[ROM][STOCK][Lolipop][deodexed,resigned,zipaligned] D5503 14.5.A.0.270 Enhanced LP

Hi, just to share with you!
Whats this? In short, it is deodexed -> resigned -> zipaligned, installed busybox, supersu, dual recovery (vol up for twrp, vol down for cwm), 5way reboot menu ...and some other changes which you can read about it here -> https://github.com/munjeni/D5503_14.5.A.0.242/commits/master .
How to download rom:
- go to here -> https://github.com/munjeni/D5503_14.5.A.0.242/tree/ae7b18de7faa97eaf01eff1c2b6abeb540feaf6f and on the right side you have "Download zip"
- after downloading rom is not ready, do not flash!!!
How to install:
- after you download rom you must repack zip since git always add things into new folder inside zip so you will need repack it first before installing!
- simple open main zip and go to folder "14.5.A.0.242.master", select all files from these folder, drag and drop it to a new empty zip, you are done. Before you flash rom please read "iportant" section! Flash these new zip with any recovery. Done.
Mirrored download link (using this you no need to repack anything, just download and install!):
- https://mega.co.nz/#!Co1yERia!eJVCBjTZrjXok3KXZxM9xp_28I9Pos-LPYKjigJ6Bok
Important:
- you must fully wipe /data partition (mean delete everything from /data folder)! Or another solution, flash only userdata from any LolyPop ftf! Why? Because all old files from internal storage is not relabeled and you will encounter a lot of problems and all these files can not be accessed from android, pictures, private files... etc is not accessible than! Don't think it will work without wipe, it will not! Wioe data factory reset have no sense, I recomend installing userdata from ftf since its more a safe way!
Changelog:

Enjoy!

Curently I am stoped development on this rom since I am unable to solve thing like this -> lolipop have two classpaths (BOOTCKLASSPATH and SYSTEMSERVERCLASSPATH) and I not understand how to access classes from one classpath to another classpath, if you have idea how I can get this than I will probably continue development. My plan was implementing privacy guard rom cm12 but since I have problem accessing classes I am temporary stoped

Flashed this ROM and it is amazing.
Debloated it, installed some mods like xposed, xposed fix, modded services.jar for superuser mode, modified mixer_paths.xml for more loudness and some apps like MyAndroidTools, TitaniumBackup, Greenify.
Works like a charm and good battery life.
Only thing is the aweful toogle change by Google (no silent, vibrate toggle on quick settings) - but this depends NOT on your ROM.
Thx munjeni (one more time) for your time, work and effort.

I have no idea why it is caled SuperUser Mod since it have nothing related to SuperUser. It is just SignatureDisable mod, author stupidly gave these name to these mod which apsolutly have nothing related to superuser If you look into commits on my git you will notice that you no need his services.jar since my rom allready have disabled signature verification, I not guarant you how his services is patched, but I can sugest you to replace services.jar whith one from my rom since compatibility is guaranted
This http://www.androidauthority.com/cyanogenmod-12-superuser-577985/ is what I call superuser mod (I have plan to port it here), and diferencie between "wrongly named" superusermod and real superusermod like one from cm12 is like this and this

i tried that and / or replaced some things like bootanimation, fonts etc.
Flashing failed, so flash it untouched and remove / add things then.

I'm trying to solve this but have no idea how to do it, it is selinux restriction (if somebody have idea how it can be solved let me know please), but temporary solution is: via terminal emulator disable selinux, than install app, than enable selinux. To disable selinux write "setenforce 0", than install app, than enable selinux "setenforce 1"

You can but only if you propertly remove lines from updater-script since it is hardcoded with our rom, instead recovery will abort installation if you missed something in updater-script ! My sugestion is, remove things manualy using an root file explorer, or at least add some lines in updater script which will remove things that you want

No man, you no need sdcard fix. I allready included sdcard fix https://github.com/munjeni/D5503_14.5.A.0.242/commit/21b396daf721791c3675de417c543ba6184e21d1 and you can read / write any storage without problems, but we speak about problem related to the "installing apps from sdcard"! For example, if you try to install blablabla.apk which is on any storage you will get "no free space" error since selinux DENIED installing it, I don't have idea why it happen since I am not familiar with selinux, only very basic things by now. I will try to solve this problem!

Ok thanks for info. On my rom selinux must be disabled temporary before installing any app from sdcard, than enabled. I will try to understand why it happening. For sure it is related to selinux. I replaced platform key in selinux_policy.xml since all apks on our rom is resigned and zipaligned but it was not solved problem related to the installing apks from sdcard.

[APP][Unofficial]Dual Boot Patcher for Xperia M

Hello all, I added support for Xperia M single and dual sims in Dual Boot patcher, but since my phone is bricked, I couldn't test before I make this release, however I am sure it should work as expected. Test and give your feedback ​

I am proud to present first Dualboot project For Xperia M. This will allow any number of ROMs to be installed at the same time. It works by patching the secondary ROM's installation scripts and boot image to load the ROM files from an alternate location (like /data/multiboot). Because of the way this is implemented, no changes to the primary ROM are necessary
What is DualBootPatcher?
DualBootPatcher is an open-source app that allows multiple ROMs to be installed on a single Android device. It does its best to work with existing code and does not require explicit support from ROMs. There are currently 200+ supported devices and their variations.
Information:
I have managed to support for Xperia M to the DualBootPatcher App, I am not the developer, I am just the maintainer.
It's awesome and useful for testing out roms or if you want, switching ROMS.
Disclaimer:
Code:
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 do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you. Hard. A lot.
Requirements:
1. A Custom Recovery (TWRP)
2. A ROM
3. Dual Boot Patcher app from the download section below.
4. Root
What does the app do ?:
It patches...
Custom kernels for dual boot support
ROMs so that they can be installed as secondary
Google Apps packages for AOSP-based ROMs
SuperSU so that it can be used in the secondary ROM
How to use the App?
- Download, install and open the app.
- Swipe to the right to open the menu. Click "ROMS". Now if this is the first time you use it, it will ask you if you want to set kernel. Do so!
- After it has finished go to ROM Settings (primary ROM 3 dot menu) and select Update Ramdisk. It will update it and will ask you to reboot. Press Reboot Now, or Reboot later.
- Now Download any ROM you like and open the app again and open the menu and open Patch Zip File from the menu. Ensure that your Device is set correctly and under Partition configuration select secondary (will install 2nd ROM in /system) or data or external SDCard slot.
- Click continue and select where to save the patched file.
- You should see the file is being put in "Queue". Just click the confirm button to the upper right.
Note: If you want to go back, just swipe the ROM in queue to right and start over.
- The app will patch the zip. When done, go back to "ROMs".
- Click "Flash zip files" (the big pink button on the lower right). Click the pink plus button to add your previously patched zip file.
- Locate the file you have patched in step 7. Unless you have changed the name there, it should be something like ROM_name_partition_config_ID.zip (like LOS13-20170807-nicki-Unofficial_dual.zip).
- Click on that file and choose "Keep location". Now confirm the flash with the button on the upper right side.
Note: You can also install the patched zip files in recovery.
- It will now open the terminal and begin flashing the file. This requires some patience. After it has flashed the file you'll see success message in green.
- Now click back and you should see your newly installed ROM along with the Primary ROM.
Note: You can find more options by clicking on the three buttons on each ROM.
- Now reboot and wait till finishing 2nd ROM first boot. install DualBootPatcher apk so you can easily switch ROMs, there is another way to change ROMs: flash DualBootUtilities.zip and switch ROM manually.
Note: Using Bootui:
- Open app then select settings and press install (update) bootui. then Swipe to the right to open the menu. Click "ROMS" again and open secondary ROM Settings) and select Update Ramdisk, Now you can change ROMs simply using boot ui (something like grub bootloader but it works like twrp)
Partitions Configurations:
The patcher offers several locations for installing ROMs:
Primary: This is normally used for installing a zip to the primary ROM. It is not required, but is strongly recommended because it has code to prevent the zip from inadvertently affecting other ROMs.
Dual: Dual/Secondary is the first multiboot installation location. It installs to the system partition. This is a good spot for installing a second ROM because it doesn't take any space away from the internal storage.
Multi-slots: There are 3 multislots: multi-slot-1, multi-slot-2, multi-slot-3. These install to the cache partition. This is specifically for devices, like the Galaxy S4, that have a massive cache partition.
Data-slots: There can be an unlimited number of data slots. These install to the data partition and eat up space on the internal storage. This is useful for devices where the system partition is nearly full and the cache partition is tiny. These slots are named "data-slot-[id]", where "id" is something you provide in the app.
Extsd-slots: There can be an unlimited number of extsd slots. These install to the external SD card, which is useful as it keeps the ROMs off of the internal storage. Note that the ROM's data files are still stored on the data partition.
How to boot to another ROM ?
This is simple ... There is no reboot to primary, secondary or whatever. So all you have to do is:
1) Go to ROMs section of the App.
2) Click on the ROM you want to boot to. You should see "Switching ROM" message. After few seconds, you should see a report message saying that "ROM successfully switched".
3) Now just do a normal reboot of your device. See the magic! It should boot to the ROM you have switched on step 2.
Note: You can find more options by selecting the three buttons on each ROMs (like creating reboot widgets for directly rebooting to specific rom).
You also need to install the App to all of the ROMs you install. Otherwise, you want be able to boot to other ROMs!
Apps and Data sharing:
To use app sharing, follow these steps in every ROM that you want to use app sharing: (doesn't work with JB ROMs)
Install the app you want to share
Open DualBootPatcher and go to "App Sharing" in the navigation drawer
Enable individual app sharing
Tap "Manage shared applications" and enable APK/data sharing for the app
Reboot
Other How to ?
Wipe /cache, /data, /system, or dalvik-cache?
The easiest way is to do it from the app while booted in another ROM. Just go to "Roms" in the navigation drawer, tap the 3 dots options menu for the ROM you want to wipe, and tap "Wipe ROM".
Update the primary ROM?
Patch the zip for primary and flash it. The "primary" installation target is designed so that other ROMs won't be affected when you want to flash something for the primary ROM.
Update a non-primary ROM?
Patch and flash the zip exactly like how you did it the first time.
Flash a mod or custom kernel for the primary ROM?
Patch it for primary before flashing. If the zip does not wipe /cache, it is also safe to flash it directly.
Flash a mod or custom kernel for a non-primary ROM?
Just patch and flash it

Thanks man for your work. I installed second rom in external sd card but I forgot to flash magisk zip file. Now my device boots into second rom but I don't have root access and if I install anything through twrp, it will get installed in system partition which is not the partition for second rom. What should I do now?

You should read the thread​
Anyway, install DBP apk on the secondary rom too, from there you can switch roms
For your root problem, anything that you want to flash into the secondary rom should be patched too; for example you patched LOS13 with the id "secondary" to be installed in external SD card and you want to have root and gapps too, so you have to patch supersu.zip and gapps.zip with the id "secondary" to be installed into external SD card too.
it is simple, and please read the thread next time :good:

Thanks man for help. I thought I would be needing root access for switching the roms. But it turns out that I don't require root for that. Thanks again
And one another important thing, magisk v13 is not supported in dual app patcher. So ig you want root then flash v12

any plan make this app to official, , ,

- Use superSU.zip on the secondary rom
- One important note: If you are stuck, or having a bootloop and can't boot into primary rom, reboot into recovery and flash boot.img you backed up when you first used the app, its location is on internal memory, and you can use the same steps to switch to the secondary rom without using the app.

I tried 3 different kernel (alexa, nova and stock one), but I get the same error. --> Log is attached
Can you please tell, wich kernel works for the xperia m SS 15.4.A.1.9 Firmware
Thanks,

Folder Mount

Rooted now my G5 on Stock Rom, also get Root Access but get 2 issues which wasn´t planned :silly:
1. getting all couple of seconds a information that LED notifier are allowed to get root access (yes, it is set on don´t ask again, allow without timelimit...)
2. Reason why I´m rooted the phone was: Want a Couple of apps save on SD Card, now foldermount mention that supersu isn´t installed so can´t work properly
Any Ideas or maybe an alternative app to install apps on sd?

some apps only work with a certain superuser
superSU does work with the G5 but I don't think it works with stock rom - although I haven't tried (you have to root first then switch superuser although like I said haven't tried with stock rom but I have got supersu working on lineageos but I would stick to the inbuilt root)
If you want to root the G5 with stock I would use magisk - you need version 11.6 to flash in twrp then you can update to the latest version in magisk manager - only root works with magisk - dont use magisk hide or modules as they are currently not supported
If you are on lineageos just flash the suaddon zip (see the first post instructions on lineageos dev page)
An alternative app would be link2sd - please note you can natively move apps to sd but any apps that use a widget or require anything to do with internal storage will no longer work
For these apps its best to symlink them - this requires you to create a 2nd ext partition on your sd card then you link these apps to your sd card - They will then be on your sd card but act as though they are on internal because they are symlinked
Be warned that the more apps you link in this way you may find your phone become more laggy

[Guide] How to Solve Obb data lost on android 8.1 Custom Rom in Moto G5 Plus.

I have found solution to play games which contains obb data in android oreo based Roms. I have been facing issue from last one week that obb data automatically converted into file and we lost all obb data of all games.
So here is the guide how can you solve this issue by following below steps.
1) Install Xposed framework for Oreo Roms from below link depending on your Android OS Version.
https://www.xda-developers.com/xposed-framework-for-android-oreo-beta/
2) Then go to the playstore and install "Obb on sd" for xposed.
3) Activate the xposed module and Reboot your phone.
4) Download any of your favorite games which contains Obb Data.
5) Then copy Android folder from your internal storage to External sdCard as it is.
6) Open "ObbOnSd" app and go to settings of this app.
7) Select all option and that's it.
The above guide is Personally tested by me. Kindly follow above guide at your own risk.

Every custom rom has this issue and dont know what can be the cause of this issue..
will have to wait and use xposed framework untill someone solves this issue....

I've noticed something in case it helps anyone.
The issue described in this thread seems only to happen to me after connecting to WiFi and downloading apps from the play store. I went several days and several restarts without it, then today I connected to WiFi and downloaded some apps, now it is present.
Can anyone give any more ideas about why (or even IF) this could happen?

with magisk module Magic Folder Binder you can bind you obb folder to your sdcard

Right. Yes, if we have a microsd card...
