Not all features are available yet.

Features:

Welcome to VanirAOSP

. Our mission is to deliver a clean optimized version of Android with subtly improved versions of the features you love to as many devices as possible. we've tried to incorporate and improve our features in a way that makes them more cohesive to improve the overall user experience while correcting any performance regressions and improving functionality..

What to expect

:

- This is not a McCopy ROM. What goes into our build is well thought-out and not a bunch of stuff duck taped together because we could.

- maximum optimization. We do our research. We test hard. We build -fstrict -O3 globally and include a massive array of code optimizations and memory leak fixes that we write ourselves and eventually submit to AOSP or Linaro.

- originality in our source. We generate a lot of new commits being features or general code improvements. We are open source to share and improve the community but we also try to make sure we offer a unique experience.

- aesthetics.. hopefully in your opinion :P

General features

:

stock mode - ability revert to stock AOSP code with the exception of a few custom features we chose to keep active

enhanced performance.. longer uptime with less slowdown

custom written CRON and init.d.

UI and graphics improvements

custom navbar, navring, and hardware key features

improved notification handling (active display & halo are in review also)

usability improvements like power reboot menu and sound

animation control

Improved Vanir keyboard

CM's profiles & quicksettings

additional quicksetting tiles

immersive mode

statusbar mods

clock & battery mods

lockscreen blur and other mods

soon to come -> quick cam and flash notifications

busybox, embedded root, init.d, cron etc

yatta yatta yatta

more to come when i feel like updating the op

New build coming thanks to [MENTION=4559222]frapeti[/MENTION] for a fix for making the device tree even more common. Results in way less work. Now skomer and golden trees don't need modification at all. Anything done to codinalte will be used for golden and skomer.

edit: To fix confusion codinalte builds aren't compatible. It just allows skomer device tree to take our code and use it without having to maintain more source.
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Unjustified Dev:
3/21/14 Build now available

Makes sure your using my cwm

* Upstream CyanogenMod updates

* Upstream Vanir Updates

* Codinalte Relocate keylayouts per device

* Skomer and Golden copy ramdisk files from codinalte to minimize the amount of code to maintain

* Codinalte minor clean up of files. Removed unneeded files and configs

* Skomer added device specific gpio-keys to fix home , menu , and back button

* WIFI??? Please report back.

* Device tree is now available to compile for any rom. Previously is was not clean and had errors

Always a logcat is needed when you report a problem and is much appreciated.

Hi,

I did some testing with the vanir_skomer_4.4.2.032114 build.

- no mobile network, ROM couldn't find my SIM or any network.

- no WiFi, it was greyed out in both the pull menu and settings. I couldn't enable it.

- on 1st boot, Home and Back buttons worked but on the 2nd boot I somehow lost that functionality :o

I had similar problems with flxo's cm builds. I flashed from the stock if that matters anything.

Otherwise looks like a nice ROM :)

Also CWM seems to work ok.

I managed to get a logcat, hopefully it helps.

doh, I forgot to pull that config you requested. I'll try keep it on my mind next time I flash..
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] vastus:
There are several ways to get logcat, I used adb.

[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] vastus:
Here is the proc/config.gz as you requested.

I tested vanir_skomer_4.4.2.032314 build.

- Can confirm that WiFi works now.

- I still dont have mobile network. (can provide another logcat if that's necessary.)

- On the 1st boot, none of the hardware keys (home, back, menu etc.) worked except the power button. On 2nd boot all buttons started to work (kinda weird).

I can't comment on low volume in call or builds stability due to problem I listed above ^^.

Great job anyways :)
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] pingguo:
seems to work quite nicely now!

not sure if it is of interest, or the right place to discuss, but is it possible to give some of the free memory in the system partition to data, so that we might have a chance to enjoy art even with a moderate number of user apps? i ran into problems with 60 apps. didn't have enough time to check if something was wrong with the foldermounts, but i think in general on the s7710 we have too much system...

nice work with the rom and thanks for reviving s7710 development, the 03-23 version worked flawlessly in my super short test! :silly:

edit: link2sd was in operation, so that was not the culprit.
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Unjustified Dev:
I have the config dump that was for the kernel thanks. I'm still not understanding the internet problem some say it work some say it takes 7-10 minutes before it connects. I'm a bit confused.

adb logcat -b radio > radio.txt

this will create radio.txt which you can upload.

To ensure everything is correct did you wipe data , format system , and wipe dalvik cache before flashing?
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] vastus:
Okay, I tried again and this time I left phone on the table for 30 mins, no signal. :|

Yes, I always wipe data, format /system and wipe dalvik cache, when switching roms.

Here's radio logcat.
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] maurensen:
Testing..

Using latest build for some hours:

Phone line OK GSM+3g

Wi fi Semi OK something needs a cache + dalvik reset to work

Phone call volume OK

Average impression: really good keep testing thanx 4 your work!
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] BoaRek:
Hello

At first: thx a lot for that thread. I am gona test this rom as soon as possible (when i switch my primary phone to SIII mini).

and about radio:

i remember from forum, that Some X Cover 2 phones with cyanogenmod have GSM problems.

i saw 2 types:

1.) no network at all - that was fixed by wiping system partition before flash

2.) low signal, long singon, and often singal lost,

i have device with same problems - original and rooted rom works fine, with perfect signal, and fast gms search.

Cyanogenmod (10.2 alpha 8, and 10.2 alpha 10) make GSM issues - long time to sing into gsm, and very often singout. when i make a call, it was interupted in about 20 second, and i got no network signal for a while.

p.s. sorry for my english :)
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] MDobak:
Hey,

At first thanks for your awesome work :) I've just tested your ROM and everything works at least as god as in flxo latest CM10.2 ROM but I noticed one annoying thing: touchscreen dosn't work on very bottom of screen. To turn on applications on home screen i need to aim at the upper part of icon. I also noticed that it's imposible to turn on live wallpapers.

btw: sorry for my english ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] maurensen:
Also I've noticed that the touch on bottom of the screen is not working well( for ex if I have keyboard open I have to press two or three times to get keys on bottom screen to be detected).

BTW I have often some random reboot but the rest of the Rom is working well so for now I think I'll not switch back to flxo 's CM 10.2 and try to use 24/7 this nice rom.

Thanx for your work unjustified dev!
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] maurensen:
After some reboots no more random resets.. Good... Using from some hours and the Rom now seems solid not as flxo cm10.2 but very usable!

I'm going to keep it!

BTW switched to Art runtime just to try it with no problems so far...

Very nice Rim very customizable
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Unjustified Dev:
Next time you get a reboot turn off WiFi. Then see if after that it reboots? This is the same problem on my device. I just released a test build for them in which I think it's fixed.
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] pingguo:
The ROM is bugfree to me now, thanks so much, unjustified dev!

Does anyone know where the quick records from the vanir tiles go?
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] pojir:
I found another minor bug. When I set some custom layout in Vanir keyboard (I use US English + Czech QWERTY) it works well but only until the next reboot. After reboot I have only one layout - the system default (US English).
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] pingguo:
tested, but not confirmed. :P

unjustified, i found the camera to be not as versatile as many others out there, and i think it has to do with the software. probably it's Samsung's fault but can you do something about it? in particular:

1. the Google camera app only gives access to a limited functionality, for example the panorama is missing (which is really cool because it is the only panorama mode that stitches at full resolution instead of diminished nonsense)

2. one can not fix the exposure to a small area around focus, only full screen exposure is adjusted.

edit: okay i had the impression that the navring workaround (on/off) survives a reboot but that isn't true. so i say this is the only bug in this ROM. :) not going back to CM10.2.

Home Button

Why doesn't the HOME button work when the screen is locked, like it works in JB?
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] maurensen:
You have to manually modify gpio-keys.kl under system usr keylayout and add wake kayword after home entry...Google for step by step instructions but it's very simple using es file explorer setting first RW permissions of course... Good hacking!

BTW you have to redo this at every update so [MENTION=5082772]Unjustified[/MENTION]-dev

Would be possible to enable wake with home by default or to have a preference for this somewhere? Thanx
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] nocio:
hellou :)

i'm having a little problem (for me is big)

my proximity sensor dosen't work. when i tried to call someone, screen automaticly goes dark

sooo, can someone tell me how to disable proximity sensor?

i found out several tutorials, and no success
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] tko:
isen't that the normal function?

you place a call, [move phone at your head (or not... not sure about this point)], the screen turns off?
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] nocio:
no mate, not that. when i call someone, screen automaticly goes black, and it isnt near my head od ear
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] maurensen:
Out of curiosity have you the same behaviour using standard ROM? So it's HW or sw problem? Have you tried setting proximity sensor under telephone settings/call settings?
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] nocio:
yes i have. but on stock ROM i can disable proximity sensor under call settings, and on Vanir i cant :(
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] chil3r:
1. Still, the bottom of the screen is non responsive, even if you turn off search ring - approx. the half of the bottom row is not responding.

2. Also, sound recorder craches everytime i press record. I even installed another app for recording, but it's the same, app crashes.

3. Why is there no shortcut for DocumentsUI, a stock file manager in an app list?

4. And it would be nice if you put "WAKE" next to HOME in gpio-keys.kl, so we don't have to put it manually every flash.

Thanks for your hard work! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Unjustified Dev:
I can't help with ROM specific issues and I have no idea why the bottom half is unresponsive going to look into the issue though.

[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] maurensen:
Thanx for your feedback unjustified dev home button wake very appreciated.

Really the only thing not right in this ROM is the bottom screen problem that's very annoying the rest for me is perfect!

Out of curiosity so noone in the team has an xcover ..

Thanx for hard work!
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] pingguo:
guys it is actually convenient to solve, just get the navbar quick settings tile. fixes it without a hassle until next reboot, i'm absolutely not annoyed by the issue anymore. :o rom's flawless to me
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] maurensen:
Please pingguo could you explain the workaround you are using for bottom screen issue? Thanx mate!
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] maurensen:
Solved by myself:

Simply enable navbar tile on fast setting and enable/disable it and now bottom screen is OK!

Thanx guy now ROM is perfect!

Bluetooth headset

Today I've tried to connect bluetooth headset, but the phone cannot find it.

It worked on JB 4.1.

Can you fix that somehow?

Thank you, that solution for non responsive screen bottom worked!
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] chil3r:
File manager

One more thing,

is it possible to implement this file manager?

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/omnirom-gets-an-open-source-file-manager/

I see that there already is documentsUI.apk in the ROM, but there is no app icon in app drawer, and this is a little frustrating without ES File Ex.
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] fryc88:
So you are doing something wrong. BT headsets are working fine on this soft, maybe u need to turn on pairing mode on you headset....

[MENTION=4911249]Unjustified Dev[/MENTION]

Is there a chance to add option/something, to lock touch screen while in camera mode?

When trying to take photo underwater, camera is going crazy, zoom in/out, shutter sometimes does not work, also it can swap camera to front or some other magic things, just because touch screen is somehow reacting with my fingers underwater

Thanx unjustified dev!
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Infinity123:
I just installed the latest ND2 stock firmware (csc SEB) after that installed new CWM. Did full wipe and installed Vanir, but for some reason it looses my IMEI, why? Luckily when flashing back to stock my IMEI comes back... Can anybody post what base firmware and modem they are using to get fully working vanir?
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] fryc88:
For me it is problem, because when im working, i often press buttons, then in my pocket touch is unlocking and it is calling into random pplz, or moving icons, or something else..

But turn on/off wake is just saved in config file, so it is like 2 minutes to turn on/off
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] maurensen:
It's a matter of taste for me using home button to wake is very useful and I've changed lockscreen settings to avoid accidentally unlock...
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Gagana:
Have installed vanir_skomer_4.4.2.060614.zip

Hardware keys (under screen) don't work at all. Radio see some Wi-Fi hotspots (not all) but don't see any cellular network. I understand that it is nightly build. But where is the stable one? Or even working?

When I see "About phone" section there is "Baseband version" that says "Unknown".
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] :
Same missing Radio/Modem

I tried with 3rd og June and 6th of June, as well as two CM roms. All four installed but never got any signal from cell provider and I went back to stock between. Tried both the CWM listed and the previous version. Guessing modem/radio driver is off - good to see I'm not the only with this issue. I'm using Telenor in Norway.
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Unjustified Dev:

I have never had working mobile data connection on any CM/Vanir build, with stock SEB (baltic) firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] pojir:
How can I tell which firmware I have?

My phone comes from official Czech distribution. And the data connection on cm/vanir work... but only sometimes. It breaks very often and there is no easy fix, sometimes I have to wait for like one hour and restart it a couple of times before the data works again.
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] chil3r:
Yes, this issue bothers me, too. I'm on the Croatian carrier, Tele2.

You are right, I did something wrong. But, when the phone succeded to find my buetooth headset, it says that the pairing is impossible because of the wrong pin, pass?!? Do you know why?

[MENTION=4911249]Unjustified Dev[/MENTION]

Can you put stock file manager in the app drawer? Like this one:

[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] pojir:
And do you enter the correct pin? Headsets usually have pins like 0000, 1111, 1234, 11111, 12345 and so on
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] :
That would be superb - I'd be happy to learn of your findings (figuring it's unorthodox to have country/carrier specific configs in 2014 :)).

Some random thoughts about latest build 0806:

- Nice we have 4.4.3 :)

- gorgeous boot image!

- quick settings tiles are screwed up (settings icon is replaced by signal icon, torch icon is a !, etc but pressing is working on)

- telephone signal is OK but the icon is missing in status bar

The rest as far as I can see is working OK!

Good work!
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] chil3r:
Quick setting are fine on my phone, but the signal issue is awfull.... every hour, it looses signal and I cannot restore it back. It has become unbearable, so I had to restore it to JB. The same issue was in a previous builds too, but because of other reasons I didn't use the ROM enough long to notice this signal breaking. I thought it breaks once in a while, but no. Now I see it is quite often. Probably it has something to do with the different carriers...

So I'm begging you all who can to fix it, because the ROM is really great, but yet, too unstable for me.

:fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] maurensen:
Personally I switched back to 06 build for me no glitches or lost signal hoping for other users to be able soon to use this very great ROM without problems like me!
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] valdaarv:

After full wipe, fresh install, and initial setup, it connects to the network but I can't make the phone call for cca 15minutes, then it works.
