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

Per T-Dev's recommendation, I am trying various kernels in Tools in an attempt to clear up my Bluetooth issue. So far I know that Trinity and Popcorn kernels send my Nexus into bootloops. On Tiny kernel now, and it's still breaking up.

This isn't a connectivity issue, as it breaks up on both 4G and wifi, with the phone MAYBE 3 feet from the headset. I normally get a 50-60 foot range.

I hate to think I may have to revert back to 4.5 or 4.6, but Bluetooth connectivity is vitally important to me. If anyone has any ideas, I'm ready to try just about anything here...

Tdev:

I figured it out. When pattern lock is selected it breaks the lockscreen security choice.
It doesnt for me.. not sure why some see this issue while the bulk of the users do not. Try grabbing a logcat next time it fails.. betting there is another app working on conjunction with this that I dont have loaded

I am having the same problem with my Bluetooth receiver since I jumped from 4.5 to 5.0

Two questions for the Dev team:

#1 What kernel was used for 4.5, does it work with 5.0, and where can I get it?

#2 I suppose the little "present" in IRC can be flashed with a cache and Dalvik wipe?

Thanks :)


EDIT: Okay, I was under the obviously mistaken impression that the Magic Clock UI controls the DeskClock. However, I un-bolded everything there but that stupid 4.2 clock's hour is still bold! I had high hopes that I could make use of the latest & greatest without flashing the old 4.1 Clock back in... and I hope you can tell me what I'm doing wrong. And please tell me what exactly the Magic Clock UI controls!

:thinking:

I so loathe that thick hour that I will go to such lengths to be rid of it.

magic clock is the chronos clock...

Like the dash clock for it much better.

Okay, so I suppose that there is no way to use the 4.2 desk clock and my live wallpaper at the same time like the 4.1 desk clock.

I further suppose that there is no way to thin or un-bold the hour in the 4.2 desk clock, or change the color of the clock display from white.

Is that correct?

I have set colors for the clock in Magic Clock UI and nothing on my phone has changed. I guess I have some more experimenting to do.
