***BETA

***Whats working?
  • Network Data
  • Audio **Enable Developer settings and change to using Awesomeplayer(depreciated)
  • Video
  • Proximity Sensor
  • WiFi
***What's not working?
  • Camera
  • Acceleration Sensor ** Code 9, Code 7 in dmesg
  • MTP

***NOTE UPDATED***
This rom is now considered BETA so install it at your own risk. While not everything is working the basic is considered workable. I've also tested out the calling and for some reason when you initiate the hangup well the dialer seems to lag out a bit and the call never ended till the other party ends it. Camera is still not working but I'm sure eventually it will be figured out here.

Brought to my attention that incoming calls are not working and 5GHz band for the wifi isn't working either it's been noted.


***ROM DOWNLOAD***
--> HERE <-- *Please note that this download is basically a BETA and still being worked on.

***AUDIO_WORKAROUND***
Awesomeplayer handles local music files and some streaming as for the new Nuplayer handles a lot of the new http streaming solutions.
  1. Enable Developer Settings
  2. Switch on Awesomeplayer(depreciated)

***KEYMASTER_FIX***

Okay you don't need my keymaster fix zip the ROM already has those keys.

Files are found while running the ROM in the directory
/firmware/image
Keymaste.b00
Keymaste.b01
Keymaste.b02
Keymaste.b03
Keymaste.mdt​

Copy those files into the directory

/system/vendor/firmware/keymaster

Remove the existing keymaster* files and rename the copied files and change their ownership and permissions

Root
Root

0644

Then reboot

***SOURCES***
--> GITHUB <--
*Sources will be pushed appropriately right now they do not have the changes from a local server.

***UPDATES***
  • 2015/12/10 - MODEM MODEM MODEM out of date...
  • RECENT --> LOGCAT <--
  • 2015/12/11 - MODEM updated ANK3 though downloaded version latest doesn't reflect the same. Seems the missing files showed up in the new firmware thanks to @KAsp3rd for pointing out. Things looking like paths for audio sources shouldn't be 0 quoting kasp3rd "Physical path."
  • 2015/12/26 - Fixed Wifi getting closer Audio and Camera left to attack then I will switch gears and call this a BETA project.
  • 2016/01/01 - Audio sources were sorted out and corrected. Not completely but its workable. Happy New Years guys.

Honestly I'm just trying to get this rom functional as there is no audio not sure what it is so I'm compiling qcom legacy for audio stuff. I haven't ran the rom very long to see the battery usage but it is pretty reactive to navigating around. Feels fluid is what I'm saying. But as of right now I'm working on the audio deal with a little bit of direction from someone helping point the obvious out that I'm missing.

Doubt it'll be done before Christmas though I'm working on stuff if someone knows about media_paths.xml I seem to be having trouble getting the audio to work
Dude you're doing an excellent job and I can't wait to c cm12.1 working flawlessly or even close on this phone. Ik there was another guy working on cm12.1 as well but gave up on getting the wifi to work correctly, i even flashed it for myself and it was really fast just like the cm11 rom, getting this rom to work for this phone would be a huge blessing for me lol, had the LG Leon but hard bricked it on accident, miss that stable cm12.1 it had, got this phone as a replacement, i like the touchwiz rom and cm11 but i still really miss cm12.1, had all the themes lmao:p

Yeah it was free but my insurance spokesperson said they didin't have the Leon in stock anymore so they gave me a different phone instead, I asked them about repairing it but i couldn't get a straight answer, it's ok tho, i was in situation where i could've gotten a new one if they had it in stock instead of repairs, but they gave me a new different phone, I'm still happy to have it. Hopefully I can help in my own way with this rom and helping ur friend out with that is very nice, ik what its like having to work on cars so I could only imagine it took some patience, take ya time man and then when u want get back to the rom, do what u do, no worries on my end.

Well I'm lost about my build telling me that the CameraWrapper.cpp has a whole bunch of undeclared items that are found in the CameraParametersExtra.h document but it's still throwing me an error.
Hmm I'll look in to this by checking with other devs to c if they know how to fix this issue, ik one might, he went thru camera problems too

OK, I've hit up some devs about this and am waiting to c what they say, also couldn't u just have taken another cm12.1 build for this model and extracted out anything that u needed for ur build to fix the problem? Or is that illegal?
I could be wrong, but I thinks it's more of a device-specific problem, needing certain properties and codes from that phone and kernel.

Ahh so even tho the other build was finished for this phone (say for example the one that works fine with the exception of wifi not working), he couldn't just use that as his.. like base and extract the camera and audio stuff to replace anything in his build? Or would it be better to just fix the wifi on that abandoned one? Idk how any of that works but just best of luck Adknight87, the people with this phone who support u, and are willing to help will do are best to help this rom be defined as stable
