[ROM] [GSM] CM7 Gingerbread Beta 2012-02-19

Hi everyone,
First, read the readme.txt in the zip file.
You flash it at your own risk. Backup everything. Learn how to use Heimdall. If it eats your dog it's not my problem . Many things are broken - post about it in the thread if nobody posted before. If you have any idea how to fix things, post too or PM me.
Requirements: GSM (Euro, US ATT/TMO tabs), with JQ1 (Gingerbread) unprotected bootloaders that can run Euro JQ1 ROM and gt-p1000_mr.pit partitioning.
Modem versions:
ATT: use I9000UGJK3 modem (this is what I am using)
TMO: try JK5
Euro: reports say that JK5, JPZ modems work
HK: user reports JK5 modem works.
CDMA: This ROM does not support CDMA Tabs.
LTN: experimental kernel included.
The archive with the build with Heimdall is here http://gtab7.nexus-lab.com/cm7sgt/tcm7beta-2012-08-05.zip
Please use heimdall to install. This zip file is not for flashing with CWM. Unzip and read the readme.txt in the zip file. Flash using the Heimdall command line (below).
The update zip for CWM is here http://gtab7.nexus-lab.com/cm7sgt/cm-7-20120805-UNOFFICIAL-galaxytab.zip, (GSM only, no LTN), please be sure to flash it from recovery that supports EXT4 or flash it once so it updates kernel/recovery, reboot to new recovery and flash it again. If you encounter any problems, use the Heimdall version.
P1000L/N
There is experimental P1000L kernel and bootloaders included in LTN directory in Heimdall package. It should work on P1000L and maybe P1000N.
Big thanks to Humberos for patches and testing. Adventureous souls with Latin Tabs please try it and report how it worked for you. You should have Gingerbread bootloaders and partitioning done first, so it should be easy if you are already running Gingerbread on your P1000L/N.
Installation using Heimdall
normal update from previous CM7 version, or a flash from another Gingerbread ROM:
Code:
heimdall flash --kernel zImage --factoryfs factoryfs.ext4
full flash and repartition:
Code:
heimdall flash --repartition --pit gt-p1000_mr.pit --primary-boot boot.bin --secondary-boot sbl.bin --kernel zImage --factoryfs factoryfs.ext4 --cache cache.ext4 --dbdata dbdata.ext4
Please be careful and double check your Heimdall command line when you flash bootladers, you may brick your Tab pretty bad.
If you get stuck on first reboot after install, or your settings aren't saved it means your data partitions need to be reformatted to ext4. This should be handled by setup_fs in init.rc.
If it didn't happen, start adb and run
make_ext4fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
make_ext4fs /dev/block/stl10
make_ext4fs /dev/block/stl11
Or try full wipe in recovery.
make_ext4fs is slightly wonky so you could use "/system/bin/mke2fs -t ext4 -m 0" instead (recovery is also using make_ext4fs internally to wipe partitions)
Samsung apps, Swype, Gapps etc
This is an unofficial port of CyanogenMod. I am striving to give us the pure CyanogenMod experience on Galaxy Tab.
So, there are no Samsung apps and don't ask for them.
There is no TouchWiz and don't ask for it.
It comes with ADW Launcher and if you want anything else, there is plenty of launchers in the Market.
If you want Google Apps, get it from the usual place http://goo-inside.me/gapps/ and install from recvery after flashing update.zip. The Heimdall version has Gapps integrated right now.
There is one stupid annoyance on Google sign-in welcome screen. It asks to slide open the keyboard (which we don't have and for now I can't find this setting). So skip the whole set up and sign in to Google account from Settings->Accounts&Sync.
Swype: there is no Swype. Since Swype has a policy of allowing Swype on modded ROMs as long as the original ROM had Swype integrated, if somebody cares to make flashable zip with Swype I can link it from OP.
Market issues.
Market 3.x has much stricter rules about DPI and device checks. So very often it shows apps as not compatible with CM7 on GalaxyTab.
Just go to Settings->Applications and uninstall updated Market it will go back to 2.x for a while.
Or try tool like OldMarket http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1240344
You can also change build.prop yourself, you will need to change two lines:
ro.build.tags=test-keys to ro.build.tags=release-keys
and
ro.sf.lcd_density=200 ro.sf.lcd_density=240
reboot, delete Market data from Settings->Applications
Big thanks to junkshow for investigating it.

How to report bugs
If you think you have found a bug.
- verify you can repeat it, make sure it is not caused by the fact you did not wipe the device by rebooting to recovery and using wipe when you first installed CM7. Particularly when coming from other ROMs that use ext4. When coming from RFS your partitions should have been reformatted on first boot but wiping after install will not hurt.
Please read existing open and already closed issues at http://github.com/cm7sgt/android_device_samsung_galaxytab/issues
If your bug is new.
Please see if it is upstream (general CM7 not related to Tab) bug, see in CM7 issues tracker http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/list
If it is already there, please stop or add a comment there.
If the bug is about generic issue, please try to verify it it also happens on other CM7 devices. If so, you should post it in CyanogenMod issues.
If the bug is Galaxy Tab specific, like, some hardware functionality is missing, some driver not working. Dialogs messed up because of resolution etc, this means it belongs to Galaxy Tab device issue tracer and I can fix it.
In this case please open new issue here http://github.com/cm7sgt/android_device_samsung_galaxytab/issues
Please use pastie.org or something like that for posting logs.
SDCARD controversy
By default, the real micro SD is /mnt/sdcard, the internal mmc is /mnt/sdcard/external_sd, like in Galaxy S CyanogenMod builds.
If you don't like it, you can swap the devices, go to Settings -> CyanogenMod settings -> Application and check Use internal storage [ ] checkbox.
Reboot, now internal will be /mnt/sdcard, external will be /mnt/sdcard/external_sd like in Samsung's Android.
In recovery, real sdcard in /sdcard, internal sdcard (embedded MMC) is /emmc.
If you want to flash zip from /emmc just go in recovery "install zip from sdcard" -> "choose zip from internal sdcard" -> choose whatever you want to flash.

How to build CYanogenMod 7 for Galaxy Tab GT-P1000
First, please read this article http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Compile_CyanogenMod_for_CaptivateMTD
You will need the same prerequisites.
Then
Get repo as described there. I put mine in /usr/local/bin
Sync Android tree. You need to use manifest from cm7sgt github.
(If you have more/less than 4 cores modify your -j4 accordingly)
Create a directory for your Android, you will need oer 10GB of free space. It helps a lot to put it on SSD.
repo init -u git://github.com/cm7sgt/android.git -b gingerbread
since kernel.org gits are still down, until they are back up you need to sync repo tool from github, so use this command line, thanks to Disgustipated for pointing it out.
curl https://raw.github.com/android/tools_repo/master/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
repo init -u git://github.com/cm7sgt/android.git -b gingerbread --repo-url=git://github.com/android/tools_repo.git
repo sync -j4
Grab Rom Manager as described.
You can't (no script) and don't need to copy proprietary files, everything is already included in vendor git.
Setup your android build environment and choose device to build:
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch cyanogen_galaxytab-eng
make -j4
There, it should build with no issues. Sometimes it will complain about API changes, run make update-api then.
From here you have two options.
1. Build Heimdall images. You will need kernel with loop support, losetup, ext4 tools (mkfs.ext4).
cd device/samsung/galaxytab/tools
./buildimage
it will grab stuff from out and create ext4 images. Flash with Heimdall.
2. Build update.zip
make -j4 bacon
How to build kernel
First, you will need the arm toolchain from CodeSourcery. You need arm-2009q3-68-arm-none-eabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2
From http://www.codesourcery.com/sgpp/li...q3-68-arm-none-eabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2
Unpack it in /opt/toolchains. as root
mkdir -p /opt/toolchains
cd /opt/toolchains
tar -xjvf arm-2009q3-68-arm-none-eabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2
Then in your CM7 tree
BEFORE YOU BUILD CM7 TREE
cd device/samsung/galaxytab
./kernel.sh defconfig
./kernel.sh modules
This will configure the kernel and build and copy modules to prebuilt directories. The kernel build directory is out/target/product/galaxytab/kernel_build
Build your android tree normally so initramfs is created.
Then again
cd device/samsung/galaxytab
./kernel.sh kernel
This will build the kernel using the initramfs in recovery/root and update prebuilt kernel image.
(for Latin kernel use kernel_ltn.sh script and use kernel_ltn file it produces)
Now you need to run make on your android tree again so boot.img is updated.
And proceed to buildimage or make bacon as usual.

P1000L tabs too?
I can test for you.

AFAIK P1000L hardware is different so it will need different kernel

How do we check which bootloader we have?

If you installed Euro JJ4 ROM you probably have JJ4 bootloader.
It will probably also work with stock ATT and TMO bootloader but I cannot guarantee that. I have JJ4. People have reported issues using Euro ROMs on ATT bootloaders, I believe the same issues will show up in my CM7.

Great news. I have polish rom maybe i help. galaxy tab jm6

That is amazing work!
Well done.

Which issue r u tlaking abt? I have recent att tab went straight to jme no issue. Lemme know if i could hrlp testing. Ubuntu & heimdall ready. I actually pulled your old cm6 and cp kernel-tab and what not to cm7 but failed at lunch cyanogen...

some white lines while booting etc. if JME works for you my stuff should work too.

I'm no expert but this seems obvious (for me). If you have a linux box, do a "strings boot.bin" on a protected bl (extract from JMF downloaded from samfirmware for instance), you will see these lines
PBL: Error.. sbl verification failed..
PBL: booting stop!
My at&t backup boot.bin does not have the above 2 lines.
Just my guess.

I can't wait for this... My Tab seems to just be less awesome without the love CM gives to Android.

installed but touch doesnt works.
what is the next step?

this is because of the different hardware!
if ur not a developer, leave it till it is stable because u are missing some necessary features for everyday use!

landroid thanks for your response.
btw i wanna learn how to fix that. can you give me directions ?
first of all I'll try to get stock rom compiled.

too bad again not for CDMA tab user

First off all u need to find the kernel source for ur tab (i think P1000L, right?) And then apply the patches technomancer made to the kernel but this is very hard to do! The best thing would be to contact technomancer! And if i find some spare time tommorrow ill try to compile a P1000L kernel for u but i cant guarantee that if i manage to do that everything works! But i knoe how to compile kernels from source so it should not be a problem!

[EXPERIMENTAL][AOSP][NRD90U] Unofficial Android 7.0 Nougat build

Code:
#include <std_disclaimer.h>
/*
* Your warranty is now void.
*
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please

* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
*/
Hello guys, this is an unofficial build of AOSP Nougat (with tag android-7.0.0_r6). Kernel is based on CM13's, with some recent commits in kernel/common in AOSP. Sources and patches are available at the end of the post.
Note: this ROM is just for having the first taste of Nougat, and thus missing a lot of key features. I may not be able to update it regularly.
Basic hardware functionality:
Almost everything works, except video hardware encoding, which causes camcorder to fail. HW decoding works though.
Everything should be working since 20160903.
I didn't find more hardware failures, but there can be more.
And remember, the proprietary firmwares and blobs are still in the age of Marshmallow, and a system won't be complete without corresponding firmwares and blobs.
Known bugs:
1. HW disk encryption is likely broken. I reverted some commits to make cryptfs_hw build, but I'm not sure if that works. Do not try it.
2. SELinux is permissive, and init allows service without a SELinux domain to start.
3. GPS may take longer to obtain a position fix. (yes it's working... sorry for the misunderstanding)
4. Only Launcher2 is included. You may install a new one as you like.
5. No LiveDisplay and gestures except DT2W (DT2W can not be turned off via Settings app for now) Color calibration is possible, see FAQ below.
6. Default input method could be broken. Be ready to "pm install your_ime.apk" in adb shell. Fixed in 20160828
7. com.qti.dpmserviceapp may produce continous FC. You can disable it via adb shell ("su -c pm disable com.qti.dpmserviceapp"). Removed in 20160828
8. Rotating screen while playing video can cause the display to "split" Fixed in 20160903
9. Camera service and media codecs all run in the same process, eliminating one of the security enhancements of Android N. May not be fixed until new HAL and blobs are available.
So the security improvements in Nougat are not making much difference in this only-a-taste ROM. If you rely on this, it would be better to wait for official releases.
FAQs:
1. Root / Gapps?
I'm using SuperSU 2.76 stable and OpenGapps 7.0 pico. They work without any issue.
If your contacts / calendars is not syncing, try the following steps:
1. Goto Settings > Apps, tap "Show system" in menu
2. Find "Google Contacts Sync", tap on it, tap "Permissions", turn on everything
3. Go back to Detail screen, clear its data
4. Go back to app list, clear "Contacts Storage"' data
5. Do the same for calendars (2-4)
6. Reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
2. F2FS?
I did not test this myself... But kernel has support already (of cource, it's from CM) so you may have a try. Remember to backup!
EDIT: Some users reported that F2FS partitions are corrupted. If you are using F2FS, maybe you should wait.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
3. Menu key / App switcher?
Menu key now acts as recents, since I don't think the former is as useful as the latter. And there is no more lag while tapping home button since we don't check for double tap anymore.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
4. TWRP shows error?
If that's two lines of "log", you can safely ignore it.
If there is something else, please stop and post it here.
If you are using MultiROM, you may modify update-script. Read the first ~8 pages and you will find it.
Reference: I'm using official TWRP 3.0.2 w/o MultiROM This recovery didn't get replaced by stock one...

Click to collapse
5. File manager (to install APKs)?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68402423&postcount=73
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
6. Disable HW keys, enable soft keys, screen color calibration?
Disable HW keys: echo 0 > /proc/touchpanel/keypad_enable (needs repeat on reboot)
Enable soft keys: echo "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 >> /system/build.prop (once)
Screen color calibration: echo "32768 31784 27852" > /sys/class/graphics/fb0/rgb (needs repeat on reboot, change the values as you need. This example is 100% R, 97% G, 85% B)
Optionally you can enable color enhancing: echo 1 > /sys/class/graphics/fb0/color_enhance

Note on the HALs:
AOSP HALs (msm8996 display + msm8974 media) can not record screen, but they "seem" to make the system smoother. (msm8974 display HAL cannot be used because it corrupts the display when rotating screen with video playing)
CAF HALs (both based on vanilla CAF LA.BF.1.1.3_rb1.13) can record screen but "seem" not to be so efficient as AOSP ones.
The HAL included in the ROM are the AOSP variant.

Note: please read "known bugs" section before flashing! Also you can read the guide below.
When updating the ROM, just dirty-flash new build and Gapps (if you use them).
In order to prevent your recovery from being replaced by the stock one, flash SuperSU along with the ROM.

Changelog:
20160919
Fixed Fackbook crash by avoiding preloading libboringssl-compat.so (CM camera HAL is the only camera HAL that does not require this)
Updated BT configuration (please test if it has any side effect. Sometimes you need to search twice to find your Bluetooth gadgets.)
Tried to fix network location (added Google's network location provider)
20160918
Reverted to previous "stub" power HAL. May fix lagging and unusual power consumption noticed by some users.
Tried to fix NFC FW download mechanism. May fix non-working NFC for some users.
20160910
Updated to NRD90U (android-7.0.0_r6)
Switched to CM/QCOM power HAL. The original power HAL is more like a placeholder.
Now on Tap can be launched by long-pressing home button
Switchable WebView implementation, thanks to @fards here
Note:
1. If you are experiencing display issues (such as screen flicker with FLV SW decoding), try switching on "Disable HW Overlay" in Development Settings.
2. If you need multi-user feature, remove /system/priv-app/com.qualcomm.location. Otherwise the system will crash. It was accidentally added in this build.
20160906
Switched back to AOSP HALs to increase performance, but screen recording is broken again. You can choose CAF HALs listed above to fix that. Camcorder and HW encoding work with both variants, no need to worry.
Updated media profiles. Front camera knows that it is not capable of 1080p recording.
20160903
Fixed HW encoder and camcorder (they are different issues, though related) (and switched to CM13 media HAL)
Fixed display corruption while rotating screen with video playing (by switching to CM13 display HAL, don't know which lines of code fixed that)
DT2W can be turned off via Settings
Added Reboot option in power menu
20160831
Fixed crash in World Clock page when selecting countries/regions
Fixed hang in Developer Settings when the ROM is installed as secondary
Fixed crash when taking photos with HDR on
Added support for kexec
Added Stk
20160828
Fixed default input method FC
Remove com.qti.dpmservices to prevent FC
Dev: updated build system to finally automate everything
20160827
Initial build
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Notes on the sources:
1. Build system produces correct boot.img in $OUT, but the boot image in OTA zip still has no DT included. Fixed in 20160828
2. Some fixes are really "dirty" (as I'm not able to find a proper way)...
3. Some JNIs fail to build (lots of C++ symbols no found). You may try linking C++ libs dynamically (c++_static -> c++_shared) to avoid this. See 20160828 patches, packages/inputmethods/LatinIME for example.
4. Some apps require android-8 ndk, but the earliest version in the tree is android-9. A symlink will do (or you can change the Android.mk in app) but I'm not really sure this will not introduce any bug.
5. Android N split mediaserver into multiple processes to improve security, such as cameraserver, mediacodec, etc. But camera blobs and old HALs were not designed like this. They assume they run in the same process, thus a buffer created by blobs are being used everywhere, which will cause illegal memory access under Android N. I reverted lots of patches about this, forcing camera and codec services to run in the mediaserver process as before - security compromised with functionality, again.
Hope you enjoy this.

I am going to try this out, thanks @updateing for your work:good:
If I could find fixes then I would send an pull request.

The All-In-One Post
Oh look at the time...it's flashy time already? XD
Screenshots:
(Layers themes work. Use Substratum app)
Guide to flashing this properly (TWRP v3.0.2-0):
(THIS GUIDE IS MAINLY FOR THE FIRST BUILD 20160827. AS I AM RUNNING IT SMOOTHLY, I DO NOT PLAN TO UPDATE TO 20160828, AS IT HAS SOME MINOR FIXES, ALREADY COVERED IN MY GUIDE.
IF HOWEVER, YOU'RE FLASHING 20160828 OR LATER BUILD, HERE'S WHAT YOU SHOULD DO DIFFERENTLY:
-Flashing Google keyboard is not mandatory, as default input mode has been fixed
-adb steps do not need to be performed as the com.qti.dpmserviceapp has been removed
-You probably shouldn't flash the SystemUI Tuner mod zip, as the SystemUI APK from previous build may not be compatible with new build. If you flash it on 28 build and have SystemUI FCs or missing SystemUI, just reflash ROM, and don't flash the mod.
REST OF THE GUIDE REMAINS THE SAME)
(This guide is for flashing as primary ROM without MultiROM. MultiROM guide by @7u5h4r: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68413163&postcount=242)
TL;DR version (that means short version)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68552389&postcount=1172
Download ROM zip from OP and Google Keyboard flashable zip, as well as any of the zips I linked below.
Wipe your device (data, cache, dalvik/ART cache; preferably even system, just to be as "clean" as possible)
(NOTE ABOUT DIRTY FLASHING:
-If you dirty flash this ROM (eg. flashing newer build), you will need to flash GApps again along with the ROM zip as GApps are not preserved
-This ROM actually booted for me even on a dirty flash from an MM custom ROM, and as a result I didn't face a lot of the problems you'd face on clean flash (GApps crashes, continuous qti app FCs, etc)
But a lot of my apps were crashing until I reinstalled them, and in any case, it is not advised to dirty flash when coming from MM)
Flash ROM zip and keyboard zip, optionally any of the following addons (DO NOT FLASH GAPPS YET):
-SuperSU (v2.68+) for root
-Any of the mods I linked below
-Any other mods like Viper4Android etc (AT YOUR OWN RISK)
Boot into the ROM. you'll probably see a lot of crashes, ignore them, and just find a PC for the next step
(Optionally, you could try to enable Developer Options by tapping past the FC dialogs, once you have DevOps enabled, you'll see an option to mute FC notifications till next boot)
Using ADB on your PC, disable the com.qti.dpmserviceapp package by running following commands:
Code:
adb devices
You should see a device in the list of devices connected
Code:
adb shell
pm disable com.qti.dpmserviceapp
If you get error with permissions, you may need root. If your device is rooted:
Code:
su
pm disable com.qti.dpmserviceapp
(SKIP 6, 7 & 8 if you do not need Google services)
Now reboot into recovery and flash a compatible GApps package (USE 7.0 GAPPS ONLY)
Boot into ROM
Go to Settings>Apps
Find Google Play Services, and go to its Permissions. Enable essential permissions. Now Play Services won't keep crashing on you. Also find Google Contact Sync and give it permission to access Contacts.
Go to Settings>Accounts and add your Google account
Profit

Layers themes are supported, use Substratum app (Play Store link) to apply
(ROOT NEEDED)
NOTE: Themes made only for Substratum will not work (properly) as this ROM doesn't support Substratum (that will need patches to ROM source). Only which support RRO/Layers will work without any issues.

Wow! Great work

Which sepolicy did you use? I am porting to a different device and Im currently trying to fix neverallows which is painful but I think I merged a commit to qcom/sepolicy which allows domain to start (im not very good in sepolicy). Its based off Cyanogenmod qcom/sepolicy repo. If you want to take a look its here android_device_qcom_sepolicy-1 and I had to add one thing to platform_system_sepolicy. I hope we'll be able to fix sepolicy soon.

Awesome.... Downloading already.

Awesome! Has anyone tried If gapps work?

Flashed it. But i get a FC all the time
com.qti.dpmserviceapp has stopped.
I cant do anything..?

Definition
Let me first define what I mean by Creator's Experience. This ROM is just as good as your stock ROM on KNOX 0x0. I am in no way taking credit for any of the development in this ROM, I'm just repackaging the stock Samsung ROM in Samsung's experience how they created it. But if you flashed stock ROM you may get a ton of KNOX warnings so selling the device or giving your device to someone else would make it more complicated and frustrating due to nagging popups that you have to disable by first setting up the device. I wanted to create something that you can restore your device to when you get bored of a custom ROM, or you just want to use the latest stock firmware again.
This ROM will never contain any tweaks or system addons, it is barebones stock with no KNOX and stubs so people can use it as a rescue/reference firmware.
Purpose
Being the owner of the Korean Samsung Galaxy S8+ 128GB/6GB (SM-G955N), there are only so many stock firmwares available from Updato or Sammobile. All listed firmwares contain all the CSCs located in the /system partition, and the CSC file toggles between them. This means that regardless of what CSC you flash on the device, you will activate all the applications that were disabled by the CSC (KT mobile apps should be disabled on the SKT CSC, and vice versa). So flashing a Canadian CSC will still have every single South Korean carrier bloat on your device, which sucks.
This is a strange situation with 955N users, where ALL THE BLOAT is stored in /system/priv-app, while the csc is just one small file that controls which applications are active/inactive on the device.
Process
So, what does this mean? I wanted the stock international 955F ROM on my device, really badly. But Odin refused to flash it due to a secure write/invalid magic string error. I have tried everything from modifying the PIT tables in the ROMs to flashing custom ROMs. As much as custom ROMs are great, I wanted something I could fall back to when sh*t hits the fan, as well as something that fit the stock lifestyle...since I would really have loved to keep KNOX 0x0 if the Korean firmware was not as bloated as I thought it would be.
So for those who were searching for the stock ROM that was created with stock in mind, I have repackaged the 955F stock using the kitchen by @SuperR., with removed KNOX + KNOX apps (Secure Folder, KNOX Settings 1 & 2, Samsung Pay, Samsung Pass, etc.), removed stub apps (Microsoft apps folder) and removed CSC (I will elaborate more below).
As it takes me from 3-6 minutes to download stock firmware, I will be keeping this up to date for people who will need a rescue zip.
Reproduction
The reason why I'm keeping this as clean as possible is because it functions the same way as the Odin package. The AP will be the ROM zip, while you have to flash your own custom kernel, and flash the CSC package by @Tkkg1994. Finally, to top everything off, Magisk will be flashed.
A flowchart of this process (clean flash) is listed below:
Flash CeX stock (this ROM)
Flash the CSC using the CSC utility tool by @Tkkg1994: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/development/utility-flashable-csc-selection-v1-0-0-t3605264
Flash the kernel, I highly recommend @jesec's Jesse Kernel: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/samsung-galaxy-s8--s8-cross-device-development/kernel-jesse-s-kernel-galaxy-s8-exynos-t3603521
Flash Magisk v12+: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
A flowchart of this process (dirty flash) is listed below [dirty flash is supported on CeX, as long as you follow these steps]:
Use TWRP and wipe /system
Flash CeX stock (this ROM)
Flash the CSC using the CSC utility tool by @Tkkg1994: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/development/utility-flashable-csc-selection-v1-0-0-t3605264
Flash the kernel, I highly recommend @jesec's Jesse Kernel: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/samsung-galaxy-s8--s8-cross-device-development/kernel-jesse-s-kernel-galaxy-s8-exynos-t3603521
Flash Magisk v12+: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
Anomalies
At the current stage, this is just the stock Samsung firmware. So any bugs found in the official bugs list of the current firmware revision would be present in this ROM. See the second bracketed codename in the title of this thread.
Do you use Netflix or Amazon Prime Video?
With their Widevine DRM Module, it bypasses anything Magisk Hide has to offer.
Using TWRP, remove /system/lib/liboemcrypto.so, then reboot to system.
If you ever want to restore stock, this is the AQEB binary: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=961840155545569722
Screenshots
There really doesn't need to be any screenshots, unless you have never turned on your phone on stock ROM before...but here, I'll show you Settings.
SafetyNet?
This is a simple phenomenon solved by having both a custom kernel with KNOX 0x0 simulation, like Jesse's kernel, and Magisk v12 installed with Magisk Hide enabled. It is confirmed that CeX respects SafetyNet.

Building with SuperR Kitchen for your own stock region ROM
If you're interested in creating your own flashable ZIP based on a ROM, I will be listing the full instructions on how to get your own stock ROM up and running.
I will be building the latest XXU builds as soon as they drop.
Please do not PM me, instead, post in the thread for people to learn.
Prerequisites:
- Your device MUST be of the Exynos variant, with an available TWRP on the device. If you have a Qualcomm device, close this window now!
- You must have a Linux environment. I know @SuperR.'s kitchen works on Windows using Cygwin, but as an AOSP developer, I work with Linux to build stuff!
- Sudo account
- Collect and utilize as much wits as you can!
- I will be doing all of this from the command line using SSH, no GUI for this!
1) Download the latest SuperR kitchen here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ap...chen-superr-s-kitchen-v1-1-50-v2-1-6-t3597434
by doing this (press enter after each line in this code block):
Code:
curl -s https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/github/git-lfs/script.deb.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt-get install git-lfs
git lfs install
git config --global credential.helper cache
cd ~/
git clone https://bitbucket.org/superr/superrs-kitchen.git
cd superrs-kitchen
./superr
The first time running the kitchen, you may need to install dependencies. It should automatically install all dependencies for you, but if it keeps asking you to install the same dependencies, you should install them using
Code:
sudo apt-get packageName
.
After all dependencies are installed, press 1 to create a new project, and name it whatever you want. In this example I will name it STOCK.
Press Q once the project is created (quits SuperR kitchen)
2) Download your Samsung stock firmware. There are two main sites nowadays to get Samsung stock firmwares from, including Updato and Sammobile.
Updato: http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?q=SM-G955F&rpp=15&order=date&dir=desc&exact=1
Sammobile: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s8/SM-G955F/
You will need to get the firmware on your Linux box, or from Updato, right click Download (the orange button) and click Copy Link.
If you are planning to download from the SSH box, do:
Code:
cd ~/superr-kitchen/superr_STOCK && wget link_of_updato
3) Your firmware file is now ready to be loaded up into the kitchen. So do:
Code:
./superr
Then click 4 to extract for a new ROM, then click "y"
4) When it asks you whether you want to include cache.img, it doesn't really matter if you do or don't. Click "y" and include it in the ROM.
5) It will then ask you to type a name for your output ZIP
6) If it asks you where to locate the partition info from, pick the entry that is recommended, which takes the partition from system.img and recovery.img (Detect by-name from boot/recovery images (recommended))
So simply click 1.
7) Finally, we must set the perm type/archive type of your images. Click 1 for set_metadata (KitKat+)
NOTE: I have tried using Sparse dat for Korean 955N image - which working at a cost of all Google apps crashing/not responding, but doing so on the 955F ZIP will completely break and cause it to get stuck in TWRP trying to flash. set_metadata is the most stable.
8) You can now fiddle with the ROM! It is highly recommended to replace the stock kernel with @jesec's kernel, but make sure you extract his other folders from his ZIP into your working directory (~/superr-kitchen/superr_STOCK/system/*) or you won't boot! You can either opt for this, or just flash the kernel ZIP to retain support from Jesse (this is what I picked for CeX).
Key configurations (the options I picked for CeX):
->7) Boot/Recovery Tools
- Unpack boot.img
- Type 5 and disable forceencrypt
- Type 1 and pack boot.img
->8) ROM Tools Menu
- Asserts Menu (if you're trying to do 955N ROM)
- Add/Remove Device (dream2lte) <- change from dream2lteks or any other model, since TWRP only recognizes dream2lte.
->6) Debloat Menu
- Custom Debloat
- ~/superr-kitchen/tools/root/bloat_custom must be edited to contain these entries (nano ~/superr-kitchen/tools/root/bloat_custom to edit the file):
Code:
system/app/Facebook_stub*
system/app/MSSkype_stub*
system/app/SecureFolderSetupPage*
system/priv-app/OneDrive_Samsung_v2*
system/priv-app/SecureFolder*
system/priv-app/SamsungPass_1.1*
system/priv-app/Excel_SamsungStub*
system/priv-app/PowerPoint_SamsungStub*
system/priv-app/Word_SamsungStub*
system/container*
- Remove Samsung Knox
9) You can make external edits by placing files in ~/superr-kitchen/superr_STOCK/system, or do whatever you want with the APKs
10) Let's start building!
If you left the window, all you have to do is do:
Code:
./superr
8
7
1
This will get you to the ROM zip building screen.
If the kitchen asks if you would like to convert the updater-script to an updater-binary, do it. Now give it some time to build. Usually my computer takes 2-3 minutes.
11) Finally, you can decide whether you want to sign the ZIP or not. Personally, I do not sign my ZIPs.
If you decide to skip signing, you're done! Just type "n" on your keyboard and click "q" to quit the kitchen. Your new ZIP is located in ~/superr-kitchen/superr_STOCK/STOCK_BASED_ROM.zip
You can either move this to your h5ai server, like I do at http://download.projektsubstratum.com/, or you could use transfer.sh here:
Code:
curl --upload-file ./STOCK_BASED_ROM.zip https://transfer.sh/STOCK_BASED_ROM.zip
You could also move it to AndroidFileHost using FTP, if you have a developer account.
This may take a while for the upload to complete, but once it is done, you are ready to flash the four ZIPs:
The ROM
A custom kernel
The CSC utility flasher
Magisk (for SafetyNet)
12) Congratulations, you're done!

Pulling your own CSC files
So you tried to extract the CSC file (cache.img) from the CP tar for Odin but no luck flashing...but you really wanted an up to date version..
Prerequisites:
- Your device MUST be of the Exynos variant, with an available TWRP on the device. If you have a Qualcomm device, close this window now!
- You must have a Linux environment for simg2img
- Sudo account
- Collect and utilize as much wits as you can!
- I will be doing all of this from the command line using SSH, no GUI for this!
1) Download simg2img to your Linux box and build the project
Code:
cd ~/
git clone https://github.com/anestisb/android-simg2img
cd android-simg2img
make
2) After simg2img has been compiled, we will have to use it.
Place your cache.img.ext4, yanked out of the CP.tar.md5 file (renamed to CP.tar) in the same directory of the git cloned repo
If you need a command to extract the .tar file, run:
Code:
tar xf CP.tar
3) Convert the image
Code:
./simg2img cache.img.ext4 cache.raw.img
4) Mount the image
Code:
sudo mkdir /media/csc
sudo mount -t ext4 -o loop cache.raw.img /media/csc
cd /media/csc
5) Copy the prepared flashable CSC zip out of the image
Code:
cp sec_csc.zip ~/
6) Flash the ZIP
7) Boot into the system. If you flashed a multi-CSC, you may need to configure it to be specific to your country.
This will require root, so get yourself into adb shell, then (credits to @jesec):
Code:
adb shell
su
am start com.sec.android.Preconfig/.Preconfig
A window will pop up giving you all the options selectable in your MultiCSC. Clicking and installing any of them will wipe your device, so watch out!

@OP
Great idea bro, thanks a lot.

Nice work! @nicholaschum

Very Good! Thanks!

Sorry, my english is to bad...
Thats mean, if i Flash this Rom and later, when i go back to stock, my knox will be 0x0?

No, KNOX still tripped but with fake 0x0

Good work !! @nicholaschum

Can I ask possibly a dumb question
Is flashing CSC required?
I mean what happens if you don't flash CSC.
I am currently in AU on Vodafone CSC. I would change it to XSA but if I decided not to or forgot to do it. Would the CSC activate based on what is currently set as my CSC there or is this required so the rom can then load the apps based on location?

Perfect Build Perfect ROM. Installed as per instructions and works like a charm. Thanks for the work.

The CSC is required or else Samsung stock ROMs will not know how to configure your phone. This also I closed LTE-A capabilities, wifi calling and VoLTE functionality. Since this ROM does not contain any CSC you could flash the DBT CSC from the flashing utility which is the default CSC on most ROMs that is Germany debranded.

@nicholaschum - thanks for sharing this ROM. i'm using as a daily driver for my "work device" in combination with the ATT CSC flashed via TK's CSC package. if/when Substratum is available for TW based S8 ROMs, can i assume your ROM will support it? thanks for taking time to read/respond to my question.

Just installed. Silky smooth! Great work op

Yes. That is the whole point behind it , keeping it stockish with subs support when it arrives.

I want install it, but i dont what do..
I want sale my phone later and get Note 7.
Is complicate if we cant use Samsung pay when we back to stock.

@nicholaschum Thanks heaps for this, took the leap and followed the instructions. Very simple task! now running XSA CSC with AQEB

Here's Burgerhunter/Dumplinghunter, a nethunter kernel for the oneplus 5/5T !
You know why you are here...
Burgerhunter kernel aim to port Kali Nethunter to the OP5, Kali nethunter is the entire Kali Linux operating system in a chroot on your phone.
In short Kali nethunter allows (nearly) any kali tool you love to run from your device and more !
For more information, RTFM --> https://github.com/offensive-security/kali-nethunter/wiki
About the kernel:
This kernel is built based on Official OOS kernel, franco kernel, or ElementalX.
This kernel is available for Official OOS ROM!
Selinux is always set to permissive mode.
[*]HID patch, some wifi packet injection patches, also enable the ECM protocol which allows you to share your device's network on Mac OS directly without any rndis driver installed. Added some drivers for external usb devices, like HackRF, proxmark3, serial adapters, etc.
Wireguard is patched.
Compile toolchain: gcc-arm-8.3-2019.03-x86_64-aarch64-elf & gcc-arm-8.3-2019.03-x86_64-arm-eabi
Nethunter kernel for OP5/5T is constantly updated.
Internal wifi monitor mode is supported now with latest nethunter kernel(OOS 9.0.11), but no packet injection ATM, however PMKID can still be catched. Details here: https://twitter.com/kimocoder/status/1243314073464377344
Source references:
arter97 knerel for OP5/5T - https://github.com/arter97/android_kernel_oneplus_msm8998
Official Kali Nethunter - https://gitlab.com/kalilinux/nethunter
Things you can play with this nethunter kernel:
Wifi penetration as long as you got a working dongle, or just use internal wifi monitor mode to capture the PMKID.
Perform HID attack with mouse & keyboard on all OS.
CDROM & Mass storage simulation supported with latest nethunter app or Drivedroid.
RNDIS & ECM simulation against Windows, Linux & Mac OS. Using RNDIS on Windows/Linux, and ECM on Linux/Mac OS(without any rndis driver installed on Mac OS).
Working macchanger.
The usual utilities you used to play with Kali OS(limited to armhf and arm64).
Recommendations
Things you'll need for wifi penetration test:
A usb c otg adapter. (you can also buy another otg with additional ethernet port.)
A usb wifi dongle capable of monitor mode, you can try some with realtek/ralink/atheros chipset. AWUS036H / AWUS036NEH works great !
Please read through those words highlighted in RED!! DON'T ASK FOR HELP if you didn't follow the exact steps from the instruction, because I CAN'T help if you do it on your own way!!
↓↓↓↓ INSTALLATION SECTION ↓↓↓↓​
[[[[[ Things you need before start flashing ]]]]]
Make sure you enable the USB debugging in developer option and confirm ADB is working.
A working twrp recovery, I recommend the "codeworkx" version, just search the latest updated one on XDA for downloads.
Latest magisk installer zip.
Nethunter kernel zip.
[*]Optional: A chroot tarball file if you choose to install the chroot by restore method, it can be downloaded from the Download section below.
Push all of them in the root of your /sdcard folder.
[[[[[ Before going any further, please check the following things below ]]]]]
Make a full nandroid backup. (always recommended in case you want to roll back the previous state) But for the data in /sdcard, you better make them a copy to other places as well.
[*]If you have kali chroot installed before, and you want to clean install the nethunter kernel, so please try to remove the chroot folder in twrp recovery first, just remove the whole directory: "/data/local/nhsystem" in twrp. But if you failed deleting the chroot folder, please format your data partition, and format it with ext2 format, and then format it again back to ext4.
** For those who are switching ROM from between STABLE and OPENBETA, please do go for CLEAN INSTALLATION **
[[[[[ CLEAN INSTALLATION ]]]]]
Boot into twrp recovery.
Follow these steps:
---wipe partitions including dalvik cache, cache, system, data & internal storage.
---Swipe to factory reset.
---Select "Format data", then type "yes".
These three steps should clear all your data in /sdcard and all the encrypted or unencrypted partition as well. Then proceed to next step.
Place all the needed files in /sdcard through MTP or adb from your PC.
Flash official oos stock ota ROM zip, then reboot to bootloader.
Flash twrp recovery again, and reboot to recovery. (because the stock ota ROM zip will overwrite the recovery.)
Flash nethunter kernel.
Flash official magisk installer zip.
Reboot into system.
[*]Download my nethunter-tribute app(see "Download" section below), open it and navigate to Chroot Manager fragment, and choose the way you want to install the chroot.(more info on "Chroot installation and trouble shooting" section below)
Download and install official nethunter app store apk, and then install the latest version of nethunter app and nethunter terminal app. And finally install the Kali Chroot in nethunter app's Chroot Manager.
Open magisk manager -> Downloads, search for "Wireless Firmware for Nethunter" by rithvikvibhu, download and install it, reboot again. (This step is trying to install a magisk module which includes the wireless firmware required by some external usb WiFi dongle)
Happy Hunting.
[[[[[ DIRTY INSTALLATION ]]]]]
* For devices that have magisk installed already.
Make sure your devices have magisk installed already, and using a working twrp recovery(codeworkx or bluespluk).
Place all the needed files in /sdcard.
Reboot into twrp recovery.
Flash nethunter kernel.
Flash official magisk installer zip.
Reboot into system.
[*]Download my nethunter-tribute app(see "Download" section below), open it and navigate to Chroot Manager fragment, and choose the way you want to install the chroot.(more info on "Chroot installation and trouble shooting" section below)
Download and install official nethunter app store apk, and then install the latest version of nethunter app and nethunter terminal app. And finally install the Kali Chroot in nethunter app's Chroot Manager.
Open magisk manager -> Downloads, search for "Wireless Firmware for Nethunter" by rithvikvibhu, download and install it, reboot again. (This step is trying to install a magisk module which includes the wireless firmware required by some external usb WiFi dongle)
Happy Hunting.
[[[[[ How to dirty update OOS ROM without losing any data?]]]]]
Make NANDROID backup as always.
Make sure you have downloaded the official full stock rom zip(not ota, size should be larger than 1.5g).
[*]Reboot into twrp recovery, and wipe dalvik cache & cache partitions.
Flash official stock ota zip, then reboot into bootloader and re-flash the twrp recovery again.
Re-flash nethunter kernel.
Re-flash magisk installer zip
Reboot into system.
Now all data in /data partition should remain unchanged which means all your files are still there, but the OOS version is upgraded.
↓↓ Chroot installation and trouble shooting ↓↓​[*]Install the official nethunter app via official nethunter app store first, and install the kali chroot via Chroot Manager in nethunter app.
[*]If you are trying to remove the chroot and encounter some permission issue that not allowing your to delete the folder, your /data partition may possibly corrupt already, and the only way to solve it is to format the /data partition, or wipe out the whole phone. sometimes you won't be even able to format it, then you will need to proceed "change the filesystem" of /data to ext2 first, it can force format the /data partition and make it to ext2, then change it back to ext4. Now you can re-install the ROM zip and start it all over again.
↓↓↓↓ USB ARMY ↓↓↓↓​
How to bring up HID ?? (For OnePlus5/5T only)
Now you can do it from my latest modded nethunter app called nhtribute in the USB Army fragment.
Or, you can do it manually following the guide below:
Make sure you have the kernel flashed properly, and confirmed wifi is working.
Now, you can switch the usb to different status, currently you have the options belows:
Code:
setprop sys.usb.config reset
setprop sys.usb.config win,hid
setprop sys.usb.config win,mass_storage
setprop sys.usb.config win,rndis
setprop sys.usb.config win,hid,mass_storage
setprop sys.usb.config win,rndis,hid
setprop sys.usb.config win,rndis,mass_storage
setprop sys.usb.config win,rndis,hid,mass_storage
setprop sys.usb.config mac,hid
setprop sys.usb.config mac,mass_storage
setprop sys.usb.config mac,ecm
setprop sys.usb.config mac,hid,mass_storage
setprop sys.usb.config mac,ecm,hid
setprop sys.usb.config mac,ecm,mass_storage
setprop sys.usb.config mac,ecm,hid,mass_storage
[reset] -> reset the usb state to [mtp] or [mtp,adb]
[win] -> target on Windows or Linux
[mac] -> target on Mac OS
[hid] -> enable HID
[rndis] -> enable RNDIS if your target is Windows or Linux.
[ecm] -> enable ECM if your target is Mac OS.
[mass_storage] -> enable MASS_STORAGE
Alternatively you can append ",adb" to the end of each command above that enables adb as well.
So you can bring up the HID, RNDIS/ECM and mass_storage at the same time, it would be useful if you don't have any keyboard or bootable usb or network at that moment.
[*]Also, for HID attack, I have added the code to "bootkali" for checking if the target PC has your HID drives installed before executing the ducky script.
[*]The usb interface is actually setup and described in init.nethunter.rc file at your android root folder, please take a look.
How can I share my device's network after switching the usb state to RNDIS/ECM ??
First, make sure your usb state is on RNDIS or ECM, please note that these is no network assigned to your RNDIS(rndis0) or ECM(usb0) interface every time you switch to them.
All these jobs can be done in the nethunter app or by executing the "auto_network_sharing.sh", place that script into "/sdcard/nh_files/punkscripts/"
Feel free to modify or add up your code and share your idea to improve the script.

Thank you very much (Really)

Wow! You are my hero. Thanks man!!!!

Does it work on encrypted devices?

Both encrypted or decrypted works fine for OOS but right now your device has to be decrypted if you want to use it with any LOS based rom.

Los is forked from aosp...It should work...Take a backup and try it out

Can you put the internal wireless card in monitor mode?

Just need to know which wifi chipset the oneplus 5 is rocking, maybe it's the one integrated in the Snapdragon 835, need to do some searching but it seems quite unlikely...

[UPDATE]
Updated Burgerhunter-LOS to V4.5

Not working for me. OOS encrypted. Picture attached.

I didn't find out either, didn't find anything for the OnePlus 3 too. Maybe you know better, cause I'm just an amateur Dev.

Can I install something like Xserver XDSL so I have a gui?
If you know GNU root Debian, you know what I mean

Fine, busybox seems to be installed along with the kernel...
Do you have a menu (see my screenshot) when you open the kali terminal ?
If so you must select "kali" in order to access the chroot.
If you don't have that menu try to reflash the nethunter zip then the kernel and wait for the nethunter app to update your chroot (it was still updating on your first screenshot).
If none of this did the trick you can try to run this in (any) terminal app :
su
sh /data/data/com.offsec.nethunter/files/scripts/bootkali_bash
You should now be able to access your kali chroot

****
These builds are for all G4 models: official unlocked and UsU'd devices
****
UsU? http://bit.do/unlockg4​
About /e/​/e/ is a mobile ecosystem (ROM + onlines services) that:
is open source
is pro-privacy
is compatible with most existing Android applications
cares about usability
is as far as possible freed from shackles by Google and OEMs
already exists!
It’s the alternative to the Apple/Google duopoly on the smartphone.
... so again and just to be clear: /e/ is not just a ROM, it is more a complete privacy ecosystem and consists of:
an installable mobile operating system for smartphones, which is forked from Android and strongly “ungoogled”
a set of sorted and improved default open source applications
various online services that are linked to the mobile operating system, such as: a meta search engine for the web, drive (with synchronization), mail, calendar, notes, tasks.
Features​
Based on LineageOS so a very stable base
microG fully pre-installed with Signature Spoofing in restricted mode!
All features described on the /e/ page: What is e
full OTA update support
... you know that thing which informs you that a new update is there and where you just click to download + install
Difference from pure /e/ or: why are the builds CUSTOM?​
F-Droid has been added (The OpenSource alternative store. First search for any apps here!)
Dozens of F-Droid repositories are pre-installed but NOT activated by default (activate them with just a finger tip! That's needed to ensure you only get what you want)
added PhoneSky a patched Google playstore allowing in-app-purchase on microG
added Lawnchair (latest from their TG group)
The above changes are the reasons why my builds are of the type "CUSTOM" and not "UNOFFICIAL".
This is according to the rules /e/ defined.
Known issues​Keep in mind that this is brand new stuff so it may (still) contain unknown issues!
So back up regularly and frequently!
Check the current issues at the github tracker (feel free to help, provide logs etc!)
If you find a bug not listed, follow the instructions here and provide me with the logs: FAQ #1
Requirements​
Your device need to be unlocked either officially (h815 international or h811) or by UsU
Your bootloader stack should be on lastest MM version for your model. That is e.g. 20p for the H815 models or 20x for H811.
So.. NO SUPPORT ON LOWER bootloader stacks then the latest MM version for your model
... and NO SUPPORT for the BETA v29A as well!!
-> for your convenience I have created TWRP flashable files for that !!!! (click)
Of course ensure you just use files for your model, your ARB and UsU'd or not. If unsure ask.
in particular that means this thread is for:
F500, H810, H811, H812, H815 (official unlocked or UsU'd), H819 , LS991, US991, VS986
Latest TWRP - PREVIEW build: click or SHRP build: click
Do a full Nandroid backup before doing anything!
Installation​
This single very first step is for UsU'd devices only (SKIP when you have an official unlocked model):
If you have ever flashed the UsU baseband package: Clean flash the modem partition from your backup in TWRP.
If you do not know if you ever flashed it simply re-flash your modem partition again and you can be sure. This can't do any harm.
If you have no backup:
- TWRP flashable MM modems (N will not work)
Ensure your bootloader is current! You will have issues if you are not on the latest bootloader stack. Read the above Requirements topic to find a link to TWRP flashable files.
Full clean install as described here (FAQ "#2") is highly recommended. DO NOT REPORT ISSUES when you have skipped that step!
Flash /e/
Optional (if you want root): Flash Magisk
Flashing OpenGapps ????? NO No no! you don't want that on a google-free phone! /e/ contains everything you need to live without Google! So flashing OpenGapps on /e/ is like using a bit more secure LOS but that's not the point of /e/. Either try without or go with LOS (imho).
Boot it (will take a bit on first boot!!! be patient!)
Enjoy the most easy way to have a privacy focused and google-free phone!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q #01: I want to report an issue. What is the proper way to do so?
I'm glad that you are asking: before doing so check the KNOWN ISSUES topic in the OP and ofc the other FAQ's listed here!
If you encountered a kernel panic follow FAQ #6 in this post instead.
If you have issues with "just" the boot process follow FAQ #7 for a very easy way to grab the boot logs.
if you have an audio issue follow FAQ #10 instead.
If your issue is not listed there click here to proceed:
If your issue is not listed there follow the directions here briefly and I may can fix it:
logcat GUIDE
Ensure you have done a full CLEAN install before doing so (refer to FAQ #2 for what that means).
Warning: LIMITED SUPPORT when:
- magisk is installed (known to cause issues sometimes - regardless of the ROM or version)
If you have magisk installed currently UNINSTALL or better do a FULL CLEAN install (see FAQ #2) before doing anything else. Try to re-produce the issue. If it is gone, its magisk related. otherwise follow the above to grab the log.
Magisk is a great piece of software and besides that it is Open Source which SuperSu never was.
I just saying I do not "support" issues with LOS when you have Magisk installed. Why? It is (like Xposed) extendable with modules (made by whoever) and those can cause billions of issues.
Other then that magisk was sometimes the reason for battery drain etc. Magisk modifies the boot "process" and is placed very deep in the system (which is needed to make it work ofc) but that has the potential to make a system/ROM unstable or result in strange behaviors.
so in order to support a specific issue I have to be sure the ROM is in a "clean" state, no magisk, no xposed.
Pro-Tip: set magisk to core functions only to see if an extension causes your issue or not.
Q #02: I want to install clean, how? What is a clean install? What is the recommended way to flash a new ROM version?
A clean install ensures that there are no leftovers from any previous install. One can say that there are 2 phases of a clean flash:
1) regular
2) full - when you (still) encounter issues
Usually the regular one is fully ok when flashing a new ROM version but if you encounter strange issues nobody else is reporting or if a release post is recommending it you should do a full clean install instead.
A regular clean install can be done like this:
WIPE -> Advanced -> select: System + Cache
Flash the ROM
reflash root addon/magisk if you want root
A full clean install needs 2 steps more then the regular:
follow the steps for regular clean
go back in WIPE -> touch Factory Reset and let it do its job
go back in WIPE -> touch the "FORMAT data" button and type "yes" to format the internal storage (you will LOOSE ALL YOUR DATA - obviously)
REBOOT -> Recovery
Flash the ROM
reflash root addon/magisk if you want root
It is absolutely recommended to create a backup before and COPYING IT to your PC(!) before doing the above.
Q #03: Are there any plans or a chance of official /e/ builds?
yes this might happen when the following has been solved / implemented (which is NOT the case currently (see known issues):
- selinux = enforcing
- device encryption working
Q #04: Will this ROM support / pass SafetyNet?
When you install Magisk you can hide and so yes you might be able to pass SafetyNet. Which can change every day though because even when that might work atm you should note the following:
Magisk has its own protections to ensure you pass safetynet but this is something which will change one day and there is no known method yet to workaround that.
Q #05: It looks like the CPU cores 5 and 6 are disabled - how can I fix that?
TLDR;
There is no fix required! it is fully ok when those are idle. they get hot plugged whenever needed.
Details:
we have 2 clusters of CPU cores resulting in a Hexa-core CPU set: (4x1.4 GHz Cortex-A53 & 2x1.8 GHz Cortex-A57)
the big one (2 CPU cores - higher performance = more battery drain, more heat which potentially causing the: bootloop issue) and the little (4 CPU cores - less battery drain but a bit slower) are handled dynamically based on the load of your device.
the big cluster will run ONLY when it is NEEDED - i.e. high load.
so when you look closer: those are not DISABLED they are IDLE which is a big difference.
Q #06: I get a kernel panic or green/purple/blue screen how to grab logs for this?
When you encounter a kernel panic and you are able to reboot without taking out the battery (taking out the battery will erase RAM and so erase the needed logs):
1) reboot (without taking out the battery!) to either TWRP/SHRP or (if you have root access) to your ROM
2) grab everything need from here: /sys/fs/pstore/ (e.g. adb pull /sys/fs/pstore/)
If you don't have a pc near you can do it directly from the device as well:
Enable the terminal app in developer options or download any
Open the terminal app.
su
cd /sdcard/Download
tar czf pstore.tgz /sys/fs/pstore
Attach pstore.tgz to your post.
It is crucial important that you do this only after the reboot happened . It's not important "when" though - as long as the device stays powered on.
Developers note:
convert PMSG log (requires a linux system):
Code:
tr -cd '\11\12\15\40-\176' < pmsg-ramoops-0 | sed 's/TENS\s/\n/g' > readable-pmsg.txt
Q #07a: I get a kernel panic on boot or having other boot issues but the pstore log are empty! What should I do?
Q #07b: How can I provide a clean boot log?
Since a while there is a very easy way to provide debug logs for the boot process. Before my convenient logging you had to follow FAQ #1 to grab them and it was a bit of PITA for some users.
So here you go for a much easier way:
boot Android
once booted : reboot to TWRP/SHRP
when you have a bootloop instead: take the battery out just before the bootloop occurs, or better press the key combo to get into TWRP all the time to eventually get there directly
once in TWRP ensure that "Cache" is mounted in the "Mount" menu (if not mount it by ticking the box)
open a terminal on your PC and type:
Code:
adb pull /cache/debug/boot_lc_crash.txt
adb pull /cache/debug/boot_lc_full.txt
adb pull /cache/debug/boot_lc_kernel.txt
paste one by one to a paste service like https://del.dog/ , https://paste.systemli.org/ or https://paste.omnirom.org/
Q #8: upgrade your bootloader stack only?! Read here how:
Check the OP of this thread which has TWRP flashable files linked.
Q #9: Is there an /e/ specific FAQ?
Sure:

Forum: click
HOWTOs: click (a great resource for all your first questions)
Q #10: issues with audio (e.g. echo's, silence on one or the other site, ..)? Read here how to provide a specific log for that:
Do the following steps:
1) Ensure you have adb set up on your PC, and have adb debugging and adb root enabled in developer options on your phone
2) Then perform the following (all one command)
On Linux:
adb root ; adb shell "stop audioserver; logcat -c -b all; start audioserver" && sleep 10 && adb logcat -b all |egrep -vi "(dialer|telecom|ril|gsm|touch|brightn|dct|QC-time-services|SST|sensors|AlarmMan|Lights|perfp)"

On windows:
adb root ; adb shell "stop audioserver; logcat -c -b all; start audioserver && sleep 10 && logcat -b all |egrep -vi '(dialer|telecom|ril|gsm|touch|brightn|dct|QC-time-services|SST|sensors|AlarmMan|Lights|perfp)' "

3) Then re-produce your audo issue and cancel the logcat from step 2 before hanging up!
4) Share the logcat output from the console screen using paste.omnirom.org
Q #11: I'm scared about that microG , I don't want to expose my phone so is this /e/ version a security risk?
First of all you need a lot of trust installing ANY custom ROM. A developer can do nasty things right? Besides that yes microG allowing to let apps act like as they are another app, also known as signature spoofing. This CAN be a good and a bad thing. Read on why my builds are different:
In general the microG patch is an all or nothing. A ROM which supports microG (i.e. signature spoofing) have that feature enabled, always.
The difference in my /e/ builds is that I am using the "restricted" option of signature spoofing so as long as you trust me you are as safe as without microG.
Q #12: I have graphic glitches / issues, what can I do?
My builds using OpenGL instead of skiaGL since a while. skia is the new and faster renderer coming with pie by default but it can cause graphic glitches in some applications and/or situations.
Is there any fix for skiaGL coming? No, details here .
To check if your current ROM version is using skiaGL do this:
Code:
adb shell getprop debug.hwui.renderer
If you get an empty result or "skiagl" it means skiaGL is active.
If for any reason you wanna enforce skiaGL you can do so by
temporary (immediately activated):
Code:
adb root (must be enabled in dev options)
adb shell setprop debug.hwui.renderer skiagl
or make that change persistent:
Code:
boot TWRP
backup system
mount system
adb shell
echo "debug.hwui.renderer=skiagl" >> /system/build.prop
sync
reboot
.-

I uploaded it, good speed, I will continue to try. Thank you

Thanks for this new ROM
I recommend a full cleanup with format
The only issue I have so far is that I can't connect to my Murena.io account, it keeps on loading. Logs attached

Thanks for this Rom, installed 72 hours ago, feels a bit slower than the same Pie Rom,thats expected, but it is fine, very usable. You do an excellent job with this Rom, feels more fluid and energy efficient than linage pie plus gapps and gms working as it should out of the box, this is the first and only Rom of all, i have tried, in every phone i had since my first android, from 2011 doing that. Wont gonna write nothing about battery usage, or SoT, batteries are the oem LG put in these phones.
Until now the only incovenience is that with dark theme enabled, sometimes, 3 out of 10 times, when i wake the screen its lights wont use the brightness it supposed to use, it wake very dim, i´m still debuging this glitch, pushing the power button to turn it off and then pushing it again bring back to full brightness the screen.

The blackout when phone display is off is a well known issue since years with any custom ROM for the g4. We tried to fix that for a long time without any real success.

Interesting note, i did not know about it, thanks for the tip, i will use light theme now onwards then, got another little problem with the microphone, the other person hear me to low, only when i use speakerphone in a whatsapp call, with out the speakerphone activated every thing is working well, have not tried in a normal telephone call yet, i have tried changing microphone volume setting in kernel with ex kernel manager, but no success in that, changing screen colors and saturation works in that app, thank you.

@steadfasterX this could be tried https://github.com/sthomsonpl/devic...mmit/07db7d8be41997765f9a0c60d7e7476b5440545e

I installed this ROM yesterday, and its running fine so far.
Thanks a lot for bringing this gem to ye ole G4.
You really did an excellent job!

Auto rotate not working. H815 UsU'd. Yes - flashed UsU zip.
Edit: Also, when turning on bluetooth, connecting bluetooth headphones then playing a video, bluetooth turns off.
I haven't tested bluetooth on the pie /e/OS or the various LineageOS builds, so it could very well be affecting those too.

Hello,
I have unlocked my G4 H815 EU version with USU and installed /e/-OS with Android 11 on it, but afterwards I noticed that I can't make phone calls. I also can't receive phone calls, but the phone sends a message that I have received a phone call. How could this error be fixed?
