What kind of recovery does your kernel have twrp ?

P.A.C 4.3 ALPHA
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] wiithepeng:
CWM
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] txnolesfan93:
So how does that work with kernel not having a recovery?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] wiithepeng:
I derped for a sec and forgot it had CWM lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] txnolesfan93:
Now I'm gonna try.....

---------- Post added at 02:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:26 AM ----------

One more thing before I dive in....wipe dalvik wipe cache then flash kernel and I know cooks kernel cleaner is optional before kernel install but after kernel install do I reboot recovery then reboot system? Or just reboot system after kernel install?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] wiithepeng:
Just reboot system

I'm setting up a build environment on my windows machine. Using virtual box to put a guest Ubuntu on. So excited to screw up for days before getting anything useful out of it but that's half the fun right lol. Thanks for reigniting that flame in me render. You are the man sir.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
NP brother! Just remember there are issues with using certain toolchains. (If I remember correctly) That's why I decided to build a dedicated build machine that I can VNC into from anywhere. If you have questions feel free to ask in this thread and I would be happy to help. You can also send me a PM if you need to.

What are your flags for TARGET_linux-arm.mk?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
I am going to assume your asking me. I don't know where that specific file is located. I don't remember seeing it anywhere. Can you point me in the right direction? Also I sent a PM to you. What were the fixes you had to do to fix the button and mic? I think I know what it was but wanted to see if you could confirm. Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] wiithepeng:
The file is at build/core/combo/TARGET_linux-arm.mk and I am wondering what your TARGET_arm_CFLAGS are.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
Once again I am going to assume you are talking about his and not the Global CFlags

TARGET_arm_CFLAGS := -O2 \

-fomit-frame-pointer \

-fstrict-aliasing \

-funswitch-loops

Why are you asking?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] wiithepeng:
Just wondering, cause I was looking at the way some other people were compiling using linaro and they changed these to -O3 and some other flags.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
I had changed this in the select.mk:

$(combo_target)RELEASE_CFLAGS := -O3 -g -fno-strict-aliasing

My understanding was this was setting it globally.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] wiithepeng:
Oh ok thanks, I'll have to try that out! Also, what antutu scores are you currently gettting?

Courtesy of Wiithepeng, he has helped me resolve the problems I was having along with part of my source being jacked up for some reason. I should have a good build up tonight. I will most likely post it in this thread and may create a separate thread. I am really waiting on getting the ramdisk needed for Omni before creating another thread with my kernel. So when I am done I will be building for both CM11 and Omni.

If I am not mistaken I think the kernel source includes an omni/twrp ramdisk
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
I will compare with my own ramdisk.cpio. I thought they might be different but may give it a shot. What does it hurt. I will build one and test it out.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
Kernel is now posting in OP#2 Check it out guys and let me know what yall think! Also once I am sure its stable after feedback from yall I will start adding them directly to the Rom Zip. For the time being you will need to flash the kernel after flashing the Rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] azeem40:
Awesome kernel Render. It works perfectly. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] csfile:
Kernel working. Just one thing I noticed. In system settings-> buttons, I have backlight disabled. With wiithepeng's kernel, that works. With this kernel, they're back on again. Just to check, I flashed back to wiithepeng's and the backlight is disabled.

Edit: flashed render's kernel again and it's working fine. So please ignore :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
This build is no longer ported, it is built completely from source and using the i777 device blobs natively.

Also I have had no such issue like you explained Azeem. Did you wipe data/factory reset after flashing the Rom and GApps? And the Launcher is the updated CM launcher. I am sorry you are having so many issues. It has been rock solid for me all day.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
Also I was able to use Dev Host finally to host the main download and am now using Mega as the mirror. OP has been updated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] azeem40:
This is what I did:

1. Wipe data/cache/dalvik/system using Mr. Cook's ROM Wipe Script.

2. Install the latest nightly of CM to get latest recovery (but it gave me a status 7 error when I tried, so I flashed ShoStock3 and then the CM nightly to get the latest CWM).

3, Rebooted in to recovery.

4. Flashed your ROM.

5. Flashed GApps 4.4.

6. Wiped Data/Factory reset

7. Reboot.

I filled out all the things like logging into gmail and cyanogenmod, setting time/location, but when it finished, no homescreen came up; just a black screen. To open browser, I had to use the lockscreen shortcut. Idk what is happening. :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cyril279:
I flashed this barebones (no gapps, no add-ons,) and there weren't any issues whatsoever.

I added on BaNkS 4.4.1 GApps, and still everything works as expected.

thank you [MENTION=5438598]RenderBroken[/MENTION]
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] lordmorphous:
Rebooted into recovery and wiped data/factory reset. Rebooted, changed some things around and rebooted. Flawless! Thank you OP!!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cyril279:
actually, azeem the flash order you listed might be a part of the issue? cook's script should be run JUST BEFORE cm11 for best results. The fact that the ROM boots for you suggests that everything went fine though... maybe your choice of GApps?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] azeem40:
I used paranoidandroids 4.4 full gapps. OH, I flashed cooks rom wipe before installing the 10.2 nightly. You think that might be the problem?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] atvspecialties:
I installed from the directions in the op. Running smooth as silk.... As I type this. I also used cooks rom wipe. Thanks for the port.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] azeem40:
It is fixed! It turns out that when I install GApps 4.4, it would not allow me to press the home button to return to the homescreen. Thank you very much cyril!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
Weird, I usually just flash AJK AOSP 4.9 so I could either restore a backup or flash new CM nightly. Also I am not dogging Mr. Cook but I have had issues in the past using his rom script. I am not saying that's the problem for sure though. Also I am not sure but in-between steps 3 and 4 you should have:

Wiped Data/ Factory Reset

Wipe Cache

Format System

Wipe Dalvic

That said this is exactly what I did:

I started off already using AJK AOSP 4.9 so from there I flashed the latest CM Nightly

Rebooted recovery

Then I Wipe Data/ Factory Reset

Wipe Cache

Format System

Wipe Dalvic

Flashed Rom

Flashed GApps

Wipe Data /Factory Reset

Reboot System

That's it for me and as `
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] azeem40:
It is fixed as I stated in previous post, but switching from Dalvik to ART crashes everything. I am ok on Dalvik, but just a heads up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
Yea, I had typed the reply awhile back and sent it too late. lol. Also the PA GApps are supposed to work with ART correctly but I am not 100% sure ART is working as its supposed to with CM11 or CM11 on our phone.

camera still has a bug when you try video recording
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] azeem40:
It ran perfectly on Omni ROM. I can live without it. Apps only opened a tad quicker.

---------- Post added at 09:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:34 PM ----------

I can confirm this. It freezes camera app.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] BInspirinG:
I downloaded it just fine.

First off, I don't have any sounds. Besides hangouts and Facebook noises.

Secondly, Play Music doesn't recognize my SD card.

Anybody have these issues?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
I have a build going that should fix the Camera issues you both described, If it works then I will commit the changes to source.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] azeem40:
If it isn't much to ask, could you include the option to select Launcher from Home like in official KitKat or even Omni ROM?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
Im not sure I understand exactly what your asking. If you go to settings and under Personalization. There is the Home button and from there you can set the default launcher. But I'm not sure that's what your asking either.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] azeem40:
I don't see it under Personalization.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
Maybe you have to install another launcher first before the button is shown.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] IndigoAK:
You said you were thinking about a name for your ROM, I think.

I know you said you wanted this ROM to be a learning experience not just for you, but for others, so my suggestion is SocraticMod or SocraticROM or even just Socrates if you want to be slightly pretentious. :P

I would love to help, but while I've done my fair share of coding and whatnot (I maintained a sort of popular WordPress theme for a while), it's never been what I really care for. I've always been more interested in UI development and the psychology that goes into how people react to different UI elements, etc. I'm also curious about branding and marketing. In fact, I'd say advertising or marketing would probably be my dream job.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sharonbw:
Speaking as an obsessive flasher (not a developer) this ROM is snappier and smoother than anything I've had in a while. Not a single issue so far and I reinstall tons of apps using TB. (If I get an issue I'll do a clean install to test it.) Thanks Render! Btw, I vote for "RenderedROM"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] wiithepeng:
Yeah the default stweaks config has the backlight disabled, you can change this in stweaks though,
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
I understand what you mean. I have done some HTML and Java back in the day. I have studied how the human eye interacts with UI elements. About how certain colors can increase the change the person focuses at a certain point and no not just bright colors though that works. I have done Photoshop work but no longer have photoshop. I found i like virtual machines and setting up the backend. This included the prerequisite Server work and Networking. I learned to setup a virtual enviroment in linux way before learning using VMWare and Windows Server. Android is just a passion that branches from Linux. Not only is it a passion but it looks good on a resume. :)

When I go into stweaks app it really quick says unexpected error then opens the app. Should that be happening? And gov/scheduler keep resetting to default every time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
I had seen the error too but it had not appeared to affest anything for me. Let me test the gov since I had not noticed that as well. i have a new kernel build with numerous changes and i will post soon.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sharonbw:
So far the ROM is functioning perfectly. Apps that crashed: Google Chrome, Gallery, Google Earth, Google Search and Google Maps. Also the game, Draw Something.

I downloaded the Aroma Apps in the OP. Guess I'll try the other ones...

Update: I don't have the patience for another clean install right now and it clearly doesn't work to overwrite one set of Google apps with another, lol. Unfortunately my nandroid seems to be corrupt so it looks like I'll be wiping and reinstalling anyway but waiting for the new kernel.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] azeem40:
The only thing that has crashed for me is the stock Browser when accessing facebook, but otherwise, great ROM by Render. Also, my sTweaks gives me the same error that txnolesfan93 has had.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] wiithepeng:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
Report back and let us know. Thanks for the info as always!

I had created a new ROM build and packaged the kernel with it and i could not get Wifi to turn on at all. Since then I built a new kernel with numerous changes but one that i think fixed it was updating the initramfs. So i am doing a bit more testing and will see. If all is well I will upload the rom tonight with the new kernel.

Thanks, since it doesn't seem to effect anything I have not really looked into it. I will once I get some free time.

As I said I should be uploading a new Rom build and Kernel to boot! There have been numerous changes to the Kernel. I will list the major ones in the changelog but for a more detailed listing look at my github. The new ROM build i had discarded a few commits to see if I can resolve some of the minor bugs that were not present in earlier builds. Please report in thread your experience after flashing the new zip. Also I am running off a build for OmniRom. I will make a thread but since I dont have alot of time I will most it simple and as a place holder for when I do get time tomorrow. I would like someone to test the Omni Build and shoot me a PM to report back. Do I have any takers? Thanks Guys. Since i will be off for the next two weeks (At least from my main job) I will have more time to really dive into my source and get some cool things going. Unfortunately I will have to redownload CM11 source (Again? I know!) so i can resolve the git confusion. I want to start pushing my changes to Github and will never be able to do so correctly and cleanly without starting anew. I had a .git folder hiding and throwing off my revision history. Yea! lol . Thanks Guys and I truly hope you have a great christmas!

dude i keep saying im down of course i will...

On this ROM or on my girls phone(omni).. And ya isn't it just backup and restore ... Or should I just reflash.... O I wanted to say I tested out pa modular mini gapps and I had a bunch of FCs and homescreen shortcuts removed after reboot.. After the reboot I thought for a minute I had similar problems when I started with aroma so it could have been a dirty flash...

And about that I have a question about twrp do you guys flash all together or flash rom then flash the gapps etc etc. ... Like what I'm saying is queue sorry haha I'm a bad speller I hope that's spelled right I mean like in sequence........ Ya Spell check is my best friend

I am working on some merge issues and should be able to build tomorrow. I have to fly out to Alabama though so it wont be til the evening. Soon I will have the kernel ironed out for the i777. Till then consider these build as beta. They wont brick your phone but MAY have minor issues. But just because they may doesn't mean they will have problems. For my rom I was going to replace the stock kernel with the custom built one but I think I will leave the stock one and have the kernel in OP#2. I know some ppl like to have to rock stability the stock kernel has but others want the bleeding edge. I am here to say that I can make both happy.

Also shortly I will be posting Build 6 and I have already swapped the kernel with the kernel I built yesterday Build 12222013. This one has working STweaks but I have not tested al settings using STweaks. The next build should fix the settings not sticking.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cyril279:
When jumping roms, or starting fresh, I flash them all together, and it consistently works as expected. I only wish that you could actually see the queue before flashing.

...of course with Omni, you could also place your extra flash zips into {internal storage}/OpenDelta/flashafterupdate and they will be automatically installed after the firmware is updated.

while building is it possible to change the defualt APN settings like for example all the straight talk apns are wrong on all the roms JB and KK i install would their be a way to reconfigure these settings maby in the code ? im sure it is possible ... but then i think like hmm if it was why wouldnt it already be changed ? here is my APN just for reference these work best for me

stAPN
APN... wap.tracfone
port.. 80
MMSC. http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS... Proxy mms2.tracfone.com
MMS port.. 80
MCC.. 310
MNC.. 410
APN type.. default,supl,mms

if its not their i left it blank

if its too much trouble to change ... i dont mind changing it every flash but its like if it could be changed that would be super awesome

Sorry guys to have dropped the ball like that. I am having to do all the work manually while I'm working ok creating my scripts. So I have to copy and paste manually and build modules manually and I have to manually copy the kernel and its contents to the rom zip then edit the updater script to push the zombie. You see where I'm going. I truly appreciate the lack of complaining about such issues and the resilience of the community to find the solution themselves. It makes me proud lol. As I said earlier, I will be leaving in the stock Kernel and package the custom Kernel separately. This will make things a lot easier for myself and make those that want the stock Kernel happy.
