Okay, I think now I know what the problem with the ambient display is. I am using Lux for automatic brightness and it seems it doesn't work well with the ambient display feature. Does anyone know how I can fix that? I still want to use Lux.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] fajarlazuarding:
Too bad, it looks good tho. Thanks anyway?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] buffal0b1ll:
In my experience ambient display shouldn't be used on nexus 5 anyway. I'm almost certain it's not available on stock nexus 5 image. I used to use it on another ROM BITD and I'd notice the screen backlit black while sitting on the nightstand in the dark. I learned that the fix was to turn off ambient display. Never looked back.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] fKm:
Without Lux the ROM and the ambient display work very well. Is there an option to extend the display on time when a notification arrives?

Does it make any sense to compile this ROM with a custom toolchain like UBERTC?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] KreAch3R:
Yes, it's not on stock image. But I have only used it on mako and hammerhead, and I like it, that's why it's enabled. It can be disabled from Display Settings, anyway :)

Yes, again, by using overlays. BTW, did you find the post?

For me, it doesn't. I have never personally found any tangible difference between roms with tons of customizations and without any. It's just snake oil to me (yet).
[Nexus 5 Android Development] fKm:
Yes I found it. Haven't tried it though but thanks for the info ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] gartenriese:
Thanks for the ROM, I like it so far. However I found some bugs.

1. I can add a widget for a quick dial, however when clicking on it it says the application can't be found. What app am I missing? Has it anything to do with me having the micro gapps only?

2. In the options of do not disturb, I can allow marked contacts to go through, however I found no way to mark contacts. Supposedly it should be possible in the contacts app, but it's not.

Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Bonusbartus:
1. I am using the micro gapps too, I can add quick dial without problems (nova launcher) It's the direct call widget from the contacts app.

2. open the contact app and tap a contact. you have to mark it as starred:

tap the star on the top right corner.

the contact in my screenshot is NOT starred. when it is, the star has a white fill.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] gartenriese:
[MENTION=344825]Bonusbartus[/MENTION]: I have the stock launcher. Weird that it doesn't work with that. And thanks for the second answer, I thought that was only the marker for favorites on the dialer.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] fKm:
Is it possible to exclude some apps when I build this ROM from source and to include the themeable apps like Google Contacts and Dialer?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Jacoben:
Is there a hold Power Button to turn on flashlight feature?

[Nexus 5 Android Development] KreAch3R:
Yes for the first question, like in every other ROM built from source. You shouldn't do the second part, better flash them afterwards.

I hope the answers above covered your cases. I wouldn't call them bugs after all, right?

No.

Welcome!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] gartenriese:
I guess it's a bug with the stock launcher and not with your rom ;)

[Nexus 5 Android Development] KreAch3R:
Wait, I just re-read your post, I'll try it in a clean flash. If I find out it happens here too, I'll investigate for a quick fix. Honestly though, the stock aosp launcher is just a placeholder until you install a real launcher (I am a Nova lover). I'll report back.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] KreAch3R:
So, I tested it. :) You just have to give the PHONE permission to the AOSP launcher, and the shortcut works. It's badly coded by Google/AOSP on that part, it should ask to be granted permission, not to say "the app isn't installed".
[Nexus 5 Android Development] gartenriese:
Thanks for investigating, really great support! :) Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] askor:
Can you add arrows while keyboard is opened to move coursor? It's much easier to use it instead vol up/down :(
[Nexus 5 Android Development] KreAch3R:
I hate the looks of it but I somewhat understand the need for it. But I don't think it fits, as there is another way to move cursor already. And for heavy writing on Android (f.e. developing) there are specialised keyboards out there which must have that as an option. I think it fits more to a keyboard rather the SystemUI. So, I ask this to everyone that requests it. Do you know you can swipe the cursor handle far away from the cursor position (long press on the handle, then swipe down without lifting the finger, now you can see everything on the cursor position and you can go left and right pretty easy)? And if you do, why don't you like it?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] askor:
For me it's more precise.

Hello firstly, what a kick ass ROM. Buttery smooth and stable AF.

So here is my question, where can I change the quick setting toggle. I dont like it that when I pull the notification panel from the right,it directly pulls the quick settings. Is there an option where I can change it?

Thanks :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] HiM@L:
no... you can't change but there's overlay you can search that changes it... (but not sure to what).. search in this thread or in community page in Google+.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] buffal0b1ll:

I came across this ROM, but I didn't realize there was a shamu build as well. It appears that it supports layers ? I did see it is not pre-rooted so I'll flash SuperSU and Gapps as well................
[Nexus 5 Android Development] DesertVelo:
I have been using this ROM on my N6 in addition to the N5. You will not be disappointed! Cannot comment on layers, however, I do no use the feature. SuperSU 2.65 and OpenGapps nano is my setup.

Sent from the singletrack...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mikeprius:
Thanks for the heads up. I think layers should work, but I have everything else. Looking forward to giving this a go ! :good:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] KreAch3R:
Yes, it's update time, and it's going to be an ugly one. Google still uses separate branches.

Krexus currently supports N4, N5, N6, N7 (2012), N7 (2013), 5X, 6P. Feel free to flash any variant. :)

Of course it supports Layers (everything), and yes you have to flash any other mod you want. Read the FAQ. :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Alpha-Retard:
Great rom. Super stable and performance is amazing. Using it with elemental x. I have two questions though:

1. I can't find the option that swaps the volume buttons in landscape. How do I turn it off?

2. I have for the most part of being on hammerhead used CM and got very used to its audio fx. Since this is AOSP based and I have don't have the loudest sounding earphones what do you suggest I use in place of audio fx. I tried viper but I can't get notable difference as compared to stock equalizer out of it. Any other options out there?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Spectrum75:
1) Settings > Display > Rotation > Advanced

2) Not using audio mods, so can't help you there :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] KreAch3R:
Hey, thank you, welcome!

2. I don't use audio mods either. But most people are satisfied with either nothing, or the default Equalizer or Viper4Android. If I were you, I'd search for audiofx flashable zips.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Alpha-Retard:
[MENTION=5638350]Spectrum75[/MENTION] [MENTION=3190122]KreAch3R[/MENTION] thank you both! I actually got viper to work the way I wanted after a lot of searching around. So second problem fixed as well. :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] buffal0b1ll:
I cobbled together an AudioFX flashable zip that works on my hammerhead and shamu. PM me if you want it.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] KreAch3R:
Hahahahaha :laugh: You should share that AudioFX .zip though. I guarantee you they are going to ask for it when you don't have it. :D
[Nexus 5 Android Development] buffal0b1ll:
Here's the zip. AudioFX pales in comparison to all the magic v4a can do with sound. But it fits my use case: I almost never use headphones and really just need something to lower the bass over Bluetooth to the car stereo so deep voices in podcasts don't rattle the doors

I use the Custom Quick Settings app to add a AudioFX tile too.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] HiM@L:
i will definitely check this out with new update.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] db77:
After dirty flash (Wipe Cache, System and Dalvik) : "Services Google Play s'est arrêté" (Google Play has stopped)

So, I'll try a clean flash...

EDIT : no led for battery :( I've flash Blu_spark because it works fine before but no :(
[Nexus 5 Android Development] askor:
Strange, I'm now on stock+cataclysm mod (lastest android) and no led for battery too with Elementalx. Maybe it's related with android .
[Nexus 5 Android Development] db77:
I need this led ! Because my USB in car is not very stable and I want to see if it is ok when driving.

I go to try another roms to see if the same problem is also present.

EDIT : Pure Nexus has led battery working :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] 3vilo:
Hello,

Just a little problem with the latest update : i can't install Google dialer from the Playstore 'cause it says that my device is not "compatible"...

Am i the only one ?

Thanx
[Nexus 5 Android Development] KreAch3R:
Let me check that. Which GApps did you flash?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mikeprius:
I didn't download the prior version for shamu b/c I knew a newer release was coming out due to the newest Nexus factory image. When I downloaded the ROM it was less than 100 mb. I initially thought it was a partial download, but upon review that is the real size ? I about fell out of my chair.

If so wow. Most usually run 300mb+ What got trimmed to make it so lean ?? :good:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] KreAch3R:
No it almost definitely is a partial download! I hope you didn't flash it. It goes to 300+ here too. Shamu includes all vendor files inside and it blows up.

We should really not continue this conversation here, because this is a hammerhead thread. The shamu thread is coming, but until then, please post at the community under "Nexus 6 section. :D
[Nexus 5 Android Development] trawel:
I've clean flashed and not sure but for me this information under network name (like saved, obtaining connection, etc) is in english while system language is set to polish (my native language).
[Nexus 5 Android Development] 3vilo:
The latest nano open gapps
[Nexus 5 Android Development] KreAch3R:
Where is that? Please provide screenshots

I just tested 3 clean flashes.

1) 08/04 with OpenGApps it showed up as incompatible

2) 09/03 with OpenGApps it showed up as incompaible

3) 08/04 with Slim Zero GApps it could be installed

You get the point. This should be an OpenGApps problem. Pinging [MENTION=6404745]MastahF[/MENTION]

Also, take a look at these posts: here and here or try to use BaNks (the latest update wasn't flashing for me in Multirom 3.0) or Slim Zero

I didn't have this problem (while I use Google Dialer) because I installed it during GApps flashing with the Google Dialer keyword.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] HiM@L:
did you clean flash?? coz my battery led is working like a charm... it's definitely something on your side.

also.. just so you know... you need to flash kernel that supports led charging... basically all custom kernels for N5.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] KreAch3R:
Just saw this, what do you mean?

[MENTION=360189]db77[/MENTION], nothing is changed about the battery charging light and it works here too (with elementalX). And yes you should have done a dirty flash, as I say in the post. You also have to enable it under Sound and Notification, have you done that?

---------- Post added at 05:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:45 AM ----------

I am with Pure Nexus now, but I return to Krexus this day and try to don't miss "sound and notification" :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] trawel:
Spoiler content hidden.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] KreAch3R:
Hello, read my last post. You can use other gapps or flash it.

I get this all the time. Re-try it till it finishes. It's a network situation. All play around with repo sync's arguments, you may find one that protects from that. I don't care enough, I just re-try it.

It's like this because Krexus uses the stock hammerhead kernel, straight from Google (where the led doesn't work). It has to be disabled as default. And no you can't change colors from the UI in Krexus, you have to use any of the provided layers overlays or create your own. :)

There is no AOSP DeskClock in the latest build. Where did you get it? You should use the Google Play Store Clock from now on. It's mentioned in the changelog.

Hey there, good job. It's the same here in greek (I haven't seen it because I use US). Do you know if this is not the case in stock or in other ROMs? If it's not, I'll have to see what produces this.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] db77:
[MENTION=3190122]KreAch3R[/MENTION] : For information : I wipe full, I flash last update and when reboot it asks me to install SuperSU. I says Ok and swipe to validate.

But my Nexus 5 don't boot.

So, I retry and says NO at the question about SuperSU and then my Nexus5 reboot.

After that, I reboot in recovery, flash SU2.71 and blu_spark and all works fine. Thanks :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] KreAch3R:
You should never flash SuperSU with TWRP. I'll add it to the FAQ. Enjoy :)

please implement brightnessslide and doubletap to sleep on statusbar. best Features ever!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] KreAch3R:
Hello, what got complicated? Unless you are talking about the f*kups Google is doing in AOSP. Because they are completely messing around with it.

Exactly. :)

Hello, it's great to hear that! Unfortunately, both have been requested since the beginning of time and they shouldn't be getting in. I don't think they fit the Android UI UX at all. I use the phrase "no stock, non custom ROM user could ever find out on his/er own that swiping your finger left and right without any visual hint changes the brightness. The same couldn't happen with double pressing system elements. These don't happen anywhere else in the system. They are (useful for some) gimmicks." (You can find more of this same answer everywhere, on this thread, on the other threads and google+).
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Website!:
well, I didn't mean to blame you [MENTION=3190122]KreAch3R[/MENTION], but things got a bit complicated, you must admit that. even with the clean flash, people are saying Open Gapps now don't work properly, so now we should flash Banks... which means that basically I need to spend couple of hours (even with Titanium Backup) to get things in order. :sigh:

anyway, it is what it is. I thank you for your efforts. couldn't be happier with this rom. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] MastahF:
This is not a problem, but intentional as described in the post you did link

We don't install the Google Dialer framework files (anymore) if the user does not install the Google Dialer from the Open GApps package istelf, because it is "bad behavior" if installing frameworks on /system/ if not installing the associated app on /system/ too.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] trawel:
Unfortunately, I can't tell if it happens on stock or any other ROM (I've been using Krexus for quite some time) but as far as I remember, on previous build, there wasn't that situation (the text was written in system language, not English) but don't know if Google has done something in newest update or is it just some small glitch. I don't have problems with that, I just wanted to let you know.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] KreAch3R:
I know, I didn't take it as a blame :D But saying "Open GApps don't work" is a bit of a stretch (see also below). It is a very specific case where you can't install Google Dialer through the Play Store. That's it.

Anything else though, yes you may need a couple of hours to set it up again after a clean flash. But this is necessary this time. (You can certainly make that faster though. I can be up and running after a completely clean flash in 30-50 min tops (and that is, if I let it download all apps first. You can restore pretty much everything, and that makes it even faster).)

Now that's some first hand Open GApps support :D Thank you for the off thread response.

I see. So it is as I imagined it when I read your answer in the other thread. I agree with the "bad behavior" point. I am all for not installing unnecessary stuff. But in this case, isn't this a double edged sword? I think that, while it makes sense for devs, most people will call that "a bug". They expect to install everything Google from the playstore.

And the people that like small packages should be thought about, too. They expect to flash the minimum possible and then install only what they want, right? So for example, "if Youtube is installable, why Google Dialer isn't"?

IF the stock package installed Google Dialer by default and you had to specifically ask for it not to be installed, then I think it's safe to assume that this same user isn't going to install it from the PS (and so you can avoid including the libs). But until then, I think it's safer to go against it and install it. Or, a flashable "GoogleDialer-enabler" zip could be created. Can you tell me the name of the necessary libs?

P.S. You can quote me in the opengapps thread if you think it's a better place to continue the discussion

You were actually right! I found that Google messed up and between the two branches, they have removed a LOT of related translation strings (wtf :eek:) I'll try to add them back in the next build.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] halfbytecode:
[MENTION=3190122]KreAch3R[/MENTION] Are you using Uber toolchain to compile the ROM? Would also appreciate if you could include optimization flags like cpu, mcpu, mtune to boost the performance, if you're not doing already.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] metal_messiah:
KreAch3R, can you provide color navbar mod to your latest ROM, please?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] KreAch3R:
No, I don't touch the toolchains and I don't intent to (at least, yet). I'm been around since two editions of Android and 3 phones, I have never seen any significant difference between custom toolchains and stock, besides weird non debuggable problems. Until I can actually see some difference in my hand, I choose stability over something experimental. I believe Krexus is as smooth as it gets on our devices already.

I don't know which mod you are talking about. Are you talking about providing a UI to change navbar color with a color picker? Then no.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] metal_messiah:
no, I'm about changing framework-res.apk, something like this: http://xdaforums.com/crossdevice-dev/sony-themes-apps/guide-how-to-tint-navbar-color-to-t3180593
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Bonusbartus:
I just did a clean flash of your latest rom, with the same OpenGApps file I used on your previous version (micro 20160310).

Somehow I am missing the/any camera app? is this intended, or am I doing something wrong?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] KreAch3R:
Ah, OK, I see. Unfortunately no to that, too. It's a clear deviation from the stock way, and besides that, I honestly don't like that at all (I agree with Google on this one, and I'm paraphrasing, "the navbar shouldn't be colorful so as to not distruct the user").

No, you're not, there is no Camera in Krexus. You download whatever you want. :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] halfbytecode:
I actually maintain a private kernel for nexus 5, and I use UberTC 4.9 along with optimizing the build for nexus 5's CPU architecture. The difference is actually enormous, from GCC and UberTC without any optimization flags.

One person, I shared the kernel with, also confirmed the same, and also added that nexus 5 has never felt so smooth, and could be used for a good 2 more years this way.

Just thought I would ask, as I have thoroughly tested my kernel and stability is as good as stock, with no (random) reboots for months.

Otherwise I do indeed agree with not seeing any difference, prior to this. Other people may not be optimizing the build for our device, or doing stuff differently. Like you said, just switching toolchains may not make things better.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] phantom146:
I agree with [MENTION=1058435]KR3[/MENTION]acher with the uberTC builds and optimization my conclusion has not been changed(for years now) that I dont see any improvements no noticeable enhancements with recompiled builds. The only thing that would make users flash it is because of the additional "cool" name claiming it was "compiled with latedt uberTC with optimizations and performance enhancements" and yet the current krexus is still as smooth as butter.

For the people who have trouble flashing krexus, Im quite puzzled since I haven't got any errors right fron the start. If there was a problem with a google package then reflash with a new gapps and thats it. For SU use 2.68 since 2.71 is buggy and is more of an "experimental" version.

No problems here running blu_spark r73
