I'm not really sure, but videos seem fixed? I don't see the artifacts that appeared in previous roms. Also, I tried EIS and it worked perfectly, don't remember if it worked before.

I wasn't able to activate Wi-Fi this morning, had to reboot.

Otherwise great job !

i think you can, but its better to do a clean install to avoid any app incompatibility between apps. i was on RC1 but i wipped everything before i flashed RC2, this way you get more accurate idea of the problems if any.

Unfortunately there is no change in camera department.... HdR is broken and the video is still massively over sharpened the pictures are excellent thought.. Don't get me wrong SD&DT i love the features that you implemented they are insanely good and necessary, but maybe you have to pay more attention to the fundamental things like the camera. Thank you much for your great work! Cheers!

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] superdragonpt:
HDR is just one massive "hack implementation" .

Its like interpolating, makes no sence in the first place.

What good is to add an (i.e: ) 30 or 50MPX option to the main camera

( native=13MPX)?

Only if you like huge pixelated pics . .

That's why several options are only available on the native camera app.

Concerning camera (rear) there was more a bit more of tuning on the pictures.

( in low light specially, and bug fixs related to scene modes)

Also some of MTK "workarounds" for lp camera where removed and fixed.

The lp drivers (stock cam) where on beta status "at best" , looks unfinished and where full of workarounds, even worse ... the new MT6753 haves the same "unfinished" cam drivers, nothing new there .

I'm happy with the results on camera ,even that some users said the pictures "are too much vivid and/or overexposure"

In a general view its a bit better now, the huge difference in our own drivers , is more noticeable on the front camera

I know the slow-motion is broken , its an " consequence " of the "workarounds" cleaning ( another MTK feature, that is only good to brake other camera parameters)

Cheers ;)

Is there a fix for that..... From time to time the pictures in the gallery just missing (black screen) Quickpic doesn't fix it. (just reboot) did dirty flash tho...

Hi there,

Nice ROM, keep up the good work.:good:

Just one thing that bothers me, don't know if the proximity sensor is not working correctly, sometimes during a call, I open other apps or even make new calls with my ear.....

Started doing this with RC1. Now on RC2.

Am I the only one with this issue??
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] b257762:
No it is still broken, last working was in 4.4!

With 5.1 from "alpha" till RC2 you only habe ~2 steps, light and dark.

Absolutely no intermediate steps with 5.1!

somewhat similar albeit opposite experience:

- installed RC2 semi-clean (wiped /cache, /system and dalvik-cache)

- cleared ookla speed test cache and data

- ran 4G speedtest fine

- then wifi speedtest reboots phone

of course, this may also be a problem with ookla speed test app.

Need to look into it.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] PrinceThumper:
Hi, I've been following this thread for a while and would like to extend my appreciation to the developers.

I have two slightly off topic questions.

1, A while ago I dropped my S3 advanced and cracked the screen. I ordered a new one from Aliexpress and fitted it myself. I didn't do the best job and for whatever reason my volume buttons no longer work. I have been using button saviour to control volume ever since. Is it possible to replace the volume controls?

2, When I pickup and drag apps on the home screen I can't drag them from above the second row to below, it's like there is a disconnect across the width of the screen, vice versa, I can't drag apps from below the second row to above. Has anybody else experienced this? I haven't tried going back to kitkat yet but I have done clean installs of lolipop and the problem remains.

Whats wrong?
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] superdragonpt:
Its not ego, its a fact.

There's a lot of ambient values now, if your phone is broken ( doesn't display it),then:

- its faulty

-a bad flash

- haves a different sensor that I'm not aware of

Nice people here
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] apogen:
Any suggestion [MENTION=5238428]superdragonpt[/MENTION]?

Factory reset wipes cache, dalvik and data... Maybe needs also system wiping?
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] genesisalgor:
I did a system, data, cache and davilk wipe before flashing RC2.

i did it and when i press reboot after flashing there is a warning in twrp that "no OS is installed". i forced reboot and bootloop again :(

My S3A was stucking after the Jiayu.de logo during boot with a black screen after flashing with no errors in TRWP. Several reboots changed nothing. I then downloaded the RC2 again, maybe bad transfer on first time and made sure, to copy it to internal storage.

Yeah, been like that on LP, lets see if we can fix this

Should only need dalvik, cache, no need for system.(but no harm in wiping system)

Of course, you'll need to be on LP layout already

After I flashed RC2 I did a dalvik and cache wipe. So thats not helping.

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] blackandblue:
First up, as has been said many times, thanks a ton for the hard work, and the again free release. It's a great early Weihnachtsgeschenk!

I've got an S3 basic, and also have the same issue with the ambient sensor, it always reports 10lux, however it does "work" as the screen goes off when im on a call and put the phone to my ear.

It was also reporting 10lux under RC1, the various TF 5.X roms, the original chinese rom, and the 4.x roms from .de and china.

Otherwise, RC2 is a massive improvement for my S3 Basic. No lagginess anymore, and the included modem in RC2 appears to have fixed my constant wifi drops under RC1. I was using the KK modem which helped, but the wifi seemed to be dropping every time the active data sim switched between 4g and 3g and vice versa. (Dont know if that was the actual cause, but it seemed to be related??)

Im also in Germany (in xberg in Berlin), with Vodafone for the voice sim, and O2/Eplus for the data. 4g/3g for the data sim is also much improved, I've got much better signal in the u8 than before and less drops to 3g ;)

EDIT: One last thing! data sim (4g) works / worked better for me if its in sim2 slot, not sim1. I couldnt get stable mobile data or wifi if I had the data sim set to sim1!

I've installed the app specifically for testing the reboot problem.

10lux is one of the new values actually

With AndroidSensor box, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=imoblife.androidsensorbox&hl=en_US

place your phone near to a light, and check the Lux values (more light = higher lux values)

IF near a light source, it always stay at 10Lux, then it might be using a new sensor, that we have no info about

Thanks for the feedback ;)

Thanks
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] blackandblue:
Haha, yeah, I tried that.

Room value is 10lux, finger over the sensor is 10lux, phone up to 60w bulb is 10lux.

I can take a picture if needed, is there a log for that though?
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] superdragonpt:
No need please ;)

Please some more info , if you dont mind:

Where did you bought it ?

Is it a Jiayu or a clone (cherry mobile flare) ?

advanced or basic model ?

Starting to think, there may be another sensor in some units ...
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] nature boy:
I think the problem is the sensor (MTK_LIGHT) doesn't update a lot if we cover the blue dots, and then we think the sensor isn't working properly. It works, it just not super sensitive to (slight) light changes.

But it's working properly.

[MENTION=1485900]blackandblue[/MENTION], go to a dark room with a flashlight. It's the only proper way to make sure. Lux should go up and screen should increase brightness.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] adilrenzu:
I had the same behaviour showing on 10lux, then i closed all the lights still showed 10lux, then i turned on my lighter and brought it closer to the sensor and the sensor worked, so my best guess is that the sensor works but the sensitivity is very low
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] superdragonpt:
i've sent to you and to blackandblue a new kernel just compiled

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] nature boy:
[MENTION=5238428]superdragonpt[/MENTION], if you need another tester, I can test the kernel right now. Although I don't think it's a big problem, just fine tuning the sensor.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] adilrenzu:
Much better than before, the sensor is much more responsive now, although it shows 10lubs but as soon as there is any change in light close to the phone the sensor shoots up,before i got upto 200 with the lighter too close, this time it crosed 500 with the lighter far than before. Good work mate.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] superdragonpt:
PMed

Then, i was right, it's using another sensor (very close to the one most of us is using ...)

Then now, your auto-brightness should be way better ;)

As the rom framework, needs the kernel driver values

Another commit to add to source...

It should auto-detect the right sensor variant in use by the phone

cheers
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] adilrenzu:
Honestly i didnt have the problem with auto brightness before but hey if something is going to get better although it was good in the first place, i say why not.

Thanks for the pm., il give it a go in the morning

Its an S3 basic (2gb) from geekvida (sorry, didnt know jiayu.de at the time :| )

I ordered it from gv end of march 2015.

On the box its marked with the sku and date of 02.03.2014 from gv, so its probably a quite early manufacture, not a later one... Happy to provide more details via pm if needed. Honestly the lux values isn't a show stopper!

I might have bought too early. I also have a very early manufacture version of the chuwi vi8, that basically doesnt exist as far as the manufacturer is concerned (serial # is below release units, [MENTION=4488810]Levered[/MENTION] has/had one too i saw)

Thanks for explaining the battery stats behaviour I was not very familiar with a working, LP batterystats now my history really keeps up, for me the reset was more annoying than the battery drop I could never measure my battery real life on LP until now.

RC2 is really really more fast and seems more stable than RC1, it is really lightning fast!

I will be testing NFC tomorrow as it was crashing for me in RC1.

About layers many thanks for the big improvements on it. Now big majority of layers work fine. I only had problems with Two of them, Peaaf and CommuteUI, both of them works aside other conolemental layers that are made for more tuning. This could be some weirdness with the apps. CommuteUI for example with it applied the Rom crash when I call Power menu, If I apply the complements with Evolve for CommuteUi the phone bootloops.

just my feedback about those two specific layers.

FWIW, just downgraded to 4.4 Chinese ROM and same behavior (did not use your custom Kernel).

Then tried Chinese 5.1 and also the same behavior. Never noticed this "issue" until now.

Back on RC2 + recent kernel. With light in room value stays at 10 lux, need to test in sunlight.

P.S.: Does everyone's light/ambient sensor values fluctuate or does it remain stable?

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] DerTeufel1980:
There's literally no difference between flashtool and recovery version.

Because of some trouble with ota app, rc2 zip just contains flashtool system.img along with flashtool boot.img.

You just could extract them from zip and flash with flashtool.

Only difference is, zip is cleaning some Google Apps files, to prevent crashes of those.
