ALEXIS ROM 8.0 BETA2 IS NOW ONLINE!!!

CHNAGELOG:

Fixed Samsung Cloud FC (Reverted to stock S6 one)

Fixed LTE icon installed without selecting it

Fixed ON/OFF text on switch button installed without selecting it

Allowed Fingerprint after a reboot instead of putting pin/pattern/password

GraceUx enabled by default and reverted to stock icons

Optimized a lot battery life and reduced micro lags

Fixed Air Message with Stock Messages App

Fixed Samsung Print

Reverted to Alexis 7.7 csc folder, now it should be better

Improved script installation, added sdcard permission fix and updated busybox by [MENTION=1143630]osmosis[/MENTION]

THIS IS CALLED BETA, BUT IT IS KINDA STABLE, I WANT TO ADD ONLY SOMETHING NEW FOR IMPROVE YOUR TOUCHWIZ EXPERIENCE, LET ME KNOW IF THIS IS GOING WELL!

ADVICES FOR HAVE BEST EXPERIENCE:

- Clean install this time is recommended

- Keep the ROM more stock possible, sometimes Note7 Apps could give some lags/bugs

- Find the 1060 Fonts mod here

- If you select Google Assistant don't update Google App or you will lose Google Assistant

- Try to don't use Xposed, it could be the first cause for your bugs

- Keep Stock kernel if you don't want Private Mode/Viper, it gives best performance and battery

- If you want Private Mode/Dolby use any custom kernel

-If you have any problem with Accessibility Settings with apps like Greenify, install from Extra Package: Accessibility functions, Google Assistant and S-Voice

- If anyone wants VOLTE working should select "IMS" in Extra Package and flash his country csc removing feature.xml added by me by default. (If this won't work, I don't know what to say because I can't test it with my carrier)

HOW TO INSTALL:

Flash Alexis Rom 8.0 Beta 2 zip

Flash Alexis Rom 8.0 Extra Package

Reboot

First Complete Setup

If you want Nougat SystemUI: DON'T SET THE FINGERPRINT WITH OLD SYSTEMUI

Go into Recovery and Flash NougatUI_For Alexis Rom 8.0

Select the UI that you want and later reboot

Now you can set fingerprint without having any issue!!!

[Galaxy S6 Android Development] AlexisXDA:
Oh my bad :(
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] zoUphd2:
Haha nooo my friend it was sarcasm? i just want to say how fast are u!!

You can sleep some hours if you want ? we never stop to ask for more and more.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] khanvict90:
alexis can i dirty install beta 2 over beta 1 ?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] morad23:
alexis

acm limit exceeded can u tell why this happen ? when i try to make a call it give me this massage ..

it try different roms ! but it happens only here ! any idea maybe ?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] RDDraco:
Might just be me but after dirty flashing beta 2 over beta 1 the grace ui is gone (atleast my tiles are back to the normal ones) And rounded doesn't work as well it seems but this was on a clean install with beta 1 as well.

As well quick connect stays enabled in the dragged status bar even when toggled off.

Great rom getting better and better.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] same-xx:
Battery still useless.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] khanvict90:
why dont you use greenify it helps me alot just freeze everything like apps you dont use and some system apps and still working great and alot better than before but if alexis can do something about battery life why not just to use it till he fix battery ?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] same-xx:
Battery was good a couple versions back. There is no point use xposed to freeze apps. If I need to start installing more apps to get 1h more battery, I'll change rom or kernel, depending witch one is the cause. Odexing this rom was not maybe a best of choice, but it's interesting to see if alexis get this ever working properly. There is a reason why there is so little odexed modded roms.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] FakeSmile:
Actually for me this is the best battery/ perfomance friendly rom for my G925F. I tried almost every rom for s6 and s6 edge and this one rocks.A little lack of features, but as i see this will be "fixed". I don't know what you are complaining of. The battery life in this rom is better than stock... Not much, but it's an improvement. I didn't tried the rom before version 7.8, but it won't be 1 hour SOT difference or sure.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] garthybarthy:
For me it was better as deodexed rom, more responsive, less lag.

I flashed 8.0 beta1 last night on a clean install and with no apps installed it seemed very sluggish. I will return if it ever goes back to being deodexed as 7.8 was amazing.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Medel-Silver:
7.8 is odexed too, and it works like a charm, so odexed is not the reason for bad battery with 8.0, and the reason for more deodexed roms is because deodexed is more easy to customize, no more, no less.

Regards.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] vtdung2305:
I updated rom version 8.0. But app AcDisplay not found. Please guide active this app. Thanks !!!
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] markrudling:
It's in display under settings
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] AlexisXDA:
For this I said that clean install is needed
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] AlexisXDA:
Wtf, you can't test the battery usage after only one cycle, is known that first cycle is bad.... Just wait..
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] AlexisXDA:
Guys, good morning, I'm looking last messages and are all referred to the difference between odex and deodex

I faced the lags on odex version, especially on 8.0 Beta1, on 7.8 was only micro lags, the beta 1 was the worse

But why guys don't you try the new Beta??? I find it a lot more stable than previous beta in terms of battery and performance..

[Galaxy S6 Android Development] garthybarthy:
I'll give beta 2 a try later, hopefully an improvement on beta 1 like you said. Thanks Alexis.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] andydec:
I don't have any problems with this ROM 7.8. No extra package or xposed installed.

For me the best! thx Alexis!
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] AlexisXDA:
Ok lol, thanks for answer but I need a report about this new 8.0 beta2
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] rwonderz:
i'll report back

thank you for the quick beta update :)
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Warrenforfree:
8.0 beta2 is much better compare to beta1. did it with dirty flash.. i'am still observing since i flash it 4 hours ago. but an improvement over beta1.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] andydec:
The beta is based on the 7.8 so what? My answer to you question https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=70347241&postcount=5590
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] AlexisXDA:
Yes you are right, but on beta I changed more than what there is in 7.8

So thanks for your answer about it
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] RDDraco:
Ok thanks will do it later. Aren't that much of an issue.

Performance and battery seem fine but still on first cycle.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] khanvict90:
how do you guys do it when you have to clean install rom only backup the apps+data whit titaniumbackup or what or is their a other way to do it and what about settings just manualy set it up ?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Warrenforfree:
what i always did is back all my user apps and data(don't backup system apps, ever) with titanium backup. in that way i can clean install a rom and restore all my user app with data and able to setup the phone in less than an hour.. that's the fastest way i think(IMO).
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] khanvict90:
Oh thanks man than it is good how i do it its the same way you are doing it just want it to know hehe thanks man!! :highfive:

[Galaxy S6 Android Development] FakeSmile:

[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Floris-k:
Same problem here with 7.8.

Checked the battery optimiaztion settings and excluded whatsapp.

Ultra power mode are turned off etc etc.

Uninstalled and install Whatsapp, set all permissions.

Nope of it helps.

I use Whatsapp Web at work, so I do not have to hold the phone.

Thus the app is constantly in sleeping mode and not receiving messages :(
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] AlexisXDA:
Could be whatsapp related guys, check what says whatsapp community
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] AlexisXDA:
Yes I will try to fix it
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] xferpa:
i can't reposition the Screenshot buttton at toggles statusbar, when i click EDIT, the Screeshot button just vanish

[Galaxy S6 Android Development] hektsepulveda:
Thank you so much for this ROM, Alexis! It's awesome.

I had 7.2 and I clean installed 8.0 beta1 yesterday and it was really good. I just dirty flashed beta 2 and everything is working correctly. Battery is much better at least it was on beta1, I will report later after I get time to test the beta2.

Btw, when I dirty flashed I got constant errors about "Contacts Storage stopped working" and "com.process.acore stopped working", so I just had to delete the data of contacts and contacts storage and all the errors went away. Just if anyone gets this problem too, lol.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] sigasolau3@gmail.com:

[Galaxy S6 Android Development] khanvict90:
will their be a version that we dont have to clean install ?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] AlexisXDA:
Surely
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Floris-k:
ok so hoping to fix Whatsapp issue with a new fresh install I am installing Alex 8 beta2.

I have chosen:

Clean install

Alexis Surround mod

Alexis black theme with grace ui

Everything is running smoothly.. It goes to 100% and gives the message "First reboot may take a few minutes etc".

But THEN:

sdcard fix premissions script

Mounting..

Setting data/media to media_rw and fixing

Statusbar is at 20% and that's it... It's doing nothing else.

Already waited for about 3-4 minutes. Then did a reboot into recovery with the buttons.

Did everything all over again and now it is stuck 5+ minutes on 20%

What to do now? Go back to 7.8. ?

Edit 14:57

After 10 minutes waiting I rebooted and choose the default theme.

Same result.. Script is stuck at 20%

Edit 15:05:

With standard theme is installs after +- 12 minutes

Let me try again with grace black theme :)

Edit:15:35

It is installed with black theme, but supersu is missing.

Cannot grant Titanium backup permissions to recover apps.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] AlexisXDA:
Here I tried with all themes and takes 20 seconds, selct clean install in aroma

[Galaxy S6 Android Development] khanvict90:

Hey buddy, nice work, V. 8B2

Some glitches so far.

Speech To Text is not responding.

So Accessibility can't be figured out.

Missing SuperSU

Thanks for your kind efforts & your time.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] AlexisXDA:
Thanks mate

So superdu could because:

You changed kernel

You wiped data after installation

Maybe you didn't face out that it is in settings app lol

Could be fixed reinstalling it through recovery

So for Text to speech, you need to select in aroma:

Accessibility functions

Google Assistant

S-Voice
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] meniawy:
Thanks buddy for quick reply,

Actually i installed SuperSU app from Google Play and was not rooted.

Already flashed the latest update 79.

I did flash Accessibility functions, S Voice and Google Assisstant, still the same. :crying:
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] AlexisXDA:
Oh my bad, then I will look into it when I have time, sorry again
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] meniawy:
I fixed, flashing dirty again with same steps. Few days will report to you the performance. Thanks buddy.

I got the newest version. Why does my location keep being turned on? So annoying
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] bankgg:
Faced this in BETA 2 too. Have seen some videos in YouTube showing it happens because of XposedFramework installed. So are the framwork's files included in the BETA 2?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] AlexisXDA:
Don't use xposed
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] AlexisXDA:
No, they aren't
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] bankgg:
Then, do you have any ideas about this? Because I've searched and found only Xposed-related so far, which I haven't installed.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] AlexisXDA:
Yes I have this issue, tested right now

Damn, I will try to see into this problem hoping that snapchat hasn't changed anything
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] bankgg:
I just went to BETA 2 yesterday, and it didn't work. Before that I used BETA 1, and Snapchat ran well. Just for your information :)

Try Arrow launcher, free by Microsoft,

It has double tap to sleep.

Nova launcher as well, but paid version.

Or All in One Gesture App.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Guitos30:
Hi alexis.

I just installed the new version last night..

So far so good. It seems faster and smoother...

No FC's and your new theme is awesome.

Thanks!
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Darell3:
From what I've read around, the login issue is related to Xposed if not Root permissions. What i've done to combat this was login to snapchat on a unrooted/stock firmware, backed it up with titanium backup, flash my desired rom/kernel then restored the backup. Works like a charm :good:
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] bankgg:
Oh, I suddenly remembered that I did have Titanium Backup of Snapchat. So, I restore the app data and it works now lol. It's not called a solution BTW.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] khanvict90:

[Galaxy S6 Android Development] XDAGalaxyFan:
Accessibility Functions.

I have a question about a little issue I have with this ROM, hoping anyone can solve this. So, the problem is that I want to use some apps that requires Accessibility Functions. When I try to turn them ON I have the message that the universal button is not compatible with the language of the device, then I press "Activate" and the complete Settings app dies. Can anyone tells me what happened? I checked Accessibility Functions in the Aroma selector.

PD: Alex, thanks for the awesome ROM, I have been using it since de Beta 2 was published and I really like your work. Greetings from Mexico. :svetius:
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] gilsol:

[Galaxy S6 Android Development] masteruniverse:
Which Kernel are you use for this Rom? Stock Kernel or other Custom Kernels?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Iluvatar2000:
Same issue here.

Great ROM!

I have an idea of what can be added to the alexis Rom control.

1)scroll friction- like in the xui mod for xposed

2)enable seconds in clock in statusbar

3)network traffic in the middle of the statusbar

And try to make your Rom compatible to xposed:D
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Soofi.saad:
For the people with the Snapchat issue, just uninstall Xposed, log in Snapchat, and then reinstall Xposed.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] siedenburg:
Is there going to be a new version/beta this weekend? I don't want to build pressure but i want to know if i can flash the beta2 now or if i should wait a bit.

Till now i'm still on 7.7 and today after about 6h (and some more usage) i still have 86% left. I hope with beta 2 (or perhaps b3/rc1...) to reach the same results^^
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] bankgg:
The latest version has the issue even if Xposed is not installed.
