[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apphoarder:
Hello

I love this ROM, but I can't get used to the messaging style of mms.apk. I have tried the customizable mms.apk, but it lacks some functionality I like (breathing notification, "mark as read" button, option to set as default app).

I would like to play a bit and try to mod this apk myself. But I don't even know how to compile/recompile it. Multitool gives errors, and I am apparently too dumb to use apktool (the latest version just closes right away, and older version give errors while decompiling framework-res). I am on Windows 7 32bit with Java 8. Is there any other tool? Did anyone else mod the mms.apk?

phone call recording

Hello everyone , i just installed NeatROM V8 , coming from V6.4 . in V6.4 i could record my phone calls with great audio ,

as i understand it was recording the system audio and thats why it had such a great audio quality that none of the apps i tried could achieve .

all theese without any extra app . in V8 i dont have that feature , if i use some apps im afraid that they wont record with good audio quality,

( i have tried many apps in the past and none worked so good as this ) is it android related ? 4.1.2 compared to 4.4.4 , or something else ?

i really liked call recording on V6.4 . thank you for your time....

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shnjb:
Hello all,

I have the WM6 rom and I seem to be having this annoying little problem where the phone tells me that I'm roaming even though I'm in an area where I know from past experience I shouldn't be roaming

In fact, I can receive calls just fine with no warning messages telling me that I'm roaming or whatever.

This ONLY occurs when I'm using activesync for push e-mail with mail2web.

Why is this happening?

Also when I'm setting up the push e-mail I can't seem to enter "ad2" for mail2web... the field is dimmed and I can't type anything on it.

I don't recall having this issue when I was using the WM5... what gives?

I know thta I can set it up so that I won't have warnings but I'm worried because what if I am indeed roaming?

Then I would surely be charged for my uses.

Could this possibly be because I'm on the US T-Mobile network and this ROM in no way has anything to do with US T-Mobile?

Is anyone else having this issue?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] sandrobber:
answer

It is because you have a rom that is not carrier specfic it reads roams all the time on any network
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] _Nomad_:
I seriously doubt that...

Sounds like just another weird issue with this PRERELEASE crossbow rom
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] achick:
Uhhh... Are you quite sure of your facts there Sandrobber? If so, then that must be new to WM6, as I have a non carrier specific WM5 ROM and I don't get that problem....
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shnjb:
Well I would bet that he was just speculating since he posed on the form of a question.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] cellneuron:
It was there in WM5 long time ago, which is no bug at all. If you don't like the roaming prompt, just go to activesync->schedularing->check "using it during roam", all set.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shnjb:
Are you sure?

I don't recall setting that to "use this setting when roaming" on WM5.

Also, doesn't this mean my phone would check e-mails when I'm not on t-mobile network, costing me a fortune?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] cellneuron:
I don't think your carrier will charge your roaming fee. Which network are you in?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shnjb:
USA T-Mobile using the blackberry 19.99 internet plan.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] cellneuron:
I am using T-Mobile 5.99, no roaming fee.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shnjb:
No roaming despite using push e-mail with the "use this when roaming" box checked?

If that's a yes, sounds great.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] sandrobber:
Update

I am very sure infact I'm positive you can turn off the roaming indicator. If you dare go through the registry and find the settings for your carrier and apply it to this rom. Most of us(like me just turn it off beause I have unlimited raoming). I have experienced this first hand with I-Mates frimware on many of my phones. None the less here is where the key is to turn it off

Change the dword value from 0 to 1

HKLM\drivers\builtin\ril\"DisableRoamingIndicator" = dword:00000001
[ONE General] OmegaBlaze:
I see a lot of people are quick to flash AK, Franco, Tyr, etc before they even give the kernel that comes with the ROM a try.

From my personal experience, the kernel that comes with a ROM is always faster & snappier than aftermarket kernels (no overclocking).

Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but the kernel that comes with the ROM is optimized to perform best with the ROM. Optimization is the main reason why Android is one step behind of iPhones. I don't know about you guys, but I want my phone to be fully optimized which is why I stick with the stock kernel most of the time.
[ONE General] Klobal:
I guess I'm also one of these people who are quick to flash a aftermarket kernel.

But I think the aftermarket ones are the more optimized ones.

Anyway I never had problems with the stock kernels.
[ONE General] furrycurry:
I love the extra work devs like Franco and AK do. Sometimes I get some reboots with Franco but overall its a good experience. I just have some Franco loyalty from when I used his kernel on nexus 4 lol best kernel ive ever used. Not sure if I'd say the same about his one plus kernel but if there's any issues I'd blame cm not him :p
[ONE General] OmegaBlaze:
I used to be the same way on my older android devices.

It seems like now flashing a kernel is no longer need to improve performance (sorta)

The hardware on the oneplus one is beast & android has come a long way in terms of software.
[ONE General] jousa11:
Because I love the sound control in AK Kernel :)
[ONE General] OmegaBlaze:
Better than Viper or DSP?
[ONE General] jousa11:
I use viper as the audio processor AK's kernel just gives good audio gain without any distortion :)
[ONE General] NJGSII:
I believe the same. I get most battery savings from deleting bloat off the phone.
[ONE General] OmegaBlaze:
I do the exact same thing. I try and delete all of the unnecessary google play stuff as well as apps I don't use often. And use greenify as well.
[ONE General] OmegaBlaze:
I definitely have to try that out. I usually always skip pass it lol..
[ONE General] Dima_2005:
I use franco kernel because I get better battery with his kernel (compared to stock), and it's always up-to-date with most of the patches, while with stock you'll have to wait until the next OTA to get some patches.
[ONE General] m4soN:
Can you please name bloat stuff which still comes with Cyanogenmod what should be deleted? Would be helpful for me to get my phone as clean as possible/neccessary.
[ONE General] NJGSII:
Meant that with other phones I have
[ONE General] m4soN:
So, there is no stuff which still comes with systems like cyanogenmod which i can delete without getting any trouble? If yes, how do i know which stuff this can be?
[ONE General] zephiK:
Purchased Franco Kernel Updater and if I didn't use a custom kernel (or Franco Kernel) then I spent money on something I'm no longer using.

Also because I'm not a fan of mpdecision.
[ONE General] Klobal:
Same here switching between AK and Franco.

Both are a good choice.

But as mentioned before, the hardware of our phone is :good: so no need to flash a aftermarket kernel to gain more performance.
[ONE General] OmegaBlaze:
Why not? Intelliplug?
[ONE General] zephiK:
Anything other than mpdecision, I personally prefer Franco's hotplug algorithm which is his own implementation of powering on/off cores.

Mpdecision is Qualcomm's implementation of powering on/off cores.

I personally am not a fan of Intelliplug,

http://www.reddit.com/r/nexus4/related/158t1i/custom_kernels_a_guide_on_what_you_need_to_know/ has a great reading on mpdecision and why it is not good in their opinion.
[ONE General] Hzu:
I like to mess with my phone. Simply because I need a kernel fully optimised kernel for the device. Not to say that the developers aren't doing a good job, but in my case, a user sometimes knows better than the creator themselves.

Unless the custom kernels do not satisfy me, I'll revert back to stock.
[ONE General] dr.m0x:
This phone is fairly clean out of the box. About the only stuff worth freezing or deleting would be some of the google play apps if you don't use them. For example Google play books, news stand, or games.
[ONE General] zephiK:
This is true. That's one thing I dislike about Google. People complain about HTC, Samsung, etc including bloat ware, well... These Google Apps (books, music, games, movies / videos, etc) are all bloat ware. If we want them, well get it from the play store rather than having them preloaded.

That's one of the reasons why I use a custom rom as well. So these apps won't be preloaded.
[ONE General] brokenbmx06:
I used to be a flashaholic but to be honest, my Oneplus One has worked the best on this 38r kernel. Amazing sleep voltage recently and no downsides as far as I can tell. AK nor Franco could match. The bloat is annoying but It;s far too easy to disable a couple apps that I don't use and not worry about it.
[ONE General] gr4nchio:
I like to use kernels with support for USB fast charging. Although with the battery life of the opo this is perhaps more an habit from my past than a real need ☺
[ONE General] Notor1ouS-:
usually i use custom kernels (it was neccessary on S3).

but on the OPO, the stock cm11 runs perfectly and i get overall 7-10h SoT depending on what i do (wifi & LTE constantly on).

AK kernel is rly good tho, but franco kernel is causing problems only. not gonna use that beta kernel again.

attached screenshot was over a day with chat (hangouts, whatsapp) and browsing/tapatalk only via wifi with stock kernel. more than enough.
[ONE General] LNJ:
In general I find custom kernels great upon a fresh reboot and then kinda slow down after a little while. I used to love Faux and Fugumod on my GNEX, Dorimax on my S2 and Talon on my Captivate. But Optimus G and Nexus 5 onwards, I could not find one that was better than stock for continued fluidity when you're going a week without a reboot!

[ONE General] OmegaBlaze:

[ONE General] Elvecio:
What a sad thread, a lot of users managed to face the fact that the stock Oneplus software is pretty ok without mods. Boring :'D
[ONE General] OmegaBlaze:
tap to wake is in stock lmao
[ONE General] dylanraga:
shh dont let anyone know this secret
[ONE General] AcmE85:
I'm using the CM nightlies with the stock kernel included.

The only reason I change to a custom kernel is when something is merged that might fix stuff before the new nightly is built.

For example I allways switched to AK when there was a new touchscreen firmware out.

Or right now I am using AK with an updated WIFI driver and an unofficial CM nightly because there has been no official nightly since 10/13.

Just so you know, with my usage pattern I never noticed any difference in battery life on the oneplus one no matter which kernel.

I know my device and can tell almost to the point how much battery is left after how much screen on time.

e.g. with 70% battery left = 1,5 - 2 h SOT (data-only) or 2 - 2,5 h SOT (wifi-only)

50 % battery left = never been under 3 h SOT (data-only) since I have this device / on wifi-only around 4 - 4,5 h SOT

This all depends on the usage of course. Screen with auto-brightness.

The crazy thing is, I think that a lot of users are using their devices to look for optimizations (draining battery in this time),

mess around with kernels and kernel settings, governors, shedulars..., while most of the time the settings a kernel comes with are just well balanced.

Underclocking/Overclocking/Undervolting... :silly:

Also, a custom kernel

can

introduce new bugs.

Most important is to keep your device under control:

Which apps are running in the background that might drain your battery?!

I've seen users with 3-4h SOT and almost empty battery with the OPO, which is unbelievable in my opinion.

Either an app is draining too much, or you have ****ty reception. A kernel will not help much in this situation.

edit: thinking about it, if I were using stock cm11s, I think I would use AK Kernel constantly because of the time it takes until a new OTA with fixes is released...
[ONE General] bkeaver:
Why do I use custom kernels?? Because of this...almost an hour of screen time with a 6% drop in battery

[ONE General] Negen+1:
I use zanezam sabermod kernel and slimsaber not only for performance but for great battery life with zmooth governor and bfq for i/o .
[ONE General] shoman94:
My only reason for using Franco Kernel is for the Wi-Fi drivers. Other than that... I don't think it's any better.
[ONE General] oneplus:
Most custom kernels are slower than stock kernel.
[ONE General] bkeaver:
This is the most bs I have seen today... What are you basing this on exactly
[ONE General] Negen+1:
Most custom kernels are faster than stock
[ONE General] oneplus:

[ONE General] OmegaBlaze:
Where can I find that kernel
[ONE General] nX3NTY:
I'm still using stock kernel. Reason why I use custom kernel before is to control voltage and clockspeed.

Yes some might say whats the point of having quad core multi gigahertz phone when you underclock it but then again whats the point of having that if it have two femtosecond battery life? There are already performance tab in setting where you can lower clockspeed from there, and the battery life is damn good right out of the box. So now I dont find any reason to change kernel for the time being.

[ONE General] nitrobg:
Touchscreen is much more responsive on AK compared to stock.
[ONE General] OmegaBlaze:
Always been a placebo for me. How can you tell?
[ONE General] Franc38:
Weirdly enough, quoting your message says it all.... At least a noob as custom kernels go, for sure.

I use custom kernels for two reasons. One is that I've been using them since... way more than 5 years, so it's become a sort of second nature.

But I've used them that long because you can configure the hell outta them, if you want, and get what your after. Want to boost performance? You can overclock, overvolt, optimized schedulers and so on. Want good battery life? Same again, you can underclock, undervolt and so on. And all of that very quickly.

So you're away and realize you don't have your charger, you don't care much about gaming and all, just want the phone to last. Change some settings in the rom and in the kernel and you're good to go.

Play a game and find its a tad choppy, but you've got your charger with you: overclock a bit, overvolt for that extra bit of stability, change the governor and yup, you've made things faster.

I top that with using Boeffla Kernal (on the OPO and previously on the Galaxy S3) for added tweaks of the sound and display. But I'm always looking for the next kernel that'll give some nice features while remaining stable and fast and battery friendly.
[ONE General] nitrobg:
The touchscreen requires much lighter touch compared to the stock kernel, at least on my device.

[ONE General] OmegaBlaze:
What are some of the improvements you see when using f2fs ROM?

It was a placebo for me... (SlimKat-F2FS)
[ONE General] farangutan:
My reasons are try to extend battery life and to have some of the recent improvements from CyanogenMod without having to flash nightlys or wait for the next ota system update.
[ONE General] Giocarro:
After using the One for a month with stock CM11s kernel, I installed AK kernel to get rid of some micro-stuttering and improve general smoothness.

With a bit of tweaking I achieved good results and the difference is noticeable. Foot more details on specific settings go to AK kernel profiles thread.
[ONE General] Negen+1:
F2fs is faster than ext4 but ext4 GS already fast enough for most people. If transfer large files the time is a little faster but not by much. Read write times are hard to notice fast or slow. Btrfs for computers is an example to compare.
[ONE General] OmegaBlaze:
Wait until you guys Flash Lollipop.?

This thing is a beast with AK's newest kernel.
[ONE General] beren:
i think cm11s kernel is very good, one of the best stock kernel (compared to nexus's stock i.e.)

i prefer custom cos i am able to make a little underclock/battery saving but mainly because i find stock display colors washed out while AK has really vibrant colors.
