DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY
I can not be held responsible for any damage caused to your cell phone.
Use this tutorial at your own risk.
This tutorial was successfully tested on my cell phone
I can only provide help in case of being stuck in a step!​Many of the moto g5s plus users wanted to extend their devices and have installed custom roms but after that we found the gps are not working anymore. So this will fix this gps issue.
SOLUTION
1.take a backup of gps.conf file (vendor/etc/gps.conf)
2. Download the file provided click here
3. Reboot to recovery
4. Flash the file
5. Reboot
6. Important!!! open map and choose a destination and start driving and minimise it and open the gps test app and open and keep it for some time. For the first time it will take little longer and show 3d fix. Vola..! Then u are ready to go!

@mcrazymanu this is the one fix worked for me in my old g5 plus (Potter). Again I face the same wrong/bad/****ty gps on oneplus 5 (cheeseburger). This can work on this device too, right?
And please, clarify one thing. Why today on 2020 GPS still not working on custom roms without this kind of patch?

It's a success, this config updates has fixed gps on my Moto G5s Plus (XT1805) with LineageOS 18.1
I've been searching this solution for 2 days since I installed my new custom OS and I'm glad I found it here.
Thank you very very much for your help @mcrazymanu

[ROM] CM13.0 for ZTE Axon Elite A2015 - Compatible with A2016?

I have discovered chinese developers are working on CM13.0 for A2015 version.
http://www.myzte.cn/thread-263527-1-1.html
It's needed to register on the chinese forum for getting the download link, but I have already downloaded and uploaded it to MEGA.
https://mega.nz/#!PwJS0QpZ!SphrqNpypkaPG86oJ_RoBxuIvFRnQy38LRHk9GymSwk
Can anyone try if it works on A2016? I bought it some days ago, so I'm waiting for it and I can't try it yet.
Facts about this rom vs. stock rom I could read from chinese people:
- Overheat
- No google services
- No fingerprint
- Better battery performance
- Faster
- Very slow boot
- Worst mobile coverage
- Works with Xposed
The version is only for the A2015, said in post #198 (http://www.myzte.cn/forum.php?mod=redirect&goto=findpost&ptid=263527&pid=3289532)
"Please don't install this ROM in AXON ELITE devices. it's only for AXON A2015. "

So what's the difference between A2015 and A2016?
If there're no hardware differences, it wouldn't be difficult to make a port of this rom for A2016, right?

It shouldn´t be, as there are no dramatic hardware differences as far as I know. Unfortunately my knowledge in porting ROMs is almost non-existent.
I´d be grateful if a more experienced dev could investigate. :angel:
Just to give you all an answer - no its not compatible. I've made full backup in TWRP, then wiped all partitions and made an clean install then rebooted.
It stayed on ZTE bootloader screen for 15 minutes and it didn't booted. So not even passing the bootloader screen.
Full restore of stock ROM was only possible after first wiping all of the partitions, then rebooting, restoring the stock ROM and even then the stock ROM didn't wanted to boot. After going into the Factory reset mode (not resetting, just getting into with Volume low button and power) I was able to power off the phone, then start it and then it finally booted back to previously restored Stock ROM.
This was done on A2016 Elite model.

It would definitely awesome having CM13 on this phone since the hardware is absolutely awesome considering the price tag. I have purchased this device from gearbest a few days ago for about 180 bucks. IMHO quite insane for QCOM MSM8994, 1080p, metal build etc.
Too bad ZTE isn't eager to provide proper community support...
My LG G4 shortly died (bootloop issue) after the alarm rang, waking me for work....still fulfilled its last duty... Lol

I have saw some Russian people are now working on our A2016 version.
It seems we'll have some scene
I've found a way to boot and run Chinese CM13 for A2015 correctly on our A2016.
There is no fingerprint support! NFC have problems and you can't change lockscreen settings (use external lockscreen app works fine).
Dual SIM is supported, WiFi, Caliing, Data, Sound, Camera - everything works fine. Need to sort few thing out and check the bugs if there are A2016 dependend or CM bug, since this is unofficial ROM.
For the record - I'm not building CM13 myself, just made CM13 A2015 bootable on A2016 using some special files.
In couple of days, I'll upload the needed files for you guys, so that you can also use it.
AnTuTu gives 79k on CM13.

Sounds the same issues than I got when installing Chinese marshmallow rom on A2016, but I didn't test NFC. Does it have same issue also that when trying to enable password/pin protection in security options, settings will force close?

Yes, correctly. The same issues. Can't tell if this is device firmware problem or ROM.
Is it possible to use the fingerprint and NFC files from the official A2016 Android 5.0 Firmware and port them to Android M? Like with the radio file (NON-HLOS.bin).

Sorry, didn't tested that. I'm also back on stock, since the CM13 had few bugs. Can't recommend it as daily driver. With the time, the ROM become laggy and simple games started to stutter.

Quick Review Lineage 14.1 by Meticulus

Lineage 14.1 by Meticulus
As of today February 12 XDA Developer Meticulus released his fifth alpha version of Lineage 14.1 based on Google's Nougat 7.1.1 mobile operating system.
For an alpha this version of the OS is very stable with only a few drawbacks namely no
WIFI Hotspot
USB Tethering
Bluetooth Tethering
SELinux
I am running this as my daily driver since the first iteration of his (Meticulus) ROM and find it more stable as the available beta version of Huawei's own Nougat based Emui 5.0. As of February 12 Live display has been fixed and doesn't lag the UI anymore, even though I personally never had this issue. My phone is the L-31 version with 3gb of RAM fyi.
Battery live is as good as it gets. I am getting a day and a half with moderate use out of it what is amazing considering I got barely a full day with minimal use out of Huawei's unmodified stock firmware. Being not bogged down by all the bells and whistles that come with Emui 4.1 does wonders.
Out of the gate Lineage is as bare bone as it gets and a dream for every theme artist out there. As always with Custom Roms that come without the usual Google apps
http://opengapps.org is your friend. Meticulus recommended the nano version if you like to flash dirty, saying that I am running Lineage fully modified as a Google Pixel Phone and had no problem updating to his most recent build.
Speed is great, using my phone to play games like Lord of the Fallen, Fire Emblem, Various Emulators is a pure pleasure. Internet is fast and responsive. Phone calls and texting work as should. (Does report a very weak signal where I had full "lines" normally, but Meticulus stated on his webpage that this might be only reported back wrong to the system and not actually be an issue.) RAM management is great especially compared to the stock OS from Huawei. Camera is still slightly bugged as some users have issue with snap apps. The camera app provide with the last update works reliable enough, but can force close from time to time if overused.Picture quality is fine for my day to day use, put I didn't compare the Huawei stock picture quality with Meticulus build one. I found the open camera app from the play store slightly more reliable. All issues aside this is great work from Meticulus who has provided us with another great custom build ROM for the P9 lite.
For download and installation instructions please visit

And bye the love of God please read the whole page, take your time and FOLLOW Meticulus instructions, he put them there for a reason, and above all have fun!

Where did you get your themes sir?
Never used dual sim, have a 128gb Mem stick in it. Also not using any theme is stock Pixel launcher with Pixel icons installed via open Gapps, used aroma installer to get everything done, was quite tricky as the installer is heavily bugged under Meticulus TWRP ...

Yup, I did that. Went back to stock ROM for a while but wanted to go back to Lineage today, only to find he deleted everything. I really hope someone else will pick up his work. Someone without a superiority complex.

Meticulus raged because people kept asking him the same thing over and over again. His work was send everywhere else without his permission.
The whole thing with "donation" was an optional thing.
It was like: Hey! Want me to update or work at X rom for Y phone? Donation please."
Meticulus was indeed a bit "childish". I could at least help him with the roms (anti distribution and so on.)
I think that,
If you make it for yourself, then you share. Donation is welcomed.
If s.o akes you to do s.t, then you ask for rewarding sooner or later or just stop it.
S.o had paid him the downloaded rom then got it. They have no point to ask for more roms as they only paid for what they got. It is obviously.

Android P 9.0 for s6e+ BETA

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

What variant of s6e+ do you have? And sure let me peek at the logcat, I have never had it boot to black screen, normally the boot only fails if you did not flash the boot.img. the pie kl500.zip fixes the Wi-Fi, the other zip disables NFC, did you flash both ?

It's G928F variant, I don't have phone box with me, so can't check on it. I bought it here in Poland.

Give me a moment to look, you have the international variant but I don't think there's any hardware differences. I need to verify

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

Someone in the telegram group figured out that if he flashes aosip kernel headphones are working fine again with your Rom (im not sure if this is helpful for you, but I don't have access to an USB c adapter currently so I can't provide logs)
Nice work man thank your for taking part of your time to develop ROMs for mix 2s
I tested the rom my only problem is battery life

Hi,
is now fixed. USB C adapter audio is now working. But the kernel is now updated to 4.9.137.
And I think the battery drain in deep sleep is good
Last Build:
http://luis-builds.de/downloads/android/LiquidRemix/Xiaomi_Mi_Mix_S2_(polaris)/
Or kernel update to flash:
http://luis-builds.de/downloads/lineageos/rr/Xiaomi_Mi_Mix_2S_(polaris)/LuisKERNEL/
You can flash the Oreo version and powersave kernel.

The only issue I am having right now is that my phone will lock itself after using it for 5 to 10 minutes. I can have a video playing or I could be typing a message and the screen will turn off, then turn back on to the lockscreen.

I had exactly the same problem.
Android Auto.
Works for a while then the screen will flash on the phone and when I go to disconnect the phone the screen is black and it won't wake up. You can tell its trying to work cause it'll flash on the screen once and a while. This problem occurs on every custom pie roms I have tried. Treble roms work fine and Oreo roms.
Working well for me so far!
2018.11.21 build was unbootable (device turns off after booting) Now I see this buid was deleted from LiquidRemix folder, and latest is 2018.11.19 build.
I figured out there were many changes on changelog. The question is: Do you expect to release a rebased build or something similar? Im hiped! LOL
The vendor not provided?
Hello Friends,
today I have stopped the dev for the polaris device. My polaris device is broken an now I will buy a another device.
Thanks for your support.

[Stable][ROM]LineageOS 15.1 for Z5C (suzuran)

Hi all:
Here is a LineageOS 15.1 ROM for Z5 compact.
Download 2021-10-17
This is a 7z archive with the zip'ed rom and the md5 file in it. Please unpack this archive, copy the included two files somewhere to your device, reboot into twrp and flash this zip file. Enable md5sum checking. The zip file itself is not signed, so you have to disable zip verification.
Kernel sources
Tree sources
Features:
OS Version: 8.1.0 Oreo
Kernel: Linux 3.10
New: Android security patch level: 5 October 2021
Using sony blob's from stock version 32.4.A.1.54
Important informations:
You should be familiar with general installation of custom roms.
Required for installation: TWRP 3.2.1(pick the version from 2018-02-23!!!)
OR use my self built TWRP-version 3.6.2!
This ROM needs a clean install, old /data may cause problems!
This ROM is pre-rooted.
This ROM comes with F-Droid and UnifiedNLP.
It is highly recommended that your device is running (or HAS RUN in the past!) the latest stock ROM from Sony (32.4.A.1.54) before flashing this ROM.
Otherwise the baseband files may not match.
Working:
Phone calls
SMS
Manual mobile network search
WIFI
Bluetooth
Fingerprint
GPS
Location services
LiveDisplay (see attached pictures)
Enforced SELinux support (see attached picture)
New: Camera; built-in app (Snap *) ) and 3rd-party apps (Thanks to @torukk)
*) Snap is only working with main camera! If you switch to the so called "selfie" camera, the app crashes and can't be restarted any more. If that happens, you have to clear the app storage (long press app -> app info -> clear storage). OpenCamera is working in both modes.
These things are NOT working (don't ask!)
Encryption
FM-Radio (not included)
Maybe some more things are not working.
Use this rom at your own risk! It comes without any warranty! I'm not responsible for any damage! If you don't agree with that, don't try to flash this rom in any way.
Changelog
Berni thank you for your relentless efforts!!!!!

This is amazing! Thank you. Hope the SMS and Camera functionality issues eventually get sorted out soon.

I've lost my hope completely! I know there are brilliant developers around here, but kitakami is more than dead and no one (except me :angel: ) spends any time on it...
But this is a real good working device and I can't understand why I should change it!

I know that xda-users has collected money and buying a phone to a developer to make everything work.
(Like this thread:
https://www.google.com/amp/s/forum....neageos-dev-erfanoabdia-moto-x4-t3808858/amp/
)
As I don't can contribute to get any of the issues to work, I can contribute with some money in this case.
I don't know any developer who would accept this deal though.
Just an idea.
Please don't give up, now that you are so close.

Same here!
I've been at some phone dealers the past week to have a look to other/newer devices and I talked with many people about that and what I want and need!
The first idea was a xz2c (or much cheaper!) a xz1c. But everybody told me not to buy one of these devices! They aren't as good as older devices, like our z5c!
The second idea was (don't laugh!) an iPhone 8! A friend of mine gave me his used iPhone 6 to play around with it.
But, that's not my world!
I can't get access to the filesystem!
I can't copy a file from/to my computer simply by connecting the device via usb cable. I always have to use this fuc*** piece of malware named iTunes to copy something (only pictures i.e.)
So I decided to stay with my z5c as long as it will live! :good:
error 7 !!! , i use twrp 3.1.1-0
I edit, updated to 3.2.1 and correct. Rom promising, you only need to have a network for calls. Very agile and smooth

What about battery live? As long as I see, the battery drains faster than with los 14.1..
I'm sorry I can not answer that. I was not able to connect to the voice network and I need the suzuran jijiji. It becomes strange the "no use" of opengapps, but use titanium backup or to recover several apk and everything was correct, until WhatsApp. I am waiting to put voice network to give it a second chance. Regarding being able to make calls, the settings tell me what company I have, I can use mobile data, but the sim is not registered in the network. I have used * # * # info ... to see what happened and did not register in the tests. Normally, other rom give the option of downloading from your provider the configuration of the network, but I have not found that option, and if I search for a network manually, no results are displayed. I'm sorry I did not persist in the tests.

You're right! Thats'.... weird! I swear, that has worked in the past!
There is actually a data connection but no voice connection (see screenshot [in german]) And the signal strength is not ok too.
I'm actually building a new version and I'll see if this error is gone...

Oh, you can use GApps! But as I said, weird thing may happen! For example, you can't access the settings to (de)activate bluetooth or nfc. The system crashes immediately with a kernel panic, the led flashes red and the system restarts!
but use titanium backup or to recover several apk
Click to expand...

You can fetch apk's with yalpstore too!
Workaround for this issue:
"Play" a little bit with the "Set preferred network type" in "Phone info" in the *#*#info#*#* part. When setting it to "LTE/UMTS auto (PRL)" or "LTE/CDMA auto (PRL)" or "LTE/WCDMA auto (PRL)" (or like this) I can connect to the network...
...but only for one single outgoing phone call... :cyclops:
I know, this is far away from beeing satisfying, but I don't have another idea in the moment... :angel:
Give it hard, thanks for your time. I'm still looking for new things to test....:good:
There is a guy that managed to make the camera work (but with low quality).
If he gives the rom to berni and he takes a look at it, we might have a fully working oreo rom.
I already tagged him in a few places, let's cross our fingers

See my answer in the general Z5 oreo thread...
Little bug discovered:
if you go into the "printing services" section and click on the default one that's enabled, the phone crashes.
Maybe it happens with custom ones as well, have to test that
Edit:
Another bug, if you enable the long press of the Power button to turn on the flashlight the phone reboots.
This is probably because of the non working torch/camera tho
Edit 2:
Night Light isn't working

Holy s**t you actually did it. I thought the Z5c is never getting Oreo. I applaud you for this. Looking forward to a more usable version in the future
