Google Play Services

Not all processes under Google Play services are started by the Google Play Store. Some are messaging and location services started by apps such as Google Search, Maps, and Hangouts. I'm pretty sure I've also had the location services started by non-Google apps.

Therefore, you can probably freeze some, especially the location services, without having any effect on the Play Store.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dopiate:
agreed

I think you are correct.

I reset my battery monitor this morning and will look after I get a few days of stats to see what else runs and takes up battery that is basically useless in a music player.

Since I posted the original screen shots of what I had frozen I added Maps, the HTC Location Service and just this morning Google Play services. I forgot about the first two until your post.

These are the three processes I have frozen since in my original screenshots:

I would like to freeze anything Google that doesn't break the Play Store and GDrive. Not everyone would care about GDrive but I like the convenience of it. If you don't use it, it could probably be frozen too.

I'm usually the cause of any battery problems now if I forget to switch off WiFi or use the screen too much while creating new playlists :) .. screen timeout is a big deal if you are trying to squeeze every minute out of your battery.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean?

Thanks

Thanks dOpiate for sharing this. I have been using CM on my old SGS I9000 to serve as a music player (just keeping the airplane mode on all the time), but this goes even further. I'll have to try that!

I'm surprised there aren't more people coming to this thread, with the number of people who have an old Android phone and don't know what to do with it.

Keep up the good work!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dopiate:
Thanks I appreciate the feedback.

I think because this thread isn't device specific that it doesn't get that much traffic. And like you, I don't know what people are doing with all the old android devices they have. Just because it's not your phone anymore doesn't mean they are useless. They are very powerful computers that can be used for lots of things.

I actually used my 1st phone, the HTC Incredible 1, to replace my alarm clock. It was perfect, my alarm clock broke - I had the HTC Incredible in a drawer doing nothing so I set it up on my night stand as an alarm clock and I saved myself some $ and found a way to reuse the device.

As for the BAMP phone - I use it all the time - gym, car, work, data center, collocation, lol you get the point.

Soon I am going to have to part with my Galaxy Nexus as my primary phone but I can't wait to see how far I can take it as a media player only.

With the HTC Rezound I was stuck with what was an essentially cleaned up Verizon OTA update mod but the Nexus is CM 11 latest nightly! So much less bloat/trash to start with. I'll be doing a lot of trial and error on that one and will update this thread when/if I discover something new.

Thanks again and I hope this thread was helpful to you. If you learn anything new let me know and I'll add it here.

Hi and thanks for the tutorial.

Why ia android 4+ mandatory ? This kind of things can be done with gingerbread…

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dopiate:
I stated that specifically for my guide. The apps/settings I suggest don't all run on 3.x, that's the only reason.

I'm sure you could do the same things in gb but if your going by my guide (which will get an update very soon) you would need 4.x

The "idea" would certainly work in gingerbread.

I still use the HTC Rezound I created while writing this guide every day in my car and it still works great. Haven't noticed any battery life deterioration at all.

I did learn that every once in a while I have to enable WiFi or some of the apps no longer think they are licensed (Titanium, PowerAmp) -- but you need to make sure the Play Store isn't set to auto-update. Once it's working - don't let Google update any apps unless you want them updated otherwise you will end up with new Google apps you don't need/want.

I will make this guide more "current" very soon as I have another phone to do and I hope to use CM 4.4.4 as my base.

hey, is this thread still alive? i need some help in turning my Sony Ericsson Live With Walkman into a real music player with camera and video available as extra features..

now i succeed to throw away all the unwanted apps like maps, messaging or phone call..

one question, how to remove all quickpanel in CM11? i need it to stay clean or just disable the notification dropdown. ( no use if your device is a music player )

if it impossible to do so, do you have any recommendation about using third party notification center like iOS iNoty or else which eat a little amount of RAM?

Just wondering if there are any kernels that I can flash for kitkat roms. The rom I'm on atm has cpu oc abilitys but I was also wanting the gpu oced abit as well. I tried using kernel tuner but only the adreno series are only supported. Also if I have to flash to a jb rom for any kernel that supports gpu oc or has it pre oc then I will do that as well. But if any kitkat kernels are out there that I can flash then I'd rather do that. Thanks for any help.

Samsung Galaxy S5 teaser hints at new user interface

Samsung is teasing the upcoming Galaxy S5 in a new image that could be hinting at the incoming redesign of TouchWiz.

Speed, Outdoor, Curiosity, Fun, Social, Style, Privacy, Fitness and Life are the nine attributes that will characterize the Galaxy S5, according to Samsung. The device will be powered by the latest Exynos or Snapdragon processor, which should ensure Speed, while Privacy and Fitness are other attributes that Samsung has focused on in the past. The inclusion of Outdoor could be hinting at some form of elements resistance,*as some prior rumors suggested.

What’s interesting about this image is the design of the nine icons, which is flat and void of any embellishments.

A user interface that Samsung was said to be exploring showed a drastic departure from the skeuomorphism-heavy current incarnation of TouchWiz, but these icons are even more radically simplified. One other clue that Samsung is moving towards a flatter look for its interface is the Magazine UX it debuted on the*NotePRO*and*TabPRO*line at CES. The settings in the NotePRO’s notification dropdown in particular resemble the icons in this teaser. Several apps including*S Voice*and*S Health*expected to be preloaded on the Galaxy S5 have leaked in the past weeks, and they too received a flat, utilitarian overhaul.

Samsung*will launch the Galaxy S5 on Monday, February 24, in the first day of Mobile World Congress Barcelona 2014.

Do you like the direction that Samsung seems to be heading to with its UI design?

Calling all Ubuntu Guru's for help with bricked LGOG

Hey guys,

I'm using a version of Gnome called Nautilus 2.28.4 at a library.

Last night using my phone, I successfully rooted my LGOG E971 but what happened is I installed TWRP and got this error message:

Secure Booting Error

Cause Boot Certification verify

So now all morning I've been trying to install Heimdall. Problem is I believe the library has disabled any access to the Terminal.

On that note, I have zero knowledge of Gnome/Fedora/Ubuntu to begin with.

Any suggestions?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ohh_Trenton:
Yeah after i let it sit for a while and google was done syncing everything back, it was just a tad bit snappier. Over the long run tho, you should see the difference compared to deodex. but either one was running fine. TBH, im barely testing odex right now. Been running my deodexed for a week.

Edit: After running it this morning, Odex so far is definitely snappy. Good news for me because I got scared for a moment.

Yes, im a huge fan of WWE. Theyre actually taping Smackdown literally right down the street from my house tonight in Ontario. I think im going to invade it so I can get my "YES" on. I need to be in the front row tho. Anywhere else is a waste of time to me.

This is correct. Its not enabled by default. Multi-window is. But if you want halo, the xposed module is included

Thank you guys. I was going for the EclipseROM type of look and feel, which if he hadn't stopped developing for the Note 2, that would be my default rom everyday and i wouldn't be making roms. But with Beans going in with Alliance Customization now, I felt a pure aosp rom was needed now for people like me. Im currently looking at ways to make this faster so any input is appreciated.

Will definitely give this a go tonight. Been wanting to try aosp and this is the best of both worlds

downloading update. the 1st version is the best ROM I think Ive used on this phone, prefer the black whit vs black blue but most can be changed. I think I do like AOSP slightly better but this has the better reception(only noticable in low service areas, which I live in) and better camera that TW offers and those win big for me. AOSP features/look on a stable as heck TW rom is almost perfection. Thanks for the awesome work.

PS Trent I was a noob to wanam but got my colors working. Didn't realize there was an on switch for each setting smh. Excited to try the update!

Well I added in a bug so I can stay on the first page... jk The less builds = The less bugs right? well I read your responses and I am glad to release build 2 to you all. Borndroid, thank you for the hand! This was my private build for about two weeks and after I tried out newer roms that were released recently, they were not to my liking at all and came right back to this. This is by far my best work, more so than AllianceROM.

I used to be a big fan of a ton of customization in a custom rom since the original Droid. I grew out of that and most roms today are just way too bloated with customizations for me & that's why I decided to create TrentsRom.. Ultimately, I just wanted a "Simple" rom. I wanted an AOSP theme touchwiz rom where everything works but looks pure android but also fast, smooth, and simple almost like an AOSP rom. Nothing is slowed down.. Like Eclipse rom back on 4.1.1 by nitro. Besides, Xposed has a TON of customization options as it is.

Thank you [MENTION=4512766]audiophizile[/MENTION]. Glad you got it working and I hope build 2 is to your satisfaction.

This all started with your original post about it being too quiet in here so thank you

Alright everyone, build 2 is up in the OP. Odex and Deodex. Feel free to make mirrors, alternate themes, and mods for it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] audiophizile:

This has NOTHING to do with your ROM, as I'm sure it's perfection... but your host prompted my phone like it had viruses, etc when trying to download the rom. Would you consider AndroidFileHost or something without spam/malware in the future? Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] audiophizile:
Click to close it. I'm fine with clicking one extra button to get good dl speeds and have it be cheaper for him :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ohh_Trenton:
Should work on both. I took out the .odex files from the toggle zips and they worked fine for odex. Let me know
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] audiophizile:
Will do. I didnt notice a huge difference between odex and deodex with the last build but am going to start with odex on this one again. Will report back.

Odex is supposed to be a bit snappier. It optimizes apps on each boot while deodex doesnt. I dont mind the optimizing at each boot if it means it'll be a bit snappier and I havent had any problems. In terms of which is better I think that's more of a personal choice.
