I have an open question to all of you :)

Currently, Mackay ROM is based on CM10.2 with some additions. For my tablet, I have moved over to Carbon ROM as a basis, as it is also based on CM10.2, but with quite a few extras (like HALO, Dark UI, etc) from Slim/AOKP/PA. I would be interested in opinions in favour of ánd against using Carbon as a base for my ROM.

Mackay Kernel/Mackay Settings and other Mackay specific things would off course be moved over to the new ROM as well.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ficko_98:
Good idea! :good:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] okaryn:
I know, it's just for other people who will have the same issue ;) I had never saw this problem with other version, and apps worked fine, the only issu is the push notification. So, if this message can save time for other people... ;)

Excellent idea :good:

Kasper.I think you have enough knowledge to succeed in the election.Greeting from Spain.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hollandais:
For me it's OK.

My GTab 2, P5110 is also under JB 4.2.2 and I'll try Carbon Rom.

So you can switch for me.

I follow you, because most of your developpements are fine, without a lot of troubles.

The problems I had were mines.

Good idea.

If you think it doesn't lose the smoothness you have now in Mackay ROM. I must say I'm sorry not to have tried this before.

Are you still going to continue with AOKP as well?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derboedi:
So the AOSP keyboard from YourZGapps sadly doesn't work with this rom anymore since Android 4.3 but they do work with e.g. recent Helly Bean releases. Is there any way to fix this? Maybe some library files missing in Mackay rom?

It would be fantastic if I could use the smaller gapps with Mackay rom again. I really don't need the whole lot.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
I have no idea why it wouldn't work. Does it not even show up? Can you be more specific about what happens?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] thETImo:
What do you mean by 'smaller'? If you think you don't need all of them, you can always uninstall the extra ones with SystemAPK Manager-app... That's what I do after every flash. :)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derboedi:
I do a full wipe and format /system, rom and YourZGapps install fine and I reboot. When Google setup wizard starts it says "Android keyboard has stopped". And so I can't enter my details or wifi network login ...

YourZGapps only have the most necessary stuff included which I like (they're only 13,22 MB instead of 70 or 80 MB). That way it saves time because I don't have to install all the things I don't need. They don't get installed in the first place.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
Very odd. Just checked the script & contents, but it should not do anything about the default keyboard :S
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bunbury:
No matter what you use, I'm sure it will be always reliable... so... Go ahead !! ;)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rootax:
I think the strong point of your work is that it stay pretty close to the original CM, so it's pretty stable, fast, efficient.

If you add extra stuff to that, I don't know... I would say "keep it simple". On the other hand, I get that maybe you want to work with something else, so I'll respect your choice anyway :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cink40:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derboedi:
I would definately try a Carbon based Mackay rom but I can't tell in advance if I will like it. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ts1506:
I think that the best method would be to publish a test version based on Carbon ROM , and then add a poll.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hollandais:
Yesterday I've flashed my GTab P5110, with one of the latest nightly 4.2, the 20130821.

And the Focal apps works. Good pictures.

Maybe in one of the next Mackay?

The test folder was indeed for uploading a test-ROM based on CARBON. I had build it last night based on the positive response in this thread. I have been running today all day. But it feels to memory-hungry to me. I normally don't feel the phone slowing down in regular use with Mackay ROM 3.0.7, but I did feel that several times when running Mackay CARBON. So based on that, I have decided to stop this test flight early and stay with CM10.2 as base. New ROM will be build soon as compensation, with an updated kernel as well...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cink40:
Good call, thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] thETImo:
Mackay ROM is the smoothest OS I've used so far. Smoother than any AOKP or AOSP build. Or Carbon build for that matter.

So, the future might not be as smooth as the worst scenario...

Nightly 4.2 android? Focal?

Is it possible to extract it or port it to other 4.2 roms?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
Two TEST builds:

3.0.9

-codebase 25-aug-2013

-kernel 0.410 (regular approach with 2 recoveries, updated to latest linux kernel version, some small other updates)

3.1.0

-codebase 26-aug-2013

-kernel 0.500 (only CWM - latest CWM + TWRP do not fit together in one kernel. latest patches included that solve most issues with recovery)

In both builds, recovery selection has been removed from Mackay Settings.

Both are TEST builds, because I had to do many changes to merge the latest codebase (removal of powerwidget). And for 3.1.0/0.500 there is also a big change in kernel (recovery).

I have tested both myself for several hours and both worked fine.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rebel2k:
I will probably try that one! :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] idCyber:
First of all : Than you kasper_h for your dedication in keeping the i9000 updated . Great job ! You always bring us "the good stuff" :)

Mackay Test Build 3.1.0: Coming from 3.0.7, I went into CWM recovery, wiped cache and dalvik cache, flashed 3.1.0 and the latest gapps, rebooted, tested for 3 hours, surfing the web using wifi, playing games, watching videos on youtube, the rom is stable and smooth.

Notes:

Mackay Settings are missing from System settings -> More. But the Mackay Settings from app drawer app works. I went into recovery , tried to flash a zip I got (Status 7) on every single zip I've tried to flash. Rebooted into recovery, went and flashed 3.0.9 successfully this time. Note that the /sdcard , /emmc paths are changed to /storage/sdcard0, /storage/sdcard1 , I know they make no difference.

Mackay Test Build 3.0.9: Coming from 3.1.0, I've wiped cache, dalvik cache, flashed 3.0.9 and latest gapps, rebooted, tested for 1 hour, surfing the web using wifi, playing games, watching videos on youtube, the rom is stable and smooth. In recovery, the paths are named /sdcard , /external_sd.

Notes:

Mackay Settings are missing from System settings -> More. But the Mackay Settings app from app drawer works.

Last Thoughts: The roms are stable, smooth, but I can't live without power widgets in the notification drawer (I know you can add widgets on the homescreen but I like them in the notification drawer, don't have to switch from apps that are not fullscreen to the homescreen just to tick/untick a power widget) . I am now going back to 3.0.7 because of the power widgets, can't wait for an "official" release of the next version of the rom.

Dunno if this is an issues or I was just unfortunate but I had some issues going back to 3.0.7 .. Have no idea why this happened and I was stuck in a bootloop after I tried to flash the 3.0.7 rom over 3.0.9, gapps, wipe dache, wipe dalvik, reboot, bootloop, went into recovery again, mounted all partitions, flashed 3.0.7,gapps, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, flash Mackay Kernel 4.0.7 , reboot, bootloop. I've waited 15 minutes for the first boot = bootloop (sadly I forgot to make a backup before testing). Did full wipe and now I am restoring my apps.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hollandais:
I flashed the 3.0.9 yesterday evening, and it seems OK.

The power widget is not a problem because the same commands are or can be put in the quick settings panel.

Even for the Mackay settings, the app is still there in the app drawer and you can put a shortcut where you want.

Focal doesn't work already.

I'll stay on this Rom, dont try the 3.10, wait for more feedback about.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
Thanks for the clear feedback!

1. I have no idea why you would get the error 7 warning in CWM when on the 3.1.0 ROM (with 0.500 kernel). I did not try flashing anything on top of this ROM, will try that soon.

2. The more->Mackay settings is gone, due to some upstream issues with handling device settings apps in general. The idea is to totally get rid of them and move all the settings to the other parts of the settings app. I actually like that idea, because I think this "More..." looks bad. But we will see. I will keep the Mackay Settings app in the app drawer anyway.

3. I have also had bootloops when downgrading the ROM, not only on this ROM, but also on other devices. Sometimes there seem to be issues with app settings causing this. Until now, I have been able to still boot into the ROM after these issues by doing anoth dalvik cache wipe, but you seem to be unlucky. This is also one of the reasons I always make a nandroid when flashing a test-build: is the easiest way to get back to the original ROM.

4. The moving around of the mount point of internal/external SD has been done to solve some issues in the latest CWM version. So in kernel 0.500, which comes with the most recent & most patched CWM, this has been changed, whereas all 0.4xx kernels come with an older CWM with older mount points.

5. The power widget has been replaced by quick-settings buttons (which can be separately selected for the QS and notification panel), so I don't feel it as a missing issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derboedi:
I flashed 3.1.0 last night and everything works well. Actually I'm really impressed about how smooth and responsive this version is. I've flashed older versions of Mackay and before 3.1.0 I was using Slim Bean Beta 3 (also a 4.3 rom) but none of them where as smooth as this one. Great work, Kasper!

In my opinion it would be cool to have all Mackay Settings implemented within the system settings but the app is also ok. No big deal for me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
I totally agree that getting rid of Mackay Settings and implementing the options it gives throughout the regular settings menu would be great. That is actually also what i like about CM. The current implementation is however really simple in maintenance :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] idCyber:
Ty guys for pointing that you can add power widgets to quick settings panel . Didn't even checked it's setting until now. I'm gonna flash 3.1.0 and will stick it it with no regret, the rom worked great during my 3 hours of testing :)

[MENTION=3033992]kasper_h[/MENTION] If future kernels will include only CWM and no TWRP , I am fine with that as both of them do their jobs, only TWRP is more comfortable because of it's touch interface but CWM is fine too.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hollandais:
Finally flashed also the 3.1.0.

3.0.9 is OK for me.

There is a 3.1.1 version on the server ... what's that ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
DO NOT FLASH THE 3.1.1 if you already downloaded it!

The kernel included in it has a fault in CWM, so it boots, but does not allow you back into recovery. A new one is uploading now!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] idCyber:
You can get the info from :

1. Governors and Schedulers, Explained (Advantages and Disadvantages)

2. A bigger list of explained CPU Governors & A bigger list of expained I/O Schedulers.

I was testing SIO at that time when I had SIO in my signature. For me ROW (Read over Write) feels a bit faster than SIO (Simple I/O). My advice: test all of them, see how they work for you.

Hello,

I have a rather annoying problem. There is a conference I join which requires a code and password which are all numeric. Whenever I try to type in the code (ex. 3679524), everytime it says its incorrect and repeats a wrong number (ex. 337995244 or something like that. The numbers are either repeated or skipped ). This happens only when I try to call from my phone and works just fine when I try to do the same from any other phone.

This has happened in CM 10 / 10.1 / 10.2 / Mackay so I dont think its a problem with the ROM but would be great if I could get some pointers.

I have tried full wipe / dialing the number when in speaker mode / when connected to USB / with a headset connected etc. (just desperate!) but I cant seem to figure out a workaround for this.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Michel38280:
If it's as with a "normal" phone when you want to identify yourself with a PIN code you have to do it through "vocal frequency" (I don't know the right name) to input the code ... I don't know if it's possible with our phone ? Perhaps * + PIN code ended with # ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] wasimraja_1982:
Thanks for your reply. I do need to enter # after entering numbers. Are you asking me to try entering *+ and then the conference code followed by #? Not sure that would work but I could give it a try. Want to point out again that this works with every other phone I have used (S3 / Iphone) but doesnt work with my phone alone.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Michel38280:
No, *PIN Code# ... I never test conf call with my SGS :angel:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] wasimraja_1982:
Thanks for the response. I tried but it didnt work. I never face such issues while entering number and making calls though. Its just with this conference and ONLY on my phone.

Thanks again. Any other suggestions, anyone?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
Changelog of 3.1.2 - 28-aug-2013

-Updated CM10.2 codebase to 28-Aug

-New kernel 0.502 (comes with updated CWM only, no more TWRP), includes some other optimizations (see github)

-Latest CWM will backup by default in .tar.gz format. Smaller, but restoring is not supported on older CWM kernels. Default backup format can be chosen by the user in CWM.

-CMAccount added (beta)

Please read carefully, otherwise you will loose your data

When coming from Mackay ROM 3.0.0-3.0.5 or from a CM10.1 before 16 August, your device will be repartitioned!

The latest Mackay ROM will repartition your device, enlarging /system (+200MB) at the cost of /data (-200MB). To keep your data/apps/settings, follow the steps below:

CWM:

-make a nandroid backup

-flash ROM

-you will see an error

-flash ROM a second time, this time it will succeed

-flash gapps

-backup&restore -> advanced restore -> restore data of your latest backup

TWRP:

-make a backup

-flash ROM

-you will see an error

-flash ROM a second time, this time it will succeed

-flash gapps

-restore -> select latest backup -> only select data (I saw an error that /data couldn't be mounted after flashing ROM/gapps, so I rebooted TWRP in between the flash & restore steps, but I think this is not necessary - the message was still there but harmless)
