What is needed for Rom junkies - Nexus 5 General

We need an app like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52693938 to work on kitkat. I cannot believe we cannot restore our custom ringtones on our contacts when we flash new roms.

There are options bruh! This is android!

Tablet UI on 4.2.2, CM10.1

I've had a look around online for am easy way to get the tablet UI on my device without modifying the DPI but can't seem to find anything. I want to keep my ROM (sentinel ROM) so am after a flashable .zip or any other simple way to gain this. Does anyone know how I can?

Not extremely simple but also not too difficult, if it works...
You can try the Xposed framework and the Xposed tabletUI module. Both available here at XDA. Warning it didn't work for me on stock ROM.
There's also a flashable zip to enable it for the stock ROM over in the Nexus 7 applications subforum. I know it says it will work on other ROMs but I don't remember if CM was one mentioned. That one did work for me with the stock ROM.

Sharing data between ROM's

I wasn't able to find another thread about this...
Is it possible to share app data between the stock ROM slot and the other ROM slots, or do they all run on their own system partitions? Is something like the MoDaCo switch for the HTC One possible?
Thanks!

You cannot share data between different ROMs. I don't know much about MoDaCo but I have not heard of anything like that working with the D4. What you can do is use an app like Titanium Backup or ROM Toolbox to back up your apps and data and restore to your new ROM. I use Titanium and it works wonderfully.

Thanks, I'll try that! I switch between CyanogenMod and Stock infrequently, but often enough that I'd like to have some kind of connection between the two.

Attention Cataclysm Users.....

NOTE- SEEMS TO ONLY WORK ON ART
Now I hope this doesn't break any rules..... But I have temporary 4.4.3 solution until hopefully official rom gets re-released again updated....
But here goes.....
Go here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/development/flashable-stock-4-4-3-supersu-t2771010
And install 4.4.3... (don't wipe data)
If it fails installation, reboot recovery and try again
Then flash this - https://www.dropbox.com/s/1lp9gsasreyw1vi/oooohyess.zip
Then smile away
A few of the settings don't work but the more important ones (for me, toggles, battery percentage) work ok

Will this only work on cataclysm?

Technically it's just giving Cataclysm settings to 4.4.3

Thanks for this, all the features are included?

Couldn't you just change what it shows in settings with a build.prop edit? Or is this more than that?
All i did was pull the systemui, framework and settings apps from Cataclysm so they're flashed to 4.4.3. U don't get a reboot menu it would appear so far

same for me
Did you boot into 4.4.3 first then go flash the other file after?
Did you try wipe dvalik and cache? I never had any problems :-S

Generally works although some of the options appear to be broken (nav bar resizing and immersive are broken as far as I know), and I had constant UI crashes after trying to switch from ART back to Dalvik. Reflashed both stock 4.4.3, the Cataclysm zip, and Franco's r53 beta and no problems so far (using ART)... nice effort!
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Ah maybe that explains it! I made it using ART! Systemui crashes must be dvalik
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Any way we can get a fix for those issues?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
I really hope atl4ntis will come back and update us to 4.4.3. I really love this rom.

Who would like a easy flash modded stock rom?

I am thinking of creating a heavily modified stock rom (basically including all the mods/improvements I personally have done/like) to share with the community..
Would you guys like to see this?
If so, I may post one up in the next few days.. I just don't want to waste my time if people are not that interested
Sent from my D5803 using XDA Premium HD app
Do it!
We could use a few more roms.
Bring it on
Ok I might start work on one in the next few days..
Sent from my D5803 using XDA Premium HD app
Please do.
I'd love to see a fully de-bloated + modded flashable .zip
Something like slimKAT with stock kernel and full camera functionality would be super fast on this device

Got a n6 yesterday! What's every ones fav ROM?

So I picked up a nexus 6 yesterday on amazon unlocked in cloud white. Using it on tmobile.
What is everyone's favorite ROM and why?
What other mods do you suggest to make it perform better on tmobile as it doesn't seem to get the same data speeds as my LG G3.. Files seem slower to upload and download.
So far I'm loving how Smooth it is, and getting used to its size.

There are many great ROMs here. Go to the development forums and look for yourself. Read the OP's and pick one that has the features you desire. Try it, and if you don't like it, try another.
That's the beauty of nexus development.

Xposed Instructions
ONLY FOR NEXUS 6
I take no responsibility yada yada yada.
Nand Backup before proceeding if you haven't already. And I've always done it on a fresh clean install nothing else. After booting system for the 1st time not the same flash session.
Using latest TWRP, Unlocked bootloader, rooted.
1. Install the apk I attached.
2. Open it to make sure the app works.
3. Boot into recovery flash the .zip attached.
4. Reboot to system
5. Open the app to verify under modules section
Now Xposed works.
Tried on Chroma, DU, and Euphoria works perfect. Not tried anything else tho. Won't work unless 5.1.1 I believe

Pure nexus ROM. Perfection.
I have tried many Roms but the experience has always been traumatic.
I have been running Euphoria-OS for about a month and half now and it does make the phone feel the way it should have been since the beginning.

The N6 works fine, but uses a lot of energy
After trying some Roms I am back to stock and changed only things about energy consumption.
1. Flashing Franco' s kernel (default settings).
2. Black wallpaper (app No Wallpaper).
3. Change wifi-interval to 200 (build.prop editor).
4. Flashed black google now launcher (XDA thread)
5. Disabled services ( XDA Guide to disable Google play services; app 3C Toolbox).
6. Installed app Pixel Battery Saver.
7. Installed app Greenify.
8. Disabled not used apps.
9. Clean Manager to block most apps to auto start.
10. Replace apps with a white background

Is HellsCore one of those kernels with good default settings or does it require tweaking
Pue Nexus and Chroma are my personal favourites :good:

Default. Mako build is for better tweaking. Try default. If you want better battery life tweak to your liking. I following Mike on YouTube lol and he has some great tips

Is there a slimrom or clean rom that will work with the US Cellular version of the Nexus 6?
