[ROM] Unofficial CyanogenMod 9 [BLECM9 0.02]

Current status: CM10.1 in the works and this version will not be updated.
Got started with the project in January, I'm now ready to present you my first custom ROM (and kernel) - BLECM9!
First of all - BACKUP! This is not stable for everyday use just yet.
It also includes my own kernel, based on the latest CAF source code (ics_chocolate). The kernel gets frequent updates from CAF and me. Kernel version is 3.0.8. It's not as stable in the beginning but a better choice in the long term.
It won't include Google Apps, you need to manually install gapps package, as any other CM rom is by default.
Prequisites
U8800 upgraded to 2.3
ClockworkMod Recovery v5.5.0.4, not tested in v5.0.2.7
Instructions for Installing
Download the latest version of BLECM9 (Downloads below).
Copy the package to your internal/external SD card.
Reboot to recovery.
Flash the update package.
Optional: Install Gapps package (Downloads below).
Reboot and wait. The first boot takes around 2 minutes.

Additional Notes
Report issues.
Changelog.
No, this won't work on U8800-51 or U8800Pro.
Atmel TS users, 0.02 will not work for you. I am establishing a new driver, to make the driver standard. Please standby as this is my top priority.
Everybody, send me logs if something does not work. This kernel is under heavy development. On computer with ADB set up: "adb shell dmesg > dmesg.log" and send the dmesg.log
Major Bugs
No Atmel TS support.
RIL issues (does not detect all SIMs)
NT35510 seems to have issues when turning on the screen (confirm?)
Unstable backlight on low values.
Wifi MAC address is 00:11:22:33:44:55
No Camera.
No Bluetooth.
No FM radio.
No audio (except ringtone/alarm)
Sometimes glitchy hardware acceleration.
No sensors.

2nd edit: common cm problem... error while searching for network

Thanks for sharing.Looks good.

Been waiting for this. I will try it asap. I'm sure it will be get better day by day. Many thanks.

First of all Thank you!
First Impressions:
Touchscreen feels really responsive.
Rom feels very fast too.
Wifi is working good.
Bugs that I've found:
Screen flickering (unstable backlight)
Can't mount SDCard.
RIL isn't working on my u8800.
Overall it looks very promising!
Logs attached.

Yes, It's related to HW acceleration, causing some UI glitches.

Have been waiting for this for a long time, even if can't even use it because of Amtel TS.
Keep up with this awesome work

Thanks for this!
I'm using b518 and my phone is multibooting.My phone has recovery made by VICTOR TEAM (genokolar) .This ROM can be a problem for me in terms of Multiboot?Because you writed this in changelog;

Great! Been waiting for CM9 a long time ago too... Blefish, you should post some rules as to what we should and how to post in this thread, maybe instructions on how to post specific logs and what kind of info you need. The rest of the discussion should be posted in the general section. I would really hate for this thread to become a mess like Aurora's...

I flashed 0.02, touchscreen didn't work. Then flashed Atmel-test2, touchscreen still doesn't work. Also phone reboots randomly.

I suggest to all of you interested helping Blefish, follow him on Twitter.
For those who tried Atmel-test-2-signed.zip

Despite English is not my native language I usually spell and construct grammatically as best I can to avoid misunderstanding. Sorry if that single word offended you.
Also sorry for not including fancy words like dude, bro, man, guys, lol, rofl or more of this kind.
In respect of the person who is addressed I will not fall to the level of calling anyone dude, bro, man or guys when male/female is unknown.

Dear OP, I would like to know the latest status of this ROM though it has only been posted a few days ago. Do you have any plan on releasing new updates for this ROM in the nearest time? Thanks.

Thanks for this ROM. It works like a charm for an early build and I'm expecting the next updates will be better. Good job to OP and everyone that worked together. Just to report that NFC isn't working but I hardly see it as a problem since I never use it anyway.
EDIT - Enabled ROOT from the Developers Option but how do I get SuperSU works here? Or do I even need one? Thanks

I never used nfc personally too , but I will work on it the next build , if you want SuperSu from chainfire simply the supersu zip from recovery(make sure you have enable root from developer options)

Tested first alpha version.
* MP3 ring tones not working, (same issue for 1101, 2501, 2701, 3001 and now 3101 official, Unofficial )
Really strange :-/

Another issue that I just found is the Camera sometimes unresponsive and Unable to connect the camera message popped up. Thanks

@ mauk - I've had a run in with @O-T before - It seems to be a serial offender when it comes to flaming people - There are only so many times that you can use the excuse of something not being your native language. @ O-T The sensible way would be to ask someone who has english as a first language to read you posts first.... that way any unpleasantness can be avoided - If you want to PM me your posts I'll check them over. As for being called dude - as far as I'm aware it can be non gender specific term - so no offence caused there!

Thanks for the sharing! But I'm gonna wait for the OP to fix this issue in the future build.

CM13 for LG-G3, test builds out already

I was sleepily clicking around last night and came across cuzz1369's AFH dump, containing Cyanogenmod13 builds for our G3 variants. Im psyched things are actively being worked on.
Heres the link..
because everyone will want to ask; flashing this, I cant boot past the optimizing dalvik screen (tried on another phone), maybe its the gapps, Im not sure. Flashing back 12 any 5.1 rom (or nandroid backup) went without a hitch.
I am not really a hardcore developer, and I hope I am not breaking any rules by sharing this information. If This post doesnt belong here please let me know, or MOD take care of it then let me know. Im just a long time lurker, getting excited, I hope this is the right place for discussion
cuzz1369 thank-you
:highfive:

I't works decent, sound wifi, data worked. But i couldn't use facebook, so a whole lot of FC.

Here is a build from the official cyanogenmod maintainer for the LG G3 (d855). He says the most is working but the camera and the gaaps at this time does not work. So it is an experimental Version.

There are already newer builds with working camera.
So far I think I tried most things in the last two hours, and all is working

Can you get facebook to work?

I don't know. I don't use Facebook )
But for now I reverted back to android 5, because in cm13 there are still some fc of system ui and other graphical problems and I need an reliable phone for work.
But I think I will put it again in an month or so

Yes.

Most everything works on VS985 on the cuzz 11/9 build. Baseband is unknown, and you can't change the network type off of global, but data works fine. Messaging works but I didn't try to make a call to see if everything is good on that end. It's pretty good for a "test" build.

None of the varients are confirmed working for d851. Even his versions
Few devs commented on if on a thread I made

New batch of cm13 d851 boots!!!! no ls990 yet...

Did someone test this latest version already? I'm really curious...

Does the D851 even have a CM maintainer anymore? CM12 or 13?
Or do we just tag on to the D855?

There is a new LS990 build posted, downloading it now. Gonna give her a spin and see how it goes.
I got stuck at the Android is updating screen. It took about 5 minutes to get past the boot animation. I wiped Dalvic, cache, system and data. Then tried flashing the ROM only then 2 different sets of Gapps and still got stuck. Maybe I'll try again later when I have some more time.

Oh This CM13 build is work great with my D855.

I recommend you go to their Google+ page, they do not want any of their roms discussed or passed along on XDA any longer.
Below is a link in case you can not Google it, read carefully before adding questions. I would recommend the 10.5 Official as their most stable, the 11 has been released but has a few things to still work out. If you try the 11 stays with Dynamic gapps, if you go with the MM version Open is fine.

Sorry, no I do not know of any details, just that they are done dealing with XDA.

While not sure if this happened to DU but I do know that for awhile mods and admins here in some areas were allowing people to take credit for work they did not do with no repercussions. A number of Devs got very angry when little jerks were taking their work and renaming Roms and using tools they had built without giving credit. This blew up into a big tiff and a number of very good devs left XDA and even some major project players like DU left and have not been back. I have no idea why this was allowed to transpire but it was ugly for about a year. I suspect there were other behind the scenes issues that I as a non dev was not aware of as well.

Oreo new build

Just tried to install fresh Oreo build, guess what it didn't boot. Nazmul Hasan built it, got passed mi logo then grey screen, that's where it stayed, he's asking for someone to take logcat, any one up for it? He's on telegram now.

That guy has been posting Oreo (Lineage 15.x) builds to his Android File Host page since the summer. None of them boot. Their last one was a month ago, here. Spoiler - it doesn't work either.
Good on them for at least trying all the same. What's odd is that they've builds for several different ROMs (Mokee/AOKP/Paranoid Android), so I assume they must own a Mix (or did at one point), but they've never submitted any here to my knowledge. Maybe they're just playing around building ROMs, but then why upload them if they don't work, unless they don't own a Mix and they're just building/uploading for others to try.
What's much more concerning is that ~15 months into the life of this device and we're basically reduced to 2 active non-MIUI ROMs. We'll probably still have Lineage builds for a while yet since it's basically the standard for custom ROMs but how long will AICP live (which I much prefer to Lineage)? Then again, maybe once Lineage 15.1 drops and we start getting Oreo ROMs it might spark some more devs into life.

Someone on telegram has gone past the first problem, although there are plenty more to work on before a bootable ROM will be done.

This person has tried hard and compiled more than 30 builds as a test. None of them were booting. He moved on.

I'm about to start compiling a build using the latest Lineage 15.1 sources and Mix blobs. If it doesn't work I'll probably give up too. I can't imagine trying 30 builds.
The sheer time involved is enough to put anyone off (1-2 hours to fetch the repo/sync, then much the same to build for the first time). That's not even counting the hours taken to backup the entire data partition (and then copy it back) since this is going to require a wipe of that whole partition, or the fact that it ties up your PC for much of the sync/build period.
EDIT: Finally got it to build. Flashed it with GApps. Expected it to just sit at the MI.COM logo like every other build I'd flashed but it actually got past it after a minute or so. At the bit where the Lineage logo normally kicks in, the screen flashed a few times then went black. After about another minute it booted back into recovery. I actually thought it was going to work once it got past the logo, but no. Looks like it's a bust. I attached the dmesg.log from TWRP if anyone wants to take a peek.

I'd build Oreo myself if the Mix wasn't my main phone right now... I just can't afford having downtimes where I can't be reached by my coworkers or customers.
Maybe if I ever move on to a new phone I'll tackle it.
