I'm currently uploading new build (09/07/2014). In about half an hour it will be up. Give it a try. I think I fixed touchscreen issue :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] MaDaLiNoSt:
Now I am testing aokp_jenad_unofficial_2014-07-09.zip :angel:

-Touchscreen is still not able to select items

(for now selecting it can be used with back button)

-C clock (lockscreen clock) is not resized

-396 MB RAM

-Launcher is still not resized for mdpi

I can not test more because I still have touch screen issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] midzan21:
For bold: minor issues for me and for [MENTION=5115703]bleached[/MENTION]

Italics 1: this option actually make some major changes on S2 and other SAMOLED displays because they prefer dark backgounds

Italics2: Even on friends S2 didn't detected all HW, so not an important thing for me and for others

BTW I should test it later, now I got some serious job and phone needs to work (when good old digital camera got broken, and you have this phonw with you with working camcorder option)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
No need to test this build. I basically want to fix touchscreen and that is what I'm focusing on. I will soon today upload a new build. I'll let you know :)

OK now touchscreen should be fixed. Uploading build now. Note that the old build is now removed, so If you see a 09/07 build, it's the new one :)

Edit: Uploaded
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] ahmedadd:
First Look ;)

Working:

1-

Touch screen working.

2-camera working

3-Radio.

4-Wi-fi.

5-Bluetooth.

6-RIL.

Not working:

1-Video recording.

some screen shots
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
Good. I'm currently making a new build.

-Video recording will be fixed.

-Disabled Auto-brightness

-Disabled torch and notification led in ROMControl.

The problem with launcher layout (and lockscreen layout) seems to be launcher specific. Other launchers work fine - BUT! they don't have transparent statusbar. I will try to figure this out.. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] ahmedadd:
another thing. there is no quick toggles in status bar
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
yeah, this is strange. You know what is even stranger? That if you flash gapps it works :P I really don't know why, but I googled it and found that someone else had a similar problem and gapps fixed it. I really don't know why there is such a dependency..

But I think that only a few people flash a rom without flashing gapps, so that is not such a big problem, at least for the time being. Not to mention that it is not jena specific. It is an AOKP problem I think..

Seriously, flash gapps and watch the magic happening:P
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] midzan21:
As far I know that is problem even with new AOKP builds (4.2+) and it still isn't fixed. So always have Gaaps ready :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] ahmedadd:
O.M.G Really magic :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
I will upload a build that is stable enough for everyday use, and will probably try to build cm11 with 2.x kernel. I would love to see Android L working with the phone, and thus I think that having a working cm11 with 2.x kernel will make life easier while porting Android L. However I might not make it... Will see :) I have nothing to lose by trying :P
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] midzan21:
Bold: please upload it before saturday so I can use it on vacation :D

Underline: you serious?!? If true than only Android 4.4.4 sources please :P
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
Ok I will upload before Saturday. One thing I didn't find in AOKP settings is the "Performance settings". Any idea? Anyone familiar with AOKP? Otherwise, you could use 3rd-party app like Kernel Tuner..

Finally, about kitkat, yeah I've been thinking about it sometime now. I know it is possible, but I'm not sure I have all the background to do it. But I will really try :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] ahmedadd:
If you have everything ready to start building CyanogenMod 11 please start to build it. :angel:

I want to see a new android version running on our mini 2.

And to be honest.... you are the most active developer for our device.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] midzan21:
That option is abandoned from 4.2.x M2 if I remembered good. So now we need to use some other Performace apk like Kernel Tuner as you written.

P.S.: I found this so maybe this should help to use for real AOKP Performance Control alternative (didn't tried but probbably should)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2444376

Note: video recording works but video is greenish on latest build (non-NFC model)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Ezzam_Itachi:
yeaahh .. I've tried Performance Control .. and it is useful and easy to use ... BTW, thank [MENTION=5115703]bleached[/MENTION] for this rom !! :victory: will try this as soon as possible ..
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
I have uploaded an NFC build and am currently uploading a non-NFC build (both 10/07/2014). Enjoy!

Known issues:

-Launcher and lockscreen Layout (I do not know if I will even bother fixing those as I focus on CM11).
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] midzan21:
Those problem is minor issue because most of poeple use alternative launcher like Nova (Prime - please buy it) or Apex. For lockscreen maybe [MENTION=5395003]MaDaLiNoSt[/MENTION] can try to fix it if he have some time.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] MaDaLiNoSt:
This is great. But can you ,,focus" to solve fm speaker problem? This bug makes me unable to flash an custom ROM as daily , on this phone. :mad:
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] MaDaLiNoSt:
Ok, I will try to fix Cclock but I need to mention that I still have low video performance with aokp... You can see it on jelly bean Easter egg ...and YouTube in stock browser.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Fallen_Knight:
im have a problem with vpn.. both psiphon and surf easy..even droidvpn and hss android have problem..cannot make vpn interface..it seems the same with cm 10.1 so the prob might be in the kernel..any help
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] TiTAN-O-One:
Dude, you can use online radios man. Tune In is a good app I've been using.

Sent from my S800 China Phone
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] MaDaLiNoSt:
Now I can't use anything! Is hard bricked on bootloader. :rolleyes:

WHY?.....click here!
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Arthur13:
is there any news about improved cm 11 bleached???
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
Well I've been busy but in the little free time I had I managed to succesfully build Cm11 with old kernel. However it didn't boot, and by the looks of it the effort to make it work will be too much and probably without meaning. So I then tried to build CM11 with kk-2.7-caf kernel, made by erickas. It works fine (I also used qcom radio and it works :)) but has kernel related problems (like occasional freezes, shutdown/reboot freezing) and of course WhiteScreen. So what I want to do is make display-caf by teamhacklg work with our device. I tried and I failed. Erickas also tried and I don't know if he succeeded, but by the looks of it it seems he didn't. switching to display-caf could perhaps solve the WhiteScreen problem. This is what I want to solve.

Also in CM11 there is the internal mount problem. For the time being the workaround I use is to completely disable internal storage and only use external sd-card as internal storage.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Antox97:
[MENTION=5115703]bleached[/MENTION], I don't know if I have already say by sending a pm to you but into last build for NFC model, camera doesn't work!
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
True.. neither does for non-NFC model I think.. Well, I used the apk I used in cyanogenmod.. :/ will do some testing and see if I find something. In the mean time, could you perhaps test with JBcamera+ ? It might work..

And sorry for not replying in pm, I just was busy.. I do reply almost always :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Antox97:
Yes, I've tried also with CameraJB+ but it doesn't work too!
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
[MENTION=4203213]midzan21[/MENTION] I have uploaded new builds. See first post for download links.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Antox97:
Does anyone tested new build for NFC model? Does the camera work? (I can't test in this moment because I need phone..)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] midzan21:
On jenad (non NFC model) camera works but, gallery and camera app is known to crash at no valid reason. Didn't tried with any other camera app, but I should give a try tomorrow.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
I could give you the cm10.1 apk to try if it works better, and perhaps use that as default in possible next builds..
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] midzan21:
Actually I tried with CM10.1 Gallery/Camera apk and still there was random crashes. I tried even with Camera ICS+ and Camera JB+ and only with ICS+ version it worked well. Now I'm on latest CM11 an it works awesome :)
[About XDA developers] Doormat:
Am I the only one having a lot more trouble with search since the change to the forums?

I've just done a search via advanced and keep getting results which have only ONE of my keywords.

I've tried using AND between the search terms, but it's still giving me the same result. There seems to be no option to 'match all words".

Please don't tell me that we can't do multi-keyword searches anymore?
[About XDA developers] pof:
This is being discussed on the moderators forum also: the search function only searches when the search terms have 4 chars or more. The forum admin tried to change the setting to something lower, so we'll be able to search things like "new rom", but it seems that vBulletin is ignoring the settings and the issue is being investigated... we'll try to have a "better" search as soon as it is "technically" possible :)
[About XDA developers] Doormat:
Cool - I'll see if I cant frame my search to use terms longer than 4 letters.

Thanks for the reply :)
[About XDA developers] HDuser:
There is also one other problem, when a post gets deleted then search will still find it however the user will not see the post (as it was deleted).

This to is being looked at.

Try installing the stock rom back using odin. See if it works. If it doesn't, then try the following thread,

If that doesn't work either, then your last resort will be to consult the Service Centre. Hope I Helped :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikewse:
When doing a factory reset some partitions are wiped from all their data.

How is the wipe done?

Are all flash blocks belonging to these partitions erased, or are only references cleared, meaning data could be recovered as long as not overwritten?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshuamink:
I'd say with some professional grade software it could be restored. Before Android 4.3 you'd have better luck as TRIM isn't built in. 4.3+ it is.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikewse:
It's about a Samsung Galaxy S3 on Android 4.1.2 so Trim shouldn't be an issue unless Samsung implemented it themselves.

Though, after running two seemingly serious recovery programs (Wondershare and Remo Recover) in raw ("deep") inspection mode I don't find any of the lost 8GB of files. The recovery programs do find the files that were newly created during the factory reset so the deep inspection seems to work (I gave them a raw 11.5GB image of the data partition extracted using dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p16 ... so they still had to work for it).

So it looks like this is not only about lost references but lost data is at least not making it out to the dd:ed image.

This could either be because all flash blocks were actually erased during the factory reset, or it could be because unreferenced block data is not making it out through the eMMC subsystem. It would be interesting to be able to read the raw contents / erase status of the MMC flash storage like can be done with nanddump for MTD flash storage.

Anybody knows of such a tool for MMC?

Or (returning to the original question), do the above findings in fact show that a full erase has been performed? (meaning data is irrevocably lost)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikewse:
In the end I traced the source code to see what is actually done at factory reset. The short story is that the device boots into recovery mode and erases volumes /cache and /data. On my device with MMC storage this means recreating the ext4 filesystem with a wipe parameter set to true. The wipe parameter will cause an ioctl(BLKSECDISCARD) on the whole block region, which will erase all blocks. Thus data is irrevocably lost.

According to this discussion http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1644364&page=42 this behaviour was new from Android 4.0, so in earlier versions data may be recoverable.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Albercook:
Wouldn't that mean factory reset would take a lot longer?

I'm know expert but if that was the case wouldn't a factory reset take a lot longer?

From what I read BLKSECDISCAED "Discard is voluntary. The device might ignore it silently. Also what you read back from the discarded blocks might not be zeroes — you might read back stale data or random data" from https://rwmj.wordpress.com/tag/kernel/

Doesn't that mean that if the factory reset was fast the the underlying block devices must have opted not to write all zeros so there would be stale data. Again I'm no expert.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikewse:
Block erase is a native operation on flash memory. It doesn't have to iterate over bytes and "write zeroes" as you suggest and thus is very quick.

The rest of your suggestions are already answered in my previous post. If you have an Android 4.0+ device with internal MMC storage (most do), and your distribution is using the default Android MMC driver (most do), then the factory reset BLKSECDISCARD will cause a native block erase on the whole /cache and /data volumes. Check the Android source code yourself if you don't believe it.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
This thread is to resolve all common issues with the camera on the LG G3 and to assist people in knowing how to use specific features to get the most out of the camera software.

Any interesting points raised will be added to the OP. I will try to split it into sections where relevant to make it easier to find what you are looking for.

GENERAL

How to access camera when screen is off

Hold the volume down key

Touch to take picture is not working?

Make sure the menu is not open (three dots in top right hand corner)

SPECIFIC FEATURES

* To be finished soon.*
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pilz:
The user needs to enable the shortcut for the volume down in the accessibility menu.

Camera laser beam

Is the laser beam really harmful to our eyes? Its pretty annoying when laser beam keeps blicking into eyes of people that I take photo :D
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pilz:
Are you being sarcastic? If not its an IR laser so think of a TV remote, which I seriously doubt we'll cause any ill effects.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zyronblack:
camera shots become slow

I own this LG g3 for 3 months and the camera shoots very well at that time but after some weeks after i root the lg g3 it became slow.. when taking pictures it takes 1-2 secs before it take a shot.. and i was wonderin maybe because i root it. and then i unroot my device and restore it from the stock.. my LG G3 is f400k but no good. its still the same the camera shoots slow. i have to wait for a couple of seconds before i can shoot again.. pls help me with this
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gotcha640:
Does root and rom affect the camera quality, as it does on the Sony phones?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zyronblack:
Not really i dont know what happen but the shutter speed of my camera became slow... and its sucks really
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 573W1E:
Is HDR mode enabled? These shots take longer to process.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zyronblack:
no it is not on.. the shutterspeed is slow compared back then...
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 573W1E:
What are the lighting conditions like when you're trying to take a picture? Generally if you're not outdoors and/or in bright light, then the perceived shutter speed can increase due to the lack of manual controls.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zyronblack:
Im in a well lit room.. normal room lighting's.. but even i tested the camera outside the house. the shutter speed im experiencing now is so much different before i notice a great significant of delay..
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 573W1E:
Where are your photos being stored, internal storage or an external SD card? These could have an impact on how quickly photos are saved and possibly delay capture. Is your selected storage device getting full or in the case of a SD card, is it a good quality card (what brand, what class etc.)?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zyronblack:
as i said i just unroot my device and i save my photo internally my device is currently clean now without any files just the stock apps....

Vandroid699 Hello, congratulations for your ROM, thanks ... The download link is running fine, downloaded the ROM and installed through CWM in a G7102T (sold only in Brazil) and everything worked perfectly, including the 3G.

Only the application of Digital TV (MobileTV_LTN2.apk) not working because my ROM is odexed.

Anybody could "Deodexed" this application to me when you have some time?

Thank you ...
