Slimkat>>>>>>>>>> stock lollipop things that bother me:1 viper4android problems

2 NO customication (shake things, navigation ring stuff etc) 3 no right side pulldown for quick toggles. App switcher I actually would like something SLIMmer again .... And plenty more(dualbooting for now)

and finally..... google y u no include battery percent option?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] gravedigger76:
Yes they did include percentage.

Look at the top when pulling down notification bar all the way.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Laggalot:
Are you kidding me? Who wants to do this if I could just have it there all the time (kitkat has percent in quick toggles aswell....)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] midgarsormr:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.kroegerama.android4batpercent&hl=en

Has worked like a charm for me so far. I did a clean flash however. Another user had some issues with it not showing on reboot.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AA1973:
Kroegerama's Battery Percent works perfectly. No issues.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Laggalot:
Since I am using Slim Dpi (370) I have to literally squint my eyes to see it :/
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] paradoxiumwind:
I'd like to switch to L, but I really need a lot of SlimKat options, like being able to change the DPI of the soft-buttons
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mendozaram:
Im using Lollipop at 370dpi and softbuttons are tiny
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] derukun:
I'd try LP too but no Pie...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Joshmccullough:
Is that time/date/battery widget a stock Lollipop widget? Looks cool....
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] pietropizzi:
I assume you just changed the build.prop ?

Any issues with downloading or not-visible apps in playstore ?

Whats your time/batt widget, looks nice !
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] derukun:
Just flashed the weekly, broke Play Store... trying to get Google Play Services but it keeps looping the account selection and when I try to add an existing account it prompts me that there was an error connecting to Google..

Any fix for this? Or should I just clean flash (though I don't really want to... then i gotta back up a bunch of ****)

I'm dirty flashing from 8.6 btw.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
Check features of l roms - a few have sizable buttons, and some clock tweaks - it's getting there
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] coolek33:
Flashed latest beta gapps? Cause here all is fine.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] derukun:
I flashed the 282 gapps, maybe it was outdated

Anyway I wanted to try out L anyway so I flashed a 5.0 rom for now, just to try it out
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Chitown021:
I'm itching to try L but for now I'm holding out for the release of SlimLP.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ralpheboyo:
....slim team pumping away....a certain person merged 6 pages full today on gerrit just for kernel stuff....:0
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] eddiehk6:
You could:

- nandroid backup

- full wipe000

- flash stock 5.0 ROM.zip from development section

- have a play around

- turn off, reboot to recovery and restore nandoid

I did this just to try, really liked it overall. Excited to see what Slim team will do with it!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
Exactly what I did!

But now, a few weeks later, I can't go back to kk. Even deleted the kk bus I had.

L runs and looks too good to go back.

OT: Inbox Invite

Update: I am out of invites again.

Hey guys, if you are still interested in Google inbox invites, Google just handed me 2 more invites to hand out. pm me your gmail addresses.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] lightingcloud:
I used Inbox for 5 minutes then ragequitted. XD

Anyway can't wait for the next stable, it will be my first clean flash since long time!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] coolek33:
They're outdated for sure not maybe.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] graffix31:
it seemed weird to me to at first but after using it for a while i cant imagine going back.. it really does make your email so much more usable. it is just different so it is strange at first.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] peach007:
Agreed. Feels weird at first but I like it now. I do however, still use my gmail app for main use until I get accustomed to inbox better
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JoeBear1975:
Thanks y'all for talking about it. Got my invite & installed it. Gonna have to get use to it, but worth it so far. :thumbup:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Jubakuba:
Goddamnitgoogle. I haven't flashed L on a phone yet, but this is annoying indeed. Consider the bring-up part of my de-butchering cleaning up of do not disturb and all sound related functionality...

I'll be back in action once my Nexus 6 gets here and I have no choice but to fix everything on it :p
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ANDROIDRAZRM:
Yeah, I hope it's an oversight and if not, that slim reintroduces silent mode.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Chitown021:
I might give that a shot this weekend. I thought about doing it but I'm constantly using my phone so I didn't have time during the week.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
Just had to reply, as this got me about a week ago. I kinda see the logic to this believe it or not!

True, silent from volume key isn't there, but .......

Notification access appears to be very granular. Unfortunately that also appears to make things a bit more complicated.

Setting to none will disable all sounds, and there is a warning in red specifically saying not even alarms.

But we also have priority only mode now. Where you set what comes through, from calls to messaging, and now the interesting part, app notifications - we have to allow an app in sound and notifications/app notifications and allow priority notifications - for each app - so it can notify in priority mode. That was a mouthful!

Interesting

Just used Texdroider DPi from store

Yes, for me, only BBM and Amazon doesnt show, i download the apk and install them.

Its a widget from xWidget app , available in store for free

Oh, I get to be the first to say it....happy birthday Tylog! :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] naien:
Hey, do you guys use LightFlow? I dont know why but I cant get it to work. Do i have to enable Notifications in Android Settings? If I do that, the Test Notifications work, but they interfere with those from Android.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Laggalot:
I have an ahead if time feature request .... With Lollipop there is no silent mode anymore ... theres just vibrate or that leave me alone option.... thing is I DO want to get my notifications, i just dont want to have my phone vibrate...(currently i solve this with francos kernel , i just simply set vibration intensity to 0 while in class )
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] naien:
Nervermind, I just set the Standard Notifications to Black and very short. Dont know if that Behaviour is supposed to be like it is but it works
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] RohitSGS2:
any ETA on the SlimKat ROM for Android L? I am contemplating between installing the stock L or waiting for the SlimKat release. I am currently on L Developer preview. I appreciate if anyone could give me an update. Cheers
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
ETA questions are rather shunned upon at XDA for good reason. Let the devs do their work at their own pace please :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Hopper8:
The response above mine is 100% correct, please don't ask for ETA's.

But you can check the progress on slim github, and gerrit. Slim team is merging commits at a crazy rate :eek: :D

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] peach007:
Are you referring to gmail or inbox? I used blue mail before but once I was able to add IMAP/exchange accounts to gmail, it made everything that much better.

I must say things do take a while getting used to, however, if you use it exclusively for a few days, it becomes natural ☺
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nexuspur:
myMail is also very good. ;)

something off topic: What is so good about the new google calendar? It looks awful in portrait mode. I can't figure out the events / dates etc.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NovaSlim:

Really? for me it is really good in both modes, I really like the Schedule view in portrait mode and all my events/dates are very clear.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tylog:
No, we are ready when we are ready. It is going well but we will definitely call no date.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] RohitSGS2:
I appreciate everyone's feedback on this and the hard work of everyone who is putting in their bit to support the development of this SK ROM. Keep up the great work! Cheers!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] peach007:
Agreed. I can't imagine the countless hours spend trying to do something for their community. I wish society was as helpful and appreciative as the people in this thread. I applaud you all

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
There is a silent mode - but it is totally silent!

A few posts above yours explains it a bit more.

Check app settings for vibrate option if it's really a problem.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AndrasLOHF:
Just thought I'd toss out a suggestion. Once you great devs get TRDS back into the mix maybe this go round a black like what is used in Cabinet beta when you turn it to dark mode should be used instead of the traditional black that has been used for years. I think it suits the overall Material Design color pallet much better. Just my 2cents;););)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Laggalot:
All I want is the volume down silent mode! Its just so convenient!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Jax Teller:
I haven't seen the material dark of Cabinet beta but the material dark of SuperSU is really nice and it would suit TRDS for SlimLP very well.

Of course I would never say no to a solid black TRDS. lol

Maybe [MENTION=1277872]dankoman[/MENTION] has some ideas about the future of TRDS. I remember him telling me that maybe in Lollipop there is a hidden system way to switch from material light to material dark and that maybe Google apps already include material dark, like Google keyboard.

That would make his life a lot easier.[emoji4]

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
It'll probably be back, just a matter of when.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] shr33kant:
The material dark in SuperSU is gorgeous :D 100% agree.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dankoman:
Well we know that at the very least, when the android Auto SDK is released later this year, it will bring native functionality for day/night transitions. shouldn't be difficult to bring this to all apps. It's exciting :D

If you want to read up on it, you can here. https://developer.android.com/auto/overview.html#daynighttransitions
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AndrasLOHF:
^^^^^that's awesome!!!!!^^^^^
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] luisangel89:
Sorry for this but I wanna let it out.

I am very disappointed with Lollipop and I've lost the confidence that I've had with flashing ROMs back and forth. From it wiping my freaking card and creating another annoying "0" folder to TiBU not restoring my apps, CWM not working as smooth as it did with all previous android versions. It also feels very heavy and bulky. All the hype the hype that was done by google of giving us previous here and there and with all the tagz is what made me go back to kit kat fow now.

Flashing SlimKat as I write this....
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
That's funny, as those "issues" are so easily fixed - with a little research - as should be done before getting into new territory.

As always, to each his own. I personally wouldn't go back to kk for anything. It looks and feels so dated, which it really is.

How can I configure my phone to NOT vibrate for notifications?

I'm sure i must miss something obvious but I have tried every setting I could think of. If someone could point me to the right setting it would be much appreciated.

Still using 8.10 weekly and its working great.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AndrasLOHF:
Troof. I had abandoned my beloved Slim for the later part of Kitkat once Theme engine came out because of this reason. I just couldn't bare to look at Holo anymore and was willing to trade function for aesthetics. :(

Looking forward to jumping back on the Slim train when LP comes out. WOOT WOOT!!!!!!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AA1973:
L does look even nicer with a slight touch of darkness.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] efan3719:
I've played around with Lollipops bit, but have decided to stay on SlimKat till the team has something to share with SlimLP. Lollipop is nice, but I'm too spoiled by Slim to live with stock android anymore.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] trawel:
I have a question, sorry if I shouldn't have asked for that. Are you guys trying to implement all the features that were in slimkat into slimLP and then release first version of slimLP or start releasing with few features and in next weeklys add more features that were in slimkat?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AvRS:
From previous experience they won't wait till everything is ready as per the last Android update which they started with the basics and released weeklies/monthlies bringing more each time. Some things weren't possible to bring across but instead they improved and reinvented which is all part of the fun. I'm on stock LP now after realising it was just my drivers that weren't correct and this was my first clean flash of anything in a very very long time. I won't be going back to KK again and may just stay on stock as finding it plenty good enough. Only thing I miss is the little things like swipe up on the home button to put it into silent and quick pulldown but that'll just take getting used to. Other than that really not missing anything as never used much else and I'm not even bothering to root. Will still watch what goes on with SlimLP as who knows may be convinced again to flash it, time will tell.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Jax Teller:
These are great news.

I can't wait to see your magic on SlimLP.[emoji4]

Thanks for the link.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] paradoxiumwind:
Same here. I miss the options with Slim. I hate to be another of those guys, but is there any timeframe for a SlimLollipop release?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
Here's what Tylog had to say just a few hours ago ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tylog:
Thank you :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
I thought the switch from slim to lollipop was easy. I'm not much into features, which was why I loved slim, but outside of nav bar customizations, most lollipop roms have all the features I need.

Even jubas advanced setting shortcut app works - for some things - like screen brightness.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Aerowinder:
Agree on the custom navbar. From the text selection carats to the ring targets.

I also want my battery percentage and my stupid center clock because I'm weird.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] derukun:
Not having an advanced reboot menu on power button and no real silent mode are annoying to me to no end on Stock LP, but otherwise its been treating me well.

Really like the material design, it really looks so much more polished and clean. Some stuff could be optimized better really but not a huge issue.

Can't wait for Slim LP
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
Center clock is there, as is date. Battery percentage is the useless one - battery with percent inside - no circle/percent.

A few apps handle reboot options, "silent" mode is a bit different.

Most of my gotta haves are there, more goodies I'm sure are on the way.

Of course, if a rom gets to the point of being bloated, like say liquid, I'll be here.

Lean and mean for me!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] acultr:
I would like to ask why is that?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] efan3719:
SlimRoms uses a built in SuperUser. they dont use SuperSU cuz, i think, it's closed source. but i think you can just flash SuperSU and us that if you want. Even when some apps complain they work perfectly fine.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] fraussantin:
What difference to supersu vs superuser?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] efan3719:
one is open source and one isnt. dunno as far as the code goes. they accomplish the same thing.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] fraussantin:
Ok, but works in the same mode ? And works fine on lollipop ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AA1973:
While SuperSU is actively developed by chainfire, despite the fact of being "closed source", most root apps get root access on lollipop instantly. I haven't run into an app not getting root with SuperSU > 2.16

But not all root apps work on L properly, such as Wakelock Detector and BBS. As L runs with SELinux Policy " enforcing" by default, they don't show proper results, whereas they do work properly (Wakelock Detector) or nearly properly (BBS, which is in the state of being made L-ready) in permissive mode.

There are more examples of this kind (ES File Explorer, System Monitor, ...), TiBu needs the Beta versions from their Twitter Account etc.

TLDR SuperSU works fine, it's up to the root app developer to get their apps L-ready, too.

Interesting read by chainfire On android LPX13D, SELinux and root if anyone's interested.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sherlock5545:
I'm really curious as to how you guys are going to implement the recent overview. The one from Lollipop looks nice but gets populated too much and becomes confusing. Would be nice to have a way limit the number of cards or clear them off.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Mikulec:
I think Titanium Backup was updated in playstore and is working on Lollipop now (as far as I remember)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AA1973:
Correct. It was updated in the PlayStore on November, 14 which is less than 2(!) days ago with an initial support for Lollipop.

Doesn't change much though as there are still quirks with root apps not working properly in enforcing mode.

Edit I will check later on Stock Google in Enforcing Mode and via MultiRom on Android LRX21T in permissive mode if I can restore some backups.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Aerowinder:
Where? I can't find them. Google is being useless.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] peach007:
I really miss the proximity speaker. I hope that finds its way to lollipop version of slim
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
Where ? If it's the options you mean, this is the rom I'm using right now

https://plus.google.com/app/basic/s...ic/stream/z12yyllxcmngi30bd04cgfbxwunpwxsq5bs

Some others also have these options, but this rom seems to be very solid.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bkai:
So I was allerted to this link about custom bionic and dalvik here on xda but going through the Slim changelogs it appears changes/enhancements are already being applied for this. So my question is straightforward... is this of any use on the N5 and current Slim beta?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
Run antutu. If you're scoring under 30k, flash the patch and test again.

I've been flashing the patch whenever I load a rom out of habit now. But if your scores are low, run the patch. You should see a big difference
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] akharadi:
Launcher?

Does this ROM have the stock GEL or AOSP launcher?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ttcrew:
It depends on the gapps you flash - "minimal gaps" you only get nova launcher - the "full" gaps gives you nova and GEL.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bkai:
I don't trust benchmarks... too many variables that cause different results each time you run them. I'm really just wanting to know if these or similar tweaks are already being used. The thread said some aosp roms already tweak bionic. And if I'm reading the versions correctly it looks like Slim is KOT49H while this tweak is KOT49E?

So you've been flashing both of these?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
There is a single zip somewhere, that's what I've been using. Best to google motox patch, that's how I found it. I believe the 1 zip has both patches.

Installing won't hurt anything, so if ya want to know, and no-one else responds with a definitive answer, run antutu before and after. The difference is more than noticeable.

Ps - benchmark results are only as consistent as the testing method used. Test when little else is running on the device and they are relatively consistent. On a rare occasion they may be very close, but for most within 5% is normal. Gotta account for some noise.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tracerit:
is there a nav ring targets for the nav bar feature in this rom? if so, how many can there be?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
Yes, 5 is the max

that's great. gonna switch over to SlimKat tonight.

one more question though, does formatting /system delete all the data on the phone? i'd like to do a titanium backup restore from my current rom.
