I found a bug. When I try to send a long message, the messaging app will force close then mobike data will bug too. I have to restart the phone for the messaging app and the mobile data to work again

i found two bugs:

1) the menu button function can't be changed in the settings (if you change the function to something else it will stay opening the recent apps menu)

2) in the camera app swipe from the right to see the taken pictures and then swipe again to see the next picture a screen flickering will happen (the problem will go if you zoomed the picture out)

In general the ROM is masterpiece
thank you Bauner !

Hi @bauner

I am planning on temporarily going back to stock Jelly Bean using Odin. I have re-partitioned my device using lanchon tool and I was wondering if flashing a stock ROM would affect the re-partition of my internal storage? In other words, would I have to re-partition again when I flash a custom ROM back?
Apologies if my question is a little off topic but I didn't know where else to ask.

Many thanks in advance,

Cheers :)

I noticed that when the YouTube app data reaches 100mb you will not be able to watch videos (the problem i mentioned) until you clear the app data.
i don't know maybe this will help ?
best regards

If you did not modify the /preload partition you can install a stock rom on the new partition layout and you don't need to repartition again.

hi bauner
sorry for replaying too much but i want to correct this replay because the problem isn't about the app data size

but when i open YouTube and then close the app and open it again i won't be able to watch videos until i clear the app data
i think you found the problem since the first reply but i just want to correct my mistake ?

As always thanks bauner !

And what version of recovery should one have in order to do this?
I am going to flash the stock firmware with Odun. So I'm pretty positive it doesn't really matter what recovery you are using, As you have to put the device in download mode, connect it to your PC via micro USB cable, and finally flash the firmware.
lf I'm not mistaken the recovery is irrelevant given it's all done through a computer.
Cheers ?

Not the stock rom, a 4.1.2 custom rom.
Oh I only just saw this. Disregard my previous reply to your original question.
Generally speaking, if you're going to flash a custom ROM, I am pretty positive you can use any major custom recovery such as twrp or cwm. But it's always a good idea to check the relevant thread, because different ROM may require different files so I would double check just to be on the safe side.
Hope that helps.

Cheers ?
