G3 Official Cyanogen mod 12? - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

is the g3 being supported by the cyanogenmod 12 official release on the first of december?

Its looking more YES - than NO.
Its on the list to be supported, but with whats happened in the DEV community the last few days i dont know anymore, i hope it still does.

Official support or not with the great devs we have here we already have a stable version of cm12 that is ok for daily drive

What so special comes with the "official" tag?

I hope offical is ASAP!
nightly update,more stable, less bug

The Rom we have is already pretty awesome, but there are some bugs left.. The major killer for me is the camera.. I need a reliable good working camera.. And right now there is no solution on the horizon.

The only bug i have found with the camera is the fc i get when i press the stop button on a video recording other than that it is working flawlessly

For starters an official rom would actually contain cm features...., also i could watch videos iv recorded, mayne also take videos if thats not too much to ask, i legit dont understand how so many of you people complain about phones like ' the signals terrible, the phone lags,' tgen buy a phone yhats decent and all you guys do is put on a rom which wont even let you take a video!?!?!? Am i missing something,the cm12 build we have now is okay but is no where near a daily driver and doesnt contaim any cm features or stability

Well if you want everything build it yourself and see how much work goes into making everything work. Only thing official will get are NIGHTLIES which will likely contain as many bugs as what their is currently. Fresh builds never have all the features as the previous ones. Every forum I've seen on here for the g3 that has cm11 or 12 are all pretty much stable enough to be daily.
Also I must as well ask why does everybody care about OFFICIAL?

legitness
Offical is less likely to have bugs and will have cm new festures

Officials can be used as "base" for people who want to cook their own AOSP based stuff.

You can use unofficial for a base unofficial will still have cm features its just not official cm12 has just started. I suggest waiting

Official or not, it is still CM...
I personally prefer CM based rom with some cherry picks from independent devs...
They are way better....
Like others say, what we get in official cm are just nightlies...

at+t
Even atandt varient has it, no one uses atandt , is it possible to port it??!?!?!

If you look at the CM website you will see that the D850 is now in the device list

[ROM][14-02-13][Flinny] Andromadus - AOSP4.2.2[9]

Andromadus - Test Builds
To start with here you will find test versions of ROMs built by me from the Andromadus github repo http://github.com/Andromadus, think of them along the same concept as nightly builds just not every night These are development ROM's, if you want to run bleeding edge development ROM's and at least know how to use adb and logcat then you might find something of interest here. If you require something that works 100% of the time all of the time then this might not be for you. That said you can always give it a try and if it doesn't work restore your previous nandroid backup!
What IS Andromadus?
Initially it was a group of people who got together to make ICS work on the HTC Desire Z because nobody else seemed to want to support devices with physical hardware keyboards/trackpads. Whilst the idea stays the same It has grown slightly to support some other hardware and some of the work we have done is now used in many other devices. Andromadus builds of CM10 or CM10.1 are basically CM sources with a few additional tweaks or additions to support our phones.
1. New versions will be added as and when I feel there are enough changes to warrant one, don’t ask when the next version is coming.
2. If we decide to release a "Stable" version of these roms they will be published in another Andromadus thread.
Direct all your queries with release versions to that thread and in the same vain do not discuss these releases anywhere but here.
3. I will do as best I can to answer questions but if you don't get an answer from me I'm sure somebody else will be along to help. Help each other and I have more time to spend fixing things!
4. Don't ask for what's changed since the previous version, have a look at the recent submits on the Andromadus github if you want to know or wait for the mini changelogs when I post a new release.
5. If there is something in particular to test it'll be mentioned!
6. As always if you didn't wipe between installations then at least verify that the problem exists on a clean install before posting here. Nandroid/superwipe/install/check at the end of the day you can always restore your nandroid if the problem is reproducible on a clean installation. If you can't be bothered to try this then I really can't be bothered to try to help you :>
7. All that said ensure you make a nandroid/backup before hand. I take no responsibility for what you do to your phone with these ROM.
8. Whilst I can't stop you I would rather these builds were not used as a base for any ROM/MOD/ETC. The source is all available if you want to do your own builds with which you can do whatever you like.
9. Tell us what works/what's worse/what's better but don't ***** when something breaks or isn't fixed yet, report it and move on.
10. Sometimes people forget that we do this for fun, for ourselves, and sometimes your super important issue is way down on our personal list of things to be fixed.
If you ignore any of the above you will in turn be ignored.
Now that's all out of the way as always have fun
As usual you need to flash the ROM then GAPPS.
Checkout http://andromadus.flinny.org for links/files/changelog's
This a team/community effort, I'll not list everyone who has helped along the way here that list is in the beta thread but I will say thanks to all of them again and obviously anyone that has been missed.

Hi Flinny, great job on the AOSP builds they are running perfect. I only had one satback sins build 4. Suddenly my gallery stopt working and dropbox to. Because of the gallery problem my camera won't boot either. I flashed build 5 but I had the same problem. Build 4 was flashed with a full wipe and build 5 was flashed as update that the reason of course why the problem didn't left but sometimes it helps Does this sound familiar? Greetz Munky
I tested it last evening but have many FC message about "aosp keyboard" even with the physical keyboard
I wiped all but still the same message going back to cm10.1
Ok I'm a little rusty on the details at the moment but: AOSP means that you want it to get as close as stock experience as you can get right? (I'm really looking for a G-lite thing but then with ICS/Jelly Bean, sort of Nexus feel but then for our Desire Z)
What's everyone's opinion on these AOSP builds? To me they seem more stable and faster than CM. I kinda miss CM a little though, but not the lag.
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda app-developers app
I know that this is a dumb question and the answer is probably within the other thread, but... Ah heck, now it's just that I'm too lazy to look for the solution LOL...
But I installed AOSP 4.2 v6 last night and so far I'm not experiencing any major problems (except for FCing when I edit a picture and a bit of confusion adjusting to some new features LOL)... But when is this project going to be merged with CM? There are LOTS of creature comforts (e.g. silence during night hours, T9-style contact search, etc.) that I'm used to with the CM-optimized version that I kinda miss and only noticed that it was gone when I flashed it (I was under the impression that those features were all standard?)
Sorry to pester and thanks in advance.

Could you add init.d support to the rom or fix it? I see that there is a placeholder for scripts and there is one script, but it's not executed on boot (with 755 permissions).

This is absolutely the smoothest 4.0+ ROM I have ever used. Might switch to CM10.1 though for more features.

Oh jeez... Either I had a total brain fart and completely missed the link or it got posted anywhere from the time I posted it to the catching up of 14+ hours of sleep (I only slept 7 hours across 3 days LOL), but I guess CM10.1 is already posted. I'll download it and see what's up. Thanks for not flaming me guys. I would've gotten the N4 but I'm not a big fan of LG (had countless bad hardware experiences) and my phone is somewhat last on my "to upgrade list", so thanks for everybody's help and keep up the good work!

That is strange. Which recovery are you using? Don't use clockworkmod as they're always full of glitches and bugs. Don't use ROM Manager to flash ROMs either as they as well have glitches. I recommend doing everything in recovery. If you do have clockworkmod I recommend flashing 4ext as it has more features and can make your phone a little faster

Ok I just went ahead and installed it. This is exactly what I need for a ROM on my Desire Z! Thanks Flinny, and keep up the good work!
Now my experience with this ROM:
- I just fly trough my home screens and menu's, it runs fluently!
- When at stock speeds (so 1Ghz) I sometime run into problems booting up the settings. I just hangs there for 4+ seconds untill it actually shows the settings. Setting clockspeeds to 1,8Ghz fixes this most of the times, but it's something you might want to look into (Or don't, it's your ROM)
- The above also happens with some apps.
I don't run swap or any other optimization, so I don't know if it's my problem or a ROM problem, but if you want me to do some more testing just tell me what I need to do
Boot Loop
Thanks for the work, this is a great ROM, just thought I would pitch my issue I had.
Im currently testing an app and set the device to use 2g only as I wanted so see how quickly it pulled in my data on a slower connection. If you leave it in 2g mode and reboot it appears to get stuck in a boot loop.
Hope this is helpful.
Cheers

I doubt that has anything to do with the "2g" setting since the radio doesn't come on until after it is booted up. Maybe that application you're testing screwed something up?

The app is fine, I have been building it for a few weeks and runds fine on a nexus one, and a sapphire. I have tried flashing the 4.2.1 AOSP build and the CM10 build and exactly the same is happening.

Do you think you could get a log of the reboot? Might help in figuring out why it is rebooting like that.

[ROM][WIP] [4.4] CyanogenMod 11.0 (KRT16S) for NS4G (updated 12/06/13)

Kinda redundant since adityaxavier just put his build up, but here's what I built last night. I can't test it since I'm still not home (I built over SSH), but I think I fixed some if not all of the problems it was having. If I end up getting working builds as good as adityaxavier's, maybe I'll turn this into an unofficial nightly thread. I'm really hoping crespo4g can be included in CM's official nightlies again!
Alpha 2
This is the first build that I've gotten to boot, so I figured I'd post it here.
It's very very buggy as of yet (like FCs everywhere). I'm working on resolving the issues, but it's source built (not a port) and it boots.
So people might want to mess around with it. Obviously I take no responsibility if you brick your devices.
Download
Code:
Hey all,
This is in the works, if it ends up building and booting out of the box, we'll have working CM11 KitKat for our Nexus S 4G devices.
I'm not really a dev, mainly a hacker/tweaker/modder, but we'll see how this goes.
Here's my GitHub repo, I forked CM's 10.2 crespo4g sources and made some minor changes to update to the CM11 tree.
[url]https://github.com/jc4gavejc/android_device_samsung_crespo4g/tree/cm-11.0[/url]
Check back for goodies soon!
EDIT (10:51PM PST) I made a dumb, dumb, dumb mistake. I was extracting proprietary blobs from a CM10.2 build I had installed on my phone, and all the WiMAX blobs were missing from the manifest.
Just flashed back to stock and retried the process. All blobs synced without a problem. Rookie mistake. Building yet again. Hopeful this time it will work.
NOTE: This does not mean we'll have working WiMAX yet. I anticipate it'll still be broken from 10.2... sorry =[

I think having the blobs from 4.1 did it. Everything is zipped and ready to flash. I'm gonna test it (have to reflash CWM since I went back to stock) and if it works I'll upload it for people to test.
This is awesome to see. My wife has a NS4G that I think would have new life breathed into it with 4.4. She's on 4.2 right now and, unless it's OC'd by a good amount, it chokes on everything.

I don't know if I'd count on 4.4 being a lifeline to speed. 4.2 runs significantly better than 4.4 on my Nexus One.
That said, I'd limit concurrent processes in your developer settings menu regardless.
I think there's problems with yesterdays CM tree, the ROM I built had so many FCs it was unusable on the crespo4g, so I built for the mako (Nexus 4) from the exact same sources and had the same issues (which I've never had before building CM for the mako).
Trying a build from pure AOSP right now. Will keep you guys posted. PM me if you want the buggy ROM, otherwise I'll toss it.

I just want to thank you for your effort regardless of how far you get! I was begining to think the cerspo4g development was dead!
I was thinking about trying to get the crespo CM11 to boot on our devices but I know NOTHING about cooking roms. I just couldn't find the time (too many other projects renovating a FG camper, minecraft server, fixing the car, work, family etc..)
Sooo... THANK YOU! :good:
i'm in to test any build for crespo4g... i won't be able to test data/cell b/c i use this device for listening to music only... would be great to have this on my NS4G though... was looking into making it myself but idk how to do it either lol
Thanks for working on this. I am only using the NS4G as a WiFi device for now, but would love to play around with anything 4.4

I'll post it here when I get a working build, right now I'm trying to merge some of cn.fyodor's optimizations from the original Nexus S build. It might end up being pure AOSP as opposed to CM, depends on what I can get to build without errors or other post-build problems. I don't have a ton of time to work on it over the next couple days, but I'll try to do what I can.

Thanks... Enjoy some turkey today if that's your thing... Personally, I've been using stock for a few months on my N4 and now on my N5 I only rooted to remove some apps and install a custom kernel... I prefer stock to mods now... Mainly because I don't have time to keep up with updating so often... So a stock 4.4 ROM on my NS4G will work for me... I already have the GEL and that runs great for me but I'm still missing the complete 4.4 on it that's why I wanted to flash it lol

+1 for full stock
I prefer full stock myself. Google's been giving such sweet goodness lately, it's really the best way to go. Plus if anyone wants to they can customize to their heart's content. I'm very hopefull you'll get this working fully - as stock.
There's really no such thing as stock when it comes to devices outside of Google's support line. Technically if you want stock its a 4.1.1 factory image from Google. AOSP is close to stock but doesn't include any proprietary Google apps by default. You can remove/add any packages you want via adb and create a "stock" ROM, but you can do that coming from any base be it AOSP, CM, or whatever. Personally, I prefer CyanogenMod. That's why I'm working on getting this build working.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk
by "stock" i mean no extra features added...
Right, same here... just not having custom anything - adding gapps is fine, but not custom kernels, themes, etc.
First build up. It's very broken. beware.
I'm just glad you're still working on it, I thought you had given up on 4.4 for the nexus s 4g

Nothing except gapps. I'd be impressed if you could get very far with this build though. I made some changes to my source tree, I'll get a new build up tomorrow morning.
I'll give it a go and see what happens on mine. Just got this nexus s 4g from my sister, she had it on Sprint, while visiting her I asked if she had any old Sprint phones she's not using so I can try it out on Ting.
Got two of them now, one for me and one for wife. I have my wife on a stable 4.3 HellyRom, I don't have any problem trying out beta (alpha?) roms on mine though.
I'm going to try it with those two 4.4 tweaks (bionic and dalvik), plus I have a few radios downloaded I can try with it.
I'll let you know how it goes
Edit: So far, it's 'booting', but only to the first set up page asking me to set up a cyanogen account, where I'm constantly bombarded with FC's stating the dialer and systemui have crashed, those happen consistently for a minute or so until the phone reboots and starts the process over again.
I'm going to try flashing a version of Googlephone I saw on another thread after flashing ROM/Gapps, see if that does anything.
I've decided I like this phone enough to start trying some dev work on it. Might take me a while to get back in the loop (last thing I did dev work on was my first android phone, the HTC Hero on Sprint... Looooonngg time ago)
Gonna finish setting up a VM with Ubuntu on it tonight and toy around with some building working with what we've got so far to hep get 4.4 running on the Nexus S 4g

You have my Github repo? I've merged all the necessary changes for the crespo4g in my device tree here:
https://github.com/jc4gavejc/android_device_samsung_crespo4g/tree/cm-11.0
I'm almost done with another build, I actually had openjdk7 installed before, so switched to oraclejdk6 (the one I should have been using).
That might just make the difference in the fcs. There's no other reason why my build shouldn't be working as perfectly as the ones they have for the crespo. Seriously, they're the same device minus the radios.
Hope stuff goes well for you, it'd be fantastic to have another dev working on this.

AOSP Rom

Hello! This is my first post and i want to know if anyone is making an AOSP rom for this device? It appears that this device is really laggy and stutters here and there. The Geodev rom is based on AOSP i think but don't know how the rom is doing right now and i can't comment on it because this is only my first post. MAY I KNOW WHO HERE IS TRYING TO GET AOSP FOR OUR DEVICE BECAUSE THAT IS THE ONLY WAY OF MAKING THIS SMOOTH. Thanks everyone! Cheers!

As of now, Geodev is the only one in development. If you're trying to get your post count up, go to the XDA General section and post in the new members forum or the off topic lounge.
postcount++
imho that geodev thing sounds shady at best.
If you would decide to port a custom rom to a new device, would you really start by porting KitKat if the device
currently only runs jellybean? Wouldn't it be easier to use the stock kernel for now to get cm10 running
and then wait paitiently until htc releases the kernel src to make it a full unofficial cm10 build.
Instead this sounds more like taking the existing source of a hopefully hardware compatible build
and bending it until it brea.. ehm works.
I may be biased, but if you plan to make any kind of release you usually don't go and announce it to the world.
This only encourages the rather impatient endusers to come up with many variations of the same old:
"i need my rls now!", "I am entitled to a release because I found this thread","GIMME RLS!!!11oneeleven"
posts that will just annoy the crap out of every dev I've ever met. Also there is absolutely no point in asking for
beta testers before you even have a working build ready.
Combine that with the recent e-begging post and draw your own conclusions.

In any case, for the time being it might be a good idea to check if there are some services you could deactivate
in order to get a little bit more speed out of your phone. I personally have no problems with lags, but maybe
it's because I don't expect the phone to run every app ever made at the same time since it has only 512MB RAM.

[Suggestion] Stable ROM for Xperia S 4.4?

Hei guys,
Most probably this question has been asked already, but since then more updates had been followed.
I'm running a FreeXperia 4.1.2 ROM on my Xperia S, and I would like to change to a newer version (preferable 4.4.x) that is fitting a day-by-day use. What would you recommend me?

If You want extremely stable, go for Mokee. We still have official support from it. Second most stable according to Me is Carbon, but it has less frequent updates.
mokee?
Don't u have force closes ?
I think crDROID is most stable if your looking for KitKat rom
Never-ever use CrDroid for daily-use, it's kinda nice rom although you'll get alot (well, a few but still) of random reboots, it has very much customization options but with cost of stability.
Carbon Rom was quite nice 4.4.4 but the battery lasts half day with it...so it's also bad idea to use it.
I also used AOSPX, Paranoid, CM 11 and Mokee but can't say much about them because they were on my XS only for a few minutes - didn't liked any of them but I've heard much good things about AOSPX so you can try that one.
Otherwise I don't recommend any 4.4 roms, better stick to 4.1
I would recommend using PA or Carbon, both are stable ROMs of 4.4.4 for Xperia S. Carbon has more customization than PA, but PA is like semi-lollipop. Both give you 721 MB of RAM against 621 MB of stock JB.

AOSPX works very well. Only problem is you can't use your phone for calling. Oops.
Call volume does not do anything AND the other end can't hear you. So if you don't want to talk with anyone it's afine rom

Good for you but it doesn't do much for me.
And for the record, I just had to completely wipe my XS so it's not likely that either.
I guess I'll give PA a shot and if it won't work, I'll go back to 4.1. I'n any case I'm just using the phone as for a 2nd sim card to pick up calls and little else. Stock rom has this aggravating bug with PIN codes where the android phone will keep on crashing, so..
The best overall rom so far
For me the smoothest,fastest and most stable is the carbon rom build 20140808-1848
Also customization options available... try it you wont regret it...
I experienced crdroid, it's a great rom but has some bugs and reboots a few times in a day. I have been using CARBON rom (20141103 build) for 3 weeks, and I'm very happy with it. It's very stable for me.
Well, Paranoid android v4.4.4 also had the same very low voice problem in-call. At least the other guys can hear ME but I can't really hear THEM. I also grabbed the low voice fix and installed it but it didn't help.
I think I'll check the OpenSEMC-U 10.1 now, lots of people seem to like it. (that's 4.2)
Nope, same problem. 4.2.2 CM10.1 has very very low volume in-call as well. And, yes, I did wipe, install new kernel blah bloody blah blah.
*sigh* I guess it's back to the official "android phone has stopped" firmware :crying:
Try LP nAOSP or AOSP, they are better then 4.4

Custom ROM recommendation, lollipop

I've tried AICP and XenonHD, but they have some bugs and lag(on my HOX) except on performance governor.
Is there any "cleaner" ROM, like AOSP or CM12.1?
I saw CM12.1(unofficial), is it good?
Thanks in advance.

Is there any CLEAN ROM, not full of .... like changing notification bar color(just example)?
AOSP? I couldn't find any.

First of all don't post in two different section it is enoght to post only on one place.
Second one no body will say this rom is better then anather, have few roms based on lolipop try them all and take decision for you wich one is better. And don't be anger for this where you don't like some roms the dev's work free for this roms and you are not happy. Yes the roms are stable for daily use and some people like AICP and XenonHD, others like SlimLP or Resurection Remix, other CM12.1 or FlexOS, Pac ROM too. You install two you heave to install more 5 and take decision. If you are not happy with lolipop you can try KitKat if you are not happy with them too, then go back to JellyBean if not happy with them flash stock rom, if not happy with stock buy a new phone with Marshmallow.

First of all, thank you for your answer.
Second, I respect everything devs have done for the community but I don't like when they say "smooth" when it isn't. Also, I'm raping the "thanks" button whether I like the ROM or not. I tried these because they seemed the most popular.
Third, I'm not expecting stuff to work like on S6 for eg. but just working normal would be enough.(Had HD2 with jellybean, I know what is patience). I'm not even mad for those options, I like them. But if they cause stability issues, why adding them..
Fourth, if you read, you would see I apologized for posting in "General" and wrote for mods to delete it.
I guess I'll try Resurrection.
Have you tried CM12.1?
EDIT: My first post was a little bit rude. Changed it now. I was angry when my phone got stuck while trying to play Youtube video in HD.

No I didn't try CM12.1 but some people say it is good. Try SlimLP too, Pac Rom is new too the thread is before few days it is new in the ONE X forum. Just try them all and maybe you will find the best rom for you. I am on JB because I need realy stable phone because of my job 24/7,and good battery life, only today I have 180 min call time. With KitKat and LP roms have big battery drain and this is know bug. I will see the new Marshmallow release how is going, hope @teemo will make it perfect for us.:fingers-crossed:
