[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] tenshi_xp:
[MENTION=4643092]grinder777[/MENTION] have a thread of kernels
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] chetank628:
why the battery is so horrible with those new kernel your old kernels were super smooth but this new kernel lags also and battery life is also not so good
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] tenshi_xp:
For me is like previous release, only the first boot after update kernel had a big drain and take more time to charge, but after that is normal again. You can save battery if dissable google location services.
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] tenshi_xp:

IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR THE NEW RECENTS THEN DON'T INSTALL THIS RELEASE
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] exwan:
Lol. Why? Btw, what with the capslock.

Yeap. It's not there.
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] Panzukk:
Loving this rom. One issue that I found are the icons in google now launcher, they're much bigger than the normal. Sorry if I have a bad english
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] MounirHero:
Its because you have to change the DPI to 240, in this ROM it is set to 220
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] Panzukk:
how can I do that?
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] MounirHero:
You can do that by modding The build.prop

---------- Post added at 04:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:43 PM ----------

Search for: ro.sf.lcd_density=220

And change it to:

ro.sf.lcd_density=240
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] Panzukk:
can do this with root explorer? Sorry, I'm a newbie :p
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] samnettt:
yeah.

you can use other file explorers like efs, x-plore ,etc.

but, you should enable root access. in the settings of the explorer you are using and edit build.prop in root\system as a text.

that's all

best of luck
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] tenshi_xp:
The LCD density is set to 240(stock value) if you want the previous values edit build.prop located in /system

ro.sf.lcd_density=240

and change the 240 to other value like 220 and reboot, if you want more small icons try with 204 or 192

You can use apps like ES file explorer for that.
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] armadiljo:
For your information (and anyone else who's interested) I like to share an easy way to make adjustments to build.prop

You need to flash the attached zip, when you have a file tweak.prop in the same directory. That file only needs to have the lines to add/replace in build.prop. In this case

ro.sf.lcd_density=240

Hello developer. I'm looking for some information. Currently I'm using NovaFusion, but as far as I noticed, there quite some 'optimalisations' in that ROM that make my device uncomfortably unstable. Probably caused by a combination of JustArchi optimalisations, updated kernel, buggy f2fs-support and an (experimental?) GCC 4.8 compiler.

- If I don't want to flash your PA with f2fs-support, is it enough to use an older TWRP, or do I always have to change the updater script?

- Can anyone tell me what those JustArchi optimalisations do, and can you comfirm it's 'safe'?

- I noticed also this ROM gives credits for the NovaFusion team. What parts of this ROM is from NovaFusion and what part of this ROM isn't? I mean, is this something different or just another flavour for the same ROM?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] tenshi_xp:
This rom is based in novafusion sources device tree and kernel, just with some governors and schedulers added and device tree adapted for PA(novafusion device tree is for CM).

If you use and older version of TWRP the install will just fail because dont support f2fs, the updater script mod is only for allow to you set ext4 in /system instead of f2fs.

If you dont want f2fs support try other kernels like Andi kernel.

All info about JustArchi's ArchiDroid Optimizations

This rom is compiled with GCC 4.8 and kernel with Linaro 4.8
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] Balino:
JustArchi's optimizations aims to increase performance of the device by using different flags in compiling the ROM, totally safe.

About novafusion credits, tenxy is using novafusion sources as base for paranoid android ROM ( same ROM with PA touch).

And yes you have to modify updater script to flash rom in ext4.

Too late :rolleyes:

Hey any chance of having an aroma install version like for PAC rom in the next updates?
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] tenshi_xp:
Havent try so was not added in this release, but the next will have aroma installer too.
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] armadiljo:
Thanks. It looks like you found a new friend :) I installed 4.45 stable version, f2fs enabled.

Compared to NovaF CM11, it feels like I'm in heaven. In 20 minutes (time to install, restore and finish my coffee), I got rid of about all my previous issues. I'm not saying NovaF caused it, but I'm sure this is a working solution for me!

- youtube is working again properly.

- yelo tv is working again (probably was an issue related to SuperSU)

- MX Player is working properly again. Including background playing.

- Plex is working properly again, as long as I play video with external player (so MX Player)

- no more forced reboots when changing wallpapers

- SuperSU 2.02 is working properly again. (even though I granted permission, it asked me for permission every time again)

- faster reboot

- I had some Deep Sleep issues. Ok, a lot of deep sleep issues. Most important: DS Battery Saver couldn't put my device in DS. Now it works perfectly!

- Gravitybox is acting funky, which results in messed up status bar. (*)

- No more crashes when using themer/themes.

- Much more free space on internal memory than I was used to. (2.09 GB instead of less than 700MB free)

- Long press on home button should open recent app switcher. But on my device it doesn't do anything anymore. (EDIT: solved!)

- In the one or two hours I'm using this, battery life looks so much more promising than I'm used to. Great stuff!

It didn't work out to install it on ext4 with andi's kernel, but maybe I'll dive into that tomorrow. Or I'll leave it like this, that's possible too. (EDIT: it was an error caused by mac's archiver, solved by installing iZip. It's fixed now, back on ext4)

(*) I'm sorry for this noob question.

Where in PA can I

- find quick settings and maybe quick settings ribbon. (EDIT: I found it, so don't worry)

- something to 'tweak' my interface (EDIT: I found this, so I guess that's it for now :) )

Apparently I just can't find anything like Paranoid Android Settings in Settings. Nothing like that.
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] tauvan16:
what about clock freeze on this rom ? somebody have experience it ?
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] tenshi_xp:
Nice to see you have solved the most of your questions, Paranoid settings wasnt merged in PA 4.4 maybe will arrive to PA 4.5 but is early to know that.
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] turk99:
Yes, it happend to me too! I've solved it with a simple reboot.. Try it !
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] tauvan16:
how much you have clock freeze ?
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] Panzukk:
Netflix doesn't work ?
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] armadiljo:
I've had every single problem with my phone, but NOT clock freeze. Go to Titanium Backup (or settings - apps) and freeze (or uninstall) Clock and cLock apps. Clock freeze will be gone.

Oh ok. I thought I was dumb by not finding it :) Doesn't matter. For the moment I found all flexibility I want, with XPosed and some modules I'm used to.

[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] Balino:

[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] Panzukk:
Why the screenshot quality is so low?
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] armadiljo:
To me, it looks like a normal screenshot. Can you explain what makes it's quality "so low" in your eyes?

Internally, the command to make screenshots is screencap. So if you want to test if something's wrong with screencap or not, you can always try to make a screenshot by ADB. ADB command adb shell screencap -p | perl -pe 's/\x0D\x0A/\x0A/g' > screen.png works for me.
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] tauvan16:
why the new recent app like android L not show if I press long home button ?
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] tenshi_xp:
Because is not merged yet.
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] tenshi_xp:

[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] tauvan16:

what about PAC man release?

wow!

can't wait for it. :laugh:
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] midelpo:
After a month of use I can say with satisfaction that this is the best custom rom I've tried. The battery life is excellent as well as the fluidity and stability. Initially I had problems with battery drain (6h with battery) and 1ghz bug, I settled with the combination abysplug + sio. Abyssplug + sio in my opinion is the only combination that gives stability and battery life while eliminating the 1ghz bug. [MENTION=4198570]tenshi_xp[/MENTION] thanks for the excellent work!
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] MounirHero:
Is android L recents merged in this release?
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] PhoenixWyllow:
No.

Also, I'm using it on my nexus 7 and it's a little awkward, not to mention buggy at the minute. It does seem a little resource intensive too compared to current recent view. Personally I have mixed feelings about it as a feature.
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] albertusac:
Is this has clock-freeze bug?
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] jenaplisken:
Is it possible to add lockscreen shortcuts?
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] marmelada:
I have a small bug: when superuser prompt is shown I can't grant rights to apps, button doesn't work (yes, I waited 3 sec).

Overall I think it's not as smooth as cm11, it has weird hang-ups for split of second. I haven't tested battery life yet.
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] Hadei:
does this rom support usb on the go OTG function?!
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] MounirHero:
Yes it support OTG
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] tenshi_xp:
INFO

Now Novafusion team begin to build AOSPA, the initial release have some bugs but sure in the next will be solved, (they already solved the notification drawer bug) as you know this project is based in novafusion sources, so at the end of the day the rom will be the same. I will do one release more, like always on wednesday. After that this project will stop.

AOSPA by Novafusion

[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] turk99:
What a bad new: I don't know why, but it makes me feel sad

I want you to known that this ROM is the best I've ever try on my s3, a good compromise between battery life, speed, ease of use... In other word: what I want from a smartphone

Many, many thanks to you..
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] trd3v3lop:
bro it will never be the same. nova team is doing good job but i don't think they all doing it by caring about users' opinions. at least not mine -and i am sure there are a lot people like me- ;) this rom is great work. like other users i love it due to balance between battery and performance. if there is a thing missing, it is customizations and it can be added very easily. we like your jobs so if there isn't another reason for giving up the work you should keep going bro :good:
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] Suppresed:
their releases will be very irregular. Like they do with omni, slim kat, aokp.
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] chetank628:
where are the other setting..?

does parandroid contain this much of customization or rom is missing something i think parandroid have lot of options to customize i have seen that in your previous releases:confused:
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] armadiljo:
Of course I can consider switching to PacMan, but please reconsider your ideas about abandoning this project. There still isn't that much of a choice for S3 mini users, next to the ROMs from Novafusion. And honestly, they release such a pile of **** lately, I don't want to switch over to that kind of experimental ROMs anymore. Their ROMs are unstable as hell since a few months, they consumes battery like you have a washing machine connected to it, and they just don't care about their (quite large) user base. So please, reconsider ;) PA like it is, is a great compromise between a stable experience and good battery. We (or at least I...) love that!
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] Balino:
since 4.4 they removed a lot of stuff to keep changes with aosp upodate
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] grinder777:
Hi Tenshi_xp

did you follow Macs carbon and cm threads since yesterday?

IMO you should not give up:

You have the better kernel AND you are taking care for your users. This makes your ROMs much better then everything Novafusion is throwing out!

Keep it on and

One more here. Novalosers can have their site and roms. Until they start to act like real developers and stop being so ignorant, they can shove.....

Switching to your rom hoping that you offer more support and better newsfeed.

P.s. working on pc case now so i can start working on my own rom...
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] Balino:
this sounds a bit rude. DON'T forget anyone here isn't asking for anything, they are releasing something to let community ENJOY it, "IF YOU WANT".

Please stop insulting novafusion team member, beacause when they first brought kitkat to our device everyone around here put them in the olympus.

Kids.

They were good when they first release kit kat. But, after that it is more or less become worst.

[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] tenshi_xp:
Info

As i said before this is the final release of PA, why?

Because Novafusion team is compiling PA, and I use their sources, so, is the same rom.

Im already chat with the team and they and me agree in this will only duplicate an existing rom and of course you will receive a better support for bugs solution with novafusion team.

So i invite you to considere their AOSPA project.

I read all your replies and select some, now i let you choose what will happen with this project.

1) Continue compiling PA with other sources.

Yes, other sources means other rom, so will no duplicate an existing rom.

With which source?

Maybe with Golden-guy/Android-andi sources, but there havent F2FS support, and this means change PAC sources too.

I know their work but havent used their roms.

2) Compile another rom and stay with Novafusion sources

But which rom?

DirtyUnicorns?

------Edit------

This should be a non existing rom for our device

------------------

3) Relax and enjoy the new free time. xD
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] penreturns:
1st of all thanks for making aospa for our s3 mini n consider my suggestion building PA. Hopefully to see new ROM from u other than PAC! Cheers!
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] chetank628:
2) dirty unicorns would be a great option but i would like to suggest an omni rom since nova team has abondoned the all of here like omni roms they are good and have good battery backup pls continue with the omni...:crying:
[Galaxy S III Mini Android Development] grinder777:
That's a hard decision...

About F2FS:

I just switched back with data and cache from F2FS to EXT4 and in benchmarks F2FS is NOT better. System is still F2FS...

Also Novafusion has an installer now to choose between, so this would be not a big loss.

To have the same ROM with different sources could be really interesting.

To have Dirty Unicorns with no matter what sources would be great!

To enjoy the free time with a nice girl sounds best (for you) ;) !!!

Have fun!
