[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Peppecarto:
my review

it's some days i'm using last slimrom build, and that's my own opinion (also since several italian users asked me how it is):

Rom is awesome :D It's smooth, fast and stable.

GAPPS: I flashed minimal slim gapps as from op.

Only "changes" i made are:

-added sys.keep_app_1=com.android.inputmethod.latin because in aosx thread someone said it will lock keyboard in memory and won't fc it. Anyway i don't really know it works or doesn't.

-set minfree values trought performance control app to very light preset

-set ro.sf.lcd_density to 240.

-as in op, i replaced dashclock to have it working

-stop.

I tried to switch to art runtime but apps where lagging opening and if where saved on sd they cannot be opened, so i reverted to dalvik and everything is fine. (also apps to sd as said in op)

I didn't delete anything nfc related stuff, also if maybe i will use 3 or 4 times.

About battery i will upload later a screenshot, but it's good, if u don't use wifi or 3g data i think u can reach 1 day and 12 h. During work's day i use wifi so i will report my feelings this week :)

Facebook:

I'm using also facebook app, i know it's a phone killer but if u just watch it sometimes it's not so bad, and with my light usage also back button was working, but, IT'S MY EXPERIENCE, i can't tell it will always work. (about fb, just yesterday night i had a reboot when i opened a video and tried to close it).

For who cares about fb, i think it's one of the few rom that allows you to integrate fb contacts with phone's contact :P

A thing i noticed is that using hangout instead stock sms app, u don't have the answer, call and mark as read options in sms notification.

Oh, and i also never had notification problem (someone sometimes says "i don't get notification for whatsapp, fb, blablabla...").

Performance imho are pretty the same of aosx, but slim features make it better :D

So, for me it's the best rom as far for sola :)

Regards

edit1: battery stats are stable for me!

edit2: gps location works very good, with 3g or wifi on get located in few seconds

edit3: battery usage in a day
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mstreibe:
Tried the new build and so far I'm very satisfied. A few things though:

- DashClock widget always fc's, doesn't work at all

- long tapping on location tile in quick settings doesn't open the location settings dialog

- status bar and other text (e.g. battery state in the lock screen) very small. Setting a bigger font under settings->display doesn't help. Can this be configured somewhere?

- Many home screen redraws, maybe I need to tune my freemem settings?

Can anyone point me to the performance control app that was mentioned? I couldn't find it in the play store.

And BTW I changed ro.config.low_ram=false because I want lockscreen widgets.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Peppecarto:
- For dashclock it's said in the op, you have to remove from system/app the apk and then reinstall from playstore, then it's work.

- about location you're right, but i don't know if it's a bug or a missing feature

- for the bar you can edit the build.prop and set ro.sf.lcd_density to 240.

- for home redraws try to change freemem, yes. I don't have such problem

edit:

- for performance control app there's the "strange and weyrd" search button... and you'll find it

- with low_ram = true i have dashclock widget too, so i left it to false as it was

hi have just installed this nice rom. one little problem. how i can use hardware button? i have also activated in hardware button menu but nothing changed

thank you
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] alwaysadeel:
if u mean the "use custom action for hardware button" in navigation settings. u can change default behaviour of buttons here.

if u meant physical buttons not working maybe this can help

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] walcom77:
thanks. i will try this fix!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mstreibe:
Thanks for all the hints. With density 240 everything was too large so I played a bit and found 200 a good setting for me.

About DashClock - sometimes reading helps :) I have it working know, but why does it need the location service when it allows me to specify my location? Now I pulled LockClock.apk from a CM11 ROM which does what I want. Would be nice if it was included in this ROM per default.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Peppecarto:
I think because if u don't specify (like me) it will try to get location, once it does i think it doesn't need it anymore, since i switched location off yesterday and i still get meteo information :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] GGT4LIFE:
Hey I was just wondering whats the best battery for the note 2 (tmobile/t889v) for best battery use, im currently using the dn3 but I can never get more than 10-12 hours out of my note 2 and I use it frequently, for things such as facebook, data/wifi and watching videos. Im currently on stock and tried devil kernel and that made it worse. If you guys have anything else that has worked for you please let me know.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] pvaldeben:
I'm on stock kernel that came with JediMasterX2 and get about 13.5 hours on a work day. When home all day and connected to WIFI I get about 16 +. I remember Jedi X19 giving me 16+ in a workday. Thanks was pre 4.3 roms.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jgkim:
Mk2 version of samsung official kies emergency mode successfully restored the firmware.

After rebooting, no battery and vibration is a recurring phenomenon. (bootloop)

However, the battery is fully charged state.

Also the recovery mode will be impossible.

The lack of a battery can be entered only in download mode.

custom recovery install disable , maybe bootloader lock

Failure is the board?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
Try using Odin instead of Kies and flash the mk2 tar file.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jgkim:
mk2 tar, restore tar , etc...

Odin may work through the same phenomenon.

After the reboot, but has no battery and vibration phenomena.

This should not go into recovery mode.
[Android Apps and Games] AggieDev:
Today I have released my latest app, Frequency. I'd love to get some feedback and suggestions about the app if I could!

Google Play link

Link to actual .apk

What is Frequency?

Frequency is my latest app that tracks your app usage, that way you can always know what apps you use, how much you use them, and when you use them. I initially made it because I wanted an easy solution to see which apps I no longer use and can then install, but this is only one of the uses you can have from this app.

What are the features?

Show how much you've used your apps today, in the past week, past month, past 3 months, past year, or all time

Either show only the apps that you have run, or show all installed apps

Easily hide apps that you don't want to display in the list

Change the app-tracking accuracy for the background process, that way you can choose more or less app tracking accuracy for more or less battery-consumpution

Runs in the background, don't worry about having to start the app

Ability to have the background process start at device boot-up, so that you don't have to start the app once for the background process to run

If I could get any suggestions that would be great!
[Android Apps and Games] ravian29:
Great app, i have a feature request. Can you please add number of opening for app? For example tapatalk opening 20 times in a day... Etc

[Android Apps and Games] Wh1t3Rose:
+1 for this feature
[Android Apps and Games] DumF0rGaming:
You can add an limiter, which would open a popup that I use some app too much

Battery Life

Anyone using this application experience any battery drainage. I want to use this, just might seem that this is a huge battery drainer since it's always running in the background. Thanks in advance. The app looks great and is a good idea.
[Android Apps and Games] Wh1t3Rose:
It's not a battery drain. Many Apps actually include what this app does like betterbatterystats. My guess is all this does is keep track of the number of alarms activated per app (I'm not a Dev :/)
[Android Apps and Games] abelmaster:
Also include a tab with "not used apps". Since I like to install all apps I see, I forget which are handy and which I never use. With your app this problem can easily be solved :)

C6603

4.3 .569

CWM

Doomkernel

Xposed
[Android Apps and Games] croldan72:
I believe that the app only displays those apps that you actively have open, while the display is on. Anyway to track apps that you also have actively running in the background?

2 examples that I have: When I'm in the car I have Waze and Torque always running. So I can get verbal directions and see my gauges in Torque. It only reports on one app, whichever is in focus.

Also, if listening to a book in Audible, or music in Pandora, unless the display is on, the app isn't tracking the time used unless the display is on, even if I'm listening to music via headphones or Bluetooth.
[Android Apps and Games] AggieDev:
Yep you got it! I use BetterBatteryStats to see how much battery it uses but you can also see through the Android stock battery usage Settings screen. At the default 30 seconds I would say it uses a reasonable amount of battery, but of course that is why I added in being able to change the accuracy.
[Android Apps and Games] squabbi:
Hey there! I've used this app for 2 days and I haven't noticed any significant battery drain. I have the HTC One so it probably varies from device and per use. :)
[Android Apps and Games] b_TeXteR_d:
I don't want to be rude to the dev, but there is already an app for it, called aptrax

I've been using it for a couple weeks, and it fully satisfies me

This app works fine on my XSola without any relevant battery drain: as a feature request, could it be possible to remove the uninstalled apps even from the No-Show List?

[Android Apps and Games] AggieDev:
Any uninstalled apps shouldn't show up on the app at all, do they for you?

Also I have already gotten starting working on the next release :) my first priority is making an app-opened counter among other things!
[Android Apps and Games] stiven68:
Yes: the uninstalled apps, that were in the list because I used them for a while, continue to appear after their removal (with a wrong icon).

[Android Apps and Games] AggieDev:
I will look into this, thank you!
[Android Apps and Games] Wh1t3Rose:
Good for you. It was still rude. Oh there are multiple apps for the same purpose. Just like there are multiple backup apps, multiple unit convertors, and multiple Data trackers. So your comment was unnecessary.

AggieDev, if you need translation for Polish - just PM me. Use getlocalization.com - it's a very good site for translating apps for various languages.

Can't get this to work and its mildly annoying. I can adb sideload ROMS and whatnot but need to boot into windows to get any real file transfers done.

Strange this is the only phone (tried lg g2, and gal nex) that I have an issue with.

in b4 no replies.
[Moto X Q&A] canezila:
I sympathize with you. Specific to your question I have no answer. Go to the Android website and it talks about Windows and Mac. No Linux.

BUT, I use wifi file transfer pro.... From play store. And also AirDroid. Gets it done through wifi on common network. And it's very fast for me. Hope that helps.
[Moto X Q&A] M@XLOL:
Ugh... I'll see if I can hack it together.

I was hoping a developer would stop by to enlighten me.

I don't have WiFi for the desktop it's always plugged in.

no dev here but i dual boot linux and win7 and i would recommend Google android MTP on linux and read and see what everyone says. i will be booting back into linux tomorrow and i will see what you need to do my self, but right now i have some clients idevices to work on and iTunes and most of my modding software is windows only

Doesn't have to be actually through wireless wifi to work. One of my computers is directly connected to the router. But if no router is used at all then it would not be an option for you

The easyest way is to do a hard reset

then after setting up WM5 tap the screen when it says (tap the screen to star useing you Device)

then soft reset before the customizeation starts (you get 3 seconds to do this)

Hey all, I'm new to the GS4 world. We moved carriers from Verizon to AT&T and I was given a GS4 that was set on Verizon.

I was able to use Safestrap and gain root however it stops there.

Honestly right now the recovery mode doesn't work and neither does LTE. It's of course well documented on the LTE item, I need a new load to enable that.

Hence why I'm here.

I've been used to Motorola and LG. My go to has been CM-X but when I attempted an install on this device it simply would not play nice.

There are so many iterations of this device. I hoped some guidance from the community would do well.

I have the MK2 build.

Any assistance would be great. I'm going to spend all of tonight searching through the forums of course but it's a rather unique setup.

A ROM on the MK2 that will work on AT&T.

Thanks to all who even read this. The community is what drives XDA to be the go to place. I hope to contribute more as I familiarize myself with this device.

APN type: default,supl,mms,hipri

APN Protocol: Leave it to the Default one

Bearer: leave it to the Default one

Use appquarantine or Titanium backup to freeze the verizon apps it will work well and all works even MMS

good luck

I've been happy for the most part with it. It's just the lack of LTE that points me at new ROMs
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] metaphz:
The i545 doesn't have the band to support AT&T LTE. Already been there and tried that. Also add "fota" to the APN type.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] justda:
Verizon got a nationwide license in the upper C block. That's what it's using to provide its 700 MHz spectrum. AT&T bought smaller licenses in the lower portion of the 700 MHz band. same band different blocks... At&t screwed the pooch here and made their handsets incompatible with anyone else in the 700 band.

Your really only loosing like 8Mbps anyway though...

So I was browsing 9Gag (which shouldn't have taken much ram). When I exited the app, I keep seeing that the Xperia Launcher being blank and the icons slowly appearing (as if it has restarted).

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omegahanggara:
This is related to JB 4.3 bug, the bug is system_server will spawn another pid, which make device getting slower because lack of memory. If your device isn't rooted you can simply restart your phone. If your device is rooted, simply run this command via terminal emulator (root access is needed)

for pids in $(busybox ps | grep system_server | grep Thread | busybox awk '{print $1}' | xargs); do kill -9 $pids; echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches; done

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Riyal:
It just kills the process but not fix the bug... You need to execute the script everytime you have low RAM. That's how it is suppose to be used.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omegahanggara:
It's bug from JB. It's about ROM itself. I think there's no solution to avoid this memory leak, unless we get an update from SONY. Anyway, I'll try to make automatic script which can control this bug by kill zombie process as soon as they spawned.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carllegendx:
oh now i get it, you have to run the script everytime oohh!! thanks everyone .

If you're partitioning your SD Card to use swap, backup all your files, delete all partitions using EaseUS Partition Manager (Windows, obviously). Then create the new partition with FAT32 filesystem.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] uberSkeptic:
Hi guys,

Every time my Sprint S3 power cycles, I lose the functionality to use PhotoSphere. I have no idea why. I've tried different recovery options, fixing permissions...nothing.

It explains why all of a sudden .zip that previously had worked for me stopped working, and why now I'm able to do it with the APK file.

Honestly, I'm OK with re-installing that APK every time I want to use PhotoSphere, but there's got to be a better fix than that! Any suggestions, ideas, avenues to explore &c would be much appreciated! Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] sloheim:
Do you mind sharing the APK that you used to get Photosphere?

The one or two that I've tried both have the functionality, but the "window" where I'm supposed to see the image being photosphered stays blank. I'm hoping I need a newer/better APK.

Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] uberSkeptic:
I can try - but I was pretty sure I posted a link to the thread in which its posted in your very photosphere thread asking for it - so check there if this doesn't work (my posting a link anyway). But here you go:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] sloheim:
Ahh... that was you that provided the link. Thanks for the help.

I did try using that APK, but like I said... for some reason the camera image never displays in the box. I see the box and the blue circle... just no image. I dont get it. I dont have problems with any other camera app.

Thanks anyways. Good luck finding a fix for your issues.
