[Guest H3ROS]

The easy way is to get an app for it. Take your pick :)

with stock kernel what governor and scheduler you prefer? 

[Guest H3ROS]

Everything at default, since it'll then behave exactly the same as the stock ROM which means good battery life and performance.

 

It sucks that I'm forced to use the stock kernel due to Huawei if I want to deliver a 100% rock solid ROM, but at least the stock kernel isn't that bad. It's actually pretty good. It's just a shame that it's missing some features, but I might be able to work around that problem if I can get it to load some custom modules.

I have a bug that doesn't really bother me but i will inform you xd

Sometimes the lights from the buttons on bottom of the screen (back, home and options) just stay turned off and after a while they will be back to normal

Happened right now while adding a contact from 1 SMS to 1 of my current contacts on my list 

[Guest H3ROS]

That's not actually a bug. The light sensor will make the buttons glow only if you're in a dull or dark area. If you're in daylight though then they won't glow, since they don't need to.

Hey,

 

Scrolling in Shuttle has been okay for me, but I have a lot of custom audio files that don't have album art so maybe that's why. But the reason I use Shuttle over Apollo is because Apollo is kind of buggy in general. Like album art in Apollo doesn't update fast, it's lower quality and you can sometimes end up with the wrong album art displayed in notfications. Shuttle on the other hand looks good and the devs constantly making improvements. I love it's UI animations too :)

 

In some areas I've already spent an hour or two manually copying over translations from newer versions of Android, so I'd like to avoid that. I'll release updates for almost anything as long as someone provides the translations though.

 

 

@ StewieTech

In that case you'll need the latest version of Synopsis as the lowest the stock kernel goes is 196 Mhz. The battery life is still very good though.

 

@ porozex

Weird. I've never had that issue, but having said that I don't run a lot of heavy apps. Having something like Skype, Facebook, Facebook chat and WhatsApp would be bound to run into some issues though.

 

I can easily make Viper unkillable, but if you go to developer options and limit the background process limit to 2 at most does that help? I'm just curious is all, since that should free up more memory.

ofc it will be better. but usually this happens in games or when multitasking :S with swap partition gets better but still in some cases gets killed

I have a bug where i can't use the "Prevent Running Force Closed" Xposed module, it force closes when I start it. It's working on B199 roms, but I don't want to change, can you look into it?
I have a log of the FC, but I don't understand much of it:

[Guest H3ROS]

Well the good news is that I can get it to error myself, so I'll see it I can compile the module and debug it that way. It's ironic though that an app designed to keep apps running after a force close actually force closes itself ^_^

[Guest matteussz_]

Thanks for your help!

[Guest H3ROS]

I reverted a few files to B199 to test things and it still errors. So with the B199 ROM you used, are you sure it's using the latest version of Xposed?

[Guest matteussz_]

Yes, it was the last version, and the ROM was the Essential B199.

[Guest H3ROS]

The error given makes no sense since the reference comes from GravityBox. There's then a NoSuchElementException error which links to TreeMap, but TreeMap matches what's in B199. Also if I use the whole B199 framework then the errors still the same, so at this point I'm looking at the app as the issue and not the ROM.

 

It's supposed to be a module designed for Gingerbread that's untested on everything else. That plus looking at the XDA thread there's been compatibility issues with Huawei in the past.

[Guest Sportfreunde]

How do I optimize battery life? Greenify and Autokiller Memory Optimizer? Will using a CPU control like NoFrills make a difference or should I leave it as is? And is there any way to add a camera to the lock screen? GravityBox doesn't show the option.

 

Nice stable rom, went to this after trying ExpertV4 and Slimkat which were kinda laggy for me and certain things didn't work like Netflix on Expert, seems to be an improvement over FusionX as well.

Edited July 6, 2014 by Sportfreunde

[Guest H3ROS]

Some people will say that Greenify helps, but I like to manage things myself. Like I don't leave mobile data enabled and I'll instead use WiFi with the network set to 2G when at home. Bluetooth and GPS are also turned off 99% of the time too. With that you should have great battery life, certainly better than CM or SlimKat at least.

Edited July 6, 2014 by H3ROS

[Guest matteussz_]

With wifi on at home, and 2G otherwise, bt and gps always off, I usually have at least 6-7 hours of screen time. I don't use any of these apps, I've frozen some system packages with Titanium, and that's it.

[Guest Picvajzmen]

6-7 hours? Thats great. I have around 3h, but on my g510 not y300, and often less then that..

[Guest matteussz_]

It's just with this ROM, with other ROMs I had around 4 hours. But now I'm at ~5 hours of screen time and I still have 54% left.

[Guest Picvajzmen]

Wow, thats great.. So much better battery on y300 compared to g510..

[Guest H3ROS]

Doesn't the G510 have a larger battery than the Y300? I would of thought that it does to make up for the extra screen size and slightly more powerful CPU. My Y300 has a 1950mAh (rated) battery.

 

@ matteussz_

I think I've found the problem. If you change an apps OOM value then the app will crash. You could say it's due to a buggy Xposed app, but the OOM values are loaded via changes Huawei made to the cust partition. Since they're not very important I'll see if I can undo Huawei's changes to the framework so that people don't have to reflash the whole ROM.

[Guest matteussz_]

Thanks, that'd be great, but it seems that this ROM works properly without this module too, so it's not that important.

[Guest lucap00]

I don't use bluetooth calls, so, what is the best kernel for this ROM? Stock, synopsis or cexstel?

G510 battery is 1750mAh, bigger screen and more cpu, that is why it drain battery faster than our Y300

Cexstel give you more settings available, sinopsys is not stable yet
