Hey there,
i excessivly use custom navbar buttons (e.g. Chrome with Chrome Icon), but my current ROM BlissPop 2.0 got Lockscreen Lag, which I can't fix. And newer Versions of the ROM discontinued the extreme customizable Navbar Settings with the for me useless CM Navbar Settings.
I searched and searched, but no ROM seems to have the "old" Navbar Settings, where you can add what you want to it and change the Icon.
Now my ROM keeps lagging even more and I am searching for an alternative, maybe with customizable PIE controls. But not even the new ROMs seem to still have PIE Controls :/
Does anybody have a ROM suggestion for me ? Could also be an older Version (but available)...

Actually the best way to find out is to try for yourself for a few days. You just make a titanium backup of your apps. Then start flashing. Try every other roms and you would be surprised actually. I even tried the ROMS I never heard before but they were worth it actually.
Like Validus has awesome battery life and I have become a fan of it with its smoothness and tweaks. I would have never known if i have never tried it.
Also after every few days, redo your titanium backup of your apps like whatsapp and other messaging/notes app if they are not synced online.

Hi, I'm quite new to putting a new rom on my phone, but so far loving the results but just have a couple of questions if anyone can help??
I have just installed an ICS rom, and I quite like the simple weather widget it comes with as stock, is there a Digital Clock widget to match it, I cant seem to find one, but I am sure I've seen one somewhere.
And secondly, is there a tweak somewhere that will allow me to have Wake On Volume keys?
There is not one in the settings maybe there is a downloadable one somewhere?
Thanks

Widgets in ics are more or less a problem right now. There are only few, because until there is a stable version it will be held as clean as possible. You can use any widgets from market not made for a special launcher. Try Android widgets pro, even if it had no digital clock though.
I think cm9 is the only ics ROM with volume key screen on, even if I'm not sure whether it's supported or not.
But there are other non-ics roms supporting that feature. I'm using endymion 3.4 and always waking up my screen with volume keys. On cm7 there was the same feature for sure.

Hey guys,
Since I got my N5 I was wondering if there is a way to configure the navbar... Put the back-button on the right etc.
And is there a way to get some quick settings like ring mode or gps directly into the Statusbar "pull down menu"... I don't like that title based setting stuff
Second: any way yet to get pie control? Certainly not integrated in kitkat (what kinda sucks)
And, most wanted, but also least possible: halo))).... Likewise not in kitkat (what sucks even more ) I want it but I guess I'll have to wait for the first few custom Roms to feature these things, right....
Just wait for paranoid Android, i used it for about 6 months on my nexus 4 and it was a realy great rom
Pa allows you to customize the nav bar use pie navigation and also halo
I will wait with rooting and using custom Roms because i realy like my nexus 5 as it is, because they made the nav bar transparency
And i will also weit till the nexus 5 developement section is filled
LMT gives you PIE and some other nice things like gestures and integrates with Tasker. Still waiting for my N5 so not sure if LMT works with it.
Yeah, I think I'll wait for PA then.. Enjoy the n5 little as is...
Hello everyone, I'm having a bit of an issue with almost every rom running 4.2.2 and newer. I have larger than average hands, and the tiny little notification drawer seems impossible to pull down consistently. I was running a 4.3 rom briefly and it had a wonderful functionality where I could use a 2 finger gesture, anywhere, that would pull down the notification drawer. But that rom had some video issues with netflix etc. so I've switched to a 4.4.2 rom (with a few other roms along the way).
My question is this: Is the gesture function a standard part of Android that I just can't seem to find, if so, where is it?
Or was it something baked into the rom? If it was part of the rom, is there an app or something I can install that will duplicate the functionality?
Thanks in advance for your help.
I have been using liquidsmooth for a while now, but thought I'd give cyanogenmod a try. One of the main features missing is the lockscreen torch which I use surprisingly often. Does anyone know if there is an add-on or anything for this? Done some searching and can't find anything.
Also, does cyanogenmod support changing dpi well?

I'm not the right guy to discuss about CM roms but you can probably add this feature through a xposed module.
Custom DPI is always possible.
I've been trying to find an xposed module to do that, but havent managed. its pretty key for me. Love the way AOKP integrated it (liquidsmooth, etc).
Go to the Google Play Store and download an app called the "Nexus Flashlight", it supports a flashlight(torch) application and also has lockscreen support. Plus! It only works on Nexus devices and I think a few others. I assume you mean like a lockscreen widget right? If yes, this is your app. Turning it on and off from the lockscreen sometimes has a delay but it's only half a second. :good:
EDIT: And yes! Cyanogenmod supports changing DPI, at least as far as I'm aware. I'm able to do this on my Inspire 4G running Cyanogenmod11. I got a boot loop by messing with this before, so make sure you know what you're doing and make a nandroid backup for safety!
Gravity Box allows for torch toggle when you longpress the unlock ring, but it can have some issues with custom ROMs.
You could also get access to torch from the lockscreen by using the quicksettings toggle from the lockscreen.
Hi guys.
Is it possible to change the default lockscreen app shortcuts? I mean: once in lockscreen, you can puul up fom the bottom a two lines series of shortcut.
I would like to change for example the default calculator with another app I have installed...and so on...
Thanks.
I don't think it's possible on stock EMUI... Maybe with the help of some Xposed module like GravityBox, but since that it won't works on EMUI i didn't saw any module that allows to do that.
thx mate. I did not find anything yet too... it's a pity.

Yeah dude I'd like to customize lockscreen shortcuts too, but Huawei locked that down. Surely possible on custom ROMs, but at the moment i prefer to remain on stock for various motives like camera quality, battery management and optimization, fingerprint gestures... (I'd like at least to try some ROMs like LineageOS, RROS, AOSP, ecc. but I saw kinda enough people forced to use dload to go back to stock, thing that obviously I'd like to avoid.)
It's absolutely not possible on EMUI
