This stock recovery works perfectly for a5dwg. I used it to install ota package earlier, it may work for you as well.

Can someone do a quick demonstration/ first impressions video on this Rom? I'm thinking about buying the 816 but I really want to check out stock lollipop so I'm hoping to get a preview.

Build as of 1/4/15

Minor/insignificant problems:

-Camera seems slow, Default app does not work well.

-No virgin mobile recognition, sprint recognized instead (This does not conflict with the phones ability to call or sms/mms)

-Battery symbol always appears even if "Text" is chosen in options

Minor Problems

-No ability to Configure Haptic feedback (Vibration on touch) but https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.francesco.duraccio.HapticSwitch works

Major problems

-FM radio not working

-Default texting app does not work with Virgin mobile (App lacks APN settings to change this)

What Has been fixed :)

-No more random reboots (Haven't had one for 4 days, I used to have them every couple hrs)

-Default music app works after 9 seconds now

-control volume while screen is off, this option is available in the buttons feedback.

HTC problems

-Cant charge phone without screen staying on when the phone is off. (anyone know a fix?)

Ok thanks, do you know anything about the HTC battery screen staying on while charging? In order to have my screen off while charging I need to turn on the phone. If the phones off the Dev warning and battery symbol will stay on forever while charging.

I'm on single sim a5ul I think, and have flashed over existing since foxydrew let me get the November zip. Works fine here. I don't use multimedia tools, but just as a phone with browser included.

Photos are sucky, using hdcamerapro improves this but still autofocus is a bit lame. All in all I'm very happy with my 816 lollipop and have no issues using this as a daily ROM. 20150104 build seems fine since 6hrs ago when I flashed. FWIW...
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] xxqxpxx:
also i've installed mount2sd and it can't mount the ex4 memory card . where is the problem and any ideas how to fix it ? (it worked on CM11)
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] FoxyDrew:
Pretty sure that's recovery related.

If you use stock recovery you won't have that issue. You can flash the stock recovery without loosing root or changing your ROM, but if you want to flash any new ROM's you'd need to flash cwm back.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] Skywalker.00:
Ah the sweet taste of Lollipop. Not gonna lie, I was pretty hesitant flashing an Alpha on my shiny new desire, but all is well so far. If you get stuck at boot logo as I did just power down your device and reboot. Seems to do the trick. I'm noticing a little lag, but that could just be my device. I may clean install and allow a few minutes to rest before setup. Cheers to you, developer. Excellent work :)

Edit: about fifteen minutes has passed and the lag has gone. I'd recommend letting your device settle after flash for about fifteen minutes for best results.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] BLEXXAR:
I am having this exact problem as well... I can't even flash a recovery

[MENTION=5604804]macieksoft[/MENTION] FM radio works using spirit FM out of the box. Using it everyday.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] macieksoft:
Could you link the app for others to see as-well>? I cant seem to find it.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] tpr0:
Here:

http://m.hiapphere.com/down/fm.a2d.s2

This is a clone, (for specific lg devices, not illegal copy). See about menu.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] macieksoft:
Thanks but it does not seem to work. All it stays is "stop starting" or "starting station" or "stop stop" then nothing happens. None of the buttons seem to work, are you in the EU?
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] tpr0:
Headphones should be plugged before starting the app, yes I'm in EU.

The start start status dialog is unreliable.

Cool thing it takes music type from RDS and set the equalizer automatically, you can also record (red button).

What build are you running?

DSP manager is disabled here.

Do not use NuPlayer.

Enable development for more control over the ble .

Make sure su ,busybox are installed properly.

Try playing music while running it, always headphones, loudspeaker does not work.

Sent pm to garak months ago, its misconfigured mixer routing, the FM works but routed to the wrong channel thus no sound. This app routes the output to channel stream (3) MUSIC instead of the default (8) FM stream (low level).

You can also try the official spritfm(not free), sound doesn't work too, however recording then playing back works.

Model: P7000 D816w (dual sim).

Try turning on Bluetooth too.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] macieksoft:
I apparently don't have root access. I really don't use to many apps that require SU but I thought I remembered there being a SU tab in the settings and now its not there. Without root I cant have Busybox. The lack of root it probably the problem. Did you have to fix root access? Im running the 1/4/15 Cm12 rom. Also what is NuPlayer and Awesomeplayer? Whats the difference.

Should I be telling CWM to repair root on reboot once I flash another version of Cm12?
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] Skywalker.00:
Have you tried to grant root access to apps and adb in developer options?
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] FoxyDrew:
Reflash SuperSU. Download the latest one while your at it.

Root access is implemented as part of privacy guard. It's there!

Thanks, I must be blind xD, Under developer options, there is a option that says Root Access, I did enable it and now I have root access :) Im not used to that being a setting. Also Grarak, back on page 47 of this thread, tpr0 messaged you about fixing FM radio. Not sure if his fix would work but I want to make sure you didn't miss it. Thanks again, the ROM is working well.

---------- Post added at 10:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:04 PM ----------

@tpr0

Thanks, that FM radio app now works when I have root access and Nuplayer off. Great to be able to have radio back :)
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] Grarak:
I didn't miss it

I don't use FM Radio, so I didn't try SpiritFM
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] macieksoft:
O I though he gave you a suggestion for a patch for your rom. That makes sense know that I read it again.

"Sent pm to garak months ago, its misconfigured mixer routing, the FM works but routed to the wrong channel thus no sound. This app routes the output to channel stream (3) MUSIC instead of the default (8) FM stream (low level)."

FM Radio

Dear All, Kindly note that if you need FM radio, please refer to post 132 and like it.

by the way , if the developer know about this solution and not going to implement it, i would suggest not to @ the developer all the time.

there may be different concerns about implementing an non-standard code or app into CM.

thanks for the solution anyway

Hi Everyone,

This thread has been cleaned up of all the off topic talk/arguing (again since [MENTION=3830277]LenAsh[/MENTION] just did it). This site was created "by developers for developers" and while we value all our members, developers are allowed to run their threads as they see fit (within the rules of course). Since the developer has asked that questions be relegated to Q&A and to not post bugs, I hope that everyone will follow his wishes. Of course, they probably won't since people don't seem to read the OP or previous posts. :rolleyes:

That's a pretty arrogant thing to say. Let me inform everyone of how moderating works here. Someone reports a thread using the little triangle icon and then we clean it up. The VOLUNTEER team of moderators is too small to actively police the millions of threads and members and honestly, we don't want to as active policing is oppressive to the members. So, we let members have their discussions relatively freely until someone files a report and then we look into it and clean what we feel is against the rules or against the wishes of the OP (like off topic/questions in a development thread - some OPs like them, some do not).

I'm subscribing to this thread for a little while to help "encourage" everyone to stay on topic. So, no more arguing - just let it go. I recommend that everyone get in the habit of reporting posts that you feel cross the line instead of posting your displeasure publicly.

TL, DR: Stay on topic and quit arguing.

This was my nice warning. I don't want to start giving infractions. In the words of Bruce Banner: "Don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry."

Is it possible to make the Q&A thread the main default for this forum? This is going to keep happening otherwise. People are not real familiar with the layout and they simply click on this thread and hit reply without hitting the q&a tab. People that know what they are doing know about the separate threads. This will keep certain people from getting frustrated and everyone happy.

How to close nfc service.

It alway running battety drain so fast.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] dstoler:
Not the place for this but quick answer to close NFC go to settings-->Wireless & Networks-->More and uncheck NFC. You may also go to quick panel settings and add NFC so that it may be toggled on/off easily by sliding down the top right of the screen. Hope this helped.

Sorry its early. Realized you said service. I attempted to kill my NFC service in ROM toolbox but unsure if it actually stopped it. My phone has been off of charge for 24 hours with 36% battery left. NFC services isn't even registering in my battery usage chart. Not sure what is going on with yours, sorry.

[Desire 816 Original Android Development] FoxyDrew:
There doesn't need to be, Grarak's nightlies ONLY consist of those changes (unless he says personally that he fixed or added something) so the official CM changelog is completely accurate regardless of a5 being on the list.

Not have battery drain issue?

Or last update this problem is fix?
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] monsieur_beau19:
I had a noticeable drain issue, so I renamed the NFC.apk to .bak and disabled NFC. So far, I'm 10 hours in at 44%

Edit: I haven't used the update for more than 8 hours to notice any improvements in the battery life. However, I'm glad the NFC solved a portion of my problems. Also, you can squeeze a bit more life out of your device by disabling automatic sync. I also use profiles to help my device's battery last longer.
