Is there a site I can download a zip to test using TWRP? If so, where is it?
Thanks,
Harris
Google "mate 2 cm13 unofficial".
Enjoy it but at your own risk though.

Just to document

Make sure you have the right TWRP. The camera won't work. You may download GApps, which supports Android 6.01, before you decide to install CM13.
MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE YOU DO CLEAN FLASH THE CM13.ZIP.
You may need backup your data with 3rd party app, e.g. Titanium Backup Pro, to be able to restore to CM13. TWRP may not work as you would expect.

It is a kernel issue. There is zip you can flash in twrp to get a semi working camera. Unstable but it does work. I will provide a link from my drive account.

I don't recall anyone reporting that issue. There are numerous versions of cm13 out there. By more than one dev. My experience was better with some of the earlier builds. Feel free to state what app you are using for video and such as it will help. Development has someone slowed because CM may be close to a release themselves. Noone really knows at this point. Some recent changes in CM have caused me to stop trying. Probably another reason the rest have slowed. Feel free to try the camera fix and report back. Again its buggy but does work.

I just flashed the CM 13 Dec. 25 by SHM. The camera app i flashed works well. i took like 10 photos and the all saved. I think i will uninstall the camera app the came with the rom. The video issue normally happens with facebook videos, youtube videos, instagram videos and snapchat videos but it seems to be working now. The snapchat camera does work but it takes about 45 seconds for it to come up after switching between front and rear camera and freezes often. With the instagram camera, it worked the first time i opened the app but wont work after. After about 5 minutes of messing with everything, Every app including the one i flashed says that they cannot connect to the camera and that i should restart the device. hope this helps

Yep. Reboot solves it until it hangs again. It has been tested for a month or so now. Some had better results than others. The camera it flashes works decently. Its just a temp fix into kernel is patched.
Which dev do you think has the best build? and which build is it?
For those wondering about using large SD Cards with MM, if the Mate will read and write to it, it should work fine. I am using this card http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Ultra-200GB-Micro-SDSDQUAN-200G-G4A/dp/B00V62XBQQ and it seems to be working just fine so far. Just got it and moved my stuff over to it today. Its a 200GB card but when formatted by the phone it shows as 183GB which is more than enough for me. I got it when they were running a special on them for $80. Right now they have gone up some as of 12/29 at 11:06 pm the card is selling for $109 with free shipping. For those that want to transfer a lot of music and videos to your phone this might be the card for you.

There are only two developers that I Have found that are make MM ROMS for the Mate two and if you search for them on AFH you can find them. They are Dargu and SHM. I use the builds that Dargu makes because they seem to be updated more Regularly, but you might like the builds made by SHM. I would suggest trying each one and seeing which one you like best and sticking with it or just flash whichever one is the newest at the time. Its basically a personal choice that each person has to make.

Best to stick with root built into the ROM for now.
THANKS!
Sure appreciate the work on a MM rom. 10 years ago, I would have been right in the thick of it, flashing every
new one that came along, but, anymore these things are "just a phone" for me. I've been lucky with mine.
4.3 was stable, 5.1 is stable. The only issue I've had, is that on reboot, the launcher (nova) won't stick, but,
I don't turn it off or reboot but once in a blue moon.
I doubt if we'll see an official MM for the Mate2, but if a really stable one comes along, who knows, I might
give it a try. The camera MUST work for me, since I use it pretty much daily (work images for engineers).
Hi guys, I would like to know what are the stables cm roms to this device, I tried 2 and I had same bugs. Thank you in advance

For me the most stable and functional CM ROM is the 'CM13 LeMaX 2 TeaMSpaiN RevolutioN' ROM. I've been using it since Xmas day with zero issues so far. There's also the 'Unofficial LineageOS' (CM14.1) ROM in mid development. I'm just about to try it. According to the OP everything works except for IR and the camera. No camera is a big problem, so I'm on the TeaMSpaiN ROM until they (hopefully) sort it. There's the 'CM13 MaX2 S19 UmBreLLaTeaM SpaiNTeaM' ROM. Slow motion issues and no IR. There was also one other CM13 I saw in the ROMS section. It was unnamed. I never checked it out.
The TeaMSpaiN RevolutioN ROM is likely the best atm. It benched just over 144k in AnTuTu, and it's stable. Not one FC for me so far. I haven't got into Xposed with it yet or tried tons of apps, so I'm sure there's some bugs. For general use though, I see no point switching unless they get the camera working in the 7.1.1 build. Hope that helps.

Just to let you know, the LinageOS build did not work for me last night. It sounds like you're comfortable flashing, so it shouldn't be a problem for you, but just a heads up in case it's your daily use device and you need it to work. It looks like cr3p is actively working on it though, so I do hope to see it become a solid platform.

I was a user of official mokee ROM from ffboy, the development now is stopped, it has a bug that is a no go for me, when Bluetooth is enabled the wifi stop working. I prefer a build with precompiled kernel from Teamspain or Umbrella, they are more stable.
That bug was there from the start, but it's true there is no development for our device

When I posted this I had done a full wipe of data and cache and flashed the LineageOS Unofficial clean. The result was about 2 minutes of boot screen followed by a solid black screen. When pressing buttons I could get a "Setup Wizard isn't responding", with options to wait or close. Either option resulted in black screen. I left the phone on during the day today, and several hours later I checked it and got the setup screen! I finished setup and it is now working. :good:

Mokee is it's own OS. Not CM. If you're talking about the best ROM out there, I have no idea. I'm not completely new here (I try and search for answers, so almost never post), but I haven't been here for ages. Especially here in the Le Max 2 forum. I didn't hate EUI. There were a couple of things I liked, but CM13, stable and benching over 144k. I'll take it. For now anyway. There's a fair bit of fighting in the 7.1.1 ROM thread, so who knows if they'll work it out. They owe us nothing though, so we wait.
The question was "what is the best CM based rom?"
Mokee is CM based. Nevermind, I'll head to the lineage thread to see the fighting going on there ?
Edit: no fighting, very peaceful out there ?

My bad. Yeah it did seem to settle down. ffboy left officially so there wasn't really any point going on. A little back some guy claimed to have, as one member put it - 'the cure for cancer, but couldn't tell us until he'd spoken to his priest'.... heh. Something about him or a friend working with Qualcomm processors, but signed an NDA. Sounded a bit off. Who knows. I'm using Dual Boot Patcher to see what's out there. Great tool. Can try (edit) LineageOS, and quick switch to CM13 if I need the camera (unless it's a fast UFO sighting). Or whatever ROM you like. The only limit is storage.
Yup, ffboy was a very capable dev. He was able to port CM, MIUI and H2OS in very short time and was working on cm14 aswell.. well, let's wait and see

Cool. I'll have to get in to Xposed. The fingerprint feels like a memory thing to me. If you leave the phone for a while the first reads is slow, but straight after it's fast. Like the print images aren't cached. Doesn't bother me. It is a minus, but some reviewers are so spoilt for choice they make it a bigger deal than it is.
I'm am running the latest Mokee release 08-01-2017 with no issues on the FP and with only 1 print registered.

I still haven't tried the Mokee ROM. Something about a bot updating it worries me . If you think it's good, no harm in trying.
Edit : The FP speed in TS13 is confusing. Kinda random. Just used it now to start installing Mokee and it's near instant. Hadn't used the phone for hours. Go figure. The only constant is that it's always quicker after the first time.

Maybe thats because your system language is set to english? I read somewhere if you switch to english ( I have absolutely no idea why) it would work better. I tried, deleted all FP then switched to english, registered new FP and switched back to my language and it "seems faster".
Lost track of that ir patch (install via recovery) though.
Just tried Mokee. Don't really see anything special compared to CM, and multiple benchmarks put it a little under the revolution ROM. Also, it wont even pick up 3G on one of my sims, let alone LTE. Anyone know what the differentiator is between ROMS? I don't really like EUI, but it instantly finds LTE. The revolution ROM is kinda stubborn. It see's the 4G provider, but fails to register if I try immediately. I've worked out if I just wait a few minutes before choosing it registration works. The Lineage ROM picks up LTE fine like EUI.
Side note, for those who wanna try out dual/multiple OS. Turns out ROMS don't run slow on the other slots using Dual Boot Patcher. I had one of the bugged (slow) Lineage releases. I have 4 other ROMS installed atm. All work as expected and run at full speed. It's awesome and easy. Patch, flash, setup ROM. Then to switch, use the app or the DualBootUtilities zip within recovery. Reboot, different OS. No more 'which one do I pick?'.

You can never get full functionality of LG Stock ROM on any custom ROMs.
Even though I have not flashed LOS, I can tell you few things that may not work.
1. Wide Camera
2. IR Blaster
3. Most Probably any friends modules if you own them.
I'm interested in knowing too before I try it. As long it's stable with all cameras working, I'd be fine.

Well, I've been on los for a while now..
-As far as I know NFC is not working (on not using it so no idea, but it seems to drain the battery an not work properly)
-BT works for eg headphones but not for headsets
Charging is still an issue. It is faster now but still not even close to fast charging. An on a 3rd party charter or is ridiculously slow
-the wide angle camera is working but you have to toggle between the cameras to get to it. The auto focus might be a problem, but it is mostly solved I think.
-playing music is sometimes a drag, and can be laggy
-FM radio is non existing, not supported, will probably never be...
Other issues have been solved, other pop up, but since there are weekly updates, that's what it is.
-be careful, root has to be installed separately and if you don't do so, immediately after installing the ROM, you will most likely end up in the famous Twrp bootloop..
Before installing it I'd read at least the last 20 pages in the forum, these should give you an idea... Or go to the fulmics ROM. It is stock based so everything should be working. To my knowledge all the LOS based ROMs share the same issues.
Hello everyone,
I have an issue with my camera as it doesn't focus after 25cm. Before I ask for your help I would like to mention that I used many camera apps and I have change many roms including Miui 9, Oreo 8.1, lineage[/B][/B] etc. At last I ask for gearbest's help (where I buy my le max 2 x829) if there is anything I can do in order to fix it. The only answer I receive is that my device doesn't support focus function and that is why all photos are blurry take 300 points. When I buy it thought the camera worked fine! Please help me , camera was the reason why I bought this device in first place.

First, always make a search before post, your problem is common on this device, and the dev of the rom you are using can provide a kernel with focus fix, and its ok.
Any rom you will install first take a search on the thread and see if have a focus fix or not for camera.
Second, provide what rom you are using now! so we can help you.
I use pixel experience x2 8.1 official. I know there are many post about it the problem is that I have use almost every (even Chinese) roms. Right now I am downloading rr- v6.0.0

Ask the dev of the rom you are dwnloading for a kernel with focus fix for you, or you still have the focus problem.
I have download the rr v6.0.0 , as you may have already seen there is a focus fix kernal to download there provided by them I did the same installation 2 times once yesterday and once today after I completely format my phone I start from flash nothing happen I still have the same problem. I start with a question as some may had the same problem and found that focus fix kernal and that rom.

Try opening the camera app and repeatedly tap on the glass of the camera on the back. It's probably stuck or something.

If flashing the focus fix kernel for the you are using, maybe going back to EUI make it work again?
If not, than you have a hardware problem.

about the camera i dont have any issue or focus issue on any rom.
Yep I have exactly the same focus issue as OP, was wondering if going back to stock EUI would help bring the camera back to life.
Tested on 19s EUI Indian ROM and on 26s Chinese EUI ROM and It still doesn't work, I think this is a hardware problem caused by a software, I guess we're stick with this camera till the end.

Stupid answer actually. Try to flash stock eui, if still broken, you should ask for refund.
The problem is that hardware may vary, some people have problems, some other don't
recently I also have same focus and blur issue with my Le Eco max 2

but again after very next day I found same issue and its not working in normal body temp
and this issue is only with rear camera and not with front camera
please help me for focus and blur issue with my rear camera
Hi,
I think it's time to say that we have to stop thinking that this is due to the rom ... I had two leeco max 280 & 281 with the original roms ... the focus is break down on both after a few months. It is a material problem. I bought and change the cameras (V1611) by V1620 & v1621 and since it is perfectly ok.
Regards
Heyyo, for focus issues? X2's do have weak camera actuators. My x2 was fine for the longest time, but I'm clumsy and have dropped it a few times and now I do require focus fix to be enabled.
Most ROMs these days have a toggle found in the settings btw. For LineageOS? It would be found under Settings > System > Advanced > LeEco Settings.
I have seen before that some users report attaching a coin magnet beside the camera, I think below the flash module can help with getting the camera to focus again... Albeit at the loss of OIS since the camera won't be able to balance... So at that point? You are better off ordering a new camera module and replacing it. The fingerprint sensor replacement guide for x2 is amazing here on XDA and the camera sensor is just beside the fingerprint sensor so that guide works good for this purpose too.

I'm not enough of an expert to tell you what causes this problem, but I know many ROMs contain the fix for it already, and some offer an additional download for the focus fix if it's needed. So just have a look through the ROM threads, I know one ROM has a download with a focus fix kernel to download as well, I'm not for a second saying that kernel would work on your ROM, but if you've got TWRP and a full backup and stuff, if you can't find out if it will work with your ROM, then flashing it anyway won't do any lasting harm I don't think, you'd just have to restore your backup, but don't hold me to that lol.
Heyyo, are you using official EUI ROM 19s or a different one?
If official? Hmm that's really not good as it means your camera actuator is defective... Some people say shaking the phone helps.. others say reverting to an ancient version of EUI ROM like 14s and using camera there and then going to EUI ROM 28s... But no idea if it would help you. If not? It's definitely hardware and would require replacing the camera module.
Going back to stock then settling for 20s fixed the camera for me.
Camera was working fine with Cuoco92 23s then suddenly stopped focusing.
Upgrade to 28s did not work.
Factory reset - flash to Cuoco92 14s (camera still not focus)
Then flash to Cuoco92 28s - camera works now.
Dont know why but this info might helps someone.
Camera is poor and barely supported, this is currently biggest disadvantage. As hardware is relatively poor, camera is very easy to scratch, software support is poor too, for example panorama will be always out of focus, movies have crazy focus jumping, under or over exposed in case when light conditions change during filming, also pictures are always relatively poor quality.
Just use other phone to make photo, if you can't live with that, x2 is not for you. I'm lucky I am not getting "focus issue" mentioned, but all other issues as I said makes camera rather poor.

yep, you are absolutely right.
And I guess I spoke too soon about the "camera focus fix". The issue reappears after two days. Never quite understand how it could be working one day and not the next.

Does the same apply to Lineage 15.1?
This happened to me on a resurrection remix nougat ROM randomly one day after working flawlessly for several months. Updated to AospExtended and then tried flashing a fix, but issue was still not solved. Personally this problem doesn't make the phone unusable, but it is annoying when I want to take an occasional picture of a nice car or a moment in life.
