Hint: After first boot, fix the wallpaper by long press on home screen> wallpaper> select wallpaper. Done

PS: After downloading the ROM through OTA, it will show option to wipe Cache and Data. Just deselect the both option and then it will automatically reboot into recovery, open the Aroma Installer, follow the process and DONE!!!

Now it is not mandatory to select apps from each category in Aroma. Also note that this ROM have inbuilt Link2SD and AD2Sdx mount script for SD-EXT, which makes first boot more longer than usual as its flashes all apps first and then move to script. So please have some patient on first boot and get the sweet result. Read more: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=50945513&postcount=1015

This ROM have already included mini GApps, no need to flash separately.

Installation Process:

Upgrading from previous version: In Aroma Menu, Select Wipe Option 1 to upgrade the version. Must select the same previous running SD-EXT script and Avoid those apps, which you have already installed in previous version. Finish and Reboot device. Done!!!

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 FIRST. Done!

(If getting zero storage space, Read this http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=50935781&postcount=1004)

Fresh (First time) Installation /Upgrading from CM-10.2 or older: 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 and Select Wipe Option 2 for clean flash, select desired SD-Ext script Finish and Reboot device. 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!

3. For Audio streaming, follow this: http://xdaforums.com/show...97&postcount=4

You can fix by manually cleaning/wiping data through cwm recovery before flashing through aroma installer.

OK, reinstalled, the error seems to be gone but I have not go online with the phone yet, so will see later.

Looks good, previous error may be caused by linking google play store and google play service to SD card.

Now everything is working fine. The ROM is super smooth(Hope it stays like this). Thanks [MENTION=5396524]mukulsoni[/MENTION] :angel:

v11 update problems

I tried to update from v10.3 to v11 and encountered following problems:

OTA-Download does not work: it is canceled after start immediately and displays MD5-mismatch message

Hence I downloaded directly (checked MD5) and installed it via recovery (Update-Option 1, kept Link2SD as sdext script, added Dalvik-Cache, have choosen New Camera (as I did in update to 10.3), and selected DSP and Apollo.)

After recreating Mount-Scripts "google play service stopped working" message appeared frequently. I could resolve this by cleaning its cache via its apps settings (Settings -> Apps ....)

Phone seems to be slightly slower than with 10.3 (I did not change my performance settings: 245:729, SmartassV2, CFQ, I don't use SD-Swap)

Although I can view and edit a picture via the camera application - which I thought is using the gallery - opening the gallery directly and trying to choose one of 2 listed gallery folders FC the app.

So I switched back to 10.3 which provides better performance and gallery stability, at least in my case.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] apvm:
Same error with gallery here, I use quickpic here instead. Did not notice any slowness with phone though. I found it faster than 10.1, never tried 10.3 so no comment.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] malfatti:
Hello!

Thank you dev, for all the awesome work!

For me, there is no difference in the speed. I'm using the same performance settings that I was using in 10.1, and everything is running fine.

The only problems I got was Link2Sd (had to uninstall it and reinstall from google play) and gallery FC.

Thank's again for sharing this wonderful rom!
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] mukulsoni:
OTA is working again. Just checked the new camera app, Gallery FC exist however old camera with Gallery working fine. would suggest to use old camera until it fix, will release a patch for this.

[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] chalo99:
Last time I tried to use was a problem with the SU binary. I don't use it because it makes a wrong way to get "premium" app, so the developers can't get credit for it. Specially the developers of "developers" and advanced app like root browser, link2sd, etc.

Hey guys, I'm running ver 10.3 since a lot, and it was all ok, but suddenly, this night, my battery drained and the cell phone turned off. I charged all night and today morning I turned it on. But it became VERY laggy, it's like the UI is laggy and slow, an uncommon slow. Tried rebooting, but nothing It's sill laggy, in the menu, switching between screens, opening apps, etc

Any help here? I'm thinking of upgrade it tomorrow to ver 11 via OTA.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] apvm:
Reinstalled ver11 again without Spirit FM and New style camera. Gallery and Bluetooth now works fine. Everything is nice and smooth.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] ruelericsapalaran:
Has anyone tried using Link2SD plus in this rom? Will it help a lot in terms of performance?

Disclaimer: If this is an OT, I apologize.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] jaibar:
I am using link2sd. Seems to work, what more can I say?

Link2sd has nothing to do with helping in performance. It allows one to "move" applications to SD card, thus allowing to install more apps on a device with limited memory like the p500.

Haven't checked, but I'm quite sure an app on SD card will probably take longer to load, compared to internal memory. But if that's the price for being able to install more apps- so be it...
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] ujilraj:
Tried to upgrade & install the plus version, but unfortunately it's not working for some strange reasons [invalid package error]
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Kingsoft95:
P.S: after a few restarts ota works ok .....and i have a wonderful battery life i thing is improved with 150% if is not a bug ( all day with some calls and i lost only 6 %...all apps off and without bt and wifi and mobile data )
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] ruelericsapalaran:
Just to clarify, are you using the plus version or just the free one? With regard to performance, what I meant is that since Link2sd moves applications to SD card, it eventually free up space which in my observation if internal memory has more, I noticed that my device is not lagging.

So since the plus version can now transfer all data to SD card, I think it would help free up space more thus increases speed and performance. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] anhsmile:
Getting error with Link2SD. It says package invalid.:(

I using Link2SD v3.4.5
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] ujilraj:
It won't increase speed but intead it can reduce the performance of the phone by a small margin (negligible most times), as it takes more time to read data from SD card than frm internal memory... The advantage of using Plus version is tht, it can free up more space from internal memory & thus allowing u to install more & more apps.

[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] MagusWRM:
Link2SD seems to loose apps while Dalvik2Cache script change it to cache.

It's my third time formating and only now, without Dalvik2Cache, the things are working good.

Great ROM, you are the elixir of life for our device ;)
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] Dovidhalevi:
First off, speak up loud and clear: This is an international community and Linux (and Android) are fully international. More than a few of us regularly use non-Latin fonts and languages. The minimal space savings removing those fonts is ridiculous. The change should be reverted.

Now, simply copy the fonts off older ROMs and push them to /system/fonts/. User-installed keyboard dictionaries for the languages should still be there. I do not have or use the stock KB but that did get too large and the dictionaries were taken out a while back--other KBs store them as user apps or data.
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] omidreza:
i don't need dictionaries. i just need my language fonts. so i will push fonts from previous roms and tell you. it's a pity that the new rom does not have the other languages.

For now best ROM for OO

I installed this ROM two days ago and till now it is perfect. All is smooth and new features in android 4.4, nice, nice ...

Cannot test battery because I am still doing someting on it. But it seems OK. It will not be like before (3-4 days) but two days will be OK for me. Will send more info later.

But anyway some small issues:

- enable WiFi tethering, disable WiFi tethering, shutdown after some time

- ART changed back to Dalvik after restart so no idea if it works - is it supported by this ROM? OK, it is not compiled for this ROM

BIG THANKS to all which crated this ROM

CM-11.0.0-RC6 is Out

Ready to download full or OTA :)

http://download.androidarmv6.org/_builds/p500/stable/
[Optimus One, P500 Android Development] xu3sno:
Installed RC6 over RC5 through CM Updater. After downloaded, touched the update notification and TWRP 2.7 did the rest automagically :good: , no wipe cache, no wipe data :cool:

System:

New feature : theme choser, so no need HKTheme Manager module in Xposed frame works.

Local fonts (Armenian, Georgian and Hebrew) are available (again) in /system/fonts.

In order to have plenty of space in /data (internal), build.prop was edited dalvik.vm.dexopt-data-only=0 and qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 script added to have soft buttons on navigation bar, so no need to press hard keys. :cool:

Internal memory (/data):

The mentioned script above moved system@*.dex to /cache, hence, got more space in /data. However, system@*.dex which already resided in /data/dalvik-cache in first reboot, must be deleted manually to gained that space after second reboot.

Link2SD (version 3.4.6):

As usual mount warning notification and no space left appeared after system rebooted. Need works around to make it works properly (see internal memory above), recreated mount script, reboot system, and relink dexes.

Battery:

Can't say much about that. It's depend on the user behavior and age of the battery. From my short experience using this latest rom, battery (using it since 2010) lost ca 1% per hour in standby mode (2g, without sync any data) :good:

System UI;

Fast and smooth as usual, even user apps running from /data/sdext2. I'm using Class 10 SDCard.

To boost performance, Settings > Developer options > Drawing > window, transition, animation and animator duration scale set to 0.5x

Issues:

As mentioned in Change logs (Settings > About phone). One I noticed, portable WiFi hotspot works, but once it turns off, after quite a while, system reboot itself, as usual :(

Hope [MENTION=5396524]mukulsoni[/MENTION] will develop ver 12 (or directly jump to ver13 :)) based on this RC5, hence it will have more rich features, especially power button menu when clock in the status bar is tapped :cool: Thanks.

Hello,

first of all, great Rom, smooth and working.

But there is a problem.

I´ve flashed the Rom from OP. With light Gapps.

First of all I startet with flashing the ROM then Reboot and then flashing the Gapps and Viber Patch.

The Problem is I don´t see any Google Play or any other Google App.

This Kamera Patch can´t be installed too. (But I guess that is not a big problem)

Well I wiped everything again, and Installed everything above together without any reboot between.

Now I still dont see any GApps, and additionally the Home Button does not work and the Screen don´t get locked after pressing the Powerbutton.

(Regarding the Home-Button Problem, I know this problem from some other previous Rom´s, the solution was to flash the Rom first -reboot- and then the GApps, I don´t understand the problem there but obviously it works)
