[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Hermantje:
Hey folks!

I noticed there weren't (m)any videos of the Xperia S running KitKat on YouTube yet.

That's one thing I usually do before installing ROMs: checking YouTube to see what I'll be getting myself into.

Anyway, since no one's done it yet, I figured why wouldn't I do it for you?

So if you haven't installed this AOSP ROM yet because you don't know what you're getting, you can see in my video below:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZI_jd3qVFA

I hope you're okay with the video quality and the Dutch language on the phone. I haven't gotten into editing videos much yet, and I couldn't really get my camera farther away from my device. That, and it was one simple shot I took - no retries, no seperate videos, just one press of the record button (and a second one to stop, obviously). Anywho, if you have any comments on the video, be it about my editing skills or about the device, the ROM or whatever, I'll gladly answer any questions or do any requests (as long as they're reasonable).

Cheers! :fingers-crossed:

P.S. I'm not speaking / explaining in the video because I'm Dutch and I wouldn't want to annoy you with my horrible English pronunciation. And I don't have a microphone either ;)

P.P.S. If this video is good enough, I wouldn't mind if it was used for showing off the ROM c:

As [MENTION=3230319]YYvo[/MENTION] said, change launcher. I like this one.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Redstarr1:
Is setting DPI to 316 the only value you tried? Not 280 or 300? Need to do some experimenting, you probably got that value from the Nexus 4 thread? (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=47534465&postcount=8).

Actually GEL does support other grid sizes, on my Nexus 7 the launcher is 5x5 and it's the same installation file. So there should be some way to force it in 5x5. True there's no GUI option to just set the grid size, but I think saumil is aware.

Flash the kernel.zip from op this ROM is incompatible with any other kernel, wait for alpha 2 for a pre installed recovery
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] genecis:
I made a mistake sorry :(

It doesn't support recovery yet but it will be there in alpha 2.

This is 'pure AOSP' and that's why it doesn't have recovery or root.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nisu4717:
The one in OP....and try loop on first.and use daily driver in native.

Hi there,

I have an xperia s :

model: LT26i

android version: 4.1.2

base band: 8660-AAABQOLYM-314010-39

Kernel: 3.4.0+1.0.21100-313065-g1ccebb5-00193-gcbc50fc

build number:6.2.B.1.96

can I install this rom in it? If so, is it the usual procedure?

Root device, install rom manager (clock work i think it was called) boot in it and install the rom package?

Cheers!

Thanks in advance, sorry for the silly question. I've been out of the loop for a while now. :mad:

[Moto G General] Entropy512:
I disagree on conservative being worst for battery - It has provides spectacularly good results on the Xperia Z and Tablet Z, and also did so well on the find5 that it became the default in CM10.1. (Ondemand performed very poorly)

It really depends on how you tune it - if you're not careful you can bias it too aggressively towards increasing frequency. The biggest improvement possible for conservative is to reduce its polling rate - there are multiple ways of doing this, but in my opinion the best method is to port over some of the improvements that mainline Linux did to ondemand but forgot to put into conservative - This uses an approach known to have been accepted to mainline in the past and respects any hardware limits that might be in place.

https://github.com/omnirom/android_...mmit/25f442a23423a25bfd93912e9ed4909ed621b543 is one such example.

I'm a battery whore so I typically tune conservative aggressively towards saving battery - 90% up threshold and 40-60% down threshold.

Seriously, users should look into the various tuning parameters of their governors and understand what they do. 90% of the improvements possible by changing governor can be achieved with a combination of userspace tweaks and minor governor tuning tweaks (other than the above fix for conservative - conservative sucks without the above patch.) I don't know how many times a governor has been called "awesome" when it was no different from an existing governor other than different default tuning (Lionheart is a perfect example of this... It is 100% identical to conservative with the minimum polling interval hardcoded to 10ms and default up/down thresholds changed.)

Also, the primary historical features of smartass (screen on/off thresholds) are obsolete. You've been able to do this efficiently in userspace for ages. It made sense when the max speed of a CPU was 600 MHz and you needed to change limits as early as possible in the wakeup cycle, but these days you can get nearly all of the benefits of smartass by using SetCPU's profiles feature and setting different screen-off profiles. Google has even integrated this kind of functionality into Android with the Power HAL (warning: You might wind up finding your governor fighting the power HAL if the kernel author wasn't careful...)

(back in the day, my favorite configuration on the Galaxy S2 and Note was a screen-off max of 500 MHz, and a screen-on minimum of 500 MHz - this would greatly improve responsiveness with minimal battery impacts as the voltage for 500 MHz was only slightly higher than 200 MHz. On a device with even basic working cpuidle, you want to pay more attention to how voltage ramps with clock than the raw clock gate, since any modern ARM CPU can at a minimum clock-gate efficiently when idle. Deeper idle states powergate the CPU but these often get locked out in many cases, such as when more than one core is online with nearly any multicore device except the Snapdragon 800 and maybe the 600. Not sure about the quad-A7 400s.)

IDK which of the kernels has smartassv2 but if you want more governor options you could try pink, furnace or render kernels. They'll have smartass or smartass based governors.

I can't tap on the menu button and back button with the s-pen on GN2.

Is there a way to get the s-pen to take you back to the home screen ?

I read some thread (from 2011 and 2012) about "menu button" and "return button" of GN2 and I wanted to know if definitively it was impossible to use these two buttons with s-pen.

Today I'm on custom Rom Android 4.3 DN3.

For the moment I use "GMD Spen Control.apk" who is a good substitut.

Maybe There's a way to make these keys work with the s-pen

Your advice is welcome

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Tony556:
I have a Nexus 7 32gb LTE, and I have a few questions about it's battery life compared to the other N7 devices.

I used to have a 16GB WiFi, and the battery life is MUCH better than the LTE's, is it because of the radio and/or storage size? If so, is there a way to make it so it'll have the same life? As stupid as that sounds. Could disabling the radio help? As when I tried with the 4636v2 app, there wasn't much change. I run the newest CM (deb) nightly every day, and I'm about to flash 12-30-13.

Thanks in advance,

Tony Sesek
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] codemonkey98:
You should have similar battery life if you are running WiFi when you are in your house. 4G LTE consumes more battery than WiFi. So picture myself running a 4G LTE variant Nexus 7 2013 and keeping my data plan on constantly, obviously I will consume more battery than my WiFi tablet.

You could try to find a kernel that supports your ROM but I personally don't think there is much you can do at this point.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Tony556:
I would use ElementalX, but CM just flops over onto its back begging to be killed when you try it now.

If you could recommend me a good, energy-saving, kernal like ElementalX for CM11, I'd highly appreciate it.

Also a way to conserve more energy, as I don't even HAVE a data plan, I just keep the SIM in so I don't lose it. If I take it out, could that help? Maybe a combo of disabling the radio and taking out the chip.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] codemonkey98:
I wouldn't know any kernels for your device. I have a Nexus 7 2013 but I do not actually have it rooted. I know, what a shame, but I do like to have a stock tablet around. Especially one that is running vanilla Android.

The SIM shouldn't have any issues. It isn't doing anything, as it isn't activated. You could try disabling the LTE radio by using airplane mode and seeing if that helps. With the LTE radio off, there shouldn't be a difference in power consumption between a WiFi Nexus 7 2013 and a LTE one. You also could try disabling bluetooth and all sorts of miscellaneous options you do not use.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Tony556:
I have the same stuff activated as I did on my WiFi, WiFi, NFC, Location, and that's about it. The 4626 or whatever it was app seems to help, slightly. But now, another problem arises. It's charging unusually fast, my tablet. IDK if USB Fastcharge is somehow enabled or what, but it's suffering from what my phone has. As my Verizon Galaxy Nexus charges and drains quickly. Haven't disconnected the tablet from power yet to see if it really is draining even quicker. Updates soon.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] codemonkey98:
I have heard of the Nexus 7 draining faster than charging, but I have not heard about it charging as fast as it is draining. Have you tried doing this by any chance?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] daffie:
I'm not sure how much rooting & installing a custom rom on my N7 has affected battery life, as I did that immediately after getting the device (therefore no frame of reference).

Using Sinless 3.2.0 rom together with ElementalX kernel (CPU 1728, GPU 477, UV 850, DT2W) and my N7 has been pretty much completely in standby for 17 hours (at work and therefore no time to play :) ) with only 10% battery used (90% left). This is with Wifi, Sync, GPS always on.

Normal usage will use up approx 2% per hour of battery. Still pretty awesome in my book!

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Tony556:
I would use that, but it's not for LTE (deb).

For the last 2 days, I rarely used my tablet. But I binged it for up to an hour multiple times,Y and the battery drained wayyyy too fast. Screenshot of battery life soon
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Tony556:
As I don't even USE the radio, should I just get some of my money back and buy a 32GB WiFi? Is it thinner than the LTE? Can I flash flo roms onto a deb? Disable the radio entirely? And don't say use airplane mode, I hate that stupid icon, and I think that disables GPS.

EDIT: Can I just: "fastboot erase radio"? Or format. Sounds SOMEWHAT logical.

Hey guys,

I got myself a View Cover for my Note 3.

Now I've got a problem:

When completely opening the cover, so that the front view is on the back of my phone, the phone goes into the "cover is closed-mode", i got that square view and can go to camera and action-memos...

But i just wanted to use my phone normally,

Is it just me with that problem or has anyone the same problems?

phone is in "cover is closed-mode" when it's actually closed

phone is in normal mode when cover is opened

phone is in "cover is closed-mode" when it's flipped back completely

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kudosmog:
I've got the same problem. I stopped using the s-view case because of it.

Some people say there were some defective batches where this was an issue (magnet too strong?), and others say they don't have the issue at all.

If you have the option, try exchanging it for a different one and see if you get better results.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Gimik:
I had the same thing happen as well. I let the company know and they gave me a new case. Hasn't happened since.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] lift off:
Are you guys talking about genuine S-View covers?

Because I get that sometimes on my cover, but it is a cheap chinese knock-off, so I don't mind it at all - it rarely happens anyway.

But I wouldn't accept that on a genuine Samsung cover.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] derochs0:
I've tried another cover, too but the problem remained. I aswell am using some chinese knockoff, although it says samsung... But yeah, can someone tell me if the original view-cover got that problems?

Thanks for your replies!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Kawaisa:
Genuine Samsung s-view cover doesn't have this issue
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Comatose:
I've got a genuine cover and I don't have this problem at all.

If its a knock off, good chance the magnet in the front of the case is too strong. I've noticed if I put a magnet up to the bottom left of the phone, this will trick it into thinking the cover is closed. Similarly if its done from the back of the phone, if the magnet is too strong it will trigger the same. not sure if theres something you can place in the back cover of the case to shield it?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] derochs0:
First, thanks for your reply!

I will check if I can protect the back somehow.

But anyways, I am thinking of buying another view-cover because my phone won't recognize mine from time to time... Have to reattach it to get it back working.
