[ROM][D6603][D5803][unOFFICIAL] CyanogenMod 12.1 [DEPRECATED] - Xperia Z3 Android Development

What is it
It is an under developpement LineageOS 14.1 build from random picked sources official LineageOS sources devices trees, and sonyxperiadev kernel. No modification into the code except to get device working. This rom is not intended to be used as daily usages, it is under development! The bigest part of this dev is done by the sonyxperiadev developers/contributors. The idea is to share this built with the community is to improve this rom (and the mentioned sources) faster to maybe, someday, get official again for our D6603. And maybe real dev can help ​It is an stable version of CyanogenMod 12.1 build from official CyanogenMod trees, and original kernel upgraded to include security patches. No modification into the code except kernel. As CyanogeMod doesn't exist anymore and android L is the only valuable (for now) custom rom for our devices, the idea is to provide upgrade of the original rom without modification. For now only kernel is upgraded, any help to backport AOSP security patch into gerrit is welcome ​

@tomascus made kernel upgrades and I do not have the exact list.
This kernel is selinux upgraded to provide mush more compatibility with FOTAKernel recoveries, and some critical android security bulletins fix are included too.
However CM-12.1 is no more updated so any changes on this way.
So the only changes, compared to the last october official release, are available on the github. The build script is here, the only patch applied is the cm-12.1 defconfig.
I hope someone will help me to backport the security changes into CM to provide a full security updated rom.

Cm 12 is very stable the camera works. I noticed that also NFS No limits runs much better in cm12 I do not know if it was the ROM or some update just know that this incredible now

---

I have been using for a few days and I'm impressed with its performance. I know benchmarks don't mean a lot, but in real usage the feelings are as great as number suggest
Battery life is as good as stock (at least) and there are no real bugs. Only camera quality is worse than stock. I only miss a few options like network speed and others available on ExistenZ or Carbon, but this is going to be my daily driver for a long time!

It was too good to be true xD. I'm having problems with GPS. There is a clear sky but the phone doesn't find any single satellite. I've attached logcat and dmesg. I hope it's not hardware related... http://cloud.tapatalk.com/s/58a8acfdebc71/Log-2017-02-18-09.23.30.csv.txt

Weird. I test gps and with satstat it works fine (indoor, in front of the window, like 3 min to get a fix).
I will take a look at your logs asap.

It's the original quality of lenses without any Sony makeup (drm).
Both indoor and outdoor pictures are bad, but indoor pictures are worse.

Strangely today I tried and gps is now working perfectly without any change. When I tested the other day O waited for several minutes with clear sky and it was 0/0 Today I got around ten fixes and 21 satellites.

Weird, indeed.
Can you please take a logcat? Maybe something obvious like a missing file.
Also do you replaced your back cover?
