Hi to all devs involved in this really interesting project.
I'm CM user. When I just discovered the ROM I was very exited as it gave me more or less the same feeling than I had when I discovered Linux. Nevertheless, the recent turn of events and decisions made in Cyanogenmod (now Inc) are less than thrilling in terms of freedom, innovation possibilities and ultimately, users involvement.
Thus, I'm really interested on OMNI as a project. Despite the fact that I have no clue on android development (programming, design, etc.) I would like to see support for the phone I'm currently using, in order to collaborate with testing, or bug reporting, or anything that can be provided by a end user type of user like myself.
Congrats and good luck with the project! :laugh:

woo.. sounds good..
and is this project was going on now?? :confuse:

Yes please!
Please
can't wait...! please..!
This is like a no brainer..
The most bought phone of the year, with newest android version for the GE..
This should be the premier device to get the OmniROM's love.
People are working on various devices in the jf family, but being a Samsung it's a pain in the ass.
Right now it, along with nearly any other device that uses blobs for the sensor HAL, are having serious issues with sensors.

Why is Samsung always considered as a pain in the ass? hehe I kinda like my S4 lol
I'm another CM user that would try the OmniROM! I'm looking for stable ROMs

because Samsung is very reluctant in offering sources. Thus making the work 1000x harder or even impossible.

In addition, even on devices that are using chipsets that are well documented, Samsung always hacks things up. Standards mean nothing to them.
For example, the PROPER way to implement a light sensor is to have the HAL report the maximum value that the sensor can ever report. On the GS2 this was something like 16000 lux.
The way Samsung implemented it?
HAL reports 2000 lux maximum, happily reports values above 2000 lux, framework apparently is hacked to ignore whatever the HAL says.
With their GPS HALs, they added an extra field to the satellite status struct that broke all satellite status reporting until I spent 4-5 evenings reverse engineering it. On every device I've seen that field is always zero - it does nothing, has no way of being reported to apps or the frameworks, but breaks anyone who tries to talk to the GPS HAL using the "standard" interface.
And yes - Qualcomm deviates from the "standard" interface here too - but they document their changes to the header file on CodeAurora.
I'm using the great OmniROM since some hours on my 9505 LTE. It's working very good so far. Much better then CM 11.
Unfortunately the actual nightly from yesterday can't be downloaded - skips when reaching 20,5 kB

Now that they've released the open source files for KitKat ( http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=search&searchValue=I9505G_NA_KK ) can we have a proper super-duper OmniROM rom for jfltexx ?

Hi guys,
Is there any chance of seeing Android 5.0 lollipop on this device.
Sorry if this is a repost.
Thank you
Noooooope.
Can any of the developers to port the art to any of our phone? Because this time is with full features and well optimised. It would increase stability more than it is in this moment . I would to like to see that effort that it would be made for this thing to be possible. Everything is possible if you really want
NOTE FOR EVERYBODY
Copy & paste this answer in any thread like this.
Android 5.0 Lollipop from Team Canjica probably will never see the light. In our opinion, Galaxy S Advance and in generally STE-based devices are too weak to handle well another Android major release.
The fact is that more time passes, more OS and applications become heavier and complex.
Was a pain to get a "stable" (between quotes since still has some issues like huge battery drain, that can't be fixed) Kitkat.
Another major release means heavier, more complex, CPU even with OC is too slow to handle and execute well threads, RAM memory is too little and this means lags, impossibility to run big apps and the Mali 400 single core GPU is too weak for more complex graphic effects in games that will come and especially in transitions between menus, pull down status bar etc. The last perfect major release for this device is Jelly Bean 4.3, to build any major release means that we need to research and find (with A LOT OF TESTING) how to fix bugs, means that we need to develop new OMX patches to make camera and videos working. KitKat is okay but huge battery drain and a lot of lags are signal that it's the last major release that these STE devices can handle in a non-stable way against JB 4.3 that it's almost (to not say "totally") stable. Now, stop a moment and imagine Lollipop, totally ruined user experience. Do you wanna live together with device lagging 99/100 times (1/100 without lags rightly after power on, maybe) and with charger always connected? We should be lords of our devices, not slaves. Nobody of us still uses a STE device and without is totally impossible to develop what has never been developed, if you want to keep updated I'm sure that you would change device asap, today even a 100€ device is more powerful than these. Janice will be 3 years old on April 2015, it's just the future coming...
We loved this device, development, known good guys here... Officially this device died on 4.1, Team Canjica gave you 3 major releases!!!

Completely !
@AntaresOne @Rox
Thats sad and brutal true.
O our device is not a tytan of performance .
But still (IF u look and test all CM builds (starting form CM 10) u will see that CM 11 is the most stable.
On jellybean roms (CM based) there are bugs that were fixed in KITKAT.
As AntaresOne told our device is anable (propably) to boot android 5.0/CM 12 . But whats the point od having phone thats compleatly out of RAM and need charger after 5 hours in deepsleep ?
But still having bootnable lolipop will be interesting (for testing).

What I meant is yes, KK ROMs are stable about bugs (except huge battery drain), but in the performance profile? They're very fast but just some minutes and will start to lag...
Galaxy S Advance may surely boot Lollipop, but can't handle well!
Inviato dal mio GT-I9505
And fix 4.3 bugs?
Will be awesome, Rox did it for codina and work so good.
I think it'd be awesome to get on stable build of cm10.1 since so many say it is fast with good battery life. Personally I haven't tried it due to the remaining bugs.

I can't believe finally our s advance will not receive android lollipop; i must agree, why there are some older and less performant device which receive cyanogenmode 12????i think s advance still has. Some potential,( although his age); it was (and still) my first android phone, i think it is a great phone ...it will remain forever in my mind... I just remeber when yuo develop cyanogen mode 11 android kitkat ,and i flash it, ....you did a miracle! Actually i still use it, no bug(just a little sometimes), no lags, work very fine, so let the miracle repeat!
I think the fault was of samsung tha wasn't clement with this device (samsung suck).., they release a very awfull upgrade , very very bad, a lot of bug, at the time, it lag also to reproduce video, on browser web...it was unusable, so thi was the reason why i installed cyanogen mode; so i hope, you will hear our prayers...let the miracle repeat again!!!

Hi All,
Has our old clunky chunky device, known affectionately to us as... N7000 or more friendlier by Galaxy Note.
As mentioned previously, support for our aging device seems to be drying up to an almost non-existent drip, as previously mentioned here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note/help/calling-developers-make-t2924117/post56401521#post56401521
Thankfully, we still have the wonderful Bauner, and (forgotten the guys name... but will look it up, for Resurrection Remix) but other than that, it seems all other developers, and all other groups who made roms for our device, have given up on us now... Not seen any new updated KitKats, or Lollipops for a long long time...
Does this mean the end to our device, or (despite the amazing work, ONE GUY has done so far) that if CyanogenMod or Omni officially support us again, some where far far down the road (in Narnia) that our devices, will once again gain the attention and love they so need....
Sure, our devices are old now compared to other kit... But wasnt this the joy of Android, that its so open and adaptable... Heck, I have a old ZTE Blade (2009) and that still gets some KitKat love now and again...
I know it all depends on whether a maintainer still owns the device, and of course the time it takes... But is this normal for a new Android OS, and that to get official support takes time... Or have we been dropped off, left alone, tossed to the corner of the road, to make way for new devices??
Many thanks, Lister
My device runs nice with always the latest cm11 nightlies. Don't know where your problem is? Let's face it... The n7000 is one really old phone! Never had a phone running this long before. Always got a new one after 2 years. I'm absolutely satisfied with cm11. New OS are for new phones... ?

Just wondering what other developers have decided or shown interest in grabbing a OnePlus 3. I am thinking of getting one, but the cost is a bit steep to just support a device that I may not even use as a daily device. If there is a small amount of developers, I will be more likely to get one because I believe that users deserve to use their phone how they want, not how the OEM wants them to. This is more or less a roll call to see who will be supporting the device from a dev standpoint.

Yes, please consider - early adopters will lure more and more devs for sure.
And OP is dev-friendly too (according to the OP - you won't void your warranty by flashing custom ROMs/Kernels).

My problem is the price point still for a device that I I'll likely be supporting to ensure users get what they want rather than using it as a daily driver for a while. I support several Nexus devices and have done a bit on each OnePlus device in the past. I just want it to be a feasible purchase considering how large my support roster is already.

I can perfectly understand that. You - like me - do like to do things either perfectly or at least v. good or better leave them be if they are only 'ok'.
Nevertheless - please do consider. I am not promising anything but my guts tell me OP3 will have a larger userbase than the OP2.
And again - no promises - but I like beer and also like to send 'virtual beer/pizzas' to the devs I feel are putting big efforts to keep the users happy. Probably other humble users too :highfive:
Would be killer to have you onboard.

To be honest, I'm pretty sure that this device will attract a lot of devs, both kernel and rom wise. So while I'd love to have the dark side on board, you shouldn't stress your budget when you're not planning to use the phone. Just my $0.02.

For right now I will blind build a kernel and try to get kexec working. If I somehow get the budget to grab one, I will. I hear there is a BrokenOS coming, but do not ask anyone about it, just wait for a release. I will not bring UBER ROMs to this device because we do not run CAF based sources.

Just a friendly request, please keep on One rom and maintain it well. I am sure that many devs will come for OP3 because of its open nature and having a unofficial port of their rom might discourage them. So, please, focus on quality rather than quantity. I don't doubt that you can maintain 2 roms. But, as you are more with Beanstalk, please continue with it. You can go for maintaining more roms one source for custom roms gets stable and no dev from a particular rom comes. Don't take it wrong but just a friendly request.
Thanks.
And BTW, better if you maintain only for the devices you have. And if you are maintaining for a device you don't even have, maintaining more than 1 rom for it becomes too weird and not good for the device users as you won't be able to contribute much to device specific stuff that way. So, if you don't own device, for now, it will be better if you just maintain one rom at max so that some developer who owns device can maintain and he doesn't get discouraged (happened with op2 and happens with opx too)

I agree, it is hard to maintain several projects at once for one device, let alone a few. IIRC, a lot of you come across from other OP devices too, not sure if you are dropping support on previous devices.

Good. Though I think for better support to users, one, especially a kernel developer, must have the device. Users can't always get the best of bug reports and it becomes a lot hectic to support devices (like it happened on OP2 ) Infact, it doesn't give a good pressing on a developer's image to be honest. Take your decision but believe me, it will be better if you get the device and maintain.
Thanks.

I think you know me. Remember me from one group we created ? I think of you can get a device, do support it. Infact, in one way, people support of you support them. So, get a device, support the device and a lot chances are that people will support you and you might be able to overcome all expenditures on the device. And believe me, many devs told me this too. And I know your kernel from 6P. Will be great if you can support, and prolly you *might* have a surprise too (I am not saying anything, but, well) . We do need your support, but it will be best if you can support when you have a device too. It will generate people's trust upon you and also you won't need to get with wrong bug reports.

It might sound ridiculous, but let me and my development team (my close relatives which do have their down work) begin our biggest project yet - porting Touchwiz Camera for AOSP ROMS (or at least every feature which are available on stock Touchwiz). Our goal is simple - bring glorious Touchwiz camera and it's bells and whistles to AOSP ROMs, let it be Lineage or Resurrection Remix, it doesn't matter. We began our development and we will consider using Magisk as an option of getting this to work.
Be aware, that this project might never come to life (trust me, if developers couldn't bring all of our camera features to AOSP, then it's obvious how difficult it is to accomplish this). It might even require to edit the entire AOSP for this to work.
As everyone know, Touchwiz camera is closely related to Touchwiz framework, so as a consequence it closely relies on that code written. AOSP has a completely different CameraHAL for making camera even to work. So, yeah. OnePlus One has something similar already accomplished, so our goal is exactly the same.
All of the development progress will be posted here.
And please note, that this is our hobby job, not a full-time job, so when there is free time to spare, we'll spend it doing this crazy project to work and move forward.

Thanks for all your great words!
On the flip side, we had many difficulties, starting from bootloop issues to camera stop working even with stock ROM. We are still doing some progress. Logcats and tons of trials and errors helped us out. Moving slowly forward.
Sorry for being off quite recently. Busy working and doing personal stuff.
Progress update:
Nougat is an utter a**. Not only it would be next to impossible to make video recording work (photo capturing is a much easier job), it would take years to make it work. We are searching for some counter measures now. Looks like horrible roadmap is coming up next to our door. We are prepared.
Reserve engineering is as prominent as my need to eat. I know it does not make much sense, but I think you get the idea. Thanks for the support you all.

Are you reverse engineering with IDA? there was a developer working on the s6 I think it was who reverse engineered and found many factory variables that were called on during certain camera processes and managed to implement them into the camera wrapper in a "dirty" fashion that wouldn't get approved to be official. It did seem though he improved the camera a lot by using factory light sensing and focusing calls he found from the reverse engineering. Id bet our s5 uses many of those same functions and names, i'll see if I can dig that thread it. It was shared in the lineage 14.1 thread.
Wow this is a amazing info
The bad camera in resurrectionremix is the only part, why I don't use this awesome rom on my S7.
Take your time and hopefully you rock it

Yeah, reserve engineering is our only way out. It's not possible to achieve anything in a simple fashion. I would definitely call this project a win if we at least succeed making 1080p60 to work properly, other things like fast focusing and other things might come as well, since the dynamic range on LOS completely sucks. Pictures look dead.
BTW, if what you are saying about S6 is correct, our job might become a lot easier. I believe S6 has a different camera sensor calibration from the get-go, even if the sensor is identical (minus the OIS). If those variables are accessible to us, we might get some incredible results. Of course, with a lot of patience.
And for your own convenience, I won't ask for any donations. Why? My words speak for themselves. I don't want to rob your money. And as plus, I would lose my confidence.
Wishing u and ur team the best of luck with this project fingers crossed

Spoiler: How to improve GPS
You could use a gps.conf from https://app.box.com/s/w57s1v1n3hie7l5lk28i for your location and replace /system/etc/gps.conf.
Or you try GPS Server Optimizer app for a faster 3D fix.
For both methods you need root rights.

After reading a bit, it sounds good! Though I wonder if it has more customizations than LineageOS, as I know LineageOS is basically cyanogenmod but I have noticed there none of those cool features cyanogenmod had in the newer versions of LineageOS.
I had never read about it before, but it looks like it could be interesting

/e/ isn't for customizations, they're more concerned about security/moving away from Google. I've used it before & the customization features are minimal, nothing more than Lineage.
That being said, it's a great ROM but I'll probably stick with @html6405 build of Lineage instead.
Thx for your answeres,
I'm curious how the rest thinks about it.
Thank you for your hard work to create great ROMs.
I am more looking forward to get Android 10/11 than /e/
Yes, I want /e/ as I'm moving away from Google.
I've setup a little netbook as a local Nextcloud server already, so having /e/ on all of my devices would be great!
Ok,
I will wait until next year, if we have more interested persons than 4 (like now ),
you will get it.

Hopefully people are interested then! I can't hardly wait to try out /e/
Google needs a huge reckoning, and the more users running non-Googled OSes... the better!
e would be great but is ubuntu touch possible ?
Yes - I would be interested to try. I looked at /e/ and it did look promising.

I began with ubuntu touch a year ago, but I didn't proceed because of so many incompatibilities. (but it should be possible)
Anyone think it is a good idea of making Android 11 based /e/-foundation rom for those needed?

This would also be possible, but I don't know when they will start to publish /e/ on android 11 based and for this, I first have to bring LOS18.1 stable.
/e/ would be great! Heard about it recently and it sounded like something i would appreciate. The less google the better...
I also want to seize the opportunity to ask if there are any plans for making roms for note 5100/5110/5120. From what i understand it is basically the same device as Note 10.1, but smaller (it's Note 8.0). Amazing little thing! But alas, stuck at LOS14. Which works great, btw, spinning fast and glitch-free, but the further android development seems dead.
Lots of sad users on the forum, including me.. (i do own a N8000 too tho..)
If you could find time for porting some of your work from N8000 to N5100, that would be realy awesome of you! Especially since it probably wouldn't take all that much time since what i understand the devices are practically identical.
You would make plenty of people happy and i would of course donate directly!

A bit offtopic but still: the SOC is indeed the same as in most Exynos devices from that time and which is the least problem as the issues have been solved for those other devices, but then there is a lot of differences in the hardware. From touchscreen, display, multiple sensors, one of the cameras and the charger those are all different, probably more parts as I only quickly looked over the hardware details, and this is where quite some work is hidden.
Aside from that, releasing a ROM without having at least one device for testing locally is not really feasible. It's not automatically that if it builds it also boots and/or works, that would be too easy.

Sorry about OT. This felt least wrong thread to write this in... You dev html6405?
I know things work like you wrote, and it's not as easy i made it sound. Sorry for that, i know It is always a lot of work.

I'm sure that it would be 100% possible, but I don't own this device,
like Don Carnage wrote it wouldnt make much sense just to build anything without the ability of testing it.
If i think about, I know that at least I would have to overwork the existing sensor hal, maybe audio (if its also different), some driver's and much more.
I already thought about this some month ago and tried to buy a used device, but they are very rare at our location.
If someone would donate a device, I would try it, only then it would make any sense.
But yes, this is OT here, but you can write me a PM if you want to know more.

Well I would be glad to test for you! I can't donate my device, as I don't have multiple of these though... but I can possibly send you logs.
You can post it as an "untested" ROM on the /e/ forums BTW. Maybe others there would test for you. I'm actually testing an "untested" /e/ ROM for one of my other devices. So far that ROM looks pretty f**king awesome! I get better battery life on it, and there's an even deeper control of privacy over LOS.
I don't know, but maybe you could order one from eBay? I just did a search for "n8013" and found a few listings like this one for example... https://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-Ga...sh=item3ff2ab2fee:g:~wwAAOSwiSpgCKcN&LH_BIN=1
As time goes on, I have come to hate and despise Google. They've been doing evil things (Project Veritas has plenty of evidence of this) and Android is becoming more and more locked down/proprietary with a "look, but don't touch" attitude. Even Samsung has just recently started barring third party replacement parts too, joining Apple in this greedy "planned obsolescence" mantra! These older devices without all that crap IMHO are just getting better lol. Yes, they might be slower; but at least we still keep useful legacy features and we can tinker with our devices a bit!
I'm wanting to rip out as much Google as I can from my life and have ownership of my data. I've already taken some steps towards that goal, as I have obtained an old netbook that I've repurposed as a local server.

This was ment for n51XX devices, but anyway, maybe it would be good to start build /e/ based on android 9, because it runs very smooth and on android 11 I still have much more work todo.
