Solution: Google sync and battery drain issues

Copy 'cm 11 build 3' rom zip on your pc and extract system/app folder to new folder say 'system apps' (We will need this later)

Open with winzip(or other software), goto system/app and make sure this folder has files mentioned as 'Capture.gif' only (Don't delete Bluetooth.apk and TelephonyProvider.apk...very important or you will end up with 'process is stopped' messages)

Flash this zip and reboot

Check system partition has minimum 25 MB space to make GAPPS work (you can use Titanium backup for this...more space, more chance of success...files from system/media/audio/ringtones and system/media/audio/notifications can be deleted but keep at least one file in each)

Flash given gapps and reboot

Flash patch zip (optional...takes less than 1 MB in system partition)

Google Sync issue fixed :)

===========================

Install apps from folder 'system apps' (mentioned above) which you need.

Install Greenify and add all apps to hibernate

Battery drain fixed :)

Has 8.5 MB free space in system after all this....I am using 'ondemand' cpu governer...no OC...and you will love this rom...let me know if this method worked for you :)

and yes, galaxyfreak - THANKS A TON !!!!
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] galaxyfreak:
So, my ROM is good when you succeed to install it ;)

Will try sorting out size issues in next build (not coming so soon)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] harib12:
Is this high drainage didn't use any app using on demand
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] axymk:
[MENTION=4635923]galaxyfreak[/MENTION] U can use a single zip file for ROM & gapps for that rom size issue, if possible.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] galaxyfreak:
I will not, and that would not solve issue anyway.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] pedrofidalgo:
But next build will fit system?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] galaxyfreak:
Lol. Build fits, gapps not.

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] wmapt:
You can delete files from /system/tts/lang_pico/ ... And some media sounds like ringtones.

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] NeoTrix:

you need to delete some apps on ROM manually before flash, because every Gapps is not fitted on hTC Pico right now without additional SD-Ext partition.

While waiting for my server to get back up, I'm reading more detailed about game compatibility issue on HTC Sensation forum.

I want to get this ION thing stable because it will be of use in all further development. Apart from Subway Surfers issue, I've got report that GT Racing is also not working. Same problem - black screen. Maybe it's related to game engine, but if we try to fix it from our side, here is the ways:

Way 1: Update framebuffer in kernel and display HAL

(hardest way, not sure will how it will behave on MSM7x27 - we may need to disable hardware composer)

Way 2: Revert to old Adreno libs (Smoothness, it was nice to meet you).

Way 3: Do not play games that are incompatible.I posted poll on Facebook, most of people don't care ;)

Can I flash the CM11-PATCH after flashing the ROM with AmalD's method?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Barua:
My review;

(I use Amald's kernel, sd-system --> sd-data method, my sd card is toshiba 16 gb uhs-1 class-10)

+ pros

* Ram management is perfect

* Super smooth despite system is on sd card, but better when its on nand.

* Didn't face any freeze or random reboots

* Wifi, bluetooth and data work well

* Battery backup is awesome, it is better than stock rom.

- minus

* Art is a little laggy (I think because of me, don't know didn't work well on my phone, freezes too much.)

* Usb tethering (galaxyfreak will fix it)

* Faced robotic voice on speaker

* Speaker sound is a little low

XD

and yes yes! the loudspeaker vol is also VERY LOW! during call if u switch on loudspeaker , u cn hardly hear! tough the voice is coming from the back speaker i.e. below the camera! try fixing the both the speaker issues in call! while music its loud though! only calling man! expecting a build soon! keep up the good work mate! and yes THANKS BRO :cool:

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] pedrofidalgo:
So the best way to make this work is:

Instal Rom (with amal kernel, SD-SYSTEM, SD-DATA)

Install Patch

Install Gapps

Right?

Even using amal kernel, and 2 partitions method, i need to delete some apps from system for gapps fit?

Also, what are the best gapps? There is 1 gapps in OP, and otherts in amal kernel post..
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] cuteitsme:
If you ar using amals kernel and method you dont need to delete anything. Also you need to use the pa gapps for this method for art to work given by amal.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] pedrofidalgo:
But i need to restart after install rom + patch right? And after restart i install gapps.

Because if i install gapps without restart, the partition method will not be activated, right?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] cuteitsme:
This is what I did....

Installed the ROM and rebooted the phone. After the first boot was completed went into recovery and flashed gapps. I didnt used the patch as it is for mounting sd-ext with galaxyfreaks kernel as his kernel was having issue with sd-ext mounting.

Rebooted after flashing the gapps.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Shivam Kuchhal:
Well I've been using this ROM from quite a few days now with OC kernel and its pretty awesome. All the normal apps work fine and never show any problems. I didn't had any random reboot issue too but the only issue I'm having is that phone freezes randomly and I've to take out battery to make it work again. I hope it'll be fixed soon.

Bro which files can be deleted from rom or from xperia keyboard zip file to reduse size.??
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] cuteitsme:
First check how much space is left on your system partiton. Mine was 2 MB.

This is what I did:

1. Opened ES File explorer in root mode.

2. I extracted the xperia keyboard flashable zip using ES explorer on the sd card itself. Installed text-textinput-tng.apk from /system/app of the extracted folder.

3. Clicked on Uninstall system app in root mode and uninstalled AOSP keyboard. Note that after this your back and other hard keys will not work until u install xperia or any other keyboard. Only home key will work. This gave me around 15 MB space in /system partition.

4. copied the library file from lib folder to /system/lib folder of my device. Changed the permissions to 644 i.e rw-r-r

5. Copied the whole xt9 folder from usr to /usr/ of my device. Changed the permissions of the xt9 folder to rwx r-x r-x. U can refer the other folders from /usr to match the permissions.

6. Lastly changed the permissions of all the files from xt9 folder to 644 i.e. rw-r-r. U can use adb or recovery for changing the permissions of these files as there are no of files in this folder.

7. Lastly kept the xperial keyboard as default and it worked.

I down. beta3 rom(cm-11-20131223-UNOFFICIAL-pico.zip) , gapps(12-14_GApps_Core_4.4.2_signed.zip) and patch(CM11-PATCH.zip) and installed them in that order... and i have only what`s in the picture as programs....

Notice

I don't wish to see another build get published, until this is sorted out. There seems to be confusion about "who" is allowed to release builds.

MD
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] pedrofidalgo:
This is a forum, where people should be allowed to talk..

It isnt correct to make a post dissapear just because we dont like what is in it.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Moscow Desire:
Because the project belongs to the OP. And when the OP states it is ready for release, then it will be ready.

Nobody has the right to "give away" works, without first asking the author for permission. This is first and foremost at XDA. Regardless, of chats, IMs, G+, when the op of the project states "Go ahead and release it", then it is released.

Not because somebody who worked on it decides.

Don't confuse "open source" with author rights as per XDA rules.

As I will state any more of these "outbursts" and it's not going to go down well.

You 2 need to work this out, and if you don't, I'll shut something/someone down.

Savy? I've got "0" tolerance for this mess, when it should be decided via PM.

So sort it out.

MD
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] thewisenerd:
tl;dr. I was banned because of failure to comply with the moderator.

lessons learnt: leave the OP to deal with thread, and take permissions before releasing any builds on their threads.

Always know that whatever you are going to do; some people will be pissed off.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Moscow Desire:
There is no freedom of speech at XDA. Understand this. When a mod closes something, then folks don't need to respond and pitch a hissy fit. There's probably a good reason for it. This is a development site, not a chat site. Folks are here as a "guest".

Don't like it? Go somewhere else or report me.
