Tint Navbar Icons same as Statusbar background

Hi guys,

If you want a nice visual effect where the navbar buttons have the same colour as the statusbar background, you need to do the following:

Install Xposed

Install the modules FlatStyleColoredBars and Llolistat Reborn.

Set FlatStyleColoredBars as in the attached screenshot below.

I also like to set the Overlay style in the Status Bar section of FSCB to Gradient (like it used to be in KitKat).

Also, I have found the Lolistat Reborn works 100% of the time, especially when paired with FSCB.

I found that PerfectColorBar was trying to do too much and started noticing some inconsistencies, but have zero issues with FSCB and LR.

The only issue is that FSCB "breaks" the dark icons effect of Nova Launcher :(

This bummed me out a little bit, but the positives outweigh this slight negative.. :)

Enjoy :)

Workaround for Privacy Guard not remembering previously allowed root

Hi guys.

This is a tip for those of you on Turbo 4.0 who have the issue where Privacy Guard never remembers that you granted root for an app even though you ticked the box on the toast popup for Privacy Guard to remember root.

The workaround is as follows:

Manually set the option "Root access" to "Allowed" for the app in,

Settings >> Privacy Guard >> Advanced (3-dot menu on top right) >> Superuser tab (scroll all the way to the right).

Since I did that, apps like Xposed never ask for root.
[G3 Android Development] foxtaur:
So umm I tried that Velis app and the paid version of Lux app in an attempt to regain brightness to max (so that it stays that way. One little issue, its not a permanent fix, at some stage the brightness dimms again or it occurs when I plug in slimport. Thi is the only thing thats preventing me from enjoying 4.0.

I'm currently on Venir, hope to return to turbo soon

NB = Also felt that there was less lags on ext4. F2FS ain't too hot across all roms Ive tried on my d852 unit
[G3 Android Development] latino147:
yes! I love the look of FSCB :)

Watch out with the option 'Allow reacting on scroll events' though (additional settings).

Ik had annoying jumply scroll movements in some apps (Metal, Phandroid app) which were caused by this.

If you experience the same set it to OFF
[G3 Android Development] aoleary:
Cool.

Thanks for that. The jumpiness was one of the reasons I uninstalled my FB replacement app.

I prefer Swipe for Facebook to Metal actually.

Rom running great on D855, nice Work! does anyone use any other kernel? or settings? some parts it slows a bit, i just got scroll cache activated, and animations at 0.5x but sometimes it slows
[G3 Android Development] foxtaur:
Currently ACC kernel is in the spotlight but good things await for nebula2e, main dev has to get a new device(broken screen and digitizer) go easy on him.

Get xposed and download amplify ,no wakelock and boost greenify to rid of those pesky wakelocks and idle/greenify your apps you aint running. The lesser processes running a CPU load the better, means less throttle, means faster UI speeds and less tax on OS.

Huge thing too, do not crank the freq all the way up on your processors. That is snake oil, by design the snapdragon cores throttle down to avoid overheating by design. the constant speed switching provokes latency on apps. Lots of IRQ's(interrupt request routines) happening in the background that create a latency when you run games!!!!!!

Furthermore freeze some of those system apps you aint using. Stuff such as those default live wallpapers but do not uninstall them(I somehow find that slows down the system further)

"Ice box " is a good app for that

NB = I repeat it again, do not mess with the voltages. Undervolting is fine to an extent but never overvolt or you'll fry your mobo. Higher PVS numbers are revised versions of the lg g3 chipset and are designed to withstand more payload. This isnt on purpose. This is due to fabrication costs. A smaller die witstands higher temps and is cheaper. Naturally LG like any other tech company would desire to trim down costs and as such you get devices that can be overcloked a bit more while still retaining the same volt lvl. Go ahead and undervolt it if it doesnt affect your performance and further reduces heat
[G3 Android Development] aoleary:
Nice contribution :)

I would second ACC kernel. Works perfectly on Turbo.

Regarding battery saving techniques like Greenify, have a look at the link at the bottom of my signature. It's a step by step guide written by a guy here on XDA on how to reduce battery usage to the minimum whilst still keeping full functionality.

For people not into gaming, I posted earlier in this thread my settings for maximum battery life through kernel settings.

Do you have some layers installed? It may be that.. Did you do a clean install? What gapps do you use, etc
[G3 Android Development] foxtaur:
MSM limiter is no slouch for a hotplug but you gotta use it properly. Mixxing governors isn't also a bad idea but they have to pertain to the same family of ondemand or interactive governors. All these special governors you are using are either a ondemand variant or of the interactive type just with different tweaks and optimizations.

Interactive is more suited for day to day tasks, Ondemand ramps up then goes down but at slower paces with interactive your telling processor to switch consistently from a high payload to low payload and since processor can only processes a given amt of tasks at a time it gets overwhelmed. I like interactive but its just not that great for gaming that needs a consistent freq. On the otherhand Ondemand based governors are battery draining. Guys just do yourselves a favor and slap on a zerolemon or external battery. It'll make your lives easier

Unicorn NavBar

For anyone using "Fling" on NavBar you can swap out Unicorn with image or icon.

I swapped in this image I made and looks quite good. Link: https://mega.nz/#!pdBlGZhR!dAts3sMq8uxO8ou-PW9vh2Bxz3dhu_z8Ew0wvK_dMsY

it has transparent background - it may look huge but don't resize otherwise it looks tiny on Navbar

So the ROM is quite nice but i had two crashes now after installing some layers.

First Time system ui crash and second time bootlop. :(
[G3 Android Development] aoleary:
What are the layers that you tried to install? Did these work on another ROM?

---------- Post added at 07:32 ---------- Previous post was at 07:23 ----------

I think Stoupuppy is talking about not wiping the data partition when installing the ROM. Generally I just go with whatever is suggested by TWRP as default.

Its interesting how some people have issues and others dont..

I have had zero issues. My D855 seems to be quite reliable when flashing ROMs.

I think last time (this morning) it has been framework layer by elegant or dark material layer theme.

Usually i am on broken for the last 6 -7 month and did not have any problems ;)

turbo rom is really nice but two full crashes during layer installation are really annoying :(
[G3 Android Development] aoleary:
Can you PM me the links to the layers and the layers you applied and I can try myself...

Normally I wouldn't offer, but you seem like someone who has made some effort in debugging it yourself.

Nothing worse than those people who say "It doesnt work, fix it for me" :) LOL

Looking forward to it already.

Just wanted to drop a big THANKS to the folk that maintain this extraordinary ROM on the G3.
[G3 Android Development] puya.crisan:
I've tried your method stoutpuppy, same thing sluggish and force closing apps, I'm back on 3.4 waiting for next release, I'm patient 3.4 works for me, not thinking to change it anymore. I'm thinking on changing device and buy a Samsung s6, affordable now with s7 on the market, or wait for the next HTC Nexus t55
[G3 Android Development] latino147:
So did this two days ago, today I went to work without any screen dimming issues! Yesterday morning though I had to remove the battery as the phone was extremely sluggish right from the start and then didn't want to turn the screen on anymore.

The issues with privacy guard at first seemed to still exist, but i haven't seen a single request since yesterday.

So for now I can keep this as a daily driver :D
[G3 Android Development] foxtaur:
Currently on Xenon, will return to Turbo once the brightness bug is fixed in a new build.

I highly urge peeps to undervolt their devices based on their PVS values.(Mileage varies, the higher the PVS the greater the undervolt) greatly deters cores from throttling

Battery life on v4.0

Hi all.

Question: How is your battery life since you updated to v4.0?

I usually lose between 5% - 15% during the night with v4.0, whereas on v3.3/v3.4, I would lose 0% overnight..
[G3 Android Development] latino147:
I use Nights Keeper and Automate It which both have the option to enable/disable 4G, however, on this ROM both apps can't seem to toggle the 4G-status (both are issued root-access).

Anyone knows if there is any other setting in the ROM itself that can fix this?
[G3 Android Development] latino147:
thx for the tip, I can't seem to find a 4G toggle that actually disables data. The 3 that I tried just opened the settings menu :|

I had just created the scripts in Automate It yesterday.
[G3 Android Development] foxtaur:
I tried your method Stoutpupper to fix the brightness bug and it works, the catch is without xposed. Are any of you perchance running xposed, it causes a lot of these issues to resurface, especially the dimming bug
[G3 Android Development] foxtaur:
got it fixed, running xposed v85 and way I did it was de-mounted the data partition in TWRP for every .zip package I needed installing.(after main OS)

Do no wipe /cache nor /dalvik, just go straight into booting rom

NB = Always carry your friendly swiss knife titanium backup

My god, this rom is phenomenal, second place is brokenOS(very stable from the get go) followed by Xenon -- mileage will vary with everyone

[G3 Android Development] aoleary:
Do the scripts need root access? Try executing the scripts in Automate IT and see if they request root access and also if in Privacy Guard Superuser tab that Automate It has root access set to Allowed..

For example, I have a script in Tasker to disable the charging LED's at night and that needs root access so I had to grant Tasker root access
[G3 Android Development] latino147:
I'm using Nova and I did suffer the screen dimming issue BEFORE trying your 'without-data' flash method. Now that's gone so Nova is compatible too (D855).

---------- Post added at 01:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:11 PM ----------

yes I guess they do need access, I've granted Automate IT root acces and in the Privacy Guard superuser tab I see that it has used it a few times (same goes for GPS which it can't seem to disable).

I'll try out Tasker to see if it performs better.
[G3 Android Development] foxtaur:
Guys ignore stoutpuppy, the damn dimming isssue popped again but it took a while for it to reappear. There really has to be an issue with the adaptive brightness slider on 4.0. Reverted back to rom 3.4 until this mess gets sorted out. I tried to trouble shoot it , sorry for making you guys go back and forth on this. Thats not to say it doesnt work to an extent by flashing with /data partion unticked in twrp (that works 150%) the trouble is getting it working while under xposed. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt. I'm still trying to figure out whether its the modules im running that are conflicting with the adaptive brightness or its an xposed bug. I'm gonna run a logcat for this one when I get the chance, when I come back from work
[G3 Android Development] foxtaur:
Gee did I insult you? --Can't even say things anymore, im beggining to agree with some devs on why they dont post on xda anymore(evident with many on g+), its on the clear pathway of going to the dogs. Keep it clean guys

Sorry if I insulted you I'll rephase things better next time
[G3 Android Development] foxtaur:
Im creating a logcat when I come back, im on my break, to all those who I discouraged don't be, im running different modules and tweak packages seperate from yours.

God I love this device, and to think I was ready to buy a g5 too(the scene there is too premature)

I had the dimming issue back for a minute or so today while driving back home
[G3 Android Development] Maha23:
Just flashed this rom, really smooth and good looking. A couple of question tough, firstly how do I remove that damn google search bar? Is there an option to locking the screen by tapping anywhere on the home screen instead of just the status bar?

The stock density value that came with this rom had my icons a bit too big for my taste so I changed it to 480 which was kinda to small and then I tried 442 and got into a bootloop so I had to factory reset, any "normal" value (closest to stock marshallow) you guys could recommend? Is there a way to disable the equalizer in the navbar when playing media? Thank you very much :)
[G3 Android Development] foxtaur:
I'm on my second break ok so I propose a theory, I'm going about a different route

--Install 3.4

--setup apps,config OS,viper4mod,xposed with modules working

--backup with titanium(full version)

--return to TWRP

--wipe /system, /cache, /dalvik partitions(omit data and internal storage)

(this ones tricky cuz twrp like to remount /data partition(uncheck that)

--install Turbo 4.0, gapps, xposed v85,latest superSU beta,acc kernel 1.5

(make sure for each zip package to unmount for /data partition prior to flashing)

NB = Do not wipe and clear cache under any circumstance

--Now boot OS. You'll find your apps settings intact and nothings changed too much since you didnt wipe the data and internal partitions and xposed modules come preconfigured without necessitating a reboot. Now run and test if it dims for you. Working so far for me, I'm still testing it to see if it dimms. Touch wood guys, otherwise it may seem that ROM has a bug. To make sure I'll drop by a logcat soon enough. 3 more hrs till my shift ends. laters
[G3 Android Development] tietganFTW:
google search bar and double tap to sleep issues can be addressed by using another launcher that has gestures functionality like nova prime or action launcher, not really sure about other launchers because i only ever use these 2

don't know about the dpi thing but visualiser on nav bar can be removed through turbo tweaks > nav bar > pulse
[G3 Android Development] aoleary:
I have never had any issues with 440 DPI
[G3 Android Development] foxtaur:
Good news, my latest experiment a semi sucess, took 6-7 hours and then it dimmed but quickly resolved by flicking the adaptive brightness slider, turning it on and off again follwed by cranking the brightness to max. Repeat after several hours rather than every 2-3 min which is a huge improvement

My xposed modules are as followed:

--activity force new task

--amplify

--android-N-ify

--awesome popup video youtube

--boot manager

--greenify

--knock code

--low ram device

--lucky patcher

--no wakelock

--power Z nap

I'm trying to track down the culprit in a logcat( I try not to send to much of these to devs for fear I may be sending random data not not relevant to the bug. I got a dev mad back when I own a acer iconia tablet years back)

This morning I am trying to resolve my battery drain issues, so I flashed the ROM + GAPPs and rebooted to set it up and then rebooted again into Recovery and flashed just the Xposed Framework v85 zip by itself (no other apps), rebooted and when I got to the desktop I had the dimming issue immediately...

[MENTION=6739044]foxtaur[/MENTION]: Can you have a look to see if you can duplicate?

[MENTION=7418162]Stoutpuppy[/MENTION]: I used your method and I got the dimming issue. Turbo was using Launcher3 and not Nova Prime as I had no apps loaded yet other than OpenGAPPs Pico GAPPs.

From what I have seen, there is no issue with the ROM itself. Its a conflict with Xposed framework zip..

[G3 Android Development] aoleary:
Hi Stoutpuppy.

There is no data/cache for the Xposed Framework itself.

Xposed works in two stages. The Framework is the enabler which patches the system files to allow the app to run => No cache/data as its not an app

The Xposed application is what allows us to install the modules => That does have cache/data

However, in my previous post, I mentioned I had only applied the framework zip and had not installed the Xposed app, so nothing to wipe cache/data for...

[G3 Android Development] puya.crisan:
For those who are complaining about any other problems they can flash 3.4 version and all this non sense argue should stop. I'm sure there is no problem with the rom itself maybe gapps or kernel problems, personally i faced a lot of problems with 5.9 gapps even in 3.4 version as soon as i changed it to 4.11 problems gone.

So if u guys have problems try diffrent setups with 3.4 or 4.0 rom version and various gapps, you should find one working as wanted.

It is by far the best rom and 2nd place goes to candy wich has also very good stability and speed(personal opinion).
[G3 Android Development] foxtaur:
I'm done, I'm throwing in the towel, still getting dimming issues and like Kramer said it has to come from xposed.

Congrats pupper that it works for you, but being a d852 owner I do not own the d855 so I could not replicate your configuration. I await a future build of Turbo OS. the main dev did say it was slightly less solid compared to 3.4. (Though faster which kinda gets me pissed a bit)

The weird thing I don't understand is I go to xenon,broken or even candy and xposed doesn't give any issues. Everything works. To generalize that things are OK when other users are experiencing issues is a huge overstatement. In other words are you kidding me?--no offense man but your one of the lucky ones.

I really like this ROM, hopefully next build finds a workaround for the dimming problems.

I'm just gonna wait for next turbo release.

I'm sure yoshi is looking into this.
[G3 Android Development] Stoutpuppy GFX:

[G3 Android Development] foxtaur:
It is truly the best rom currently, btw found that the velis autobrightness app has a setting that can overide system brightness under its advanced settings, so far so good , it'll have to do until a new turbo comes out. Strange that lux didnt work

And like I said stoutpupper I tried your method no dice, im just hoping this workaround holds up because it has an option for disabling system handler

Curiously I may have isolated where the bug is happening, double tapping autofocus on the snapdragon camera causes dimming to occur instantaneously. But unlike before where it couldn't be fixed thanks to velis I can easily reset it and it sticks. the rest of my entire apps library dont suffer from dimming, just the snadragon camera

open_gapps-arm-6.0-pico-20160507 was used,, I'm gonna backup my rom and let you guys know if a newer open gapps works or not.

Back when I owned a Asus tf300t , the lead dev at the time was wookie, I simply grabbed a sandisk ultra card and never looked back. Awesome random writes and reads and decent sequential reads and writes. You pay top dollar for those microsd cards for a reason

The funny thing was that device was bottlenecked. It had a slow 32 bit single channel bus and a emmc internal flash chip that was ****, but Mr Wookie simply redirected /system and /data to the microsd slot. And tablet was actually pretty darn good

Lesson, find benchmarks for those SD cards, look for number of writes/reads(both seq/random) , also the most expensive isn't neccesarily the best, I bought a lexar class 10 with amazing seq writes but the random writes were crap

I actually almost got one but with the extreme you sacrifice space over speed. Dammit I'd kill for a 128gb one but UHS 1, UHS 2 isnt compatible with our g3's. This is another reason I didnt set out to buy a lg g5. came close but refused. I need a newer gen phone with up to snuff sd card slot specs, removable battery and a decent super IPS panel.
