Why use spyware/adware when there much better (and much more efficient, as in faster and lighter), alternatives, which are completely free, and without ads?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] chopoLet:
Well, it did the job for me and I can just uninstall the app afterwards. :p and redownload it again whenever I need it again. I have no intention on keeping it.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] moriel5:
Nevertheless, it'll be much faster and cleaner to use something like Amaze, AnExplorer, or my personal favorite, MiXplorer.

My power menu just stops working after some time, can only lock the device and unlock with power-button, anyone else experiencing this, can fix it with reboot, no themes or anything installed
[Nexus 4 Android Development] xda-dvlprs:
+1

sometimes I press power button and not show power menu for reboot if my nexus 4's on time is too long. When it reboot, it gets out of the way.

For long life power button I suggest you : Use screen on/off app and nitrogen's gestures by double tap to lockscreen for screen off.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] chopoLet:
I actually tried the new sdk25 exposed for nougat. I successfully installed it with out any problem but at some point there are too many FC's and one time I got bootloop when I installed 1 greenify module. It's not really stable and too buggy atm.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] TundraLK520:
Rovo has said the same that without proper compiling it will crash that's why his method is rom integration not this flashing on system. But since nitin has said no we will not get it with nitrogen. I hope someone makes a rom that has xposed embedded into it.

Method to pass SafetyNet

First I would like to thank the dev for the absolutely amazing rom. By far my favorite for my aging Nexus 4!

Like many people, I had issues passing the SafetyNet Check with Nitrogen OS. I have found a method that works for me and hopefully will help others.

Downloads:

1. Latest Nitrogen OS ROM [From OP]

2. Nitrogen Unroot zip [From OP]

3. UnSU [Search xda]

4. Latest Pico GApps

5 Latest Magisk zip

6. N-SINAI-N4-mako-15-07-2017.zip [AFH]

7. Universal SafetyNet Fix module

After many attempts to retain my apps and data, these were my steps:

Boot to TWRP

Wipe cache, dalvik cache, and system partitions

Flashed in this order:

Rom Zip

Unroot Zip

unSU zip

GApps

Magisk zip

SafetyNet Fix zip

At this point I booted and it would not pass the check.

I subsequently booted back to TWRP, wiped cache and dalvik, flashed the N-SINAI-N4-mako-15-07-2017.zip and upon reboot, I was able to pass (see screenshots)

Hope this helps someone in the same situation!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] TundraLK520:
How is the battery life with Sinai kernel and is it stable, i read the thread and there is always talk of system reboot.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] MWLao:
Stable so far. Haven't had any random reboots and seems good with battery life but it has only been a few hours so I can't give an accurate assessment yet.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] chopoLet:
Thanks man. I'm gonna try this method. Anyway I have 1 question, SINAI don't give you problem or anything? Because I was backreading the SINAI OP and ppl complains about bugs here and there.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] xvko:
file manager sharing option

I'm not able to send selected multiple files through File Manager and send it through Bluetooth, it goes straight to my messaging app (without giving me a choice). Does not appear a set of choice as it does, while doing the same thing through Gallery (sharing through all sorts of apps, Bluetooth, etc). Can you reproduce the same problem or am I missing some troubleshooting info?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] MWLao:
Been running with the kernel now for about 8-12 hours now and haven't had any problems.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] doragasu:
Does this rom support NoGapps style package signature faking (needed by ug GmsCore): https://fralef.me/using-android-without-google-apps.html
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Karan.S:
Are you talking about the default file manager that comes with this rom, "Files"? If so, I tried multiple file formats, jpegs, mp3s, txts etc... and selected to share them, the usual menu pops up with all the apps that can share them including bluetooth, it doesn't however let you share apks. Maybe you could clear the app's data and cache and try to see if that resolves it?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] xvko:
Yes, default file manager. I cleared data and cache and it's still going straight to my messaging app (while selecting multiple files). It behaves normally when doing same action with only one file (doesn't matters what file format is). Strange.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Karan.S:
Hmmm.... strange indeed, what app are you using for messaging?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] xvko:
wireapp, could it be its fault ?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] JoseRGM9:
bugs??

and install ARM 7.1 gapps or ARM64 7.1 gapps?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] TundraLK520:
Arm for Nexus 4.

And I have been using Nitrogen for a long time now, I have tried a lot of mako nougat roms but keep coming back to Nitrogen as it is feature rich and the most stable. I haven't had any problems.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Karan.S:
Installed wireapp to test on my end, unable to see any change, it still opens the menu with all the apps.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] minnuss:
Is anybody here have a problem with not showing power off menu ?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Karan.S:
I had the same issue yesterday, wanted to reboot the phone but the power menu would not show up, it would simply turn off the screen and lock the phone even after long pressing the power button. Ultimately had to hold the power button down to force reboot it. After rebooting, the menu is now showing as it should.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
If you are dirty flashing, i would say do a clean flash...

Nitin
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Karan.S:
Yup, the current one is a dirty flash. Have a clean flash planned for later in the evening.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] moriel5:
It is not Rovo89's method, but rather abforce's, and the zip is based upon that, however people are not giving credits where they are due, even going as far as claiming that it is their own implementation.

Rovo89 does not endorse either this method, nor the zip, which is making a bad name for Xposed Framework, due to it being based upon a pre-alpha quality fork of a pre-alpha quality version of Xposed Framework.

And while I also would prefer to have Xposed Framework included in any ROM I use, I think that it is preferable to wait until it reaches stability, and to respect the wishes of the ROM developers and maintainers (kudos about that last one).

Source: https://github.com/rovo89/Xposed/issues/230
[Nexus 4 Android Development] TundraLK520:
That's what I said, that rovo said rom integration is the way to go and he doesn't support the flashable zip created by abforce.

Sorry, misremembered a feed, the second method was art module not by rovo.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] xvko:
Thanks for checking that out, I rest my case (my nephew's phone got the same issue). Moving on anyways.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] __init__:
Hi,

I've been having trouble using two apps (Microsoft Hyperlapse Mobile and Google Motion Stills) with this ROM on mako.

Motion Stills will crash if you press any of the record buttons, and Hyperlapse won't let you record or import video, giving me a generic error message like "something went wrong".

Any help?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] moriel5:
Actually, Rovo89 did not decisively say that ROM integration is the way to go, but rather that it is a possibility.

He wants it to work on AOSP without any compatibility bugs though.

In short, Rovo89 does not currently endorse any method that is currently in the wild for 7.x.

hi nitin,

do you know, our nexus 4s get android 8 by nitrogen? if yes, I know stable android O version will release mid august, when we get nitrogen?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ariesgodofwar:
When he gets to it. You are essentially asking something which he cannot know the answer to. Relax....
[Nexus 4 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
No, [MENTION=5422618]xyyx[/MENTION] said he was not planning to work on Android O; so there won't be Nitrogen based on O :(

Nitin
[Nexus 4 Android Development] xvko:
Does this means that when Nougat hit EOL, NitrogenOS for Nexus 4 will stop being developed by xyyx, you and others. Or will it continue only with Nougat base?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
It'll stop, no point in continuing N when O is here...

Nitin
[Nexus 4 Android Development] chopoLet:
True, even though Super nitin stops maintaining NOS it is still stable enough to be used as daily driver but we all know that we never settle down on customizing our devices and always wanted to have new feels every time there is something new. I myself believe that someday, somehow mako will still get the O feels like everyone else does and if not. Get a new device :)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
I also think that mako will get taste of O :cyclops:

Nitin
[Nexus 4 Android Development] xda-dvlprs:

thanks, also I think we'll get android O for nexus 4. and fortunately [MENTION=5422618]xyyx[/MENTION] will change his mind :)

I've spent some time searching for a replacement phone for when my N4 dies, beginning several months ago, reading reviews, comparing specs and customizability, Costs, etc, etc, etc. And I keep ending with "well, I guess I'll just buy another"...lol (placing all bets on mako android o a reality).

Anyone else settle with a potential replacement?

My nexus 4's digitizier died 2 weeks ago and bought a second hand because nexus 4 is a love with nitrogen.

But if my nexus 4 will die again or nitrogen won't up to android O my choice is :

1- if price not important : google pixel series

2- if small screen love : lg google nexus 5x

3- if big screen love : huawei google nexus 6p
[Nexus 4 Android Development] minimega:
Hi Nitin, thanks for your good work!

Just to be sure: once I've flashed Nitrogen + Gapps on my phone, at the next OS update is enought to flash only the OS zip, or should I always flash the Gapps zip togheter?

And at upgrade, wich partitions shoud I wipe before flash .zip? Is correct to wipe:

- Dalvik / Art Cache

- System

- Cache

and leave as is:

- Data (for already installed Google Play apps)

- Interal Storage (pictures, video..)

Thanks
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Karan.S:
For a "dirty flash" all you need to do is install the updated zip in TWRP. You don't need to flash gapps as they are already part of the existing flash. You could also wipe the Davik/cache to avoid issues with the existing apps and the new update, but even that isn't really necessary.

For a clean flash without loosing all the data on the internal storage, you need to select all options except internal storage.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] g33k0 b3lk0w:
I just want to say a BIG Thank you to everyone in this community, esspecially Nitin who provided us with great ROMs and ports.

Hi Nitin, I've some problems with WiFi connection.

At work I leave Nexus 4 connected with WiFi network, and Whatsapp Web opened on my desktop. With Lollipop 5.1.1 any problem, phone keep connected to WiFi network for all the day.. also when in stand by mode I get Whatsapp messages without problems. After flashed Nitrogen, WiFi disconnects automatically in a random way: after 3 hours or after 20 minutes.. When disconnected, I push N4 power button to wake up monitor, and I can see ther's no WiFi icon on toolbar. In Settings/WiFi I can see WiFi is powered on, and my work profile in in list (is the first item). Every 10 seconds, under the profile name I can see "Authenticating.." for 2 seconds, then back to "Saved", in a continuos loop. If I switch off/on the WiFi card nothing changes, same behaviour. Sometimes, if I keep pressed on WiFi name and force "Connect to network" and do this more times, WiFi connects. If I reboot phone, it always connects to WiFi at next boot. AP is a Cisco Aironet, I really don't think it can have any kind of problems.. so I mean it can depend by Nitrogen image (or some new wifi parameter in Android 7).

I tried to flash many versions of patched WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini I found on XDA, but any of this solved the problem. Any idea? Thanks!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
Read the announcement at the top: If you have WiFi disconnection: Go in WiFi settings on router -> Encryption -> Set TKIP

Some users were facing this and it has been discussed in this thread over multiple posts/ pages.

Nitin
[Nexus 4 Android Development] xstarbuckx:
Looks like it might of been a network problem that happened the same time as I flashed this.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] minimega:
Yes, I've found that note about TKIP, and the AP is setted to WPA2/TKIP (excluding AES), but this does not work!

Anyway, if Lollipop 5.1.1 was working good, what's changed in Nitrogen image? WiFi drivers? WiFi config file?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
I don't have answer as to what has been changed... We are talking about 2 full fledged versions of Android and there are hell lot of changes.

Did you scroll through the pages to see what worked for other users?

Nitin
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Stealth356:
TKIP don't work for me, enable Bluetooth for 15 seconds and you be able to connect to wifi again. I'm on Pure Nexus and have this same problem, after 5 or 6 weeks with the ROM installed the problem disappear for me.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] minimega:
Thanks Stealth356, I will try your trick next time WiFi will hang, thank you.

If this can help, here are some new details:

- WhatsApp Web page says "phone not connected"

- Wake up phone, WiFi icon still there

- Open Chrome and try to navigate, it works

- Open WhatsApp App, start receiving waiting messages from friends

- On WhatsApp Web page phone return to be connected

This seems to be a WhatsApp related problem, not involving phone WiFi connection

- WhatsApp Web page says "phone not connected"

- Wake up phone, WiFi icon disappeared (not connected to WiFI at all)

- Go to Settings/WiFi

- Under WiFi profile I see "Connecting.."/"Saved" in loop

- Long touch over item, "Connect To.." for some times

- Randomly Off/On switch button move himself to "Off", then immediately to "On"

- In 2 seconds I'm newly connected to WiFi network

- WhatsApp works fine

---------- Post added at 02:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:02 PM ----------

Sure, I've tried all the WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini variants I've found on XDA for Android 5/6/7 but no ones worked for WiFi disconnection.

Same behavior also at my home, wit a TP-Link router.

Hey dude, does it boot in recovery as mine did...? Mine was softbricked when i did factory reset after flashing this ROM. So after that every time i flashed ROM it would bootloop straight into recovery.

The only option i found is to flash factory image. Then do everything from beggining (flash TWRP>ROM>Gapps etc.)

Anyways, thanks for ROM OP! Its friking awesome! Cant believe you already put all these features in the nougat already! Was using Chroma, then Pure Nexus. I think this will be my next daily driver. <3
