Anyone using Faux kernel?

I took the plunge and installed the latest v6.1 and have to say it's very smooth. Will play with it for a few days before making a decision if it's really much better than stock on Faux.

Unfortunately, within 5 minutes of use I'm already noticing a significant increase in the device temperatures, both from data and more noticeably just holding the thing in my hand. This is with CPU underclocked to 1.35ghz.

Don't want to get into a "which is better discussion" as everyone has their own opinion, but wondered if anyone is using faux?

I know that Franco is not open to adding UV options (which I'm pretty sure the main reason my phone ran really cool on faux at -250 across the board), and that's fine with me, but just interested if anyone has feedback on using this ROM with faux?

Thanks for the great work Minco!

BTW - where did the battery temps on the pull down go?

Also can't get voice search to work... Force closes every time I press the microphone icon - Edit: update of search app resolved voice search.

Going to do a fresh wipe and install of this tomorrow, as it's bed time for me! I'm guessing this does not have the modded MMS.apk with quick reply and pop up box. Is it OK if after I install I just switch the MMS.apk with the modded one? Will that work? Thanks.

Pretty much as franco says below - Although i'll add this:

These won't be a regular thing - just when we need something mass tested

It has already been tested internally & should be stable anyway

point releases are behind the scene stuff

Glad it was just a user issue :p

Sounds Good :)

River - Yes SSL is MUCH MUCH better, but we're only using it for beta downloads, so for now it's no big deal.

Franco - Only is you prefer your balls attached...

The real problem right now is SSL costs money - minco doesn't make any atm & I'm personally injecting money (Thanks for the donations people, they help greatly)

When the minco site becomes something greater than what it is atm, i'll look at getting a certificate

It's you :p

Ok, I have a list of features I think would be nice to see in v6.2 or v7 or whatever the next version is. I'm using cm now and there are a few things that I just can't give up..

-navbar mods (all 5 keys at full size, cm doesn't have this BTW)

-led customization (biggest one for me)

-a more cm like qs panel (click for toggle, long press for settings page)

-quick messaging

-circle battery (useless but cool)

This isn't a demand or anything like that, just some things I would like to see. Would definitely switch if the QS was fixed and the LED customization was implemented (I know about light flow, but I hate it)

In regard to custom nav bars would it be possible have the option to completely remove the navbar? Perhaps as a safety have a link to the settings in the power button menu so that people don't get stuck. The reason I ask for that is because I currently use gestures instead of the on-screen buttons but the app I use also eliminates the notifications bar along the top (without the option for just one to show, it's also slow to make the notifications re-appear). I'd like to retain the notifications but eliminate the navbar. If this is an option please do incorporate it! :good: Thanks very much for your work with the ROM (not just you vomer).
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] vomer:
-navbar mods (all 5 keys at full size, cm doesn't have this BTW) - example? I don't get it...

-led customization (biggest one for me) - use lightflow

-quick messaging - I Will look into it... buy you can probably just install mms.apk that has that.

Does this ROM allow status bar color change to white?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] airchie:
I was just thinking, you can use a self-signed cert to provide a compromise in the meantime?

I would also like to see a navbar mod to choose which buttons you see (I would want back, home, recent and menu) and also what their long press actions are.

Ability to control the led notification light would also be lovely.

Quiet hours would also be useful, though I'm sure you can probably achieve this with tasker.

Main one I'd love to see is volume music controls that work with Spotify.

Vomer, maybe we (ie you :D) could create a list of features we could all vote for so you can gauge interest before investing your time? :)

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jayjay2244:
I just think it would be a good addition to the rom, plus if you are watching your data its disabled by default. It also allows youtube playback with the screen off.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Vangelis13:
Doubt it, let's see though! :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] AshtonTS:
IN the OP it says that a long press on the QS tile will do a toggle and a normal click will bring you to settings. It should be the other way around.

For the navbar mods, In CM, you can only have four full size keys, its really annoying and I'm saying navbar mods would be nice but with the option to have all 5 keys (like in liquid or aokp) as opposed to the four in CM.

Like I said, lightflow is bad, uses memory, have to pay for it, and it's not as good as the CM implementation of it. It should also be a pretty simple implementation, so I don't see why not.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] airchie:
+1 for this, that's the way I'd like it too. :)

I'd be happy with 4, but 5 would be fine too, just need to argue about the order... :D

Not sure how simple it'd be, and not tried CM on my N4 but if it's similar to their implementation on the Nexus1, I'd be very happy to have it included.

And the Volume skip function and the quiet hours if I was to be greedy... :D

Happy to help test things or in any other way I can Vomer. :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Stretlow:
Can you customise the tile placement on Minco 6?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Chochiwpg:
I prefer to have native LED notification control handled by the ROM itself as well. However, you can use LightFlow free version and it works just fine. Typically you would use notification lights for MMS/SMS, missed calls, calendar events/reminders and the free version supports all these functions just fine.

I do agree that having it in the ROM is better though. I also agree click to turn on toggle in QS makes more sense than hold to turn on toggle. But whatever Minooch and Franco decide is all good. It's their ROM and I'm grateful that they make it available for us.

It never hurts to provide feedback and requests either though IMO ;):good:

Sound Issues

There are definitely issues with the quality of sound during music playback on this latest beta v6.1

Whilst normal sounds like notifications and ringtones seem to have gotten louder (someone else pointed this out that the phone seemed louder), the quality of sound during music playback is poor compared to stock ROM.

I use PlayerPro and Eizo and immediately noticed that Eizo was barely noticeable, and it's sound quality was washed out and poor.

In PlayerPro itself, the sound was extremely compromised, changing the built in EQ caused the sound volume to be reduced as if there was clipping involved.

I tried a fresh install with full wipe (including system), same problems.

Tried changing kernel to faux (Franco kernel runs hot.....it just does) and same issues with music quality playback.

Went back to my stock 4.2.1 nandroid (running Faux beta5 02) and everything is sounding amazing again. I even tried an older version of Franco kernel (r34) and sound playback was fine, phone was noticeably warmer - about 8-10 degrees warmer battery temps.

OK. So I tried another flash of Minco v6.1 and the sound problems returned as before.

I'm back on stock and all well again.

Either it's just that both PlayerPro and eizo are the only two apps that are not compatible with this ROM, or its the ROM.

I have my own thoughts, but interested in other feedback.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Globespy:
I guess sound quality is relative to each person..... I'm using etymotic er-4p audiophile/studio reference quality in ear isolating buds and the sound difference is greatly degraded on this ROM. Maybe on other headphones/in ear buds there is less of a difference because they aren't able to pick up and reproduce the sound like a $300 pair of in ear buds.

I'm sure I'm just hearing more than stock headset/lower end headsets - no offence on the skull candy gear, my girlfriend uses it with her GS3 and it's adequate for her (of course the GS3 has far better audio sound than the N4 especially with access to voodoo sound), but I expect more from my audio.

I guess the more precise your equipment the more can't be hidden and for me I can't live with the sound on v6.1 after coming from stock.

I wonder if trying v6 would help?

Can Minco/ Franco chime in about any sound changes between the two?

Just hoping Google fixes the low sound that has impacted every device since moving from ICS to JB in 4.2.2 or Key Lime Pie later in the year.

If you long press a QS tile in CM, it takes you to the app settings (eg holding the WiFi tile takes me to Settings > WiFi) but just pressing the tile toggles it.

So how do you get the bars back, using gestures or something?

ie, you're in a game with no exit button, how do you go 'home'?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Chochiwpg:
You could use LMT Launcher and it brings up the Pie function just like Paranoid Android so when in Expanded Desktop you can still navigate to the home, back, recent apps.

If not, you would have to press the power button and disable expanded desktop before being able to go back to home, back, recent apps.

Before I flash this, I was wondering. I hear the ROM is responsible for hardware acceleration, since it tells the GPU what to do. Or something. So my question is thus: Does this have 10-bit hardware decoding?

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] airchie:
I'm confused about what it is you're after? ROMs are software and you're asking about hardware decoding? and why 10-bit specifically? I'm more used to hearing decoding referring to audio and GPUs deal with video. I'm not saying you're wrong, just that your post confuses me. However, there's plenty of switched-on peeps here so they may be able to shed some light...

Its a mod that Vomer is working on to integrate with the next version I believe. Its a feature I miss too. :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] MizuhoChan:
Well, I searched for the post, but I can't find it. But basically, I asked about 10-bit decoding for the Nexus 4 and someone told me that it was the ROM that told the GPU what to do in decoding it. So the GPU does the work, but the ROM has the information about the codec. At least, that's what I got from it.

Anyway, I want 10-bit H/W for anime. I can use software decoding, but it lags a bit, even using all 4 cores.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jmejiaa:
Awesome, it's one of the reasons I haven't been using it in the car, it's just a pain to forward the tracks if I have to turn on the screen every time.
