Few news and updates

The next build of sVanilla will be v1.1, sVanilla 2.0 is however in the works. sVanilla 2.0 will be re-built from stock :). So all the existing bugs should be fixed and language problem may also be fixed.

Well for sVanilla 1.1, here are the things that will be included (confirmed)-

1. Email app from Android 5.0

2. PurePerformance Mod

However, this features are experimental and are being tried out, so I can't give a word whether or not I will include it in 1.1

1. AOSP Lockscreen - For once I had successfully replaced the stock lockscreen with holo locker (so the one you get in the lockscreen does not have graphical glitch). It was few hours ago I successfully embedded it, and then went off to sleep, after waking up, I found my phone in bootloop :confused:. I will try to find why and how. I guess it would be a really nice addition and the ROM would just be more custom :D. SS in attachment.

2. I will replace existing framework with stock. Let me know if it would be deprecated or not.
[Samsung Galaxy Star] rrr1077:
really , it's anice start with stock ROM , keep it up

i'd like to make Holo launcher old version to take lil from RAM and work faster and fine

and keep Google cam , calender >> it's really awesome

keep it up :)
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
I think bundling lockscreen would be difficult, if I do so, the ROM on its first run would run flawlessly, but if you reboot, result will be bootloop.

GCam and Calendar won't be changed
[Samsung Galaxy Star] rrr1077:
that OK , I'm sure u will solve this problem as soon as possible

so , r u try other launcher ? , or this case belong to all :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
No I dont have any plans to change the launcher, the launcher is extracted from a lollipop ROM, so no plans in changing it
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
Bugs fixed

Managed to fix these bugs-

1. Apps default selection bug (apps can now be selected as defaults)

2. Plat logo retained

3. Language bug fixed.

4. ROM will come with its own stock kernel, so no need of flashing separate kernel.

Apart from these-

1. ROM built from stock.

2. Switched to stock framework, xTheme is now manadatory for use as I dont get enough time to theme framework.

Check screenshots in attachments

A kernel was included to take care of this, are you sure followed the steps correctly?
[Samsung Galaxy Star] nikobellic121:

[Samsung Galaxy Star] HJain13:
[MENTION=5822936]AvinabaDalal[/MENTION] can you please compress the rom and fix using KGB archiver (it gives very good compression, almost 90% ) and if output file is small then upload it?
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
Well, the next update will be a bit smaller (about 320MB). I will see to it if I can :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Star] rrr1077:

[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
The newest update with those language bug fixes is already rolling. You might want to check that if you haven't already.

[Samsung Galaxy Star] PseudoDev:
Link?

Where's the download link??
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
check OP, there is a large download button. It will redirect you GDrive which will show the contents of zip, you will find a dwonload button there (highly recommended to use PC).

1. Yeah, its a bug. Will see how it can be fixed (its Panorama mode btw).

2. You can access SD Card from bookmarks. Tap the 2nd Icon among the 3 icons in bottom right. If you enable root user mode, you will be able see 3 more directories.
[Samsung Galaxy Star] rrr1077:
ye i c SD CARD now , thank u ,, about panorama mode i hop to fix it soon , if u can

some thing else :confused: , when i try to Add ringtone from basic way [ setting , Sound , ringtone ] , it's also give me error , i c another way for that, when i play sound by Apollo i can make it from there , but if u can fix it it will be better

good work keep it up :)
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
That Camera and the above mentioned bugs has been debugged-

It is basically due to absence of stock apps (Samsung Camera and probably My Files), because panorama mode did work with Samsung Camera present.

I don't use audio much on my phones (as it always remains in silent mode), so I am not 100% sure, but I think My Files is causing the problem.

Update

I will try and roll out the next update as soon as possible which will have minor changes-

1. build.prop tweaks

2. modified wallpaper chooser

3. Changed Launcher Icons

4. Minor fixes

Development will be paused for quite a while after that (it has almost stopped now tbh).

I don't get much time for dev, so I try to include max possible features rather than experimenting.

About MyROM

Its been a tough journey with it. Though 50% is complete, I get error in that 'Google Apps' and 'Popular User Apps'. Will try to get away with it as soon as possible and release it.
[Samsung Galaxy Star] rrr1077:
o0 i c , good luck 4 next version ,

DSP

DSP manager doesnt seem to work
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
Yeah, will update libraries in next build.
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
sVanilla 1.2 Coming Soon

sVanilla 1.2 coming shortly

Confirmed Changes

-Updated DSP Manager Libraries

-Some themed icons of system apps

-Modified SecWallpapers.apk

Planned additions

-4way Reboot Mod

About lockscreen, I tried modding android.policy.jar, but alas, then I tried to make it work properly by modding SecSettings.apk, but SecSettings won't get decompiled by apktool properly, apk-multitool did decompile it, but just could not recompile it back.

Also, new framework may be included.

Let me know if there is performance bottlenecks.
[Samsung Galaxy Star] rag555:
I lik this rom but I can't play gtasa/vice city it hangs unplayable (lik slow motion, late touch response)(nly this two games) all other games works nice plz giv me a solution for this I lik this rom bcause it has swap support

[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
Really? Well I am surprised to know that GTA VC does run on SGS.

Anyways, although I am not sure what this problem might be, still I will see to it, if I have time.
[Samsung Galaxy Star] rag555:
Thax 4 rply plz fix this when ull get time. ..

[Samsung Galaxy Star] Aakarsh99:
what are differences between single sim and dual sim variant?

If i helped you please press thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Star] PseudoDev:
Difference

Nothing Much....It just Changes the status bar in the UI so that you can switch between the two sims.... :):)

Pressing On the thanks Button Wont Hurt
[Samsung Galaxy Star] PseudoDev:
Here's what i think of the sVanilla 1.2.1 :

--Switched to CyanogenMod's Trebuchet launcher : Wise thing to do...this launcher from CM is extremely smooth and reliable....feels good too

--Enabled Lockscreen Rotation : Good thinking but not that helpful......you know....wont affect much...

--Enabled Power Toggle Widget [EXPERIMENTAL] : We can put 4-way reeboot instead of this....

--Enabled Accessibility-Turn of all sounds widget [EXPERIMENTAL] : This was a good feature introduced....

--Enabled Tethering and Portable Hotspot Icon in Launcher : This is a good feature too...(But i wonder why wold some on do tethering with this phone.... )

Haven't tested these one's....

--Enabled Smart Network [EXPERIMENTAL].

--Enabled Screen Candy [EXPERIMENTAL].

--Enabled Negative Colours [EXPERIMENTAL].

The UI is smooth.....but frequent crashes of the settings and clock make it impossible to enjoy the smoothness...

Also..i noticed (i dont know whether its for me or all) that xposed modules dont work properly....

But hey......good modding out there!!!!! :cowboy::cowboy::cowboy::cowboy:

If you found this review helpful......Press thanks...
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
Single Sim Variant means Single UI, Dual Sim variant means dual UI, dual sim won't work properly on Single UI, but both single and dual sim will work on dual UI :)

Settings and Clock will show FC message quite a few times just after boot, but it should gain stability later on. Should I make 'revert to sVanilla 1.2 update' ?
[Samsung Galaxy Star] PseudoDev:
You see... The idea was not bad but the features you added were...unmmm... Irrelevant.... The launcher idea was good... Let's try doing something that would actually make a difference??? Let's say... Modify the caller screen... Or the lock screen??? These minor changes have rally no impact. ..

Don't worry mate.... As far as I can see . ..in future this ROM night be the best ROM XDA has for galaxy star..

Next time make an update with a blast...[emoji3] [emoji3] [emoji3] [emoji3] [emoji3] [emoji3] [emoji3] [emoji3]
[Samsung Galaxy Star] yabhuva:
What's going on... To update or not ??? Bad or good ???
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
Yeah, I have unfinished business with the ROM. I plan to make a big update, with features like:

-Updated Firmware

-4 way mod reboot

-Quickpanel Settings, Superuser and DSP Manager will be merged in the Settings (as in CM).

-Will re-code Aroma from scratch and build more user-friendly installer.

-In Call UI can be modded, but is time taking.

-AOSP LockScreen addition has been a target from firs, but its quite tough to add, for my level.

And yes, the update will take time, so its not coming out soon.

If you want stable experience, stick to 1.2, or if you want some extra cool features, upgrade to 1.2.1 :)
[Samsung Galaxy Star] PseudoDev:
Yup... That's right... Plan it big.... I might be able to help you too... Inbox me you WhatsApp number and we can develop it together
[Samsung Galaxy Star] Aakarsh99:
Okay this is what i found out yesterday

I flashed both 1.1 and 1.2 .

1.1 had play store crashing and ramexpander also crashed .

The look and feel of 1.1 is very nice and cool.

1.2 did not have any bug but the dual sim ui almost killed me.

The colour of the notification panel is very bad and it is very laggy and does not work properly.

I havent tried the experimental new version but I would say that please change the lockscreen to kikat or lolipop lockscreens and try to make a kitkat/cm similar ui for dual sims.

If i helped you please press thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Star] sayakshinobu:
You did worked a lot lad but i would go with varunes.the features you added are frankly irrelevant in our device...although they are good in say a good tab..and realy bro you are amongst the few who keep updating their roms.keep up the good work and dream big
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
I don't use WhatsApp. And I will take my time in releasing next major update.

Btw I have fixed Settings FC and found a workaround for fixing Clock FC. Just disable Screen Candy, and say Goodbye to Clock FC messages.

About Screen Candy- It was an experimental feature introduced in JellyBean 4.1 and finally made available to mass in 4.2 by the name of 'DayDream'.

I have disabled certain features introduced in 1.2.1 which didn't work.

Also added adblock methods. Should I out it as minor update (also as a stable update)?

I am hardly a themer, I don't make UI's. All you can do is replace UI with your favourite one.

Yeah I disabled few of them.
[Samsung Galaxy Star] PseudoDev:
Found a bug....Market Helper doesn't work.....
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
Stable Update v1.2.2 rolling out

Stable Update with fixes and updates to that in v1.2.1 is now available for all.

Changelog with respect to v1.2.1 (If you were on v1.2.1 and installing this update, the changes you would see) :

-Some features that was not working (like 'Screen Candy', 'Power Widget' etc.) are removed.

-LockScreen does not rotate.

-Improved Settings Stability. You should not see any FC message.

-No Clock FC message.

-Added AdBlocker

-Updated Banner.

Changelog with respect to v1.2 (If you were on v1.2 and installing this update, the changes you would see) :

-Enabled all way rotation.

-Added some cool hidden features.

-Replaced previous launcher with CyanogenMod's Trebuchet launcher.

-Added Banner.

-Added Custom info.

-Added AdBlocker.

This update is for all, no experimental tags, however, I have kept AdBlocker as something to be tested. Enjoy :).
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
Video Review and Credits Section added

I found 2 videos made on this ROM, and with his permission, I have added the videos in OP.

Credits Section is added in post #3.

Feels really nice on seeing videos being made on my made. :o

Also I am working on enabling OTA Updates.

And I need someone who could design a logo for the ROM. I am no good at artwork. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
Enabled OTA Updates

The latest zip (v1.2.2.5) enables OTA Updates.

You will receive OTA updates automatically as soon as an update is rolled out.

Push notifications works best when Google Play Store and Gapps enabled. If no Gapps, make sure to manually check for updates regularly.

I have enabled a 'version-incremental' OTA Update, as soon as you flash 1.2.2.5, and run OTA Updater, and check for Updates, you will be getting a small update which increments the version. Install it and test the brand new feature.

If you are on v1.2, and flash OTA Enabler, then the app will show you v1.2.2.0 installed, don't worry, its v1.2 itself.

Let me know any errors.
[Samsung Galaxy Star] LoVeRice:
hi AvinabaDalal any chance you combine all these updates and make it as a one rom?
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
Yeah. All the updates will be combined, many new features will be added in a single zip.

It will be available both via ota and via web. But it is not coming anytime before April.

Update 1.2.3.5 rolling via OTA

This update fixes Camera Panorama Mode. (Thanks to <guess who?>).

Download Link for 1.2.3 added in OP.

Note - All the bugs reported by users so far has now been fixed. Enjoy!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Star] ARGHA_DAS:
What about the..theme of the rom ? pr still its..Comes with xperia pirates theme or Stock theme?
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
Based on stock theme, built on akshay's rom
[Samsung Galaxy Star] ARGHA_DAS:
Okk....Bro u can add..some HK themes pre-install and hktheme manager cuz...it gives ur rom a perfect look after activating xposed framework
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
I have included xTheme Engine package in the #2 post.

Update : OTA Update is now fixed for version 1.2.3.5, if you see the following changelog :

Then you are good to go.

If not, then go to Settings->Applications->All apps->OTA Updater and clear data.

No need to reboot after that, go to OTA App, manually check for updates (ignore toasts) and you are good to go.
[Samsung Galaxy Star] ARGHA_DAS:
[MENTION=5632655]T3snake[/MENTION] Now bro say what to do? u already explain him with xda..words but .this guy still..Mking fun of this forum...

[Samsung Galaxy Star] rasoulia:
Hi This rom for s5280 Or S5282?
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
Both

Both

Flash v1.2 update in which you can select single or dual sim ui as per your requirements.
[Samsung Galaxy Star] Pasiana:
Gallery+Camera....why?

I wanted to uninstall stock Gallery bcoz it is occupying approx 24MB space.............but somehow Camera App is associated with it and when I uninstalled Gallery App, Camera App was gone...........I am using QuickPic (only 9MB) as Picture Viewer so plz tell me that is there anyway to uninstall Gallery but to keep default Camera app......thnx
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
Nope

Camera is integrated with the gallery app itself, so if you remove gallery, camera will be removed too.

Alternatively, you can download camera jb app from play store to meet your needs.
[Samsung Galaxy Star] grdharsh19:
Hey do I need to install any kernal before installing this ROM??
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
Nope, kernel is prebuilt.
[Samsung Galaxy Star] grdharsh19:
Since i am installing this rom first time so which 1 I will have to download I.e. Can I download only the newer update and flash it or do I need to download v1.1 and flash it??
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
You have to download v1.1, its main ROM, then you can install the updates if you want.

I will recommend you to download v1.2 update at least.
[Samsung Galaxy Star] Ruvy:
What's wrong with tethering ? Hotspot and usb tethering not working at all. Gets activated for a second and then switches back to OFF.
[Samsung Galaxy Star] yusharap:
Are we need to flash a whole update?
[Samsung Galaxy Star] corphish:
Not necessary, but v1.1 and then v1.2 is must. Updates after that are optional.

This can happen if you are migrating from newest firmware as it has got new baseband. (Well maybe).
[Samsung Galaxy Star] Pasiana:
Seeder Not Working !!!

Seeder is not working on this ROM......now i remember the reason behind switching to Stock Rom
