that has nothing to do with developer options being on, but.. you can turn off your animations in the developer options, i do.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Milleniumlance:
i did try, it turns right back on, and any changes dont stick, i may just have to a reset

I did a fresh install....

A fresh install on June 29th 2015

And been DIRTY even since!

Backup, Wipe system, Davlic & Cache... X3, install ROM and I always add the GAPPS to the install, reboot to OS... it always boots up perfectly... and then after it's been running for a while another reboot.

I don't know about anybody else but... it has almost been a whole year now of SWEET Beanstown perfection.

CHEERS to the Man!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] simms22:
odd!

ive never experienced that issue on a nexus, but my sgs4 does the same thing, and theres nothing that i can do about it :(
[Nexus 6 Android Development] christianpeso:
I thought there was an initial issue with Banks Gapps, therefore a problem with Pure Nexus Gapps. I believe Banks fixed it on his side, but I dont know if the Pure Nexus Gapps was udpated with the newer version of Banks.

I would try the latest version of Banks Gapps or try Open Gapps.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Your mistakes?

You used a toolkit. If you're going to root, at least take the time to learn how to use ADB and Fastboot before you resort to a toolkit.

You rooted prior to installing Pure Nexus. That isn't necessary as the ROM is pre-rooted.

You didn't wipe the system prior to flashing the new ROM, which is why you're getting force closes.

This is how I install Pure Nexus with every update, and to this point I have not had issues with Google apps force closing.

Enter TWRP.

Tap "Wipe".

Tap "Advanced Wipe".

Select "System".

Swipe to wipe.

Return to the root menu.

Tap "Install".

Select the Pure Nexus zip.

Tap "Add More Zips".

Select the Pure Nexus Dynamic GApps zip.

Swipe to flash.

Reboot System.

You'll notice that I never mentioned wiping Dalvik and the cache. While it's easy enough to do in the Advanced Wipe screen, and is something I do myself out of habit, it really isn't necessary.

Pure Nexus Dynamic GApps doesn't have the issue present in Banks GApps. The problem here is in how [MENTION=7399899]TheCoryGuy[/MENTION] is flashing the ROM, not the zips themselves.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] galaara98:
1. I'm not sure I'd list that as a mistake.. You kinda sinning a thing that is "a maturity level" not 'wrong vs. right'

2. Again, I'm not arguing with the whole of your thoughts, but sinning someone for unnecessary repetitive actions is a bit harsh... I don't think it breaks the process if they do this, it just wastes time

3. This is most likely the action that caused the trouble. The concepts and steps of wipe, flash, dirty, clean, cache, system, data, internal, external has been so overwhelmingly convoluted that many cannot get correct and true instructions because of the 50 conflicting opinions a simple search will grab them.

If you are one of the "flash newbies" or "flash not that new, but damn the rules keep changing" may I suggest the writeups by [MENTION=6842057]nathanchance[/MENTION] found in links in the first few posts of this forum. This user has both enough technical skill to be trustworthy and writing skills to be understandable.

If you find a topic that everyone seems to have a problem with, but no one you can trust has written a good writeup for, consider sending a PM to your favorite technical writer humbly asking them if they would oblige you. Maybe they don't have time, but it would be a token of honor that you asked them... In a format where they could privately explain if they can't.

1: Someone who is new to rooting should not be using a toolkit to root their device, plain and simple. Therefore, it is a mistake, especially if they don't know how to fix a problem because they couldn't be bothered to learn a few simple commands. I don't agree however that it points to a lack of maturity. It points to laziness.

2: Noted. If he wants to waste his time rooting before installing a pre-rooted ROM, that's his business. I dispute however that I was being harsh. Matter of fact is more accurate.

3: How he installed the ROM was the source of his issue. I'll have to look back and check, but I do believe Beans did provide flashing instructions in his opening posts. So any convoluted steps picked up in the flashing process are due to either lack of reading the original post in the thread, or information overload.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] S0UTHPAWK1LLA:
This guy.. What proof is there to support this comment? CM has been and is still an amazing branch of Android that has brought more new features and innovations than any other ROM.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] galaara98:
In my opinion...this is just your Opinion.

I don't believe I have seen, nor do I believe it exists compelling statistics showing that users of tool kits have % more problems or % more risk to themselves than users who follow instructions using command line tools. Rooting with a tool kit is not a direct indication of technological incompetence, and is similar to reading a set of step by step instructions, even from the OP, when the user doesn't know what the instructions do.

Most flasher's have no ideas what the recovery partition truly is, what a kernel actually does, where on the storage the radio firmware is, whats the difference between an opened bootloader allowing a rooted ROM and a vulnerable bootloader allowing a rooted ROM, etc., etc.. They just follow a procedure and boom, they can customize more than those that allow vendors to control their phones Operating System and UI.

Since in general the average flasher cannot make a knowledgeable decision, there is no practical change in RISK to when they use a tool kit, compare to when they blindly follow instructions (since in both cases they have no idea what is truly happening, and will return to the toolkit/instruction owner for advice)

But hey, that's my opinion

Really this argument of ours is just a fancier way of saying the same old and tiring statement to ALL flashers: Read...everything.

Manipulating a sophisticated Android based computer with a "mobile radio" and voice input and outputs without a decent understanding of what your working with, what configurations exist, and how you would like it configured is like rebuilding your car from a YouTube video... And hoping that weird puff of smoke every left turn isn't permanent, why things you say while in the car are posted to every social media, and wondering why the police are saying its not legal? Things you should have understood before messing with it.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] simms22:
proof? you dont need proof, all you need is some use. im not knocking CM, you just have to understand, when constantly adding new code, youll constantly have bugs. its just how that works. and CM releases roms before those bugs are actually fixed.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] veloslave:
Bloody forehead, worn out search button

I don't use fastboot... haven't for so long I wouldn't remember where to start.

How do I figure out which bootloader and radio I am on (tried the FAQ but it was all fastbooting), and, does anyone know of/where flashable versions of the latest? (or the fastbooting)

Or...

Some real decent instructions for fastbooting? I am on the latest ROM
[Nexus 6 Android Development] S0UTHPAWK1LLA:
I've been using CM since the og droid. If you use the stable instead of the nightly you rarely have issue. Add the fact that most still don't get why clean flashing a rom is the best way to go and you see how "bugs" happen
[Nexus 6 Android Development] simms22:
ive been using cm since cm just starting making g1 roms for the g1. yes, since the very beginning. i stopped running cm roms in 2012, and its just because their attitude about android changed. heck, cyanogen even personally handed me the first nexus one build before it was released.. anyways, cm stable builds have been more buggy than the nightly builds. of course, not every single stable build. but overall, nightlies have been more stable. now a days, stable builds are better, but they still usually contain bugs, no matter how stable you think it is. just because how you use your device, the bugs dont pop up, doesnt mean that they dont pop up for others. and dirty flashing does not cause "bugs".

It's no proof from my side, I don't have any saved evidence.

However, each time when I used their crappy development, I had only issues and bags on my phone.

And with any others Roms wasn't that bad at all.

I also understand that it could be me and my wrong acts but CM is absolutely unfriendly development.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] K-alz:
This ROM has zero issues. I have one issue only, one only. My data isn't stable at all. I was on another ROM and I had no problem. Flashed this bad boy yesterday and my music streaming service keeps buffering annoyingly. Never had this before on other ROMs. Is it the radio? Is anyone having the same issue or is it just me? I'm running the latest CMTE build and it is amazing beside this little issue. Thanks in advance for any insight, guys.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] EddieK23:
I recently ran into an issue on an older build where I decided to enable encryption and after rebooting my phone would not allow me to connect to any WiFi points. This gave me an excuse to wipe and update to the newest build and Gapps, but I'm worried that enabling encryption again will "brick" my WiFi connection.

EDIT:

Scratch that, even after clean flashing the newest build I'm still unable to access any WiFi points.

No.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] GuyInDogSuit:
I've had the phone reboot for no reason twice, that I know of, since flashing this latest update. Was a clean flash recommended?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] githyanki:
Update TWRP and flash again, or use a different gapps.

Encryption has nothing to do with wifi. Have you tried enabling the legacy DHCP in dev options?

ROM does not update bootloader or radio. You can try the ones from N if you want, but no updates needed.

Did it fully reboot, or soft reboot? If it was soft reboot, it's likely an app that caused it, catlog should catch it. If fully rebooted, kernel logs would be useful.

It's easy to tell if it's a full reboot if you have to enter password to boot. If it goes to lock screen without needing password, it was a soft reboot.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] D0CTOR:
You can try tuning off animations in the developer options, but I've found that the screen tearing was coming from the ElementalX kernel. If you're running EX, just change the CPU governor from elementalx to interactive.

Profit!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] RandomPooka:
A clean flash is and always has been recommended. Many of us arty dirty pigs. But, it's a sort of unwritten rule that if you dirty flash and have problems, you try a clean flash and see if the problem persists before anything else. If it keeps on, try to get logs of the problem (if possible).

[Nexus 6 Android Development] gothy.gothy:
Not once, but twice. NO CHANCE to make it work ... but it worked very good until today. Strange ....
[Nexus 6 Android Development] githyanki:
You have to go into security settings, screen lock, set a new pin/pattern (Can re-use the same one) and click the option to require it to boot.

Your phone must be encrypted also.

Having it encrypted but not requiring password to boot is kinda silly, I don't know why that's even a option. If google wanted to enforce security by requiring encryption, why did they not enforce a pin/password to remove the encryption.....
[Nexus 6 Android Development] deadcatsrule:
I see my phone is not encryptied
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Try this, it worked in my case. Go to preferences, target host files. And try each of below option

System/etc/hosts

OR

Data/data/hosts
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Jank4AU:
I just tried it and it works. I went to security (I am encrypted) > Screen lock > input my pattern to unlock choices > selected the same method (pattern) > check the radio dial for Require pattern to start device, set my new pattern.

Once it did that, I rebooted. The phone appeared to boot up, then had me put in my pattern, then rebooted again into android.

It's not spam or anything.

Hi guys,

A little explanation, please. Apart from conflicting in settings between Gravity Box and Pure Nexus, why Xposed is not recommended to be installed? Does it slows the system, or does it harm in any other way?

Thanks for any hint.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] simms22:
xposed changes things, framework and such, so its recommended to be used on stock builds only. when using on a custom rom, xposed could change certain frameworks that custom roms use and could cause issues. but maybe not.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] githyanki:
Although this has been answered many times:

It is not recommended because any issues you may have after installing exposed will not be considered. It becomes problematical for anyone to duplicate your setup and help you with your issues, and the dev (Beans) will not take your bug reports.

Basically, your on your own, and will need to remove exposed before anyone can help you.

Having said that, there are many who report that exposed works fine and they have no issues.

I have uninstalled the phone app from the gapps, to install the google play version. Needless to say, The play store app now says my device is not supported...This is the process I have gone through on other builds. All other apps are working fine. I tried getting an export of the APK's from a friend, and it works, but I get "Phone stopped working" randomly. I have also tried reflashing gapps, and I still am not getting the stock phone app gapps comes with. I know this is not a ROM bug as I brought this on myself more or less, just looking for some options other than wiping. Any ideas?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] miryclay:

Gotcha, thanks. I will give that a try.

In essence...shouldn't just reflashing gapps fix this?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
The dialer isn't part of the Pure Nexus GApps package, so flashing wouldn't fix it. I don't know about other GApps packages however.
