[ROM] Harmonia 1.87 Froyo (Aphrodite+Picasticks) 12June12

[tdm]

Problem solved. I used the wrong commandline. Should be:

mem=477M console=ttyMSM2,115200n8 androidboot.hardware=thunderc uart_console=disable recovery=off lge.rev=10

so i'm already seeing much better battery stats than aosp, and that's with "50% without signal" which I just fixed by using the Airplane Mode trick. normally at this time of the day with little usage, i'd be at around 65% or less. at the moment, i'm at 77%. who knows how much better it will be tomorrow when i'm not searching for signal all day.

great job again on this ROM. i know this isn't a ROM developer issue, but if someone can find a fix for the green line on Netflix, i don't know that i'll ever use another ROM.

LeslieAnn I just wanted to say thanks for such a great fast and stable rom. I have tried them and tried them again but keep coming back. Hope you can find time one day to make it even better if thats even possible

I agree. I came back to this rom from aosp and love the battery life. I'm staying with this for a while.

What kind of battery life are you guys seeing with this ROM?

I just wanted to thank Leslie again, I've been using the rom for weeks and I would say that your rom is much more stable than even the stock version. I used to crash every other day, now I might get a crash once a week tops, if even that. I travel around a lot and don't get to charge more than when i'm sleeping at night, I almost never find myself with a dead battery and I go through at least 6 hours of music a day plus I surf 3g extensively.

Your rom is the best thing going on the Optimus V. Thanks again for all your hard work!

3-4+ days with very light use. 2+ days with moderate use. 1-1.5 days with heavy use.

Wow. I was getting those numbers on Rodimus, but not on Harmonia. I lost 15-20% overnight, and I have background data/syncing disabled. No apps are running that don't need to be either.

If the Rodimus dev didn't brick their phone I'd have stayed on that.

 

[mjs2011]

i got about 16 hours yesterday after very heavy use (almost constant Netflix usage for 3 hours), plus i have SpotsTap, Facebook and Twitter scrolling widgets running. on aosp or stock, i would have gotten closer to 10 hours.

Which version did you last try? When Harmonia first cam out it suffered from the same wifi bug that was killing the battery for CM7. The latest version should be the same as Rodimus.

The only version I've ever tried was Harmonia 1.2.

I have noticed that I normally have 0-1 bars now instead of the usual 0-3 bars at home. I'm wondering if a local tower bit the dust lately.

How do I get Google apps to install?

Here is what I have done:
1. Installed Xionia recovery
2. Flashed Harmoni 1.2 .zip from recovery
3. Cleared the caches from recovery
4. Reboot into recovery
5. Flash Google Apps .zip from recovery

Everything is displayed as flashing successfully according the recovery.

But no Google apps show up in the apps list. When I tap "Market", it does not go to market.

Please help!

Thanks

Wipe everything and start over. This time dont flash the GAPPS they are included in Harmonia 1.2

 

[nemirn]

Thanks... seems to be working now.

 

[LeslieAnn]

Glad everyone likes it.

Don't think this been abandoned.
I do have a test version working using some files from Bumblebee, which gives this rom the reboot/recovery option and the TWS fix, but it's not stable. I have to drop 50mhz to 100mhz stay even close to as stable as I am with stock Harmonia.

 

[perksa]

Glad to hear it LeslieAnn. Quick question how does the TWS fix work? I mean I can get great battery life if I turn off 3g data and only use it when I need to but even with bumblebee rom I had to do the same thing.

Sweet I was just coming on here to see if it was possible to add a boot into recovery/ reboot option when you press the power button. After playing around with the different ROM in here I finally settled on this one, I just missed having the option to boot into recovery without having to do the whole Vol down + Home+ power button combo.

I'm running Harmonia using the Bumblebee files and I have the reboot/recovery option working well on my phone. I don't quite remember what I did, but it was pretty easy.

You would need to flash the bumblebee kernel. The recovery option is included in the kernel not the rom.

I didn't flash the kernel and I have the recovery/reboot. I flashed some framework or similar files, but not the kernel.
