So we got a demo model of the moto x at my store today and I take it that's the camera that you are playing with(iB4STiD)? I like it. Kinda light on features but it's UI is really nice and all I care about camera wise is nice photo quality and HDR so it's nice. I especially like the way to zoom in by just sliding your finger up. How's it coming along, and is it something you are going to be including?

AT&T Galaxy S4 Running Google Edition Kangbean 4.3 w/ ktoonez's kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] iB4STiD:
thanks man!! very nice of u to say... as u know its tough sometimes but, the feedback from the users make it all worth it :good:

nice thanks man for feedback!!

i go back n forth right now im using 2.1 for testing .. but i switch all the time, Im happy tho with both versions now!

do this instead.. make a nadroid backup of just data, clean install the 1.50.. let it load fully, then rebbot into recovery then just restore *data* .:good:

nice!! did u see my screentshots couple of posts back :)

oh i have that done... just have not had a chance to fix the editing that can be done in the gallery if that doesnt matter to you send me a pm..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] WMguy:
On stock ROMs they come on whenever you touch the screen and go off after about 5 seconds. That seems like common sense to me. That way you can see them for navigation. If they only come on after you touch them, there's no point in them coming on at all. They use squat for battery power so that's a non issue too.

Was just verifying everyone else's was functioning the same way cause I've been dirty flashing. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] iB4STiD:

Any way to reenable home button lag...not sure what it does but it seems to screw with nova launcher. If I have it setup to go to previews, the screen comes up and goes away quickly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] MaxCarnage:
Hmmm...on the last faux kernel I would randomly lose connectivity and have to reset my connections to get it back.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] iB4STiD:
this is based on his ver 2.. not sure if u tried this one
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] MaxCarnage:
I'll give it a try and report back; it's not like it's difficult to flash back to the old kernel if there are issues. :good:

Currently on 4.2.2, want to go 4.3. Can I restore nandroid data from 4.2.2 into a clean 4.3 or will it break stuff?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mrnovanova:
Too many variables. You should do a clean install with a tb restore.

Carried by a Raven
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] iB4STiD:
I would back up apps and app data with tb, then if you do choose to restore just data and have any problems, you could just clean install 4.3 then us tb for apps
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] qwer43:
I will try this steps.

just to ask, the short cut option is not available for 4.3 not like the older ROMS?

Thank you.

It says it's google services...but I have location history disabled everywhere, even in the new android device manager...I still have the option enabled in Settings > Location Access...the Wifi/Mobile network setting...but there's no reason for the wakelock right? Google services is showing keep awake as long as the phone has been unplugged. it lists Bookmarks syc, play services, services framework, network location, constacts sync and account manager. When I turn off location access, it stops.

Hey [MENTION=1380660]iB4STiD[/MENTION]. Great work on the new rom. I do have a few questions though. For some reason when Im using nova prime it's getting A LOT of FC's. I didn't get it on your last edition, so it's kind of strange to me. Anyways I really AM enjoying the ROM. This really is a very stable and powerful, fast build. Its really cool to think that there are still touch with frameworks Vinny's all of this AOSP code. Kinda wish this stock camera from touch wiz was still on this rom. oh by the way I am using kt's own settings. Just trying to figure out what's going on with the little hiccups. Thanks for your work, buddy. Since I'd these people don't realize dev's could actually keep these Roms to themselves or make some money off of them. But you choose to share them . sooooo Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dillis:
so would you prefer faux over ktoonz? just curious if i should switch (im all about the battery life):good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] iB4STiD:
AJ sent me version 2.. i just modified it to init.d and adb remount, faux has not released his final version i believe i havent checked or asked him, i dont wanna bug him lol

thanks man very nice of u!!!.. did u restore nova settings? maybe something went screwy with the restore? I do have a moto x camera add-on but gallery effects editing isnt working .. still have to play with it, sick again.. hmm im falling apart :p

thats a tuff one.. hmm.. I say try em both.. battery also depends alot on how u use your device.. :good:

To those, like me, who were reluctant to stay on this ROM due to the camera not being able to save to the external SD card, your prayers have been answered!

Use this in conjunction with the Xposed Framework:

How does this ROM compare to Task 650's AOKP? I'm afraid to ask in his thread because he seems to get pissed off at anyone who asks the "wrong" questions. iB4STiD seems like a much nicer guy ;)

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] freebee269:
this rom is touchwiz based. aokp is aosp based. things you get in aokp will not work with kangabean because the frameworks are different and would need to be modified to work with each other. like take for instance having apps on lock screen circle in kangabean. on aokp that's default because all aosp roms have that option. on touchwiz android 4.3 that's not an option so ib4stid would have to modify the aosp part of that framework to work on touchwiz framework to put apps on lock screen circle in kangabean. sounds like alot of work and it is.

"iB4STiD seems like a much nicer guy" = the understatement of the year!! :laugh:

Isn't this ROM (Kangabean) based on the Google Edition ROM? I thought Goldeneye was the TouchWiz-based ROM by iB4STiD.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] boostmx:
I believe the Google Edition ROM is a tweaked vanilla android ROM built over the TouchWiz framework, so although it's "aosp", it's still tweaked to be able to run on our phones. That's why when Google releases updates, they still need to be modified by Samsung (and HTC for their GE phone) to get it working on our devices.

Battery Life

This might be a stupid question and I apologize in advance if it is, but how is everyone able to get such good battery life? I am currently on the latest version with the ktoonsez kernel and i havent touched any of the settings or anything. I am on my phone a lot, but even then the maximum screen on time i was ever able to achieve the past 5 days was just under 2 hours. I am barely able to get 7-8 hours of use out of the phone and it's starting to become frustrating. I just reinstalled the whole rom and kernel from scratch again this morning, and still no dice. Do i have a defective phone? is there something i am missing? any help would be greatly appreciated.

---------- Post added at 12:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:10 AM ----------

on another note as well, when clicking on the battery graph, it always shows the wifi as "on" with a constant blue line, even though i have turned it off... don't know if this is a known issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] scarmon25:
WiFi scan is always on then. Its a feature of 4.3. Also you can click on the graph and it not force close?

that al depends what ur coming from.. if coming from tw based rom then yes i would clean install, if coming from an older version of kangabean you can dirty flash thats ur choice!. here are other ways around the pia process..

1. backup all ur apps and app data with tb .. after u clean install use tb batch feature to restore

2. make a nandroid backup, clean install rom, then after initial setup reboot to recovery, do an advanced restore of just *data* from ur nandroid backup

in saying all that do what works for u, if you have problems however clean install and try above suggestions
