When I have the Preferred network mode set to LTE, I get at most 1 bar at home of Tmobile signal, whether I am connected to wifi or not. When I set it to 2g, I get 5 bars of Tmobile signal, whether I am connected to wifi or not. Are you saying that the phone is just reporting its signal strength inaccurately when the preferred network mode is set to LTE? Because if there is zero difference between whether the preferred network mode is 2g or LTE when connected to Wifi, then in one of the cases the phone is lying about its Tmobile network signal. I know that when I am connected to wifi that it isn't using LTE for data. Thats the entire point. Its useless for my phone to try and maintain a connection to something that has a much worse signal when its absolutely unnecessary.

I am doing a test right now of the difference. Have the phone on wifi with the preferred network mode set to LTE. Will come back in a couple hours and see what the idle drain is per hour, being measured with a custom reference point from BBS. Then I will do the same with the preferred network mode set to 2g and compare. Maybe there really isn't any difference between the two. I want to find out.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] danarama:
It's only more superfluous if you're talking about LTE specifically. If you substitute LTE in my first post on this subject with "3G" it's the complete opposite of superfluous. 5 bars of 2G voice uses less power (substantially) than 1 bar of 3G voice

Sorry, this is probably a little off topic, but I know the community here is very knowledgeable.

I have what seems to be a ton of nlp collector wakelocks for Google services. I have about 242 wakelocks from it over the last hour and a half.

I'm on the latest slim weekly 4.8, slim kernel and the 4.6 AIO gapps. Clean flashed.

If I set location to device only, then I have none of those wakelocks, but dashclock can't update weather without it. I've got those wakelocks from setting location to battery saving, and I have strong wifi and decent network signal over the last hour and a half while these wakelocks occurred. I also have location history and location reporting off.

Any ideas besides setting location to device?

Thanks for your help and time.

On slimkat latest stable.

How to change the number of icons in the app drawer.

At 400ppi in build.prop it's 5x6, 30 icons on one screen is way too much.

I need to reduce the icons on Google launcher keeping the ppi same.

Stock 480 is a bit creepy for me.

Even at 480, it's 4x6.

I need 4x5.

Thanks in advance.

New to slimkat, and thoroughly enjoying it.

Have you looked into Itelli3g Xposed Module? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.voidvapps.intelli3g I get the same exact behavior out of T-Mobile and ditched a Tasker profile I wrote to switch to this.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] muyoso:
I'll have to try that out. Running a test right now to see if it makes a difference in idle performance, so I am not touching my phone for the next few hours. That looks almost exactly like what I am looking for. Thanks so much.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] RobbieL811:
You have an app somewhere that is using location alot and keeping the phone awake. Personally I HATE seeing NLP wakelock on my BBS. I use device only and what I did to solve the dashclock problem was I donwloaded a dashclock extension called "Better Weather". It has a mode where it will work with GPS only. It works pretty good. Maybe it will help you.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AndrasLOHF:
I know for me it helps a lot. I am in a complete 2G area with T-Mobile at home. I have to drive 4-5 miles towards the nearest city before I even get 3G. That said when I leave LTE as recommended at home I get 1 to no bars and lose cell signal completely in parts of the house. When I switch to 2G only I sit at 3-Full bars everywhere. I'm on wifi at home but still switching helps me with battery.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] muyoso:
That's what I would expect to happen. Testing it out right now just to be sure. Trying to get my phone ready for when Google cuts off the xmpp access and I no longer can rely on VOIP at home. Usually I am in airplane mode at home with the WiFi on, so I have never had to worry about a mobile connection preference.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] amphi66:
What does that setting do to your text messaging? Can you receive them over WIFI? And doesn't airplane mode disable the WIFI?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] muyoso:
I have it setup so Tasker doesn't touch the WiFi, but yes usually airplane mode would disable WiFi. I use Google voice for texting with the xvoice+ closed module, which allows me to text using Google Hangouts like normal. I used to get an annoying toast every time I sent a text telling me to insert a Sim because the phone was in airplane mode, but I got an xposed module to get rid of that toast, so everything works as expected.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] amphi66:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] yogi217:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] RobbieL811:
You should be able to mess around with BBS & figure out which app it is. Personally I would just put it to device only & download better weather extension. I feel like that for battery savings, your best bet is goons be to use GPS only. This is how I get the best results. If you don't wanna use GPS only, check all of your apps that use location (weather apps, maps, anything like that) & try to pinpoint it with BBS.

please.. give me a changelog atleast I'm addicted.. I need next weekly or stable :crying:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] yogi217:
Thanks. I'll mess around with bbs while/when I have the time. After a reboot, and opening apps slowly, it seems like Google Now may be the culprit. I'm going to see if greenifying Google search helps... I may just turn it off.

But, I am going to use your advice to get by in the meantime.

Thanks for your help!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] RobbieL811:
Yeah. Google Now is pretty bad on battery. I personally don't use it. It sucks though b/c it has some pretty cool stuff.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Seikoom:
Greenifying Google Search is a pain... I've tried it before and something just keeps waking it up. I use this app called Wakelock Terminator which used an xposed module. I added the wakelocks that were causing me trouble - NlpWakeLock and GCoreFlp and now I only have AlarmManager wakelocks which I don't think I can really disable. The result is a few seconds of total wakelock a day which is far down my list of wakelocks. It also means I can use GPS on my other apps without having to switch GPS settings all the time.

Worst part is, I have Slimkat official running on my nexus 7 Grouper and I don't have nearly the same amount of wakelocks using Google now. So for some reason, it's just really bad on my Nexus 5. I'm going to do one more clean install since we don't have a new weekly and then I'll try wakelock terminator; and/or just use the better dashclock extension and just use device for gps settings.

Throughout the month i will be donating (well deserved to u).but wont be very active around here much more. I am deleting tapatalk, facebook,etc from my phone as I feel the smartphone is taking over my life and dont want to miss time with my kids. still unsure if i want to return stock and lock my bootloader (would make the wife happy!!) but for anyone searching, etc..slim is the only ROM ive ran on my past 3 phones..its that good! Farewell my friends! if anyone wants to chat PM me and ill give u my hangouts name.

First of all, thanks for you word's :)

Donations are a nice way to say thank you but for me never a incentive for my work here. For the other thing, yes, family, children should never be neglected. I notice it more often (I also have a wife and child) that you spend too much time with Tapatalk, Xda, IRC, and I think it's good if you know where the boundaries are. Take you one day in the week for you phone , community and all other and spend six days for your job/family and friends, i am sure all will be happy :)

Therefore, respect for your words mean.

No one cares that you're waiting. Stating that you're waiting is rude and along the same lines as asking for an ETA as is asking if you can see the progress. This is against the rules.

If you're really this desperate for an update that you're willing to break the rules, install the chrome add on called "page monitor" and have it monitor the weekly download page

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bulgareli:
First, I'd like to thanks the Slim Rom team for this great work. I installed this ROM yesterday and it's been great ever since. I'm only concerned about one thing: Using the xposed framework GravityBox, there is an option in lockscreen settings "Slide before unlock", that allows using sliding challenge with ring targets together with security lock. In other ROMs I used before this option always worked, but seems to have no effect on SlimKat. Is that because SlimKat has another lockcreen different than others?

Obs: Sorry for my english, :o
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] danarama:
Slimkat has its own lockscreen settings so it's no longer aosp. Gravitybox dev explicitly states custom roms are not supported. Some may work, some will not. Slim is feature-rich meaning it is far from pure aosp. Much of the code has changed from aosp so the code Gravitybox is designed to "alter" doesn't always exist. Many gravitybox features won't work on slim
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] chikimonke:
So as best I can tell from poking around, exFAT is an improvement over ext4, but F2FS is the clear winner over both. From what I can tell, it's because it's the first file system explicitly written for flash memory based devices. I know that to get F2FS working on your phone you need a compatible kernel, is the same true for exFAT?

Maybe this article can be interesting for you :)

Just a note on kernels - after playing with all the kernels available for the n5 - stick with the slim kernel supplied with the rom.

Performance is as good, or better, than any other kernel. Same with battery life.

And no su or any other types of glitches. This coming from a long time Franco fan.

Nothing against other kernels, but this is a winning combination.

no no

the photosphere camera will overwrite the rom camera....so do not do this
