I'm on stock rom / kernel at the moment with exposed framework (Gravity box).
removing root next week...wanna be completely stock for 4.4.3
working very well at the moment....cant beat app opening times on beanstalk rom / kernel though.

niceness! Will see how 4.4.3 turns out soon. I got a note 10.1 to play with this week so I'd see how that is as well. Too bad development sucks for it.

Makes me want to try beanstalk on the G2, but theres only an unofficial build...and Im so settled in on PA

if it ain't official don't bother. I learn my lesson with that. I miss PA a little bit in terms of the close to stock/only useful features type approach but I really wanted a few extra features that PA was lacking eg. lockscreen shortcuts. I wonder what tonight's beta has in store... Hopefully Hover.

i still on 4.2.2 i sad ent

i still on 4.2.2 i sad ent

no u are not....less than 4 months ago I was on 2.3

[stev]

been fooling around with some of the modules for the xposed framework.....stock rom and stock kernel.

...kinda liking it...having all the features of mixed ROMs on stock.

I thought backing up and removing all that (including root) to get OTA updates may get annoying...but then again how often does Google release an update.


ah hope i eh break anything soon

Selling my nexus 4 if anyone is interested.. Time for an upgrade

how much u selling for?

Sold for $1700. An hour after...was impressed lol.

Anyone saw the M8 selling anywhere locally ?

[godson692]

I saw it have some Note1 men earlier in the thread. Tried the S5 rom but wasnt impressed. A tad bit laggy when you're coming from custom roms. Running CarbonRom latest nightly right now. Useful addons. Battery life could be a little better. check it out

Dirty Unicorn release an update over the weekend but I'm trying C-Rom, an update expected during the week for these force closes. Video recorder also not working.

S5 I enjoyed alot tbh

[godson692]

i only get force closes on CRom when using Play Music. AryaMod has the S5 look as well but with more customisation. messed up the new look notification bar tho

[S_2NR]

There is an xposed module called tinted status bar. It similar to how iOS apps match the status bar color and I find it looks better. Check it out

i'm looking for an app that does time lapse photos or whatever you call it.

looking to take out pics of the bio luminescence.

what version of android are u running? the native camera app doesn't support it?

go to your video camera options (not camera) and see if u can find the time lapse option.

if not u can try this:

I used CarbonRom on the HOX once and hated it. Possibly because of the lack of support etc.

[rodfarva]

^ What kindof battery life you getting?
< 1 day?

[M_2NR]

Getting around 4hours SOT on average. I can probably push it to a day but i used to get more. I used to get closer to 5 hours. Then again I am using more 4G/HSPA than previously also

[stev]

for example the Google keyboard.....i have to manually update it all the time......anyone ever experience this?

[M_2NR]

I took off automatic updates. I can't handle d random updating all the time.

before setting it down at night i just check and install. It's on the charger and I'm not using the device so i don't have to deal with it exiting apps, lagging and general issues while it's updating stuff.

[S_2NR]

I find you should be able to set what time updates occur like with windows. Maybe in a future update

[M_2NR]

ent!
don't talk too loud next thing apple read it and make it the next mind blowing feature

C-RoM got an update, that bootanimation is teh s3x.

Supposed to stop the FC closes and minor bugs, but i'm still getting the random wakes.
