[Fairphone 1] chrmhoffmann:
This is Android 4.4.4 kitkat compiled from scratch from some other device sources that you find on the web. Adapted to fairphone FP1(U).

It includes various security fixes on top of 4.4.4 - but most likely not all. Major security hole detectors are green now (VTS, Bluebox, Zimperium).

NOTE: PHONES CAN BE LIFE SAVERS. DON'T RELY ON THIS PHONE AS YOUR SOLE COMMUNICATION MEANS. I HAVE NOT TESTED EMERGENCY CALLS, NOR CAN I GUARANTEE THAT THIS PHONE WILL WORK IF YOU ARE IN DANGER. CARRY ANOTHER PHONE WITH YOU. DON'T GO FOR A 3 DAY HIKE ONLY WITH THIS PHONE!

Without much ado...

To install...

- Flash the recovery from here: https://basketbuild.com/filedl/devs?dev=chrmhoffmann&dl=chrmhoffmann/fp1-kk-stock/recovery.img

- Boot into recovery and flash the rom, eg. with adb sideload. Download here: https://basketbuild.com/filedl/devs...mhoffmann/fp1-kk-stock/fp1-kk444-CH-0.9.7.zip MD5sum: 9140c93ff8f2b8327fdd330d2448c16f

- I guess you also want to flash some KK gapps that can be found somewhere (e.g http://opengapps.org/?api=4.4&variant=nano)

- You might also lose your IMEI like me? Don't PANIC! The IMEI's are noted on your FP. Remove the battery and write down the numbers. Then once you have booted the phone, follow this simple tutorial to fix this: https://www.facebook.com/fXDAdev/posts/448292925303711

Bugs:

- IMEI loss when flashing from stock FP1. No clue why this happens. Are we somehow overriding some NVRAM?

- CTS is complaining about some issues. https://christianhoffmann.info/2015.11.29_16.17.03/testResult.xml

- As this is a merge of 4.4.4 into the MTK stuff, watch out for more bugs than the previous release. Not merged: the new 4.4.4 dialer screen (we stick with 4.4.2 dialer as the modifications are too heavy), chromium does not support wml anymore (who cares?).

- You most likely need to wipe to install this when coming from the previous KK version to 4.4.4. Email app e.g. seems to crash without.

- Playstore version of Google Authenticator does not work (see https://github.com/google/google-authenticator-android/pull/4). Use the OSS version https://github.com/google/google-authenticator-android/releases - this is not specific to FP1 but seems an MTK issue.

- A dirty update (without wipe) from 0.8 on an encrypted device seems to reboot once during the "Android is upgrading" dialog

- Sometimes the lower part of the homescreen launcher seems to lose transparency.

Changelog fp1-kk444-CH-0.3:

- More CVE fixes (e.g CVE-2015-3845). VTS and Bluebox Trustable are almost green. For some reasons they still think "Stagefright" is not fixed. Zimperium nevertheless shows all stagefright OK. Edit: found out why. It's false positive as MTK reports errors in MPEG4Extractor differently than stock.

Changelog fp1-kk444-CH-0.2:

- Netflix issue fixed with new blob from E3

- Some CTS issues fixed

- More security fixes CVE-2014-7911

Changelog fp1-kk444-CH-0.1:

- Upgraded to 4.4.4_r2.0.1: Yay! That was an insane amount of work. The following "shortcuts" were taken:

-- Chromium sources taken from AOSP - MTK added wml but it was too much work to merge this back in

-- Email app sources taken from aosp - MTK customized something there esp. exchange sync, is that really giving someone problems?

-- Dialer app taken from MTK without 4.4.4 updates - that stuff is too heavily customized also for dual sim, and 4.4.4 revamped the UI, so this was just too much work for now.

- Latest security fixes up to November 2015. Security fixes also for wpa_supplicant_8 (thanks to Michael Bestas for collecting them for CM)

- Kernel sec fixes

- FP1 power profile xml (does this actually change anything)

As usual some credits:

- [MENTION=5480061]Santhosh M[/MENTION] : for some advice on the modem/baseband

- [MENTION=2438866]keesj[/MENTION] and fairphone for ___providing___ me a fairphone that replaced my own broken one (never figured out why it doesn't boot anymore)

- [MENTION=4193338]CyanogenMod[/MENTION] and koush for superuser stuff that I kanged into the MTK stock

- [MENTION=4193338]CyanogenMod[/MENTION] for the stagefright fixes

Let me know if

- it works also on older FP1 (without U).

- you have problems with your IMEI, too

- if you find other major issues

- if you think I am missing some security updates

- i had some issues getting the "phone" part of it work. Somehow it started working - not sure what it was. If you don't get the phone (call, etc.) to work, check your IMEIs first.
