I'm sorry I was not clear. I meant a direct video calling. Like when you dial someone's number and instead of a voice call, you initiate a video call.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dankoman:
not through the dialer app, at least not on slim (though some carriers do have 3G-324M video calling native to the dialer app on their iterations of android on handsets, namely virgin mobile and vodaphone on the galaxy s line). probably possible to port the functionality, but i don't know why they would as google has moved to hangouts for this functionality.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Arijit.Ray81:
I agree. So it would not be possible to video call someone who doesn't use hangouts.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dankoman:
right. there are other platforms too, like skype.

...in a perfect world, hangouts video calling and iOS facetime and everything else would be cross-compatible. maybe koush will crap something out eventually ;).
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Cocktopus:
Guys, what is the SOT you are getting with this rom?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
3 to 6 hours. ;). All depends on your setup, what features are running, screen brightness, radio signal strength, apps installed, and your usage patterns.

In other words....what's a good average for me and for you may be totally different.

That said, I get over 6 usually. Almost everything off, screen dim, some things greenified, no games, few calls....etc. :)

This is what I did to fix the Google camera install problem.

1. Download latest Google camera apk from android police.

2. Copy the all to the system/apps folder

3. Wipe cache and dalvic cache with recovery, and reboot.

4. Go to my downloads folder where my original download of the latest Google camera apk is, and install it from there.

I have no idea if all those steps are necessary, but it worked

if you want to have slim features (which is 4.4.1 AOSP camera with our addons) and our gallery with our addons (also based on latest AOSP 4.4.1) you cannot flash any other one

if you want to have the gallery and camera from google which is closed source and has HDR eg you need to flash a 4.4.1 photosphere package or wait till we updated ours. But you loose slims gallery and camera features

so conclusion you just need to decide what you want :p
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
I must be lucky, blacks are just fine on my device, in the eye of a professional colorist anyway, which is me!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Krunk83:
Okay, thanks. I was under the impression that the updated camera was included but I gues the camera isn't part of AOSP. What does your gallery offer over google's?

Also, having some issues getting out of Edge and H+ networks to get to LTE. I have to do it manually via airplane mode. I have a bad signal at work so it goes in and out.

Hey Kufi, thanks again for all your work. So I want to try out the new 4.4.1 camera, and I download it from here, but after rebooting, I still seem to have the Slim camera (SC option rather than HDR as evidence) Am I missing something in this process? Do I have to remove something first?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tcowl:
In order to upgrade to the 4.4.1 slim, do i need to update the bootloader and radio first?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] LorD ClockaN:
NO, OP said he didn't updated yet

I just updated and using them on 4.4 rom :D
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] chikimonke:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AndrasLOHF:
It's been a flashoholic's dream the past 3 days. 3 new Slim betas, a new Faux kernel, a new bootloader, and a new radio. WOOT!!!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tcowl:
flash boot, flash radio, flash slim, flash gapps. good to go?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] chikimonke:
Should be, though it's been recommended that you back up the EFS partition while in TWRP and stash that file away somewhere off your device first.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] LorD ClockaN:
Just flashed your uploaded 4.4.1 build and that is the first NOT-myBuild that I flashed after I think 2y or more..

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] amtomio2004:
I am confused

Two questions:

Is de link there on the slims.net web already the final 4.4.1 rom? (Slim-hammerhead-4.4.1.beta.1.1-UNOFFICIAL-20131206-1450)

Has it the new camera, the bootloader, radio, etc.?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tcowl:
damn i'm going brain dead today it seems. is it enough to do the efs backup paired with the standard nand,(i.e. can the efs data be pulled out of that) or should that be a separate backup?

i appreciate the responses!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mendozaram:
You got to flash Bootloader and Radio...if you want.

I flash the radio only.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] chikimonke:
Final ROM? The 4.4.1 changes have been merged into the latest Slim Beta 1.1 to make this mid-week update.

To the best of my knowledge, custom ROMs never include bootloaders and radios. You have to flash those yourself.

Also, Kufi explained a page or so back about the camera. The Slim camera is still included in this build, if you want the stock camera, you have to flash it yourself, though there seem to be issues with doing that right now. Being worked on here

---------- Post added at 11:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:28 AM ----------

The thread that has the updated Radios explains it pretty well in the OP. I personally made a backup of just the EFS (easy to do in TWRP) and then saved that on my Google Drive for safe keeping. He mentions that you can have it as part of your everytime backup, but to make sure to keep the original backup safe, as your frequent full backup may already be corrupt and not much help.

Had you updated to the new version of Maps? My battery was great, but today I noticed that wifi was showing up in both android battery stats and BBS as sucking a lot of juice. It wasn't on, but "always allow scanning" was. That's never given me trouble before, but I turned it off and now battery consumption is back to normal.

This all happened after I updated to the new version of Maps last night. I think that's the culprit....

You may want to:

1) update to r48, and

2) use a per app mode to underclock the cpu to 1.2ghz or thereabouts to prevent thermal throttling

Trying to find out what step in missing with getting commits added to my build.

I've went to Gerrit and used the fetch command it gives but I get not a git repository.

I'm able to sync and do normal builds with the things already merged.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Garrykd:
You need to be in the correct directory that the commit belongs in when you pick it

For example, if the commit is frameworks_base, in a terminal window, change directories within your build directory to frameworks/base and then pick the commit.

If there are other commits that belong in different directories (eg. Settings), cd to that directory, then add the commit(s)

hi all have you that http://forum.frandroid.com/topic/173144-rom442halopieotafrslimkaterator-5-pcfr-0805/, anyone know what is "pre code freeze realease"? i find nothing about that
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobby_sucker:
Unfortunately, this method didn't work for me as the app cannot be installed after launch.

By the way, when having Plume/Facebook launched w/o any other heavy apps free memory drops up to 800mb available. I know Android is managing stuff by itself with no worries, but i'm just surprised why so little memory available. It's just me who has noticed that?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dankoman:
If you're using the kernel that came with slim, you don't need stickmount, because slim has native OTG support for hammerhead. If you're using a different kernel, please redirect your question to the kernel's thread. Maybe it's the latest version of your kernel that's causing issues.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] damngood98:
that site/developer has nothing to do with the official slim team....but, it's obviously a slim based rom.....pre code freeze happens (usually early in the week) right before a stable release...slimkat 5.0 should be available as the next release....more of a formality than anything as the weeklies are typically just as stable
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
That's about where I sit at with free memory. I've noticed with just the os loaded, I start with right around 1.6 to 1.7 GB available storage. So basically with 144 apps on my phone, slim, launcher, etc. about half my memory is taken. Sooo, wouldn't worry too much about running out of memory. [emoji6]

from my N5
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AvRS:
It basically means a test release before they freeze the code ready for the next stable to be published so anyone building themselves will know that there may be additions still before freezing the base. When frozen no more open commits will be merged and only after release it will be un-frozen so to speak and business as usual for weeklies.

Used AICP rom for a while since it had slim recents and a bunch of other features. It felt odd so I went back to slimkat and man, slimkat is soo much faster.

One request though, can slimkat implement adjustable time out for the pop-up when you change the volume?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
You mean change the timing between when you push a volume button and the volume panel showing up? Just curious, what do you use that for?

from my N5
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tcowl:
I believe he means how long the floating window stays present after adjusting the volume...correct me if i'm wrong though. But i don't think this will be a feature that gets implemented since when you make your volume adjustment you can tap anywhere on the screen outside that window and it will make the volume panel go away immediately.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Natakranta:
April 1st if I remember correctly ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dankoman:
you mean this and this? that was an omnirom feature by [MENTION=4958387]UtkarshGupta[/MENTION] before AICP kanged it. personally, i wouldn't mind seeing this make an appearance in slim either, due to the annoyance presented when you're adjusting the volume while watching a youtube video or something and the volume overlay panel blocks a good portion of the screen, and stays there for way too long.

temporary solution? yup, you guessed it: tasker + chamber comes to the rescue! i set an application context (youtube), then for the enter task, use autoshortcut plugin + chamber of secrets, setting mode_volume_overlay to 3 (disabled). for the exit task, set it back to whatever it was before (single = 0, expandable = 1, expanded = 2).

slim tasker gang represent!

edit: yes! finally got to use that superman tasker thing :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tracerit:
Yup that's the feature. I usually click outside the pop-up to dismiss it quicker but like the other user mentioned, it's almost all the time when I'm playing a YouTube video so it'll end up pausing the video.

I can use gravity box to adjust it but I don't want to have gravity box changing the rest of the system jist for that one feature.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Natakranta:
I haven't been using it for a while but I think [MENTION=3185139]kroz[/MENTION] SlimHue theme had semi transparent background.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dankoman:
it does, in the 1.2 versions of slimhue, and it creates an incredibly sexy effect:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
Ahh, got ya. I think that if the team were to go through and do a feature like that why just limit it to the volume panel. I would vote to make it system wide for all pop-ups if possible. All that being said though, don't think it'll happen either. :)

I think even with Apex FULLY loaded: icons, theme, icons slightly resized to fit the screen just how I like and the launcher actually locked in memory to reduce redraws, it still only takes up about 120 mb of memory. Absolutely scary and a big fail. :eek:
