Hey Arch,

I've searched through the thread and also through Omni's one, and didn't find an answer or an issue for this.

Does GPS has any known problems in 4.4.2? when I start using a navigation app (waze for example, applies also for google maps), after a few seconds it doesn't fix it self, and it's searching for a location. I tried FasterGPS to configure a different NTP server, and tried GpsFix - when it does work, a few seconds later it disconnects.

I used the location services on 'Device Only', and also on high accuracy - except that it eats lot more battery it didn't really help.

I'll appreciate your help, thanks.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
I didn't have any issues with GPS on stable release, even going further - I opened google maps on latest experimental and it tracks my position excellent. So sorry, can't reproduce, maybe local problems?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] bobik666:
Wierd, can hardware issues be related you think?

Or is there some method to 'reset Gps cache / data' or something similar?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
I don't think so, but I'd point my finger at some incompatible app.

Try google maps, does it track your current position correctly (and fast)? Because in my case, it's no more than a few seconds before estimated position, and a few more for very accurate one.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] bobik666:
I have just tested it while moving (I'm on a bus) :

When I click on my location it tracked it fast, and more accurately after few sec, but, on movement it has a delay, it updates only after 2-3 seconds.

I forgot to mention that on Sammy roms (stock or even your 1.17) Gps is a bit more fast and accurate.

Do you have reboot device after you have activated gravitybox in xposed app?

Nevermind.

Very nice rom :)

Has anyone else been experiencing extremely poor battery life?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mhb92:
a lot of people including me :p my battery drains like hell.. :D maybe its the new modem.. someone posted before that he had less battery drain with mk6 modem
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cerealguy:
for fonts go here http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/themes-apps/updated-15-10-xdapowerfontsaosp4-x-t2176490 and read the instructions;

[Galaxy S III Android Development] adwiel:
As long as I am using custom ROMs I have battery drain issues.

After a clean install of 2.3.9 battery life seemed in first instance excellent, even after I installed my apps.

But when I started using my phone the other day, the battery problems were back.

I am using Greenify, and installed this time without the option "fast dormancy".

Using Better Batterystats does in general not point me in the good direction of the root cause.

Most times the following have the most kernel wakelocks.

L2_hsic , and Multipdp.

Battery live is the only problem for me with this ROM (and also with all other ROMs I tried).

Any root cause finding tips are welcome.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ScarletCrimson:
Yeah, on 2.3.9 my battery life got extremely bad and phone was always hot even while I was using it lightly. I reverted to 2.3.8 and it seems fine now.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kalda01:
What modem have you used with 2.3.9 ? I had poor battery life with NA8 modem, but after switching back to MK6 the battery

life is back to normal. Also I found that turning off WIFI outside the house greatly reduces the drainage.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] adwiel:
I used the NA8 modem.

During night I switch off UMTS, wifi and bluetooth, but battery still drains (more than 1% per hour)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jamezb3:
Just looking in the op, I see that there is a picture of pie. Is that in the rom or through xpsosed and GravityBox? Also is there a way to turn up colour saturation?

I am currently on temasek 50 but since the thread was closed due to whinging little pricks.

I am looking for a new rom to migrate to and I have tried this but colour saturation and no pie I went back to temasek 50.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] stasiof:
I flashed back MK6 modem and battery drain is much better.

Also updated with new GravityBox 3.0.0...more options.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cerealguy:
+1, but I have BOUGMK3 modem and battery drain is the same...+/- 1% per hour...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kalda01:
1% drain per hour is not good ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cerealguy:
During the night, in offline mode... I think no... Do you have the same ?

Inviato dal mio Bam+Boeffla i9300
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kalda01:
I don't really care over night when the charger is plugged in. Never bothered to check what happens with the battery overnight.

I start the day with 100% and normally when I return at night I have over 50% battery left.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Madhina:
Anyone can help me, Why all my setting lose after i reboot my phone ?? I set my notification light always on when the screen actives but when i reboots my phone all my setting do not work :crying:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
So you actually didn't read Q&A about colors used by ArchiDroid and you didn't select LMK which provides pie during flashing. Where is your question again? :p
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DF5JT:
HD voice

I am really happy with this ROM, except for one thing: My network provider (drei.at)supports HD voice, i.e. amr wb codec. unfortunately it seems to be disabled here, so the speech quality is truly atrocious in comparison.

How can I check the status and enable/disable HD voice?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jamezb3:
Ha ha busted. Ok cheers mate I will flash again to today and post feedback. :)

Also I cant find where it says about colours. Sorry to be a pain.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] bristolian:
Dont know if anyone else sees what i get. When i use the back button to back out on and app, i get a random app pop open for a brief second and then the home screen. It causes no problem. Its just weird.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Notice to fellow experimental users :).

O2 for thumb is back in experimental, with a dirty "hack" for working exfat - I compiled mount.exfat with Os, then the whole system with O2, and added an overlay for mount.exfat, so we can have the system in O2, and mount.exfat in Os.

This is NOT a nice solution, I don't like it. Probably I'll ask more experienced developers to perhaps find a root of this issue and fix it so we could have working O2 for the whole ROM without needing to use such dirty methods.

Anyway, enjoy O2 while you can ;).

http://jira.omnirom.org/browse/OMNI-796

We'll see if anybody from Omni could find a culprit.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
This O2 is even faster than I thought, the whole system is flying :eek: :cool:. Hope we won't find any more issues apart from mount.exfat.

Time for ArchiDroid 2.4... ;).

Same thing here with 2.3.8. Think it was also present with .7

Even have a few ms of old screen after wake with home button.

Saw this report for a few other kitkat roms as well, not really bothering me but probably pretty annoying for some people...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] maddowse:
i have reverted back to archidroid 1.7.12 as its jelly bean 4.3 because iv read up on kitkat and it seem over all platforms its causeing massive battery drain , guess ill wait for a better version of kitkat .

thanks for the replys .

i dont think its the rom i think its the base kitkat thats causing it .

[MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION] Tell me if I'm asking for too much, but since [MENTION=4958387]UtkarshGupta[/MENTION] doesn't have a i9300 device, maybe we could try https://gerrit.omnirom.org/#/c/6370/ in an experimental build?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Duka:
Hi Archi,

Still loving this ROM, seems with each iteration you are optimising it even more and is getting faster and more stable. :highfive:

I have found one little oddity and was just wondering if you could explain further why it may be happening.

It does not cause any issues and everything is working perfectly and I am sure it is something to do with the App's code itself but thought you may have a better understanding why it happens. Also I have all my partitions formatted as ext4 including extSD card.

With the Audible (Audio Books) App it lets you choose a download location for files within the app (but it only shows the locations that it recognises as SDcard root locations). Within this app it lets me choose either "/storage/emulated/0" or "/mnt/media_rw/sdcard1".

It does not show /storage/sdcard1 however the /mnt/media_rw/sdcard1 goes to the same physical sdcard location underneath so this causes no problems.

The one bit of odd behaviour I have found is that when viewing the extSDcard from computer when connected via cable, I can see the directory created by Audible but no files within it, this also happens when using a File browser on the phone when in location /storage/sdcard1.

However when I go to /mnt/media_rw/sdcard1 in the file browser I can see the directory as well as all files in there.

I was just wondering if within the mounting/scripts etc there is different permissions between these locations that may be causing the files to be hidden in one but visible in the other.

If you don't know an immediate reason then don't stress about looking into it as like I said everything still works and I can copy the files from /mnt/media_rw/sdcard1 to a new directory in /storage/sdcard1 using a file browser to back them up from a computer if I wish.

Cheers,

Duka

Is any thing wrong i am doing, please help:(:(

Multi User mode

Hi Archi, just a quick question and hoping am not a bother. I have tried using the multi-user mode in xposed but whenever i try to set it up in 2.3.8 i get to the stage where I need to enter google account for the second user, first I can only use google voice to set it up, no keyboard available. secondly when i get past this i get multiple FCs, system ui FCs and i have to always go back to the admin user account or restart the phone. Even after reboot i still cannot have a second user on the phone. Maybe you could look into this to find out the cause. Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kalda01:
I have noticed that any app with white background does not appear to be clear and sharp as it was before. it appears somewhat fogy.

I've compared to same app on another Galaxy Nexus with stock rom and definitely the white background appears much sharper and clean. why is that ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
This is a problem with the base, or at least it looks like this. Keyboard is my stuff - if you're using non-stock keyboard then probably it won't be available for second user.

Check if barebones preset works correctly, probably it won't, then check official Omni nightly. If it doesn't work as well, http://jira.omnirom.org

This is because you don't read Q&A.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kalda01:
I did in fact try to change the MDNIE settings, but it seems to have no effect on the display background.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] drizztSA:
So was the mic problem fixed
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Nothing apart from MDNIE has been changed that could affect display. The last thing which I may suggest is "sharpness tweak" available in boeffla app under display settings.

Looks very shiny. The top part is mostly above me but looks like the core OS will be more responsive & quicker. Sounds good.

Any reason for removing TouchPal? Not a big deal, just interested as I use it.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
O2 for target thumb is the most important flag of the whole ArchiDroid optimization process. If you take a look at my community test, 9 out of 10 users blindly pointed a finger on the O2/O3 build in terms of performance. Key-word: blindly, they didn't know that these builds have other compilation flags.

This is the reason why I decided to bump ArchiDroid 2.X to 2.4. Mostly because I'm implementing something very, very experimental, and there's no other way to test it than releasing it. I want to have 2.3.9 as oldstable if something weird pops up. Even if I can't find anything apart from mount.exfat being broken, I know that something may be, even if logcat doesn't say it.

Of course it doesn't mean that 2.4 will be unstable or anything. ArchiDroid is rock solid and stable, if something is broken I can easily find out what exactly and fix it, this was with -fipa-pta flag and weird audio issues, it took a few days, but I fixed it.

The quality of stable releases depends highly on community which tests experimental ones. The whole point of having experimental releases is to allow advanced users get really "nightly" version of ArchiDroid, to eventually find bugs and fix them before going stable. If I can't find any real issue, neither any tester, then we have green light for stable release. Thanks to such "policy", if I remember correctly only one ArchiDroid 1.X version was broken, when newly updated inverted apps didn't work.

For example, during this experimental phase we've been testing all changes included in the changelog, additionally to that new Unified NLP, which is not included right now due to bugs (see ArchiDroid issues).

Also, ArchiDroid is one of the most cutting-edge ROMs in terms of "the inside", even if it doesn't offer many UI features like temasek, you know that it's the fastest, most battery friendly and rock solid Android available :D. Thanks to Omni developers I don't need to improve the base on my own and we can have rock-solid base, ready for ArchiDroid tweaking and improvements, such as recent optimizations.

This is ArchiDroid! :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] start3r:
Excellent, thanks for taking the time to respond in such depth. I think people sometimes forget the amount of work you put into your releases. Been a fan for some time now. Have tried other builds (usually for other features/gimmicks) but always end up coming back to your builds because of the stability & speed of your builds. That and the fact you actively support your users and welcome constructive feedback. Keep up the good work, it is very much appreciated.

Thanks for this amazing ROM!

I can't find any way of setting up volume profiles in ArchiDroid - am I missing it, or do I need an app to do it?

Mentioned by JustArchi.

If you like to get the Experimental now! (Source from 2nd post)

ArchiDroid version contains 3 numbers. X.Y.Z. X is the base number of the rom. For now it won't change because ArchiDroid 1 is based on Sammy Rom and ArchiDroid 2 is based on CyanogenMod. Basically we have two numbers left, Y and Z. Y number will change when I'll implement something really new, when I'll make some advanced improvements or after many Z changes. Z number is the "standard" update, like updated sources, some bugfixes and so on.

I've learned many things since releasing of first ArchiDroid 1.0.0. Because of that I've also created a GitHub repository, which you can find here. What does it mean for you? First of all as you can see there are 4 different branches. 1.X-STABLE, 1.X-EXPERIMENTAL, 2.X-STABLE and 2.X-EXPERIMENTAL. What does it mean? You can enter selected branch and click on "Commits" button to see every single update which I've made to selected branch. Experimental branches will get updates nearly every single day, especially 2.X-EXPERIMENTAL because of many CM changes and updates. Additionally after some tests I'll merge current 2.X-EXPERIMENTAL into 2.X-STABLE every week and provide as "weekly update", of course if current experimental will be stable enough to do so.

However that doesn't mean you need to wait for my updates! You can easily "pack" latest experimental and flash without needing to wait for my weekly build. I'll tell you how to download and flash it by yourself.

You can see differences between current stable and experimental here.

[Newbie Version]

1. Open 2.X-EXPERIMENTAL branch.

2. Click on Download Zip button located in bottom-right corner.

3. Install 7-Zip if you don't have that already. Other programs may, or may not work correctly.

4. Right-Click on zip, select Extract Here

5. Navigate to newly created ArchiDroid-2.X-EXPERIMENTAL folder

6. Select all files WITHOUT __dont_include folder, right-click and select 7-Zip => Add to archive

7. Make sure that you have zip format, Fastest compression (to save some megabytes) and Deflate method of compression.

8. Voila, copy newly created ArchiDroid-2.X-EXPERIMENTAL.zip to your phone and flash as usual.

[Expert Version]

1. Install Git for Windows or Linux

2. If you're on windows then make sure that windows won't change LF into CRLF (git config --global core.autocrlf false)

3. Clone my git repository using .git file. Keep in mind to specify depth, as this repo is really big. (git clone https://github.com/JustArchi/ArchiDroid.git --branch 2.X-EXPERIMENTAL --depth 1)

4. Select all files WITHOUT __dont_include folder zip them into standard .zip format with Deflate compression or without any compression.

5. Copy .zip to your phone and flash as usual

6. In order to update your local repo execute git pull origin 2.X-EXPERIMENTAL and go to point 4.

Additionally you can watch my short video, which shows how to flash experimental ArchiDroid going through "Expert Version".
