1. You need to flash the vendor image from the factory image MHC19Q. Get used to it since it isn't going away. If you need that image separately, it is available on my AFH (linked in my signature).

2. Use an app like Kernel Adiutor or the EX Kernel Manager.

3. You can, go into the Smartbar settings, toggle the editor, long press on the icon and choose actions. You should get long press and double tap action options.

4. Works fine for me, did you activate it in the Google app settings?

5. That's up to Josh.

6. No, that's normal, just ignore it. It's built into the bootloader so it can't be removed.

7. Keeps the screen awake for that amount of time without modifying your screen timeout time. Screen recording is in the power menu, I doubt they will add a tile for it.

Just a heads up, you'll want to do a lot of reading here. Josh (NYCHitman1) is a fantastic developer but you will have to put in some effort to be successful here. I would suggest giving the stickies in the general forum a read since they go over some of this information a little more in depth and are perfect for people who are new to the phone. Another thing is any time you have a major bug or feature request, take it to their Jira so that it gets looked at properly (links for that are in the OP, which is another fantastic read). Welcome aboard :)

Edit: sigh type out a long post and he already beat me :(

[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] AndroidDeveloperLB:
1. I don't understand. Earlier this week I've flashed RR rom and I didn't see this dialog. Why here it's different?

Is it something I need to do only once? Or will I have to do it for each time I flash a new version of the rom?

What is this image? Something of Google itself? Where in your signature you have it? I don't even know how it's called...

2. Actually I had "Kernel Adiutor" on RR, and the double-tap-to-wake worked only half of the times. About "Ex kernel manager", isn't it what I tried here? I've flashed "ElementalX" kernel...

3. ohhh.... so this is what this option does... Cool!

4. What is there to activate? It's supposed to show the animation even if I disable it, no? I didn't do anything... I've even tried what you wrote on #3 to show it.

5. ok. I hope it will be added (as an option of course).

6. ok

7. nice.Thanks.

8. Is there maybe a way to wake/unlock the screen using ANY fingerprint ? This could be even better than double tap on screen.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] dml1851:
1. Read the threads in general section, I'm sure its full of explanations about what is and what you have to do with a vendor image. In short you should flash vendor.img every time the aosp base updates to a new version (from mhc19j to mhc19q for examlle). However if you don't flash it you won't have any problems, just the message on boot.

2. It is clearly said dev doesn't support third part kernels or mods, so go to elementalX thread to complain about

I guess my answers aren't good enough for some people :confused:
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] petow:
I just clean installed the 4/7 build coming from the 3/1 stable build. Everything (opening apps, typing, scrolling etc.) just seems slower and not as snappy. The 3/1 build was awesome and super snappy for me. I do have the latest vendor flashed. Should I just try another clean install?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
Things have only gotten more snappy, actually.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] petow:
I guess I'll do another clean install. If it's gotten snappier, I can't wait to try it out. This ROM is my all time favorite and I've tried plenty since that original Motorola droid. Thanks for the great work man.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
Might have been a funky DL of either the ROM or gapps, so consider re-downloading if that's an option for you.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] drnizeguy:
Since last update I have problems with the app Adaway. For some reason the host file get cleared and the adds are back. This is without a reboot nor after a shutdown.

Is there something changed in the ROM that does this?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
Nothing has changed that would affect that.

[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] rogiebear07:
I clean flashed the latest version and flashed the new vendor.img, but I'm still getting the warning at boot. I'm not sure why this is coming up. I've reflashed the vendor and even the new radio.img, but I've had no success. Any ideas?

I'm also noticing that Adaway is not staying enabled after reboot. Is this related to the ROM (or maybe the vendor error?)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] joetheshmo:
With regards to adaway, read the post above yours. The radio didn't change so no need to flash it. Which vendor did you flash and how did you flash it?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] rogiebear07:
I tried both the vendor.img linked by [MENTION=2489052]NYCHitman1[/MENTION] and the one from the factory image. Once downloaded, I used the terminal:

"fastboot flash vendor vendor.img"
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] joetheshmo:
And you placed the vendor from factory image/NYCHitman1 in your fastboot folder?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
You can flash the vendor.img in recovery too if you're on the latest TWRP image.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Zackptg5:
[MENTION=2489052]NYCHitman1[/MENTION]

Any thoughts on adding open delta updater for this rom? I've used it on exodus roms in the past and it makes updating incredibly quick and easy. Seems like it'd be handy for roms that have weekly updates like this one
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] rogiebear07:
Tried doing it that way and flashing from the fastboot folder as [MENTION=7037416]joetheshmo[/MENTION] described. No luck.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
We have no plans to implement anything of that sort right now.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
What do you mean no luck? It's a pretty simple process. As long as you have the right file, it works.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] rogiebear07:
I had the right file, but both ways of flashing it didn't eliminate the message.

However, flashing this build.prop fix did the trick: http://xdaforums.com/nexus-9/development/fix-build-prop-variety-fix-aka-contact-t3133347

Thanks for the help.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
The message isn't an error. It's just a warning. What it truly means is that the /system build.prop fingerprint does not match the /vendor build.prop fingerprint. That's literally all it is.

If you're continually getting the message, you aren't on the same vendor.img as what was built upon. In this case, MHC19Q, which I had linked in a previous post.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] shindiggity:
I flashed in TWRP with 3.0.1, worked fine.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Zackptg5:
Still a little confused on the difference here. So are official builds like "monthlies"? If the weeklies are as stable and workable as the official builds, then why not just label the weeklies as official? Sorry for bothering you with semantics, just not sure whether I should flash the newest weekly or official build.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] nathanchance:
The official builds are what bump the version number, like from 10.0 to 10.1. That's all it is, semantics. Flash the latest build, whether it be a weekly or official build.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Zackptg5:
Aha! that makes since. I'll be flashing the latest weekly then. Thanks
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] SlimSnoopOS:
Latest weekly is running just fine for me, clean flash and all that jazz. I've been running it for a few hours. Thanks for the update [MENTION=2489052]NYCHitman1[/MENTION]
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] dryspuri:
Can we have the latest kernel settings on KA
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] lol0:
Silly question but how would I update it without losing my datadata. Do I just reflash it with the updated version or do I have to format data, system, cache etc
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] nathanchance:
Just flash the newest ROM zip and reboot (you can wipe cache and dalvik if you want). Just do a clean flash before reporting any problems. Also note you must be on a weekly or official build after 3/25 to dirty flash; anything before, you must clean flash
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] lol0:
Thanks. Sadly I don't think so, I'm on v10. 0 official March 1 2016 I'll just clean flash but it will still keep my files and apps right? Just want to make sure
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] nathanchance:
You should keep your files that are in your /sdcard folder (the internal storage) but your apps and their data will be gone when you wipe the data partition. You can use an app like Titanium Backup to help with the restore process.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] gdskp:
Battery light doesn't work after reboot. I have changed it to yellow while charging and none if charged.

And by using swipe gesture in Nova Launcher, quick setting cannot be pulled down. I have used many other ROM and it works.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] TheeWolf:
I thought restoring apps with Titanium causes a lot of problems?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] koax88:
Ive got nothing to complain :) rom is smooth and stable so far.

Latest DU + stock kernel + stock settings

Mostly using fb apps,mangarock,alot of whatsapp and some youtube.

Thanks for this great rom.

I tried with custom target host but seems not working. why is custom? any help?

I also observed that brightness is high on phone unlock coming back from stand by and then settle slowly at lower brightness. it never happened on stock. I don't know if it's just a particular use case.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] joetheshmo:
Search this thread for adaway

I don't know what you're taking about the brightness. Everything is fine for me in that department
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] MaLiXs:

I do my homework, and I know my way around flashing and basic trouble shooting. I have read this tread multiple times. when I was on the last stable release i tried a cpl versions of viper and they always seemed to install but had no effect on my audio... I'd be willing to flash DU again since I just clean flashed PN but I don't see and thing that leads me to believe I won't have problems again...

Animosity? There's literally been zero of that. The only thing that I've stated is that issues in relation to V4A are not supported by us.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] SlimSnoopOS:
I do not have either problem. I have rebooted multiple times and my battery light works every time for red. I also have exclusively use Nova Launcher Prime and swipe down gesture for Quick Setting. It's slow but that's intentional. I will admit, I am using Franco r7 kernel on DU Weekly 04/08. Wanted to finally try this kernel out.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] scumfromohio:
How do I flash this if I'm on a 6.0 ROM if someone could post links to update to the new vendor image I'd be greatly appreciative. I've been searching and following dead links all night!
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] nathanchance:
Just how you would normally clean flash a ROM. Flash the MHC19Q vendor image (link how to do that in my signature), wipe everything but internal storage in TWRP, then flash ROM and GApps. There is a guide in the general section I believe that walks you through that as well.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] lol0:
On version 10.1 battery life lasts longer while phone is on rather than it being off.

Don't know why but all I can say is the mobile signal takes 35% of my battery in 1 hour and a bit to 2 hours. While having my screen on with WiFi for 1 hour and a bit it goes from 75 to 70prrcent. The brightness is on 50% as well. I'm so confused.

Are you guys aware of this or is it just me? My guess is that when the phones display is off it constantly searches for signal even when it has signal?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
No issues here. I had my Bully off for a little over a week fully charged and it didn't even drop 1%.

The only thing I can think of is that you're on an older radio, which is causing slightly more drain.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] raulongo:
Dirty-updated to the lastes TEST version, phone boots but anything happens after the DU logo.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] nathanchance:
1. Test builds aren't to be talked about on XDA.

2. You can't dirty flash between weekly/official builds and test builds any more. You must clean flash.

If you have any more issues after a clean flash, take it to the Google+ post announcing the build.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] lol0:
That's it! Where do I download the new radio, could you link me? I forgot to flash it..

If your phone is unusable on stock you basically have no reason not to try this ROM. IMO this ROM flies and has great battery.

If you were going to take the time to reply and add a smartass remark like "try it and find out" you could just have easily have said "its performs much faster than stock", you know, if you were going to take the time anyway.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
This is a development thread. Not a friendship thread. Feel free to see your way out of it if you don't like how I responded to you. If you weren't being so lazy, you wouldn't have even needed to ask because COUNTLESS people have indicated how fast the ROM is on various pages throughout the thread.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] briandresstoyota:
see? another reply that took you some time to post. "if you dont have anything nice to say dont say anything" not becuase it hurts my feelings but because you look like an idiot for wasting your time.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] dml1851:
Chill out, everyone wastes their time in what they want to, even answering to people who makes questions with difficultly polite answers.

For future reference, if you want to know how a ROM feels or behave, try it yourself, or at least read a few pages of the thread
