Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this Android 5 (Lollipop)?
A: Yes, this is Android 5.1.1
Q: What code is Oct-L based on?
A: Starting with Oct-L, we've rebased OctOs on the CyanogenMod 12.1 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 XXXXXXX 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 CM and all the others have..
A: ROM developers, including CM, 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-L.
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:
Download ROM .zip file and MD5 file, and grab your favourite Android 5 based GApps package
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 ---
Factory Reset from TWRP
Flash ROM and GApps .ZIP files
Reboot
The Oct-L 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-L available on our GitHub repositories.
Unless otherwise specified, all Oct-L builds use the device's stock CyanogenMod 12 kernel.

Thank you so much for bringing us here with obake another ROM! It's been awfully quiet since the abolition of the msm8960dt tree. ghost has been getting awfully spoiled.
This is an awesome ROM. Everything works and runs smooth.

Does the active display work in this release and can you install this over CM 12.1 nightly?
Yes active display works and no you have to do a clean install

I cannot get past "checking connection" screen after installation. Any ideas?
The only bug that I can find is when I go into camera settings and then back out it says unfortunately camera has stopped and then it returns to camera. And when you take a picture and slide over to picture, sometimes there's an icon to share it and sometimes its missing.
After the latest update 6/6, no more unfortunately camera has stopped.
Sent from my DROID MAXX using XDA Free mobile app
Im really glad to hear that everything wrks. Ill look into the camera bug. Smetimes mine gets stuck too when it says checking fot connection, i always just back up to the previous screen and let it sit for a little bit, 5 minutes or so, and then try again It always eventually goes,[
I also fixed the upload s there is a new build up or will be very shortly. I added flip to mute to the build also. If there is another feature that you guys want shoot it at me and ill see if its possible.
This is THE ROM I am looking forward to (while I know there are not many options for the Droids of 2013).

My bootloader unlocked Maxx is on 4.4 (19.5.3.obake-maxx_verizon.Verizon.en.US). Since my bootloader is unlocked, do I really have anything to fear when flashing ROMs or am I pretty much guaranteed to be able to always have WP off and root? I'd like to give this one a shot but don't want to cross any bridges I may not be able to come back across if need be.
You will be fine worst case scenario is a boot loop which is easily fixed.

How is the sound and Bluetooth connectivity on this rom,,,that was my major problem with Cm12 roms and I assume this can me installed on the Droid Mini?
Screenshots please....
Flashed TWRP 2.8.4.0, Octos, and 5.1.1 GApps; everything is running like a dream! Only weird things are that my carrier name switches to "31000" sometimes, and Google Fit shows I have 71 steps in all of today... that's very off, but I am in a location where I only get 1 or 2 bars or signal strength with WiFi off and High Accuracy mode on. So all things considered, I can't say it's the ROM's fault for certain.
Next up is trying to get Xposed running. And does anyone know how to get hotspot back and working?

Sound all seems fine, including calls. Bluetooth connected to my Jarv Joggerz headphones and played through a song; didn't do much extensive testing besides that. I would assume it can go onto the Mini as well, though I'm using on a Maxx.

Looks terrific in screenshots but my Maxx's bootloader is locked so I have to wait for the official Lollipop, I guess.
Looks good.
I would just like to have a different color icon for Wireless when Internet connectivity is established.
I understand Motorola Assist will no longer work and none of the other special Motorola applications will work once we switch to CM. This is a bit sad
Will the "twist to launch camera" action work?
I understand Active Display works fine and uses low power just as stock.

Twist camera works great even let's you chose the camera if several installed. Moto doesn't let you do that.

Just upgraded from stock 4.4.4 to OctOS 5.1.1 (still installing gapps as I type this).
Saw this error a couple of times while flashing in TWRP: error sending message to remove storage 65537
Noticed that shutdown takes a bit longer than stock.
The good part is bootloader is still unlocked and I have root intact.
I noticed that there is no way to get network strength on the status bar. How can I get that feature? Overall, network settings is a bit limited. You have only LTE, 3G and 2G if you were to make a choice.
How do I go about with XPOSED?

Q: Is this Android 6 (MarshMallow)?
A: Yes, this is Android 6.0.1
Q: What code is Oct-MM based on?
A: Starting with Oct-MM, we've rebased OctOs on the CyanogenMod 13 code. Modified to give you a smoother more stable rom.
We like to Strive on being closest to AOSP as possible but also being able to support multiple device
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.

For Galaxy S4 Ting Users, You will find a OctOs_Ting_APNs.zip flashable file in the Sprint Galaxy S4 download section.
If you are a Ting user, Flash the ROM and GApps as normal, then flash the OctOs_Ting_APNs.zip file. This will set the correct APNs for the Ting Network (CDMA/eHARPD/LTE).
If you are NOT a Ting Customer, do not flash this.

can we get some screenies?
Update #1:
Uploaded new build to website. The change was to verify that the correct toolchains were being built with.
Updated Screenshots in Project DB.
Also, I noticed that there were 7 downloads of the ROM, but only 3 downloads of the MD5.
The MD5 file contains the SHA1 hash of the .ZIP file, and is used to verify that the file you downloaded is the same we put up. Changes from transmission errors can lead to bad things, and the MD5 file is 80 bytes.
Please folks, use the tools provided. TWRP automatically checks the MD5 file if its in the same directory as the ROM .ZIP file.

In terms of the ROM building, the keys used to sign and the log information are going to be the biggest things.
If you're asking why it says UNOFFICIAL in the name, it's because we aren't going to spend the money on a code signing certificate, and it's not a milestone release.
Biggest tip-off as to if a build is actually from us, however, is where the release lives. Our official public releases live on our website and no where else.
Running good this morning no issues to repoet
Edit: could use some more blackout theme options IMHO

Well, It has the full CM12 theme engine, so you have options for that.
As far as theme's we'll include, it's something we are discussing, but themes are a huge undertaking. I'll deal with ROM code, but I don't have the patience for theme building.
Found a pretty well made one here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chummy.jezebel.blacked.out
---------- Post added at 08:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:45 AM ----------
OK....?.?.?. Am I missing the option to save camera to SD? Is it there? if not that would be a suggestion.
So I was browsing around a bit and checking things out.. I I have not flashed many ROMs so I don't know if this is a team OctOS thing but......
IN live wall papers LOL. BLUE BALLS!!!! LOLOLOL that all I have to say about that
Will OTA updates be built in the ROM in the future i don't see it in settings yet but im about to update to the 2/16 build so i haven't check that build yet I'm on the 2/15
Does this have the LTE issues like the GPE ROM, you know where some people were not getting LTE at all?

hello>>>>
i appreciate your hard work. the rom is too smooth.
still smoth with 5 modules in xposed.
it would be very good anjd great if you fixed the Data/3g sim switching bugs
Nice Work.... Lovely And Smooth ROM
I appeciate your hard works.
I found your rom is very smooth even if i have 9 xposed modules running.
I m currently using your latest build.
i love the way that you keep all customization in Tentacles. its easy to navigate.
it would be better if you added some other features like Gesture Lock Screen, App Side Bar, System Animations with duration, Data Traffic Monitors, screenshots delay etc.
moreover, your ROM is the best ROM i have ever used.

i flashed xposed framework and installed 8 modules. all are working properly. the use of xuimod makes the rom a little bit slow and laggy. but when i apply custom patch from lucky patcher (e.g. Greenify), the result comes like this "patch already done or pattern error and failed". and after closing this when i open an app it automatically closes without any popup message. and i have to reboot my device. what's the problem?????

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:
Download ROM .zip file, MD5 file & Open gapps (arm64) linked above
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 ---
Factory Reset from TWRP
Flash ROM and GApps .ZIP files
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.

Thanks, we as a team take a very professional approach. ?
Been running this for a week now. Stable build! No issues to report.

Thanks to the maintainer.
Super stable build! Battery life amazing on just standard kernel. Any customs you would recommend to enhance this mod and make it even better!?

I remember OctOS back when I was using the s3! Ran great no problems then, looking forward to trying this out when I have the time to clean install a new rom! Appreciate the build im sure it will be stable and quick~
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?

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.
@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!
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!

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.

Any screenshots???
I'm pretty sure the era of screenshots is over. Most all ROMs look stock now, and let you theme them how you want. Prior to these theme engines, a lot of developers used to theme ROMs. Now it's being left to us. The real meat and potatoes lies in the code, which screenies won't show. I always scroll through looking for screenshots too, out of habit lol.

We're looking into adding resizable nav bar in future builds! ?
I would love to see double tap to sleep on lockscreen, its the only thing missing in this rom. Everything else runs super smooth, i really like it!
Daily driver material. Got great battery life results in the first run, can't imagine how it's going to be after the battery settles...
No bugs found, at least for the kind of usage I give it.
No bugs found for me, and greater battery life. Works fine. Thanks
Waiting for more updates
Great rom! Really like the balance of stock and additional features. It absolutely flies and battery life in the time I used it has been excellent.
Great rom. I haven't tested the battery life, but it seems good. Work perfectly as well.
The only thing which is bad, like CM13 and CyanPop, (also based on CM13 sources) the sound is distorted on some games ( like Critical Ops, the game is free on PlayStore if you want to see the problem ). It need a fix.
Temple Run 2, Crossy road got also distorted sound..... Boring
I think I'll back to stock because I use this phone for playing 1rst.
Great ROM!!!
I have to ask though.. is the stock Moto X features found on 5.0~ (Active Display) not compatible on 6.0+?

Thanks
Great to see this room here! Going to test this later tomorrow when I am home again.
Oh man, another one.
Been using OctOS on my G3 forever (also a tester). So of course I gotta try it.
So many ROMs, so little time. ?
EDIT: I don't see a download for this device at the site. Under what device name is it? There's no ailsa_ii or axon there.

Cool great to hear
Looks like the build is out, anybody happen to install and run it?
Edit: I must say, first impression its pretty good. No custom kernel installed, the battery drain is better than other ROMs I've tried, customization isn't too bad, everything's smooth and the sound is great with Dolby Atmos. Excellent job devs.

Definitely agree no hiccups at all

Not in there
Trying this rom out now...boots pretty fast.
I see this is based on LOS so I'm sure I know the answer already, but for clarity and for others who have not done the required reading: Is there still the issue with randomly having to enable and disable speakerphone during a call to get the earpiece to work?

all custom roms have this bug But a user says to me he solved this bug with light patch, 2. Preview. Solved the call issue and improved overall sound quality by tons
Hm, I didn't even see that. I'll check it out at some point and see if that fixes it, unless someone else gets to it first, Of course I'm still stock rooted and haven't switched to LOS-based anything yet, which means I haven't confirmed the bug for myself lol.
