Where to change font?

Hello,

Comming from Chromium 11, I just installed this rom :good::good::good::good:

I want to customize some setting, but cann't find where to change the default font.

Anyone?

---------- Post added at 11:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:28 AM ----------

Hello,

Which Launcher is the best for this ROM.

What Explorer should I use?
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
For fonts check my signature.

I think nova is the best.

And root explorer is good
[Desire Android Development] nekkers:
Thanks.

What is the default font of this ROM? (before a change them, so I can revert...

Where to change the fonts of text under icons? I think they are a little bit small.
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Default font is roboto light. Icon size can be adjusted in settings > display.

[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
No such issues here. Did you full wipe?
[Desire Android Development] vasili_defy:
Chromium,

I found this in motog forum cortex a7 optimized linaro toolchain! Is it of some use to us?

yup. cache wipe + full format
[Desire Android Development] ltGuillaume:
Looks really interesting.
[Desire Android Development] RoyW:
well, just a small wish, is it possible to add "kill all recent apps" in places like navigation bar button or long press of that??

It is there back in 4.2, I just miss it!

Hope it wouldn't be a hard work!
[Desire Android Development] karo222:
No , None of them works
[Desire Android Development] p70shooter:
Can't remember if it's this ROM or not but go in developers option and scroll right to the bottom. On some roms the kill all option is the last one. Sorry if it ain't in this one.
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Text message signatures are in Messaging > Menu > Settings > Messaging view > Text message signature

VPN is not working atm.

I think this might be achieved through the chamber of secrets shortcuts.

Hello,

First of all, thanks Chromium for your hardwork.

I was using Nikez version of kitkat before this one and it's refreshing :).

Some bugs are gone and the rom feels more fast as before.

I still got 2 hard reboots. Usually I try to launch an app, the phone freezes a few seconds then reboot.

I can't reproduce the bug (since I was doing trying to launch another app the first time) but I made a log so you might want to check this.

Can't wait to see what could come next :)

Sometimes it takes a while before wifi connects to a known netwerk.... Is this the problem already noticed before..?

I had some trouble getting my google calendar visible in the calandar app. Download the latest google calendar app and that solved it.

Perhaps you could make it default in this rom.:)

I might be pretty dumb and even more blind, but how can I activate softkeys? I couldn't find any option for it and my HW keys hardly working.

€dit: Oh man, I AM dumb. Found it under "Navbar".
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Yeah happens to me too. I just open up wifi settings and then it'll connect.

Settings > Beanstalk options > Navigation bar > Enable navigation bar
[Desire Android Development] nekkers:
Cause? Can it be fixed in the next release? Or is it a KiKat thing...
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
No idea what the cause is. I'd need to see some logs, and even then I'm not sure if I'd be able to fix it.
[Desire Android Development] DeeDroid:
I like all the functions of this ROM but the performance is sometimes not that good. I noticed it scores only about 7 MFLOPs in Linpack, I googled a bit and found out that this is the score the Desire used to get before JIT (Just in Time compiler) was introduced with Frodo(2.2). With JIT enabled I should get over 35 MFLOPs. I tried enabling JIT but nothing happens when I click the checkbox in the settings. Is anything wrong or can anyone explain what's going on?
[Desire Android Development] kostelo:
Same result here with latest evervolv nightly so it must not be rom specific but kernel related. Unfortunately I don't know how to solve this.
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
It could be because I followed all of the suggestions here. It says:

I included this in my build. It may make an impact on benchmark scores, but I think the overall performance is pretty decent.
[Desire Android Development] ltGuillaume:
I don't know how long your delay is, but if it's about 3 minutes, then remove the line

from /system/build.prop, or lower the value to 60 or something, and try again.

Edit: didn't have the ROM installed then, but it seems there's a nice option in Settings -> Beanstalk -> Build.prop -> WiFi timeout that does the same thing.
[Desire Android Development] DeeDroid:
thank you, I removed that line from the build.prop for testing and I get my 35+ MFLOPs benchmarks but real life performance is indeed not much faster as the score implies, not sure yet if it's better at all or worse.

One example where performance is really slow is when I move the map around in google maps.
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
I'd think that it would be better with JIT disabled entirely as stated by the android developers site explaining how to optimize AOSP for low ram devices (such as the desire).
[Desire Android Development] RoyW:
I found the setting.java file that it said will contain all the strings. But I don't seem to find anything related to "kill all recents" function...

I looked in here:

https://github.com/SlimRoms/frameworks_base/blob/kk4.4/core/java/android/provider/Settings.java

any help?
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Yeah, sorry I dont think its possible through the Chamber of Secrets. Apparently it needs a settings value that can be changed, and I dont think there is any option in the settings to clear all recents on click.

The icon for activating halo is not the right i think? :eek:
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Yeah, you are right. The wrong drawable is being used for ic_notify_halo_normal.png. Ill fix this in the next build.

Yikes! I just ruined my ears by trying to skip over a segment of a WhatsApp audio recording (it happens with all recordings, using this ROM, I know by now). Playback starts fine, but as soon as I skip a few seconds, a high-pitched unbelievably loud squealing noise came out of the phone speaker.

Why would you want to eat precious ram with touchwiz... ive installed nova launcher on my s3 stock rom to replace touchwiz...!
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Guys, flash this script. I just installed it, and there's definitely a pretty noticeable increase in terms of general UI smoothness.
[Desire Android Development] mipr:
Hi, first of all thanks for the rom - solid work and workign nicely. I had a few random restarts, usually when starting an application - device starts to "think" and then reboots. This happend twice or thrice but no big deal :D Unfortunately I had nto grabbed any useful info about what happened, so not much help from me ATM

Regarding the script - does it contain some fixes too (a kind of patch)? I noticed that there is openvpn included as well as a few other bits (e.g. hosts file).
[Desire Android Development] Pai Mei:
I have the same problem: random reboots.

So it's a common problem...
[Desire Android Development] plazma247:

Not sure it can make a huge diffirence... before installing i would read a few pages back to see if your happy to install... at the very least i would take a nandroid before you flash.. just in case.

---------- Post added at 10:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:09 AM ----------

I never had it... then all i use the phone for is a spare to run viber.. ive had this issue before on my s3 on a bad rom and i put it down to to many apps running fighting for ram as commonly i would check and there be well below 100 left and it nearly always happened when launching a new app or doing something that called for increased ram usage.

Its a place to start (check yourself) and maybe you could provide the dev with a bit more useful feedback ie what you were running and doing exactly when it rebooted.
[Desire Android Development] ltGuillaume:
It seems like half of these tweaks already integrated in Beanstalk to some extent. Would be way cooler to figure out - if it isn't placebo - which of the changes really do have an effect and integrate them into the ROM. That entropy ****, I don't buy it: it's been said over and over already that it just prevents the cpu from clocking down, which, of course, does make it respond a bit more quickly, but eventually just drains your battery. Chromium_, did you enable that one?

It seems a lot of development has gone into this Fly-On mod,which is commendable. Too bad most of it, like with SuperCharger, is just speculation or placebo.
[Desire Android Development] rodlane:
Hi,

Is there a way to set the battery % at which the phone should shutdown?
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Im rarely having any random reboots. Im getting uptimes of about a week before I intentionally need to reboot the phone (usually to get into recovery). Ill show some screenshots of the uptimes later. (Right now its low since I just had to go into recovery to flash the script).

I havent enabled anything. I just took the "flash and forget" approach to this script, and I honestly did notice that things were generally a bit smoother. Maybe a placebo, maybe not...but this is what I'd suggest:

I dont think that you can set that. Ideally, the phone will shutdown once the battery reaches zero. However if you battery is old, it may shut down before that. My battery dies at around 18%, and I got the phone, brand new, in 2012.
[Desire Android Development] Malk4ever:
ok, i discovered some reboots after starting an App from Dock.

If i start for example Telegram or Hangouts form Dock it freezes and rebootes (only if the App is allready running).

another bug:

Beanstalk Options-> Status bar (1st entry) -> Status Bar Color

Causes Status bar disappear and the device is locked (lockscreen).
[Desire Android Development] spezi77:
Maybe then it is caused by fc of keyboard. :confused:
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Maybe...did you choose english as the language in the startup?
[Desire Android Development] spezi77:
After switching to English keyboard the issue with softkeys and hw keys is gone. :thumbup:
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Logcat please. Or use a different weather app.
[Desire Android Development] Krowne:
Maybe that's why I did not work the keyboard. Where I can download the full version? I use Spanish keyboard.
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Yep probably. I would suggest going through the setup in english, then after its done you can go to the play store and install Google Keyboard. That should contain multilanguage.

Nice to see that development for Bravo is still alive. Is ART working here?
[Desire Android Development] tom0769:
ATM Art is experimental, even on the nexus 5.

There are quite a lot apps, that don't support ART.

AFAIK with ART all apps have to be fully precompiled and not at runtime, like it is now with dalvik.

This means the rom sizes will grow a lot.

Our desires have only little memory (flash/ram) so I'd expect ART will never come to Desire.

Hope it helps!
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Dont think thats a bug. Its just restarting systemui to ensure that it updates your changes.

Should I continue using Seeder v2 after I flash this ?

I noticed that there is some "entropy" script in this update... but when checking the "entropy" amount using seeder in offline mode ( while the program it self does NOT raising the entropy it self ) is about ~2000, and when seeder is enabled it's ~4000.

Which "entropy" generator is better ?

( LOL, I almost sounds like my thermodynamics professor :o )
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Ah you're right. Well I guess it is a bug, but it isnt too bad to deal with. It has good intention :)

I wouldnt recommend using both scripts at the same time. It will probably cause conflicts and subsequent issues. Pick one or the other.

And big update coming tomorrow. Fixed VPN, video recording, and the bug were WiFi gets stuck turning on. Also its a lot faster due to some other optimizations.

[Desire Android Development] nekkers:
:good::good: I hope wifi problem is solved. I noticed when I move to the office, wifi doesn't connect automatic to the available network there. Wifi stays on but doesn't connect. Perhaps also the cause of battery-drain because of 3G or trying to connect to wifi not available.

When I switch wifi off and on it connects.
[Desire Android Development] polac:
How can i solve this?
[Desire Android Development] Pai Mei:
There's no particolar app or action that causes reboot: twice it happened just few minutes after I exit from airplane mode, twice when I tapped on google keep widget in order to insert a note and sometimes when I was doing a walk keeping the phone in the pocket (I felt the reboot vibration).

I always pay attention to RAM usage and I use to close recent apps when they don't need.
[Desire Android Development] SaySayonara:
I have no clue if the performance is improoved after installing SuperSu, but when i first turn on the phone, i dont have to wait so much for it to "cool down" and get all the permissions needed.. It seems to me it takes maybe half of the time needed before.

I use Rom Toolbox Lite - the startup manager and i could definitely see a change there. (When i disable receivers)

Also, ive tried V6 SuperCharger script but some of the settings conflict i think, cos the phone is almost not responsive after..

At last, i would like to ask u guys a question. What settings do u have checked on or off in init.d scripts? I ve checked them all :) and dont seem to have any issues, maybe some flickering sometimes, but i dont mind it that much.

I do feel i need to mention that i ve moved everything to sd ext with m2sd, readahead being 128 and 8192 both CFQ.
[Desire Android Development] zumnao:
Dear Chromiun, lately I've been testing some of Spezi's 4.4.2 roms and I was surprised by its room management for installing app.

Both scripts a2sd and mount2sd works great giving more than 100mb free internal memory after gapps installation and keeping enough free memory after installing all other applications. Don't know what but seems he did a good job there; in your beanstalk ROM I can not get enough room for all the apps I use to install. This issue has been reported by different users in the thread. I've made several clean installations to test it all of them with the same results. I think it could be interesting to see if Spezi's solutions can be applied to your rom. For me, this and WiFi freezing are the two main issues I found in this wonderful rom.

Another small one is the impossibility to edit owner profile in quick access panel.

Thanks a lot and keep the good work

[Desire Android Development] maxens63:
I use this rom with the int2ext4 integrated.. And no problem for space at all.

I don't know why people don't use int2ext4, because you have plenty of free space depending on your sdcard
[Desire Android Development] ltGuillaume:
I think I can confirm earlier reports that there's something fishy going on with the included Superuser: even now I installed Koushikdutta's/Cyanogenmod Superuser from the Play Store, it works a bit speedier, less lags, even though that's the one embedded in the ROM.

With the embedded Superuser, I get all kinds of dumb toast messages like "AndroidSystem was granted..." etc. Never had that before, and it's definitely not supposed to be like this. (I also got this, at random, without starting it, "Screenrecorder was granted...". Strange, and since Screenrecorder has been reported not to work anyway, I've removed it.)
[Desire Android Development] maxens63:
I have an sdcard class10, and I don't really see any laggy applications or other things like that
[Desire Android Development] ltGuillaume:
If you have a class 10 card, then it's faster than the Desire's internal NAND, so that's good. What I don't know is whether you're losing much of that speed because the device does all its reading from and writing to the SD...
[Desire Android Development] aledex:
I've just bought a class 10 sd card (mobile ultra, it should work better with smartphone), but I haven't see much difference with respect to the previous class 4 mobile ultra, and it seems that with both my phone is slower if I move everything on SD...
[Desire Android Development] Dodgexander:
I have a class 10 and there is definitely a difference between using it for app-data and dalvik compared to the internal memory. I don't think the problem is with the read/write speed of the SD card, but instead other attributes such as access time. For instance, you may have a class 2 sd card with the same access time as a class 10. It makes no difference.

On top of that I am sure the capability of the cpu/hardware of the device itself limits the performance of the SD card.

A good compromise for me is keeping only dalvik cache on the SD and APP data on internal.
[Desire Android Development] ltGuillaume:
That's good to know. Thing is, the SD card can be as fast as they come, but 1) I don't know what the max. throughput to/from the SD slot is in our Desire, 2) still, like I said, I really think that "load balancing" between the SD card and the internal NAND could improve performance.

Yes, that makes a lot of sense.

I have App+Dalvik+Libs (via Mount2SD) on SD-Ext now, which leaves enough free space for /data/data on the internal (182MB) data partition.
[Desire Android Development] maxens63:
I'd prefer have a little less performance and have loads of space for applications. That's why I changed from gingerbread, because of lack of space for applications. And... we have kitkat running on a Desire!!
