It's for when you use other kernels that isn't in any kernel format to retain the sepolicy of the rom. If you don't flash it then it's not the end of the world and that your phone will work the way it normally does.

OK I have an issue with that last few builds, WiFi keeps turning off when screen is off, this is an issue for me since most of my communications are over the internet and I keep missing calls, it's set on always on under the settings and it's not a kernel issue since I have this for 3 weeks now

[Nexus 4 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
Hello guys, I'm on latest build with latest gapps- no modifications to system everything as comes with ROM.

Still I'm seeing Google services in battery. Any clues?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] hamma:
Why shouldn´t they be there :confused:

The are running, so they use battery.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
I saw this post and thought that it should be there in battery. May be I misunderstood it :confused:
[Nexus 4 Android Development] hamma:
Battery usage has nothing to do with wakelocks.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] aceo07:
I just replaced Frank with this Chroma. It's adds a bit of features that are missing from Frank. Round battery status, privacy guard, and network activity. Awesome! It's nearly perfect.

I just wish it had fast charging enabled. I ended up using Unleashed kernel and Synapse to enable fast charging. It's way too slow without fast charging enabled.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
You mean things displayed in battery usage, right?

I'll search more on this thing :)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] hamma:
Right
[Nexus 4 Android Development] zephiK:
Fast charging is a kernel feature, not a ROM feature.

Is there an option for configuring the brightness level on ambient display? When using dark layer themes the notifications are so dark (with the brightness being pretty low) that they are hardly to read.

hi i have flashed this rom and the problem of ghost touch or phantom touch is still remain then i flashed stock kernel on it and problem was gone but as soon as i flashed nash kernel camera app is not working i got this message "failed to open camera, camera is under use by other app" similar like this and also fc on camera did any one has solution for it on franco kernel problem of ghost touch is more :crying:

I wish here was more development status and plans rather than already answered searchable questions. I'm here to know more about Zephik's and Syko's joy work progress and to respect their work. Cheers.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] 22sl22:
There isnt a way to change the brightness for Ambient Display. Just turn your normal brightness up or if your finding it darker than usual with a specific theme it may be a bug

You just answered your own question. That's the way things are, how would you feel if you created a piece of art for example and the majority of feedback was from people who don't know anything about art world and were criticising his or her work about things they don't understand

We should be grateful I've seen threads much worse. I spent less than 2 mins reading the xposed 5.1 thread and said to my self never again, some people just don't listen
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ttheodorou:
ghost touches can happen when you have a faulty cable/charger connected to your phone and you use your phone. when disconnected the ghost touches are present too. that is my experience. when i change the charger the ghost touches where gone. maybe is a faulty digitizer. just some thoughts to investigate and i hope your problem is solved.

P.S. when i had this problem on my old phone mostly and on nexus 4 in the beginning i just changed the cable of the charger and the problem was gone.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] spider623:
No
[Nexus 4 Android Development] yellman:
I would create one part of any devs thread to general discussion for majority and the second part here for developers and confirmed testers only as the title says itself. Just my solution. Cheers mate ;)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] tonyking:
in my case if i use kernel other than stock i got this problem of ghost touch

did you know the procedure of changing kernel on this rom if i keep this franco kernel ghost touch problem arises and if i change kernel then camera is not working what kind of situation is this for me :confused:
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ttheodorou:
i've been in that boat changing kenrels/roms but eventually the ghost touches came back until i changed the cable. anyway, hope you fix the problem soon

Hi. I am experiencing problems with my Wifi connectivity. every time i wake uo my phone the WiFi connection is lost and i have to connect manually to the network. Am i the only one having this issues?

I am running the latest Chroma Build (but issue was also in the build before present)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] zephiK:
Wifi is kernel related, not rom.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] :
Would you suggest to try another Kernel to see if the problem persists? Any recommendation which kernel to try? (I am using the standard kernel if the ROM (Franco))
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ttheodorou:
i had some weird behavior of the wifi when my router was set to channel 11-12-13. when i set it to other channels everything was ok. try that maybe it will fix your problem too.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] danielcepa:
Everyone who has kernel related problems should try Semaphore kernel. It has none of the above issues, and is rock solid. Last uptime was 248h, rebooted only to update Chroma. Cheers
[Nexus 4 Android Development] athibanvasanth:
Also check out Quanta kernel. Its based on Franco-kernel and has a good combination of battery and performance. No issues with latest build.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] xenyz:
Semaphore gets points for being the most 'stock' custom kernel: ondemand with touch boost like stock, dynhotplug works like stock mpdecision (albeit with 2 cores minimum instead of 1), stock thermal throttle, GCC 4.7, etc. It's basically a straight upgrade with no downside if you like stock kernel with a few extra features like sound gain control, screen gamma control and double tap to wake functionality.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] zephiK:
I don't even read this thread anymore, there's too many complaints or "wants." Syko has been on vacation and hasn't done anything for two weeks :p

i use the kernel that comes with the rom so in this case it's rom related, also have the issue a few builds now and that means also with the stock kernel, before you went back to franco
[Nexus 4 Android Development] marcus6999:
Is it only me or the new update doesn't have the Franco's kernel anoymore?

I do not experience such issue and I doubt it's rom related... chroma has been running perfectly fine on my mako with the default franco kernel, though it's been nice with HC too.

Hi,

I opened a new community on Google+ to test specific features in Chroma (for N4). Basically I would like to test a new kernel and probably some specific stuff for our mako. FYI it's based on Semaphore.

[MENTION=1978554]zephiK[/MENTION] is ok with this and until Syko came back we are ok :) So feel free to join to community and share your experiences.

I didn't include Franco Kernel because people complained it messed with their AnyKernel, just flash Franco Kernel as a standalone by jolinnard.

Ehh, I'm still the one compiling. It's a test kernel thread, unofficial by me still.

I haven't compiled any special builds for mako

Yup. Chroma will be always your baby... And it's my pleasure to try to make it the best for mako :)

[MENTION=2002216]jolinnard[/MENTION] [MENTION=1978554]zephiK[/MENTION]: Wouldn't it be easier to include Quanta (previously SaberMod) by [MENTION=4217103]zaclimon[/MENTION]? Check with him for permission of course, just an idea. It's already used by many Chroma users I've noticed (including myself). Either way, it's anykernel compatible. See the Quanto OP for features, it's got everything: USB-OTG, dt2w, FauxSound, exponential brightness, Multi-ROM, etc.

FYI: Quanta modifies the ramdisk so it's best to flash the stock Chroma kernel first before flashing Quanta if coming from franco.Kernel or a Chroma build with franco's built-in.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] groovepeppy:
let users decide which kernel they want, it's wiser and put the OP to concentrate on his work
[Nexus 4 Android Development] zephiK:
What he said. I focus on the N6, I just provide what works. People can switch kernels to whatever they want. I don't want to work on ramdisk etc
[Nexus 4 Android Development] avoulk:
Now that the kernel is back to non-franco, do we still need to flash the "repack-n4bootimg-flash-after-kernel-f2fs-04-17-2015.zip" after flashing a new kernel?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] skidaway:
Just wanted to take a minute to say thanks. I've been using the ROM on and off for the last month. It's been working great. I know these threads can be a nightmare for developers to wade through, so just know there are plenty of users like myself who rarely post and we appreciate your efforts.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] nutcase:
Would hells doctor with the tardis mod work with this kernal? If not what would people recommend as a replacement from that. Since I believe but I could be wrong he is taking a break and there is no current working version with 5.1.1
[Nexus 4 Android Development] yochananmarqos:
Users will always be able to decide what kernel they want to use regardless of the included kernel.

I hear ya. It was just an idea. Thanks for sticking around!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] zephiK:
You were never forced to flash it, flash it if you want. Flash it if you don't want to.

It doesn't really matter whether or not you have the selinux changes or not. It'd be good if you did but if you didn't, then it's not the end of the world.

That's why I'm not reinforcing it.

I'm using the rom for a few days and it's great!

Just a question, at the moment t's possible to add buttons to the navigation bar, but it's not possible to set long clicks right?

And if so, any plans on adding long click at some point?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Zinken:
Found a bug in latest build, when having "arrow keys while typing" enabled - navbar buttons gets off center after using keyboard. Nothing major but still...

Using 32dpi for navbar if that matters.

Edit: oh, on clean flash that is.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] svnhvn:
I think that DPI is the culprit. I use 44DPI and nothing goes wrong.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] aceo07:
I started getting ghost/phantom touches on the screen yesterday. Maybe it's due to Unleashed kernel and synapse on this ROM?

It happens very often now, almost every minute. I enabled dev touch options to display where the activity is. There were 2 location that had fast sweeping motions left to right. It happens at the very top, and about 1 inch from the bottom. The lines are perfectly straight left to right.

Update: I just updated to the latest 5/7 rom. It was also happening during the initial app updating process, but I haven't noticed it yet.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ttheodorou:
to those of you who want to upgrade to latest version and use franco kernel beware the camera is broken. i fixed that by saving the kernel of the previous release (franco kernel 217) and restore it on the latest release. so far no problems at all. if you are in need of the kernel ask me and i will upload it

Welcome to the world of ghost touch or phantom touch problem I'm on the same boat bro

Quick solution for this if you use other kernel than stock you well face this problem and I know it's totally annoying or of you are in love with custom kernel you can flash semaphore kernel mine problem of ghost touch is gone totally

Choose according to your need I'm happy with semaphore kernel other kernel are giving this problem and it is not ROM related

Edit - problem strated again what a sorrow i will sell my device as soon as possibleCOLOR="Silver"]

Thanks bro I decided to sold my device until you gave me the idea of trying semaphore kernel it was the last kernel which I haven't tried but turn out to a live savior for me best kernel for me so far problem of weird ghost touch or phantom touch is gone for now I'm really happy with it

Edit - Problem of ghost touch started again
[Nexus 4 Android Development] zephiK:
ABC Kernel :p but yeah... name doesn't really matter, the name kinda grows once its out there.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ihancioglu:
I had a similar problem with my N4.

Firstly occured only with USB charge with my Laptop and some incompatible chargers. After a few months, started touch everywhere on the screen below 40% of battery. Mostly more power needed situations(ringing phone, switching some toggles) I replaced the battery. This problem almost gone. Maybe occurs one time in a week.

You need to swap battery to check If it helps.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] aceo07:
I restored my Frank and it still happens once in a while.. :( I guess my N4 is starting to go. The only software that's still common since it started happening is TWRP and I doubt that would cause it. It also happened a bit while using TWRP.

Really annoying since if I'm not quick to turn off screen it might dial random person or swipe to delete an email. It happens while the usb isn't even plugged in. Perfectly horizontal swipes about 1 inch from the bottom.

I'll flash Chroma again in a few days. Too much time dealing with phone the last couple of days to want to spend more time on it.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] hmillos:
No ghost touches here, but phone is really retarded when charging through USB. Always been like that BTW, does it happens in other phones?

Also, I don't know but I feel stock kernel faster and more battery saving than Franco Kernel.

The kernel is the stock, set the GPU clock to 200, and the CPU min to 350 max to 1200, governor conservative. This governor is amazing, if you don't play games the phone is really fast. If you use chrome, YouTube, WhatsApp and others this governor is fantastic.

Download kernel Tooner o other app for the settings of the kernel.

Wait 2-3 full charge for stabilizing the battery. [emoji1]

Installed Textra- No contacts integration it seems, its not searching from the contacts when typing the names or numbers. I have to enter the numbers manually.

After a while , Outgoing messaging fails and also not receiving any messages.

WHat to do?? Plz help..
[Nexus 4 Android Development] vicelord97:
Messaging app is not built in the rom. You can download third party ones as u did.

And as for the contacts did u sign in with ur google account and sync contacts?

If nothing works then try a factory reset that should fix the problem.

No such pronlems on my phone
[Nexus 4 Android Development] yochananmarqos:
Yes, franco / Quanta has franco's optimized conservative governor.

Huh? I flashed that same BaNkS Gapps release & I know for a fact it has AOSP Contacts built-in. You can install any SMS app you wish & it will use your Google account. No idea why Textra wouldn't work. Myself, I use Google Messenger.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] zephiK:
Messenger was not included because aosp mms is outdated and you can just yet Google messenger from the play store. This is already mentioned in the second post in faq.

I can include it but I rather not because people will just end up using one on the play restore anyways.
