[ROM][7.1.2] LineageOS for microG [6/17/18] - Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop

Code:
I am not responsible for anything that happens as a result of you using the ROM. Sure, i'm willing to help with bugs, but if you get fired because the Alarm app crashed, gremlins crawl out of your arse, thermonuclear war starts, or if your progress in Clash of Clans gets reset, i'm not the one to blame.
Features
Code:
microG and F-Droid pre-installed
Anything else LineageOS can do
Is not certified cancer-free in California
Stuff you need to actually use this
- Unlocked Bootloader (duh). Seriously, I will ignore you if you mention that you tried to boot this with Safestrap.
- Update TWRP to Android-7.1 builds located here. Please make sure to use the recovery image which is appropriate for your device (Thor or Apollo)
How do I actually install this?
- Backup existing ROM if you want. Or don't. I don't really care, truth be told.
- Wipe /data partition. You can keep media storage if you want, but I prefer to format it to make it SQUEAKY CLEAN
- Flash the .zip
- Do not flash OpenGapps. Or any Gapps. That defeats the purpose of microG.
- Flash any other crap you want. This'll probably Magisk.
- Reboot.

I didn't make any of this. I just compiled and signed it. People smarter than me, like hashcode and ggow did, made this work on the HDX. Lots of other people made LineageOS and microG. Thanks to you all.

What is there to be confused about? Yes, Google Play Games doesn't work with microG yet. Just don't play with games that mine your data. Problem solved. Or just try to lubricate it with cat piss. I don't care.

I don't think any Nougat ROM for thor or apollo supports LTE. Sadly, no.

Correct - only KitKat based custom ROMs support LTE (data only). FireOS 4.5.x is the best choice for voice and mobile data support.

New zips are out. I just updated microG's GMSCore to one I built myself based on master and a fix PR. Also pulled from latest Lineage 14.1 sources.

Bluetooth issue ? I still use kitkat because i can use bluetoooth. But so boring ..

Likely won't be any different with this ROM as core issue resides at the kernel level. Inconsistent connection behavior leads to erroneous claims based on individual experiences but really not ROM related other than the binary KitKat (Android 4.4.x) or above checkpoint.

Firstly this is an amazing ROM! Well done to you and the team! However, the recent Apollo release is broken. Not sure about the Thor version, i would check but the device I bricked because I was messing around... Anyway it boots successfully but the screen is blank and is still turned on, no boot animation other than the generic grey kindle fire. I can still tap the screen and hear android feedback noises after waiting awhile so it works! Just I cant see anything :laugh: The previous release worked fine, no problems! Maybe you could keep the recent previous releases available for download for backups in case? Thanks again
Edit: Obviously I have the bootloader unlocked etc. Using latest TWRP if that helps at all.

I don't have an apollo, so can you do some debugging for me? ADB into it. It'll ask for authorization on the screen, just guess where the OK button is til it works. Anyways, when you do get adb auth, run this:
Code:
adb shell
logcat > log.txt
exit
adb pull log.txt
, then put the log.txt on pastebin and give me the link

Been trying for about an hour now all i'm getting is feedback noises, is the confirmation dialog being prevented due to the setup process if there is one? Cant seem to get out of it and ADB keeps saying the device is unauthorized. I'll keep trying on the OS and once i get anything i'll update you as soon as i can.

Okay i've got a log file after a few unsuccessful attempts, i'm not sure why the code you gave me did not work but I tried myself using "adb shell adb logcat -d > Lineage14.1.txt" and that seemed to do the trick. (Hopefully this is what you were after).
I tried to upload this to pastebin but it refused so i've uploaded it to an alternative website here: https://paste.ee/p/kL4Ur

Thanks.... this is a weird log. It mentions turning the screen on several times? Can you try fully wiping system and reinstalling?

Yep i'll do that, was it the method that I used to extract the log file that could be the culprit? I should probably mention that you can see the screen when it turns off and on its just a different shade of black indicating that the screen works but it just won't display anything if that makes sense. I'll do a complete wipe and start again to see if its any different this time around.
Edit: Here is the new log: https://paste.ee/p/VK4oS
^^^
I've noticed it is considerably smaller this time around so hopefully this a good sign haha.
It is weird how the previous release worked and this one doesn't, i'd assume it's an application interfering from the latest build but if it works on Thor then it mustn't be right? Maybe something was accidentally changed for the Apollo release somewhere. Sorry if my ramblings aren't useful

Thanks @steamport! What is the security patch level on this build?

I've got the same problem. Loads but no screen and unable to find the "ok" to authorize the device. There must be a better way.
I will revert back to previous version until this is fixed.

[APP : ROOT : TOOL] Optimising App Fixer

"Android is Starting" "Optimizing App x of xxx" With Restarts of the phone 5.1
Last week, when I upgraded from Kitkat to Lollipop, during boot it said,
"Optimising apps, 1 of 132"
took around 20 minutes to complete. Obviously I thought that will be one-time process but it repeated randomly during boot.
Its quite annoying. When it took like 30 minutes, I decided to search for solutions. Seems like well-known issue and lot
of people gave such different answers like:
Clear cache.
Wipe cache partition via bootloader.
Don't reboot while charing.
Re-flash firmware
Don't reboot the device at all!
Downgrade to Kitkat.
Options 1,2,3 didn't work me. Later I realized its completely wrong solution. Not sure, whether 4 will help or not. 5th one is seriously funny solution!
Looked like 6th (going back to Kitkat) is the only option. But I have rooted device and thought about debugging the issue further. Few hours, later here is my solution. It works with Moto-E Lollipop 5.1 . If you have this issue please test and let me know. Thank you!

Version 1.2 release with improvements

This app is not tested with CM12. Please backup critical data before you try. Its tested with Stock Android-5.1/TWRP/SuperSU.

Release v1.3.
- Possible fix for CM12.

I received quite few messages on this one: Just want let you know this message: "Please undo the fix, before you un-install this app" Never uninstall without running 'unfix it' option. thanks

Hey,
I would try this app but can you elaborate as to what is causing this issue in devices? I have HTC 826 Dual Sim and I have the same issue.
Thanks

Sure, I added the link to details on Google Play store page. Forgot to mention it here, Here is the technical details:
http://giis.co.in/wasted_user_time.html

Paid update to unlock features didn't work, fix didn't work
1) I paid for the update to the app and it didn't unlock the full version the app remained the same with the upgrade button no longer doing anything.
2) I applied the fix and the Optimizing loop still runs every time

There are two issues here 1) Optimizing loop still runs.
2) Paid upgrade doesnt work.
Issue 1) is more critical than 2). Whats your device & rooted method? I know it works well with TWRP & Supersu.
ps: Send me your order id I'll make refund. If issue 1 gets resolved, you can upgrade if needed.

Yes, Today Morning got email from Google on " Primarily Child-Directed " policy update. I updated the settings and re-submitted it. Hopefully it will become available in few hours.

Hi glaks!
I have the problem with optimising apps but they are certainly related to Apps2SD. Every time I symlink odex of an app into SD card, it is being optimized at next reboot.
I tried your app but it seems it does not help. I have a feeling that the "openat()" function doesn't follow symlinks or something, so it overrides them with newly optimized files. Is that possible this could be the case? And any ideas for the fix (maybe prevent symlinks from overriding)?
I'm using Magisk systemless root on Android 6.0.1, Sony Xperia M4.
Thanks in advance.

Does quick charge work?

Yes it works, I've beeen using 2 QC3 chargers with no problems at all.

Awesome, works great so far. Here are a few things I noticed :
1- Keyboard didn't show up easily during setup, but eventually it became smooth
2- Following apps did not install (Package Helper error) : Fitbit & Spotify. Spotify was a known issue in stock rom but Fitbit was working fine in stock.
3- Netflix is not available. Previously I had LineageOS 13 and I was able to install Netflix. I know they banned uncertified devices, but I was still able to get it with that rom.
4- Fingerprint is not working 100%. I am able to unlock the device with it but apps are not able to use it properly. For example try Starbucks or any banking app. They will ask if you want to use fingerprint, you say yes and you put your finger, some apps crash, others will say fingerprint recognized, but then they don't actually store/use that fingerprint? Something must have gone wrong... LineageOS 13 also had this issue, but stock rom did not.
I would like to know if it's possible to not have the customizations you did for colors. Blue (pun not intended) hurts my eyes and transparency doesn't look great with some apps open. Also, if you go to device encryption, because you changed colors, some foreground and background colors are now identical and I wasn't able to read the options... I think that screen was the one for if I wanted to ask for password when the device boots.
Also do you have a git for the source tree? I'm learning to build Android and am hoping to see how you are doing things?
Thanks again and keep it up!

I'm doing my mods on the precompiled factory rom. If you go to the Lineage OS thread, Vampirefo has a link to the device and vendor tree he created for his rom. I am considering having two versions of my rom for the Mini. A light theme (stock) and dark theme the one that is out now. Right now the rom is only in testing stage. I enjoy seeing your interest in learning how to do what I am doing, the more developers the better.

This is awesome thanks so much!! I use Windows on a daily basis but I do have a pretty good knowledge about Linux and have set up a build environment in for Android. These links should help me understand what I am missing. I am also happy to continue testing and give you feedback on this ROM as it is currently my daily driver.

New Rom out. It has the stock theme, other than that it is the same.. I haven't decided if I'm going to build two Roms or have the theme be a patch. Maintaining all the different variants of the Rom are getting to be very time and space consuming.

Strange question, but on the original stock rom, I started having issues with the Package Access Helper not working, while installing updates for Paypal, and just straight up trying to install Spotify, even the APK. I did a full factory reset, still did not work. I also installed the custom rom over at BLOX2.com, and the Package Access Helper still would stop working, even after clearing data/cache. I'm just curious if you know if your rom will fix that issue?

Is this without root? I don't know if my rom will fix that, I never used the Paypal app. Your welcome to try and let me know. Also there is LineageOS 13 for the mini which has been built from source.

There is a problem with the latest version of SRGX2. Mobile data doesn't work. I work on it this weekend and keep everyone updated.

Here is the fixed rom.

Good news I was able to get Android File Host to make the Life One X2 an official device. I have made a request for the Mini too. For now all the files will be under the Life One X2 device.
Updated rom: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=673956719939824825
It includes the stock Calendar, Clock and Calculator apps. I changed the DPI to 441. Let me know if anyone has any problems with the Playstore. I know that there has been some requests for the stock Camera and file Manager apps. It's hard to please everybody so I added a patch section which may please some.

I'll keep this as a rolling thread
PS. I wasn't unable to successfully build with Ubuntu
ParrotOS worked much easier and seems more stable as build environment

Wow this is great! thanks!

oh and would u be updating the build with the new lineageos features like true dark mode etc.?

With the next (major) device specific changes and/or android changes I'll make another build which will include the newer LineageOS features
Guess within the next 1 ~ 2 Months you could expect another build from me.
In the meantime I'm taking a crash course on Android kernel development.
Would be nice to squeeze some extra juice out of this device.

I want to keep this ROM a pure LineageOS source no modified frameworks
Try Xposed with NeoPowerMenu module, think it's able to do the trick

@JJRT,
Thank you very much for 'cooking' this ROM! On vacation I discovered that GPS did not work on that old 7.1.2 version. Now again works perfectly fine with this ROM!
I have one small problem though. Android indicates that my SD card is corrupted and want to fix it by 'configuring' it.
1) Does anyone know if it is actually going to try to fix it or will it just reformat it?
Obviously I do not want the latter. I would rather remove it from the phone and repair it in my PC.
2) Can I 'hot swap' the SIM/SD tray or do I really need to turn off the phone? The latter will most likely cause the phone to go into boot loop.
Thanks in advance for any help or info.

Likely partition filesystem issues/corruption.
Preferable to do this with a SDcard-reader
Under Linux I'd suggest using Gparted to check/change filesystem and/or format
Under Windows Paragon Partition Manager™ Would do the job splendidly. Even ext4 / exfat layouts
And yes you could hotswap with phone still on, but I wouldn't recommend doing so out of precaution

I notice the following issues with this ROM:
1) Battery life noticeably less than the 'old' 7.1.2 (of 23-8-17).
2) Notifications arrive 20 to 30 minutes late.
3) In the about it says "Playform: msm8916", which is a 4 core Snapdragon 410. However, the R7f contains MSM8939, which is an 8 core Snapdragon 615. Does this mean only 4 cores are used?

1: I do notice a bit, not dramatically
Concerning battery , did you do a clean install? (format data / cache / system) coming from 14.1 it's advisable to do so
2: Not having those issues (WiFi and 3G) Whatsapp/gmail/youtube notifications are near instant. Have more info?
3: Yeah not sure what the deal is with that. While building the rom it does use the msm8939 sources from LineageOS/TheMuppets
But indeed the info screen of 'Model & Hardware' Does report msm8916. Shall look into that (Guess it's just a left over from a initial script source they've used)
Other diagnostic software does identify it correctly and the performance is on par with 8939

Notifications usually get in when I click the button on the left side to unlock the phone or after a certain time (20-30 minutes). So it seems it does not work instant when the phone is locked.
I also notice that I only get notifications from email, sms and whatsapp. I checked the settings and notifications are enabled for all apps, but I do not get any notifcations from any other apps.

Try getting some stats about what is eating your battery in the battery usage section of the settings or an app like BetterBatteryStats.
With the 14.1 lineageOS release I sometimes have/had that sensor use went nuts for a long period of time, draining battery as a result.

Can it be that this only happens when you are connected to WiFi? If yes, verify the WiFi settings to make sure remains connected or if it's not doing something else undesirable.

Currently no, camera firmware restriction

Just curious, who would be able to update the sources/what needs to done to update the sources?

I solved the problem with the notifications of Whatsapp. The trick is to disable battery optimization for Whatsapp. Of course this is even worse for the battery life. I find it interesting that Android 8 has measures to save battery, but ends up using much more battery than 7.1.2.
This does not help for the apps that do not give any notifications at all. Maybe there is something changed in the way Android 8 handles notifications? I did read some comments from one app maker that they had updated their app to make notifications work on Android 8.1.

All works fine magisk v19.3, dax_axon7_v1.6.1.zip
I return on Andisa rom 7.1.2 freeze and lags horrible

This is really awesome, no more random system freezes like in the first official UA builds. Thanks a lot, it really makes this ancient device useful again ?

@KiD3991 hello, maybe you would like to join Unlegacy team as Tegra 3 developer?

Slightly odd request at this stage probably but is there any chance off an unlegacy lollipop build for grouper? with a 3.4 kernel please?
actually strike that the marshmellow build will be just fine
but does anyone know if shared memory is implemented in a chroot I get -
sysctl -w kernel.shmmax=268435456
returns cannot stat /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax: No such file or directory

New build up, sorry I was really unavailable.
I tried fixing a couple of things, see if it helps, do tell me though, mention me and I will show up.

Interesting for the marshmellow build. Does it have to be UL?
For the bottom one you gotta dig the right directory.

Hmm I've kind of slipped off this little project for a while I'm trying to use it with the newer kali builds chroot (requiring the 3.4 kernels I believe) in the hope of having a device with WiFi monitor mode available but I was running in to that shared memory issue with services such as postgresql etc think is was causing me issues with csploit too but as I say not really looked at it in a few weeks now.

This rom is working great, thanks. Please can anyone help me with how to install browser on this rom, as the USB is not working.

did u tried to activate the debug mode , in dev settings? if that doesn't work .. you have to switch the drivers by yourself, in windows ( devices manager ) from ADB Bootloader to Storage Device .. for your Nexus 7

* 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

* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
*/
This is an unofficial Pie build for the S3 LTE (i9305) based on LineageOS 16.0.
!! Please note that all thanks and credits go to @ChronoMonochrome because he ported the necessary changes to t0lte and got Pie to work for that device, especially the kernel thingis!!
And below is a quote from his release, where he mentioned in his t0lte thread all the involved devs and credited to all the people helped to get pie running for our "old" devices.
This work is heavily based on works of PoisonNinja, Option58 (thanks for device tree, kernel and device patches for LOS 14.1).
A full credit for Pie bringup goes to rINanDO (thanks for device tree, kernel and device patches for LOS 16.0).

nice job dev @rodman01
Well done

Hi, thanks for your great job!
Almost features are fine. I recognized only two stuffs for now.
** 1) phone call **
I set up a VoIP phone app on a phone which was flashed this rom, and called another phone.
The echo back is heard on the VoIP app side, but I could not hear the voice I talked on the receiving phone.
Do you think above phenomenon is related your attention "Call recording, call forwarding and else" or not?
2) FTU was appeared a few times
When I started using this rom, FTU appeared twice or more after I went through FTU.
But as for now I don't see FTU anymore. Thus, this is a trivial issue.
Anyway, I am looking forward to seeing the next updated version!

small update
Hi There,
gapps pico are working, but graphical glitches are occurring in youtube app, youtube browser is working fine, google films is working fine.
Bluetooth sending and receiving is working, device name is still wrong, shows still Galaxy Note 2, which does not matter and can be changed in settings manually.

Fantastic . I will keep an eyes to this.

trying the rom
What file should I download from the root link ?

new build is up: 20200122
Hi There,
made a new version nd its uploaded now.
Based on yesterday evening leo sources and small update in device source.
- Youtube App is now working and Google films too
No other bigger changes.
And since there are no reports yet about serious problems, I changed the status to from Beta testing to bBeta.
Whats App, Instagram, Facebook and other messengers as well as other social media apps needs testing and would be glad, if someone can report back.
GPS most probably won't work. I am getting no satellites and no fix

Im trying to install this custom rom but everytime I got stuck on LineageOS loading logo forever. Anyone have this problem too?

some problems...
on 20200118 ver.
1) following apps sometimes crashed.
LINE, Adobe photoshop express, Amazon Shopping, Proton Mail.
I felt these apps often crash especially when a first invocation and registering an account to every app via network.
After registered my account, crash frequency decreased.
2) following apps couldn't be installed by Google Play Store
LINE, Google Drive, Google Spreadsheet
* For LINE, I installed older apk manually.
I cannot download 20200121 ver. via AFH yet. I'll test further after the rom is updated.

Have you wiped out data, cache, and Dalvik cache before install the rom?
If you didn't yet, try it but ALL OF YOUR DATA WILL BE CLEARED!!
Be aware of what you're doing and do everything at your own risk.

I got the same issues .
I keep it stuck there for almost 40 minutes 2 times but it didn't work.

@rodman01
I intend to flash and test the ROM this weekend. However, I've issues to download it as AFH doesn't find any mirror. Do you have another DL available?
Another question: Anything against not to use your given and linked root solution but to use Magisk? As you provide a separate root solution, I assume Magisk is not incorporated into the ROM.

Depending on from which rom you are coming, it could be better to flash an other custom rom first. You can try RR or cm14 and test whether this is working. And if yes, that follow the steps in op for a new and clean installation. It can also depend on the recovery you are using.

Sorry for the issues with afh. I will try to fix it with uploading the version again.
@Oswald Boelcke no specific reason why I linked the root to leos. Magisk should work as in previous versions. I tested it a couple of weeks ago with a prototype version and it worked. So its worth to try magisc, yes.

Rom new uploaded, afh should find mirror now. Sorry for circumstances:

I could install all your mentioned apps via google play store. It last a bit, the download is not fast, but worked on my end. Amazon is crashing on my side too, the others not, but I haven't tested them much, because I don't have accounts or ids for for example photoshop express or want to create or share my phone number or personal details.
