LineageOS13-port-R1-HD (camera-mostly- works)

[mrmazak]

Should I redownload and flash 5.2? Was there a recent update made? I got an alert and I see a date of 11-02 for the latest update but I'm not sure what it is. Thanks.

No,

I just had to edit the OP. I had a link in there to rom this was ported from. And that link was to "needrom" , and appaerently it is not allowed to link to needrom

Is this ROM more stable or at least better than the stock ROM?
With regard to the kernel, does not have any type of retouching or overclock?
And the battery?

Sorry so many questions

Really dont have much opinion on it.

I have not used this phone is a while.

There is none of the spy programs hiding from BLU in this one (just the ones from google, LOL)

Anyone knows why it failed?
My BLU currently installed TWRP 3.1.1. version and LineageOS 14(no camera works).
I tried to flash V5.2 ROM, but keep fail. Re-download and tried to flash, but again failed.

yes. thats because the recovery you are using. and the mount point used in the install script.

I just went through this for these different recoveries on this forrum. some ported some built . any way

you can open the zip file up and make changes to the file

here is the path inside the zip.

\MATA-INF\com\google\android\upadater-script

Change the lines that has this:

format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/by-name/system", "0", "/system");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/by-name/system", "/system", "max_batch_time=0,commit=1,data=ordered,barrier=1,errors=panic,nodelalloc");

To this

format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p20", "0", "/system");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p20", "/system", "max_batch_time=0,commit=1,data=ordered,barrier=1,errors=panic,nodelalloc");

And then at bottom also change these lines

package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/by-name/boot");

To this

package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p7");

Those changes will make this work in all (5 i think) of the recoveries on this forum.
If that sounds to difficult you could flash the ported 3.1.1 recovery (it is linked in the OP of this thread). That is the one I was using when I made and tested these LM13 port installs.

I re-flashed TWRP in the OP.
It works. Thanks.

Frustrations with LineageOS

While I happen to have a TWRP enabled R1 HD, I'm getting extremely frustrated. I'm using the LineageOS 13 Rom, and have gotten no updates for KRACK. Everyone is moving back to the Bootloader Unlocked Stock Rom versions, and the Camera still doesn't work under LineageOS 14.1. I'm probably going to give up soon and move to another device from Le Eco, or something that is easier to support.

I'd be willing to stay with LineageOS 13.x longer if I could get patches for KRACK. I lack the development resources to build my own Roms.

This ROM is dead.

404 on the github.

Admin please close the thread.

Your right i should remove the link to github, but it is a ported rom, not a build. So GitHub was only where i was tracking changes made (swapped files). There was no build trees anyway.

Thanks for the update, the link is working now.

I have an amazon r1 hd running an v8.4 rom with ads removed. I have twrp installed and am rooted but i want to try this rom out. Can i just wipe system/data and flash it with gapps or does it matter which version i am on before flashing? I want to make sure because this isn't like my pixel 2 where nothing really matters when it comes to flashing and recovering from a bad flash is easy.

 

[Darkyputz]

Soooo...
I installed this v5.2 now on my phone and it solved me a few issues, but mostly the WLAN is back up and reliable...
Camera works just fine...besides the video function, but hey...i rather have WLAN then video capture...
So thx to everyone for this awesome build...
As a small tip, i had to get the nano gapps since with stock i got the pixel loader failing every time...
But now i am up, happy again with my phone...best 52 bucks spent so far @joedajoester
I cleaned/wiped data, davlik,cache and system...after i backed all up to make sure i have a way back
I also had to unpack the recommended trwp 3.11 since the installer did not like the zip file, but with the img file it worked like a charm

Hello.

While I realize development has ended, perhaps someone has a solution to the problem I'm experiencing with this ROM. Video playback in web browsers is messed up, kind of like scrambled/copy protected video from the old days of analog cable TV. It doesn't matter what web browser is used. It doesn't affect everything. For example, videos hosted on YouTube exhibit this behavior while those hosted on Vimeo do not. The actual YouTube app works just fine.

Anyone have any ideas?

I am trying to download this rom but can't find any download links?

I think there's a magisk module for disabling DRM or reworking it or something. I don't have this ROM anymore so I can't test for myself but if you can find it in magisk manager give it a try

I do want to say this too, even though this phone's pretty much dead I can't believe all the attention it got over the years and how it held on for as long as it did

Background (not needed, feel free to skip):
Well, it turns out that no mods or different libraries are needed. I finally figured out that the problem was only related to VP9 decoding. After much searching I found that the MTK VP9 decode library is buggy and some had discussed if there were ways to disable it so that the media library would default back to the Google back end. There was some discussion about deleting references in XML files. Whatever ROM that was for didn't have the files in the same place as CM 13. I did some searching and found two files, commented some stuff out, rebooted, and everything works well.

Solution:
You will need root to be able to edit the files. After saving your changes, you will need to reboot.

Edit /system/etc/media_codecs_mediatek_video.xml and comment (surround with <!-- and -->) or delete the block:
<MediaCodec name="OMX.MTK.VIDEO.DECODER.VP9" type="video/x-vnd.on2.vp9" >
<Limit name="size" min="16x16" max="1280x720" />
<Quirk name="requires-allocate-on-input-ports" />
<Quirk name="requires-allocate-on-output-ports" />
<Feature name="adaptive-playback"/>
<Limit name="concurrent-instances" max="8" />
</MediaCodec>

Edit /system/etc/media_codecs_performance.xml and comment or delete the block:
<MediaCodec name="OMX.MTK.VIDEO.DECODER.VP9" type="video/x-vnd.on2.vp9" update="true">
<Limit name="measured-frame-rate-320x240" range="100-200" />
<Limit name="measured-frame-rate-640x360" range="100-200" />

Here you go. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1wf-5-eJgY0bSqul3_Z68CEB-0ghDjuGM/view?usp=sharing

Thoughts:
Don't forget to make the edits from my previous post so videos play correctly.

Via a kernel manager (like SmartPack) I find that turning on "Schedule workqueues on awake CPUs to save power" and setting I/O "Read-ahead" memory to 384kB - 512kB makes for a smoother experience.

I was never able to get MicroG to fully work. OpenGApps nano works fine.

Netflix doesn't like the ROM even if you have root disabled in Developer Options. Maybe Magisk with its hide option will work. I don't use it enough on my phone to care. Versions less than 5.0 don't care about root and still connect to Netflix's server just fine.

Versions 10.x to 10.62.0 of Google Maps will crash when starting navigation. The recent updates seem to work fine.
