The instructions provided there are very straightforward.

He even provides a modified version of TWRP that can be changed in the settings to use f2fs when doing manual wipes. This may not be necessary anymore, as it looks like TWRP recently incorporated his changes, but it's still there in case they differ in some way.

As was already mentioned, you will have to run every new ROM zip through the KTweaker F2FS conversion, but considering it takes about 1m40s to run, it's certainly not a problem to do it once per week.

Remember to make a full backup and copy it to an external SD or your computer first!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] John_wba:
You actually don't have to convert the the ROM using KTweaker. (I was the first one in the KT thread to mention how) but it seems my comment got ignored.

This is how easy it is (I'll assume you already have data and cache as f2fs) if you want system converting (the ROM zip basically) just check in twrp force all partitions f2fs (must click including system) then simply back up your ROM that you want converting then reboot recovery and restore the back up you just made... Profit system will be f2fs.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] s3icc0:
yes this approach is mentioned there ... but if you want to update you have to convert
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] John_wba:
But f2fs does not benefit our phone in any way.. As the partitions were not intended to use it.. (All the built in I\O optimisations are for ext4) it only benefits phone that came out the box with f2fs.

No you don't, you have to repeat what I just said lol. (I do it after every update)

You was the guy only one page back asking how to do it, then someone like me, that has been doing the same process for months comments trying to help you and you tell me I'm wrong?? Fine have it your way.

Hi,

My dialer shows very faint numbers numbers:

Screen shot is "Full" brightness. ( which I never have on )

Also, when I dial a new number , it does not show what I am dialing (or I cannot see it due to old eyes :p )

It still dials , but I cannot see what I am dialing.

Anyone else?

:confused:

EDIT: They are there , but in black on black background

Still cannot see them , though.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] John_wba:
Have you got TRDS turned on? It should work if you turn it off... That's the best thing to do until slim team fix it properly :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] malybru:
Ha,

That did the trick...

But I like TRDS

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] __NBH__:
This is the old dialer from gapps 5.6. The new dialer fixes this problem. I would format the system and reflash the latest gapps from the slim web site. New one should be like this:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] s3icc0:
easy ... I just did not get you ... so you basically revert back to ext4 with every update, make a backup and restore it back as f2fs ... now I understand (it must be terrible load for the nand over time)

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mistertac:
Not a huge gain being on F2FS anyways. I ran it since it first came out for our phone ( Kt's TWRP ) and just recently went back to Ext4 with this ROM. Just my opinion though.

Also I flashed those Dalvic and Bionic patches again and I no longer get the Settings Force Close but I do get a Google Play Services FC from time to time... Nothing major everything still working great.

CM-derived ROMS have adjustable auto-brightness curve. You can set it to have dimmer setting than default and save battery without having another program running in the background. Lux does come with sub-zero setting that does help in dark rooms, but there are other apps that can add gray neutral layer to dim the screen.

(My auto brightness curve is 0 Lux=0%, 5 Lux=0%, 6 Lux=6%, 16 Lux=9%, 1200 Lux=69%, 5000=100%)

Or Llama - useful for other things like turning Wifi On/Off automatically, disabling lock at home, etc. But if you already use tasker, than it's probably moot.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
I already am a Tasker user, I started using Volume Control because it can lock volumes so it can't be changed while the phone is in your pocket. Something that's very difficult to do with Taker itself.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] matraca:
Even at 0% in a dark room the screen is too bright, my Lux app uses 6mb of ram, that is nothing compared to the benefit I get from it by going sub zero, also Lux switches from day mode to night mode automatically based on sunset or location, you can input your location manually so you don't have to have your gps on all the time. For me is a must have, I am sure some would find this usefull
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mistertac:
+1 on Lux

Great app
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] lost_:
True. Llama has profile lock, can change global ringtone or per-app rington based on profiles. For a free app, it's a treat. Plus, it runs tasker plug-ins too. I oscillate between Llama and E-Robot/Elixir2.

While on the subject of automation, Secure Settings plugin is definitely worth checking out (XDA thread).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] brunodu91:
Sorry for the hs, but someone, French preferential, could explAin to me how use tasker? Before I used llama, but tasker seems to be better but I don't know how to set to activating WiFi at home and disconnected it out of home?

I don't understand the variables and the settings logical?

[MENTION=3306843]kantjer[/MENTION] Loving this saber magic! But I kinda wanna play about with the kernel settings. I've had a look at your settings that you use on the alucard kernel thread and if I changed my settings to same as yours would I loose that nice smoothness? Or is that more to do with the saber magic? (I like to call it that cos its seems like magic to me)

With location and sync on I'm getting only .5% battery drain with the performance profile in STweaks. Pretty awesome the ROM sleeps like a baby. Runs smooth and snappy. Very pleased
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Zoot Allures:
Thanks Kantjer for this awesome ROM.

This is the first AOSP-ish ROM I keep more than four hours, not finding this or that not working or not easy to get right (even CM M6 left a sore taste). This Interface & Navigation settings, the SlimPIE and all fine things, and Alucard Kernel to give it a good battery life. :good:

Except a minor thing about external SD R/W access as most of the apps can write on my 64GB Samsung (FAT32 format) and the first one to not complain about this is Titanium Backup, it should be OK, then.

But, for some reason, DriveDroid don't, it can read ISO/IMG in its directory on my ExtSD but isn't allowed to download new files in it.

Cause I'm lazy I just launched KitKat External SD Card Patch (with SU granted) that crashed when starting to write the modification.

Then I tried SDFix: KitKat Writable MicroSD that tells me my card should be writable and nothing has to be done.

My /system/etc/permissions/platform.xml is only missing one line (in red) of what gave me no problem at all on a former KK AOSP trial:

<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" >

<group gid="sdcard_r" />

<group gid="sdcard_rw" />

<group gid="media_rw" />

</permission>

<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_MEDIA_STORAGE" >

<group gid="sdcard_rw" />

<group gid="media_rw" />

</permission>

So, I finally add this missing line (that would be flushed with the next update) but no dice, still not allowed to write on "/storage/sdcard1/" getting the "Android doesn't allow files to be downloaded..." message.

Its a bit odd. Not Slim related maybe but do you, please, ever have a clue or should I ask FrozenCow, DriveDroid's author what's wrong? (too bad not being able to "crosspost with a follow-up to" like in Usenet).

EDIT: The problem concerns Focal too. The Camera app give an option to choose internal/external storage.

Do you comprehend what default means?

. A preselected option adopted by a computer program or other mechanism when no alternative is specified by the user or programmer.

You can't have a undervolted default lol, default would be completely stock ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] FlanjeUK:
Sorry... Stock voltages are detected and set by default, if you tick the box and apply you will run an

table.

It's just not as undervolted as Alucard's default UV table found in the default profile
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] David_cole:
If that's true then it isn't default and the profile should be renamed by alucard lol :p ;) :silly:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] FlanjeUK:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
You forgot to look at the most important parameter in the stock settings.

cpu_voltage_switch=off

As long as that's off it doesn't matter what you set in the table below that. Those settings aren't used.

Like [MENTION=5210322]FlanjeUK[/MENTION] mentioned the only way to check the stock voltage is to delete data/.alucard, reboot and then do the voltage check in STweaks.

You will see it runs much higher values than set in the stock (unused) voltage table.
