Time to Reset

:confused:

:good: Exactly...

Really...? :eek: There's supposed to be a minimum level of ability- or at least effort- before flashing ROMs and asking questions in a developers' thread.

Totally agree!

There's a very helpful search feature in XDA. Very often detailed answers to questions can be found before posting a question and awaiting a response.

Great examples:

Multirom: Several questions AND answers in the last week- much can be learned. (OK, these search links apparently time-out, but you get the gist)

Contacts: Several questions AND answers in the last week- much can be learned.

"Wifi" and "battery" are other great search terms...

Now you may find that your questions weren't answered fully. And that's OK. Then you can refine your question and post it. Believe me, the minimal effort will be noticed!

First thing I did upon flashing Android 6.0 Marshmallow was research and read the best reviews I could find. Much has changed- some new features + some settings have

moved around

. Here are some EXCELLENT reviews, in my opinion, from YouTube and Ars Technica. There may be others, but I found these extremely helpful. It would be advised and time well spent for many to learn about these new settings- AND to experiment with many of them and put a

little time

into testing how things like battery life can be affected by them.

"Android 6.0 Marshmallow, thoroughly reviewed" by Ron Amadeo of Ars Technica :good:

Official Android 6.0 Marshmallow Review on YouTube :good:

I'm not trying to be a jerk in this post. But if you're offended by it, you probably should be. Many here get irritated by seeing redundant questions being asked. But this is a very, very friendly and helpful group/thread, as our OP +Sykopompos has asked that it be. But when the laziness and selfishness starts to get to him, then it's time to reign it in again and do a little reset.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] famewolf:
Be careful! Syko is Psycho!

So up till now I've been only restoring user apps in titanium backup...when going from one franks build to a newer one is it safe to restore system settings as well and if so are there some that should be avoided?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] rachit995:
Updating ROM

While I was updating (as per OP instructions), I flashed 10-19 over 10-15 build, then rebooted (Frank bootanimation, GNL replaced by stock launcher, no Google Play Services, and other Gapps issues), then rebooted into recovery and flashed Txuki Gapps, and rebooted. Setup wizard including other Gapps FCs. I had to clean flash over again.

Is there any method for updating this ROM other than stated in OP.

I'm new to Frank, while updating other ROMs, only ROMs zip had to be flashed over last build, is there something different here?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] LoadGamePL:
Anybody know how to add google dialer to ROM?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] TPWarrior:
Well done working through the necessary processes to get everything stabilized and working. Though the other ROMS you've tried could be flashed easily, I doubt that's the case with any Marshmallow ROMs, or you'd likely not be here. :) Like you, I've had great success with other ROMs previously, before I left Chroma for Frank 6.0. My favorite of those was probably Pesky Wabbit, one of probably 30 flashes of previous iterations of Frank, where a simple dirty flash would suffice.

The point being is that it's not the developer, but rather the source he has to deal with. Marshmallow has only been out a short while so hang in there. As I understand from Syko's explanations several times in this thread, the issues are with Gapps, which of course, have only been out awhile for Marshmallow. It will take a bit of time for Google to get things worked out properly. Once you get a full boot, Frank is unbelievable. :o

For people thinking about getting the 6p, check this out http://www.xda-developers.com/xda-e...hich-blows-irreversibly-on-bootloader-unlock/.

So if you think you can flash ROMs and then flash back to stock and relock to get your warranty well, you are out of luck. Goodbye Nexus future.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] bladebuddy:
Which was what I was worried about in my previous post, hence root problems.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] goldenboy48:
What's the point of running this AND minimalOS? Or is it that minimal OS will get all the extra features and this one won't?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Yup. Currently they're both almost identical, but, just like syko said, Frank will stay the way it is right now, and Minimal OS will be added more features as time goes.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Aaron_Knowles:
That's not how it will work. Its developed by Qualcomm and has nothing to do with google. It's part of the SOC. Sure it will show you've unlocked your bootloader etc - as long as it is a hardware problem, you have a right to return your phone for repair.

At least in Europe, and I know for a fact the UK we have laws to protect that.

Besides, google are all about android developers - the shear thought that they'd let this affect their flagship device is obscene.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/3phaw6/nexus_6p_has_a_hardware_fuse_that_blows/
[Nexus 4 Android Development] TPWarrior:
Thanks for the clarification. I didn't believe that click-bait story for one second.:good:
[Nexus 4 Android Development] bladebuddy:
So why on a developer"s phone would you need this ? Sorry but Google is locking down the devices in order for android pay, banking apps e.t.c to work. Good luck returned your device with it's flickering screen, none working wifi or anything else once this is tripped. Look at HTC's s-off , samsung e.t.c, its happening now to the nexus devices, there would be no need to have this otherwise.

Have linked the reason for this about 2 pages ago.

Also devs like chainfire have commented about this plenty of times.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] nimbold:
I can't understand why some people here have FC with Gapps. We all have the same phone, running latest factory image and wiped all the things before flashing Frank+Gapps.

I didn't have any FC with Gapps linked in OP (tried both). Not in version .15 nor .19.

Is there something I'm missing?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] insigma28:
I totally agree with you man [emoji23] I have never had any FC's either.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Aaron_Knowles:
A fuse that breaks has nothing to do with Android Pay, since you can use Android Pay with an unlocked bootloader anyway.. It's just part of the SOC developed by Qualcomm.

There have even been people who've messaged Google Customer Support for clarification on this. As long as you flash stock and lock bootloader then Google will repair your phone or send out a replacement if it is under warranty regardless of that fuse being broken or not. There are even many cases of people sending in unlocked, rooted, etc devices and having them repaired because the fault is nothing to do with software.

There are several laws within the UK that cover my ass, so I'm not worried either way. Companies will try to get away with refusing to replace, refund, or repair items, and a lot of the time they can succeed on the basis that a lot of people don't know their rights. Its amazing how quick a company will assist you once you quote some BS law/right.

Also the "I read something about google stopping your device from booting if rooted" is utter bollocks. They have no right to do that. Not to mention the backlash that would cause. People buy in to the nexus brand due to the openness of the software.

All the locking down on Android Pay etc is to cover their ass from one asshole dev managing to get hold of peoples details. Its more secure and I'm okay with that. They're covering their asses from lawsuits etc. I'm not too hung up Pay anyway, I refuse to go contactless on my debit card so being able to do what I want on my phone with the only restriction being that I can't use a payment app is a fair trade off for myself at least.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] famewolf:
Come on...lets be realistic...there have been FC's all over the place starting with setup wizard...the others (contacts..contactssync...google play) usually due to permissions that were not properly set to enabled (by the gapps creator). Most recently the Banks Gapps have proven to be quite stable.

Fair enough. The information is readily available out there, but if you'd rather have the wool pulled over your eyes then that makes no difference to me. Hell, there are even Lehman versions on Which?.

I'm specifically talking about electronic goods.

And that's nice that you worked in retail, my first job was also in retail. But I guess you're taught to misinform customers in order to receive more money from them ;) /s
[Nexus 4 Android Development] famewolf:
I'm not sure why this is a major issue for you but as recently as today folks were asking how to get contactsync to work. Yesterday one of the gapps providers pulled his "pico" build because it was causing fc's. If it's "stabilized" then it's VERY recent. None of that has anything to do with Franks as they were 3rd party provided files.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] nimbold:
I tried almost all the versions. Three different M ROMs with two different gapps.

Just wondering why some people STILL have FC while others don't.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] equi_design:
Yeehaw!!! Thank you [MENTION=1050103]sykopompos[/MENTION]!

[Nexus 4 Android Development] aalvico:
For me the only combination that worked with Frank was banks Gapps but flashing after flash ROM without reboot.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] famewolf:
Flashing the rom then banks before reboot was the smoothest..I got other gapps working by enabling permissions...but I had a couple more flashable zips I wanted to stack and I found doing so even caused the rom to boot loop so best to let it and gapps settle first..then go back in and flash all the addon zips.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] googleygoggles:
It didn't work, stuck at Google logo by the way. It flashes find though like a regular factory image.

Not complaining since I have Frank but I just wanted to you know that.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] jer_ying_fd:
Wait, I don't understand, so it's just the adreno update that was broken. So it means it's safe to flash the adreno drivers manually with the 19 build?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
Yes, I broke the update, not the adreno drivers
[Nexus 4 Android Development] jer_ying_fd:

Do you happen to have a link to the flashable zip for the adreno drivers?

[MENTION=1050103]sykopompos[/MENTION] What does a "minor update" for 10-19 actually cover? I'm on 10-15 and everything is working great. I'm debating whether I should upgrade or let it slide till the next major update comes out.

Really great work...I can't get over how well my n4 is running now. I just wish I could nail down what keeps resetting the network mode to 3g/2g when I've set it to wcdma only.

I've got a 2nd n4 and I was thinking about taking a TWRP backup from the 1st and applying it to the 2nd...are there any negative repercussions of doing so?

[Nexus 4 Android Development] famewolf:
Download a factory rom image, extract it and run the flash-all.bat or flash-all.sh. It will totally wipe your device and reset it to factory condition...you can then put whatever rom you want on it.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] TPWarrior:
No drain here at all. Maybe it's not "in the new update" but rather in your phone. Might want to look at ALL your settings- anything that can cause battery drain- and change things up to see if you can improve it.

Sandy, I've been searching for the last hour. My memory was foggy but I did, finally, run across my post from 11 months ago when I had a problem where my phone wasn't showing all its storage capacity. Was especially challenging for me because my N4 only has 8GB...ha. Anyway, I posted how I fixed my problem, referencing a post containing the fix. Well that post (with the solution) was the second post in this thread and was edited last week by [MENTION=1050103]sykopompos[/MENTION]. The solution was deleted. :(

I'm not 100% sure that was the solution to your problem, but it may have been. Try reading the posts around those dates and maybe you'll find the answer. It seems as though [MENTION=314183]ramjet[/MENTION] was involved in the solution. OR maybe Syko will remember. Sorry- I tried! My brain rarely passes along information from my short term memory to my long term memory anymore. Not a great thing (though it has cut down the need to buy any more new books).

The latest Google camera sometimes gives black pictures. I uninstalled it using titanium backup so that I could install the older apk I have.

If you want to update to 10-19 from 10-15, you need to wipe and clean install (you do not need to erase internal storage).

flashed frank

Just got a weird problem, touchscreen stopped responding, power button was bringing up the lockscreen but there was no response to swiping to unlock, I'm on a clean flash of the latest, latest busybox installed.

Responded ok after a forced restart, I have got hellscore b84 installed also and my minimum clock speed was set to 189MHz, gonna try changing it to 384MHz, see if it happens again but there's no problem with waking from sleep properly?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] PioneerZgZ:
I did the same.

At first i did like in ops instructions and i got a lot o fc's.

Then I started over and installed frank and banks without rebooting in between and all went fine.

Batery is not great but I will wait a little longer. I like the rom.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ckret:
i did experience some problems with touchscreen on hellscore

its the kernel and not related to rom
[Nexus 4 Android Development] atifsh:
i still get fc after gapps, and only the first fixed gapps without setup wizard was working, but that also crashes now tap.

i was using other ROM/build with built-in gapps and everything was fine in that ROM but battery.

now after i read that i have to move Google search app to system to fix tap error, i gave it a try and bam all is well now.

so..

i have fc with all gapps but one

my camera still takes black pictures with google newest camera, old version is fine.

I'm using open camera as an alternate.

all Happy going now.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] nimbold:
can you explain the process you did for flashing ROM and Gapps?

i did these steps and never had any FC. not in any of recent Frank builds:

-first of all i'm using the latest google factory image(5.1.1) + TWRP 2.8.7 (official, not multirom one)

-wipe all things but internal storage.

-flash Frank ROM + Banks gapps

-wipe dalvik and cache ( i don't know why i do this every time. just some obsession i guess!)

-reboot to system and done.

with these steps i never had any FC on M builds. google camera (latest update) works ok too. and that's why i'm wondering if you guys are doing something wrong or not.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] atifsh:
problem is not how you're flashing, it's the hardware difference or some flaw.

upto lmy48m camera works, right after update it goes bizerk and that's on stock factory image.

same goes for fc on M with gapps. banks was the worsts for me, it didn't even goto launcher/desktop screen.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] danielcepa:
I had the same camera issues throughout lollipop, and the fitst M builds.

Now running latest Minimal with "mustbe_txuki" gapps that have the new M3 preview camera (not yet in Play Store) and it is perfect. No flash unsync (flash fired before the actual exposure). FYI camera version is 2.7.008 and is available on apkmirror.com

Maybe this helps :)

I have the same problem, but turning off and on the screen with the power button causes the touch work again. I'm with the rom " stock " with the default kernel . I think it's not a problem only of the kernel.
