[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
That's because your device does not have the drivers installed properly. There's an additional step that has to be done to achieve full adb control over your device, and it's manual.

Read what's below VERY CAREFULLY and take your time. Don't rush to get to the end cause this is very important stuff. Also DON"T PANIC cause there's nothing to be afraid of.

Click on the link below and download these drivers:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html

Unzip the archive somewhere easy to access.

>>> Now pay attention !!! <<< From the downloaded file, that you just unzipped, you're gonna need only the folder called "usb_driver". Copy it on the desktop for easy access.

Reboot your phone to "Bootloader" then connect it to your computer.

On your computer, go to "Device manager" and at the "Other devices" section, you'll see your phone with the name "Android" and right next to it, to the left, a tiny yellow triangle that has a little exclamation mark inside it. Right click on "Android" and then click on "Update driver software". From the window that just opened, choose the second option, "Browse my computer for driver software". Now click on "Browse" and with the tiny window that opened, navigate to desktop and click only once on "usb_driver" just to highlight it. Don't select any folder that's inside the "usb_driver" folder, cause you need the entire folder's content. So choose "usb_driver", hit "OK", now hit "Next" and the driver will start installing. If you're prompted with a security window, make sure you check "Always trust software from Google.Inc" and hit "Install". After the installation is finished, click on "Close".

Now go back to "Device manager", click on "Action" from the bar up top, and select "Scan for hardware changes".

Your phone should now be listed with the name "Android Bootloader Interface", under the first section called "Android device".

Unplug your phone from your computer and then plug it right back in to reset the connection and your phone will be correctly recognized. Try going to recovery to see if the storage can be seen. If not, try the "Disable storage/Enable storage" mentioned in my previous comment. Or flash twrp 3.0.0.0 found in the same previous comment, cause now you'll be able to flash it via fastboot, perfectly fine.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] arjundas86:
I wonder how he got this far (unlocking bootloader, flashing recovery, and then flashing Chroma) without going through this...
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Yeah, that's odd.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] arjundas86:
If you don't see anything on the internal storage from recovery, there's only 3 reasons I can think of:

1. You formatted internal storage

2. You installed a RUU (most commonly used to install a device's stock image, basically runs a script to flash components onto the various partitions)

3. You tried to change file systems (EXT4 to F2FS or vice-versa) - if this is the case, then make sure you are using the recovery that's compatible with your file system. The standard TWRP from their website is not compatible with F2FS.

However, it's strange that all of a sudden you can't detect your phone on your PC when connected via USB. You would have had to go through the steps that dragon mentioned to get to the point where you installed Chroma on your device. That's why I assumed you had already done all that.

So unless something changed on your computer, it should recognize the phone. Try using a different USB cable - some cables are ****ty and they will let you charge (perhaps slowly), but won't let you transfer data, and might cause your PC to not recognize the device. Try your OEM cable if you can, or a cable that you know is good and works for data transfer on other phones.

Once you establish data transfer communication to your phone, you can copy the rom file (and Gapps) over to the phone, flash it in recovery and you should be in business.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Razorfoot:
Hey man, there's a good side in this.

Soon you will know this stuff a lot more and will have knowledge enough to tweak your phone at your own desire. Autonomy.

Besides the data you lost (which almost everyone here lost theirs too) there is no damage to your phone. As Dragos said, don't need to panic, no reason for that!

Now get this puzzle done! We will help you out! :D

Can i connect phone's internal memory directly to pc?

I have downloaded the ROMs on my phone, and installed recovery throught the ROM manager.

Nexus 4 with Chroma.

I finally unlocked, rooted and installed Chroma on my nexus 4. I'm a noob, but was finally able to do it. My phone is running faster than it ever has and I'm enjoying 6.0.1 on it. Thanks for the tutorials and the hard work the developer put into this.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Alex 9:
I flashed Chroma 2 days ago. Everything works fine. But the battery is draining too fast. I only installed Gaaps. What can I do. :(
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Bedi_:
Anyone noticed that music control with volume rocker while the screen is off is not working? After long press the volume level just get to the max or min...
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Razorfoot:
Now that you mentioned.. it almost blew my ears few days ago.

I listen to music on my tablet so i didnt care much, but it is not working for me too.

Besides this, i have the menu's interface problem and i will have to roll back the Chroma version. Did anyone noticed any improvement in the latest version? I guess i will stay on Feb's and wait for the next one.

Yeah sure thing.

But you'll need the respective drivers installed.

Follow the instructions in Drago's post and you'll be fine :good:

[MENTION=1110248]update[/MENTION]

Okay, i did the dirty flashing, disabled the dark theme and installed the march version.

For what i could notice, the expanded desktop doesnt work. The quick settings doesnt work (yes, i cant access the quick settings menu, it streches only to the notification level) and so on.

In my opinion, such important and sensitive changes in interface (excluding dark theme with that kind of negative impact) should be handled more carefully and delivered more automatedly.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] pjc123:
I was looking at the changelog and I see that the last Google security update applied to Chroma is way back in February (There have been March and April updates since then). I hate to use the phrase "Is this project dead" because I know that developers have a life outside of the free work they are nice enough to supply on XDA. So, just wondering if it is time to move on. Maybe Andorid "N" is being worked on here or elsewhere?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] fr3quency:
Android N doesn't have source code yet

Wtf are you saying? He's probably lazy to add/update stuff.

Hi there when we can download new update for mako?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] isaias1983:
New build soon??
[Nexus 4 Android Development] adefigo:
I don't think so, as I think that mako will be dropped, see zephiKs post in the N6 thread:
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sis71:
that would be very unfortunate . I use it now for several months and am very happy . Which alternative ROM is there for the N4 with good battery life .
[Nexus 4 Android Development] arjundas86:
PureNexus is a great up-to-date Rom. I've gone back and forth between the two, and notice very little difference. It's stable, smooth, great battery life, and has more-or-less all the features Chroma has. It's also AOSP, so whatever kernel you're using now will work the same with it.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] KcLKcL:
If I still have my mako I would continue doing unofficial builds like the early MM days.. I don't have a mako anymore to test nor the disk space (and time) for compiling :|
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Razorfoot:
What about CM based roms? Do you guys know any?

Don't worry zephiK, no need to apologize.

I was waiting for N4 build to test before installing on N6P [emoji13]

Snap Camera

Hello Zephik!

I wish I could use Snap Camera CM instead of the Google Camera. I can install but can not use. You have to allow the use of the app in your rom?

Thank you for your work on this incredible rom.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] hamed_forum:
why in widgets cant use celsius? change to celsius but show fahrenheit
[Nexus 4 Android Development] INSANEVLADI:
Hello zephik,

Thanks for your great work and awesome rom, chroma rocks!

On the other hand, I have a problem atm. I downgraded to the february build with dirty flash up on the march build and now my home button doesnt work. It only works when I hit the recent apps button then i hit the home button. Other than this, i cannot go to my home screen via soft button.

Also, when I play full screen videos or full screen games, status bar doesnt show up when i touch the screen.

Last, there is no shortcut on my lock screen after dirty flashing. I was using default shortcuts (phone and camera) but they disappeared.

Could you please help me about these problems? I really need to fix these problems without clean install. Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
So you downgraded from a more recent build ? Cause downgrading to an older version requires a full wipe.

But I couldn't entirely understand you. Try editing the second paragraph of your comment and make sure the second sentence makes sense cause it kinds doesn't. Fix that and after that you'll get help.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] alveron:
Hi - I dirty flashed to update from an older version of Chroma (updated TWRP). How long should the initial boot up take? I can't get past the logo and its been a little while already. I figure I have to wipe and clean install but just want to make sure.

Update: Fixed my own issue and just did a clean install. Now I'm fighting GApps to get past the setup but I should be able to fix that.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] maxomalny:
Did you installed SuperSU during update? I did, despite the device was already rooted, but the installer didn't recognized root present and my N4 got stuck on bootloop.

So I powered it off, booted in recovery, dirty flashed zip file again without installing SuperSU and now it went through the logo and it's optimizing installed applications (as usual after updating Chroma).

[EDIT]

Everything seems to be working fine.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Loukanov:
Thanks for the update!

After a dirt-flash update I've noticed that torch tile toggle is missing.

Also, according to the change-log it reads AudioFX replaced with MusicFX but I'm unable to find it.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] CatsAreGods:
You have nothing to apologize for!

Thanks for always doing a wonderful job and keeping our devices current and reliable!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] limnaln:
Excuse me for the question but how to use usb otg on the nexus 4. I'm running latest Chroma 5.1.1 + latest Franco kernel. Cheers :)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
First, you need a "Y usb cable" (google it to see what it looks like), "Stick mount" that installs some required drivers (it's in the Play Store), and a flash drive formatted to Fat32 (it won't be recognized otherwise).
[Nexus 4 Android Development] hegderaveendra125:
Amazing ROM!

Everything is fine & really superb!! Loving it....
[Nexus 4 Android Development] carlosmg2:
updated with dirty flash without any problems. Thanks zephik.

The only bug that annoys me is the GPS malfunction where your position jumps between places on Maps :(

Camera

I have problems with the app camera, it closes when moving on to the option of recording video. :(
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Camera v3... is not meant for our N4. The latest working version is v2.7. So uninstall the one on your phone and install thw one from the link below.

This post helped as I was in the same situation earlier when my phone was stuck on boot animation. Thanks a lot !:good:
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Jakub_Z.:
Flashed today latest build with Hellscore 88. Runs smooth and looks promising.

Chroma has all features that I love and nothing more. I can only imagine switching flashlight by holding lock icon on lockscreen but AFAIK its hard to implement in M ;)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Jakub_Z.:
I've found one "little bug/feature" I think. Dunno if its theme related, app related, Layers related or what - but labels in gmail has no color at all. They are gray.

In browser mobile version everything is fine. On desktop also.

It happens no matter which Layers are installed.

It looks like this:

Label "ZAKUPY" here should be Orange ;)

Anyone else has this "bug"?

Hello, Can someone plz report no of used MB in RAM right after boot? I would like to know with stock and Franco kerenl if possible. Thanx.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] morpheusgt:
Hi all,

I've tried Chroma and the Pure Nexus ROM and I cannot pair it with my Moto 360 v2 Android Wear watch (after selecting the watch name to pair it in the Android Wear app, a message saying "Couldn't connect with Moto 360" appears and nothing else happens). I had to go back to stock Lollipop and then it works without problems.

Anyone has any idea what is the cause of this?

Thanks!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] peppens1:
i'm using this rom from different months without problems.

some days ago i tried to install an apk (out of the playstore) but i received the error "there isn't an app to open this file".

in the past i can install all apk without problems.

so, i updated the rom to the lastest version to solve the problems but nothing is changed.

I want to solve the problem without a factory reset/wipe because then i have to download all the apps, do the settings, order the icons on display, login all the social....a waste of time.

anyone has any suggestion?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ajm001:
Download any file manager app from playstore
[Nexus 4 Android Development] peppens1:
I use ASTRO file manager and i can't see the defaul app "Packet Installer" (with green android icon) when i click on the apk name.

Same result with default File Manager.

Today i saw that i haven't the calculator in the list of app :eek:

so i decided to Wipe and re-install the rom.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] CyberZeus1977:
ZephiK removed calculator from the latest ROM build. So, no problem with that. Read changelog next time...

Nexus 6P with Chroma rocks!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Makxie:
thanks [MENTION=1978554]zephiK[/MENTION] for your hard work. I've been using your rom since a couple of months and I regret nothing. Works better than a galaxy s5!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] peppens1:
ah sorry.

i read the changelog very fast and i didn't notice the calculator.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Makxie:
yeah but could you root it after? Same happened to me
[Nexus 4 Android Development] vidit_panchal:
Fresh install the rom & install gapps. Hit 'do not root' in twrp when restarting the phone after the install.

Download & use Nexus Root Toolkit to root the phone once it restarts.

Worked perfectly for me.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Makxie:
Thanks for your reply. Although I fixed it by manually downloading supersu image and flashed it with twrp. Worked perfectly ?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] svoki:
this ROM the best i've seen so far. but i have one question,my battery is draining pretty fast.my current kernel is 3.4.0-perf-g440f1f0CallMeAldy@Codelax.Can anyone suggest me some kernel which will go great with this Chroma ROM and help my battery life a little? Thanks for help, i'm new when it comes to rooting phones,but i love my Nexus 4.

Hi guys. I tried this ROM5-6 months ago and I had some issue, as I don't use Gapps. We still need the gapps package with this ROM ?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ich5003:
Am I the only one expiring issues with the latest updates?

When I first tried to flash the device was stuck in a bootloop.

Then I tried to wipe the whole system and clean flash the new version. The device started but it stopped working at "Starting apps"

Any help here?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Jakub_Z.:
Wipe everything again and try different gapps maybe?

I'm using OpenGapps micro for every ROM and there are no problems.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Makxie:
Did you tried to root it after installing? Don't do it. It makes the phone start a boot loop. Just install it without rooting and then do what I did.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] A.Shin88:
Tried both dirty and clean installation but got boot loop.

Atm i'm back to the old version.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] BobWalker:
As Makxie states in the above post, do not apply root or install SuperSU during the initial install as this results in boot loop. Install chroma and the recommended Gapps, wipe cache and Dalvik, then reboot your phone. After the initial boot has completed, you can return to recovery and install SuperSU if you need root access.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] m_usmanayub:
Does anybody have this hang issue when video is played on youtube and the screen gets green? Can amyone plz guide me how to solve it? I am on build MHC19J (march version)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Makxie:
Is anyone having problems to launch the power off (and restart) menu? ?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Sp3kt3r:
Yes !!

I had this issue with the original lollipop from Google and this is what pushed me to wipe and install custom ROM... Issue was fixed but... Problem is back. Now when I play a video on YouTube it will freeze the whole system UI. I have to wait until I can do a force close. If I had this issue before and still with this ROM I think that it will be the same with another ROM ?!?. If I play YouTube video from chrome and not with the apps it works fine. But this use flash so this is different.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] spookeey:
I have exactly the same problem with latest Chroma :(

Clean Install with recommended GApps.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] A.Shin88:
I installed only the rom and the new gapps ( No supersu ) and that result anyway, for me, in a boot loop.

Honestly, i don't know what i'm doing wrong ?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Makxie:
I don't think you do. In spite it comes as a separate flashable package I'd say installing gapps it's just optional.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Gun_:
Everything fine here. Installed march chroma update + hellscore 88 kernel + wipe dalvik/cache + last xposed framework over February version.

No strange behavior or green youtoube videos so far.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Gun_:
The only time that I had a bootloop I had not only to do a Factory Reset but also go to "advancded wipe" and select system partition.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
What version of twrp are you using ?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Gun_:
Version 2.8.7.0
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Upgrade to 3.0.2.0. After you flash this version, reboot into recovery, delete the TWRP folder found in the internal storage, then wipe everything except for the internal storage and start flashing the ROM, Gapps and whatever else you want.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Gun_:
Thank you for the advice dragos281993, but my phone is working ok. I just was trying to help A.Shin88 with a solution I've done some months ago when I faced the same problem. Perhaps I wasn't clear enough :laugh:
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Yeah, I read your comment again. Conclusion: I need some sleep. I'm exhausted. Good night !!!

Guys, I'm having no problems at all with latest Chroma on HellsCore - runs nice and smooth ;)

I'm really happy with current build.

[MENTION=1978554]zephiK[/MENTION]: can you consider adding 2G/3G toggle to QS tiles? And also I'm still missing holding lock icon to toggle torch on lockscreen - back in 5.x.x days that was really awesome on some ROMs ;) But dunno if its possible on MM.

And I remember reading somwhere that all translations are gone - will be there another "transtating program" in future? ;)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Makxie:
Languages are already back man. He removed them just for one build long ago.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] peppens1:
i have some problems with the last chroma 04/09 and hellscore kernel.

In the past i always used the rom without custom kernel.

but with the last wipe/flash i decided to try this kernel to improve the battery because i bought a huawei watch and i need more battery life.

I followed the settings posted by a user some pages ago but the phone is slow when wakeup from standby and during simple operation.

I deleted the settings but the problem isn't solved.

I loved this rom in the past and i want to wipe and re-flash without custom kernel.

I'm thinking to return to Lollipop stock or flash another marshmellow AOSP.

What do you suggest? anyone with the last version of chroma and stock kernel of the rom....has any problems like mine?

/EDIT

some italian translation in the quick settings are lost in this version of chroma.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Benetti Concórdia BR:
Suggestion

Dear friend! I'm using kernel stock Day minimalOS 29/11. For me this is better kernel stock that has to AOSP versions. Not much better battery life but is the closest to perfection. What's more, no need to make adjustments kernel, the kernel default settings are already well aligned for saving battery and performance. I have helped. Sorry for the bad English.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Gun_:
Hi peppens1,

I'm using last version of Chroma with Hellscore kernel b88 and everthing is fine. Which version have you flashed? Have you changed/tuned anything in the kernel?

Regards
