I've preloaded the ROM with tweaks, but if you feel that it is still laggy, just flash this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software-hacking/android-l-booster-1-soon-t3030796
How to flash:
(Philz Touch Recovery is recommended to flash CyanogenMod 12.1 based ROMs)
Goto wipe>clean to install ROM
Goto install>select exodus.zip
Goto install>select you favorite set of gapps.zip
Goto wipe>wipe dalvik cache
Reboot.
Q&A:
Q: Internal storage is not present at file manager
A: In order to make sdcard as the default storage, I need to remove the emulated storage(which is the internal, our device doesn't use emulated storage)
Q: App corrupting when moved to sdcard
A: Again, it has something to do with storage
Q: How to use Xposed and greenify ?
A: Flash supersu.zip first. Then, extract the link given in this post, then boot to recovery and flash the xposed-v67-sdk22.....zip and reboot. Go to the extracted then install Xposed.apk and greenify.apk.
Q: What is Greenify for ?
A: Freezing apps when not in use. This is very useful. Hibernate the apps installed from play store. This ROM has poor ram management

3rd party VPN
wonderful!
but 3rd party VPNs dont work.
is there a fix?
hotspotshield, psiphon, and the like can connect to server, but they cannot tunnel the whole device.

VPN isn't fix until the now. With cm13 now booted to generic devices, I think they will no longer work on fixes for cm12.1.

CyanogenMod 12.1​
Code:
I'm not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war,
or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please do some research if you
have any concerns about features included in the products you find here before
flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the
finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
Note: If you're on Miui 7, flash the following stock ROM zip before flashing any of the custom ROM available on the forum.

CyanogenMod 12.1, ROM for the Xiaomi Mi 4i
Contributors
omerjerk, dh.harald
Source Code: http://github.com/omerjerk
ROM OS Version: 5.1.x Lollipop
ROM Kernel: Linux 3.10.x
Based On: CyanogenMod
Version Information
Status: Stable
Created 2015-09-28
Last Updated 2016-01-03
[This post stands deprecated as of the latest release. ]
First of all I'd like to thanks dh.harald, smoki3, k2wl and everyone else who helped in building up the device tree.
In other ROMs, the biggest problem is of random reboots/shutdowns and that Clash of Clans is not working. Initially, I spent for over a week to fix those bugs but really couldn't find what actually causes the above two issues.
The problem lies in the kernel because flashing intersectRaven kernel or the stock kernel for that matter fixes the above two issues.
Unfortunately, I couldn't track down the commit in the mi4i-dev/dh.harald kernel source which causes these problems.
So, I started with the stock kernel, booted it with CM, made WiFi drivers working and applied the patches from intersectRaven's kernel source.
Now everything is working with no random shutdowns and with CoC working.
I'll keep maintaining this ROM now.
Also, I'm not planning to bump the kernel version because I have feeling that some change while bumping the kernel version only is what caused the problem in the first place. Neither does bumping the kernel version gives any performance boosts.
However, I'll keep making important changes in the kernel as required.
Installation Instructions:
1. Root your phone.
2. Copy the ROM zip to your phone (the link of the ROM zip in the first post).
3. Flash TWRP using Mi4i toolkit. (Advance users can flash the image manually from this link).
4. Reboot the phone to recovery mode.
5. Wipe data/factory reset.
6. Flash ROM zip file.
7. Flash GApps (can be downloaded from here)
8. Reboot to System.
9. Enjoy!
going to try this once i figure out why my CM12.1 goes to black screen at startup
camera performance?
Thanks for taking out time to build this, I am looking for a pure stock experience in Mi4i and your build seems to be very close.
Can you please post some camera shots taken indoor and outdoor?
For installation, just factory reset from twrp or full wipe (include wipe system)???.
btw you should write how to install.
Is it as smooth as Wilson3q's build. The reason why I'm comparing is that out of all the custom ROMs out there, I find his ROM the smoothest.

I get the recent apps swiping lag. I made the mistake of flashing the stock gapps so now im re-flashing and flashing the kernal. But so far it seems good other then a little issue i had with APNs and data.
The setup screen is actually very laggy and i don't have a keyboard to type in my wifi password.

I haven't used his build. I can't say how does it stand in comparison to his build.
In this release, I aimed more at getting the bugs fixed (random shutdowns and CoC not working) which were becoming too annoying.
I'll now be focusing more on making it even smoother.
I'd suggest you to try and see for yourself how it stands.
I flashing dh.harald's build now as i couldn't go past the setup screen cause play services kept crashing after i re-flashed the rom and gapps.
I'm reinstalling your build currently.

Messaging replaced by messenger
Cm camera replaced by Google camera
Email replaced by gmail
Gallery replaced by photo

[ROM] CyanoBiz - CM-13.0 - Doze enable - n7100 / Galaxy Notes2

/!\Thread will be moved in Android dev section by moderator..../!\
Hi!
I share you my own build based on Ivan andI9300's works with my works.
This ROM will NOT work if:
[fix in next build] - you have partitonned your system (less of 1GB of free espace)
Code:
/*
* Your warranty is now void.
*
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
*/
What's news in this ROM:
-Full CM-13
-RIL code's based on I9300 Github
-Apps dex-preoptimization (speed up first boot)
-Brightness setup updated
-Swap activated (kernel)
-IO SHEDULERs added (kernel)
-DOZE Activated and working - (see screenshots)
-No bugs with auto rot.
-No bugs with camera
-No bug with BT (thanks P.A.N. from i9305 github)
I let you try it and report. This build will be updated every weeks.
How install it:
-Just install it over another CM13 Roms without wipe.
-You came from CM-12.1, you need to wipe all datas (system-data-cache-dalvik).
If you wipe all datas, after install GApp you may will have an error with AOSP Keyboard (crash):
How install GApps:
-Install the Rom, and directly after, install Aroma GApp
-Select all that you want WITH Google Keyboard. After have selected your apps, choose to delete KeyboardStock!!.
-Don't install Google Camera, it dooesn't worked!
-Install GApps, wipe cache and reboot
Or you can install the apk that i share, and deactivate Old Google keyboard
Then please DL Android keyboard apk, and save your current ROM before updated!
How DOZE works:
-download from xda doze setting editor or naptime from PlayStore
-Edit times to force Doze to be activated more fast (see my screenshots, i use this timers)
To try Doze you must let your phone, it will not work of you have your phone in a pocket on a car/train etc etc. If a sensors detect a movement, the phone becomes ACTIVE.
You can log Doze states by commands from adb:
Code:
Dumpsys battery unplug
Dumpsys deviceidle force
Dumpsys deviceidle step

No, just a different way to code. I haven't say nothing about mod/others.
I know that many users had pb with Ivan's build (auto rot./data etc...). If i can offer another way, it's a good thing.
For information, i had NEVER installed Ivan's build, only mine, i don't know if you will have sames pb.
My Rom works since 1 mounth on my phone.

Don't install Agni kernel, if the dev. doesn't have activated Swap, you may have a bootloop (fstab file error, partitions not mount).

Move your backup to internal storage and then restore. I didn't let titanium mess.with my sd card. Because many where reporting, loss of data and ****.
Hello! i follow your guide, but i have the same result :S Now i will do a list what i do when install the rom:
I use TWRP 3.0.0-0
1) Wipe all partitions (dalvik/art - cache - system - internal memory)
2) I install the rom zip.
3) I install Aroma Gapps directly and in custom setting i also install google keyboard and removing old aosp keyboard)
4) Finally i reboot, but only time system go in bootloop animation (i try it for 10 minutes)
i don' t use agni kernel
My rom base firmware is XXUFND3
Thanks for help me all
Wow, this ROM rocks, very stable, definitely a daily driver for me. Ok, this is what I did for install:
1) Use TWRP 3.0 to wipe the phone completely (internal storage included)... TWICE
2) Install the ROM via TWRP.
3) Install OpenGAPPS via AROMA installer, added the google keyboard inside the installation. - Make sure you select 'forceclean'
4) Boot, AOSP keyboard error, went into settings, and selected the google keyboard as default.
5) Flashed SuperSU zip file via TWRP
6) Installed BusyBox via Google Play
7) Flashed Xposed by romracer
8) Installed Xposed istaller
9) Installed 3C toolbox Pro from Google Pay
10) Proceed to delete the AOSP keybord and other useless items from system using 3C Toolbox Pro.
11) Installed SPenCommand.
12) Base system is now ready for loading everything else from the Play Store.
Only issue I have so far is that I cannot move programs into the system partition using either Titanium or 3C Toolbox. Other than that everything works fine.
One more thing, Google Camera works fine for me.

Hi,
Thanks to try the Rom and reports!
Have you tried to install gapps with the minimum? Just Android keyboard and force to uninstall stock keyboard?
Don't format external storage. It's not necessary.
FYI: i have begun to work on aosp...
Bizcuite
Hello everybody
Bizcuite yes i install minimum gapps + keyboard, play games and youtube. And yes i tick force uninstall.
No problem, i wait a future update of this rom :good:

Have you try to install only the Rom without gapp, to see if it boots correctly and after install gapps?
Bizcuite
Yes bizcuite i test it also without gapps, I don't know why it dosn't work just me xD
let's see if someone else has the same problem.
Install philz recovery mount all partitions and then wipe preload manually or just tap clean to install new rom. Then flash the rom.
No many reports or complaints from users.
Is it a good news? No download of the ROM or no bugs?

Hi is it compatible with f2fs format?
Hmm, looks interesting... lets give this one a go, shall we?
lollyjay said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Kernels support f2fs, firstly, not ROMs. The stock AOSP kernel with this ROM doesn't support f2fs. But if you find a custom kernel that supports f2fs you can use it and format your data and cache partitions to f2fs on any ROM. Secondly, f2fs is only faster on writes, so only data and cache partitions benefit from that file system. ROM support for f2fs (as had been popular a couple years ago) would only be to allow system partition to also support f2fs, which this ROM doesn't have. That type of support is pretty much a thing of the past because it's a pain in the ass to do since ROM zips started using block storage convention and there's no speed advantage to having system be f2fs anyway. Make sense?
I don't wanna hear about all the common f2fs issues that have nothing to do with the ROM if you do try it. These include:. Couldn't flash ROM/GAPPS because it says system partition too small, couldn't make or restore a nandroid, lost all my data because I didn't offload it first, lost all my data when my data partition got corrupted, wrong internal storage size reported, can't take photo/screenshot write to internal storage.
If you're smarter than the average problem solver and have a PC, an OTG, and enjoy offloading and moving stuff back, then the modest (if not just placebo) speed gain of going f2fs may be worth the risk of wasted time and lost data. If you're​ the user that uses a toolkit instead of a terminal, then I'd let that sleeping dog lie.
Your point(s) well taken. Personally I have found little to gain from f2fs., except for my old TF300T
This rom is superb!!! It contains just about everything I had ever dreamt of seeing on the lovely, old Nexus 7, from Nougat in full flow to Google assistant and Night Light. I can even watch some previously impossible TV by
using the 'hide' function in the new version 11.6 of Magisk along with Magisk Manager from the Playstore. Many thanks to the Dev for giving my Nexus 7 a new lease of life. This is super work.
this rom is great
but one problem i think.
if its possible, in next build remove some apk from system, like chrome, calendar, calculator, gboard, google fotos
please
its to free some system space

The ROM is in sync with @BeansTown106 source with the exception of my removing Google Camera 4.x from the Gapps because it's incompatible with Flo. Removing gboard would leave you with no keyboard, see the changelog in the OP.
Are you bumping up against a full system when attempting to flash more mods?
You're welcome to remove whatever system apps you want (before or after booting) if you need more system partition space. That said, the only apps I'd consider removing from built in Gapps, if they are still in source on the next go around, would be Hangouts, Chrome, and Photos.
@buffal0b1ll
Maybe there is a meaning remove gapps from rom...
That there were no questions on this topic)
Great rom love it so quickly

& Google Assistant​
DISCLAIMER:
Your warranty is now void by proceeding. Flashing your device's partitions or modifying its stock configuration poses an inherent risk of permanently damaging your device. By proceeding further, you are absolving me of any liability in the event your device is damaged or rendered inoperable. You -- and you alone -- are solely responsible for your device. Follow the instructions carefully and things should go smoothly.
ETHEREAL-OS v1.1​
As its name implies -- Ethereal -- this stock-based Lollipop ROM is very light weight & refined. It combines a pure stock experience with several features and enhancements beyond those of which are included by the manufacturer & service provider. Furthermore, this ROM has been debloated, and freed of those pesky /system apps for which many of us have no need or wish. However, should you have the need for those apps, I will eventually be providing a download link for the /system APKs that I removed.
REQUIREMENTS:
In order to flash this ROM to your device, TWRP custom recovery must be installed. While it is possible to flash this ROM using an on-device flashing utility, such as Flashfire, these instructions will be geared towards custom recovery. If you do not have TWRP already installed on your Alcatel Ideal, simply search the XDA threads for the files and instructions to do so.

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Download the ROM and save it to internal storage or, preferably,
an external micro-SD card;
2. Boot your device into TWRP recovery;
3. Perform a full wipe (/data, dalvik, /system & /cache). NOTE: If you saved the ROM zip on internal storage, DO NOT wipe internal storage. If you saved the ROM zip to external storage, format your /data partition;
4. Select INSTALL from TWRP's main menu, navigate to the storage location of the ROM zip,
select the file, and swipe to commence with installation. The process will take around two minutes;
5. When installation completes, to prevent possible boot looping, wipe cache & dalvik cache. Reboot system. NOTE: first boot may take several minutes. Do not interrupt the process and be patient. Subsequent boot ups will occur much faster.
6. After completing initial setup and signing in with your Google account, it is very important to go ahead and update Google Play Services and all GApps which require updates through the Play Store. This step is important to ensure proper functionality of the Google Assistant Launcher.

BUGS:
When reporting a bug, if you are not submitting a bug report, please provide, with as much specificity as possible, the exact nature of the bug. Screenshots can be helpful as well.
NOTE:
I am in the process of adding more features to this ROM, such as the CyanogenMod 12.1 Theme Engine interface or Substratum OMS management. I was not able to implement theming just yet, due to my wishes to get this beta release posted as early as possible.
THANKS & MENTIONS:
I'd like to thank @Chainfire for his ceaseless development of SuperSU. Thanks to TeslaCoil Software for Nova Launcher. Thanks to Hootan Parsa for the best file management app on the planet: MIXplorer. Thanks to @Stericson for BusyBox. Thanks to Viper Acoustic for Viper4Arise for Android, and thanks to Dolby Technologies for Dolby Digital Plus.

Do you mean in the stock ROM? I never had any problems with the camera in that ROM. I also tested Open Camera and had the same problem

No I mean in this custom ROM. Does the Pixel Camera take and store photos OK? Is it just the video camera giving camera error?

OK. I may know where the problem is. I'll check the camera drivers this evening and try to iron it out. If so, I'll post a patch you can flash from TWRP to fix it.

Nice man thank you
Just curious is there a way on your custom rom to make the sd card part of the overall storage on my device?

Perhaps. I'll check on the possibility of adaptive storage. Yeah you can set it yourself by using a terminal emulator and entering the following:
adb shell sm set-force-adoptable true
I just wanted to let everyone know that the old Rro layers manager works with this OS... Some layers work, some don't... You just have to fool around with it to find one you like that works properly. Here's some of my settings screens with Jeremy Beck's Acid layers installed. For some reason I can't get the main settings screen's background to go dark to match. Same thing on the stock rom though... Does anyone know how to mod the settings app to change the background to black?

Did you type "su" first to grant root access? Also, be sure ADB Debugging is enabled in Developer Options.

I did type su to get root access but it did the same thing but I can't find adb debugging unless USB debugging is the same.
USB Debugging is the same as ADB Debugging on this device. You are correct there. I'll see if I can get adoptive storage enabled on mine. If so I'll make a flashable mod.

OK. The audio settings force close I can fix. That's a conflict between Spotify and Viper4Arise. I'll get a patch for it.

[ROM][9.0.0][beryllium] LineageOS 16.0 with MicroG

Hi folks,
LOS with MicroG has finally been released.
For people who don't know what the heck is this, it's besically LineageOS unofficial fork with built-in microG gapps implementation. That's right! It's the same LOS without Google spyware.
Some cool features of LOS with MicroG
1. Full Play Services compatibility:
This ROM has built-in microG free-as-in-freedom re-implementation of Google's proprietary Android user space apps and libraries.
This enables you to use every Google service you need without keeping another closed-source binary blob in your Android system.
2. Native F-Droid support:
LineageOS for microG comes with F-Droid already installed. You can use it to access plenty of FOSS applications
3. OTA updates like official LOS:
The ROM has OTA updates from upstream LineageOS weekly. In this way you always receive new features and security updates just few days after they are released mainline.
Installation instructions
This ROM and official LineageOS use different signing keys, so you can't flash this ROM on top of the official LineageOS. Clean installation is strongly suggested.
1. Download the ROM zip and vendor+firmware zip
2. Boot into TWRP
3. Wipe System, Data, Cache and Dalvik
4. Flash the Vendor+Firmware zip and the ROM zip
5. Flash Magisk (optional)
6. Reboot
Post-installation
First, open the "microG Settings" app and check if everything is OK in the "Self-Check" section; you will probably have to give microG some permissions, like location and file access.
1. UnifiedNlp
UnifiedNlp is the microG Network Location Provider, which provides the current location of the device without the use of the GPS. While Google's NLP can only use Google's servers for positioning, UnifiedNlp obtains the geolocation through different plugins, which interface to different services.
By default there are two plugins installed:
MozillaNlpBackend, which uses the Mozilla Location Service (online)
NominatimNlpBackend, which uses MapQuest's Nominatim service (based on OpenStreetMap) for geocoding (online)
If you want to use these plugins, go to microG Settings -> UnifiedNlp Settings, configure and enable both.
If you instead want different plugins (like the LocalGsmNlpBackend, which uses a local offline database of the GSM towers to obtain the location) you can download them in F-Droid and enable them in the same way.
Reboot and check whether UnifiedNlp is correctly set up in the "Self-Check" section of the "microG Settings" app.
2. F-Droid
You have the F-Droid Privileged Extension installed by default, why not use it? To make a good use of it go to the F-Droid Settings and enable auto updates.
3. Google Cloud Messaging
Many apps rely on the Google Cloud Messaging, a Google proprietary system to push notifications to your device. This feature is implemented in microG but, as not every user requires it, is disabled by default. If you need it, enable the "Google Device registration" and the "Google Cloud Messaging" features in the "microG Settings" app.
4. Weather service
If you want the weather features of LineageOS (like in the lock screen or in the cLock widget) you have to download a weather provider from here. Choose your favorite one, install it and configure it in cLock (or in Settings → Apps → Gear icon → Weather).

Sweet! Good to see official LOS microg.
Thanks for sharing brother.

Battery life is amazing since the notorious Google Play Services is not present on this ROM. Performance is more or less the same. The main reason people use MicroG over other GApps is because of privacy and battery.
And talking about your last question, I guess you wipe System partition everytime you do a clean flash. So yeah, it's completely safe to wipe System partition.

You can easily get contacts.vcf file from google and just import it in your normal contacts app. Takes a minute only.

OP, I will suggest to add 'Flashing DFE' also in the first post instructions, for people who don't want to get encrypted.
Interesting project, good job!
Thread cleaned!
Personal attacks will NOT be tolerated on this private development site!
Found work can be posted in NEWS sections with proper credits
If the original developer does not wish it posted they can request it be taken down
No one else has that right!
Thank you all for your cooperation

Works as expected. No issues. Running it on tissot, bacon and now testing on poco! Thanks for reminding!

Because it is microg ROM. Gmail will not work.
surely, the answer could have been more elaborate. and yes, Gmail can work with microg, but in my case, I have not succeeded.

Thank you very much for the reply! I think my problem is not in the mail client, but in the authentication of credentials that access my contacts, calendar events and emails. I think that this issue is not yet solved
Does 0805 build have included vendor? I can see only 5.62MB vendor.new.dat.br which is usually 280MB on official one.
For some reason i won't get the UnifiedNLP working on my Poco F1.
I did a clean install, coming from the latest MIUI global ROM and followed the post install guide on https://lineage.microg.org/. The only additional Tool i installed was the latest Version of Magisk.
**EDIT**
I reinstalled microg LineageOS without Magisk, but it still does not work.
Any suggestions?
Most probably you've hit version with support for something called Qualcomm Location. It was fixed in build on 27th November because thingy was not working well (also because it is closed source soft).
AFAIK there are two ways to fix it:
- install LOS >=2711.
- patch framework-res.apk to force use UnifirdNlp. There should be some info about procedure in a LOS thread though I'm not 100% sure.
