i dont know if you need the apps data as well or not

but probably it wont go for some apps like whatsapp etc

just use this app which i use all the time for wiping my data as well as system partition

extract apk from playstore, its a small app and just click on the apps within it and it will make an apk file in your sd/extractapk folder :good:

hope this is helpfull for you

or you can try the titanium backup method to revive the app backup
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] TheQuarterMile:
Use titanium backup or helium.. One click batch backup or restore of apps and app data
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] cenonmin:
The only think I don't like is having to manually restore the ROM settings after a factory reset. To many custom options to go through again and having to re-select sound settings for the ROM and the apps as well since even TB won't do this.

I did have the DPI changed to 280. Changed it back to 320 and now the Kernel Tweaker is working.

So if I change the DPI to anything other than 320 the Kernel Tweaker will force close?

You just answered to your question.

just use xposed app settings and set dpi as 320 for that app ;)

Because keyboard is forceclosing all the time and back button doesn't work on latest build for me (clean flash)

Anybody else with those problems?

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Mahdi786:
Kernel tweaker has a problem when using holo_dark and a lowered DPI, with dark ui it works with any DPI. Its probably a derp from my side which I will try and fix for the next update. I'm not going to keep repeating this so if anyone reads this and see's someone else post the same problem please can you quote my post.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Zenzic:
Can you have a custom image for the lock screen blur? Don't seem to have that choice :/

Is there still an option for custom led notifications?

For Mahdi.

1. Please don't remove omni-switcher from future releases. Not overly keen on slim nor default.

2. Could you include soft reboot into the reboot options.

3. (Unsure if currently available) Include custom image into lock screen blur.

Basically the only features I use of gravity box, you ROM provides everything else. Good job man.

Dude you gotta read the settings ...... they are right there when you get to Lockscreen, WTF its even visible in that image above

Just a word of advice, please don't complain about download speeds. We are doing this for free, the mirror site has been generously given to use for use, but it's shared hosting, not a dedicated VPS. The main server is a great server, but doesn't have a fat enough pipe for when it's hit hard.

If you want to complain about speed, then do something about it. Hosting is not cheap. I will not ever ask for donations as that's not why we do this, however, if you want fast speeds for downloads, then we need to get a dedicated VPS server. Which will cost us $30 - $200 a month.

The crazy thing is, if 10% of all our users, donated $1, that would give us a dedicated VPS for a year. Crazy huh? Anyways, I download right from my build box, so I don't have to worry about download speeds, the only reason why I'm writing this, is honestly, I'm sick of people always complaining about download speeds when there are simple things that they could do to fix this.

BTW please don't take this post directed just to you. This is directed to everyone who has complained about download speeds.

Please PM me if you want to discuss this more, or if you want to help. Thanks!

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] moizsami:
I completely agree with you..and am sorry I didnt know all that.

What I meant was if somebody from the users is allowed to upload a mirror on sites like google drive,mega or dropbox it would be easier for some users to download...and I also know mirrors are not allowed here so no worries...Thanks.

Can you go to the market and buy me some beer?

Can you go to the mall and bring me a pizza?

Can you go to work every day for me?

Now, how do you feel? Well exactly this is how Mahdi feels when he reads your post.

So to answer your questions:

Led customizations is under "Display" settings.

OmniSwitch is just an apk that you can install as a system apk, set the right permissions and reboot.

Why do you need a soft reboot?

Custom image is not possible for lock screen blur. Is either one or another.

Peace.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] kufikugel:
Thing is that clear all is a bad user behaviour ;) thats the reason google never and will never implement it. The system gets without need under stress....system need to do suddenly a lot work with no benefit due that linux/android is handling it on its own. On top ppl think they will free there memory with it (as the ram bars suggest to the user) but the truth is nothing happens lol. When you do a MAT analyze of memory you will see that the memory is still in use. Just the reference is changing. So it gets freed when the system next time needs it. Exactly the same happens if you do not remove it from recents. Only difference is that the process get killed by the system to remove references before it is starting to free it.

The problem mainly is that user especially if the user base is growing forget how much power and band with a server needs to handle it. Especially on release peaks. When SlimROMs started we were on some private servers. They were killed faster then you can look. Then we rented some + added mirrors to Google etc. Result was that Google blocked us for lifetime due that we produced to much load lmao.

Well user base growed so we could install and rent a bunch of own servers to handle it. But as said here....this is expensive. You do not want to know how much monthly costs we have to cover this ;) well and without that user are donating this would be simply not possible. And even with 1000000 user we have the donations are just enough to pay the 4 build boxes 3 web servers + gerrit + website wiki bugtracker etc.

So yes ppl should realize if they want more or a ROM and see to grow they need to help if they are able to. It is simply not doable with a normal income the devs have and at least just do it for fun as a hobby ;)

Greetings to all, I want to congratulate the developers for their excellent work, I have no errors, it is very smooth and stable.

the only change I made was changing the kernel because neither has the rather ugly nexus factory colors, then you install the [KERNEL] * Matr1x * v12.0 | KK - 4.4, is what I like.

if you're interested make any changes, here I leave the link.

http://xdaforums.com/nexus-4/orig-development/kernel-matr1x-v12-5-kk-4-4-t2007231

* clarify, I only change the kernel colors, and look for the 12.0.

in case you want to change the colors otherwise I leave the primary at 255 or 100%, and the Gamma Group 1 all in 25, 2 in group 4 and group 3 at 66.

and you will notice a difference more enjoyable, if your Nexus is like mine, with very warm colors.

Thanks for your attention.

[MENTION=4593553]Mahdi786[/MENTION] - is it possible to include an option to Disable "Show Notifications" for the Kernel Tweaker app? I don't want to disable the superSU notifications for everything, i just want to disable them for this app since every time i reboot, the toasts with all the settings set on boot appear (and I have quite a lot - UV tables, etc).

It will be useful to have such an option in the kernel tweaker. Otherwise, great small application!

By the way the rom is fantastic. Tnx

Probably you're right but earlier it was ok. Problem is from last 2 versions of mahdi-rom.
