[ROM][5.1.1][SaberMod-5.2] Benzo Rom

[kava1]

Playback control is not working when the screen is off. Anyone else having this issue?

I addressed this a couple of pages back, but I checked again with a reboot. And yup, I noticed that my lockscreen security settings (and pattern) had once again been reset. The pattern still displays, but anything will unlock it. I have to manually go back and set the pattern on every reboot for it to work correctly.

Hopefully we can find a solution for the next build.

I'm making a fix for it now(hopefully).

As noted above, open the app, choose Main BlackOut Apps...

Then Chrome, with the April 4, 2015 date

Download, regular tap to install

Never Installed an apk before. Thanks for all the assistance. Learning more and more every day. Will never own anything other than a Nexus device again. ???

Found a bug. Is anyone else experiencing this? With a pattern set for my lock screen, after a reboot drawing any pattern will unlock it. PIN and Password work as they should, but I always use the pattern for convenience.

So heads up anyone with a pattern securing your lock screen: if you are on the latest build, your lock screen is not secure.

Simply wiping cache and dalvik fixed it for me.

Change pattern to PIN do a reboot and test again with pattern please and update; needless to say do try dalvik and cache clean

I've tried all of that. On reboot, any pattern will unlock. PIN lock works fine.

I went from swipe to pattern unlock and don't have any issues. Won't unlock unless pattern is correct.

PSA - anyone using a pattern - if you select any of the larger than 3x3 dot options and also select the option to require password to start device, you will be flashing stock image soon, as I am currently. There's no increased dot count on the android pattern boot check nor the TWRP pattern check, only 3x3 so you'll be unable to access anything. I'd highly recommend removing either the increased dot count or the pattern requirement to boot the device as to avoid going through the trouble of flashing stock.

No need for Xposed personally.
Now that I'm on aosp and no tw ui.
What are you looking to do with xposed?
I always hated having to use xposed when I had my Note3.
So nice not needing it now.

Sure there is, there's tons of neat stuff on there

New build is up.​

Changes:
- Updated and built new toolchains.
- Kernel now built with SaberMod GCC 6.0
- Added some stuff to the kernel like intilliactive. (still working on lower clock speeds)
- Added fixes for the new pattern lock screen. (I tried it out and it seems to work for me)
- Some other little stuff.

Use the updater if it works for you or grab it from my server, Basketbuild or my other mirror.

Thank you for amazing ROM. i recently switched from your 5.1 build to 5.1.1 (04/22 nightly) and can't seem to find where can i enable recovery reboot, previously after i press restart, it would give me "soft reboot, recovery, etc."

Thanks in advance to you or anyone else who can point me into the right direction of the settings which i had enabled in the past.

It's in the same place it's always been...

The speed dial is a known issue, was not mentioned as fixed in the changelog, and has been reported on every page since the new 5.1.1 of this rom was released.

As to Chrome, delete the version you have and install the Team BlackOut version. It works.

I'm using 4x4 but not a password.

Guys,

First, I think the readdition of the Benzo Kernel Tweaker was a great move. It has pretty much all functionality of Synapse and much nicer UI.

But my point is regarding the best kernel to use. I believe it is the Vindicator kernel that came with the 4-14 build of Benzo. Its version "2.1", but its before Vindi 2.1 became official and was rebased (basically they started from scratch and lost functionality and battery life)

I think the new kernel being worked for Benzo by xanaxdroid in the newest build performs excellently and look forward to using it full time in the near future, but it is still missing some features as it matures.

I'm attaching the boot.IMG of the kernel I feel is the best released to date, from the 4-14 build, if anyone else would like to use it until the new Benzo kernel matures. The new Benzo Perf app works great with it.

Hope that helps someone out. Also, I'd highly highly recommended checking out the thread in the nexus 6 general section which shows which services are safe to disable for Google Play Services. I went from Google Play Services having 80+ alarms an hour to 4 an hour.

Agreed, 4-14 battery life was absolutely the best. With little or no use, battery would go down like 10% a day.

Is speed dial fixed in latest version? I use that more then anything on my phone.

wakelocks

Can someone go through what wakelocks I can/can't block? I left my phone on last night (about 8 hours) and it only slept for 44 minutes of it. TIA.

Editv never mind. I'll stay on older version. Just read bug is still there.

 

[Bataga]

I hope the speed dialer never gets fixed lol
The colors (pink, green, purple, etc) screw up my themes

Google Play services has stopped errors CONSTANTLY on the new update after upgrading with the delta. Several times a minute.

I noticed it seems like Google Now Launcher was not included in this version? I actually prefer that to other launchers. I wonder if thats related at all. Trying to restore my backup of Google Now Launcher, but this latest update isn't going so well for me.

EDIT: Stopped a bunch of google play services. SEEMED to have stopped the issue. Dunno why so much trouble for me with this release but I'm trying to get it all sorted out. Need my launcher back haha.


Nope. Installed launcher from market place. Still getting "google play services has crashed" bs. Everything was running 100% fine before the latest delta update :/

To get Google Now launcher you need to flash a stock gapps package after flashing the rom. I use pa gapps stock and haven't had any issues. Try downloading instead of flashing within the rom. I wiped dalvik, cache, and system then flashed the rom and pa gapps stock.
