[E 2015 Original Android Development] :
No problem-i will ALWAYS give my honest feed back, but the discussion still rages on as to whether there was a CM bug that broke the gapps, or if there was a gapps issue that broke CM13........

I personally don't use open gapps and only tested it on Good Friday when everyone was complaining that they had these google play service errors-indeed, I found when I downloaded the 03/28 open gapps, I got the same error as described, but as I was only conducting a test, I reflashed my usual A gapps package and the error had gone.

I'm sorry I was a little cynical back there, but I've never had such a stable and fast firmware as I do right now, and even better than stock, but I can only compare to the EU retail stock 5.0.2 firmware I came from-the UK never got a 5.1.1 update, as Motorola announced in late January we were skipping 5.1 to go straight to 6.0, but as I've said many times before, and commenting on the fact I had and still own a 1st gen Moto E, if Motorola's update programme for E2 is anything like what the E1 programme was, UK won't see the 6.0 update before September/October, as Asia, Russia and all of mainland Europe got the 5.1 update for the E1 months before UK, in fact by last November, I was so fed up waiting I flashed CM13 on my E1, and its still going strong, although now relegated to "work" phone status :)

Great ROM fast and stable. The only problem I found is with Evernote. It crash on first launch.

Im with latest nightly and latest opengapps mini

The rest without problems. ?

I tested out all the latest opengapps (30/3) files (Pico, Nano, Micro, etc.) and I experienced no issues I tested it on the first nightly and the 28/3 nightly. For me all of them worked so I'm assuming it was an opengapps issue

Try allowing data roaming in settings?
[E 2015 Original Android Development] :
That's what I would do........ ;)

I'm not using mobile data at the moment, I had a nasty surprise when I got my monthly bill a week ago, and my data usage had rocketed, using my monthly 1gb allowance, my safety buffer and some! (Its facebooks fault......)

I'm only using data on my home WiFi now, getting nagged by an annoyed wife for having a big mobile bill is not nice (and my ears are still ringing hahaha)
[E 2015 Original Android Development] dandrumheller:
This was my first thought as well. Never seen that warning before.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] rokban:
Ya ofcourse data on roaming is allowed. This is more serious issue which I faced even with stock ROM, but eventually after spending more time googling I think i got a solution ,in YouTube search restricted access changed and it will lead to a video with solution.. Sorry for the OT

Latest nightly 03/31

You tube random freeze, but no f/c

Making a call seems to take ages to connect.

General speed and fluidity seems to have suffered, I'm not complaining I'm just pointing out that something seems to have compromised overall speed, its much much more hesitant on this nightly rather than laggy, everything just seems to take twice as long.

This was a dirty flash as usual with a wipe of dalvik/cache after flashing.

I also noticed the lock screen wallpaper has changed to something other than my usual wallpaper, not a complaint, its just something I've noted, and it makes no difference at all to my enjoyment.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] ayush rao:

Live Lock Screen cannot be unset

I am using cm13-20160331 and enabled the live lock screen and selected (the only available) option "color". The lock screen now was very colorful. Then i disabled the live lock screen. But the lock screen is still all colorful. I tried soft reboot but still am stuck with the (ugly) colors. Is this a bug or am i doing something wrong?

Beside that glitch i found no more problems.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] KonomiKitten:
No you're not doing something wrong I can reproduce this bug, do you have any idea in which build it broke? I'll lodge a bug report soonish for it.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] :
Eeewwwww I'm not brave enough ;)
[E 2015 Original Android Development] ayush rao:

compass

is there no internal compass on this phone? ive noticed the past week while switching roms and testing things that i have no compass input. im aware it seems very trivial, but idk if its normal or a bug.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] RiceCakeWtf:
There is no compass. Its easily identified by the fact that there is no compass in the stock ROMs or...any official documentation for that matter.

i'm using the build from 3/28/2016 and I am having absolutely no luck getting any type of Gapps to work. i've tried the OpenGapps from the same day as the CM build and nothing
[E 2015 Original Android Development] ayush rao:
Dude u can't flash gapps after booting into CM

Did you try A gapps? Its available here on XDA, I use A gapps pico, it's only 40mb!!
[E 2015 Original Android Development] PriPhaze:
What? he never said he boot into CM, he said that he flashed the gapps from the same day of release as the CM build but they didnt work.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] ayush rao:
Oh! I thought when he said I have been trying the build , he meant it after booting.

Never Mind

I am extremely sorry :(
[E 2015 Original Android Development] :
Correct.

A word of warning to everyone.

Never and I mean NEVER flash the ROM reboot back to android, to then go back to recovery to flash gapps.

Queue the zips to flash in TWRP by flashing ROM, kernel (if you are using a custom kernel) then gapps and anything else, in my case its the ROM, squid kernel, A gapps, the official nexus MM boot animation and finally xposed.

Follow this procedure and you won't have errors, I'm now confident after conducting my own tests, reading this and the moto E 1st gen CM13 thread that some people are incorrectly rebooting to android after the initial ROM flash, then going back into recovery to flash the gapps.

This will result in the errors described.............

And two or three pages of this thread to be brutally honest have been wasted on the same issue even though some of the senior members kept advising everyone there was no gapps issue.

One or two people have now admitted to this incorrect flashing procedure here and on the moto e 1st gen CM13 thread I'm following because that is how they did it when "they had an X, Y or Z device" and didn't know this was an incorrect procedure for the Moto E 2015!

I'm not having a go at anyone but let's make sure we ALL follow the devs instructions so we can rule out Human installation error when we try to help you sort a problem out ! :)

Never go against the devs installation instructions.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] chepe263:
I'm having an extrange behaviour with turning the sdcard into internal storage.

I'm using a 128GB sandisk micro sd, cm 13 nightly 20160331.

The behaviour is, WiFi doesn't work with the sdcard as internal. Also, system crash at the beginning, google play crashes.

This also happened with the 5 march squid's release.

If I remove sdcard, then boot the phone, wifi works fine.

What kind of extra information should I provide?
[E 2015 Original Android Development] rahulsnair:
Latest nighlty looks ok except Live lock screen stopped working after the boot up. Everything else is smooth.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] ayush rao:
I've been using my SD Card as internal from the unofficial builds and I have never experienced such a problem. I always dirty flash over the previous build and yet I experience no issues
[E 2015 Original Android Development] :
I also dirty flash each nightly update and never have a problem (using SD as internal storage)

The google play error you describe isn't down to an SD card error, this happens if the gapps package has been incorrectly flashed.

WiFi not working sounds like a modem problem, have you updated to the 5.1 modem as advised by the dev in the original post?

Why this then works once the SD card is removed is a strange one.

Please can you advise if google play still crashes after removing SD? You don't say if it does or not?

Please advise on your gapps package, the installation procedure used and the modem/baseband you are running?
[E 2015 Original Android Development] samurairen:
Thanks. Do I need to flash the whole OS or just the GApps?

---------- Post added at 03:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:41 PM ----------

Used OpenGapps, nano version
[E 2015 Original Android Development] :
I would reflash the OS with all the wipes just to be safe, although I think someone may say you don't need too....

Rule of thumb, if I'm changing my gapps package, I always reflash the ROM with all the wipes, then I don't get any errors, and remember to flash the gapps at the same time as flashing the ROM, so select the ROM zip in twrp, then select add more zips, and select gapps and any other mods, like a custom kernel and flash before rebooting back into android.

Sorry to keep going on, people are still saying its correct to reboot into android after flashing the ROM, and then booting back to recovery to flash gapps, because they did it on other devices.

This is not correct and will produce errors.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] ZETROzky:
So, just to clarify : March 5th build with r15c. Also, where do I get the stock kernel?
[E 2015 Original Android Development] jeffrey017:
it is okay to flash this in not rooted stock 6.0 with your latest twrp?
[E 2015 Original Android Development] :
I just flashed the latest build along with OpenGapps on my Boost Mobile XT1526 and its working flawlessly. I'm having zero issues and its fast and smooth. But I've only been using it for about 30 minutes now, I'm typing this on it now with the XDA app. I'm planning on keeping cm13 instead of going back to cm12.1.

There is one bug that's still here though and that's the SD card random number bug. But its no big deal cause every app I've tried so far seems to be using the SD card as normal. I have my SD card formatted to EXT4. It works best for me on that filesystem.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] :
I understand what you are saying, so I've duly downloaded the 5.1 modem, extracted, connected my moto e to my Linux laptop, opened terminal and nothing.

ADB and fastboot not working, adb, developer options and USB debugging all switched on.

Laptop is connecting with my moto e, but I'm just getting a "waiting for device" message in terminal, and nothing happens.

I typed

ADB devices

And got back

<<no permission>>

So I typed

ADB kill-server

ADB start-server

Then i typed

ADB devices

Nothing

So i typed

Fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

I get this

<<waiting for device>>

I'll keep trying but I'll also try another ROM just to test its not something awry with this, not that I think it is, I think I've missed something somewhere :(
[E 2015 Original Android Development] rokban:
Reboot bootloader? I forgot once ;)
[E 2015 Original Android Development] :
From the bootloader or from a command? I'll try that :)

Edit

That doest work, from a command or restarting the bootloader manually, I still get

<<waiting for device>>

Thanks anyway :)
[E 2015 Original Android Development] Sher1234:
Restart your device in bootloader

Then type

fastboot devices

It will list your device

Flashed the ROM with open gapps and kernel mentioned ! Solid stuff, good to be back to cyanogen after updating to stock 6.0 . BTW is it possible to make my sdcard as internal memory ? Normally I use to get the option before I returned to stock from temasek ( also in stock I was using that feature) . but now I didn't get that option of formatting sdcard and to use it as internal memory .

---------- Post added at 05:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:53 PM ----------

That can't happen, if that happens it means you don't have proper motorola and fastboot drivers installed in your computer ,else it must show your device. I suggest you do some fresh installations.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] majster95:
Confirm, i had the same issue on my phone with 5.0 baseband, i flashed newer and works fine :)
[E 2015 Original Android Development] yelupic:

Or (for Debian derivatives like Ubuntu/Mint) try a simple

sudo su -

before adb / fastboot commands in terminal.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] :
As I said, I think something was wrong, and something I have either not done-or done something I shouldn't (silly little man)

Fresh installs to come, I'll keep you posted, thanks for taking the time to offer assistance, I think its a Motorola driver problem, although device is showing on the computer with removable storage ie:-

XT1524

Internal storage (5.2GB)

External SD (14.7GB)

I will re install drivers (my main concern) adb/fastboot and report back, but not today as I have to go to work-on a Sunday :(
[E 2015 Original Android Development] rokban:
If computer is showing your device then it's adb drivers it seems ,anyway good luck ,and sure report us here!

...this rom is awesome, device is faster than ever! all of my xposed modules & v4a work :)

i did get confused when it asked me to use the 64gb sdcard as internal memory. it didn't seem to work, and i ended up formating it as external storage, which seems to be fine as well..

what are the benefits of using it as internal memory?

thank you, sir squid2!

Thanks *SOO* much for this ROM. My experience has been great so far, though it's only been a few days.

I have just one problem - I can't get Google+ installed. The Play Store reports that it's incompatible with my phone. I have seen this on other ROMs but not found a fix other than switching to another ROM. Does anyone know what might be causing this? I flashed the Pico build of A-GApps 6.0.1_18022016_4.1.zip. I'll try another GApps package, perhaps OpenGApps and see if the problem continues.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] ElDainosor:
It's an A-GAPPS issue. Switching to OpenGApps will solve it
[E 2015 Original Android Development] PriPhaze:
¨

Yes it is possible to make the sdcard as internal. You can even switch between roms without reformat the SD Card as long as you have the last TWRP version installed.

I went from Resurrecion Remix to Blisspop and now Chyper without having to reformat and put back all my data to the sdcard.

The first time you boot the new rom it may tell you that the phone couldn't read the SD card.. that's ok just do another reboot and it will be working good ( This also happens when you flash a kernel)

Just dont abuse from it and if you gonna jump from one rom to another too often then just make sure to have a copy of everything, just to be sure and safe.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] vayavalla:

BUG1: when you launch the app Viber for the first time and enter your phone it tries to call your phone and sends you a text message with a code. CM13 immediately restarts the phone when it is about to restart the phone.

BUG2: When starting CM13 for the first time it asks for your google account details, when you enter that after a few more screens it asks for your account details again then says that the account is already set up so you then have to click "skip" twice.

gesture typing without installing gapps

Did anyone have success getting gesture typing to work without installing gapps? In cm12.1 it was possible to copy a library file to /system/lib and soft reboot and it worked. The same procedure yielded no success. Can somebody help?
[E 2015 Original Android Development] ayush rao:
I use Viber and had no problem. I'm also on the same build. I also didn't have that strange setup issue u had
[E 2015 Original Android Development] rokban:
I dont use viber so can't say on that but bug 2 which in was mentioned post #383 I didn't face while installing back cm13 after full wipe. Maybe it was temporary network glitch?
[E 2015 Original Android Development] daktary:
Hi everybody,

I tested cm13.0 on my 1524, and found some (minor) issues: the app menu settings (available by pressing the three points after long press on screen) doesn't allow horizontal scrolling of the pages like in cm12.1. The Parameters icon (wheel) on that menu leaves to the settings of the app menu, and not to the general settings of the phone like in cm12.1.

An annoying adaptation is the lack of the "Apps" section in the settings, now deep stored in the developers options. It was easy in the cm12.1 version to see the running apps and clear the processes in cache, and there was a widget to direct access to these options.

I'm now unable to kill the in use settings app by long press the back button (the option is in the developers settings). In cm12.1 it was possible to return to the home screen by killing the settings screen by this long press.

OTG-usb doesn't works in version of 4apr.

Install apk's from sd card is not possible, even with external sources selected in developers options.

Do you have also the same "issues"?
[E 2015 Original Android Development] hajj_3:
It wasn't a network glitch, i flashed cm13 3 times on 3 seperate days, this bug happened each time.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] ayush rao:
Probably it's a gapps issue, which one did u use???

Ref you installing apks from SD.......

I've done that on my own XT1524 for months, using the SD (16gb Sandisk) as portable storage. Never had that issue at all, and I'm not sure why you would have that error.

I also don't have the initial set up error you describe, maybe that could be a gapps issue (I'm not sure)

Please remember CM13 is a totally different beast to CM12.1, its like marmite, some people love it, others hate it, but we can't have an updated OS too much like the previous build, it would not be an update then, it would just be CM12.1 GTI or something silly!

Just to prove my sdcard works (I've been accused of not backing my statements up by providing proof it works) too you, take a look at these screen shots of my SD and selecting an APK file to install (proof it works!)
