5.1 can be flashed on TMO as well, it is unified. Not really sure is there a benefit of having TMO-only build.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] cmac296:
Very true. I've been using the old 5.0.2 build until Xposed/Amplify is fully sorted on 5.1.1 and then I'll make the switch.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] moSess:
Just exercising caution.... Let me see, said the blind man....
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] orbital_71:
encho can u add fast charge and call recorder on this rom?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
This ROM's main goal is to collect all the features that other ROMs have. So if there is other ROM with working call recording, point me to it. Fast charging is kernel feature AFAIK.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] gq3856:
I believe aicp ROM has call recording

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] btvolta:
Flashed today and running nice. The only issue I have is that I can't get the touch sounds to activate and the screen off/on is very low. I changed selinux to permissive and viper works for Pandora, but doesn't have any effect on built in sounds like I'm used to.

HEHE !! YOU got me this time (but I got you with FLEX !!)

(I thought you went suspiciously quiet for the last cupple of days but I was anticipatind PAC or EOS <not a new OS -haha->)

I only realised some minutes ago while I was re-testing previous Bliss version with new x-posed framework since I had noticed a few glitches - downloading latest version now to try (I don't promise it will be before trying flex though ) and will get back to you with 1st impressions (and rating of course)

LOVE the "twisted arm version" - I'll thank these guys as well !

MANY - MANY THANKS ONCE AGAIN (BOSS ! :p)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] inthedark22:
Nice version 3.3 just one small problem; when it asks what program tot use to open a program or picture the letters are white on white? Luckely the pictures of the programs are there as well so no biggie. Thanks for the gold work.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Check the changelog, theme is still work in progress.

Don't try it, it is broken [emoji12]
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] costasparisis:
Thanks for the warning (and the ROMs of course) but it's too late !!

I've already tried it !

(my cat and dog are now dead and rotting and and so are three or four of my patients and I've lost five jobs cause my alarm didn't go off and it's all because of you and your ROM !!)

IT'S ACTUALLY A M A Z I N G !!!

Though it's not light on code @ circa 260Mb (to flash), there's only 45 apps installed which goes down to an amazing 38 !! after debloating with the script.

Not to mention the A W E S O M E boot animation graphics that make me want to reboot just to watch.

Lantern is also more than interesting. I just wish there was option to "Pick shuffle folder" in external sd too rather than just in internal memory. (I've gone off the latest, otherways much improved, AOSP player since it's impossible to use the 3dot menu next to an artist because the scroll bar gets activated (this is obviously an AOSP thing <or my fingers are just too fat or, more than likely, both ! > - I don't know if you could- / would want to- do something about it in your ROMs).

Of course, as you say, launching, swapping between and quitting apps as well as accessing settings is all done in slow motion (and with the red rectangle around the screen flashing) and so is databases access but once inside an app which doesn't read or write much it all works nice and fast (ie surfing with Firefox is quick and snappy and so is downloading and saving).

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think I can smell some potential here.

Anyway -enough with my off-posting (again). Will be flashing "twisted arm edition" 3.3 in a sec since I'm under the impression (and want to confirm) that Bliss 3.2, in spite of the large size and number of options/apps, is probably as fast - if not faster - than (the really fast ones) Slim and PA (for some reason my feeling was that Broken of May 11 -that is just before the additions of APNs etc- was not as snappy as before but at the time x-posed framework was still a mess and I can't remember if I noticed it before or after, therefore I wanted to go back and check this too - but some people keep distracting us all the time by producing more and more new ROMs).

By the way, if, say, we call Slim -or PA (or maybe even Flex in the future)- "the mother of all ROMs" due to their basic structure and simplicity, what should we call Bliss then ? "The Daughter (of all ROMs)" ??

Many-many thanks once again!

All the best!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Got you again, I re-uploaded it and it is fine now. I also noticed slowdown in latest pa and broken, I thought I was imagining things. Probably need a doctor for head checkup anyway. [emoji16]
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] costasparisis:
I know !

I noticed the timestamp had changed (and you'd gone too quiet for a while) but then I thought I was imagining things - doctor needs a doctor too -hehe

Maybe someday I'll post a (true) story about imagining things -maybe someday...

Anyway 'fraid Bliss will have to wait a bit - catch up later

Many thanks!!

aweeeesome !!!!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] freaz27:
thank you so much!

will try tonight :D
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] costasparisis:
WOW !!

Not sure about broken, this one D E F I N I T E L Y feels smooth and fast.

Together with the lovely graphics (down to the tiny detail ie the little thunder in the charging battery icon being transparent) and Lantern it has a very distinct personality.

Apps number (during cache rebuild on boot) after debloating is now 63 (no wonder why the previous one was broken)

Man ! I'm telling you this is getting serious. (it's 04:30 AM)

We should start a new thread: "THE FLASHACHOLICS ANONYMI" (You 'll be the one with the distillery :laugh:)

Will get back with more detail - hopefully including bliss and having looked into the situation with broken and PA.

Many-many thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
So, probably worth its own thread. [emoji41]

maybe call it: #the distiller's edition# ?

[MENTION=2734070]encho[/MENTION] Can you please tell us the optimal kernel settings for normal usage? Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
It is setup for normal usage by default.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] costasparisis:
Dear encho,

Just grabbing the opportunity to become a little bit wiser :)

What is your opinion and personal preference on I/O read ahead value setting (both for internal NAND and external sd) ? Do you think it makes any difference at all ?

I notice in your (and most devs') kernels, default value it's set to 128k and when "tweaked for speed" to 256k , on the other hand most tweakable kernels allow values of up to 4096k and sometimes even 8192k.

I came across an article where the author was stating that the "low" value settings were actually based on testing of obsolete technology NAND and nowadays things are very different. He had actually benchmarked extensively and found that I/O read/write speeds were improving with settings of up to 3072 and then gradually degrading.

I usually set them to 2048 or 3076 myself depending on the mood I wake up in, that particular morning and cannot say I've noticed any difference.

Is there an evidence based or "feeling based" answer or is the whole isuue something like the f2fs v/s ext4 thing ?

Many thanks for everything!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Good question, and I think you already answered it. [emoji6] You can use apps such as ROM toolbox to perform a benchmark on your card using different cache values. In my tests difference is really negligible, with probably 1024 having a small edge (but that's again within 2-3%). So I do think that with latest technology cache issue is not as important as it used to be. As for the external card, again it would require testing with cards of different brands, speeds, sizes, etc. That being said, I used to set the cache to 2048-4096, not anymore, sizes 512-1024 seem to do more than fine.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] efgeni:
[MENTION=2734070]encho[/MENTION] I have a problem with video recording audio crackling when environment is too loudy (night club or loud music at home).

Here is an example https://www.dropbox.com/s/ltgnd7f9uiy33jc/evgeninikolov_2015-05-14_23-08-32.mp4?dl=0

I think it's some kind of distortion.

I am fully stock clean install.

I think is something kernel or ROM related.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] scoobyjenkins:
I have this on any aosp type rom, would love to know how to resolve it. But I remember a time when audio recorded on video was very very quiet and in mono, some clever people resolved that!

Tapatalked that shiznit.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Does it happen on any other app? Like games, etc.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] costasparisis:
Cheers encho. Another "million dollar question" re: Kernels:

Why USB Mass Storage mode doesn't work, though the option is clearly there from the appearance of LP, since MTP REALLY SUCKS !!??

(please read this if u're patient enough HAHA - THIS IS REALLY LONG POST http://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/?id=8195#featureRequests)

And a Zillion dollar question: Why Don't people request it ??

Many thanks & all the best !!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] efgeni:
No, it happen only when I capture a video with Snapchat, stock camera, Messenger and every video recording app and only when is too loud.

Normal audio output from games or other videos not captured by me like (youtube, snapchat users, facebook videos) are fine.

Something is wrong with input sound, I believe.

I have looked deeper in the problem. I found out that mixer_paths.xml and audio.primary.msm8974.so files are related with input sound, but idk what exactly is and how to change and test it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Good find, I will try to investigate. Does this happen on other kernels as well?

That's the route Google is taking and everyone follows, so I'm afraid there's nothing that can be done. It is related to fact that none of their devices supports external SD. Now with Samsung going that same route, it is even less possible. USB otg works however.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] efgeni:
Yes, I flashed temasek kernel to test but the problem is still there.

Now, I see that arter97 kernel has some libs in .zip package and files like (mixer_paths.xml / audio.primary.msm8974.so).

You can take a look at this files. :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] egandt:
Flashed over 3.2 Official without issue and gave the arter97 5.3.2 kernel a spin also without issues. Only thing that is not working for me so far is the AppBar. Very glad to have gesture based locking back.

Thanks,

ERIC
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
... So does that mean that arter kernel is solving the issues for you?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] efgeni:
Not exactly, i'm afraid of flashing it, because last time it mess the whole rom.

I'm not sure how it will behaves with new version 3.3 but maybe I would give it a try to test.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Well, you'll have to do it if you want me to have it fixed. I don't have noisy environment to test. [emoji12]
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Update - this is from the Bliss team:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=60841099
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] efgeni:
After test with arter97 kernel. Sound is quite better but it is somehow more muffled. Crackling is less but it's still there.

Also arter97 kernel break camera when switching front/rear you have to wait 4-5 secs to swap between them so I go back to stock kernel.

Before flashing arter97 kernel I made NANDROID backup. I restored it to restore default bliss kernel then change only mixer_paths.xml and audio.primary.msm8974.so files from after97 kernel .zip and push them with right permissions to system manually. Now the sound is quite better but crackling still exist even in small sizes(I don't know the right verb, sorry).

From this test I believe this problem is caused by this 2 files (or maybe not only this 2). Something in input values is wrong I think.

If you have time to investigate and need some more info I can help. :)

P. S. I would add video later with new files.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] thinhletien:
good rom so far. Can be better ì you add OMNI switch feature to your rom.

Battery's life not too long that i expected. Only around 4-5h when doing light tasks (web browser, fb, instagram...) (TW base rom i got around 7h when doing same thing)

Maybe because of kernel? my device is N900W8. Any recommend for me about the stable kernel with good battery life?

So far your rom is very stable and smooth. 8/10

?

Thank you for ur hard work.

Sent from my SM-N900W8
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
I have tried building another rom including the files that you mentioned from arter's kernel and I can say so far so good - no audio issues presently. I will do the changes for future bliss build as well, just waiting for them to finish the re-basing.

My name is Kevin and Im a flashoholic...

Its been 19 hours since my last flash, and Im already feelin the itch...

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Ooo_Pepi:
With v3.3 I NO get random reboots, good work encho, thank you.

Can you upload your kernel ?

Thank you.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Lol, you noticed the title. So there you have it: Bliss 3.4 is up!

A LOT of upstream changes, team had to rebase and clean the code.

Flash at your own risk. :silly: Warning: causes drowsiness because of the starring at the screen.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] HammerHead69:
What's changed as far as tweaks/features Also can we dirty flash or need to start fresh?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] SirRhor:
I get a constant System UI FC when I disable hardware buttons light and enable virtual nav buttons.

I cannot get a logcat because I cannot enter into the system itself.

I'm using the latest version, on a T-Mo Note.

Thank you for your work.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Apparently that's known issue, the fix is coming soon.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] nighthawk626:
I haven't been able to receive any SMS since I clean flashed 3.4
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] costasparisis:
... AND Bliss ??, AND Broken ??? !!!. I'm gonna be flash - test, flash -test, flash -test... all night.

Stuff broken bones - broken ROMs are way more exciting !! (not fair on poor boneys though - they can also be extremely exciting when really badly broken - sometimes even more exciting than badly broken ROMs - current bones' problem is they are all fixed at present)

Anyway I'm calling in sick tomorrow and make a long weekend (next Monday is bank holiday in Greece) XXLong weekend (only joking ;) )

Cheers encho !

Just flash HLTE. I am on T-Mobile, sn-900t and running great!

Edit: The same issue I've had with themes on other roms just happened. The theme breaks settings, then I lose the theme all together, and when I reapply it, I lose the notification panel theme.

I'm coming for touchwiz lollipop and I failed as I tried to flash it. Is there steps I must take if I"m coming from touchwiz lollipop to aosp?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Uploading tmo specific version, give it 30 mins or so. I can not test it as I don't have a device.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] mattdiehl83:
I found a tmo file in the download site. However it failed in twrp as a corrupt file.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
It was not fully uploaded, it should be 254mb.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] asc1977:
Thanks for that great rom. I love it.

It is possible to integrate playstore in the rom. After dirtyflash i loose all my google accounts because i forgott to flash gapps. If you can it is great
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Same here, seems cm theme engine is not fully ready for prime time. Restoring to default theme fixes the fcs, but white hurts after getting used to the dark... [emoji41]

It shouldn't happen, there is a script which should restore the gapps. I will have a look. It can not be integrated unfortunately due to legal issues.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] kstephens98:
HLTESPR version please? ?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Jose Reyes:
I asked the same question and was told.. Yes, to use HLTE version.... I haven't tried it though....
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] mattdiehl83:
I for the life of me cant figure this out.....i redownloaded the tmo file via the provided link and now it flashes....but loops on the bliss lolli screen.....i want this rom!!!!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ramping:
Thanks for the ROM, looks great.

I´d like to know if all these features are already working.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] MyNarwhalBacon:
They all are. The only bugs I could find have to do with CM12 the engine. That's because its brand new, and still being worked on.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Raphi86:
Very nice rom... Nice battery and so much features :) my new daily driver

Thank you and keep the work on :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] BossNexusS:
I can't get viper4android to work.. I installed the drivers and then reboot the phone and when I go to play a song it doesn't work. So I open the viper4android app and the music pauses for a second and then viper4android asks me to install the driver again.. And this happens every time. Anyone get this working? Or figure out how to?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
This whole deunification business caused lot of issues. I have 2 options basically: I can separately build n900t and n900p or I can add those codes to the script so you guys can flash same build as everybody else. Problem with first option is I can't test it myself. Problem with second is that you might lose something device specific, like nfc for tmo. You decide. [emoji41]

Edit: My next build (later today) will have N900T/hltetmo and N900P/hltespr in allowed list, so it is up to you to flash it. If someone can shed some light what would be tmo/sprint specific piece of hardware that wouldn't work? I know about NFC on tmo, but is there anything else?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] mattdiehl83:
OK so after all my issues it seems my friend.....sorry I can't remember your name sir......was spot on.... Flashing to Philz Touch Recovery for the purpose of flashing this beautiful ROM worked flawlessly. Same steps. Wipe to install new ROM. Wipe cache and dalvik. Flash necessary files and perfecto......I'm in bliss. :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] kpirnie:
Volte on tmo dont work either ;)

Just make sure to update yur op with the need for a kernel on these other devices too bud. Otherwise you'll get a ****storm of "It doesnt work" :D

---------- Post added at 10:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:18 AM ----------

ive seen this in all (including my own) lollipop forums that Viper doesnt work.

my guess would be is that it like alot of other nice apps (xposed) arent updated to utilize the art framework yet.

my suggestion... have patience
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
Thanks! I'll probably just keep building tmo-specific one occasionally. Do you know if there's such an issue for spr as well?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] kpirnie:
Not sure. Dont have a spr one ;)

One of the biggest flash issues ive found is the mounting of persdata in updater-script too... i know its not here in this rom... but other n9005 (mostly tw based) have it

us folks on the n900t are pretty dang special... i really havent found a rom that i could not flash when making the appropriate updates, kernel, etc :D

anyways... thanks bud
