How do you enable developer options in 4.4? I'd really like to try out the screen recorder
[Nexus 7 Original Development] AidenM:
I do believe you tap the build number in settings about 10 times quickly and it will let you access those options.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] O2Blevel:
That did it. I was tapping the Android Version.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] kufikugel:
new version is up guys

changelog see 2nd post OP

rotation and camera will get finally fixed when google hopefully soon decides to release the 4.4 grouper blobs...if not I will hack around for you.

the launcher keyboard popup we cannot do anything...this is a bug on googles closed sourced new launcher lol. Lets hope they will update it as well soon. You can use nova instead which is in our builds as well

have fun and cheers
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Dionysus2389:
Great work guys! Are Slim features included in this build? Oh why the hell i'm asking for them? Downloading and testing :D

EDIT: just updated (wipe cache and dalvik, flash rom and supersu.zip) and rotation doesn't work (or at least the tile in quick settings menu doesn't allow me to set rotation mode). Neither camera is working :|

Hmm, never had any problem flashing a weekly. In this one I didn't have notifications and tiles remained empty.

I missed some settings like quick pulldown for tiles as well.

I think that this function is ignored or left out by the developer.

Is there any benefit to flashing the lastest SuperSU when using SlimKat 3.6? I'm new to SlimRom and everything is working great, the built in superuser app seems to be working fine. Just not sure if not having SuperSU could be a problem down the line.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ryanrudolf:
i flashed the latest supersu update.zip, works fine
[Nexus 7 Original Development] adomol:
Did the built in superuser app not function for you?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ryanrudolf:
i cant find builtin superuser app. also when i tried terminal emulator and do su, i don't get root access, that's why i flashed supersu

im on slimkat 3.6 f2fs
[Nexus 7 Original Development] adomol:
It's in Settings>Developer Options>Root Access... I choose apps and adb. But you can choose apps alone if you want.

FYI if you didn't turn on developer options... just go to Settings>About Tablet... then tap on Build Number about 8 times to enable. It'll let you know.

Also, in Settings>Advanced Options, you can see the apps that are managed by superuser.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ryanrudolf:
That's weird, it was already set to apps and adb, but when i tried terminal emulator to su, it did not prompt and did not get root rights. Flashing supersu and root works now. I'll stick to supersu method for now
[Nexus 7 Original Development] adomol:
Which terminal emulator are you using? I want to give it a try. If it doesn't work for me as well, I'll just go with trusty SuperSU.

Hey,

I know it has been asked before, but is there a way to get the navigation bar to the right hand side in landscape mode? A third party app maybe? The softkeys are terrible to reach this way. I already tried to use phab7 with xposed to enable phone mode, however it does not really work.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

[Nexus 7 Original Development] coolek33:
Why not to try slimpie? It's more comfortable.

I would use slimpie if I could enable it for landscape mode only. But either I'm blind, or that option is not available :(

Hey guys, I no longer have a grouper and a user is complaining that their multi-user accounts are missing from the lockscreen.

Is this the case for any of you as well?

Flo and Manta (2013 N7 and N10) I do have and it's fine...so I can't see why it wouldn't be for you as well.

Just want to verify before I do further debugging.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] lotherius:
Just for a test, I set up a second user (Restricted User, not an additional login) and my lock screen does show both profiles correctly. I'm using pattern lock on the main profile and slide lock on the second, seems to work just fine switching between them.

Guys, I can confirm this behaviour for a new user (and not the restricted profile)

I have changed the DPI to 220 texdroider_dpi app (if that could cause the option to disappear)

And yeah, i am with 4.8 weekly

EDIT: I can confirm that editing the DPI to stock (216 or 220 dpi) will hide the option to choose the account

Just in case if you dont use ART, then there is "HKTheme Manager" Xposed module which you can use. It is compatible with most of the t-mobile theme chooser themes. I use the 'Flats' by [MENTION=4106867]rayford85[/MENTION]

Just installed the build 4 on my 2 years old grouper and it works great. Another awesome job from slim team.

Only a few small issues. When I go to app drawer of move launcher and hit the home button, it takes 4-5 secs to get me to the home screen but if I hit the back button it goes back instantly. Home button always works with a somehow frustrating delay, task switcher button is the same too, takes 4-5 secs to open the task switcher. Anybody else with the same issues? Any fixes? I changed the kernel to m-kernel and lean kernel but didn't help. I'm back to stock kernel of the ROM.

also what is the stock dpi and how can i change it? Found no option in the settings.

And I can't require root access for GMD gesture control. I tried both default root and chain fire superSU app. Any suggestions?

Thanks

I run on stock kernel and use KK launcher with no problems.

Stock DPI is 216ppi I think and can be changed with the app Root browser.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Natakranta:
You may consider as well All F2FS version of SlimKat, link to the thread in my signature. You would need special recovery, twrp by [MENTION=2743057]legolas93[/MENTION], to format system, data and cache partitions in F2FS format. F2FS SlimKat up to 4.8 is available to download from the thread. Going up you'd need to use developer's app from play store (1$) which converts any regular ext4 ROM (like official Slim) into F2FS ROM (adding his karnel).
[Nexus 7 Original Development] FormeriPhoney:
What the benefit of F2FS? Like I said, this will be used primarily for my 2 year old to watch movies and play games. Don't care for it for anything else
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Natakranta:
It's a file system designed by Samsung specially for flash memory, hence the name: Flash Friendly File System.

It's bit faster than standard ext4, and let's face it the old N7 is not a speed demon (or I'm spoiled too much by my N5) so anything that improves it's responsiveness is good and worth considering.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] FormeriPhoney:
Thanks man. I'll tell you, I bought my sister an OG N7 from Groupon, I updated to the OTA 4.4.2. Turn animations off in developer options and it's pretty snappy. Not hating it at all
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Natakranta:
What is OG? Original?

My wife's one is a year and a half old. It may be one of those sensitive to chip/memory degradation. I read some time ago Asus put low quality components as it had to be cheep and that some of devices, especially 32GB versions I have, are getting slower with time. Mine got so unresponsive I wanted to throw it into a wall sometimes. Now it is acceptable, at least my wife doesn't complain. Maybe because the only other android she has to compare is her GNex. Strange thing is that when a year ago I was playing Bard's Tale (brilliant game with every penny) it was significantly faster on N7 them on Galaxy Nexus, especially during fights with many opponents. GNex was choking and OG N7 was handling it good. Now it feels like GNex is decently responsive, but N7 is so laggy. But it can be just my device.

Make a nandroid of stock rooted KitKat and flash official SlimKat to compare. I'm not sure if it will be much faster, but I'm sure it will give you nice customisation options :)

F2FS is more hassle as you need to format system, cache and data (including data/media) so total wipe, you need to save nandroid a and titanium backups to PC.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] coolek33:
Add expanded desktop to global menu in navigation settings, or immersive mode shortcut from slim shortcuts to desktop. Or check Nova launcher settings if you don't have hide status bar gesture set.

I'm having a problem with Talkback. When I suspend it and then reactivate it, it's broken. I can still explore (touch things) but can't activate anything anymore (doubletab). Also all circlemenus of talkback don't work anymore, they popup but when I click the little circle in the middle, nothing happens. All I can do, to fix this, is restart the device by holding down the powerbutton.

Works on stock and I think it worked on a much earlier build of slim as well.

First of like to thank the devs for this excellent build. I purchased a n7 for my son on Swappa for $80 (32gb). It was on JB rooted and unlocked. Updated to twrp and flashed the latest stable and is running great. Very snappy. Just had a question. I had purchased Francos app, if I flash the latest kernel can I get the Color control to work? I know this screen is no where near my 2013 N7, but if I could use a profile to help enhance the colors that would be great.

You mean in landscape right? It's a feature.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] onefish:
I hadn't tried it in portrait but just did, yes in landscape only the buttons are reversed. Hmm, I think I understand what they are trying to achieve with this feature. Not sure it's actually a good idea though, kind of needlessly complicates the user experience a bit. Anyway it is very minor and I'm already used to it.

Cheers!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] kmcrane:
