Well, we don't really need the fancy transitions just the functionality of the Android L though. Thank you for making this awesome ROM btw.
[LG Optimus Black] raduku009:
[MENTION=4833385]Evisceration[/MENTION] Wow the new kernel is great, the ROM seems more smooth but almost all ram is used, do you know any quick fix to tweak the ram? cause sometimes its getting laggy and the effects arent smooth. Thanks again
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
yes, just ignore the ram.

android frees ram automatically if it needs more.

unless you arent running an app that uses 200-300mb ram, you are good to go.

android caches apps in background to launch them faster and drops these caches, if it gets low on ram.

though you could also try playing with the KSM settings (Device Control -> Extras -> Kernel Samepage Merging) and change the interval from 1500 to 1000 or even 500 (which is the recommended value for low ram devices)

but note, KSM eats a bit of CPU and the lower the interval the more cpu it may use.

play around with these values to find your optimal point.

im constantly trying and testing different values and if i found good ones, i make them default.

please be aware, the OB is not that powerful. while gingerbread used little to none animations, kitkat is full of them. i give my best to work around that, but im really not a wizard :)
[LG Optimus Black] raduku009:
Ok,thank you, i am aware that OB is not a high end device and that's why i love this rom...cause you just added magic in it. xD
[LG Optimus Black] ptxpaulo:
Ok .... everything points to the goal...

We now only need GPS working (I speak for myself of course...).

Now fully working bluetooth (last nigtly).

Fully working camera and video (720p)

Thanks again...
[LG Optimus Black] raduku009:
[MENTION=4833385]Evisceration[/MENTION] Twitch app does not work properly,videos are not smooth and sound is very very bad, why is this? Thanks
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
thats the place where you can discuss non development related things http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2800031

i cant ensure that every of these billions of apps work how they should, especially not without any logs.

its like i call my doctor and say "im sick, what can i do?"
[LG Optimus Black] rellagher:
Video recording at 720p works! Man you are THE MAN.
[LG Optimus Black] latief.makhdoomi:
you can use greenify app,it hibernates apps in background thus may help u to free up some RAM.
[LG Optimus Black] infernus42:
Hi Nameless team, I don't know if anyone else has noticed this problem, but as of nightly 20140701, something seems to have broken with USSD code operations. Whenever I key in a *xxx# number, it doesn't bring back the menu like it used to. It just shows this screen, for ages (sometimes goes on for more than 15 minutes) and I have to reboot the phone to get it working properly.

Anyone else encountered this? Any help is appreciated. Thanks
[LG Optimus Black] jantdroid:
Dude, you're a wizard already.. A great one.
[LG Optimus Black] Sobralobo:
I'm not sure if he already answered it some time ago but I'm quite sure he's focusing on a fully stable and working rom.

Btw [MENTION=4833385]Evisceration[/MENTION], thanks for continuing development of this phone !

P.S : is there a way to know when the build will end ? I mean, I tried to understand what the heck is going on Jenkins but I'm lost. :P
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
ehm yeah, its done when its done haha xD

our jenkins is weird, has its own life.

goes mad with his 2 slaves a 16 cores

Sent from my GT-I9505
[LG Optimus Black] Sobralobo:
Ahahah. :P Yeah I'm understanding it a little better know but sometimes he does weird things.

Omg was watching the build output of the d800 and saw "<jumoog> echo "suck my d****" XD

EDIT : Seems that the builds failed.
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
yes it was an upstream change that made p970 fail.

conflicted with one of my patch for audio, reverted should work fine now.

yeah, that was an irc conversation haha.

above i added a note too though. ;P
[LG Optimus Black] Arcanium:
i cant find the 20140127 build

when i go to downloads in http://sourceforge.net/projects/namelessrom/files/p970/

the latest build in P970 parent folder is 20140126

so im not sure where to get the 20140127 build with audio and systemui fixed, enlight me
[LG Optimus Black] matshch:
Read previous messages, it's not builded yet by Jenkins server, it was on upgrade :D
[LG Optimus Black] Arcanium:
thats good new then, if it WAS on upgrade it means it has already upgraded :)

ETA ETA ETA :)

cant wait to get my hands on this baby
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
ETA? its there when its there ;)

we finished setting up jenkins, we now have 2 servers, each 8 cores and 32gb ram and 2TB disk space.

should deliver nightlies faster.

the initial setup needed some testing and debugging, but its ok now :)

oh btw, there wont be a 20140127 then, it skips directly to 28 :P
[LG Optimus Black] Arcanium:
i figured,anyway, from what i have been reading on thsi forum, you are doing a great job, keep it up, donations coming when google checkoutpays me :)
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
thsi? some chinese forum? :D

haha, thanks, thats too kind :)

all donations are going straight to the server costs, such machines arent for free, unfortunatly :D
[LG Optimus Black] Sobralobo:
Oh no I missed your note ! :P That was really funny though eheheh.

EDIT : Woops now I saw that --> The next time you **** the server, WITHOUT backing up the scripts, ill kill you Kilian! - Alex ahahah

EDIT 2 : [MENTION=4833385]Evisceration[/MENTION] Seems like something went wrong even though it says success at the end ?
[LG Optimus Black] matshch:
Looks like it will be 20140129 :D
[LG Optimus Black] ptxpaulo:
He!He!He... it's not easy...

So many souls waiting... for the miracle.

I'm one of them.

:D
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
yes sorry, jenkins played up :P

but its finishing now :)

should be up in some minutes
[LG Optimus Black] ptxpaulo:
After all... you are more awake than all of us...

[LG Optimus Black] ptxpaulo:
I feel like my childs when i finaly gave them the game they wanted... HAPPY as never before...

It has audio... it works... Thank you. Now I realy can help to improve your work.

testing...........
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
glad youre happy, it makes me smile :)

now hardware composer and camera left as major bugs :)

Sent from my GT-I9505
[LG Optimus Black] Arcanium:
isnt HW composer supose to compose better kinda like fix the lags on 3d and 2d render,

on nameless rom i set to use HW accel on 2d and it runs perfectly a game im developing with has about 80 drawcalls, at 20 fps, for this milestone phone its great, runs slower on other roms , unless zeus :P

but if u say its broken then i believe you im not a rom cooker

cant wait to see what kind of preformance/smoothness we gonan get hence its fixed
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
its not actually "broken" but not included at all as it causes bootloops ;p

if you fire up logcat and open the camera you can see it says wouldnt attach to window.

i think if the hwc is fixed, we are laying the base for the camera as well, as on the first builds where HWC was included, all worked fine.

Sent from my GT-I9505
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
we commited some patches regarding USSD for this nightly, but it didnt build yet because CM merged a lot to repositories during the night when the nightlies were buliding and the whole build broke.

just got home, will clean up that mess and start nightlies again

but still not as good as dumbledore
[LG Optimus Black] raduku009:
Battery drain is pretty high...i just did a couple of phone calls and 20% just drained in 1 hour
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
battery drain is high if you are using wifi, we still work on the new drivers.

once we got all functions up and running, we track down the memory usage.

its pretty useless to optimize it while all things are still not done, because our changes may affect several things and then we have to start from the beginning again.
[LG Optimus Black] pkb_always4u:
Well, I dont mean anything bad but want to know when a built is completed? Each nightly fixes something and breaks something else. It goes so and forth. For a daily driver which one to use?

Then if everything goes smooth, another CM11 update and it goes again with broken ROM.

I am asking this coz I have a very very slow connection and data limit. Downloading each time whole pack is really a fight to win.

I support you!
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
so what is broken for you?

if you dont heavily use USSD the previous ones are fine.

its just fun that everyone complains if something is broken but dont say a word if something is fixed (eg the hardware key lights) so you only see the negative things.

people search for bugs and report them, if one isnfixed they search farther and report those. thats how it works and im really happy that people report problems.

you could wait for a stable release or a EOL release, which is approximatly when android L goes live.

Nightlies are early previews to help sorting out problems. :)

you could wait for a few days and see what people report.

current known major bugs are GPS is bad, as always (AGPS works better), and the Wifi driver drains a bit as its quiet old but we work on the new one.
[LG Optimus Black] pkb_always4u:
Glad you replied, I am only asking which one to use for a daily drive. Didnt test for a long (last one with weak bluetooth).

Thanks
[LG Optimus Black] jantdroid:
But as good as Merlin. <3 hahaha
[LG Optimus Black] sekhar13515:
Now, is it stable ROM for daily usage ?

What are the present major bugs that to be resolved ?
[LG Optimus Black] Sobralobo:
I actually saw this but couldn't go earlier to tell you thank you for fixing it (when I had read the changelog I was like OMFG they did it! :P), sorry Q.Q

Personnally the only negative I have is the battery life even without wifi but that may be caused by the phone age itself. ;) Everything else is WOW, really that's amazing. I'm even wondering if I should try to sell my Lumia 925 for a Nexus 5 since you do some magic on this too :( (being able to dual boot WP8.1 and Android would be the best but hey haha).
[LG Optimus Black] Noobonic:
Great job with the 20140703 nightly guys! Is it just me, or am I seeing more free RAM since the 20140702 build? Two minor things however, The recents RAM bar hides the RAM usage. I toggle the option and it comes back up, but once you lock the screen and unlock it again, the RAM usage goes away. The RAM usage bar sometime does not show. 2nd, the non-intrusive dialog reverts to checked even if you unchecked it.

USSD codes now work again! Thanks!
[LG Optimus Black] neurotr:
Hi im using old 20140411 version. To get latest nightly do what do I have to clear?
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
best you do a full wipe
[LG Optimus Black] smy00oo:
hi

which gapps do you use?

i flashed latest 4.4.4 minimal gapps anl play store dosnt load.

what is the problem?
[LG Optimus Black] raduku009:
Holy cow! Man, this kind of ROM's are very rare (same to the devs) , the most favorite devs (and best on this forum imho) are Huexxx and Evisceration(and some others that i forgot xD).. I don't know how they see things in programming but they are awesome and so are the ROMs. 20140703 nightly is so good, almost everything works (except that i need to post logs cause Twitch doesnt work properly, and i dont know how to report with a log lol) , also the battery. But hey, Good Job Evisceration! I love your work.
[LG Optimus Black] axljohn:
are you on latest nightly (4.4.4)? is that a clean install (wipe data)?
[LG Optimus Black] infernus42:
Hi, just wanted to report the USSD codes are now working again. Thanks for quick fix. :highfive:
[LG Optimus Black] GPaul:
Can you "upgrade" the appearance to something like this ?
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
no, sorry

L will be here, when its here.

no need to destroy immersion because we want some parts to look like L.

on present times we are still on Holo, with API 21 we will be on L
[LG Optimus Black] raduku009:
with what program you open the change logs? notepad++ doesnt seem to work

https://api.nameless-rom.org/changelog/p970

example of todays nightly (20140705): https://api.nameless-rom.org/changelog/p970/20140705

or download the changelog and open it in your webbrowser (styling may differ due missing CSS and JavaScript files)
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
ok, this weekend was a creativity weekend.

new functionality got added.

smart cover support (unfortunatly the p970 doesnt have one...) and providers for the rom.

with providers i mean a central place where the system, apps, etc can fetch data and use it.

i added a weather provider, which supports 48 different weather types (and 1 error type ;p), screenshots attached.

this weather provider is used at the smart cover.

and now comes the real question, if you would like to have a place, where you can check for the weqther quickly, where would it be?

statusbar, notification panel (similar to the brightness slider in the notification bar) or whereever?

please let me know :)

(and dont worry, it doesnt eat performance or battery, all requests are timed, can be even disabled and are cached)

[LG Optimus Black] rellagher:
I guess for the weather I would like in the notification drawer, like google now for example.

But to be honest, with this phone I try to keep it as simple possible because of CPU and Ram.

Nameless really saved this phone. Have you guys noticed you are working for a greener planet? I would've thrown this phone to the garbage if it wasnt for this rom. Keep it up!
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
as said above, these changes dont affect performance, is it ram or cpu, at all as its all cached and optimized, so dont worry about that.

also as every feature, its 100% optional to use :)

same for me, i just kept and even bought more second hand p970's for the community
[LG Optimus Black] raduku009:
Everytime when i pick up my phone from the pocket or from the desk (sharply), the phone wakes up without even touching any button, i just grab it and boom , the screen is on. Is this intended if yes i would like to disable this feature or even play a little with it. Thank you!
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
Settings -> Lockscreen -> Lockscreen notifications -> pocket mode

a little searching doesnt hurt, theres a nice little search box up there :)
[LG Optimus Black] raduku009:
Actually i was searching for it, but i never use the search box, i just like to browse around the settings menu, i really love your work xD. How does this thing even work? its based on the accelerometer or what?
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
proximity sensor, the same way the display turns on and off during a call :)
[LG Optimus Black] raduku009:
The 20140706 weekly is very good, i can tell the battery drain has been improved but still draining fast. Great Job !
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
let me introduce you to placebo ;)

i didnt do any changes which could affect battery life since ages haha
[LG Optimus Black] adm_:
hi, Evisceration,

when i was tuning wifi's power issues on my kernel for IZS a year ago, I'd used the reenginered insides of a program 'WiFi TX Power', simply putting them in /system/xbin with proper soft-linking, and arranging required scripts in /etc/init.d

user's finetuning of the wifi's power settings could be enabled by including program's gui in the rom.

maybe it'll help you too?
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
let us come back to this once the new wifi driver is ready :)
[LG Optimus Black] filzip:
Hello,

This is really a good news :laugh:

Some posts before, people reported that BT was working (with call)

Thank you Evisceration

Philippe
[LG Optimus Black] ptxpaulo:
Hello. Handsfree carkit to answer calls and listen music. With music it's not totaly 100% but, maybe it's my carkit. You can try.
[LG Optimus Black] filzip:
Thank you for reply..

I was editing my post while I saw your reply.

I realized that the answer to my question was replied some posts before :good:
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
a quick update again :p

high end effects are now disabled by default, you can reenable them at Settings -> Developer Options

docking support is as well disabled and can be enabled with removing "config.disable_dock" from the build.prop and a reboot.

also at Settings -> Developer Options you can try checking "Disable HW overlays"

force some it may be smoother, for some not.

it resets itself after every reboot though :)
[LG Optimus Black] decioteixeira:
is it me or the transparent status bar on the last nightly is not working? :confused:
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
read one post above yours

"high end effects are now disabled by default, you can reenable them at Settings -> Developer Options"
[LG Optimus Black] rellagher:
I havent even configured my google accounts, just flashed gapps minimal and Google Play services are already sucking battery.

I think I wont flash Gapps next time, instead i'm gonna install my apps without playstore (manual apk's).

By the way, great to see your interest in reducing unnecessary effects and stuff for better performance. :good:
[LG Optimus Black] repulse:
Just delete Google Play Services, or search gservicesfix (can't remember thé exact name, sorry) in Play Store

you can also install Rom Toolbox and disable components of Google Play Services which you dont need
[LG Optimus Black] infernus42:
Hi the ROM is looking good as of last nightly (20140709), except the USB bugs seem to be back. If a call or msg comes through when the phone is on USB, the dialler stops responding and FC's. Anyone else seen this?
[LG Optimus Black] raduku009:
Ok, i get this minor problem and its related to SD card, its pretty annoying and it happens since the latest 3-4 nighlies(im on 20140708) , so here's what's going on: when i want to update to a newer nightly I plug my phone into my computer(using windows) , I turn on USB storage and i delete the old .zip ROM and paste the new one (which in this case was updating from 20140708 to 20140709). After it finishes pasting i turn off the USB storage from the phone and then i unplug the phone(the usb storage menu doesnt close and it keeps loading). Then i proceed to reboot recovery to flash the new nighlty and it shows the 20140708 version and I've pasted the 09 one...I plug again and it shows 20140708 and having 0kb ._. . I paste again then its ok. But why is this happening? Thanks in advance :)
[LG Optimus Black] rellagher:
That never happened to me, I also plug my phone to my pc to transfer the nightlies to the sd card. I guess I would try to format the sd card, or download the nightly right on the phone. Maybe try a card reader to see if the sd card is damaged.
[LG Optimus Black] dedakomarek:
Hi Evisceration.

Please advice .......

I would like to be able to run other than the default camera from the lockscreen, such as camera LgCameraPro, or any other camera. Where can I make changes?

Your rom is great. Only the GPS is not very good

Please excuse my bad English.

Regards.
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
writing a own camera app and adding a lockscreen widget to it ;)
[LG Optimus Black] dedakomarek:
Are there any other solution? Maybe change some configuration file? Or replacement of the default system camera some other camera?

And one more question ...

What can I do to have lockscreen background was black color?

Please do not be mad if my questions are stupid ......

Thank you very much. Regards.
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
no, that wont work.

set a black picture as lockscreen wallpaper :D
[LG Optimus Black] rellagher:
In Themes you can set your own lockscreen background image.
[LG Optimus Black] dedakomarek:
Ok. Thanks a lot. I'll do black wallpaper .......... ;) (Before I had a Mackay rom by kasper_h. There were possible to choose if I want a background picture, wallpaper or just a colorful background of any color.)

I think I found a bug in your rom (if it's a bug ...?) Brightness control keys are still the same even if you lower the screen brightness to minimum. At night, it's quite annoying .......

You can do the repair? Thank you in advance.

Excuse my bad English.

Regards.
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
you want to regulate the hardware key brightness via the screen brightness?

thats not a bug as we never had that feature :D

you can turn it off if it annoys you
[LG Optimus Black] dedakomarek:
In the Mackay rom change the brightness buttons (LEDs) to function normally ....:good:
[LG Optimus Black] dedakomarek:
Hi Evisceration

I send zip file that contains two video files. The first video is to change the brightness of the screen (and also change the brightness keys) from Mackay rom 2.999 Final. The second video is to change the brightness of the screen (without changing the brightness keys) of the Nameless rom 20140707.

I apologize for the poor video quality.

Please, can you try to do this feature?

Thank you very much :)
[LG Optimus Black] LookedPath:
Since the rom is not completed and fully stable, broadcom driver still missing, I seriously don't get the point of nagging him with functions that maybe will be usefull to someone.

Let him work with the really important things and then, when he finished, ask for new functions guys as the me main goal here is to have kitkat stable.

[MENTION=4833385]Evisceration[/MENTION] Sorry for being the sheriff of the situation but we already lost two great developers for our phone because of things like this and I don't want to lose the only one who is keeping alive this phone... Despite the OT I've tried your rom and I think that the only thing that has to be fixed is battery draining with wifi and that is amazing as we never had a custom rom based on CM which come so far. For now though I'll stick with IZS but when you'll fix it I'll install your rom. Thanks for your work and keep going... [emoji16]
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
best thing is, to create an issue on our jira (https://jira.nameless-rom.org) and request it, so i dont forget it :)

if you followed the development youll notice that im not by far a crumpy cat and appreciate feature requests as it shows interest in the project + a rom is something you use, so it should contain features YOU find useful and not the grumpy developers tell you :D

i read a thread once when a user requested a feature (not annoying, he was polite and friendly) and the creator replied "do not tell me what to include in MY rom"

my fingers tickled and i nearly replied something, well, lets call it "not so polite"

to sum it up, feature requests are always welcome.

they are put on our list, will get discussed and added whenever we find free time. :)
[LG Optimus Black] raduku009:
And not just Wifi battery drain has to be fixed, also the 3G drain too, even without them being on, battery still drains, that's only important thing that needs to be fixed (until now). I'll post on the troubleshooting topic later reffering to streaming videos , they don't work but i dont know how to post a log and how to get it xD. Other than those everything seems great, Thank you [MENTION=4833385]Evisceration[/MENTION]
[LG Optimus Black] ptxpaulo:
Hello everyone,

I can't believe that I'm the only one that needs bluetooth in the car for listen music... sorry...

News:

- Bluetooth fully range working ( I mean evrey distance from car-kit) but sound continue to have gliches(?) Music doesn't play flawless. but it's equal 2cm or 2meters away (so, not power problem). maybe codecs?

Can you guys try some diferent codecs? or some different configuration?

Another thing, In other ROM's (ICS) they told us to force GPU rendering for better performance. Can this make any difference here?

Another BIG thanks for your work.
