[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lllukas:
I have that, everything working good so far.

I manually formatted sdcard0 to vfat, after applying repartition in Odin, next I flashed ROM, gapps.

What do you want to know?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xavierlmk:
need help:x

I follow installation instruction to flash beta5.

Put zip file to external sdcard (vfat) and use CWM Kitkat compatible recovery flash beta5 rom without gapps. But after reboot system keep in bootloop more than 30min or above. I try to flash beta 3, 4 and give me same result.

Also, I try use different pit(1gb system 3/4/6gb data and stock pit) to re-partition. But nothing changes.

If I flash back CM11 is working without bootloop.

Thanks

Just wanted to say thanks for packaging this up.

I had a few issues installing it with full gapps, but have the following fixes

Used a PIT file, but this didn't resize the data filesystem, so I had to reboot into recovery then use adb shell and resize2fs to resize the filesystem itself (resize2fs is on the /system partition so you need to mount that first)

Even when the flash has enough memory, the /tmp partition is too small to hold the zip when sideloading (I sideload because I haven't figured out where files go yet, but it also seams like a cleaner way of doing it on low memory devices), so I had to use adb shell to remount the tmp partion with a larger limit (command is something like mount -o remount,size=$NEW_SIZE,$ORIGINAL_OPTIONS /tmp) By default tmpfs is limited to 1/2 your ram, so while you're in recovery mode it's safe nearly double it.

Questions, ADB and MMS

Hello,

I recently installed this MOD + gapps nano. THanks to all the people involved for allowing me to try Lollipop :)

I have a few questions about some things I dont understand (I am new to android custom modding), and I couldn't find answers on the internet :

- if the kernel handles low level communications with hardware, and if video recording worked with previous version of Android, how is it possible that it gets broken with a new version of the software Android ? Why would the kernel have to be modified specifically for Lollipop, since the hardware did not change ?

- Gapps and FACTORYFS (mounted as /system) partition. Right now, without changing the partitioning of the ROM of my phone, I have to install Gapps nano version, because my FACTORYFS is too small. But then I can manually install from Google Play all the applications. I assume they get installed in DATAFS partition. Isn't it possible to design a gapps package that would get installed in the DATAFS partition instead of FACTORYFS ?

Besides, I noticed a few problems upon installing the mod:

- I noticed it wiped my previous recovery with a more recent version. I would be ok with that but it seems to have broken the adb connection. The "adb shell" command no longer works, or any adb command. If I go back to Recovery_CWM_6.0.4.7_I9100.zip it works again

- I noticed MMS downloading doesnt work, but I am not sure if it is due to this version of the MOD because I hadn't received any MMS while in CyanogenMod 11 Nightly. It did work with Samsung stock ROM.

Best Regards,

Olivier V.

It's not a Mod!! It is a new Android version. And nano gapps is to big for stock partion you need pico or smaller.

Yes, sorry for my mistake.

It did work with the file pa_gapps-modular-nano-5.0.1-BETA5-20141225-signed.zip.

My FACTORYFS(/system) partition has a size of 536 870 912 B, I did not change it, and the file has a size of 116*273*999 B.

I did resize my DATAFS partition, enlarging it in detriment of the UMS (usb mass storage) partition, to be able to install as much applications as I want.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nick_Knight:
Then you look on the first page CM12 unofficial you will found all you need also stock partion.

I give you a tip when you will have a smooth phone, make Systempartion bigger. I use 768mb since KK with art it want more space than dalvik in systempartion. Lollipop has only art.

Heyy!! Great Work! Never thought my 4 year old device will ever see Lollipop until i stumbled upon Android Authority's article on your ROM! It's working perfectly, however I found a couple of issues on my device. Firstly, Apps downloading from the PlayStore take way too long or just don't download at all... Is this a ROM issue or is there a setting I need to enable/disable? Also there is a regular crash which takes the phone to the recent apps page which is unresponsive, and then a black screen, then it reboots let's say every 5 minutes. Please address it.

Audio playback volume rises to extremely loud levels

Hi all,

First of all, many thanks to Lysergic Acid for this great ROM! The i9100 will not be allowed to go quietly into the darkness!

I have seen a report in the development thread on this bug, so I want to second it here:

When listening to music and also using another app that gives audio notifications that temporarily lower the volume of the music (in my case: Waze and Endomondo, in the development thread: Runtastic), following a notification by the second app the music volume should return to its previous volume. Instead, the music's volume is raised to extremely loud (and painful when wearing earphones) level.

When you press the volume rocker, the music volume returns to normal levels.

Definitely a shock, when it happens the first time...

Hope this report finds its way to sympathetic and knowledgeable ears...

Cheers and a happy new year to all
