Root [DISCONTINUED] MegaTron 6.2.5

I just re flashed this rom today. I hosed my CTMod ROM by hunting for wakelocks a little too vigorously. :o

Oh well. I figured a clean install would be best and while I was at it, decided to go back to this one. Now I just have to wait until the update to check out the changes.

I will definitely welcome the swipe to clear notifications feature! And look forward to seeing what else lies in store.
 
I'm not sure if you can, but I think it'd be pretty cool if you could add an animation for when the screen rotates :D

Some launchers will do that. I know ADW will.

From past experience, some screen animations can cause the phone to lag. I say leave them out of the ROM and if the user chooses to have a screen transition animation, use a launcher that allows for it.
 
I've got a suggestion (or at least an observation) I miss having the feature of being able to send a text message directly as a result of an incoming call. I know that feature is not in the stock ROM which is probably why it is not in any of the derived ROMs.

But I like the feature of being able to pick a message from a list and instantly text the caller you will get back to them.
 
Did anyone else experience the buggy flash screen when entering setting menu in maps apk? ???? The screen would flash on/off rapidly, therefore preventing the selection of any further options via touch .......also when loging in facebook and when entering forecast in theweatherchannel apk
The way I would get passed it is clearing the apps data but later it would do it again
It would be great if you [chevanlol360]fixed this bug because megatron is a really great ROM .thanks

Never had that problem. Try reflashing
 
Finally got my phone back from the police after they found it on someone they arrested. Surprise, surprise.

Long story short after I wiped it I noticed that Megatron was out, As a Transformers G1 fan my inner child and nerd started jumping up and down.

After I flashed Megatron on it and got everything installed and so forth. I noticed that things started hanging, meaning they took a while to load or they spike CPU usage majorly, I experienced this in CTMOD as well as the JB ROM kicking around out there. Is this a normal issue with the phone? I don't have a ton of programs running at boot, thanks to Autorun Manager. What I do have running is Norton Antivirus, Beautiful widgets and GrooveIP. I have the same setup going on my Galaxy S3 T999 and it doesn't hang one bit, I even had the same settings on a crappy Samsung Admire. So what gives?

OK check this out. Do a factory reset, wipe cache, and wipe dalvik cache. Then go to ADVANCED and select REBOOT RECOVERY. Once it has booted back into recovery, flash the Megatron zip. Let it boot up fully before doing anything to the phone. I let mine sit about 8 minutes after the boot animation stops.

Use Bloodawn's newest Hyper kernel and use the Hyper kernel toolbox that comes with it. Make sure you enable ZRAM and all of the other goodies he has added to the kernel.

Please note that Norton will slow the phone down for 2 reasons. It uses a good bit of the cpu and it also takes up a good bit of RAM. I wouldn't use it if I were you.

Also, there is a good app on Google Play called FastReboot. It's free and will reboot all of your running apps without rebooting the phone. It is a good way to free up RAM.

I have installed this app but I was wondering if this is like a "task manager" (which is for the most part something that I avoid) basically I'm wondering if or how this is different from a task manager.

And do you just use it when you start to experience lag? Or more often than that?
 
If Chev Have A Samsung Galaxy S2 Then Maybe It Can Happen


LOL. Yeah, I don't think I can give mine up. I got lucky buying from boost on this one. Brand new for $150. Oh well, still have my marquee laying around for the wife. Chev did megatron for marquee without having the phone at first.
 
Any chance we will see Megatron on the S2?

The Samsung Galaxy S2 has so many different ROMs out that you can choose from including AOKP running JellyBean 4.2.2. Why the hell would you wanna run Megatron? lol :confused:

To Answer your question, The Samsung Galaxy S2 will never see MegaTron but not because of the amount of better ROMs you could choose from, but because i don't have the phone. The LG Marquee was lucky to see 6.0 As well as the ZTE Warp With TweakNation 1.0GM. It's difficult developing for a phone that you don't have which is why i had plans to Stop Supporting the Marquee with future MegaTron updates. Some pitched in money for me to get a Marquee and sjc11221 was nice enough to donate his to me. I Dont have the money to buy a S2 from boost and i highly doubt someone would donate a 300 phone to me. So the chances of the SG2 seeing MegaTron is highly unlikely.

I understand man. The only reason I wanted megatron was because I know your rom is stable. Honestly i hate looking on xda because most of those devs are jerks. So if I were to ask them questions I feel as if they'd be rude to me. Also the jb roms I have looked at seem unfinished and buggy as all get out. I did root my s2 with framaroot (?). Oh well I am very pleased with s2 & version of jb I am running. Appreciate all you've done chev.
