Hi,

Installed it on my 9205 and did a backup/restore without any problems. Thanks for the (one hour difference now instead of months) correct time in CWM!!!!

More good news

Update

I have more good news. Arne says that once the audio issue is fixed, the camera may start to work too. He is busy atm and has said that he will look into the files tomorrow.

We should all thank him and Grarak for making this a reality. If all goes well, you guys should have a build that you can use as a daily driver in a couple of days. :fingers-crossed:

Hi,

In my last post i quoted wrong so here it goes again:

Installed CWM on my 9205 and did a backup/restore without any problems. Thanks for the (one hour difference now instead of months) correct time in CWM!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] shayneflashindaily:
I wasnt a big fan of miui. Aokp and rootbox was my thing on my old note i717.Anything besides stock tw for me is a awesome thing.Coming from i717 where dev work is booming and things to be flashed all the time to pretty much nothing kinda sucks but I believe things are going to be picking up around here.

2SHAYNEZ
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] kipue:
Yeah, MIUI and also PA, haha! PA on a huge screen like ours would look great.

But MIUI may need CM 10.2 as a base, maybe 11 is too much for it?

And, as a curiosity, will a stable CM open up AOSP based stuff?

First things first, though. A clean CM 11 is such a big step!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] shayneflashindaily:
Oh yeah PA or rootbox would be sick.

2SHAYNEZ
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Silesh.Nair:
I am pulling down the pa sources. I'll try a build just for fun. Nothing to do till i hear from Arne.

I noticed someone is already working on this problem. I think I'll wait for him to see if it's working. If it's not, I'll take a look at the problems ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Indian Devil:
Sorry if it's off topic but once a daily driver is released for 920x, will it be easy to port it to Mega 5.8?

Or its totally different all together.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Grarak:
No and I doubt that it will ever get cm, omni etc.

This device needs some commits which aren't merged to cm sources. And the device is even less popular than the mega 6.3

But if someone wants to try, take a look to my i9152 sources on my github
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Silesh.Nair:
Sound fixed - Daily Driver coming......

Guys,

Sound has been fixed by Arne. I am compiling a build now and i will upload it to my build folder when done. Check back in about a couple of hours.

Camera doesn't work as yet. Hope Arne has the time to look into it. All credits to him for fixing the sound issue. Once you flash the rom, someone please send me a list of issues still remaining so that we can start looking into fixing them. I need my phone today for work.

For Gapps, either use one from here or try this. I use the BanKs Core Gapps and then install the ones i need from market.

Only use the recoveries mentioned in my signature to flash the rom, else you will not be successful. TWRP or CWM, your choice.

[MENTION=4443334]Grarak[/MENTION], I think its time for a new thread for CM11.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] kipue:
That is great news!

Too bad for the camera, but we cannot get everything :)

So many thanks to Grarak and Silesh.Nair for all your efforts :)

And Arne for the final push

Just started using it. Call quality is excellent. Minor graphical glitches. No camera, don't care. Donations coming after my pay is in. Thanks to everyone who made this happen!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Silesh.Nair:
Camera fixed

It will be available in the next build. Thanks to Arne again for pointing out the issue. A couple of libs were missing to that i was able to make out from the logcat. Added those and you have camera working.

If you guys cannot wait for the next build, add the attached libs to the rom zip file under /system/libs folder and flash the rom again.

Its getting better and better.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] imreezm:
Can I just copy the lib file using root explorer?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Silesh.Nair:
Yes. Give appropriate permissions.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] imreezm:
It works!!! Woohoo!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] kipue:
Finally completely free from the shackles of twiz! (too much drama?)

Only small issue I found is the account setup screen has a little graphic error.

Also, I want to ask what people did to restore data? Go backup cannot see the SD card. Anyone tried with titanium?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] imreezm:
I used Titanium. No issues.

Account setup graphic issues/screenshots still there but very minor. Torch doesn't work.

Don't know whether it's just me but I can't sideload any APKs - eg Nova Beta. Also, no deep sleep so far, maybe that's just me as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] kipue:
Okay, thanks.

I'll give Titanium a go then :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] gattaga:
I was able to install the nova beta 4

how to copy this? step by step guide pls? and the pernission as welll. thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Silesh.Nair:
Those who are trying to restore data from a previous rom, read the opening post of the thread below.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2558685

In layman terms, don't do it if you don't want to run into issues.

---------- Post added at 09:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:37 AM ----------

Easiest way for you.

Download libs from attachment. Extract it using winrar/7zip. Open rom zip file, navigate to the /system/lib folder. Add/drag the 2 .so files into the lib folder. close zip. flash from recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] imreezm:
OK after deleting some crap from storage, I have deep sleep. Apk sideload also working but not with es explorer

Does this latest build require the small Gapps to be installed to work with gmail account?

---------- Post added at 11:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:08 AM ----------

easiest would be to add the 2 files in the zip file, and flash it..

if rom is already flashed, add those 2 files to /system/lib

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Thatgrass:
A few pages back someone asked if a list of bugs remaining can be posted so there can be worked on. Could anyone provide this list?

And let me get this straight: we have 4.4 running without any major bugs (like wifi/gps/camera etc) on the I9205?

Another thing, I guess the time has come to create a new thread for the separate ROMS, which are being worked on atm.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Silesh.Nair:
The only issues that i can remember are the following. Rest all work on both I9200 & I9205. Somebody has to confirm about LTE on I9205.

1. Notification led

2. Torch

3. Mounting sdcard( internal / external ) to pc

4. Graphical glitches in some apps.

But very much a daily driver. And its 4.4.1.

some quastions:

why its still cm10.2 and not 11?

can you please upload to another mirror? i see only one file and not the folder..
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Thatgrass:
1. For the notification led, we should look in the services.jar file in framework.

2. I don't have any experience with torch :p

3. The mount problem could be due permission faults: check in /etc/permissions/ and edit the file named platform.xml

4. Some graphical issues have always been in kitkat, but I think there can still be some optimisation for the galaxy mega.

Hopefully you find these point useful and can we find a fix for (all of) them!

Edit: I am busy on some projects till the weekend, but I will see which problems remain and fix them this weekend
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Silesh.Nair:
There is only 1 file and its cm11. Cant you read the file name?

Build is running great for me besides normal bugs already pointed out.Battery life is pretty good. Art doesn't work but sure it will be all figured out with other bugs as well.Gravity box and other xposed modules working well too. I'm guessing "ok Google" is tied in with 4.4 launcher ? Reason I ask is cause I deleted it and use apex. Next build will be even better is a nice thing to know.Thanx for brining life to the Mega6.3.:beer:

Not booting

Hi Silesh,

I tried to flash this build

cm-11-20131209-UNOFFICIAL-meliusltexx

but it just stuck on the Cyanogenmod logo..that's it.. :(

I formatted system, cache, everything..even flashed stock kernel ..nothing works..

I checked all the posts in this forum for instructions...

What am I doing wrong? Please suggest....
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Silesh.Nair:
Why did you flash stock kernel? Procedure is simple.

1. Flash any of the recoveries from my signature using Odin

2. Flash the rom after wiping system/data/cache

3. Reboot

4. Reboot again to recovery and flash gapps

For others,

I am compiling another build with a few changes. I will test it out this time before uploading.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Pariki:
Sure....That would be great....

Let me try with the build cm-11-20131210....and let you know...

the back and menu key lights up evrytime i touch the screen..shouldn't they light up when i use the buttons?

the camera app works randomly...stucks with and without flash..
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] starmaster10:
Okay i went ahead and flash the TWRP recovery with the kitkat support and it went onto my i527m Canadian version of the mega 6.3, i then proceeded to install the CM 11 with the TWRP recovery and not knowing what was going to happen after reboot even though it said it install successfully, and when i rebooted the phone..i said holy crap it worked on this version of the mega, and it has the same little glitches as mentioned by others, and you will see in one of the pics that it has the i9205 model instead of mine, but that can be changed i believe, but overall it looks awesome and this is to confirmed that the TWRP recovery and CM 11 will work on all i527m Canadian versions of the mega..thanks again for this CM 11. :cool:

P.S. I did change the wallpaper in that one pic from what the original one was. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Silesh.Nair:
You should share this with your fellow users having i527. I think there is a thread for that somewhere in the general section.

Regarding changing the phone model to i527m, you can just edit the build.prop settings and change it to whatever u want. This is an awesome app to do it from your phone.

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] kipue:
I was going to post something about the Bluetooth too.

It works, but it makes some strange problems.

For example, it made the Wi-Fi connexion "flicker", and then I had a reboot.

I turned it off, and then had some reboot too.

We have to keep in mind that some issues come from the port, but also that CM11 is still pretty new and that many bugs we get have to be fixed by the CM team too. For example, many devices have the graphic glitches, no matter what.

Am I right?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Silesh.Nair:
It is still in its infancy. CM 11 code is being updated every day. Just as they started working on 4.4.1, 4.4.2 has landed.

So don't expect a fully working ROM anytime soon. Its an ongoing process.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Droidphilev:
Hi,

Please don't understand me wrong. I only wanted to try to report. Is that not necessary anymore? Or better report? Please mind i am more than happy with the way the rom works.

The camera flash issue is there on the SGS4 mini too.

If you focus your shot by touching the screen before clicking a photo, you will not have problems with flash.

Bluetooth is pretty much borked. It only connects. Cannot play audio. Cannot make calls. Results in reboot. Anyone tried file transfer.
