ViPER4Android halfway works, but still the best IMO

Go to Dev Options in settings and turn off NuPlayer (experimental). Then download an app from Google play called "SELinuxModeChanger" and change your phone to "Permissive." Keep the app at startup so you don't have to keep switching it. Then install ViPER's app and driver. Haven't went back since. You have to uninstall AudioFX after every nightly flash, though (just get rid of it). Only app I've noticed ViPER has no effect so far is YouTube.

[Desire 816 Original Android Development] shantanu223:
Did it work by itself on SIM1 ( I mean does it connects automatically after reboot ) or you have to toggle Airplane mode ?

Recovery or Rom problem

I'm not sure if it's my recovery or rom that's giving me crap. I downloaded the latest build from here: http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=a5 and when I wipe everything (Cache, Dalvik, Data etc.) and flash the zip file, I get an error, zip file is corrupted. I've tried this at least 5 times. Heck, I was able to flash the gapps but not this rom :( Anyway, I figured maybe I need to go back to cwm recovery, so I did. Unfortunately, I get an error as well. But this time, it says (bad) as the end of the error. So I'm not exactly sure what's going on. Does this mean I need to check for the latest recovery (I tried Rom Manager, but that app sucks)? Or is there something wrong with the MD5Sum because It always says skip MD5Sum every time I flash this Rom. Any suggestions will be well appreciated.

*Edit: Will be moving this post over to Q & A momentarily
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] sahil.bhardwaj:
Try to open the .zip file in explorer of phone or pc, maybe the file is corrupted.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] monsieur_beau19:
Yeah, I opened the zip file and it turns out to be a bad zip file. The problem is that this happens every time I download the Rom. Should I just try to Download the Rom directly from my phone?
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] sahil.bhardwaj:
This happens if file downloading interrupts in middle, better download using chrome, either phone or pc.

The audio is really lower than stock. Anyway to fix this?
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] Azphreal:
That's just because this doesn't have HTC's BoomSound. No way to fix it.

Don't want to seem whiny, but any plans to further support a5_ul? Data, vibration?
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] FoxyDrew:
Data and vibration don't work on the a5_ul?
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] Azphreal:
Not on mine, at least. Probably works on the actual international firmware.

From what I can tell fairly quickly, Optus (Australian carrier) did something to the phone. In the bootloader it appears as a5ul, but the CyanogenMod installer reads it as an htc_a5dug. I have to edit the installer script each time I update.

Vibration-wise, I hear it's that the kernel doesn't support a5ul, but that might again be just my identity-confused phone.

Call does not work in Wifi

Need some help with my long-running issue. When I'm connected to my office WiFi - voice calls do not work. I get a momentary notification for a call and then it goes away and i see a missed call. If I disconnect WiFi - everything works.

I have attached both logs - when it works without wifi and when it does not work with wifi.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Since many users are talking about bugs and running into already reported ( yet buried in the thread) issues, won't it be nice if someone can create a list of issues and bugs? Then it will be easy for everyone to see.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] uushh2u:
variant 816x asia single sim. So far through set up it will work fine. after it sits maybe 5 mins touchscreen starts to react slower. Texting will become hectic having to hit each character 3-4 times util it reacts once. When i go into the dev pointer location tool if i hold my finger in one spot it will show bouncing movements, zigzag like patterns. 2 fingers show even worse. I had to roll back to the stock rom. I flashed full wipe using cwm 6.0.5.1 and also tried TWRP no joy. (used cm-nightly 12-20150126 for A5. also have tried in the past the newest ones added with the same issue. )
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] shantanu223:
In overall it seems none of the custom roms can be said a daily driver. At least the basic functionality does not work properly. :(
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] insanelycool:
I am on the Virgin Mobile USA Desire 816 and:

I for one have had no issues running the nightlies as my daily driver for the the past week. There were a few hiccups here and there that are getting better with each nightly (sometimes an app will crash, but then work fine after... I see this happen less with each nightly). The only real issue I've had was the camera app, I replaced it with the google camera app and that has helped, but the video would stutter. The latest update has almost completely smoothed out the video and I can now shoot at 1080p with minimal stutter (almost none at all).

I've not had a single reboot, all apps seem to be working fine in my testing (though I don't get a lot of calls they do seem to work both on and off WIFI). I think this is the most stable ROM I have been on considering how much work is still being done on it. Bravo to anyone and everyone working on it! Love it!

There is actually a tab at the top of each thread that says "Bug Reports"... it seems like it is rarely used, but it would make a lot of sense to use that. I would encourage you to make sure to include as much information about the phone you are using and version of the ROM.

Also, I think the official place to report bugs is: https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/secure/Dashboard.jspa This is only for stable release builds, and cm12 is not yet at that stage yet.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] Stransky:
Hi

I would refute that. I have an 816 single Sim version unlocked and sim unlocked with CM12 nightly 2602 installed and it is my daily driver. I have been using the CM nightlies since I got the phone 3weeks ago and have had no problems with it.

I have original cwr that you get root with and it keeps aborting do I need a newer recovery?? I'm on vm desire
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] insanelycool:
if you mean cwm recovery it should be working fine. Does it just not enter recovery after you've selected it from the bootloader? I would try a fresh download (maybe your original download was corrupt), and reflash it. You could also try TWRP instead. I also have the VM desire, and both of them work. If its not working I would say there is a good chance your phone is faulty, as my first one was. The replacement I got is working perfect, after returning the faulty one.

If you are still on stock you can also try booting the img directly from the computer without overwriting (flashing) the recovery on the phone. Just put in 'Fastboot boot customrecovery.img' , where "customrecovery.img" is the name of the file you have on your computer.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] jwhood:
So I went on my PC and and fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and flashed newest twrp it flashed fine,only issue is the its saying no sim but I switched to 3g and it works but still says no sim but I get data and messaging but stock SMS doesn't work
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] insanelycool:
The no sim message is normal, I've had that for every build. Sometimes it will say no service at first, but seems to settle in and say Virgin Mobile for me eventually. I get 4g fine as well.

You might try using a different messaging app. I don't use the stock one.

or try this APN fix for VM http://androidforums.com/threads/mod-universal-lte-virgin-mobile-apn-fix-wip-cm-aosp-4-4-x.840298/
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] YmerejO42:
Hey InsanelyCool, I'm the same ymerejo42 as on the other site. I love your kernel for the Samsung Galaxy Victory.

Anyway, that fix says it's for Android 4.4.x, would it work for 5.0? Also, I'm running the current nightly on my 816 (and my Nexus 7), and neither of them has a working GPS. Any idea what it might be?
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] FoxyDrew:
The fix will work on 5.0, and if you have the Nexus 7 2013 (I do too) GPS just happens to be a bug on that device, and on our Desire 816. Not a bug with CM12 in general.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] YmerejO42:
That's really odd, my Nexus' GPS (and yes, it's the 2013 Wifi version) works fine on stock and OmniROM, Cyanogenmod has been the first rom I've tried it doesn't work on.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] FoxyDrew:
No it's defininetly a CM12 bug. But GPS works fine on other devices running CM12. I meant the Nexus 7, specifically on CM12, has that bug. So it is a CM12 bug, but only on certain devices.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] YmerejO42:
Well, I installed the fix, and then it told me that I didn't have a SIM card inserted and that I was digital roaming. I decided to swap the SIM card, but even though it's advertised as a dual SIM, the lower slot is blocked off. Not sure what that was about. So I just wiped and reinstalled CM12.

So, since there's no CM 11 for the 816, I guess I just have no GPS on it. I might put Omni back on my tablet.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] FoxyDrew:
It's supposed to say no sim, and digital roaming. Those are known bugs and are just visual, data will still work fine.

And the Virgin mobile variant isn't advertised as Dual SIM as far as I beleive, because it's not. And that would get HTC in a heap of legal trouble.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] YmerejO42:
Well, crap. Now you tell me. lol

I could be wrong about the dual SIM, it's been over a month since I bought the phone.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] insanelycool:
This is odd, because I was having issues with gps only in the navigation part of google maps app, but then it went away for seemingly no reason at all and has been working fine ever since. I remember testing on stock first which worked fine, then I tested it on one of the cm12 builds from early last week. On the way to work that day it didn't work, and then on the way home it was working. The only thing I had done at all was connect to the wifi at work. I try to test out everything each time I install the new nightly and the app has been working fine each time.

But you've made me realize that the gps isn't working, but the location on high accuracy mode seems to work fine with or without wifi on.

[Desire 816 Original Android Development] insanelycool:
I've been toying with the gps a little and managed to get some gps satellites to show up in CM12, but cannot yet get an efficient lock. It is better than nothing though. I'm going to see if there is any way I can improve the fix further. The real interesting part is that I first tested it by flashing to stock and running "gps test" app and also "gps status test and fix" app. Both obtained a lock within 10 seconds and viewed 21 satellites, and connected to 10-12 of them. After flashing back to my backup of CM12 (first wiping everything in TWRP), the apps now can see satellites in view but do not "connect to them". This allowed the device only setting to function even though I could not get a "lock" officially with the gps test app. I'm going to dig into this further after getting some rest.

Maybe someone with more experience than I can do this quicker and find a fix.

Edit: managed to get a fix in CM12... restored back to stock and opened "gps status test and fix" app, and allowed it to "get xtra data" then left it running for about 5 minutes, making sure the screen stayed on. Then I launched the "gps test" app and let it get a lock and again left it running (screen on) for about 5 minutes. I updated my profile and PRL. Then wiped everything, afterwards restoring CM12 backup. At this point I ran the "gps status test and fix" app once again and clicked on "get xtra data". Then I was able to get a lock. Might be something to it. Going to test further, but anyone with gps problems should give it a try.

Make sure you do not click on Reset Gps in the "gps status test and fix" app as this will erase the satellites stored and you will have to start over. This is probably a temp fix, so I will continue to test it tomorrow during the day.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] ajones23:
What nightly has messages working. 03012015 won't work,the arrow is greyed out. This is pretty much a stable Rom like it.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] macieksoft:
Its an APN issue, you cant change the APN setting in the default messaging app. Use Textra from the app store instead.

Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.textra&hl=en
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] ajones23:
But isn't that what the APN fix is for. I mean it flashes a line or command that would change it. Maybe I'm wrong. Thanks.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] macieksoft:
The apn fix is for Data (4g/LTE and 3g) The app its self isn't affected by the fix. Before the APN fix you could still call and receive txt messages. Sending them dosnt work tough. I have looked for a fix but cant find any, Textra is still good, and im not missing the default app that much.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] insanelycool:
I prefer using Textra also, so I never noticed anything :) It's one of the first things I install because it actually works with all features including group messaging (some other apps don't do group messaging well at all).

Hi guys, Virgin Mobile user here. I've searched through this thread to see if there was a solution to the Vibration issue, but I have not found any answers. My issue is that I am able to have vibration features work just fine on a very old build (cm-12-20141208-UNOFFICIAL) but if I flash any of the newer Official NIGHTLY builds, all the vibrations features do not seem to work.

I have tried flashing several different kinds of NIGHTLY versions (Jan-March 2015) and they all replicate the non-existant vibration issue.

[Desire 816 Original Android Development] monsieur_beau19:
Yes, but it's not worth it. Only a few modules work. The really good modules require an update which we can't do as of now, so I'd suggest you wait for a beta or final release.

1. Please read before installing or posting

Dualsim variants (a5dwg, a5dug) are supported, but not fully functional. It's not possible to make calls if you selected 2G as preferred network mode. This is a known issue so please do not post any report about that! I would suggest you to only use one sim card with the dualsim variants.

2. About 4 gigabytes

The default messing app doesn't work anyway. You can receive messages, you just can't push the send button. I use handouts because of it's integration with gvoice and sms, but most, if not all third party SMS apps work without the APN fix.

There's not fix for the stock messaging app. Any other third party app works though. If you want the stock messaging experience, download Google messenger. I haven't experienced a music error, but you might want to wipe the cache, or just use Google play music.
