[ACS][ROM] Phoenix ROM 0.2 & EXT Data

Re: [ACS][ROM] PhoeniX ROM 0.2

Then good news for you, I can port Holo. Don't expect it anytime soon though. I decompiled my framework out of curiosity, I have to do a lot of checking back and forth between numerous xml files, but it should be manageable. Like I said before, theming will only be a side project, not a priority. However, while I still can't currently flash my phone, I see no harm in starting this. ;)

its cool that you can port it, and I agree about theming being a side projrct. Stability is more important to me.

I can work with what I got. Lol

Thanks for all the work you do man. :)

Re: [ACS][ROM] PhoeniX ROM 0.2

Hey, too bad Sprint/Samsung beat me to it in the FA19 update (or so I read, I'll double check it), but I figured out how to completely remove carrier iq on accident.. :P Here's part of it in the framework:

Code:
<service android:label="IQ Agent Service" android:name="com.carrieriq.iqagent.service.IQService" android:enabled="true" android:exported="true" android:process="android.iqd">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="com.carrieriq.iqagent.service.IQService" />
            </intent-filter>
        </service>
        <receiver android:label="IQ Agent Autostarter" android:name="com.carrieriq.iqagent.service.receivers.BootCompletedReceiver" android:enabled="true" android:exported="true" android:process="android.iqd">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="com.sprint.android.SPRINTEXTENSION_STARTED" />
            </intent-filter>
        </receiver>
        <activity android:label="IQ Agent Settings" android:name="com.carrieriq.iqagent.service.ui.DebugSettings" android:enabled="true" android:exported="false" android:process="android.iqd" />
        <activity android:label="IQ Agent Message Dialog" android:name="com.carrieriq.iqagent.service.ui.ShowMessage" android:enabled="true" android:exported="false" android:process="android.iqd" android:stateNotNeeded="true" android:excludeFromRecents="true" />
    </application>
    <permission-group android:label="IQ Agent Client Permissions" android:name="com.carrieriq.iqagent.client" />
    <permission-group android:label="IQ Agent Service Permissions" android:name="com.carrieriq.iqagent.service" />
    <permission android:label="Submit a metric to the IQ Agent" android:name="com.carrieriq.iqagent.client.SUBMIT_METRIC" android:protectionLevel="normal" android:permissionGroup="com.carrieriq.iqagent.client" />
    <permission android:label="Use the shared memory interface to the IQ Agent" android:name="com.carrieriq.iqagent.client.SHMEM" android:protectionLevel="signature" android:permissionGroup="com.carrieriq.iqagent.client" />
    <permission android:label="Submit an SMS to the IQ Agent to be inspected for special instructions" android:name="com.carrieriq.iqagent.client.CHECK_SMS" android:protectionLevel="signatureOrSystem" android:permissionGroup="com.carrieriq.iqagent.client" />
    <permission android:label="Set the IQ Agent collection profile" android:name="com.carrieriq.iqagent.client.SET_PROFILE" android:protectionLevel="signatureOrSystem" android:permissionGroup="com.carrieriq.iqagent.client" />
    <permission android:label="Start or stop the IQ Agent service" android:name="com.carrieriq.iqagent.client.STARTSTOP" android:protectionLevel="signatureOrSystem" android:permissionGroup="com.carrieriq.iqagent.client" />

Edit: Boo. Holo's graphics don't exist for ldpi devices (our resolution). :'( It would take a lot of work to get the graphics for our size. I could copy from the next up (mdpi) but then it may look bad or strange..

Another Edit!: Sorry guys, looks like I wasted over a week waiting on this call for nothing. I should be getting back to working on the rom shortly..

Re: [ACS][ROM] PhoeniX ROM 0.2

I used the UOT and made some changes. Seems to go ok, you just have to mount /system and /data after you clear you cache and dalvik cache for it to work. I tried it with just flashing the zip but no dice. Rebooted, mounted and its working.

I posted a thread about it.

It is possible to theme odex'ed roms, I have had many theme's on my phones that were odex.

And actually, you want to keep the rom odex'ed as much as possible, because then it doesn't rely to much on dalvik cache and make the phone run faster.

Re: [ACS][ROM] PhoeniX ROM 0.2

Rom update: I'm trying to get 0.2b ready for you guys before morning (2:49AM currently..), I may have fixed the boot animations issue and it is being upgraded to base FA19. FA19 beat me to it, but either way, CarrierIQ is gone indefinitely. Dmrlook's custom kernel will be updated to the FA19 kernel (just in case) and in version 0.3. I also hope to finally bring sd-ext to you guys very soon. I had to stop flashing my phone waiting for an interview call that didn't happen, so I can flash and test all I want now. My apologies once again for not updating anything since last week.

PS: I also hope to throw together a quick website for the rom. Nothing fancy, but rather than multiple forums and a blog post on my site, I can let users post support tickets, provide feedback, etc all from one central place, making my job a whole lot easier. The thread here and on ACSyndicate will still exist, but I'd highly prefer once completed that bugs and such be reported to the site. Storing and sorting info from my own database will let me see more quickly what's going on rather than skimming through what turned out to be a rather surprisingly large (for me, at least :P) thread.

EDIT: Sorry if anyone saw this and was waiting, I may hold off while I figure some things out. I only attempted to enable boot animations and two changes that are not noticeable to the end-user, but I'm having issues creating an update. I want to move away from bash scripting and use the real update scripting, but it's being screwy. All online examples show one thing, and then my phone throws out errors saying I have too many arguments. So, I just need to figure things out by trial and error. :P

Re: [ACS][ROM] PhoeniX ROM 0.2

SO I was gonna try and update CWM I know its installed in the phoenix ROM but It I try and use rom manager it says its not installed if up it if possible or install separate will this work .. or hopefully will see a update on the ROM soon
 
Please guys.. for the last time, YOU CANNOT USE ROM MANAGER! An ACS member has created a similar app that I am working to bring PhoeniX to, but I gave step by step instructions! They aren't that hard to follow, and I even delayed 0.2b to make it even easier. Please stop trying to use something that is NOT supported. If you would just read other posts/threads, you will see multiple people bricking their phones and complaining nothing they try works.

I realize what I package and put out isn't perfect, but it isn't difficult to do, either. Before you create problems on yourself and repeat what we've seen over and over, please just read, okay? I don't mean to rant or be angry here, but some of your problems can be solved by not ignoring instructions and listening to what others have found before you.

Edit: No, installing it "separately" won't change a thing. CWM5 is not PhoeniX specific, rom manager just does not support the Replenish unofficial port by Shabbypenguin. We have only modified and repacked ext4 file system support which was forgotten in his final release, nothing else. If you want rom manager, you will have to bug Koush yourself. My only plan is to use CWM and now ACS Updater, both brought to the Replenish by other ACS team members.

But I don't want to read! *cries*

Jk.

Agreed!

Re: [ACS][ROM] PhoeniX ROM 0.2

I got new update on my phone and when I tried to update it didn't work?
 
Re: [ACS][ROM] PhoeniX ROM 0.2

Hey Firehak. Have you ever heard of the 3g SuperCharge scripts and similar things? I've just been checking into them today and it claims to work on ANY Android Device. It's pretty much just running a script .. and using BusyBox. The author says that ROM Devs can integrated it into their ROMS. [Script][MOD][U9RC6.1] Sticky 'n Smooth ISCream-=V6 SUPERCHARGER!=-The ONLY RAM Fixer - xda-developers

it does work and I was using it on my sons leaf rom to boost speed.
 
Re: [ACS][ROM] PhoeniX ROM 0.2

Hi - Heaven knows how I found your "rom," but after trying a handful of "similars" on a non-top-50 phone, the Samsung Replenish, boy am I ever glad.

Your instructions - if they were yours - weren't perfect (or even close), considering that 90% of your "traffic" must be from first timers, but as I say, I had the benefit of bad, not terrible, experiences earlier in the day.

Somebody, somewhere put up a video, and that's REALLY nice - if you can find the time. Again, my needs are - I hope - all "past tense." ... You also might want to add an FAQ, to cover things like a "System Update" (OTA) notification that something tells me would make some work for me were I to accept.... And finding a way to turn it off (the notification) wasn't all that easy.

I LOVE that you took away most of the "crap" that Sprint forced upon me, ... and I love even more that I was able to retire the stock Browser (I'm sure everyone has their reasons to root, but that was numero uno for me) in favor of Opera.... Sorry to ramble - I hope some of this is useful to you or others - but you DID seem to go overboard in creaming the MyFiles app, so that until I re-installed Astro, I has about 2/3 of an operating system.

Anyhow, I'm glad you chose to spend some time and effort on our nice budget device - hope it proves useful to you when you take on beefier and more popular handsets.... If nothing else, as you were learning (I think you were the honest developer who admitted as much) by doing, you probably had fewer people cursing at you from afar, either for their mistakes ... or yours (however careful you were) - that's got to be an "upside" to starting with a low market share device. Bottom line, as they say - THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!
 
Re: [ACS][ROM] PhoeniX ROM 0.2

I have stock 2.3.6 FA19, and I did a backup via CWM per Shabbys link.

If I install the PhoeniX ROM 0.2, will I later be able to restore my backup to stock 2.3.6 FA19?

Definitely what he has done for this rom is good, yes. I understand the Thank you Part.
 
Is there a way to make the latest OTA update notification go away?

Sorry if it's been asked/answered already, on break at work so I don't have time to go through the thread.
