I noticed other things, too

Hello again.

I noticed some oddities in the ROM that I didn't mention earlier: If anyone else notices these issues please let me know or reply or quote me. Also, if another dev notices this other than the one I quoted, please feel free to reply or contact me directly.

-Custom Lock-screen wallpaper option isn't present or available

-When Contacts+ draws over the lock-screen, com.android.systemui stops abruptly. I allow it to because I need it for quick reply so I don't have to unlock my device.

-USB debugging is botched. PDANet+ claims HTC Sync Error=-2 on PC. I also don't see an option to manage or revoke approved ADB requests.

-Also, although I am using PBMC Mappings, this ROM doesn't support playback control mappings for media players (with the option to choose which media player exclusively receives the signal).

-When you select show AM/PM in clock settings along with seconds, HH:MM TT:SS results (instead of HH:MM:SS TT).

-I hail the settings search function with great praise. The settings app is spread thin like butter to the point that some CM/PA/Mahdi themes are not covering all icons in Settings. Your work is awesome either way, but the missing icons are odd for a theme junkie like myself.

I made sure I looked using settings search tool prior to reporting these items missing or abhorred. I am happy to announce, since I read this thread cover to cover (all 47 pages on) I have not experienced the bugs others have reported yet... like that Notification drawer crashing the settings app. Sounds like a TB problem. I only used TB to restore SMS/MMS and Call Log. I have no issues so far.

I have yet to update my signature.

I had JB 4.1.2, debloated and was happy about it.. and have now switched to this ROM - I am amazed that there is such a development.

This ROM is much better, I can clearly see the speed and performance.

just some important bugs:

* Back camera for video recording does not work at all, it just shows black screen

* Battery consumption is very high. I have uninstalled themechooser.apk (which was the highest) and googlenowlauncher and google play music.apk - turned off data, wifi, sync, etc.. using now also battery doctor... it got little better after all, but still in comparision to JB 4.1.2 the battery consumption is clearly much higher in LS.

* just one small thing: would be great if the boot animation would really be "liquid" "smooth" as well, it looks like a gif file repeating with wrong timings with the water drops and dark screening, i.e. wrong time shifting.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] terinfire:
I'm noticing that the phone is EXTREMELY slow now -- nothing unusual done. I'm noticing that com.android.systemui is also eating through the battery like nothing else. Was thinking about reflashing, but figured I might wait for a new release.

I haven't done anything really different -- or toggled anything -- is there any reason why the phone would slow down after a while... for no reason?

Facebook showing a dark grey text on black background

I'm experiencing the Facebook showing a dark grey text on black background issue too...

I tried to flash the last ROM but the issue persist, also by cleaning Facebook's data.

Running now :

- Rom][4.4.4] LiquidSmooth v3.2 [Official][7/21/2014]

- Facebook 15.0.0.20.16 (Aug 19th)

Any idea what is the root cause?
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] esilence:
yea same here, on main facebook screen posts it is like that, while on friends timeline it appears normal when i go there.

i changed the themes of android and tried again, but it didnt help as well
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] HibikiRush:
Yeah this has been annoying by with R3V3N saying he is working on an update I am hoping this gets fixed.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] TPMJB:
I stopped using Facebook as they now require the stupid messenger app too. As if I needed more crap running in the background. Works fine with the browser,but you lose the edit/delete post features.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Suncatcher16:
Me too. F*ck off their stupid messanger![emoji48]
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] chuckiev79:
Just use an older version on fb. I havent updated in ages and all is well. No messenger.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] REV3NT3CH:
I"M BACK!!!!!!!!! 8/30 build is up...please clean flash...lots of changes and goodies....also to note im using Black FB by kevin fox...find it on g+ there is also another cool themed facebook..it also does not rely on messenger app and does not have any issues with being unreadable
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] RodimusConvoy:
Cool, I'll look for it. Miss having a version of the Facebook ap on my phone. But just a quick question: are you just going to focus on LiquidSmooth and CarbonRom from now on? As in no more updates for SlimRom? Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] scaltro:
Nice...

I just installed the new ROM, but I can confirm that issue with black background in both Facebook and GMaps apps persist :(

Do you have a repository for working APKs?
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] REV3NT3CH:
I may be cancelling Carbon...its having too many issues for a device that is no longer supported
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] REV3NT3CH:
Read my post...this is a fb issue...hence why we are using custom apks...I did say where you can find it...on kevin fox's g+ page...also look into teamblackout apps for custom google apps like maps or hangouts....personally..i use waze...much better than gmaps
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] furboom1240:
Version 3.9, right? Or...

Hey there! Even though I am using CM 10.2.0 for now, I'm quite interested in this app. can you provide a link to this particular Kevin Fox's G+ Page? There are seven results pointing to that name, which is confusing.

However elsewhere on XDA I found a black Facebook app. It is currently on my phone's extSDcard. Even though I suspect it has a different signature, it attempts to override Facebook. Is this normal? (It would probably say X-Application not installed) Should I uninstall original Facebook APK?

Finally, I had a flashable that XDA member "cuadedanh" published for CM 10.2 that has effectively modified my ContactsProvider.apk. Will this particular Facebook behave the same and allow me to sync contacts?
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] REV3NT3CH:
General rule of thumb is yes to remove old to install new...that's what I did....the page in particular is DaFox Black l

General rule of thumb is yes to remove old to install new...that's what I did....just Google TeamBlackedOut

General rule of thumb is yes to remove old to install new...that's what I did....just Google TeamBlackedOut they have lots of cool stuffs there
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] HibikiRush:
Bummer to hear about the black background issue still persisting. Not so much for Facebook if there is an alternative but for GMaps, as I find it more efficient with the Google Now integration as opposed to Waze.

I am thinking my Relay 4G is going to be laid to rest soon, I am waiting on the Note 4 announcement. Pretty terrible that QWERTY phones are dead.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] furboom1240:
I found it, but...

The updaters have been removed from Google Play ("The requested item was not found on this server") so I'm hesitant to install these apps without an ability to update.

Also, even though I do not have LiquidSmooth installed, I will Thank your post anyway for the good experiences, not the bad. Heck, I'm glad you're keeping apexqtmo alive. You're probably one of the few left who care about this phone.

The one thing I mentioned earlier about that upstream bug regarding WiFi AP resetting on Windows 7, I'd like to elaborate what I told TeamApexQ and what the said back:

They say it's an upstream bug, and they couldn't deal with it on CyanogenMod. Then they said my computer is to blame. I'm certain a good chunk of this country uses Windows 7 and up for their daily fix, and I do NOT experience this issue on CM 10.2 (API 18-based), so my computer is not at fault. Then I was told something about "Roaming aggressiveness" by utopia105. Problem is, I don't have an Intel-based WLAN chpset. It's Qualcomm, just like the MSM8960 in my phone.

What I'd like to know is, who do you think I should go to in order to squash this bug? If not, how can I fix it? I did send a PM to Nardholio, but was ignored of course. I did get a read receipt, however. Now I know why.

It shouldn't be in a dev's code to give up, and I am not the only one on XDA suffering from this bug. It hasn't been mentioned much because Google feels it can put oppressive code into its ROM and get away with it, including:

4.2.x-Airplane mode is taken away from third party apps unless rooted

4.4.x-extSDcard third-party access restricted unless rooted

4.8.x Play Store reduces security by dumbing down permissions (unless you have PlayPermissionsXposed module)

Shortly after I finalize this post, I will probably shell out some dough to make sure this operation stays alive. I wish you good health, [MENTION=5037435]REV3NT3CH[/MENTION] and plenty of resources to continue this ROM. Good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] esilence:
yea!

camera bug fixed: recording by back camera is now working in that new version (8/30).

also the battery consumption is now much better..

thanks rev!
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] sorgo:
Try to play with setting other themes. It looks like FB is taking that black color from device theme instead of having a fixed white background.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] terinfire:
I noticed the *exact* same thing. After I killed all themes, Facebook started showing things normally.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] emaayan:
so is it ok, to install std facebook now? i never experienced problems with it earlier on?

what about gmaps? that's pretty standard and i can't update them from play that's a problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] TPMJB:
It is said earlier in this thread that you need to download a custom apk by teamblackout for Facebook, as the problem is in the app, not the rom.

Really liking this rom! I waited since the last build to install this. Question: why does it get unbelievably slow if I wait that long before flashing a new rom? It starts off nice and quick, but then gets reeeeeallly slow doing anything. phone will heat up a ton too.

Anyway, keep up the good work!
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] REV3NT3CH:
Could be caused by a bad setting in performance by user or not clearing cache or recents...
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] TPMJB:
I generally don't touch those settings as they have the potential to screw things up (also, I don't feel like reading about it). Cleared cache, didn't seem to help. I think it's whenever I install Facebook it just slows the phone down. That program is just evil...

Anyone have luck with recording video on snapchat? Video works on the camera app, but still borked in snapchat.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] falle21:

ROM Support

Hey there! It's good to know that this ROM is still in development, and I'd like to share a few suggestions (if that's OK), as the following issues are keeping me from upgrading- otherwise this ROM is great!

-Airplane mode-based wake-lock killer (when phone is in Flight mode, it can suppress location queues on its own without me having to disable location)-often when I run a Kitkat build on my device, it drains even faster and I have followed all or nearly most battery saving guidelines. I rely on location, however, but would like it to stay hush-hush when I activate Flight mode.

-WiFi AP-this bug is upstream, but I believe any developer who doesn't give up can fix it despite its upstream nature. If OEM's like Samsung and LG can do it, so can AOSP developers like [MENTION=5037435]REV3NT3CH[/MENTION] as well. I have faith in you! If you need more details (since they are too many to note on this reply) please give me the A-OK to send a PM with my troubles to any developer currently working on this ROM. I'm actually using my WiFi AP now to type this reply. I am very reliant on it, so I need it to work properly as it does now (check my signature for my current ROM) and NOT ask me for my firewall settings every time I am turning it on while Kitkat is installed.

-Settings-some menu items are organized differently than even typical AOSP, and if it weren't for the handy-dandy search function, I'd have no idea about any item. The issue is some icons do not get themed because they aren't always covered by themers. Or maybe the PNGs aren't the same. Is WiFi first this time? Screenshots, anyone?

-Lockscreen CUSTOM (not theme) wallpaper- somebody mentioned to me that you could change the lock-screen wallpaper from the Themes menu. No such option was visible to me in the 7/21 build. Correct me if I'm wrong if it's on the 8/31 build. It would be great if it was in the same menu as Lock screen or security>Lock screen. Anybody got a screenshot of that menu?

Of course, I don't want to be on JB 4.3 forever, but a ROM with at least that WiFi AP fix would be awesome! Thank you and have a great night!
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] clevebb:
Same for me! I'm coming from CM11 nightlies.

[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] furboom1240:
A better direction for lack thereof

if I seem to be long winded, I apologize. I guess less is more. When a new version of this ROM comes out, can someone share a changelog with me (or tell me where to find it)?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] REV3NT3CH:
i will start putting them back up on drdevs server on next build
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] John5788:

I think there's a way to view it on the phone too, but I forget how.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] esilence:
battery consumption

I have reverted my relay back to the LS version from July. I thought in the current version the battery drain was better but I was very wrong in total. Whatever settings I tried ("debloated", deactivated some apps etc..), the version from July is still better even with exact the same settings. (though I achieved better results in stock rom, about 1% drainage over the night)

as mentioned earlier, in flight mode, the consumption is also much higher than normal.

Any chance to find out the issue or what exactly was changed in the source?

Otherwise I can sacrifice the back video camera recording bug, and so I'd better prefer continue using the July version of LS.

See attached and compare to see how important this battery issue gets re of my daily average usage.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] furboom1240:
Suggestion for you

I had the same issue even with my ROM (4.3 based). The solution that works best for me is the NlpUnbounce Xposed Module (if Xposed is your thing, of course, and you don't have issues with it). It has worked wonders for me. But just in case you encounter a bug similar to the one I had (with camera), running forever, simply force stop the camera. Usually works for me. Even though I am using CM 10.2, these issues persist with each android upgrade. Nothing new.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] TPMJB:
I have noticed randomly some very disturbing behavior. I might revert back to the July build. Randomly, my phone will fail to send a message altogether and fail on every message sent. Then it can't find the cell towers in an area where I usually have no problem. I don't know if it actually fixes it, but I boot to recovery, clear cache+dalvik, and wait about five minutes after it boots to get a signal again.

For the July build, I ODIN'd the latest stock rom and did everything I was supposed to in order to flash that build and it worked flawlessly. Not sure what the issue is since I did a clean install of this rom from the last one.

Edit: Can anyone upload the July build?
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] chuckiev79:
I haven't had any problems with liquid. I use history eraser constantly though... Clearing out the garbage and what not.

thanks [MENTION=5616810]furboom1240[/MENTION] i wished i knew xPosed before, then i could experiment with it

[MENTION=5037435]REV3NT3CH[/MENTION]

in case u upload the july (7/24) version, any chance to rebuild it with only fixed the camera bug?

I do not know what else was fixed after that in the current version and if they really were so important, but it definitely causes the battery problems. admitted reducing cpu/gpu is not an elegant solution. july was obviously the most efficient built, also in performance at least
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] sorgo:
I tried to set the interactive governor, because the phone had lot of lag, especially when unlocking and receiving a call. It took few seconds (5 to 10) until the display came up and phone was responsive. Now it's a bit better, but I found out one thing: the Battery Monitor Widget says, that most of the battery usage is due to Android OS, but the details show, that almost all of Android OS record is kswapd0. Is there any way to turn of swap? Was the swap added in recent version? That would explain the battery drain.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] chuckiev79:
Did u try the wakelock blocker? I use this with greenify, and kernel tweeker 1350 max both cores(optimax) and undervolt 3 clicks to 862. My battery life is great and I use gps a lot for work, although I try not to use high accuracy.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Player-J:
The problem could be from using memory with lack of a swap space. In this case, the Android OS is showing kswapd0 is looking to use swap space that isn't available, so it just keeps looking for it. Having swap space should improve performance and reduce lag.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] sorgo:
Is swap a good idea? I remember HTC Desire Z with 512 MB RAM running with swap and it didn't help much, just the sd card passed away in few months.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Player-J:
The benefits of using swap are debatable. Some will say it isn't necessary while others argue that it will improve performance. Personally, I have a swap partition set up on my sd card. I figure - if it can possibly give a little boost to performance, then why not? Sd cards aren't that expensive and they won't last forever anyway. I back up anything important to my computer.

You performance problem might be helped by re-flashing the kernel only, then making a few adjustments to your settings. My phone is fast and operates efficiently and I don't use the interactive kernel ever.

WiFi AP bug revisited

If no one knows what I'm talking about, simply inquire.

I'll try to keep this short.

It was mentioned to me by members of TeamApexQ that the bug I complained about regarding WiFi AP is upstream AND only noticeable on Windows versions that use dedicated preset Firewall settings (Vista and up). Can it be fixed? If so, I will never look back toward Android 4.3 again.

If this is a bug, who should I go to? What files should I submit from my 4.3 based ROM?

Keep me posted.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] TPMJB:
Does anyone have the most recent July build? I don't know what it is, but my phone is acting worse than it did before I odin'd the latest stock rom and flashed the last build. I am getting very poor reception (no service) in areas I knew I got full bars before! I tried re-flashing the rom to no success. I feel like I need to go through the whole odin process again before I flash anything else because my phone is literally un-usable at this point.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] furboom1240:
Your wish is my command

Hey there! I have the 7-21-2014 build on Google Drive. Click here to get that and the correctly matched Gapps for this ROM. You're welcome. And Good luck. No one wants to see a Relay dead, right? At least I don't.

[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] HibikiRush:
Great. I am looking forward to the update. I decided to keep the Relay after fixing my LCD Issue, the connector seems like it was getting loose and whenever the phone would get hot the screen would go wonky. I taped the connector down with electrical tape and haven't had an issue since... So with LS I think I can get some more life out of the phone for sure.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] furboom1240:
Am I submitting bugs to the right place?

Hey there, [MENTION=5037435]REV3NT3CH[/MENTION] I am wondering if I am going about this all wrong. Is this the right place to submit bugs? I'm a bit confused as no one seems to address this. I am a very experienced individual, definitely NO noob. I know what I'm talking about. I maintain that there is a upstream bug concerning WiFi AP that is doing no good for my Windows 7 64-bit laptop. I'm certain someone here uses Windows 7 or later and can relate.

Please note that I am still on jelly bean because of this. I would love to take on the new theme engine, but this one bug needs to be fixed. Need files to compare? I'm ready to submit them.

P.S. TBO is no longer on Play Store and their website downloads redirects me to a blank page. Plus, Aptoide's APK version of TBO is corrupt.

Hey there, [MENTION=4913608]yohan4ws[/MENTION]!

...I am having an issue with WiFi AP re-assigning itself and I cannot control Roaming Aggressiveness on my Qualcomm Chipset (AR9845-bgn). Intel chipsets may not have this issue, but I need to know more from this community in order to fix or prevent this. Do you have this issue? I've tried to troubleshoot on my PC end but other hotspots do not exhibit this issue. Just mine.

Could someone recreate this issue? I do give my hotspot the same name I did in JB; maybe that could be the issue...I'll look into it for more details. Tablets do not distinguish between Home, Work, or Public like Windows 7 x64 does. Yes, the AP works, but it recreates itself on my Windows 7 laptop on each toggle.
