Couple of things I have noticed.

Sometimes the "Recent Panel" is not showing any previous apps. 9/10 times it works but every once in a while it will display "No Recent Apps". I can't seem to reproduce this. Just happens randomly and sorts itself out after a while.

Battery life in general isn't real bad, just not the same as stock. This is a bit hard to tell since I don't have hard numbers but it feels a touch worse. (Related, I now use the tab more thanks to this ROM and since audio no longer sucks. Could be a side effect of actually using for video now!)

One time I had the bottom right icon disappear in the dock. After re-adding it, a few hours later it came back and gave me an extra icon. I have only seen this once. It happened after first install and first night of charging.

Knock knock works!

Audio Works!

Smooth!

Thank you for all the work gone into this.

I stand corrected, looks like it has both Miracast and Slimport.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Linus_BE:
It's possible with an app like WidgetLocker or something similar.

Does the mic not work for Hangouts? Is this a known bug?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Stu C:
So, are neither working with this ROM?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Kholargol:
It's not specific to Mahdi's ROM but CM11. I've got the same problem both on my tab and my phone (both are pure CM11)
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] vergaril:
hey Guys!

excuse my ignorance..

I can create a user for each member of the family with this rom?

thanks.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Hibble:
Yes, you have to run the script attached below. I found this here: http://www.pocketables.com/2013/03/...d-10-1-and-some-other-android-4-2-2-roms.html

Place script in /data/ for example and then run it in terminal:

su
cd data
./mu.sh

Every time you flash a new ROM, you have to run this script. Fortunately user settings are saved ;)
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] vergaril:
Sorry

And for switch between users..

Sorry for my inglish am italian

This script only activates the missing "User" option in settings. Once you have created a second account, you can switch between them.

Looks good!

Enjoying the ROM!

Any way of getting some of the LG apps as flashable zips if we want to add back some functionality? Or are they not compatible because of frameworks being based on 4.2.2 on stock?

---------- Post added at 08:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 PM ----------

Also noticed newer ROM build dates for the other devices. Should we be expecting an update soon?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] mikelav456:
I know this might seem like a silly request to some, but can we please get smart cover functionality? Otherwise really loving the rom. Thank you so much.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] DracoPiece:
Can you make this to LG Optimus G?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Moose0704:
Yes actually we are missing out, ran into some build issues for the v500 when we rolled back to more AOSP on the camera and some other things, trying to work them out now, for now still very very stable so not wanting to give you guys any less than that ;)

LG apps will NOT work on AOSP builds sorry.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Moose0704:
Currently this is broken on AOSP builds, looking into it but don't expect it fast...
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Moose0704:
Sorry but no one on this team has this device, much like other devs if we do not have it we do not build it.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] jchenny:
So is Miracast confirmed as a unsolvable issue on all roms other than stock? Since this is the most important feature for my daily use...

[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] dsmitty166:

[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] DracoPiece:
how about doubletap2sleep?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] jchenny:
Can someone help to test if Miracast works in the latest version? I need this function for daily work, thanks a lot~
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] ViperPyro:
I used Nova launcher for this and it works fine
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Armpowered:
Nope and neither do USB audio and smart cover, with these functional this would be the perfect kitkat ROM (as far as I know these only work on the stock ROM and presumably Malladus).
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] jchenny:
Thanks so much for your reply, hopefully those can be fixed soon!
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] haasgo:
Someone must approve first that these functionalities work on the google play edition. If not, the aosp code is lacking code in general and we wont be able to have miracast. But due to the fact that google is promoting miracast it should somehow be there. Still, we need confirmation!
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] ANTRIK:
I tried to update and after I did It my sd card damaged. what should I do?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] indian84:
How does it work? Can you tell me...
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] NJ_RAMS_FAN:
what? weird.. where did you drop the new rom? internal memory? have you tried reformatting sd card?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] ViperPyro:
It is one of the default supported gesture options. I don't have it in front of me right now, but under the Nova settings, select the Gestures option and change the "on double tap" config to "lock screen." This will only work when you are on the home screen since this is only a Nova Launcher option, but it still comes in handy.

Hope that helps.

Changelog is a wip yet.

If I remember right, there were a few rollbacks that could have fixed this, but not promising as none of us have the capabilities to test.

[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Mercvtio:
OK, so I decided to switch from Malladus to Mahdi, 'cause some issues started to bugger me. So far, I really like it : it's smooth, clean, with a lot of customization. Great news for me : slimport HDMI works perfectly ! That was the only drawback I had with AOSP roms, and it's gone ! Mahdi is now my official new daily driver, and is probably going to be for a loooong time. Kudos to you !

One small thing though : some games, such as Angry Birds Go, won't install. Play Store says it's not compatible with my device, while it installed fine on Malladus and CM11. Anyone knows what the problem might be ?

Anyway, great job, keep up the good work and thank you for your dedication.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] whoamigriffiths:
Not sure why you are having problems with play store, usually it's because the lcd density has been changed in build prop.

There is an xposed plug in that is supposed to be able to get around play issues.

I didn't touch my dpi settings... And the problem arose with the first launch after a clean and fresh install. Don't know what can be causing that.

installed the xposed play store unlocked, but it didn't really work : I can now see my apps, but I get an error when installing. Well, I guess I'll have to sideload them.

Hi guys how's the battery life now? I was on the first build but couldn't get more than 2½ hours of screen time where I get 4½ hours on stock.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] whoamigriffiths:
I'm not on mahdi myself, I was more wondering aloud whether the dev has altered the dpi settings.

It should be at 320.

I'm actually going to try to get this rom flashed this evening so maybe I'll be more help then.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Mercvtio:
Just checked my build.prop, and it seems to be set at 270. Could be my Play Store Unlocker module's fault, though. Gonna try to disable it and change back to 320. I'll report later on.

Edit : just rebooted, and nothing changed. Icons definitely look bigger - and so I think the rom is set to 270dpi on launch - but my games still seem to be "not available for my device". I can't be the only one, can I ?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] vergaril:
Sorry .. But compass not work? ?

Inviato dal mio LG-V500 utilizzando Tapatalk
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] whoamigriffiths:
I'm a bit confused sorry. Have you actually tried the games with the build prop changed to 320?

I'm guessing the dev has dropped the setting to 270 just like the dev on slim rom. It's great having so much display real estate and it sorts the massive dock icons.

But I should try changing back to 320 and testing. If you have already, then my apologies and that's me out of ideas. I don't use my tablet for games so I'm not much use there sorry,

Good luck, rich
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Mauijpm:
Please delete.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Mercvtio:
Thank you for your time.

In fact, I already went from 270 to 320, and to 270 again. Everything runs equally well with both density, games included. My only issue is with the Play Store : it won't let me install some games, saying they are not compatible with my device, no matte what dpi I use. Strange thing is when I sideload these games, they run just well.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] dsmitty166:
Have you cleared your playstore cache and data after switching DPI?

The latest build comes with 270 as the default DPI. You will only see this if you are doing a clean flash. Otherwise, the LCD Density backup will backup your current DPI and restore it for you.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Mercvtio:
I can't believe I didn't think of it... I rebooted and rebooted again, yet it never occured to me I could wipe the play store data... Thank you, you are a effing genius.

One last request regarding magnetic unlock. When you open the cover the light comes on for the screen but the tablet does not unlock. If it is unlocked and you close the cover it closes the screen and locks it. This is not the default behavior. Can this be changed
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] DamiaNations:
What exactly did you do because I'm having the same issue as you. Did you install all the apps that you could first and then change the density and clear the play store? I did what was suggested and still can't install some apps
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] dsmitty166:
What version of twrp are you on??
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Mercvtio:
Well I fumbled a bit before it finally worked... I first installed all my apps, mainly restoring my titanium backups. Then I switched to 320dpi with a simple build.prop edit, cleared the play store data and cache, and rebooted. It somehow did the trick.

I'd guess you'd just need to edit the dpi, clear data and cache and reboot to get it done.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] jchenny:
MIRACAST Still not working, but I think I have found the main problem, that is the option button is missing when u enter setting - display - cast screen, where there should be an option button on the top right corner allows you to "ENABLE WIRELESS DISPLAY". So as long as the option button is added back, I think we should be good to go.

Search for "CAST SCREEN PROBLEM 4.4.2" in youtube and you should see what I mean.
