[E 2015 Original Android Development] :
I've had an interesting issue with my device (March 10 release, but happens on the April 7 one as well) where the time and date would reset itself after a reboot. I have no idea when this issue started happening, since by default my phone gets the correct time on bootup from the celluar network. I only found this out when I turned on my phone in an area without cell service, and found out the date and time was wrong. This issue can be reproduced by rebooting the phone in airplane mode or if automatic timeset is turned off.

The RTC performs as normal and counts up properly from the "Unix epoch" (the phone doesn't let me write to the hwclock, but that's fine since the hwclock increments normally and Android simply records the offset). After digging around in the log, I found references to the directory /data/time containing the files ats_1 and ats_13. Those are binary files (in a Qualcomm closed format) containing the offsets used by QC-time-services to set the system time from the hwclock.

If I connect to celluar service and let the clock autoupdate, ats_13 gets updated and the system time also updates. ats_1 remains unchanged (by default its set at March 10 - possibly the build date?).

When booting, the phone doesn't even look at ats_13 at all and just grabs the offset from ats_1. As a result, the date is set incorrectly to March 10. The fix I did was to connect to celluar service, getting the correct offset saved into ats_13. Then I made a copy of that file and renamed it to ats_1, thus ensuring that the correct offset would be set at bootup. The downside to this fix is that ats_1 is not updated automatically when I connect to celluar service, meaning that there will be a (probably neglegible) time drift over time. If I have time I'll probably write a script to automate this.

Deleting ats_1, with an accurate ats_13 still in the directory, caused the phone to recreate ats_1 on startup set to March 10. Once again, it didn't even acknowledge the existence of ats_13.

I apologize for not having logs (logcat logs don't persist after a reboot, and I didn't save them to file). If there is interest from the developer I can go back to my old nandroid (which has this issue) and produce some logs. Also, I'm curious if anyone else has this problem, or if it's just my phone screwing with me.

No loudspeaker sound

Hi

There is no loudspeaker sound since the update from May 5th. Sound is fine on headphones and Bluetooth.

Also YouTube keeps stuttering.

Anyone else has this?

Thinking of going back to previous release.

Everything else is perfect. Made my phone seem like RAM had doubled. Many thanks for the great work!

Does anybody use Otus any more?

Hello all. First, a little good news: I’m in the process of doing a big kernel security update. The next weekly build will have the patches included, but nothing will show on cmxlog because there are too many patches and I’ll bypass gerrit. I can’t promise I’ve patched everything, but it’s much better than before (I hadn’t updated it since December last year). Maintaining a 3.4 kernel that’s very far from mainling is not easy.

Now, I’m wondering if there’s enough interest for me to bother with LineageOS 15.1 on this device. This thread has practically died, and the other unofficial LOS 15.1 thread has very few people. I’m also concerned about performance on otus and particularly on condor. I’m worried multi-process HALs will push RAM usage over the edge and make these devices too slow. My time is limited, and I have to prioritize my projects.

If you feel Oreo works better than Nougat on these devices, and feel strongly about wanting condor/otus moves to LOS 15.1, please reply to this thread stating your experience. If not, I’m tempted to leave the msm8610 on LOS 14.1 since it’s smooth and stable. It would also save my time to work on other devices. In any case, I’ll continue to provide occasional security updates.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] RonuPonu:
Well I would really like LOS 15.1 in my otus device, particularly for the android go patch, (maybe this can improve the performance of the device)

My experience with LOS 14.1, is so good, I haven't noticed any bugs in the 4 months of use that I have, besides I use the phone as a music player and as a secondary phone. I love this rom, is the most stable that I have tried for this device. The only problem I have is the dimensions of some fonts/icons in certain places, but nothing to worry about it.

Also, the ram management is very good, (better than the original rom) and of course the battery is good too! (10 days on standby, using it for 2 hours daily in music)

Thanks for this amazing rom, and yes, I would love LOS 15.1 in this wonderful device.

[E 2015 Original Android Development] Dev_Mashru:
Hello and welcome back.

First of all thank you very much for updating and keeping otus alive.

I can't exactly tell the reason as to why this thread is almost dead, but according to me it's mostly because of the fact that LOS 14.1 is bugless. I've been using it since almost a year now with the only exception being when I had to test roms for Hamza Badar and prakharluv (I was their private tester). Again as I said, I feel this could be the reason, but can't be exactly sure.

Coming to your doubt on whether people would be interested, I definitely feel they would be (at least I know many who are). Also, only AEX Oreo has over 950+ installs on otus even though many things like camcorder, offline charging, magisk hide etc. DO NOT work. On the other hand, Condor which now has most of the things working including camcorder has 2000+ installs.(Note: These numbers are just for showing number of people interested and not for any other comparison.)

The los 15.1 thread and other Oreo threads are also more almost dead as prakharluv just made 1 build which had bugs like camcorder being broken and a few other including the ones I mentioned above and also because both Hamza Badar and prakharluv left development because of their own reasons.

I did use Oreo and all the builds that are published on XDA and even some more which aren't. I definitely felt the experience was very refreshing and it did definitely feel very smooth. I do understand your concern regarding the performance since the device is very old, but with a few tweaks it was as good as nougat and sometimes even better. Although Hamza Badar didn't optimise the kernel and the build to a large extent as he had very less time and first wanted to give a usable Oreo build, so I think if Oreo gets optimised for otus then it could outperform nougat without any manual tweaking. Other things like boot times were also significantly better as compared to nougat, which I think is obvious. Battery backup was also good. I am not sure if I'm still missing anything. Please do let me know if I did miss something. Also I only used Oreo on otus and can definitely say it can run it without issues. I can't comment about anything on Condor as I don't own it.

For now I'm back to los 14.1 as this is the only device I own and would thus like everything to be operational.

Thank you once again!

Edit: I was also able to use substratum without any performance drop which is not possible in any nougat ROM.

I've allready wondered, why i dont the the Sultan on Gerrit anymore. Is there any other channel where you communicate updates?
[E 2015 Original Android Development] vinyasns:
It would be really great to have LOS 15.1 on otus. I used Aospextended on otus. It performs good. So LOS 15.1 would be great.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] EduardoDracko:
I'm sure, many people are waiting LOS 15.1 for our Otus, the reason that there is little activity in the forum in my opinion is that our device no longer has developers, the only developer is you.

It shows a great difference in performance from Android 7 to Android 8 is faster, without applications like greenify, for this and more reasons I ask you to continue supporting our devices, Thanks :D
[E 2015 Original Android Development] squid2:
Security patches I tend to do in big batches. Putting more than ~10 patches at a time on gerrit is frowned upon, particularly for routing kernel security patches, so I tend to bypass gerrit for them. You can see the changes by checking the LineageOS GitHub, but they won't show up on CMXLog because I bypassed gerrit.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] ChipoTheDoggo:
I'm currently on Oreo and I must say that this device handles it pretty well. I would like to go back to Lineage :)
[E 2015 Original Android Development] Dexter_S:
Yes, a lot of us actually still use this device till now. Actually, LineageOS 14.1 have been stable for a while now & we don't want to bug you with ETA for anything new. But if you can manage the time, we sure would like Oreo on this device.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] Ani0o7:
I always prefer oreo over nougat... Oreo test better, ??? you know what i mean my vote for Oreo
[E 2015 Original Android Development] azul12:
I also keep using my Otus and it would be great to have Oreo for this device. Although I am currently using LineageOS14.1, I have used the unofficial versions of LineageOS 15.1 and except for the known bugs, the rom is smooth and works perfectly for me.

Please do not give up with this device.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] h4ck3r4u:
I just revived my OTUS and getting ready to flash AEX or Lineage (Currently download service is down). Using Moto G (Falcon) with Lineage and runs much more efficiently than the original stock ROM. Would love to get Lineage Oreo for Otus as well. Given that these phones are 3+ yrs old still gives me 1+ day of battery and smooth usage experience..
[E 2015 Original Android Development] nickleby:
Of course we still use our Otus. It'll be great to have LOS 15.1 in our phone. I think the main reason this thread is "dead" is because LOS 14.1 works so well in our device that nobody have to enter here to complain or ask for something. I personally have not tested any Oreo ROM yet, but one of the reasons it's precisesly the lack of a LOS 15.1 build from you.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] Droid King:
First of all thanks for considering our little device ,ofcourse oreo is better on this device almost everything work except camcorder which require footej app ,i have tried all oreo roms till now for this device(aex/crdroid/rr/los) in term pf performance and smoothness oreo is better then nougat and battery performance is almost same ,we will love to have a stable oreo rom from your side thanks a lot for your work.

Ps:- is lineage stopped building of los-14.1 no builds since 2 weeks?
[E 2015 Original Android Development] Dev_Mashru:
Clean flashed the latest nightly with nano gapps and magisk and must say this is one of the best LOS/CM 14.1 build, if not the best. Memory management seems to have improved. It now seems to keep more apps on memory than before and the ram consumed by system also seems to have deceased to only about 330-340MB. Thanks a lot [MENTION=6485916]squid2[/MENTION] for maintaining this 3 year old device.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] Dev_Mashru:
[MENTION=6485916]squid2[/MENTION] just wanted to point out that disabling shutter sound in snap camera does nothing. The sound is always produced irrespective of whether or not the option is enabled or disabled.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] Ferb2:
As others have pointed this thread is dead because it is so smooth.

I have been using otus as my daily driver and is my only device therefore can't contribute to the unofficial LOS 15 much.

Thank you for keeping this device alive

My vote for LOS 15
[E 2015 Original Android Development] agnt007:

[E 2015 Original Android Development] squid2:
Unfortunately I'm retiring from the MSM8610 family

Unfortunately, I don't have enough time to deal with the MSM8610 family (otus and condor). I've been doing a poor job of maintaining this device lately (with my last kernel security update in August last year). It's also getting difficult to maintain the old kernel for security, given how far behind it is compared to mainline. Furthermore, the msm8610 devices are old, slow, and declining in userbase.

I need to focus my efforts on bringing the MSM8916 devices up to speed on kernel security (working on it), and then bring LineageOS 16 (want to work on it). The MSM8610 devices have a much smaller userbase, and I don't have time to deal with an old declining device family.

Thank you all for your testing and bug reporting efforts. I've appreciated the support of the community. You are welcome to continue building, sharing, and discussing unofficial builds in this thread.
[E 2015 Original Android Development] IronTechmonkey:
It was a nice run. LOS for Otus outlasted even the LOS for the more recent Athene device. Thank you!

Thank you for keeping this device as updated as it could. It surely had a long run. Sad to hear it won't get updated but it's totally understandable. Good luck with other devices!
[E 2015 Original Android Development] Droid King:
So this is it, i just wanted to say thank you, the way you did for this device(s) single handedly since past year is just awesome, i wish you best of the luck for the future, it was glad to had a cooperative developer/maintainer like you.

Does an external SD card work for you guys?

I have problems accessing my SD card from 3rd party file explorer (ES File, even using root) and the stock CM File Manager (Using elevated access).

However, CM File Manager detects the SD card and reads the file structure, but is unable to open the files.

Am I the only one who is facing this issue? If not, is there any work-around to this?

I could give logs if someone guides me on how to provide a log in this scenario.

SD card is known issue - http://xdaforums.com/moto-e-2015/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-14-moto-e-3g-t3459697/post68696906

I don't know if official bug reports are being received at this early stage of development but eventually they will so...

You can capture system logs with an app called Catlog https://play.google.com/store/apps/...+play&pcampaignid=APPU_1_7znkV7TRHoiGeuDNs_AG (my choice but there are others) or through an ADB connection to a computer. Beyond those logs there are some files that may contain helpful information in cases when a device crashes and other logs cannot be captured. Logging can be a deep topic and it is worth doing some research about how to capture the pertinent information.

September 23 Release

This build should be signficantly more usable than the last build. The SD card issues should be gone. I've also made SELinux enforcing after fixing a few denials. On the CM end, a lot of development has happened over the past week, so things should be more stable overall and more CM features will be present. With that said, CM14 is still in the early stages of development, so expect some bugs. As usual, the download link is in the first post.

cm-14.0-20160923-UNOFFICIAL-otus.zip with banks_dynamic_gapps-7.x.x-20160921 clean flashed via squid2's TWRP 3.0.2-r1 onto Moto E XT1511 (US retail single SIM) without any SIM inserted.

When flashing the ROM there was an error in TWRP, "E: unknown command [log]", which repeated once but seemed to have no ill effect on the installation or running of the ROM. In fact it runs quite smoothly and there are some (IMO) very nice improvements over Marshmallow/CM13, including the new Quick Tiles and Setting menu.

A few glitches listed here knowing we may not yet need official bug reports but just so people will know:

- Settings menu lacks a visible hamburger/overflow menu button for the slide-out scrollable list of settings. I did not know that existed until I researched new features. Here is a screen grab of it in mid-scroll.

View attachment 3884430

- Settings - Display - When device is rotated - "Stay in landscape view" should say "Stay in portrait view" on this device type (phone as opposed to tablet).

View attachment 3884435

- Settings - Status bar - Battery status style and Battery percentage don't have any apparent effect.

View attachment 3884436

- The previously reported external SD issue. Attempting to access external SD at /storage/6D9F-1444 result in toast "This operation requires elevated permissions. Try changing to Root Access mode" even though Root Access mode is already set. Attempt to access access external SD at /mnt/media_rw/6D9F-1444 does show the contents of the folders and sub-folders but attempt to access items, eg an image or text file, results in toast "An error was detected. The operation was unsuccessful". I can access those locations and items via USB connection from PC.

- I've never been a fan off the "Clear all" button requiring an extra action to access (which incidentally limits use of workarounds that simulate screen input to more easily invoke it) but I suppose that since this is now in stock N CM wont be giving us a Clear All" button that is always visible as was the case in CM12.x where AFAIK CM was adding a feature that was not yet present.

I did not go deep but the ROM is very nice for this early phase, smooth and no significant bugs within the admittedly small scope of these tests. If logs would be helpful at this point I can capture some. Oh... and speaking of capture I was unable to capture any cats in the Android N easter egg.:). Grazie mille.
