He goes by nprevette420 on droidrzr. he is the maintainer for the kitstalk rom for the HD. Seems like a real nice feller. I guess he is also involved with Blisstalk rom also, or he is just uploading on their server, just a guess. i like his roms.

Looking at the size , id say we have a new rom being tested by us crackflashing guinea pigs,,,, YEEEHAW. Let the rom games begin. DLing now , ill let yall know in a bit, im backing up my sd so i can reformat it to f2f, i did my internal data yesterday. backups made with ext4 show a warning that they may not boot after formatting with f2f, but so far the only backups that havent booted are the ones made After i formatted. im thinking internal and external sd s need to be on the same page or im gonna have this issue till i break down and do this.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Not_A_Dev:
Hold on a minute. You may want to re-think that, and perhaps ask someone else (not me, lol). But I think that you only need to reformat your internal /data and /data/media to f2fs from ext4. Not your external card.
[RAZR HD Android Development] jewbydoo:
Please listen to this person. Note that there is sdcard and sdcard1. It seems that recoveries (CWM 6.0.x.x in my experience) use sdcard" and "storage" somewhat interchangeably.

Bearing that in mind, "sdcard" and "sdcard1" basically means "storage" and "storage1." Internal, then external storage. Of course, the confusion and concern comes when the recovery refers to internal storage as what we call external storage.

When formatting, the recovery referring to "sdcard" merely means wiping internals just like (we hope) you have done many times in the past prior to clean flashing a rom. The content of your external sd card, "sdcard1," will remain intact. Only the internals get cleaned.

Source: I copied external sd card contents to computer for no reason :/
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
If you noticed, I had some problems with the phone recently. I'm worried that something else (kernel probably) causing such problems.
[RAZR HD Android Development] niksy+:
I do remember, I've read that post of yours. Have no idea what happened, though :rolleyes:

My phone turned out fine on the next try. But I've got 2 important lessons to share now:

1. As I already mentioned - BankS' "dynamic gapps" soft bricked my phone. Have no idea why. I'll use his older pre-dynamic pack that I have for now and then switch to a different gapps provider later...

2. Flashing CM12.1 (from internal storage) without wiping internal storage when coming from stock KitKat results in a dead ROM (just spins the bootanimation forever). Thanks to [MENTION=4418762]CWGSM3VO[/MENTION] for this, he mentioned it a few pages back :) And I've just experienced the same thing... As soon as I placed my files on the microSD and wiped internal storage, the freshly flashed ROM booted in 3 and half minutes (I actually timed it, just in case it went over 15 minutes again...).

Cheers :)

*EDIT* Could someone suggest some nice dark/black themes or anything DROID-like, with higher contrasts, for CM12? I may have spent merely minutes on stock KitKat, but it reminded me how much I like that agrressive design. Compared to stock, Lollipop is rather bland and it doesn't do our AMOLED justice, imo :/
[RAZR HD Android Development] IronTechmonkey:
Thanks for heads up about this. If you need it (and it is acceptable for me to re-upload it) I've got Banks' pre-dynamic gapps-L-5-1-15, which worked nicely in earlier tests of CM12.1/L5 .1.x.

True that, which in turn shines a bright garish light (quite appropriate to the L design concept) on the L design concept. All those white backgrounds and excessive animations are horrid and don't add much to the experience (IMO) and... Seriously! - Sliders instead of radio buttons for on/off toggles in settings? Good grief. This is what happens when Marketers with re-branding interests are given louder voices than the devs and programmers.
[RAZR HD Android Development] niksy+:
I've got the same zip :) And that one indeed works 100% fine.

Absolutely agree. But the problem is that my phone is running freaking great on CM12.1 and multitasks incredibly well, so I don't feel like going back to KitKat... And I have to admit I like some of the animations, but most of them are really pointless. And the hipsterish colour scheme just sucks... Maybe we should refresh the "post your homescreen" thread and see who has come up with what in terms of UI customisation :) I'm basically using stock CM12.1 with the Droid Turbo Command Centre. (I wish I could use the Ultra's circle widget, though, it's better looking and more functional :( )

Here are flashable zips for the turbo centre for both KK and LP (I've tested and used both): https://www.dropbox.com/sh/u6caesdxnlkuds0/AADm8eBh_bDWITZcEty1JE0va?dl=0

My phone never sleeps.. Even without gapps.. I'm using official cm12.1 10/5 nightly.. It happens in all lp ROMs.. Is it a common bug?
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
For Gapps, check here: https://twitter.com/dhacker29

Install Wakelock Detector (or something like it) to determine what's keeping your phone awake.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Aingaran:
Its quite evident that android os keeps my phone awake.. Any way to fix it? :(
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
Try to block (set to ignored) play service (gps, wake up, keep awake, auto start) in privacy guard.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Aingaran:
It happens even when gapps is not included! A clean Fashed cm12.1 is not sleeping...

[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
It is there since, well I don't know exactly but pretty sure that was in CM11 too. Settings, privacy, privacy guard. Super user (root) access is part of it too. Maybe you need to enable developer tools.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Aingaran:
This is what I see in privacy guard.. I just clean flashed less than 20 hours...

So tap of one of the apps and you'll see ;)

[RAZR HD Android Development] Aingaran:
Yeah.. I can see the details.. But how to fix it? There is no option to do in android os.. If it is an app I understand it can be denyed some permissions, but what about the system itself?
[RAZR HD Android Development] pbosio:
So... look for Google Play Services...
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
Not the system itself. System is waking up because of services/processes...
[RAZR HD Android Development] Aingaran:
I saw that too.. if you look the first screenshot, you can see keep awake and wake ups of play services is very low compared to android system and phone .. As i said earlier, this problem is there even if gapps (where google play services come from) is not flashed,,, even a clean flash of cm12.1 without anything else added results in no deep sleep...

---------- Post added at 09:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:16 PM ----------

That service is phone. i cant access its permissions either because it also belongs to core android system.. Any other way to identify exactly what causes this issue..?

[RAZR HD Android Development] IronTechmonkey:
This is more of a discussion for the Better Battery Stats thread but here:

Firstly, dont take this as snarky but try doing some research: What I'm sharing here is one of the most frequently suggested ways to isolate wakelocks ever in the history of all universes, including the universe the includes us, google and XDA ;)

In Better Battery Stats, tap where it says "Other" then select "Partial Wakelocks". I bet you find something that matches the awake time of 1h 55m and that it has something to do with wireless. Your Wireless on time is almost exactly the same as the time as you phone's awake time at 1h 55m, which is less than total up time of 3h 37m. Possibly wifi or some app/service that gets active when wifi is on is the cause of the wakelock.

---------- Post added at 02:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:17 PM ----------

Here are more details to the advice provided by Z and others. This takes care of a certain type of Google services wakelock in CM11 and should be similar in CM12 (although I thought this particular wakelock was fixed in CM12/CM12.1).

[EDIT added a preparative step at the beginning*]

- *Enable developer options then, Developer options, Set "Root Access" to "Apps only" or Apps and ADB"

- Settings

- Privacy

- Privacy Guard

- Menu

- Show built-in apps enabled.

- Google Play Services (LONG PRESS)

- Set "Wake up", "Keep awake" and "Auto start" to Denied.

If you disable "Wake Up" of Google Services, don't you loose important features like GCM, Calendar Sycn, Contact Sync, Gmail Sync, etc?
[RAZR HD Android Development] marknoll:
Somewhat...yes. But it will save so much on the battery. All one needs to do is manually open the app. If u don't care to do manually,then disabling those will be a burden

Sent from my MB886
[RAZR HD Android Development] pbosio:
But, Instead of cripple Google Services that way... isn't it better just not to use gapps and use third party alternatives instead?

At least for me those services are the only thing that prevents me from uninstalling gapps , being google cloud messaging a really important service to me and pretty much anybody else that use message applications like whatsapp, telegram, skype, etc.
[RAZR HD Android Development] IronTechmonkey:
Yes, but I don't use any of those things (or anything that runs automatically or syncs in the background) but good point for those who do use those features.

I think a lot of people here would go boogle-less if possible but boogle keeps some hooks in each of us anyhow. You use those sync tools and, In my case it's the Play Store services that I want and occasionally the Google Drive components which add functionality for My Tracks.

Thing is, the issue is inconsistent. MMS works here, mostly does not work there. The most consistent symptom is the large delay in getting MMS messages. Things like receiving pictures, contact information, and group texts are all impacted.

Is your repo ready to sync?
[RAZR HD Android Development] Ustetind:
The only bugs I experience is the snapchat video crash and the blue screen flickering (xt926). The snapchat video bug occured in one of the 12.1 builds (I think), but the blue flickering has been here all along. MMS works fine after applying correct APN settings.
[RAZR HD Android Development] marknoll:
What is ff?
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
Yup, I just built from it. I may need to update roomservice, not sure. I'm @ work right now so I don't have too much time to look right now, it'll have to be later tonight when I get home.

The blue screen flicker can be alleviated by disabling H/W overlay in Developer Options. I saw a commit from dhacker (I think) that stated the blue flicker is due to frame buffers not being filled and it was dropped to whatever is default (2 I think); I changed my source to use 3 frame buffers to give the GPU some extra headroom, and while it does happen, it doesn't happen often. However, while changing this option may help with the flicker, it's not recommended and can lead to performance loss.

Able to get an android 5 ROM for xt925?

Can't get latest nightly CM12 to work, just stays at the bootscreen forever.

Other ROMs give me an error in TWRP because my device is "xt925"

EDIT:

Nevermind, just needed an update CWM. Wasn't easy to find either, tried plenty.

Now the updated CWM (6.0.4.9) says the message for CM12. Someone able to help?

EDIT'ed:

Latest TWRP by dhacker got me in CM12.1

Although still can't install other roms, device xt925 message appears
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
See a few posts back. If you see that message it's due to one of two things (that I'm aware of):

- outdated recovery, you've solved this problem

- outdated ROM. Whether it's JBBL or moto_msm8960 (unified) the latter requires updater-script changes to flash.
[RAZR HD Android Development] SteveBenz:
Ah okay. Thank you.

I officially updated to KK before trying any of this so I assume it's not JBBL. My second time I've revisited this phone in the past 6 months.

Either way it's alright, honestly feel that CM12.1 is the best ROM atm, says nightly but so far nothing really to complain about.

Hoping to get a stable one soon.

Would be the first stable CM. At least according to their repo.

A shame my sim tray never worked. My sibling could use an upgrade from his LG L7. Nothing against LG (Nexus 5 :good:) but their software skills aren't great.
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
Not sure if you mean stable-release or stable-in-general :) If the latter, other than a few edge cases, it's been stable for me since CM10, nightlies that is.
[RAZR HD Android Development] SteveBenz:
Haha meant stable-release.

Is it normal to update with every nightly release? or like once a week?

I'd imagine a nightly release to catch a bug sometime.
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
Yes, bugs do get introduced in nightlies, par for the course. Some people (including me) upgrade daily, sometimes I'll go days before updating. Really depends on what's going on for me in a day :)
[RAZR HD Android Development] SteveBenz:
Alright well that's good. Like knowing people update daily.
