[ROM] Fully working AOSP 6.0 for grouper

[dmitrygr]

finished this one 4am this morning, and fell asleep before I could post, so here you go:


Writeup, details, etc all here:
http://dmitry.gr/index.php?r=06. Thoughts&proj=04. Android M on Grouper

What works: selinux, camera, NFC, GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth
No dirty patches in /platform, no dirty hacks
Lots of cool hacks though. Read up


This is for WiFi devices only (for now)
use latest public bootloader
and i suggest a data wipe - i do not support any conflicts with existing data - selinux policies changed in ways that might affect /data, so having things in /data can affect things like GPS adversely

Awesome! Do we need to update radio/bootloader first?

Is the 'Doze' functionality of Marshmallow working?

 

[dmitrygr]

It is for me

 

[ashish__s]

what Gapps did you end up using? I've flashed multiple packages and it all leads to Setup Wizard problems

 

[tcat007]

Yeah, rom flash works, but stuck with no playstore. Also tried flashing supersu and got a bootloop. Also tried to install an apk from Explorer and wouldn't install. I know this is real really so I'm sure things will get added. But what's here feels much faster and smooth! 6 on a 7, wow!

Edit: I downloaded these "mini" and they seem to be installing OK. http://androiding.how/android-6-0-marshmallow-gapps/
Got me to set up screen!

After fighting a bit, the ROM started and I'm restoring my apps from playstore, when I chose the restore point in the wizard, this failed, then select "New device" to continue, anyway restoration began. After finishing the wizard i modified play services permissions to stop FCs.

These were my steps:

1 Wipe Data/System/Cache/Dalvik
2 Flash ROM
3 Flash BETA-SuperSU-v2.52
4 Flash benzo-gapps-M-20151011-signed-chroma-r3
5 Wipe Data/Cache/Dalvik
6 Reboot

Seriously, this is quick and brilliant work. Congrats to all of you who put in the hours and stress. This.....is why I only use Nexus devices. Your efforts are truly appreciated. Best of luck as you continue to further this project.

Congrats to all of you who put in the hours and stress..

Glad to help

I am not one of them people who make ROMs all the time. I just wanted to do all the actually hard work of the port and offer specific directions to them, so they can support M on this crop of nexus devices

 

[tcat007]

I'm not getting su 2.52 to boot. Everything w/o root is great!

See Nexus 4/10 forums where people already figured it out

My Nexus 7 has been revived... 5.1.1 was unbearably slow. I'm very impressed. Great work!

M on N7

Happy to see that people still supports and share their work for the N7 - big thanks :good:
Now it's exciting to see if the N7 will be able to handle Android M for more than a day or two before slowing down :fingers-crossed:

I'll try this out

How does this differ from [WIP][ROM][6.0] Nexus 7 Marshmallow - Android 6.0?

When do you think it is possible to have a version for the Nexus 7 3G (tilapia)?
Thanks a lot for your contribution.
