I had 11/16 installed and loved it all except for some issues around gmaps (which i use alot) so went back to kitkat.

I do have 1 specific questions to 12/6 rls users:

- does camera work when used within video google hangout? it's xmas and i'd like to be able to chat with family oversees using hangout video? It's a rather specific question and was curious if someone could share their experience.

Thanks in advance! Great work MW! can't wait for further dev/FML tweaks on your end!

Kernel + settings make a huge difference

Thank you!

Been running this ROM for 2 weeks and it's been extremely stable. My only issue (aside from the few bugs mentioned in the OP) was some lag when launching apps. Changed to Smitty's beta2 kernel and applied the settings referenced above. The difference is amazing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RW-1:
I got 2 minutes with an N6 today...

Joygasam!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vrahn:
Where do I enable this in the ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Try these settings: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=57510478&postcount=12677

Give these minfrees a try with the above settings:

Forground App: 10

Visible App: 20

Secondary Server: 100

Hidden App: 120

Content Provider: 95

Empty App: 195

I have had amazing results with my newest custom test settings, no lag and great battery.

Screenshot is the same as it has always been, hold the power button and the volume down button at the same time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jguerdat:
Do I do this all with 3C? This sort of thing is new to me so finding how/where to do them is a challenge.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stebomurkn420:
2 of the three freezes I've had in the past 18 hours are a result from me multitasking while an app was installing. i.e. es file explorer started to install as I was typing an SMS in hangout. Phone froze requiring a battery pull.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AirBoss24K:
I honestly still think you might be on to something. I've turned off Google Now to see if the freezing stops. Turning off Google Now gets rid of that far left pane altogether so I'm curious if it's integration into the launcher has anything at all to do with it. Will be back with updates.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
New build up, nothing particularly special so you can skip on it if you wish, however I did the build in order to test some things I did so I figured I might as well upload it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
Hey, can you guys check to see if using a launcher besides the Google one (the one with swiping to the left just gets you Google Now), such as the AOSP one included with the ROM, helps the freezing issue? Anytime I've had a freeze, I've been in the Google launcher, so I'm trying the AOSP one for a while.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DevVorteX:
Been using aosp and nova since my post last night. No lock ups so far. But if my luck stays the same, I'll get one in about 5 minutes from posting this :)

EDIT:

LOL, did have another lockup, came from lockscreen and quickly clicked phone icon. Lockup. I went into trickster, and upped the minimum cpu frequency from 192 to 328 or whatever the next step up is. My phone's never liked the 192 frequency. Again, haven't had a problem since doing that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DevVorteX:
Please excuse my two posts in a row, but is there a know issue with network location?

google now keeps telling me that to get location based cards, I need to turn on wifi, and network location. When I click settings, it takes me to location settings, and I have location "on", and Mode = "high accuracy" which when I click on it says gps, wifi, and mobile network location.

So, as far as I can tell, it's configured right, but google now is not seing it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spearman792:
Has anyone tried the 11/7 build yet? I've been waiting for a while to pull the trigger on a 4.4 ROM, but this changelog made me really curious haha

"Managed to implement one of the two surprises I wanted to, you'll see it right away!"

Anyone know what that means?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrcooter:
Haven't seen anything about this in any 4.4 ROM threads about it actually being used so i thought I'd ask... Are the new 4.4 gpu drivers for our device being used in this ROM? I am no developer by any means so i don't know what exactly that all in tales or what it might even fix. But you can't learn if you don't ask right? Lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DevVorteX:
So far, I just see a new boot animation. Just installed though, so no idea what else there may be.

I'm almost positive that this is not implemented yet. It's still very new, and I don't believe anyone's got it working yet. So, there are still the graphical glitches here and there. But from my testing, upping the minimum cpu frequency from 192 to 384, and using either aosp launcher or something like nova or apex (just not the new launcher with google now on the left screen), fixes all my lockups and reboots (so far).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
I was actually curious if it could be a voltage issue, as the lockups seem consistent with a voltage-starvation... you might be on to something there.

I've ran into some troubles with Google Now and location based cards as well, not sure why that is as everything else is working fine. Location stuff I mean... there's plenty of things that aren't working fine! LOL

Well my hope was that somebody else would mention it, but I took some time to resize the boot animation from the Nexus 5 (1080p screen) to the Galaxy Nexus (720p screen). I would've done it sooner, but I really wanted to take my time with it to make sure it came out well. I even ran a little program I keep in my toolbox of sorts called OptiPNG on it to make sure the file size of it was as small as possible.

I did try to see what I could do with them, but kernel development like that is just way out of my league. It's not as simple as just using some updated files, you need the kernel to know how to use them as well!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stebomurkn420:
Yo mw , when do you sleep bro??? Lol. Anyways. I have had my min CPU frequency turned up to 384 using aosp (trebuchet?) Launcher. I still have had those three freeze ups. None today so far! Not trying to rain on anyone parade...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
i gave up on flashing roms to my phone. back on 4.2.2 stock rooted. it runs perfectly.better than any 4.3.1 roms in my opinion. i was waiting for the twrp version update to flash this 4.4 but ill just wait till i get a nexus 5
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
Well I did link to a TWRP update that would allow you to flash it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
Sleep? What's that?! :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] swordrune10:
so right now im trying to work out the google dialer app.. i found the proper app in a nexus 5 dump but it doesnt seem to be able to search for places on its own... something is missing... anyways i uploaded it for dissection.. really would like to see this work with this rom =] also think this is why its not bundled with gapps yet, its still a mystery

UPDATE: looking at the teleservice.apk that was in the nexus 5 dump and it seems it necessary for the google dialer.. issue being i tried to install it, even deleteing the roms teleservice.apk, and it wont install... =/ also uploading teleservice.apk from nexus 5
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rushead:
Why bother posting, Negative Nellie? Go get your Nexus 5 and leave us to our fun.

Sent from a frequent flasher.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mtbhk44:
Thanks for your effort on this. The phone is locking up on me at least 3/4 times a day. And it's during various times. For example, this morning I went for a run - activated Poweramp and then went to turn on my Runkeeper app - the app froze and then the phone froze. Needed a battery pull. About five minutes ago I tried to get into settings and the phone froze again. I havne't noticed any real pattern, other when I'm attempting to multi task or change a setting.

I had no luck at all on any 4.3 ROMs. This is running much much better than any of those I put on this thing, but all things considered, 4.2.2 ran the best.

I'm also noticing one other thing, when connected to bluetooth and streaming music, when I turn the phone off, it stutters the music for about a half a second - it's usually when the music is competing with sound of the phone closing.

I'll continue to run this for a few days. Again, thanks for your efforts - they are appreciated
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
who's negative Positive Phil?? I was stating that for the 4.4 i will just wait. well im not going with the n5 just yet. gonna have fun with you guys for a while.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] swordrune10:
you guys are funny...

anyways, I'll be getting off work around 2:30pm MST and I'll be striping down the Google dialer and nexus 5 teleservice than.. has anyone looked at those yet? like the 5 people who downloaded them..? =P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
Still working on dev things... as I've probably mentioned before, I'm always most interested in doing things that haven't been done before... new little project: implement a temperature sensor. The phone uses a BMP180 barometer sensor which of course also measures ambient temperature. Somehow it was decided to not bother reporting the temperature as apparently a barometer is far more important than the ability to know the friggin temperature? I'm almost positive that there are plenty of other devices using this sensor for not only the barometer but also the temperature...

Don't worry, screen lockups is still I priority, I just wanted to waste a few minutes of time doing something different. :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
You can do all of this with Trickster Mod app, I recommend purchasing the donate version because a few things cannot be done using the free version. Trust me, the donate version is worth the couple dollars, I've been using it for like over 2yrs now and it's great. Some may tell you to just use the free version and then modify the minfrees with 3C but using two different apps to tweak a kernel is known to cause major issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rushead:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vrahn:
Can anyone give insight on how to do screenshot
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Dude, seriously????? I just told you 4 posts prior to the one I'm responding to. Read the posts before asking the same question 3 times.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
School is done! Yay!

Now I can really get back to work on Android stuffs.

Here's why I'm awake now!: Dog was barking like crazy. I finally get her to stop, and then I hear my car alarm going off in the garage. And the car just sounds like it's dying. Didn't respond to the key remote etc. So yay, not only do I need to replace the rear struts, I need to replace the battery too now! :eek: I guess I shouldn't have spent so much on Christmas presents. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] prbadboy69:
Well glad your school is done for now, but sorry about your car. I feel you on that, I just had to replace all 4 tires on my SUV, then to find out one of my tire sensor is damaged. So I had to cough up more money for that. I'm just lucky my stepson is a mechanic, so no labor $$ for me
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jguerdat:
Thanks for this. I bought the donate version and found all the stuff you mentioned. Relatively easy although one point of your suggestions wasn't totally clear to me:

Smartreflex: All On (MPU undervolted by 25 across the board, IVA and Core leave at default)

I turned all on and took 25 off the MPU settings so I think I did it right.

So, rebooted and everything went to hell. VERY laggy, even hitting the power button took a few to several seconds to respond. My issue has been primarily with browsers (everything else seems to work fine) - with these changes, the browser essentially became useless. This site has been problematic due to the relatively complex design but it almost froze completely. Tried to power off but gave up after 10 minutes and pulled the battery. Disabling the tweaks gets me back to the previous condition with no lag or problem except for browsers.

Here's my profile backup - see anything wrong?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rushead:
[MENTION=2853378]Nephilim[/MENTION] has always said that his settings aren't for everyone, especially RAB. You need to mess around with them & find what works for your phone. My phone is notorious for not liking the extremities of [MENTION=2853378]Nephilim[/MENTION]'s settings. So tweak slowly, one value at a time until you find the right combo.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jguerdat:
Believe me, I understand. The severe difference in operation leads me to believe something else is at work. Different hardware versions? Who knows? I am not giving up, just reporting.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] npjohnson:
Hey man, tested this on a gnex and loved it. Now that your updated to lollipop, coupd you try a Nexus 6 build? I would love some FML on my Nexus 6.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] musical_chairs:
Setting MIN_FREQ to 250000 makes mine fall to pieces. As in, it is completely unusable, with lag measured in minutes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RW-1:
+1 on trickster, in fact until now I didn't need the donate version, but did that today in preparation for this ROM and for the N6....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Did you set the minfree values i posted? If they didn't stick that may be your issue. Otherwise I'm not sure because my device has zero lag with my current posted test settings. As for the undervolting, i meant to click the <> arrow next to mpu down so its at -25, thatll set all mpu voltages 25 under. Smartreflex should all be on by default but just lower those to 810.

Normally I would agree to an extent but lollipop is giving me the best deep sleep and battery I've ever gotten on my Gnex.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vrahn:
Sorry I didn't catch it the app didn't reload :facepalm:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ibenjakinov:
+1 on best deep sleep I've had on any ROM!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jguerdat:
Setting mine to 350000 seems to helped. Not completely but much better. Thanks.

Yup, just double-checked. I reset the MPU settings as you suggest. What seems to helped some was raising the Min_Freq to 350000. I will try other settings but am rather shooting blind since I can only guess at what I am doing based on variable names.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Meticode:
Some people were complaining about performance issues when using Neph's settings. I think it's been mentioned before, but for me this was happening as well. The culprit? Lightflow. When I'd open up the recent apps manager, or Chrome, or WhatsApp, etc... I'd get horrible lag issues. Sometimes minutes. It got to the point where I got a notification of "Lightflow isn't responding. Wait or OK to kill it" so I uninstalled it and the all the lag has gone anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheYoz:
OP can you focus getting MMS working on the next build?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rushead:
Wow
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RW-1:
Unbelievable.

Dont you love under 50 posters who can't read a thread?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mastertech007:
If it is like before, and i remember correctly, press volume and press power button at same time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jguerdat:
I wish it were that easy. Never installed Lightflow and have uninstalled nearly everything to try to detect a difference. :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Christopher8989:
OK I re-flashed it anew and yes it's smoooooth... Don't even need to overclocking. Changing animations to 0.5x made it even snappier.

Wiped system, data, cache, davik and factory reset. Flashed rom and boot. Let it be for 10 minutes then ran like that without Google for many hours. Phone and data works, so is wifi hotspot.

Next morning I flashed gapps and updated them to fix a FC. Installed gps toolbox and got gps lock. Google Map and Waze work.

Using rom toolbox pro I froze Google+ and Talk. I haven't installed all 20+ apps that I'll use just to see if the rom is still good and it is.

I'll try the Smithy new kernel and Nephilim's setting today and we'll see.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
Fixing a few bugs yet, just about ready to get a new build released though. After this next build, I will be working on just the stupid camera.

As for my car: the only thing I'm getting for Christmas this year is a car parts (and not the speakers I've been wanting for a year :p, it's more important I get to school and back safely!).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vrahn:
Thank you MW!!! This camera issue is killing me. My phone is my only camera and I've installed 5 other ones that do not work
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Hey man, no pressure and certainly not expecting anything. Just curious, did you possibly have a chance to get Ambient Display working upon notifications, don't really care if it wakes when picked up. I guess I just go so used to using Kit-Kat roms that wake the screen upon notifications that it's weird not having it, also, Light Flow still sucks and only works half the time. Anyway, looking forward to the next build, this one has been rock solid for me. Thanks for putting in the time between family and school. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RW-1:
I'm looking forward to, and watching, but cant jump on it as a daily until the camera access works, not so much for pics but other apps I have to use, no biggie, just dying from anticipation.

But hey, that said, you're doing a terrific job so far with this, I'll likely toss the new build on for a weekend to check it out anyways and give feedback. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AuroEdge:
Use Verizon's Messaging app plzkthx
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
MMS is working fine for me on any app I've tried. :/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Same here, I've used it on both WiFi and 4G without issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zzpianoman:
Is that for both sending AND receiving?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Yep, tested weeks ago.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheYoz:
Sorry if I came off demanding... wasn't meant that way. I tried reflashing 3-4 times with the recommended GAPPS and for some reason I can't send any MMS... only receive. Are you using the GAPPS in your first post? Maybe it's my sim card? The lollipop version you released has been nothing short of a miracle for this phone, but being in group chats and what not it forces me to use a version of 4.4.4. Any input would be awesome. Does it matter the version of recovery i'm using?

FTR im using this ROM:

FML-AOSP-5.0-20141207-toro.zip

And this version of GAPPS:

FML-AOSP-5.0-20141109-toro.zip
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RW-1:
It's your GAPPS. it's recommended to use the beta PA GAPPS with the new build, neph may post a link back to that thread, I'm on the run at the moment....

BTW - TWRP 2.8.3.0 out - go and get it - http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/toro
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oman0123:
I've never heard of gapps causing mms issues. I also cant send or receive mms. Maybe I'll try and see but I doubt it.

Thanks for the updated twrp links though :)

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RW-1:
It may be the underlying services included, however I answered this because it seemed that the updated gapps package may solve it. If not that it would be the reset and reflash that you'll do installing it.

The latest build with the PA GAPPs has working MMS.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheYoz:
Thanks for the tip... I tried this and I'm still unable to send MMS... I'm stumped at this point..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RW-1:
I would take it back to the beginning then, factory reset, clear cache and dalvik, then format /system.

reflash ROM, reflash GAPPs, and allow it to rebuild, do not use anything to restore apps from backup.

Then retry and report back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Christopher8989:
No more CRT screen off animation?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Lol, who cares? Lollipop is 100 times better than Kit-Kat.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RW-1:
Was good, but no longer needed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheYoz:
Did exactly this... no luck with MMS... I'm stumped

---------- Post added at 07:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:22 PM ----------

Did exactly this... no luck with MMS... I'm stumped. I revert back to any 4.4.4 ROM and it works without a hiccup.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
I kind of like the desaturated fade out it does now, looks pretty slick and makes more sense with how Lollipop is presented.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Christopher8989:
What's "desaturated fade out" ? Where is that?

---------- Post added at 01:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:43 AM ----------

The "ambient display" doesn't work since if doesn't wake up when I pick it up. I never tested it since I read you were having problem with it so when I first flash rom I turned it off.

---------- Post added at 01:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:45 AM ----------

I noticed just now that it's lagging when first turn on after screen off for 30 minutes or more. But after a few swipes or open an app or two then it's back to smoothness again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MarkayX2:
When you turn off the screen the display fades to black and white first
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Bump the min screen on up to 350mhz and see if that helps. Since our device is dated at this point you will tend to get a bit of lag when turning the screen on because its coming out of deep sleep.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rushead:
Yeah, gapps has nothing to do with it. It seems that some phones have working MMS, some don't. Mine doesn't send. It receives tho.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ibenjakinov:
Mine also has issues sending but it seems like I am receiving MMS...at least the messages I see. I know from talking to other people that were part of one of my group texts that I did not receive one or two that were sent out to the group tho.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nicotheandroidguy:
Try the Verizon Message app MMS completely works for me. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.verizon.messaging.vzmsgs
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rushead:
It's not an app issue. There's something else going on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheYoz:
Hmm... looks like verizon messages works... but I need to see if they are receiving separate texts out side of the group chat.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheYoz:
Hold that thought.... I can't send pics. Back to 4.4.4 :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jlvlawrence:
Have you guys that are having issues with MMS checked your APN settings? There have been some similar issues with CM 12 for the Verizon LG G3.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] prbadboy69:
Also in APN make sure it shows all Verizon. Same issue happened on KK.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheYoz:
Hey thanks for the tip.... I always used KK roms that had Slim APNs or I would manually flash them. Maybe Slim will come out with 5.0 with APN fixes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Meticode:
I think the new version of TWRP isn't playing well with the PA GAPPS latest. I'm not sure though. I updated TWRP, reflashed FML. Before doing so did a full wipe. Went to flash the full and mini versions of PA GAPPs and I get "E: Error executing updater binary in zip".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheYoz:
I just put TWRP 2.8.3 on yesterday and I was able to use the PA GAPPS mini without an issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Meticode:
I figured out the issue. It won't let you install full or mini. You have to use PA GAPPS micro if you use the PA ones.
