Miscellaneous topic

Guys,

Sorry to come back on this, but I have not really seen an answer to the "Miscellaneous" stuff in the battery stats.

It shows sometimes up to 20% of battery usage, should I worry? Do we know what it could be?

Cheers

This seems to be a problem when using LUX Autobrightness/L, temporarily disable lux services in its settings. It must be to do with the floating window aspect of the package installer, as the same thing happens with SuperSU when trying to grant permissions.

If you're not running LUX then it will be a conflict with some other app/service you're running that takes control of the screen settings.

EDIT: I tried adding SuperSU to LUX's list of exceptions to no avail btw, hence I now flash Koush's superuser .zip to repair root access in this port.

One idea, at least for buyable version. EPM has too much icons... what about do some widgets that would replace some icons for it? Like one to lock the screen, would be helpful to have better size to those that will be in the bar and we can let it in homescreen, giving better user experience (elimante the necessity of scroll down and tap the tiny icon to lock the screen).

Android L-O-V-I-N-G

Today I decided to flash Android L, just for fun (Lie, Bored :silly:), and I feel a great smooth and respond on this, seriously. I 'm a flasholic guy and this satisfies me on every single function. :cowboy:

:D ROM works great, No FC's or SuperSU problems. What I did:

Advanced Wipe with TWRP (System, Data, Cache)

Install Android L 9001 Stable

Install 9001 to 9002 Patch

Install HellsCore b47 (The best around N4 IMHO)

Install UKM

Install SuperSU v2.13

Flash Journal OFF MOD

Reboot

And there you go! A rock solid and fast Android L.:cool::good:

Thanks so much [MENTION=1050103]sykopompos[/MENTION]
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Sir_gpm:
What does journal off mod does?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Vinnom:
It stops system and cache journaling to provide better performance. I use it since [MENTION=275009]ramjet73[/MENTION] shared it and I can say that it really makes a difference ^^
[Nexus 4 Android Development] [zozi]:
No FCs? Even on google play services?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ramjet73:
That's pretty much the same setup I use except for a few things that are a matter of personal preference:

1. My wipe is a "factory reset" in TWRP which formats the cache partition and the dalvik cache, system settings and user apps in the data partition, but not the simulated SD card. The updater-script in the ROM zip includes a format for the system partition, and a delete-recursive wipe of the cache partition and dalvik cache.

2. I use Hellscore Kernel Manager which is easier for me to install and maintain than UKM/Synapse and does the tweaks I need. I also use the OTG version of the Hellscore B47 kernel.

3. I'm using my updated script for disabling journaling (attached) which has the data partition statements commented out. In my testing I was never able to get journaling off for the data partition anyway since it always showed as currently active in the recovery log but I still recommend using a script that doesn't even try to update the journaling status of the data partition.

The bottom line is that we both arrived at a stable, well performing configuration using what is essentially the same approach. :good:

ramjet73
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ramjet73:
Not if you don't let it update the gapps versions included in the ROM zip.

In this case, the latest is not the greatest, and the main thing you will be missing is eye candy.

ramjet73
[Nexus 4 Android Development] CamoGeko:
Eye candy for the win! :D
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ramjet73:
I noticed that your "Journal OFF MOD" was setup a little differently than mine, and that it copied the tune2fs utility and journaldisable script to the SD card, presumably to allow updating the journaling status of the data partition. Unfortunately, that doesn't work for the Nexus 4 since the simulated SD card is part of the data partition, but I also found in the recovery.log (attached) that the none of the mounts are working so no journaling is being disabled.

Perhaps that script was written for another device?

Nope. Nothing.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] ramjet73:

Donate App(s) by @sykopompos (?)

Hi [MENTION=1050103]sykopompos[/MENTION],

I've read the post about making payed apps as Donation Variants ( $1 / $5 / $10 - can't remember, who posted it :( - and search thread didn't gave me the post:( )!

And I had to think about this somehow longer. . .

This idea is not bad for folks, they won't or can't use PayPal.

The only thing is the necessary input for doing this.

- You have to create a developer account on Google Playstore.

- You have to pay for that first, before you can use it ( $ 25 atm).

- You have to think about UI for those apps.

- You have to create the apps (with eclipse/android studio/intelliJ idea) . - I would love to do that for you( as my variant of donation:)!)

(- You have to upload them to playstore)

- You will need a SLA (support level agreement) - Google want's to see that (since sept. 30th 2014)!

So - all in all - it will be some effort for (potential less) benefit:confused:

As these thoughts in background:

- I would ask [MENTION=535343]all[/MENTION] users of [MENTION=1050103]sykopompos[/MENTION]'s ROMs to donate furthermore via PayPal -

Latest gApps FCs

Out of curiosity, what is the cause of the FCs for the latest gApps? :confused:

I've updated to the latest, and only half of them work half the time, including the v5.0.31 Play Store.

So I just reverted back to the previous versions with better success.

I'm not really familiar with flashing new kernels, so I can't be sure changing that will affect the applications, since it's more hardware oriented.

:highfive:
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ramjet73:
Here's the post with the theory [MENTION=1050103]sykopompos[/MENTION] proposed a few pages back. I'm not sure anyone knows for sure since Google has moved on from the L preview and they are the only one with the source code for the apps.

For now the best strategy for this ROM is to flash it (or "dirty" re-flash it) and disable the Play Store updates.

After clean install of 9001+9002 update, no other changes from default configuration.

Turned automatic updates and notifications off in Play Store right after setting up WiFi.

Google Play Services: 5.0.89

Google Services Framework: 4.4.4

Google Play Store: 4.9.13

No FC's and no problems with superuser. Manually update non-Google applications.

Apparently your Google Play Services are still getting updated. Try rolling that back to 5.0.89 by uninstalling the update(s). Don't allow an update to Google Play Services even if it says that another app requires it (roll back that app instead).

Those steps should work perfectly. ;)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ramjet73:
Go to the app manager in settings and uncheck "Show notifications" for those three apps which should prevent them from auto updating if you leave that off at a global level as well. If other apps (like Google+) want one of them updated (usually Play Services) deny that request and uncheck the notification box for that app too. Once you have all the gapps that are dependent on an update to one of those three unchecked you should be able to use Play Store normally to update other apps as long as you update apps individually and don't do an "Update all".

If you somehow still get an FC on any gapp go into the app manager and remove any updates for that app. We know that all the gapps work normally when at the base level included with this ROM.

ramjet73
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
The base gapps are up to date till before the latest gapps started causing the crashes too so it isn't like the base ones are the original L preview ones that are months old but just a few weeks

[Nexus 4 Android Development] kittuboy:
Any app that modifies screen brightness causes this issue. Lux has an option to disable itself whenever an app is being sideloaded. AFAIK this is unaffected by root (SuperSU, Superuser, etc all have no bearing)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] zellleonhart:
-Solved-
[Nexus 4 Android Development] adstraylight:
If you read the whole post you'll see that is what I'm saying, I was simply using supersu's permission granting overlay as another example of when the problem occurs.

Edit: The nuance that maybe I wasn't clear about is that Koush's superuser app uses a fullscreen window to grant permissions, and so is not affected by this slight incompatibility between L and LUX.

That's the same hybrid radio that I'm currently using and the one I recommend. The .27 versus .33 on the hybrid radios refers to the data component and doesn't affect voice reception or quality. In my experience T-Mobile's penetration for voice calls has never been as good as Verizon and some of that may be related to CDMA versus GSM. It will be interesting to see how voice coverage compares between carriers when the migration to VoLTE is further along.

The only thing I can suggest in your situations is to use VoIP on wireless connections when WiFi is available to you. The new Hangouts dialer actually works pretty well and there is also the option to use SIP based calling in the standard Google dialer and both of those alternatives will work over WiFi or a cellular data connection.

Totally agree, but I've given up on trying to convince other users to be realistic about their expectations for L and the new devices.

In the end, people are going to believe what they want to believe, and the feeding frenzy on the Android Tabloid sites is just making things worse. :eek:
