I installed all builds of dr87's roms the last 2-3 months and I cannot remeber a build in which I didn't have those reboots.

And it's quite strange that no reboots happen with CM11
[G2 Original Android Development] margaretiak:
Oh yes, my bad. Flashed the stock one. Forgot it handles SMS also.

Nvm, I added SMS apk to zip and just reflashed.

Thanks.
[G2 Original Android Development] buffal0b1ll:
You may want to use PA

FULL MODULAR PACKAGE

This package is similar to the Google Stock Package above except that it does NOT include Google Camera, Google Keyboard, Google Gallery², and will NOT remove your stock/AOSP Launcher, Keyboard, Browser, SMS App, or Pico TTS.

In addition, it also includes Google Bookmarks Sync. If you don't have a Nexus device and/or prefer to use the stock/AOSP apps, this package would be perfect for you.
[G2 Original Android Development] PieceOfCake:
Try reflashing the modem
[G2 Original Android Development] chrisexv6:
If you look at the PA Gapps post, there is an add-ons section.....they have a Google Services updater you can flash in recovery that should install the most up to date services package *for your device*, automatically.

The reason it needs updating after the first boot is that they use the last version from before Google started making the services somewhat-device-specific.

Ive used their add-on for every ROM since it was released and Ive never been prompted to update services after first boot.
[G2 Original Android Development] Gutsyslap1:
Wow thats a great idea because that seems to really slow down the restoring apps download. Ill have to do that next flash. Thanks for pointing that out.
[G2 Original Android Development] chrisexv6:
NP.

I did notice that as well....until I manually updated Google services, my download speeds were like 17kbps even with 3 bars of LTE. And that issue has gone away now that I can boot the ROM fresh and not need the update automatically.
[G2 Original Android Development] Gutsyslap1:
Yeah it takes forever otherwise and of course once you update google play services it puts it at the back of the line behind all the apps so its the last thing to be updated.

Can anyone recommend any other good and battery friendly kernel for this rom?
[G2 Original Android Development] Raagh:
Render kernel or aosp dorimamx. First i d recommend you to tweak interactive governor and stock kernel and see if that is enough for you

Here's something you can use as a reference to tweak interactive gov on stock.

Duplicate ringtones

Hi guys. I did a clean install of the 7/9 build on my D801, and I noticed that a few ringtones and notifications are listed twice. I went into system/media/audio/ringtones and there is ANDROMEDA.ogg and Andromeda.ogg listed. There are a few more like this. I used TWRP to wipe system, dalvik cache and cache and installed the ROM again (along with d801 patch and gapps) and same bug happens again. Any ideas why this is happening? Is it just a bug with the ROM itself?

[G2 Original Android Development] simon_lefisch:
Why are you posting about a G3 in a G2 thread? G3 has its own thread.
[G2 Original Android Development] xzero425x:
..because its a question about my G2 that I'm using right now, in a G2 thread, while I'm running this current ROM on my G2.

Also an easy question for advanced rooters.

I just wanna know if going from this ROM to a stock 4.4.2 ROM will cause probs ;(

My bad. Your post made it seem like you were asking about a G3. You're good. Just do a full wipe.
[G2 Original Android Development] varund7726:
White lines issue is patched in this ROM

Just don't reboot or flash when ur phone is hot (is above 50°C ) and you should be safe from black lines!

Hell if I flash or even reboot now I'm likely to get those lines :P

[G2 Original Android Development] strodda:
I know I've missed quite a bit since I havent updated since 24a & the 05/28 build. Other than the small hiccup about getting a GPS lock, the ROM has been great. Have there been any notable additions or changes that would make it worth updating? Im hesitant because it's running so smoothly and I don't wanna get into another wakelock, etc battle.

mahdi-709.zip

I downloaded mahdi-709.zip again just to be certain I did not have a corrupt file. When I view the file using ES Zip Viewer (comes with ES File Explorer), I can see the duplicate ringtones / notifications are in the original zip file! For example, go to system/media/audio/ringtones and you will see there is Andromeda.ogg and ANDROMEDA.ogg in the original zip file. Those are both the exact same ringtone. Please check and let me know.

Sometimes my screen stops responding and I have to reboot it to make it work. Only screen stops responding rest all things work normal. Like nav bar status bar.
[G2 Original Android Development] Giocarro:
If I remember correctly you can achieve the same result making Secure Settings trigger a Mahdi action: Configuration > Actions > Execute shortcut, etc etc.

I'm using this way in SlimKat because Expanded Desktop is not available there either.

[G2 Original Android Development] Gutsyslap1:
Yeah it sounds like it. Oh well, I love GEL.
[G2 Original Android Development] mor_1228:
Is this Gel u guys are taking about? What is xgels?

Does it eat more battery and ram than other launchers? My main concern is battery that's why I moved to aosp and left many stock roms for a better battery.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.launcher
[G2 Original Android Development] Gutsyslap1:
GEL is "the google experience launcher" or Google Now Launcher:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.launcher

XGELS is the Xposed module that allows you to modify just about everything you could ever want within GEL. A lot of the features that say a launcher like apex or nova youre able to have with XGELS.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.theknut.xposedgelsettings

As far as battery goes my sucks. But I literally spend all day long beating the piss out of it. 300-400+ exchange emails, streaming music at highest quality with no cache (why not, thats what unlimited data is for), and GPS all the time for work when I'm not in the office. But others have had incredible battery life without changing a thing with the kernal and just leaving it at stock settings so I know its just my usage.
[G2 Original Android Development] mor_1228:
thnkx for the tips i used to think only my battery sucks :p
[G2 Original Android Development] Gutsyslap1:
Yeah with my usage I'm lucky to crack 6-8 hours with 2 hours or so on screen time but I ave 70-100GB of a data on LTE/3G alone per month. Much less wifi.
[G2 Original Android Development] mor_1228:
i never got over 4 hours on screen time with any rom in this world. and people post 12 hours on screen time also :crying:
[G2 Original Android Development] ZeNiXxX:
when I turn Display to never turn off and do nothing with it, I will get about 6 hours to. But I'm always do something with my phone, facebook whatsapp gmail poweramp etc. and I have apps running in background so I reach a display-on-time about 4 h, too.

[G2 Original Android Development] bps119:
Okay, so I'm looking to clean house by erasing all files on my device and only restoring the items I really use. I've got all my files on an OTG stick mount USB, along with a backup of Mahdi that I'm currently running, and a couple other roms I switch between.

If I go into twrp, wipe cache, dalvik cache, data, system, and internal storage, then restore my Mahdi backup via OTG, it won't restore anything from my internal SD card (ex. Pictures, videos, etc), right?

Wiping internal storage in twrp won't touch the stick mount USB, will it?
[G2 Original Android Development] :
It shouldn't since the stick mount usb isn't part of the system.

I'm impressed, this is on 6/28 without any tweaks and using wifi only. Got around 6hrs sot.

By the way, how does the kernel tweaker work? There are check boxes (which are round) on the right that are unchecked. Does that mean the current applied setting is not active?

Thanks for the great ROM by the way dev.
[G2 Original Android Development] ZeNiXxX:
on 28.6 I have a much better battery life. I had a battery life between 20 and 25 hours. With 9.7 I have between 10 and 15.

Kernel tweaker: the first box is to set the settings and the second/ round box is for applying the settings on start.

Anyone having the issue where the phone is plugged in with USB and the phone will start charging and then stop, but the phone stays in 300mhz mode? It's been happening for about a week now, the only thing I could think that's changed how it's behaving is installing Greenify, but I removed it a few days ago. I'll wake up and the battery will be at < 70% because it wasn't charging while plugged into my PC, but thought it was I believe (hence staying at 300mhz).

I clean flashed 6/28 a couple weeks ago and just dirty flashed 7/09 tonight and it's doing the same thing. Also Kernel Tweaker wasn't in under Settings after the dirty flash, I installed it separately.

Also while wireless charging, it will think it's still charging after I take it off the charger or not even increase the battery % while it sits on the charger, but the battery circle rotates.

Do I need to dump battery stats or something? (I know that was needed years ago for a phone I had) Thank guys.
