Nothing that gr8 but as its a beta build quite impressive both performance & battery is balanced & more over battery depends on what kind of user you are
[Nexus 5 Android Development] GopalKaul:
True rayfen...

By the way I am ready to work on it. Just find me the source code and I will have a fully stable build for you
[Nexus 5 Android Development] :
Android P

Great if you can build it for Nexus 5. Would appreciate your work.

And I'm sorry if my previous comment offended anyone.

Can I just dirty flash oreo beta on the latest 14.1?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] :
Sorry, but I'm not in Android Developer stuff. I don't know any of that.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] GopalKaul:
Ok.

Let me tell you something.

Google does not make the code of its developer previews open source.... So no one except Google can build it...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Vrushant:
U can but u shouldn't clean flash is always recommended when coming from different version.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] DarkCaine:
Did anyone dirty flash without problems?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Vrushant:
Don't know but u better clean flash. It would be safe
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Vanquish17:

Hi sir, really a great stable build, enjoying Oreo on my N5.

However still it is in beta mode few things need to be corrected

1. Battery life must be improved.

2. Sound output should be louder.

3. NFC problem.

Thanks

Please do notified us for further updates.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] GopalKaul:
Yeah.

Instructions ?.

But seriously, can I build android on a 4 GB ram laptop with SSD and i5 2500k?

If you will guide me I will surely build it

I switched back to Nougat. I think its the best Oreo Rom. But the accu drain and the BT problems not working for me as a daily driver. But i think, it will be soon. Great work [MENTION=5445418]Dark_Eyes_[/MENTION]
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ThinnerMetalX:
So there's a big battery drain? Are u sure?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Rone33:
Yes, i am
[Nexus 5 Android Development] h.debnath:
Massive drain. I haven't used the phone all day on OREO Beta except during after that gap for 5 YouTube music Videos.. which took a hard hit as well.

This is after a factory reset, clean install.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] amit_chapala:
I too agree on that need to improve battery life even after removing NFC service it drains too fast as before I am also moving to nougat and waiting for stable build of Oreo. Hope it comes soon for us by d way other than battery it works perfectly just need some fine tuning in volume also thanks [MENTION=5445418]Dark_Eyes_[/MENTION]

Does anybody know how to do it? Unfortunately I have no experience in reformatting partitions and actually I'm on F2FS, that's why my Nexus 5 doesn't boot up. Is it possible to do it in TWRP?

---------- Post added at 04:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:02 PM ----------

Anyway, is possible to make this ROM compatible with F2FS? Which is faster and with higher performance than EXT4?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] :
Reboot your system into the latest TWRP and go to wipe. Then select system, cache and data one by one and choose change or repair file system. In that you should see an option to change file system. Just click that and select EXT4. Do the same process for cache and data partitions too. And boom... It should work.

Cheers!

Is there OTA update on this Rom ?

I have last dark Rom version on 7.1.2

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Rayfen Windspear:
No, it won't OpenDelta (OTA) update to Oreo, and with work on Oreo going on, there will be no more Nougat builds (most likely).

After Flashing, its not booting up

When I Flashed this rom, first time it was stuck in the boot screen only for like 45 mins. So I again made a clean flash but this time it showed wallpaper with 'Android Loading' message... I was not able to do anything.... Is there problem in the way I flashed or anything else went wrong....?

Pls help me with this
[Nexus 5 Android Development] lulli1:
Which version? 7.1.2 or 8.1?

What exactly did you flash in which order?

Which TWRP version do you use?

[Nexus 5 Android Development] trysys808:
Where is system update? (And thanks!)

Hey everyone,

First time poster long-time reader :o

First and foremost, thanks to [MENTION=5445418]Dark_Eyes_[/MENTION] for all your effort and to everyone else as well for all the feedback! I've never had to post to ask questions because I've been able to scour XDA to get my answers.

Dark Rom is my first venture into a custom rom (I'm a long-time NRT user, stock Android only and rooted with SU) and so far it's been great! I finally have my N5 setup how I like it but I can not (for the life of me) find where system updates are.

I flashed darkrom-15.120180307-NIGHTLY-hammerhead.zip and when I go to "Settings/About phone/System Updates" I don't see system updates anywhere. (I've considered wiping everything and re-flashing but that's not the first choice.) What am I missing? (Please see screenshots below)

...

And to contribute to the general discussion of idle battery drain, my first night with Dark Rom my battery drained from ~80% down to ~19% (with battery saver mode on). I read the suggestions to remove the NFC services and the following night resulted in about the same. Yesterday, I also installed Greenify and the Greenify Magisk module and my over-night idle battery life (with battery saver mode on) was... awesome! (the flat line, not the line thereafter)

I highly recommend people try this if they're having idle battery drain issues.

...

Thanks again to everyone and apologies for such a long post. I'll do my best to keep it much shorter in the future.

Cheers!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Rayfen Windspear:
Pretty much. Right now I just don't have time to do anything but work and pack and sign papers for the house. Things are crazy and I'm behind at work too. Plus, with work being done on Oreo, I'm significantly less motivated.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] jineshpatel30:
No issue.

Just wanted to know current status.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] minhajlk:
You need to flash dark gapps as well.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] lulli1:
Can't test NFC on your Oreo version, because I don't have a tag for that, but it should be broken, if you don't replace system/nfc with repo from Gzosp before building. [MENTION=5445418]Dark_Eyes_[/MENTION]

Gzosp has fixed it.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] dilipmd:
Version 8.1

I have Latest TWRP verison : 3.2.1

I just Flashed the ROM, I did not Flash Dark Gapps...

Gapps Flashing while flashing the ROM is manditory ????
[Nexus 5 Android Development] lulli1:
Not mandatory but useful.

Don't know if it's mandatory in that specific rom, maybe dark eyes stripped it down to a minimum that even the basics are not in, didn't test without. But it's not mandatory on other roms.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] minhajlk:
It is mandatory to flash dark gapps as there is no launcher included in the ROM. If you know how to add a launcher in TWRP after flashing the ROM then you don't need to flash the dark gapps.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
A week after the last person who asks me for it lol. Seriously, I'll release a new one with nfc fixed as soon as I get the time to fix the build. Hammerhead has been breaking for no apparent reason for a while, and I just didn't have the time to fix it yet. I'll try tonight, but I might end up watching a movie with a few beers, it's been a rough week at work lol.

System Update Missing?

Hey [MENTION=5445418]Dark_Eyes_[/MENTION],

Sorry to bug you after a rough week (I empathize)... but, I'm wondering is the system update menu missing from the settings? I looked for it based on what you described on page 1 but I don't see it.

I flashed Dark ROM from stock Android 6.0.1... did I need to flash something before flashing Dark ROM for it show up?

Thanks in advance and I'll pony up some beer money after I get paid! Your efforts are appreciated!

Cheers!

Flashed the rom as secondary and boots fine and it is very smooth.

My only problem is that developer options crash when I press to open, I cannot enable root from there, is something I can do to fix that.

Ps The provided gapps for dark rom refused to be flashed, and I used the no gapps zip in order to flash pico gapps.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] TehGooner:
This is from personal anecdotal experience, although CAF runs noticeably better and faster, it seems to achieve this at the cost of battery life. I can get better battery life of hammerhead on average with Franco kernel. The fact that we are only tied to TrueSight kernel is also a cons as it's hard to tell how good it is with little usage. I have yet to replace my battery for 3 years so my battery might be at fault here but I can average 3.5 hrs SOT with hammerhead and only slightly above 2 with CAF.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] fandomas:
More Kernels

I agree.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] krombopulos:
Does anyone know how to get status bar text items like the clock, data transfer indicator and the battery (in text mode) to persist in the status bar on the lock screen?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
MAYBE when cm14.1 nightlies start officially for the non caf version lol. It's double the trouble for me, and I don't see much benefit for it. I know I tweaked the stock TrueSight kernel more on the performance side, but using Synapse and a bit of reading around for kernel settings and I'm sure battery life can be increased.

To my knowledge it's not meant to in the first place. Clock is already there in the middle of the screen, and data transfer shouldn't be needed much since nothing is happening. Battery in text mode should work though (I just checked and it did). I can probably make data transfer show on lockscreen after a bit of tinkering, I'm not sure about the clock since it's kinda redundant.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] krombopulos:
It's absolutely the battery text indicator that I'm most interested in, the pattern I noticed was that all text items disappeared when on lock screen. Battery text indicator displays on lock screen when charging, I just discovered, but disappears when I disconnect the power.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Nexususer6969:
First of all, thank you so much the perfect rom you've made, performance and nearly everything is excellent. Only one thing is that whenever I update a new version, it keeps telling ' com.android.phone has stopped '. I've tried many times and then I recognized that newest versions can be flashed successfully when wiping all, including data. So after I re-flash, another problem came, and that is no root. Please help me.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] T[m]:
I would opt for the beer & movie mate. We all deserve to put up our legs and enjoy the start of the weekend after a rough week. I'm sure everyone agrees and the fix can wait.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
Yup, system update hasn't been added yet (if ever). I'll likely add it back at some point when everything is stable.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] trysys808:
Thanks for replying!

I read up on Delta updates and was trying to figure out how I would be able to get them (the updates) if I don't have a system updates menu option. It all makes sense now
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dark_Eyes_:
New build is up!

Guys, I just got lucky, and someone else fixed the build for me, so I was able to release a new build. It has the NFC fix, and it should be better on video recording/playback. Let me know how it goes.

There's no OTA or Delta Updates included yet, as Dark_eyes_ stated a few posts back, my friend. :silly:

So you can wait until your hammerhead melts into your fingers with best wifi on the whole wide world....

-> Go to recovery and flash the zip dirty over the current darkROM Oreo build, and you are good to go.

Can't say a thing to battery consumption. Because I always change between 4-5 Oreo Roms. But it's not bugfree yet. That's clear. For example BT voice calls distortion is still present in all oreo roms.

I need some help, tried to search this and other LOS15.1 based ROM topics but no luck.

I clean flashed the 20180307 two weeks ago and I just downloaded the 20180323 build. When I try to flash with TWRP (latest version 3.2.1-1), it gives some output and then gets stuck on the following phrase:

detected filesystem ext4 for /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/filesystem

the activity animation stays on and the phone heats up, but stays like that for more than 10 minutes and nothing else happens.

The md5sum is correct, I tried flashing /system mounted and unmounted. Really don't know what else could I do besides a clean flash - not possible at the moment.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] trysys808:
I had the same problem (tried flashing multiple times and it would freeze up) and ended up clean flashing

(I figured it would be quicker than trying over and over again)

Go to wipe.....select the desired partition/s ....click on advanced wipe.....change partition to ext4.....reboot into recovery....DONE!

Remember that when u change "system" partition to ext4...all your internal storage will get wiped......so it is recommended to flash the rom via usb-otg after changing "system partition"
