Contacts problem

guys

I have maybe 10 contacts sync'd from my gmail but most are from exchange. When I go into contacts and try to edit one of the exchange contacts (have mailwise), it still says I can only save it into gmail. When I click on linked contact in the attached screenshot, it clearly says exchange

How do i fix this? I want to maintain all contacts in exchange and also save any edits directly there

When I go into contacts -> settings, under default account for new contacts, it only shows my gmail and it's checked

Thx

Guys a little question , I don't want to install the stock factory image to try the mod , anyone know a good stock image to flash with recovery ? I using MultiROM just in case ( full cataclysm as first rom ).

Second , the mod Contains all the modification that the full cata has right?

I forget to say I am using a nexus 5

Sorry for the questions I never try the mod
[Android General] magnamentis:
you would only have to install the system.img not the entire stock factory image. to flash the system.img does not take more time than to flash a rom just FYI. as to flashable zips, i don't use any but you find some in the nexus 5 thread under "android development.

i personally don't recommend that path, not because it does not work, but should any issues arise you will never know for sure what the culprit is before having used a stock system.img. if you're ok with that possibility and know how to troubleshoot in case, it's up to you. ( normally all goes well, so don't worry )

further, yes the mod contains all what the full rom did including the kernel, that's important to know because you'd have to flash the custom kernel after the mod if you are using one. be aware that superSU makes a backup of the kernel and the mod comes unrooted, hence you'd have to root if you want a rooted device. best root before the kernel, hence after the rom + mod + root + kernel in that order.
[Android General] AndresOrue:
I appreciate it mate, I will try it and see how it works
[Android General] NLBeev:
I have used the cata-mod on a N6.

Worked great on the N6 stock ROM, and also with the recent lite-rom of [MENTION=4830253]Danvdh[/MENTION].

Now using the lite-rom because Dan produces monthly updates before the ota's.
[Android General] magnamentis:
he's using a nexus 5 ;)
[Android General] NLBeev:
Ahum... Pressed sent to quickly

yeah, happens to all of us, BTW as compared to non-readers, missing some point is a disadvantage for some "a lot readers" LOL :highfive:

A month without atl4ntis... It seems that his decision is final...

Anyone have tried to flash the mod on top of xtrasmooth rom?
[Android General] magnamentis:
29 posts in 3 years + this post + alibi question = TROLLING-(account) IMO :cyclops:
[Android General] cleps:
Troll? Really not that smart to add nothing really relevant to Android development. Thats the reason for such few posts... In 3 years, almost always with Cat. Dont understand why you need to offend me.

My question about xtrasmooth only have the propose of oppening some possibilities, for me, to flash latest Android version and still use cataclysm mod.

Really dont see the reason for you offend me.
[Android General] derdjango:
I don't see one either. Not everybody is so active here and it only shows how stable cataclysm is.

Yes, you can use xtrafactory as a base and right now the mod still works as indicated in the OP of this thread.
[Android General] cleps:
I have the february update with 5jan mod. But, for that, i have to wipe all the information from my phone. I read that xtrasmooth was almost stock, so i think that it might work, avoing erasing all the information. Thats the reason for my question, magnamantis. Only trying to found a way of having a hipotetical march update and maintain cataclysm and my data.
[Android General] paolocorpo:
Ciao to all!

I have recently purchased a N5X

I would like repeat the good experience done with N4 and this exellecent MOD CATCALYSM

Now the N5X has 6.0.1 (MMB29Q)

I am wating the adapter in order to connect to PC and inblock bottloader, install the recovery custom and the root

After i would like install the Cataclysm mod

On the read only 3D dedicated to N5X we can read:

What have I to do having on device the MMB29Q stock ?

2 or 3 option ??

I am confused :confused:

Many thnaks

Paolo
[Android General] derdjango:
Just flash the CAT Mod :good:
[Android General] magnamentis:
that's an easy one, replace the version number by the latest, mostly ending with "Q" but not sure about 5x, doesn't matter. just take the latest and perform the same way like if it would be the version mentioned in the thread.

what you have to keep in mind is that you have to flash superSU between 2.52 and 2.67 whichever you prefer and that the message you were quoting was written before the lates google factory image was released but nevertheless applies in full to the latest google factory image.

hope that helps
[Android General] paolocorpo:
Many thanks to both :)

I will unblock bootloader

I will flash TWRP last

I will install the CATACLYSM MOD flashing CataclysmMod-Jan_06_2016-BULLHEAD-MMB29P_Stable

I will install root flashing the last 2.67

Is it right ?:good:
[Android General] Arstoien:
That's right. And let me just say thanks for asking well formulated questions with enough information to clearly understand what you mean – unlike so many want-it-all-now people with questions in the forums. Wish more people were like you :) cheers!
[Android General] paolocorpo:
Many thanks

You are wellcome

I am a great user of forum and I am completely agree with you : the information must be very clear :good:;)
[Android General] sam008:
Can anybody help with this

Thx
[Android General] ben_pyett:
Slightly confused, by your question in all honesty. You would be better off posting this in the general QA section.
[Android General] Alxoom33:
Ben, just caught up reading the thread after receiving your e-mail. Thank you for letting me know about this thread. Thank you [MENTION=3241824]magentis[/MENTION] for staring and maintain the thread. We all love the Cataclysm Mod and [MENTION=3913401]atl4ntis[/MENTION]' great work

I UAE the Nexus 6 with [MENTION=366662]dam[/MENTION]vh'lite Rom with Nova launcher, EX Kernel and Cat Mod. I use Layers Material Glass, Vivid and Inversion themes. Wondering if there is a way of installing Layers without corrupting the System Partition?
[Android General] NLBeev:
The lite rom of Danvdh leaves enough memory to use layers. You can save the active layers from the folder 'system/vendor/overlay' and restore the layers after flashing the lite rom.
[Android General] magnamentis:
the warmest welcom from staring magentis AKA as magnamentis ( just kidding, my mobile typing is much worse even )

as to the topic, corrupting? could it be that you mean "writing to" or "altering" because neither installing layers nor deleting gapps to make room for mods and the likes would "corrupt" system partition. just wanna make sure because if i understood your question correctly i think that layers will and have to be in /system/vendor/overlay. should i have misunderstood i beg your pardon and perhaps someone else can say more. even though i usually get the layers work to my liking i'm not that savvy when it comes to how exactly layers to their thing. :)

enjoy and don'd hesitate to contact me if you think i can help you out.
[Android General] Alxoom33:
Thank you [MENTION=5372360]magnamentis[/MENTION] for your warm wecome and understanding :) And apologize for my lousy typing. What I meant is my desire to avoid altering the System Partition with Layers so as to be able to take an OTA with Flashfire. Something I have not done in a long time. Also, when I tried using Flashfire to flash the stock System Image and bootloader on my N6 and then the Cataclysm Mod. I had issues when I added Layers. I tried debloating without success. So I reflashed the latest Q [MENTION=1228596]danv[/MENTION]h light Nova debloated stock base and Cataclysm Mod.

---------- Post added at 05:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:37 PM ----------

Yes, that's what I have been using. What I was wondering is if there is away to set up Layers outside of the stock System Partition of the N6, like in the 6p with a separate Vendor image?
[Android General] jineshpatel30:
yah i saw SS but i just want to make sure that you/users were aware of what was the case back then. it's good to know it's working without any problem i'll probably flash this next week end (bit busy now) and will post if i incur some abnormality on my side :)

and your approach is perfect :) personally i also posted in one on Cata's Orphan thread to have faith on atl4ntis , bcz he's one of the good devs who sees greater good for users and won't punish tons of loyal users. i have full hope that he will return when he has some significant to share (may be not officially as you said (bcz no one likes to waste unnecessary time on unproductive things/replies) but surly on his privet space :fingers-crossed: )

[Android General] galakanokis:
You can dirty flash (fastboot) Google's latest system image and then the mod over top. It's quick and easy.
[Android General] magnamentis:
you got your PM i'm sure, just a bit of patience please, i was searching a second link for you but didn't find it ;)
[Android General] rcrd-pt:
didnt know that. i've been trying other ROM but im sure ill be back for cata.

cataclysm tribe unite :)
[Android General] magnamentis:
correct reply, just providing the complete terminal command : fastboot flash system system.img

you can use this ADB command to dirty flash after extracting the google system.img from the factory image and placing in any folder on your computer.

next step would be to establish the path to that folder in a terminal window and paste the above command

the rest was said, simply flash the latest mod over the system.img from recovery hence you'd have to boot from bootloader into custom recovery to flash the mod plus any other mods, kernels etc.
[Android General] galakanokis:
That's assuming you are already on stock, never done it coming from cm or other. But I have done it with Cata + mod with no issues.

I'm not currently on Cata either but probably will be back by mid next week. Always come back.
[Android General] magnamentis:
that's correct, when coming from another custom rom the usual procedure ( clean install ) applies, consisting of:

- wipe syste

- wipe data (not sdcard / media )

- wipe cache partition

- fastboot flash system.img via ADB i bootloader

- boot into custom recovery (i.e. TWRP) and flash the latest available MOD, downloaded from AFH
[Android General] ben_pyett:
In regards to that link, the webcache link unfortunately appears to have expired, annoyed that I didn't save it anywhere offline, did you? as that is far more explanatory than the pushbullet post, if you did then please PM me.
[Android General] magnamentis:
i remember that i posted a screenshot somewhere, just trying to remember where, eventually via PM and deleted it :(
[Android General] Arstoien:
I think you're talking about this: (link removed) got it from a post in the unofficial google+ Cataclysm community)

I hope it doesn't spark a discussion here, as magnamentis said, that wasn't the point of the thread. Just posting for anyone not up to date.
[Android General] Atticustrd:
Great read, thanks for posting.
[Android General] magnamentis:
it's very kind of you that you provide this, i made a copy into a word file.

but please delete the link. that's the post which the moderators removed which (the removal) ultimately caused his farewell and we don't want trouble.

we can provide that link via PM or by other means on request.

please do us all that favour, it was well meant but we want to keep this platform for further exchange if you understand what i mean. thanks :angel:
[Android General] Arstoien:
Good, I did. Just you and the poster above yours, who quoted me, might want to do the same :)

[Android General] t3al:
And now that the page is in our cache we have to refresh the page to see the new updates (not just visit it).

Thanks Google
[Android General] magnamentis:
hehe... funny, so as it seems (logically) many if not all of us are eagerly looking forward to the next update to see whether our "best in town" solution still works ;)

i think that it will first brake for N5x and N6p because they need to update the vendor.img as well while there is a chance that it will work for some time with the older vendor.img. however if we look inside that vendor.img, google obviously has started to pack basic and key stuff in there that were in system.img before so that to have a fully working cata-mod it will probably be only if it works with system.img AND the vendor.img updated.

all just guesswork but let's see, i'm as curious as you guys are :laugh:
[Android General] NLBeev:
I've unzipped the cata-mod. Cata exits mainly of system apk's and so. library files. When we know the location and the name of the stock apk/libs we can flash the cata-mod files manually after the update.
[Android General] derdjango:
I think with so close to Android N being presented, we'll get a version bump this month to 6.1. But I'm pretty sure that it will be an incremental update and the mod will work anyway. I got pretty used to using stock now and it's fine as it is, works for me. I have my hopes on cataclysm returning with Android N :good:
[Android General] cleps:
I tried to install cataclysm mod over xtrasmooth rom. For now, I have very good performance and stability. All the features of Cataclysm are intact. This might be usefull for those who, like me, doesn´t want to erase all data when a new factory image appears. Obviously, no idea if this will work with futre updates...

In this moment, I have installed Xtra Rom + Cataclysm Mod + Audiofix + Xposed. No bugs and no problems till now...
[Android General] magnamentis:
so close is a bit relative, prone to personal interpretation. it's probably 3-4 months away which is a quarter to a third of a life cycle which for me to be honest is still far away. however my guess is a guess as is your guess LOL, which makes it so interesting, while my interest is mostly focused on the fact that once something will brake, we shall soon after that find out whether there is a chance to get an update from our master in italy ;)
[Android General] derdjango:
That's why I wrote presented not released ?

I was just saying, that a version bump is overdue for marshmallow.
[Android General] magnamentis:
sure i got that, but it remains a guess and/or an assumption, can be or cannot be, who knows, while as to the version bumpt that's been like that in the past hence the guess is an educated one.

as to presented and my 3-4 months we mean the same !! because release would make it 7-8 months away and since i left it to personal interpretation as to what is soon and not so soon it makes little sense to debate this back and forth except for eventual righteousness.

[Android General] dpj52190:
Google n5x updated to MMB29V and then MHC19J. Images up on their factory images site. can someone test MHC19J and cata mod to see if it works?
[Android General] greyhd:
I think the images are carrier specific. One might work for a number of carriers and the other won't. You can flash the images(Try J first) and flash cata on top since they are still based on 6.0.1.
[Android General] derdjango:
It's not an appropriate manner to ask other people to test (unless you are a developer).

Shamu, Cat Mod working. Another happy month with cataclysm, peeps!
[Android General] Alxoom33:
And why are you asking instead of testing?:confused:
[Android General] redsmith:
Guys, would it be fine to flash system.img and then the mod over the current setup? Or should I do a clean flash? Either way is good, I love to clean flash now and then, just want to save a little time this afternoon.
[Android General] Alxoom33:
Make a backup and try both. As long as you have your Nandroid you should be safe.

It's safer to freeze the apps than delete them.
[Android General] magnamentis:
Nexus 5 & Nexus 6 done and running flawlessly.

i little hint perhaps as to the overloaded system partition for those who are using TiBu:

if you boot into system and first thing you do is to open TiBu, all apps that were removed before appear on top as a "red back" and with missing backups, hence one can very comfortably and without searching or thinking simply remove (uninstall ) all those.

this makes it easy to flash system.img from factory image which is by far the cleanest approach and those 2 minutes it takes to uninstall 10-20 apps is no big deal really. those who were aware so far so good, but thought perhaps some of you did not yet stumble over the fact that fresh installed apps in TiBu appear on top ( system apps must be checked to show of course :) )

see you in a months LOL [just kidding]

You can use Flashfire. Or flash a stock rom.
[Android General] rcrd-pt:
so i flash the stock ROM and cata mod?

thanks
[Android General] derdjango:
Yes. I'd do a clean flash if you first flash a ROM (although a dirty flash will most likely work). And I'd also flash a custom kernel since the cat mod includes one but it's an outdated one from December.

Download stock rom, cat mod, kernel, (supersu)

Back up your data

Wipe everything but internal storage

Flash: stock rom, cat mod, (supersu), kernel

Just a reminder that there is a thanks button.
[Android General] YassGo:
Do you guys think it can work with this ROM ?
[Android General] NLBeev:
Flashed the lite rom mmb29v of [MENTION=4830253]Danvdh[/MENTION] in TWRP recovery.

Than flashed partly the cata-mod. Only framework and libs. Result: extended boot-menu and kill app by long pressing the back button.

Third flash the settings and systemui of cata-mod.

Result: cata-settings in settings menu and extensions in quickmenu.

Not flashed yet he last part of cata-mod: telecom.

This partly flashing prooves that parts of the cata-mod works with MM.

Could be important with future updates.

EDIT This partly flashing was possible with the script I got from [MENTION=803530]Droidphilev[/MENTION]
