Known Issues (regarding latest available Stable build)
Please do not report bugs if it is already listen in the list of known issues
Rarely, when you wake-up the device, touchscreen will have a noticeable input lag, easily fixable by turning off and on the display. (H/W or S/W bug?)
Wireless Display with some TVs could cause issues (AOSP bug related to HDCP, and Google doesn't provide a solution)
Video Stream through Screencast & Wireless Display will have inverted Red and Blue color channels due to BGR Pixel Format (actual Exynos sources don't allow to fix it)
Any Chinese (CHN, I9500XCUxxx codename) Baseband/Modem reduces Call Quality (due to forced AMR_WB, unsupported by CHN modems)
5GHz Wi-Fi Networks using Band B (52-140) and Band C (149-161) channels won't be listed (H/W or S/W bug?)
Reporting Bugs
You are allowed to report bugs only in this thread. Before reporting a bug, please make sure you are running as stock as possible. This means no custom kernel, no custom framework modification, etc. If you are using any of the above modifications, please flash the rom again to get rid of the modifications before reporting.
REPORT BUGS IN THIS THREAD ONLY
Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
If it is a random reboot, grab /proc/last_kmsg. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
If the problem disappears after running "setenforce 0" from a root shell, grab /data/misc/audit/audit.log
Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. The following is a useful format to follow. Note: If you can provide the latest night/build that the bug didn't exist, it would greatly help in tracking down what caused it.

Read carefully.
Differences between GearCM (Optimized CyanogenMod) and Official CyanogenMod (NIGHTLY):​
Degrated Shadow said:
Enough of those dumb questions..
The official CM rom is maintained by @Alberto96 and @intervigil
He makes the very recent changes here relating to performance.. which are then in time pushed to CM official rom. The kernel is different because it has selinux disabled and few minor tweaks you might not even notice.. this gearcm rom will have more performance. But CM rom will have their updated base changes which are included here with each update.
What I mean is you probably wont even notice what's different in terms of user interface.. gearcm will have more performance. Official cm will have updated sources. But it will include gearcm's changes in time as @Alberto96 pushes them to CM
You can decide by a simple choice. more performance and not-nightly updated sources or similar performance (improving with nightly updates) with updated sources. I would choose gearcm because of the reasons I mentioned above. Do what you will.. and let this be a note to everybody who ask this again and again and again. Don't spam the thread with same question in every alternate page.. Because there are other people who might have different problems they need to ask. Read atleast 15 previous pages and the first post changelog before asking the question. Reading most of the times will give you a solution and if not most of the info you will read will help you anyway.

FAQ (Frequently asked questions)​
Where are "Performance" and "Developer Options" categories?
To activate 'Performance' and 'Developer Options' categories in Settings you need to tap 7 times on 'Build number' located into Settings -> About Phone.
How can i solve problems with Hebrew language?
Go to "Developer Options" in Settings and check "Force RTL layout direction".
What can i do to reduce the "echo effect" while in-call?
Try to reduce in-call earpiece volume (if possible).
I'm having problems with battery life, what can i do?
1) Use "Greenify" to hibernate all apps with a "little cloud + 'Gcm' word inside" on the right of each app's name. Donation version is recommended because it allows deeper hibernation of apps
2) Disable "Location" or set it to mode "Battery Saving" (Settings -> Location)
3) Make sure that your 2G/3G mobile network signal level isn't always low or unstable
4) Deny "Wake Up" and "Keep Awake" permissions to Google and third-party apps. (Settings -> Privacy -> Privacy Guard -> Press menu button and check "Show built-in apps" -> Press menu button again and go to Advanced -> Horizontal Scroll to Device)
5) Disable "Sync" or sync only useful stuff like Contacts
6) Disable "Auto-rotate screen" (Settings -> Display & lights -> Rotation)
7) Use one of the latest Modem/Baseband listed on first post.
8) Disable Ambient Display
9) Install Xposed Framework and configure Amplify
If this isn't enough then replace your battery and/or reduce your phone usage. :silly:
Is GearCM OTA supported?
Yes (Since 20150707 Build)
Why is my phone over-heating while playing heavy-games or running heavy-apps?
Use a bit your brain to explain why. High CPU and GPU usage = high heat production. Your phone will automatically throttle CPU when needed so don't worry, it is safe and normal.
Can I use another kernel instead of the one included in the zip?
No. Only use the included kernel for 100% compatibility, bug reports with non-standard kernel will be ignored.
Can i disable S-View cover features (lock/unlock)?
Not yet.
*** IR Remote app isn't working anymore/was working on previous builds/causes my phone to crash, what can i do?
Contact *** IR Remote app developer.
Any question about "Can't connect to camera" issue
Do not "stress" camera on CM because we don't use yet a proper implementation. Open/Close Camera apps carefully without force-closing them.

fix stock camera try flash this zip https://www.dropbox.com/s/z2a7hegwzu9ft2c/Fix_Camera_Cmmct_5.0.zip?dl=0

Been using lollipop as a daily driver with awesome results. But still there's something that bugs me. Although GPS works fine I find that its accuracy is pretty low.
For instance I run in order to keep fit. I use adidas miCoach which calculates your speed and distance covered giving as result km speed (from Argentina). GPS has a hard time keeping up with this and every time I train I revert to TW and then back to Lollipop.
Will test this GPS and see if its better than team Cajinica

does this rom have working bluetooth calls over car stereo?

Great. Downloading now[emoji1]

"App not installed" if manually install an apk.
Is there any workaround?

@Alberto96 haven't test it on GearCM 11. I'll try and report back asap

Can't install apks.
Although pushing apks to system works. Titanium backup in not able to restore as well.
Edit: I guess Titanium Backup does work. Not with the default superuser though. I flashed supersu to get it working in frapeti's rom, strange.

With GearCM 11 latest build GPS is pretty accurate. Used Waze while driving and miCoach while walking and had good results.
Further testing done with the build posted (20141216) I can't access SD card to install apks that are not from playstore for example BBS, and getting the low memory message even if full wiped and fresh installed.

Can't install APK in this Build ...

Storage Issues
@Alberto96 Hey man there seems to be an issue with your Kernel please take a look at the changes u made as they seem to be the cause of peope not being able to install any APKS and Install from playstore as its complaining about the storage being low so what i did is compile with CM kernel and tested it and the GearCm works fine without any storage issues but if I compile it using ur GearCm Kernel thats where theres storage issues. Please take a look at it

Thanks for your time and dedication of this Alberto. Unfortunately I'm having a hard time with your CM12 Releases
With CM12-20141212v2 (I did a clear wipe) and no RIL Service. So I was not able to use it basically...
Today I gave it a second try CM12-20141216 . I was happy to see my 3G Connection. But when I started to download the app from Play Store. It was impossible. All APKS giving an error.
I will test Canjica Version. It's a pity but I will have to wait till we get to a stable version of Android 5.0.1 with GearCM12.
Despite of that, Thanks for your work on this! We wouldn't have this if it wasn't because of you

Heads Up
Brilliant to have 5.0 on our phones, look and feel is really cool.
Confirmed Working:
Calls, SMS, Internet (WIFI & 3G), Camera, Gallery
FC's:
Music, File manager, Play store (all google apps) & anything else which is on the SD card
Keep it up guys:good:

Application not installed?

thanks for update 12\21 @Alberto96 ...but issue with installing apk is here.

New build is coming with some fixed, especially performance related.

New build is up!
Enjoy

Info and GPL Compliance
Some small intro:
Asus never complied with GPL (despite the efforts of many people, myself included)
Asus always denied to provide the *real kernel source code, instead they provided an generic kernel that is useless, as it doesn't contained ANY driver used by this device
My Kernel, was made from *scratch, and this took some years to achieve the current state, yet, it's not completed nor perfect:
Broken:
- No cameras support ( the image sensors are highly customized by Asus), this is broken at kernel level, let alone on ROM...
- Sensors ( accelerometer & magnetometer are still kinda broken, they are registered, but don't work most of the times)
half Broken:
- WiFi : WiFi driver has also been highly customized, right now WiFi is working just fine, but with just one small bug
--> if you disconnect WiFi, and then afterwards try to connect it'll hang ( you need to reboot) FIXED since Build 20200516
- Reported battery percentage, isn't very precise , and may have sudden drops
Working:
LCM nt35521_dsi_vdo
LCM lgld070wx3_dsi_vdo
(second HW revision), support available in an seperate kernel .zip
( check F.A.Q above)
Touch (GT927)
Charging (BQ24156)
Storages
All the rest
​GPL:

Oh god. This looks amazing!
Dang that I sold mine a few years ago...
Good work!

Thanks for your efforts to make this working. Great job!
Still have one lying around here so definetly gonna try this.
If remaining problems with CM12.x are solved will there be like CM14 in the future too?
Thanks.

Funny you asked this
There's some early work already towards los 14
( Nougat)
Let's see

Thanks for work!
Yesterday I install this version on my tablet. Good side: tablet booted But after screen lock, I only can see screen backlight and sounds when I tap to a black screen, reboot helped solve this problem, but after screen lock, this problem repeated. And I can't turn on wifi

Interesting...
As I mentioned previously, this tablet came with two versions of LCM, I own two and both have the same :
"nt35521_dsi_vdo"
I can only assume your have the other LCM variant from LG "lgld070wx3_dsi_vdo"
As you can see here in kernel project configuration:
https://github.com/dragonpt/android...sus/mediatek/config/asus/ProjectConfig.mk#L49
Thanks for your provided feedback, you gave me an clue in how to possibly fix this second LCM variant, I'll look into it.
Meanwhile if you please: before your tablet went into locking, where the colors alright, any noticeable artifacts in the screen?
Thanks

Yep, I see some artifacts on the screen: screen blink and white line on the bottom of the screen
JFYI, I have RUS tablet version

If you have stock rom (or any of my AOSP roms)
you need root, install deviceinfohw app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.andr7e.deviceinfohw&hl=en_US
then on this app go to settings, allow root permissions
reload the app, and it'll show the LCM driver

What are people using for root on this? I've tried flashing Magisk (v20) but it fails in an unsupported image format when extracting the boot image.

Lineage have their own su, you can activate it on developer settings
- you can also flash latest SuperSu 2.82 (tested working)
-Magisk haves some issues with some Mediatek devices (some other mtk devices my team supports haves this issue as well)
If I recall ... only until version 14 or 16 works
( I'll confirm this later)
Cheers

I have graphic artifacts after waking up the device. in addition, tablet charging does not work. after uploading the re-stock ROM loading works

Really Weird charging is not working...
Working fine for me, (16 GB variant WW) also a user with the 16GB variant RU also confirmed this to be working
About after waking up the device I have this sometimes as well, its ESD discharge from the LCM, not something to worry about, the LCM is not perfect, needs some more tuning .
Could you tell me what LCM does your variant uses?
You just need to install an app and check .
Seems to me , there's some more model variants
( with slightly different hardware that I was aware )
Cheers

Ah, great, ok, I'll activate the provided su in settings.

WOW!
Thank you, mate, for a great job!
It was pity to realise the good device is gonna die on JB.
Looking forward for a reliable ROM.

@superdragonpt sorry for became a bit OT,
Can I use some commits from your tree for another mt6589 device that I working on it?
Thanks!

Installed rom without issue, good instructions :good:
I also get problems waking device, in fact always have to reboot. Main reason to install was to allow netflix downloads however it appears that is a deeper issue than just android version, possibly architecture. But it does allow install of kodi so positive there. Main use is entertainment device in my car during lunch break.
Also have weird keyboard issues, double key entry type android get androoid and random other key presses miles away from where my fat fingers are pressing.
Great work so far otherwise, thanks
Let me know if I can assist dev with any test or info.
Cheers

Nice rom you have the trees? i want to compile too

How to place the virtual buttons? (Solved)
I'm using my wife's smartphone for everyday use. Working very well, I did not find any bug, unless sometimes the touch stops responding and then it is necessary to press the power button to lock and unlock and return to normal. But I was already having this bug with the original rom.

Hello. thanks for the rom!!
Just a question if ever you have a solution to my problem, after i install your rom it works fine i do like it.
Just that the previous games i was playing, i cant install it from google play store and some other similar store i tried multiple times checked my connection, uninstall update, clear storage, format etc but the problem still persist ..
//Not all of my games, 2 out of 3 were unable to install to my phone
if you or anyone have a solution i will appreciate it if you share it to me, thanks in advance!!
Fixed by deleting migrate-legacy-data-obb.sh using twrp.
How?
Go to TWRP
>Advance
>File Manager
>System folder
>bin folder
>look for migrate-legacy-data-obb.sh or migrate-legacy-obb-data.sh
>Delete and reboot
If you don't see system folder, mount it first!
Credits to the telegram group, most issue fix can be found there!

All worked fine until the rom installation.
Getting an error that the rom is not compatible with a5 pro eu .
is there a rom that is compatible with a5 pro e

Thank you for the information Hadenix. As much as I would like to upgrade my umidigi a5 pro to android 11, I'm afraid that I might not make it till the end. Would it be possible to provide a step by step tutorial on how to upgrade to android 11 as I am a newbie. Hoping for your help. Thank you

Fixed by deleting migrate-legacy-data-obb.sh using twrp.
How?
Go to TWRP
>Advance
>File Manager
>System folder
>bin folder
>look for migrate-legacy-data-obb.sh or migrate-legacy-obb-data.sh
>Delete and reboot
If you don't see system folder, mount it first!

How to place the virtual buttons? (Solved)
I'm using my wife's smartphone for everyday use. Working very well, I did not find any bug, unless sometimes the touch stops responding and then it is necessary to press the power button to lock and unlock and return to normal. But I was already having this bug with the original rom.

i have the same problem, my touchscreen goes unresponsive often and i have to tap power button twice to make it react ... how did you solve it?

The year is 2082. Society as we know it has collapsed and the world is but a nuclear wasteland. I haven't seen or talked to another human in weeks. Food is scarce and shelter is hard to come by... But life lingers on, even if just for a while longer, nature tries to heal itself with the little sunlight that manages to reach the ground through the dense clouds of soot. Last night I heard screams coming from the forest of dead pine trees, east of the abandoned glass factory. I'm not sure if they were human screams or the calls of an alternate, but I'm not eager to find out... I must hurry and head north, this place is no longer safe. To add insult to injury, I broke my only weapon while I was trying to cut down a few tree branches to light a fire... until I find materials to fix it, my possessions are my pet dog Alex, an half eaten can of beans and my ME173X running Android 69 with the latest security updates.

I'm waiting for the continuation and publication of this work in the form of a book.

Haha
This made my day
Cheers

This is great! Thank you so much! I never expected so much support for this tablet...
Unfortunately, I really need GPS so I have to wait for another build...

Thank you very much for providing builds for this tablet! The 13 build really helped us a lot, as our 2-year-old could watch downloaded Peppa Pig episodes from Netflix during long vacation drives. Although I did had to download a previous major version of the Netflix APK to get it to work on Android 6.
As this version doesn't have Widevine DRM, Netflix won't work, I guess. The current version of Netflix from the app store needs at least Android 7, so it would be nice if this new build would also support that in the future. Is it possible to flash that somehow, or would you need to compile that during build-time? If so, it that planned, or are there any technical difficulties regarding that?

First of all: thank you so much for giving us Andoid 7 for this old thing!
I just found out that Adaway won't install from F-Droid:
Error installing AdAway
Parsing apk file failed! Maybe minSdk of apk is lower than current Sdk? Look into logcat for more specific warnings of Android's PackageParser.

My observations of LG kernel up to 20220911
- battery charging VERY slow
- rotation sensor not working
- camera not working
- fast stock, slow with GAPPS
Maybe these are already on the todo list. Great to have A7 on this still usable tablet.
Cheers

hi
rotation sensor not working :
Yeah this is stated on the "not working" status " > Sensors: accelerometer (autorotation)"
I could never fixed this sensor on my kernel
battery charging VERY slow
The device can be very picky with chargers, with the stock charger it can charge up to 1.2 AMP @ 5v
fast stock, slow with GAPPS
Yeah GAPPS really have an huge impact on devices, it runs really smooth without GAPPS installed
Google sucks
camera not working
This is very nice report ( Thanks ) every single user that reported me the front camera isn't working has an device with the LG screen...
I just bought my third ASUS ME173X and got it yesterday ( since my kid broke the second one .. )
unfortunately all my tablets have the same nt35521 Screen ( really hopping to grab an LG variant ) for testing :/
cheers

How can I find out, what screen our tablet has?

Plz help! I can't root this rom, can you give a manual or something? I've tryed everything

sus ඞ
This is with the tablet plugged into the wall 24/7, sometimes it gets tired and stops charging
Don't mind the second pic, that's just it being used as a wireless monitor

You need to be running any of stock firmware with root rights.
There's many apps that facilitate the task like "deviceinfohw" , give the app root on settings, and on the main page it'll show you what LCM you device has.

It's mandatory to be on the latest miui a11 official firmware of your region
Clean flash recommended
Always make a nandroid backup, be safe.
ROM uses O.S.S. vendor
* For those who don't want encryption, no need to flash any dfe zip as rom is already decrypted by default so please dont flash any dfe zips
* If users were encrypted on their previous roms they need to FORMAT DATA in recovery first
its FORMAT and not WIPE understand the difference, if you dont format data the rom will bootloop as you have previous rom encryption.

* For those who want to use rom with encryption
This rom comes with FBE V1 encryption so those who have come from fbe v2 roms need to compulsory FORMAT DATA else it will bootloop due to fbe version mismatch.
As decryption of internal storage is now fixed on a12 you will need different recovery to flash the rom and only this recovery can encrypt/decrypt rom, other recovery wont work.
Special thanks to @Pranav Talmale for making a12 decryption work with FBE v1 all credits goes to him for the recovery
- Clean flash recommended
- Use Ofox recovey with a13 decryption fixed from here

Thanks for the wonderful rom @Pranav Temkar
This is the best A13 rom so far, fluid, battery friendly.
I've just found a couple of bugs (not real bugs).
Vibration icon is not there on statusbar lockscreen, but it's showing on home screen. Also alarm icon is not there on homescreen nor on lockscreen, nomatter if you enable it or disable it...
And please make earspeaker more louder in calls...
Thanks again, keep up the good work!

They're not bugs but google features. On some other a13 roms you have the option to make vibrate & alarm icons always visible.

I think that in Nik site you have a slight explanation, anyway Nik core is/has the same things as MTG lite.

Thanks for the wonderful rom @Pranav Temkar
This is the best A13 rom so far, fluid, battery friendly.
I've just found a couple of bugs (not real bugs).
Vibration icon is not there on statusbar lockscreen, but it's showing on home screen. Also alarm icon is not there on homescreen nor on lockscreen, nomatter if you enable it or disable it...
And please make earspeaker more louder in calls...
Thanks again, keep up the good work!

Earpiece sound is adequate i dont feel to increase, maybe its your side issue, others might be aosp side bugs not sure, lets see if they can be fixed or not, no promises

This is android 13 your android 12 mtg wont even flash, read before flashing any package. I just confirmed it flashes without any issues if you use proper zip which is for a13
