[ROM][OFFICIAL][7.1.2] OmniROM 7.1.2 for Elephone Trunk

This is an adaptation of @ottmi's work to OmniROM (64bit). Feature-wise it is not as rich as LineageOS, but it is an open source friendly project.
Credits go to @ottmi (obviously!), @arvinquilao (for the omnirom seed device tree, my starting point), @lolmaxlik_ru (for the 32bit device tree I used when trying 32bit) and @dev_harsh1998 (Bluetooth loop fix).
The kernel is based on CAF kernel, with changes for the Trunk from @ottmi's kernel. Kernel source is here:
https://github.com/omnirom/android_kernel_elephone_msm8916
I think it's usable: essential features seem to work. A minor issue is long press for home button, which does not work as expected.
I managed to upload on xda the build now. Bluetooth has been fixed.
The OmniROM team has accepted trunk as an official device. So, you can download the ROM directly from OmniROM website:
http://dl.omnirom.org/trunk/
If you do so, you will be able to receive ROM updates (weekly).
You are welcome to report any problem!

Changelog
20171021: update kernel to LA.BR.1.2.9-03710-8x16.0. Security fixes (Blueborne and KRACK).
20170820: New GPS blobs from crackling. In my case, it resulted in improved GPS precision. People with overheating problem, please let me know if it improves the issue.
20170730: New Thermal blobs from crackling. New thermal engine configuration. Hopefully, that should prevent overheating.
20170709: New GPU blobs from crackling. Because of a case of reported overheating, several drivers were added in kernel config. Some related SELinux denials were addressed. Something strange was also found in Trunk's DTs: GPIO pins for the tps65132 were wrong, leading to failed driver probe (however, that happens in stock rom too). Correct values for them was added. However, real effectiveness for those changes in preventing overheating is to be proved.
20170618: Fixed reboot to recovery (and automatic updates). Using again Trunk's Camera HAL.
20170603: now compatible with 64bit opengapps, fixed start recording sound at beginning of video recordings, SELinux fixes (by @ottmi), long press of home key now shows recent apps.
20170529: update kernel to LA.BR.1.2.9-02910-8x16.0
20170526: first build

@siljaer
Happy for your new job I'll let you know my impression after installing and testing it. I am currently using the "aicp_peach_n-12.1-NIGHTLY-20170526.zip" rom with great efficiency with up-to-date OTA updates at the same time as the Open Gapps update. It's just 32bit and has been made for "ARK Benefit A3" and not for our Elephone Trunk. It would be interesting, for the many extra functions of this rom, its fluency, the OTA updates, to recover all that has good and transfer it to your rom, even that I saw that something you used as a contribution from "lolmaxlik_ru". In any case thank you for your work and I apologize if I have been able to give you that imput.

Hi siljaer, I would like to test your ROM. I'm using ottmi's ROM but I have some problems: i.e. focus problem on the camera, camera works only for photo and non for videos, sometimes I have random reboots.... So I would like to try: which TWRP should I use? may I use gapps? what are the wipes that I need: can you describe me a sequence? TKS

Sorry for the delay. You can use the same TWRP you're using now. The sequence is exactly the same one described by @ottmi for his rom. And you can use gapps, 64bit. Your feedback will be very appreciated!
As for the wipes, I am afraid that you have to wipe everything except internal sd card For later flashings, you don't have to wipe anything.
First time boot takes several minutes, wait some time.
Thanks!

opengapps 64/32 bit!

Actually there's a problem and you can only flash 32 bit gapps. I have fixed this and I am uploading the build later.

I uploaded the fixed build. Now you can install 64bit opengapps. Since the previous builds were 64bit but they used zygote32 (a mistake) I deleted them.

Ok, my feedback:
I wiped cache, dalvik, data and system, then I flashed the ROM and after I flashed the gapps. After reboot I didn't reach to configure the telephone: it appeared me this message "L'app Configurazione guidata si è interrotta" and there isn't a way to configure the telephone. I'm writing from the PC 'cause the phone is out of service. I see the BT icon opened on the right-top of the screen, I don't know if this can help (you told you had problems with BT....). What do you suggest me to do?
EDIT: I flashed the ROM once again without Gapps, I did it two times but without any success, I also had a couple of random reboots

I had to power off. I want to say that to make my telephone works I had to reinstall otttmi's ROM. In fact, also if i did a backup just after flashing your ROM, it was impossible to reload the backup. I think it's because - wiping all cache, dalvik, data and system - I deleted also parts that could contain parts of the backup. I reached to have some screenshot, tomorrow I'll post here

When did you do a backup? Did you backup your data online? From the screenshot, it looks like the restore application failed.

Hi,
With the last ROM i have a message "Encryption Unsuccessful" after the first boot, i can't do anything.
Thank you

Yes, f2fs is not enabled. I don't know enough about its reliability with CAF kernel.

BTW, if you're installing gapps I would suggest a flavour that does not replace default applications. Otherwise you will lose Snapdragon Camera that in my opinion is much better than google (legacy, as we use an old HAL) camera.

@ siljaer
Tried the ROM using TWRP-3.0.2-20161108-trunk.img, without installing gapps as recommended. Pretty fluid without breaks and quite complete without so many customizations. Problems with Smart Launcher does not activate the home key for shutdown or recovery commands. Weekly update to switch to version 20170611 all OK download but failed restart for flash with recovery. Tried several times but nothing to do. Obviously using either Launcher 3 or OmniSwitch. Installed TWRP manual and all OK. By the way, with the first installation I installed Supersu, which I did not find after updating. This is my first impression.

It is not important which slot is active... The main thing is you have to make the slot active which contains the system file.
After mounting system if y see your system folder empty that's mean this slot is not containing system just set it from a-b or b-a depends on condition.

I only used it for a about an hour (while flashing a zillion ROMs to see what they look and feel like). It was as good as any other (ie, no obvious issue or problem, during the short period that I had it).
However, I must have been very impressed by it, because I made a backup of it (I didn't make a backup of any other, save the stock MIUI).

Dude, the custom ROM is freaking awesome, the best battery life i have seen so far, buttery smooth, and it is the smoothest ROM I have tried for games, I have tried Conquer OS, Arrow OS, Paranoid OS, Evolution X, Havoc, Android 12 beta 4 and 3, Corvus and PixelPlusUI, but AOSPK is the best of all.
Thanks for this great ROM mate.

Forgive my ignorance. Is it necessary or a good idea to unlock (Mi unlock) the device first? I just got my device this morning. First device not running Android One in my case. Appreciate your help.

i have a question about something that happened during flash. The same red colored messaged showed up on the screen saying something similar to "unable to mount cache" or something like that. Should i reflash the rom or is there no problem?
edit: fixed by wiping cache through twrp
another question tho. is there a way to auto accept pin code when unlocking screen? there's nothing in screen lock options. miui had this and i'm finding this to be very annoying

That's actually a convenience feature of Miui, but since i'm using fingerprint so there's no need for auto log in anyway.
Btw does anyone knows a way to access Android/data? My favourite app to manage files is X-plore and new AOSP roms seems to restricted this app from accessing Android/data. Miui don't have this problem.
I already know many apps that can do that like Root Explorer but i kinda wanna stick with X-plore.
Also i'd love it if you could get rid of the restriction in the first place.

Interesting, will follow this project too since it have vanilla. Is possible to have a list of system apps installed in the vanilla version? It have the two tap to wake up issue too? SD card work or i'm forced to format it to be recognized?
I'm on vanilla ArrowOS atm, need really to install MIUI stock before flash it or i can simply flash over ArrowOS and then format data? Just wondering if is mandatory the MIUI and TWRP installation (since MIUI will overwrite TWRP with stock revovery). Thank you mate for your work.

Check permissions for X-plore. I added "files & media" manually. I'm not sure if this is enough, since I already granted access to data/ folder and X-plore can browse without this permission.

Hello,i am experiencing laggy scrolling in the play store and in chrome,and sometimes in the settings menu and in the ui in general,i ve not tweaked anything besides installing magisk,also tried 2 other roms and did not have this problem,battery life is the best on this one,but the scrolling issue is a big annoying,it feels like its not hardware accelerated,any way i can enable smooth scrolling myself or something like that?

Security patch level: December​

Thanks for the work. Pretty awesome ROM. I am having one problem regarding calls. Earpiece does not work. I was pretty excited since I am coming from official MIUI ROM (latest available 12.5.1). I followed the following process.
Unlocked the bootloader
Installed OrangeFox recovery specific to MIUI
Formatted the Data partition
Rebooted the recovery
At this point, I had working recovery
Copied DescendantOS and flashed it
Whenever I get call or I call someone, irrespective of the app (Normal phone call, Duo Audio call, WhatsApp Audio call), the volume comes of Speaker only, even after toggling multiple times. I tried inspecting the log file myself but nothing stands out.

Unfortunately, both the recoveries did not fix it. Rest everything is awesome. And I discovered few more things. The problem persists with other ROMs, Android 11 or 12, encrypted or decrypted. Moreover, earpiece and everything works perfectly fine when I go back to MIUI!! Any idea what might be the problem?

Np- I'm sure it's not your fault. It is just a shame that I can't actually test the ROM with OrangeFox recovery to see what I can do (if any) to support it.

this rom is very good. are we get any update recenty?

it's been over 1.5 months and no updates.... the ROM seems stable and responsive for now but a monthly security update is much needed.

Oh, I'm sorry.. I should've checked the site before commenting.
Huge props to the developer! I'll clean flash tomorrow.

dirty flash from 7.13, all seem fine. nice rom!

I can't find the settings for app lock. Is it available in this version? I'm pretty sure it was available in the 7.X version

That's a shame. I'm using Nova Launcher. I tried to switch to the native launcher, lock the apps and switch back to nova but it had no effect (makes sense, since it's a launcher thing)

Great ROM!
Though I am currently facing two issues, one is that if I use a different launcher like the provided crdroid launcher the home glitches, and also the sensors like accelerometer GPS compass, etc. aren't working. Is anyone else facing these problems and if so any solutions?

1. The launcher may be incompactable or needs module support like quickswitch.
2. This can be occur to serveral reasons.
-did you flash gapps after first boot?. try deleteing /data/misc_de/*/apexdata/com.android.permission/runtime_permissions.xml
or clean flash rom , dont forget flash gapps before first boot.
2nd cause is this may occur if you are coming from a pie based rom
check your sensors using sensorbox app in play.google.com

I was using MIUI stock before this and while in the stock I had all the sensors available in the sensor box app.
And I did flash gapps, but not after first boot but rather after flashing the crdroid Rom itself.
I will reflash the Rom and will update you shortly!

Fixed Update!
I had to revert back to my stock MIUI with the official fastboot Rom to regain sensor functionality, and after flashing crDroid again, it's working fine, and the launcher issue is gone too.

Hi, great ROM, thanks!
Some minor issue: the apps are not quite sorted; regardless of launcher (even default one), the list is sorted until the last ones:
...
SatStat
Telegram
Waze
Contacts
Files
Settings
What are "Contacts", "Files" and "Settings" doing there and how do I get them to their proper places?

Is anyone else facing stability issues? I have had frequent crashes of the system UI forcing a restart.

after upgrading from 8.2 to 8.5, the mobile network signal became very weak

Is Violet still supported?

Thank you so much for continuing supporting this phone with a google-less option!
Thank you

Can someone help me out: I'm trying to wipe my phone after installing this ROM (messed up some things so basically reinstalling).
However if I try to wipe the data in Orange Fox, I get a TON of errors
Here's the last one in an incredibly long list (takes two minutes to scroll through): Error opening: '/data/ssh/OFJF8xpsY7U8SodJ9qcy6B' (Operation not permitted)
There are a ton of files in the sdcard that I can't open or access or do anything with.
I've never encountered this type of problem before, how do I fix it exactly?
Edit: To clarify, I can't wipe the data partition and I don't know why that is.

Is there anyway to disable the auto app suggestion in the dock at the bottom of your screen?
I like having only 4 apps in there and like the gap for the visual break it gives me. But its quite annoying that the last used app is automatically going in there.
Solved: Click on the home screen - settings - misc - last option (I think its called suggestions)
