Hello everyone, I haven't compiled a Rom from source before, but I have spent like 5 hours researching and watching videos and going through the CM wiki, now I feel pretty confident in trying it.
I have a Find 7 QHD X9076, I will start working on this tomorrow.
I am just wondering if anyone would be interested in testing it?
Also does anyone know where I can get the proprietary blobs from, I could extract them from the current CM builds, but I'm
sure those are for the 7A.
If anyone knows where I could get it from then that would help me a lot.
Let me know your thoughts
PS if this actually works, ill probably consider looking into optimizations and features rather than just a dedicated CM11 build for the X9076
Sounds great! Do you have a X9076 yourself?

I would recommend to test build SlimROM insted. Comming from Galaxy S4 and I think SlimROM was the most stable/best rom.

Yeah, I have a the international QHD version, there isnt a lot of support at the moment so I thought it have a crack at it, also considering a stock rom with performance enhances instead as there is already a CM nightly, but then again thats for the 7a.

I'm not really sure what I'm going to compile yet, I know they already have a nightly, but there are a world of issues for the QHD version as those nightly builds are for the 7a, so I was thinking about building for the QHD instead.

HELP!
Can anyone help me get the proprietary files for the X9076 version? I know I can install CM11 and extract them, but will those files work if I build from SlimRom? or is there another way I can obtain them?
you didn't hear this from me:
github.com/themuppets - CM
github.com/donkeycoyote - Omni
Omni won't work on the QHD Find7 yet, if you decide to try and get it running, you will, at a minimum, have to fix the display panel reset GPIO code.
https://github.com/omnirom/android_...mmit/59223a3e64565bcfa13bfd3b58fc676128d02ca7 - this was only done for the 7a and still needs to be done for the 7, but so far no one has a device to try and fix that stuff up.

Thanks for this I will look into it, unfortunately I have a terrible internet connection and until I find somewhere that I can download the setup files, I wont be able to move forward, 15GB download would take me like 3 weeks

You might have to up your internet first.
But count me in if you are creating a stock based ROM. I'll gladly help you test it.

I know how you can get an Android M Developer Preview on the Nexus 7 2013!!!!
Just download the files ( https://android.googlesource.com/device/asus/flo/+/refs/tags/android-m-preview ) and do what you would do to make a regular factory image!! My laptop can't do this stuff so if someone reads this please download it and make a ROM and a factory image.

1. This is the wrong place to post this kind of stuff...
2. It's not even possible to use this because Google hasn't posted the full Android M source so we can only see what has been changed so far.
I don't know where else to post it, because this is the "Development" category and this is basically telling you developing
Also the Android M Developer Preview for Nexus 7 2013 has the same amount of files as the one for the Nexus 6, if not more.
It doesn't matter how many files it has. They haven't released the source code so you can't do anything with it.

I know it doesn't matter how many files, but they do have AOSP out for it. It's worth a shot to try it and see
If the thing I'm asking for can't be done, then can someone do a port? I'd really love to try M. I don't have the money for a Nexus 9 or a Nexus Player, and I just got my TURBO in February so I can't get a new phone for a couple of years

Maybe we could use that to help port it to the Nexus 7 2013

So you want someone to work hard (very hard) to try and port a broken rom just so you can see m? Yeah we are going to line up to do it for you. Lol. Might be time for you to learn some basic Android development and porting.

It looks really fake...
No..it's a fake..when you try to download the rom from the link in the description, you will find surveys..anywhere, umeaboy was working on a cyano for edge plus..but anything yet.
I'm tired of touchwiz roms..i really want to try aosp!
I think it's a fake
They got cm13 booting up over in the note 5 forums... it works on edge plus but the navbar and capacitive buttons don't work with our s6 edge plus
Yes..i've found a build on the note 5 forum, it may works on edge plus, the bugs are:
No camera
Youtube videos not works
Text messages causes reboot
I can't live without camera, so i'll flash this rom as a secondary rom, with the dual boot app..now i'm not at home...later i'm going to download it and try it..
I'll keep you updated!
Bye
If we can get a proper kernel working on it with our device it should be a decent tester
Ok..installed as a primary rom..dual boot is not working.
The rom seems to be working, but..there are a lot of bugs..of course.
Not a daily drive, but just this, it's another step.
I forgot that you can't play your music..if you try to riproduce a song with a music player, or simply a file manager, your phone will reboot.
Remember, if you want to try it..you have to flash cm and then, without reboot the system, flash the gapps, wipe cache e dalvik, and reboot.
Keep it in mind, you can't use it as a daily drive.
Sorry for my bad english, i'm italian.
Goodnight friends!

Now i'm returning to river rom...happy for tested this first aosp build, i hope that someone will work on a good kernel and fix the various bug.
Anyway...the aosp experience mixed with the dual edge display is very cool!
Really wish there was an identifiable community for any AOSP on our device :/
i wish there was ubuntu or debian, even maemo/meego will do , android is so one sided and borring

I honestly can't grasp why we do not have the availability of Ubuntu Touch on these devices.
The Meizu Pro 5 came with an Ubuntu Touch model on the idenical Soc/Specs.
I agree all too well about one sidedness, especially putting up with samsung >.<
honestly, samsungs are nice devices but they start to be like apple , i mean locked on every aspect, no mods, people give up on these devices of samsng bcuz the stupid xynos cpu or w/e since samsung dont release the codes to make a custom rom like s3 with archidroid/debian , seriously samsungis gonna lose its custommers if they keep this up

But obviously they released enough to Meizu for them to release a slew of AOSP on the Exynos7420 SoC, like literally

CM13/14 was available for download, not sure how that's going currently.
But i just can't grasp why we aren't seeing any love on the other side?

most likely because galaxy s8 is already coming ,and so no use in continueing s6 witch is 2 generations lower, samsung release phones to fast to keep up with apple, witch i so dislike apple ****

Agreed, its just so sad to realize if I want anything actually custom on this thing I either have to put in some hrs of work, & have a wicked internet connection.
Or purchase from Asia for the same SoC from a different manufacturer :/
I like to share two links:
https://basketbuild.com/devs/ripee/gts210wifi
Here you find Ripee's unofficial lineage 14. The rom haven't got a thread but it is working great. I didn't test it all, but haven't found any bugs after using a few weeks. It is literally a nightly, every day a new build (but there aren't always changes (see size of the file). But it remains smooth. And Netflix is working!
https://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-s2/help/netflix-hd-tab-s2-t3274295/post64388574
Here is how to get Netflix working in HD (the Netflix app doesn't recognize our tab as HD by default). You can rebuild the apk yourself or use the rebuild apk from Jens1969. After the update from Netflix, he share's his rebuilded apk. Find his latest post in the thread.
I build for gts210wifi daily because that's the tablet I have an I'm too impatient to wait a week for official builds. I haven't created my own thread since there is no need to create more than one thread for unofficial builds if official builds are available. Netflix works in my builds because I've kept T_I's original fix from way back when (see my github), which he abandoned on gerrit on the grounds of its being "inelegant". As a user, I don't care whether it's elegant or not, I care that it works! This fix is a silver bullet: it restores the functionality of a very popular app without having any effect on the other functions of the tablet.
If there is interest in the other variants of the 2015 Tab S2, I will build them. Right now I'm trying to figure out how to fix the bluetooth, mic, and fingerprint problems of the gts28wifi. Since only the 9.7 ones have official builds, I may also start building daily for gts28wifi and gts28ltexx.
On a related matter, we have official TWRP for all 4 variants and the latest bootloaders and modems for all 4 in my BL_CP folder on BasketBuild.
Thanks for the heads-up on this. I was wondering why Netflix wasn't even showing itself as available to me on Lineage official 14.1 and found this pointer.
I used the most recent apk from Jens and am able to run NF again.
I don't know how to get proof of HD quality....

Cuz it's "options".. No one can say "why not this/that one..??" Now ppl have a selection to see for themselves, find out which one they like or prefer.. How many other devices have such a large selection? Not many, if any besides maybe the Warp Sync N9515 have as many ROM options.. Some will stay updated, depending on the ROM teams, many won't. So from here the question becomes: Which do ya like the most?? I'm finding new ROMs here and there, each with it's own tweaks and benefits. Most we wouldn't have known about cuz most ppl just build the same 5 ROMs per device.. Just throwing it all out there
I tried out Orion and I'm really loving the performance of it. ONLY thing I wish it had was to move the Recent list "clear all" button to the bottom to be always visible. Suppose there is no way without having another ROM that offers that to get it? I chose Orion because it seemed to be the most tweaked and had newer commits to it. Battery is great and it is way snappier than stock.

Thanks bro! Yes, I am/was a musician but those days are few and far between anymore. Is there something wrong with the PayPal link? I'll check it out. And thanks again for the kind words, I agree with ya on the ridiculous data issues, they eat us up like crazy! The hotspot is a very much big deal for me too as my device is usually my only internet out in the woods so I try to make sure it's 100%, Lol.
Sent from my Moto E (4) Plus using Tapatalk
Well the hotspot on Hexagon; i don't think is fixed because it allowed me to use my 8GB and i had to start using bluetooth for the time being. maybe i can flash another one and it'll work again. also, i don't know if its your rom or not because i didn't manage to get past the bug but, i wanted to try crdroid or whatever it was called. the one with the egyptian eye symbol, but anyway, during the setup process of that rom, it had some kind of little loop going on. right at the beginning, it asks if you want to restore your apps or something, ya know? and then so i'll put yes, from a google account; etc and no matter what route i take from there it leads me back to the first setup screen where you choose language.
it's a clean flash, wiped everything, and installed the rom, then open_gapps aroma, boots up fine, but the setup is jacked up. i tried it twice, but i didn't really go through any serious troubleshooting steps, i just flashed on a clean wipe, then flashed it right back over itself, thinking maybe a file was corrupt or something like that. got the same result twice, and i just restored my aosp extended install because i was having withdrawal symptoms from spotify. i don't really dig hexagon, so i guess i will give crdroid another shot and see how it behaves this time.
oh maybe i should mention, i didn't use this crdroid link, i used one that i found in your androidfilehost account under this device. i never looked to see if this one's newer, so maybe that explains it?

i also was disappointed by tipsy sadly. i've been a pretty big advocate of people using tipsy rom for a few years, since i tried it on my moto e lte phone back then, it's really a pretty clean distro. unfortunately, the one ported over in this post doesn't seem have any fingerprint scanning functionality in it, so that kind of chaps my satchel. didn't really like viper either. i'll try 'em all eventually, probably. i'm a compulsive flasher. i may need to update my titanium backup or something though, i haven't been able to restore accounts/data usage on any of these 7.1 roms so far. kinda sucks putting all that in manually because i have very secure passwords that i can't memorize very easily. the wifi passcodes and known networks restores, as well as my bluetooth pairings.

Well the hotspot on Hexagon; i don't think is fixed because it allowed me to use my 8GB and i had to start using bluetooth for the time being. maybe i can flash another one and it'll work again. also, i don't know if its your rom or not because i didn't manage to get past the bug but, i wanted to try crdroid or whatever it was called. the one with the egyptian eye symbol, but anyway, during the setup process of that rom, it had some kind of little loop going on. right at the beginning, it asks if you want to restore your apps or something, ya know? and then so i'll put yes, from a google account; etc and no matter what route i take from there it leads me back to the first setup screen where you choose language.
it's a clean flash, wiped everything, and installed the rom, then open_gapps aroma, boots up fine, but the setup is jacked up. i tried it twice, but i didn't really go through any serious troubleshooting steps, i just flashed on a clean wipe, then flashed it right back over itself, thinking maybe a file was corrupt or something like that. got the same result twice, and i just restored my aosp extended install because i was having withdrawal symptoms from spotify. i don't really dig hexagon, so i guess i will give crdroid another shot and see how it behaves this time.

You're OK, it's great to hear feedback and I thank you. Yes, sometimes I have a cpl different versions of ROMs in AFH and indeed, did update it from v3.8.8 to v3.8.9. I change my DL links in my AndroidForums threads.. Not everything I upload to afh is recommended for flashing because some are experimental or have issues I haven't worked out so plz be careful, Lol.
Also, I've never had much success with aroma gapps on this device so I stuck with a smaller one like Nano gapps, plus I set every ROM flash up as a new device. Then usually DL everything else a bit later after a reboot or two (but that's me)
i wonder if aroma gapps had something to do with my call screen error. the other day, i think my dialer app vanished or something crazy because whenever i'd recieve a phone call; i had no way of answering it unless i was using a bluetooth device at the time, but i never saw the 'in-call' screen at any point. also, i couldn't call out either. it would start the call, because i'd see my signal icon change to something else, and the only response i could get from the call i was in is a popup that said something about "return to call in progress" but didn't return me to it. i tried a lot of stuff with the google dialer software, because i assumed it was an issue with that. i ended up just dumping that and trying tipsy and hexagon and viper at that point.

have you tried restoring a TWRP backup on this device yet? i've only restored a backup of AOSPEX, but when it's through and android finally boots back up to the lock screen, whatever type of screen lock i have on the phone is changed so that i am forced to factory reset my restored backup. lol
like i said, i haven't restored any other roms, but it does it with AOSPEX every single time. if i have a fingerprint, my fingerprints won't work. if it's a pattern, the pattern has changed, and same with a PIN as well. i've never seen that one before but it was so odd that i didn't even really get upset, i sort of found it amusing.

I read somewhere that it's part of a security feature of FRP (Factory Reset Protection) in all N+ ROMs and ya have to go to each ROM ya used and added a fingerprint lock, then remove the F-print. Always remove the stored prints before switching to a different ROM/OS

To fix your phone issue go to Settings>Apps>"Gear Icon">Phone App and select your current dialer.
What happens is if the dialer included in the ROM is replaced by gapps the new dialer isn't set as your default dialer. The ROM can't find the old dialer anymore so it just doesn't show anything.

i actually figured this one out a couple days later, while i was just browsing to see if it was missing some permissions, but thank you at any rate. good tip. it seems like if you back off of the scene for a little while, it's a little rough trying to relearn all the things that have been changed in android. i have been using an older moto e (the 2015 LTE model) for probably three or four years, and then onto a samsung j3 which was awful. so a lot of procedure and stuff like systemless modifications has changed. what happened to xposed man? lol

Xposed became an inherent & near guaranteed SafetyNet check fail so almost all ROMs removed it from source to reduce the bug posts caused by Xposed.. Since it can still be installed with a flashable zip and Magisk also has a systemless version Xposed to help reduce SafetyNet fails. MoKee ROM still had it built-in until recently and I'll be updating.. LOS, AOKP, MoKee, and something else as soon as I finish figuring out how to totally unbrick my owens. Had it booting from an sdcard the other day and messed something else up so I'm back to square 1 for the moment. Me, @SuperR. and our ole buddy goose03 trying to help make a fastboot flashable FW for 44-12 to finish the unbrick job. If Moto had this already available, our work would be cut in half, Lol. It's going slow but we're trying since more ppl need this than just us and it'd be a great help to the community.
So y'all swing by @SuperR. 's Kitchen threads and tell him thank you for his work, cuz without his kitchen we'd probably not have even gotten this far. He has 2 versions, free and Donate ($15) but the Donate version excels in capabilities, options, has many plugins and the Donate version is what I use.
