Hello,

For everyone experiencing the lagg only fixable by rebooting in last versions, im not sure if i have a fix, but for now it seems like turning off app optimisation helps.

Settings -> battery -> app optimisation.

Let me know if the problem still persists after it.

locked screen restart bug

hello

i set up a pin code for my locked screen. it works. but when i restart phone, the screen isnt locked anymore. no asking for pin anymore. i need to set it up again, then it works and asks for pin code again.

to be short: restarting phone prevents lock screen pin code from working

(i didnt test other lock screen options. but still, it shouldnt be like that, right?)

Hiya, is this still in development? I'd like to say a big thank you for this rom and let you know of the problems I've found.

1- As mentioned above, the camera and camera picture preview displays the pictures in an odd colour for the first few seconds, then it goes to normal..

2 - The lock screen disables its self every time the phone is restarted rendering it unprotected if lost or stolen.

That's all for now.
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] Bruno Wagner:
Work in G850M?

This ROM work in Alpha 850M?
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] Pvcabr:
Yes
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] chrisgrey:
So what is going to happen to the bug with the lock screen problem after a restart (see #1737)? That is actually a deal breaker.

I'm guessing nothing more is going to be done by the dev with this rom.. It does say final in the title.

Although if the broken lock screen is the only thing stopping you you could download a new locks screen app.

Edit: Apparently he's moved to iPhone ????
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] mrini:
This rom work in gti 9500?
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] Bruno Wagner:
Tested and approved!

I tested the ROM for a time really is very good, all funcionan resources, almost no instability keeps the stock 5.0.2 resources so as various windows, adaptive sound, biometric sensor, etc., only the photo environment camera feature (that it was possible to create a picture at 360 ° in all directions), but that's all.

The ROM is already rooted and installed Xposed. Could have more customization, does this is the least of this great rom.

It would be nice an update to Marshmallou or 5.1 Lollipop.

In the end, great job to the developers!

[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] Bruno Wagner:
OzCanRom Aroma work in Galaxy Alpha G850M

Well, as you can see in the picture, the model number says my Alpha is the SM-A310F, but is appearing so because this ROM installed, in fact, my Galaxy Alpha is the 'G850M'.

I installed the same installation instructions speak. Before installing I was with Stock 5.0.2, already had the device rooted and installed TWRP. At the time of installing the ROM, marked the option that said it would not delete my personal data and I selected the option to have come Xposed installed.

Hello,

I have several questions about this rom:

A) using the original case with Samsung S-wiew and information about events do not display correctly ... these infarmace extend beyond the little window casing and can not read well.

B) Web browser from Samsung behaves incorrectly ... if I start the video in this browser wants to run a program built on video browser crashes and then not using the home with this browser getting back to the home screen ....

someone has these problems? if so how do you.

thank you for answer
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] zailer:
hi just installed Ozcan on my G850Y. Had to flash again since my modem.bin needs to be swapped. Either use any archive manager (like 7zip) and swap the stock moden.bin. Ozcan Rom boot or kernel works fine. Since i am lazy at times, just restored only the modem from my earlier stock backup. It works fine.

Thank you developer for his patience , time and effort. This is a wonderful butter smooth rom with premium look and feel. Also "OFFICIAL" rom status in about phone. Really really great work kudos !!

Happened the same to me but I was making a mistake of not rebooting after wipe. It is mandatory

OP..... Thank you. Awesome rom I'm loving it. The only downside is pokémon is not working anymore. Did some research and it seems it due to being rooted. Is there any work around? Cuz the other side is that I could play without leaving home and I'd like that (raining season here) but everywhere I go talks about MM and we're using LP

Thnx anyway
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] hachamacha:
I realize that this ROM is out of development, but I've got a question that I'm guessing many of you know the answer to:

Is tethering (as in rooted tethering, not the stuff that goes with your plan) built into this ROM?

Many thanks.

addition/edit :: I guess I meant to ask: Which tethering method works for this final ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] hachamacha:
To answer my question myself and in case anyone else is wondering:: Tethering is just built in and works fine even though my plan doesn't have it.

The ROM: It is a terrific ROM for me. I realize no one is listening who was involved in making it, but great job anyway.

Cheers.

Thanks again,

Edit: I just realized that this must not be a source based (AOSP) ROM. I guess I spent too much time on Moto X 2013's and forgot that they aren't so prevalent everywhere. NM
