[Verizon] [rom]jbsourcery v5.4-lte[06/07/13] jb4.2.2 The Final Call

[The_Chief]

Eagle, T-Dev, all the others on Team Sourcery:

Is there no way to turn that stupid 4.2 Deskclock blue? Even in night time screen saver mode, that glaring white is really annoying. It's bad enough to have the stupidly thick HOUR and little thin minutes (I have always despised that, can you tell?), but to have it blind me at night too just seals the deal on my loathing it.

In previous builds I just replaced the 4.2 Deskclock with the 4.1 apk in the System/app folder and that works brilliantly. I'm trying desperately to get used to it, though, because I know that the 4.1 apk won't work forever and progress never sleeps.

But is there any way that your team can develop color options for the Deskclock? Or is that a sealed-up, done deal apk that Google doesn't want you tinkering with?

1 word....

Dashclock

1 word....

Dashclock

So you're saying to leave my phone on the DashClock login screen? Great idea, but I charge my phone overnight on a Capta so it's sitting at an angle... not just lying on the night stand.

And it has to sit on its left side, horizontally, so the power cable will plug in the bottom. And the login screen won't invert 180 degrees, so I can't invert the phone... even if I have 180-degree rotation selected.

Here's a pic of my setup for better understanding:



See what I mean?

 

[DannyJSlone]

Me too.... I was thinking of extracting messaging from one of the earlier builds with theming but then remembered that Eagle is way smarter than me at this and he would have included it if it worked.

I am not savvy enough to extract a file so I just hope it gets added back in.

Can always look under the mods section

Thank you so much. That never dawned on me. Man I love this rom and you guys are great.

Only thing that I can't get to play nice, is I was hoping I could get one of the sets of status bar icons, to play nicely with one of the battery ones. I love the Cobalt by dustin17 icons, but kinda like the old school Honeycomb circle battery. Somehow on 5.0 I hit a combination of various attempts that somehow kept it, but I can't seem to finagle my way into getting it to stick. Minor gripe, I know lol. Other than that, loving it! Still issue-less on it, as I start my way to day 2 on 5.1!

Did you turn on battery mods? Running the cobalt status bar and honeycomb battery here

 

[SecondShot]

Yes

That a boy! Worked great. I wouldn't have flashed that option without you telling us. Thanks!

 

[kinfolk248]

You can don't he inverted MMS and then change all the colors to what you want. It allows total customization inside the app.

Here is an issue I have with 5.0. I like to zipalign and fix permissions after I have everything set up and ready to use, however this seems to cause Google search to force close as son as the search/go button is pressed. The search works before I zipalign and fix permissions. It doesn't matter how I access the search in either case. The only other thing that mighty be causing this is using titanium backup to integrate updates of system apps into rom.

I'll try to get a log cat and use the bug tracker as well.

I downloaded this one. 3rd from the end of the list and then changed all the colors And style to what I wanted.

 

[DannyJSlone]

Glad to see that pgm works again with this release.

 

[iwoloschin]

Two things on 5.1

1) PGM works! Thanks guys!
2) The "Mark Read" button in the notification for a new text message. Awesome. I really don't know how I didn't live without it until now.

Awesome job guys!

Another item I just noticed is that the GPS on/off toggle in the toggles is a little buggy. It doesn't always recognize the selection. Also, if you add the "power" widget, the GPS on/off is also inconsistent. Just thought it would be worth letting you know my experience with that.

EDIT: 3-11-2013
I contemplated that the problem wasn't the ROM or other apps, but rather the new radios. Soooo, I reverted to 411 radios and voila, all the GPS selection issues are history. Anyway, hope this helps someone else if they had the same problem. Its most likely the new radios.

 

[KaztheMinotaur]

I agree. Tasker has been having trouble with mine.

The GPS has locked immediately every time so far. The battery life is also excellent. Had one re boot. Anyone try a different 4.22 kernel?

And bingo Instant awesomeness, once again! Thanks a ton, and just a subtle reminder of the countless possibilities!

 

[SecondShot]

The lock isn't the problem Pits. Its the tasker. Turning on/off. It doesn't do it much of the time. If you leave it on, you would never notice it. Which is the "work around." I am sure there is an easy fix.

I'm using GlaDOS, which I've used for some time.

I'm having trouble with screen-off after a call, making it harder to hang-up, but maybe that's my kernel, for which I have touch-to-wake enabled.

 

[BabyBlues]

The only issue I've had since doing a clean install on Saturday was the GPS not staying on. I would turn it on, go to navigation and it would be off. I finally did a reboot, cleaned cache and seems to be ok again now.
You guys are really awesome!!
