People on a blind test n6 said they noticed a difference. If it doesnt make any difference and you can provide me solid proof then I'll remove it.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] californicated:
My post was no criticism of your decision to switch to uber tc, rather my personal opinion. Just keep using it, I'm fine :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] zephiK:
I never said it was criticism, I was just adding on what you say. The experiences on other devices can be different. For shamu, it appears to have made things more buttery smooth.

Uninstalling UKM fixed the WiFi showed as always on in battery chart.

It seems to not be compatible with Uberkernel, but I can't explain why.

I apologize for filling the thread with my "issues", but maybe my mistakes could help someone else facing the same conditions.

Kernel Flashing

hi [MENTION=1978554]zephiK[/MENTION] Sometime back you used to have instructions to flash a kernel. You had mentioned that after flashing the kernel we must flash some selinux zip file. I am not really sure what that did, but you did mention that it is not a mandatory step.

Recently, I noticed that you have removed the instructions for that step. I actually have a copy of that file, and I always flash it after flashing kernel. I know its not mandatory, but can you shed some light on why it was removed, and what it did (in relatively simpler language, I am not a developer, just a happy flashaholic ;))

and thanks for fixing the back button color bug :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] AquilaDroid:
I've had this same issue with the same environment as yours but since my idle battery drain is 0.1 - 0.2 percent per hour at night I haven't worried about it. (Not in airplane mode)

Latest dirty flash + slim mini + code blue running smoothly. Thanks for the great work!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] zephiK:
Because it causes too much confusion and I don't like seeing the same people ask about sepolicy whether or not they can use the old one or if I have to re update.

It's not a big deal if you don't flash it. Simplicity is important to chroma, and I don't want confusion. I hope that answers your answer :)

hi,

many thanks for this ROM - i love it!!!

3 qestions:

a) how i can use the cLock widgets in Chroma menü - on lockscreen any possibillty to enable them (like in older versions of android)?

b) i'm using Lock screen changer, but nothing happens (also after reboot) does it work, can you help?

c) i updated to new Chroma 12.May - but the superSu app disapeared from the menü...but seems to work. can i'm somehow fix or update this?

many thanks!

adddy
[Nexus 5 Android Development] zephiK:
As of lollipop they removed the ability to add widgets to the lock screen. I have no intentions of reverting that either.

Don't use lock screen changer and have no idea.

Supersu is built into the rom, it should be included in settings above about phone.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] adddy2:
hi,

thanks for feedback!

but what is the sense of the cLock in Chroma menü...just for understanding.

and i make a dirty update from latest version to new version but...as mentioned the app supersu disapeared :( can i change it somehow?

maybe others have any idea

about why Lock screen changer is not working...or just me!?

thanks for support!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Koopa777:
I noticed two things personally. First is slightly better deep sleep, which is in-line with my experience with SaberMod toolchains in the past. Second is that it is a bit snappier, which is again a quality of SaberMod. Seeing as how UBERTC is basically an improved and open-source version of SaberMod, I'm not surprised. I say keep it! :D
[Nexus 5 Android Development] zephiK:
Clock is in chroma menu because if you use status bar weather, the weather is retrieved from clock which has a api to obtain the wesrher

No. Supersu is in menu and not all drawer.

Don't know what that app that is.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Gallardo994:
I usually use Tapatalk to measure rom and kernel performance because that crap lags everywhere. Except Chroma, especially with the newest build :) Keep it up!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] zephiK:
Tapatalk has actually gotten quite nice after these last couple of updates. I'm quite surprised.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Rikzaah:
I seem to get the lockscreen shortcut bug still after clean flashing latest build. I tried OptiPop, and it did not have this problem. :)

Optipop's changelog stated that "Remove duplicate lockscreen shortcuts menu entries (Thanks [MENTION=5524785]CristianChavez[/MENTION])". I think this has something to do with it.

Here is OptiPop's Github, I don't know if it helps. https://github.com/OptiPop

Edit: Total nope for the "Remove duplicate lockscreen shortcuts menu entries". My bad, but still could you zephiK take a look?

Ubertc build is way smoother

Nexus5 5.1.1
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vsot13:
+1 for Ubertc. Definitely is not placebo. Feels snappier. With Uber kernel is just dream combo

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Phazmos:
It absolutely does make a difference. Smooth is what Chet was looking for over sabermod tcs, and ubertc was the fruit of that labor. He had mentioned this here, I believe, and on g+.

Having been a long time follower of uber kernel, I found the difference most obvious.

Battery may be a little less, and benchmarks may be a smidge lower, but that wasn't a concern compared to that baby bottom smoothness.

If anyone doesn't think so, load 1 of his kernels from a month or 2 ago, and then 1 of the latest test kernels (well, maybe not the last test, that seemed to take a step backwards) - try scrolling through a long list - no more hiccups. And I'm not talking about tweaking fling velocity and ...... dam ....... I forget the other tweak ...... but I'm sure you know what I'm talking about, I believe chrome has these tweaks.

There's a good reason I'm starting to see other roms using ubertc - it is good - probably the best blend of battery, performance, and smooooooooooth.

Dirty flash

No soup for you

---------- Post added at 10:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:09 PM ----------

I thought Chet mentioned linaro was the key to smooth, and saber was the key to performance.

Ubertc = saber + linaro + some voodoo magic found in a far off mystical land.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Sc4ryB3ar:
It's killing me, I can't convince anyone over in the G3 boards to use UberTC.....even though after thoroughly reading through, and following it since inception....its the best of everything....I just want my damned N5 back :( I miss the development over here....at least I get to keep it as a wifi only device and let the kids play with it....
[Nexus 5 Android Development] swirly05:

[MENTION=1978554]zephiK[/MENTION]

Thanks for this awesome ROM, I had a Nexus 4 but I dropped it a few weeks after you've started the ROM topic there, I thought sh*t that was like the best custom ROM experience I've ever had, I looked for another phone and wanted to buy the OnePlus One due it's good price but then I saw no Chroma or anything from zephiK soooo I got myself a Nexus 5 to still enjoy your awesomeness.

EDIT: Does everyone has the optimizing apps when it's first booting?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] zephiK:
Correct. It'll show optimizing apps on first boot, the phone is optimizing apps even if it wasn't showing.

By showing the user the progress, they'll know that their phone isn't stuck in a boot loop.

Noticed a typo in the clear all recents position menu on 5/12 build. ROM is smooth as hell

And also, this is probably a launcher or widget issue, but is this normal? Google now launcher, when trying to label a folder the widget blends with the status bar

Hi [MENTION=1978554]zephiK[/MENTION] , I've just created my first ever pull request on github with polish translations for Chroma. I hope I did it right :) Please check it when you have some time.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ali8383:
Thank u for this rom i'm using it over the month , and i don't have a reason to change it , its include everything i need , "features , stability , performance" , so thank you "dev" ??

One question : I'm using code blue kernel from a long time , and this rom coming with franco kernel .

If anyone using franco kernel please tell me how is the battery life and performance ?

I know i have to decide by my self , but i want your suggestions ?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Rikzaah:

Found a new recents menu bug. Can you guys replicate it with Chrome?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] nmlssit:
Does Chroma support init.d scripts? If not, how can I make a script to run at every boot and survive rom updates? The SystemUpdateService wakelock is a pain in the ass.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Won't be druv:
What is the bug? Mine behaves exactly like your phone. Swapping the last two apps over with a long hold on recents and selecting the last used app with a short press. Both of which, I assume, are features of chroma.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] tcat007:
I found code blue and Franco almost identical battery, between 4 and 4.5 hrs sot. Trying uber now. They all "feel" about the same imo.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Rikzaah:
When I am in Chrome and press recents the Chrome tab jumps to it's place unlike the other tab in the video.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Konsumhaus:
I think your feeling is right;)

Acutally I´m running electroactive kernel which seems snappier for me...but needs a little bit more battery:cowboy:

Ambient display not show when screen off. It is a bug :(
[Nexus 5 Android Development] zephiK:
Hm not sure how that typo came about. I'll have a look.

I'll have a look, i hope there isn't syntax error. I have a bad history when someone does pull request and then there's syntax errors.

Jut the other day someone did a pull request that attempted to change the English strings into Italian.

No. And that wakelock is already patched in the rom since March.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] nmlssit:
Thank you, i'll take a look :)

Seriously? Since i flashed Chroma (and Purity before it) my Google Play Services prevent the phone from going into deep sleep, using the radio signal more longer than i use the phone.

I checked Google Service Framework with the app Disable Service and SystemUpdateService was unticked, so now i am testing this script plus Chroma Privacy Guard.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] yaatzek:
Thanks, I saw that Italian translation but I thought he didn't copied it to values-it folder and changed the original chroma strings xml.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] zephiK:
It's already patched as I already mentioned, why would I lie? something else is causing Google Services to leak battery, it isnt systemupdateservice. Your screenshots show absolutely nothing, you have to use betterbatterystats to debug it further to see what other wakelocks is coming from that app but it isn't Systemupdateservice. My battery sleeps like a baby at night.

https://github.com/zephiK/android_frameworks_base/commit/93bd6cf4383434bcde2e1f9072fd10b13d725d07

https://github.com/zephiK/android_vendor_chroma/commit/9741ff5771d04f911ae12f92d758211f9b9dcd7d

The italian translations are filled with syntax errors, I'm sorry but I'm not going to go out of my way to fix up someone's translations in syntax when they messed with it. All they have to do is change the text in between > and <.

I highly recommend people to use a XML validator before submitting a pull request. http://www.w3schools.com/xml/xml_validator.asp - it saves me time as well as yours.

Your polish translations are perfect though, the syntax is perfect. I don't know Polish but great work on translations.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] bjbinc:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] tassos_chry:
Can't get the unofficial xposed to work too!

As to your question i'm not really sure but according to this: https://developer.android.com/about/versions/android-5.1.html

API Level: 22

Android 5.1 (LOLLIPOP_MR1) is an update to the Lollipop release that offers new features for users and app developers. This document provides an introduction to the most notable new APIs.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] yaatzek:
Thanks :) I went through all the xml stuff back when I was translating good old slimkat, but I'm not good at github and all that developer thingies ;) glad it worked though, looking forward for the next build.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] zephiK:
Xposed doesn't work because Chroma (as well as other ROMs) use ART everywhere. Which means we use ART even on the framework files and whatnot, the method of Xposed injecting doesn't work on the way Chroma is configured (as well as other ROMs that use ART everywhere).

I'll save you the time and just say... don't use Xposed or go to another ROM that doesn't use ART everywhere. Most roms have switched to using ART everywhere as well.

:D I already started on the next build, just some bug fixes here and there. Nothing too significant just yet.

[MENTION=5429314]Kroniq[/MENTION] great catch. Not sure why it was "Bottoms center" or why no one else caught it sooner, it's fixed now.

Try Google camera from play store.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] pianistaPL:
That's what I'm trying to use. I don't use AOSP camera.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] zephiK:
No, you have double tap to sleep on status bar and navigation bar. It's redundant and much slower to use a screen off tile when there are more efficient methods.

This rom is lightweight and I don't want to clutter features that aren't going to be used by other people. I'll probably end up stripping some features from chroma that aren't being used to maintain a slim build.

Your kernel is causing that problem. Use another one.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] frikakwa:

Hey zephik I love your rom and I feel like it was made by me and it has pretty much every feature I missed from kitkat. I have a question/suggestion. Back when I used to use slimkat there was a tile for reboot/recovery/bootloader it was nice only because it meant less power button wear. Is that a feature you'd consider? If not it's no big deal because you can do it with the power button.

Has anyone been able to get CF lumen to work? I have not been able to get it to work without flashing franco kernel again, however when I do that I lose connection to the camera. I really like this rom and don't want this to be a deal breaker.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Aditya Srinidhi:
Hmm, but I did a clean install the first time, wiped all partitions before flashing ROM... Is this common that it appears as 16gb in storage even though it's actually 32gb version?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] zephiK:
Crowd in costs money, doesn't it?

And yeah I'm not a fan of the pull requests, it works but it severely makes my commit logs extremely dirty and not clean. I've been denying the requests and just cherry picking them.

It does get annoying when a user messes up the syntax error.

Whatever works. Just check xml syntax, if there's a compiling error I shouldn't be the one fixing them.

No. Just get an application that can do that, this is a lightweight rom and is intended not to include every single little thing.

Button wear isn't my problem, the phone has been tested for large number of button presses.

It must be missing in the Def config, just keep flashing the kernel. I don't feel like updating another kernel.

[BUG]

Some tiles behave weird when the Quick Settings panel is expanded by using Nova Actions (or also GMD Gestures). In particular, they don't show any change, even though they actually work. For example, if Wi-Fi is off and I tap the related tile, the tile doesn't change aspect, but Wi-Fi is actually turned on.

Here you can find a short video I've recorded which describes the problem perfectly: https://www.dropbox.com/s/lrbu5nh0v4ihvaw/tiles_bug_chroma.mp4?dl=0

I don't think any log is necessary for this bug report, but if you need them just ask.

I'm using chroma_hammerhead-ota-2015-05-12, clean install, Xposed not installed.
