[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
New build is up!

Guys,

I hate to keep my dark_users waiting, so I pushed a brand new build to the new server (link in the OP). Big thanks to my friend [MENTION=4574921]MidnightDevil[/MENTION] for letting me use it!!! Obviously delta updates won't work with this build, but they should work for all upcoming builds. Quick changelog :

- Added NFC tile

- Added battery bar

- Fixed OpenDelta to work on the new server

I hope you guys enjoy it !!!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] krombopulos:
I'll toast you both with a rum this evening.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Sk8alias:
What does it means? (link in the OP)??? I can't understand! Give me pls link to download
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Sorry guys, xda won't let me edit the OP.

Here is the link

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hugo9191:
Already downloading, way faster than Basketbuild! Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Sk8alias:
I remember, that u said about stop CAF, where it come?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] pWEN:
Thank you! :D

Do we continue using the NoGapps from 12/28 if we want a minimal Gapps install?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mistersixt:
The connection to/from the new server seems to be brilliant, just flashed the CAF version following Magisk ... and it seems work be flawless as far as I can see ;) !

Kind regards, mistersixt.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] willyinpr4u:
One question, are you currently using Multirom? If you are, did you flash any other Kernel? Are you AOSP or CAF? I'm asking because I tried to flash it, and it bootloops in the Google logo. I'm on CAF.

Regarding your question, it should work, unless you flashed a different Kernel. See, when you update, the new build comes with the default Kernel, of the default Kernel isn't ready for the patch, then you will need to flash the kennel and the patch again.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] amit_chapala:
Hi I just want to ask do I need to flash whole ROM or just dirty flash the update? I m currently running on caf version of ROM and I have super su installed so do I need to flash super su another time or I just want magisk so do I need to flash magisk pls reply ASAP

---------- Post added at 02:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:22 PM ----------

Which file do I need to download? There are so many files in new link as delta, extra, angler, Shamu pls help
[Nexus 5 Android Development] kmem:
I use multirom with CAF. I didn't try other kernels, just multisight (truesight?)I have seen many bootlopps recently while playing with microG (which I still haven't gotten working perfectly yet!). I have even managed to mess up my multirom setup a couple times but got it back both times by reflashing the internal ROMs boot partition.

I was thinking that using opendelta to update might try to update the internal ROM instead of dark ROM which is a secondary.

I want to try EFIDroid soon as multiroms development is all but dead.

If you have been experiencing a bootloops with multirom, there are several unofficial builds near the end of the thread which might work better. I am currently using the latest unofficial one as well as the l latest TWRP-multirom which were kindly provided by captain throwback. Also don't forget about the patch that must be applied to the internal ROM. I don't think it will boot without it. I tried the workaround in the recovery but still needed the patch for some reason. Hope this helps!

---------- Post added at 04:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:56 PM ----------

You should be able to dirty flash the ROM if going from CAF to CAF. You will need to reroot afterwards though, as root is lost. You only need one root package,, SuperSU or Magisk, not both.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] 17samu17:
hey guys , i have a problem, why amazon shopping or adobe clip and mor app they are not compatible on play store? please help me and sorry for my english
[Nexus 5 Android Development] amit_chapala:
Hi md5sum is not downloadable from new link do I need it or can go ahead without it
[Nexus 5 Android Development] willyinpr4u:
Ok, dirty flash should be OK.

The file should be for Hammerhead of you often a Nexus 5.

Also look for the build number, for example; if the last build we on March 25, then you should be able to see 20170325.

When it comes to root, is your choice, but if you flash and update, flash root after every update.

Best of luck.

That's not the file, go one above.

---------- Post added at 05:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:56 PM ----------
[Nexus 5 Android Development] kmem:
Yes, I think dark_eyes' modified kernel is the multisight one. Not sure if it is helpful but my internal ROM is the latest stock mm w/ exposed and the kexec patch. I tried it without the kexec patch - using the workaround from the recovery and it refused to boot so I have doubts that the workaround works as intended.

If you have further questions feel free to pm me but I am far from an expert. Once hammerhead support for EFIboot becomes official and especially if people are able to migrate ROMs from multirom to EFIboot I will likely go that direction. I like the idea of not needing a modified primary ROM not to mention having ongoing support.

Having a multiboot system is great when testing new builds. Having to constantly backup and restore SMS when booting different ROMs has become a major pain though... I hope that EFIboot will implement some way to share SMS data between ROMs like multirom does with sdcard data.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] willyinpr4u:
Thanks. Just tried it with the unofficial build, it didn't work. I think there is an update script somewhere here in XDA which makes Multirom work. If I could get a Kernel with Kexec compatible, I'm sure it would work. I'll keep looking, thanks for all your help.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] kmem:
I think the file you are looking for is titled kernel_kexec_hammerhead_601.zip. At least that's the one I have sitting on my device ATM.

This is cause my primary ROM is 6.01 though.

The kernels are on one of the first few posts in the multirom thread.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] TheToto318:
I'm going to try

thanks for you help
[Nexus 5 Android Development] amit_chapala:
I have flashed magisk but magisk manager shows safety net fails CTS PROFILE NOT MATCHED . WHAT IS THAT?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] kmem:
I think you also need to enable magisk hide if you haven't done so already.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] amit_chapala:
Thanks sir, you made my day now it is passing safety net.

Is there anything do I need to check in settings to use magisk
[Nexus 5 Android Development] kmem:
I don't think so. Magisk has additional modules you may be interested in exploring though.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] TheToto318:
Thank you infinitely I flasher magisk and mario run is working i will flash xposed and I need to put it in the opendelta folder for updates ?

I have just seen that there is no xposed framework for Android nougat its true ?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] twili9ht:
Can someome please upload the previous build somewhere? I forgot to disable substratum and I get force close on system UI after flashing the latest build and cant open any apps.

I've had this problem before and flashing the same build as when substratum was enabled always fixed it.

Edit: Nevermind, forgot about the Substratum recovery zip.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] MuhammadHesa:
I just realised that i always keep my location on and I enabled smart lock including trusted place. And my question is why my phone isn't unlocked in my default place (home) is this not supported on this ROM or it's a bug? Does someone that regularly use smart lock help me? Or someone else?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] meatwad0222:
Are you connected to wifi? I discovered that while at home if i wasn't connected to wifi sometimes the smart lock wouldn't work. It always seems to work while connected to my home wifi though.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
I decided to drop support altogether for those not using my GAPPS. You can still use any package you want and install the needed apps, like launcher, phone app, contact app, etc.

It should work but for me too it isn't very reliable. Sometimes it won't unlock for no apparent reason. I use my smartwatch also to unlock, and that works much better.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] CoolKitty:
ANyone else having problems with Screen search with Assistant (aka the former Google Now on Tap). It's so inconsistent that so far out of 8 or 9 times it's worked only once. And while we're at it Night light won't turn on automatically on sunset (or turn off at sunrise). This is about build 20170317 in case you need it.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] MuhammadHesa:
Oh yeah I didn't connected to a wifi, and another question, does you or anyone know the NFC issue to unlock the phone? The NFC is like stopped working and have to re turned on again ti work again.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] spibbs:
I've been running Dark Rom CAF for the last few weeks. It's great, it's smooth and stable, no freezing or glitches. Good battery life and performance... But honestly I can't tell the difference between this and an AOSP rom. I'm sure if you measured certain things carefully there might be a small difference, but I doubt it's anything that's noticeable to a regular user. Maybe slightly smoother? I don't know.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Karnage11:
Why is my System Updates Disabled ??
[Nexus 5 Android Development] dandroid256:
This ROM is great, and all the knowledge in this thread is doubly so. :) One thing I'm still trying to understand: If we want to use MicroG to avoid Google's APIs as much as possible, do we flash that *instead* of Dark_Gapps, or after/in addition to? I realize Dark_Eyes_ said he'd only support Dark_Gapps, which is fair, but I'd still like to try out MicroG with this ROM. Thanks!

Can you set SELinux Status to Enforcing in the next build?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] rondevon:
Anybody gave a try on the 03/28 build?

Seems it is a 250mb bundle unlike the previous which were all 400+ mb .

(Although this change is consistent for angler and shamu devices too)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Arpita chokhani:
Hey yesterday i installed caf version everything thing works great rom is very snappy and fast.

But my device frequently auto restart why it is Happening plz help,?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mrbennett:
Works fine for me.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mrbennett:
Latest is enforcing
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mrbennett:
Latest build.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] krombopulos:
I thought they had all been sub 300MB. However if using delta updates, the patched image wouldn't be compressed (or compressed as much) and would read nearly 500MB.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] zerand:
Thanks as always for your efforts! Just a question: what's battery bar? :D
[Nexus 5 Android Development] TomiLynch:
It's a thin line on top of the status bar that reprecents the battery charge, decreasing from right to left.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
That's because basketbuild is down. You will need to manually download the latest build from the new server to get Delta updates working again.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] FerrousSix2:
Cant install using the latest trwp CAF

I'm unable to install the Caf version using the latest trwp caf. Everything says its Ok during flash. But after pressing reboot nothing happens. Black screen, and the only thing that i can access is the download mode. Even the recovery stops working. Im looking for better battery life. Can I just flash the caf version using normal twrp or the normal version has a good battery?

Note: After this, i've installed LineageOs 7.1.1 but battery seems to be draining too fast
[Nexus 5 Android Development] gAgNiCk nThViM:
you can use the latest "normal" hammerhead trwp...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] sfoley1979:
i keep getting error on gapps zip file is corrupt?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] amit_chapala:
Hi recently I have received a webpage from my friend who has compiled all free to air radio stations from all over the world. Now I am listening all radio stations but I just want to ask is there any application available for Android which can record that songs (I.e. playing from Chrome and recording internal audio only) pls help
[Nexus 5 Android Development] FerrousSix2:
Nothing happens. Black screen again

Im gonna try aosp version
[Nexus 5 Android Development] SeaMax:
i don't know if there is an app specific for that purpose, but you can use a screenrecorder app, i used one once to record audio only, it needed root though. But i don't think it will be very comfortable for recording and indexing music.

The name is SCR Screen Recorder, it's on xda.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] krombopulos:
afaik our phone cannot record its own system sound. I'm pretty sure that all apps that do this actually use the microphone, which records any audio it hears, be it from the loudspeaker or anything else.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] amit_chapala:
Hi how can I remove audio FX from this ROM as hardly give effect on out put.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Neroi:
widgets google

I installed everything correct but why google widgets go long
[Nexus 5 Android Development] kmem:
I thought this was the ROM also. It turned out to be magisk 11.6 which has given me endless headaches. If you recently upgraded magisk try going back down.

---------- Post added at 08:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:56 PM ----------

Are you certain about this? I recently found an app which can record both sides of a phone conversation on the n5, something that the others I tried couldn't do (without using the microphone as the source)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] seilogeo:
I know that someone asked this before. I follow the thread from day one, but I didnt understand the answer, do I have to flash nogapps.zip which I always flash because I use pico gapps or not??
[Nexus 5 Android Development] pWEN:
Ah, I see. I tried using OpenGapps, but I guess that doesn't come with a keyboard, as I wasn't able to bring one up during initial setup. I reflashed DR and then flashed DarkGapps and it seems fine now. Thanks for keeping DarkGapps very minimal!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
If you absolutely want to use opengapps, you'll need the aroma package because picogapps doesn't come with the necessary apps. I don't support using other gapps packages anymore, so please use dark gapps. They are very minimal and only install what is barely needed, much like the pico gapps package.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] willyinpr4u:
One way is to install Titanium Back up, it allows you to remove any native app. Now, I haven't delete it on mine, instead I use Kernel Auditor, and tweak with the audio.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] gAgNiCk nThViM:
Are you clean flashing? I've been both clean and dirty flashing the caf build with trwp 3.0.3.0 hammerhead without issue...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] FerrousSix2:
Yes, everything clean. At least aosp version works like a charm. Testing battery now.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] lusephur:
Dirty flash over previous (Nov 6th) from resulted in com.android.phone not working errors (permissions were given and checked, problem persisted)

Clean wipe and flash of latest with dynamic Gapps works as intended.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] edi194:
Okay, i've pointed out what caused bootloop (atleast for me). It was suhide, everything becouse november security patch, without it everything is working good :)

(clean flash of course)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ekril:
I downloaded the ota, it patches itself with the old zip, pressed flash and everything is working for me.

but don't have a Sim in the device, so I don't know about phone functions.

also is synapse install intentional?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] stgaby:
i installed with full wipe.. and i get some glitches... and flickering on my screen... does anyone have the same problem? (in ss the flick doesn't show)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Thanks for all the replies guys ! That's what I feared, this version will require a clean flash. I also add the no sim card/ android.phone crashing and got it fixed with a clean flash. I had hoped it was just a problem on my side, but it probably has to do with all the new blobs and device/kernel repos. I hate to say that, but clean flash is requiered on this one :(

I'll let everyone know in the new build post, and I'll re-enable OTA since it seems to be working OK (not with suhide though, but unforntunately, I don't support that...)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] lionheartk:
Any reasons for the Synapse boot settings cancelled message every time you open it? anything to worry about or nah? Thanks and nice work!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ndarkside93:
To everyone facing the issue, the only solution is a clean install unfortunately. It's probably the updated kernel code and vendor blobs, plus the update to the November security patch set. Also, the change to selinux enforcing. There were a lot of under the hood changes. My advice, back up apps with titanium backup, as I did, wipe and clean flash then restore data apps.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] krombopulos:
I bit the bullet and this is exactly what I've done since reading Darkeyes comment. everything is working as it should so far.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ndarkside93:
Glad it's working. And I didn't see his post. Lol. Probably posted near the same time
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
It shouldn't happen every time, but it happens quite too often for me too. I'll be looking into that to try and make it more reliable. I think I just found something interesting for that matter...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] fuzzerino:
thanks
[Nexus 5 Android Development] baggord:
Nice build sir, ty.

Everything looks fine with clean flash.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] krombopulos:
Thanks so much for the update, with the clean flash everything is working very smoothly. DT2W works, the new viper is beautiful and exchange services which always seems to give me trouble is working. Very happy, once my bank acc stabilises I'll be straight onto buying you that beer.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] gautam_nexus:
New build looks solid. OK Google from any screen is not working. I am using the recommended Gapps from the OP.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
OK Google and now on tap work for me on any screen. Try maybe updating the app from the play store.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Cissmayazz:
Make sure it is good beer :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Thank you so much my friend. I'll actually save it to upgrade my pc so I can build faster. Android gets more and more power hungry to build with every version, and nougat is no exception. Anyway, thanks again for your donation!

cm-14.1-20161114-NIGHTLY is not booting for me. Had to reflash cm-14.1-20161106-NIGHTLY
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Did you clean flash? Also, if you have suhide you need to remove it before flashing. It should work fine, you're the only one having issues here...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ej8989:
Did a clean flash, been using it for about 10hrs. Everything seems stable enough, but the UI stutters a lot. Could be a kernel issue.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
CAF won't work if you had your screen replaced with a third party one. Something about the refresh rate. In this case you'll have to use the AOSP version.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] FerrousSix2:
So that's it. Unbelievable. That's my case, thank you! So let's stay in aosp
[Nexus 5 Android Development] seilogeo:
Thanks for the answer. I only want to dirty flash the latest build upon 8th of march built, do I have to flash dark gapps too or it will be ok to just flash the rom only(had the pico gapps installed) .

I am sorry for asking so many questions but I use the phone in my work and I dont want to mess up.

P. S. Nevermind I flashed the update without reflashing the gapps, all good, thanks for the rom.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] CoolKitty:
Are you guys having LTE problems with this build? I seem to be stuck in H+ and cant get it to LTE no matter what I do (and I have the correct APNs and LTE-enabled sim and LTE is a thing where I live).

[Nexus 5 Android Development] focus-pocus:
Had to clean install this ROM. Now it works perfect again, thanks :) :good:

During the first boot I've noticed an unnamed setting, see photo in the attachment. When I clicked on it, there was no text in the box.

As far as I remember, it was always there on any Nougat ROM I've tried. Anyone knows what it is?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Try setting a cLock widget and set the weather in it. It should work after that!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] willyinpr4u:
In my case, what I did was turn off wifi, use only mobile data, reboot, and LTE was display. This was back when I started using Dark_Rom when it first started.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] coyote1071:
hello dark_eyes,

thank you for your quick response but no success...it's not a big Problem for me ;) .. but i don't understand this..:silly:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] kmem:
I did this a few revs back. I had to download the cLock widget from the play store and within it I downloaded the CM Yahoo weather provider. Once configured and enabled from the Android settings it has worked through several updates to dark ROM. Hope this helps.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] herbie13:
Getting some great battery life with this ROM. Just got 1.5 days inbetween charges with 3.5 hours screen on time. Battery only drops a few % overnight too.

This was with general internet and browsing use, a little bit of gaming but not much, about 35mins on the phone and about 40 mins tethering.

Thanks Dark_Eyes, phone has never been this good even when new !
[Nexus 5 Android Development] coyote1071:
Hello,

unfortunately no success but thanks for your idea :good:

jürgen
[Nexus 5 Android Development] kmem:
Do you have cLock installed?

(This is different than the Google clock app)

I seem to remember that it wasn't included in the ROM several revs back which caused me some confusion. I used an app like this to download and install it.

"CM apps"

Once you have gotten cLock you can uninstall CM apps if you like.

Add the new cLock widget to any homescreen and configure the weather. It the needed "Yahoo CM weather provider” during setup. I don't use location on mine but explicitly defined a location.

Have any of you tried magisk 11.6 or 12.0? I ran 11.1 for quite a while without issue but I am having major problems with 11.6+ recently in dark ROM. It randomly unroots itself. I uninstalled the current magisk before upgrading and even tried using the unsu script. Decided to revert to magisk 10.2 + phh su for the meantime. It could be time for me to do a fresh install but I figured I would ask if any of you have observed this behavior. The magisk threads are chock full of users citing similar issues. Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] coyote1071:
,) i don't use magisk..sorry.....and the other problem with "weather on Lockscreen" is not important for me.....because this ROM is so Amazing. In my opinion this is the best ROM for Nexus 5.
