WOW. I still can't believe that my Nexus 5 is going to receive Android 8.0 Oreo. It's unbelievable. Thank you man for your hard work. All the community can't wait to see next FakeNexus build, we are all in intrepidity to see the news involving the legendary Nexus 5.

If you want we can help you testing new builds and making detailed reports.

Again, we are all so thankful ??????
[Nexus 5 Android Development] xiaoyang2016:
Congratulations:good:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] martin_ni:
Thanks and congratulations! And when Fake 8.0 out I can update from Fake 7.1 right?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] voyagerair:
beautiful and smooth ROM...but one big major issue that I had to go with NEXUS PIXEL PORT .

OP got it right; "Google Play Movies cannot play movies because DRM issue."

Youtube TV is black out, only audio. <-- this is a must-working feature for me

Youtube RED is ok

Youtube Video Music is ok
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ThinnerMetalX:
You may try after a complete backup. If something goes wrong you can easily restore ?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Sashko98:
Ganachoco, who's the creator of this project, and who also used to maintain this ROM for hammerhead, left this project long time ago, and ever since I have been somewhat of a maintainer. I would advise you not to use the ROM stated in OP as it is quite outdated in terms of both fixes and security.

If you want to give this ROM another try, look thru the posts for my latest build(should be August if i remember right).

thank you very much. I was flashing more-than-one-year-old ROM (signed-hammerhead-img-20161206)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ThinnerMetalX:
Today I had a video call on WhatsApp and after 7 minutes the video was gone; the camera crashed and I had to interrupt the call. Now torch and camera are not working, always the same bug occurred. I start thinking it's a hardware problem of all the Nexus 5's instead of a software one.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] [sito_web]:
No problems here.. I've onother bug camera related: it doesn't focus when I open any camera app, it remains frized in a focal lenght. If I knock harder the camera few times it works again. I tried to change the hardware and this bug remains. So it's software related and thinking about that it appeared after an OTA update.

I read online many guys have this problem and anyone have solved it..

:confused: :(

Has anyone tried NX ROM 11.1?

Can anyone help me with fake nexus and pure nexus ROMs?

Which delivers smooth performance without lags and also the battery backup camparision? Will both last through day on full charge? I'm using RR ROM and wanted to switch to AOSP. If anyone has used RR then how's battery backup compared to RR?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ThinnerMetalX:
You should try FakeNexus. It's as smooth and optimised as the Pixel ROM (Android Stock), the battery life is great. [MENTION=7412373]Sashko98[/MENTION] should release new build based on Oreo soon!

Any news, [MENTION=7412373]Sashko98[/MENTION]? How is going the development??
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Sashko98:
Quite bad unfortunately. It seems that Google has made a change towards the GAPPS in 8.0.0, which checks for certification keys matches/mismatches, and as the majority of the GAPPS files used in this ROM were patched and signed with private keys, they refuse to update from play store due to certification mismatch. There are still some things I have to try for this issue , but I am not that much optimistic about fixing it.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ThinnerMetalX:
Oh, that's not exactly what I hoped to ear... Is there anything we can do to help? If I knew how to build a ROM, I would certainly help you. Unfortunately, my knowledge about Android source code is very limited ?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PIERCALD1:
If it can serve, I use a one-month rom 8 Unlegacy with OpenGapps 8.0 that are updated perfectly.

I wanted to ask that in the latest build is the Slow Charging on lockscreen bug fixed or still there ?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] 95gabor:
Still there, but does not take effect. It's as fast as stock rom.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ThinnerMetalX:
Guys, I would like to discuss about the issue [MENTION=7412373]Sashko98[/MENTION] encountered developing the new build.

I'm asking to everyone who is actually an expert or everyone who understands the problem: do you think this problem can be solved? Is there a way to make Gapps key matching in Oreo build of this ROM?

Discuss, I would like you, guys, express your opinion about this in order to try to figure out a solution together...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] [sito_web]:
I didn't understand if this problem is due to gapps integration in the rom. Could we make a different gapps zip to flash in 2nd time after rom installation? What's the different between gapps integrated and gapps flashed with another zip?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ThinnerMetalX:
Unfortunately, I don't think this is possible. ROM is built around the Google Apps...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] v1r1at0:
Maybe if only compiling the ROM with the raw pixel-launcher shell with Private keys (it doesn't update quite a lot, and could updated in every compile-update of PixelRom) and the rest via Nano,micro GAPPS and/or play store. It could be a partial half solution, starting point.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ThinnerMetalX:
[MENTION=7412373]Sashko98[/MENTION] May I ask you a question? Maybe it seems stupid and silly for you but why does this ROM need private signed keys for the GApps? Why don't you just use original keys?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Nichie:
Can I take it that this is the latest build?

Also from what I read in OP, I can just flash it over stock rom (6.0.1)?

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] philipped346:
Clean instal ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Sashko98:
Little update on the work. I managed to fit the majority of the GAPPS, by collecting old versions of the applications. It wont look as much aesthetic as i want to, especially at the start, but it is still something. for now.

The only issues left to fix are some random reboots(which most likely happens due to some selinux denials), and fix the camera( I fail to integrate the text relocations properly).

As i said the majortiy of the gapps YouTube,Books,Drive etc... were patched to fit in the system image. The applications being used were never the original gapps from the playstore, and they were literally just linking to the app's specific page in google play store. You can check it by yourself by pulling /system/app/ and checking the sizes of the Stub applications, or even decompiling one.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ThinnerMetalX:
Thanks!?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Nichie:
It's not possible to flash over stock rom as stated in OP?

[MENTION=7412373]Sashko98[/MENTION] Hi, I really appreciate your efforts on 8.x and your good work in Android 7.1.2. but please can you make your own dedicated thread? Because ganachoco thread is now confusing for newbies. They are downloading the last Dec 2016 ROM , instead of your updated ROM zips. This would be more clean for us , and we can follow your tracks easily. Please take this into consideration at least. Thank you
[Nexus 5 Android Development] crisis_trustee:
Will be this build based on Android 8.1.0? :confused:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Sashko98:
I can barely find enough time to work on 8.0.0 build.I haven't synced 8.1.0 to check how different it is, but considering that there are no ROMs updated to 8.1.0 on xda I doubt the change is minor one.

The first build will most likely be based on 8.0.0, then we will see. I still want to work out something for the gapps, as I am quite unhappy with the current way of implementing the majority of the gapps. I would want to spend some time for it as well.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Olympus593:
Attached to this post there is a text file that is actually a shell script with the code below. Download this file, change the extension from dpi.txt to dpi.sh and save it to

/sdcard/Download

on your phone.

Explanation: this script creates a backup of build.prop (build.bak) and using SED, it finds the line of the DPI property and then substitutes 480 for 445, saving it as the new build.prop. Grep command is used to confirm the change, returning the line of DPI property, if it shows 445, then it worked. Chmod changes the permissions of the file, if it is not 644, Android won't boot.

cd /system
mv build.prop build.bak
sed '/ro.sf.lcd/s/480/445/g' build.bak > build.prop
grep lcd build.prop
chmod 644 build.prop

On TWRP, go to Mount and click on /system

Return to main menu, go to Advanced, Terminal. On the console, you can type each command on the CODE box above, or just run the script by using a simple command:

sh /sdcard/Download/dpi.sh

Reboot to system.

Of course. Just flash SuperSU 2.78.

Yes it does. Awesome Icons creates custom launcher shortcuts, but they don't support the new launcher shortcuts feature in 7.1.x (aka Android force touch). You have to use stock icon shortcuts for that
