You can install the xposed framework [http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=47771876] and use gravitybox to add/remove quick tiles. I also was able to tweak some other things too, like using circlemod for the battery percent.

It's pretty straight forward to use. The directions are on the original xposed framework thread.

You can also download modules straight from the xposed app.

I have been working on the Kernel to solve the Battery issue and I believe I got it finally. I have a zimage but need to merge it with the CM11 ramdisk. I have also been working on building the full rom as well and this is proving more difficult. I get a weird non-descriptive error that I cant seem to find a solution for. But I am persistent. I should be able to finish the Kernel tomorrow. This means I will be able to port some of the newer builds that have the newer Mali drivers while trying to build for the i777.

Ok so I FINALLY found the solution to the error crashing my build of CM11 for i777. There is a patch submitted to Gerrit that I will use tonight and at least that should fix that problem. The build should be successful after that. I have built the just the kernel with no issue but I don't have the correct initramfs and am having to build one from scratch and other older examples. Possibly after I get a full build of the rom I can then take the compiled kernel and decompile it to get the correct initramfs from it. I am fairly new to this but the only way to learn is to dive in. Once I can build the kernel by itself I will then start looking into adding different governors and OC work. I will leave the more impressive Kernel work to AJK once his 5.0 build is out.

Kind Regards,

Good news, and great work. Appreciate all the time your putting into his to get a good build out to the community
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
So . . . The build failed when trying to compile the Kernel. I believe I have fixed the problem and have to start completely over. Yeah! The problem was when I built the kernel I had to use an absolute path ie:

/home/Render/android/source/cm/kernel/

It is supposed to be just

"source/kernel"

I made the changes back and am building now but wont know the results til I get back home from work. Good news is the Rom portion compiled just fine. I know the Kernel source works so if these two things are correct then I should have a build ready for me when I get home.

Just thought I would share.

He's such a tease. lol good job bro thanks for everything you are doing here! Much respect.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
So since I am a tease . . . lol I found the EXACT issue that caused my build not to work. The boot.img (Kernel + Ramdisk) had not been built correctly when the ZIP was created. I was able to use a different known working kernel and I was able to boot correctly! Yeah! so I have all the files to create the boot.img and will try to make it shortly and just insert it into my Compiled rom zip. Then I will need to find the script that builds the actual boot.img file. What this means is the Rom works and the problem should be easier to fix than I thought. Just want to keep people updated.

Also since I have been deep in research about this, I found that the kernel for CM should work for Omni. That said, once I get all the kinks worked out with my build environment I will start creating a custom kernel for both CM and Omni.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] wiithepeng:
Are you compiling this from CM 11.0 git?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
Yes.

So I ran another build and still the boot.img was not built correctly. I know this since I have the

boot.imb 3MB

kernel 3MB

ramdisk.img ~750Kb

ramdisk-recovery.cpio 4.1MB

ramdisk.cpio ~1MB

So this tells me that the ramdisk was not properly inserted with the mkbootimg command.

Just thought I would share. I could insert an older kernel but the battery bug would still be present. So I need to find out the exact parameters for the mkbootimg command

This is about what I use (from memory)

./mkbootimg --kernel kernel --ramdisk ramdisk.img --cmdline dont remember --base 0x40000000 --pagesize 4096 -o boot.img

Are these parameters correct. I researched and tested but cant make them boot up my phone. Do I need to do anything with the .cpio files? If so what? If anyone wants to help please let me know what you guys think.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
Thanks,

I do IT consulting and manager small business to medium size businesses. One of our new clients wanted to setup a thin client environment the when they boot up they access Windows server running terminal services in the cloud. They wanted to open up more businesses without setting up a new Linux server and having a complicated R sync script maintain ed their database. So I had to learn like us the hard way and o setup Linux thin client server to repurpose their old equipment. So from then on I could see the power of Linux. I like to figure things out and am never satisfied with status quo.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
So just because i like to keep ppl in the loop. I have been looking through all the source and doing extensive research in my free time. It is amazing what a # can do. I started running diffs and found a discrepancy in the kernel defconfig file (duh). So the problem was when the kernel was being built it was not correctly including the initramfs files. I have no idea how it had become commented out but anyways, I am building just the kernel right now and hopefully we will be good to go.

Hopefully soon I will have this all worked out and have a ROM built from source for our phone. I will keep building with updates til the Official nightly comes out. If I haven't already start building with Linaro and Sabermod by then, then that will be the next big push to do since I believe the benefit from those would be greater then the Official nightly. I will also pepper in some Kernel additions and maybe even some ported features from other roms. Who knows at that point but the main thing is I plan on maintaining my ROM development for while.

I had to fix a typo build error this morning then rekickoff the build again. It picked up where it left off luckily. Also this build will be Android 4.4.1. I knew there was something wrong with the boot.img and the problem was because of the # the initramfs source was not being integrated with the kernel. That meant not recovery no nothing. So I am very hopeful that the bugs are worked out now and I will start ripping nightlies most likely every other day.

Thank you are all of your assistance to the i777 community. you have been a valuable asset.

So when I built the last nightly and used an older working kernel, the Quick Select Toggles where working, I believe the power menu was configurable, I think Apps Ops was there. pretty much most of the main stuff. I do know that the status bar options were not present though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
OK so because I am impatient, I have good news and bad news. Good news is I took the newly built boot.img file and used it with the last nightly I made and it WORKS. Bad news is the battery bug is still preset which is weird since I thought the fix was merged already. So I will have to cherry pick the needed changes and build again. Since it has been awhile since I have uploaded anything I will upload what I have so everyone can see the progress made with CM11 itself. I will also be creating another Tread in the main android dev section. Here is a milestone I am glad to make and hopefully its down hill from here.

ROM upgrades

It is in the Wizard subforum called "Wizard Upgrading" and the process is not exactly intuitive. There is no easy executable to run and forget about until it is done.

All of the ROM updates for the Wizards are really being delayed by the system integrators adding in the MSFP to the new ROMs. It is pushing even small bug fixes back such as this one.

The ROMs that you will find in that section are from people that have just recently received their units and they have new ROM images in them by default. We have managed to strip them out and apply them to other devices to get those bug fixes that are being delayed to the rest of us early adopters.

Good luck and God speed should you start down the ROM update road.

[Google Chromecast] HbbS:
Hi there.

First and foremost, I am outside the USA. Since I've got my chromecast I have been using it to acess Netflix, Hulu Plus, Pandora et all using a firewall rule that I learned here at XDA Dev Forums.

This one: iptables -I PREROUTING -t nat -p udp -s (chromecast IP) --dport 53 -j DNAT --to-destination (your DNS)

With that being said, this morning I noticed that there was an update on Android and iOS adding DIAL support (Chromecast) to HBO GO.

I installed on both OSes and to my great surprise it didn't work on neither.

Here is the situation right now.

On android (s4 mini running 4.2) it fails to connect and asks me to try it later on. On the TV I only got a black screen.

On iOS running the latest iOS 7 it seems to connect, but there is only a black screen on my TV. If I try to play something, nothing happens, the TV continuous to have a black screen and on the ipad the title choosed to play never starts actually playing and stays there forever. If I hit disconnect on the ipad the chromecast returns to its home screen.

Is there anyone else experience this behaviour on Chromecast using the HBO GO app just released?

Please, let me know if this is a known bug or it is something else.

Best Regards
[Google Chromecast] chateau1:
I am in the USA and HBO Go is working fine on my ' unrooted ' Chromecast. Have not tried it on my rooted one yet but in another post (KyoCast Post, Page 14) a user was reporting problems with his rooted Chromecast if I read things correctly.
[Google Chromecast] HbbS:
Thanks for replying.

This just add to my suspicion that indeed the HBO GO app behaves differently than the previous one.

The thing is I dont have the resources to search throughly and neither the knowledge to discover why this is happening. I dont even own a Desktop PC anymore.

HBO GO works as it should be on my iPad, Android, Apple TV and Roku.

The issue is when it starts to casting. I only got a black screen.

This is not a rooted device. I've been using to bypass geo-blocking iptables rules only.

My hope is that later on someone else discover what exactly this HBO GO app is doing differently than all the others.

Of course it can be a sort of bug. I already contacted google to let them aware os this possible issue.
[Google Chromecast] third son:
I had the same problem when I attempted to launch a movie without first starting it on my device. If I start playing on my device and then switch to the Chromecast it works fine. Before that it would seem like it wanted to load but did nothing or I got a communication error.

Edit...I have a rooted device but I don't think that should matter.
[Google Chromecast] HbbS:
I already tried that on my ipad. It doesn't work. If I fast-forward a title to an example 5 min in when a hit the cast button, my TV screen ends black and on the HBO GO app, the time of the title playing goes back to the start and stays there.

On the android side I cant do this attempt. When I hit the cast button, it keeps trying to connect for one minute or so until it pops up a message saying: Failed to connect to Chromecast. Please try again later.
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
Your discussion reminded me that I should actually be able to use HBO Go. Thanks! Will try it when I get home...
[Google Chromecast] HbbS:
Please, would you be kind to confirm (perhaps with a picture) if the HBO GO app has a Welcome/Home screen like the other apps do?

I already contacted google on this but it will took a while to get "there". Perhaps my serial is blocked or something. The workaround with iptables should have been enough to circunvent geo-blocking. With the exception of HBO GO all other apps do.

BTW, my Chromecast was one of the earliest to be bought and shipped, my serial number starts with 362

I am convinced that somehow my Chromecast isnt talking with the HBO GO app.
[Google Chromecast] Kryspy:
No, mine does the same. I am in Canada as well. This whole Chromecast thing is starting to make me think its time to mothball it for a while. I'll just stick with my 2 Apple TV that don't require so many hoops.

Kryspy
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
Sorry for the delay, I took a nap...

Yes, HBO Go appears to have a "home" screen that displays when the app is connected but idle.

It's a black screen with just the HBO Go logo in the center.

Sorry for the poor picture, was trying to avoid excessive glare.
[Google Chromecast] HbbS:
Been there...

There is hope. I bet that someone with the proper knowledge to investigate this, will find a workaround. I didn't heard back from Google about the possibility of this be a bug.

But with your post it is getting clear that this is in fact a geo-ip block of sorts happening on the HBO GO app side.

Maybe a possible workaround will be to redirect the exactly IP or IPs the HBO GO app is using to independtly check for geo-block.

I dont have the exactly knowledge to do just that but I looked into the traffic in my network while using HBO GO in cast mode and there is some HBO GO IPs in action and then the traffic stops completely with the HBO GO side.

Could anyone here with more knowledge have a look into it?
[Google Chromecast] HbbS:
Thank you bhiga.

It is getting clear by the minute that this is a geo-block in action.

I know that this could seems a minor issue right now, because HBO GO (US) subscriptions, outside the USA is something restrict, but the thing is the possibility of this reinforcement policy on the application side to be used as a norm for future apps or even updated versions of the ones already working is troublesome for everyone.
