This is quite little compared to mine. :D

Right now I'm using roughly 140 apps, so at least around 100 discounting for ROM and GApps. I remember ace2nutzer using around 130 and still have no issue.

Also, in my usage even with heavy gaming (opening and closing coc for the whole day) still gives a SOT of around 2-3 hrs. And around 4 hours with my relatively normal usage (which is quite high on multitasking already).

And I haven't actually tried much the power saver profile. I tend to stick with the performance profile all the time :D

As an addition, [MENTION=5840412]ace2nutzer[/MENTION], would it be possible to have another profile like extreme performance where we can use it without caring about battery performance? Would be handy at times when I'm using it not for from a power outlet.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Culateralligator:
When you say didn't set anything, do you mean for Greenify or for all alarms and wakelocks?

I guess you know this thread for Amplify and the other apps:

http://xdaforums.com/android/general/guide-extreme-battery-life-t3095884

I've set Greenify delay to 1 hour.

If I'm gonna do multitasking or I've just used a heavy app and phone feels slower, I use the widget "hibernate now" and RAM instantly cleaned up!
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] lace_hvc:
No deep sleep issues and I feel the RAM is emptier with services disabled, also less wakeups. Keeping the phone untouched after a full charge drains the battery around 0.8/h and awake time is <1min.

For a whole battery cycle awake time is 1%, deep sleep 90-95%.

Yes, i know that thread. Also read this one: http://xdaforums.com/android/general/guide-0-0-hour-idle-battery-drain-stock-t2973588

Then I combined both and saved it as a word file. But I haven't touched Amplify yet since I dont have many wakeups and not much wakeup time (Icing wakes it up for a few minutes but people reported that it is not safe to limit it).

I have many greenified apps and system apps. Also turned on wakeup time coalescing and gcm push for greenified apps in greenifed-xposed settings.

The only one that gets frequently turned on is Line messaging app, with many alarms. I will see if 'un-greenifying' it changes battery life much.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
Don't use such junk apps.

The proper way to optimize the System is:

1. Configure the whole system (check all settings from the rom + all apps)

2. Freeze or delete apps u don't need.

3. Disable all receivers for apps they don't need to stay active.

Done !

For doing this 3 steps u only need to download one app (autorun manager or disable services).

It's really not needed to download 5 apps for just keeping the ram free or disabling apps.

For me i can say: i don't have any Problem.

Everything works as it should.

[MENTION=5701712]shaqman89[/MENTION] i've tested with zram 300mb... And after around 12h usage the used swap was always around 100mb. I can't reproduce your issue
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dr360r:
What is there to test on build 20160622?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
Only Amazon pics.

I try to fix it.. I don't want to left this rom with that bug
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dr360r:
Well, the bug is still there.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] shaqman89:
Yeah, I kinda admit it's hard to reproduce in short term. It usually happens to me only after days (3 days at least) and while sustaining that typical usage (switching to coc/very hungry RAM apps every 30 minutes or so). If I don't switch between apps that are too high in RAM usage that often, I could easily use this phone without any lags for weeks.

Anyway, right now I'm using 512 MB, lets see in a few days whether it actually helps or not. :)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
Ok Guys .. some News:

I've found out that this

Build 20140308:

http://fs1.d-h.st/download/00104/WhJ/cm-11-20140308-UNOFFICIAL-codina.zip

has working Amazon Pics :) it's Android 4.4.2 .. but anyway it serves nothing due of not working live-video-stream :D

The Fix/Bug for live-video-stream + Amazon pics, is in the lib: libwebviewchromium.so

Today i've spent around 10 hours in order to build Chromium from Google Sources 4.4.2 ... but i had always compiling errors :(

I think we can completely forget, that bug will stay for ever, unless some day someone is able to fix it, or CM Team will Fix it.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dr360r:
Then why not replace the stock browser with Chromium?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] isaak:
Annoying bug, I have it on Vanir 4.4.4 for S Advance.

You can try to explain your issue to CM developer channel (#cyanogenmod-dev):

https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/CM_IRC_channels

(once I received feedback in a #twrp channel after 11 PM, according to CEST timezone)

Or you can write a detailed post with your compiling errors and I could get some attention for you, asking around.

I'm new in these things, it's the best I can do right now.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] :
Hi there! Does someone have an idea, why my SIM card isn't working after installing the latest version? (Had the stock ROM before.)

The lockscreen states something like "No SIM card" ("Keine SIM-Karte - Nur Notrufe" ). Using the combination *#06# shows up a number which seems to be the IMEI. (If I remember correctly there were two different Non-NFC versions - I guess I have a first generation Ace 2??)

I tried using the Canjica-ROM (from 2.3.6) 1 year ago, but I also could not use the phone. I changed then to stock rom 4.1.2 - and everything worked (but it was so annoyingly sluggish that I bought a new mobile)

Update1:

I tried to install the modemfs binaries with CWM from this thread on android-hilfe.de "baseband-xxxx-kein-mobiles-internet.585873" (I'm not allowed to post links) - but that did not have any effects.

Is it normal, that modemfs is not mounted in the CWM mounts?

Update2:

I disabled the SIM PIN, but that didn't have any effect.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
@up

don't flash every File u found on the Web if u don't know if u really need it.

As always: if someone think he had "misflashed" the Phone, and want to have it clean like new, the only clean way is to flash a 3-parted ROM .., then latest Stock 4.1.2 JB(required!!) ... and then any Custom ROM here.

btw: if u even don't know which Model your Ace 2 is, then this is not a good starting point.

I suggest to remove the Battery and check the sticker ... there u should see the Model number.

as for cwm: there is only /system + /cache required.. .. and when installing some Software ... depending what it is, the updater-script will mount needed partitions automatically.

Because a lot of Apps rely on the lib libwebviewchromium.so .. that means they will still have issues with some pictures .. even if i'll add Chromium browser. So it'll Fix Amazon pics only on that Browser... and unfortunately Chromium needs to much RAM ... no go for our Device here. But as i said, at least on CM Browser switching to desktop version will fix that issue as well. (better than nothing)

Thanks for the info !

Some say it has something to do with our GPU Mali-400 .... dunno.

S Advance uses almost same Hardware like Ace2.

btw: for now i'm just tired to try to get it compiled with Google Sources ... maybe in the future i'll try again.

So far i tried many things .. nothing worked. But what i didn't test so far is if it'll work with webview sources from CM13 ... since it works fine on CM13 ! - But it'll need to use different Compiler for C + JavaC.

Anyway if someone has some how know, u can try to compile it by yourself ... it's not complicated to get everything working that CM11 can be compiled... later u can perform various tests to fix webview.

If somebody is interested to learn it, i can help here in this thread, (pm's will be ignored)

Here u can find all the needed Repos with all needed patches for the whole ROM ... (they are already applied)

(except of Kernel Sources .... just use prebuilt kernel by me and include in the build)

https://github.com/ace2nutzer?tab=repositories

other than that, there is only a few things needed - some special tricks, to get it compiled ...

(buildscript, dummy files, clean-up-scripts and so on ... )
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] :
Ok doing a clean install.

Update: Didn't work first time, tried CM 12 did not work either - cleaned and inserted the SIM cautiously again now it works :silly: thx

Hi,

I notice something strange today. When I'm doing stuff on recovery, I'm seeing Error /cache/recovery/last_log nos space left on device...

Maybe it's since I have reparted...

But I could install the last rom, no problem. It's just strange. Anybody knows why ?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:

wipe cache
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] lab34:
Thank you. Last rom is running on my phone :)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] btb55:
I decided to give the Ace2 a fresh installation as I'd done a number of dirty flashes to get up to the current release. I reflashed stock JB xxxxNA1 in ODIN, then following the guide installed CM11 - Build: 20160616 Kernel: Build: 20160613, and this time did the repartedv1.0. Everything went well, I switched storages over in NT settings, no issues installed all my apps. Then I wanted to install V4A in CWM like I've done before, and although the zip flashed with success it didn't show up after restarting. I switched storages back, without knowing why, but just to try, re-installed in CWM and still wasn't there.

The way I got V4A back was from a Ti backup, restored the V4A app and all good and working. Question really is, why couldn't I get success when installing the zip in CWM? Is it do with reparted as I've done it before that way on this ROM.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
No idea ... Check your update.zip where it's trying to install ... and check if that partition has enough free space at all.

(U can check free space by typing "df" on terminal Emulator.)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] RyxeL:
cannot updating apps over playstore, it got stuck at installation process. I'm using latest ROM+kernel+gapps from FTP server
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] beardedpanda:
@ up

Any error appears while you install the app from plays store?

Wipe cache and try again.

BTW: This ROM is only for Ace 2, I see that you posted your message from OnePlus One.

You only need to install the ROM and gapps. Kernel is embedded inside the ROM package.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
check also free space ... if everything is free enough ... except of sdcard0 ... this is normal after repart_v1.0 .... then u can try to switch storage --> sd0 to sd1 or sd1 to sd0 ... reboot system and try again.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] RyxeL:
[MENTION=7332124]beardedpanda[/MENTION] thanks, it's work

btw I'm using codina as my second phone
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] LyrixTheDj:
Same thing bro, but eventually i decided goes next and ordered a Chinese Xiaomi Mi4c, still waiting parcel. May be it little bit expensive than LG K3 (i have no idea about street price, in Russia it still not announced), but it have all stuff of "iPhone's".

I spent for 3 Gb RAM | 32 Gb ROM version about 860 PLN (215$ or 14000 Rub, darmowa dostawa :) ), 2gb|16gb sell start from 506 PLN, i believe it is not so expensive for this hardware stuff.

PS: Sorry for off topic, guys!
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
No, just remove line that try to mount /vendor.

It is not needed to mount vendor, as it's on /system/vendor.

Anyway try to mount /data manually in cwm before u install this app.

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] beardedpanda:
Did you repartition your phone in any way?

Try the repartiton file (ODIN) version from FTP. It should solve the problem. If not you have to:

1. Flash GB 3 files ROM

2. Flash JB ROM

3. Flash this ROM
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
u only need to rename in /system/priv-app the app: Trebuchet.bak in Trebuchet.apk

(but it's not recommended as it's buggy + laggy)

Just wanted to say a BIG THANKS to all involved. Since Samsung's JB was so horrible that the device was practically useless, I was running 2.3 till recently. However more and more apps won't support GB, so I had to do something. CM/Canjica + ace2nutzer kernel gave my old device some fresh air, and it's running way more smoothly now compared to even 2.3. No bugs so far, phone is more snappy than it ever was with a Samsung rom.

Can I install KERNEL ONLY in my Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 Gingerbread????? I'm hoping that the author is still active :(

I asked this because when I tried to flash the kernel by following the instructions in the PDF, my phone boots then go back to recovery mode. It always boots on recovery mode. :( Please reply ASAP :(
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:

Pls edit your post and remove the full-quote. thanks.

This kernel is only for Android 4.4.x ... at least for now ;)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Shnxyle:
how can i upgrade my Galaxy ace 2 from gingerbread to 4.4.x? I can't find any tutorial here. :(
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Culateralligator:
First update to 4.1.2 official Jelly bean stock with Samsung kies via PC or directly with the WiFi of your phone via OTA.

Then, you can install this custom ROM.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
download ODIN from my Dev-Host .. then just download the latest Stock ROM JB 4.1.2 for your Phone Model from any Samsung Servers.. and flash it ..

after that, u can install CM11.

EDIT: Culateralligator was faster :)

Anyway the best method is to flash the STOCK ROM with ODIN. (safer and cleaner)

I'm in Jelly Bean now! :) Thanks for the help!

I downloaded Jellybean firmware MG2 @ sammobile. I flashed it using ODIN.

Now I have a problem.

I flashed CWM using stock recovery then flashed SU in CWM.

After rooting, I wiped the cached and da dalvik.

Then flashed the kernel and the NT app.

After I reboot, it showed samsung GT-I8160 but after that it hangs on a black screen.

Already tried to wipe data then cache then dalvik then flash again the kernel and NT still the black screen is there.

Help?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] [-GuTi-]:
Again, why do you need SU?

Stock recovery->flash temporary recovery->flash kernel->power off->wipe->install ROM->install google apps->reboot

P.S kernel for 4.4.x ROM, not for stock

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
yes since months .. i was just too lazy to fix it up .. since i thought almost nobody read logs.

It's just cosmetics ... but if it sucks, i can fix it.

there u can set the Threshold for GPU load ... it decides when it shold switch from low-freq to high freq ...

and from high to low ...

u can adjust it from 0 - 256 .. ..

0 = 0%

256 = 100%

Default is this ....

static u32 boost_upthreshold	= 230; /* 90% */
static u32 boost_downthreshold	= 51; /* 20% */

already adjusted by me. - But u can try different Values .. to see what will happen of course :)

If users of ws2401-kernel are too much, then maybe i can do something to workaround this issue without to loose in smoothness compared to the default kernel, with the side effect that it'll drain a bit more battery :)
