Unfortunatelly he is not using heads up in xposed - anyway he has xposed instaleed but was not active he forgot to install framework so xposed definitelly not causing the issue.

I am still trying to get from him list of apps he installed (he is ex iPhone user and they install lot of crap on their phones).

Build SlimSaberKat-jflte-4.4.4-20140721 is uploaded.

change log:

Source synced with Slimkat 6.6 weekly

Kernel build with new SaberMod 4.9.2 toolchain

For now I removed "answer call with hardware HOME button" it was conflicting with new Slim commits. I will try to add it back later this week.

Holy cow..

I've been on the 7/14 build since it came out, and never got a HeadsUp notification. I completely forgot it was in there. I don't know why, but they're just not appearing in my phone. Strange..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ricardofago:
I must be the chosen one :highfive:.

Anyway, downloading the new build now. I always think it can't get any better and I'm always wrong. Just when I should be writing my bachelor's thesis...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] David_cole:
Go to app Info.... Turn on heads up from there for each app you want it.. You have to do it for each app which is totally weird IMO.

Am I wrong or was there nothing to update for our phone with the latest slim source? Looks nothing new or improved for us?

---------- Post added at 04:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:32 PM ----------

If you don't get a minimum of 5 hours with regular usage then something is wrong with your phone or battery mate... Maybe try a newer gapps package and a full wipe... And always change for longer than when it shows 100% (maybe 1 hour longer)

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ricardofago:
I'm a moderate user. One or two hours on PowerAMP, no browsing, no gaming, rare phone calls or texts, but lots of WhatsApp (around two hours per day) and some syncing stuff (two accounts on Blue Mail, Today calendar, Timely alarm clock). Also, a few rules on AutomateIt Pro (ditched Tasker a while ago due to the amount of wakelocks but not sure if it was a smart decision). Always on 2G-only, one or two hours on WiFi, no bluetooth, GPS or location. Usually reach the end of the day with a little more than 3 hours of screen time when battery is about to die.

Extreme battery (undervolted) profile, always charge overnight, for 6 hours. Phone is now 8 months old, no weird reports on battery comsuption (always screen and system core on top). Greenifyied pretty much everything.

I have done full clean install to see if that makes a difference to me with these freezes.

Sit rep: 11h 17m from full charge, 54% battery left, 2h 30m screen on time - 0 freeze :)

Hoping it stays like this :fingers-crossed:

I have the impression that yesterdays built again improved battery life.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Jsilver73:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Jsilver73:
I'm convinced it's just something screwy in AOSP - Still, I'm going to try uninstalling xposed and switch to ART and then see what happens. (I'm sure I've been here before though lol)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] HaTrED_:
I'm impressed with battery life from 17/7 release, haven't updated to latest one - Yet(!) - just to see how well it goes when compared to GE! Apart from my TB backup that kept phone waked all night long, i was reaching something like 3 hours of screen time with 53% battery left (only with 2G, location on - battery saving - sync's when needed - lots of Wifi and disconnected from network between 11PM and 7:30AM, next tests will be under 3G!).

But your statement is letting me very, very anxious and curious... :laugh:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Jsilver73:
Yes, well maybe you will be one of the lucky ones and not suffer the random freeze generator syndrome. Honestly, I'm sure some people think we make all this freeze stuff up :cyclops:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] HaTrED_:
Apart from SwiftKey, which lags from time to time exhibiting the same behavior under GE, haven't registered a single one till this moment!

Fingers crossed too! :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Zoot Allures:
Yeah, kinda boring to change its release date in my signature, will do the same as you do.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Jsilver73:
Experiment #25647 begins (again) lol. Dumped xposed, booted (or should I say 'bored') into ART - takes soooooo looooooooong!

Just charging phone the will try a complete cycle and see if I can be freeze free too :fingers-crossed:

BTW I (as always) do see a slight but noticeable performance increase on ART ;)

Just a pity the 5 second delay is still present when coming back to home screen to launch secondary launchers from hot spots on edges of screen. That's the one xposed module I really really miss, I wonder, is there a way to disable this Google limitation at ROM level. I know miui fits not suffer this shortcoming :eek:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] messia74:
good morning . A question please. i istalled this rom and have 2 question...how can activate pie?? i activate in setting but don't work...another question...the s view don't work on this Rom??

---------- Post added at 01:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:26 PM ----------

and the hotspot options toggle?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] s3icc0:
what 5 sec delay? I don't have any .. or do I,
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] John_wba:
Sview only works on Samsung ROMs (touchwiz) and pie works by touching the edge of the screen, check "trigger settings" directly under where you turn pie on.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Jsilver73:
Yes, you do but you don't notice it because it only happens when using apps like swipestarter which put hot spots on the edges of your screen to launch apps or shortcuts from. Everything works fine until you use the home button to return to your home screen then Google prohibits these 3rd party apps for 5 seconds. It's a relic from GB I think that paranoid Google programmers put in and for some reason have never taken out again. Some custom ROMs have this bit of code already disabled, ie: miui kk ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
What Xposed module is that?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] malybru:
Hi,

1. settings/navigation/slimPIE

2.You need a third party app from the market .... maybe TW only , not sure , never used it

3.settings/notification & QS drawer/tiles and layout

:)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] messia74:
ok thanks...only 2 question...

hotspot toggle ..how can use??

There is 4 way reboot? i have only reboot and power off...for recovery it's possible on power menu?

If use titanium backup give me error..don't rooted phone..how can resolve? sorry for a lot of question
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Jsilver73:
stopswitchdelay

I just found a workaround of using nova or similar, remap home key (slim navigation/nav bar or hardware keys) and instead of home set applications/nova actions/default page and voila the archaic Google code is this bypassed :victory:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
LOL, just did a quick search, this issue was already reported in 2009 (Android 1.6)

It was then also reported that exiting an app using the back button solved the issue (reminds me off the Slim recents bug, could there be a connection?)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] brunodu91:
So this xposed modules is good or not? Or not useful for us?

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Jsilver73:
I wonder if it will be fixed (or unfixed according to Google lol) in L :rolleyes:

Good point though, that would explain a lot wouldn't it, regarding the recents issue (which is not only in slim but again all over aosp as far as I can see)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
I noticed you already asked the question I was planning to on the StopSwitchDelay thread :good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Jsilver73:
It's useful if you use 3rd party launchers such as swipestarter and don't want the 5 second wait2 you go to home screen, that being said there is a simple workaround as I already posted if you should need ;)

I can always revert the Slim commit enabling the HOME button during "incoming call in the background" that would also solve it for now.

the application of the Galaxy gear is compatible with this rom?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] John_wba:
No, I own a gear. It needs TW framework to sync, you can get the 2 to pair up but no sync/notifications will take place

If you just want to pair them then this is what to do, you need to put gear manager.stub in to system app and install gear manager as a normal app.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kantjer:
I have reverted the commit and answer with home key is working again.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Bejda:
That's interesting,i don't own a gear but as you talked about TW framework i thought about the old trick that allows aosp roms to use Samsung Store (lol,great isn't it? Well maybe but rarely some good deals by there..happened in the past sometimes but can't really say at the moment).

Besides Samsung market related apks it needed twframework-res.apk , twframework.jar and touchwiz.xml permission file to run (still works that way,i just tested again and made a zip for someone recently).

So i was looking a little in a touchwiz rom zip i have on sdcard to see if there was some gear .jar or permissions files that could be of any interest but i stopped when i fell on the web upon some links like this one (and at least one similar on xda Galaxy Gear section):

http://m.pocketnow.com/2014/02/07/galaxy-gear-with-the-nexus-5

You tried such things already maybe?

Anyway about twframework parts i've never seen something useful running on aosp that way except the probably useless Samsung store but who knows..maybe we didn't search enough (find something useful is the main problem lol).

I've once had fully working Samsung photo editor app on i9000 CM rom though (another great achievement lol) by also adding all related libs besides the above mentioned stuffs.

If anyone wants to do such tests (for Gear if it's just about sync maybe there's a little chance..or just a little something else missing..) or just grab the chance to run the known-to-kill-your-battery Sammy store on his aosp build (as data/app's so can be simply uninstalled from settings>apps or even just removed from the zip data/app folder before flash, tw framework parts will remain or get installed anyway) here it is:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Bejda:
Could be app depending dunno cause i knew the story but never faced it,even on i9000 where the home button>home screen was sometimes pretty laggy, with the "swipe from hotspot" app i use since very long which is swipepad.

Just tested again many times on differents launcher like nova (without hardware keys remap) but mainly stock CM11 launcher,Google one,etc..

Apparently i can reproduce it with swipestarter.

Maybe difference is that swipepad launch its own overlay with shortcuts in it while swipestarter (but i just quickly tested) launches apps,activities,etc...directly?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kofe:
I am also using that option. In fact i am the reason that that option is (was) part of this rom :D

I don't know what users think about BOX but for me it's always ok with a pretty good download rate and I have 50g almost empty storage space there.

50g was a permanent offer for new owners of an LG device if i remember well,i had this via build.prop edit when mine was i9000 (still if i remember well a single file upload size limit is 200mb as I'm a free BOX user).

I can share a folder with you if it can be of any help,i just need an e-mail address to send you invitation.If you think it can be useful can i send it to your paypal mail? Another mail?

I have no real idea of upload time but right now i tried to send SlimKat 5.4 buil from my phone and 5mb was uploaded in about 3 minutes under H+,a good thing with BOX is that you have a download count if that matters.
