It sounded like racer was using any kernel so he will be good to go on the new one.

I'll send you the changes I make directly so you don't have to try to track them down yourself so you can update them

How to fix common issues.

So i been lurking here for a while reading all the posts and seeing what you all have done about the current issues. I have found solutions for a few.

HotSpot Fix : WiFi Tether Router (Before using, disable "Scanning Always Available" under the advanced settings and hotspot works perfect.

multiple account sync: Do a fresh install, do not setup the google account from the setup screen. Do not use Wifi, once you are past the setup and you are on the home screen. Go to settings and add both accounts and DO NOT enable wifi. This will give the accounts time to sync before updating the google services. Once the accounts are up to date, feel free to use wifi as needed. No FC's on my end.

SMS/MMS replacment with working MMS on T-Mobile with Wifi off: Textra SMS is a great replacement for hangouts and AOSP SMS, has a great quick reply feature too!

I hope this helps anyone with these issues as they worked for me and got me to run this rom.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ramjet73:
I believe that tethering app is the same one I linked in this post and there is a beta version linked there that also works with this ROM. It is supposed to be free to use according to the user that posted it but I haven't verified that.

Also, Textra has a setting for WiFi calling with T-Mobile that allows it to send with WiFi on, and you don't have to be on T-Mobile to use that option.

This doesn't work for me, I don't have mobile data($10 for 100mb no thanks) WiFi is my only way of setting up. So that sucks
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ramjet73:
I don't use multiple Google accounts so I haven't tested this, but if you don't have mobile data you should be able to skip WiFi setup and go into the Play Store settings and disable auto updates completely, then setup WiFi to add and sync your accounts, and then enable Play Store updates.

Or you could make a flashable zip for the Titanium Backup app (it's a feature built into TB), flash that after the ROM, and then freeze the Play Store app right after the initial boot.

Just some ideas that might help but I haven't tested them.

stuck on formatting system

Frequently gets stuck on formatting system, full data partition wipe and adb push is required to reinstall. Very heartbreaking, otherwise a daily driver excellent rom
[Nexus 5 Android Development] donnyp1:
I've experienced none of the issues people are reporting, although I use only one account, so I can't test the multiple accounts. Running b7 and linear 3.2. Flash kernel when flashing ROM. Steller ROM.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] :
Thanks for reiterating what's already been posted.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] jsgraphicart:
You need to give it time. It hangs on that for a while but it does eventually continue.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ben36:
Sykopompos, is it not worth removing the formatting system from the script and just manually do it in TWRP before hand?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] XsMagical:
I'm sorry, was there a problem with gathering all the main issues and putting them in one post with better instructions so that others didn't have to search and keep asking for the solution over and over on multiple posts? I guess this isn't the place to help people. My bad, i'll continue to lurk for now on.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] todorcim:
So I tried everything, and it seems the only way (for me) was a clean install, only sync one account, and resetting play services after set up was done. It seems the second a second account is added it doesn't play nice.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ramjet73:
You've been around long enough to know better than that. ;)

No matter how many times a solution is posted users still fail to search for it or don't understand it when they find it. It never hurts to have additional explanations especially when they are as clear as yours.

There were seven thanks for your post and I'm sure a lot more users than that appreciate your effort to consolidate fixes for some of the most common issues. Please contribute whenever you have something that may be of interest to the community at large. :good:

Here are the ramdisk changes for the next build [MENTION=275009]ramjet73[/MENTION] https://github.com/Android-L-Portin...mmit/9219802e622a75d91e8efe2e79eb43614ad97b20

For everyone else, next build is uploading. Don't use these kernels till they are updated to match it except for Racer, I believe that is a Anykernel version and is not a full boot image so that can be used on the next build with no problems
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ben36:
Ooooooh exciting! ?

[Nexus 5 Android Development] ramjet73:
The ramdisk from 9001 has been merged with The Arkenstone and Linear L kernels. The compatible kernels for the new ROM release end in "+9001" except for the Racer kernels since they use the anykernel installation method and should be compatible with any release of this ROM.

Please report any issues with the "+9001" kernels in this thread since they are temporary versions until [MENTION=1050103]sykopompos[/MENTION] updates his kernel compatibility kit and notifies the developers of the changes they need to incorporate in future versions.

Rom works great but kernels 9001 wont boot up! i use racer for now that works
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ramjet73:
Correct. I'm having problems with the "+9001" kernels as well.

As you suggested, either keep the stock kernel, use one of the Racer versions, or test the faux kernel [MENTION=1050103]sykopompos[/MENTION] just posted for now. I'll work on the Arkenstone and Linear L kernels and post as soon as the boot issue as been fixed.

+9001 Kernels

The boot problem with the "+9001" kernels has been fixed and the attachments in the compatible kernels post have been updated.

It turns out that I was using a tool called "boot-repacker-4.0.1" when I should have been using "Android.Image.Kitchen.v2.0-Win32".

Please report here if you have any problems with the Arkenstone or Linear L kernels that have been updated with the 9001 ramdisk.

Hey, is pin lock issue fixed in this update? And do someone know when Android L will be officially released? (maybe its the last unofficial update or etc?)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] JahSam:
Hi ! I clean flashed the full 9001 and I've got an issue with Waze (FC) is it the same for everyone or it's just me ?

Do some people have any idea of what to do to fix it ? I already try to delet & re install but still the same.

browsers

Hello i got this problem i still cant use other browsers then chrome normaly i use maxthon but it dont load the page does somebody reconize this and know a solution

thanx in advance
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ramjet73:
You mean like this?

Sounds like you need a clean flash.

Do a factory reset and flash the ROM, perform the basic setup and then test the browsers before installing a custom kernel or any other apps.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] xtachix:
Its over 9000!!!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] B@RRY78:
I did a clean flash did the setup installed maxthon it worked then restored apps that I made in titanium update zip then it stopped working on b7 it worked
[Nexus 5 Android Development] peecs121:
So does this newest build require a fresh flash or is it safe to dirty?

[Nexus 5 Android Development] JahSam:
Well, I'm back on the previsou build :/

I have FC on Waze everytime I open the app + some randoms on Aurora (firefox) and batterie drain seems to be way higher than with the last build (same config)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] hipojarty:
after flashing, the phone is now dead :D will try if i can catch the culprit
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ramjet73:
So my conclusion would be that its not the ROM (my screenshot in the previous post is from 9001) but something you installed after the Maxthon browser that broke it.

Did you do a clean install of 9001? You can still help isolate the problem by doing a clean install of 9001 and adding the apps a few at time to determine what breaks Maxthon and apparently some other browser(s) too.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Smallsmx3:
I just read that.... Public release? If there is another public release it sounds like it's not ready for release yet.... Unless the public release is the official. Just speculating
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Apocalypse~:
So, I flashed the racer kernel over 9001, but it didn't work. It is still the original kernel (tyssadar?). I used flashify, so I don't know if it caused an error or not. Maybe, I'll try manually.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] JahSam:
Try with TWRP, it worked for me.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ohad129:
I also back to previuos built i got black screen
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Apocalypse~:
I am using the multirom variant of TWRP, and it flashes the zip file. But once I reboot, the kernel isn't flashed.

To be honest, I just want a kernel so I can change the colors. Any suggestions, since I heard 9001 kernels are giving some problems?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] JahSam:
That's strange, I'm using multirom too... Did you have any messages when you flashed the zip kernel? Is it the latest version?

Just to be sure, maybe re-download the file then flash it...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] XiaoBBB:
I've also tried to flash racer via TWRP, booted and checked, it's still the stock kernel.

The other +9001 kernels work though, successfully flashed both arken and linear.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Apocalypse~:
Same thing. I did a dirty flash, and had flashed SuperSU, though, if it makes any difference.

I'll try the other two.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bodi524:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Apocalypse~:
Okay, so, thanks. arkenstone +9001 kernel flashed just fine. Can finally change that hideous stock color calibration.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] donnyp1:
Wow, with all these people having a few issues, I'm ready to flash 9001 when I get home. No issues on any other versions I try. Can't wait!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Apocalypse~:
The ROM is working fine, to be honest, as far as I have used it yet. I did a dirty flash, and it crashed a couple of apps at boot, but other than that, it's perfectly fine. All apps are working, for now. Let's see how the battery behaves.

And also superuser is out of date and it asks for recovery install. But I want SuperSu by chainfire. Tried installing from play, but shows error while downloading in play. Guess it's cause root is required.

I've dirty flhashed 9001 and I get an issue (FC) on Copilot GPS... I can't either configure kernelLinear 3.2-L+9001 in system -> etc -> Linear.config. :crying:

Any help?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ramjet73:
Click on the link in the upper right hand corner of the SuperSU beta thread OP I linked above and then search for posts by "chainfire". He usually does a mini changelog when posting a new beta and here's the one for 2.11.

I don't know about Copilot since even though I've got it licensed the maps take too much space on my 16GB Nexus 5 (I do use it on my Note 8.0 tablet) but I noticed the same thing about the Linear L 3.2 kernel. I think substituting the 9001 ramdisk for the original may have broken init.d processing so the /etc/linear.conf settings don't get processed at boot time. We'll have to wait for [MENTION=1050103]sykopompos[/MENTION] to work with [MENTION=4950720]hottix[/MENTION] to fix that, but in the meantime I was able to use TricksterMod as an alternative and it works for the features I use.

I know the GPS apps issues like Waze and so forth. I accidentally left something I was testing in that changes the group that the GPS gets used by and it is only letting system GPS apps through.

I'll fix it tonight
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bitstra:
for the GPS issue with CoPilot:

maybe there is the same culprit we had on Flo - GPS-NMEA apps didn't work with a newer AOSP bin of rmt_storage, we had to use an older from 5.9.6 ROM to get the NMEA stuff working on FLO.

it was funny that the normal GPS-apps like Maps worked but not the NMEA-related apps. I Think it would be worth to think about that for the n5 ROM...

---------- Post added at 10:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:17 PM ----------

BTW: If someone would test the GPS Status app from playstore on n5 - and if it retrieves no satellites - then it is the same issue like on n7!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ben36:
Sykopompos already said he knows the issue and will be releasing an update. Besides for now u could just chuck the app in system/app?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] sykopompos:
I changed the location stuff to a system service trying to get the network working for battery saver mode but instead I broke the GPS in 3rd party apps.

Sorry [MENTION=275009]ramjet73[/MENTION] that means the kernels will need to be updated again since the issue is down in the ramdisk service_contexts
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ramjet73:
That should be quick since I already have the three that need to updated in the image kitchen already.

But you forgot your own advice. ;)

[Nexus 5 Android Development] ramjet73:
Would you mind setting up the Linear Kernel for L that way when you have your PC available? I'm still having problems getting a bootable boot.img file with my zip file even using abootimg instead mkbootimg.

Attached is the version of Linear for L that I've been using.

ramjet73
[Nexus 5 Android Development] sykopompos:
Misc drain is incompatible apps and most people read the battery stats wrong. It is 30% of whatever so if you have 75% then 30% of that 25% is what was used.

Truthfully I wish Google would get rid of the battery stats because it is worthless
[Nexus 5 Android Development] sykopompos:
It won't be till later on tonight but sure
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ramjet73:
OK, thanks.

I'm going to keep working on my ramdisk update zip file but I'd like to be able to test the Linear Kernel for L with this ROM if I don't get it working today.

Yea, I don't have my Linux system handy right now so I asked [MENTION=1050103]sykopompos[/MENTION] to do it his way when he can get to his PC.

FYI, I'm working on a flashable zip file that would do the same thing after an L compatible kernel is flashed with this ROM.

And how are you contributing? ;) There's still testing to be done for the proprietary files that might allow kitkat kernels to work with this ROM and all that requires is swapping files with a root explorer.

ramjet73
[Nexus 5 Android Development] RJT71:
No don't get me wrong, hope you will succeed but I thought you where happy with the default kernel.

My contribution is not reaching as far like your contribution. :) But where I can help specially for those questions that has been answered many times I will help the noob that can't find the search button.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ben36:
What happens if you put this boot.img on stock L?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] psycho693:
Send em to me lol
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ramjet73:
The stock L files that need to replace the AOSP versions one at time as well as the AOSP files that [MENTION=1050103]sykopompos[/MENTION] gave me are attached. The ROM version I last tested is here, and that includes only the "most likely" files since I couldn't get it to boot with the "maybe" files.

That ROM version boots with the Hellscore kitkat kernel (also attached) for the Nexus 5 installed, but the camera seems to be borked with a "green screen" effect. The cellular network works fine which it doesn't when the same kernel is flashed to the 5.9.6 ROM.

I think you are waiting for [MENTION=1050103]sykopompos[/MENTION] to give you a test plan which includes the order to swap the modules back to stock and which ones to change at the same time.

BTW, as I've already stated, the only thing I would use a custom kernel for on this ROM is to get some form of touch to wake. I really don't think overclocking and undervolting are going to do a lot to improve it.

Good luck with the testing!

ramjet73
[Nexus 5 Android Development] psycho693:
[MENTION=275009]ramjet73[/MENTION] Yes I have already tested the kernel. As you said I am waiting for [MENTION=1050103]sykopompos[/MENTION] for the list of certain files to test. The kernel definitely Bork's the camera and if you go to flash the stock kernel over hellscore you loose radio functionality except WiFi and soft reboots. I gave logs for all that though.

Also I sent you a pm a couple days ago not sure if you got it or not.
