I could easily live without any messenger program (live or msn). Automatica update would be ok to leave out as long as there was a way to re-add it if it were to be functional at some point. I would just like to be able to use the newer radio roms that have much better reception than the older (2.19) radio roms and not lose any calls, texts, etc.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] masr1979:
I forgot to mention Live, but that's also something we can later add, and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to do it either.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mmain:
I agree with Ed, the things that we are going to "add ourselves" will be going into storage space that could hold mp3s, movies, video game emulators, when there is perfectly good, unusable storage not being utilized. I use Voice Command often and I would rather that be in ROM storage.

So perhaps for someone like me (who doesn't cook)it's best to start with [real thing] and just delete the stuff that I'll never use...

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] faria:
i agree with all your points above.....some of you want it extra clean.....some of you want it as factory.......an then there is the ones that want a "faria rom"

well there is only 1 solution ....as a said before.... 2 versions

i was unable to do so.....this is most to do with lack of time....but i have made some changes....i have not yet received any feed back from the testers
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] danik_iceman:
Hello Faria,

For vanilla:

I liked the idea of masr1979. It would be really cool if rom cookers included applications that were taken away, and applications (maybe register fix cabs too) that they think might be good choice to put into the rom, but were not put for some reason. So, if they all were provided in a separate zip file (or rar) when the rom is released, everybody would be able to install them if they wanted.

For loaded roms:

I also wanted to say that I liked your [the real thing] and most of the applications included. However, when I was trying some other roms I wanted to install some application that were in your rom. So, it took me a while to find all of them. If you included the cab files for all applications you had in your rom when you were releasing it, it would make life easier for everbody :).

And I think that all rom cookers should do that.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] faria:
thanks friends....this is what is all about! it is wise to use all the space in the rom....and this hardly impacts the performance,,,,,,and this comes from the guru itself...mamaich.its very hard to accommodate everyone....
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] faria:
1- this is very hard...because i would have to convert all the modules into files....then i would need to include a how to for every app!.....and then i would get tons of PMS asking for help.....this would work if there was a common ROM kitchen for everyone.... this is also something that I'm working on.

2- this is what makes my Roms diferent.....i take countless hours looking for the best apps to include.....then i have to make them into packages....

this is not an easy task.

what you asking is a good idea....but not for a hoby....as this is .

also i don't think it is to much for you to look for an app that you like...after all....i have to look for them .disassemble them ,pack them,integrate....etc... plus research is about 80% of rom cooking.

it all comes down to 1 thing ....TIME.....and that I'm seriously lacking....
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] danik_iceman:
Yes, I understand...But don't you have the cabs for the application? For example, X-button, battery status, etc..I mean I could find most of them in the forum. So, i just downloaded them and installed and they don't need instructions about how to install and configure them. They are all usual applications. So, you could at least provide simlpe cab files similiar to the ones listed above. I know there are some applications that are not that easy to install. But, some are easy. And I am asking for the ones that are easy and that you can provide. I am not asking for all of them.

You might probably have most of them in cabs files too. Or you don't?

What I am saying is that when you are realeasing a rom you could post one link for the rom itself and a second link (i.e. to rapidshare) where you would have all these cab files that you have and can provide. Of courses, that won't work if you don't have these these applications in cab files.

Some Beta Feedback

Ok, the Beta ROM has only been on for about 4 hours, but here's initial feedback:

IPL/SPL: 2.26

GSM: 2.19

OS: 2.18 WWE

Install went on with no issue. Normal pause at 99%. I did notice there is no 2nd splash screen (I do like the first one). Also, you mentioned there was a problem with setting the time after install. I went ahead and set my timezone to Mountain anyway and it stuck (I didn't get the Africa timezone you said happened to some after softreset). I was surprised though that it didn't do the traditional Faria rom where it asked what cell provider I had. Just said it was going to do the setup in 3 secs, and bam it did the soft reset (very quick). But it appeared my GPRS was setup for Cingular afterwards. I then installed the MMS cab setup I have, and verified SMS and MMS was working (no issues there). Also PIE worked fine connecting via GPRS.

I've now been playing with WiFi most of the afternoon and so far its worked flawlessly. Initially I had some issues where it didn't want to stay connected to my AP, but after a soft reset its been great (so could have been something flakey with all the 3rd party apps I loaded).

I've got my SyncML up and running with my company's calendar / contacts system and that works great (both via GPRS and WiFi). ROM seems very fast. Menus are nice and quick (even before overclocking).

I did notice that with BatteryStatus Beta 3, that it shows when sitting idle the battery has a drain of 137mA on it which seems high. After a soft reset it sits around 64mA which is about double what I saw on the nottoosmart and xplore roms. But then I haven't had the battery really pulled down low and recharged yet so it could be its still getting a feel for this rom's usage requirements too (not a complaint, just an observation). I have not put on any power tweaks yet (and won't unless I see major battery drain after 24 hours).

Very Vanilla (not even smartskey is in the beta) so for some this will be very nice, others I'm sure will complain. Personally this looks like a great base for chefs to start cooking new custom roms from.

Again, only had it on for about 4 hours, but so far, no issues I've seen. All my 3rd party stuff is working (Pocket Weather, Pocket Breeze, Pocket Informant, SyncML, WisbarLite (I'll try WisbarAdv2 later)), and the menus and all are snappy. I'm overclocking with Batterystatus to 260Mhz and using the CPUscaler in it to drop to 143Mhz.

Before anyone asks, this is a limited beta. It is coming, but Faria asked for comments to be posted here so thats what I'm doing. Don't post / PM asking for a copy of this (as this beta is not ready for general release).
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Tsuioku:
I think a better long term solution would be to have a new sticky w/ links to popular programs... clean up the "Best Freeware" sticky (ie move all links to the first post)... or update the wiki page (I recall seeing one a while back)...

While I understand many people's desire for a super clean rom, I still think the ROM should be maximized. If you don't like the program, just delete the link from programs and remove the startup. On a side note, is it possible to delete items from Settings? Voice Command vs Voice Dial is probably one of the bigger debates here but cannot be easily removed from Settings. Also due to their size, it's a waste of space to have it installed afterwards instead of just having it in the ROM.

@Faria: When you said two versions... do you mean the original statements in this thread about creating an extra clean and an OEM? Or do you mean the release here and the update to "The Real Thing"?

@mfrazzz: When you get the chance, can you try testing the bluetooth? Sending files and automatic re-pairing in particular. These seem to be the problems I have encountered w/ every WM6 rom I'ved used so far... I had no problems while using Faria's 3.3 which is why I've been so anxious for Faria's Vanilla...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Can you tell me about the "re-pairing" problem? I use a BT headset (Plantronics Explorer 510) and have not had any issues (that I've noticed) on WM6 roms and re-pairing. Describe what you mean... I do have a habit though that when I walk back into a room / vehicle that I left my phone in, I just hit the button on my earpiece. Habit I got into due to how a Nokia phone I had worked.

I'll try to do file transfer later. I don't have a bluetooth USB on my PC (but I think a friend does at a place I'll be later this evening). Otherwise it will be tomorrow.

Any other requests?

Re: Beta

Hi,

Since you have BatteryStatus 1.04 beta 3, could you let me know what the idle cpu utilization is? The battery draw is apparently unreliable.

Thanks,
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
An update... When I turn on my phone, I now notice it shows 30 - 40mA draw on BS (so this is right in line with what I'd see with XPlore and NotTooSmart's roms). So far in the 5+ hours on my phone, I'm showing the battery is down from 80% to 79% (so less than 2% drain it appears) and thats with receiving 4 sms, 2 short (less than 3 minute) phone calls, and using PIE over GPRS to check gmail (I haven't installed the midlet yet) for about 2 minutes.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rowdypixel:
Hello,

I upgraded my Verizon Galaxy S4 from CM11 to CM12 last night, using the nightly build from 1/7/2015. The upgrade went smoothly, except for gapps. I have not been able to get them to successfully run on Lollipop. I have tried the following builds of gapps:

PA GAPPS

2014-11-09

2014-12-20

I use the following installation process each time:

Boot into CWM 6.0.3.2

wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache partition

mounts and storage > format /system

wipe dalvik cache

install CM.zip

install gapps.zip

When I reboot the phone, it gets into the lock screen as expected, but when I swipe it to unlock, I instantly get a stream of errors ("Setup wizard has stopped", "Google+ has stopped", etc). The exact errors depend on which gapps version I install, since they come with (slightly) different apps in the packages.

Has anyone had success with the Lollipop gapps packages and CyanogenMod?

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuyAdams:
Got my Shield Tablet a week ago, really enjoying it so far.

However, I've noticed when I settle in the for evenings I can hear a very faint speaker crackle coming from the lower speaker but can still be heard out of the upper one. Its super faint.

I don't know if its when its connected to its charger, or if its happening all the time but I can only hear it in a silent room. I'll check and report back tonight but if anyone else has experienced this, I'd love to know.

Many thanks
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lomallin:
I have heard it as well. My hearing has always been sensitive enough I can hear the old CRT TVs when they are on, and even heard the color wheel of an old projection TV going before it finally quit. This is in the same frequency as those things.

I hear a static sound randomly from the speakers and I have not pinned down the cause as it happens at rest and very active times. I believe some of this might be from the heatsink from previous items I have read about.

The second item is the high pitched whine which I hear connected to my S4 power charger. Again, intermittent there, it does not always make the sound, but it does make it often enough that it is not rare.

I only hear the whine on the charger, but I never hear the whine off the charger.

I sometimes hear both the static/crackle and the whine sometimes, so the whine may be from something in the charging process.

Sorry, I know not much information, but more of a vote that you aren't hearing things and some experiences I have had so far.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuyAdams:
I really appreciate your reply thank you, at least I know it's not just me.

I'm just trying to figure out if I should RMA it or not. Sat in bed typing this and the noise is there until the display is off. Doesn't matter if it's on charge or not. Odd though as I haven't heard it all day.

It almost sounds like a very small short in a speaker somewhere.

Thanks again.

I've saw a lot of these posts and I also had the same Issue.

first of all I'm not taking any responsible for this, but it worked for me so.. you can at least try if you have no option left.

please note thatYOU WILL LOSE EVERYTHING on the internal storage of your LG G3!

IF YOU DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO DOWNLOAD MODE :

Please get yourself the right LAF file for your phone and insert it into the adb.exe and the fastboot.exe folder (if you don't know what I talk about please download Android SDK platform)

press Ctrl+Shift and right click inside the folder and choose Open Command window here (http://img5013.photobox.co.uk/11895...2cd987792512dcafe1c9acf628a3ef5b3a604bc5f.jpg)

Now at the CMD window that opened Type :

If you can't find the LAF file for your phone you'll have to Extract it from the KDZ file using this Tool http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2600575

Now you can accesses the download mode by restarting the phone.

Take the battery and the Sync cable out

while pressing the +Vol button insert the battery and the cable while continuing holding it

IF YOU HAVE ACCESS TO DOWNLOAD MODE :

Please download the TOT and .Dll files specifically for your phone from here: http://downloadandroidfiles.org/Files/LG G3/Stock Files/

after that follow this video and you're all good :
