You don't need a Dotcase to test. Just grab a magnet and hold it in the middle of the phone on the left side. That way you can personally test if you want. :)
[One (M8) Original Android Development] PhillyFlyer:
Does this need to be flashed with cwm? I used TWRP last week and the ROM would not boot. Any suggestions?

And which is the latest version for the M8 ATT? I get lost in the download folders sorry!
[One (M8) Original Android Development] xboxfanj:
TWRP works fine. That's what I use. You may need to wipe data.

the download folder should take you to the right place. m8 builds work on all variants, so just pick the most recent build.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] PhillyFlyer:
Ohhhh Hellllll yizzzzz, Commotio back in business. Used to roll with this for my GS3/4 all day.

Thank yaaaa!
[One (M8) Original Android Development] PhillyFlyer:
Actually I'm going to go ahead and take my celebration back. About an hour ago, shortly after installing on my device, I had car trouble. I went to do what any normal person would do and that was call a friend. Oh but the phone feature and perhaps most important feature didn't work. It rang half of a ring and then cutoff. If someone called me it would ring half a ring and cutoff. So its safe to say that the phone feature doesn't work.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] xboxfanj:
Works fine on Vanir. I guess switch to that.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] xboxfanj:
Didn't have a magnet handy, but try this: http://d-h.st/zut
[One (M8) Original Android Development] David 617:
Works great.

Thank you!
[One (M8) Original Android Development] xboxfanj:
Keep flashing that for now on newer builds. It'll be merged eventually, just testing the cpufreq changes I put in there as well.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] David 617:
Great. Thank you.

I did notice that my phone is running a little hotter that normal.. I'm tethering from it. Usually it doesn't warm up at all. Now it is warming slightly.

Then again, it could be because it is 92 outside and I don't have AC ... :(
[One (M8) Original Android Development] paulg1981:
7-23 is the latest nightly correct?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] xboxfanj:
Looked into this; apparently CM broke a bunch of things with the upstream sources. Should be fixed soon.

What did you change? I'd love to merge anything that improves performance.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] big70tom:
92? Bahahaha CA central valley 106...I pray for 92
[One (M8) Original Android Development] kickassdave:
To be honest, I'm using the latest nightly and find it pretty darn smooth as is.

Although I agree if there is a performance enhancement to be had without battery drain/heat issues then yeah... It would be best merged.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] xboxfanj:
New kernel to test: http://downloads.codefi.re/houstonn/b4.img

just flash that using the flashify app and let me know what you think. I changed quite a bit. I merged myfluxi's interactive governor changes from the Nexus 5 kernel and ramdisk, updated to maxwen and Entropy512's Input Mediator and CPUQuiet drivers, enabled Qualcomm's Low Power Modes (retention and Standalone Power Collapse), fixed DotCase, and added Samsung's DVFS monitor.

Let me know how performance and battery life and any other factors compare to before. The kernel source is in the kk44-cpufreq branch of the same repo.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] David 617:
Can someone make another F2FS build (or teach me how to convert this to f2fs)?

Someone made one a while back and it was the smoothest my phone has ever been...

Thanks
[One (M8) Original Android Development] paulg1981:
Will the next nightly have the speakerphone fix?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] xboxfanj:
Good question. Our gerrit unfortunately is down and I don't have the permissions to merge it on github. I'll talk to Dave or Derek.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] paulg1981:
Thanks so much for taking the time :)
[One (M8) Original Android Development] kickassdave:
For anyone curious of the performance gain (with odd loss):

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/f2fs-put-to-the-test-against-ext4/

I would also be interested in this. Very interesting.

[MENTION=469447]xbox[/MENTION] -latest build with your kernel is a fantastic combination - thank you.

[MENTION=1007992]everyone[/MENTION], any way to revert the default blue text to something else? Even Flux theme doesn't overwrite some defaults which are causing some dark on dark conflicts etc.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] David 617:
I think your blue text is b/c you are flashing dho's builds. He has a custom theme he uses. Flash these from nuclear mistake - emccann.net/nuclearmistake/VanirAOSPNightlies/
[One (M8) Original Android Development] kickassdave:
Dirty flash ok? Really don't do it much anymore. But I've reset my phone so many times recently I really can't be bothered again lol.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] David 617:
on principle I always clean flash... but that's just me.

Yah, I'd really prefer DHO's builds. They noticeably feel smoother to me. But the blue theme just kills me...
[One (M8) Original Android Development] jay8302:
Seems like an interesting rom..I just wish it would he custom tiles
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Keithn:
Is there a specific recovery needed for f2fs on this or will twrp do both? I know on my N7 I had to use a specific recovery for it. There are a few scripts and things to convert roms to f2fs. If I know it works with my recovery/get the proper one I'll try to play with it.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] xboxfanj:
It was just merged to github and will be on the next nightly.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] David 617:
Philz cwm definitely works and I'm pretty sure the latest twrp supports f2fs as well.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Keithn:
I know TWRP will support it, but it needs to be enabled and it doesn't look like it is for the M8. I tried playing around with Philz last night and I screwed up my phone for a bit trying to get f2fs going. I'll play around with it some more.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] xboxfanj:
I don't want to force people (including myself) to convert. If there's a way to support both, I could be down for that though.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] David 617:
There is no way to run ext4 and f2fs simultaneously. These are file system formats.

A kernel can support both, but the user must choose one.

I'm pretty sure the vanir rom supports f2fs, we just need a kernel that supports it also. [MENTION=4328678]metalspring[/MENTION] added support to to his kernel a while back, but I haven't seen him around lately https://github.com/metalspring/android_kernel_htc_msm8974 . He was the one that shared an f2fs build on Google plus. (The post is under his real name... I don't remember it offhand). If someone can get ahold of him he may be able to help us.

I too was hesitant to convert at first, but the performance gains are undeniable. I used that build for close to a month (an eternity for a crackflasher like me) until CM came out with dotcase support.

Now that Vanir has dotcase also, an f2fs Vanir build may hold me through until Android 5.0
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Keithn:
Furnace kernel is supposed to support f2fs. I still haven't had any luck booting so far.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] xboxfanj:
What I meant is for the updater script to support both, which I think is possible. Obviously, you can't have multiple filesystems on one partition. His name is Chris Gibson btw.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] David 617:
lol i figured you knew that already... you are a kernel dev after all. respect.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] ULAMSS5:
So there's no PIE in Vanir anymore?

Plenty of other kitkat roms implemented it just fine, with CarbonRom's my favourite.

So is there a way to disable the navigational buttons and just use a PIE app?

Also, can't seem to mount/see my SD card. Still shows up in Recovery, but not in the ROM/connected to PC.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Keithn:
You could disable through the build prop if you really are sure you want to disable it and not just toggle it.

I'd format that sd card and see if that helps. Also test to see that it hasn't failed after.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] ULAMSS5:
Thanks, I didn't notice that I could toggle navbar off, I'll go take a look.

SDcard is fine, it's still shown in recovery(also shows on PC when mounted in recovery). Flashing another ROM, or a back-up, the SDcard functions normally on those ROMs. I've tried re-flashing Vanir, still doesn't work.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] _moelle:
i really like vanir, but isnt it possible to change the blue font to something more neutral? ..the highlight color blue is just used way too much. looks kinda weird on most common themes.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Keithn:
I'm not sure that you can toggle it. I'm saying that as long as you aren't looking to be able to use a toggle to turn it on/off you should be able to modify the build prop to remove it.

My sdcard is working just fine for me. Can you not write to it (KitKat related) or can you not see it at all looking through a file browser or in storage?

Hey, just realized the xcalibur kernel doesn't seem to support usb-otg for my ps4 dualshock, had to switch to furnace for the my car ride to the man United match. Any chance at support for it on a later build?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] xboxfanj:
Sure. Didn't know it doesn't support it, but I'll take a look at Alex's source and compare our USB drivers.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] bricky23:
This is much smoother than GPE. Really like it so far. Thanks
[One (M8) Original Android Development] paulg1981:
Will this work with f2fs or not? I am planning to use furnace kernel which had support for it? Thanks!
[One (M8) Original Android Development] kickassdave:
What method would you be using to convert. I see someone developed an app but it is for Nexus devices.

I'd be willing to give this a go
[One (M8) Original Android Development] paulg1981:
No clue, I was looking for some direction. Never run f2fs before but also willing to try. Maybe someone with more experience can shed some light.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] David 617:
Please let us know what you find.

There were a couple vanir f2fs builds in the past, so it should be possible to accomplish this.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] xboxfanj:
Don't see anything related to that that he has that I don't.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] xboxfanj:
Nope. I need to look into that I guess.

SD Card Problem

Thanks for a great ROM and kernel. I'm currently using one of your test kernels on SlimKat, and I love it. Unfortunately I'm having a problem with Vanir that makes the ROM unusable for me: it won't read my SD card. I saw that someone else had that problem (see post #105), but from what I can tell, the only suggestion was to reformat the SD card, and the problem apparently was not resolved.

The problem is that the SD card is not recognized by Vanir at all. I installed the ROM with a clean flash. The SD card was not accessible from any file manager. When I go to Settings > Storage, no SD card appears, and when I tap "Mount SD card", nothing happens. The SD card works fine on Slim, is accessible in TWRP, and works fine again as soon as I restore my Slim NANDROID. The only problem I can think of is that it's a 64 GB MicroSDXC card--any chance that's causing the problem?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] dandan2980:
OK so just noticed the sweetest notification tile is the equalizer. holy#@% I just now noticed it and been on this ROM all day.

Very smooth indeed, along with good idling battery life set by default. Reminds me of DanDan's (pretty sure it was you) tweaked Interactive gov settings on Furnace.

Also, I don't know what it is, but Brave Frontier actually runs normally on Commotio. Unlike PA and SlimKat, when the characters are attacking, the game doesn't slow to a horrible stutter on this.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mattyz:
Hello all, I am currently having a issue with my GS3 after accidentally installing the 4.3 update to my phone last night. I have been telling it no for the past 5 months, and last night I just hit the wrong thing. So this morning I came onto the forums to see about rooting the phone finally only to see that it can no longer connect to my PC. I also tried it on my laptop, only to find the same thing. The phone no longer even shows up in the device manger. However it is still accepting a charge from the USB port.

Phone Specs:

Model Number: SCH-I535

Andorid Version: 4.3

Baseband Version: I535VRUCML1

Kernel Version: 3.0.31

se.infra@SEP-83 #1

Wed Dec 11 01:109:13 KST 2013

Build Number: JSS15J.535VRUCML1

Hardware Version I535.10

I have tried searching around on google, and have done the following things, uninstalled the Samsung Drivers, and then ran drivercleanup and re-installed the drivers. Tried various USB ports/other known working USB cables. Reset the phone back to factory defaults, and cleared the cache. I also tried turning DM Mode on via the ##366633# menu. I uninstalled my USB controller just for giggles, but have gotten no where. Both computers are running Windows 7 X64, and neither of them see the phone in the device manager. I also booted the phone up and tried using the download mode to see if Windows would detect it, however it did not. If anyone has any thoughts that would be truly fantastic. I don't care to copy data to and from my computer via airdroid or any of the other file sharing apps, I just would have liked to have rooted the phone ect :(.

-Thanks

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wess786:
Hi y'all,

I'm currently using a Galaxy Nexus GSM version and I'm having the option to trade it along with 100 euros for an Xperia Z1 with 2 years warranty and no scratches at all. Before I had to buy the Galaxy Nexus (which is from someone else, it's not even new) I was using my beloved Galaxy S3. I loved it, but thanks to the crappy build quality of Samsung the display broke and the screen is black only now.

My question is, is it worth it to trade my Galaxy Nexus with 100 euros for an Xperia Z1 with 2 years warranty and no scratches?

Oh and by the way, isn't it strange? Because the Z1 is worth more than the Nexus and 100 euros..
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raziel123:
100 Euros for a practically new Z1 with Warranty?

that would be a bargain in my opinion,

Just make sure the dealer is legitimate, and the phone is not faulty.
