question 3 answer...

For question 3....

Yes, it is safe.

I use 17th version of this rom as distributed and... Viper4A, permissive.zip and modified exchange zip to bypass remote erase.

I am running textdroid set to 440. no issues, and none of the other "bugs" i have been reading about on here. I have to say im afraid to even update to 20th version since my phone is so stable right now and battery lasts 2 full workdays without charge.

I consider myself lucky base on what people have been posting about here.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rignfool:
1. I dunno

2. In AROMA during install... Remove the cataclysm shortcut or cataclysm settings in advanced install... It'll stay in the settings app

3. Sure... Why not... Or you could edit the build.prop with your favorite file explorer too

I'm on Chroma at the moment it's only been few days. it's good, stable but didn't wow me yet. Was wondering how you guys enjoying this? anyone switched from Chroma and loving this one? How's the battery life? One thing I'd love is double tap to wake/sleep. do you have that?

Cheers
[Nexus 6 Android Development] appro77:
Not sure if this is a rom issue or not. When I answer a call there's a slight delay of a few seconds before the caller can hear me. Anyone else experiencing this?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] andrewhahalee:
Hi, I've had a few games installed at the moment. Town Maker, Music Hero, Let's Farm.

Tested on stock kernel that came with Cataclysm to see is it ROM related or kernel related - no stutter.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rignfool:
It seems to be a side effect of proximity speaker phone...

I've noticed it on all builds using slims implementation... So when I found it here... I just shrugged it off...

Try turning off 'speakerphone follows proximity sensor'
[Nexus 6 Android Development] appro77:
Thanks. It's not a big deal. I just need to remember it happens. Do you mean "Speaker follows proximity in call" in Cataclysm/Miscellaneous? That's turned off on my phone.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] suku_patel_22:
Should compare ROM's, just flash them and check for yourself. People int his thread will say Cataclysm is better nsd vice versa.

It's always a preference thing, but as someone who ran nothing but Chroma for months, switched to Benzo for awhile, tried EOS, ran Dirty Unicorns a month, and then stuck to Pure and xTraSmooth before finding my way to Cata..... I haven't had an experience near as good. Sound mods seem to work and sound better, battery life is killer (which is a must for me as much as I use this thing every day), and it's smooth as a baby's bottom. I kind of think [MENTION=3913401]atl4ntis[/MENTION] is lying to us about building blind and secretly has an N6 lying around he hasn't told us about because this is too good to be true ???

[MENTION=1277872]dankoman[/MENTION] is a GApps dev who has been working on this for a long time. He knows these matters from the inside out. In that post he's talking about multi-dpi apps and build.prop editing under Marshmallow.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] yudumcan:
mate looks like you pretty much tried everything out there. I might give Chroma another week and try Catac... My other question is the kernels.. How do they work does these Roms run separate kernels and do we need to flash our own to get a better build?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] blueren:
Me. I was on chroma for N6, cataclysm during the days I had a N5. If you're not a big fan of having a ton of options that you *May* never use, then for you, it might not matter. The battery life is purely based on what apps you have or how you use your phone. I've not found too much of a diff when it comes to Batt life. Although, I did find chroma to be smoother (Could be kernel related -touchboost etc etc, haven't dug through yet.)

tl;dr - Take nandroid backup, flash whatever you want, try. You're the best judge.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
Most ROMs have their own customized kernels that will run well right out of the box (this ROM has a mostly, if not purely, stock kernel but Chroma runs a modified Hells Core), you don't have to get a custom one to have a good experience. However, you are always free to experiment with custom kernels and find one you like if you are satisfied with a built in kernel. That is the great thing about kernels: they are easy to change and are purely based on personal preference. There is no such thing as a best kernel, it is all up to what works for you.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Shilalygawd:
I get better battery life with despair than anything else on Marshmallow. ElementalX has never played well with my phone, and Hells always eats through my battery although it's much less draining when I run it on Cata. I've gotten my best experiences with this device on Cata with Despair kernel. I'm currently on r31.3 but I think the latest is r32.

Like someone said above, battery life will vary greatly according to how you use your phone, apps, kernel config, etc, but as a power user and overclocker I average close to 24 hours per charge.

Nope, that's not it. That feature is disabled on my phone and when I accept a call, another 1-2 seconds have to pass before the UI changes into the "in-call" one, you know. Just like on Lollipop :(

seeder problem

Is there some workaround to enable seeder on this rom? on rooted stock and chroma it worked just fine, here I have this kind of error, despite granting the su rights (other su-needing apps work just fine). Apart from that, great rom!

Cheers
[Nexus 6 Android Development] cink40:
1) why you use seeder? Is just placebo IMO

2) probably you need selinux set to permissive (use other kernel or change it with an app

Have you done this on this ROM, I did that on a different MM ROM and it didn't work. I think that's for LP ROMs. When I get some free time I will check it out and read it again.

It does say it's for rasta ROM or stock 5.01, i have not had the time to look at the actual code and compare too Cat/Stock MM. But i will soon and keep you guys posted.

Also am i a dumb ass? Where/Is there a screenshot option/gesture.

It was built for the 20 October 2015 beta version of this rom at my request/my-being-a-pain by Recognized Themer and Forum Specific Moderator [MENTION=4603975]daveyannihilation[/MENTION].

Yes, it works, but you must flash the one in the post number that was linked by [MENTION=5964313]wrongway213[/MENTION].

#WhiteUIsMustDie, #EndDarkAppOppression
[Nexus 6 Android Development] xxxtncxxx:
I have had the same issue, but on another ROM and is usually solved by a wipe and reinstall. We know that its not an actual bug in the ROM zips, do that should solve your issues. Backup your stuff, wipe it all out, flash first Cat MM ROM zip, then the update zip.

If you are using TiBu (or something similar) DO NOT restore system data, some times it works some times it doesn't, but chances are its going to mess something up. As far as user apps they should be relatively safe to restore app and data, even then I only restore apps/data when it is a must (like with Authenticator), and i just restore app only. It's just safer, as far as keeping the integrity of the ROM intact. People will say, you don't have to...... it's safe..... and again most of the time it is true but I find it much easier just to avoid the possibility of screwing something. These are just my opinions and practices.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] RayMcGrath:
Try this aosp browser. It worked for me from a restore.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
thanks for the info, i eneded up dirty flashing 17 then updating 20 and cleaned cache. first hour the whole rom was laggy but it settled down later. i also flashed Franco's kernel for good measures.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Formhault:
I'm using Color Control (that app made by [MENTION=4316709]savoca[/MENTION] which saved us, the poor Nexus 6 users that are cursed with a yellow screen & whatnot), and although "Set on Boot" is enabled, the app does not do its thing at boot. I have to start it up and press the "Restore" button myself.

I'm not complaining or anything, just wondering if that's on the app dev's side to fix, or there may be something borked with the service (whatever that service would be) that allows apps to do things at boot? Besides Kernel Adiutor, of course... cause that seems to work just fine. :confused:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] xxxtncxxx:
You really should start from a clean state, doesn't make sense not too your just asking for trouble. This ROM is very stable and ran great on stock kernel, just flashing a new kernel is not going to solve any issues that may be ongoing because of corrupt SYSTEM. I also run the latest franco kernel, but i did that only after a few days of running the ROM as is to make sure everything was good. Then I moved ahead with editing/customizing rom/kernel and whatnot. It is just good practice to start clean and will often prevent a headache down the road.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] micmars:
No, it doesn't.

The 17 October build has a different SystemUI.apk, and thus you'll need the modified one that goes with that build.

Check in that thread to find the version that is made for Cataclysm 17 October 2015 build.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] Formhault:
Actually, it did work! :confused:

I went on to flash it and edited my post afterwards. Now, I have another question, lol... :D
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wrongway213:
That's on the app end it seems, all I've spoken to are having issues with it and have to "restore", or more useful for most, they restore once and then get the values from their restore and then open their kernel control app and save the values in there and set them to apply on boot. My KCAL values apply on boot just fine, but from Synapse - interestingly, though, if you open my Color Control app it displays all the correct values from Synapse, provided Synapse sets them on boot and not the Color Control app itself.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] an21281:
Thank you for posting this! Great job with the rom OP
[Nexus 6 Android Development] blueren:
Thanks! I'm one of those rare people who likes default GEL for it's google now integration ;)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Formhault:
I guess I won't be changing the color profile anytime, so I might just as well jump ship to Synapse (again) and deal with that from there.

By the way, the color scheme I'm using makes it look more like the iPhone 6's IPS - I recall you were the guy who told me that? I just noticed : it also sort of dims it... compared to stock, at least, which is like a freaking egg yolk :silly:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wrongway213:
Yes, the 7500 cool color profile is as identical as possible to the stock iPhone display settings.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
If I am on stock kernel with this rom, what app can I use to make my nexus that color profile? Been dying to fix this!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Formhault:
Yep. Which is awesome! The stock color profile is absolutely crap.

---------- Post added at 08:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:11 PM ----------

Check these profiles out. You can apply those in apps like [MENTION=4316709]savoca[/MENTION]'s app or Synapse (under the SCREEN tab, IIRC).
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wrongway213:
Stock kernel does not allow KCAL color control, you will have to find a kernel that does and then you can use Kernel Adiutor or Synapse to control KCAL values, along with other kernel variables. I may have a link to a stock kernel with KCAL color control, but I dunno if it's for MM or LP - if I am able to find it for MM I'll edit post in a minute with link. If you prefer a custom kernel, I recommend trying Elite, for what it's worth.

Edit: http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/development/kernel-stock-kernel-root-color-control-t3218958 Stock kernel with root, r/w permissions, KCAL color control and sound control added in case you do not want to use a custom kernel.

Yes!!! Will look into now! Thanks a ton!

Also, can you take a look real quick. If my data is NOT encrypted, I use the second zip correct? (I'm only asking bc the first one says stock after it and second doesn't)

Volume Slider Bug

Hello all,

Using Cataclysm October 20th update and hellscore b9-M. Clean installed the latest release of Cataclysm then installed the October 20th small update. Volume slider does not go away after 20 seconds from adjusting volume in any application. I tried this on my friends Nexus 6 as well who also uses Cataclysm and he does not have this issue. Is there a setting to adjust this?

This post by [MENTION=2687578]wrinklefree[/MENTION] has the most in depth(he used a calibration tool) look at color profiles.

Totally forgot about that... THAT's the profile I set - the cool one.

But keep in mind... not all screens are the same. Mine, for example, is more on the yellow side, compared to a display unit (which there aren't many of in my country, by the way), so... YMMV.

I've experienced a bizzare thing today... I was in the subway, having a chat on Hangouts, when all the sudden my phone shut off. I've realised it's not just randomly rebooting after 5 seconds have passed with no Google logo in sight. Holding down the power button for 3 seconds initiated the boot up procedure, so... it was a sudden shut down indeed.

I've grabbed the logs - they are attached to this post.

I'm running the Oct 17 build (did not flash the Oct 20 delta update just yet, but will do so very soon). Latest Elite kernel, with no modifications (aside from the vibration strenght & color profile).

Other than that... no other problems experienced so far (24 hours since I've left Lolli land).

I wouldn't be suggest posting that log in the Elite Kernel thread...it'll be far more useful there than here.

What was your battery percent...

Do you use the battery saver feature...

What was it set at...

Had it been triggered...

That sounds to me like some throttling went berserk
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Formhault:
Battery was at about 35%. No battery saving features on afaik, also no battery saving apps or stuff like that. It's literally the same apps I've been using on Lollipop for a long time, so...

I don't think it was throttling. The device was barely warm. I was doing what I usually do when I'm on the subway : browse Tapatalk / chat on WhatsApp or Hangouts, browse Facebook... and this never happened to me, EVER.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mantakos:
This happened to mo too. Today with benzocore m3 and two days before with despair kernel r32. I was at aproximately 15% battery. But as far as i know it sometimes shuts down below 7ish percent. So I would assume that there is a rom side issue since it happens on 3 different kernels so far. On stock cataclysm kernel it doesnt happen tho
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rignfool:
Now... I may be full of crap... But... There is a BCL throttling that takes place when your phone thinks that the battery voltage is screwy for whatever reason...

Don't know if Elite has it or not... I know hellscore has it disabled...

Maybe you needed that throttling and it wasn't there... Or maybe it triggered a shutdown to save your battery... No idea...

Oh... Also... Elite uses the battery learning commit that most kernel devs have removed due to bad battery readings...
[Nexus 6 Android Development] arcane spade:
Noticed the feature "speaker follows proximity in call" does not start on answering inbound calls. Works great once placed to my ear and removed or on outbound calls.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] rignfool:

[Nexus 6 Android Development] rignfool:

Throttling is for the racetrack
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Formhault:

[Nexus 6 Android Development] rignfool:
OK... I know you don't speak English as a first language... Sooo...

There are many reasons to have your phone throttle... And many ways in which your phone does throttle...

I never once mentioned thermal as the cause... I am referring to a Battery Current throttle... Meaning for some reason... The voltage your battery was capable of producing was not normal... So your phone dials itself back to avoid damaging... Whatever it is that can be damaged?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] glenny buster:
Its not the ROM that's making your phone shut off. I been running this for a week with zero issues using the stock kernel. No reboots or shut downs and battery life is excellent.

Gmail, Facebook, Instagram, Tapatalk, weather and blinkfeed always syncing. Brightness around 80% with adaptive on. Data, WiFi and GPS (battery saving) always on. 2.6/300, interactive, 3rd and 4th cores offline, 600mhz gpu. Everything still running smooth as ever.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Formhault:
My English is juuuuuust fine, don't worry about that :)

I am used to hearing the term "throttling" ONLY in the context of thermal throttling. I have never ever heard about the battery thing you talk about, so of course, I thought you're refering to the thermal issue :)

So... that is a sign that my phone is slowly decaying or what?!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wrongway213:
Sorry, quoted wrong post man. I was referring to the battery learning commit. I thought it had been merged back by most major kernel devs sine the M bringup, or has it been reverted?
