[Nexus 7 Android Development] Adinaky:
It doesn't matter, benchmarks don't usually mean anything. If your device runs fast and smoothly, you shouldn't care, right?

But if you're really addicted to benchmarks, try a different kernel. For example the M-Kernel, it's the best I tried. If you want even higher scores, then flash this kernel and oc the CPU to 1.6GHz using TricksterMOD. It will eat some more battery, but at least it will get you the numbers you want see.

Re: [March 7][ROM][4.2.2][SmoothROM v5.0][Smoothest ROM-Deodex-Zipalign-Tablet UI-Sta

Sure but in this case you would need to force tablet ui in the launcher.

- ADWLauncher (Tablet UI by default)

- Apex Launcher (Tablet UI can be enabled in settings)

Why you need this is because in SmoothROM, to avoid compatibility issues, Tablet UI doesn't force apps to use that layout because it makes them ugly I.e. GTalk.

Strange bug. When I leave home with wifi and there is no wifi available the gps stop working. I can't access gps data (that doesn't means no satellite fix: I CANT access the gps module) and the gps icon it's stucked on "position acquired" although I didn't use the gps in the last minutes. I have to reboot..

Also the device is very leggy when coming back from sleep.. I'm counting 3 seconds from pressing the button to screen on.. All this issues started on 5.0

Thanks, I went back to Apex launcher. I only asked if there was a way to do that in ROM itself. No worries though.

The reason why I wanted it was because I did not want any dock.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
No problem :)

I guess you went from 4.x to 5.x without wiping :S

[Nexus 7 Android Development] FizzleDiz:
You don't turn it on or off, it's a slider. Tablet option is also in the settings. Just take a minute and look around. If it was a snake it would have bit you.

Hey jamesst,

i was a fan of your rom,

but after you've changed the base of your rom to AOKP i can't use it.

The alpha-value of the navigation bar is set funny, in the homescreen it's translucent at other times black.

After i changed it the homescreen was locked, every time i tried to change the place of an app, the homescreen rotated.

It's frustrating, looking for an alternative rom, only SentinelRom would be an option but i wanna go back to yours....

(sorry for my bad english)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
Your English is alright :) English is also my second language so no worry ;)

Alpha Value : Make it 255 in ROM Settings ;)

Home screen rotation bugs are because of a dirty flash. Use JROMFlasher to wipe perfectly your device :)

No need to change ROM, AOKP is way better to me then CM :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Ethested:
I wiped cache, dalvik cache, system and I did a factory reset, but I'll try it :)

Thanks for your fast answer.

Hi Mate,

Been running your ROM since I bought the Nexus back last Autumn, and love it to pieces.

One thing just worried me though...

My Trend Micro Titanium desktop product scanned your latest package and found the above to be a Threat.

Hopefully it's a false/ positive, but let me know please.

Cheers,

what makes you think it is the rom? why would the rom just start doing that out of the blue? haven't you been using this rom for a while? I haven't heard of this before with this rom, nor experienced it myself, just trying to get some more info to try to help you out.

edit: The advice that FizzleDiz gives you is sound advice. I wonder tho, what recent changes have you made to your device in an effort to narrow down possibilities and pinpoint the culprit causing your issues.

hi rydog66 because when i went back to stock rom it stop doing it that.

so you switched back to a stock kernel then?? I am about to order some OTG cables. Do you have suggestions? Which ones have you had luck using, or the flip side of that,ones to avoid.

I am sorry I couldn't be of assistance, but I'm glad somebody chimed in with the answer for you. This thread seems to have a real sense of community! More so than some other threads here in XDA.

Youtube will never play in the background. Even the official youtube app. It has been discussed here before in another thread. Youtube, (and internet browsers) is an Activity and not a Service so it stops as soon as you open another app. Clicking home button to "minimize" actually starts your launcher app (Apex, Nova, stock launcher..) and stops other activities.
