Any flashable zip for google dialer?..or maybe it can't use on slimkat and only work on n5 stock? Thanks
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] da900:
Look for Gapps by BaNkS in apps and themes section.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] niano_ys:
Hi,

Do you know which DPI enables 5*5 app drawer and 5 dock icons for GEL ?

Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Arju:
316dpi for 5x5 and 309dpi for 5x6
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] niano_ys:
Thanks for your very quick reply.

I tried 316 DPI but it still 5*6 icons in app drawer. Maybe need to clean a cache or something else ?

Thanks.

EDIT: I use TEXDOIDER_DPI to change the DPI. I tried 240 too but too many columns on homescreen :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Arju:
Oh I'm sorry. I'm on a different rom. Try to pump it up to stock kitkat dpi. 320dpi and see if that works.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] miqz:
Thanks, i will try..can i just flash without wipe? And any problem if i install BaNkS gapps instead of slim gapps?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] niano_ys:
I really don't understand... 320 DPI and still 5*6 icons on app drawer... I changed to 268 to test and I have a 6 icons dock so, my modifications thanks to TEXDROID_DPI work. I verified with Total Commander too, and in "system/build.prop", I see the changes for "ro.sf.lcd_density".
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] dark_ente:
Bank gapps no problem
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Arju:
I guess the GEL is modified somehow to fit more apps per row. Sorry for not being able to help but thank you for your descoveries. I usually run this rom at 280dpi so i get 5 icons on dock and 5x6 in app drawer which was the dpi I preffered. If you go too low you get more icons to the dock but i guess you just have to test and try different dpis. I guess as for the app drawer there is not much to do. (Maybe see if you can find the app drawer from a stock rom and install it on slimkat to get the app drawer icons to work as you want?.. just a suggestion. Not sure if it'll work though.)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] niano_ys:
Thanks for your help. I decided to go back to 280, like you. I hope one day to have littler icons :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Serris:
Any problem using pa_gapps instead of slim?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
No we won't replace the lib. We might include the commit but first we need to test. Thanks for the link.

The problem isn't with GEL it's Google Now. Go to apps Settings and force close Gnow hit home and GEL is fixed.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] niano_ys:
Hi, that's totally right, after stop and clear cache of google search, I have:

318 DPI = 4 col * 5 row

320 DPI = 4 col * 5 row

280 DPI = 5 col * 6 row

Thanks for your help.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] hiz99:
Can anyone give me the email apk.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] stuiegreen:
Is this stable to run as a daily yet? coming from slimbean which is perfect, im happy with the odd bug or reboot here or there just dont want total down time

Assuming this is ok to try nandroid wipe and flash img gapps and supersu 1.65, and if so can i return to nandroid if problems arise?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
I have slim 268 dpi and 5 rows
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] qu3becker:
Yes. It's stable. It just doesn't have all feature you come to expect from the Slim Team's stable releases.

You don't need to flash SuperSU except if it's your favorite super user app but Koush' superuser app is integrated and you need to activate it in the developer options.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] stuiegreen:
Can a nandroid backup be restored ok if needed?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] playya:
Stability and daily driver questions to me rely on your personal taste. I see some people that cant survive without a 2g toggle and others that need bluetooth or else the rom is unusable to them. Best bet nandroid try it out and make your own decision. I have flashed 4 kitkat roms and this one is by far my favorite and everything I need is available and working.

Nice rom guys!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] niano_ys:
Oh ??? How did you do that ? Did you change something ? 5 rows on GEL, right ? SlimKat kernel ?

EDIT: in app drawer, right ?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] qu3becker:
Yes, of course. That's what they do. Just don't forget to update your recovery.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] stuiegreen:
Running 6.0.4.3 is that the latest?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
I fc gnow lol that's it's and ya on GEL home and app drawer
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] niano_ys:
Well, I FC Google Search, it's Google now, right ? 268 DPI, I still have 5 col and 6 rows in app drawer...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] qu3becker:
Yes.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Mercado_Negro:
As far as I know, the latest bootloader and radio don't play nice with 4.3 ROMs so a Nandroid of a 4.3 system won't probably work fine. On the other hand, the latest bootloader and radio are recommended in SlimKat. I used to have a Nandroid of build 2 stable but I deleted it because I flashed KitKat's radio and bootloader, and it didn't work properly when I restored it a couple of days ago.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] playya:
Just as an fyi - for those on the fence I have 4.2 bootloader and have never had an issue running any rom 4.2 - 4.4. I also am running the .27/84 Hybrid and all works well. So not saying not to use new bootloader but as stated above its recommended but not required. Again I have no issues with older Bootloader and radio just to clarify for others unsure.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] vroomr:
I noticed on the nexus 5 port that LTE is an option in network mode. Is it possible to bring that part over so we don't have to manually enable it?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Limewirelord:
God yes, that would be so nice. Going into the dialer to reenable it gets to be such an inconvenience whenever I need to do a reboot.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
Ya but don't report any problems related, to radio, sensors, gps on this set up ;).

No Nexus 4 is NOT tagged as LTE device by FCC and w/e name for each country. Those of you that want to use can flash the required changes.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] playya:
Never have and would never do that anyways. I see more issue with people upgrading than people staying status quo anyways.... part of the reason I stayed old school with my stuff... I got you though but radio, sensors and gps all work lovely...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] stuiegreen:
Ive flashed this and it works well howevet enabling art causes all sorts of issues I'm running bootloader makoz20i and .84 baseband could that be the cause?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Mercado_Negro:
Not likely. Which GApps package did you flash? Currently, Slim GApps aren't compatible with ART.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] stuiegreen:
Thatl be the pack yes that answers that question, is the recommendation to update the boot loader and radio or does the possible risks out weight the pros this early
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Mercado_Negro:
It's up to you but if I were you I'd update both to have a fully compatible set up.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] abjexstallion:
I don't know of it'll work for ya, but with Tibu for the last 4 years i restore only the green colored system files, and now with kitkat, it brings up my LTE settings as well. You could try if you want.

Edit: First, you have to set your apns accordingly, plus dialing your *#*#info#*#* and change your wcdma preffered to lte/gsm...

After all... It's a NEXUS!!!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] XsceneXhippieX:
I'm on the latest slimkat using art with the huge full package paranoid android gapps, some silly force closes happen on boot but it's running quite nicely, I'm impressed
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] hmillos:
Is there any way for centering app drawer short cut?

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Lupin The Third:
Hmmm... Did you try moving it to the center? :confused:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] nixie2121:
mine is also like this.. hate it!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] hmillos:
That was the first thing I tried, but it's impossible since it's GEL

Changed dpi to 280 and now it's fine. I hope it doesn't cause troubles later.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] stuiegreen:
Flashed .97 radio which broke my WiFi havnt done the bootloader yet but seems like everythings broken
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] android88:
woah I'm away for a day and look how much I missed lol

haven't upgraded yet to the .97, but can somebody else confirm this?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ackbarthegreat:
I'm on the latest alpha with .97 and matching bootloader. All radios/sensors working fine.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] H-Body:
Same here :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] urinsane:
Another happy customer here... All working with latest everything.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] djsubterrain:
I flashed the 4.4 official release, then flashed the latest alpha, all working nicely here, I did have to change my dpi to fix the 5/6 icon dock though but I'm happy with that for the moment if it means I get to keep the GEL
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] stuiegreen:
Should I risk flashing bootloader too will that fix the WiFi issues
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Kurre:
AFAIK, .97 radio just needs 4.4 blobs. So it's working just fine with the latest alpha..at least for me and I haven't even flashed the new bootloader either (was it really a new one?)

Btw, I just saw many nice commits on git..nice ones, [MENTION=4790322]kufikugel[/MENTION] ;)

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Mercado_Negro:
Yes, I would flash the bootloader as well. By the way, which alpha build did you flash? 1104?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] stuiegreen:
Wiped dalvik and cache rebooted no connection turned Bluetooth on it connected rebooted it reconnected fine, not sure what went on there but problem sorted
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Mercado_Negro:
Ooh, that's nice :D I'm still trying to understand how to see the latest commits in Github :(

[EDIT] Finally figured it out :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Roastmeat:
Just to make sure

The latest alpha has the latest binaries included?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] deltatux:
Looks like Google just pushed a bugfix just right now. Hopefully it gets merged to SlimROM's next Alpha soon :).

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] arief347:
yeaah can't wait for next alpha and new feature :D
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] deltatux:
Hey guys,

Just wondering, have you guys been experiencing any audio skips with the SlimROM 4.4 alpha 1.2? Like whenever my device's screen is off, with music playback, the audio keeps skipping from time to time. Trying to root out the problem, problem never existed with Jelly Bean...

deltatux
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] kufikugel:
we are currently compiling 1.3 alpha

like Kurre mentioned a lot new nice stuff....as well a lot under the hood and nitpick fixes to have the new and old features more stable then they were already

@ new source...yes google pushed 3 hours ago a new tag....we will test them. So not in comming alpha in some hours

as well kernel source was released ..... yeaaaaaaaah

stay tuned

kufi
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] justthefacts:
Just another kk bug. it's present in all roms
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] dark_ente:
F5...F5...F5...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] deltatux:
So I'm guessing the 1.3 alpha won't include KRT16S? To be honest, I don't think anyone really knows what's included in this commit, Google hasn't said anything about what they changed in this build... It's odd that only the older devices got this build as the Nexus 5 is still officially stuck on KRT16M.

Damn it, but I just tweaked my custom kernel, changed to a different CPU governor and modified the read_ahead_buffer, so far so good.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] deltatux:
Just in time, I literally hit F5 and just saw this :D! Will flash as soon as I get the chance =)!

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] happiboi:
small request: Are we adding sha1 value to the d/l page on slimroms or in OP?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Kurre:
I'm not a dev, but I'd assume that they aren't including pre-built stuff without sources/commits (at least that post doesn't give those ones..)

Edit: spoke too soon.. :p

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] kufikugel:
dalvik optimizations are already included since alpha.1

bionic needs way more testing...you remember the reboot on uninstalling apps issue we and a lot other roms had on 4.3? that was bionic related.....so we will test this time for sure better :p
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] arief347:

Ok, Josue... It's your time to show off some skillz of yours :D

I might be late but what's the deal with this?? Thanks
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] BLADESMAN1889:
Thanks for another build devs.

Right, this is for the benefit of nervous flashers who may otherwise be asking:

Q) I am on previous build release 17/11 do I need to wipe because of the new gapps ?

A) No ! I just downloaded the new gapps & build 20/11 & dirty flashed over above ^^^

Again I flashed Semaphore 1.7.6 j with dePRIMAtor (only for Touch Control app)

All is good :)

Hopefully this will help.

Clear app data for google search
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
Already started but 3 am so need to call it.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Arju:
I still have the issue of icons on dock reverting to 6 icons. When i force close google search it fixes the problem but when i reboot my phone, it reverts back to 6 ioons instead of 5. Is this happining to everyone else? is fore closing just a temporal solution?

btw, I'm on the latest build. The way i fixed it was to change dpi to 277dpi and it doesn't get messed up upon reboot.

Oh well, righty tighty toe.. KRT6S is out and the kernel sources. I'm grateful for th devs we have for the mako. They are the best!

Are there any plans for slimpie integration or will you guys try to do something with the new Google full screen ? I can't really live without pie.

Not asking for an eta just about future plans.

And awesome job with the rom I might switch to the kk one soon :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] kufikugel:
guys......last time I will give an official statement on this:

quicksettings customiiation will come....we are currently recoding it completly from scratch. Like most of navbar and navring or the new power menu which is a unique thing

SlimPIE of course will come back.....but as well major parts will be recoded......the reason is due of changes in 4.4

Recents qustomizations are on hold for now due that we are working on a complete new recents screen....not like dumb google is doing it to open a complete new screen....more that it swipes in from the right 40% into the screen and you can really fast multitask....this will get of course as well a clear all button

TRDS same....we will push a TRDS 3.0 which has some new nifty stuff

currently we are working on the important things like lockscreen......which will be next and nearly finished...beside all the other device bring ups we need as well to do

so you see no worries....all will come but give us a bit time.....when I am not wrong 4.4 is now 3 weeks out....and as far as I can see we have already the most features most stable and as well new stuff in which was not there on 4.3

aaaand last point......we do not just pick the old stuff merge in and then it is good to go....we have a vision for 4.4....and I think some already have seen it in which direction it goes....stable decent and nice features....at least we try to get this....if we are sucessfull you guys will tell us then :D

so we go ahead but we are not magicans :p

BTW I am already on newest google souce :p
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Rohit02:

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Arju:
crackflashed between 5 roms yesterday and today I'm back on slimkat. Love the rom and it's super smooth. I currently am testing out the newest TF kernel and it works wonder. I also flashed the motox optimisation patch that is runing around here and it works great too. This rom is flying. I'm excited for next release. F5 F5 F5 F5 :silly:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] dark_ente:
Just want to share my 0.02$ with ART enabled:

there's this new Dalvik optimization from Moto X so I switched back to Dalvik and test this. Quadrant increase 20% as expected, but when I turn off the screen using scale down animation, the animation is not smooth. Switch to ART and try again, this time it's completely smooth.

So I think ART does more than just faster app load time.

Can anybody try this and report back?

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] android88:
did you enable root in developer settings?

If I had to apps and adb. First I tried to root the ROM itself, and how it did not work SuperSU of Chainfire installed.

And neither works.

Enviado desde la muerte a través de un Nexus4
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Arju:
you don't need to install SuperSu.zip to gain root as root is implemented in the rom itself. See if you're able to reflash rom without installing SuperSu.zip and go to developer option>root access> and change it to apps and adb.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] MementoMoriM:
Again.

First stop work on the root of their own ROM, and dialed for apps and adb. How not work got the SuperSU of Chainfire and neither. Not with the Root and ROM itself, nor that of Chainfire works.

I assumed you used an eglish translator. I don't really understand how I can help you or what exact your question is.

Go to Advanced option in settings and to superuser. see if the apps you have tried to give root access has root acces or have been denied. You can press the apps and push the trashbin so that it goes out of the list. make sure you have root enabled in developer option and then go to those apps that requires root and see if it works this time.

As everyone said..there's no broken root on every build...you must enable root from setting menu..go to setting-> developer option-> enable root

For open developer option you must tap build number 7x..open it from setting-> about phone -> tap 7x build number until message "now, you are developer" appeared
