if i understand from [MENTION=4525399]Grigster[/MENTION] comment, a third-party keyboard could make back button not functional.

i don't use third party keyboard and i never had this problem.

i only use the default one ondemand and row, back when i still have my i9100.

many thank mate. i really appreciate it.

the slimsaber codes are basically buildable for other devices. i just don't have time to maintain it. that's why i'd be better if there is someone who is willing to maintain it. :)

skype

Does Skype do problems for someone else? I can't make and receive any calls. Its ringing once and then Skype is reopening!

---------- Post added at 07:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:38 PM ----------

And BTW I've reinstalled from scratch and the same . Skype updated something and is not working on this ROM. Please fix or I'll be forced to change on 4.4.4 and I don't want!

[MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION], is this project dead or do you have a surprise for us?

I know that I am not supposed to ask for any new updates but I (and, probably, am not the only one) would really like a new version with (nearly) all the bugs fixed and security updates from the newest KitKat (cherry-picked, I don't really know how to express myself to be easily understood with this terminology).

Until then, all the best!

:highfive:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
currently i don't have time to maintain this reborn :(

there have been fix for sdcard bug in KK. you can try SS KK again...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sien1996:
You mean the daemon fuse bug is gone? :eek: I haven't been following that thread anymore.

And happy new year everyone!!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Grigster:
I was just wondering.

I am currently running SS KK + DorimanX and up to now it seems solid rock stable.

What bothers me the most if that I choose a ring/alarm/notification tone from External SD Card, after a reboot I have to choose it again as it disappears and it is replaced by random number :confused:.

Nevertheless, both of your work projects are amazing! ( I know I am a bit perfectionist, however, I am just asking).
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
yes, music bug is completely fixed on kernel side. if you use custom kernel make sure that kernel is patched with the fix.

I've got a problem that's been happening for about a month now - Google Play Services keeps force-closing with the error "Unfortunately, Google Play Services has stopped". It happens daily. I can temporarily fix it by clearing Google Play Services cache but this only lasts a few hours. I read that it's something to do with GPS/location services since the last google play update. Is there a fix for this?

DorimanX for JB, couse rom is JB based... Use latest from [MENTION=5811506]gsstudios[/MENTION], trimed if ur phone is not affected with Emmc buging chipset... Read carefully. If it is not, jost follow instr how to Trim partitions and go outside and do some kung fu stuff ;)

Not for JB, please use kitkat version, DorimanX v10.x branch.

This rom has Mali v3 GPU drivers ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nerubian:
I changed some apps permissions recently. Maybe you should clear cache and dalvik then reflash rom, or just reflash.

Alternatively, you can check security-->privacy and modify from there.

Btw, latest build runs good and without problem. So we have Supersu as default also in this version, or still the same? I am using Supersu, do i need to do anything else like removing the superuser or what?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
sorry for late reply, i took a look your logcat yesterday. unfortunately, there is no indication that all sensors are collapsed.

i'd say, try to full wipe again and don't install any mods or any battery-saver related apps, just usual apps like facebook, whatsapp, etc.

perhaps, your issue was caused by a particular app.

try to change modem. i don't have this issue till now...

there is no koush superuser app and its binaries anymore. i have replaced it with chainfire's supersu.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Stef021:
Thanks for this ROM fusionjack, nice to see 4.3.1 running again. Kitkat has music problem on our device so this is good ROM to use. I just miss ART, but this one is really stable:) :thumbup:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nerubian:
I will check and try full wipe for next build. I have other questions:

Could you add some useful features from 4.4 builds? I know it's important to keep the rom stable but if it's possible we can have some new things to cheer us up from time to time :)

For example, lock screen album art is a really nice feature from 4.4 builds. It also works with Spotify and other 3rd party players. I tried related xposed module but didnt work. Could we add it at least as an option?

Another one is shake to lock security feature and some new lockscreen options. Is it possible to implement these?

Kernel question

Hey there:)

I'm keen on trying this ROM, I'm just not sure about the kernel part though and obviously don't want to brick my phone:) I flashed the Omega ROM a few months ago and remember having had to flash a new kernel. If I flash Slimsaber, do I need to flash the kernel that comes with it as well? This is my device at the moment:

Model Number:

GT-I9100

Android Version:

4.1.2

Baseband Version:

I9100XXMS2

On another note, does anyone know how LightSaber compares to Omega?

Thanks! :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Gad81:
Is anyone have problem with lose network?I have,change kernel,modem,and same problem.Every other is just perfect :)

Послато са GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
the rom always comes with a kernel. our device shares the same partition between recovery and kernel. therefore, there is no term install only recovery or only kernel. if you flash kernel, you also flash recovery and vice versa.

for the topic brick, it is important that you have a safe kernel/recovery to do the wipe operation from recovery. so, if you already use philz recovery or any safe recovery, boot to your recovery and follow the installation instructions in the op in the correct order one by one and you'll be fine.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
when you flash modem, did you also flash the RIL? don't flash any RIL, flash modem only. we are using open source RIL.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Guit4eva:
Awesome, thanks for the fast and detailed reply:) I should be good to go then, gonna download it now :)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Guit4eva:

I've just install the ROM, now trying to install the Aroma gApps. It's stuck at Optimizing Caches :/ What should I do?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
try another modem that suited to your provider or latest one the MS4. i'm using MS4 and it is fine...

see installation instructions in op. the link is there.

reboot to recovery and wipe dalvik cache.

otherwise, do a full wipe again and flash the minimal gapps
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Guit4eva:
I tried reflashing, but now I have a real problem:

When I booted into recovery, I now had TWRP. Anyways, I used it to do a full wipe and then attempted to install. It failed with:

"Error executing updater binary in zip ... "

Drats, what do I do now? :/
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Guit4eva:
No worries, installed Philz recovery, all working now. Great Rom! Super fast!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
it is true that this rom uses twrp.

you shouldn't use philz recovery after flashing this rom since the stock kernel will be replaced as well.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Guit4eva:
I had to use Philz recovery to install the ROM, and it seems to be working fine? Should I not just leave it how it is now?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nerubian:
If you flashed rom via Philz or another recovery, rom's kernel and recovery would replace the existing one. So, you don't need to do anything for removal. Of course, if you like you can install another kernel.

A few problems

I'm having a few problems with this ROM:/

1) Firstly, after installing this ROM my phone is no longer rooted? How can I re-root it easily?

2) Secondlly, the charging time is ridiculous. With the usb, my phone is charging at 1% every 5 min. That means it will take over 8 hours to fully charge?

Does anyone know what I can do to fix the above? I really like this ROM and would prefer to keep it as my daily
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
you are really new to aosp right? [emoji16]

1. go to settings - about - click on 'build number' 7 times - go one step back - now you have a new menu 'developer options' - choose 'apps and adb' to enable root.

2. usb charges really slow. use wall charger.

Move mobile settings to the main setting list

Set animation scale in developer options by default to .75

Only if you don't set anything.

First of all thank u for having the zest to recreate a reborn version of slim 4.3.1 rom,a really good job!

I had a prob though wich was parent in initial release from slimteam,that when i deleted the ringtone,alarm,notification folders and replaced them with others having the tones i prefer, after reboot it shows in settings the deleted tones and nowhere the new tones,is there a solution to this?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Facuu:
So after some weeks with this one, can someone say if it's better than the other jb builds? Not only with the other 4.3.1 but the other 4.1.2 and 4.2 and obviously comparing to kk too

How is the battery going on here?

Thanks a lot!

Three questions regarding use of rom:

1 - there is the option to autoswitch from 3G to 2G when there is lockscreen ?

2 - In which way i can set quiet hours form ... to... ?

3 - which alternative kernel i can use Apolo or DOrimax and which version ?

Thank

Hispa
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Grigster:
Flash it! It is the smoothest ROM available for S2. It outperform even the 4.4.4 (which has not been fully optimised for our i9100 yet).

The battery lasts enough for you to get your job done! 1 day with data ON all the time and 2 days with light internet use, calls and SMSes.

And for those who are asking for Kernel's alternative, my opinion is that you should keep the one who comes with this ROM. It is compiled with SaberMod and has many optimisations (see the OP) that blow away another custom kernels.

Hope I have helped you! Cheers! :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] stefan_city:
[MENTION=4525399]Grigster[/MENTION] use the default kernel settings? Cpu freq 200-1200 and ondemand/row?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
well, if you ask my personal opinion, both slimbean and slimkat are good. they have prop & contra and different features, but i still like slimbean more than slimkat. at the end, it's user decision. you can try one week with slimbean and another week with slimkat. :)

1. i'm not sure what you mean, but there is a 2g/3g tile.

2. slimbean has quiet hours in settings - sound - advanced options - quiet hours. it is not the latest one from slimkat.

3. i'm not following custom kernel. so, i don't know if they still have for jb. you need to inform by yourself from their threads.

thanks for feedback. :good:

for the kernel part...well, let me put like this, if you don't need other features like bln, you can stay with stock kernel. the kernel devs have also put a lot of effort to make their kernel performs better than stock one. :angel:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hispanico957:
Thank FJ

regarding question 1 is an option that when the phone has lockscreen pass connection form 3G to 2G...

P.S.

Also me i come back from 4.4.4 slim :)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Grigster:
I use Pegasusq and Noop, since this is what I have found to be the best combination for me.

You can try it and see if you are experiencing the same. :D

[MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION]

P.S.: Sorry for my previous post, now I see that I made a mistake: "optimisation" instead of "optimisations".

P.P.S.: And for the kernel part, this is just my thought and should not be taken as something mandatory. I feel much safer and more relaxed with your version of Kernel than others. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Cirra92:
I guess the media scanner did not finish it's homework :) Try to force media scan upon reboot, I have had a similar issue...

You are talking about battery saving mode in network options, when you turn off the screen, network changes from 3G to 2G? If yes, I think that setting is long gone :)

[MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION] I had to disable CellBroadcastReceiver since it triggers SMSDispatcher wakelock in my device :D Other than that, smoother rom than ever before :D

[Galaxy S II Android Development] nerubian:
I think the builds are getting better and better. I know it's difficult to add new features to and old version. I'm now using stock kernel with pegasusq and row. As known, the only real thing I miss is the sound dB boost from Stweaks. I'm trying to get used to it.

I think if we won't have other future versions of Android for our device (it seems so), this ROM will be stable and reasonable choice for people who keeps the device longer.

Click the link in my signature for the lock screen notifications. You're on the right track with DashNotifier but I bet you missed the step to enable notification access for Dashnotifier. The link tells you exactly what to do :)

Sent from my Nexu5
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hispanico957:
I read your post especcially at point:

6a. IMPORTANT [4.3, 4.4]- Allow Notification access for DashNotifier.

On my ROM (SlimKat), this is under Settings>Security>Notification access, where I click the checkbox for DashNotifier. Your ROM may list this in a different location, but you still need to activate this setting if you're on 4.3 or 4.4.

6b. IMPORTANT [4.2] - Allow accessibility option for DashNotifier.

This is usually under Settings>Accessibility>DashNotifier, and turn this on. No need if you're not on 4.2.

...but no solved... always and only clock.

If on lockscreen, where i see clock and points for my sequence, if i i go to right i see clock and the notification...

If you are on KitKat right now, just do a full wipe!! and then flash 4.3.1. Nothing major. Good luck.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
i'll take a look later...

kernel or recovery, both are the same...our device share the same partition for both of them. this means if you flash a kernel, you also flash a recovery.

like damnation333 said, if you are already on safe kk recovery, you can skip recovery part and proceed to full wipe.
