[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
hey there guys, has SlimKat anything included to change DPI? or we have to do it externally?

edit: searching just read about the lower default dpi! so Im happy with it going to try this rom out!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Circaflex:
well you stated this was a CM based rom, which it isnt

you stated root isnt working, which it is

you dont flash supersu and have two superusers, it replaces the other

the one that comes with this rom does work out of the box, its lazy app developers you should be angry with

Well most of them are if most devs cherry pick? Umm.. Who do you think most Devs get there codes from? Yeah, not fully cm but don't tell me it doesn't have cm under the hood ;) maybe root works for you but not me. Yeah, I use a magnum condom does it mean it'll work for you? Last I check SuperSU was updated recently.. When was superuser ever updated? Whatever man. Not looking to argue about stupidity. I'll go back to where I came from :)

Have a good one dude
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
Wait - I'm not saying slim is lower than others, it's on par with most others. I just make everything go faster. Rom, pc, car - if I can make it faster, I do it. I'm an old, long time oc'er - why pay the extra $ when I can match performance with a cheaper item (maybe it's just cuz I'm a cheap bastard, make that frugal!).

By the way, on a computer, there is so much going on in the background that inconsistent results are to be expected. The trick is to find when you can run a benchmark to get consistent info. It's not all that easy, but can be done. Remember, numbers will only be as consistent as the method used for testing.

Oh, I caught enricos last line. I just gotta say, size makes a big big difference. But like something as trivial as a few milliseconds of home button lag, it can be overlooked when the advantages are greater.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Circaflex:
You dont want to argue because you are wrong. Root isnt working on your end because you are doing something wrong. And no Slim isnt CM under the hood, sure they might take a few cherry picks but most of slim is slims work and i guess you are just too ill-informed to understand that.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
Slim cherry picks an idea - then makes it work in the best way possible. You'll see other devs cherry pick more slim code than slim would pick other devs code.

Imho of course
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Circaflex:
exactly my point.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] luckylui:
What can you possibly do wrong trying to obtain root? That's right nothing because it should be active in the first place! I do know this superuser binary is outdated like a dinosaur. SuperSU in the other hand is up to date. So why use a outdated "root" provider? I've ran slim ROMs since I had my gnex. Not once have I had a problem. Hell I never had to funk with root cause it just started out of the box. Why doesn't carbon and purity and all the other AOSP ROMs give me problems? Oh that's right they don't. Like I said maybe it work for you kudos. Not me tho. So I'll step back for now. Have a great day good sir :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Circaflex:
if you'd bother to use the search function you would see a response from the slimteam devs why root is not enabled by default. the answers are out there just search.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
They do, but they don't use proprietary code, which this patch is, so not the same optimizations - not even close.

The patch was created for the s600 I believe it was, which is the same as this s800, except clocked lower.

Oh, I always forget to mention this, you won't notice much, if any difference in feel with the patch. If you look at the numbers (but you gotta run numbers to begin with), you'll notice cpu, ram, io, most numbers are the same. The big bump is in multi tasking. As we are moving more and more towards this on these small devices, better multi tasking performance is a plus, a big plus for some.

And ......... It doesn't hurt anything - you get no bad - only good.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] micr0g:
Thanks. Really
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
And an excellent point at that!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] james11417:
Is someone really complaining about not having root? Seriosuly? When it takes less than a minute to actual get it back? Those are the types that shouldn't be flashing in the first place.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] clj575:
For some reason they like small text...I change it when I flash the ROM to 460...stock is 480. Their pref of 370 is too small IMO for this phone.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
Ahh, ok I got ya. Misunderstanding then. I thought you had said when you benchmarked Slim that you noticed it had a considerably lower score than most others. And I agree with you too: with a consistent environment and using the same tools, benchmarks can be valid, I was just saying that my method is to not benchmark and go by feel, i.e. least number of quirks or malfunctioning components. I think both are valid ways as long as they are done consistently, just that benchmarks shouldn't be a deciding factor in choosing a rom, in my opinion. :)

And really guys....with the bickering in the thread....It's really pretty disrespectful to the dev's. They work so hard.....If it bothers just a simple user like me it must bother them at least on some level as well. Please, if you really have issues with each other it should be done by pm and not in a dev thread. True, we do all take some liberties when we users post in their thread at all, it is a dev thread...but then to argue on top of that is in my opinion going too far. The team doesn't deserve it, they just work too hard and put out to good of a product for free for those types of things to be in the thread. Either treat each other more respectfully in the thread or don't post. This is just my opinion and maybe I don't have a right to say it, but when I see something that looks more than likely to bother at least some of the team, it bothers me as well.....my three cents (3 and not 2...sort of a longer post :) )
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
Just for laughs, do like I did. Get like trickster and go into mp decision settings (you can do that now that they are using showp implementation) and disable 2 or 3 cores.

See how it feels. I was shocked!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AndrasLOHF:
You're correct as Slim seems to go more for stability and battery life. A lot of that has to do with the stock Slim kernel settings and the way the governor is calibrated. Opening the governor settings you can seeing that both the sync_freq and optimal_freq are tuned to stay at min 300mhz as much as possible as well as I believe they increased the up_threshold_multi_core setting requiring a slightly higher load before other cpu cores kick on. Most of the other kernels including the older Slim kernels also have the touch boost much much higher around 1.267 ghz for every core vs Slims settings which are 960, 960, 729, and 576 mhz and are tuned in general for higher responsiveness. I'd say the kernel has more to do with lower benchmarks than not using the MotoX patches.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] b_rangel29:
Bye Felicia!!!!!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
The low number is all stock. But I say low not compared to other roms, compared to my personal setup.

I run bricked from December, on demand, 90-98 cpu load before ramping up (98,90,90 in that order in trickster - well above slim defaults), no touch boost (disabled in governor and mp decision), down diff at 20, sampling down factor at 8. I also allow mp decision to kick in very early. I setup for battery really. As mentioned by many, feel isn't an issue, it always feels fast - running 1 core or 4.

And again - the dalvik patch doesn't do much, if anything, for how the device "feels". If you look at the specifics in say antutu, you see a good boost in multi tasking performance, little elsewhere.

There was a point early on when slims stock kernel was just as good as my go to setup. I was recommending sticking with stock, bit that changed. I'm not complaining, don't get me wrong, but I do see changes - via benchmarks - in specific areas of performance. I guess it's my fault for looking! But, that's in my genes. I did statistical process control for a while before getting into building computers 15 or so years ago. Old habits are hard to break, and I love a healthy conversation about tech stuff!

If I run on don't be afraid to tell me to stfu!

Just flashed this rom. Its great, had to go back to stock dpi though, as I dont like the small text.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Natakranta:
I'm experiencing "system.... stopped working" and it kicks me to lock screen, so I need to slide to unlock to get back to the app.

Stable 3 + Slim minimal gapps clean flash (twice, two downloads, both times check sums correct), 480dpi, running dalvik.

Only mod is Latinime.apk deleted with TiBu and installed Shafta themed Google keyboard to have swipe writing in Polish.

Three bug reports attached. One taken after Browser stopped working. The other two after system stopped working, taken on two different clean flashes. They are random, I can't find a pattern, I think mostly when internet is being used, Dolphin, Browser, Team Viewer.

I hope attached reports appears relevant. Anything I can help with, I'll do my best.

Sometimes, after long time screen is of, there is one second lag after slide to unlock, before home screen appeares, slide animation itself freezes for a moment.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] luckylui:
I've been flashing ROMs way before you've ever. Sorry but not sorry.

Ahahaha. Cyber tools. Gotta love the children
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
OK, here's the deal.

Software providers have a responsibility to put out secure code. What we do with said software is up to us - allow root access and be insecure - or not allow root access and be secure.

The devs are doing exactly what good coders should be doing.

And you lied - you didn't go back to where you came from. Honesty is the best policy.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] luckylui:
Okay? Still doesn't make sense. Why, this ROM doesn't provide me with root? Yet, all other 20 ROMs do. If I flash supersu which I did already. My root is back up. When I leave it with superuser I don't have root? How does that make sense? It doesn't. I've done three clean complete wipes with no success. So please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Since most of you seem like you know. Which I can't really understand because what you know I know. Comprende? Like I stated I've been doing this since touch pro eclair days. Its second hand to me. Nothing new. I rarely ever ask for help because I usually like to get down and dirty with this. When you activate the "dev option" my root access is already activated to apps and adb. So please enlighten me with more information. How does my root up and leave like that with this very own ROM?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
Hey fellas, just for a little community feedback on 1.3... :) Installed 1.3 ROM and gapps last night with latest beta faux and up and running today. Download went fine as did the install. No issues whatsoever there. Actually, running through the settings, so far can't see any issues anywhere. Set up my emails, etc, ran through the settings, restored my apps, and now giving feedback typing on my N5...all seems super smooth. Another solid Alpha. You guys keep pumping out good work. Thanks for the ROM and thanks for the update. Hat's off to ya. :)

Edit: Oh and pretty much the exact same for the 1.3 on the flo as well :)

Can anyone confirm:

1) Disable navigation bar

2) Reboot

3) Three dot menu button has disappeared from chrome and www links from other apps doesn't open in chrome. I don't know how system wide this is.

4) Enable navigation bar. It doesn't appear.

5) Reboot

6) Chrome works just like it supposed to and navigation bar is visible.

7) Disable navigation bar and no affect to chrome until reboot.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] patou75:
I know it's an early development but why not a new feature : TRLS (TheRealLightSlim) with settings app in light background ? :p

And guys thank you for your hard work, we really appreciate. Personally I will only use your ROM ( for now I stay stock until stable release) because your way of developing it is just perfect, not rush, code optimization etc...

Again THANKSSS

Really liking the text received pop up setting where the text shows up in a little popup box in the middle of the screen. Really unique feature and one of the best implemented features I think I've seen on a ROM to date. Loving all the nice little touches you guys have implemented in this ROM. Just keeps getting better every day! :)

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GTDarthYoda:
That's awesome!!!

I want to soooo bad!!!

I was a flashaholic with my N4!

But I had to use PAC because I was so used to a menu button. It's very different and very hard to get used to the way Nexus phone handle the menu button

Kinda forcing myself to get used to it so I'm not tied down to PAC again.

Plus I want TRDS, as soon as that's back I'll will not be able to hold myself back!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Jubakuba:
And I've been MAKING them =P

So...I can say with certainty that your root issues are your own. And not ours. SuperUser is open-source. SuperSU isn't. That's a big part of the reasoning as well. That being said...again...it being off by default is common knowledge to Slim users. And is covered in the FAQ for people who don't know. I don't get why you're so angry about being wrong here.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] coolek33:
Did you flashed a custom kernel?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DigitalUnderground:
Dude all u gotta do is turn it on in dev options. If that's too much work for u then this ROM isn't for you. Just leave.

This is my favorite and my go to ROM but this thread is full of noobs getting their first taste of slim and not having any idea what it is. People that are new to aosp or used to cm. Slimroms have used smaller DPI since forever and I personally and one that likes it that way. They are always more stable and less bugs than CM amd they have more features usually as well. They also give you a highly modified stock aosp ROM with a root option. Most people don't need root on this ROM as most of what u need root for can be accomplished. TiB is old news if u want to debloat... Just use a root file explorer. Also clear all button is gone for a reason. It goes against what android does to optimize itself on KitKat. I mean really. Your arguing is a waste of time and server space
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
Sigh...see, really if you have nothing constructive to say, don't say anything. Just end it...really. :(
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bikeryder007:
Whoa. Who knew putting the word stable in the thread title would be a bug light for rude incompetent mouthbreathers.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] beaver2233:
well then it's very interesting as to why you are the only one having issues....
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] luckylui:
Umm? I have it on. Like I said when I enabled dev option. It was already enabled by default. All I enabled was user debug notification and the screen touch. I use tib to re download my data that I need. I use root explorer and tib to debloat as I please. Also astro file to browse my files. Thank you for the input sir. DPI doesn't bother me. Thank you for trying to help. But, I already knew what you knew here.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Circaflex:
Then like we have said you are doing something wrong.

Clean flash the rom, turn on root in dev settings before using anything that needs root. you obviously are missing a step or something because it works just fine.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
Your the only 1 man. And when your the only 1 - the problem is what we used to call oie - operator induced error.

Now I did read, somewhere, that root requests are handled a little differently in kk. But it's still up to the app to make the proper request for root access. Maybe you're using an app that needs updating for this particular su.

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

And you should give me a thanx for giving you a possible out from all this bs
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Circaflex:
he is either doing something wrong and not admitting to his mistake or he is just trolling at this point
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] luckylui:
I am truly understanding what you are saying to me. True saying I've never seen this happen to me. I may just complete wipe out my phone including internal. Maybe the cause maybe not. I didn't even have to enable the root in the dev option because it was already on.. Not sure bud. I had to flash supersu for the meantime to get me around fixing my side on the issue. Other than that.. Not sure really. Thanks for the help.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
Ok, so I've been flashing this rom since the 2nd or 3rd version that came out for the N5. What I do that has worked everytime for me has been to flash the latest su binaries when I flash the rom from here http://download.chainfire.eu/382/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.93.zip Then I enable root in the built in superuser and dev options. Then I install the SuperSu app. Doing those I've never had a problem with root access on Slim. Hope you get it, it's really a good rom. :)

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ChazzMatt:
Although the devs don't recommend SuperSU, many slim users still use it. Flash the SuperSU zip in recovery, last step, after flashing everything else, before rebooting.

Now this is a step. I never done.. I will look into doing this in hopes of fixing my side of the issue. Thank you. Why doesn't the root work right out of the box? What made you go this route..

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Circaflex:
please quit saying root doesnt work out of the box, it does indeed work

you do realize this is the same as you complained before, flashing supersu and having "two superusers" so i dont know how this is different than what was recommend many posts ago to you
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] luckylui:
Again, its working for you. Not me. We ain't the same the phones aren't the same. What is hard for you to understand that? Some people seem to comprehend that but you seem to miss the point of difference in life.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Circaflex:
instead of making it a general statement like root doesnt work out of the box, change it to root isnt working on my end and ill leave you alone. you are providing false information by stating as a general thought "root doesnt work out of box"
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] luckylui:
If I have to remove superuser. Then so be it. Just have to find a way to remove that advance option with the superuser setting. Sorry OCD is a hell of a drug. ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Circaflex:
you cant, its built into the framework. just flash supersu and ignore it. dont forget to go into supersu settings and install the backup script so it will reinstall itself/stay put when upgrading slim versions if you dirty flash.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] luckylui:
Clearly the man [MENTION=2877782]droidit[/MENTION] has been flashing a su binary since he knows how long. Maybe it doesn't work out of the box for him either? Hell I don't know.
