Someone reported this a few posts ago, I think it's caused by PA actually changing things that are patched by the dalvik thingie which causes the ROM not to boot.

There is a more precise answer in this thread if you want one should not be that far.

That's an issue with GEL as far as I'm aware

---------- Post added at 05:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:27 PM ----------

There were changes made to optimise the booting process. These apparently conflict with the dalvik patches.

I'm getting the same thing here too on B2 and I seriously doubt the issue is GEL alone. Does not happen when reverting to stock. I'm gonna go back to Nova for a while so I can quickly restore if it happens. Love that feature.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] om22:
Haven't ever got that issue and i flshed around between CM nad PA many times.

I never lost any widget. Using GEL.

Only thing that happens is that sometimes after using immersive/pie mode the GEL has 6 lines of apps in the drawer instead of 5.

Anyone?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jabza:
I get that sometimes too if I have it enabled, but I'm never sure if it was just me swiping on the wrong spot or a bug. I generally use my phone with my right hand, so I occasionally chalk it up to me just not reaching far enough.

For that reason, though, I turned off the quick pulldown and it still occasionally goes straight to quick settings. Go figure.

I'm definitely having the "GNL" (Google now launcher, NOT "GEL") issue that I lose an entire homrscreen after a reboot , very annoying, also when changing from immersive mode to normal or viceversa the app tray changes from 5 to 6 rows and its very annoying
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] johnannis:
Its also GEL (I think its the right) from Google Experience Launcher

But for me there is no issue at all

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] VoluntaryMan:
It's actually called Google Experience Launcher, it just has Google Now as part of it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GeekMcLeod:
On beta 2, pie keeps going back to the bottom randomly. I have to toggle immersive on then off to get it back on the right. This is off a clean install with only PA gapps, gapps add ons and Franco r35.

Don't know what other info to give or if any log would help.

as far as I know, Google Experience Launcher is the name the 'internet' came up with for the whole swipe left for google now feature. im not sure which source originally came up with the name, but that's what stuck
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] kv1dr:
Well...even the one of the Activity in Google Search(Google Launcher for Kitkat) is "com.google.android.launcher.GEL", so I don't think it's just "internet" thing. We should stop with offtopic now.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bog3nator:
No it isn't.. Google renamed it to Google now launcher
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] om22:
Calm down guys. It doesn't change anything if you call it GEL or GNL.

Anyone will know what you mean. And why is this OT? GEL is the default launcher included in PA.

EDIT:

Did someone already report the bug that GEL sometimes has 6 lines of apps after using immersive mode?

If not I'll do so later when I'm at home.

Commits Causing Dalvik Patch Boot Loop

Hi,

If I use the Dalvik Optimization patch http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2537299 I get an endless boot loop. I found out it is because of the ROMs commits that cause it to boot faster I believe.

Any chance the commits could be removed, I'd rather have a faster ROM the dalvik patch provides then a bit speedier boot.

Peace. :confused:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] VoluntaryMan:
So, first of all, almost certainly not.

Past that, this is the wrong place to ask for features since this is a device-specific forum. Go onto their bug tracker and ask there if you really must.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] om22:
What do you call a bit speedier? Th boot speed nearly doubled. Also why do people need these tweaks :silly: If they made such a difference and were nice to implement the PA team had already implemented them. But it seems they are not.

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 5 mit Tapatalk
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] TrenchKato:
Doubt it. Those patches are not even originally for our device. Try using art if you want things to be a bit snappier.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Pirateghost:
Only the stock package. So it is not a rom included app. Some people prefer the modular packages. Since it is not included, it seems hard to understand how the ROM would affect the launcher that we literally have zero control over.

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Circaflex:
Build your own version of PA. Pretty rude of you to decide a rom needs something because you want it/deem it a better solution. Those patches are nothing but gimmicks anyways to be honest, they were not meant for our device, and immediately raise red flags because of the high benchmark boost.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] KedarWolf:
Seems I upset some here, it was just a suggestion, other ROMs people ask/suggest about features quite often. I'll put a bowl of Xanax on the forum table for those that are so freaked out.

Lots of info in the Dalvik optimization thread of ROMs being speedier and more responsive with the patches, seemed like a no-brainer that a more responsive faster ROM would take precedent over faster boot times. There are ROMs that have the patches built in because they are so useful.

Peace :/
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Circaflex:
You do realize any of the patches worth while have been implemented into many of the roms already, making those flash-able zips pointless.

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] TrenchKato:
Just from reading the description in gravity box. It says not to use with custom Roms.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jabza:
That's just because since features in custom ROMs might interfere with the ones implemented in GravityBox.

For those of you who care, they are working on a wireless power saver feature. Its in the open section of gerrit, but it doesn't seem to be very high on their priority list.

Edit: to be clear, I think its reasonable that its not a high priority thing right now. PA already has pretty fantastic battery life and they have a lot of pressure from the community pushing for their "trademark" features, like their new hover feature. I'm just trying to help inform all y'all.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bog3nator:
First why take away commits made to improve the phone. 2nd the dalvik patch is not made for the n5.

Pa is doing a great job and your asking then to do the opposite for something that works for faster benchmarks only.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] TrenchKato:
Thanks that makes sense. But my battery really does suffer while I'm at home in a crappy LTE area. And I'm fine with the PA team working on higher priorities. This is there baby. Besides the Intelli3G app works fine for me.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Skywalker.00:
People giving you a hard time... Don't sweat it, man.

If you want snappiness you should use ART. That's what it's there for. I've not come across any incompatible apps, and most gapps packages support ART if not all of them. These dalvik and bionic patches, if they aren't meant for your device, they really shouldn't be flashed. Not to mention, like you said, these kind of things are being included in some ROMs by default.

The guys at PA, though I don't know them personally, seem like they have a solid grasp on what it takes to build a damn good ROM.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nightrainbow:
I agree, This guys at paranoid are building a pretty fast and stable rom.

If you're concerned about every ounce of performance on the phone, I would start looking on custom kernels rather than dalvik patches/

Or use art, since the phone since to be faster with it/

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] abra5umente:
Why don't you just build your own rom from their source and remove those commits? A lot of people like the fast start up and PA aren't going to remove a feature people love so one person can use a patch.

How can I

A) Add icon for kill all apps in recent apps, like in the other Roms

B)Hide toogle in Quick Toogles when I press them, for example, hide quick settings when I press WiFi icon

...WITHOUT XPOSED? (by the way, I tried gravity and it doesn't work...)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] kv1dr:
A) When you click on recent apps button it changes to "kill" all recent apps(3 horizontal lines). So if you click that button again, it will swipe-out all apps. Screenshoot

This is my feedback on using pie, this is not a big issue for me but thought of mentioning it. When I pull down the notification bar down after my use when I try to pull up the panel back most of the time unknowingly pie comes up as both the triggers to pull up notification bar and pie are almost on the same area this is sometimes affect my user experience. Just thought of mentioning.

This is not a bug. If you swipe up from the middle of the notification drawer it closes it without opening pie.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] raptir:
Yeah, you can grab it from a little bit higher on the notification drawer, or if you grab it from closer to the corners it works.

Also, if PIE does come up, you could just use the back or home buttons and that will hide the notification drawer as well.

Nexus5/PA4.1 Beta2/Franco r35

Please read a few pages. The PA team have decided to rebuild PA from the ground up, because KitKat gave them the opportunity to do so. They've had to pull out many of their features to do so, but they're mostly all being put back in, just not right now.

If you want a smaller navbar then install xposed with GravityBox. Or build your own module. :)
