for me LP seems much faster and better at multitasking than KK, but maybe is just an impression!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Flash back to the final build of Carbon and use my final franco.Kernel r398-3 (link). It's dramatically faster and better at multitasking, no app FCs, etc. Both my girlfriend and I noticed it immediately. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Punkiderma:
You make me want to try again Kitkat :I but i realy don't want to clean flash for the third time in two days XD
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] n76:
I was running CM11 M12 until I switched to ZMoD and find that ZMoD is much more responsive for me. But I wonder how much that is the result of reformatting /data and /cache to f2fs. CM11 was always pretty responsive after I ran fstrim (for some reason the supposed automatic running of fstrim each day never worked for me) but then would start slowing down immediately and start being laggy and very annoying within a few days. With f2fs and ZMoD it seems to maintain the initial responsiveness. I made two changes at once and cannot determine which change had the biggest effect but know I am happier now with ZMoD.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bamtan2:
I did not mean to imply ZMOD should lose camera capability :P :P :P Just that a build without it would be useful if it indeed saved 200MB RAM. Because then, if we all agreed that more RAM makes this device feel *fantastic*, we could all then focus on optimizing the free RAM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zzpianoman:
The camera isn't the only thing you'd lose - hardware video decoding would also be broken.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] siealex:
200 MB will not make any difference, modern apps require up to 4 GB RAM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bamtan2:
For me Youtube makes the CPU throttle up, and MX player works fastest when set to software decoding. So I'm not sure there is any hardware video decoding happening anyway ;)

200MB would double my free RAM. I will agree to disagree with you about this!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] siealex:
These 200 MB will be immediately cluttered by google services and other unwanted apps. You'll see a difference if you are using one very heavy app like Chrome.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nickdc986:
I'm experiencing a very strange problem, every time I exit WhatsApp and remove it from recent apps, all the messages delete and I'm not getting any notifications.

It is like the app hibernates by himself, but I'm not using any app as greenify or something.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] siealex:
Removing from recents since 4.2 means force stop.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nickdc986:
I know, but I've always removed apps from recents and I've never had this problem before, even with jb or previous version of zmod.

Anyway, WhatsApp deletes all my conversations everytime I remove it from recents, I don't think this is a normal thing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Punkiderma:
I have exactly the same problem. That's why I clean flashed. 3 times.

Before, everything was working well, now I have this problem with whatsapp and I can't figure out what could be the cause
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hardstyle86:
Finally someone with the same problem! I googled it a lot without finding a solution. :(

Some days ago I started to have the same problem, but I'm on Liquid Smooth 4.4.4.

When I kill WhatsApp from recents or reboot the phone, some recent conversations disapper (not always).

It mustn't be related to ROM (as I experience it on a 4.4.4 ROM), nor to a bug of the app (as the problem started without any update of the app), maybe to something like Play Services, I don't know.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nickdc986:
Maybe something related to gapps?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hardstyle86:
I don't think so, I used the same GApps for months and the problem started only recently.

Anyway, my 4.4.4 GApps are different from Zmod Gapps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Punkiderma:
I confirm it's not gapps related, using two different sets of gapps leads to hte same issue.

For me, it started random like a week ago. I think it's a whatsapp problem!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 11zeno11:
Same experience, messages suddenly started disappearing, and now everything it's OK.. I think was a whatsapp problem so.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Punkiderma:
For me it's not, I'm still losing messages... So annoying...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rob420p:
I keep getting a boot loop I wipe install zmod n gapps and i keep getting bootloop?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] draganmk:
Can you please add link to recomended gapps to complete the package. Thanks

EDIT: I found only updated gaps for 5.1.x in topic started from you and TKruzze, but there are no gapps for 4.4.4
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fleischbanane:
I did a clean flash with the latest 06/17 build and tk_gapps-modular-micro-5.1.1-20150613-signed.zip and I have no problems with whatsapp.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mo-om:
Are you using Kernel LuckyK-V.2.4_AK2 ?

I found this issue when using LuckyK-V.2.4_AK2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Open GApps is the way to go for 4.4.x :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Punkiderma:
Smitty full auto, so it's not kernel related...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nickdc986:
I'm with luckyk 2.4 ak2 and i have the issue, but i was with the same kernel before without any whatsapp problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 11zeno11:
For me the whatsap problem has gone after upgrading zmod to latest version but I think it has been a coincidence.. Idk..

Inviato dal mio Galaxy Nexus utilizzando Tapatalk
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fenix46:
Guys I also had problems with whatsapp, and are still on zmod 16/05, sometimes the app will update it reaches you without notification, to me often with facebook, messenger and whatsapp, most likely it will be a problem whatsapp ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SirShima:
Hi guys, yesterday I noticed that Lollipop uses aroud 300mb ram on other devices... Why it eat something around 650mb on our nexus?

My friend just flashed VanirAOSP 5.1 on his Xperia SP (wich is not officially supported by Sony) and he got the same, 300mb ram used.

Is it Kernel related? cuz his device has a 3.4 ...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] siealex:
256 MB are used for hardware video coding and decoding.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hardstyle86:
Maybe a server-side update that is rolling-out for all WhatsApp users.

I still have the problem...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pietrao:
Hi, from this night i've a bootloop!

i did nothing, with 5/16 build, i've tried to flash another biuld but seems that anything changes...

edit:

i've tried to flash the new biuld, another kernel, gapps but nothing changes, adb pushes the file and the zip installs, but after reboot everything is like before.

i'm trying to flash twrp, fastboot says it's ok but still nothing changes...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] musical_chairs:
Interesting! Sounds like it should be a fun summer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bruno3589:
Good morning ZIyann,

first of all thank you for bringing Android 5.1.1 to Galaxy Nexus, I'm really satisfied with it. :good:

I would like however to report a small issue I've been having with ZMod.

Here's the issue I have: 90% of the lockscreen notifications are shown with a white text (I'd like to attach a screenshot, but right now I'm not allowed to).

Not sure what's causing this, but here are some details:

- Did a clean flash

- Not related to GApps (happens with 2 different GApps packages, currently I'm using TK GApps)

- I set an unlock pattern and I chose to "Hide sensitive notification content" when device is locked

Hope this is enough to reproduce the issue, but feel free to ask me further details if needed.

PS Another small issue is the Reboot menu not translated, but I'm not too bothered by that. That said, I can provide you the translation strings if you like.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danny39:
Video recording in snapchat worked for the first day or so (albeit it only recorded five seconds of video), but now it just crashes snapchat and requires a restart to use the camera.

Other than that the only bug/complaint is that I cant play music(Google Play Music) and do anything else without the phone becoming unusable. For example, I can't navigate using Google Maps (or Waze) while playing music without the phone freezing and requiring a battery pull (I left it for a half hour once and it was still frozen). Not sure if this is a kernel issue, as i was using LuckyK 2.4 AK2. I just switched to Full Auto R20 so I'll test and report back.

Edit: Just tested it on Full Auto, same result, except it doesn't require a battery pull. It just shut down both apps.

Edit2: Full Auto is overclocked to 1.6GHz and LuckyK is overclocked to 1.7GHz. Both on Interactive governer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] siealex:
Do not set max frequency above 1036.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danny39:
Alright, done. Why is that though?

Edit: Thanks! That actually fixed the music + maps issue, phone is still extremely laggy while playing music and doing anything else however
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] siealex:
Our CPU is unstable at high frequencies with stock voltages.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danny39:
And Snapchat videos are recording to 9 seconds now so that got better too!

Is there a way to set a custom CPU frequency in Kernel Auditor? My only options around 1036MHz are 920 MHz and 1200MHz
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ibraheeemz:
how to enable root access? I installed it, then gapps, want to use titanium to restore apps, but it failed due to root access, can't find it in Dev options either, any idea?

---------- Post added at 11:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:34 PM ----------

I am also using CWM 6.0.5.1+, and same happened with me, twice so far with two reboots, it stucks at google screen, and have to flash recovery again, also, how to enable root access?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sgspluss:
Guys please as saied in so many threads, use TWRP instead of CWM this will prevent you for such problems!

Also saied few times here in this thread, next time you should use "search thread" function to get your answer.

You have to flash supersu to get root access.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] h3rnand3zz:
Thanks... Wish I new how to do this on my own...!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Younex:
off-mode charging still broken ?

It's fixed on FML... Can't wait for the merge !

Awesome work :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ibraheeemz:
yeah, thanks, tried flashing Super SU in the meantime and it worked, about recovery, normally I use TWRP, don't know why I had to use CWM this time :), anyway thanks for the help,
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jfjoao:
Thanks to [MENTION=4920940]sgspluss[/MENTION] and [MENTION=2633638]Ziyan[/MENTION] for the suport! I used Nexus Root Toolkit now, reinstalled 4.3 ROM and everything is normal!!!!! Yeaaah! :D

But I lost all my data :( anyway, that was my fault xD Thanks, and tomorrow I'll flash it again!

Brazilian here, bad english here :S
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rindmann:
You can read my latest posts in my profile, I had the same problem and I got it fixed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ramosroger:
hey ziyan(or anybody), I noticed your nav and status bar in the screenshot were fully transparent. how do I make mine transparent because mine still have the kitkat shades. Thanks to however answers me because its been killing me since i installed cm12.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rajputrajat:
hi [MENTION=2633638]Ziyan[/MENTION],

request you to add f2fs support, please.

thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vasillek:
+1
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zingzangripper:
i'm really enjoying the rom, so far so good. i like to keep it simple and light, with few apps installed, otherwise it'll drag.

noticed the reported bugs, adding the non-working flashlight.

hoping there's light notifications settings coming, as i hate that notification light during battery charge.

any reports on battery time?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] haidoz:
I used CWM 6.0.4.9

No problem at all for installing this ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ibraheeemz:
Problem isn't with flashing, try retesting and see if it comes back, or stays stuck at Google screen
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] haidoz:
I see, my bad :D

Had previously read about this too.

I haven't done any reset since I'm so happy using this ROM, even without root access.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mn.code:
Flash works, but it is combined with the camera bug. For example, when camera stops working so will flash (even with flashlight apps), so if you reboot your phone it will work again (for some time). This is the only reason lollipop isn't my daily driver yet, it is pretty annoying.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nikodr:
I have latest fml 5.1 with r12. For me everything works, to have to reboot the phone is not bad. I mean i have good recorded videos woth a strange line. I ca use an editor to remove it. Flashlight works. When i want ir if not. I reboot. So ota daily driver for me. All 5.1 roms have such good usage that are daily drivers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cdnron:
This ROM is solid. I've tried other Lollipop ROMs for this phone and there was always something wrong/broken/not working just right. So far so good with this one! Everything seems to work fine except the known bugs. Flashlight works fine for me.

It's a shame that companies give up on older devices, especially since KK and LP are optimized to work on older devices. I understand, companies want to make money and don't want to update older phones to the latest and greatest OS because then there's no reason to buy a new phone. The GNex, and other forgotten higher end phones, are still much better phones than any current entry level Android.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergialess:
This is probably the most stupid and annoying question I've done in time (sorry): would video recording bug be fixable?. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Culex316:
So I have been testing this ROM for an entire weekend now (installed it on Friday night) and no reboots nor any quirky behaviour. It works fine with Bsmitty's kernel R12....only weird thing is that Facebook messenger seems to hang when I installed it....but other than that it is such a smooth ROM and the ART runtime has definitely made an improvement in performance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AllAboutTech:
hi all,

sry for putting again this question, but i am afraid that i can't find the "download section" for download the ROM.

can someone please share with me the link, if possible?

thank you in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] siealex:
No, only the values preset in the kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bamtan2:
I've never heard of that before!

Default kernel at default 1200mhz works fine for me. FullAuto kernel at 1500mhz also seems to work fine for me!

PS: Ideally, if we're having problems, we would use the default kernel before reporting the problem, because the ROM maker can't test all the kernels ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] robocop2000:
When will be available the feature " Extended desktop " in this ROM? I think that it is very helpful for our device!!!

Thanks in advance....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Punkiderma:
Just install xposed with gravitybox and you'll get what you want ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Don't_Know:
[MENTION=2633638]Ziyan[/MENTION]

I really like this ROM. But i have a little Problem with the Mobile Network in Austria. My Homenetwork is 3 Austria (shown 3 AT) and it's Partnernetwork for 2G is T-Mobile. If it switch to the T-Mobile Network (shown as 3-AT) i must turn on Roaming, or my Internetconnection is down.

Can you please add this Network in next release?

Also a Button to clean the recent Apps will be a nice feature.

Thanks for your work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] siealex:
Install xposed with gravitybox and you'll get what you want))) it has an option "enable national roaming".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] novincobra:
i am very happy if you add Color Control function ZIyan! :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] siealex:
What is Color Control? Color multipliers? Install a custom kernel (like LuckyK) and set them in Trickster.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ramosroger:
Hey guys just wanted to know why our gnex requires 256mb for decoding and other phones don't and if its possible to lower the reserved ram to like 100mb
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] robocop2000:
Is it better if the feature is integred in the Rom?

Ziyan could you please add the " Extended desktop" feature in the next ROM's upgrade?

Thank you in advance....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bamtan2:
Ideally everything we want would be integrated. Trades are made because volunteer developers have limited time to maintain features. For a rare feature it may be best to add it manually using Xposed.

I think if we did a poll, most Galaxy Nexus users would have screen burn-in. This means hiding the top and bottom bars doesn't "look" like an improvement :) It's like a sun tan line :)

I've tried hiding those bars with the xposed alpha and it worked in ZMOD. So maybe you'll give it a try. I would only suggest this to someone who has been using their Galaxy Nexus this way for years, because only that person wouldn't have screen burn-in.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Don't_Know:
Thanks. Installed xposed and all wishes comes true. :D:D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mb_3000:
Hi. I installed this rom yesterday and it's been great. Thanks!

One little question, is there a way to get rid of the ugly search bar? It wasn't there yesterday and I'm not sure how did I enable.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nautilus74:
[MENTION=4545566]bamtan2[/MENTION]:

I use only roms with extended desktop more than 2 years now.

(after I changed the display during warranty)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] n76:
My guess is that you put a widget someplace and when you do that it automatically adds that quick search bar. You can disable it by going to settings->apps->all->launcher3 and clearing its data. That will also lose all your placements of app icons, widgets, etc.

There are other launchers you can install that allow you to disable that, but I did not find a launcher that I liked better than the stock one.

Or you can do what I eventually did and remove the search box code from your phone:

adb root

adb remount

adb shell rm -rf /system/app/QuickSearchBox

I don't install gapps, but it is possible that gapps installs a different search box app. In that case you'd have to dig in to figure out what it is and how to remove it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Don't_Know:
You also can use the Nova Laucher. There you can disable the Search Bar.

I think it also possible with xposed and Gravitybox. There you can make a lot of changes which are very usefull. You can find the download here in the forum
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] siealex:
Xposed + XGELS. Or another launcher like Apex, Nova or Trebuchet.

PS, try T9 Launcher, it has a very unusual feature...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alagga:
Is there somewhere a tutotrial on how to switch to f2fs (especially with this rom)?

Thanks in advance :)

Gesendet von meinem Galaxy Nexus mit Hilfe von XDA Forums
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AABatteries:
+1 for a tutorial on how to switch to f2fs :)

Also, there's a new version of TWRP released just today. Can we have a f2fs version of it as well?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aosp:
Well guys looks like my days with my maguro are done cause my poor phone took a swim at the beach without my permission and now it will not turn back on its been fun working on this behind the scenes with team omap4 and I'm confident that the team I helped bring together for this device will keep the GNeX relevant for some time [MENTION=2633638]Ziyan[/MENTION] will make sure ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] erk1725:
Thank you for everything you've done for the GNex [MENTION=2838735]aosp[/MENTION]!!!

Good luck in the future!:good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergialess:
Thanks guy!, you've contributed a lot with help, gits and humor, so it's time for enjoying a new device!!. Good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
I think the newest TWRP supports f2fs already. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
What will you use next?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] n76:
Not positive about that from my reading of various posts over in the TWRP area it seems that support for f2fs is dependent on the kernel and it is possible that the kernel they use for Maguro does not yet support it.

Apparently there is no current maintainer for TWRP on Maguro so issues like mounting encrypted volumes on Maguro are not being addressed. Since Ziyan has been able to build a TWRP with f2fs I guess he knows his way around that code but he probably has his hands full with CM12 and ZMoD.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alagga:
So i googled a bit and found this tutorial http://obihoernchen.net/1032/convert-your-nexus-4-to-f2fs-without-loosing-data/

Will test it the next few days. I'll only skip the adb part and use an OTG-Cable to flash the new rom.

Am i right that I just have to formate /data and /cache to f2fs (/system will stay at EXT4?) like in that description?

And is there a need for this "sd-card permission Script" ?

Thanks :)

Edit: At first flash the f2fs Recovery from the Download Section ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] n76:
FWIW, I did pretty much the same thing as in your linked tutorial except I did not bother to save and restore my data. I was upgrading from CM11 to ZMoD and I wanted to start clean. Also my most important data I sync with other computers so once I got the appropriate apps loaded and configured all my important stuff just showed up on the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jhonnyx:
I'm confident he'll use some sort of some scuba diving equipment for smartphones next time he goes to the beach ;)

We'll miss ya [MENTION=2838735]aosp[/MENTION]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bamtan2:
We donated to get [MENTION=2633638]Ziyan[/MENTION] a new device and we'll donate to get [MENTION=2838735]aosp[/MENTION] one too. You can't escape our grasp that easily!!!!

$10 from 10 people should do it. I will do my part when I get home!

Edit: [MENTION=2838735]aosp[/MENTION] Paypal says "This recipient is currently unable to receive money." :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aosp:
I don't have a PayPal anymore but whatever you can please send it to [MENTION=2633638]Ziyan[/MENTION] once he has enough we will order me another maguro [emoji106]

Also don't forget to mention it here after you send anything so I can thank you guys I truly appreciate it [emoji6]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mb_3000:
soemthing weird happened today. my usb port isn't working anymore. not sure if its something rom related or if it simply died. wanted to boot into safe mode to see if it was maybe some app but I can't find a way to do it. is safe mode present in this rom?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phaleg:
I am pondering to move from kk r2 to latest LP, how is this build performing so far? :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] n76:
I upgraded from CM11 KK to ZModD 5.1 LP a week or so ago. Not sure if it is because I reformatted /data and /cache to f2fs or not but the phone feels smoother and quicker than ever. I really can't tell the difference in UI response between this old phone an the new Android phone we picked up this year (it is also on 5.1 LP).

I am not a heavy phone user and I don't really do texting but the little I've done has had no issues. Camera is working fine for me, both stills and movies. Overall I am very, very happy and very, very impressed with what Ziyan has put together.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phaleg:
A small OT question, how do I realize if my recovery is formatting in f2fs?

My buddies had the feeling it was, but they were not sure...
