XenonHD ROM for Galaxy Grand Prime VE 3G


Code: 
#include <std_disclaimer.h>
/*
 * Your warranty is now void.
 *
 * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
 * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
 * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
 * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
 * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
 *
 */

XenonHD is a custom firmware aka ROM for various Android devices. It is built from CyanogenMod 14.1 with additional features, performance and battery life improvements.

The idea behind XenonHD is to give users a ROM that is "blazing fast, rock stable and buttery smooth".

It's Rock Stable, Blazing Fast.
and now Buttery Smooth too!

We'll not support users and answer questions from users which:
  • are running a custom kernel
  • have flashed mods
  • modified system files
  • didn't follow our intructions word by word
  • are unfriendly
  • And most important: DON'T READ THE OP


BUGS/Not working :
  • Same as Lineage OS 15.1

[NOTE]:
  • If you couldn't take screenshots, go to /system/vendor/lib/hw, make a backup of [email protected] somewhere else, then delete it from this folder
  • The camera preview will freeze and you can't capture or record after this. To restore original camera function (but will derp screenshot again), restore the backed up [email protected] again to /system/vendor/lib/hw

First time installing XenonHD to your Galaxy Grand Prime, or coming from another ROM?
  • Install latest TWRP Recovery MUST USE VERSION 3.2.2-0 OR ASSERT ERROR OCCURS
  • Reboot into Recovery using 3-button-combo (Vol-up+Home+Power)
  • Do a Nandroid backup! (Optional and only if you weren't running TouchWiz before)
  • WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition + format /system partition)*
  • Install the ROM from sdcard using TWRP Recovery
  • Optionally install the Google Apps ( get it here: https://opengapps.org ) (pico GAPPS recommended) (*)

[NOTE]:
  • If you're about going to install GAPPS with ROM, install it right after you've installed the ROM, else you have to do a factory reset if you've booted the ROM first

FAQ

Q: ETAs?
A: See here: Link

Q: Anymore models supported?
A: Just SM-G531BT and SM-G531H

Q: Is init.d supported on this ROM?
A: Every LineageOS/CyanogenMod ROMs support init.d, so be free at scriptings

Q: Can you include ABCXYZ feature / Samsung Apps here?
A: NO!

Q: Can I use your ROM as a base for portings?
A: Yes, and mention this thread

Q: Server error in Google Play Store?
A: Install latest Google Play Services manually first (might take long time, due to Lollipop's nature), then you can install apps from GG Play as usual

Q: How to use adoptable storage feature? I see it's new in Marshmallow
A: Go to Settings >> Storage & USB >> Tap on the SD card label (not the eject icon) >> 3 dots menu on the top right >> Settings >> Format as internal and done!

Q: Where's the MTP option? I don't see it in Storage settings
A: This feature has been moved to Developer settings, and will reset to default (Charging) after every reboots. Enable developer options first by tapping 7 times on Build number in About phone section >> Go to Developer settings >> Select USB configuration. The fastest way to do this is plug in your USB with your PC, scroll down notification bar and tap on "USB for Charging"

Q: Where's the "running" section in Apps settings?
A: It has been cut off separately to Memory setting and "Running services" in Developer settings. You can see the memory used by apps for a period of time and closing apps too, but they won't disappear in the menu, and in "Running services", still same as old-fashioned running apps section

Q: Can't install GAPPS or ROM?
A: Install latest TWRP

CHANGELOG

(DD-MM-YYYY)

06-08-2018
ALPHA-1: Initial release of XenonHD 8.1

14-08-2018
ALPHA-2: Fixed the following bugs:
  • Sometimes in status bar Time is delayed but does not affect alarms (go to Settings -> System -> Status bar and turn on "Show seconds" to fix.. useful and almost 0 impact on battery life)
  • Multiple clocks in statusbar for first boot (go to Settings -> System -> Status bar and change "Clock position" to the area(s) where you don't want it to be and then back to the area where you want it; you do not have to continue doing this every reboot as it only does this on first boot)

Did you flash Magisk?

I can not install any apk or playstore is not installing apps some help
Click to expand...
Magisk derps package installer and therefore you cannot install any apps.. Re-flash the ROM and use SuperSU instead. If you did not flash Magisk and cannot install .apk files from stock file manager.. Use an external file manager such as ES File Explorer

I have a problem, install Havoc Rom, but it does not recognize my microSD, that is if it appears but when I try to manage nothing appears, I thought it was something of the rom so I changed to the Xenon Rom but I did not recognize it either, before I used one of 32gb now I use a 64 gb one no longer recognizes me, someone knows how to fix it?
