Hi Boss :)

I'm running the 8.3...if I install the 8.5 with a fullwipe...I lost my data?
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
Yep. A fullwipe will delete all data and apps..

But try this:

1. In recovery backup your data partition.

2. Perform a fullwipe (wipe/clean to install a new rom)

3. Flash v8.5

4. Reboot

5. When it ask for pin code reboot to recovery again.

6. Restore your data partition.

7. Now you will have all like before. (That method should work, I never tried it. XD)

P.s: if you use xposed framework. Flash it again before step 4.

I did it like always: Flash ROM, flash Xposed, flash swap2sd, flash gueste kernel, wipe cache and dalvik, reboot. Wait after updating system and enjoy.

And no problems so far.

I cannot find 'omniswitch' anymore....

Removed for a reason, or do I something wrong?

[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
Omniswitch is removed because of the appdrawer FC. It dont work well.

But if you want to use it you can search in Xda for omniswitch lollipop. ;)/ install it as a normal apk

Thank you for this solution doing a fullwipe without loosing all data and apps. Please show that in a place where everyone can see and read it.

For all, go in recovery and choose restore/backup then custom backup sdcard 1 choose only data, unchoose the rest and do the backup. Then just follow the instructions of skeleton1911.

Thanks once more for this great hint

And of course for the brilliant work on the ROM. Flawless as always. Your the best my friend

One might argue, that it's not a full-wipe then (if you don't wipe the data partition) :o
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
well , its better in that way , then with a dirty flash. because in that way the system partition will be clean and dont get overwriten..:eek:

of course a full fullwipe :silly: without restoring something is the best method-:cool:
[Elephone P8000] Stefan Gündhör:
true, probably better than a dirty flash :good:

I might try that too next time

Hi Skeleton,

I've followed your instructions, fullwipe + installing the new version.

In addition, I investigated the issue a little bit more, the browsers aren't loading local websites (Israel addresses) without wifi.

Maybe do you have a new idea why it happens?

[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
In my update to 2.0.4 it should wipe cache and dalvik itself.

But its never wrong to do it twice ;)

Only local? Maybe they are blocked from server side? Your system/etc/host file is original? (It is , if you don't use ad blocking)

I investigated it more, I took popular websites (youtube and facebook) and run it on both browsers (chrome and CM).

the CM didn't load youtube but loaded facebook

chrome loaded both.

but both browers didnt load sites with Israeli domain

it somehow related to browser compressing data according to the following post I found:

Hi skeleton,

The new Viper4android 2.4.0.1 doesn't work with my P8000. I can install it, including drivers, but it does not process, i.e. there is no change in sound.

When I uninstall it, and install V4A 2.3.4.0 back, it works correctly. I have been using V4A for over 2 years on many phones and this time I also tried all the tricks possible without any success.

Can you please take a look at it?
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
use 2.3.4.0 then.

i dont know about 2.4.0.1 but i can imagine that this is for android 6. and thats why it dont work for you.

Well, it does not say anywhere in VIPER4Android threads that this update is for Marshmallow. It is just a regular update.

I came back to 2.3.4.0 but the main point is that they started new development after a year without any updates. It probably means there will be next versions coming sooner rather than later, and (since you include VIPER4Android in your ROM) you could check out what the problems are.

I do not care that much for 2.4.0.1 in particular but it is possible that future updates will include important improvements, and it would be good to be able to use them.

And thanks for the excellent ROM!
[Elephone P8000] MikeJT:
Thanks Skeleton for this Rom - better than ever.

V8.5.0 has solved the rapid battery drain I experience in v8.3 (that version was the first time I had a problem).

What is interesting, "better battery stats" under v8.3 Rom was showing "awake - screen off" as around 90% of the battery drain. Under v8.5 this usage has dropped to around 15%!

I've made no change to my installed apps or the way I use the phone.

No idea what you did but awesome work ? thank you
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
yep :) it was related to some tweaks i added into v8.3 . they work in every qualcom device,

Hello.

In "Calendar" I find three choices for early in the week (Saturday, Sunday or Monday), very well for me.

By cons, I can not save a new appointment!

I read that the screenshots are made with "Power + Volume Up button, but do not work for me ?

For several years I replace the clocks "Weather & Clock Widget" (clock, weather and digital battery), with this application, I have no problems with sound volume, except that it is still too low in the car with GPS , for example.

There are still Wifi cuts, but more rarely.

Edit: I put my SD card in writing, but the downloaded applications to the internal memory ?

[Elephone P8000] Netzwerker:
same here. But this happened already in 5.1 Stock ROM.

So, hello everybody - I´m new to custom ROMs, Ergon is the first one I´ve ever tried. And it´s amazing. Thanks a lot, sceleton1911! Let me share my experiences with you. Last sunday, I came from stock ROM to Eragon v8.3. Followed the instructions given (i.e. Root the P8000 with SPflash, full wipe...). Yesterday I full-wiped again, flashing v8.5 (no dirty update - everything got configured and installed again). What I recognized:

1) I use o2 SIM card; because of national roaming with ePlus 3G network, I noticed a "RH+" next to the signal bars in stock ROM and in v8.3. In v8.5, the "roaming" symbol is gone, so I can not figure out on which network I am (o2 or ePlus).

2) receiving the 1st Call in v8.5, "Black Screen Fixer" asks for SU privileges. Grant them. After the call, DT2W does not work anymore, I have to reboot the system to get it working again. Ban the access of BSF in SU, DT2W is working as ist should. I had the same issue in v8.3

3) Eragon Update / Apps. I flashed Htc Camera app, but I am not able to shoot pictures nor can I record a video. With stock camera app, everything works fine.
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
yep. but i stick to the sotck clock apk . because it is optimized for MTK devices. it will ring even when the phone is turned off.

that feature is very useful if you dont recognized that your phone goes off and an alarm is set , for example in night etc..

2 ways for that, we discuss it already look here.

1. i use that too

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64849362&postcount=3938

2.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64849364&postcount=3939

this is a stock rom bug. many android 5.1 roms have it.

this behaviour is related to the silent mode. after a reboot (when an alarm was set before) the silent mode also sets the alarm to silent.

2 things you can try :

1. at night use silent mode or important mode. set your alarm clock and sound value. dotn turn your phone off or reboot in silent mode hahahah lol :silly::eek:

2. try extrem alarm clock from playstore..

please report back if it will work with extrem alarm clock

1. you want the "r" back.? i could provide you a flashable zip for it.

2. that behaviour is a known issue. but it is unfixable. its related to custom kernels with DT2W in some devices, even in our p8000.

DT2W screws up the proximity sensor. (for most of us, me too) without the BSF the phone will get the black screen in calls, but it is possible to accidenlty tap on the phone with your ear or cheek. because touch is working even with black screen. so it could be that you mute or quit calls...

the BSF fix that behaviour and the screen is not response on touch when you make a call.

bad disadvantage the BSF will break DT2W after a call. and you have to reenable it again..

but you dont have to reboot your device, look into settings/kernel tools and apply it . then dt2W will work again.

to fully fix that, Just turn Off DT2W in kernel tools . and also you will not need the BSF anymore.

3. i will look into my htc port asap.
[Elephone P8000] Netzwerker:
;) not necessary. It was just irritating. First I thought o2 did a network expansion and put a new base station "on air", but Gmon App told me it´s still ePlus...

Thanks again for your development, it brings significant improvements to us :cool:
[Elephone P8000] jerzyjerzy:
Hi skeleton1911,

About the new Viper4Android 2.4.0.1

I checked the guitardedhero's flashable VIPER4Android zips, and they work with Eragon. As I understand, guitardedhero added/changed some entries in audio_effects.conf and audio_policy.conf and adjusted Viper's sound libraries.

You can find them at http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/themes-apps/viper4android-t2952137

Some of the zips contain also additional sound libraries (probably not really necessary on the phone) but you can select also a plain version.

Anyway, VIPER4Android 2.4.0.1 works now on my P8000, and not only that - Convolver in V4A started working again! It never did before, not on stock, not on Eragon. For me personally, it is great news!

Just to follow up on my dirty flashing adventures of last night, I went back into recovery and timed how long the cache wipe took - it was 2 minutes which was a lot faster than it feels!
