I read about an omnirom available for our captivate glides running 4.4.2
Anyone tried running this yet? How stable is it?
I found the link here: http://true-android.blogspot.ca/2014/03/update-samsung-captivate-glide-sgh-i927.html
I also dont know, for any rom that has separate gapps, when would you flash those? After or before the new rom? at the same time? Like, if after a ROM flash it automatically reboots, it will boot up with no gapps and likely not run - correct?
Was just curious about how buggy it is. Even if down the road when things are smoother, im excited to see if i can get this one running!

Gapps is included. You must install rom zip first, because it formats system partition.
Official gapps doesnt compatible with our phone, I think its better not installing.
hmm..

I am using omni ROM . . somehow I find it less buggy than cm 11
Nevertheless I would wanna give my thanks and even though I am pointing out bugs . . I really do appreciate his work .. A lot
Omnirom is very very stable has all if not most of the theming features except for trebuchet launcher
//It is a bit more battery consuming but I like it cause I am able to run my processor at 1.4ghz which is sweeeet!!!
//It has issues with OK Google functionality the audio is lagged and irritating
//The Google experience launcher is not built for it
//It has issues with Google maps 7 but there is a fix to have 6th version to back you up when needed
//it has issues with Skype and the fix is work in progress I guess..
//GPs is a bit slow but works
//WiFi direct crashes for me
Once in a blue moon the phone might rebot itself cause of a crash..
Though considering WiFi tethering , 3g switching, link2sd ,memory swapping
Ksm everything is working really try it . . its an amazing experience from an amazing phone
Can someone tell me the difference between wifi direct, wifi sharing, and wifi sharing manager??
Wifi itself is working in 4.4.2 right?
Also, were your keyboard backlights working automatically or did you ened qwerty led?
is qwerty led something that needs to be running all the time. or "ongoing" in the top drawer?
Wi-fi direct is a type of communication between two devices, similar to Bluetooth, so you can send files. I never used this, even when transfering big files from one phone to another, it's better to use an USB OTG cable - the connection speed is lightning fast!
Don't know what you mean about wi-fi sharing. Maybe wi-fi tethering (hotspot) - it's when you share your phone 2G/3G internet connection via wi-fi. This thing is working fine. Wi-fi itself is working, of course.
As for keyboard light: when tested OmniROM, I used liblight solution, but the qwertyled using is simple too: just launch it and you're done. While the service is running, keyboard light will work.
Now I'm on CM 11, and I have 11 days of uptime already, I recommend this ROM (but that's just my taste). In CM 11 keyboard backlights are working from the box, no need for qwertyled.
Also, I looked at the link you posted, to the true-android blog. Please, don't use the guide one can found there, it's awful. You can't install 4.4.2 ROM with recommended 2.6.3.0 TWRP, the correct one is 2.6.3.1 from bubor here, and you don't need any gapps beside included in the ROM.
Better use this guide from stormdude124: [UPDATED][2014][How-to]Everything you need to know and do to your Captivate Glide, it's updated, it's verified and there's no ads!

Can you use a cyanogen mod rom with clockworkmod recovery installed? i remember trying cyanogenmod with my phone and couldnt get it to work.
Just flash TWRP 2.6.3.1 from link above, it's superior to clockworkmod recovery (CWM) in all ways: touch interface, working backups with compression, charging support and it allows to install KitKat roms. With CWM you can install ROMs up to android 4.3, so, you still can install CM 10.1.3 or CM 10.2 with CWM, but not CM 11.
about wifi direct and sharing...

Hey yeah the difference btw wifi direct and sharing is that in wifi direct you connect two devices directly to transfer files...
in wifi sharing you need to host a web adress to share your files
as a result in wifi sharing you host a list of your stuff on a web adress(local) which gets downloaded by other devices on your wifi connection
and a wifi sharing manager can either do this (host ur files using an ip) or my personal favorite is astro which can acess my pc's sharing folder over wifi which is preety awesome>..unlimited storage
also note that in a wifi sharing manager you cannot recieve files easily . . maybe airdroid but it can only run on a pc
wifi sharing apps are airdroid and other file managers like root browser
wifi direct requires specific drivers and libs... i guess.. hence not all devices can do it ..
anyway you should go for cm 11 or omni both are incredibly stable with an occasional hiccup.. which is occasional heh
also would suggest that if you do proceed to install please follow from the developer sources on xda rather than some blog etc

Camera app replacement
Hey guys, thanks for the Carbon Rom - looks real good, is nice & fast.
I have one question.
I've installed Google Camera and I liked it better than default CM one. I tried to freeze CM camera so that Google Camera would be default everywhere, but pressing hardware camera button doesn't work (there is only a one-time vibro, camera doesn't launch, when CM is defrost it launches, obviously).
Is there any way I can set Google Camera to launch via hardware button? I'd like to delete CM camera to keep everything neat & tidy.
Thank you guys in advance!
Problem with Carbon rom
Hi, I'm new at this and I had a problem when I installed your rom on my Xperia S. I managed to root it and install CWM perfectly... But when I flashed your rom, without any problems, and tried to reboot, the phone never rebooted. I just stays with the screen off and when I press the power on button for a while it only vibrates and that's it. I used to have the official Xperia 4.1.2 rom. HELP!!!!
If unlocked bootloader, maybe you should flash tft.
You can have a look at the main thread someone has the same problem....

I think this problem is known.
Which earphones are you using?
I think newer ones are not supported because of missing drivers but i am not sure.
HDMI
Is it hard to make hdmi support? I use 4.1 only for hdmi. There are another 4.4 roms with hdmi, but carbon is best.

Yes it is hard to support hdmi since, afaik, there was no proper support built for it in the sources used by carbon.
build fails on OMX codec
Hi all!
Has anyone tried to build the ROM from sources?.. well I have and it fails while building the obj for OMXCodec --> OMXCodec.cpp:4569 --> frameworks/av/media/libstagefright/OMXCodec.cpp:4569:11: error: 'OMX_AUDIO_PARAM_FLACTYPE' has no member named 'nBitsPerSample'
If anyone met the same problem and fixed it, please share the fix/work-around.
So far i've edited OMX_Audio.h and inserted an OMX_U32 nBitsPerSample var in the OMX_AUDIO_PARAM_FLACTYPE struct.
It compiles on, but i'm not sure this is Ok.
Thanks!

Yeah well I tried to build it too yesterday evening, but I'm not getting any error nor the output zip file! Where did You find the error?
Mmmm... I don't really remember.
I was building the project just like in the 'how to' (I mean literally, step-by-step), and it just crashed at that point.
However, it turns out that there is another external module that is not supported and should not even be in the sources. Let me know if you encounter the same problems.
I have been using this rom for about a month now, good so fare.
But since a couple of days I'm starting to have some bugs (like the music lagging and even stopping when I'm doing other things on my phone) and some lags from time to time. Sometimes it's really smooth, but most of the time it's very slow and not confortable to use.
Any ideas how I could speed it up and make it smoother ? I already overcloked it
help the stock launcher keeps reseting after reboot

Hi,
I'm new here (hallo @all) as I'd like to install CM on my Tab3 8.0" mainly because of the privacy-settings (have to use some apps who requiere more Rights than they need, 3rd-party-tools are not working, but my Xperia running CM can block unnecessary Access-Requests without distrubing the functionality of the App)
So actually I'm not sure if I should give the CM12 a chance (or try CM11) as Images can be found in the Development-Thread...
I'd need following things working:
Wireless
Bluetooth
Frontcamera (for Skype)
SD-Card (as I've read threads mentioning problems with ext. SDCards)
(Video-Playback from DLNA-Sources (and/or from SD-Card) would be great)
and as a must:
Privacy-Settings (readjust app-Entitlements) must be running...
...everything else working is great, of course (especially no big(ger) drain on Batterylife than with stockROM)...
...reading this - which ROM would you recommend me?
Shall I give gr8nole's CM12 a chance or are other Images more suitable for my requirements?
Thanks for your answers and sorry if I should have posted in the wrong Section...
Cheers,
the unlucky

If you want everything to work AND to have the ability to adjust app permissions, you should give my NoleKat rom a try. I have enabled the App Ops feature in settings.

Hi gr8nole,
found the Thread for NoleKat - looks intresting and I'll give it a try, thanks
(also thanks for the whole development you put into the firmwares!)

This is my first time to root a tablet. I have successfully rooted my Samsung Galaxy tab 3 7 (SM-T210R). But know I dont know were to go from here. I see posted about removing bloats from the system, and overclocking but not sure what I should do. Any suggestions, I was leaning toward installing CM11 but have not took that leap yet.
Thanks gr8nole for the hours you have spent programing for us novice guys.
I've made a Build for one of the older Xperia device. I compiled AOSP 7.0 and it does work well.
I have few Questions.
1. I want to add and remove some apps (.apk) to/from the build and I don't know how to do it. Googled and found a solution but it didn't worked. (placing apk somewhere with .mk file)
2. Also I want to provide USB OTG support to the device. Where should i look for this? Any location or something.
(OTG works if external power supply is provided)
3. And if I changed some of things of an app from the build, do i need to compile=>build=>flash and check weather it worked or not? or i do it with ADB kind of stuff? If yes, can i know the detail steps?
ANY kind of help will be appreciated.
Hi there,
Thanks for your work, but we need more info about your device are you talking about.
Good luck

It is Xperia ACRO S. Its final official update was Jelly Bean.
Hi everyone!
This is just my corner where I drop the builds of Lineage-15.1 that I personally use. They do contain a few smaller customisations, like a custom kernel and other goodies that I personally need. I'm posting this here in case somebody finds them to be useful.
Nooby Disclaimer:
I'm not a developer and just because I've got a thread here, doesn't mean I fully know what I'm doing when modding or building ROMs. What I publish is used by myself personally and thereby tested as daily driver. If something still breaks and your phone doesn't survive the smoke test, that's your problem and not mine.
Builds will mostly cater towards my needs if I have any special wishes with the hopes that the changes are useful or interesting for someone else as well (won't be too deep changes I think).
Some info/bugs specific to this build:
SELinux defaults to permissive
Make sure you tell OpenGapps to keep LineageOS Snap installed, Google Camera crashes.
Fails SafetyNet Test, don't use if you need that to verify.
OTA Support (Can somebody confirm that it works?.). The Updater should notify you of a new version.
Other than that, there's not much to say about it. It's LineageOS 15.1, what more could you wish for?

I'm going to ignore the passive-aggressiveness and just go ahead and argue that with time that my builds will deviate a tiny bit from vanilla Lineage here and there, be it only tiny tweaks and goodies like Pixel Navbar, kernel with Kali Nethunter support and OTA support. Besides, I wouldn't expect a 14.1 thread to contain Lineage15.1, now would I? Fss.

No need to get snippy. Just commenting that I've been running builds for weeks now bringing up 15.1, and there's 40+ people in the hangouts group I made. I can't stop you from releasing builds or building from my sources (and nor do I care to), just letting you know that it's incorrect to say nobody's been building unofficials.
Sorry, I do apologise, but your comment did sound passive-aggressive even after reading over it multiple times. My point still stands though.

Not sure what you are asking, but I had to override the build type branding to NIGHTLY in order to have the OTA server working. Just flash it over the old version. If you're using twrp and it doesn't want to flash, I'll have a Lineage recovery here, flashing that and then flashing the update using the lineage recovery always worked for me. http://tf2glados.dynv6net:8080/LineageRecovery/
Otherwise, just update TWRP. I tried it with the latest TWRP version just now and it works.

Hello, thank you for working on this.
I flashed it yesterday and had an issue with mounting USB to my windows computer.
It worked on the first boot, and I was able to pull down the notification bar and tell it to transfer files. However on subsequent boots it did not give me such an option, although rebooting to recovery with the cable plugged in the same way mounted the device in my computer.

I haven't had any issues with that and I wouldn't consider it a build-specific bug, but I might be able to help you anyway. Plug in the phone, go to developer options and tap on "Select USB Configuration" and set it to MTP. That mostly fixes hiccups with USB modes for me. Otherwise, try replacing the cable if you're using the original Nextbit one that came with it. Mine became really unreliable soon after buying the phone, so I replaced it with a better (USB 3.1, even) cable and now it just works.

I'll rebuild when I get home, so that will include this fix.
Short note here, my Raspi server died on me again, so sorry for the dead links again. Buuut I'll be home soon, so I can get around fixing the Pi and the downloads will be up again just in time for a new build.
Enjoying the new build so far! Pretty good for me.
