Root [BETA][5.1.1] Dirty Unicorns

spock1104 · Sep 28, 2015

I would like to briefly introduce Dirty Unicorns 5.1.1 for the LG Volt. This is still WIP for now. Based on Bad_MOFO_33's CM12.1 sources.

Issues:
Buttons don't vibrate
Built in camera can't connect
Mic doesn't work?
Need to turn off lift-to-wake -- Repeatedly registers input when there isn't any (vibrating and screen coming on)

Device tree: https://github.com/spock1104/android_device_lge_x5/tree/du_lp-caf

History for those who will be confused by the following 4 posts. May my mistakes help those that follow:
I only got this phone yesterday but figured I'd jump in right away. I threw Bad_MOFO_33's CM12.1 sources at Dirty Unicorns and out popped a ROM, but when I flashed it I got a secure boot error and had to go through the brick recovery. Did I mess something up in the ROM creation or something else? This smells of needing to unlock the bootloader but I only see information from early in the dev process for going through that.

What I had done:
Buy phone, oh look ZV4, how cute
Phone's not updating on it's own, better root
install TWRP 2.8.7.0
flash ZV6 modem and ROM
COMPILING
flash DU... !@#%

... or we're using bump and my ROM didn't get bumped?

You have to add the boot.img to your ROM.

By add the boot.img I assume you mean not the one that the DU build script automatically put in the zip

I'm talking about the one in your $OUT folder. Right click on tbr ROM.zip file and open it with "Archive Manager", and just drag in the bout image. It will automatically add it in for you. Then you should be able to flash it.

Well that was an unfortunate step to have to take. Thank you so much! Guess I'll switch this to an announcement thread after I upload the new version.

No problem. I'll flash it myself when in get the chance if you'd like

spock1104 · Sep 28, 2015

Sure, it looks like the first attempt had a few issues. I welcome suggestions.

This is nice
I had no sound or microphone
Videos would not play
LTE worked nicely
SMS worked with stock app
Little buggy but its definitely got potential

This ROM works pretty good! Yah it's a lil buggy but I had a Dirty Unicorns ROM with my old HTC evo v 4g! I was stoked when I saw this!!! Thank you to everyone who works to make these ROMs possible! Please keep up the good work!

This is pretty good so far! The home button doesn't work though.

@spock1104 in your device tree, frameworks directory shouldnt be there. It needs to be placed in the root of your build directory (DU/frameworks/....) or whatever rom you are building for. Hope the screenshot helps.
Good work BTW. Glad to see more people jumping in....

Yeah I figured that out after compiling. I figured that by putting it in the tree it would act as an override, oops. I'll move it to its own git.

Are you arj1231? I just got an issue posted in github on the same thing.

Edit: hah, read the other thread, yes that's you.

Bad_MOFO_33 · Sep 29, 2015

yep thats me

Do we have a "whats not working" list?

I would love to have this as a daily driver, but i need my phone fully functional for my job. I've used DU on some of my other devices and loved it.

BTW thanks for the development

spock1104 · Oct 17, 2015

Don't use it as a daily driver yet, it won't sleep. When I compile this or cyanogenmod the phone vibrates and wakes about once a minute. Haven't found the cause yet.

I don't get much dev time, so independent log analysis will help get this ready faster.

That would have to do with the kernel, correct?

It could be the OTA [Over-The-Air] update component of the Google Play Services [SystemUpdateService]. Until this component is disabled, it never finishes the check and the device stays awake.
But i don't understand why it would vibrate.

I don't mean a wakelock, I mean the phone reacts like someone pushed a button shortly after the screen is turned off. Screen comes back on to the lock screen. Screen times out,shuts off, then a vibrate and its on again. Yet, I monitored getevent and nothing is showing up.

Why would the vibrate happen though? I had a similar issue with my Acer A500, but that happened in the bootloader. Something to do with "performing unlock bootloader sreps in the wrong order". Never went away, still does it today. But thats another story

spock1104 · Oct 22, 2015

Not to mention that i'm using mofo's source and his ROM doesn't seem to have this issue. Unless maybe there's something odd about my screen.

adamhos1234 · Oct 22, 2015

Did you disable lift to wake in Display Options? If its enabled, my phone does exactly as you described...

spock1104 · Oct 22, 2015

I did not. Is this an issue in mofo's CM and I didn't realize it?
