[ROM] [5.0.2] Official CyanogenMod 12 for Desire 816

[l.m.prowse]

That's not true at all. Screen casting is simply sharing the phone's display through WiFi. It takes no special hardware or anything that would make it be phone specific. The Nexus 4 can do it on Lollipop and that device was released before the Chromecast ever existed.

Yeah, google enables it to work, its written in the Chromecast app, unless you find some third party way of doing it

Chromecast app? A Chromecast app isn't required to to use a Chromecast. Also the Nexus 4 was one example because it's the only device older than the Chromecast (that I can think of) that has an official LP update. It also works on plenty of non Google phones that predate the Chromecast.

Check the link I posted, it lists the supported devices

I don't see a link.

Edit: That's for the app. You do NOT need an the Chromecast app to use screencast in Lollipop. It's built in. This is a bug in the ROM and has nothing to do with being a supported device.

It doesn't work on my moto x or moto g (both 2014 updated to 5.0 officially) the button is there but doesn't work, it uses the same principles as the app, its not enabled Chromecast side, so it won't work without third party software

hey is indian carrier network issue resolved in newsest built 11/25 ??? plzz reply

Yep network does work, but the signal strength though is rather weak. And one more thing network only works only if you do a dirty flash. I'm using the 11/25 build now, calls and data are working properly. The only problem is with the camera, it keeps on hunting for focus for a while but not a big problem for me.

awesome rom ever

Hi Grarak and v_superuser,
Thank you very much for your great ROM. This ROM is the best than I ever try. Maybe part of reason is the great improvement from 4.4 to 5.0 itself. However, you guys really doing great job.

From the very beginning, nothing work except screen on. In half month, you guys fixed many problem and make almost everything work.

Previously, I have some issues which want to report also. However, you guys just fixed it before I wrote out. for example, the document (down) crash, close all activity option etc. My friends who use nexus 5 still do not have option to reboot the phone from power menu and you just added it. How great you are.

By the way, I already make this as my daily ROM and I am sure it will be the only one from now. If the following thing solve, this Rom will be perfect.
1. Audio: music pause from time to time, you need to click play
2. camera: the focus seems have some problem. the photo is bur or not that good quality as stock.
3. Flashlight: when click the flashlight on from pull down menu, the camera seems switch on at the same time (as i hear the focus sound)
4. Wi-Fi: after some time, the wi-fi icon will have ! next to the icon but internet work. when i reboot, the ! icon will then disappear.
5. Battery percentage: is it possible to show battery percentage on the icon or next to it all the time

Thank you very much for your great work again.

concerning the camera, dont expect big improvements. Cyanogen rom is very bad for quality pics. HTC drivers arent included so you will always have some dirty quality with it...
same for boomsound drivers

known issue on many CM roms

Camera access privilege related, if you read on google

Just flash the ROM without wiping data, wipe cache and dalvik cache. And don't use the 11/26 build coz the camera and network doesn't work in that build.
