Final Marshmallow Krexus OMS build!

This is an OMS - Substratum ROM. Layers Manager and layers overlays will not work with the 09.03.16 Krexus.

"Hello guys, it's been a while :) Today, I released the (hopefully) final marshmallow version of Krexus, and boy does it want to go out with a bang. Besides August updates, OMS+Marquerade are finally here and Krexus got some ParanoidAndroid love (the good kind :P). I managed to port the great Quick tiles rework (which looks much alike the newly released Nougat quick tiles) and the full battery circle (without deviating with extra animations or removing the other circle, everything is in there)! I tested it a lot and didn't find anything problematic, so SystemUI tuner took the boot.

Also, check this video, besides the screenshots, if you don't know what I'm talking about: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfDSzJzpKj0

Besides that, the changelog github is will be updated to depict every other possible change."

Great ROM.But it charges very slow and the charger got too hot.Should I flash in another kernel?
[Nexus 9 Android Development] buffal0b1ll:
As far as charger heat goes, I've never noticed this. For slow charging...You may have the same charging bug I do that affects a minority of devices. The device charges but the real time battery percentage lags behind in the status bar, but it really is charging. If you unplug and replug the charger a few times and see the percent go up by 3 percent increments then you have the bug too. FIREICE kernel has historically been the best solution to fixing this. Sometimes I flash FIREICE to get the battery healthd fix and then ElementalX right after, when I want to run EX.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] Darkouting:
I tried to flash in Fire-Ice ...Do I have to re-root my device after flashing a kernel? I often meet wierd problems when flashing kernels. Do I have to do a factory reset?

BTW if I flashed from FireIce to ElementalX will the battery status get weird again?
[Nexus 9 Android Development] buffal0b1ll:
Do I have to re-root my device after flashing a kernel? Depends on the kernel. Did you lose root? It's not a bad idea to flash SuperSU or superuser after the custom kernel(s) because root writes to the kernel's ramdisk.

Do I have to do a factory reset? No

BTW if I flashed from FireIce to ElementalX will the battery status get weird again? This varies from month to month and kernel version to kernel version. In theory, flashing FIREICE writes the healthd battery patches to the ramdisk, then EX backs up and restores these healthd ramdisk patches when you flash EX after FIREICE.

Whenever I clean flash a ROM on flounder I flash all at once in this order:

ROM

Dynamic Gapps

FIREICE

EX

superuser
[Nexus 9 Android Development] Darkouting:
Thanks a lot.. I tried that order and it didn't work...

The battery status cannot show the "real" status, when I reboot, it rised a lot.

Maybe I have to wait for a fix or something :(
[Nexus 9 Android Development] buffal0b1ll:
Try FIREICE if you want to. It may show the right real time percentage. Then try older versions of FireIce if current version has the issue. I use EX and I don't stress over the percent because I know it's charging. This is a really old bug that only affects a few Nexus 9s. Stock aosp Kernel from Google has the issue on affected devices too. Its always at 100 when I pull off the charger​ in the morning, so I just make like Elsa. I used to try each monthly update to find the Kernel that didn't have the bug and I'd usually find one, but i don't bother anymore.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] gdcrry:
I'm having the same issue. The battery stay at 61% when actually full charged. It will increase by 3% every time after unplugging and replugging the wire. There seems has nothing to do with the kernel since I changed the kernel from ROM stock to elementalX then to fire-ice but didn't fix it.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] dictionary:
It's more work, but unless you backed up stock ROM boot, you'll likely have to dirty flash things, then try again. Personally I'd clean flash. Don't think I'd had an issue after the first one or two cycles.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] albsat:
Sorry to ask, because I am on another rom.

Does this rom has circle battery percentage option ⭕ and system ui tuner?
[Nexus 9 Android Development] dictionary:
Yes
[Nexus 9 Android Development] gdcrry:
I did dirty flash before changing the kernel. Still don't know how exactly this happens, but (4.3-3.2)/(5-3.2)=61.1%. notice that 4.3V is the voltage when full charged and 3.2V is when battery runs off. I think device may get the wrong voltage of the battery during charging with 5V/2a. What would cause this by the way?

[Nexus 9 Android Development] enriquejones666:
Hey buffal0b1ll, would you recommend​ I switch to your PureNexus ROM if I want monthly updates?

I realize you build a bunch of ROMs, so I'm just trying to get a feel for which are your most active ROMs.

I will say, this Krexus ROM is quite good, so Im happy to stick with it for awhile longer.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] buffal0b1ll:
Pure has been getting regular monthly updates, yes. I build whenever sources update for the ROMs I maintain. There's never a guarantee that this build won't be the last on any ROM, especially now that flounder is no longer receiving OS updates from Google, but as long as I have the time and the device and kernel trees will still build and boot then I'll keep at it.

As for your decision....

Krexus is "stock as it should be" for purists. Pure is feature rich and wide-spread. The choice is yours.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] CutGlass:
What would that mean in slightly more detail? Is Pure, AOSP with the google app updates, assistant, built in weather etc... and is Krexus stock AOSP with minimal extras? "as it should be" is a subjective (no insult intended), I'm a minimal kind of guy, using my nexus for little surfing but running up to 7 different accounts for a game when clan members are on holiday etc... so small is good and I have a phone running lineage for a more feature rich thing and also so I can be on more than one account at the same time if I have to fill a castle with defence troops and not log off the Nexus. (The game I play you can set it on one device to have multiple google play accounts but switching between them is lengthy compared to have different user accounts). I think possibly the only extra real requirement I need on the tablet is that the camera works for the occasional hangouts or skype call.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] buffal0b1ll:
"Stock as it should be" is the motto of Krexus. Explained in detail in OP.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] CutGlass:
Yes I did read the OP but since I've never owned a Nexus 5, in this thread (at least) it's difficult to tell what your interpretation of stock is, and the difference between krexus and pure nexus. The there's the labelling of the thread as Substratum, a more recent sony innovation I believe and yet "stock" doesn't have a theme engine. So I hope you can understand my confusion and a desire for an actual feature list with what you added to create

I have AOSP on a grouper, I could always install Krexus on my Nexus 9 and attempt to spot the differences and compile a list if it would help.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] buffal0b1ll:
Flash it and see if you like it. That's what nandroids are for.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gadget_boy:
Hi All,

My G2 has developed a weird problem where the keyboard randomly disappears and you can't exit out of whatever app you are in by using the back key. I'm using Nova launcher which shows the dock icons correctly but when I use the stock home launcher it shows the dock icons as HUGE! I've already done a factory reset but the problem returns after a day or so. I have changed the DPI to 400 from but even when I change it lower or higher the dock icons remain the same.

I'm running cloudy G2 ROM 4.4.2.

Check out the screenshot......

Any help appreciated!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jan Philipp:
Have you changed the dpi? Cloudy has some issues when you change the default dpi. Some apps don't use the extra space and that results in black borders. As last option reset CloudyRom or do a clean flash. Good luck!

I was having a problem with making phone calls where I could only make a call with Enhanced LTE enabled. Otherwise it wouldn't dial out. I tried multiple ROMs and radio versions.

So in case anyone else was having this issue...

Eventually, I played with the settings...

*#*#4636#*#*

Clicked 3-dot menu on top-right

Select Radio Band

Select "USA Band".

I then noticed when I made calls, the LTE would switch to HSPA+ and the call would dial out.

So it seems that before, the phone was staying on the LTE band and voice data wasnt working.

I got a new Motherboard and daughterboard in my HDX Apollo. I was able to get TWRP on it, but it keeps saying i dont appear to have root. I tried installing the latest supersu but it apparently didnt work. Anyway, i have realized that i just keep getting myself into trouble playing with root. All i want is to get my 3rd gen back to 4.5.5.1 fire os and wait for the fire os 5 update for it(hopefully) Any help on how i can do that? Ive tried downloading the latest Kindle update for apollo, renaming the .bin to update.zip and transferring it over and installing it but it never boots further than the 'kindle' screen.

Thanks for your help, sorry to be a pain
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Cl4ncy:
If you're on Fire OS 4.x you don't have TWRP, but Safestrap v4. After what you've done, do you still have access to Safestrap? Installing an amazon update with Safestrap installed, or even just rooted could easily mess up the device, i.e. brick it.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] mhuck0625:
I don't think it's fire os 4x then. It does boot into the twrp interface and is fully functional but when you go to reboot into a different recovery it says something like "it appears you do not have root. Would you like to install supersu?" Even if I say yes it acts like it installs but apparently doesn't. I can post pics later
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] mhuck0625:
Oh and I'm not sure what the new board had on it. It never fully booted. That's why I installed twrp. Thanks for the reply though!
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
- how did you "install" TWRP (method)?

- how are you accessing TWRP - just pressing the power button or some key combination (yes, it's important)?

- does a graphic vaguely resembling Frankenstein appear when you power up the device?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] mhuck0625:
I installed TWRP using the method instructed here: http://xdaforums.com/kindle-fire-hdx/general/how-to-unbrick-kindle-fire-hdx-firmware-t3277197

When i want to get to TWRP i press and hold Power + Vol UP until it rebootes into the Teamwin screen and TWRP. It is version 2.8.7.0 now(the instructions got 2.8.5.0 installed then i upgraded)

I dont remember what the graphic looked like when booting into TWRP but i know it said TeamWin. I can check when i get it charged back up enough to turn on. Ive had it sitting unplugged for days and the battery ran dead. I hope this is enough info to help get me pointed in the right direction. Thanks!
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Cl4ncy:
Ok, if it's the real TWRP which it seems to be, Safestrap has no TeamWin logo at boot, I'd suggest you leave it be. Currently you can use all available ROMs, so if there'll be a future version of Fire OS you could use a TWRP flashable version of it. I doubt there will be a Fire OS 5 update for the "old" Thor/Apollo line though.

You would destroy the possibilities you currently have by updating to Fire OS 4.5.5.1.

Meanwhile you can unlock your bootloader (if you haven't already), and update TWRP to 3.0.0-1 (requires unlocked bootloader).
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] mhuck0625:
Don't I need root though? How can I unlock my bootloader from the stage I'm at now? I'm just a bit afraid of proceeding in case I brick it again
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Cl4ncy:
There's no risk in unlocking, the bootloader either unlocks or it errors/fails. Try the one-click-solution first (might require the PDANet drivers). It's recommended to update the bootloader to 3.2.3.2 (do it only, if the unlock worked ok).

TWRP can be updated from TWRP itself, so I'd recommend doing it that way. Just be sure to flash the TWRP image to the recovery partition. ;)

Where should i go from here?

Thanks
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Root is irrelevant at this stage as nothing has been flashed to the system partition (where ROMs live).
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] mhuck0625:
Ok, so i will need root to install ROMs then? How do i solve my problem unlocking the bootloader?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Lack of a functioning ROM could prove problematic if ADB is not enabled. I do not recall if the version of TWRP you installed provides native support for MTP which is essential for moving files onto the device. You may need to go the manual route to unlock bootloader which still requires tethered access but only at the fastboot level.

Just curious on one thing. Whenever i see a ROM to download it says i need to unlock the bootloader and have root before i can do that. In MY case i do NOT have either, yet i was able to flash a new recovery(TWRP) How is this possible? How would i go about installing a new ROM or unlocking the bootloader?

Is there a way to flash the stock recovery back so i can reinstall fireOS and start from scratch?

Is there a way to tell what bootloader i have from within TWRP?

I realize i probably should have done a little more reading before i started messing with it :/ I do appreciate all the help you have been able to provide so far!

- traveling; response will be brief

- suggest flashing cm11 as it does not require an unlocked bootloader nor GAaps for basic functionality

- include SuperSU in flash package to secure root

- follow flashing directions in cm11 OP

Went to Install, saw both Zip files. Selected them(CM11 first, then Supersu second) Swipe to install, rebooted and nothing came up. Rebooted into TWRP and repeated the process after wiping dalvik/cache. Still nothing :(
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Makes sense. Likely no kernel. Will probably need to install a full version of FireOS for underlying components. Need to have a think about which build to maximize results, minimize rework. More later....
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] mhuck0625:
You have no idea how much i appreciate the help!

I look forward to hearing what you come up with!!

I would be happy just going straight back to full fire os - Stock EVERYTHING and not even worrying about running another OS. I just want to have a usable tablet again! :)
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
If you are happy with FireOS there is a path to restore your device to the latest stock version. It is a multi-step process that would ultimately disable the ability to unlock the bootloader and run more recent/advanced ROMS. You will still retain the option of running older custom ROMS (CM11 or Nexus v4) should you tire of Amazon's restrictions and lack of access to the Play Store. Note: Google Play Services and FireOS v4 don't play nice together; you can not easily install the Play Store should you decide to stick with FireOS.

Regardless of final choice the first step is to restore FireOS 14.3.1.0 which can either be updated to the latest version (14.4.5.5.1) or used as starting point to unlock the bootloader. However, the

operation is risky

and you only get one shot at it.

If the device fails to boot/restart you effectively own a soft brick

. Also note TWRP will be replaced with Amazon's stock recovery during the update which at present is the only functional environment on the device. For completeness the bootloader and kernel will also be installed/replaced.

The OS image you need is located here. Pay careful attention to version and devices type. Move the file to the root of SD card. Location is important.

Flash the image file in TWRP as you did with CM11. All partitions except "Internal Storage" should be wiped prior to flashing FireOS (Dalvik, Data, Cache, System). Do not include SuperSU; rooting will occur later.

If successful your device should boot into FireOS. Skip the initialization and keep WiFi off to prevent and unexpected/unwanted OTA update.

Before doing anything I would let this post sit for 48 hours for others to comment. I would welcome thoughts from [MENTION=5749760]ggow[/MENTION], [MENTION=5594063]ONYXis[/MENTION], [MENTION=5828306]draxie[/MENTION] and anyone else experienced in this area (see first post in thread for background).

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] mhuck0625:
I COMPLETELY understand the risks(ive already soft bricked once-which is why i had to order a new Mother/Daughterboard) I will let this thread sit though and see if they offer any thoughts or ideas. My only question is how do i know which one to download?

I know i need the apollo version, but since this is a board i ordered off Ebay i dont know what its original firmware was. Is it safer to just go directly to the latest? Will that kill anything? Im ok with just using FireOS. Most apps i use are in the amazon store and others i can sideload. I just want to go the safest route possible to get a working tablet again.

Thanks again though for your help!! You are greatly underestimating yourself though! You offered some great advice and have a MUCH better idea of what you are doing than i do haha. So thanks again!

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] ggow:
By using draxie's upHDX script you can make a twrp flashable stock 4.5.5.1 zip. Then you can block updates and retain root access. Also you will retain the ability to flash any other ROM via twrp (I know you said you wouldn't but there might most probably come a time when you will regret what you intend to do).
