FINAL Post From TKruzze Regarding PA GApps

Frankly, I’m a bit overwhelmed by much of the anger and resentment being shown to me on XDA for the manner in which I chose to stop supporting my GApps packages. My intentions were to make a clean break, NOT to “take my toys and go home”. I am very disturbed by the notion that there was any obligation for me to leave on anything but my own terms. That was also the driving force behind my decision early on not to accept or ask for donations.
From the very beginning, the major premise behind PA GApps was to provide current up-to-date GApps packages with customization features. I believed that leaving behind outdated work that would “live forever” (with my name on it) would be totally counter-productive to what we had set out to accomplish. This was the driving force in my decision to pull the packages when I closed my threads.
That said, as a gesture of good faith, I am posting links to the most recent builds of my GApps packages. I am also making available the OP posts from my threads in case anyone wishes to continue my work. With this, I am also hereby granting approval for anyone who may wish to continue my work here on XDA. My only caveat is that I will NOT be making myself available for assistance with any questions or problems you may encounter. I have turned off PM’s so I won’t be reachable, anyway.
The links below will remain active until March 31, 2015 and then, once again, they will be removed. That should provide sufficient time for interested persons to gather anything they may want for the future. Feel free to share the links or create your own mirrors.
4.4.4 GApps Packages

Thank you for all your hard work and for posting these, goodluck with whatever you do next!

Thank you! I really apperciate all the work you have done for this community! :good:

About Carbon
CarbonRom is an aftermarket firmware based on the Android Open Source Project. We are dedicated to fast, stable, and feature-filled roms, honesty and communication with our users, and openness with our code. We like frequent builds, with the very latest and greatest hardware support and fixes. We strive to not only provide you with the best rom we can build, but also to give back to the Android community and our fellow developers. For us, this is about creating something we can be proud of and hope you will enjoy.
Please feel free to look at, build, and use our code on CarbonDev GitHub. and on our Gerrit CarbonDev Gerrit.
We would like to thank CyanogenMod for their device trees, framework/settings mods and their code that was incorporated into this project. We also extend our gratitude to the devs whose code that we have incorporated. Proper authorship has been maintained whenever possible and can be viewed on our repository.
Special thanks also go to Slim Rom for some of their features, PA, AOKP, and anyone else we may have borrowed commits from that hasn't been mentioned here. If you feel you have been unfairly left out, please - let us know.
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, family, pets, or perception of reality. We ask that you do your part to know your device and know how to recover from problems before you flash! If you have questions, ask your fellow users or ask us in #teamcarbon on freenode IRC.

Support
We spend an astonishing amount of time developing this software. We can't spend much time on XDA as a result, so if you need support, please try the following:
1) Search. Search, search, search. Yes, you. I don't care how unique or important your question is, it's very likely someone has adressed it already. Especially if you're even close to new at this.
2) Read our FAQ, which can be found on our website. Carbon FAQ
3) Ask a question in your device forum. Someone will no doubt try to help you. Warning: this help may come in the form of telling you it's a dumb question that has been asked before. See step 1 - such are the perils of asking questions when you haven't done the research yourself. Android is about helping yourself.
4) Ask a question on our IRC channel. Connect to #teamcarbon on irc.freenode.net or click here. You'll find several other Carbon fans and usually one or more devs as well. Please be polite.

Screenrecording locks up device. ( do not use )
Moving apps to SD does not work. Reports "not enough space" or something similar. FIXED! see here
OTG Host mode only works once per boot.
If GApps are not flashed there is a ramdom reboot issue due to issue with gps blog. Not an issue as long as you flash GApps.
Setting a govenor via "PerformanceControl" may not work due to "Usecase" control.
Offline Charger options via "Extras" do not work.
Root is disabled by default. Some options in "Extras" and "Performance" depend on root. Enable in "Developer Options"

Thanks for all your work.
Good to see you back at it on the T599.
Tried you latest. Seems to work quite well.
Thanks again.

WOWWW you are back! I thought this phone was already forgotten. Let me try this on my old t599n with stock laggy tw 4.1.2 with internal memory for only 2 or 3 apps.
Can't wait for MM rom.
Great work and welcome back!!
Update: Hi @Meticulus , I am using this rom and I like it. I got just some little issues:
First: Is the Carbon sources updated? I ask this because i see in my language (portuguese) there are lot of words not translated (when i was on cm 12.1 in my s5 didnt face this issue), i see that the security patch is November 2015 (a bit old no?)
Second: I don't know why but i can't install facebook... it took like 5 minutes to install and then it fails with error -504 on playstore
BTW great work man, I really wanna try your CM 13 on this machine
Keep it up

If anyone is reading this, I've noticed http://www.meticulus.co.vu is down (probably for years). Is there any way to obtain the 5.11 Carbon ROM ? I have two old T599N devices that I want to "resurrect/upgrade". I've googled a lot but could not find any download links for the 5.1.1 Carbon ROM created by Meticulus for this device. I also tried searching for this in DC hubs but without success. Thank you!

Cyanogenmod 13.1 for Axon 7... When?

Checklist of Things to Do w/ Axon 7
1. Unlock Bootloader - DONE
2. Flash TWRP - DONE
3. Get Root Access, along with Root apps - DONE
4. Flash Cyanogenmod 13.1 - PENDING
Who is interested in seeing Cyanogenmod 13.1 running on the ZTE Axon 7 as much as I am? If so, please post on this thread. Hopefully, the right people will check this out and get the ball rolling on this project.

Why don't you build it ? ?
We are never happy ... let the devs work ... on the other hand they have a life and bills to pay !

like tupirujp says.
If you want your question answered just contact Cyanogen directly.

***Thread Cleaned*** (removed negative, counterproductive comments/quotes, for a fresh start)
Some concerned users brought this thread to the attention of Moderation staff.
A good practice is to have the dev needing the device (Unjustified Dev) set up their own donation link, express their desire to dev for the device, and put out a little description of the work they intend to do for that device (ie; unlock bootloader, Roms , Kernels, etc)...
Otherwise, third party donation links usually only raise suspicion, mistrust, and rarely accomplish the goal of helping the dev get a device.
I applaud those who want to support developers (they certainly deserve the support), let's make sure we do it in a way that isn't counterproductive to the goal or the donation process.
Thanks for your cooperation.

Well, in order to build a rom you need:
Device Tree
Kernel
Vendor/Proprietary files
We have versions of the first two already loaded on GitHub. It's a (hard) matter of someone figuring out what proprietary files we need and then going through the iterative testing to ensure all the hardware components are working. So, let the devs have time with the phone to see what they can figure out and we'll start seeing development.

Please Cyanogenmod come to this device..
