So I downloaded the FIUI rom and gave it a try. While there were some aspects that I liked, there were others that were too annoying right now. Battery life seems decent, at least compared to Mokee. I only use one SIM card at the moment, so I don't know if both work. According to what I read in some forums, the answer is yes; but I cannot confirm this.
My issues after about 6 hours use:
- Internal keyboard seems tied to some of the bloatware. Delete the bloat and delete your keyboard ( I did this before logging into play so I couldn't download another keyboard).
- No back button (most annoying thing of all!)
- Very few options for customization
Back to Mokee and bad battery life for now.
I had the same issue with keyboard on another rom
kind of anoying... And I really like to first remove bloatware and then type my passwords
so I left a keyboard as apk on my memory card just in case
what I don't like in this rom -> the task manager appears with menu press and not with home long press this is kind of disturbing..
the task manager also has no option to kill all tasks
I'm also used to set my settings in the notification menu... here there are only the quick menus and the
notification, no settings menu :/
and last point : did not found how to have more than 3 icons at the bottom of the screen
by the way, are you speaking of mokee 4.4 or 5.0 ?
Mokee 4.4
I agree with the observations you make as well.

New to this forum so apoligies if this post is in the incorrect place.
I rooted and installed CM9 last night and tried to follow the noob guide which was not that clear especially when you don't know what flash means. I know I am a real noob I ended up finding a great video by searching Samsung galaxy s2 root. Had all the links and latest version of cf root.
I have to say CM9 is what the S2 should of been like !
I have a few questions though. Sorry in advance if these are noobie questiins.
1. On stock ics for my device when i chose a picture from gallery for wallpaper it would let you choose if you wanted it in portrait or across 3 parts. Now I have a box which I have to adjust and I can never get the size correct !!!
2. How do I get a seperate picture on my lock screen.
3. How do I get camera to save to SD card , there is no option in camera settings ?? would this be because google devices have no sd slot ? is so how can i change this?
4. How do I get the cool unlock effect then after I do that get the pin option ?
5. Anyway of adjusting keyboard options like key size (way to small at the moment) and feedback as vibration is too strong at present.
6. How do I get folders in the app draw ? Can only do it on homescreen. Very annoying as could do this previously and I am ocd with these things.
7. Found that if I use the camera there is a very slight pink splodge in the center of the screen. Never had this before ?
8. No 3G but i do get the H symbol occasionallyy pop up??
9. Battery life poor and really really much worst whilst using gps.
10. gps takes at least 5 mins to get a signal on navigation / maps even when i have it fully on.
11. How can I get notification numbers on the text and email symbol on the homescreen ? beleive its on stock ics.
12. Anyone know if whilst in rom manager I can update to the latest nightly build and is this the best way to update my phone now i am on cm9 ?
13. Sometimes my homescreen swipes are inaccurate ?
14. keyboard presses sometimes dont vibrate but letter appears?
15. anyone know how to get music player to look like this. http://www.xda-developers.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/cm9-music.jpg?139d23. the cm9 one looks grey and dull and has less options.
16. my videos on my sd card wont play ??
17. lost notes which came with the s2? where can i find it ??
18. how can i get gestures like cm7
19. how can i change themes as the option seems to be unavailable in the menu e.g its there but wont let me press it ?/
Thanks in advance. I know there are lots of questions here and all the little things here won't put me off using cm9 as its sooo much better than stock !!
+1 with the inaccurate home screen swypes and also when turning a page in moon reader pro....

blimey.. well..
answers to some.. .
2. not at the moment
3. Cant at the moment (use ICS+ Camera from play store if you want that)
4. i guess you mean Faceunlock.. read the CM9 discussion thread lots of questions answered in the first post)
6. is being worked on in nova Launcher but no others at present..
7.KNOWN ISSUE for most people since the phone came out...
10. there is a GPS fix you can get but you just need to experiment with radios etc,... again search the CM9 discussion thread
11.. being worked on on various launchers not a CM9 issue (believe Nova and Apex are working on this)
19. Themes are not essential as it is only a nightly build ..
remember most of these issues are known about and are varying in importance on when they are worked on.
thanks
Thanks so much for the answers.
Any idea why my battery is draining so much since install of this rom ?

Let me google that for you
Google ?
No point using Google. If I had found the answer there then I would not have created the thread. I have also emailed / posted cm direct but they state they won't reply or that in so many words. I am assuming that battery life has reduced due to rom but don't know ? That's why this thread was created ?

And yet, his answer provided you with the information you needed to find out yourself.
Common cause of battery drain is wakelocks, and his provided google search linked you to a ton of threads and links which detail what to do to find out what is causing wakelocks, and how to try to prevent them from happening. That will improve battery life.
"No point in using Google".... C'mon, dude.

I was about to say this haha
how this mod is different from THIS
This is just different in one thing, not scrolling to down like Statusbar Scroll to Top
Does this classify as plagiarism?
Its funny when you think about it... iOS has this by default since forever, xD
But really cool framework
No more infinit scrolling to the top
Well... Don't think it was copied work as the developer didn't do his research it seems like...
Sent from my OnePlus One - Running Resurrection Remix (5.1.1) and AK kernel
But is it better than the older module we have? Because that one works really well, but not on all lists, and if there are a lot of images and stuff it lags a bit. Maybe this one uses a different method?
Does this one work with Chrome?
Guys, the xmod is open source by @MohammadAG: https://github.com/MohammadAG/Xposed-StatusBar-Scroll-To-Top | So this is not plagiarism (I think.), @wissam.az1 just improve. I confess that i've never used original xmod.
Not working on my htc one m8 with lollipop
@stevedensmore yes it works with all apps now just update to the latest version follow the instructions and it will work
dear @wissam.az1
new build did worked perfectly
but after some time it is not responding at all, on every app
Ya, this mod doesn't work on my Lollipop Samsung S5.
Not working on all apps. Googleplay, chrome, ucbrowser...
Uninstaled and installed again and nothing. Don't asking for supersu permission too.

Hey,
I'm new to XDA as user but have been lurking around for a while now.
Anyhow, I'm wondering if there is any way to get a notification pull down button on my navbar (on screen buttons). I'm not talking about a gesture shortcut or anything, just a 4th button.
I've tried the newest resurrect remix ROM which just received an update which included a notification button only the ROM isn't a daily driver. There are just to many bugs.
I'm open for suggestions and hope it's done with a simple xposed module but I've searched long enough to doubt it.
There are screens as attachments from the resurrect ROM to give a preview.
Try cm12.1

If u want someting stable then u will get that notification button in cm12.1 from MasterAwesome,
I believe its quite stable, or it is the most stable custom rom out there.
I recommend u flashing v11.

Are you sure?
I'm currently on CM13 and I have flashed build 12.0s from this thread (MasterAwesome's) http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-1-oneplus-x-t3254072
And I believe I've tried the button settings on both and both only had the search, power and menu option.
I could be wrong though, just asking for a confirmation
my bad!! iws wrong

I was changing so many roms now days, so i checked up cm12.1 11s again and saw that there was no notification button .
I been using different roms and i might have incountered this feature in some other rom other that RR.
Alright, too bad though.
Hopefully anyone else has a good rom / module / app / whatever for me to get this feature.
Anyone?
Not what you want but try nova launcher as it has a couple of options that you can play around with for quick notifications
Hi guys,
Read the recent news about CM14 being available for i9300. Amazed, I thought I'd have a look.
Noticed that it was only currently in BETA so opted for CM13 instead (Marshmallow).
As impressive as it is, that Marshmallow can run on an SIII, IMO... it is quick enough moving through homescreens, but when it comes to launching apps, it was taking roughly 5 seconds for a typical app.
More resource-hungry apps like Skype (always a slow starter), or Chrome, took about 8 seconds. I decided to revert back to my tried and trusted CM11.
Installed it, and it's looking a bit different to how I rememer, I might now being a slightly newer build than before, and some changes are welcome (app drawer icons stacked vertically, rather than swiping left-right through screens). It also looks a little marshmallowish in my opinon. All good!
However, I'm looking for a feature I truly miss: in my old KK, I used to be able to longpress on any screen, and click a 'HOME' icon to make that the sticky home screen. (hardware home button takes you to this screen).
my question: --------------- is this feature missing, along with the other cosmetic differences I mentioned, because of the newer build. Or is it maybe that I'm using a newer version of Gapps? (Im now using OpenGapps). When I browsed to the OpenGapps homepage it default selected OGapps 4.4 ARM. ---I would have thought that the 'sticky home' button I'm talking about would be more to do with the Launcher than Gapps?
Cheers if you can help

Can't help you with that, except to use an alternative launcher.
But besides, I think that's the wrong section for your question cuz this is the Developer Forum.
There is a Thread for cm11. I advice you to post your question there.
Good luck
Hi, I'm bought this phone recently and my previous one was a galaxy S5.
So when I moved to poco f1 a lot of features were missing so I have several problems:
1. I noticed that I can't see notifications (like whatsapp) in the notifications bar AND in the lock screen.
2. I can't open new folder in the launcher (only in the home screen).
3. notch disable.
Can I fix these problems somehow? (New rom?something else?)
please help me! I'm getting frustrated with this phone and I just bought it...
Thank you!

Yes for 1 and 3
Dont know for 2 but you get a laucher that alows that if the default one doesnt (I am on Pixel Experience so I can not check it)
Yeah Lineage OS fixes all the issues. You get notifications on the lockscreen and you get the icon for the first notification, after a 2nd notification comes in, it will change to a dot to show that you have multiple notifications. You can disable the notch by going to developer options and look for 'Simulate a display with a cutout' and select 'Hide'. I dont use the launcher that comes with it, I always install Nova Launcher, I've been using that launcher on all my phones for years. The free version is still very good, no need to buy the premium version. The included launcher with Lineage can probably handle folders normally, ive just never used it long enough to know if it does.
