Best Jellybean rom for Magnus

Thank you so much for the awesome rom.. :D i love many things in this rom. I love this rom so much that whenever i hate a rom i revert back to only epic rom instead of our stock. :good: :p

:laugh: What i love :

1. Super smoothness. I found no lags ever. Opens any app without issue and awesome multitasking ability. Benchmarks scores are pretty impressive i have attached the screenshots.

2. Camera is so good. Focuses in no time and captures beautiful pics

3. Quicksettings tiles are looking good. Found some editing. I should give a credit for this editing.

4. No bloatwares. I hardly use google apps like hangouts, google+ etc.. Thanks for removing them.

5. Autostart manager in settings which is quiet helpful.

6. Autohide no signal icon

7. Boots very fast than anyother roms.

8. Recovery mode option in power menu.

9. Battery last for long time. It drops to 54% for a screen on time of 3 hrs and 42 min and for all dat time i hv been watching youtube videos. This is great :)

10. Icons(dialer, contacts, messaging, camera, settings, gallery) are more like google edition. I hate the icons in a117 stock rom.

Somethings i found irritating are

1. Whenever i restart, ringtone and notification tone are reset to rom default tones. Plz look in to this bro..

2. i'm nt sure whether this is rom pblm or others -> Sometimes when i restart and open gallery it shows "no images found". The problem is media scanning command not triggered automatically when rebooted. I have to use 3rs part app "Rescan Media" to get the images.

3. Capacitive buttons backlight is always on whenever i touch the screen. Any build.prop edit or xposed module available to change this to light only when the buttons are touched?

i hate this - Everytime i install the rom i have to change the values in engineering mode. Is there anyway to set the optimum values in the rom file itself?? If possible plz update this in rom and upload the file.

These are juz minor things i need modification otherwise it is an awesome rom.

Pls tell someone.

1 battery backup? As in stock rom, battery goes from 100 to 0 in 4 hrs of screen time with brightness at 50%

2 camera quality n noise in pics

Thanks in advance
[Micromax Canvas Magnus A117] Siddk007:
battery backup differs for everyone. also i'm looking for buying a new one as my battery doesnt give the expected backup.

Camera quality is quite good i would say, no issues.
[Micromax Canvas Magnus A117] navtab:
thanks

If battery is not very bad then its better to buy power bank instead of battery. Original battery will cost you ₹800 n xiomi power bank 10400mah will cost you ₹1000.
[Micromax Canvas Magnus A117] Siddk007:
ok. thnx for ur suggestion!

Is there any patch for that?

Do you really get that much battery??since i got just 3.5 jrs battery. Any fix for capacitive button light??

Rest is fine.

[Micromax Canvas Magnus A117] Sactgr:
Wow, after a long time i see!

Well it was android_l .

To think of it, its been ages since i last came here becoz the development was slow.

But to be honest it was a good rom, but it gives lags on little heavy gaming . i gave the phone to my mom .

She runs stock android, believe me its the best .

Remove some bloatwares and install xposed modules and u r done no problem.

I also have seen 2 days without charge on regular whatsapp and facebook.

Greetings for all of you.

Hi, this is my first post in this huge community (sorry for my poor english)

I already did some research trying to resolve my question but can't achieve it...

the fact is, i have an s4 i9500 stock rom 4.4.2, it's rooted and factory unlocked (all works well until now)

i really want to use a custom rom (this will be my first time!), of course i have been reading a lot from this forum and i have choose "Omega Rom v20" (actually my account doesn't have "permission" to post this on the Omega's thread)

however, my only doubt is, can i "install" this rom (i think i already know how to do it) if actually my s4 have this

base band: i9500UBUFNA2 ?

kernel says: 3.4.5-742022 dpi@SWDD5716 #1

compilation says: KOT49H.i9500UBUFNB3

i just want to be totally sure this custom rom (omega v20) works well based in my phone status (base band, kernel...)

thanks in advance.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] NyphoX:
Hello,

I got this HTC One X from AT&T (->evita) and tried to get CM 10.2.1 running on that.

The steps I made:

Boot into bootloader, go to fastboot, then get the identifier, get unlock token via htcdev and unlocked it with fastboot.

I then flashed CWM 6.0.4.6 for evita via "fastboot flash recovery *filename*". Now I booted into CWM (recovery) and wiped everything instead of first trying to copy the cm.zip onto the sdcard. (I also didnt do this when the stock ROM was still running...)

Now I can access the phone via fastboot in the bootloader but I can not use adb or the USB mount when in CWM. Whenever I plug the phone into my computer (or laptop, doesn't matter. Also tried switching between USB 2 and 3 ports!) Windows keeps making the "unplugged" sound every second.

Reinstalling the latest HTC drivers did not change anything.

Anyone here knows a way how I can stop that or get the zip file on the memory? I also tried flashing the boot.img on boot and tested if I can copy the file then through CWM but that did not work.

Hoping,

NyphoX
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Not sure if it'll work but try using TWRP recovery instead:

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] NyphoX:
Installed the most recent version.

I get into the recovry and when I plug it into a computer Windows will keep making the "unplugged"-noise.

I can see the sdcard-directory perfectly when I hit install in both, TWRP and CWM but when I want to mount it via USB it will not change anything and I cannot access it on my PC.

adb doesn't list any device either.

Also, TWRP and CWM keep telling me that my phone is not rooted, when I try to power off or restart. Is that normal?

My other HTC One X (non AT&T) just works fine with cwm 5.*.*.*
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
It's normal for the recovery to inform you that you're not rooted, it'll suggest that you install superuser but there's no point doing that in your case because you have no working OS installed. Did you at any point perform a factory reset from the bootloader? If so, you've corrupted the internal storage (known bug on modified Evitas) and will need to wipe it with TWRP.

Sent from my Evita
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] NyphoX:
Saw that in your Q&A. ;)

I wiped the internal_sd and tested it after but it still did not work. I also tried a factory reset through TWRP but that did not help either.

Both recovery programs keep telling me "E:Unable to mount '/cache'.

Still not working. Q_Q
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] NyphoX:
Update: I got like the oldest laptop I ever owned and installed the most recent HTC drivers there and tried to mount it. It told me in device manager that the "evita" is not recognized. When I let Windows search automatically it installed the drivers and I am now able to access the memory.

I can only assume what the problem was but it seems like the HTC One X (endeavoru) driver and the evita don't like each other...

TL;DR trying to install now. Will edit.

//EDIT: Windows still screws when I plug the phone to the other computer/laptop, so I just have to use the old machine now. Still thanks for your help, timmaaa!

//EDIT: It does work when I booted CM and enable the USB storage at the other two machines.

I have an Amazon Fire TV imported from the US,,, Is it possible to use my UK Prime Instant Video account? I can link it up to my UK account (the apps seems to reflect this) but I seem to be seing US Movie/TV content. Also no way to set timezone to UK.

In the Netherlands, got this problem as well. Opened the Amazon settings apk, and those few time zones are hardcoded in the app/xml, so looks that amazon doesn't have any outside US plans for now.

Sideloaded a default Android Setting apk, but switching time zones didn't stick, same as via adb shell setprop persist.sys.timezone, so think we'll need to wait for root access to make it stick.

Hi there,

So are you saying that you have an amazon.co.uk account, but the Fire TV prime movies on your box are the USA movies? (I think that means you get about 2x as many choices AFAIK... which is fantastic. So is that true?

Also, how about NetFlix, is that UK or USA content?

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eskay993:
Here is my experience so far...

If you use a service like SmartDNS or Unblock-US, you can watch Netflix from anywhere in the world using your UK Netflix account. No need for VPNs. The services costs an extra $5 a month but worth it. Works great on all devices, including my Fire TV.

The service also works a treat for Hulu, but the Fire TV app is for Hulu. This needs a US credit card to subscribe.

For Amazon Instant Video (the pay to rent/buy service), you need a US Amazon.com account and a US credit card. You can use a service like US Unlocked (not to be confused with Unblock-US mentioned above :)) which lets you register for a virtual US credit card with a US billing address and works great on Amazon and Vudu. Been using it a few years, but it does require a huge leap of faith to sign up for it - you need to send bank details etc for initial setup. I haven't had any issues so far, but appreciate many won't want to do this.

You can probably also get Amazon.com vouchers but have not tried this for Instant Video . Lots of sites sell them

The kick in the teeth for me is Amazon Prime and not having access to the UK service. On the Fire TV it's not an app that you launch so to speak, it's integrated into the menus. Everything that is served is the US content. Unlike Netflix, which uses the same app to server different content based on your region, Amazon has different apps for each region.

So to get UK Prime content, we need a UK version of the app sideloaded. At least that's my conclusion. The best version would be the Google TV apk (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.amazon.avod) and there are some discussion around about ripping it, but I don't think anyone succeeded. We would also need it to be the UK version of the app.

As an example, on PS3, to get UK Prime, I need the app from the US PSN store, and for US Prime you need the one from the US PSN store.

The other challenge is sideloading it. I tried sideloading this Amazon Instant APK just as a test, and I got an error saying com.amazon.avod already installed, which is the main Prime app on the Fire TV. Someone much smarter than me would need to figure out how to change the name of the app/package so it can be installed alongside each other. Even if you could, this app won't work anyway to get UK content (or even work at all with a remote), but it's one step closer if we can get two versions of the Amazon app installed side by side.

Hope that helps someone somewhere :p It's still a great piece of kit - only thing I'm missing is UK Prime.

Cheers
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JPDeckers:
Does Netflix UK work for you? Mine (also using Unblock Us) does show the content, and can navigate, but will refuse to play movies. It will start loading but then stalls after about 40% loading.

adb logcat gives java cert errors.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eskay993:
Hmm you're right. I've been mostly watching US and only tested accessing UK content, not playing. Tried playing and it stalls at 40%.

As a test, I tried a different Netflix apk that I found and it works fine in terms of playing the movie, but this apk is designed for touchscreen and a bit crappy to use with the Fire TV remote.

So, either it's a bug with v1.0.1 of Netflix which comes with the Fire TV, or it' an extra region check they've added, which sucks. I suspect it's just a bug/restriction of this old version.

If we can find a version Netflix apk that works well with a remote, then this would be solved. Unfortunately most results that come up are for touch screens.

Sooo close to being the perfect box! Hopefully someone can figure out a way round it.

Cheers

UPDATE: Netflix UK now works for me as I mention below.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boxst:
Unfortunately I haven't found a way around this. I am in the UK and bought a Fire TV whilst in the US. When returning none of the videos play, none of the applications load (apart from the ones I've sideloaded).

It is still useful, as I put XBMC on there but it would be great to be able to use an Amazon Prime UK account or even just set the timezone without faffing about.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eskay993:
Not sure if it's something I inadvertently did, or something that changed server side at Netflix/Amazon, but Netflix UK now works on my Fire TV! I tried US, Mexico and UK and all movies and TV shows play (no longer get stuck at 40%). Worth trying it again if you were having trouble before.

All that's left now is for the new Netflix client (coming soon later in the year) and for a way to get Amazon UK, and I'm sorted!
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JPDeckers:
Indeed, somewhere around the last firmware update, Netflix started working! Uninstalled the sideloaded version, because this client is actually usable. Now wait for the updated one, but already really helps in usability.

So i've been playing with a Stable and Up-To-Date Custom ROM with my Ace-i (i won't say it so there will be no problem, but it is for personal use only)

i've tried to delete some .apk on the .zip file of the ROM and flash it, and so. but later on i experienced some crazy error or bug maybe. whenever i reboot my device safely, my SIM Contacts keep missing .. i think its being deleted .. it is saved in SIM Directory,

also i am shutting down and restarting my phone properly using the power button.

i also tried to reinstall a fresh, clean, copy of the ROM i use and still happens, anyone know why this odd problem happens ??

please help thank you :)

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 5617821:
Next time before you flash a new rom, you can take a backup of your existing contacts. To do that go to Contacts>Contact Setting>Export to SD. You will get a .vcf file in SD Card. Once you have finished installing new rom, you can restore this backup by doing Contacts>Contact Setting>Import from SD Card and click on the .vcf file. Or your contacts are also synced with your google account. So whenever you log in to your google account, it will automatically sync you contacts back to your phone. Hope I Helped :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xlSKYFiRElx:
no it's not that i didn't know that they are deleted after flashing .. my contacts are saved on my SIM Card Memory so either if i flash a new rom or factory reset they don't disappear .. the problem is, i discovered that they are still inside my Sim Card memory .. the only problem is, they won't appear on my contacts .. and everytime i add a new contact, it disappears after reboot ..

nonetheless, i'll just try using Cloud Contacts from now on, :angel:
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manos_mand:
You can use the google sync to save your contacts.

You see in an other device if your contacts is insite and you cant see it with your ace?
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 5617821:
Lol it's quite simple. The entire contact is in your SIM card but for them to be displayed into your phone, you just have to import them. Go to Contacts>Contact Settings>Import from SIM card. That's it. It will import all the SIM contacts to your phone. You will be now able to see all your contacts. Hope I Helped :)
