> Rom's Notes.

• Who installs this Rom, accept it "as is".
• Contains just the apps and options installed.
• What you want to add will have to be obtained from Google-Play or any other sources.
• Please, don't report bugs if you are not using the installed Dhollmen Kernel.
• In case of questions or comments, you must indicate additional apps, tweaks or installed "optimizations".
• if you insert images, do it in a 'hide' tag. This hide your image until an user click to show it.
• I assume you has installed a suitable Recovery and know how to perform the required steps.
• Keep in mind that Antutu and others related apps give you very similar values, regardless of the Rom used.
• In such apps, OC influence on speed, but its goal is to evaluate the hardware, not the Rom.
• Don't use any kind of overclock before three consecutive stability test in Antutu.

> Rom take a long time to boot after installing.

• It is quite normal if ART runtime is used as applications are self-compiled at first boot time, after installing a new Rom or changing to ART.

> Applications are slow to start after installing.

• It is quite normal if ART is used because apps have self-compiled before first use.
  Although it may seem at times, the Rom is not hung, just have to wait.

> Get Root access.

• In Settings app, entering development option and select Root access.
  If you don't see these items, we activate:
  Touch repeatedly on About tablet > build number. From now on, initial setting screen show that option, plus Performance.

> Get Performance access.

• If you don't see these items, we activate:
  Touch repeatedly on About tablet > build number. From now on, initial setting screen show that option, plus Development option.

> Google Apps (Gapps).

• All Gapps packages available are virtually identical.
  Only differ, from each other, in the amount of installed applications.
  Two different packages must be never installed as likely to cause Google applications FC.
• The Dhollmen Gapps, being valid for any Rom, are specifically adapted for installation on it.

> Viper4 - Convolver - IRS.

• This application controls the System Sound FX.
  It also includes a number of advanced pre-equalizer settings (made by others) that are the IRS whose installation files requested.
  Access to Convolver (manager of the IRS) is obtained by selecting the option Expert in Experience Settings.
• Using another equalizer (provided by external applications) usually interfere with it.
  You can only have one active equalizer in the system, but if you want to use another one, kindly Viper4 can be turned off.

> Restoring backups.

• It is very common Titanium Backup (or similar) problems in Rom.
  If backup /data partition are made and, after a change of Rom, restored, usually side effects will occur.
  In this directory and subdirectories it contains, there are many configuration files and internal databases.
  When it comes to a specific application should not be a problem as long as it is not part of the Rom.
  When sub-directories containing settings are restored, the likelihood of problems increases exponentially.
  For example, all Roms have a Settings application, but the content of his configurations differs between them and is not interchangeable.
• Under no circumstances you should restore /system partition apps.

I do not want to look like I refuse to answer it, but now I'm not focused on as I solved each of the bugs I found.
Note that I have made several thousand code modifications by adding, modifying or deleting lines.
I started my work on past July, then I abandoned her to get involved in Carbon and then restarted in past October.
When I got the initial repo version this included numerous previous changes.

If your bearings me a little about these problems, I can try to locate code sections related and, perhaps then, will serve you as an aid.

Can someone else with a 3113 or 3110 running this ROM test their mic to see if its working properly?
I went to use Google now an noticed it could not hear me. Then went to sound recorder, same results. Just to be sure, I opened pitchlab, an app I use to tune my guitar and a few other instruments and still no response from mic. Didn't see it in "known bugs" in the thread so that's why I'm asking. I did compare the libs and modules for mic from a previous nandroid of aokp that i know the mic worked just to make sure it was all there. All is there, like it should be..

Ill pastebin a logcat if noone else reports this but I figured I'd ask first.

For reference I installed it clean like so:
Did a full format of
/system
/cache
/data
/sdcard

Then installed the latest ROM.zip and gapps from first post. Everything else in the ROM works beautifull. Fast and smooth. Using for about three days as a daily driver before I noticed the mic problem. Didn't experience any other bugs and I have been through every setting in customization available to get it setup how I like.

P.S. using built-in kernel. And no Xposed or modules

Edit: Fixed.. updated my recovery and re-flashed a clean flash. Rom works quite nice. Fast and smooth. Ill report bugs if I find any.

 

[rod555]

Stable , fast and good battery life. Tablet UI interface it's wonderful! I test mic later

What is wrong with this ROM? Few times during the day a self restart. You can not watch the movies 720p.
