- Boot into Recovery
- Flash crDroid zip
- Flash GApps zip
- DO A DATA WIPE / FACTORY RESET

Does flashing this need a wipe if im coming from CM 12 unofficial Lollipop ROM?

New CM Theme App

From what I understand, cm team is not beginning themes until 12 is more stable. I may be wrong about this but it's what I understand.

The CM Team just announced a new Theme App for anyone running a CM-based ROM that will allow for full customization. From the sounds of it,
it should be out any day and I expect it will work on CM12.

Yea. Clean flash is necessary

I tried to install SuperSU and it sent me into a boot loop, same thing happened to me with the Vanir Comotio build as well, any ideas?

---

I am getting the "Unfortunately, DSP Manager has stopped" every time I open Play Music and when I skip tracks. Anyone know how to fix this? Also is Wifi Tether working? If not any workarounds?

---

Does anyone know how to fix the 505 error in play store when trying to DL an app

---

PA gapps - modular version?
Is the modular version the one to download for this rom? The rest of the versions seem to not have DL links

Bug report:
While playing music and using navigation in the car (using bluetooth), voice directions break in and lower the music volume as it should. Upon returning to music, the volume does not return to its previous level, rather it gets louder, overdriving the phone output and causing distortion. Pressing volume down on the phone once returns volume to normal levels.
Same scenario when SMS notification is received while playing music.
I'm working on a band-aid fix using Tasker, but it would sure be nice to have this fixed more permanently. This is a fantastic ROM, and other than this has been 100% trouble-free. Great work!
Currently running crDroid 12/19 build

---

This is not a question, but because I'm new, my post came here. I've been lurking around these boards since the HTC rezound, and I must say that the crDroid 12/30 build for the G3 is the fastest and most stable ROM Ive ever used. Great work! I signed in just to say that.

---

This isn't a question, just a quick note that the 12/30 build is running great so far. The only thing I could even think to add is the option to modify the DPI within your crdroid menu in settings. Other than that, Great Job!

Huge Battery Drain
Folks,
I like the overall look, features, etc. of the Rom so thank you for that. However, it took my battery from 100% to 11% overnight. I'm on the 1/2 version, did the usual wipe/factory reset, wipe cache/dalvik, etc. and then installed the Rom and Gapps.
Any suggestions before I flash back to CM11?
I'd greatly appreciate it.

Have you checked your battery stats to see if any app or process in particular is the culprit?

Keyboard Chooser Crash
On the newest Jan19 build I can't switch to alternate keyboards. They install but under settings/language&input when I press choose keyboard under current keyboard it crashes. I installed clean with the Jan16 PA Gapps. I just want to know if anyone else has had similar problems.

---

Not sure if anyone else is having this problem and I did not read it anywhere. But it could be just me but when I'm in a phone call and another call comes in I can transfer over but both people can't hear me and I can't hear them. What do you guys think. In on 1-20 build

---

flac support?
does this most recent update not support .flac files natively?

---

Loss of root
I've been using this rom since the very first release with no problem, yesterday I tried to update to the latest build but I wasn't able to reboot into the recovery using the terminal emulator. Then I did a root check and it seems I'm no longer rooted. I attempted to use stump to reroot my phone but it's giving me an unsupported device error. What can I do to install the latest build?

---

WiFi?
WiFi passwords are not being saved every time I turn the WiFi off the passwords get deleted.

crDroid Lollipop 5.0.1 ROM crashing my LG G3
Using TWRP 2.8.4.0 I ROMed my LG G3 (vs985) with crDroid Lollipop 5.0.1 01/19/2015 build) yesterday and everything worked great. This is the second time ROMing this phone for me - previous running ROM was Cyanogenmod cm-12 which I didn't really care for. My initial impressions was that this is a great ROM.
Not so sure about that now. Before going to bed last night turned off phone; got up this AM, turned on phone and everything turned to s**t. Greeted with a KP right at boot up. Rebooted and appeared to boot ok with my normal home screen appearing but then several seconds later either of two windows started popping up - "Unfortunately, Google Play Store has stopped." or "Unfortunately Google Play Services has stopped." Every time time I do an OK button press on the displayed window either that one or the other window immediately pops up. I can't do any actions to get out of this mess.
So my question is what can I do to get back to normal operation and put my VZW ROM backup back on the phone? Also, is there a bug in the crDroid ROM (at least in this build)?
Thanks.

Edit: managed to reboot into recovery mode and restore from my backup VZW ROM. But my original issue still stands: Why did everything go wonky? Also, the previous poster noted that Stump Root complained about non-compatible phone. Before doing my recovery I managed to launch Stump Root and got the same response. Stump Root doesn't like crDroid?
