I just remember reading about it and google said it comes down to a OEM updating their camera drivers for it (assume they mean proprietary there with that statement) and oems should take the time to do it yet they didn't update the n4 for it.

Most likely what will happen is that preexisting older devices won't get updated drivers and only new devices or current flagships will maybe get them if it it worth it for their OEMS to put the work in for it
[Nexus 4 Android Development] daivee:
Will it even be worth the effort to make this happen for our devices. Or is it more of a fluff
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Targaeryan:
Probably they didn't see the need to update the n4 drivers since it's pretty "old"..
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
Honestly I'm not a photography buff but it seems mostly the new camera APIs are more for apps to interface with it more directly and people who use Photoshop to have the raw files like a real camera.

Now since the camera on the nexus 4 is a potato, it isn't worth the effort to do it or even have the support
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Targaeryan:
That made me LOL!

N4 Camera = potato
[Nexus 4 Android Development] equi_design:
I also heard the new N9 isn't going to get the RAW (actually DNG if we're being totally correct) feature. But the N4 and N9 will/do have the rest of the upgrades that came with the new Goo Camera (as long as you have that one installed from the Play Store). I'm still kinda hoping someone creates a camera for the N4 that will shot RAW/DNG. I'm no photography pro, but I do love shooting as a hobbyist and I'd really swoon (girl moment) if my N4 could shoot raw & I could edit them in Lightroom. But I also understand that it wouldn't be worth many people's time to make this happen. So I'll be ecstatic if it does happen, but I'm not gonna whine if it doesn't.

I too love the potato comment. :) Although I've had nothin' but luck shooting photos with my N4. Even sold quite a few of them as art prints, cards, stock photography, etc. It *can* shoot some incredible photos. And it shoots F'ing A-MAZE-ING macros with the little Photojojo Macro lens.

I don't have a BT device to check (except a zink pogo printer, which is working fine on Frank 8), but... what player are you using? Do you Viper 4 Android installed? Things to check:

+ In Developer Settings, see if you have the NuPlayer checked/unchecked. Try it the other way.

+ If V4A is installed, check your compatibility mode. If it's set to Normal, flip it to Compatible; and vice versa.

+ Depending on the player, some have options for "pause/stop" when screen is off, or to "never turn off screen" while playing. See if one of those settings exists, and if it helps. If it does help, that would help us narrow down what might be causing your issue.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ramjet73:
Yea, that's true for both RAW format and HDR+.

This article explains the issues pretty well.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
That is true even for a potato camera, I have seen some pretty amazing shots that [MENTION=1811927]simms22[/MENTION] has taken over the years across different nexus devices so I have seen what someone can do with good knowledge and things like micro lens.

That said, check out the pics he has been doing with the nexus 6, those pictures are absolutely amazing and you would think he took them with a real several hundred dollar camera.

BTW, my sister is a professional photographer, my dad is really into it and my mom was years ago. You would think I would have a better understanding if these things but I honestly just don't care about photography

[Nexus 4 Android Development] xshallowgrave:
May I be directed to the changelog for the newest build, please?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ramjet73:
Here's the prototype:

I've stated before that if I'm going to spend the time processing RAW/DNG images with PhotoShop or equivalent I'd rather get them from my digital SLR but there are times I want to take a photo and don't have that with me.

ramjet73
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
I wouldn't clean it up either but I know the signs of a googly before it even happens so I've been pretty good at catching myself
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ramjet73:
Several hundred dollars? When was the last time you bought a digital SLR? :rolleyes:

If your sister is a professional photographer she's probably got at least one of these and that price doesn't include any lenses. :eek:

Nothing comes close to the images from an FX format camera. I think even most of the die hard film photographers have thrown in the towel at this point.

ramjet73
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
I've know the one my dad got was a black Friday special for like $700 that is normally over a $1,000 but I know the one my sister has is way way more expensive.

Me, I could find stuff way better to buy and get more use instead of a $3000 camera.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Targaeryan:
My parents bought a nikon dslr d3100.. 2 years ago... Used it literally 5 times... I used it to play around to understand what the different settings were for... Nada I didn't know what on earth I was doing [emoji14]
[Nexus 4 Android Development] xshallowgrave:
I would love to give that bad boy a try!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Targaeryan:
Do note that taking pictures will result in heat which is part of image processing would help you to get a plate of French fries.. Pictures are stored within the fries btw.. Overheat will cause burnt fries, pictures definitely burnt,but you can still eat the fries. For RAW format, pick the potato camera which is not ripe.

Just wanted to let you all know, that [MENTION=1050103]sykopompos[/MENTION] & me managed it, to make overlays to framework-res or systemui possible!

This is the breakthrough for theming the ROM(s) in another way than theming ROM(s), as we knew it in the past...

small overlay.apk(s) placed in /vendor/overlay will activate the themed stuff after next reboot - woot! woot! :good:

First successful test was made today morning here - after a bunch of fails - we made it! :p

Thank you [MENTION=1050103]sykopompos[/MENTION] for teaching me in this and for your patience with an old man! :)

Now the module for 'Management' of overlays will go into RomMate. . .

That is great news!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Shad0w32:
Sir, you are awesome.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] equi_design:
Ohhhh.... That camera's awful. You should definitely send it to me for “recycling”.

All this talk of DSLRs makes me kinda want one. I have a darn nice Nikon point & shoot which is actually closer to a DSLR/P&S hybrid - suits me perfect. While I enjoy taking photos (~100 per week for my website/graphic design clients), I'm honest enough with myself to know there's no way in hell I'd carry one of the bigger cameras around. After all, I *definitely* never want to be mistaken for a “scrapbookin' Mommy blogger”.

Running awesome here. Fantastic battery life too, as others have stated.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] xshallowgrave:
About to give this rom a go :) Any recommendations on a kernel?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Shad0w32:
Unleashed, or Hells-Core. Unleashed has more options, and Hellscore is just leaner. I personally always went with unleashed, and never regretted it.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] robygt:

[Nexus 4 Android Development] Pereira.Pedro:
Where can I get gapps :confused:
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Vinnom:
Man, this rom is fast, stable, almost bug free. I would use it without any kernel but I like very much unsleashed by [MENTION=1316336]defconoi[/MENTION].

The op has the kernels working with this rom. I really like unsleashed because tons of tunables, but there are several here that goes with hellscore. Try both of them, to see what pleases you the most.

I recommend you to search for [MENTION=4380485]LeoPosas[/MENTION] manual post. ^^

Edit: good mood made me search it for you ^^ go here.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] TheAH:
PA Gapps worked for me but I had to install after booting the ROM for the first time because it said /system was out of space. I used the stock package.

http://xdaforums.com/paranoid-android/general/gapps-official-to-date-pa-google-apps-t2943900

BaNkS Gapps works as well, I think. It is minimal and only has Google Search and the Play Store so you have to install all the other Google apps (Maps. etc,) from the Play Store.

---------- Post added at 11:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:04 AM ----------

I switched over from SimpleAOSP as my Google Maps would never work and it was important that I could use it. This ROM is much better in terms of stability but the battery hasn't been as great. Would you recommend Hellscore for this ROM or have people had any problems with it?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Vinnom:
Never had this problem with pa gapps, but I use gapps-config to not install these:

I have 80mb free :)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] TheAH:
Oh that's weird because the smaller packages would not work either. I guess I need to take a look into that!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
I actually just passed all the stability patches over to simple aosp so they should be just as stable soon
[Nexus 4 Android Development] robygt:
You guys are awesome! This is collaboration!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ramjet73:
I hope that helps them with improving their ROM. :good:

ramjet73
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
I needed simple aosp to take the commits to fix the rro stuff so when we get all the management of it worked out, it will work there for users.

What other fixes get applied are their decisions but every other fix I passed over to them, they have used
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ramjet73:
Ironically, Frank is becoming the new standard for users that want a basic AOSP ROM without features that tend to break other things.

I really think you've got the right approach, which is to make sure your customization works against a solid base ROM, and even the stock ROM's as they are released by Google. If the functions included in the stock ROM aren't working users aren't going to care about the enhancements.

ramjet73
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
That's the problem that I am seeing with most Roms right now, the features being added are causing more problems then they are worth plus they are already building on non solid code in the first place.

I also wanted to concentrate on other methods to do things because merging code and fixing it up each time google pushes a release is a pain in the butt.

Since rro is included in aosp (broken in current stick builds but will be working in 5.1) it made sense to try to work on something that will be included in aosp plus every device that has lollipop so it is cross compatible.

I think most features can be added in and used without hacking the source code to hell though and it is all about finding out how to add them

[Nexus 4 Android Development] pincher65:
I think that this is not a software problem, this hardware problem. and it occurs sometimes when flashing official image. MAC address is taken from the phone, it is not of ROM. This fix may prevent overwrite it, and not to return the old one. you can write it yourself in this folder. you can find it on the box or under the back cover.

Hi,

I just installed the ROM. So far everything is very smooth. I have two questions..

1. I am using faux display to modify the color profile. What kernel can I use with this ROM as the default kernel of the rom is not compatible with this faux display?

2. What is the latest version of the ROM? Is it beta 4 or beta 7. The op carries the latest link to the beta 4 but I saw somewhere in the thread a link to beta 7? Please clarify.

Thanks very much in advance.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ruicc:
Last version of rom is 4.

Last version of kernel is 8.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sivai87:
Thank you so much.. I flashed the kernel that was absolving from yours truly in the second post. But I am not able to find the governor settings. Am I missing something?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] tasadar:
What are the main bugs and issues in the latest builds ? As I understand from brief in the posts the main issue is the WiFi not working correctly ?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
The WiFi is just because we are using a new kernel source which has new WiFi drivers. The old drivers are side by side with the old kit kat drivers so removing the new drivers allows the old drivers to kick back in for the kit Kat kernels out there

Sent from my C6916
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ruicc:
The links to kernel are in post 3.

If you want to change settings in the kernel you'll need to install Synapse and UKM
[Nexus 4 Android Development] manulemaboul:
You need either trickster or synapse + the ukm ZIP to tune it.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] perfoliate:
I had the same issues as others on here when going out of WiFi range on Beta 4. WiFi never disconnects or drops out when out of range so mobile data is never enabled. A cycle of airplane mode is needed to get it functioning again. I tried this first with a dirty flash and then a clean flash, same results. Went back to beta 3 and all is well.

Now looking at the multirom issue but I got no recovery log or anyone telling me exactly what is wrong. I looked at the supposed multirom fixed script but it looks the same as mine already so idk what's going in since I don't use multirom
[Nexus 4 Android Development] xshallowgrave:
Much appreciated sir, thank you!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] HarisA1:
I don't have a log. What I can tell you is that when you try flashing frank via multi ROM everything is fine and once the ROM starts to boot up it just goes into a bootloop. You can still boot into the primary ROM just not into frank. Does that make sense?

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Nexus 4 Android Development] RASTAVIPER:
Tell me what to check for Multirom issue and I would be glad to support you.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
Hasn't that always been an issue with lollipop Roms though?

I can tell you what the probable answer is though. Frank has the default kernel provided in aosp that doesn't have the kexec patch so it won't work as a secondary until I make a kernel with the kexec patch or a user flashes a custom kernel with it in it.

I've been meaning to put a kexec patched kernel in but keep forgetting about it
[Nexus 4 Android Development] HarisA1:
Ask sky mentioned, would you able to flash frank via multi rom then on top of frank flash a frank compatible kernel?

Maybe then it'll work?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
I haven't changed anything that would effect multirom in several releases (at least not that I know of) it has been mostly framework changes the past several builds and none should effect multirom that I know of.

I believe there was a updated aosp kernel when we went to 5.0.1 though which was around version 5 or so maybe that is what is causing the headaches

Edit. As far as I know, there is no issues on other devices either with multirom so which also makes me think it might be the newer aosp kernel on mako
[Nexus 4 Android Development] HarisA1:
Yeah makes sense let's see if flashing a different kernel will fix the issue

[Nexus 4 Android Development] mperezm77:
I've tried with Simple AOSP and NX ROM and they both works fine.

I've only faced this issue with Frank. And I've tried with stock kernel and Hellscore kernel which has the multirom patch implemented.

But in my case is not a bootloop but the boot never ends. I mean, for me:

Bootloop is: Google logo->boot animation-> Google logo -> boot animation....

The problem I face is: Google logo-> boot animation.

I would be glad to help. But I'm not sure how to get it as the phone doesn't boot. Is there any place with instruction (for dummies) which explains how to do it?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
If you got a computer and adb setup, you can just open up a terminal and type adb shell logcat once it boots and then just c+p the info to a text file so I can read what is going on
