Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this Android 6 (Marshmallow)?
A: Yes, this is Android 6.0.x

Q: What code is Oct-M based on?
A: Starting with Oct-M, we've rebased OctOs on the CyanogenMod 13 code.

Q: What happened to AOSP?
A: All Android code is based on the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). Under previous releases, we tried very hard to limit the number of "Not from Google directly" repositories that we used. Unfortunately, issues with devices, the need for Code Aurora Foundation (CAF) repositories for Qualcomm devices, and compatibility issues meant fighting code more often than not. We decided that since the code-base for many repositories were the same across most ROMs, picking a starting point to build the user experience on outweighed the desire to craft code from scratch, or fix broken code to make it work with other changes we already had.

Q: Why isn't there XYZ feature.
A: Shoot us a Suggestion if you want to see something added. While we are not going to promise to implement, we will always look into it

Q: But XYZ and all the others have...
A: ROM developers build something they want to use. The ROM developer that includes something they won't run implies less than 100% effort to ensure it does work. As a team, we have similar goals and objectives. If XYZ ROM has a feature you want, and we don't include (or don't want to include), feel free to use XYZ ROM, or build your own custom version of Oct-M.

Q: Superuser or SuperSU?
A: Team OctOs uses SuperSU and is installed automatically.

Bugs:
Bugs happen. Our testers are very good at breaking things, but no where near as good as the rest of the Android public. In order to investigate and fix issues, we need the help of the users who are going to report them. The Android OS has many nifty features to help us in this, but only if we can engage the user to assist us.

Logs, Logcat, and the Android Debugging Bridge (ADB)
Like any other OS, Android has multiple log files that are generated and record the goings-on of the system. As a user, you have two basic ways to view and pull these to send to us. Without the information in the logfiles, there simply is not a whole lot of information to go on.

Log file APKs
Team OctOs recommends SysLog from the Android Market. This application will allow you to selectively pick any (or all) of the system logs, compress them into a .ZIP file, and allow you to save, email, move to your Copy/DropBox/Cloud Storage account, etc.

ADB Logcat
The Android Debugging Bridge (ADB) is a powerful tool available from Google as part of the Android Software Development Kit (SDK). Used for many things, being able to selectively see, in real-time, what your device is doing cannot be downplayed. While there is more setup involved, if you are doing consistent ROM flashing, you really should invest the time to get setup properly to do it.

ADB Logcat tutorial here: How to create a logcat log


Basic Instructions:
  1. Download ROM .zip file, MD5 file & Open gapps (arm64) linked above
  2. Reboot to Recovery (Note: Use Reboot to Recovery from Power Menu, Hardware-based boot to recovery, or adb reboot recovery - ROM Manager or similar software is NOT supported)
    --- TWRP is the ONLY recovery Team OctOs uses - We do not support flashing on CWM ---
  3. Factory Reset from TWRP
  4. Flash ROM and GApps .ZIP files
  5. Reboot

The Oct-M ROM installation script will automatically wipe /system, /cache, and /data/dalvik-cache. There is no need to do these before or after flashing the ROM unless you are instructed to by your GApps Provider

The foundation of the Android OS is the fact that is it open-source. We have all code we use internally in the creation of Oct-M available on our GitHub repositories.

Unless otherwise specified, all Oct-M builds use the device's stock CyanogenMod 13 kernel.

I think I did something wrong. Downloaded the 2/27 weekly build, dirty flashed on existing system, which was a clean install of 2/20.

Got missing Google services errors. Flashed nano gapps again, and everything crashed.

Wiped, installed 2/27 clean, all good.

Was this caused by the partition size change I saw in the changelog?

So what the Hell Right. why not have some fun and found Team-OctOs For SGH-T999. And wOw Marshmallow on Galaxy S3 !! So fast and clean. My wife took it back after she saw and said why did you do this Before? haha
So All I have to say if it was to good on that Samsung galaxy S3 , Then I Have to flash this ROM on my LGG4 H811 right now.

Thanks Team OctOS :good: :cool:

Yep I was using Oct back when I had my s3 and it really brought new life back into the device after carrier support was dropped. Love how light and functional the rom is while still having great features.

Most stable AOSP rom I've tested so far and the battery life OMG, it's amazing. The thing that I miss the most is the double tap anywhere at the lockscreen to sleep.
After testing this rom for a bit it's not bad, pretty quick and fast but my battery hasn't been that great. It's been two days now the battery should have settled but I'm getting less than 3hr SOT while I usually get 4. The lack of DT2S is slightly annoying after getting used to the stock rom but it's also not present in the CM builds i've tried but got the feature back through gravity box. Hope that helps!

@tiskewlio, @Qverse, Glad to see you guys here! Hope you'll enjoy Oct-M on this device as much as you guys did back then on the S3 I'm actually still using my S3's d2att & d2vzw. Both are running in beast mode on Oct-M Welcome back to OctOs fellas!
It's great to be back! Might stay with this rom for a few weeks or till I get bored. Nothing against it just like to flash different roms to test and support the devs by providing feedback and whatnot. This one is really snappy, missing a few features and customizations but it's probably for the sake of stability and lightweightness so it's fine. Hopefully the battery settles down because i'm getting an hour or more less than I usually get.
