Just for the sake of answering your question (that might be useful later), you have to mount the system partition before you can access it. Then you will see what is inside that partition. It is litterally impossible that you don't have a system/app folder, all prebuilt apps go there (and in system/priv-app).
[Nexus 5 Android Development] acat550:
I appreciate the quick answer! I think I will just go with the new build though lol! Been looking for a ROM that is stripped down and optimized to the fence! I have been running truesight as well so the duo is perfect!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] star_throne:
Once a week is more than enough! I'll move to this rom when i have time. One thing you could do is aroma installer, thats a whole new thing to learn but if you feel like bored or want to try something new, it would be very useful. One thing i can think of now is adding and removing apps. You could use something like Cataclysm as reference

EDIT: Do you have the TrueSight UKM thing included? Thats one more thing to add if not.

One more question, lol. Does the adb work? The cm 13 build that i currently have crashes when i turn adb on. Not sure if TrueSight causes this or what. If you havent tried it, be aware that if it does crash for you too, you probably cant turn it off anymore. That happened to me, the phone was very slow when it was in lockscreen after boot and when i tried to unlock it, it just rebooted. So take backup if you think you want to try it :P
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Nope UKM is not installed. At first I had Synapse prebuilt and UKM preinstalled (before releasing), but I had too many problems with it. It never applied my settings on reboot, plus half the time it crashed when restoring my profile. Too much trouble, and I don't use the extra settings that are not available in kernel adiutor. So, if you want it you will have to install both the app and UKM.

I just enabled adb without any problems. It also works when connected to the computer.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] star_throne:
Thanks for all the answers and hard work! :good:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] acat550:
It seems with the new build, that notification pulldown is broken. I have tried both open gapps and slim gapps, both to no avail. Any others with this problem?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Junnie:
HELP

Help Devs !! Why I can't dropdown the statusbar ?? Even I can't see quicksettings at all...this is bug ?

---------- Post added at 04:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:47 AM ----------

Same problem with me !!! Any solution ?? :((
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
That's most likely the cm and opengapps bug. Use an old gapps package for now.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Junnie:
Gapps suggestion please??? :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Try banks gapps. Maybe slimgapps too, but someone bf reported it not working...

True Kernel got updated. waiting for dark rom updates.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Just to keep you guys updated, I already have a build of my ROM with the latest TrueSight kernel, but unfortunately, for a reason yet to be identified, it doesn't boot. It gets stuck at the google logo, so I'll have to investigate what is causing that. That kind of problem is hard to fix as it's impossible to get a log of what is going on, so it might take time if I don't get lucky on the first things I try. I'll keep you guys posted, I'll work on it tonight.

Thanks for your enthusiasm ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
New build is up !

Guys,

I was lucky and got it to boot on my first try ;) I just made a few changes to some makefiles and Voila! While at it I updated mostly everything, look at the second post for a full changelog (and I might have forgotten a few things).

Hope you enjoy it !!!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] star_throne:
Thanks for the build! Had some problems with UKSM, True Sight update caused it. Or actually, it was the Synapse settings. Because when synapse applied my saved settings it messed up the UKSM, cpu usage was very high and the phone was getting hot. Deleting Synapse's data and rebooting fixed it. I didn't enable UKSM at any point, and disabling it didn't help
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Thanks for the feedback! You are right, when kernel gets updated, there might be some problems with Synapse as some features might have been added/deleted. In the case of UKSM, it was enabled by default in the previous version, and it's now disabled by default. Maybe that's why Synapse was acting up. Anyway, I'm glad you got it sorted!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] minidou-77:
You made a small typo in the changelog :this is 06/01 version and not 06/10 ☺️

Our maybe you are an alien coming from the future to provide us this wonderful ROM...

Have a problem after the update. After reboot, mobile data works for awhile, then it stops working and i get this exclamation mark in the mobile data thing on statusbar. After reboot it works again, for awhile.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
I don't have that, but I think it's a cm bug. I'll keep looking for a possible fix on their gerrit and I'll release a new build with it asap.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] star_throne:
Actually, it might be android bug or something, found some people who had had this. First i had the data problem in the morning, then it happened in school very frequently. Came back to home and rebooted my phone again, haven't happened since that. I will see if the mobile data keeps working overnight, if it doesnt, i'll do a clean flash. Could just be some of my apps or any other installed things causing the problem for some reason.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
I just had the exact same problem, so I guess it's either the biggest coincidence of all time, or there is something wrong with the ROM/kernel. I'll make a few tests and let you guys know. Any other cm based ROM with that bug ?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] minidou-77:
So did I ☺️

Maybe it's a bug with the new compiler?

I also noticed a decrease in smoothness. Anyone else?

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
I had that idea too. I'm testing the same build but with my old toolchain right now. I'll test it for a little while to see, but it might not be conclusive... I've seen other people reporting it on other rom so that would kinda rule out the toolchain bug.

Anyway, sorry about that!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] star_throne:
No problem! Its not your fault! I have been having alot of random reboots too, about every 2h. Again, i could have messed some up, or it could be bug in cm/tc. The next build im gonna clean flash, just to be safe.

And one question, completely offtopic, sorry for that. But have you ever had problems when you copied files from win 8.1/10 pc to the nexus 5? Like lets say i copy over my download folder backup, when i have that in my phone i cant access it. To be specific, no any sort of write access. Cant download files or delete the download folder or its contents. Same for DCIM, cant take photos or delete them. Tried both adb pull/push and normally drag and drop. And i have tried changing permissions and owner settings within the phone. And whats weird is that recovery can access the files, workaround for the problem is to use aromafm or twrp fm to make a copy of the folder i cant access and deleting it, thrn move the copy to right location.

Thanks for all the efforts you have put on this rom!

Edit: To be clear i have had the copying problem with both aosp and cm based MM roms. Could be Windoes issue, too.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] HermannSenator:
I can confirm that the data issue happens also in stock cm13 CAF. I'm on that ROM and having the exact same problem :(
[Nexus 5 Android Development] star_throne:
Uh oh. Did you have this rom installed before normal cm13 caf? If so, did you wipe everything? Or have you even installed this rom at any point? Btw, my problems seem to be gone. Weird. I guess we will need to go through changelogs and commits to see what broke it. Who knows if its fixed already.

---------- Post added at 08:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:14 PM ----------

Well yeah [MENTION=5445418]Dark_Eyes_[/MENTION] , go look here http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-13-nexus-5-t3241046/page152 Seems to be cm bug thats fixed in 0603. Sorry for spamming this thread.

edit: To keep you updated, data dropped again. Problem still there.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] HermannSenator:
I haven't used Dark Rom since a while. I'm using normal cm13 CAF from nyyu.tk/cm13 , and in those build, even in the latest, the bug is here. And yup, I did a clean flash yesterday with the latest build from that server :)

So I guess that this is an upstream bug :(
[Nexus 5 Android Development] star_throne:
Are you on 0603 or newer? Someone said he had drops with experience7's 0602 but havent had drops with myfluxi based 0603 from nyyu.tk?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Thank you all guys. I've had a couple data drops too since today, so it's clearly not a toolchain issue. I'll try looking at the changelog, and from what I understand it started around june 1st. I'll build with all upstream tonight and if it's good I'll push it, else I'll try to identify and revert the faulty commits.

Anybody tried the non-caf official cm since that time period? I'm thinking maybe it's a commit in the myfluxi kernel repo that ended in the truesight kernel, hence in my ROM too.

Thanks for the feedback!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] HermannSenator:
I'm using 0604 now. i haven't tried the myfluxi based ROM as I'm using the "stock" one :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] star_throne:
Well [MENTION=5983085]HermannSenator[/MENTION] said that he has the bug on "official repo" cm13 caf build too, so it cant be myfluxi kernel repo issue, can it?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Yeah I guess, I thought that nyyu.t where myfluxi based, apparently they are not all based against his repo. So it's gotta be a rom commit, but that also means it should affect other device as well...

I'll look deeper into it tonight and I'll keep you posted!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] star_throne:
Nice! Its 01:30 AM here, gotta sleep. If this doesnt get solved, ill try to get logs and see what causes my random reboots, if im lucky i might get log when the data drops. Recent myfluxi commits looked like they could have maybe caused the data bug (they were modem and telephony commits) but then the bug is on stock repo build too so they cant be what causes it
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
I don't use win 10 much, I'll try it tonight. But I have zero issues with Linux, copying both to and from the phone. So it's probably something wrong with win 10.

As for random reboots, I haven't had a single one since the start of Dark Rom, so i guess it's a particular kernel setting or an app that is causing it.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] WingXBlade:
Device won't go into deep sleep for me on the lastest build 06/0.1 It drains about 34% on idle for 3 to 4 hours and massive heat problem..

Sorry that I didn't screenshot the battery stats but Android OS seems to be the culprit..

Now reverting back to 05/27..
[Nexus 5 Android Development] joshuas_79:
I had a couple of reboots too in the last 24h...in case any body wants to know. I never had them with this rom until now. Maybe I try to flash the previous build. I think it could be kernel related. I got the first reboot after flashing the latest version of the kernel over previous dark rom build
[Nexus 5 Android Development] cetorr:
I don't have any reboots or battery drains. Must be some app or setting. This rom rocks!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Just to keep you guys posted. I'm testing a new build with all cm upstream and the data hasn't drop yet. If it's still good tonight I'll push this build and remove the 06/01 from the server.

As for random reboots, please try to use bfq scheduler. It's one of the biggest change in the latest truesight, and I don't use zen. Maybe that's why it's been stable for me but not for everybody. You could change gov to interactive too, I personally prefer it over ondemand, but I really doubt ondemand is the culprit.

Also, I suggest you toggle UKSM on and off (saving between each), just to make sure it's not conflicting, since it is now off by default. You can use it if you like, just do this little trick to make sure it's OK.

Thanks for the feedback guys, it helps making the rom better!

EDIT: and I don't have any issues with file transfer on win10. Connects and transfers just fine both to and from the phone.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] star_throne:
Havent had drops either, weird. Btw, do you have the 1024 KB read ahead? I had it as default after update and imo its little too high. 256 should be good. And for (U)KSM, no one should really have it enabled. I dont see the point of using it on Nexus 5, haven't ever had my phone going full on ram. KSM is useful on low end phones, like my old LG L5 that had 512mb ram, but on N5 its just draining battery for no reason. And now in the middle of writing this, I THINK I FOUND WHEN IT DROPS THE DATA. Sorry for caps. Switching between 2G made it get stuck for a little but not "permanently", got data back after few mins. But it didnt go back to 3G even tho i enabled 3G in settings and waited. Then when i had had it for awhile in 2G, i forced it to go 3G with *#*#4636#*# info menu, i had H+ in the signal cluster AND exclamation mark. But then the mark was again gone in few mins.

That hasnt happened me earlier, and i do sometimes switch between 2g and 3g pretty frequently, to save battery. Think the bug triggers when network mode changes somehow, or the signal is bad (even for a sec).

[Nexus 5 Android Development] alsheron:
Just wanted to chime in (with others mentioning issues) that since the last update (06/01) I've been having pretty major performance and battery life issues with the ROM.

Performance wise, I'm finding that the phone is hanging very often during multitasking and often just scrolling through an app and for up to 10 seconds at a time with the screen "frozen" and any animations stuttery. It's particularly bad in the camera app after having just taken a picture. Bad battery life is obviously a side effect of these issues. Rebooting seems to temporarily resolve the issues with things smooth again but then it seems to revert again within I'd guess 20 minutes or so (time is a complete guess here).

Previous to that at one point (05/20 I think! - I should have made a nandroid!) I was getting spectacular battery life (I actually couldn't quite believe how slowly it was going down and I've had my phone since launch) and no other real issues with snappy and reponkasive performance. I was about to wipe and flash that but am wondering if it would help if I provide some logs etc? If so, how would I go about it? I'm savvy enough to follow most instructions and would be more than happy to help.

Kernel Settings away from default:

CPU multi power saving: Enabled

CPU Governor: Interactive (all cores)

Hotplug: Off for all

I/O: 1024kb ROW

Sound: Handset Microphone: 0 (having very weird response from phone when saying "Ok Google" with it stuttering and not "hearing" my commands correctly where with other ROMs was fine I suspect an issue with FauxSound or otherwise the Kernel sound implementation is problematic somehow so set this to 0 to help which it seems to but only slightly i.e OK Google detection and processing still stuttery and not really useable)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] star_throne:
If you use Synapse, try doing this: clear synapse app data and then make sure apply settings on boot is off, then reboot and set your settings back.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] alsheron:
Thanks I'll give this a try.

EDIT: Did exactly as advised and I have to say, everything back to being much much smoother. No jittery UI or animations when multitasking and no "freezing" for seconds at a time. No idea why Synapse would have caused these issues (I haven't yet set back my settings) but I do wish the dev of Synapse would update it to be less buggy at least given how important it's role is and possibly even a fresher UI. Either that or are there any other kernel control apps that can manage the range of settings Synapse can?

Anyway - thanks for the advice it worked brilliantly and my phone is working normally again!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] star_throne:
No problem, the problem is that TrueSight kernel got much stuff changed in the update, and when Synapse applies the old settings it somehow messes it up. (Like UKSM got disabled in the update and some stuff got removed and added)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] alsheron:
Oh I see. Well that makes sense and is interesting to know. I haven't yet changed the kernel settings with synapse yet (testing stability with Amplify and Greenify enabled) but will do now. Battery life is improved but with a few kernel tweaks hopefully I can get it back to being hard to believe (good)!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Guys,

I'm getting more and more convinced that the data bug is something that affects only my ROM. I've built one with allCM upstream and it still has that bug. I don't see other people reporting that in other CM13 based ROM. So, it has to be something on my side, which is why I'll build a new one with GCC 5.3 for both ROM and KERNEL. I will test it a couple of days and if it's good I'll push it.

For now, what seems to work (at least for the moment), is to flash TrueSight v2.3 on top of my latest build. I didn't get a data drop yet, so that's why I think my toolchain screwed something up.

Keep me posted on how it goes !

Thanks !!!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] star_throne:
Will be hard to test as my data is not dropping too often. Messing around with zAnti once made it drop, turning wifi on off and switch between 2G and 3G. Ill start

---------- Post added at 08:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:14 AM ----------

Actually, how do you make it install kernel and the rom? Do you kinda add the kernel when building the rom? So when its built it has the kernel included. Think it goes like that. If installing kernel afterwards works, maybe you could build rom and kernel separately and then extract rom zip, paste the kernel somwhere in the zip and add a script that installs it, then just repack. That could be automated with scripts (on linux). Kinda hacky, though. And one thing i noticed, is that someone said in True Sight thread that he has the data issue and dev said its a cm bug.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
To answer your question, I sync the source of TrueSight kernel, then I change a few things (add bfq scheduler and change some compilation flags) and I have it built along the ROM. I'm not using a prebuilt kernel made by lol4topnz. What you say is true, I could use the prebuilt kernel in the ROM, or even replace the one I built with the one from lol4topnz in the zip and repack it. That would be a bit of trouble and that way I can't change anything. So I prefer building it myself, but if that makes it unstable I will use the prebuilt one.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Vidicgapi:
Download link doesn't work.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] star_throne:
Well, im not 100% sure but i think i got data drop after messing around with zAnti, i disconnected wifi and the phone rebooted, and i did see exclamation mark in data signal cluster. And this is after i flashed kernel on top. Its hard to tell if the data drop bug is there because it doesnt drop as often as it did few days back. Dont know if we have the bluetooth bug too but experience7 said in his CM 13 CAF thread that he got it solved, it had something to do with blobs

Was this included in the builds that have data drops? https://github.com/TheMuppets/proprietary_vendor_lge/pull/184 I cant really tell because its /TheMuppets and not /CyanogenMod. Experience7 closed that pull request because it caused some problems i think.

---------- Post added at 04:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:27 PM ----------

Works fine for me
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Do we have the Bluetooth problem? I'm using kylon's blobs that are about a month old (may security patch). I'll merge the June one later, but I haven't changed anything vendor wise for a while.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] star_throne:
Think we dont have that, some other caf roms do/did have. They were using the newer blobs afaik

edit: well maybe if the problem is in the True Sight kernel, even though the dev says its a cm problem that the team needs to fix?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Vidicgapi:
Ok, now it works. Thanks anyway.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] star_throne:
Well i have a little plan. If no one has proved that clean flashing doesnt help, lets try that first. If there is no any change, then i thought that what if you try to build with TrueSight 2.2? And then try to clean flash that. If TrueSight 2.2 with exact same flags and other things works without problems, it cant be other than kernel problem. Though, i tried to go through TrueSight commits and see what could have broken the data but couldnt really find anything.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Vidicgapi:
I'm running the latest Jun 1 build and I have a problem with quick toggles. I can only pull down to notifications but not to quick toggles. Does anybody know how to fix this?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
That sounds like the old bug with cm13 and opengapps. Try using an up to date gapps packages and don't delete cmsetupwizard.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
New build is up

Guys,

I've been testing my ROM with prebuilt TrueSight and I didn't have any data drops. So I thought it might be my building setup and decided to build the ROM and KERNEL with GCC 5.3 toolchain to avoid problems that can arise with newest toolchains. I've been testing it today and it seemed to be good (although I can't guarantee the problem is fixed).

Please test it and report any issues you may have concerning 1 ) data drops and 2) bluetooth issues.

Thanks for using my ROM guys !

Enjoy !!!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] star_throne:
Nice! Will do a clean flash just to be sure, hope the data drops are gone now :good:

edit edit edit!: I just read the CM13 CAF thread, this is what experience7 said:

So yeah. Hope that the SystemUI thing is the thing that broke it and we dont have to hunt for it anymore. And this one guy said that he had data drops and bluetooth problems with nyyu.tk stock build, so its not specific to your builds.

New build is up

Guys,

sorry to release a second version in such a short period. I decided to pull the 06/07 version from the server as it added (almost) nothing new over the 06/01 version, and the data bug wasn't fixed. I also decided to build a new one with the June security patch and TrueSight 2.4 in, so this update is much more significant than the last one. See second post for the full changelog.

Hopefully the data bug is fixed now. Please report how it goes ;)

Enjoy !!!
