I think Android is meant to run at full memory most of the time. That's why they did away with task killers. Because Android uses a low memory killer now in the kernels. It's how efficiently the memory is used that matters. You can probably tell with a benchmark app like antutu.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sparksco:
Honestly UBERTC uses the same mods as sabermod toolchains. Different name, same game.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pfederighi:
Indeed. In fact, going to sabermod.net reroutes to github.com/UBERTC. I just assumed that the name had changed or they were two projects that merged into one.

I know this thread is for Lollipop, but since I'm still working with AICP, I think this is the best place to make this known. If I'm successful, I guess we could start a new thread.

I'm been experimenting with the latest Otterx AICP KitKat (version 7.0) in an attempt to get better battery life. I think I may have some success so far. Right now I'm seeing how long the battery lasts just sleeping. I'll let you know how it goes. Of course, you should have some idea of the success, or lack of, depending on how long it takes for me to post an update.

edit: Okay, I jumped the gun. I thought I saw only a 1% drop while I was at work the 1st day of testing. Apparently I didn't correctly observe the the start charge level before I left for work. Oh, well, back to the drawing board.

edit: I've made progress. I've managed to get better battery life, but now there's no audio. Grrr... I'll keep you updated.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sparksco:
No someone else owns that site. The real site is https://sabermod.com

I've stated this in various places across xda and G+ if you bothered following the updates.

SaberMod will never join or be associated with UBERTC, as there is literally no benefit in doing so. And they also mirror a lot of the code from sabermod in various places with absolutely no credit to sabermod.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pfederighi:
Dude, cool your jets. I don't follow alternative toolchains on xda or elsewhere. I didn't know anything about them or how the process works. I did a Google search and followed some directions that suggested UBERTC. I thought I'd try it and was pleasantly surprised with the results, so I thought I'd share. I'm sorry if it so greatly offends you.

Thanks for the info, though.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sparksco:
LOL you brought up the old site so obviously you knew something? If you knew where to download the toolchains from the old site but you didn't know about the new site. Just curious what made you think sabermod merged with UBERTC? Did someone tell you this? But then again you knew nothing about toolchains...

NP on the info.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pfederighi:
The directions I found, via google, listed three alternative toolchains: linaro, sabermod, and ubertc. They stated that linaro was for UI fluidity, sabermod was for raw speed, and ubertc was somewhere in the middle. I clicked the link that the directions had for sabermod, which I now know is incorrect, and it went to ubertc. The directions were a little old, so I, wrongly, assumed that since the link for sabermod went elsewhere that perhaps it was no longer maintained and ubertc was now the preferred toolchain. Now that I know that sabermod still exists, and where to find it, I will give it a try once I RMA my defective RAM, so it might be a while.

Anyway, I just wanted to see if an alternative could do anything to make aicp 8 nicer because it has "plenty" of free RAM (whereas aicp 9 has very little), but is somewhat jerky and slow. It's an improvement, but it still has plenty of issues. After using it for a while, I'm still not happy with it; it lacks the fluidity and stability of aicp 9 and the speed of aicp 7. It does have good battery life, though, which I have yet to figure out how to fix in kitkat.

---------- Post added at 07:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:00 PM ----------

I got everything done, but the git push always fails saying I don't have write privilege or something to that effect. Perhaps I'm not getting the </AICP/project> or the <refs/for/your_branch> part correct. I've tried everything I can think of, but it always fails. Do you have any tips on what I might be doing wrong? Thanks.

(yes, I know this post is lacking information, but I'm not sure what information would be relevant)

[Kindle Fire Android Development] pfederighi:
Alright. It's here. OtterX KitKat with long battery life.

The details: After much effort trying to fix the KK kernel, on a whim I thought I'd see if the LP kernel would work. It does. I used the kernel/amazon/otter-common/sound/soc/omap source folder from the KK kernel. That made sound work. So, in the end, it was a rather simple solution.

Here's the kernel source archive and the compiled AICP 7.0. The ROM is compiled with Sabermod. ART works (the included Launcher3 doesn't work with ART, so install a different launcher before switching).

kernel source: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7BjC3Ky49TVd19MNFQ3TWg5aHM/view?usp=sharing

ROM: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7BjC3Ky49TVeDVxUTAwU0NldnM/view?usp=sharing

Let me know what you think. Cheers.

Hello. Well, You did it mate:)

Great battery life in this build (b):D

However in my opinion Aicp has to much features , or linaro compilers isnt good for our kindles, whats making it little laggy compared to cm11.

I tried flashing kernel to officiall cm11, but I lost WiFi, and kindle rebooting it self :) but I think, i know where the problem could be. ( modules from Aicp are needed??) I try this.

There is a possibility to send this fix to cm team, or hashcode its needed to do this.

Regards and Thanks You [MENTION=4968340]pfederighi[/MENTION] once again for Your effort. Its nice to see that kindle fire ? community isn't dead!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Guitarman:
Thank you for your continued support for the Kindle Fire, flashing these experimental ROMs makes my day somehow. There seems to be an issue with the "Weather" service with this build....it is constantly running in the background and if I try to freeze it or uninstall it, I get continuous force closes of the system ui. I don't know about anyone else but uneeded running processes in Android are not something I take lightly lol

Thanks agaIn for your dedication
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pfederighi:
Yeah, I noticed it was always running, too. I force stopped it and got one complaint, but afterwards I had no trouble with anything. Have you tried restarting? When you installed the ROM, did you do a complete wipe? Sorry I don't have any other ideas.

---------- Post added at 09:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:44 AM ----------

Hmm... I downloaded the cm-11.0 repo and followed the build instructions on the CM wiki. It compiled. I did a `make clobber`, moved the kernel source out of the tree, linked the kernel source from my aicp-7.0 tree into the cm-11.0 tree, and it compiled. I installed the ROM on my KF and so far everything is running good. WiFi failed to connect on the first try, but did on the second (which I've noticed is a common issue with KF ROMs) and has been working fine. Right now I'm seeing if it will build with Sabermod and JustArchi flags. If it works, I'll post a link in the CM thread tomorrow.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lllukas:
Thats cool:) when i copied modules files, and set correct permision , then flashing boot.img from Aicp, everything working good. No restarting or WiFi troubles.

Batery life is amazing :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Guitarman:
I did complete wipes everytime but it seemed I was having WiFi issues.........I'll try it again with a freshly downloaded copy of the ROM :)

(update edit) I redownloaded the ROM and no WiFi issues......excited now to tweak it to the max and see this puppy in action!

I came back after all these years and XDA hackery is still alive and well. Even recent posts on an OG Kindle Fire. Unbelievable.

I dusted mine off and am firing up TWRP and Cyanogen and need any stable rom to give this device its last bit of life. I'm going to go with the most recent thing posted (aicp_otterx_kitkat-5.0-UNOFFICIAL-20140717.zip)

I'll report back with results.

Edit:

It worked really well. I got a few text to speech errors at first during first startup but now its smooth sailing.

It probably helps that I had TWRP already optimally setup.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] G4NG:
Ohmy...

This fire one gave me a lot of stress =(

When I finally got twrp recovery and flashed otterx boot 2.05 and twrp 2.8.5.0 I've wiped all that needed - dalvik cache, system etc, but this rom (aicp_otterx_kitkat-5.0-UNOFFICIAL-20140717.zip) won't flash((

And for now I have some kind of brick with only twrp working(( and can't copy any other rom cause my pc and notebook don't see device's flash when I connect it and choose "mount"(

Update:

I've continued to read the topic and figured out that after installing otterx bootloader I must convert all partitions. And moreover, I figured out that MTP method works on my laptop. I did convert system to otterx, downgraded twrp to 2.7.0.1 and FINALLY installed this build (but firstly without gapps), so now I'm gonna check everything else)

I have used SlimKAT and Paranoid Nexus. The main differences I felt were that Slim had some Slim related features like it had CRT screen off effect, options to use pie controls (even not in immersive mode). Its pie controls were very nice. And Paranoid had its own charms for example it has Android 4.4.4 while SlimKAT has 4.2.2. Also that Slim had some shake controls - pretty nice they were.

---------- Post added at 01:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:02 PM ----------

Also that Paranoid has pretty responsive pie controls though they only appear in immsersive mode. Paranoid has active development community. It has OTA. It's being built and updated on daily basis.

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neXus PRIME:
I think its a valid and different question than most people ask here.

All these ROMs have slightly different FRAMEWORKS. Thats it. No other magic. Just that.

MIUI, Chameloen, Touchwiz, Sense, LG, they all have different, very unique frameworks. But these ROMs generally have 20-30% differences in framework and rest is google based.

If u need further detailed info, PM me.

Maybe a couple of different apps, but all apps pretty much run on all these. Unless a specific closed source app.

If this has been answered, I have not found that answer, and it's not for lack of trying. So apologies in advance. I HAVE searched and pored through threads and pursued all other reasonable means to find the answer to this question.

I have a Verizon Developer Edition S5. I just upgraded from a Galaxy Nexus that I unlocked, rooted and flashed many times over.

On my S5 I installed TWRP and rooted it with no difficulty thanks to the good instructions in this thread:

[GUIDE] Installing a Custom Recovery and Rooting the Developer Edition Galaxy S5

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2746586

I'm not really familiar with Safe Strap since I came from a phone with an unlocked bootloader.

I see plenty of ROMs for the VZW S5, but most of them talk about installing with SafeStrap.

So here's my question:

Is any ROM for the VZW S5 suitable for installation through BOTH SS and flashing through TWRP? Are there any restrictions or limitations regarding flasing one of these ROMs directly through TWRP on an unlocked-bootloader phone?

Thank you in advance.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpcalhoun:
Retail S5 owners can flash only TouchWiz based ROMS using Safestrap. A Dev S5 owner can flash touchwiz or AOSP AND other ROMS. Normally the developer will specify whether a ROM can be flashed with Safestrap or not. Dev S5s can flash almost any ROM using a custom recovery like TWRP.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vfnewman:
Thank you very much.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpcalhoun:
To clarify my thread, a retail owner can flash only TouchWiz based ROMs with Safestrap. A Dev owner can flash any ROM ( a ROM developed for their carrier specific device most often) using a custom recovery like TWRP.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vfnewman:
Again, thanks. That really sums it up well.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vfnewman:
OK, let me ask a related question: can Safestrap be used on the developer edition phone without problems? I understand it's not necessary because the DE phone has an unlocked bootloader, but Safestrap looks convenient. And will Safestrap work with a non-Touchwiz-based ROM?

Thank you
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theyrealone:
Hello everyreader, I am an experienced-noob to android.

I got few questions after looking around in the forum and reading guides over the week and failing over and over again...

1.What is the use of "ROM" in android, by 'changing',or having a custom ROM what could be the benefits (please could you be specific on available things - i know i can have 'improvements' in performance but that's very general thing to say).

2.What are the benefits of Rooting, what is the difference between launching a "super user" application from the google play?

3.There are many guides mentioning TWRP, what does it stand for? where can i learn more about these??

4.Android and an OS is working weird from my perspective:

Flash Chip: Internal Storage + sdcard

external sdcard: extsd

On tablets specification I only see the total space of flash chip,

not internal storage, up-to now i understood the somehow- magically there are some things that could re-arrange the partition and allocate more space to internal storage, why is it so hard to do?!

5.theoretically if i were to use Link2sd could i download an app which is larger than my total internal storage

6.My tablet is not recognized by the computer what do i do? (not any adb, i have no drivers\ see any guides for this).
