1. Open an app called "Xposed Installer", in the app open the 'Modules' tab and write down all the modules you currently have installed [pic. 1]

2. Open Titanium, in 'Backup/Restore' tab use the searchbar to find xposed modules [pic. 2]

3. Long tap on the module, and pick the "convert to system app" option, they will turn red once converted [pic. 3]

4. Repeat for all modules

5. Reboot your phone.

Reporting another bug, whatsapp camera gives "cannot connect to camera" problems :\

Regarding my battery life, today it seemed to be better but eventually it was about the same.

BetterBatteryStats log attached
[Galaxy S III Android Development] themulvster:
Hello :)

I don't seem to be able to see the numbers on the dialpad of the phone, I have an i9300 on 2.5.1 with Boeffla Kernel.

I have the Blue Better Kit Kat Theme installed but the dialpad is black with just the letters showing not the numbers.

Can anyone help or recomment an ICS style theme for this ROM? The Dark background with the cyan font and trim? :)

Cheers
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xike:
Search the thread for camera issues cause THEY HAVE BEEN ASKED MILION TIMIES!

4h+ screen time is pretty good on Aosp, doubt you can get much more, so stop complaining.

Most of us rarelly even reach 4h on screen time.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Orel1996:
Don't know if asked regarding whatsapp camera, didn't see that yet.

And I'm "complaining" because I used to have more on my previous AOSP ROM as I showed. Also the user [MENTION=5264108]malachow[/MENTION] said he got 4:30-5:00 SOT on this rom so maybe he could help me.

No need to be so aggressive
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xike:
Whatsapp camera problems? Never heard of here. Overall camera problems? People reported 'cannot connect to camera' quite often, nothing we can do though, there are quite some versions of s3 and some of them have common problems, have you tried reinstalling app/clean system flash though?

The battery life hax:

- change max freq, to 1000mhz

- auto brightness takes more energy

- greenify

- limit widgets

- turn off key backlight

- use apps to set lower brightness (achieved 6h screen time easily watching Twitch.tv with that)

- lower voltage @ cpu freq's

- remove some apps from starting on boot)

I consider it a good day when I reach 4h on sot, my phone lasts 2 days so I do not even get to 3h sometimes. You can probably get 4-5h if you combine wifi and lowest brightness (1 day uptime though, not 2)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Orel1996:
Thanks for the reply, just wondering because on my previous ROM with same usage I had more battery life :p

[Galaxy S III Android Development] SuperAce609:
I installed ultima sammy 4.4.2 and made a /preload swap partition which I was told has no effect on the device since it's barely even used. I asked kryten how I can make it again and I was told this rom has the same option in the install.

is there a way I can make my /preload a hardswap partition without wiping or messing anything up? Does it need to be a clean install? How can I know when it works or not? Can I manage it with boeffla config? All the things I know about swap are only using SD storages and not device partitions.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Short answer: No.

ArchiDroid has an option to make a special swap file (not partition), but using it requires working ArchiDroid Backend.

AFAIK Ultima doesn't support this.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SuperAce609:
Oh, no I already restored back to this rom. I just wanted to check the sammy 4.4.2 out. Where is the swapfile stored? Does it degrade the storage over time too? I really wanted to make use of that preload.

Still getting used to seeing your name that color. Lol, gratz again archi. Well deserved.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Swapfile is stored in $HSPATH/ArchiDroid.swp, where $HSPATH could be /cache, /preload, /storage/sdcard1 or /storage/extSdCard, depending on what you chose in aroma.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] SuperAce609:
Preload it is! Do I need to make any wipes? I can just flash the installation?

Edit: okay, saw the links after I quoted. What app can I use to manage the swap file?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
ArchiDroid will use hardswap as long as it's there, so as long as you won't wipe your partition, this file will stay there.

Additionally, my aroma installer will tell you what is currently used on hardswap page. "Current" is default choice anyway.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
I'd strongly suggest to stick with my aroma installer, as this way you can be sure that nothing goes wrong.

In fact, you don't even need to reflash anything, just launch aroma, go to the hardswap page, make your changes, tap on next and here you go, abort when you see "ready to flash" screen.

You can see whether android is using a swapfile or not through "free" command. ZRAM also shows as "swap".
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SuperAce609:
Thank you! All done. 512 MB hardswap made in /preload. Swapiness and such can't be altered?

This is what was shown after "Applying hardswap":

Done!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
You can adjust swappiness through any init.d script, or manually.

sysctl vm.swappiness - reads actual value.

sysctl -w vm.swappiness=100 - sets value.

Of course as root.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SuperAce609:
Alrightie, understood. So the "Swapiness" bar from boeffla config doesn't apply to the swap file?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
It does. Swappiness is a global system variable, it's up to you how you control it. Can be done through terminal, init.d script, boeffla app and probably million other ways.

Also, check it yourself. Change swappiness in boeffla app to some custom value, then read it with sysctl. Then close boeffla app, change with sysctl -w, and read in boeffla app.

Random update? That's cool. Looks like it was just a lot of app upgrades though.

Edit: damn though. This swap file is a very large performance boost. Specially at 100 swappiness.

Amazing thanks to [MENTION=3443334]Kryten2k35[/MENTION] for letting me learn through Ultima Rom and [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION] for clarifying everything I needed. Lol not even Zram was ever this good.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Wesley_NL:
i need a paid ver of titanium T.T
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
You don't. ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mika83AC:
For me 2.5.2 update seems to have some serious bugs:

- flashing with "last presets (expert)" get's stuck when clicking on "next/continue"

- flashing with "last presets" works, but:

--- after reboot there is no more xposed installed

--- The connection to my google account got lost

--- Google apps (e.g. play store) not working

--- .....

Anyone else with similar problems?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Wesley_NL:
it does so it says

that sytem app mover what do i have to do with it ? same as titanium backup ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
It can convert system app into user app and vice versa.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Wesley_NL:
and still pad carsh even if i made those modules system app, guess i revert this rom to 2.5.0, there is no other way, it crash and i want to play so unless archi slove it i wont update rom, i dont get it why pad crash and why the modules changed in the rom that make it crash, i didnt had troubles on 2.5.0
[Galaxy S III Android Development] vyp54:
Word. I would greenify the Greenify app if it were possible. It really shows on battery.

I get almost 5h which is same as stock almost each time. 4h with heavy usage.

If you ask how this is possible - under Settings -> Apps -> Running I have 4 processes including the settings that are open to view this. With settings closed I have 3. You can't expect 5h of screen time with Insta****, ****book, Keyboards that use 40MB of RAM and so on.

---------- Post added at 11:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:32 AM ----------

Use Whatsapp+. It has an option of starting stock camera on camera button.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SoulReaver75:
I just updated from 2.5.1 to 2.5.2.

it detected my settings and flashed new version without asking anything more.

everything looks ok, and now my theme got applied at startup too (cm theme chooser bug fixed).

xposed is still there, google connection too, and playstore works normally.

I just had to set back undervolting in boeffla config.

Really 0 problems here.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Orel1996:
I guess I'll deal with using the stock camera.

Regarding Greenify, I also use it a lot just leaving messaging apps such as whatsapp and Facebook messenger, regarding keyboards I use SwiftKey and not planning to change it lol, so you use another keyboard and it conserves battery?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Wesley_NL:
well i have +1 problem

i started at ver 2.5.0, ok horizon app crash when loading online video, then i updated to 2.5.1 pad and fantasica crash when starting up, and this havnt changed in 2.5.2 either
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mika83AC:
Hm.... okay, which exact way did you choose in the installer? perhaps i selected something wrong...

Restored by backup and will try again later.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] aliw32619:
Yeah 0 problems here too till now , maybe you did something wrong while installing or maybe you need to redownload the zip
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SoulReaver75:
I simply ticked "use previous settings", it told me that it found previous settings, asked me if i wanted to force update, i replied no, and it started installing new version.

Nothing else.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mika83AC:
Okay, that's the difference. I forced the update. I'll try without this and will report ;)

Update:

even with "force update" set to no it's not working for me. System messed up completely (same issues as described in my first report) after update finished .... perhaps i should really download the package again because there's something wrong with it ...

Update 2:

downloaded 2.5.2 again, but it's identical up to the last byte. So no download error which causes my issues.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Pablo.x:
I'm always having this fc when I try to go to App Ops by BetterBatteryStats

Any idea? Thanks all :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Full wipe. And don't use expert option, because it skips compatibility checks, hence it's named expert.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] netblaster:
I flashed the 2.5.2 over 2.5.1 and everything works fine.

Although, I noticed that the modem was not updated. I' m still on ND1.

Is there a flashable zip of the modem only or should I try flashing the whole rom?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Did you tick modem update in AROMA?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] netblaster:
Yes. During installation it was mentioned that the modem was updated but it didn't.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Strange, can't see any issue here.

if file_getprop("/tmp/aroma-data/archidroid.prop","updatemodem") == "1" then
ui_print("<b><#ff0000>root</#><#ecec36>@</#><#0cdfdf>ArchiDroid</#><#ecec36>:~</#><#c00cdf>#</#></b> Flashing Modem");
package_extract_file("modem.bin", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p7");
endif;
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mika83AC:
Did a full wipe before installing 2.5.1 (was coming from another rom). So can it really be required to make another full wipe when now upgrading to 2.5.2, especially if others can upgrade flawless? Remember my days on Temaseks ROM where i just made a full wipe when there were massive changes in code base or he started a new branch.

So don't get me wrong, i don't want to blame or criticize, just want to find out what could be the cause of my issues. And with this "small" changelog for 2.5.2, i'm just surprised that there should be a full wipe needed.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Requirement of full wipe depends, as you've already seen, on the user, not the ROM.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Pablo.x:
How can I acces to App Ops? [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION] -.-
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:

I have just posted a pic about FC that I get when I try to access to App Ops by BBS, maybe that could be a development bug...

[Galaxy S III Android Development] EP21:
Appart from fing my google backup up and going through the same old setting up process and deleting the always useless apps for me, flashed the ROM flawlessly. Though from what country you got NF1 is a bit of a mistery.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:

[MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION] very nice update, no problems with modem. MDNIe mode and scenario are changed to default, also battery icon in status bar is changed from vertical icon to circle icon, with battery % on (before it was off). I have selected presets installation. Only a question, could you explain me what is RunOnce Force Installation Mode? I have selected "yes", is it ok? Thank you and sorry if you have explained this yet. :)

Thanks all... and thanks archi.... honestly havent seen a more dedicated and awesome dev like you in my entire smartphone experience.... u made my stay with s3 worth enjoying...

... and hopefully see ya all in some other forum

Sorry for offtopic
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
It changed because you selected forced update ;).

In short, forced update enables ArchiDroid tasks which are done only after full wipe. This includes i.e. changing some settings like battery to circle.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lorygia74:
Great rom, I have update today at 2.5.2
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ste22032:
Clear as always ;) so are there any advantages of selecting force update if i'm only updating your rom, without full wipe? Thanks!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
No unless changelog states otherwise.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Of course it's possible, but this commit is not mature yet.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Wesley_NL:
so anyone can tell me why i cant play pad on last 2 version of archidroid? since even xposed dont work
[Galaxy S III Android Development] szotaa:
Whoa, it took you less than 5 seconds to answer my question :D If this commit get full mature and cm team will merge it, is it going to give us any major performance boost? Is it worth to be excited about it?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
It'll give us working GPU-accelerated 2D graphics, which are used in whole Android's UI ;).
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Pantherx12:
Latest update seems to alleviated all the problems I had.

No soft reboots thus far, so I guess I was having some kind of memory problem.

That being said I'm moving to a new phone on the 7th LG G3 . for big screen goodness!

Its been a joy using the various iterations of archidroid and just wanted to say thank you archi. Made my phone last a lot longer than I would of expected.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] abhibnl:
Let me tell you, it's the main thing to get excites about. Just wait for a working HWC or use CM on a working HWC device and you'll feel the difference. The smoothness and fluidity of the device will amaze you!

Well isn't that awesome? I do get a feeling they'll finally solve the mystery of broken HWC.

I want to disable menu and back button light. I have already tried turning then off in settings button menu but they I can't disable. It glow when I press them. Can anyone please help. I'm on v2.5.1
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Orel1996:
So I changed the governer to PegasusQ like on my previous ROM and it is better

WiFi was off where you see the straight line and some time after that, immediately after is with HSPA+

What's weird is there was significantly higher battery drain on HSPA+ then on wifi, either that or the phone starts lying to me when it gets to about 40-20 percent (night time so low brightness). The Internet was also pretty slow but I don't know if that has anything to do with the ROM / kernel

So as you can see in this screen shot

Maybe if I stayed in wifi all day would've been better :p
[Galaxy S III Android Development] plerohero:
Hi all,

I cleared settings and uninstalled spirit FM.

Then I reinstalled and disabled Boeffla. Radio works!

DAC Direct seems to create the problem.. When it's on, radio muted. I tried other audio method from spirit FM as well but to no avail.

Good luck Archi. Thanks a lot for your support.

Could someone test if his phone can detect cell id's:

either through Tasker or Cell id collector? :confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MBurns2:
hi [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION], i'm trying your rom and all seems perfect ! thanks for your hard work !

in aroma i chose optimized configuration (the first one), did you apply any undervolt in profile? thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
Nope, [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION] doesn't implement any uV/OC/etc. in his default profiles. Do it on your own risk, or find some ready-done profile(like temasek).

;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kofe:
Good luck, buddy!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MBurns2:
man, maybe i'm wrong but in stweaks i noticed that he has overclocked to 1.6 ghz and he overvolted some frequencies..correct me if i'm wrong :good: thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
Yeah, my mistake, forgive. But only in aspect of OC, undervolting afaik isn't supported by him.. Wait for his response, i'm curious. :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
It looks like in fact there's no such option implemented (yet?) in CM 10.2. The only thing would be to use only 2G connection, but that probably won't help you.

However it really depends on the quality of connection I'd say. And specific modem. For me newest XXEMG4 is far better than old ones, but to see a difference your GF should actually firstly flash fully-stock XXEMG4 (to convert EFS V1 to EFS V2) and then install AD with XXEMG4.

If you decide to do so make a backup of /efs just in case.

[MENTION=4238730]MBurns2[/MENTION]

All my profiles has "soft" OC up to 1.6 GHz. This is because I know that phone sometimes needs to finish tasks asap only for a short time and also on the long-run it didn't cause any issues to me, tested 100% cpu usage loop for 1-2 hours. It was a little hot but stable. Higher OCs caused some issues, that's why I don't suggest OC'ing more, or in the other words - you can but not for a long-run.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jackiestuxedo:
Hi!

Thanks you for this Rom, stable and fast. I just have one problem.

In fact, the cpu is overheating. The max before throttle is 80 degree.

Sometimes, it makes the phone reboot.

On Samsung rom, the max was 65, which was too low..

Then, if i take 15min of 1080p video, the phone is going too hot.

Is it possible to change it?

Best regards,

Jackiestuxedo

P.S : Sorry for my bad english
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MBurns2:
try to change cpu max value from 1600 to 1400
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jackiestuxedo:
This helps but it's not as flexible as it should.

I mean That for 5-15min task 1600 is need. so, if we can change the limit of throttling, it Will be the Best.

Just installed the latest 2.1.3 experimental build with full wipe, including formatting internal SD card. So fast and responsive, having been a flashaholic for many years, I'm very impressed :)

Well done!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Not that easy to do so. Kernel-sided feature. I suggest either uV, tuning governor (zzmoove + archi's ultra battery, works great but little laggy, yank's battery without laggs) or limiting max cpu frequency.
