Does anyone know if there's a way to display seconds in the clock on the right hand side of the notification/status bar? I have seen this in one other ROMs, but can this be enabled using Archidroid? For that matter, is it possible to add seconds to the clock on the lockscreen? I'm using the 3.1.3 experimental version.

Performance

Hi all and sorry for my bad english. I've a question. I installed version 3.1.2 on my S3, but I look that maybe the version 3.0 has best performance...It's true? I have some lags and crashes with 3.1.2. The version 3.0 has more fluidity, right? Thanks for answer.

Archi or anyone else,

I flashed 3.1.3 over 3.1.2 and now after a few seconds in the home screen the phone hangs and I have to reboot it.

Is it really necessary to factory-reset EVERY SINGLE TIME I install an update and reinstall & configure all apps? This is super tedious (setting up multiple accounts every single time I do an update) and I just want to figure out what is going on here. Archi, I donated multiple times already, please mate, be so kind and comment my questions.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustArchi:
I will comment.

If you want a ROM that doesn't change, then stay on your current system till your S3 dies and stop complaining.

If you want to update to get new features and improvements, then accept the fact that you can't dirty flash and get no issues.

No, there's no third way, unless you want to change the ROM.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] back2android:
Is it also necessary to clean flash while updating from 3.1.3 experimental to stable.

and btw Archi what was causing those soft reboots?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Behemoth1702:
Thanks for the comment. I understand that many people here are careless and don't even use the search -> overloaded, annoyed DEVs. But see, I was confused by this:

This basically tells me that if I come from an earlier major version (3.x<1) I need to wipe. Nowhere I expected that updating minor releases also requires a full wipe. This is understandable, right?

I really appreciate the rom, I have another question though:

Before updating to 3.1.3 I created an offline AND online nandroid backup via the latest CWM recovery/online nandroid update. Now I am unable to roll back, even after wiping & restoring via recovery the phone only bootloops/ boots into recovery. On previous CM releases I was able to rollback to a previous version via a nandroid backup. Is this expected behaviour?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustArchi:
I repeated that at least a hundred times, and I'll repeat it for the last time.

YOU DIRTY FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK.

FULL WIPE IS ALWAYS SUGGESTED WHEN FLASHING NEW VERSION.

DON'T EXPECT A BUGLESS EXPERIENCE IF YOU DIRTY FLASH OR USE TITANIUM BACKUP.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michalakisgr:
encryption unsuccessful - reset android

Hi,

i've been using Archidroid for about a month and i'm extremely happy with the performance.

Up until today everything was going perfect.

However, i was installing a game update from the play store and the phone battery was at 2%, so it died in the process of the installation.

When i entered another battery it booted the archidroid at the boot animation and then it showed the screen for updating apps and then "encryption unsuccessful, do a factory reset".

I did a few boots, wiped cache, etc. nothing worked.

So i clicked the "reset device" button and then it started doing a bootloop at the twrp boot screen. No way to enter twrp, only download mode, so i flashed clockworkmod recovery (flashing again twrp resulted in the same bootloop) and then the phone booted but after a factory reset, losing all the data on the internal sd card.

I don't know if that was an android issue, a game issue (bubble witch saga 2), a google play issue or an archidroid issue.... i just wanted to mention so that others can avoid the problem.

Alternative to Xposed volume mods

Hi,

I really want to upgrade to 3.1.3 but I use my phone primarily as an MP3 player and currently use the Xposed GravityBox volume modificationto increase the number of volume increments from 15 to 30. It's about the only thing (of any importance) I use Xposed for. With the non-availability of Xposed in 3.1.3 does anyone know of an alternative method to increase the number of available volume steps in Lollipop without using Xposed? I've found some guides (for example http://xdaforums.com/android/help/increase-volume-steps-lollipop-t3018810) but they refer to files that don't appear to exist when I look at framework.jar on Archidroid.

BUG/missing permissions? eth0 (USB->LAN) interface only usable as root since AD 3.1+

Hi JustArchi,

unfortunately the boeffla kernel with asix USB-LAN adapter module support cannot be choosen in the AROMA installer in Archidroid 3.1.x.

Therefore I flashed the boeffla kernel version 4.0-alpha11 after the Archidroid 3.1.2 (CM12.1) installation separately.

Everthing was working out of the box except the eth0 (USB->LAN) interface is only usable as root user in the "terminal".

When I try to ping my router "ping 192.168.1.1" or any internet IP I get a android connect "network is unreachable" .

The only IP-adrress I can ping as normal user is my own IP-adress of the eth0 interface (for expample 192.168.1.XX).

After login as root with the "

su

" command in the "terminal" I can ping the router IP and every internet IP (host names p.e. "google" cannot be pinged) .

Even disabling the iptables filters/firewall did not help.

By the way I tried a CM12-Rom "cm-12-WEEKLY-April-Fools-Edition-i9300.zip" with boeffla kernel version "3.1 stable -- Final" but I had the same problem. Maybe this BUG/missing permission is Android 5.x+ specific?

Because of this BUG/missing permission I had to switch back to AD3.02 (Android 4.4.4) including the stagefright :crying:

Thanks for your help

Installer Error (Status 7)

End at : Sun Aug 30 15:41:41 2015

Besides the fact that the time is exactly 7 hours behind my local time, the relevant part obviously is that for some reason /system is mounted as read-only. The usual fix for this I found is to run "mount -o rw,remount /system" via adb shell, which finishes without an error, but "mount" shows "/dev/block/mmcblk0p9 on /system type ext4 (ro,seclabel,relatime,user_xattr,barrier=1,data=ordered)" meaning /system is still read only. I am unsure how to fix this, as I didnt have problems flashing before. I reflashed the newest version of TWRP which changed nothing.

UPDATE: Okay I seemed to have fixed this somehow by some of the following steps:

1. Trying to restore old nandroid backup (this failing for some reason)

2. Installing SuperSU.zip

3. Trying to restore old nandroid backup (this failing again)

4. Restoring only system from backup which succeded and mounted /system properly

Now installing Archidroid works fine and "Flashing ArchidDroid Base" takes more than fraction of a second(as it should because it writes a lot of files) unlike in previous attempts(as seen in the log above).

I am not sure where to look to confirm this, but my guess is that for some reason (maybe lacking superSU, although I had a rootshell with adb) /system was read only, which led to "Flashing ArchiDroid base" silently failing, and the symlinking step then throwing errors.

Recent apps switcher is laggy

Good day,

I am experiencing the problem of laggy recent apps switcher. Firstly, when you are in some app, you press the home button and it takes forever before it closes. Then, if you press and hold the home button it takes forever to open the recent apps switcher. And then, when you kill the app it takes forever for it to close. The problem is pretty strange because at some period of time it is lagging, then - everything is perfect, then - again. When the recent apps switcher is lagging, the settings do as well. That is the only problem so far with the ArchiDroid 3.1.3 for me. Could you tell me what can be done as I haven't found any info about it yet.

Inactive buttons

Hi,

I'm runing AD 3.1.3 stable. I encounter two issues - in my opinion related to CM not the ROM itself, but I wonder whether anybody has experienced the same. The nature of them is quite alike. First of all I can't install standalone appk. When I run package installer I can't press "Install" button, couse it is not active. This happens when I try to install an application via F-Droid or any manually downloaded application. Anybody experienced that ? Any clue, how to install appk regardless system installer ?

The second issue consist in acceptance incapability too. When I'm in system settings: Settings -> Accessibility -> Services: here, I have couple of applications listed with "off" status: Nova Launcher, Tasker and Greenify. When I try to change status of any herein mentioned applications, confirmation windows pop-ups and... I can't press "OK" button. It's not active., again.. :-/. Any clues ?

But on sdcard the files can be found with file manager. I use Es file manager and in first tab it shows also only 1000 files for pictures and music files.

In AD 3.0.2 all files/folders are shown. Anyonelse else having this issue.

Already tried different apps to trigger media scanner but was not helpful. Is there a possibility to report this issue to CM? Searched the Web but was not sure how to report as S3 is not official maintained. Checked also other CM 12.1 related Roms and every has this issue.
