Halo is turned on but don't see it?

Ok, so after trying another build rom based on cyan 11 which crapped out on me all over the place I decided to give this one a go..and so far no problems at all. I even updated google services and it worked like a charm. However. I have halo enabled. When i went into the other rom and held my finger down on left side of screen and moved it slightly to right i saw a pie chart type of effect and I assume thats halo. After enabling it on this I don't see halo. How do you bring it up or use it or is this just a bug?

[MENTION=1118226]djl[/MENTION], not sure if you have it on your list of feature picks for the next build or not, but in case you didn't, I just wanted to throw out a reminder about the option for landscape volume button swap ?. As always, thanks for the killer ROM!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] FormeriPhoney:
DJ, is there anyway you can have the CM knock on and knock off feature?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] NovaSlim:
That's a kernel feature not a ROM feature, get a AOSP based kernel with dt2w features like ElementalX and you will get that feature.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] FormeriPhoney:
That's odd bc I just watched an official cm11 review for the LG G2 and knock off and knock on option was in settings
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] poondog:
Someone said m7 kernel? I will stalk your git immediately thanks

LG G2 has knock on feature on stock so it's already inbuilt. On other devices it's a kernel based feature

CM uses a custom kernel anyway on almost every non nexus phone
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] LocoRobo:
Yeah Elemental and Faux kernel has that feature. It's called dt2wake or double tap to wake though.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] pan.droid:
It's probably packaged with a kernel that supports it by default + the rom end has a switch to enable/disable it. With this rom double tap 2 wake is enabled by default so long as it's supported by your kernel settings. Anyway, lot of battery drain for modest nifty factor, IMO.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] LocoRobo:
Does anybody know how to change the the button longpress action on Headset to Google now voice search?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] DJLamontagneIII:
Your M7 Kernel is pretty badass BTW :P... Still learning things over there hopefully I can do something for that community soon.

Have the day off tomorrow finally so I can get a update going over here :)

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] DJLamontagneIII:
I don't use the app personally is it compatible with non phone devices?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] ecs1984:
It's incompatible with tablets even if you side-load, you can't get past the set-up.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] ibilln:
Oh. Of course. Who would ever want to text/send voice/send photos from their tablet?

Anyway, weird, because I searched for "whatsapp" in the thread and there seemed to be people using whatsapp on DJ's rom in November.

Thnx for responses
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] pan.droid:
Xposed Framework may have a mod to trick WhatsApp. I use Google Voice which doesn't have photo support and will eventually be merged with hangouts.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] androidfr33k:
Only part of Xposed works with this Rom, I know because I am running it. Not fully supported since the Rom structure was modified differently from other roms that it does work on.

google voice https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.googlevoice, TabletTalk https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.apdroid.tabtalk&hl=en,.. Theres a bunch of options.

I know there's a issue with conflicting QS settings you had pm'd me about before anything else?... Id like to look into fixing the compatibility.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] androidfr33k:
It was mostly QS but your settings are better anyhow. I only use it to give the wireless icon a different color by using QS and your setting I am able to do so. I also use it for the lockscreen image and a power feature soft reboot. There might be something else in gravity i'll check but it seems to work fine other than that.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] DJLamontagneIII:
Update is up!!... Bunch of fixes in there check my git for more details.. Now that im caught up il keep this updated thanks for the patience the last 2 months guys :). Let me know if the landscape QS bug is still present with this build.

It is possible to use WhatsApp on our nexus 7. I had it running for a while but there are some drawbacks. Just let me know it you really want to use it b4 i start writing a manual ;)

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] ecs1984:
Yea I actually got it running after messing around with a few methods.

I got it to work by completing the Whatsapp setup on my tablet while tethered to my phone, therefore tricking the app into thinking I was connected to Verizon's network. My phone received the registration code text message and once the app times out waiting for the message, you can enter the code manually.

I don't use the app on my phone, so I am not worried about having multiple devices on the same account. But if you also plan to use Whatsapp on your phone at the same time, I have no idea if this will create problems.

Sorry for getting off-topic. You can also try this method using Titanium or Helium to backup the app data from your phone and restore it on your tablet, no idea if it still works: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2061176

Great work on the update, DJL!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Duumke1:
Yeah i know how to install it thanx anyway :). I was using it on my phone and on my Nexus 7 used the number of my phone but chatting does not work great. Messages received can end up on the phone while using the tablet when chatting making you think you're not getting an answer. You will never receive a message on both devices the same time, it's one or the other wich is screwed up when chatting with someone and you don't have both devices nearby.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] makers_mark:
Nice work on the ROM again DJL :good: Very smooth and stable (so far)

About that soft reboot, without getting into the technicalities of the phrase; or anything like that; did you know that if you use Nova launcher (some third party apps allow it too) you can make a shortcut to an activity inside of a program? For instance if you want a Reboot button on one of your home screens:

Long press on a blank spot on your background.

Hit 'shortcuts'.

Very top of the list is 'Activities' hit it.

Scroll down to 'System UI' expand it.

Hit 'Reboot (instant)'

Now you have a one hit 'Reboot' button. I appologize if you already knew that, don't use nova, or that isn't exactly what you were trying to accomplish with the Xposed mod.

Here is a way I found to also make it reboot but not all the way. It just clears the memory and instantly goes to the start of the bootanimation, your system uptime still remains ticking though.

Go to 'Settings' and hit 'Advanced'

Select 'Power menu'

Hit the '+' in the top right.

Select 'Custom app'

Select 'Activities'

Select 'Android System'

Select 'com.android.internal.app.ChooserActivity' (On mine it's the first one)

Now when you go to your power menu if you select 'Android System: Android System' you get a ________ reboot. I'm aware that wasn't the intention of that activity, and that there are some other ones or ways to do that, maybe...

My favorite is the one click shortcut for ES FTP, one click of the shortcut and it instantly starts a ftp server from your N7.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] androidfr33k:
Thanks I did not know that. If DJL fixes the compatibility I will stick with Xposed, if not I will look into the Nova Launcher options.

Latest Build

You are absolutely right. This is a great build and it simply demands to be used as a daily driver.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Onraad:
Been using this ROM for a few days and it's great so far. One question: I noticed the option to resize or even disable the navigation bar. It sounds great to have more screen available when I'm playing a game, but how do you navigate without the navigation bar? :confused:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] NovaSlim:
You need to have access to pie navigation in that scenario, for example you can install pie control and then turn navigation bar off thus do all your navigation through pie.

For what you need just turn on Expanded Desktop(it is under power menu, if not then go to Settings->Build Tweaks->Advanced->Power Menu and add it. and the system will auto hide notification and navigation bars(it enforces immersive mode over the system), when you need to see/use those bars just swipe at the top of the screen and they will come back.

Alternates to pie control include gravity box(need exposed framework installed first) and other exposed modules with pie options.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Duumke1:
Great rom :) thanks fot that. Found one issue that cast screen does not work. Is this a known problem? Tried 3 different roms and it does not work in any of them. It only works on my other one which is not rooted and has a official kitkat on it.

A bit off topic but is anyone using Titanium Backup? I know how to use it but I wanted to know is there a way to besides backing up apps to also backup only system settings like Quick Settings, icon layout on home screen etc, so I can restore them on a clean install. I know Nova launcher can save most of the other stuff that TB cannot.

In TB I never save any of the Red text it always screws up the system for me. Would I just backup user app and system data leaving out all the red text and only include the white text (user apps) and yellow and green (system data)?

Not sure if the yellow and green files are the ones that backup the Quick Settings, Status Bar and icon layout?

Thanks
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] DJLamontagneIII:
Technically you could backup and restore data to the settings app to restore your settings but I wouldn't advise it.. With most added features comes changes to settings.

I found that in ES file explorer, using any sort of LAN connection functions as a decent replacement. If you PC is open as a server on your network, and you have a decent wireless router, it's often much faster than USB itself. Also using a NAS is possible, though slower than a PC in this case.

Black screen after clean flash

Hi,

I was on CM11 and now I want back to DJ's ROM after long time.

What I've done:

Format everything (Data, System, Cache) in TWRP

Again Wipe in TWRP

Follow steps from OP:

First Time Installing

Download the Rom (DJL4.4_custom_flo-ota-2014-03-10 => md5sum is OK)

Download compatible Gapps (from link)

Reboot to TWRP

Again WIPE DATA/FACTORY RESET

Flash the Rom

Flash Gapps

Reboot

After reboot I see the language selection and after 4 or 5 seconds a black screen.

Any solution for this?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] NovaSlim:
Do you have a TWRP image for when you were still on Stock AOSP? If so I'd restore to that and work from there.

Otherwise I suggest you try this One click factory restore toolkit, it will take your tablet back to 100% factory stock AOSP then you can root,unlock and flash TWRP then install DJL4.4. You would have to say bye bye to all your saved data this way though.
