You're great, its super:good:

That's the problem with me -

And again you did a very good job :good:
Can I flash the new rom with GPS like an update, so that i do not have to install everything again?^^ just wipe cache and dalvik and leave the rest as it is?
Btw now the camera is the last thing missing for my holiday^^, then I can test your rom for 2 weeks outdoor

So keep on your excellent work :victory:

after flashing your latest rom, there is sometimes a red frame around the display.

Hello, I used the new Custom ROM, I liked but did not know why constantly loses coverage of the mobile operator. I have not tried GPS, WIFI is working well.
I hope you like comment on Custom ROM to help clear the error that occurred. This is not a criticism. I have great respect for you and what you do with it.
Cheers.:laugh:

BTW battery lifetime is much better than on stock rom. 6 h without charging, gps and wifi off, a lot of facebook, whatsapp, email and some gaming, 91% left :good: seems to be that you can use the Xcover now for a couple of days without charging

Thanks for testing! I didn't notice any difference by now - the link has been pretty poor with the stock image as well. I'll put it on my list and make a comparison. Anyone knows a app to plot the link quality?

cheers,

In this special case: yes. The image from the 29th just has one config file added. Sometimes it's simple

after flashing your latest rom, there is sometimes a red frame around the display.

Yep. I noticed that also. No concrete idea where it comes from but I think there's a problem with the settings provider....

cheers,

GPS is not working for me, any idea how to fix it?

I like the Custom ROM. I can not wait to get the new clean fix. Phone with him is not the same, it is great. Thank flxo

Hey, I am really interested in testing this, just want to verify that I flash latest from CWM correct? I am fairly used to custom roms, but this is my first samsung and they seem to do things a bit different so better ask then sorry. ^^

 

[simondiercks]

Great job, keep on goin'. Thank you for your work...

EDIT: flashed it and gapps, and works fine. feels faster than stock. thx

Problems:
- sponatneous reboots
- red frame

 

[erostiff]

Hello,
Loving the mod, could not wait to get away from Samsungs mess.

Does anyone experience call drops after a couple of minutes? (Sound cuts out but does not seem to disconnect)

Also:
Red frame and reboots
Nevertheless, keep up the good work!

Hey, has this project moved somewhere and I missed it or is it just a low peak atm? I am asking as it seemed to have a lot of activity last month but nothing this. I would love to see CM10 fully working on the Xcover 2 as the phone has no custom roms what so ever that I can find.

I've been off for three weeks and hope I can continue working on the port in the next days. Next item is the camera and some annoying stuff like the need to enable/disable the airplane mode once to get mobile data to work..

Sweet. Your vacation was well deserved! I was just curious if CM team had shut you down for some unknown reason or if you just changed phone etc

The red frame is gone, but therefore an errormessage pops up, when I try to install something from google play --> unknown errorcode "-24". I have flashed the rom 4 times, but nothing changes
