Hey Everyone!

So I've spent lots of time forking and settings up all of my repositories and a manifest so now I am able to make any changes I want and also just merge upstream whenever LS developers make changes. I only have one or to more repositories to add to the list so that others can build if they choose I'll let you know when that moment comes :)

I've officially decided to build weekly builds here now just so we can hopefully make improvements as we go along. I also have decided not to include gapps anymore because there are really quite a few gapps options out there for people to use and I don't want to limit anyone. Find which gapps work best for you and feel free to share you screenshots of your setup.

To those of you experimence FC issues, my guess is you need to fix your permissions. I haven't had any FC with AnTuTu or the Keyboard. You also have to realize that swype relies on gapps so if you flash a modded gapps you might have swype issues if the developer somehow screwed up during the packaging process.

Again let me know if you have any issues.

Here is Beta 2 (which I might just start labeling by date as i build every week or so) or just locate it via goomanager. I apologize for not adding a mirror but my upload is terrible from home so I'm just going to upload to goo until I make a "stable" release for everyone :)

Cheers!

Man, I just flashed the Beta 2 twice and flashed the normal 4.3 gapps, and when my phone boots up the gapps are not there.

I tried it twice just to make sure, and I flashed the gapps just like I always do. It was a clean install as well. I don't know what happened.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] hittzman:
Coming from Beta 1 I wiped dalvik and cache and flashed Beta 2 then Gapps. I booted up fine and all is running well, but there's no calendar app shown. Any idea why?

Edit> ok, okaaaay, I took the Calendar.apk from ver.2.9.1 and put it in ver.3.0 /system/apps. I now have the calendar app.

It s all clean flash from beginning with beta 1 and I tried clean flash with beta 2. So I dont have a clue to what broke the flash on the camera. Btw its stock camera where the flash is not working. I used the camera function through facebook and it works flawlessly. I dont have a clue.

True enough. It feels a little like pulling the lever on the slots every time I hit that test button, just keep rooting for that jackpot.

Incidentally the Beta 2 build just gave me a 13214 score, so I can now rest easy knowing that I am the arbitrary equal of my peers. :rolleyes:

Going Nightly!

Hey Everyone,

Well after I now have a working manifest with all of the LiquidSmooth stuff set to build and it only takes me like maybe 45 minutes to compile a new LS ROM I think I'm going to just start dating my builds so it will say the current LiquidSmooth version along with the date so if I make 12 version of 3.0 before LS updates to 3.1 you'll know which ones are more recent. :) Follow this folder for updates http://goo.im/devs/Cl3Kener/LiquidSmooth

I build another ROM today to test all of the repos i've forked in preparation for this. Before I let you losse on this build, I want to make a few things clear that apparently some people aren't understanding.

1) LiquidSmooth does not maintain a calendar app nor do they waste time compiling one every build. They assume that you will go to the play store and download the google calendar app. I think you'll find that it has more appealing colors and works just dandy (plus it has blue and white appearance to go along with the current themed icons I have)

2) LiquidSmooth is more sophisticated than most other ROMs in that it overrides the initial gapps welcome screen. This means that if you flash gapps you will not see the welcome screen. I presonally enjoy this feature because it gives my build a chance to settle for a second before I sign into google. What you have to do is go to the play store and sign in from there. In other words, just because you don't see the initial gapps welcome screen doesn't mean that your gapps aren't installed. As long as you flash gapps after you flash the ROM they will be there for you when you need them.

3) I haven't really included many apps. I'm trying to keep these builds down to 120 MB. Maybe for the release I'm working towards I'll add a few more along with themed gapps etc. For now though I want you to be able to customize this thing the way you want without having to uninstall a bunch of stuff.

Hope you enjoy having more consistent updates! :D

Cheers!

Thanks Jeremyo, I remember reading that somewhere in a post by Cl3Kener but forgot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jeremyo83:
Dirty flashed the 9/9 build last night. [MENTION=5105835]Cl3Kener[/MENTION], I know you mentioned the welcome screen feature turned off, but I couldn't launch the play store to sign in, or add a Google account in the settings menu (same happened with the beta 2 build). Not sure if I didn't quite catch point #2 from your instruction post.

Ended up reflashing gapps, which then let me add g accounts again, but after experiencing a few RRs I decided to do a clean wipe anyways. No problem since, and as always, this thing flies. Nice to see slider shortcuts added as well.

dowbload GAPPS 4.3?

Hey guys,

I'm wanting to flash the latest Black Liquid 3 but I'm not sure where I can download the proper GAPPs version for Android 4.3.

Sorry for my ignorance guys, I already took a look through these forums but could not find a link.

Thanks

Regards

UPDATE:

I just found the GAPPS 4.3 for CM 10.2. Will that work as well?

Yeah, make sure you get the one with the 08/13 date.

I've been flashing slim gapps http://slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/dlsearch/viewcategory/908-addons4-3/downloads and all is well.

---------- Post added at 09:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:41 AM ----------

Rom's running great.

I had been running into the random bootloop, and sat down yesterday to try and isolate.

I started with a clean install.

Setup my primary google account.

Re-installed all apps from the play store.

Restored data for my apps using TiBu.

So far, all is good.

Restored my accounts using TiBu.

BAM.. bootloop

Not sure why, but figured I'd share.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Cl3Kener:
Hey Everyone

After a nice debugging session with [MENTION=2993366]ThdDude[/MENTION] last night we determined that there must have been some sort of data policy change in the kernel upgrade to 3.0.95. If you have been dirty flashing you may notice that the kernel no longer sleeps. After trying lots of things we've determined that a clean install is the ONLY way to fix this "no sleep" issue. If you experience sleep issues please make sure to clean install. [MENTION=930086]MovieGene[/MENTION] my guess is the programs you restored broke the new kernel policy which caused the reboot.

On that same note, I think people are confused still about the install process. I would add gapps but it would take me twice as long to upload updates. LiquidSmooth has a full system wipe every install. This means you need to flash ROM & GAPPS whether it is a clean flash or a dirty flash. This allows more flexibility and insures that dirty flashers will still be able to boot consistenly. So if you are a dirty flasher just be aware that you will need to flash both everytime. Sorry for the inconvienience to some of your dirty flashers but I currently think they have a good policy. if it bugs me enough I'll go and change it here in the future.

LiquidSmooth pumped out 73 commits last night (most of which were just to either restore or bug fix things) including upgrade to HALO 2.0, the animations they had back in 2.91, and Listview Animations. Looks like Liquid is really bringing it to the table. I'm not sure if I like the current window animations and I've actually heard lots of complaints in the past so I may revert the Nexus 7 (animations from the 2.91) build just because with the new animation speeds it almost makes me dizzy.... Let me know if you agree and I'll revert them for tomorrow :).

Cheers!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jiggs82:
I personally dont like the nexus 7 animations because they sure does make m dizzy and give me a headache so stock jelly bean animation would be fine with me if thats possible:good: no must just a suggestion;) thanks again for your very hard work and dedication
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jeremyo83:
Suspected, but thanks for clarifying. Good to know it's not something I'm doing.

I haven't had any problem with the animations so far in the Liquid 3 builds. Everything seems really snappy, and nothing really bothers me about the current window animations. That being said, I didn't have any complaints about the 2.91 animations either, so I don't know how much this actually helps you after all. :p

Keep up the great work!

SuperSU, gapps, phone, .....

A wipe cache/dalvik and fix permissions solved most of them, however I couldn't get SuperSU to cooperate.

I just went back to last nite's update (09/09) and everything is fine.

Tried the same, still getting a System UI crash when launching HALO.

[MENTION=5105835]Cl3Kener[/MENTION], don't know if this helps you or not, but I tried using Catlog to document it, see attached. First time trying to logcat, and I don't think it's formatted in any real way, so apologies in advance if it's not actually helpful.

edit: from other posts, looks like it's probably a wider issue than just halo anyway
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] soneracar:
No matter what I do it will install fine, boot fine, and have no errors. When I go to reboot, it won't boot. I get the samsung logo pop up and it won't go past that. I tried both 9/9 and today's rom and I did it from complete scratch.

Any Advice?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jeremyo83:
Have you tried any other 4.3 roms yet? There was a formatting issue using older recovery versions for 4.3 roms. Try updating your recovery to the latest TWRP or CWM.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] soneracar:
Would you be able to provide the link. I have searched for the updated version but can't seem to find the version for our tmobile s2.

And no, this is my first 4.3 rom
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jeremyo83:
Easiest way is to install GooManager from the Play store, hit the settings button (the actual settings capacative button on the phone) and hit "Install OpenRecoveryScript". It will ask if you want to download and write a recovery image, select yes. Most recent version of TWRP should be 2.6.1 I think. Confirm the download and let it go through the process of installing. Next boot into recovery you should see the updated version.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] soneracar:
I got the newest one installed. Wiped everything and still, no go. :( First boot works fantastic, any boot after that not so much. :confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jeremyo83:
Odd. The only other thing I can think of is the formatting fix that was going around before TWRP was updated for 4.3 roms. In recovery (if you're using TWRP), go to settings and check the box that says "Use rm -rf instead of formatting". Then wipe and try again.

If this doesn't work, I'm out of ideas. Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] soneracar:
Well, took out the sdcard and it worked. I am going to try your idea next!

Thanks for your help, I think you're right about the formatting.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] MovieGene:
Nothing to see here, please step away
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Koragg618:
Yeah I'm up for the stock animations as well, just because I don't like the 2.91 which was keeping me off Liquid :/

whats the huge difference of jumping from BLACKLIQUIDv2.91 to the 4.3 .. is it just like some sort bragging rights or it worth the jump? .. I'm still on the BLACKLIQUIDv2.91 and its been working amazingly for the past month almost.

Is it really worth it to jump to 4.3
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jeremyo83:
I would say there is a noticeable performance improvement on just about all of the 4.3 roms I've tried (liquid 3, hellybean, beanstalk, PAC) over any 4.2 rom, LS 2.91 included.

4.3 looks nearly identical, but runs so much smoother. IMO absolutely worth the jump. As much as I loved 2.91, I'd almost hate to go back to it.

I would throw one caveat out for consideration - 4.3 is still new, most roms very much still under development, but getting more stable. Some may prefer to wait until some more bugs are ironed out.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] hittzman:
Im getting an intermittent message. Ive cleared dalvik, cache, and fixed permissions but it still persists. Any suggestions people?

Slim gapps issue

I tried flashing the Slim gapps that you mentioned (Slim_AIO_gapps.4.3.build.beta.5.zip) but there seems to be an issue.

Android 4.3 (Black-Liquid-v3.0-20130910-Cl3Kener-hercules.zip)

Recovery TWRP 2.6.1.0

The installation only lasts for about 3 - 4 seconds which I knew something was up right then and there. No errors were thrown and it displayed that the installation of Slim gapps was a success.

I copied the output to the "recovery.log" file and this what I got:

So it looks like there is an error when the extracted files are being "touched".

Has any buddy else run into this issue with a similar setup and the slim gapps?

Thanks guys,

I did the same thing but still saw the same issue. Once a while, an app may just FC all of a sudden unexpectedly. And HALO didn't work for me - SystemUI will FC as soon as I enable HALO regardless of HALO settings.

Issues im having with build 4.3

1. I was taking a picture with low battery and the phone shut off, i figured it was a simple reboot until it couldn't boot back up. I tried everything but the only thing that would work was to do a factory reset and clear the cache.

2. enable keys notifications (use touch keys like an led notification)

I have it checked but it just wont use my touch keys to show notifications, hopefully its an error on my end.

I was Also wondering if there was an option to have the screen turn on when there is an incoming notification.

Anyone know if im doing something wrong or if im just using the wrong settings? Besides the following issues i have to say black liquid 4.3 is 100% MORE STABLE and has way less bugs then the official liquid smooth r9 for t989.
