[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skade:
what about your app drawer? i have the same dpi setting, icon size at 85% and running on nova now. but my app drawer contains a lot of android icons, mostly system pre-loaded apps.

see the pic:

how can i replace the androids with icons? thanks!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3UR0TR45H:
Nova runs beautifully on my G3 and quite a bit smoother than the stock LG launcher. However, the LG launcher is very good and there is a lot of customization available.

One thing I've noticed about the QHD display is that it exposes apps with low-res icons. Nova doesn't display these icons any better, but if you use an icon pack with QHD support, you can expect crystal clarity.

The buttery Nova animations with this amount of Ram, SOC & display = WOW!!!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skin1980:
Install the beta version of nova and all will be right.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J.Guido85:
To change Dpi, don't you have to be rooted?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ant78:
Yes you do and an app called texdroid from the Google store

Im using the paid version of nova. Is there a beta version of nova on the play store? I can only see one version of it, plus the full paid unlock.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DforDesign:
Guys what are you losing when switching to Nova from Stock? Only knock to sleep?

AFAIK you can set Nova to update to beta version in its settings.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KiNG OMaR:
You lose the LG widgets also

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skin1980:
For knock to sleep install screen off and lock from playstore and assign the double tap gesture to that app...
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GroovyGeek:
You can't at least not with the released version of Nova. I have tested the LG launcher, Googgle Now, Nova, and Apex. Only Nova mangles the icons, and only for some of the system apps. Pitty, Nova used to be my primary launcher but now I have switched to Apex and see no reason to go back - now that I have figured how to turn off pretty much every animation and eliminate the considerable lag of the default configuration.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ekerbuddyeker:
Actually by tapping and holding the icon, you can assign a different icon. Works on the home screen.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J.Guido85:
So, to clarify Nova doesn't support g3s 2k display?

Without rooting..
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FormeriPhoney:
Have you tried a icon pack?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J.Guido85:
I don't have the phone yet, I'm asking these questions now so I can make my mind up on what I wanna do when I do you receive the phone.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GroovyGeek:
Good point. I set the resolution to default, took screen shots of all icons then reduced dpi and custom inserted the icons using this method. I now run 480 dpi for everything except the few apps that require it
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhericurls:
Love Nova, dpi works great straight out the box, no need for messing about. Both icons and text look sharp.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J.Guido85:
Anyone have an answer yet if icon packs and nova prime support G3s display?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jagdish84:
Im using Action Launcher and it has the double tap to sleep option, im really pleased with it...using 560 DPI btw

[Sony Xperia L] david makarove:
Great news

Good luck

Why you didn't put it in development section
[Sony Xperia L] GuestK0058:
Similar hardware doesn't make it easier to port it. N4 has a snapdragon s4 pro while the XL has a snapdragon 400. To make a successful rom the device tree needs to be modified and most important, Google needs to release the full Android 5.0 source.

[Sony Xperia L] GuestK0058:
So, to what am I looking exactly?

This seems to be Varun's nightly from yesterday, you've replaced the AOSP apps with Google's/Nexus' ones.

Made some changes in the build.prop

Send from my Viking War Schip
[Sony Xperia L] startracker:
modified framework a bit . libart.so is latest missing libs added .

apps libs are not copied let the framework boot first .

I will soon upload build.prop and updater script gist soon.

wait for an hour or two I am busy right now sorry,
[Sony Xperia L] david makarove:

[Sony Xperia L] biku123:

[Sony Xperia L] Joel16:
Kernel*

Are you sure you know what you're doing here?

PS for the noobs here, don't be stupid enough to let something like this screw up your phones. Btw Mr.Dev you might wanna consider adding "Flash this at your own risk" in the main post.
[Sony Xperia L] startracker:
yup

but it possibly won't brick .

u can help in this project too.
[Sony Xperia L] david makarove:
tried with TZ kernel but still black screen and i wait for up to 20 min

and tried with boot.img that attached but same

and i do clean install

seems to be this build not work :good:

BTW , who you mean in noobs ?
[Sony Xperia L] basuraunak:
Please guys keep calm!

Well porting is not that easy and OP please add proper Changelog...Github...etc.etc..

BTW is this even a real post or just a Build.Prop edit with apps copied??

#peace
[Sony Xperia L] startracker:
its real plz see my work no spam .
[Sony Xperia L] david makarove:
Thats good :D

what about ART ? it is basic ? no dalvik any more in your port ?

and why it is not booting and only black screen ?
[Sony Xperia L] Joel16:
Not you. Just incase someone new pops up and doesn't know what to do, just giving them a warning message.
[Sony Xperia L] Navneet Suresh:
You need to edit the ramdisk of the kernel too, BTW PM me details about your plans of porting it (I might be able to help you ;) )
[Sony Xperia L] startracker:
there are too many changes to be performed not only ramdisk .

I guess we can try it on github then .

varun may be helpful for this stuff .
[Sony Xperia L] Navneet Suresh:
Of course varun can help us ;) he can guide us getting our port boot up and github +1

We can post our logs here as a snippet and every dev can look and point fixes. We have to make sure we dont end up bricking our devices though :)
[Sony Xperia L] startracker:
yep.

this project is surely possible if we give everything to it 'period'
[Sony Xperia L] david makarove:
Good luck :)
[Sony Xperia L] Olivier:
Sorry guys but I don't think this is a good idea. Wait until the full source code is out, then we can build it from source with ease. Porting is much harder and... pointless.

I recommend you to follow the Xperia L Facebook group.

Varun already posted some screenshots. And a changelog

Android 5.0 - Alpha 1 - Release notes

What's working:

- Display

- Touchscreen

- System Audio

- Hardware acceleration

- Headset detection

- Full media playback - Audio & Video

- Camera - Front & Rear

- Video recording

- GPU rendering

What's not working-

All modem related operations which include Bluetooth, WiFi, RIL, GPS

For some reasons modem crashes on Android 5.0.

Once this is figured out, everything above will work.

First Alpha will be out by tonight or tomorrow.

Anyway, its not 'porting'. It's building from 'source'.

ADVICE TO USERS

PLEASE don't ask for ETA'S (EXTREMELY TORTURING ATTITUDE)

OR BUG VARUN ABOUT ANY QUESTIONS REGARDING WHAT IS HE DOING, WHERE IS HE OR WHEN ANDROID Lollipop would be released.

Just let him do his work and don't pressurise him or contact him endlessly. He was pissed off from such behaviour and he has deleted all contact information too. Don't dishearten him too much that he never develops again at all.

He's working on something. so be mature and don't go ahead of anything.

JUST BE PATIENT!! IT WILL COME WHEN IT IS MEANT TO BE! ASKING WON'T CHANGE THAT.

BUGGING HIM NOT ONLY SHALL HINDER HIS PROGRESS, HE MAY SIMPLY STOP DEVELOPMENT FOR XPERIA L AND SELL IT FOR ANOTHER.

Oh! thanks. I almost felt like in heaven when I saw the screenshots!
[Sony Xperia L] 55pawan:
But screenshots doesnt reveal the true story

I flashed it yesterday

Though in alpha stage (respect for developer) ,ui is not that cool

Or may be after experiencing the developers preview of lollipop on my cousin's nexus 5 made me say this...

Camera quality is comparable to stock ( better than KitKat)
[Sony Xperia L] Desmaize38:
Varun's aosp is built from the latest official lollipop sources, so there's nothing different on the nexus 6
[Sony Xperia L] 55pawan:
I agree with you

And but i meant the user experience

Anyways that has totally different hardware

So we can't compare it..

I like the face unlock feature in lollipop

It doesn't pop out the camera while unlocking (runs in background)

And swipe unlocks your handset(only after verifying your face in background)

I like it (y)

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LXXSXNNY:
Hi! I'm running a Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005 from SMA Philippines supposedly having:

PDA: N9005XXUEND6

CSC: N9005OLBEND1

MODEM: N9005XXUENC2

Recently I flashed X-Note Galaxy S5 Port for Note 3 v2.5. I had a few struggles with the UI but I got through almost everything. I love the galaxy s5 features I now have without losing the Galaxy Note 3 features as well.

The PROBLEM:

Mobile data.

Connecting to the LTE network here takes really long and rarely unstable. My main problem is wifi hotspot tethering to my laptop. I used to tether all the time without any problems with the original rom. But since I flashed, I could still connect to my phone but my phone doesn't recognize it and the connection's data drops after 1 minute all the time. Please help!

Solutions attempted:

1. I tried flashing the modem md5 file that's XXUENC2 - same as the original - but it didn't change in the Baseband section in the settings. I'm surprised the data still works on the phone itself but only tethers for 1 minute then drops the data and the connection becomes 'limited' on the tethered laptop.

2. I also tried flashing the modem md5 file from the original Galaxy S5 ROM. It failed and didn't install.

Please help me! I love all the features on the X Note S5 Port ROM but this is my only concern! Please help! Thanks!
