Is a full wipe needed if we are upgrading from slim bean to a newer version of slimbean, mostly it is mentioned that it is not but here it isnt. So it was better to ask.

Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Mango Polo:
better is to try yourself.. unless anybody tried himself already to leave any feedback regarding it. each new version is unpredictable for this fact. and considering that the new release has less than 12 hours since it was announced, I am sure there are not many people who might advice you with this, since most of them do full wipes before flashing last builds..

After doing some digging, I found a brute force way of doing it. For those that are interested in editing the default keyboard layout:

Extract LatinIME.apk from your rom.

Decompile using APK Multi Tool (option 9)

Edit rowkeys_qwerty(1,2,3).xml, rowkeys_symbols_shift(1,2,3).xml, and rowkeys_symbols(1,2,3).xml in LatinIME.apk\res\xml

Compile using option 11

Once unsignedLatinIME.apk is created, extract the compiled versions of rowkeys_qwerty(1,2,3).xml, rowkeys_symbols_shift(1,2,3).xml, and rowkeys_symbols(1,2,3).xml using 7-zip

Open the original LatinIME.apk using 7-zip and insert your edited files over the originals. Use this apk with your rom.

Replace LatinIME.apk in your original rom with the edited one and reboot.

Attached is the one I edited. I switched the location of + and =.

Sorry if this has been brought up before - I'm not a n00b, I'm just drunk. At any rate, I have Slim v4.2 on my S3, and wanted to see it on my N4. Everything looks great running v5, with this exception :

Note that annoying white line that is misaligned at the top, like the margin values are borked. Any ideas how to fix this? And no, it's not the theme, as I've tried both stock and Phantom Jelly, and it still looks like this.

Thanks in advance for any help.

You could just use a launcher that supports status bar hiding and assign a nav button to its activity or use a swipe gesture to do it.

I use lightning launcher which can do both. ;)

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Nebucatnetzer:
The function is called "Notificatios" or "Quicksettings" depending which one you want check the navigation bar settings.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] hsn97:
I don't know whether this should be asked here or not, but there are no slimbean wallpapers in the ROM, can anyone provide slimbean wallpapers for mako?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Slymobi:
I think he is asking for a quick shortcut to enable/ disable auto status bar hiding instead of going into the interface options each time.

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Nebucatnetzer:
As I said the function is already there. You can assign it as a button and the it opens either the Notification drawer or the quick settings drawer.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] alexkno:
maybe you changed dpi or something?

I don't have this line...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Slymobi:
Yes I know that. I'm just trying to explain maybe he just wants the status bar to show/hide at a button press level. As it is you get the whole notification drop down drawer and not just a status bar alone. Cheers.

Anyway not my desire as I've already said about launchers being able to show/hide status bar. :p

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Ah okay.

That won't come I think.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] alahkel:
that's exactly was I meant :) a gesture or a quick toggle to show temporarily the status bar, not the whole notification drawer of quick settings page

edit: or at least could someone lead me to a third party app that creates a non-persistent notification by clicking on a shortcut (the shortcut must be possible to add to navbar or pie button). Thanks :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Slymobi:
I already did. A different launcher. I use lightning launcher and assign my home button to status bar hide/unhide and also swipe screen up to do the same as I've set LL to auto hide status bar.

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] dark_ente:
smart statusbar, I think.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] freddysam:
You could use Tasker. Create a task that:

Notify - Title: Show Status Bar

Wait 5 seconds

Notify Cancel - Title: Show Status Bar

Then you can assign that task to any gesture or button you want inside Slim using the option "Custom App" -> "Task Shortcut"

You can also use Apex launcher's shortcut: "Toggle Statusbar", but this is not timed. It is on/off.

I just buy a new nexus 4, can I install this ROM without unlock boot loader. I don't see a bootloader require in instruction

It's not in the instructions because it's obvious. You can't flash anything without unlocking the bootloader.

Can someone please post the latest slimbean 5.5 kernel. I would like it so I can make a flashable slim kernel revert if needed after using 3rd party kernels, Or maybe slim team could post it in OP ? It doesn't have to be a flashable version as I will do that myself. I ask because I've only got a nandroid and not at home to re-download the whole ROM.

Kindest regards

Do u have a backup of some flashable kernel in your phone?

If yes, then replace the boot.img inside that archive with the boot.img from the slimbean rom you are flashing.

Hope that helps. Thank you.

EDIT: Opps. I think i misunderstood your question when I read it before :D

I can grab one for u if u havent got it yet.

EDIT 2:

Okay, I created one for you and to someone needs it too ;)

SlimBean Kernel v5.5 - Flashable.zip - 6.11 MB

If it needed to be remove from d-h i'll do it. Thanks.

I know I can enable/disable the navigation bar through settings>interface>navigation bar>"enable navigation bar", but is there any way to manually trigger this option? (Using either a shortcut, shell command, a custom intent, ...etc)

I can change the option using:

sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
update system set value=0 where name='navigation_bar_show';
.exit

But the setting does not apply until I reboot. I want to quickly disable and re-enable the navigation bar on the fly.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] yethz:
How about power menu options, i think theres an option there that u can hide/unhide nav bar.

Not too sure coz im using other rom as of this posting, and i cant remember that there is.

Question on build 5, how does the Voice shutter work? and the other one, swipe hand gesture to capture an image? thank you :D
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] P00t:
just comin by to say build 5 has been great so far.

im still waiting for build 6 to come out :)

havent gotten off slim since slim release for N4!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sspyed:
Took a look around & I'm a little confused, haha... Thread title says Build 5.5 but the latest build I see on the site/changelogs is Build 5. Am I missing a new build somewhere?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] yogi2010:
on the site, click on Downloads, then Weekly, then select Mako..
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] android88:
Voice shutter let's you take the picture by saying "picture" or something like that. Swipe hand gestures takes it by swiping your hand over the proximity sensor.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] freddysam:
Thanks for the suggestion but no dice. I found a solution by using a third party app called Hide Bottom Bar. It's not perfect as it also hides the status bar and has some strange behavior like blacking out the wallpaper (it's also not free), but it will work for now.

I really do wish slim rom mapped the disable/enable navigation bar option to a shortcut.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sspyed:
Thanks for that--dev team, since it isn't a whole new build version will a dirty flash suffice from Build 5? Or are full wipes recommended for weeklies as well
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Nebucatnetzer:
It says stable 5.0 and weekly 5.5.

Weeklies are the same as nightly builds but less frequent.

Means unsupported and they can be buggy.

How do you mean no dice? Because the option is there. Settings/ Interface/ Power Menu/ Expand desktop
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] freddysam:
Sorry, I guess I should have elaborated. For my needs, it has to be a shortcut, activity, shell script, intent, or a Tasker plugin. Having "expand desktop" as a button on the navigation bar or Slimpie would also be handy, but I'm just looking for a method that I can employ with Tasker. The power menu option is nice but not convenient enough.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ilamaan:
Um. Is there a choice of per app dpi yet on Slim? Last time I checked it was only overall DPI changing option only available?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Slymobi:
Thanks, and extra for putting into a flash.

Hi everyone,

Just an idea for SlimBean. I discovered today this application:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.roymam.android.notificationswidget

Compared to DashClock, it shows the first line (or 2, or 3, or not) of the messages, it's more customizable (every apps' notifications can be customized), it works with every apps, etc..

Just a suggestion of course, maybe some of you never heard about this app. It could give a new image to SlimBean: more lockscreen possibilities.

Which kernal to use

Hello Guys..

Sorry for a noob question..i was using DHD for a long time and now have got nexus 4..planning to root it and install this ROM...Which kernal is suggested with this ROM..??
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
What's DHD? Personally I use stock. Then again it's my kernel. Francis, Faux, Morfic and Strarosk's kernel are all great. Each have their + and - . But try them all out and make that decision yourself.

After searching for months, I believe I've found a jewel in slim bean. Thanks to all involved amazing work.:cool:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Does it have an API like dashclock? How big is it in comparison?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] android88:
Desire HD ;)

It's roughly ~100KB larger than DashClock. I'll check about the API soon...

My thoughts about NiLS clock: seems like a highly-customizable cLock/Chronus but with some DashClock features (the notification part, for instance).

Text Messaging App Missing.

Thank you krarvind for this ROM.

I got my N4 today and installed this ROM v5.5.

Everything is good except I'm missing the text messaging app.

I installed the the addons & extras.

Have missed something?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] android88:
That seems a little odd... The apps apk should be "Mms.apk". If you check in system/app/ is that there?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] bluegrass55:
Yes it is in the system/app/ location.

I find it strange myself.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] aaronrw:
Enable it under settings from the camera:thumbup:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] bluegrass55:
Found the problem.

I'd installed the Pdroid patch which was causing the problem.

Messaging is back but now the device isn't showing up on the PC.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Okay thx.

API stands for Application Programming Interface.

Means it's a way apps can communicate with each other.

This is the cool part of DashClock. The app itself is nothing special but the cool thing is that other apps

link into it and show you information trough it. So message notifications are only once thing you can do.

There are tons of plugins for it in the playstore (https://play.google.com/store/search?q=dashclock&c=apps&start=48&num=24)

Voice shutter has to be activated first check the camera timer.

So I work in NYC, and a lot of people here just got an emergency alerts from the National Weather Service on their phone a few minutes ago, including someone who has a stock (unrooted) Nexus4 - anyway to get that functionality into SlimRom? I'm sure that there's an app that will do it for me, but if it can be built in (or already is and I just can't find it) that would be great. I'm running the 5.5 weekly.
