I can report that it is working, however I had to MANUALLY enter in the APN settings because data was not working after I immediately flashed. You can manually enter in settings or restore from a backup via titanium backup. I was also having issues with Google Hangouts not signing in but that too was also fixed via titanium backup restoration.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] topjohnwu:
Hello, I have some minor problems.

After messing with the theme settings, I decided to go back to the default one, but then I found some bug.

The lockscreen background is forced to be the Dirty Unicorn one, it won't change along with the wallpaper I have chosen.

It seems to be the theming engine is hijacking the lockscreen background, since it is checked in the theme setting, but I cannot uncheck it.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] tyea:
Same for me.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] mrshades812:
I just installed a theme with a nice lockscreen wallpaper and just chose that and applied.

The new theme engine is buggy on all roms. I was reading a few devs are moving to RRO for theming. https://plus.google.com/+Seanhoyt/posts/U8Ky3bokK4X

Is DU considering this move also?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
Not that I'm aware of. RRO is still in it's infancy. It needs to grow more and have more features before it is considered a viable option.

Any issues you ever have with a particular gapp is not ROM related. That's gapps related. Keep that in mind. As for the APN, I did mention this to you previously as I do not have Flounder calling to bring in APN's. I guess now that we know it works, I could go ahead and do that.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] idelgado782:
I'm not sure why I had the gapps issue. I downloaded the 64bit package from and wiped chache dalvik the usual, but everything seems to be working fine now. As far as the apn I just wanted to share the info. I'm glad you had forewarned me about what the issue would have been, because I don't think I would have been able to figure it out on my own had I not asked ahead of time! The ROM has been working great so far! Thank you !!!
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] D-m-x:
This might be a bit of a specific Question. Yesterday I've ordered a BT Mouse from Amazon to use it with my N9. The Mouse connects fine and runs fine for about 30 seconds, and then it's not usable anymore, laggy as Hell. I've tested a bit and my results are the following:

Nexus 9 running Dirty Unicorns: Usable for about 30 Seconds, only way to get it working again for 30 Seconds is to "Forget" the Connection and Set it up again

Nexus 6 running Euphoria: Same behaviour

Nexus 7 (2012) running Stock 5.0.2: Same behaviour

Nexus 5 running Kit Kat: Works fine!

So I assume either the Mouse is somehow not compatible to 5.0 or Lollipop has a Problem with Bluetooth Mouses. Did anyone test this or know something about it?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] SwoRNLeaDejZ:
As soon as I get home I'll test Bluetooth connection with a generic mouse I have, and also with a Microsoft Bluetooth Wedge mouse and report how each behaves on my N9 and Flo.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] D-m-x:
Thanks, much appreciated :)
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] znarf2369:
hey. i already previously asked about usb otg ntfs support and there was the suggestion to use stickymount to mount my 2tb ntfs hrad drive.

Unfortunately, this doesnt work.

Then, I tried the elementalx custom kernel as is supports ntfs but that didnt worked either. I really would like to use DU on my N9 but I really need this little feature. Do you have any other suggestions that I can try to get my HD working on DU through usb otg?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] strikerdj2011:
just got a nexus 9 any chance you could add support for the lte model please thanks

Problems!

Just flashed this yesterday after reading many great reviews.

Many many FC's (16Gb wifi) its making the device unusable (Flashed in twrp)

can anyone help? - is the latest release severly broken?

Specifically Google App fc's alot. the system freezes up alot, Playstore crashes, gmail, browser/ everything is crashing constantly.

tried fresh install with Minimal Gaaps, Banks Gaaps and also Full Gapps.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] D-m-x:
Latest Gapps released by Craig are wonky for me. Either use the package from 22/04 or other Package that has been reported working the last 2 pages.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] ameeno:
Yep

Could i have a link to working GApps, i used all three in the original post! all wonky.

---------- Post added at 05:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:35 PM ----------

Banks seems to have updated his google search app recently, this is the same that keeps crashing.

cannot find a old binaries of Banks Google Apps.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] andreimarinescu:
Same here. All gapps are fcing, any link to a working gapps would be greatly appreciated. Thx.

[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
Hey bro. I don't think that I did. If I did, it must've been a random mishap.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] thomas_pieps:
Clean flash? Had the same with a dirty flash, after wipe and installing the minimal gapps from op, I had no more FC's
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] andreimarinescu:
I'm having issues in doing the wipe. I'm running TWRP 2.8.6.0. I'm wiping the cache, data, system and dalvik cache. However, if I try to wipe the internal storage partition as well, I can't get any ROM to boot properly (DU 9.3 or 9.4). The system boots, but the System UI never appears, the screen remains black. The only way I was able to return to a working state was to change the partition type from f2fs to ext4 and back to f2fs on the internal storage, and then to restore from the nandroid backup.

Is this why I'm getting the FCs? If so, where am I going wrong? I'm starting to suspect that running Android M preview a while ago left some changes to my partitions layout that I'm not aware of. Thanks for any pointers in the right direction! :)
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
Did you restore your vendor partition back to 5.1.1? If not, that could be the culprit.

I personally have not had any FC's, so I'm uncertain why anyone would be experiencing them - although, YMMV on user-to-user basis.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] andreimarinescu:
I did a restore from a nandroid backup, including the vendor partition. That's the first time I actually got into issues with the internal data partition, with the restore initially failing because the fs type was ext4 on Android M vs f2fs on my backup.

I think I'll try to flash a full stock of 5.1.1 and then try again with DU 9.4. I was actually convinced that I'm doing something wrong on my end, but the other reports of none of the GAPPS packages working threw me off track :)

I'll post back my progress as soon as I cover all steps, thanks!
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
That's just people doing things incorrectly. I have zero gapps issues on Flounder.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] andreimarinescu:
You're right. Apparently something was left over from Android M. I flashed the stock 5.1.1 images and then I was able to do a full wipe and install.

DU 9.4 looks great so far. No crashes and it seems even snappier than 9.3 (maybe it's just a placebo effect, but it feels a lot more fluid). Thanks!:)
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
It should be. There were a lot of kernel updates.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] racketier:
I did a clean install of 9.4 using the Banks GAPPS, then another clean install using Mini GAPPS from the OP. With both I'm having issues with Google Play Services and Google Play crashing.

Otherwise the rom greats great and the fasted my tablet as ever been.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
What version of Banks gapps are you using? I'm on 6/6 w/o issues.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] racketier:
I wish I could say the same. I believe I had also tried 6/6. I dirty flashed it first, but after immediately having issues I wiped system/data/cache/dalvik and tried Banks again. Still had issues to wiped a 2nd time and installed Mini GAPPS from OP. Then I had less issues, but still occasional FC of Playstore or Play Services.

This morning I cleared cache and dalvik again, to see if that made any difference. I haven't seen the FC yet, but haven't been on my tablet much today so not sure if that made a difference or not.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Nasty64:
Just got my new Nexus 9 and immediately put DU on it. Great ROM. Thanks!!
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
Neither FC is a big deal, FYI.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] D-m-x:
I thought he meant constant FC. Occasional FC is really not a big deal, I don't even recognize them any more.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] lilliput222:
patching image unconditionally ... what is this for
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] andreimarinescu:
Seems I'm still doing something wrong. After setting everything up I started having random FCs from different google apps (notably AOSP keyboard and Google Play Services/Google App). It would be of no consequence but when the Google App crashes the whole UI freezes on the lock screen and all I can do is reboot. I can unlock the device using my external bluetooth keyboard, but all touch events are gone. I'm using the Google Now launcher, installed from the Play Store.

Another hickup is that downloading apps usually gets stuck during "Installing app". Rebooting solved this temporarily as well.

I installed DU 9.4, Banks 13.06 and the vendor fix over a freshly installed stock 5.1.1. Before flashing I did a full wipe and a format of the data partition. It weird that the issues only started about 1-2 hours after the install, initially everything went without a hitch.

I'll go back to my 9.3 backup and revisit this using the minimal gapps package later this week. Posted this in case anyone else hits such a behaviour and finds what went wrong.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] blabla189:
Yep. Same behavior after doing the same.

[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
Banks is probably having an issue with Play Services on his 6/13 pkg. I'm using 6/6 without issues.

Sounds like some FUBAR sh*t, but I haven't experienced this - so not really much I can do for you.

If I can't replicate it, you're sh*t out of luck without a logcat of the instance.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
Not sure what you're talking about.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] znarf2369:
i think he is asking what that means. this shows up when while flashing.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
Oh, I wouldn't worry about it unless you're getting a failed message in your recovery log.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] znarf2369:
alright. i was wondering what that could mean.

i also had "failed to unmount /system: no such file or directory". is that bad?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] racketier:
By occasional I meant a few times a day. It's pretty annoying because when one of them crashed (Play store or services) the rest of the tablet seemed to seize up and my WiFi would even stop working until I rebooted. Haven't had any issues since clearing cache/dalvik though. No idea why that would help or what my issue was, but all is well right now an my tablet seems to be running great. Thanks for the rom!

For anyone that's still having trouble running Banks, maybe try GAPPS mini instead?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] lilliput222:
Try gaaps mini with bloatware remove script i have no such fc , although someetimes on keyboard
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] lilliput222:
yes same

edit _ using rom .. so awesome ,,, fast and snappier ,,, battery life is great so far ,, frm 26% to 16% over 1 hour SOT , constant downloading , chroming, installing apps and others BS
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
It'll get better with time.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] andreimarinescu:
Yeah, actually I was wondering all day long what logcat says when these states appeared. I didn't actually get to check it as I was at work debugging on other devices. I'm on 9.3 now, but I want to give 9.4 another try as the speed differences are huge. I'll check back during the weekend if I manage to gather some logs. Thanks!
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] ganGeee:
after flashing gapps and DU 9.4, it shows an error message after the boot. it says something wrong with internal and contact the manufacturer. and there are no GAPPS once booted. what to do what to do..

downloaded the latest gapps, all posted in the front page
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] D-m-x:
Indeed, what to do. Seems like a unsolvable problem :(
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] lilliput222:
I think u people should try gapp mini wid bloatware remove script ... I have no such kind of problems
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] flu!d:
After being a long term fan of DU 9.3 I have quite honestly found DU 9.4 to be an absolute nightmare, right from the first moment I tried to install it.

- I used the latest version of TWRP.

- I tried many, many versions of Gapps, all had issues right from the moment of first boot, most were totally un-usable and would simply result in a constant stream of force closes, BANKS Gapps was the only version of Gapps that I could remotely use.

- All installs of DU have been 'clean installs' with full cache/davlik wipes.

Basically, my N9 has become an unstable nightmare, with constant force closes, issues installing apps and WiFi constantly dropping out - The only way to restore WiFi is to fully reboot the N9, until this is done the N9 sits at 'obtaining IP address'.

The thing is, 9.4 is awesome in every other way! Battery life is fantastic and the tablet literally flies!

Does anyone have any idea what I'm missing here as I'm about to throw my N9 out the window!
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] poults:
Had all these exact issues myself, have kept formatting and starting again and eventually my tablet is now usable! The only thing i can come up with is that I was getting bad downloads on the original rom. I'm using minimal gapps and all is good at the moment!

The wifi i have discovered was something to do with it changing between 2.4ghz and 5ghz on my router, changed router settings to 5ghz only and haven't had a problem since. I'm now in love with the tablet again, 5.1.1 from Google is utter tripe. I dont even usually stray to custom roms and run stock rooted but am very glad i have found DU, cheers OP!!
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
I know that some are not aware, but we DU team members do release "Test" builds on G+. Often times, we fix these issues (upstream) that are spoken of here. Said builds can be acquired through the DU Updater.

I think that you guys should check out our G+ community, which you can find a link to in the OP.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] SwoRNLeaDejZ:
To speak of battery life:

I routinely get 8+ hours of SOT with DU, I've posted screenshots in the G+ community, and when my N9 is idle, I lose 1% every 13 hours. Battery life is amazing, and my N9 is flawless in just about every way.

Now for everyone having issues with FC:

I ran into the same problems once after flashing a test build, basically every symptom everyone is describing, from the blank black screen, to constant GApps FC. These are the steps I took to fix it. Will it definitely work for you? I got no clue, but this is how I got back to normal. (These steps will be especially important if you flashed the M preview)

1. Download 5.1.1 factory image.

2. Manually flash the 5.1.1 boot loader only, and then reboot back into the boot loader.

3. Manually flash all other partitions, after manually wiping each one. (Start with boot, then vendor, recovery, cache, and finally system)

4. Reboot into stock recovery and perform a hard factory reset

5. Reboot into 5.1.1 and set your N9 up (don't need to go cray cray, just basic setup). Copy DU and 6/6 banks dynamic to your N9.

6. Reboot back into boot loader and flash latest TWRP

7. Reboot into TWRP and wipe data, system, dalvik, and cache

8. Flash DU (side load if it isn't already on your N9)

9. Perform a factory reset in TWRP for good measure

10. Flash banks gapps

11. Reboot and enjoy DU

Hopefully this will help someone fix some of their issues. Reading through this thread is enraging, because I've flashed every official, weekly, and test build ever released and never had an issue with the exception of one time that was my doing. I've even flashed builds that were never shared with G+ or XDA and not run into any problems. To read this many people having problems getting this to function is insane.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:

[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
WiFi only. I don't own the LTE model, so LTE will not be supported.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] flu!d:
I'm about to update to one of the test builds of 9.4 in the hope that it resolves my issue with the WiFi dropping out and I was wondering if anyone could advise me on the best way to back up all my apps/data so I don't have to go through the dreaded process of downloading/installing/re configuring again.

The one thing Cyanogen have over DU is a fully fledged installer, it's the only thing I miss!
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
That's all good and gravy, but having a full fledged installer does you no good when you should be clean flashing builds.

Use Titanium Backup or Google's backup system.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] SwoRNLeaDejZ:
I've been preaching this **** for months. Let Google backup your apps. You can clean flash and have all your apps back within a half hour.

Guys, I have to say I'm going nuts here....

This is not the first time I have installed a custom rom on my Nexus 9 and the force closes are a real issue, right from first boot after flashing DU 9.4 and Gapps - The device is essentially un-useable.

I'm running the very latest version of TWRP and the install instructions have been followed to the letter, I am running Gapps as listed at the beginning of this thread, prior to this latest install (as posted above) I have also tried BANKS Gapps which still resulted is force closes but at least I was able to initially set up the device - However random force closes were still an issue and WiFi just kept dropping out resulting in WiFi status looping up to 'obtaining IP address' but seeming to be unable to actually obtain an IP via DHCP, the only way to rectify this issue is essentially to reboot the device.

I've used every version of DU prior to this install on my Nexus 9 without issue, but this latest build really does appear to have issues, I don't know what else to do?

Am I alone in my experiences? Has anyone else come across this issue that can shed some light as to what I may be doing wrong? I think the problem may be related to Gapps, although honestly I'm not sure.

If anyone can offer me some assistance, please let me know, because as it stands my N9 is un-useable with force close after force close.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:

I am having random issues with the lock screen. Sometimes when I try to unlock, it instantly relocks and the screen goes black. It gets caught in that loop, and only a reboot works to get out of it. Anyone else see this?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
Capture a logcat of the instance.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] laill:
I experienced such problem before.

Turns out it is the problem of the magnetic sensor, the sensor keeps sending the signal that the cover is on. It can be either hardware problem or software bug.

Thanks. I don't believe it is hardware because I have only seen it on this ROM. I will capture a logcat the next time I see it.
