[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aladin62:
i've triyed many firmwares to see if the rom have something to do with it but same result only emergency calls ... now it works after installing the patch, but i really want to use android 4.4 (back to noot rom) but after flashing those patches on it Patched_XXUGMK6_kernel.zip ,Patched_XXUGMK6_modem.zip the phone wont boot

i dont know from any region the phone from ...

and the imei isn't 0049 i think that it's because of the patch who maked the network work again
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
It's definitely the patch that makes it work but the problem you have is "why won't it work without the patch".

That suggests there is something else a miss with that phone and it would be worth investigating before you flash something and brick it.

Flashing random firmware is not recommended unless you have the BTU version as that is truly unlocked and debranded.

If I were you I'd be investigating to turn the phone completely stock and start over so you know exactly where you're at with it.

From what I've read so far, you could have flashed a firmware from before 4.3 when the phone has previously been updated to 4.3. This would cause efs issues and affect imei etc.. Then you flash the patches and you have a half working device..

I don't know the exact background as you're not very forthcoming about the phone, probably because you don't know a lot and are basically "shooting fish in a barrel", like I am right now..

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aladin62:
thank you so much for the answer ... i would turn the phone completely stock and start over ... but i dont really know what is the offcial stock tom for this phone... and there is no way to know from which version it came ... now i have flashed the back to noots rom ... and i have only emergency calls , the phone is showing the contacts but when i call one of them to test it shows " Not registered on network "
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
Flash to stock and get the phone working as it should.

Backup your modem and efs.

Flash back to noot.

Restore your modem and efs from the working stock backup and reboot the phone.

Finger crossed you 'should' have a working device..

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asusgarb:
Hi everybody. I've read many articles in the web about this 2 functions trying to understand if they help or not increasing battery life.

I found some saying that they help battery life and some saying it decrease battery.

What is the truth? They help or not battery life? Or, is there a particular combination that can help battery life?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asusgarb:
Now I don't remember where. I usually Google what I need to find and then I read forums like XDA. Forums dedicated to technology, and I usually trust posts created by high rate users.

But I found both versions (more often the one that says they drain battery) but I couldn't find here in XDA, and that's why I asked.

The Unlegacy Android Project​

Introduction

Unlegacy-Android started out as the OMAP4-AOSP Project. It was created in late 2015 in order to maintain a clean and organized place for pure AOSP support for various OMAP4 devices, such as the Galaxy Nexus and the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 series. Over time this evolved to support more than just these devices, but still maintains its roots of supporting "legacy" devices that no longer receive "official" updates: hence Unlegacy Android was born. In our opinion, these ROMs are how the official updates would look.

On top of AOSP, we only include changes which are necessary to support the hardware, be secure, and get acceptable performance. Current features for hammerhead include:

BFQ IO scheduler (official kernel 3.4 release), set up so GUI processes have the highest priority

Volume button wakeup (setprop persist.wm.volume_wake_screen 1)

Last upstream (kernel/msm) hammerhead kernel tag merged

Charging LED control (setprop persist.sys.led_on_charger 0)

Enhanced backlight map for lower min brightness

Night display blue light filter (GLES-based)

KCAL & PCC color temperature interfaces

Other security patches & minor bug fixes

F2FS support from K4.4 backports

SELinux in Enforcing mode

Installation

It's important that /system needs to be unmounted before installing the ROM - some recoveries tend to leave it mounted after performing operations on it.

If you're planning to install GApps, be sure to read the second post.

Aside from these, installation and upgrading is no different than on other ROMs.

Problems

No known issues on Nougat builds

See post #3 for Oreo/Pie notes

If you notice anything, be sure to report it in this thread. Stability is our main concern. While it may takes some time, I usually read the thread and acknowledge the bug reports, even if I don't reply directly to them.

Downloads

See: http://builds.unlegacy-android.org. Our automated builds ensure that we always have the latest Android security patches merged in, without having to manually start and upload builds :)

Also, we'll have a built-in OTA updater (just like stock) soon (it's a work in progress).

Features?

There isn't much to say here - this is AOSP, if you install GApps, you pretty much get the same thing that's running on the Nexus devices (see second post). The aim of this project is to create a fast and stable ROM, as close to AOSP as possible without diminishing usability. Occasionally, small non-AOSP features may be implemented, provided there is a clear need and they make sense on hammerhead.

GApps

If you want to install GApps, we recommend micro packages on N builds (e.g., Open GApps), and pico otherwise.

An important note: as this is a pure AOSP ROM, installing GApps tends to be problematic: in order to try to avoid installation issues, be sure to install GApps immediately after installing the ROM, before booting the system for the first time. If you experience any issues with the Google applications, be sure to go into Settings -> Apps, and grant every permission to every Google application - most importantly, Google Play services.

In the case of an upgrade, be sure to re-install the GApps package, as upgrading wipes /system. You shouldn't need to re-set the permissions afterwards.

Stock-like setup

Disable the following built-in (AOSP) apps:

- Android keyboard (once you installed Gboard)

- Browser

- Calculator

- Camera

- Clock

- Email

- Gallery

Install the following apps from the Play store:

- Google Photos (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.photos)

- Calculator (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.calculator)

- Chrome (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.android.chrome)

- Clock (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.deskclock)

- Gboard (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.inputmethod.latin)

- Gmail (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.gm)

- Google Calendar (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.calendar)

- Google Camera (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.GoogleCamera)

- Google Now Launcher (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.launcher)

Rooting

You can flash the latest SuperUser (phh's open source fork), Chainfire's SuperSU, or Magisk to get rooted.

Oreo/Pie Status & CAF Notes

Oreo 8.1 builds are almost bug-free at this point, but still tagged as experimental. While last issues are sorted out, I will trigger manual builds, also published at https://builds.unlegacy-android.org/aosp-8.1/hammerhead.

To my knowledge, these are the remaining issues:

Bluetooth HFP speaker (mono/SCO) output is garbled. This seems related to a more general issue with audio effect/ACDB blobs.

Once all visible issues are fixed, and stability is comparable to Nougat builds, I'll switch on official builds on our Jenkins server.

Pie 9.0 builds are also becoming fully usable. Current builds have the same one remaining HFP bug described above.

Beyond "official" experimental builds, I post personal builds (including CAF experiments) in the hammerhead folder here.

Regarding sources for the WIP CAF kernel-based builds, see https://github.com/airend/android_kernel_lge_hammerhead/commits/tmp/caf+113+common. Corresponding device tree is still in rough shape and not uploaded yet, but assuming everything goes well, it'll replace current device tree when it's ready.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nexive:
I've used the 05/04 build for 2 days a few weeks ago and it was a great rom.

The only issue I came across back then was that it has the green flickering when recording videos.

It's nice that the project has a XDA thread now and I gonna test this rom asap.

Thanks for keeping our good old Nexus 5 up to date. :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] amaces:
Should be fixed on current builds (both green bar, and Google Camera flickering).
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] CreateYourDream:
have a volume wake option?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] alessio89g:
Does it have issues with network location (Battery saver location)?

Some AOSP-based ROMs have this issue, so many apps (Chronus, Google Fit, f.lux, Instagram) can't get location.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Ziyan:
No, all UA ROMs have this issue fixed :)

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] alessio89g:
I've flashed it for about half a day, and it's very promising, it seems a great ROM!

I've noticed only three defects:

- The blue light filter (Night mode) is missing;

- With stock kernel, SuperSU will be in system mode;

- The Clock app crashes if you try to add another Time zone in the main screen.

Everything else works fine.

Not sure if anyone noticed this yet but if you delete the APN and leave it empty then calls and SMS are working fine and don't disconnect. Only has issues when it tries to connect to mobile data. Currently using my tablet data as a shared hotspot to give me mobile data on the go and all is seems pretty solid when on wifi.

You can input and enable your APN, and as long as mobile data is disabled, the network will not drop and you can use calls and SMS.

Found one error... I'll try to explain it.

I've tried to encrypt my phone with latest CAF.

To do it, I've set a PIN.

After the encryption ended, the phone was unable to boot and it booted to TWRP... but it asked me for a PATTERN... no way to de-encrypt... no way to boot into android... bad news.

Then, I've reformatted and reinstalled... and retired to encrypt setting a PATTERN.

This time encrytion went ok... with my PATTERN.

Rebooted to TWRP and it asked me for a PIN ¿?

Rebooted to Android and changed PATTERN to a PIN.

Rebooted to TWRP and it asked me for a PATTERN ¿?

What is happening here? In older android versions, whe you set a PATTERN, also asks you to set also a PIN.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Aswin08:
Encryption is not working in Pie ROMs for most devices I guess. In most of the the threads I have seen Encryption is stated as not working.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Huexxx:
Well, encryption IS WORKING right now in my phone... but I cannot decrypt data on TWRP.

As I commented on last post... with PATTERN TWRP asks for a PIN, with PIN TWRP asks for a PATTERN, and without lock (slide) TWRP asks for a password.

I'll try all options...

Best regards.
