pa_mako-4.0-BETA_HALO-20140211.zip

Beta 5 + Halo + Long press recent button to switch to last app

Halo is in the state as it is on gerrit... no it does not include the new drawables (I don't have them)
This is not "official" it's my personal build.

I don't want to say stupid things because I'm definitely not an expert in this so I don't want to blame anyone about anything. I was just wondering when you said that you might actually try to push a build with halo as it is now, just to make the audience happy a little bit. But that means that halo definitely isn't ready yet. But after that, still, I remember some time ago that post on g+ where the pa team said something about halo now being ready, reshaped to fit the KitKat ui style and thus letting us expect a quite soon release. Also like...2 days ago I think I saw something on gerrit like halo being 2/2, I suppose that meaning that something was complete. That's why I thought it's ready for official release in any moment. But obviously now I can understand that there's still some time we need to wait. I repeat, I am not an expert of this stuff, that's why I actually want to know, maybe it's just me that's missing something.
Sorry for long post, cheers!

Yess its worth the upgrade. The biggest improvement is that its KITKAT!! Battery life is average. Do flash it and feel the difference. :good:

Halo is fine for everyday use.
The 2/2 on gerrit has been there from day 1 of halo being placed on gerrit. [1/2],[2/2] is used when a commit has multiple parts (in multiple components/projects... in this case frameworks [1/2] and settings [2/2]), it is in no way related to the state of readiness.

Is there an option for changing navbar buttons? I'm sure I've seen this but flashed cm, aokp and pa lately swapping a lot so may be confused. Can't find it so guessing my mistake?

Is there an app that does the same?

I know that it took so long for the new version of paranoidandroid with kit-kat but i just admire the job that is done ...beta version to work perfect .Keep the good job and promote the rom because you deserve more attention.

If I flashed your build, would I be able to flash the next official build over it and keep HALO in the future?

Beta 6 will remove Halo unless it comes with Halo included.
Maybe I'll consider maintaining a Halo build... maybe

While I would love to have a build with HALO baked in, I wouldn't want anyone going out of their way to do it, especially if they don't want to. And besides, HALO can't be too far down the pipeline now anyways. :D

    im releasing a small revision update in a couple of minutes - just to keep the dependencies up to date. pie2 is a ***** to get right but its taking form. im working on this locally so as to not split it up into a million commits again - its easier for other roms to pick up then. i used a couple of days to experiemnt with displaying statusinfos like clock and notifications while pie is not shown but i always end up with something that either doesntlook right or it downright gets in the way of something.
    the solution will be a new UI that we're building from the groundup, its called pie-strip. basically a very thin statusbar kind of thing that has pie activated by default. it displays clock, notifications, statusicons plus a ticker. it'll be just a few pixels wide. you'll be able to get to that UI via hybrid engine, systemUI will have a layout container for that, 2000p perhaps. the other UI's stay as they are, pie will also be usable in extended desktop mode of course. the 0% thing will probably go.
    i can't say exactly how long but trust me i wanna get this out as fast as possible, its just a huge chunk of code right now.

    i made a new build for today, looked like the one that was made when i was on vacation had audio trouble? i tested this one and it seems fine.
    we'll also add maps to the gappspackage later.

    its a bit quiet right now but we're basically planing our next move. the idea is to make a massive change in our lineup and the way we handle this rom. basically we'll devide the workload into categories: tools, core, optimization, gapps, kang and relations. 4.3 or whatever comes out will probably be the beginning of a new kind of PA, it'll split into a lean/slim version and others will supply a more feature-packed variant.

    tools: we plan to fork our own tools for flashing, hoping that we can make flashing roms into something that doesn't scare away beginners. there will be tools, custom recoveries (in holo and without 10 million bull**** options), guides and we will provide things that are needed on top like radios, etc. work on OTA is almost completed aswell, it features delta updates, flashing is done by a click.

    core: jesus, aaron, yamil and i will concentrate on features. that means rebooting them all: hybrid, pac, halo, pie and everything we have done basically. they'll change visually and the goal is to kill every - remaining - bug. goal here is to produce a google android extension that will feel like android-next without compromising stability. some new ideas are floating around as well, in our heads that is.

    the other categories are clear i guess.

    biggest news is this, though:

    the entire PA team will support current gen nexus devices. nothing else. that means designers, programmers, guys who do the optimizing, they all will get the same device. it will be fundamentally different from the usual approach where one guy gets to release a rom. we see it this way, if an entire family owns the same devices we really can create something awesome here, with dedication. as opposed to just releasing stuff broken or not to have a big device catalogue. not that we did that in the past, but legacy devices kind of got in the way and right now only jesus and I own the same device.

    just a couple of scattered thoughts right now - we're discussing it day by day in our channels. in essence: we are tired of doing the rom-scene thing, we want a professional product.
