Thanks for the recommendation! :good:

I will try MK Kernel r6 (mk-kernel-r6.0.1-release_noswp-CWM) when I get some enough free time. I hope it is fully compatible with stock JB and ROMs based on stock JB. :o

Sure, go ahead! When you get free time, give it a try. I'd like to see it. The best way to personalize your phone is by theming it yourself and make it look exactly the way you want it to look! :cowboy:

Sometimes you have to sacrifice battery for beauty :silly:.

Don't give up on your ROM, yet! Start slowly and work on it on your free time. It took me like 8 months for making my ROM. :o

Good luck!

:laugh:
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] Zouhuo:
Yes, this same.

When testing, will see that the performance difference is very noticeable.

Also, I've prove for a some time and is full compatible with JB
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] charnoha:
I cant wait to try 1.4 :)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] glajmate:
You said a month ago that within 3 days..

When can we try it out? :(
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] #Henkate:
Let's not forget that he has a life too. He would share it when he has time to do that. Just be patient and stay excited :D
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] glajmate:
Yes you have a point, i'm just so excited.:D

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] Sami Kabir:
Thank you for backing me up [MENTION=4471434]Force[/MENTION]! :o

In fact, thank you all for your long patience.

I am extremely sorry for this ill behavior. I know I am slow but this time I am extra slow because I am having some personal problems and I also got a new job few weeks ago. So after I reach home from work in the evening, I don't feel like using my laptop. This is why it is taking too long.

Believe me, the update is ready and it has been ready since August. The problem is that my phone mysteriously slows down after days of usage or when I attempt to multitask and I cannot seem to fix it. I have tested with dozens of different values for almost every single lines in my init.d scripts but sometimes they work and sometimes they don't. The reason why this takes too long is because I test my changes for at least 2 days or sometimes up to one week. This is why it further delays its release. You can look at my attached screenshots if you don't believe me.

For now, I have decided to give up and release the update as it is. If I get some free time in the future, then I will continue working on it again. I will release the 1.4 update before the end of September. If you are eager to try my ROM right now then you can go ahead and download this early build I uploaded few days ago. For more information like changelist or screenshots you can visit my ROM's website.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] #Henkate:
You don't have to prove anything, at least not for me :p The new Settings themed look cool, and I'm excited to see the new wallpapers :D Regarding wallpapers, do you have a zip with all wallpapers you got? I don't know where you find them, but are awesome.

Regarding the slow down, Google apps are the biggest problem. At this moment I'm on AOSP 4.4 by JTeam with mk kernel 6.0 and without google apps. Without google apps, I'm able to run stock browser, WhatsApp, viber and youtube same time. Rarely, one of them closed, but 3 still was running, even after ~5 hours. And I'm getting between 5-6 hours SOT :o Most of the time browsing though. But when i put gapps back, i can't achieve that multitasking and that SOT.

Here are the stock minfree values of the aosp 4.4 :

10496 - 41mb

13209 - 51.5976562 mb

15923 - 62.1992188 mb

18816 - 73.4609375 mb

21529 - 84.0976562 mb

26777 - 104.597656 mb

I don't know if helps on JB as it does on kitkat, but I'm quite satisfied with the multitasking.

I waited so much for sami os 1.4 and i still excited, but unfortunately i won't try it now, but i will do it ASAP. What bother me is that i have to re-partition my phone again after i downgrade to 4.1.2 and i spent some hours last time when i followed the guide by AntaresOne and i didn't save the values :(

I wish you solve your problems! :) And an OT, I'm 20 years in november and i didn't even work... I should have my own money from 18 years.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] edukardo:
Hey, friend. That´s why we are a community. Someone could help you if you release it.

Thanks for your hard work
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] Sami Kabir:
You're welcome. You make a good point, my friend. :o

Thank you (again)! :)

I don't think I have all the original wallpapers with me any more. All the wallpapers were edited/cropped/resized by me to fit our phone's resolution. I'm sure that you can use "Search by image" in Google Images to get the original (un-edited) wallpapers. You can get all my ROM's wallpaper by just extracting SecWallpaperChooser.apk ;)

Now a new problem has shown up. Now my phone randomly freezes and reboots. :mad::mad::mad:

KitKat is much less heavier than Jellybean - that's why it can be battery and multitasking friendly. Those minfree values don't look aggressive. And can you please tell me what your adj values are?

Here is mine:

echo '2560,4096,14336,20736,24064,30464' > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree
echo '0,3,6,9,12,15' > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/adj

(OT)

I am 19 years and with the qualifications I have, it is not enough to get a good job. I cannot join any universities now because my previous school is having some issues with the Ministry of Education. My dad was able to get me this decent job because he already works here in this office - so everyone knows me well enough. I am saving most of my salary for university and the rest I am saving up to get a low-end Alienware 15 or any other decent and affordable gaming laptop.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] #Henkate:
Adj values are: 0, 1, 2 , 3, 9, 15. Aren't my values, are the stock values, just like minfree ones.

The reboots you talking about are caused by these values? By the way, maybe you can try these values and see how is working, who know. But honestly, first versions of sami os didn't have performance issues, at least for me. It was pretty fine.

OT:

I hope you get these. I have to make some big changes in my life. I rarely go out... and such. I can fill the whole page if i write haha :D
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] Sami Kabir:
I agree. Up until 1.2, everything was great but I don't know what mistakes I made that led to its downfall. Actually,

echo '2560,4096,14336,20736,24064,30464' > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree
echo '0,3,6,9,12,15' > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/adj

^ those are from Sami OS 1.0. I am not sure what is causing the random reboots but they have seemed to stopped after I switched from CoCore E 8.2 to r09. Of course further testing is required. It reboot-ed many times while I was downloading TBBT season 5 using Flud in office :p. Because my home's internet connection isn't that great right now I can't download it now. So I will see tomorrow morning :p

Good luck! :o

Good Job [MENTION=4879114]Sami Kabir[/MENTION] I no longer have this Phone but I am sure this new update's great and I would have loved it. (I'm still subscribed to your thread :p)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] glajmate:
Awesome job Sami! :)

You are the best!
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] Sami Kabir:
[MENTION=4471434]Force[/MENTION], can you please do me a favor by telling me what the default values are for the following things (mentioned below)) in AOSP 4.4.4?

echo xx > /proc/sys/vm/[B]dirty_ratio[/B]
echo xx > /proc/sys/vm/[B]dirty_background_ratio[/B]
echo xxx > /proc/sys/vm/[B]dirty_expire_centisecs[/B]
echo xxxx > /proc/sys/vm/[B]dirty_writeback_centisecs[/B]

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Thank you! :fingers-crossed:

But I certainly am NOT the best! :p :p :p

Thank you! :)

Thank you! :p

What phone did you upgrade to? :)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] arneldna:
You knew it already, S6
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] #Henkate:
Sure.

Dirty_ratio = 20

Dirty_background_ratio = 5

Dirty_expire_centisecs = 200

Dirty_writeback_centisecs = 500

PS: nice avatar :)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] Sami Kabir:
Thanks a LOT! :laugh::good:

I think I should experiment with those values...

It most likely slipped out of my mind! :p

Congrats! (again) :p

my phone keeps rebooting after request for ppin when i have SIM card in my phone. Whats wrong?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] Sami Kabir:
I'm sorry for this inconvenience. I have never heard or experienced this issue on my phone.

What was the previous ROM you were using before installing this ROM?

And out of curiosity.. According to your signature, you're using either an Xperia Play and/or Walkman WT19. So on which phone did you install my ROM? This ROM is only for the Galaxy S Advance...
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] fliperpl:
i didnt update my signature for about 2 years. And also i did it for my friends galaxy s advance.

I Didnt have any custom rom before yours. I had stock 4.1.2 android. I just flashed CWM,did clean install and made everything from your instruction (install 1.0,boot phone,use it for about 10min and then boot to recorvery and then flash all updates)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] Sami Kabir:
[I'm sorry for my late reply]

Exactly when did you start seeing this problem? Right after installing 1.0? Or after installing all updates?

If its the latter, then I'm afraid the only way to find out which update is causing this will be by installing them one by one and then seeing if that triggers the issue. For example - install 1.1 and use the phone for a while to see if it reboots. Then install 1.2 and so on.

It might be because of something I removed in the recent updates but I still haven't experienced such issue on my phone.

There isn't much I can do from this end - and I'm sorry about that.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] fliperpl:
after all updates. I will try your method and give u feedback
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] mhmod222:
I have high battery drain

what should i use

governor and scheduler
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] Sami Kabir:
:(

Honestly battery is not the strongest suit in my ROM - it never was imho. The maximum SOT I am able to get is somewhere between 3 and 3.5 hours - and this happens very rarely. :mad:

I usually get it between 1.5 and 2.5 hours on my phone - which for me is okay but I know for most people it isn't.

I occasionally switch between Ondemand + noop, OndemandQ + sioplus and PegasusQ + sio. I also use Greenify and SDMaid Pro to reduce the number of apps and their services running in background. I have also disabled automatic syncing and some of Google's services to keep things simpler.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] xxziolo13xx:
Hey, I have problem with this switches. There are sings on them and it looks awfully. How can I turn it off?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] Sami Kabir:
I am very sorry about this!!

This only seems to happen when any language other than English is chosen. I missed this earlier because I only use English language on my phone. Sadly, I don't get a lot of free time nowadays but I'll try to come up with a fix asap.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] xxziolo13xx:
Ok, I can live with that. BTW great ROM, so smooth and stable.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] Sami Kabir:
Thank you for your kind words!

Download this View attachment switch_fix.zip and extract framework-res.apk. Copy it to your phone and install (replace) it. Hopefully this should fix the switches when any language other than English is set as the system default language.

Please let me know if it worked or not because when I tested it on my phone, it worked. :)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] xxziolo13xx:
It works. Thank you! :)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] MstfPsl:
Hi expert :highfive: I have a problem. There are two calendar apps in my phone. I have i9070p.

I flash stock germany rom with odin > Rooted > Cwm Recovery mode > Wipe Data/Factory reset > Wipe cache partition > Wipe dalvik cache > Sami_Os_For_GT-I9070.zip > Sos Update 1.1 > Sos Update 1.2 > Sos Update 1.3 > Sos Update 1.4 > i9070P Compatibility Fix > Cocore R-09

Is this correct? But I don't turn on my phone when doing them. For example: Should I turn on my phone after flashing Sami_Os_For_GT-I9070.zip? Or after flashing any updates?

How can I fix it or how can I remove one of them?

(Sorry For My Bad English) Thanks in advance :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] Sami Kabir:
The way how you installed my ROM and its updates is correct. As long as there aren't any force close messages from system apps, its fine.

I know that one Calendar app is from my ROM. It is the one from Google and it is named as Calendar.apk in system > app folder. Is the other one from Samsung (SecCalendar.apk) or do you have a third party Calendar app installed? - that might be the reason why you have 2 separate Calendar apps.

You can easily remove my ROM's Calendar app by using a File Browser (with root access) like MiXplorer and delete "Calendar.apk" in root > system > app folder.

I hope this solves your problem. :)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] MstfPsl:
Yes, my calendar apps' names are 'Calendar.apk' and 'SecCalendar.apk'. But there was only one calendar, when I was on 1.3.1 . And there isn't any different calendar apk file in SOS_Update_1.4.zip (system/app folder) . That's so weird :D

And thank you so much for the answer :highfive:

Question

Hey i am new here. I understand i have to flash all builds in chronological order but do i have to clean install the further builds or dirty flash is fine ???

I am really impressed by the thread and dev. The thread is very helpful even for new ones. Please reply asap.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] Sami Kabir:
You're welcome. :highfive:

I am glad I was able to help! :o

Thank you for your kind words! :o

You have to do a clean installation only when you are installing my ROM for the first time. So do it only before installing Sami_OS_For_GT-I9070.zip. Setup everything, install your apps and use your phone for a while.

And for the updates, 1.1 to 1.4 you can simply dirty flash (install) them in a chronological order. No need to wipe anything. :)

If I ever get the time, I will try to merge the ROM and all its updates into one zip - but I'm really busy nowadays...
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] lollazzo:
Sami what is the best Kernel? And best settings (governor, etc.)?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] Sami Kabir:
In my opinion, I'd say CoCore-E R09. I have been using it for a long time and I think it offers a good balance in stability, performance and battery life. I tried to use CoCore-E 8.2 but it gave me occasional random reboots on Sami OS 1.4 for some reason. But it is also a very good kernel.

For governor and I/O scheduler, read this post.

New Website!

Hey guys, just wanted to let you know that my all-new website dedicated to Sami OS is now live!.​

Due to a wrongful termination of my Yola account, I permanently lost my websites and this led me to building an all-new website, dedicated to my little project.

If you're interested then please checkout projectsamios.weebly.com!

One more thing...

According to the Download stats, Sami OS for Android now has over 10000 sub-total downloads! Despite the fact that very few people are using it, this number still is an astronomical amount for me and I am truly out of words!

Thanks to everyone for their support and kind words. Its been a long time and I hope you all have a great day. Cheers! :laugh:​

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] Nishad1982:
OP has all the info required to install a ROM

Read the OP pls for full info.

To speed up; you cannot directly install Sami OS 1.4. you need to install the base Sami OS 1.0 then use your phone for a while. set up all you need. Then go for the updates sequentially.

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] templeka:
Hi. I recently installed Sami OS on what now is my mom's phone and it works nice. I installed Cocore R24 (don't know if it's the best for battery life but it's the latest). If any other kernel version is more battery friendly and stable I would love some suggestions. The other thing I would like to get sorted out of if possible, since it's a bit confusing for my mom, are the quick launch buttons you can add in the dropdown menu. Any way I could get rid of that? I tried removing any app in there but there is still a + remaining taking alot of space.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] Sami Kabir:
Hi. Thanks for installing my ROM! :)

To get rid of the QuickLaunch panel, replace the existing SystemUI.apk with this one (in /root/system/app):

http://www.mediafire.com/download/l...UI+with+3minit+Quicklaunch+Panel+Disabled.apk

(please rename it to 'SystemUI.apk' after downloading it).

You can try R09 build of CoCore, I've been using it for a long time and I have no complains against it. :)

I don't use DSP Manager or any equalizers on my phone but I'll look into it. There are some music players (like the BlackPlayer I am now using) that come with their own equalizers and those seem to work. :)

Awesome animations

Awesome wallpapers

Awesome bootanimations

Awesome lockscreen swipe

Awesome themeing

Awesome performance(Asphalt 7 lagged on stock but not on cm 10.2 and now this)

Suggestions for you if you'd like to:

Lock screen widgets as in cm 10.1 and cm 10.2

Shortcut tiles as in cm 10.1

Some performance improvements will do

i have found a bug that is really annoying

i found it on sami os and light jb v 1.2

when the screen is on i leave it untill it goes off and just when it goes off i press home button

it's assumed that the screen goes on only no thing else

But what really happens that the screen goes on and the phone goes to home screen

and i should go to the app to the second time to open it again

really annoyiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] Sami Kabir:
Well then I guess that my ROM isn't compatible with i9070P after all :(

- Yes, the showing of 3G status icon instead of the proper one is infact a bug.. I am trying to fix it.. If I do, then I'll include it in my ROM's next update...

- Do all the pictures you to take become corrupted? I did experience it but it happened only once.. Try viewing those pictures on your computer to see if they're really corrupted... And try clearing your Gallery's cache.. One more thing.. Don't repeatedly take pictures in a hurry; let your phone properly focus it, process it and save it - then view the picture..

My ROM already includes the camera app and gallery app from Google Edition phones (running Android 4.3)

Hmm.. okay, I'll add a Mirror link asap!

- Adding widgets to lockscreen is going to Difficult because that feature is inclusive to Android 4.2 and above.. But I will try to make it look a lot like 4.2 lockscreen

- I did add AOSP lockscreen; but unfortunately the shortcuts are "fixed" and they can't be changed

- I'll do my best to keep adding Performance and Battery enhancements to this ROM!

I've experienced this a couple of times... This might be happening because your RAM usage must be high; that's why your phone is automatically killing foreground application(s) to free up RAM

To fix this, try any or both of this:

- Go to Settings > Developer Settings > Limit background processes.. Set it to 3 or 2 or 4 (depending on your preferences)

- If you know how to (safely) edit build.prop then look for "persist.sys.purgeable_assets=1" and set the value to "0" or just delete the whole line

(note: this may or may not work)
