First off - VRB is by far the best ROM I've loaded on my SCH-I535, and I think by this point I've flashed them all. I've never had stability issues, and the battery is strong as can be.


However, I have noticed/experienced camera issues on the most recent build (3.8 2/26/13). The camera has seemed laggy, and none of the "scene" settings seem to be working. I have gone through the scene list while taking pictures of the same object and not only are the settings not making a difference on the live camera view, but they're not showing up in the pictures either. I just came over from a CM nightly, and previous to that I was using CarbonRom - both of which had these settings working.

Also, in a possibly related issue - the front-facing camera maxes out at 1.3mp instead of 1.9mp. I know this was mentioned earlier, but I wanted to report that I'm having that issue as well.

I've re-flashed the ROM after a full wipe, and I've cleared the gallery data as well. I'm running KT747 3.0.65 (2/19) Kernel, however I was having the issue with the included kernel as well.

Any thoughts?

Few things I'm looking for:
1) Enabling gridlines for camera. It was mentioned to be in "normal camera", which I am, but still no option for gridlines.
2) What settings are folks using for Performance Control?
3) I'm guessing Profiles are supposed to be so that while at work, for example, I can have everything turn to vibrate. Or, if I select Quiet (for night time), not even a peep is heard. Is that correct? Is there an "exceptions" list, so that I can add important people who will override the settings? And is there something somewhere that describes Profiles and what the options mean?

Shoot - first random reboot. Battery down to 7%, so put it on the charger. After about 30-45 mins, I went to check on the status. Hit home button and boot screen came up.

I closed the other threads. Not the mods. Why don't you just remap your hardware keys in rootbox settings.

I know this may sound like a dumb question, but for anyone having the issue where pressing the home button opens recent apps, are you releasing the button fast enough?

It appears that the amount of time it takes to register a press and hold on the button has decreased somewhere along the line. I don't know if it's something that changed in the ROM, or due to another tweak that I applied but it seems noticeably faster now than it used to be.

If I press the button very quickly, I can get it to work properly every single time. When I add just a slight pause it registers as holding the button down. Give it a try.

From where the wind begins....
You'll have to forgive me, as I'm still learning about all this type of stuff. But is this a rom that you need to be more into developement to fully appreciate it? I ask because I see more options than just simple, everyday ones.

    RootBox Support Thread​


    Before you start please take some time and read the following...

    Support Team

    The team behind this thread:
    Rules

    A few rules beside the general XDA-Rules:

    • Only RootBox related questions and feedbacks
    • Respect everyone in here, especially the Support Team which use their free time to help you guys as fast & helpful as possible and keep this thread alive.
    • Read at least the last two pages before posting to avoid repetitive posts.
    • Have a look at the Help-Index before asking anything which is already explained.
    • Check the Known issuesbefore reporting an issue.
    • Check for newer versions and their Changelog to see whether a problem you want to report is already fixed

    Known Issues



    Inverted APPS

    First of all, I would like to say that flashing inverted GAPPS is fully acceptable and it won't break anything. The issue is, some inverted gapps "devs" don't stop at inverting GAPPS. They go beyond this scope and also include other apps such as Phone, Contacts, Mms etc..

    These system apps (Phone, Contacts, Mms etc...) Are built from source every time we build a rom and it does happen that we make several changes to them which makes them SPECIFIC to the rom you use. In the case of RootBox Mms, Phone, Camera and ROMControl are built with specific merges that other roms might not have. So what happens when you flash Inverted APPS? You're basically using an outdated/not fully compatible app with RootBox and you might even be missing some features. This is why I do not support anyone using inverted APPS.

    A
    Alarm
    • How can I disable alarm icon?

    • You can enable/disable alarm icon in statusbar in Clock > Settings.
    • You can enable/disable next alarm information on Chronus widget in RootBox Settings > Chronus > Clock and alarm.

    B
    Battery
    • How can I save my battery? (Without flashing anything or undervolt kernel)

    • You can check all apps/functions which sync in background like GPS, Wlan or Social accounts (If not needed = disable)
    • Set the Brightness down (Settings > Display > Brightness)
    • Use dark (best black) theme & wallpaper & lockscreenwallpaper

    C
    Chronus
    • How can I place Chronus on lockscreen?

    Look into Lockscreen section below.

    • Where do I configure Chronus?

    RootBox Settings > Chronus. There you can configure Clock + Weather + Calendar settings. Note that all these settings apply to both homescreen and lockscreen Chronus widget.

    • How can I change color of Chronus widget?

    You cannot ATM. You can only change color of standard clock. Or you can use theme which changes color of Chronus, e.g. Hue themes by Kroz.

    D
    DPI
    • How can I customize DPI?

    There are basically two ways to do so.
    1. Change overall system DPI
      You can change overall system DPI by editing build.prop system file. We do not recommend to do that manually.
      Use some user-friendly app from Play store, e.g. Texdroider. But remember that you have to use multidpi playstore then to be able to install other apps without problems.
    2. Change per-app DPI
      You can use Per-App Settings integrated into this ROM:

      First, all credits associate to Xposed Frameworks and Modules goes to Rovo89 for sharing his work and making it open source for everyone. You guys should all buy him a beer.

      Steps to follow:
      1) Install Xposed Frameworks by going in Modules Management>Install/Update
      2) Enable Per-App Settings by going in Modules Management> Modules>Tick RootBox Per-App Settings (You should reboot your phone at this point)
      3) Setup your phone : Per-App Settings>Choose your app>Set DPI/Resolution/Tablet UI/Language> Press Save on top
      4) Your app should now display in your preferred settings. If it doesnt, kill the app and restart it or reboot phone.

    • My device isn’t supported in playstore after changing DPI

    You have to use the MultiDPI-Playstore here from URL="http://xdaforums.com/member.php?u=4534385"] “MyLifeRocks10”:
    => http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1839871

    Lockscreen
    • How do I get shortcuts on my lockscreen?

    RootBox Settings > Shortcuts.

    Rom Control > Lockscreen > Minimize Lockscreen Challenge.

    NavBar
    • How do I change NavBar Color?

    Hybrid Settings>Interface> NavBar Color .

    • How do I enable NavBar transparency?

    Rom Control>GeneralUI>Statusbar and navigation bar opacity.

    Nightlies
    • What is Nightly? Should I flash Nightly or latest Stable version?

    There is no major difference. Nightlies are "unofficial" builds that are built almost everyday for everyone to try builds with the latest sources merged to RootBox. For noobs/average user, this is not necessary because they live in a bubble where they feel more comfortable flashing an "official" release than a nightly, but at the end, it all breaks down to just a differentiation of name. So if you don't know what a nightly is, don't flash it and don't bother asking.

    S
    Statusbar
    • How do I enable Status Bar transparency?

    Rom Control>GeneralUI>Statusbar and navigation bar opacity.

    • What is fast toggle in Status Bar Toggles?

    This will allow you to swipe from the right or left side of your statusbar (depending on what you choose) and it will go to your quick settings bypassing any notifications.

    I'm not purposely breaking builds. I just don't have the time to finish merging what I started since I'm in the middle of examination period in university. You have a funny way of describing the situation as if I didn't want you guys to build.

    Then don't use it dude. I've seen you post everywhere, and all you do is comment about how things are useless/broken/bad or not working for you with every rom. If you think it's the same thing as navbar+navbar ring, then use that instead. That's why there's always options to turn things off.
