Root CM12.1 Unofficial Beta

How did you install xposed because it either buts me stuck into a bootloop or it just doesn't install
I did a fresh install of ROM,
flashed cm12 and universal minimal gapps zip together
booted up
Rebooted to recovery
Installed xposed 5.1 zip
Rebooted
Installed xposed apk
Tested with module and reboot from xposed framework tab (not from power button)
All worked fine until in shut off and tried to reboot and was a bootloop since
(Then I did I restore)

It was working fine then while I was using it it shut rebooted and was like that (trying to reboot) the whole last night.
BTW the module that gives back the mute/silent mode from previous versions of android does not work when I pushed any volume button after enabling that module it would reboot (it was as if I tured the volume buttons into reboot buttons)

Heres a list of Modules that work for Android 5.1 or (CM12.1) http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/discussion-xposed-modules-5-1-lolipop-t3075257

I see, for me it don't seem to work , I just have app process but the bridgexposed.jar or something like that has a dash , and in red it say something about api level 22




Never mind I figure how to fix it

I had the exact same problems with signal and LTE. What I did was flash the APN fix listed on the first post and then selected an APN in the rom's built in APN settings. I had to switch back and forth with the APN's I could choose from once or twice to get LTE to work, but once I got it working it's been great. Signal drops got a lot better too. It's not perfect, but it only drops every now and then as opposed to dropping continuously.

Above I posted asking if signal issues might be affected by having the zv5 radio flashed/not flashed prior to flashing the rom. Did you have the radio flashed?
On the 3/16 build I flashed the APN fix and couldn't get LTE, so I reverted back to my stock rooted rom. LTE worked on the stock rom, so I figured I would backup its APN settings. A few days ago I performed a clean install of the 04/09 rom and used the APN configuration from my stock rom. It began with cinet.spcs if I remember correctly. To fix the signal drop I just selected 3G from the Preferred network type dialog. I read somewhere that Sprint's network, which would include Boost and Virgin Mobile, doesn't play well with CM 12 and LTE.

For those with the deep sleep problem again, open settings, goto performance and processor, you want to change your minimum frequency above the default, about 384MHz. That's how I fixed my device.
My device won't stay on 384 it keeps switching itself to 300 or 192 how can I keep it on 384?

Gesture typing is not working how can this be fixed? (I like android keyboard better than Google keyboard)

Just did a clean wipe(everything but externalSD) and Installed CM 12.1, Gapps mini and APN fix, Works near perfectly now. Only problem is that the minimum CPU keeps switching back to default, honestly you should get rid of the 192 and 300 CPU steppings, 384 isn't that much of a drain with a 3Ah battery. I think stock used 300 minimum anyways.
Also I finally got to installing NicoNico, seems like it refuses to load the video(but sound does work) Bummer, I guess I'll have to use the HTML5 video player.

Update : Fixed Rear Camera & PTP connection
Link in bottom of OP.
The CM11 DeCAF rom by @whoshotjr2006 is the only ROM that works with front and rear camera on my phone is there a way to make a camera-libs flashable zip from this rom? I am using lg volt boost.
I am using that as my daily ROM but a I don't get sounds for text or calls lol

Is it just me, or is there a limit to the number of playlists this ROM can support? I've created 10 playlists using CMs new music player (which is freaking GORGEOUS and works better than anything I've ever used before), but if I try to create anymore playlists, it crashes. I tried downloading Apollo and creating more playlists using that, but that too results in a force close. Any one else got this, or is it just me? And is there a workaround? Gotta have my tunes :/

Make sure your recovery supports lollipop there is a twrp one in the beginning of the furom



Edit: post twrp lollipop link
http://androidforums.com/threads/recovery-twrp-2-8-5-0-lollipop.902943/


That was it. i'm now in and on. I now have done the apn flash and nope no lte ( yes i do know that this is a possible issue and i'm ok with it ... for now). front and rear cameras work.


Second part (lte),
how can i help. i have a daily driver with latest rom. i "don't think" i have lte. what info can i provide, what log information can i give?

third part (make the stupid voicemail quit buzzing)
i can't remember if there is a thread in here about making it stop (i'll re-read) if there wasn't a resolution, again, how can i help?

ADB Minimal + bugreport = fairly comprehensive. The 'results.txt' mentioned in the second link would provide a broad spectrum of what's going on...


... All except a full kmsg! Hey OP, how about jumping up LOG_BUF_SHIFT to 19 or 21? It's about impossible to get a full dmesg with only 17. Considering we're still living in Bugsville, more logging baked would be nice.

Updated LOG _BUF_SHIFT to 21

Have you seen this commit? It's solved that problem LG G2 and Gproj-based devices. That LgeLteRIL looks like it would be a neat replacement for the LgeX5RIL. (My Volt has no cell service so I'm not sure I can test, but it drops into the build like whoa.)

Included this commit in new build.
Havent tested service ran out yesterday, but my gps locks a little faster

Also added a missing camera lib, not sure if thats the problem as my camera works

Latest build 4/16/2015 : removed due to breaking service
nfc and adb not working, i am sure other things

Got nowhere trying to get the adb to work but kinda irrelevant at this point. Getting random reboots, wifi dropping and not reconnecting without toggling airplane mode, no LTE, no video playback on snapchat, and random screen freezes.
Not quite daily driver material yet.
I've been having issues with Wifi/Radio too, ever sense I've updated tho I've had zero reboots/Deep sleep problems which is a HUGE blessing over the old build I had(CM12 from mid last month)

Which camera lib is this? Can we pull it from this new build and use it on previous builds? I'm on a VM Volt running the 03/24 build and my rear camera doesn't work, but I rely on Xposed a lot so I'm not sure if I'm ready to upgrade to CM12.1 :/

It seems like this build broke service, at least for me. Tried both a dirty flash over the last build and a clean flash, and it didn't work in either, so I went back to the 4/09 build for now. (I have one of the working cameras, so no idea if your changes fixed anything as far as that goes, although video still didn't work with the stock app.)
