in your Omni source (experimental) the mali drivers are also updated?

Thanks for the best Rom for our beloved S3 and keep up the outstanding work!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] guerouig:
up to now, I just kept an eye on your wonderfull work. I'm constantly switching between Tema and Omni, and, as a heavy user flashoholic, I can tell that OMNI is really the way forward; I hope Tema will follow you by the end of this month. I'm eagerly waiting for your Omni based rom, and, for what it's worth, I think you made the right decision that so many of us were so "anguishly" expecting, after so many defection of i9300 good maintainers. All the very best, friend, with a few millions of your likes, the world would a much better place to live in.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] alatariell:
Just flashed your Omni experimental after a full wipe. All look good. The only thing i am missing here is root. I cant seem to find it in the rom. BBS and TB saying there is no root. Is it missing or do we need to flash supersu seperately to obtain root? Also missing the blacklist option badly :P

Cheers
[Galaxy S III Android Development] guerouig:
for the moment, you need to flash superSU v1.69 zip, each and every time you flash Omni

[Galaxy S III Android Development] XpLoDWilD:
Just to clarify this particular point, we're not forked from CyanogenMod :) We are forked from AOSP, and we pulled in a few patches required for device support, as well as multiple changes we made on our own (such as the mali update).

being new to archidroid, I'm wondering, with such huge file (rom + gapps+ so many goodies), how does archie go about updates? surely it can't be like Tema or omni where we download the whole rom on a daily basis.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mika83AC:
I think archie doesn't provide updates every day like our crazy temasek does ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MuerteDiablo:
You will need to download the whole rom every time there's an update.

Major updates are only released when archi thinks its time and only in the weekends.

And you don't have to update every time:)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
I waited for a month, and what I can see, I can see the same thing which CM had in the very first days, bunch of happy developers actively contributing and improving the base.

Yes they are. 2.3 is based completely on Omni, so everything Omni-based should and will work.

Sorry for wrong statement my friend. I hope that I'll be able to fix my mistake on your gerrit :cool:.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schooner:
Looking forward to flashing this omni ROM.

One question regarding your 2.2.4 ROM i have noticed that i cannot select destination in maps. When i tap and hold , the pin drops fine and when i tap it to go into the details of it, it just says "maps has stopped"

Any ideas? I thought it might have to do with xprivacy and not allowing google see my location but its not!

Slightly annoying because i need the maps for The weekend
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Just remove inverted maps and install original from google play.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Actually, no. I do provide updates as frequent as temasek. It's called experimental versions and are available with much more info on github section in the first post.

In comparision with temasek's daily builds it's even more flexible because with github you're only downloading changes between builds when you're about to flash. Single updated sources version usually has around ~20 Megabytes only.

The whole point in experimental versions is the point that you're flashing when and if you want to. You can flash every day because I release "nightly/daily" version, you can update once per few days, or you can update once per stable release, or even once per mayor release. I don't care, it's up to you.

I only suggest using github app and my repo if you're about to flash frequently, because you're updating very small "ota" github packages instead of whole pack.

Just added. Remember that my omni is not even merged to experimental yet. It's alpha, incomplete package. After a few days it'll be much more complete.

Issue with installing v2.2.5

I have downloaded the zip file from the download site twice and the install fails during the Flash process with this error:

set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed

This happens just after : setting permissions

To test if there was no issues with the internal system of S3, proceeded with Tamesek's cm11 and that installed without any issues

I again retried the flash by doing a complete wipe.

I am using twrp recovery

and again failed with the same error

As i had a backup, so restored back to Tamesek's KitKat

Can u have a look at this and advise

Battery usage

Hi all,

I may have a problem with the way I configured V2.2.5. I noticed the battery doesn't last through the day, and sometimes I must use both batteries. So, reading some stuff (and understanding very few), I see I can disable (how?) some wakelocks (which?) to save battery.

I have the processor set to Performance-1600 (set on boot), I/O Scheduler ROW (not set on boot), Allow purging of assets in Memory Management (no ZRam), and 16 bit transparency set to off.

Any ideas on what to do?

Audio stuttering workaround

Just a workaround for the audio stuttering, which is hopefully not mentioned yet:

I activated the DAC Direct option in Boeffla sound options and stuttering is way for me. I think the problem is in the software rendering. FLAC files have no compression at all, so there should be no problem with software rendering with them.

Hope this helps for someone.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
DAC Direct breaks Spirit Radio.

So it's a workaround, not a solution. That's right.

After using archi 1.7 maybe I'll be switching to this one when you release omni version.

You seem to be working a lot in this in the last days, I'm following you github and 1.x version seems to have stopped a bit.

What's missing in the alpha version?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
1.X gets only universal additions from 2.X (such as updated apps, my backend, archidroid functions) and of course sammy releases.

Why? Because there's nothing to dig there anymore. Until samsung releases anything all releases will get only updated apps and nothing else. 1.X is something what I call stable, finished rom. Nothing is missing, everything is complete. While 2.X is never finished, there's always something to improve :D.
