Thanks
This day just keeps getting better and better! Thanks again guys! (out of thanks today. I'll thank you tomorrow). One question though, is the camera working on this build?
I'm giving it a try now anyway, so I will report
Downloading...NOW!!! :highfive:
oh yeah!! :victory: :victory:
new version is up guys
the launcher problems as well the keyboard popup we cannot do anything...this is a bug on googles closed sourced new launcher lol. Lets hope they will update it as well soon. You can use nova instead which is in our builds as well
about camera we need to wait for the new bloobs from google. All other would be a hackish workaround which does not make sense assuming the blobs will be released soon
whatever
Fixes new version:
- added dalvik optimizations....so speed up step one
- reworked and adapted status bar clock and date customization to 4.4
- added some of our camera features (smart captchure, jpg quality, color filter, gps indicator)
- reworked the complete camera to the new google style. Google stoped it after they finished the photo camera interface lol. So all into new PIE style + some fixes + more consistent now
- added a bunch of Mms/SMS fixes
- activated on supported devices lockscreen transparency on nav and statusbar
- some stability fixes
- fixed some google 4.4 code derps
- a lot small stuff
have fun and cheers
PS. the camera features for deb of course you cannot use right now
I'm probably gonna flash this today The only question I have is this: I'm coming from an old nightly build of CyanogenMod 10.2, which is 4.3.
I remember when we made the jump to Jellybean, a new CWM had to be used and there were a bunch of changes.
It seems like the changeover from 4.3 to 4.4 is way less drastic.
WOuld I be able to get away with a dirty flash and just clear Dalvik cache, or do I have to do a full factory reset? I can Titanium Backup, I just would prefer not to
-edit- somehow doubleposted on accident, sorry!

Defiantly do a factory reset and format /system. 4.3 to 4.4 is too big of a jump for that.
I can't find TWRP 2.6.3.2
The newest version seems to be 2.6.3.1
Will it work with this version?
I flashed this last night using the same CWM Touch I used to flash cm10.2.
Flashed with twrp 2.6.3.1 all ok
Inviato dal mio Nexus 7 utilizzando Tapatalk
I have successfully flashed it, but I can't use this ROM for my daily driver because BlueTooth is broken. I use both a Pebble watch and a pair of A2DP headphones, and both lose connection after the screen is off for a couple minutes. Its acting like the Bluetooth interface is going to sleep for power savings, but this is happening while I am actually listening to audio via Bluetooth. I do this roughly 20 hours a week and "need" this functionality in my tablet.
As a result, I'm going back to CM10.2 for now...

it is currently a hard task on the one hand we bring all our devices up on the other hand we put back our features...some are redefined some we programm completly from scratch with new stuff. Eg today we pushed about 200 commits from 4.3 into 4.4 for our other devices + fixes for current devices
but mostly ppl are interested in new features...so new build has:
- superuser included (need to be enabled in developer options!!!)
- a lot new features just discover them...to much to write up
- a new crt animation...check it out
- fix settings locale language problem
- and tons of fixes under the hood
and new build is up
I added a simple list yesterday but it is actually more we have already included:
- all keyboard features are back (force auto rotate, disable landscape fullscreen, force enter button, ime notification, volume key cursor control)
- clock statusbar features
- crt animation
- statusbar brigthness slide
- safe headset volume
- volume rocker features (wake device, sound skip)
- slims privacy guard
- volume panel features we had
- keyguard on supported devices shows now transparent navbar/statusbar as well
- wifi country code
- advanced reboot menu
- custom LED battery and notification features
- swipe qs -> notification and back
- disbale OTA from google
- slims camera and video features (smart capture, image quality, image size, gps indicator etc)
- implemented root (needs to be enabled in developer settings or in superuser settings. Disabled by default)
- tons of fixes in google code and optimizations
- a lot under the hood stuff
- and whatever I forgot to mention lol
Awesome!... I actually just flashed the rom today and love it... Can I dirty flash today's build?.. 8)
Dirty was just fine... I see the camera app in titanium but can't find it in my app drawer... Real smooth so far!... Cheers...

This Xposed module allows you to change the NavBar buttons on your Xperia/AOSP devices. On stock ROM, there're only three buttons on the NavBar (Back, Home and Recent Apps). Now you can have complete control of the buttons and how they look like.
Features
Show or hide Recent Apps, Menu and Search buttons
Re-order buttons
18 themes with different colors
Use your own images for buttons http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53045744&postcount=136
Restart SystemUI to see changes immediately without rebooting (Busybox required)
Activate changes on the fly without root (Nougat only)
Define left and right margin
Define navbar height
Define search button action
Requirements
Your phone must be rooted
Xposed framework must be installed first http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401
Xposed library 2.2 is required
Instructions
Install the module
Run Xposed Installer and enable the module Android NavBar Buttons
Reboot the phone
If you want to use your own button images, check out this link.
Permissions
WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE - store stock button images for preview
READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE - read stock button images for preview
GET_TASKS - used by Switch to Last App function
REORDER_TASKS - used by Switch to Last App function
Limitations & supported devices
I developed this module based on AOSP source code and tested only on my Xperia devices. I expect it to work also on AOSP devices such as Google Nexus. You can try it on other devices but I don't expect it to work universally, especially HTC and Samsung devices because their framework is heavily modified.
If you enable this module and Tinted Status Bar together, the color for the Home/Menu/Recent/Back buttons will be controlled by Tinted Status Bar while the Search button color will be controlled by this module.
If you're also using GravityBox, you must disable Navigation Bar Tweaks. Otherwise, this module won't work.
Currently the following devices are supported: (to be updated)
Sony Xperia ZR stock 4.3 ROM
Sony Xperia V stock 4.3 ROM
Sony Xperia ZL stock based custom ROM/eXistenZ
Sony Xperia SP ExistenZ 3.3.0
Sony Xperia T
Sony Xperia M dual stock 4.2.2 ROM
Sony Xperia Z1 4.4 ihackers 4.1
Sony Xperia Z1 Compact stock KK ROM
Sony Xperia Z stock 4.3 ROM
Nexus 5 stock 4.4.2
Nexus 7 (2013) stock 4.4.2
MUCH i5s
Moto G stock 4.4.2 ROM
Moto X stock 4.4.2 ROM
Samsung Galaxy Lollipop or older devices (you need to set qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 in build.prop to enable Navbar)
Samsung Galaxy Marshmallow or higher devices
Sony Xperia X series devices Marshmallow ROM
Credits
I used this guide to help me develop this module. This document is outdated but the concept is still the same.
Huge thanks to atticus182 for his great work of Softkey collection
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-nexus/themes-apps/softkeys-softkey-collection-t1413582
Thanks to C3C076 for his wonderful GravityBox! This module uses some of his codes for search button actions.
Supports & troubleshooting
If you're using Android 6 and are unable to see folders when importing image files for user define theme, you need to grant Storage permission in App settings.
If you find that this module doesn't work on your device and see FC repeatedly and both notification and navigation bar disappeared, don't panic! Just run Xposed Installer, disable this module and reboot.
If you want me to add support for your device, please send me the following:
Xposed log file
Your device model
Android and ROM version
Deodexed /system/app/SystemUI.apk or you can send me a link for the ROM
** I can only work on Xperia/AOSP devices at the moment, please don't send requests on other devices **
** CM ROM is not supported because it has its own implementation of NavBar **

Oh that makes sence actually. For some reason my ROM (Stock-which is a slightly modified AOSP on my MUCH i5s) disabled and hid the Recents button from the navbar leaving a gap on the right, I was hoping this would solve that issue. Well thanks anyway, I will keep this modual enabled as I do like the looks of the navbar now rather than just two buttons
But if there was a way to enable it or have something in it's place to do the same thing, i would love to know.
Thank you!
Image of search button does not change in SoftkeyZ app. However, module very good!

Please try this test build. You may like to test it in different orientation (portrait, landscape) and different modes. Some apps turns the buttons into small dots in fullscreen mode, such as camera. There may still be bugs. :silly:
Doesn't seem to change anything
Though when on landscape mode I so have this bug, it does nothing if pressed but if held it opens search.

Hi, this module is beta 10 but I have no problem with the App. Although I expect more updates such as if you could add buttons allow you want, Of course also the order. I just want 4 button. Return home, and recent menu so hopefully no more and add an interface, still thank you for all your contributions so far.

OK guys ive found some features that remix os must have but doesnt:
1-Share it : So ive tried using share it and what i saw made me wonder the screen went black and didnt fix until i restarted it after that i tried again and saw that it doesnt work at a ll and i cant transfer files between an android phone and remix Os.
2-bluetooth : well this one didnt work too as i said above it wont find my huawei g8 phone and no phones around.
3-Multiple Keyboard Language And Shifting between them : so guys you know that you can change your keyboards language just with pressing
ALT and SHIFT together but in remix os we can only type english and no way to change it.
4-Google services : so what you feel its empty space is google play services. you want to
know how it can help? so you wont be able to use google applications like google play games,gmail,google play, and so on.
As a compassionate User i ask the developer team to add these simple but very necessary features to Remix Os.
WISH YOU LUCK Ariel.
I just started using RemixOS for PC (love it so far!) and I don't have any issues with Google Services? You have to install them separately (instructions on Jide site), but they work fine...
Sent from my RemixOS PC using Tapatalk!
there a lot more important things:
ability to select video output
ability to select sound inputs and outputs
ability to select resolution and size on screen.
need more wifi support
need more video support...
I only need screen recording to work, and a brightness slider in notification center
Bluetooth works fine for me, though my desktop appears as a phone in the bluetooth devices list on my phone (Doogee X5 Pro, running vanilla AOSP 6.0).
It does take some time for the prompt to appear though, and you're limited in what file types you can recieve.
And I can type in other languages with my physical keyboard, however I have to change it from the settings window since it doesn't appear in the applet.

Screen recording I can't see them bothering with (a base update to MM would add it by default).
Brightness slider is already there; you just need to disable box mode (or create/pin a shortcut to the SystemUI/brightness activity).
Edit based on 402: Seems to be a reveral of the above - Screen recording is reported to have been added [haven't tested] and the brightness slider is missing/removed [ro.remixos.box=false]

That's kind of a problem, since I dont think stable MM update for android x86 is coming soon and for Remix to update their base to MM would take even more time
And how can I disable box mode? my laptop cant change brightness with fn key even in ubuntu, but it can easily be fix with a slight modification in grub
I cant see how to do it in Remix

Which GPU are you using? It still has few issues. google play services continuously crash on intel Gen8+ GPUs,which is not fixed yet. And porting to mesa 12.0 is currently going on. Once Android-86 is done with mesa porting and fixing issues,Jide can migrate to Marshmallow.

Hi all.
Are there features you miss in custom ROMs that you maybe know from EMUI stock ROM or from other devices?
I started the thread because I hope our hard working devs are reading this and maybe can add single features and make people (like me) happy.
Ok, I start:
Known from Honor 5x EMUI:
Flip case mode
Pocket mode
Wanna have:
Lock screen message with multiple rows instead of running text
Fingerprint quick actions
I know there is an app for it but a feature is sweeter whenever it integrated into the software natively !
And also in hotspot v have option to set the limit for connected users and also block users separately in emui.And in custom ROM I have only timeout option....!
Biggest for me is volte
The tablet received a major update the day before yesterday. It was 4.0 GB in size, bumped Android version from 11 to 12. Otherwise there were almost no good changes.
Changes I noticed:
Android Version 11 > 12
like on the phones no dark mode settings for individual apps
Material You support (but also like on phones no settings)
Security patch to October 2022
Launcher:
appicons change their positions during the update
grid is no longer adjustable & changes automatically (!) after display rotation (4x6, 6x4), therefore the icons also move
there is a large margin to the left and to the right, both orientations
many app names must be abbreviated with "..."
the new widgets are finally here, BUT this restricts all other widgets in size & position (There may be gaps that are large enough but can only be filled with apps)
Notifications and Control Center:
background Blur for notifications and quick settings: "simple-blur" > "real-glass-blur"
the notifications are displayed in a smaller space in landscape (like phone in portrait)
thus also more abbreviations than before
the control center has been updated and now looks more like (a fake of) iOS
One thing is striking: some things that were previously adapted to the display size are now more optimized for phones. This can be seen from the fact that, for example, the notifications are only in the middle of the screen and look more like a "portrait on landscape". As a result, the content no longer fits in completely and is abbreviated to "..." for most notifications. Something similar can also be observed in the launcher: The icons always have a large distance to the edge, they are so close together that the app names have to be abbreviated with "...".
Would it be possible that the base of the ROM was changed to that of the phones? I don't know how to check that, but I think in this case it would be possible to release the xiaomi.eu ROM for the tablet.
So don't update yet right? My Pro wifi version still stuck on 13.0.10.
I would ditch MIUI altogether if you're on the Elish (WiFi only) model.
I'm using Arrow OS (A12) and this is just 100x more smooth than the stock MIUI ROMs.
It BAFFLES me that this is the case.... team that makes the device should be able to optimise it as much as possible, yet some random built ROM from source is far superior. Sheer incompetence....
There's a Telegram group if anyone is interested.

I would say it's a matter of getting used to it. After a few weeks I no longer noticed the disadvantages. On the contrary, I'm happy about (the reintroduced) real glass blur and Material You support (especially Gboard).
The fact that the app icons in the launcher always switch between 6x4 and 4x6 (screenshot attached) is also the case with the new 12.5 tablet. If you want a pen/keyboard and up-to-date security patches, there is no way around it.
Unfortunately, I discovered something else (Does not have to be related to the update): if you leave Firefox, just to answer a message, for example, everything is reloaded. Means when I read an article I end up at the beginning, when I pause at a film I'm back at the beginning, if I want to add a photo to this post I need 5+ tries because the page will refresh in the time of choosing... Unfortunately, adding a lock to the app in the app overview does not change anything.

Hi friend,
I'm just wondering if you're able to use desktop mode or anything similar with Arrow OS. A big feature I'm looking to use with the wifi tablet is desktop mode (connect keyboard and mouse)
