[Q] During audio/video playback the volume rocker and back button DO NOT WORK

Hello. the volume rocker button and the Back button do not work during any kind of audio/video playback. They function properly once I stop or pause the playback.
I can not get to the bottom of this since I uninstalled all xposed modules and apps that I think might have been causing this. I am running the "ERA project mod" along with viper4android. I know for certain the butons had been working with these mods running. I have no idea what happened
Any advice is appreciated

What I would advise you, is to make a proper backup, then wipe the dalvik cache, cache, system, reinstall the ROM and then try to put back the backup.
See if its working, if not, maybe one of your modules, when you uninstalled it, it messed with some files.
But I still think the first step is to backup your files and do a clean install.

Thanx for your suggestion...
Surely that would be my last resort.
I'm actually trying to avoid that and see if anyone with a similar problem actually found out what's causing it and found a way to remedy it.
It would also be great to actually know how to prevent it from happening in the future. Right now I have no idea thus I may run into the same problem after re-installing ROM

Bug Report: [ROM][WIP][PORT] CyanogenMod 11 M8 4.4.4 [BETA]

Hi there,
First off I would like to thank AngSanley for his work on the 4.4.4 CM 11 ROM, absolutely excellent development and keep up the good work. Hopefully I thought I would make a bug report here since i still can't post in the X development section:
1. Phone.apk problems:
a. Operator and Caller names coincide with each other (Issue was mentioned before in the thread however still looking forward to hearing from @AngSanley for a reply)
b. Repeated Missing Calls crash the com.android.phone process and the only solution is to call the missing call to get the phone app running again. To emulate that leave the call until it ends twice and see what happens
2. System Processes
In Jelly Bean and Ice Cream Sandwich you were able to disable system stock apps such as Browser, email, messages and it was possible to install the playstore apps as a replacement. I was wondering if it's still possible to enable that in the current ROM or it's not a bug as of the new releases.
Note: This also includes Trebuchet since I'm not currently using it.
3. Reboots in some cases disables the home button action in UDNB and prevents the lockscreen process from running properly which requires me to reinstall the ROM and Gapps while clearing cache and Delvik or by force stop and enabling lockscreen (which gets me to problem 2 sometimes).
Thank you again for the ROM and looking forward to hearing about upcoming updates with the ROM.

For the first issue, the problem is known. I mentioned it but it's difficult to fix.
For the third issue though, I found a solution. I disabled UDNB and installed Soft Buttons app. If the buttons crash, I disable them from the app and immediately enable them again. I reboot and... that's all!
(as for the second, I use some stock apps, so I can't tell you for sure)

Hopefully it gets addressed because it makes the phone literally unusable. The current list by AngSanley doesn't show it so I hope it's addressed to him.

No problem it's fine. The imitation of it can be made if you even disable messages for example. It shows immediately that the phone loses functionality especially in the lockscreen process.
I'm really looking forward to hearing from @AngSanley on these. Especially on the phone process issue .

(Note that you MUST disable UDNB from Settings > Apps first, because the phone will show you 2 navbars!)

Unfortunately I won't be able to do that since I just bricked my phone while formatting to the original stock version lol. I'm currently stuck on Nokia Emergency Connectivity and will be sending it to the Nokia care center next month haha. I'll be doing a fresh install when I get it back.
PS: I'm guessing no solutions for this problem outside the warranty am I right?

[Q] security problem, can not remove the Pin/pattern/password protection

Hi fellows,
So i bought that S810 beast and i am fully enjoying it
Only one of a sudden, i found a bug which i thought it might not be that annoying, but it turned out to be freaking me out
I can not remove the lockscreen protection back to the normal slide lockscreen for an unknown reason that i failed to discover.
It says,
Disabled by administrator, encryption policy or credential storage
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I have nothing in the administrators, my internal storage is not encrypted and i haven't touched that credential thing!
So i guess that the only way out is to "clear the credential storage"
Now the question is, is there any way out of this problem rather than factory reseting the phone or clearing the credentials?? If not, then can anybody tell me what are the side effects of deleting the credential certificates ? AFAIK it affects VPN stuff, which i never used on my phone and i am sure i won't use it! Are there any other side effects?
P.S. I am not rooted no need to void my warranty, yet
Thank You!

Well this issue was there before i install the apps
Only android device manager was there once i detected the incident
However i will try to remove them and see if there is anything changed

You could also reboot into safe mode, see if that solves the problem (which would indicate that an installed app is the source). To go into safe mode, press and hold the power button until the power menu appears and the touch & hold 'power off' until prompted to reboot into safe mode.

Navigate to /data/system/password or gesture (Pattern) and delete that entry depending on what type of password you have, reboot done.
If you are unable to get into the phone you will be able to do this using the file manager within TWRP.
PS: Not 100% if it'll fix the isse due to an app locking down the phone but it certainly removes the pin / pattern or password from your phone, so should work.

Ah i see, sorry mate, then no you need root access to be able to see lower level files.
In all fairness, I would say to back up your data and flash another ruu / rom, or even factory reset the device and be careful what you install, I'm assuming that it's something to do with an app you have installed or an email which needs to lock down your device.
I would do that, back up, wipe and go lightly with the installing of apps until you find the culprit, if that doesn't work then I would flash another RUU.
But I imagine it will.

Actually it turned out to be even better with Smart Lock options like trusted devices "when connected to my bluetooth speakers/handsfree" and trusted place "put my home address here" and also turned on the "body detection"
In this way i am prompted to type my PIN only when needed :good:

I've been using this with Ting. Seems more stable than the CM-11 build that I was using. Mms & cell data are the two things that do not work out of the gate for me. Wondering how this shapes up with Sprint. I vaguely remember cell data working, but I don't think the default mms app did. However, I was able to use a third party mms app for pictures.
If this works well for people I'll see what I can do about getting my changes pulled upstream.

What gapps version to use?
Thanks for providing this! I've installed it, to replace my cm-12-20151108-NIGHTLY-ls970.zip ROM. But I haven't been able to find a gapps download that will work with this (all Google services keep crashing) or fail to installed (Status 6). Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks!

gapps version
I was able to get this working. After battling through a barrage of pop-up messages telling me that various google apps had crashed (repeatedly for each one), I got into Play Store and did an update all. I had to uninstall/reinstall Keep and Messenger, and now all seems well.
The only thing I'm currently having a problem with is Titanium Backup, which keeps crashing no matter what I've tried.
Otherwise, all seems to be working well. I'm hoping that a the flaky problems I was having with the previous CM-12 ROM will be fixed with this version.

For whatever reason, no matter what version of CM12 I install, wifi does not work. I'll put in the password and then it times out "failing to authenticate." Have you run into this issue? Any known fixes?

My wifi is working. With the previous CM12 install I did have a problem where wifi would stop working after it was connected ("!" next to the wifi indicator), and I'd have to turn the wifi off and on again to fix it. I haven't experienced that problem yet with this build, though it's too soon to know if that problem has gone away.

Yeah I just went through unrooting and going to stock (where it worked fine) and now tried again to install without luck. I don't understand this problem or what could possibly be the issue at this point.
Edit: I have noticed that I'm not seeing my 5 GHz network although it was available in stock.

Profile switcher
It seems the option to switch profiles from the power button is gone. In the settings for buttons, there's an option to show "Airplane Mode", but not the profile selector. I do have multiple profiles created, so it's not because of that.

Hey geodosch, same experience here with pop up errors with one difference, I was not able to get into Play Store... I only have four com.google.* green droid icons, and after clicking them I get 'App isn't installed'. Which gapps did you install, any other tips?
Many thanks!

I tried quite a few, but the one I eventually used was downloaded from opengapps.org. Select ARM; 5.1; Micro. You may want to use a different variant based on your needs. The details of what's in each is here.
The filename for the one I used is 'open_gapps-arm-5.1-micro-20160304.zip'
I don't recall anything else special I needed to do. I hope this helps!

A couple of issues
I've found was appears to be a bug in the call log. Whenever I make an outgoing call, the call log shows an incoming call at the same time, with the ID of "unknown".
The other is an intermittent problem, which I haven't been able to determine how to reproduce. Sometimes the screen will go black, with the exception of the top status bar. I've had it happen when unlocking the phone, and also when opening a new app. Once this occurs, I've only been able to recover by rebooting. Holding the power button does bring-up the reboot screen, and as mentioned the status bar is fine, so it doesn't appear to be related to the display driver. I also took a screenshot when it was in this state, and the image is what the screen looks like: black with a status bar.

Sorry for the seemingly silly question, but where is the download? Following the link leads me to a wiki which leads me to a nightly build from mid 2015.

Did you click the "Downloads" tab near the top of this topic? (Between "Discussion" and "Reviews") There should be a link there to "cm-12.1-20160127-UNOFFICIAL-ls970.zip", dated 2016-01-28.

Thanks for the tip on where to find the download. This is actually a really clever thing to do; integrating the download into the forum navigation itself.

I'm having a lot of trouble getting Google Apps installed. I get the messages about the failures, but no Google Play store appears. I've tried on the latest "nano" release -- I'll try the exact file you mentioned.
One difference may be that I'm on TWRP 2.8.3.0 -- what's your recovery? Mine cries foul about no SELinux context support in the kernel, and I also noticed the Gapps blob said something about fixing SELinux permissions (it doesn't report success or failure). After installation there are 4 or 5 "google logo" icons that don't do anything, labeled com.android.google.whatever that don't open, instead claiming "XXX isn't installed" where XXX is the name of the app. Another poster here said the same. Anyway, I'll try that particular file and cross my fingers!
Edit: nope. Transferred the Gapps zip to the storage, booted into recovery, wiped everything except internal storage, flashed the ROM, flashed the GApps, reboot. Still get a bunch of green lifeless icons that won't load any app. What to do?

Ah, looks like I was right. It's the silly SELinux thing. The trick is to go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2524485 and set the phone to permissive. Which you can totally do because you can go into the build info and click build number until you get "developer mode" enabled and enable root access in apps. Then everything works perfectly, even from a seemingly glitched install, regardless of GApps version. Pretty nice eh?
I'm gonna let everything update and then try reenabling SELinux, for kicks.
[edit]Ah, rebooting screws everything up again until the SELinux changer finally loads and changes things to permissive. So it doesn't exactly stick at boot. Still looking for a permanent fix...

I'm running ClockworkMod 6.0.4.7. It's been a while since I originally installed the CM ROM, but I know I didn't have any luck with TWRP, though I can't say for certain that it was at fault... it may have been due to some other issue which I later fixed, and switching to CWM may have been incidental.

I've found that using the official CM recovery fixed my gapps woes.
On another note, GPS isn't working for me.

So, I totally didn't see any notifications that this thread was active. I've been working on trying to get Marshmallow up and ran into a dead end. So, I came here.

Same here, although it doesn't do it for all callers, I'll rebase on the newest code and see that does the trick.

I experienced the same. Although, I haven't in some time, since I stopped trying to use multiple profiles, that must contribute. adb still works as well, and I tracked the error in the code and it was right next to a TODO item. Go figure. If you see it again and are next to a computer, see if you can't get a logcat so I can check on that code again.

I read somewhere that you may need to get a lock in a ZVC build before flashing. Try that. It sounded like hog wash to me, and didn't work when I tried it. But, after updating the libs, all was fine. So, maybe both conditions must be met. On a positive note, I rarely have GPS enabled, but when I flip the switch, it comes on. So, it's not like you need to leave it on across reboots.

Glad to see you taking I look here. I really don't want to replace my Optimus G, since all phones now seem to be either low-end performance or over-sized. So I'm glad I can still keep mine going with these builds.

I hadn't tried adb before rebooting (Murphy's Law: whenever it happened I was often doing some time-constrained task, so I just rebooted as quickly as I could.) But the next time it happens I'll connect and check the logs. It's interesting that you mention multiple profiles, because it seems to have happened several times in my car, and I have profiles set-up to switch when the car bluetooth connects/disconnects.
If you're going to be poking around in the code, another issue that I've been having is the default app for the browser no longer seems to work consistently. I know this worked on an older CM12 build, and think it used to work on this one. But when something launches a browser I'm very often prompted for which one (Chrome or Browser.)

Android q beta 2

Anyone running Android Q beta 2 ? Can you make a comparison to Pie in terms of speed or apps that crash or hang? TIA

I have no apps crashing and no apps unable to start. Performance and battery are identical to Pie.
The Android Q is definitely a daily driver for me.
EDIT: The only single issue I have is that double-tap or lift to wake are not working.

Install TWRP. Flash Magisk (canary). Reboot into system. Instal Magisk Manager. Reboot and done.

Will this work on beta 2 ??

not work on Beta 2, bro

How best to backout of the AndroidQ beta2?
Installed but Android Auto is playing up so want to go back to v8

Can't mount system partition R/W on Marlin using TWRP 3.2.3-1 once updated to AQB2 (although I did a dirty update by removing the -w erase flag from the bat file before executing.) Guess I'll try nuking everything and rebuilding from scratch to see if the partitions will mount R/W to install Magisk...

Is anyone able to set his own mp3 ringtone on this?

Good Information:
Does it work with Android Q beta DP2 patch (marlin-qpp2.190228.023-factory-c262576d.zip)?

As you can see in this screenshot, it's working just fine. You have to install the latest Magisk canary build. TWRP won't work to do some backups, but you can flash it fine.

Been running Q2 for a few days and is a great daily driver. As soon as Nova paid was installed I have no complaints
and battery life has been excellent. Coming from the Essential phone rooted this has been a pleasant surprise. For 180.00 new
unlocked on Sprint this is a good deal. I also prefer the 16x9 screen and camera.

So, I have some weirdness going on…
I screwed up and tried to install the last P build after getting the ota beta Q update….i had issues (possibly of my own making).
Realized that trying to go back wasn’t going to work so I thought I would just reinstall the Q beta version 2, I downloaded it…all seemed well until I wanted to get to “settings”
I can pull the “curtain’ down and see a few quick access icons (wifi, Bluetooth, airplane mode…) but it won’t pull farther down (second swipe) to see other options and the “settings” gear at the top. I also don’t seem to be getting notifications, I hear them but don’t see an icon.
I also can’t get to the setting that allow me to transfer files.
Any ideas?
Edit: also can't get to my app drawer...
Edit 2: home button doesn't work either...
I got it, it must have been a bad "dirty flash", did a clean install, and all is working as expected...except,
I've got root but can't see my internal storage with ES file explorer (I can see it when using my PC) (or any other root explorer) and can't edit my build.prop (can't save it)

I did a clean flash, and had the same issue with the internal storage. It was weird though because chrome couldnt see it either, and kept failing to get permission to store files. Doing another Wipe now to try and resolve it...

Please let us know if it works....I hardly ever use my hot spot, but it's nice to know I have it for emergencies!

Wasn't talking about hotspot specifically.... The issue with Chrome is still there, still not able to download anything, as it pops up that it needs permission, I hit continue...and nothing. It normally gives the permission request notification here, but it does not.

Right, I don't think I've tried to download anything with chrome, I want the permissions so I can edit the buildprop file.
Having just checked, I also cannot download anything using chrome, Opera doesn't seem to have a problem, though. I didn't check any other browsers

After clean flash, still having the same issue with the downloads. Going to Solidexplorer shows that the sdcard partition never created a Download folder. Chrome also is completely not working now, so definitely rolling back until it's resolved.
