Just Installed the latest build. However, it makes me hard to install an apk file. I downloaded the APK installer pro from playstore in order for me to install the Pixel Launcher app. But overall, the Performance is good.

If anyone needs gapps, I found it here:

Thank you dude,I still get error 6 in TWRP,

finally I tried to extract the file and put both file and folders into system/vendor/overlay and set correct permission.

(755 for folder & 644 for file) then restart system

And now live display is working perfectly

(I deleted one underscore at space between res and auto "frameworks-res__auto_generated_rro.apk")

I'm not sure it's influential or not, but at least it works now. :D

If you mean the system theme, I only use the dark style from settings with icons by Gaia substratum as in the navbar.
[Sony Xperia M2] JuniorCaesar:
yes, push it to the system/priv-app and give right permissions (644) but they will likely need google play services.

Hey, I can not transfer the application from the SD card to the internal memory.

During the transfer, I get an error, not enough memory space.

The application is installed from the play store automatically on the card. In the programming options, I turned off the installation forcing on the sd card.

I did a full wipe before installation.
[Sony Xperia M2] hooooossamq:
how did you make substratum work? i installed it but when i open themes or any substratum apps its dont even open them.i git a message that abut resource files cant be found or somthing.what i must do?
[Sony Xperia M2] iwantz:
I have no problem as you say ,mine all is working fine here.

Nothing special :

1.enter twrp then wipe dalvik,system,data & cache

2.flash Rom

3.flash gapps

4.flash supersu ( i use 2.8.2 sr3)

Reboot and be patient ....

5.set up your phone,then download supersu from playstore (in my case,supersu app doesnt appear on my appdrawer)

6.open supersu then update binaries with normal method,reboot when is completed

7.open supersu then set default acces to grant

8.download substratum and any theme... And supersu will automatic grant substratum root acces.

Good luck

I did every thing you say but the same messege come out when I try to open any theme its say: this theme need to upgrade its resource cache before its functional

Hello

I have Sony M2 (D2302) with android 5.1.1 I want to debrand it ( theres too much useless apps)

Phone is unrooted ( i checked by app root checker)

Phone have installed [M2] [LB] TWRP/CWM/PhilZ Touch Recovery and it works.

Can I download this soft and put to phone memory to install by twrp ? ( I have experience with xiaomi redmi note 2-miui soft)

Enable root in developers menu (root access = Apps and ADB)

But now it will automatically allow root access for any application without a prompt.

I can not find out that the application used root access.

Developers menu - Manage root accesses - is empty ("No applications"). Options "Show user apps", "Show built-in apps" - enabled.

Is this a bug?

What can I do to allow only selected applications to use root access?
[Sony Xperia M2] iwantz:
How about using SuperSU? I use it and it works just as well

You can try it :

Flash this SuperSU

https://download.chainfire.eu/1122/SuperSU/SR3-SuperSU-v2.82-SR3-20170813133244.zip

After reboot,if SuperSU app doesn't appear on your app list,download from playstore,open then update su binaries,reboot And SuperSU should have been working after reboot

Bugs I've encountered so far:

1.Any charging in offline position, my phone can't be turned on even if the charger has been unplugged (Should be turned off first via reset button beside sim slot)

2. Advance reboot to recovery is not working,(Been trying different ways or apps, but nothing works)

Thanks for testing!

- 1080p recording is disabled in media_profiles.xml.You can enable it with some editing. (will be fixed in next release)

- So actually BT is buggy but works?! Nice,i couldnt connect any device with my phone. :)

- Animations/Booting. I might have a fix for that.

- I tested NFC with my credit card. It recognizes it correctly. :)
[Sony Xperia M2] marco2tiger8:
Yes, bluetooth works. The thing that not working is bluetooth device manager (not sure what it is called so I call it bluetooth device manager). I thought the 'Settings" app is buggy. So I use 3rd party app from play store, but it's the same. Everytime I open it, bluetooth starting to turn off and on.

I was lucky to have a headphone that asked to pair with the phone. ;)

Edit:

For everyone that might want some proof, you can see my screenshot, there is two dots on bluetooth indicator ;) .

1_ flash the addonsu 14.1.

2_ flash the SR5-SuperSU-v2.82-SR5-20171001224502.zip (( search in Google)).

3_ open the SR5-SuperSU-v2.82-SR5-20171001224502 with any file manger go to file named /common.

4_ you will find superuser.apk open it and install it.

5_ go to development menu and enable root access for adb and app

6_ reboot your phone

now you will have a root prompt alert to every root access...

Are you trying to reinstall this Rom with official opengapps? Then what problems did you encounter while installing it? :eek:

I haven't tried it yet, not even the thought of trying it out because there's no problem with the gapps version I use when installing this Rom.

Maybe later if we are lucky to get the next update I will try the official opengapps. :D
[Sony Xperia M2] hooooossamq:
why i cant edit any file in the sd card?
[Sony Xperia M2] Szwajowy:
What was the purpose of that post, if u havent tried it..

I said that they do not work and I meaned that if I clean install gapps with rom, then it wont boot up. If I flash it dirty on runing ROM, then Google Play Services keeps FC and you cannot pass "searching for updates" while adding Google account. I think the last working opengapps were from 19.02.2018, the unnoficial one.
[Sony Xperia M2] JuniorCaesar:
So, here is my report after using the rom about 2.5 weeks;

1-) In Settings - Connected Devices section, phone decides to freezing. I don't know what causes this, but when i tap Printing or Cast, phone freezes again and Settings doesn't respond message pops up

2-) There is a performance loss between Alpha 2 and Alpha 4, maybe it is related to Lineage changes

3-) Also battery life is not that good. I get 3.5~4.5 hours SoT compared to 5~6 hours (same customations, MicroG and bunch of google apps + greenify)

4-) Offline charging, but it is not a big problem for me
[Sony Xperia M2] f2065:
My report:

- uptime 12 days, without lags or reboots!

- I2C does not fall off, the sensors work.

- the battery is quickly discharged, about 20% per night.

- bugs in camera: default camera - not working, Footej Camera - very slow to take pictures, hangs 2-3sec when changing orientation.

Again, the I2C bus disappeared (and all sensors stop working), 1-2 times a day!

But in fact 2 weeks before this was never.

During this time, I installed MailDroid. Someone else enjoys MailDroid on M2 Aqua?

What can I do to find the cause of I2C failure?

The problem is critical, not because the sensors do not work, but because it's impossible to turn on the screen while the system is waiting for data from the sensors!

I press Power - and I do not see any reaction! Only after 2 minutes the screen turns on!

I need a bug with I2C fix it!

I2C (and all sensors, and the brightness sensor) stops working every day.

Although at first 2 weeks everything was fine.

I suspect that the problem occurs after installing and configuring MailDroid, leaking some resources. After installing MailDroid - i2c almost daily stops working.

Similarly, PingTools disrupts the proximity sensor after a while. I refused PingTools - and there is no such problem.

But without MailDroid I can not.

can you help me out. there's no Assert lines to remove in the code.
[Sony Xperia M2] iwantz:
if you follow the instructions in op carefully, I do not think you will experience it.

Error 7 you encounter is likely because you haven't updated the bootloader (If I'm not mistaken)

We don't go out of the way to support 3rd party apps.

Nice we finally came to concusion it's your apps and not our ROM.
[Sony Xperia M2] f2065:
But in other firmware there are no problems with all these applications!

And even an incorrect application should not, in normal firmware, disrupt the functioning of i2c.

I already know for sure that the problem is reproduced in the case of MailDroid (and probably on alternative sensors).

After 5 hours after the reboot - the sensors do not work again. In applications, the MailDroid service stopped - the sensors are working.

Started MailDroid again - the sensors are working. Temporarily…

And, I have all the email only with manual checking, and in the settings MailDroid indicated that the device is allowed to sleep.

Crazy things happen sometimes.

Make this one happen.

Backup this folder:

System/app/nfcnci

(I dont know if I remember the folder name correctly but something very similar to this)

Reboot to twrp

Mount system

Go to advanced→file manager

Delete previous folder

You WILL NOT be able to use NFC after doing that!!!

reboot and test sensors.

If this didnt fix any thing then Im sorry, nobody here is facing problems like yours, maybe your hardware sensors (i2c units) are buggy.

Why did I post such thing?

In previous cyanogen builds, my M2 was always rebooting after setupwizard shows up.

I dont know (until now) how to read logcat.

So I tried to delete system apps one by one, until I deleted nfc, since then, I havent faced even one single reboot.

Since then, the first thing I always do is deleting nfc folder after each flashing.

I hope this can fix something even it has nothing to do with sensors.
[Sony Xperia M2] hooooossamq:
