Is it the welcome screen popping up with what tts you want to use?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Wanya79:
So that means i cannot update the Franco Kernel over his App, cos it is not compiled then with linaro, so i loose performance. I must stay at the kernel that comes with the rom?! did i get it right?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] SchmilK:
No, he is saying if you want super performance and battery life DO flash Franco's kernel!! This is by far the best combo for the Nexus 4 that I have tried as well.

Syn has stated before changing kernels doesn't matter, this ROM is still compiled with Linaro modifications.

Transparency will change to black when you're not in launcher as other apps don't have a margin extending to the status bar. Wallpapers can still reach up there.

Same reason I believe live wallpapers will cause a transparent navbar to show as black, they don't reach down there but regular wallpapers may.

So if you mean the status bar becomes black in apps, that's normal.

I'm on a custom dpi myself and this is all normal behavior.

its flashing with System UI error on the welcome screen

What gapps version did you flash?

I flashed the inverted bean gapps first, then tried the gapps from OP..but same result.

Ques- its clearly a gapps issue. Do I need to clear/ format something after i flash the gapps?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] fatjivi:
Well I didn't use the gapps from op, I downloaded gapps from goo.im for 4.2.1. Maybe try that?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] elliot.newnham:
Wow, really outdone yourself on this release! Blazing fast. And everything works.

Dpi is fixed now, transparency works, lockscreen tweaks are awesome!

Thanks!

The op states that sr2 has issues with Bluetooth audio quality? Is this the case? Or am I reading something wring. I use Bluetooth headset a lot for music, can't test till tonight though.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] crazyhazy:
Flashed this yestd. Awesome ROM. No issues yet

I came from Xylon 015 Rom and few things I am unable to find:

1] There was a setting to disable notification light and put phone on silent for a certain amount of time (Had it during night between 12am to 8am). Anyway to do this on this Rom

2] Anyway to add shortcuts on the lockscreen

3] Anyone tried this ROM with Bricked kernel and had any issues?

4] Adding different user's? (it gave option to put switch user in power options but didn't do anything on power menu when enabled)

Not requesting anything. Just wanted to check if they are in ROM and if I am missing them
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] elliot.newnham:
That's just for the 'Ace' phone. We have a 'mako' Nexus 4 :) (or is it maguro)

Should have perfect built from sources driver with no issues for us!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] simondadiamond:
Just wanted to say that this was my the first ROM I tried, ive tested others but keep coming back (within hours lol). I love the update, this ROM is almost perfect now :D (Any chance on getting lockscreen wallpaper ?)

Thank you very much :)

Can anyone see if navbar transparency works with live wallpapers? Thanks!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] AmeriKan47:
Yes it does. I just tried it out.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jc monkeyballs:
I didn't want to gunk up the thread, but at the same time this thread doesn't get the traffic that some others do. I think that's because of the lack of issues.

This is easily the best ROM I've used on our phone, and the new update is fantastic.

Thanks! :good:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] air2k57:
Thank you! That's what I was wondering!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] SchmilK:
Finally got an upgrade to work. Started with codefirex + CyanogenMod gapps pack. Always get the system ui crash if update ROM and ref lash those gapps.

This time flashed new codefirex, flashed op gapps pack, reset cache and dalvik cache. Rebooted and went straight to desktop. :) no welcome screen or system ui errors.

All is looking good so far.

Please, why is the bluetooth call quality in car system so low? :confused: (mostly on the other side calls, that can not hear me well - cutting and very low quality)

On other ROMs it seems to be OK and it wasnt any issue in bluetooth car audio - nobody complained.. Is this known issue of this ROM, or only my?? Thank you!

Bluetooth car audio works excellently for me, no audio issues. Have you taken your car in for service recently? They usually patch and update console software when you do, could be the car. Or perhaps you were in a bad service area? Are you using a custom kernel?

---------- Post added at 02:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:10 AM ----------

There really are very few issues. 95% of things 'just work.'

You make a good point. A lot of the high traffic threads deal with support requests.

---------- Post added at 02:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:11 AM ----------

1. I don't see a ROM level do not disturb mode. You can download an app to resolve this. HD Widgets has a widget to toggle mode for this but only for notifications I believe, dunno if it will disable alarms or BLN.

2. Not that I can see besides assigning shortcuts to widgets such as UCCW, SimpleText and Minimalistic Text.

3. Others have used and recommend Bricked with no issues.

4. Not sure. I know at the Android level, that's a tablet specific feature. Not sure how this ROM handles it or if setting dpi to tablet mode will trigger it.

Thanks for the answers
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] reaper000:
Came over here from Xylon 015 + FrancoR29

AnTuTu score was 12000ish over 3 trials.

Codefire + Franco got about 11000ish.

Codefire with its native kernel ran 14500ish.

Now I'm not a true believer of benchmark scores, as there are way too many confounding variables to consider, especially across devices/users. And I still think Franco is a great dev, whose work on the N4 is still early... But I have to say that Codefire is frakkin' impressive!

Hope that battery life is as good as performance!

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] rlaw:
I've found battery life with this ROM to be QUITE excellent. And not to stir the pot, this is just my own personal opinion - but I find Franco's kernel to be overrated. Motley's and Faux's are, in my opinion, highly superior and I always find myself going back to Motley's after trying others out just as I always find myself coming back to my cfx nandroid after trying out other ROMs.

No other kernel has been as stable for me, providing an excellent balance of performance and battery life. Motley's development schedule is also much slower with fewer updates, allowing new tweaks and such to mature and be tested on other's projects before adding his own implementation.

Faux provides an interesting beta experience with bleeding edge tech (except for Linaro optimizations and such). Not as stable for me as Motley but his unique work allows for the best battery life possible (albeit at the cost of performance) if you so choose to go down that route. One of his users achieved 7hrs+ screen on time by disabling two cores, frequency capping etc.

Franco doesn't have beta releases. Just mainline releases where he continually tests new stuff. I admire his willingness to explore new stuff (except for uv and Linaro :p) but often problems and such arise.. Like his aggressive thermal throttling limiting multitasking.

To be fair, many devs eschew Linaro optimizations implementation and even extreme uv will offer perhaps a 5% battery life savings, at most.

And yeah, cfx is the first AOSP ROM to convince me to permanently switch from being a CM stalwart and will definitely consider cfx support when choosing new devices (which will probably all be Nexus hardware anyway so I hope they will support hint hint :p).
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Gogetalvl4:
Whoops, wrong topic sorry.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Wanya79:
That was exact the Topic, that i've planned to ask here, cos when i flashed franco's Kernel with this the Antutu Score goes highly down. So for Performance i can only flash, linaro compiled Kernel's? which one has so implentations?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] bclark:
Usually motley, bricked, and trinity (morfic was testing the new Google chain though so this may have changed).
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] rlaw:
This ROM is already built with the Linaro additions. Using a non-Linaro built kernel won't penalize performance or negate the Linaro optimizations (this ROM comes with stock kernel after all) but not all kernels are made the same of course and some may provide better performance than others.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] air2k57:
So after reading your post I went ahead and downloaded Motleys and wow... You're so right. So fast, battery is so good and data works great! Haven't had this much luck with a kernel!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sn0warmy:
Thanks to you guys I think I'm finally ready to go from stock/rooted to mod-town. I'm going to go with the codefirex ROM and the Motley kernel. What kernel settings are you using with Motely's kernel?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] rlaw:
304MHz-1.512GHz

Interactive governor

Global -150mV under volt. Motley's kernel sets an appropriate, safe voltage table depending on your CPU binning. Since I have a 'fast' binned chip, my voltage table is -100mV compared to stock. I further undervolted an additional -50mV.

mpdecision off

Hispeed load 99

Hispeed freq 1.512GHz

Timer rate 20000

Min sampling rate 80000

Gpu governor ondemand

400MHz for gpu

Sio for i/o scheduler

2048 readahead

eMMC entropy contribution off

Westwood tcp congestion scheduler

I'm using faux clock to adjust kernel settings, trickster mod and system tuner should work as well.

Please note undervolting tolerance is different from device to device and depends on your CPU binning - slow, nominal, fast or faster. Mine is a fast binned CPU.

In his first post, Motley explains how to find your binning.

I'm having an issue where my device is not being identified on the play store, as a result I am not able to install many of my apps.

On searching for Need for Speed Most wanted , I cant find it . I then go through a link via chrome, and it says my device. Is this a known problem, or does anyone know a fix ?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] rlaw:
This happened to me once. I was suggested to delete Google services framework data (go to apps, all apps, find it and delete data), clear data for the play store as well, delete my Google accounts, restart and then re-add them. After 12-24hrs, you'll be recognized again.

I'm sure not all steps are needed but it's thorough and it works.

Is your device not appearing on the online play store or are you using a custom dpi? If it's the latter, you'll need to download a modified play store apk for multi dpi available here. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1839871
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sn0warmy:
Thanks for the info. I flashed this ROM and after setting the phone up I flashed the Motley kernel. I set it to interactive governor and didn't change anything else. I'm noticing absolutely no lag and everything is running perfectly. Now I'm just hopeful that my battery life is improved over stock.

Normally I am not one to complain about battery life but with this phone it really has been an issue for me. I'm a light user and barely get a day out of the phone. Crossing my fingers that this new setup improves battery performance.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] reaper000:
So here's my latest AnTuTu with CodefireXsr2, native kernel. Far exceeds what I expected with widgets, apex launcher, live wallpaper, customized appearance features, running in the background.

In addition, I lost only 1-2% battery overnight on wifi (but no sync overnight). I might have to keep the kernel native on this ROM...!

Mad, mad props to Codefire devs

Finished setting up all of my needed apps/settings and can already tell that this is going to be my daily driver for a while. Thank you.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] synergye:
I'm not. It's not as simple as just enabling a build flag. There are well over 40 repos which needed strict aliasing fixes, not to mention the ISOC++11 fixes as well as more compiler fixes which are still needed. That would really be too much for me to do and maintain. I do believe that once BR2 is up you'll find everything you need included as far as features are concerned.

Steve Spear did an incredible job on them, and I'm working on adding them right now actually. BR2's new settings won't all conform to DISABLE_CF_SETTINGS (what is set if the switch is set to "off" in CFXSettings), but by BR3 I'll have added that support to them all.

Thank you to all testers, and for your support. I've actually been convinced to buy a nexus 4, and have been incessantly checking craigslist so I won't have to wait the 4-5weeks it will take to get one shipped.

Pinch to Zoom

I've come from an S3 and the only thing that bothers me is the pinch to zoom on the Nexus 4. It's nowhere near as smooth as the S3. I've heard it said that it's due to the "zero gap" screen tech, but does this ROM do anything to correct that at all?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] droidmakespwn:
It's a software only thing. Check out Firefox browser. It's pinch to zoom is exactly how it should be.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] elliot.newnham:
Pinch-zoom works great on my nexus running codefireX... the second I place two fingers on the screen and stretch the thing zooms.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] RichySamui:
Just checked it out and you're right - Firefox zoom is exactly as it should be and is much smoother than Chrome is. Guess I'll be using Firefox now for a bit - thanks for the tip :) Still find the Gallery a bit choppy though.

I best get flashing then :laugh:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] droidmakespwn:
Just flashed this ROM and this is not true. Its smooth but it still has that strange delay. If you start your fingers about a half inch apart it will zoom right away but if your fingers are right up against each other it will not zoom right away.

Going from Quickpic to the stock gallery is a good demonstration of the issue. Would be amazing if it was possible to address this at some point?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] synergye:
I was just going off word of mouth from other developers, but it seems you're right. Strangely enough the stock optimus g (basically a nexus 4) with the stock ROM didn't have this issue. After a user did a nexus conversion with stock n4 images, he had the same issue. Once i get my n4 I'll be able to try and address it.

Edit: it's kernel. Perhaps using the opt g ts drivers in kernel will fix it (though 3.0 to 3.4)

I like the speed in this ROM! The only criticism is the dev should switch over to SuperSU instead of SuperUser. SuperUser seems to cause some issues with certain apps on 4.2.1. FauxClock being one of those.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Ranguvar:
If you disable Superuser and put SuperSU into Survival Mode and all that, it should be pretty painless to go to SuperSU and let it reinstall its binary whenever you update.

A lot of ROM devs still use Superuser because it's open source, so they can redistribute and modify the code.

Yeah, SuperSU is in the play store. It doesn't really matter what gapps you use.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] rlaw:
If you flash SuperSU, the installer removes superuser if detected and SuperSU will instead be the gatekeeper for granting apps root privilege.

It can be updated via play store so even if you flash an older SuperSU, everything will work correctly and the latest version will be used, as updates to system apps are handled in a special way.

Simpler process for those who aren't quite sure how to change superuser app etc.

The one and only thing I've found missing is the ability to theme the notification bar with the theme engine.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] rlaw:
This is because the ROM allows you to theme the bar yourself.. Of sorts. You can play around with the transparency (only displays in limited situations) and the color, which I guess overrides hard themed bars by theme engine.
