[Micromax A110] Parthalucky:
Hello Mr.Suhas,

Thanks for ur awesome rom. I have been with ur rom from V1 to V13 and want to express my feelings not just by hitting thanks button

Review:

We all know Suvi Rom.We all have Experienced it once.But have we got its best taste?

After a day of use I bring to u the detailed Suvi Rom V13 Rhea in 2 parts:Detailed Decription and Quick Format(Pros,Cons,Advantages over other roms,Disadvantages over other roms,Suggestions for next version)

Part 1

Looks and Quality:

Boot Logo:

Its the default white canvas sketched image.The jellybean default. Its common in every rom which features JB

Bootanimation:

As the rom is based on aroma installer, it features 2 boot animations.

1st the Suvi default S4 bootanimation

2nd is the 4.3 google boot animation

I advise everyone for the time being yo stick to S4 bootanimation becoz the 4.3 animation is scaled up and looks pretty bad

Lockscreen:

As u power ur device, some of u who have used Samsung phones like Note2 and S3 in past will see the similar interface.

The 1st thing that comes to our mind is the Ripple Lock Screen.Its the S3 or Note 2 ripple lock screen. It has the shortcuts at the below like phone,camera,etc to serve a quick purpose of opening those apps from lockscreen itself

Phone Interface:

As we go inside, we see the multi DPI Samsung S4 launcher. Its fast, its smooth and looks good on device at the startup.

Then we see the S4 Accuweather widget. Now u all can guess that the rom has the Samsung user interface by default

Status Bar:

As the rom features Aroma Installer, u have 3 options of Status Bar and its toggles.

The 1st option is 4.2 status bar with green note2 like toggles and a brightness slider

The 2nd option is Just the green toggles with clear memory

The 3rd option is Lidroid Toggles with Green Themes(I stick with this though)

For the time being choose 1st or 2nd option as lidroid toggles has some missing features such as changing the default sim in dialer or message app which leaves me disappointed.

The other problem is if u switch on the mobile data, by default the 1st sim is used and u wont get option like before.The temporary solution for this is to go to sim management and choose the default sim for mobile data

The battery has been changed to Samsung Green like but i dislike it, the previous blue one was really really cool

Task Manager:

The task manager is samsung like but is really buggy.

It doesnt show all the active apps and cannot clear or stop them.

But as i see it, not many of us use task manager to clear apps, so its not a real use app but like a cool Samsung based task manager

Recent Apps:

It is by default the JB like but if u have chosen the 4.2 status bar option then it will be HTC like

Settings:

It looks cool and the icons has been changed as well

If u chose the Lidroid Toggles option in status bar it will have Suvi Heart Arrangement option in the 1st. There are other features too but explore that urself.

The only problem here is that the data usage graph is holo or so as to say it doesnt show the graph

Dialer:

It is the themed Samsung Dialer Interface.

It looks grt and is better than the stock one for JB

U also get the swipe to receive calls like S4 and Note2 which is better than the stock one too

CONCLUSION-1:

The rom has really been famous for its looks and quality.It feels really calm when using the device.

Everyone using the V13 will feel as if the phone has been reconstructed by Samsung

Performance:

I must tell everyone that this is tested under using Seeder 2.0 in aggressive profile

Boot Speed:

The 1st time the device boots is more becoz the rom is deodexed but after that the boot times are significantly less ie 10-15 secs

Ram Management:

I have installed nearly 150 apps and 8-9 widgets of contact,flipborad,google chrome bookmarks, weather widgets,etc and the device still holds its own by giving me 120-140 ram when i kill apps using Gemini Task Killer

Smoothness:

The device is very smooth and by that i mean really really smooth.

The S4 Touchwiz Launcher is really a ram eater and laggy sometimes so i have removed it and made Nova Prime as deafult launcher

Games:

High end games have no lags at all.

The games i have tested are:

Asphalt 7:Heat

Temple Run

Temple Run 2

Temple Run:Brave

Temple Run:eek:z

GTA Vice City

NFS Most Wanted

Frontline Commando

Frontline Commando:D-DAY

The Amazing Spider Man

I am a heavy gamer after all and still like the phone.

No heating issue is present anymore

Navigation System:

The GPS still doesnt fix for me.It may be just my problem but still it doesnt get fix

Sound & Media:

The sound is really high by default.

The stock music player is not that grt and u can remove it and install Walkmann

The Video Player is not that grt and u can install MX Player from market freely

The only problem in this category remains as the default ringtones and notifications are very small.

As a rom of 258 MB, this must not be the case

Internet:

The internet is really fast in 2G as well as 3G.

Unlike others i had no problem in speeds and other disconnecting problems.

But the problem here is that the Tethering is not working but as we see it it will be corrected in next update

USB OTG:

Unlike the previous versions of Suvi Rom, the V13 brings USB OTG mount by default and does not require external apps

I have used a fat32 formatted USB and it really works

Battery Backup:

I will update this day after tomorrow becoz 38% of battery still in my phone after 4-5hrs of gaming

CONCLUSION-2:

By performance it is the best suited rom till date i have used. Many may not agree with me but i challenge them to use this V13 of this rom for a day, if they r still not satisfied then as their reward i will remove this thread. So shall we test?

Part 2

Pros:

Grt Lockscreen(Samsung Like)

Good S4 Animation

Aroma Installer

Ad-Free Option

Grt Status Bar and toggles(Samsung Like)

Grt Samsung JB dialer with swipe to answer or reject

Grt UI

Very Smooth

Modded Settings

High Sound

Good Camera option in aroma

DPI Option in aroma

Good UI

Battery Backup is good(Still this will be updated day after tomorrow with accurate readings)

Cons:

No OTA update included

Not many options in Aroma Installer(Just 4 or 5)

Buggy Wifi Tethering

Faulty Data Usage Menu

Suggestions for Nxt Version:

i)Include OTA

ii)Add new features like simplistic framework, og battery mod, gravity box, 3 mint frameworks or xthemes,4.2 binaries)

iii)Beats audio driver and Walkmann are better than stock music player

iv)Launcher really lags sometimes and it would be better if u could provide us with option like Nova in aroma itself.

That way people like me who dont love tw can save some ram.

As u know tw is really heavy on ram though and after restarting still takes more ram.

Xperia Launcher can be provided as other option too

v)Bootanimation is grt but the samsung galaxy S4 words below the animating S picture doesnt looks good.Micromax Canvas2 in its place would be cool and genuine.

The other thing is the dashes above the IV shines periodically making it look like a glitch.

vi)Google 4.3 bootanimation is scaled up and doesnt look good. Pls provide the stock 4.3 bootanimation ending with ur S as Suvi Rom Signature

vii)The current battery icon is really bad. Pls change it and restore the Quasar icon

viii)Pls give us a lite version of ur rom if u dont want to include mods like above said in 2nd point of suggestions and include Nova Launcher

ix)The media files have become old. Pls provide new ones from other devices becoz we can afford some more MB for downloading for new media files

x)Sony Mobile Bravia Engine3 and ClearAudio+ would have been good choices

FINAL CONCLUSION:

The rom is very stable and can be said to be a permanent rom for MMX A110, and for the tethering problem, it will be corrected in the next update, wont u Mr.Suhas?

Its Samsung Styled and is constantly improved(What more do u even want anyway???)

The rom has come a long way since V1 and is constantly updated in every month to remove the bugs.The Rom Maker Mr.Suhas has really made the rom from scratch and really earns my respect(urs too) for creating a wonderful rom. Hope U Like It in ur device(Which u will....)

and the most important question:

WHO AM I?

I am just a boy with ideas like u who is reading this.

The only diffrence is i am a really lot and lot and lot and lot of experience in roms.

How u ask?

My experience in flashing:

MMX- A50(my 1st),A52,A54,A56,A75,A87,A90s,A100,A110(my 2nd),A110q,A116.(thats just in mmx)

Karbonn - A1+,A21,S5(not much in this group)

Sony-any Xperia line smartphone u can find in the market(done them all,well nearly all but u understand the mangnitude right?)

Samsung-Nearly every smartphone in its galaxy line.

HTC-None(really not even 1)

and how to believe me?

I am just a student in 12th CBSE and nearly 10000 students study in my school and most of them possess samsung and sony phones. So after i modded my a50 with transparent notification bar and swipe to remove notification. Everyone started wondering how then i explained about roooting and flashing and i nearly rooted everyones handset and flashed them. So yeah now u believe why i wrote a lot and lot and lot of experience but i am new to xda

Dont Forget to hit thanks not to me but to Mr.Suhas in his Suvi Rom page.

Head over now and start downloading and explore the android dev in u alongside MMX A110 with Suvi Rom V13-Rhea in it

Why u ask and say u r fine with ur current rom?

The reason is rom is the best MMX A110 can get for the date and will be updated in the future to remove bugs(if there are any) and brings plethoria of features in it and will bring even more in the future.

For those who dont feel good after tasting the V13 in their MMX A110, i will remove the thread for them as a reward
