Moto G sources

Motorola has released the sources of our smartphone
Here is the link: https://sourceforge.net/projects/motog.motorola/files/

Hehe
Motorola hasn't ''released the source'' for the G, many things needed to the fun start will probably be out along the next days. But it's a beginning

anyone who knows what their doing can build any of the AOSP based rom's for the moto G, with the sources available. (unofficial)
but if your asking if its been announced that the moto G is getting those officially then i have no idea.

Yes i'm talking about announcement by the MIUI , CM or PA Team. I ask it to Silencer96.

most official builds come from people maintaining unofficial builds, so you will more than likely see it here before its made official

New Version Source:
14.10.0Q3.X-84-14
http://sourceforge.net/projects/motog.motorola/files/14.10.0Q3.X-84-14/

As far as I can tell this is only the sources Motorola are legally required to open source.
Sorry guys, no device configs here

Yeah, the kernel configs are what's legally required by Motorola. Every manufacturer has to release the sources as part of the GPL. It's really nothing special

They legally don't have to but if they want to be googles favorite then they will they could release a manual and still be aosp

I'm working in a fully device config based in CM configs from other motorola phones, and i expect a build in the nearly days.

Is there something Motorola have not released that they have done for other phones? Would it be worth requesting?

Is licenses stuff, some android parts are GPL(Open source), these are Kernel and minor things, the rest of important part(Device and Vendor) are APACHE2 and the brands are allowed to don't release it.

Do the device and vendor repos contain drivers or just configs? Sorry for the noob question...

Awesome!
It would have been interesting to post links i.e download links, sources (if open source) etc...
Edit:
I have Mediatek, not a chance to get that working?

Downloads, sources etc are in the efidroid website which is listed under the video description. Sadly as far as I know efidroid only supports Qualcomm chipsets.

Anyone knows if some dev is at work for that? Do we expect that any oreo custom rom will be available after miui oreo rom or not?

devs are working on it, bu CAM will work only after Miui O

Reading in other forums miui O is not planned in short time, so we have to patiently wait.

Sony Xperia XZ PREMIUM G8142 US Customized Android 9 Fingerprint?

Hey y'all!
Would anyone know how to get the fingerprint sensor working on a Sony Xperia xz premium G8142 US Customized Android 9? I know you can by flashing a foreign firmware but would like to just flash a certain part of the foreign firmware to keep my firmware as US Customized to keep Volte and wifi calling on t-mobile.
Thank you
Kountry

I have the exact same question, that's the only thing holding me back to flash the us firmware. I have seen a tutorial on Reddit on Android 8 but I want to see what do the other people does first.
I would flash the central Europe version instead but I don't know the codename I think it is CE right?

CE1 is the correct generalized firmware wanted. If someone can figure out how to enable fingerprint on the US firmware that would be fantastic. I would love VoLTE and WiFi Calling alongside Fingerprint

I was able to do it, what I did was take certain files from CE1- put them into a new folder along with Newflasher and Partition folder and flash it...…..
I'll try and find the guide for you..

Just make sure you download the same version - firmware , you can't use .16.20 for .235 firmware .. has to be the same

I did! No volte or wifi calling. Also no fingerprint.

From what I seen that guide is incorrect. What you want to do is only install the libraries that enable the sensor. I have flashed the customized US version and I'll extract those libraries from another build that enables FP and make it a flashable zip.

Lol well what they said is true keeping drm keys is no longer important Sony doesn't require us to fake them anymore. Camera and Netflix work perfect in Pie. But unfortunately you'll need root as it modifies the system even if I created a prebuilt modified system the device verifies system on boot and you can only disable that by unlocking the bootloader.

Searching a volunteer to provide OmniROM 9.0 builds

Hello people!
After AOSP the OmniROM is now the second custom rom available on the XZ2, XZ2C and XZ3. (Needed to omnify the device files to build TWRP with it.)
Due of lack of my free time (plus I am providing AOSP and TWRP and don't have enough free space on my online storage), we need someone providing us builds for the XZ2, XZ2C and XZ3.
Of course it need to be a DualSim and a SingleSim build.
At the moment the omni device trees only offer a SingleSim variant, but it does only take 3-4 lines of code to offer a DualSim build option after lunching the device tree's.
You only need to adapt the code of the AOSP project.
PS:
They won't accept code changes at https://gerrit.omnirom.org, because they never actively support them.
Yes. I don't like this opinion, too.
PS0:
I can confirm from too people running OmniROM 9.0 on their XZ2C and XZ3 that it works.
At this moment I am running OmniROM 9.0 on my device as a test if it works.
PS1:
I can confirm, that you can directly integrate TWRP into the OmniROM (and maybe AOSP, I will test it on the next successful build).
Just build the entire ROM with "-userdebug", but the bootimage with "-eng".
Of course you need to replace the standard recovery with TWRP, while building.
This is a good place for an example how to modify the manifest files:
https://github.com/minimal-manifest-twrp/platform_manifest_twrp_omni/tree/twrp-9.0
Of course you should put your changes into the "local_manifest" folder and modify the omni manifest files.
Of course you can build an twrp installer, if you don't want to run an "-eng" bootimage.
But I can't execute "fastboot boot twrp.img" on my XZ2.
You you may need todo the same stuff like we are doing with out stock rom, to install TWRP. (TWRP thread).

Pictures :laugh:

A screenshot I forgott.

does camera work on this rom?

Yes, as you can see in the screenshots.
The same like in Sony AOSP (the base for every custom ROM for our device).
Of course the implementation still needs Bugfixes and feature enhancements.
You can see the open tasks in the bugtracker linked in the AOSP topic in XDA.

If it's only the builds you need I can help but I probably won't be much help adapting the code.

Hi
Don't you need hesters on every build to fix bugs? ?
And why is it not available to have a SDCard in XZ3 AKATSUKI when you put in double/2 Sim-Cards.? ? ?
