[FIX][KitKat 4.4.x] GTA: San Andreas

Hey guys I just wanted to post a fix to the San Andreas kitkat 4.4.x related crashes. This probably applies to other devices but is directed at the galaxy Nexus.
So from a (string | grep \\.so) of the gta libs, you can estimate the directly related system libs(.so extension): libc, libm, libz, libdl, liblog, libGLESv2, libGLESv1_CM, libEGL, libstdc++. These work in 4.3 but not for gtasa in 4.4. With some luck you should be able to copy them from a 4.3 /system/lib directory to your 4.4 installation. Just extract them from a 4.3 flash zip and copy them to /system/lib in aroma. I downloaded slimbean 4.3.1 final release (website should be slimroms.net) and copied the above mentioned libs to get this to work.
I'd put together a flash zip but this may involve some tinkering. Also make sure to copy the /system/bin/mksh file (system shell bound to libc.so) from slimbean 4.3 to your current kitkat 4.4 /system/bin directory.
Another thing to mention is that you probably need a cracked apk to run gtasa on the galaxy nexus whether you bought this game or not since the galaxy nexus isn't officially supported even though it runs perfectly fine. I'm using version 1.2. You may also mod your /system/build.prop file to emulate a Nexus 4 or 5. Duckduckgo "nexus 4 build.prop" and change the first bulk of the build.prop entries to match the Nexus 4 IF you don't have a cracked apk and IFF you still have issues.
When you start the game, It should load up to the social club page if you already got the games 2.5GB data in /sdcard/Android/obb, otherwise let it download. Then you click "offline mode" and it starts up. Yay!!! No crash!!
I recommend these settings once you're in: special effects on medium, draw distance 100%, analog controls, classic traffic, brightness at 80%.
And use the Dirty V kernel at 1350MHz. If you use performance control app, set readahead to 512MB bfq and then go to the last tab, click "edit shell command", and add "VMALLOC=1024mb" to increase video memory from 768 stock. To change gpu freq to 384MHz, open term and do "(print '1' >| /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/gpu_oc)".
I'm really happy to have finally figured this out and hope this helps y'all mega GTA fans such as myself.
(***Remember to chmod +r any files you change/add and modify the system in aromafm, not android runtime. [\golden advice])
Viel Spaß!
EDIT: I posted a zip containing the libs Im using. Just extract it with Total Commander and copy the files *.so from the ...lib... folder to /system/lib. I also included the apk I'm using which should allow those letdown galaxy nexus customers to play the game on the Galaxy Nexus.

(APP) supervideo camera with 4KUHD enabled.

Hi everyone now that i also own an Xperia x i have found that it has a lot of features either missing or turned off when compared to my Z2! The first thing i noticed was that 4K was not even showing up! I have modified the supervideo app and it now works perfectly so i will share it with you, i will share more as i go along.
Instructions: (must be rooted)!
Download at bottom of post.
1. Download the zip.
2. Extract the apk.
3. Copy the app to sdcard.
4. Adb push or manually copy to /system/priv-app/SuperVideoCamera-xxhdpi-release either backup or over write your original.
5. Set permissions to 0644 rw-r-r- and owner/group to 0 - root.
6. Backup or delete the odex file if it exists (oat/arm64)
7. Reboot
If it goes wrong then enjoy the responsibility of your actions, if it works for you then 'happy days'.

what did you change in the sources?

I just changed the bools to match how it is called from within the smali.

f5122 can use it?

Doesn't work at 7.1.1 concept. It records with very dark and inverted colors, videos are stuttering.

Try port it to 7.x.x

I have been trying desperately to get this working on Android 7.1.1 but given the symptoms experienced I think it is being blocked from full access to the camera modules by drm, I don't think the old drm fix works properly on this fw version as the credmgr tables are empty! There is a new drm fix in the xz forum so I am hoping that can be ported over to our devices as I am sure that drm is the problem here.

Need I go back to Marshmallow for use native 4K Video native App, well?

At the moment for native yes, there is workaround and that is to use open camera for 4k video capture.

How to use Samsung Watch with devices that have less than 1.5GB of RAM

Well I bought a samsung galaxy watch for my dear but she was not able to connect her watch to her f*cking samsung phone! After some investigations found that it's the hardcoded memory limit of the Galaxy Wearable application which doesn't allow android devices which have less than 1.5 GB of memory. Finally I am able to pair the watch and phone and here how it goes:
Step 1 - Prepare decompile environment
- Ensure jdk installed, can be downloaded at at the url: www(dot)oracle(dot)com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html
- Ensure apktool installed, can be downloaded at at the url: ibotpeaches(dot)github(dot)io/Apktool/
Step 2 - Download Galaxy Wearable apk
- This is the app that connects your watch and android device which also have hardcoded memory limit with no reason! Can be downloaded at at the url: www(dot)apkmirror(dot)com/apk/samsung-electronics-co-ltd/samsung-gear/
Step 3 - Decompile Galaxy Wearable apk
- Open a terminal window and run below command
java -jar /path/to/apktool_x.x.x.jar d /path/to/com(dot)samsung(dot)android(dot)app(dot)watchmanager_x(dot)x(dot)xx(dot)xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx_minAPI18\(nodpi\)_apkmirror(dot)com(dot)apk
- This will create a folder in the working directory with the name of apk, like: com(dot)samsung(dot)android(dot)app(dot)watchmanager_x(dot)x(dot)xx(dot)xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx_minAPI18\(nodpi\)_apkmirror(dot)com which will be called as "/path/to/apkdecompiled" here after.
Step 4 - Change the hardcoded memory limit
- Open the smali folder with text editor like sublime
- Search for "0x4098000000000000L" or "1536"
- Find should match with the HostManagerUtils.smali file at /path/to/apkdecompiled/smali/com/samsung/android/app/twatchmanager/util/HostManagerUtils.smali
- Replace "0x4098000000000000L" with "0x4050000000000000L" which updates the hardcoded limit to 64MB. This converter url: babbage(dot)cs(dot)qc(dot)cuny(dot)edu/IEEE-754(dot)old/Decimal(dot)html can be used to calculate value for a different number.
- Save the file.
Step 5 - Recompile Galaxy Wearable apk
- Open a terminal window and run below command
java -jar /path/to/apktool_x.x.x.jar b /path/to/apkdecompiled
- This will create an apk file in the /path/to/apkdecompiled/dist directory with the name of apk, like: com(dot)samsung(dot)android(dot)app(dot)watchmanager_x(dot)x(dot)xx(dot)xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx_minAPI18\(nodpi\)_apkmirror(dot)com(dot)apk
Step 6 - Sign the recompiled Galaxy Wearable apk
- Open a terminal window and run below command
keytool -genkey -v -keystore galaxy-wearable.keystore -alias galaxy -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000
- then run below command
jarsigner -verbose -sigalg SHA1withRSA -digestalg SHA1 -keystore galaxy-wearable.keystore /path/to/apkdecompiled/dist/com(dot)samsung(dot)android(dot)app(dot)watchmanager_x(dot)x(dot)xx(dot)xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx_minAPI18\(nodpi\)_apkmirror(dot)com(dot)apk galaxy
Step 7 - Install the recompiled Galaxy Wearable apk
- Upload the file to your phone and install the apk
- You will also need the Galaxy Watch Plugin apk, can be downloded at the url: www(dot)apkmirror(dot)com/apk/samsung-electronics-co-ltd/galaxy-watch-plugin/
- Enjoy your watch!
No idea about java, apktools, text editor etc? Just follow these easy steps (at your own risk):
- Download the already recompiled apk at at the url: uploadfiles(dot)io/o4dty and install
- Download the galaxy watch plugin apk at at the url: www(dot)apkmirror(dot)com/apk/samsung-electronics-co-ltd/galaxy-watch-plugin/galaxy-watch-plugin-2-2-05-18102551-release/galaxy-watch-plugin-2-2-05-18102551-android-apk-download/download/ and install.
- Enjoy your watch!
P.S.: Replace all "(dot)"s with a ".".

Thanks for the instructions but what Samsung phone has less than 1.5gb ram nowadays?

Actually less than and equal.

Thank you

If the reason is memory limit, same steps would work quite well.

File does not exist at that URL. Please supply a new link. Thanks

Second that... Thanks in advance

I'm not a Java guy and could not sign the apk.
I tried to download the apk from the link but the link is not working anymore.
Please give us a new link to download the apk, that will help a lot of the smartwatch users.
Thanks.
