How can i enter in recents apps with long press central botton?

I dont like the twoo taps in the button

Thanks coolboy
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] adichandra:
Yes i did. But it doesnt make sense to supply a rom without a browser, and i think aosp browser is much faster and much better than chrome by miles, and it's really a hassle to new users to flash the rom only to realize that the browser is not included and they need to browse page by page or search to find the flashable zip of the aosp browser.

Hope that makes sense :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Pinan:
Several ROMs have no browser. Likely because users will state "but I like Chrome", "not me. I like Dolphin", Dolphin?? Are you nuts?? Opera baby", "but what about AOSP? It rocks!"

So the dev will simply leave it out allowing the user to choose their own. After all, this is a dev forum where that sort of thing is pretty easy. ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] adichandra:
Well that makes sense too. Thanks :)

Hey Guys, anyone if you experienced this bug where your new IME doesnt appear anymore? The little keyboard icon is missing even when you type.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] klukiyan:
quadrant stats

Hi guys, I didn't know which of the threads is the best to post this issue, but I really need your help and advice, so please take my message seriously and if you can, respond,it's really a dilemma with roms now.

I've tested quadrant stats on 4 different roms (quadrant benchmark standard free from play store)

on all the test has been made with no additional apps installed.

1) Cool_boy's google editions gave me 12000 score

2) janjan's google edition gave me 11500

3) Pacman's 4.3 v3 gave me 8000

4) JellyBam 4.3 (non xda rom) also gave me 8000

the first 2 fascinated me by the speed, but no options to customize lockscreen targets, hardware keys, DPIs and so on

the 3 and 4 have all the customizations, but benchmark is considerably lower and I could even feel slower performance (when launching camera for example)

so I have to choose either uncustomizable speed, either customizable slower speed. I can't decide. I like both options

ideally I would choose something in the middle.

is there any option to add locscreen targets in google edition. I would be happy having google edition just with few few customizations.

thx for help and advice
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Atari.2600:
Shoulden't this be asked in the general area instead of a specific ROM thread. The choice should be yours. Clearly cool boy has created a fantastic ROM.. So I suggest you ask in a different thread if it does not involve his personal ROM. But that's just my opinion.. :) Thanks..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] avinashadvani:
Hi,

does this rom have the separate volume levels for ringtone and notifications or is it still just one volume for both.

thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ardsar:
It only has one control for ringtone and notification

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Goronok:
Run a GE ROM and install Xposed framework. It allows you to do most of these things your talking about :

Xposed Framework - Install this app, open it, click install framework, reboot.

Download these plug-ins to use with xposed :

DPI Settings Module - Install this apk and activate it in Xposed. The app allows you to set DPI for any individual application without changing the entire systems DPI, much like Paranoid.

Gravitybox - Another crazy plug-in that allows you to do a whole slew of modding. (add pie menu, change lockscreen and status bar options, etc)

xTheme Engine - Allows you to apply any ported CM10 theme on top of google edition roms. Please note that the themes have to be ported to work - google search for these, there are a ton of threads.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] gorylutza:
Anyone noticed that the camera app on this rom doesn`t focus ok ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Atari.2600:
If you tap on the screen before you take a photo it focuses better.. But I agree, the camera auto focus is a little off..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] gorylutza:
I did that but the camera on this rom is worse than on other 4.3 rom
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Atari.2600:
So don't use it? Use the other ROM? Lol I still love this ROM and for me personally I don't use the camera very often anyway.. :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] gorylutza:
I love this rom, is fast and smooth but i need a good working camera
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Atari.2600:
Maybe cool boy can add a camera mod for you? Or remove the camera apk and you can add your own camera apk? Just wait for his feed back..

Instructions:

-----------------

- Install Custom Recovery: ClockworkMod 6.0.3.6

- Disable SIM PIN before installing

I want install this rom... but how can I disable de pin ?? Thanks !!!!!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ferganer:
I can't say how I like this ROM enough.

It's smooth and rock-solid.

The battery life was amazing, but after odexing the ROM (see here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=44983711), it seems to have improved even more. Here is another screenshot for a rather moderate use (1 hr and 13 minutes of on-screen time with a bit of calling, browsing, messaging and emailing). The idle power consumption is absolutely great.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] andr01d3:
Is the move to SD button enabled on this ROM?

I tried the GE 4.2.2 and has not this feature :(
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Duendes:

Love this Rom but having come from an HTC One X with SlimRom I missed the extended quicksettings/toggles.

Anyone been able to get this mod (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1999125&page=79) working with this Rom?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Atari.2600:
Have you tried a app from the play store called notification toggle? Give that a try..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Goronok:
Make sure you activate each module within the Xposed app - it's on the 2nd tab under modules I believe. Reboot and everything should work :)

working on new update

i might release a moded rom with 5 way reboot . center clock . battery percent . etc

maybe 2 roms:

- modded

- unmodded

and i'm changing version numbers so:

v1.0

v1.1 = current update v2.0

v1.2 = coming soon

Good job with that very lightweight ROM man! But why don't you set the modded version as default / only one?

Keep it up!

My 2 cents.

I would like to thank you, Goronok for your great hints. And to thank the author of the ROM.

Now I have fastest rom, with all customizations that I missed in it. Almost everything.

The only thing I couldn't find was how to assign locksreen targets? Anyone knows?

Otherwise, everything is just perfect now. Gravity Box module is epic, it contains almost all the possible customizations that I ever came accross.

i odexed it and it hasn't changed anything, probably made things slower if anything and got tons of FC's in apps, stay away

Hey guys, what kernel do you use with this rom? I use it stock but kinda notice that it drains faster than the stock touchwiz samsung rom..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] *SanSiro*:
This rom has no browser included!

Install AOSP browser with bookmark synchronisation.

AOSP_Browser_and_Sync_for_S4_v2.zip (2.13MB):

Flash it in recovery (CWM)

After that go to settings, accounts, Google.

Tab on your gmail account and select (check) browser synchronisation.

Done!

;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Duendes:
Or just install Google Chrome !!

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] frans777:
I've seen app 2 sd somewhe on 4.3 rom (or maybe it was CM)

About photos to sd card - its something should be done, I have 64 Gb sd card, if the camera wont let me save my pics on sd its kinda annoying cause 9 gigs of internal is not enough..

But the thing is that google devices dont have sd expansion slot so that why we cant choose where to save photos or moving apps to sd
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] plakers:
Yep, also missing the save to SD for camera... But GE Roms doesn't support it at the moment. Alternative cameras ports/apps don't do the trick for me as almost of them don't offer full HW support and not so good quality (and camera is the only reason I'm not on CM). The save to external SD is the only thing I miss, quality is good and full HW support. A so simple function not implemented is a bit frustrating! hehe

4.3 GE is really fast, light, stable, good battery. Just missing some code to see it improved (but related to Sammy, not Google).

The best compromise IMHO (with some stuff like Viper4Android sound, a good kernel, and your done!)

Keep the good work guys.
