Galaxy S8 LineageOS 15.1 - General Topics

NOTE: This is an exact copy of my post in the lineageOS section for the galaxy S8. The reason I am re-posting it here is because I want to get the word out to people who may not be taking note of that particular thread as some may consider it a dead thread. I hope this is not considered spamming, the only copy of this post is here and in the lineageos section for the S8, I will not be posting it anywhere else. Thank you.
I have been using XDA for years but have mainly been using the roms that other dev's have built and also looking for answers to any questions I had to potential problems throughout the years. I have never felt the need to create an account as I felt I had nothing to offer, everything that I could do was already being done by someone else and I don't post questions because 99% of the time a quick google of the error code or problem will turn up an answer either on here or somewhere else. Anyway, I have been using the s8 for a while and have been running renovate ICE 11.1 stable which is an absolutely brilliant ROM, huge hat tipping to the dev's for that, it's such a shame it's heading the way it is. I have been looking into running lineageOS but as you all probably know, the unoffical ports are not good and have been left in alpha stage for a long time which is sad, especially as people donated money to have that done. So, I am going to port it myself, only because I want to run it myself, however, I figured that I may as well release it for everyone instead of being selfish and keeping it just for myself. I will probably never use this XDA account again after I post the ROM so this is just a shout out to let people know that they should watch my account if they are after lineage 15.1 for the s8 G950F.
Thanks for reading.

[STICKY WIKI] - All Available ROMs, Root, Recovery, Kernels - Read before posting!

CLICK HERE TO GO TO THE WIKI
Its starting to get a little cluttered in these forums, and I'm seeing more and more threads asking what ROMs/Kernels are available, so I figured we should start a Sticky Wiki. It has worked well in other forums, but everyone needs to get on board and update it. Please list all notable contributions in the wiki. This is a much more convenient alternative to sticky posts!
Those of you who cook ROMs and kernels, please remember to update this when you release new versions. It'll make life easier for everyone here.

I'm not a mod, and I didn't keep up to date on the drama surrounding that ROM. But I feel it's safe to say that the same rules apply to the wiki as they do to the forums, so if for whatever reason a mod didn't allow something on the forums it wouldn't be allowed on the wiki either.
From what I understand, Baked Snack is allowed here, but only for the publicly released versions. No advertising for future versions or when it requires donations to get access.
actually..
to quote pulsar_g2:
This thread has been closed as the rom in question does not contain a link to GPL sources.
If either the OP or developer can provide them, the thread can be reopened.
Until that point thread closed.

i think thats more or less the gist, in regards to baked, since he wants to charge money for advanced copies(betas as it were) and others seem to be posting on his behalf.(bringin it up every now and again.)

That it does, if only Herver would let us fans know when he's going to release the next version, he is currently MIA lol.

No CM6? Anyone heard anything from Cyanogen about Epic 4g support for CM6?
Noobnl is working on it, its running but its not yet for the masses. Thread.
If we could get boot animations that the community makes linked there as well that would be nice. I would link some myself, but I have no idea where to find any. Because I'm currently running the extreme kernel with epic experience and emotionless beast and my bootup sequence is just straight up dumb.
This wiki is extremely helpful! Thanks!!!
This wiki alone has saved my phone over 5 times.. Thanks for it.

[MOD EDIT: PLEASE READ AGAIN] A Question about MIUI?

Why can't MIUI Roms be posted posted in here?
I think its because MIUI doesnt want it posted any where but the MIUI site. had the same problem at the G2x threads.. but someone managed to get a thread and link up and keep it up, some how..lol
They can be posted, just not the one from Trip as he's banned from here
Yes, as the poster above me has stated, this ROM is not allowed on XDA, I have to close the threads referring to MIUI, he has expressly asked that it not be posted on XDA.
I am not allowed to let it on unless he has given permission, if memberskeeep posting this it is violating our rules meaning that I have to give out a lot of infractions. If he gives permission, I will happily re-open these thread if this is OK with the Admins.
If anyone has any questions, send me a PM or let me know in here
Thanks Guys

Wait.. So if I want to download MIUI for my phone, where do I find it? The MIUI site doesn't list Sensation in the devices list, and the links here have been removed..
Google it - it's not hard if you know the site Paul O'Brien runs...
And MIUI have said they are probably going to do an official version for the Sensation soon

I wait for this. I try some of ver but have some serious bug on my sensation!
He's kicked out some real kick ass ROMs in a short period of time. MIUI is running VERY well. Totally worth it.
Something tells me that Trip has no problems with his ROM being posted on XDA (with all credits to him, of course), but that's only me, I won't talk instead of him. Too bad because his ROM is faster than any other around here, even it is still beta. Come on people, let's make a deal here and enjoy our Sensations

AFAIK Trip had no problems with the thread here at XDA and just didn't want mirrors posted, seeing as the thread was just a link to his original thread and seeing as he okay'd it, I don't know why the thread was closed down anyway.
Can you give me the link for the miui rom by Paul O'Brien please?

I'm pretty sure he does mind. Quote from his current thread on Modaco:
Dont misunderstand me, i dont have a problem with sharing it, i do have a problem with sharing it to a place that kills everything that have something to do with me. That is not how a community should be. Even users who support me there get bashed, they are going to wrong way there.. They always had a great community where you could learn alot and everyone was excepted in there own ways.
There where alot of users helping each other, now the mods control the place on there personal likings. And people just take whatever they need to get more attention then another.
I want to help as much as i can, but giving everything for free to a community that fights against me.. no sorry thats a no go.

This isn't going to go anywhere so I will basically just chime in since this has greatly affected me personally. Trip basically is unhappy how users such as myself get trashed for even mentioning his ROM, on XDA. I basically was trying to help a user yesterday, and I mentioned I was using Trips ROM, but was going to offer my help with an installation of an app he had an issue with. I posted a link to that app, and instead of the moderators here seeing I was NOT posting any links to the ROM, but rather to an app, I was trashed by several users saying that I should know better, and then was forced to delete references. I never posted any direct link to Modaco nor his ROM. The link was to an app, I simply googled. Suffice it to say, after posting more than 3100 threads here and helping out literally with 100's of users over the last two years with my Nexus one and now Sensation, I probably at least in the near term will basically help over at Modaco and move on for a while from here. The attitudes of many here totally sour the situation. Especially on a phone that has lack support for so long and has finally gotten to the point of enjoyment with development, past the same old same old copies of Sense Roms we see here from day one. All the developers here brag they have the fastest, slickest, ad nauseum same old Sense ROMs that for the most part are just clones of each other. Sure, I might be offending a lot of the hard working OPs here and I will say I'm sorry I had to make such a statement, since I know a lot of hard work goes into any of this. But now we finally are seeing CM7, and MIUI opening up on the Sensations doorstep and because of the piss and moaning going on here with Trip over issues from the past, we end up with being either near banned, threatened with points actions, told we must delete references that have zero to do with his ROM, but they are afraid that some will just "think" that there are links. The hysteria after yesterday really left a sour taste in my mouth and many other fellow long time XDAers I speak with all the time, that have all basically PMed me stating they could NOT believe how I basically was trashed on a thread here.
Anyways, just wanted to speak my peace. This is NOT on a development thread so hopefully I won't have threats coming at me for speaking my peace. The actions here only hurt a community as a whole.

You can read there " the thread by t0ny0 in the xda development area is the useful one" ... Does anyone need more proof that he in fact didnt mind the idea of his rom being here?
And even with that - thread was closed. Not cool.
We have the proof that he approves, and still closed...

CM7/AOSP/ICS Discussion Thread.

Hey there everyone.
I'm from the Vibrant section, and I have some questions for you Galaxy S 4G users, please do know I searched around, but I thought it'd be best to have all the information anyone had on this particular topic all in one thread, so if anyone feels this is useless, feel free to delete it, I'm just trying to gain some knowledge. My girlfriend has a GS4G, and although the devs have done a great job modding Samsung's ROMs.. they don't compare to AOSP ROMs in my opinion.
Now, for the questions.
1. Why is it we can't get a working kernel to boot for the GS4G? (Someone please do explain in detail.)
2. How far has someone gone/gotten? (I know krylon handed the work to someone, but I don't think they've reported back?)
And please, no stupid answers. This is pure discussion. If a kernel dev is what we need, I could try to find one that's willing to work with me, but we'd need testers and such.
From what I heard and read around, you guys don't have any devs thats capable of doing that.

It's ok. I've responded to a few of these threads. It's surprising how many people don't click 'search' and search for 'cm7' or 'cyanogenmod'. I also don't expect people to read both rootz and xda. So if you read my op on the kernel thread, I have a "Plans" section (on both forums!).

Then why didn't you group all the information that is already available in the 50 other threads about CM7 into this one?

First of all, this has never been my primary device. I have never owned this device. I used to own the Samsung Vibrant, now I own a Nexus S. My girlfriend owned a Galaxy S 4G, and was using her phone to try to bring something new to you guys. (First ICS theme for this device ring a bell?) It's not my job to group 50 other threads about CM7 into this one. That's not what a community is. I am in no way a recognized developer, I know my stuff, but I have a long way to go. But it's people like you that make devs want to leave and stop posting their stuff. You swear people have time to do everything. And indeed that was my intention, but I wasn't going to pull useless information from other threads that members have posted, that are often inaccurate. This thread was mostly meant for devs, that could actually help out, and working together.
In other news, I finally have some time to mess around with stuff, might look into more themes or something, but I lack a device to work on, so I guess if some people would like to help (testing, etc.) I'd be glad to push things out from time to time.

Official CM?

Now that CM has released an official build for hammerhead why do they not have a thread here? I didn't want to post in any roms threads in case they said there is a specific reason or not. Have they just not gotten around to it? I much prefer xda threads to google+ to watch a rom develop.

In my experience, they have always had a thread in the past, saw no reason for that to change. I don't like everyone doing their own thing, its impossible to find Roms and dev nowadays. What happened to a good old fashioned changelog? Everyone is too good to write the features of their rom or a changelog. Idk I am a bit frustrated with nexus 5 development right now. The gs3 always had nice devs willing to post everything
Edit: yes I fully understand they owe me nothing as I do not pay, but I do support and donate to any dev who works hard and I have committed my own time to a free kernel that I spent hundreds of hours on, so please read this as me being whiny

So someone from the CM team should create a thread for each device they maintain, update it daily for you along with actually working on the builds? Why can't you read the change logs, gerrit, or github yourself and let the devs do what they do best? They shouldn't be wasting time updating threads here when they are supporting so many devices. They would need a secretary just to maintain the threads.

I understand it's a lot of work, but I maintained a kernel across 4 devices, it wasn't easy but it wasn't the end of the world either

they have www.cyanogenmod.org and their own forums, why would they post here?

I created a CM 11 Discussion and Q&A thread for the Nexus 5 below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2562110
It's not a development thread, it is simple a place for people to go that want to discuss CM, chat, ask questions etc. Since I didn't see a forum for the Nexus 5 on CyanogenMod's official website, I decided to create one here for the time being. :good:

So someone from the CM team should create a thread for each device they maintain, update it daily for you along with actually working on the builds? Why can't you read the change logs, gerrit, or github yourself and let the devs do what they do best? They shouldn't be wasting time updating threads here when they are supporting so many devices. They would need a secretary just to maintain the threads.

Usually, the maintainer for the device does start an official thread in the relevant forum but it would seem this time no one has done so

Yes I know but perhaps there isn't an active maintainer for the nexus 5 considering the incorporation of cyanogen now....

I find it interesting that they would have time to build for it (and I am sure several of their devs have the nexus 5) and test for it yet not make a forum. Even without a maintainer present the community would be able to solve a lot of issues

Jenkins builds them automatically.

I've ported Sailfish OS 3.3.0.16 to Motorola Moto G7

I don't have enough posts to make a thread in ROMS section so, to make myself useful while I'm at it, feel free to ask me anything. When I have the permissions, I will get a thread there.
what's working?

I'm sorry it has been so long, I've really forgotten about this post.
As far as I'm concerned, everything works, besides vibration motor being kinda weak for whatever reason
This has got to be the most baffling thread I have ever read. Did you actually get it working or are you just making believe? Are you going to share a build with us ever?

I'd be right happy to, but being a newbie to XDA prevents me from doing so. I've posted the ROM multiple times in moto g7 telegram channel, if you want to check it out, go there. Until I get 10 replies, no luck for xda
Well, anyway, here's the latest message. And here're sources. When I get the chance, I'll do 4.0 with android 10 base, but for now, this is all I can offer.
I do apologize for my skepticism! I had no way of knowing about your Telegram until now. Thanks for sharing!
Now that I have enough replies, I've made a thread in ROMs, this marks this one as closed
Are you doing oS 4? \(^o^)/

The thread in ROM's section already has Koli ported, and I might consider making a few more builds in the near future

Awesome. Gonna check it tonight. Been wanting to try sailfish for a while, and now I have a reason to power up the old G7!
