I think I figured out my DPI question but for some reason the DPI change apps don't seem to be working. Usually I use dpidroider. I've granted it SU permissions but the changes I enter don't take on reboot.

Disregard above, I'm an idiot. Didn't realize DPI change was now baked into the options! Awesome!

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Alex240188:
Think it could have something to do with the sound libs that the V4A zips flash.

just experimenting a bit now.

trying a complete clean slate and just installed slim & gapps. (Visualisation working)

flashed my normal accompanying zips (elementalX, V4Astereospeaker & nexusVolumeMod) and visualisation is gone.

I'm just narrowing the culprit now
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] RobbieL811:
Ah! Yeah. It's not gonna work I don't think w/ V4A. Someone in fusionjack's thread had a problem w/ the AudioFX tile not working when they were using V4A. I'm pretty sure that's your problem. Also, everyone else, I have added the switch to be able to turn lockscreen visualizer on or off. I will post another build with it later.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Alex240188:
I can confirm its the V4A zips that are causing the problems.

I'm also happy to say that I have gone through and compared the files in the zips and have managed to;

Remove AudioFX

Install V4A

Apply the stereo sound mod

And still have the Visualisation working

I'll upload a zip for anyone who is interested shortly once i have confirmed its all running nice
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] RobbieL811:
Yeah? So you have V4A installed, and also the visualizer stuff is working? What did you do? Edited the V4A zip?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Alex240188:
yep. looks like 2.3.4.0 is working out of the box in super audio quality.

but seems like a simple mixer_paths.conf edit to get the stereo sound working.

just going to re-install Poweramp to make sure that is working with it
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] RobbieL811:
Ok. If you get it working fully, send me the zip so I can host it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Alex240188:
ah still some work to do,Play Music works with V4A & visualisation works

but poweramp will not run with V4A or visualisation

will look further tomorrow

quick question Robbie, what system files contain the visualisation data.

I'd like to have a look at them while I'm at it

Problem after last Build 1.05

Hi @ all,

i have a little Problem after flashing last LP 1.05.

I wiped cache and dalvik cache with twrp and then installed lastest .zip SlimLP 1.05 always using last twrp version (Multirom)

Now the phone doesnt boot anymore.

In TWRP it shows me following error: Could not mount /data and unable to find crypto footer.

Someone could help me to get back my data partition without loosing all the data.

Verry Verry Thank you.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ranasrule:
im talking about any camera app...same issue
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Jax Teller:
I had this problem on my flo with Purity and Franco kernel.

When I went back to stock kernel and even when I flashed EX kernel the problem was gone.

It's something related to the kernel.

What kernel do you use?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Alex240188:
Wow, finally noticing how hacky these V4A zips are. I thought it was the lollipop updates that had broken compatibility with AirAudio but it turns out it was actually the V4A zips

I have tracked the single issue that prevents V4A working with apps other than play store down to the AudioPolicy Deep buffer.

Removing this has now got V4A working within all apps that I have tried (Play Music, Poweramp, TuneIn Radio)

The Visualisation now also works with poweramp.

The minimal edits I have made also now leave compatibility for AirAudio which should hopefully mean that it also fixes the Chromecast Issues which have been an issue for V4A users (however I cannot test this as i do not have a chromecast)

I will just finish off and throw together a couple of Zips (1 for normal V4A & 1 for Stereo Sound)

EDIT: OK so for anyone who would like to try them, here are the V4A zips which I have put together.

Explanation of the process

The zip will remove AudioFX from your Phone

It will then Push over the V4A apk to /system/priv-app/ViPER4Android_FX_A4.x

The libv4a_fx_ics.so will be copied to /system/lib/soundfx

The modified audio_policy.conf will be copied

The Modified mixer_paths.xml will be copied (stereotest only)

vipertweaks.sh is used one time only to add the relevent lines to the build.prop (I don't think these are necessary for the Nexus5 but they are for other phones, I had applied them anyway so I will leave them in)

build.prop
lpa.decode=false
lpa.releaselock=false
lpa.use-stagefright=false
tunnel.decode=false

the audio_policy is the same as stock SlimLP except the removal of a single entry

deep_buffer {
sampling_rates 8000|11025|12000|16000|22050|24000|32000|44100|48000
channel_masks AUDIO_CHANNEL_OUT_STEREO
formats AUDIO_FORMAT_PCM_16_BIT
devices AUDIO_DEVICE_OUT_SPEAKER|AUDIO_DEVICE_OUT_EARPIECE|AUDIO_DEVICE_OUT_WIRED_HEADSET|AUDIO_DEVICE_OUT_WIRED_HEADPHONE|AUDIO_DEVICE_OUT_ALL_SCO|AUDIO_DEVICE_OUT_AUX_DIGITAL
flags AUDIO_OUTPUT_FLAG_DEEP_BUFFER
}

If anyone would kindly test and let me know how you get on

REMEMBER :

you still need to disable nu-player in dev-options

and you need SELinux set to permissive

*** These zips only replace the necessary files.

*** If you have already flashed the other V4A zips from the N5 themes/apps section then the damage is already done and this zip will not fix it

*** You need to dirty flash the rom again to restore the original libs/conf files then flash these to only modify the needed files

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Faschoda:
Awesome finding dude. With your provided zip i finally got V4A working! Much appreciated :good:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AndrasLOHF:
The zips with libs were labeled test for a reason. If anyone installs something labeled test without expecting possible issues, they might want to rethink what they re flashing. I started sharing my personal zips that were at the time only installing the apk to the system and removing conflicting equalizers.. I only added the extra libs that were provided by users in the viper thread as many people were stating that they helped compatibility. I personally had no use for them and any issues users were having was due to using players I did not use(Spotify, Poweramp, etc, etc). I only use Google Play Music and had no interest in installing and uninstalling different apps, files, etc to find issues I wasn't dealing with. Actually the only thing in the zips I added out of my own preference was the stereo mix.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Alex240188:
I didn't mean this to sound as though I was disrespecting your work [MENTION=5052420]AndrasLOHF[/MENTION].

I have been using you'r zips since updating to Lollipop as they was the only way of getting V4A to work and I greatly appreciate your contribution to the community.

I do appreciate that they are test builds and I was well aware that there could be issues using them.

I didn't really go into details which I guess I should have.

The bad/hacky comment is related specifically to what has gone on with the audio_effect.conf where all of the default android libraries which handle audio have been re-routed to use the V4A libs rather than letting the "v4a_standard_fx" hook into the android audio streams naturally.

I'm pretty sure that it is this which causes issues with several other programs

Poweramp cannot enable "Direct Volume Control" out and can no longer enable "MusicFX"

AirAudio fails to hook into system audio

Once again I am greatful for the work you have provided and in no way meant to come across as insulting.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Laggalot:
Regarding v4a now

Sooo.. I didnt really get what was wrong with the test builds and im gonna try the new ones out later today. Is there any negative aspect to them? or only changes for the better? XD
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Alex240188:
I'm not certain if there is any negative aspect to them yet.

Basically when robbie released the update which had the lockscreen visualiser, it did not work for me.

after narrowing to the point where it stopped functioning, it came from the V4A test zips which I have used for a while.

based on what Andras has just said that his zips contain suggestions provided by the other members in the topic.

(which other people use different roms & i guess there are cross device mods in there aswell)

I took to adjusting the minimum amount required for V4A to function properly in SlimLP

I believe I have found that but without further testing I cannot say for sure.

I have not observed any negative aspects

but the positives include;

Lockscreen Visualisation now works with all apps (tested with Play Music, Poweramp & Tunein Radio)

Apps which hooked into android's system audio (AirAudio, Allstream & probably many others) now function correctly and do not give unsupported device errors

My aim was purely to get the lockscreen visualisation to work however the fix for the audio hooking apps came as a surprise

Good work on straightening everything out and getting visualizer stuff to work! I'm working on getting blacklist back included into SlimLP right now. I have it working properly in my CAF branches, but I'm struggling getting it into AOSP. Hopefully I will have something cool for y'all here shortly.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] randman2011:
I had this problem a while back. I have no idea what I did to cause it, but I fixed it by fastboot flashing TWRP. That worked on my N5 as well as when it happened on my S3 d2att and a friend's Straight Talk S3 using Odin. It wasn't an issue with the partition or the data but with the bootloader or something losing the link to the correct addresses.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bbyf16:
Had a general question for everyone. I was wondering about what people do after flashing. As such, I try to flash not more than a once a month at most and the features would really have to warrant it or the bug fixes.

I generally find it a pain to reinstall all the apps that I had in the play store and then go through restoring whatsapp message backup via usb and then sms restore via titanium. Flashing takes all of 15 minutes, its the restore that takes nearly an hour. I personally wipe cache, dalvik, system, and data since clean is always better than dirty (at least in this aspect). I don't restore the whole system from a backup (maybe because its a carryover from the blackberry days where you tried to restore as little as possible, or possibly because in my mind I don't see the point in restoring from a backup as opposed to just doing a dirty flash).

Is this how everyone does it? I'm genuinely trying to see if there is a more efficient way of doing what I'm doing right now.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JaylanPHNX:
A few things that I do to help speed up the process after a clean flash: Use titanium to restore all apps w/data (except system apps, of course), use a third party launcher (Nova) so I don't have to redo screen setup, and go though my settings while titanium restores apps.

From my SlimTab Pro 8.4
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NeoXP:
When flashing an update I only wipe system, cache and dalvik. Never caused a problem.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Silentbob999:
I edited the quote. I totally agree with this. If you restore more then there is more risk to have issues like a dirty flash.

Maybe you can dirty flash next time and do like you are use to do only if you get trouble. Most people won't wipe data except when absolutely needed.
