Same thing happening with me

hey , its really great you put the screenshot here as now i know that its not just me who is getting this error . the exact same thing is happening with my phone when m trying to flash rom .. any rom not even omtirom . only stock is possible through odin ! i hope the guys with knowledge in this stuff can help us out ! :good::good::fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Original Android Developmen] noonedeadpunk:
[mention=hastalafiesta] So I've understood what he is talking about as I experienced the same today. Both times when my battery was low and phone adviced we to enable power saving mode. It's enabling/disabling doesn't helped as expected - only reboot.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Original Android Developmen] gonxsster:
Do you format both memories before flashing the ROM??? That's why it can't found the zip file from your ROM and gapps. I think that happen.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Original Android Developmen] Sammael1989:
About that color and brightness problem - your advice (turning LiveDisplay off) worked for me so far. It didn't happen a single time but I haven't let the battery drop so low as you did so I'm not sure if it would happen then.

But my second problem with red lines remains and happens quite often, not only when pressing buttons and touching screen but it's connected to changing of displayed windows. Such as going through Settings or it happens multiple times in a few seconds when opening Play Store and it's loading its first page.

It lowers great experience with this amazing piece of work that was done for our old good Janice. Hope someone will figure out what could be done about it in some time...

Guide to install the rom Lollipop successfully!

I managed to install the rom the first time with no problem, but returned to the Stock Rom JB because of the problem with so-called ...

After finding out that there was already a fix for this, I tried to install the rom again but to no avail!

I bring here a tutorial on how to install the Rom without any problem!

Home:

When it still fails to install rom, the / date was impossible to format ...

To solve this you will need the Stock Rom GingerBread 2.3.x with PIT Archive and the CSC Archive

Use the Odin to re-format the cell completely

Soon after, upgrade to the JellyBean

If your partition was not destroyed just ignore the steps above!

1 = Required:

1 - Mobile with JellyBean

2 - Rom KitKat 4.4.4 (which may be one but have to be 4.4.4)

3 - Rom Lollipop 5.1.x (A Rom this topic ...)

2 = Here we go:

1. With the Stock Rom GingerBread

1.1 Install the Stock Rom JellyBean via Odin in your I9070

1.2 Install Rom KitKat 4.4.4 (No Root)

2. After the INSTALLING Rom KitKat 4.4.4

2.1 Start your phone into recovery mode (Vol.UP + Home + Pwr)

2.2 Make full wipe (/ date / cache / system and Dalvik)

2.3 Install Rom Lollipop

2.4 (Optional) Install PAGApps 5.1.x

2.5 Wipe the Dalvik

3. By checking the "Reboot" Recovery will ask if you want to Root, select the "No" (In my installation to make root the Roma can not boot)

4. Ready!

If you follow all the steps, depending on the current situation of your device, the ROM will take about five minutes to start ...

A written message "optimizing applications" will appear on the screen, then just wait ...

If you have an error in writing or in contexts know that I used Google Translator ...

So already you know ... :silly:

gps and faded screen

Great rom so far only 2 problems which must be related.

When an app tries to activate gps the phone reboots and then when it comes on the screen is faded. A reboot solves the faded screen but gps still doesn't work.

Thank you for all your hard work on this rom. I really appreciate it.

It was happening for me as well but after I turned off LiveDisplay, it happened never again. Try to check that option
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Original Android Developmen] gonxsster:
No, I don't think that's the problem. I have flashed my phone again I can see those messages on Recovery and it's normal to see formatting /sdcard0 and /sdcard1... I suspect that your zip file is corrupted, that means that you didn't downloaded right. Try to download the last build with the GAPPS and try again.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Original Android Developmen] Jaanto:
Sure, I'll try later today, thanks.

Mixed response with the ROM so far

As promised, I am sharing a quick feedback about The latest build after using this for the last 24 hours. This is definitely one of the smoothest ROM. I am able to make and receive calls after flashing the latest build. A few things needs attention. whatsapp image bug needs to be fixed. tried the horizontal image sending method ..no go... Screen fading issue is causing a lot of problem and requires reboot although the live display is off now. During a call after talking for more than 10 minutes or so I see that the screen fade and the cyanogenMod logo appears and after sometime the phone crashes which require a reboot. This incident happened 3 to 4 times(everytime) I was on call. I also lost the latest whats App conversation and the recent call logs from my phone due to the phone crash while on call. My GPS, 3G, 2G and browser works fine. i have installed a few important applications which I use day in day out and they dont crash except the facebook app gave me the Screen fade issue. I am surely ready to wait for the next build/update. Keep up the good work.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Original Android Developmen] CPedrini:
In case you mess up the partition scheme you can format firmware with Odin, but using also the PIT file for your device (it's different from 8 vs 16 gb version).
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Original Android Developmen] Logeshx2:
Please Help!

Followed all the steps correctly.But still stuck at the CM12 Logo. Waited for about 30 Mins,still not booting.

I used CWM Recovery

The Rom I'm using currently now : CM 11 Kitkat 4.4.2 Janice

Downloaded ROM : cm12.1_janice-120515.zip (Latest Build)

Downloaded GAPPS : Lollipop_gapps.zip

Tried with and without the boot.cpio.gz file (But not needed for the latest build).thing

Is Anything wrong with me?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Original Android Developmen] Akhil gajjar:
I saw this type of same problem in my device.

But I soule this problem.

In new version boot.cpio.gz in the ROM file but you need to put boot.cpio.gz in the /efs folder then you flash the ROM and your ROM is successful boot it up.

Sorry for my bad English.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Original Android Developmen] Logeshx2:
I already mentioned that I put boot.cpio.bz in the /efs (Permissions set to 777) folder.

But still not booting up.

Use other Rom with 4.4.4

Flash 4.4.4 first and Flash 5.1
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Original Android Developmen] gonxsster:
There's no guarantee that flashing 4.4.4 will solve the issue of booting. I'm con 4.4.4 AOSP by J- Team and can't make boot this ROM. I already tried like 7 times with all wipes correctly. I hope hastalafiesta can find a solution to users that can't make boot this ROM.

SD card problem with certain apps

Hi all,

I tried this rom, it boots up and everything seems to work fine(very smooth, great job btw!!), but i have a problem i have been googling and searching xda that i haven't found a solution or seen mentioned in this thread yet.

While my sd card is recognized, i can use poweramp to play files(explorer to look through my files), when i try to use the camera(stock or download the google one) or nokia here maps,(or sygic) i get a message about needing to insert an sd card in order to take a picture or open navigation software. As far as i can tell i have given write permissions to all those apps when installing(platform.xml looks good too). Other than that, phone boots up fine and everything works as expected(minus the bugs already mentioned). The other thing that bugs me is that /storage/sdcard0 is empty, but in settings>storage the internal storage is properly recognized.

My problem seems to be that apps do not recognize the internal or external storage whereas both cards seem to be mounted properly. Am i missing something here?

I have been trying to solve this for the past two days without a glimpse of hope so far, so i am very sorry if this is some common knowledge am missing.

Thanks for any help or insight.

Additionally when it happens phone can't enable/use GSM connection.

Please consider some bugfix

Suggested by [MENTION=5595197]bhisma_gangga[/MENTION]

This is method which i have applied, and it's worked

PS: before installing, i already on cm11 by expirex 04/14

1. reboot to recovery and put boot.cpio.gz to /efs with Aroma File Manger don't forget set permission.

2. then do full wipe (system,data,cache)

3. instal the Rom

4. instal Gapps..

Has anyone had issues with Bluetooth A2DP? My phone doesn't seem to see my car's Bluetooth.

Although my car is having other electrical issues, I hear the Bluetooth lady say :"Hi, I'm ready, waiting for a connection ". So, I am assuming the car's part is working, but the phone doesn't see the car's Bluetooth. It worked fine with Epirex's CM11.

Also note that the Bluetooth I have in my car isn't a built in thing meant for calls, the car is 34 years old. It is more like a Bluetooth audio sink for media playing.

The rom Lollipop is based on CyanogenMod, then you must have CyanogenMod 11 (4.4.4) installed on the phone and then make the Flash CyanogenMod 12.1 ...

If I remember correctly, the problem is in Recovery System. Because so far I've only managed to install the CM12.1 using a kernel of CM11 ...

I used the CarbonRom (4.4.4) and could not do flash with Recovery him ...

Can I flash this over cm10.1?

I have settled 6 months ago on the famous version from 1711 in 2013 ;)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Original Android Developmen] lebidou:
It probably should. Although be aware that :

some users have trouble booting the ROM,

Using GPS causes soft reboots, compass doesn't work,

Autobrightness doesn't work,

Some bluetooth functionnalities seem lost (although I am the only talking about it, so... maybe it is just me),

Video recording doesn't work (An app like Camu does, but I tested it and quality was poor : low framerate),

Switching between 3G and 2G has been reported as buggy,

Sending picture via WhatsApp doesn't work (horizontal pictures has been reported to work at times),

There maybe other small issues that went unnoticed.

Have a nice time.

___

Yesterday evening I flashed MkKernel 5.6.1, for the sake of testing. I checked I had a boot.cpio.gz file in /efs before hand. It went fine.

Here are my first impressions after a few hours of runtime

Boot time is equivalent.

All bugs/issues mentioned before remain unchanged.

Everything is as smooth, maybe a little more even. (I use the Dynamic governor, 200-1150 Mhz, and SIOPlus I/O Scheduler)

Both KSM and zRAM are enabled by default, and surprisingly, it didn't slow down my phone right away as it usually do. To be safe I set /proc/sys/vm/page-cluster to 0 and /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/sleep_millisecs to 500, as per Google recommendation on low ram devices. These values usually play nice for me (it is totally empirical).

The bottom line is : much less memory usage. In the Developer Options part of the Settings, there's a Process Statistics thing. With the default kernel, it reports memory usage to be mostly critical. With MkKernel, it says to be mostly average. The available free memory was always around 100MB every time I checked.

I also didn't face any slow down due to low memory or out of memory situations.

I wouldn't go as far as to recommend everybody to switch to MkKernel 5.6.1, hastalafiesta needs people to test his kernel too. I just thought it could useful to report on the little test I had. I guess there a bit of room for optimization.

And thanks to hastalafiesta for the work you've done! Waiting for the next release to see what you'll have fixed! (I am secretly hoping for auto brightness and GPS, but I won't complain if it is something else)

Sure there are some bugs but at the other hand even tho its a beta version it is very stable and usable (its my daily driver by the way).This is all thanks to this community with lots of awesome developers like you hastalafiesta and all the people helped him thank you and keep up the good work.Hoping to see some bug fixes , i will use this rom as it is but a bug free version is always nice to have.If i had a job or money to spare i would have donated to you.

Finally I have flashed this ROM

After several tries to flash this ROM from 4.4.4 AOSP by J-Team, I've followed the instructions from my new friend [MENTION=6675889]wmsouza[/MENTION]. I flashed CM 11 by Epirex and then this ROM and finally booted it up! Looks and feels awesome.

I have experienced some soft reboots and random freezes. Sometimes while I'm navigating on Chrome the phone doesn't respond... despite of that, the ROM it's very stable but needs some tweaks. Such a shame that video camera doesn't work properly but I think it will be solved very soon.
