Yes I can post my "today usage" since morning I have disconnected my charged and started from 100% to 50% (now).

Images speak for themselves you can extrapolated the other 50% usage left.
Impressive!! Thanks for sharing your usage :)

I will see how far my g pad can go in a few weeks. I hope mine gets better

Slimport

It's weird. Im trying to connect the GPad with the Slimport but Im not able to do it. With CM11 there is no problem, even with stock. But with this ROM it doesn't work. Any suggestion?

For me slimport adapter did not work well in stock ROM. In this ROM it works great, I've tested it for over 2 hours viewing without external power, and no problem at all.

Is it possible to move the navigation bar to the right or left when in landscape in this rom? On Nexus 4 I remember there's the exactly opposite option ("Always show nav bar at bottom in landscape") but since on the v500 it defaults to the bottom, can it be placed e.g. to the right (or left) ?

I installed this rom yesterday and I have found a couple of things that are issues for me. Possibly both of these issues are related to AOSP or Kitkat and not specific to this rom.

The first thing has to do with the location toggle. I prefer to leave my location settings on wi-fi only and then toggle GPS on as needed. With Kitkat, you don't get a specific toggle for GPS, it's all or nothing. I'd like to find a way to be able to leave it set to use wi-fi by default and then be able to toggle GPS off and on on the quick settings bar.

The 2nd problem I've noticed is that when I use a USB mouse, the right click button no longer functions as expected. On most roms I've used, the right mouse button click acts as a "back" press. On this one, a right click functions the same as a left click. I don't know if this is a rom issue or a kernel issue.

Anyway, I would appreciate any suggestions on how to fix these things.

In kitkat they changed it so settings go high accuracy, power saving and device only.
I don't think it's possible to control WiFi and GPS separately.
High accuracy uses both GPS and WiFi.
Power saving uses only WiFi.
Device only uses only GPS.
Quick toggles cycle through settings and you can change in which order they cycle to fit your needs.

Hi,

Turn fully off your device. Then keep pressing volume up and down and power button.

From here you reach recovery again and you can do full wipe.

Follow the factory reset instructions. If you have custom recovery, it doesn't actually reset anything. It just reboots you into recovery mode.
