[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
did you flash super su?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] paukev:
nope. Should I flash it? Do you have a link for this? Thanks

---------- Post added at 03:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:40 AM ----------

I just flashed the SuperSU zip for TWRP. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1538053

And installed the SuperSU apk on playstore.

But still, supersu won't work. It says binary has to be updated.

I have Xposed installed and some modules.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
yeah binary message is normal, I am using supersu v 2.46 and v.49 not versions works

here is v2.49 http://www.mediafire.com/?8nuiyg68pd7226j
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] gothicVI:
Why would you even do that without having functioning root access? Get your system working first, then mod it. Otherwise you might someday end up with a soft bricked device and then will have to start from zero again.

Edit: without working root I'd suspect xposed to not work at all btw.

When trying to flash twrp 2.8.... : please update to latest update-binary!

What is the solution for this?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] paukev:
sorry for that. But I can't have root access on 12.1 .. That is why I went back to CM10.2 . I have access now and it's working fine with Xposed.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
remove notification or just click on notification and follow steps.

@up guy i would not suggest use latest super su versions. Because v2,46 and v2.49 works great for this version (tested by myself). Marshmallow root is supersu v2.52 (reccomended)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] [-GuTi-]:
I don't know, most of you are using another app to get root access, why?

CM already with root, go in Settings for developers and enable root access for ADB and Apps
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
if it's compiled as "user" then there is no term.apk and no native root.

For this it's needed to build for "userdebug"

or simply catch su binary + term.apk from userdebug build ... then u've native root... and u don't need to use annoying superuser.apk from chainfire.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] gothicVI:
No need to apologized. Was just wondering [emoji6]

I finally updated my ace 2, to cm 12.1.

First i flashed cm 11 then cm 12.1 but without signature verification!!

I'm happy with the rom it's blazing fast, and most important feature is Pin Apps!
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
hah blazing fast, but not faster than kitkat, marshmallow is even faster than lollipop.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dokotrs:
This is way more stable and usable than Omni 5.1.1, vanir 4.4.4, cm 11 on my device. And I mean a WAY more, in other ROMs are bugs like every app on phone shows FC pop-ups, screen tearing everywhere, slow overal system and so on. Before trying every of those four ROMs (including this + mentioned above), I thought that this CM12.1 will be the slowest of all, because, you know, kitkat roms had more time to be well made and, I thought, are lighter than 5.1.1 in terms of system requirements. Oh, the irony.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
Kitkat is now long developed, chrono and ace 2 nutzer kitkat works faster than ever sure it gives some FC but only randomly and maybe 1-2 times in a day thats all.

Lollipop is heavy and sure it has fancy animations and etc, but from my 1 year experience it was laggy and slow compared to kitkat (now having kitkat), also battery life is worse in lollipop. Swapped to marshmallow and then felt a real smoothness difference between lollipop. Even marshmallow in beta it works faster and smoother than lollipop also battery life is about the same as kitkat one. Had marshmallow for 1-2 months. Sure marshmallow is not so fast in browsing, also when trying to play videos.. But everything above kitkat is getting slow on our devices. Maybe marshmallow is better than lollipop it is okay. Rumours says google will try to lower ram usage of OS in android N so thats very good for low end device (good for ace 2), lets hope if it will be very comparable or even better than kitkat.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
u guys can try on such "laggy" and "slow" roms .. to change some settings in kernel if it'll run faster and smoother, then u've found the problem.. try:

disable zRam completely.

use I/O: SIOPLUS or FIOPS.

set performance gov @ 800Mhz or use min. max @ 800Mhz for CPU Freq. (same)

Set GPU Freq @ 400Mhz static.

better ? - If not, test different LCD Frequencies as well .. nothing can happen....

Still laggy ? - Then u even need to adjust lcd video.modes as well...

If it's still slow and laggy then it's for sure a ROM problem or just too high RAM usage.

btw: of course i don't suggest to use for ever CPU @ 800Mhz and GPU 400Mhz static ... it'll drain much battery ... but u should do this just for testing purposes ;)

edit:

force also DDR/APE to 100% ....
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dokotrs:
Then you are really lucky, IAmLucky, because kitkat, even overclocked, runs worse than this CM12.1 ROM. I just tested evey rom only 30 minutes, maybe there's the problem, but this ROM works better than others from the start.

Best ROM for this phone is still unbeaten - Rox CM10.2, at least on my phone.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
yeah but just too old ROM .. too much security leak ;)

btw: after installing any ROM .. u should wait till the CPU freq will chill @ 200Mhz .. when u go to settings ---> performance .. then CPU .. just don't do nothing .. and wait till it shows 200Mhz instead 800Mhz ... after this the system is fully loaded and it should run properly..... but before .. it's just slow and laggy .. this is also because of running media scanner and so on .. it takes for me around 10 minutes of uptime .. only after installing new rom or update ... but usually after an normal reboot it takes around 3 - 5 minutes ! ;)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
also if you use a lot of apps download greenify, it freezes all apps in background and it speeds up phone and battery life.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dokotrs:
Is SergeyL still working on this ROM? There's bluetooth problems.

Phone disconnets bluetooth as soon as screen is locked. Not always, but often, every second time I lock screen.

And bluetooth crashes badly in this case, phone tries to turn it on, but with no success. Only reboot helps.

As I have this phone for streaming audio to my bluetooth speaker, this is very, very bad problem, ROM is unusable in this case.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
title

also I would suggest trying marshmallow version.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Dokotrs:
Oh.. final..

Final when not really final.

Tried, marshmallow lags, makes phone hot like never before. I'll just wait for new builds of marshmallow then.

Oh, CM10.2, welcome back...
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
Oh weird how it happens to you like that. Never had such issues. ace2nutzer is getting closer to bugfree ROM! :)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] jbmc83:
hey guys, back here with some bad news:

my gf went crazy on me today, reporting tons of problems with her phone after me installing this rom for her a week ago. issues include google play store not working properly, saying that apps cant be updated due to low memory?! also, sometimes apps just disappear (not only from her homescreen, but just completely from her phone), force closing suddenly or taking forever to properly load up (intermittent black screen for minutes before showing anything). similar things go for app switching, i.e. between google maps and dialer...

question: has anyone encountered anything drastic like that with this rom before? also, is there anything i have to consider when switching internal and external memory? i initially just the used the in-built setting in the advanced settings submenu and it looked like it worked after a reboot. i restored my gf´s apps from a TB backup, manually moved all the ones i could to the larger memory, and yeah, i thought that would do the trick...but now im hearing these stories and im not so sure anymore! :D

in any case, i would be helpful for any input or suggestions u might have :)

cheers
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
about low memory... Welcome to to 5.0 and up android :) Apps takes 2x more space than in previous android versions (that's because android 5.0 and up uses ART, that's why I believe). That's normal. Me and many other people repart to 3gb space for apps data. This means that we did 1 MB of space in our phone internal SD partition, and deleted useless partitions and added them to data. There are some zips to repart phone. But this means you will only be able to use phone with SD card only. These things seems to happen because of low memory. 3 chances: Remove useless apps, or do repartition, or go back in stable cm11 made by ace2nutzer. If issues will still happen, probably having greenify would surely fix lag issues, since I believe your gf uses ram and battery eater Facebook and mesenger... Greenify would freeze apps in background in exchange you will not receive notifications until you open app.

About apps being missing from homescreen and etc that's because you probably moved apps into 'SD card' partition and after some time (maybe after reboot or SD card remove) apps gets hidden even though they are in phone. Magic repartition removes that useless partition and expands single /data partition for apps.

write me in PM for repartition.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] jbmc83:
interesting, thx for the headsup. so if i understand correctly, a repartitioning zip like this one would help in my case?

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-ace/ace-2-develop/guide-cwm-reparted-t2895673

or do u recommend a different kind of solution? more info on that repartitioning would be nice ;)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
there is one repart zip made by ace 2 nutzer, but only if your partitions matches partitions in zip file. If you will do this repartition, it will be most likely permanent, And you will be able to use phone ONLY with SD card, because SD partitions for photos/videos will be only 1 MB. Type df in terminal and paste everything here. I will check if my zip will work in your phone.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] jbmc83:
cool thx for your help. unfortunately, since this is my gf's device were talking about i wont be able to actually get my hands on it until next weekend. so ill come back with an update then :) thx again so far, much appreciated!
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
no problem
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Moandco:
Hello guys,

this is the first time I am going to flash a custom ROM so i want to make sure i do everything 100% correct. I am unsure how to install this rom. Do i need to install a custom kernal like Chrono Kernel or is the kernal part of the ROM? At the moment i got a Stock Android 4.1.2 and stock kernal. I already rooted the device using temporary CWM. Can someone please answer my question or even write a slightly more detailed installation routine?

I know that this question might be very dumb but I am really a noob. I hope your answer is going to improve knowledge about flashing custom roms so i won't need further help. Thanks
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] shadow252:
1. Flash ChronoKernel

2. Reboot recovery

3. Wipe data, cache, dalvik cache and system

4. Flash ROM

5. Flash GApps(only pico version) if you want.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] jbmc83:
just wanted to give some additional feedback here:

so after having some issues on this rom concerning internal storage space due to too many apps installed and their size being significantly larger than on JB before due to ART, i followed [MENTION=5818374]IAmLucky[/MENTION]'s advice and repartitioned the internal storage with his and [MENTION=5840412]ace2nutzer[/MENTION]'s help in order to maximize internal app partition to ~3.5GB. now all apps work, no crashes or great lags anymore and still about 1.3GB left :) only "downside": external sd card is a must for daytoday operation of the phone now since all other internal partitions are minimized to like 1MB and the external sd card is used for everything now.

nevertheless, everything seems to be working as it should now! :) i just hope my gf wont encounter any more issues now, otherwise i guess ill be going back to kitkat, following [MENTION=5818374]IAmLucky[/MENTION]'s advice on it being the smoothest Ace 2 rom out there :)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
well, with repartitions cache partition was lowered, as well sdcard0 changed to 1mb, this is where comes all extra GB.

Though, I don't see any point having sdcard0 when there is external SD card for photos and files lol.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Moandco:
I got this rom working today but the sim isn't working. I checked and the baseband is unknown as well as my IMEI. I used this app to backup my modem and efs partition back when i was on stock JB. So I installed the app on this rom and restored both partitions. The app told me the process was successful but actually nothing changed (not even after reboot). I also got two tar.gz files when I backed the partitions up. Are they flashable with a custom rom or not?Or can't the restoration work because I am on another rom now?

EDIT: Solved by following this tutorial: [GUIDE][GB/JB] Installing Custom Roms on GT-I8160L/P
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
rip modemfs
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] gothicVI:
Did you directly flash this ROM coming from jb?

Gesendet von meinem Moto G 2014 LTE mit Tapatalk
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
not possible without custom (chrono) kernel, since flashing directly will lead in error status 7
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Moandco:
I solved the problem but thanks for reply. I followed this guide: [GUIDE][GB/JB] Installing Custom Roms on GT-I8160L/P

The problem wasn't actually the modemfs but rather the rom incompatiblity with the NFC version of the Ace 2 P.

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
Original Thread Post UPDATED. Thanks [MENTION=5701787][-GuTi-][/MENTION]
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Culateralligator:
Two doubts.

Has anybody tried installing this ROM with F2FS format?

Can standalone ChronoKernel be installed without problems? [MENTION=1508790]SergeyL[/MENTION]
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] [-GuTi-]:
As i remember, SergeyL said that will add f2fs support, but i don't know did he add it

About second question - i don't know
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Noxialis:
This important bit of information should be added to OP so people won't keep asking the same damned question (no salt, beef, or hate there, just expression) about why this ROM doesn't have root.

"I don't know, most of you are using another app to get root access, why?

CM already with root, go in Settings for developers and enable root access for ADB and Apps" - [MENTION=5701787][-GuTi-][/MENTION]
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] r_e_n_e:
I had "[ROM][4.4.4][TeamCanjica] CyanogenMod 11.0".

I installed the latest kernel "chrono_kernel_r4.2.9.zip".

I installed your ROM then . I rebooted a system, but I stacked on android logo.

What can be wrong?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
[MENTION=5235007]Noxialis[/MENTION] so thats something like FAQ? i will add that later when im on pc

[MENTION=1445274]r_e_n_e[/MENTION] try flashing r4.2.7 kernel version or something like that, because Latest version has r4.2.8 so it might be it is coflicting. Try that, maybe it will work. Or it should work with some older r4 kernel versions. Also maybe [MENTION=1508790]SergeyL[/MENTION] will post an answer (he is developer)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] r_e_n_e:
nope...still the same...

but now I got error during the installation "failed to mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p5
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Culateralligator:
Maybe Ace2Nutzer kernel will let you install the ROM.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
nope, a2n uses cwm recovery, it will give error status 7.

Thougj it have to work with CWM but when i try to flash with CWM it leads to error. But yeah he could try.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
which one kernel you flashed?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
also did you flash chrono kernel then reboot recovery then flash rom?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] r_e_n_e:
I flashed "chrono_kernel_r4.2.9.zip" first, then "chrono_kernel_r4.2.7.zip", still the same.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
did you reboot recovery after flashing kernel?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] r_e_n_e:
don't remember...why?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
because after rebooting recovery, it must change to twrp and rom installation should work.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] r_e_n_e:
So...I made procedure what you recommended and result is the same...

I made kernel installation, reboot to recovery and rom installation (+ gapps) I'm getting Android logo more then 10 minutes after the reboot...
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
hmmm, it shouldnt be like that, are you sure, your model is not 1860P (nfc) ?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] AverageDood:
Ok, I'll tell what I did for installing:

1.-Boot to recovery and format system, data, cache and dalvik cache

2.- Install ChronoKernel

3.-Boot to recovery again; you'll have PhilZ (based on CWM) instead TWRP.

4.-Flash ROM

5.-Flash GApps

It's all

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] r_e_n_e:
Thanks mate...

- format system, data, cache and dalvik cache - what filesystem you used? f2fs, ext4?

- ChronoKernel, what version?

thanks again for help
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
probably the best way would be going from jelly bean (btw i think he is giving steps from jelly bean. If so then if u are completely stock, flash temp cwm, reboot recovery if it does not show cwm recovery, then flash chrono kernel, then try install rom, see if that helps.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] AverageDood:
Format: ext4

ChronoKernel: last version

Enviado desde mi GT-I8160 mediante Tapatalk
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] r_e_n_e:
Thanks mate...with ext4 it works!

BUT I have same problem what I had on CM11. That's why I went to CM12.1

I want to use my mobile internet.

I turn on MOBILE DATA option. I go to browser and use some web. It says no network connection.

It seems connection doesn't work.

I tried to turn on a hotspot option and connection thru hotspot doesn't work too.

Only WiFi connection works to my home router.

What can be the problem?

anyway...CM12.1 seems to be lagy...
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Chichi.Lopez:
Hi, I recently found out, that there is a charging problem - at least on my phone. When I switched my phone off and plugged the cable in for charging, the phone starts booting!? Any idea? Is it some bug? I'm on this rom now for some versions and do not remember this behaviour before.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] IAmLucky:
tried flashing modemfs? also revert to stock jelly bean? thats not a problem with rom versiom, its most likely something else.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] r_e_n_e:
Thanks mate...

Do you have any manual how can I do that?

Thanks.

i've had this for ages with different roms. i think it also has to do with a bad usb connector on the phone or cable.. mine also doesnt do data connection over usb to computer..

Its annoying when battery is too empty to boat completely.. but then sometimes it suddenly works well enough to charge and it doesnt start booting automatically.. Not sure what exact cause is.. Maybe bad dataline in usb?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Chichi.Lopez:
You are absolutly right! The behaviour is different with different USB cables. Guess it has nothing to do with the rom at all. Thanx
