[NotBooting][Dev]TekROM - D850 - Stock 20f - Lollipop - Deodex/Root/Busybox

[TekGadgt]

NEW THINGS ARE COMING. KEEP AN EYE OUT.​

Hello!

I have taken the system.img and boot.img from the flashable zip for 20f that @autoprime made and made a ROM base. It is prerooted, deodexed, has busybox, and has support for ArchiDroid Init.d (basically Init.d found in the ROM, not the kernel). It should be ready to flash as is, but a more experienced dev may want to look through my updater-script. It was created using ArchiKitchen (Busybox and ArchiDroid Init.d) and JoelDroid Batch Deodexer (Deodex system apps, priv-apps, and framework). Please flash with caution. I believe everything is kosher, but I haven't attempted to flash it myself. Just like with autoprime's flashable zip, please flash the modem before flashing this if you are upgrading from KitKat. Feel free to use this as your ROM base, just give me credit if you use it.

It's been pointed out to me that I didn't mention whether it was debloated or not. I ran the archi and romcleaner debloat scripts found in ArchiKitchen on it. I am not sure if this wiped the at&t specific apps or not. I also believe Carrier IQ is still enabled. I wasn't sure how to clean Carrier IQ out.

The Q&A thread is here. Not sure why it isn't accessible from the bar at the top like usual.

Instructions for flashing:
REMEMBER TO MAKE A BACKUP!
1a. If coming for KitKat or AOSP Lollipop ROM, wipe data/facory reset and wipe system.
1b. If already on stock Lollipop, dirty flash SHOULD be ok.
2. Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache (optional).
3. If coming from KitKat, flash updated modem for 20f.
4. Flash ROM.
5. Rewipe Cache and Dalvik Cache (optional).
6. Reboot to system.

To fix issues with xposed, after flashing the xposed zip, download and flash the zip here to stop the Force closes. Alternatively you can freeze quick circle and the weather widget apps prior to flashing xposed.

Looking for anyone that has some dev experience and might want to work on this with me. Just PM me if interested.

Also, if anyone tests this before I get a chance to. Would you please report back here? and if it boots fine, please PM me screenshots to add to the database.

Is it a debloated stock?

I ran the ArchiKitchen debloat scripts on it, but I'm not sure what all it killed off. I completely forgot to check that. Sorry. Will make a note on the OP.

Not really. I'm not a true dev per say. I just set this up as a base for other devs to use. got the basic stuff out of the way. As I mentioned in the OP. I haven't flashed this yet, so exercise caution when flashing. Everything should be fine, but it does include the boot.img, so if everything isn't proper, it may be bad. Either way, if you decide to flash, please make a backup before and keep the KitKat restore file readily available.

Well good work anywyas, though im not going to flash till some one tries it out first. I dont want to go through headaches if it doesnt flash correctly. Also Im glad we have a new developer, just keep learning and add great stuff to this rom if u figure out. Good luck

I've been around for a while now. Attempted several large projects, but usually ran out of time. As such, I generally only deodex and such for other devs to use, but if I can find the time, I will definitely try to expand this. I will also post a truly debloated version at some point. I might attempt to flash it soon. It only affects system and boot.img, so if the boot.img is set to extract to the proper block (I checked against my own D850 for the proper mount block), everything should go fine.

I did warn that it was untested and that I would prefer if someone checked through my stuff first. I will look in to fixing the issues as soon as I can. Any way someone can get a Logcat?

 

[derekedw]

Sounds like a boot image issue.

TekGadgt. Thanks for doing this. I look forward to a working release.

This same issue happened when folks with a custom recovery tried to take the ota for Stock Lollipop. I wonder if the same fix for that will work here.

That's odd and somewhat unlikely, since I flashed the exact same one from autoprimes system.img and boot.img. Did everyone that flashed upload their modem as well? And did everyone wipe properly?

I gave this a shot and it did hang at the LG logo with blinking l.e.d. a little longer, but still returned to recovery
