Can someone tell me of this rom is slower then stock or it is just me ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Whistler_QD:
Thanks for the answer. I want to use TRDS in eg. settings app but I don't want to have it in google apps at the same time. That's why I decided to use unmodified ones. The instructions for dirty flashing the latest weekly mention to format /system manually prior to flashing the rom. This will require me to reflash the Gapps, correct? Is this manual format really required?

Thanks for the advice, that makes sense. If I'll format the system manually, there will be no way for the update script to back them up...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tylog:
No.

I am no friend of benchmark and whatever crap. Stock on Nexus is really good.and fast , faster then Slim? My feeling says no. But in all seriousness, it is not important what, when, how, where is slightly faster or slower.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Silentbob999:
Are you on Nova or GEL?

A collegue buy a N5 this week, I kindly ask him to wait 1 day before flashing slim so we can compare side to side and the result is wow.. slim is faster for everything..

If you just switch, be sure to wait enouph for the google framework to update itself and for the backup/restore to complete. It should not be slower.

If it is slower try clean/full wipe/reinstall again, maybe something got wrong..

No play store notifications

I'm on the latest weekly and flashed the gapps package that was posted the other day that has the updated Play Store and Google Play Services. It fixed the "designed for tablets" issue on the Play Store, but I'm still not receiving notifications for app updates. I cleared cache/data for the Play Store. Is there something else I should do or is this still a known issue?

Thanks.

Stable 5.0 is near! got some random issues with google play music, and it makes a report which asks to send it to the devs.. but I have elemental kernel so I haven't send any of these
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Silentbob999:
If you don't have the wallpaper feature in video be aware it's a system apk. If you deleted it with slimsizer then dirty flash the rom to get it back.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Jonnyredcorn:
Not that I know of...Tapatalk is great for reading and replying to posts. It really needs search implemented in a useful way.

Then something is wrong no your end...tapatalk is very fast for me. What ROM & kernel are you on? Stockslim ROM and stock kernel?

SlimROM is probably easily the fastest ROM out. They remove all the junk that is useless and slows things down. I personally use faux kernel and have it OC'd to 2.5ghz(basically making it a snapdragon 801 or whatever processor is that is an 800 but just OC'd to 2.5ghz and renamed to 901 or something along those lines..
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Not really.

You can pay them and then an automated build system creates a "customised version" for you.

However it's years behind the premium Tapatalk app and un addition they released their own app in a free variant supported by advertising.

It works okay most of the time.

At least the premium version.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] CaspaTheGhost:
I have to kill Tapatalk most times I go to use it recently, always get that security toast pop up. Prior version lagged terribly when swiping through the pages and would lock up at times also.

Its been like that since always, always something not quite right, but for what it does, there is no other.

That is Tapatalk ladies and gentlemen.

Great rom!

I've been using SlimKat as a daily driver for 3 weeks now and I must say that it's been just pleasurable experience. Everything works very smooth and very fast, battery life is great and everything is absolutely awesome. I don't even think about changing any roms since i flashed this :D ! Good job and Keep on the good work guys!

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] krazeecracker:
Does anyone else just use slim as a daily driver and not use all the features? For me I use it just like stock ROM. I don't use anything else. I.e. slimpie, etc. I just love the battery live and overall stability/smoothness of the ROM.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Arjohns:
Try going into Settings/WiFi, hit the menu button, hit Advanced, and uncheck "Scanning always available". Not saying it will fix it, but I'm not saying it won't either lmao. Can't hurt to try.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] efan3719:
I don't use slim pie all that much though I do have it setup. Many of the features are nice to have when you need them but most of the time I don't use them. Nothing against them of course. Mostly I use them the show off to my iPhone user friends. :P
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Jonnyredcorn:
I use some features like making my battery a circle with percent inside. I also use it to customize my quick settings so the ones I need are there. I also have it set so when I hold the back button down it kills the app and if I hold the home button down it Greenify's my apps. I also use the status bar theme option to make my clock center with a small am/PM.

I don't use slimpie never gave it a chance but it's probably pretty nice. I also adjusted the recent apps panel so it's smaller and doesn't take up half the screen. just play around with it and find settings that you like. none of these things will hurt battery life. I would suggest faux kernel as I seem to get great performance and battery life(although I've never seen a better kernel idle drain than with the slim kernel...I lost 1% in 10 hours.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Silentbob999:
Gallery2 is the camera/gallery , it's your choice.

Livewallpapers picker is probably the one you need

Phasebeam is 1 live wallpaper, ok

Visualization Wallpapers. Can also be the one you need.

But

I don't see why you deleting anything with slimsizer, none of those apk are eating battery if you are not using them. They are not big either + it's in system and there is plenty of space that won't be use by anything else anyway.

I can understand on an older device where the system partition cannot normally fit kitkat but I don't see what it can bring to you on N5.

Especially if at the end you want it back.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Haidary.T:
I just restored all system apps and still can't reset it. In the video you sent me, all of the wallpapers except Slim is from GEL. The one from Slim is in framework-res.apk but I still have no idea why it's not showing up when I tap "Wallpapers" after long-pressing homescreen. Maybe this is a regular behaviour? Are you using any mod like Xposed?

I've just made a clean flash of 4.8 with most recent updates slim gasps (thanks [MENTION=1277872]dankoman[/MENTION]!) And still no notifications about pending updates on Play Store. Actually none of my Slimmed devices is getting them :(

I have notifications ticked in play store settings and "do not auto up update apps".
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Silentbob999:
You are right the default_wallpaper.jpg is in framework-res.apk.

I do have Xposed but nothing that relate to this .

How did you "restore" your app (I never used Slimsizer myself)?

If you did not dirty flash the rom to get them back and put them manually then check for permission and also do an extra reboot.

If it still doesn't work I don't know what to say :P

Is it just doing it in hangouts? I never thought to try a different sms app when I had the issue. I did realize however that I've not updates my hangouts, so that very well could be the issue...

I read from somewhere that using

mka bacon

Instead of "make" will actually do the load balancing itself, which will also allow you to do other task while the rom is compiling.

Don need to care how many cores or threads your cpu have

It does not matter because that is a parameter and Linux doesn't care where you put it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Jonnyredcorn:

Purge OpenJDK and install Oracle JDK 6. Slim will not build with OpenJDK, and when you try, it fails on chromium. Took me days to figure that one out.

After purging OpenJDK, run: ls -la /etc/alternatives/java* && ls -la /etc/alternatives/jar

All should point to Oracle. If not, run: sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-6-oracle.

Then check what java version you have with:

java -version

java version "1.6.0_45"

I love slimkat and especially love the stock kernel, but I have one problem. My power button is slowly giving way and refuses to respond.

Hey guys, i noticed something which also happened when i was using Slimkat on my Galaxy S4.

often when i close an app the dialer screen pops up for like 1 second or so, then it goes back to the homescreen. Anybody else notice this? I don´t "multitask" a lot, so i usually quit the app i was using hitting the backkey as often as it takes to really leave the app. When the app closes the dialer screen pops up and then i am back on my homescreen (running Nova prime). Again: this happend also for me on my S4 but i moved to the Nexus about a week ago and this happens on the Nexus as well. I use the 4.8 weekly (the newer one) but i noticed it with earlier weeklys as well, no matter if i run Slimkat kernel or any other kernel. I fully wiped before flashing the 4.8 weekly, so this should´t be any problem regarding "old files".

I also noticed somehting else, which (again) also hapend on my S4: i use the app "Quickpic" instead of the gallery app and getting a lot of have thumbnail redraws. It´s like nearly every time i open the app the thumbnails have to be generated again. I use a cach cleaner, but even if i don´t use it, this still happens. On my S4 i thought it might be due to having pictures on my external sd card, that´s why i was buffled to see this also happens on the Nexus. Anybody else experience this with Quickpic? Not sure if it´s a Slimkat or Quickpic bug ot what else i can do to myke this stop (it´s quiet annoying to always have to wait until the thumbnails are generated).

Thanks for any answer, will provide loggs for sure, but first wanted to see if i am the only one having this issues.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Natakranta:
[MENTION=3342490]adl[/MENTION], I've never noticed dialer popping up, maybe because I hardly close my apps, just Dolphin occasionally when it gets stacked on loading a page. There's really no gain in closing apps. Let them sit in memory, system will close them when it needs to, of not they will be sitting there waiting for you to tap their icon and immediately show up instead of opening from scratch.
