Now upgraded to daily driver!
I don't expect any serious issues with this now, and will call it stable.

Not working: LiveDisplay, themes, you tell me with logs
Root no longer built in with Lineage OS. Use SuperSU
Works: NFC, Wifi, BT, tether, rotation, root, sound, video, MTP, GPS/network location, calls, mobile data, MMS, SMS messages, still camera, videocamera, flashlight, ?

File manager root functions working on 12-28-2016 build.
Also includes microg signature spoofing.
60 step volume control
Pixel home button animation from CypherOS
Use nanomod for microg if you want.
I can't test on dwg/dug but there's a build up for you anyway.

Flash with twrp for htc a5 from twrp.me use 3.0.2 or it may bootloop.

for clean flash, wipe>advanced wipe>system, cache, and data
if wifi and or bluetooth go funny on first boot, reboot a time or two and it should settle down.
seems to dirty flash nicely. wipe dalvik cache and cache. Be aware that dirty flashes may cause weird little glitches you can avoid with a clean flash then setting it all up from scratch.

Then flash rom.

If you had gapps and dirty flashed, be sure to flash arm-7.1 gapps before rebooting. If you're using microg, you shouldn't need to copy anything into /system, that set of gapps installs just fine as user apps, and should survive a dirty flash.

ROM folder link in post 2.
Download the md5sum file with the rom so twrp can verify it isn't corrupted before flashing.

for those having issues with boot reverting to fastboot from corrupted /data partitions who do not want to format /data to fix it; (single SIM version. If you need a dual SIM version pm me and I'll build/upload one.)
attached here on this post, unpack boot.img from non-flashable zip file.
Back up your boot.img with trwp before flashing.
flash by fastboot or recovery, for latest ROM release with the errors=panic flag set in the fstab.

Hi bigsupersquid,

My phone is dual sim a5_dug. I used open_gapps-arm-7.0-aroma-20160925.zip

Works : wireless, bluetooth, rotation, fm radio, root, location (tested with maps)

No : Phone calls, mobile data, camera, sd-card

 

[bigsupersquid]

New build uploading
Phone still broken but MMS and mobile data working on chl once the ril randomly starts up

A5_Dug

Its great to hear that first Alpha released.. Thanks buddy..hope we will get a cell working version soon...

 

[ajones23]

This looks very promising. Great progress,thanks @bigsupersqiud.

 

[frank9184]

First I wanna say this ROM is amazing
no mobile data ,phone call , camera ,ROOT work on my a5 ul. I've got my carrier name and APN by the phone itself,but no mobile data.

SD card worked for me !!

Check it out

BTY,How can I do to let my official filpcase worked on cyanogen

Root works but cm14 file manager is known to have issues with root.
You might try other apps that need root. Connectbot or built in terminal work fine with su, for example.
Definitely no phone calls, incoming or outgoing calls both cause soft reboots.
Mobile data works on my chl... When the ril actually starts up. Until then, no sim it says. Only on the second release, though. First release, no data even when ril is running.
You can try entering your apn in cellular network settings maybe, but not until it shows a cell signal.
There's a hidden framework file with APNs, I didn't get data until I fixed it. Post your complete apn and carrier and I'll see if it needs added.

I will dig it at framework.apk later .
Besides ,how can I do to let my official filpcase worked on cyanogen? Use dotmatrix.apk on stock ROM ?

You could try the apk from stock on the same cm android version (5.0 to cm12, 6.0 to cm13) and see if it works. Think the Hall sensor (magnet sensor) isn't getting registered properly as an input device though, log says it's a keypad instead.

Decompiling framework may not be feasible yet unless small/baksmali are updated for N. I don't know if they are or not. I build the file in instead.
If you can post your carrier MCCMNC it'll help me debug that. Virgin mobile us is 311490, sprint us is 310120 or 31000.
You can find it in your log on cm12 or cm13 in adb while it's running and connected to data...

logcat -db all | grep -i apn

Should give a big spammy list of APNs being tried and used by the system.

Or the /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db from cm13 with data connected, has the info I need in it as well

logcat -db all | grep -i apn

P.S.I don't know which site is better for me to paste the log .So I using the site which is searched by Google

And the dB
http://www.mediafire.com/download/kc5wsus34ag3qbz/telephony_-_副本.db

I don't know why attach file is broke with cyanogen mod 13 broswer

AFAIK, magnet sensor don't work on any cyanogen build ,even place dot matrix.apk which is let stock ROM magnet worked

Wonder if they used @mickybart 's lovely ril.
I found it skimming XDA Sony forum I think.
9/27 release uploading, can make and receive calls once the dang ril kicks in. Still APN glitches for non sprint/virgin mobile.

Will it work on a5dwg too???
A5dwg is getting very less support.
Even the 3g 2g selection is not get solved on cm13 over 5 months... Hope that bug will not continue in 7.0

Keep up the good work...I will flash it on a5dwg tomorrow and let you know the results

I dunno but the same ril worked in cm13 for ul and dwg.
I'd be happy to extend support if someone wants to send a dwg or dug to make immediate tests with.
Otherwise it just gets the same changes as the chl/ul. //edit: sometimes I grab m8d changes for dual sim to test as well... Not always though. Really need one in hand to test with. A lot of builds don't get uploaded cause they test bad somewhere. Takes hours to upload a build and they fail uploading partway through often.

yeah, ril is pretty messed up, sometimes doesn't turn on for whole reboot on mine, sometimes pops on within a few minutes. random and unpredictable
