I dirty flashed and my APNs are set up as they were with the protocols on IPV4. The problem isn't that my tablet is unable to use my tethered data connection. The problem is that WiFi tethering will no longer even activate on my phone. The switch in my QS no longer does anything and, when I go to tethering and portable hotspot menu, I can't check the box to turn it on and it says error under Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot and then it's grayed out.

Prior to flashing this most recent weekly, I hadn't experienced any issues with tethering.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] hooliganx:
ow maaaannn... very sad now. :(

but ok! don't know why my keyboard only doesn't work with Slim... don't know what to do.

thanks anyway.

You know, to this lurker, these annoying, snobbish, sycophantic, armchair defenders of Slim comments are just as obnoxious. (Not just you, ArmyBoy.)

I hate having to wade through pages of this back & forth in order to tease out relevant updates to pertinent matters.

Please and thank you, everyone.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] partylikeaninjastar:
At this point, I'm still wondering if anyone else has this or if I'm the only person who tethers.

This isn't the first time I've dirty flashed SlimKat on this phone, but this is the first I've lost my ability to tether on any phone with any ROM. My internet connection isn't strong enough in this office to properly restore my phone from a clean flash so that'll have to wait until this evening. In the meantime, I guess I'll restore my phone to its previous backup.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] gippy2:
I only tethered a couple of weeks ago and cant remember if Iused usb or portable wifi ..My guess is portable wifi....But just tried it after reading your post..Portable hotspot is fine but usb tethering is blacked out ...I dirty flashed .....
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] partylikeaninjastar:
I'm pretty sure USB tethering only works when you're plugged into something via USB. If portable hotspot is still working on your end, then there's something for sure wrong on mine. I'll get it sorted with a clean flash tonight and go from there. In the meantime, I'm not having any problem with bluetooth tethering and that's fast enough for what I need my tablet for while I'm away from home so there isn't a crisis.

Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] efan3719:
You generally aren't supposed to report a bug or ask for troubleshooting until you've done a clean flash though. All sorts of things can go screwy with a dirty flash, or it can do nothing at all and be perfectly fine. So that's why you'll get people saying all is fine when you're having issues. So until you clean flash troubleshooting can't begin.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dankoman:
I see. Have you tried clean flashing then? Also, if you have any third party tethering apps installed, I'd uninstall them.

One more thing, you are using stock kernel, right?

I highly doubt it's a software bug. I'm using wireless hotspot with tmo flawlessly.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] efan3719:
It does, it won't show you the weekly builds though if that's what you're wondering.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] limzm:
Hi I realised the volume keys are swapped when in landscape mode.

Is there any setting to disable that cause I can't seem to find it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] efan3719:
Nope. And you might want to try a quick search next time as this has been discussed a lot already. :thumbup:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] partylikeaninjastar:
I totally get that and plan to do so. I was just wondering if it was just me or just a weird occurance from flashing something new which isn't completely unheard of.

I work all day so I will clean flash tonight as soon as I get enough time to myself. Also, I don't have any third party tethering apps installed. I'm currently using the stock kernel. I was in ElementalX before the weekly, but decided to use stock to compare battery and performance.

I did do something extremely stupid while flashing and I'm wondering if this messed with my radios in any way. For whatever reason, I downloaded the mako version instead of the hammerhead version (out of habit from my old phone, guess). Naturally, my phone wouldn't boot when I flashed. I restored my phone, re-downloaded the file, and then finally noticed I had the wrong file because I was double checking the md5. I downloaded the proper file after that, then dirty flashed as usual.

Aside from that hiccup, the phone is running fine. I have an Internet connection and I'm able to place calls. The only problem lies in my tethering now being broke and giving me an error rather than attempting to turn on. I'm wondering if somehow flashing that mako version screwed something up despite me restoring my nandroid after the fact.

Still doing a clean install tonight for sure because now I'm noticing the tethering is broke on both my nandroids that it previously worked on (stock nandroid plus a Slim nandroid). Going to have to dig around the forums for this one now, I think. Sorry for the clutter, but at least it's not complaining about the recents. XD

ROM doesn't touch your baseband at all, only system and boot (kernel) partitions.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] partylikeaninjastar:
This fixed it from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2568410

Delete the folder data/misc/wifi then reboot.

It's connecting now. I found that quicker than I thought... Most searches for tethering are about fixing the block that came with kitkat.

Dunno how it happened, but I found a fix once I finally got enough time away from work. Thanks for all the assistance.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Riddlah:
thought i was going crazy and it wasn't part of it so i did a clean install shortly before posting. also didn't install any new apps compared to the last weekly except flashify.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] efan3719:

Any work around with distorting sound while playing songs with poweramp and google play music?

The problem still persist after several reboots and a clean install.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] BigJeff:
I have a great idea for pie. It could totally revolutionise it. The second ring could be a ring of icons, all of which are running/recent apps. Hold to the left side of the ring, it scrolls left older apps. Hold on right edge of the ring, and it scrolls to the most recent apps!!! Tell me what you think.....
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Relaxasaurus:
Install Viper4Android, open app then install its driver at Super Quality, reboot. Then delete DSPManager.apk through Settings > SlimCenter > SlimSizer. May need to reboot again but Viper should be your default EQ now.

I can confirm there is no more audio clipping at high volumes. DSP Manager just does not work well with the Nexus 5. Viper is much more tweakable anyway.

Edit- You may have to install SuperSU by Chainfire to install the driver. The built-in SU app within SlimKat doesn't always prompt when needed.

Is it normal that if i am not in an lte covered area, the connection disconnects and not automatically connect to 3g? The lte coverage in our place is very limited, so is this a network provider related issue? My network selection is lte(recommended).

After several hours of using poweramp there are still random distorting stutter sounds/ audio clippings, but lesser than before. Its still there :(

I have found SlimKat is using a nice default kernel made by themself. Nice battery and bluetooth working PROPERLY :thumbup:

might have been asked before but is there a way to make the DPI back to normal again(like stock)? I don't have really small fingers like my little brother has...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dankoman:
Not everything on xda is offered in a pretty little flashable zip package. It's not that difficult though. I'm sure you've done it before at least once:

adb reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.0-hammerhead.img
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] BRiANj64:
he must have, else his phone wouldn't have been unlocked in the first place!(except if he bought the phone unlocked second hand)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AndrasLOHF:
...and I'll go ahead and add to the OT and say that most people I see that wind up having issues with recoveries not working correctly use zips, tools, etc. instead of properly flashing through fastboot. Just my observation and opinion.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ej8989:
These worked for me:

Textroid dpi (playstore), or RootSU's flashable zip (search this thread)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Mikulec:
you can edit build.prop file (you can edit it even before flashing the rom in the zip file), the stock DPI is 480 btw.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] BRiANj64:
Will this cause any issues with the ROM itself(like graphical glitches)?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Mikulec:
No, all the apps that are altering the DPI are just changing the value in this file. I am using stock DPI without any issues.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] limzm:
Coming to xda without knowing how to use fastboot is really …

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] pac213:
I searched the thread but no clear answer to my question. On the latest weekly, is it ok to flash bionic and dalvik patches or are they included on the rom?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] shreddintyres:
From my understanding bionic patches are better off avoided and will In many cases lead to bootloops, as to the dalvik patches slim itself is optimized and if I recall correctly it was recommended earlier by a member of the slim team (my apologies I don't recall who) who warned against flashing the moto x patches ad slim is no longer compatible

1) Stupid requests for things like clear all crap.

2) How to change DPI?

3) Can I use Non-Slim Gapps?

4) Can I flash Non-Nexus 5 patches?

We're on page 754 and these four posts have made up about 80% of this thread. I've been on Slim for almost two years and I have read every post in this thread (and multiple other Slim threads before the N5 came out); but this is getting crazy. Come on people. It's one thing when it's occasional, but it really has been constant over these past few weeks/months. Over and over and over again, the same questions (sometimes even the same freakin' people!!). You're sucking the life out of XDA! I know people say "search!" all the time, and then people say "No, just spoon feed me!" but really, is searching that much harder than posting and wading through the replies in hope of an answer?! Search works just fine; don't give me crap about using the mobile app--you can use the browser on your mobile device perfectly. Searching is really easy. You click the box in the top right, put one or two words (eg: DPI, or PA Gapps, or moto x, or bionic, etc), and boom! You have multiple posts all about exactly what you're looking for! People think that doing a search just takes them randomly to a page that's two months old and doesn't help them--but that's not the case! If you actually search, you'll find what you're looking for--and a lot sooner than waiting on someone else to get back to you! And it makes life so much better for everyone else! I am so sick and tired of the non-stop repeated posts about the same thing. No wonder [MENTION=4790322]kufikugel[/MENTION] never comes here and I'm shocked [MENTION=3609932]Nebucatnetzer[/MENTION] and [MENTION=3087740]Jubakuba[/MENTION] haven't completely abandoned this thread and left it to the wolves. The only thing keeping them (and serious Slimmers like myself) here is the hope and glimmer that maybe, just maybe this development thread will be used for something developmental and productive. But that hope and glimmer is fading ever so slightly every day... Hopefully one day we will once again have a development thread that's beneficial to the ROM and the work that goes into it. But alas, today is not that day... :(

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
My little OT :) Completely agree. I've actually been coming to xda and reading since 2011. Used to be you could go to a rom thread, read for about 5 minutes and know all the current bugs and what is already being worked on so you didn't have to ask questions. I went from 2011 until 2013 without making a single post. As more people came and the communities got bigger, the dev threads slowly got filled with more and more repetitive OT junk. So, I finally made an account and started answering questions hoping to slow some threads back down so there was more useful info in them. I just wanted to be able to read and learn again. That never happened.

So it's a double edged sword. I think it's a good thing that more people are rooting, customizing and adding to the overall community. Look at all the help kufi got when the community was asked for help. :) But then on the other side the thread is filled with page after page of repetitive, useless questions....as kufi says, damned if you do...damned if you don't.

Thanks for that post. I'm following this thread and GNex one from very beginning, day by day, post by post and I must say seeing these questions on every second page is least saying annoying, more I'd say disrespectful to subscribers and even more to developers.

The basic rule is: Don't feed the troll.

As we can't prevent people from posting these kind of questions we can only ignore them. Not replying at all is the only way to make them use search and actually learn something. If the same person keeps on asking the same question due to being ignored, posts should be reported for moderating.

Replies, as full of good will as they can be (or "hit thanks" hunting), are only winding up the problem.

If someone really want to help yet another person asking about DPI, send a PM instead of posting in the thread.

Simple.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] crford:
And the incessant complaining about the noobs asking questions is just as bad. Not everyone can be a "serious Slimmer like yourself" so cut them a little slack. Is it really that difficult to not read a post that you don't find relevant? It's this elitist, unhelpful attitude that people really dislike about XDA. We're supposed to be a community of like minded people. Can't we act like it?

I am in no way an elitist or unhelpful--I often reply to people's questions and point them to the answer properly. And I agree that we're supposed to be a community and get along, but that's my problem right there! Too many people come in and act like the world revolves around them and everyone else is expected to spoon feed them exactly what they want (and [MENTION=5047159]Tylog[/MENTION] is right, it's not just this thread, but all of XDA). Are there legitimate questions and people who need help? Absolutely, and I love being able to help them out. But when there is an answer about DPI on the second to last page, and someone posts another question asking the same thing, that is not necessary or acceptable.

So am I higher or better than those who are new to Slim? Absolutely not, and I don't pretend to be. But do I expect new people to read (even if they only read the last 5-10 pages, which takes 3-5 minutes to do so) before they post? Absolutely yes. That's my point. And according to the feedback from that post, the vast majority of people in here regularly agree with that.
