ok guys,

news from Brasil LOL....

N4 with PSX still in the family....go to wife or if I didn´t like and miss Pure Speed back to me, simple !!!!

I really like my N4, the glass feel and the PSX features.

:)

*edit: Vangelis fault....

Did you get root yet?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Vangelis13:
I'll try to convince [MENTION=4429892]Martin_Ro[/MENTION] to go to his place tomorrow or so, when he's rooting his so we can root mine too. ^_^
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jonup:
You are lucky having him so close. You had no go in either XP or Ubuntu?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Vangelis13:
Had to leave home mid-installing xp. And Ubuntu sort of didn't boot properly.

Buying a Dell laptop in a couple of days from a friend for 50 Euro. Linux preinstalled.. :rolleyes:

P. S. I'm obviously kidding about going to his place. Unless he says I can go, of course.. :p:D
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] nileshgr:
Just live boot from USB key. It's easy. Lots of tutorials around.

Alternatively you could use vbox on windows and assign USB device to the VM after it boots. I used to do the same, on Linux (as I am a full time Linux user) for my Xperia devices. Some of the tools specific to the device were only for windows.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] :
Hello guys, all the nexus 5 stuff around! :) my question is if Pure Speed X wont make more builds (being the last 4.3 the 28th of October one) or do you think they will keep releasing for 4.3? I would love to have a Completed build with no updates I would appreciate if you are going to stop releasing for 4.3 call the last build something like FINAL BUILD 4.3 Pure Speed X.

Thank you!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] derekr44:
Pretty sure 8.5 is the final 4.3 build.

Hi ctfrommn

can you make some kITkAT buils for Maguro with this bin's?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=47151583&postcount=282

I hope you dont let Maguro with out PSX :fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jonup:
I bet this went over his head. How do I know? It went way over mine.:silly:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ctfrommn:
Yea...8.5 is the last 4.3 build.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jonup:
8.5 is the final 4.3! but there is so much more to come for N4 though... as long as I keep Vangelis in check. ;)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Martin_Ro:
I think using windows with the correct adb drivers is the easiest way to do things. I have mine unlocked,rooted and with twrp installed 1h after it arrived. Would have been even earlier but we have had guests ^^

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] senthilrameshjv:
Hey All,

I just wanna say of word of appreciateion here, not for the ROM but for this thread and the contributors here.

I am subscribed to around 20+ topics here and I dont get time to see all of them. I check the thread title for updates and if any replies to my queries/bugs.

However, this is the only thread I've been reading every reply. Its not only ROM specific. I get to know about other things as well. Its like the General Chat that is there in many forums. Fun reading all the way. And ppl are not rude or harsh.

Its good to see PSX for N5 already started, sad to see ppl moving on, especially Vangelis. Gonna miss the memes. I am with CFT here.. Not moving on to N5. The reviews make me to want it more but the same reviews still say Camera and Battery aren't of much improvement.

Gonna wait for N6 when the official update will be over for N4 and i can finally afford an upgrade.. I can see that the N4 will be as strong as a beast until N6 releases. Ofcourse, when PSX is around you dont have to worry about.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jonup:
You doing way too much thinking.:p
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] nileshgr:
That credit goes to my friend [MENTION=5275798]ankurk[/MENTION] who happens to be a slient PSX user. I don't think too-much :P
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Vangelis13:
:) I'll be lurking around here still, worry not. Am sending my n5 to [MENTION=5029685]jonup[/MENTION] to root it for me, we still have time.

Bellow a pic of some ridiculous Lamborghini (my Spanish bartender said it's a special one with 700 horses or something) taken with my new Nikon SL....ehm, no, taken with the n5. Which btw has better battery life than the most optimised psx on the n4. And that with full stock. ;)

Edit: Lamborghini Aventador, apparently..
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] spider623:
It's not only that, the feel of n5 is the same as n4, even the speed it's only a few ms apart , there is no reason to upgrade before the a58 chip is out

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] derekr44:
I need to grab some pics of the cars that belong to the owner of the shipping company across from my office. He's the guy that bought the '60s Batmobile at auction. I used to see him driving around a powder blue Aventador. Every once in awhile I'll see his Bentley or his F430.

Mmmm 16nm chips... Sounds yummy perhaps BBQ. I hope it doesn't cook my new phones
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] lordgavers:
He was noting that the N5 camera is good and battery life on the N5 is better than PSX 8.5 with stock settings so:

N5 Stock>PSX 8.5>N4 KitKat.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Galaxo60:
I don't want to be rude, but I don't know where you read your reviews because most of sites already compared the Nexus 5 camera with other phones and it get a really nice results, moreover the camera on the Nexus 5 can take really good screenshots on low light.

I think the camera is a big improvement over the Nexus 4, still not a professional camera or can take the pics that you could take with a Sony/Nikon/Camera, but for most people it is really good.

Video: Nexus 5 vs iPhone 5S Camera (A must see for anyone):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qp6clWG-b5c

At least for me, I will grab one as fast as I can, I live in a place where there is no Google Play Devices, but the good part is that easily I can go to USA and grab one, no more than 2 hours on airplane.

Besides this, 16GB for me are not enough anymore when I download a lot of music from Google Music and games are becoming heavier; I downloaded yesterday Asphalt 8 because it is free now and is around 1.5GB.

About the battery, most reviews say that it is ok, better that Nexus 4, but not a fantastic battery. You can easily get 1 day with stock ROM, so maybe with custom ROM you can get more. The best battery so far it seems that is on Sony Xperia Z1 and LG G2.

Hope it helps!.

:good:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ctfrommn:
There really isnt much difference between that build and the 8.2 release. I think the Maguro ship has sailed guys....Im not going to hack a build together, so unless someone can make a working non-experimental kernel I think the GN has officially seen its last PSX :(
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jonup:
Don't forget to send me an Aventador Convertible along with the phone. I brought my helmet to work today, I can go take it for a beating.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] madcat1990:
Is it because Qualcomm won't make new drivers?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ctfrommn:
Its because there is no new kernel. Im almost positive 4.4 needs a 3.4 kernel to work, and Maguro is still using the 3.0 one. Someone please correct me if Im mistaken though.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] saranyan:
Maguro uses a TI omap processor. TI has shut down that division.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] madcat1990:
I find it sad that this keeps happening with android devices. I wonder how apple does it...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ferrocene:
I thought the whole point of nexus devices was that the hardware drivers are open source. Is that not the case?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] senthilrameshjv:
With your preface, i thought you are gonna sound rude.. But, no you didnt :D

Btw, yes.. i have read reviews that compared the cameras and battery. It was heartening to see them. BUT, I dont see them as MUCH improvement as I stated in the post. I was thinking if the camera is too good to avoid and the battery life is far better ( i am getting one day battery life with 2.5-3.5 screen on time on data with PSX N4 already), i'd shell out money somehow even if its not affordable now.

Considering only the camera upgrade, which FOR ME isn't too important ( i can easily edit pics and make them lotttt better than how it was taken), I decided to settle with N4. N4 still has one more official update and can get even two more android versions easily with Custom ROMs. 2011 Xperia devices still getting latest updates. Also, its been only 5 months I had my N4.

Though, watch out, my friend said he is importing two N5 next month. If I see it and like it more than having N4 I may still jump ship. Never say never..

Hope I dint hurt u in my replies ;)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] capncybo:
It's not really a wonder... they control very aspect of their devices. Software & hardware. Device Compatability is guaranteed. Until they choose to abandon their older legacy devices. Don't be fooled though... Apple does it too.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Kocai:
hardware drivers are open source? Uhm.. no. A big no. One of the, if not the main, reason why JBQ left Google. (someone please correct me if I'm wrong)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] capncybo:
Let me take a stab at this one guys... feel free to chime in and correct me if I'm wrong.

This does get complicated, and IMHO the term open source is vastly over-used & misunderstood.

The Google Operating System AKA=Android is Open Source

However not every aspect of your phone is open source.

For Example: Google Apps ARE NOT!

Google gets paid money by the phone manufacturers & cell carriers to include these in the ROM.

Also the Linux Kernel may be open source.

But it's always changing & needs to communicate with the hardware drivers which in turn, communicate & control the specific hardware/electronics.

This however, is actually very different from one component or phone to another.

The Drivers are not usually open source.

Even if, or when they are... they are written for specific hardware & there is no guarantee of them being future compatable with future electronics.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ctfrommn:
Yes, hardware drivers are as closed source as they come....Google openly states guaranteed support for 2 years, no more. This is by design. Im not sure what their exact reasoning is, but its always been like this.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] :
Hey dev, are you getting an N5?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ctfrommn:
Thats the plan....finances must cooperate though. Many have been exceedingly generous though so far, so its looking better everyday.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] capncybo:
This is actually a very good point. My guess is as follows...

The entire world economy is actually very capitalistic in nature.

Google could stretch their required driver support for say THREE or FOUR years.

However, that would @#$ off some of the hardware manufacturers by forcing them to put re-development funding into supporting legacy hardware. This in turn would lessen sales & reduce profit margin.

Fact is neither Google nor the manufacturers really want this to happen.

They Hope that within THREE years or less...

You'll buy a newer phone.

And guess what... you (and I) probably will.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] capncybo:
Hey Guys, I was curious about people's opinions regarding the ported 4.4 version of "Google Hangout with SMS"

I Understand it's a port but myself...

I Don't care for the additional Lag or Step when attempting to write a SMS.

Google may be tring to get us to use their chat client by default.

But to me it just kinda seems clunky when using it... like an un-needed step.

My guess is with many users... we will likely end up changing our default messaging app.

And sorry Google... I really doubt your going to win this round.

Well not until they choose which messaging application to buy out & integrate.

EDIT: not trying to be negative... The rest of KitKat is Very impressive IMHO
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Andrew025:
I don't really mind it at all since I use hangouts regularly.

Can I send a Google Hangouts invite to my Apple friends (that actually sounds kinda fun)

I'll actually try my BlackBerry friends too

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] derekr44:

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] capncybo:
Cool, Did you have to set it up for them?

Cause I just sent her a Hangout request via SMS & haven't heard back from her yet...

Which... after some additional thought...

Could actually be deemed more of a Positive than a Negative LOL (Just Kidding, Really)

Thanks & Good to know BTW

Hey guys i need to ask you a question. When im doing a videocall (skype or hangout or similar) if i've plugged my hearphones the audio is ok but with the external microphone the audio seems disturbed and it is not so good. So im thinking, its a hardware fault or something related with rom/kernel? ( when im listening music or when calling with the external speaker works just fine , and also for system sounds, everything seems ok)

- "K, I'm not good @ this social stuff! U r trying to convert me!"

Although I must admit, I'm not really a Google Hangout Fan... (Yet) either.

Perhaps maybe, it's just me
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] derekr44:
Yeah, it's my older siblings, who have had their iPhones since day 1. They're pretty tech savvy (I know, that's an oxymoron...) but they know how to use stuff. They aren't the kind to go to the Apple store and take a class...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] resynx:
The merging of Hangouts & SMS seems really half baked and unfinished to me.. Many of us thought that it would be similar to iMessage and that hope fell through. But besides that, we don't have basic functionality like quick reply or even a widget :eek: And it can be slow starting up too, taking a few seconds to display and load everything (which should NOT be happening on the stock messaging app) :rolleyes:

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] :
love this thread very good people answering although sometimes offtopic can make newbie questions dissapear and never be answered :p (I reccomend using the search button but if not you can always ask)

I want to point out something

PURE SPEED X is purely about speed and performance, and you notice this just opening playstore for the first time

1. my question is, does this "PURE SPEED" compromise battery life compared to other roms? Im doing the tests right now and it looks a bit power consuming (I still have to repeat the test again) but it would be nice to know your opinions ^^

2. second thing 2G 3G toogle switch CAN'T be implemented right? I've found many ways to kind of make a shortcut in this thread but its not as fast as it would be a simple toogle, it is because of the fact its AOSP that it can't be implemented?

Can't we make like 2 buttons on desktop to automatically change radio for gsm or wcdma+gsm?

3. Last question, sorry for the long post, In case I don't succeed on finding a faster way to switch from 2g to 3g (actually Im on 3 moves touch the shortcut, touch list, select 2g or 3g+2g) is not possible to have a good automatic data type implemented in some kind of apk? The one implemented on this rom and by default on every android system is always on 3g... I would like to have always 2g when screen is off and I use whatsapp for example, and when I open any other app like playstore, chrome or google drive automatically switches to 3g :) what apps do you guys use to deal with this lack of functionality?

(im not saying anything bad about this rom, its a really good one and in my opinion the best I've tried so far, just the 2g/3g switch saves you lots of battery if used properly because we all know 3g is more battery consuming right?)

Battery life is excellent, people is getting around 5hrs screen on time with default kernel. About the others, there won't be any update or addition until PSX 4.4 will be released.

;)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] capncybo:
The battery & speed on this ROM are close to about as good as you will find with this phone.

But yes to squeeze ou the most of your battery, eliminating excessive needs for high cell data connections is crucial.

So if you are near available WiFi have it remain connected.

Try the App Smart Wifi Toggler... it doesn't even need the GPS it uses Triangulation of your nearest cell towers to decide if it should try to connect to your WiFi and if it tries to many times it turns the WiFi on or off based on your cell tower location.

Additionally look at the app Juice defender... you might have to pay for some of the more advanced features but it should allow the 2G 3G changes you are looking for based on Screen ON/OFF or via location.

Some other ROMS have what they call smart 2G/3G such as Catalysm but they are nowhere near as smooth as PSX.

Good Luck
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sub1287:
I get better battery life on 4g.

from my RastaKat/Trinity [n⁴]
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] capncybo:
I think thats up for debate. If you have a good stable 4G connection well then Yes.

It's fast & in most instances... when obtaining short bursts of data the so called RACE-to-IDLE condition will occur.

(meaning you get done what you need & the phone can then slow down & enter a slower state)

But in most cases stable 4G is un-likely and even being inside buildings & such will cause the phone to switch to slower data sorces that have better penetrating characteristics.

Switching between 2G/3G/4G often results in more battery drain.

EDIT: Maintaing a good WiFI data connection typically yeilds the best results.
