HTC ONE S codefireX


CodefireX 4.4.3.2.1.000.000 Open Master



This well established Android distribution treats development differently than any other to further our Android platform as a whole. This is the fastest source built ROM you will find on this forum, and also the only one to utilize our unique build system and a custom LLVM 3.5 suite based toolchain globally.

Here is our very well supported Issue Tracker.

We utilize a plethora of unique optimizations in a build system unlike any other:

  • Utilizing the LLVM CLANG CI globally, working heavily with upstreams with a goal of furthering our entire Android platform.
  • Consistently updated upstream toolchain module source with our custom backports, fixes, and optimizations applied in a patch at build time.
  • Fully built utilizing Link Time Optimization and Polly optimizations (another custom ROM first). Feel free to google these a bit.
  • Much of our source have code fixes, cleanups, and many minor optimizations to set us even further ahead of the community. These are too generous to even speak of here.
  • Optimizations are toggled on and off based on device for the best experience we can achieve for your device without sacrificing stability
  • Many Qcom optimizations and AOSP master (upstream) optimizations and fixes using device specifications to determine usage.
  • Fully built utilizing strict aliasing and isognu++11 mode.
  • Utilizing all O4 optimizations (Optimization Level 4) including LTO (with binutils plugins), and additionally LLVM Polly.
Of course we also have several neat UI features, including but not limited to:
  • T-Mobile Theme Engine.
  • DPI Wizard (no junk like build.prop tweaks).
  • Quick Settings panel customizations.
  • Live network stats in your statusbar.
  • Button backlight customizations.
  • Hardware button customizations.
  • Volume button customizations.
  • Many more being added during the nightly builds.

Our thanks go out to all the open source developers who made our work possible.
Below is an ever-incomplete list of some of the 'indirect' contributors to our ROMs:
  • The Android Open Source Project
  • LLVM CI
  • Linux Foundation
  • Code Aurora Forum
  • CyanogenMod Inc.
  • Chainfire
  • The entire 8960 CM team for making this device relevant still!!
  • Many more!

Great to see this ROM. Looking forward to trying it later this weekend... Snowing a lot here on Canada... This should keep me busy on Sunday :)

Having fun with codefire so far. Created a custom kernel off of codefire kernel sources and it's running well. Not too many features yet. But I will post it if people are interested.

There are a few feature requests I have. In cm you can normally add sound/vibrate/mute toggle to quick settings as well as flashlight... maybe these don't exist yet in the base? Also I don't see advanced reboot menu in dev options...

Right now its hiding under settings/buttons. I may be missing the overlay for flashlight but I'll have to check on the other tiles.

Under settings/buttons I only see options for the Home Button and Recents Button, not the Back Button... And there is no kill app on the other buttons at the moment.

EDIT:
But I did just notice the Power menu under the settings/buttons, which allows for advanced reboot, screenshot, etc, etc. Cool!

Edit2: now I'm looking for locksreen customizing... Can't seem to find it

SU?

Anyone have a working su zip to install? The one posted with the ROM seem to only install the SuperSU apk and not the su binary,

Nevermind, problem was custom kernel flashing prior to su install. FYI, updated su zip available from chainfire

How tightly is this synced with upstream cm? There are still a bunch of device related fixes I see coming down the pipe and id like to stay on top of them, but I really enjoy the idea that this was built with a performance centric toolchain.

I have a question, concerning the nightlies - it's just to be sure. For each device there is under "last changes" always "no changes since last build".. Is this reliable, cause if there are no changes, it does not make to much sense for me, to flash the same Rom again and again.

We'll I'm sure they sync with upstream cm every day

No its not acurate...Jenkins just hasn't been set up to display the changelogs(some thing for our leader to look into though). I maintain all 4 of our 8960 devices (ville, jewel,Evita,and fireball) and keep a good eye on CM and others for device specific changes that I can incorporate. May not be daily but I don't like to be behind :)

Today's builds should have fixes for most of the app related issues that have been reported thus far. Only exception is the FC that was reported with email app. That should be fixed in tomorrows builds.

Yesterday I downloaded and flashed latest nightly but to be honest CM is far more smoother than this. there was lags and spikes during transitions. is this a known issue or am I missing something?

Question... Do any of the codefire optimizations, etc, effect the launcher that comes with the ROM? I say that bc I wonder if I will loose something by using google experience launcher and flashing another gApps with that included.

Built in launcher is built to our level but you won't notice much difference between em performance wise. I've run gapps with GEL.

Actually I use this Rom as my daily driver. It's very nice and smooth and I have no big problems. But there are some bugs:
- com.android.phone FC, when I try to open the APN settings.
- android.process.media FC, when I try to open the Downloads-app.
- dolphin browser sometimes FC
- ART does not work properly - many apps FC.
- Maybe more.

Apart from that, as I said, it's an amazing Rom. Keep up the good job.
