Question marks in diamonds on the mobile app.

The latest ParrotMod is way better, especially with zram of 250MB via DC-KERNEL, I use the Kernel Auditor app to activate this btw.

I also close most apps via the back button now as the load times of cached background processes from the zram are very quick and doing this keeps the umcompressed ram free to load the active task into. This avoids making the device run out of memory altogether which is what causes the stuttering animations.

The only exception is chrome as it is so slow and cumbersome to load. For this I exit with the home button to try to keep it in normal ram.

The benefit of zram is that you can cache more processes in background, avoiding as much as possible the need to reload them from internal storage, but this in itself is way faster now because of the mod.

Make sense?

Oh, and another trick I'm currently testing to free up ram is to use the screen off kill app I mentioned before to kill systemui, as I think this gradually uses more and more ram over time, and it reloads instantly when the tablet wakes up. Seems to be working well so far, I first discovered this via a bit of research into lags and freezes in some Android devices - think I might have found it in a thread about the Archos tablet....

Your making my Nexus 5 jealous, it's crying in the corner right now. By the way, anyone notice how different the keyboard is with the latest update Google pushed (an emoji bar?)?

Also, who knew it was so easy to root Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 P3113 (yes I memorized the name) from 2012? Odin is way to easy... Also, somehow, setting the governor to performance made the Tab faster than my (newer) iPad 3.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
The new Google keyboard is friggin awesome. Themes?!!! Emoji bar ?!!! I'm impressed.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] jer_ying_fd:
And also the animations when you hold a key for the symbols/numbers! Can't believe such tiny changes can make such a large impact on my experience
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Yeah, that's cool. The only thing left is to elevate the keys by adding a drop down shadow behind them, otherwise there's nothing related to "material design" in there (for when the "key boarder" feature is activated, of course).
[Nexus 4 Android Development] googleygoggles:
That would never happen... right? Right????
[Nexus 4 Android Development] googleygoggles:
Honestly, believe it or not, I miss skeuomorphism...
[Nexus 4 Android Development] jer_ying_fd:
I actually think material design is the best thing to happen
[Nexus 4 Android Development] googleygoggles:
The original material design looked great, until Google messed with it until it was ugly. The animations that started out as "beautiful" are now just inconsistent, illogical, and don't seem to follow one of the simplest design guidelines, the "rippling paper" effect. Slide out menus that had the hamburger icon smoothly transition into a back button are now either hidden by a FULL SCREEN slide out menu so you can't see the animation. Look closely in some of Google's apps and you should see it start the animation before being covered. Okay, this is an incomplete rant but I have to go.

Edit: the only app that has Material Design correctly implemented (in my opinion) is the Google Play Store.

The most beautiful UI ever created is Windows Aero believe it or not... It's just *sniff* beautiful everytime I see it I remember the good old days when people actually cared about design choices. Sigh... Don't even get me started on the Google Play XXXX (Music, Books, Newsstand, etc.) And their icons compared to 2012/3... ?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
The new Google apps icons are friggin ridiculous. I don't understand how they could create such crap. Their designers need to go and design sheep shelters.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] jer_ying_fd:
Yes, hated it. The previous icons were fine!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] googleygoggles:
Like I said, the best design in my opinion was Windows Aero, and Microsoft was on a roll, that is... UNTIL THE FIRED EVERY DESIGNER WITH A BRAIN AND CREATED METRO.

WTF Microsoft? How can you get something so right, and then create the most hideous design ever (well, almost as bad as MS Bob)?? Sharp corners? Monochrome Icons? Pictures that only take up ¼ of the tile? No animations? No start up sound? No thoughtful startup animation? Confusing Apps with mixed designs? I can go on and on about how bad Metro is...

At least I have hope that W10 will EVENTUALLY be releasing. I love what they are doing with the newest preview (especially the lock screen, it makes sense now!) It's only a matter of time before someone at MS ****s it up again though...

[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
You are correct, I was testing some things for layers and not frank
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
Thats what it would be.

Right now you can backup your setup and restore it at any time and can have multiple ones.

Little farther on ahead, we will setup triggers to automate it so you can have it change when you want automatically like a more advanced day/night with what themes you want it to switch between, even farther later we will tie it to weather so you could have it change based on that too

So I tried to compile AOSP today, and apparently a potato from 2010 ISN'T strong enough to compile this build... (I'm not gonna use ccache)

[Nexus 4 Android Development] jer_ying_fd:
I don't have enough storage to even try lol
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Maxr1998:
Which java version do you use? This might be the issue. Try to install openjdk8.

And how much RAM do you have? Please say it's not below 4GB :/

Anyway, ccache would be especially good for you I think. 50-100GB is a good bet :)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] googleygoggles:
I'll have to check the Java version again when I get home...

I have:

6GB of RAM

A Core i3 (sadly, it's a first gen 370M) @2.4Ghz

And I have a total of ~160GB of storage for this Lubuntu install

I had to leave Windows 350GB since that's what I use most. I thought that this much would be fine, especially since I wasn't even using ccache.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Maxr1998:
6GB sounds ok, and 50GB ccache should still be possible. It will improve build times dramatically!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] googleygoggles:
Honestly, the only real reason why I haven't set up cache is that I don't know how and am pretty sure I'll break stuffs if I try. Oh well, I seemed to manage to break stuff without even trying...
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
Googley could even get away with a 25gb ccache if only compiling for one device.

It will speed up future compiles but the first one is a bit slower since it fills the cache

As far as 6gb, that's fine for 32bit devices but 64 bit ie angler, bullhead should have at least 8gb
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Thrikiller18:
does the rom abandoned or will resurrect after some time?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:

You're the man. Last time, you and Aldy brought Marshmallow to the N4 even before anyone else had a taste of the new OS, including the 6P and 5X's users that were still waiting for their phones to be delivered. It has been a privilege to use Frank and no matter if you'll bring N to the N4 or not, you have my deepest respect for your work and dedication. *I remember when it was like 5, 6 in the morning and you were still replying to pretty much everyone.

Nutella. Nougat is better than it. It's easier to picture it in one piece, considering that the phone is formed like a bar of something. It's also easier to create a mascot for the new OS version.

I have the exact same settings with Wi-FI off and most of the time it takes a long time for me to be able to send a MMS.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sublimaze:
This is probably the most solid port I have ever used. Zero lag, no graphics glitches, and no random reboots or freezing up (and I have a "slow" binned CPU, on defconoi's latest kernel and -50 UV across the board). If I didn't know better, I would think the phone shipped with this ROM. So far the only annoyance is having to disable Wi-Fi to send/receive MMS, but that is just a matter of toggling Wi-Fi.

It's all about learning, and everyone brings new experiences to the table. I always tell myself that if I don't learn something new every day, then it's a wasted day :svetius:

Sending MMS over 3G takes some time. It's not nearly as fast as my LTE devices.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] justthefacts:
So true on both statements. The day you stop learning is the day you die.

I also have the exact same settings and Hangouts just doesn't want to send or receive pictures.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] ramjet73:
It's really easy to get LTE on the Nexus 4 with this ROM if you are on T-Mobile USA or another carrier using band 4 for LTE.

Just download this app and install the .33/.98 hybrid radio. The other changes required with the Nexus 4 stock ROM are already there since this ROM is based on the Nexus 5 L preview.

Lucky Patcher has no legitimate purpose other than pirating software. If I use an app regularly, then I buy the licensed version to support the developer, even if I don't need the extra features.

Yeah, I've just been too lazy to do it :p

When I first flashed this port, I think I remember seeing another carrier APNs like Straight Talk or Boost or whatever. I noticed that even when I selected T-Mobile APN, it would revert to the other carrier APN, so I deleted everything but T-Mobile APNs. I still could not send or receive MMS until I selected the 2nd T-Mobile option in both Hangouts and main settings, and disabled Wi-Fi. I discovered this by trial & error, and rebooted after each change.

Do you have other carrier APNs on your list? Maybe your phone is still using those, even after selecting T-Mobile. I know it sounds weird, but my MMS finally worked after I deleted the other APNs.

Also, are you sure your main settings > Mobile network APNs are the same as Hangouts APNs? They must be the same, or you won't get MMS regardless of your Hangouts APN settings.

FWIW, I am on T-Mobile prepaid, but I don't think prepaid vs. postpaid makes a difference for APNs.
