No SIM card detected
Hi guys,
First, thank you very much for all these up-to-date builds.
I've install Ubuntu Touch, the last Nightly, the last 2.2 and the last 2.1 (available on your site) with MultiROM on my Nexus 5. Unfortunately, all FirefoxOS installations have the same problem : my SIM card is not detected. Neither Ubuntu Phone nor Android 5 have this issue. Does anyone already seen that ? Any clue on how to fix that problem ? I'm also French with "Free" French network, in case that could help.
Thanking you in advance,
Regards,
Colin Chargy

I use Multirom with Cyanogen, Ubuntu and Firefox and my provider is Free, like you, and I do not have this issue...
Did you try to update your radio and bootloader ?
Thank you! I'm starting to try
Hello,
I'm a new happy owner of a Nexus 5 with the latest Android Lollipop, because I wanted to be able to try Firefox OS (and Ubuntu Touch also, maybe later).
I want to thank Vosky and Tasssadar for their work because without this post and
http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/orig-development/mod-multirom-v24-t2571011
I would not have decided to give it a try.
Now, let's hope everything will work smoothly and I won't come back to help to much for help.
Thank you again and hope to not read you to soon
Thatoo
Hello everybody,
I'm coming back to you so soon.
However, it's for a great news. I have FFOS et Ubuntu both install on my Nexus 5! It went so smooth that I'm really impressed and I don't see any problem for anyone to install it even non developper.
I want to thank you because I'm really happy.
I'm going to describe what I did yesterday night to install it to confort other geek newebe to try.
Be free,

HOW TO INSTALL FFOS on your NEXUS 5 with MultiROM (Tuto for Beginner)
Hello dear excited non developer free fellow,
If like me, you want to try Mozilla FFOS on a phone and are tempted by trying a multiboot system on a Nexus 5, here is how I did, in just one evening.
First, I discovered this page, from Tasssadar
http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/orig-development/mod-multirom-v24-t2571011
and then, this one, well the one you are coming from actually, from Vosky,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/development/nightly-firefox-os-t2960953
I read the first page of Tassadar thread, and I didn't understand anything! It's normal if you do to, there are many words you need to get familiar with. Read it (not more than the first page for now), don't worry, we will come back to it later.
Then, you have to read all Vosky's Thread from page 1 to 9 (maybe after will be good too but at the date I'm writing, they are not written yet . A lot of your questions will be answered. Don't assume that my explanations will be enough, you need to have a bigger picture of the process, you need to read all these pages.
First, it gets clearer how you'll download FFOS. You have to download from http://ffos.vosky.fr/ from the Recovery column. Today, saturday 2015/05/09 you have three choices, two quiet stables versions called "Pre-releases", V2.1 is the one to choose if you don't have Android Lollipop, and V2.2 if you have Android Lollipop, then, if you want to try the last features and help to detect bug, you can go for the last "Nightly builds" which are the latest work done by Mozilla's team on FFOS 3.0.
Good, now you need to go back reading Tasssadar's Thread. If their are still word that you don't understand, check what they mean. I didn't read much of this one because I decided to go for the easiest way. I followed the "Installation Via MultiROM Manager app". On the page of the app,
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tassadar.multirommgr
there is a great video. You need to watch it before going further.
If you are as newebe than me in this case, after installing the app, you'll have a red warning saying something like "MultiROM Manager app couldn't get root access". No worries, you just need to unlock and root your Nexus 5.
For That, I follow Chainfire's Thread here,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/orig-development/nexus-5-cf-auto-root-t2507211
and this very precise video,
http://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-root-and-unlock-the-google-nexus-5-xda-developer-tv/
I know it works for Android Lollipop V5.0 and V5.1 but earlier version, sorry, I don't know. Watch the video a first time entirely and then, watch it and pause after each step to catch up what they are doing. It's easy and very well explained. You'll need to download CF-Auto-Root here https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ . Look for the download link at the line Nexus 5.
Now, you can go back to the previous video, the one about MultiROM Manager app that you find here, remember,
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tassadar.multirommgr
As you watch entirely before, you can follow it step by step, pausing sometime to catch up what they are saying. Read again "Installation Via MultiROM Manager app" paragraph on Tasssadar's Thread if a warning Kernel: doesn't have kexec-hardboot patch! in red letters appears. I install the default one called Stock 5.1 if I remember well (I have Android 5.1 installed on my Nexus 5).
Read again the beginning of my post to choose the FFOS version you need to download.
What is not said in the video is that when the download is finished, and he is going to Install, he is in an environment we are not so familiar, because they didn't explain earlier what it is. It's the recovery mode. You reach it after shutting down your phone and start your phone with pushing the down volume button. You'll find the little robot you've met earlier to Install CF-Auto-Root, you choose Recovery mode with up or down volume and select it with power button, then you will recognize what he is saying in the video... clicking on "Advance" and stuff.
The end is so easy, as far as you know where you put your zip file of FFOS in your Nexus 5.
Enjoy!
And if you want to install Ubuntu Touch, I don't need to give you any explanation, it's so easy. You just go back in your Android, in MultiROM Manager app and after choosing the Ubuntu you want, you click on Install.
I guess, my only request would be to ask our great devs Vosky and Tasssadar to work together in order to offer us a so well integration of FFOS than Ubuntu Touch inside the MultiROM Manager app. It would be perfect!
Don't forget to Thank Vosky, Tasssadar and Chainfire by clicking on the "Thanks" button (a thumb) at the bottom of their first post on their Thread, the button will become yellow. They are doing a great job! Tell them!
Now, if you have a problem to install FFOS or Ubuntu Touch on your Nexus 5, don't come after me, I can't help more than that. However, I'm sure if you ask a polite question on this Thread that has not been yet answered thousands time, you'll get a quick answer!
Enjoy freedom.
[Now, I have to figure out how to import my contact into Mozilla FFOS V3.0 from my Mozilla Thunderbird 31.6 without being friend of Google, and that my dear seems way much more complicated. A simple usb cable and a sync or even import button are out of dream today... how weird!]
HOW TO UPDATE your FFOS ROM !
It's not more complicated than installing. Download here, http://ffos.vosky.fr/ , the FFOS version you want, in the recovery column. Copy it in your phone.
You return in the recovery mode. You reach it after shutting down your phone and start your phone with pushing the down volume button. You'll find the little robot you've met earlier again, you choose Recovery mode with up or down volume and select it with power button, then you have to follow this path : click on Advanced - MultiROM - List ROMs - select your previous FFOS ROM and click on Flash ZIP - select the zip of the FFOS ROM you've just downloaded - SWAP- click on Reboot.
You've just updated your FFOS ROM!
screenshot and phone answering?
Hello,
I installed FFOS3.0, the same nightly build, on two nexus 5, one for me, one for my mum.
Two questions : once, my mum took a screenshot of an app, but she can't remember how, and I didn't manage so far to take any with my nexus.
How do you take a screenshot with FFOS 3.0 on your nexus 5?
[Then, don't ask me how is that possible but the way we both answer a phone call is different. I just have to click on on of the two buttons, a red on the left and a green a green on the right to decline or answer the call. She has to slide a button to left (red) or right (green) to do the same. How to choose if you want two buttons and click or one button to slide?]
I found the solution : if I switch on the developer mode, I have the two buttons but if I'm not in developper mode, I have the switching button.
Thank you,
A bigger firefox when the phone start?
Hello,
It's not a big deal but, at the starting of the phone, could the nice animated firefox be a bit bigger?
I like my firefox but I can't see him enough.
"Based on Mozilla Technology" is at a good size, but the animated firefox is way too small. If it could take all the screen, it woud be great! Don't you think?
Best regards dear mozilian,

Yes it works with MR. Read the main thread for more feedbacks.
Finally I'm using this Rom!
Basically it's cool but you know it has a long way to get much more stable & usable.
First of all I agree with that guy who suggested big Firefox animated on the boot screen.
Then I know this a new & fresh project but it needs more debugging.
For example at the first when I was trying to connect to ma WiFi after I touched the join button it takes more than 5mins to join ma network!
After that I downloaded some apps from store like Telegram, when I was trying to filled the blanks with ma phone number touchscreen didn't works & I already can't login with ma number cuz jumping from one blank to another blanks for registration has bug & I can't fill them!
In settings we've lots of problems,I can't manually change ma screen brightness from that swipe bar of it so I've to tick the auto brightness!
& also have a same problem in any swipe bars in menu like volume & alarms up & down when i touch them nothing changes!
Sometimes ma phone crash (stopped working) on menu & some apps like browser & I've to wait for response to continue ma job!
______________
There is more you know but I didn't remember all !
I really like this OS & in future hope so use this OS as ma major Rom on ma N5!
PLEASE WORK ON IT!!
and sorry fo ma bad English ?

bootloop problem after flash the kernel
Thanks for sharing this amazing Rom
I have a problem, after I flashed ElementalX-N5 1.08.zip the device go into bootloop,
I solve it by re-flash the Rom file, but what is the problem, why my device didn't accept the ElementalX Kernel ?!
and what is the default kernel of this Flyme Rom, is It better than ElementalX Kernel in the Battery Saving ?!
I need to install kernel ElementalX to support The HDR google Camera Feature, bacause the Flyme Rom has a bad camera !
any Support please ?
Curiosity
This is the only android based rom that works on my hardware bricked Nexus 5 (moisture maybe); Sailfish, B2G and Ubuntu Touch works too, but the stock rom and other android based roms screen locks as soon configuration starts (usually touching in "next" after selecting language). I sense that porting the FLymeOS's app settings/configuration could reach any other rom run or something... Any ideas?
Thanks in advance, and sorry for my poor english

Flyme OS not working on my Nexus 5
I flashed the 3.8.2R Flyme OS zip but when it boots, on the language selection screen, it gives me the error "The process com.android.system" has stopped working every time i press NEXT after selecting a language. Restarting didn't help, Clearing Cache/Dalvik didn't help either.
I tried this on the Stock kernel in case that helps someone in helping me!

When update to flyme4
Problems with immersive mode on fullscreen games
Hi. I flashed Flyme OS a couple of days ago, and I have to say I am loving every single moment of this. Love the interface, love the speed and even the battery life is pretty impressive compared some other ROMS!
Although, I have been experiencing an extremely annoying bug with fullscreen games. I play COC on my phone on a daily basis and when I open the game, the onscreen buttons (Back, Home and Recent) buttons don't disappear like they are supposed to on android 4.4. They stay fixed and visible.
Now, I normally wouldn't mind this, if the full game interface is visible. The problem is that the onscreen buttons are fixed on top of the game, which means that part of the screen is hidden behind the buttons. It is really difficult. I tried a couple of stuff I found on google to fix it.
The only thing I found closest to a fix is to disable the whole onscreen buttons thingy by setting the value of "mu.hw.mainkeys" to "1" in "build.prop" file. Then I installed the "PIE CONTROL" app by "coolace" from the Playstore. It have been working really well for now. But, since it includes installing an external app, which takes up more memory to run I was hoping you guys could look into this and suggest a way to fix this. I like to keep my device clean without installing too much extra applications!
Other than this little problem, I find this as a very top notch ROM. Good work to the developers. Keep it coming
Hope to hear from you guys, and I look forward to newer versions of this ROM, especially one ported with the latest Lollipop release!
Thank You.

I had this problem at the beginning too. But, I downloaded the latest PA Gapps pack and installed it. Worked like a charm after that!
Here is the download link:
http://d-h.st/qOq
This is the PICO package, which means that it will only install the most basic gapps like playstore and play services that you absolutely need to run the system properly! You will have to download the other apps like Gmail and Hangouts from paystore.

Yes. I installed after lollipop update. Got that error in the first try too!
When flashing the lollipop update, you flashed the hhz12d bootloader. All you have to do is flash the hhz11k bootloader using fastboot. Worked for me after that.
Here is the link where I downloaded hhz11k bootloader:

update
So how do i update this rom im on 4.4.4l version 6.1 moto g and are u guys going to make one for android l just wondering love this rom best one ive had for this device
about validus
in case the maintainer finds this post, testing the latest milestone (6.2) on falcon (moto g, european version), found a few bugs :
- the setting to disable wifi in profiles and power saving mode for the battery (in the void options) is just ignored. When disabling wifi manually, it comes back everytime I exit the lock screen (maybe it's because of another setting but I couldn't find it).
- in sound option, music effects shows viper audio. When clicking on it, it proposes to install its driver automatically. Except that it doesn't work, since there is no log it's hard to know why. I tried the 3 proposed driver, to reinstall busybox (from the playstore), nothing worked.
- And the touch screen suddenly stopped working in 1 situation, I don't know why. I received a mail, when I tried toclick the screen it didn't work, and I couldn't use the touch screen anymore even after puting the phone to sleep and wake it up again, so I had to do a hard reset (power button pressed for a few seconds).
I'll try to keep on using it, but if the touche screen bug comes back I guess I'll have to do something... maybe try another kernel then, it seems related to the kernel...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57054547&postcount=112
This 6.2 MS is built with what version of DK kernel? 1, 1.1 or 2?
Everything else works fine atm.
request
I just want to say that i have been using this rom as my daily driver since 2 days. no major bugs..
just wanted to request that the theme of the settings app should be changed back to the material white again. thank you
I'm using validus 5.0.2, build date says Jan 1. I noticed in a post you said you added the option to change nav bar dimensions, but I don't see it anywhere. Also "performance" under settings is empty.
I guess the questions asked here are of so little importance they don't deserve to be answered...
Can't post screenshot.
Groups still themed white text on white BG.
Rom, gapps, kernel so anything else I forgot to install apart from these?

Cause I tried to flash latest build (v7.0) and it stucks on the boot logo... waited for 20 minutes...

This topic is only for LiquidSmooth questions
About your question: Install BMM and do partition stuffs then you will be able to install 4 more custom ROMs on your phone :fingers-crossed:
But first, read this great tutorial (including videos)

System 6 Error when loading Nano/mini Gapps on LS v32 Atrix2
I got brave today, after much reading on the forums and watching Tech ArnY rooting videos and BMM 0.3.4 - Great information.
Here are the steps that I took today and their results:
1.) Rooted the Atrix 2 MB865 (AT&T) that has OTA ICS 4.0.4 ROM. Rooting was successful,
2.) Post install of MBB 0.3.4 and SuperUser, I kept the ICS 4.0.4 ROM on System 1 of the phone.
3.) Next, following Tech Arn Y's teaching, I was able to successfully flash LiquidSmooth (AcePort-LS-KK-Milestone-3.2-edison.zip) onto System 3 post wipe clean /dalvik, et cetera and successful install.
4.) So far, so good. Next I attempted to load GAPPS from this link (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942). Again, post check of MD5 check sum for both mini and nano GAPPS - no issues.
5.) While attempting to flash either the mini or nano GAPPS onto the Atrix 2 into System 3, it shows the following (E: Error in /ext/pa_gapps-modular-nano-4.4.4-20141121-signed.zip) (Status 6) Installation aborted.
6.) I can boot into either ROM without issues, however, even after a reflash of System 3 and again successful install of LS-KK-Miestone 3.2, GAPPS gives Status 6 install error.
Looking for clues in these forums, but I have not come across anything yet. Any/all help would be very much appreciated!
@Starrider17 I'm betting your gapps are too large for your partition size. Find the PA gapps thread and download the pico gapps then try again. If it fails again the PA gapps will generate a log and place it on your SD card to tell you why it failed.

Thanks 1BadWolf for the reply. At first, I thought that the size of the GAPPS was perhaps the issue, but it did not end up to be the case. After continuing my search in XDA Forums (a wealth of great information here without doubt!), I stumbled upon a video that explained Status 6 and Status 7 errors which are the most common when flashing GAPPS post ROM into any phone. In my case, here is the summary of the events:
1.) Flashed pa-gapps mini 4.4.4 (at 229 mbytes ) - Status 6 error.
2.) Wipe clean System 3 and then flashed pa-gapps-nano 4.4.4 (at 120 mbytes) 2x - Status 6 error.
3.) Being somewhat frustrated, and yet challenged, I took the clue for the status 6 error and by chance, I grabbed the Slim_mini-gapps 4.4.4 (at 65 mybtes) - Gapps successfully loaded!
4.) Wanting to confirm whether the issue lives in the size of the GAPPS - or - something in one of the scripts (Meta-INF > com > google > android > update-binary or update-script), I went ahead and did another Wipe-Clean and flashed Slim-normal-gapps 4.4.4 (at 183 mbytes) - Gapps successfully loaded
Summary: In business and in life, something a solution or a work-around is found and implemented without knowing the root cause!
Hopefully, the documenting of my journey here will be beneficial to someone down the road just as many of the posting in this forum have been (and continue to be) to me too!

Hey guys, thanks for trying out my Liquidsmooth port and offering your feedback. Unfortunately, I'm no longer able to work on the existing ports or even lollipop since development has completely died down.
This is because our current recovery, BMM isn't able to boot any lollipop rom and it's the only working one we have. All developers and supporters have moved on pretty much, so all you can do is just play around with what's there. I'm still kinda around with my A2, but don't have the time to do anything anymore since I've moved onto a newer device, work, life, etc.
If you want someone to blame for this, firstly blame Motorola for the locked bootloader and then blame Google for making 5.0 have enforced SELinux which is why we can't boot any LP rom. Aside from that, this device is amazing to have and I hope you all have a wonderful time with it.

Dude, please don't type your entire post in caps. That's unnecessary. This is a thread for the development of CM12; not for questions like that and most certainly not for a different ROM. Go create a post in the Q&A forum about your issues. In lower case.

Thanks @adobrakic, but I'm still new on forum things. Have looked for Q&A, although don't actually know how. Could you please explain me it?
2 questions from a newbie
Hello
I'd like to install lollipop on my HTC One S but got 2 questions:
- Once I install this http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-s/development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-lollipop-htc-one-s-t2946468/page76?nocache=1 how does it work for the next updates? Is there some kind of automated updates that I can do from the phone's options? (just would like to avoid having to reset the content of my phone for every update)
- How come the date of the ROM on this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-s/development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-lollipop-htc-one-s-t2946468/page76?nocache=1 mentions 18 Dec whereas there seems to be a version dated 21 Dec here: https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=ville
Is it 2 separate things?
Many thanks for your help

On first installation of every new ROM (and so for this CM12), you have to make a factory reset. You'll have to re-install or restore all apps after ROM install. An app restore from a CM11 Titanium Backup worked fine for me.
After that, on every new version of this ROM, just install the ROM zip file and wipe dalvik and cache. No app restore needed. For the moment, there is no automatic update as in CM11 via updater.
When official CM12 nightlies start, it should work without a factory reset too, as the official and unofficial ROMs have the same sources.
Greetings
Matthias
P.S. CM12 takes several minutes for first boot after each wipe of dalvik and cache. Be patient.

This ROM really great!
But I want to ask you small problems!
1. "How to change the background of message?" - I don't like orange!
2. "How to change the ringtone without default ringtone?" - I tried, but ringtone always turn into Argon!
Thanks!

Good!
how could i back to normal stock camera plz help
i found a bug in black list
when i try to block unkown numbers in blacklist. the settings app crashes
I'm testing 28/12,I've installed it as an update of the cm 11 unofficial. it works very well, i haven't had any bug,only the camera doesn't focus.
Which kernel can i test on this rom?
Flashed 28/12 for hboot 2.16 tonight, no random reboots so far.
Had more reboots on 18/12 en 21/12 than on 03/12 so let's hope this stays this way on 28/12
Most of my reboots happened when using a camera app, standard camera and snapchat for example.
sound is still bugged, first couple of notifications were normal, just got one in now and it was distorted noise again
still missing the multiple volume adjustment option though

1. over here the background colour is different in every thread with other contacts. You could always download and use another messaging app, such as Textra (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.textra)
2. i've also had this problem but it was gone after rebooting. Do you change your notification tone in settings or in a specific app such as the messaging app?

quicktoggle works
I don't know what made it work but here is what I did
Installed lollipop5.1 gapps(the one for custom roms) from zedomax's highonandroid.com
Boot up and installed some apps
Reboot ,got a notification from WhatsApp
Hold down it and dragged it down
Reconnect to WiFi due to bug
Exited the toggle by swiping the whole thing 3/4 way up,then close the small tab
Quicksettings then worked normally for me:silly:
Brightness changer won't work so just use screen filter from play store
Can't wait for next build

Q & A section for the P6200
Hi!
Can you put a Q&A section on the P6200 5.1? I use your ROM as my daily driver (from your CM12), and I want to share my experiences on the ROM. Can't post on the Discussion Thread as I'm 8 posts short (this is my 2nd post)
Thank you!
OmniROM
Any new updates for this ROM? Apparently using CM 12.1 gave me headaches because of multitasking issues (opening facebook, messenger and spotify is like entering the gates of hell because the tablet will be really slow) so my daily driver is this ROM for my P6200
Cant post on the original thread because of newbie reasons.
- simcard not working because of baseband missing
- brightness solved using screen brightness app (disabling auto)
- Quick settings solved by installing GApps
- Same issues mentioned in the original thread.
I hope that you're heavily working on this ROM because this is the most stable ROM that i've installed on my P6200 as of this moment (and really fast too, even WITHOUT THE ZRAM)
I'm technishaun btw
Wait for nxt update
Wish it fix all problem

Thanks @daniel_hk for continuing to keep this device alive
I've installed the 4th August build of OmniROM 5.1 on my P6800 and it's working fairly well, seems much smoother than the 4.4.4 Carbon ROM I was running before.
Things that I've noticed not working:
GPS (after digging through some other threads about this I notice that gpsd isn't running, and if I try and launch it from a terminal I get an error about 'only position independent executables (PIE) are supported')
Bluetooth won't enable
Can turn torch on in the quick access area, but it won't turn off again
I just can´t flash it
I´m getting this message ... Need some help
