Screen Recorder KitKat

Hi,

I just started to use Purity ROM and I need to use the KitKat screen recorder (with the command adb shell screenrecorder on th computer), but I have two problems. I can't record more than 2 minutes of video, and often, when I try to use the screen recorder, the Nexus 5 reboot.

Is there a fix for these problems ? Thanks.

Hello, anyone is facing problem every reboot the brightness seem too bright unless we adjust it. Anyone notice that?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jlevy73:
Every once in a while my brightness gets a little out whack but I've never noticed it after a reboot. Have you set brightness to auto?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] joseph168:
OK thanks. My brightness is auto unchecked. Now first boot it is very bright but once we lock the screen and unlock back, it becomes normal.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jlevy73:
I have auto-brightness checked, perhaps that could be the issue, not really sure. Like I said, it happens every once in a while but usually corrects itself on it's own relatively quickly. If it becomes a problem, try grabbing a log and posting it here.

Guys has anyone noticed huge battery drain with the latest (16/02) release? Or maybe it's because I'm using a custom kernel? (latest n3ohammer, v20 for AOSP)

EDIT: it's strange also because into battery stats there are no relevant things which could cause this huge battery drain (I mean, I used the display for about 30-40 minutes and it drained about 35% of battery, but this also happens with the screen off..). There are no wakelocks from Android OS or anything else.. Don't know :?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ShahzaadT:
Yeah I have noticed the drain is quite bad. Trying a variety of different kernels to see if it helps. Elemental x was the same. Currently running faux kernel and the drain doesn't seem too bad now
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] blak24:
So it's the ROM which has some problems? Also because I was using n30hammer v19 with the previous release of the Purity and battery was good. Now I flashed the n3ohammer v19 again, but the drain is still here.. I'll try flashing the previous Purity and see if it helps, then I'll try with the kernel you mentioned :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
Hi,

You are using a custom kernel... Try with Purity kernel... and read the OP about reporting bug or issue, that includes battery life (and in the second post there is a link to a Q&A thread, at least use it to report something if you are not using Purity kernel, or other Gapps for example than the one recommended).

Our uses vary from day to day (and signal quality play its role), we can't have at 100% the same use between xx build and xy build...

Check your wackelocks, Battery stats to see what is draining your battery more than usual or at least more than the previous build and see if you find something directly related to the rom... report properly, with screenshots, logs, details at least, instead of "i have huge battery drain with this build".

For me battery life seems better then...

I saw you added double tap on notification bar for locking the screen. It's a nice touch!

But would be even better having swipe on the navigation buttons for locking ;)

I can now double tap on my lockscreen, not just the notification bar, and it locks the phone...that's awesome!!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] rhamej:
I think he means swipe right to left along the negation buttons to lock. Not assign a quick short cut. However, I think that is kernel related. Not ROM related.

What I have done using nova launcher is assign double tab to an app called "Turn off the screen". The only drawback is you have to be on a home screen and not in an app. If I'm in an app, I just double tap the status bar.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Diesel6401:
Makes more sense
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SubZero.it:
Someone understood me :)

Yeah it's kernel related, I'm using it with elementalx kernel.

Isn't it possible to put like that in the ROM?

I'm just asking, I never saw it without a kernel.

Sent from Hammerhead
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
Hi,

The reply is in your question :D

It's on the kernel side so until DariosF implement swype2wake/swype2sleep or something like that in Purity kernel (slightly modified stock kernel) you need to use another kernel with this feature...

But yes the Quick launch shortcuts can do something similar, swype Home and Screen OFF...

Let's hope he will implement it in the purity kernel ;)

This is what I do, I actually use the Google now nav bar with this feature... Never had a reason to before.

Quick and easy, no fuss :)

Phone Force Close on clean wipe

Alright, so i've tried this a few times. But every time i try to do a clean install, i get the Phone force closing as soon as the system boots up. Now i mean clean, complete format, and fresh sideload of the most recent Purity build, and the current Stock Gapps. And it is still force closing on me. The only time it does not, is when i restore from a backup, and then dirty flash Purity over, instead of clean.

I want to clean flash, but this is driving me nuts, i'm wiping the entire thing clean, is this the google dialer crap? If so, how is it effecting me, after i do a full format wipe, then sideload?

Edit: Alright, so i broke down and used the Nexus ToolKit to go completely back to stock, then re-root, and such. So far, seems like it's resolved the issue. Additionally i notice now, that before when i did wipes in TWRP it was taking an exaggerated amount of time. Sometimes 4-8 minutes, where as now, it takes 30-45 seconds. Seems i might have had other problems plaguing me. Clean house fixes it all thought.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] definator:
You can do so, but i suggest you not to

The inbound kernel beats the current Franco in battery, stability and in my eyes even in real usage performance

My advice: try before overwriting it

THX to the devs for this awesome thing!

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
Hi,

@ DarkFantasy6, Theme Chooser NO as stated the dev (even a solid never if I remember right).

For the white... it has been already discussed, it's to follow the Kit Kat "guideline" and it fixe some blue here and there... :D

Anyone might help.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
Flash the stock kernel first, then post your battery stats, then if it's related to GravityBox it's nothing related to this rom, ask in the thread I posted above...

It's not because you are using Purity rom that the issue is from the rom (and by using different mods, apps, kernel, etc...). It's on your side. Uninstall GravityBox and see how is your battery life.

At least there is a Q&A thread for this kind of questions (see the second post).

Thanks.

NavBar issue.

Dear Dev/fellow members,

I have been encountering a weird problem which I asked earlier as well. However, did not receive a response on it.

The problem is that whenever I apply a navbar mod, the menu (menu big) is not updated. Only the small menu icon with the 3 dots (auto hide & always show) is changed. The main menu icon remains the stock one, i.e., 3 horizontal lines. Any way to fix that?? As of now I am unable to apply any navbar mods because the menu icon wont change.

Since I use 4 navbar buttons, its very annoying not being able to mod the icons. Would appreciate help in this regard.

Great ROM apart from that.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dsmpampis:
You mean the small menu? I think this have to do with the theme(mod) that you use. You have to ask the guys from the *candy shop*. View attachment 2597662

I'm sorry I didn't mean to offend you by going off topic. I'm just used to posting the setup of a ROM I'm using in their ROM threads. I don't know why, but usually when I see pretty home screens of a ROM I'm more inclined to flash that ROM, so I thought it might have a similar effect on other users. I'll stop though. Didn't mean to go off topic or offend anyone.

I like this ROM but this thread simply has some of the rudest people on Xda. If someone is going to respond to a post why would they respond negatively and waste both parties time? I know a lot of questions are redundant but if someone replies and just answers the question or remains positive the thread flows much smoother. Now who's going to bash me first?

Totally agree with you. A positive thread is a happy thread. With so many new Android users, XDA has changed and not necessarily for the good. Just have to rise about the negativity and help people out when you can. Niceness is some times contagious.

Thanks! I may as well ask here, which Gapps package should I download from the other thread? "GOOGLE STOCK PACKAGE", does that have everything in it?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
In the OP, the PA Gapps are "recommended" I would say (read the description for the different packages and add-on), but for me I use BaNkS Gapps (HERE), all works fine and there is all (but there is not the Google Dialer).

EDIT: yes "GOOGLE STOCK PACKAGE" and "ADD-ON MODULES" for the Google Dialer.

Thanks, done! Funny how I was getting 403 error on the store with Cataclysm rom and I still get it with this ROM. My friend who's from my city does not get it. What is going on? :(
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
No issue here with the Play Store, I just tested.

Maybe a problem local/temporary..., nothing related to the rom.

Try to clear data/cache for the Play Store and reboot but I doubt it will do something, just need to wait until Google solve the problem?

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nucleotide:
If it is only happening while using WIFI in your house, wouldn't that suggest a router issue? Not sure why you reflashing ROM's etc.

It is going to use the internet connection of your WIFI to determine the location. For all we know there could be issues with your ISP so they are routing traffic via a different, possibly much further away location.

WIFI location has never been very accurate for me. I could be on one side of town one week and across the other side the week after.

I tried with my brothers lg optimus g e970 connected to the same WiFi. His GPS is showing the correct location.

If you are experiencing a battery drain from the "Android OS" service, this is a known 4.4.2 KitKat issue, and not an issue with this ROM. My Nexus 7 does the same thing, draining the battery overnight from Android OS, and the N7 is running the latest Purity build. The issue may be related to WiFi background processes keeping the device awake, but no consistent workaround has been developed.

For reference, https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/nexus/HV2TICIjX9U[1-25-false]. There are helpful insights there.

This is widespread enough of an issue that I am sure Google will plug the hole in 4.4.3 or whatever comes next.

Really loving this ROM, but only thing missing for me is the numerical battery percent indicator to the left of the battery bar. Is there any chance it could be included in the next version? Or perhaps a flashable mod? There was a thread in the themes section for a mod to add that percentage, but I I think it caused conflicts with the framework, as it made the clear recents button disappear.
