Sorry for posting here, but according to the forum rules I can't post directly in the topic.
I have a wellknown trouble with the market:
I'm running mik's CM port for my p500, the first day everything went ok, but today I noticed that every market installation fail with 3 crashes:
com.android.vending
com.android.media
com.android.vending
(in this sequence).
I tried to clean the application data, then I switched the language to English (US), then cleaned the data's another time (also with titanium backup).
No way, my market still crashes and seems that there are no solutions apart the two I just tried...
Anyone has suggestions?
I need to reach mik to let him know this bug!
What CM are you using? On it 7.2 you must install newest GAPPS... they seems only one compatible with it for now.. ON 7.1 miks install temasek GAPPS
I'm using mik's 7.1-thunderg, I didn't installed any gapps the gapps downloaded themselves the first run of the phone.
There is a way to obtain 7.2 on my optimus one? I found only mik's cyanogen that is "vanilla"!
By the way, I installed temasek market but it continue crashing, so I can't install anything...
I tried the old market and also the news market (from themasek) but it continue crashing! Now I'll try to use the old one, in english, after reboot so I'll check if this is the same bug as signaled in CM forum
SOLUTION!
I found a solution!
Searching with adb logcat I found the reason of com.android.media crashing!
I was using profiles to deny (or turn on always) vibration! Market doesn't like it, and crash (It's strange but it will crash also with vibration turned on!)
So the definitive solution about the strange market crash is simply:
create a custom application group with market in
set for this group the vibration on "system setting"
Go and enjoy your market!
I put the line of the logcat here, so other people will find this solution! (thank you google)
java.lang.SecurityException: Requires VIBRATE permission
I'll try to post this solution in the cyanogenmod thread but if I can't (for permissions) can some mod do this for me?

security settings crushing, and all is sloww
Hi there all
I have flashed this ROM 2 days ago and found it very good and fast.
Today i have played with the security (lock screen & apps permissions), i have chooses the face recognition for the screen-lock and a default security for all new apps.
Now all is so slow and cannot get into the security settings, it is crushing !
Please help.
I do not want to factory reset, i have already restored all my contact and apps, do not have the time to do this again.
Thank you all
My huge thanks to the developers of this amazing ROM. I really appreciate your work. With Apolo Kernel works perfect! Thank you.

Eli,
I've been using the v8st for over 20 days now and have not come across such an issue.
But I have a different issue though:
The bluetooth mic levels when connected to the car's audio system renders very low voice that the person on the other end can't hear me so good.
Hope someone with a similar issue like yours' should be able to help you soon!

Hi
Even by doing as per Post# 4, Wallpaper gets replaced but does not work.
Going by wallpaper details found MD5 error.
Few more issues on my device, new to this ROM. Flashed 2 days back.
1. How to increase the FONT & ICON size in Status bar, Key board letters are too small, notifications are small.
2. Screen and around the camera gets heated, during this time battery drains super fast.
3. BBS is not working, error message "Battery service could not be contacted"
Please help me with the above issues.
Thanks in advance

What post #4 are you talking about? What does not work? What gives you an MD5-error. Please be more specific.

You need to change the display density setting. Open the file /system/build.prop with a text editor and search for the line ro.sf.lcd_density=182. Change the value to something else. Bigger numbers give you bigger icons and fonts. The Default for SGS2 Roms is normally 240, Neatrom uses 182, that's why everything is smaller than on most roms. If you want to use 240, you can also flash this ZIP in Recovery: View attachment Density_240_v8.0st.zip. It's just a modified build.prop for 8.0st. There are also apps on the PlayStore that can change the density for you, but I never tried them.

Without more info it's impossibe to know what is draining your battery. You need to find out the app that gives you trouble with BBS or similar app.

In Android KitKat, user apps are not allowed to access battery stats. It's part of Androids security policy. There's two ways to fix it:
Get Xposed Installer and install the Xposed Framework. Then, download the module Enable BatteryStats Permission - voila! Since Xposed is simply awesome for other tasks as well, I recommend this method.
If for some reason you don't want to use Xposed (e.g. if you use ART), then you have to convert BBS to a system app. There's several ways to do so, like Titanium Backup or Link2SD... However make sure that BBS gets installed in /system/priv-app/, and not in /system/app/, or else it will still not get the necessary rights.
Hi is there a way to reboot into recovery except from the home + volume + wake and also which Version of Apolo is the right one 7.1 CM?
Battery life?
Hi guys, was checking this rom out and it looks awesome!
How's the battery life though?
I'm currently on Resurrection Remix and the battery life when I have wifi on is really poor.
I'm basically looking for a 4.4.4 rom that gives maximum battery life.
Also are there any kernel recommendations?
Thanks!
Weird battery behaviour
Hello Guys. I met a very strange issue.
After flashed the ROM, the battery indicator acts very weird.
When the phone is fully charged, and I remove the charger. after reached 85%, and when the battery is gong down, the indicator is going up from 85% to 90 %.
Anybody met this ? and how to resolve ?
I already calibrated the battery, but the problem still on.

Try another batterry. I was facing the problem with an almost dead battery. With another one it's fixed.

I'm running this with Apolo V0 kernel and I'm satisfied (on original Samsung 2000 mAh battery):
~33% a day of normal usage
~1% an hour idle (data on, sync on, location on)
~0.3% an hour night mode (data off, sync off, phone online) - translates to ~14 days of runtime
Have tweaked wakelocks/services.

1. You can configure advanced power options to be able to reboot into recovery from a running ROM
2. Yes CM is the right Apolo for NeatROM (having superuser integrated)
Having troubles with wifi connection since this morning... My S3 and laptop works just fine but with s2 cant connect to apps like viber, whatsapp or hayday

I had the same problem of battery drain because of mediascanner service running all the time and i didnt know the exact fix but i have read somewhere that formatting sd card would help fix this and it did, Anyway i didnt use much of my extSD so i removed it for now!! And no battery drain observed with mediascanner service
I can't get this to run on my phone. After carefully following the instructions my phone is stuck on the first boot screen with the yellow exclamation mark. Strangely it seems like I have TWRP installed which I can't get rid of. Even after installing the CWM linked to, the next time I manually enter recovery TWRP opens.
Update: Sucessfully installed a Cyanogen based ROM instead. Shame, I would have liked to try this one.
GAPPS not working?
Hi there, please help me. I can't get gapps to work/install. I first flashed beta version...nothing, then tried the stable version and only Chrome appeared in appdrawer. I still can't access play store (from the Nova Launcher menu option), the browser that came with the NeatRom doesn't start.
The rooting, flashing of the rROM etc all went well, according to the instructions, the only thing was that I couldn't format /preload as there was no such option in the CWM recovery. Could that be the problem maybe?
Please tell me, what am I missing here...

No, Preload is not used in AOPS Roms, only at Sammy ROMs.
maybe your download of GAPPS or ROM is corrupted, check the MD5 file to see if there is any thing wroing.
Clear Cache from Recovery
Try to reboot
Try to re-install.
Somtimes something goes wrong and then you have effects as you mentioned.

Sorry, but I gave up over AOSP and flashed the "stock" NeatRom 6.4 w/o any problems. Runs great!
Still, when I was searching for a solution, I found out, that it is possible that I didn't make a nandroid backup of /preload (when I was still on rooted stock samsung ROM - before flashing kitkat cwm and later AOSP NeatRom). I read that in the CWM recovery that comes with Siyah kernel - which I used to make a nandroid backup - you have to manually select to make a backup of the /preload part. in addition to all others... And i really didn't find a file with "preload" in the nandroid backup folder that I copied to my PC. If so, I am suppose to have trouble when/if going back to stock samsung ROM? If that is the case, maybe it would be good to update the guide for flashing the KitKat-based AOSP NeatRom. I don't really care right now, because I really like the stock NeatRom...I just hope it'll work...
NeatRom 8.0st and TWRP - no restore possible
Hi all,
hope, one of you will be able to support me ?
I'm not able to restore any of my TWRP backups done with TWRP 2.7.1.0 which came with the ROM.
All backups went well and were flagged as 'successfully'.
However, trying to restore one of them failes every time. It looks like after restoring SYSTEM and starting with DATA, it stucks.
One 'failed', no error code or any additional information.
I've a 32 GB SD installed on my i9100 and this is where I store all the TWRP backups.
Copying them to internal storage does not help.
Any ideas ?
Thx in advance,
BR,

hi! just want to ask if you will also develop this rom for a300f? i'm very interested in trying this out.
I try ASAP and let you know how it goes for me !
Edit 1 : All right, a few things I noticed. First it boots, perfectly though.
- Text size/display size is really bigger than on stock rom, surely something about screen definition the rom estimates ? Anyway I feel like using a phone for very old people with HUGE text
- Impossible to activate WiFi. It says "activation in progress" but no luck. I tried to replace wlan.ko & pronto_wlan.ko with genuine ones from stock (workaround on mygalaxya rom allowing ril to work) to see if it's better, but then noticed that there's no such files in your rom (systeme/lib/modules and system/lib/modules/pronto usually)
- Preview bug in photo app (front & rear) but pictures are fine and well taken (workaround : use another photo app is fine)
- After doing not so much, the phone is hotter than ever before in months of using stock. Something burning... CPU related I assume ?
- SMS OK but MMS not sending (I didn't dig into APN and so... maybe nothing)
- calls OK
- Google Play does not connect (says to check connection which is working 4G speed everywhere else) / I could restore my apps via Titanium and use them with no trouble
@dcfied : you'll find a pretty working build for A300F right here. Don't own the terminal but feedback sounds good !
Going to try this in about an hour, one question: do I have do not install gapps ?

Thanks for reports!
- Noticed the same thing with text size, set DPI to around 260 as a workaround
- Wifi is known to be broken, I'll see what i can do about it
- You mean, if you use the builtin camera app the screen is garbled but the pictures are OK?
- I dont know about phone getting hot.
- What GApps did you use?

Hey ! I don't know (or remember...) how to change DPI, could you guide me ? In dev prefs ?
I confirm, preview in photo app is buggy, like little vertical lines all along the screen, reacting to what should be on screen. Looks like a graphic render issue, like a broken graphic card on Mac (souvenirs...)
I used GoogleApps_LL_CM12.1-20151310.zip (yeah, 13 for the month... but downloaded on nov 10th) but if you have a Gapps link to recommand I'll flash it again from scratch.
Anyway, happy to help as I'm not a dev at all, so feel free if you need anything, hoping it will falls under my jurisdiction

You can change DPI in Settings -> Display & Lights.
So if you take a picture, is it full of vertical lines or is it normal?
Could you try OpenGapps to fix the Play Store? http://opengapps.org/
Ok, it's stable enough, wlan.ko should work about that problem, it went in deep sleep only one time, the battery is ok @mooon3, I didn't know if it crashes when building dalvik

- I changed DPI, much much better Maybe you can put it to default on your next builds ?
- For pictures it shows disturbed preview but the result of the taken picture is all right. I tried two alternative apps and preview & capture are fine. @mygalaxya rom has the same issue and workaround. Could not guess what causes this ! You can also change the resolution of the picture (I just put 6mp in 16:9) and it displays well...
- For Gapps, my bad, maybe a time for it to put it together, without intervention it now connects and updates apps as it should...
- @zDemoox : No issue while dalvik cache is building for me. Did you got some ?
- Also @zDemoox : I also wanted the wlan & pronto replacement to try to fix wifi... but didn't find any wlan.ko or pronto folder in system/lib/modules... ???
- And at last a very little bug (I don't know if you can call it like that) but sometimes the top panel (I don't have the english word but this menu you grab from the top of the screen) is a little buggy and difficul to grab. I need to grab it a few times, going from the very top to the very bottom for it to fall and display menu...
Edit 1 : I may have forgotten to thank you @evilracer123 'cause whatever bugs I'm reporting here as @zDemoox said, it's impressively smooth and stable for a very first release !
- Also another thing : as the vibrations of this phone are very strong, is there anyway to modulate the powerness of vibrating ? On stock rom there is something like that in sounds settings, I just put it half way... I didn't find anything like this on CM ?
Edit 2 : I got a few FCs for com.qualcomm.timeservice too

I use ES Explorer but I guess it's more a root matter than a file manager one... You have to access system files. Obviously while you're still on stock rom, as these files will be deleted when flashing CM. But again, I didn't find the same files on the CM version, the .ko are not there, so I wasn't able to replace anything... Surely it goes somewhere else under CM operating system... but I didn't investigate so far !
And yes, no MTP for me neither but Bluetooth (with mac at least) !

I can't wait for stable!!!
Thanks for making this. Can't wait to try it out. I know how to install the custom rom and everything but I just wanted to see if anyone could answer something for me before I try to give it a go.
My handset is locked to my carrier (EE uk). When I was waiting for them to release the lollipop rom I looked into just flashing the BTU firmware onto my handset but I read somewhere that if you flash the unlocked firmware onto a locked handset it can cause issues with the modem or something like that.
The question that I have is that with the custom rom being designed to work for any handset regardless of carrier or region it is effectively an unlocked firmware so will I have the same issues when if I flash it over to my locked handset?
Hopefully someone can shed some light on this for me. I'm not worried if it won't unlock the handset for me as I'm quite happy with my current carrier, I just don't want the fact that I'm locked to a carrier to cause issues with the rom that I may end up reporting as bugs as I have no way of telling if they're being caused by my handset being locked or by the rom itself.
Thanks in advance

I'm sorry, but I have no experience on locked phones.
New build!
https://mega.nz/#!rRRQBADR!cuq-fQcX8sdhOE96ommLKsWs05vHIgQ9x7yd-1nBX7U
In this build, the wifi is fixed partially. To make it work, you must copy the module manually:
Install the rom
Enable ADB, Superuser and Advanced Reboot from Developer settings
Download the module: https://mega.nz/#!SAARXRyA!LQ6INnWKMZl35AaAZNmfMNzIhw95SsyTYCXyVcEJjbc
Transfer the wlan.ko file to /system/lib/modules folder, like so: (using your pc)
Code:
adb root
adb remount
adb push wlan.ko /system/lib/modules/wlan.ko
And lastly, you need to install the module. This has to be done on every reboot. (if anyone knows how to automate this I'm open for suggestions!)
Code:
(adb shell) insmod /system/lib/modules/wlan.ko
After this you should be able to enable Wifi. If not, long press power button and select Soft Reboot.
Sounds complicated, right? Actually it isn't
Ok no problem. If no one is able to tell me whether or not it's going to work with a locked handset then I'll just wait until I get it unlocked. I just don't want to install it and end up with bugs that I falsely report believing to be issues with the rom and then complicate matters for you. Thanks for developing this though.
Wow impressive work @evilracer123 ! I did not updated yet and as I don't have any PC for a while I won't be able to try the adb workaround you offer for wifi.
Nevertheless I found another little issue on your first build : when I'm in call, when I put the phone to my hear it shut down the screen but seems to not deactivate totally the touch detection as I open often some apps like calendar or mail... It seems to me that my hear touch the screen and affect what should appear on it regardless the screen display is off... Not sure but I always find myself in hazardous menu and apps when I finish my calls!
But it's really smooth and stable, I use it since this morning and don't want any minute to come back to stock ROM now!!! Thanks thousands times!
It's a weird problem, and today I finally at least got a repeatable effect. If my Oneplus One (Oxygen OS 1.0) is plugged into my pc while it boots, the device loads correctly, I'm talking no force stops, I can use my apps, but my baseband version is unknown, and no network devices will turn on / LTE / wifi / and i think bluetooth.
If I boot my phone while not plugged into the pc, the phone seems to take longer to boot, Instantly I get force closes, on poweramp, and gallery, (gallery repeats constantly). My nova launcher settings did not load and I am at a default nova launcher screen, however my wifi/ lte dos work and I can browse the internet and such.
I did a little more testing in this mode s
-My gallery force closes because it cannot read the database, I naved to the DB, and I couldnt open it either,
- I can't download things from chrome, they instantly pause
- If I plug it into my pc, I cannot copy files to the device
- also if it matters, it drains my phone insanely fast if I booted it this way
-This has been going on for months, and the trigger, seemed to be letting my phone completely die though idk why that would matter, then on reboot it would be in this broken mode,
I have been dodging the problem by using a twrp backup that works fine
I've tried many soultions oer the past few months with no luck, I was just recently search last night, and someone suggested a similar situation that had to do with a rooted phone and not read ext4 permission correctly, I dont know if that helps, but I just wanted to throw that in there
And finally, I know that this is a weird problem, and if my phone is this bad it might be worth an app backup / new rom / factory reset, which I have been looking into
so Some recommendations I've seen are Resurection remix, though idk which android build to get they have a LP, Marsh, and an N, I dont mind having the latest as long as my phone doesnt turn into a snail
CM 12.1 and Oxygen 2.1.4 are also recommened
Mostly I want quick settings customization out of my rom, which is why i have xposed on this phone for gravity box, cause oxygen0s didnt have it
I will provide as much deail as I can, and any more on request
Phone: Oneplus One.
Rom : oxygen OS 1.0 (LP 5.0.1)

It's a weird problem, and today I finally at least got a repeatable effect. If my Oneplus One (Oxygen OS 1.0) is plugged into my pc while it boots, the device loads correctly, I'm talking no force stops, I can use my apps, but my baseband version is unknown, and no network devices will turn on / LTE / wifi / and i think bluetooth.
If I boot my phone while not plugged into the pc, the phone seems to take longer to boot, Instantly I get force closes, on poweramp, and gallery, (gallery repeats constantly). My nova launcher settings did not load and I am at a default nova launcher screen, however my wifi/ lte dos work and I can browse the internet and such.
I did a little more testing in this mode s
-My gallery force closes because it cannot read the database, I naved to the DB, and I couldnt open it either,
- I can't download things from chrome, they instantly pause
- If I plug it into my pc, I cannot copy files to the device
- also if it matters, it drains my phone insanely fast if I booted it this way
-This has been going on for months, and the trigger, seemed to be letting my phone completely die though idk why that would matter, then on reboot it would be in this broken mode,
I have been dodging the problem by using a twrp backup that works fine
I've tried many soultions oer the past few months with no luck, I was just recently search last night, and someone suggested a similar situation that had to do with a rooted phone and not read ext4 permission correctly, I dont know if that helps, but I just wanted to throw that in there
And finally, I know that this is a weird problem, and if my phone is this bad it might be worth an app backup / new rom / factory reset, which I have been looking into
so Some recommendations I've seen are Resurection remix, though idk which android build to get they have a LP, Marsh, and an N, I dont mind having the latest as long as my phone doesnt turn into a snail
CM 12.1 and Oxygen 2.1.4 are also recommened
Mostly I want quick settings customization out of my rom, which is why i have xposed on this phone for gravity box, cause oxygen0s didnt have it
I will provide as much deail as I can, and any more on request
Phone: Oneplus One.
Rom : oxygen OS 1.0 (LP 5.0.1)
rooted: YES (SuperSU)

Hello, I have a Redmi Note 3 Pro running sMiUI (based on the Xiaomi.eu ROM) but this seems to be irrelevant.
while this strange behaviour doesn't seem to be limited to this device, being noted here and here, it does seem that the symptoms are the same.
In the SuperSU logs i found that firstly Whatsapp tried to gain root and was denied, followed by zygote requesting 3 times over the following few hours. The log for each is blank.
I have just rebooted my device and after unlocking whatsapp immediately requested root. Yet to see zygote request root again but I'll update you should it appear.
UPDATE: Whatsapp has again requested root.
UPDATE2: WhatsApp continues to request, however zygote has not. It appears to be happening every half-hour (ish)
U3: uninstalled WhatsApp, will see what happens at the half-hour mark.
Anyone know what's going on?
Also some probably irrelevant weirdness but I'll write it anyway given this only started appearing after this happened:
My phone did something weird earlier, I restarted, and normally on my ROM it just has a spinning little loading thingy in the middle of an otherwise blank screen, then goes off and reboots, showing the Mi logo, this time however it randomly showed a kinda-pulsating android logo shortly after the usually " spinning loading icon" and then continued to the usual Mi logo. Given I'm running sMiUI I've never seen it display a large android logo before like this. I just rebooted again and this behaviour was not repeated.
Try xiaomi.eu rom, or stock rom. Or might be you're just installed modified WhatsApp and zygote apk from untrusted source. I don't use sMIUI

The struggle I went through to get off of the vendor ROM, I'm not going back to stock. sMiUI was based on the Xiaomi.eu ROM, so the zygote is probably straight out of that.
I have installed WhatsApp from Google Play so I assume it doesn't get more secure than that. I've made no attempt to replace zygote, I don't really know what it does, something about starting apps.
The ROM I'm using doesn't seem to be remotely relevant to this, given it's happened on 3 different devices from different brands as I can see from the links I provided.
It doesn't make any sense. WhatsApp is used to not request any root permission unless it's infected by mallware. You can try to use xiaomi.eu rom alongside with 3rd party mods instead of use pre-moded rom from sMIUI.

Indeed, last WhatsApp update was 13th December, so I would have seen this happening before today if it was in normal WhatsApp. This is nothing to do with sMiUI, I've had this ROM installed for many months now with no issues.
And as previously stated it is based on Xiaomi.eu ROM.
But yes my suspicion is malware, however it's not specific to MIUI or any varients as this was also occurring on a Galaxy S5 and another device.
Everyone: Please read the entire thread before replying so I don't have to keep restating facts
Hey, i have same problem too, im using redmi note 2, today i get notif, whatsapp need access root, after several minute, zygote need access root too, now i deny that access at super su
first time root/customrom/kernel etc.
Ive had the same thing happen..First time I thought it was strange though and denied permision was with the zygote thing asking permission...ive granted whatsapp and whatsapp extensions permisson for example cause i thought that was just the way it worked. ive granted LMT permission and a couple more apps
thought it was more of a windows type "" do you trust this program to do things" type thing.
things is my, installation is pretty fresh. and I dont get where I should've gotten malware from
htcm8/Viperrom/elementalx kernel
bunch of file explorers (sdmaid /totalcommander) and terminals all from the playstore. Xposed installer and a couple modules that all seemed reputable with ongoing xda threads and downloaded from the original source. amplify/bootmanager(something with that maybe?)/chromepie/secure settings for a tasker profile/minminguard.
you see something we have in common on the phone?
phone is running fine..nothing strange. The zygote i got for the first time today and I denied and hopped on google...whatsapp is in my rootlog constantly. i see the greybox popping up every once in a while that root was granted. never thought anything of it.
today I installed termux ternimal from the playstore...maybe thats where the zygote su request comes from?

from what I see elsewhere the whatsapp extension module in xposed, which is a root app might have something to do with the whatsapp requests. I dont exactly know how these things work but the altering might explain app doing thing they normally dont do.
dont know about zygote...got it one time and it has not been back
Same here.
I'm on a fresh install and this zygote su request wasn't appearing until I reinstalled all my apps.
Another forum states that zygote is run at such a raw level that it simply would never request root.
I am for now denying su requests with little to no adverse effects.
Can anyone confirm for certain that zygote should never need to request root? Is there anyway to dig out the rogue source/apk when av apps are showing nill?
As I have nothing Whatsapp on my phone, thinking it may be an xposed mod. Might be a good idea for us to list are xposed mods so we can cross reference. Not sure?
