[Nexus 4 Android Development] Muljeb:
So, I was going to upgrade the SuperSU as you suggested and something strange happened...

I clean flashed my backup rom so I can transfer the SuperSU zip file to the phone's internal memory. Got caught again in a bootloop on my backup rom, don't know why if I properly backed up my previous rom with TWRP. Anyways..

With not a lot of options left, I decided to try one more time to clean flash the PureNexus rom and it's Gapps just to see If I got any luck. This is were it gets weird.... Flashed the PureNexus rom and the Gapps again and reboot but this time I didn't got the "SuperSU not installed. Swipe to install now" message, so I thought "yessss!". So when the system finally booted:

- There were NO Gapps.

- I couldn't access developer options. When I went to settings, it showed "Developer options not available for this user".

- I couldn't pull down the Notification Drawer. When I try to pull down, only the first part of the drawer came down and If I pulled again to get to the quick access shortcuts, it wouldn't do anything.

- There were no USB options to transfer files from the computer and there were a lot of options in the settings that simply were not there!

It looked like the system was installed half way or something, this have NEVER happened to me before :eek:

So, scratching my head, I went ahead and tried clean flashing the PureNexus rom by itself without the Gapps and that worked. Everything looked normal and had all the USB options with the exception of the Gapps (duh lol). So I managed to transfer the Gapps from OpenGApps to the phone and clean flash the rom and the gapps in one shot and everything is normal now! :laugh:

What do you think may have been the problem? Was it something that I missed?

I'm technically new to Android customization, although, been reading for a good year or so, but still learning.

Sorry for my poor English, as is not my native tongue. Thanks for the help.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Weird. No idea what could've caused this behaviour. The only thing I can think of is a corrupt zip that you flashed.

I never backup anything in twrp. I use Titanium Backup Pro and I backup all the apps with it. It's simple and this way I can easily wipe everything clean, flash a ROM and then restore everything I choose to restore. Easy and practical.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] blackbuffalo:
Will take my time to build a new build today or later today!

FYI:

I still use AK kernel for new build. I planed use DU kernel for MAKO but finally I decided use AK kernel as default. Everyone can choose for yourself a better kernel
[Nexus 4 Android Development] kryzeK:
Pause downloads too? Like the build of other guy on g+ community
[Nexus 4 Android Development] blackbuffalo:
I dont add additions feature to my build. I want keep it close to source, stability and easy for get support from G+ group

You can try another build from G+ communicate, it will not included in my build if you cant find it in changelogs

On the way :D

PS: I managed build DU, BrokenOS (M8) and PureNexus (N4)

So I dont have time to check in github, if you want feature, can send me a messages with link to feature you want have in my build, I will try to add to my build if OK
[Nexus 4 Android Development] kryzeK:
Ok, I had not thought of it that way. I now really agree with you, it is best keep the build more clean possible to report bugs
[Nexus 4 Android Development] blackbuffalo:
Done with Layers build for now

This build still use android 6.0.1_r25, for why please read this

Otherwise read change logs for details. If you dont find a feature from change logs mean it not included in my build

- Users pls test new boot animation, and report to me if it not work or work.

I dont have time to resize it, will be correct in next build

- Re added minimal dead zone on navbar, I forgot it in early build

- CMTE will ready for download later one or two days

#StayPureNexus and #HappyWeekend

LINK BACK TO BUILD 08042016 DUAL TO ISSUE WITH BOOTANIMATION, WILL ADDED BACK WHEN BUILD COMPLETED
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ariesgodofwar:
New boot animation does not seem to work at all.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] brordavid:
Does the Rom work even though boot animation doesn't work?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ariesgodofwar:
Yep, boots fine. Screen just goes blank where animation would otherwise be.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] brordavid:
Thank you, I guess it's time for a update then. :)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] blackbuffalo:
Thanks for your report, will fix

Yes, it still work even boot show black screen
[Nexus 4 Android Development] tito_puente:
Since last year I used aosp Frank, CM13, Chroma... Every rom got heavy lags after 3-4 weeks of usage. Also there was very often a wifi battery drain. Anybody experienced same problems with this rom? Or should I give it a try?

Don't know why I have this problems. On the one hand I don't think that it is caused by the hardware, on the other hand I think I have to look for a new cell phone...
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Try it. Pure Nexus is the best ROM for our Nexus 4, IMO. Make sure you do a clean install. Wipe everything except for the internal storage, if you want to avoid getting any problems. Also, don't flash the Gapps in the OP. Some users had some problems with them. Search for "Banks Gapps" or use Open Gapps.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] tito_puente:
Which opengapps-package is recommended? Mini, micro or nano?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Here's an old Gapps thread where you'll find the difference between the Gapps packages. Based on the info shown there, you can choose which Open Gapps you want to download.

Scroll down a bit to the "GAPPS PACKAGE COMPARISON" section, click on "click to show content" and you'll see there everything you need to know about them.

Can I download it now?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] kryzeK:
Wait, I always used official PureNexus Dynamic Gapps with this ROM and I never had any problems
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ariesgodofwar:
The only issue I can recall with the Dynamic Gapps is the lack of the CalendarStorage.apk, which I posted earlier in the thread. Just load that APK and it is fixed. Other than that, I have not had any issue with the latest Dynamic version.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] mkamodang:
Where is the download link for the latest update? The link in op (first page) still have the April purenexus.

First the initial no animation.?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] blackbuffalo:
It only show black screen for bootanimation, not affected to performance, speed, etc...Cause by I use wrong type of archive when archive this boot animation.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Don't worry bro. It's not like people will start rebooting their phones 20 times/hour to just see the damn bootanimation. It's not that relevant, so don't worry about that.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] cemilplt:
So you create a new build you ?.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] blackbuffalo:
as I say, everythings must be correct and sure with you, new build on the way. That why I removed link from OP

Dont care about this
[Nexus 4 Android Development] cemilplt:
Ok bro.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dsbnz:
Apart from the calendar apk etc, is there any specific benefits in using the open gapps rather than the pure nexus dynamic gapps?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Smaller zip file size.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dsbnz:
Apart from file size, if theres no significant difference im reluctant to switch to open gapps. So far the n4 is running perfect on this rom with the pure nexus dynamic gapps.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] phpbb3:
Will this update fix the lack of SuperSU in the cmte version?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] blackbuffalo:
New fixed version up
[Nexus 4 Android Development] kryzeK:
Why most Pure Nexus users prefer Layers build?

It is more stable? Less bugs? Best performance? Better battery? Cleaner?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
The layers build has the Layers Manager included, while the other has CMTE (cyanogenmod theme engine). So the only difference between then Is the theme engine. Both builds offer the exact same performance and features, except for the theme engine.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] emraz786:
boot animation fixed. it's simply beautiful this new design.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] mkamodang:
not

the link in the op still shows 8 april. Am doing something wrong? unable to locate the latest build.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] blackbuffalo:
What? I checked link up to date with Layers build date 0506 and CMTE build 0507

If you flash CMTE and see kernel build is old date because I used dirty build, all up to date, dont worry
[Nexus 4 Android Development] mkamodang:
Blackbuffalo, its OK now. The latest build is up, which wasn't there sometime ago. Downloaded latest build, downloading open gapps nano version. Thanks for the ROM and for your hard work :) always love pure nexus ROM.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] blackbuffalo:
It happened with some users, simple flash latest supersu via recovery will work
[Nexus 4 Android Development] cemilplt:
hellspawn is a very good kernel and it is compatible
[Nexus 4 Android Development] tito_puente:
I give it a try. I came from MIUI, then I installed stock rom LMY48T, formatted all including internal storage. I booted into android, then flashed twrp. Then I flashed "pure_nexus_mako-6.0.1-20160507-CMTE" and opengapps. I did a factory reset and wiped cache and dalvik several times before and after flashing pure nexus. Now it boots up. I thin that a more cleaner install isn't possible... :D

I will see how good it works... Thanks for your work!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] tito_puente:
Cmte build, also no supersu. Can I install supersu via playstore or do I have to flash via recovery? Which file do I need to flash?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] blackbuffalo:
Install latest supersu.zip via recovery

I understand dalvik and cache wipe, but why "kernel flashing"? I thought I only have to flash supersu?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] cemilplt:
always this way when loading dirty flash
[Nexus 4 Android Development] tito_puente:
Ok, but which kernel to flash? I wipe dalvik and cache, I flash supersu, then wipe dalvik and cache again an that's it? Or do I need to flash a kernel?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] cemilplt:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24533103863136970
[Nexus 4 Android Development] tito_puente:
That is not the original kernel which is included in pure nexus, am I right? I would like to stay as clean an original as possible.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] cemilplt:
the choice is up to you.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] tito_puente:
Yes, ok, that is clear to me. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate your help. But I only want to install supersu in the right way without modifying the rom in a further way.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Muljeb:
There is no need to flash any kernel unless you want to. Just download the zip for the SuperSU and clean-flash via recovery. You can find the stable and beta SuperSU in this thread

Can anybody tell me what does Cafeine button in quick settings supposed to do?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Caffeine keeps the screen on for a period of time (5 minutes, 10m, 30m, or infinite). For instance, let's say you want to install a bunch of apps from the Play Store. If the screen doesn't stay on and the phone goes to sleep, the apps won't install. As long as the device is active, the installation will finish. That's one of the things caffeine is good for.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] blackbuffalo:
It simple extended your screen time out

Exam:

When you play youtube, after some minutes, screen of your phone will turn-off

With Cafeine, you can set it extend to 10 , 30 minutes or 1 hours minutes or never turn off screen until you turn off your screen

It appears the Google camera app has changed in the latest dynamic gapps. Is it possible to have a flashable zip to replaces the latest camera app in current and future gapps with the version in PureNexus_Dynamic_GApps_6.x.x_4-7-16?

I could make a zip myself but im not sure if there are any dependencies, or issues in replacing the app with a previous version.

Reason for rolling back to camera version in PureNexus_Dynamic_GApps_6.x.x_4-7-16 , is for functioning video recording.

Cheers :)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] blackbuffalo:
You can make it yourself , it not contain any dependencies. Only apk file
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dsbnz:
So its as easy as overwriting/replacing the app itself? And thats all?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] tito_puente:
Flashed last stable of supersu. All seems to work. But I realized, that supersu is embedded in the menu and not as an app in the launcher. So it can be, that supersu was fully functional before. I only searched for supersu as an app. I hope that this will not be a problem... Thanks for your help!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Don't worry about that. The app is embedded in settings, but it's still the full app.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] blackbuffalo:
SuperSu from Settings fully supersu app. Dont know why but if I not wrong, after you flash supersu from recovery, booted device then open supersu app, icon in appdraw will hide, only use in settings

[Nexus 4 Android Development] tito_puente:
Yes, icon in app drawer dissappeared. Using supersu only under settings is no problem, problem is only that I didn't realized that supersu might be installed before I flashed supersu 2.65. Until now everything is fine, but I don't know if flashing supersu can cause any problems when it was installed before by flashing the rom.

Love Pure Nexus, have it on my N7 2013 Wifi.

I use F2FS to squeeze performance up, and today swapped out the battery dated 2012.11.16 to one dated 2016.1.04, so hoping that improves the awful battery life i was getting with LTE.

Hi, I'm on pure_nexus_mako-6.0.1-20160506, I have a problem with incoming calls, the screen stays black when start ringing, and if I push the power button, it switches on and off very fast, it's a nightmare to answer the phone...
[Nexus 4 Android Development] desireleß:
I never had such a problem.. which kernel do you use / any mods?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] gtavo:
No, fresh install, full wipes, original kernel..., 2 months ago, the first time I tested pure nexus happened the same, and I switched to another rom...
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dsbnz:
Does this version have the issue with flash out of sync?

If im right, only the pure nexus dynamic gapps has the camera app. If you installed Open Gapps, some variants of these Gapps (Nano etc..)may not install Google Camera app.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] nigelhealy:
Can't. When I attempt to install, it says it isn't installed. Same if the camera is enabled or disabled. Can't uninstall a built-in app only can disable.

So doesn't work. How?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Download a file manager from the Play Store, (I recommend "Solid explorer"), then use it to navigate to the root folder, system / app, and search for the Google camera folder. Remove it and reboot your phone. Then you can install the other camera app.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] nigelhealy:
Thanks, that worked. I off PC, did an adb shell , mount -oremount,rw /system , then rm -rf /system/app/googlecamera then rebooted then installed, it worked.

Weird, I have a Nexus 7 on the same versions of everything (officially supported PN) and its camera is working, so odd N4 had this problem.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] TNSMANI:
Navigation bar issue

See the screenshot. The navbar icons are out of alignment and the power icon is smaller than the rest in the May version of the ROM. In all earlier versions including the April one, they were properly spaced and sized.

Anyone else seeing this?

EDIT: I have edited it in PureNexus Settings and now the spacing is OK. But the Power icon still is smaller than the rest.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] tito_puente:
Yes, very annoying, the flash bug is there. All pictures taken with flash are black. Is there any way to remove this bug?

And you're right, I flashed opengapps and so there was no integrated camera.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dsbnz:
I think v2.5.052 was the last version of google camera that had flash in sync.

Im using pure nexus dynamic gapps (link in op), but copies over the camera app in last months version of the gapps package. I havnt tested the flash yet but think its v2.7.008 also.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Thrikiller18:

About wipping before install...

Hello, I've been reading but I'm not sure about wipping. I have a 5.1.1 stock ROM, could I install this ROM avoiding to wipe user data?

I'd like to use this ROM but I don't want to backup and restore everything I don't want to loose.

Wich are the mandatory wipes? Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
The ROM supports LTE.

But the LTE on the N4 is only compatible with band4, which works only in North America or Canada, from what I can remember. Things might've changed though.

If you have a 4G enabled SIM card, you can try to see if LTE works.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Rls4ever12:
Can anyone let me know what carrier they use? I am on metro pcs I have tried every thing still only have edge network. Going to switch maybe Verizon?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] j2002:
You can try, but I don't recommend that. You always have to full wipe (Everything except internal storage) when changing ROM. Even more when changing Android version.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] pevire:
Ok. I had to be psicologically ready to wipe everything. Is this ROM worth trying?

Thanks a lot.

By the way... What's the difference between Layers and CMTE? Thanks again.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] underskyzx:
You can use Titanium Backup to remove the camera app, you have to disable name space mount in SuperSU to make Titanium Backup work.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] j2002:
It is better than any 5.1. For me, also, is the best Marshmallow ROM, but this is only an opinion.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Both builds are AOSP based and basically identical when it comes to features and performance, etc, but one has "Layers" included and the other has "CMTE" (CyanogeMod Theme Engine).

So the only difference between them is the theme engine.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] brordavid:
How many times have you answered that question? :silly:
