Yeah,this has always been an issue with this ROM. It is something I need to look into. I'm not fully sure why this is yet.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Sunn76:
I'll try something out when I get back from Munich this afternoon, I'll report back

[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Oleggluk:
This firmware I did not like. Very raw, nothing new, small setting, more does not work .... The only plus to work very fast. Why do not you use CM13? The best that is now. Is it possible to make the CM13 with the new libs. :confused: (Google Translate)
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
I am just trying to get things sorted with this ROM and Slim 7 for now. Once I do I will build CM13 with the MM libs. My vendor commits are on github if someone wants to build CM13 with the MM libs I've got working til now. Otherwise I will at some point,but I'm using this ROM as I've built it and incorporated things that I like. I find that pretty much everything I use works fine.

Best Network results I had lately was with the new Arab A6 update. And I am quit sure that a partially could get something going playing around with different modems. What modem did you use in this Rom here? I can't check it right now.

Gesendet von meinem SM-G800F mit Tapatalk
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
All the MM libs are from the Arab update. I will have to have a little look into the modem...

Very strange thing,I was just browsing sammobile. Did they remove the MM update or am I blind?! Very weird to me if so.

Edit I'm indeed blind haha
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Sunn76:
Can't check, suffering the bad network sitting in the train to Munich bug ?

But if so I can pass you a Google Drive link to the Arab Rom if you need
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Appreciate that, but it's there. I just needed to look harder [emoji3]

I have it anyway, I was just curious. Lol
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Oleggluk:
And what libs are responsible for calls and mobile Internet in 6.0.1? I want to try to replace the CM13 :silly: (Google translation)
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Ril or libril I assume handles that all. I could be wrong though. With that comes other dependencies though that also need to be updated more than likely. There is a very good chance that by simply updating libril and dependencies that it will break other things. This is the next thing I want to look into as I'm still using the KK libs for this due to robotic voice with the LP libs. I'm curious if this is solved with MM libs.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Oleggluk:
I changed various libs, but the result is deplorable. Whether or not a network or does not see the SIM card. :eek:

I hope you will soon take it. This is the most important part of the smartphone. (Google Translate)
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Sunn76:
I agree on that

Gesendet von meinem SM-G800F mit Tapatalk
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
I will try soon when I have a fair bit of free time. I agree that this is a very important part of the phone,but I am pretty sure that this will also be the most difficult to get working properly.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] angomania:
I would have a few suggestions for the next update:

- I dont like MiXplorer, I prefer Total Commander but thats my opinion. Think it would be better to put a AOSP file manger back.

- Also missing is a music player. Whats about the AOSP MUSIC player?

- an email client is also missing. Think the last working AOSP was 6. xxxx

- also Substratum does not need to be preinstalled. If You like it, you can install it from the appstore

- Because of the known camera problems, Open Camera would be a good alternative for a preinstalled camera app

That is just a suggestion. So you have a complete running system after flashing the rom.

Did you read the main thread of this Rom?

First page first post?

Gesendet von meinem SM-G800F mit Tapatalk
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
I understand this, however I will most likely keep things as they are for a few reasons. First, anyone can easily uninstall any app I've added that they don't like with a root uninstaller. I will however, as mentioned in the main post, but I've yet to do, add a zip with the removed apps.

As far as other things, everyone has their favorite apps for music, browsing and so forth. I love miXplorer personally, but again it is easily uninstaller if you don't want it. Substratum is there because if you want to use layers well it's what there is really.

I use this ROM as my main driver, so I'm going to keep things as I want it as well without completely "personalizing" it. I do not personally use stock email or music player. So I will just leave it to the user to install what they wish as far as those. I appreciate the feedback either way.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Pat750:
Wanted to say thanks some weeks ago for introducing us to MiXplorer but always forgot.

Well...I really do like it, the pdf viewer, the dark themes, two windows, german translation...really nice.

It was a little bit confusing how to install themes and so on but I liked (and trusted) MiXplorer from the start and it has replaced

all the other exploring apps (all but Total Commander which I use more than 15 years now).

Wish y'all some quiet days...
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Totally agree with this. It takes a bit to set up and theme and what-not,but once you do it is simply fantastic in my opinion.

Does BT audio work without stuttering with the new libs?
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
I have no idea. I have since added a few more MM libs since I've built this. I would be curious to know if BT audio works properly with this release though,so if anyone who had the stuttering problems would post the results here I'd be grateful.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] chancenvergeber:
I just had some time and tried it...still the same stuttering.

Do other people have the same problem or is it just my phone? Could I have a hardware problem?
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Knoose:
I will try it when i get the chance. Will post back!
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
That's a shame, but all of the Samsung audio MM libs are not added to this build. I was trying to get some more going,but its proven a real pain. I will try more, but it may require someone with more skill and knowledge of patching certain files.

That said there was a commit for some other device I came across that supposedly fixed the BT stutter. I will look into that more.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] chancenvergeber:
I never used the stock ROM, I immediately switched to a custom ROM.

Maybe, I should install the Samsung ROM and find out how the BT behavior is.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Perhaps,Although I do tend to think that its not a hardware issue. It most likely is due to custom ROMS. For whatever reason the audio part has proven to be tricky to get right..the robotic voice,mic not working after calls and so on.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Exxonvaldez:
It is a Rom issue. I use the bliss Rom and Bluetooth stutter went away with the latest update. I think version 6.4.

I think what needs to be done to get a fully working, slim and snappy Rom is to take stock and strip everything unnecessary off. To integrate parts of stock into another Rom will take more time.

Gesendet von meinem kminilte mit Tapatalk
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Interesting. I wonder why it works on bliss. I suppose it has to be the bliss sources as the device specific sources used are mostly identical. I will look into a few things.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Oleggluk:
People. Comrades. Focus on one thing. Chasing two hares, you will catch neither. Life is important. But if you can, do 13 cm with new libs. CM died, Left a bit. (Google translation) :o
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
He he,very true. The only real thing I'm working on at the moment,ROM wise is trying to get more Samsung MM libs working..without much success lately.

I'd have to download the CM13 sources again to build,but it's something I can try to do sometime in the near future.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Exxonvaldez:
My suggestion: take the stock Rom, strip off all the bull**** and we will have a working and snappy 25th mini. Add CM goodness afterwards. What do you think?

Gesendet von meinem kminilte mit Tapatalk
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
That's personally not for me as I really don't enjoy messing with proprietary stuff. Nico_vo has posted a debloated stock ROM. I have used superrs kitchen in the past and would be glad to lend a hand here or there with that project if I have the time and if asked. I just am already focused on too many things android wise. I don't really need another [emoji2]
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Exxonvaldez:
Fair enough. I read the thread about the debloated stock Rom of course. But it still is 1.1 GB!

[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Wow, that is indeed huge. They sure try their best to fill up the system partition as much as possible.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Update

Updated to v1.17. Reverted some MM libs for the time being. I will continue to work on this. Also made a few adjustments to BT to try to solve the stuttering problem. No idea if it will have any effect. It could have made it worse even,so feedback would be great. Other changes as well. They can be found in the main post.

Enjoy!
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] chancenvergeber:
I will try it this weekend.

Thank you for your hard work, I really appreciate it.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Kianouch:
Hi,

Just installed this ROM yesterday and everything's great except one detail : I like the bottom left physical button of my GS5 Mini to do what it used to do meaning :

- short press : OmniSwitch

- long press : Menu (how can I bring up menus in apps which have no incorporated button for this such as Titanium Backup ?)

And same for the return physical button, I had set up long press for "kill task" and have no idea ho to bind this with this ROM.

I installed OmniSwitch as a system app with the zip but no way to bind the button.

I'll try to find if there is a bind key app.

EDIT : Managed to bind a few things with "Buttons remapper (no root)"

Only OmniSwitch missing, 'cause binding it will only bring its menu, not the app itself.

Not so important then. The only issue is now this new app must consume some RAM.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Well, I'm glad you got it mostly sorted out. Maybe someone else has an idea about omni switch as I'm not real sure.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Pat750:
Hi,

you could try the Xposed Modul GravityBox. There you can remap the buttons. But I do not know if one can set apps to open as well. I am not using it at the moment. If you have not used Xposed before please read about how to use it first.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Knoose:
I am experiencing the same 'problem'. Tried to do it the xposed way but it doesnt work out with remapping the buttons. Managed to find a workaround in the pie controls that come with gravitybox. Its working really well for me :).

Hello

I am really missing STK (simtoolkit).

I found that app in original slimrom, extract it, bud i don't know way, howto add it into custom 17 build. Can you please create zip for twrp ?

Thank you

Marcel
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Sorry I've been meaning to add a zip with the removed apps in it. I especially know that some really need the sim toolkit. I was just going to zip up the. apk files, so you would just install them from there. You could extract the. apk like you said you did and install it. Otherwise, I will upload the zip with the apks soon

Edit: Added zip in main post

I don't know if all CM13 user are affected by this problems. I can confirm issue 1 - 4 and also the mentioned battery drain on my side with newest CM version. Updating to MM libs will probably solve many of these issues.

First of all happy new year! Thank you spook for the continued development on our device! I hope we will see more of your appreciated work this year.

Finally got around testing bleutooth audio for a bit. I am still running version 16 and i am not experiencing any stutter. Was streaming audio via mixplorer
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Than you! Thanks for the feedback as well. The BT audio issue perhaps is like many of the problems for our device. That is, some experience it, some don't. I will look into it more at some point... When I have another idea. Glad it works for you though.

Hi

I just installed Stk.app included in zip (it is exactly same, as i extracted from older build.) and i have same issue - there is no simtoolkit in menu. Also, when i recieve smtoolkit sms (from bank), mobl doesn't react.

i tryed to modify your rom by adding that app into /system folder - then simtoolkit works. bud i gos some error in twrp. (just errorcode number, don't know wich.)

i thing, that STK.apk must be in /system folder. Can You please create install script, which install stk.app into /system via twrp ?

Thank you

MArcel
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
OK, this makes sense. Can you try, with a root explorer to do this.

First, uninstall the STK app. Then create a folder in /system/app called Stk. Place the Stk.apk in that folder and restart your phone. See if that will work. If not I will probably just go ahead and add the stk app back next time I build. That was the one app I removed that I was a bit hesitant about because although I don't use it, I know that for some it is necessary.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] BoaRek:
Ahhh!

i just restored my old rom :) but ok, no problem, I'll try it now.

I tryes to do it via adb, but /system was mounted RO, and i was unable to remount it RW.

[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Thank you, I appreciate it! Hopefully that will work. I will probably add the stk back in the next build either way. I will probably do another build next week.

Hello

I just installed it by adb

(

adb shell

mount -o rw,remount,rw /system

mkdir /system/apps/Stk

cp ....

chown ....

mount -o ro,remount,ro /system

but still does't work after reboot :(

edit: now it works.

i also install it by system manager and rebooted.

Thank for assistance !

[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Thanks for the reply. I'm glad it finally seems to work for you!

Edit:

Not that it matters now as it is working for you, but I believe the problem the first time with adb was the command "mkdir /system/apps/Stk" should have been "app" not apps. Either way, glad it's working [emoji3]
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] BoaRek:
Hi again

/system/app vs /system/apps - that was mistype here, in forum.

I made another reinstallation (cause restoring by titanium caused blackscreen and i can't see nothing but shutdown menu), and found "simples solution" - in twrp, there is filemanager, so i copyed my Stk.app from sdcard into /system/app/Stk/stk.app.

After this step, application was in system after installation. (so i didn't need to install it manualy).

THX for all your helps.

anyway, i have another problem.

I use "open camera" camera for makng pictures. This works fine, but when i am in facebook messenger, and try to take a picture (for sending ) phone freezes, and camera stops working. I can see text "sorry, camerais not working right now. You might need to close any other camera apps you have running"

does anyone have same issue ? do you know some fix ?

Ty

[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Exxonvaldez:
At the moment there is only a workaround. Install camera restarter app from the play store. It will restart the camera when it freezes.

We are all waiting for a bug free camera. Hopefully importing the stock libraries will work.

[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Hmm, I thought that the camera issue was "solved" by disabling the stock camera. That's why I left it out of the build. I guess this is not the case then. I am not a big picture taker, so I rarely notice things related to the camera.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] yojoe007:
Hi spookcity - firstly I just want to say thank you for this project and for persisting with it! From my searches there are no other active G800F MM dev projects, and right after the official Samsung release for the device - so it is greatly appreciated. I have read through the thread am about to wipe my stock (ugh) 5.1.1; not even bothering with the official samsung MM - the bloatware is just horrible.

Anyway I saw you wrote that there might be a new build soon, so I thought I would wait until this new one is up - unless it won't be anytime soon, in which case I'll go with what's available. Only real reason is I use the camera fairly regularly :-/

Many thanks,

James
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Hi,

Slim didn't have an update last week. There should be one soon,today I would think. I will try to build today or tomorrow. So it should be soon unless problems arise. Which can happen.

About the camera,I don't take many photos,however it was stated by more than one person that by simply disabling the stock camera that the camera/media server bug was solved. This is why I just went ahead and removed the camera from the builds. It was mentioned here that the camera problem persists,at least by one person. No one else has said anything though. I am curious to know if it is still a problem or not. So if anyone can confirm I'd appreciate it.

[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Thanks guys.Quick question: When you say disabling the gallery do you mean the stock gallery or does one come with the stock camera that you are refering to? Shows how often I use the camera. :D

Just curious because if it is the gallery app and not related to the camera I will remove it from future builds as well.

On a side note,slim did not release an update again this week for slim6. I don't believe that they are discontinuing work on it,but I don't know. Therefore,I will not be updating this week as I previously mentioned.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Sunn76:
Disable the stock gallery as well and replaced it with one from Google. But I am not sure if the issue is only related to the gallery. But it definitely helps ?

Send from here ?
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Knoose:
When i was still on cm13 i installed snap camera and snap gallery because of the camera issues. Kinda kept them with me while migrating through a couple of roms so never really had to use the ones that came with the roms
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
OK, thanks a lot. I will go ahead and remove the stock gallery app from the next build unless people have any problems with that. I don't personally use it anyway. I'll go ahead and add it to the "removed apps" zip.

Hopefully slim will have an update next week.

key backlight

Bonjour!

I want to disable the key backlight. In order to do that automatically, I need to run a script on startup.

#!/system/bin/sh
echo 0 > /sys/devices/virtual/sec/sec_touchkey/brightness
chmod 444 > /sys/devices/virtual/sec/sec_touchkey/brightness

Does somebody know whats needed to get the script executed on boot? The usual /system/etc/init.d or /data/local doesn't seem to work.

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] wogooo:
i dont use slim at the moment, but i thought you can just disable it in options? Otherwise Xposed with Gravity Box :)
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Yeah, I would think that the init.d solution would work,but if not the only thing I can think of off hand is gravity box.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Mikahlo:
Konnichiwa!

Exposed and the modules are a bit much for what I intend to do. Maybe just a sleep of more than 60 sec. is enough before the commands get executed.

The second thing is the home button wakeup. I don't like it and tried messing around with the Generic.kl with no luck so far.

I don't give up yet :) I really like the ROM. It just needs some tiny modifications to fit my personal preferences.

Thank you guys for the answers nonetheless. Now I have a backup plan :good:

arrivederci
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Well, it sounds like you are on the right path. I would be looking at an init.d script as well.. And for the home button wake the generic.kl file. I certainly wish you luck!
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Knoose:
Tried to disable the home button as well :) found no other solution than to use exposed additions before moving up to gravitybox! Hope you will succeed where i failed ;) please let me know if you do!

You could also use the app Night Mode. It has the option to turn key backlight off.

Hi there,

is it somehow possible to extract the original Slim homescreen picture?

Thought it would be somewhere on the ROM...but could not find it anywhere.

The goal is to make the picture al little darker or change it into grey.

The ones from the Internet (searched for more than an hour) are all a little bit modified (top and bottom cut off...).

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Mikahlo:
failed...

nǐ hǎo!

I give up for now. It's definitely not the Generic.kl file. I reduced it to 4 entries cause 4 hw-buttons. With or without the WAKE or WAKE_DROPPED, it don' t work. It' s possible to disable the home button completely but thats not what I wanted.

At least I can turn the backlight of the capacitive buttons off :good:
