I would have thought so too, but Ziyan has posted a screen shot of M on the GN over on his ZMoD ROM thread. If/when that occurs it will be well received by me but in the meantime 5.1.1 (with perhaps a few more bug fixes) is working well for me and keeping my old phone working well enough for my needs.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ziyan:
As soon as CM13 is buildable (or nightly-ready). AOSP is in pretty good state - I spent half of my weekend with it :rolleyes:

This isn't a qcom device with hundreds of proprietary blobs :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Cool, thx for your engagement!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hemantv:
It seems you've made some progress over that RIL thing. The screenshot shows baseband version while the one you posted in ZMod thread didn't. Waiting for your build. Thanks! :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] biglouis87:
I didn't meant to understimate the devs... I really appreciate their work and I use it everyday on my phone :)

I only wanted to say that GN is a pretty old device, equipped with old hw, so I'm still very surprised that Lollipop can work on it, but I also have to admit that it's still a bit buggy and slower than KK, after a year of development... it's not even official on CM.

So my thought was... it's not dev's fault, but our device it's capable no more to fully support new Android release due to its old hw, and I think it will be worse for Marshmellow.

Maybe I'm totally wrong and Marshmellow will be lighter than Lollipop, I really hope so... :)

Despite these drawbacks, I'll always continue to adopt the latest unstable version to enjoy all the new features... I like to live on the bleeding edge! (And my Arch Linux is the most valuable proof!) :D

So good work Ziyan and thank you very much... I'm always here testing your latest builds! ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nikodr:
How much ram does it use? The amount of free ram is the same? And the new sleep mode that gives more battery is it possible on the galaxy nexus?

I remember when you posted tgat you would work on kernel 3.4 :)

Goo bless you!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skyleth:
How's the process of getting it an official build? Any news about it? I remember Ziyan said there was just a couple of issues to fix before getting it, but I can't find the link
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gnexus2012:
Will this issue ever get fixed? Audio is out of sync on youtube app for example. Is it only me that bothers him? :mad::)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] varadparulekarofficial:
My Galaxy Nexus died some 6 months ago(it had some display issues), I came here after a long time just to see how the development is going on.. It is overwhelming to see [MENTION=2633638]Ziyan[/MENTION] still working on this., Galaxy Nexus would probably never die on XDA.. Keep up with the good work [MENTION=2633638]Ziyan[/MENTION] and other developers.. Kudos to you all.. ??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] natzy85:
And why should Gnex die? I am having a blast with it after so many years. We don't have to follow sheep's that change their phones every year.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hgmichna:
Galaxy Nexus Ageing?

While I love the Galaxy Nexus and still have and use it, I must admit that it is showing age. I was forced to buy a new phone with much more RAM when I noticed that apps running in the background were being kicked out due to lack of RAM.

The typical situation in my case was Google Maps navigating with a track recorder (Locus) and a radar warner running in the background. This usually worked for a while, but then one of the background apps got killed. I guess this happened when some other background task automatically started. It also happened when I opened another app on top, like Hangouts, to send a message. In that case it was often Google Maps that got killed, the app I needed most.

I tried to install a swap file, which might have solved this problem nicely, but the GNex kernel does not support swapping, and I did not want to incur the time and risk of experimenting with the kernel, which is outside my competence.

The other sign of ageing is the general slowness. I guess that is a mixture of a slow processor, slow RAM, and slow flash memory.

That said, if user demands are not so high, the Galaxy Nexus is still a fine, eminently usable phone. And it is the most beautiful phone I have ever seen. The elegance of its design is unsurpassed. All other phones I know look either boring or outright ugly next to a Galaxy Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
The GNex is a really great device with this cm rom. The GNex is much, much faster than the Nexus 7 (2012, with cm12.1) we have in our family. I'm using the OnePlus One with Nexus 10, my wife the Nexus 4 with Nexus7 and our son the GNex. To be honest, if I have to compare the GNex with the Nexus 7 and 10 (all with the latest cm nightlies) I would chose the GNex: fast, reliable, no reboots,...

To make it short: marshmallow for the GNex would be fantastic!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JackSlaterIV:
[MENTION=2633638]Ziyan[/MENTION] Your last CM 12.1 build works very well. No problems so far on my Maguro V3U00M, everything works as expected.

The new BFQ scheduler makes this phone flying. As already reported there is no screen delay when you receive a call. This is the best LP rom, thanks for your work.

I'd suggest you to keep this scheduler as the default one, so you'll receive more feedback. I hope it gets adopted by all kernel developers here.

I ask all readers here to give this rom a try.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] norton75:
Totally agree with armbold.

BFQ scheduler is the main boost element from the previous version and in my opinion should be set as default for all future releases
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] biglouis87:
Freezes

Using the last CM12 build, freezes become more and more frequent... about 1 per day, random. I cannot know when it freeze because it doesn't happen when I use it, but when it's in sleep state... I try to wake it up to use it for a call and it doens't answer. `adb devices` says "offline" and if I try to logcat it says "waiting for device". The only option is to disconnect the battery.

Is it there a way to obtain a log of the moment before it freezes, if it is not connected to the pc (It freezes randomly during the day)? Is it there a way to write the last x lines of logcat to a file on the device, to read it after I reboot?

Does anyone else experience these crashes?

Could it be due to Greenify and Xposed framework?

I would like to give you a log to help fix this issue, or at least to understand the cause.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] norton75:
It seems to be related to the software you have installed; I don't have these software and never had a freeze (only one self reboot some day after the installation of the rom)

Have you tried to uninstall Greenify and Xposed and see if it continues to freeze?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ziyan:
You can also use my new kernel feature, present since half a year, but it seems like nobody noticed when I posted about it:

Holding down the power key for 10 secs will turn off the device. Of course this only works when the kernel isn't frozen (which is rare, really) - so this is always worth a try. Since implementing this feature, I really rarely had to remove the battery (it works in most scenarios, even while stuck on the google screen...).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Polooo2:
Hi,

I am using the 09/27 version, after switching from the old stock rom. So far great version, super fast.

Only issue I have this far is that the wifi sometimes seems to loose the connection. Furthermore it seems that as soon as I switch to the wifi menu it reconnects
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tofublock:
Apparently I panicked and jumped the gun a bit on this one. After the reinstall, I tried 0927 again and it worked for a couple of days once more, but I noticed the battery really taking a dive usually around 3 or 4pm each day.

Since the phone never used to do this before, I couldn't anticipate it and I never got a chance to see how low the battery must have been when the phone started acting up because it never got past the CM load screen.

In conclusion, 0927 didn't mess up my phone and I'm a little dummy, but bfq still causes continuous reboots after a couple days of use. Switching to cfq works so far but is slower.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] biglouis87:
I tried to hold down the power button, I didn't know about this custom feature but it worked in some phone, so I always try... but this time nothing happened. Maybe I didn't wait for 10sec, it could be, I will try.

And what about the log before the freeze? Any idea?

Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ed10vi:
This is probably a stupid question, but I'll ask anyway

Is it possible to use swap?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] biglouis87:
Ok, after the daily freezing i tried to do the power button trick... It worked!! The phone silently shot down and then I turned it on again. Thank you!!

Now only the problem of understanding the cause of the freezes remains.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hanschke:
give me a bday present and a new build ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] opticyclic:
Out of interest, how many proprietary blobs are left?

Is all your work last year getting Lollipop to build transferable to Marshmallow?

Is anyone working on a newer kernel (the latest from Google appears to be 3.18 https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/common/+/android-3.18)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skyleth:
I think I found a bug.

When using the app Dubsmash, I can't record videos with the front camera (which is the one the app uses). The videos are only green and pink-purple lines.

I attached the log. [MENTION=2633638]Ziyan[/MENTION], when you have time let me know if you need something else to check the issue
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] piterdemon:
Lol you want 3.18 for Gnex when even Galaxy S6 have 3.10.90 as newest...

Reach for the stars! Go big or go home! And all that :D

Actually, what I meant was that a while ago there was some work on a 3.4 kernel but it stalled and so we are still on 3.0.

I am just wondering if anyone is doing work with any newer kernels or not.

I'm trying to get a handle on the current and future code statuses.

Blobs, drivers, kernels, what are the key pain points etc

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] biglouis87:
I think it could be the same problem I had... Try setting the preferred install location to Internal device storage.

You can set it via terminal (or adb shell)

su (to get superuser rights)

pm set-install-location 1 (to set install location to internal [0 = auto, 1 = internal, 2 = external])

I had the same problem, I had to used "pico" version and TWRP recovery.

Hi guys, been using the latest version and I only had problem with updating only Facebook apps error 504 from playstore, strange. Any helps?~
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skyleth:
Try facebook lite. Way better for our gnex and batteries

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] netreign:
Download the latest apk from apkmirror, then rename the file to base.apk and boot into recovery. Then use the integrated file explorer to move the base.apk file to /data/app/com.facebook.katana and set 644 permissions. Then reboot and after around 2min on the "Optimizing apps" screen you'll have the latest facebook app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DeoXCodeX:
So afterwards in the future I may update the facebook apps if any updates were available from the playstore?

I'm having some troubles with the last build

-the phone is always crashing while its charging (even sometimes I need to remove the battery to restart it afterwords)

-headphone button is now useless - edit : apparently the microphone and button died on my headset, so might not have a software problem here

I tried going back to a previous build and I get com.android.phone has stopped working in a loop... guess I'll have to wipe it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] natzy85:
curious thing:I dirty flashed latest build over cm11 and it worked well until today when I wiped everything and done a fresh install. Now the wifi connection drops a lot and it takes very much time to recover. Any advice? Also anyone can tell me how I can get rid of facebook lite app to vibrate on notifications? The box is unchecked in the app setting but the phone still vibrates.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JackSlaterIV:
I am seeing the same issue on the last build, but as already said it's an old bug.

Audio is not synchronized with video, not a big delay anyway.

This happens while watching a video on YT, but also with local stored videos.

Not sure if [MENTION=2633638]Ziyan[/MENTION] is aware of this bug.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] [.::MDT::.]:
What does the trimmer app do?

I am not sure I understood... would it make the phone faster?

Do you have to format before trimming? Do you lose your data if you trim your phone?

Tx a lot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skyleth:
I'm not sure what it does, but it makes the phone a lot faster, and you don't lose anything or format

Now I've tried to use the multiuser option but it doesn't seem to be working on latest build.

I followed this two posts:

and

"users" settings doesn't show up anywhere, and if I use the search function, it opens a window that says "users", but it's blank, no options
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ullebe1:
IIRC the multiuser option was intentionally disabled, as the phone often struggles with just a single user, and having multiple available would not make this any better, leading to a much worse experience.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] redcrash:
Hello forum,

early this summer after dirty-upgrading from CM12.x to CM12.x (sorry, I don't remember to which version) I noticed that my Google Nexus was draining the battery very fast. The battery lasted half a day, while before the upgrade it lasted a whole day. I explored the Settings > Battery in order to see what application was consuming more energy I found that it was "Google Play Services". After googling a bit, I found the following video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T34f7P8iipA and I applied it to my phone. After the modification the battery lasts a whole day but after the change a "Google Play Services has stopped" message box appears frequently.

Has anyone found this problem related to the excessive battery consumption due to Google Play Services? And if so, were you able to fix it? And how?

Thank you!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tlwhitec:
I think Google play services don't do that much on their own. This behaviour is quite likely because some other app is mindlessly hammering their API for some info they provide. I saw similar stuff when I had a Gmail app set up with an IMAP account that doesn't support push. But it can be anything. Maybe there's some debugging app for this? As a crude test, you can look what's eating your battery besides GooglePS. Maybe BetterBatteryStats app could help, too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] redcrash:
Thank you tlwhitec. In fact I have Gmail with an IMAP account but I don't know if it supports push. I'll try removing it and see if the behavior improves! I'll also give BetterBatteryStats a try!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fparri:
Hello guys, yesterday I installed this rom, using the 09/27 version, on a friend's Maguro. I used TWRP 2.7.0.0, and OpenGapps Pico (http://opengapps.org/?api=5.1&variant=pico) as it seems to be the only GApps packages I can flash without receiving an out-of-space error.

The problem is, after I turn on the phone, I start receiving Google Play Services has stopped errors, and after a while the system hangs or reboots.

Anyone can suggest me a solution to this? Different rom? Different Gapps package? I am not up to date with Maguro development, as it's not my phone, but a friend's, so I might be missing something... :)

Thanks a lot in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] handofdark:
guys i need quick help. TWRP wipe data is not working for me . can anyone tell me where i messed up ? my data is reaching 4GB almost and i cant clean flash
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AgentSmith:
Format instead of wipe. Be careful as it removes all your data!

Use the Aroma OpenGApps version, and pick only what you need. If you still have space issues, you can also use it to remove stuff from the CM12.1 default installation.

The GNex is condemned to kernel 3.0, as newer kernel versions don't support its SoC anymore.

I had the exact same issues you described with 09/27, OpenGApps Pico and TWRP 2.8.7.0. First I downgraded to 08/31, but had the same audio/video lag issues someone else reported here. Now I'm using 07/28 with no issues so far, except for not having the stagefright vulnerabilities fixed.

Does anyone use Instagram here? Asking because I am using a CM12.1 ROM on my Toro device and when I try to upload a video it states "upload failed". Pics upload just fine. Was on a 4.4.4 ROM and a 4.3 ROM and didn't have this issue. Wondering if it is a 5.1.1 issue with our device, a CM12.1 issue, or just a Toro/Maguro issue. Or a ddk 1.9 issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] defy_owner:
[MENTION=2633638]Ziyan[/MENTION]: I noticed that sometimes the power button stops working, but then the long-press power-off works as expected. What could be?

By the way, may we have a repo-synced build?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] christianpeso:
After some research, it seems to be a known issue with the hardware video encoder and CM12.1 ROMS. I only use Instagram to upload videos and thats when I recognized video uploads do not work. Apparently taking videos in SnapChat does not work either. During research, the issue I was reading about was with Exynos processors and using the hardware encoder to get the camera to work. The guy could of used the software decoder but then that would of broke the camera. [MENTION=2633638]Ziyan[/MENTION], [MENTION=3390093]MWisBest[/MENTION], [MENTION=4531957]musical_chairs[/MENTION], any ideas on getting video encoding to work on CM12.1 for the purposes of uploading video to Instagram or Snapchat?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ziyan:
I think I noticed that on some rare occasions as well - I think pressing a volume button was enough to make the power button work again, so it might be a CM or Android bug.

Repo synced build up in the downloads section, but keep in mind that I just built and flashed this one, so I couldn't test it thoroughly - but there shouldn't be anything wrong with it.

Changelog:

- repo synced on 11/01

- encryption should be fixed (was broken because of a CM change requiring kernel patches - thanks to Simon McVittie for submitting the patches for us)

- reverted back to CFQ as the default I/O governor, but with slice_idle set to 0 - it's a bit faster this way on non-rotational storages, but still slower than BFQ (which I kept in the kernel, just changed back the default until the hangups are fixed - remember to set slice_idle to 0 if you decide to switch back to it as well)

Sadly, I don't have much time to do any real work atm (busy with school and other projects) :crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] opticyclic:
I love how xda is real work and school is something else!

Do you keep a prioritised list of known issues and things to work on?

I dropped down to a KitKat ROM for a while to avoid the purple lines in videos but then got hit by the stuttering video playback that only seemed to get fixed in Lollipop.

It seems like Jelly Bean might be the only platform with no recording and no playback issues :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] defy_owner:
In my case volume buttons don't do anything (maybe because I have set them as a wakeup alternative) the only way I found to fix this is emergency poweroff, terminal poweroff or battery out; in that case even trying to lock the screen trough a software button doesn't work. You can only lock the phone waiting, that's why I reboot it instantly as it happens.

EDIT: Nevermind it just happened and pressing volume buttons re-enabled the power button.

Thanks for the new build [MENTION=2633638]Ziyan[/MENTION]!
