[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
I am not a developer only a user. But i felt also difference between this two builds. With rascarlos build no battery problems with latest lichti build battery problems cant solved. Wakelock was OK but drain was very high. Maybe this code line was the reason. :confused:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] lichti1901:
Yeah, i know about the second line, but thought it doesnt matter. Dont know that this could break things. (Dont forget - i´m a car mechanic and not a developer :P )

I´ll build today with headsup enabled again (blame [MENTION=1811927]simms22[/MENTION]) and with the fixed code for wakelock.

Merged all l-preview branches yesterday just to have a look if it builds - but NO chance :crying:

But it seems as we have to start fresh with the official L release then, massive on new code is out and it looks like a bunch of issues with old tweaks :eek:

Maybe new l-preview commits in ART works :fingers-crossed:

Hopefully new build today :highfive:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] cabstrak:
Awesome, can't wait for the new build with the headsup / fixed code. I'll be glad to test it out on a fresh clean install :D

Not seeing that here. I did a clean install however.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] hitechchef:
Clear data and try. Dirty flashed between lichti and ras to check, working fine.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] simms22:
been dirty flashing rasta builds for years now, never an issue.

if you have no mobile connection, does your imei and or baseband still show up in about phone?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] owichiu:
Flashed with 7-2 rastakat gapps on euroskank and observed wakelocks for 1.5 hours, no more Systemupdateservice wakelocks! Looks like the culprit might be that line break in the XML :p thanks [MENTION=2998612]lichti1901[/MENTION]! :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] RubbleTea:
New Lichti build running perfect thanks man, heads up is kinda nice when your multitasking...LA gets busy

Yes those still show up in the about phone but the data will not connect

have you checked in settings, mobile networks, to see if data is disabled? I've had it before when I booted a rom and it was disabled, and I never disabled it. are you getting a phone signal BTW?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] cabstrak:
Wakelock is solved. I guess it was that last line afterall. :)

Hey [MENTION=3124065]rascarlo[/MENTION]. I am trying to do my first cherry-pick ever from your github and am trying to add native battery percentage to my ROM. I cherry-picked this commit:

status bar: native battery percentage

I resolve conflicts, build ROM, install, but no battery percentage to be found. Am I missing other commits that I need in order for this to work?

Thank you!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] rascarlo:
You need the relevant commit for the settings package where to actually enable the new feature you've added.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] KerryWood34:
Thanks I will go hunting for it. Other commits I've seen usually have a "1/2" or something similar so I thought there was only 1 commit I needed.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] lichti1901:
Have a look here [2/2] ;)

[MENTION=3124065]rascarlo[/MENTION], [MENTION=1717554]Lichti[/MENTION]901 Is it true that the holo white background is already in the code like Heads Up? And just needs to be activated?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] KerryWood34:
Thanks lichti, I found it easily enough just didn't know there was a second one haha. Like I said I'm just starting out and learning as I go [emoji4]
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] rdiehl13:
You can flash one of the stock rastakat builds in my sig, they all have sprint data working out of the box or use the zip located here. (Profile and PRL updates do not work when you flash the zip file)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2541924

The rastakat builds in my sig have green lines on the camcorder but if you just replace the lib on the phone with the one in my drive link it goes away.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Wdustin1:
Ok running lichti newest build, 6-29 and was running elemental x newest and Trinity, and now I am running Franco r55. Same problem Google services wake lock won't stop no matter what I do. I used the 7-2 gapps from the euroskank site. What can I do to stop it!!

Wake lock detector doesn't show anything really but it shows 89% awake time?

And yes I tried clean flash last night after trying everything I knew still same story.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] akash3656:
People have suggested to use older GApps packages and clear data for google play services. If its grayed out for you, just disable android device manager from being a device administrator.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] iburnhearts:
Lichti's latest build is 7-3 and it has the fix included for play services battery drain
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Vangelis13:
Yep, all gone! :thumbup:;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mightydrake:
I know it has been said before, but what is the service to block in Lichti Wakelock blocker to get better battery life. Google services uses all my battery.

I blocked something once after Simms posted the service using all the battery but since I flashed Lichti build back from Android L, I need to adjust it back.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] owichiu:
try finding the service called SystemUpdateService in lichti's wakelock blocker and save your changes. what is the build date of your "lichti latest build"? the latest should be Jul 3.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mightydrake:
Alright, I have Jun 25th build. I was away from my computer for a few days, did not see that there was an update.

I will update to latest one, thanks.

Well guys, just here to report it's been a nice ride. :/ I tried to get L and the sdcard to work with a command I read, forgetting for some stupid reason I had MultiROM installed, not actually TWRP. So I typed in Restorecon /data/media/0/* now any kernel I flash tells me k-exec failed. adb and fastboot aren't being detected by the only PC I can use either and have no idea why.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] simms22:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] lichti1901:
restorecon -r /data/media/0/*

This does the trick for me. Try that

Thanks bro. Tried that before but didn't work, I ran that on L actually haha....

Gonna back up everything and clean wipe my device with your build and L. Much respect!

Small heads up on Litchis build FK test build 56 7-7-2014 kept giving me a SOD. Ended up on Code Blue kernel for the moment until I get back on my PC and flash stock kernel back.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] simms22:
just dirty flash the rom, if you still have it in storage(you should always have a copy in storage just in case :p). or redownload it and flash it..
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] xzilem:
I use quick launch for Power Menu.

Anyone know how to disable system usb mount storage? It detect my ntfs formatted pendrive as blank usb storage and want to format it although i already set Stickmount as a default.

My Stickmount app can detect the ntfs pendrive normally and i can use it to read & transfer file.

+1 for quicklaunch, 100 times faster as quicksettings ;)

No way to disable it in Settings, sorry

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] TheLastSidekick:
Yeah haha, but I already made some changes to system may cause instabilities. So I just unzip the ROM, copy over the boot.img and then flash the boot.img in MultiROM. I always have the latest stock, and the latest Rastakat on my internal, the latest GPU driver, a couple of custom kernels, and all of them radios. ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tombig67:
I tried your build, it's very snappy, and it's stock UI, but some features are missing (notifications for exemple) and email and sms must be added manually. The dialer app is also the one w/o google features.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Crostantin:
Notifications features missing??

About sms, I don't agree...hangout is the new google way so I m following it...if you want is on storie

E-mail app, maybe you are right...never used but you aren't the first...maybe is better than gmail, I ll have a look

And the dialer is the same of rastakat... No more no less
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Roscopcoletrain:
w00t, I'm back on Rasta baby!!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tombig67:
I didn't read your feature list before now, sorry for my post, don't understand me, I'm only giving my feeling. Your build is great anyway.

For the dialer, I was used to the dialer from lichti's build. :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Crostantin:
No problems here...I thought that you tried it and you was reporting me something...

Btw, I ll have a look to other dialer app :)

new vanilla build is up on euroskank

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] derPianist:
I cannot flash this. Its stuck on "don't involve rasta in your say say"

That's it. I have to power + volume down key to reboot into recovery again and flash another ROM to get my phone up and running again.

I really want to use this ROM. Any suggestions? I've redownloaded several times.

Try to boot into bootloader first and from there into the recovery.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Smallsmx3:
So vanilla is just built from sources? No extra settings? But does it have any tweaks?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] BrandoHD:
I don't think it's stuck, it can take a very long time to flash,, apparently some type of "flash fix" is not included for it to flash faster, so I left it for close to 10 minutes, the flash was completed successfully
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Crostantin:
It's a vanilla...not rastakat...

If I remember is AOSP, deoxed and su dropped....maybe the black framework
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] androcraze:
Vanilla means vanilla (as in ice cream: nothing else added). You're getting as close to AOSP as you can get. The Vanilla ROM is the only ROM that I'm aware of to do this, short of building it yourself.

There are options and settings during build time that are adjusted (what is turned on and off). Some applications are excluded (Calendar, for one). I'm also hoping that the wakelock fix was added for the Play Store. I don't believe that AOSP has a "stock" boot animation; Rascarlo adds the Google KitKat factory animation. Any "tweaks" are minor and mostly bug or functional fixes.

Boring is beautiful.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] pmbabu:
From the OP for you:

/// WHAT IS VANILLA

pure aosp built from source
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] rascarlo:
Vanilla is an android build straight from the source. Only changes are

in the build package to have insecure, deox build and to not build few packages that would be duplicate and outdated (calendar, search box..),

a call in the frameworks to disable ota package trigger,

few overlay in my vendor to add fingerprints.

Details can be found on my github, branches kk-vanilla

Honestly I haven't done that much lol
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] lichti1901:
Hold on, flashing can take a few minutes ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] simms22:
up to 10 minutes :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] RubbleTea:
Lichti's version of rastakat is like mintchip!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] derPianist:
I've never experienced this before with any other ROM flash since back in Galaxy Nexus days.

I refuse to try again because I am scared of it not working again. Maybe I forced a reboot to early but usually the progress bar fills in CWM it did not for like 5 minutes.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] simms22:
rascarlo just needs to update his scripts but its normal, it wont hurt anything. it gives you just enough time to grab a drink, run to the bathroom, then smoke a cig :)

if you refuse to try again out of fear, that is your own issue that no one here can help you with.

you can always try one of the other rastakat builds, as they flash quicker.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] derPianist:
Thanks man! I really appreciate your help and detailed posts.

You mean those from euroskank, right? Gotta try these then.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] aoaleman:
Don't know if you want to change recoveries, but for me with TWRP and /system unmounted, rastakat flashes pretty quickly. :D Good luck!

I'm on lichtis latest build and I was in a call... When I turned on my phone I seen a rasta lion of some sort... Where did that come from?? How do I bring it back up?? Kinda cool I must say
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] simms22:
this one? you see it when recents is empty, bit you still press the button :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] swirly05:
Hahahaha yeah that's it, mad dope! Thanks
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] TheLastSidekick:
Some people tend to fear XDA mods, I used to before because one or two abused their power...but that's everywhere. Most mods here are amazing people.

And rastakat can take up to 10 minutes to flash? I must be lucky then because it takes literally under 10 seconds and never longer.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] stojshic:
Never saw it... I'm proud of myself [emoji1] Oh how many times I tried to explain my non-techy friends not to swype recents and to uninstall any clean masters and "speed up your phone" apps, and that they don't use symbian anymore... [emoji3]
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] akash3656:
I totally feel you. The most annoying thing is I give my phone to a friend of mine, they play with it and say 'whoa this phone is so smooth', then they go to recents and kill all my apps. Inside, I feel like a nuclear chain reaction just started.

Then I'll give them a crash course of why you shouldn't kill apps especially if you have a phone with >1 GB RAM. If you feel like you're having some system memory leak, REBOOT THE PHONE GODAMNIT don't kill apps.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Vangelis13:
Pro tip: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.greatbytes.fastreboot ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] derPianist:
Does that mean apps which kill apps or prevent them from running in the background are bad too?

E.g. I am using Greenify to prevent Facebook running in the background or Vine or similar apps.

I'm just curious..
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] swirly05:
Why shouldn't you kill apps?? I only have about 5 on my phone. Not much of a so user but I'm curious to know.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Crostantin:
android is born for multitasking...home button put the app in background but still open...and we hope whitout too wakelock..

if you kill or freeze some apps you are facing this philosophy because when you reopen the app there is another I/O operations and the app restart from the beginning...you are using a Nexus like an Iphone...so use the home button not the back...full ram doesn't drain battery, CPU wakelocks drain it

greenify theory is a good idea if you freeze the apps with too wakelocks (facebook above all)...but in theory if you can manage wakelock you can't prevent it...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Chochiwpg:
And that's how I use my Android, just like an iPhone. IDK why, but I just don't like seeing apps in the recents menu, I want it all cleaned out when I am not using the app. More apps open, more RAM being used, means less performance for the app I am currently using. Want all the system resources to be concentrated on the one app I am using, when I am done, close it out and open the next app. May take a brief second longer to load then if it's in memory. Maybe it's just me, I've just always used my phone like that. I have tried multiple times to leave the apps in memory and forget about it and just home button, open the next. But I just can't do it, I know it's open and running and it bugs me LOL. It's like leaving the lights on in a room you aren't in, I just have to shut it off.

Probably a little OCD LOL :laugh:
