[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Born2Model3D:
I doubt that there are no quality controls, infact you can contact a Chinese company (if you can find their customer support number or mail) and ask them to personally test a device before sending it to you and they will do so. Pipo has become a premium brand now and so has THL and I doubt they will entertain a single customer like that now.

I am an Indian and the same brainwashed mentality is the reason why the IT backbone of the world (India) can't manufacture smartphones and tablets. Even laptop brands like Samsung uses Wipro to provide service throughout India and yet Wipro's laptops that are cheaper then samsung and made in India are considered to be bad products!!!

I being cheap, am always searching for the best bang for the buck device that I can get to toy with without worrying about the impact on my wallet. China provides those and even though I agree that I would have chosen Nexus 7 over Pipo myself if they both were of the same value, but in India the Nexus 7 is sold for ~330$ and the Pipo M7 pro/ M8HD/ M9 Pro are all sold for ~230$ - 250$ including expedited shipping.

I have had a pretty bad experience with Dell and Asus/Google and have never had a bad experience with any "cheap" product. My Dell Studio 1555 laptop died a month after warranty and Dell was unable to repair it even for a fee. They said the manufacturing of the product had stopped and the 3 motherboards and 2 displays that they had tried to repair my laptop with were the last piece of hardware (which were all DOA except for one Samsung display panel) they had and so they refunded me.

Asus/Google's Nexus 7 2012 version was the worst experience ever with the screen coming of from one side after a few weeks of usage and even after a few returns I still ended up with the same issue and also some random phantom touches. Once I opened the N7 to see if I can tape/glue or do something about the screen I found the whole left side had no screws and that there were finger prints all over the device. It looked like a refurbished model (more like used). I added the screws and the screen was fixed but I think they had left the screws out for reason as the battery started heating up and I just decided to sell the damn thing at 1/3rd the price after just 2 months. The tablet was good and a cheap tablet from a big brand is always a great deal but sometimes the universe just decides to play a bad joke on you, I guess.

Just so you know, I am currently using a Korean 2560 x 1440p PLS monitor that's almost a year old, it cost me 1/5th of what a similar monitor from dell or apple would cost. I have used a Pipo M9 Pro for about a months which I later gave to my cousin as I was gifted a Sony Xperia Z. I am waiting for the Nexus 10 but I am afraid it will be sold for around 500 to 600$ in India and so I am looking at buying a high res tablet again.

Sorry about that, I sometimes end up rambling a lot :)

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] KenHua:
Actually I had the same problem. TWRP 2.6.1.0 was unable to mount system partition after the failed install. Had to Odin to refresh TWRP in order to boot to recovery. Tried it again with TWRP 2.5.0.2. but no luck. Back to my Barebone MGA
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] 2Tone5:
Interesting , no problems here on 2.5.0.2 ... must be a bad download. ..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] KenHua:
Never had such a bad experience

Owing to your confidence I re-downloaded from Mirror 1 (earlier from Mirror 6) and tried installing it again. It's really really bad. The screen turned brighter and brighter after about 10 seconds and then became highly saturated, and continued to glow to a point that looks that the phone was going to explode. I quickly held on to Power Button hoping that the phone would go off before some permanent damage was done. Luckily it responded and stopped it in time. I refreshed via odin back to my old MGA. Thanks for your effort but you scared me. Bye Bye !

Edit: May be there is something wrong with my phone. I'm not blaming anyone. Just sharing experience. I may try again from scratch when I have the time. Thanks...

Edit2: I believe it was my TWRP that was corrupted, Sorry for the false alarm
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] 2Tone5:

Don't worry v4 was designed specifically for the I9505. . You shouldnt have any issues with the latest version.... its uploading now so just back often....
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] archiesnet:
I've installed it twice as regular Rom should be installed using CWM. I was hoping to use an Odex Rom coming form Omega Rom to see the difference. Uhm. very tricky, don't know what's wrong. - i9505
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] 2Tone5:
Version 3 and onward is Deodexed because everyone wanted it... its more themeable and the framwork needs to be Deodexed in order for 3mint to work.. im personally a fan of odex cuz I dont use any of the fancy stuff ... if you want odex you can run a few codes in a terminal command on your phone. ...

Could be a bad download. . Or your cwm is corrupt. .. v4 should be up in an hour or 2
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] 2Tone5:
V4 will be accessible in a few minutes

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] 2Tone5:
Awesome enjoy... im working on v5 which is even more slim and slightly modified. .. let me know if theres something I should add :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] destynova1988:
The stock apps i use are SPlanner, Weather, Assistive Light and Music (Stock player). The only this I miss is the player, but I can search the apk somewhere in the forum.

I don't have any idea what this Joyn is, so as a suggestion, you could remove it and Software Update too as this is a custom ROM and this may never work.

As I said those are only a suggestion. This is your ROM and do whatever you want :)

Can't wait for V5!!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] 2Tone5:
Haha I've already removed joyn and system update and some other stuff in v5 and if you want to go to the addons section you csn get the audio video pack and push the music player to system/app and your all set!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] destynova1988:
Man, you are fast! I mislooked the addons section. I'm downloading it right now. (Now that I have noticed the clock in the addons section I will download it too, because this bad boy wakes me up every f*ckn day hahah).

Thanks again!

Any help you need, feel free to PM me.

---------- Post added at 02:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:50 AM ----------

Just a quick follow up: The clock app on addons section is broken. Don't need to bother on fixing it as I may be the only one trying to use it. I'll download some good alarm app.

FLight5I9505 Update

2Tone5, it looks like the content of the "FLight5I9505 Update" zip file is a kernel. If i'm planning to use some other kernel other than ktoonz , can you confirm that there's nothing else in this zip file that i would require ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] 2Tone5:
Yup your good if your gonna flash your own kernel... all the zip contains is the original modules and boot img for i9505 users that dont want a custom kernel
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] currway:

just reporting that i flashed the 3minit mod ( for MH1 ) , phone managed to start up but pull down notification, UI modules keep repeatedly crashing.

You cant flash the latest 3minit... its not compatible with the latest firmware yet... use 2.8

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Me Gusta:
I can't get the stock music app from TW to work :( can someone please help me?

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] stevehkim:
I had the same issue. Just reflash the rom without wiping. And re-install the apk.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Me Gusta:
Didn't work :'( does someone else have a solution?

Me Gusta!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] currway:
I've figured this out... Due to the slimness of this ROM, the DroidSansFallback.ttf font file was not included. All I had to do is nick this file from some other ROM which had Chinese language display support, and paste the file into the font folder of this ROM. Reboot and that's it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] 2Tone5:
I suppose I could at it in the new version as its not that big of a file :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] destynova1988:
Hello 2Tone5!

I just noticed that the function to turn on the torchlight with the vol+ buttom while screen is off is not working.

The functionality is under Display>Torchlight menu.

I have no idea which app is responsible for this so I would try fixing it myself. Is there any chance you could fix this in the next update?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] 2Tone5:
Yea I'll check it out. .. I don't see the torch menu in display though. . All I see is touch light duration
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] destynova1988:
OMG, I'm so dumb. I realized that this is a domination funcionality. Despite of this, it works in other roms, because I used this functionality a lot.

I still think that this is related to something missing in the system. Could you still please look into it?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] alan9820:
Hi all,

I am a newbie, thanks for the this great ROM!

I faced 2 questions.

1. how can I install those Gapps likes Stock email, voice recorder after downloaded to my phone? I tried to simply moved in to system/apps and also changed permission, still can't get it work.

2. how can i get a CRT animation off effect? or which MOD i could download? there are several version with different name that i scare to try...

Thanks mate~!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] 2Tone5:
You just need to add the apks back in the zip and re flash

So far its really good but iv found a few things that's not right

kies via wi-fi crashes the phone.

battery drains quite fast even when phone is in sleep no wifi or data on

just a first impression and ile test more.

Not having that stupid camera shutter sound is brilliant :)

[Nexus 4 Android Development] Tanmaynarang:
Hi there!

This is the first ROM I've ever made, so bear with me :P

This is SwagDroid. This ROM is made to completely redefine Android and the way we use it!

It comes with some basic apps, and some bare-bones GApps.

By the way, the name is completely ironic, I just wanted a funny name xD

SwagDroid is based on Paranoid Android 3.99 and is based on JSS (AOSP) And JWR66Y (Stock) in order to stop lag spikes.

I didn't package it with Franco Kernel because I wasn't sure if everyone likes it, but I'd HIGHLY recommend it. It increases battery life, changes the screen, and makes the keyboard vibrations longer (seems stupid but it's awesome xD (Oh, and I know it's just a setting.)).

Anyways, enough chit-chat. Let's get to links.

http://android.tanmayn.com/

Changelog:

Build 4.

Added boot animation

Changed default background

Re-themed a couple things :D

Build 5.

Playing around with things and trying to make boot animation work!

Thanks!

so the difference between this and pa is just apps??
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Tanmaynarang:
At the moment, kinda x.x;

I'm planning on doing custom wallpapers and a lot of other stuff, but it also has ViperSound Mod Included

EDIT: Oh, and it comes with minimal GApps, it's not really a feature, just throwing it out there x.x;
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Rohit02:
As others might have the same question as me,

What is the version?? JSS? JWR?? JSQ??? I know PA 3.99 is based on JSS and Y but still want to get clarified.:)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Tanmaynarang:
Yeah haha it's JSS and JWR66Y xD

Sorry about that, I'll add it to the OP
[Nexus 4 Android Development] chiwou:
Would you consider adding features to your Rom nothing much, just some convenient stuff?

And yeah compile it with franco, always flash the kernel after every update ;) or maybe the franco mod, got a little more battery with the mod

I tried to install something with Odin 3.07 and then all of the sudden my phone said "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again". I connected it to Kies and it wouldn't connect. I tried to use the emergency firmware upgrade and it wouldn't connect. I also tried Firmware Upgrade and Initialization and when i put in SGH-T595V it says "please check the model name and enter it". I can't go into recovery mode or download mode. When i restart this, I just get the same message. Is there anyway I can fix this?
