Hey i just flashed this rom after a full wipe, and I'm on the vm variant. My mobile data isnt working, its actually not even saying i have a card in. it says no service on the quick setting tile. is this a current issue with my model?

[Desire 816 Original Android Development] BuggerBug:
Mobile data should be working since you're on the VM variant (a5_chl) that I have too. It might be worth checking out for you to flash the VM APN fix to get data: http://androidforums.com/threads/vi...rgin-mobile-apn-fix-wip-cm-aosp-4-4-x.840298/
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] insanelycool:
I have used the APN fix you linked but it didn't fix 4G on cm12.1, though it worked on cm12.

If you can't get a connection, try going into the mobile network settings and change preferred to 3g. I have found that this will get me connected, but still have trouble with 4G.

Great ROM [MENTION=4443334]Grarak[/MENTION]! Everything seems to work well (cm-12-20150715-NIGHTLY), including calls (on SIM that is 3G checked, not possible for the both at the same time)/sms/mms on both SIMs .

[Desire 816 Original Android Development] exProphecy:
Hmm I've been on that 20150610 12.1 build for a while now with no issues except for having to switch from 3G to 4G to get data back every now and then... until recently. It keep rebooting for no reason then when it reboots, and I unlock the screen, it reboots again.. I did have that issue with when I place the phone in my pocket, it sometimes reboots. Now it's just happening randomly. I tried clearing cache + dalvik-cache then Fix Permissions. When I did that, my internal SD was all messed up. Anyone know what's going on?

*Fixed with a clean wipe of the new July 12.1 build :)

[Desire 816 Original Android Development] jonsama585:
This is for VM USA users only just to clarify.

So I got this from when I was on the s3 and from bugger bugs post #1107 on pg 111 of this forum I believe.

First flash the rom and gapps then I boot do initial set up reboot to recovery flash the apn fix http://androidforums.com/threads/vi...rgin-mobile-apn-fix-wip-cm-aosp-4-4-x.840298/ then boot back to the rom (you still have the roaming icon and an "!" next to it) then I downloaded the app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.appando.app.changeApn from what this youtube video suggested https://youtu.be/8hqVCd3J1Aw and it worked for me. It's still not perfect but it makes me happy because I can still do what I need to do to get done what I need to get done. And if all else fails just change the radio to 3g as opposed to lte preferred. you will see roaming but still have data. I know all I am doing is reposting everybody elses info. But now its kinda in one spot. Hopefully this helps out us VM USA users that may have not read all the other posts like I have. BTW [MENTION=4443334]Grarak[/MENTION] thanks again for being an awesome developer and continuing to provide is with CM 12.1. And thank you bugger bug for the suggestion with the APN Changer app.

I'm using cm-12.1-20150723-UNOFFICIAL-a5 for 4-5 days and everything is very smooth and working well. Got few FC of telephony, but I guess it is probably related to the applied new theme.

[Desire 816 Original Android Development] exProphecy:
Hey so I ran into this issue again on the newest CM12.1 build.. So my steps in doing a fresh install on TWRP 2.8.7.0 is go to advanced wipe then check dalvik-cache, cache, data, internal storage, and system then wipe them 3 times. Do you suggest I run repair file system after I wipe them? I feel like I tried that and it got an error or something. Am I only able to do repair file system after the installation of a ROM?

Also, I started getting the error "Unknown error with Google Play services" whenever I open a Google app. I tried that fix where you clear the cache and data of Google Play and Google Play services then sign out of my Google account under Accounts then reboot but to no avail.. Any ideas?
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] thirteen_percent:
You cannot repair a partition unless something is installed one it. Also, if you're doing a clean install, again I should say dontnjust wipe. Format the entire data partition with TWRP (you'll know you're doing this when it prompts you with a keyboard to type "yes"). That's how I ultimately got rid of the issues you described.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] exProphecy:
Ohhhhhh I thought wiping and formatting would be doing the same thing. OOPS! haha.. anyways, would you say it would be better to format first then wipe the partitions or wipe first then format? (unless it doesn't matter really XD)
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] thirteen_percent:
If you do the full format, wiping wouldn't help/hurt.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] AndyYan:
Just a (maybe useless) hint: speaking of the "can't hang up/receive call/SMS maifunction" problem, this is very similar to what I've encountered on US variants of Samsung Galaxy S3/S4, and the solution end up being replacing RIL-related libraries (usually libril.so) with the corresponding versions for your SIM - GSM RIL libs when you use GSM, and CDMA ones when using CDMA. From the replies I can read that Virgin users are using it well and EU aren't, so similar steps might have to be done for EU users.

I don't have any idea of where to get the libs though (if GSM had worked on CM12, that might be an origin), which ones to replace (maybe not just libril.so), I don't even know if this would work at all - I'm not a Desire 816 user, just passing by to check whether the device has many ROMs. But anyways, I hope this can inspire a solution for you guys.

P.S. CM is stubborn in adding full world phone support, for whatever f--king reasons. Have to replace the lib whenever I switch SIMs. Screw it.

[Desire 816 Original Android Development] insanelycool:
I can second that. The camera is the one weak link in both versions of CM. If I try to use skype it will lock up my phone after a few minutes. Seems like its falling behind and it just gets worse and worse until the whole thing stops working.

I have a few more bugs to report. First off, FM radio does not work. Second, in the multitasking menu, close all is obscured by the on screen keys. Third, I get crashes ever 10 mins or so, but that is to be expected from an alpha ROM. Thanks for all your hard work!

Edit: Netflix will not load. YouTube is fine though. Also Google play is having issues installing any app, this may just be a gapps issue

Edit 2: The newest build (the one ending in 16) is FAR more stable. No crashs in the past 8 hours. More stable than cm 11 for me.

[Desire 816 Original Android Development] Alanman13:
If you back up your rom, flash a new one, then restore your backup, you'll be right back where you started. No changes.

If you only restore /data, you will most likely break some system apps that rely on files in /data.

But if your goal is to save some of your apps, I'd recommend titanium backup to back up apps individually, then flash new rom, then reinstall tb and restore your apps.

Hi All

Don't know if anyone is maintaining this ROM now but still sharing with you all the latest build 09-07.

URL: http://www.letschat.pro/download/

Note:

1. I am not a XDA developer, and not maintaining this ROM.

2. I have checked out and complied CM 12.1 and Device tree built by Grarak and v-superuser @ https://github.com/desire816-dev

3. I have done no changes to any codes :/

4. It is working on my device a5dwg.

5. DId dirty flash but wiped "system" and flashed gapps over it.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] thoctor:
Which gapps to use?

I have official nightly CM12 currently but want to try 12.1 out. Have heard about delta gapps and slim gapps. When your have a newer version of CM do you just find a gapps version that says it's 5.0x or 5.1 x to correspond to the rom? Currently mine was linked by Cyanogen to my nightly build so I didn't have to figure this part out.

[Desire 816 Original Android Development] thoctor:
Gravity box might be your problem

Not sure it's the cause of your battery issues but I have this same setup with Xposed frameworks and gravity box, according to the developer, is not supposed to be used in non AOSP Roms like CM. I never downloaded it so it may just be compatibility issues but it never hurts to uninstall it and see if your battery issues change. My battery and better in 5.1 so maybe that's it.
