Guys could someone explain to me please how storage swap exactly works on german 5.1.1 ROM? For example in file manager I can see sdcard0 and sdcard1. Most of the folders moved on sdcard0 and on sdcard1 I can see only Android and Odd folder. What is the logic behind this? Thanks! :)

With jiayu.de beta v3 for me battery drain is still present!! Is it possibile? Or I done mistakes installing it?

Every app data is stored in your external SDcard which is read as main storage. Only files that should be in internal or data partition are stored in the internal.

I use 5.1.1 rom all three versions, and it is great.

I found one bug and it is related to bluetooth music streaming. Music start ok, and after few seconds it becomes scrambled. I tested with 2 different headsets, and both with same problem.

Guys can you please look at that?

Try disabling ambient display feature it could drain a little more battery if you not use it disable.

[MENTION=5238428]superdragonpt[/MENTION] [MENTION=4196889]DerTeufel1980[/MENTION]

I have a suggestion for this feature!

Maybe you guys can add a optional toogle to Ambient Display, that when enabled, set the brightness of screen to minimal value, or maybe if possible by a value set by user. could be cool! Anyway great work! Waiting more and more of the Dragondevil partnership haha

Didn't come on this forum for like 3 days as I was quite happy with extreme ROM except for the annoying battery bug. Well, came today, I see 300 posts lol

[MENTION=5275786]genesisalgor[/MENTION], some time back, you guys were saying that extra antutu score is just fake(49k score :P ). Actually, I want it for bragging rights.

Well, seems like 5.1.1 really did solve the battery bug, and is giving some impressive battery life.

Even I use separate batteries, but the batteries I bought are faulty. Or it maybe the ROM not working with the battery. But lemme try it on 5.1.1 beta 3

Damn you mega, downloading the ROM at 60 to 100KB/s :|

Well, as long as all apps are stored in /data of my internal storage while all app data is stored in SD card, I'm more than happy.

[MENTION=5238428]superdragonpt[/MENTION], on LL Beta 3(5.1 ROM), the voice on loudspeaker and handset had less base and more treble. On extreme ROM, I can feel more base/bass in the sound which made it much more clearer. But yours was louder though.

Hoping 5.1.1 beta 3 gives me 8 hours SOT :v
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Andy31233:
Not drain, sorry.. Drop! When arrives at 20% it goes down in few seconda!
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] superdragonpt:
Yeap

We increased Sound on Calls, and System sounds/notifications

I felt like, the stock incall sound was very Low, now it's better. ;)

Glad to see that, at least 3 /4 persons confirmed no more battery bug ;)

If it works, even on just 50% of people, it's still very nice

I really don't like merging "sound engines" on a rom build (lame).....

You want more bass: You can flash Dolby Surround or any other 1000 sound engines available here on xda ... :)

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] wangdak:
Ok, thanks. :) So how come that when I was moving from 5.1.1 beta1 to beta3 using flash tool I had to install all apps again? Can you safely move installed apps from sd card to internal memory and back? Thanks. :)

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] superdragonpt:
Moving from one 5.1.1 rom Version "x" to version "y", if you only flash boot.img (kernel), and system.img(rom)

, you will keep your data(apps).

Of course, always make a backup... And if things get messy, only then, wipe cache/dalvik

But i have to say: I hate dirty flashs, weird things can happen

I always do Full Clean installs

Been using today the latest beta3 5.1.1rom coming from newui LP ROM. What I see is that battery bug is fixed camera seems better and front camera is better but still has a pink tint. Definitely think that is more fluid and I like it a lot.Battery is a little bit better too!

But I think that screen colours are more washed and inaccurate no matter how much I tried to fix it with the implemented miravision. Does anyone else see that?

P.S Although I was coming from a LP ROM I decided to do a clean flash of the ROM just to be sure....
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] :
Guys. I'd really like to try the 5.1.1 v3 ROM, but all this talk of SD card data location switching has me a little confused!

I know I'm in a minority, but as I don't use an huge amount of apps, I actually prefer to have the apps I do have installed located on the Internal storage, keeping my External 32GB SD card free for other data.

From what I gather, the 5.1.1 v3 ROM switches the default storage layout for installed apps to be located on the External SD - if I install this ROM, how can I set the default app install location to be the Internal value again (same as stock, TF ROMs etc.)?

Will this then change the default location of new photos as well, as using a stock ROM, I used to set the default location to the External SD in the 'Storage' options, which when set, installed apps to the Internal storage, but photos went to the External storage.

Hope that makes sense! :)

Thanks!

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] kenturky:
I haven't downloaded the ROM as yet. It is still downloading. So about the battery bug, judging from the posts, I see the battery bug is fixed.

You could do a little tweaking. In framework.res apk or whatever is the right name, you could change the values from 3000 to 3200 so that it won't stay at 1% for another 30 to 40 minutes instead it will be on 1% for like 2 to 5 mins.

Hiyas

Have there been made fakes of this phone, and if true, how can you spot a fake?

Reason I ask is that my S3's cameras are bad, nowhere near the quality you'd expect from a 13mpx cam and front face camera is a useless joke.

Also, both Antutu and CPU-Z reports that it's cpu max frequency is 1.69Ghz but it shows live stats up to 1.85Ghz. confused...

Back on Jiayu.de 5.1.1 beta 3 now.

I really like the features of this rom, and the phone feels super fast with it. You guys really did a great job.

The one thing that still bugs me is the extSD default thing.

I may be confused because on my previous android phone there was a similar switch, which simply changed whether /storage/sdcard0 or /storage/sdcard1 is mapped to the internal or external SD.

Could someone please explain what this switch exactly does?

Also what should I do if I only use a small extSD card i.e. only 512 MB and still want to install a lot of apps. I dont want to batch move apps to SD card. Thats what I used to do on my previous entry level android phone with small partitions and that was really annoying.

What if I don't use an external SD card at all? And from time to time I insert one for a short amount of time. This way /storage/sdcard0 which used to store my application data on the internal SD is this time mapped to the newly inserted external SD card which does not contain any app data?

Please help me out here. And give advice on how to use this feature if I don't have a big SD card.

Many thanks. And respect to the developers. You make great software and answer annoying questions like this. :p

Has anyone tried Android Pay with either the 5.1.1 from Jiayu.de or the semi-official 9-17 5.1 update? It's not working after unroot on the Armageddon 5.1 rom. Pretty annoyed that they're putting additional roadblocks in the way of me throwing money away.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Dior DNA:
I read about this extSD default in S3 custom ROMs. There seem to be pro and con arguments. So what about making it configurable by y/n knob? Can someone perhaps repeat what it is about? Does it mean software is led to believe the internal storage is the external one (and vice versa perhaps)? If so can one use any good (say ext4 or f2fs) filesystem on extSD? Is this 'feature' unconditionally present in jiayu de 5.1.1?

---------- Post added at 00:21 ---------- Previous post was at 00:08 ----------

OK but I prefer my app data on a decent filesystem (not some fat32 or extfat one). Is that possible?

Its going to be fat32, phone won't support ntfs
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Dior DNA:
Or perhaps exfat. In any case I would not trust all my data on any filesystem except ext{2,3,4} or f2fs.

Also, (default) fat32, exfat and even ntfs have limitations. After all: this is linux. So with external ext{2,3,4} or f2fs support I could agree. But then, why not make the internal/external choice configurable?

Guys, a friend of mine is loosing to buy S3 advanced, like mine ??. Can you recommend from which store / seller to send the order. Spemall, AliExpress, or somewhere else. Thank you in advance. I will place the order tomorrow.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] kenturky:
It wouldn't be worth purchasing this device as jiayu is releasing a new device soon. So your friend will use the jiayu s3 for another 3 months, and he will be tempted to buy the jiayu s4 or whatever is the name of the new device. And it's said that that device will be the first Chinese phone to release with android Marshmallow.

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] genesisalgor:
Well... the externalSd as internal isn't is a bug, it's a feature. Maybe in the future they add a option to change between internal and External for users taste, and hopefully never remove this features.

For me is perfect, never cry out storage, and can make clean installations/updates by SPflashtool without losing my data.

By the way I was using a 32GB phone and this feature make me want a 64GB.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Dior DNA:
[MENTION=5275786]genesisalgor[/MENTION] : much respect and thanks for all your great info here!

Trying to preserve data crossing flash is up to you regardless if it is stored internal or external, but, corrupt data is another story and I have, undoubtedly, encountered many more corrupt fat32 than, say, ext4 filesystems in my life (not speaking about known fat32 limitations). Anyone's expectations and mileages my vary of course. Perhaps I am a linux addict. But, I repeat, the real point is: make it optional to store external by default. Then none of the geek discussions apply,

Also: there are many standard ways to move/link files from internal to external. I prefer freedom of choice to choose how.

I got this phone on 17th June. Now its been 3 months, and I was frustrated due to the battery drainage thinking I'm ready to throw this phone out, but I decided to hold on to it even longer. Now I'm more than satisfied with the phone.

The main reason why I got the phone was the proccy... Mt6752 is a badass proccy. Helio x10 is not that good because of that stupid powervr GPU they squashed inside it. :3

They could have put a Mali t880(reminds me of the terminator), but instead, its nope. They didn't want us to have all the goodness in a chipset. :/

I think the reason why mediatek made the 6753 is because they underestimated the power of the 6752. So they made quite a large number of phones with the 6753, and gave it great developer support leaving out the 6752 phones to rot in the dust ._.

Not sure what painful experience you want to express. There are many people who bought and received straight away, from anywhere to anywhere at various prices (see dedicated threads). Perhaps you really had bad luck though. In which case I feel sorry for you and truly apoligize.

Dear [MENTION=5238428]superdragonpt[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4196889]DerTeufel1980[/MENTION], one of the users from 4pda asking you about adding more brightness levels to your ROM.

In KK there are light levels: 10, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900, 1000lux.

In LP they are only 10, 200, 500, 1000lux.

There are light levels and brightness values in framework-res\res\values\arrays.xml in section config_autoBrightnessLevels & config_autoBrightnessLcdBacklightValues. In LP after 10lux light sensor check only 200 and 500lux, its no good. So its useless to edit framework-res - it simply don't works. You can't change autobrightness smooth.

I think all routine is in kernel, isn't it? Can you make light levels like in KK?
