LiquidSmooth is an aftermarket firmware based on the Android Open Source Project.
Dedicated to providing users with smooth, stable and fast ROMs. A Lightweight modified AOSP base, and then add the features you crave!
While we make every effort to test these builds as much as possible, we are not responsible for anything that may happen to your device.
We ask that you do your part to know your device and know how to recover from problems before you flash!
DONT FORGET THIS BEFORE YOU POST A QUESTION:
Install Instructions:
Quote:
First time installing LiquidSmooth to your LG G2 (All Variants), or coming from another ROM:
- Make sure you're running latest Recovery (I personally use TWRP)
- Copy GApps and Liquid ZIP to your internal SDCard
- Boot into Recovery
- Wipe Data / Factory Reset
- Wipe Cache & Dalvik Cache
- Flash Liquid zip from internal SDCard
- Flash GApps zip from internal SDCard
- Reboot
- Restoring Apps + Data might cause problems and is not recommended, avoid it if possible

In the form of a question now!

Thank you for taking time to make this thread - just a heads up, i flashed the updated qualcomm drivers binaries from N5 forums to LS and they work beautifully. Feels much more smooth than before !
Namaste! Sent from Orion Galaxy.

Also, the OnePlus One Dalvik (mahdi-slimkat) and OnePlus One Bionic libs from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2537299 work too, if anyone's curious.

Thanks @SREEPRAJAY for creating this thread...ill add the link to rom OP

Does anyone know what kind of custom animation does this rom support? I tried using the CM10 default bootanimation but it shows up entirely black.

It should support any boot animation as long as the resolution is 1080x1920 and the permissions are set to rw-r-r-. What folder did you put it in?

Ah, my bad, it was for my older phone which was 1280x720, good point.
I have another question, has anyone managed to get poweramp and viper audio working?

Yeah I do. Poweramp takes some trickery though. You have to go into Audio -> Advanced Tweaks and uncheck Direct volume control, and BT Direct Volume Control. I also check MusicFX. Normally with other ROMs I have to do that and then enable the switch in the Tone/Volume screen, but that switch doesn't appear on Liquid so you may not need to check that box.

Then plug in your headphones. That seems to kick start Poweramp/Viper. In Viper settings you may have to disable and renable it. Then it should process everywhere until a reboot. Then you gotta do the headphones thing again.

The headphones part did it for me, thanks a lot!
Any idea how to get this fixed? Who and how should we report it to?

@REV3NT3CH is working to fix Viper for good in the next version.
Sent from Orion! Namaste!

The PowerAmp/Viper thing has been like that forever on Mahdi too, ever since we went to the 4.4 kernel. If @REV3NT3CH can fix it, that would be awesome.

What variant do you have? And where did the modem come from? Most ROMs now need the stock modem. The actual one that came with the OTAs. If you're using one from dr87's thread that were patched to fix rotation, they won't work.

D802 Okhey thanks, I was convinced I was using the correct modem. I have download and install the one from Cloudyfa and its working perfectly. [emoji5]

i too have got v4a working with @JRJ442 's method on latest build...though the install part is much easier than before and standard audio across the board seems fixed...im still aiming at fixing v4a for good as its one of the best feautures built into the rom and greatest mods in android history when it works proper

Changelogs
Feb 24th 2015
- Initial beta released.
- Please read entire OP
- This update required a full wipe if you coming from a different ROM
- NH3 is REQUIRED, Do not report any bugs, if your not on NH3
- Enjoy, Stay tune for incoming updates and full changelogs can be found HERE

Thank you for this. It's about d**n time this phone had an AOSP rom. I wish I could provide some actually useful feedback but everything I need is working smoothly so far, no problems to report. This is seriously phenomenal work :good:
If I can provide one tiny, insignificant, nit-picky critique, in the OP you link to the update zip for SuperSU v2.01 but the most current one is SuperSU v2.46. And if anyone is skeptical or hesitant, I successfully used the v2.46 version of the SuperSU update zip when I flashed this rom. It's just one less update/installation for the Play Store to worry about when the rom first starts downloading all your apps for you. Just a thought

One key point that let this work for me:
Make sure safestrap 3.75 is being used: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56119330&postcount=336

Can you confirm for me if there are any buzzing sounds while playing music on this rom with headphones plugged in. I had bad experiences with Spotify, Poweramp, and Google Play Music with Joe Tech's rom and was wondering if anyone else had these problems.

Was using PureNexus before and now the NH3 SuperNexus. Play music through it everyday and have yet to hear a buzz or audio defect. Mostly use Google Play Music but did use the Poweramp demo.

I hear the occasional audio defect. Not often enough to bug me. I always listened through Spotify. Youtube, I can't recall any.

Using neutron music player, apollo and Google music, didn't get any buzz or weird sound.

Can I flash this on the 9295?

No, as stated in the OP this is for the i537. Since you have the i9295 you should use a ROM meant for your phone.

At my own risk tried some xposed modules, all good so far.

How's the battery life been? Good enough for a daily driver?

e11a8bef5801c7160a91f4c313b8ba2141df5b07 SimplerStockv1.1.zip
Post-Install
For root, flash SuperSU or su of your choice.
For Play Store, flash openGapps for ARM 5.0.
For Xposed, use arter97's here. Select xposed-v75-sdk21-arm-arter97-exynos_requestConcurrentGC.zip
To remove the S-Finder bar, or 4 way reboot menu, consider installing Wanam Xposed.
Some features such as Task Manager and Ultra Power Saving Mode doesn't work anymore since the required files were removed. This is not a big deal, since most power user will not depend on those, or have better alternatives.
Screenshots
It's just a smaller Stock ROM, so yea...

Have been using this since its release. Nearly 500MB of free RAM on idle compared to the next closest de-bloated ROM. Anticipating gallery nags picassa by replacing it with another gallery app, as well as replacing default home and keyboard with lightest substitutes around (mine are Mini Desktop/ap15 Launcher and Multiling O Keyboard). GApps were replaced by Pico OpenGApps without any problem. Iron kernel also works seamlessly on this. A minor glitch (edited: even on stock kernel) is VOIP on WhatsApp, the other party sounded loud and clear but my voice was muted on the other end. Thanks @iddeen

It could be one of those isolated VOIP bugs. I've checked my mic on regular phone call and it worked fine, but I haven't tried other VOIP services.
I assume you haven't uploaded the 1.1. version, because I didn't see any file on the owncloud link and a similarly dated and sized file on the xda link.

I guess it does. The setting is there, but I didn't bother to try, coz I never use it.

Can't use playstore plz help, already flash pico 5.0

Dear @iddeen , it is perfectly working for me ... but I am looking for a version, where I can set the screen dpi to420
I can do it on the AOSP -schischu- roms .. unfortunately they have issues I do not like: audio, battery, glitches ..
do you know the solutin?
thanks

No solution for total dpi increase. I done it on note 5 and work perfect. But on t70x on 5 and unfortunately android 6 got few app among main fc. So as I know you must work with xposed module app settings which eork perfect but ui is somehow inconsistent and needs bigger work..

@iddeen Rom is very good, best I seen for t705 in twz category...
Now t705 official 6.0.1 is out!!!
I hope you will make same rom. thanks
Also have few remarks for current version, to maybe more improve:
1. using app settings module, I got bigger doi on all needed apps, is there any way now to delete somehow middle line on some apps (settings, sms, file manager...) and get more natural (phone) layout on this bigger dpi. And less important, which app is android installer: I got bigger dpi on many apps, but when installing some new one it is terrible small (of course it is not important as installing is very rare, just curious)
2. debloat is done great- just few ideas:
a) you can delete live wallpappers and additional fonts
b) not sure here- maybe all tests (or some) bluetooth, camera, device...etc can be deleted without problem; and stock browser..
c) you left exchange service and deleted e- mail, suggest to leave better both (or delete both)...
And most important please continue with this rom work on 6.0.1!

Error: THIS PACKAGE IS FOR KLIMTLTE AND THIS IS A KLIMWIFI. What seems to be the problem?

Is it possible to update this to marshmallow?

Can you please update a T700 MM version?

[ROM][UNOFFICIAL] CM 13 + AOSP kernel for amami [2016-10-07]

I managed to build CM 13 for this device. I'll make my builds available here and try to update regularly. I take no dev credit, I'm just a builder.
I build straight from the Cyanogenmod source on Github, minus the kernel, which comes from the Sony AOSP project.
Thanks especially to derf elot for the build manifest and the CyanogenMod, FreeXperia, and Sony AOSP contributors.

Known Issues
AudioFX crashes constantly
Charging battery not always reflected in UI
Fullscreen video playback sometimes results in black screen
FM radio nonfunctional
Misc Info
Motivation: Most of the AOSP and other MM ROMs for this device have some deal-breaking bug for me, such as sleep of death or echoes when making phone calls, with the exception of the pure CM 13 ROMs. However, nobody's built one in some time, so I figured I'd give it a shot.

Misc Info
Motivation: Most of the AOSP and other MM ROMs for this device have some deal-breaking bug for me, such as sleep of death or echoes when making phone calls, with the exception of the pure CM 13 ROMs. However, nobody's built one in some time, so I figured I'd give it a shot.
Patches: Most of the code was ready to build as is. I ran into one problem: the 3.10 kernel's device tree lacks some Qualcomm-specific board information, so boot.img fails to build. I copied it from the CM 12 branch and all was well. Patch against CyanogenMod/kernel_sony_msm: View attachment 3872045

Very cool. I am guessing no call echo here? That was always annoying. How is the camera (especially in the dark)?

Nope, no call echo, as long as you don't turn the volume too high. That ruled out all of the AOSP ROMs for me; have to be able to use my phone as a phone. Camera is exactly like the other CM-based ROMs, focus is kinda inaccurate, and video recording doesn't work. I haven't tried any low-light photos but I suspect they won't be very good.

So far, one of the best mm roms vor now.
But Designs for me Designs don't work. Anybody the same bug ?

Oh, the theme engine is working fine on my device. Did you clean flash? Check the md5sum?

@SouthernPacific it seems like @SpiritCroc found a way to fix AudioFX crashes

Oh, I see. I'm not much of a developer, though; I just wanted some more regular CM 13 builds. I may look into patching this change in but for now, disabling the app is a good enough workaround for me, and I'm not interested in starting my own branch of CM.
Out of curiosity, how do you find the ROM so far?

TBH I'm on stock since last month (nothing can beat its battery life) and I'm waiting for Nougat to be stable enough for z1c to test it out

Tried it out yesterday. Very nice. I hadn't seen the new Themer in other roms before. I like it. Still holding out hope that someone can do something about CM camera issues.

New 9/27 build is up, now using the kernel from sonyxperiadev instead of the slightly outdated CM kernel on Github. From the commit log, there are some minor performance enhancements, but nothing too groundbreaking.
As far as the camera is concerned, this is as good as it's going to get.

deleted. sorry, wrong post

Used it for a day. Performance wise the best MM rom i've tried so far, the only real lag-free MM rom.
But as a price the camera is pretty much completely broken or has horrible (50$ smartphone front camera) quality on the backface camera...
I flashed everything clean twice, no idea why this happens.
I'm going back to official CM12.1 and try to get the best out of my Z1C as a daily driver, but it's nice to see people putting effort into building more MM/CM13 roms =)

Yeah, it's a shame about the camera. Unfortunately, it's on Sony to provide better MM binary blobs. There were some new binaries released back in June, but they completely break the Z1C's camera (see the latest FreeXperia builds).
After so much talk about Sony being open to development, it kinda stinks to be left to hang like this.

@SouthernPacific - I'm curious about theme manager on your rom. Is it the CynaogenOS themer? I've found a flashable zip for Cynaogen apps, (to run on non-CyanogenOS CM roms), but I was wondering about a way to use that theme manager on a non-CM rom. I tried using addon.d and permissions files from the zip, but app still fc. Think it's possible?

I don't know much about it, to be honest. It's just built when you build any CM 13 ROM.
I would imagine it's a lot more complicated than installing the apk, though - the UI code needs some pretty deep hooks to be modifiable like that. Maybe just use another engine, possibly with Xposed?

The battery seems good, you can perfectly use your phone a day. Small story, I was listening music 30 to 40 minutes without losing a percent. However, I will add some tweak on the next build.

Yes the Wi-Fi seems have some issues, but it's works. Did it work or not at all. The issue is that the WI-FI didn't received to much signal. It's still received 2MO or less it's depends on your internet connection.
Moreover thanks for all support and your comments

The SIM issue is provided by the keyboard issue. After using your keyboard, press the button back, to prevent this issue. If the SiM card have an issue, restart your device. I will try to fix next week I think I have some work this week. Sorry.

Thank you mate! i appreciate your effort. wish you patch more and more good roms. thank you

Kumar, do you plan MIUI 8 ROM based on latest Nougat 7.1.1 sources?
And in which time interval should we expect that.
Thank you for your patience and time.
