Rom without MIUI - Xiaomi Mi Max 2 Questions & Answers

Will there be a custom rom without MIUI?
I am definately confused about the situation here. Are the kernel resources all completely released? Is there a progress in developing a "free" rom for this absolutely phantastic device?
Nevertheless, the lineage is at the moment the best rom for me, but it is groundet due to gpl violations. How comes? Thought it is free???!!! Will there be a dev, coming up with a new lineageos? With all functions working? Is it time to say good bye before the progress startet???? Is there someone with a better an real view on these questions? Thx, Ray

Well there is a bit of development. Let's hope that it gets better but at the end we can't do anything more than this. Besides this I have currently my examination going on, I am not a dev but with my brother we will try to port some roms from Mido to oxygen. Let's hope that situations get better.

Need a little help.

OK so I plan to build us another great ROM for our device but I just need a few things.
1st) Can someone please point me to the device tree and kernel source to build android 5.1, all I could find was a bunch of cm11 stuff.
2nd) I need some developer support. I tried making a ROM before for a Samsung player and I was kinda left to do it alone so I would really appreciate some help.
I will be trying to make Bliss Pop ROM because it is fast, smooth and highly customizable. I'm going to attach a poll and I ask that the L90 users vote on which of the ROMS they want me to port. After this I look forward to making a custom kernal that's completely separated from the ROM and that can just be flashed in recovery.
I would love to make this for the D415, D405,D405N, and the D410. Thanks!
Look at Quarx's github.

What kernel do you suggest I use? I want a customizable kernel.

You can customize every kernel if you have the skills to. Use just the normal kernel on Quarx's github. https://github.com/Quarx2k/android_kernel_lge_msm8226/tree/cm-12.1

I know the basics. And all that I am just trying to make a ROM that will work on all variants and will be something the users actually will want to use. I know how to develop a ROM.
Beanstalk! I loved using this back on my old Nexus One, and I forgot all about it until I pulled it out and attempted to resurrect it a couple weeks ago. Unfortunately, that Beanstalk port was way to buggy to use, but I would really love to see it on the L90! I am currently really liking Resurrection Remix, but I wouldn't mind having two equally awesome ROMs to choose from.
I currently have no experience developing Android anything (very minimal experience with programming), but I wouldn't mind learning/helping if someone wants to point me in the right direction and won't laugh at any newbie mistakes. I could also be a tester as long as there isn't much likelihood of bricking the phone (have a d415, by the way).

Thanks I'll let you know how you can help. I'll probably begin work on the highest voted on ROM thursday manly because I'm sick right now. I'll be sure to make sure it won't brick your D415 before I ask testers to flash the ROM. Thanks again!
Its official!!!
I'm gonna start building Bliss Pop ROM Tomorrow and my friend is gonna start building Liquid Smooth sometime this week if not in the next 2 days. Both will be Android 5.1. Can't wait to roll out first build of these awesome ROMS!

[Kernel}[CM11][Source][WIP]Cyangenmod11 Kernel Source for Samsung Gear by Count

First of all, every credit goes to Count([email protected]). He did everything to port CM11 and its Kernel source to Gear 1.
Second, I am just a mere messenger. I am not the developer! I don't have any knowledge about building android. I just wanted to contribute to this amazing forum. If you have any question regarding complex android internal things, send them to Count himself to the email above.(Count and I are Koreans, so our English will not be good
Third, this is a development section. No noob or meaningless questions. I won't answer them(I am a student, so I don't have much time, either.).
Forth, this kernel's state is WIP(Work in progress). ANY damage or loss due to using this source is your own risk!
Fifth, this is my first time writing a thread. If I have to write something more(I heard about GNU, but not sure how it works), please kindly tell me.
Screenshots of CM11 is in attachments
I hope development of Gear 1 will rise once again with this kernel source.
Here is the Github link :
https://github.com/tyler6389/android_kernel_samsung_ls02
Enjoy
P.S. Count is working on CM12.1, too, but don't get excited. Too much issues in this moment.

[ROM][ALPHA][WIP]'DayDream' CM11 based Rom for Gear 1
A rom to test CM11 in Gear 1.
Warning! This rom is in early Alpha stage and is really laggy and unstable. Flash this at your own risk!
This is real CM11 based rom. Made by Korean developers(including Count). Looks really good.
Battery life is great, but again, this is really laggy and unstable! ANY damage or loss due to using this Rom is your own risk!
Working
Boot
Touch
Button
Not Working
Camera
Bluetooth pairing
and many thing I didn't(and doesn't want to) try.
Please don't fill this thread with nooby questions. The rom is mainly for developers who wants to build stable and fast rom.
Users can use it, but no spamming in this thread(e.g. XX doesn't work! halp!). Every feedback will be ignored unless you have a logcat or a really specific detailed explanations.
If you want development conversation, please contact Count with email(in OP).
Installation :
do a factory reset in TWRP
flash this rom
reboot(initial boot takes 5~10 minutes)
enjoy

Great news, do you have the github source code for the cm11 and cm12?
@litan1106
Count ports CM from existing smdk4x12(exynos 4412) devices, so we don't have any sources for CM.
I flashed the cm11 apha1 for the gear, it's a bit slow but it's looking good.

It is a sort of a variant of CM11. Mainly made for design.
Count said he had increased the performance by editing the Mali drivers, so hopefully it will be faster when he releases the next version.
any chance for android wear ?
ddaggebi WOW good work
atleast there is someone who is still interested in developing for our beloved galaxy gear wish looks better than the gear s2
Time to get the dust from my good ol' Galaxy Gear. First it was about time to get rid of Tizen on it. That downgrade manual here worked very well. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2776157)
Just needed Odin 3.09 (http://androidhost.org/PVAIv) and Samsung's USB drivers (http://developer.samsung.com/technical-doc/view.do?v=T000000117) for downgrading. After this was finished and it was able to boot on the old Samsung Linux AND WITH working touchscreen, I did a reset and flashed TWRP from here with Odin: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2537338 Last part was adb sideloading this test ROM here. Of course not working at first due to missing ADB drivers. I modded these here: https://dl-ssl.google.com//android/repository/latest_usb_driver_windows.zip with that android-winusb.inf http://pastie.org/10428849 Works really really nice. Not very useful yet, but it's SOO great to see work bein done on this old device
Wow, just wow. Almost 2 years after buying this I see that people are still developing for my watch !? and kitkat 4.4.4 (and soon lollipop it seems) means a possibility for android wear maybe ! That's cool ! Big up from France to the dev if he comes here ahah
Is there a way like with null_ rom thought to still be able to have notifications on it like with TW rom ?
This looks so sweet. Hopefully Bluetooth pairing works out soon. would really like to try this out, downloading Rom now.
Thanks for all the hard work on this to all involved
Any work still being done on this?
Wait, you can install CM11 on a gear 's? Wouldn't you lose all Bluetooth stuff?

Developers says he is still working on perfecting cm11 and making cm12.1. It will take some time 'cause he has many devices to develope for.

CM 12.1 For S2

Could someone educate me on what it takes to get CM 12.1 on to the S2?
I understand that you have to root, install TWRP, and flash the ROM but who actually puts together CM 12.1 rom together and makes it compatible for the S2? Is it the official CM team or a developer on this forum who takes the time and energy to put it all together?
Thank you for your help in educating me......
There is no Cyanogen for our tablet for the moment
You can check here : http://download.cyanogenmod.org/
So it is the CM Team that takes the time, energy, and resources to put it together for the S2?
I will keep an eye on the CM website and hope they put something together soon. I wish I had someway to contribute but my skill set is very limited.
Thanks

No.. it takes someone with enough knowledge to build it for our hardware. I've never done it, but I'm attempting. Learning as I go... emphasis on attempting.
Okay - That makes sense.... I will help test if you get to that point.
Would be nice with cm12 but probably with lots of drawbacks. Samsung won't release source code of drivers and could be problematic with exynos nor will fingerprintscanner work.

Sent from my not-so-stock SM-T810
CM is always buggy and lots of features wont work or plain buggy. Bloat is very minimal and works quite smoothly stock. Dont blame you if you like the "fun" of constantly flashing roms and waitkng for bug fixes.

Hey there. As a dev myself I will explain you the difference between official CM builds (build = the ROM) and unofficial builds. Official builds are made by the pros. The guys that are in the CyanogenMod group. They know how things work and patch them due their high knowledge. They will try to update the ROM regularly and fix it as well as they can. Then there are the unofficial builds from people like me. It depends what your skills are and with what board you are working (Exynos is a pain in the ass). Not to forget what version of android your device is currently running. Unofficial builds can be buggy and could take some time to get fixed. However devs will listen to the feedback of the community too.

Bliss ROM: why closed thread and is it good?

Hi, I am looking for a new ROM for my Mi Mix and thought that the Bliss Rom looks the most promising to me.
However, the thread has been closed by the author, @heindrix and moderator @gregbradley without explanation.
Anyone knows why it is closed and if the ROM is a dead-end?
Thanks!

Hi there,
It's glad to see that somebody still wants to use the rom i maintained some times ago.
Unfortunately i've been so busy in my job, and well i've switched device to OP6T, that's why i decided to close the thread down to prevent any long wait and further disappoinment for never-ending wait.
Last time i checked the Bliss Rom source, they already updated and patched many things i've done before, so i can tell you that the source already very dependable.
All you need is another dev to cook it using Lineage Tree, and all will be good. :fingers-crossed:
Thank you so much for your answer @heindrix!
Still, even if it is not the latest source code, is your latest build stable enough to be used day-to-day? The comments look good and there does not seem to be any major bug (like the proximity sensor, for example).

if i remember, the last build fairly good but can be improved. last time i've build the new update but i've deleted it and forgot to post it, lol.
i suggest you use rom build by inkypen. :fingers-crossed:
SyberiaOS I suppose? (there are at least two)
So, I actually tried first to install Bliss and it is so nice that I don't see any reason to try another one! Thanks @heindrix !
Maybe there is something I am missing about what can provide an actively maintained ROM?

yeah, actually the rom from Bliss Team is very nice, it's full of features, and it's still my favorite team until now.
you can learn to build the rom and maintain it, there's so many tutorial and threads and telegram groups that will help you learn how to build a rom.

Could someone port oxygen os for k20 pro?

The phones are nearly identical will the same soc and camera, could oxygen os be ported for k20 pro, because let's face it, oxygen os is a lot better than miui. I want those fancy animations and buttery performance.

Many of us here are not as brilliant as you. So please stop bragging and making others feel bad. The discussion on this thread is getting hampered. There are many people who come to XDA just to find alternative ROMs. I jsut want a Oxygen os ROM that works in my phone, and this thread was started for that request. If you can't help, it's ok. But don't post something that makes people like us (Noobs) feel bad that we don't know something and dont answer. This makes the objective of the thread to be defeated.
So once again: if any has ported or made any custom oxygen ROM, please post it. I just want to flash that ROM, because I know that much

There's no problem to ask politely for a port. But it feels like you are demanding for one. Or that's what I get from your posts. This community is still in it's early stages I believe, so you will have to be patient. Most likely no one's working on a port yet.
Yes, I am polite and always request and never demanded anything here.

Brilliant or not... First you should search yourself a lil bit before posting some questions. This always the first rule here.
I tell you there is a 95% chance that nobody won't port OxygenOS to this device except the GSI rom. But good luck.
Anybody tried this? Is it booting or not?
