The toolchain won't solve the lockscreen lag.

It's also not that big of an issue, just annoying, all it is is a slight hesitation in the unlock animation (swipe up), that's all there is, or to be more precise, a hesitation within the first second after the screen turns on, cause if you disable the lockscreen, it will happen in whatever app appears within the first second, once, and then it's good, and not everytime you switch the screen on either.

Never meant to suggest it would - I've never seen the lag, even on your builds.

I must be one of the lucky ones
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Yank555:
It's a bloody sneaky one, many times we thought we fixed it for it to just come sneaking back ;)

It's triggered by other stuff, as such you may just use your device in a way it's not triggered... me it just started with the update of gapps, somewhen in mid July... it's been better and worse over time ... lately I've been more lucky, but can't say it's totally gone :(

Wrong thread ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
Could be gapps was the key. I know there was discussion on it a while back. I'm still using a nano package from May I think it was.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] panni:
Lockscreen lag is completely gone. It was still there after updating to yank555's 0.6.

Disabled Amplify - no lag whatsoever, bleeding edge gapps. I guess I'll have to check my settings there :)

I have a flashing red border in Chrome beta when I open the app; I believe someone mentioned this on the OPO forums too. Does anyone else experience this?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] TJKV:
Sounds like one of those GPU/render related options in Developer Settings to me. Have a look there maybe?

Edit: apparently it's a chrome beta bug. Switch to stable I guess...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] panni:
Not really. It came back after a few hours. Trying other builds now I guess.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] treehugger38294:
It occurs in chrome too; I guess I'll switch to a different browser.

I have encountered a bug where the home button will sometimes not respond to input. It will register the touch but not take me home. I'll have to touch it again.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] preusstang:
Every now and then my location quick toggle disappears. I have to go into settings once and then the toggle reappears. Maybe its location of the toggle itself (middle 2nd row). Idk. Strange though.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] coolek33:
For me it was always dissappearing on lockscreen.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Yank555:
That is intended behaviour, some tiles shouldn't show on lockscreen.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NHNXDA:
Its ironic as I also see the location tile disappear for no reason at all.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Yank555:
You mean on lockscreen ? I can't tell you which tiles get hidden on locked state exactly, never cared to look, but location would make perfect sense since you can set it to upload personal data (seen WiFi networks and your current position) to Google servers.

I'd rather decide to enable that, not have someone pranking me on to it ;)

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] BannaNN:
If he is referring to location tile disappearing on lockscreen it is normal. I'm on stock lollipop and this the normal behaviour.

I have a question regarding updating Apps.

Does everyone update the apps when they get notified?

Do updating apps cause issues (i.e. GPS not working, getting "Google Play Services has stopped working")

my phone has been running great until recently. i'm getting the google play services error and my GPS is not working any more. I'm trying to pinpoint what i did.

Thanks for any help!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NovaSlim:
I update gapps and other apps as soon as I get notified, and have not been getting any errors on my Nexus 5 & 7.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Yeah, I like updates :) Play services error may appear from time to time, but reboot usually fixes it. GPS works like a charm.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] brucebond:
i cleared google play services cache and rebooted. seemed to have fixed both issues.

what does clearing the cache do?

Good news indeed!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Chitown021:
I tried the Android Pay apk but I guess it checks for root access and won't work. I hope someone releases a modified version of the app that might work with custom roms.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] treehugger38294:
I have only two issues with the ROM; other than that it's perfect. Sometimes, if I press the home button, nothing happens and I have to tap it again to go home. Also, I experience Google Play Services crashes with the phone saying "Google Play Services has stopped working". It doesn't cause any problems but the prompt every few hours is annoying.

EDIT: I'm using the 9/10 Slim Mini Gapps package.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] efan3719:
have you done a clean flash to see if those Google Play Services crashes keep happening? if they do i'm sure [MENTION=1277872]dankoman[/MENTION] would love a log cat posted in the gapps thread. The home button thing isn't happening on my device, but that does sound really familiar. a log cat for that probably wouldnt hurt either.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Have you tried disabling root access in developer settings?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Chitown021:
I've tried that. I unchecked Enable SuperSU in the options but I still get the same error.

I'm using ezio's latest build. Whenever I try to add a credit card to Android pay it stops at the screen right after I agree to the terms. The message days something about not being able to verify that the software I'm using is Android compatible.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
No, I mean Settings -> Developer options -> Root access -> Disabled
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Chitown021:
No go. I tried turning both off, root access in the developers options and SuperSU and I still get the same error
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
Bummer :(
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Chitown021:
Not that big of a deal. I wouldn't mind giving it a try but Android pay is not something I'd use on a regular basis. Maybe someone that's much smarter than I am will find a way g to modify the app so it doesn't check the Android version.

The benefits of a custom rom like SlimLP way outweigh a feature like Android pay IMHO
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dcro95:

Oh wow it's been a while. Hi guys! :)

I'm still on RobbieL 5.0.2 (OMG it feels like ages) and I was wondering if I HAVE TO do a clean flash before going to, say, ezio84's latest beta.

I don't have much time on hand right now, so I'm willing to take the risk if it's reasonable. I can manage to find the time do a clean flash, but I'd prefer not to at the moment. Suggestions? :) thank you very much, in advance! ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
5.0 to 5.1 would suggest clean
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] coolek33:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] clementinox:
I'm looking into it. It seems one of the recent commits might be causing the reboots.

Will update when I fix it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NHNXDA:
I've backdated for now, which of course brings back lag, but its better than the reboots :)

Look forward to updates, TIA.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] TJKV:
+1 for Permissions!

I guess just the basics needed by serial rom flashers; root access, File/folder creation/deletion, select multiple files/folders to copy/cut/paste, change perms, maybe calculate md5/sha1 for files. One could argue for basic text file editing too but I don't know how much effort that would involve to implement :P

I do see that you already have most of what I listed, but I listed them anyway because it's easier for me to think of suggestions that way :)

Basically I would say more advanced features can be left to the popular file explorers available in the Play Store (ES, Solid etc). That's just my opinion of course :)

Oh by the way [MENTION=4527723]gmillz[/MENTION], would you be able to look at SlimRecents' home button behaviour? Right now if SlimRecents is open, the home button will only close it, not take us to the launcher homescreen. I think it is supposed to do both with one press of home?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] killer618:
Can you add a "Kill all" button to Slimrecents?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] TJKV:
Just pinch inwards (zoom out like gesture) vertically on the recents panel, until it turns red.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] killer618:
Oh, I didn't know that. Thanks! :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] killer618:
When are you gonna add the Real dark slim theme? I really liked it back to slimkat.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] fraz14:
You can choose a slim build with layer and then choose a black theme:D
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] killer618:
I don't understand that... Why are there so many builds?

Is the official release going to be with several builds too?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Yank555:
Slim is a community ROM and encourages everyone to build himself, and who knows, also contribute to the project. As a dev friendly environment, some of the builder upload their builds for others to use.

Official build is always one, as it's pure from Slim source, but atm jenkins isn't up yet, so no weeklies.

As such, best bet is to use one of the bc ROMs, many of which are rather close to stock.

I build mine stock & layers & a few features which are in the pipeline (gerrit) which will go into Slim sooner or later.

Others add more features, others also only do plain Slim plus layers etc.

Choose to your liking ;)

Thanks for your reply.

Is your version for N5 too?

Who is jenkins? [emoji14]

What are the bc roms?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] clementinox:
Jenkins is simply a server that builds the rom. Makes it easier for devs to build for multiple devices at once.

Bc roms is for Builders Collective roms which you can find here.

That's where you can find all the different flavors of slim for different devices as well.

Where can I find the source of these bc roms? I mean, the pure slimlp rom that is used in order to create a bc rom.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] efan3719:
the builds are made from Slim's source. they dont just modify a stock build. they are built from the source code, sometimes with stuff added or removed. merged code can be found here https://review.slimroms.org/#/q/status:merged. some people pick from the open code as well, and that can be found here https://review.slimroms.org/#/q/status:open. what each individual chooses to do to that code varies between builders. you'd have to head over to that thread to see what people are doing.

Flash Rom->SU->kernel->Gapps?

Layers are supported by some roms of the builder's collective, not all.

The only thing when flashing is that gapps must be flashed after the rom and su after the kernel

My builds have had layers pretty much since the beginng, as I use layers myself ;)

I always flash ROM -> Gapps -> SU (kernel I stick with mine = built in = slim stock kernel as of recently)

JP.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] gmillz:
Why do you flash su?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JaylanPHNX:
Because the Layers Manager app doesn't work properly with superuser. Some people can't get layers to apply without SuperSU.

I pushed a fix to layers for that. I guess they haven't released a new build with it.

So slightly off-topic (but not really):

How many of you hanging onto your Nexus 5 2013 for another year?

I sure am, Between the butt-ugly and oversized N6P and the slightly-better-looking-but-not-by-much N5X with it's kinda underwhelming 808 and 16/32GB storage, I decided my N5 is more than good enough for another year, no point splurging on a three steps forward but two steps back model. Plus I definitely wouldn't use a fingerprint sensor, especially if it's on the back of the phone!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] efan3719:
well my N5 is more or less non functional so i'll be getting a new phone for sure. just waiting for the official announcement and prices before i decide between the Nexii and the Moto X Pure Edition. i dont have any problem with the 808. still better than the 800 and doesn't roast like the 810. the 820 is rumored to be the next coming of Jesus but there's always going to be a better chip down the line. no sense in waiting. as far as the designs go, i don't mind the look of the Nexus 5X. and the Nexus 6P is fine too i guess. not really going to be looking at the back of the phone much. just gimme a black rectangle and i'm good. fingerprint reader will be nice addition but it's not a deal breaker for me. probably wouldnt use it often if ever. but the placement on the back of the phone i think is better than having a big doofy button on the front like Samsung and One Plus. i've managed just fine with 32 GB on the Nexus 5 so if that's the highest the Nexus 5X offers i can do it again. maybe if the Nexus 6P isnt too crazy expensive i'll go for that with the higher rumored storage options.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Fastrite:
Yeah, been think about this too, although I would be happy with the the FP reader on the back. The n5x doesn't seem like much of a step forward not to mention it seems like a step backwards having a 2 core (high speed) + 4 core (low speed) processor, not really a "true" hexacore processor imho.

n6p does look odd and think its too big and possibly too expensive...
