Multisim FAQ
How to enable/disable multisim?
Install a terminal and type the following
Enable:
Code:
su
setprop persist.radio.multisim.config dsds
Disable:
Code:
su
setprop persist.radio.multisim.config none
Or use the file manager in root mode, search for build.prop and change persist.radio.multisim.config=dsds (enable) or persist.radio.multisim.config=none (disable)
Dual SIM has the following limitations:
Both SIMs are always enabled (no way to disable one SIM)
"Receive incoming call while data is enabled" is always enabled
The QuickSettings tile will display the status for the currently selected SIM for data
Changing 2G/3G network mode using the QuickSettings toggle is not supported, only do it from Settings.
3G may not work properly if Dual SIM mode is enabled with only 1 SIM inserted
Ok, this rom seems pretty stable. I think dual sim should work and games like clash of clans won't close themseves. However I don't really know if lock screen widgets works (already searched on privacy and didn't found anything). For those who like features and doesn't need the lock screen widgets, this rom should be great
Edit: Ok, I found how to activate lock screen widgets. It seems it is necessary to disable low ram mode... Well, I'll release RC 1.1 with lock screen widgets working soon

Hmm that's weird. I'm using it right now and I don't have those problems. Those problems happened to you only on this rom or also on other roms? And did you use CWM or TWRP?
Hi, well im using CWM but discovered that this trouble its related with the Gapps.. :S when i change the gapps using another micro or nano version everything works fine. so its not a issue directly of the rom.. and its awesome.. thanxs again..
Greetings
Is this ROM Better/More stable than NamelessRom? i still can't decide wich one to download...
By the way, youtube doesn't work correctly on CM 11.0 and SlimKat 4.4.4, videos just seem to keep buffering till a. The app crashes, or b. The entire cellphone restarts itself... so I'm trying these two and i need to know wich one is better (in terms of performance, and youtube)
Anyways thanks for giving ROMs to our old little Samsung Galaxy Music

CM11 is the perfect ROM for this phone. For YouTube, try either this version of the YouTube app or any of the alternate apps from the F-Droid repository.

Which ROM are you flashing? Carbon? Did you try any of the others? CM11? If not, try flashing that. Don't flash GApps immediately. Just flash ROM and boot the phone. Let everything settle down for about five minutes and then flash GApps.
Yes

Yes, I've tried flashing Carbon ROM And I also flashed CM 10.1 But it had the same issues. And I haven't tried flashing CM 11 because It has some confusing method like Build. prop.

Hello, I'm really sorry to bump this thread, but, some time ago, it seems like this youtube app just stopped working, it just gives an error (401 or something like that) or it straight out tells me that a new version of youtube is available (The broken, original one from the playstore).
So, basically, is there another modified youtube app I can try out that allows me to watch videos on 4.4.4 again? The original YouTube still buffers forever :crying:
Again, sorry for bumping this thread, I hadn't had the time to post this here...

Try one of these. Of these, I've personally used NewPipe, SkyTube and Webtube and they all work without issue. Do try them out and provide feedback here so others can also benefit from your experience...

I'm sorry to say that none of these work on a Samsung Galaxy Music S6010 with CM11.0, they all have the same issue of not playing the video at all, and crashing if they're not closed on time...
I guess there are no other alternatives other than to flash back to 4.1.2 ????
4.1.2 is barely usable because of all the bloatware it has, or i don't know what is it that makes it so... laggy.
This ROM is no longer maintained. Sadly the last provided zip files got deleted by accident. If anyone can provide them, I will re-upload.
Disclaimer: Flash at your own risk! Backup your data before flashing! I am not responsible for bricked devices, World War III or your exploding cats!
Warning: The SGP611 images are not tested, but just built by me, as I do not own the device. But as the two devices are the same except for the 4G Modem, it should work. If not, please let me know.
About:
As my beloved SGP621 was just collecting dust, I decided to try porting Android 7.1 AOSP onto it.
And voila, with a few tweaks here and there, it works (for the most part).
What works:
- Display
- Sound
- WiFi
- 4G Data
- Bluetooth
- NFC (somewhat flakey, but much better with fixes in V4)
- LED
- Magnetic Cover Sleep/Wake
- WideVine DRM
- Double-Tap to wake
What doesn't work:
- FM Radio (working on it)
- Camera (Taking Pictures works, but sometimes the camera is not able to connect. Taking a video crashes the mediaserver.)
- You tell me
I have used it for the last few weeks. Battery life near optimal now and I had no crashes up until now. If your battery depletes rapidly, please disable NFC and check if it betters things. Then comment here, so I can look into it.
Keeping your data:
If you come from an earlier version of this ROM it should suffice to only flash boot.img and system.img. Coming from Stock or another ROM you could try to not flash userdata and see if it would keep your data, but I think it will not work in most cases.
Flashing:
Flashing userdata it is like doing a wipe. So BACKUP your data! You have been warned!
To flash it, you need to put your tablet into fastboot mode (VolUp + plugging in USB-Cable) and then flash the three image files from the zip file in the provided link like:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
gapps and/or root:
If you want Google Apps and/or root you need to download official twrp for scorpion windy (or inofficial for scorpion) from here and flash it to the FOTAKernel partition with the following command:
Code:
fastboot flash FOTAKernel twrp-3.0.2-0-scorpion_windy.img
After that you can boot into recovery by hitting VolUp multiple times once the LED flashes purple until it turns orange.
From there you are able to flash
- gapps for Nougat 7.1 arm (nano confirmed working, others could be problematic)
- Magisk-V8 and phh-SuperUser (confirmed working)
Tips for better battery life:
I installed Naptime to trigger deep doze as soon as the tablet goes to sleep. I also enabled zzmoove cpu gov and noop scheduler in the kernel options. Because of the high display brightness, I installed Lux Lite, to dim the screen if it is darker. This leads to me getting standby battery consumption of around 1.2% per hour (measured with GSam Battery Monitor) which is nearly the same amount I got with stock.
Changelog:
18.11.2016 - V4:
- Integrated newest Android Patches from Sony and Google.
- New binaries from qcom (camera, sensors, display, ...)
- Custom kernel with additional fixes, FMRadio patches (not working yet) and zen I/O scheduler
- Fixes and Enhancements here and there
08.11.2016 - V3:
- Integrated newest Android Version NDE63X from earlier today.
- Integrated and enabled WideVine DRM, so that Google Play Movies is now working.
- Custom kernel with additional zzmoove governer and adreno_idler patches to lengthen battery life
- Fixes and Enhancements here and there
04.11.2016 - V2:
- switched the Camera subsystem to HAL1 after discussion with the sony camera guys
- fixed most of the camera related crashes and hangs. Quality of the preview is poor, but pictures are okay.
- Taking a Video crashes the mediaserver and yields no playable result as of now.
- added build for SGP611, which is untested as I do not own the device. But it should work.
02.11.2016 - V1:
- Initial release: Everything except Camera is working. Camera uses HAL3.
Thanks:
- Sony, for providing awesome AOSP support on github

for the camera there is a post in the forum that some dev are trying to figure out a solution for get a camera fully functional?
edit: for the moment the most things are working fine, only one thing when i play video, the video show a green imagen. i will continue testing.

Are you using a specfic video player? Which codec does the video file use?
As for the camera. I am already in contact with the camera guys from Sony and will experiment a little with their suggested solutions today.

Nope, only SGP621 (scorpion) for now, as I have no scorpion_windy. I'll maybe do a blind build once scorpion is stable and functional enough for my taste.

Tried with many different samples from mplayerhq with many different codecs. In VLC with hardware and software decoding as well as with firefoxes internal playback. They all played back fine and without color distortion. Maybe your player app is not yet compatible with 7.1?
Well this is a surprise. Since I never used NFC and the Cameras with the tablet and always got rid of the corresponding apks in /system this would actually be a daily runner for me right now
Sadly I only have a SGP611, so no love for me right now...
Anyway, top notch work, keep it up!

TWRP stopped working after Gapps flash.
Reflashed TWRP but still stack at TWRP wallpaper and doesn't start.
Does anyone have the solution?
ps. Found out if I take out SD card, TWRP works.
SD card corrupts easily, it seems.

This is strange. Please try reflashing boot.img to boot and twrp to FOTAKernel. If that does not work, you could try formatting those partitions before writing to them via fastboot format.

Warning: The SGP611 images are not tested, but just built by me, as I do not own the device. But as the two devices are the same except for the 4G Modem, it should work. If not, please let me know.
Have fun testing
This ROM is discontinued. The successor of CyanogenMod is LineageOS which can be found in the corresponding Thread. The Downloads will be left here for the time being.

About:
As my beloved SGP621 was just collecting dust, I decided to try porting Android 7.1 AOSP onto it. That worked well, so I moved on to CM 14.1
And voila, with a few tweaks here and there, it works (for the most part). But this is still considered BETA, so be warned and flash at your own risk.
What works:
- Display
- Sound
- WiFi
- 4G Data
- Bluetooth
- NFC (somewhat flakey)
- LED
- Magnetic Cover Sleep/Wake
- Double-Tap to wake
What doesn't work:
- FM Radio (It works, but only if Bluetooth is off and breaks if BT is on while Radio gets enabled)
- Camera (Taking Pictures works, but sometimes the camera is not able to connect. Taking a video crashes the mediaserver.)
- LiveDisplay is not working correctly
- Performance Profiles cannot be set (CM14.1 issue)
- You tell me
If your battery depletes rapidly, please disable NFC and check if it betters things. Then comment here, so I can look into it.
Flashing Recovery (This only applies if you do not have one already. If you do, go to the Flashing section below):
If you flash for the first time, you first need to download the CM recovery for your device from below.
To flash it, you need to put your tablet into fastboot mode (VolUp + plugging in USB-Cable) and then flash the recovery like this:
Code:
fastboot flash FOTAKernel recovery-scorpion.img
If you come from stock or from a ROM that does not support Recovery on the FOTAKernel partition, you also need to fastboot flash the boot image for your device before rebooting into recovery.
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot-scorpion.img
Flashing:
If you installed the recovery to the FOTAKernel partition then, while booting, get your device into recovery mode, by hitting VolUp multiple times once the LED flashes purple. Do so until it turns orange. (If you already have another recovery installed, boot into it.)
Now select install from adb sideload and from your computer issue:
Code:
adb sideload cm-14.1-(DATE)-UNOFFICIAL-scorpion(_windy).zip
gapps:
CM14.1 was tested with open gapps for Nougat 7.1 arm (nano confirmed working, others could be problematic)
Tips for better battery life:
I installed Naptime to trigger deep doze as soon as the tablet goes to sleep. I also enabled zzmoove cpu gov and noop scheduler in the kernel options. Because of the high display brightness. This leads to me getting standby battery consumption of around 1.2% per hour (measured with GSam Battery Monitor) which is nearly the same amount I got with stock.

Good work!!! Done it. Works fine until now. Will do more research in the morning. Anyway, there is an issue with Google Play. It says that my device isn't compatible with a lot of apps that I normally use. I flashed multiple variants of 7.1 Gapps. Which one did you use? What about build.prop? Or dpi? No idea. I will get back tomorrow with more feedback. Keep it up!

Please give an example of an app which does not work, so I can test and have a look in the logs. Below solution should fix those problems.
For anyone who wants to fix this without flashing the full fixed version. Please download attached file, enable root for adb and do the following:
Code:
adb push tablet_core_hardware.xml /sdcard/
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
cp /sdcard/tablet_core_hardware.xml /system/etc/permissions/
chmod 644 /system/etc/tablet_core_hardware.xml
reboot
Your device should reboot then and all the capabilities should be available again.

I will get back tomorrow with more feedback. Keep it up!

Could you please try the fix described in the last post and report back if that eliminates your problems?
Thank you santa for the great surprise
I have just flashed 1.0.1. The matter with Google Play is resolved. Kudos!

I had 3 crashes in 2h, while I was playing Clash of Clans. Always within a minute after waking the tablet from deep sleep. I tried to mimic the situation and get an adb logcat, but it doesn't crash while charging. Because it doesn't sleep. Do you think a logcat installed on the tablet could shed some light? Would that even remain logged after the crash?

There should be logcat apps in the playstore, that save the logs so you can review them afterwards. Could you also please try and disable NFC and see if that resolves the crashes? The only crashes I saw till now were all NFC related.
The NFC setting is just blinking on and off continuously. I'll attach a logcat anyway. There are really a lot of NFC related errorshttp://cloud.tapatalk.com/s/5835b760cefb3/Log_2016-11-23_16-29-53.txt

You are amazing!
CM is working great only issue I've noticed so far is that live display isn't working but that's not a serious issue.
Keep up the awesome work:victory:
Update: Ignore this part I just found out its a problem in CM and not with this rom-Another minor bug, after disabling control ringtone volume in settings-buttons the volume keys still control the ringer volume when they should be controlling the media volume.
OMG! I can't beleive that this rom exist for sgp611..Thank you, will try
This CM14.1's battery life is extremely good compared to AOSP.

I totally agree! Still, the tablet doesn't seem to sleep after charging. And, after disabling NFC, the tablet didn't crash anymore! Very happy about that!

At the moment I am looking into forwardporting an older version of the NFC lib, as it seems to have worked then. After that I will be examining the charging issue. To be clear, this happens if you USB charge while the device is on and once it reaches 100% the wakelock is kept? Do you use a Sony chagrger? Do you charge via USB or via Magnetick Dock/Connector?

It doesn't matter which charger I use, at least, apparently. I have a DK39 Sony dock, supplied by Aukey 3.0 Qualcomm fastcharger. All variants have the same result, even laptop USB charging. I didn't use my Sony charger in a while.

First of all, thank you for your efforts lowtraxx. I still love my Z3 tablet and the splitscreen function is a useful addition to the operating system.
It’s not really an issue with your rom itself, but with Android 7 in general. Google changed the way apps can request access to the external SD card. You could just edit a file in /etc/permission in the past, but that way doesn’t work anymore. I’ve only found a workaround using Xposed, which still hasn’t been ported to Android N.
Is there another way to achieve this? I’d like to keep the SD card as an external one, but I don’t think the ComicRack developer (my main usage for this tablet) will update the app anytime soon.
How may I contribute to get this rom running on top of the SGP-612 model (wifi 32gb)? By the way, many thanks for porting CM-14.1 to the Z3TC. This tablet is worth maintaining.

The only difference between the SGP-612 and SGP-611 is the storage so you could try flashing just system and boot without userdata (wipe internal storage and data in recovery first) or even flashing user data and then doing a factory reset if the wrong amount of available storage is shown (that works for nexus factory images) but I'm not sure if that will work.
Hello,
I just open this thread to discuss about the rom and share issues.
The rom is very close to Android stock.
Issues that I have encountered (Build: 2017-10-08):
-Led notification is blinking very very fast (and change settings does nothing)
-Bluetooth audio (for music and video) does not work (I haven't tried calls)
Camera works, fingerprint is fast as in MIUI, run smoothly
You must format data before flashing (or it will bootloop)

- Bluetooth audio bug is same as that in Mokee Xiaomi Mi 6 rom, dev has replied in their forums the next nightly should have it fixed.
- Notification light bug will not be fixed until source is out (dev replied on when i listed the bug on Mokee forums)
Another thing ive noticed:
- The rom included a non-official xposed port for nougat which I cant remove, only disable
- Rom does not pass safetynet. Tried magisk+hide to no avail

Ugh, no bluetooth audio is a killer for me. I do like the idea of a near stock Android though...
Safetynet is the killer for me. Need bank apps to work.

True, but if they pre-installed xposed and made it un-removable, then safety net will always fail...
I am loving this ROM! The battery life doesn't seem as good as eu rom. Also notice volume for YouTube seems low at Max setting. Other than that this is amazing stick room with Xposed and Gravity box!

Safetynet doesn't pass with xposed.. uninstall it
Shoot. No VOLTE on T-Mobile.. Every time I make a call I notice it drops to 3g or H+. Anyone know a fix?
Also, when making a 3 way conference call the phone app force closes and can't open.

Hi,
Woah... 11/11 released on 10/11 ! that is looking into the future
Anyways, jokes apart, did you try it and if so, is Bluetooth audio working ? It's something I would need
By the way : I just looked into the Mokee source. It seems they have the source for device and vendor.
Anyone knows if the msm8996 kernel for xiaomi would work with these ? tat would allow to build other ROM's.
Regards.

Have not tried it~ (bt-audio should be fixed as the mi6 had the same issue and is fixed with currently nightly, dev also added aptx+aptxhd in addition to a2dp)
Mix2 hasnt had it's source released, the maintainer for mix2 happens to be the maintainer for the mi6 (which had it's sources released). As the both use smiliar hardware (sd835, camera sensor) they messed around to get the mix2 rom up. Which is why somethings will not work properly until mix2 sources are released (like the prox sensor and the notif light)

It was. Just needed BT audio. if you confirm i'll switch ASAP
On the newest mokee! You need to wipe everything and do a clean install. Dirty flash and you get a bunch of errors and need to reboot into recovery

It works? BT audio? ::highfive:
To go into deeper detail on the ROM, I used Lineage 16.0 20180901 s6 build modified for the s6 found here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...20x-5x-nexusos-9-0-samsung-galaxy-s6-t3843199
It was also based on NexusOS kernel that has been modified, so a big shout out to Team Nexus for the kernel and rom, and to @lukasb06 for porting it to s6.
The original kernel was by Team Nexus for s6 and s6e
Kernel Features;
v2.0: first support Pie on s6e+ and n5
change log:
support N5-s6e+ (ready for daily usage)
bug: BT, GPS, NFC
deep sleep fixed, init.d support, dyninteractive and a lot of kernel code changed.
the kernel can be found at :
https://github.com/slaminger/android_kernel_samsung_exynos7420
**I have made some modifications, added a shim, added code to the init.rc to disable p2p wifi. Moving forward the modifications to the kernel will be done by myself.
Please read and follow the instructions :
New zip uploaded for November. Each month has its own folder
This is not fully functional yet but it is close, no Bluetooth, no NFC. the two buttons next to home don't work yet(a couple of temporary solutions below)
BACK UP YOUR CURRENT ROM! especially efs. Some people have ril issues, I noticed my imei changed. A quick efs restore fixed it and my sim worked again.
The home button can be set to double tap for recent apps and use opera browser for compensation of no back button as they have their own, or download back button from play store to add floating buttons to screen. Some versions have buttons pre installed.
I can get bluetooth not to crash, but it doesn't connect.
Wifi Hotspot not working.
Now that the bad is out of the way.
Install Instructions Below:
The call audio and WiFi works, camera works(lower res for video to 1080), magisk is working but apk requires manual apk install, audio works, headphones, video, gapps, everything I have tried besides the above is OK.
The install is a process, first flash the ROM, then the pie fix, then no NFC, and then flash the boot.
Img and start the ROM. set your WiFi and take a look around, give it a moment to run). After first boot, reboot to twrp and flash gapps. If you do it all at once gapps crash sometimes. Once you have this all set up and good to go then add magisk.
9.0SeptSecurity is a different version from the august security not just in the sense that the security patch is different, but also the august build is N920 where the September build is G920F. One is from a note one from s6. It is possible one might resolve a bug that is in the other for your device, i am honestly not sure. different people report different bugs on the same device. If bluetooth does happen to be in one of the zips it will likely crash a lot. remove it via twrp by mounting system and then going to system/app and delete the bluetooth and bluetoothmidi folders.
The reason for lowering rear camera to 1080p for video is that it gets buggy at the 4k default.
A big thank you to NexusOS and LineageOS for their 9.0 lineage 16.0 s6 ROM which I used as a base to port this to our device!
i would also like to thank @topjohnwu for Magisk.
And @MirzaAwais for the Pie fix zip

It's a bit slow for the first little bit while setting up and whatnot, but once you get everything running it works fine. You can use kernel auditor if you find your battery is dying a little too fast.
I am VERY open to suggestions and or help with this, as it is my goal to fix the bugs and have a fully working 9.0 for our device. The buttons are a priority for me.
To briefly summarize: you sacrifice the back button, pages button, and Bluetooth and get 9.0. Everything else works. I've got viper4android going via magisk, the audio fx work. The ROM has a LOUD volume. So if you like music, enjoy. The back button/page has a work around(most apps have a back button), and you can get an app from play store called back button which gives you the home, back and recent button as tiny floating screen icons also, in the meantime. so just bluetooth really. Use modified cam perm boot shim.img
Enjoy
I removed Bluetooth from the ROM intentionally because it crashed constantly and was hard to disable for people unfamiliar with twrp. No NFC.
The camera has been modified to address pipeline errors that caused it to not work in other builds, it is now fully functional up to 1080p video.
The advanced menu seems to be working fine.
Magisk successfully installed with the following modules tested: Viper4Android, Sony Framework, Sony Music, Audio Modification Library, Sys Config Patcher.
SUBSTRATUM DOES NOT WORK ON ANDROID PIE. This is because google does not want us using OMS for custom themes. they disabled it on purpose. i do not believe systemless substratum will be possible moving forward on any device running pie. atleast not at the time being.
**** Solved** see next post** Netflix not currently working, I googled and found many users on pie are having issues.
Superuser works also, but magisk has modules.
More details will be coming.
All gapps 9.0 working on sm-g928
W8, I used the full aroma package and installed everything. However pixel launcher with assistant in the search bar will not work if you install the new Google webview. The built in Google now launcher will work, and I have tried Nova launcher prime. Keep in mind the more gapps you install the slower your device can get. it is best to only install what you need. i installed everything just to see what worked. but i noticed my phone was slower after a while.
The camera is only confirmed working on g928w8 Canadian, g928g, g928f international/american, note 5 N 920variants. Others have reported bugs.
Netflix Netflix-6.13.0_build_29940.apk confirmed working, both cast and watching videos.
Congrats! Will this rom work on Note 5 N920C too ?

Suggestion: if you un-compress the rom(s) and do a search for *camera or camera* does it return any results. I suggest you compare it to a working version and determine what is missing in the system/ system/app and system/priv-app folder(s) once you determine what is missing then just bring those changes over to your folders

Its uploading now, I used the same zip from my phone and changed the updater script to zenlte
OK its done, I named it v2, same link as first post
@godkingofcanada Hi, I've got same problem with this rom as I had with Oreo rom before. My WiFi MAC Address is 02:00:00:00:00:00 and it doesn't turn on. Have I to do something more than installing rom and all fixes with it ? I can provide logcat if it would do. Also after clean installation there was no bootanimation and no wallpaper. Just black screen and that's all. Hope to see quick reply. Cheers

Also, the phone is identifying itself as SM-N920X is settings, same this was happening with Oreo ROMs. I'll keep this page refreshed once in a while, I hope that you will find something. I've updated bootloader, but I'm not sure if it changes something. Thanks for fast replies
