[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Mysticales:
Couple questions. Been awhile since I needed this thread.

I am still on 2.4 right now. Never had an issue so I left it alone.

1: If I wanna go ahead and update to the 3.3.1 will I have to wipe/lose my data just to upgrade it and then reinstall all my apps via TB or will it just merge over and update the rom.

2: With 2.4 I am having an issue with connecting to Smart Switch. (Trying to transfer to my Galaxy S8) Either direct to S8 or to PC. While it KNOWS the phone is connected and is in "connecting phase" it will timeout and say failed to connect. So not sure if thats a 2.4 rom issue or something else if anyone may know? Thanks.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Daught:
Even if I run the aroma flash but dont select anything the phone stops booting. What am I missing? There has to be something obvious considering how mature this ROM is.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Phoenix09:
what ROM version?

do you have Xposed installed?

there was a version where the permissions "fixing" caused that with Xposed installed
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Daught:
Clean install of the latest ROM. 3.3.1 and aroma 2.4.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] julian26:
Do not have the fingerprint reader option enabled as I do to enable or install it?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Mysticales:
I was wondering about that fingerprint option too... Whats that about?

Also for my smart switch issue. Just "fixed" it by upgrading the to the Marshmallow version of XtreStolite. Seems it solved all the issues.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Shaox:
so NOUGAT is out oficially now, i know this rom is not longer supported but its the best rom fr s6 by far.. any good recommendations for a stable and stock nougat experience on s6?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] m3tatr0n84:
Check odexlite thread if your phone is supported.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] enzospain:
For me MM > Nougat just for xposed / Viper4Android / custom kernel :crying:
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Mysticales:
tbh, not sure any rom would be more stable with options then this one in for the S6. I stick with what works. Took me till a week ago to switch to the 6.x version of the rom from 5.x. Happy I did.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Soufiansky:
+1

Best ROM ever made for the S6.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Mysticales:
Btw maybe someone here knows. In the 5.x version, If the app noticed one didnt have a "Menu" button anymore, It would make a circle on the screen with 3 dots that would act as the menu button for options.

Now that I switched to the 6.x version. I no longer see this and I cant open the menu within an app. Anyone know where that setting may be to adjust if there is one?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Mysticales:
Anyone? Really bothersome that I have no "Menu" button on the screen now on some of these apps. So am not sure what to look for or configure.

Phone info:

Version: G920W8VLU5DQD4

Kernel: 3.10.61-11094681

Version #: NRD90M.G920W8VLU5DQD4

Each time I try to install just the bootloader, it fails. I installed TWRP and SuperSU beforehand which worked like a charm. But the bootloader just does not want to load with ODIN version 3.12.3.

Can someone help me out?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] m3tatr0n84:
I believe you don't need to flash neither the modem nor bootloader to use the ROM as long as you have the stock 6.0.1 installed.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] avidichard:
Yep! You were right. I tried following the instructions in the first post where it said to FIRST install the bootloader and modem before going on with installing the ROM. Thank you very much for your answer. You just made a VERY happy guy on earth with his cell phone cleaned up and free at last!
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Mysticales:
Guess no one has any clue what I mean about a lack of menu button access i some apps that used to use a Circle with : in times to replace the physical menu button?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Soufiansky:
Are you talking about the 3 dots for extra options ?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Mysticales:
No, was a replacement for the Menu button.

However I just learned on the 6.x version of this rom, its long press the back button to bring up the menu part of an app.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] christopherrrg:
You will find a lot of people not answering because those menus were mainly implemented into 'hamburger style' menus. (Slide out options) it happened during 6.0 when Google introduced material app design.

Good to know long press back button brings up the old though, appreciate you sharing!
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Mysticales:
Yea I have some older apps that never were updated to todays standards. (A Comic Reader, a Bluetooth to GPS App, etc)

This slide out option, whats that?

Also learned on the Galaxy S8, the long press is how to do things too.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Cuzeg Spiked:
Wow this ROM is awesome!
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] arafayrs:
Getting 2 volume notifications bars

Hi,

Im getting 2 volume bars for the notification volume (I have total of 5 now when volume bar is expanded). Both are the same if i increase one the other increase as well. I did to a clean install originally and currently do have xposed install but i haven't messed around with such volume setting.

I tried to link notification and ringtone together - that links it fine but the notification and ringtone volumes are not in sync. The notification volume always jumps back to zero when increasing ringtone.

Any advise would be appreciated.

Overall, amazing ROM!

I wanted to install this after i have installed 7.0. is it OK to roll back to a previous edition of android using TWRP?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Casper1982:
XtreStoLite in Nougat 7.0.. ?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] sofir786:
No unfortunately this rom is MM and is no longer updated by the developwr
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] dbabo:
how do i exactly upgrade from XtreStoLite 2.4 to this one ? Particularly in post 5 (https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=60390986&postcount=5) there is a link to arter97.com files. What do i do with them ?

I'm on g920F.

Thank you
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] tinko975:
i used this rom and was brilliant, battery, everything. now updated to 7.0 stock and then extralite 7.0, on N battery is terrible on my S6.. had to return to MM..

attention!

do not update to 7.0 unless you want have only 2 sot of battery.. i use average my phone, from 7am to 3 pm battery drains to 30%. on 5 pm 15%. must have powerbank or charger. with MM battery lasts to the end of the day..
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] ShaRkK45:
You need to update the modem and bootloader. In case you don't know which one to choose. I suggest you download your stock rom (latest marshmallow version for g920f) and flash it. (make sure you back up data) wipe everything you can)

Then you can flash this marshmallow awesomeness.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] dbabo:
got it to work after flashing TWRP 287 (with following reboot), then BOOT and MODEM together and, after reboot the TWRP 313 with the ROM flash.

not sure why MM is so awesome. looks the same, does the same things the same way. Regardless of my impressions about the OS, thank you goes to the MOD creator - mod is light and that's what i want.

I am currently on NNE 4.0 rom based on nougat. how to flash 5.0 from 7.0. can any1 help me please?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] RelQM:
Should I still use this ROM even though it's not being supported by the dev anymore? I like the tweaks especially the removed high volume warning message.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Phoenix09:
no, there's other's with more tweaks that aren't outdated
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] RelQM:
Oh ok. Can you please point me to one? There's Noble ROM which looks good but it seems like some bugs are still being worked out.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Mysticales:
Which one would you say is better then this one that has a good installer for options and that really improve performance on emulators, remote desktop, etc.

Ive not seen an issue on this rom but if you know of one thats even better then this. Let us know.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] sofir786:
Tbh with you if you're happy with marshmallow, this is probably hands down one of the best in terms of battery life and performance and inconjunction with a custom kernel it can be made to very performance related. It's a shame it never got updated but it's still one of the best.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Jojobojo100:
I would recommend OdexLite :) Debloated, fast, stable, updated to android N and it has tweaks that you can choose in the aroma. It's like XtreStoLite but updated ;)

http://https://www.google.se/url?sa...mlOREe6QfDkBHRG3Q&sig2=kBgQ-8gwgh_mLLVlPPFvug
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Soufiansky:
Who care if its not supported or not my friend, as long as it is super stable and fast thats what matters the most. This is by far one of the best ROMS you can find.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] RelQM:
Hmm well if it's not supported anymore, that also means no more security updates, right?

I just want to be careful especially with the recent WannaCry ransomware that hit outdated Windows PCs :)
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] kforkai:
IMO yes. Once a while I like to try other roms but in the end I still come back to this rom. You should try out other rom out there too, thus you will know the why youraelf.

The rom itself is stable so the need for dev support isnt likely.. Mostly only stuffs with regards to theme ing or tweaking etc is the only support needed I guess. If u read up the thread, you can even find stuff by the dev which he didnt add to the 1st post, Which to me is useful, example ambient display. (Comes with uninstaller) everything else u need is in this thread.*search

Good luck

Regards
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] RelQM:
What do you think about the ROM's security? Is it getting the monthly/bi-monthly security patch updates?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Markos:
Always when my phone needs te reboot (both shutdown and reboot) or when my phone is empty, it needs te recover my Whatsapp chat history. Always.. I didn't have this with my stock rom. What can be causing this and better, how can I fix this?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] kforkai:
Im running xposed, changed kernel too... U shld ask others regarding security.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] pizza_pie:
Guys , I installed wanaam exposed ( the correct one ) and also xtouchwiz. However no changes take effect ?? It is activated and I rebooted my device multiple times. I really need it for a few features. Everything else is working as it should.

EDIT : Also I noticed the mobile data isn't showing up in notifications bar either , only the 3minit battery mod is working. So the mods that change systemui don't work everything else works I guess. Also the power menu changed to some with dark background which has screen record, screenshots and flight mode in it ? What did that ? I am so confused :confused:

Ok the power menu and data went back after I disabled xtouchwiz , so it means it is incompitable with this ROM ? I am so sad because I really want to skip tracks with volume buttons .. any chance of that ever happening ?

Gravity box fixed me those 2 things but now my ringer and notifications are linked together and I can't manage them individually. And if I select to unlink them I get 2 notification bars when adjusting volume, sigh ...
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Mysticales:
Did you find emulators and high end games running better? Lets say PSP Emulation.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Soufiansky:
Believe or not there is people still using phones running Jelly bean or Kitkat, and have no security issues. "For me" those security updates are useless, i never do security updates and my phones all were good, no problem. So for me if you want a 100% stable and fast ROM, Xtrestolite is the way to go.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Jojobojo100:
I haven't played PSP Emulation so I can't say if it runs better but I have played some high end games (Blitz Brigade etc) and I think they runs really smoothly. Try for yourself and see ;)
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] AJtheAndroidNoOb:
I have a S6 SM-G920S running 6.0.1. However I cant find any file for it on post #5. I would love to root/install custom recovery for my device. Could someone help me please?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Mysticales:
Hrm ok... new issue on the 6.x version.

Moment I try to take a picture with the flash mode set to "on". Moment the led bulb turns on, the phone hard cuts off? Takes me putting it on my QI charger to get it to respond and turn on like nothing ever happened. Very odd.

Anyone seen or heard anything like this? Only happens when the flash is triggered. If I leave that off, no issue.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] manniefresh:
Hi there,

i'm on this rom for a few months now and i must say its still incredible fast and smooth. But i am curious about what ist going on with this ROM. Will there be any chance of updating it to Nougat? I have to say i'm a rookie in developing (and btw english too xD), so is there any chance to get Nougat with this incredible benefit?

Thanks a lot
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Phoenix09:

Hello, and thanks for the work.

A question:

at every startup of the terminal, I have the message "do you want to enable mobile data?"

He is saying that this has a cost.

Then, I do not understand a thing, because instead of "3 Italian" I have the carrier H3G?

Not that it disrupts their lives, but I would understand.

Audio speaker is lower than the stock rom.

You can find the boot.img in the ROM zip file.

And about the link of the newest release, it will be available when decide it. They are currently testing it.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Flamehell:
Guys do you think that is better the stock kernel or ktoonsez?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] jemeljsh:
I have the same question/issue right now. I just installed version 1.4 test version I was not sure which one to chose. Started off with ktoonsez but then reflashed to stock, since I could find any reason why is it any better, like for instance, it would be cool the custom kernel would include feature like double tap to wake and so on. Is there a point of having ktoonsez kernel if you do not use the settings app that comes with it? At default it is set the same as stock kernel or its already tuned even if you do not use its settings app?

By the way, 1.4 test version runs butter smooth :good::good: no more lags in play store, google app and other material design apps
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Johnny camaro:
1.4 test version, like always amazing smooth and ofcourse no issues!

Thanks [MENTION=693309]edgarf28[/MENTION] :thumbup:
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] -JFK-:
Stock settings of KT kernel are tweaked compare to the Stock one even if you don't use the setting app.

Check post 3 of KT kernel thread to get an explanation of Ktoonservative Governor.

I gess DT2W is useless with the home button...

But DT2S can be a bit more usefull if we are too lazy to clic on power button...!

---------- Post added at 11:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 AM ----------

Please tell me if I'm wrong.

The V1.4 will be ready soon.

Will we have to flash the ROM, then the Aroma addon and finally Alliance Framework ?

Or the Aroma addon from [MENTION=693309]edgarf28[/MENTION] will disappear?

Edit : I reply to myself.

The addon zip is a totally different thing (add functionality).

And Alliance Framework is to deeply theme the ROM...
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Flamehell:
So guys....stock settings of this custom kernel are better than the stock kernel?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] RyaEngel:
hello @ edgarf28

there is the possibility to integrate the VIP mode for Device G920F (vip contact) which is on the right or left home? it would be wonderful ... as the S6 Edge ? thanks for you work ?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] -JFK-:
Better... Worst...

All depend of your use.

I personally like to flash a custom kernel to underclock and undervolt.

If you like to bench, it's the best way to increase score by overclock and set up the right governor.

If you don't want to learn about kernel, keep the stock one or flash a custom one without touching any settings.

But if you are curious and like to learn about the way how android work, and feel the skills of our XDA devs, go ahead and discover the custom kernel capabilities!

I have not reply to your question...:

For me a (good) custom kernel is always better than the stock one.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] jemeljsh:
Alliance Framework now is included in the Aroma add on package, where you can chose between (1) Alliance Framework dark themed, (2) Alliance Framework stock themed, (3) No

Alliance Framework. So you will have rom and add on package to install.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] -JFK-:
Thanks for the info.

Can i flash this rom if i have nougat bootloader? (i flashed GOLD EAGLE 7.0 rom over stock nougat rom, not long time ago)

[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Soufiansky:
Downgrading to MM is easy,you just need to flash a 5XX Marshmallow firmware and wipe internal storage after the flashing is done.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] SXS4:
I never try, because many said that downgrade will lose baseband, bootloader, imei etc...
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Soufiansky:
It wont,people who screw their phones dont follow the instructions thats all. To downgrade to MM you need a 5XX marshmallow firmware,basically use the latest one and wipe data ( including internal ) after the flash is done.
