Which opengapps xan i use 7.0 or 7.1??
[One (M8) Android Development] David 617:
7.0
[One (M8) Android Development] miffymiffy:
Is it 7.0 or 7.1? Which gapps?

haha beat me. sorry for the double question
[One (M8) Android Development] David 617:
CM 14 is Android 7.0
[One (M8) Android Development] heobanhki:
Missing Simcard

Bug for me: Missing Simcard/no imei!!
[One (M8) Android Development] David 617:
Give it time. It takes a while to detect sim card
[One (M8) Android Development] aj20010319:
Yea...14, so let's download the CM14 source code :D
[One (M8) Android Development] heobanhki:
I'm using open_gapps arm 7.0 pico, it wrong?

Add

Reflash without Gapp, but not work
[One (M8) Android Development] Imotep95:
Time.. Wait, it'll show eventually.
[One (M8) Android Development] DTLblaze:
I'm sure soon once the stable build for the CM 14.1 for single sim is out you will have one for double sim by the developers.

---------- Post added at 08:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:35 PM ----------

Heard that the devs are fixing bugs left, right and center. Hopefully new build soonish! Keep up the great work guys.
[One (M8) Android Development] backtrack292:
i can't wait :)
[One (M8) Android Development] fizbanrapper:
We're cooking some good ****. You guys are going to love it.

I haven't been impressed with an Android release since kitkat. Nougat is better.
[One (M8) Android Development] David 617:
Dunno what you're talking about...

We are at Oreo already
[One (M8) Android Development] fizbanrapper:
oreo!!!

Leaked here first!
[One (M8) Android Development] David 617:
Oh ****!!! Tell AndroidPolice!
[One (M8) Android Development] DTLblaze:
Any more development news David? BTW great work!
[One (M8) Android Development] David 617:
I just want to say that everyone owes a big thank you to all the devs working on this. The entire Team M8 is working round the clock (literally) to bring 7.1 to the M8.

flashed 3/11/2016 but no sound no ring tone working no sound at all
[One (M8) Android Development] aj20010319:
Try flashing firmware.
[One (M8) Android Development] Ghosign:
Sometimes it will lose CDMA signal after SIM Card hot-plugging

I'm not a navtive English Speaker, so I'm not sure if you can understand me.

I have 3 SIM Cards, 1 GSM (China-Unicom) and 2 CDMA (China-Telecom). No matter what Card I use , changing to a CDMA Card will bring a signal loss sometimes.

But switch to the Card before, it works well again. Even the matter happened while I change one CDMA Card to the other, changing to the GSM card won't meet this. So I think this problem only occur when a new CDMA card insert.
[One (M8) Android Development] hassoly:
i have already latest firmware. is there is firmware for android N ??? what recommended firmware ???
[One (M8) Android Development] aj20010319:
Nope, there isn't any for N, not sure what's causing this then, maybe someone else knows.
[One (M8) Android Development] BABmercurius:
thank you very much for the update! Giving you just a feedback

-seems pretty stable

-can reproduce long delay until sim is being recognized

-camera: firstly installed rom i had a black cam after switching between video & photo; working now after having reinstalled this rom (14.1 04112016)

-missing my flight mode in power menu (maybe i can add to quick settings, didn't find this option yet, i am giving it an other try)

-quick settings - translation issue? "Do not disturb" shows three options "loud-", " only" and "only" (see screenshot). Seems as if the background doesn't adapt to the text.
[One (M8) Android Development] rudywall:
With this kernel can you use agps and gyroscope?
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
That was the very least worry I had for the moment. A-GPS is disabled in userspace and the gyro hack was indeed not picked because I am unsure if it is still needed or not. Why don't you do me a favour and try for yourself?
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Okay, I assumed everything was fine and moved to rebase kernel.

Now I only need someone with the GSM variant of M8 (not Sprint or Verizon) to test a full build using OSS RIL. I appreciate if any tester volunteers. This is for a greater cause as it may be beneficial for the future. O is closer.
[One (M8) Android Development] ahmed.ismael:
i didn't had a chance to test the kernel

but count me in testing the full build

thanks in advance

edit

i have a gsm m8 single sim
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Perfect. :highfive: I will build it probably tonight and upload it for you.
[One (M8) Android Development] ahmed.ismael:
thanks for your work
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Totally unrelated, but do you have a DotView case by any chance?
[One (M8) Android Development] ahmed.ismael:
unfortunately no
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
There you go: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8_wE7hA-VzKa0lQMnR0SzU1Yzg

Make a backup of your current data (to restore after the tests) and clean flash this build without installing any other mods. The only testing to be done is related to RIL, so phone calls and mobile data.
[One (M8) Android Development] ahmed.ismael:
so flashed it and briefly tested it

wifi works,mobile data works,receiving calls works but making calls will crash the RIL

the log attached hope it's enough
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
That's the first log that I see with some more interesting info. Mind testing these two new builds? I prefer the main one, if it works.

Main: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8_wE7hA-VzKdmpsTWhTaGJYRmc

Alt: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8_wE7hA-VzKNW94eHY1VjFITjA
[One (M8) Android Development] ahmed.ismael:
will give it a try both builds but will take sometime

thanks in advance

about logs i know how to capture but dunno how to read :eek:
[One (M8) Android Development] ckpv5:
I tried the main one to see if it can read my 64gb sdcard (still unsupported as other nougat ROMs); it can't detect my SIM.

Now downloading the ALT one to test.

Edit : it seems the one I tested is the ALT. (Downloaded before links were edited)

Now downloading the MAIN.
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Any news? Tell me it worked. What kind of ultra special sdcard do you have anyway?
[One (M8) Android Development] ckpv5:
Oh .. I don't report back because not really testing them as you requested for tester to test RIL. Anyway, unfortunately both builds, SIM was not detected on my single SIM M8. The ALT one, SIM on settings which is greyed out for both SIM1 & SIM2 and the MAIN one, Celullar networks is greyed out all its options. Maybe [MENTION=7003469]ahmed.ismael[/MENTION] will get back to you soon for the RIL test.

Nothing big about the sdcard, some users including me & [MENTION=7003469]ahmed.ismael[/MENTION] (that's why I was talking to him about sdcard test) with SDXC 64gb sdcard (mine is cheap Remax) unsupported on Nougat. Some people has problem with 16gb & some with 32gb but for me no problem for both 16gb & 32gb, only 64gb is unsupported.
[One (M8) Android Development] ahmed.ismael:
is the alt build for dual sim variant ?

i can confirm ckpv5 reports

alt build didn't detect sim card

main build didn't detect the​ sim as well

but in the initial setup mobile data worked but once make a call it crash the ril and never back to work ( tried to reproduce it to capture a log with another clean flash but didn't detect the sim at all in second clean flash )

i hope the attachments have​ some use

thank you
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
[MENTION=7003469]ahmed.ismael[/MENTION] [MENTION=830797]ckpv5[/MENTION] New build to test: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8_wE7hA-VzKWkRjeHpfSXBLMFU. Stupid question, but do you have the latest modem from the last GPe ROM (HTC package 5.07.1700.15 -

htc/m8_google/htc_m8:6.0/MRA58K.H15/666676:user/release-keys)?
[One (M8) Android Development] ahmed.ismael:
i'm on marshmallow sense firmware with KitKat radio (1.22.xxxxxx)

i can try another radio if it will make a difference ( but that will be limited to s-off users and have some risks )

downloading the build now will back with the result
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
That's intriguing. Why would you do that? Did you update all the firmware and then downgraded radio? :confused: Of course that downgrading or changing radio between different CID's requires S-OFF, but I am thinking if this could be related to older radios. I really think it's quite strange that M8 Dual SIM is working fine with OSS RIL as well as Spring and Verizon variants of M8 single SIM and only the GSM is showing this kind of problems.
[One (M8) Android Development] ahmed.ismael:
flashed a signed M RUU then the kitkat radio ( in early nougat builds i have a lot of issues using the m radio like dropping in recipetion and instability connection,downgrading the radio helped a lot and saved some battery dunno why )

i can flash the m radio again and test all the builds once again ( let's see how it goes )
[One (M8) Android Development] ckpv5:
I'm on Sense Marshmallow 6.14.707.1 firmware with its radio as shown in screenshot

Briefly tested making & receiving calls, no problem.

Data testing - bit slow but cannot say it's ROM/Kernel problem yet because since yesterday & today the telco is upgrading their service that may affect performance. Will see in next 2 days.
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
That's pretty cool. Making calls no longer crashes RIL? [MENTION=7003469]ahmed.ismael[/MENTION], can you also confirm?
[One (M8) Android Development] ahmed.ismael:
Yes I can confirm it's working fine ( mobile data and receiving&making calls )

On the k radio 1.22.xxxxxxxx
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
[MENTION=7003469]ahmed.ismael[/MENTION] [MENTION=830797]ckpv5[/MENTION] : https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8_wE7hA-VzKSnV5N3lSRHZoQ2M. Can you check this out? This build includes RIL blobs from Sense based ROM instead of GPE and I want to check if I can get rid of some nasty hack. Please check outgoing calls again a let me know the result.
[One (M8) Android Development] ahmed.ismael:
well after first boot it took 2 minutes to detect the sim ( WiFi working fine )

rebooted to recovery flashed SuperSU and rebooted again it took about 10 minutes to detect the sim once I make a call the RIL crashed and never back to work again

hope this log useful
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
[MENTION=7003469]ahmed.ismael[/MENTION] [MENTION=830797]ckpv5[/MENTION] : https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8_wE7hA-VzKYVRzUTJhbjk1b0E. One final test please. I am really finishing and promise that this case will be closed for good this week.
[One (M8) Android Development] ahmed.ismael:
it's the same as the previous build

took some time to detect the sim then when it detected it and trying to make a call it crashes the RIL and never back to work again

thanks in advance
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Uhhh.... Did you download it from the link I provided today? The filename is "lineage-14.1-20170820-UNOFFICIAL-m8.zip". Pretty sure that this one works.
[One (M8) Android Development] ahmed.ismael:
no I have both builds as 19/8

will download the 20/8 and back with result
[One (M8) Android Development] ahmed.ismael:
OK 20/8 build briefly tested and it's working fine making and receiving calls are fine also mobile data is fine
[One (M8) Android Development] CanBostanci:
Is this ROM stable for daily usage? How's the battery?

[MENTION=7003469]ahmed.ismael[/MENTION] [MENTION=830797]ckpv5[/MENTION] : https://review.lineageos.org/#/q/topic:m8-caf-ril merged! Thanks for your time during the testing.
[One (M8) Android Development] djlukas1983:
What is CAF RIL?
[One (M8) Android Development] :
RIL = Radio Interface Layout

CAF is a custom linux kernel branch in place to support qualcomm hardware. It's directly supported from qualcomm and it's a more optimized branch for snapdragon devices. [MENTION=455439]bgcngm[/MENTION] correct me if i'm wrong.
[One (M8) Android Development] ahmed.ismael:
RIL= Radio Interface Layer

RIL is a library that acts as a bridge between your device's phone functions and the radio firmware in your device's communications chip (radio)

http://www.netmite.com/android/mydroid/development/pdk/docs/telephony.html

CAF= Code Aurora Forum

Code Aurora Forum (CAF), a git-based collaborative open source project at The Linux Foundation, hosts tested open source software code needed to provide open source and upstream enablement for innovative, performance optimized, wireless, connectivity and related ecosystems to support system on a chip (SoC) products. It also serves as a staging area for open source code that is submitted to various upstream projects such as the Linux kernel and Android. CAF also mirrors key upstream projects for use by the community

https://www.codeaurora.org/projects/all-active-projects/android-msm

in short

RIL is an important libraries for the phone to function as it should

CAF is a project to build open source software for qualcomm based devices

that's what i know and i hope it help you to understand

Attention... spoiler alert!
[One (M8) Android Development] ClassicalDude:
Since the 8/24 official release, with the official kernel, gps signal is extremely unstable. Does this have to do with these latest merges? Couldn't see anything else relevant in the change log.

As soon as I rolled back to the previous week's version, issue was resolved.
[One (M8) Android Development] djlukas1983:
I'm on 8/24 official with official kernel and my GPS works great.
[One (M8) Android Development] ClassicalDude:
I am using Waze to navigate. Since the update, the gps works, but loses its fix every few seconds. Other apps may be compensating for that.
[One (M8) Android Development] ClassicalDude:
By the way, did you extract and flash boot.img separately? If you just flash the lineage os zip through twrp, it doesn't replace the kernel.
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Of course it does replace the kernel. The OTA package includes a boot.img.
[One (M8) Android Development] djlukas1983:
I didn't flash boot.img separately. I've flashed the whole rom after wipe of data, system and caches. Before I did that I was on GPE ROM so it's impossible to kernel not be flashed by it selves. Even when you do a dirty flash, kernel is flashing too.
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
[MENTION=7003469]ahmed.ismael[/MENTION] : I will give a go to source-built GPS HAL once again. Hopefully it will work this time, so that A-GPS can be re-enabled for good. Are you able to do some more testing?
[One (M8) Android Development] ClassicalDude:
Perhaps this is true for OTA, but I got used to downloading the zip and flashing it manually, from back when OTA did not work. When you do flash manually, the boot.img (which is of course included in the zip) does not get flashed unless you extract it and flash it by itself. I discovered it when magisk failed to patch the kernel after a rom update, claiming that the kernel was already patched. Tested and discovered the kernel did not get overwritten in the upgrade process.
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
You are wrong. And I may have misled you when I referred to OTA package. What I mean is that the official .zip installer package (OTA or not) includes boot.img and it is indeed flashed.
[One (M8) Android Development] ClassicalDude:
I do not doubt for a second your knowledge and experience. I tried upgrading to 8/24 again. My system has TWRP 3.1.1, SELinux Enforcing, S-On. In TWRP the console only had messages about patching the system image. After that the Magisk automated recovery script complained that the kernel it found was already patched by Magisk. Tried rebooting - and got a bootloop. Went back to recovery, flashed the boot.img I extracted from the 8/24 zip - and no bootloop.

At least in my case, the kernel does not get flashed unless I do it manually. If there's anything I'm doing wrong, please let me know.
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
That's because you are messing with Magisk. In a normal case you don't need to flash boot.img separately.
[One (M8) Android Development] ahmed.ismael:
sure,any time

that's what i can do just testing and report

thank you for your work

---------- Post added at 08:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:52 PM ----------

no way the boot.img won't flashed with the rom.zip

magisk scripts may have something wrong and if it doesn't then the bootloop issue isn't related to rom but to magisk for sure
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
And there you go: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8_wE7hA-VzKMjJvU3pfVTViSWM

Anyone else willing to test this build, it includes the source-built GPS HAL and finally A-GPS is enabled. The more testers the better.
[One (M8) Android Development] David 617:
Awesome work! Thanks for keeping this device alive.

(haven't tested the build, but it's great to see activity here.)
[One (M8) Android Development] A n d r 0 i d:
AGPS works perfectly! Dirty flashed over your 20170820 build.

Time to GPS lock is now 2-5 seconds! Google maps works very well, as does GPS Status

I will keep testing over the next few days

Thankyou for your efforts!
[One (M8) Android Development] binhminhluc9h:
Is these stock camera stable in lastest build and how about the battery, a-gps. Could someone give me some reviews, thanks
[One (M8) Android Development] bluehunter9:
I just tested as well and a-gps does seem to work as the location lock is as fast as stock ROMs.

Will keep testing too.
[One (M8) Android Development] ckpv5:
Waiting for your test report.

I have a problem installing this latest test build. After installation is completed, it didn't boot for me.

When I managed to boot it, the boot animation lag alot and also the setup page lag too (same scenario when first kernel 3.4.90 was released). Downloaded twice, once thru phone, second on PC (in case bad download)

Only yesterday I deleted the Aug 20th test build, so no chance to make a dirty flash. Aug 20th build worked perfectly for its test purpose.
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
That's a bug related to the sensor I2C bus which I am trying to fix and occurs very sporadically. Power off the device and turn it back on. A reboot doesn't solve, only power off.
[One (M8) Android Development] ckpv5:
That's it .. managed to boot and did some test.

This is a question that I posted somewhere else before, how do we check if AGPS is properly working ? I tried to find answer but to date never have a good one.

I never have any GPS issue in my running ROM, so I just made comparison here.

Previously without your fix, after clear & update AGPS data, it would take about 90 sec to get a fix. With your current test build, after clear & update AGPS data, I got a GPS lock in about 30 sec.

I can say the GPS is locked faster than before (after when we clear & update the AGPS data) and another thing that I notice, after the first fix the accuracy is great.
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
That's A-GPS in action!
[One (M8) Android Development] ckpv5:
Great :good: I thought so.

In case anyone wondering what I was talking about this 90 sec & 30 sec, that's the time taken after AGPS is cleared and updated.

For normal usage, open any GPS test app or any GPS Navigation app .. you should get the GPS lock almost instantly (the most waiting time is 4 sec).
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Is there anyone here on Verizon or Sprint (for those living in the US)? I would appreciate some reports if GPS is also working for you.
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Yea, bringing new live to it. Are you on Verizon or Sprint by any chance? I only need to confirm with someone on CDMA networks that nothing breaks there.
[One (M8) Android Development] devNock:
I am going to give it a spin.

I have a few questions though.

1) Should I dirty flash it?

2) Can I use the Team-M8 kernel or will that revert any GPS fixes?
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Don't take me wrong, but I honestly don't know if you should keep using Team-M8 kernel. I am not sure if it was updated to be inline with the new rebased kernel. Would it hurt you if you try just a clean build without any other mods? And yes, you can probably dirty flash it if you're running an unofficial Linage build.
[One (M8) Android Development] devNock:
Just tried updating twice and TWRP gave me an Error 7.

Gonna clean install it without the Team-M8 kernel now.

Will let you know of any update.

P.S. Question: Does it work with f2fs or should I revert to ext4 on /data and /cache ?
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Of course, I didn't remove f2fs support.
[One (M8) Android Development] David 617:
I can confirm this. Team-M8 hasn't been updated in a long time. Stick with stock CM.
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Stock LineageOS. :highfive:
[One (M8) Android Development] David 617:
Lol you can see how long I've been out of the game
[One (M8) Android Development] devNock:
So, GPS works fine. No problem so far. Locking time was quick.

Another thing I noticed was the presence of extra gestures in the unofficial build.

I doubt that they were present in the official builds.

Either way, great work with the built. Will use it for a few days and let you guys know about the battery and performance, if that's okay.
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Thanks for the feedback. Now if only someone on a CDMA network could confirm the same...

That's new, yes. I am working on it and almost finished with that: https://review.lineageos.org/#/q/topic:htc-gestures
[One (M8) Android Development] rudywall:
Hi, where is the link to download the updated ROM with the A-gps works? Please single SIM version.

Another question .. gyroscope works fine? Is important to work with GPS app? I dont know?
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Go a few pages back. The links I share here are for the single SIM version.
[One (M8) Android Development] rudywall:
Gyroscope(working) is very important to GPS?

And the new build , gyro is enabled? Thx
[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Pretty sure that gyro helps the GPS to be even more precise. But why do you have the idea that gyro is disabled? :cool:
[One (M8) Android Development] devNock:
Tested gyroscope with two different sensor apps.

One of the "Diagnose Sensors" option in "Gps status and toolbox" app. And it gives a weird result. As you will notice in the screenshot (one with the dark background), it shows two seperate gyroscopes and says that one of them is absent.

Meanwhile another app "Sensors mutlitool" shows that gyroscopes is working fine and even generated a graph of my actions.

Weirdly, when I try to play a 360° video on YouTube, the video is all blank. This wasn't the case previously. Only happens in the 360° views or when you try to use cardboard view.
[One (M8) Android Development] ahmed.ismael:
so sorry for being that late

i never use any gps services ( only whether i use ) so i can't give an accurate test result but i see a lot of users tested the build and it seems it's different for them

just flashed the build and it works fine for me will keep it for the next few days and will use gps more

let's see what i can find

you are doing a great work here you literally gave a new life cycle for this device thank you very much
