[APK][PORT] S Voice ported to all Samsung devices! [June 5][Initial release]

Hi there
As you know, S Voice from SGS III isn`t working on any other device because of checking device model. The bad solution is to mod your build.prop to make android think you are using SGS III, but it can cause incorrect work in some apps.
What I have Done
I have decompiled SVoice.apk, changed all checkings of device model to make app think it is SGS III, built and signed new apk.
So now all you have to do is:
1. Delete old S Voice
2. Revert your build.prop to stock, if you have modded it
3. Install new apk (as usual app) from Google Drive or Mediafire
Issues:
Few actions aren`t working because of the incompatibility with some SGS III features.
Shortly, some apps or actions are not opening because S Voice can`t find Samsung`s Clock/Calendar/etc. It can be fixed only if these apps are ported to our devices.
Tested on my AOKP Galaxy S I with SGS III Addon (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1669190)
Please, test it on other devices and write me, if app doesn`t work

will all features be fixed in the future or is this a final app for us? anyway thanks for not messing the build.prop

will it install to internal SD?

Install as NORMAL apk, just launch it EDIT: it installs to internal SD
I can`t promise to fix everything, but i`ll try to fix some features

please upload on mediafire

Thank you for that...
I'm running 5.5 dark night and I installed the modified s-voice apk file you provided.
The application runs fine, however, I can't get some functionalities to work. For example, talkback don't work. Also, saying things like Hello, or tell me a joke doesn't work; only straight-forward commands...
Moreover, any hopes on getting the application working with double-tabbing?

[App] Prepay Widget - working?

Hi guys - is it working OK? There was an update that should now make it fully compatible witg the GSM S3.
.........................................................................................................................................................................
Hello everyone! I am the developer of Prepay Widget, a small app that allows you to monitor your account balance through USSD requests.
You can find more info about USSD on Wikipedia, but basically these are short, SMS-like messages used by most GSM and some CDMA providers to deliver information
or control account services. The actual information comes to you in the form of popup toasts, which thids app hides and parses into widgets.
You can find the apps landing page on XDA at the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12348102
However, i want to stress that its important that we get some device-specific feedback, so please post in this thread if you have issues,
this helps me keep track of bugs and requests better.
You can use the Lite version of the app - it has all the functionality of the full version apart from automatic updates (not really that important imo).
As I haven't got one of these phones in my pocket, I need some testers to track down problems. Please, use this thread to comment or
suggest features. It is my belief that addressing issues is best done individually by phone, so if something doesn't work, let me know and I will fix it ASAP.
Market link:
https://market.android.com/details?id=fahrbot.apps.ussd.widget.lite
Debugging:
Please use the "Write to developer" item in the Settings menu to send logs. Enable debugging, reproduce your error and then send the logs.
Make sure you include a description - the more detailed the description the better.
Screens:

Been usign it for quite some time now, full version. First on Razr XT910 and now on SGS3 with root.
No problems here. Widget set up to open the ap or to update balance works just fine.
Running BLG8

Thanks. Are you on a stock firmware?

Anything to report?

I downloaded your app and ran it, it updated fine whilst setting it up but now it never updates(just stuck on the circle) and my USSD codes don't work anymore when I type them in the dialer. It gives me the "connection problem or invalid MMI code" responce. Uninstalling did not help and I still get these issues dialing in the USSD code.
I was using 1.3.3.3 on Paranoid Andoid 1.992 and Siyah Kernel 1.52.

Are you in root mode?

Yes, Using SuperSU; It's says permissions have been granted.

Its probably supersu. Try this - uninstall, reboot, install. Make sure youve set ss to always grant permissions.
One a sidenote i dont recommend supersu.

It did not work, oh well, I guess I might switch over to another SU app later. Once I do, I'll let you know if it works or not.

Im afraid i cant recommend supersu. It really sucks atm, everyone has denounced it.

Hi,
i've been using prepay widget on ICS (galaxy s 3) for long w/o any probs.
now upgraded to JB XXDLI8 and it just stuck with adding ussd code (circling without any progress)
i did a uninstall and reinstall and it did not help (baseband DLI8, supersu installed)
what can i do?
P.S. when disabled root mode it worked fine. But how can get it work with root?

We dont support leaked firmware of any kind, ever. When a final official build is released, i will look into the issue.

hi
updated to official release XXDLIB, problem still remains
when granted root it just stucks on adding ussd code, without root it works but updating screen is annoying.
should i send you error log? would you mind?

Yes, with a description.

Ok, sent it by write to developer after enabling error log.
Hope you can find the source of problem

Installed and worked perfectly on CarbonRom KK nightly
But there is a problem, Every time i reboot, i get the "Android in Upgrading- Optimizing app" message.
It optimizes my apps and takes a long time (I use ART)
It only optimizes user apps , not system apps
It appears on each reboot.
Luckily I had a nandroid backup.
Retried installing the Z Keyboard again , the appeared again.
Does any one know what the problem is ?

Switched to Dalvic and this fixed the problem.
The 2 files that are being put into "System/Framework" are the cause of this problem.

Yeah I knew switching to dalvik would fix it but art makes too much of a difference on my device, even with dalvik and bionic patches applied art still gives my device a much smoother real world feel. Never ran any benchmarks to compare but real world feel is very noticeable on my n4 YMMV of course. Thanks though

[ROOT][5.x.x]Ram management/Multitasking fix for Galaxy S6 Edge+ (all variants)

Update:
So after updating to marshmallow Sammy actually fixed multitasking. I didn't use or even try these settings on android 6.x.x but they should work, if someone tried and tested them on marshmallow leave a comment (post) please
Hey guys so first I want to say most credits for this tutorial goes to this guy, (so you can view original thread and thank him), I'm only going to share, a bit modified version (with some values taken from Xperia Z3 build.prop), maybe better explained for some people.
So short and to the point, it's a quick fix so your phone can multitask up to around 15 apps without closing any of them(in result also increasing battery life as there's almost no need to reload apps, check video at the end of this post to see it in work). The only thing you need is root and around 15 minutes of time if you've never done anything like that. Oh and arter97 kernel is also very helpfull to keep this working as good as possible as it adds some battery and multitasking improvements as well.
So all you need:
ROOT
Custom Kernel (optional but worth it)
Any file manager that supports root (I'm using Root Browser)
First things first:
Open your root browser and navigate to system/ find and make backup of build.prop file (just copy it somewhere on your internal SD so you can always replace it with default one)
Ok now go back to system/ and open build.prop (Root Browser has built in RB text editor so use it)
First find these 4 lines:
Code:
ro.config.dha_cached_min=4
ro.config.dha_empty_min=8
ro.config.dha_lmk_scale=2.363
ro.config.dha_pwhitelist_enable=1
and delete them.
Now find these lines and change values to shown below:
Code:
ro.hwui.texture_cache_size=72
ro.hwui.layer_cache_size=48
ro.hwui.path_cache_size=32
ro.hwui.shape_cache_size=4
ro.hwui.gradient_cache_size=1
ro.hwui.drop_shadow_cache_size=6
ro.hwui.r_buffer_cache_size=8
ro.hwui.text_small_cache_width=1024
ro.hwui.text_small_cache_height=1024
ro.hwui.text_large_cache_width=2048
ro.hwui.text_large_cache_height=2048
dalvik.vm.heapstartsize=8m
dalvik.vm.heapgrowthlimit=192m
dalvik.vm.heapsize=512m
dalvik.vm.heaptargetutilization=0.75
dalvik.vm.heapminfree=512k
dalvik.vm.heapmaxfree=8m
Now add these lines at the end of your build.prop:
Code:
ro.config.fha_enable=true
ro.sys.fw.use_trim_settings=true
ro.sys.fw.empty_app_percent=50
ro.sys.fw.trim_empty_percent=100
ro.sys.fw.trim_cache_percent=100
ro.sys.fw.bservice_enable=true
ro.sys.fw.bservice_limit=5
ro.sys.fw.bservice_age=5000
ro.sys.fw.trim_enable_memory=2147483648
sys.config.spcm_enable=true
sys.config.spcm_gcm_kill_enable=true
sys.config.spcm_db_enable=true
sys.config.spcm_db_launcher=true
Last 4 lines thanks to @kossiewossie
Now save this file and just check if permissions are the same (should be "rw-r--r--" if not, correct) and reboot.
Done!
Also check my video to see how it works (starting from 0:24):

Let me be the first one to say that this works really well. I have tried to open alot of apps that are using quite alot of RAM, and i haven't seen anyone of them reload yet while switching between them after i did this modification to my build.prop file :good:.
So far so good.

im not yet rooted but whenever i am this looks good, can this also be incorporated into a kernel or ROM to save having to manually do this?

@jonny68
Yes but it's all up to rom developer if he will include this tweak.

Glad to finally have a rebuttal against the "well, my z3c doesn't have to reload apps"! Thanks for this.

Works perfect ?

Changed/added these tweaks to build.prop via PC. Copied it to system/ and rebooted - completely forgot to set the right permission. Was caught in bootloop but luckily I had nandroid backup. Restored system and did it again. Will test it out and report results.
EDIT: Does anyone else receive Security Notice notifications after changing build.prop with the changes provided? It says "Unauthorized actions have been detected". When I click on it, it opens Device Security and says threat found. I can restart the device to undo any unauthorized changes. When I hit restart, it boots into recovery (PhilZ is what I have). It doesn't show any changes. When I reboot, the notification pops up after a couple of mins. How can I deal with it?

@Krokogator it was the SecurityLogAgent giving that notification. I've frozen it with Root Uninstaller and it disappeared. Unfortunataly I can't seem to delete the preinstalled apps that were on my phone. I will try with TB in a moment.

I followed all your instructions but unfortunately it doesn't really seem to work on my end. When I open an app and go back into it, it still reloads it.
I double/triple checked I edited everything and added the lines accordingly.
Using arter kernel.

Krokogator have been using this mod from yesterday night on my edge normal G925F
It's amazing. it really works and keep the app open as i left them in background.
some little times Instagram have been reload but all the other apps opened from where i have left them.

Remove Chinese in Apps

Anybody knows, how can we remove chinese words in apps like phone dialer, U Health, GT Browser?
Can we find all apps in english?
Can we use Z1 international apps in our device?

You can delete most of them and replace with Play Store apps.

Problem solved. It's a modified version of the system, these apps have been removed and when installing them manually they didn't work.
You can install the original ROM, without having to root or anything, just google for '[HOWTO] Flash a Stock ZUI ROM (ZUK Z2 Pro Z2121 only!)', should be the first result.
make sure to use method 2, method 1 won't work, put the downloaded files in folders with short names on C:\ and don't use space or any symbols in the folder names. Also download the files from the link of the second method, not the first one, the password for the archive is

The system will be in chinese, with english available (for english language go to settings, then the option with the cog symbol, then second option, then first option), the translation for other languages were horrible anyway. You will have the newest version of the software with all the app, including U-Health etc. You will also be able to get future updates on the phone itself, which isn't possible with the 'international ROM'. Also stuff like permission manager will work, but you have to install the google apps yourself, which is very easy after googling for a tutorial.

I did it and my phone works. Beautiful.
On the other, only a question.
When I try to check if there is a new upgrade a message appears in my mobile.
The message said: Your mobile has been root, isn't available upgrade.
Do you know if the mobile is rooted when you do the flashing with the method that you posted.
Thanks advanced.

Why these chinese manufacturer put Chinese on their devices even on international model.
Very frustrating.

I don't get that message, for me it just says 'No Update available' and Rootchecker also says, that I don't have root access.
Maybe the shop you bought it from rooted it? You could try unrooting it.
Also when you want to update with the System Update app, you need to be connected to a chinese VPN

If the shop rooted it then it likely has a reseller ROM.
