Both models ;)

Ok, so I got my N5X this night, I already installed Cataclysm + EX kernel on it, runs very nice so far. Device is a little too big for my taste, but I guess I'll get used to that within a week.

Quick question to everyone (or maybe only [MENTION=3913401]atl4ntis[/MENTION]): I use a different alarm app (AlarmPad, because of Tasker integration), and when longpressing the Date & Time in the status bar, it only opens the Google clock app. Is it possible to redirect this to AlarmPad? I supposed it would ask me the first time what app I want to open the action with (like you get asked with which app you want to open a link the first time, for example), because that happened on SlimLP (on my other device). Is it possible to reroute this already and am I overseeing this option, or is it not possible (yet)?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] PiousInquisitor:
Remember this? I do. I doubt this one is going to be implemented. :)

Remember folks, "a few" really means "a lot of useful features and no useless add-ons". Also note that what is useful to you, is useless to someone else.

Thank for the lols Tilly.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] till22:
I actually shouldn't even bother replying since you obviously have some attitude issues, but have you thought about taking up sports to let a little steam off? You would probably find that to really alleviate the bitterness you so clearly show in here.

Also please note that I won't be replying to any other messages from you since I added you on my ignore list. :o
[Nexus 5X Android Development] atl4ntis:
Yes it can be made, actually just did it.

It's a good idea since you can now remove default Google clock with aroma.

It will work for every alarm app, not only AlarmPad.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] till22:
That's exactly what I meant, thanks a bunch!

It's nice to be running Cataclysm again, albeit on a different device. "Feels like home", although that may sound a bit cheesy :confused:

I was wrong. Lol. It is getting implemented. It's not a bad thing to be wrong about though it's it?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] bsaidmalta:
Is xposed supposed to work on Cataclysm? Keeps crashing my phone everytime I try to install it.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] magnamentis:
:good: that's sound way better LOL and it's exactly the way i think and how learning by error is fun. glad you took it well :angel:
[Nexus 5X Android Development] TheeWolf:
Xposed works for me.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Atemi1337:
Works for me too. Make sure your su is up to par, I'm currently on 2.67 without any issues. I can tell you which xposed I have installed if it would help.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] gorilla p:
I'm going to assume xposed will break AP?

For anyone wanting to test things, there's a cool tool called SafetyNet Playground that queries the SafetyNet API (Google Tripwire) to see if your config will trip something in SafetyNet.

Very useful for people trying to troubleshoot what broke AP, you can run that after every change to narrow it down.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] babylovebabie:
in the downloads sections, what are the "mods" for?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] nathanchance:
See this post. Just a heads up for the future, a quick search should have turned that post up since it was only a few pages back.

Yeah which version are you using? I downloaded the Arm64 SDK23 v79.zip
[Nexus 5X Android Development] koax88:
guys, is there no setting for network speed on status bar for this rom?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] HiM@L:
nope.

but there's system stat tile that shows network speed too.

Evey review i have read so far claims battery life on N5X is bad....
[Nexus 5X Android Development] FoleyRose:
Ummm, no... They say it's average, average being 3 to 3.5 hours of SoT.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] OldGaf:
Well this is good to hear... would you say it is on par with the N5 as far as battery life?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] buru898:
It's definitely better than what I would get on my N5.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] FoleyRose:
On my N5 I had to charge in the afternoon and on my N5X I'm going to bed with 20 to 30% left. I'm not a power user, but I think those numbers speak for themselves.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] mineIsAlreadyTaken:
I went from 3 hours SOT average on the N5 to 4.5 on the N5X with similar usage and apps installed .. I'm nothing short of amazed.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] atl4ntis:
I think i've forgot to merge those two features on changelog for bullhead, still getting used to build for so many devices on different branches.

I've reuploaded the files tagging them as Nov 21 for convenience.

So tempted to flash... Buy can wait for brightness slider if it ever gets implemented. Might cave in and just flash though. ?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] androidsnax:
Just flash it man! :)
[Nexus 5X Android Development] atl4ntis:
yep, no point having non-working features listed.

Will work on them though.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] dorqus:
Had an odd issue this morning - couldn't make or receive phone calls at all, phone settings kept showing "Network or SIM card error" rebooting didn't clear it up, nor did disabling smart radio. Wiped and restored the stock backup I made before installing and now all is good - might have just been me, but just throwing it out there - I had been running the most recent version from 11.21. I think I have a logcat of the issue happening if you're interested.

Logcat - https://www.dropbox.com/s/vn00pi3jpk512os/phone1.txt?dl=0
[Nexus 5X Android Development] dorqus:
Reflashed the 11.21 build on stock rom and so far so good....
[Nexus 5X Android Development] skttrbrain:
Loved this ROM on the N5 and having it on the 5X is great news! I have a question though - how will we update when new versions of Android are rolled out? On the N5 it was easier because the entire ROM was contained, but with this just being a flashable zip over the top of the stock ROM I'm just curious how it will be handled.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] andresee:
Fastboot new version then flash updated mod.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] bobby janow:
I'm coming from the n6p to this, the reasons not pertinent. But I'm completely stock with bootloader unlocked on version M. There were multiple issues with TWRP at the outset on the 6p so I pretty much bailed on rooting and custom recovery. To flash this rom I would only need to fastboot the latest 2.8.7.2 recovery and then flash the rom? I would not need to root or if I wanted to I could unroot via a reflash of the rom as I did with Cata on my N5? I do like to use Android Pay and as per my N5 that is not possible with root. Is it as simple as described?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] andresee:
Yes you would need to flash custom recovery then flash the Mod. This is not a full rom anymore just a mod to stock rom. So you will need to be on stock rom with custom recovery and unlocked bootloader. Cata Mod does not root your device so you do not need to worry about it if you do not want to be rooted. But if you want root and still use android pay check out ChainFires systemless root. I am running it and Pay stil works and I have root. Let me know if you have any questions.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] bobby janow:
Great info, thanks. Just a question or two on systemless root before I start to muck up this thread. Can I flash the systemless boot.img in fastboot after I install the mod and then superSU 2.56? At that point I'm rooted and AP works along with ProjectFi? Chainfire gives a lot of warning starting off by.. Are you sure you really want to do this? hehe
[Nexus 5X Android Development] andresee:
You are correct. Flash Mod then fastboot CFs boot.img then SU 2.56. As for projectfi I dont use it so not sure about it but I do not think root will mess with it. AP is working for now but google might patch it later to not work with the new root method. So far I havent had any issues with the CFs systemless root. I do not use alot of root apps other then adaway and kernel tweaking apps. But if you have nay issue you can always just flash System again and go back to being unrooted. But I always do a twrp backup so I can recover back to stock if I had too.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] SlyUK:
[MENTION=5712273]andresee[/MENTION] If you wanted to flash another custom kernel, you would need to be rooted before doing so, isn't it ?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] andresee:
No you do not need to be rooted to flash a custom kernel. You do need a custom kernel/boot.img to support root. Like Cfs or the one that comes in the cata mod. But if you want to tune the kernels settings you will need root for the kernel app to work. Does this make since?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] SlyUK:
[MENTION=5712273]andresee[/MENTION] Which kernel tweaking app(s) do you use and have you come across L Speed ?

---------- Post added at 08:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:34 PM ----------

[MENTION=5712273]andresee[/MENTION] So rooting is only necessary therefore to run rooted apps ?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] andresee:
It depends on what kernel you are using... Like elementalx has its own kernel app from its dev. I use kernel audiutor but I have used kernel tweaker and synapsis before on my N5. Lets keep on topic if you and any questions about kernels and stuff PM me.

Lets respect atl4ntis and keep to Cata Mod discussion.

---------- Post added at 06:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:39 PM ----------

Yes. Root is needed to just run rooted apps and other functions that need root level access.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] SlyUK:
[MENTION=5712273]andresee[/MENTION] Agreed. Thanks for clarifying though :)
[Nexus 5X Android Development] xxc0dvshal0xx:
does the disable motion sensing on doze feature allow the phone to enter doze while it is moving?

[Nexus 5X Android Development] nathanchance:
Alright, crossposting one last time here just to help people out if they can't understand the OP or want more detailed instructions:

Installation instructions:

If you are on another custom ROM:

1. In TWRP, go to Wipe > Advanced Wipe and wipe everything but internal storage.

2. Select Reboot in TWRP and reboot to bootloader.

3. Plug your phone into the computer, download the MDB08M zip from the Factory Images site, unzip it and extract the system.img (and vendor.img if you are not on MDB08M already), move it to which ever folder you want and run the command fastboot flash system system.img (and fastboot flash vendor vendor.img) [Google if you need help with this or use this thread].

4. Boot into recovery mode (TWRP) from the bootloader (use volumes keys to move down and power button to select).

5. Flash Cataclysm Mod zip.

6. Flash SuperSU if you want root.

7. Flash a custom kernel if you want.

If you are on stock:

1. Make sure you are on MDB08M; if not, boot into the bootloader and follow step 3 above (should not need to wipe).

2. Boot into recovery mode (TWRP) from the bootloader (use volumes keys to move down and power button to select).

3. Flash Cataclysm Mod zip.

4. Flash SuperSU if you want root.

5. Flash a custom kernel if you want.

If already on Cataclysm Mod:

1. Flash in TWRP, no wipes necessary.

2. Flash SuperSU if you are not already rooted and want to be.

3. Flash a custom kernel if you want.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] gerbig:
Thanks for the great update! Per app immersive is super useful! Swipe status for brightness was probably your most requested feature! You are too good!
[Nexus 5X Android Development] emceeb:
I was looking in the features but I couldn't find, Can anyone tell me if this has network speed on the status bar option and if not can anyone tell me how do it get that.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] szucsgf:
No this ROM doesn't have network speed indicator. You can use an app. For example:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.internet.speed.meter.lite

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.glitter.internetmeter

[Nexus 5X Android Development] nathanchance:

[Nexus 5X Android Development] dorqus:
Thanks, I tried the link in the 1st post. *shrug*
[Nexus 5X Android Development] parthabhatta:
The latest downloaded version seems for MDB08M. Is there a separate version for firmware MDB08L or the latest one is supposed to work with all?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] nathanchance:
If you are on MDB08L, you only need to flash the system.img and the vendor.img from MDB08M. After that, you should be good to go to flash Cataclysm in TWRP.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] zurih:
Thanks for this [MENTION=3913401]atl4ntis[/MENTION], I've tried different ROMs and this seems to be the one that's most suited to me.

One request - is it possible to change the "Text Only" battery style? It's a different font than other elements in the status bar (like clock), plus there is no indication when the battery is being charged.

Maybe make it like the battery mod in gravity box -same font as the click, add % next to the text, + when the battery being charged make it animate.

Is this possible?

Thank you!
[Nexus 5X Android Development] gerbig:
Your battery text doesn't turn into a lightning bolt while charging? I'm pretty sure mine does...
[Nexus 5X Android Development] zurih:
Actually I just noticed that the text becomes from White to Gray while charging.

So the only thing I wish for is that the text font will be the same as the clock and maybe add %
[Nexus 5X Android Development] HiM@L:
% behind battery text is being asked many times before and the answer is its not gonna happen...but font not sure.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] till22:
Hi guys, I don't own a N5X (yet?) and don't want to start any OT or battery-life boasting posts. I had a N5 until 1 month ago and am considering to buy the N5X now it has a discount and goes for $349 (32GB). Could you guys send me (by PM) some screenshots/reports of idle/SOT drain? How long does your device last? I'm posting this in this particular thread because I would be using atl4ntis' Cataclysm ROM and the ElementalX kernel like I used to on my N5.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] zurih:
Reporting a potential issue:

I've tried to use the new immersive mode per app. When using the app set to immersive, sometimes (randomly) the system UI is restarting itself.

It usually happens when leaving the app/re-entering.

When not using the immersive mode in any app, there is no issue.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] dg4prez:
Thought I'd check this out, since I wanted to try android pay. Liking it so far, very interesting idea. Wouldn't mind an option to set the cursor keys to the normal layout, though - usually they're outside the other three softkeys, not between them. Minor nitpick, I know. Love that you have the hide-when-disconnected bluetooth option, too.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] atl4ntis:
It's normal to have that little glitch sometimes when you're forcing just an app instead of whole system to immersive mode.

Well what's "normal" is debatable :). Not like if "others" got them on the outside makes mine implementation not normal.

I'm a perfectionist and i usually do a lot of research while implementing a feature.

In my opinion the keys on the inside are handy for one handed typing and most important they won't remove the keyboard selector on the right side. That selector it's very important for some people who switch keyboard often for various reasons (different languages/charsets,voicetyping) when on same text.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] SlyUK:
Out of interest does anyone run a third party launcher eg Nova, Action, Home UX Beta... that further enhances their Cataclysm experience ?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] nathanchance:
Nova has always been my go to launcher. I have tried sticking with the Google Now Launcher but I love to customize and that is all that Nova allows you to do. Never had an issue with performance and there is so much you can do with it, definitely give it a whirl if you haven't.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] SlyUK:
Thanks I wasn't sure cos I've never really heard anyone talking about them. It has no -ve impact on Cataclysm performance ?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] nathanchance:
No, Nova has never had a performance problem on any of the ROMs I have been on.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] skttrbrain:
Hi atl4ntis, a potential bug I've noticed - sometimes when I unlock the phone, the status bar will be open (but at the most collapsed size if you know what I mean? i.e. I have to drag it down to show the quick settings). I don't remember it doing this when I was on stock, and I'm afraid I can't really pinpoint what makes it do it as it seems quite random so there's a chance it's not Cataclysm, but I think it is. Thanks.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] k.s.deviate:
Did a search but it didn't turn up anything so I'll just ask. Are the layers commits being added as they come out? If not, are there any plans to ad them in? BTW looking forward to trying this out.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] atl4ntis:
WIll look into it, please if you find a way to reproduce it let me know.

Now that RRO commits are already included in AOSP and lot of themes are targeting stock and working good i'm not sure if i'll add Layers commits as they are inconsistent and buggy.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] tingljjdehua:
Hi [MENTION=3913401]atl4ntis[/MENTION], I've been a long time user of Cataclysm since N5. Thank you for the great work! Running smoothly on N5X with EX kernel. Just a quick question. I noticed you have uploaded stable release for N5, so will you do the same for N5X? Just checking, sorry if that is related to ETA.

Also, a note to people who is new to Cataclysm is that, just because this ROM is about 35 mb big doesn't mean it's not a GREAT rom. The only requirement though is to have the stock image ready. [MENTION=3913401]atl4ntis[/MENTION] has done a lot of optimization in his 35 mb mod-like zip so you can expect better experience than factory stock ROM. Features like wake screen notification, vibrate-ringer switcher, smart timeout, swipe navigation bar to lock and the DRAG mode of status bar are my favorite features that are ONLY available in Cataclysm which make me favor Cataclysm over Chroma or PureNexus (even though the latter two ROMs are also awesome).
[Nexus 5X Android Development] vampire36:
Now that someone has pointed happens here as well ! I use swipe to sleep gesture and a few times have seen status bar open with no notifications ! Happens randomly !
[Nexus 5X Android Development] OldGaf:
Layers support would truly be awesome... I assume support is 100% down to the ROM (nothing to do with kernel)?

---------- Post added at 06:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:36 PM ----------

Wait.. I am confused more then my noobish mind thought..... does this mean this ROM DOES support RRO Layers as it is based on AOSP ?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] till22:
RRO is included in stock Android 6.0. This ROM is basically stock with some extra tweaks.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] nathanchance:
I believe they are referring to the new Layers 4.0 commits that are being used by other custom ROMs and being updated for by themers.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] till22:
I believe atl4ntis already expressed his stance on that too: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64148778&postcount=112
[Nexus 5X Android Development] OldGaf:
Lol... Wow.....no kidding.... that is what i was quoting but was looking for clairification as i dont full understand it..... ツ

I was looking at this:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=bitsykolayers.piereligio.dst

It states:

"The theme has been tested on Android M2 and M3, stock Android Marshmallow (yeah!), Cataclysm ROM (hybrid AOSP/Stock ROM) and Minimal OS ROM (AOSP)."

And:

"Layers Dark theme stock Marshmallow Android 6 6.0"

But then i read atl4ntis state this:

"i'm not sure if i'll add Layers commits as they are inconsistent and buggy."

So...

1. Is the RRO theme i linked supported yes or no...

2. What am i not getting here... obviousely i am confused about the AOSP built in support and the need to also have 4.0 commits added to some ( ? ) ROMS.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] nathanchance:
Google has built in RRO support to Marshmallow but there are some extra commits that are labeled at Layers 4.0 that expose certain values to be themed that are not present in stock. That layer is supported.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] OldGaf:
Awesome.. and clear :)

Thanks alot!

***

Layer added and I have a nice dark theme (ya I know... ppl get bored of dark themes but I do prefer it).

Now running Cataclysm, Elemental and have the look I want... the phone finally feels like "MY" phone.

Thanks a lot atl4ntis for this great ROM :)
[Nexus 5X Android Development] dorqus:
So what theme did you end up using? The one you linked in the play store?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] OldGaf:
Ya... It's the only one I found so far.... Have not looked further yet. So far so good.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] occtec:
[MENTION=3913401]atl4ntis[/MENTION] just got my device today and would like to flash cata but i can only see a beta update of 35.6mb cannot find the full rom, where can i download it please. Thanks for bringing cata to the N5x, you awesome work is always appreciated. Cheers
[Nexus 5X Android Development] nathanchance:
You just need to be on stock MDB08M then you can flash that Cataclysm zip. For the Nexus 6, 6P and 5X, Cataclysm is shipped at a modification to stock Android since atl4ntis doesn't own any of those device. Read the OP, it has installation instructions but I have more specific ones if you need them.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] occtec:
Thanks for the heads up, so i flash latest factory image, flash twrp, root using supersu 2.52, then flash cata??

Thanks again :)
[Nexus 5X Android Development] nathanchance:
I would flash factory image, TWRP, Cataclysm then SuperSU personally but I don't think it matters. No problem!
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Xx-Ness-xX:
A little off topic, but I was able to use Android Pay with my phone rooted & bootloader unlocked running Elemental Kernel..

I was so surprised when the transaction went through because I couldn't even add a single credit card when I was using my Nexus 5
[Nexus 5X Android Development] StringerE:
Are you using the new system-less root method or traditional?

I am also able to use android pay. I am using the traditional root method, and am encrypted.
