Hello :)

I would like to say thanks for your awesome work, developing this software! My phone is still on Lollipop and I think, there is no chance for official MM release for my country.

I installed your latest build and played around a bit, however on my 6039y it seems to behave unstable. The first problem I found was with signal reception. I'm sitting in a place with pretty good LTE and 3G coverage. While holding the phone in hand and playing with it, I noticed, that once every a couple of minutes, the signal indicator drops to zero for about 15-20 seconds and then catches back the network. I had similar issue on this phone running CM12.1, this was the reason I went back to original ROM.

Another issue, maybe connected with the first one: Today, I had an incoming call. After about a minute of talk, there was suddenly silence in the earphone. I was talking in a quiet room, so I can hear the GSM "buzz" in the speaker, but not the actual phone talk. After a couple of seconds, I got SIM card error, and after a while, phone rebooted itself. After that, I made a couple of phone calls. Most of them were OK, but during one of the call the problem was back – I dialed a number, the screen indicates that the call is in progress, but I could not hear anything but quiet buzz indicating, that the transmission was indeed happening. The reboot never appeared again.

Was somebody else experiencing the same problem?

Moreover, I found another issues during playing with the ROM, but I managed to fix them by myself. I'll leave my solutions there – maybe somebody will find that useful...

1) I tried to install Greenify. While installing (before install finished) the phone reboots and enters a bootloop. I could not recover from it. The fix was to boot into TWRP and delete /data/app/com.oasisfeng.greenify/base.apk, then boot the system.

2) Titanium Backup was not able to restore apps. It hanged on waiting screen forever. The solution was to replace the builtin root with SuperSU, flashed from TWRP. After that, it worked, it was also able to restore some stock apps, like Notes.

3) I haven't found any way to disable the camera sounds in camera app. So I went to /system/media/audio/ui and revoked read permissions for camera*.ogg and video*.ogg.

Since Greenify is not working, could you please recommend some other way to kill apps like Facebook? I don't want to receive any notifications from it, so I'm completely fine if it is not working in the background, eating battery and data.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] ukiz:
The bootloop issue seems to be caused by a new version of Android development tools, which brought a compatibility problem with some ROMs, see https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/64434571 so we may expect more apps with the issue when updated.

Is there a chance to have this fixed on the rom side?

Idol 3 6039J

Hello, this is an amazing rom, I'm just having a problem, my device is idol 3 6039J Everything works perfectly, just a few applications like Slack and Facebook when I try to open these apps the cell phone hangs and returns to the boot screen of the lineage.

Any solution planned?
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] adk1234:
I think, I have found the possible cause of that:

The baseband version, reported by factory 5.0.2 ROM is:

M8916AAAAANLYD2020518.1

The version, reported by Lineage 13:

M8939AAAAANLYD2020518.1

Looks, like the baseband is for a wrong chip (MSM8939 from 5.5 version instead of MSM8916).

[MENTION=7821916]alecbl[/MENTION]: Is that change possible? Is the ROM touching baseband at all? When reverting back to stock using TWRP, the version also reverts. Maybe I can replace some vendor files to these from 5.0.2? If so, which ones?

Edit: It seems, that I'm not the only one with the signal drop issues on Lineage. I cannot post external links, but LineageOS JIRA is full of similar issues, reported on various phone models - simply search for signal drops, unstable signal etc.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Huskied:
I'mma correct ya a bit on that. msm8916 is on the 5.5, Not and never the msm8939.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] adk1234:
So maybe the sites with specs are wrong. I'm looking e.g. at gsmarena, where it states, that 4.7 version = MSM8916 Snapdragon 410, 5.5 version = MSM8939 Snapdragon 615.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Huskied:
Msms might be either switched, Or they put the wrong one for 5.5. We've gotten the msm8916 to boot on the 5.5..
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] djojo13:
The same for me, after crash append, i'm unable to open application settings (to clear cache, to uninstall, ...). And some apps refuse to open 99% of the time (yalp, titanium backup).

I use latest version (september one), with no google apps.

Any idea ?

EDIT : thanking [MENTION=6963665]ukiz[/MENTION], it's a known problem ...

https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/64434571

Workaround is to boot on recovery, delete /data/app/${NewInstalledApp}, clean cache, and reboot normally
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] alecbl:
Hi guys. I'm aware of this severe issue. yesterday I tried to figure it out but failed... miserably. Its affecting all sorts of other devices, I think it might be lineageOS.

I built up to date rom yesterday, already with wpasupplicant patches for https://www.krackattacks.com and will upload it later.

I can also reproduce the modem resetting issue. And the official audio phones issue. I will try to fix those. But the apps bootlooping issue, for now, im just gonna wait a bit more see if LineageOS gets fixed or in any of the other devices someone sheds some light.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] alecbl:
Here's october security updates + wpasupplicant for recent WPA2 weakness:

[Onetouch Idol 3 General] kodl07:
Hi there, I am new here and just flashed my phone to this ROM. It is awesome. I just found that my headphones do not work anymore and after some searching I found your post. Can you please share some link as where I can find more info on this issue, please? I use headphones on everyday basis and it is very anoying for me not having this functionality ...

Thank you very much!
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] alecbl:
Heasphones do work, sound wise. But the ones that come with the phone, when plugged, make it as if the touchscreen was being pressed. I use some apple ones and they dont have that issue.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] kodl07:
Thanks for your replay. When I flashed I just lost the headphones functionality. I plug them in and I can hear little "crack" in the headphones so I guess it is not a hardware issue. Other headphones do not work either. The phone just does not seem to detect it. I tried AudioFX and FMRadio. Then I played some music. It starts playing and when I plug in the headphones, speakers go quiet but no sound in the headphones. I realy think it could be some bug. My phone is 6039Y. I do not realy know how to debug this but if anybody has some idea how to help, I would appreciate it.

Thanks.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] k500zm:
Alec - Thanks for the new build
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] r3d4:
Great, thank you for the WPA fix:good: You should be paid by Alcatel for doing their job:D : But manufacturers dont care, they only want to sell and forget...
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] danieldeak70:
Myy phone is randomly restarted today and started to reboot from boot animation.... and after it finished a can try to use but at that moment instantly reboot AGAIN...

I think that is not bootloop or it was??? because every time it srated it begins from the boot animation (lineage os animation) and it finished with lock screen and start again..... this is the 2nd time this happened.. what is this??? what to do??
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] ukiz:
Yes, it is a bootloop. Most likely caused by one of the recently updated apps, as reported many times in this thread. The app needs to be removed or replaced by an older version. Unfortunately there is no fix for this annoying issue.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] alecbl:
Ok so there's light on the boot loop issue. Recent android studio is making apps that expose a bug in lineageOS. That's why the list of apps crashing the device is growing, and reverting to older roms doesn't work.

You can find out more about this here:

[Onetouch Idol 3 General] alecbl:
It's with great joy that I built a rom with above issue fixed:

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=125476

Many thanks to comment #22 on above issue tracker. Detailed breakdown of the issue, making it trivial to fix.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] DarkZell666:
Fix confirmed, I had the problem with Facebook and Telegram, and both apps now install without any problems. Alecbl, you're the best ! :D :good:

Since X-plore File Manager was also mentionned elsewhere I also tried installing the latest version, and it worked !

THANK YOU !

Edit : 10$ USD donated
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] thearc77:
Oh man, you make us the best for us. Ty so much!!!
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Phantom410:
Thank you so much alec for keeping on with the work!

On a minor note, power button and volume down stopped working for screenshots, had to add the option on the power menu, this happened on the stayboogy rom aswell and it's now happening on yours.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] tomhoogata:
Hi,

Thx for your work, it's terrific !

I've just one issue : i just can't access to my phone through usb.

I connect the cable, on my phone, i can choose what i want : charge, MTP PTP, MIDI but when i select MTP, nothing shows up in windows 7 at all (I use the original cable).

I've missed something or not ? I hope it's not a replicated question...
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Phantom410:
Had the same issue last night, had to manually select mtp drivers on device manager on windows cos for whatever reason it wasn't recognising it.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] thearc77:
Confirmed. Fixed in same way
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] tomhoogata:
Thx it works ! weird bug but not a big deal with your workaround
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] k500zm:
Is there any way to dirty flash the latest update ?? [To stop some apps crashing causing bootloops]

I just updated the last one for the krack and bluetooth fix and it took me a week to get my phone back to how it was

my setup is so damn complicated !
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] thearc77:
I done the dirty flash since bluetooth fix without any issue.

My step (always done)

Reboot to recovery

Wipe System and caches

Install rom, lastest gapps and Supersu

Reboot

Enjoy.

Good luck
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] k500zm:
Thanks for the info thearc77 -I know how to dirty flash and it wont work on my phone as I have modified it so much.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Dirty_5_Thirty85:
I wish someone was do something like this for the Alcatel one touch fierce xl 5054n. :(
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] honzax111:
Great work! Thanks for solving the bootlooping apps bug. Testing latest build, so far so good except for fm-radio not working.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] k500zm:
fm radio works fine here - latest build rocks !
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] LucasPlayMG:
This last compilation of ROM is very fluid, I have installed several apps, and launchers and did not give a problem, it is even faster than ROM Stock.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Federck:
Thank you very much for the work. probe the rom and is much faster than the stock rom and for the moment I can not find any bug so that's fine.

The only inconvenience I had was that while surfing in fb the phone suddenly rebooted but it only happened once. in everything else 10/10
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] alecbl:
you're welcome. I've noticed the reboots, they started somewhat recently.

I've had trouble making november build but I will get it done soon.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] RustMar:
The only problem I'm having with this last compilation is that every time I install an app outside the play store the install button does not work, and it was nice also if the rom was cleaner as if it was an official rom.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] thearc77:
Not an issue here and now exist File Go from Google (no the best nor the only choice but a decent and official one) for cleaning
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] alecbl:
The greyed out install issue is a current lineageos bug... unfortunately development on MM branch is pretty stale. If you go from install screen to task switcher (or some other app), and back, the install button is now clickable.

What do you figure should be cleaned out of the rom?
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] MitchLazzlo:
Thank you for this amazing work ;) I installed the latest build (20171106) and my phone works like a charm.

However, I have a little issue with Firefox (57.0.1) : the first time I open it, I have to wait a certain amount of time (sometimes 30 seconds) before a web page displays.

This is pretty annoying. In comparison, Chromium displays web pages instantanaly.

Anyone can confirm this ?

I don't know if this a lineageos related bug or a firefox bug ...
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] jordiet:
Hi alecbl!

A week ago I went through all the classic hacks for an idol3 4.7": recover fastboot, repartition to 16GB and move to your ROM.

My main motivation was the WPA fix, so thanks for the effort to bring the security patches up to that, but now that the phone is clean and free of all the crap Alcatel had in it, I am doubly grateful for your work. I have zero regressions and the phone is just a lot better now. :victory:

Thank you!

No, I cannot reproduce this on my phone. Firefox works just great here.

Happy holidays folks.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] thearc77:
Happy Christmas to you. The new build works very well. Even with a mistake form my side in flash process (broke permission settings) but all work flawless (suhide lite included)

Cheers form Argentina
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] danieldeak70:
Google play services stopped working.(latest build)

Again...again and again

I try (cache,dalvik clear)

Edit:

Don't work.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] thearc77:
Simply reinstall all Google apps you have. Since this worked very well without any issues or reboots
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] danieldeak70:
I try but didn't work. I cleaned (dalvik,data,cache) and I reinstalled... and it's worked .

Now it's working superfine :)
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] neutrinobox:
my idol 3 works well with all gapps... there a no problems.

The only issue i have is no auto connect to LTE/4G when the phone lost signal "driving in car etc..."

Last Night i fixed Audio quality in camcorder. Id sounds like underwater with this rom.... so i tried out something.....

There was no "audio_platform_info.xml" in /system/etc so i installed one with the camcorder entries from a Nexus 5.

Now the recorded audio iss perfect !

put the file in the attachment in /system/etc , give it some rights an be happy with camcorder
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Phantom410:
I'm facing settings app FC when opening data usage, I'm currently unabalable to upload catlog unfortunately so if anyone else is having this issue please report
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] alecbl:
For donations I've setup up paypal, and also have a bitcoin address that should appear on my profile. Both are fine.

Yes, the rom mostly works, but theres still plenty low hanging fruit to go through. I'm optimistic about what I can do. The only thing that really worries me is the camera. I've spent quite a few hours already trying to learn how the different pieces fit together to better understand where the issues might reside. Ps: it's not just that the front cam appears dark on Camera2 app, the other apps dont have the darkness issue but just crash. Which I guess will be helpfull into getting to the root of the issue.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] :
The only thing I've noticed so far is the whole front facing camera thing, which doesn't even affect me as I don't take selfies. Super smooth rom as a whole with excellent battery life! Expect a donation from me next payday, good sir!
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] heross:
Super smooth? I can not confirm. The longer it is in use, the slower it becomes, as already under cm12 rom. After 2 days and havy use with navigation the rom is extreme laggy. One is good, rom do no more ends background apps, so how CM12 do this.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] alecbl:
Can you provide more info? Describe what you mean by heavy use with navigation please.

How do you measure the lag? If you were to show someone else how it was lagging, could you follow a few steps to reproduce it? or is it random?

is everything slow or does it choke sometimes? Maybe it just stalls when changing from one app to the next? How much free space do you have? Is it heating too much when it's lagging? What happens if you run some benchmark app?

You said it already happened under cm12. Do you mean pivoq's rom? Does it work well in stock? Can you rewrite the last phrase about ending background apps please? It's not clear to me what you meant.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] heross:
Yesterday i have use TomTom, Navigon, Blitzer.de, Firefox, XDA-Labs, Locus and a Wheather app. On the end of the day i had 200MB free RAM and a temperatur from 34°C, but start a new app lasted until 10 seconds. Apps itself run normal after start, but menu little bit lag.

Same i had last Summer under CM12from pivoq. This too was getting slower within a few days. If i have run under CM12 iGo Primo with TTS "Vocalizer + a radarcamera app in background, so ends after 10-30min TTS speak and after a few hours ends the radarcamera app without lastphrase or error message.

In this CM13 the "close Background app bug" is fixed. TTS and radarcamera app have do their job perfect over many hours in use.

With Stock MM from decker i have nothing from this problems and i can run the Phone without reboot longer then 14 Days without performance loss. (same settings, same apps)
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Phantom410:
I have noticed some heating when doing even non intensive tasks, like long phone calls or even downloading stuff.

I can't get LTE connectivity on my 6039A

I like using TeamBlackOut black apps, youtube is installed with no issue, but calendar doesn't show up after flashing the zip (Not sure if this one is ROM related)
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] alecbl:
I'll post a new build in a couple days. It will have irq balancing enabled which is a very minor thing. It will also disable a service (post processing) that's basically crashing repeatedly and cluttering the logs, which generates tombstones and writes them, generating I/O. With that disabled it feels a bit snappier (which is very unreliable as a meter stick, but shows as a 10% IO performance increase in antutu), but I doubt this alone could have the impact you're describing. If you want to test if it helps you, just get to a shell as root, remount /system as rw, delete /system/bin/mm-pp-daemon and reboot.

Long app start times should be caused by slow I/O, which in turn might be caused by low memory. Does anything interesting show up on logcat? Given no one else has complained yet and I myself don't experience the issue you report, it would be best if you could dig into it and see if you can find out more about the problem, maybe narrow down what might be wrong.

For instance, If you close down background apps, does the issue go away or is a reboot always needed?.

Either way it might get better on the next ROM build in a few days. Like it says on the OP, this ROM is in an early phase and issues are expected.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] heross:
Thanks alecbl,

i have now delete mm-pp-daemon and will see.

But for a alpha build it is very stable and have me bring yesterday over 900km without any FC. With cm12 the problems were clearly more pronounced. So it was not usable for me.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] pashapuma:
Add in build.prop

ro.product.model=6039Y
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] alecbl:
[MENTION=5759270]pashapuma[/MENTION]

Are you using the most recent build? init should be doing that for all variants (you need to detect variant so you can setup the prop for single sim or dual)
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Phantom410:
My 6039A shows unknown as device model under settings
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] alecbl:
If you're using the last build that's linked in OP and it's showing unknown, that is probably the reason why you don't have LTE connectivity.

Can you run the following command on a shell and tell me it's output please?

strings /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/traceability | grep '6039'
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] PyotrV:
Mine also said that in the previous build but on the last one it identifies the phone correctly and I have access to both cards and LTE on both of them ( one at a time)
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] PyotrV:
Screen I forgot, and battery stats for my first run without sim cards (screen time 4h 30 min)
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] thinkertank:
No carrier names

I flashed this on a 6039y we variant. I am currently roaming, and the issue I face is that the network operator names are "missing". Only the id numbers are shown, even in the about, sim status section.

Other than this, the ROM is excellent, so thank you very much for the great work!
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Phantom410:
Didn't realize you updated yesterday, will install the update and report if problem persists!
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] PyotrV:
Found a bug but I am not really sure if it is from the ROM or some Google service going nuts, basically in my phone if I turn on location either in battery saving or high accuracy mod the CPU never goes below 25% utilization and the device gets slower and hot as a result. Turning off location makes the CPU behave normally again (1-2 percent utilization on cpu-z when it's not doing anything)

Ps:forget it, it's not a problem with the rom but with the latest beta of nova launcher

The ROM is almost perfect for me. Some apk are installing well but they are in an infinite loading process. It's happening with: "yuka" and "share the meal". I don't have Google play services, but microG. Can someone try to install one of them and test please? Thanks.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] jordiet:
Has anyone encrypted their data with this ROM? I did when I got it done a few months ago and it works great. However, today I wanted to flash alecbl's latest release, and I found that my recovery had apparently been replaced by the Alcatel one (how on earth did that happen?), and after flashing the twrp listed in alecbl's file list (twrp 3.1.0-2017-03-14), I cannot decrypt the data partition. I am unsure if I ever tried it so I wonder if I broke it by reflashing twrp or it is just not supported. [MENTION=7821916]alecbl[/MENTION], do you know?
