Allow option to use romtoolboxpro to be used via systems menu rather than lite versions..

Does this rom have ota updates ?

If you update to the Pro version of the root explorer then it should automatically change it, although you will also have an icon in your drawer,
I really did not find any difference with the lite and pro I could do everything that I need to do with the Lite version which is why I use it. Dont forget its only a smartphone not a PC... And with the lite version I can Copy/Move/Delete Create Archives/Extract Archives, change permissions, Edit Text , Edit XML, sort, multi-select,... This is all I use and there is more that can be done.. what else do you need lool I also added the Ad blocker which removes all the adds and in the root explorer it replaces the adds with a RomToolBox Banner Much less annoying

No OTA updates, Not bothered to get that going as it needs maintenance and I dont have time.. I am starting to slow down abit And only updating the rom when a New firmware with change-log has been updated and this is when I will make some changes.

I can make back button to kill app but I dont know how to make menu button to open multiwindow , Not sure i have ever seen that done. I may give the option Menu Or Back button Choice in aroma with next version

No it doesn't unfortunately, as RomToolbox pro installs a completly separate full version apk.. Same with adblock..

The back button currently gives you the option of multiwindow when pressed, I was just wandering if they could be swapped around...

OTA no biggie. I will just reflash any new release..

Very impressed with the rom.. Full of features, tweaks n stuff... Tis what any enthusiast could want. .

You just have to ad multiwindow in your notifications toggle and control it from there then the back button won't bring multiwindows anymore.

No worries, I suppose you could have the option of 'include rom toolbox free extras' so It can be disabled in system menu for pro users..

No biggie though..

It will increase the rom zip by around 35mb as i have to make 2 versions of secsettings. Then i will have anotherr user saying can u take this out and that out. Its never ending. But i see what u mean but i cant please everyone sorry

Hi all

Anyone know how or where to backup the face recognition unlock photo's, I've spent some time "training" my phone so I didn't want to have to go through the whole process again.....

Thanks

---------- Post added at 08:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:40 AM ----------

update: I think I've found the answer to my own question. Found a "Face unlock" option in Titanium, so hope that's it ;)

I'm loving this face unlock thing.... it's now super fast (I've trained it real good...). I Just love rubbing it in Apple owners faces because they can't do it.... (pun intended :D)

Hi btemtd,
So far v6.6 is running just perfect.
I know you're waiting for a real firmware changes to update and you're right.
Here is 2 little things that i guess should please everyone for the next release.
- Adding exit menu to stock web browser
- Fixing SMS/MMS Timestamp so it shows time sent not received
Some others roms provide those things but i really don't want to change from yours.

Again awesome work here.

The only change I could see with this ROM is the ability to have a separate flash file for the themes. I seem to have to reinstall the ROM to try new themes!!!

Sorry guys I have been very busy with work... I havent even been on here for awhile.. I am working on an update, there still has not been a firmware update with a new changelog number except for the chinese firmware... I do not want to deal with it and there is no difference what so ever I have even trialed it stock and have not noticed anything at all which is why i am back to 6.6...

a few things i may be updating:

Adding exit menu to stock web browser
Fixing SMS/MMS Timestamp so it shows time sent not received
I am going to implement the blackberry 10 lockscreen as a settings option so we will have ink, AOSP, Standard and BB10...
if you dont know what the bb10 lockscreen is youtube it... I am trying to do it in my spare time as i liked the look of it. It has been ported already and works good.
I will also try add another 2 shortcuts to the AOSP LS..... I am thinking calender and playstore? what you think? I havent worked out how to implement the option to edit different shortcuts through settings for the aosp lockscreen and i dont have too much time to figure stuff out .. but yeh thats whats up atm :D

Peace broz

Glad to see you here !
Maybe a sound/vibrate shortcut would be nice if you can figure out how to implement it.
Thanks for your time ;)

Edit: There's also a new perseus update (alpha 33)

Possible to have a sysui with custom statusbar image (you still have) AND transparent Notification Item background and notifications background? All in one? I tried to mod your sysui and replace it in the Rom zip, but that causes bootloop. Your ideas to implement are great, love the bb10 lock

Alarm found, but I have S Planner Widget installed, but I cannot see it, how is it possible? My rom is clean and wiped and just installed, but there isn't SPlanner in the list of widgets, and If I try to reinstall manually the apk I got error "application not installed"

    ATTENTION USERS I HAVE OFFICIALLY STOPPED THE SUPPORT OF PANDORIAM FOR THE I9305 BUT WILL LEAVE THE LINK UP AND RUNNING I LEFT IT AT A GOOD STAGE THE ONLY THING I CAN THINK OFF IS THE AOSP SMS APP, NOT 100% SO BEST TO CHOOSE THE SAMSUNG APP . EVERYTHING ELSE IS FINE.... I AM STILL RUNNING IT IN MY GIRLFREINDS PHONE.

    I AM NOW A PROUD NEW OWNER OF THE S4, I may or may not port this rom over will see.



    WARNING: You all should know by now the risks of custom android, so please make a nandroid backup before flashing this way you can always flash back to exactly how you had your phone if you dont like it or something goes wrong. I cannot be responsible for any faults that occur with your phone. Here is a guide I made for the people who have just bought there device and wondering what to do, how to get root, how to backup EFS & Imei/NV data, how to make a nandroid. CLICK HERE FOR GUIDE

    ATT: This is not my day job as to why it may take longer to reply or release updates, but believe me if I was getting paid I would gladly serve you here and produce much better software by taking the time to learn and expand my knowledge, unfortunately I don't so it has to be done in my own time when ever I have time to spare.

    WELCOME TO PANDORIAM
    A ROM for the (Intermediate - Advanced) User who knows EXACTLY what they want.
    This is more for the intermediate to advanced user that knows EXACTLY what they want , there is a TON of customization, my aim for my ROM is to give the user plenty of options to design their own UI from the installation point and give them the tools to do so and most importantly give you a base that is smooth and fast to play with and I think I have done that. It may become frustrating if you are a beginner and do not know what you want ESPECIALLY if your main language is not English, but for the more advanced users that do understand alot this is awesome , you will see what i mean when you start the aroma, Little by little the customization/tweaks and mods may or may not grow but it will definitely change if anything does need to depends on my motivation or how much support I get. Thank You and enjoy!

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Instructions:

    I would recommend using CWM recovery 5.5 as I have had users using the upgraded version 6.0.1.2 and because of some issue with it, it was not wiping the data properly. And caused problems with rom. Not sure if it was just the user or the Cwm so just a precaution,

    Steps
    Copy Zip file to internal or external SD card
    Wipe/Data factory reset is a must ifyou 100% dont want any FC. I mean it may work if you dont but to be on the safe side do it.

    Install zip from sd card
    And run through the aroma options - Take note : If you make a mistake on an option and want to re-do the installation ,Complete a Wipe/Data reset before doing it!
    Be aware it may take Longer depending what you choose in aroma (It is normal to take several minutes at times)


    Take Note: If your ExtSD card is playing up or has a bug or faulty directory or file, this is going to cause problems when installing the rom as many aspect of the rom uses the vrTheme structure, so if you have followed the above instructions EXACTLY aswell as using the 5.5 CWM recovery, and also checking the MD5 Checksum with the file you have downloaded and things are still playing up, Then I recommend you try format your ExtSD card COMPLETELY and then re-install the rom after you have done a Full factory & data wipe. Actually I do not recommend I insist you do this if you want to successfully use the rom

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    I do appreciate and thank anyone that has donated as this does take a lot of my time, so I have to admit if I receive a donation I feel like I am not doing it entirely for nothing and motivates me more. So I welcome it and I thank anyone who has donated.



    As Agreed by Pandoriams main users and myself, We agreed that an update is best of to be released every last friday of the month Unless a new version from samsung has been released, recently an update was happening every 2nd day and was basically becoming abit too much work for myself and even the users as they had to keep reflashing the new version. This new idea will be better as it will give me more time to update and I will not burn out as fast.

    Whats included?

    Rom Information/ tips and news

    If you want to use my rom with another theme just choose stock theme and then when the rom is installed just flash the other theme over the top and make sure the theme supports 4.1.2.

    -Multi CSC - I am experimenting thanks to Wannam for the data. Although i am finding hard to automatically change the csc over. It can be done manually tho. I have even tried the Playstore app I am able to select the new CSC but on the reboot it doesn't change it, Other devs also having this issue on the I9305 something may have been changed by samsung.

    - If you have not completed a FULL Data wipe & factory reset then expect to have random FC. If you don't then consider yourself lucky

    - If you have just installed the rom and went through the setup wizard and something doesnt seem to work correctly then reboot the phone manually and see if that fixed the problem before querying.

    FOR EXTRAS, HOW-TOS AND OLDER DOWNLOADS GO TO WWW.PANDORIAM.COM

    The Samsung default apps that are in this rom app/drawer, I have obviously left the most used and important applications the ones that say options next to it means you get to choose different styles of that app note there are more apps that you will be able to include if you want you will see when you run through aroma:

    Email
    Gmail - Options
    Video Player
    Voice Recorder
    Google Now - Options
    YoutubeHD - Options
    Samsung apps
    S Voice
    Internet Browser with option to change to 4.2
    Camera - Enhanced - Options
    Clock - Options
    Calculator

    Gallery
    MusicPlayer - Options
    My files
    Messaging
    Phone
    S Planner/Calender
    S Memo
    Playstore - options

    If you want anything else which is stock added and don't know how to do it yourself just ask most of the apks are in the zip file if you get lost inside and extract te files on your computer then use the search function to find the apk, then you can push it to your phone.

    Finallllllllllllllllllllllllllyyyyy Got IT !!!!

    OMG you dont understand how good this feels haha..... I am even betting this new version will solve the random SystemUI Fc that a few ppl are getting HOPEFULLY, as i have really concentrated on each APK whilst modding and learnt alot more, especially SystemUI Framework-res services and android.policy.. the 4 main files I was extremely carefull with and so far everything is spot on and smooth.

    Now Just need to edit 2 more files which should be straight forward, and then ill do some final tests and then release later tonight.. But first I need sleep. Zzzz

    Changlelog v6.0

    Updated Firmware
    Updated perseus
    Home button more responsive, removed Lag
    Added the options to change colours of notification date ,time, icons, close button/bar, checkboxes, brightness slider (Checkbox colours will be taken over if JB domination is chosen they will stay (Blue) I do not want to interfere too much with the theme)
    Added the option to have touchwiz launcher in landscape mode in homescreen & drawer
    removed the option for the notification message transparency option.- Reduces mistakes by ppl choosing wrong option and also reduces work load
    changed the directory of some optional apps to go into the user data so that you will be able to update from playstore


    Will use for the rest of the day to see if any errors occur, if all well will upload, reason i didnt upload yesterday was because something came up which i had to solve again.

    Just to inform you all that I am not going to upgrade to any firmware with the same Changelog number.as this is a waste of time and there is no point. the highest is 746327 which is what I have used and it doesnt matter what number the firmware is, Changelog # is the number to see if there have been any updates.
