[MENTION=698346]teemo[/MENTION] just flashed 5.9 + the fix. Didn't forget to flash boot.img.

Some problems I'm noticing: I had the charging light just turn on and it didn't turn off until reboot solved it. Location is working worse than before. On previous 5.8 build I had a small blue circle just next to my location. Now I get a big blue circle covering a very large area.
[HTC One X] teemo:
If you are gaming, then I am sure you can get more speed. CM kernel is good, but it is not optimised for speed. I don't play games on my HOX, so I am not the best to answer. You should read in audahadis kernel thread and the aicp thread, they have some talk about kernels.

I don't care much about benchmarks, but to give you an idea, the fast kernels give a score in antutu of about 17000+, where I get around 15000. More is better. Tuning the graphics chip may also help.

Demanding games will definitely run better with another kernel.

For daily use I don't need more speed, I just want the system to be fluid.

Location: big round circle mean that you get the position from the radio towers (3g).

Small circle is from wifi or GPS.

I have not seen the wifi position working for a long time now.
[HTC One X] tijuanacartel:
Here's a screenshot from inside a mall in NZ. Note the x on gps status in the top left, that means no gps signal.

Wifi location is working, but it comes and goes.
[HTC One X] vbaros:
I'm completely on the same page with you. I don't care about benchmarks at all (those bionic patches threads are funny to read though ☺). Fluidity and stability of the system is what's important to me.

I understand the blue circles, I wanted to explain the problem how I see it.

5.8 was the first custom ROM I flashed ever on my One X. The weird thing is that WiFi location was working from beginning and always, without breaking ever. It just showed my location a little bit off my building while my nexus 7 still shows me directly in my building.

Now that I flashed 5.9 + fix it stopped working (stopped using Wi-Fi location completely). Also text to speech engine is crashing where it didn't before when I enter Maps.

Also when I choose Take bug report it does nothing unfortunately.
[HTC One X] Iwarsson:
Finally sober again, and a couple of hours before fotball and Formula 1... :angel:

Here is my report of 5.9 with fix. [MENTION=698346]teemo[/MENTION]

Had no hickups at all with network (3g or wifi) but signal seems less strong. Gps is working just fine used it several times but no longer than 10 minutes at a time.

The only thing I can think of is that it is not as smooth in scrolling internet or menus as before fix. Again, thank you for letting all of us experience this good ROM! :good:
[HTC One X] teemo:
Okay you are back with the living, good to hear. I don't care much about soccer these days, but I do cross my fingers for Kevin, doing a great job today till now.
[HTC One X] teemo:
Could it be simply because maps will remember the last known good position?

I think location services has that option.

Oh yes, I almost forgot. This wifi location flaw has nothing to do with my builds. They are caused by the new google location services.

If you still use old gapps with old services, then all is good (except google will push you to install the new ones).
[HTC One X] Iwarsson:
He did! I really hope that Ericsson will continue in F1 next season. And hopefully in a better team/car...
[HTC One X] M@c|-|oR:
Great that you made through this celebration!

Good to have you back.

:) :good:
[HTC One X] tijuanacartel:
No, it was taken from inside the mall with no view to sky.

And by the way,

I do not believe it is the case with location it is either yours or Google services fault. On the one side we have you working hard to keep HOX alive, and working on a pile of hacks that is turtles all the way down. on the other side google working to make location service better and more battery friendly so more people enable it. Since hox officially died on jelly bean google are only testing on nexus 7 for tegra devices and don't know about problems on hox.

[HTC One X] GreekPilot:
Good morning. Firstly I flashed only rom, without reflashing gapps. Google play stopped message every 3 minutes. After reflashing gapps everything works fine. Thank you [MENTION=698346]teemo[/MENTION].
[HTC One X] Iwarsson:
Good morning GreekPilot. :) I think this is in most cases a precaution:

"6)

Reboot to recovery.

Clear/wipe data. (You can skip this step if you flash over Slim 3.X)

Flash ROM

Flash gapps (flashing ROM will wipe the system)

Reboot"

But it takes just one minute extra, I will join you in 5.95 in 12 minutes... ;)

[MENTION=698346]teemo[/MENTION] http://slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/dlsearch/viewcategory/1251-addons/downloads Do you know if this is anything good, or should we stay away from Gapps beta?
[HTC One X] vbaros:
I just did some comparison with 5.95 and latest gapps (Slim_AIO_gapps.4.4.3.build.5.8-60.zip)

and the 5.95 rom contains Music.apk and LatinIME.apk which will overwrite the ones currently in system/app folder with versions from the rom.

Also it will overwrite these 2 libs in the system/lib folder: libwebrtc_audio_preprocessing.so and libWVphoneAPI.so

Maybe that caused the crashing?
[HTC One X] GreekPilot:
Well, I thought that flashing gapps was not mandatory, but I guess I was wrong.

By the way, it seems drink helped you. You are revitalized!
[HTC One X] teemo:
Flashing a new SlimRoms rom will always wipe system and with that, gapps. This is in the install script.

Just flash gapps again and all should be running.
[HTC One X] vbaros:
It makes sense now :)
[HTC One X] M@c|-|oR:
Thanks, mate.

Slim Roms calls this one 5.10. Why did you decide to name it 5.95? Is it 5.9 with net fix, or 5.10 without something :) ?
[HTC One X] thom@s:
It might be v5.9 + network fix (?)

Hum... not sure of that since Android 4.4.4 is embeded !
[HTC One X] M@c|-|oR:
That's the reason I asked. They (Slim) show 4.4.4 in the changelog for 5.10 :confused:

As long as it butters my phone's performance I don't really care :laugh:

I asked just out of curiousity :o
[HTC One X] mnurolcay:
Anyone tried Beta Gapps(http://slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/dlsearch/viewcategory/1251-addons/downloads/dlsearch) with build 4.95 ? Is there any problem
[HTC One X] teemo:
Hehe no I never change the version. It is done here: https://github.com/SlimRoms/vendor_slim/commits/kk4.4/config

Click "update to 4.4.4" for the magic number :)
[HTC One X] M@c|-|oR:
I see :)

You might have skipped this one, as far as I am concerned ;)
[HTC One X] tijuanacartel:
No problems here dirty flashing 5.95.

My charger appears to have died overnight. Was at 20% when I got home yesterday and 9% when I got up. That's about 12 hours. Very very good standby battery life!
[HTC One X] teemo:
Right :) But I wanted to upload a fully working package, so people don't have to flash zips and kernels from everywhere. One zip to rule your HOX!

Most exciting stuff at Slims is upcoming official support for good old HTC Sensation (Pyramid). Thats a good sign. Congrats and well done [MENTION=2709464]dexter93[/MENTION]

So i made the mistake of enabling art on my phone. Cpu went to 100% on all 4 cores, and the phone got so hot i think it damaged my lcd! there is now a yellowish mark on the lcd when displaying a white background. Temperature was as highas 86%c that i saw but its now falling.

Just something to be aware when enabling art - dont have 150 apps installed!!!
[HTC One X] Flaxe:
From what I know, ART is not implemented in this ROM. I hope your phone is alright but just wanted to say that you shouldn't try to even use ART on this ROM because it won't work.

And ART is not really that much better than Dalvik, if it even is better. It needs a lot of improvements before it will be worth to use it instead of Dalvik.
[HTC One X] teemo:
Damn, very sorry for that. I hopeit will go away when cold.

I put a warning on post 2.
[HTC One X] M@c|-|oR:
I'm afraid it won't go away. :(

Last year my phone got hot for some unknown reason, the strain appeared on top right corner and it's still there. :(

I kind of "hide" it by using always dark wallpapers ;)

I'm using ART on my TF201 running slimkat (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2657847), strange it doesn't work on this rom/phone combo even though they have the same CPU.
[HTC One X] Flaxe:
Hm.. I might be wrong, but if I remember correctly ART is not working in this ROM.

Anyway, I still wish the best for [MENTION=3201493]tijuanacartel[/MENTION].

Yellow spot on screen

I have that yellow spot, or not really a spot anymore as it is 1/3 of the screen height long.

It is more visible when the phone gets hotter (while playing Boom Beach or Clash of Clans) and on white screen.
[HTC One X] vbaros:
That seems to be the glue. People were reporting it from the start.

I also have them but only if I look really close up the screen on the bright white background.

They should fade away a little bit if you stop playing games for a while :)

Here is the thread form Q&A:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1601836
[HTC One X] M@c|-|oR:
It is glue between digitizer and cover glass, I think. Since I have my HOX for over two years now, I can tell it used to fade, but now there is a spot of some 3mm in diameter that is not going away.

With SlimKat on my phone I can live with the spot :)
[HTC One X] thom@s:
I installed v5.95 + boot.img (+ format /system) a few minutes ago : everything running smooth so far, but had many errors on first boot (android.media multi crash !!!)
[HTC One X] Husky34:
guys, try This maybe can help you :) Sorry for the OP ;)
[HTC One X] teemo:
AFAIK all the other HOX ROMs work well with ART. Only this ROM had problems with it, but read on below...

Right, but that was previous version(s).

Dalvik or ART ?

.

.

.

Well, I tried ART again on 5.95 and to my surprise, it works.

It took 11 to 12 minutes to boot and then a few minutes to settle.

Max CPU temperature 79°C

Max Local temperature 62°C (Don't know what this is)

If you always wanted to give ART a try, but were afraid of the temperature, then do this:

Make a backup in recovery (don't skip this).

If using Xposed, uninstall or disable it.

Go to Developer settings. Make sure it is enabled and that Root access = "Apps and ADB".

Connect to PC and make sure adb works "adb devices" should show your serial.

In developer settings, change from Dalvik to ART and let it reboot.

On your pc, after the reboot, type

Windows:

adb shell su 0 cat /proc/kmsg | findstr local

Linux:

adb shell su 0 cat /proc/kmsg | grep local

Now watch the temperature the next 10-15 minutes.

If it get too hot, press power and vol-down until you are in bootloader. Go to recovery and restore.

Good luck.
[HTC One X] Iwarsson:
ART, risky business... Please report if it is worth it.
[HTC One X] teemo:
Did you have it on charger when booting with ART ? Charging will raise temperature a lot.

Risky

Yes, to some extend, but not more than gaming. Everything fun tend to be risky, but does it hold us back :D ?

If it get too hot, stop it.

Worth it

:angel:Short answer: No.

:good:Medium: Don't know yet. There are reports of slightly better battery life, but for now, I don't think we gain much.

:laugh:Long term: For the future however, I just need to test it - next Android, may not run without it. So definitely: Yes.
[HTC One X] Iwarsson:
Good answer. :good: I know everything fun is risky, eh I mean I heard about it... :angel: ;)

Well we will probably know about "Long term" soon https://www.google.com/events/io

4.4.4 beta or 4.4.3

Hey teemo, thanks for the great work with the rom! I'm currently facing a problem. Yesterday I flashed 5.95 and minimal gapps 4.4.3 and it keeps bugging me with "update Google play services" whenever I open snapchat, also I keep getting 2 notifications to update Google cloud print and another Google app. I checked on the store and neither needed update. Another thing, on the slimsizer feature I can't seem to find the apk for GEL and Google search to uninstall. Any ideas? :D

GEL, I guess this is what is called GoogleHome ?

Also, the printer can be disabled in settings.

Kill all - scroll down to 12 January.

[HTC One X] yossi2010:
thank you for the advice but unfortunately it didnt work.

used your kernel(xp build) on cm11 boots fine performance is the same i guess but when i installed xposed the same as usual all crash and black screen i will try the ep5 kernel now.
[HTC One X] teemo:
Did you try reboot ?
[HTC One X] drivenby:
Hey teemo, I understand Android manages it's own memory but sometimes it does a poor job at it.

Some games in particular feel smoother when all memory is clear.

Kill all is a useful feature in Low ram devices such as the hox, IMHO.

I understand it probably leads to higher battery drain but that's something the user would have to consider.
[HTC One X] teemo:
Policy is now changed to let zygote access data files in stead of changing the label af the data files.

Added policy:

local zygote.te:

# Write to app data.
allow zygote app_data_file:dir rw_dir_perms;
allow zygote app_data_file:file create_file_perms;

test policy:

$ sesearch -A -s zygote -t app_data_file 0208-app_data/sepolicy
Found 2 semantic av rules:
allow zygote app_data_file : file { ioctl read write create getattr setattr lock append unlink link rename open } ;
allow zygote app_data_file : dir { ioctl read write getattr add_name remove_name search open } ;

Anyone concerned about security risk, please download the latest file and reflash. Read instructions in OP.

The new file has 2 boot options. One (normal) for security and one for playing with xposed.

Again thanks to Lloir for pointing out this risk. Many of us store banking information and other personal stuff on our device.

slimkat is a great rom...but still some thing can be added to it..:)

yeah as one of the user commented above, kill all is essential...atleast it's needed to close all the opened apps at once, we are not gonna use it often...:) :) anyways no problem...I have used the gravitybox xposed module to bring Kill All Button in...:) :) it works fine...Slimkat team should check that too..:)

Btw, I missed the official Halo features in slimkat...yeah, halo does a lot of job...I'm not comfortable to use pie, but halo is an amazing feature to consider..

As of now, I'm using Floating notifications, which is a best replacement of Halo..:) :) so if anyone is looking for Halo...go for Floating notifications..:) :)

the rom is smooth, thanks for xposed module compatibility...:) :) amazing work...

Echo bug

Hi guys, around exist only two ROMs that are features full and smooth, Slim and Beanstalk, but both ROMs has echo bug for me - devs are you using something similar(same repos etc.)? What should I try to get rid of this bug?

Thanks.
[HTC One X] teemo:
Yes we all use the base from HTC. The problem is, that HTC did not deliver a manual, so dev's need to figure out how the components are put together. Truth is, that Thömy and other are doing a great job here, considering the limited support they are given.

We can all help out by giving detailed and reliable reports. It's difficult, because we all have our preferences and mix kernels and ROMs as we please.

How do you experience Echo? With or without speaker on ? Do YOU hear echo, only the other end or maybe both? What did you try to stop it... etc etc :)

Logs are helpful in many situations ;)
[HTC One X] AkFatherof4nCounting:

@ teemo thank you for nice explanation.

I'm using only stock kernels and I haven't been hearing any echo, only other side complain. I never used speaker on. Every time I uninstall DSP Manager and Voice Dialer (the only two apps related to sound IMHO). Today I tried it with DSP Manager installed, but echo is still there. Now I'm on Carbon because i use my phone for work, so I'll try catch log on the next build.

Thanks.
[HTC One X] Iwarsson:
Just curious, if you enable ART once will the phone boot that way after each new flash? Or is this something that needs to be done after each new flash?
[HTC One X] M@c|-|oR:
ART recompiles all installed applications in order to optimize loading and start.

If you (like me) have 167 apps, it takes a while, and requires a lot of system resources.

With every new flash you erase Dalvik partition so - yes - it would happen every time.
[HTC One X] teemo:
One boot for optimizing only, then the next boot will be normal. Same as on Dalvik, only optimizing takes longer.

So last night I took the plunge into this awesome ROM, but after wiping everything in TWRP I realised I forgot to put the rom zip onto the phone.

Oops, so I tried adb push but noticed it didn't work with TWRP 2.7.1.0. Had to flash official TWRP 2.6.x.x to be able to use adb while in TWRP, once the zips were transferred I reflashed 2.7.1.0 on top then the rom. Also the mount option didn't work either.

Anyone else experience that with TWRP 2.7.1.0 on the HOX?
[HTC One X] tijuanacartel:
An update on the wifi location. During the course of some work I am doing that requires me to look http traffic generated from my phone, I captured a request to www.googleapis.com/userlocation/v1/reports that is apparently an update generated by my phone to the google Location History service. The key bits of this are that it sends a batch of latitudes and longitudes that it thinks it has been along with info on how it got them. Within the batch, there is an apiMetadata dictionary, this dictionary can include a locationStatus dictionary, within which is a cellstatus and wifistatus key.

The values for the wifistatus keys my phone has sent are always either "invalidScan" or "timedOutOnScan".

Values for the cellstatus scan are either "successful" or "inProgress".

So yep, something has gone bung on wifi location.
[HTC One X] okle100:
I am using TWRP as my main recovery for the HoX. I am using 2.7.0.0 and I don't have any problems with it. I usually forget to copy zips or advanced wipe the SD card too, and the mount option works fine so no need to side-load or anything, just go to mount and then USB mount.

hi, this rom is very stable. Just one (very) small problem.:o

once a day, i loose the localisation(GPS) and have to swotich ON/OFF the localisation.

if i use GPS Status app, i got a fix very quickly, but one a day, no fix at all.

Works fine after switchnig ON/OFF localisation.

here are the logs before switching.

i don't know if that could help.:confused:
[HTC One X] teemo:
Usually it is Windows drivers that are "broken". Windows think it knows better than you, but it is wrong. There is a small guide in OP.

Sometimes it helps to connect to PC AFTER you mount in recovery. Some good folks reported that it can take 30sec for PC to connect after mounted.

For adb to work, you will have to mount /system in recoverys mount manager. adb is active (check with "adb devices"), but you cannot use any commands until you mount /system.

Yep, we do something different that most other - just need to find exactly what it is. Will take a look at it ^ ^ thanks.

Do you have this?

http://gerrit.dirtyunicorns.com/#/c/3327/

Checked our source and we have it. Maybe this explains why location services via wifi are fine for us.
[HTC One X] teemo:
It might be related to this:

F/ProcessStats( 565): android.util.Log$TerribleFailure: ProcessState dead: name=com.android.systemui pkg=com.android.keyguard uid=10008 common.name=com.android.systemui

Also, there is lots of warnings following this:

(15817): Failed to find provider info for com.facebook.katana.provider.AttributionIdProvider

There are many other errors and warnings, but I would start with getting rid of the first one, the "systemui", it should not fail like that.

Did you restore anything from system with TB?

I have not seen so many logs, but anything starting with "F/" followed by a system component, thats a bad sign.

If you can, start with a clean install and slowly restore your apps.

Something has messed up the system.

does anybody else have problems with very inaccurate gps? google maps and all other programs like messenger are showing my location aprox. 2000m away from me...I tried to turn off gps so phone will use wifi network only to locate my position but same thing happened, 2000m away from my exact position...that wasn't happening on 4.2.2 roms
[HTC One X] mhulsegge:
Read back a bit, it's been there for a bit of time now.

It's not really the GPS itself that's at fault, however if it tries to use it combined (or only with) Wifi, then it screws up significantly.

So, if you disable wifi, how's the location coming then ?
[HTC One X] Domac5:
when I disable wifi location is correct...it takes about 30s to lock gps and show my location
[HTC One X] mhulsegge:
In that case, it's not just you, it's pretty much all of us if I'm not mistaking. I know Teemo is looking into it, but it's not an easy one. Also, there are more roms that have the same issue.
