thanks
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] batman368:
That's optional as always, you can set the options you like. If you prefer the default values you don't have to edit the file.

But if you download there newest version I would recommend to set the same options that you have used before.

OK bro,

btw, when I tired Flash version 5.4 always get status error 7, I tired use TWRP v3.0.0 and CWM always same get error,

[MENTION=1030560]xXx[/MENTION] I had 5.5 (first version) installed and there I could watch "Sonera Viihde" when I used suhide but at current ROM 5.5a I get same error as before 5.5 (can't show because devise is rooted).

Where can I get back suhide previous version (I assume you made some modification to those files) ?

I have deleted local copies of xXx ROM (I have 128G ssd with Windows 10 and Ubuntu both installed on it - so not enough space for "backup" copies lol)

can i install the ROM, modem and bootloader from g900F in the g900m? i've experienced some battery drain, after 5.2
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] K4P1:
[MENTION=1030560]xXx[/MENTION] I solved it by updating to suhide v0.55 (and before that I updated TWRP from 3.0.0-0 to 3.0.2-2 but it alone didn't solve the problem)

EDIT:

At suhide:

----------------------------------------------

Requirements

- SuperSU v2.78 SR1 or newer (link)

- SuperSU installed in systemless mode

- Android 6.0 or newer

- TWRP (3.0.2 or newer, with access to /data - link!) or FlashFire (link)

Is TWRP update necessary and if so - which version of TWRP works best? (Qualcomm MSM8974AC Snapdragon 801

When updating to 5.5a, xxx.options.prop in sdcard (v11, pulled from rom zip) was completely ignored. Use.prop.in.zip=0 What ive done wrong? Also in the earlier versions i noticed that audio mods was ignored and not installing. What about that?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] K4P1:
Just in case don't pull it from zip. Instead download it:

All devices downloads

xXx.options.prop

http://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/?id=13659#downloads

Then edit it and put it in the root of either sdcard or external sdcard.

ROM installation looks options file in in pre-defined order (don't remember which comes first).

Another thing. Use for example Notepad++ (if you are using Windows) and save file in unix format (Anybody correct me if I am wrong).

This is important because Windows and *NIX (like Linux) uses different EOL (End Of Line) code. That's why linux based kernel doesn't necessarily understand windows files. Most Linux editors can edit both files and if necessary even change type but installation system is simple, so that is why installation doesn't understand windows files.

Windows text editors (that comes with OS) usually ignores EOL mismatch and when you save file, it is saved in windows format (wrong EOL for installation) and that might explain the problems with your previous xXx.options.prop file editing

oh. btw. I am talking about "text only" files.

I use Linux and I have no problems with this.

I don't think this is a general issue of the rom. The DCM provider is a service for the gallery to be able to assign categories to the pictures. If you don't use this function you could delete or freeze it. Otherwise you could try to wipe cache and data of the DCM provider.

Is it possible that you guys are using the PhoeniX kernel? I just did some other tests with different kernels and with PhoeniX kernel I also got the DCM Provider errror message while other kernels worked fine. So it seem to be v12 causing this. Let me know your experience.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] gc_geforce:
Is there an advantage using the Deodex or odex version when flashing this ROM?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xXx:
I think the difference not really notable. About 80% of the stock rom is already deodexed but only deodexed apps can be modified. That's the reason why most custom roms are deodexed out of the box.

Just select what you like. If a certain setting in xXx.options.prop will require a deodexed rom it will be automatically deodexed anyway.

Thank you.

Hi xXx,

no, I don't use phoenix kernel. Actually I first used stock kernel and I got the dcm error. Then I flashed boeffla kernel. Same error. I think it is a not kernel related problem.

I actually think it is rom related.

Hopefully you can find the problem.

Hey Guys!

Im always wondering about kernels but hard to compare.

Do you have any suggestions, which is popular for this rom?

(Best rom anyway, rock solid and fast)
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] MIKEMON:
For me, definitely Boeffla kernel

Absolutely perfect
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] K4P1:
There is no easy answer for this one.

All depends what you really need - and most "non-stock" kernels can be configured using same options including speed, governors etc... (ok, not all custom kernels supports exactly same options).

The point is actually how much you are willing to tweak the kernel yet keep it stable.

Too much tweaking sure makes kernel fast, responsive ... but unstable, power hungry and even bricking your phone.

And on the other hand, if you don't tweak enough, you won't get ALL possible power out of it.

But do you really want/need to tweak kernel to get that "extra" 1% (or 10% ?) power in cost of CPU lifespan or power consumption ?

Do you actually know what you are doing when overclocking, changing governor etc..?

I mean what physical/logical changes are you doing inside CPU (or GPU)?

(Example of the difference between physical and logical: changing max cpu clock speed is physical change but changing governor is logical)

REMEMBER

You can easily set options to physically kill your CPU (not necessarily after next boot but after some time) and you even don't know it!

Stock kernels are (or should be) pretty safe to use - they are made by phones software developers (or similar group).

Those are "more safety than power" for everyday use - yet it is safe to set options to get some "extra" power from those too.

Another thing issue is (usually): the more you tweak, the more they consume battery.

There are many settings that may or may not affect stability, power consumption, speed ...

So whatever your decision is, remember to google about CPU and GPU settings (like overclocking, undervolting, schedulers) for finding best way to tweak your phone without bricking it.

btw. I use boeffla kernel and I have already managed to make it unstable (laggy, reboots etc...). Now I have found settings to run apps faster (I hope :D)

NOTE: I don't mean boeffla is best - it is just one option and according OP: " Therefore I recommend you to choose either stock kernel or Boeffla-Kernel as the PhoeniX kernel hard enforce permissive mode and break the suhide method."

Btw,do i need to delete original xxx.options.prop from the "xxx.no limits " zip? And if i do,what is the best app for it?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] RamHa:
+1 :good:
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xXx:
its exactly like described in the op.

xXx.options.prop always stay in the rom zip abd will be used as a reference for your selected options. If you place a copy of the xXx.options.prop on your sdcard, the xXx.options.prop inside the Rom zip will be ignored and the one on the sdcard will be used instead. So no need to delete the xXx.options.prop inside the rom zip.

Thank you very much for your detailed writing. :good:

Myself im not fan of overclocking, the speed of the phone is eligible (stock speed). Im more fan of battery life but i dont want to suffer the effects of undervolting, just for 1-2% more battery power.

Inside the Boeffla , what guys you recommend as optimal governor/scheduler (governor for not to loose speed but better battery)?

Now i use: Yankactive and scheduler for Internal: Row / External tripndroid

what is the best boeffla config for gaming such as asphalt 8 , MC5 and stuff?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xXx:
I'm not sure if I correctly understand what you are looking for. Are you looking for Systemless Xposed? If yes, just install the rom with xposed enabled and rooting option 2. If you currently already use standard xposed with material design xposed app you can just flash over. If you are still using the legacy xposed installer app make sure you uninstall that first before you reflash the rom for systemless xposed.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] K4P1:
This one is not easy either.

It depends for example do you prefer multitasking or free ROM more.

Some information about governors (most of those aren't supported by current kernels) at: http://ajgupta.github.io/android/2015/01/28/CPU-and-GPU-governors/

And schedulers: http://androidmodguide.blogspot.fi/p/io-schedulers.html

One which covers both governors and schedulers: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1950084

As you can see, requirements will depends what you choose to use: Nee more speed/Battery usage doesn't matter/can be unstable/optimized for multitasking ...

There sure isn't one fits for all :)

I have slight OC (2611), no UV, Performance gov, noop sched for both disks, 2048 readahead buffer. For GPU performance.

I use performance coz I use doze (it really saves battery). There even is a doze editor for editing options for doze (like how long it takes to "start" doze"...)

Hi [MENTION=1030560]xXx[/MENTION],

I will go in next days for Knox tripping and your ROM flashing. If I choose Magisk, and I add modules to magisk disk, will they be erased when I will flash next xXx ROM? If I play with magisk as well, will the next xXx ROM avoid to overwrite it or should I restore it?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xXx:
Flashing the rom will always wipe the system partition first. This means everything what you extra flashed to the system partition after the last rom flash will be wiped and needs to be reflashed again. That's the way it is as I flash the whole system.img and as the rom offers already so many different flashing options that is the best way anyway to manage that.

Nevertheless I could also include Magisk to the rom as well although I don't see any real benefit over chainfires solution right now. We have to see how this cat and mouse game to hide root turns out. Since 2 days for the majority of the users non of the existing solution work anymore. Pokemon still seem to work but Saftynet based apps don't. Topjohnwu stated already that he will kind of reduce efforts in this game and chainfire mentioned that he have different priorities right now. So lets wait what happens.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xXx:

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] fubo73:
I am not interested in neither Pokemon nor Safetynet. Magisk is interesting also because it creates a virtual disk in which you can setup custom modules (XPosed, hosts file from Adaway, ...) without touching system. In this way if you flash a new system (like you do), Magisk will preserve your customizations by simply mounting back the virtual disk. So my question was just if this is feasible with xXx ROM :)
