Guys,

this is a Bug?????

happy Weekend!

SlimKat 5.2
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kantjer:
No it's a local error, I use exchange without issues.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] AzureShadow:
I flashed 5.0 a week or two ago and had major problems with the bluetooth and compass. In that both were not working at all for me. Is anyone having similar problems on the newer 5.4? I really like this ROM but both bluetooth and an accurate compass make up the majority of how I use my phone and I just can't be without those.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kantjer:
Never had any BT problems, but there are many BT version's in use on devices so it can always be that a particular (older) BT device isn't working.

As for compass, it works perfect on slim, only the compass implementation on 4.4.x ROM's is different than on older Android versions.

If you have a compass app that hasn't been updated for a while there might be issues.

Compass on "GPS status" for example is working fine.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] AzureShadow:
Specifically the bluetooth thing I was trying to connect to is the Motorola T505 (Amazon Link). I have never had a problem with it on any other ROMs or bluetooth devices. With the 5.0 release it wouldn't even find the device.

As for the compass, I actually was using GPS status and it wasn't working for me. I guess I will just have to try out 5.4 and see if it has fixed anything for me.

I have also BT issues, on car, on my BT headphones and with my polar BT sensor.... I'm on stock kernel, how can you explain so much trouble? This Rom rocks seriously but BT issue make me really upset.... If somebody has a tip! Is flashing another kernel the solution?

Freezes

I think the freezes may be something to do with gnl - it would be interesting to see if anyone has freezes that doesn't have gnl installed.

I am back using slim AIO Gapps now (without gnl and a lot of other stuff taken out) I am so far freeze free :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ph3n0mII:
Weekly 5.4 running very nicely..nice amount of bugs squashed :)

I have some questions, (sorry, if i've asked some before):

Is there a way to show normal play store icon when TRDS is enabled?

Is there a way to get inverted rendering working in built in aosp browser?

Is the included aosp browser the latest available build?

Any chance of getting preview thumbnail in gallery sometime in the future?

Any chance of getting static quick settings in gallery sometime in the future?

Any progress on the 'dialpad not opening the first time' bug? It's fixed on CM11, OmniRom, and unofficial SlimSaberKat ;)

Any chance to get vibration control added to kernel sometime in the future?

Any chance to get status bar swipe brightness control sometime in the future?

Any chance to get brightness mode toggle QS tile sometime in the future?

Any chance to get user profiles implemented sometime in the future (to make the user switcher QS tile functional)?

Any chance of getting SlimOTA working sometime in the future?

Any chance of changing something so that people can freeze or remove LatinIME.apk, NfcNci.apk, PicoTts.apk, and UserDictionaryProvider.apk without breaking the rom sometime in the future?

Any way to change the LTE QS tile to 4G instead?

Any chance of getting Quick Record QS tile working sometime in the future?

Any chance sometime in the future for the 'double tap and hold lock screen handle for torch' to optionally be a toggle so you don't have to hold it the whole time?

Is there a way to have cyanogenmod's cLock lock screen instead of dashclock? If I just grabbed the latest version and pushed it to/system/app and set perms and removed dashclock, would it work properly?

I noticed that sometimes exiting an app with back button will still open some other random app sometimes (even one that hasnt been opened in since reboot)..I thought that was fixed a while ago..or maybe i need more sleep :cowboy:

Also, regarding one of my posts a week or 2 ago regarding the large/abnormal delay for dashclock to load at boot..i tested, it doesn't happen on cyanogenmod, omnirom or unifficial slimsaberkat, on those roms it takes ~5 to load after boot, not ~30 seconds. Just some food for thought :cool:

Anyway, as usual, great work! and a big thanks to everyone involved! :good::good::highfive::victory::cool:

*Edit:

Dirty-flashing slim AIO gapps instead of minimal gapps fixed the dashclock slow loading and restored the normal play store icon :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Bejda:
Hello :)

I don't see it in your last wishes list ;) but i remember this one.

I have this if you dare to give it a try lol:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52943321&postcount=5515

Disable/re-enable HOME=WAKE takes only a Hot reboot to be effective (about 30 seconds) and survive rom update through /data/local script.

Only ****ty thing is that it needs SuperSu to work as really intended, the strange thing with built-in supersuser is that after a reboot the app can't read anymore some files it needs that lies on a sdcard folder..can't read it anymore after reboot until you open a file manager :confused: (RootExplorer in my case, files gets readable by the app again after reboot right after i open RootExplorer but not before... re-:confused: )

A pure WTF story but i can't find why, works perfect with SuperSu though so be it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ph3n0mII:
Cool, i'll make a backup and have a muck around with it later.

I wasn't aware you could change vibration strength without support for it built into the kernel.

Sounds like, at least for you, or just in the particular case for this apk, /system isn't getting mounted rw properly for user until Root Explorer opens and requests it to be, something like that..interesting though...

Just curious, do you install it as a normal apk, or push it to /system/app and set its perms to rw- r-- -r--?

There is something a slightly amiss with the built-in supersu though, and Titanium Backup complains about it, but it still works perfectly :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Bejda:
Well vibration value file exists just as some others files like capacitive Buttons Backlights but sometimes the thing missing is the interface I'd say (which we have now for backlights + delay).

Some of these "missing features" will probably come very soon or are even maybe already merged at this very moment (on the fly dpi change is under work for instance) but i don't know why Vibrations strength take that much long to be included.I was pretty sure it would came with next SlimKat build following introduction of "stock" kernel but no..well it probably isn't a top priority,i can't see any other reason.

For my "app" issue with superuser i really don't get it. Actually after reboot and before I launch RootExplorer it does work fine.It does write new values to /system, /data , /sdcard or wherever (made of shell scripts that mount desired partition anyway) but just can't read the sdcard/SlimAdds folder that i use to store some variables values (was the better and faster way i found for the app displays variables changes dynamically immediately).

Actually the only **** that may happens (and i didn't want ****s to happens cause of me lol so I explained) is this:

You reboot>app can't read variables (until i launch RootExplorer then)>you use dpi changer>it writes "ro.sf.lcd_density=%NewDensity" to your build.prop.. ****ty isn't it? :laugh:

No such issue with SuperSu.

The apk is package installer,a /data/app.

About superuser generally despite i'm of course totally happy with SuperSu,love Chainfire and all i spent some times telling users by here that SlimKat had perfectly working root access,just disabled by default under Developers Options and that SuperSu was only needed if desired/preferred.

But there,in my very specific case i did notice a different and unexpected behavior.

On another side while making my "app" i noticed that SuperSu was a very little longer launch su commands than superuser but i guess disabling prompt pop-up solves it as stated on SuperSu OP (nothing noticeable anyway).

nfc tile

hi [MENTION=5047159]Tylog[/MENTION],

just a very minor thing - the NFC tile is not working properly, to really turn NFC on/off I must go to its settings menu and do it there
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ph3n0mII:
Cool. i'm wondering if you could just add a command to launch root explorer as a hidden/background app and kill it right away, (or with a short delay to make sure) to make the whole thing work reliably..

I can wait however long it takes for normal vib control to be implemented into rom, there's bigger fish to fry for now :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Bejda:
Would probably work for me but i can't handle others users file managers and i don't know if it would behaves the same.

Anyway all this are just little tweaks that will soon become useless, i better stop OT with this lol.

Thank you,was a pleasure to discuss about it :)

Review

Hey there,

Just a quick review about the ROM :

It's great ! I love the looks of it it's smooth and fast and customization features are DEADLY !

Two negative points though : Contacts FC.... I'll figure this one out I think as it doesn't seem to be a ROM issue.

And the battery..... I just installed the ROM so I'll let it settle but so far....16hrs on battery when on AOSP i had about 28 hours ....

Wait and see !

Anyway great work !

That's a roast notification... Its on all 4.4 roms there's an xposed module to make it go back to the jelly bean version though personally I love the new toast notification
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] s3icc0:
Lol ... It is connected with some app u use ... And it is telling you to press back to exit the app

Isnt that the file explorer from cyanogenmod? As this is part of the explorer

And cyanogenmod explorer is not included in this rom therefore it is 3rd party

My fault ... It is the slim explorer and it is part of that app ....
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] krinyo75:
U like it...I don't ...especially when it freezes and holds on the screen.. and only a restart helps to disappear :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] CallumMarks77:
Never had that issue must be the app your using like the guy a above said

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] AzureShadow:
So I flashed 5.4 and went to newest KT kernal, and that seemed to do the trick.

Bluetooth now seems to work, although it does seem to go in and out kind of frequently. My compass actually works now too, although it takes it a good 5+ minutes before it actually gets an accurate direction.

And that is a good thing, but when something has been developed well, it may would be a great saving time trick to use it. But I'm not a developer so I'll stick to their choice.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] AzureShadow:
Well erm... yeah. It is a heck of a lot better then when I tried 5.0 on the stock kernal though a week or 2 ago. Before my phone wouldn't even find other bluetooth devices and now it at least connects and plays. It occasionally just drops for 5 seconds or so and then reconnects. Is it annoying? Yeah. Can I live with it? Yeah. As for the compass it was locked at 0 degrees for me before and it seems to be working fine now, just takes a while.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Bejda:
The word "kang" shouldn't be used all the way,cherry-picking some code part to implement some nice proven features is something different.

But yeah SlimTeam is not a "cherry-pick'em all" team, that's for sure :)

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] __Miguel_:
Hello, guys.

I don't know if this is a Slim thing, or an Android thing. In any case, maybe someone can help me out.

Currently, I'm on Stable 4.0 (haven't had much time to update, I'll get to it), but as far as I can tell, nothing has changed on 5.0 on this particular issue I'm having, so it shouldn't matter.

About a month ago, or so, I bought the Samsung Multimedia Dock (Audio Out, 3x USB Host, HDMI Out). It works wonderfully with SlimKat, there is no loss of functionality I can notice (except for the fact there's not a "Home" key on the keyboard, but that's besides the point).

I am, however, experiencing a bit of frustration when it comes to audio: as soon as I connect an HDMI sink, my phone routes ALL sounds to the HDMI channel, regardless on whether there is an audio cable connected to the 3.5mm jack or not, and regardless of whether I want it or not. That wouldn't be too problematic if it weren't for one tiny little detail: my current HDMI sink is an HDMI monitor WITHOUT audio capabilities.

Which means that, as soon as I plug it in, all audio is lost, and I have no way of telling the phone which audio output I want to use. Which kind of sucks, to be honest.

So, my question is this: is there any way to control (maybe through an app?) which audio output is used, instead of it being auto-selected by the phone?

Also, since I'm asking, does anyone know of a way to force landscape mode for ALL apps, including the launcher, when the phone is docked? Nova keeps defaulting to phone mode, even after I lock orientation to landscape...

Thanks in advance for any help you guys can give me :)

Cheers

Miguel

Talking about notifications, it would be nice if the Slim notifications become narrower like in TW Foms.

Right now, with any app generating notifications to not be killed, the notification area usually needs to be scrolled down in my case.

have you managed to solve this thing?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] _Sofos_:
Nope, not yet. Rare, but still there.. no matter what Rom, kernel or settings I've tried.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] erghetto:

i'm trying to understand if it comes from here or not.

i should try to wipe everything with odin and then again with a custom rom..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] _Sofos_:
I think all of them had the slim recents option available. Can't remember if it happened with Cm as well.

I think I can reproduce it btw.. playing a movie via BsPlayer in window mode while writing something in Evernote with Swype. Takes about 5-15 secs and.. freeze (sound keeps playing).

Tried several settings and ram tweaks, still no solution.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] erghetto:
i don't know if it's releated to slim recent. this feature is present since much time, and freeze have started after a bit of time later..

it could also be something else..

the point is that it doesn't happens when we do some particular action, so taking a logcat is not simple.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Bejda:
Not that I'm able to read logs but i guess some logcats would probably help,after about one hundred posts about freezes i'm not sure we've seen one.

I would simply use a monitoring app (mine is OsMonitor) and export the log to sd soon after freeze occurs (plus OsMonitor displays Date/Hour/minutes/seconds by default).
