I don't want to be a prick, but you can't put gapps in a oasp (cm) based ROM, for the simple reason that you are not licensed by Google...

Background data
Hey,
I was using the 5.0 ROM in your other thread (on a T-Mobile variant) and noticed very high background data usage for the stock browser. I had only viewed a single webpage and than went to sleep yet it used 158 MB of background data. Just reporting it to ya.
GPS wouldn't turn off either as you can see from the SS.

Thanks for letting me know...already fixed the AOSP browser issue (by replacing it with chrome) and found that some library components in the system partition were missing causing GPS to act a little weird (working on a fix)
After getting it, do I need to install a gapps? If yes, which one?
Running great on my s5 except the camera which was pointed out in the op. Thank you I'll continue to use this and wait for cm to iron out the few issues .. Thanks for the lollipop build .

When i flash i get a mount error
Mount: Failed to mount /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.
1/by-name/userdata at /data: device or resource busy
Edit: It still flashes but i just wanted to point that error out.
I don't have a file browser/manager app?
Also, the Dutch translation of "Type a name or phone number" looks really weird in the dialer app, it's so long it's stretched to the next line, but the search box doesn't expand.

Since Evervolv 4.0.0 is getting pretty usable for the good old Droid Incredible, I thought it was time it had its own thread. These builds are still considered experimental. If the Evervolv team decides that things are stable enough to turn on nightly builds, I will update the OP and stop posting my own builds.
If you have a problem, I'll listen but don't necessarily expect me to fix it. It's not that I'm grumpy, I'm just not that good.
Working:
- Calls / sms
- WiFi
- Mobile Data
- Camera
- sdcard and emmc access from phone
- USB Mass Storage for sdcard and emmc
- ART (Use at your own risk)
- A bunch of other stuff
Not working:
- Video camera
- MMS
- Video hangouts
- Probably more stuff
This ROM is now part of xda DevDB!

Many thanks also to the Evervolv team.
And finally, thanks to all the brave souls who test and run this ROM!

I've been using TWRP 2.6.3.0 (latest official build for the inc) so far with no issues. Not sure why we haven't seen updates beyond that. Evervolv supports flashing on older recoveries so it's not that big of a deal, at least for now.

Upgraded TWRP and now it works properly. Has anyone tried ART on this device? Does it work, and is there any benefit?
Also, is there any way to add to the options drawer (for example, disable auto rotate)?

Please don't use bricked to refer to a recoverable issue. A wipe and reinstall fixes this issue.
Soft bricked is fine meaning the device won't boot but is recoverable. Bootlooping is usually referred to a device that is endlessly trying to boot.
I don't know the reason ART won't work. I don't recommend it. The cache rebuilding alone might take an hour after enabling it so it may not even be a true brick.

Yeah torch just FC's, there are torch apps on Play Store that work though.
Is rendering still sluggish? That (and the wallpaper issue) are normal while it is scanning media or rebuilding gallery's cache or whatever, once it has some time to settle after inserting an sdcard it should work fine. Rendering and wallpaper picker are working OK here.

Also how do you change the hardware keys and when you reboot the app in the far right corner on the dock is taken off a reboot.
Sent from my One using Tapatalk
anybody else having errors flashing this latest weekly?
Loving the app overall, but I can't figure out how to customize the hardware keys either. As of right now, if the app doesn't include a software menu button, there's no way to press menu unless you enable the navigation bar and just deal with the redundant buttons.

Tap and Pay
Has anyone been able to test out Google Wallet's tap and pay on RC2? I've yet to find a ROM that works. If this one works, that'd be great.
Anyone more users with feedback? Love Slim on my phone and would like to introduce my friend who just picked up an M7 as long as there are no major bugs. Normally I would test a rom myself, but can't under the circumstances.
Thanks

I've been using for a about a week, and I like it so far overall...One issue I'm having however, is that every time I leave wifi, I have to toggle airplane mode to get me 3g/4g to kick in. Don't know what's causing that?
Also where are all the Slim features I've come to love with SlimBean!! I miss my horizontal notification toggles, among other things. Hopefully be here with an update soon?

Themes
Hyy @Flinny are you planning on adding the theme chooser engine in the ROM?
the options in this rom are all mixed in with aosp stock settings, makes no sense at all to set it up that way, very hard to navigate and find the custom stuff

That's the exact opposite to most of the feedback we got about it, things are in their logical places.. Display stuff is under display... Navigation stuff under Navigation, I personally see no reason for things to be split off, it makes things less intuitive when you have 2 sets of display settings etc.

So thanks to a lot of help from dhinesh77 managed to build CM for the Galaxy Music. It is almost stable, it is your choice if you use it for daily use or not (bugs below). Since it is almost stable it will be an RC release.
Thanks to:
-Cyanogenmod Team for this awesome rom
-Big thanks to dhinesh77
-pawitp's patches
-xda forum
-If someone is missing please tell me
Patches
Patch to device/common for bluetooth to work: https://gist.github.com/pawitp/5411720.
Patch to hardware/libhardware for microphone to work: https://gist.github.com/pawitp/5449660
Patch to packages/app/Camera for antibanding settings: https://gist.github.com/pawitp/5450415
Patch to frameworks/native as a temporary workaround for hwc issue: https://gist.github.com/pawitp/6884849
Bugs
This are the most important bugs and the one I know so far:
-Bluetooth can only send files when it is recently turned on
-FM Radio
Requirements
You must have the CWM for the galaxy music, or TWRP
Also you must install cm over stock JB 4.1.X, installing from ICS 4.0.X will cause issues
Note: If after installing you have some problems about a pin unlock, try installing from a stock rom of another country
Install instructions
-Make a backup first just in case
-Wipe data/factory reset
-Flash CM 10.1 for galaxy music
-Flash gapps. Link here
NOTE: If you are upgrading from a previous version of CM 10.1 you can just install it without wiping and keep your data

Note
For those with the Galaxy Music Duos (GT-S6012) probably you will need to edit the updater-script in /META-INF/com/google/android/ and make it to match the device's name in your build.prop (it could be "ivoryss", "ivory" or "ivoryssxx". However, most of the cases this change isn't necessary
NOTE: Dual sim function won't work on the duos variant, only on cm 11 releases will work

Bugs
This are the most important bugs and the one I know so far:
-Phone reboots by itself with incoming or outcoming calls (with incoming, the call will last like 3 seconds)
-The camera app closes when you select the video recorder
Requirements
You must have the CWM for the galaxy music, NOT TWRP. Post here

-Wipe data/factory reset
-Wipe Cache
-Wipe Dalvik Cache on advanced
-Flash CM 10.1 for galaxy music

Also if someone can help me fixing the remaining bugs, that would be great. Phone call logcat and camera logcat
Note
For those with the Galaxy Music Duos (GT-S6012) probably you will need to edit the updater-script in /META-INF/com/google/android/ and change "ivoryss" for "ivory". I hope that's enough for making it to work on the duos variant

So thanks to a lot of help from dhinesh77 managed to build CM for the Galaxy Music. It is almost stable, it is your choice if you use it for daily use or not (bugs below). Since it is almost stable it will be an RC release.
Thanks to:
-Cyanogenmod Team for this awesome rom
-Big thanks to dhinesh77
-pawitp's patches
-xda forum
-If someone is missing please tell me
Bugs
This are the most important bugs and the one I know so far:
-Phone reboots by itself with incoming or outcoming calls (with incoming, the call will last like 3 seconds)
-The camera app closes when you select the video recorder
Requirements
You must have the CWM for the galaxy music, NOT TWRP. Post here
Install instructions
-Make a backup first just in case
-Wipe data/factory reset
-Wipe Cache
-Wipe Dalvik Cache on advanced
-Flash CM 10.1 for galaxy music
-Flash gapps. Link here
Download link
https://www.dropbox.com/s/w6m01xh1yo6au79/CM 10.1 ivoryss RC 1.zip
Also if someone can help me fixing the remaining bugs, that would be great. Phone call logcat and camera logcat
Note
For those with the Galaxy Music Duos (GT-S6012) probably you will need to edit the updater-script in /META-INF/com/google/android/ and change "ivoryss" for "ivory". I hope that's enough for making it to work on the duos variant

I looked to a lot of guides of how to build cm and dhinesh77's device tree helped me a lot fixing bugs and coding was not needed for fixing that, it was mostly fixed with patches or missing libs.
Also tried to recover all lib and bin files from stock rom but that didn't fixed the last two bugs so will have to find other way
And I'm going to be out of home next week so please be patient if I take too much time fixing the bugs

sadly not so much, I've been busy lately, just discovered the call problem was not related to proximity sensor at all, it's somehow related to sound, because if I make the sound no to work, the calls won't reboot the phone but of course, having no sound is worse

I'm sorry, I've been absent for a very long time trying to fix that reboot call bug, and guess what? All time was the kernel I couldn't believe it was so easy to fix, so, now will update the first post with the link of the next release and will try to fix videorecording, please report if it works on third party apps
And sorry about those PM that didn't answered, I don't too much time and again will going to have exams
Edit: Dammit, now I think wifi is not working
Edit2: OK, new RC3 build with call and wifi working, download link at first post
What's next? I'm going to try to fix videorecorder and also may try to add new features to the kernel (governors and I/O schedulers)
Also maybe will try to fix mtp

How to Install:
Peform a full nandroid backup.
Note that this firmware will NOT function properly with another kernel.
If you already have the full 28A bootstack and are running TWRP 2.8.5.1 or higher, you may skip the next step.
Flash the 28A bootstack found in the VS980 Resources thread in this forum.
Wipe data/cache within twrp. You should leave internal storage alone. If you fail perform this step and have any issues while running the firmware, start this whole install process again and follow this step before posting.
Flash the latest firmware version below after verifying the md5.
If you plan on using ART (and ONLY if), you should also flash the patch below or you will have constant IMS service restarts. Keep in mind that flashing this disables Verizon Advanced Calling. There is a revert zip if you wish to go back to Dalvik and want Advanced Calling.
Kernel options:
This is a trimmed down kernel built for speed/stability/efficiency. I'm not interested in a bloated kernel with every governor/module/cherry pick du jour and never will be. I prefer using my phone, not obsessing over countless "tweaks".
Turn on CAF touchboost by creating /sdcard/touchboost file and rebooting. If the file is empty, boost freq is 1036800 Hz. If you want a different one, just put the value inside the text file (no spaces). Valid options are (422400, 652800, 729600, 883200, 960000, 1036800, 1190400, 1267200, 1497600, 1574400, 1728000, 1958400, 2265600). If you don't know what touchboost is, search.
Switch to Interactive governor by creating /sdcard/interactive file and rebooting. This will also enable a kernel-based hotplug governor (thanks to @show-p1984) that works better with this governor.
Enable SEAndroid permissive mode by creating /sdcard/permissive file and rebooting.
If you wish to restore data using Titanium Backup or some other app, you are welcome to do so, but if you encounter problems, you must follow these steps again WITHOUT restoring data before posting.

Changelog:
Version 1.2.0:
Fix FC on 2nd power button press during incoming call
Fix XCam LG layout issue
Removed more unneeded background services
Added Torch Toggle app. If you set QuickButton to "None" it will turn on/off with every Vol+ longpress. More options inside the app.
After testing for a few months, included f2fs support for data/cache
Updated a number of core Google/LG system apps/services (including LG Keyboard)
Better data packet aggregation while screen is off (fewer radio up/down events)
Version 1.1.0:
Enable IMS Registration (and SMS/MMS over LTE) while running ART.
Wireless Storage added
Call Reject list added
New system fonts added
Screenshot area preference added
Certain volumes increased (vs 1.0.0)

Version 1.0.0:

Downloads:
NOTE: AFH provides md5 checksums of all downloads on their site. Please verify them before installing.
Firmware/Patches:
XDABBEB's VS982.5 1.2.0
ART patch
Restore/Revert:
Restore Download Mode - only needed if you had flashed an older bootstack zip that enabled fastboot. Keep in mind this is a 26a laf partition and will only work paired with a 26a bootloader
ART patch revert
Add-ons:
20 dip Navbar
24 dip Navbar
30 dip Navbar
36 dip Navbar
42 dip Navbar
My Patch - This is a zip I flash on my phone after the main install. It sets the default system dpi to 424, sets the default runtime to ART (and switches it if you've already booted with dalvik), installs the 30dpi navbar and changes the status and navigation bars (centered clock, LP icons, battery percentage to right if on). Keep in mind that the initial boot will take a while due to the art compiler.
LG Extras - These aren't needed and are only provided as a courtesy without support. I did create a launcher/shortcut apk for the LG Health app, however, so it can be used as a standalone app. If you just want to flash that, remove everything but the 4 LGMyWellness files.

Well, I'm I'll and running. No issues updating. Booted right up. Everything seems to be working so far. Don't have too much time tonight to play. Couple things i have noticed so far:
1) I hear an audible click when exiting either camera app. Haven't noticed it with any other apps.
2) I use Google Voice for my voice mail and turn on the feature to integrate it into the call log. I am unable click on a voice mail too hear it. This is par for the course for the stock Verizon roms, but i was excited when it worked on CloudyG3. Is this a function of Verizon/CDMA?
Awesome work. Looking forward to playing around some more.
EDIT: I found a minor bug with the phone fc'ing when dismissing ringer via gesture and then hitting the power button. Will be fixed in next release.

You need to be using the stock launcher while setting it. Then you can switch to another like nova, etc.
Not sure if this is an issue or not, but once disconnecting from Wifi, 3G will come up .. but it will state no internet connection .. and then it switches over to LTE and I get the same message .. no internet connection. Re-starting data fixes it ... has anyone else experienced this?

I experienced something similar exactly once...after booting with wifi enabled I turned off wifi and though mobile data "appeared" to be connected I didn't have an IP so obviously it was useless. No need to reboot if this happens to you, however. Just toggle airplane mode. This should only occur on initial boot and only under VERY specific conditions (namely, a particularly slow MN handshake). In other words, this won't happen at random after you're booted.
In the future, please provide a log with anything of this nature or there's nothing much I can do. You'd need to capture it pretty quickly as well.
Thread cleaned at OP request
The op has stated that this discussion thread is for development, Questions and troubleshooting should be in the Q&A thread.
Things that belong in here are bug reports WITH LOGCATS, without them you are basically saying "I cant get this to work, please fix it for me" without actually giving any useful info.

Try asking at link I quoted above first. Dev is trying to keep this for development only. If there's others with same issues then try explaining it better so it can be of more help. But many including myself have been fine with the camera so it looks like just a one person issue. Either way ask in q&a

PixN Rom** Theme friendly ** Better Camera ** exFAT ** Optimized kernel ** Substratum ** Clang ** Custom Settings **
This is my daily driver which I update occasionally depending on weather I need/want new features. There won't be any OTA's because of work. Do please also check the Credits section, and the Screenshots tab.
I do not have a single sim device, however I have compiled kernels for the single sim and dual sim variant both.
The kernel thread has now been split to be here since the kernel gets more updates than the rom (for now atleast).
This project has been renamed to show the my first forays into more *real* development.
Please use the Feature Request tab for feature inclusion requests.
It's also very hard to keep track of bugs reported here in the comments so please, again, use the bug reports tab...
I'm very thankful to everyone commenting, it's just hard to keep track sometimes, and seeing as DevDB has all the features required...
Since I also use XDA Labs which has no DevDB support it'd be best to comment AND add the comment in the required DevDB tab..

Please feel free to report more bugs, or even request more features but I'm not a dev so, no guarantees.
Installation Instructions
Eventually these will be flashable zips, however right now they're causing an error (IOError: [Errno 28] No space left on device)
So for now install by fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery_3.0.2.img
I don't recommend wiping userdata via fastboot so if you want you can always factory reset or clear Data, Cache, Dalvik and System from TWRP.
EDIT:- People having trouble flashing the system.img should try with mfastboot (fix found by @katibehi)
Downloads
The DevDB downloads are for the system.img and boot.img files only. They're in 7z cuz otherwise I can't upload them.
Get the latest kernel from the PixN kernel thread here.
Beta Release 1.999
This is in the DevDB download. The changelog is incorporated into the feature list.
The .7z is NOT FLASHABLE.

Beta Release 4
Biggest YET!! Most feature complete rom around.
Beta Release 5
Bigger than ever (feature wise). First and only 7.1.1 build for our devices. Happy New Year!
Sadly this release is not on DevDB.. Since DevDB won't finish attaching files as of 1st Jan and I don't even know if it'll be back. I'm really hoping for a basketbuild account, cuz then I'll be able to serve OTA's. Anyway.
For now due to popular demand this release, Release 5 is uploaded to MEGA.
Beta Release 5.5
Still on MEGA.
The link to the folder is here
Beta Release6, 7
Mega again... Until DevDB is back up assume all future releases to be on MEGA for now.

FAQ/Frequent Statements
Q0: When ${THING}?
A0: No ETAs. Don't ask.
Q1: You list my phone above but there isn't a build uploaded, why not?
A1: Haven't gotten around to it yet.
Q2: But when will you get to building it?
A2: Damn it, see Q0/A0.
Q3: How often will builds be produced?
A3: Whenever I get to them and feel like uploading.
Q4: But ${THING} isn't working for me. I cannot live without ${THING}.
A4: Not surprising, nougat is still young. Some features aren't ported and some may still be buggy. Maybe this isn't ready for you yet. And don't cry.
Q5: Xposed?
A5: Don't know. Maybe, maybe not. I'll ignore you if you complain about something and are using Xposed. Not out for nougat yet.
Q6: Can I complain about something?
A6: I'd prefer not, but be prepared for me to ignore you.
Q7: Can I report a bug?
A7: Absolutely. Please mention the kernel version and any additional files you flashed. Create a logcat.
Q8: When will you fix ${THING} that I just reported?
A8: Damn it, see Q0/A0. And if your ${THING} isn't something that bothered me, it probably just got shuffled to the back of the line.
Q9: Can I donate?
A9: Sure! Whatever you can. This takes a lot of time. Apparently not.
Q10: What is this "sdclang" thing?
A10: CM is using a optimized version of the clang/llvm compiler for official builds of Qualcomm devices. I'm using it for my own builds. See these links here and here.
I've depreciated this to move to Clang 3.9 (newer).

I just tried it on my E6633
Everything works except the camera which didn't want to work, even after some reboots.

Well.... I'd suggest you wait for a while after the reboot.. Then try the internal camera in WhatsApp... That works for me..
Though the camera problem is basically across all aosp builds until Sony or cyanogenmod or someone fixes it...
First of all thanks for your great effort! this rom is amazing.
Well time to report.
First, battery life is quite amazing, over 5 hours of sot. (around 3 in stock rom)
Second, the 64gb sd card won't get recognized... but on the other hands 32 gb one works well.
Regards,
Jerry
P.s. if you would like to solve the camera issue try to dig into @infected_'s repo... His roms had solved the camera problem.

Thanks for the heads up I'll definitely look into it
I'm not sure why the 64 gb cards don't work...
I'm not having issues with my 128gb sd card but it did format it before it would work..
Has it offered to format the sd card?
EDIT: @infected_ also seems to have used the same sonyAOSP repositories for his aosp build...
It's unlikely but maybe a different tool chain might help... I'll check. Also they seem to be all marshmallow builds... That might also be behind their camera working better...
camera isnt working yet on AOSP, on the kitakami/msm8994 family and all others. with some hacks msm8974 was taking pictures, but nothing stable.
regards.
What about the battery life during the night for you ?
It started from 82% at 2:00 AM, and now it's at 65%...

Yikes, that seems really awful. I'd suggest you use naptime for aggressive doze.
You could also try the doze app which stops background data for chosen apps...
With naptime installed you should get much better battery life...
Did you clean flash this?

I'll try Naptime and Doze app secondly.
Thanks for your tricks. I will tell you if it resolved my issue
And yup, I did a clean install
I can't flash system.img, fastboot shows this error
(load_file: could not allocate -1585037392 bytes
error: cannot load 'system.img')
I downloaded system.img two times but same error.

Which system are you coming from?
I think that error probably has to do with the larger size of the system image because of gapps being included..
Are you trying a full wipe?
finly i flashed it every think is good but camera dosent work. for now i come back to stock.camera important for me.thanks for your work
Is it possible to make this compatible with the E6653 device? The rom loads perfectly on my phone, only thing not working is my SIM card because I dont have a DSDS phone.

Yup it is possible and I'll release a working boot.img for the e6653 with the next release (hopefully today itself)
Actually the delay is because I'm compiling with uber but my first build was laggy as hell.

Why you don't flash this(http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z5/development/cyanogenmod-14-1-xperia-z5-e6553-t3493283) on your e6653?

Actually trying that one now, funnily enough it's not detecting my SIM card either. Never had this issue before, might be because I am in Australia.

Haha, you have no idea how excited I am right now. Eagerly awaiting that upload. Soon as it's up, I'll load it up and if all works well I'll use it for a while and give you some feedback.
Unfortunately the CM 14.1 ROM that was posted (which is for the E6653) cant detect my SIM either, lot of other people are having that issue too. Hopefully yours will be that stock experience I'm looking for.

Ok, so I installed Doze, Greenify (without Xposed, hope that it will be compatible with Android Nougat soon ), and NapTime. Without effect, always 2-3% drain per hour.
I realized that my device won't deep sleep, it was always in activity even when I wasn't using it.
I searched for wakelocks, and noticed that Google services were faulty. I disabled some of them after searched online, and it's better
I think without camera, the rom isn't complete. I am waiting for that.

I believe the sim detection in @fergy's rom has been fixed by him.. check the last posts in that thread...
I do honestly believe aosp is doing better than cm-14.1 at the moment, mostly because CMTE hasn't been doing well on the newer CM roms while Substratum is working really well...
I'm uploading a single sim kernel to release 1. Since the Uber builds are being more trouble than help...
Test it and tell me how it goes...

On release 2 (testing) with the Uber toolchain, Open Camera works... however the rom is overall very laggy using uber...
So I'll be looking into other opportunities...
By the way, have you found any non-stock rom (AOSP,CM etc) here or elsewhere with a working msm8994 camera?
If yes please link the repos here, I'll gladly try to incorporate it.
