CyanogenMod - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am using Samsung Galaxy Ace 2.
I was doing a research about CyanogenMod, and I read that allmost everywhere there are some things that doesnt work. For example camera,bluetooth etc.
I just rooted my phone Just for that mod.... and if I cant get my cam or BT to work I dont find it useful. Is there any chance of getting fully working cyanogenmod ?
Thanks

Well that is all up to the hard working devs of your phone
It might take sometime to fix it or it might never be fixed. It depends on if the rom is official cyanogenmod or a unofficial rom and how much effort devs are willing to put in.

Could you tell me if this is the official rom? I cant really understand. I would like to get official one if possible.

if its not from http://get.cm/ then its not official cm rom from cm dev/maintainer.

Well seeing as the ace us a different device from the ace 2 you really can't flash roms made for a different phone unless you know how to port it to your phone.

Ace 2 doesn't have Official CM Support.
These bugs in unofficial builds are due to lack of sources from companies that are reluctant to open source their drivers.

ok you say i can use this cm10 version?
is there something important that i must look for?
All CM roms apart from thoes built by the guy that started cyanogenmod. Start as unofficial ones. Once a dev shows the rom works correctly, he can submit his source to the cyanogen repo. Thats when you get nightlys.

i really don't understand people's needs to get "official" CM status...it's not any better...if you want it official, then your welcome to make it "official"
ok and i think when its still not official there are a few bugs. how can i update the system then? i dont like to do all time a total update witch delet all my apps and other dates. is there a simpley way?
sry for all the stupid questions but i am total noob in android haha
i had 4 years long a iphone and now i have android ^^

Quuestion For P769 Users...

Hello guys carloswii5 here and i had a quick question for you guys that have unlocked bootloaders what would you want to see first an MIUI V4(cant do MIUI V5 found out some critical info so maybe later for it) port or an AOKP CM10 build? im ready to start porting or building either one but i want your guys opinion so i can focus on one for right now and get it as fully functional as i can so you guys can use it as a daily and make the P760 users jealous (if you guys choose MIUI sinse they already got AOKP xD ) but let me know
(Edit)Ok so process has uhhhhh stopped for a while since me being an idiot and accidently flashing the incorrect zip has caused my phone to be (drum rollllllllllllllll) HARD BRICKED yea so im probably going to get another one sometime this week but im going to keep on decompiling framework and etc.. so when i do get it im going to root,unlock bootloader,install recovery, and flash MIUI yayyyy =D
(Edit) okay so i got a new phone going to root and stuff but quick update MIUI is going to take longer than expected so I'm going to ask pinoyto if i can take over his thread and update the ROM but don't worry i am still going to work on MIUI
Yes! MIUI would be a nice change of pace. If 1080p camcorder works even better!
Thank you for your efforts and accepting input from the community!

is there a cm 10.1 for p769 that we don't have to flash it to make it a P760?
I just want a stable stock android experience! Does the cm10.1 provide stability? I have no use for the mediocre camera, so the 1080p video not working doesn't bother me.

[ROM] [WIP] [VOLUNTEERS-NEEDED] AOSP-based ROM port from the Moto G

This is a project I started to work on an AOSP ROM for our Grand 2.
When it gets to boot successfully, I'll make a DevDB thread for it.
The Grand 2 and the Moto G share the same chipset, the Sanpdragon 400. I'm downloading it and applying a few patches to see if it works.
I'll upload my success/failure here.
This is also a request for devs to help.
you would have better luck porting the sgs3/4/5/note3/mega CM rom, because they were made by samsung.
even though they dont have the same cpu it would literally be easier to port cm from one of those devices than from a different OEM.

I'm going to try it if my Moto G ROM port fails. But don't these devices have totally different CPUs? The only other Samsungs with this chip are the Tab 4 variants (a ported Tab 4 ROM won't work) and the S3 Neo+, which doesn't have any custom ROM.

As you are a developer, can you help me if I use a CM ROM from the devices you mentioned? The patch applied only works for ROMs for the same CPU type. I don't think it will work in this case. And does a TouchWiz kernel work over an AOSP/CM ROM.
that was my point, that those devices are closer because it has teh name samsung on it than this does to the moto g with the same chipset.
the moto g roms dont boot on the moto g 4g, times have changed to where roms are VERY device specific. i mean CWM has to have 2 versions because teh 4.3 version wont even work on teh 4.4 version..

Moto G ROM failed to boot. Though it passed the GALAXY GRAND 2 SM-G7102 thing at boot, it gives a flash of light and reboots the phone. Probably a result of using a TouchWiz kernel?
Failure will be uploaded later today.
My patch was about copying files from a Grand 2 ROM (TouchWiz used) to the new ROM.
IT FAILED. Trying on the Mega 6.3's CM build.

no its because you used a cm rom that wasnt made for this device. you cnat port roms like that you need to take teh device tree and fully make cm11 using that and compile it.
wat about miui??

Which I didn't ever understand. Can you help me?
Do you take the device tree thing as a file?
Is building CM from that harder than building a computer program using VB.NET, or harder?
Can you help me cuz I never built a ROM that way.
If it needs Linux, then I got it (32-bit Ubuntu and x86_64 Fedora), though Windows is better.
And thanks for patience with my dumb questions

I found this thing. Can you help me by translating this to human-understandable form? Could you just carry out the steps and I'll test and do virtually everything you need to do as if you had the device in your two bare hands?
Or can you just give me instructions and I'll execute?
No.
building Cm is fairly straight forward if your device is officially supported, this device doesnt have anything. someone needs to download the source code for CM, grab my devices trees and add in all the missing info by studying the stock rom and comparing it to similar device. this can take anywhere from days to months, and even then some devices end up with stuff that is forever broken.

Thanks a lot.
So it needs a really experienced developer, whereas I am a Grade 10 student at school who knows no android programming. Sorry for wasting your precious time. But do you anyone who's willing to do it? I have school, and my parents do not let me give up schoolwork to porting a ROM.
Sorry but there isnt a bunch of peopel out there waiting for new phones to port CM to, how it works is someone with the phone ports cm and once it is considered good enough is submitted to be made official through their gerrit. then they have to become the maintainer of it and any code changes, updates etc have to be handled. its a lot of work. it doesnt need to be experienced, just a matter of fast learning as well as having a background in java/c really helps.

Thanks. Do you have the a link to the vendor trees? I'll try to check them. But tell me how to compare them and where is the missing info to add. I'll do it. Fast learning is done while you tell me to compare. So, it's me downloading the device and vendor trees, then what? Your turn.
P.S. 1. Stuff that's forever broken came to happen with the Galaxy Star. It has a CM ROM, which boots, but has no audio, no ril, no camera, and broken menu/back keys.
2. Are you American? I was born there too! Nice coincidence!
BTW, which state are you from? I'm from Illinois.

Not exactly. There's a lot of work to be done on ril, camera, Wi-Fi, and other hardware drivers, in addition to the kernel. I'm thinking about borrowing some files from the ill-fated CM build.

Hey friend,
Thank you for giving me this fantastic news, I was desperately longing to hear it.
You have my good wishes

When this version done I will try lollipop.
it's fantastic

That is great news indeed. I was quite bummed to see no N3N in the official CM12 supported devices list. I don't get it. This is a brand new 2014 device yet bizzare old phones like Evo 4G is in the official CM12 list.
Many thanks for your effort.
I hope everything goes ok and we can have this great Rom soon.
This device needs more people like you!

It is very strange, yep, we don't have the right support for this good device, few customs rom (that exist thanks to the effort of few developers that decide to create something) .. i hope that the situation will change in the next future but it's not so easy, maybe there is not the sufficent marketing and selling of note 3 neo in the global market, so the poor diffusion maybe is the reason of this situation.

Firmware question

I've been looking but can't find anything official. What is the latest official android version for this device? I found this site that says this device got Lollipop Spring last year: http://htcsource.com/2015/01/leaked-document-reveals-htcs-lollipop-update-roadmap/
My device is still on 4.4.2 though even after running the latest RUU I could find.
