Be aware that improper usage of kernel features can cause serious damage to your device!
Only use the stuff above if you know what you're doing!
In agreement with the GPL, you can find the sources and defconfig used to compile this kernel right here.
Known Issues:
Please keep in mind that CM12.1 sources are still work in progress. As a result, some features may be broken or only partially working.
That's why I decided to only list device-specific issues below.
Below ~60% battery, the displayed battery level will reduce significantly on rebooting. This is a known issue with all AOSP based ROMs.
After switching to a new battery, I noticed this behavior is related to automatic battery calibration and directly affected by the health of your phone's battery.
Disclaimer:
By downloading and installing this ROM, you agree that I cannot be held responsible for any damage caused to your device while installing or using it. Please keep in mind that it's YOU who chose to do these modifications to your device!
Installation:
Make sure your bootloader is unlocked - if not, follow this guide: Link
First installation? Flash the boot.img from ROM zip via Flashtool (use Fastboot mode!)
Boot into TWRP recovery
Do a factory reset and wipe system partition
Flash latest ROM zip (check "Downloads" section)
Flash suitable GApps for CM12.1
Flash latest SuperSU from here: Link
Reboot
Downloads:
Final CM12.1 version: Link (Last updated: Jan 08, 2016)

Working good so far, it's got the extra settings/customization that the only other build for TX lacks. No problems so far with bootloops, data restore, etc. except for the issue I think was already mentioned in the T thread, in which TWRP doesn't reboot and hangs if you press the "reboot" button too soon.
:good:

hi
I Installed last version of TX rom
Now Bug Report:
1- in mobile network operation i can't See 2G Or 3G mode and select it manually
2- in USB OTG cable when connect NTFS USB format Device was reset (in FAT32 was no problem) / in OTG USB mode no icon shown on top of display
3- i can't set any picture in user account (owner)

There are enough Xperia apps out there already. Any app that works with CM12 on any phone should work with this specific ROM, too.

Look here.
https://www.google.de/search?btnG=1&pws=0&q=xperia+apps+cm12.1+site:forum.xda-developers.com
Camera button stuff is one of the features that have to be added in upstream sources first.

1 problem by this device is low storage for app installing
this device have 16Gig Storage
but we can install 2Gig app!
if you can Increase this storage many of problems was solved
(for example my galaxy tab have 16gig storage and i can install 16gig app on my device)
thank you

Hi. Got to hand the phone. I want to upgrade to the current release. Can I rolled forward as an upgrade, or better to install as the installation for the first time? Or enough to make a backup and then to roll back? (exactly what to back up that it include?)
sorry for my bad english.

Check the instructions in third post
You can always do a backup before updating, but I test the builds before upload, so a bootloop or other issues are quite unlikely.

[DEV][ROM][4.4.4][KTU84Q] Unofficial CyanogenMod 11 | RC5 | 05/05/2015

Not working
- FM radio.
- Apps that expect newer libOMXVidEnc will not work, Skype is one example. Viber and WhatsApp are working.
- do not use stock browser for serious browsing, although it is working, it has bugs with adreno libs. For 2-step authentication on Google, it will do.
Upstream issues
SDCard not showing unmount option
Trebuchet crashing when you enable CM Home or Google Search as panel
Cyanogenmod stock camera app shows 4.5mp instead of 5 mp - camera works properly with other third party apps and takes 5MP pictures.

How to install:
You must update recovery with this one - TWRP 2.8.6.0 or this one Philz Touch 6.59.0 - ClockWorkMod 6.0.5.1- these two have SELinux support. Philz and CWM do not have support for F2Fs!
Install the recovery trough fastboot
- fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Reboot to recovery from fastboot
- make a backup of your current ROM to SDCard
- wipe -> do a factory reset
- wipe -> advanced wipe -> select only system and wipe
- install zips (rom and gapps)
- reboot to bootloader
if you are updating from previous CM11, you can dirty flash -> just wipe /system in Wipe -> Advanced Wipe, and install rom and gapps. No guarantees here.
Install boot image
fastboot flash boot boot.img
install boot.img that is inside the ROM that you downloaded
do not do fastboot erase cache
As of RC5, ROM now supports both EXT4 and F2FS in a same installation, and there is an easy way to switch back and forth between full EXT4 and F2FS setup, or any partition layout you would like (why would someone want this, I do not know, but the option is there).
Switching to F2FS from EXT4:
- You must install TWRP 2.8.6.0 with F2FS support.
- install RC5 and gapps (optionally), flash boot.img and restart. Check that the ROM is working properly. Activate advanced reboot in developer options. Reboot to recovery.
- backup - make a nandroid backup of system, data and cache.
- wipe, advanced wipe - select system - change or repair file system - choose F2FS. Repeat this for data and cache.
- settings -> Check use rm -rf instead of format.
- restore -> this will restore your data to existing partitions without format.
- settings -> Uncheck use rm -rf instead of format.
- reboot
You will boot to full F2FS ROM, with all your data and settings intact. Check it out in terminal with
mount | grep f2fs
How to build:
Up to date sources on github. (one patch for legacyMod frameworks_av is missing, will update device tree soon)
1. Follow instructions on initializing a build environment up to a point of downloading the source code.
2. Initialize CyanogenMod 11 repo.
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm-11.0
3. Add local manifest that downloads HTC Desire C device config, properties and kernel source from my github and few CM replacement projects from legaCyMod github.
Code:
curl --create-dirs -L -o .repo/local_manifests/local_manifest.xml -O -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/high1/android_local_manifest/cm-11.0/local_manifest.xml
4. Sync source code.
Code:
repo sync
5. Update prebuilts
Code:
cd path-to/cm11/vendor/cm/
./get-prebuilts
6. Apply patches
Code:
path-to/cm11/device/htc/golfu/patches./apply.sh
7. Compile.
Code:
cd path-to/cm11/
. build/envsetup.sh
brunch cm_golfu-userdebug -jx
(x is number of your processor cores -+1)
'repo sync' to pull merged changes from upstream.
'make clobber' to clean the build environment.
Repeat step 7 to make a new build.
FAQ:
Q: I can't find developer options and performance settings, why?
A: Settings -> About phone -> Click 'Build number' several times
Q: I don't have reboot options in power menu, why?
A: Settings -> Developer options -> Advanced reboot
Q: Is ART runtime working?
A: Yes it is. Beware, it is not compatible with xposed framework.
Q: How to make fastboot and adb work with Windows 8.1? (Device enumeration failed error)
A: First, make sure you have this update installed - http://www.microsoft.com/en-pk/download/details.aspx?id=43515 . Unzip http://goo.gl/CAXglZ and merge it to your registry. HTC drivers must be installed, compatible with Windows 8.1 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2714921
Q: USB tethering does not work?
A: Here is a guide: Android USB Tethering In Windows 8.1

This all would not be possible without help - I looked up alot to KonstaT that makes CyanogenMod for ZTE Blade III, and a lof of this post is taken from his way of posting. KirmaniArslan helped to solve quite a few quirks, and posted patches actively, and started the development - his device tree was made bootable.
I expect logcats from all who will do testing, and hopefully we can fix the remaining bugs and let this device have fully working Cyanogenmod (Omni, Pacman, AOKP hopefully later). Also, with the release, you have full permission to use the source to build other ROMs, only requirement is that if you find a fix, you do a pull request at Github.
Regards, and enjoy the ROM as much as you can.

So. As for me.
Adb doesnt work at first boot, so i can't get logcat. All logs what i have - TWRP log.
Cyclic reboot. It works for 2-3 sec and reboots. ANd i cant even look at settings or enable debugging. 2sec and reboot. One thing i'm shure its not from overheating =(
upd:
ok... boot in safe mode gives me 2 extra seconds.. and... there is no developers menu. it is locked. and i cant unlock it.
upd2: nope. i definitely can't attach rom Log and Ksmg.

Try the boot.img inside the ROM then. But it should not behave like that. Wipe the system along with the factory reset.

I'm having problems with TWRP v 2.8.0.0 recovery. I was using clokwork before and after flashing my log gets spammed with couldn't mount emmc. Adding full log
Adding link to pastebin, because for some strange reason I got error in forum that file was invalid
http://pastebin.com/iRgFm13z
Sorted out this issue, but rom seems to be stuck on bootloop.
Added logcat

Ok. For me "How to install" must looks like:
1. Install the recovery trough fastboot
2. Reboot to recovery from fastboot
3. install zip
4. reboot to bootloader
5. Install boot image
6. reboot
Mb is is caused by S-OFF, but I rly need to flash kernel only after flashing zip. Work with "normal" kernel.
Upd1: Does ART works? Cause it looks like it works.
Upd2: OMG ART rly works. Can't belive it =)

Flashing the ROM does not affect boot partition, because of S-OFF. Order of instalation (boot image first) should not affect booting. I enabled zRAM kitkat style in latest build, as you requested - we are compliant with Google recommendations for low RAM devices now. I forgot to say, yes but ART is working without any problems, as long as apps work with it.

ART it's rly cool surprise =) Nice =)
As for S-OFF, i rly think u cant make changes with boot if u phone is S-ON. When u swith it to S-OFF u can make changes from recovery. Any way i have no other explanation, why order is important for me. i'll try to test it =)
UPD: is there any trick in win8 for adb? cause for me adb works only from my linux laptop.

Yes, there is. Import this in your registry - you must have a patch with workaround installed, http://www.microsoft.com/en-pk/download/details.aspx?id=43515
extract reg file from attached zip and merge it to your registry.

I'm having problems with USB mass storage. First time when I click to turn it on, it unmounts sd card, but I'm not able to access sd-card file on PC. Second time I click loading loops forever.
Have anyone encountered similar problems?

It's ums file setting, looks like it. I chose MTP as default, as mass storage requires mounting, unmounting etc... Will be fixed in the next build. Thx.

Be aware that improper usage of kernel features can cause serious damage to your device!
Only use the stuff above if you know what you're doing!
In agreement with the GPL, you can find the sources and defconfig used to compile this kernel right here.
Known Issues:
Please keep in mind that CM12.1 sources are still work in progress. As a result, some features may be broken or only partially working.
That's why I decided to only list device-specific issues below.
Below ~60% battery, the displayed battery level will reduce significantly on rebooting. This is a known issue with all AOSP based ROMs.
After switching to a new battery, I noticed this behavior is related to automatic battery calibration and directly affected by the health of your phone's battery.
Disclaimer:
By downloading and installing this ROM, you agree that I cannot be held responsible for any damage caused to your device while installing or using it. Please keep in mind that it's YOU who chose to do these modifications to your device!

FAQ:
How to update to latest build?
1. Reboot to recovery
2. Flash latest rom zip
3. Flash latest gapps linked in OP
4. Flash SuperSU
5. Wipe Cache & Dalvik Cache
6. Reboot
How to safely uninstall this rom?
1. If you were using F2FS, revert to EXT4 before uninstalling!
2. Reboot to recovery
3. Flash neo-uninstall.zip
4. Proceed with the installation steps of your new rom
Should you face storage issues with your new rom, run the following Terminal commands:
Code:
su
chmod 777 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
chown 2800:2800 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
chown -R 2800:2800 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
Troubleshooting:
I can't create folders in internal storage!
Follow the instructions on updating to latest build. While flashing, my rom will apply its required storage permissions automatically.
Alternatively, you may simply run the following Terminal commands:
Code:
su
chmod 777 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
chown 1023:1023 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
chown -R 1023:1023 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
Camera any Gallery won't save my photos!
Follow the instructions on updating to latest build. While flashing, my rom will apply its required storage permissions automatically.
Alternatively, you may simply run the following Terminal commands:
Code:
su
chmod 777 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
chown 1023:1023 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
chown -R 1023:1023 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
I can't move apps to sdcard!
Moving apps to internal storage is quite buggy and discouraged. I recommend repartitioning your device with the instructions below.
Advanced Modifications:
Switching to F2FS:
First of all, make sure you're running homebuild version 20150215 or later!
1. Copy all important files from internal storage to the external sdcard
2. Reboot to recovery
3. Do a full backup (make sure to select external sdcard as target location)
4. Disable MTP in "Mount" menu
5. Go to "Wipe" > "Advanced Wipe" menu
6. Check "System", then tap "FS Options" and "Change FS"
7. Select "F2FS", then swipe to apply the change
8. Repeat steps 5 and 6 for "Data" and "Cache" partitions, as well as internal storage
9. Navigate to TWRP Settings and check "Use rm -rf instead of formatting"
10. Restore your previous backup
12. Reboot to system
13. Restore your copied files from external sdcard
14. Reboot
Reverting to EXT4:
1. Copy all important files from internal storage to the external sdcard
2. Reboot to recovery
3. Do a full backup (make sure to select external sdcard as target location)
4. Disable MTP in "Mount" menu
5. Go to "Wipe" > "Advanced Wipe" menu
6. Check "System", then tap "FS Options" and "Change FS"
7. Select "EXT4", then swipe to apply the change
8. Repeat steps 5 and 6 for "Data" and "Cache" partitions, as well as internal storage
9. Navigate to TWRP Settings and check "Use rm -rf instead of formatting"
10. Restore your previous backup
12. Reboot to system
13. Restore your copied files from external sdcard
14. Reboot
Repartitioning your device:
Note:
Up to 14GB of free space on external sdcard might be required to perform the steps below! (Should be less if your internal storage isn't completely bloated )
The value XXXX used below has to be replaced with a calculated number and varies depending on your desired space. I recommend 5120, as it's a decent balance between general data storage (used for most apps) and space on internal storage for apps with bigger data (games). Refer to step 13 of this link if you want to calculate your own partition sizes.
1. Copy all important files from internal storage to the external sdcard with the following terminal command:
Code:
rsync -P -a /sdcard /ext_card/sdcard0/
2. Reboot to recovery
3. Do a full backup (make sure to select external sdcard as target location)
4. Navigate to "Mount" menu, disable MTP and unmount all partitions listed there
5. Navigate to "Advanced" > "Terminal Command" and type the following code:
Code:
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 print
This command should display some text like this:
Code:
Model: MMC M8G2FB (sd/mmc)
Disk /dev/block/mmcblk0: 7818MB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: gpt
Number Start End Size File system Name Flags
1 131kB 2228kB 2097kB TA
2 2228kB 3801kB 1573kB Boot
3 3801kB 5374kB 1573kB Boot2
4 6291kB 27.3MB 21.0MB Kernel
5 27.3MB 28.3MB 1049kB TZ
6 29.4MB 32.5MB 3146kB modemst1
7 33.6MB 36.7MB 3146kB modemst2
8 37.7MB 40.9MB 3146kB fsg
9 40.9MB 46.1MB 5243kB ramdump
10 46.1MB 54.5MB 8389kB ext4 apps_log
11 54.5MB 71.3MB 16.8MB FOTAKernel
12 71.3MB 1359MB 1288MB System
13 1359MB 1621MB 262MB Cache
14 1621MB 3769MB 2147MB Userdata
15 3769MB 7818MB 4050MB SDCard
We're going to remove Userdata and SDCard partitions, so check if these partitions also have the numbers 14 and 15 on your phone.
6. Type the following terminal commands to proceed with resizing the partitions:
Code:
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 rm 14
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 rm 15
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpartfs logical ext2 1621 [B]XXXX[/B]
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 name 14 Userdata
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpartfs logical ext2 [B]XXXX[/B] 7818
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 name 15 SDCard
7. Leave the terminal screen and go to "Wipe" > "Advanced Wipe" menu
8. Check "Data", then tap "FS Options" and "Change FS"
9. Select "EXT4" or "F2FS", then swipe to apply the change
10. Repeat steps 8 and 9 for internal storage (is named "sdcard" in this menu)
11. Restore your previous backup
12. Restore your backed-up files from external sdcard with the following terminal command:
Code:
cp -a /external_sd/sdcard0/* /sdcard/
13. Reboot
14. Enter the following terminal commands to fix storage permissions:
Code:
su
chmod 777 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
chown 1023:1023 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
chown -R 1023:1023 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0

I know.. It seems like AFH had some problems with uploading.
By the way, rom is online.

With the whole "no working recovery included", does it mean that we cant flash one to FOTAkernel afterwards?
By the way, you are a freaking champion for releasing this ROM, and thanks for all the work you put into making our phones better

Just doing what I can.
However, I gotta mention that I would never have come that far without @updateing.
Once more huge thanks for your help!
FOTA recovery should work, as the phone boots properly into recovery. You may give this a shot, I remember having seen a FOTA TWRP version by championswimmer in Cross Device Forum. :good:
The problem is that the recovery is not CWM anymore. CyanogenMod team is developing their own recovery at the moment. And that one doesn't work (yet)

Download complete. Gapps server was really slow. For me it took 13 minutes to download only Gapps. Now I'm doing a full nandroid backup.
Edit 1 : Booted. WiFi, Bluetooth and Cellular works fine. I'll report more soon
Edit 2 : Report after 40 minutes of use : Fully stable. Other stuff including camera and root access work completely fine. I just had 1 setting FC at first. This ROM is smooth enough (not as much as expected Lool)
These are all of bugs I found :
1. Setting - bluetooth menu - when searching, that circle animation has some problems
2. Setting - Wireless & networks - More - Cellular networks - Carrier settings makes "com.android.phone" FC. (Maybe it's carrier related )
3. The most important bug I've found (not for me, but it can be a disaster for some others ) is Notification/Battery LED does not work at all.
By the way, I have functional CM Recovery. I was able to boot into recovery by selecting reboot recovery power menu. CM Recovery appeared. Even touch is working fine but there is no backup/restore related option.There was just apply update from zip and reboot.
After all, really thanks for your work it's awesome, as always

I think the carrier settings fc and led stuff is device related. Will try to fix it in next build. :good:
Booting in recovery works fine, but flashing does not work.
I'm sure CM team will fix this soon.

Installed in the morning.
Had no crushes yet, no bugs in animation that I`ve seen. However, power consumption is dramatically high compared to stock 4.3 JB. Most time processor runs at 1.5ghz.

Hi
It's my first time to post something so I don't know if I'm doing it right
So
First of all thank you for the ROM and the great work keep it up :good:
Second I found some other bugs Dunno if it's apps releated or something in the ROM itself
1. Gestures keyboard doesn't work
2. Google Play services keep asking to update it "and it's up to date"
3. Tap and hold doesnt work "quick toggles" in notification centre. and is it CM feature ?
An other question
When A new release is out can I flash CM11 kernel to flash the new release since I flashed it using CWM I was on CM11
P.S I didnt wipe data or system wipe just backed up the old ROM and flashed this one didn't want to re-install all apps etc..

Very good looking rom. Flashing right now, got first bootloop....because i flashed cm12 kernel. That was my fault. Now im already setting my device up.
Looks like LTE aslo working.
Any good ideas how to make navibar smaller? Xposed wont work with 5.0 as i know.

Bugs 1 and 3 are related to CM sources. Number two is most likely caused by your dirty installation. (Which I don't recommend, by the way)
Thats the plan.. Until CM recovery works we gotta fastboot NeoKernel and flash the update from its included recovery. :good:

LTE is working? That's great news! :good:

No idea how to resize the navbar, but I'm sure CM team will add a customnization option soon.

Temporary Fix for play service
Disable app notifications in settings
Again thank you @WhiteNeo :good:

In agreement with the GPL, you can find the sources and defconfig used to compile this kernel right here.
Known Issues:
Please keep in mind that CM12.1 sources are still work in progress. As a result, some features may be broken or only partially working.
That's why I decided to only list device-specific issues below.
Below ~60% battery, the displayed battery level will reduce significantly on rebooting. This is a known issue with all AOSP based ROMs.
After switching to a new battery, I noticed this behavior is related to automatic battery calibration and directly affected by the health of your phone's battery.
Disclaimer:
By downloading and installing this ROM, you agree that I cannot be held responsible for any damage caused to your device while installing or using it. Please keep in mind that it's YOU who chose to do these modifications to your device!

FAQ:
How to update to latest build?
1. Reboot to recovery
2. Flash latest rom zip
3. Flash latest gapps linked in OP
4. Flash SuperSU
5. Wipe Cache & Dalvik Cache
6. Reboot
How to safely uninstall this rom?
1. If you were using F2FS, revert to EXT4 before uninstalling!
2. Reboot to recovery
3. Flash neo-uninstall.zip
4. Proceed with the installation steps of your new rom
Should you face storage issues with your new rom, run the following Terminal commands:
Code:
su
chmod 777 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
chown 2800:2800 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
chown -R 2800:2800 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
Troubleshooting:
I can't create folders in internal storage!
Follow the instructions on updating to latest build. While flashing, my rom will apply its required storage permissions automatically.
Alternatively, you may simply run the following Terminal commands:
Code:
su
chmod 777 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
chown 1023:1023 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
chown -R 1023:1023 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
Camera any Gallery won't save my photos!
Follow the instructions on updating to latest build. While flashing, my rom will apply its required storage permissions automatically.
Alternatively, you may simply run the following Terminal commands:
Code:
su
chmod 777 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
chown 1023:1023 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
chown -R 1023:1023 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
I can't move apps to sdcard!
Moving apps to internal storage is quite buggy and discouraged. I recommend repartitioning your device with the instructions below.
Advanced Modifications:
Switching to F2FS:
First of all, make sure you're running homebuild version 20150215 or later!
1. Copy all important files from internal storage to the external sdcard
2. Reboot to recovery
3. Do a full backup (make sure to select external sdcard as target location)
4. Disable MTP in "Mount" menu
5. Go to "Wipe" > "Advanced Wipe" menu
6. Check "System", then tap "FS Options" and "Change FS"
7. Select "F2FS", then swipe to apply the change
8. Repeat steps 5 and 6 for "Data" and "Cache" partitions, as well as internal storage
9. Navigate to TWRP Settings and check "Use rm -rf instead of formatting"
10. Restore your previous backup
12. Reboot to system
13. Restore your copied files from external sdcard
14. Reboot
Reverting to EXT4:
1. Copy all important files from internal storage to the external sdcard
2. Reboot to recovery
3. Do a full backup (make sure to select external sdcard as target location)
4. Disable MTP in "Mount" menu
5. Go to "Wipe" > "Advanced Wipe" menu
6. Check "System", then tap "FS Options" and "Change FS"
7. Select "EXT4", then swipe to apply the change
8. Repeat steps 5 and 6 for "Data" and "Cache" partitions, as well as internal storage
9. Navigate to TWRP Settings and check "Use rm -rf instead of formatting"
10. Restore your previous backup
12. Reboot to system
13. Restore your copied files from external sdcard
14. Reboot
Repartitioning your device:
Note:
Up to 14GB of free space on external sdcard might be required to perform the steps below! (Should be less if your internal storage isn't completely bloated )
The value XXXX used below has to be replaced with a calculated number and varies depending on your desired space. I recommend 5120, as it's a decent balance between general data storage (used for most apps) and space on internal storage for apps with bigger data (games). Refer to step 13 of this link if you want to calculate your own partition sizes.
1. Copy all important files from internal storage to the external sdcard with the following terminal command:
Code:
rsync -P -a /sdcard /ext_card/sdcard0/
2. Reboot to recovery
3. Do a full backup (make sure to select external sdcard as target location)
4. Navigate to "Mount" menu, disable MTP and unmount all partitions listed there
5. Navigate to "Advanced" > "Terminal Command" and type the following code:
Code:
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 print
This command should display some text like this:
Code:
Model: MMC MAG2GA (sd/mmc)
Disk /dev/block/mmcblk0: 15.6GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: gpt
Number Start End Size File system Name Flags
1 131kB 2228kB 2097kB TA
2 2228kB 3801kB 1573kB Boot
3 3801kB 5374kB 1573kB Boot2
4 6291kB 27.3MB 21.0MB Kernel
5 27.3MB 28.3MB 1049kB TZ
6 29.4MB 32.5MB 3146kB modemst1
7 33.6MB 36.7MB 3146kB modemst2
8 37.7MB 40.9MB 3146kB fsg
9 40.9MB 46.1MB 5243kB ramdump
10 46.1MB 54.5MB 8389kB ext4 apps_log
11 54.5MB 71.3MB 16.8MB FOTAKernel
12 71.3MB 1359MB 1288MB System
13 1359MB 1621MB 262MB Cache
14 1621MB 3769MB 2147MB Userdata
15 3769MB 15.6GB 11.9GB SDCard
We're going to remove Userdata and SDCard partitions, so check if these partitions also have the numbers 14 and 15 on your phone.
6. Type the following terminal commands to proceed with resizing the partitions:
Code:
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 rm 14
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 rm 15
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpartfs logical ext2 1621 [B]XXXX[/B]
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 name 14 Userdata
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpartfs logical ext2 [B]XXXX[/B] 15.6GB
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 name 15 SDCard
7. Leave the terminal screen and go to "Wipe" > "Advanced Wipe" menu
8. Check "Data", then tap "FS Options" and "Change FS"
9. Select "EXT4" or "F2FS", then swipe to apply the change
10. Repeat steps 8 and 9 for internal storage (is named "sdcard" in this menu)
11. Restore your previous backup
12. Restore your backed-up files from external sdcard with the following terminal command:
Code:
cp -a /external_sd/sdcard0/* /sdcard/
13. Reboot
14. Enter the following terminal commands to fix storage permissions:
Code:
su
chmod 777 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
chown 1023:1023 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
chown -R 1023:1023 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0

Loving you right now,as this is a new version of Android, if I am coming from 4.4 KK do I need to flash boot.img before right?
Thanks

Now I am in my village without a working internet until January, sorry, I'll see if I managed to download your ROM somehow, I can't wait!?
Happy New Year!

Yes, At last... I'm downloading and testing this right away i've been waiting for this

bro what can i say..you did it! your the man! thank you so much!! Working like a dream!

Thanks mate
Really, thank you WhiteNeo!
Actually: Why is it in "original Android dev"?

Been running for a few hours and i just want to congratulate you once again!
just one minor thing that im sure you already know but i'll point out ..keyboard gesture isn't working..
That's literally the only thing i have noticed that is not working

Because it's built from sources and so on and so forth.

So in this case 'original' means the AOSP sources? I thought it meant sth like 'based on the original (=stock) ROM'.
@WhiteNeo: Is it possible to link the sources?
Found Bugs (CM or device specific?):
- Calculator Button Widget behaves strangely (not the 'big' widget)
- Themes Showcase doesn't change tab (eg. to Wallpapers) and Options makes it crash.
Both theme to be general issues I think

Keyboard gesture won't work on AOSP because it requires a proprietary lib by Google. You can install Google Keyboard to have the same look with swype
Alternatively, check my XV CM12 thread for the material Xperia keyboard I attached to one of my latest comments.

Thank you very much WhiteNeo. You are giving our phone a new live.
By the way, for people that has tried it yet, what about camera quality? Is it better than 4.4 cyanogen roms?

Google Search Bar
The Search bar sometimes has display issues, that is the icons on it arent displayed anymore.
On my previous post: It should be @WhiteNeo of course, didnt know it would automatically link it

All of the bugs that have been mentioned so far appear to be sources related, so no need to post them here.
I recommend creating a new issue at https://jira.cyanogenmod.org if you detect any bugs that are obviously not related to our phones' hardware.

Thanks for the build! The ROM is super smooth and bug free for me so far, except maybe the front camera being fuzzy when i tested it. I'm going to try and see how long i can live without xposed. Great work!
Oh wait.. snapshare doesn't work. ****!

I've got a glitch - mobile data is on, but the "H" symbol is gone. Meaning there is no "H". Up-and-down arrows are in place when data is being transmitted, but no "H". Other than that everything's just fine.

CyanogenMod 13 for the Sony Xperia Z5 E6653 and E6603
CyanogenMod is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 6.0 (Marshmallow), which is designed to increase
performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.
CyanogenMod is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be
used without any need to have any Google application installed. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps).
CyanogenMod does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.
Before you start
This ROM is only for the E6653 and the E6603
Code:
*
* Your warranty may be voided !
*
* 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.
*

(Known) Issues
Video Recording
Bluetooth (keeps restarting) (might be fixed, needs feedback + testing)
Camera Colors (can be circumvented by using specific apps CameraNext Mod )
Camera Focus & Sharpness (driver issue, probably since it uses Xperia Z (original) drivers but different lenses ?)
Camera lowlight pictures (might improve with release of Sony's "Experimental AOSP Camera" for the Z5 series, porting of other Framework + Stock Cam app; partially needs DRM magic)
Camera Focus (even with VCM2 actuator changes focus is still kind of murky)
Fingerprint sensor (might work depending on build date of ROM)
Lag after booting up device (Will resolve: lock screen after boot and waiting a few seconds)
Long bootup times & less smoothness with "stock" (prebuilt) kernel
What can not be fixed, changed - aka WONTFIX - NOTOURPROBLEM
There might be potential speed issues with Class 10+ microSD cards not properly being "tuned", in that case switch to slower cards or RMA it which should hopefully solve it. There is a possibility to force slower speeds on cards but that is not really the optimal solution with ultra speed cards and needs further investigation. Samsung (EVO/EVO+) cards, Transcend cards and a few others UHS-I(+) and faster are affected.
What has been Fixed
Horizontal color lines and color glitches during bootup
Gapps
Sudden Lag after some time
NFC
Odd calling numbers
In-call mic
Sound on calls
Camera button
Microphone
Thermal regulation
Red flashy frames
RIL (SIM detection)
Dex pre-optimization
Camera
Sensors
Crash after locking device
microSD access
Flash light / Torch
Full brightness (should be fully working)
Gapps (permissions issues) [occurs occasionally and should be circumvented by full-wipe approach (incl. internal storage)
Hang/Loop during boot stage (should be circumvented by full-wipe approach (incl. internal storage)) (use Custom Kernel, under investigation)
High battery drain [~ 10%-20% per hour] when dirty-flashing system (fastboot -S 256M flash system system.img), make sure to have data backed up, then format /data ; OTA updates should be fine though [need feedback] ); causes are: dirty flashing, certain apps, ROM issues, etc.

How to install CM 13
Above all - do a Backup of ALL your data
When I write ALL I mean ALL (this includes the data on your micro SD card,
don't come whining to me if you lose your wedding photos/videos, kids' photos/videos or other important stuff !
For optimal experience I'd recommend my built custom kernel (quicker boot times, higher reliability, more tweakability)
General, in-depth instructions
Download one of the newer Z5 AndroPlusKernels v20+ by @AndroPlus from his official website (Scroll down and select Z5, then on AndroidFileHost search for Z5_AndroPlusKernel_Permissive_v2 (v20 - v23) and download it)
Extract the flashable zip-file e.g. Z5_AndroPlusKernel_Permissive_v23.zip
Download our TWRP 3.0.1-0 build for the Z5)
Download the appropriate gapps from below (Can be downloaded on your device)
Download the CM 13 Zip for the Z5 from below (Can be downloaded on your device)
Move the GAPPS zip and the CM 13 to your Z5 if you haven't downloaded them on your device
Power Off your Z5 and wait about 10-15 seconds to make sure it's off
To enter fastboot mode hold VOL UP and while holding VOL UP connect your device to your pc via cable
When the notification LED has turned blue you are in fastboot mode
On your PC flash the boot.img that has been extracted from the Z5_AndroPlusKernel_Permissive_v23.zip using fastboot (
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
)
Now flash twrp-3.0.1-0-E6653-20160403.img by using fastboot (
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.1-0-E6653-20160403.img
)
Once both of those images have been flashed you can reboot the device like so:
Code:
fastboot reboot
Quickly pull the usb cable from the computer (you can leave the other end in the phone's port)
When booting up wait for the notification light to turn yellow at the Sony logo
Once it has turned yellow, you will enter TWRP by pressing VOL UP (or VOL DOWN - up works more reliably)
If you've missed the step above, reboot your device and try the step above again
Alternatively you can force turn off the device via: Power Button + Volume Up , then turn it on again via Power Button
If TWRP asks you to enable read and write, swipe to continue
Go to settings and lower the max brightness to the minimum or one of the lower levels to preserve energy
In TWRP make a full backup to the microSD in case you want to revert back to stock.
After it has finished, in this case Reboot -> System.
Copy over the TWRP folder from the external microSD to your computer (reason: you might not have access to your external SD or have to reformat it
Thank Microsoft, Sony, etc. for that: "Stock" ROM uses texfat , AOSP, CM, etc. uses exfat, ext4, ntfs
The files on the microSD might get corrupted (filesystem problem) or the microSD going crazy (I already had both cases)
Now Power on your phone and follow the steps again to get into TWRP
Swipe to continue (?)
select Wipe > Advanced Wipe
Now ONLY tick Dalvik/ART cache, System, Cache and Data
WARNING! THE NEXT STEP WILL WIPE YOUR SYSTEM AND DATA, MEANING YOU WILL DELETE YOUR STOCK SONY SYSTEM AND ALL YOUR APPS
(You already DID a Backup of your files so nothing to worry about)
Once you've ticked the correct boxes, swipe to wipe
Once the wipe is complete, return to the main menu and select Install
Locate and select your CM 13 Zip
Select "Add more Zips" and add your GAPPS package and finally swipe to install
Once the installation succeeded you can select "Reboot System"
Wait for CM 13 to boot up (Can take several minutes)
Enjoy CM13
OPTIONAL: You can remove your TWRP backup that is located in the TWRP folder if you feel like you will no longer need it
How to ROOT
In CM 13, enable the developer options
Select Root access
Select Apps Only (Or Apps and ADB if you use ADB)

How to disable the Thermal Manager
Before we start I want to set a few questions and warnings. Disabling the thermal manager will cause you device to run slightly hotter, do this at your own risk.
Let's start out with why you would want to disable the thermal manager. At this point it's not recommended to disable the thermal manager as it has been fixed. However some people still want the max performance out of their device. The average heat without the thermal manager will be roughly the same, if not less compared to the stock ROM with it's thermal manager enabled.
So why is the thermal manager even included if it the device runs mostly fine without it. As most of you already know, the Snapdragon 810 (MSM8994) has overheating problems. The first CM boot after flash is responsible for optimizing apps and android and can become extremely resource hungry at that point. Due to that, the device can heat tremendously! Not only can that cause a panic reboot but it can also damage your device in rare cases. To avoid that issue a thermal manager shrinks down process and slowers the boot animation (That's why the CM logo may lag at first boot).
Enough said, let's get going..
To disable the thermal manager you must do the following :
First enable root access (See "How to ROOT" guide)
Open the CM file manager
Go to settings > General Settings > Access Mode
Select root acess mode
Go back to the file manager
Swipe from left to right or press the menu button in the upper left corner
Select Root folder
Open the folder/directory called etc
Delete thermanger.xml
Reboot
Done
How return back to stock via TWRP backup
Reboot your device
Wait for the notification light to turn purple at the Sony logo
Once it has turned purple, you will enter TWRP by pressing VOL UP or VOL DOWN
If you've missed the step above reboot and try again
If TWRP will ask you to enable read and write, swipe to continue
In TWRP select restore and select your backup, then swipe to restore
Once the restore is done you can select "Reboot System"
If your device hangs at the Sony wave boot animation, force shut down and power your device up again.

Uploaded new img files and a flashable zip-file for TWRP (haven't tried it out myself, currently evaluating Resurrection Remix)
Sorry for the inconvenience so far
Give it a try, if you dare

Okay, so I followed the steps for "General installation", and the rom is surprisingly smooth. The only issue I've noticed that isn't addressed in the original post is that vibration intensity is WAY higher than in the stock rom. Like it's actually pretty loud. I know it's a minor issue compared to some of the other things, but I'm just throwing that out there. I'll point out anything else I find.

Absolute legend! Thanks man. I'll get to testing once i get home off this drilling rig

Actually it already was higher on AOSP, if recall correctly, but I'll ask the other devs if they noticed something out of the ordinary

That partially is caused by the "stock" built kernel,
you can see whether is improved by flashing my custom kernel.
One observation (according to @moonbutt74 afaik) led to the conclusion that the upstream (from sonyxperiadev) setting of coherent_pool=8M doesn't match with Sony's ("Stock ROM") setting of coherent_pool=2M,
and does no good for startup time (and reliability ?).
Another factor (like in most AOSP-based ROMs, Kernels) is that the kernel was built with a less tuned toolchain (gcc),
can't directly explain though why does leads to exactly that behavior.
Tl;dr:
Give the custom kernel a try - the "stock" kernel should work but for some reason sometimes it does not
custom has exfat + ntfs support to make microSDs work reliably and other things
Thanks

This is the NightOwl LineageOS 15.1 Android 8.1.0 Beta3 built from source for the Galaxy Note 1 GT-N7000/GT-N7000B
This LineageOS 15.1 based ROM is in Beta state and not ready for all day usage.
The main functions are working but there will be bugs!
Code:
Use my Roms only if you are sure about the risks of flashing custom Roms/Kernel to your device. I'm not responsible for any damage caused by using one of my files.
NOTE:
Because of the Rom Size and the ART runtime since Android 5 all Apps will need more space. If you want to install the rom together with Gapps you need to repartition your internal storage.
You can find more informations in the Howto Install section.
Changes:
Beta3:
* Updated los sources
* August security patches
* Fix mic-gain when multiple input streams are used
* Go settings without lowram flag set
* Acelerometer fixed
Older Changes:
Alpha2:
* Updated los sources
* April security patches
* First start wizard is working with installed gapps
* Youtube is working
* Added power profile settings
* Video playback mostly working
* Whatsapp videocalls working
Alpha1:
* First public release
Known Bugs Beta3:
* Installed gapps will cause a battery drain about 10%/h in standby
A part of the battery drain is caused by Wifi scanning which keeps Wifi always active.
Turn Wi-Fi Scanning off here: Settings -> Security & Privacy -> Location -> Scanning ->Wi-Fi scanning
This will reduce the battery drain but still something other (Ril?) is draining the battery too.
* If you get asked to instal/fix root/supersu in the recovery select no!
* Usb dialog not working. you can enable mtp mode in the developer settings
* Adoptable storage is not working (don't format your sdcard as internal!)
* Because of the rom size you need to repartition your /system and /data partition if you want to install gapps
How to Install:
If you are running a custom Kitkat(4.4) or newer Rom:
1. Copy Rom + Google Apps + recovery-twrp3.1.0-build2-isorec-n7000.zip + lanchon-repit-20170115-system=1536M+keep-data=6G+keep-sdcard=max+keep-preload=same+keep-n7000.zip to your external sdcard
2. Boot into recovery
3. Factory Reset + Format the /system partition
4. Flash the Rom zip file (without gapps in this step)
5. Flash recovery-twrp3.1.0-build2-isorec-n7000.zip
6. Reboot the recovery to enter the twrp isorec recovery
7. Flash lanchon-repit-20170115-system=1536M+keep-data=6G+keep-sdcard=max+keep-preload=same+keep-n7000.zip (Read the instructions in How to repartition your device!)
8. Flash gapps
9. Reboot
The steps to install it from an stock samsung rom are:
If you have already an samsung 4.1.x running you can skip step 1
1.flash N7000ZSLR1_N7000OZSLR1_BRI (or any other other 4.1.2) stock rom using odin
2.Copy Rom + Google Apps + recovery-twrp3.1.0-build2-isorec-n7000.zip + lanchon-repit-20170115-system=1536M+keep-data=6G+keep-sdcard=max+keep-preload=same+keep-n7000.zip to your external sdcard
3.flash PhilZ-cwm6-XXLT6-XSA-5.06.1.tar.md5 (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120702299) to get cwm recovery with odin
4. boot into recovery
5. flash this kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=20863 to get an updated recovery
(this step will make your old rom unbootable stuck in the n7000 screen but you can boot into recovery with press and hold "home" and "volume+" buttons and power on your phone)
6. you need to reboot! your device now to recovery
7. you are now in the updated recovery and you need to do a factory reset + format the /system partition
8. Flash the Rom zip file (without gapps in this step)
9. Flash recovery-twrp3.1.0-build2-isorec-n7000.zip
10. Reboot the recovery to enter the twrp isorec recovery
11. Flash lanchon-repit-20170115-system=1536M+keep-data=6G+keep-sdcard=max+keep-preload=same+keep-n7000.zip (Read the instructions in How to repartition your device!)
12. Flash gapps
13. Reboot
Updating If you are running an earlier NightOwl LineageOS 15.1 alpha version:
1. Copy Rom + recovery-twrp3.1.0-build2-isorec-n7000.zip + lanchon-repit-20170115-system=1536M+keep-data=6G+keep-sdcard=max+keep-preload=same+keep-n7000.zip to your external sdcard
2. Boot into recovery
3. Flash recovery-twrp3.1.0-build2-isorec-n7000.zip
4. Reboot the recovery to enter the twrp isorec recovery
5. Flash lanchon-repit-20170115-system=1536M+keep-data=6G+keep-sdcard=max+keep-preload=same+keep-n7000.zip (Read the instructions in How to repartition your device!)
6. Flash the Rom zip file
7. wipe dalvik cache
8. Reboot
How to repartition your device:
Because of partition size limitations you need to repartition your device to fit the rom together with gapps on the /system partition.
My example repit file (in the Downlodas section) will also enlarge the /data partition because the default size is to small for android 5+ if you want to install some apps.
Lanchon has made a tool which makes it possible to repartition your device in the recovery without loosing your data
https://github.com/Lanchon/REPIT
You need to have a working TWRP Recovery (CWM and Philz will not work)!
Make sure that you have at least 5GB free space on your internal sdcard0 before you start!
Make sure that your battery is charged and connect your device to the charger because repartitioning can take some time!
Installing the repit zip from the sdcard will fail the first time (because the sdcard is in use and can't unmounted) but the file gets copied to /tmp in this step.
After this select the repit zip to install from /tmp again and it should work
How to enable root:
1. Go to Settings-System-About phone and tip 7 times on Build number to enable the Developer options
2. Go to Settings-Developer options-Root access and set it to Apps and ADB
Don't install supersu (it will give you a boot loop!)

Awesome news incredible history. Many thanks Dev @bauner
Sent from my Redmi 4X using XDA Labs

Thanks a lot for the Rom @bauner
Clean flashed it on my GT-N7000 now and so far couldn't find any bugs that aren't known yet
Since it's my 2nd Phone I can't test anything RIL related but I'll try to check for any other bugs.
Do you know if we'll ever be able to install Magisk to our Note / What's the reason that we can't install it? I've read something about our Devices Ramdisk being different.

Dear bauner
Wow! Thank you so much!
Sincerely

Oh my!!! @bauner you're an absolute legend! Can't thank you enough for giving us the opportunity to try out the latest and greatest version of Android on our beloved Galaxy note!
I'll give it a try in a few days. I'm so excited. Thanks so much.
Cheers ?

whew my eyes...
btw first time trying f2fs installation on n7000, and it booted (unexpected as I see most of n7000 rom thread wrote nothing on f2fs support) gonna try it out
phone seems couldn't power on while charging with this kernel. Nice charging screen tho, love it
Thanks Bauner
EDIT: It seems won't boot (stuck at the charging screen) only if the battery is too low.
EDIT 2 : I don't know whether this is because of f2fs or what, I can feel that it performs much better than nougat (i mean on first boot of both rom)

Kiddos like screenies ~ :3
The lines in screenshot only applies to screenshot file - see statement by OP in first post

Thank you Bauner!

Thank you alot Bauner❤❤❤

Bugs I've seen so far since yesterday
•Youtube video playback broken (i can watch youtube on gello)
•Split screen
•occassional signal loss which requires reboot to be back again
•camera picture settings
•no signal sometimes whenwver i reboot, i have to reboot again for the aignal to come back

The youtube video problem is known
The rom is a android go build which does not support split screen
Can you reproduce the signal loss or will it happen randomly?
Which camera setting will not work for you?

Can't test it in this level (Daily phone and all)
just wanted to say thank you Bauner for supporting Note!

Split screen works perfectly, but to use split scrren, you need to set the low ram flag in build.prop to false
*You will notice a slight change in ui such as recents and screen off animation

Oh i found out that it was not really a signal loss but a random no simcard. It is random everytime i reboot the phone. I have to reboot again for the system to "detect" the sim again

Welp I also face this problem since months ago (during last year, running rros nougat)... Tried several time of clean install of nougat but didn't help, even with a different sim. Hopefully as for now the issue has not come back again for me on los15.
I tot I'm the only one facing this issue ._. as I'm expecting this is hardware related problem. I'm highly confident this is not software related. My sis and my mom they both using n7000 as daily driver with rros nougat running since clean install during earlier last year, and they didn't hv this/any problem until now. (My mom make many phone calls everyday. ) Guess should be due to the worsening condition of the modem chip, maybe is because of the heat released from CPU is too much?

Interestingly I only got the no sim bug on bauner's cm12 and los15.1

Seems like it was unable to boot sometimes, when the phone is charging, even when it already charged full. Best to remove charger and boot. Else sometimes it will stuck at charging screen, then will need to reboot by long pressing the power button.
Sometimes shutdown or reboot, it will like stuck for a moment before reset.(should be kernel related?) Like if in TWRP, if press reboot, it will stuck there for around 5 seconds or more, in my case 15 seconds longest, before it really reset.
There's no thermal sensors detected. Can't see the temperature of system.
Until today still smooth like hell. No idea why haha I'm using lowram flag = false.
Surprisingly there aren't any MTP Host related FC Dialog anymore 0.0 I will try out MTP soon.
Overall, what a legend! Thanks OP! It seems like it is a joke to tell people that note 1 is running Oreo :laugh:
But not.

With the default /system partition size you will not have enough free space to install nano gapps.
To fit bigger gapps as pico with lineage 15.1 you need to repartition the /system partition too.

Thank you for this.
Anyways, my internal storage shows as corrupted in 8.1.0. Not able to access it. Did I miss something?
Apart from this, everything is working great! Thank you once again for keeping this phone alive @bauner.
