Updater-script is already modified, so it'll flash. It'd still flash on a clean install as well un-modified (it only croaks when installing over top of other builds, even those that came before it)

Enable it via developer options :)
[RAZR HD Android Development] niksy+:
If you don't do a wipe of /system together with everything else prior to flashing, then I believe that gapps installations are preserved across CM flashes? Or at least I remember that was the case for some period in the past, but I can't remember when was it that they first introduced that... Around cm10, I suppose, since I know I was still with the ole Defy :)

*Still haven't gotten to flashing the new build by C and feel bad about it :(
[RAZR HD Android Development] lcc014:
I just tried, we have to install Gapps. Otherwise, no Google Play at all. This is with latest official nightly.
[RAZR HD Android Development] tripaX8:
Nope, the only account I was prompted to enter was CM account. ( I skiped it)
[RAZR HD Android Development] lcc014:
+1. It never prompted for Google account and it did not have the choice of Google account under Account menu. I tried the same: clean install but not Gapps installation. I had to reinstall Gapps to get back my Google Play Store and then all my Apps from Play stores.
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
Must be a brainfart on my part then. Age, sigh.
[RAZR HD Android Development] peladoro:
I did a factory reset wipe only (option offered in twrp) and yes installed c's build over latest nightly and had gapps. Didn't install it in setup I mean.
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
As long as the nightly you installed over top of is older than my build, I don't expect problems. If the nightly was newer than my build, I expect you to run into issues ;)
[RAZR HD Android Development] peladoro:
Well i installed your build dated the 11th over the 12th nightly so
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
Hmm, could be problems then. Just FYI. Not saying there WILL be if the changes between 11-12 are small enough (and appear to be).

PS... Wolverine > Hulk ;)
[RAZR HD Android Development] Thibault1171:
Still no time to clean flash C's build.

I hope I'll have enough time saturday or sunday.

Btw the "new" XDA theme is nice :D
[RAZR HD Android Development] peladoro:
C, I'm just confirming what you had said previously... I installed your build over latest nightly dated the 12th with just the standard wipe that twrp offers when installing new build and without installing a gapps package and indeed had Google apps available. I have high battery drain and phone felt really warm yesterday though...hulk smash!
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
Have a new build coming up, nothing new feature-wise but config-wise things have changed. What I'd like to see reported on this (for those willing to test it) is results of your attempts to beat it down, however that works for you (basically, on a official build, if something is slow/etc, try it on this. I'm looking for *noticeable* improvements under load, however best you can achieve this).

I use Google Maps as my bloated under-load app and open dozens of other apps, etc. Basically opening anything I can while navigating.

Keep in mind, this is no Moto X or shiny new Moto. It's still a HD :)

Another change is related to governor + power scaling. Would like to hear results of that too.

New build will appear at my storage link in my sig when ready. I'll make sure it's a current build (allowing you to flash over equiv official).

Thanks :)

EDIT: Actually, I feel the need to disclaim that it's entirely possible for this build that I'll post may nix an official build if flashed over top (given that I deviate enough to warrant that), so make a nandroid as usual.
[RAZR HD Android Development] lcc014:
I am loading this build now .....
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
And posting on forum using the same device? Whau, CM12.x is really awesome :D
[RAZR HD Android Development] lcc014:
Yes. :)

Hai [MENTION=4418762]CWGSM3VO[/MENTION] would you please make this rom for xt926 too, i think in here a lot of xt926 users want to try your build :D
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
Holidays almost over, build forthcoming. Sorry folks, just really busy.

RE: XT926, since two folks have asked, I'll produce those builds for a bit as well.
[RAZR HD Android Development] dedik46:
Thank you....:D
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
What about one for xt925z? Two folks have it :D
[RAZR HD Android Development] niksy+:
+1 on the XT926 (and 925z) fronts :D I didn't even pay attention to that the last time around :/ (but I also didn't flash it since I didn't get to it soon enough in the end :( )
[RAZR HD Android Development] amedeh123:
pardon my ignorance, but what is the xt925z?
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
iirc, a xt925 mainboard inside a xt926 maxx (incl. battery) case.
[RAZR HD Android Development] d5grvty:
Hey ya'all, it's been a slice, but I recently picked up a sony Z5 compact.

I've loved my time with the Razr but it's time to move on. I've got an Razr Hd with a cracked screen that is otherwise perfectly functional. I thought I remembered reading that there was a developer looking for a test Razr. If your willing to pay the shipping I've got the phone.

Cheers,

D5

P.S. I'm located in Canada but I do frequent the USA
[RAZR HD Android Development] amedeh123:
[MENTION=2218140]kabaldan[/MENTION] is looking for one IIRC, you could PM him.
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
Trying to catch up from the holidays -- I haven't forgotten anyone :)
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
As you may know, I was testing Turbo 2. To do that, I had to change my SIM to nano and use an adapter for good old Razr HD. To avoid loosing adapter I made really stupid move, put it in the Razr. You can guess what happened when I tried to get it out. Stuck. Unfortunately I didn't do what I did later, open it, remove metal cover... Result is on the photo. I'll try to fix it. I'm good in electronics, soldering (at least I was) but I'm afraid that my Weller is not going to be gentle enough.

Bright side, I've got Moto X Force :) Awesome phone, really recommend. It's already on 6.0.

[YOUTUBE]fTJOL5ikuZA[/YOUTUBE]

So this is not goodbye. I hope to see you in Turbo 2/Force sub-forum. Be careful, Turbo 2 has locked bootloader, Force unlockable.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Thibault1171:
Moto X Force seems to be a really good alternative to RAZR HD, but it's pretty expensive.

I'll maybe buy a Moto X Play or Moto X Style (don't know if they are sell or have the same name everywhere) as they are must cheaper.

I hope you'll be able to fix your old RAZR HD :D
[RAZR HD Android Development] drkdeath5000:
Still happy with my RAZR HD for a while longer, atleast until something similar drops in price.

Looking forward to trying your xt926 build C :D and Z i hope you can fix your RAZR HD so sad to see it like that :crying:
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
Moto X Style/Pure is bigger, has slightly slower SoC (not really noticeable), better screen-to-body ratio, smaller battery and LCD instead of AMOLED. Rest is about the same. Even twrp for the Style works on the Force.

So I thought it's better deal until I tested it after Turbo 2. Battery life is much worse. Not just because the battery capacity itself but because of LCD. Using Moto display (showing notifications, turn on when pick up) really kills battery. On AMOLED no, because it's turns on only necessary pixels. Even with normal usage LCD drains more. Also, after AMOLED (Razr HD has it too), LCD looks washed out. I had to increase brightness to get similar quality and of course, that drains battery even more. If you're curious about Force battery life, check my post here.

Turbo 2/Force is much more expensive but some good deals can be found on ebay. As far as I know, it's already available in your country. So maybe you can find some people who got it when prolonging contract and sell it as new, not needed device. That's how I got it ;)

About Razr HD. I still didn't try to fix it. I have time, tools... just not ready yet to potentially kill it permanently :(
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
I'll be sticking with my HD for some time yet. I'm currently working on producing builds for tonight.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
Good reason for me to finally try to fix it.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Thibault1171:
[MENTION=2559459]Zeljko1234[/MENTION] thanks for those detail.

The only bad thing is the price, so, as long as my RAZR HD is still working, no need to change it

Thanks C flashed this morning (over official) and everything seems to be working really good.

Its too early to say for sure so will report back but to me the phone feels snappier and more responsive than its ever been. :good:

I usually get small freezes while typing in facebook messenger, chrome and various other apps, and i havent seen any said freezes in your build yet.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
Soldering went well yesterday but phone still is not recognizing SIM :(
[RAZR HD Android Development] flying_dutchman:
Hi C, yr build indeed seems very smooth! Flashed over official update, no issue. The last u/official drained battery, believe under control now as well and mobile is less heating.

Txs for the gooood work!

Cheers
[RAZR HD Android Development] lcc014:
So far so good with 1/6 unofficial build. Much faster and another than official build. :)

I'll be gone for a week starting Wednesday (Mexico) -- between now and then I'll be probably not around as much, lots to do before I go :)

Glad everyone who tried is enjoying the builds.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Thibault1171:
Thanks !

I'll flash it soon (clean flash or on top of your latest build)
[RAZR HD Android Development] thunder2132:
Hey guys, I'm running an xt926 with an updated bootloader (kk) and it's unlocked with the latest TWRP from Dhacker29. I've been trying to install the msm8960 base and xt926 (12.1 1/11/2016) builds from CM, but am getting stuck at the CM logo on my first boot. I've tried wiping caches after the install without any success. Today I used RSD Lite and reloaded to the latest stock firmware, reinstalled TWRP and am getting the same results. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
[RAZR HD Android Development] tripaX8:
Hi, It happened to me.

The solutiion I found was to format not only cache, or davlik or system, but also format DATA partition, before flashing.

When formatting data, TWRP does not format your internal sdcard, but you may better make a backup.
[RAZR HD Android Development] thunder2132:
I've been wiping Dalvik, Data, Cache and system, not wiping Internal Storage or Micro SD. I also just tried C's latest build from 1/6 and got the same results. Am I flashing the right build? Should I be flashing MSM8960 base or xt926 or shouldn't it matter? I'm using the Dhacker TWRP from the first post in this thread.

SlimKat Official MSM8960 works great, but it's Kit Kat, and I tend to like CM better than SlimKat.

Fastboot screen reads:

AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S)

10.9B(*) (sha-61146a2, 2014-07-29 08:54:49)

eMMC Info: Size 16GB

Device is UNLOCKED. Status Code 3
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
When coming from stock or any other ROM, you should perform what I term as a "full wipe". Before doing so, backup any data you care about from your external SD card and anything from internal SD storage/card. This would generally include music, video and pictures type data.

Technically, you should wipe/format:

/system

/data

/internal_storage (referred to as /sdcard, this is NOT your external SD card -- there is no need to format external SD card)

/cache

Then use an appropriate recovery to flash. You can safely flash any xt926_msm8960 or any xt926 (non-unified) build. I'm assuming it flashes properly (no errors shown in recovery) but keep in mind that first boot generally will be long until something appears to be happening, especially on a fresh device (ie; completely wiped where it counts, see above).

EDIT: Forgot to mention, keep the CM zip file on your external SD not internal otherwise you'll have nothing to flash after you format the device ;)

EDIT: Also check the OP for additional notes.
[RAZR HD Android Development] thunder2132:
Cool, I just wiped the internal storage and used adb sideload to flash without errors. It sat for about 5 minutes before getting to the "Android is starting..." screen. Oddly, I've not had to wipe internal storage before, I officially feel bad because I even read your recommendations and didn't do it. So, thank you for helping even though I ignored your original advice ;)
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
You wouldn't perform this procedure when going from same build to build. Only when going from one ROM to another (it's a good idea to do this is the general consensus but sometimes you can get away without doing it) would you perform those steps.

EDIT: I should note that camera (for example) can be configured for external storage (and so on...) so it makes it pretty painless nowadays :)
[RAZR HD Android Development] thunder2132:
C, thank you for your help, I appreciate it and the work you do. I used to tinker with AOSP builds back in the Gingerbread/ICS days, so I know it can be time consuming, even more-so when you're actually releasing your work to the public ;)

It looks like I may not be able to use this build (C's or official) because of WiFi disconnects. I've tried both 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz and haven't had any luck fixing the issue. It has been a problem with my phone since I got it, and only stock or the Moto Luge firmware fixes the problem. Thanks again for your help C!
[RAZR HD Android Development] lcc014:
C,

Regarding to the camera storage location. I agree with you that it could be configured for external storage. However, the "external storage" configuration does not stick forever. Sometimes, it will change back to default setup - internal storage. This happens to me many times throughout different nightly builds. So, I always check the camera storage setup before taking pictures. I don't want to move pictures from internal storage to external storage after taking them.

No one file a bug report on this minor issue..... I think that we have to live with it :(
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
We have some experience troubleshooting this :) We could try that. Also, as noted in the OP, our WiFi (prima) driver seems to really dislike older technology, specifically, WPA vs WPA2 and such details. If you have control over your WiFi AP/router, this might be easily fixed.

Unfortunately, I don't have any time today to help with this but more than willing to help when I get back in a week (or someone else here might be able to help).
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
I'm surprised it's not persistent but would make sense (in a way) that upgrades might clobber it. Thanks for the tip, I never bothered looking but I always backup so.. :)
[RAZR HD Android Development] lcc014:
C,

I meant not persistent within a build. So I set it to external storage and used camera in one day. Then few days later, it changed back to default "internal storage" when I used camera.

It definitely not persistent across different builds; that is expected behavior.
[RAZR HD Android Development] thunder2132:
It's worth a shot to troubleshoot it, so here goes with the information drop!

Device xt926 unlocked KK bootloader, no cellular service, wifi-only device

Wireless: Asus RT-AC66u 5.0 GHz or 2.4 GHz (two SSID's) using WPA-2 personal AES

ROM: CM12.1 xt926 1/10/2016 nightly or C's customer CM12.1 1/06/2016 release

Wireless shows as connected, but files won't transfer over the network, play downloads fail or sit with an animated progress bar (the pending one, not the true progress bar) for several minutes before failing or finally beginning to download. Web pages often work, but streaming media does not. Every 5-10 minutes the wifi will disconnect and attempt to reconnect. If a download is failing wifi can be bounced to bring back connectivity, but only for a few seconds. Large files will never download and large apps won't install.

I have also tried connecting to a Cisco Aironet 1142n on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, and a Linksys e3200, both running the same wireless specs as listed above. Stock Kit Kat or the Moto Luge "Play Edition" firmware work fine, all other's I've tried have this issue. I don't mind flashing something that will break WWAN or cellular data, since I don't have a SIM card in the phone and use it as an emulator/VoIP device.

Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help with troubleshooting. Thanks!
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
Need logcat/aplog captures to sort out what the WiFi is doing. Basically, we need to see the phone side of things.

Hello, i have found that after the last upgrade adn making a full reset, now sms app asks permission evfery time i send a message and i couldn't find where to autorize it all the time. Is annoying to have to answer that at every message i send.

¿Is there a solution or workaround?

thankyou

EDIT: Sorry, nevermind. It was under security, SMS limit was set to 0, now i have put it in 5.

Thanks anyway for your work.
[RAZR HD Android Development] amedeh123:
Anyone still having hangs or the "calc" bug?

Im also having blue flashing on the screen sometimes, to the point the phone can get unusable.
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
What build? Are you changing anything under Developer Options?

Leaving for Mexico today, hopefully I can respond before I leave (in a few hours).

Are you running Xposed or any such thing? Lots of variables here but I can say I haven't seen a blue-screen flash in a very long time and I was never affected by the calc bug.
[RAZR HD Android Development] amedeh123:
I have enabled root and advanced reboot, nothing else.

And I dont use xposed or any of those. Coming from a clean flash without restoring backups too

Since yesterday I think I may have fixed it by changing some settings, will report here if I manage to fix it.
[RAZR HD Android Development] niton:
XT926, last build - great battery life,

but lose sim card very often.

Looks like, this problem was fixed in last year builds....

C, would you make builds, based on last stable releases?

Which build is most stable for you?
[RAZR HD Android Development] amedeh123:
This problem returned since some time ago. They are also present on official builds.

The builds C puts out are all based on latest sources for the time, so its on par with official builds commit wise.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Thibault1171:
Hi guys, does anyone already read something about this phone: http://www.elephone.hk/p8000.html

It's pretty cheap on Amazon (~180€ in France), but I don't know if it's worth it. Just as it, I don't plan to buy a new phone in the next couple days (I won't, unless mine suddently dies)
[RAZR HD Android Development] niksy+:
Not this one in particular... But I'm not sold on it anyway (from looking at the sales page) :D Have you checked any review?

I think I'll be still sticking to Moto when I switch to my next phone. I can't leave it behind just yet :) Until then - four RAZR HDs in da house :D
[RAZR HD Android Development] Thibault1171:
Yes there is some review. But I didn't saw the 5.5" screen. It's a bit too much imo.

Same as you, I really want to stay with Moto, but X Force is pretty expensive (and 5.4" screen). Maybe I'll wait for a price drop.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
It's so damn easy to get used to 5.4'' Force curve design is nice and fit pretty well in pocket. I'm still on stock 6.0 without desire to unlock/root.

No need to hurry, it's better to have a stable CM12.1 than a non-optimized CM13 imo

I see nothing on cmxlog13 that indicates our device has CM13 -- I know there's work going on for bringup, if I knew more about how to do this part, I'd have already done it :)

EDIT: New build uploaded, nothing new from my end, just newer source. Next build will incorporate some new changes (nothing too drastic) that I've been soaking here.
[RAZR HD Android Development] niton:
loosing sim card is killing me....

what if I durty update your last clean installed build?

will your fixes stay?
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
Sorry, I don't understand the question. The SIM-loss issue has happened to me, I've never been able to capture why. However, that being said, I have (in the past) removed my SIM card and reinserted it (giving the contacts a clean; you'd be surprised how much pocket lint builds up inside these things) and I can't remember the last time it happened.

The only way to figure out what's going on it someone needs to capture it. I've tried doing so when it happened but end up being late to the party (in other words, I've started logging AFTER it happened, does no good in my opinion) so it's a chicken-and-the-egg issue imo.

My builds are not special per se and may not resolve your issue. You can try a clean install (wipe your device properly however, see OP) for the best possible chance.

The only other thing I can think of is somehow it's a timing/hardware/signal issue. This problem only happens to a few people (maybe more, but only a few reports...)

EDIT: Flashing this build over my previous build would be safe. If you're coming from CM-proper (or another ROM) I would recommend wiping. I'm not a fan of TiBU/data restoring, it introduces problems or older data from older builds.
[RAZR HD Android Development] niksy+:
Probably more :/ I've got this happening only on my Maxx, while it's fine on the other two that are currently in use, but they're both running stock KitKat. My bro used to have an older CM12.1 build on his, that one had the SIM issue, too. It seems to go away once the ROM "settles in" but I'm not sure :/ Or I just reboot less after a while, so I don't notice it as much.

I've no idea what the cause is, but it's not too bad for me... It's worth the cm12.1 experience at least, since I do find it better than 11 :/

Thanks for the new build, C!! I feel terrible about not trying any of these KANGs you've basically created yet :( Will get to fixing that tonight. My 3 months old install is slowly dying.

*EDIT* Alas! No xt926 this time around :( If you get some more time to spare... Please!
[RAZR HD Android Development] niton:
it's signal issue, it's happened when wi-fi or 3g signal is poor.

For exapmle, you connected to wi-fi and switch it off, when 3g is poor.

Or it's happened if FC appeared.

Try to istall latest Instagram app, log in and try to post video.

Phone will reboot and it's lost sim card. 100% guaranty
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
Ouch, that stings a bit ;)

I'll see what I can do. Rebuilding for XT926 takes about 2.5hrs in my VM as I have to wipe my ccache/etc (not enough space to hold build data for both devices...)
