Hello guys!

So, its seems I am a complete noob.

I downloaded,Slim Official Build 4.4.2 for I9100, the gapps for the same model, CWM KitKat Compatible I9100.

I went to recovery mode (Volume UP+Home+Power) -> wipe data/factory reset -> and when I try to apply the update from the external storage (Slim I9100 Official build) I get the (Status 7) error. I checked the 1st post from this thread, downloaded the I9100 compat Recovery.zip, but when I try to install it in recovery mode, I get "E:signature verification failed".

Can someone please help a noob? :D

[EDIT]

Nevermind, I finally made it, Im such a nablet, I realised I didnt have CWM installed in the 1st place.

I updated both, build 4 with the lastes minimal gapps. Now i can not use GoggleNowLauncher.

Everytime i want to start i get the message, i have to update GoogleSearch. But I'm on the lastest.

When i record with Smart Voice Recorder it restarts the phone. even i tried several another voice recorder programs but no luck. i installed 4.1.2 and will wait till this bug it's fixed. 10x
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
Fairly sure that MHL is broken on all custom AOSP ROMs on S2... no drivers... #blameSamsung

Probably because this isn't beanstalk... or c-rom... :P

That's nice... I want a new car...

Next time... try including getting some logs... otherwise we can't debug...

Also, did you install minimal Gapps... or AIO Gapps? I think the voice recorder stuff is in AIO...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] badblood_antony:
any way to get a damn call recorder to work two way on this rom ???
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ASW1:
I'd like to know this too.

Granted that is for CM10.2... but basically, most AOSP Based Custom ROMs suffer the same issue... sadly, there really isn't a lot we can do about it...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
Ok... so based on cgk's "workaround patch"... I have created a new build... :good:

I have upped it to dropbox... and have uploaded it to goo.im as well...

I would appreciate it peeps could try downloading and testing... hammer away at the sdcard and see if you can reproduce the sdcard bug...

I've had music playing off my sdcard via "Play Music" for a couple of hours without issue... and reports from the Omni thread seem to indicate it works for most things (some people having issue with dropsync, but I don't use that, so can't confirm)...

Have fun...

I flashed Build 4 and Dorimanx 10.43v100, but my battery goes 7-8 hours. It is not good for me, I can't use my phone after 3 pm. Is there any problem for Build 4 or Dorimanx?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] m1trand1r:
Well.....I think that patch worked.....at least on my side with [MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION]'s 05/04 build of SlimSaber where he added patch for testing.....now....I wasn't able to properly modify my 05/04/2014SlimSaber.zip on 04/01 build where patch wasn't baked in.....BUT I flashed [MENTION=1143422]CGK[/MENTION]'s workaround on that build and after reboot I was able to copy/cut/paste from external to internal sdcard and vice versa....also....editing inside of a zip. worked with 0 hassles....whereas prior applying [MENTION=1143422]CGK[/MENTION]'s patch....I was ALWAYS STUCK and ended up with corrupted data....

So....it's WORKING IMO.[emoji106][emoji122][emoji106][emoji122][emoji106][emoji122]....I.need to test the music play as well....but that will happen tomorrow as i'm short on.time right now....

Fresh install of latest SlimKat stable here, just chiming in with my +1 that I'm getting severe battery drain, the culprit according to Settings>Battery is Google+ (though I've heard other people saying it's actually Google Services?). Battery dying in less than 6 hours with close to zero usage (less than 5 mins usage). Tried disabling Google+, did nothing.

It sucks because I love Slim ROMs and I really want to use them for the natively darkened Gapps (which seem to be missing from the latest build anyway??) but I will have to switch to Ressurection Rom or Paranoid at this point otherwise my phone is dead to me past 2-3pm :/
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Twiq:
Try uninstalling google+ from slimcenter, do a reboot and reinstall google+ from playstore (if you need it back)..

Lately, high battery drain is caused by media scanning services, even tho there's no stats saying so on battery usage stats.

Also try force stopping media storage from system settings>apps>all tab. Clear its data. Open your favourite file manager then delete .thumbnails folder inside DCIM folder (check both sdcard and internal), then finally reboot.

See if it's going any better ?

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
Settings->Battery usage stats a fairly useless really...

As always... as mentioned about 53495021421 in this thread...

1. Install BetterBatteryStats (get it free on XDA forums!)

2. Identify App/Process generating Wakelocks

3. ???

4. Profit!

What occurs at 3. is really up to the user and generally defined by what exactly is causing the wakelocks... in general, the biggest cause of severe battery drain is usually the horrendous MediaScanner on Android... honestly, I have no idea what AOSP/Google have done... but it just sucks... and has done for a LONG time...

If it finds a "corrupt" media file... usually one with unexpected or nonstandard meta data... it will go haywire and just run forever until your battery dies :(

Lately, Google+ seems to be causing a few issues here and there as well... It isn't affecting everyone, so I'm not sure if that is just because there is a mismatch with Google+ And the Google Services Framework, caused by people dirty flashing, or because we packaged mismatched versions... or if G+/GSF is just buggered... :confused:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Hopper8:
I don't use G+ so can't comment there, but can definitely say that the media scanner has been running riot. There's been a lot of posts (especially since Kitkat) where people's mediascanner seems to randomly trigger, and seems is almost impossible to get back to normal. I guess it's something to do with the fuse daemon bug? I had one just yesterday where even freezing mediascanner with titanium backup didn't stop it. Nandroid didn't fix it either, I full wiped and seems to be ok... Weird. And annoying. [emoji12]

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] lations:
Hmm ok, so I followed Twiq's advice and now the abysmal battery drain problem has ceased - it was either Google+ or the media scanner thing, I'm putting my money on it being the media scanner thing perhaps? Maybe Google+ was just scanning my photos repeatedly to try and upload them, or something, who knows.

It's fixed now anyway...hope we can isolate the problem so future builds are rock solid though :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Serkenar:
I also have an issue with mediascaner service, however the issues survives full wipes and flashing different roms. Perhaps there're some bad media files, but I can't find which ones. Had to resort to disabling it entirely. To do this you can issue these commands via adb or terminal emulator, or by creating a script file and launching it with ScriptManager:

su
pm disable com.android.providers.media/com.android.providers.media.MediaScannerReceiver

to enable it back:

su
pm enable com.android.providers.media/com.android.providers.media.MediaScannerReceiver
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Hopper8:
Hmm that's weird. Now that I've full wiped and installed latest build my issues are solved (for now, :fingers-crossed: ) I will keep that in mind though if i need to force it to be disabled.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bodzik155:
I flashed 4.4.2 replacing pretty old 4.2.2 and I am not really excited. There are few new functions, but I miss profiles and one click apps clear very much. These are one of most usable functions IMO. Will you guys maybe include them in future releases? Also system apps remover doesn't work for me. After reboot app still exists.

[MENTION=309187]edit[/MENTION]

I found out how to clear all apps (pinch), but it was not so easy. Also it's very hard to pinch in vertical mode. Maybe better choice is to place a button like in JB?

Am I the only one whose battery gets drained instantly sometimes?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] j1gga84:
+1

No matter what kernel I use but only with screen on normally.. I also replaced my 2 year old battery but still the same. I will try a fullwipe as last option and if this will not bring any efforts I think my S2 will be retired after 3 wonderful years and the time to go on has come ;)

4.1.2 had best battery life, 4.3.1 was a bit worse but still good but 4.4.2 is bad. No screen on times over 4h and battery is empty after 12 hours :(

BBS also show no significant wakelocks..

with latest Dorimanx beta it is quite better than with stock or gustavo_s but still not as good as 4.3.1

So until my I9100 will be retired this year I can live with Dorimanx :good:

Hello,

I used AOKP (ICS) for 2 years, used CM11 since 2 months, tested Mokee and early tested SlimKat. I noticed that SlimKat has UI really thin and really smart, it’s good. Beautiful style. I didn’t saw performance options, as frequency variation. Is there in ? In my roms tests, I search a camera that will be always smooth @ 1080p recording. Slimkat is like others : recording @ 1080p make small lags, not always smooth. For now, all kitkat rom I tested have same issue @ 1080p recording.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Hopper8:
Wow how do you use one rom for 2 years :eek:

Anyway, about your questions... Performance options are under settings - advanced - performance.

And about 1080p recording, I'm on unofficial SlimKat (slimsaber) by fusionjack and 1080p records fine for me. Maybe it's my phone /kernel combination? Or maybe it's slimsaber vs SlimKat. I'm not sure, but you could definitely try slimsaber and see how you go?

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hawaiisteve:
Hi everyone. Just wanted to share a little something I found. I've been battling media scanner issues like a lot of you and found a possible workaround.

I deleted all media (music, pictures, video) and the scanner was still sticking at times. I ran a scan using SD scanner and noticed it was getting stuck when scanning app info in the android folder. Turned out to be from an app named Pulse, which is a news app I use. There were 600+ images saved. So I deleted that folder and was OK. The next day, I read my usual news and Pulse downloaded all the images again and the scanner got stuck again...

I ended up deleting the images folder and replaced it with a file with the same name. Now, I can't get the pics on the tiles for each news article, but no more stuck scanner!

Its not the ideal workaround because I lost some functionality of the app, but at least its not killing my battery...

I'm sure other apps might be causing this so you guys might want to check your app folders out.

Personally, I think the KitKat media scanner is somehow just too sensitive...I mean I never had this problem on jb...

Edit: I forgot to mention that before I changed the folders for files I tried a .nomedia file in that folder, but for some reason, it was still getting scanned...

2nd edit: oh well. It worked until I rebooted. The app created new folders and deleted the filed I made. At least I know what's causing my media scanner to get stuck...

3rd edit: I'm pretty sure the images this app is saving are causing my media scanner issues. Found an app on playstore called Advanced Permission Manager which can remove permissions from apks. Removed the write to SD perm from Pulse and it seems to be working...no more stuck scanner!!!

Lost ADB connection and Broken USB/UART path settings

TLDR; BNTLTS;

(But Not Too Long To Search)

@HardCorePawn : Thanks for that tip, it just saved me from having to reflash stock! I posted more detail int the SlimRom forum thread:

Broken USB/UART path causing loss of ADB

But I will put the main points in this thread as well, as I think it could help others. I certainly didn't find a solution by searching.

What was my problem?

I somehow got stuck into a setting where my PC would no longer recognize the phone, since the phone insisted in presenting itself on the USB port with VID/PID: 18d1:d002 (Google Nexus 7) instead of the correct 04E8:685E (SAMSUNG Mobile USB Composite Device Driver).

Back in the days of Ginger Bread stock roms, we used to have several options to switch the internal USB MUX from MODEM to PDA. We could do it by:

manipulating param.blk

manipulating /mnt/.lfs/sw_sel

manipulating /sys/class/sec/uart_switch/UART_SEL/value

manipulating /sys/devices/platform/s3c2410-i2c.5/i2c-5/5-0066/max8997-muic/usb_sel

Using the Samsung PhoneUtil.apk menu accessed by the "secret" code *#7284#.

However, after moving up 7-9 API versions to the KK 4.4.2 I could no longer find any of these options available. Doing what would make sense:

echo -n "PDA" > /sys/devices/virtual/sec/switch/usb_sel

Did not do anything, although doing "MODEM" it enlisted the debug diagnostics interface (I have the 7CDCs drivers). But there was no going back.

The only thing that worked was your quick fix above.

(What is the function of those lun devices anyway?)

So this bring up some further questions to the Slim developers:

Is there a quicker way to do this in the Slim* UI that doesn't involve multiple command line entries?

Is there a hidden service menu item, that does this, that I should know about?

If not, would you (developers) consider re-implementing the Samsung PhoneUtils.apk with appropriate new modifications, so that we can do this from UI like in the old days?

Here are some pictures to show how it should look when doing the above hack:

Hope this helps.

write /sys/class/android_usb/android0/enable 1
start adbd
setprop sys.usb.state ${sys.usb.config}
..

Now, I have no idea why you would wanna fall back to a Google Nexus 4 (debug) port. So I really think this is part of the problem. As for non persistency, we'll have to wait an see.
