Hello all,
I have been experiencing some freeze-ups on FroyoMod 2.6.0 and was thinking of flashing CM7 RC4 by nadlabak.
If I do end up flashing it, is the performance any better? What about battery life?
Also, is "update-cm-7.0.0-RC4-0.08-11.04.05-Milestone-signed.zip" the file I will need to flash? Or is that only an update?
Thanks in advance!
RC4 is very good. You should try it. The best of all CM7 releases according to me. You apply it just like you applied Froyomod. Place the zip file in openrecovery/updates and apply update in AOR.
I cannot comment on battery life as i have had it only for a couple of hours.
So far so good! I'm liking the different customizations, not much different so far compared to FroyoMod, perhaps a bit zippier.
I'm having issues with the power notification widget in the status bar, it's disappeared on me, but it is enabled in settings. Other than that it all looks very good!
Cm7 seems to have many bugs...
So dare not try....
For froyomod, everything works well except
1. When someone call me, my phone would vibrate for around 10 seconds but with the screen still turning off.
It is nothing to do with the cpu and vsel i set,
The phone dialer and contact list are also very laggy
2. 3d games perform pooer in froyomod compared with shadowmod b3

Just reboot the phone....
Display settings gives me FC
Does anyone have FC when selecting Display settings? Seems to me was working OK right after installing but now I always get FC
EDIT:
Problem found and even partially resolved: issueId=478
I use Email.apk to get access to my corporate Exchange email account, which enforces some policy on my phone that should results in removing restricted screen timeout entries from the Display settings screen, it turned out that the translation files contains less entries than the numeric timeout values which caused an exception (index array out of bound) so I got FC.
A workaround is switching to EN_US language (EN_GB is affected too)

3. serious gps issue. 2.6.0, 2.6.1 and 2.6.1b all these roms do not have working gps, some version showed partial gps activity but no satellite locking at all. developer is working hard on this isse and will bring some solution very soon.
@James91, do you have any version of froyomod 2.6.x with working gps? I am surprised, why have'nt you mentioned here about it in your exceptions?
Experienced some auto reboot. OCed at 800MHz.
I am using cm7 rc 4.1....till now i am loving it......i never thought my milestone can perform this much....lol....try supercharging.....its the best.....

After a full charge, without even touching it, it drains the battery quite fast! Also I've been on a full Charge and not even an hour of screen time and already 65%. And I've only been using Talk and the xda premium app.
My current rom is aokp_galaxysmtd_jb_build-4
I would most appreciate it if any of you would suggest different kernels or roms or something that could help me with this situation.
Get the BetterBattery Stats app from the market. It gives a much more detailed view on what is eating your battery. I had a similar problem and helped me out with finding a bad app running in the background.

Thank you very much, I'm going to try it and let you know.
EDIT: I used the app, and it doesn't seem like any apps are running in the background other then the default apps such as calander, google search,clock, etc...
Likely it's just my faulty rom (AOKP). I will consider changing it. Thanks for the help btw!
I am running DarkyROM with a semaphore kernel. Really fast and great battery life.

Make sure to also check CPU states in the BetterBatteryStats app. When not doing anything your phone should go into deep sleep. If it doesnt, you can check the Kernel Wakelock en Partial Wakelocks in that app to see what is keeping your phone awake.
PS: I'm using X-Bean 3.0 rom with Semaphore kernel 2.6.1 and very happy with it.
MIUI 2.10.12 ported from MIUI Passion.
I spent a fair lot of time trying to find the best MIUI so suit our HTC. And trying different methods for diffing and mods, from 2.9.21 til 3.1.11, porting from crespo, maguro, passion, P500 etc. This is the only version i could get to have most of the features working.
Since i don't ask for any contribution or donation, so for whoever is not happy with it, don't use but don't criticize my work trying to find reasons why not to use it.
A thanks is enough if think it worth.
If you want to change it, modified it, and so on, do it, no permission needed.
I'm not a full (probably not even partly) developer so i won't be able to answer to your questions on a daily basis.
Use it at your own risk

Hi, on MIUI all apps are on the screen(s), no apps menu. T'hat's how MIUI works (if this is what you asked for). You can put icons on top of each other and this will create a folder icon with all apps you want to group and you can name it i.e apps. When installing a new app, an icon on the screen will be created automatically
If you ask about managing apps, it is in settings like usual (choose full settings to display, not common settings)

This one is better, by quite a bit. It's way more usable. I've noticed better battery life and faster keyboard input as compared to zeubea's CM10...
no bugs so far, i'll report if i find any. (apart form the system space which is next to empty)
it runs very smoothly
but how can we get 512MB RAM???? and we can't have enough free ram.. just around 30mb?
Hey thanks for this great rom. I have asked a friend to try this rom out since she has a htc legend and I don't. She is very happy with the rom but she reported back two problems.
1. wifi does not turn on (this began to happen right after she setup an APN for her gprs network) (also she tried putting the phone in airplane mode.. turning the wifi on and then rebooting.. didnt work)
2. vpn doesnt seem to be working anymore. is this the case for everyone else also?
thanks again for your hard work mate

Hi,
Yes, the memory shown under "About phone", "RAM and "Total" is wrong. The "Available" figure is accurate for both internal and SD card. These totals are coming from ported
Is there a fix for the wifi issue?
Everything indeed works.Great rom.
Lockscreen will be laggy if not changed to one without spectrum. Rest seems to work good, if not better than on other roms. Testing battery life atm.
Hey guys, a lot of you have problems with Battery Life right ? One Problem is, that your phone cant go into deep sleep right ? Its because of some bloatwares
My phone was always in 51mhz ... so i decided to freeze Google Maps, Email, Emailwidget and Disables MLT and remove MLT apk, After that I had tons of deepsleep !
You can freeze it during Titanium Backup or Link2sd (both free on Google Play)

Its a big no for that..The " baseband_xmm_wakelock " is from the kernel itself, i mean stock kernel...Ive been playing around to solve it but apparently it still there unless using custom kernel, which im using roight now iodak kernel, that doesnt have that baseband wakelock...
I found a way to reduce battery consumption with stock...In stock V20a, the LGMLT.apk doesnt exists (in my case)...So i just frozen almost all unused system apps, enable EcoMode within hidden function...And by altering the fast dormancy table databases...Im able to get almost a day with battery from 100% - 5%....

Some user on v20a reports that it does gives extra battery juice and some not..But the thing is, it it function to be like that, no matter

For your information, that version in Play Store doesnt work with Jellybean...As the last time it was updated is mid 2012...Now mid 2013...
I'll post the command to get it running later on...
Anyway you could obtain the same effect using ds battery saver, this block the connection request from the phone and starts it only when you decide it
It saves a lot of battery.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rootuninstaller.batrsaverpro
I guess an app of this should be included in the phone since the O4X is programmed to drain a lot of battery if you don't stop connection attempts.

Hello Boys and Girls,
Everyone at XDA loves AOSP based projects. However AOSP is designed only for the Nexus devices. For most other devices, a significant ammount of extra code needs to be added for them to run properly. For Qualcomm devices, most of this extra code is supplied by the Code Aurora Forums. Here you can find a variant of AOSP that is not only designed specifically for Qualcomm based devices, but it also includes various tricks and enhancements.
So today I'm introducing a little project I've been cooking up for myself, which might also be interesting for other Xperia SP users.
It's called recaf - adding the CAF optimizations back into your AOSP rom.
This is now based on Android 4.4 KitKat. On the surface, it looks almost exactly like pure AOSP as provided by Google. You wouldn't know just by looking at it, but under the surface there are lots of changes to dalvik, the frameworks and the hardware drivers to massively improve battery life.
However, pure AOSP sometimes feels a little bit featureless compared to advanced roms such as CyanogenMod, so I have included a few basic tweaks that I feel make life easier when using an AOSP-like rom:
CyanogenMod camera app - because AOSP camera app is rubbish
CyanogenMod cLock widget - because it's actually pretty nice
Integrated Superuser - it's right there in the settings menu!
exFAT and NTFS - needed for larger SDCards
Multicoloured notification lights - AOSP gives us white lights only
Quick settings - easily accessible by swiping down the right side of the status bar
Advanced reboot - Always available in the power menu
ADB and SU security - root access is disabled by default
So without further delay, here is your download link:
recaf-4.K1-20131212-huashan.zip
recaf-4.K1-20131207-huashan.zip
recaf-4.K1-20131202-huashan.zip
recaf-4.K1-20131129-huashan.zip
recaf-4.K1-20131127-huashan.zip
I assume you will also want to install GAPPS, the version I recommend is the FULL version created by the Paranoid Android team from THIS THREAD.
For your first install you will need to flash the boot.img from inside the zip - SELinux changes for Android 4.4 will cause the zip to fail on other recoveries.
If you want to chat about recaf, join the Freenode IRC chat room #recaf.

Known Major Bugs
Location services are currently broken for certain apps. fixed in 4.K1.
GSM data sometimes (very rarely) randomly disconnects until reboot - I need help to determine what causes this. If you can reliably reproduce this, let me know.
Android RunTime (ART) will fail at boot time fixed.
Known Minor Bugs
WiFi does not connect to WPA secured networks. WPA2 security works as expected.
For Superuser to work you need to change ADB access to apps and adb (in developer settings)
Language does not change in some parts of Android, most notably the Settings app. Most other apps work fine and I didn't touch the language code, so this is a CAF bug I will need to fix.
Custom notification colours for missed calls and voice mail don't work
LED on charging sometimes gets stuck when disconnected until reboot.
These are features, not bugs
Facebook sync cannot be activated.
Quick Settings poll
I created a poll about Quick Settings (discuss it there)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2550027
some feedback,
flashed rom+gapps= setup wizard FC
flashed rom=boot then reboot then flash gapps= profit
seems like integrated SU is not working properly for me though

One question though, did you manage to fix the "Phone" app battery drain issue?
Ahh yes the setup wizard will crash due to the above bug. You can skip it by pressing the four corners of the screen, start top left then go clockwise.

@adfad666 thank you so much for sharing this rom! I have decided to switch to this one as my daily driver, pure stock 4.3 jellybean just the way i like it battery life is significantly better than cm10.2 and lag is non existent. Looking forward to future updates/bug fixes and of course AOSP kitkat roms!
Bug report: The notification light doesnt seem to work when charging via usb but works for notifications. Also, even though ive changed the notification lights to custom color values it still blinks white
ive attached a logcat below hope it helps.
Going to test this out as I'm currently running PAC and my battery ran out in 6 hours with 1 hour tops screen time. Hope this is better like the previous comment stated. Will post a small review afterwards.
Ok first off: battery life seems to be A LOT better than CM10.2/PAC.
Doesn't have SU installed by default, so I had to flash it.
Seems to be smoother than PAC. Might be placebo effect though.
1 question as well. Is there a way to enable facebook sync? I did it on CM10.* with this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2064859, but the CM10.2 apk doesn't work with AOSP

Super user is for sure installed, but I think you need to enable developer settings for it to work. It's the exact same code as for CyanogenMod ( I didn't even fork it I just link to their projects) and I think super user is hidden and disabled there until developer mode is enabled. I'll add the code like CM has to hide it unless developer mode is enabled.

undoubtedly the best work so far
the ram and the battery is what most pleased in this rom
but heating in many aspect
I did return to the stock expecting some solution
or next actulizacion
SuperUser is working fine for me .
-I've some force closes in Drive app; but i disabled this app so the force closes are gone.
-I suffer a reboot when i start the camera for first time -> The screen turns purple and like "melted" and after that turns off. And later turns on again (reboot). Note: i've this bug in CM10.1 and CM10.2 when i was playing HD videos.
