[MENTION=4851213]Hopper8[/MENTION] tnx mate and sorry again....i will wait for the new build,the 8.8 build....tnx!!!!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] fusionjack:
current slimsaber github is almost synced with weekly 8.8 except for settings reorganization and slimlauncher. i'll merge the settings reorganization on weekend because it needs a lot of work. i'm still unsure about slimlauncher.

---------- Post added at 08:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:52 AM ----------

@hopper8: kk4.4 branch should be buildable again :)

for others, i have reverted cm bluetooth changes and switched back to kk4.4 branch which is the same with the official slim. let's have this first for a while and then we can think again whether we want to merge cm bluetooth changes.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
I'd just checked your git on the bus, now I'm home and was already syncing to build :good:

About Slimlauncher, it is really good. Only 1.4 Mb, it is really fast, has quite a lot of features already, and gmillz is working on it almost every day. There are also more features for it which just got merged. :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Flamehell:
Yessss!!!! Finally the blues brothers of the rom, [MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4851213]Hopper8[/MENTION] are back!!!!Gimme gimme some love....givme some love!!!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Build is built :p but you might have to wait till tomorrow until it uploads, upload had failed twice already :( I'll try again in a couple hours, else it'll be tomorrow morning :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mj084:
Can provide this Build if someone want it:)

Ok here it is:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
A new build is up! :D

SlimSaber-hammerhead-4.4.4-20141029.zip

Changes:

-Revert bluetooth changes. This is to be consistent with official Slimkat

-Change from Nova to SlimLauncher. If you plan to still use Nova, you can download it from the play store. Before flashing this build, backup Nova (Nova settings - backup & restore - backup) and then you can pick up where you left off with Nova

-Bump to weekly 8.9, apart from settings re-organisation from weekly 8.8. Fusionjack plans to take a look at this on the weekend, it's a lot of work to merge.

-Updates to toolchains, using latest Sabermod

See the full changelog for all the details.

[MENTION=1239635]mj084[/MENTION], I appreciate your build, but it's probably best to ask before releasing it in future :)

[MENTION=2659927]bobby janow[/MENTION], if you get a spare minute are you able to test the bluetooth on this? No pressure or obligation :)

[MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION], I couldn't see status bar ticker in the changelog or on your git. Did you not push it to your git yet? :p
[Nexus 5 Android Development] DsturbD:
first! lol

downloading now :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Jerry! Good to see you :D

@ all, sorry for the lack of builds lately. Hopefully now that the thesis is handed up I have some more time (I still have exams though :p ). Builds should be much more regular :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] hellsgod:
I've had some fun with "L" in the meantime :) SlimSaber is still on the phone, thanks to multirom :D Will flash it after my idle test of my "L" kernel is done :) Thank you for your efforts :good:

hells
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
So did I :) L is pretty nice! I just love some of the features like built in adaptive brightness and proper lockscreen notifications. Can't wait for slimpop! Good to be back home on SlimSaber though :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Flamehell:
Guys i m wrong,or there is no slimkat launcher?the new one.....anyway....tnx [MENTION=4851213]Hopper8[/MENTION] !!!!!i missed your rom :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] fusionjack:
i still didn't finish merge 8.9 to kk4.4 branch. i only did last night for kk4.4-caf branch. :p

i hope i can do it tonight.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
There is, it's not set to default launcher. Go to settings - home and you can find it there :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Flamehell:
[MENTION=4851213]Hopper8[/MENTION] i already ceck...but there is only google now launcher,launcher,and nova(because i download it by my self...)but nothing more.... :(
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Oh I'm retarded :(

Sorry, I installed slim launcher apk a week back or so to test it for gmillz (slim dev). I forgot I installed it... Like fusionjack said, it's in the caf branch but not for the aosp branch, so it's not in the 10/29 build. My apologies, stupid mistake on my part.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Flamehell:
Don t worry mate....you are still my pusher of custom rom....:D
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bobby janow:
I'll give it a go [MENTION=4851213]Hopper8[/MENTION] either later this morning or in the afternoon. Sykops just released another build too so I'll flash them both if my sdcard has enough space. Let you know about the BT. I have Purity+ on my primary which works so I'm sure with the reverts it will work also.

Edit: BT now works as before. Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Awesome! Thanks for testing, and glad to hear it works as should :) [MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION] might like to hear this as well :)

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Ok everybody, I'm uploading a new build now :D I'll make a summary tomorrow as I'm uploading from my phone, but look out for the status bar ticker and slimlauncher :)

[Nexus 5 Android Development] dead0:
many thanks for the saber builds. haven't used a fusionjack's build since my s2 days (im still running his build on my old s2) :) btw would you consider adding smooth progress bar to your system animation settings?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Good to hear :) I'm not sure what the smooth progress bar is?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] dead0:
something like this: https://github.com/castorflex/SmoothProgressBar

im trying to find the correct link as I know Mahdi rom has it

alternatively I think u can edit progress_indeterminate_horizontal.xml in framework-res\drawable. ive tried decompiling the apk but I must be doing something wrong as apktool is crashing out on me
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Oh I see, I wasn't sure what it was. I'll investigate, although no promises as it's quite likely a lot of work to implement for a particular ROM. With Lollipop around the corner with all its fancy animations, I'm not sure it's worth adding :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Ok, here's the build summary :)

SlimSaber-hammerhead-4.4.4-20141031.zip

Changes:

- Status bar ticker (settings - interface - status bar)

-Optimise I/O scheduling

-Add SlimLauncher. Please backup your Nova settings if you plan to re-install Nova from Play store

-After dalvik cache wipe, optimising apps now shows which app it is currently working on.

- frameworks_base updates

-Update to weekly 8.9 apart from:

-Clean up settings ready for merging of weekly 8.8 settings re-organization

Please see the full changelog for all the changes. Enjoy!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Here's another new build :D (what, no posts since last build summary? :confused: )

SlimSaber-hammerhead-4.4.4-20141103.zip

Changes:

-Add fiops I/O scheduler to kernel. In my past experience, this has been my favourite I/O scheduler. Please test this, but I'm running it for 12 hours and so far I'm really liking it :)

-external_skia updates: optimisations and patches

-EDIT: Please flash SuperSU after the build. It seems superuser is not doing its job. Now use superuser instead of SuperSU. SuperSU updates were causing some issues when they were to be integrated into the build. So now we're back on SuperUser. If you prefer SuperSU, you can still flash the SuperSU zip without issues.

-Latest SaberMod toolchain updates

-SlimLauncher updates

Please see the full changelog for all the details. Have fun!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] SteveMurphy:
Grabbing it now - great to have you and fusionjack back building. Hope everything went well with your thesis.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Thanks mate :) it's gone well I think! Just tying up all the loose ends now :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] hellsgod:
ZEN and FIOPS are my two favorites. I'm using FIOPS quite some time now and its great :) Thanks for the new build (=

hells
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Phazmos:
My understanding is fiops is one of the best, most efficient scheduler out there. Always a favorite.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Cool, hope that you find the same here for FIOPS. I'm testing it since I added it, and it's living up to expectations :D although, hells, I don't imagine you'll be using stock kernel ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Hello everybody, on the latest build, please flash SuperSU zip directly after the ROM to keep root. Apologies, SuperUser wasn't quite correctly implemented... I'm releasing a new build in the morning to fix this. For now, just grab SuperSU zip to flash directly after the ROM. Sorry for the inconvenience.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] tcowl:
Will you be merging the commits for weekly 8.10? It includes the APN fix that should solve the problem sprint users have been experiencing
[Nexus 5 Android Development] fusionjack:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Ok, weekly 8.10 build :D

Notes: Make sure to manually format system when flashing, or SuperSU will back itself up and will still be alive and take over Superuser. So format system manually :p

SlimSaber-hammerhead-4.4.4-20141105.zip

Changes:

-Sync with weekly 8.10

-SuperUser is built into settings - if you clean flash, make sure to enable root for apps in developer settings.

- Enable speakerphone automatically when phone is taken away from ear. Enable this in phone app settings "Automatic proximity speaker"

-Many SLimlauncher updates (including smart launcher, folder icon text colour, more gestures, new icons and more

Please see the full changelog for all the details. Enjoy!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] a63548:
I know what I'll be flashing after I get some sleep. Awesome job Hopper8 and fusionjack! :) Thank you both very much.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Ok guys, apologies for the mess up with the switch over to Superuser. Summary :

- build 11/03 needs SuperSU flash. Build is at fault.

- build 11/05 has working Superuser. I announced it wrong, I forgot to manually wipe system when I flashed it. So, make sure to manually format system when flashing, or SuperSU will back itself up and will still be alive and take over Superuser.

Many thanks for [MENTION=1239635]mj084[/MENTION] for testing and confirming that if just made a dumb mistake :)

Thanks for the feedback guys! Glad to hear it's working well :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Ok people! One day of testing complete. [MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION] had merged some great optimisations to the kernel, but I've been testing for for the last day to make sure things are good :) I'll release a new build tomorrow morning with these changes, and some nice things like screen recover built in :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] fusionjack:
just in case if you don't notice it yet, i changed the screen recorder to chameleon os's one (thanks to ezio84). much better than previous one. you can set the quality of the video and enable/disable mic audio.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Ok people, here it is! :D

SlimSaber-hammerhead-4.4.4-20141110.zip

Changes:

Big kernel optimisations:

-Enable graphite

-Enable memory optimization

-Compile with -Ofast

-Disable some debug flags

-Reduce swappiness to 10%

Due to these kernel changes, I'm seeing some nice scrolling improvements, especially in browser with a lot of images (google + etc). You won't see a difference if you use a custom kernel but that's up to you :p

Other:

- Screen recorder -thanks [MENTION=2095315]ezio84[/MENTION]. First enable it in settings-advanced-screen recorder. Then either long press power button & select to start, or vol up + power. In the changelog it will show 2x screen recorders, the first one was removed to make way for this one, it's much nicer than the first :D

-Set fiops to default I/O scheduler

-frameworks_telephony: updates & bug fixes

-Various bug fixes/improvements

See the full changelog for all the details. Enjoy!

[MENTION=4851213]Hopper8[/MENTION] ans [MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION]

Do you plan to update the best kk ROM to lollipop ( of course when slim starts having builds)

Best rom ever.. Great performance and battery like always....

My s2 is proud [MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION] thanks
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
It's too early to say with all certainty, we haven't even got official factory images for N5 yet ;) I know source is out, and Slim team are hard at work on SlimLP, so yep, my aim is to have a Sabermod version. I haven't spoken to fusionjack about that yet though :p
[Nexus 5 Android Development] marf28101995:
That is the right way and now its soon but I miss the battery and performance of this ROM ... Happy that you consider to continue thanks ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Joshmccullough:
I just tried installing the new update, first dirty flashing over the previous build where I got a bunch of fc's on androidUI, then I tried wiping clean and flashing but now in recovery I'm getting that /sdcard can't be mounted........anyone else get this/any suggestions on what I can do? I can't flash anything right now and it's wiped for the clean install so I'm kind of stuck.......

EDIT: Nevermind, found a post that I think will solve my problem, I just have to wait until I get home tonight to do it.....grrrrrrr, I hate being stranded!!!!! :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Woah something funky going on there for sure :eek: I hope you can get it fixed, I haven't seen anything like that before sorry.

wow, This is the fastest ROM I have used by far...

One question, theres a way to me to use only LTE/WCDMA data? this is the first ROm that I use and didn't saw that in the options typping *#*#4636#*#* in the dialer, I only saw WCDMA only and LTE only, there's no LTE/WCDMA option?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Good to hear! The aim is speed :D hmm. Well this is the first I've heard of such a thing... Where I live there is no WCDMA. So I can't even check properly myself.

I can say however, that this aspect is the same as on official slimkat. I'll ask a few slim people and get back to you :good:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Flamehell:
[MENTION=4851213]Hopper8[/MENTION] good to see you back my friend...i m still using your rom :) i saw that there is a new build(8.12)is not your right?tnx a lot mate!!!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] fairyshacker:
wifi is slightly weaker compared to few roms i've used recently.

which is the best radio ? is it has to do anything with wifi ?

Rest all is awesome ! Its super smooth !

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Haha that hasn't even been officially announced by slim team yet :p I know it's in the process of building, but no we don't have it just yet. Apart from a heap of device specific changes, the main change is the volume panel timeout setting. Pretty sure we have everything else apart from the number bump from 8.10 to 8.12 :p

Edit: Now it's announced, and yep, the only thing we're missing is the volume panel timeout. Everything else is already included in latest build :good:

Hmm the 'best radio' isn't an easy thing. I'm using the one off KTU84Q, but I really don't think it matters for wifi reception what radio you use. I haven't checked from a code-side of things though.

Do you have signal drops? Or you 'feel' it's slower than other roms? Without a number comparison from a wifi signal analyser (such as https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.farproc.wifi.analyzer) its hard to know. Also is that for the 2.4ghz or 5ghz band?

Sent from my Nexu5
[Nexus 5 Android Development] tcowl:
I've sometimes noticed that if you are utilizing the avoid poor connections settings your overall WiFi performance drops unless you are right next to the router. Perhaps the system is wasting resources constantly checking if the connection is still good?

Also did the settings reorg get merged? I know fusion was working on merging that massive change. I just hadn't heard that it made it yet.

As it stands I'm incredibly impressed with this rom! So fast and smooth!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
Ahh. That's also something to check, I forgot that one. Thanks :good:

And no, not yet. It's just a plain old lot of work unfortunately to merge that... Every extra setting that slimsaber has over slimkat means a conflict & work to fix it. And there's a lot of extra settings :D
[Nexus 5 Android Development] a63548:
[MENTION=4851213]Hopper8[/MENTION] I had an issue on the second to last build. At the time I had the Lollipop bootloader and radio. What kept happening for me on a clean install of SlimSaber, would be in the Mobile Networks Settings, it would state LTE, then randomly go to Edge. I would check, and sure enough LTE was checked so I rebooted. This time, I checked only 3G was the default option, instead of LTE.

So I set it back to LTE, and it would and some times go back to LTE, then randomly drop to EDGE. I am in a great location for T-Mobile, which I don't think is the cause. In addition, I flashed the stock bootloader and radio from 4.4.4 to see if it was affecting anything. Still had the same results. I had taken pictures, but do not have them anymore. Was also going to get a logcat, but forgot to get one.

Mainly just wanted to see if anyone else has experienced this on SlimSaber. On stock SlimKat I am fine and dandy :). Would love to come back though. As always, thank you for such a nicely optimized and insanely fast ROM :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] fabio000:
I solved my problem using intelli3g, there I can select LTE/WCDMA

It' shows "unknow" in the *#*#4636#*# menu but it only connect to 4g/3g avoiding 2g/edge :D
[Nexus 5 Android Development] fusionjack:
i need to start to merge settings reorganization soon because the volume timeout panel is depended on it.

Sent from my One A0001
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hopper8:
That's odd :eek: no I haven't experienced this personally, and yours is the first report I've heard of this. It's hard to diagnose without a logcat or something to go on though. It's odd because the mobile network side of the ROM is identical to official slimkat.

The only thing I can think of, is were you changing network mode using a quick settings tile at all? I noticed on a build a few weeks ago that the network tile didn't seem in sync with the actual settings. Once I used the settings to change network mode (instead of the tile) everything was ok. That's a long shot though, it sounds like yours is a different thing. If it happens again, could you post a logcat?

Nice work, glad you got it going! :)

i didn't pick the new sensor commits for kk4.4 branch in the beginning because i'm afraid it will effect i9100. for hammerhead, there is no problem. there is commit for hammerhead to sync with the new sensor. official slimkat didn't have this. that's why the sensor is broken.

This one is mostly cosmetic changes, they look quite good! :D

SlimSaber-hammerhead-4.4.4-20141112.zip

Changes:

-Android Lollipop style checkboxes, sliders, and some animations. See screenshots

-Android Lollipop fonts

-Android Lollipop bootanimation

-Sync to weekly 8.12, apart from volume timeout. This is dependent upon the settings re-organisation, which is a WIP.

See the full changelog for details. Enjoy!

Its because it don't works properly in touchpal, it navigates in the words predictions instead of the text field =/ (it's a touchpal problem, not a ROM problem, this happens in every ROM with text navigation in the navbar, It also happen in Swype for oppo but seems to work in the "normal" version of swype)

The navigation by the volume keys seems to work

btw using the new build, loved the new lollipop style but I kinda of miss the older bootanimation :P

Ended up reformatting my /data partition and starting everything from scratch; had to sideload a ROM .zip back onto the phone after about 2hrs of fruitless attempts at non-destructive repairs. On the plus side, tho, I've got a TON of storage back! Scary, but at least now I know how to fix it, and half the 'fun' of anything Linux-based is figuring out how to unbreak what you broke, right?

Right? :eek:
