I'm getting a Failed! in TWRP 2.8.6.1 when flashing latest CAF..i get an "Error flashing zip"

I'm on KK bootloader and non-caf TWRP

I edited update script in the zip to "hammerhead", but I saw also that it checks for a bootloader version..

Should I also edit these lines?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] AvivEliyahu:
A caf recovery is needed in order to flash a caf version
[Nexus 5 Android Development] el_smurfo:
I didn't wipe and it's fine for 2 days now. Updater has been hit or miss all year, including incompatibilities with TWRP. Just get the file from download.cyanogenmod.org and put in cmupdater folder to have the updater recognize it.

No problems here with intigrated superuser... All apps working fine...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] magnamentis:
that's not a helpful answer, sorry, because:

a) other users use other apps than you

b) superuser is known to be behind superSu in actuality and quality, xda is full of cases where superuser fails while superSu basically never does.

of course there is never a rial never but talking less than 0.1% rate i'd say this can be considered never, and then a part of errors are user errors after all.

BTW superSu can survive rom flashes when set up correctly in pro version
[Nexus 5 Android Development] boxcar8028:
Yeah, most apps seem to be working okay with CM’s SU but the one app that I need for ViPER4Android is SELinux Mode Changer. When I use CM’s SU the app would launch only with a blank screen. But it’ll work just find with SuperSU.zip. Viper’s a must.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] dannyella:
Anyone know how to unmount USB-OTG? There is no unmount option in settings storage.:confused:

---------- Post added at 04:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:24 AM ----------

I use viper4android and it works just fine for me with CM's inbuilt superuser. No supersu needed. All my root apps work as intended.

Nightlies requiring format of system partition to boot successfully.

I apologise if this has been talked about, but I couldn't find it.

I've got a nexus 5 and I've tried numerous CM 12 nightlies over the past week or so.

Short version, no matter whether I use cyandelta (even with it's UI error something about io.java I think) or flash a clean nightly with TWRP 2.8.3 with a cache wipe, it just seems to hang on the black "google" screen upon reboot.

I've waited a few minutes there, without it progressing.

So, for now, I have to format system to get a bootable device.

So every nightly I have to start again. It's kind of annoying obviously.

Are other people successfully flashing nightlies without having to format system?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] boxcar8028:
Are you saying that Viper will work without changing the SELinux Mode? with CM12 SU or that SELinux Mode Changer is working for you with CM’s SU. It would be nice to just stay with CM’s SU and not have to re-flash SU.zip after each update. Viper rocks!

My Skype notifications weren't working until I enabled the icon full-time in status bar. But in general yeah it's pretty buggy.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] thisoneguy:
Tried that too still no luck. Is no one else having problems. Hangouts will not notify me that there's a new post, it will update when I go into the conversation but not before.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] firepixel:
Nightlys pretty stable so far, but I prefer unnoficial builds that include some more features :p
[Nexus 5 Android Development] dannyella:
You have to change selinux to permissive which I did with the inbuilt terminal emulator. As for supersu, nope didn't have to flash it...just enabled root in developer options and reboot.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] antrobi3:
Anyone having problems to freeze apps with TiBu ?!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] boxcar8028:
oh I see. you did it with in the terminal emulator as a command. I don't know the command line that's why I need "SELinux Mode Changer" can you help me out and tell me what the command line is so and I give it a try. thanks man! :cyclops:

hi everybody,

any one have issues with wifi connection ( i have a poor connection here on 13/01/2015 nightly on M8974A-2.0.50.2.22 Modem?)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] andrei1015:
I think this is an AOSP bug. It just randomly disconnects you and says Authentication Problem?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] el_smurfo:
No problems here. Could your jack be dirty? I clean mine with alcohol and an ear swab (with most of the cotton removed) whenever I have audio glitches like that.

---------- Post added at 01:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:23 PM ----------

Thought that was only for Oppo because they couldn't fit all their bloat into the system partition?

EDIT: Whoops, you edited yours right as I replied ;)

BTW, looks like the next nightly will be 5.1.1...whatever that includes.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] kajo82:
Hi, i AM on the latest nightly of cm12.1 And i cant find ambient display, is it already present or will be added in the future?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] el_smurfo:
Ambient Display was a feature of the CAF builds only, though no one has commented on why it couldn't be included in the AOSP builds.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] kajo82:
Any other big diference in this 2 versions?

If i want to switch to CAF do i need to factory reset?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] djsubtronic:
So yesterday after hearing the news about CAF being discontinued, I switched to AOSP (dirty flash over CAF, no problems). Used it for a day and a half, and I couldn't take it anymore. Just now I have (dirty) flashed back to the latest CAF. At this point, I think I'm going to stick with CAF and carry on flashing nightlies even if the kernel doesn't get developed further for a while. IMO it's just so much nicer to use than AOSP and also has significantly better battery life.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] el_smurfo:
Huh...other than the screen color calibration, I don't really notice a difference. I switched off the vivid colors the day before flashing AOSP, so it's virtually identical, except perhaps with less freezes and reboots required on AOSP
[Nexus 5 Android Development] djsubtronic:
Few things:

1. Much more responsive on CAF (opening apps, switching apps, typing)

2. Better battery life on CAF

3. Better sound quality (especially on phone speaker) on CAF

4. Vivid colours as you mentioned

5. Overall smoother experience (scrolling, swiping etc)

6. I actually found on AOSP the phone became temporarily unresponsive a lot more than on CAF

7. After 24 hours of uptime, screen sometimes took 2-3 seconds to turn on
[Nexus 5 Android Development] MaxNXS:
Anybody else having BT issues when pairing with cars Audio systems?

I get a BT share crash whenever I try to pair it with my car BT, right after I get prompted to grant access to phone functions and address book.

After that BT on the phone stops working completely and the only way to get it working again is to reboot.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] sjknight413:
This is utter rubbish and you know it.

CAF isn't anywhere near as night and day a difference as you make it out to be, it's more bleeding edge yes but that isn't always a good thing. AOSP or googles factory images and binarys are ALWAYS going to be more stable.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Cheerpipe:
Yes. Or compile yourself.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] AndrasLOHF:
Are the AOSP nightlies still downgrading the radio?

I see in the upcoming nightly changelog for AOSP a mention of doze service. Maybe ambient display will be coming!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] el_smurfo:
...50.2.22
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ASHURiCAN:
Android 5.1.1_r1 merged: Tonight's nightlies will contain the 5.1.1 source released today. Cool [emoji4]
[Nexus 5 Android Development] el_smurfo:
They're up now
[Nexus 5 Android Development] happiness4u:
Seems like the guys out there are talking about a Moto device. I hate unified changelogs. :(

Gotcha
[Nexus 5 Android Development] WhiteWidows:
I thought CAF builds were dead?

https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=hammerheadcaf
[Nexus 5 Android Development] el_smurfo:
CAF support is dead. Someone needs to pull the device from the build manifest.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] fleischbanane:
Yes, radio AND bootloader. It still downgrades it from f to d. :(
[Nexus 5 Android Development] el_smurfo:
So just flash them after ROM?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] dannyella:
I will have to agree with him. CAF nightlies are significantly better in my experience. Nope, Google or AOSP binaries does not always mean more stable. I've had more stability on nightlies than on stock. CM fixed pretty much all annoying issues i had with stock back on 5.0.2...app crashes, memory leaks, audio issues, lag and what not.

Anyways, since CAF support has ended, I'm now looking for custom kernel to give me similar experience without manually tweaking and there.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] fleischbanane:
That's what I'm doing until they update the files.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] dannyella:
Powersave tile works on CAF but not AOSP. Is there a kernel or something that will make functional on AOSP build?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] WhiteWidows:
I wish someone would support caf before they kill it off. It runs so much better then aosp imo
[Nexus 5 Android Development] xiang950315:
Agree you...

That will be very nice!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Sly_67:
I'll stay on CAF until... :)

Nexus 5 CAF CM 12.1
[Nexus 5 Android Development] VQ30DE:
Agreed. I have had better battery life on AOSP, probably because CAF was freezing and rebooting so damn much. I can't say for sure but some of the animations and overall smoothness were better on CAF, but not hugely. What I miss most from CAF is lift to wake! Hopefully it will come soon.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] djsubtronic:
It's really not rubbish. It might not be the case for you, and I never said the difference is night and day, but to me and on my device there is a tangible difference. I wouldn't leave a current and in-development ROM for a defunct one for no reason.

Edit: Just to add, I am comparing only against the previous AOSP nightly since I have always used CAF. The battery is definitely better on CAF in standby. Screen-on-time might be the same. And I've never had a single reboot/crash on any of the CAF builds since day one.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Poerger:
Hey,

running the latest 12.1 and got a problem with the "lock/unlock screen sound". I want this gone but the setting (Settings / Sounds / Other Sounds / Screen Locking Sounds) doesnt change a thing.

Is this broken? Any way to remove that silly sound? Can someone point me to the dir of the file? Tried system/media/audio/ui but it isnt there, or I just cant find it ?!

Thanks for your help in advance

[MENTION=4152171]myfluxi[/MENTION]

Hi, are you able to update modem image to 2.0.50.2.25 in CM-12.1 package/sources? It looks like every flash it downgrades modem to 2.0.50.2.22 which is from 5.0.1 I think.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] coolek33:
I'm pretty happy (battery and performance) with 10.04 nightly cm12 and [MENTION=4152171]myfluxi[/MENTION]'s kernel.

Almost 1,5 year old battery, WiFi and mobile data when needed. Tasker + plus some other background apps. It's pretty good result for my usage.

Is memory leak fixed in 5.1.1
[Nexus 5 Android Development] BAZZI_US:
Do you get any update notifivations from the CM updater? The updater keeps telling me, there were no updates. In fact there have been two new nightlies, which I downloaded and installed manually then.

It seems like the updater only looks for stable versions or something. At least it dosen't show nightlies anymore.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Primokorn:
Bookmark the download center into your browser or use CyanDelta. CM Updater does not work for several nightlies.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] gigis50:
you need to update the changelog link.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] cell2011:
Anyone notice if memory leak fixed in android 5.1.1?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] AvivEliyahu:
install the nightly and check it out. some can take few days till the leak appears and some can take few hours it all depends on your use.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] cell2011:
Till the leak appears? I thought 5.1.1 is a fix for that? 5.1 had this: Some apps - especially Google+ - would restart by itself, active apps would vanish during use and free RAM would suddenly drop from 1.1GB/1.3GB to 700MB/800MB in a few hours.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] jdprocks:
Whats the development status of caf over at aicp

They r too releasing caf nightlies

So is it the same thing as cm that kernel is same and rom is updated??
[Nexus 5 Android Development] AvivEliyahu:
for me it took some time till it appeared (including the redrawing homescreen etc..) with stock 5.1 it takes few hours and on cm it takes a day or two.

im installing the 22/4/15 nightly and will check it out now
[Nexus 5 Android Development] cell2011:
Yes 5.1.1 is supposedly the fix for all that. Please let me know how your experience is with ram
[Nexus 5 Android Development] MaxNXS:
The new build fixed the BT problem!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Primokorn:
Do you have this issue with TWRP nandroid backups on today's nightly (AOSP)?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] AndrasLOHF:
For those still interested in the CAF vs AOSP features. These are options within settings or easily seen differences I noticed and not how one feels vs the other.

CAF: Ambient Display(Fully functional exactly as it works on the Nexus 6)

Color Options(Vivid, Standard, Custom)

In Performance Settings there is an option to automatically change the CPU clock speeds per app(not user definable).

No changeable settings in Performance Settings to the cpu speeds and governor.

Requires CAF TWRP.

AOSP: Downgrades the radio back to 5.0.2

Downgrades the bootloader back to 5.0.2

Low system UI sounds.

No Ambient Display

No Color Options(Vivid, Standard, Custom)

No per app option in Performance Settings.

Has changeable settings in Performance Settings for cpu speeds and governor.

Requires AOSP TWRP.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] simplicio11:
Guys, CAF is dead! Stop asking differences between aosp vs caf.

CM12.1 for Nexus5 is only AOSP (sad, but truly). :crying:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] AndrasLOHF:
This is true but some users would like to know the difference if they are jumping from CAF and no one else has made a compiled definitive list of the differences. Most posts just say "CAF is more better", "AOSP is more stabler", etc. I'm sure for some people the changes are enough to make them shop around for a different ROM and pointing out the differences could save them hours of downloading files, setting things up, possible troubleshooting issues only to be dissatisfied afterwards because there are very different feature sets between the two.

---------- Post added at 08:29 ---------- Previous post was at 08:28 ----------

Why didn't you include the most important part about the color options I had enclosed in parentheses?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] fraussantin:
Ok but it is manual setting.

anyone could understand, mistakenly, that you can not set the colors.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] AndrasLOHF:
Cool deal. I actually think the extra color control in CAF was gamma instead of normal R,G,B and the preset options were myfluxi's gamma settings for Vivid, and normal stock gamma for Standard.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] soldierforchrist2:
Well, after a couple days, it looks like I'm still having the Sprint connectivity problem after disconnecting from Wi-Fi, even after I removed the unnecessary APNs. I'm on the 4/19 CAF nightly. I tried to get a logcat, but there was really nothing relevant there.

I just heard that flashing these nightlies somehow downgrades the radio and HBOOT, so I'm going to try re-flashing those before coming to any conclusions.

Anyone else have Sprint and have any other thoughts on this?

New nightly for hammerhead CAF

New nightly for hammerhead CAF but "CyanogenMod 12.1 for Nexus 5 [CAF]" thread closed. The Captain left the boat but it seems to be still sailing :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] luca.giannatiempo:
I agree with el_smurfo previous quoted post. There is differences yes, but not so big as many says. Talking about numbers is plenty of antutu screenshots with caf and aosp here and we can see that the maximum score reached by caf is about 44000 and with aosp is about 42000. So the difference is 2000/44000= about 4.5%-5% and in my opinion is not "much better". Right, caf build have a couple of functions more (as ambient display) and I would have said " a little bit better" audio, not "much better audio". The difference is not like a Bose audio system vs a Chinese audio system. In the end I think yes, caf is a little bit more performing than aosp, but on the other hand for me caf build has given some trouble (like noise reduction not working while recording a whatsapp message in the car or outside). But I don't agree with people who state the is " much more smoother". For me is "a little bit smoother". By the way, I used both so I tested both and never had freeze with both.

Cheers and enjoy which you prefer.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] :
Dude. Support is dead. So the kernel isn't being updated anymore. As long as Jenkins still builds the nightlies you can grab them. But sooner or later the kernel will be outdated.

Thread has been closed since there are no more updates from myfluxis side + no more discussion needed. If you feel like using CAF you can still use it though.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Sly_67:
It's same device. Same hardware, 5% faster, and smoother is everything we ask.

CAF is what we need. I'm on 04.22. CAF (today's release) and will stay till it dies. ;) :)

[Nexus 5 Android Development] m52 power!:
Long time cataclysm user here and thought I'd try out CM12.1.

I use the OEM google wireless charger to charge my phone every night. I was surprised to find this morning my battery at 30%. Looking at the battery graph log it shows it only charged for around one hour, terminated, and ran off the battery for the remainder of the night. Is this an identified issue?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] AndrasLOHF:
No issue here. I use the official charger at home when I go to bed and a Nokia one on my desk at work.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] djsubtronic:
Enter *#*#4636#*#* in the dialler to enter the Testing menu, go to Phone Information, change Set preferred network type to WCDMA Only. This will force it to use only 3/3.5G networks (if you go into an area without 3G coverage you will be left with no signal). You may need to reapply the setting after a reboot.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] *child:
So do Google stock ROMs for the Nexus devices (i.e. Nexus 5, Nexus 6, etc.) utilize CAF-optimized kernels, or are they based off AOSP?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] :
AOSP.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mshook:
And encryption that is hardware assisted for those who have encrypted devices...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] *child:
Is it true that Google merges CAF into AOSP with each release, so the older the release, the less up-to-date it is with CAF (i.e. Android 4.4 will be less in-sync with CAF than 5.1 )? I am also right to assume that CAF is updated frequently, thus the need for a dedicated CAF CM build?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] inspeckta_dek:
Is there a caf build I can still use? A stable one only for this last month that I'll have this phone. Upgrading to a 6 next month
[Nexus 5 Android Development] andrei1015:
Caf is still building. It won't be getting kernel updates. I think it's stable. Changed back to normal 3 days ago.

google play services crashing

Hey guys, I am running the cm-12.1-20150422-NIGHTLY version with SFCM GApps-5.1-20150404-MINI. The google play services seems to be continuously crashing after rebooting upon installation. I have wipe dalvik/cache before and after installing the ROM and the GApps. Anyone else having this problem? Or is it just me doing something wrong? Thanks.:rolleyes:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] scrack26:
just a question on the CAF, when Ambient Display is enabled, does this effect battery much?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] el_smurfo:
Use banks gapps...always the latest play services.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] AndrasLOHF:
Not at all with the way myfluxi got it to work. I've tried somewhere between 7-10 ROMs with Ambient Display and the CM CAF version is the only that works like it's supposed too.

Ironically enough lift to wake and the screen coming on for notifications is a feature that helps lessen wear on the known Nexus 5 power button issue, which incidentally is what caused myfluxi's phone to fail.

Also, because I can't disable MTP, I think this is preventing me from connecting over ADB.
