Hey I installed this and keep getting the notification for the November OTA, it should fail if I try to accept it right?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] stevew84:
I'm using chainfires boot, the new twrp 2.7.0.1 and the Mylo kernel and all is well.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] GollyJer:
Can't wait for the next update. I didn't realize how much I like the back button on the right side of the navigation until I spent the last two days with it on the left.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
I have installed it on v2.0.0 of my ROM and it booted perfectly. I will hopefully be releasing it tomorrow or Saturday. ROM is nearly finished and all I have left to do now is update all the apps to latest versions!

Funny, personally I can't stand it at all! Just cant get used to it. So with Aroma installer, you will be able to choose if you want to have it or not :D
[Nexus 6P Android Development] zosimov21:
[MENTION=2746542]Stephen[/MENTION] Not sure if you saw this but most custom ROM will not allow you to take OTA. Considering Google is going to push out updates monthly updates for the next two years how would you recommend getting security patches? Not sure if it is even possible without rebuilding the ROM every so often. Thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
I am currently thinking about how I want to go about doing that. As long as it is once a month, I dont mind updating the ROM. It is quite easy to do. What I would really like to do is get the OTA, extract it and convert it into a flashable zip for you guys to simply install on top of the base ROM, with my modifications. Two ways I have thought of in doing this.

Stock OTA will not install because the file system is different and you will probably have TWRP. If I remember correctly, OTA will only install on stock 100% rom and stock recovery

1: figure out if it is possible to extract the OTA and create the flash-able zip

2: install ota on my phone. Use TWRP to create a system.img then extract the image and compare it against previous rom, then make up a smaller manual OTA that is flash-able so you guys dont have to install a full ROM each time.

I would prefer method 1 as it is more reliable that method 2. For method two. I would install stock ROM on my phone, create the system.img then use a program I have to compare the contents of the two ROMS.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] zosimov21:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but on my other devices, the OTA will download to the device but will not install since TWRP is installed. People on the M7 thread have pulled that out of the cache folder and given it to the dev who does as #1 suggests. Just thinking about less work for the devs considering for 2 years worth of patches coming down the pipe. :laugh:

Thanks for your help.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
Yes definitely #1 is preferable option for both me and users as there will be less for me to upload and less for users to download! Just have to work out how to extract it. I know it can be done, but just haven't looked into it yet!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] FuMMoD:
Just an update the new elementalX works with this rom. ElementalX_0.0.2Alpha
[Nexus 6P Android Development] TopazAaron:
Been running it since last night with no issues what so ever.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] effraie:
I got a notification from Google for an OTA. Of course I will not apply it, but I can't get read of the notification. Only cosmetic, but annoying
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sfreemanoh:
Flashed earlier this afternoon, and after restoring everything from TiBu, I'm fully up and running. Thanks dude!

One question though...and this may be a Nova Launcher thing (I'm certain it's not a ROM thing, but I'm not certain if it's Nova or Marshmallow), but when I double-tap the screen or swipe down (which I have setup in Nova to bring up the quick settings, and notification, respectively) it comes down SLOWLY. Has anyone else seen this behavior?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] doron07:
Seems to be a marshmallow issue, same is happening with Action Launcher 3 (unless Nova and AL3 share code).
[Nexus 6P Android Development] MiNoOo:
really appreciate what you are doing mate.

looking for the new update.

just one thing to mention, I was moving between the stock rom and this one and sometimes I get and error at the very first boot says "something wrong with the device system. contact your manufacturer". This is caused in case the system version and vendor image version are different. just make sure to extract the vendor.img file from the stock rom that has the same build number.

this should be flashed in bootloader through fastboot tool using the below command:

fastboot flash vendor (vendor file name.img) typically => fastboot flash vendor vendor.img

good luck all ..

Hi Stephen,

Was nearly ready to flash v1.0.0 but will wait a bit for v2.0.0 as I will likely appreciate tha Aroma installer and latest apps .

Look forward to it, thanks.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] krabman:
I've been checking fairly often myself, hate having back on the left. Actually I prefer a four button nav setup (with back still on the right of course) but for now it's a good start.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Tanged:
Can we use this ROM with encryption?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] galaxys:
Yes
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
Yup got that fixed in version 2.0. The rom will now wipe both the system partition and vendor partitions during install and install everything needed! One stop flash ROM :D Just they way I like it. :D

Hoping for a release tomorrow! Decided to take last night off and didn't even turn my PC on!!! I have spent a number of hours coding this week, porting all the MODS from my N6ShamuM rom across to this one. Should defiantly be out sometime tomorrow :D
[Nexus 6P Android Development] FuMMoD:
Glad to see such great progress! Looking forward to your next release :D. Knowing my luck you'll release it while im at work haha
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Born<ICs:
Root?

Stephen

could you explain the logic of having supersu root baked into your rom?

Thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
NEW ROM IS OUT!

Sorry it has taken me so long to get the ROM released, but this has been redone from ground up. I have ported some of my mods from my N6ShamuM rom accross! I think you are really going to enjoy this! :

Change Log

Version 2.0.0 - 6/11/2015

New base MDB08M odexed

Aroma installer added! Now you can choose what apps and mods to install during setup! De-bloat it how you want to :D

Added following mods!

Centre clock

Swap NAV bar buttons

Swap NAV bar buttons and centre clock

Added vendor image to rom

Updated all apps to latest versions

Dirty flash should be fine. To be safe do a backup first. Let me know if there are any problems! I have really really tested this rom, should be good to go!

Download link as usual in post #4
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chubby65:
That was quick mate:)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
Most custom roms will have this included. Now that I have Aroma installer working, what I will look into is give you the option if you want it installed or not. That will be in the next version.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Mikey:
Actually post 3 hehehe ;)

Downloading now
[Nexus 6P Android Development] uodii:
Any chance of having the option between regular supersu, systemless supersu, and none...or would that be too difficult because of what's involved with making it work?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Mauijpm:
Thanks for the ROM! Is it ok to flash this over rooted stock MDBO8K?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
I can look into it, but I dont think there is much need for system-less root as you need to be 100% stock to receive updates. With custom ROM's they tend to get changed so, the OTA wouldn't install.

Yes should be fine, I just recommend taking a backup first.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jeebuspwnz:
woohoo! Thanks! 2.0.0 ROM working great thus far.

---------- Post added at 12:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:13 PM ----------

quick question, when you say "encryption disabled by default" is that on the userdata only?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tcat007:
Just flashed, all went well. Real odd thing though, I "factory reset" AND wiped caches, system and data. Once booted and auto installed titanium, all my previous layers and wallpaper are still intact. Never had anything come back after a full wipe (other than the few system restored apps).

Edit, also after looking at what is installed, I have News/weather, Slides, Sheets, and Play Books, thaht I "thought" I did not select in Aroma. I did not previously have them installed. Are they part of your core ROM?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] pro4ever:
Gonna try it now on back up on twrp what should i back up as there are loads of option which totals 9gb ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] geoff5093:
Probably a really stupid question, but I have the official 08M installed now - can I dirty flash your ROM over it?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jeebuspwnz:
I did. No issues.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Banggugyangu:
So much dev in such a short time... I've missed the Google Experience devices... Trying this out once it downloads.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Jsilver73:
Yes, I had the same thing happen with layers - full wipe but on boot even before I restored tb my previous layers were already installed. ROM is running lovely though with elemental x
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Banggugyangu:
Wow... so this is my first time using a ROM w/ aroma... this is <3
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Aridon:
Works perfectly.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] effraie:
Aroma installer is great. But, I installed swap nav bar buttons and dislike it... Any way to unswap them without reflashing?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
The kernel I offer is a stock kernel without enforced encryption. I may word that better in the feature list.

Must be something to do with titanium backup. I dont use it myself, but I think I may start to use it!

Boot, System, Vendor and data should be enough. The other image options are for people who want to make custom roms and dont have factory images like we do. They can create a system.img using twrp and then extract it. Not necessary for us as Google provide the images.

Aroma is very very awesome! I really love it. I like the fact that I can package a full rom, but the end user can then configure it and get either, full stock experience or a really lean ROM if they want!

Yes very easy. Simply dirty flash the ROM again. In aroma when you come to the mods section, dont select any of the options. It will install the stock NAV bar and clock by default. The mods replace the SystemUI.apk with a modded one depending on what you select. Dirty flash is easiest way to sort it out.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tcat007:
My layers were there before messing with titanium. Just booted to launcher with all Magpie layers running. It's like full wipe doesn't wipe something with 2.8.7.2., maybe vendor?

Not a complaint, it's awesome!

Everything running well. I thought I lost v4a, but forgot I had to remove audio_effects.conf from system/vendor/etc. Working great now!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] snobrdinrtiste:
is there an option to turn on the power menu options like reboot to recovery/bootloader/etc ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tcat007:
That would be nice, but lots of apps that will do that (without having to hit power button)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] SuperSmashedBro:
We can't use the systemless root with this, correct?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] CNDow:
I just dirty flashed 2.0 over stock rooted MBD08K and I'm getting the " "something wrong with the device system. contact your manufacturer""

Did I just answer my own question is it a dirty flash Issue?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chubby65:
Wipe everything except data and internal storage before reflashing rom
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Mikey:
I don't see why you can't..... Systemless root isn't Installed on system.... Unless aroma wipes the partition that root is on, it's all good.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] CNDow:
Nope same I'm just going to have to bite the bullet and clean flash
[Nexus 6P Android Development] snobrdinrtiste:
which app is that?

Also, I just Clean flashed the new 2.0 version... after it started up, i got a message saying to that there was an error with my internal system ... or something like that...

did anyone get that message? i thought it might be because encryption is off ??
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mccurt29:
this is my 1st phone without a sd card so flashing is a lil confusing now. my question is there anyway to not have my files like pic, documents etc.. not wiped when we do data factory reset to install the new rom.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chubby65:
That's all I did to get shut off the message
[Nexus 6P Android Development] adrman:
Try SimpleReboot by Franco
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tcat007:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.petrus.tools.reboot

I get that message every boot, it's an M thing.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] exo8:
Anyone know why my icons are showing over the ATT logo on the lock screen? I didn't have this problem on stock.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] dsmitty166:
Yeah just don't format userdata and you will be fine.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] CNDow:
I had to flash vendor_MBD08M.img with fastboot to get rid of it even a clean flash didn't do it
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tcat007:
What's in vendor IMG? Will I lose anything? And isn't that image in the latest?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chubby65:
I only got it on first 2 reboots disappeared after reflashing
[Nexus 6P Android Development] CNDow:
it's just getting the system version and vendor image version with the same build number. it's on [MENTION=1363323]vomer[/MENTION] 's ROM download page

no wipes no loss
[Nexus 6P Android Development] brar.arsh:
Can anyone please tell me the installation instructions.

Am on stock rooted with latest TWRP
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
Download rom.

Go into TWRP.

Wipe dalvik, cache, system,.and data.

Reboot.

Win :)

---------- Post added at 08:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:33 PM ----------

Oh yea, and flash the rom after you wipe. Then wipe dalvik and cache after you flash. Sorry....my bad :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tcat007:
So the correct Vendor IMG isn't in the ROM? Can the img be flashed with TWRP?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] exo8:
any ideas what could be causing this?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] SuperSmashedBro:
Right but then you'll have both the system root and systemless root installed and that'll cause issues
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tcat007:
Anyone getting a pop up "security error (user may not have permission to access this feature)"? Just started in XDA after flashing this ROM. I doubt if the ROM is doing it, maybe XDA is having issues?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Deadlights:
Running awesome man! Installed Elemental on top to test, and still running amazing. Thanks for your hard work man!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DrexelDragon:
Do I need to fully wipe if upgrading from a previous Pangler ROM?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] afdals:

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Mikey:

[Nexus 6P Android Development] micmars:
None here, but Gmail gets tossed into system, not system app where it belongs...just an FYI.

#WhiteUIsMustDie, #EndDarkAppOppression
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
That is very odd you are getting Vendor image issues. I included the vendor in the ROM so you shouldn't have to flash it again. I will look into that!

EDIT: I have definitely included the correct Vendor image version in the ROM. Here is the line taken from the vendor build.prop:

ro.vendor.build.fingerprint=google/angler/angler:6.0/MDB08M/2353240:user/release-keys

Again I would suggest a full wipe and dont restore any data, check the ROM over and see if the issues persist. I cant replicate the errors here.

No FC's here at all did you restore data from titanium backup? If you did that may be causing the issues. Setup the ROM on its on with out restoring and see if you get the same errors,

My bad, that will be fixed in the next update. For now you can just move it into system/app folder and set the permissions! Cheers for pointing that out.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] boosting1bar:
First installation attempt hung at 40% and I had to reboot, rewipe and try again. No issues the second time with no FCs now that I'm up and running. Flashed flar's kennel as well and everything is smooth as butta! Thanks for the awesome work, dev
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Nekromantik:
Would it be possible to release a systemless root version of this?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] johnp357:
Android Pay

Anyone know if there is a fix for this on this ROM? What's posted about changing SU doesn't work.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] boosting1bar:
I'm getting that on the lock screen as well with notifications
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
That is an issue sometimes with Aroma. It does happen once in a blue moon, but a simply dirty flash the second time should sort it. I have installed the ROM multiple times on my device to test it.

Not sure TBH. Never seen that before.

Need to work out exactly how to do that. Is it just the kernel needs flashed, or do you need to flash the suerpsu app as well.

I am working on version 2.1.0 now and is currently uploading. You can expect to see the following updates:

v2.1.0

Tweaked Aroma installer

Re-worked vendor install from scratch

Fixed gmail app not installing correctly

Added option in aroma installer so you can select whether to root or not

Added option in aroma installer so you can select whether to move SuperSU app into settings menu or leave it in app drawer!

Uploading now, will be out soon :D
[Nexus 6P Android Development] lucky_strike33:
Flash rom then flash boot.img then kernel?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tdamocles:
Noticed if you change nav bar button position it doesn't follow in landscape.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
I'll see if I can have a look for the next update! Should be do able. I need to work on my N6ShamuM rom now and get it up to date as well :D
[Nexus 6P Android Development] markwebb:
Great rom but camera force closes on me for some reason. I then tried extracting it from the zip and still no go. What do I need to do to get it back? Thanks!!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
Yes I have just been able to re-produce the error. Very odd. I will need to work on that now. Release of 2.1.0 will be delayed until I get it fixed.

Ok so I flashed the vendor image manually and camera worked. So it looks like a permissions issue. Ok going to change my thinking here on how I install the vendor image. Currently I have it extracted from the vendor image and have it as a folder then use package extract vendor /vendor. I am wondering and it would be a lot easier, if I could get aroma to simply install the vendor.img. That way all permissions etc would be 100% Plus less work for me as I would have less extracting to do!

EDIT: Thought number 2! Just realised all I need to do is use the method I am currently using to extract the kernel (boot.img) to extract the vendor.img. Testing now!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] wizardfingers:
Is it possible to use ElementalX kernel with your ROM atm?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
Yes no issues I was using it yesterday
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Mikey:
As for my Google Play FC.....data wipe cleared it up....I hope i dont need to data wipe every update:)

Thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
I am beginning to think that it is due to the fact that permissions arn't set correctly on the vendor folder. I am getting FC's on the camera as well. All I did to fix it, is flash the vendor.img file after I flashed the ROM. I am currently looking into seeing if aroma can extract the vendor.img file directly, a bit like extracting the boot.img for the kenrel. If I was able to do that, it would save a lot of messing around with the vendor image.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] micmars:
Nice list, looking forward to it...and as you previously noted, moving Gmail to its rightful place took all of 5 seconds, it's still nice to see these improvements.

A couple of other items I noticed last night, just sort of an FYI list...hopefully this is of some use...

I note that certain apps appear to be only in the data partition...for those whom use themed and theme ready variants of these, this is a tad challenging, inasmuch as the themed or themable variants must reside in system for them to function function...I note that Google Keep and Google Plus were amongst this list. To change this is a simple matter of uninstalling the data app and installing the themed counterpart.

If anyone has had issue installing Layers on this, I'm running it with zero issues...I simply created the folder system, vendor, overlays (permissions rw, rw, rw) and pushed the same clutch of layers that I had on my Shamu.

Thanks for the stable rom...runs well and seems like you're off to a terrific start.

Happy Saturday, everyone!

SuperSU ?

.

I found that SuperSU grants low-level privileges to apps, is closed-source and can't be audited. Have you looked into root using an open-source like Superuser?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Banggugyangu:
Seeing as how this is my first phone w/ aroma capabilities, forgive my ignorance, but would aroma allow selecting of kernel to be installed as well? If so, would be nice to see the ROM devs collaborating with the kernel devs to provide options without multiple downloads.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] micmars:
Of course it will, that's the beauty of Aroma...and the power to do so resides with the respective devs.

I agree, it would be a nice feature.

I believe that [MENTION=2455860]VECTUS[/MENTION] had this with his roms for Shamu.

Will someone with the technical skills and knowledge look into how we can extend the default 15 seconds HDR recording time on the gear 2.

Many thanks.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xperia_88:
I am using Stock Kernel and CM 12.1 on my Oneplus One.

I just want to use the "Titanium Backup" app

(that running on Root device only). What exactly I need to do with my phone: ???

Just Unlock my Bootloader and run SuperSU ?

Can I still be able to use Rom OTA with the Unlock Bootloader ? :confused:

Thanks!
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ohussain:
Too late for Titanium backup now!

Please read this guide very carefully. It covers everything you need to know: [GUIDE] Unlock/Root/Flash for OnePlus One

To answer your question briefly, in order to use Titanium Backup, you need a rooted device.

To root your device you need:

unlocked bootloader

custom recovery (i.e. TWRP )

When you unlock your bootloader, you will lose all your data - your phone will be wiped!

Long story short, it is now too late for you to use Titanium backup to backup your apps & data.

Please note that there are methods to backup your apps which do not require root access, but you will have to use adb & the command line - not for everyone, and not what you had in mind I imagine.

You might just want to make a list of your favourite apps, backup their data & settings as much as you can, and then once you've got some sort of backup done, proceed to unlock your bootloader (and wipe your device), install TWRP, gain root, and profit. :)

Once again: Please read this guide very carefully. It covers everything you need to know: [GUIDE] Unlock/Root/Flash for OnePlus One
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xperia_88:
First thanks for your answer! Do I lose the rom OTA Update after unlock my bootloader and install TWRP ? Do I must change to the TWRP recover or I can use the stock one?
