Full Disclosure
This is my first android project, so go easy on me.
Project Status
It's usable as a phone
So any willing beta testers are welcome to join the 'fun' and report further bugs.
Project !Status
mobiledata works but will drain your battery
(if you need to use it, reboot after switching it off)
libaudio is not fully functional
(stock has no mic unless in a call and custom has no speaker)
USB only works in mtp mode
(mass_storage mode appears to be incompatible with rmt_storage)
FM Radio not available
(required apps are currently not compiling)
Camera (front) appears unstable
(didn't bother to check what might be the cause)
TODO
[high priority]
fix libaudio (recording in stock or speaker in custom)
[medium priority]
fix libril -> mobile data drains the battery
[low priority]
enable apps2sd -> 2GB internal should suffice for the time being
check if cm supports proximity & light sensors -> they do work fine
fix mass_storage -> mtp is working
fix video recording -> it's a phone not a camcorder
fix video playback -> at least they are running
fix camera -> it's a phone dammit
find a better fix for wifi -> it works for now
fix graphical glitches

(My mind is a swirling miasma of scintillating thoughts and turgid ideas.)​

What are the requirements ? I guess I should use the only recovery available for the device ? and also, since we don't have s-off working for this device I think we have to flash the boot.img right ?

I'd recommend using the recovery from this build for the job. It won't crash unlike the philz version.
And no, you don't need to flash boot seperately. The only requirement is an unlocked bootloader.
S-ON only protects hboot and radio from flashing so you can safely install this release from the recovery.
Don't forget to backup your current system.

I'm downloading the files now, will test and report ASAP

Can i promote this in 2 german Forums? ist German translation available?
when do you think you will fix wifi?
HUGE THANKS IN FORWARD FOR COMPILING CM!

After the experiment:
the Rom stable and fast, but Wi-Fi does not work and do not contain FM radio
Front camera not working
I wish you success in your work and I hope you update the version of Android to be higher than 4.1.2
Thank you very much ..

In which way will PhilZ CWM crash? will it still install the rom or not? will it brick my phone?

Ah yes FM. It's included in the custom libaudio that can't connect to the speaker.
Which I currently simply replace with the stock lib to make it work as a phone so it can be used to test battery consuption etc.
Sadly the cm apps used for fm won't compile for me. So even if I get libaudio working FM would still be untestable without non cm apps.
I'll add it to the todo once the libaudio trouble is resolved.
The wifi is an annoying issue. I manged to get it to load the drivers so the p2p0 socket gets created.
But it tries to restart it as STA which if my google fu is correct it shouldn't do, since this firmware does not need restarting.
The front camera is a curious bug. It works absoluetly fine for me until I point it towards my face.
So it's either a problem with the proximity sensor or the nasty htc camera tries some facial recognition crap and dies.
If I ever decide to logcat the camera I can tell you more.
Now for a higher version, don't get your hopes up. At least not from my side.
First I'll try my best to fix this up. Then I'll wait for htc to release the kernel so I can get a closer look at the configuration
for this device and maybe adjust it to make this rom even better. Then again the last kernel I compiled was 10 years ago for a gentoo install.

If you are quick it will install fine. So if you prefer to live dangereously, don't let me stop you
I don't know if it is only an error that is presented on my device. Or maybe it was updated since then.
But for me philz recovery by SPSPawn does boot into a dead state. If you reboot it will crash until a panic reset is triggered.
Actually it is allready crashed while you are in recovery. Therefore you are on a timer until the device resets or you decide to
take out the battery.
I had the same problem on my build and it was caused by cwm always ignoring the ueventd.rc I had prepared because I didn't know
I had to copy it to root and not to recovery.
I've never bothered to figure out which missing element of this script was responsible because I had to substitute it in any case.
But honestly, tell me. Why do you prefer philz? I'm allready (so far unsuccessfully) trying to port twrp. If you have a few good arguments
I might be willing to try compiling a fixed version of philz aswell.

Well i didnt want to use a pc right now ... A TWRP port would be amazing
Is mobile data working?
Can you make your recovery flashable via cwm?

It always tried to download the google language pack for my region until I aborted it. So, yes mobile data should be available.
You mean put the recovery into an update zip thingy, right. Well I could, but you will have used a pc before I'll find the time to upload it.
I'll keep it in consideration for the next update.

Well, atleast internet
When do you think you'll fix wifi?

Regarding to wifi, it will be fixed once it's fixed. Or if you prefer the usual response: When it's done.
This will happen either after or before libaudio is fixed. And that's about as specific as I can get.

Well, it was worth a try still thanks for your effort!

Okay, here goes.
First I tried installing the ROM with the PhilZ recovery because I already had it on my phone, didn't work. Gave me some kind of error (not sure about the error code anymore). Flashed your recovery, worked flawlessly. Now for the ROM.
It's pretty stable, I've had only one strange crash and that was in the first 2 minutes of using it so I don't even know if it counts. The additional CM settings panel works fine, quick toggles are ok, I haven't tried overclocking yet - I'll leave that to someone else. But I have found some bugs:
-proximity sensor not working (screen doesn't go black when you place it up to your ear)
-ambient light sensor not working (auto brightness doesn't work)
-video recording doesn't work
-the camera app glitched up the first time I tried to zoom (was fine afterwards)
-sometimes when going from portrait to landscape I got 1 second of weird graphical glitches
-signal indicator seems to be stuck at 2 out of 4 bars and doesn't move
Overall very nice, keep up the good work!

I guess wifi isnt working for you right?

It's not working, but I didn't put it on the list since he already knows it's bugged.

Well, i'll try today
Lets see what happens

Anyway, forgot to unpack the file ... GApps come with it?
SOOO, booting went fine, working like a charm... quicksettings page not available, quicksettings bar is working properly
Mobile Data works flawless, and i guess the rest is just fine
German language worked instantly
it feels way faster then Sense, a HUGE Thanks for you, makes me actually like that phone again ...
I'd like to promote it in German forums if i WiFi is fixed in near future

No, you have to get gapps on your own. Since there are multiple options you can choose for yourself. But if you did not format system,
as I've mentioned in the install instructions, chances are high that google apps did get picked up by the install script.
I am not sure if it can take them from the stock rom but it can and will take them from a cm rom and keep them on reinstall.
(I am really not very pleased by this behavior!)
I also should have mentioned that the primary language is decided by the simcard. (Which is annoying since I prefer english in any case)
Randnotiz:
Es freut mich das ich Dir den Spass am Gerät zurückgeben konnte.
Natürlich darfst Du es in deutschen Foren weiterverbreiten sobald die gröbsten Fehler behoben sind.
Einzige Vorraussetzung ist, daß Du es nicht als Deine Arbeit ausgibst.

Wow. That's much more broken than I expected it to be. Kudos.
Regarding the sensors. I currently am using the stock lib. And logcat let's me assume that they are working as they should.
(i.e they don't crash or drift into madness afaik)
Maybe the stock lib doesn't play well with cm, or you are expecting features from cm that are not implemented.
I will definetly try to compile a working sensor lib in the future, so I guess we'll see....
Camera is also just the stock lib for now. So it's no surprise that somethings might be acting up.
I need a lot of research into that subject before I can specify the requirements for the camera in my boardconfig.
The graphical glitches are rather minor and can be ignored for now. I am aware they exist.
But for now I'd rather focus on the more prominent broken features.
Like wireless for those of us that can't or won't use mobile data. (I belong to the 2nd group)
I noticed the signal indicator aswell. but that should be a problem of the radio compatibility.
We can't flash radio and I'm using the stock libril as the radio interface which should give maximum compatibility in theory.
Of course it doesn't irl... typical -_- (I hate you, Murphy!)

Does anyone have any clue how to use the mock locations for gps? They are enabled, but so far I couldn't find any way to set them to a specific location.

[Q] Xperia Overlay firmware

Hi,
I've read that now Xperia Overlay, the custom firmware by Achotjan, is ready for our Xperia Play.
According to what is reported on facebook, the latest working version is 2.1.3.
Did anyone try it? Is everything working?
Unfortunately it's a paid firmware, available only through their website

Quick review of Xperia Overlay
I've installed and updated Xperia Overlay on my Play.
In my opinion, it's not ready for daily use. There are random reboots and several bugs.
However, and that's strange, camera is working, and 720p video recording is available.
I will update the post as soon as I test the rom
Update: yesterday I tested the firmware, however today I switched back on stock GB, that still is the best for me.
About Xperia overlay, everything is working. It's not the same firmware of z2 obviously, since themes and stamina aren't working.
Speaking about bugs, I noticed that WiFi sometimes drops and light sensor doesn't work properly.
The major problems of the Rom are stability and performance. Everything is too slow. Unlocking the phone and switching between apps is frustrating. However it's still better than other Rom I tried.
Battery life is poor since to mitigate performance overclock is enabled by default to 1.6GHz. I had to decrease it to 1.4 since the phone use to reboot randomly every 2 mins. Btw reboot remains, like one per hour.
And that's all.
I hope to see this camera working in cm11 since it's the only thing that doesn't work.

what are the Install instructions for this ?? and did you use the above mentioned Version 2.1.1 only right.. how do you compare it to the current cm12 we have for Xperia play ?

To install you have to:
flash the kernel included via fastboot
reboot in cwm
wipe dalvik cache, cache
format data, system
install the zip
The latest complete fw is 2.1.1, then you can update it to 2.1.3 via ota through the preinstalled app.
I can't compare to cm12 since I don't tried it because I don't have an sd card fast enough

The CWM of the Kernel is not working for me. Seems like CWM is missing.

It works, i dont remember which is the right key.. Back or vol-down. Then you have wait a bit because it takes a while to load

Required : Opinions for Pixel Experience Rom

Hello Guys, I just bought a Lenovo Z2 Plus and wanted to install a custom rom on it. I did my thorough research through XDA and Youtube about various OREO based custom roms available for this phone. I like the Pixel Experience Rom but I am a newbie in flashing custom roms. I read in few threads about network connectivity issues in the Pixel Experience Rom and Resurrection Remix rom as well. In few of the youtube videos, I saw that the battery backup and Antutu score of Pixel Experience rom is marginally lower when compared to Resurrection Remix.
Can you guys give me your opinion on which rom should I install on my stock device. Kindly please provide the respective rom's Antutu Benchmark scores and Screen On Time especially for the Pixel Experience Rom. Please guide me about the bootloader unlocking and TRWP installation process as well. The last time I did all these was 2 years ago so kindly help me.
Thanks.

I have tried the PE (Pixel Exp) ROM and here my observations on that.
The Good
Extremely fluid. Performance is mind blowing. I have tried 3 Custom ROM so far (AEX, RR, PE) and PE felt the best performing in terms day to day device usage. Feels like PE is meant for Z2 Plus and vise versa. Everything works out of the box, GApps are preloaded, ROM is simple but very effective. All sensors, every piece of hardware included in the phone works perfectly. I never felt it was a custom rom, felt like meant for Z2 Plus.
The Bad
Not just just pixel, this is present in all Custom ROM for me and my device. I am from India, and using Reliance Jio VoLTE.
Now the problem is network reception isn't as good as stock ZUI.
The 2.4GHz WiFi got limited to 72 mbps only. Stock ZUI has no problem, tried changing few ROMs and finally settled with AEX which I see can connect to 2.4GHz WiFi and 150 mbps. I have tried baseband 1.76 (ZUI 2.5.104 ST India) and baseband 1.70 (Latest) for ZUI 3.5.3xx China. Nothing seems to help. Out of 4 ROM, Stock ZUI (2.5/3.5), PE, RR, AEX, only ZUI and AEX are able to give me a 150 mbps wifi link speed.
Now regarding the VoLTE reception. VoLTE works fine but network is fluctuating like hell. For me, the same is present in all three custom rom I have tried. AEX, RR, PE. Tried baseband 1.70/1.76 but couldn't solve it. There are no call drops but network isn't stable at all. Tested with Reliance Jio NetVelocity app for detailed information and it seems with none of the Custom ROM, Phone is able to sustain a stable 2300 MHz link. Falls back to 1800 MHz and 850 MHz randomly. Network speed wasn't bad, infact I would say satisfactory.
Only ZUI seems to have a stable Jio reception for me.
The Ugly
Battery issue. SOT is similar with 3 roms I have tried. PE/RR/AEX but something under PE is causing serious battery drain while idle. Overnight the phone is losing 2.5% to 3% battery per hour. I have tested to different custom kernel. AR-Beast and Heliox v2.0 with PE. Liked AR-Beast better as Heliox would underclock the CPU/GPU. Now with AR-Beast the idle battery drain came down to just around 1% per hour but still higher than default Resurrection Remix (RR ROM) or AEX ROM.
Presently using AEX ROM without any extra modification. Performance isnt as fuild as Pixel ROM but less problematic than others. Infact only ROM allowing me a 150mbps WiFi link speed.
Please guide me about the bootloader unlocking and TRWP installation process as well. The last time I did all these was 2 years ago so kindly help me.

Follow this guide to unlock the bootloader and install TWRP. Then installation processor of ROM will depend on which ROM you select. Note, there are two different ROM type now. 1. Full Treble 2. Non Treble. Installation process are different for them.
Pixel is a non treble ROM. Like 2 years ago, you would feel similar setup process.
If you chose Pixel, after you have unlocked and got TWRP installed,
1. download PE ROM
2. boot into TWRP
3. Wipe system, data, cache, dalvik
4. Flash ROM
5. Wipe Cache
6. Reboot
If all went ok, frist boot will take a few minutes and you will be asked to setup your Google Account under Pixel Exp ROM.
Remember, I am not an expert so wait for others to comment and guide you !! Just sharing from my personal experience !!
Good luck.

You need the NON-TREBLE new trees for PE ROM
Now as I said I am no expert so I dont know if one should flash kernel at one go. I can only tell you what I did.
First I did the PE. Setup the phone and used it for 20 odd minutes while setting up all the things. Then I went on to flash the AR-Beast. Some one suggested me not not turn on the phone immediately after kernel flash. Rather power off from TWRP wait for 10 mins before switch on. I don't know if it is required or not, but I have followed that advice.
Thanks.

@4tanmoy
One small mistake from my end. PE ROM comes with GApps included. So when you flash PE ROM, you don't need to Flash GApps again.

Yes, I did some more research. Flashed PE with UberCool.
After Setup, I flashed AR Kernal and SuperSu.
Installed Google Camera Mod for HDR+ and Potrait Modes.
Flashed Dialer Fix to resolve the dialer problem as it showed that phone is not supported when launching dialer. now fixed.
The PE ui is butter smooth, phone doesnot heats anymore. Charged last night till 100 % and browsed youtube, downloaded my preferred apps from play store, browsed quora for 30 mins, took some pictures. In the morning I played subway surfers, clash royal, some web browsing, downloaded all remaining apps for my phone. The battery is now 59% while I typing this from the phone.
Overall, I am astonished by the PE smoothness and completely satisfied by the battery life.

Excellent !!
Could you please check two things, how is the battery drainage overnight? While phone is idle.
Secondly, what is the WiFi Link speed?
Basically, two of my main problems lol

the wifi link speed is 72 mbps and about battery drainage overnight, i'll post tomorrow morning

regarding battery drain, I slept at 02:40 at night at 21 %. Woke up at 08:15 at 17 %. I guess 1% per hour. I am getting a Stand By time of 20+ hours and Screen On Time of more than 5 hours 30 minutes approximately.

Thanks for the reply.
Your data is very similar to what I have experienced with Pixel ROM.
This drainage is one of the issue for which I had to move out of Pixel ROM

Excellent review, I too installed PE and is enjoying every bit of Pixel, but the main problem I am facing is ,my phone's all sensors are dead or not working has tried Zuk Official too The nougat Indian and The Oreo Chinese version, but without any luck proximity gyroscope pedometer and other sensors are not working,
Would like ask someone from the forum to please help me to fix the isaue, as far as Custom rom in Zuk 2 I will stick to Pixel as it is the best till now what ever I have used . I have TWRP installed has flashed sensor.zip available in the Zuk Forum but nothing seems to work.
Waiting for a reply from the forum members it they take out sometime to help a man is distress.

Its a clear sign that something wrong with the hardware.
Do you have warranty left ?
If you do, QFIL 1.9 then flash 2.5 Indian ROM. Everything will be bone stock with locked bootloader and stock recovery. Go and claim warranty !!

If the issue is present with stock ROM also with bone stock phone, then it feels that the issue is with the Hardware.
Anyway, hope you find a solution and if you do, pls post that so that for reference if later down the some one needs he can fix his issue.

How much for the display change?
I got a friend with cracked 3GB variant needing a display change. Just taking an idea about approximately how much you spent for this change

@sheepkill15 I have a question mate. Is there anything specific regarding the installaton process of your ROM? I installed your RR-O-v6.1.0-20180907 and 8.1 GApps mini but I've been sitting on a bootanimation for over 20 minutes now. Thanks for your effort and sharing the ROM with us.

There's nothing special to be done, but yes, sometimes it's stuck in bootloop. What I usually do is:
Hard reset, wipe everything except microsd, delete the zip from sd card, copy it again and install again.
Idk why it needs sometimes to be flashed again, but that way it will boot for sure. A normal first boot with this rom should be around 7 minutes

I got it to work, and it is great. I just have one more question. Do you have any recommendations on which gcam version to use? Thank you once again.

In the current build, the biggest problem is that the buttons dont light up, but I fixed that in the meantime, just haven't uploaded it yet. The other noticeable issue is that the battery life is not perfect. I'm working on it too. The radio isn't working yet, but you don't use it, there's nothing more.
I don't know about dual sim, since I have the normal one.

Does anybody else face a problem of a laggy front camera using apps like snapchat/messenger/instagram?

Thank you very much for this rom bro
problems are :
The Rom :
- Didn't detect my saved contacts on both sim cards.
- Didn't have the same quality of image but it's not bad.
- The calculator app still more than 1 min to open ( something weird)!
- Battery usage looks perfect !
- The configurations in settings gives a lot of helpful things such as the customization of the notification panel and the power menu !
.
so what i did now is that i rooted with magisk and i installed ( Root explorer R ) pro version and installed ( System apps uninstall ).
i deleted ( Calculator,Camera,browser,messaging,music player,gallery.....etc) then i installed an Alternative for them. so now i have my customized RR V6.2.0
it's awesome with root. But for who installed this rom you can go to settings and find the display PPI ( you will find it about 400ppi ) i changed it up to 424ppi( the original A5 2017 ppi ) and now works perfectly .

Friend I've been with your rom for a few days and it's the BEST ROM OF EVERYTHING! I say this in a matter of customization and having a purest experience that samsung ...
I have an A520F (two-chip model) and both are OK.
The problem is that it has some really annoying bugs as a problem to play media (especially songs that get squeaked and at first I was worried if my headphones had damaged), also has bugs in the camera that seem to limit their quality a lot, bugs in the interface in general that make the device reboot out of nowhere (it happened to me 1 or 2 times during the time I am with the rom on the device [4 days]), bugs on the physical buttons as previously said, among others ... These were the most important bugs I had with rom.
I have some suggestions for interesting implementations to make in the rom like stereo audio (it has this function in Hades), just leave the pixel launcher more notifications optimization on the always on display and one good thing I believe developers should do is provide a form of install a separate galaxy s9 camera package that is present in rom Hades for all roms.
You are doing a good job and good luck for more projects in the future. I'll probably record a YouTube video about your future rom and give you the credits.

Tested, works really well! Good job! Even the battery usage is great. It's smoother compared to 7.1.
As it's pointed out, Gapps breaks RIL. Everything else works except radio and offline charging. Installed Aurora Store and I'm pretty happy with it.
Things I tested:
☑ RIL
☑ Camera Front/Back
☑ Video Recording
☑ Bluetooth
☑ WiFi
☑ Sound
☑ GPS
☑ Calls
☒ Offline Charging, it loops.
☒ Radio, phone freezes.

@notfood
I can confirm your tests, but can you please test Videorecording with 1080p. For me the Video Quality (only with 1080p!) is low, becouse there are randomly White lines from the left to the right in the Video. (Like in all builds after 08/2018)

I see the white lines, they're sporadic but they're there only with 1080p.

HI
My findings so far: All things mentioned above are working for me as well, but with some exceptions:
GPS finds plenty of satelites, but doesn't snap in ( no position..).
Battery- charging freezes once, I had to reboot to go on.
In Whatsapp recorded video-sequences aren't playable ( frozen screen or artefacts..)
I couldn't find any menue to choose the touchscreen - triangles for moving the cursor in a text document.
I'm looking forward the next Version....:fingers-crossed:

Just tested this rom on my GT-I9301I for an hour or so and i have to say that auto-rotation doesn't work sometimes, also i don't know what exactly RIL is but i installed the gapps aroma (customized) and didn't realize any issue related to gapps until now, and also i got a new phone recently so the old phone doesn't have a sim card anymore, and i don't plan to put one on my GT-I9301I, so my old phone is somewhat like a test device now, i have tried some custom roms before but i didn't like them too much, this one doesn't look bad, except i wish you could do something about offline charging.

Error: this package is for device
Thank you for your contribution! I tried to flash it to my GT-I9301I with the help of TWRP 2.8.5.0 (I know its old, is there a better approach?). Before flashing i wiped everything, now when I try to install it from the sdcard it fails with the Error "E3004: This package is for device: s3ve3g, s3ve3gds, s3veg3gjv; this device is ." What am I doing wrong? Why is the installer not recognizing my device?

You have to use a newer Version of TWRP:

I know this is only for the single sim variant, but would this work on a duos without ril at least? I don't really need ril that much right now.

He didn't work he remained stuck
Please Help

Waiting for an edititon for Sony sensor! On Sony sensor not works camera and flashlight, but rom is usable as daily driver.
Auto-rotate is working in YT Vanced and other apps only sometimes.
This is very cool ROM, better than Nougat!

If it gets stuck, you are probably running an outdated firmware. Get the latest from Sammobile or check the Telegram group. You will need Odin or Heimdall to install it. Be careful which firmware you are burning, it can brick your device if it's the wrong one.

For more than an hour it is stuck in the installation screen

thanks, that worked perfect! I also like that encryption works

Just bought my a new Evo 860 ssd so I have enough storage for building multiple devices . So yes more build coming this week for Sony and dual SIM.
My 300gb ssd before didn't quite had enough.

Hi Thargorsson,
First of all. Excellent work on the new ROM!
I have just got a hold of 5x S3 NEO and wished they had a newer version than 4.4.2.
After some searches on Google I found this forum. I'm going to wait until you have an updated version of this ROM.
Please keep us all posted on any progress
Cheers,
Steve
