The light has cm12
[General Questions and Answers] josh2020glacier:
Yes I know not a daily I really meant not having a stable asop anything better then the stock
[General Questions and Answers] DroidJP:
I would have to agree that the stock is less flexible when it comes to customizing. For an example. When i used to own the light i was able to create a shortcut about just about any app including shortcut within the settings like Application. With the Avant i can't create a shortcut of the Application. All you get instead is check boxes for quick access and its limited to how many you can check. That is one thing i find that is a step backwards. And as for the menu key. It is now the most recent key. Took me awhile to get used to that when i was more used to holding the home key to bring up the task manager. Never the menu key. Samsung is a hit or miss sometimes lol.
[General Questions and Answers] DerpyTails:
I agree with the Menu Key being the most recent Key, that still boggles me to this day

Does aokp or any of the roms have proximity sensor and nfc working yet??
[General Questions and Answers] rck01:
No. Neither works ATM. :(

RCK
[General Questions and Answers] Blu8:
Proximity sensor has been the most mysterious bug for the avant do far. CM11 had spotty nfc for me, others say it doesn't work at all for them. Only CM12.1 has reliable nfc
[General Questions and Answers] dustdu2017:
I just benchmarked my stock avant against a stock LG Leon and the Leon got better numbers. It loads games faster too. Is the Avant still a better choice?
[General Questions and Answers] Blu8:
I don't know about you but I can't live with 800mb of RAM and less than 4gb of storage
[General Questions and Answers] dustdu2017:
True
[General Questions and Answers] rck01:
From what I can read on the T-Mobile web site:

Pros: Android 5.0, maybe faster thanks to less bloated ROM?

Cons: 8GB storage (vs. 16GB), 1GB RAM (vs. 1.5GB), support for 32GB SD cards (vs. 64GB).

I'd go with the Avant...

RCK
[General Questions and Answers] Blu8:
Also quad core processor.... With an 1850 MaH battery, that screams three hours standby time to me
[General Questions and Answers] D-FUSE:
Proximity sensor to me is a miss feature not a bug.
[General Questions and Answers] Djoec1983:
The phone does have a proximity sensor correct?
[General Questions and Answers] Cobra11Murderer:
I doubt it has it
[General Questions and Answers] redsfan27:
What turns the screen off when you go on a call then?
[General Questions and Answers] D-FUSE:
It does have it but not working in cm or aokp
[General Questions and Answers] Blu8:
The power button?? Lol prox hasn't worked on any custom rom for the avant. It obviously did on stock but the stock firmware doesn't have things like that missing
[General Questions and Answers] redsfan27:
Lol I forgot. A long time ago I started setting the power button to end the call (in accessibility options) so now I forget that you can just use it to turn the screen off.
[General Questions and Answers] Djoec1983:
The problem I'm facing with using the power button to shut the screen off during the call is the lockscreen lag issue, especially when I'm in call it takes a long time for my screen to wake, does anyone else experience this?
[General Questions and Answers] flowwolf168:

Hi, guys, why I can't use kodi Media Center on AOKP ROM, any idea, thanks
[General Questions and Answers] Official_Rainbow_Dash:
Yes it happens all the time. Takes about 2 seconds or so. Also, Hi guys, I'm back, if the older members before , before we even had root hah.
[General Questions and Answers] Tyler Tigner:
I'm sorta new here

Hello.

I've been looking for a ROM for this phone for a very long time now and I finally found this thread

(thank goodness)

I need some links to get the greatest and latest ROM for the

Galaxy Avant G386T T-Mobile

Thank you
[General Questions and Answers] Blu8:
....as I finish typing that out again lol
[General Questions and Answers] Tyler Tigner:
Lollipop

Are there any lollipop roms and what kind of bugs are there?
[General Questions and Answers] redsfan27:
I reloaded the page like 4 times before I posted it just to make sure you hadn't posted it yet but I beat you to it ☺
[General Questions and Answers] Blu8:
Lol not by much but yes. And there is a WIP cm12.1 with no WiFi or camera
[General Questions and Answers] redsfan27:
Cm 12.1 is here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=33415

Bugs I can think of off the top of my head: wifi, camera, bt(?). Both cms and aokp have prox. Sensor bug
[General Questions and Answers] Blu8:
Yep, Bluetooth works. Those three are it, no WiFi, camera, or proximity sensor. The last one admittedly not a big deal at all
[General Questions and Answers] malnash52@gmail.com:
Aznrice said he fixed the camera
[General Questions and Answers] Tyler Tigner:
:)

So I guess the AOKP rom is a go for me
[General Questions and Answers] Blu8:
Yeah but until he fixes WiFi he's not gonna put out any other fixes so for all intents and purposes camera still doesn't work. And AOKP is definitely a solid rom
[General Questions and Answers] Tyler Tigner:
So the camera, wifi, data, and calling all works right?
[General Questions and Answers] Blu8:
Yes everything works, with the exception of the proximity sensor but I doubt that's a deal breaker.
[General Questions and Answers] Tyler Tigner:
Thanks

thank you so much lol
[General Questions and Answers] Blu8:
Don't thank me thank D-FUSE for building them lol
[General Questions and Answers] Tyler Tigner:
No video recording
[General Questions and Answers] Blu8:
Download Google camera and set the resolution to 720p
[General Questions and Answers] Tyler Tigner:
thanks

Ok thanks
[General Questions and Answers] HeaT420:
Video recording works on stock camera in AOKP. you just have to remove the line in build.prop associated with AAC encoding and change the settings to 720p in video recorder. Only problem I found is some apps not detecting touchscreen such as Kodi.
[General Questions and Answers] DerpyTails:
So I tried AOKP and while it IS nice looking, a couple of apps that I like have problems:

* M1 Android (Arcade Music Emulator): Fails to show the list of games I have set up

* MX Player: FLV Files that can normally play in Hardware mode are forced to Software mode and cannot be changed back

So I reverted back to my backup ;)
[General Questions and Answers] D-FUSE:
I don't know why you guys are reporting anything nothing is going to get fixed with AOKP I discontinued and took down all the links. Too many bugs I didn't want to deal with. Then people were crying and sharing without my permission so gave the go ahead for someone to mirror the links and now bugs are being reported again. SHM.......
[General Questions and Answers] DerpyTails:
I wasn't complaining, I was only telling you what happened, also good luck on future development of CM :)
[General Questions and Answers] Blu8:
Let's not impose on D-FUSE now, where did you get that he's developing for this phone at all anymore?? Let's take it back a couple of steps
[General Questions and Answers] D-FUSE:
Luck to me? I ain't developing on cm or this phone I moved on and well from looks of it. It looks like everyone else has too.
[General Questions and Answers] HeaT420:
Sorry, I didn't mean to state bugs to be fixed, was just letting others know the only issue I had incase they wanted to flash it

EDIT: We might even get lucky and have someone that does want to work on our phone and will know what problems exist.
[General Questions and Answers] flowwolf168:
So i'm on the AOKP ROM, is the random buzzing/distorted noises while using V4A a known issue or is it just on my end? is there any workaround?
[General Questions and Answers] Blu8:
Nevermind I'm stupid
[General Questions and Answers] dustdu2017:
Can anyone tell me if the screen res on the Avant is that bad? Im buying one soon but have read bad reviews regarding its TFT display. I can't imagine its any worse then the res on my ZTE z667 Zinger lol
[General Questions and Answers] D-FUSE:
960 x 540
[General Questions and Answers] redsfan27:
Lol 75% of my budget phones in the past few years have had 960×540 screens. No, its not an ips screen but IMHO its not bad at all.

Edit: that was actually one of the reasons I was skeptical about buying the avant
[General Questions and Answers] ninjasinabag:
Check your build.prop file, there may be doubles on certain lines.

V4A only makes a small click when sampling the audio for certain effects.
[General Questions and Answers] D-FUSE:
You don't to remove any line just change it to 720 and why would you even want to use Kodi on this phone? It's not a TV stick or a tablet
[General Questions and Answers] malnash52@gmail.com:
You actually do have to remove the line in build.prop because the aznrice's latest kernel broke the recording and the only way to get it working was to remove the line in the build.prop
[General Questions and Answers] D-FUSE:
That isn't a ROM issues nor does that my ROM come with his kernel. They should say they are running that kernel
[General Questions and Answers] D-FUSE:
I thought that dude Dfuse wasn't developing for this phone anymore
[General Questions and Answers] psycho_deth6:

[General Questions and Answers] D-FUSE:

[General Questions and Answers] josh2020glacier:

[General Questions and Answers] psycho_deth6:

[General Questions and Answers] redsfan27:
I don't think he has shared it yet. It might not be done.

Edit: I should have refreshed the page first ?
[General Questions and Answers] Blu8:
Give it time bro, dude has a life as well lol like he said two posts up it needs kernel work
[General Questions and Answers] redsfan27:
Quick question. If I were to flash the ank3 stock firmware on my Avant through odin will it replace twrp with the stock recovery? Just thought I'd ask before attempting this since I want to be able to go back to my backup of aod7. Btw I'm doing this to mess around with a few things in the service mode, which was mostly disabled with the latest update. Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] Blu8:
Yes it replaces TWRP, from memory it flashed system, recovery, boot and cache when you flash firmware with odin. You could always flash TWRP with odin and use it to flash the SuperSU zip to root. Don't flash TWRP then cf auto root, cf root puts binaries and the SuperSU apk where they belong but also flashes stock recovery.
[General Questions and Answers] redsfan27:
Is there any way we could enable Carrier Aggregation? It would greatly increase speeds for my area. I'm not sure if the hardware supports it or not but it doesn't seem like it would be that difficult if it did.

Edit: Jk I looked on qualcomms website and the snapdragon 400 doesn't support it. Nothing to see here.

Was there ever a band12 cm11 fix? I feel like there was but my Google skills fail me. Just switched to CM11 from AOKP and I like it a lot more :thumbup:

Hi everyone. Have 2 new avants for me and my girlfriend. What's the most reliable, closest to 100% functionality, rom for this phone? Thanks for the suggestions.
[General Questions and Answers] Official_Rainbow_Dash:
not sure yet, im trying CM12 for thing thing and it keeps crashing on initial boot. :(
[General Questions and Answers] Blu8:
Every build boot loops, try 6/19
[General Questions and Answers] Official_Rainbow_Dash:
yeah just did that, it's a near usable build! got gapps and everything working except the obvious.

Props to the devs!!!
[General Questions and Answers] Blu8:
Nice, just know that's not getting fixed any further, staying like that.
[General Questions and Answers] Starflare5:
A question....

Ok, why are people like you insisting on treating this phone like the redheaded step child?

It's a great phone that deserves a fully working custom Android Lollipop ROM with many features comparable or even better than most high end phones.

I see cyanogenmod and many others treating this phone very poorly, and all because of why? The Grand with only half the onboard memory has inched it's way into replacing it?

I don't mean to rag on you or anything Blu8, but, I'm just tired of a really great phone being pummeled and treated like it's below second rate when it's anything but.
[General Questions and Answers] D-FUSE:
1 st off!!!! This phone isn't great. This phone sucks! 2nd off this is a redheaded step child of a s4. Oh and 3rd off back off my boy .
[General Questions and Answers] Starflare5:
Then explain why when the Last of he Galaxy Exhibits was released (the model this phone replaced), the instant it was rooted, there was a flood of ROMS for it, and then, something you dropped out from, and non-Samsung phone, the ZTE Zmax was finally rooted, same thing, a ton of ROMs..... Also, there are still ROMs being developed for the Galaxy S3, so, don't tell me this phone sucks when there are far worse and older phones that are still being developed for even now. Hell, even the LG L9 and L90 are still being developed for.

And, besides, I'm not even trying to get into it with you and nor have I ever been or ever will be your boy.

Also, besides, I asked that question of Blu8, not you, and you are one of the ones still developing for this phone..... Why even hate on something that you're working on?

That's like me hating on Windows 10 because it doesn't have the features of Windows 8, yet, I'm still working on it to see what can be done to save the atrocity that it is.
[General Questions and Answers] D-FUSE:
1st off back off my boy I was talking about blu8 dumb a$$.

Oh and since you're such an a$$ no one will see any development from me.

But I'll enjoy all the roms myself.

So I guess you're just left rom less.
[General Questions and Answers] Reaper351c:
Thanks Starflare5 I was looking forward to trying out the rom dfuse was working on but since you had to be an idiot now that will never happen smooth move dumba$$
[General Questions and Answers] Starflare5:
Whoa dude, hold up. If you were talking about Blu8, why did you quote and reply to me? seriously?

It's rude to talk on someone else's behalf.

And please stop calling me your boy. I'm 39, college educated, and I have more insurance.

Now, I'm not going to talk to you anymore because I need sleep because part of my job is making sure those point of sale systems that help you stuff your face stay working.

I'm out of this thread until some actual development happens.
[General Questions and Answers] D-FUSE:
Wow dude you're really stupid I was saying back off. Leave him alone. Blu and I are boys. I said back off my boy. I wasn't calling you a boy and you're whining and crying about no development but I put development on hold because life happened to me and my family. I don't need to explain myself. Really I'm still laughing about your college education and no one cares how old you are. Lmao!!!! I was feeling down but man you made my night.
[General Questions and Answers] Starflare5:
I hate to sound like the grammar police, but, please, learn to use commas....

I thought you were calling me a derogatory comment.

Secondly, your boy, Blu8 can speak for himself. It's called integrity.

Also, why hate on something you are developing for?

You should love and put love into that development unless you're full of brooding hatred and and discust like Spike from Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Taptalk does not allow for edit. There's your corrections.

[General Questions and Answers] D-FUSE:
Why because you attack a friend of mine and I stuck up for him or because you trying to flame me backfired on you or because my girlfriend and I were in a very bad car accident and I put development on hold. I thought you were 39 not 12. Get over it omg!

P.S. I hope you stay out this thread. No one here wants to hear about you whining about no development and BTW blu8 has done a lot for this community and you have done nothing but cry. [emoji22]
[General Questions and Answers] Starflare5:
I just thought your friend should answer for himself since he seems determined to bury this phone.

Also, this is a question directed at you, before I leave, why are you developing from a ROM originally meant for Nexus tablets made by a completely different team?

Wouldn't it be more logical to start from Google Android 5.1.1 and Samsung base code and go from there instead of trying to build from someone else's work?

May I direct the forum's attention to look up staybroken ROM and images in a Google search.

Goodnight.

[General Questions and Answers] Masterchief87:
[MENTION=6485524]Blu8[/MENTION] wasn't treating the avant like a redheaded stepchild or trying to bury it. He said that none of the issues with cm12.1 are getting fixed because that is the truth. [MENTION=2607869]aznrice2k4[/MENTION] (the guy who was building cm12.1) gave up on this phone. By the way, the Avant does suck.
