The regular fire tv can do this as well. It's using CEC. What I found was that the simple things like the arrow keys worked, but Home and I believe Menu didn't work.
[Fire TV General] spyder3:
Samsung CEC...not so much. The Fire TV remote wakes the Fire TV and changes inputs, but no control.

What's the difference between the RC versions and the dev build black power edition versions of PAC ROM?
[PAC Q&A] Langes:
Questions about black power edition will not be answered here as it is not officially supported by PAC

That being said, the RC builds are scheduled automatic builds (nightlies) whereas dev builds are manual builds (can be stock, can have mods)

Sent from my Xperia Z1
[PAC Q&A] Savya:
Oh I see. So as a user it is safer for me to stay on rc or nightlies than the black power build, correct?
[PAC Q&A] Langes:
I'm a PAC man, I'll always tell you to flash PAC :D

Okay thanks a bunch :D

I've rooted my phone and also applied the 6GB ebr for internal storage. How do I install the new 5.4MB update without getting stuck in a bootloop? It says it fixes the battery charging cycles, has anyone tried it?
[Xolo Q1010i] K.khiladi:
This problem isn't fixed still. That update makes the device go to bootloop. The previous update flashed successfully.
[X 2014 Accessories] WinDroidGuy:
Simple case, protects the phone and doesn't add much bulk.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: I want to build a ROM for Galaxy Ace Plus. Where do I start?

A: I'm looking into providing a tutorial soon so that other users can also build ROMs for our phone.

Q: Lollipop. When?

A: When KitKat for our phone is stable, Lollipop would be considered. But now, nope.

Q: I found a fix for a bug. Where do I send it?

A: You can PM it to me, or post it in the thread. ALL FIXES ARE WELCOME.

Q: Your sources?

A: All my sources are on my GitHub profile. I make sure that all my GitHub uploads can be built successfully before I publish them in order to avoid a lot of build errors.

Q: I want a transparent status bar. How do I do that?

A: /system/build.prop should be ro.config.low_ram=false (unchanged), then open Settings > Performance (you will only see this after enabling Developer Options, which you could do by going to Settings > About Phone and tapping the Build Number 7 times) > then check Force High-End Graphics then reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Gurtej Sandhu:
ThankGod..!!!

There is still a ray of hope for our phone.!!

Great work Dev.!!
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] AndroidVin:
Recently I saw in the galaxy mini 2 section that the camcoder has been fixed in cm 10.1 by using a precompiled gallery2.apk with working camcorder...in addiction I saw a commit that can could be useful ( https://github.com/bleached/android...mmit/af94d358984527323c5dcd6f6e7ebff942c6a35c ) ....could be helpful for our ace plus cm11, even if is based on kitkat? I hope so ......good work developer, I appreciate so much your work, your efforts.....keep it up...thanks!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Liam D.:
That's a good find. Will add that fix to the next build.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Iceman:
Liam D,

Great to see CM11 for our ace plus alive again here :good:, now what i really hope is camera & camcoder can fix on build 2 or next build update on future. especially the bugs of camconder are all the time of ace plus problem seems in JB till KK. appreciate for you hardwork honestly. hope can see the build 2 soon. the best is see ace plus still alive. :fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Liam D.:
I'm aiming for the camera fix. Right now the camera is being detected in the kernel, but could not load it because it seems to not read the Camera HAL module. The next build will be using a different version of the android frameworks that would allow the loading of the camera HAL. Right now the only problems we have in my logcats are the proprietary parts that Samsung did not make fully open-source.

For instance, our camera is a proprietary version of msm7x27a and even though there are other similar cameras on the similar boards, ours contain some lines of code from Samsung that we cannot reverse engineer, making it hard to re-create the camera module.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] ehsan13:
thanks

Dear developer liam

Thanks a billion times for trying cyanogen 11 on ace plus .

we appreciate your efforts.

Waiting for cm 11 bugfree

I'll be the first tester...

:fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Iceman:
ok i understand, i know is not the easy task especially what you are facing now for the camera issue, i see what i can help. Thanks. good luck & appreciated all the time.;)
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Liam D.:
I am VERY PLEASED to announce:

That I have fixed the Camera issue on Build #2. Camera is NOW WORKING!

New build will be uploaded later within the week after I have completed my testing.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Iceman:
Wow....really good news! You are great:thumbup: how is camcorder? Work as well:) anyway thanks for you hardwork... Cannot wait for download build 2 :D.... Thanks & congratulation. :thumbup:
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Liam D.:
Updated OP with Changelog for Build #2.

Thanks. All that's left to resolve is the WebKit lag. Starting to upload Build #2 right now. Build #3 should be in the works very soon. I want Build #3 to be a final stable release, so I'm hoping for more bug reports during Build #2 so that I can work on the remaining bugs for Build #3.

As for camcorder, same issue with other 4.x ROMs for Ace Plus. Native camcorder doesn't work properly, but using third-party apps work.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] AndroidVin:
Well done Liam, you are a great developer!!! Thank you so much....I will try build #2...I hope to see a stable release on our ace plus...
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Liam D.:
Build #2 is now online! See the OP for the download link.

For bug reports, please include a logcat. Thank you!

Liam D. flash seems don't work.

Please, test in your phone.

Note: If you flash this https://disk.yandex.com/public/?hash=NIIjDsscL7gafATeEm3V188iUzIjmAsixly8YliwBeE= maybe work again.

It's the FIX for the same problem in SpeedMod ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] kk9999gada:
Great Work. Appreciate your Hard Work.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Liam D.:
Hm. That might have something to do with the fix I applied recently for the camera.

Have you tried using the Xposed Module for it? If it works, then I'll put that method into OP for a temporary fix as I work on reverting to the old code. As for your link, it's broken.

Thanks for reporting!
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] pcomet:
Yap, link broken :/

What module you say?
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Liam D.:
This Xposed module: http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.bassel.flashlightfixer

Please try that and tell me if it works.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] pcomet:
I fooled me, meant "autofocus" don't work instead of flash.

I'll try flash soon and i say something.

Note: Apollo don't play music! For FIX, use "Omich Player" from PlayStore.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] kaushikb.1996:
Thanks but is the lag in YouTube app more when compared to speed ROM and any other bugs ??
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] bipindr123:
hey liam i found some bugs

hope you can fix them

1. call merge or conference call does not work

2. when playing music through a Bluetooth device its breaks and lags
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] mirhl:
LOGCAT. That's the secret
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Liam D.:
May I know what Bluetooth device/model this issue happens with? I lost my Bluetooth headset earlier this month so I can't test it out for sure, but I'll look into it.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] bipindr123:
nope i think its the same

the other bugs are also present in speed rom so you really have an option there

---------- Post added at 08:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:33 AM ----------

Its a built in car Bluetooth speaker(volkswagen)
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Liam D.:
Hm, thanks for the model info.

As for YouTube lag, yep that exists in all KitKat ROMs for our phone. We're having a hard time porting old libraries from Gingerbread (Samsung isn't really friendly to open-source, they didn't bother releasing a source tree so we had to make one up for our own).
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] AndroidVin:
I found a MINOR bug (that is not so important) : when I try to listen to a whatsapp recorded audio message by getting close my phone to the ear, the recorded audio message is still played by the rear speaker and not by the front one, like it should.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] pozidrivphil:
I'm just so glad that development for this phone is still on track!!

Thanks a bunch to all involved!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Liam D.:
Acknowledged.

Once the sources finish syncing (it should be done by tomorrow if nothing goes wrong), development will be resumed. I'm just glad I uploaded all the sources before I switched machines.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Angjinhang:
Hardware acceleration is...?

Hi all :D pretty excited when I see this post, and I'm quite eager to test this out (for that cool theme engine!)

But before I really dive in I would like to make sure of something.

The Hardware Acceleration bug is about what? What it affects? Because I play games on my phone (mostly ToS, and sometimes Duet) that require OpenGL, this bug worries me.

Will these apps be affected? Btw, if I want to install this rom, i should:

1. Flash rom

2. Flash GApps (micro ver.)

3. Flash fix for flashlight and audio.

Is that all? Or are there some after-work (or preparation) I need to do?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Liam D.:
Hardware acceleration is most commonly used in video playback (alternatively, most video players support software decoding as well, so that won't be a problem) and in browsing the web through the built-in browser (you could use alternative browsers in the meantime like Firefox or Opera that use their own engines).

I'm not sure how it will affect the games you mentioned, but if it makes a comparison, I can play Clash of Clans on it. Albeit not a very intensive game, I don't experience lags on it anyway.

Hope that helps. To install, do as you would with other ROMs. Wipe data/cache/system then flash this ROM, then Gapps.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Angjinhang:
Thanks! (Since Clash of Clans worked so I expect mine to work too!)

Will install this rom after Christmas :)
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] kaushikb.1996:
I am trying out the ROM and till now its fantastic but here is a suggestion, can you please make 150 as default screen density because on 160 the widgets are little bit distorted and it looks little uncomfortable especially the clock widgets. thanks for your great work :)
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Liam D.:
LCD density of 150 breaks the lock screen and gapps. You can adjust it on your own by editing /system/build.prop.

Sources finished downloading, guess you all know what that means. I'll keep you guys posted.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] kaushikb.1996:
Already changed can you please tell me what you mean by breaking lock screen and gapps ??
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Liam D.:
By breaking I mean it breaks on build, not when used live. It distorts the view (you can only see half of the keypad, or something like that) -- you can edit it when you use the ROM, I just can't edit it during the build because it will break.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] bipindr123:
is fast charge default or do you need some 3rd party app to activate it

if so which one?
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Liam D.:
Fast charging is enabled in the kernel, although I don't have the equipment to test it out.

In other news. EXPERIMENTAL WebKit Lag fix applied for the upcoming Build #3. For future reference, see https://gist.github.com/xenLiam/498f9ac8208ac4d2977e. For other builders of CyanogenMod 11 for msm7x27a, here are the paths:

Patch #1 goes to frameworks/base

Patch #2 goes to frameworks/webview

Patch #3 goes to packages/apps/Browser

Patch #4 goes to external/skia

Patch #5 goes to external/chromium

These patches will be merged into the repo soon. I'm kinda new to patches and I'm still learning where to put them. They are already merged for Build #3.

UPDATE: This patch is temporarily disabled for Build #3, seems like it needs more stuff and dependencies to work. On the bright side, I've added a TON of RAM-saving tweaks for Build #3 and re-enabled Kernel Samepage Merging.

Will look into it, although I don't have problems with using 3G in my phone. Although I think the new additions to CyanogenMod 11 Milestone 12 will fix some of the issues, considering they DID correct an issue with some protocols.

Later i'm say somehow about this "phenomenon" :laugh::eek:;):D
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Liam D.:
Must be because the system estimates battery life depending on statistics from previous points in time before recharging. Although I can't say I'm sure myself. :P

If this is a better setup, I'll make these as default for Build 3.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Iceman:

How was the camcorder bugs? Can be solve on coming built 3? Good luck anyway :thumbup:
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Liam D.:

To be honest, a lot of stuff just broke even more when I updated the sources to match the latest version from Cyanogenmod (CM 11 Milestone 12). Still have to do a lot of fixing.

Sensors

Have a look at screenshots. We have 7 Sensors showing up on Stock ROM and CM 10.1.3 but in CM11 there are only 4 sensors. I mean CM11 should also show up 7 instead of 4 sensors.

Then from where our stock rom is collecting this data. ?? :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] kk9999gada:

Bluetooth fix

Dear pall.

the bluetooth fix in that forum must not install regularly.

You should copy that file to Root/system/app folder (Overwrite) using a root file explorer like "Solid Explorer"

Then long press the file and choose "properties"

then go to attributes and change it to

Owner = R & W

group = R

other = R

then save changes and restart your phone.
