UMI C1 - GPS not working in ported ROM

Hi everyone,
few days ago i've started reading about porting ROMs to different devices because i have free time and i'm interested in such stuff. I've successfully ported a CM12 based ROM (resurrection remix, lollipop 5.1.1.) to my MT6582 UMI C1. But the problem that i'm facing is that the GPS isn't functional. It works fine if i use WIFI assisted GPS (battery saving or high accuracy option) but when i use the device's GPS (device only option) it just won't get a fix. I've used GPS test app to check what's happening, and all 'i see' is 9-13 satellites but none is actually being locked onto. Also CM12 doesn't have com.mediatek.lbs.em (location based services) or YGPS.apk. I've tried 4-5 custom ROMs and none of them had those apps. Kitkat did have those and i was able to check the SNR of the GPS reception per satellite.
In previous ROM (kitkat 4.4.2) GPS worked very good, especially when i've installed modified gps.conf into /system/etc
I was able to get a lock within seconds.
SO...
I've ported zImage (a.k.a. kernel?) from stock boot.img to port boot.img, compiled it and done few other file replacements in port ROM to make my ROM working.
I am not a programmer or a coder. All I do is read/copy/paste/ and enjoy what I've done. I don't sell the stuff I do. It's all just for me. But I can (and know how to) use notepad++ to replace lines in ROM's files so if you know a solution please share it with me :fingers-crossed:
So far all stock ROMs for my phone (UMI C1) are missing all files in /system/lib/modules and i've read that i should replace mtk_stp_gps.ko from PORT with one that is located in STOCK. So there has to be another fix, my phone worked fine without it.
Thanks in advance and i hope we'll find a solution.
Got the same problem porting MIUI 7 / 8 to mtk 6582. Have you found a solution?

[SOLVED] Help required with XT1521

Hello there..!!
I just got a XT1521, as a secondary device. Its currently on stock Android 6.0 with baseband M8916_2020629.41.03.21.51R SURNIA_EMEA_DSDS_CUST
I want to make it just like the Pixel. I do know where to get the required files, and don't need any help regarding that.
All I wanna know is :-
1. What's the procedure to unlock bootloader on this device? Unlocked successfully
2. Which recovery should I use? I used Squid2's TWRP v3.0.2-r1
3. Which ROM can be used as a daily driver? (need 7.0+ to get Google Assistant working). My preferences are good battery life (if not extreme) but the performance should be smooth without any lags, unlike the stock M. Also, wifi, OTG support and other features should be working properly.
Flash Seraph08's CM14.1, its totally smooth with wifi, otg and everything working. Also, I've managed to install Google Assistant successfully
4. What's this adoptable storage thing that people are having problem with..?
Didn't faced this problem myself. Maybe because Im not using ext sd card.
5. Should I flash a custom kernel too? If yes, which one and why?
Didn't found any need to do so, stock CM kernel works just fine for me.
Thanks to you for reading through all of this and please be kind enough to answer. :silly:
Heres the link for pixel experience by faserf

2. Twrp recovery by squid2
3.CM14.1 by seraph08 (reubenPCA is the thread operator)
Here's the link-http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e-2015/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-14-1-t3492794
4. I faced no such issue in cm14.1.
5.nope you don't need any kernel, cz the stock one performs excellent.

First of all, thanks bro for the reply.
Have you tried the CypherOS 3.1.3?? That seems good too but is having wifi problem, though in the latest version only.
Everything works fine in the CM14.1 you suggested, right? Even the wifi / tethering, VoLTE and OTG..?
VOLTE is still not available in any ROMs as far as i know, and for everything else works also i had tried cypheros 3.1.3 but i had some issue with that lyk the music would play on loudspeaker even if my headphones were connected(it also showed in the status bar , the headset icon after i connected my headphones) so yes i found cm14.1 better than cypheros in terms of performance

Thanks mate..!! I appreciate your reply. BTW, stock Marshmallow does support VoLTE, but since its my secondary device, I can live without that.
Yeah stock mm firmware supports VOLTE but then my phone would lag a lot on stock, so it's really difficult to stay on stock and that on jio half the calls wouldn't be placed due to interconnectivity issues, so i used stock for hardly 2-3 days.

facing GPS issue in almost every custom rom :( What to do ???

Hi Guys! I am a Kenzo (3+32gb) user and currently using AEX N unofficial by @Pzqqt with stock kernel.
But the issue is I am facing GPS issue on each and every custom rom. I use Gmaps a lot. But now a days it is making me frustrated. Is there any fix for it?
If anybody knows then plz comment here.

crDroid 6.5 (Android 10) for Davinci available

Hello
here is a Android 10 release of crDroid 6.5 from 16.4.20 for download:
https://yadi.sk/d/TD-kDw6UvZbvoQ
I got it running on my Mi 9T, without any issues.
Even the fingerprint sensor works very fine, its my daily driver.
It has lots of customization options
It is official rom?
Can I flash it on indian k20
I dont think its official.
I am not the developer , but I am very happy with crDroid on my Davinci.
I tested very much other roms, every one had issues with something.
Mostly with the fingerprint sensor or the customization options.
With a backup from your previous system its worth a test
Is it smooth ROM like, for instance, Pixel Expirience? Does ANX Camera works in it? Which gapps do you use on this ROM?
does all functions works ok?
I didnt find anything what is not working.
Pixel Exp. is nothing for me, to less options. But yes, it runs smooth.
The battery life is amazing.
I use opengapps nano, because when pixel launcher is installed the orignal laucher has problems.
And the gcam port from urnyx works very fine. Havent anx cam installed yet.
Volte/vowifi working? And stupid question but does it ask for FP when double tapping a notification or just pin?
Used to use crDroid back in my Samy S2 days so interested to see how its come along.

Then who is the developer !!!
I found the download with Google.
Dont know whos the dev.
Crdroid is my absolute favorite rom , hope there will be an official build on the crdroid page
@nikc0069
You can unlock with fingerprint or pattern.
How can I test Volte/vowifi ?
Volte is on per default, Wi-Fi calling can be enabled
Found the ROM on 4pda, the develop name is Razziell of that forum, this is the know bugs written on the post:
ANX camera not supported!
After making calls on the bt headset while playing music, you need to reconnect the headset / headphones, since the audio stops playing (the same applies to the GU)
It is better to write about the problems found in telegram (link in the profile) or in qms.

Installation instructions:
Requires an unlocked bootloader and the presence of TWRP.
Installed on any stock firmware based on 10 android.
!! The firmware contains its own vendor - you don’t need to install others and it is extremely undesirable !!
It is required to install firmware from global 10 version 11.0.4 / 5 or the latest Chinese dev!

Custom roms - what is your impression?

Hello
I'm searching for a custom ROM for the realme xt (with NFC). If you are using any custom ROMs, would you please describe your experience?
I'm looking for:
1. Name of the Rom, and links for installation instrunctions, etc;
2. How stable is your experience;
3. Would you recommend it?
4. Are there more people that can give help and advice (forum, etc) for it?
5. Is it possible to use without GAPS (I prefer to go degoogled)?
6. Is it possible to use with microg (floss implementation of Google services APIs)?
7. Is it possible to use with basic google services (nano Gaps or something like that)?
I'm not really interested in themes, Pixel Apps, pixel themes, and other proprietary Apps. I've been a LineageOS user for a long time, and if it were a stable official version availabe it would be my chjoice. But I'mn open to whateverr ROM works.
Thanks
Anyone? I'm looking for a ROM that is mainly stable enough for daily use and that, hopefully, there will still be developers interested for a while...
