U've to use older ROM (20161122) as mentioned before.

Nope, there is no need for special support on ROM-side for xposed .. it's just a lack of outdated xposed version that can't handle latest ROM Security patches.

So if the Developer of Xposed will ever release an new Version of Xposed, then it would work with latest Build here :)

In the past, we always reverted a few Security Patches in order to have old Xposed Version working with latest ROM.

But IMHO this is not the right way ... i don't want to decrease the Security of the whole ROM for just having one App working ! :)

See also: http://xdaforums.com/xposed/v87-patch-reach-xposed-android-4-x-t3509584

lol :D Why CM12 ? - Honestly if i would start new project, then i would choose the latest stable Android Version ;)

btw: if u Guys really can't live without Xposed*, so there is little trick how to make that 22/11 Build as good as latest ROM ... at the end it's almost fast and stable like the latest Build, but with working XPosed !

(but with the same Level of Security like the 22/11 ROM !)

So what u Guys need to do is very simple:

Just use Build.prop from latest ROM and edit all flags that have something to do with the date and change it by hand to the date of 22/11 or use simple those flags with the date from 22/1 ROM .. and do copy and paste... also don't forget to edit flag ro.build.version.security_patch ..

u even can use latest build.prop 1:1 .. but then it's a bit not very convenient to have wrong date for security patch level ... for other reasons .... but it works as well !

then override it with your old build.prop and make sure permission is root:root 644.

Now wipe Apps Cache in Settings ---> Storage ---> Cache and confirm delete all apps cached data,

then finally reboot to recovery, wipe dalvik cache and you're done ...

enjoy faster and more stable ROM !

*= is it like ace2nutzer kernel ? - I wonder if an phone (or an user(!)) become addicted to an (ace2nutzer) kernel :D
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Culateralligator:
Thanks. I'll try it when I have time...

About Xposed addiction... Yes, it's very addictive! Ha ha...

I use amplify and Greenify... But not for battery drain (though I get 1 extra hour of SOT using then, I could use other apps with no Xposed need), mainly for smoothness (amplify) and to void zRam usage.

The phone runs more smooth without zRam... but it isn't funny running out of memory... So every time I'm gonna use a heavy app (FB and so), I just pick on widget "hibernate now" and the app works perfectly... fluid, smooth, I can watch videos with no interruptions...

I very rarely have app's FC due to lack of RAM.

I have set up Greenify (with Amplify) to close chosen apps just every 3600", so battery drain is not compromised for senseless closing and opening apps all the time.

Anyway, without this amazingly optimized ROM I wouldn't quit zRam, because it would be really painful using the phone.

Every 4-6 months I start thinking this phone is living its last weeks... But then you release a new update that make it faster than ever... and I stop looking for new phones... :D

Your cm11 don't support Selinux Mode?

I just ask. Because this is needed to bypass safety net security.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Krzychu95:
I've discovered what was causing poor battery life on my phone. It was 3G, I was commuting by a bus (mixed bad and good signal) for 40 minutes with 3G on and it consumed 50% of battery in deep sleep witout any OC. I will add that while having wifi on and playing some games and having OC, battery is solid.

Anyone getting similar results or it's just my phone/carrier?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
@up

just use that was is giving better signal.

Poor Signal always drains much battery ... so keep an eye on it.

It's disabled in kernel and rom. For what do u need it ? (which app or so)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Kurajmo:
I needed this for iSU app.

Root disable and change Selinux Mode.

Then i can run Pokemon GO on Ace 2.

But Selinux Mode is needed.

Developer from iSU tell me this
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
OK, next build will have SELinux.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Kurajmo:
Nah. It's not needed for me anymore.

Today i found a Man.

Who change with me for my Ace 2 with CM13.

He give me Tablet Medion Lifetab e10312

Now i just sell this 1gb crap (because I don't need tablet anymore).

And buy someting like LG F60/F70

And play Pokémon go normally.

Finally i dont have Ace 2 anymore.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Andrex_2015:
hello guys, a silly and easy question, I put the ace2nutzer.kernel.4.4.X.codina.p.l kernel convinced of being explores resources on my external sd with data. But in reality the (sdcard1) voice sd card does not make me access, and the folders and file data sim find them on the internal memory ...

What did I do wrong? I put specially the standard version (and not nosdcard) in order to use the sd card as always ....

Will you help me?

thank you

Andrea
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
U did nothing wrong !

The sdcard1 data is now on sdcard0.

The system uses only micro-sd as sdcard0.

Therefore, no micro-sd = no sdcard at all .... that's why then there is nosdcard version for this case that uses only the internal sdcard.... otherwise the System can't work properly.

I need help ASAP...

i flashed repartion then my phone froze and it didnt go to recovery ... even i power up again and again ... what should i do ??
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
On which ROM and kernel ?

Flash ODIN Kernel, then repeat the repartition again, following how it should be done in Post #3.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Farzin 073:
Well . I flashed odin kernel but it doesnt go to recovery it just show a black screen ...

Just wondering... Would be possible a CWM Reparted zip just to add 1,1 GB (media SD card) to 1,2 GB data partition?

I mean, just to get 2,3 GB for apps.

Amazing job. :good:
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Krzychu95:
You have now 3GB for apps, why would you want 2.3?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Culateralligator:
For stock Jelly Bean.

I was taking about last ace2nutzer kernel for 4.1.2.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
Thank u very much ! :good:

Yes of course ! Theoretically is even possible to have around 3GB on /data .. it just requires an clean up of almost many useless pre-installed apps like Yahoo + Samsung apps ... and then u see how much space the system really needs ... then u can resize the partitions ...

In all cases, after the repartition, formatting is needed, so then all user apps + settings are lost..

So u've already installed?? - And works good ? :)

Check also how the Stock Browser works ... check live-stream video .... :)

In my case, it works far way better than on CM11 here ...

The reason for this is simply because on stock ROM there is the proper use of Hardware Codecs ... while here on CM11 some of the Codecs are using Software Codecs ... and this simply decreases Performance and Increases Power Consumption due of too high CPU Usage ! (due of the lack of proper patches ... )
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Culateralligator:
OK. Good news what you say.

No, I'm afraid right now i don't have the time to do all these things, but I wanna try ASAP.

I was just wondering if you are planning some more development for Jelly Bean or just kernel (which Is a great achievement).

So Stock JB with your kernel would be better (in performance) than CM11?

Last week I just upgraded my second ACE2 from GB co CM11 and I'm not sure now if it does worth to go back to JB... specially afer repartition (do not even know the best procedure) . Also JB needs a lot of work to remove unuseful Samsung apps...
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] corax2.05:
Hi,

It seems the NovaThor link on post one is down.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Culateralligator:
The main problem is Samsung customisation, which is crap.

This is extremely painful, even with ace2nutzer tweaks, most probably is this cm11 works way better than stock jelly Bean.

But, anyway, if you don't want installing custom ROMs, this is the best choice. I think lot of people will be happy to finally have a really good kernel specifically for Jelly Bean.

Of course, you'll need deleting also Samsung apps and all useful and annoying ones.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
I'm working actually overall lol :D

Actually i'm interested on following ROM's:

Stock GB

Stock JB

CM11

CM14.1

So from oldest to the latest .... Honestly i'm still not satisfied with this CM11, even if it seems to work very fast ... but here are still a few bugs that are hard to fix.

I'll try soon to build CM14.1 just to see if some things works better.. and if not, we'll end up with stock JB or even GB ... The Stock ROM's are quite old and doesn't look that pretty nice like latest ROM's ... but at least they are bugfree... Especially Stock GB.

Starting with Stock JB ... and there started the LCD issues ... if u Guys are following this Thread ... then u already know, that a few Users faced for the first time LCD Issue since they upgraded from Stock GB to Stock JB.

Really don't know what's exactly wrong ... but i'll soon install Stock GB and check how the LCD Driver works there ...

The fact is, i've already checked the Sources .. and it's completely different.

That's it! - On Stock GB both LCD Models works perfectly without lags .. and also without to change LCD Freq.

The Best Solution for fast and bugfree Phone, would be Stock JB but with LCD Driver from Stock GB ... ace2nutzer kernel, repartition and removing useless Apps.

It's not a lot of work ... u only need to delete Apps that seems useless from /system/app and /preload

after that, reboot phone and u're done. U maybe also want to install NovaLuncher if u don't like Samsung Touchwiz ..

Then it's like AOSP ;)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Farzin 073:
Would u plz check your pv ??
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Culateralligator:
:good:

Haha... You know even with Nova launcher it has nothing to do with AOSP, but I understand what you mean. :good:

I'm trying kernel+app and it has good performance compared with stock ROM/kernel, I must say.

First of all, I have to say app didn't work with prerooted kernel until I've flashed Chainfire zip (v2.65). Phone was stuck when booting all the times, even updating binaries through SuperSU app.

Second, it would be nice to have a proper reparted zip. I don't know what are the differences between CM11 one and stock jelly Bean's.

And third, if would be nice using this ROM with some more optimizations. I don't know if you are planning (in addition to drivers) any other improvements... All of them will be welcome.:good:
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
:laugh: OK ;)

Yeah, that's great to read it.

Thanks for this Report ! I thought i've fixed that issue .. but it seems that it still can happen ... !

It's probably an issue with SuperSU App installation. I'll try if it's better to install as user app ... if not, i'll remove SuperSU completely, and the user can install it over play Store. Maybe better.

OK, i can provide such repart.zip soon, actually without to change something, i can move 300MB from cache to /data. Or can also move 1,1GB from sd0 to /data ... and then forcing the system to use only real sdcard as sd0 like on latest kernel here.

Don't know what is actually best. We'll see.

Because we need to check how it goes when moving apps to sdcard ... (in a case /data is full)

Well, i don't know what u're meaning with "some more optimizations" .. so far it's fully optimized ... it has the same optimizations like kernel for CM11 ... and also same build.prop tweaks. The only difference is that the ROM Binaries and libs are not compiled by me ... they are compiled by samsung. - Of course it would run even faster if i would rebuild the ROM with latest binary code optimizations from me, but for this i'll need to check if it's that simple to do so.

btw: u're the first official user that purchased ace2nutzer kernel control app !

Many Thanks ! :good:

btw2: i'm adding initial support for Performance Profiles ... but it's actually not working for Stock JB ..

While for CM11 it should work ...

Once u set an Profile, it'll survive even after an reboot.

Also good to know: All users that purchased the App for testing Stock JB with my kernel, and later maybe u decide to go back to CM11, u'll be able to use my App. - So no need to Buy it one more time.

Of course it requires that u use the same Google Play Account ... so that the App can check the License.

there is no need to send a PM.

Don't know what u're doing, nobody has this issue. Anyway, if u can see sdcard0 as 1MB on the system .. then u're using 100% the wrong kernel !

The correct kernel, if u want to use real sdcard is ace2nutzer.kernel.4.4.x_20161209_codina.p.l.zip

U've to flash this at the end. then it'll use real sdcard.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Culateralligator:
@up Well, I don't know if I'll still use stock jelly bean, but I thought you deserved a "donation" for your whole job. :good:

Camera works better with stock firmware, so it would be nice to have a jelly bean working as well as CM11 in performance.

I have deleted useless apps, and now on Terminal I have 180 MB on Preload partition and 526 MB on system.

I always can modify the zip (if you make one) to decrease the sizes... The problem cm11's zips erase Preload partition and I don't really know how it works, so I'm not touching anything cause it'll be a mess.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
;)

Yeah, Camera is bugfree, Stock Browser also, and Live-Stream on Stock Browser simply faster.

Ok i'll do one soon :)

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Yønn:
Thanks a lot and Merry Christmas to everyone!

After a few weeks using latest ROM & Kernel, I feel like I will wait another year before buying a new phone! :):good:

BTW, it seems that something went wrong when editing Post #2' isn't it?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] gepel:
After update i got a message for non valid android license !!???;!! Now on every reboot I got this one, ace2.apk has stopped!!
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
No there is nothing wrong with post #2.

But there is something wrong with the App when using kitkat ... i'll fix it ASAP.

Also something went wrong with publishing the App, so actually it's better to not install latest kernel.

For the case u installed it, and NT-APP is missing now, just flash latest NT APP u've, in recovery, till i'll fix it.

Sorry for inconvenience Guys !

Forgot to mention:

Next Update will remove NT-APP (obsolete) and it'll install a new Kernel Control APP: Ace2nutzer kernel control.

It's more or less similar like the NT.APP .. but with the difference NT-APP will not receive updated anymore.

So any new updates like bugfixes, and new features will only be on new ace2nutzer kernel control app.

And for the last point: it's not freeware anymore . .. its price is 4,99€ and it's NOT only for the APP itself .. but it's also for the kernel !

Anyway, i'm not forcing u Guys to buy that app, if u don't want to support kernel + app development or u're very low on money (like me :D) then just use kernel without that app.

I hope u Guys respect this Decision and aren't Mad to me :)

On the other hand, paying 5€ is still better than buying an new Phone.

btw: once u purchased that app, it'll work for both Stock JB and kitkat. ..and maybe also for the future Versions from me ... maybe CM14.1 .. should work as well ... so it shouldn't hurt much :)

I'll inform u when i've solved all issues.

Many thanks ! i wish u all Merry Christmas !

I REALLY need help :(

Hello guys, I just bricked an Ace II (it isn't even mine :( ) and can't unbrick it and really hope someone is willing to help.

Here is what I did:

Well, to get from stock rom to a custom rom, I always used the way of using the default recovery to install a new CWM Recovery (version 6.0.2.8) and then install the chrono kernel r2.24.5 to get a newer CWM to install a new firmware. This always worked (I've tried some custom roms, including CM13 and CM14.1 by SergeyL and this very ROM.) Because this rom (CM11) was the fastest, I wanted to reinstall that. Going from stock rom, I installed the new CWM and then the kernel. Well, it didn't work with the new kernel, I couldn't even enter the recovery. I have tried many times wiping everything, reinstalling stock firmware with Odin and then installing kernel, but the samwe problem keeps occuring.

I thought that maybe repartitioning would help because it cleans everything. It went well and I carefully followed the instructions. after rebooting, I was greeted with multiple red lines stating /system couldn't be opened. I formatted it again and the problem disappeared. Then I wanted to install another kernel, but then a shocking thing happened: an error showed up, saying it can only be installed on the Ace 2 and the likes, but I have a "" - my device apparently had no name. I tried reinstalling with Odin, that worked but the ROM didn't boot, I was again greeted with red error messages about multiple partitions not being able to be mounted. then, I installed the stock repartition file, hoping it would fix my issue, but nothing changed. At the moment I can't do anything and I'm really depressed because this isn't even my device and I messed it up, and I don't know how to fix.

Please help me, I tried everything that came to my mind in the last 5 hours, but nothing helped :(
