That is true, but AcDisplay has been alright in that aspect for me. Also, it may work better if you have x tap to wake, working on your phone/kernel, which would make AcDisplay the best, imo. But yeah, both are really good. Just the matter of personal preference here.

It is really nice! You can remove the black background and make it use your wallpaper. And it really looks neat. After using it for just one day, and seeing how notifications are received, I have no regrets for ditching lockscreen notifications at cost of faster ROM, and stable at that!

For anyone who has had/is having issues with the phone app let me share my experience briefly. I usually dirty flash purity updates. This one was no different except phone app disappeared and I couldn't reinstall.

So I clean flashed, but when it booted up I had intrusive prompts "phone has stopped." Reading around I couldn't find a solution so I just went and tried a different ROM. Didn't like it so I tried purity again. And it worked. Wiped clean between flashing of course. I suspect there are some things that didn't get wiped that were causing bugs and only flashing a different ROM entirely was I able to overwrite some issues. If I find myself with a rare problem then I will try that. Never had to do this and I've been rooting and flashing since the original Motorola droid.

Only issue I have left is that Amazon won't install, it says my device is not compatible...

Did a flash-all.bat to return my device to pure stock, wiped everything, clean install - finally my N5 is running like it should. I wish I would have tried Purity sooner. Not a single force close, great battery life, clean and very fast! Thank you!

Is there a reason to use the Google Camera instead of the AOSP Camera? Or are they basically the same?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sirovai:
Do you have problems with contacts sync? Can you chech it for me? Thanks
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] CitizenLee:
Funny you should mention contact sync problems... I was going to update to latest Purity last night but decided to try Slim first (4.4.3). All looked to be running fine until I noticed it wouldn't sync contacts. I then reverted back to my Purity 08/05 back-up.

What GAPPs did you use?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Recl@imer:
Format internal storage

Guys,

Does our favorite rom wipe internal storage when flashing? TWRP does not. Was wondering if the ROM does it when we flash.

Thanks.:good:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] d-rail:
That is hit or miss with me. Has been since I first setup the device 2 weeks ago and stayed consistent across; stock 4.4.2, stock 4.4.3, & CM11. Full wipes and/or flash-all.bat always done.

I just 'checked' the contacts box, and it sync'd fine. But then I went back in, 'checked' the box again, and it failed. :shrug:

Edit - I used Bank's minimal GApps.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GtrCraft:
The rom only wipes system during flashing
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Recl@imer:
Ah.ok. So all my TWRP and titanium backup folders will be left alone? since they are on internal storage. Cool.

Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sirovai:
Banks gapps. But I had the same issue with PA gapps.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] CitizenLee:
I tired Danko's latest GAPPs posted in the Slim thread, and then PA, but both had the same issue.

Weird that some people have the issue and some don't.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Woody:
I think that someone already answered this but I'll go at it again just in case I was in a different thread and read that.

In TWRP:

Wipe /data = Wiping User Data like a Factory Reset

Wipe/Internal = It wipes your internal SD and anything that you had on your SD card will be gone.

Format /data = Same as wipe/internal in regards that your SD card will be wiped clean, but it will be a "deeper" clean like a fresh data.img flash. This a last resort before you have to reflash the factory imgs.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Recl@imer:
Hey Woody,

Thanks for the break down. Have a better understanding of what TWRP does now. My original concern and question was if the purity ROM does a "Wipe\Internal" wipe. I kind user said it only wipes system. I just wanted to confirm my internal storage would be left alone after a "clean" install.

Thanks again.

Dalvik / Bionic libs

Anyone here using the dalvik /bionic libs, either form the Z2 or MotoX? Is the bionic already optimized?

I was running cataclysm before and the motoX libs made a big difference. Since devpt of cataclysm seems to have stopped I switched over to purity and wanted to hear from folks if they were still flashing it?

I flashed the M8 optimized libs and they barely made a difference (in Antutu scores atleast; 25K to 27K) and when I tried to revert, I ran into a system crash followed by TWRP going nuts for some reason. So now I am little wary of flashing any libs and wanted to hear from you folks.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] umataro42:
Thanks for an awesome ROM, and getting it to 4.4.3 so quickly. Flashed it yesterday morning and it's running well so far.

I was trying to use the 4 custom lockscreen shortcuts, but if I have my security set to PIN, there's no lock icon. Is there a setting I missed to have it appear first, or is this something that will be added, or that requires an Xposed module?

Thanks in advance for any help!

I always used Elementalx with this rom and is a perfect combo! Tested also the Code Blue but don't like it as much as ElementalX. But never tested Franco... Do you think it worth a try? Why? My preference is smoother!

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] kraven001:
No place for this kind of discussion, everyone has his preference, usually for the every day user all of your choices are just fine. For hard-core geeks some of the kernels provide various advantages. But none are "bad", hell all of them are just smooth.

My advice: just settle on the one you like. If you are flash and forget go EX, if you want bleeding edge Code Blue (the test builds are always fun to try with various "crazy" tweaks that you never knew you needed), if you are somewhere in between go Franco.

Either way you should be just fine.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] applesuckz:
I have used elemental X for the last 5 months. Just switched to franco two weeks ago. IMO they are both the same in performance but franco is definitely much better in terms of battery life and standby time. I am sticking with franco for now.

Actually elemental might be a tad bit smoother. But is negligible for the battery life you gain with franco.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] applesuckz:
Like I said elemental might be a tiny bit smoother. But it's very negligible. That's just my observation. Try out franco for two days and see if you find any difference in smoothness.

Are you running on ART or dalvik mode. If you are running art I don't think the libs should make any difference. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

I am currently running an older build of Purity but am being prompted to do an OTA. I would like to update to the newest build but I don't want to have to wipe my device and re-install and configure all my stuff. Is there any way this can be done? If so, how?

I apologize if this has been answered 1000 times but I wasn't able to find anything definitive, other than people telling me to dirty flash. I only vaguely know that means, to flash the ROM with no wipes (or only some of the wipes?) but any help would be appreciated!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] CaptainSpazzz:
you can use titanium backup if your rooted to backup all your apps and app settings/data but don't backup system apps... and as far as the SD card goes you can just copy that whole directory to your PC then just do a clean flash of stock 4.4.3, install custom recovery then flash the new purity build. then you can just copy your SD card content back to your phones internal storage. that's what I did.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] basik17:
Sorry I should have specified. I am rooted, running TWRP, and a older build of Purity. Doing a clean install is what I was trying to avoid, if at all possible. I don't really want to have to reconfigure every system setting and customization.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] z31s1g:
Why don't you do as "the other people" suggested?

I made the effort of a clean install on hammerhead. Afterwards I simply dirty flashed from 4.4.2 to 4.4.3 on my old and new Nexus 7 without any troubles occurring afterwards.

While a clean install is always recommended to avoid any troubles, it seems to me that this is what you need to do if you don't want to backup and restore your apps.

Just download the rom and flash it over your current one. Make a backup of your rom first, so you can go back in case dirty flashing doesn't work out for you. You can't loose if you have a backup...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] basik17:
