[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] danarama:
It won't be added and it has been there forever... Even in kit kat. It doesn't make it less secure. Secure means cannot access phone functions. Power button doesn't alter that, so the term secure still applies.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Mikulec:
I have reported this few weeks ago, and as stated above I had this also on stock rom. Its definitely not caused by too many contacts, as I have only cca 150 of them.

Funny thing is that the caller id picture sometimes show itself (cca 1 or 2 out of 10 calls).

I think SlimLP no more deserves as an alpha build..running so stable and very much impressed with the quality of the ROM ! Really hatts off devs..came to this conclusion after trying almost every lollipop rom in my Nexus !

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] fizic:
SlimLP or SlimKat?

at the beginning of SlimLP I tried to use SlimLP and was very frustrated - ROM was very unstable and crude. I've made a lot of efforts to rollback to 4.4.4 and for today i'm happy with slimkat 9.0. But i'm still wondering - is there any improvements since a first builds? is there any significant achievements in frame of stability and functionality? i'm wondering because i want to try it again (SlimLP) but i'm afraid that again I face with a lot of issues.

btw, one of the main reason for me to postpone was absence of RUS T9 search in stock dialer, is it still missing?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Muvolt:
SlimLP is absolutely stable for me. There is really nothing very important that could be improved. More optimization is always welcomed of course. The only thing that bothers me is Google keyboard. Its correction system has problems (it stucks and always adds wrong letters etc..)

I ran f2fs for several months on slimkat and honestly. I noticed no real-world improvements. I'm not going to bother again. Too much faff for no noticeable improvement
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Muvolt:
Do we have to install it manually? Any chance of having it implemented inside a future recovery / rom / kernel update?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] danarama:
You will need to use a specific recovery, kernel and ramdisk
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bartimeus:
How to install F2FS?

Is there a specific SlimLP build that supports F2FS? I formatted /system, /data, and /cache to be f2fs and then attempted to install slimlp but it gave an error and had reformatted my /system partition to ext4.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] danarama:
No. You'll need a kernel and ramdisk to support it. This was mentioned in the post immediately before yours.

What you can do is sync the slim source and make the ramdisk changes and compile yourself, before flashing elemental x kernel.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bartimeus:
Do you have an example of the ramdisk changes that would need to be made?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] danarama:
You just have to change the mounts to use f2fs instead of ext 4 in the fstab. You wouldn't be able to use the stock kernel though as kernel would also need changes, so you could amend ramdisk and use elementalx for example.

Here is my commit used for slimkat. I don't use f2fs anymore so I haven't updated

For everyone that just needs to flash a new build every other day check out SBC. Even if building isn't for you there are releases there almost every day. Lot's of good info as well.

Just realize that everything in that thread will be based off the latest version of Slim so we won't update until they do but we'll still build and cherry pick the crap out of stuff.:cool:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] danarama:
Oh and word of caution, its a universal thread where some builders build for multiple devices and some just for one device that may not be your device, so check what you're flashing first

---------- Post added at 05:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:43 PM ----------

@dankoman and other slim devs, what are you guys planning with trds this time round? I remember mentioning using hex colours would be cool last year and maybe you considered it (I think) but even just instead of just dark, a few different material colours would be really nice.. Is this something in future perhaps?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
Hex colors would be the ultimate, if possible :) Pick whatever color you want and the whole ROM is shifted to that color. Probably a LOT of work if at all possible, but would be really cool. Even if some elements were left out like keyboard or gapps themselves would probably need to be left out just by necessity, it would be nice to do hex's I think too...my opinion [emoji16]
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] CaspaTheGhost:
I think there are issues with colours that are hard coded, specifically in notifications so not sure if it'll be possible to have a choice.

I bloody hope so though...

Two good points.

You ever planning on releasing any of your personal builds on the SBC thread? I'm kinda on the fence about it for now. I'm still looking into getting github set up with a fork or maybe a clone. I'm starting to think maybe my copy and paste cherry pick style may have been faster after all. lol:cool:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] danarama:
I'm not actually building right now. I rebuilt my machine to mint but haven't set it up as a build machine yet.

I never did release any previously because I changed things that were personal to me, such as f2f# ramdisk etc...

Just using stock SlimLP right now.

---------- Post added at 06:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:02 PM ----------

Notifications are always an issue as the text is controlled from the source in some cases I believe (eg certain apps hard code the text to black)

But with material colours this shouldn't be too bad.

When I suggested it last year (I'm convinced [MENTION=1277872]dankoman[/MENTION] said it would be possible) hex was my preferred method, but now I'd be happier with predefined material colours.

But yeah, imagine its a fair amount of work.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] CaspaTheGhost:
I'd just be happy with some darkness, love the look of LP and the material colours but need to dull down that bright white...

So much so I'm putting up with that hard coded black for now!

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dankoman:
Mostly just waiting to see what Google does with material dark theme, as well as day/night transitions.

As for hex colors, I agree, it would be cool. And yes, a lot of work definitely, but not out of the question. Once we start pushing out stable builds, we can get to the nitty gritty and start innovating ?

FYI: A lot of people say good things about 439 dpi and 445 dpi, for apps to display correctly on the Nexus 5. Try those also. Of course, Google Nexus 5 default is 480 dpi.

You can go a little smaller, but 361 dpi is too miniscule in my opinion. Well, not only my opinion. :) Several have complaints, reported issues -- like you.

If you like SlimRom for their other excellent attributes. -- as I do, then you just have to fix a couple of quirky issues on your own, like this. :)

I like the SlimRom philosophy, and I've donated money to the effort, and I think you will like this better than any other custom ROM.

Anybody having problem with GPS on beta 2.1? I made a clean flash. GPS Status app can't lock GPS.

When I open Google maps the arrow showing my position is moving along the street as I'm walking. But when I set a route and switch map to navigation my position stays still even though I continue walking. When I quit navigation which brings me back to map, Google map refreshes my position and start moving it on map as I walk. Meanwhile GPS Status app still shows: Looking for GPS location...

GIF's Not working Hangouts

Devs !

I'm not sure if this is a ROM issue or an issue with Rooting, as it has been presented as a fault of both in different places. Was wondering if there is a fix for it.

In hangouts I am able to receive GIF images from anyone. However if i try to send anyone a GIF image ( sms or gtalk) the receiver just gets a still image instead of the GIF.

I un-rooted my phone and returned it to stock and tested it, sending and receiving works on stock.

Was wondering if there is a fix for this, there are a lot of cat gifs waiting to be sent.

My setup:

Latest Slimkat_Beta_2.1+slim_minimal_gapps+Franco_r31+SuperSu

Thanks
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
Haven't tried sending gifs myself, don't use franco, and don't use hangouts for sms's but, have you tried using the slim included kernel. The team has said many times that using a different kernel may break some functionality. That's only because it's not packaged with the ROM. The included kernel is tailor made to fit with all the different features of the ROM. So, may just wanna try running the ROM with the included kernel. That may fix the issue. Could be a ROM thing, but personally that's what I'd do. :)

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] fruitsalt:
I tried with the in built slim kernel ( clean install) didnt work. I tried using the built in messaging, 8sms and slidingsms all of these dont even display gifs ( received or sent). Hangout is so far the only app for sms that I found that supports gifs.

The only reason I use franco kernel is because of the amazing battery life on it. With regular usage im getting over a day out of the phone with over 4 hours of screen time. Also the sound boost in franco kernel helps.

Gifs are definitely not a deal breaker, I can live without them just noticed that they didnt work so pointed it out. Research so far has shown that its a rooting issue, and all custom roms are affected by it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] kufikugel:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
Well, sounds like you've done your homework and tried just about all the possible avenues. Pretty much sounds like everything I would have tried myself really. Not a ROM dev, so kind of speculation on my part, but could be a ROM thing then. I know that I've seen quite a few roms borrow from Slim. Don't recall, have you tried a cm based ROM or cm itself. If you see it in one of those then It's gotta be a Google thing, if not maybe a slim thing.....kinda fishing now. :confused:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] fruitsalt:
Ive tried the following ROMS so far, just to check the GIF issue:

SlimKat beta 2.1

CM current nightly

Cataclysm

PSX

PurityROM

None of the above support GIF, I dont know what it could be thats across all of these that GIF wont work. The only thing ive found by googling is that its a rooting issue. Checked that by reverting back to stock, unrooted and everything and GIF start working. Seems like a zero priority unicorn is on the loose for rooted devices.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] joshnichols189:
.gif sending has nothing to do with the kernel.. the issue could be that the other person isn't using hangouts.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] fruitsalt:
its not a hangout to hangout issue, on android yeah you do need hangout as its the only app ( that i know of) that supports GIFs thru sms.

I sent GIFs back and forth between my nexus 5 and my iphone. I can send and receive GIFs when on stock rom, unrooted, and locked bootloader. But when rooted and running a custom rom like the ones i listed I can only receive, when I send a GIF it shows up as a still image.
