Root [ROM] PACE 4.3: Pure Android, CAF/CM Enhanced

[tdm]

Okay I think we're pretty much set to go for tomorrow. I got the theme stuff all sorted out and added a menu item under settings/display for density.

I may just be blind again, but I swear I cannot find where to set MPT/USB/PTP on this ROM.

Trying to connect it to my PC and copy a file over...(i'll email it for now).

If anyone knows where this option is please let me know. I now it's gotta be there and I'm just blind as a bat or something.

I don't think that's built into AOSP.

Then there's no way to access the sd card from a PC without removing it?

odd...

That depends. It should have some form of mass storage support though. Does your computer recognize it when you plug it in?

Off assume the same spot... storage > menu >usb type

Yeah the context menu isn't showing for storage. Don't know why yet.

I almost got pace plus out today but I got greedy and tried to add an adfree setting. I didn't have time to complete it so I'll probably need to release tomorrow... unless I can finish it up later tonight.

Good news is that everything is working great. Themes, density, and quick settings.

Also, I looked at the settings tile toggle code. Still haven't decided whether to implement it, but it's very tempting.

Also SMS quick reply and always show battery pct on the lock screen vwould be nice. I think that's most everything that I really use from AOKP.

And a link to AppOps permission manager.

I've spent a few more days running PACE beta 2. So far it seems to be pretty solid; here are just a few additional things I've found:

Location services just doesn't seem to work properly. When GPS is not enabled, the mobile network location service can't seem to find me. If I open Maps, there is no blue shaded circle showing approximate location. Similarly, Google Now keeps telling me to turn on location services, even though it's already enabled in the settings.

My car supports Bluetooth handsfree and streaming audio. I tested the streaming audio this morning and the audio works as expected. However, the phone doesn't appear to deliver the song, album, artist information to the car. Not a big deal, but it would be sure nice to have this work. Somewhat related, my car also supports SMS downloads from the phone via Bluetooth; that service does not work at all.

In-call volume seems to default to LOUD! when making/receiving a call, even if the volume slider is low. I have to move the slider all the way full and then back it down to quiet before the actual volume changes.

I'm mostly nitpicking here with these issues, but I figured I'd point them out in case it helps with any further development.

PACE Plus Beta 1 is up, check the OP!

Before anyone asks... the density changer is under display and the adfree setting is under networks/more.

For Monday: torch and custom power menu. I've got the torch app going and the power menu code looks pretty trivial. Have a great weekend!

 

[tdm]

Now that I'm thinking about it, I'm wondering why there is even a torch app at all. It seems to me that the only thing it provides is the persistent notification in the notification area when the torch is on. But do we really need that? Isn't it obvious when the torch is on, and can't the user turn it off the same way they turned it on?

Personally I access torch from the quick settings panel - easy access to a flashlight when needed. Thats what I was hoping to get again in this ROM. Is that already in there?

Not yet but it will be. There and the power menu.

 

[Nokoko]

Am I completely overlooking it or is there not a way to customize the quick settings pulldown on Plus?

Not yet but it will come soon. I worked on the power menu today but didn't quite get it done.

Try this...

http://www.vmroms.com/~vmstorage/quattrimus/iproj/paceplus43-vs920-beta2.zip
md5=6e106a1e56139be0461454b6cd95674d

Changes:

* Torch added (power menu and settings tile)
* Power menu customizations

 

[tdm]

Oh also, tweaked the boot animation.

I have the always-show-lockscreen-battery setting almost ready but inserting it into the security menu is proving to be difficult. I'll try to get that for the next version.

I'm also working on a way to choose which quick settings tiles to show, but the best solution isn't obvious to me yet. The quick setting code is not generic at all, and I don't really want to wrap each tile instantiation with "if (tileIsEnabled()) { ... }".

This has all reminded me very vividly of why I really despise UI programming...

 

[tdm]

My sources on github are a bit of a mess right now but I'll try to get them synced "soon". I'm wondering how important the sources are... I haven't heard from anyone wanting to build pace for themselves yet...

Dirty flashed from Plus beta1, only problem I've found is the AOSP keyboard keeps FCing, was working fine in Beta1.

Torch works great, hope you get the quick toggles figured out!

This may not be anymore elegant but couldn't you read the list of tiles into an array, nest a case for the whole set of tiles to be drawn, then nest that case in a while loop to manage the instantiation?

Like I said that may be more intensive/sloppy though

That's strange. I've been dirty flashing on my p930 just fine.

By the way that's one of the features of pace and pace+ ... after the initial install, I will never require a clean flash to upgrade unless Google does (which is very highly unlikely, as they have always taken great pain to make upgrades smooth).

Here is the code:

See the problem? Every tile is "built by hand" instead of being a separate class.
