Hboot 1.3x GPS issue on AOSP, CM, AOKP roms - HELP

Hello Everybody,
especially kernel developpers! Please try to have a look at the issue, in my opinion is a kernel repack issue, googled it to death without a solution! Slowly everybody is moving on to new HBOOTs and the 4.2 project is still far from stable.

Trip's ROM and his kernel combined have working GPS. As far as I know, not much kernel devs can do without the source.

I know that, I am using SlimBean, love the rom, but the thread support is a bit...let's say, slow (rather non existent). I looked for smth like a stable release, I saw that they have anounced that this is the final version of 4.1 and they start working on 4.2. No busgs in the rom. Of course, in no changelog or issue list the nonfunctional GPS issue is not mentioned. I am still convinced that there is a way to do it! I'll keep roaming the forum!

It is likely to be sorted when jb kernel sources are released.
And don't ask when, nobody knows.

Of course I don't ask when, I never ask when, but does at least anyone know what the issue is?

Probably kernel incompatibility with newer hboots.

Apparently there is micro kernel responsible for the GPS and the repack for the new boots is not done right.

No one any idea?

Answer:
"People started to get confusing when newer hboot versions stopped working with custom ROMs: The reason for this is that people used an ancient init binary that crashed with newer hboot releases."

I too suffered loss of GPS after updating to 1.31
I have tried a number of NON sense roms, but Ice Cold Jelly running Android 4.2.1 is good. Working GPS again - phew!

You don't need roms for that, you need kernels try Franco's kernel. Cynogen is the most stable and bug free ROM out there.

http://download.cyanogenmod.org/
Get the latest version from here and be sure to select the correct device or you know..... Brick etc...
You can find many kernels on the development section of your device
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-nexus/development this is for maguro
You can use others but I prefer using Franco kernel as it is very easy to flash (you can download it's app from play store just type Franco kernels and download it. You can use auto flash option from it)
Remember these things are very tricky,it can make your device unusable if you install it incorrectly so..... Take care
And yeah nightlies are official so you better get them from their website as they are fully tested and it is less likely to go anything wrong with them

I know that people generally stick to Cyanogenmod due to it's stability, but I think it is overrated due to the fact that they support so many devices. I would prefer ROMs where the devs actually have the device, and focus on the device since they plan to have it for a while.
With that being said, here is my favorite ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-nexus/development/rom-omnimetal-linaro-omni-rom-t2550477
I haven't had any issues (like apps that force close) on it, and apps run fine. In fact, I have also switched to ART and it is pretty stable and blazingly fast. My test was its battery life, and it lasted me close to 7 days on standby with groove ip running on it (receiving calls, texts, etc.), and 2 days with active usage with a sim card.
Hope this helps!

Thanks for atleast reply and suggesting me some ROM which is i ever try.. but now i am little confused, for selecting ROM, I made my mind as per last reply ROM from CM11 Nightly and Kernel From Franco but now OMNI i need to learn about that too.
Can anyone have suggestion on that or give me little more light on ROM.
Thanks

Its good to have choices
If you are new to flashing ROMs, usually CM 11 is an excellent choice.
However, to me speed, low RAM consumption and good battery life matters, so here are the reasons why I chose that ROM:
1. Linaro toolchain - Here is a link to explain why it is faster than standard CM:
http://www.androidauthority.com/linaro-android-is-up-to-twice-as-fast-as-stock-android-92831/
2. Dirty_V kernel - For speed, most of us Nexus users feel it is the best. It is an improvement over Franco's kernel
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-nexus/development/kernel-dirtyv-t2613655
So, I usually choose a ROM which uses the linaro toolchain. I also got a ton of cool features like notifications, omniswitch, etc. which you can read about in the ROM link from my previous post.
In the end, I am just giving you suggestions. Why don't you try creating a nandroid backup and then flashing many ROMs to see which one you like? Using the nandroid backup, you could always come back to the tried and trusted CM 11 !
Here is a small intro to nandroid backups which may be useful even in the future in case you mess up your phone with a bad update:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/NANDroid
Hope this helps! :good:

I'm switch between 2 Roms.
Remix
Vanir
Bothe stable and fast.
CU
Litening

Thanks really ! I'll definatly read and try on of that, but first I'll take nandroid backup and learn how to restore etc.
CM11 is good but some time its response very lately specially when charging.

You might want to try omnirom (google for omnirom download, you want the maguro version).
They push daily updates (I install updates every 1-3 weeks). They closely track AOSP (meaning a new AOSP will be made available ASAP). It's a very stable rom and I'm running it my nexus 4 and a modified version on my Galaxy Nexus. It's been incredibly stable and reliable so far. Oh, and its 4.4.2

No try omnimetal! No try vanir! No try liquidsmooth! No try Xenonhd!. So you need to test everything. These threads are useless and not allowed. Choose one you like. Every rom is stable unless specified otherwise..

Pick the one from the omnirom.org download page. All others are remixes - cool stuff you can get in this forum, but not the most stable experience.

[Q] Can anyone give me a link to a very stable rom for Ace 2?

I am not using this phone, and its a for someone else.
Currentlly it has CM11 Unofficial version. While it works well, sometimes things do FC and Dialer goes silent.
Help would be needed. I am not asking for the best rom or so, just stable with all features working.

Everybody will have a different opinion. Some will tell you Cm11 is the best, others will recommend stock ROM...
I find the stock ROM + kyrillos + chrono kernel quite fast if you don't install too many apps (like Facebook)
CM11 is the most stable I think (at least the last builds by ace2nutzer)
For now, I'm running Carbon Rom and I find it great.
You just have to try the ROMs and see which is the best for your usage.
Hope this helped

Try posting this in general or Q&A. Your question is like asking which Victoria Secret model has the best body. There are several excellent LP roms that are a WIP. That being said, try a few. We are blessed with several quality Dev's cranking out sweet roms.
LP Models: CYANIDE L, BlissPop, Dirty Unicorn.
4.4.4 Models: Ditto Note 4 DN4, EZKat, LiquidSmooth, SlimRom
Others I'm sure.

I would like to know too, I upgraded to TeamUB, then all in a sudden, no more support.

the n7105 has official cyanogenmod12.1 and official mokee os 51.1
both of which are very stable
now if you don't have a very high speed internet connection I would recommend mokee os because it uses incremental updates which mean you only download a small ota unlike cm that forces you to download the entire build every time
ps I would recommend the release versions of mokee os because it will run faster then nightlies

I use Blisspop with my galaxy s3.
I looked at the device page from blisspop, but there is not a N7105 device listed...
Same by TeamDirt.

Does mookee ROM come rooted, or need to flash SuperSU separately?
What about Gapps?
I couldn't find XDA thread for mookee 5.1.1 it looks there is only an old 5.0.2 thread that looks quite abandoned. Am I missing something, or it's my starch button failing on me?

the thread is just for discussions about the rom and any bugs in it
the fact it is abandoned is a good thing ... and means that there is no one complaining and it's running great
and you could use [May, 25 2015] AROMA-LP-GAPPS-5.1
as for the root all android 5.1 roms are rooted but you have to enable it from the developer options
I haven't used supersu with it yet though the default root settings are working without a glitch

I'm just flashed NamelessROM 5.1.1 experimental build few days back, no issue so far.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/namelessrom/files/n-2.1/t0lte

Its rooted right?

All custom ROMs are rooted. You're just needed to install supersu app.

I just wanted to say maybe just try every one that is out, make a backup of each, and you can always choose between any of them.

I agree with @BRANDENDEUCE. I think I've seen him post on every LP thread in the Tmo and N7105 forums
I know I've tried ALL that I found compatible with the T889 (t0ltetmo and t0lte, specifically N7105).
I also want to add, aside from trying all of them out, try them even if they haven't been updated or have been discontinued. For example, I've had nice success in the past with a ROM that was discontinued but I tried it anyway because it was 5.1.1 not 5.0.2.
If you read around, you'll find that some ROMs that are updated often, could see some hiccups along the way. Some people love it while othiers prefer a stable release and not many updates.
I have a T-Mobile T889 and found out that the N7105 roms also work (not N7100 though), and I found some t0lte ROMS that worked that were only in the AT&T Note 2 forums (anything not t0lteatt specific).

Good Question.
My experience has been that My Note 2 (SGH-T889) just doesn't want to run any Lollipop ROMs?
Currently on Team OctOs 5.1.1 and even last night, in airplane mode, with 31% battery, my phone died, and my alarm then failed.
Upon plugging in, battery jumps to 65% in less than a minute. And, Yes, I did a rooted battery calibration.
This is the fifth Lollipop ROM that has proven too unstable for me as a daily driver.
I may go back, again, to Conch Republic 4.4.1 and fore go the bells-and-whistles of 5. . . . .
Thanks for the MoKee, I, too, had never come across it in my research!?

[Q]Stable Custom ROM

Dear All,
I'm looking for stable custom rom (if possible lollipop/marshmallow) for my e988 4g KitKat device, especially that can save battery usage. Do you guys have any refference?
There are so many custom rom but i'm difficult to find the plus and minus side of those rom.
Ive been looking to cm site, but unfortunately they are not available anymore
Thankyou

Look, most AOSP ROMs have same issues: camera crashes, bluetooth connection problems etc. etc. Everything else is pretty much same. People were mostly using SlimLP and Carbon, some used Bliss but I think there is no download link for it. Slim and Carbon use a bit more customizable kernel (dave used my kernel for as long as he built Carbon, and SlimLP has just a bit newer version of it, with GPU issues fixed completely).
My choices were Slim and (later, after Slim stopped updating their Lollipop sources) PAC (built for personal needs, no uploads) so if you want AOSP, go with SlimLP or Carbon. Carbon was working nicely too, and last time I had Bliss installed was somewhere after Lollipop just started, so can't judge how last versions worked.
If any of this is not good enough, try any of these stock roms, if any still available. I can't recommend anything from there simply because I never wanted to use those - if stock was that good, I'd stay on it
P.S. This device never received Marshmallow updates due to insane amount of work someone had to provide. I had few attempts but never moved over some issues with modem. More in the forums...

Thank you for the explanation, i will look more for Carbon in Android Development threads.

Were there any MM kernels ever compiled that you know of? Could someone with enough time and work be able to successfully compile a working rom? A bit of a developing noob, but have two E980s and plenty of time on my hands.

Yes, mine I was probably only one who worked on Marshmallow, but sources are now long gone, drive I've kept my repo is dead and I haven't uploaded that anywhere.

I've been using Carbon KK for several months and it is very stable and smooth. I've never used MM so not sure how it compares, but it has all the features I need to keep using this phone every day.
