Update April 30: CM-10 for Locked Bootloaders Rom

Rom updated. Compiled from Cyanogenmode latest sources on April 29. All fixes (battery/audio/wifi) incorporated in code before compiling, so there is no need to decompile individual apps. Also, I have changed default network from WCDM to LTE/GSM, which means that your phone should connect to LTE/4G right on reboot.
CHANGES: Numerous ranging from improving network to better ram management. If you look at commits, they go between 4 days to 6 months old.
Remember, this is not a port or cooked up rom, it has been fully compiled from sources. Enjoy.

Here is another CM10 rom for IONs with locked bootloaders. This one is based on original CM10 experimental build by Jenkins. So, it is a slightly different build from that of FXP based MrGezz's one.
Changes:
1. Rom completely rebuilt
2. All my patches (Wifi/Battery) included, so, no need to flash anything post installation
3. Google Analytics disabled
4. Newer Camera and Gallery included
5. Dock enabled in Settings (I think)
6. A few stock alarm, ringtones and notification sounds added
7. All apps re-signed with the same key to fix bootloop
BUGS: same as in all CM based roms
CREDIT: Cyanogen Team; MrGezz/Letama/Olivier for initial LB patch
INSTRUCTIONS:
Fresh Install (recommended)
1. Have JB latest Stock Kernel, Roger's Baseband in case of LT28i, Root and Recovery
2. Format System/Data/Cache in TWRP or Mount and Format the same in CWM
3. Install the ROM and Reboot. Nothing else is needed
If you are already on CM-10 by Mr.Gezz, you might be able to restore your Data partition. In this case, after
initial installation steps above:
1. Reboot, let the rom settle, then restart the phone and go to TWRP
2. Restore your previously backed up CM-10 rom: DATA ONLY!!! The only thing you might have different is if you had a different SU app, you now might have two. In this case, delete the one you are not going to use. Although, this method should work fine, the preferred way is always: Fresh Install
WARNING!!! Back up your rom prior to new install. As usual, I am not responsible for bricking your device, cold war, WW3 or total annexation of your country by mother Russia (which may happen anyway regardless of this install). If you dare to complain after this fair warning, I will forward your grievances to Mr. Putin.
P.S. I have not tested this version of the rom on the phone, but the original CM10 version by Jenkins works fine with LB patch. Also, I have confirmed that re-signing all system apps gets rid of bootloops when patched framework and settings apps are incorporated in the rom. But again, don't forget to back up your current rom.

Just got it up and running. No problems to report..everything seems to be working so far.
The recent apps crash that I was experiencing with other CM based roms is not there in this rom. Thanks for this very light and speedy rom.
EDIT: you forgot to add the web browser or was that intentional?

Yes, I did forget web browser. It is attached. Just transfer to system/app with correct permissions.

Thanks for the browser.
Had problems with the CM file manager. After transferring to system/app and changing permissions, the file manager force-closed. And from this point on, it FC'd every time I tried to launch it. And also started getting random calendar app FC toast when I wasnt trying to run the calendar app.
I re-flashed the rom and got this done with root explorer and now there are no FC's.

CM based roms are sensitive to tethering with system apps. You got to set permissions the right way.

You do need to instal the original web browser unless you use something else. Google Analytics? You decompile an app, go to the corresponding XML file and change "true" to "false." Or if you want to delete it you delete several files...

When you say "decompile" do you mean unzip the APK?

For future reference, please tell me the right way to set permissions. Would rebooting into recovery and setting permissions this way be safer? I don't have a strong background in these things but I am happy to follow instructions.
Also, I installed xperia_launcher3.apk that I found on xda. Its a light 1MB launcher and sort of gives me best of both worlds in terms of sony appearance. Do you recommend making this a system app and removing trebuchet or will trebuchet just be sleeping while xperia launcher is running as the default?

No. There is a lot more to it. Just search xda on how to decompile an app.

Don't ever fix permissions on custom roms for locked bootloaders, you will never boot. With the new launcher installed, try to freez trebuchet, if everything works, then delete it. Yes, it makes sense to put the launcher in system with right permissions.

too bad the xperia launcher is no longer being updated...
I really want a cm rom but with the same look and feel of sony xperia launcher ui... that's why I always go back to stock based rom...
any good xperia launcher recommendation that will work on cm10?

this is stable .. i used it for a day. I added stock sony widgets from the same page and it all works as it should.
the one down side so far is that the unread counter is a separate app that isnt free. I didnt buy it.

Then how do you fix permissions on a custom ROM? I've found that fixing permissions every few months fixes forced close (FC) problems.

You can't fix permissions on a custom rom for locked bootloaders. If you don't install rougue apps, there is no need to fix permissions. If you experience f/cs, you should clear settings in individual apps. If that doesn't help, you could try to restore system partition of your rom (of course it needs to be backedup first).

Liquidsmooth lollipop for S3
Hi,
Here are some builds for the S3, including the d2tmo. I've loaded the but had to go back to backup , there is a bug (black screen) with lollipop that i could not stay with it.

Adam

fully functional work around to get lollipop on s3 d2tmo t999l
after doing a lot of research i have sucsesfully installed lollipop onto my s3 and got the camera to work with the camera for android app from the play store. the data also works the build i installed is the 12-20141125-unofficial-d2att after changing the script file to include d2tmo instead of the d2att. works great no real bugs except the time stamp on hangout mesages which is fixed by setting the time on the phone to network but turning of the reginal time set. thought this would be nice to share.
ps: stock camera and google camera still do not work but everything else does so this can be used as a daily driver links below to camera and build:

No apologies needed at all. Don't know if one version of the recovery matters or not. I know it did way back in the days of the CLIQ but I'm hoping not this far along

Discussion, Benifits of rooting and available tweaks?

For me at least until my SW3 updates to Android 6 I see very little point in rooting my SW3... And as yet other than twrp and Kernel I don't feel there are enough mods etc or even Custom roms(if any) to even bother with rooting... On a phone there are huge benifits but a watch that relies on your phone for most everything I see no advantages yet...

I know what you mean, side loading apps is cool, and being able to change the DPI. Firefox and Google keyboard works well, cm cleaner works perfectly and helps uninstalling apps and es file manager is good for installing apps

Be honest. Do you really need a reason beside "it can be done"?

No lol, but I want tweaks

LOL I guess not. Andhopefull we will get Marshmallow soon and then will have a proper play!

Hopefully, it's been seen in the wild. Just need them to pull their fingers out.

So, while I agree that waiting to root until after 1.4 might be a good idea, here is what I did with root...
Direct wifi access with apps (mostly es File Explorer for on watch app install and uninstall)
Kernel experimenting and tweaking
Uninstall wear apps but keep host apps on phone
All done without a computer (after initial install and setup)
Run most terminal commands with a single tap (like changing dpi)

if this question was dedicated to me, my answer is:
I read posts about android and chrootet linux distros and used a similar technique to do this with my smartwatch 3. As soon as I am allowed to post a DEV-THREAD I will probably make a quick tutorial about it.

Looking forward to it. Not something I've looked at

[Custom Rom] Huawei Mate 8 - NXT-L29C432B582
- Custom System Update - ("V.6")
- EMUI 5.01 - Android 7 -
On TWRP backup basis.
This update replaces the [K-Rom-M8-V5].
Developed and tested on this device:
Huawei Mate 8 (NEXT)
Model number: Huawei NXT-L29
Build number: NXT-L29C432B582
- OTA updated.
- Without branding, with root and root access.
- TWRP recovery
Mods:
- Call Recorder
- KangVip Advanced settings
- Autostart administration in the phone manager (PM+)
- Viper 4 Android FX
- Obtaining OTA authorization
I couldn't test if this runs on Firmwares other regions.
I think the v6 is going on all regions on B582/592.
Quick guide for experienced users:
Please make a backup of your data with Huawei Backup and TWRP.
The Rom will be installed as if you wanted to restore a TWRP backup.
All your apps remain intact.
Conditions required:
- Firmware B582,
- TWRP recovery, (from download, or available from v5 )
- root is not necessary,
- OEM and FRP unlocked,
- USB Debugging on.
All required files are in the download folder.
You are familiar with the matter? Then let's go!
If available, uninstall these apps: SuperSu and Magisk.
A unroot is not necessary. Please do not download the downloads as "ZIP".
Installation:
1. Replace existing boot partition:
"2017-12-M8.B582.stock.kernel.boot"
copy in the TWRP backup directory to the ExtSd and restore.
2. Install update:
"2017-12-M8_B582_AdvS_Xposed_SystemUpdate"
also copy to the TWRP backup directory and restore."
3. Rooting:
- In TWRP mount Internal storage/ system,
- go to: Install, system/ k-rom/ set and install the SuperSU. zip.
- Reboot.
- After starting, take the BusyBox App from the download.
Then please use it to install its binaries.
- Install the PM+ app and bring the autostart administration to the phonemanager.
Iggnore the incompatibility warning.
Do not reboot between steps 1 to 3. Do not wipes before and after.
That's all. The installation is complete.
If Viper or Xposed have not been installed with it, this can be found in the
Advanced settings can be made up for.
Xposed is already active. In case the framework gets disabled,
in the Advanced settings. There's no way use other Xposed versions.
This also applies to SuperSU. They are not compatible with this system.
Both are optimized for this system.
Of course, you can also use Magisk to root later with the instructions
in the v5 thread. (loss of ota authorization)
Xposed does not run under magisk rooting together with the Advanced settings.
It must be used for a successful SafetyNet test, must be completely removed before rooting.
In the Kangvip Advanced settings do not use the Addblocker and "hide Activate NavBar".
Both works only on China Roms.
Hiding the NavBar can be done comfortably with the App "Tiles" from the playstore. (See v5)
In the K-Advanced Settings /tune cpu, some of the following are available.
Modifications of the computer performance possible. Those who need more power can do so.
Testing out the "Power save" options is useless. Did a lot of it.
The Huawei's own energy saving settings cannot be topped.
Good luck!
Thank you very much:

This rom is going really well. Especially Xposed. I haven't been able to get it that stable yet. I'm really glad I finally made it.

@jbmc83
I now have the link of the v2 you are looking for. Still interested?

Everyone who works on a rom is a developer!
Here the link friends.

It's not HRT. Should be better. Look closely at the zip, could have subdirectories.

ah yes, i remember that one! actually have it already, you had provided a link before still, thanks for your trouble!
apparently, there is a new chinese B593 out, although the full stock versions provided on firmware finder are not approved for installation, unfortunately... so they cant be flashed properly. still, nice to see development continuing

I'll continue, of course, because it's questionable whether we get oreo.
Has someone successfully installed my update on another region?
Please let us know.

How to make new roms when you can't get to the baidu downloads anymore?

question is rather: how to make new roms if there arent any new firmwares being developed officially?
Sent from my HUAWEI NXT-AL10 using Tapatalk

Yeah, that's an aspect too. Making a new rom after every update is somehow unproductive. Just because of the google patch? I only made my update because of the stable xposed. I only make new ones in the future if something fundamentally changes.

Any news about oreo guys?[emoji848]

Wow this is great work, how about the data? Is it decrypted with this method?

Thank you.
My rom is not encrypted. It also replaces only the boot and system partitions.
Since data remains unaffected, nothing changes. It remains as it was before installation.

Thanks for sharing this. I currently use T-Mobile in the US. Have you tested the ROM with the T-Mobile carrier and do the added ADC files affect anything while using T-Mobile (VoLTE, HD Voice, etc)?
I have partially been following another forum that was working to boot loader unlock the Idol 4s for Windows 10 mobile. I don't think this ROM was a result of that, but do you know of any other news?

No, I have not tested it. I have IDOL4S Open from Microsoft.

You can mention that there is a provxml file to install Yandex.Search.appxbundle in the IDOL4S_6071W_F1052.16.09031.50700_Open_RTM_10.0.15 254.490_Custom ROM. It is not in the T-Mobile ROM though.
This is a useful scenario too for some of us who might want to Edit the registry on the IDOL 4s outside of the current changes in these ROMs. Mount the bin file save the edits and flash the changes. Do you know if making changes such as reg edits would require an altered or updated rawprogram0.xml? Thanks.

Ok. I can test it later and if issues occur I could possibly change out those ADC files for the T-Mobile files.

I don't know what you're trying to say. The layout of the sections does not change, the size of the sections does not change. Why should change rawprogram0.xml. Data in rawprogram0.xml is taken from GPT, these are rawprogram0.xml is best for this ROM.

Sorry my fault. It has been a while since working with qc loaders and program xml files. For some reason I was thinking rawprogram0.xml contained the space used by the partitions not the whole partition size.

I am having an issue on the custom ROMs being able to sign in with my Microsoft account while setting up the phone. It either locks up/freezes the set up process, or fails. I think it fails while checking account info and it never pulls the backups to restore. Ultimately the account will be signed in but can only move forward after skipping the step entirely to be able to set up the rest of the phone.
Is this just me or have you noticed an issue?

It's not a bug, but a feature Only in custom ROM F1050.14.08011.53400_TMOUS_Retail. Associated with reset protection packets. They are in this firmware test. So it will be with the official ROM F1050.14.08011.53400_TMOUS_Retail, if you update it above 15063.2.

On the versions above 15063.2 reset protection is activated automatically by logging into your account, with no choice of disabling it. And in this firmware of packets of protection against reset in MainOS is not present.

I'm sorry I did not word that so you understood. I meant why is your custom ROM set as an older firmware? The fw revision of the T-Mobile firmware is older than the official production one on most phones. I am assuming you used this version to customize a ROM for some reason.

Well yes of course! One would have their work cut out for them if they did not have to manually build those items into a ROM on their own. Was hoping maybe you had plans to incorporate those items into an updated or different firmware if possible. One that would allow restoring of a backup, and had reset protections bugs fixed . No worries about that though, was only wishful thinking.

Ok I will try it out again. I thought I tried to restore a backup on Both ROMs and failed to with the same bug.
For some reason on the Open market Custom ROM the ndtk packages are not active after flashed or not working. Maybe it is just me but I can't edit the registry, enable Interop services or full file system access from Interop Tools until I send the packages again even though they are there. Plus I have to make other changes to it as well for T-mobile nvi settings.

New Issues on Idol 4S using custom ROM
Installed TMOUS version of this custom ROM (Thank you OP for your efforts!) on August 8 and was delighted to uninstall the remaining VR apps. As nate0 posted earlier, I couldn't sign in during the initial setup, and was not able to restore earlier backups as expected. Phone is TMOUS retail locked (so far - longtime TMO customer awaiting billing cycles on this phone for unlock code).
Since then M$ has updated the OS build to 10.0.15254.527. Things keep breaking faster than I can keep track of - and not sure which are a function of 1) the custom ROM, 2) the Idol 4S, or 3) Microsoft desire to chase us away. New issues include:
Amazon - crashes at launch
Microsoft Wallet (v. 2.3.17311.0) - allowed me to scan 1 loyalty card successfully, then refuses to recognize/scan codes,
"CameraAccessDenied" error message
Flashlight (v. 4.0.0.0 Sakariya) - no longer can turn led on/off (Flashlight XT still works fine)
People (v. 10.2.2001.1000) - live tile stopped working after about a week, can't get it to work at all anymore
Translator (v. 4.8.7.0) - live tile works for about 1 day, then remove, disable/enable to restore function for another day
Microsoft Store - (v. 11807.1001.13.0) - live tile works for about 1 day, then same as Translator
My Library this morning shows about 1/3 of my apps that were listed last week ???
