Custom Roms (Lineage etc) - F(x)tec Pro1 Questions & Answers

Ahoi,
the guys from f(x)tec said they would send out some devices to developers of custom roms including lineage to help development of the rom. Did this already happen? Do lineage devs have the phone and did they start porting? Just curious if that happens at all. I'm hoping to put lineage on mine asap.

There are few developers who are making Lineage OS and Sailfish OS for Pro1. Chen showed some alpha build on Twitter previously. Also, devs has the source code since last month.

What I can confirm is that there are 2 senior developers has been working on Lineage OS since a while ago. And they've made some great progress. (All the credit goes to them)
They are awaiting for the official release and can move the porting project into the next stage I believe.
That's as far as I know, and again, it's a great work of Lineage community.
PS: When I tried to flash SFOS initial release onto Pro1 I need to flash a custom TWRP, which is I believe also from Lineage OS devs.

As a member of the proto guys, I can assure you that the fastboot images will get released quickly. We have the shipping firmware, maybe there'll be simply a website for that. A working TWRP exists, but keep in mind system-as-root limitations.

Does backup work now? I'd heard the earliest port worked for flash but not backup.
Any chance you can share? I expect my phone any day now...

Backups require decryption support, but since it's a stock msm8998 platform you can expect that rather quickly. Sharing is what I'll leave to the original creators, we're informed about the shipment progress.

Don't suppose you have a link that could explain this to people who have no idea what you mean?
I think this has something to do with the fact that even as root in Android if you modify stuff in /system it doesn't stick after reboot. But I'm really only guessing and haven't bothered to read up on it yet.

System-as-root means that /system is mounted as /, but it also means that recovery is a part of boot image, so flashing it as the whole boot partition won't let you boot the system. There'll be a need for TWRP installer script.

Thanks for posting this. I've been unable to find any impressions as to the stability of these ROMs. Yes, they are testing roms, but IME there are testing roms and then there are testing roms.
Are these the former (unsupported but mostly stable) or the latter (you don't want any of your real data on it, will crash at random times and missing core functionality)?

It's been stable for some time now. I'll be posting a thread here in the next day or two and making lineage official in the next week or two.

Great to hear it TDM.
Cannot give you enough kudos after lurking in the lineageOS test forum thread and seeing all the work you have been doing.
I may even give AOKP a try once you've had a chance to look at it. Lineage is great but it's been years since the Halcyon days of having _multiple_ viable on-stock Androids!

TWRP 2.7 for HTC Desire S

Hi. As you propably know, there is no TWRP 2.7 for saga. This is why:
Saga would need a number of updates in order to make it work with 4.4 Kit Kat ROMs. 4.4 ROM support really doesn't depend on the recovery itself. The kernel and other parts of the ramdisk have to support SELinux contexts in order for the set_metadata functions to work. I don't have a saga myself and at this point I have no plans to continue to support the device. I've been building saga in a CM7 / gingerbread tree which doesn't support the things needed for SELinux. The device would need to be compiled with an updated kernel in at least a 4.1 and preferably a 4.3 or 4.4 tree to support installing Kit Kat ROMs.
I plan to drop official support for any device that I've been building in ICS or Gingerbread trees which includes saga. If people want to see continued support for those devices, then hopefully developers for those devices will step up and build TWRP themselves and maybe offer their updated device files to us so that we can extend official support.

So basically we need developers who would like to help with that. I'm not that techy to understand what the problem is but I would like you to tell me and help.
BTW! Why our device is not available in DevDB! How do we change that?
Hm. I might take a shot at this. Though I personally prefer 4ext

That's great! It would be even better if you could somehow share some of your work here so maybe someone else could take a look (i don't know if it's possible. But you use github right?) I would love to add this project to DevDB but it seems that our phone is not there and i don't know how to add it.
My github repos are at https://github.com/jdeluyck - I haven't uploaded anything yet save for the changes to the repo file to pull in TWRP.
Here ya go, first build of TWRP 2.7.0.0 for Desire S, which seems to work
Please test and let me know

I flashed it, I backed up my rom, I wiped, I flashed my rom clean, it booted, I went to recovery and I restored my rom. Everything went perfect, no problems whatsoever! Now there are 2 questions left to ask.
1. May I update TWRP for saga developement thread and attach this build?
2. Would you be willing to offer updated device files to TWRP team? From my observation most people download TWRP drom official website and it would be great if 2.7 would make an appearance there.
Anyway great work devil-kin :highfive: Personally I see TWRP as the best recovery and I'm on it from 2.2. Seeing it still working in its latest iteration on my beloved DS makes little tears appear in the corners of my eyes. I absolutely love this phone for it's size, specs, build quality and weird survability (many screen to sidewalk encounters and no broken glass Only praiseworthy scars). LONG LIVE DS! <3

Bootloader locked or unlocked only?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I'll be quick here:
Until root for a locked bootloader has been found for the Z3 series, no ROM can be flashed.
And even after (or if) you get a recovery and root working on a phone with a locked bootloader, there's still something you have to consider: you cannot flash boot images others than completely stock ones onto a device with a locked bootloader.
This ROM's functionality is completely different than that of any stock ROM, meaning it requires its own boot image (so, one that is not stock).

There are no builds yet so nobody can report back, but camera is said to be broken right now (as with any other AOSP ROM).
Maybe no builds today, they should announce this after at least one build is uploaded.

That would have made sense.
Effort is underway nevertheless.
Be interested to see how long it takes to achieve Daily Driver status. I suspect that's far away... Be surprised if DD aosp for z3c arrives before the z4c hits shelves.
Anyway thanks for working on the z3c. Look forward to peoples experiences with this.
Lol...trust in them,they are nearly the only ones who work a lot on our device.And I just couldn't keep patience,z3c is not popular ,which causes it so slow to see any booting builds on it
edit:
finally found it,http://uploaded.net/f/dv4mt9
sry for previous words.
will test
edit2:
Flashed.
1.no modem band,while wifi works
2.nfc dosen't work
3.no sound,no camera
There may be more issues,but these ones make it not a daily drive...
but at least it boots,and works smoothly!Thank you.
Nothing works? Sony has the code for them I don't understand why they're not releasing them.

Thanks for posting your exoerinece for others to know what's what.
Given this is the first build.... We can only expect improvements which is a good thing. Now they have the build trees and nightlies in order. So let's hope for good progress to follow.
Either way this is good news.. We all have itchy feet for aosp, but at least the devs are now beginning to make strides. So thanks to them for that alone.
There's a 29/12 build. I wonder if it's anything new or just a daily build.
Also, @freexperia what are the sources you're using? I tried looking through your GitHub account but didn't find an aries device tree -- or are you just using the sonyxperiadev branches?
EDIT: Would you guys mind if I mirrored a build every once in a while? DepositFiles and Uploaded cap their download speeds at 50kB/s, way below what most of the planet has.
EDIT2: Here's the mirror I made (hope it's alright with you guys). Took me over 2 hours to get 300MB of data downloaded lol don't want anyone else to feel my pain.https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BzcBVe17cfU-eFp1WnZ3VDRtbUE
I'll be compressing everything I upload with LZMA/LZMA2 and at least a 256MB dictionary -- I'd advise you to have at least 300MB of RAM free when extracting these archives.
Anything RIL-related isn't working (at least not as I can see) -- I have a logcat attached of me fooling around, opening a few apps and such. Perhaps it'll help somebody.

mirroring is useless since new build comes every day

But does each build improve on the previous one? A lot of the daily builds are in essence just copies of the older builds with the only difference being the time at which they were built. At least that's the situation with daily CM builds for this and some other devices.

Dailies are a development tool, not a consumer tool. They are built with what is in the repo's at that time, every day.
If you want builds that are consumer focused with constant improvements over previous you should only flash release builds. Not only will dailies not always be better then the previous, its very likely that they will be worse at time.

I am aware of that, but I was merely pointing out that not every build brings changes as many builds' only difference than the rest is the date on which it was built -- often, the repo stays the same for several days.
I am in no way blaming them or requesting anything from them, just wanted to point out why I believe mirrors aren't pointless.
Is there a changelog for this rom guys? or am I looking in the wrong place. Cheers

I will always use root however I understand some people's need for it to be rootless and well, let's be honest, it ain't hard to flash supersu right after flashing the rom. lol.
OTA is a nice lazy option for the USER but I've gathered from past posts in other threads that it's not always so easy for the dev since the OTA app is maintained/owned by another dev and sometimes has issues. Again, we're talking about a community here who is flashing custom roms on their devices. Manually downloading and flashing shouldn't be a major issue.
Having said all that, if i were to vote I'd say:
Built-in root: No
OTA: Yes (if it's not a headache)

I have tried with gapps aroma and pico with different wipes with no luck. continues to bootloop as soon as I reboot and i never get into the rom. I am back on tema's for now but would love to switch to 19.1 if I could get some help. Sorry for being a noob, Im probably messing something up somewhere and I thank you for your help in advance!

hmmm.. well I managed to get booted by installing temasek's last build (12.9 i think, the one from jan) along with his kernel. It booted fine and made it into setup. I then rebooted to recovery and dirty flashed you 19.1. Got bootlooped and said fk it and re-flashed the kernel and got into 19.1! Now that is great and all, but super weird/inconsistent. Also, once I got everything set up I could not turn on wifi or bluetooth; is this a known issue with a fix? Also, are there recommended installation instructions or is there a recommended kernel for you build? Thanks in advance for your help and patience with my noobness! Again I am on htlespr!

Hmm, still no luck eh? I tried helping ya last night in the other thread. I'm also a hltespr user. I'm still running OH1 baseband however OK2 is the latest. Also, as I told you last night, I'm using an older version of TWRP recovery (ver. 2.8.7) however the latest is 3.0.0.
What baseband are YOU running? Go to settings, "About phone", and look for "Baseband version" and let us know. =)

HTC might need a gentle reminder about releasing kernel sources, none of the U series have been released yet, they are required for us to support SlimRoms/LineageOS/aosp/caf style ROMs.

I didn´t even know HTC never released kernel source for U Ultra etc. I thought they had a good record releasing source code (well, sometimes a bit late but...)
One of my intentions when buying U11 was to create a kernel for the ocean after I took the trip to the Pixel XL and created my first kernel there.

Yes, hopefully next week
I just noticed they added kernel source of u play.
Also a search category for android 7.1 appeared which is still empty. Previously highest was 7.0.
Fingers crossed it's for the 11.
At least TWRP is fully working without it on this device. So I need it less than you kernel/AOSP devs this time around .
I emailed htcdev and asked about all U series kernel source. They said it had been passed on. May just be coincidence though

source is out
Let the fun begin

Yeeeeew!!!
Heh they snuck that out in the few hours of sleep I had last night! Funny they released Vodafone UK source when they don't seem to be stocking the phone! I've been playing with building using the stock kernel. The biggest problem I'm having is actually restoring my stock backup afterwards. /Data either won't restore or when I do fully wipe it and get it to restore it won't accept my unlock code/pattern/fingerprint anymore.
Setting the phone up from scratch every time you test is a pita!

Is it relevant that there still no US unlocked & sprint variations kernel source?

I expect they will come, but it looks like it's fully interchangeable currently, at least I've been running the europe unlocked boot.img on my EE UK single sim device without issue. I've just built it and it's running also.

Ouch, that sounds bad. I'm not sure when I'll start hacking, my vacation is very close and by then I guess most features might be already done and ported for sense kernels.. tho the new soc may add some pain to the equation of simple patching

general question: what's the with move away from roms listing features or including screenshots these days? both blissroms and lineageOS have fancy websites with almost no details on what the roms offer and no screenshots. i get that they are free and owe me nothing but why on earth would i install any of them (and wipe my data) with no information on what i stand to gain?

Exactly I was wondering about the same riddle... Even I came across while just surfing... There is no forum I can put this point up as the only discussion is through telegram and I'm least interested in that...

oh my goodness, telegram is an absolute nightmare, can you imagine trying to work out a list of rom features from a telegram channel? surely one of the worst places to get this kind of information.
anyway i don't like to complain, i'm sure the rom is very good, just a strange phenomenon i've been wondering about lately. i would have thought with stock android getting so much better over the years, rom devs would have had more reason to be more explicit about what their roms offer, rather than less. oh well.
New update guys!!!!!!!!
ROM
& same boot.img referred earlier....
This one is amazing..... June security patch...

Actually I downloaded the boot and used rom ( may release )... Got updated automatically... Working perfectly fine with no issues
boot doesnt work with june! can only install june via ota from may.....need new boot.img from payload.bin
June boot extracted:
Random reboots. Think it's location based as used to happen on my Xiaomi when going outside...
Still nags about update even though it's installed..
Auto brightness stopped working needs reboot.
But I do like the roms battery idle and usage, very good!

I am using this ROM and as of now it's fine. Yes, there is some issue with auto brightness... Rest I hope it's sorted... It's smooth.... Battery optimization is also good...
Does it keep asking to update on reboot?

No.... U update play store... that should fix that... Delete the ROM update that shows even after updating...
... Edit...
Same random reboot when going the shops. 2 different kernels, take phone out to check, soon as turn screen on, death.
