I'm building right now for LTE but I can't test this builds.
EDIT: LTE Build is up!

I have tried the Wifi version and it seems to work fine.
First I had a few restarts when locking the screen but it seems to have fixed itself now. Maybe because I disabled double tap to sleep/wake?
SD card is not mounted. Is there a way to fix it? The card is listed in /proc/partitions so it should be possible to fix with a proper fstab.

I compared fstab.qcom in CM12 with the stock kernel and found a difference. The stock kernel has /devices/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host for sdcard1 but CM12 has /devices/msm_sdcc.2/mmc_host
I changed '2' to '3' in the ramdisk and now SD card works. I have attached my modified kernel image. Unpack the zip file and flash cm12-sdcard1-fix.img using fastboot. This kernel is taken from cm-12-20141225-0800-UNOFFICIAL-scorpion_windy.zip

Great, thank you but I could not install it. In TWRP it says:
"This package is for device: SGP621, SGP641, SGP651, scorpio; this device is scorpion_windy."
It's not. I have the LTE version, SGP621 aka Scorpion.

Thanks for the builds! What has everyone flashed?

Home Launcher
Is Trebuchet included in these builds? Ive flashed todays (26th) build and am I'm just getting the options for Google Now and Nova Launcher.

The recovery (TWRP) need to get a build separately for the scorpion (SGP621), then it should work.
I will search for a alternative installation method for the scorpion.

Yes, Trebuchet is included in these build, PA Gapps remove Trebuchet I can upload Trebuchet separately if you want.

I made a pull request on Github. Not sure if it is the correct way to do it
https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_sony_scorpion_windy/pull/1
The file fstab.qcom is in rootdir. Because of the overlay (scorpion is based on shinano common) I had to add a new file. I have not built from source so I have not checked that it is working but manually updating the ramdisk did work.

Your welcome Should I post stuff as I find them or PM you so you can update the OP?
Could you post trebuchet separately? That'd be a great help. I think the PA guys need to incorporate Aroma installer, because I don't think Google Now Launcher is as good as Trebuchet.
Keep up the good work, hopefully we'll get the camera drivers soon. I'll look to see if the camera module is the same as the Z2 tab, if so we may not need to wait, just take them from the other repository.

Oh, one more thing...
Xposed doesn't install through a combination of crap cyanogenmod recovery and other stuff which I can't profess to understand
Edit: I now understand that this is because of the shift from Dalvik runtime to ART. Getting CM12 to run Xposed will either require reverting to Dalvik (is this possible?) or waiting for the Xposed devs to rewrite Xposed.

When updating to a new nightly, you can flash over the previous build. When you do you need to reflash the ram disk/kernel update.
BUG REPORT: Rebooting into recovery from power menu doesn't work. Requires manual intervention at 'Sony screen'/purple LED.

Intalled it and works fine as far as i can tell. Can´t move Apps to he sd card thogh (not enough space error) but that might be because of that known sd issue. I have general access to the sd though.
Cheers and thanks

[ROM] AOSP Nougat 7.1.2 | MoltenMotherBoard

Hi, I am sharing my Nougat ROM for LG-P880 with the XDA community. As a tribute to the original @MoltenMotherBoard, it will continue to be named as such.
AFH download:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=109853
ChangeLog
20180122
- Android-7.1.2_r36 (N2G48H)
- kernel
* Optimized kswapd based on kernel-msm/3.10/Bullhead
- Tuned extra_free_kbytes to 4 screen buffers
- Reduced I/O read_ahead_kb from 2048 to 256 for better latency
- Set dalvik.vm.dex2oat-thread = 2
Complete changelog
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=109853
SELinux for Nougat
SELinux in Nougat has been hardened to never allow text relocation for executables. This is the only rule that we had to relax to enable pre-KitKat blobs to run.
To enable SELinux Enforcing, do this from recovery
Code:
$ adb shell mount /data
$ adb shell touch /data/.selinux
$ adb shell umount /data
Known issues
- MHL not working
- Display freeze on Cast Screen disconnect
- Widevine DRM not working
Broken AOSP components
- Clock
- Browser2
- Music
- Webview
Installation
You need to have custom recovery that can flash multiple zip files without having the reboot. I personally use the official CWM 6.0.4.5 so the instructions will be based on that with no external SD.
>Coming from other ROMs
- wipe userdata/cache
- format /system
- apply ROM zip
- apply Gapps zip ...or more Gapps if using modular Gapps
- format /data and /data/media
- reboot
>Coming from the same ROM
- format /cache
- format /system
- apply ROM zip
- apply Gapps zip ...or more Gapps if using modular Gapps
- reboot
Recommended Gapps is OpenGapps stock. Default webview provider is Google WebView. Please make sure your Gapps include this. Attached you will see my Gapps config.
This is based on Grouper blobs, so as usual barcode/QR scanning will not work and will not consider this as bug. However, Grouper blobs works with Screen Cast, which for me, is more useful than barcode/QR code scanning.
Let the testing begin!!!:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

I'm tempted to try the new Nougat CB, but I need my phone to be reliable. So I'm wondering why people revert back to MM. Anyone care to share why they prefer the older MM?

for those who didn't understand how to go about with step 8 i.e how to transfer rom from pc, in twrp, select advanced--> adb sideload and from your PC in terminal type adb sideload filename.zip

Failure of the persist partition

TwRP does not want the persist partition, both automatically and manually. Please, send a copy of persist with xiaomi.eu. Earlier links that I found are out of date or in error in zip / rar.

I recently posted the solution for this issue on numerous threads
Download the required Dipper images Rom:
Fastboot Rom Link : dipper_global_images_9.6.27_20190627.0000.00_9.0_g lobal_30e0fc22ef.tgz
FYI Trivia: the release date of the firmware doesn't matter, If you use diff or Beyond Compare to analyse file differences you will find nothing different.
Unpack the fastboot rom, and manually extract the persist.img and then place it into the sd folder of your phone using recovery file manager.
Boot to TWRP
Go to advanced , then terminal
type: dd if = / sdcard / persist.img of = / dev / block / bootdevice / by-name / persist
After its finished reboot to system, finished
If that helped you click thanks instead of saying it.
if it doesn't work for you, there are several other ways to do this.

You should try using this version of TWRP, it does not have encryption issues.

The ROM from this site is zip file and doesn't have a persist.img inside
can't see any other (fastboot) version there to download...

Here I posted a photo of the rom unpacked. Note that the persist.image is there: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79814349&postcount=4
Basically you need the stable fastboot rom for your device ( Global or Chinese) It must be the fastboot rom and not the recovery rom.

I know and I found that ROM but not from the link from the first post which does'nt contain any fastboot ROM.
You can find it here:

Well the ROM was updated so the link now apparently goes to the newer build. At the end of the day any fastboot ROM with the built-in flashall.bat script will include all of the needed images.
Here is an additional site that includes multiple releases

The Q version if using Q and vice versa.
The links work, just fine. It's my account on AFH. ( See screenshot)
You may have to wait a few seconds for the source link to open. I checked it just now, obviously and it immediately loaded.

Regarding the fastboot rom, the link works. Also it's on the official site. People can't be bothered to click thanks but want direct links. Nope sorry.

Here is a hint: it's a fastboot rom on the official site. You must use a desktop to download.
You can find direct links on the OP of the Xiaomi.eu thread, here on XDA it's on the OP.
