Updated ROM Version-8 with Aroma Installer

Hey guys....the faster ever KITKAT 4.4.2 Version-8 ROM : http://www.mediafire.com/download/pfc1x9sltw2cfln/cm-11-P500-Ver8.zip

MD5Key: ced745946d71582e25acdc753bb33877

Installation Process:

Upgrading from previous version: DON'T WIPE ANYTHING. Simply Go to CWMod 6.0.4.6 (link at OP Page) recovery and Install from SDcard or ADB sideload, Follow the Aroma Menu. Finish and Reboot device. Done!!! try to avoid heavy google and social media apps, if you have already installed those.

Now no need to clean/wipe or flash any apps in recovery. The ROM have everything.... :cowboy:

After successful boot, recreate mount script as EXT4 in Link2sd and reboot. After successful mount EXT4 and boot, open Link2SD and link all internal apps to data. Done!

(If getting zero storage space, Go to Link2sd, Go to Linked apps, select all and create links again.)

Upgrading from CM-10.2 or older / Fresh (First time) Installation: Now DON'T WIPE ANYTHING (Data/Factory reset, Wipe Cache partition, Dalvik Cache, Format System) everything have built in Aroma Installer. Simply flash through sdcard or adb sideload, Follow the Aroma Menu. Finish and Reboot device. Must select one app in "Music" and "Enhancement" section to avoid fastboot mode. Done!!!

Sprit FM settings: 1.Open Menu-> Settings-> Debug-> HCI Access and set it to "Bluedroid Shim".

2. Menu-> Settings-> Audio-> Method to "Digital Auto" and restarting Spirit. Reboot device to get the changes done!

Can this be flashed using TWRP? :)

[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] mukulsoni:
Please use CWMod 6.0.4.6 recovery only as mentioned on OP page. The new aroma installer is better installation process and have touch functions.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] xu3sno:
Ver8 file size is 183MB. So almost everything is included :). Will see it when downloading process finished.

Congrats to mukulsoni for the great work.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Dovidhalevi:
My linux box is smoked, using an old Debian live with no adb, too old to install android-tools package. So not playing with ROMs until I can either figure out how to fix my system or simply get a hold of an adb binary that will run. No room for all the jdk and sdk stuff.

Some questions on the Aroma version:

1. I place this on sdcard like any other ROM installation?

2. Can safely trim it (i.e, gallery, calendar, etc. already user apps, do not use browser, etc.)?

3. I install it using the CWM like any others or run something?

4. Does the aroma now replace CWM or simply run over it?

5. I have already installed as user apps most everything I want here, but if I were to install them from this zip, I would want to do that after link2sd is up and running and linking. Putting on /data/app before? Would make the data-space problem even worse.

6. I have not been able to figure out how to use/setup V6. Presets here?

7. Glad no longer requesting data-wipe which can cause more problems than it solves.

[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] miki.cis:
Hey, great job! Is the Data2EXT included?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] ruelericsapalaran:
Also want to ask if A2DP is working. :)
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Dovidhalevi:
That 12 meg is too big! Might get away with it if there is no PrebuildGmsCore.apk on /system/priv-apps. Might leave 4 meg free which is enough.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] mukulsoni:
Did you flash this one? Go to first page and install trimmed rom from here...:good:
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] simplicio11:
On system/ I've 15.02 MB free, btw G+ doesn't work on cm 10.1.6 (old installation) after 13 dec upgrade (before works fine).
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Opteronvoz:
Of course (It'd be really silly to flash another rom then come here to moan :P )

I flash the updated CM1-P500 in post #2

Am I missing anything here? Should I format my SD card FAT32? Or should I give it swap and ext4?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Syd_M:
The first post seems to indicate that WiFi tethering works, but it keeps giving me errors. Anyone else having problems with this?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] pochopsp:
i just installed the rom following your steps, but i'm in the same situation of Opteronvoz, the phone it's laggy and unresponsive, can't use it as primary device.

the problem is that i have only this device XD
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] lera3996:
Hey, just a question.

What about battery drain, is it like in JB 4.1.+? or worse or better?

Thanks for your attention.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] mukulsoni:
Thanks for finding the bug..:good:

Hey guys... I have just checked again this rom by flashing on my device and running smoothly. Please make a clean flash of ROM (format system (in mount and storage), wipe data/factory reset, wipe chache, clean dalvik (in advance menu). Also check the system space while booting or after successful boot (it should show 20.3MB free), this should be before flashing GAPPSLight. let me know if still facing problems.:highfive:

I found better than 4.1.:good:
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] jaibar:
Looks the same to me- WiFi drains the battery heavily, but if turned off while not needed then battery usage is normal.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] sam811:
considering this rom is still being developed, battery backup is fine. turn 3G on and its drains at a really high pace.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] mukulsoni:
One more bug: Not cleaning dalvik-cache on reboot, need to clean in Link2SD after boot.

I can't make "com.google.android.launcher" default launcher:(

I noticed "PLACEHOLDER TEXT: Google Search not found" when i click "Laucher"
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] mukulsoni:
check page 3 pls
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Syd_M:
You need to open Google Search app and enable Google Now. After that, you'll be able to set Google launcher as default.

[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Cagnulein:
Thanks guys, this rom works smoothly and without crashes. I have followed the instructions but I can't get my Google calendar account: I insert my username and password but it says that it can't connect to Google services. Gmail and Google now work both fine.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] mukulsoni:
Turn off GPS (Settings>Location), will get better battery backup.

Try to install from User-system-app, if not work, install from google play:good:
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Cagnulein:
Thanks it works like a charm!

2 questions:

1) art should works?

2) sometimes when I push the power button in order to turn off the screen, after 2 seconds the screen turns on.. Is a my phone issue?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] kingofthedeath:
After flashing rom and reboot, it said

"fastboot mode started

udc_start"

please help me :(
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] droidgeek99:
Please provide some more information about how you got here. What ROM were you coming from etc.

Do you have the ADB tools installed on your PC?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] angelgzg:
Same happened to me my

Old baseband fix.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] droidgeek99:
Well well, just tried to flash v8 and got the same problem. I did however get a prompt from CWM before I rebooted saying something along the lines of "Root may have been lost, do you want to re-install superuser?" I dismissed it and rebooted. Did either of you get this prompt?

Here's how to get out of fastboot mode:

1. Pull the battery

2. Boot into recovery with 3 key combo. (hold home+volume down+power)

3. Format /Cache /Data /System /boot & /sd-ext

4. Restore your Nandroid backup

I'll experiment more with this and see what happens.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] surajdhanuki:
Upgraded from previous version to Ver 8

Oh no!!!!!!

Installed with google launcher and other 2 apps i dont remember (which was included on the same screen in aroma installer). And getting android.phone FC,android.dialer FC,android.acore FC :crying:

Reflashed again without those 3 apps..Except for dialer and phone,everything else FCs..acore,messaging,hwa,gapps,framework,media etc..

Tried to recreate mount script in Link2SD..Gives error ESPOC(no space available on device) :crying:
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] <Russian_Mafia>:
ahaha

Fastboot hello!
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] arash998:
It's not working,

With Old BB patch WiFi problem happens and with New BB patch the phone dose not recognize SIM car.

Seem like I have to flash a stock ROM but I can't find any working download link.

Please help me to solve this issue.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] droidgeek99:
Version 8 Install results:

Flashing over Version 7, I get the following prompt after selecting reboot system in CWM.

Root access possibly lost. Fix?
THIS ACTION CAN NOT BE UNDONE.
-- No
-- Yes -- Fix root (/system/xbin/

Selecting 'No' resulted in fastboot mode

Selecting 'Yes' resulted in getting stuck during boot at the LG logo. I pulled the batter after 5mins.

I figured that 5 mins was excessively long. Correct me if I'm wrong about that though.

Flashing after a wipe. (Formatted /Cache /Data /System /boot & /sd-ext)

Received the same prompt as above.

Selecting 'No' resulted in getting stuck at LG logo. Again I pulled the battery after 5 mins.

Selecting 'Yes' resulted in fastboot mode.

I haven't gotten a successful boot of ver8 yet.

Any ideas [MENTION=5396524]mukulsoni[/MENTION]

For those of you stuck in fastboot mode just pull the battery and boot into recovery by press&holding Home+VolumeDown+Power. Then restore your last Nandroid Backup, or flash version 7.

I sent you a PM about it earlier. Please check, my solution should fix all your troubles.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] arash998:
Yes. Thanks. I sent you a reply. Do you see my message ?

It contains explanation and also my email address.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] droidgeek99:
How'd you get that far? Seems like the rest of us are stuck at flashing ver8. Please share how you got it to even install and boot, then I'll see if I have the same FC problem that you have.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] miki.cis:
Instagram finally working, lockscreen pin buttons fixed, everything faster and smoother + OmniSnitch added :highfive:

But when i try pressing the first two buttons in OmniSnitch for killing apps, OmniSnitch FCs, but regarding to this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2637388 it's the port bug.

---------- Post added at 09:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:32 PM ----------

I had to do clean install (with wiping) and everything went well :) The KitKat Launcher force closed for three times after the first boot, but then it worked great ;)
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] n8r:
I got the fast boot message, too: moving back to v7 for now.

I tried doing an upgrade from v7 and a clean wipe: both gave me the same result.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Dovidhalevi:
If I do try this, I think I will use the regular ROM from Jenkins and do it the way I usually do. Can't be any worse. Maybe use the SystemUI.apk from here (or simply edit build.prop). I have everything installed as user apps anyway, do not need the Aroma UI to install.

V6? It could be that it is the problem. I once used it (over ICS) and could not figure out what to select. I have some sysctl tweaks that are supposed to improve battery life (never noticed big difference, never benchmarked) to which I added some V6 type stuff and entropy items so stuff like seeder, crossbreeder, et al, is unnecessary. Have tasker load the sysctl when it starts up as my data/local/userinit.d scripts do not get executed on boot (SEliniux?). Might also check the out "H1 Hacker" app which sets up startup scripts for various tweaks.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] xu3sno:
Just simply flashed Ver8 over cm-11-20140215-NIGHTLY.

All seems works fine until error message appeared:

"Unfortunately process android.process. media has stopped", once Link2SD quick rebooted the system.

Just captured some screenshots before error occurred.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] surajdhanuki:
I really dont know why i did not get the same error as other ppl. :eek:

Zero data space evrytime.Link2SD functions are not working giving the error as ENSPOC(No space available on device) or wateva...I somehow managed to recreate mount scripts by uninstalling "google music" and "launcher". But many apps didnt appear in link2sd, so relinked all apps and rebooted again and again zero space error,tried all LINK2SD functions such as selecting all and linking, clearing dalvik cache, relinking dalvik cache..But relinking library files gives me 50MB free space but after every boot it becomes to zero again. tried this many times.

Now after relinking library files i selected all and relinked..now i have 79MB free space. But i dont wanna reboot again. :crying:

---------- Post added at 07:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:12 AM ----------

ILWT tools dont work. When clicked save or save and apply it says error occured when saving config file.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] droidgeek99:
Maybe [MENTION=5396524]mukulsoni[/MENTION] can shed some light on this for us. I hope so cause I was looking forward to version 8. Anyone think the aroma installer could be part of the problem?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] xu3sno:
Okay, after an error occurred regarding android. process.media, when just simply flashed ver8 over cm-11-20140215-NIGHTLY, tried to flash with clean install.

So, now all is seem working well, including Google Now Launcher :cool:

However, still missing Aroma, it's can't be installed, since I used CWM Touch Recovery (v5.0.27) by vivekkalady. Need update-binary-installer for old version of CWM Recovery to install aroma. Maybe mukulsoni or others can help me. Thanks.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] mukulsoni:
Sorry guys, I have very limited access of internet as i am traveling right now. Those getting root access error, it seems Rom did not flash properly and just formatted the system. Please match md5 hash key before flashing. Also please avoid heavy apps while upgrading versions. For those getting ENSPOC error, clean some data (Facebook etc) in settings> apps and selected desire app to clear data. Go to link 2sd and create link first of internal and then relink all linked apps. This Rom is far better than previous one if properly installed. I will keep posting reply once will get stable connection.

Edit: [MENTION=4708203]Dovidhalevi[/MENTION] : you can change some apps by modify system apps not affect aroma
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] surajdhanuki:
I did the same..Now the ROM is working properly but getting android.process.media error and no notifications or ringtone sounds.

And i'm afraid to reboot again cos if i reboot again it will be showing zero space and i have to clear some other data again and do all the link2SD process again.But i have already rebooted several times,and still getting the process.media error.

i have installed exactly as you said.Didnt wipe anything,just flash.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] xu3sno:
As I posted earlier, IMHO, the culprit android.process.media error is just flashing ver8 over current system. Once I flashed it with clean install, the error gone for good.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] surajdhanuki:
But clean install is too much of a headache..

Have to format and partition SD card,Have to backup all apps..then install it one by one..and setting up everything then making link2sd to work properly.... :(
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] surajdhanuki:
android.process.media is working now..Now everything is working well :)

I have no idea how,didnt reboot nothing.. I was just using my phone normally for sometime.

Ver 8 is sooo much fast and smooth. Thank you mukulsoni :)

mukulsoni just tell me should i reboot and check once whether it becomes zero space again?

I'm afraid to :P
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Kingsoft95:
,i have a problem ,is first time when i try this rom and i thing is very good ,but can someone help me, i dont see calls and message notofication number (how much calls or sms i missed)https://lh5.ggpht.com/tb4cpKNpJB9J-Ml9ApUeahKkWMIYcIorDSduKz-aBAKWPP6DVBW-zo_J_2ZkW8t9_Q=h900-rw like in this photo at message (sorry but i dont know english very well)
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Dovidhalevi:
Still have no computer with adb to try this, but from what I have seen here, possibilities for problems MAY be:

1. Too little system space. Trim the ROM. Install as much as can be as user apps and leave them. One can get along just fine with only a few megabytes here but too little and link2sd will not make its script.

2. Too little data space. Once link2sd can form its script and reboot, all the symlinked dexes need to fit back on data as the dalvik-cache is rebuilt. Too many? Boom! This is why I need that adb: During the reboot, I reestablished the symlinks using a script. Problem is avoided. (Alternative is to remove a bunch of big-dex apps and restore later). Need > 10 meg to get along until having link2sd relink everything.

3. Reinstalling what is already there. If one does not wipe data/factory reset, previous user apps linked to sdext are still there. Reinstalling them using the Aroma will uselessly eat up data space. Simply don't.

V6? Anyone using it? How did you set it up?
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Mr. Kaz:
Same happens each time I reboot my phone...All you need to do is uninstall some system apps and re-link apps using links2sd...I am on version 7 and will be updating to V8 soon..
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Jigsaff:
Fastboot mode while installing v8 (upgrade from v7 or clean install). MD5 is ok. :(
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] t2nekski12:
Flashed Successfully.

Well, hello. I've downloaded the Ver8.. I'm from Ver7 but I did a clean install.. Then followede the aroma installer but I didn't install those applications which were given except for the audio enhancements.. And it works perfectly for my opinion.. Didn't have a fastboot problem.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] mukulsoni:
You will not get again zero space on reboot, if get then check the internal apps in link2sd, there may be some apps to be move into sd extra, link them, done. Also note that for clean flash you don't need to format sdcard and recreate partition again or again for sd-ext. Once you create partition, will remain until you format sd card.

Dear open dialer (phone icon on desktop) you will find a clock symbol at the bottom left corner, click that you will get caller history and missed call detail.

I have already super trimmed the rom, have not removed srec folder and still one can get 6-10 mb of system space after installing everything. Dont need to setup V6, I have already created script on update script.

avoid custom apps like facebook viber whatsapp etc and check again with wipe option 2 in Aroma.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] serrao:
I tried this but... Fastboot again :/

Edit: i tried again and now sucessful boot... All is working, great update :D
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] F.B.8.:
very nice rom! version 7 is good but I'm experiencing fastboot mode too upgrating to V8, both with clean install and upgrade. this happens even disabling everything in aroma installer. maybe it's an aroma problem?

however, I've noticed that if you are experiencing lags without the sim card inserted, as the main post points out, you can just switch to airplane mode then the ROM will run fine.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] surajdhanuki:
Hey mukulsoni just a suggestion, can you add this to your next update? or maybe a flashable zip? :D

[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] rishabh22:
Is it safe to use updater script and binary from cm10.2 with this? I prefer using the old touch cwm.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Dovidhalevi:
I tried it! Wanted to see how V6 supercharged this ROM. Unfortunately, failed, got the fastboot.

Notes:

1. This is on the right track. This type of installation promises to make ROM flashing quick, foolproof and it is gorgeous! However, it must, MUST be 100%. First time success to first boot (try), at least.

2. Option to just wipe Dalvik cache.

3. Outside of clean installs, this is not the place to install user-apps. Will simply run out of data space quicker.

So, tried omni, just for laughs. No back key. Flashed superuser but still no root. So ... useless.

So, trying the nightly.

How might I get this ROMs V6 setup over the nightly.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] xu3sno:
No. You got Error7 when flashed cm-11 by using old touch cwm with updater script and binary updater from cm-10.2. I use cwm touch recovery 5.0.2.7 (vivekkalady), replaced script and binary with new one prepared by mukulsoni prior to flash ver8 and cm-11 (experimental or nightly) and so far error free.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] vj_dustin:
Wow this is some revolutionary stuff, to say the least.

I'm using a 4.1.2 SGS2, and I just got Kitkat on my P500! xD

Followed the instructions, everything worked perfectly.

It lagged like hell in the starting, but then switched the aeroplane mode on, and it has been smooth as butter since.

I hadn't inserted a SIM card, so most probably that is why it was lagging, not sure though.

So far so good!
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] miki.cis:
That would be totally awesome!

(I've already mentioned it, but it was somehow missed as there were some other problems going on. I would try it, but i'm not that skilled to make it a flashable zip.)
