Beta 4 working nice on GT- i8260 version.

- Now the screen is activated with the home button.

- Camera working perfectly.

- Led flash as flashlight running.

- A bit of lag in the initial configuration.

- Boot after flashing and every reboot takes quite a while.

- And the boot screen appears as the attached image (yes, I did it with Paint :cool:)

Everything else is wonderful, great job! Thank you!

-edit: random reboots still happening

Anyone root this ROM and flashed xposed ?
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] TheAndroidMods:
For root unlock developer settings and go in "root access" click and tap in "App e ADB". For xposed flash the zip (THE ZIP IS ARM SDK 23) https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3034811 and wipe cache and dalvik cache, reboot system and wait 30 minutes for boot. And install apk of xposed 3.1.1 (I do not know if it works in beta 4).
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] chyri1:
Only here the boot started to take longer in beta 4? And the boot screen duplicated the device name?
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] TheAndroidMods:
Yes startup takes longer and we all have the duplicate screen

Hi I got cm 11 lag fix reply. But I have switched to cm 13. The ROM is little bit smooth. I used bluebooth fix (root) app and xposed bluethooth module. For only a minute I was able to connect to my other phone xolo q700s (cm-13 stable costume ROM is install on it) and I transfer 1 mb file the transfer was successful. But after that the galaxy core shutdown unexpectedly and now I cannot boot to cm 13. My device is soft brick I am again installing cm 11.

Thankx in advance

Random reboots are still there in this ROM in Beta 4...
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] TatataUlloa:
Front camera is working for me too. And randoms reboots happen every time I overcharge the ram memory
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] TatataUlloa:
I flashed Xposed framework from recovery and installed from app, but after an hour and half of reboot phone was still on bootloop on both occasions. Fix it by flashing xposed uninstaller zip.

Tried to flash Beta 4 (3 was working). Wiped everything and flashed CM and OpenGapps at the same time. It took 20 minutes to finish the startup and start optimizing Google Play Services but it couldn't do it. So, I wiped everything again (system, data, caches). When I was going to flash it again, I was shocked because all of my files were gone! I hope that I don't have that much of data there (most of my files were in my own sdcard). But if this flash fails too, it will be really bad because my backups were there.
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] chyri1:
I've tested it now, and it just takes a while to start, and sometimes bootloop happens. When it starts, it does not turn on for too long, less than 15 minutes ... Going back to beta 3 until this is resolved.
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] TatataUlloa:
I do the same with the data, but what it did was change the path of the internal storage from /storage/emulated to /storage/emulated/0. Check it
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] silverchairbg:
Thanks for bringing MM to our device. I have 3 questions:

- how is battery time compared to stock rom?

- how is memory utilization compared to stock (now I have around 200 Mb free with 4.1.2)

- how is performance compared to stock rom?

Thanks

[Samsung Galaxy Core.] pranil21:
battery drain issue is still there. Its 1% per 1 minute whether you use or mobile is on standby

memory utilization is better than stock rom and cm13 is fast as compared to stock

but if unfortunately you get randoom reboot then it takes atleast 5 mins to boot. Camera is working perfectly front n back both are working only the problem is battery drain which is still there in beta 4. Overall rom is working perfectly.

Beta 4 is better than stock and other beta versions..
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] prabhjot368:
guys i have a solution for random reboots. i am not sure that it will work for you or not .. just try ramexpander and make swap ram around 200-250 mb .. this rom supports it .. then check if you face random reboots or not .. i hope it will work for you all :fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] hameedfayas:

follow my steps:-

1. First make backup of your rom using twrp recovery (select everything when u are makeing a backup)

2. Delete every thing from sd card except your back up and rom and gapps.

3.after this go to recovery and select wipe option and then advance button tick ervery thing there you can see but un tick external sd card in which your back up and rom gapps are saved.

Now hit or slide to start the wiping process.

4.after that u will see a notification on top that no os is installed on this device.

5.now go to install option and install cm 13 zip file and gapps

6.this time u will not find any space problem.

Thank u.

I am currently on stock touchwiz and I am planning to flash beta 4 for the first time on my galaxy core. I have some questions.

1. Advanced wipe is forbidden as mentioned in OP. So before flashing beta 4, should I perform just simple wipe?

2. Which recovery should I use to flash the beta 4, the old or the new?

3. Can I someone please guide how to use gapps-config file to remove some stock apps(such as browzer)? I mean what to write?

I am new to this flashing scene. Help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] Sheref:
you can use old and new twrp recovery, but new twrp is recommended. In my case old twrp works fine.

I wipped Data,system,cache and also dalvik-cache, i got no problems while flashing. The Rom working fine with me except the Bugs.
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] ramsut:
Thanks ?. Do you know anything about gapps-config?
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] TheAndroidMods:
Flash the PICO gapps after you flash the rom and do a simple wipe;)
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] Sheref:
No buddy
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] ramsut:
Hmmm, OK. Thanks.

I am going to use pico package either way. I read gapps-config guide but didn't understand it, so thought should ask about it. No problem, will proceed without it.

Thank you and God bless the developers of this awesome rom and the recovery.

About the Beta 4, flashed it last night. But I am facing some issues. Phone randomly reboots nearly every hour. Every time phone goes off, it takes 20-30 minutes to reboot completely. Also don't know why, I am not able to make or receive calls.

Are previous builds more stable than the beta 4?

Hello, Beta 3 is more stable but the camera does not work. Do you have the model i8262 or 8260? I ask about your problem with the calls

[Samsung Galaxy Core.] efex09:
Which recovery you are using.

This recovery works fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] Letzen:
Remove format command in updater-script in zip, then manually wipe system, data and cache and dalvik. After that, flash the zip.
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] ramsut:
I have I8262. When I initiate the call, the dialer appears for a moment and then call just cuts off and similar happens while receiving the call. Random reboots occur every hour or so. Every reboot takes nearly 25-30 minutes to completely switch on the phone. (Also don't know if it makes any difference or not, I didn't wipe /system before flashing, just normal factory reset.)
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] pouya1345:

Here is how I install in on my device:

1. Download xposed apk and zip.

2. Install xposed framework apk.

3. Grant root permission (I use supersu)

4. Open it and go to settings.

5. Set it to disable resource hook

6. Power off

7. Flash the zip.

*Make sure to backup your rom first before install it. I hope it will also works on your device. Goodluck.

Can you provide links for that? And how much time will it take to reboot?

Did you use the ROM lightly? I mean, just a few social media apps, a launcher and a keyboard, and the XDA app?
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] SHARING IS GOOD:
I took it from this thread:

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3034811

and I don't really remember how long it took to reboot. But as far as I remember, it was less that 30 minutes. Because I tried to install xposed framework many times, and all of them gave me bootloops for more that an hour each, except the last one.

Yes, still lightly. I only install 14 apps and still waiting for free wifi to install the other apps. But before this, I also experience random reboots even my installed apps less that 14 apps.

Can you tell me that did u wiped cache/dalvik cache too? And for me it didn't asked for root permission in xposed installer.
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] SHARING IS GOOD:
Don't know. I only ever use version 4 and 4.1. So I am unable to compare it to version 3.

And I think, I got lesser random reboot because I don't install much apps.

No, I didn't. But since in CM11, I always have a problem with built in superuser, sometimes built in superuser doesn't grant root access for certain apps. So I always install chainfire supersu to handle root permission. Using supersu, when I open xposed for the first time, there will be pop up that ask us to grant root access or not.
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] Swissfyre:

[Samsung Galaxy Core.] Mohammed_M.:
Hi everybody ,

I've been using beta 4 and 4.1 since issuance ,and I faced those problems :_

1_When you flash the " flashable zip of exposed" it takes around 30 mins , but is has successfully installed in the end

2_random reboots still there but less than before (in beta 4) , I used selinuxmodchanger app but without avail , I used swapper to get more RAM space and reboots still happens. When I run clash royale and some other games they work for a little while the the phone reboots its self .( just boom beach working well and sometimes it closes unexpectedly :eek: )

3_reboot still take pong time but generally its less than beta 4 .

4_video recording is working but when I complete the recording a notification appears that saying your video us ready to share ,when I click on it the video player says "you can't play thus video " its not a big deal for me but just saying :).

5_I faced lags in video playing(the voice working well but the picture lags) I don't know why but when I made the possessor frequency 700Hz the lags had gone ( for me this is the most important problem :crying:)

Ps:when I try to take a screenshot to boom beach and other apps like it I face random reboot too.?

Except all problems above the rom is smooth and very good ,all thanks for everyone working on this rom. I hope my notices will be useful . And I'm waiting for stable version as all the core users do :good::) .

Thank you all again.
