Hi, i got nice working zenfone port of lollipop 5.0
It have 500mb free ram and works very fast. Firmware is up to date. Will be good alternative for stock lg.
But wifi, camera and bluetooth does not work.
I rhink its a kernel problem.
With lg stock kernel (with asus ramdisk) is as i wrote but with cm12 kernel bluetooth works but touch is control only by circle point.
Ps every hw wifi bluetooth.. lib replace is a bootloop etc
Anyway i think it needs special kernel for this port,
Ps phones have the same cpu gpu etc very similar
Zenfone kernel source https://github.com/shakalaca/ASUS_ZenFone_A500KL?files=1
Dont know if lg shared their sources.
Anyone who have knowledge about building kernels (i dont have) please help thanks in advance

From what I understand, you used CM12 as base, right?
If you use the CM12 libs, does it bootloop?
Also, LG has shared their sources.

Thanks for answer.
No, stock 5.0.2 as base (but only zimage from kernel and firmare files from system\etc).and similar..
When i change libs to this from stock or cm i get bootloop.
I tried cm kernel but many bugs, only fixed bluetooth.
With lg kernel zimage and asus ramdisk rom works nice but must be something wrong with drivers because no wifi bluetooth and sdcard. Its possibble to fix it? By change some files from lg to asus kernel and build it?

I think that you need to get some files from LG kernel ramdisk to the one you are using.
Try to capture a logcat of what is failing (e.g. capture a logcat while trying to turn on WiFi, Bluetooth, etc.). It should give you an idea of what is causing stuff to fail.
BTW, you can find LG's sources here: http://opensource.lge.com/index

Ok, i will make logcat but i never build from source.
I will upload rom today for test.
Ps in rc files in ramdisk i remove # from the lines about sdcard it should fix no sdcard read but it makes bootloop.
Ok, anyway i will make logcat and i'll write here.
If you will have any idea - go ahead.
LOL. 5.0 ported from zenfone with cm12 kernel... hells mix.
You will not fix wifi or camera via rebuilding kernel.

5.0-5.0.2 api level 21- the same i used kernel from this old cm12 build (5.0.2 base).
I tried add missed lines in ramdisk files but bootloop ;\
I had no time yestarday but today i will try look for logcat.
If no solution by kernel rebuild so how to make it work if rom works nice, much better than stock lg.

I meaned that your idea to PORT abandoned android 5.0 (it's the worst version of new material-designed android versions) from another device to our and try to get working all parts (I am underlining word "PORT" again. That rom was BUILT not for our device specifies and have many wrong working blobs).

Maybe its worst ver but works better than 5.0.2 from lg.
You meant that is too much differences between firmares to make this port fully working? Even if the calling sound 4g etc works without much firmware modyfing, same cpu gpu.. I though its possibble to make it bug free with KK will be better, more easy or its stupid idea?

This is a dev thread. Do not install this release unless you know what you're doing. Do not post if you have nothing to contribute.
This is very early build, we're behind other qsd8k devices but will eventually catch up
Big thanks to all qsd8k developers working on this (N1, Desire, HD2, X10).
[KERNEL]
- ol' good 2.6.29-SEMC
- fixed touchscreen driver (now backward-compatibile with Gingerbread)
[ROM]
- partially based on drewis release (thanks!) - currently I don't have access to PC that could handle compilation of the whole thing
If someone could compile clean es209ra build and upload it would be awesome.
[WORKING]
- it boots
- radio, calls, txt (sms)
- audio partially working (in-call is fine, playing mp3/ringtones leads to WLOD)
- bluetooth, GPS seem to work
- wifi almost working ("can't find wlan0 device")
- mobile data (it gets IP but disconects afterwards, needs investiagtion)
[NOT WORKING]
- most of the stuff does not work
- quite unstable
[SOURCES]
Will upload all of the useful code/fixes here.
- ICS + GB compatibile touch driver: es209ra_touch_mt.c
- compatibile ramdisk (props FXP): http://www.mediafire.com/?1n51pn1upwv79ur

hi zdzihu, its great to see you back! is this only temporary or, are you going to be more active, like before?
mmmkay, I'm not dev, but I want to ask if you're compiling this from ground up (like Jerpelea's CM7), or you're like just mashup of current SE and ICS sources. if its a mashup, I can help. but I do very little design from ground up things.

if you have fixed audio hw sources i could recompile..
altho i have complete es209ra compile with ics hw, old cm gralloc / copybit sources and generic audio..
So for me doesn't even boot
As i came from night shift i will try later on more...
Here you are libhardware.so, libhardware_legacy.so & wpa_supplicant from my compiled ICS build so if someone can boot z rom maybe it could test this too

Hi Azuzu, I am able to compile single libs and binaries (libhw_legacy, supplicant), it's just dex and stuff causing problems (1GB of ram + 1.6GHz). As for libaudio, I will take a look soon

I help if u want
Hello guys, I'm new to the forum and I hope to see well with you.
I would be willing to help compile the source since EXCLUSIVELY use only Linux operating system and is much easier to work on programming because most of the libraries are already installed by default, I hope I was clear.

I will try to build ICS this weekend!
I have no time this weekday
Zdzihu, if the wifi still reports the same error (can't find wlan0 device), it probably means that the kernel refers to wlan interface as eth0. Try changing the wifi.interface entry in build.prop to eth0.
little help for folks that compile ICS on weak pc

Well to me helped so maybe it helps other ppl.
Has anyone pulled this Kernel apart, i'm trying to lock down some of the touch screen info but I can't gunzip the ICS ramdisk...not even sure if i should be able to.
I GPIO the main files out, can't see anything pertinent in there, so I can only assume its in this ramdisk...biggest problem is that if it is a corrupted archive I can't get ubuntu to open a recovery tool cos it's implementation of the Zlib system sucks dice

sorry for posting here. but is for development. for ICS, can we used modified 2.6.29, and modify, like what zdzihu did, it so it 100% or do we have to use 3.x (or whatever) becuase I'm starting to do kernel mods and I want to see what I can contribution.
so in all, does the newest kernel have to be ported? or can we continue using good old 2.6.29 and keep Modding it? (hopefully camera will work, drivers have to be rewritten for kernel. and no one likr to write drivers)

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19774268#post19774268
Just rambling here. In order to get ICS ported to the Venue, we need compatible kernel drivers. It appears, from what I can find on the 'net, that Qualcomm isn't releasing drivers for the QSD8250 for ICS. Looking around XDA, I see the HTC Desire (GSM), also based on the '8250, has a working ICS beta found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1403113. This appears to use a Tiamat kernel, http://tiamat-dev.com/tiamat_bravo/. Using the AOSP 4.0.x repository, the Dell info from http://opensource.dell.com/releases/venue/v4.06/ and the Tiamat kernel, is it possible to pull together an ICS port? I wish I had more experience with this type of stuff...
Dell used the CAF 8260 GB sources when building 4xx roms, they simply backported whatever they need to from their already working 3xx codebase for whatever was needed (i assume)
CAF itself dropped support for 8x50 in their GB codebases, but the 8x60 is close enough it didnt really matter ultimately.
Much of the drivers arnt even in the kernel, they're in the android userland which is Apache and not gpl, hence the driver issue.
Which ever method you (presumedly do) to get the kernel booting under ICS doesnt really matter, but the more difficult/time-consuming methods will ultimately be more useful for porting to newer kern versions.
Don't forget the Nexus One and, IIRC, the HD2 also use the 8250
I would think this would help too: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/qualcomm-releases-adreno-2xx-gpu-binaries-for-ics/
Too bad the development work is well outside my capabilities. Maybe our Korean friends are working on it though.
Guys.!!! Dell venue n dell streak 5got same rom n environment hardware too just diffrence is venue is Hdpi n dell streak is Mdpi .so why do nt we join hands n make ics work for dell or on other hand u can take advantage of our dell streak 5 formus there r few good roms like longhorn 2.8 with Hdpi support for dell Venue and Dcs 1.1.which supports both hdpi n mdpi just need to edit build.prop n may be kernel....whish u all safe cooking ...n Friends in need friend indeed ..

Folks, I can see that Qualcomm released Adreno 200 drivers for ICS several months ago (Mar) (https://developer.qualcomm.com/mobi...phics-optimization-adreno/tools-and-resources).
Information in the above page also says that, the drivers has been tested on CAF M8960AAAAANLYA1030. As I noticed, whenever we get the source code from Code Aurora, there is also a kernel directory included. Do you think that we can start from that kernel to port ICS to Venue?

Yes we can,
But I aint that good into dev
This mobile has what it requires to run ICS
The kernel itself ultimately doesnt matter, as long as it has the right code changes merged in.
The current S5 ICS kernel's lineage is:
S5/405 (dell) -> Phoenix kernel/GB (n0p) -> Phoenix/cm7.2 (hPa) ?-> Phoenix/cm9 (hPa) -> Phoenix/AOSP (kibuuka)
Only the final step involved merging in any changes to make it work with ics, ultimately it's based mostly on the phoenix GB kernel which itself is based on the S5's 405 kernel
S5 405 = S5 408 = V 406 = V 408, they're all the same kernel (with ifdefs/configs for the S5/V).
I'd imagine getting a V kernel to boot ICS period is 85% of the work as the S5's froyo/GB kernels can directly boot V froyo/gb roms, and the reverse would likely hold.
The kernel 405/6/7/8 from Dell can be built successfully, however there are known issues such as after charging, we won't be able to boot the kernel up. I do not have a Streak, so I wonder whether those issues are fixed well in Phoenix kernel Manii? Can you show me how to get the source for the latest phoenix kernel that you're using with your Streak AOSP? Maybe I will try to build with Venue myself to see how things work!
phoenix kernel/ICS - Github
It's currently in the process of being merged back in.
You could try diffing S5 405 with V 406 and seeing what's changed in the source, they're nearly identical, but I dont expect them to be bit identical

Sounds interesting, that's exactly what I did in my custom overclocked kernel. However, I will be able to save some time by using their kernel directly. In fact, I think that 405/407 kernel is not very different from 406 since my build for 405 also ran on DV too.
I will try with their "master"/experimental14 branch kernel first (to CM 7.2.0). Thanks for your information!

Will be waste of time as only streak-specific file is board-qsd8x50_austin.c, other changes are device-independent.
Changes that essential to run ics with hwa:
kgsl3.8 - kernel-side drivers are in drivers/video/msm - direct drop in instead of one that's shipped with stock 405 kernel
include/linux/msm-kgsl.h - to make kgsl3.8 build
(not really)*streak-specific*changes to arch/arm/mach-msm/board-qsd8x50_austin.c - changes in hardware init routines needful for kgsl3.8 (updated data structures, powerrail). In short - do a diff for board-qsd8x50_austin.c between Phoenix and ics branches to find out what's changed - to be honest - changes are generic for qualcomm devices, so direct copy/paste of changes into your device's board file will do the job
Other patches that were applied to ics branch are optional (cpu governors, io schedulers, netfilter specific changes (these are only needed if you need ics' mobile data usage collecting/limits features)) or affect streak-specific drivers only (and are not ics-specific).
So, in short - update your device's board file and use ics branch - that would be enough.

Do you think I can start with the stock kernel, download the ICS tree including the kernel, then do the diff/merge between device's board file from ICS kernel to Dell kernel? After that, the original Dell kernel is patched with new stuffs for ICS, and can be used with ICS ROM?
i can also provide you with all patches made for streak against aosp source tree for shortening your mileage and instructions for a quickstart (my streak is broken at the moment, so i've suspended my development activities and got spare time for that)
please mention kernel for streak's ics is being built separately at the moment (i've got plans incorporating it in aosp build process, but it will take some time)
when i've messed with streak kernel making it ics-friendly i've realised that most of stuff can be made cross-compatible between two devices.
It's 95% the kernel, the only thing left is to turn off the rotation patch and swap out the BCM4325 for BCM4239 drivers.
On stock 3/4xx i can directly load venue roms on my S5 and only wifi is broken. (with a S5 kernel) Everything else works.

rotation is triggerable through kernel configuration menu. check.
as of wifi - is there any known-to-be-trustable list of hardware components for venue?
The V is just an S5 without the hdmi and whatever provides usb hosting.
The only other notable change is the wifi chip.
All the other sensors are compatable, and so is the modem+ril.
(I was able to get 3g working, but not wifi due to the chip being different)
I dont think anyone has done a (good quality) teardown on the V though.
Most I can offer is to pull details android gives back while it's on.
I'm guessing that's how CM7.2 was ported, since hPa didnt actually own a V,
he just took his S5 build, and flicked a few switches.
(it helped a lot that CM7.2 doesnt need any kernel changes to boot, it's just the stock 408 one with a modded ramdisk)
He only had access to a V for like a day or so.

Hi Kibuuka, that sounds good, could you please share?
One more thing I would like to ask is, the stock kernels 405/407 and 406 have issues regarding power (sometime I can see the issue that after charging, screen goes black and we can only quit that situation by removing the battery). How did you address it? (I notice that your kernel works well on my CM7, without that issue - or is just simply because it has not happened yet?)
n0p did enormous amount of work addressing sleep of death issue (which, i believe is one you refer to), so dsc kernels (opposed to stock ones) are free of this bug. Ask him for details (i wasn't involved to dsc development at the point he managed to fix it) as he's best source of information on SoD issue fix you could find
As of aosp patchset - will upload it during weekends.
For whatever it's worth, as soon as we get a working ICS level kernel, I plan on porting TWRP and CWM-touch.
Those require ICS kernels (or rather it's a great deal more difficult to make them run on GB kernels) and I cant port them until then.
I've already gotten TWRP and CWM-touch working on the S7, and plan on porting TWRP to the S10 now.
Edit: come to think of it, I actually have TWRP running on a 5xx kernel (which is HC), i'll try simply porting and seeing what happens
Introduction:So I see you have found my Android M Preview ROM thread. So... You all might of seen this. It's Sony announcing that it's AOSP open line of Xperia devices can now build Android M and is showing devs how to build it. Apparently things aren't exactly that way. Google created under it's source code, an alpha branch for the upcoming Android M, what that branch contains is mostly Android Lollipop code and some Android M stuff. This branch will evolve to become Android M, but at it's current state, the ROM is in between Android lollipop and M (kind of a weird mix of a sort that's why the build number is 5.1.51 and the easter egg is the one of lollipop). I will however provide weekly (hopefully) builds of Android M as it becomes more M than L. Keep in mind that the current release of the ROM (as of 25-6-2015) does not contain the new API's (for devs that are interested). You can see Sony's official explanation here. If you are still interested though in checking out the current state of Android M be my guest though keep in mind that in it's current state it is FAR from a daily driver (modem and camera are the most major of bugs currently) and most if not all of the cool features on Android M developer preview for the Nexus line probably are not currently included (as on 25-6-15).
Warning
This works only on UNLOCKED BOOTLOADERS. Keep in mind that the ROM was built for the D6603 I don't know if it will work with any other variant of the Z3. In addition flashing this might erase recovery on some devices. Also I take no responsibility of whatever may happen by using this ROM.
Downloads (please read the Introduction if you haven't, its important )Kernel
System
Userdata
Installation:1. Backup EVERYTHING (Your SD card included. This ROM has proven to be unpredictable as of storage on some handsets).
2. Download the Kernel, System and Userdata images
3. Get yourself a working ADB/Fastboot installation (more on that on the kernel page)
4. Flash the kernel as described on it's page (Steps 1-7)
5. While still in fastboot mode enter these commands in the command prompt:
Code:
fastboot flash system (directory of system image)
fastboot flash userdata (direcotry of userdata image)
6. Reboot your device and wait for it to start up

Actually I haven't, even Sony states that Camera & Modem are guaranteed broken. Even if the modem was fixed (which I believe it will in the next few weeks) the ROM still needs a lot of work for all the other bugs. Although about the baseband, I think M requires a special version of the baseband because even when you flash the official M preview over the Nexus 5, you have to flash a new baseband that is compatible with Android M. I am currently away from my Z3 but if someone tries it out and confirms it working I would gladly add it to the main thread.
Wow, that was fast, need i say more??
@corpsegrinder62 Actually, considering the announcement date it is fast. I dualbooted my PC with linux just 36 hours ago, downloaded the sources and compiled... XD

@CedArctic
it may be that the flashing the rom erase the baseband
have you tried to reinstall a baseband after flash the rom?

Some modem components are stored on /system and not included for legal reasons in Sony's AOSP binary releases. https://github.com/SuperBenevolent/aosp-vendor-qcom-proprietary
At least with L-MR1, the ONLY things missing for modem to work are the blobs above. Dunno about M, I'm not bothering to mess with it until official M release.
Woaw, nice to see android m being worked on even though it's in its early stages.
Is that my build you are running?
Installed a few minutes ago. Thank you for compiling the source code.
Am I wrong or can´t I flash GApps?
Edit: Also I cannot use any storage. Not internal and not sd card
@Silveryard Yeah there are like lots of bugs... I hope some will be solved in the future. Storage is definetely one of them. I never tried to flash gapps though
It´s because some .apk files (like the play framework) cannot be installed with adb install command and require a custom recovery kernel or root or root for writing permissions in "system"
I don´t know much about compiling a system image but is it possible to place the gapps files into the right folder right before compiling everything in one file? This would help much and would make this preview much more usable in daily life.
Thank you! I'll be trying this on my D6653.

@squabbi Cool bro @M-Rom Congrats for your work bro, I saw the FlyMe OS port... simply loved it... although I'm curious how did you port it? Because I tried to do so in the past... @Aaahh I'll take a look into it. I think storage is just the storage-list.xml in the framework.... Thanks for the guide

What? I'm not sure what your talking about
Just to repeat, those are the actual M preview apps and I "fixed" them so that you can add them to your rom
@Aaahh you posted a quote of me about storage and I said now that I think I know that the issue is in the storage-list.xml in the framework. I will include your apps in the next build, but for now I am focusing on a different project until M becomes more stable...

!!!!PLEASE READ THIS SECTION BEFORE PROCEEDING TO FLASH THIS ROM!!!!
This is based of @vampirefo 's LineageOS , with my tweaks as I now use the port section to test and share with others to help the original LineageOS by @vampirefo to gain fixes
What works : so far , Ril(sim cards) , Bluetooth , Wifi , Audio , Microphone , HotSpot , Rotation .
Bug: Camera (really hard to fix)
P.S- THIS IS NOT A DAILY DRIVER READY ROM , THIS IS PURELY EXPERIMENTAL AND FOR THE JOY OF IT. DONT COME TO ME IF SOMETHING WENT WRONG . FEEL FREE TO REPORT MAJOR BUGS , BY MAJOR WE ( THE R1 HD'S ROUNDTABLE TEAM ) MEAN BUG AND GLITCHES THAT HINDER A NORMAL DAY 2 DAY USAGE OF THE ROM....SMALLER BUGS WILL BE LOOKED AT LATER IF POSSIBLE.

Ive Been looking around to find new roms that i could port to the R1HD. Ive ported about 5-8 roms that work on the R1 HD but only 2 works flawlessly but the others have a camera issue ( camera not connecting ).
Now ive found a x32-bit CM14.1 for the MT6735 , that works on the device that it was built for. Of course I quickly went to attempt to port it but no luck as of now. The issue seems to be that the /system partition is not mounted correctly in regards to our boot image .
Here are the links for those who want to look at it with us ( R1 HD's Round Table )
Where i saw the post : https://vk.com/smart_rom (scroll down a little bit and you guys will see cm14.1 mt6735, they even made a 64bit now)
Where the test builds are posted and also the sources : https://github.com/olegsvs/android_device_archos_persimmon/releases (now they are testing Resuretion Remix 5.8.XX)
It just to prove that MT6735 can also be running Android 7 as well.
As a team we can make this happen and bring new life to the R1 HD.
Update : Now a Resurection Remix 5.8 is also running on the MT6735 x32. ---> https://vk.com/wall-77256552_14248

Can you post links for the working Roms? I have been searching for a working Roms for quite some time and I can't manage to find one, don't know how you did it!
I will re-download and fix them to re-upload but only the one that everything works including the camera.

Great!! Let me know if you get 14.1 up and running. I'm a huge cm fan and would love the nougat features! Thanks in advance for your hard work.
Great!!! Uyeee!!
Finally we are getting Nougat
UPDATE
STUCK IN SETUP WIZARD
Keyboard is fc
+++Fixed+++
But is Android marshamallow rom port
Can wait to try any cm 14.1 build
For our Phone
Cheers
Keep THE good job
quick update,found another CM14.1 thats compiled for a MT6737 device with a 3.18.19 kernel , i'm going to test it out because one of the port i made was also from a MT6737 device.

aospkeyboard.....during setup avoid anything that requires you to type anything just skip them , then once pass that go to settings->about phone to activate develloper mode , then go to developer mode to enable usb debugging , then on your computer head over to apkmirror to download google keyboard or GBoard(new name for google keyboard), once downloaded open CMD(command prompt) or terminal (for mac n linux users ) type adb install ( then drag the downloaded keyboard in this spot of this message with just 1 space apart from last typed word wich is install in our case then hit enter)........once the install is complete head back to setting then language & input and switch it to GBoard or something else if you decided to get a different keyboard.
with the new cm14.1 that i found today thats built for a 3.18.19 this time actually mount's the system partition and now im able to grab logcats and dmesg ect.... right now what im seeing are egl/mali errors......but i really think we could use that source and use our binary files to build the r1 its own cm14.1 tree
other devs check update 2 in OP.
Modifying an updater-script from a different device and ROM would not necessarily work. IIRC, The Galaxy S2 and Galaxy S Blaze 4G was able to do that, but in this instance, with different phone hardware, this would not work. Luckily, you did not get bricked from doing this. Unless you are completely building from source, with the R1 files, these dirty ports will take a hefty amount of time. I recommend building a device tree and start building with the kernels that either you have found, or have been created on this forum.

from my experience with porting , modding the updaterscript doesnt cause much threat since i remove any other potential threats to the device and of course i dont flash the boot.img that's for the other device....pretty much i modded the updaterscript just to that it flashes the rom to the right partitions for the device im flashing , yesterday was the first time i ported a kernel (boot.img-kernel) from another device's boot.img and it booted the R1, the only thing that did not work was the sim cards since the kernel was compiled with a different driver that was for the other device. it even added in the settings menu a fingerprint option (of course did not work) even tho the R1 does not have a fingerprint sensor. so my conclusion was that the other device is pretty much a clone of the R1 with a slight difference in some hardware , the purpose of the kernel port was to see if it will boot the r1 wich it did but more is the fact that the other device has a defconfig for a 64bit version as well wich the R1 does not and building a 64bit kernel for the r1 would allow me to port over so many more roms. I really wish the devs of this community would take interest in this because this would change the R1 alot.

Update 2 : here is the boot image i used to get the CM14 system partition to be up and allowed me to use a few adb/shell commands ,this by any mean does not mean that CM14.1 booted properly , theres alot of issues , i could not as of now even get the boot animation to load . this is purely experimental. : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzU6b7lzLmttSThpX3ctbHNkcFU/view?usp=sharing
And heres the CM14 i downloaded and tested it : https://github.com/DeckerSU/android_device_smart_surf2_4g/releases/tag/0.2alpha
Also of other dev out there are going to take a crack at it the initial updaterscript wasnt correct so replace it with this updaterscript : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzU6b7lzLmttVVh0NUQxWjRNODg/view?usp=sharing
this is yet another step foward for R1 HD.

Why not create Support for F2FS IN DATA PARTITION
This Will increase perfomance a Lot AND running cm14.1 64bits
This device Will fly!!!

Unless we can actually compile a fully working rom for the R1 , for f2fs to properly work both rom and kernel has to support it..that also includes the twrp.
As of now we still can't figure out whats missing that's stopping a compiled rom for our device (ex. cm13 from @vampirefo and @bullet25 )to boot.
Damn! What do you think about Lenovo k80m
4GB ram 64G storage
Intel Atom procesador it Is worth it Upgrade from Blu R1 this Phone Is stock in kit kat 4.4.4
http://m.gsmarena.com/lenovo_k80-7216.php
I know this Is a off topic question
But Is just $139 AND you got 64GB of storage AND 4G ram
The zenfone 2 4GB RAM it Is in the same pricetag but Is only 16GB storage
Woah,kitkat in 2018? You got to be crazy!
Hello guys, you may have noticed my absence from the forums as of late. 2017 was a really busy year for me. I had some free time during the holidays, and i finally got to bringup up kitkat for the z7 max from scratch, something that was on my mind for a long time. I consider kitkat to be the pinnacle of android as far as UI, performance and efficiency go, and while i use oreo on my redmi note 4x, i object with what google has brought to the table since lollipop in all areas.
My build is not vanilla lineage11/cm11 sources, i have used pac-rom kitkat(best rom ever for me) sources as well and ported all features to lineage11(or rather backported all the security fixes to the pacrom frameworks), therefore the rom has all the customization one could need.
The device tree is a heavily tweaked(almost built from scratch) oneplus one tree with many drivers from the opo(like wifi and bluetooth) ported to our device.
Kernel is pure nubia nx505j kitkat kernel as released from ZTE with the addition of opo wifi prima driver and some fixes to get it to compile and restore features like native panel d2tw, vibrator strength control and keydisabler(thanks to paolow8). Antutu scores about 52000, but the phone feels insanely faster than the heavily customized cm12.1/cm13/nougat kernels and battery life is the best i have ever seen on the device. I may add some features like f2fs support in future as well as upstream it to the latest linux version(3.4.113).
Vendor blobs consist mostly of the latest from nubia 1.64 firmware(last kitkat version), some opo blobs from latest cos11, and some from the latest lollipop 3.89 version.
Without further ado, here is the folder with the rom, newly built recovery by me with decryption support(encryption works fine on the rom) and some camera apps to improve your camera experience(i like oppo cam best): https://mega.nz/#F!10RmSaAJ!NhWzzW_E9Wimxi_LG3KlKA
To install it , you don't have to downgrade to kitkat or anything, the rom has unified partition support, and works fine with the latest 3.89 baseband(may even add the installer to flash it in later builds). Wiping data, cache and system should do(if you come from official lollipop or any of the new roms with unified data partition). Keep in mind that f2fs is not supported yet, therefore you will have to format your data partition to ext4 if you use f2fs.
I built this rom for my usage, therefore since i plan to use xposed and microg, signature spoofing and xposed work out of the box. No need to workarounds, patchers, modules or anything. The (un)official installers work without hiccups.
For the crazy enough to use this rom, have as much fun as i did developing it. Things i have to test yet are 2 sims together(both sim slots work with mobile data, just didnt have a second sim to test them together) and sdcard(should work fine). Everything else is tested and works fine.
Special thanks to paolow8, a great dev and his sources were a huge help.
PS. I will get my sources up on github as soon as i can.
Thank you for your work!
thank you for your work too !
Thanks, this is the most complete 4.4.4 Z7 Max ROM ever.
Are there any roms or custome recoveries for the ZTE Max Blue?
I agree 100% with you: 4.4.4 is state of the art. Questions: IR and screen trasmission works fine?
Edit: CHECK! Screen Trasmission works like a charm! IR says "not supported".
Thx's a lot, you have made an happy man
Edit 2: SDCARD don't work, for me. If you have a fix please share
Edit 3: For more precision: The unmountable partition is Ext Card.
While everything works perfectly (in recovery and in other ROMs) it is impossible to format or unmounting external card from Android-> Settings-> Storage.
The only flaw of an otherwise perfect ROM for me.
Is it a common problem? Did it happen to anyone? Please, if you have a fix share it
I need my settings to know what kind of phone I have
The SD card don't work! :crying:
SD card issue fixed, since it's been almost a year i got in touch with the friend to whom this phone was donated...
Just redownload and reinstall the rom, no wipes needed. It was a simple fix in the kernel ramdisk.
