[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Muvolt:
I have some performance variations with Nova launcher and the notification menu still lags (slightly) when the alarm icon is enabled. but otherwise is a great rom like every Slimrom...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gabboplano:
How did you get the "most of my apps are black"? Even with Slim GApps a lot of apps aren't themed (((yet)))
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] axelscorpion21:
Why if dpi is lower than stock, icons and all system show little icons?

on the computer works in the opposite way.. thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gabboplano:
Yep, lower dpi=everything becomes smaller
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] axelscorpion21:
and..why does this rom has different dpi than stock? do we have any advantages?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gabboplano:
More screen space I guess
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrianbravom:
I do not have many apps, and i use the minimal gapps, they are themed, also i put on dark mode apps that have.

help

Maybe im wrong, but can someone pls help me or explain me why in dialer when i write example pizza i dont get recomended numbers from pizza restaurants near me?

im asking for this:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bundys:
I haven't had a chance for a logcat yet, but one thing I noticed is that when I reneable 3g, the phone seems to check for new updates in the playstore and installs them (these updates probably showed up between the last time the phone checked the playstore on wifi and me turning on 3g). I don't know what the play store mechanism is for checking for updates, but enabling 3g seems to be one of those trigger events (which I would prefer it were not).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LibertyMonger:
WOW a bunch of screen on time, what were you doing in those 4+ hours? All the rest look quite low.

No known issues for me so far with SlimKat, Slim is always one of my favorite ROM's I usually keep as my stable build while trying others. Very happy to have good ole SlimPie back! Everything looks great and love how awesome KitKat is turning out, the best of times for Android! I knew it was gonna come together just fine proving all the Nay-sayers wrong! Lol. Thanks a bunch for the great ROM and support.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
Do you have it enabled in the phone settings?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ashtrix:
Does anyone have lag in swiping photos in gallery app ?? , Like swiping to left is not smooth :rolleyes: !!

Rest is very cool !!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] klanistok:
on my n4 i have nothing change and i have that option, but on n3 i havent that option. Can u please tell me where to enable?

BR
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hetalk:
To enable settings, open dialer. Go to settings. Turn on "enable forward lookup" and "enable reverse lookup". If you don't see these settings, you probably flashed older slim gapps or maybe some other gapps which doesnt include latest google dialer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] klanistok:
tnx for the answer im gonna check and report back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Legatus Onoris:
If this result is with the stock kernel, it's a fantastic one!

How can I change the pixel density?The icon and all the menu are quite little and I want to resize them....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hetalk:
You can manually edit build.prop file. Or you can install build.prop editor from play store and edit density to whatever you want it to be. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qu4nd:
You probably searched the thread and weren't able to figure out which of the about 10.000 results would be the best choice?!?!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrianbravom:
I used mostly whatsapp, flipboard, instagram and snapchat. I think thats look quite low because screen time/percentage is high and afect the status, i dont know haha, its hard to have same stats now.

Yes! It is.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] J__:
any other way to change DPI? I downloaded textdroider_dpi but it didn't do anything for me...?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
Simply editing the build.prop file under /system will work as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] J__:
got it working, stupid of me didn't enable root access in developers mode after install... thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kingshads:
Excellent rom
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nonoperez:
I'm new in this rom, it's awesome! Tx devs. I think I'm going to stay for a looooong time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pecia:
which kernel is the best for this rom?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] klanistok:
solved ty.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hetalk:
Stock kernel is pretty neat. I've used it with latest dirty versions and works pretty well as well. As of now, I'm running the dirty superram version.

Glad to be of help. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bamt4s:
Hi! I flashed the latest version yesterday and since then get sluggish ui performance, especially while using the playstore.

I did the following using CWM 6.0.4.4:

- wipe data

- wipe dalvik

- flash SlimKat

- flash gapps

- wipe dalvik

- reboot

After that I let the playstore reinstall my apps and I restored data of some user apps with Titanium Backup.

Did i mess up something? I flashed many custom roms in the past 18 months. Should I be doing something else "to clean up the mess"?

Thx!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Natakranta:
If you were coming from different ROM you definitely should have formatted manually system partition on top of what you have wiped. It's recommended in installation instructions. I if you were just updating from previous SlimKat weekly it shouldn't matter that much, but still, I'd recommend redownload zips, check check sums, and clean flash with manual system format in mounts menu in CWM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hetalk:
My device has always been sluggish when play store installs/updates any app.

AFAIK, most ROM installations would wipe system before installing/copying system files.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Natakranta:
Correct, but there can be some survival scripts prevailing causing some parts of old ROM being left. That's why Slim recommends in installation instructions to do manual system format on top of regular data/cache wipe and dalvik wipe.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bamt4s:
Alright, will try again and report back once I have everything going. Thx!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hetalk:
Ah! I didn't know this. I guess I need to start rtfm.

Thanks for this info. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dharmabm:
^^format /system
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Muvolt:
Yes, but it's not nearly as smooth as Mpokang v10.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hetalk:
At least it's open source. :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
That kernel violates GPL Policies and has been banned from XDA, not to mention, you apparently have not tested very many of the most recent DirtyV updates because they dance rings around Mpokang. But if all you care about are benchmarks I guess you could live in the past and use an outdated, ceased-development, banned kernel. ;)

Just sayin'.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gwindlord:
I was unable to make Dirty to behave even like stock Slim, no mention of Mpokang :) The only reason I've got back to stock is that I've got 2 night SoD's at Mpokang. Dirty seems to be not bad, but antutu shown 1000 less score, than on stock, so I've decided not to do anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Yep, I am proud to say that if we ever see some groundbreaking kernel integrations that may possibly revolutionize development for the Galaxy Nexus from DirtyV it will actually be available on the git for other developers to utilize..........
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hetalk:
I was on stock kernel for a day or so and it worked pretty neat, without any issues. :good:

I don't think too much about benchmarks. As long as I feel my phone's responsive enough and doesn't stutter/lag, it's good.

Most stock kernels wont rate high on benchmarks. That doesn't mean they're not as good.

Edit: My experience about flashing kernels. In a way, flashing kernels is a lot different than ROMs. A ROM would behave same with all users with same device. While a same kernel version would run different for different users running the same device.

Anyway, I'm done with this kernel OT. Apologies to the OP.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gwindlord:
So that's why I'm on stock now :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
This is using SmittyV RSR 2/20 with my custom settings, I did a benchmark on a hot device that did not even have time to cooldown or settle yet. SmittyV versions of DirtyV are just the initial test release before he adds the updated integrations into the next DirtyV release.

As Hetalk already posted, I too am done with the OT, sorry for hijacking the thread for a moment guys.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
No problem guys.

As long as it's not because of thousands of noobs which ask the same question over and over again

I don't have a problem with a bit OT every now and then.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Muvolt:
Interesting info...thank you for that. I don't care about benchmarks...user experience is quite different IMO (I can mostly feel that by using the drop down notification menu...with stock kernel, it stucks a bit before I pull it down and generally it has more lag - it's less responsive...I'm talking about this kind of lag: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOvQCPLkPt4)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
I didn't mean you specifically were concerned with benchmarks, that was more of a general comment seeing as most of the fanboys of that kernel tend to brag

alot

about the benchmarks. ;)

The notification shade lag has nothing to do with the kernel, that is a rom specific issue, on LiquidSmooth I had no problems with it but on CM11, Vanir and CNA the lag was very apparent. Using a specific kernel may help a bit but ultimately it is an issue that has no full remedy due to our outdated graphics drivers. (Thanks alot Texas Instruments)

I do however, have no doubt in my mind that all these amazing developers will squash the issue eventually.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pagratios:
I have tried to switch runtime to art but after restart nothing happen and I have still had dalvik.

If it is kernel issue I wiil post it to specific thread
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vivekbalan:
If you are using Xposed module, it will reset RT to Dalvik on restart.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hetalk:
I'm seeing a circle (similar to halo) when I expand pie. See attached screenshot.

Is it just me?

Is halo coming?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coolek33:
It's snap point. If you press it and hold u can redirect pie to that side.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dirtygoldfish:
Do you mean that half-circle on the left? Because that's a snap point for SlimPIE. If you hold and drag you can move your pie navigation to that side.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hetalk:
Oh damn. I was hoping for a halo. Thanks guys.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gauravraw:
Been using this since a week now and I have to say it's great; except the dpi part- everything seems too small and may hurt the eyes in long run. Was increasing the dpi a choice or necessity to port 4.4.2 on Nexus?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hetalk:
Choice. I think SlimROMs has this dpi settings, since JB (when I started using it).

BTW, you can safely change the dpi to whatever you want it to by editing build.prop file. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gauravraw:
wow, thanks! Didn't know that

Could you tell me the path to the file though and what setting will get me the default dpi which comes with Google's stock roms for Nexus, please? :fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coolek33:
Use build.prop editor from playstore. Grand root permissions for it. Change the line with dpi (320 stock for gnex if I remember right) and reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hetalk:
Open up \system\build.prop using a root explorer. Edit ro.sf.lcd_density to 320 (which I think is the default for our device).Then reboot.

Or you can download build.prop editor from play store. Edit the same key to 320, grant root priveleges, and reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gauravraw:
Thanks man! Though there isn't something with the word dpi, it's so.rf.lcd_density

Changed the setting to 320 but it's quite huge now, lol! Guess I'll have to search for the default setting
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hetalk:
Try 268, that's what I always used when on vanir. Pretty decent size. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gauravraw:
Yup, 268 is pretty decent but still somewhat smaller than the default nexus ROMs...I'll figure it out. Thanks for all the help guys!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
320 is the stock DPI.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pagratios:
Xposed and art cannot work together?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pagratios:
With art the difference is noticeable?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
I don't know how it is on maguro.

On the Nexus 5 I haven't seen much of a difference.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hetalk:
Some people sweat there's a difference. Some say it's a placebo. Try it out and join one of these 2 groups. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gauravraw:
Yea, found the same setting online but that doesn't go well with this ROM :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qu4nd:
You should try 270. After about two days, you won't even remember the difference ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
The problem for most including myself is that Google messed with something in GNL that forces a ridiculous 5x5 grid on homescreens anytime you change the dpi from stock 320 to anything lower. It's really annoying!

Sent from my Android 4.4.2 Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
Why not? Should work just fine if you're using our gapps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gauravraw:
I found a suggestion for 282 and it seems like the perfect density so far with this ROM. Try it out if you want guys

320 is just tooo big (ugly) imo
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qu4nd:
That's in fact some annoying side effect...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Yep, it sucks that I have to deal with 320dpi but there is not a single launcher that compares in my personal opinion to GNL right now. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
Depends on what you want. Nova works far better for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akash3656:
Just wanted to say thanks to the slim team for being one of the first to bring aosp KitKat on the maguro!

Just got an N5, my its a big jump. My maguro had derpy NAND else I would have kept it longer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ashtrix:
Yep, this stability and Efficiency forces me not to flash any other 4.4.2 at all ;) :good: !!!

& Congrats bro [MENTION=2548902]akash3656[/MENTION], Happy flashing with N5 :cowboy: !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akash3656:
You bet I will. The first thing I did after I saw everything was fine (20 mins) , I immediately did a fastboot oem unlock :)

Love how Nexus devices use exactly the same method to unlock/root/custom rom.

Honestly, you can't beat SlimKat unless if you want less features and more stockish ROM, then there's PA and Shiny. CM11 and omni lags terribly for me. So you're not missing out on anything haha.

/Sorry for the OT
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phaze3131:
seem like you know your stuff.

any suggestions on what overclock app to use so that it locks in and stays on the one you choose?

have had trouble with this on stock kernel so far.

thanks!

Use the minfrees in the OP as well.

If you have trouble with the frequencies sticking select "frequency lock" in the general section of Trickster Mod as a temporary solution, DirtyV should have no problems keeping the correct frequencies though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tommolo:
I can't change the DPI of the screen. I've tried using root explorer and build prop editor, but when it asks me to reboot, I tap yes but the phone stays on. If i reboot manually, the dpi won't change. what can i do?

I started the logcat a few seconds before turning off airplane mode and reenabling my 3g connection. The phone was pretty laggy for about a minute.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tommolo:
It seems like the phone does not have root access. How is that possible? I've used tons of rom before this one.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nonoperez:
Flash latest supersu with recovery. Worked for me
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pianistaPL:
As i remember, Slim default has disabled root. Simply go to developer settings and set root to "apps" or "apps and adb"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
See the post below that's the correct solution.

Oh sorry wrong thread :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kustaa:
Hey! First time on this rom :)

I'm about to set it up, but I wanted to ask this, because I noticed before. It's about Google Now Launcher...I've installed it on CM and noticed some lag, but I thought that it was matter of so many apps or whatever. Now I first booted SlimKat and noticed the lag too:

Exiting from app drawer animation shows like a hiccup, then Google Now swipe turns laggy too...its like it stutter. But, if I add a new screen to the launcher, then swiping left to google now becomes smooth again until I enter app drawer. Seems like the first use is smooth and then lags until I make some modification to the launcher/homescreens.

The way to reproduce it would be:

1- Add a new homescreen by moving an icon

2- Swipe to left (google now), you'll notice its smooth

3- Enter app drawer, and then press home. You'll notice a little hiccup on the animation

4- Swipe to left again (google now), and now the animation is laggy.

5- Add a new homescreen, and all is smooth again.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kurre:
There probably isn't much to do, since GNL is closed source app. You could try to capture logcat during that lag..If by any chance it could be related to the framework/system..But I highly doubt it.

where the build 3.2 I go to weekly and stable folder also cant found the new build??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] agritux:
just wait a little. it is started to build this morning. crespo has it. we will have it in one or two hours i think.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] agritux:
it is up. i am downloading.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nctrns:
Two questions and a bug report:

1. Can I set things up so that SlimPIE turns on automatically when I turn on Expanded Desktop?

2. How can I update the SU binary? Just flash supersu from recovery? Or should I just leave it as is?

Bug: in the stock browser, go to settings > labs > turn on quick controls. Now use the PIE-like controls to enter a url. After you hit enter, the address bar gets stuck at the top of the screen, but it's not working and doesn't react to taps. It should disappear.

Stock browser generally seems buggy with quick controls on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] axelscorpion21:
is the 3.2 version stable? how can I flash it over build 3.0?

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GamaX320:
You can just flash the supersu via recovery :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coolek33:
It's weekly. It might have bugs but not necessarily. Flash as always. Wipe cache, dalvick and system just in case.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gwindlord:
Indeed, confirm and can reproduce.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mugendon:
I am using the stable 3.0 and have a problem with the app Delayed Lock.

It is configured to use the pattern lock and switch to swipelock for the next 30 minutes. This worked fine with the 4.3 stock rom, but since slimkat the pattern lock wont go away after the first unlock.

Is there something in the rom that prevents delayed lock to work?

Does Slimkat already have an option for the desired behavior, which I might have overlooked (and yes, I need the swipelock and dont want to go without any lock during the 30 minutes :))?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
1. Nope

2. Updating the ROM is the usual way. I don't know if other options work as well.

AFAIK we only have a delay lock option.

To know if something from our side is causing your problem I would need a logcat.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mugendon:
Tried to record to logcat, but then it worked as expected. Unfortunately I dont know what changed since yesterday, if others run into that problem :/

Use the internal uninstaller (full unroot) from the SuperSu app, then better use (As for recovery u can use PhilZ touch and remove all su binaries from the menu via recovery or use busybox on rails app from market and uninstall from there ) the internal su by koush for now .. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coolek33:
Yeah. Did U even tried to flash it? Photosphere should now work on tuna devices.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mugendon:
Didnt work for me, got an error while flashing it with an up to date cwm (cleverly I didnt note it, since I thought "ok, only for 2.x then").

Is there anything you have to do before flashing photosphere?

Running great so far. Can confirm bug that CPU settings via trickster are lost after turning offand on screen.

One question. Will you bring back fast charge tile as it was on slimbean? Now I have to open trickster mod every time I want to access my files over USB or change it back to fast charge. Thanks
