I am not sure what is happening now with ART. Used 2016/03/15 rom build... Above i told to ace2nutzer that art works and optimized all my 130 apps, then in second reboot it optimized 60 apps (gapps as he said) third time rebooted phone and i had no optimizations. Now i just went in developers settings and i see that it got reverted back in dalvik... I tried to change to art again, phone rebooted normally as it is in dalvik, and i am having same issue now as i had with gcc 4.8 build, art does not work anymore, maybe i should try reinstall rom?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dr360r:
If ART is unsupported on KK, there's a reason.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] dimon130:
You can tell when will Deodex? I was removed from the system / app 36 programs and insert to the other, and they are without .odeks files. I do not want to have errors.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
Well, i dont take it too seariously if art will not work properly on our devices, since i dont really see a difference, just noticed that battery lasts longer on dalvik, but just a little bit. No difference in performance from my side.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] gepel:
[MENTION=5840412]ace2nutzer[/MENTION] do we know anything more about the soft vsync for ws2401 lcd ?It will be implement on kernel or in new rom ? I can't wait for it because right now the only issue that i have is the lag in 2d scroll ..
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] 1nc0rr3ct:
I agree. I didn't care about this until I downloaded Machine Knight. I can handle the lag but.... Kinda ruins the fun.

EDIT: With the zRam you taught me, I think I feel the difference. There's no more mini hangs in SimCity and Dungeon Quest.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] shaqman89:
Be patient guys :)

Afaik, we still haven't had a fully optimized CM11 yet. It has been way better since previous builds, I agree, but there are still room to improve (hopefully by much).

Anyway, I believe that will also be on top of the priority list as soon as ROM optimization is done.

---------- Post added at 06:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:57 AM ----------

Also confirmed that it doesn’t happen to me. Also same test build.

What I did notice was my battery drop (not battery drain) is kinda strange. It could suddenly drop by 20% or so in a minute. But overall usage, it still lasts for a day at least.

I guess its just my old battery though.

Yes, I could confirm this one too. When it works, it does works for one or two reboots before (seeming) to revert back to dalvik.

This happened for me for build 03/15 and later.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
@up

right :)

u're using an buggy build .... actually only 13/03 is properly compiled Build ... u can delete the other build .. all broken :)

btw: 13/03 is not "test build" it's completely stable, and fully working. :)

It only doesn't have hard optimization ... (actually working on it ;) )

When i'm done with optimizations :)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] darktrixx:
using 03/13 build. great and stable rom. thanks [MENTION=5840412]ace2nutzer[/MENTION] for this awesome rom. now i love my phone again :) thanks also for other members for guiding others including me a right way flashing this rom. thanks thanks and thanks :) looking forward for future optimization and final build. :)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dr360r:
On 160316 ROM Bluetooth is crashing. As soon as you turn it up, Bluetooth Share and the relative process crash. CPUZ OK, Maps OK, camera doesn't crash when switching from video to photo.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
I was about to start download ROM but it seems you tested it already :D
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
Just stay on 13/03 for now until an fully optimized build is also fully working...

The 16/03 has all binary code optimizations .... but looks like some optimizations is breaking some things ...

Also some Audio is broken too... I'll fix ;)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dr360r:
[MENTION=5840412]ace2nutzer[/MENTION] I'm curious about the fact that compiling the ROM with GCC 4.8 and above funks some apps up (such as Google Maps with GCC 4.9). Why would that happen?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
@up

i've no clue ... according to the defaults of CM11 sources... it should be compiled with GCC4.7 :)

Looks like Android building is very sensitive ... because i can build the kernel always with the latest GCC Version without having problems at all .... (actually it's 5.3 :) )

Using GCC4.8 or newer on KitKat will break: Camera, ART and maybe some more things ..

Also there is even no need to use an Patch for fixing Google play Services FC issue and deep sleep issue ...

Using proper GCC Version seems to make some wonders xD
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dr360r:
Does the same apply with Java?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
Nope, it suggests to use outdated Oracle Java 1.6 ... (no updates anymore)

but it's running fine with OpenJDK 1.7 with latest security patches ... (still supported) :)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] DevisG79:
All went well with repartitioning with ADB (Thank God and you). But I have 2,3 GB internal and you have 3,05GB!? Doesn´t matter, I think 2,3 GB is enough.

Where can I inform me over the repart.zip? Does it have better peformance?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
its a zip to repart your device I believe
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] darktrixx:
is this normal? phone idle but huge battery drop?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
battery usage apps list? SoT?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] darktrixx:
i disable already the play services wakeup and auto start in privacy
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
During battery drain on deep sleep the phone was online with 3g ?

If yes, this is normal .... Take a look on your signal quality ;)

Also i can suggest to keep everything @ "allowed" for google play + Google play services.

To disallow things, was only needed some months ago as workaround... Now it's not needed anymore. Likely u'll facing more problems if u disallow on new rom...
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] darktrixx:
it was in airplane mode during deep sleep sir. it can see that i dont have signal during deep sleep. i screen off my phone at 100% with airplane mode, then when i open it drops lot of battery, and also if i allow google play services, no more deep sleep sir. 100% wakelock. maybe i need to reflash?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
Again, don't disallow services. Let the phone work properly .. If it doesn't go to deep sleep, there is a reason for this.

After an fresh intallation the phone is busy with checking things like installed version of google play + services.. After some time with enabled wifi it can update everything, then it'll go to sleep even with "allowed".

So don't force things what the phone doesn't like to have. If the battery draining is even on offline + deep sleep, then u'll need probably to replace the battery (no matter how old it is)

Btw are u using 13/03 with latest a2n kernel ?

I'm using this Combo and there is no problems at all... Only uploading video to instagram doesn't work. :)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] 1nc0rr3ct:
I think the reason the battery drains too fast is because of the mobile connection even though it is on airplane mode. I don't know how to explain but I think its almost the same as leaving your wifi on even if there is no routers around and the phone tries to find one causing more battery consumption.

I hope I am right.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
Wrong :)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
1st step to save battery is using greenify, it force closes all apps when you don't use them. So no apps will wake up device. There might be some apps draining battery.

2nd as ace2nutzer said probably your battery is RIP. Even though you can try to flash different ROM and check battery life, so If it will be the same then it is really a battery problem.

>still using my ace 2 with stock battery, never changed since I bought it (new). I get 3 hours of SoT in normal use.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Tree4ever:
[MENTION=5840412]ace2nutzer[/MENTION]:

Just now I changed from 11/03 to 13/03 and check a little bit(last kernel+NT).Independently from this,how do you think about noop-scheduler?Could you add it again because it is the most economical?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
Hmm this is not really much .. i'm getting here approx 6 hours SOT with over 3 years old battery !

Measured on browsing with stock browser + only wifi on ... nothing else ... also brightness only on 2nd step ;)

And with stock Frequencies ... no greenify .... nothing .... and this with approx 120 - 130 Apps (incl. system apps) :highfive:

i've removed Noop Scheduler because it was unstable :)

Use Powersave profile, if not enough, got to Settings and reduce CPU freq from 600 @ 400Mhz ;)

(for some apps it's still quite fast ;) )

PS: More Powersaving + Performance is coming ;)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
even in power save mode phone runs so damn smooth and fast... I have it always at power save mode and I didn't feel yet that I need more power. Though bro 6 hours of SoT .... wut. But still, 3 hours of SoT for me is very very good. Using 130 apps too, including greenify, WiFi is enabled most of the times. Might be that my gsm signal is poor so yeah
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] danitrex:
GPS don't work for me... Everything else works, but i can't detect any satélite... Any tips?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
Check your GPS Antenna .. it's an known issue for the Ace2 .....
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] 1nc0rr3ct:
Tested it last night, leaving my wifi on in the settings and turning off my router. Didn't make any difference if you ask me lol

Oh well lol. I haven't experienced it so I don't know anything about it unless I do a study.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Culateralligator:
Swipe keyboard isn't working here with 2016/03/13.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] darktrixx:
can i see your current bat stats and SOT? lol :)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
of course it'll drain more battery if wifi is on, without having connection .. it'll scan every 150 seconds for an router...

But i meant "wrong" that it can't drain battery if it's in offline mode :)

On offline mode the modem is completely powered off (no scans) :)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] TheWorczan:
Hello can anyone give me link for this rom because i cant download from xda thanks
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
why, go in first post of this thread, find "LATEST BUILDS" in blue color, click on this, click cm11 -> codina -> cm11 16/03/13 since it is currently the most stable ROM from ace2nutzer.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] danitrex:
Problem fixed... GPS is working now. Thanks. Great ROM.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dr360r:
How did you fix it?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] danitrex:
With a litle search in the forum , i found this :http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2201668

It was the screws... And it worked. Now its like new.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dr360r:
If you feel like doing it, try to add the two lines ro.ril.def.agps.mode=1 and ro.ril.def.agps.feature=1 to build.prop. They let your phone download and use data about where the satellites are for a duration according to the xtra file specified in the gps.conf (i modified it so that it uses a local Italian NTP server and it downloads the 7 day xtra file instead of the 4 day one), making locks much faster. Don't believe me? Try looking in /root/data/gps. It's empty. Once you add the lines, reboot and connect to Internet, two files appear there.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] danitrex:
Also did that.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dr360r:
Good. Works better than without, right?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] danitrex:
It fix faster and with more satelites.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dr360r:
Thanks for testing.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Derpinton:
Help with installation

I'm on Android 4.1.2 GT-I1860, installed cm-11-20160320-UNOFFICIAL-codina, rebooted and check version, was 4.4.4. I installed ace2nutzer.kernel.4.4.x_20160307_codina.p.l afterwards and the device failed to boot. Currently reflashing to stock 4.1.2 then trying again later but could someone guide me through the installation procedure?

Well I failed to realize that I wasn't on CM, so yeah, but still can't get CM to install even with temporary CWM.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
Wrong. Flash only 2016/03/13 version because it is the best build so far from ace2nutzer, ATM everything above is for testing, not for daily use. Also this is how to flash, but only if you are on kitkat already, if you are flashing from any other ROM, then you will have to do factory reset, wipe cache, dalvik cache and read these instructions:
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Derpinton:
Much appreciated, thanks and will update later with results. :D
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dr360r:
By the way latest 160320 build looks perfect. No longer crashing Bluetooth. No crash whatsoever.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Derpinton:
Everything is currently working except for the fact that I cannot mount the SDcard from Settings>Storage. Pressing "Mount SD card" does nothing and when removed and replaced, card is not detected. Help?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Culateralligator:
Have you tried swipe keyboard?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
tested latest build, it's still broken .. some audio codecs are broken .. and swipe doesn't work.

Still suggest to stay on 13/03 .. is less buggy :)

I'll build later with default Java .. maybe will fix swipe .. never tested this before .. damn it.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dr360r:
[MENTION=6542205]Culateralligator[/MENTION] No, i'm sorry. But i'll try for you ASAP

EDIT: ace2nutzer has already done it for you.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
why would you need to mount sd card? you dont need to move out and reinsert sd card. Just remove sd card and insert it again and it should work.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dr360r:
Perhaps the sd card or the card reader slot is defective...
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dr360r:
Has anyone tested the newly uploaded build (it's been removed). I've bought some tickets through an app and i don't want to risk losing them. Is swipe working yet?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
it wasn't working .. but maybe on next build .... because it's compiled with default java :)

previously build was still compiled with openjdk 1.7 ... I'm still testing binary code optimizations ... and so trying to find out what is the cause of breaking Bluetooth + some audio codecs :)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Derpinton:
Yeah I'm guessing that my card reader slot if defective :(. Thanks for help anyway. Great build
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dr360r:
How is it going with 160321?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
still swipe crashing ... i think it's CM sources bug.

So we've to wait until CM Team will fix it :)

Now again reverted to openjdk 1.7.

Bluetooth is fixed now, now i'm fixing broken audio codec.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dr360r:
What does broken audio codec imply? Can't play music? Mute streaming videos?

By the way tomorrow i'll resume testing ROMs.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
Audio is then not completely broken .. i think only some codecs .. for example i've here the APP: NES Emulator .. and when trying to play Super Mario Bros II .. then the Sound is very bad and corrupted .... This is caused by custom (no-standard) binary code optimizations :)

Actually compiling without such code optimizations ;)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] heldix:
I would be so happy if u find a way fo fix the chromecast cyanogenmod issue. I love my ACE2 which i got from the first days but this issue is driving me crazy...

http://www.androidpolice.com/2016/0...oke-chromecast-video-streaming-finally-fixed/

According to this link its just 1 line of code which is faulty.

Greetings,

heldiX
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
it's from CM-13.0 .. CM Team actually didn't merge it on cm-11.0 branch ... but i can try to fix it on cm-11.0 on next build. (not on test-builds) next release is on next days with cm sources update.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] danitrex:
I think i found a bug... I set the CPU frequency to 1000Mhz and it worked fine, untill i did a reboot, then the max frequency returns to 800Mhz again...
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
did you tick 'set on boot' ?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] danitrex:
No, do i have to do that?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
if u want to have 1000Mhz even after an reboot, then yes :)

800Mhz is the Stock Freq.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] danitrex:
OK. After all the bug was me... I alredy tested and it woeks fine...
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] hypervenom27:
Just asking if u will add otg support in future release ?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] shaqman89:
I remember that this is not possible for our devices, without some hardware hacks.

In other words, it's our phones hardware that is preventing us from using it, not software.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
Haha, weird 24 hours of silence.. I must comment.

So [MENTION=5840412]ace2nutzer[/MENTION] 2016/03/13 version is stable right? i have been using your fixed xposed app_process rom version 2016/03/14 but it went to be very unstable, xda app was freezing and force closing for few secs using and random fcs so yeah, i went back to stable version, so maybe you could release a new stable version which would fix app_process? because in this build xposed framework cant be installed. Or you can make flashable zip to fix app_process, but i think releasing new stable version with this app process fix would be better.

Thansk.

P.S. Can anyone test latest youtube apk from google play? For me, max resolution is now even 240p... What is going on? do google really want to get rid of old smartphones? Also can someone tell me, at which resolution videos are going in browser? i cant check it, but definetely 360p atleast. Youtube app makes very pixelated videos, while old school youtube doesnt as well as browsers, they blurs instead of showing pixels.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Sylvinette:
@up

Yeah it's more smooth to watch on Browser than YouTube app in Landscape mode. I got 360p on YouTube app.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
long time wasnt going in browser, in mobile view of youtube, and yestarday i went there, and damn, there is no need for youtube app anymore since browser has everything the same. But still... Downloaded from google play and max res 240p. OGYouTube v1.2 gives only 360p and old school youtube modded gives 720p but skips 480p res.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] 1nc0rr3ct:
I use YouTube App most of the time and its working absolutely fine. I got nothing else to say.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
all resolutions on kitkat???
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] shaqman89:
Nope. It's only 360 max.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
why u guys don't use old OGYT APP ? IMHO it has best image quality and also it has best battery lifetime .. with the latest YT APP, the quality is bad, and also really huge battery draining.

Also i think it's cool to download the audio as mp3 with just one tap ;)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
[MENTION=5840412]ace2nutzer[/MENTION] because i like how new youtube app sorts videos, also its nice that it minimizes videos, when you are browsing new videos, thata why, but atm i can live with browser version of app :D.

Also what about my questions about stable rom? few comments above ;)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] greeceeeee:
I use ogyoutube 4.4.11 the best app with 720p resolution!
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Culateralligator:
Anything to consider before doing this? Formats, wipes, mount... etc.

Or just flash and after that, formats, wipes and restore backup.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
only that.

Yeah, u're right .... just old version .. but still good... at least still far better as latest official YT App.

Unfortunately this great app, is no more developed by the Author. Also there are some newer versions of the working OG YT App... but even those newer versions are not working properly on our Phone.

lol, what should i say ? I've read your comment/request, of course i'm working on it to make fully working CM11.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Culateralligator:
I have Vanir+ChronoKernel with F2FS.

Is last Ace2Nutzer's kernel compatible with this format? Can I flash it?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
nope, u've to make cwm backup .. then format FIRST everything as ext4 (except of sdcards and modemfs lol) ... then flash ace2nutzer kernel .. then u can restore the cwm backup.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Culateralligator:
Why not modemfs?

I've read many people having fun with it. :D
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
yeah... maybe they thing they can make calls for free ;)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
so it actually doesnt give free calls? O.o
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] [-GuTi-]:
lol, it's a joke :D
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] shaqman89:
Damn, I almost tried it to get free calls :D
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] pablo.see:
Is it possible to install TWRP 3.0.0.0 with your kernel ace2nutzer or only ith ChronoMonochrome kernel?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] shaqman89:
Unfortunately this is not possible with ace2nutzer's kernel, since in our device kernel+recovery occupies the same partition.

It is possible to change recovery with ChronoMonochrome's kernel since he used a method to differentiate those two.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dr360r:
If you want a phone that can't phone, send messages or connect to the Internet (except with WiFi), go and format /modemfs :silly:

Just kidding :laugh: Don't do it ;)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
Yes ! Have u still Warranty ?? If yes, u can reset the Counter via ADB.. very simple .... (both, Custom--> official and counter)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
ART Is ROM related and it works on my ltest Build.. ckeck my dev-host-- (here 1. post --> Download)

U can read the Changelogs of both kernels.. then u know that.. Good Idea ? ;)

May Be.. if this have no Hotplug... because Hotplug Gov. sucks! ;)

I'm sorry if u've problems.. but what can i do ?! But u can read here in Forum.. then u know.. it is not really needed to flash Stock ROM.. if something goes wrong with kernel.. u can easy flash a kernel - odin Version.. with odin.. that's it !

For all that check always in my dev-host... u will find something usefull....

I think it's a problem with s6d Driver too.. but i can't develop a Driver for a Device what i don't have.

If u can tell me wich Build from Rox.. Recovery works... then i can make sometimes updates with this Recovery Version...

Actually the Recovery is from Build: 20140706[/B from Rox... if u or other found a working Version.. just unpack the Build.. and send me only the boot.img.. that's enough !!!

EDIT: What is failed ?! Can i see an screenshot ?? How i can help.. please collaborate.. if u want to receive some helps :-p
