I love the performance built on the BMS kernel but sadly ViperFX can't run on it because I'm not able to change SELinux to permissive using the SELinux Mode changer or manually through terminal. Using Electron kernel atm because from my Antutu benchmark with stock settings performed pretty decently with a score of 19252 and I get to use my beloved ViperFX <3

Can I have a link towards the Leankernel lollipop build? I can't seem to find it on google.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
Interesting. Good to know.

LK for LP is quite early, not sure how it works for you, here's the link to Imoseyon's onedrive, look for lk10.0t1:

Camera bug

I am new here, but old at programming.

If someone can point me to some initial directions, I would like to try and take on the camera issue.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
I wish I could give you pointers, but I am barely grasping it myself. From what I gather the problem is with so called vendor blobs that contain camera firmware revisions, something either doesn't match over there or Android OS sources call something wrong, maybe in configuration files related to d2 variants (likely).

You can check vendor blobs that are synced from TheMuppets github here:

https://github.com/TheMuppets

D2 sources are taken from LiquidSmooth-Devices repo

https://github.com/LiquidSmooth-Devices

Android OS itself is synced from LiquidSmooth repo:

https://github.com/LiquidSmooth

LS itself syncs (and alters) from CM12 sources, that would be CyanogenMod repo:

https://github.com/CyanogenMod

Those are all huge repositories, don't expect to read through all that, use search to find pieces.

If my nose is right, problem is within TM vendor blob for samsung d2 hardware or samsung d2 device sources in LSD.

This ROM is freaking AWESOME! Well, there is still some camera problems on it, but I will wait for your fix.:)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cameron_taylor:
AWESOME!!

will wait for your camera fix ........... ummmmmm... would love the lollipop boot on animation
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Smoothzz:
The new ROM fixed the problem. Flashed it and theme manger working fine. Thanks a lot...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
Thanks! For now I don't know how to fix camera, but am thinking about it :)

Boot animation will be easy to change after Themes for CM12 are introduced into Play Store (Theme Manager will be able to use them).

Glad to hear that! :) :good:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] canodroid15:
[MENTION=4474827]fenixus[/MENTION], Sounds good man! I'm currently testing a few ROMs for other devs & teams so just hit me up when needed! d2att build posted runs just fine! Thanks again & good job bro!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
:) glad to hear.

I got the d2usc tested by somebody too. Others like d2vzw and d2spr are untested so far. If all goes like this I can build those blind once a week and keep d2tmo done nightly or every 2 days or so depending on spare time.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] canodroid15:
I'm glad you chose BMS to bundle! Long time user of BMS! I know some won't care for BMS but they can flash any kernel they like so its really a win win! Thanks again! Look forward to hearing from you!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
hehe, I learned about bms from this thread lol. in past I used LeanKernel a lot and loved it, but Imoseyon had no time to do a proper build for CM12 yet (only 1 test build derived from CM11).

I'm doing some kernel performance testing using various builds that people mention, and so far there is only 3 of them worth using (or bundling). For now I chose what was giving the best performance , I like nice Antutu scores :)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ARBI.TUNIS:
i finally install d2att but how to install apps from sd card ?

and the theme manager crash i hope you fix it

btw it is a great work
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] MARK LWANGA:
HEY i love ur liquid smooth rom i downloaded ur latest build but theme manager can not install any theme even from the playstore when ever i install a theme i get this notification "theme name failed to install" can you please fix this and am using a galaxy s3 tmobile T999L...... thanx for the awesome rom :)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] shahzaadhasan:
Flashed and using since 2 days, working great for me on my T999 (d2tmo) except the issues mentioned by OP. Many thanks for the great effort for our old devices.

I'm new to the custom ROMS and just using since last few months. So advance excuses for my silly question. What type of kernels can I flash with this LS-LP-v4 ROM for performance and battery life improvement? Can I use stock kernels available here with this LS-LP-v4 ROM.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mp3deviant721:
You will need an CM/AOSP kernel for Lollipop. No other kernels will work. However, I advise you to flash his latest build which has BMS kernel in it which is a custom kernel. Its a pretty good kernel too and he made a good choice in including it.

GS³: CyanideL + ShiftKernel Edition™

ギミチョコ！！
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] shahzaadhasan:
Thanks, downloading the latest build and will try for some days. I was just wondering as my experience with battery performance in last three days was not good as compared to unofficial CM12. I hope for better performance with built-in BMS kernel and cam issue will also be fixed soon in coming releases ;)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] flip3601:
Neocore kernel is pretty good also I was using that on the last 2 kk ROMs I was using. It supports lp ROMs now also.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
Found a slight issue with BMS kernel and I think it's the same one as reported before regarding SElinux (can't change to Permissive) ... I can't see logcats (using Catlog app) while BMS is running ... works fine on other kernels. BMS is too restrictive. Flash it separately if you like it, linked it in Downloads, but new builds won't be bundled with it.

Might switch bundled kernel back to CM12 for now or considering the Cyanide's Shift D2 Kernel (second to best performance wise) which also supports F2FS, but doesn't allow OC (yet).

Regarding camera issue, I'm digging on what caused the problem in CM10 and CM11 and reading what the fixes were. Pretty interesting stuff.

Found two articles on it, haven't tested anything yet, if anyone is willing to read into it or do some testing feel free to experiment:

Regarding Neocore kernel, I can only say that it is the most horrible kernel I have ever seen ...

Here's the performance of it when compared to most popular kernels, awesome right:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] flip3601:
Well that's rather interesting. I never used it on a lp ROM just kk and I was pretty happy w/ it. I just figured since he started supporting lp ROMs it would b pretty good. Guess not. My bad.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
no worries, I didn't write that of out hatred lol, just tested it along with others not long ago and noticed that some glorified custom kernels show worse performance than the stock inline kernel, I usually skip those and pick something giving better performance.

BMS has great performance, but there are issues (SElinux), Shift doesn't have OC and LK is not really there yet for CM12 unless someone wants to use the beta Test1 revision (it works fine tho).
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] flip3601:
Its cool. I remember reading that u were gonna test a bunch of kernels w/ this ROM I just couldn't remember the outcomes from them n which kernels u tried lol

imei not showing

hi i got this really cool room a few days ago, i really like it, but camara works sometimes, nothing to worry about, but i see the phone says there its no sim card, and also i got no calls out, i can recive calls or massage but i cant make any, and when i try to see my imei on the phone by *#06# says imei, but shows nothing... what could be wrong??
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
Which phone model and rom build you have? Try different kernel first. If that doesn't help, upgrade modem/radio firmware in your phone.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
I am on to something regarding camera firmware files (SlimISP) in /system/cameradata ... they are all having 644 permissions while as I read they all should be 755, wondering if changing permissions on those files fixes the camera ...

From other things we already have the SlimISP_ZH.bin firmware file in there which was the actual fix for AOSP/CM10/CM11 and the md5sum matches with the one from fix patch, so that is good.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mp3deviant721:
I tried the flashable zip from the first link you posted earlier on Cyanide and all I'm able to do is attempt to take pic, the app crashes before the pic is recorded... Just thought I'd let you know.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
OK, safe to dismiss then, I checked the META-INFO installer script for that package and it replaces the Camera2.apk and some other stuff in /system directory adding one extra library. You might want to reflash the ROM to get rid off it.

EDIT:

tried fixing permissions from 644 to 755 on /system/cameradata/SlimISP_ binaries, no luck either.

btw can let 'FREEDOM" work ?? ... after installing it .. says not available for this device

and btw um...... can i edit the white menu .... like place icons custom install of alphabetical and ummm.... could i use a background image instead of the white menu ??
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
To avoid issues, I am reverting to bundled inline CM12 kernel, there will be no more F2FS support in it (based on answers from poll there is minimal interest in it).

If you want a different Kernel, I linked optional alternative with credits to their respective creators in first post, flash your favorite kernel after flashing ROM.

Soon I will be putting up new build 2015/01/20 for d2tmo.

Mind that Theme Manager (based on CM12 sources) is still a work in progress, you can check news on that in Google+ Liquid Smooth page:

Noobie question

what happen to ... gallery ... file manger .... s voice ... and SNS
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
Which gapps did you flash? Some are micro or minimal releases with not many apps. File manager is not included in this ROM, use anything you like Es File manager or Astro.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cameron_taylor:
The one in this thread .... playstore wasnt working ... so i had to download ... gapp 5.0.1 beta (423 mb ) <<< dont remember the size but its da stock gapps .... then flaash it then play store work .... where could i get the official lolliipop file manager app?? ... and no screen sreenshot on my device ??? ( how can i screen shot ) and what about SNS ??
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
Regarding 1/20 build.

It got me baffled greatly because of missing App drawer launcher lol, not sure if I deleted mine accidentally while at work or it flashed like that with rom - took me a while to figure it out. Well, easy to recover it thanks to SlimLauncher integration in this build...

Just go to widgets - pressing menu on home screen will get you close, then tap & hold Slimlauncher and place it on homescreen. Tap it and select App shortcut than place it in middle of the dock where its supposed to be :)

Just a reminder, those are nightly builds so anything can happen. Secondly I am not developing this ROM (Liquid Smooth team is), I am merely building it and sharing and using myself. If you don't like something or have opinion to share with developers you can do it on their G+ page.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
Buddy, you must be the only guy with gapps trouble, sorry to hear. Nobody else had trouble with this ROM coupled with official gapps linked in this thread.

Official L's fm may get merged later if L's does so, I'm not doing it. Use something else in meantime.

You can take a screenie on most aosp ROMs by holding Vol Down and Power button.

No idea what sns is.

Yes, but it depends on kernel too, as those splashes can be modded, I know BMS and Shift use custom splashes in that place, others don't

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
new d2tmo build 1/21/2015 is up, try at your own risk lol :p

I see more new commits in LS github, but those I will get merged tomorrow morning.

Also, today I refreshed all other popular d2 variants (d2att, d2spr, d2bst, d2vzw, d2usc), so check the downloads for new versions. OP updated.

Thanks for kind words! Appreciated :)

The rumor is that Google will be releasing major patch to Lollipop in February, idk if that will be 5.0.3 or 5.1 all together, but they want to fix they mistakes, the biggest one being the memory leak issue, others related to silent mode weirdness and some other stuff. Other than that I love Lollipop, because it's way faster for me than Kitkat ever was (and LP seems much less buggy too) ... probably new gapps will come with that too.

Thanks and enjoy! :)

Keep me posted on this on G+ as you hear more. I really don't know why they deprecated d2lte in the first place. Makes building so much easier and opens up ROMs to so many more users. I would love to start building Cyanide as just d2lte. It didn't make any sense to deprecate and close to quadruple the work developing for multiple variants of the same device.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvandyck:
Hi,

This might seem strange but I would like to configure my Z1 in such a way that Google knows at least as possible about my life. If possible, I would like to use only Gmail and nothing else from Google.

Recently, I activated sync for the first time because I wanted the state of mails to be the same on my phone as my computer which came with a number of unwanted side-effects:

- I got an error message that the number of contacts to be deleted was too large. I immediately said cancel as I did not want to delete contacts. Moreover, I do not want that my phone contacts were copied into my Google contacts. I see no reason why I would store phone numbers in my Google contacts, I only want to use Google for email. Clearly, it was too late: all the phone numbers are now also stored in Google contacts -- information I did not want to share with google.

- my complete calendar was copied in Google Calendar. When I started using the Z1, I deliberately choose the standard Calendar from the Z1 as I do not want that Google stores information about my calendar and find it very, very uncomfartable that my personal Calendar is now data stored on a Google server.

Is it possible to get rid of Google Calendar without losing Gmail?

Is it possible to limit sync only to mail itself?

I would appreciate any advice on how I can maximize my privacy while keeping my phone "smart".

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spudata:
Just open your Google account in the settings menu, under the sync options uncheck everything but Gmail. That should stop sync of your contacts, people, calendar, chrome etc...
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Didgesteve:
Leave sync off, it only eats battery.

Just remember to press 'refresh' when you open the Gmail app. You won't get status bar messages about your Gmail, but if you check manually couple of times a day, then you've saved yourself all the syncronisation agro.

I had the same problem with contacts and I didn't want all my email contacts ending up listed as contacts in my phone, as it makes sending group texts impossible, it kept defaulting to sending MMS instaed, because some contacts were email addresses. Grr.

So I made up another gmail account, that's blank, has no contacts. Then I log into the phone with that and let the phone set up with that account. Once it's done all the syncronising I added my real gmail account, but set to not syncornise. I just manaully sync when I open the Gmail app, saves all the problems.

There are a couple of apps that can help.

Afwall+, which is a good firewall. You can set which apps use your wifi and which apps use mobile data, or just stop apps dialing out altogether.

There's a mention above of Privacy Gaurd, but it's very basic and I'm not sure it works with 'system' apps like google. I would recomend DonkeyGuard, it's by far the easiest and most comprehensive way of regulating what apps see what information on your phone. To make it work you will need to have a rooted phone, as well as having Xposed installed. But if you are serious about your privacy, then you know that it's worth the effort.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F308:
To have Google unaware about your phone contacts and calendar you need create contacts/events as device contact/event, not bound to Google account. There is setting for that, make it default.

First time I wanted separate google from my personal data I deleted google account on my phone as no other method worked, I lost all my contacts as by default they were assigned to google.

I was better than that. I had backup, restored contacts as device ones.

From this moment I have my info private (hope so, possibly information leaks in background but it is over anyone's head, some things are deeply hardcoded in OS then you can do nothing).

Sometimes you HAVE to give Google some information.

There is Xposed module which provides FALSE info in such cases. Sufficient solution for me.

Unfortunately it doesn't work for native applications (not sure about it).
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvandyck:
Thanks! I unchecked everything except Weather and news, GMail and Google Drive (I backup some important but not very private docs there).
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvandyck:
Thanks! I see indeed that when I create an event, I can choose the account to which the event is assigned. Google is standard for the moment.

Where can I set device account as the standard for contacts/events? I do not see such an option in the settings of Calendar or Contacts...

Also, it appears that I cannot change the account to which an already created event is assigned to.

Is it possible to move all created events in the Calendar from Google account to device account?

My phone runs on the 14.4.A.157 official build -- it is not rooted and I prefer to stay on the official Sony release channel.
