SystemUpdateService

I'm using this rom for couple of days and I've found one problem that is inherent from CM.

My phone doesn't go to sleep at all because of SystemUpdateService is using WakeLock.

If I install Disable Service app and check Google Play Store Services there is service called SystemUpdateService and it not checked. If i check that my phone will go to sleep.

My main problem is that this is not persistent so I need to do that after every reboot. I've done some investigation and it seams that this problem appeared after Play Store Service OTA changed something regarding SystemUpdateService so it was not fully blocked by CM like it was intended. You can find more info here:

http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/...ice-wakelock-on-cm11-m7-massive-battery-drain

In that discussion there is a link to a code that will disable SystemUpdateService properly.

Apart from that this rom has everything I need and it's fast.

Great job!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
Acknowledged. Will be in Build X. In the meantime you can use the Wakelock Blocker under System to block SystemUpdateService.

Mate Amazing ROM with fully loaded features. I just want to be sure before flashing it, Just one question as I am not going through all the post does this rom support on Multi ROM.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
I cannot say honestly, I don't use it (because I'm old school). If CyanogenMod is supported, then so is Exodus since it is based from CM. If you try it and it works, please let us know and I'll put it in the OP for future reference.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mikka06:
Damn dude, I remember the good old Vibrant days. Gonna flash your room as soon as I get up tomorrow morning. Nice to see around people from Team Whiskey.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] nickboy360:
It worked for me with the MultiRom but i think u should include the kexec patch in ur kernel to make it work.

Secondly i used your rom. Its seriously amazing but the problem is after a couple of hours i see only 400 to 365 mb is free tht takes the battery like **** and about the feature fast-charge was not sure whether it worked or not as the primary rom with your kernel.

I will be glad if i correct where I might have got something wrong.

Regards
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
That's weird. Did you do a clean flash? If not, make sure you factory reset, and clean caches before flashing, especially if you're coming from anotther ROM. Fast Charge does work, that was one of the first mods done on the kernel.

As far as the kexec patch, I found the patches for both Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 (2013). I'll try to put in these patches this weekend, but no promises.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] galapagos:
No such issue with the memory usage. The memory usage for this ROM is no different than any other custom ROMs in the forum. I've tested more than half dozen ROMs in the past couple weeks, and Exodus is just as stable, if not more, as the other custom ROMs, and its memory usage is very comparable to the others. Must be your setting + a combination of apps or installation issues.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] nickboy360:
I have been going flashing my rom 3 times a day trying all sort of roms. About the Exodus i have just installed whatsapp and nano gapps after reboot the system is back to 1240mb free and after couple of hours 350mb free i dont think Whatsapp takes so much memory.

---------- Post added at 03:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:07 PM ----------

Yes i always do a clean install of every rom i install on my device as i have a otg filled with Custom ROMs. so i dont care about the backup as photos are stored in google photos and contacts rest is not that important. Sorry mate i not here to criticize your work i am just a user who want to give the feedback. Please dont be offended
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Deepak.Gangwar:
+1 to that

I clean flashed that is why i told you about memory leaks Mr. A, Also this happens after straight usage of 10 or more hours (not restarting i mean) and even after cleaning all apps from recent all i can claim is 400mb to 650mb max. Battery backup was not affected in my case. ( i used experimental cm kernel with your build and no tweaks for ram)

I flashed sabermod carbon rom non caf to test and been there for few weeks and i always have 700mb free ram even after 2 days usage and after clear recents i get 1100mb straight anytime. ( here i used code blue kernel no tweaks for ram)

used both rom without multirom and all the daily apps i use.

One more thing Mr. A when this retired is going away from your title, I always picture you as old man with big white beard...... :p Do you have big white beard???:silly: :p LOL
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
I've requested to have my the "retired" dropped and have my RD status re-instated, but I guess they still consider me as retired even though I'm only 24. I have a big beard, but it's black.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] nickboy360:
Thanks man.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] razrlover:
@ Mr. Apocalypse, wow already got the latest goodies!! Downloading now. Thank you
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
Build X (aka Build 10) is up. Again, clean install is highly recommended. I've also added the Kexec-hardboot kernel patch to Exodia, but I haven't had a chance to fully test MultiROM, so be careful. Also, I gotta address of few things.

1. Since I don't plan on releasing any other BETA or UN-STABLE builds, I don't see why I should keep naming these STABLE, so from now on they'll be called BUILD (insert build # here).

2. This 7-10 day release plan is kicking my butt. I thought I could keep up with this and work but it's getting harder to handle. So I guess I'll start following suit of other projects and release new builds on an "update-as-needed" schedule. I will try not to go a long time without an update, but the updates will be more spread out now.

3. I gotta give special thanks to AICP for providing fixes for the new Tinted System Bars. I swear I built SystemUI at least 100 times trying to figure out why it wasn't working.

4. I've been asked by a few people via email to change the name of my ROM b/c it goes against their religion. I've had problems with this kind of thing in the past and I'm getting really tired of this. So let me say this loud & clear.

IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE NAMES OF MY PROJECTS, THEN USE SOMETHING ELSE, PERIOD.

With that being said, make sure you do a clean flash and enjoy the briefcase tacos! :highfive:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] razrlover:
Crazy how people can get offended over ROM names, while I care deeply about my faith. Harassing someone because a ROM name might resemble a time, movement, person or exercise of a faith is silly. Not to mention its controlling and against free will which should be important to religion. Rant over thanks OP!!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
One more thing!! Deep Sleep is now working again!

User talt brought to my attention that the SystemUpdateService wakelock was keeping the system from sleeping. I properly disabled it and the system now goes to Deep Sleep. For those that didn't know, this was an ongoing bug in my ROM, and it seems to be squashed. So everybody hit his thanks button! :victory:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] aarmstrong23:
Hi guys! Did i have to flash gapps?!

---------- Post added at 05:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:29 PM ----------

Ok got it! Didint see it in the thread
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ps000000:
Oh I just know the name of this ROM has some problem like that.

This is the only CM base ROM for hammerhead that has 8 unlock slider.:laugh:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
Build XI (11) is up.

I know what you're thinking. "Wait, what? DIdn't you post a build yesterday?!?! Damn you Mr. Apocalypse!!!" :silly:

Yes, but this build mostly addresses an important crash in Settings when you try to access the Battery section in Settings. I find it very important that you see your battery stats.

Also, since Chainfire updated SuperSU today, I figured i'd go ahead and update that while I was at it. Chainfire made lots of changes to the app, and I had to integrate it a bit differently. When you finish flashing, go into SuperSU and let it update it's binary. (It actually already has the updated binary, but entertain it so it shuts up), and you'll be good to go. Now lets go over the good news and bad news.

Good news: You MAY do a dirty flash with this build, meaning you can flash this build over Build X.

Bad news: Briefcase tacos!!! :highfive:

Enjoy!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] razrlover:
Thanks for fixing battery f/c
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Chris Hansen:
I could be a one-off, but it looks like this may be preventing me from waking my device. I have had two instances of this this morning. Is there a kernel or kernel settings you would recommend I try to fix it?

This is an awesome ROM, btw. Thank you for all your hard work!

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
Sounds like a one-off. If it becomes more common, you can check your governor settings in Performance Control. My phone likes Intelliactive while my buddie's freezes and SoDs on it. His prefers Intellidemand. You can play around with those and see which one your phone can handle, that's if it becomes more of a problem.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Chris Hansen:
Thanks! I tinkered with the kernel settings a bit, and haven't seen that since. Now I'm having all sorts of odd issues. I'm going to try to flash again and start over, because Google Maps stopped working (it just crashes on launch), and I was told to enable Google Now (which I already had when I first set up the phone), but when I went into the app, it said it wasn't available in my country. Chrome Beta only opens in a floating window, not sure how that happened. If I didn't have my device on me at all times, I would think someone was messing with me.

Sent from my Nexus 5

Edit: Looks like the Chrome Beta issue is app related, not ROM related. Nice new "feature".
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
I read that too. I got caught at work before I could reply. As far as apps crashing and such, which GApps did you use? For Maps, make sure it's updated, and if you restored it from TB, try deleting it and re-installing it directly from Play. As for Google Now, make sure the "Google" app is updated, and if you aren't using English on your phone then switch to that and then try enabling it.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] AndreIrawan97:
Will try this rom :D

Any lag issue with notification drawer lag? You know, when you pull it
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
No there isn't. Honestly, the only stutter that the notification drawer has is when you initially set a background picture or setting transparency in Settings. After it's set it takes about 3 seconds to take effect, then after that it pulls down at it's normally fast speed.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Chris Hansen:
I used PA GApps Micro 4.4.4 20140901. I tried installing Maps and the Google app from the Play Store and no dice. I will be trying to do a clean flash and start over from scratch again tonight and see if I have the same issue. I'm using English as well. Guessing the original flash just didn't go as expected.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] AndreIrawan97:
Is it normal if i pull the notification and it's automatically switch to toogles?

I mean, can i switch it to normal notification?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
In ROM Control, Toggles, then Configure is Fast Toggle. Under it is a side option. With Fast Toggle enabled, you can pull the configured side down and it goes straight to toggles. For example, if right side is set, when I pull the right side down it goes straight to toggles, but if I pull the left side down it goes to notifications, and vice versa. Disable this if you want.

Also, in Settings - > Notifications, under Notification drawer is Smart Pulldown. This takes you to toggles based on your current notifications. If you don't have any notifications or any clearable notifications, it'll take you to toggles, based on your setting. You may disable this also if you want.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
State of Exodus, and future project, "Screw'd Android"

Hello all,

First, let me say thank you for all the support, suggestions, and feedback on my "return-from-retirement project", Exodus. I never thought this project would get this big with this many features.

Second, as you all know, Lollipop is upon us. While the Nexus 5 & Nexus 7 2013 are my first Nexus devices, I'm still wrapping my head around getting the latest & greatest Android first before other devices. With that being said, (No, I'm not retiring again! :p) I must announce that the next update will most likely be the last Exodus build from me. I'm sure there are some that don't care, but there are some that does and I feel that I owe you that much.

Third, as some of you know, I'm Houston, Tx born & raised. I've always wanted to bring my southern pride to the Android world and bring a different kind of project to the Android world. That's why I'm officially naming my Lollipop project, Screw'd Android. The name is bold of course, and that's exactly what I'm proposing. A new project that has a bold feel to it. A different kind of flow, and a laid back feel that'll stand out from other projects. Do I plan for it to be as big as CM, Slim, AOKP, Omni? No. But one thing it will be, is different and bold as Chopped & Screwed music is in Houston. ( :confused: ? Google it.).

Anyway, that's the state right now. I'm merging the final features and fixes and the FINAL(?) release will come soon, as I prepare my rig for the Lollipop era.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] smatherlee:
Thank you for your work and build!

Do you plan on getting the N6? Will this new project, Screw'd Android be available on other devices?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
It will initially be available for Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 2013. If I bring in other devs and maintainers for other devices then we'll support more devices. I can't get a Nexus 6 atm, and I don't support devices I don't own, but if I bring in someone that has one, then yes.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] JustaBowla:
Accessibility Issues

I am still on stable 9, and am issues with accessibility options. I have a Pebble watch and this rom will not keep the accessibility options I put in for the pebble app or any other app for that matter. When I go back into the accessibility options they have all been put back to NO.:confused:

Can anyone tell me if they have had any issues with this or if this has been addressed in X or XI?

On a side note I did read the updates made for the two newer versions and didn't see anything there...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
Can you give me a screenshot of which options are being reset? I installed the Pebble app, and enabled it, and all of my accessibility options are holding. Maybe I'm missing something that you have since I don't have a Pebble watch.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] JustaBowla:
I will test more this afternoon and when I get home and to a place where I can send screenshots, I will get some posted. Thank you for your quick reply.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
Build XII is up.

As I've said before, this will most likely be the last Exodus build from me. I will be preparing for Lollipop until the source is released, then it's time to get back to work. Thank ou all for the support and feedback on this project. Happy flashing! :highfive:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] nickboy360:
Hey mate. U know i said about memory management i am having the same issue with 4.4.4 latest build.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] livbean:
Running well so far. Only issue is wallpaper FC's when I try to change.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] aheeejd:
Great job man, can't believe I'm a day late lol. I went ahead & flashed Uber kernel. I also get the wallpaper fc if I try to change it from settings/themes, but I use Nova launcher & am able to change it with long press, then wallpaper, then themes & it works. Thanks for the rom & welcome back.

Care to share how you got uber on this I despise cm for starting this caf stuff that's why I only use aosp and ub3r is my daily driver I'd be willing to take this ROM for a spin it looks great I just don't cm thanks
[Nexus 5 Android Development] melbourne408:
No reason to be rude.

If you are trying to get an AOSP kernel to work with a CM base check this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2626961

I don't know if it's updated, with some roms running the stock kernel works best.

Big thank you to [MENTION=1913443]Mr. Apocalypse[/MENTION] for such a pristine piece of work! Will we testing it out later tonight. :thumbup:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ddloco:
Sorry

My intentions was not to be rude I was merely transparent about how I feel about cm

Installed this rom yesterday... Its working very well. I also get the wallpaper fc. But i could set a pic thru the gallery. I don't know but sometimes swipe don't work in keyboard. Can somebody confirm that?

Great Rom. Thank you for your work. One bug I noticed, if you choose the traditional toggles, the battery icon dose not show up. Also I was wondering how you set the lock screen ring targets?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] aheeejd:
Sorry so late but that guy who gave you the link to that thread is correct. And it is updated. Its been working on everything I flash. Uber is the only kernel I like to use as well. Be sure to flash rom, then gapps, then non caf kernel, then uber, then whatever else you flash & should be good to go.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] mrbackdoor:
oh yes i do... thanks
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
Sorry about the late reply, rough day at work.

The battery icon shows fine for me if I choose either Traditional pulldown or Traditional scrollable:

Also, the lockscreen targets are on my list to merge. I'm not sure if you guys notice, but there are some things that are missing from their base. For example, there are CyanogenMod features that are missing, and there are some AOKP features that are missing. If a feature from one base conflicts with the other, then it gets disabled or tossed out until I can merge them. Now I COULD merge all CM and AOKP together, but that'll create multiple conflicts and result in crashes and instability, and we don't want that. But they are on my list. :fingers-crossed:

In the meantime, you can set Navigation Ring targets in ROM Control :good:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bariz143:
Do we have lockscreen notifications on this ROM?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
Yes, in the lock screen section of ROM Control

any recommandation for kernel settings or it is better to keep it stock ?

for the base read OP mate
[Nexus 5 Android Development] cherubashe:
I did, that was why it says "it is" not "is it". Just wanted to know if there was an issue coming from aosp to cm
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
Hey! Yes I remember you. Always great to see anyone from the old days. Since this is CM based, and the kernel is CM based, then yes. CAF/CM kernels SHOULD work, but be prepared of they don't.

There shouldn't be an issue coming from AOSP to CM. Try wiping your data when flashing. If TWRP says the flash failed, then try re-downloading the zip.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] cherubashe:
Assert failed: getprop ("ro. bootloader " = HHZ11K

E: error executing updater binary in zip

That's what I get when I try to flash.. Any ideas

Tnx a lot man!!!I found my new rom!!!!This is very amazing....fast and stable.....are you planning to make a new version every week?Tnx a lot and congratz for your amazing job!!!:good:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
The plan is to have a release around every 7-10 days, depending on the difficulty of feature merges. With that being said, Build 3 may be a little late, seeing how I'm attempting to merge CM Privacy Guard and Protected Apps.
