[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] TheWhisp:
AICP depends on CyanogenMod and since CM is still working on merging their changes for 6.0, however I am working CM-13.0, but it will not be stable enough for daily use anytime soon

YEAAAHHH! :D Thank you for AICP Rom for our A5! AICP is for sure one of the best roms out there. It's runnig smooth as a silk on my device! I'm lookig forward to you work regarding CM13/M6 :good:

Guys, I am currently building an AOSP 6.0 ROM, there are a lot of issues (Force close, reboot etc..) but I am working on it :)
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] klemen241:
One small and anoying bug on all of your roms, when i have for example facebook opened, and i am writing a post, and meanwhile i get fb notification, the fb app hides and i can only see keyboard. Same with messages. If there is fb notification or any notification while wirting, i can only see keyboard, untill that notification goes away.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] TheWhisp:
You mean the heads up notifications? Yeah, that's not a bug. Also, Android/CyanogenMod itself is not bug free, I merely just port the ROM and work on device specific things
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] klemen241:
oh yea, thats what i thought, no problem, i can live with it haha
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] TrollByte:
Hey, any possibility you could add smart unlock? I have bought some NFC tags (they work, except for the Mifare tags, but the chip in the device is incompatible) so I could unlock my device using smart unlock, but that didnt work. The option doesn't seem to be in in the apps with usage access section.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] Christoph.bcn:
Similar problem. I'm not sure if it had to do with this ROM or whether it is a limitation in CM itself but if I use a PIN I can't launch any app over the lockscreen except for the default apps. It will prompt for my PIN. I can launch the camera with the shortcut on the right (default), but not on the left. I can also launch apps I put on the lockscreen through lock screen widgets lp (xposed) and quick access (xposed) so the failure definitely hadn't anything to do with the app itself. I tried this with different apps, but no dice, only the default shortcuts don't provoke the need of my PIN.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] TheWhisp:
Flash different gapps (the ones I included in the 1st post should be OK), I am using smart lock myself
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] astrit1:

GPS

Hey Guys,

As it seems I'm having some troubles with GPS reception. Recently, I did some test wit GPS-Data app to check how GPS is performing. To my suprise, I couldn't get a fix to any satellite, moreover the app showed only 5 sats above me. To cross-check I flashed the most recent touchwiz rom which is currently based on lollipop 5.0.2. On touchwiz rom GPS works fine as I could get a fix within a couple of seconds and I was connected to 15 sats of 23 available. So there must be something I'm doing wrong on AICP rom. Guys how is GPS running on your end? :confused:
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] mygalaxya:

Any experiences about battery consumption compared to the stock rom?

I flashed the latest rom and gapps(nano Package) from the links on the first page and

everytime after restart i get the "google play services has stopped" error.

Is there any solution for this ?

CM13 will take quite some time, you can expect a release when CM starts to roll out nightly builds since they are still merging their code.

Of course there is also some progress on A5:

Most of the things I tried (audio, camera, bluetooth, wifi, couple of videos in YT) seems to be ok, there are some issues with RIL and GPS, but core functionality is ok

I downloaded the mx player to my android tv. and when i am playing a move there is a sound delay - delay between the lips and the output sound. is there any option to config it? like there is in other programs?

The only way to deal with it, its to play sound in a mp3 player and set mxplayer audio to off.

I hope we get that feature soon.

The neighbors could not reconcile with the behavior of the new neighbor, and called the police. But when they arrived and saw Mr. Angrys, they just to said hello, saluted and left, Toony realized it's the chief of the police station himself. Without hesitation, Toony took matters into their own hands and start to take revenge on his neighbor without giving him one quiet minute in order to try to get him out of their neighbourhood.

MY SD Card Isn't Working

- Format the SD Card in recovery to Ext4 (from FAT) and it should be good to go. Besides, who likes the 3.9GB file limit of FAT anyways (:

- NTFS formatting also works, but SD card is no longer detectable in recovery.

Help! Miscellaneous is draining my battery!

Miscellaneous itself is not some mystical process that drains battery. It's showing the difference between estimated battery drain and actual battery drain (so more like a summation of all of the miscellaneous processes that drained the battery unexpectedly).

Work In Progress. Will be updated as comments are added.

If you are experiencing any issues and have performed a dirty flash, please try a clean flash prior to posting your question. Thank you!

If you have an issue and want require help, please submit a kmsg log with the following information:

Note: Do not pull out battery or else no log; this log can be located at: /proc/last_kmsg

When Possible, Please Include:

- Instructions to recreate the error you encountered.

Hey guys, quick question here, are all supersu zip files the same? It's a noob question, but does it matter which supersu you download? Like, do phones and tablets need a specific version or does just googling for the newest zip file to flash with a custom recovery just work everytime? Thanks!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
the same zip should work in any device with a custom recovery.

SuperSU is hardware agnostic.. However, it is not Android version agnostic, so make sure you download one for your version of Android
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H4X0R46:
That's good to know! And how can you usually tell? Does the webpage usually mention which android version it's for if you read it carefully? (As you should with ANY mod) And worse case scenario, a software brick that can be recovered is the worst right?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
i have never seen them posted in that manner.

from my experience, a current su zip will work across at least 2 major versions, possibly more, i simply dont know the range.

im curious to hear danarama's explination too, i might learn something :p
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
It's to do with stable versus Beta. When a New OS version comes out, e.g 5.0, then it *may* be that SuperSU needs tweaks and you have to move from stable: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1538053 to beta: http://xdaforums.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133

We also had to move to Beta when 5.1 came out as there were amendments needed, however after a while those amendments made it to stable. I'm not sure where Android M sits. Whether it needs any changes from stable. If it does then people will be using the beta.

So basically, it doesn't matter what hardware you have. It only matters how new your OS is and whether any changes that may have been needed with that new OS are in stable yet or in beta. ...and afaik, all official releases (so excluding the Android M dev preview) are covered by the latest stable release. As for backwards compatibility, my assumption would be that they are, but I never keep a phone long enough to find out.
