Hi folks,

1. First of all this thread should inform you that Cataclysm Mods are still working with Google Stock Images MOB30Y for the Nexus 5 as well as MOB30W for the Nexus 6

2. If you like we can as well use this thread to discuss issues, resolve problems and make sure that we can extent the life of this great MOD for as long as possible.

3. As discussed with the moderator team of XDA i ask all participants to respect that we shall NOT DISCUSS the reason and circumstances of closure of the official threads !


Should you ask yourself why this thread has been set up even though all the information is readily available in the official threads, the reason is simple, they were closed on request of the OP, hence we cannot discuss and help each other out and most users would have instinctively unsubscribed and therefore are not aware that the MOD itself is still working as usual and can be further used. There is no single glitch in the MOD itself and as to the google glitches, they will be taken care of by google themselves.

last but not least, @atl4ntis will see that we don't give up so easily and perhaps he will find ways to provide mods through channels ;)

i'm totally sure that he himself is and will be using nothing else than his own work, it's even possible that he will silently upload his later work to his AFH page, ( hope dies last ) LOL

CHANGES TO THE OP

On friendly request and only to avoid possible conflicts, the direct links to the download pages on AFH have been removed. You find those links in the OP of the original, now "read only thread" "by atl4ntis", which are linked above. You can find them where they always have been, just one more click and we are on the safe side, thanks for your understanding


How to install

HERE is a link to a sophisticated guide by @nathanchance as to installation processes while of course only the mod part works with latest google factory image ( system.img )
and be aware that the rooting processes may change over time or did so already.

:good:

It looks like we're gaining momentum :)

I want to bring to you attention that 2 members have specially contributed to making up my mind that it might be worth to make this thread as well as to gather so many participants in such a short time. special thanks fot this go to:

@ben_pyett @suku_patel_22

Of course special thanks go to @all participants who help to increase the chance that we shall have this great rom/mod for a long time to come while i hope you're @all aware that it can end upon each new google release each month which we don't hope to happen of course.

Further it's absolutely self-evident that the mod-concept fully pays off for us now and for this our special thanks go to, who else than @atl4ntis cheers ( Amen ) LOL

For anyone with issues after updating to latest "Google Play Services"

if you want to revert to older version and prevent play services to be updated in the background do the following:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/info-cataclysm-mod-dead-t3307703/post67149956


______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________


For anyone with a 100% wakelock from "Google Account Manager > CMASystemUpdaterService" who does not want to revert play services but wants to get rid of it, do the following:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66971782&postcount=868


These issues are by no means "Cataclysm-Mod" related but exclusively, like so many times in the past, caused through the latest "Play Services" update and will be resolved eventually as usual

Let Cataclysm rest. Don't see any need another thread.
Everything about Cataclysm can be search/read in its original thread that atl4antis has started, should covered 99.99% of the issues..
then stay away, it's not mandatory and your opinion whether a thread is needed or not is not interesting to know.

if something is wrong, the mods will let me know, if someone in charge like atl4ntis doesn't like it, he will tell me, if you don't like it, stay off, easy as that and one thing is certain. to post in a thread that it's superfluous is definitely more superfluous than any kind of thread.

i propose "shortsight" instead of "farsight" or narrowminded even better.
@farsight73 basically the reason to make a thead was that i get numerous PMs every day on the matter, hence it's perhaps not that superfluous as you think

It might be dead for you, but it's certainly not for the remainder of the community.

You are right that most information is in the locked threads.

But as they've been closed, users are unable to chat, question or discuss.

So I believe that this thread has real value, especially to me...A long time cataclysm user of multiple years so while it continues to work with latest stock image... I'll remain on what I consider the most complete stable feature rich stock solution available.

Here is mine.

Great idea for this thread, apologies for some of those PMs... ?

Might be a good idea to switch the order in your OP so that the first link goes back to back to all of the original closed threads and the next link goes to the download, and stick a blank line between them as on a mobile with my bad eyesight they look like a single link, just my opinion.

hi, there is no reason to apologise, it was the explanation why i had the idea so that more people can benefit from the discussion, but by no means a complain, rest assured, don't worry :)

as to your propositions, will immediately get to it, gimme a few :) always good to know how things appear to other people's eyes, thanks :good:

Good work, love the additions of forever hopeful Alt4ntis hooks. ???

Might also be worth trying to link to Nathan's detailed build instructions if they're still relevant.

Considering flagging the existence of this thread to a selection of positive cataclysm users, even though that'll be blatant promotion. Food for thought.

Linked to @nathanchance his tutorial and yep the more people will use the mod the better chance for the above hinted possibility :D

i'm reluctant to do so because of all the bad energy it would cause but i would have liked to see this thread in the appropriate device sections. however that would make it 4 threads and we don't want non-readers but only the good guys don't we, hence let's leave it here in this innocent place LOL

The threads seem to have been deleted.
absolutely not, you might have missed them since they move back in pages due to the fact that default order is by last post date.

you can either cycle trough pages, search or BEST way is to order by number of views which will bring it up on or close to top :)

shot just made and/or use the links in the OP of this thread which is why i put them there beside other reasons.

Thanks for creating the thread, i wish a Google+ community was created by the dev, so that he can share the ROM and updates without worrying about the source and drama.

Hi folks,
1. First of all this thread should inform you that Cataclysm Mods are still working with Google Stock Image MMB29Q and probably will do so for much longer.
I'm still on Jan security patch & Cata Mod (bcz i don't want to settle for anything less than what Cata offered) but as i rememmber when factory Image for jan security patch was released @atl4ntis told to wait for New Cata mod instead of flashing Dec 23rd one because Google changed system files & probably needs to patch framework again or something . ( some users flashed Dec Mod over Jan Factory image also reported that their build No was changed to old Dec one after flashing Mod )

so isn't this applicable to Feb factory image release as well ? or we don't have much changes in files to be patched for Feb over Jan ?

and is it safe to flash Cata Mod Jan 5 over MMB29Q ? or there may be chance of conflicts ?

hi, welcome here, your subject is the reason why we posted several screenshots to:

a) proof that cataclysm mod is indeed installed over mmb29q

b) that we would be aware of any flaws due to that fact

in short, no, it's running flawlessly on this side, while your subject is not very far fetched ( good question in other words ) this was one of my motives to launch this thread:

1 - to catch the attention of faithful and positively tuned cataclysm users who don't let go just like that ( turning their flag after the wind LOL )

2 - to raise the attention of @atl4ntis to seed the thought which was mentioned above several times, to provide the mod which he's certainly using to
.....select users through private channels like, best would be channels that cannot be penetrated by trolls, like a slack group or whathaveyou.

i will not bother him personally, he will be aware and make his decisions without bombarding him with "pleases" and more offending monetary offers.
should he consider the thought we shall know in due time, else we shall use what we have as long as it lasts.

@all

just want to inform everyone that i'm running the next best ROM on one of my devices to keep up to speed and for being able to compare directly. this is to prevent eventual statements by trolls, so that i can counter (or confirm) them from first hand experience.

further, but considering our little group her i'm not worried, there are other roms which are well made and well maintained. we know that at the moment none can beat this one due to what makes it so special which after all was the reason for things to happen how they happened.

what i'm trying to say is that we should not speak condescending or in any other way negatively about those because they as well deserve respect.

as said, i'm sure that this post is somewhat superfluous considering who is here but still thought it a good idea what this thread is NOT about :highfive:
