[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TPD-21:
Therefore, I became curious about the feedback of yours, dude. So therefore I have to call you on this thread, so you can share how the success of the installation process from you. :D

PS:

By the way, I am now in a position to fly back, as supplied by the users who have successfully perform the installation of the latest release CM11 ROM, by NF. Because of this I just switching from another ROM, then I need to do:

1. Wipe Data / Factory Reset

2. Wipe Cache

3. Wipe Dalvik Cache

4. The Format system.

5. Install ROM

6. Install GAPPS package.

7. Boot n enjoy. (No rebooting, no more wasteful batteries, fast and smooth).

I did not overclock the processor, GPU only. But I use the current performance profile (JustArchi’s Optimizations V3). :D

Maybe in the next ROM update, I'm not going to do any wipe at all, and will see the results.

this definitely not true, cuz after 2 builds, this one finally boots art for me. But waited more than 10 minutes.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coffeecore:
Did the boot animation 10 min to complete or starting apps? Because I switched to ART and then I think I got a bootloop because it took pretty long...

Before installation of CM, I had installed Sami OS ROM.

I tried to install CM over Sami but something went wrong and phone soft-bricekd so I used Odin with stock ROM: XXLQE.

After flash stock ROM I did settings phone.

Next follow Macław instructions:

Next I installed mini GAPPS.

In March I installed new GAPPS from Aroma package, but only essential components - Core Apps.

Other Google, and not only, applications from GAPPS I installed from store.

Thereafter I didnt install GAPPS after update.

I dont use overclocking, deep sleep 3.

Of course, not all updates were equally successful. Sometimes better, sometimes worse.

Month ago I tried ART but it was disaster. :p

After 30 minutes start-up of phone, nothing could be done so I threw these trials. ;)

This is my whole story. :)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saintckk:
I glad to report the ART is working fine, waited ART complete at first re- boot at 5 min. Everything seem to work fine! Just the battery is draining fast. The battery stat shows android system uses more than the display. I just wonder how to check what component of the Android system eat up more battery than the display?

so now no reboots with no overclock and peg+sio config

but after locking the phone when i try to unlock the phone it doesnt unlock and takes several attempts to do so or sometimes freezes completely without lights on

any one facing this?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TPD-21:
Did not find the problem. Phone to lock automatically when the phone is dimmed. Then I press the power button to turn on the phone, then I unlock the phone and everything is fine.

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TPD-21:
I think you summed it up too early, dude. :angel: Because everything is fine, until this moment, isn't that like you mentioned above. Right now I don't find the rebooting randomly. and I also don't use overclock the CPU and GPU. Unless only use the Performance Profile. Honestly, the last release for me too affection to removed. :D But I don't blame the user. Because the talk is the user experience, not the experience of the device. :D :)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willi9070:
so for now after 24 hours no reboots today, and everything seems fine but on the negative side, battery seems to drain too quickly. and its not good at all as previous builds, when usage pattern remains constant as previous builds..

I think normal. If we turn on the flash is then light up, and if we turn off so he will stop. Does that mean?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willi9070:
it should glow up when video recording starts but it stays on when camcorder starts if turned on
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TPD-21:
Really? But I think probably from the developer giving the option. I mean, if the user record video during the day, then he could turn off the flash, but if at night or in a state of low light background, the flash must be turned on. I think so. :)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willi9070:
come on i think you got it wrong, when the flash is turned on it stays on right from the begginng even when recording is not done but without any bug it starts when you tap on record icon....bug here is flash stays on always
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TPD-21:
Mmmh .. I don't think so, dude. When I activate the camera feature (mode: the camera) flash: active. And can be disabled. Then when I switch to video mode, I get a flash light is not light up directly (still not activated). Then I switch on, the lights flash light up. Is that clear enough? That's the actual conditions. :)

Perhaps you should also ask this back to:

For me this ROM is almost unusable, to many issues.. Did all wipes and format /system.

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edukardo:
I read you and can't believe. I have no problem at all. You are unlucky. Mac wrote that you flash it from any recovery. Have you try to flash it from stock?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coffeecore:
Nope, because I always was unable to succesfully flash his ROM trough stock recovery, so I didn't want to do it again..
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TPD-21:
I think there are some methods that should be attempted in future releases. I think.

1. Methods of Valyum: and; (almost similar to my method).

Remarks:

Valyum said that he had just moved from another ROM. Then he said that ROM installation method like this:

I did something a little different (CWM recovery):1-wipe data/factory reset 2-format system in the mounts and storage submenu. 3-wipe dalvik cache.

2. Methods of [MENTION=5273792]darcik[/MENTION]

At Post 440, and 445.

3. Methods of Maclaw own. (without full wipe). Maybe.

4. Perhaps my own method. :D (But I have to do, because I just moved from another ROM yesterday) (refer to Methods Valyum).

5. And the last is the method of Senior [MENTION=2047451]R_a_z_v_a_n[/MENTION] I think. ;)

Perhaps i cant explain because of my english. I mean i'm a very lucky guy. It's not a matter of knowkedge, many times is a matter of luck. Cant understand why. Mac said any recovery and prefereable twrp. But i came from a dirty install with no issue. No explanation. You helped me many times, we are a team. Common buddy!

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TPD-21:
So essence of your explanation of the installation process is through TWRP. Well, I think it is very clear and can be used as a reference for users here. :) And I think you don't need to be concerned about other technical issues. Simply submit a simple method that you mentioned earlier. To me it is clear enough Sir. :) Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willi9070:
it neither a matter of knowledge nor a matter of luck its just that some bugs are present in the ROM and sometimes they come into notice to some because of the way they use the system and their other app installations and configurations. CM is never stable though major stuff work well but expecting everything to be fine with no errors or glitches forever is not justified.

flashing rom without full wipe when updating doesnt cause any problem, only when you move from one rom to another full wipe is required to avoid conflict with previous rom files etc.

so its only upto the rom part that cause your phone to show errors at times and run fine at times.

for example i was having lock-screen wallpaper crash earlier but now its fine i did nothing for it and also initially the rom felt very laggy and reboots were there but now with same default config everything is fine.

these were mine inferences , you may or may not agree with them but i believe we can always wait for another update to get the things the way we want and this is the way things work :)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edukardo:
I agree totally with you. Is a ROM matter. Even stock one

Enviado desde mi GT-I9070 mediante Tapatalk
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TPD-21:
Yes, I agree with you about it. So earlier I mean is I just want to know, which is more problematic roughly between:

1. When we want to install CM11 ROM by NF, where we are currently at Kitkat another ROM. (I think a full wipe still needed. Maybe with formatting system). or;

2. When we are still in the CM11 ROM by NF (without the need to perform a full wipe, just install the ROM + GAPPS). or;

3. When we are on CM11 ROM as belonging to the NF. (without wipe).

(Note: Don't rule out the possibility that the rom is installed is still problematic). That's it. :)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willi9070:
while updating full wipe is not required unless the dev has clearly specified to do so because of some major modifications or other reasons.

full wipe, /system format is always needed while moving to a different rom , in some cases it works if you dont do that but its always recommended to avoid any issues.

so if those two things are kept in mind , way of installation cannot be blamed as a cause of trouble...
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TPD-21:
As I mentioned before, right? Again, the user experience was the one who speaks not experience device. ;)

And one more thing. I need to test some of the possibilities mentioned above, to further convince myself. (without the others first). Because I do not want to mislead others. So let me alone the first test. :)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edukardo:
Dude, way of installation isn't cause of trouble, but what about the base? Install it over tc cm11 is the same than install over jb stock? Thats why i tryied to help to install directly over stock. What do you mean?

Enviado desde mi GT-I9070 mediante Tapatalk
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willi9070:
i am telling this according to my experience and its completely logical, i have been doing this since the beginning, and i had issues only when there was some problem with the ROM itself , flashing a custom rom is not a rocket science, only paying attention to dev's words and doing things right is all that you need. way of installation cam cause problems if you dont follow dev instructions, flash wrong version of gapps etc.and thats not related with wipes or anything like that..

so do test yourself , i am not saying anything new or controversial its the same thing every dev say or mention in the rom install instructions
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willi9070:
full wipe is needed when you do it over stock jelly bean because of different version and different rom altogether

and also over tc cm 11 if you flash maclaw cm 11 full wipe is recommended by tc so should be done to avoid issues and to easier bug isolation , you can find whose rom is causing trouble...
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TPD-21:
Yeah, the installation instructions of the developers that we have to follow. That is important. :) And if the instructions have been followed, then still find the problem. Then came some users are reporting that the ROM is not a problem then I would personally choose to sleep. :D
