This thread is for the latest unofficial builds of CyanogenMod 7 for the Samsung Galaxy S 4G. This version is based only on upstream CM7 (currently CM 7.2.0 RC1). We have not made any theming changes, apk changes, etc. It's exactly how it would be on any other phone that receives CM7 nightlies (usually just slightly more broken). CyanogenMod 7 is stable enough on this phone where it can be used as a daily driver, provided a feature that you require is not broken. That said, you may encounter issues, so don't rely on everything. This is a beta port but we're getting very close to being ready to start the process of becoming official.
This thread is for development. If you have a problem and don't post logs (where relevant) or provide any detail, I will ignore you.
Please report issues with proper grammar, thorough explanation, and speak in a respectful manner. If you are reporting an issue that has already been reported, post some logs (logcat, dmesg, kmsg, last_kmsg, etc).
Working:
MTD and YAFFS2.
Tiny Preempt RCU in the kernel for lower memory allocation overhead.

Known Issues/Bugs
Check the Device Issue Tracker and the Kernel Issue Tracker
WiFi reception is reportedly poorer than the KJ6-based ROMs. (Please report if the new wifi driver has helped!)
If you find more issues, please check with CM7 gerrit before you think it's a problem with something we've done.
If you find an issue, please provide any relevant logs. It's also preferable to post it to our github issue tracker.
If the error is occuring in /proc/kmsg or /proc/last_kmsg, it's definitely kernel related. Post it on the Kernel Issue Tracker
If the error is showing up in logcat, chances are it can be fixed through modification of our device tree. Post it on the Device Issue Tracker.

My SGS4g is going up in a rocket this week but after that if I have any free time let me know if I could help you in any way
Incoming internet calls work well. I'm using my sgs4g exclusively on wifi, so I can't comment on mobile network connection; however, wifi strength is a bit weak.

Happy to see this stay up.
Running R6 currently because I found it had better battery life than R7, even though (maybe because?) it doesn't properly report which apps burned down the battery (Settings->Applications->Battery shows 33/33/31 for the Cell standby/Wifi/Phone idle, with 2% for display and 2% for a game). With R6, from 6am-9pm (15 hours), battery goes down about 50% with moderate scattered usage including some games that burn fast battery.
If any logs are desired with either R6 or R7, just let me know what to run. Thanks.
Glad to see that you are still going to be contributing! That's awesome. You guys have been doing excellent work!
Thanks for all of your help.
In an email I sent to teamacid members:
M_T_M has helped to convinced me to stick around.
I'm gonna take two weeks off from hacking to get my life sorted out
and to clear my mind.

unlocked and updated.
Until then, I'll be hangin out in #teamnerd in case you guys need any help.

Nice to see you'll be back Bryan. You've done so much for our phone already, and you're a great dev, and put up with more than you should have to. Wish that was enough to make life not suck.

Not that I don't have access to *nix. but will there be a build to install that is similar to the way everyone is used to such as CWM, Basically a windows version?
Just a question of curiosity, I'm happy to see CM 7 here on our devices and am excited to see a final build once everything has been worked out.
Thank you very much for working on this build and to whoever helps out with it! you are a credit to the community.

Even on the Galaxy S, you have to heimdall the zImage(boot.img... same thing) as the first step to moving over.
After the heimdall step is done, you basically install cm7 through cwm.
We don't have RomManager/GooManager support... yet, but that will be worked out later.

If you talk to pawitp over on that side, he can walk you through the two-stage recovery flash we do now. Going from BML to MTD does not require heimdall or Odin anymore on the i9000, Captivate, etc.

Yes, our cm7 build uses the same two stage recovery.
But for some reason, I still have to heimdall the boot.img.

on topic: didn't want to leave CM7, but i'll be back once bryan comes back
After using it for two days, I'd say the the rom is very stable. Battery is relatively great. I'm not having the wifi or 4G issues that people are talking about. USB transfer worked for me once yesterday, but now when I try to hit the message about connecting to the computer (can't remember what it says exactly) in the notification menu, it doesn't open the option. Other than that though, everything is great.
Also, I think FB's instructions for installing the rom should be pasted here. It's what I used, and it seems to have caused zero issues.

I think it might be, because the partition layout differences between bml and mtd, but at that point the real differences only exist beyond the system partition.

This is an AOSP-based build with extra contributions from many people which you can use without any type of Google applications. I found a link from some other project that can be used to restore the Google parts, which can be found below or elsewhere in the thread. I've still included the various hardware-specific code, which seems to be slowly being open-sourced anyway.
Visit the CHANGELOG for a full list of changes and features!
All source code is available at the CyanogenMod Github!
If you'd like to to contribute to CyanogenMod, checkout our Gerrit instance.

1. Unlock/root your device and install Clockwork Recovery via ROM Manager or Amon_RA's recovery image (You MUST be NAND unlocked!)
2. Do a Nandroid backup!
3. Update your radio if necessary
4. WIPE
5. Install the ROM
5. Optionally install the Google Addon
- Upgrading from earlier CM7 or nightly build?
1. Do a Nandroid Backup!
2. Install the ROM (your Google apps will be backed up automatically)
HOW TO REPORT BUGS OR PROBLEMS?
- Was it a hard reboot? Get me the file "/proc/last_kmsg".
- Was it a soft reboot or a "boot loop"? Run "adb logcat" and get me the full output.
- Pastebin links preferred
- Please use the issue tracker whenever possible!
Please visit the CyanogenMod Wiki for step-by-step installation walkthroughs and tons of other useful information.

Thank you to EVERYONE involved in helping with testing, coding, debugging and documenting! Enjoy!
CM7 FAQ/ISSUES​
This is being compiled by ausch30, and all credit should be given to him. I am simply helping by posting it here in the second post.
Visual Voicemail: Flash into sense, backup with titanium, flash back into CM7, restore data. Or use Google Voice or Youmail
WiFi Sleep Policy: Change WiFi sleep policy to never, menu>wireless and networks>WiFi settings>menu>advanced>WiFi sleep policy. Honestly it's been so long since I've done this I'm not quite sure what it fixes but I know it's been mentioned quite a bit. I do know that this will significantly improve your battery life also with some ROMs changing the WiFi sleep policy setting to never sleep can prevent random reboots.
Camera Shutter Sound: To remove shutter sound you need to remove shutter.ogg in system>media>audio>ui. Remove it through Root Explorer, ES File Explorer, ADB, etc
GPS fix: Flash into a sense rom, download MSL reader from the market, input ##GPSCLRX# into the dialer, reboot, reflash into CM7
Facebook Contacts that fail to Sync: First go into the Facebook app and select settings>sync contacts>sync all, then go into sync and sync now. Now go into your contacts list and select a contact the press menu>edit contact>menu>join, you should see all your facebook contacts in there and you can join them to your phone contacts. After that you can go back into the facebook app and switch back to sync with existing contacts.
Google Apps: For apps such as market, gmail, etc. you have to download and flash the latest gapps after flashing the rom, it can be found here http://goo-inside.me/gapps/latest/7/universal/
Does the camcorder app support 720p video recording: As far as I know not yet, but they are working on it.
HDMI: Working for the most part, not integrated into the rom yet. Should be in there by CM7 final.
How can I get the swype? : Go to Swype.com and sign up for the beta, it's really simple to download and install from there. http://beta.swype.com/ Thanks ItsDon
There are a lot of kernel questions. There is a stock kernel included in the rom (a rom won't work without one). There are alternate kernels available, if you have issues and are using an alternate kernel, post those questions in the associated thread.
This is what I have so far. I'm not foolish enough to believe that after posting this there won't still be people that post questions without bothering to look anywhere for the answer but my hope is that it might help to answer some questions and reduce the number of repeat questions.
Edit: SD card speed issues, I'm not sure if this has been fixed in newer releases yet
Edit: The issue is SD card speed over USB mount, use the "USB-MS" option in Amon_RA recovery to mount your SD card. That has not been addressed in RC2 or any of the nightlies so far yet. Thanks aph. There is a know issue that has been logged (#3067) by the CM team about the SD card becomming "Damaged" during RC2 install. This affects a small number of phones with a possible work around of a second reboot after the install. Thanks to s2kdriver

You aren't going to get 4G by flashing a dodgy kernel. It's all about the userspace code, and it's almost ready (thanks to Shinzul, Toast, and everyone else) and we are hoping to have it in for 7.0 final.

This kernel is intended to be a simple rooted kernel, based off samsung stock, with only simple mods ... its feature are:
NEW!!! NOW HAS CWM 3.1.0.1 RFS/EXT/USB CWM REBOOT RECOVERY AND ROM MANAGER SUPPORT!
I do think this will be my last froyo kernel build... unless some bug comes up, that has to be fixed...
Kernel developers: feel free to rip my initramfs, for cwm 3.1.0.1 reboot recovery, it should work with all known builds, and may need just a little editing of the .rc files and sdx.sh in /sbin, to get your mods in place. The github is updated, and is ready for prime production!
Changes and features as of v1.05:
* CWM reboot recovery updated to 3.1.0.1 Purple edition, with customized recovery for the Epic4G
* Voodoo sound updated to v9, from supercurio
* busybox 1.18.0 removed, and cwm recovery busybox full 1.16.2 is replacing it, making the kernel even smaller
* thumbEE kernel support reverted, as my testing indicates that deep sleep is affected, draining battery faster
Changes and Features as of v1.04:
* ClockworkMod 3.0.2.5 Reboot Recovery, compatible with RFS and ext4
* fixed busybox DNS, thanks Rodderik!
* Added scripts for USB Mass Storage, mountums & umountums
* Voodoo Sound Driver v8 update, from supercurio
* RNDIS / wired USB tethering support built in from kernel
* THUMBEE built in from kernel for cortex a8 optimization, thanks Rodderik!
* build_kernel.sh modified to reflect EpicCM/nullghost script, but with some special revisions.
* rclean updated, to clean root files without any errors, in case would like to be used, before a stock kernel flash
* Root and busybox with minimal system mods
* designed to allow OTA update after flashing back the stock kernel, provided the user hasn't modified other necessary system files
* RFS and ext4 compatible
* REBOOT RECOVERY TO CWM 3.0.2.5 BOTH RFS AND EXT4, ROM MANAGER COMPATIBLE
* CIFS, TUN, & TMCPSS Clamping enabled from kernel
* market app malware patch, writing blank /system/bin/profile at boot
* mkasick sysfs keyboard patch, with my keytimer script
* voodoo sound 7 by supercurio, controlled by voodoo control app in android market
* additonal custom scripts in /sbin for cleaning root, busybox, and flash kernels and recoveries
This kernel was built to replace the traditional one click root method for my all in one root and recovery script.

DRockstar.Clean.Kernel.EC05.v1.05.zip
NEW!!! for flashing with Odin, we'll have to get used to this, in future, for rooting the phone by flashing a rooted kernel
You can use this odin flash to effectively root the phone:

Credits:
* kain203: donated the use of an 8 core linux vm for my use in compiling kernels and the cwm binary. This *greatly* increased my productivity, and allowed me to edit and compile everything for cwm and my kernel, *all* from my Epic 4G, believe it or not...
* noobnl & joeykrim- this kernel was originally inspired by noobnl Andromeda kernel for eclair, and uses the same joeykrim root and busybox method
* Rodderik, without his guidance, patience, and original working victory_03_defconfig, this kernel wouldn't have been possible. Some commits in sources taken from his sources.
* supercurio, for his voodoo sound, commits directly from his github source
* mkasick, for his sysfs keyboard patch
* nullghost and tanimn, for help getting github set up, and having easy to follow github sources
* koush, for ClockworkMod, and help in finally getting dualfs support, and direct input for cwm
* vocaltreat, for purple cwm icon
* skeeterslint and Rodderik, for helping me get packages installed, and ClockworkMod binary compiled

Strange, you may want try rebooting the phone and trying again. This issue should have been resolved but then again I always had problems updating the profile/prl even when it wasn't on Sprints side with my first epic. I got a replacement (refurb) and haven't had any issues since.
Why would someone rate this thread less than 5 stars? ...
Anyways great job dude you released some good stuff
Hey DRockstar,
good work on putting out a clean kernel. I havent had any time to look into the modem delta thing lately.
Since you compiled the kernel you must know if the USB driver is compiled into the kernel. I'm suspecting it is right? If so maybe flashing a new kernel can actually fix my USB problem.

I didn't mess with the usb drivers, and no one has reported any problems connecting usb. You can feel free to see if this fixes your USB problem, but I doubt it will have any bearing on it, honestly.

Well I still don't understand how people with DK28 can have USB problems since they seem like independent systems. So if flashing DK28 screws up a USB config or something then flashing a new kernel might help. Its a long shot but worth a try.
Do you know if this one works with CM7 A4?

Thanks to everyone who has helped this rookie put all this together
Dr4stic, thomas.raines, racing19969, and many others who i dont remember thanks everyone.
Warning: if you rooted your phone using the blaze recovery you need to use Odin and push our custom recovery tar file located below. make sure to uncheck repartion. if you push this with the blaze recovery it could cause issue's.
ok so d4astic cooked us up a CM 10 mod unofficial and our very own CMW recovery here are the links, and we need someone who can grab this and take over because d4astic doesnt have this phone and has a nightly on the blaze, so here you go everyone. I've taken over running the builds so....
,,,let the fun begin....
One more thing make sure you push the recovery first because the blaze one won't work with this rom
WARNING: if you brick your phone its not my fault i did this and it worked out fine just so you know

thanks for posting it here... I will test it. Also you should post Gapps link. I have it.. but others might not and may flash the wrong Gapps.
This is NOT a rant...
These are some bugs I found so far.
1. Screen Orientation (Which OP mentioned)
2. While charging if you touch the power button It will black out and Hangs up (Pull battery and restart)
3. Camera sometimes having issues. (camera not found) but most of the time works perfect.
4. Call quality Low (Like all CM builds)
Rest everything seems to be very smooth. Google Now works without any issues.
I'm just writing this for information purpose only for those who like to use this build.
Thanks a lot to dr4stic for giving us this build.

Guys, turn off the notifications. The touchkey driver I used is the stock samsung one which doesn't have the BLN (button lights notifications) which CM is looking for. Whenever you get a message, or email, or really anything that would trigger a blinking LED, it's gonna crash the phone cuz the driver doesn't know how to handle it.

BLN was never checked at-least on my phone. But its the screen rotation issue made me rollback to Stock ICS. I know you're very busy... but if you can guide me where to look into for that issue I will. Thanks again for ur hard work.
He needs a log cat run during the screen rotation and during start up so he can see what's going on. I don't know how to do this yet I've been looking into it but don't really know where to start. Do you know how to do this

Another thing that would be nice, the output of dmesg.
Just a brief explanation of what these things are. Logcat is basically the general android system logs as it boots up and runs. The dmesg is the log specifically of kernel messages as it boots up. This often includes details on drivers and potential errors there. ADB = android debug bridge, a way to connect to android, push and pull files, get a shell on the system, etc...
Install ADB drivers: If you've installed the drivers necessary to use Odin with your phone, it should include Samsung's ADB drivers for the phone. So I don't think you need to worry about that.
Install ADB: Not great, but not horrible ADB install tutorial
As for the phone itself, ADB is automatically enabled within recovery. When the phone is booted up as, you know... a phone... you'll want to go into Settings -> Developer Options, find "Android Debugging" and make sure it's turned on. That will enable ADB on android.
Now, some sample ADB commands to make your lives easier...
Check to make sure ADB sees your device (you should do this whenever you connect your phone to your computer, just to make sure you won't run into any errors with the commands below):
Code:
adb devices
Grab the output of dmesg (two versions, see it or redirect to a file.. you pick):
Code:
adb shell dmesg
or
adb shell dmesg > C:\name-of-some-text-file.txt
Grab the output of logcat (two versions, see it or redirect to a file.. you pick):
Code:
adb logcat
or
adb logcat > C:\name-of-some-text-file.txt
* NOTE: This will continue to grab output until either the system reboots or you hit CTRL+C on your keyboard. If you're just looking for the most recent messages, let it run for a few seconds and then CTRL+C it out.
Get a Linux shell on the system:
Code:
adb shell
Restart local ADB server (sometimes necessary... if you KNOW your phone is connected and ADB stopped recognizing it):
Code:
adb kill-server
Thanks guys!
I began setting a dB up on my comp last night I have java installed and started on the SDK but I fell asleep will work on it some more today. Now I'm going to read the links you posted and see if my research went in the right direction. One thing I will tell you is I've been spoiled by windows. Setting this up has given me flashbacks to the days of DOS. Lol
Thanks for the info and the time to point us in the right direction.

Another easy way is install Droid Explorer (http://de.codeplex.com/) Power off phone when connected. then click on the logcat console button. It will open the command window and lines keep scrolling... Don't do anything till it completely boots. then Save the file (option on cmd window).
But i think the rotation issue is in the kernel so we might have to use the cmd line provided for that. U can use it in the same app.
Currently I'm back on ICS... So once I can't do it now. Today when I get some time I will re-install and run this.

It probably is in the kernel. That's why I want the output of dmesg as well.
Incidently, it seems my initial kernel patch is winning some reviews and with any luck, I'll have it in the official cm kernel fairly soon now.
I did a search in the play Store for Log Cat, there are numerous apps in there for saving, sharing logcats, will these do the job? I certainly seems it would be much easier than ADB. Just curious.

Well I'm all in. I was cleaning things up before loading everything up and accidentally deleted all my backups . Oh well, so far I'm loving this. Hope it's good to go for a daily or I'll be setting up a new ICS install too.
I could always upload one of my ICS backups to drop box for you if it comes down to that

Not a big deal. So far not having any issues other than rotate bug. Even notifications are working ok. I did turn off some notification light setting and I thought I saw something about softkey flash notification, but I couldn't find it again. Take me a bit to get used to the menu structure.
Everything is pretty smooth as of right now.
Unfortunately my phone randomly shut down twice today and I ended up going back to ICS for now. The first time I had foursquare open but had laid it down since the light changed and when I picked it up it was off, the second time it was just laying on the desk and when I picked it up it was off again. I did back it up before restoring ICS though. I've got a lot going on the next couple days and need a dependable device.
I might restore back to CM 10 and tinker with it when I'm not expecting phone calls.

@crpalmer, let me be the first to congratulate you on this! It's amazing how we have official CM support now!
Thank you very much!
Congrats again on your hard work paying off, and making it into AP. http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/0...-extended-to-the-samsung-galaxy-tab-pro-10-1/
Nice work. Think I'm about ready to do my first flash. . :good:
Congratulations on being official
It's with great interest I have followed the development of your T-520 version of the cm11, even though I don't have one myself. Why? Firstly, I'm amazed by the short time frame in which you actually accomplished this, and conquered the Exynos SoC. But, I'm also A proud owner of a T-900, and from what I can tell there is only the screen size that differs the T-520 from the T-900. In my mind, it should be feasible to port, though I might be wrong.... Maybe, you have some ideas of how to correct/evolve Shaheen's port of your ROM. Who knows, maybe at this point you're bored and need a new challenge, as the major obstacle is breached and, before the work with Android L begins... Besides, neither Shaheen, nor you own a T-900, why this should be a very simple task:laugh:
The current error report is as follows:

Thanks for reviving this one Shaheer,
After some problems in getting the full ROM onto the drive (all on my side), I finally got it up and working. The ROM is a lot snappier that prior versions, and is stable over all. Below is my summary of working/non-working functions. Additionally, with the all new TWRP 2.8.0.0, see post #55, the format of system and cache are instant, why ROM testing is a breeze.
I have noticed the following issues:
- WiFi connects, but loses password on reboot, same issue as earlier build
- Bluetooth: devices are seen, but do not connect - Error message: Can't connect
- External SD is not detected by device - see post #54, below, for more detailed info
- mtp - device does not mount on PC
- adb - device does not mount on PC
- Camera is broken - Error message
- Torch is broken - Error message
- Lid sensor - No reaction
- Capacitive lights - No reaction
- Sensors - No reaction
- IR blaster - No reaction
- Offmode charging - but it will not work on the picasso-wifi either, at least until tomorrow, 20140926
- Home button doesn't work correctly. It wakes up the device, but does not go to the home-screen
- Battery drain is significant - However, it might be my impression from heavy use of the screen while testing
Only two outstanding items (non-tested) from the list Shaheer posted below. I would appreciate if someone would test them and confirm if they are working, or not:
- Miracast displays - Most likely functional, given that the Chromecast dongle is working | Best Guess: yes
- Google Play Movies: downloading a video and then playing the downloaded copy. Apparently, crpalmer has received a CyanogenMod commit and the issue is fixed as of now, 20140925 | Best Guess: No

Anyhow, we (T-900 owners) would really appreciate your input, and I believe speaking for Shaheer as well, and to tap into your substantial knowledge and experience.
Once again, I'm really impressed by your accomplishments, and I sincerely congratulate you to the well deserved status as an officially recognized cm-developer.
Finally, if a tester is needed, I'll be around.
Thanks in advance.
Congrats! I appreciate your hard and nice work. Thanks :good:
I am so thrilled to see official CM support for Galaxy Tab PRO 10.1. Ordered mine couple of days.. and still in transit. They day I ordered.. I am thinking how will i live with touchwhiz..
I guess now i don't have to worry.. will root and flash right away once its here. Looks like everything is working. I don't care about small bugs if battery life is as good as stock
Thanks again
Good work !
I am on GraveD stock ROM, running very well for a month.
But I plan to try CM11 asap.

Wow, thanks for the great news @crpalmer!
WiFi easy fix
sorry wrong thread
@crpalmer,
I followed the instructions "How To Build CyanogenMod Android for Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1 Wi-Fi ("picassowifi")" (http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Build_for_picassowifi).
I faced issues with drmserver and gpsd on extract-files.sh : "Permission Denied"
I managed this by copying them to internal memory and them adb pull to their destination locations.
It's compiling now...
Which ir app are you guys using? I can't find one that works.
If you want to disable the soft buttons and use the on-screen buttons (I use the tablet a lot in portrait mode and the soft buttons get in the way all the time).
1. Enable soft keys : edit the /system/build.prop file to include the following line qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
2. Disable the soft keys : edit the system/usr/keylayout/sec_touchscreen.kl file and add # in front of the two lines
3. Turn buttons light off : go to settings -> buttons and disable backlight
4. Reboot
I don't think it was posted all in one place before.

Hmmmm. That's a good one. Very few vendor blobs tend to have restricted read permissions but apparently we hit two of them. I assume that it was actually drmserver.samsung though right? That's important if your build is going to have working DRM.
I made myself a note to figure out how to make that work better and/or document it better.
FYI, you can also download an existing build, unzip that file somewhere, and then run
./extract-files.sh /path-that-you-unznipped-to/
and it will pull all the files from that unzipped directory.

Did you get Infra Red ever to work? I use Touchsquid and it always worked with every ROM i tried.
But in CM11 it looks like it is broken. Maybe I am too impatient and i should wait a bit for CM to get IR working and go back to GraveD's ROM for a while.
Thanks for the hard work crpalmer!

Installation Instructions
Make sure you have a second partition on your SD card before flashing!!!! This can be created with minitool partition wizard on Windows or gparted on Linux.
If on a BML rom (stock-based GB)...
0. Read "Things to take note of" below
1. Reboot to recovery
2. Make sure your version of CWM is at least 5.x
3. Install zip. It will reboot a couple of times, don't be worried.
4. If you want root or Gapps, flash them now
If on an MTD rom (CM7 and all ICS+)(I tested CM9, CM10.1 and CM11)...
0. Read "Things to take note of" below
1. Reboot to recovery
2. Wipe data, and cache paritions (just in case). If updating to a newer build, you can probably skip this step
3. Install zip
4. If you want root or Gapps, install them now
The first boot can take several minutes. Be patient. If it takes 10+ minutes, pull the battery and reboot to recovery.
Things to Take Note Of
Humberos (the i9000 maintainer) has moved on to different projects which means no first-gen Galaxy S devices are being actively maintained. Builds may break at any time!
I actually have a T959P, not a T959V... It was released by Telus in Canada. It is a very similar device (I can run ROMs for the T959V with limited problems - ie sometimes I get wakelocks and the gps never works), it has a different GPS chipset and also uses different cell bands (but I can still use your guys modems but I lose access to the 850Mhz band). I have created a build specifically for the T959V as best as I can guess and also provide T959P builds.
The USB connection is MTP and not mass storage as Omni has removed mass storage. In recovery there is still an option to mount as mass storage device.
This build is very close to the official omni source code. This means that the recovery is TWRP and there aren't any added "features"
In order to get it rooted, you need to install SuperSu.
Gapps reportedly slow down the device significantly so tread carefully.

Thanks Time!
This would not have been possible without the following people:
Thanks to humberos for bringing Lollipop to the first-gen Galaxy S series. This would not have been possible without his work.
Thanks to FB and Dao for their work on the CM-11 device tree. I used several of their fixes.
Thanks to noiphonehere for his device trees and kernel, most of my work was based off of his.
Thanks to bhundven and the other members of teamacid for their work on the aries kernel.
Thanks to all others that have helped get this phone to where it is today!
Thanks to vcmerritt. A name you're probably not familiar with, but he was the only one to create something for the T959P and without him I'd still be on stock...
Build your own!
Follow the instructions at http://docs.omnirom.org/Setting_Up_A_Compile_Environment using the android-5.1 branch
Before doing a repo sync, put the galaxy_s_series.xml file from the Download folder in .repo/local_manifests folder of the source tree.
After syncing the source, open a terminal and in the directory where you downloaded the source code type "source ./build/envsetup.sh" and then "brunch galaxys4gmtd"
Changelog
Changelog for 07/03/2015 Build
Newer Omni source
Added volume controls and flight mode toggle to power button menu
Added Bigmem option. This increases available RAM by ~20mb but breaks 720p video recording. Humberos created the kernel setup and I integrated a toggle for it into Advanced device settings.
Selinux is now in enforcing mode. I had to modify the GPS startup to have any chance of getting here. Please let me know if it still works/doesn't work/never worked
Notifications are sometimes wonky. To fix, in Settings, go to Performance, then Advanced. Select Force high-end graphics and reboot your phone.
Changelog for 2015/07/20 Build
The data partition is now the second partition of the SD Card as opposed to internal storage
Gapps now work. If you get error 461 when installing from Play Store, a full data wipe should fix it. You can try experimenting with clearing data for the Play Store and/or Play Services or removing and re-adding your Google account if you don't want to do a full data wipe.
HSPA vs UMTS settings in DeviceSettings has been fixed
High-End graphics are forced by default to fix notification issue
ART parameters have been tweaked
Miscellaneous other tweaks, see my Github for details
Changelog for 2015/07/24 Build
Stabilized bluetooth connection
Fixed typo in GPS initialization. Does it work?
Added ability to use f2fs file system on /data. Supposed to give better performance
Added force fast charge and touch wake to kernel. Touchwake is accessible through its sysfs path, fast charge through Performance Settings, BatterySelinux currently denies these requests...
Changelog for the 2015/07/29 Build
This is a maintenance build. Very little has changed
Some more RAM freed (disabled some debugging stuff, TV-Out driver, IR driver)
Sepolicy updated for fast charge and touch wake
GPS initialization tweaked - unsure if works. If it doesn't, a dmesg would be appreciated
Changelog for 2015/08/02 Build
SElinux changed to permissive - this build only
GPS sepolicy changed - unsure if all necessary things are implemented
Changelog for 2015/08/13 Build
Selinux back to enforcing. Thanks to @anoymonos for the dmesg and @DerPugNa for offering to send me one as well
Fixed encryption
Changelog for 2015/08/31 Build
Updated Android version (5.1.1_r5 to 5.1.1_r12)(upstream Omni Change)
Restoring /system in TWRP should now work
When installing from BML, a chance is given to install gapps and/or SuperSu before rebooting
zRam is now actually used...
Changelog for 15/10/2015 Build
Fixed typo in updater.sh (thanks @FBis251!)
Update Omni source code - plenty of little tweaks since last build

Awesome work @xc-racer99!
Wow, bringing this ole device back from a coma here. Nice to see someone else willing to work on lollipop for this oldie but goodie. Keep this device alive man.
Edit: If you are in need for some GFX for this thread, let me know and I'll see what I can brew up for you.

I hope I can keep this great little device going a little longer, however it will probably get tough. I did a repo sync earlier today and things are starting to break. The last few builds haven't even booted. With humberos no longer maintaining the i9000 and aries-common, I've had to fork the aries-common repository to try to keep going. The only upside of this is that I now have a little bit more freedom and can add things in if I want to.
Thanks for the offer of the graphics. If I can get a new build working, then I'll probably take you up on your offer. I think I've traced the problem but I'll have to wait and see...
For anyone that is trying/has tried this out, I'd be very curious on the status of the GPS on the T959V. I'm interested in creating the sepolicies for it so we can put selinux into enforcing mode but I don't want to go to the effort if it doesn't even work right now.
I've downloaded the zip and one of the smaller Gapps packages...won't be able to flash until early next week...I'll be out of town...will post results later...thanks for keeping this phone current.
New Build Uploaded!
Download is still at the same link as before, just use the 2015-07-03 build
I managed to find out why my new builds hadn't been booting - it was because the syntax for using a custom kernel toolchain had changed.
Anyway...

On another note, I've had a look at re-implementing TV-Out support. It doesn't look promising as several of the functions in the android frameworks that it used have been tweaked.... Still working on it but don't hold your breath.
Also, if somebody could test dock audio that would be appreciated. I don't have any way of testing it. If it doesn't work, I do have an idea on how to fix it (for those interested, another almost-aries device, the Infuse 4G, had to modify things slightly to get it to work. I would try to emulate their solution).
Omg download nowwww....thanks my friend
Alright, I'm having some issues on the latest build with notifications and the lockscreen. I'm still working on tracing down the reason for the problem...

Hello, im a user of a t959v. And I've been using this rom for three days. Everything is fine and very smooth on this rom except that, I can't install anything from the playstore. I always get (cannot install app due to an error 963). And Ive tried all the gapps, even the new link provided but still no luck.

Good to hear that that's its (mostly) been working for you. I was hoping that the gapps problem was just me
Out of curiosity, which of the alternate gapps did you try?
A brief google of the error brings up a couple of possibilities...
Try an older gapps version. The ones from devloz on the i9000 thread devloz and the oldest revision for 5.1.1 are probably your best bet. Please be aware that Google Play store will automatically update!!! In order to prevent this, you will need to create a folder called "com.android.vending-1.apk" in /data/app (use a root explorer such as ES File Explorer or adb if you know how). If a file with that name already exists, delete it first.
Another thing to try would be to unmount your sdcard first before trying to install an app. I know, its a terrible work-around but it should work. This is because the error is that Google Play is trying to save some data on your sdcard but then for some reason it fails (I'm not sure why).
I'll hopefully get around to seeing if its a permissions problem after I find out what's been causing the issue with the notifications on the latest build.
P.S. Does the GPS work?
Early update...
...ROM flashed fine...a little slow to boot...about 3 minutes...but it booted.
...Gapps flashed fine...used 20150513_5.1.x package
...Installed Super SU (although I don't think that's necessary) and TB.
...So far only gave a quick test to camera and web browser...no problems.
...Am now in the process of re-installing user apps and data from TB...this will take a while.
When I'm done with that, I use Link2SD to link most of my user files to the SD card. After that is all set up, I'll test stuff like GPS, root access, etc. I'll post back later...maybe tomorrow.
But so far so good.
OK...I did some testing tonight and here's some results.
Working:
.it boots
.root
.browser
.playstore
.camera
.link2sd (about 180 mb free in internal)
.camera
.wifi
.email
Nor working:
.bluetooth
.google search/voice search
.just about all the rest of the Gapps
.tons of force closes including Maps so can't test GPS
Won't be able to do anymore testing until next week.

Alright, thanks very much for the update. I'll do some more testing here and see if I can solve anything. For me, bluetooth file transfers to the phone work but not from the phone.
I've been looking at the notification "error" where the lockscreen notifications do not appear correctly. It appears to have been introduced upstream with a merge. I'm having difficulty finding out exactly what changed and since no errors are being thrown in the logcat, it could be a while...
For testing the GPS, there's an app from the Play Store called GPS Test which does a nice job of showing satellites and whether or not you have a lock on them.
you're the man!
nice one! its nice that this device are still alive.! and now were on 5.1

No, it should be Humberos is the man! I basically re-hashed his code for the i9000 and used bits and pieces from people like Bhundven, noiphonehere, maxfierke, Dao, and FB to get things to work properly.
For a status update, I figured out the lockscreen notification problem. I have a new build being made that I hopefully will be able to upload in the next couple of days (internet dependent). TV-Out looks totally broken as the proprietary blobs no longer function. I don't have the know-how to make ugly hacks to get them to work. The new build will have SElinux in enforcing mode and have the different GPS initialization (like the last build) until someone tells me that it doesn't work
Uh-oh, looks like I jumped the gun.... Having problems once again
Any updates on getting the play store to work? I have searched, downloaded, and tried every gapp made for 5.1. I found that I can load any app on the rom, if I get the APK version of it.

Darn, so its still not working. Not surprising. I've been struggling on the notification issue and am at my wit's end as to what the problem is. I don't think its only our phone as several i9000 users have been reporting it as well. Whether it is only the first-gen Galaxy S series that is having the problem or not is anyone's guess. My programming skills are insufficient to fix the issue!
I'll have another look at gapps over the next couple of days and see if I can figure out a combination that works 100% of the time.
I'm assuming the error message is still 963 or does it silently fail now? Its probably related to the fact that we have only an external sd card and no internal sd card like most devices...
All the problems with the notifications that I've found are:
Only one notification will show up at a time
Large notifications such as the music player do not render properly. They are cut off at the normal notification size and occasionally it seems as if there are two layers there (one for the small version, one for the bigger version) (see attached picture, taken with VLC as the media player, but also appears with Apollo)
Notifications don't always show up. A little icon appears in the top left corner of the status bar but no notification is present. Seems hit or miss
The words No notifications appears in the lockscreen just above the clock when there are no notifications. Otherwise, a notification (and only one) which can't be clicked covers part of the clock
