I haven't had any problems at all....how come so many people have FCS? Are you all doing dirty flashes?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] svnhvn:
Even dirty flashes worked like a charm on my side (always doing dirty in 3-4 last builds).
[Nexus 4 Android Development] l0rionl:
I'll confess, it was a dirty flash.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] hmillos:
Dirty flash here as well, no problems.

BTW i've ditry-flashed since first installation, that was like 5 builds ago.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] s0ur0v:
Blocked caller list never show any call log . acting like CM blacklist
[Nexus 4 Android Development] l0rionl:
Yes, my dirty flashes have been without issue the last few times as well.

...and the alternative gapps that was suggested - Slim Gapps - won't install without a clean flash. Looks like I'm busy tonight after all.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] CyberZeus1977:
Sorry if I ask before testing it, did someone encounter problems pairing a smartwatch with this rom?

Thanks
[Nexus 4 Android Development] robaeh:
No, works great with Sony SW3.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Sugartibbs:
I started over and was fine added blacked out apps, all good,,added g+, and services forced close, any ideas?

I created some log for my sim pin dialog loading twice problem: http://pastebin.com/MihmPv5u

It's throwing some errors at the beginning like:

E/PhoneInterfaceManager( 2355): [PhoneIntfMgr] getIccId: ICC ID is null or empty.

then doing some other stuff and at the end the

D/KeyguardViewMediator( 2056): onSimStateChanged(subId=1, slotId=0,state=PIN_REQUIRED)

kicks in again, probably showing the dialog a second time. Is there something that can be seen in this log to help?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] CyberZeus1977:
After flashing rom zip and gapps, the first boot is longer like stock Lollipop?

Thanks
[Nexus 4 Android Development] TheAH:
Thanks for all the work that has been done in this ROM.

With the latest release of WiFi calling on the Nexus 6, it appears that the new radio will bring the feature to that device. Since it looks like it is device dependent, do you think there's any way to bring it to other devices such as the Nexus 4 and the Nexus 5?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] d9ny:
Adding dt2w on the next build would be nice...after all i have no problems yet doing clean install and banks gapps...so smooth..
[Nexus 4 Android Development] NTLinhHaHa:
dt2w? Use Quanta kernel.

To zephiK: Thank you for all the updates. Love your work :3 It's the first time ambient display works properly on my device ever =))
[Nexus 4 Android Development] steviemch:
Dt2w is a kernel feature, as the user above suggested flash a kernel like Quanta, or (the one I use) Hellscore, to enable it.

someone says this can reduce wakeups up to 50%

i'm not a developer so i can't understand much, thanks:)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] WiwiPouPou:
Google Services keeps crashing every tow minutes, I always clean wipe, and that time I factory reseted.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] russells.android:
AFAIK, it is not a rom problem. The problem is with gapps, spercifically the GPS. There's a discussion going on regarding this one on the slim gapps thread. Oh and btw, i am not experiencing any issues with the latest build.. :silly:
[Nexus 4 Android Development] hamma:
Correct. Latest GPS from apkmirror seems to solve the problems.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sidnoit22:
I hope this is not true http://kickedface.blogspot.in/2015/05/rumor-android-m-will-not-arrive-on.html

And if it is then OP has to make us Android M build! :silly:
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ΦDroid:
I understand your concern, but it really doesn't make sense for them to support a device for this long. It takes resources from their new projects that will actually bring in money. Personally, I was planning to buy a new phone this year anyway, either a Nexus or OnePlus. Three years is a while to use any phone.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] wong.izzat:
If this is true, then we have superb developer such as Sykopompos and Zepnik. These best developers will creates wonders for our Nexus 4. I have faith in them
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Eldmor:
Is there a way to use Xposed with Chroma?

When you install latest Xposed 5.1 Alpha, system says that there isn't enough space (even when I have 290mb free in /system).

I also tried to do what was suggested, remove the lines "dalvik.vm.dex2oat-filter=everything" and "dalvik.vm.image-dex2oat-filter=everything", save and reboot. However, when I reboot those lines get added back to the build.prop --> storage space too low warning.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] yochananmarqos:
That means you never actually removed the lines. You need to remount /system as rw before you can edit & save a system file.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] bart.found:
The good news is that Nexus 7 has almost the same SoC of our beloved Mako.. and it has one more year of official support!! So a lot of Google official stuff could be ported easily.. for everything else there's ... AOSP

XD
[Nexus 4 Android Development] jolinnard:
I have fc's with any GPS version... It doesn't matter if you dirty flash or factory reset (from my experience). Maybe some Google service is causing them, and maybe people that don't have fcs is because they don't use that service (Play Music, Youtube, G+... )
[Nexus 4 Android Development] groovepeppy:
i can never detect my phone location through Android Device Manager

anyone success doing it?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] emperatour:
why home ( middle) button in navigation bar is not working? clean flashed over stock... it must navigate me to home page of luncher, not true?

i flashed gaaps in op also
[Nexus 4 Android Development] steviemch:
Download and flash the rom again, no one else has reported the home button not working, you may have downloaded a corrupt file.

As you haven't provided any logs it's impossible to say what could be wrong.

Problems running Ingress

I wonder if anyone playing Ingress here.

I am using Chroma 05-20, but the same problem existed with the previous version as well.

- Start Ingress

- Switch to another app

- Switch back to Ingress

- Repeat switch / return if necessary, will not take a long time to reach the following state:

Almost the whole client area is dead, no graphics, not even the frames. Comm can be opened, there is the latest content, but not refreshed.

Ingress must be killed, and started over.

I have checked in Ingress commnunity, no one suffers tha same (different Android versions, different phones - all before 5.1.1) with the same Ingress versions.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] MtG92:
That's really strange...I use plenty of Google apps (play music, g+, YouTube, Inbox, Drive, Keep,...) and I never got any FC's :/
[Nexus 4 Android Development] kirito:
Yeah me too.

---------- Post added at 10:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:25 PM ----------

Yeah me too.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] :
No, the latest Google Play Services does not solve it. The problem is, Google Play Services causes a location bug with ASOP ROMs like Chroma. It is triggered when you're using an app that invokes location (GPS) access like Cerberus, Twitter, Google Now Launcher, etc.

The workaround is to disable location access of these apps using App Ops, which is built-in in this ROM, found at Settings/Security. Here's how I made it work:

1. Disable location access permission of apps.

2. Use Battery Saving or Device Only, NOT High Accuracy as your location setting. Don't switch it to the latter, otherwise, you'll get FCs again.

3. Open Google Settings, clear app data. Then clear all data via app info/manage space.

4. Reboot your phone. If you open another app that uses location (GPS) access permission, you'll get FCs again. Just redo steps steps 1-4.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] deedeeceleb:
This was also reported with some other apps like chrome. Im experiencing the same with Ingress ?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] kirito:
Yes, I turn off the gps and problem solved.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] bart.found:
I use battery saving mode... probably for this reason I never had a FC till now.. but will I have FC if I turn on GPS (global positioning system, not google play services XD) to use navigation in google maps or other apps?

Why does Google always release buggy play services? Do you remember the update service battery drain?? :eek:
[Nexus 4 Android Development] :
Good, it worked for you.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Dev Null:
Ingress is the only app which works faulty for me. I mainly use Chrome as browser, without any problem.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] :
Probably you will. Yes, GPS as in Global Positioning System. It seems that the conflict happens in High Accuracy mode where WiFi, GPS and Cellular triangulation are used to detect location.

That's Android. Bleeding edge tech. More problems to figure out, more fun.

It also happens when a certain app uses GPS or when you turn on High Accuracy. Anyway, if it happens, just disable the location access permission of the app that causes it, then, repeat steps 2-4.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] bart.found:
Yes, I love Android and I like to mess up with beta testing and bleeding edge technology.. but Android is a mass OS and sometimes we all need stability and reliability!!

It makes no sense to have an infinite beta testing phase for an app like "inbox" (which is delivered to few people) and release a buggy play services worldwide to all devices!!

I think that Google should release stable version to everyone.. and involve some people into beta testing of new stuff...

My 2 cents..
[Nexus 4 Android Development] :
I'm with you on that. It took me two days to figure out a workaround and my projects at work were kinda delayed. Lol. Anyway, hope Google learns to be really meticulous at ironing out bugs before releasing stuff to the public.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] CyberZeus1977:
I installed this ROM. No problems... excepts... Where is the clock app?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] :
In your app drawer. [emoji1]
[Nexus 4 Android Development] CyberZeus1977:
I don't see it...
[Nexus 4 Android Development] :
Then, maybe there's something wrong. Re-download and reflash. Factory reset, if coming from another ROM.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] CyberZeus1977:
I'm coming from stock 5.1, made factory reset and installed Chroma and Gapps.

Don't want to reflash... Other ideas?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] :
Have you tried rebooting your phone? If still no clock app appears after a reboot, then you probably have to reflash.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] jolinnard:
Ok, thanks. I see now.

I have Cerberus, also Google device admin... But I don't want to deny the location! It would be stupid. I paid for Cerberus to track my phone.

I'll wait until Google fix it or if someone find a patch in the ROM side.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Voxxx:
Try a clock app from market. I have clock...but don't have sms app :)..

so i downloaded textra for sms.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] CyberZeus1977:
Thank you, I'm trying to extract clock apk from 5.5.1 stock image.

I'll keep you updated, if you need sms app!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Aaron_Knowles:
5.5.1?! Can you go in to the future and get me the update too? :D ;)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] CyberZeus1977:
I meant 5.1.1, sorry...
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Voxxx:
thanks , but I like textra more now :)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] adstraylight:
Hmm..what happens if you pull down the notification bar and tap on the clock?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] CyberZeus1977:
Nothing
[Nexus 4 Android Development] adstraylight:
How very odd..do you have a folder called deskclock in /system/app? In this should be an apk of the same name, if so make sure

itspermissions and ownership are the same as for the other system apps.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] CyberZeus1977:
No, I don't have it

---------- Post added at 10:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:05 PM ----------

Can you send me the apk?

---------- Post added at 10:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:19 PM ----------

Nope, extracted from 5.1.1 system.img and installed as system app. Works like a charm!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] adstraylight:
Delete....too late, glad you fixed it :)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] CyberZeus1977:
Thank you, already done!

about OTG

Please if someone tried this rom can inform me if OTG supported on included kernel. As i am very interesting on this function please comfirm if it works good, if yes then how to enable?. Nexus 4 E960.

Thanks in advance
[Nexus 4 Android Development] jolinnard:
OTG is not included in kernel. But you can flash any kernel you want that support OTG.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Csacsifiu:
I don't know what causes this error, i never had this before. I flashed latest chroma and Quanta v5 and when I switch off the network then this warning pops up:
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Zenety:
Does this rom also wipe /system? I'm unable to use TWRP so I can't manually wipe system. Using Flashify to automatically flash in TWRP. But flashify doesn't have an option to wipe /system. Can I add delete_recursive("/system"); to the updater script?

For example here:

mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "/system", "");

delete_recursive("/system");

Or maybe:

unmount("/system");

format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "/system", "");

mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "/system", "");
[Nexus 4 Android Development] caesium2:
Found this in die SAOSP G+ Group:

Updated FIX for Google Play Services FCs :

For people who have Google Play Services FCs on lastest mako (TE) build or after updating to lastest Play Services :

Disable Position/location in permission setting of Google Play Services

To do that :

- App manager

- Google Play Services

- Permission -> Modify

- Disable Positon/location

Done. No more FCs with Maps or other apps which need GPS﻿
[Nexus 4 Android Development] kol1124:
You think that it's called FIX ?

Don't be funny... I use my GPS and location everyday, so it can't help me...

This is just for disable FC's showing, not resolve the problem :(
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Benjamin_L:
Also this removes AGPS functionality
[Nexus 4 Android Development] WiwiPouPou:
Could be the ROMs after all : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=60955636

New slimpop version seems to not have the play services issue.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] l0rionl:
Here's what I did - Up to this point I had been doing dirty flashes, decided to go clean. Clean flashed Chroma 2015-5-20 with Banks GAPPS 5-19-15. FCs persisted.

Then I thought I'd go back to an older GAPPS version - I did another clean flash with Chroma 2015-5-20 but with the previous Banks GAPPS version 5-12-15. It worked fine for a day but then the FCs returned.

For each process I did your steps 1-5 exactly, but for step 6 I did a full restore from backup in both cases (I use Koush's Helium backup app). I must have restored one of the broken system app data.

I have disabled my GPS in the meantime, but I may try to clean flash Chroma 2015-05-12 with Banks 5-12-15 to prove the problem is with the restoration of system data.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] danielcepa:
I'm using latest chroma with banks dynamic 18.05 and have zero problems. Must be some gapps cockup.

Ps. GPS is at 7.3.29
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Electrospaz:
No issues so far

I'm new to the Chroma brand, and after reading all these recent issues I can't say I've had any of these issues.

I started with a clean install of the previous version and the GAPPS provided at that time. I dirty flashed the update. No force closes, no GPS issues whatsoever.

Overall a nice clean stable ROM so far in my case.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] laofan:
Using Gapps from OP.

Running chroma on My Nexus 4 and Nexus 5 almost 3 or 4 days now. Not a single reboot or FC.

Use another gapps , people!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] svnhvn:
Honestly i don't get it why so many of you guys had a lot of troubles using this rom. Never encountered one on my Mako. I always flashing latest build with Banks gapps-L-4-28-15 version (i don't like the bulky one on nowadays release). No matter what kernel i choose. No problems whatsoever until now.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] arffrhn:
This. I am still using banks L-4-21-15 and having 0 problem thus far. Why would people want to update gapps with every new release of the rom though? Dirty flash all the way with every new rom release.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] WiwiPouPou:
NOPE, NOPE, NOPE.

I'm with PA Gapps from March. No matter what, no fc until services are updated to latest version.

I always, always clean flash.

Today I tried to flash with stock gapps extracted by myself from latest Occam factory image : FC begins only 20 minutes after first boot, with nothing but stock chroma installed.

Google has updated their gapps 2 or 3 times in the last days, network location (the culpirt) is especially updated in their change log.

So STOP saying it's users fault, and minimising what is this time a true and big issue ( 3 FC / MINUTE). It's easy to workaround the issue : having GPS set on device only, not using any of the gapps, not having an updated version of play services (which update itself without any input from user are notification.. But I guess someone on cellular permanently should delaying the update).

People from slim says switching from chroma (and other ROMs) to slim fixes the issue, but I'm pretty sure it just delays it (Play services are less than *.69 version).

So, to those with no issue and apparently a bigger brain :) :

Which version of play services do you have onboard ?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] arffrhn:
Hahaha no point getting mad at me cause I don't work for google. I don't have a bigger brain, that would make me look like an alien, having a big brain.

Jokes aside. Let them solve it. If you have a workaround, good. I see you share it there and that is even better. Peace out. I'm done replying.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] svnhvn:
I'm not the person you quoted but..

That is what confused me. Neither dirty or clean flashed, i never had any troubles.

I had 7.3.29 version installed. Want my screen captured?

Else and especially the bigger brain? I'm affraid I'll follow [MENTION=5168788]arffrhn[/MENTION] path.

Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] WiwiPouPou:
I'm 7.5.71, updated from stock gapps.

Issue identified since .69.

That's why you don't have an issue, just update your gapps (automatic in WiFi I guess), and enjoy, dirty or clean or wiped installation...
[Nexus 4 Android Development] quentin2260:
To all :

I just want to tell you that Google play services FCs exist on Simple AOSP ROM too. So its not user fault... Only temp fix is to set GPS mode to device only instead of high accurary.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] groovepeppy:

[Nexus 4 Android Development] WiwiPouPou:
Actually it seems UberTC could be the culprit according to reports on slim gapps and slim builders threads.

Ezio (I think) switch his ROM to stock toolchain and gapps are fine.. ?

just a bit off topic question but i was wondering how many of you are using xposed on this rom and how is it working so far? i have never used xposed before but i'm thinking about giving it a try but wanted to get some feedback from persons on this rom before i take the dive into it since i'm a bit stressed for time and doing a clean flash and setting up back all my apps if something goes wrong would be very time consuming
[Nexus 4 Android Development] panos_ts:
Hello everyone!

A few days ago, and after using another phone for almost a year, I started flashing ROMs on my N4 once again! Many thanks to the community and the developers for what you have offered!

I must say, that Chroma ROM is the one I immediately loved.

I have faced no FC's as lots of other members have reported, but I have another (also reported) problem. Google Chrome stops responding and needs to be stopped and restarted in order to operate normally. Has there been any fix for this problem, cause to be honest, I haven't faced it in any other ROM.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] arffrhn:
I am not using xposed myself but you should make a habit of doing a nandroid backup before trying anything that may or may not cause problem on your phone (such as xposed). Thus, you don't need to be setting it from scratch. Just restore in recovery and you are good to go.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] d3xt3r:
[MENTION=1978554]zephiK[/MENTION] can you please look into this. Secure notifications are always colored like this in all the themes. But in others the take the theme of the layer applied. According to the theme developer it's ROM sided.

oh i do. believe me i do every time i make any kind of big change but i have two kinda problems with that. since i have the 8GB nexus 4 with only 5.something of it usable i sometimes have to connect my pc to a computer, move stuff off the phone storage just to make room for a nandroid back and then when its all done, connect back to the pc, delete the backup that is no longer need and then move back the suff i took off.

apart from that i have had the misfortune of having the nandroid backup got corrupted before i could do a restore and this has happened to me three times in the pass so i made a habit of only doing big changes when i have the time to go a clean install if stuff goes wrong. i'm a very unlucky person
