Love this so far! Just wish some apps were better with the dpi adjustments but that isn't you of course :silly:.

Only issue i've noticed is that when scrolling some windows part of the screen doesn't seem to scroll properly.

UxO361zm11iKSWeUVA9r4HF1sN2rdMkm_AUVwhXVzwQ


I've noticed this only on a couple of apps but not sure what the cause is, doesn't bother me much, just wondering if anyone else has seen this. Btw that is Remote Media Center for Remote Potato.

Anyone else getting less than impressive performance in N64 emulators like Mupen64 and N64oid? Had no issues on ICS but now games run at basically unplayable FPS's

rogue vibration

Love this Rom, extremely stable. Been my daily driver for about a week.

Having something strange happen - whenever anything is downloading (updates, files from browser, any xfer ... basically anything that shows up as a transfer in notifications) the phone vibrates; periodically, as if it's ringing. This stops when the download completes. This happens regardless of the sound settings.

The workaround I am using is to create an Application Group in Profiles with all of the apps that download things (Play Store, Browser, Goo.im, etc.). Then, in every profile, I set that group's "Vibrate Mode" to Off. This is effective, though a bit time-consuming because you have to edit the final setting in each individual profile.

I am running the 01/19 Nightly. It could have been fixed in a more recent nightly, but I can't check for a few days. I wanted to leave this here regardless in the event that the workaround is useful for someone. I was also wondering if anyone else has experienced this or can make any sense of why it would be happening in the first place (from a curiosity/academic standpoint).

I cannot get google search to work for voice-to-text. Using either for text messaging or Google now. I'm using the correct Gapps and have tried re-flashing with wiping cache/dalvik and without. Don't know what else to do

Im not a devolper so of coarse I don't know whats devolpment and not devolopment. I should post the stuff thats broken so you can fix it. Figured thats how this forum runs. *shrug* worked for last 2 years but I keep seeing threads shut down its weird.. must be a S3 thing more "sensitive" people buy them or something...

anyways same question basicly tthe same thread..... now were all in one place yaaaa!

Did a fresh lean install and reinstalled apps and all the same problems are back. Now I have two home installers. Trebulet and Nova. Every time I restart I have to repick nova. If I do a backup my apps randomly disiaper. If I wipe cache or dalvik all my settings (any rom options I made go bad)

Here is another weird one after a fresh clean install I swear some stuff from the flash before I wiped (settings) manasged to transfer over though I could be wrong hard to tell I don't flash a ton or anything. Anyways So Its either a rom issue, or a phone issue. I dunno maybe my phone is messed up or I even though I leave phone pluged into computer all day could be my computer? Maybe when I do Registy cleaner or something some how it hits my phone (a bit out there I know) But I just want a stable rom trying figure this out.... I dunno whats left try because clearly other people iwth my make and model who were nice enough to pm me with some helpfull advise have 0 issues... dunno maybe its bad luck..

welll any thoughts be great... I don't get why some apps download fine others go poof after a restart... could this be cause by 0folder crap I hear aorund the forums? I don't have a sddisk0 anymore its usbdisk0 is that normal? maybe market saving aps to wrong place half time? Saving it to part sd card that gets wiped because thats what it seems like even when I do a operation that shouldn't touch my apps at all they poof and my settings

Rom settings and Apps are in different places ? correct? so hows that happen

Could be sabotage.............


On a side note isn't there a private forum for strictly developmental stuff? Maybe someone should tell creator to make a thread there. I never even been in that forum lol...
whats it look like?

This is a fresh installation:

Factory reset, Format internal memory, format external memory. Flash Rom, flash Gapps.

Make sure you're running latest TWRP or CWM before flashing.

Don't restore anything from anywhere except your Google backup and you should be fine.

There's one other thing I noticed. My bluetooth will randomly shut off while connected to my car which also means I have to reboot to reconnect. Its not often but it does it enough to be annoying. Anyone else notice this?

Bringing all this back up. The last part about the Bluetooth shutting down on its own its still happening on the 1/28 nightly. Again, it's my hands-free and not streaming. I have other music sources for that. Also, ignore what my signature says. I fully wiped for this nightly just to start fresh but still get the problem.

I got that error when xposed didn't install properly.

I googled xposed as I didn't know what it was and it looks like its part of the framework, the part that controls the per app DPI???

So I'm thinking about installing the incremental update of the newest nightly, but am wondering if I should just dirty flash the whole new nightly instead to make sure everything flashed successfully? Thanks

    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.


    Help Index

    ** Index created by Kubics and Hannibal

    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

    G
    GAPPS
    • Do I have to flash GAPPS with ROM?

    Yes.

    • What version of GAPPS should I download?

    Currently you need GAPPS 20121212 for RootBox version >3.2 based on Android 4.2.1. If you for any reason want to install RootBox based on Android 4.1.2, i.e. version 3.2 and lower, install GAPPS 20121011. You can check here for latest GAPPS for different Android versions: http://goo.im/gapps.

    L
    Lockscreen
    • How do I get shortcuts on my lockscreen?

    RootBox Settings > Shortcuts.

    • How do I put Chronus on my lockscreen instead of standard clock?

    You have to drag clock on lockscreen. It will allow you to remove it. Then you can add Chronus or any other widget instead.

    • How do I make Chronus show my Weather and Calendar on lockscreen?

    Rom Control > Lockscreen > Minimize Lockscreen Challenge.

    • How do I unlock faster when Minimize Lockscreen Challenge is enabled?

    Rom Control > Lockscreen > Enable longpress to unlock.

    N
    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.
