I tried uninstalling and installing from store. used a backup from the last rom. All i get is
unfortunately youtube has stopped
Im running the KT kernel.
I keep trying to send a group text which gets converted to MMS and I get a message stating that it can't send it right now but will send it when service becomes available. I am on wifi but never had this problem with Alliance Rom. Do I need to change a setting? I'm using stock messaging. Could it be that I am using a different kernel other than stock?

I have heard other users report that issue before with 3rd party kernels in the main thread. I have tried the function on the stock rom (granted quite a while ago) and it did work perfectly. I would try flashing the stock kernel and see if the issue persists.
Didn't see there was this [email protected] forum. Awesome. I'm on v8. When I try to view pictures via stock gallery they won't auto rotate. Wondering if I'm missing something. Thanks

Try going to Settings/Language and Input/Voice Search and make sure that everything is enabled. On a side note, if you updated to the latest leaked lollipop version of Google Now or the launcher, Ok Google functionality is broken.

I just answered this in the main thread, it has to do with an init.d script running, check the main rom op.

Im going to look into this. I think it was from a simple mod that I did. I might post an updated version in a day or two.
Talking about lollipop goodness, how about adding lollipop Gmail ?
I'm using lollipop SMS messenger and tried the gmail but gmail force closes..
And great job BTW, thanks.

All enabled, I installed The Xposed Framework and Xposed Installer from your bundle, could that have messed it up?
Voice recognition works if I open the Google Search app and press the mic, also "Hi Galaxy" isn't working for Hands Free Mode.
Thanks for the help
I chose Google Launcher from the install menu when I setup the ROM, maybe that did it? I uninstalled it and restarted, still nothing.

Well if you are refering to OK Google command, make sure that you have the search widget on your home screen or you can enable the ok google anywhere option in Google now settings. Xposed by itself and any of the included mods should not really effect anything depending (of course) on what mods that you have installed. If You want t troubleshoot than just uninstall the xposed framework from the xposed settings and reboot. You can always just reenable it with the touch of a button. Of course the last case senerio that I would recommend is doing a full wipe (data, system, cache and dalvik) and doing a fresh install. That should definately fix the issue as long as its not hardware related (your phone itself).

I tried enabling from any screen, when it prompts me to say Ok Google 3 times it doesn't recognize it. So yeah, I'll try a fresh re-install.
I'll update!

A silly question; how to get project infinity lockscreen wallpaper back? It's not in wallpaper list...
I noticed you updated on the 24th is that the new release?
I'm on v8 and my phone refuses to screen cast to my Samsung TV.. My girlfriends unrooted T-Mobile S5 does it just fine every time, but mine just says "Connecting.." then drops it every time.. I'm stuck as to why!!
Any other download source than Mega upload?
For some reason my post about the above topic disappeared. Thought this was the Q&A forums but now I'm not so sure.
Was wondering if there was any other way to get this other than downloading an extension that is corrupt and wont tell me where its downloading my files at?
There are NO options to set as for my files to download and I will NOT let it download to C:/ drive just in case it opens a backdoor to allow viruses onto my computer. Call me paranoid all you want too.
Is it being hosted on any other sites that I can control what gets installed and where? Even Pirate Bay allows you to save files wherever you want too. I'm not asking for much. Just dont want my main drive to get whacked by some crap that I have to install just to download files "over 1GB in size you need our extension" . Ummmmm no I don't. Just download the file and allow me to put it where I want to put it. Thats all.
Google Drive or Dropbox account maybe?
Have the v4 and v5 as they were hosted on androidhost or something similar. But then you switched to Mega.nz for some reason. Don't know why. Thanks for anyones help in this problem.

Hello imbawind,
First of all thank you for your rom which is exceptional.
There are still some problems:
- 3 new patch does not work
- My GPS does not work
- Can not import Google calendar
- Is it possible to recover the email application and the weather widget / current base?
Well, that's all! The rest is wonderful! A great big thank you!
Sorry for my english, I'm French and I use Google Translation.
Alexandre
Mistake on my part but the GPS works perfectly!
No problem with the All patch Patch (1 ~ 5) that as of today!
It's a shame we can not be traced directly to the problems regarding the ROM (New Member: To unlock all capabilities of XDA ...)
Imbawind thank you for the updates!
It's a damn good ROM. Everything works fine, just a few remarks:
-Play store hides many compatible apps and show many more incompatible ones
-APNs are deleted, restoring takes forever and does nothing
-Notifications in upper bar can extend over center clock
-Pushing apps from pc market just does not happen right after flashing, needed some messing around
All the way, thank you!
uuhm OP I suggest you just PM him ^.^

And BTW I have been able to install both viber and whatsapp from their apk, but in Play Store it says they are not compatible with my phone. Don't know what this is for.
GPS is not that fast, but apps like GPS Aids help big time.

I mean have you ever used the desktop version of the market (now google play) to push apps to your phone by just clicking install? Well this didn't use to work at the very beginning, right after flashing your ROM. I don't know what I did, but after some time I was able to get it right.
When I try to connect the USB tethering, it connects, but immediately after appears the message USB connected and the tethering check box becomes unchecked.
Did this happened to anyone else?
Can this be a baseband problem?
My baseband is WKS2.
Please help.

Good evening imbawind,
Well, I just start from scratch and everything is really perfect. A big thank you.
I'll do a summary of procedures for the other:
- Creation ext4 (512M) and swap (256M) on the SD via CWM
- Complete wipe
- Installing the ROM Adrenaline
- Reboot and return on CWM to install the patch all-in-one
- Reboot and return to install the patch CWM Google Contacts and Google Calendar
It works well and the phone is 100% reactive
Now the only thing I miss is some application of the stock ROM:
- The application email (I do not like K9-mail and other)
- The news and weather widget the stock rom
- The google search widget
Is it possible to recover the apk for independent installation of the rom?
Anyway, thank you again.
Alexandre
Good evening,
To retrieve Email, GenieWidget, Memo and FMRadio, I tried to make a zip with an example of the ROM addons SanGingerAce * SL2 application but email does not work at all.
Is it possible to propose an addon of this type there?
Alexandre
Hello,
I just created an archive to restore the following applications:
- GenieWidget
- Email
- FMRadio
- Memo
The zip is for use with CWM (system mount).
Sincerely,
Good evening,
For a complete reinstall, my GPS does not work anymore. Unable to use Google Maps or Navigation.
Does anyone have the same problem?
In the previous installation, I use the patch separately and at last, I used the allinone ...
Hi there,
I have no 3G at all, cannot use the internet or play store due to no internet connection. Packet Data etc is all enabled and I have whiped data and re flashed numerous times but 3g will not work. If i press the power button on the side it says data network mode deactive but it will not change to active. Im on Orange UK. P.S All other roms work fine with 3g so Its not my phone/sim?.
Thanks
The second edition works great, apart from the gps, it still does not lock. Its not that i need it anyway, im using the baseband that came with the stock rom if that is required, wkt3 if i'm not mistaken. Apart from that all good, maybe it could be little less barebones but i can surely deal with flashing addons through CWM. As i said earlier, GPS is not essential in any way for me, but if there is a time i'll actually need it i'd rather have it working . Great stuff, love it.
Edit: Just for the sake of experimentation, i've reflashed the rom and installed maps from the store and it now locks! Dunno if it was a titanium backups fault previously, but i have to take my little 'accusation' back . GPS now works, will test again tomorrow when i'll be on the move. Great, great work, much better than the other, 'rival' rom
Why don't post at my rom thread?
I would be more than happy to do so, but my post-count is too low.

Just a suggestion : would u be kind enough to provide the stock music player as an addon, cause IMHO google music has some kind of sub par sound compared to the stock one. I've flashed beats audio and it has some issues on my earbuds, creative ep 600 something, thus not entirelly ****ty headphones. Just a suggestion, because i've 'stolen' the addon from stocklite 6.0 and it works like a charm.
Ps. I'll be glad to post in this topic, cause i'm a semi noob and i do not want to spam the forum with some useless comments and ask questions that can be answered by some quick google query. Keep up the great work

I've flashed this ROM yesterday and everything is smooth, battery life is also great. Just one thing is link2sd working on it? I tried but even linking all apps the internal storage is nearly full.
I guess something is wrong, look at Where's my water example:
Installed on SD card nice and easy, but when I try to link it I receive a message saying that there's no free space, so does it moves to somewhere in the internal storage?
I really could use some help here, and congrats to the devs for the amazing job
Hello everyone!
I have the amazing Galaxy Note 2 on big red. I have been a flash junkie for quite some time and have tried just about every flavor (rom) I could find. Some with more success than others.
After Google finally released 4.4 into the wild, I wanted to see what it was like. I am not able to build for this device but when time permits I do want to learn. I am a family man and our life is quite busy. Anyways...
I did a clean flash of the latest P.A. & Gapps so I would have a fresh start. Now, on to the quick and easy...
FLASH ALL THE THINGS!
Step 1 ~ Get the Google Experience Launcher:
PreBuiltGmsCore (Google Play Services 4.0)
Velvet (Google Search)
GoogleHome (Google Launcher)
FIX: Google Search Force Close:
Long press the home screen, select Settings. Select Voice. Select Language to change the default. Change to another language, I choose English – UK. Hit Home. Do a Google Search. Repeat the first three steps. Change back to English – US.
Step 2 ~ Grab the new apk's from the Nexus 5 dump:
Calendar (v201308021)
Clock (v3.0.0)
Email (v6.0-893803)
Gallery (v1.1.40304)
Gmail (v4.6.1)
Camera (v2.0.001)
Hangouts (v2.0.012)
Keep (v2.0.50)
Google Keyboard (v2.0.19003.893803a)
Step 3 ~ Pimp it out!
Grab the flash-tastic kitkat sounds and font's from here!
Profit!
Say thanks to any dev that has ever been helpful! They are what makes this whole shindig possible.
A quick note:
I have compiled these links and information from various sources across the interwebs. I do not claim any of the links as my own as this is simply intended as a resource for others.

Didn't have time to flash this clean with my daily driver but it was cool while I used it. The Google search kept force closing even after I did your fix it would work for an hour then fc but again I didn't flash a clean ROM with pa gapps. Is it absolutely necessary to flash Pa gapps?

Not to my knowledge. Others have stated they have had issues while some haven't. I may have been one of the lucky ones. So far it works great. Occasionally, there is a slight delay but it is not often.

I flashed a 4.3 rom and tried the hangouts again. Everything works except the pics. They send and receive fine, it's just half the time they wont load for me to see, just a black box. Same thing on my TW rom. Darn it, I want hangouts for my sms!!
I have hangouts working perfectly with jelly beans build 22. No black boxes for pics, no force closes. Weird how it's touch and go for everyone. I did nothing fancy to get it working either. Followed instructions from another post. It's very important to reboot after installing. That solved my initial issue of hangouts stuck on connecting for video chats.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention I am running this and it is awesome. Everything seems to work except for me I am having issues with GPS and then if i send a new message to someone in hangouts it never gets received. If someone sends me a message then i can use that conversation in hangouts to chat with them.
I want to believe its an issue because of my google + account.
If anyone uses the email app for work/exchange mail, they will need to push the exchange services apk to the system/app/ folder.
Edit: Fixed that name violation with my google+ account and hangouts messaging works perfect now. If only we could fix gps

I had many FCs especially Google+ which would bring all else to a stand still. I resorted to flashing my nandroid backup and chalked it up to experience. I t did give me a taste of the new launcher which was interesting.
Hey guys,
I really wanted the "Ok Google" from home like I have on my Nexus. After doing this, you can press the home button to wake the device up and then simply say "ok google, remind me to talk to my boss when I get to work". It takes specific versions of the apps to make this work and I located a combination that wiill do the job.
You will need:
Google Play Store installed
Google Search installed from Play Store.
A copy of ADB
Installation
Un-tar.gz this file with whatever program you use for file compression, to a folder called "GoogleLauncher"
Navigate to the "GoogleLauncher" folder,
Using your copy of ADB, type "adb remount", then "adb push *.apk /system/app"
Go to Settings>System>Accessibility>Quick Boot and disable Quick Boot
Reboot your watch.
Conclusion
This worked for me. If you're having problems or you'd like this turned into an app you can download and press a button to perform the tasks above, let me know.

On my S2, Google Now is both part of the Google Launcher and Google Search. For those of us running Loki's EnSec + Operative, does the Google Launcher below replace SmartLauncher as the home action? In other words, are we giving up SmartLauncher / WP8 Launcher / OUI2.0 to get Google Now?

What about making it a flashable zip? Operative includes TWRP, so we should be able to flash system APKs.

Or just download and install the apk?

Jaskru, I was wondering the same thing. I did what you suggest above back in February, and the OK Google launcher has been an option ever since. Works better than typing, for most stuff.
I am otherwise on unrooted stock, though I do not suggest others use their TrueSmarts unpatched at all.

I remember when we were first trying to do it before Loki came out with the patch + operative we had to push services (velvet.apk) as a system app... Now, when you get the device and install Loki's patch (+operative I think) or Dees rom that has that stuff in it too you have the up to date velvet.apk as a system app. And, of course you need the search.apk too.
That's where I was coming from. If someone is going to try and push an apk as a system app, they may as well just run Loki's script instead. Thanks for sharing though.
Hey @AdamOutler, Have you seen any differences with the battery life? Thanks for the Post, I got it setup the first try. I was just curious as to what I should expect?
Update: For a simple launcher, this is pretty nice. The apps and the drawer fit nicer then Apex did, even with a ton of setup. Smart launcher is nicer than apex, but there's a lot of setup as well. I just launched the Now launcher and it just worked. My apps look nice and the drawer is clear and easy to read. Now all i want is for my watch to do the notifications like the android wear demo!
you need a computer to run this correct? for the adb part of it? any change you guys can post a screenshot of your launcher so i could see how it looks prior to installing it later when i get home. been switching between nova and wplauncher8

I remember when we were first trying to do it before Loki came out with the patch + operative we had to push services (velvet.apk) as a system app... Now, when you get the device and install Loki's patch (+operative I think) or Dees rom that has that stuff in it too you have the up to date velvet.apk as a system app. And, of course you need the search.apk too.
That's where I was coming from. If someone is going to try and push an apk as a system app, they may as well just run Loki's script instead. Thanks for sharing though.

Stop trolling my thread. You're wrong and now you're looking for loopholes. No, its not in the operative patch. I don't create threads for no reason. Judging by your Post to Thanks ratio, you post unhelpful comments like this one all the time. Just stop it. You're being unhelpful, cluttering the thread, and adding misleading information.

Hey @AdamOutler, Have you seen any differences with the battery life? Thanks for the Post, I got it setup the first try. I was just curious as to what I should expect?
Update: For a simple launcher, this is pretty nice. The apps and the drawer fit nicer then Apex did, even with a ton of setup. Smart launcher is nicer than apex, but there's a lot of setup as well. I just launched the Now launcher and it just worked. My apps look nice and the drawer is clear and easy to read. Now all i want is for my watch to do the notifications like the android wear demo!

Yeah, it's battery life appears to be the same or better. I'm getting 70% by the end of the day on wifi with vibration and sound on.

It just looks like a standard Nexus AOSP launcher with a 4x4 grid. It's small, but usable.
Wasn't trying to troll Adam. Was just participating. Guess it was just magic then for me when I flashed the patch and dl and installed the apk with no issues. Sorry for sharing my experience with you.
Is anyone getting a substantial amount of google search crashes since setting this up?
I have been using Google Now as one of my three alternative launchers for over a month. It has never crashed. I say, "OK Google.....launch Tapatalk" and it does. "OK Google....call susan" and it asks me whether to use Phone or Skype (Skype started working for me on the TS after some recent update), then places the call.
To enable this, I followed the same guide I used to get Google Now onto my Nexus4 before KitKat was released for it. Best I can remember I just side loaded a couple of apk's using a guide on some android web site like Android Police maybe. It just worked, appearing as a launcher option with the other two I already had in place.
All this was on my stock insecure unpatched 1/8/1900 with the shipping 20140120 firmware and Google Play side loaded as usual.
I've got screencaps ! They are on the TS though, and I cannot type on that thing hardly still.

Lost my notifications launcher
Hi everyone,
One thing I noticed when I switched to this launcher: no notifications bar on the top. Did anyone else get this? Something to think about if you're going to make it your default.
Has anyone installed and tried Google Dialer on this phone yet? If so which apk did you use? Any problems?
What google dialer are you talking about? It already has the stock dialer from aosp on the phone.

Has built in caller id and you can type in names of nearby places to call stores and such.
I have and works perfectly.

Is there anything special needed? Root? Disabling the stock dialer?
No, I have it installed but I have 2 phone apps in app drawer, you can't disable the phone app that comes with the phone.
Just tried it. Moto assist does not work using the Google dialer. So when I'm home, the phone no longer let's me answer the phone with voice activation. I use that more than I'd use the Google dialer features, thanks for posting the apk though.

Thanks for the link and info!
Any time I do the location search at the top of the dialer in the APK I get a force close of the dialer. For instance I can type "Home Depot", as soon as I press on the result to select it I get a FC.

I'm pretty sure you need more than just the dialer apk to get that functionality.
I was looking for a way to have that functionality as well, and after a little research I found out that the location search on the dialer is an exclusive feature for Nexus and Google Play devices :crying: . I had that on my Galaxy S4 GPE and I liked that feature too. Found a post on Android Police explaining on how to make it work on other devices, but a lot of bugs can happen.

I've updated to Android 5.0 out of the box when I got my phone few days ago. - This morning I've installed the 1.1 Dialer APK linked in this thread, however, something did not work, when I pull up the app info on the only icon in the drawer it tells me version 5.0-10.
However, if I go into Settings > Apps > (Downloaded Tab) I see Dialer 1.1 is installed, under (All) I still see Dialer, and version lists 5.0-10 - The 5.0-10 is the stock moto one for Android 5.0, and this one does not have the caller ID, reverse look-up.
I might try disabling the 5.0-10, but from what I understand, that messes with the phone in a big way?

I'm not sure what can happen if you disable the stock dialer app, maybe prevent you from making/receiving phone calls if you don't have another dialer app installed? That's just my guess though, never actually did it to check. Were you able to make the location feature work?

I was unable to get the Caller ID to work, the phone shows me that they are both installed ( Settings > Apps ) - however, the one that came with the stock/factory ROM is preventing the 1.1 version for loading/showing at all in the apps list, so short of disabling the stock one (which I understand is not something one should be doing), I can't even open/access the offloaded one (Dialer 1.1)
I might get brave and disable the stock dialer, see if the Dialer 1.1 surfaces in the apps list.

I think that no major issues should arise as long as you just freeze the app and not uninstall it with titanium backup, but again, that's just my wild guess haha. Anyway, leave us posted about your findings.

OK - Got it Working!!! - Not Really, it crashes.
Step #1 - Download/Install the APK from this post
(will need a file manager to browse the phone to where the APK was downloaded to)
Step #2 - Create shortcut for Google Dialer 1.1 that you just installed using QuickShortcutMaker
Detailed instructions are HERE - Start at Step #3 on that page.
(Stock Dialer should be the only one showing in app drawer, you need to make a shortcut for the Google Dialer 1.1)
Step #3 - Win!!!
Some Pictures as Proof in Puddin
Stock Moto X Lollipop 5.0 Dialer / Settings
Nexus Android 5.x Dialer (Dialer 1.1) / Settings / Results
Google Dialer 1.1 shortcut above Stock Dialer shortcut.
Since trying this app initially, I've rooted my phone, and I've tried to follow steps outlined in (http://htc-one.wonderhowto.com/how-to/install-new-kitkat-4-4-3-dialer-your-htc-one-0155515/), specifically Step 2 - Where the app is installed in /system/priv-app/ folders - I am sad to report this does not work still on MotoX
As previous users suggested, there are probably those other services the Dialer depends on that need to be installed.
I'll update if I find a solution.
I don't know if it matters but I had a Nexus 6 before getting my Moto X. The Google Dialer was version 2.0. I didn't grab the APK before returning it but I'm sure it could be pulled from the factory image.
I was unable to make this work, root/non-root.
Got it working, here -http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/themes-apps/mod-google-dialer-messenger-pure-edition-t2982408
Hello, Does anyone know how to manage the apps in multiwindow. I would like to get rid of some of the stock apps in there with some apps that Ive dwnladed from the play store. I am rooted, and running a custom recovery with ZV6 rom.
Thanks
Also, have another quick question that doesn't really pertain to multiwindow but I hate to start a new thread for just one question. Is our G3 capable of using the new wifi frequency? I believe its the 802.11ac I googled this but have not been able to find the answer.
Also, I checked enable voice recorder in I believe in G3 tweaksbox but when I make a voice recording and try to play it back, it keeps saying unsupported file type. What do I use to listen to my recording?

For you wifi and voice recording question, I dont know about that. But as far as multiwindow apps, I you want it to show ALL of your apps instead of just the stock ones...you have to go to build.prop and its a line that says "persist.splitwindow.support_all" and change it from false to true. That way you'll get all of your apps to show, I dont know about it NOT showing certain ones, but at least that way you'll get more than just your stock apps in split window.

Not sure what to say.
here's the thread from XDA on it:

Maybe there is a solution there for you?
Just to let you know, after reading the thread myself, I did not get the app from the playstore, I downloaded the free version (apk file) from the thread above. and installed it to my phone.

You don't need to use the Flex multiwindow. We have it on our phone. I've already made the mod on both Barren and BarRin.
I made a flashable build.prop for ZV6 It has multiwindow and some other tweaks. If you want to use it it's here. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95784891001614835

Why not just change the line in build.prop instead of downloading an app? Its like....simple
