Flashed the yours from OP.

Maybe try another one?

EDIT: We checked google.com/contacts and there are only the few contacts in phone.

So it looks that the old stock ROM was so f*cked, that it even didn't synced them. Then the new ROM synced the few contacts which was on SD card.

So probably not a bug in this ROM, sorry for the mistake :silly:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ilgeor:
Hi!

Undoubtedly, your ROM is a cool thing)

Yet can you actually enrich your 'about' section? As All I can guess from it now - you've used some chipset optimisation

*well, the thing is, I want to decide wherer it brings some important updates to flinny's\nevergone's 133 ROM, but I can't see it from your changelog

Sincerely yours
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] HTCDreamOn:
Glad you sorted it :) and thanks for trying those gapps, I just modified the standard one from goo.im but hadn't tested thoroughly: they should all stay between flashes though

All change logs and features are on github, just click on the links under "changelog": this makes the OP cleaner and easier to read and means it takes ~no work to update

To everyone: PA 3.69 is coming. Probably.

So it's an extended version of NeverGone's CM 10.1 build? Awesome :)

Got a few questions:

- What about overclocking? I mean is it possible to O/C to 1.5 GHz and is there a "dyninteractive" governor?

- Is loop device function present in the kernel?

- Is there any performance/stability boost compared to NeverGone's latest build?

Thanks for any help :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] OriginalGabriel:
The CPU frequency runs from a min of 245MHz (wouldn't recommend less than 368MHz) to 2016MHz (wouldn't recommend that high, at all).

In addition to dyninteractive, it includes interactive, conservative, ondemand, userspace, powersave, and performance governors.

I'm assuming loop device is present as I was able to ping 127.0.0.1 from terminal (not sure how else to test that).

As far as differences between NeverGone's #133 build and this, you'd have to look at the commits but, seeing as how this ROM is more recent (by a year!), it's most likely going to be more stable, and faster. Also, this ROM is CM 10.1 while NeverGone's is CM10.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] hrk:
loop device means /dev/loopN, where you can mount a local file as a block device, thus "faking" an hard disk (or usb drive) out of a file. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_device
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] HTCDreamOn:
You can see all the governors and OC I've added on my GitHub, but yes all that stuff is there.

Thanks for the info :) and yes this is supported, running Linux with chroot on a loop device should work fine.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sactownsav:
Is there another link? Google Drive states that you've met your available quota

Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kamild_:
Had a NeverGone's CM 10.1 and made a clean install of yours (I was messing with some system files and Linux installers which made me do a clean install - just in case). Everything seems to work perfectly fine, thanks :)

What value do you overclocked processor? I overclocked to 1,2 GHz, but battery was very drain.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] HTCDreamOn:
Oh :mad: that's annoying, it says it's due to all the traffic, but I can always start uploading it elsewhere if it doesn't go back to normal like it says. Anyone else is free to make a mirror though.

Thanks a lot :) I hope you enjoy it

I use 245MHz - 1.4GHz and my battery lasts for days, I'm using an Ankers 1600mAh but it's quite old now. There are apps which can check for wakelocks and the like if that's the problem.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] firered365:
Please do. I can't seem access it. :crying::crying:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Rubenos:
This seems like a great rom replacement for the stock rom. I want to flash this on my moms Z. Good idea?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Kéno40:
Yes it is, but is your phone rooted?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fireball0093:
A little under 18MB for gapps? I'm impressed :p I'm currently downloading, I'll flash it here once it's done. I'm currently running Flinny's CM10.1, but I'm excited to give something.. fresh in a sense, a try. I'll give my feedback edited in this post after messing with it for a little bit ^.^

*Edit*

So it's a pretty decently smooth a fast build, some of the problems I've come across is using hangouts along with gesture typing completely crashed the phone both times I tried so I had to pull the battery. I got a display problem one reboot, and every once in a while it'll randomly do a hot restart. Other than those minor occurrences, I haven't had any other problems
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Econosto:
:thumbup:

I realy like this build before i ran cm9 but i had a lot of radio problems.

I finaly got it working and then my phone was slow as i don't know what.

So i started browsing xda and i found this build.

Well i can tell you everything i have tested so far works, even the radio worked right out of the box i say awesome and i am following this build now.

Keep up the good work
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] magikstar:
installed and worked very good but this rom doesn't have sim card support. [MENTION=4693882]HTCDreamOn[/MENTION] ca you make some change to sim card access please?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Kéno40:
Sorry but what do you call Sim Card access? Are you sure it's not a config APN problem?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] magikstar:
card access to read it or to import it, i didn't use google account to manager contacts,i need sim card access
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arunal_123:
So you mean to say, you cant access, import contacts from sim. Am I right?

Sorry havent flashed this rom yet. But already downloaded.

And I dont think there should be this problem.

I'll just check it out and let you know.

Thanks...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] magikstar:
yes i can't manage my sim card contact but it'i the same with several custom rom
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arunal_123:
I have flashed this ROM just now. Everything is great so far. Fast and smooth.

Even I can see my contacts on my sim.

I can easily import my contacts from sim.

This is not a ROM problem.

Have you tried opening your people app (contacts)? There you will have the option to import from sim.

Hope this helps.

Thanks...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] magikstar:
will try with other sim card to see if it work without adding google account

i have reflashed the rom but still the same with other sim card

the phone can read sim card is it because it's a french sim card?

ihave tested with coolos rom and all works

all builds of CM can't read sim card
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fireball0093:
I must say as well, aside from the small minor quirks I mentioned in my previous post on here, that once in a blue moon I'll flash a Touchwiz launcher just to mix things up a bit, and this is the only 4.2.x rom that the weather widget has worked on. :p
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] OriginalGabriel:
Launch People/Contacts, hit the menu key, and import from there.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] magikstar:
it doesn't work, no contacts to import from sim card

This rom is great :D

Thanks :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] skui:
Niiiiice rom, it works very well for me and it remains fast after hours of usage.. Tnx dreamon! :)

I just can't find any menu about performance settings, but it could be me and my dumbiness of course :D where can i find it?

I'm also wondering about trying this rom with your alterndromadus kernel.. any suggestions?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] OriginalGabriel:
You need to enable developer settings to access performance; Menu/Settings/About phone and then tap Build number repeatedly until it prompts to enable developer options.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] HTCDreamOn:
See [MENTION=3179851]OriginalGabriel[/MENTION] 's post for your first Q, and this basically already has an "AlterNdromadus" kernel bit I updated it a few days ago so I'd recommend running with the latest R11. I've cherry picked quite a few things from the Andromadus_4.4 branch and I think it works quite well, I'll add back Lionheart when I have time for an R11.1.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Benik3:
We have a problem...

Today CM installed some update. After this update mobile didn't boot anymore.

In recovery it says, that it can't access system partition.

Also I can't format system partition. Look on the screen shoot.

Any suggestion? :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] HTCDreamOn:
[MENTION=4488156]Benik3[/MENTION] can you please clarify what "some update" means? Sorry but I have no idea what you're talking about, I need more info. You shouldn't be receiving any CM updates anyway.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Benik3:
It's not my phone, but my friend said, that it installed system update.

So It was probably update from CM...

The question is, how to format system back :/
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] HTCDreamOn:
Full wipe and reflash
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Benik3:
But how?

As I said, recovery give error and don't format system.

Reflash doesn't work...

Tomorrow I will try to use ADB or fastboot for format, hope that it will work...

I made also wiping script, I will try to "flash" them via recovery...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] demkantor:
Boot to bootloader, choose image CRC, write down all from this screen here

(It may take 10min)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Benik3:
Here are the CRC...

I also found, that I'm not able to connect via fastboot through bootloader. It didn't work already before this. It says unknown HW in windows and I'm not able to install any drivers on it.

Under ROM it worked...

Phone is S-OFFed by guide on CM wiki...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] demkantor:
You're looking good, but I suggest we continue this conversation in another thread (send me link to it) or via pm (thread preferred) as this doesn't appear to have anything to do with this ROM

As helpful as HTCDreamOn is, I'm sure he would like to keep this thread on topic

For now, get the appropriate drivers from that cm thread used to root, unistall current drivers and I stall these, if you need help doing that let me know in your new thread (or go to general section, you will find a q&a FAQ thread with loads of info and if you ask there many are watching that thread and willing to help = fastest results)

when i try to flash the ROM with TWRP 2.6.3.0 it says

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] demkantor:
That's probably an issue with twrp, I haven't had a chance to get all the bugs out of it. If you want to keep tarp just remove the getprop line from the updater script at it will work or I would just stick with the latest 4ext recovery, everything works as it should with that
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sigibian:
yes in fact seems doesn't depend by the rom, i also tried to flash another rom and still same error.

So i done how you suggested and the flash gone fine, thanks! :good:

Heartbleed?

Hi, I suppose CM uses OpenSSL, doesn't it? Has this ROM been updated with a fixed version since the heartbleed vulnerabily has been made public?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arunal_123:
I guess this is one of those Roms with which i have stayed for long.

And this is definitely the first CM rom im sticking with.

Since kitkat is still under development, this Rom is ofcourse a good choice with Android 4.2.2

Here are a few things i have done with the rom.

-removed launcher2, trebucket launcher, cm filemanager, cm walpapers

-flashed TW Launcher from galaxy S4.

-installed Mixplore in /system/app

-Touch Wiz5.0 theme for theme chooser.

-removed apollo music player

-flashed walkman with clear (+) from xperia Z1(much much better than stock music player).

-completely odexed the rom for good performance.

And basically im just loving this rom. Thanks to HTCDreamOn.

Sorry, i dont have the links for the themes, walkman and launchers right now.

Here are a few screenshots.

This rom is so beautiful now.

The only thing about all CM roms are the poor picture quality in Camera.

They are so dull.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fireball0093:
[MENTION=4877406]arunal_123[/MENTION] Touchwiz launcher and theme eh? Seems our tastes line up almost exactly when it comes to 4.x roms :p which version of the s4 launcher out there do you use? I'm only asking since I know there are several
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arunal_123:
TouchWiz 4.1.1

I guess TW launchers are lighter than other stock launchers. As i have found Xperia Z launcher also lags than TW.

And definitely, i used to be a sense lover.

But this rom being so much customizable plus stable made me to halt for a while.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] seb1435:
Hi everybody ! Love this rom, it's very stable! I've changed stock email & exchange with those from kitkat, working like a charm.

I've just noticed that no icon is showing up in upper bar when a headset is plugged in. Do you have this behavior too?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arunal_123:
Ya.... I have observed it just now. The headset icon doesn't show up....
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ttamirt:
it's a keeper

Great stable ROM for my "old" vision. I'm gonna stick with it for a while. And try to strip it down as suggested above :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arunal_123:
I know this post relates to applications and themes thread.

But still I would like to post for those who might want to try this awesome rom with extra flavour, because i got some couple of PMs.

If OP or Moderators have any objections for anything, I completely welcome their point and would delete this post instantly.

Please bear in mind these are not my work, im just forwarding the link.

Thanks everyone for discussing and contributing but I'm really sorry for the lack of support, I've got exams in a few weeks so am spending as much time away from XDA as possible. Hopefully in the summer I'll find some time to get some interesting features in, I know the first release wasn't that exciting so I've got some ideas but just hang on in there if you were expecting anything new any time soon.

No rotation, No accelerometer

Hi,

I'm a rooter/flasher beginner with a desire-z.

I install your rom who is my favorite one. Thank for that and congratulation.

However I have a problem: the g-sensor isn't detected. The rotation screen don't works.

I tried other Roms (jelly baby, andromadus) and the problem is the same.

BUT with custom roms based on older android version (virtuous, CM 7) the g-sensor and the rotation work perfectly.

On the Desire-Z forum, a guy (who is very kind and patient, 10 000 thanks Akamarukiba) help me to do a logcat and a dmesg. I join them here.

He think maybe the problem is here:

E/filemap ( 1851): mmap(0,4096) failed: No such device
E/WVMExtractor( 1518): Failed to open libwvm.so

Maybe you can help me.

If you can't I will keep your rom because I love her so much, and I will open the keyboard when I need landscape!

EDIT: I just tried the andromedus Kitkat. The sensor works!!! It's on my mind a jelly bean problem.

Hi everyone !

I'm still on this ROm and it runs great.

I just have one issue : baterry drain during airplane mode (around 20-25% per night).

I don't know if I'm alone.

[MENTION=4693882]HTCDreamOn[/MENTION] Do you plan to do a new compilation with sources ?

It would be really appreciate!!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] HTCDreamOn:
I'm in the middle of exams right now so no new version for a while. Besides, I don't think CM are updating the CM10.1 source any more so you'l have to post a logcat so I can investigate it myself. You might want to check app usage using wakelock detector or something to make sure it isnt something obvious and nothing to do with the ROM.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Kéno40:
OK!

Thanks for your answer.

I will start by refalshing the ROM

Battery usage doesn't show anything anormal. I've the same apps as before, except Homebuzz laungher.

Good luck for your exams !

Merde ! :o)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arunal_123:
Apart from the ROM running so smooth and perfectly.

Its only the battery drain, that lacks.

I'm experiencing the same too.

Battery drains a lot faster than other ROMs. Even with screen off, music will drain some 7-8% in an hour.

Didn't try a different kernel.

I'll check and report back.

(I thought for a while it was my battery gone mad. :D)

Thanks...

Hi,

I only have only 20mb ram after booting. Is it rom related? How to get the max ram on this rom? I have lot of redraws and restarts of applications due to low memory. Developer mode, i limited the no of background processes to two.

Any useful tips?

Everything else is fine!

Thanks a lot1

Cheers tomtom
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arunal_123:
I usually have enough free ram. I am even running galaxy S4 theme.

But since this is CM ROM, you obviously will notice higher usage of ram compared to AOSP. Don't worry with each passing day, everything will subside.

Instead this ROM is capable of running higher games too, like Dead trigger.

Just give it some time.

I usually had 100-115mb free ram.

But with this mod, I'm actually getting higher free rams. Seems like better ram usage is optimized.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] utx:
Bugs found

This ROM gave me a chance to continue to use my phone. I am happy to leave RAM-hungry, slow and minutes-lagging KitKat attempts.

For me, this ROM is smooth, and also a battery and background mobile data conservative. (At least with my style of use.)

But there are several very ugly bugs:

- Sound volume routing. This problem makes impossible to use FM Radio (with Spirit UL). FM radio itself works perfectly, but in this ROM there is no way to control FM radio volume. It starts with a random volume (mostly zero), and both volume buttons and volume controllers send tune signal. (In earlier ROMs and in KitKat it works well.) I guess that it can have relation to microphone problems reported by some users.

- Camera flash is not synchronized with the camera shutter. Flash flashes, but camera takes nearly back image. As far as I remember other discussions, this bug is inherited from others ROMs.

- Google Maps Navigation screen permanently jumps up and down and popup windows contents is sometimes invisible. (Graphic driver issue?) This bug is also shared with other ROMs. (KitKat has this fixed, but it is so memory hungry that it is makes navigation nearly unusable.)

- When the mobile signal returns after a signal loss (e. g. after leaving the underground tunnel), the ROM sometimes fails to re-initiate mobile data access. Temporary switching to flight mode sometimes works, temporary switching to 2G only and back as well. Reboot always fixes this problem. (Note that underground railway in Prague is equipped only with 2G (EDGE) BTS stations, and tunnels have no signal. And what is even worse, every second T-Mobile station uses the same Cell ID.)

Regarding the SIM access: I did not test contacts, but SMS application is capable to copy and delete SMS on SIM (just the Menu button does nothing there, and I am not able to Delete all).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bibole:
Hello to all,

Does anyone have tested this ROM with tomtom navigation ?? Are there any bugs ?

I'm actually on ROM AOSP 4.2.2 - Jelly Baby - v2.0.0 : all is cool, except the manual keyboard who don't work no more on sliding the phone. (HTC Desire Z). Very anoying...

Is it the same with this ROM ?

Hi, HTCDreamOn

I should express my huge thanks to you, benn using your rom for a while

However, as days go by, my device gets laggy and slow. I know, it's a common problem. So usually, when I notice that the phone slowed down considerably, I run supercharger script - and it helps, aslo for some period of time

After that there is only one one left - factory reset

I've already done it two times on your rom and now it;s time for the 3rd

As far as I see, Desire Z development almost died - only you, Marco Marinho and Flinny appear here. What is more, both flinny and marco are playing with CM11 - and we all know how much time it takes to polish your alpha (especially considering that the number of DesireZ users decreases continiously). And they are making multi-device roms, so they can't devote all their time to vision

This is why I have a sort of proposition: can you possibly polish this rom up, so that it is fast not only the several days after clean install?

I guess, this is what most left vision users want: a reliable, rather fast rom which last accordingly

I understand that vision is an old device - yet I keep it because nothing new can compare to it. And it is obvious that if you want latest rom tricks (and 3GM RAM) you should buy new phone

Soooo........stable and polished AlterNdromadus, please?
