Support

F.A.Q

Q. I have faced some issues, which is not mentioned in the 'Not Working' list........?
A. For bug reports, the least we can expect from you is a logcat taken during the issue. Or atleast, you could tell us how and when did you face the bug, how can we reproduce the bug to fix it. Reports without any of these will be ignored.

Q. I got a status 7 error when flashing the CM11 zip...? / My device is stuck at boot logo after flashing CM11...?
A. Please use the recovery that is mentioned in the downloads section. It is recommended to use TWRP as it is known working for all.

Q. I put the ROM zip in internal memory while I was in stock ROM, but when I go to TWRP and try to flash it, the zip is not there, help!
A. TWRP uses psych.half's storage hack that he did in CM10.1. You will need to mount /data (its generally done by default), and then go to /data/media and there you can find the zip.

Q. I successfully flashed CM11, but all my data in internal memory is gone!
A. It hasn't, you can still find them in /data/media.

Q. Can you add XYZ feature to the ROM?
A. No!

Q. Can I use your ROM/any part of ROM and modify it and release it separately?
A. Yes you can. But please mention proper credits.

Q. I flashed this ROM, but I dont find any Google App, where can I find it?
A. Flash gapps mentioned in OP.

Q. Are any 3rd party utilities/kernels/themes/mods supported?
A. No, not yet. If they are supported, it will be clearly mentioned in their respective threads.

Q. If no mods are supported, how can we customize our experience?
A. This is CyanogenMod, a completely different ROM from stock. As of now, no kernels are supported, but you can customize the looks using CM11's highly customizable theme engine.

Bug reporting
How to report a bug?
  • First off all, check the 'not working' list and see if the bug you are facing is already mentioned or not. If it is, stop right away because the concerned people working on the ROM are aware of the issue.
  • If the bug/issue is not mentioned in 'not working' list, check the Frequently Asked Question (F.A.Q) and see if issue is resolved already.
  • If the issue you face is not in FAQ either, you would probably post a reply in this forum, and not PM anyone, about the bug.
    • Attach a logcat.
    • If not possible, mention a proper way how you encountered the bug.
    • Also mention any 3rd party stuff you installed. (Like mods, themes, kernels etc)

Following things WILL NOT be considered as bugs. So please do not post such bug reports, they will be ignored.
  • Low benchmark scores. Even if Stock results better.
  • Poor performance in gaming. Even if Stock results better.
  • High RAM usage/low RAM available.
  • Various kernel control app crashes.
  • Crashes of various UI elements when a custom theme/mod is applied.
  • Random reboots, and other issues caused by flashing custom kernel.

Status Update

We have been working, and... :
  • Audio -Its fixed, both audio from speakers and headphones.
  • HWComposer -Its fixed too, patches to libbinder worked.
  • Camera - Umm, its broken. Problem is, I expected Camera to be fixed by patching libbinder, but it didn't, camera HAL was not loading at all. I eventually got the HAL to load, but it would then cause various system instabilities, so its still broken.
  • Microphone - Well, microphone does listen to when any respective app is started, but won't record anything (unlike last time, where it won't listen and start recording at all).
  • RIL - Well, that's really a tough one to fix.
  • Random Reboots and Freezes - Random reboots are gone, but freezes (caused due to EGL issues) still persists.

P.S : Sources are constantly being updated, patches will only be released after a next release is made. As of the current released build (Alpha 1), not much patches are used, except for those which are mentioned in the device tree.

Alpha 2 is up

-Camera HAL included is new one compiled from source (BETA version, some more features than the stock HAL).

-Updated blobs.

Download updated in OP
This build is intended to see how our phone runs kitkat, explore kitkat's new features (if you haven't already), in a decent, less-annoying way. This is not intended for daily use.

About RIL?
That's all I get. We have fixed baseband too, but not included in this release.

Perks of the new camera HAL?
Well, camera might not be fully functional, but that is not because of the new HAL being used, things are same even with stock HAL. This HAL works perfectly with CM10.1. Only bug is the camera preview format has weird colours (just like what we have in recovery, blues look orange and all that). Anyway,

Ah GT-S5283 is qcom, I just saw it in download when searching opensource.samsung.

mfserial looks like code for AT/UART for baseband.
Samsung has it disabled cause it wrote their own mfserial.
Yup I checked the RIL implementation in stock. I havent had time to fully reverse eng the stuffs. But heres what I found.

Check the last blocks of code in stock 'init.sp8810.rc' , you see the #datarouter. Thats where the RIL is.
The DR,SMD,DTT,BCS,mobex daemon are responsible for parsing the raw UART, setting up CSC and sending data to framework.

So first try adding those and see.

And if that doesnt work they are using broadcasts to these apps, so you might need to hack on these.

com.sec.app.RilErrorNotifier
com.android.samsungtest.RilDTTCommand

Well, adding those surely did 'something' to RIL. Well things went worse, but atleast now we know they are related to RIL.
Like, initially, sim0 radio was off, but sim1 radio was out of service, now both are off.

Anyways, I was comparing the radio logs of stock and cm11, let's take IMEI for instance, and see how it looks like :
Stock:
Code:
D/[B]RILC[/B]    (  102): [0021]< GET_IMEI [COLOR="SeaGreen"]{35**************}[/COLOR]

D/RIL     (  102): put Channel ID '4'

I/RILC    (  102): -->CommandThread [1020] free one command

D/RILJ    (  823): [rild1] [0021]< GET_IMEI

And in CM11:
Code:
D/use-Rlog/RLOG-[B]RILC[/B](   92): [0023]< GET_IMEI [COLOR="Red"]fails by E_GENERIC_FAILURE[/COLOR]

Any ideas?
We are using SamsungBCMRIL (which is the extension of AOSP RIL itself) in the framework side. PS : That RIL class is fix for dialing, manual network mode etc, basic stuff like signals and imei should work with default setup.
And we are using all the ril blobs from stock ROM

Also, the have you checked the following scripts?
ext_data.sh
ext_kill.sh

They override props by getting original props using getprop, but when I try getprop in terminal emulator, nothing is returned o_O

Edit : @psych.half
After a bit more debugging, I found the reason why IMEI detection fails, radio fails to turn on etc.
it is due to the fact that, respective AT Commands are failing, not all commands fail, but critical commands fail :crying:
Here's how AT commands are handled in stock:
Code:
D/AT      (  102): Channel4: AT> AT+CGSN

[COLOR="SeaGreen"]D/AT      (  102): Channel4: AT< 35**************

D/AT      (  102): Channel4: AT< OK

D/RILC    (  102): [0021]< GET_IMEI {35**************}[/COLOR]
And in CM11 :
Code:
D/use-Rlog/RLOG-AT(   92): Channel4: AT> AT+CGSN

[COLOR="Red"]D/use-Rlog/RLOG-AT(   91): Channel2: AT< ERROR[/COLOR]

So any ideas? How ATs are parsed?
All we can do is in framework level, and add/remove blobs. We can't do anything with ril blobs.

On closer inscpection the datarouter is for another functionality. You know in stock ROM we can use select which SIM to use mobile data from.

Afaik, BCMRil is for Broadcom ones Spreadtrum doesnt seem to need a seperate RIL class

So maybe we need to take libreference-ril.so and libril_sprd.so from another sprd which doesnt depend on samsung's stuff. Samsung made a lot of modification on libril on this one.. Heck there isnt even telephony framework, ril is handled by its own apps..

Update @corphish
after some log digging, AT commamds are handled by at_distributor.. but it only setups socket... and executes "am broadcast com.sec.atd.request_reconnect"..
Yup its handled by samsung's own app

Alright!
RIL is connected though. Never had that problem of it failing to connect.
So what's the next thing we should do? Try adding apps from stock?

    F.A.Q

    Q. I have faced some issues, which is not mentioned in the 'Not Working' list........?
    A. For bug reports, the least we can expect from you is a logcat taken during the issue. Or atleast, you could tell us how and when did you face the bug, how can we reproduce the bug to fix it. Reports without any of these will be ignored.

    Q. I got a status 7 error when flashing the CM11 zip...? / My device is stuck at boot logo after flashing CM11...?
    A. Please use the recovery that is mentioned in the downloads section. It is recommended to use TWRP as it is known working for all.

    Q. I put the ROM zip in internal memory while I was in stock ROM, but when I go to TWRP and try to flash it, the zip is not there, help!
    A. TWRP uses psych.half's storage hack that he did in CM10.1. You will need to mount /data (its generally done by default), and then go to /data/media and there you can find the zip.

    Q. I successfully flashed CM11, but all my data in internal memory is gone!
    A. It hasn't, you can still find them in /data/media.

    Q. Can you add XYZ feature to the ROM?
    A. No!

    Q. Can I use your ROM/any part of ROM and modify it and release it separately?
    A. Yes you can. But please mention proper credits.

    Q. I flashed this ROM, but I dont find any Google App, where can I find it?
    A. Flash gapps mentioned in OP.

    Q. Are any 3rd party utilities/kernels/themes/mods supported?
    A. No, not yet. If they are supported, it will be clearly mentioned in their respective threads.

    Q. If no mods are supported, how can we customize our experience?
    A. This is CyanogenMod, a completely different ROM from stock. As of now, no kernels are supported, but you can customize the looks using CM11's highly customizable theme engine.

    Bug reporting
    How to report a bug?
    • First off all, check the 'not working' list and see if the bug you are facing is already mentioned or not. If it is, stop right away because the concerned people working on the ROM are aware of the issue.
    • If the bug/issue is not mentioned in 'not working' list, check the Frequently Asked Question (F.A.Q) and see if issue is resolved already.
    • If the issue you face is not in FAQ either, you would probably post a reply in this forum, and not PM anyone, about the bug.
      • Attach a logcat.
      • If not possible, mention a proper way how you encountered the bug.
      • Also mention any 3rd party stuff you installed. (Like mods, themes, kernels etc)

    Following things WILL NOT be considered as bugs. So please do not post such bug reports, they will be ignored.
    • Low benchmark scores. Even if Stock results better.
    • Poor performance in gaming. Even if Stock results better.
    • High RAM usage/low RAM available.
    • Various kernel control app crashes.
    • Crashes of various UI elements when a custom theme/mod is applied.
    • Random reboots, and other issues caused by flashing custom kernel.

    Status Update

    We have been working, and... :
    • Audio -Its fixed, both audio from speakers and headphones.
    • HWComposer -Its fixed too, patches to libbinder worked.
    • Camera - Umm, its broken. Problem is, I expected Camera to be fixed by patching libbinder, but it didn't, camera HAL was not loading at all. I eventually got the HAL to load, but it would then cause various system instabilities, so its still broken.
    • Microphone - Well, microphone does listen to when any respective app is started, but won't record anything (unlike last time, where it won't listen and start recording at all).
    • RIL - Well, that's really a tough one to fix.
    • Random Reboots and Freezes - Random reboots are gone, but freezes (caused due to EGL issues) still persists.

    P.S : Sources are constantly being updated, patches will only be released after a next release is made. As of the current released build (Alpha 1), not much patches are used, except for those which are mentioned in the device tree.
