[Q] [Suggestion] Cyanogenmod 7 for the Y

As you know sir Vivek is busy as well sir Maroc but I have an idea but I don't have that much knowledge about porting etc.. So I want some help
As you know sir Vivek got some builds that were booting up he makes it from source. But some users uploaded some patches to make wifi, BT work etc.
I know this idea will be a build not 100% from source but: If we pick a booting build from Vivek and apply or make some patches (like some users already did) Can't we get a more stable built then for daily use ??

if you want a device with absolutely original cyanogenmod support then go on their website and see what is supported and then you can choose better, but I find the mini at least not well.for me this device sux.

Well, I would like a Galaxy S2 but the price x.X because I'm saving money for a new PC I really need a new one my laptop died and now I'm running a 2004 Pentium 4 computer slow !! Otherwise I already bought a Galaxy SII ^^. And about the Mini I saw in some video's on youtube that the screen quality is bad compared to the Y

in video quality there is only 6 ppi difference
pratically its nothing

viveks work doesn't work at all...if you want to start, you can try with the one razor has uploaded or joyos.

gps,wifi,and other stuff can be fixed but the major problem is graphics, we don't have graphics drivers for broadcom, sgy sucks really bad and all dev are tired with this device.
as OP said we can try to make a cm7 for sgy from vivek's source build but it will have the greenish graphics problem afaik

If I'm not mistaken, our port attempt is comes from ace. the graphic driver is working but we still have that greenish colour. based on this fact there's a possibility that we could use the graphic driver from ace's source.

yeap ace and some other devices have broadcom board but they also have separate graphics chip like adreno 200 or so, and this is where sgy lacks

the graphic chip might different but as you can see in those port attempt the driver are working on our graphic chip. the dev are complaining that they could find the one for sgy but as I've said they can try to use the one from ace.

This can be a stupid question but why can't they port the graphics driver from stock rom then ?

i Think,you are talking too much, (broadcom board?)+adreno200 (Qualcomm)???
Dont say shi*

I think they use to port but now they have started working from source.Though raspberry pi is a different architecture,they are using same gpu,and even broadcom is helping them.Fk them .When something is cheap,,there is always a catch.

[Q] Does this phone really worth buying?

Hello guys,
I'm as of now an iPhone 5 user and my parents have took my phone away because i was using it "too much" for about 5 months ago. Today, me and my parents were in an electronic shop and we've been looking for some phones for my grands. Then my mom just randomly said, that she will be using my iPhone 5 as shes normal phone and she offered me a deal, i would still have the iPhone 5 which i can't use much, OR if i'll consider about the S3 Mini or the Xperia M. So here's my question, does the Xperia M worth? Are there many ROMs? Do the features are almost same as in iPhone 5? Does CM11 lags really much or bugs? Is the multitasking good as in iPhone? Can the phone be good in hardware for about next 3-4 years? Therefore, thanks to all who can answer me those questions.

This phone can pretty much fill all your needs. There are almost nil bugs in CM11 and it doesn't lagg! Multitasking is 200% better than the iPhone :silly: You can always peep in the Development and Original Development section for roms there are a variety of AOSP Roms as well as Stock based roms!
In terms of hardware for the next 3-4 years the phone is packed with a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processor along with Adreno 305 which runs almost any game or heavy app without lagg (Even Facebook :victory: :silly
Tho I won't give you wrong info about the phone.. It would heat a bit but not so much. For minimal use and just multitasking its a great phone and I totally recommend you to buy it! :highfive::laugh::fingers-crossed:

I love Sony for their responsive UI and the never before experience they give who have got their new first xperia device! Samsung packs in a lot of apps that are not needed in daily activities and stuff we usually do on phone!
Also, Sony is not predictable like Samsung is for example was the Xperia M 4.3 update expected?
Hope the above links help ^^ :fingers-crossed:

Well, it's 50:50 for me. Looking on ROMs for both of the devices, just a question, is the community for Xperia M big?

Seeing upto Facebook yeah looks like it's very big but I really don't know how many from the "11K" members group really own an Xperia M!

Based on my research on google, i see that the specs are similar to each other, but:
If you looking for more performance and multitasking, choose Xperia M :victory:
If you looking for a phone with strong display (Gorilla Glass), choose S3 Mini. :fingers-crossed:
Anyway, the choose is still depend on you. Good luck!

Guys, just another question, will be there more ROMs for this device? Like, i couldn't find MIUI, Lewa or something like that? Thx for reply again

Probably there will be more roms, just wait and see. But In my opinion cm11 is quite good custom rom for our device.

And how about themed custom ROMs? (Touchwiz, HTC Sence etc.) Or it is possible to port ROMs from the S3 Mini?

Is there a seperate thread fr the 2 gb variant of zenfone 2

is there going to be a seperate thread fr the 2 gb variant of this device and will the roms that r gonna be made fr 4 gb variant will be ported to 2 gb variant too?

Dont worry. Why do you think they wont make a rom for 2gb version?

dude i just got this device a weak ago and i m in love with it...since i found no seperate section for 2 gb variant and people have been talking about mostly 4 gb version..it made me wonder if development was gonna happen fr this device too..?

They are the same device. We dont need separate thread. It doesnt matter what CPU it has or how much RAM is in it. They are all ZE551ML model.

before buying this i was told by many people and it was written at many forums that only the flagships evices with snapdragon chipset are biggest recipient of all the development, and devs usually dont like compiliing roms on intel based cpu devices.hence zenfone 2 might never recience any cynogen or aosp based roms ..is it ture?...i rooted my previous xperia deivce and installed a couple of roms and kernels so i have a fair idea of how this all works but i m still kinda noob to all this...

Cm12 rom is being build right now and someone is making a kernel. Remeber other phones cant run win7 or 8 so smooth.

I think he is talking about the 2 gb ram version.m not aware..of bootloader status but its just that most of discussion here is bein done about 4 gb ram version..so i just have feeling that we might not get any rom ported fr 2gb version..i am not a dev myself..so i have a humble request to all devs to port roms made fr 4gb version on 2 gb version as well thank you..the present stock rom has severe memory leak problem..

Well there are 2 versions of 4gb version. 1,8Ghz and 2,3ghz cpu. I dont think there would be such a problem to do a bit of code to make it work on 2gb of ram.

As a 2gb ZE551ML owner, I can assure you that we don't have anything to worry about us being supported. Same for the ZE550ML and ZE500CL especially, it may seem all the focus is on the highest spec models but we're all Zenfone 2 owners in the end.
This is how all new non-nexus devices have to start out until we can reach that adequate balance between models. Remember the saying, "Be together, not the same."

The ZE551ML exists in 3 configuration ...
2gb/1.8GHz
4gb/1.8GHz (mine)
4gb/2.3GHz
which are basically all the same phone! Kernels, ROMS and recoveries run on all the same!
The ZE550ML has also an unlocked bootloader (don't know about 550CL ... why made asus so damn many versions?!? )
And even the 550ML/CL are nearly the same. So nobody has to worry about not getting anything. When the Kernels etc are stable enough, somebody will port them to the other devices.
The people porting CM12.1 to our device are working pretty hard as far as i can tell (multiple commits a day on github).
What i really want to say with this is ... give it some time. The phone is pretty new and we have devs that are working on it :good:

ur reply gave me some hope...when I got this device I was worried that since it uses intel cpu its not gonna have many roms or kernel built fr it...but seeing the devs working so hard and community so active ..its only a matter of time

I am a 2gb base model owner and I can test to receiving all the same updates as the high end model. We are all treated as equals when it comes to updates and updates have been very frequent and this is extremely impressive when compared to the other smart phone manufacturers.

P2 - Worth buying?

I have some questions plz answer these -
1. Does it have 2.5 D glass
2. How good is the display i.e. are blacks deep like Samsung phones considering it has an amoled display
3. How is the build quality?Had any scratches
4. How good is development for this phone ,I mean I have Mi4 and still is well developed Can I expect these to be developed for at least 2 - 3 years.
5.Is camera that bad ?

1. No.
2. IMO yes.
3. Superb. No wiggle room anywhere.
4. TBH quite bad at the moment compared to other devices. It seems like progress is being made although very slowly. The stock ROM is decent enough to warrant using it in the meantime though.
5. It's bad. God... So bad.

The display is amazing, i didn't want to purchase another Amoled screen ever again since the Samsung Galaxy Nexus but this phone is worth it.
Even though the build is great with an all metal build.. you should still get a case and screen protector to keep it shiny.
I'm sure development will get much better, there is no rush. After reading around the forums it seems the Roms are usable.. but hey.. it is a lot better than the Dev for the Zenfone Max. They have troubles with no offline charging and phone doesn't turn on when battery reach 0%, so users have to keep it above 5% in order to not semi brick it. This device don't have those bugs.. so that's good. :laugh:
Also another good thing is that they have numerous Roms and am glad that they update the Lineage 13 Roms too, but Stock Rom is just as fine.
Until Lenovo fully stops updating soon; probably by September 2018.. using Custom Roms would be ideal to update when it happens. That would be my suggestion.

Hey, Thanks bro
But I think Redmi note 4 which retails as same price has many more developers and roms and much more engagement.Thats why I am a little worried to buy this.Here I saw just 2 developers doing all the work.I respect their work.But still we are here lacking kernels etc.
Do u think lenovo will continue providing updates till September 2018.I don't think so.

From a technical perspective it seems like a great device indeed. But you are correct. Moto & Redmi (I guess Huawei too) are more widely-spread. However (speaking for me and the local market) compared to the best available version of Moto G5, this phone has slightly better technical specifications (+1gb ram) for the same price.
Dude, I really hope, that I will enjoy this phone as much as my old G2 and my ancient Galaxy S. :fingers-crossed:

I just realized this phone has a mediatek...

Mmmh ok this phone has a mediatek processor ... nothing against it but ....will we see ROMs in the future ? Kernels ? Is it even possible with mediatek processors ? I read that will probably never see a good version of gcam :c

Developers are working on it.. Hopefully they will develop a stable gcam for RN8Pro soon.

8 or 10 devices have been sent to developers from xiaomi i think the development is already growing almost daily something else has been developed. Kernel source code has been released ( partial from what i read ) and as far as Gcam it's pretty much already out but not 100% yet. This must have been a impulse buy for you not to know it was running a mediatek Soc. Be patient dev is under way just takes time.

More than a impulse buy was a "crap ! I need a phone hey look ! a Xiaomi store.. hi what's your best .. (looking in my wallet) ..200 euros phone ?
Anyway would be pretty entertaining seeing ROMs kernels & co for a mediatek device

I came from a huawei 8x as a work phone because my note 9 is too big and my xiaomi mi mix 3 is too easy to get dirty because of its slider front. Iv'e had a few mediatek powered devices and they was nothing great but i thought i'd give this a try. Things are taking off with this phone it's cheap enough and its got everything you could want. LMAO i thought it had a amoled screen myself so i'm guilty of being confused ( the umigidi X has the amolled screen not the redmi ) i got confused between the 2. Overall i'm happy with the RN8 pro works perfect.

Software ...well it's MIUI 10 ... screen is good the brightness is ok sometimes I don't know why it randomly turn it all the way down but I think is a software problem .... God is ok signal is ok ...battery ...I reach 6-7 h of screen and I was 20%

Works good battery is real good, it's fast and smooth, the screens pretty good I run dark mode so it looks good. In my work place steel building it works very well as far as reception, wifi works really good, the audio is loud to the point it distorts, but in all it's very fluid not buggy at all. I just seen on Reddit there's a snapdragon 730 redmi note 8 pro coming out. SD 730 isn't a great processor so I don't get why they'd change it up.

Thank you both! i will wait a bit to see if the 730G phone is actually a SD version of this phone
