7.1.1.

I have a problem installing this.
Update: I think the problem is I encrypted phone before installing this using 9x9 grid. I will decrypt phone and try again.

yes. This is working download link for TWRP 3.0
---------- Post added at 01:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:14 PM ----------
To get working Wi-Fi set country Wi-Fi region code to Europe or Germany that did the trick.
So far so good. Nice OS you have here. All good still runnning.
I'm noticing this OS is faster compared to cyanogen
Android 7.1.1 has issues with:
- Gboard keyboard disappearing when typing.
Solution: Install keyboard app like swiftkey.
- File transfers USB: files to Windows or Mac (MTP) does not work.
Solution: use transfer photo (PTP) and copy files to DCIM folder, later move files with an explorer app on the phone.
- No support for Xposed framework as of yet. Read latest post by Rovo89

Try that, that's what I was able to set the phone to the computer, everything works fine. And Yes the firmware is still a test, but she's really smart, the problem with the camera can't decide

Thank you, I will try that for usb connection to computer.
This is a nice rom overall. @duffi : Did you find 56 issues? i see you added this to my text "Android 7.1.1 has issues with:56 "
If anyone needs advice or a step-by-step guide to install on elephone M2, feel free to ask!

Hi NLSteve,
can I get a step by step guide for install 7.1.1 on M2? I use 5.1 latest rom and I have root on the prhone.

How To Install CrDrooid Android 7.1 on Elephone M2
Make sure you save your contacts and essential info to SD card or computer.
If for any reason your phone is encrypted, change the unlock code to pin 4 numbers! if you use pattern larger than 3x3 or more complex pin you're screwed XD
For this guide, you will need:
Sp-flash-tool-v5-1648 (latest version)
TWRP M2 3.0 (megthebest)
CrDrooid Android 7.1
SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3 (latest version)
Copy the ROM and supersu to External SD Card.
TWRP flashing with SP Flash Tool
1. Shut down your phone and Disconnect usb cable from pc.
3. Run SP Flash Tool and navigate to 3rd tab Download, load download agent MTK_AllInOne_DA.bin and load MT6753_Android_scatter-TWRP3.txt for your phone.
4. Only have recovery checked and keep the option Download Only.
5. Click Download button and connect your phone (which is off) with PC via USB cable. Process should start. After process (60 seconds or more) is finished you will see green circle on screen again. Unplug USB from phone.
6. Turn on by pressing Power and Volume +, hold for 10-20 seconds until boot into TWRP recovery mode.
Installing ROM
1. Go to Wipe. Go to Advanced Wipe. From here, tick the boxes next to Dalvik Cache, System, Data and Cache, then swipe the slider at the bottom to perform a full wipe.
2. Go back to Install and browse to the location where you saved the file and select the crDroidAndroid-7.1.1-20170223.zip file
3. When done tap Reboot to boot into Android.
4. After system done, shut down to recovery and install supersu.zip by browsing to the location of Supersu.zip and choose install.
This is it for now. Good luck!

Hi NLSteve, it works, Antutu 39965 Points. But camera is not working, Fingerprint is not working and Bluetooth is also not working, its flaky. Phone M2 works faster then stock ROM 5.1. What I do missing is the function for updates next time. Great work. Hall Sensor is also not working. Thx.

Hi @volobobo, sorry to hear to hear you miss many functions. For me the camera and bluetooth is working though. :S
Hall effect sensor is used to detect flip covers? I just use close proximity sensor on camera to turn off screen.

Hi NLSteve, camera is really working? Bluetooth is also really working? I have paired with my bluetooth headphones. If so I will keep it a new try. Hall sensor was a misstake on M2, we have one proximity sensor.

Is SIM card working? My ports for other Phone works except sim card recognition.. Bad thing.. therefore I ask.. good to read that you make roms for the M2, which is not a current phone.

Ehy what about making an updated version?

What suprise - M2 isnt dead
Hi all,
since eragon give up because his broken phone, nothing is going forward with our M2,
always stuck on the old Android 5.
Now, we could make a jump to 7.1.
Only a test version by now, but nice to see, there are more options with this hardware.
Unfortunally, my camera changed from an resolution from 13 MP to 5,3 MP. The focus doesnt function (sharpness) in short distance under 50 centimeter.
I tried several camera apps in the last view days. But no one solved that problem.
I looked in the build.prop, but have really no idea, what i can do do rechange to 13 MP.
So, the camera is like dead, i cant get any acceptable pictures by now. :crying:
Have anybody an solution for this problem?
Thanks to all, spending so much time and energy, to keep this phone alive. :good:

Please anyone re-upload link.

- Adobe Flash (as a browser plugin) does not work
This is not officially supported on Jelly Bean, nor will it be on any future versions of Android
You may sideload the ICS version from here http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html​ - Google Talk Video chat crashes
- Adjusting Light Sensor Levels crashes settings...
Settings > Display > Automatic Backlight > Light Levels (select Use Custom) > Edit Other Levels​ - Calculator force closes when you start it - Use a real calculator
- Setting - Launcher - Homescreen, when "Show dock divider" is unchecked and then hit the virtual Home button- "Unfortunately, Trebuchet has stopped."
This is a Trebuchet bug, hopefully an updated base will have it fixed.​​

You'll want to grab the latest for 4.1.1 since this is Jellybean
^^ good thing you reminded this. I'd have flashed the ICS apps instead.
Great

Most apps compatible. Cant really tell which ones arent cos all the ones I use are.
Smooth rotation.
Absolutely fantastic. Glad I returned my nexus 7 (and didnt try another replacement.

I think I included the right files for 3g to be functional, but I have a wifi only model.
I can definitely work with you to get it debugged, if you can give it a shot.
Before you flash, if you can collect both logcat and dmesg, on the ICS release from Lenovo, it will help debug much faster.
Its then just a matter of comparing what is not happening in the logcat/dmesg of this rom.
Thanks

http://www.androidfileshare.com/ is the one Cybie was offering. It won't let you upload files >100mb until you create a login but it seems to work alright.
Is it possible that there is prmissions issue on the external SD card? I notced that I could not browse the external sd, or internal for that matter when connecting to my PC. n fact, other than the device eing detercted, I cannot browse anything on it and it does not show in My Computer.

[ROM] [6.x] [p880] CM-13 Unofficial stock blobs (beta)

While waiting for Euphoria marshmallow I did a test build for CM-13, so here it is.
If anyone want to take over this, I can help setting everything up.
Installation instructions:
Installing CM 13 for the first time, or coming from another ROM:
- Make sure you're running a proper working ClockworkMod-Recovery/Team Win Recovery Project for ext4 and with selinux support.
- Copy GApps and ROM ZIP to your SDCard
- Boot into Recovery
- Make a backup of your current rom just in case
- Wipe system, data, cache and dalvik-cache
- Flash CM zip from SDCard
- Flash GApps zip from SDCard (Don't reboot before installing this if you plan to use GApps)
- Reboot
- Don't restore system data using Titanium Backup!
- I don't recommend changing kernel.
Upgrading from an earlier version:
- Copy the ROM ZIP to your SDCard
- Boot into Recovery
- Wipe cache and dalvik-cache
- Flash the ROM zip from SDCard
- Reboot
Download:
ROM HERE
Recommended GAPPs HERE Don't use google stock package
Source:
Cyanogenmod: here
device_lge_p880: here
kernel: here
repo patches: here
Notes:
-Selinux is in permissive mode for now.You can change it to enforce by typing setenforce 1 in terminal.
-Wifi display(Screen cast) is disabled and it will not work with the old blobs that we have.
-I'm not trying to take ower for laufersteppenwolf. I use stock blobs and I'm just trying to help.
-I created this because someone shared the build in the Euphoria thread.
bugs:
-reboot to recovery
-after reboot "System process not responding" is displayed
-error "invalid number" after remote call disconnect
- Keyboard bug with open_GApps: After install of GApps, install attached cm-13.0-UNOFFICIAL-OpenGapps-keyboard_hotfix_5-16.zip to fix the FC of AOSP keyboard.
- video problems in default browser. Try a differnt browser.
- video preview in gallery have a green overlay, video playback is ok.
- some minor bugs in setting->performance
- (Perfomance is not great on this old phone)
-??
Please add signature faking patch!
Sometimes when I press the power button it opens up the camera app. Other than that it is stable and much faster than the stock ROM.
Great job. Keep it up!
--EDIT--
Also when the phone is charging the touch buttons are lighting up.
is it worth updating from euphoria? what changes
Thanks for creating a new thread :good:

"Sometimes when I press the power button it opens up the camera app." It is feature on android 6.0, press power button twice and camera app open directly.
Overall this ROM is excellent.
Thanks for your support Alfa samsung.
Do you have a changelog for the new version @alfsamsung ?
What a great surprise. Again thanks for your dedication in developing this device.
I intsalled yesterday, installed with google keyboard via recovery, sometimes laggy but almost ready for daily driver. And I can say that M is better than L.
Thanks so much!!! Its nice to see there is still hope for my old and trusty phone
Works fine. Just a few reboots in 10 hours. Still can't get 100% deep sleep. Stopped a few services and it system update. Sleeps only 80%. Because of Android system .

And for now I will not return to 5.1.1. After a few new vers. I believe that M will work better than other android vers. on our P880.
 @alfsamsung, our last developer, I hope you will continiue developing.

[ROM][TMOBILE][S7_SM-G930T][Oreo 8.0 Rooted][WifiCalling]

Updated version of this ROM: [ROM][TMOBILE][S7_SM-G930T][Oreo 8.0 Rooted][WifiCalling]G930TUVU4CRI2
ROM last updated: 10/30/2018
Introduction:
HUGE thanks to the guys that got this going like root & figuring out hybrid stocks! This ROM is a complete rewrite of my ROM [ROM][TMOBILE][S7_SM-G930T][Oreo Rooted] That ROM doesnt have WifiCalling & I couldn't get it to work for the life of me, so I rewrote it. I started with stock, and slowly stepped back making changes, reinstalling each time, confirming it still worked. About 200 installs later & 1000s of changes, this is the result. Yes, it took a LONG time. Hope you enjoy it! Don't forget to say Thanks so I know it is actually helpful to others, and continue doing this!
Description:
Stock Tmobile Oreo 8.0 modified (G930TUVU4CRF1)
EXTREMELY debloated! Nearly bare minimum, while still retaining hardware functionality. Eg, Samsung Gallery & Camera exist so we get 4k recording, and there aren't errors when we pull up the Gallery to edit, etc. Yes, this means NO Samsung or Android Pay. There could be more apps to debloat but Im out of time for now! (Please provide suggestions if interested)
Everything possible I replace Samsung with Google
Solid ROM. It was actually kind of slow for me, but I'm curious how this works for others.
Xposed is part of the guide, which will give you infinite customization & tweak-ability
If you hate Samsung SW and just want a solid working ROM with very few install options to get you up and running this is for you.
This will delete all of your data on the phone! (Not external SD card) This is the only way so don't ask. Backup your data!
Features:
Tmobile Wifi Calling works, along with Visual Voicemail & Mobile Hotspot
Many Aroma Installer app options
(Optional) KevinsFavorites option in Aroma. I'm not sure I'd recommend it due to my tastes. If you're looking for some good common apps tho, it includes: Amazon, AmazonMusic, AquaMail, Gmail, GoogleDrive, GoogleKeep, GooglePhoto, Hangouts, IFTTT, Pandora, RootBrowserClassic, TitaniumBackup, Uber, & Wink (If you install these and want to remove them later, use TitaniumBackup (or similiar) to uninstall
Root Features: See Downloads->Recommended Root Zip & say Thanks!

I have so many FW packages on my PC at this point, from so many places that I used while trying to get this to work, but I think it might be a package from one of your threads(?) Since I'm not exactly sure what you're asking regarding "Ufirm FW", I'll elaborate hoping that answers your question. (Tho I'm thinking you mean the U variation/unlocked. So based on these stock files below I guess the answer is no.) If you're question is really, "is it possible to get tmobile wifi calling to work on a U model #", then I'd have to really think about that. But at this point I don't have an answer. I can tell you a million dependencies about it tho! (I seriously have hundreds of revisions I made while testing, & notes. The symbolic & meta links in Aroma initially broke it, as I found out after a week or so of testing - wish I knew a bit more about them, and why they're all there, then I'd know what was wrong about them...)
High-level process:
1)Flash Base/Stock/Oreo Rom:
- AP_G930TUVU4CRF1.tar
- BL_G930TUVU4CRF1.tar
- CP_G930TUVU4CRF1.tar
- CSC_TMB_G930TTMB4CRF1.tar
- HEROQLTE_USA_VZW.pit
2)Root with your method
3)Flash Xposed framework & my ROM (it's a "start with stock then remove what we don't want" type of Aroma/Edify script)

BTW, any idea how to prevent the "verification failed" error I mention in the OP steps, after flashing Xposed framework? I tried flashing dm-noverity but no luck. At least my guide covers it at this point tho... Thanks again

If you choose the keep safestrap option during root the it will flash the system/vendor/etc/ fstab.qcom that totally removes data encryption but when that fstab.qcom is flashed it also requires a data wipe for phone to boot then when you install xposed you won’t see that error but either way you end up wiping data so your choice

First, I want to thank you so much kevin71246. I tried your previous version as I was sick and tired of how sluggish my phone felt after the last two T-Mobile OTA updates. So far the experience on the phone has been great but I wanted to post about an issue I had with that version to see if anyone else has come across it or can figure out what is going on. The reason I am making this a reply in this thread instead of your other is because I will be flashing this update shortly but I want to get the ball rolling on the issue first.
I went through the whole process, installing the minimum with Google Apps, though I did restore everything previously installed once I log in with my Goggle Account. I am unsure if this contributed to the problem but I will not be restoring apps on the next try. It seems no matter what process I attempt to connect my Ticwatch E to my S7 the Wear OS app will not recognize it which causes the watch to get stuck in the setup phase, making it useless. This was after multiple and different connection attempts, resets, reboots and factory (watch only) restores. The watch will show up under bluetooth and create the initial connection but it will not stay connected. Anyone have any idea? Is this ROM missing something?
Edit: Mid way through the install, I wanted to note that I checked for the issue after doing the "Install Stock Oreo" but before Root and everything worked as it should. Wear OS sees the watch instantly and Bluetooth connects fine.
Edit: So I am a day into using the ROM and I am still having issues. While it will connect and work perfectly fine now, when ever I do a reboot of the phone the watch no longer connects. I will just get constant Bluetooth Connection Requests, every single time the watch tries to get data, and it never actually connects. To fix this I need to do a complete reset of the watch and do the whole setup process again. As you can imagine this is no good, expecting to wipe my watch every time my phone reboots makes it still almost useless.

I believe I know what the issue is, I'm testing a fix (for THIS ROM) as we speak. Stay tuned. Maybe tomorrow if I have time and it works I'll update the OP. BTW, this ROM and my other ROM are TOTALLY different. Thanks for the feedback!

Yeah i.a give this a shot in a little. Do I need to root phone or can I just flash through Odin. Sorry not used to this locked bootloader crap..... s8crj1 are the last 6 digits of the software I'm on. I did receive the latest update will this effect me installing this.

since bootloader is locked you can't use TWRP so you have to use Flashfire to install this ROM, as you know flashfire required root so you have to setup the base per OP and then root the base then install the ROM and then root it again, read the first page I don't think you will get a instructions more detailed then his
Okay so I just realised I was posting comments on the old thread, my bad. Coming back to the question, can the boot animation be changed? I've messed with the qmg files in an attempt to replace the weird, nauseating rainbow animation but even after overwriting the latter, it persists. Looking forward to a reply kek

Nauseating rainbow? LOL. Sorry. This is much more of a general question though, that wouldn't exactly pertain to this ROM specifically. And given I don't have an answer, I'd try searching BootAnimation How-Tos to get this customized. The ONLY thing I did regarding this was replaced the existing files with the rainbow ones. That's it. Apologies in advance.
Just discovered an issue: RCS (Rich Communication Services / Chat) texts don't show up in Android Messages app. See "Known Issues" in OP for a solution. BTW I posted a new ROM version a few days back that allows many choices in Aroma Installer. Make sure to pick Samsung Messages (instead of Google), so you get RCS chat text messages!

[ROM][Pie] Unofficial LineageOS 16.0

This is an unofficial build of LineageOS 16.0 for the Motorola razr I, (XT890/SMI).
Lots of thanks to Hazou. This rom is based on his los-14 rom and I got help from him with los-16.
This rom has full hardware support and should run stable. It has been tested by me in daily use. I'm using the rom without google apps, but with microg. Installing google apps requires some apps to move to data partition because of limited system size. See install description for more info.
Special Features
-All features of Hazous 14.1 rom
-MicroG signature spoofing patch is included.
-Adaptive icons can be disabled in homescreen settings.
I can include more features if requested
Known Bugs
-The camera preview image sometimes shakes at random
Download
https://mega.nz/#F!5fBWlIAQ!Jlq9Bj789iJ0iIIptK00tg
Update
If you already run an earlier version of this rom, just boot to twrp and install the latest flashable zip file
Install
1. Backup everything you don't want to loose.
2. Download and install TWRP 3.2.3 (download in attachments. Can be flashed with fastboot or with another recovery)
3. If you come from another rom do a full wipe with twrp
4. Download and install the rom flashable zip (download from mega.nz link is in section download)
5. If you want to install opengapps or need system partition space for other things. Install the move_to_data.zip file from the attachments. This will move the Webview and the LatinIME app to data partition.
6. Choose one of the following options:
-either install google apps (download form https://opengapps.org/. Choose x86 9.0 nano or pico)
-or install MicroG (can be installed with the unofficial installer https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/microg-unofficial-installer-t3432360) this is lighter in ram and cpu usage but you will get problems with google chrome and other apps
7. If you want root access install the addonsu-16.0-x86.zip (download in the attachments)
8. Reboot the phone. First reboot will take some time

DATA Encryption
If you want to enable data encryption this would break the pds partition backup. To prevent this, the cache partition can be used as backup location:
-edit /system/bin/pdsbackup.sh
-change PDS_FILE=/data/misc/pds/pdsdata.img to PDS_FILE=/cache/misc/pds/pdsdata.img
-resize data partition in TWRP:
Code:
umount /data
umount /sdcard
e2fsck -f /dev/block/mmcblk0p17
resize2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p17 1367079
-reboot the phone

This if I did not expect it, I'll try to see how it goes. Thank you.
Download links and install description are up now. Download from mega.nz because xda download section is broken at the moment. I'm waiting for your test reports
It's really great works, thank you!!
I quickly tried and found several points.
- USB connection with PC
All USB connection option including File Transfer, USB tethering, PTP are grayed out.
Disabling/Enabling android debug in setting didn't work.
- Wifi with storage encryption
When you enable storage encryption, WiFi always become disabled, not be able to enable.
Just FYI, it required deleting /system/bin/pdsbackup.sh AND reducing partition size of 'data' (/dev/block/mmcblk0p17).
- SElinux
Although it is designated as permissive in device.mk, it's actually worked as "disabled".
I'm not sure it's related or not, however, when building "user build", it's failed with "ERROR: permissive domains not allowed in user builds".
I know "user build" is not officially supported in Lineage release, however, it's really helpful if we can do it for AFW usage.
Previously I could use Lineage 14.1 smi build for AFW and safetynet app with user build.
BTW, performance is really great, seems to be almost same as Lineage 11.

I also noticed that. Will see how this can be fixed. It is just a problem with the option dialog. Usb connection works fine. As a workaround you can set a default USB configuration in developer options

I think lineage trust doesn't differentiate between permissive and disabled. Selinux support is planned for future releases
Thank you for quick check.
Regarding USB connection, I also confirmed that Ubuntu can recognize as external storage with above option, besides Windows still does not recognize. Maybe depending on my environment.
Also I noticed that Chrome, Chrome Beta and Chrome Canary (therefore another Chrome based apps such as Maps Go) always crash. This is also maybe my environment only, though. BTW, I could install MicroG, besides couldn't install OpenGapps 9.0 pico due to partition size limit.
Additionally, I couldn't find any LED settings, currently LED is always off during charge or any notification.

Notification Led should work. Can be configured under settings->apps and notifications->notifications->notification light. I don't know what happened with the battery light. It will hopefully come back if I upgrade the driver to hidl.
Google Chrome is a known problem with MicroG. It requires official gapps. I will check if some of the unprivileged lineage apps can be moved to data partition to make place for google apps
Newbie question
Hi all, I know someone who's selling her old RAZR i XT890 and I'm interested (for experimental reasons but also the oddity that it's Intel powered). I've never owned a RAZR i so I've got some questions:
-The phone is from 2012 so quite old and has 1GB RAM, does it work well with this Lineage 16? Because usually newer software would perform bad on older SoC (I used to have iOS 7 on iPhone 4 back in the day and it was painfully slow compared to 6).
-On Lineage 16, can it run any Android app as a standard new Android Pie phone? I ask because this is an Intel x86 CPU, so can it still run Android apps as normal or are most of them only designed for ARM and therefore unusable?
If I get the good news, I may buy the phone and try this Lineage OS custom ROM.
Regarding LED, maybe it became working after modifying some option of notification light. Battery connection light is still always off.
Regarding opengapps, I moved webview and LatinIME from app directory to external SD in TWRP, then installed as normal app after system boot. Webview worked fine besides LatinIME always crash. I'm using different IME, so it's no problem. With this environment, opengapps nano can be installed, then Chrome, Maps and other google apps worked.

That's good. Than we can make a flashable zip to automatically move and symlink them to data partition.
I will provide a new build till end of the week with improved usb and notification LED implementation. I already got it working in my local setup

Newer android versions have been designed while keeping low ram devices in mind. Ram hungry special features like the picture in picture mode are excluded from builds for older device. So the situation is much better then on iOS. But a newer phone would run better thought.
Most android apps are available for x86. But some are still arm only and get automatically emulated. The intel houdini emulator integrates these apps natively into the system but they are a bit slower then x86 apps. These are for example Skype and a few unity based games

Thanks for the response. So I should be alright with it then, hopefully. I just hope it won't lag on that old SoC. I'd love if you could upload a quick video of it in action.

I've installed the OS without problems, but when i try to get GApps Pico or any other version TWRP prompt error 70. How should i proceed? There is any additional configuration needed?

Yes, system partition size is limited on this phone. To install GApps some files need to be moved to data partition.
I created a flashable zip to automate this process. Take a look at the modified install description in the first post
New build is up now.

Thanks for the response. So I should be alright with it then, hopefully. I just hope it won't lag on that old SoC. I'd love if you could upload a quick video of it in action.

Sorry don't have enough time to make a video in the near future. Maybe someone else can record a video of it
I could confirm that notification LED and USB storage works fine with lineage-16.0-20190713-UNOFFICIAL-smi. Thanks.
Still WiFi with storage encryption does not work.

Alright, thanks. I bought my friend's RAZR i and I am planning to use it as a daily driver with this ROM (I'm a light user anyway), I can't thank you enough for making this LineageOS for such an old device. I wonder if such a recent Lineage has been developed for the 2011 Atrix, haven't seen one.
I have questions though, firstly I've never used a custom ROM before, can I simply follow the instructions on this thread to get it working, or is there anything that has to be done beforehand like rooting? Secondly, are any other OSs successfully booting on this x86 phone, as I can't find it on XDA? (it surprisingly hasn't gotten much attention as a hackable device like HTC HD2 or Nokia N900 got).

I know, haven't looked at the storage encryption for now. It will maybe be in the next update next month

If the phone never had a custom rom yet, you have to unlock the bootloader first. Description is in this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1928551

Yes, it should still work the same. If some links are outdated you can google them yourself
Thank you for bringing my old RAZR i back to life! I really appreciate the time and effort you spent for this obselete phone. Looking forward for more updates and for a bug free ROM. Using it now

- Wifi with storage encryption
When you enable storage encryption, WiFi always become disabled, not be able to enable.
Just FYI, it required deleting /system/bin/pdsbackup.sh AND reducing partition size of 'data' (/dev/block/mmcblk0p17).

I'm not sure if I misunderstood but when you said "it required deleting....." and "reducing partition size of data", did you mean you can get WiFi to work if you do those things? I'm no expert at these but I can atleast apply the "fix" (if it really is) given that you guide me, if it's okay with you. Thanks!

[ROM][UNOFFICIAL][10][Q]LineageOS 17.1 for z5c (suzuran)

Hi all:
Here is a LineageOS 17.1 ROM for Z5 compact (suzuran).
Download 2022-09-11
This is a 7z archive with the zip'ed rom and the md5 file in it. Please unpack this archive, copy the included two files somewhere to your device, reboot into TWRP and flash this zip file. Enable md5sum checking. The zip file itself is not signed, so you have to disable zip verification.
Kernel sources
Tree sources
Features:
OS Version: 10.0 (Q)
Kernel: Linux 3.10
Kernel 3.10.108
New: Android security patch level: 5 September 2022
Using sony blob's from stock version 32.4.A.1.54
Memory issues finally fixed!
Battery consumption significantly reduced! For further reduction, please follow these instructions.
Google Pay does not give an error when starting the app. This does not mean, that payment is working. I can't test it, because I don't use this feature at all. Please report if it's working or not.
Updated aptX encoder blobs.
P2P-Crashes fixed.
Important informations:
You should be familiar with general installation of custom ROMs.
Required for installation: TWRP 3.2.1 (pick the version from 2018-02-23!!!) There is a version 3.2.3 out there, but with that version I had problems to restore my backups. 3.2.1 is just working perfect for me!
OR use my self built TWRP-version 3.6.2!
This ROM needs a clean install, old /data may cause problems!
This ROM is NOT pre-rooted.
It is highly recommended that your device is running (or HAS RUN in the past!) the latest stock ROM from Sony (32.4.A.1.54) before flashing this ROM.
Otherwise the baseband files may not match.
Working:
Bluetooth
Camera; both built-in camera (Snap) and 3-rd party camera apps.
Snap may be a little bit laggy, please use 3-rd party camera app instead; for example OpenCamera. If you're running into errors, please report.
Enforced SELinux support (see attached screenshot)
Fingerprint
FM-Radio
GApps (pick this version: ARM64, 10.0, pico [tested])
German app AusweisApp2 working (see this post)
GPS
Headset
LiveDisplay (see attached screenshots)
Location services
Notification LED
Offline charging
Phone calls (see attached screenshot)
SafetyNet test passed successfully
Signed build
SMS
Torch
WiFi
These things are NOT (or badly) working:
Camera focus at low distances.
Encryption
Payment
Streaming (mirroring)
VoLTE
Maybe some more things are not working.
If you have problems with GApps:
Sometimes the SetupWizard of GApps crashes on and on. Then you have to boot into TWRP, mount system, and go into terminal, where you have to delete SetupWizard (see screenshots):
Code:
cd /system/system/priv-app
rm -rf SetupWizard
Reboot.
Use this rom at your own risk! It comes without any warranty! I'm not responsible for any damage! If you don't agree with that, don't try to flash this rom in any way.
Benefits:
Added F-Droid and UnifiedNLP! If you don't want this, simply de-install it.
I've set maximum speaker volume to a higher value.
I've increased microphone gain.
I've changed the microfone gain to avoid echo in phone calls.
Changelog
Troubleshooting:
If you're running into an error, please search in this thread if this error is already posted, before you post it again!
If not, I need a LOG to see what went wrong. Without a LOG I can't help you!
A LOG can be fetched by connecting the device with an USB cable to your PC and then by typing these commands line by line:
Code:
adb root
adb shell logcat -b all -d > logcat
Send my this LOG file via PM.
If you think this could be a SELinux related issue, please try to set the device to permissive mode first.
If the issue is gone, I need the policy file too (plus LOG). Fetch it by typing this line in a terminal:
Code:
adb pull /sys/fs/selinux/policy
If you stuck in a bootloop you can fetch a LOG with this trick:
Press the power button and the volume up button together until the device shuts down.
HOLD the power button.
Release the volume up button and press the volume down button immediately after releasing the volmue up button.
The device should start into TWRP recovery.
Tap on "Advanced", then on "Terminal" and enter these commands line by line:
Code:
cd sys/fs/pstore
cp * /sdcard
Send me the copied file(s), if any, via PM.
Hi Bernie,
First things first : Thank you so much for your amazing work on this device.:highfive:
So hard to find a good, compact and up to date smartphone.
So i tried your Los17.1 and i just noticed another issue : ram usage.
Without nor the gapps neither other apps installed, the system is using 1.6go ram (even the keyboard can take time to appear once you launch an app)
On your Los14.1 (i tried with the last one you created, a few days ago) : it would be something like 0.8go ram (so everything run smoother) still without gapps and other apps / settings.
Maybe, now our days, 3go ram is mandatory for android + gapps + 3rd party ...

I know about that. I've tried with gapps and I can confirm that ram is running out of free space. Sometimes the system is not responding any more (screen is flickering and it seems that nothing happens) and I have to restart it (press power button quite a long time until power menu appears).
It is indeed far away from being a daily driver... :angel:
Another issue: It seems that location services (gps) are not working.
Does anybody confirm that?
Although Bernard warmed us that this ROM is not precisely ready yet, I tried to give it a go, Twice, already. At each time, some variations: with and without gapps (Pico and Nano), via the recommended TWRP and the 3.3.1 one. The result is always the same: after the language selection, my phone reboots on the 'Just a sec', endlessly. I have to restore a nandroid backup, on order to have a working phone again.

I can confirm that unfortunately GPS isn't working.
By the way, i saw many other good roms on many devices ... that had an alpha rom far worse than this one

i didn't have this behavior on my tests, but i usually let the system start and wait for few minutes before using it (especially on 1st boot).
Also, i always reboot once after the 1st boot.
Hope it will help

You have to enable google's location service in location settings. With that, maps is working with correct location; but I don't know if the location comes from gps, wlan or network. It's raining since many days and I don't want to stand outside in the rain and wait for gps connection... :angel:
I've tried to install f-droid and their location services; no better results...

Yes, I know. The problems are always the closed-source binaries from qualcom and sony that are not properly working on LineageOS versions > 14.1
We're working on it but I'm not able to say if we can fix these issues.
BTW: Is anyone able to make an outgoing call successfully?

Weird! At my device this popup comes in the moment when trying to make an outgoing call. And this call is not started! The other end does not ring!
Could you please tell us, which preferred network type is set in *#*#info#*#* "Phone info" and in "Mobile network settings" (see screenshots)?
I'm not on any aspect a Dev but I give you all my energy on continuing the developpment of this ROM.
Any other support available ?

Hmmm. Then is must be a problem with my german providers (with their apn I think); I've tested two: T-Mobile and O2. With both I can't make outgoing calls...
New version out; see 1st post

Pretty strange, indeed.
The phone i tested with is on another provider than my z5c.
I got to say that i checked the apn before making my tests, and they were good.
I will retry with the new version tonight .
Thanks
The APN shouldn't matter for regular calls unless you're using Wifi calling or VoLTE, maybe disable both and see if it works.
