[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Yes, You're right.

I've used too much my PC to try things, update files manually, and so on.

I'm sleepy and I should take a break for some time.

But, N4:

I have never rally liked that phone, I made my ROM for N4 because some users wanted it for N4.

And I don't actually ask thanks, but it's really annoying when many people download stuff and so many of them can't even say thanks, complaining about the features, the bugs..

As you know, getting a little feature to ROM by editing sources, isn't always easy and can take a lot time, some users don't understand it which is annoying.

Currently I'm thinking how I can finish building ROM for Nexus 4, my notebook doesn't have enough memory and I have no idea, I have nothing that I can delete.

I shouldn't have write that about Nexus 4, but I can't do nothing if I just don't like N4 and I get nervous EASILY!

My apologies for being a bit too frustrated!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MBQ_:
You don't need to apologize dude.

The points you made are actually extremely valid and I completely and totally agree, because users (most) really do not understand what goes into this.

However, hard work pays off. Trust me. People will give you thanks, be it literal or through 'hitting the thanks button'. Just PM a forum mod over at the N4 section and have them either lock or delete the thread. It honestly isn't your problem if the users get upset.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Yeah, but I don't want to lock or even delete my N4 ROM thread, because at least one user have been waiting my update for a long time, I just keep promising to make update, but the problem is that my Notebook just does not have enough memory to build ROM to other devices, I'm lucky that I can exactly make ROM for Nexus and then a bit free space for updating all required source files to keep ROM up to date.

But I just got ROM ready for Nexus 4, I had to build again and when it started building System.img then I deleted Kernel files (443 MB) and emptied trash... :victory:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mpokwsths:
I did not dirty flash. I mean when composing an SMS, not in the message inbox. I can't select a Greek recipient when composing. To reproduce that you need a contact with Greek name.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
OK hmm.

Well that must be CM issue. Does that same happen on official CM ROM..?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mpokwsths:
No, normal CM works well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Ok!

Hmm.. Sorry I have no ideas.. :/

Hopefully it will be fixed on the newer version of this ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
[MENTION=4244313]MBQ_[/MENTION]

Do you know how I could be able to delete files permanently from .repo folder to stop it downloading files that I don't need like e.g. kernel.. ?

:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
I don't use HALO with blacklist or Privacy guard, so if those 2 features are not working like should then please tell me. :)

Settings may force close or Privacy Guard may crash if you have enabled privacy guard for app which you are uninstalling, the fix for that will be in the next version of this ROM.

I may try ParanoidAndroid ROM today, because I want to see what kind of features it has.. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
I've made a flashable zip of Beats audio and srs from HTC One (Google Edit.)

I don't know does it work so if you want then try it and tell me if you noticed any difference!

http://www.upload.ee/files/3408386/beats_signed.zip.html

Also I made thread of SunBeam LWP from HTC One (google edit.) install-able (no need to flash) into Gnex themes and apps..

Get it if you want it.. ;)

Enjoy!

Edit:

Not working! :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mpokwsths:
Update on the SMS bug. Changed the system language to English and back to Greek a few times and now it works ok. I don't know what happened yesterday :confused:

Everything ok now!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MBQ_:
That's such a strange bug hahahah
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheQuarterMile:
Any way to switch off the transparency of the navigation and notification bar?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Read the first and second post!

No, you can't, I like something simple and everything does not have to be like switchable or something like that..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheQuarterMile:
All right.. Cheers mate really smooth ROM you got going :thumbup:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
New update may be available the day after tomorrow!

Now I am going to compare GS4 Google Edition's System dump (JB 4.2.2) with JB 4.3 and I try to see what are the new files and would I be able to port it or something, I try that for fun and I don't have any experience porting ROMs to Nexus. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Next version of this ROM will have some new stuff..

- Latest CM changes (including the Camera tile, and privacy guard fixes.)

- Phase Beam (Sun Beam) from JB 4.2.2 (HTC Google play Edition)

- Linaro toolchain 4.7 (13.05) updated to (13.06)

- Not sure what else... I am updating the files right now!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Version 4.1.1

https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BxlYDVLp_RkMUFlnemd4V2ZxOXM/edit?usp=sharing

- Built with Linaro's toolchain 4.7 (13.06)

- Latest CM changes including camera tile and fixes for privacy guard

- SunBeam LWP from HTC One 4.2.2 (Google Play edition)

- Some Bravia Engine files from Xperia Z (JB 4.2.2)

- Some Roboto fonts from JB 4.3, better than 4.2.2 Roboto fonts, you may not notice difference...

Next version:

- Maybe: Fix locale and country code of Esotnian language to make sure that everything is inlcuded

- Maybe some more bionic optimizations

- Maybe some more lines into build.prop from Xperia Z's JB 4.2.2 build.prop, e.g. hidden languages thing, if it works..

- If possible, then some fixes for some source files, which may even give a bit better battery life

- Sync to get some new changes..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MBQ_:
Great work as always man. You never fail to succeed, or impress.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Heh, Thanks man! :)

Any plans to make new ROM for Nexus? :good: and why did you abandon your ROM? :/

I quickly checked the posts from your ROM thread but I didn't find the answer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MBQ_:
Got an offer from a big-named dev. Going to start over. Bigger ideas, more chances. Etc

Essentially, this will ultimately benefit the users due to the brains behind this ROM we're slowly working on ahaha

Oh, and when I get the chance, ill give you a spot on my server. Directory file listing, unlimited bandwidth, 99.9% uptime, and unlimited uploads.

:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
OK, that's cool! :good:

And thanks! :)

Btw check this if you haven't seen that yet: http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/06/29/typeface-teardown-roboto-gets-a-facelift-in-android-4-3/ ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MBQ_:
Sweet!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mpokwsths:
Bravia Engine files? I believe we don't need that kind of stuff. Our AMOLED displays are very contrasty and colorful (too much maybe). Bravia Engine tricks can only make the things worse in my opinion.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Bravia Engine makes pictures quality a lot better, unfortunately I can't get it to work properly on CM! And no it doesn't make worse!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheQuarterMile:
Unable to see previously clicked photospheres in the gallery. They are visible as panoramas. Any reason behind this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Google apps, Google's gallery
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheQuarterMile:
Will replacing with Google galley cause any problems?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
I'm not sure.

Depends of the Gallery app and of the lib file.

to use Google's camera, then I recommend to use flashable .zip with the lib file and apk

Or try camera from HTC One/GS4 Google Play edition (JB 4.2.2 or JB 4.3) which should work well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
There is some issues with JB 4.3 fonts when using Keyboar. Keyboard just crashes, so unfortunately I have to add original fonts back and I can give you guys the download link for JB 4.3 fonts!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mpokwsths:
I know what Bravia Engine does. I think it isn't needed for AMOLED displays.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
I don't care!

I like BE, and I'll keep it on this ROM! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
New version should be available within an hour..

- Add JB 4.2.2 fonts back to fix keyboard freeze when swyping

- Some alarm, ringtone and notification files from Xperia Z

- SystemUI: more translations to values-et

- Settings: more translations into values-et

- Estonian translations to Koush's SuperUser app..

And then... I'll start making a clean build to make sure that everything works like should and I may add some armv7 optmizations to bionic, which actually are not needed but may give better performance but can break saving pictures in camera...

maybe some changes to /external/libpng/ to silence warnings or to fix some of them if possible..

As you guys know that I try to keep this so stable as possible! ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
For some reason the keyboard with swype freezes on my Nexus!

Does anyone else have that issue? try by swyping quickly few times..

I have no idea how to fix it, JB 4.2.2 fonts won't fix it and re-syncing latinIME files doesn't help too..

Anyway... Here's the v4.1.2:

https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BxlYDVLp_RkMTS1kdUwyRFBLX0k/edit?usp=sharing

Edit:Keyboard fix may be in the next version, if it's the right one.. Took some time to find more Linaro fixes..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Because you guys haven't told me do you guys have same issue with the keyboard!

I can say that, it is caused by toolchain!

The fix is coming then when I have a correct fix for that! Also I'll add JB 4.3 fonts back!

This is a temporary fix for Keyboard with swype!

So for now you may want to use Google's keyboard

Just install as normal app!

Download Here: http://ge.tt/9d2z5gk/v/0
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Next version is coming soon!

- Plenty of Linaro fixes and workarounds

/frameworks/native/

/frameworks/support/

/external/embunit/

/external/freetype/

/external/linux-tools-perf/

/external/elfutils/

/external/webkit/

/external/v8/

/external/mesa3d/

/external/tcpdump/

And much more...

- JB 4.3 fonts added back

- Fix the privacy guard notification and other latest CM changes, but not aapt fix for my torch translations which was merged in CM Gerrit!!!

Still no fix for keyboard freezing when using swype!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Guys please post here something!

This page is almost full of my posts!

Do you guys want X-Reality engine from Xperia Honami? It's like Bravia Engine!

New version is built and I have used it some hours, everything seems to be working well so you guys will get it soon! There is still a lot to do...

OP will be updated soon!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] billouetaudrey:
Hi, can i change notification background ? Thx

Envoyé depuis mon Galaxy Nexus en utilisant Tapatalk 4 Beta
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Hi, Which notification background? You mean the status bar?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] billouetaudrey:
Yes when you down the statusbar

Envoyé depuis mon Galaxy Nexus en utilisant Tapatalk 4 Beta
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
For that you need apktool and then to edit some .xml files and then you have to create one .png file!

There are tutorials for that, but there is no option to do it from Settings on this ROM..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Version 4.1.3 is now available, I have used this v4.1.3 over 5 hours, everything works well!

Check OP for Download link!

READ THIS:

If you enjoy my work please consider a donation to help me keep this ROM available. I spend a lot time doing this every day, even when this does not have tons of the features, doesn't mean that this would be easy! Actually this is really hard to do and I have to update many of the files manually, solve the problems and issues caused by some updates or new features.. Donations are appreciated! If you donated to me then Thank You a ton!

Thanks to MBQ_ for giving me a free space on his awesome FTP server:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
New version may be available tomorrow.. Only fixes and updates!

I may add some clock mods some day to this ROM, but today I try to install Mac OS X 10.6 successfully to my PC, since Linux OSs won't work anymore on my PC.. and I need another PC to use.. :D

Anyway I may abandon this ROM soon because this ROM is like 'DEAD' and I may create new ROM which would be many times better,but for that I need my another PC and Mac is ok for Android compiling... :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Still building thee newer version.. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scooby25:
Thx manu for update :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sgnex:
Thanks for the update. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lovejoy777:
latest version running awesome:)

just made a flashable mod:) for 4.1.4

it has a black semitransparent halo-bg.png and framework changes with dark backgrounds.

hope you like it:)

any requests I will consider:)

Link: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/75065013/dreamsMods/lovejoy777-mods.zip
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
:good:

Really Nice, Thanks! :)

In fact.. I haven't even tested v4.1.4 yet, because I have been trying to fix Audio and Ethernet on my HP with Mac OS X SL 10.6.3, but with Ethernet drivers I don't really have luck, so back to Win7 tomorrow, or maybe I try one more time Linux on it. :D

____________________________________

Next version will have some things from PA....

I may add some features to kernel to make this ROM smoother

By the way does anybody want this feature

to this ROM?

I don't know is it really necessary to this ROM

Also my pull request "Enable Halo pressed image in expanded status bar" is merged to PA's frm/base repository ! :silly:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lovejoy777:
tried flashing you kernel in op and got it looping on google logo. bad dl or dodgy kernel? :)

do you want me to do any mods?

im running with 40dpi navbar....

i might do a full semitrans bg's mini theme. what do you think?

---------- Post added at 11:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:03 AM ----------

also what about center clock?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
With what ROM you tried that kernel? :)

I didn't include ramdisk so it doesn't have any other boot files than zImage and that kernel should work well with CM based ROMs and even with Stock Android ROM, the bootloop should be caused by init files. :D I've used CM kernel on Google's stock ROM when I edited init and ueventd files to use right things and to get permission for gamma, etc. :)

I don't know, at least I don't really need any mods yet and I may include clock mods into the next version of this ROM (center, right, left) or how it is..., clock color and so on..

full semitrans bg's mini theme would be nice! :good:

I've planned to theme HALO. If you want, you can make mods and I can put them to my second or the first post (OP) to find mods easily or something like that. :highfive:

Anyway... I just finished updating WiFi drivers so now I boot my Notebook into Linux Ubuntu to work on the next version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Edit: double post!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lovejoy777:
i tried kernel with your latest build. i will try downloading again:)

later i will make a mini theme:)

highfive:

i tried and tried to mod my source. but any changes i made (except minor string changes) would cause errors:( so maybe i'm not ready for my own rom yet.

so i will do a little modding to hone my skills:) thanks again for awesome rom.

cheers

steve
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Ok :)

:good:

When editing strings you must edit them carefully, because if one mark or letter is missing it can cause errors..

I'm not 100% sure but wrong Simplification may cause errors too.

Hey thanks for using this ROM and great if you like/love it ;)

By the way:

Because I don't like win8 at all, I decided to install Windows 7 before using Ubuntu on my notebook.

For some reason Google chrome doesn't load pages correctly today on my notebook..... :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MBQ_:
Well the string names in the layouts must be referenced in strings.xml for it to properly show.

ie.

Layout/

example.xml:

<TextView
android:id="@+id/mbqs_example"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:text="@string/mbqs_example_string" />

Then,

values/

strings.xml:

<string name="mbqs_example_string>This is an example string</string>

:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Yeah.. :)

:thumbup:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
I don't know am I able to get Center clock to this ROM..

The codes in PhoneStatusBar.java ahve been changed so much by CM.. and it's hard to add Center clock otptions to PhonStatusBar.java. I have to find up-to date commits for center clock! :D

Anyway...

These have been added to the next version from ParanoidAndroid (So thanks to PA team)

Give floating flag to previous activities in the stack

Halo: unregister settings observers

Halo: Halo can save last position now

Also because CM have added some new external repositories e.g external/fuse, which gave a lot of errors which caused make error, I had to fix it by aliasing string fix... thanks to trailblazerz11 for that fix. :)

I tested these and works well, didn't include the keep apps in recents change commit from PA, because it's not needed for this ROM.

what I may add:

User defined colours for pie controls

Add user switcher to lockscreen (add back with the fixes for this..)

Lock screen rotation option
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scooby25:
Nice ..thx manu for your hard work:D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Np. :)

I hope you enjoy using this version!.. :silly:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lovejoy777:
dling now:) ive just finished work:( 13 hour shift).

1/ shower

2/ dinner

3/ android

in that order:)

thanks for all your work. i will take a look at some code later and see if i can help with cc. i used to have a flashable mod for early jb but i deleted it:(. it would have been nice to check the code
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
OK :)

Seems like Android is always the first one in my order.. :D

And no problem, it took a bit time to get those things because I built this ROM at least 4 times to test the features and to fix building errors..

Everything seems to work well, so again one successful version of this ROM.

You mean that lovejoy777-mods black semitransparent mod? I have the .zip file on my PC, so if that is the mod then I can upload it ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lovejoy777:
no mate that's just some pngs i put together for my own use on you great rom and thought i would share:)

i used to do a little modding a few months back for slimbean. the great kufti taught me. and i used his cc code for my own mods. thats what i deleted:(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Oh OK. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lovejoy777:
ok shower done. sod the dinner:).

i'm on it i will make a zip with cc. and then you can maybe add it to rom somehow:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
OK :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lovejoy777:
done and flashing (after a backup.lol) i will let you know:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Heh, OK :)

I don't usually do any backups because of too less free memory on my Nexus. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lovejoy777:
systemUI fcing

the old code doesn't work but i have an idea:)

give me a little time:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Okay, take your time.. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
This thread dies so quick! -_-

Anyway... the rotation option which is also on this ROM will be in the next CM's nightly.. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GalaxyDozie:
good rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] l92:
Can you add list view animation?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Thanks! :)

List view animation, what is that? I don't know what animation it is, so can you please tell me what it exactly is and which ROMs have that animation? :)

You mean animations for lists like:

Curl

-Twirl

-Zipper

-Fade

-Fly

-Reverse Fly

-Flip

-Cards

-Grow

If yes then for which apps..?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lovejoy777:
still trying :-s

such a simple thing and my heads going to explode. lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Garner:
Where could I find the latest version for this rom? As the link in the op does not work for me? I've been after a linaro based cm ROM and this looks good
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scooby25:
http://mbqonxda.net/manumanfred/Dreams/Nexus/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Garner:
This is what u get
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scooby25:
Nop...for me its works ps sry for my bad english
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Garner:
Wonder why the links won't show? I'll try it in my desktop later
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MBQ_:
Request my site as desktop.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scooby25:
I have the same isue on the phone.but on the desktop its works :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Yeah, use Desktop user agent to download my ROM.. :)

I don't usually play any games, but yesterday I played whole day one old game.. :D

Now I am going to watch one Scooby Doo movie, because I'm bored.. Anyway... Tomorrow there should be new version of this ROM..

Btw. my username is changed.. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Bad News:

Source files are updated, but unfortunately it shows so much different weird errors..

What I can to do is to download source files again and then to add all the stuff again back.. That would take some time to do..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
OK, so... Now guys please tell me which toolchain I should use now..

Linaro 4.7 or 4.8

Google's 4.7

SaberMod 4.9

?...?

I need quick answers, because I'm going to set up Linaro toolchain in 30 minutes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nickamina:
SaberMod 4.9!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Hmmm. Maybe..

[MENTION=4244313]MBQ_[/MENTION] which one you recommend, Linaro's or SaberMod's toolchain? :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
For now I'm going to use Linaro's toolchain 4.8 because I have no experience of using the SaberMod toolchain..

Anyway upcoming version will have the latest HALO changes, some HALO stuff to settings and much more.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MBQ_:
Upload your ROM to github :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
You mean ROM which I use on my Nexus (over 330 Mb)

Or

the source files? :D

When I have time then I'll upload the source files to Github.

Tomorrow I have to build again CM10.1 because I included Gapps to my ROM and then Sound search stopped working and I have to fix few things from Settings... + to edit some icons to make Settings look better..:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
:D

Just came home.. Now I'll download CM repositories again... but any way to delete all the Gapps which I have flashed for CM0.1?

Factory data reset didn't delete them! -_-
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MBQ_:
Use a file manager to delete stuff :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
ahh it takes to much time! :D

This method may not work but if I flash stock Google's factory image then still it has the installed Gapp files if I'm not going to do full wipe? :D

Then only one method is to use file manager to delete every file, which takes time. .

For some unknown reason Google search will stop working and CM's LatinIME won't use gesture swipe.. all the lib files which are needed exists too so I may have flashed wrong Gapps.

But whatever, I am going to edit the source files and to make repository to Github.

Btw. do you have Nexus 4? I need the vendor files and I don't want to waste my time by doing everything manually to get the files.. :DD
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Hey MBQ_

I'm not able to push files into github.. I get commit failed message box..

I try later again when I restart my PC, I think I have messed up something! :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
I just noticed that there is new Flash Player version available, came today..

v. 11.1.115.54

It will be included to my next version of Dreams which may come today at 11 PM or tomorrow 6AM.

Building takes too long.. :D
