personally, i don't want to expose all of stream types to be configurable. it'd be too much in my opinion.

if i only enable for voice_call and music, other user will request for other stream type...so i'll think again :p

btw, i found the build prop names:

ro.config.vc_call_vol_steps for call

ro.config.vc_music_vol_steps for music
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Definitely agreed. But maybe rather than the steps being user-configurable, just set them to 25 or 30? This is for the media volume and the headset volume. I don't see much need to configure the other volume streams ;)

I just tested, setting:

ro.config.vc_music_vol_steps=30

and rebooting works sweet :D
[Nexus 5 Android Development] eris72:
So would we add these lines to the build.prop? I don't see either in it now
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
See my post above yours ;) I just added it to the build prop yes. I'm about to post in the goodies post with a 'how-to' :D
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Konsumhaus:
Yes, thats apossible way everybody should be able to change.

But one question:

I´ve gone to system/build.prop but didn´t find there these lines...Am I in a wrong folder?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
See the third post in this thread, I just edited it to add instructions. But yep, just add the lines fusionjack wrote with "=xx" where xx is a number. See the 3rd post :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Konsumhaus:
...simple way. I´ll try right now!:good::cowboy:

Edit: Works! :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] fusionjack:
in the past i have set it to 40 and there was pro and contra :p

perhaps the difference from 15 to 40 is too big, but i think 25 should be a good new default value...everybody agree? :p
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Konsumhaus:
25 or 30...still much better than the stock 15 :good::cowboy:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Definitely, that's perfect :D 40 is too many, it takes too long to change. But 25 will be awesome :) thanks mate!

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Phazmos:
15 is just fine, but if all it takes to change is a build.prop edit, set to whatever you want.

Those who want to wear out the volume rocker can, and those who don't can change easily enough.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] fusionjack:
point taken. i forgot that some users have problem with their hw buttons.

see...already has a contra by setting the default value :p
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Phazmos:
It's just an opinion, but I've never needed more than 15. Over that is too much work, under that doesn't have the granularity I'd like to see.

Only really like to see 15 for ringer/notifications. That's really needed.

Can that be set via build.prop?

Could CoS be used to change any if those values on the fly?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] DeepSleep85:
Hopper/fusionjack,

Much thanks for your awesome work on this ROM, been my DD for 1 week now and loving it.

Quick question, the camera widget in the lockscreen seems to be stuck there regardless if I remove the listing under security settings.

When pressed, it just fades till I release my finger.

Clean flash, code_blue, 9-11 build.

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Glad to hear you're liking it! :) yes I also have this. If I disable the camera widget, I still have the icon in the bottom right corner. I think this is a know bug though, I've seen people on the official thread mention it. [MENTION=264345]ralpheboyo[/MENTION] you also have this right? Did you find a way to get rid of it?

Sent from my Nexu5
[Nexus 5 Android Development] DeepSleep85:
Not a big deal, just curious. Thanks again!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] SteveMurphy:
The way I got around this was to use the Dashclock widget; it doesn't have the camera icon on it and I actually prefer it to the stock lockscreen (which is a bit boring, IMO).
[Nexus 5 Android Development] DeepSleep85:
Hey SteveMurphy, I remember you from the SGS2 slim thread, good to see you again.

I'm actually using dashclock as well. However the camera icon seems to be hard coded into the navbar. Definitely something I can live with, just a little OCD tweaking out every now and then
[Nexus 5 Android Development] choosetobelieve:
Hi guys, I found that I do have mobile data since I flashed this rom. I have enabled mobile data under settings. But the same issue exists.Thanks
[Nexus 5 Android Development] SteveMurphy:
Ah, so that's where I've seen your name! Good to have familiar faces, and with these threads we're all building new friends and connections.

Anyway, because I don't use the navbar (always expanded with PIE) I don't see the icon on my lockscreen. Thanks for your insight.

---------- Post added at 07:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:52 PM ----------

Probably an APN issue, best to check them with what your carrier recommends. Even the smallest of mistypes can cause issues.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] choosetobelieve:
Hi, Thanks so much. Why the Apn has been changed to another name. After I select my carrier, the issue has been resolved. Why? I have never needed to do this before.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] SteveMurphy:
Who knows. Best thing to do is delete all apn's you don't use so this won't happen again. If you dirty flash updates the ones you remove are not restored, so going forward you should not have that problem.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Thanks mate for stepping in and helping out! Really appreciate it :) :highfive:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
For anyone who hasn't seen, have a look at an awesome new feature of Slim's website: http://slimroms.net/slim-bean-features/feature-tree

It acts as the ROM, virtually through the website. You can browse features of the ROM without flashing anything! Pretty awesome :D Of course it doesn't include the features from SlimSaber, but has a lot of cool stuff.

Also just released is the Slim User manual. This seems to have every custom feature of official Slim listed. Awesome job to the guys who put this together.

I'm linking both in the OP/following posts, [MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION] this might be good for you to put in your threads too? :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] choosetobelieve:
Does the slimrom canceled the lockscreen shortcut?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
I'm not quite sure what you mean. But if you're asking if Slim has taken out the lockscreen shortcuts from the ROM, then nope. They're under Security - Slider targets and shortcuts - Shortcuts. I hope that's what you mean?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] choosetobelieve:
Thanks for your answer. I believe that the lockscreen shortcuts cannot be used with lock screen notifications. It is going to be one or the other. Am I right?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Nope, I just enabled both and tested... Seems to work fine for me :) See screenshots (I sent myself an sms and quickly turned off the screen before it came)

Sent from my Nexu5
[Nexus 5 Android Development] :
AFH is having some issues today, they even have a small notification on the website when you are directed for a download. Maybe it has something to do with that. Anyway I just hit your build for the first time so it should be at least 1 :D :D Not much to comment yet as I'm still doing my set up routine but I'll leave some feedback after a few days. I'm loving that on the N5 with Slim we have the option of not only using stock Slim but also all these personal builds - I'm getting fond of the SaberMod builds since they seem to give me a good 30 - 45 minutes more of on-screen time and they are all very slick.

Do you mind a question: is there a specific reason you chose Code Blue kernel to go with? Not that I'm complaining, it's just that most builds I see are on slim kernel so you take a different approach.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Cool let's blame it on that then ;)

I think there's been a slight misunderstanding, these builds are with the stock slim kernel which has just been tweaked a little. Not much but for example, we have the i2c kernel commit and of course it is built with Sabermod.

As code blue is not included, when people ask me which custom kernel I have used and like, it's code blue :) I hope that clears it up. I also hope you like the builds! Looking forward to your feedback [emoji106]

[Nexus 5 Android Development] :
Thanks, that cleared it up :) I'll drop back with the feedback later.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Tylog:
Stock Kernel is always the First choice. Reporting Bugs makes only sense with in build stuff.

Most guys here are Flash junkies and like it to play with Custom Kernels.. If you want to use a different Kernel, CodeBlue is the first choice, best Custom Kernel out there (my opinion)

Sorry for the lack of info. I'll sell you mine if you want a black one, I should have gotten a silver one.

So the bluetooth can see it but it just tries to connect over and over again with Android Wear app or it will just fail to pair. I've tried multiple kernels to no avail and resetting my watch to factory defaults.

If i restore my nandroid to Slim 7.9 it works great.

EDIT- Also just trying to connect with the phone bluetooth it will either fail or just go in to a loop of "connect-retrying - fail"
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Thanks but I can't justify the money for now :p

Hmm this is weird. I wouldn't be completely surprised if SlimSaber and official SlimKat didn't work, because official Slim hasn't had bluetooth updates for some months and probably needs them. I can use bluetooth just fine on SlimSaber with other phones, but don't have a watch to test with. [MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION], is this similar to what you're seeing in your bacon thread?

Hey Umm, I've a 'bug'.. When there's a 'new' heads up notification, some weird tunes play up. I've no idea what it is and how it comes but it was really freaking me out since the last update. I was like where the hell is this sound coming from :eek: later I noticed it's when a new heads up notification comes. What should I do? :|
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Hmm is it per chance your message tone is set wrongly? My brother had this the other day actually. He couldn't figure it out, when he got a message some weird noise would play (not the message tone he had set). Try to re-set your default notification sound and test.

Nothing was changed in relation to the sounds.. there were changes to heads up, but only 2 builds ago. These were to move heads up to their own section under settings-interface, and to add colour & transparency options.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Royal King:
Ok I think i found the problem. My default tone was normal but WhatsApp tone got changed somehow. So well.. I think it's ok now! That tune was kinda scary man. Started like "Hahahahaha tudu tudu tuu tudu tudu tuu" sounds funny but not at 3 am when you're almost about to sleep :eek:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Hahah I love it :D

Whatsapp is a coding nightmare (not from personal experience), but it uses non-default system streams for its sounds. So setting default sounds doesn't necessarily work for Whatsapp, simply because it wasn't coded according to Google's guidelines. This is also why sometimes quiet hours won't mute Whatsapp sounds. It's an app bug not a ROM bug :(
[Nexus 5 Android Development] :
Heya, I'm back with the feedback I promised :) I'll start with battery life. I'm not going to comment on the generals or SOT because it's depended on signal strength, usage and personal settings (the usual). But I do want to mention that your build seems to do a good job with deep sleep and I'm also not seeing any system-caused wakelocks that shouldn't be there. So in that sense battery with your build is as good as a rom/kernel will influence. I don't even feel the need to try Code Blue as I have a hard time imagining it could do a better job. I tend to average 4,5 hours SOT with these SaberMod builds and I did the same with your build while having almost 3 days of usage (light weekend phonewise :> ).

Secondly stability: I don't know what else to say than this:

I had no problems converting to ART and in fact it seemed faster than usual (but I'm prone to placebo so take that with a grain of salt). I haven't had any crashes, FC's or reboots and all settings seem to work as they should. The build is snappy as are all of the Slim builds with SaberMod. So far the only literal bug I could find is the Google Camera lens blur thing which was already mentioned in the OP so no complaints there. I don't use lens blur anyway because I prefer using a good angle to create a more natural blur from DOF.

All in all it seems a keeper. I think I'll stick with this for a while just because I hate redoing all my setup stuff over plus I can't see that Android could get any better until L and perhaps even that will take a while to feel as good as this. Thanks for the build [MENTION=4851213]Hopper8[/MENTION] :)
