We have seen those commits around different sources. I've heard mixed stability with those features so we may play around with it.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] matthew0776:
My exp with that function is very buggy...of we can implement it without causing other issues than yes...but otherwise probably not ...it's just not worth losing stability
[Nexus 5 Android Development] :
Great update mar5hal !!! This rom should be up closer to the top of Android development instead of way down here if you ask me. Its one of the best there is!! To everyone who uses CandyKat, be sure and vote on this thread. I 5-stared it a while back! Thank you!!! [emoji2]
[Nexus 5 Android Development] JediSooner:
Recently switched from Beanstalk... this is a great ROM!!! Question... how easy is it to get to the images used as "contextual notification header" images based on time of day? I've searched here and Google with no luck.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mar5hal:
Cheers mate. Just glad to put it out here for everyone :good:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] matthew0776:
Super easy ...they are in systemui.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mar5hal:
Matt beat me to it. We are also working on making them sweetener pack themable.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] JediSooner:
That would be awesome! In the meantime, I'll see what I can do about getting into systemui. Not much experience there, but I'm eager to learn. Thanks to you both!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mar5hal:
Easiest way to swap out the apk is to manually copy it to your computer from the rom zip, then open it with a file manager like winrar or archive manager depending on the os of your computer them navigate to the drawable folders ie hdpi, xhdpi and xxhdpi to find the images then replace them. Put the modded sysui.apk in a flashable zip then flash it in recovery. Feel free to pm me for a folder or any other help you need
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Schnadam:
How do I regain root access? Say I don't have it after flashing this rom
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mar5hal:
Settings/developer options/root access/ apps and adb
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Schnadam:
So what your saying is I have to do it all over again?

Edit: never mind.. That was pretty self explanatory. Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] himesh_reddy2:
Loving it!

I'm new to this ROM and i have to admit the ROM is pretty snappy inspite of all the cool features it offers....

gonna switch to ART later...

on the downside, there's no HALO (I guess ppl dont mind anymore)..

Overall the ROM is awesome! :good::good:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] JediSooner:
These instructions worked perfectly! Thanks again for the guidance!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] folken:
Ok that's GOOD. Thank you. ;)

Yeah stability is more important

But can I have quick setting toggle like this ( linked layout )

Exact same setup! CK + EX + Viper
[Nexus 5 Android Development] wolfen69:
Sweet rom. One of the best I've tried so far. Keep up the good work!

Clear Recents app in single swipe ?

Hi,

I am new to this Rom. I was unable to find the clear all recent apps in singles swipe. All things are perfect for me. Any one can suggest what to do for it ?

Also cannot add Screenshot in Quick Toggles. I could get it an Advanced Power menu, I have found for other actions like screen timeout, sync, But coudn't get screenshot option. Any help would be nice !

Regards

Zaib
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mar5hal:
to clear all recents just pinch the recents panel until it turns red. thay will close all out. i will look into adding the screenshot qst
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PIPS:
Hey mar5hal,

Just rated this Thread/Rom and also wanted to thank you on an amazing ROM. :good:

The only thing that the ROM is missing and im sure people will benefit from this is being able to arrange apps in the App Drawer.

I've seen Apps arranged by "Most recent installed", "Last used" and "Apathetically" in the app drawer.

Anyway of incorporating in any future builds ?

Thanks

PIPS
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mar5hal:
cheers. glad you like it and thanks for rating. as for the app drawer I'd recommend trying another launcher. i haven't used it in a while but i believe nova has the option too customize the app drawer. I'm simple and keep it alphabetical
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PIPS:
Think I'll play around with a few Launcher's,

Thanks man :good:

AOSP-based, Slim Recents, Peek, Hover, working WiFi AP, works on F2FS. Yup, I just found my permanent home ROM. Smooth as hell, using big-bum's F2FS kernel and this ROM flies!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mar5hal:
hover hasnt been pushed yet but it will be soon. welcome home :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] matthew0776:

Thanks man for ur support! This release is the closest to the ROM we wanted from day one then ever b4. Lots of features that all make sense... But not to much to where its over kill. And the rom suffers. Its been a long road and long days...but we are very happy in where this project has gone. And will cont to bring it! ?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] :
You and Aaron are great!! A great team you guys are, and others who help on the team as well. You two have never been rude or smart headed to anyone ever in any of your threads here on xda and I respect you guys even more for that. There are those who have some nice roms and their attitude ruins the experience if you know what I mean. Thanks for the great rom and for being all around good guys. I will always follow you guys.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ntress:
Just installed this rom to try it..

Circle Bar doesnt work for me after i enabled it and choose apps .. :\
[Nexus 5 Android Development] matthew0776:
Try to keep it enabled and reboot ... You also have to trigger it from right side ...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ntress:
yeah this is what i did... disabled and rebooted, then enabled and rebooted..

i cant access it for some reason..

did a clean flash of course.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] matthew0776:
Weird..!!! It's should work... We only had one tester report it not working...but after reboot it was fine...????? I'll have to ask another n5 if they have same issue. Very strange !
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ntress:
im trying to clean flash and reinstall the rom..

will report in 5 minutes, thanks for answering :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] matthew0776:
It only triggers on the right side ...towards the middle top of ur screen is the trigger...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PIPS:
Guys silly question....

When updating the ROM to the current version, what steps should one take ??

Flash, fix permissions, wipe data chache, wipe dalvik.....Is this all necessary ??
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ntress:
after clean flash and reinstalling the rom circle bar still not working for me, of course i know where's the trigger while using previous roms and also i tried across and around all the screen edges.

also i noticed that when im on homescreen and tap a little lower than the clock in status bar, i get a toast message saying "App isn't installed."
[Nexus 5 Android Development] matthew0776:
Minimal...wipe both caches and flash ROM and gapps...but if bugs show up...do it clean

The right way the (clean way ..lol)

Factory reset...wipe both caches,data and system 2 -3. Times. Then install ROM and gapps reboot ...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] jenkins-84:
No problems with app circle here

Even cross devices its fine
[Nexus 5 Android Development] matthew0776:
Hmmm..the app circle thing is def strange...the toast thing...Do u have Google search installed.? Usually that opens google search if u have a search bar on ur home screen on top...SORRY FOR UR ISSUES..! did u verify md5 ...maybe bad DL...?! Very ! strange...I'll keep u posted and cont to ask our testers with n5 and other devices
[Nexus 5 Android Development] davej23:
Hi everyone, does this rom have the new cm theme engine?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] matthew0776:
No not yet...will soon most likely
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ntress:
no i didnt have the google search installed as i just clean flashed and installed the candykat rom..

of course my issues is not your shame and thank you very much for your hard work and donate:)

New version is running great with franco kernel! Thanks a bunch!

The lockscreen notifications was what I was waiting for. I'm done flashing for a while, now off to enjoy it.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] TheAntagonist:
Is a fresh clean install recommended if I'm just updating from previous CandyKat?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Cuzz1369:
I had a problem with a dirty flash but it was most likely my fault. You can always just make a backup and give it a try, if things don't work out just factory reset.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] coyote_f:
LED Notifications doesn't work for me. System LED Notifications and App LED Blinker doesn't work, but Akku charge LED works fine, any idea?

No problems here. Make sure you have no conflicting apps or xposed mods(eg. light flow, gravitybox.)

CandyKat updates

Hello I was wondering, in the changelog section it shows on 5/20 the rom was rebased to slim code. Whenever there is an update for Candykat does it incorporate the latest updates to slimrom? Or is it slower based on the code you find most stable from slim. Just wondering, I'm learning to cherry pick and use github for myself. Also when you cherry picked hover, were there any complications or files you had to change or was it pretty easy. Thanks! [MENTION=3947779]mar5hal[/MENTION]
[Nexus 5 Android Development] coyote_f:
Ok. Now it works. No other LED App can be installed if I use the system LED App.

Does anybody know why Super User isn't installed? And when I try to flash SU it just get's stuck when trying to get permission in app.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] matthew0776:
Enable root in dev options and ur all good
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mar5hal:
yeah we keep up with slim as much as possible. they usually release on a weekly basis and merge many if not all the updates they push. as for hover their were some standard conflicts in say the strings and of course our basestatusbar and phonestatusbar but since pa released the code a lot of people have jumped on it and gotten around most errors. feel free to pm me or anyone in the team if you have any questions going forward with your building :good:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] citizen-erased:
Sick Build man really I happy I found your build. I'm completely satisfied on the custom level.

I just wanna say thanks for such a great build when I have money on my pay pal I'll definitely donate

Thanks and I have been using your build since last week and it's too legit
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mar5hal:
cheers. glad you like it :D
[Nexus 5 Android Development] wolfen69:
SuperSu worked great for me.

I'm using Light Flow Lite with no issues.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] godsonbx:
Anybody know of any great kernel's that will work well with this rom? You know, as far as saving battery without sacrificing too much performance.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] sirshakealot:
Try Elemental X. Good kernel to start with.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] :
I've been onboard for weeks and I've experimented quite a bit with a few top notch kernels,,Trinity, Franco, Elementalx .... My suggestion is to stick with the included Slim kernel. After a few days it settles and I've never ran out of juice yet while away from home. That's my experience anyway.

**Everybody please be sure and vote on this thread.. It deserves to be waaaaay up at the top. [emoji108]Hope all have a good weekend. Cheers![emoji111]

All good stuff but this privacy gaurd has a problem with any app that I hide notifications from. Gets annoying because I turn the notifications off for a reason and privacy guard pops up every time the app tries to send a notification. Anybody know what I could do? Can't hide notifications from app ops because its part of android system..
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mar5hal:
have you tried un ticking the privacy guard notification?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Koopa777:
Awesome sauce. Running on F2FS with ElementalX. I'll be that guy though, what are the chances of getting download pause/resume functionality implemented? That's literally the only thing I can think of that would make this better than it is.

On a side note, I'm loving notification light customization. I've never noticed it until now.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Diizzymatt:
Lol... Guess not I never thought of going to it from there every time I went to privacy guard it was straight from the notification bar. Thank you
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mar5hal:
maybe we will look into that
[Nexus 5 Android Development] philosoweed:
Long time Paranoid user here, decided to install multirom and give some new roms a try. Glad I did, CandyKat is a solid rom.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] wolfen69:
One "bug" I noticed was if you connect to Chromecast and turn the phone off, the screen will come back on, fade away, then turn off but will turn back on again, fade, turn off and keep repeating this. I noticed I had "wake on notification" enabled, and turning this off will keep the phone from constantly turning on and off. Not a deal breaker by any means, as I love this rom, but just thought I'd let you know.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mar5hal:
thanks for the heads up
[Nexus 5 Android Development] :
Does this rom run in dalvik or art? Or both?

Thanks
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mar5hal:
basic dalvik runtime to start. art is an option though
[Nexus 5 Android Development] sumeetp:
nooooooooooooooooooooooo..haloooooooooooooooooo..oh how i miss you..this would be my dream rom with halo..
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Diizzymatt:
How do I add clear all to recents? Pretty sure there was an option last time..
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Z1cK:
you have to use the two fingers pinch over slim recents panel.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mar5hal:
we took halo out for hover
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Z1cK:
Good move! IMHO
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Vortex1969:
Wanted to drop in and say thanks for building this great ROM. Really like how easy it was to customize and the cherry on the top is that run flawlessly. I know benchmarks don't mean much but I still like to run one once in a while. So here is one from this master piece at stock clock.[emoji106]
[Nexus 5 Android Development] TplusM:
Benchmark

I didn't get the same results as you :crying:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mar5hal:
nice to see those keys still in action :good:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] TplusM:
Those keys make my phone come alive. :good:

But I went back to the kernel this ROM comes with and I feel so stupid for not having given it a shot in the first place. Its so much more snappier and the battery is definitely lasting longer. :fingers-crossed:

Note: For those curious, I tried Franco's(r54 also) and Elemental. I had lot of issues with Elemental for some reason and so that did not stick around too long for me to comment on the battery. But with Franco's I was getting almost 4:30 hours of screen time.

With the slim kernel, I saw 5 hours today. :cool: But I'm going to hold back from posting a screenshot until I know that's consistent. :fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] follettoverde:
Flashed today and first impressions are very good. Only one thing to say: charging animation when device is switched off seems to be buggy and maybe the phone doesn't charge correctly. This issue also in slimkat ROM, but they will fix it soon.

Thank you very much for sharing your work and sorry for my english

Hi! :)

I really don't understand whats the difference between Sweetner Pack 1 and Sweetner Pack 2....

Another thing:

At the OP the link to the rom is this: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407569113 (candykat_hammerhead_alpha1.1.zip)

And on your site the link is to: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=11809 (CandyKat-4.4.240-20140205-hammerhead.zip)

What is the newest?

:confused:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] matthew0776:
The first one I believe...the link on the site must be wrong...sorry about that.

Sweetner pack 1 is for various ui mods...Pack 2 is solely NAVI BAR RELATED mods...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] aheeejd:
Nice. Alpha, this rom is running great. Really like the candy store. Pretty cool having the play station softkeys. Great job, thanks. Be following this thread. Subscribed!

I want so much to help this new effort..!!

Some questions though.

Its mandatory to flash the sweetner pack..? i am not really into the customizations... just looking for a boosted CM version ;)

and last the dark UI has holo blue deatais like the stock or its with white details..??
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mar5hal:
Candy sweetener is not mandatory. Most of the holo blue is gone. Only a few things left like the setup wizard etc. Following 4.4 ui though
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mr_Comple:
Really glad..!

I wih you guys a good start..!!

Gonna support you with all my heart !

downloading/flashing and reporting..! :D

EDIT: super smooth..tell the for real guys this can't be an alpha build xDa

Rock stable with all the goodies that CM has

Plus a kitKat theme,no more holo blue user interface..

Halo is a must have feature...

Looking forward for more features... have something in mind..small ones but really handy..
[Nexus 5 Android Development] rickyq12:
So it is okay to flash both packs, correct?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mar5hal:
Yessir. Pack 1 is for glowdots, halo mods, scrubbers and lockrings. Pack 2 has more navigation bar mods and highlights.
