Listen guys, if you run into an issue and is confirmed to be an issue as in you did a FULL WIPE and avoided any other kernel or outside mods like Xposed or V4A or anything like that, then your best course of action is to report it in JIRA

While XDA is great for quick interaction with us, things do get buried on top of nonsense posts and if you don't report it to JIRA, it could be weeks or even months before someone else reports the same thing and we see it.

It takes 2 minutes to sign up. All we ask is that you do a quick search on there of the reports to avoid duplicates and help us help you in providing as much information as possible but that's it.

Someone will then see it and attempt to duplicate it. If we can duplicate it, we will attempt to fix it.

Anyways, hope everyone is enjoying v10.4

10.4 running great as always. Ran into a small problem with app circle bar or any app that draws over another, like LMT. With those enabled, can't change app permissions in settings on new build. Disable app circle bar, it works as intended. Killer Rom guys, keep up the great work!

See that post, it's BC of new android security update. Apps/features that draw over other apps will have to be updated. Its not anything specific to DU
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] zelendel:
Go into SU a d remove the setting for protect against tap jacking. Not the safest thing to do but it works.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] slothdabski:
Are you sure this will do this trick? He's asking about native marshmallow app permission, not SuperSU grant/deny for root access permission
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Golf c:
Thanks, I did read that post prior to posting. I seem to have the opposite problem. I can deny/allow but cannot manually change permissions in settings. It sends me to the apps that draw over other apps permissions. I think it's the Google's latest July update that broke it. Didn't have this issue on prior weeklie.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] zelendel:
It could also be the appa are not updated properly as I have not had a single issue with the apps I use. They all allow both popup and in app settings.

You know for all this back and forth about it. I still have not seen the basic troubleshooting done.

Grab a logcat and go from there.

I saw that which didn't make since as I have no issues with them at all.

Name an app giving an issue
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
I use Velis Auto Brightness, and I know that Lux and CF.Lumen do this. I have to turn Velis off to grant MM permissions when they pop up. Wear Mini Launcher does it too on the Huawei watch.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] zelendel:
I just tried cf lumen and had no issues with giving or changing the permissions.

I can't really say about the others without more testing as all autobrightness is off for my device and I won't use android wear.

I looked at lmt launcher but won't use it so I will leave it to you guys. I still say grab a logcat. This way you would know for sure what the issue is. Even if you don't understand the issue. Not a bad thing to learn to do.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
I've done logcats for years, trust me. ;)

I chased this issue all over XDA and Google.

This issue is open with Google.

https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=213120#c21

The new MM apps permission can be granted manually, or the offending app can be turned off if needed, as long as it does not break the apps functionality, and that is the problem in a nutshell, if an app needs to write over others to do what is does, it will trigger this. Some bad apps can be updated as Beans states, but overlay apps that control brightness especially are problems. CF.Lumen only does overlays at night and not in the day, depending on settings.

In Settings, Apps > Menu (gear) you can see what apps have this permission.

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] slothdabski:
Probably a gapps issue, i would try a different gapps package and see if that works
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] nixie2121:
I can try a different one. I used the TBO gapps.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
It's because of a whitelist that Google introduced that is causing this issue. However, we've already got a potential fix in testing.

It will never restore the first one u have to put in at the beginning but it should restore all others once your account is fully synced. That's how mine works at least...

Good luck!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mikejr83:
Oh goody! I was thinking my issues were increasing instead of decreasing!

Can confirm this true. What I think is silly is that if you read several screens, and this may be something I read via Google's site and not in the setup screens, it talks about restoring Bluetooth connections. I've never had that happen.

So now on to my "issues".

Since March I've been having weird stability issues. Stock rooted with custom kernel, stock rooted, just plain stock, and on DU I get random force closes and ANRs along with random reboots. If this was something just on a custom kernel or on DU I'd chock it up to running cutting edge stuff or tinkering too far. However, I was flashing back with the factory image and couldn't even go through the setup because I was getting some many process FCs.

I finally got it somewhat stabilized until this past weekend. The phone just started going nuts again. This was stock rooted. I backed up the important stuff from the phone and did a complete wipe. I decided that doing a wipe I would give DU another go. So I flashed stock image and then flashed TWRP. I adb pushed over DU and TBO GApps. Flashed both and then booted. When I got to the welcome screen it was process FC disaster zone. I went back to recovery factory reset, reflashed DU and TBO. THis time I made it through to get in to the system but the while restoring the apps play store FC'd. Wonderful!

Anyhow, I switched over to a different GApps package and reflashed everything. I then used the factory reset in the phone. It reboots to recovery and does its thing. Kinda nice that TWRP picks up on that call. I reboot back into TWRP and wipe EVERYTHING again. Pushed everything back over, verified MD5 (had been all along). Get through setup and start restoring apps. This time is manual restore since play store died in the middle of the last restore. Wonderful trying to find everything in my "all" history.

So it's semi stable for the past day. I've had some weird issues but uninstalling the app and reinstalling seems to fix it. The one big change this time is that I didn't encrypt my data partition during setup.

Ok. So I'm still a little leery of this thing going nutso again. Any ideas on why this would be happening? Is there a way to do fschk or memtest like I would if this was happening on my desktop?

I posted this earlier in the QA section but it seems to be getting nothing in that forum.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Drogean:
have tested Dirty Unicorn with both versions of Elemental X, there doesn't seem to be a way to install it without killing wifi no matter what the method

Have tested Flash rom > reboot> gapps> kernel, Flash rom > flash kernel> reboot, flash rom > flash kernel> flash gapps> reboot - no way to get it working correctly as far as i can see
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] wrongway213:
DU doesn't support custom kernels - any custom kernel related issue you are on your own. This sounds a lot harsher than it actually is - it basically means go to your respective kernel dev with kernel issues and if having ROM issues, try stock kernel and see if issues persist before reporting.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] christianpeso:
I just commented about this in the ElementalX thread so I will copy/pasta here:

I came upon these words in the Chroma ROM thread:

Reason this is important is because I believe DUs latest July build is using R54. I have tried one other kernel that had the July update on DU and it would not see wifi at all. So it is not just about matching a July ROM with a July kernel. Using the latest Blackbird kernel, which is based on the June update, on DU allows me to see networks, but fails at "Authenticating". So it seems to be building with R54 is the issue.

Here is a link to the guy I quoted:

http://xdaforums.com/show...ostcount=30969

Special edit for this DU thread: even though Blackbirds kernel did not connect to wifi networks, it did manage to connect onto those "Xfinitywifi" hotspots that are around the country. After connecting, they have a landing page it goes to for you to insert your zip and email. After that it connected. A regular wpa2 protected network did not authenticate and connect though on this latest July version of DU.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] johnb380:
Blackbird works flawless on the latest DU build for me and all other builds before. All my wifi networks connect fine too. But I did dirty flash the last few builds.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] reaper000:
I've got a clean flash of DU 10.4 with the latest Blackb1rd kernel, and no problems
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ryanguy426:
Any chance of getting KCAL support? I personally feel it's a pretty well known and appreciated feature, and yet this kernel doesn't support it. That's the reason I keep a custom kernel, which sucks because if I need support, I'd like to have it, but can't simply because there's no KCAL support.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] zelendel:
To be honest. If they wanted it they would have added it by now. Something like that might be a better idea to bring back up after the Android N release in October.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] christianpeso:
Are you trying to change the screen colors? If so use Kernel Auditor which has preset screen colors included. Works just fine on stock kernel.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] johnb380:
You can see in the pics the stockk kernel has over 20 preset color calibrations. So Imo you got everything u need to change screen colors how u like. You just need kernel auditor mod by [MENTION=4231562]Yoinx[/MENTION] to get the most out of the kernel.

I was just about to post the same thing.

The system directory is writeable. Is this on purpose or by mistake?

Because it gets reported as security risk by trustable bluebox.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
It's already built into the Unicornblood kernel. I put it there a year ago. It seems like you don't know what you're talking about.

Seriously? Lol.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Utini:
Ye seriously, both sys and system are writeable by everyone. I compared it with the sys folder on my Arch installation and there it isn't writeable.

Also I am curious why trustable by bluebox reports it as security issue then :o
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
I was being sarcastic. Your tinfoil hat stuff is rather irritating and has been for a very long time.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Utini:
Aha, okay.

So, I suppose that means you made it writeable on purpose? Or has it always been like that and it is just the security scanner that is going nuts? But then I still wonder why on e.g. Arch it isnt writeable while on DU it is?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] :
You always have the option of not using DU. :silly:

Seriously. :good:
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Utini:

I am not sure why people feel offended by simple questions. Too much pokemon go?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] slothdabski:
A quick google search would reveal why people would want write access to the system partition. There's an endless number modifications that can be made.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Clark Joseph Kent:
Senior Moderator Darth was being nice to you...

Unlike him, I wont be. So either read and understand what the Dev's are saying or just find another ROM that you suites you. OR just take up Development and do for yourself, seeing how this is a Development Site.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Utini:
I read what the developer wrote. Sorry that I didnt understand his "oh seriously" and "i was sarcastic". It wasn't exactly a meaningfull and content rich explenation.

Ah okay, so for further modifications this is needed. Thanks !
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] :
Have you ever looked at the permissions some apps apparently need? Why ask why? If you're that concerned, don't install or flash those things. Pretty simple.

And I guess you missed my subtle hint? No need to go on about it. This is a development thread.

And "just be quiet?" Keeping it civil is always the way to go.

No one owes you an answer actually, or anything else. You don't like the stuff that's being shared, for free, then don't use it. They are free to create their work however they see fit. And we are free to use it, or not.

You can create your own work too. Another great option! :)

Let's move on and stop cluttering the thread now. :good:

Edit: Ninja'd by the Judge. Lol. Nothing more to say then. :cowboy:
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] johnb380:
When you flash a DU Rom zip it also flashes SuperSU which allows read/write on the root directory and system and actually almost all partitions on your device. If you don't want or need root privileges then unroot in the SuperSU app UI or just flash back to stock Android. But without root you can't tweak your kernel or your dpi or many many more useful things you can do with root access.

Also almost all custom Roms I've tried for the N6 are pre rooted already meaning they all have this same access to alter most files on the device. If you like Arch whatever Rom maybe that Rom will serve your needs better than DU.

There is no reason to sit in here and antagonize good people because you don't understand the basics of Android custom Roms and rooting.

Also if I were you I would definitely google, What do ROOT privileges do on Android, and What is Root on Android.

Good luck.

Actually, he was trying to compare a desktop OS to Android lol..
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] bigrushdog:
That app is probably looking at some flag on the properties of the partition. Just because some flag may indicate "writable" does not mean the partition is mounted rw. Only recovery and root can mount and write to system partition. Try it out! Open a user shell or a file manager app without root perms and try to write to system. Not gonna happen.

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Drogean:
with the release of Pokemon go, I have been using the GPS more than ever and have had nothing but trouble with Android 6.x

It would constantly ake a few minutes to get a decent gps lock in GPS status, and then when I switched apps, it would immediately disconnect, causing the game to continue saying "GPS signal not found"

After trying every workaround I could think of, I finally found one that worked in a heartbeat.

If you open up your root explorer and go to system/etc/gps.conf, there will be a line that says "CAPABILITIES=0x33" or similar, by changing that line to read CAPABILITIES=0x31 and rebooting, gps lock is now almost instant and stays when I switch apps.

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] johnb380:
Maybe a little more info would help friend. What build are you on? Did you dirty flash or clean flash? What kernel are you using or are you on stock kernel? Is Xposed installed? What were you doing or what did you flash right before you had the bootloop?

Have you tried wiping davlik cache and cache in recovery then rebooting? Have you tried wiping system, cache, and davlik cache then dirty flashing ROM again? If neither worked have you tried wiping system, caches, data then clean flashing?

not the problem, I refer to accessing the drive via the DU settings, reason being apps like google play music wont display options to save to said drive. like I said with the N9 its no problem - sees and mounts card and allows saving to. Just wonder if it is working on DU for the 6.

edit : most roms for the 6 don't even seem to have the option to mount an external card / DU does, in the main settings panel under storage/ it just doesn't react to a card inserted in device. 3rd party apps work fine, but I still cant save to from apps like play music.

Hey John,

I posted back a few pages about the issues I was having. Since you asked I'll enumerate them out again :).

I'm on 10.4. I don't remember the minor version number, but it was pulled from the stable folder. - EDIT: Clean flashed. Factory wiped after the first boot for good measure.

I've had problems on all the kernels I've tried. When things were good right after the first flash I went to Franco, but now I'm stocked.

I wouldn't post here if I had Xposed installed ;)

I was experiencing more FCs so I decided to reboot. Nothing flashed right before my last post about not being able to boot.

I did wipe the cache partition. The ADB log that I posted was the boot after I did that.

I've been having this problem on stock, stock rooted, and DU. I'm thinking I might have to bite the bullet and resign myself to the fact that this is probably some hardware issue. Problem is that even on stock non-rooted I get the red warning before boot. Does fastboot oem locking make that go away?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Mazda:
If you have any issues while using another kernel, do a full wipe and flash the ROM again and try to duplicate it with the stock kernel.

If you continue to get this FC of yours, pull a logcat. Telling us that you get a FC doesn't help anything.

We support the ROM itself not the apps or mods you apply after. This includes pokemon, Xposed and the many janky apps you all like.

Go look at the playstore reviews of Pokemon, is a mess of reviews of this app not working on stock ROMs. We're not going to invest any time fixing an app that doesn't even work on stock ROMs that pass CTS.

If you continue to have a problem, report it to the app developers not us. If you don't like my answer, there's always another ROM.

Thank you
