HALO alpha 4 rolling out

This perhaps can be called a pre-beta already as it marks a big step from the previous alphas. I guess this is the first time that even very picky people will start to use it - although much work needs to be done for sure.

I give you a small rundown:

- This is the first HALO build with options, you find them under Settings/Toolbars/Statusbar

- Option #1 can hide HALO from sight completely after inactivity, its for those that want to use it as a ticker.

- Option #2 can reverse the gestures that drive its interaction. Its set to reversed by default now, that means tap-drag selects tasks, doubletap-drag or longpress-drag can move it around. Unchecking the options reverses that. In either way, a single tap launches the current halo'ed task and when dragging through tasks if you lift your finger tasks will be launched as well. if you drag back while tasking the last real notification that came in will pop (but not launch).

- When selecting tasks HALO will temporarily show all statusbar icons to make it easier for you. That should be your point of reference, just follow the icons as they light up and select what you want.

- Minor fixes, it dims a little again, some things that wouldnt cause HALO to pop do now, tasking is more straight forward and probably bug-less by now.

Rom is ready for mako, others will follow.

As we slowly wrap up Phase 3 this is what will happen now

1. We divide our efforts. Our designer +Arz Bhatia will start to dress it up. Everyone not involved with design will go low level and weed out activity-related issues (HALO apps dont react to orientation changes, some get dimmed inside, some still cause a black screen for a sec when popping up, the install-button-overlay-gate, etc.).

2. When these things are cleared it will get a few more options, especially a WHITELIST which users might be able to turn into a black-list by themselves. HALO will be offically beta by then.

3. We will try to get this through Googles compatibility test suite. If we are 100% sure that our work is safe and clean we will release source. We flag the feature as stable,move on and invent the next big thing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MikeCriggs:
Me and Jesco will be taking turns posting builds every other day. Today is Jesco's day, I'm going to go spend some time with my son :).

I'll be building 3.50 fresh after a "make clean", so expect a second build tomorrow from source with ported features and no boot loops :P.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] -Jesco-:
honey , you're one step late ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MikeCriggs:
I edited the post to let everyone know that we'll be taking care of things for a little bit :).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rrohanjs:
can someone confirm ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] -Jesco-:
didnt happen to mine , i got my whatsapp on black status bar and green icons ,

it turns into that when i click on my halo whatsapp
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dxdiag32:
hey dude ,you built this from source? i can't get halo via my owe build:crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] agayabag:
so, sir [MENTION=4710962]-Jesco-[/MENTION] what does file to push manually? Means I need to download both files then I push the files inside the .rar package to the rom or how? clueless here.

thanks for the build anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kponto:
Hi, i have the latest pa version installed (3.5), and i just noticed that i don't get to install or update any application downloaded from aptoide, even having the "unknown sources" ticked in the security tab. I had this working fine in previous pa versions. Can someone help me, please?

You mean the halo feature is not working in the new build which u posted few post back with alpha4.rar ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thedudejdog:
Can someone be bothered to read the thread?

:p

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 91franz:
In the end Aaron is not compiling an official release?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sam razzy:
Wait for bigbro... I dunno whether Aaron will compile build for us or not. But v have some unofficial pre beta build..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] -Jesco-:
if you download rom no need for manual zips .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 91franz:
I will wait :) but I'm going crazy :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] -Jesco-:
It would be the same files even if Aaron published them
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ruggerxpunk:
I can confirm this (full) build is working fine for me.

This is what I did.

Full Wipe

Install Alpha4

Install Gapps

Reboot System

Reboot back into Recovery

Install AK SKL v245

Install LouderNexus

Install Framework1 Animation Mod (from Jesco)

Reboot System

Profit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] musashihatred:
Nope. As far as i know aaron holds coding. And grouper i guess, and besides bigbro is our maintainer now. While bigbro compiles official releases, it will be jesco and mike to give us nightlies or alike which is cool.

Ill be spendingore thanks to you mike and jesco! Thanks buddies.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DriftGT:
That is great. I really want to try AP with HALO,

Alpha 4 is working great?

They will release BETA version soon right?

But I think I will do a backup from my CM and try this :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] musashihatred:
As stated in the g+ update, it can now be considered as beta as they have now built the main function. Their next aim would be stabilizing and bug fixing + more function.

Give a go brother :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tabish84:
Should i dirty flash?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dehosti:
What this Framework1 Animation Mod does?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DriftGT:
I never used PA but seams like a great ROM with lots of options. But all this options dont make the phone run a little slow? I dont want my phone with PA slower than CM
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] -Jesco-:
it changes every animation to be sliding in and out of the phone instead of the animation you see when you exit an app ./
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] musashihatred:
Can be :)

Changes animation for the whole system :) its a custom one be vincino.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kponto:
Sorry, i did the search related to update of apps from aptoide but could not find the answer.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] musashihatred:
It doesnt :) they designed it for smoother experience xD
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Frank_9.5:
The only way to know it is trying. :) trust me, you won't regret. After you get used to different dpis, hybrid mode etc you won't go back to CM! Anyway, the rom is very fast and doesn't have lots of customizations like other roms but many innovative features. The last stable version is the 29 April's one but you can also try one on the last alphas to try out the new halo function.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DriftGT:
That looks fantastic. I will flash it when I had some time. And the Halo feature looks awesome and from What I read its really better in the New alpha 4
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sam razzy:
Where is that animation zip ? Can you post it here ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] -Jesco-:
we use the same source , thus it would be the same , I'm using official PA source , this would be counted as a official one if I'm a maintainer or a team member , but I'm not .

its won't affect any performance or speed you won't screw up
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] musashihatred:
HERE's Jesco's uploaded frameworkanimation by vincino

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Garner:
So I gather this build is working and has the latest halo? Sorry for being lazy guys had a few beers etc "hiccup"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pjodor:
Yes, that is what is said, I haven't tried it yet. Downloading it now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maliceomalice:
im on the unofficial 12th May build,Alpha 4 if not mistaken and i cant seems to get that small window pop-up feature. also when i click on the halo bubble, it dont take me to the apps or showing the pop-up. it just emerge, and then sink back to my screen border. does this sounds right?

Edit: sorry about posting this here. i just remembered that the builder of this unofficial (Jesco, if i remember correctly) asked to post on his G+ regarding this unofficial build only after i posted this. :o:o
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lesp4ul:
Jesco, could you also make BB10 style lockscreen to replace that boring ics lockscreen in one or separate mod for latest PA? Just asking, it would great i think combined with your slide animation mod. Thanks :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Royal King:
Hell yes. I've been waiting for it since some time :eek:

Jesco, plesae!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stewroids:
How does one get the square icon theme that I see in all the videos? All my icons are just stock :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] odavans:
I do not know why, but I'm sure we will not have alpha 4

sorry for my english
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DieGo316:
Our Gnex is supported when will eventually get it not at the same time as mako but soon, aaron maybe is building alpha 4 for us cause bigbro is bussy with his exams so dont post things like that, devs have lifes.

Is it possible to use trebuchet again instead of Nova?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Benji1983:
biggest bug is all apps are fc :-( i will now do a clean wipe maybe it works

greetz benji
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] resynx:
Thanks Moles! Just about to boot into 1.1b and will flash your fix once it's posted. My Google Drive mirror has been updated and will add your fix also :)

try fixing permissions instead of wiping first
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ofsinreno:
"Google Wallet is denied superuser permissions"

I haven't used Google Wallet yet but now my device is apparently "Unsupported". I don't know if this was an issue before as I have never tried to use it before.

did it already :-(

SwiftKey has new beta, anyone can update it with the fix?

Btw, can someone else uses the SwiftKey post a poll on their Page?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
i heard this is the case for all rooted roms. it will say that but probably still work. we dont have nfc in our country, cannot test if its true.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
does not sound so good. i tried normal flashing and fullwipe flashing. both seem to be ok.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Benji1983:
hi moles

i specified the apps are fcìng

its apex launcher pro , tibu, and on lockscreen i got a random reboot what the hell i don`t know why :-(

maybe i did something wrong on flashing process

1 cleaned both caches

2 flashed rom ( dirty flash)

3 cleared both caches just in case

4 rebooted

greetz benji
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TunedFish:
"Unsupported device" is normal for rooted devices: it means Google is not responsible if your account is hacked.

Google Wallet does not need super user permissions, so just deny them. it should work fine if you deny su.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
does a fullwipe help? have you tried?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Benji1983:
on my way :-)

you got pm from me ^^
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Juno-First:
I did a full wipe, cleared devlink cache with Franco 174 & get no FC & DPI settings seem fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brunoisa10:
So must we wait for a fix ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] resynx:
You can flash the ROM now and flash the fix later when it is posted.

navigation bar toggle flashlight doesnt work for me.. anyone tried ?

the bigger navigationbar is great. and the cm9 weather in lockscreen is great, too.

thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ofsinreno:
I am not used to Trebuchet, been using Nova for a while now. Can I add another icon to the dock? And can I remove the app drawer icon from the center position of the dock? I would like to have |Phone|GrooveIP|Google Voice|SVoice|Gmail| Chrome| in the dock positions, and I don't see the need to have two different shortcuts to open the app drawer- we already have one in the upper right-hand corner.

Understand- I am not making requests for changes, just wondering if this is possible with the Trebuchet Launcher. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SahilC:
I know you've already answered this, but don't you guys think Halo in the lockscreen would be a good idea? At least for people that don't use a Pin or password? You could reply to whatsapp or something without even locking your phone!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SahilC:
Sorry for three posts in a row, but I've never gotten the hang of using Pie one handed. It just seems hard for me. Sometimes it feels tapping is faster, but I really wanna use pie!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] orbit09:
You can download icons from Google Play. Then use some launcher, for example Apex or Nova, and in the settings choose the icons from the Google Play.

I don't think so

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chickentuna:
Our maintainer is busy right now that's why you don't see any latest maguro build. We're lucky we have people like Jesco whose compiling unofficial build for us.

We will get official builds once bigbrother is done with his exams

Someone should clear me... ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nachtschicht:
Nova can only change the transitions on the home screen but not throughout the system. For changing those you need a framework hack.

These icon packs work with the theme engine of the ROM or do I need Apex or other 3rd party launchers? I like the icon packs but not a fan of third party launchers.

You can user this app to set icon packs as the default icon throughout the entire OS (so you can user the stock launcher, yet still have a custom icon pack)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] omid900:
Hello guys, I have been trying last PA rom since Friday, and love the Halo feature combining with pie.

I know that it still in alpha stage, but after the unofficial releases today I see people stating that halo works good and don't have any problems!!

Well since I use this feature I always have tapatalk force close when trying to open it from halo notification!! So I search this forum and only see one guy complaining about that, but see no answers!! I guess it just a bug that it was not fix yet!

Well thank you all deva that are doing a wonderful job here, as well as the people that compile this "nightlys"

Thank you

^No one has cleared up what the manual files to be pushed means either. :x been reading a few pages back and only seen one person install the framwork.jar file only. D:

Nvm finally found his reply "if you download rom no need for manual zips ."

So i pushed the files from -Jesco-'s link, and I see the options for halo however halo brings me to the home screen every time and does not show up on top of whatever app I'm on.

Flashed jescos built dirty over the 5th March built and it's working lake a charm. thanks you for building :thumbup:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sam razzy:
Manual means - opposite of automatic - it means that u can do it yourself..(my own) meaning find dictionary

So here manual zip means zip files where we can extract the zip and manually push the file to system and framework

Spoon feeder:

FOLLOW THIS STEP BY ROOT EXPLORER

1.Extract the manual zip file

2. Copy the file system and setting apk to the system/app/ and paste it.

3.copy the file framework.jar to system/framework folder and paste it

4.don't forget to give permission

NOW ENJOY
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aldroidx:
Well, to be cleared nova do a slide-in in every app launch, slides out at app closes.. fades in and out.. doesn't this enough to be a system animation or there's some other interpretation?

if so! You win lol :thumbup: :D

Is there any way to get pie on the lockscreen? I my school email requires me to use the lockscreen with a pin number, but in previous builds, I was able to acess the pie launcher while on the lock screen. Is there any way to enable that in 3.5?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Piccles:
Only if you do not have a secure lock. As in you do not have pin or pattern set up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dehosti:
When I open PIE my screen blink white on the midle to the left of the screen and black to the other side.

I tried to take a screenshot but doenst appear in the screenshot.

Sometimes doenst happens but most of the time these blinks happens when the pie is openning

I dont know if a factory reset fix this or is a bug.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Wait for an official build and that issue should be gone. I'm on the official Alpha 4 build for Toro and the blinking is no longer happening.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dehosti:
Just close the HOLo feature before install
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
That's odd, I only heard of people encountering that with the release of 3.5 Halo, I've never had that issue on 3.15.

Please Please Please, Learn to read, this question has been asked and answered probably 20 or 30 times already.

You must disable Halo to install apps, then you may re-enable it.

I'm facing the exact same issue. First time I saw this behavior I had updated to HALO alpha 4 with the SystemUI.apk, Settings.apk and framework.jar, so later I tried the full ROM dirty installation but the issue was still there. I tried a couple things to fix it, but I guess it's caused by a bug that will disappear with next HALO iteration.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ruggerxpunk:
I believe this was noted as being due to MMS having some CM commits which should be ironed out eventually.
