Here's a few but important features :

1) Big picture in Contacts (Regius ROM)

2) "Export to SD" option in Contacts backup full res images in vcf (Regius ROM)

3) Call goes in Notification bar (option to switch off) after picking up through pop up incoming call screen.

4) Working Tap-to-top and Blocking mode.

5) Privacy guard of CM (Open Source). Possible ?

I have few others too but later ;)

Downloading.....

Hi,

What's mod ?

What's Unicon module ?

Thanks :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] batlyn:
[MENTION=4546136]silentvisitor[/MENTION] unicon module is an app/mode use to change icons on touchwiz launcher....
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] silentvisitor:
Xposed module ?

Did you like my ideas btw ;)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] batlyn:
yes thats it...

about your ideas yes I like it too...I want to add one more...color setting for notification item on drop down panel....
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] silentvisitor:
Btw, can it be flashed like normal ROMs or only through ROM Customizer ?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] batlyn:
Sometimes rom customizer is not stable....I used twrp to flash alliance rom...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Weetbix:
* We have the "let the system choose a theme colour randomly for the day" option ... is it possible to have an option to change the background of the status bar appropriately somehow so that no matter what colour the theme has we can always see things in the status bar without holding the phone real close and squinting?

* When connected to WiFi, can the dropdown panel have the WiFi network name alongside (or instead of) the carrier name? I kinda miss this from when I used Slim ICS/Bean on my I9000

I had some others in mind, but dang it all I went and forgot them...

Nice idea, the number of times I am on a call and go to check something....
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] iwarind:
+1 for incoming call notification pop up..

- dark contacts app in Alliance theme.. It's presently light colored and looks awkward..

- aosp style 'tiled toggles' if possible..
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Lord2802:
Yo! I'm gonna try and flash this rom when my download finishes. I have a few questions though. Right now i'm using ProBam 4.4 with new bootloader. I'm also using Philz touch recovery v6. I'm guessing full wipe is needed, but my question is can i falsh this rom via philz 6 or maybe philz 5? I've read the first post and i don't like it that i have to flash it with an app :P. And also i would like some info on your battery if it's not too much to ask. Thank you ^^

edit:

I flashed it anf so far so good :) i've encountered a few crashes but besides that all seems to be working fine even with 240 dpi ^^
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Weetbix:
Welcome :)

The advantage to flashing via rom customiser instead of via recovery is simply that via RC you can choose what gets installed.... Via recovery you don't get a choice and everything gets installed.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Lord2802:
Is there a way to remove this "eye" from the statusbar? Disabling reading mode didn't work..

"The music is different here."
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] steff195:
Go to: Settings/Custom Settings/Statusbar and Toggles/Statusbar Options/Hide SmartStay Icon :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Lord2802:
Hey, i don't think i have that option :/

But it doesn't matter, dont wanna bother you anymore, and spam this thread with such noobish questions ^^

"The music is different here."
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] steff195:
If you don't have it then you must have not installed the modpacks from OTA. Then retry what I wrote in my previous post. ;)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] batlyn:
suggestion. ...option to hide statusbar on lockscreeen, option/color setting for lockscreeen date & clock and option color setting for swipe to unlock. ...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Weetbix:
Another small suggestion .... the ability to not get that "ENable/Disable Flight Mode" popup when toggling flight mode.

Recently SystemUI started dying on me when holding down the home button to get the recents list. Right at when the list would normally show up I instead get a popup saying "Unfortunately, System UI has stopped". I tried clearing the cache of SystemUI, I also tried clearing the dalvik cache for kicks. No joy - same result. Funny thing is - it only happens with the phone in portrait mode, landscape works fine. Any ideas?

I grabbed a logcat - it can be found here
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] txr33:
Try it without xposed cause that is in the log with the error and is common for some xposed modules to cause issues
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Weetbix:
The only Xposed change I've had recently was the Wanam Xposed module updating. I disabled that, rebooted, same result. Reset dpi to 320, disabled App Settings, rebooted, same result. Uninstalled Xposed, rebooted, same result.

The logcat now looks the same - just without the Xposed line :(
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] klect:
Went back to complete stock, then flashed everything as clean as possible. no problems since! The only stuff I restored were a few apps via titanium, google took care of the rest :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Rickav:
Hey there, I was wondering if you'll be releasing a new version of Alliance any time soon (within 3 weeks-ish)? Don't worry, I'm not getting impatient of the one that's already out. In fact, I don't even have it yet. I ask because:

1. [MENTION=3065070]Goldie[/MENTION] recently asked if there are any features in general we would like to see added to Alliance just a couple of weeks ago.

2. I have a metered internet connection. ie. 1.4GB is kind of a big deal to me. Hence, once I get the rom, I'll be unlikely to shift away from it for at least a few months or so (make that a few years since its Alliance).

So, it'd be great to know that the V5.2 that I'm downloading now will be the latest for, at least, this coming month. Cheers everyone.

PS. While still on the topic of features to be added, I further the no statusbar on lockscreen idea. Furthermore, here's more of a question than a request, does anyone know of a lockscreen which: normally displays a customisable widget, can be slid one way to open camera app & can be slid the other way to unlock by 4-digit pin or pattern OR normally displays a customisable widget, has a central button which can be slid in a various directions to open various apps and unlock by 4-digit pin or pattern. Any help here, fellas?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] batlyn:
[MENTION=5125844]Rickav[/MENTION] v5.2 has Aosp lockscreeen
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Rickav:
Alrighty... So having flashed V5.2 and booted, I have the stock 4.3 firmware Note II (plus some nifty pen features from the N3 amongst others). So I definitely do not have the AOSP lockscreen yet.

But, I'm looking at the Alliance ROM OTA and I see the following:

- V5.2 Alliance Themed ModPack 1

- V5.2 Alliance Themed ModPack 2

- V5.2 Alliance Themed ModPack 3

- V5.2 Stock Themed ModPack 1

- V5.2 Stock Themed ModPack 3

First things first, what happened to Stock Themed ModPack 2? Secondly, do I only need the latest one to have all the features or do I need to install of them. For example, if I wanted the Alliance Themed Modpack 3, do I need install the first two or will the latest one suffice?

Also, I assume I won't be getting the AOSP lockscreen if I chose the Stock Themed ModPack, would I? And can I later change from one to another, say from the Alliance to the Stock Theme? And personalise each one as I wish?

So many questions... Guess I'm a bit excited to return on the Alliance ship again and slightly overwhelmed by all the choice and features.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] batlyn:
[MENTION=5125844]Rickav[/MENTION] flash the latest mod pack theme...me im using alliance theme..There are two lockscreeen on custom settings..the samsung lockscreeen & the Aosp lockscreeen. ..

edit: I have never tried stock theme...

flashing via rom customizer it will ask you what to install like stock theme or alliance theme, Google apps, samsung app...mod pack3 is the most stable...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Rickav:
Does anyone know what the stock Alliance modpack 3 hex colour codes are for the main theme colours, ie the battery icon and all the other statusbar icon colours (the code for that specific grey, as I would like to change the battery icon colour to the same for the sake of uniformity).
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dikkebas:
You could try 7e7e7e
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Rickav:
Any alpha value? I believe the other icons (wi-fi, signal bars) have some alpha...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Goldie:
For colors download this

..

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.andreyaleev.colorpicker

Google a screenshot of what you want and use that app to find the color
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Weetbix:
Does anybody know of a way to disable that annoying warning that pops up when airplane mode is toggled? I've looked through the Xposed modules and can't find anything.

On the occassions I do use it (admittedly, not that often) I'd like to be able to do so without being told that it is going to do what I want it to do...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
Hey Rickav,

v5.2 will stay current for another couple of weeks, I'm just icing a note 3 rom and will then set about v5.3 or possibly v6...it'll be worth the wait, the latest mods are very cool!!:cool:
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] PrettyJAE.swag:
Can you fix the notification panel clock and date alignment please?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] batlyn:
is it note3 4.4?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Rickav:
I was looking to flash the 4.2 Camera but I guess that's a no-no if you're currently on the V5.2, right?

Or can I go ahead and flash that along with the 4.2 Clock app if I wanted to?

Plus, is there any particular Xposed module you emulate? I mean, the vast customization options that you provide (from changing the hex colour code of every single element in the status bar to the notification toggles) has considerably surpassed any Xposed module that I have previously used (Wanam barely comes close). So, do you just create these by yourselves as a team or is there a mix of modules you cherry-pick from for the best results when it comes to personalization?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
Clock and camera 'should' work...I've not tested personally but don't see any reason why not...

Xposed to me is dirty word...all our mods are made in house, real coding by real devs :D So, in short, no xposed module was harmed in the making of our roms ;)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
Not sure what you mean, it looks ok on mine...can you screen or explain please?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
No, it's note 2 4.3.... :p
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] hotdroid:
have you tried wanam xposed? go to Notification panel, then choose/thick the option; Disable airplane toggle popup ;)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] batlyn:
im excited for the next release...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Weetbix:
:silly: Would you believe I have tried Wanam Xposed, and I have looked through it multiple times and I never saw it before? Duuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhh...........

Thankyou kinda sir, even if it is swearing in Sparky's eyes ;)

---------- Post added at 03:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:29 PM ----------

And we all thank you for it :)

I personally only use Xposed (inc Wanam) for some options that Alliance doesn't have. If those things magically appeared in Alliance one day then I'd be patting Xposed on the back and thanking it for it's time on my phone....
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] steff195:
I think he means this (see attachment)... a single text line (day,date) would look better if you ask me. :p ;) But I can live with this look if not possible. :D
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] batlyn:
one more suggestion how about an option to have a 1 or 2 personalized message tone/ringtone for the next alliance. ..
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Weetbix:
Oh heck, if we're still giving suggestions (I assume Goldy is vaguely watching the thread?), here's the mods that would enable me to give up Xposed. These are all things I used Xposed for, as such would be handy mods (well, handy for me anyway). If any of them get implemented - great! If not then I'll survive :D

* Support multi dpi. I use the app settings module to make a few things behave with 240dpi (camera etc)

* The ability to chose programs to keep resident in memory. I use this feature to keep the sound mod Viper4Android from being killed (also in the app settings module)

* disable the airpane toggle popup (from here on they're all in wanam)

* hide headset apps notification

* disable boot sound

* disable volume control sound

* disable low battery sound

* enable camera during call
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] txr33:
Enable camera during call is a csc feature and can be enabled in features.xml, disable low battery warning should be in the rom, to hide headset apps you just need to turn off page buddy and bootsound is disabled by removing poweron.ogg from system/media/audio/ui
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dikkebas:
I should think bootsounds are covered in OTA, just pick Remove Bootsound:D
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Goldie:
So I been busy....I made a new app that allows you guys to create your own themes. It backs up all color and theme settings and zips them with any wallpaper backgrounds. Then you can install them from a list of any you have on sd. This means all the people who wanted stock colors and theme style can install the StockTheme.zip and instantly have all stock options and you guys can all upload themes for others to try! :D

Sent from my GT-I9305
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Weetbix:
Yeah, but for some strange reason (probably some historical reason that I really need to let go of) I like the idea of being able to switch things on and off again. Sure, I might hardly ever want to re enable something but part of me likes having the ability anyway.

Like I said - probably some illogical reason I need to let go and free myself from :D:rolleyes:

Can I flash the AOSP theme here on Hurricane?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] haybill:
I just read, on the Hawkish thread that a guy was in same position as you and he flashed Omega v.18 and regained his imei/efs. No idea whether he was in exactly same position but I am sure that, by googling around you will find an answer.

Needles to say, his first priority was to back up his efs.

Surely you have an old Nandroid/TWRP on your PC?

ok I love this Rom but that last Build Has being the worst one so Far so Much bugs Freezing rebbotin the phone and overheating What heappened Guys ?

i did a lot of wipes and clean install and nothing fixed this issues

and yes it is happenin all the time here too,not complaiming cause i love that rom But just let be honest so much bugs why realase it this way ?

and yes i have the following issues too

random freezing and statusbar disappearing.

even Like this Thanx Aliance team hope ya'll fix it

so i on V4 i have to install that Repacked one ?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Goldie:
Well....yeah. Thats what this thread is after all...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
Hate to see you when you are...

What users like you seem to forget is that I spend all my free time putting this together for free...I really dont think you have any right to question what I choose to release.

Try reading op for flash instructions
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] demajoor:
Ok im not sure if I'm right but i have flashed this rom and an modem cause i had imei issues

Now i have some lags and want to reflash the rom

Is repack b good for that?

Here is a screen of what i have gothttp://db.tt/5DKZrWha
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
Yup...repack b :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] haybill:
Just a little reading before you flashed--probably would have saved you a whole lot of time.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] AndyMclamb:
SO sorry if i sounded rude wasnt my intention, its only bcuz i never used any other rom only that one that was the one that works bestt to me, and i never had any issue with previous version,so was strange when i notice the issues,regardless it, i apreciate so much your work and i know thats isnt easy

next time ll read all b4 install :good:
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] haybill:
Likewise--sorry if i came across as rude--but sparky b has worked hard to build this from ground up and, it seems, that many folks just aren't taking the time to check installation instructions; it's a totally different build from v.3 and v.3.1.

Good luck.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] txr33:
You can not flash the files from that link because it is for the i9300 not the n7100. The theme included with AllianceROM is modified and made to work with all AllianceROM features, so why not just try AllianceROM since you are already using custom roms?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Rickav:
So am I missing something... Or is this app not out yet?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dikkebas:
Still in Beta for now
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Rickav:
Righto... Should be great when it's good to go.

Also, I know there is compatibilty with this rom and certain versions of Devil kernel; is it also compatible with Agni PureStock (link in my signature)? Or do you suggest backup and test is the best way to know for sure?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dikkebas:
Devil is Ok for most. Only can't get ADB to work on it (except one older version)

On Agni , everything works great, sensors, compass, GPS, even ADB, but.......... I get all kinds of freezes, whatsapp losing history etc. etc. so I keep coming back to Devil

So best thing to do is nandroid and give them a go, decide for yourself:D
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Goldie:
OK guys.....go get it :) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2698258

Alliance Manager is a one stop shop to create, install and backup your styles and settings. Users can create their own styles to upload for everyone to use. If you want your style including in the app or available for others please upload it and post it in this thread!! The app will show no preview for your style unless you include a screenshot png named preview.png.

NOTE: The backup and inclusion of dropdown, statusbar and system wallpapers needs changes to your ROMs. These will be included in the next released versions so at present these wallpapers will NOT be included until you get an update for your device :)

The main features can be seen in this screenshot:

- Create Theme - This will create a theme.zip of all your custom settings that relate to theme options with a name of your choice. This will add all colors and theme settings along with dropdown, statusbar and system wallpapers to a zip that can be restored by you or uploaded for others to use. They are saved in the Alliance/Themer folder on your internal SD.

- Choose Theme - Choosing this option will display a list of all Theme.zips in the Themer folder. It will show you a preview image of the style and on pressing install will change all your options to create the style in the preview and restart SystemUI and Dialer etc

- Create Custom Settings Backup - This will create a backup zip of all your options in custom settings which will be saved in Alliance/Backup. This includes lockscreen options, general mods etc as well as all the theme stuff that is included in the theme zips.

- Restore Custom Settings Backup - Obvious really....restores all of your options

The app will create all necessary folders on its first opening and there are 5 preloaded styles for you to choose from:

Alliance Gold:

Stock Samsung:

S5 Style:

The Driller:

KitKat:

Thanks, enjoy and maybe buy me a beer if this made your life easier :p

CREDITS: All of Team Alliance for testing this over and over and over again....Thanks guys :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Rickav:
Couple more things [MENTION=3065070]Goldie[/MENTION]:

- What is the name of the font you are using in your screenshots?

- How do you edit how the date appears in the drop-down notification panel. For example, on mine, the first 3 letters of the day appear above the rest of the date (2 April 2014) whereas some of your screenshots show the full day with date on 1 line (S5 style) or just the misses out the day altogether (KitKat).

EDIT: Also, I swear there was an option for CRT OFF when locking the screen... Mind pointing me to where that option is...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Goldie:
1) sony sketch

2) its in dropdown date format in clock options of custom settings if you have it

3) crt is in general mods of custom settings
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
I'm not sure if dropdown date mod made it in to 5.2. V6 based nc3 is being built now and will have all latest mods in....
