[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Short answer : yes. ROM comes without launcher and without keyboard. You have to flash my gapps package to install them.

Long answer : here's why I want you guys to flash my own gapps package.

1) I've had some weird bugs with OpenGapps on Nougat, for example after downloading an apk file, if you click on the download notification, apk installer crashes. It works well with my own package.

2) As I said I want to provide a Pixel-like experience. That means also using the google dialer and the google contacts. To have google dialer working out of the box (without having to manually set it to default), I have hardcoded that in the framework. That means nobody will forget to do that and miss calls after flashing my ROM. That also means you need a gapps package that comes with google dialer, otherwise you won't have any phone app.

3) I also want this approach to be as simple as possible. Flashing my ROM + my Gapps makes everything works straight out of the box, no hassle or anything. If I don't provide one, I have no control over what Gapps people will flash and what problems they might encounter. This approach is much simpler for everybody.

If you ABSOLUTELY want to use opengapps, then the only way is to use Aroma installer, and choosing at the very least : A launcher, a keyboard and Google dialer (+framework, but it's probably done by default). And then, don't complain if something doesn't work.

That said, if you feel my gapps package is missing something important, let me know and I'll see what I can do.

Hello guys,

Today I have install this nice rom, for me is the first time with CAF rom.

I come from Fake Nexus Rom, and visually are the same (cercle icons, blue theme on settings, icons from NavBar...).

I not have any bugs /issues, Bluetooth in car works fine, telephone works fine, videos from google camera are fixed... all is working correctly!!!

I look this night when pass my personally battery test (6 hours on AirplaneMode look the battery drain, on Fake Nexus Rom with ElementalX only drains 1% on this 6 hours).

I hope drains the same...

Best Regards.

AtEExll

P.S. Sorry for my bad English but is not my native lenguaje.

Thank you again for awesome ROM! It's really amazing, clean and fast. I will use it on both my Nexus5 - my and my wife (:

And I have a question: your ROM have "nightly" status. It means, that ROM will be updated regularly, or as soon as possible?

Thank you.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Passaralho:
Being this the first release with 'NIGHTLY' or the last before Deltas and having new GAPPS, is it wiser to do a clean install or will it go ok with a dirty flash over previous release?

Thanks again for your work and efforts!

P.S.: I do have some serious issues with bluetooth in car...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Well I switched to NIGHTLY status just to differentiate the new builds with the old ones, as all the nightly builds will have delta updates and the unofficial will not. I will update it as needed, I won't release nightly cause 1) I don't have the time nor the PC power to build that often, 2) it would be kinda useless anyway as the are very few changes on the CM front between nightlies and 3) I like to test things a bit before releasing, so I'm sure you guys won't have any trouble ;)

It can be dirty flashed on top of the old builds without issues. If you ever need to clean flash, I'll say it in the new build post. As for bluetooth issues, I have no issues with my smartwatch, and I used it briefly in my wife's car without problems, albeit for a short period of time. I can test longer today. Can you tell me exactly what issues you have? Is it the same on other ROMs?

NO GAPPS

OK guys, I heard you, and since I like my dark_users happy ;) , I made a flashable zip that will install the minimal apps to get a "normal" phone when used alongside minimal Gapps packages. It's untested for now, but I trust some users here will provide feedback if it goes sideways. See second post for more details.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Passaralho:
Thank you for your answers.

The Bluetooth with my smartwatch is ok. In car it started working well in the morning both with calls (in and out) and with Podkikcer streaming audio. After a couple of calls it missed the audio of the calls although it stoped the podcast and after some time it was all malfunctioning.

I'm going to unpair/pair devices again and keep you posted.

Sure :) I don't know if it is really possible but maybe the zip file is somehow corrupt and you should try downloading it again? And ofcourse wipes should help :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Anybody using synapse for settings that are not accessible t through other kernel apps? I've been thinking about ditching it and letting everybody use whatever app they want. It's true that's it's not working as good as it should, and until now I've kept it because 1) TrueSight dev recommands it and 2) it's not that simple to get it working with ukm and all, so I thought I'd implement it to make it easy on everyone. Maybe it's time to move on?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] dkodr:
Haven't even changed a thing in Synapse and literally every boot ends with a toast message "Synapse boot cancelled". I even tried disabling the security detting - didn't change a thing.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
That looks like an hardware issue of some sort, or maybe some app you have is not playing nice. The no sim card issue seems pretty weird, and absolutely not related to the lag and hang issues. Since you seem to be the only one having that kind of issue, I'd say it's device related...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] DiavoloPowa:
Go to synapse settings and disable stability check, it will force synapse to set your settings

[Nexus 5 Android Development] kenlee97:
Thank you for this amazing rom dev! It's the best nougat rom i have tried so far on my nexus 5. There is only a little problem right now. I just clean install the latest build and install snapchat, when i try to login it gives me this error "there was a problem connecting to the server. Please try again". I can assure you that this is not the snapchat error because i have try again many times including rebooting the phone. In previous builds i dont have any trouble after clean installing the rom then log in to snapchat. Anyone with the same problem? Thank you!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] DaKing1512:
its because your phone is not passing SafetyNet Test that google implemented in the November Security patch and the following patches, and snapchat is one of the apps that check for such test (other apps that i know of are PoGo and all banking apps)

follow the tutorial i posted earlier.

Note: Magisk and PHH Super User are updated now, so go to their XDA posts and download/flash/install the updated files

Note2: if anyone here uses CAF can you please follow this tutorial and see if your pone passes the SafetyNet Test ( of course you cant do step 6 because you only have TruSight kernel to play with)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] krombopulos:
I've been using synapse since the beginning, it's always been the way of it, settings are never persevered from one flash to another and the profiles thing is useless. To counter this I change as little settings as possible. But it seems to work fine other than those obvious flaws. What would be a good alternative? Adiutor seems a bit lack luster.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Antares9:
I have this issue as well. But I can "fix" this by opening the Phone Info by dialing *#*#4636#*#*, but this issue come back every time I restart my phone.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] sghmk12:
Logging into snapchat doesn't work on the 8th build, I even tried clean flashing
[Nexus 5 Android Development] DaKing1512:
Hey, check my reply #1590 in the previous page
[Nexus 5 Android Development] sghmk12:
Thanks for the reply but that would be strange because Snapchat worked previously on the rom. I don't think that Snapchat checks specifically for safetynet either because from my experience it checks for root first then xposed then enforcing selimux but not safetynet, and while doing this process it would show a loading screen saying verifying device. This time around it doesn't do that at all it says cannot connect to servers while it works fine on my other devices. As a side note I have confirmed safetynet is not present in this build.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bravesoul349:
You can Full flash latest stock ROM with radio recovery and all other necessary things. I hope this will resolve your problem.

[MENTION=5445418]Dark_Eyes_[/MENTION] I don't think it is a hardware issue because everything became normal after flashing stock ROM and as I told you that ROM was detecting which SIM I have but still showing no SIM card msg .

It's something like this:

No SIM Card - No Service - JIO

JIO is my SIM card operator

When I inserted another SIM I get same msg but with changed operator name.

Which means my Nexus was successful detecting my SIM card and that's why I don't think it's a hardware issue.

Edit: My Nexus never have such issues before even never hanged before in any ROM.

Using AOSP
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ray_sami:
help please, i update the bootloader + radio, installed the rom + gapps reboot , stay on de animatie that is, 3x time i try it even without gapps just the room , & gave it more time after 30 minutes animation & phone got hot ....nothing more ????

[Nexus 5 Android Development] MuhammadHesa:
Does anyone here have tried dirty flash from aosp to CAF? Is it safe?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vurey:
I just disabled Synapse. Haven't touched the settings once. Same with Viper.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Antares9:
exactly! It says: No SIM Card - No Service - Telkomsel (my SIM Provider) - No SIM Card - No Service - Telkomsel - *repeat forever* on the lock screen.

After you flash the stock ROM, and come back to Dark ROM did it solved or you still have the same problem?

for the record, I use CAF version
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bravesoul349:
Yes! No issue now.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Antares9:
okay, I'll do it tonight. so, what did you flashed? Stock ROM, radio recovery, and?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bravesoul349:
Flash all the files included in the stock ROM compressed file.

I used ADB commd flash-all after extracting them

Download and follow steps given here https://developers.google.com/android/images

I used Minimal ADB for flashing

Microphone not working...any recording app I try says "Another app is using microphone". Anyone else facing the same issue?

P.S: Tried changing kernel and checked, still no luck.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] MuhammadHesa:
Video recording, Google assistant, microphone are not working. Does anyone experience this?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Those having mic issues, please search the thread for a similar issue. Someone reported a bad/non functioning mic and he fixed it by pressing somewhere on the phone, under the power button if I remember correctly. It's a bad connection in the phone that is responsible for that.

Those having sim card issues, did it start with the January security update? I'll need a logcat to check what is wrong.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] sghmk12:
Did you or the truesight kernel change anything safety net related in the latest build? Because up until now snapchat worked perfectly on this ROM. It's only now after the lineage OS update that it doesn't and I believe that's really important for a lot of users.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] lukakas:

Does anyone know a way to get root access using the CM File Browser (my preferred due to its clean design). Normally you would grant root access through the Developer Options, but this ROM uses SuperSU. Thanks for your help

I think the mic problem is not the hardware cause it's fine on other ROM
[Nexus 5 Android Development] phpbb3:
I've been keeping an eye on this rom since development started. It looks like it has become a magnificent custom firmware. I'm going to give it a try here shortly, as it looks like it has stabilized well. [MENTION=5445418]Dark_Eyes_[/MENTION] , congratulations on this very popular ROM, and thanks for your wonderful contributions. I really do appreciate it.

For anyone who's interested, my installation method will be as follows (in order):

Dark ROM Hammerhead zip

extra packages zip (only cmfm and snap/gallery2)

v4a2audiofx zip

NoGapps zip

OPENgappsPico zip

SuperSU zip

ElementalX zip

(Hopefully I never ****ed up the extra packages zip, here goes nothing!)

In CMFM, go to settings, general options, access mode "root access".
[Nexus 5 Android Development] EricBlade:
Not sure if this is at all helpful.. but.. i completely wiped everything on the device, restored back to the original 6.0.1 flash-all, reinstalled twrp 3.0.2, re-downloaded and reinstalled 1/08 CAF. It actually started up into the first use app this time! And immediately dropped "Gboard has stopped. Close App". Seems to work OK after that.

During First Use setup, the Google Service pages has a completely blank spot between "Improve location accuracy" and "Help improve your Android experience", which has a on/off tick box, but no text in it.

... and now it's off to restore my 116 apps from the play store. guess i'll edit back here if anything else occurs. :D

... do I need to install something else to root? I'm used to roms that have root built in. I'm just noticing the post a couple above mine...

.. i think i'm going to have to return this phone to the ebay guys that sold it to me, it's still just crashing randomly on me. ugh. hope they have another one, that doesn't crash.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vurey:
Thanks [MENTION=6912643]phpbb3[/MENTION], I tried that but don't have the option (I think because I can't give it root access in Developer Options)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] phpbb3:
I see what you mean now, and it appears as though I have the same issue.... I'm not really sure! Has anyone else figured this out?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Make sure you do a factory reset and wipe system, data, cache and dalvik cache prior to installing the ROM and gapps. A bootloop like you have is very not likely to happen on a completely fresh install...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Nope, the truesight kernel change was merely a revert of the latest f2fs patch (maybe something else, but it was very minor). On the rom side, I don't think what I did could have caused that, but you have to keep in mind that Lineage OS also merged the january security update, and there might be a lot of stuff in it. That could be why you cannot use Snapchat anymore. Also, I recall earlier that one version of my rom would work with snapchat, the other not, then it would work again... Did the app got updated? That could be an issue too.

I would say this : Apps that check for root/uses safetynet are likely to break at any point in time. If you need those to work flawlessly, you should give up on custom ROMs and use plain Google factory images. It's the only way to make sure it works everytime. I'm sorry it is breaking now, but there is not much I can do about it. Maybe try the AOSP version along with magisk v10.2. It is passing safetynet on my angler, but I don't know for sure on the Nexus 5.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
I'm quite surprised by this actually, but install busybox from the playstore and you should be good to go. I thought busybox was installed by default on Lineage OS, maybe I'm wrong. Also, maybe it's because CMFM looks for the standard CM root, which I removed for the sake of helping to pass safetynet... Let me know if it helps.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Last but not least: mic and sim card problems. I'm sorry people have such issues, and I unfortunately can't test the sim card now because even though I kept the N5, I don't have a sim card in it now, so I'm always getting the no sim card warning (which is perfectly normal in my case lol). I didn't specifically tested the mic, but I recall it triggering the OK Google when I tested that feature on my angler (was it before or after the jan 8th update is not clear).

So, please try to describe your problem as much as possible. When did it start, what is happening, what have you tried that didn't work. Also, I need a logcat to know what went wrong on your phone. If I can't reproduce the bug and check on my own phone, there is no way I can fix it on yours (unless you send me said phone, which I doubt is an option lol). Take a bit of time and research if there are other people that have this specific problem and how they fixed it. I spend a lot of time working on this, and I expect at least that everyone takes a bit of his own time to investigate their problems and try to solve them themself if possible.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] LijoDXL:
I guess some other app is accessing mic and it is not releasing the control to other apps that requires access to mic. If it was a hardware problem, the apps wouldn't have shown the error I mentioned earlier.

Anyways, the ROM is cute. Thanks to dark_eyes and his hard work.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] MuhammadHesa:
I think the SIM card issue came when you try to lock LTE signal on *#*#4636#*#* try to revert the settings to LTE/UMTS again.

i hope you'll fix this microphone issues dev, here it is the logcat :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Sometimes error messages are confusing or misleading. It might be the case, but maybe not. Can you get me a logcat? Also, try going into Google settings and try to retrain the OK Google hotword, especially if you now use the latest Google App beta. I'm thinking some of the mic problems may be related to the Google Assistant switch. I know it was kinda buggy on the N6P, so I encourage everyone to retrain it, or even clear Google App data and start again from scratch. Also, make sure you use the latest gapps on a clean flash, or even delete the system/priv-app/HotwordEnrollment app and dirty flash the ROM on top. That should fix some issues you might have.

The installer reports that 1.23.2 was already installed to /system/xbin, but I let it install to /su/xbin (1.25.1) and rebooted, no difference.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] vurey:
I've installed busybox too and haven't noticed a difference. Not really sure what Busybox does anyway! :p
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Thanks for trying guys. I remember once I tried to install CMFM on a factory image, and I didn't have that option either until I installed busybox. As I thought, busybox is pre-installed with CM / LineageOS. That could mean that CMFM looks specifically for root in the system/xbin file where the CM root normally lies. I'll see if I can change that behavior in the code, but maybe the easiest way would be to add CM root in the CMFM package.

I tried to grab a logcat while rebooting - No Sim thing - "fixing" by opening Phone Information - and a normal one. (am I doing right tho?)

I have this problem since the November update I think. I'm not sure, it's the end of November or the beginning of December.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
CMFM uploaded

Guys,

I tried to force the root option to show even without the su binary being on the xbin folder, but even if it shows up it still won't let me go in root mode. The app is not asking for root permission and always fails to gain root. The only way I got it to work (without going through the whole code and trying to implement systemless root) is to add the su binary in the xbin folder where the app expects it to be. The install package I uploaded adds it for you, but keep in mind that the ROM will then fail SafetyNet for sure, since it specifically check for su binary on the system partition.

Enjoy !!!

So will safety net fail even with magisk? Because right now magisk hide isn't working for me.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Apparently the caf version can't pass safetynet even with magisk. It doesn't even pass it totally unrooted, so there is something that safetynet doesn't like about caf, but I have no idea what it is. The aosp version has been said to pass it with magisk 10.2, and I pass it too on my N6P, but flashing cmfm will definitively break it even with magisk.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] GreenDinoXD:
I just keep Snapchat logged in, but it did pass safety net on one of the older caf builds so this is strange. I found an app, I'm not sure what exactly it does but apparently it helps some people get past safety net.
