:D with all respect: the "long press back button to kill" is usefull but when it comes to "kill all" I have different opinion:

The guy from the link you provided is asking a feature but he really wants something else (btw the same what i wants): we dont want to kill all running apps (as it makes no sence because android will fill the memory with empty processes immediatelly) but we want to see apps in the recent apps menu in the order we were using them which is not happenning all the time and I am curious why the list is messed....
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] skeamznz:
I use advanced task manager its has a widget I put on my homscreen which kills everything in the background same functionality as kill all button.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] s3icc0:
I am always partially crying and partially smiling seeing people using task killers, read something about it on the internet as it is really not helping (and thats a 1000x truth on this device) and it only drains your battery. It is better to greenify everything

In the future I will post the changelog and I will post a list of the important changes for users with no 100 percent knowledge ( not all people understand everything ) so all people can understand what's new / what's changed without a big knowledge.

One last word to the kill all. For now it's decided, if we bring another option like this we will see, I am sure we make it possible , we have plans, but for now all about it is said :)

Are some people really running so many apps simultaneously that 2GB isn't enough ram? lol

Let android do it's thing, it does a better job than some would give it credit for. Trust me, it almost always knows what its doing better than you :p

Its not that hard to swipe away a few memory hogging apps from the recents menu if you really must, though Greenify is the best way to go!

I do think porting the 'hold-back-to-kill' would be handy for some people, though I don't recall the last time I actually needed it:cool:

I'm in the process of making a Ubuntu VM for compiling. I'm a total linux noob but learning very fast, build environment is nearly ready to go.

I'm going to mess around and try some linaro CM and slim builds and stuff for personal use.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] s3icc0:
You will have to tell us how to extend battery life when doing the oposite:

- killing all apps means usage of cpu time

- android have to reopen apps to fill memory again - another cpu time

- lots of processes are doing its things when started (performing initial thing, trying to get data, etc) - cpu time

Most users are able to do 5 hours on screen without task killers :)

delete "time_daemon" after flashing a rom

A little question about the "time_daemon" file:

Is it correct that I have to delete /system/bin/time_daemon everytime I flash a new version of the rom

or is there a different way to get rid of the time problem?

Why is this file existing anyway when I have to delete it after a new flash?

(It is a little bit annoying, because when I forget to delete the file, my alarmclock isn't working correct.)

Thx for the infos.

Oh well that sux, if its set to 802.11n, you modem could be using an early N draft spec. Theres heaps of things to try if your having problems, but N draft has unfixable issues with a lot of other non N draft devices.

I just flashed slimkat 2.3., very happy with it as usual, thankyou devs :)

I noticed a bug came back that was fixed in 2.1 - closing an app with the back button will sometimes launch another previously closed app, but this time the 'ghost app' closes instantly :)

A lot of apps launch faster than usual on first run after cold boot, especially FB messenger, Words With Friends, and a few others.:highfive:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Formhault:
I'm not having any problems... But if there is room for improvement, why not? :)

I leave WPA/WPA2 (enhanced mode) on, since the other alternative is no encryption at all... Guess I'll switch to that and make good use of MAC filtering, just to squeeze out the best from the router :)

I can't uninstall system apps like Simple Explorer etc. Could it be related to the fact that I switched to ART? Tried with TB and Rom Toolbox.

Edit: solved. My superuser freaked out. Flashing SuperSU solved a problem.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] wonsky21:
First I couldn't uninstall apps, TB and Rom Toolbox freezed. Other apps were acting weird, they were just closing, without any popup, or freeze so hard that I had to long press power button to reboot. And after reboot I had optimizing apps popup again, what, as you know takes more time with art... And at this point my patience has ended.

I don't use any mods, all stock, I flashed only SuperSU to resolve TB problems. I did dirty flash from 2.1.

Maybe I'll try a clean flash after work with a better result, but for now ART doesn't look promising to me.

Hm I havent use TB since I learned things to backup different way (no backup at all) but I will try it.

Regarding some slow work I have sometimes issues with my photo app maybe I will try to reproduce on dalvik ( it is only saving bit longer and sometimes freezes - but it is not the stock app). Other apps are acting just ok.

Regarding the dirty flash I am dirty flashing since 1.9

Just flash the correct (i9505) modem through Odin. I have done it dozens of times, never any issues. But as always it's always good practise to have at least one nandroid (including EFS partition) on your sd just in case of ..............

A few tips: don't use the reboot in download mode from the power menu. Power down and boot into download using power/vol down.

In Odin open extracted modem file ".tar.(md5)" and flash as "PHONE"

It is open source. But the use of the exfat algorithm is protected by Microsoft. Only the software itself is free, not underlaying algorithm. It's a little bit confusing. Maybe that's the reason for the developer not to include it.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Formhault:
MGG = bootloader name. MK9 = modem name, actually XXUEMK9. They're different things. Same as firmware. Firmware can be XXUEMK5, modem can be XXUEMKF...

Think of MGG as being your BIOS version, and MK9 as being Windows 7. You can install Windows 8 at a later time, without touching the BIOS (leaving it MGG). :)

Regardless, nothing to worry about. Leave the bootloader alone, you don't wanna fiddle with it.

Text Secure out-of-the-box?

They say, CM10.2 (and later - CM11) will have Text Secure feature for sms/mms.

Will it be implemented to SlimKat?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Formhault:
As far as I know, CyanogenMod has made this possible by acquiring a license of some sort, from a company / group that was specialised in this. Aaaaaand, for it to work, both parties (sender and receiver) had to have it. So... good luck convincing all of your friends to jump ship over to CM and use it :).

I don't think it can be added in Slim, since... licensing... and even if it would, again, you'd have to convince everybody to use it.

I'm not too sure if slim uses optimised ones, but if they do they would most likely be the ones that CM now uses, which aren't the aforementioned ones - CM wont use them because they are proprietary, they use their own optimised ones, which i think aren't quite as optimised as the patches.

The size of each file is different in slimkat to the patches, thats all i know :)
